Rackspace Limited, a company registered in England & Wales (registered number 03897010) (the “Tenant”); and
It Is Agreed that:

| (a) | Words of one “gender” shall include the other two genders and words in the singular shall include the plural and vice versa. |
| (b) | The words “including” and “in particular” are to be construed as being by way of illustration or emphasis only and are not to be construed so as to limit the generality of the words preceding them. |
| (c) | If a party comprises two or more persons their obligations and liabilities are “joint and several”. |
| (d) | Reference to a “party” agreeing not to do or omit any act or thing shall also mean that party will not permit or knowingly suffer it to be done or omitted and will take all such steps as may reasonably be required to prevent it being done. |
| (e) | Any reference to a “Clause” is a reference to a clause of this Agreement and headings to this Agreement do not affect its interpretation and are for guidance only. |
| (f) | Any reference to an “enactment” includes any consolidation, re‑enactment or modification of the same and any subordinate legislation in force under the same. |
| (g) | Any reference to “value added tax” shall include any tax of a similar nature that may be substituted for or levied in addition to it. |
| 2. | Agreement for Lease |
In consideration of the Tenant's obligations under this Agreement and subject to its terms, the Landlord will grant and the Tenant will accept from the Landlord a lease of Phase 1 (the “Phase 1 Lease”), a lease of Phase 2 (the “Phase 2 Lease”), a lease of Phase 3 (the “Phase 3 Lease”), a lease of Phase 4 (the “Phase 4 Lease”) and a lease of Phase 5 (the “Phase 5 Lease”) together with the Operational Space and POP Room Space(s), as applicable, on the terms of this Agreement.
| 3. | Conditionality |
| 3.1. | Landlord and Tenant will work together reasonably and in good faith to mutually agree on the Site, pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Schedule 8. The terms of this Agreement and the obligations of the parties to it shall be conditional upon the Landlord Completing the Acquisition of the Site (defined in Clause 3.2, below) in accordance with Schedule 8. |
| 3.2. | Immediately upon the unconditional Completion of the Acquisition of a freehold interest in and to the Site by the Landlord, including the Landlord's delivery of the Registration Application Evidence to the Tenant, the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be in full force and effect (i.e., such provisions shall no longer be deemed to be conditional) relative to the Building and the rights, duties, and obligations of Tenant |
and Landlord under this Agreement with respect to the Building. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms and provisions set forth in this Clause 3 and in Clauses 4, 9, 10, 13.1(b), 16, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 31, 32, 33, and 34 and Schedule 8 shall be effective, in full force and effect, and binding upon the parties hereto from and after the date of this Agreement. The term “Completion of the Acquisition”, and similar phrases used in this Agreement with regard to a Site, shall mean and refer to Landlord having delivered to the Tenant, the Conveyance Evidence and Registration Application Evidence evidencing Landlord having acquired a freehold interest in and to the Site.
| 3.3. | Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Landlord does not Complete the Acquisition of a Site within three hundred sixty-five (365) calendar days after the effective date of this Agreement (the “Long Stop Acquisition Date”), Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Agreement (the “Acquisition Failure Termination Right”) by delivering written notice thereof to Landlord on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the Long Stop Acquisition Date, which notice of termination shall be effective fifteen (15) days after the giving of such notice, but which notice of termination shall be deemed ineffective if, within said 15-day period, Landlord Completes the Acquisition of the Site and delivers the Conveyance Evidence and the Registration Application Evidence to Tenant. In the event (a) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Clause 3, and (b) the Rackspace Design Contribution Payment (defined in Schedule 7, item C.6.) has theretofore been released to Tenant from the DCP Escrow (defined in Schedule 7, item C.6.), then the Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after such termination, pay the Rackspace Design Contribution Payment back to Landlord. Alternatively, in the event that (y) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Clause 3, and (z) the Rackspace Design Contribution Payment has not yet been released to Tenant from the DCP Escrow, then the DCP Escrow Agent shall return the Rackspace Design Contribution Payment to Landlord as set forth in Clause 7.D. of Schedule 7, once Landlord has provided a copy of Tenant's termination notice to the DCP Escrow Agent. In that regard, the Tenant shall (if required by DCP Escrow Agent in order to release the Rackspace Design Contribution Payment to Landlord), within thirty (30) days after such termination, submit notice to the DCP Escrow Agent notifying the DCP Escrow Agent that the DCP Escrow Agent is authorized to return the Rackspace Design Contribution Payment to Landlord. |
| 3.4. | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that one (1) or more potential Sites has been identified (by Landlord or Tenant or any of their agents or representatives designated herein or in another writing as having the authority to bind Landlord or Tenant, as applicable) during the search for a potential Site, any of which meets the Minimum Site Criteria (as described on Schedule 8) (any such potential Site, a “Default Criteria Site”), but the Tenant rejects all such Default Criteria Sites for any reason or no reason as set forth in Schedule 8, and Tenant exercises the Acquisition Failure Termination Right pursuant to and in accordance with Clause 3.3, above, then Tenant shall (in addition to reimbursement and/or release of the Rackspace Design Contribution Payment), within thirty (30) days after Tenant's receipt of all paid invoices therefor and other reasonable supporting documentation from Landlord, delivered by Landlord within forty-five (45) days after receipt of Tenant's termination notice, reimburse Landlord for the Pursuit Costs incurred by Landlord (and/or its affiliate(s)). Solely for purposes of determining whether Tenant is responsible for reimbursing Landlord for the Pursuit Costs as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, once Tenant has provided Landlord with approval to proceed with heads of terms for a potential Site, pursuant to Clause 1.2 of Schedule 8 of this Agreement (an “Approved Potential Site”), such Approved Potential Site shall thereafter be deemed to be a Default Criteria Site, regardless of whether such Approved Potential Site meets any or all of the Minimum Site Criteria, provided that, for avoidance of doubt, the foregoing terms of this sentence shall not limit, impair, modify, or otherwise affect Tenant's right to reject any Default Criteria Site for any reason or no reason as set forth in Schedule 8 or to exercise Tenant's Acquisition Failure Termination Right as set forth in this Clause 3.4. |
| 3.5. | From and after the later to occur of (i) the date that Landlord receives the Rackspace Design Contribution Payment (from Tenant or from the DCP Escrow Agent, as applicable) and, if applicable, the Pursuit Costs as set forth in Clause 3.4, above, and (ii) the effective date of such termination, this Agreement shall be deemed to have been terminated and shall be of no further force or effect, and neither party shall have any further obligation or liability to the other pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that no Default Criteria |
Sites have been identified by the parties at the time the Tenant exercises the Acquisition Failure Termination Right, then, in connection with such termination, Landlord and Tenant shall each be responsible to bear the Pursuit Costs incurred by such party (and/or its affiliates).
| 3.6. | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that Tenant has approved a Default Criteria Site, then such Default Criteria Site approved by Tenant (if it is still available for purchase) shall be deemed to have been mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant as the Site to be acquired by Landlord under Schedule 8, provided that the acquisition of such Site shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Schedule 8. |
| 4. | Design |
| 4.1. | Selection of Design Firms. The parties shall work together in good faith to mutually approve the design of the Building (the “Design”), as more particularly set forth in this Clause 4. Within thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement, the parties shall mutually select the designer(s) for the preparation of the Design (the designer(s) selected as aforesaid may be referred to herein, individually and collectively, as the “Design Firm”). Within fifteen (15) days after the date of this Agreement, Landlord shall issue requests for proposals regarding the Design of the Building. Landlord and Tenant shall mutually: (i) review bids and responses to the requests for proposals received by Landlord from any Design Firm with respect to the Design; and (ii) attend any interviews and/or meetings to be conducted with any Design Firm regarding the Building design. Landlord will provide at least four (4) Business Days' advance written notice to Tenant of any scheduled interviews and/or meetings with any Design Firm. The foregoing notwithstanding, the parties acknowledge and agree that such advance notice may not be practicable with respect to certain informal discussions or other unscheduled meetings, and in the event of any such informal discussion or unscheduled meeting, Landlord will use commercially-reasonable efforts to give Tenant advance notice thereof and, if Tenant is unable to attend any such informal discussion or unscheduled meeting, Landlord will inform Tenant of any significant issues or developments discussed as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. All design-related information furnished by Landlord or Tenant shall be of a suggestive nature only and shall not be construed to impose upon Landlord or Tenant the professional standard of care that would otherwise apply to a licensed architect or licensed engineer. |
| 4.2. | Goals of Design Process. |
| 1. | Landlord and Tenant shall work together to mutually agree upon the design concepts and design goals of the Building. Landlord and Tenant intend that Tenant will occupy: (a) computer room space within the Building in five (5) Phases, with each Phase consisting of not less than [*****] megawatts of available Critical Load Power and associated mechanical and electrical infrastructure and a corresponding amount of computer room space, to be set forth in the Base Specification-Final (hereinafter defined); and (b) certain operational, office, staging, and storage space within the Building (the “Operational Space”), to support the operation of Tenant's business therein, and the size, layout, location, configuration, and specifications of the Operational Space will be agreed upon and incorporated into the Base Specification-Final as part of the Design process. |
| 2. | Tenant and Landlord will, as part of the Design process, reasonably agree on the size, layout, location and configuration of each Phase, each of which will be sufficient to supply and support the utilization of approximately [*****] megawatts of Critical Load Power, based on the assumptions that Tenant will consume, on average, [*****] kilowatts of Critical Load Power per cabinet and that each such Phase will have an average power density of approximately [*****] watts per square foot of computer room space. The Base Specification-Final shall also include diverse duct banks serving the Building (the “Diverse Duct Banks”), as well as multiple conduits from each of the Building's points of entry to areas within each Phase, to be reasonably agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. |
| 3. | The Design Firm shall integrate, among other things, certain of Tenant's know-how regarding the design and operation of datacenters (“Tenant's Know-How”), including, without limitation, Tenant's program-level design concepts for its next generation datacenter(s) (the “Rackspace Program-Level Design Concepts”), with aspects of Digital's prototypical, first-class datacenter design. Additionally, |
without limiting any other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the following are Tenant's design goals for the Building (the “Rackspace Design Goals”) and that the parties will endeavour to incorporate or achieve, as applicable, each Rackspace Design Goal in the development and preparation of the Design:
| (i) | Flexibility to deliver power and cooling to where it is required within each Phase; |
| (ii) | Space plan on the assumption that Tenant will consume, on average, [*****] kW per cabinet, resulting in a power density of approximately [*****] watts per square foot of computer room space; |
| (iii) | Ability to implement computer room cooling distribution alterations that would address instances of higher rack power density(ies); |
| (iv) | Annualized power usage effectiveness (“PUE”) of [*****] or less within each Stage of the Building; and |
| (v) | Provision of sufficient space for operations and layout to be optimized to support operational efficiency. |
In addition, the parties hereto agree that innovative cooling design is a goal for the Design and, therefore, that the parties hereto will endeavour in good faith to incorporate mutually agreed-upon innovative cooling designs into the Design.
