Landlord's Consent to Alterations. Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises or any mechanical, plumbing or HVAC facilities or systems pertaining to the Premises (collectively, the "Alterations") without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than ten (10) business days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by Landlord, provided it shall be deemed reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to any Alteration which adversely affects the structural portions or the systems or equipment of the Building or is visible from the exterior of the Building. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make Alterations following ten (10) business days' notice to Landlord (as to Alterations costing more than $10,000 only), but without Landlord's prior consent, to the extent that such Alterations # do not affect the building systems or equipment (other than minor changes such as adding or relocating electrical outlets and thermostats), # are not visible from the exterior of the Building, and # cost less than $100,000.00 for a particular job of work. The construction of the Tenant Improvements to the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Tenant Work Letter and not the terms of this Article 8.

Landlord's Consent. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice. Without limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply:

Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or improvements, other than the Tenant Improvements (which shall be subject to the Work Letter and not this Article 17, other than as expressly set forth in Section 17.7, 17.8, 17.9 and 17.12 below), in or to the Premises or engage in any construction, demolition, reconstruction, renovation or other work (whether major or minor) of any kind in, at or serving the Premises (“Alterations”) without Landlord’s prior written approval, which approval may be subject to the consent of one or more Lenders, if required under any applicable Loan Document, but which approval Landlord shall not otherwise unreasonably withhold, condition or delay; provided, however, that, in the event any proposed Alteration affects # any structural portions of the Building, including exterior walls, the roof, the foundation or slab, foundation or slab systems (including barriers and subslab systems) or the core of the Building, # the exterior of the Building or # any Building systems, including elevator, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, security, life safety and power, then Landlord may withhold its approval in its sole and absolute discretion. Tenant shall, in making any Alterations, use only those architects, contractors, suppliers and mechanics of which Landlord has given prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In seeking Landlord’s approval, Tenant shall prepare and provide to Landlord for approval schematics and a general plan covering the Alterations (the “Draft Development Plans”), which shall contain sufficient information and detail concerning the nature and cost of such Alterations as Landlord may reasonably request; provided that Tenant shall not commence any such Alterations that require Landlord’s consent unless and until Tenant has received the written approval of Landlord and any and all Lenders whose consent is required under any applicable Loan Document. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing within seven (7) business days after receipt of the Draft Development Plans whether Landlord approves or objects to the Draft Development Plans and of the manner, if any, in which the Draft Development Plans are unacceptable. Landlord’s failure to respond within such seven (7) business day period shall be deemed an approval by Landlord. If Landlord reasonably objects to the Draft Development Plans, then Tenant shall not proceed with the proposed Alterations unless Tenant revises the Draft Development Plans and causes Landlord’s objections to be remedied in the revised Draft Development Plans. Tenant shall then resubmit the revised Draft Development Plans to Landlord for approval. Landlord’s approval of or objection to revised Draft Development Plans and Tenant’s correction of the same shall be in accordance with this Section until Landlord has approved the Draft Development Plans in writing or been deemed to have approved them. The iteration of the Draft Development Plans that is approved or deemed approved by Landlord without objection shall be referred to herein as the “Approved Development Plans.” Tenant shall not proceed with the proposed Alteration unless Tenant then prepares final plans and specifications for the Alteration that are consistent with and are logical evolutions of the Approved Development Plans, including, without limitation, plans, specifications, bid proposals, certified stamped engineering drawings and calculations by Tenant’s engineer of record or architect of record (including connections to the Building’s structural system, modifications to the Building’s envelope, non-structural penetrations in slabs or walls, and modifications or tie-ins to life safety systems), work contracts, requests for laydown areas and such other information concerning the nature and cost of the Alterations as Landlord may reasonably request,. As soon as such final plans and specifications (“Alteration Plans”) are completed, Tenant shall deliver the same to Landlord for Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that Tenant shall not commence any such Alterations that require Landlord’s consent unless and until Tenant has received the written approval of Landlord of the Alteration Plans and any and all Lenders whose consent is required under any applicable Loan Document. In no event shall Tenant use or Landlord be required to approve any architects, consultants, contractors, subcontractors or material suppliers that Landlord reasonably believes could cause labor disharmony or may not have sufficient experience, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, to perform work in an occupied Class “A” laboratory research building and in tenant-occupied lab areas.

