6.

Commencement of Construction and Construction. Upon completion of the bidding process set forth in Section 5, Landlord shall cause the Contractor to commence construction of the First Expansion Premises Work in accordance with the Final Construction Documents and shall proceed diligently to Substantially Complete the First Expansion Premises Work. Upon the existing tenant vacation from the Second Expansion Premises, Landlord shall cause the Contractor to commence construction of the Second Expansion Premises Work in accordance with the Final Construction Documents and shall proceed diligently to Substantially Complete the Second Expansion Premises Work. Landlord shall cause all work to be done by the Contractor in a good and workmanlike manner in compliance with the Final Construction Documents and all codes and laws and good engineering practice and using first class materials, with the benefit of any and all warranties or guarantees which it receives from any person or entity supplying materials or labor in conjunction with the Expansion Premises Work. Landlord shall provide Tenant early access to the applicable Expansion Premises throughout the construction of the Expansion Premises Work as set forth in the Lease. During construction, Landlord shall

 

Exhibit B


  provide Tenant electricity, HVAC and other services to the applicable Expansion Premises, loading dock and building parking areas for Tenant and Tenant’s contractor’s, agents, and representatives at no charge to Tenant.

 

7.

Substantial Completion. The terms “Substantial Completion” and “Substantially Complete” shall mean completion of the applicable Expansion Premises Work in compliance with the Final Construction Documents, all applicable provisions of this Expansion Premises Work Letter with no remaining work needed other than punch-list items identified herein that do not impair Tenant’s full use or occupancy of the applicable Expansion Premises, or that fail to meet any regulatory requirements related to Tenant’s use, and can be completed within sixty (60) days. Substantial Completion shall be evidenced by (i) a Certificate of Occupancy, as defined below, and (ii) a certificate of substantial completion with respect to the Expansion Premises Work issued by Tenant’s Architect and Tenant’s Representative. Substantial Completion with respect to the First Expansion Premises shall in no event be later than January 1, 2018 (the “First Expansion Target Date”), subject to Tenant Delays, with TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE. Substantial Completion with respect to the Second Expansion Premises shall in no event be later than ninety (90) days from the date Vacation Hot Deals vacates the Second Expansion Premises (the “Second Expansion Target Date”), subject to Tenant Delays, with TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE.

As used herein, “Certificate of Occupancy” shall mean (i) the final certificate of occupancy issued by the local governmental authority or authorities (or a “Temporary Certificate of Occupancy” as defined herein), or (ii) if a certificate of occupancy is not required by such local governmental authority, such sign-offs as are required under applicable municipal law, and any regulatory provisions governing Tenant’s use. For the purposes of this paragraph, a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy shall mean a temporary certificate of occupancy issued by the local governmental authority, provided that such temporary certificate of occupancy allows Tenant to enter the applicable Expansion Premises for the Tenant’s full use and occupancy of, and access to, the applicable Expansion Premises for the Tenant’s use. Promptly after receipt of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy, Landlord shall apply to the appropriate local governmental authority or authorities for a final certificate of occupancy, and shall diligently pursue the receipt of such final certificate of occupancy.

As soon as either of the First Expansion Premises Work and the Second Expansion Premises Work is Substantially Complete, the Contractor and Landlord’s architect, Tenant’s Architect and Tenant’s Representative shall together walk through the Expansion Premises and Building and inspect the applicable Expansion Premises Work so completed, using reasonable efforts to discover all uncompleted or defective construction in the applicable Expansion Premises Work. After such inspection has been completed to the satisfaction of Tenant, each party shall sign an acceptance agreement which shall include a list of all “punch list” items which the parties agree are to be corrected by Landlord within a reasonable time period (which period is agreed to be sixty (60) days after execution of the acceptance agreement, unless the same cannot be corrected within such sixty-day period, in which event Landlord shall have commenced such correction within sixty (60) days if practicable and thereafter diligently pursued such repair to completion).

 

Exhibit B


8.