| 4.3. | Design Process. The Building design and pre-construction process (the “Design Process”) shall proceed as set forth in this Clause 4.3. The cumulative time period for the steps set forth in paragraphs (i)-(vi) below, as the same may be extended for dispute resolution between the parties or as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Design Period.” In the event that Tenant fails to provide written comments during any relevant time period set forth below for any step in the Design Process, and such failure continues for a period of three (3) additional Business Days after receipt of notice thereof from Landlord [notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, such notice shall be deliverable by email and telephone (which telephonic notice requirement may be satisfied by a voicemail message) to at least one (1) of Tenant's Representatives], Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the relevant Design Documents and Landlord shall nonetheless be authorized to provide Landlord's comments to the Design Firm and to proceed to the next step in the Design Process in the manner set forth herein below. In connection with the foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to notice and three (3) additional Business Days to provide written comments as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence no more than three (3) times during the Design Process. After the third such occurrence, the above-described deemed approval shall occur upon the passage of the relevant approval/comment date. The parties may, by mutual written agreement, extend the time period for any stage of the Design Process by up to fifteen (15) days. Tenant may, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, hire a third party to conduct an independent review of the Design Documents, or any of them (“Peer Review”), provided that: (1) such independent reviewer enters into a non-disclosure agreement, the form and content of which shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (2) the scope of the independent reviewer's comments shall be limited by the same parameters which are set forth below for the Tenant comments on the Design Document for the relevant period; and (3) the independent reviewer's comments on a Design Document shall be delivered within the time period set forth below for delivery of Tenant comments during the relevant Design Document period. For the avoidance of doubt, the Tenant comment period and any independent reviewer comment period shall run concurrently and not consecutively during each Design Document period set forth in paragraphs (i)-(vi) below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in item (3) above and the immediately preceding sentence, but, for avoidance of doubt, subject to the terms and conditions of items (1) and (2) above, provided Tenant issues written notice of its election to do so to Landlord within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Schematic Design and/or the Design Drawings, Tenant shall be granted an additional five (5) Business Days for Peer Review of the Schematic Design and/or the Design Drawings. In connection therewith, Landlord agrees that sufficient personnel of Landlord and/or one (1) or more Affiliates of Landlord (“Landlord Personnel”) shall be |
available during such additional five (5) Business Day time period to meet and confer regarding the relevant Design Documents.
(i)The Design Concept Period. Commencing on the first date on which Landlord enters into contract(s) with the Design Firm (consistent with the terms and provisions of Clause 4.1 above), Tenant, Landlord, and the Design Firm shall engage in a series of meetings (in person, via video conference or via conference call, as convenient to the parties and expedient to the Design Process) to agree upon the overall design concepts (the “Base Specification - Initial”) that represent the base outline/scope of the Program Document and the subsequent Design Documents, inclusive of and consistent with the intentions of the parties set forth in Clause 4.2, above, and Clause 5.5 of Schedule 8 attached hereto. The period of time commencing on the date specified in the preceding sentence and ending on the date on which Landlord and Tenant mutually agree upon the Base Specification-Initial (which the parties shall endeavour to complete within fifteen (15) Business Days) is referred to herein as the “Design Concept Period”. In connection with the foregoing: (a) Landlord and Tenant each agrees that sufficient personnel of Tenant and/or one (1) or more Affiliates of Tenant (“Tenant Personnel”) and sufficient Landlord Personnel shall be available to meet for all or significant portions of normal working hours on at least five (5) Business Days during the aforementioned 15 Business Day period, in order to meet and confer regarding, and agree upon, the Base Specification-Initial; and (b) without limiting the terms of the preceding item (a), upon delivery of at least five (5) Business Days' advance written notice by Tenant to Landlord [notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, such notice shall be deliverable by email and telephone (which telephonic notice requirement may be satisfied by a voicemail message) to Landlord's designated representatives using the following information: [*****] and [*****], Tenant will cause sufficient Tenant Personnel, and Landlord will cause sufficient Landlord Personnel and sufficient personnel of the Design Firm, to meet at Tenant's offices located at [*****] (or such other address designated by Tenant) for all or significant portions of normal working hours on up to three (3) consecutive Business Days during the aforementioned 15 Business Day period, in order to meet and confer regarding, and agree upon, the Base Specification-Initial.
(ii)The Program Period. Upon the conclusion of the Design Concept Period (i.e., when Landlord and Tenant agree in writing upon the Base Specification-Initial without comment), Landlord shall cause the Design Firm to prepare and deliver to Landlord a “Program Document” which describes the design parameters of the Project and reflects the Base Specification - Initial. Landlord shall endeavour to cause the Design Firm to prepare and deliver the Program Document within fifteen (15) Business Days after mutual agreement in writing upon the Base Specification - Initial. Landlord shall promptly deliver a copy of the Program Document to Tenant. Tenant shall provide Tenant's written comments on the Program Document to Landlord within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Program Document, which comments may only address issues in the Program Document which: (a) are inconsistent with the Base Specification - Initial; (b) are items contained in the Program Document which were not previously agreed upon in writing by Tenant and Landlord in the Design Concept Period; (c) are inconsistent with the Rackspace Program-Level Design Concepts and/or any Rackspace Design Goal*; or (d) do not incorporate the parties' agreements regarding the overall design concepts for the Project. Landlord agrees to make sufficient Landlord Personnel available during such ten (10) Business Day time period, in order to confer regarding the Program Document. Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the last of the Tenant comments on the Program Document, Landlord will review and confer with Tenant regarding the Tenant comments and provide any additional comments that Landlord may have on the Program Document, which comments may only address issues in the Program Document which: (w) are inconsistent with the Base Specification - Initial; (x) are items contained in the Program Document which were not previously agreed upon in writing by Tenant and Landlord in the Design Concept Period; (y) are inconsistent with the Rackspace Program-Level Design Concepts and/or the Rackspace Design Goals*; or (z) do not incorporate the parties' agreements regarding the overall design concepts for the Project. Tenant agrees that sufficient Tenant Personnel shall be available during such ten (10) Business Day time period to confer regarding the Program Document. Once Landlord and Tenant agree upon the Program Document and any revisions to be made thereto, Landlord shall submit the parties' agreed-upon collective comments on the Program Document to the Design Firm (such submittal anticipated to be within twenty (20) Business Days after Tenant's original receipt of the Program Document from Landlord). In the event Landlord and Tenant
do not agree upon the Program Document by the Outside Design Concept Date, and the Tenant does not timely exercise its Design Failure Termination Right with respect thereto, pursuant to and in accordance with Clause 32.2, below, then, subject to Tenant's right to choose the Default Design under said Clause 32.2, the failure of the Landlord and the Tenant to agree upon the Program Document will be deemed a dispute subject to dispute resolution pursuant to and in accordance with Clause 24, below.
* The parties acknowledge that the Program Period represents the last point at which objection rights exist with regard to the failure of any elements of the proposed Design to be consistent with the Rackspace Design Goals, but only to the extent the Program Document contains sufficient information and detail for the parties hereto to reasonably determine the existence of any such inconsistency [e.g., in the event that (aa) the Program Document includes sufficient information and detail to reflect a Design that, according to the Design Firm and consistent with industry standards for such calculation, would reasonably be expected to yield an annualized PUE in excess of [*****] (see Clause 4.2(3)(iv), above), and (bb) the Design is approved by Landlord and Tenant upon the conclusion of the Program Period phase (i.e., Landlord and Tenant agree upon the Program Document without comment or agree on any and all comments to be made thereto), the parties agree that neither may raise an objection (or withhold an approval) later in the process based solely on the inconsistency of the Design with the PUE prescribed as part of the Rackspace Design Goals (though, for avoidance of doubt, either party may object or withhold approval based on the inconsistency of the Design with the PUE reflected in the Program Document).
(iii)The Schematic Design Period. Landlord shall cause the Design Firm to prepare and deliver to Landlord a “Schematic Design” of the Building, which will depict the basic layouts and schemes of the Building based upon the Program Document and will incorporate the agreed-upon collective comments of Tenant and Landlord regarding the Program Document. Landlord shall endeavour to cause the Design Firm to complete and deliver the Schematic Design within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt by the Design Firm of the parties' agreed-upon collective comments on the Program Document. Landlord shall promptly deliver a copy of the Schematic Design to Tenant. Tenant shall provide Tenant's written comments on the Schematic Design to Landlord within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Schematic Design, which comments may only address issues in, or portions of, the Schematic Design which: (a) are inconsistent with concepts previously agreed upon in the Program Document; (b) are items contained in the Schematic Design which were not previously contained, or agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, in the Program Document; or (c) do not incorporate the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding the Program Document. Landlord agrees that sufficient Landlord Personnel shall be available during such five (5) Business Day time period to confer regarding the Schematic Design. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the last of the Tenant comments on the Schematic Design, Landlord will review and confer with Tenant regarding the Tenant comments and provide any additional comments that Landlord may have on the Schematic Design, which comments may only address issues in or portions of the Schematic Design which: (x) are inconsistent with concepts previously agreed upon in the Program Document; (y) are items contained in the Schematic Design which were not previously contained, or agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, in the Program Document; or (z) do not incorporate the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding the Program Document. Tenant agrees that sufficient Tenant Personnel shall be available during such five (5) Business Day time period to confer regarding the Schematic Design. Landlord shall then submit the parties' agreed-upon collective comments on the Schematic Design to the Design Firm (such submittal anticipated to be within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant's original receipt of the Schematic Design from Landlord).
