1. Sub-Sublease. Sub-Sublandlord does hereby sublet to Sub-Subtenant and Sub-Subtenant does hereby sublet from Sub-Sublandlord the Sub-Subleased Premises, subject to the terms and conditions of this Sub-Sublease. The parties hereto hereby agree to the rentable square footage of the Sub-Subleased Premises set forth above, and such rentable square footage, and any of the economic terms hereof based thereon, shall not be adjusted based on further remeasurement. Sub- Subtenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use, in common with Sub-Sublandlord and any other occupants in the Project, and subject to reasonable rules and regulations as may be promulgated by Sub-Sublandlord from time to time, certain of the Common Areas (as defined below), which, as of the date of this Sub-Sublease, include, without limitation, a mother’s room, a common conference room, and a collaboration space located on the third (3rd) floor of the Building, a café located on the ground floor of the Building, a coffee bar located in the 269 Building and a fitness center located in the 269 Building, as well as certain interior hallways, restrooms and lobbies, and certain exterior spaces included within the Project.

The manner in which the Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be in accordance with any applicable requirements of the Master Lease and the Sublease, but otherwise at the sole discretion of Sub-Sublandlord. Sub-Sublandlord reserves the right to close (temporarily or permanently), make alterations and additions to, or change the location of elements of the Project and the Common Areas.

2. Term.

(a) Sub-Sublease Contingencies. Sub-Sublandlord and Sub-Subtenant expressly acknowledge and agree that this Sub-Sublease is subject to the following contingencies (the “Sub- Sublease Contingencies”): (i) Master Landlord’s prior written consent to this Sub-Sublease, in a form provided by Master Landlord that is reasonably acceptable to Sub-Sublandlord and Sub- Subtenant (“Master Landlord’s Consent”); (ii) Sublandlord’s prior written consent to this Sub- Sublease in a form provided by Sublandlord that is reasonably acceptable to Sub-Sublandlord and Sub-Subtenant (“Sublandlord’s Consent”); and (iii) the occurrence of the Closing Date. Sub- Sublandlord shall use good faith efforts to obtain Master Landlord’s Consent and Sublandlord’s Consent at Sub-Sublandlord’s sole cost and expense, and Sub-Subtenant agrees to cooperate in all

 

-2-


reasonable respects in connection therewith. If Sub-Sublandlord, despite the parties’ good faith efforts, fails to obtain Master Landlord’s Consent or Sublandlord’s Consent, or if the Closing Date fails to occur, in either instance within forty-five (45) days after the Execution Date, then either Sub-Sublandlord or Sub-Subtenant may terminate this Sub-Sublease by giving written notice thereof to the other at any time prior to receipt of both Master Landlord’s Consent and Sublandlord’s Consent, and Sub-Sublandlord shall return to Sub-Subtenant any amounts delivered by Sub-Subtenant under this Sub-Sublease. Neither party shall have any liability to the other for any termination or cancellation of this Sub-Sublease as a result of Master Landlord’s or Sublandlord’s failure or refusal to consent to this Sub-Sublease, unless such party by its willful act caused Master Landlord or Sublandlord to refuse to timely consent to this Sub-Sublease. Neither party shall have any liability to the other under this Sub-Sublease for any termination or cancellation of this Sub-Sublease as a result of the failure of the Closing Date to occur; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be deemed to limit either party’s liability to the other under the Notes Agreement, if any, for the failure of the Closing Date to occur.

