Example; Change Orders. For example, if Tenant requests any change, addition or alteration in or to the Space Plan, Approved Working Drawings or Construction Documents (each, a “Tenant Change Order”), the requested change in the Tenant Change Order shall be considered Non-Conforming Tenant Improvements. If Landlord believes such Tenant Change Order # is reasonable, # will not materially detract from the value of the Project and # will not impact the Building's structure, systems or future marketability, Landlord shall cause the Architect to prepare additional plans implementing such Tenant Change Order. Tenant shall pay the Architect’s cost of preparing such additional plans within ten days after receipt of Landlord’s invoice therefor. As soon as practicable after the completion of such additional plans, Landlord shall notify Tenant of the estimated cost of the applicable Tenant Change Order (the “Change Cost”). Within three business days after receipt of the Change Cost, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant approves the Change Cost. If Tenant fails to approve the Change Cost within such three-business day period, Landlord shall not perform the requested work, and construction of the Tenant Improvements shall proceed as provided in accordance with the Construction Documents. If Tenant approves the Change Cost, Landlord shall proceed with the Tenant Change Order, at Tenant’s expense. Tenant pay for the Change Cost by remitting a payment of fifty percent (50)% of the Change Cost to Landlord before Landlord proceeds with the Tenant Change Order. Tenant shall pay twenty five percent (25%) of the Change Cost when the work is half completed, and the remaining twenty five percent (25%) upon completion of the change.

Section # Change Orders. If after the Construction Plans have been approved (or deemed approved), Tenant requests any revisions to the Approved Construction Plans and Landlord approves the revisions, Landlord shall cause Architect to revise the Construction Plans. After completion of the revisions, Landlord shall obtain from Landlord’s contractor and deliver to Tenant # an itemization of the increased cost (if any) in the Landlord’s Work resulting from such revisions to the Construction Plans, and # a reasonable estimate of the delay (if any) in the completion of the Landlord’s Work resulting from such revisions to the Construction Plans. Tenant, within three (3) business days of receiving such itemization, shall notify Landlord in writing whether it desires to proceed with such revisions. In the absence of such written authorization, Landlord shall have the option to continue work on the Premises disregarding the requested revisions. Any actual delay in completion of Landlord’s Work resulting from any revision or requested revision to the Construction Plans shall be deemed a Tenant Delay. If such revisions result in an increase in the cost of the Landlord’s Work in accordance with the foregoing, such increased costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon (collectively, the “Change Order Costs”), shall be payable by Tenant upon Landlord’s presentation of invoices therefor and as a condition to Landlord performing such Change Orders. In the event the Landlord performs any Change Orders before receiving payment from Tenant, and if Tenant fails to pay for the Change Order Costs within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s written demand (including reasonable backup for such Change Order Costs), then such Change Order Costs shall accrue interest at the Default Rate (as hereinafter defined) from the expiration of such thirty (30) day period until the date paid. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all revisions to the Construction Plans shall be subject to the prior approval of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. As used herein, “Change Orders” mean, collectively, any requested revisions to the Construction Plans and, if approved, corresponding changes to the Landlord’s Work, as applicable.

In the event that Tenant requests any change to the Tenant Improvements (“Change”), and Landlord so approves such Change as provided in the paragraph next below, Landlord shall advise Tenant by written change order as soon as is practical of any increase in the cost to complete (“Completion Cost”) the Tenant Improvement work that such Change would cause. Tenant shall approve or disapprove such change order, if any, in writing within 2 days following Tenant’s receipt of such change order. If Tenant approves any such change order, Landlord, at its election, may either (i) require as a condition to the effectiveness of such change order that Tenant pay the increase in the “Completion Cost” to the Tenant Improvement work attributable to such change order concurrently with delivery of Tenant’s approval of the change order, or (ii) defer Tenant’s payment of such increase until the date 10 days after delivery of invoices for same, provided however, that the increase in the Completion Cost must in any event be paid in full prior to Tenant’s commencing occupancy of the Premises. The increase in the Completion Cost may be paid using the Moving Allowance. If Tenant disapproves any such change order, Tenant shall nonetheless be responsible for the reasonable architectural and/or planning fees incurred in preparing such change order. Landlord shall have no obligation to interrupt or modify the Tenant Improvement work pending Tenant's approval of a change order, but if Tenant fails to timely approve a change order, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) suspend the applicable Tenant Improvement work, in which event any related delays because of such suspension shall constitute “Tenant Delays” hereunder.

