All such costs of completing Tenant's Work which are in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Lease and this Work Letter. C-7 SECTION 2 TENANT IMPROVEMENT PLANS 2.1 Architect/Construction Plans. Tenant has retained CAS Architects, Inc. (the "Architect") to prepare the construction plans for all Tenant Improvements and Special Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall retain engineering consultants (the "Engineers") approved by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to prepare all plans and engineering working drawings relating to the Tenant Improvements, including without limitation, all structural, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, life safety, and sprinkler work in the Premises which is not part of the Base Building. The final working plans and drawings to be prepared by Architect and the Engineers hereunder shall be known collectively as the "Tenant Improvement Plans". The scope, form and content of all plans and drawings shall be discussed in reasonable detail at each of the weekly meetings held pursuant to the terms of Section 3.2.6 below. All Tenant Improvement Plans shall be in a form suitable for bidding and construction by qualified contractors, shall meet the requirements of the City of Livermore, and shall be subject to Landlord's approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant and Architect shall verify, in the field, the dimensions and conditions as shown on the relevant portions of the Base Building plans, and Tenant and Architect shall be solely responsible for the same, and Landlord shall have no responsibility in connection therewith. Landlord's review of the Tenant Improvement Plans as set forth in this Section 2, shall be for its sole purpose and shall not obligate Landlord to review the same, for quality, design, code compliance or other like matters. Accordingly, notwithstanding that any Tenant Improvement Plans are reviewed by Landlord or its architect, engineers and consultants, and notwithstanding any advice or assistance which may be rendered to Tenant by Landlord or Landlord's space planner, architect, engineers, and consultants, Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever in connection therewith and shall not be responsible for any omissions or errors contained in the Tenant Improvement Plans, and Tenant's waiver and indemnity set forth in Section 16 of this Lease shall specifically apply to the Tenant Improvement Plans. 2.2 Final Design Drawings. Tenant and the Architect shall prepare the final design drawings and specifications for Tenant Improvements in the Premises (collectively, the "Final Design Drawings") and shall deliver the same to Landlord for Landlord's approval. The Final Design Drawings shall include a layout and designation of all offices, rooms and other partitioning. Landlord may request clarification or more specific drawings for special use items not included in the Final Design Drawings. Landlord shall advise Tenant within five (5) business days after Landlord's receipt of the Final Design Drawings for the Premises if the same are unsatisfactory or incomplete in any commercially reasonable respect. If Tenant is so advised, Tenant shall promptly cause the Final Design Drawings to be revised to correct any deficiencies or other matters Landlord may reasonably require. 2.3 Final Working Drawings. After the Final Design Drawings have been approved by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly cause the Architect and the Engineers to complete the architectural and engineering drawings for the Premises, and Architect shall compile a fully coordinated set of architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing working drawings in a commercially reasonable and customary form which is sufficiently complete to allow subcontractors with a reasonable level of competence and experience in the industry to bid on the work and to obtain all permits required for the construction of the Tenant Improvements (the "PERMITS") and shall submit the same (collectively, the "FINAL WORKING DRAWINGS") to Landlord for Landlord's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant shall supply Landlord with three (3) copies signed by Tenant of such Final Working Drawings. Landlord shall advise Tenant in writing within five (5) business days after Landlord's receipt of the Final Working Drawings for the Premises if the same are unsatisfactory or incomplete in any commercially reasonable respect, and provide Tenant with sufficient detail to address the issues presented by Landlord. If Tenant is so advised, Tenant shall promptly cause the Final Working Drawings to be revised in accordance with such review and any disapproval of Landlord in connection therewith. 