The following rules govern Landlord's ap- proving construction, additions, and alterations or other improvements on the premises: a. Written Approval Required. No improvement may be constructed on the premises unless the plans, specifications, and proposed location of the im- provement has received Landlord's written approval and the improvement com- plies with the approved plans, specifications, and proposed location. No material addition to or alteration of any structure erected on the premises may be begun until plans and specifications covering the exterior of the proposed addition or al- teration have been first submitted to and approved by Landlord. b. Submission of Plans. Tenant must, at its own expense, engage a licensed landscape architect, architect, or engineer to prepare plans and specifica- tions for constructing improvements that require Landlord's approval under sub- paragraph a above. Tenant must submit two copies of detailed working drawings, plans, and specifications for erecting the statue or monument and the surrounding landscaping. If Tenant wishes to construct any other improvements or make any additions or alterations or improvements for which Landlord's approval is re- quired under Subsection (a) above, Tenant must submit two copies of detailed working drawings, plans, and specifications for any such projects for Landlord's approval before the project begins. 0 C. Landlord's Approval.

Any required changes or corrections must be made, and the plans resubmitted to Landlord, within 30 busi- ness days after the corrections or changes have been noted. Landlord's failure to object to the resubmitted plans and specifications within 10 business days consti- tutes its approval of the changes. Minor changes in work or materials not affect- ing the general character of the building project may be made at any time without Landlord's approval, but a copy of the altered plans and specifications must be furnished to Landlord. d. Exception to Landlord's Approval. The following items do not re- quire submission to, and approval by, Landlord: i. Minor repairs and alterations necessary to maintain existing structures and improvements in a useful state of repair and operation. ii. Changes and alterations required by an authorized public offi- cial with authority or jurisdiction over the buildings or improvements, to comply with legal requirements. e. Effect of Approval. Landlord's approval of any plans and specifi- cations applies only to the conformity of the plans and specifications to the gen- eral architectural plan for the premises, and Landlord may not unreasonably with- hold approval. Landlord's approval does not constitute approval of the architec- tural or engineering design, and Landlord, by approving the plans and specifica- tions, assumes no liability or responsibility for the architectural or engineering de- sign or for any defect in any improvement constructed from the plans or specifi- cations. 7.05. Ownership of Improvements and Fixtures. Any improvements, additions, alterations, and fixtures constructed, placed, or maintained on any part of the leased premises during the lease term are considered part of the real property of the premises and must remain on the premises and become Landlord's property when the lease terminates. 7.06. Riuht to Remove Improvements. Tenant may not remove any improve- ments on or to the premises without permission of the Landlord.

If any improvement constructed on the premises is damaged or destroyed by fire or any other casualty, regardless of the extent of the dam- age or destruction, Tenant must, within one month from the date of the damage or de- struction, begin to repair, reconstruct, or replace the damaged or destroyed improvement and pursue the repair, reconstruction, or replacement with reasonable diligence so as to restore the structure to substantially the condition it was in before the casualty. But if be- ginning or completing this restoration is prevented or delayed by war, civil commotion, acts of God, strikes, governmental restrictions or regulations, fire or other casualty, the time for beginning or completing the restoration (or both) will automatically be extended for the period of each such delay..

If such a mechanic's lien or materialman's lien is recorded against the premises or any buildings or improvements on them, Tenant must either cause it to be removed or, if Tenant in good faith wishes to contest the lien, take timely action to do so, at Tenant's sole expense.