(b) Sub-Sublease Term. This Sub-Sublease shall be for a term (the “Sub-Sublease Term”) commencing upon the date (the “Commencement Date”) that is the later to occur of (i) the Closing Date, or (ii) the date the Sub-Subleased Premises is delivered to Sub-Subtenant in the Delivery Condition (as defined below) and ending on the day immediately preceding the third anniversary of the Commencement Date (the “Expiration Date”) or any earlier date on which this Sub-Sublease is terminated earlier in accordance with its terms; provided, however, that in no event shall the Sub-Sublease Term extend beyond the term of the Master Lease or the Sublease. Sub-Sublandlord anticipates delivering the Sub-Subleased Premises to Sub-Subtenant in the Delivery Condition on July 2, 2018 (the “Anticipated Commencement Date”). For purposes of this Sub-Sublease,Sub-Sublease Year” shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Sub-Sublease Term; provided, however, the first Sub-Sublease Year shall commence on the Commencement Date and end on the day immediately preceding the first anniversary of the Commencement Date, the second and each succeeding Sub-Sublease Year shall commence on an anniversary of the Commencement Date, and the last Sub-Sublease Year shall end on the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Sub-Sublandlord does not deliver possession of the Sub-Subleased Premises to Sub-Subtenant on or before the Anticipated Commencement Date set forth above in the Delivery Condition, then this Sub-Sublease shall not terminate and Sub-Sublandlord will have no liability for such failure to deliver the Sub-Subleased Premises to Sub-Subtenant; provided, however, that the Commencement Date shall be delayed until the date that Sub-Sublandlord delivers the Sub-Subleased Premises in the Delivery Condition. As used herein, the term “Delivery Condition” shall mean that each of the following shall have occurred: (i) Sub-Sublandlord shall have delivered occupancy of the Sub-Subleased Premises to Sub-Subtenant without Sub-Sublandlord’s occupants therein and with the Demising Work complete, and (ii) the Sub-Subleased Premises shall be free and clear of trash and debris, and free and clear of Sub-Sublandlord’s personal property, except for any items of furniture or other personal property (if any) that exist in the Sub-Subleased Premises as of the date hereof and are listed on Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof (collectively, the “FF&E”), and (iii) with all Building Systems serving the Sub-Subleased Premises shall be in working order and condition. In no event shall Sub-Subtenant enter any portion of the Sub-Subleased Premises until the Sub-Sublease Contingencies have been satisfied. Upon Sub-Sublandlord’s delivery of the Sub- Subleased Premises to Sub-Subtenant, Sub-Sublandlord and Sub-Subtenant shall complete and execute the Sub-Sublease Commencement Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D, confirming,

 

-3-


among other things, the Commencement Date and Expiration Date for the Sub-Subleased Premises. Sub-Subtenant shall have no right whatsoever pursuant to this Sub-Sublease to extend the Sub-Sublease Term for any portion of the Sub-Subleased Premises (including but not limited to the Extension Right of Sublandlord pursuant to Section 40 of the Master Lease Agreement), and Sub-Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that this Sub-Sublease does not incorporate by reference or include any right of Sublandlord in the Master Lease to extend the term of the Master Lease or any right of Sub-Sublandlord in the Fourth Amendment either to enter into a Direct Lease following the expiration of the Master Lease or to extend the term of any Direct Lease entered into upon the earlier termination of the Master Lease.

3. Delivery and Condition.

(a) As-Is. Sub-Sublandlord shall deliver the Sub-Subleased Premises to Sub- Subtenant on the Commencement Date in an “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition, except that Sub- Sublandlord shall deliver the Sub-Subleased Premises in the Delivery Condition. Sub-Subtenant acknowledges that Sub-Sublandlord has made no representations of any kind in connection with improvements or physical conditions on, or bearing on, the use of the Sub-Subleased Premises and that, except as expressly provided in the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Work Letter”), Sub-Sublandlord shall have no obligation whatsoever to perform any improvements or alterations to the Sub-Subleased Premises or provide Sub-Subtenant with any improvement allowance with respect to the Sub-Subleased Premises.

