WITNESSETH:

In consideration of the rents, covenants and conditions herein set forth, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant, promise and agree as follows:

1.    LEASED PREMISES.

(A)      INITIAL LEASED PREMISES. Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant leases from Landlord 3928 Varsity Drive, situated in the City of Ann Arbor, County of Washtenaw, State of Michigan: containing approximately 4,797 rentable square feet of space (“Leased Premises”), which Leased Premises are located in a multi-tenant complex, commonly known at this time as Ann Arbor Commerce Center which is zoned M-1, Limited Light Industrial, consisting of a total of approximately 141,335 rentable square feet situated on approximately 9.78 acres of land as legally described on Exhibit “B” attached hereto hereinafter referred to as the “Complex”, together with a non-exclusive right to use the Common Areas, hereinafter defined. Exhibit “A” attached hereto shows the approximate configuration of the Leased Premises as of the date of this Lease.

(B)      RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER. Provided Tenant is not otherwise in default under the terms of the Lease and there exists no event with which the passing of time or the giving of notice would create a default under the Lease, Tenant shall have the First Right of Offer on any contiguous space should it become available during the term of this Lease. Upon Landlord’s notice to Tenant of such availability, Tenant shall have forty-eight (48) hours, two (2) regular business days, to accept or reject the space. After said forty-eight (48) hours, the first right of refusal shall be null and void. In the event Tenant accepts the expansion space, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment to this Lease stating that the Term of the Lease shall be extended a minimum of thirty-six (36) months following the new rent commencement date at a rate no less than the existing rate per square foot with the same annual increases as provided for under the Lease. Said agreement shall be executed by both parties within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant notice to accept the expansion space or the first right of refusal shall be null and void.

2.    TERM.

(A)      INITIAL TERM. The initial term of this Lease will be for a period of thirty-eight (38) months in addition to any partial month (“Initial Term”) from and after the “Lease Commencement Date”, which shall be deemed to be July 1, 2015.

If Landlord shall be unable for any reason to give possession of the Leased Premises to Tenant on the Lease Commencement Date, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for the failure to deliver possession and the obligation to pay rent (as defined below) shall not commence until the Lease Commencement Date occurs. Furthermore, no such failure to deliver possession on the Lease Commencement Date shall affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of Tenant hereunder.

At least three (3) months prior to the expiration date of this Lease, Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s intention to surrender the Leased Premises at the normal expiration of this Lease. If said written notice is not timely given, the Tenant shall become a hold over Tenant on a month-to-month basis in accordance with Paragraph 19 of this Lease until such time proper notice to terminate is provided to Landlord.

1

(B)      Tenant’s Option to Extend. Provided Tenant has not and is not otherwise in default under the terms of this Lease and there exists no event with which the passing of time or the giving of notice would create a default under this Lease, Tenant shall have one (1) option to extend the term of this Lease for a period of three (3) additional years beyond the Initial Term (the “Option Term”) commencing upon the expiration of the Initial Term. Landlord must receive written notice of Tenant’s election to exercise an option to extent the term of this Lease prior to February 1, 2018. The written notice shall be sent to Landlord by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service or via certified mail, return receipt requested, time being declared of the essence. In the event Tenant materially defaults hereunder, Tenant’s exercise of its option to extend the term of this Lease shall, at Landlord’s election, be deemed waived by Tenant and no longer available to Tenant. During the Option Term, all terms and conditions of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect excepting monthly Rent which shall be as follows:

OPTION PERIOD	MONTHLY RENT
September 1, 2018 – August 31, 2019	$4,479.00
September 1, 2019 – August 31, 2020	$4,614.00
September 1, 2020 – August 31, 2021	$4,753.00

