     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and of the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00) paid by Tenant to Landlord, and for other good and valuable consideration, the mutual receipt and legal sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant, for themselves, their legal representatives, successors and assigns, hereby agree as follows:

Landlord’s Work shall be deemed to have been substantially completed (i) despite the fact that minor or insubstantial details of construction, decoration or mechanical adjustment remain to be performed, provided the New Premises are accessible and usable (Landlord will diligently complete such details of construction, decoration or mechanical adjustment), and (ii) if Landlord’s Work has been substantially completed except for portions thereof which under good construction scheduling practice should be done after still uncompleted work which Tenant wishes to perform at the New Premises. If, as of the Effective Date, Landlord shall have obtained only a temporary certificate of occupancy with respect to the New Premises, Landlord shall diligently thereafter attempt to obtain a permanent certificate of occupancy therefor.
     2.3.
