Tenant shall construct improvements to the Premises (the “Tenant Improvements”) in substantial conformity with the plans and outline specifications of the plan to be prepared pursuant to the provisions of the Work Letter (the “Work Letter”) attached hereto as Exhibit B. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a one-time tenant improvement allowance in the amount of $100.00 per rentable square foot of the Expansion Premises (i.e. $1,208,500.00) (the “Expansion Premises Allowance”) and $30.00 per rentable square foot of the Existing Premises (i.e. $571,080) (the “Existing Premises Allowance” and, together with the Expansion Premises Allowance, the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”) for the costs relating to the Tenant Improvements. The Expansion Premises Allowance shall only be used for the costs relating to the Tenant Improvements in the Expansion Premises. The Existing Premises Allowance may be used for the costs relating to the Tenant Improvements in the Existing Premises and/or the Expansion Premises, in Tenant’s sole discretion. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to contribute toward the cost of the Tenant Improvements which are not agreed upon by Landlord or a total amount which exceeds the Tenant Improvement Allowance. Any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance which has not been expended and requested from Landlord pursuant to the terms of Section 2 of the Work Letter by April 30, 2020 shall be forfeited. Subject to Section 5(b) below, Tenant shall be responsible for any costs incurred to make the Existing Premises compliant under any applicable codes or Applicable Laws, as a result of the Tenant Improvements and Landlord shall be responsible for any costs incurred to make the Building (except for the Existing Premises) compliant under any applicable codes or Applicable Laws, as a result of the Tenant Improvements.

Allowance. Tenant shall be entitled to an allowance (the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”) in an amount not to exceed $110.00 per square foot of Rentable Area of the Premises for the costs relating to the design, permitting and construction of Tenant’s improvements which will be permanently affixed to the Premises in accordance with this Workletter (the “Tenant Improvements”). In no event will Landlord be obligated to make disbursements pursuant to this Workletter in a total amount which exceeds the Tenant Improvement Allowance. Tenant agrees that it shall commence the Tenant Improvements promptly following the Commencement Date and diligently proceed to complete the same. Tenant must submit Payment Request Supporting Documentation (defined below) for such work in accordance with this Workletter no later than April 1, 2020, after which date Landlord’s obligation to fund such costs shall expire.

Tenant Improvement Allowance. Subject to any restrictions, conditions or limitations expressly set forth in this Tenant Work Letter or in the Lease or as otherwise expressly provided by mutual written agreement of Landlord and Tenant, the cost of construction of the Tenant Improvements shall be paid or reimbursed by Landlord up to a maximum amount equal to $125.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises (i.e., $7,831,875.00 based upon 62,655 rentable square feet in the Premises) (the "Tenant Improvement Allowance"), which amount is being made available by Landlord to be applied towards the Cost of Improvements for the construction of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises, less any reduction in or charge against such amount pursuant to any applicable provisions of this Tenant Work Letter. Tenant shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for payment of the entire Cost of Improvements of the Tenant Improvements in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (such excess amount is referred to herein as the "Tenant Funds Amount", including (but not limited to) any costs or cost increases incurred as a result of delays (unless caused by Landlord), governmental requirements or unanticipated conditions (unless caused by Landlord), and for payment of any and all costs and expenses relating to any alterations, additions, improvements, furniture, furnishings, equipment, fixtures and personal property items which are not eligible for application of Tenant Improvement Allowance funds under the restrictions expressly set forth below in this paragraph, but Tenant shall be entitled to use or apply the entire Tenant Improvement Allowance toward the Cost of Improvements of the Tenant Improvements (subject to any applicable restrictions, conditions, limitations, reductions or charges set forth in the Lease or in this Tenant Work Letter) prior to being required to expend any of Tenant’s own funds for the Tenant Improvements. The funding of the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be made on a monthly basis or at other convenient intervals mutually approved by Landlord and Tenant and in all other respects shall be based on such commercially reasonable disbursement conditions and procedures as Landlord, Project Manager and Landlord’s lender (if any) may reasonably prescribe. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, under no circumstances shall the Tenant Improvement Allowance or any portion thereof be used or useable by Tenant for any moving or relocation expenses of Tenant, or for any Cost of Improvement (or any other cost or expense) associated with any moveable furniture or trade fixtures, personal property or any other item or element which, under the applicable provisions of the Lease, will not become Landlord’s property and remain with the Building upon expiration or termination of the Lease.