(iv)The Design Development Period. Landlord shall cause the Design Firm to prepare and deliver to Landlord the “Design Drawings,” which will show more detailed engineering of the Building based upon the Schematic Design and will incorporate the agreed-upon collective comments of Tenant and Landlord regarding the Schematic Design. Landlord shall endeavour to cause the Design Firm to prepare and deliver the Design Drawings within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt by the Design Firm of the parties' agreed-upon collective comments on the Schematic Design. Landlord shall promptly deliver a copy of the Design Drawings to Tenant. Tenant shall provide to Landlord Tenant's written comments on the Design Drawings within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Design Drawings, which comments may only address issues in or portions of the Design Drawings which: (a) are inconsistent with concepts previously agreed upon in the
Schematic Design; (b) are items contained in the Design Drawings which were not previously contained, or agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, in the Schematic Design; or (c) do not incorporate the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding the Schematic Design. Landlord agrees that sufficient Landlord Personnel shall be available during such five (5) Business Day time period to confer regarding the Design Drawings. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the last of the Tenant comments, Landlord will review and confer with Tenant regarding the Tenant comments and provide any additional comments that Landlord may have on the Design Drawings, which comments may only address issues in or portions of the Design Drawings which: (x) are inconsistent with concepts previously agreed upon in the Schematic Design; (y) are items contained in the Design Drawings which were not previously contained, or agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, in the Schematic Design; or (z) do not incorporate the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding the Schematic Design. Tenant agrees that sufficient Tenant Personnel shall be available during such five (5) Business Day time period to confer regarding the Design Drawings. Landlord shall then submit the parties' agreed-upon collective comments on the Design Drawings to the Design Firm (such submittal anticipated to be within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant's original receipt of the Design Drawings from Landlord).
(v)The Permit Set Period. Landlord shall cause the Design Firm to prepare and deliver to Landlord a “Permit Set” of drawings of the Building, which will show more detailed engineering of the Building based upon the Design Drawings, which are intended to be submitted for the permitting process, and which will incorporate the agreed-upon collective comments of Tenant and Landlord regarding the Design Drawings. Landlord shall endeavour to cause the Design Firm to prepare and deliver the Permit Set within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt by the Design Firm of the parties' agreed-upon collective comments on the Design Drawings. Landlord shall promptly deliver a copy of the Permit Set to Tenant. Tenant shall provide to Landlord Tenant's written comments on the Permit Set within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Permit Set, which comments may only address issues in or portions of the Permit Set which: (a) are inconsistent with concepts previously agreed upon in the Design Drawings; (b) are items contained in the Permit Set which were not previously contained, or agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, in the Design Drawings; or (c) do not incorporate the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding the Design Drawings. Landlord agrees that sufficient Landlord Personnel will be available during such five (5) Business Day time period to confer regarding the Permit Set. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the last of the Tenant comments on the Permit Set, Landlord will review and confer with Tenant regarding the Tenant comments and provide any additional comments that Landlord may have on the Permit Set, which comments may only address issues in or portions of the Permit Set which: (x) are inconsistent with concepts previously agreed upon in the Design Drawings; (y) are items contained in the Permit Set which were not previously contained, or agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, in the Design Drawings; or (z) do not incorporate the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding the Design Drawings. Tenant agrees that sufficient Tenant Personnel shall be available during such five (5) Business Day time period to confer regarding the Permit Set. Landlord shall then submit the parties' agreed-upon collective comments on the Permit Set to the Design Firm (such submittal anticipated to be within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant's original receipt of the Permit Set from Landlord). It is the intent of Landlord and Tenant that the Permit Set to be submitted for the permitting process will be reflective of the Design Drawings as modified by the parties' agreed-upon collective comments provided pursuant to (iv) above and of the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding the initial Permit Set pursuant to this paragraph (v).
(vi)The Construction Document Period. Landlord shall cause the Design Firm to prepare and deliver to Landlord the “Construction Drawings” to be used by the Contractor to construct the Building and which will incorporate the agreed-upon collective comments of Tenant and Landlord regarding the Permit Set. Landlord shall endeavour to cause the Design Firm to prepare and deliver the Construction Drawings within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt by the Design Firm of the parties' agreed-upon collective comments on the Permit Set. Landlord shall promptly deliver a copy of the Construction Drawings to Tenant. It shall be unreasonable for Tenant to withhold its consent to the Construction Drawings if the Construction Drawings contain no material changes from the Permit Set and incorporate Tenant's and Landlord's agreed-upon comments regarding the Permit Set. If the Construction Drawings contain material changes from the Permit Set, or if the Construction Drawings fail to incorporate the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding
the Permit Set, then Tenant shall provide to Landlord Tenant's written comments on the Construction Drawings regarding such issues within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Construction Drawings, which comments may only address issues in or portions of the Construction Drawings which: (a) are materially inconsistent with concepts previously agreed upon in the Permit Set; (b) are items contained in the Construction Drawings which were not previously contained, or agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, in the Permit Set; or (c) do not incorporate the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding the Permit Set. Landlord agrees that sufficient Landlord Personnel shall be available during such five (5) Business Day time period to confer regarding the Construction Drawings. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the last of the Tenant comments, Landlord will review and confer with Tenant regarding the Tenant comments and provide any additional comments that Landlord may have on the Construction Drawings, which comments may only address issues or portions of the Construction Drawings which: (x) are materially inconsistent with the Permit Set; (y) are items contained in the Construction Drawings which were not previously contained, or agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, in the Permit Set; or (z) do not incorporate the parties' agreed-upon collective comments regarding the Permit Set. Tenant agrees that sufficient Tenant Personnel shall be available during such five (5) Business Day time period to confer regarding the Construction Drawings. Landlord shall then submit the parties' collective comments on the Construction Drawings (if any) to the Design Firm (such submittal anticipated to be within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant's original receipt of the Construction Drawings from Landlord). The Construction Drawings, as revised to reflect the parties' agreed-upon collective comments, shall be deemed annexed to this Agreement for Lease as the “Base Specification - Final”. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, including, without limitation, modifications to the Base Specification - Final which are required to comply with applicable Statutory Requirements, including applicable CDM Regulations (but subject to the terms and conditions of Clauses 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3), the Base Specification - Final shall not be modified without the prior written consent of Landlord and Tenant, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Program Document, the Schematic Design, the Design Drawings, the Permit Set, and the Construction Drawings (including the Base Specification - Final) are sometimes referred to in this Agreement, individually and collectively, as “Design Documents.”
(vii)Tenant's Requested Design Modifications. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each of the Design Documents, Tenant shall have the right to request variations, additions, deletions, and/or substitutions to the Design of the Building (each, a “Tenant's Requested Design Modification”), in writing to the Landlord which shall be subject to the Landlord's approval, provided that Landlord may withhold its approval regarding any Tenant's Requested Design Modification only for those reasons that Landlord may withhold its approval regarding a Tenant's Requested Modification under Clause 8.1 below. Landlord shall have five (5) Business Days to review and respond to Tenant regarding any Tenant's Requested Design Modification. If within said five (5) Business Days of receipt of any such Tenant's Requested Design Modification, the Landlord shall not have in writing approved or objected to such Tenant's Requested Design Modification giving its reasons (subject to the terms and conditions of this subclause (vii)), then such approval shall be deemed to have been given by the Landlord. Any dispute as to whether the Landlord is withholding approval pursuant to and in accordance with this Clause 4.3(vii) shall be agreed between the Landlord and the Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable after a written request so to do by one party to the other or in the event they cannot so agree shall be determined in accordance with Clause 24. Unless Landlord withholds its approval as aforesaid, then upon receipt of a Tenant's Requested Design Modification, the Landlord shall procure as soon as reasonably practicable the preparation of drawings and specifications showing in detail and in scope the Tenant's Requested Design Modification, which drawings and specifications are in this Agreement together called “Design Modification Plans”. The Design Modification Plans shall be submitted promptly to the Tenant for approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and if within five (5) Business Days of such request the Tenant shall not have in writing approved or reasonably objected to such request giving its reasons then such approval shall be deemed to have been given by the Tenant). Upon Tenant's approval, any such Design Modification Plans shall be incorporated into the relevant Design Documents. In the event any Tenant's Requested Design Modification, including any time period(s) relative to approval of any such Tenant's Requested Design Modification and/or any associated Design Modification Plans, causes any of the time periods of the Design Process provided for in this Clause 4.3 to be extended or delayed, then the Outside Design Date (defined in Clause 32.2 below) shall be delayed on a corresponding
day-for-day basis. In connection with the foregoing, should any Tenant's Requested Design Modification extend or delay any such time period(s) of the Design Process as aforesaid, Landlord shall, as soon as is reasonably practicable after acquiring actual knowledge of such delay or extension, notify Tenant in writing of the existence of such delay or extension. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant of any such delay or extension within ten (10) days after acquiring actual knowledge of such delay or extension, then such delay or extension shall automatically be deemed to be waived by Landlord for the period of such delay or extension occurring prior to the date of such notice.