Late Delivery. Except as specifically set forth herein, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for failing to deliver the Expansion Premises, or any portion thereof, to Tenant by any particular date, and Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease for Landlord’s failure to timely deliver the Expansion Premises, or any portion thereof, to Tenant by any particular date, but shall accept delivery of such Expansion Premises when delivered by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Substantial Completion for the First Expansion Premises has not been achieved on or before the estimated First Expansion Target Date of January 1, 2018: (i) for the period beginning on January 2, 2018 and ending on January 31, 2018, Tenant shall receive an abatement equal to one day of annual fixed rent for the First Expansion Premises due under the Lease every day that Substantial Completion surpasses the First Expansion Target Date, and (ii) commencing on February 1, 2018, Tenant shall receive an abatement equal to two days of annual fixed rent for the First Expansion Premises due under the Lease for every day that Substantial Completion surpasses the First Expansion Target Date, in both such cases with such rent abatement being credited to Tenant installment of monthly fixed rental for the First Expansion Premises next coming due. In the event Substantial Completion for the Second Expansion Premises has not been achieved on or before the estimated Second Expansion Target Date: (i) for the period beginning on the calendar day after the estimated Second Expansion Target Date and running for the ensuing thirty (30) days, Tenant shall receive an abatement equal to one day of annual fixed rent for the Second Expansion Premises due under the Lease for every day that Substantial Completion surpasses the Second Expansion Target Date, and (ii) commencing on the day after said thirty (30) days expires, Tenant shall receive an abatement equal to two days of annual fixed rent for the Second Expansion Premises due under the Lease for every day that Substantial Completion surpasses the estimated Second Expansion Target Date, in both such cases with such rent abatement being credited to Tenant installments of monthly fixed rental for the Second Expansion Premises next coming due. For purposes hereof the annual fixed rent for the Second Expansion Premises shall be based on the per square foot charge used to calculate the annual fixed rent multiplied by the rentable square footage of the Second Expansion Premises. Landlord shall maintain Builder’s Risk insurance until the Substantial Completion of the Expansion Premises Work.

 

9.

Tenant Delay. “Tenant Delay” shall mean any actual delay in the Substantial Completion of any aspect of the Expansion Premises Work or in obtaining the applicable Certificate of Occupancy as a result of any of the following:

(a)    Tenant’s failure to select materials, colors, etc., as necessary, within five (5) days from the date that Landlord requests that Tenant make such selection;

(b)    Change Orders (as defined herein) requested by Tenant after the approval of Expansion Premises Plans that materially change the Final Construction Plans or are reasonably likely to delay the construction schedule, to the extent provided in Section 12 of this Expansion Premises Work Letter;

(c)    Tenant’s failure to pay any amounts required hereunder within the period set forth herein;

 

Exhibit B


(d)    Tenant’s failure to respond to requests or submittals made by Landlord under this Expansion Premises Work Letter within the time period specified hereunder (unless subject to a deemed approval provision, in which event Tenant’s failure to respond shall be deemed to be approved but not a Tenant Delay);

(e)    The performance or completion by Tenant, or any person or entity employed by Tenant, of any work on or about any portion of the Premises which materially interferes with the Expansion Work, including without limitation, any disharmony or labor disturbance; or

(f)    Any breach by Tenant of its express obligations under the Lease which causes a delay.

Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the impact of any Tenant Delay.

 

10.

Cost of the Expansion Premises Work.

(a)    Landlord’s contribution toward the total price for the Expansion Premises Work shall be Two Million Three Hundred Thirty-Four Thousand Eight Hundred Ten and 00/100 Dollars ($2,334,810.00) (together with any such additional allowance as may be reasonably agreed to by Landlord and Tenant, the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”), as more specifically shown on Exhibit B-2 to this Expansion Premises Work Letter. In the event that the Expansion Premises Work costs less than the Tenant Improvement Allowance, annual fixed rental shall be recalculated based on the actual cost of construction and the amortization portion of the base rent adjusted accordingly. Included in the Tenant Improvement Allowance are the following: (a) a patio construction allowance of up to $15,000; (b) an R&D Lab entrance construction allowance of up to $5,000; (c) up to $7,500 toward miscellaneous and general base buildings items, if needed; and (d) the cost of demising, construction, and configuration of the warehouse mezzanine to accommodate the compressor equipment and Bauer storage needs, such cost estimated to be $50,000 (it being understood that Tenant shall pay for all equipment and fixtures within the warehouse mezzanine). Landlord, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, shall prepare and build the demising walls depicted in the Expansion Premises Plans and shall perform all work in connection therewith including any electrical, plumbing, ductwork or other items associated with such demising walls. In addition, Landlord shall incur any costs: (x) to coordinate and phase construction, and (y) in excess of the general conditions originally quoted in the April 21, 2017 estimate relating solely to the phased delivery of the spaces shown on the plan attached to the First Amendment as Exhibit A as “Vapotherm 2nd Expansion est. 8,971 SF” and “Vapotherm 1st Expansion est. 7,735 SF”.

