5.Expansion Premises Construction Allowance. Tenant shall be entitled to receive a construction allowance in connection with its lease of the Expansion Premises in the amount of the product of the number of square feet of rentable area contained within the Expansion Premises multiplied by $62.30 (the “Expansion Premises Construction Allowance”). Landlord shall be entitled to receive a construction supervisory fee in the amount of the product of the number of square feet of rentable area contained within the Expansion Premises multiplied by $0.37, which amount may be deducted from the amount of the Expansion Premises Construction Allowance.
