1.Capitalized Terms.  All capitalized terms when used herein shall have the same meaning as is given such terms in the Lease unless expressly superseded by the terms of this Third Amendment.

2.Modification of Premises.  Effective as of the date which is six (6) months following the later of (a) July 1, 2020 and (b) the date upon which Landlord delivers all of the Third Expansion Premises to Tenant in the condition required by this Third Amendment (the "Third Expansion Commencement Date"), Tenant shall lease from Landlord and Landlord shall lease to Tenant the Third Expansion Premises.  Landlord anticipates delivering and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver possession of the Third Expansion Premises to Tenant on or about July 1, 2020.  Consequently, effective upon the Third Expansion Commencement Date, the Existing Premises shall be increased to include the Third Expansion Premises.  Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Lease, such addition of the Third Expansion Premises to the Existing Premises shall, effective as of the Third Expansion Commencement Date, increase the size of the Premises to approximately 106,414 rentable square feet.  The Existing Premises and the Third Expansion Premises may hereinafter collectively be referred to as the "Premises".  Effective as of the Third Expansion Commencement Date, all references in the Lease, as amended, to the Building shall mean (i) Building E when the context applies to Building E or any portion of the Premises located in Building E, (ii) Building J when the context applies to Building J or any portion of the Premises located in Building J, (iii) Building F when the context applies to Building F or any portion of the Premises located in Building F, and (iv) each of Building E, Building J and Building F when the context applies to all of such buildings; provided; however, if casualty damage affects only one Building, the termination rights of the parties under Article 11 of the Original Lease shall apply only to the portion of the Premises in such Building (in which event the rent, security deposit and other amounts herein related to square footage and the definition of "Building" shall be correspondingly revised) and after the expiration of the Lease Term as to the Existing Premises, the Building shall mean only Building F and the Premises shall mean only the Third Expansion Premises.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord has not delivered possession of the Third Expansion Premises in the “Delivery Condition” (as that term is defined in Section 1 of Exhibit B), on or before (a) October 1, 2020, then, as Tenant's sole remedy for such delay, other than the right to specific performance, the date Tenant is otherwise obligated to commence payment of rent as to the Third Expansion Space shall be delayed by one (1) day for each two (2) days that the delivery date is delayed beyond such date, or (b) January 1, 2021, then Tenant shall also have the right to terminate this Third Amendment by written notice thereof to Landlord, whereupon any monies previously paid or deliveries previously made by Tenant to Landlord under this Third Amendment shall be promptly returned to Tenant, which dates shall be extended to the extent of any delays in delivery of possession caused by (a) Tenant delays, or (b) events of Force Majeure (which Force Majeure delays shall not exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate).

ninety-sixth (96th) full calendar month following the Third Expansion Commencement Date (the "Third Expansion Expiration Date"), unless sooner terminated as provided in the Lease, as hereby amended.  The period of time commencing on the Third Expansion Commencement Date and terminating on the Third Expansion Expiration Date, shall be referred to herein as the "Third Expansion Term."  At any time during the Third Expansion Term, Landlord may deliver to Tenant a notice substantially in the form as set forth in Exhibit C attached to the Original Lease, as a confirmation only of the information set forth therein, which Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord within ten (10) days of receipt thereof.   For purposes of this Third Amendment, the term “Third Expansion Year” shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Third Expansion Term; provided, however, that the first (1st) Third Expansion Year shall commence on the Third Expansion Commencement Date and end on the last day of the month in which the first anniversary of the Third Expansion Commencement Date occurs (unless the Third Expansion Commencement Date is the first (1st) day of a calendar month, in which event the first Third Expansion Year shall end on the day immediately preceding the first anniversary of the Third Expansion Commencement Date), and the second and each succeeding Third Expansion Year shall commence on the first day of the next calendar month; and further provided that the last Third Expansion Year shall end on the Third Expansion Expiration Date.

