The Government will evaluate proposals conforming to the RLP requirements in accordance with the Method of Award set forth below to select an Offeror for award. The Government will award the Lease to the selected Offeror, subject to the conditions below.

This Request for Lease Proposals (RLP) sets forth instructions and requirements for proposals for a Succeeding or Superseding Lease where the Government is currently in occupancy and possession of the leased Premises. Unless otherwise noted, the Government will accept the leased Premises in their current condition, with the exceptions outlined in the RLP documents. The Government will evaluate the proposal conforming to the RLP requirements in accordance with the Method of Award set forth below. The Government will award the Lease subject to the conditions below.

B. Included in the RLP documents is a lease template setting forth the lease term and other terms and conditions of the Lease contemplated by this RLP and a GSA Proposal to Lease Space (GSA Form 1364) on which Offeror shall submit its offered rent and other price data, together with required information and submissions. The Lease paragraph titled “Definitions and General Terms” shall apply to the terms of this RLP.

C. Do not attempt to complete the lease template. Upon selection for award, GSA will transcribe the successful Offeror’s final offered rent and other price data included on the GSA Form 1364 into the lease and transmit the completed Lease, including any appropriate attachments, to the successful Offeror for execution. Neither the RLP nor any other part of an Offeror’s proposal shall be part of the Lease except to the extent expressly incorporated therein. The Offeror should review the completed Lease for accuracy and consistency with his or her proposal, sign and date the first page, initial each subsequent page of the Lease, and return it to the Lease Contracting Officer (LCO).

D. The Offeror's executed Lease shall constitute a firm offer. No Lease shall be formed until the LCO executes the Lease and delivers a signed copy to the Offeror.

E. Offeror may not use Federal agency name(s) and/or acronym(s), e.g., General Services Administration, GSA, in the entity name that owns and/or leases the Space to GSA.

1.02 AMOUNT AND TYPE OF SPACE, LEASE TERM, AND OCCUPANCY DATE (OCT 2022)

A. The Government is seeking 18,525 of American National Standards Institute/Building Owners and Managers Association (ANSI/BOMA) for

Occupant Area (ABOA) square feet (SF) of Space within the existing location. See Section 2 of the Lease for applicable ANSI/BOMA standards

B. The Space shall be located in a modern quality Building of sound and substantial construction with a facade of stone, marble, brick, stainless steel, aluminum or other permanent materials in good condition and acceptable to the LCO. If not a new Building, the Space offered shall be in a Building that has undergone, or will complete by occupancy, modernization or adaptive reuse for the Space with modern conveniences.

C. The Government requires 57 surface/outside parking spaces, reserved for the exclusive use of the Government. These spaces must be secured and lit in accordance with the Security Requirements set forth in the Lease. Offeror shall include the cost of this parking as part of the rental consideration.

D. As part of the rental consideration, the Government may require use of part of the Building roof for the installation of antenna(s). If antenna space is required, specifications regarding the type of antenna(s) and mounting requirements are included in the agency requirements information provided with this RLP.

E. The Government may provide vending machines within the Government's leased area under the provisions of the Randolph-Sheppard Act

B. In addition to the documents identified above, this RLP package includes additional agency requirements containing sensitive information that is only available to Offerors upon request to the LCO or Alternate Government Contact as listed under Section 1 of this RLP.

1.07 AMENDMENTS TO THE RLP (JUN 2012)

This RLP may be amended by notice from the LCO. Amendments may modify the terms of this RLP, or the terms, conditions, and requirements of the Lease contemplated by the RLP.

1.08 LEASE DESCRIPTION (MAY 2025)

A. Offeror shall examine the Lease template included in the RLP documents to understand the Government's and the Lessor's respective rights and responsibilities under the contemplated Lease.

B. The Lease contemplated by this RLP includes:

1. The term of the Lease, and renewal option, if any.

2. Terms and Conditions of the Lease, including Definitions, Standards, and Formulas applicable to the Lease and this RLP.

3. Building Shell standards and requirements.

4. Information concerning the tenant agency's buildout requirements, to be supplemented after award.

5. Security Requirements.

6. A description of all services to be provided by the Lessor.

C. Should the Offeror be awarded the Lease, the terms of the Lease shall be binding upon the Lessor without regard to any statements contained in this RLP.