(b) FF&E. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sub-Sublease, during the Sub-Sublease Term Sub-Sublandlord shall provide, and shall permit Sub-Subtenant to use, the FF&E (if any). Sub-Subtenant shall accept the FF&E in its presently existing, “AS-IS, WHERE-IS, WITH ALL FAULTS” condition, and Sub-Subtenant shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for all maintenance and repair of the FF&E, normal wear and tear excepted. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Sub-Sublease Term, Sub-Subtenant shall surrender possession of the FF&E to Sub-Sublandlord in as good order and condition as when Sub- Subtenant took possession of the FF&E, reasonable wear and tear excepted; provided, however, in the event any items of the FF&E are missing or damaged, Sub-Subtenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall replace or repair (as applicable) such items of the FF&E. Sub-Sublandlord shall have no liability to Sub-Subtenant of any kind under any circumstances arising out of or in connection with the FF&E or Sub-Subtenant’s use thereof. Sub-Subtenant hereby releases Sub- Sublandlord from and against any and all claims, damages, costs, expenses and liabilities arising out of or in connection with the FF&E, and/or Sub-Subtenant’s use thereof, including, without limitation, any taxes with respect to the FF&E and/or Sub-Subtenant’s use thereof, and any related interest and penalties resulting from late payment by Sub-Subtenant thereof (collectively, “FF&E Claims”), and Sub-Subtenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Sub-Sublandlord harmless from and against any and all FF&E Claims accruing on and after the Execution Date.

4. Rent.

(a) Base Rent. On or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date, Sub-Subtenant shall pay to Sub-Sublandlord base rent (the “Base Rent”) for the entire Sub- Sublease Term in the amount of One Million One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,100,000.00). The Base Rent shall be paid and satisfied in full on the Closing Date by the issuance to the Sub-Sublandlord of a number of shares of the Sub-Subtenant’s Series B Preferred Stock (the “Base Rent Shares”) equal to the Base Rent divided by the purchase price per share of Series B Preferred Stock under the Purchase Agreement rounded down to the nearest whole share (the “Price Per Share”).

 

-4-


(b) Transfer Restrictions. The Sub-Sublandlord shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Base Rent Shares while the Base Rent Shares are subject to the Repurchase Option (as defined below). After any Base Rent Shares have been released from the Repurchase Option, the Sub-Sublandlord shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in such Base Rent Shares except that subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, the Base Rent Shares may be transferred by the Sub-Sublandlord, without Sub-Subtenant’s consent to any other entity who directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Sub-Sublandlord and with the Sub-Subtenant’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) to any other entity or person. All such transferees of Base Rent Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Base Rent Shares or interest subject to the provisions of this Section 4(b), and the Transaction Documents and will agree to be bound by this Section 4(b) and by the Transaction Documents, and will take all steps necessary to become a party to the Transaction Documents by executing counterpart signature pages thereto. Any sale or transfer of the Base Rent Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Section 4(b) are satisfied.

(c) Repurchase Option. In the event of the termination of this Sub-Sublease for any reason other than (i) a material, uncured default of Sub-Subtenant under this Sub-Sublease or (ii) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Sub-Subtenant, the Sub- Subtenant shall upon the date of such termination (the “Termination Date”) have an irrevocable, exclusive option (the “Repurchase Option”) for a period of three (3) months from the Termination Date to repurchase all or any portion of the Unvested Shares (as defined below) at a purchase price of $0.001 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassification and the like); provided, that in the event that the Sub-Subtenant elects to repurchase all or a portion of the Unvested Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Option (the “Repurchased Shares”), then Sub-Sublandlord in its sole discretion may elect to retain the Repurchased Shares by paying to Sub-Subtenant within 10 Business Days of the Sub-Subtenant’s election to repurchase the Repurchased Shares an amount equal to the Retention Payment (as defined below), in which case upon the receipt of the Retention Payment by the Sub-Subtenant, the Sub-Sublandlord shall retain the Repurchased Shares. 100% of the Base Rent Shares shall initially be subject to the Repurchase Option (the “Vesting Shares”). 1/36th of the Vesting Shares shall be released from the Repurchase Option on the one-month anniversary of the Commencement Date, and an additional 1/36th of the Vesting Shares shall be released from the Repurchase Option on the same day of each month thereafter, until all Vesting Shares are released from the Repurchase Option; provided, however, that such scheduled releases from the Repurchase Option shall immediately cease as of the Termination Date. Fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. “Unvested Shares” means Base Rent Shares that have not yet been released from the Repurchase Option. “Retention Payment” means an amount in cash equal to the number of Repurchased Shares multiplied by the Price Per Share. In the event of (i) or (ii) above, or an acquisition or initial public offering of Sub-Subtenant, the Unvested Shares shall fully and immediately vest, and the Repurchase Option shall lapse with respect to the Unvested Shares.