3.2.Option Term for Third Expansion Premises.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Lease, Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that the option to extend the Lease Term currently set forth in the Lease (i.e., Section 2.2 of the Original Lease, as modified by Section 3.2 of the Second Amendment) shall continue to apply to the Existing Premises, and shall only apply to the Existing Premises.  Tenant shall have an option to extend the Third Expansion Term for the Third Expansion Premises pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.2 only.  

3.2.1Option Right for Third Expansion Premises.  Landlord hereby grants to the Original Tenant, and its Permitted Assignees, as defined in the Lease, one (1) option to extend the Third Expansion Term with respect to the Third Expansion Premises only for a period of eight (8) years (the "Option Term"), which option shall be irrevocably exercised only by written notice delivered by Tenant to Landlord not more than twelve (12) months nor less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the then Third Expansion Term, provided that the following conditions (the "Option Conditions") are satisfied:  (i) as of the date of delivery of such notice, Tenant is not in default under the Lease, after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period; (ii) Tenant has not previously been in default under the Lease, after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, more than twice in the twelve (12) month period prior to the date of Tenant's attempted exercise; and (iii) the Lease then remains in full force and effect.  Landlord may, at Landlord's option, exercised in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, waive any of the Option Conditions in which case the option, if otherwise properly exercised by Tenant, shall remain in full force and effect.  Upon the proper exercise of such option to extend, and provided that Tenant satisfies all of the Option Conditions (except those, if any, which are waived by Landlord), the Third Expansion Term, as it applies to the Third Expansion Premises, shall be extended for a period of eight (8) years.  The rights contained in this Section 3.2 shall be personal to Original Tenant and any Permitted Assignees, and may be exercised by Original Tenant or such Permitted Assignees (and not by any assignee, sublessee or other Transferee, of Tenant's interest in the Lease).

3.2.2Option Rent.  The annual Rent payable by Tenant during the Option Term (the "Option Rent") shall be equal to the "Fair Rental Value," as that term is defined below, for the Third Expansion Premises as of the commencement date of the Option Term.  The "Fair Rental Value," as used in this Third Amendment, shall be equal to the annual rent per rentable square foot (including additional rent and considering any "base year" or "expense stop" applicable thereto), including all escalations, at which tenants (pursuant to leases consummated within the twelve (12) month period preceding the first day of the Option Term), are leasing non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity space which is not significantly greater or smaller in size than the subject space, with a comparable level of improvements (excluding any property that Tenant would be allowed to remove from the Third Expansion Premises at the termination of the Lease), for a comparable lease term, in an arm's length transaction, which comparable space is located in the "Comparable Buildings," as that term is defined in this Section 3.2.2, below (transactions satisfying the foregoing criteria shall be known as the "Comparable Transactions"), taking into consideration the following concessions (the "Concessions"):  (a) rental abatement concessions, if any, being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; (b) tenant improvements or allowances provided or to be provided for such comparable space, and taking into account the value, if any, of the existing improvements in the subject space, such value to be based upon the age, condition, design, quality of finishes and layout of the improvements and the extent to which the same can be utilized by a general office/lab user other than Tenant; and (c) other reasonable monetary concessions being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; provided, however, that in calculating the Fair Rental Value, no consideration shall be given to the fact that Landlord is or is not required to pay a real estate brokerage commission in connection with Tenant's exercise of its right to extend the Third Expansion Term, or the fact that landlords are or are not paying real estate brokerage commissions in connection with such comparable space.  The Concessions shall be reflected in the effective rental rate (which effective rental rate shall take into consideration the total dollar value of such Concessions as amortized on a straight-line basis over the applicable term of the Comparable Transaction (in which case such Concessions evidenced in the effective rental rate shall not be granted to Tenant)) payable by Tenant.  The term “Comparable Buildings” shall mean the Building and those other life sciences buildings which are comparable to the Building in terms of age (based upon the date of completion of construction or major renovation of to the building), quality of construction, level of services and amenities, size and appearance, and are located in Hayward, California and the surrounding commercial area.

