(i)                        Monthly Disbursements.  From time-to-time, but not more frequently than monthly (each, a “Submittal Date”) during the period from the date hereof through the construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord:  (A) a request for payment of the “Contractor,” as that term is defined in Section 3.1 of this Tenant Work Letter, and/or to the “Architect” and/or to the “Engineers,” as such terms are defined in Section 2.1 below, and/or to Tenant’s various consultants or other persons or entities entitled to payment (or reimbursement to Tenant if Tenant has already paid the Contractor or other person or entity entitled to payment), approved by Tenant, in a form to be provided by Landlord, showing the schedule, by trade, of percentage of completion of the Tenant Improvements in the Expansion Premises, detailing the portion of the work completed; (B) invoices from all of Tenant’s Agents (hereinafter defined) for labor rendered and materials and equipment delivered to the Expansion Premises for the applicable payment period; (C) executed conditional mechanics’ lien releases from all of applicable Tenant’s Agents that have mechanic lien rights, which shall substantially comply with the appropriate

 

B-2



 

provisions of California Civil Code Section 3262(d) or unconditional releases if appropriate; provided, however, that with respect to fees and expenses of the Architect, Engineers, or construction or project managers or other similar consultants, and/or any other pre-construction items or FF&E costs, for which the payment scheme set forth in items (A) through (C) above of this Tenant Work Letter, is not applicable (collectively, the “Non-Construction Allowance Items”), Tenant shall only be required to deliver to Landlord on or before the applicable Submittal Date, reasonable evidence of incurring the cost for the applicable Non-Construction Allowance Items (unless Landlord has received a preliminary notice in connection with such costs in which event conditional lien releases must be submitted in connection with such costs); and (D) all other information reasonably requested in good faith by Landlord.  Tenant’s request for payment shall be deemed Tenant’s acceptance and approval of the work furnished and/or the materials supplied as set forth in Tenant’s payment request vis-à-vis Landlord.  Within thirty (30) days following the Submittal Date, and assuming Landlord receives all of the information described in items (A) through (D) above, Landlord shall deliver a check to Tenant made jointly payable to Contractor and Tenant or if Tenant elects, to the Contractor, subcontractor, architect, engineer or consultant designated by Tenant and/or a separate check to Tenant where Tenant has provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that Tenant has paid such Contractor (or other supplier of services or goods) accompanied when appropriate by unconditional lien releases, or any other provider of goods and services designated by Tenant to Landlord, and Tenant in payment of the lesser of:  (1) the amounts so requested by Tenant, as set forth above in this Section 1.2(b)(i), less a ten percent (10%) retention (the aggregate amount of such retentions to be known as the “Final Retention”); provided, however, that no such retention shall be duplicative of the retention Tenant would otherwise withhold (but will not withhold) pursuant to its agreement with such Contractor and no such deduction shall be applicable to amounts due to Tenant’s consultants, the Architect, or the Engineer or for Non-Construction Allowance Items or other Tenant Improvement Allowance Items in connection with the payment of suppliers for materials delivered to the Expansion Premises and subcontractors for completing performance of their work substantially in advance of the completion of the Tenant Improvements pursuant to the Approved Construction Drawings, and (2) the balance of any remaining available portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (not including the Final Retention).  In the event that Landlord or Tenant identifies any material non-compliance with the Approved Construction Drawings, or substandard work, Landlord or Tenant as appropriate shall be provided a detailed statement identifying such material non-compliance or substandard work by the party claiming the same, and Tenant shall cause such work to be corrected so that such work is no longer substandard.  Such procedure shall also be applicable in connection with the payment of the Final Retention.  Landlord’s payment of such amounts shall not be deemed Landlord’s approval or acceptance of the work furnished or materials supplied as set forth in Tenant’s payment request.  If Tenant receives a check payable to anyone other than solely to Tenant, Tenant may return such check to Landlord and receive a replacement check made payable only to Tenant within ten (10) business days, if Tenant provides the releases and evidence to the extent required above to receive a check payable solely to Tenant.

 

(ii)                     Final Retention.  A check for the Final Retention payable jointly to Tenant and Contractor (or payable solely to Tenant if Contractor is no longer owed any money by

2.5                Change Orders.  In the event Tenant desires to change the Approved Construction Drawings, Tenant shall deliver notice (the “Drawing Change Notice”) of the same to Landlord, setting forth in detail the changes (the “Tenant Change”) Tenant desires to make to the Approved Construction Drawings.  Landlord shall, within four (4) business days of receipt of a Drawing Change Notice, either (i) approve the Tenant Change, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld if the same is consistent with the Final Space Plan or (ii) disapprove the Tenant Change and deliver a notice to Tenant specifying in reasonably sufficient detail the reasons for Landlord’s disapproval.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s consent shall not be required for Tenant Changes which meet the criteria for Alterations that do not require the consent of Landlord pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 12(a) of the Original Lease; provided, however that Tenant shall provide Landlord with written notice of any such Tenant Changes.

(B)               Special Coverages.  Contractor shall carry “Builder’s All Risk” insurance, in an amount approved by Landlord but not more than the amount of the Contract, covering the construction of the Tenant Improvements, and such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably require, it being understood and agreed that the Tenant Improvements shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to the Lease immediately upon completion thereof.  Such insurance shall be in amounts and shall include such extended coverage endorsements as may be reasonably required by Landlord (to the extent they are generally required by landlords of Comparable Buildings) and shall be in a form and with companies as are required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Lease.