(viii)Dispute Resolution During Design Process. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Clause 32.2, below (including, without limitation, the Tenant's right to choose the Default Design as set forth in Clause 32.2(2), below), in the event that the parties do not agree upon the collective comments that Landlord will submit to the Design Firm relative to any Design Document within the time frame(s) set forth above for that particular Design Document (subject to the terms of Clause 4.3(ii), above, regarding the Program Document), any such failure to agree on the collective comments shall be deemed a dispute subject to dispute resolution pursuant to and in accordance with Clause 24 below.
| 4.4. | Project Budget. |
| 1. | Not later than the end of the Design Concept Period, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a preliminary (rough order of magnitude) budget setting forth the estimated Shell Building Costs (and, to the extent reasonably determinable, other Development Costs) for the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works (the “Preliminary Project Budget”), based on the agreed-upon design concepts for the Building. Not later than the end of each of the Program Period, the Schematic Design Period, and the Design Development Period, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant an updated Preliminary Project Budget reflecting the additional concepts and greater detail relative to the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works that are set forth in the Program Document, the Schematic Design, and the Design Drawings, respectively. |
| 2. | Without limiting the foregoing, during the Permit Set Period described in Clause 4.3(v) above, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant for its approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, an updated Project budget (the “Advanced Project Budget”) for the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works as depicted in the Permit Set. The Advanced Project Budget shall incorporate: (a) the estimated maximum Shell Building Costs received from the Contractor and approved by Landlord for performance of the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works; (b) estimates (based on actual contracts where feasible) of all other Development Costs anticipated to be incurred in the performance of the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works; and (c) a general contingency for the Project equal to [*****] percent ([*****]%) of the total Advanced Project Budget (the “Project Contingency”). |
| 3. | Prior to the parties executing the Certificate Regarding Construction Drawings, Project Budget, and Construction Programme as described in Clause 4.6 below, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant, for Tenant's approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), a further revised and refined Advanced Project Budget setting forth the estimated Development Costs for the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works as depicted in the Base Specification - Final and associated job specifications (the “Advanced Project Budget-CD”). It shall be unreasonable for Tenant to withhold Tenant's approval of the Advanced Project Budget-CD due to an increase in the Project budget if the total amount of the proposed Advanced Project Budget-CD does not exceed the most recent approved Advanced Project Budget by more than [*****] percent ([*****]%) (excluding the budgeted costs of any items that were added to the scope of the work after the most recently approved Advanced Project Budget). The final Advanced Project Budget-CD, as approved by Tenant, shall be referred to as the “Project Budget.” |
| 4. | Any dispute as to whether the Tenant is withholding approval pursuant to and in accordance with this Clause 4.4 shall be agreed between the Landlord and the Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable |
after a written request so to do by one party to the other or in the event they cannot so agree shall be determined in accordance with Clause 24.
| 4.5. | Construction Programme. |
| 1. | Not later than the end of the Design Concept Period, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a preliminary schedule for the completion of the construction of the Building as provided for in this Agreement (the “Preliminary Construction Programme”), based on the agreed-upon design concepts for the Building. Not later than the end of each of the Program Period, the Schematic Design Period, and the Design Development Period, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant an updated Preliminary Construction Programme reflecting the additional concepts and greater detail relative to the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works that are set forth in the Program Document, the Schematic Design, and the Design Drawings, respectively. |
| 2. | Without limiting the foregoing, during the Permit Set Period described in Clause 4.3(v) above, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant for its approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, the Contractor's proposed schedule for the completion of the construction of the Building as provided for herein (as approved, the “Construction Programme”). It shall be unreasonable for Tenant to withhold approval of a Construction Programme relative to Stage 1 that provides for a Contract Time of no more than [*****] months. Conversely, it shall be reasonable for Tenant to reject any Construction Programme relative to Stage 1 that provides for a Contract Time of more than [*****] months. Further, it shall be unreasonable for Tenant to withhold approval of a Construction Programme relative to Stage 2 that provides for a scheduled Commencement Date (D) for Stage 2 that is the same as the Target Commencement Date (D) for Stage 2. Conversely, it shall be reasonable for Tenant to reject a Construction Programme relative to Stage 2 that provides for a Commencement Date (D) for Stage 2 that will occur after the Target Commencement Date (D) for Stage 2. As used herein, “Contract Time” shall mean that period of time (A) commencing on the date that is thirty (30) days after the first date upon which all of the following have occurred: (i) Landlord has received the Approvals; and (ii) the Certificate Regarding Construction Drawings, Project Budget and Construction Programme (hereinafter defined) has been fully executed and delivered by the parties, and (B) concluding on the date on which Landlord delivers Stage 1 to Tenant with all Commencement Date Conditions (A) satisfied in full. Landlord shall regularly update the Construction Programme at commercially reasonable intervals for each portion of the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works. Further, without limiting the terms and provisions of Clause 32 below, Landlord shall update and refine the Construction Programme at appropriate times during the construction process in the event of unforeseen site conditions, Force Majeure events, or any other events or circumstances requiring modification to the Construction Programme after the date hereof, and Landlord shall advise Tenant if it appears that the Construction Programme will exceed the Contract Time relative to Stage 1 or result in a Commencement Date (D) for Stage 2 that will occur after the Target Commencement Date (D) for Stage 2, and, in such event, shall make recommendations for corrective action. The parties acknowledge that the Construction Programme shall include the following “Key Milestones” to be achieved by Landlord in the design and construction of each Stage of the Building: (a) commencement of construction of the Building (i.e., pouring of foundation footings) and/or the Stage, as applicable; (b) ordering of the following long-lead equipment: (1) the engine generators; (2) the uninterruptible power supply units; and (3) the primary cooling equipment, e.g., cooling towers, packaged air-handling units, etc.; (c) practical completion of Shell Building Works and of each Stage, as applicable; (d) installation of the first engine generator; and (e) commencement of Level 3 commissioning. |
| 3. | Any dispute as to whether the Tenant is withholding approval pursuant to and in accordance with this Clause 4.5 shall be agreed between the Landlord and the Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable after a written request so to do by one party to the other or in the event they cannot so agree shall be determined in accordance with Clause 24. |
| 4.6. | Conclusion of Design Process. |
(i)Certificate Regarding Construction Drawings, Project Budget and Construction Programme. Promptly after the Construction Drawings, Project Budget, and Construction Programme have been agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, Landlord shall prepare, and the parties shall execute, a written certificate identifying the Construction Drawings and attaching, as exhibits, the Project Budget and Construction Programme (which may be referred to herein as the “Certificate Regarding Construction Drawings, Project Budget and Construction Programme”).
(ii)Intentionally Deleted.
(iii)Stage 2. While the original Construction Drawings, Project Budget, and Construction Programme shall be drafted to include each Phase, the parties acknowledge that, due to the time lapse between the planned construction of Stage 1 and Stage 2 and the potential impact upon design and pricing specifics, and/or due to any Tenant's Requested Design Modifications and/or any other design changes reasonably agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, the Base Specification-Final, Project Budget, and/or Construction Programme may need to be revised with regard to Stage 2 after the execution of the original Certificate Regarding Construction Drawings, Project Budget and Construction Programme. Accordingly, with regard to Stage 2, in the event that Landlord and Tenant have mutually agreed that the Base Specification-Final relative to Stage 2 will be modified by the parties in any material manner as set forth in this paragraph (iii), Landlord will, subject to Tenant's approval rights set forth herein below: (a) cause the Design Firm to revise and update the Base Specification-Final as necessary for Stage 2; (b) revise and update the Project Budget for Stage 2; and (c) revise and update the Construction Programme for Stage 2. Prior to Landlord taking any of the actions set forth in the preceding sentence, Tenant shall have the right to approve any revisions to: (x) the Construction Drawings which materially impact upon Stage 2 or a critical design element of Stage 2 or the Building, including, without limitation, any previously agreed-upon Rackspace Design Goal; (y) the Project Budget relative to Stage 2; and (z) the Construction Programme for Stage 2, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Following such approval and any resulting modifications to the Base Specification-Final, the Project Budget, and/or the Construction Programme as aforesaid, the parties shall execute another Certificate Regarding Construction Drawings, Project Budget and Construction Programme specific to the Stage 2 revised documents (the “Stage 2 Certificate Regarding Construction Drawings, Project Budget and Construction Programme”). Any dispute as to whether the Tenant is withholding approval pursuant to and in accordance with this Clause 4.6(iii) shall be agreed between the Landlord and the Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable after a written request so to do by one party to the other or in the event they cannot so agree shall be determined in accordance with Clause 24.
| 4.7. | Approvals. Landlord will prepare, or cause to be prepared, the necessary documentation and forms for, file for, and shall use commercially-reasonable, diligent endeavours to secure and will pay for (as a Development Cost), all Approvals necessary to the proper execution and completion of the Shell Building Works and Stage Works, all in accordance with the Construction Programme. Tenant shall be notified within five (5) Business Days after any application for an Approval has been filed, and a photocopy of each Approval shall be delivered to Tenant within five (5) Business Days after each such Approval is obtained. |
| 4.8. | Contractor. Landlord shall select and enter into a contract (the “Building Contract”) with a general contractor for the construction of the improvements represented by the Base Specification - Final. In connection therewith, prior to selecting the Contractor, Landlord will consult with, and reasonably consider any comments received from, Tenant with respect to the selection of the Contractor. |
| 5. | Stage 2 |
The Tenant may elect to delay the Target Date for Phase 4 (and, as a result, the Target Date for Phase 5) for up to [*****] after the Target Date specified for each such Phase in Schedule 6 attached hereto, by serving written notice thereof (“Tenant's Delay Notice”) on the Landlord no less than [*****] prior to the scheduled date of commencement of the Stage Works for Stage 2 and, as and to the extent applicable, those portions of the Shell Building Works attributable to Stage 2, which scheduled commencement date shall be set forth in
the Construction Programme. If Tenant elects to delay the Target Date for Phase 4 (and, as a result, Phase 5) as aforesaid, then, effective as of Commencement Date (D), an amount equal to the Delay Costs will automatically be added as a Development Cost attributable to Stage 2 and the Project Budget will automatically be increased in an amount equal to the Delay Costs. As used in this Agreement: (a) the term “Delay Costs” means the Delay Return applicable to the amount that results from subtracting (i) the sum of all Development Costs incurred in the development and construction of Stage 1 from (ii) the sum of all Development Costs incurred in the development and construction of the Building as of the date on which Tenant delivers Tenant's Delay Notice to Landlord (such amount, the “Stage 2 Interim Development Costs”); and (b) the term “Delay Return” means a return of [*****] per annum on the Stage 2 Interim Development Costs, relative to the time period commencing on the original Target Date for Phase 4 specified in Schedule 6 attached hereto and ending on the day immediately prior to the delayed Target Date for Phase 4.