3.2.3Determination of Option Rent.  In the event Tenant timely and appropriately exercises an option to extend the Third Expansion Term, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord's determination of the Option Rent within thirty (30) days thereafter.  If Tenant, on or before the date which is ten (10) days following the date upon which Tenant receives Landlord's determination of the Option Rent, in good faith objects to Landlord's determination of the Option Rent, then Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon the Option Rent using their best good-faith efforts.  If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within ten (10) days following Tenant's objection to the Option Rent (the "Outside Agreement Date"), then Tenant shall have the right to withdraw its exercise of the option by delivering written notice thereof to Landlord within five (5) days thereafter, in which event Tenant's right to extend the Lease pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be of no further force or effect.  If Tenant does not withdraw its exercise of the extension option, each party shall make a separate determination of the Option Rent, as the case may be, within ten (10) days after the Outside Agreement Date, and such determinations shall

be submitted to arbitration in accordance with Sections 3.2.3.1 through 3.2.3.7, below.  If Tenant fails to object to Landlord's determination of the Option Rent within the time period set forth herein, then Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted Landlord's determination of Option Rent.  

3.2.3.1Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one arbitrator who shall be a real estate appraiser who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the appraisal of other class A life sciences buildings located in the Hayward market area.  The determination of the arbitrators shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord's or Tenant's submitted Option Rent is the closest to the actual Option Rent, taking into account the requirements of Section 3.2.2 of this Third Amendment, as determined by the arbitrators.  Each such arbitrator shall be appointed within fifteen (15) days after the Outside Agreement Date.  Landlord and Tenant may consult with their selected arbitrators prior to appointment and may select an arbitrator who is favorable to their respective positions.  The arbitrators so selected by Landlord and Tenant shall be deemed "Advocate Arbitrators."

3.2.3.2The two (2) Advocate Arbitrators so appointed shall be specifically required pursuant to an engagement letter within ten (10) days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed Advocate Arbitrator to agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator ("Neutral Arbitrator") who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth hereinabove for qualification of the two Advocate Arbitrators, except that neither the Landlord or Tenant or either parties' Advocate Arbitrator may, directly or indirectly, consult with the Neutral Arbitrator prior or subsequent to his or her appearance.  The Neutral Arbitrator shall be retained via an engagement letter jointly prepared by Landlord's counsel and Tenant’s counsel.

3.2.3.3The three arbitrators shall, within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the Neutral Arbitrator, reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use Landlord's or Tenant's submitted Option Rent, and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof.

3.2.3.4The decision of the majority of the three arbitrators shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant.  

3.2.3.5If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an Advocate Arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the Outside Agreement Date, then either party may petition the presiding judge of the Superior Court of Alameda County to appoint such Advocate Arbitrator subject to the criteria in Section 3.2.3.1 of this Third Amendment, or if he or she refuses to act, either party may petition any judge having jurisdiction over the parties to appoint such Advocate Arbitrator.

3.2.3.6If the two (2) Advocate Arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint the Neutral Arbitrator, then either party may petition the presiding judge of the Superior Court of Alameda County to appoint the Neutral Arbitrator, subject to criteria in Section 3.2.3.1 of this Third Amendment, or if he or she refuses to act, either party may petition any judge having jurisdiction over the parties to appoint such arbitrator.

3.2.3.7The cost of the arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant equally.

2.5

Failure to Disburse the Tenant Improvement Allowance.  To the extent that Landlord fails to make payments from the Tenant Improvement Allowance or HVAC Allowance in accordance with the terms of this Tenant Work Letter, and such amounts remain unpaid for thirty (30) days after notice from Tenant, then without limiting Tenant's other remedies under the Lease, Tenant may, after Landlord's failure to pay such amounts within five (5) business days after Tenant's delivery of a second notice from Tenant delivered after the expiration of such 30-day period, pay the same and deduct the amount thereof from the Rent next due and owning under the Lease.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during either the 30-day or 5-day period set forth above, Landlord (i) delivers notice to Tenant that it disputes any portion of the amounts claimed to be due, and (ii) pays any amounts not in dispute, Tenant shall have no right to offset any amounts against rent, but may institute proceedings to recover such amounts from Landlord.