Alterations. Other than any alterations which constitute the Project, ’s prior approval shall be required in connection with any alterations to any Improvements # that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, # the cost of which (including any related alteration, improvement or replacement) is reasonably anticipated to exceed the Alteration Threshold, # that are structural in nature, which approval may be granted or withheld in ’s reasonable discretion, or # made during the continuance of an Event of Default (any of the foregoing, a “Material Alteration”). If the total unpaid amounts incurred and to be incurred with respect to any alterations to the Improvements from and after Completion of the Project shall at any time exceed the Alteration Threshold (unless the cost of such Material Alteration is eligible for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account, in which case shall be given a credit for amounts on deposit in the Replacement Reserve Account), shall promptly deliver to as security for the payment of such amounts and as additional security for ’s obligations under the Loan Documents any of the following: # cash, # a Letter of Credit acceptable to , # securities acceptable to , or # a completion bond acceptable to . Such security shall be in an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the excess of the total unpaid amounts incurred and to be incurred with respect to such alterations to the Improvements over the Alteration Threshold (such security, the “Alterations Security”). Upon substantial completion of any Material Alteration, # shall provide evidence satisfactory to that # the Material Alteration was constructed in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, # all contractors, subcontractors, materialmen and professionals who provided work, materials or services in connection with the Material Alteration have been paid in full and have delivered unconditional releases of liens, and # all material licenses and permits necessary for the use, operation and occupancy of the Material Alteration (other than those which depend on the performance of tenant improvement work) have been issued and # provided no Event of Default is then continuing, any remaining Alterations Security shall be promptly returned to . Prior to substantial completion of any Material Alteration, to the extent the Alterations Security shall exceed one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the excess of the total unpaid amounts incurred and to be incurred with respect to any such Material Alteration, shall be entitled to a release of such excess Alterations Security (e.g., the amount by which such Alterations Security exceeds one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the excess of the total unpaid amounts incurred and to be incurred with respect to any such Material Alteration) in accordance with [Section 7.4.2] hereof, applied mutatis mutandis.

ALTERATIONS. LESSEE parties shall not make structural alterations, additions, or improvements of any kind to the premises, but LESSEE may make nonstructural alterations, additions, or improvements with LESSOR’S prior written consent fallowed alterations”). All allowed alterations shall be at LESSEE’S expense and shall conform with LESSOR’S building standards and construction specifications or will be subject to restoration charges, If LESSOR or its agents provide(s) any services or maintenance in connection with allowed alterations and/or the review thereof, LESSEE will promptly pay any just invoice(s). LESSEE shall obtain, prior to the commencement of any work, a lien waiver from any contractor(s) performing work at the premises. LESSEE shall not permit mechanics’ liens or similar liens to remain upon the premises in connection with any work performed or claimed to have been performed at the direction of LESSEE and shall cause any such lien to be released or removed forthwith without cost to LESSOR. All allowed alterations shall become part of the premises and the property of LESSOR. LESSOR shall have the right at any time to make additions to the building, to change the arrangement of parking areas, stairs, or walkways, or otherwise to alter common areas or the exterior of the building. LESSEE shall move its furniture, furnishings, equipment, inventory, and other property as required by LESSOR to enable LESSOR to carry out the above-described work.

None of the Borrowers shall alter or cause or permit the alteration of any Improvements at any Property without the Agent’s prior Approval; provided, however, that if no Default has occurred and remains outstanding and if no Event of Default has occurred, such Approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed in connection with any alteration that # is not reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Change or an adverse effect of a material nature on the Net Cash Flow from the relevant Property, # complies with all Legal Requirements, including without limitation, Legal Requirements regarding environmental matters, landmarks and zoning, # is not reasonably likely to affect any structural component of the Improvements or the exterior of any building constituting a part of any Improvements or materially affect any utility or HVAC system contained in any Improvements, # have an aggregate cost, for all alterations pending or being actively pursued in respect of a Property at any time, of less than SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS AND ZERO CENTS ($750,000.00) and # have an aggregate cost, with respect to all the Properties undergoing alterations at any time, of less than five percent (5%) of the Outstanding Principal Balance (each of clauses (D) and (E), a “Major Alteration Threshold”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent may require that the Borrowers deliver additional security to the Agent for the Borrowers’ obligations under the Loan Documents as a condition to the Agent’s approval of any alteration that would exceed either Major Alteration Threshold.