Tenant Improvement Allowance. Tenant shall perform the Tenant Improvements as set forth in the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Work Letter”). Landlord shall provide a Tenant Improvement Allowance of up to $65.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises, or up to $8,412,560.00, in the aggregate, which may be used by Tenant to fund appropriate improvements to the Premises which are consistent with the use of the Premises as Class A laboratory and office space and are constructed in accordance with, and as described in, the Work Letter; provided, however, the parties acknowledge and agree that Tenant may be retrofitting the Premises to be used, primarily, as office space, and, as such, portions of the Premises currently used for laboratory space may be converted to office space (but provided that such retrofitting be performed in such a manner so as to facilitate the future conversion of such office space back to laboratory space as set forth in Section 2(a) of the Work Letter).

Tenant shall cause the Tenant Improvements to be constructed in the Premises pursuant to the Work Letter attached hereto as [Exhibit 3] (the “Work Letter”) at a cost to Landlord not to exceed Four Million Four Hundred Twenty Six Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($4,426,500.00) (based upon One Hundred Thirteen and 50/100 Dollars ($113.50) per square foot of rentable area (the “TI Allowance”). The TI Allowance may be applied to the costs of # construction, # intentionally omitted, # commissioning of mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems by a licensed, qualified commissioning agent hired by Tenant, excluding any commissioning of base Building HVAC equipment, # building permits and other taxes, fees, charges and levies by Governmental Authorities (as defined below) for permits or for inspections of the Tenant Improvements, and # costs and expenses for labor, material, equipment and fixtures. In no event shall the TI Allowance be used for # the cost of work that is not authorized by the Approved Plans (as defined in the Work Letter) or otherwise approved in writing by Landlord, # payments to Tenant or any affiliates of Tenant, # the purchase of any furniture, personal property or other non-building system equipment, # costs arising from any default by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease or # costs that are recoverable by Tenant from a third party (e.g., insurers, warrantors, or tortfeasors). In addition, Landlord shall provide an allowance to Tenant to be used solely for architectural and engineering costs related to the preparation of an initial test fit plan for the Tenant Improvements in an amount not to exceed Three Thousand Nine Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($3,900.00) (based upon Ten Cents ($0.10) per square foot of rentable area) (the “Test Fit Plan Allowance”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby acknowledges and agrees that any costs incurred by Landlord with respect to project review by Landlord (including without limitation, Landlord’s actual out of pocket costs incurred by Landlord in reviewing and managing the Tenant Improvements) shall be at Landlord’s sole cost and expense and no portion of the TI Allowance shall be used therefor. For purposes of clarity, nothing in this Section 3.2 shall limit the costs and expenses incurred by Landlord for which Landlord is entitled to reimbursement by Tenant for Alterations that are not the Tenant Improvements in accordance with Article 11 of this Lease.

