The Company will also pay its pro rata share of the Landlord’s annual operating expenses associated with the additional space, calculated as set forth in the Lease, as well as a property management fee equal to 3% of the then-current base rent each month. The Landlord will provide $603,700 in improvements to the additional space. Under the Lease Amendment, the Company will pay a security deposit of $52,320 to be held until the end of the expiration or termination of Company’s obligations under the Lease. The term of the Lease Amendment will continue through October 31, 2023, the same date as for the premises originally leased under the Lease, subject to the Company’s renewal option set forth in the Lease.

5.9712 Premises Term; Termination Option. The provisions of Section 2.4 and the first paragraph of Section 3 of the Existing Lease shall apply solely to the 9708 Premises. For clarification purposes, the Termination Option described in Section 3.1 of the Existing Lease shall apply to all of the Premises (i.e., both the 9708 Premises and the 9712 Premises), provided, however, that Tenant may exercise the Termination Option, if at all, simultaneously with respect to the entire Premises (i.e., both the entire 9708 Premises and the entire 9712 Premises) in
2
accordance with Section 3.1 of the Existing Lease, but Tenant shall not have the right to exercise the Termination Option with respect to only a portion of the Premises. With respect to the 9712 Premises, the Term of the Lease for the 9712 Premises (the “9712 Premises Term”) shall commence on the 9712 Term Commencement Date (as defined in Section 6.2 of this Amendment) and end on the Term Expiration Date, subject to earlier termination of the Lease as provided in the Lease and to extension pursuant to the Options.
6.9712 Tenant Improvements.
6.1.The provisions of Article 4 and Exhibit B of the Existing Lease shall apply solely to the 9708 Premises. The provisions of this Article 6 and the 9712 Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 (the “9712 Work Letter”) shall apply solely to the 9712 Premises. Neither this Article 6 nor the 9712 Work Letter shall apply to improvements performed in any additional premises added to the Premises, other than the 9712 Tenant Improvements in the 9712 Premises, at any time or from time to time after the Amendment Execution Date, whether by any options under the Lease or otherwise; or to any portion of the Premises or any additions to the Premises in the event of a renewal or extension of the original Term, whether by any options under the Lease or otherwise.
6.2.With respect to the 9712 Premises, the “9712 Term Commencement Date” shall be the earliest of (a) June 1, 2016 (the “Estimated 9712 Term Commencement Date”), (b) the day the work described in the 9712 Approved Plans (as defined in the 9712 Work Letter) (the “9712 Tenant Improvements”) is Substantially Complete after possession of the 9712 Premises has been delivered to Tenant, and (c) the day that Tenant commences its business operations in the 9712 Premises. Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord written acknowledgement of the 9712 Term Commencement Date within ten (10) days after the occurrence of the 9712 Term Commencement Date in the form attached as Exhibit C to the Existing Lease. Failure to execute and deliver such acknowledgement, however, shall not affect the 9712 Term Commencement Date or Landlord’s or Tenant’s liability under the Lease. Failure by Tenant to obtain validation by any medical review board or other similar governmental licensing of the 9712 Premises required for the Permitted Use by Tenant shall not serve to extend the 9712 Term Commencement Date. For purposes of this Amendment, the term “Substantially Complete” or “Substantial Completion” means that the 9712 Tenant Improvements are substantially complete in accordance with the 9712 Approved Plans and this Amendment, except for minor punch list items.
6.3.Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense cause the 9712 Tenant Improvements to be constructed in the 9712 Premises, provided that Landlord shall provide to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance equal to Six Hundred Three Thousand Seven Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($603,700.00) (based upon Fifty and No/100 Dollars ($50.00) per square foot of Rentable Area of the 9712 Premises (the “9712 TI Allowance”). The 9712 TI Allowance may be applied to the costs of (a) construction, (b) project review by Landlord (which fee shall be the actual costs incurred by Landlord in its review not to exceed one percent (1%) of the 9712 TI Allowance), (c) commissioning of mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems by a licensed, qualified commissioning agent hired by Tenant, and review of such party’s commissioning report by a licensed, qualified commissioning agent hired by Landlord, (d) space planning, architect, engineering and other related professional or consulting services
3
performed by third parties hired by, but unaffiliated with, Tenant, (e) building permits and other taxes, fees, charges and levies by Governmental Authorities for permits, approvals or for inspections of the 9712 Tenant Improvements, and (f) costs and expenses for labor, material, equipment and fixtures, including but not limited to wiring, information technology and telecommunications systems. In no event shall the 9712 TI Allowance be used for (v) the cost of work that is not authorized by the 9712 Approved Plans or otherwise approved in writing by Landlord, (w) payments to Tenant or any affiliates of Tenant, (x) the purchase of any furniture, personal property or other non-building system equipment, (y) costs resulting from any default by Tenant of its obligations under the Lease or (z) costs that are recoverable by Tenant from a third party (e.g., insurers, warrantors, or tortfeasors).