(d) Additional Rent. All sums due from Sub-Subtenant to Sub-Sublandlord or to any third party under the terms of this Sub-Sublease (other than Base Rent) shall be additional rent (“Additional Rent”), including, without limitation, any charges, as they relate to the Sub- Subleased Premises during the Sub-Sublease Term, that are billed to Sub-Sublandlord by Master Landlord, Sublandlord or a third party other than charges (such as late charges) assessed as a result of Sub-Sublandlord’s failure to comply with the Master Lease and/or the Sublease, unless such failure was caused by Sub-Subtenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sub-Subtenant shall have no obligation to pay (and Base Rent shall be deemed to include) Sub-Subtenant’s Share of the charges for “Operating Expenses,” as defined in Section 5 of the Master Lease Agreement, and “Taxes,” as defined in Section 9 of the Master Lease Agreement or “TI Rent” as defined in Section 4 of the Master Lease Agreement; provided, however, if Sub-Sublandlord reasonably determines that Sub-Subtenant is consuming Utilities or other services in excess of its proportionate share of the same (based upon the size of the Sub-Subleased Premises compared to the size of the Building or the Project), then Sub-Subtenant shall pay to Sub-Sublandlord, as Additional Rent, within ten (10) business days after receipt of an invoice, the cost of such excess consumption. All Additional Rent that is payable to Sub-Sublandlord shall be paid at the time and place provided herein for payment of Base Rent, except as otherwise provided in this Sub-Sublease or instructed by Sub- Sublandlord in writing or set forth in the Master Lease or the Sublease. Sub-Sublandlord will have the same remedies for a default in the payment of any Additional Rent as for a default in the payment of Base Rent. Together, Base Rent, Additional Rent and any other sums due hereunder from Sub-Subtenant are sometimes referred to in this Sub-Sublease as “Rent”. Any time Rent abates under the Sublease, Rent otherwise required to be paid to Sub-Sublandlord under this Sub- Sublease (and not waived hereunder) shall abate proportionally to the extent Sub-Subtenant is prevented from, and does not actually use the Sub-Subleased Premises as set forth in the Master Lease, as incorporated herein. If Sub-Subtenant is entitled to any abated Base Rent which has been prepaid, Sub-Sublandlord shall return such abated amount to Sub-Subtenant within thirty (30) days.

(e) Late Charge; Interest. If Sub-Subtenant fails to pay any Rent within five (5) days of the date when due, Sub-Subtenant shall pay a late charge and interest thereon in accordance with terms of Section 21 of the Master Lease Agreement, as incorporated herein, which are incorporated herein by this reference; provided that the one grace period as set forth in Section 21 of the Master Lease shall also apply to this Sub-Sublease to the extent such grace period is provided to Sub-Sublandlord under the Sublease. No endorsement or statement on a check or letter accompanying a check or payment shall be considered an accord and satisfaction of past due Rent. Sub-Subtenant’s covenant to pay Rent is independent of every other covenant in this Sub-Sublease.

5. Compliance with Laws; Use. The Sub-Subleased Premises shall be used for research and development laboratory (which laboratory shall be a biosafety level 2 space), office and other uses consistent with the character of the Project and otherwise in compliance with the terms of the Master Lease and the Sublease. Following the Commencement Date, Sub-Subtenant and its employees, agents, contractors and invitees (the “Sub-Subtenant Controlled Parties”) shall comply with all statutes, codes, ordinances, orders, rules and regulations of any municipal or governmental entity, including, without limitation, all applicable federal, state and local Laws (as defined below) or regulations governing protection of, or damage to the environment, or the treatment, storage or disposal of hazardous materials (collectively referred to as “Laws”), regarding the operation of Sub-Subtenant’s business and Sub-Subtenant’s particular use of the