| 6. | Execution of the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works |
| 6.1. | Landlord's obligations |
The Landlord shall procure the execution of the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works and each and every part of them (including for the avoidance of doubt any approved Tenant's Requested Modifications or other variations to the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works):
| (a) | in a good and substantial and workmanlike manner and according to good building practice generally accepted in England and Wales at the date the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works are performed; |
| (b) | using the reasonable skill care and diligence (assessed by reference to industry standards at the time of the design) in procuring the design of the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works as would be expected of a developer which is experienced in the development of buildings of the size, nature, and complexity of the Building; |
| (c) | using good-quality materials, goods and equipment, and in all events consistent with the materials, goods and equipment specified in the Base Specification - Final; |
| (d) | in accordance with and subject to: |
| (i) | the Approvals; |
| (ii) | all Statutory Requirements; |
| (iii) | the terms of this Agreement; |
| (iv) | the CDM Regulations; |
| (v) | any applicable Planning Permission and Planning Agreement; |
| (e) | in accordance with and so as to satisfy the performance specifications and all other requirements included or referred to in the Base Specification - Final; and |
| (f) | in accordance with the Construction Programme, subject to extension for Force Majeure events and Tenant's Delay. |
| 6.2. | Staging of Construction. Unless agreed to in writing by the parties hereto after the effective date of this Agreement, Landlord will construct the Building in two (2) stages, referred to herein as “Stage 1” and “Stage 2.” Stage 1 includes the Shell Building Works and Stage Works necessary to construct Phases 1, 2, and 3 and the Operational Space and POP Room(s) (as defined in the pertinent Lease(s)) supporting said Phases, and Stage 2 includes the Shell Building Works and Stage Works necessary to construct Phases 4 and 5 and the Operational Space and POP Room(s) supporting said Phases. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works for Stage 1 shall include, without limitation, installation of: (i) certain site work (some of which is located within the Site, and some of which may be located outside the boundaries of the Site) necessary to support Tenant's use of Phases 1, 2, and 3 as provided for in this Agreement and the Leases for such Phases, including, without limitation, construction of access roads, surface parking areas, storm drainage and shared storm water management facilities, and other infrastructure work; and (ii) the Diverse Duct Banks serving Phases 1, 2, and 3 and the Operational Space, all as shown on the Base Specification-Final and/or in the Approvals. The Shell Building Works and Stage Works for Stage 2 shall include, without limitation: (a) the installation of any remaining Diverse Duct Banks |
serving Phases 4 and 5; and (b) any remaining site work and improvements, all as shown on the Base Specification-Final and/or in the Approvals.
| 6.3. | Construction Meetings and Reports. Tenant, Tenant's Third-Party Project Manager (if and as applicable), and/or Tenant's other appointed representative(s) shall be invited to regularly-scheduled meetings between Landlord, the Design Firm, the MEP Contractor(s), the Contractor, and/or the Architect. Landlord will cause (by using commercially-reasonable, diligent endeavours to enforce the terms and provisions of the Building Contract providing for the same) the Contractor to provide, at least monthly, a progress report in a form, in sufficient detail, and of a character reasonably approved by Tenant, for the construction of the Building. Landlord shall promptly (and in no event more than five (5) Business Days after receipt) provide Tenant the monthly reports that Landlord receives from Contractor. Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord shall cause (by including same as requirements of the Building Contract) the Contractor to incorporate the following in the monthly progress reports received from the Contractor for the immediately preceding month: (i) the status of design and construction activities and the Construction Programme; (ii) an estimated percentage of completion of the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works; (iii) Development Costs with respect to which Landlord has theretofore made payments or received applications for payment, as well as any increase(s) or proposed increase(s) in the Project Budget; (iv) the list and status of all Change Orders; and (v) use of the Project Contingency under paragraph (iv) of Schedule 7 attached hereto. In addition, Landlord shall promptly deliver to Tenant any weekly status reports received from the Contractor, which may include, as applicable, (1) the status of design and construction activities and the Construction Programme, (2) an estimated percentage of completion of the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works, and (3) any acceleration schedules being undertaken to address schedule delays. |
| 6.4. | Landlord Personnel and Project Managers. All personnel used by Landlord and the Contractor in performance of the Shell Building Works and Stage Works shall be qualified by training and experience to perform their assigned tasks. Landlord shall assign one (1) or more project managers to the design and construction of the Building. [*****]shall be Landlord's initial project manager regarding the design of the Building. [*****] shall be Landlord's initial project manager regarding the construction of the Building. Landlord may replace and re-assign its project manager(s) hereunder upon five (5) days' prior written notice to Tenant, provided that Landlord shall not replace or re-assign the project manager(s) hereunder more than one (1) time, per Stage, during the design and construction of the Building without the prior written consent of Tenant, which consent may be granted or withheld in Tenant's sole and absolute discretion. The limitation on replacement or re-assignment of the project manager(s) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply if (i) any such project manager elects to terminate employment with Landlord and all Affiliates of Landlord or (ii) the employment of any such project manager is terminated by Landlord and all Affiliates of Landlord. |
| 6.5. | Tenant Representatives. Tenant has designated [*****] and [*****] as its initial “Tenant's Representatives,” each of whom is authorized to act on Tenant's behalf, and to bind Tenant, with respect to the design and construction of the Building. The email addresses and telephone numbers for Tenant's initial representatives are: (i) for [*****]; and (ii) for [*****]. Tenant may, at any time and in its sole and absolute discretion, (a) replace its designated representatives by providing written notice thereof to Landlord in accordance with Clause 31.3 and/or (b) designate one (1) or more third-party project managers for the Project (each, a “Third-Party Project Manager”), by providing written notice thereof to Landlord in accordance with Clause 31.3. Subject to the provisions of Clause 4.3, Tenant may, at its sole cost and expense, obtain independent review of the Design Documents by a separate architect, engineer, contractor, or cost estimator under contract to, or employed by, Tenant. |
| 6.6. | Subject to insurance requirements and reasonable rules and regulations regarding access consistent with industry standards, including but not limited to completion of onsite safety orientation classes conducted by Landlord and/or the Contractor, authorized representatives of Tenant, including, without limitation, any Third-Party Project Manager, shall have access to the Site for observation and inspection purposes, provided that such access shall not hinder or delay the progress of the Shell Building Works and/or Stage Works. Landlord may deny access to Tenant and its authorized representatives at times when access would slow the |
progress of the Shell Building Works or Stage Works or create safety concerns. In connection with, and subject to the, foregoing terms and conditions, Tenant's Third-Party Project Manager shall have the right to access and maintain an on-site presence at the Site during the construction of the Project. Such on-site presence will be limited to locations at the Site mutually and reasonably agreed upon by the Landlord and the Tenant (e.g., in one (1) of the construction trailers to be located on the Site during construction of the Project). The Landlord and the Tenant acknowledge and agree that any third-party, out-of-pocket costs actually incurred by the Tenant with respect to the engagement of any Third-Party Project Manager (“Third-Party Project Manager Costs”) not to exceed [*****] in the aggregate, shall be reimbursed by Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of written request therefor, accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation, given no more than once per month. All Third-Party Project Manager Costs reimbursed by Landlord to the Tenant as aforesaid shall be considered Development Costs under this Agreement.
| 7. | Landlord's Variations to the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works |
| 7.1. | Change Orders. Landlord may, from time to time, authorize changes in the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works, issue additional instructions, require additional work, or direct the omission of Shell Building Works or Stage Works previously ordered, make reasonable field substitutions (i.e., by substituting materials of reasonably equal or better quality, cost, and performance specifications) for materials specified in the Base Specification - Final and associated job specifications, or require changes in the Shell Building Works or Stage Works as necessary to comply with any applicable Statutory Requirements and/or CDM Regulations (any of the aforementioned, a “Change Order”); provided, however, that, except for changes in the Shell Building Works or Stage Works that are required to comply with any applicable Statutory Requirements and/or CDM Regulations, Landlord shall not undertake any of the foregoing actions without the approval of Tenant if such actions would: (i) materially affect the functionality of any Phase (including, without limitation: size, layout, and location; power availability, density, and distribution; and cooling and humidity specifications and conditions) or the operational efficiency (e.g., PUE) of the Building, as constituted from time to time; (ii) alter or modify any of the Rackspace Design Goals incorporated into the Design Documents; (iii) increase the overall Project Budget, or, without limiting the foregoing, have resulting costs of greater than [*****]; or (iv) extend the Construction Programme so that: (a) the Contract Time for Stage 1 is estimated to extend beyond the Target Commencement Date (A) (as the same may have been previously extended under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement); or (b) the Commencement Date (D) is estimated to occur after the Target Commencement Date (D) (as the same may have been previously extended under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) for Stage 2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall promptly notify Tenant in writing of any changes in the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works: (1) required to comply with applicable Statutory Requirements and/or CDM Regulations that otherwise qualify under any of items (i) - (iv) above; or (2) that have resulting costs of greater than [*****], and, in connection with the circumstances described in items (1) or (2), shall consult with, and reasonably consider any comments received from, Tenant with respect thereto, and, if and as applicable, shall use commercially-reasonable efforts to minimize any extension of the Construction Programme or increase in the Project Budget resulting therefrom. |
| 7.2. | If Landlord shall desire a Change Order that requires Tenant's approval under Clause 7.1 above, then Landlord shall request such change by giving Tenant a written change order request (“Change Order Request”), including a proposal (a “Change Order Proposal”) setting forth in reasonable detail, with a suitable breakdown by trades and work classifications, the scope of the change in the Shell Building Works and/or Stage Works, the estimated additive or deductive monetary amount of such change, and the estimated additive or deductive time duration of such change resulting therefrom. Tenant shall have five (5) Business Days to review a Change Order Request, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or conditioned. If Tenant approves a Change Order Request in writing or does not respond to a Change Order Request within such five (5) Business Day period, then (i) such Change Order Request shall constitute an “Approved Change Order,” and (ii) except as provided below, the Base Specification - Final, the Project Budget, and, if applicable, Construction Programme shall be revised and adjusted in accordance therewith. Any dispute as |
to whether the Tenant is withholding approval pursuant to and in accordance with this Clause 7.2 shall be agreed between the Landlord and the Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable after a written request so to do by one party to the other or in the event they cannot so agree shall be determined in accordance with Clause 24.