2.4 Approved Tenant Improvement Plans. The Final Working Drawings shall be approved by Landlord (the "Approved Tenant Improvement Plans") prior to the commencement of C-8 construction of the Tenant Improvements by Tenant. In order to expedite the permitting process, however, prior to Landlord's approval pursuant to Section 2.3 above, Tenant may submit the Final Working Drawings to the appropriate municipal authorities for all Permits necessary to allow Tenant's contractor to commence and fully complete the construction of the Tenant Improvements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord does not waive the right to approve the Final Working Drawings and by electing to submit the Final Working Drawings for permit prior to Landlord's approval, Tenant is assuming the risk that Landlord may require changes in such drawings after the same have been submitted for permits. Tenant hereby agrees that neither Landlord nor Landlord's consultants shall be responsible for obtaining any of the Permits or a certificate of occupancy for the Premises and that obtaining the same shall be Tenant's responsibility; provided, however, that Landlord shall in all events cooperate with Tenant in executing permit applications and performing other ministerial acts reasonably necessary to enable Tenant to obtain any such permit or certificate of occupancy. No changes, modifications or alterations in the Approved Tenant Improvement Plans may be made without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. SECTION 3 CONSTRUCTION OF TENANT IMPROVEMENTS 3.1 Tenant's Selection of Contractors. 3.1.1 Tenant's Contractor. A general contractor shall be retained by Tenant to construct the Tenant Improvements. Such general contractor ("TENANT'S CONTRACTOR") shall be subject to Landlord's prior approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 3.1.2 Tenant's Agents. All subcontractors, laborers, materialmen, and suppliers used by Tenant (such subcontractors, laborers, materialmen, and suppliers, and Tenant's Contractor to be known collectively as "TENANT'S AGENTS") must be approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If Landlord does not approve any of Tenant's proposed subcontractors, laborers, materialmen or suppliers, Tenant shall submit other proposed subcontractors, laborers, materialmen or suppliers for Landlord's written approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall retain subcontractors designated or reasonably approved by Landlord in connection with any structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing or heating, air-conditioning or ventilation work to be performed in the Premises. Further Landlord's approval shall not be required for any of Tenant's Agents performing work or providing materials costing less than $10,000. 3.2 Construction of Tenant Improvements by Tenant's Agents. 3.2.1 Tenant's Construction Contract; Cost Budget. Prior to Tenant's execution of the construction contract and general conditions with Tenant's Contractor ("TENANT'S CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT"), Tenant shall submit Tenant's Construction Contract to Landlord for its approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Prior to the commencement of the construction of the Tenant Improvements, and after Tenant has accepted all bids for the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a detailed breakdown, by trade, of the final costs to be incurred or which have been incurred in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements to be performed by or at the direction of Tenant or Tenant's Contractor, which costs form a basis for the amount of Tenant's Construction Contract (the "Final Costs"). If the costs of the Tenant Improvements exceed the Tenant Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall also provide Landlord with its computation of percentage that the Tenant Improvement Allowance bears to the total costs of the Tenant Improvements (the "ALLOWANCE PERCENTAGE") 3.2.2 Tenant's Agents. A. Landlord's General Terms for Tenant's Agents and Tenant Improvement Work. Tenant's and Tenant's Agent's construction of the Tenant Improvements shall comply with the following: (i) the Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the Approved Tenant Improvement Plans; and (ii) Tenant shall abide by all rules reasonably made by Landlord with respect to storage of materials, coordination of work with the contractors of other tenants and C-9 Landlord, and any other matter in connection with this Work Letter, including, without limitation, the construction of the Tenant Improvements. B. Indemnity.