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

RLP NO. 3AK0288, PAGE 3 GSA TEMPLATE R100 (6/25)

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.

E. The security pricing process is described in a separate paragraph.

F. Upon completion and acceptance of the leased Space, the Space will be measured for establishing the actual annual rent, and the lease term shall commence. In instances involving an incumbent Lessor where the Government commences the lease term pending completion of TI and/or BSAC alterations, the Government shall withhold TI and/or BSAC rent pursuant to Section 1 of the Lease until such time as the TI and/or BSAC is completed and accepted by the Government. During the term of the Lease, rent will be adjusted for changes to the Lessor's operating costs and real estate taxes, pursuant to paragraphs set forth in the Lease.

G. Offerors are advised that doing business with the Government carries special responsibilities with respect to fire protection and life safety, and security, as well as other requirements not typically found in private commercial leases. These are set forth both in the lease template and in the GSA 3517B, General Clauses, and will be made part of the Lease.

1.09 RELATIONSHIP OF RLP BUILDING MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS AND LEASE OBLIGATIONS (OCT 2016)

The Lease establishes various requirements relating to the Building shell. Such requirements are not deemed TIs. There are certain Building requirements that are established as minimum requirements in this RLP. If the Lessor's Building does not meet the requirements at the time of award, the Lessor may still be awarded the Lease. However, as a condition of award, the Government will require Lessor to identify those Building improvements that will bring the Building into compliance with RLP requirements. Upon award of the Lease, completion of those Building improvements will become Lease obligations.

1.10 PRICING OF SECURITY REQUIREMENTS (OCT 2022)

A. The proposed Lease contains an attachment with the security requirements and obligations for the Building, which are based on the facility security level (FSL). The Federal Government determines the facility’s FSL rating, which ranges from FSL I to FSL IV. The FSL is based on client agency mix, required size of space, number of employees, use of the space, location, configuration of the site and lot, and public access into and around the facility.

B. The security requirements attached to this Lease includes a general list of countermeasures that may be installed in the leased Space as part of the Building Specific Amortized Capital (BSAC). The final list of security countermeasures will be determined during the design phase and identified in the design intent drawings and construction documents. After completing the construction documents, the Lessor shall submit a list of the itemized costs. Such costs shall be subject to negotiation. The Lessor shall design and build the BSAC and will be compensated for BSAC costs, together with design and project management fees to be set under the Lease.

C. There shall be no charge to the Government for any items that already exist in the offered Building or facility.

1.11 SECURITY LEVEL DETERMINATION FOR FACILITY HOUSING OTHER FEDERAL TENANTS (APR 2011)

If an Offeror is offering Space in a facility currently housing a Federal agency, the security requirements of the facility may be increased and the Offeror may be required to adhere to a higher security standard than other Offerors competing for the same space requirement. If two or more Federal space requirements are being competed at the same time, an Offeror submitting on both or more space requirements may be subject to a higher security standard if the Offeror is determined to be the successful Offeror on more than one space requirement. It is incumbent upon the Offeror to prepare the Offeror’s proposal accordingly.

1.12 AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES (OCT 2020)

With respect to all matters relating to this RLP, only the Government's LCO designated below shall have the authority to amend the RLP and award a Lease. The Government shall have the right to substitute its LCO by notice, without an express delegation by the prior LCO.

1.13 BROKER COMMISSION AND COMMISSION CREDIT (OCT 2020)

A. For the purposes of this RLP, CARPENTER ROBBINS COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE, INC. (the Broker) is the authorized contractor real estate broker representing GSA. The Government expects the Lessor to pay a commission to the Broker. By submitting an offer, the Offeror agrees that if the Offeror is paying a commission or fee in connection with this Lease to a listing agent, an offering agent, or broker, property manager, developer, or any other agent or representative, then the Offeror will pay a commission to the Broker to which the Broker would ordinarily be entitled consistent with local business practices, as evidenced through a brokerage agreement between the Offeror and the Broker.