Any other alterations, additions or improvements to the Sub-Subleased Premises by or for Sub-Subtenant (collectively referred to as “Alterations”) shall require the prior written consent of Sub-Sublandlord, Sublandlord (unless, with respect to Sublandlord’s consent only, such Alterations are “Notice-Only Alterations,” as defined in Section 12 of the Master Lease Agreement or Master Landlord does not have the right to look to Sublandlord for liability for any matters for which consent is sought), and Master Landlord to the extent required under Section 12 of the Master Lease Agreement, and shall be made in accordance with Section 12 of the Master Lease Agreement, which is incorporated herein by this reference (provided, however, that all references therein to “Tenant” and “Premises” shall mean “Sub- Subtenant” and the “Sub-Subleased Premises”, respectively, and all references therein to “Landlord” shall mean “Sub-Sublandlord,” “Sublandlord” and “Master Landlord”).

Sub-Subtenant shall fully discharge any such lien within ten (10) days after it first becomes aware of the same. Sub-Subtenant shall not damage or deface the furnishings, walls, floors, ceilings or other portions of the Sub-Subleased Premises. Any damage to the Sub-Subleased Premises caused by Sub-Subtenant or a Sub- Subtenant Controlled Party shall be promptly repaired by Sub-Subtenant, to Sub-Sublandlord’s reasonable satisfaction, at Sub-Subtenant’s sole cost and expense. All Alterations to the Sub- Subleased Premises shall remain upon the Sub-Subleased Premises following the Expiration Date, provided that Sub-Sublandlord receives a written waiver from Master Landlord of its surrender

 

-8-


obligations set forth in Section 28 of the Master Lease Agreement with respect to such Alterations (a “Surrender Restoration Waiver”). If a Surrender Restoration Waiver is not obtained, then Sub-Subtenant shall, prior to the Expiration Date, promptly remove any Alterations performed by or for Sub-Subtenant in the Sub-Subleased Premises to the extent required by Master Landlord at Sub-Subtenant’s sole cost and expense and repair any damage to the Sub-Subleased Premises caused by such removal; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sub-Sublease, Sub-Subtenant shall not be required to remove any Installations (as defined in the Master Lease) existing in the Sub-Subleased Premises as of the Execution Date or the Initial Improvements installed by Sub-Sublandlord pursuant to the Work Letter.

For purposes of this Sub-Sublease, the term “Tenant” in Section 17 of the Master Lease shall be deemed to mean Sub-Subtenant and the term “Landlord” shall be deemed to mean Master Landlord (except that the release and waiver of subrogation in the fourth paragraph shall also apply as between Sub-Sublandlord and Sub-Subtenant, as well as between Sublandlord and Sub- Subtenant) and the term “Premises” shall mean the “Sub-Subleased Premises”, except that all policies of liability insurance required to be maintained by Sub-Subtenant hereunder and thereunder shall name Sub-Sublandlord, Sublandlord and Master Landlord as additional named insureds and all notices related to such insurance and all evidence of such policies shall be delivered to Sub-Sublandlord, Sublandlord and Master Landlord.

In no event shall Sub-Sublandlord have any obligation to Sub-Subtenant to restore the Sub-Subleased Premises if damaged, destroyed or condemned as described in Sections 18 and 19 of the Master Lease.

14. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a material breach of this Sub-Sublease and a Default by Sub-Subtenant: (i) Sub-Subtenant’s failure to pay Rent or any other amount within three (3) days of the date of Sub-Sublandlord’s notice of default (which notice only need be given twice in any twelve (12) month period); (ii) Sub-Subtenant’s vacation of the Sub-Subleased Premises for a period of ten (10) business days or more (it being understood that Sub-Subtenant’s ongoing collaboration with Sub-Sublandlord and other occupants of the Premises is material consideration to Sub-Sublandlord for entering into this Sub-Sublease); (iii) all those items of default set forth in the Master Lease where the obligation is incorporated in this Sub-Sublease, including, without limitation, the Defaults listed in Section 20 of the Master Lease Agreement, which remain uncured after the cure period provided in the Master Lease as such cure period is adjusted pursuant to Section 16(a) of this Sub-Sublease; or (iv) Sub-Subtenant’s failure to perform any other term, provision or covenant of this Sub-Sublease, which failure remains uncured after thirty (30) days written notice thereof, or if such failure is not susceptible of cure within thirty (30) days, such additional time as reasonably required for such cure (not to exceed ninety (90) days in any event) provided Sub-Subtenant commences such cure within said thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.