(b)    The Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be payable by Landlord directly to the Contractor in installments as the Expansion Premises Work progresses. Contractor requisitions shall be in the AIA G702 and G703 format (as approved by Landlord’s architect) and shall be subject to review and reasonable approval by Landlord’s architect and Tenant’s Architect prior to payment by Landlord. Each such installment shall withhold five percent (5%) pursuant to the retainage provisions of Landlord’s contract with the Contractor. Landlord shall provide to Tenant and Tenant’s Representative copies of all invoices for all of the Expansion Premises Work from subcontractors, materials providers and other vendors.

 

Exhibit B


(c)    Tenant shall be obligated to pay the difference between (i) the Final Project Cost Proposal, as adjusted for any Tenant Change Proposal, and (ii) the Tenant Improvement Allowance ( “Tenants Contribution”) as set forth in this Section 10:

(i)    Prior to commencing construction of the Expansion Premises Work, based upon the Final Project Cost Proposal, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a written statement of the amount of Tenant’s Contribution (if any).

(ii)    Tenant shall pay such Tenant’s Contribution to Landlord as construction of the Expansion Premises Work progresses, in proportion to the amount such estimated Tenant’s Contribution bears to the entire Final Project Cost Proposal (as adjusted for any Tenant Change Proposal), within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord’s statement. On a monthly frequency, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a detailed payment requisition (“Payment Requisition”) for all costs incurred by Contractor to construct the Expansion Premises Work, as modified by approved Change Orders.

(iii)    If Tenant fails to pay any amount when due pursuant to this Section 10, then (A) Landlord may (but without the obligation to do so) advance such funds on Tenant’s behalf, and Tenant shall be obligated to reimburse Landlord for the amount of funds so advanced on its behalf; and (B) in any event, Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies set forth in the Lease for nonpayment of rent (including, but not limited to, the right to interest at the prevailing prime rate of interest as published in the Money Rates section of The Wall Street Journal or as established by any successor or alternate national financial publication plus four percent (4%), but in no event higher than the maximum rate permitted by law (the “Default Rate”) and the right to assess a late charge), and for purposes of any litigation instituted with regard to such amounts the same will be considered rent.

(d)    Landlord shall maintain a reasonable accounting system that enables Tenant to readily identify Landlord’s expenses, costs of goods, and use of funds in connection with the Expansion Premises Work. Tenant and its authorized representatives shall have the right to audit, examine and make copies of or extracts from all financial and related records (in whatever form they may be kept, whether written, electronic, or other) relating to or pertaining to the Expansion Premises Work kept by or under the control of Landlord, including, but not limited to those kept by Landlord, its employees, agents, assigns, successors, and subcontractors. Such records shall include, but not be limited to, accounting records, written policies and procedures; subcontract files (including proposals of successful and unsuccessful bidders, bid recaps, etc.); all paid vouchers including those for out-of-pocket expenses; other reimbursement supported by invoices; ledgers; journals; original estimates; estimating work sheets; contract amendments and change order files; backcharge logs and supporting documentation; insurance documents; payroll documents; timesheets; memoranda; and correspondence. Landlord shall keep full and detailed accounts and shall exercise such controls as may be necessary for the proper financial

 

Exhibit B


management of the Expansion Premises Work (including such information as may be reasonably necessary to identify and equitably allocate any cost- savings applicable to the Expansion Premises Work which Landlord achieves). Within sixty (60) days following the date on which the Expansion Premises Work is completed, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a final and detailed accounting of all actual costs of the Expansion Premises Work paid by Landlord. Tenant shall have the right to audit the books, records, and supporting documents of Landlord to the extent necessary to determine the accuracy of such accounting during normal business hours after giving Landlord at least ten (10) business days prior written notice. Tenant shall bear the cost of such audit, unless such audit discloses that Landlord has overstated the total of such costs by more than four percent (4%) of the actual amount of such costs, in which event Landlord shall pay the cost of Tenant’s audit. Any such audit must be conducted, if at all, within sixty (60) days after Landlord delivers such accounting to Tenant. Landlord shall cause its Contractor to deal directly with Tenant and Tenant’s appointed agents and representatives (but with the right of Landlord to participate) with respect to the exercise of Tenant’s audit rights under this Expansion Premises Work Letter.

 

11.