| 7.3. | If (i) Landlord encounters any unforeseen site conditions which necessitate a change in the Shell Building Works and/or Stage Works or (ii) due to Force Majeure, it becomes necessary for Landlord to enter into a change order with Contractor extending general conditions or otherwise accounting for costs associated with the applicable unavoidable delay or (iii) changes are required to comply with applicable Statutory Requirements and/or CDM Regulations enacted after the full execution and delivery of the Certificate Regarding Construction Drawings, Project Budget and Construction Programme (in any case, an “Unforeseen Condition Change Order”), then Landlord shall, if reasonably practicable under the circumstances, consult with Tenant prior to issuing such Unforeseen Condition Change Order and shall use commercially-reasonable efforts to minimize any increase in the Project Budget or extension of the Construction Programme resulting therefrom, but the same shall nevertheless result in a corresponding increase in the Project Budget and constitute Development Costs hereunder, and the final decision with respect to the issuance of such Unforeseen Condition Change Order(s) shall be made by Landlord in its sole, good faith judgment (and not subject to Tenant's approval). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not issue any Unforeseen Condition Change Order without the prior written approval of Tenant (which such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) if such Unforeseen Condition Change Order would: (a) materially affect the functionality of any Phase (including, without limitation: size, layout, and location; power availability, density, and distribution; and cooling and humidity specifications and conditions) or the operational efficiency (e.g., PUE) of the affected Phase(s), as constituted from time to time; (b) alter or modify any of the Rackspace Design Goals incorporated into the Design Documents; (c) increase the overall Project Budget by more than [*****]; or (d) extend the Construction Programme so that: (I) the Contract Time for Stage 1 is estimated to extend beyond the Target Commencement Date (A) (as the same may have been previously extended under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement); or (II) the Commencement Date (D) is estimated to occur after the Target Commencement Date (D) (as the same may have been previously extended under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) for Stage 2. Tenant shall have five (5) Business Days to review an Unforeseen Condition Change Order with respect to which Tenant has approval rights under items (a) - (d), inclusive, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If Tenant approves an Unforeseen Condition Change Order in writing or does not respond to an Unforeseen Condition Change Order request within such five (5) Business Day period, then (y) such an Unforeseen Condition Change Order shall constitute an “Approved Change Order,” and (z) except as provided below, the Project Budget, and, if applicable, Construction Programme shall be revised and adjusted in accordance therewith. Any dispute as to whether the Tenant is withholding approval pursuant to and in accordance with this Clause 7.3 shall be agreed between the Landlord and the Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable after a written request so to do by one party to the other or in the event they cannot so agree shall be determined in accordance with Clause 24. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Clause 7.3 shall be implied or interpreted as placing the risk of unforeseen conditions on Landlord. Rather, Tenant's objection right, as described above in this Clause 7.3, is included in this provision to provide Tenant a right to approve the manner in which the Landlord proposes to address the matter(s) described in items (i), (ii), and/or (iii) of this Clause 7.3, as reflected in the relevant Unforeseen Condition Change Order, considering any proposed increase in the Project Budget and/or proposed extension of the Construction Programme, and to provide Tenant an opportunity to prescribe one (1) or more reasonable alternatives to Landlord's Unforeseen Condition Change Order. If the Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on any Landlord's Unforeseen Condition Change Order under this Clause 7.3, then such circumstance shall be deemed a dispute and determined in accordance with Clause 24, below. |
| 7.4. | Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Project Budget may be increased only as follows: (i) any Change Orders (subject to the terms and conditions of Clauses 7.1 and 7.2); (ii) changes (including, without limitation, in the Construction Programme) resulting from or in connection with any Tenant's Delay; and (iii) any Unforeseen Condition Change Orders (subject to the terms and conditions of |
Clause 7.3). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if Tenant's approval is required for any Change Order and/or any Unforeseen Change Order as set forth in this Agreement, and Landlord moves forward with any such Change Order and/or Unforeseen Change Order without submitting a request to Tenant for approval thereof as provided for herein, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies of Tenant set forth in this Agreement and/or available at law or in equity, Landlord shall be responsible and liable, without reimbursement from Tenant and without any such costs or expenses being included as a Development Cost, to pay all costs and expenses associated with such Change Order and/or Unforeseen Change Order, including, without limitation, any and all costs and expenses to correct and/or remove any work associated with any such Change Order and/or Unforeseen Change Order.
| 8. | Tenant's Requested Modifications |
| 8.1. | Tenant's Notification of Modifications |
The Tenant shall have the right to request variations, additions, deletions, and/or substitutions to the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works (in each case a “Tenant's Requested Modification”), by application in writing to the Landlord which shall be subject to the Landlord's approval, provided that Landlord may withhold its approval regarding any Tenant's Requested Modification only where any such Tenant's Requested Modification contains facilities, materials, or work which, if implemented, would:
| (a) | adversely affect the structural integrity of the Building in a material manner; |
| (b) | materially and adversely affect the ability of Landlord to lease the affected Premises to third parties, for the same or substantially similar use as the Permitted Use (as defined in each Lease), upon the expiration or earlier termination of the term of the relevant Lease, because any such Tenant's Requested Modification is inconsistent with the Permitted Use; or |
| (c) | specify the use of any Prohibited Materials or violate any laws or the requirements of any Approvals or be such that any Approval or any insurance effected or to be effected by the Landlord pursuant to Clause 20 is reasonably likely to be prejudiced or unobtainable or is adversely affected (otherwise than to an immaterial extent). |
Any dispute as to whether a Tenant's Requested Modification is prohibited by this Clause 8.1 or whether the Landlord is reasonably withholding consent pursuant to this Clause 8.1 shall be agreed between the Landlord and the Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable after a written request so to do by one party to the other or in the event they cannot so agree shall be determined in accordance with Clause 24.
| 8.2. | Approval of Modifications |
The Tenant shall furnish with any such application (a “TRM Application”) the reasons for it and sufficient information to enable the Landlord to determine the extent and scope of the Tenant's Requested Modifications, the cost of the same, any proposed changes to lettable area and any anticipated impact on the Construction Programme. The Landlord shall not be obliged, where it has given initial consideration to a TRM Application but has found that any such reasons and/or information as referred to above have not been provided or the Landlord reasonably requires other information, to give further consideration to the TRM Application until the Tenant has (following written request from the Landlord identifying the missing further information that is required which shall be provided within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the application by the Landlord) provided that further information which the Landlord so reasonably requires.
| 8.3. | Authorisation Requests and Relevant Estimates |
| (a) | As soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of the information specified in Clause 8.2 and, subject as set out in Clause 8.1, if the Landlord approves a TRM Application (so far as applicable), the Landlord shall work closely with the Tenant's Representative and shall furnish to the Tenant in duplicate a memorandum which sets out details of the Tenant's Requested Modification in question, the duplicate of which will include an acceptance section for completion by the Tenant if it wishes to proceed with such Tenant's Requested Modification (the “TRM Authorisation Request”) and to which is annexed a statement setting out: |
| i. | the Approvals and the third party consents required in respect of the Tenant's Requested Modification (the “Modification Consents”); |
| ii. | an estimate of any Tenant's Delay which is likely to result by reason of such Tenant's Requested Modification and which shall include where applicable any estimated period of delay in respect of seeking and obtaining the Modification Consents (“Estimate of Tenant's Delay”); and |
| iii. | the Landlord's good faith estimate of any Development Costs attributable to such Tenant's Requested Modifications (the “TRM Costs Estimate”). |
Provided that the Estimate of Tenant's Delay and the TRM Costs Estimate (the “Relevant Estimates”) shall not be binding on the Landlord or the Tenant and no warranty as to the accuracy of such statements is given or shall be implied. In connection with the foregoing, Landlord agrees to cooperate reasonably and in good faith with Tenant to: (I) implement Tenant's Requested Modifications so as to minimize or eliminate (A) any Tenant's Delay and/or (B) any increase to the Project Budget, resulting from any such Tenant's Requested Modifications; and (II) mutually agree on a schedule for any Tenant's Requested Modifications, which, upon approval by Landlord and Tenant, shall be incorporated into the Construction Programme.
| (b) | Prior to receiving the Tenant's countersigned TRM Authorisation Request and Relevant Estimates, unless otherwise directed by Tenant in writing as part of the applicable TRM Application, the Landlord shall continue to progress or procure the progress of the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works as if no application for a Tenant's Requested Modification had been received. The Tenant agrees, for the avoidance of doubt, that where the Landlord continues with the execution of any aspects of the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works (as appropriate) in accordance with this Agreement prior to the incorporation of a Tenant's Requested Modification, then any costs which are wasted as a result shall nonetheless be included as part of the Development Costs, as and to the extent such costs otherwise qualify as Development Costs under the applicable terms and provisions of this Agreement. |
| 8.4. | Acceptance by the Tenant |
| (a) | If, having received the TRM Authorisation Request and the Relevant Estimates provided by the Landlord pursuant to Clause 8.3(a), the Tenant wishes to have the Tenant's Requested Modification made it shall within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such TRM Authorisation Request and Relevant Estimates countersign (by way of acknowledgement) and return the duly countersigned duplicate (without amendment or qualification) of the TRM Authorisation Request to the Landlord. |
| (b) | The countersigning and returning of the duplicate TRM Authorisation Request unamended and unqualified by the Tenant authorises the Landlord to proceed with the Tenant's Requested Modification and confirms that any actual Tenant's Delay and Development Costs properly referable to the Tenant's Requested Modification, whether or not in excess of those set out in the Relevant Estimates, shall constitute Development Costs and Tenant's Delay for all relevant purposes under this Agreement, independent of the Relevant Estimates but subject to all relevant terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the final grammatical paragraph of Clause 8.3(a) above and Clauses 8.5 and 8.7 below. |
| 8.5. | Preparation of Plans |
If the Tenant has countersigned and returned a TRM Authorisation Request unamended and unqualified to the Landlord in accordance with Clause 8.4(a) then:
| (a) | The Landlord shall (in the case of any Tenant's Requested Modification to the Shell Building Works), prepare or procure as soon as reasonably practicable the preparation of scaled and dimensioned architectural and engineering working drawings and specifications showing in detail and in scope the Tenant's Requested Modification which drawings and specifications are in this Agreement together called “Modification Plans”. The Modification Plans shall be submitted promptly to the Tenant for approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and if within five (5) Business Days of such request the Tenant shall not have in writing approved or reasonably objected to such request giving its reasons then such approval shall be deemed to have been given by the Tenant) provided that if it is apparent that a Modification Consent is required in respect of any Tenant's Requested Modification to the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works the Landlord shall first prepare or procure the preparation of, as soon as reasonably practicable, the plans which are necessary in order to apply for |
such Modification Consent and only prepare or procure the preparation of full Modification Plans either as soon as reasonably practicable following such Modification Consent being obtained or, if earlier, when the parties agree (acting reasonably) that it is appropriate to do so.