6.4.Tenant shall have until December 1, 2017 to expend the unused portion of the 9712 TI Allowance, after which date Landlord’s obligation to fund such costs shall expire. In no event shall any unused 9712 TI Allowance entitle Tenant to a credit against Rent payable under the Lease. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (a) a certificate of occupancy for the 9712 Premises suitable for the Permitted Use, and (b) a Certificate of Substantial Completion in the form of the American Institute of Architects document G704, executed by the project architect and the general contractor.
6.5.Prior to entering upon the 9712 Premises for any reason prior to the 9712 Term Commencement Date, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord evidence satisfactory to Landlord that insurance coverages required of Tenant under the provisions of Article 23 of the Existing Lease are in effect with respect to the 9712 Premises, and such entry shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Lease other than the payment of Base Rent, Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes, the Property Management Fee or utilities for the 9712 Premises, which payment obligations shall commence on the 9712 Rent Commencement Date (as defined below).
7.Condition of 9712 Premises. The provisions of Article 5 of the Existing Lease shall apply solely to the 9708 Premises. With respect to the 9712 Premises, Landlord shall deliver the 9712 Premises with base Building systems (including mechanical, electrical, plumbing and life safety in good working order as of the date upon which Landlord first delivers the 9712 Premises to Tenant for performance of the 9712 Tenant Improvements (the “9712 Premises Delivery Date”), provided that Tenant shall deliver written notice of any failure of the base Building systems to be in good working order to Landlord within six (6) months after the 9712 Premises Delivery Date, and as Tenant’s sole remedy for such failure, Landlord shall promptly commence making such repairs reasonably necessary to correct the failure described in Tenant’s written notice (the “9712 Base Building System Obligation”), and provided, further, the foregoing shall not apply to any such systems within the Premises to the extent such systems are or will be installed, replaced, supplemented, modified or repaired as part of the 9712 Tenant Improvements. In addition, as of the 9712 Term Commencement Date, Landlord shall have completed the work set forth in Exhibit B-3 to this Amendment (the “9712 Landlord Work”) (which Exhibit B-3 shall apply solely to the 9712 Premises). Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the condition of the 9712 Premises, the 9712 Building or the Project, or with respect to the suitability of the 9712 Premises, the 9712 Building or the Project for the conduct of Tenant’s business.

Tenant acknowledges that (a) it is fully familiar with the condition of the 9712 Premises and agrees to take the same in its condition “as is” as of the 9712 Premises Delivery Date, and (b) Landlord shall have no obligation to alter or repair the 9712 Premises prior to Tenant’s initial occupancy of the 9712 Premises or otherwise prepare the 9712 Premises for Tenant’s initial occupancy or to pay for or construct any improvements to the 9712 Premises, except with respect to the 9712 Base Building System Obligation, the 9712 Landlord Work, and the 9712 TI Allowance, each as set forth in this Amendment, provided, however, that from and after the 9712 Term Commencement Date, Landlord shall have the repair and maintenance obligations for the 9712 Premises as expressly set forth in the this Amendment. Tenant’s taking of possession of the 9712 Premises shall, except as otherwise agreed to in writing by Landlord and Tenant, conclusively establish that the 9712 Premises, the 9712 Building and the Project were at such time in good, sanitary and satisfactory condition and repair.

In the event that the Term for the 9712 Premises commences or ends on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, then the Rent for such fraction of a month shall be prorated for such period on the basis of the number of days in the month and shall be paid at the then-current rate for such fractional month.