Pursuant to the terms hereof, Landlord shall pay to Tenant an amount not to exceed Two Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Four Hundred Eighty-Seven and 50/100 Dollars ($2,250,487.50) (the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”), calculated at the rate of Twelve and 50/100 Dollars ($12.50) per rentable square foot of the Premises, which shall be applied towards the cost of Tenant’s improvements to the Premises (the “Tenant Improvements”). The use of the term “Premises” in this Section 2.6 shall refer to the Current Premises, as expanded to include the Expansion Space, notwithstanding that the Expansion Space Commencement Date may not yet have occurred. The Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be payable solely on account of labor directly related to Tenant Improvements and materials delivered to the Premises in connection with the Tenant Improvements; provided, however, a portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance of up to but not more than $450,097.50 (i.e., $2.50 per rentable square foot of the Premises) may be applied against architectural and engineering fees, construction management fees, telephone wiring and computer cabling costs, other telephone and data costs, costs of furniture, fixtures and equipment and other so-called “soft costs” incurred by Tenant in connection with the Tenant Improvements. Excepting only the alterations depicted on Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Approved Tenant Improvements”), the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall not be applied towards the costs of exterior alterations, alterations outside of the Premises, alterations (excepting only cosmetic alterations) to the current configuration of the demising walls that separate the Fourth Expansion Premises from the remainder of the Premises, or alterations to the common areas of the Property unless, in each case, Tenant has obtained Landlord’s prior consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Following the effectiveness of this Amendment pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof, Landlord shall disburse the Tenant Improvement Allowance funds to Tenant for the costs and expenses of Tenant Improvements incurred by Tenant pursuant to Section 2.6 hereof if no Event of Default (which has not been cured after the giving of any required notice and expiration of any applicable period of grace) then exists; provided however, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default the obligation of Landlord to fund the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be suspended and tolled during the pendency of such Event of Default, and if, as and when said Event of Default is cured by Tenant in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lease, then said suspension shall cease and said obligation shall resume, in accordance with and subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 2.6.

Upon the execution and delivery of this Lease by Landlord and Tenant, Landlord shall make available to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance of up to $5.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises (the “Improvement Allowance”). The Improvement Allowance may be applied to hard and soft costs incurred in connection with the design and construction of fixed and permanent improvements in the Premises desired by Tenant and reasonably acceptable to Landlord (the “Premises Improvements”). Tenant shall engage directly with architects and contractors to plan and construct the Premises Improvements and the design, construction and completion of the Premises Improvements shall be Tenant’s responsibility. Tenant acknowledges that upon the expiration of the Term of the Lease, the Premises Improvements shall become the property of Landlord and may not be removed by Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord an administration fee equal to 1% of the cost of the Premises Improvements for monitoring and inspecting the Premises Improvements, which administration fee shall be payable out of the Improvement Allowance. Except for the Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall be solely responsible for all of the costs of the Premises Improvements. During the course of design and construction of the Premises Improvements, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the cost of the Tenant Improvements not more than once a month against a draw request in Landlord’s standard form, containing evidence of payment of the applicable costs and lien waivers (including a conditional lien release for each progress payment and unconditional lien releases for the prior month’s progress payments), to the extent of Landlord’s approval thereof for payment, no later than 30 days following receipt of such draw request. Upon completion of the Premises Improvements (and prior to any final disbursement of the Improvement Allowance) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the following items: # statements setting forth the names of all contractors and subcontractors who did work on the Premises Improvements and final lien waivers from all such contractors; and # “as built” plans or marked-up construction drawings for the Premises Improvements. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the benefit of all construction warranties and manufacturer’s equipment warranties relating to equipment installed in the Premises as part of the Premises Improvements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the cost of the Premises Improvements exceeds the Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall be required to pay such excess prior to the distribution of the then-remaining unpaid TI Allowance. Tenant shall have no right to any portion of the Improvement Allowance that is not requested for disbursement by Tenant pursuant to the terms set forth above for the payment of Premises Improvements costs prior to the date that is 12 months after the 47 Wiggins Premises Commencement Date, provided that to the extent that, following the 47 Wiggins Premises Commencement Date, there exists a Force Majeure event that restricts construction activities in the [[Address A:Address]] area, which precludes the construction of the Premises Improvements, then such 12-month period shall be delayed 1 day for each day that such Force Majeure event preclude Tenant’s construction of the Premises Improvements.

Improvements. Except as specifically set forth herein, Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Premises, and Tenant shall continue to accept the Premises in its presently existing, "as-is" condition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Premises Tenant shall be entitled to a one-time tenant improvement allowance (the "Tenant Improvement Allowance") equal to $200,000.00 for the costs relating to the design and construction of Tenant's improvements which are permanently affixed to the Premises (the “Tenant Improvements”). The Tenant Improvement Allowance will be disbursed in accordance with Landlord's standard disbursement procedures, including, without limitation, following Landlord's receipt of # evidence (i.e., invoices or other documentation reasonably satisfactory to Landlord) of payment for the Tenant Improvements, and # fully executed, unconditional lien releases from all contractors, subcontractors, laborers, materialmen, and suppliers used by Tenant in connection with the Tenant Improvements. The Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 9 of the Original Lease, except that Tenant may use non-union labor in connection with the Tenant Improvements. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to disburse any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance subsequent to December 31, 2019, nor shall Landlord be obligated to disburse any amount in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements. No portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, if any, remaining after the construction of the Tenant Improvements shall be available for use by Tenant.