| (b) | Any facilities or materials supplied by and any work performed or procured by the Landlord by reason of Tenant's Requested Modification which are described in the Modification Plans are called “Modifications” in this Agreement and shall (subject to such Modification Plans having been approved (or deemed approved) by the Tenant pursuant to Clause 8.5(a) so far as applicable) be deemed to be part of the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works (as appropriate). |
| (c) | The Landlord shall use reasonable endeavours to obtain, as soon as reasonably practicable, the Modification Consents for Tenant's Requested Modifications to the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works (as appropriate) and shall notify the Tenant whether the same have been granted or otherwise forthwith on receiving notification of the same. |
| (d) | If, despite its reasonable endeavours, Landlord is unable to obtain the Modification Consents for any Tenant's Requested Modifications, Tenant will consider alterations or modifications to such Tenant's Requested Modifications that will enable Landlord to obtain the Modification Consents. If Tenant does not elect to make any alterations or modifications to Tenant's Requested Modifications in order to secure the relevant Modification Consents, or the Modification Consents cannot be secured, regardless of any alterations or modifications to Tenant's Requested Modifications, the Tenant's request for any such Tenant's Requested Modification shall be deemed to be withdrawn and the provisions of Clause 8.8 shall apply. |
| (e) | Subject to Landlord's delivery of copies of the Modification Consents to Tenant (which the Landlord shall procure and provide for the Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable), the Tenant shall notify the Landlord within five (5) Business Days of their receipt by the Tenant whether the Modification Consents are satisfactory to it and if they are the provisions of Clause 8.7 shall apply and if they are not or if the Tenant shall fail to give such notice within such period the Tenant's request for the Tenant's Requested Modification shall be deemed to be withdrawn and the provisions of Clause 8.8 shall apply. |
| (f) | Actual delay to the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works resulting from the need for, and the obtaining of, Modification Consents in accordance with this Clause 8 shall be a Tenant's Delay for the purposes of this Agreement, as and to the extent such delay otherwise qualifies as Tenant's Delay under the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement. |
| 8.6. | Calculation of actual Development Costs referable to Tenant's Requested Modifications |
The Landlord shall calculate as soon as reasonably practicable the amount of the actual Development Costs properly referable to the Modifications utilising (inter alia) initially for estimation purposes the pricing information provided by the Contractor and eventually utilising (inter alia) the sums finally properly payable to the Contractor in relation to the relevant Tenant's Requested Modifications, all pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement regarding the qualification for, and computation of, Development Costs.
| 8.7. | Execution of the Modifications |
Subject to:
| (a) | the Tenant countersigning and returning an unamended and unqualified TRM Authorisation Request in accordance with Clause 8.4(a); |
| (b) | preparation of the relevant Modification Plans (and the approval thereof by Tenant); and |
| (c) | obtaining all necessary Modification Consents (and the approval thereof by the Tenant); |
the Landlord shall procure the carrying out of the relevant Tenant's Requested Modifications as part of the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works (as applicable) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
| 8.8. | Tenant's Withdrawal of a Tenant's Requested Modification |
If:
| (a) | the Tenant withdraws a request for the Tenant's Requested Modification prior to the Landlord commencing the relevant Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works (as applicable), which Tenant |
shall be entitled to do at any time by way of notice to the Landlord (any withdrawal after commencement of the relevant Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works (as applicable) being treated as a request for a Tenant's Requested Modification pursuant to Clause 8.1), or Tenant is deemed to withdraw a request for any Tenant's Requested Modification in accordance with the provisions of Clause 8.5(d) or 8.5(e); or
| (b) | the Tenant fails to countersign and return a TRM Authorisation Request unamended and unqualified to the Landlord in accordance with Clause 8.4(a); |
then the Landlord shall have no further obligation to implement the Tenant's Requested Modification in question and all proper costs and expenses properly incurred by the Landlord and the Landlord's Professional Team pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such withdrawn Tenant's Requested Modification (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such costs which will need to be properly incurred in reverting to designing and constructing the relevant parts of the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works (as appropriate) as designed prior to the variations proposed by the Tenant's Requested Modification) shall constitute Development Costs and any actual delays resulting from the Landlord complying with its obligations pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such withdrawn Tenant's Requested Modification shall constitute a Tenant's Delay for the purposes of this Agreement, as and to the extent: (i) such costs and expenses otherwise qualify as Development Costs under the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (ii) such delay(s) otherwise qualify(ies) as Tenant's Delay under the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement.
| 9. | Intellectual Property |
| 9.1. | Landlord Intellectual Property |

Tenant hereby |
grants Landlord a perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free license and right to use Tenant's Know-How for the design, development, construction, operation, maintenance, and repair of the Building, but for no other purpose without the express written consent of Tenant, such consent to be granted or withheld in Tenant's sole and absolute discretion.
| (b) | For avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant and Landlord acknowledge that: (i) the Rackspace Design Goals do not represent Tenant's Know-How, Rackspace Program-Level Design Concepts, nor Tenant's Intellectual Property; and (ii) notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Landlord's use of any particular individual element of Tenant's Know-How and/or the Rackspace Program-Level Design Concepts shall not be restricted under the terms of this Agreement to the extent, in either case, that such element: (A) is, at the time of such consideration, generally available for use by the public other than through breach of this Agreement or any other duty of confidentiality owed to the Tenant and/or Tenant's Affiliates; (B) is known to, and usable by, Landlord (or its Affiliates), without restriction, prior to disclosure of such items to Landlord by or on behalf of Tenant and/or Tenant's Affiliates; (C) has been provided to Landlord (or its Affiliates) by a person or entity other than Tenant, Tenant's Affiliates, and/or their respective agents, contractors, consultants, employees, representatives, and/or service providers (provided that such information, to Landlord's knowledge, was disclosed by a person or entity not bound by confidentiality, nondisclosure, or non-use obligations or restrictions with respect thereto); or (D) was developed by Landlord (or its Affiliates) without reference to any materials provided under this Agreement or otherwise by or on behalf of Tenant and/or Tenant's Affiliates, as shown by the written business records of Landlord (or its Affiliates). |
| 9.3. | To the extent any new Intellectual Property Rights are jointly created or developed by Landlord and Tenant through the Project, Landlord and Tenant will jointly own such new Intellectual Property Rights (“Joint Intellectual Property Rights”), with neither party having a right of accounting to the other party and with each party having the right to freely use and license such new Intellectual Property Rights without the consent of the other party. |
| 10. | Confidentiality |
| 10.1. | The term “Confidential Information” shall mean: (a) the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Leases; and (b) all information, including, without limitation, all drawings, plans, specifications, know-how, costs, trade contract documents, and calculations, disclosed, supplied, or made available by one party and/or its Affiliates, agents, employees, representatives, contractors, consultants, service providers, or other members of its professional team (“Discloser”), to the other party or its Affiliates (“Recipient”) which relates to: this Agreement; the design, development, construction, maintenance, repair, and operation of the Building; or the Leases, whether disclosed before, on, or after the date of this Agreement, and whether in oral, paper, magnetic, electronic, photographic, or any other form.

| 11. | Certificates of Practical Completion |
| 11.1. | Landlord to give Tenant notice of inspection |
In respect of the Shell Building Works and the Stage Works, the Landlord shall, in each instance, procure that the Contract Administrator gives to the Tenant not less than fifteen (15) Business Days' advance written notice of the date on which Contract Administrator will inspect the Shell Building Works or the Stage Works with a view to the issue of the Shell Building Works Certificate of Practical Completion or the Stage Works Certificate of Practical Completion (as relevant).
| 11.2. | Further inspections |
If, following the inspection, the Shell Building Works Certificate of Practical Completion or the Stage Works Certificate of Practical Completion (as relevant) is not issued, the Landlord shall ensure that the Shell Building Works Certificate of Practical Completion or the Stage Works Certificate of Practical Completion (as relevant) is not subsequently issued unless not less than three (3) Business Days' advance written notice is given to the Tenant of the date of re-inspection, and this procedure shall be repeated as often as necessary until the Shell Building Works Certificate of Practical Completion or the Stage Works Certificate of Practical Completion (as relevant) is issued.
| 11.3. | Joint inspection |
The Tenant and the Tenant's Representatives shall be entitled to accompany the Architect and/or the Contract Administrator, as applicable, on every inspection of the Shell Building Works or the Stage Works (as relevant) prior to the issue of the Shell Building Works Certificate of Practical Completion or the Stage Works Certificate of Practical Completion (as relevant). In connection with such inspections, the Contract Administrator, Landlord, and Tenant will prepare a list of the snagging items to be included in the Shell Building Works Certificate of Practical Completion. Furthermore, Landlord, Tenant, and the Contract Administrator will jointly inspect the Shell Building Works and/or the Stage Works (as relevant) on a date mutually agreed upon by such parties that is approximately twelve (12) months after the issuance of the Shell Building Works Certificate of Practical Completion or the Stage Works Certificate of Practical Completion (as relevant) (and in any event prior to the expiration of any applicable warranty period(s) provided for in the Building Contract), in order to inspect the Shell Building Works or the Stage Works (as relevant), the completion thereof (including any snagging items and any corrective work performed prior to such inspection), and any defects with respect thereto. The terms and provisions of this Clause 11.3 shall survive the expiration of this Agreement.
| 11.4. | Certificates of Practical Completion |
The Landlord shall procure that a copy of the Shell Building Works Certificate of Practical Completion and/or the Stage Works Certificate of Practical Completion (as relevant) is delivered to the Tenant within two (2) Business Days of its issue.
| 11.5. | Snagging Items |
Landlord shall cause correction and completion of all snagging items and shall provide periodic progress updates regarding the completion of such snagging items to Tenant. Failure to include any snagging item in the Shell Building Works Certificate of Practical Completion will not alter the responsibility of Landlord for completion of all Shell Building Works and Stage Works. If any snagging item must be completed after commencement by Tenant of Tenant's installations (as provided for in each Lease), Landlord shall coordinate with Tenant and Tenant's contractor to ensure timely completion of the snagging items and mitigate any unreasonable disruption to Tenant's installations and Tenant's construction schedule. The terms and provisions of this Clause 11.5 shall survive the expiration of this Agreement.