SECTION 3

CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS

3.1

Selection of Architect.  Tenant shall retain an architect/space planner (the "Architect") approved in advance by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) to prepare the Final Space Plan and Final Working Drawings as provided in Sections 3.2 and 3.3, below.  Landlord hereby approves Ware Malcomb or CAS as the Architect.  Tenant shall retain the engineering consultants or design/build subcontractors designated by Tenant and reasonably approved in advance by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (the "Engineers") to prepare all plans and engineering working drawings relating to the structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, lifesafety, and sprinkler work in the Third Expansion Premises, which work is not part of the Base Building.  All such plans and drawings shall comply with the drawing format and specifications reasonably determined by Landlord, and shall be subject to Landlord's reasonable approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  Tenant and Architect shall verify, in the field, the dimensions and conditions as shown on the relevant portions of the Base Building plans, and Tenant and Architect shall be solely responsible for the same, and Landlord shall have no responsibility in connection therewith.  Landlord's review of any plans or drawings as set forth in this Section 3, shall be for its sole purpose and shall not imply Landlord's review of the same, or obligate Landlord to review the same, for quality, design, Code compliance or other like matters.  

3.2

equipment and specifications, including, without limitation, Title 24 calculations, electrical requirements and special electrical receptacle requirements for the Third Expansion Premises, to enable the Engineers and the Architect to complete the "Final Working Drawings" (as that term is defined below) in the manner as set forth below.  Upon the approval of the Final Space Plan by Landlord and Tenant, Tenant shall promptly cause the Architect and the Engineers to complete the architectural and engineering drawings for the Third Expansion Premises, and Architect shall compile a fully coordinated set of architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing working drawings in a form which is sufficiently complete to allow all of Tenant's Agents to bid on the work and to obtain all applicable permits (collectively, the "Final Working Drawings") and shall submit the same to Landlord for Landlord's approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.  Tenant shall supply Landlord with four (4) copies signed by Tenant of such Final Working Drawings.  Landlord shall advise Tenant within seven (7) business days after Landlord's receipt of the Final Working Drawings for the Third Expansion Premises (five (5) business days for re-submissions) if the same is unsatisfactory or incomplete in any respect (provided that, except in the case of re-submissions, if the scope of such Final Working Drawings are such that Landlord cannot reasonably complete its review in such period, Landlord will inform Tenant, and such period will be extended five (5) additional business days).  If Tenant is so advised, Tenant shall promptly cause the Final Working Drawings to be revised in accordance with such review and any disapproval of Landlord in connection therewith.  If Landlord fails to respond to or approve of the Final Working Drawings or any re-submission thereof within the foregoing period after Landlord’s receipt of the Final Working Drawings or any re-submission, Tenant may submit a notice (the “Final Working Drawings Notice”) with the following words in bold font, all capitalized: “FINAL NOTICE: FAILURE TO RESPOND IN TWO (2) BUSINESS DAYS CONSTITUTES APPROVAL BY LANDLORD OF THE FINAL WORKING DRAWINGS.”   Failure of Landlord to respond to or approve of the Final Working Drawings or any re-submission thereof within two (2) business days after Landlord’s receipt of the Final Working Drawings Notice will constitute approval by Landlord of the Final Working Drawings.

3.5

Approved Working Drawings.  The Final Working Drawings shall be approved by Landlord (the "Approved Working Drawings") prior to the commencement of construction of the Third Expansion Premises by Tenant.  Concurrently with Tenant's delivery of the Final Working Drawings to Landlord for Landlord's approval, Tenant may submit the same to the appropriate municipal authorities for all applicable building permits.  Tenant hereby agrees that neither Landlord nor Landlord's consultants shall be responsible for obtaining any building permit or certificate of occupancy for the Third Expansion Premises and that obtaining the same shall be Tenant's responsibility; provided, however, that Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant in executing permit applications and performing other ministerial acts reasonably necessary to enable Tenant to obtain any such permit or certificate of occupancy.  No changes, modifications or alterations in the Approved Working Drawings may be made without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

