Tenant acknowledges that it is in possession of the Premises and the 21717 Premises as of the date hereof and Landlord shall not be required to make any alterations or improvements to the Premises and/or the 21717 Premises in connection with the execution of this Fourth Amendment or the execution of the First Amendment to Lease for the 21717 Premises. Landlord shall provide Tenant with an improvement allowance (“Landlord’s Contribution”) toward the cost of any ongoing and/or future alterations, additions and improvements to the Premises and/or the 21717 Premises performed by or on behalf of Tenant in compliance with the Lease and/or the 21717 Lease, as the case may be (collectively, “Tenant’s Work”), in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) $[*], or (ii) the actual third-party cost of Tenant’s Work, in each case less a supervision fee to be retained by Landlord equal to [*] of Landlord’s Contribution, the intent being that Landlord’s Contribution shall represent the entire amount made available by Landlord to Tenant to be used for alterations, additions and improvements at the Premises and/or the 21717 Premises and there shall be no additional allowance provided for under the 21717 Lease; provided, however, if either the Lease or the 21717 Lease shall be terminated (but not both leases) as a result of (a) a default existing beyond any notice and cure periods in the Lease or the 21717 Lease, as applicable, of Tenant, or (b) fire or casualty or condemnation, in any case, in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Lease and/or the 21717 Lease, as applicable, and any Landlord’s Contribution remains undisbursed, Tenant may not requisition any further Landlord’s Contribution to the extent the costs for which any requisition (aggregating any requisition made before or after such termination) shall exceed the product of the costs attributable to the premises demised by the lease not so terminated multiplied by the Cap, where the “Cap” is $[*] per rentable square foot of the Premises and $[*] per rentable square foot of the 21717 Premises (as an example, if the Lease is terminated due to the occurrence of the events in (a) or (b) above, then Tenant shall not be entitled to the use any of Landlord’s Contribution in excess of $[*] ($[*] per rentable square foot of the 21717 Premises)). For purposes of this Section 5, the “cost” of Tenant’s Work shall mean third-party costs paid by Tenant to design and construct improvements to the Premises and/or the 21717 Premises after the date of this Fourth Amendment.

Tenant’s Work shall be performed in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Lease and the 21717 Lease including, without limitation, Section 10 of the Lease and Section 8 of the 21717 Lease, as the case may be; in a good and workmanlike manner; by contractors approved by Landlord; in compliance with all applicable laws, codes, regulations, permits and approvals; and in accordance with any reasonable directions that may be given, from time to time, by Landlord’s building manager.

Each requisition for a Progress Payment shall include the following documentation: (1) a cost breakdown for each trade or subcontractor performing Tenant’s Work on AIA Document G702/G703 (or reasonable equivalent); (2) a copy of each executed Application for Payment and Architect’s Certificate for Payment on AIA Documents G702/G703 (or reasonable equivalents) covering all of Tenant’s Work for which the disbursement is being made; (3) executed lien waivers (in forms required for release of mechanics’ liens in the State of Washington, and which may be conditioned on payment of the amount requested by the applicable lien waiver) from the general contractor, subcontractors and materials suppliers waiving, releasing and relinquishing all liens, claims and rights to lien under applicable laws on account of any labor, materials and/or equipment furnished by such party for the amount identified in, and through the period covered by, the Application for Payment and Architect’s Certificate for Payment on AIA Documents G702/G703 (or reasonable equivalents) submitted as part of the requisition; and (4) copies of paid invoices for any costs of the Tenant’s Work for which the disbursement is being made that are

Landlord shall make each Progress Payment (in an amount not to exceed the lesser of (x) the costs of Tenant’s Work as evidenced by the documentation submitted with the applicable requisition, or (y) the balance of Landlord’s Contribution then remaining, less amounts retained by Landlord as hereinabove provided) to Tenant within [*] days after Landlord’s receipt of a Progress Payment requisition with all required supporting documentation.

After Substantial Completion (hereinafter defined) of Tenant’s Work, Tenant may submit a requisition to Landlord for payment of the balance of Landlord’s Contribution (including the retainage as provided above) (the “Final Payment”).

Landlord shall make the Final Payment within [*] days after Landlord’s receipt of a timely requisition for the Final Payment with all required supporting documentation. For purposes of this Fourth Amendment, “Substantial Completion” shall mean that all of Tenant’s Work as shown and described in Tenant’s Plans has been completed, with only punchlist items (i.e., minor and insubstantial details of decoration or mechanical adjustment) excepted.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 5 to the contrary, Landlord shall have no obligation to make any Progress Payment or the Final Payment with respect to any requisition or request for payment submitted later than June 30, 2019 or at any time during which there shall be a default of Tenant under the Lease or the 21717 Lease. Any funds not so requisitioned shall be forfeited by Tenant and becwome Landlord’s property, time being of the essence.

7.    Section 8.1 of the Lease is hereby amended to provide that commencing on July 1, 2018, in no event shall the property management fee for each year of the Term exceed [*] of the net rental income of the Building for the applicable year of the Term.