| 12. | Capital Allowances |
The Landlord reserves the right to claim for itself the benefit of any capital allowances or grants which may be available in respect of any of the Development Costs. The Tenant shall render such reasonable assistance as the Landlord may reasonably require in this regard, provided that, for avoidance of doubt, the foregoing right of Landlord shall in no event apply to Tenant's Personal Property (as that term is defined in Schedule 9, below) or Tenant's improvements or alterations to the Premises. Without limiting the foregoing, the Tenant reserves the right to claim for itself the benefit of any capital allowances or grants which may be available in respect of Tenant's Personal Property and/or Tenant's Alterations (as defined in each Lease). The Landlord shall render such reasonable assistance as the Tenant may reasonably require in this regard.

for the respective Terms (as defined in each Lease). Clauses 13 to 16 shall apply to the completion of each of the Leases, mutatis mutandis.
| (b) | Notwithstanding that the Site has not been selected and acquired by Landlord or that the Building has not been designed as of the effective date of this Agreement, Landlord and Tenant each acknowledges and agrees that: (i) it is experienced in transactions of this nature; and (ii) it waives any and all claims of, or related to: (A) an insufficient description of: (1) the Site, the Building, or the Premises, including, without limitation, any and all claims under any applicable statute of frauds; (2) the exact amount of Critical Load Power to be available to each Premises; or (3) the Quarterly Recurring Charges or any other Rent payable by Tenant hereunder and under the Leases; or (B) a failure by Landlord and Tenant to agree in this Agreement on any other material term regarding the form of lease to be used by the parties for Tenant's lease of the Phases, as shall hereafter be set forth in each Lease. The parties agree that if modifications of this Agreement or any Lease (or the preparation of additional documents) are necessary in order to cause the terms of this Agreement (and/or any Lease) to have their intended, enforceable and valid effect, the parties will act reasonably and in good faith to cause the additional and/or further documentation and/or agreements to become effective by and between them if, as, and when reasonably necessary. |
| 13.2. | Form of Lease |
| (a) | Engrossments of each Lease and each counterpart will be prepared by the Landlord's Solicitors. |
| (b) | The Landlord and/or the Tenant may make such additions or modifications to the form or the plan to be annexed to each Lease as may reasonably be required to describe the applicable Premises or the Building as eventually constructed, as set forth in the relevant Lease, which additions or modifications shall be reasonably approved by the other party. The applicable Commencement Date shall be inserted in the engrossments of the relevant Lease and counterpart Lease on completion for the corresponding Phase. |
| 13.3. | Length of Lease Terms and Quarterly Recurring Charges |
The following provisions shall apply (inter alia) to the computation and the commencement date for payment of the rents payable under, and the calculation of the commencement and length of the term of, each Lease:
| (a) | The Commencement Date for each Lease of a Phase shall be the date on which Landlord (i) satisfies the relevant Commencement Date Conditions, including the relevant Stage Works Practical Completion, and (ii) delivers possession of such Phase to Tenant; and the term of the Lease for each Phase shall be for a period of twenty (20) years (two hundred forty (240) full calendar months, plus any Partial Month, as defined in the Leases) commencing upon the Commencement Date for such Phase's Lease. |
| (b) | The Quarterly Recurring Charges for each Phase shall initially be a sum equal to the Estimated Quarterly Recurring Charges for such Phase, such amount being deemed to be exclusive of VAT (if any) thereon, and such amount to be adjusted as set forth in Clause 13.4 below and the relevant Lease. |
| (c) | The Quarterly Recurring Charges for each Phase shall commence to be payable on the Commencement Date for the Lease of such Phase. |
| 13.4. | Quarterly Recurring Charges Calculation |
| (a) | The Landlord shall submit to the Tenant, within five (5) Business Days of the relevant Stage Works Practical Completion, the Landlord's draft final account for the Total Development Costs to date for such Stage together with such supporting documents and information as the Landlord shall consider necessary (acting reasonably), together with its calculation of the Estimated Quarterly Recurring Charges for each Phase of such Stage, all subject to the terms and provisions set forth in Schedule 7 attached hereto. Landlord shall provide such additional supporting documentation and information regarding the calculation of the Total Development Costs as Tenant may reasonably request. |
| (b) | On the expiry of eleven (11) months from each Phase's respective Commencement Date, the Landlord shall issue to the Tenant a final statement of account setting out its final calculation of the Total Development Costs for the relevant Stage, together with such further supporting documents and information as may be reasonably required by the Tenant in order for it to review and consider such final calculation of the same by the Landlord. As soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of the |
same, the Tenant and the Landlord shall work together reasonably and in good faith to agree on such final account and the consequent Actual Quarterly Recurring Charges for each such Stage, and each Phase of such Stage, and, subject to the terms and provisions of Clause 13.4(c), the Actual Quarterly Recurring Charges for each such Stage, and each Phase of such Stage, shall be deemed to be the Quarterly Recurring Charges for each such Stage, and each Phase of such Stage, for the purposes of the relevant Leases, and the parties shall document the same by signing a memorandum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Estimated Quarterly Recurring Charges and the Actual Quarterly Recurring Charges for each of Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 5 shall be subject to further adjustment as set forth in the definitions of “First Year Quarterly Recurring Charges” and “Reconciled First Year Quarterly Recurring Charges” in the relevant Leases. Any dispute as to such final account and the amount of the Total Development Costs for a Stage and/or any Phase within a Stage shall be determined in accordance with Clause 24.
| (c) | If, upon agreement or determination of the final statement of account of the Total Development Costs for a Stage and each Phase of a Stage under Clause 13.4(b): |
| (i) | the Estimated Quarterly Recurring Charges for any Phase exceeds the Actual Quarterly Recurring Charges for such Phase, the Landlord shall credit against the Quarterly Recurring Charges for such Phase due pursuant to the Lease for the immediately following quarter (or longer, if necessary) any amount in excess of the Actual Quarterly Recurring Charges for such Phase which may have been paid by the Tenant; or |
| (ii) | the Estimated Quarterly Recurring Charges for any Phase is less than the Actual Quarterly Recurring Charges for such Phase, then the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord a sum equal to such difference within forty-five (45) days after the final statement of account being so agreed or determined. |
| 13.5. | Description of the Land, the Building, and the Premises |
The following provisions shall apply (inter alia) to the description of the Land, the Building, and each Phase under each Lease:
| (a) | The Land shall be the Site acquired by the Landlord under Schedule 8 and shall be described using the same description included in Landlord's application for the registration of the Landlord's freehold interest in and to the Site. |
| (b) | The Building, including the Electricity Consumption Threshold, the capacity of the Building generators, the description of the Infrastructure, and the rooftop area subject to Tenant's rooftop rights, as well as the parking area(s) serving the Building, shall be described as constructed. |

| (e) | all matters contained in or referred to in the Leases; |
and the Landlord warrants that it shall provide the Tenant with notice of all such matters in accordance with Schedule 8.
| 16.2 | Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms and provisions set forth in subclauses (a) - (e) above, Landlord covenants and agrees that Landlord shall take no action, and shall not authorize any action to be taken, that would unreasonably impair or limit Tenant's ability to access, use, and/or occupy the Building and/or the Premises in order to conduct the Permitted Use. In connection therewith, Landlord covenants and agrees that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement and/or the Leases and/or to the extent approved by Tenant: (i) other than restrictions, wayleaves, and/or other encumbrances required by applicable law and/or as otherwise permitted or required under this Clause 16, any restriction(s), wayleave(s), or other encumbrance(s) granted by Landlord or otherwise becoming effective under, by, or through Landlord with respect to the Site after the effective date of this Agreement (each, a “Future Restriction”) shall expressly exclude application, by specific reference, to the Premises (as the same may be constituted from time to time); (ii) any Future Restriction granted by Landlord in breach of the foregoing covenant, that applies to the Premises or Tenant's use thereof shall, as between Tenant and the Landlord, be null and void and of no force or effect; and (iii) except as and to the extent required by applicable law and/or as otherwise permitted or required under this Clause 16, the Landlord shall not enter into any license, lease, or other occupancy document of any kind, or any division, subdivision, or other partition of any kind, with respect to the Site or any portion thereof.

| (ii) | duly notify HM Revenue and Customs of the option to tax as set forth in item (i) above; and |
| (iii) | supply the Tenant with a copy of the option to tax and evidence of the receipt by HM Revenue and Customs of the option to tax as aforesaid. |
| (c) | The Landlord will not revoke the option to tax in relation to the Premises (either before or after completion) or knowingly do, cause to be done, or omit to do anything which could lead to the option to tax being revoked by HM Revenue and Customs. |
| (d) | The Tenant warrants and undertakes that it will be using the Premises wholly, or substantially wholly, for the making of supplies that are taxable supplies for VAT purposes (or supplies that would be taxable supplies if they were treated as being made in the United Kingdom), and will not render the option to tax referred to in Clause 17(b) ineffective. |

Interest shall be payable by each of Landlord and Tenant on any money which is not paid by it under this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days of the due date for its payment. Such interest shall accrue and be