The commission will be negotiated between the Offeror and the Broker and will be based on a Lease term not to exceed the Firm Term of the Lease contemplated by this RLP. Commissions will not be negotiated or collected on option periods or for Lease terms beyond the Firm Term of the Lease. As part of the offer, the Offeror shall disclose all commissions and/or fees to be paid by the Offeror including both the Offeror’s agent(s), broker(s), property manager, developer or any other agent or representative and the Broker. The Offeror shall enter the commission amounts for its representative and the amount to GSA’s Broker in blocks 31a and 31b respectively on GSA Form 1217, Lessors Annual Cost Statement. An executed commission agreement reflecting this agreement shall be submitted with the initial offer.

B. Offerors are advised that there is a potential for a dual agency situation to arise under this procurement, whereby the Broker’s Company may represent both GSA and another Offeror under this lease action. By submitting an offer, the Offeror acknowledges the potential for a dual agency situation. Should there be an actual dual agency, the Broker will notify all Offerors of the actual dual agency and request written acknowledgement statements from all Offerors.

C. For the benefit of the Government, the Broker has agreed to forego a percentage of any commission that it is entitled to receive in connection with the contemplated Lease. This amount shall be specifically set forth at time of lease award. The resulting total dollar value of the foregone commission (the Commission Credit) shall be applied in equal monthly amounts against rental payments due and owing under the Lease. The rental amount payable shall be reduced by the Commission Credit at the commencement of the Lease, over the minimum number of months that will not exceed the monthly shell rental, until the Commission Credit has been fully recaptured. The parties agree to execute a Lease Amendment setting forth the full nature, extent, terms, and conditions of commissions paid to the Broker and the Commission Credit to be applied against the Government’s rental payment obligations under the Lease. Commissions and/or credits shall be treated as confidential financial information and Offerors will refrain from public disclosure or using the information for any other purpose than that for which it was furnished without consent of the GSA LCO.

D. For purposes of price evaluation, the Commission Credit shall be treated as a deduction from the rent in accordance with the Method of Award.

The amount of any commission paid to the Broker shall not be considered separately as part of this price evaluation since the value of the commission is included in the rental consideration.

RLP NO. 3AK0288, PAGE 7 GSA TEMPLATE R100 (6/25)

1. All new Buildings being specifically constructed for the Government, provided they achieve an ENERGY STAR® label within 18 months after occupancy by the Government, and received the “Designed to Earn the Energy Star®” certification prior to construction;

2. All existing Buildings that have had an Energy Star® label but are unable to obtain a label in the most recent year (i.e., within 12 months prior to the due date for final proposal revisions) because of insufficient occupancy;

3. Newly built Buildings that have used Energy® Star’s Target Finder tool and either achieved a “Designed to Earn the Energy Star®” certification or received an unofficial score (in strict adherence to Target Finder’s usage instructions, including the use of required energy modeling) of 75 or higher prior to the due date for final proposal revisions and who are unable to obtain a label in the most recent year because of insufficient occupancy; or

4. An existing Building that is unable to obtain a label because of insufficient occupancy but that can produce an indication, through the use of energy modeling or past utility and occupancy data input into Energy Star’s® Portfolio Manager tool or Target Finder, that it can receive an unofficial score of 75 or higher using all other requirements of Target Finder or Portfolio Manager, except for actual data from the most recent year.

C. Subject to subparagraph D below, EISA allows a Federal agency to lease Space in a Building that does not have an ENERGY STAR® Label if:

1. No Space is offered in a Building with an ENERGY STAR® Label that meets RLP requirements, including locational needs;

2. The agency will remain in a Building it currently occupies;

3. The Lease will be in a Building of historical, architectural, or cultural significance listed or eligible to be listed on the National Register of

Historic Places; or

4. The Lease is for 10,000 RSF or less.

D. If one or more of the statutory exceptions applies, and the offered Space is not in a Building that has earned the ENERGY STAR® Label within one year prior to the due date for final proposal revisions, Offerors are required to include in their lease proposal an agreement to renovate the Building for all energy efficiency and conservation improvements that it has determined would be cost effective over the Firm Term of the Lease, if any, prior to acceptance of the Space (or not later than one year after the Lease Award Date of a succeeding or superseding lease). Such improvements may consist of, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) upgrades, including boilers, chillers, and Building Automation System (BAS)

/Monitoring/Control System (EMCS).