Such indemnity by Tenant, as set forth in Section 16.1 of this Lease, shall also apply with respect to any and all costs, losses, damages, injuries and liabilities related in any way to Landlord's performance of any ministerial acts reasonably necessary (i) to permit Tenant to complete the Tenant Improvements, and (ii) to enable Tenant to obtain any building permit or certificate of occupancy for the Premises. C. Requirements of Tenant's Agents. Each of Tenant's Agents shall guarantee to Tenant and for the benefit of Landlord that the portion of the Tenant Improvements for which it is responsible shall be free from any defects in workmanship and materials for a period of not less than one (1) year from the date of completion thereof. Each of Tenant's Agents shall be responsible for the replacement or repair, without additional charge, of all work done or furnished in accordance with its contract that shall become defective within one (1) year after the later to occur of (i) completion of the work performed by such contractor or subcontractors and (ii) the Lease Commencement Date. The correction of such work shall include, without additional charge, all additional expenses and damages incurred in connection with such removal or replacement of all or any part of the Tenant Improvements, and/or the Building and/or common areas that may be damaged or disturbed thereby. All such warranties or guarantees as to materials or workmanship of or with respect to the Tenant Improvements shall be contained in the Contract or subcontract and shall be written such that such guarantees or warranties shall inure to the benefit of both Landlord and Tenant. D. Insurance Requirements. 1. General Coverages. All of Tenant's Agents shall carry worker's compensation insurance covering all of their respective employees, and shall also carry public liability insurance, including property damage, all with limits, in form and with companies as are required to be carried by Tenant as set forth in Article 14 of this Lease. 2. Special Coverages. Tenant shall carry "Builder's All Risk" insurance in an amount approved by Landlord covering the construction of the Tenant Improvements, and such other commercially reasonable insurance as Landlord may require, it being understood and agreed that the Tenant Improvements shall be insured by Landlord pursuant to Article 14 of this Lease upon completion thereof. Tenant's policy of Builder's All Risk insurance shall be in amounts and shall include such extended coverage endorsements as may be reasonably required by Landlord including, but not limited to, the requirement that all of Tenant's Agents shall carry Excess Liability and Products and Completed Operation Coverage insurance, each in amounts not less than $1,000,000 per incident, $2,000,000 in aggregate, and in form and with companies as are required to be carried by Tenant as set forth in Article 14 of this Lease. 3. General Terms. Certificates for all insurance carried pursuant to this Section 3.2.2(D) shall be delivered to Landlord before the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements and before the equipment of Tenant's Contractor is moved onto the site.

In the event that the Tenant Improvements are damaged by any cause during the course of the construction thereof, Tenant shall immediately repair the same at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Tenant's Agents shall maintain all of the foregoing insurance coverage in force until the Tenant Improvements are fully completed and accepted by Landlord, except for any Products and Completed Operation Coverage insurance required by Landlord, which is to be maintained for ten (10) years following completion of the work and acceptance by Landlord and Tenant. All policies carried under this Section 3.2.2(D) shall insure Landlord and Tenant, as their interests may appear, as well as Tenant's Contractor and Tenant's Agents. All insurance, except Workers' Compensation, maintained by Tenant's Agents shall preclude subrogation claims by the insurer against anyone insured thereunder. Such insurance shall provide that it is primary insurance C-10 as respects the Landlord and that any other insurance maintained by Landlord is excess and noncontributing with the insurance required hereunder. The requirements for the foregoing insurance shall not derogate from the provisions for indemnification of Landlord by Tenant under Section 3.2.2(B) of this Work Letter. 3.2.3 Governmental Compliance.

All provisions of Article 29 shall apply to Tenant's Work as if fully set forth into this Work Letter. 3.2.5 Inspection by Landlord. Landlord shall have the right to inspect the Tenant Improvements at all times, provided however, that Landlord's failure to inspect the Tenant Improvements shall in no event constitute a waiver of any of Landlord's rights hereunder nor shall Landlord's inspection of the Tenant Improvements constitute Landlord's approval of the same. Should Landlord reasonably disapprove any portion of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of such disapproval and shall specify the items disapproved. Any material defects or deviations in, and/or disapproval by Landlord of, the Tenant Improvements shall be rectified by Tenant at no expense to Landlord, provided however, that in the event Landlord determines that a defect or deviation exists or disapproves of any matter in connection with any portion of the Tenant Improvements and such defect, deviation or matter might adversely affect the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating and air-conditioning or life-safety systems of the Building, the structure or exterior appearance of the Building or any other tenant's use of such other tenant's leased premises, Landlord after giving Tenant at least three (3) business days advance written notice and an opportunity to cure or otherwise demonstrate compliance, may take such action as Landlord deems necessary, at Tenant's expense and without incurring any liability on Landlord's part, to correct any such defect, deviation and/or matter, including, without limitation, causing the cessation of performance of the construction of the Tenant Improvements until such time as the defect, deviation and/or matter is corrected to Landlord's satisfaction. 3.2.6 Meetings.

All costs of completing Tenant's Work in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense. D. Other Landlord Costs.