15. Remedies. Upon any default by Sub-Subtenant under the terms of this Sub-Sublease, beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Sub-Sublandlord shall have the remedies set forth in Section 21 of the Master Lease Agreement (which rights are hereby incorporated by reference into the terms of this Sub-Sublease) as if Sub-Sublandlord is Master Landlord, including, without limitation, the right to terminate this Sub-Sublease, in which case Sub-Subtenant shall immediately surrender the Sub-Subleased Premises to Sub-Sublandlord. If Sub-Subtenant fails to surrender the Sub-Subleased Premises, Sub-Sublandlord may, in compliance with applicable Law and without prejudice to any other right or remedy, enter upon and take possession of the Sub-Subleased Premises. In addition to the right to terminate this Sub-Sublease and collect damages, Sub- Sublandlord shall have the right to pursue any other remedy provided under the Master Lease or that is now or hereafter available at Law or in equity, subject to any limitations otherwise expressly set forth in this Sub-Sublease.

16. Master Lease.

(a) Sub-Subtenant takes possession of the Sub-Subleased Premises, and enters into this Sub-Sublease, subject and subordinate to all of the terms, covenants, conditions, and restrictions of the Sublease and the Master Lease, except as otherwise expressly provided for herein. Sub- Subtenant’s use of those Common Areas located in the 269 Building or otherwise subject to the 269 Sublease and the 269 Master Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all of the terms, covenants, conditions and restriction of the 269 Sublease and the 269 Master Lease. Neither Sub- Sublandlord nor Sub-Subtenant shall by act or omission cause a breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, and restrictions contained in the Master Lease or the Sublease. Sub- Sublandlord shall not modify or amend the Master Lease or the Sublease in a manner that would either: (i) change the Sub-Sublease Term, Base Rent or other economic terms or Permitted Use set forth in this Sub-Sublease, (ii) modify the events of default pursuant to this Sub-Sublease, or (iii) have an adverse impact on Sub-Subtenant’s use of or operations at the Sub-Subleased Premises or increase Sub-Subtenant’s obligations under this Sub-Sublease without Sub-Subtenant’s prior written consent. With respect to any obligation of Sub-Subtenant to be performed under this Sub- Sublease, wherever the Master Lease grants to Sub-Sublandlord a specified number of days after notice or other time condition to perform its corresponding obligation under the Master Lease (excluding the payment of Rent), Sub-Subtenant shall have one-third fewer days (rounded to the nearest whole day) to perform the obligation (by way of example only, Sub-Subtenant shall have 10 fewer days to perform an obligation to be performed in 30 days, and shall have 2 fewer days to perform an obligation to be performed in 5 days), including without limitation curing any defaults. Any default notice or other notice of any obligations (including any billing or invoice for any Rent or any other expense or charge due under the Master Lease) from Master Landlord which is received by Sub-Subtenant (whether directly or as a result of being forwarded by Sublandlord or Sub-Sublandlord) shall constitute such notice from Sub-Sublandlord to Sub-Subtenant under this Sub-Sublease without the need for any additional notice from Sub-Sublandlord.