Tenant may elect to propose Tenant Change Orders to the Approved Plans by written request to Landlord from time to time prior to Substantial Completion of the respective component of Landlord’s Work. Each proposed Tenant Change Order shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If a proposed Tenant Change Order is determined by Landlord in its reasonable discretion to be likely to increase the Landlord’s Work Costs and/or to delay the performance of the Landlord’s Work, then Landlord shall provide Tenant with its good faith estimate of the increase in Landlord’s Work Costs and/or the delay in the performance of Landlord’s Work resulting therefrom, and within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice from Landlord, Tenant shall notify Landlord as to whether Tenant has elected to proceed with or to withdraw the proposed Tenant Change Order. If Tenant fails to notify Landlord within said five (5) Business Day period then Tenant shall be considered to have elected to proceed with the ​ Certain information in this document has been omitted from this exhibit because it is both # not material and # would be competitively harmful if publicly disclosed.

If Tenant shall desire any Change Order after approval of the Plans by Landlord, Tenant shall submit a detailed written request or revised Plans to Landlord for approval. If reasonable and practicable and consistent with the Plans theretofore approved, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition, or delay approval of the Change Order. All costs in connection therewith, including, without limitation, construction costs, permit fees, and preparation or review of any additional Plans or other studies or tests, or revisions of such existing items, shall be included in the Tenant Improvement Costs.

Change Orders. The Specifications define the entire scope of Landlord's obligation to construct or provide the Landlord Improvements. Tenant shall not be entitled to specify or designate any finishes, grades of materials, or other specifications or details of the construction of the Landlord Improvements which are not specifically provided for in or contemplated by the Specifications unless requested to do so by Landlord. Subject to this paragraph, however, Landlord shall make additions or changes to the Specifications requested by Tenant. If Tenant shall desire any such changes, Tenant shall so advise Landlord in writing (a “Change Order Request”) as promptly as possible so as not to delay the orderly development of the Final Plans. All reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in having any Change Order Request reviewed and evaluated shall be reimbursed by Tenant upon demand. Such costs shall include, but not be limited to, the reasonable costs of architects, engineers, and consultants in reviewing and designing any such changes and the cost of contractors in providing cost estimates and constructability, functionality and product availability analyses.

Upon agreement between Landlord and Tenant on the change that will be incorporated into the Final Plans and Landlord Improvements as a result of a Change Order Request, and the cost of such change, the Landlord and Tenant shall execute a change order (a “Change Order”) setting forth the parties' agreement as to such terms. Payment of the Change Order cost shall be due from Tenant within 30 days of the mutual execution of the Change Order.

Changes. If Tenant shall request any change, addition or alteration in any of the Plans after approval by Landlord (“Changes”), Landlord shall have such revisions to the drawings prepared. Promptly upon completion of the revisions, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the increased cost, if any, which will be chargeable to Tenant by reason of such change, addition or deletion. Tenant, within three (3) business days, shall notify Landlord in writing whether it desires to proceed with such Change. In the absence of such written authorization, Landlord shall have the option to continue work on the Premises disregarding the requested Change.

In the event that Tenant requests any changes or additional work (“Changes”), then provided such Change is acceptable to Landlord, Landlord shall advise Tenant by written change order of any additional cost and/or Tenant Delay (as defined below) such change would cause. Tenant shall approve or disapprove such change order in writing within 3 business days following its receipt. Tenant's approval of a change order shall not be effective unless accompanied by payment in full of the additional cost of the Tenant Improvement work resulting from the change order.