9.2.The provisions of the first paragraph of Section 9.2 of the Existing Lease shall apply solely to the 9708 Premises. With respect to the 9712 Premises, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first day of each calendar month of the Term, as Additional Rent, (a) commencing on the 9712 Rent Commencement Date, the Property Management Fee, (b) commencing on the first anniversary of the 9712 Term Commencement Date, Landlord’s good faith estimate of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share for the 9712 Premises of any increase of Operating Expenses over the Base Year with respect to the 9712 Building, the South Campus and the Project, as applicable, for such month and (c) commencing on the first anniversary of the 9712 Term Commencement Date, Landlord’s good faith estimate of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share for the 9712 Premises of any increase of Real Estate Taxes over the Base Year with respect to the 9712 Building, South Campus and the Project, as applicable, for such month. For purposes of the 9712 Premises only, the definition of Operating Expenses shall include the cost of utilities, including but not limited to water, supplied to the 9712 Building.
9.3.Commencing with the calendar year 2017, Landlord’s Statement to be furnished by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to Section 9.2(y) of the Existing Lease shall also include, with respect to the 9712 Premises, the actual Operating Expenses for the previous calendar year and the Base Year, and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share for the 9712 Premises of any increase in Operating Expenses for the previous calendar year over the Base Year.

10.9712 Premises Security Deposit.
10.1.The provisions of Section 2.6 shall apply solely to the 9708 Premises. With respect to the 9712 Premises, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord on or before the Amendment Execution Date an amount equal to Fifty-Two Thousand Three Hundred Twenty and 00/100 Dollars ($52,320.00) (the “Security Deposit”), which sum shall be held by Landlord as security
6
for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant with respect to the 9712 Premises during the period commencing on the 9712 Premises Delivery Date and ending upon the expiration or termination of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
10.2.If Tenant Defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease applicable to the 9712 Premises, including any provision relating to the payment of Rent, then Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default with respect to the 9712 Premises, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage that Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s default with respect to the 9712 Premises. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, then Tenant shall, within ten (10) days following demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount, and Tenant’s failure to do so shall be a material breach of the Lease. The provisions of this Article shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.
10.3.In the event of bankruptcy or other debtor-creditor proceedings against Tenant, the Security Deposit shall be deemed to be applied first to the payment of Rent and other charges due Landlord for the 9712 Premises for all periods prior to the filing of such proceedings.
10.4.Landlord may deliver to any purchaser of Landlord’s interest in the 9712 Premises the funds deposited hereunder by Tenant, and thereupon Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with respect to such deposit. This provision shall also apply to any subsequent transfers.
10.5.If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of the Lease to be performed by it with respect to the 9712 Premises, then the Security Deposit, or any balance thereof, shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord’s option, to the last assignee of Tenant’s interest hereunder) within thirty (30) days after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.
10.6.If the Security Deposit shall be in cash, Landlord shall hold the Security Deposit in an account at a banking organization selected by Landlord; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be required to maintain a separate account for the Security Deposit, but may intermingle it with other funds of Landlord. Landlord shall be entitled to all interest and/or dividends, if any, accruing on the Security Deposit. Landlord shall not be required to credit Tenant with any interest for any period during which Landlord does not receive interest on the Security Deposit.
10.7.The Security Deposit may be in the form of cash, a letter of credit or any other security instrument acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. Tenant may at any time, except when Tenant is in Default, deliver a letter of credit (the “L/C Security”) as the entire Security Deposit, as follows:
(a)If Tenant elects to deliver L/C Security, then Tenant shall provide Landlord, and maintain in full force and effect throughout the Term and until the date that is six
7
(6) months after the then-current Term Expiration Date, a letter of credit in the form of Exhibit C to this Amendment issued by an issuer reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, in the amount of the Security Deposit, with an initial term of at least one year. Landlord may require the L/C Security to be re-issued by a different issuer at any time during the Term if Landlord reasonably believes that the issuing bank of the L/C Security is or may soon become insolvent; provided, however, Landlord shall return the existing L/C Security to the existing issuer immediately upon receipt of the substitute L/C Security. If any issuer of the L/C Security shall become insolvent or placed into FDIC receivership, then Tenant shall immediately deliver to Landlord (without the requirement of notice from Landlord) substitute L/C Security issued by an issuer reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, and otherwise conforming to the requirements set forth in this Article. As used herein with respect to the issuer of the L/C Security, “insolvent” shall mean the determination of insolvency as made by such issuer’s primary bank regulator (i.e., the state bank supervisor for state chartered banks; the OCC or OTS, respectively, for federally chartered banks or thrifts; or the Federal Reserve for its member banks). If, at the Term Expiration Date, any Rent remains uncalculated or unpaid, then (i) Landlord shall with reasonable diligence complete any necessary calculations, (ii) Tenant shall extend the expiry date of such L/C Security from time to time as Landlord reasonably requires and (iii) in such extended period, Landlord shall not unreasonably refuse to consent to an appropriate reduction of the L/C Security. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord’s legal costs (as estimated by Landlord’s counsel) in handling Landlord’s acceptance of L/C Security or its replacement or extension.