(b) Except as modified by this Sub-Sublease, including, without limitation, the provisions of the Master Lease excluded below in this Section 16(b), it is expressly understood, acknowledged and agreed by Sub-Subtenant that all of the other terms, conditions and covenants of this Sub-Sublease shall be those stated in the Master Lease to the extent applicable to the Sub- Sublease Premises and first arising or accruing during the Sub-Sublease Term. Sub-Subtenant shall be subject to, bound by and comply with all of said Articles and Sections of the Master Lease with respect to the Sub-Subleased Premises and shall satisfy all applicable terms and conditions of the Master Lease for the benefit of Sub-Sublandlord, Sublandlord and Master Landlord, it being understood and agreed that wherever in the Master Lease the word “Tenant” appears, for the purposes of this Sub-Sublease, the word “Sub-Subtenant” shall be substituted, wherever the word “Landlord” appears, for the purposes of this Sub-Sublease, the word “Sub-Sublandlord” shall be substituted and wherever the word “Premises” appears, for the purposes of this Sub-Sublease, the word “Sub-Subleased Premises” shall be substituted. In the event of any conflict between this Sub-Sublease, on the one hand, and the Master Lease or the Sublease, on the other hand, the terms of this Sub-Sublease shall control as between Sub-Sublandlord and Sub-Subtenant. Whenever the provisions of the Master Lease incorporated as provisions of this Sub-Sublease require the written consent of Master Landlord, said provisions shall be construed to require the written consent of Master Landlord, Sublandlord and Sub-Sublandlord. Wherever the provisions of the Master Lease incorporated as provisions of this Sub-Sublease require the indemnification of Master Landlord, said provisions shall be construed to require the indemnification of Master Landlord, Sublandlord

(f) Sub-Subtenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver to Sub- Sublandlord, any certificate or other document evidencing the status of the Sub-Sublease or subordination of this Sub-Sublease to the Master Lease, that Sub-Sublandlord or Master Landlord may reasonably request, in accordance with Sections 23 and 27 of the Master Lease, which are (except as expressly provided in Section 16(b) above) incorporated herein by this reference (provided, however, the terms “Tenant” and “Landlord” shall be deemed to mean “Sub-Subtenant” and the “Sub-Sublandlord,” respectively).

(h) Sub-Sublandlord shall fully perform all of its obligations under the Master Lease to the extent Sub-Subtenant has not expressly agreed to perform such obligations under this Sub- Sublease. Sub-Sublandlord, with respect to the obligations of Sublandlord under the Sublease or the obligations of Master Landlord under the Master Lease, as the case may be, shall use Sub- Sublandlord’s diligent good faith efforts to cause such obligations to be performed for the benefit of Sub-Subtenant. Such diligent good faith efforts shall include, without limitation, upon Sub- Subtenant’s written request, immediately notifying Sublandlord or Master Landlord, as applicable, of its nonperformance, and requesting that Sublandlord or Master Landlord, respectively, perform its obligations.

For purposes of Section 1938(a) of the California Civil Code, Sub-Sublandlord hereby discloses to Sub-Subtenant, and Sub-Subtenant hereby acknowledges, that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp) to the actual knowledge of Sub-Sublandlord. In addition, the following notice is hereby provided as required by Section 1938(e) of the California Civil Code: “A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law.

25. Anti-Corruption.

WORK LETTER

This Work Letter shall set forth the terms and conditions relating to the initial construction of improvements in the Sub-Subleased Premises. Capitalized terms used in this Work Letter shall have the meanings given such terms in the Sub-Sublease to which this Work Letter is attached (including in the Sublease, as provided in the Sub-Sublease, and in the Master Lease, as incorporated into the Sublease).

SECTION 1

CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS FOR THE PREMISES

Sub-Sublandlord shall construct the following improvements in the Sub-Subleased Premises in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all Laws (the “Initial Improvements”): (i) a demising wall between the laboratory in the Sub-Subleased Premises and the adjacent space (“Demising Work”), at Sub-Sublandlord’s sole cost and expense; and (ii) four (4) executive offices within Room 333, and a bench with sink, in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Sub-Subtenant (“Sub-Subtenant’s Initial Improvements”), at Sub- Subtenant’s sole cost and expense (for clarity, in cash and not equity), in each case, with the work to be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the Master Lease and the Sublease.

SECTION 2

OVER-ALLOWANCE AMOUNT

If Sub-Subtenant requests changes or modifications to the Initial Improvements once plans and specifications therefor are approved by Sub-Subtenant, and if Sub-Sublandlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, approves such changes or modifications (and thereafter obtains the consent of Master Landlord and Sublandlord to such changes or modifications), then any additional costs which arise in connection with such changes or modifications shall be paid by Sub-Subtenant to Sub-Sublandlord immediately upon Sub-Sublandlord’s request.