(C)      Tenant’s Early Termination Option. Provided Tenant is not otherwise in default under the terms of this Lease and there exists no event with which the passing of time or the giving of notice would create a default under this Lease, Tenant shall have a one (1)-time Option to Terminate this Lease as of the date which is twenty-four (24) months following the Rent Commencement Date (“Early Termination Date”) provided Tenant gives Landlord irrevocable written notice nine (9) months prior to the Early Termination Date sent via nationally recognized courier service with proof of receipt or U.S. certified mail, return receipt requested, time being of the essence. If Tenant elects to terminate this Lease early on Early Termination Date Tenant shall pay to Landlord an early termination fee equal to repayment of the unamortized free rent provided prior to the Early Termination Date, plus the unamortized costs of the Tenant Improvement Allowance and defined in Paragraph 6(A) herein below, unamortized real estate commissions associated with this Lease and one months’ rent (“Termination Fee”) which amount shall be due and payable to Landlord by Tenant at the time that Tenant gives its termination notice to Landlord. Landlord shall also retain the Security Deposit plus any damages caused to the Leased Premises if any at which time Tenant vacates. If Tenant timely provides the termination notice to Landlord required under this Paragraph and timely pays the Termination Fee, then this Lease shall terminate on the “Early Termination Date” as if it had reached its normal date of expiration. Tenant shall pay all Rent and any Additional Rent charges (if any) due Landlord as required in this Lease through the Early Termination Date. Tenant shall return the Leased Premises to Landlord on or before the Early Termination Date in the condition required in this Lease. If proper notice as required by this Lease is not given or if Tenant fails to pay the Early Termination Fee required by this Lease this Lease shall continue in full force and effect through the end of the Initial Term of any future extensions thereof. If Tenant provides timely notice of intent to vacate but then Tenant fails to vacate the Leased Premises on the Early Termination Date, this Lease at Landlord’s discretion shall continue on i) a month-to-month term in accordance with Paragraph 19 of this Lease or ii) shall continue in full force and effect through the end of the Initial Term or any future extension thereof. In the event Tenant commits a material breach in its performance after Tenant’s termination notice is given to Landlord, Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease shall be null and void. This Termination Option is personal to the named Tenant. If this Lease has been assigned or all a portion of the Leased Premises have been sublet, this Termination Option shall be deemed null and void and neither Tenant nor any assignee or subtenant shall have the right to exercise such option during the term of such assignment or sublease. This condition may be waived by Landlord at its sole discretion and may not be used by Tenant as a means to negate the effectiveness of Tenant’s exercise of this Termination Option.

3.    RENT.

Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the late fee represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of Tenant’s late payment. Payment of any such late charge shall not excuse or cure any default nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of its rights or remedies otherwise available to it under the terms of this Lease. Further, if Tenant is late in any payment two (2) or more times in any continuous twelve (12) month period, same shall constitute a default and Landlord shall have the option terminate this Lease and pursue any and all remedies to which Landlord is entitled under this Lease.

Tenant shall pay all costs associated with restoring and/or repairing the Leased premises immediately upon demand from Landlord. Said cost shall include a fifteen percent (15%) administrative fee. Landlord shall not be required to give prior written notice or have said costs to repair, restore or reconfigure the Leased Premises approved by Tenant prior to performing said work. If the repair work is extensive in nature, Tenant shall be deemed to be a holdover Tenant until such time the Leased Premises has been repaired and/or restored to the condition required by this Lease. Upon the earlier of vacating or Lease expiration/termination, Tenant shall be responsible for removing all of its personal property and trash from the Leased Premises at Tenant’s own expense.

Tenant shall continue said contract in force throughout the Initial Term or any extensions thereto. Any change of contract or mechanical contractor shall be made known to Landlord by Tenant and a copy of Tenant’s new contract shall be delivered to Landlord so that Landlord shall at all times have a copy of the contract currently in effect. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of the contract and evidence of the most recent service invoice and report of the mechanical contractor indicating date of service and services performed.

Said charges shall be paid to Landlord by Tenant within seven (7) days after a bill is presented to Tenant and Land shall have the same default remedy as is provided in this Lease in the event of Tenant’s failure to pay.

Tenant shall at its own expense under penalty of forfeiture and damages promptly comply with all lawful laws, orders, regulations, or ordinances of all municipal, county, state and federal authorities now established or promulgated during the Term hereof affecting the Leased Premises hereby leased and the cleanliness, safety, occupation and use of same.

16.    CONDITION OF LEASED PREMISES AT TIME OF LEASE. Tenant has examined or has been provided the opportunity examine and inspect the Complex, the Leased Premises and, all doors and systems servicing the Leased Premises prior to the making of this Lease and no representations as to the condition or state of repairs thereof have been made by Landlord, or its agent, which are not herein expressed.

(A)      COMPLETE TAKING. If the entire Leased Premises shall be acquired or taken by eminent domain, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date Tenant is no longer permitted to use the Leased Premises.