4.2.2.4.3

General Terms.  Certificates for all insurance carried pursuant to this Section 4.2.2.4 shall be delivered to Landlord before the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements and before the Contractor's equipment is moved onto the site.  All such policies of insurance must contain a provision that the company writing said policy will endeavor to give Landlord thirty (30) days prior written notice of any cancellation or lapse of the effective date or any reduction in the amounts of such insurance.  In the event that the Tenant Improvements paid for by Landlord are damaged by any cause during the course of the construction thereof, Tenant shall immediately repair the same at Tenant's sole cost and expense.  Tenant's Agents shall maintain all of the foregoing insurance coverage in force until the Tenant Improvements are fully completed, except for any Products and Completed Operation Coverage insurance required by Landlord, which is to be maintained for three (3) years following completion of the work.  Such insurance shall provide that it is primary insurance as respects the owner and that any other insurance maintained by owner is excess and noncontributing with the insurance required hereunder.  The requirements for the foregoing insurance shall not derogate from the provisions for indemnification of Landlord by Tenant under Section 4.2.2.2 of this Tenant Work Letter.

4.2.3Governmental Compliance.  The Tenant Improvements shall comply in all respects with the following:  (i) all state, federal, city or quasi-governmental laws, codes, ordinances and regulations, as each may apply according to the rulings of the controlling public official, agent or other person; (ii) applicable standards of the American Insurance Association (formerly, the National Board of Fire Underwriters) and the National Electrical Code; and (iii) building material manufacturer's specifications.

4.2.4Inspection by Landlord.  Landlord shall have the right to inspect the Tenant Improvements at all times, provided however, that Landlord's failure to inspect the Tenant Improvements shall in no event constitute a waiver of any of Landlord's rights hereunder nor shall Landlord's inspection of the Tenant Improvements constitute Landlord's approval of the same.  Should Landlord reasonably disapprove any portion of the Tenant Improvements, on the grounds that the construction is defective or fails to comply with the Approved Working Drawings, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of such disapproval and shall specify the items disapproved.  Any such defects or deviations shall be rectified by Tenant at no expense to Landlord, provided however, that in the event a defect or deviation exists that materially adversely affects the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating and air conditioning or life-safety systems of the Building, the structure or exterior appearance of the Building or any other tenant's use of such other tenant's leased premises, Landlord may, take such action as Landlord reasonably deems necessary, at Tenant's expense and without incurring any liability on Landlord's part, to correct any such defect, deviation and/or matter, including, without limitation, causing the

cessation of performance of the construction of the Tenant Improvements until such time as the defect, deviation and/or matter is corrected to Landlord's reasonable satisfaction.

4.2.5Meetings.  Commencing upon the date Tenant begins to plan the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall hold weekly meetings at a reasonable time, with the Architect and the Contractor (once retained) regarding the progress of the preparation of Approved Working Drawings and the construction of the Tenant Improvements, and Landlord and/or its agents shall receive prior notice of, and shall have the right to attend, all such meetings, and, upon Landlord's request, certain of Tenant's Agents shall attend such meetings.  In addition, minutes shall be taken at all such meetings, a copy of which minutes shall be promptly delivered to Landlord.  One such meeting each month shall include the review of Contractor's current request for payment, if any.

