AMENDMENT NO. 1
TO REQUEST FOR LEASE PROPOSAL NO. 36C10F23R0056
April 10, 2023
Veterans Administration
Beaumont, TX OPC

The following items of the subject Request for Lease Proposal (RLP) 36C10F23R0056 have been amended as follows and hereby enacted within RLP Form R100

RLP Paragraph 1.08 D, Lease Description , is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

D. The Lease contemplated by this RLP is a fully serviced Lease. Rent shall be based upon a proposed rental rate per Rentable Square Foot (RSF), limited by the offered rate and the maximum ABOA SF solicited under this RLP. Although certain Tenant Improvement (TI) requirements information is provided with this RLP and will be incorporated into the Lease, the TIs to be delivered by the Lessor will be based on the final design to be developed after award of the Lease, which reflects the Agency s full requirements. The Lessor shall design and build the TIs and will be compensated for TI costs, together with design and project management fees to be set under the Lease. Although the TI requirements will not be developed fully until after award, Offerors shall provide the allowance stated in the Tenant Improvement Allowance paragraph of the Lease.

Unless the Government prepares Design Intent Drawings (DIDs), after award the Lessor must prepare DIDs for the leased Space conforming to the lease requirements and other Government-supplied information related to the client agency s interior build-out requirements. The Government will have the opportunity to review the Lessor's DIDs to determine that the Lessor's design meets the requirements of the Lease. Only after the Government approves the DIDs and a final price for TIs is negotiated will the Lessor be released to proceed with buildout. The Lease also provides that the Government may modify the TI requirements, subject to the Lessor's right to receive compensation for such changes. VERSION 2: IF USING TI TURNKEY PRICING WITH DIDS PREPARED BY LESSOR AFTER AWARD.
NOTE: IF SEEKING OFFERS THAT ARE FULLY-SERVICED, DELETE EXCLUDING UTILITIES, WHICH SHALL BE PAID DIRECTLY BY VA UNDER FIRST SENTENCE, AS MACRO WILL NOT CHANGE THIS TEXT.

RLP Paragraphs 3.03 B1 and B3, Pricing Terms , are hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

A fully serviced Lease rate per ABOA and RSF, clearly itemizing the total Building shell rental, TI rate, operating costs, and parking (itemizing all costs of parking above base local code requirements or otherwise already included in shell rent).

The annual cost per ABOA and rentable square foot (RSF) for the cost of services and utilities. This equals line 27 of GSA Form 1217, Lessor s Annual Cost Statement, divided by the Building size (shown on the top of both GSA Form 1364, Proposal to Lease Space, and Form 1217) for ABOA and RSF, respectively.
3.03 B 1 - 3
VERSION 3: IF USING TI TURNKEY PRICING WITH DIDS PREPARED BY OFFERORS PRIOR TO AWARD.
