LEED CONSTRUCTION GUIDELINES

(updated 7.6.2015)

Tenant hereby acknowledges that the Premises are located in a building which is LEED certified. In order to maintain such certification, Tenant shall comply with the following requirements:

1. Water Efficiency: The Building plumbing fixtures installed by the Landlord reduce water usage and it is not expected that tenants will add any additional plumbing fixtures or modify the plumbing fixtures installed by the Landlord within their space. The following criteria apply if tenant adds or replaces any of the plumbing fixtures within their premises;

a. All water closets must have a maximum flow rate of 1.28 gallons per flush.

b. All urinals must be waterless.

c. All lavatory faucets must be metered or auto-controlled with a maximum flow rate of 0.1 gallons per cycle, based on a 12-second duration cycle.

d. All kitchen sink fixtures must have a maximum flow rate of 2.0 gallons per minute.

(WE (Water Efficiency) Prerequisite 1: Water Use Reduction – 20% Reduction and Credit 3: Water Use Reduction – By complying with the requirements above, any optional tenant improvements to plumbing fixtures installed by the Landlord will maintain the water usage reduction achieved by the Building per WEp1 and WEc3 of the LEED Reference Guide for Green Building Design and Construction, 2009 Edition.)

2. Lighting Performance; The following criteria apply to all tenant installed light fixtures within the leased premises;

a. The maximum lighting power density to be installed by the tenant within the tenant retail spaces shall not exceed 1.5 watts per square foot. This value shall include all of the lighting system components (lamps, ballasts, task lighting, etc.).

(EA (Energy and Atmosphere) Prerequisite 2: Minimum Energy Performance and Credit 1: Optimize Energy Performance – By complying with the requirements above, the tenant improvements shall contribute to the improvement in building performance rating as compared with the baseline building performance rating per EAc1, Option 1, of the LEED Reference Guide for Green Building Design and Construction, 2009 Edition)

3. Refrigerant Management; The Building heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) systems installed by the Landlord for all tenant spaces do not use chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) based refrigerants. Any tenant modifications, repair, or additions to the building HVAC&R systems shall not use CFC based refrigerants.

(EA Prerequisite 3: Fundamental Refrigerant Management per EAp3 of the LEED Reference Guide for Green Building Design and Construction, 2009 Edition)

4. Indoor Air Quality; The Building HVAC systems installed by the Landlord for all tenant spaces demonstrate compliance with the minimum requirements of Sections 4 through 7 of ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2007, Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality (with errata, but without addenda).Any tenant modifications or additions to the shell HVAC systems shall also demonstrate compliance with this standard.

(EQp1 of the LEED Reference Guide for Green Building Design and Construction, 2009 Edition.)

5. Environmental Tobacco Smoke Control; Tenant shall prohibit smoking within 25 feet of entries, outdoor air intakes, and operable windows. Landlord installed signage at all regularly used exterior tenant entries will be provided to comply with this requirement.

(EQp2 of the LEED Reference Guide for Green Building Design and Construction, 2009 Edition.)

STOREFRONT SECURITY SYSTEM

Written Criteria:

Storefront Design Control Zone

The Tenant Storefront Design Control Zone is the area of the store extending from the storefront lease line into the store a minimum of five feet (5’-0”) across the entire width of the store. Since the appearance of this zone is critical to the overall store appearance, design solutions, and materials are expected to be of the highest quality. The design zone will be closely reviewed by Landlord for design and use.

Security systems shall be fully concealed. Gate style or stanchion security systems are not permitted if visible from the mall. Security cameras, vision panels, or “bubbles” shall not be exposed to public view in the Design Control Zone.

Purpose of Criteria:

The Landlord’s Storefront and Design Control Zone criteria (first 5’ into the store) requires tenants to design their stores to a high level of quality and finish so that the visual and aesthetic impact on the customer enhances the shopping experience and differentiates the image of Simon as being the best place to shop.

While we recognize that store security is important, we feel that free-standing pedestal (or stanchion) systems produce a negative connotation, are confrontational, are detrimental to impulse sales (by creating a “threshold” affect) and generally detract from the shopping experience.

Accordingly, while we do allow concealed and “discreet” systems (such as Digital Door-Max®), pedestal systems are not allowed. To quote Sensormatic: “Pedestals can provide visible deterrence while concealed systems offer more discreet protection for upscale retail environments.”

Product Description:

Storefront EAS (Electronic Article Surveillance) security systems and devices come in a variety of types.

Sensormatic is probably most popular and can be found on the below URL (Sensormatic’s “discreet” and “concealed” systems are acceptable: ()

DISPLAY LIGHTING AT STOREFRONT SOFFIT

(Mounting to bottom of ceiling) (Mounting to back side of storefront soffit)