(b)If Tenant delivers to Landlord satisfactory L/C Security in place of the entire Security Deposit, Landlord shall remit to Tenant any cash Security Deposit Landlord previously held.
(c)Landlord may draw upon the L/C Security, and hold and apply the proceeds in the same manner and for the same purposes as the Security Deposit, if (i) an uncured Default exists with respect to the 9712, (ii) as of the date forty-five (45) days before any L/C Security expires (even if such scheduled expiry date is after the Term Expiration Date) Tenant has not delivered to Landlord an amendment or replacement for such L/C Security, reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, extending the expiry date to the earlier of (1) six (6) months after the then-current Term Expiration Date or (2) the date one year after the then-current expiry date of the L/C Security, (iii) the L/C Security provides for automatic renewals, Landlord asks the issuer to confirm the current L/C Security expiry date, and the issuer fails to do so within ten (10) business days, (iv) Tenant fails to pay (when and as Landlord reasonably requires) any bank charges for Landlord’s transfer of the L/C Security or (v) the issuer of the L/C Security ceases, or announces that it will cease, to maintain an office in the city where Landlord may present drafts under the L/C Security (and fails to permit drawing upon the L/C Security by overnight courier or facsimile). This Section 10.7(c) does not limit any other provisions of the Lease allowing Landlord to draw the L/C Security under specified circumstances.
(d)Tenant shall not seek to enjoin, prevent, or otherwise interfere with Landlord’s draw under L/C Security, even if it violates the Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the only effect of a wrongful draw would be to substitute a cash Security Deposit for L/C Security, causing Tenant no legally recognizable damage. Landlord shall hold the proceeds of any draw in the same manner and for the same purposes as a cash Security Deposit. In the event of a wrongful draw, the parties shall cooperate to allow Tenant to post replacement L/C Security
8
simultaneously with the return to Tenant of the wrongfully drawn sums, and Landlord shall upon request confirm in writing to the issuer of the L/C Security that Landlord’s draw was erroneous.
(e)If Landlord transfers its interest in the 9712 Premises, then Tenant shall at Tenant’s expense, within five (5) business days after receiving a request from Landlord, deliver (and, if the issuer requires, Landlord shall consent to) an amendment to the L/C Security naming Landlord’s grantee as substitute beneficiary. If the required Security Deposit changes while L/C Security is in force, then Tenant shall deliver (and, if the issuer requires, Landlord shall consent to) a corresponding amendment to the L/C Security.
11.9712 Parking.

This 9712 Work Letter (this “9712 Work Letter”) is made and entered into as of the ____ day of March, 2016, BMR-MEDICAL CENTER DRIVE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord), and GLYCOMIMETICS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), and is attached to and made a part of that certain First Amendment to Lease dated as of March _____, 2016 (as the same may be amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Amendment”), by and between Landlord and Tenant for the Premises located on the second (2nd) floor of the building at 9712 Medical Center Drive in Rockville, Maryland. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Lease.
1.General Requirements.
1.1.Authorized Representatives.
(a)Landlord designates, as Landlord’s authorized representative (“Landlord’s Authorized Representative”), (a) Tim Stoll as the person authorized to initial plans, drawings, approvals and to sign change orders pursuant to this 9712 Work Letter, and (b) an officer of Landlord as the person authorized to sign any amendments to this 9712 Work Letter, the Amendment or the Lease. Tenant shall not be obligated to respond to or act upon any such item until such item has been initialed or signed (as applicable) by the appropriate Landlord’s Authorized Representative. Landlord may change either Landlord’s Authorized Representative upon one (1) business day’s prior written notice to Tenant.