Allowance Items,” as that term is defined in Section 2.2.1, below (the “Tenant Improvements”), which Tenant Improvements shall be performed in compliance with applicable laws (including, without limitation, the “Code,” as defined below). In no event shall Landlord be obligated to make disbursements pursuant to this Tenant Work Letter in a total amount which exceeds the Tenant Improvement Allowance. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, to the extent any portion of # the Existing Premises Tenant Improvement Allowance is unused by Tenant as of August 31, 2024 and # the Expansion Premises Tenant Improvement Allowance is unused by Tenant as of August 31, 2022 (each, an “Outside Date”), then the remaining balance thereof shall revert to Landlord, and Tenant shall have no further rights with respect thereto (whether as a Rent credit, cash payment, or otherwise). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Tenant Work Letter, Tenant may utilize up to Two Hundred Seventeen Thousand Six Hundred Eight and 00/100 Dollars ($217,608.00) ($3.00 per 72,536 rentable square feet of the Existing Premises) of the Existing Premises Tenant Improvement Allowance to pay for Tenant Improvement Allowance Items incurred by Tenant in connection with tenant improvements made to the Existing Premises during calendar year 2018 upon Tenant providing to Landlord paid invoices for all such improvements and related costs for which the Existing Premises Tenant Improvement Allowance is to be disbursed, signed permits for all improvements completed within the Existing Premises, properly executed unconditional mechanics lien _releases in compliance with both California Civil Code Section 8134 and either [Section 8136] or [Section 8138] from Tenant's contractor, subcontractors and material suppliers and any other party which has lien rights in connection with the construction of such improvements, and any other requirements that are part of Landlord's standard “close-out” package.

Tenant Improvement Allowance. Tenant shall be entitled to an improvement allowance (the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”) in the amount of $82.50 per RSF of the Expansion Space for the costs relating to the initial design and construction of the improvements which are permanently affixed to the Expansion Space and which are part of the redevelopment of the landscaping and visitors parking in front of the Building (collectively, the “Tenant Improvements”). In no event shall Landlord be obligated to make disbursements pursuant to this Tenant Work Letter in the event that Tenant fails to immediately pay any portion of the “Over-Allowance Amount,” as defined in [Section 4.2.1], nor shall Landlord be obligated to pay a total amount which exceeds the Tenant Improvement Allowance. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any contrary provision of this Lease, all Tenant Improvements shall be deemed Landlord’s property under the terms of this Lease. Any unused portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance remaining as of the Expansion Space Commencement Date, shall remain with Landlord and Tenant shall have no further right thereto.

Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Tenant has been occupying the Premises pursuant to the Lease. Except as specifically set forth herein, Landlord shall not be obligated to construct or install any improvements or facilities of any kind in the Premises, and Tenant shall continue to accept the Premises in its currently-existing, "as-is" condition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to a one-time tenant improvement allowance (the "Tenant Improvement Allowance") equal to $739,450.00 (i.e., approximately $10.00 per rentable square feet of the Original Premises) for the costs relating to the design and construction of Tenant's improvements which are permanently affixed to the Original Premises (the “Tenant Improvements”). The Tenant Improvement Allowance will be disbursed in accordance with Landlord's standard disbursement procedures, including, without limitation, following Landlord's receipt of (i) evidence (i.e., invoices or other documentation reasonably satisfactory to Landlord) of payment for the Tenant Improvements, and (ii) fully executed, unconditional lien releases from all contractors, subcontractors, laborers, materialmen, and suppliers used by Tenant in connection with the Tenant Improvements.