4.3

Notice of Completion; Copy of Record Set of Plans.  Within ten (10) days after completion of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall cause a valid Notice of Completion to be recorded in the office of the Recorder of the county in which the Building is located in accordance with Section 8182 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor statute, and shall furnish a copy thereof to Landlord upon such recordation.  If Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may execute and file the same on behalf of Tenant as Tenant's agent for such purpose, at Tenant's sole cost and expense.  At the conclusion of construction, (i) Tenant shall cause the Architect and Contractor (x) to update the Approved Working Drawings as necessary to reflect all changes made to the Approved Working Drawings during the course of construction, (y) to certify to the best of their knowledge that the "record-set" of as-built drawings are true and correct, which certification shall survive the expiration or termination of the Lease, and (z) to deliver to Landlord two (2) sets of copies of such record set of drawings (hard copy and CAD files) within ninety (90) days following Substantial Completion, and (ii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of all warranties, guaranties, and operating manuals and information relating to the improvements, equipment, and systems in the Third Expansion Premises.  Within fifteen (15) days after request by Tenant following the Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord will acknowledge its approval of the Tenant Improvements (provided that such approval has been granted) by placing its signature on a Contractor’s Certificate of Substantial Completion fully executed by the Architect, Contractor and Tenant.  Landlord’s approval shall not create any contingent liabilities for Landlord with respect to any latent quality, design, Code compliance or other like matters that may arise subsequent to Landlord’s approval.

5.3

Time is of the Essence in This Tenant Work Letter.  Unless otherwise indicated, all references herein to a "number of days" shall mean and refer to calendar days.  If any item requiring approval is timely disapproved by Landlord, the procedure for preparation of the document and approval thereof shall be repeated until the document is approved by Landlord.

5.4

Tenant's Lease Default.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Lease or this Tenant Work Letter, if any default by Tenant under the Lease or this Tenant Work Letter occurs at any time on or before the substantial completion of the Tenant Improvements and such default remains uncured ten (10) days following Landlord's notice of such default to Tenant, then in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to Landlord pursuant to the Lease, Landlord shall have the right to withhold payment of all or any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance.

5.5

Landlord Caused Delays.  Base Rent as to the Third Expansion Premises shall be abated for the number of days of actual delay of the substantial completion of the Tenant Improvements in the Third Expansion Premises to the extent caused by (a) a "Landlord Caused Delay," as that term is defined, below, or (b) “Coronavirus Delay,” as that term is defined in Section 5.6 below, but only to the extent such Landlord Caused Delay or Coronavirus Delay causes the substantial completion of the Tenant Improvements to occur after the date which is six (6) months days following the delivery date.  As used herein, "Landlord Caused Delay" shall mean actual delays in the substantial completion of the Premises to the extent resulting from interference (when judged in accordance with industry custom and practice) with Tenant's construction of the Tenant Improvements to the extent caused by (i) Landlord's failure to timely approve or disapprove any matter requiring Landlord's approval pertaining to the Tenant Improvements within the time periods set forth above or if not specified, within a reasonable period of time; (ii) Landlord's failure to timely disburse the Tenant Improvement Allowance or HVAC Allowance; (iii) material and unreasonable interference by Landlord with substantial completion of the Third Expansion Premises if such interference (A) objectively precludes or delays the construction of Tenant Improvements therein or any portion thereof, and (B) relates to access by Tenant to the Third Expansion Premises or any of the Building's facilities (including loading docks and freight elevators) or services and utilities (including temporary power and parking areas as provided herein) during normal construction hours, or the use thereof during normal construction hours; or (iv) Landlord’s failure to complete the Removal Work on or before the Third Expansion Commencement Date.  If Tenant contends that a Landlord Caused Delay has occurred, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of the event which constitutes such Landlord Caused Delay.  Tenant will additionally use reasonable efforts to mitigate the effects of any Landlord Caused Delay through the re-sequencing or re-scheduling of work, if feasible, but this sentence will not be deemed to require Tenant to incur overtime or after-hours costs unless Landlord agrees in writing to bear such costs.  In addition, Tenant shall endeavor to provide notice to Landlord when Tenant becomes aware of any expected or potential Landlord Caused Delays prior to any such delay actually occurring, in order to allow Landlord to attempt to mitigate such potential delay.  If such actions, inaction or circumstance described in the notice (the "Landlord Delay Notice") are not cured by Landlord within one (1) business day of Landlord’s receipt of the Landlord Delay Notice and if such action, inaction or circumstance otherwise qualify as a Landlord Caused Delay, then a Landlord Caused Delay shall be deemed to have occurred commencing as of the date of Landlord’s receipt of the Landlord Delay Notice and ending as of the date such delay ends.