(b)Tenant designates [_______] (“Tenant’s Authorized Representative”) as the person authorized to initial and sign all plans, drawings, change orders and approvals pursuant to this 9712 Work Letter. Landlord shall not be obligated to respond to or act upon any such item until such item has been initialed or signed (as applicable) by Tenant’s Authorized Representative. Tenant may change Tenant’s Authorized Representative upon one (1) business day’s prior written notice to Landlord.
1.2Schedule. The schedule for design and development of the 9712 Tenant Improvements, including the time periods for preparation and review of construction documents, approvals and performance, shall be in accordance with a schedule to be prepared by Tenant (the “9712 Schedule”), which 9712 Schedule shall be an estimate of such time periods and shall be extended as reasonably necessary as provided herein (provided, however, that in no event shall any such extension of time periods in the 9712 Schedule change the Estimated 9712 Term Commencement Date, the 9712 Term Commencement Date, the Term Expiration Date or the 9712 Rent Commencement Date unless mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties or pursuant to a provision of this 9712 Work Letter Tenant shall prepare the 9712 Schedule so that it is a reasonable schedule for the completion of the 9712 Tenant Improvements. The 9712 Schedule shall clearly identify all activities requiring Landlord participation, including specific dates and time periods when Tenant’s contractor will require access to areas of the Project outside of the 9708 Premises or the 9712 Premises. As soon as the 9712 Schedule is completed,
B-2-1
Tenant shall deliver the same to Landlord for Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such Schedule shall be approved or disapproved by Landlord within ten (10) business days after delivery to Landlord. Landlord’s failure to respond within such ten (10) business day period shall be deemed approval by Landlord. If Landlord disapproves the Schedule, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of its objections to such Schedule, and the parties shall confer and negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the Schedule. The Schedule shall be subject to adjustment as mutually and reasonably agreed upon in writing by the parties or as expressly provided in this 9712 Work Letter.
1.3Tenant’s Architects, Contractors and Consultants. The architect, engineering consultants, design team, general contractor and subcontractors responsible for the construction of the 9712 Tenant Improvements shall be selected by Tenant, which selection shall be provided to Landlord and approved by Landlord, which approval Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. Landlord agrees that (a) Perkins and Will, The M Group Architects & Interior Architects, INTEC Group, Arium|AE Architecture and Planning, and VA-Spaces, shall be acceptable architectural firms, (b) AHA Consultants shall be an acceptable engineering firm, and (c) Sprectrum Contracting Corporation, Clune Construction Company, Heidenberger Construction, Inc., Buck Construction, Partners Contracting, Harvey-Cleary Builders, DFS Construction, and Gilbane, Inc. shall be acceptable construction firms. All Tenant contracts related to the 9712 Tenant Improvements shall provide that Tenant may assign such contracts and any warranties with respect to the 9712 Tenant Improvements to Landlord at any time.
2. 9712 Tenant Improvements. All 9712 Tenant Improvements shall be performed by Tenant’s contractor, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense (subject to Landlord’s obligations with respect to any portion of the 9712 TI Allowance) and in accordance with the 9712 Approved Plans (as defined below), the Amendment and this 9712 Work Letter. To the extent that the total projected cost of the 9712 Tenant Improvements (as projected by Landlord) exceeds the 9712 TI Allowance (such excess, the “Excess 9712 TI Costs”), Landlord shall pay the 9712 TI Allowance on a pari passu basis with Tenant, in the same proportion that the 9712 TI Allowance bears to the total projected cost of the 9712 Tenant Improvements. By way of example only, if the 9712 TI Allowance is $603,700.00, but the total projected cost of the 9712 Tenant Improvements is $703,700.00, such that the Excess 9712 TI Costs are equal to $100,000.00, then with respect to any cost incurred by Tenant for the 9712 Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall disburse an amount of the 9712 TI Allowance equal to 85.79% of such cost, which percentage is the ratio determined by dividing the total 9712 TI Allowance ($603,700.00) by the total project cost ($703,700.00). All material and equipment furnished by Tenant or its contractors as the 9712 Tenant Improvements shall be new or “like new,” and the Tenant Improvements shall be performed in a first-class, workmanlike manner, and the quality of the Tenant Improvements shall be of a nature and character not less than the 9712 Building standard. Tenant shall take, and shall require its contractors to take, commercially reasonable steps to protect the 9712 Premises during the performance of the 9712 Tenant Improvements, including covering or temporarily removing any window coverings so as to guard against dust, debris or damage.
