Tenant is responsible for all costs associated with the design and construction of permanent improvements to the Premises (and Property to the extent required by the City of Boulder,as described in subsection (C) below), and may use the TI Allowance towards payment of these hard and soft costs. Tenant shall provide Landlord with final invoices, lien releases and certificates of occupancy (if required) or other City of Boulder sign offs on a percent completion basis. Provided that no default by Tenant then exists, Landlord shall have thirty (30) days after receipt thereof to remit portions of the TI Allowance owed to Tenant, expect to the extant Landlord reasonably disputes the payment.

In addition to oversight and approval rights, Landlord is entitled to conduct at its own expense, an independent structural review prior to commencement of demolition or construction work and take any additional steps or require reasonable modification of Tenant's  proposed plans to ensure that any proposed Tenant Improvement will not jeopardize the structural integrity of the Premises and Building. To the extent Landlord renders services on Tenant's behalf, Landlord shall charge a market rate-construction management fee for any services rendered. The preliminary revised space plan, with one revision, shall be provided at Landlord's sole cost and expense to Tenant (not as part of the TI Allowance).





C.
City of Boulder Upgrade. Should Tenant's tenant improvement work trigger the City of Boulder to require additional work to the Premises or Property, as a condition to issuance of any permit Tenant must obtain to complete its tenant improvements, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the cost of such work regardless of whether such work relates to the scope of tenant improvement work contemplated by Tenant. Tenant shall inform Landlord of any additional required work the City of Boulder requires and shall coordinate the completion of such additional work with Landlord.

6.  Operating Expenses. Any cap on any component of the Operating Expenses established in Section 5 of the Fourth Amendment is lifted. The 2017 annual Operating Expenses are estimated to be $4.75 per rentable square foot, subject to change based upon actual cost.

Each party agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from any loss or cost suffered or incurred by it as a result of the other's representation herein being inaccurate.

11. Counterparts, Facsimile Signature. This Fifth Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original and all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same instrument.