2. Lighting Improvements.

3. Building Envelope Modifications.

E. The term "cost effective" means an improvement that will result in substantial operational cost savings to the landlord by reducing electricity or fossil fuel consumption, water, or other utility costs. The term "operational cost savings" means a reduction in operational costs to the landlord through the application of Building improvements that achieve cost savings over the Firm Term of the Lease sufficient to pay the incremental additional costs of making the Building improvements.

F. Instructions for obtaining an ENERGY STAR® Label are provided at HTTP://WWW.ENERGYSTAR.GOV/BUILDINGS/FACILITY-OWNERS-

AND-MANAGERS/EXISTING-BUILDINGS/EARN-RECOGNITION/ (use “Portfolio Manager” to apply). The ENERGY STAR® Building Upgrade Manual (HTTP://WWW.ENERGYSTAR.GOV/BUILDINGS/FACILITY-OWNERS-AND-MANAGERS/EXISTING-BUILDINGS/SAVE-ENERGY/) and Building Upgrade Value Calculator (HTTP://WWW.ENERGYSTAR.GOV/BUILDINGS/TOOLS-AND-RESOURCES/BUILDING-UPGRADE- VALUE-CALCULATOR) are tools which can be useful in considering energy efficiency and conservation improvements to Buildings.

G. If one or more of the statutory exceptions applies, and the offered Space is not in a Building that has earned the ENERGY STAR® Label within one year prior to the due date for final proposal revisions, the successful Offeror will be excused from performing any agreed-to energy efficiency and conservation renovations, and benchmarking with public disclosure (as provided in (I) below, if it obtains the ENERGY STAR® Label prior to the Government’s acceptance of the Space (or not later than one year after the Lease Award Date for succeeding and superseding leases).

H. If no improvements are proposed, the Offeror must demonstrate to the Government using the ENERGY STAR® Online Tools why no energy efficiency and conservation improvements are cost effective. If such explanation is unreasonable, the offer may be rejected.

I. As described in Section 3 of the Lease, successful Offerors meeting one of the statutory exceptions above must agree to benchmark and publicly disclose the Building’s current ENERGY STAR® score, using EPA’s Portfolio Manager online software application. See the Lease for additional details.

J. All new Buildings being specifically constructed for the Government must achieve the ENERGY STAR® Label within 18 months after occupancy by the Government.

RLP NO. 3AK0288, PAGE 8 GSA TEMPLATE R100 (6/25)

K. As part of the cost effective upgrades specified under sub-paragraph D above, existing lighting systems must be upgraded to meet or exceed the stated lighting specifications in the Lease unless, with respect to upgrades otherwise in excess of the minimum stated requirements, Offeror can demonstrate, using the Building Upgrade Value Calculator discussed above, that such additional upgrades are not cost effective over the Firm Term of the Lease.

3.01 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS (JUN 2012)

Offeror shall prepare a complete offer, using the forms provided with this RLP, and submit the completed lease proposal package to the Government as indicated below.

3.02 RECEIPT OF LEASE PROPOSALS (OCT 2024)

A. Online method - Submission through the Requirement Specific Acquisition Platform (RSAP).

1. Unless otherwise authorized by the LCO or his/her designated representative, offers may only be submitted electronically to GSA using the Requirement Specific Acquisition Platform (RSAP) located at leasing.gsa.gov. RSAP enables Offerors to electronically offer space for lease to the Federal Government. The offer submission process is web-enabled, allowing all registered participants to submit and update offers to lease space to the Government in response to a single RLP for a specific space requirement.

2. In order to be considered for award, offers conforming to the requirements of the RLP shall be submitted through RSAP no later than

November 10, 2025, 5:00PM Pacific Time.

3. Offerors must submit all documentation identified in this RLP using RSAP. RSAP generates the Lessor's Annual Cost Statement (GSA

Form 1217) and Proposal to Lease Space (GSA Form 1364) based on the Offeror’s inputs to the online workflow. These auto-populated forms are available for review on the attachments page of the RSAP workflow and are automatically included as part of the offer upon submission; there is no need for the Offeror to manually complete the attached blank version of these two forms. Offerors can revise the auto-generated GSA Form 1217 and/or GSA Form 1364 by changing the inputs to the online workflow. Any subsequent revisions to offer documents must be submitted through RSAP. There is no paper-based submission process under this RLP and paper submissions will not be considered, unless otherwise authorized by the LCO.