2.1.Intentionally Deleted.
2.2.9712 Construction Plans. Tenant shall prepare final plans and specifications for the 9712 Tenant Improvements. As soon as such final plans and specifications (“9712
B-2-2
Construction Plans”) are completed, Tenant shall deliver the same to Landlord for Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All such 9712 Construction Plans shall be submitted by Tenant to Landlord in electronic .pdf, CADD and full-size hard copy formats, and shall be approved or disapproved by Landlord within ten (10) business days after delivery to Landlord. Landlord’s failure to respond within such ten (10) business day period shall be deemed approval by Landlord. If the 9712 Construction Plans are disapproved by Landlord, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of its objections to such 9712 Construction Plans, and the parties shall confer and negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the 9712 Construction Plans. Promptly after the 9712 Construction Plans are approved by Landlord and Tenant, two (2) copies of such 9712 Construction Plans shall be initialed and dated by Landlord and Tenant. Concurrent with the submission of the 9712 Construction Plans to Landlord for Landlord’s review, Tenant shall submit such 9712 Construction Plans to all appropriate Governmental Authorities for approval. The 9712 Construction Plans so approved, and all change orders specifically permitted by this 9712 Work Letter, are referred to herein as the “9712 Approved Plans.”
2.3.Changes to the 9712 Tenant Improvements. Any material changes to the 9712 Approved Plans (each, a “Change”) shall be requested and instituted in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.3 and shall be subject to the written approval of the non-requesting party in accordance with this 9712 Work Letter. Landlord hereby agrees that changes to furniture and office equipment layouts, finishes and power and cabling outlet locations shall not be considered a Change and shall not require Landlord review and approval.
(a)Change Request. Either Landlord or Tenant may request Changes after Landlord approves the 9712 Approved Plans by notifying the other party thereof in writing (a “Change Request”), which Change Request shall detail the nature and extent of any requested Changes, including (i) the Change, (ii) any modification of the 9712 Approved Plans and the 9712 Schedule, as applicable, necessitated by the Change. If the nature of a Change requires revisions to the 9712 Approved Plans, then the requesting party shall be solely responsible for the cost and expense of such revisions and any increases in the cost of the 9712 Tenant Improvements as a result of such Change. Change Requests shall be signed by the requesting party’s Authorized Representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not request Changes to the 9712 Approved Plans, unless such Changes are necessary to comply with Applicable Law, correct a construction defect or other error or omission in the 9712 Approved Plans, address an issue relating to human health or safety, or implement a Change requested by Landlord and agreed by Tenant.
(b)Approval of Changes. All Change Requests shall be subject to the other party’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The non-requesting party shall have five (5) business days after receipt of a Change Request to notify the requesting party in writing of the non-requesting party’s decision either to approve or object to the Change Request. The non-requesting party’s failure to respond within such five (5) business day period shall be deemed approval by the non-requesting party.
3.Completion of 9712 Tenant Improvements. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense (except for the 9712 TI Allowance), shall perform and complete the 9712 Tenant Improvements in all respects (a) in substantial conformance with the 9712 Approved Plans, (b) otherwise in

At all times during the period beginning with commencement of construction of the 9712 Tenant Improvements and ending with final completion of the 9712 Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall maintain, or cause to be maintained (in addition to the insurance required of Tenant pursuant to the Lease), property insurance insuring Landlord and the Landlord Parties, as their interests may appear. Such policy shall, on a completed values basis for the full insurable value at all times, insure against loss or damage by fire, vandalism and malicious mischief and other such risks as are customarily covered by the so-called “broad form extended coverage endorsement” upon all 9712 Tenant Improvements and the general contractor’s and any subcontractors’ machinery, tools and equipment, all while each forms a part of, or is contained in, the 9712 Tenant Improvements or any temporary structures on the 9712 Premises, or is adjacent thereto; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, insurance coverage
B-2-4
with respect to the general contractor’s and any subcontractors’ machinery, tools and equipment shall be carried on a primary basis by such general contractor or the applicable subcontractor(s). Tenant agrees to pay any deductible, and Landlord is not responsible for any deductible, for a claim under such insurance. Such property insurance shall contain an express waiver of any right of subrogation by the insurer against Landlord and the Landlord Parties, and shall name Landlord and its affiliates as loss payees as their interests may appear.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We establish in favor of Beneficiary our irrevocable and unconditional Letter of Credit numbered as identified above (the “L/C”) for an aggregate amount of $_______, expiring at __:00 p.m. on _______ or, if such day is not a Banking Day, then the next succeeding Banking Day (such date, as extended from time to time, the “Expiry Date”). “Banking Day” means a weekday except a weekday when commercial banks in _____________ are authorized or required to close.
