Before the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall obtain a detailed breakdown, by trade, of the costs incurred or that will be incurred, in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements (the “Budget”), and deliver a copy of the Budget to Landlord for Landlord’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

The Budget shall include a payment to Landlord of administrative rent (“Administrative Rent”) equal to 3% of the Tl Allowance (as hereinafter defined) for monitoring and inspecting the construction of the Tenant Improvements, which sum shall be payable from the Tl Fund.

(b) Tl Allowance. Landlord shall provide to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance (collectively, the “Tl Allowance”) as follows:

1. a “Tenant Improvement Allowance” in the maximum amount of $115.00 per rentable square foot in the Expansion Premises, which is included in the Base Rent set forth in the Lease; and

the Additional Tenant Improvement Allowance not disbursed in connection with the Tenant Improvements before the last day of the 12th month after the Expansion Premises Expiration Date may be used by Tenant toward the cost of Alterations in the Premises constructed pursuant to Section 12 of the Lease through the last day of the 24th month after the Expansion Premises Commencement Date. Tenant shall have no right to any portion of the Additional Tenant Improvement Allowance that is not disbursed before the last day of the 24th month after the Expansion Premises Commencement Date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Tl Fund shall not be used to purchase any furniture, personal property or other non-Building system materials or equipment, including, but not be limited to, Tenant’s voice or data cabling.

(d) Excess Tl Costs. Landlord shall have no obligation to bear any portion of the cost of any of the Tenant Improvements except to the extent of the Tl Allowance. If at any time and from time-to-time, the remaining Tl Costs under the Budget exceed the remaining unexpended Tl Allowance (“Excess Tl Costs”), monthly disbursements of the Tl Allowance shall be made in the proportion that the remaining Tl Allowance bears to the outstanding Tl Costs under the Budget, and Tenant shall fund the balance of each such monthly draw. For purposes of any litigation instituted with regard to such amounts, those amounts required to be paid by Tenant will be deemed Rent under the Lease. The Tl Allowance and Excess Tl Costs are herein referred to as the “Tl Fund.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5(d), Tenant shall be fully and solely liable for Tl Costs and the cost of Minor Variations in excess of the Tl Allowance.

(e) Funding Requisition; Reconciliation; Timely Payment. During the course of design and construction of the Tenant Improvements, subject to the terms of Section 5(d).