Inspection; Construction Meetings. Tenant and Tenant’s Architect and Tenant’s Representative shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to inspect the Expansion Premises Work from time to time throughout the course of construction in order to determine whether or not such work complies with the approved Expansion Premises Plans and other requirements of this Expansion Premises Work Letter (except for minor adjustments made necessary by field conditions), so long as such parties do not materially interfere with ongoing tasks and complies with all of the Contractor’s safety procedures. Landlord shall promptly correct at Landlord’s expense any material deviations from the Expansion Premises Plans of which Tenant gives Landlord notice, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Expansion Premises Work Letter. Tenant or Tenant’s Representative shall be invited as far in advance as possible to all material construction meetings relating to the Expansion Premises Work.

 

12.

Change Orders. Tenant may request changes in the final Expansion Premises Plans from time to time during construction of the Expansion Premises Work by submitting a written request describing any proposed change to Landlord (a “Tenant Change Proposal”). Any Tenant Change Proposal must be approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any increase or decrease in the cost of the Expansion Premises Work which results from a Tenant Change Proposal, if implemented, shall be added to or subtracted from the Final Project Cost Proposal, as the case may be. However, the cost of any Change Orders necessitated by compliance with applicable legal requirements or conditions on the Property shall be Landlord’s sole cost and expense. Landlord shall give notice back to Tenant responding to the Tenant Change Proposal within three (3) calendar days after Landlord’s receipt thereof, specifying the estimated effect, if any, in the cost of the Expansion Premises Work and the First Expansion Target Date and/or Second Expansion Target Date, whichever is or are applicable, which would result from the subject Tenant Change Proposal, as determined by Landlord reasonably and in good faith based on cost and time estimation methods customarily utilized in the construction industry (the “Landlord’s Proposed Pricing/Timing Adjustment”). Tenant shall give notice back to Landlord approving or disapproving Landlord’s Proposed Pricing/Timing Adjustment within three (3) days after Tenant’s receipt thereof. If Tenant

 

Exhibit B


  approves Landlord’s Proposed Pricing/Timing Adjustment, the subject Tenant Change Proposal shall become a change order and be incorporated into the final Expansion Premises Plans executed in the construction of the Expansion Premises Work (a “Change Order”). Tenant shall be responsible for any actual increase in cost of construction caused by Change Orders (up to the amount set forth in Landlord’s Proposed Pricing/Timing Adjustment which shall be approved by Tenant) provided such amount results, after all other adjustments, to an increase in the Final Project Cost. If Tenant disapproves or does not timely respond to the Landlord’s Proposed Pricing/Timing Adjustment, then the Parties shall work together to arrive at an acceptable Proposed Pricing/Time Adjustment to the Tenant Change Proposal and in furtherance thereof adjust cost estimates, contributions and completion dates in connection with the Expansion Premises Work. Landlord shall not be authorized to make any other material changes in the final Expansion Premises Plans without Tenant’s consent in writing.

 

13.

Tel/Data Work. Tenant, at Tenant’s cost, may engage vendors and contractors (selected by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord) (collectively, “Tel/Data Contractors”) for the performance of any data/telecommunications cabling, wiring or systems required by Tenant for the Premises (collectively, “Tel/Data Work”), provided that all structured cabling, wiring, low voltage work and work to bring such utilities to the buildings shall be included as part of Expansion Premises Work. The Tel/Data Work shall be performed no sooner than the date this Lease is signed, (the “Tel/Data Period”). The Tel/Data Contractors shall work in harmony and not interfere with the Contractor and its agents and contractors in performing their work or with any other tenants and occupants of the Building. If at any time the performance of the Tel/Data Work would cause or threaten to cause such disharmony or interference, Landlord, in its sole discretion, shall have the right upon twenty-four (24) hours written notice to Tenant, to postpone the Tel/Data Work. The Tel/Data Contractors shall not enter the Premises prior to the Commencement Date unless and until each of them shall furnish such assurances to Landlord, including but not limited to, insurance coverages, and waivers of lien as Landlord shall require to protect Landlord against any loss, casualty, liability, liens or claims.

 

14.

Sustainability. Landlord is committed to conservation and energy efficiency. Landlord and Tenant believe it is in their mutual best interest that the Building and Premises be operated and maintained in a manner that is environmentally responsible, fiscally prudent, and provides a safe and productive work environment. Landlord shall not be obligated with respect to this Section 14 if such costs must be paid by Landlord and not by Tenant and other tenants through Operating Expenses or otherwise.

 

15.

Effect of Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between this Expansion Premises Work Letter and the Lease, the terms of this Expansion Premises Work Letter shall prevail.