Payment for Improvements. With respect to payments to be made to Tenant's contractors for any Alterations, Tenant shall # comply with Landlord's reasonable requirements for final lien releases and waivers in connection with Tenant's payment for work to contractors, and # cause Tenant's contractor to sign Landlord's standard contractor's rules and regulations. If Tenant orders any work directly from Landlord, in connection with all Alterations, Tenant shall pay Landlord an oversight fee equal to three percent (3%) of the hard costs of such work to compensate Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, fees, and other costs and expenses arising from Landlord's involvement in such work. In any event, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with such work.

In connection with any Alterations that affect the Building systems (other than minor changes such as adding or relocating electrical outlets and thermostats), or which have a cost in excess of $100,000, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with Landlord's review of such work.

Transfer of Landlord's Interest. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has the right to transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Project or Building and in this Lease, and Tenant agrees that in the event of any such transfer, Landlord shall automatically be released from all liability under this Lease and Tenant agrees to look solely to such transferee for the performance of Landlord's obligations hereunder accruing after the date of transfer provided such transferee shall have fully assumed and agreed in writing to be liable for all obligations of this Lease to be performed by Landlord, including the return of any security deposit or L-C, and Tenant shall attorn to such transferee.

Landlord's Option to Repair.

Notwithstanding the terms of Section 11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises, Building and/or Project, and instead terminate this Lease, by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of discovery of the damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant sixty (60) days to vacate the Premises, but Landlord may so elect only if the Building or Project shall be damaged by Casualty or cause, whether or not the Premises are affected, and one or more of the following conditions is present: # in Landlord's reasonable judgment, repairs cannot reasonably be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of discovery of the damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums); # the holder of any mortgage on the Building or Project or ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project shall require that the insurance proceeds or any portion thereof be used to retire the mortgage debt, or shall terminate the ground lease, as the case may be; # the damage is not fully covered by Landlord's insurance policies; # Landlord decides to rebuild the Building or Common Areas so that they will be substantially different structurally or architecturally; # the damage occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term; or # any owner of any other portion of the Project, other than Landlord, does not intend to repair the damage to such portion of the Project; provided, however, that if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Landlord's termination right as provided above, and the repairs cannot, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, be completed within one (1) year after being commenced, Tenant may elect, no earlier than sixty (60) days after the date of the damage and not later than ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord effective as of the date specified in the notice, which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given by Tenant.

If Tenant at any time desires any changes, alterations or additions to the Final TI Working Drawings, Tenant shall submit a detailed written request to Landlord specifying such changes, alterations or additions (a "Tenant Change Request"). Upon receipt of any such request, Landlord, within five (5) business days, shall promptly notify Tenant of # whether the matters proposed in the Tenant Change Request are approved by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Landlord), # Landlord's estimate of the number of days of delay, if any, which shall be caused in the construction of the Tenant Improvements by such Tenant Change Request if implemented (including, without limitation, delays due to the need to obtain any revised plans or drawings and any governmental approvals), and # Landlord's estimate of the increase, if any, which shall occur in the cost of design, permitting, project management and construction of the Tenant Improvements affected by such Tenant Change Request if such Tenant Change Request is implemented (including, but not limited to, any costs of compliance with laws or governmental regulations that become applicable because of the implementation of the Tenant Change Request). If Landlord approves the Tenant Change Request and Tenant notifies Landlord in writing, within three (3) business days after receipt of such notice from Landlord, of Tenant's approval of the Tenant Change Request (including the estimated delays and cost increases, if any, described in Landlord's notice), then Landlord shall cause such Tenant Change Request to be implemented and Tenant shall be responsible for all actual costs or cost increases resulting from or attributable to the implementation of the Tenant Change Request, and any delays resulting therefrom shall be deemed to be a Tenant Delay (subject to Landlord's payment of the Tenant Improvement Allowance and, to the extent requested by Tenant, the Additional TI Allowance).

Specifically, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to approve all plans and specifications for the proposed Alterations, construction means and methods, all appropriate permits and licenses, any contractor or subcontractor to be employed on the work of Alterations, and the time for performance of such work, and may impose rules and regulations for contractors and subcontractors performing such work.

Tenant shall also supply to Landlord any documents and information reasonably requested by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s consideration of a request for approval hereunder.