SECTION 3

CONTRACTOR’S WARRANTIES AND GUARANTIES

Sub-Subtenant hereby waives all claims against Sub-Sublandlord relating to, or arising out of the construction of, the Initial Improvements; provided, however, at Sub-Subtenant’s request, and at Sub-Subtenant’s sole cost and expense (which shall be paid immediately upon Sub- Sublandlord’s request), Sub-Sublandlord will use reasonable efforts to enforce any warranties and guaranties by the contractor who constructs the Initial Improvements (the “Contractor”) relating to the Initial Improvements.

SECTION 4

COMPLETION OF THE INITIAL IMPROVEMENTS DURING SUB-SUBTENANT’S OCCUPANCY

Sub-Subtenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that some portion of the Initial Improvements may be performed while Sub-Subtenant is in occupancy of the Sub-Subleased Premises, and Sub-Sublandlord shall not be obligated to construct the Initial Improvements during other than normal business hours or to pay overtime or other premiums in connection therewith; provided, however, that if the Sub-Subtenant Initial Improvements are not substantially complete on or before July 2, 2018, then Sub-Sublandlord shall provide comparable space within the Subleased Premises for use by Sub-Subtenant at no cost to Sub-Subtenant until such construction is complete; and provided further that if the Initial Improvements are not substantially complete on or before September 30, 2018, Sub-Subtenant shall have the right terminate this Sub-Sublease by written notice to Sub-Sublandlord, in which event the provisions of Section 4(c) of the Sub- Sublease with respect to a termination of this Lease for reason other than Sub-Subtenant default shall apply. Sub-Subtenant agrees to cooperate with Sub-Sublandlord’s construction of the Initial Improvements, including permitting access by construction personnel in and about the Sub- Subleased Premises, boxing and relocating or removing Sub-Subtenant’s personal property, relocating or removing Sub-Subtenant’s furniture, fixtures and equipment and relocating or removing Sub-Subtenant’s personnel. Any costs to Sub-Sublandlord resulting from the failure by Sub-Subtenant to cooperate with Sub-Sublandlord in the construction of the Initial Improvements shall be reimbursed by Sub-Subtenant promptly upon demand as an addition to the Over- Allowance Amount; provided, however, that Sub-Subtenant shall have no liability for such costs unless Sub-Sublandlord shall have provided written notice of such failure to Sub-Subtenant and Sub-Subtenant’s failure to cooperate shall have continued for a period of two (2) business days following written notice thereof. Sub-Subtenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the construction of the Initial Improvements may create noise, odors and dust and leave debris in and about the Sub-Subleased Premises and elsewhere in and about the Building, and may be otherwise disruptive to the business operations of Sub-Subtenant. Sub-Subtenant hereby agrees that the construction of the Initial Improvements and Sub-Sublandlord’s actions in connection therewith shall in no way constitute a constructive eviction of Sub-Subtenant nor entitle Sub-Subtenant to any abatement of Rent with respect to the Sub-Subleased Premises. Sub-Subtenant’s obligations with respect to the Sub-Subleased Premises shall be unaffected by Sub-Sublandlord’s construction of the Initial Improvements, the Commencement Date shall occur as otherwise set forth in this Sub-Sublease without regard to Sub-Sublandlord’s construction of the Initial Improvements in the Sub-Subleased Premises, and Sub-Subtenant shall make all payments of Rent in accordance with the terms of this Sub-Sublease, during the construction of the Initial Improvements. Sub- Sublandlord shall have no responsibility, or for any reason be liable to Sub-Subtenant, for any direct or indirect injury to or interference with Sub-Subtenant’s business arising from the construction of the Initial Improvements, nor shall Sub-Subtenant be entitled to any compensation or damages from Sub-Sublandlord for loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Sub-Subleased Premises or of any personal property or improvements of Sub-Subtenant resulting from the construction of the Initial Improvements or Sub-Sublandlord’s actions in connection therewith, or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by the construction of the Initial Improvements or Sub-Sublandlord’s actions in connection therewith.