We authorize Beneficiary to draw on us (the “Issuer”) for the account of _______ (the “Account Party”), under the terms and conditions of this L/C.
Funds under this L/C are available by presenting the following documentation (the “Drawing Documentation”): (a) the original L/C and (b) a sight draft substantially in the form of Attachment 1, with blanks filled in and bracketed items provided as appropriate. No other evidence of authority, certificate, or documentation is required.
Drawing Documentation must be presented at Issuer’s office at ____________ on or before the Expiry Date by personal presentation, courier or messenger service, or fax. Presentation by fax shall be effective upon electronic confirmation of transmission as evidenced by a printed report from the sender’s fax machine. After any fax presentation, but not as a condition to its effectiveness, Beneficiary shall with reasonable promptness deliver the original Drawing Documentation by any other means. Issuer will on request issue a receipt for Drawing Documentation.
We agree, irrevocably, and irrespective of any claim by any other person, to honor drafts drawn under and in conformity with this L/C, within the maximum amount of this L/C, presented
C-1
to us on or before the Expiry Date, provided we also receive (on or before the Expiry Date) any other Drawing Documentation this L/C requires.
We shall pay this L/C only from our own funds by check or wire transfer, in compliance with the Drawing Documentation.
If Beneficiary presents proper Drawing Documentation to us on or before the Expiry Date, then we shall pay under this L/C at or before the following time (the “Payment Deadline”): (a) if presentment is made at or before noon of any Banking Day, then the close of such Banking Day; and (b) otherwise, the close of the next Banking Day. We waive any right to delay payment beyond the Payment Deadline. If we determine that Drawing Documentation is not proper, then we shall so advise Beneficiary in writing, specifying all grounds for our determination, within one Banking Day after the Payment Deadline.
Partial drawings are permitted. This L/C shall, except to the extent reduced thereby, survive any partial drawings.
We shall have no duty or right to inquire into the validity of or basis for any draw under this L/C or any Drawing Documentation. We waive any defense based on fraud or any claim of fraud.
The Expiry Date shall automatically be extended by one year (but never beyond _____ (the “Outside Date”)) unless, on or before the date 90 days before any Expiry Date, we have given Beneficiary notice that the Expiry Date shall not be so extended (a “Nonrenewal Notice”). We shall promptly upon request confirm any extension of the Expiry Date under the preceding sentence by issuing an amendment to this L/C, but such an amendment is not required for the extension to be effective. We need not give any notice of the Outside Date.
Beneficiary may from time to time without charge transfer this L/C, in whole but not in part, to any transferee (the “Transferee”). Issuer shall look solely to Account Party for payment of any fee for any transfer of this L/C. Such payment is not a condition to any such transfer. Beneficiary or Transferee shall consummate such transfer by delivering to Issuer the original of this L/C and a Transfer Notice substantially in the form of Attachment 2, purportedly signed by Beneficiary, and designating Transferee. Issuer shall promptly reissue or amend this L/C in favor of Transferee as Beneficiary. Upon any transfer, all references to Beneficiary shall automatically refer to Transferee, who may then exercise all rights of Beneficiary. Issuer expressly consents to any transfers made from time to time in compliance with this paragraph.
Any notice to Beneficiary shall be in writing and delivered by hand with receipt acknowledged or by overnight delivery service such as FedEx (with proof of delivery) at the above address, or such other address as Beneficiary may specify by written notice to Issuer. A copy of any such notice shall also be delivered, as a condition to the effectiveness of such notice, to: ___________ (or such replacement as Beneficiary designates from time to time by written notice).