(B)      PARTIAL TAKING OF LEASED PREMISES. If any part of the Leased Premises shall be taken rendering the remaining portion unsuitable for the business of Tenant, then this Lease shall terminate as aforesaid. If such partial taking is not extensive enough to render the Leased Premises unsuitable for the business of Tenant, then this Lease shall continue in effect except that the Rent shall be reduced in the same proportion that the floor area of the Leased Premises taken bears to the original floor area thereof.

(C)      PARTIAL TAKING OF COMPLEX. If more than fifty percent (50%) of the floor area shall be taken, Landlord may, by written notice, terminate this Lease, such termination to be effective as aforesaid.

(E)      AWARD. Tenant shall not be entitled to and expressly waives all claims to any condemnation award for any taking, whether whole or partial, and whether for diminution in value of the leasehold or to the fee; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right, to the extent that same shall not reduce Landlord’s award, to claim from the condemnor, but not from Landlord, such compensation as may be recoverable by Tenant in its own right for damage to Tenant’s business and fixtures, if such claim can be made separate and apart from any award to Landlord, and without prejudice to Landlord’s award.

14

18.    SECURITY PROVISION. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Lease, Tenant will deposit with Landlord the sum of Seventeen Thousand Fifteen and No/100 Dollars ($17,015.00)*, as security for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of each and every term, covenant, condition and agreement of this Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed (“Security Deposit”). In the event that Tenant defaults in respect of any of the terms, provisions, covenants, conditions or agreements of this Lease, including but not limited to payment of any Rent or Additional Rent or any other sum payable by Tenant under this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, use, apply, or retain the whole or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any such Rent or other payment in default or for any other sum which Landlord may expend or be required to expend by reason of Tenant’s default, including any damages or deficiency in the reletting of the Leased Premises, whether such damages or deficiency may accrue before or after summary proceedings or other re-entry by Landlord. Whenever and as often as the amount of the Security Deposit held by Landlord shall be diminished by Landlord’s application thereof, Tenant shall upon demand immediately deposit additional money with Landlord sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to the original amount set forth in this Paragraph. In the event that Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all the terms, provisions, covenants, conditions and agreements of this Lease, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant within sixty (60) days after this Lease expires. In the absence of evidence satisfactory to Landlord of any assignment of the right to receive the Security Deposit, or the remaining balance thereof, Landlord may return the Security Deposit to the original Tenant, regardless of one or more assignments of this Lease itself. If Landlord shall sell or lease the Complex or otherwise assign or dispose of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to transfer the Security Deposit to the assignee for the benefit of Tenant and Landlord shall then be released by Tenant from all liability for the Security Deposit and Tenant shall thereafter not have any claim against Landlord hereunder. No holder of a mortgage or any other interest shall be responsible in connection with the Security Deposit deposited hereunder, by way of credit or payment of any Rent or otherwise, unless such holder actually shall have received the Security Deposit deposited hereunder.

*Provided Tenant has made all Rent payments on time and is not in default under the terms of this Lease, $4,098 shall be applied to the 12^th month of the Initial Term and $4,221 shall be applied to the 24^th month of the Initial Term; the amount not drawn down shall be the Security Deposit under the Lease.

19.    HOLDING OVER. In the event Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Initial Term or any extension thereof, thereafter the tenancy shall be from month to month (no partial month) in the absence of a written formal agreement to the contrary signed by both Tenant and Landlord at one and one half (1-1/2) times for the first (1^st) month then two (2) times the then monthly Rent under this Lease for the last Lease Year (plus all other charges payable by Tenant under this Lease) (“Hold Over Rent”) for each successive month from the expiration or termination of this Lease until the date the Leased Premises is delivered to Landlord in the condition required in this Lease, and Landlord’s right to damages for such unlawful occupancy shall survive. Tenant must provide Landlord with thirty (30) day prior written notice to terminate its month to month tenancy as defined herein.

20.    BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY. If the tenancy shall be taken in execution or by other process of law, or if Tenant shall file a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency, or if Tenant shall be declared bankrupt or insolvent, or if a receiver shall be appointed for Tenant’s property, or if an assignment shall be made of Tenant’s property for the benefit of creditors, Tenant shall be in default under this Lease, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Landlord shall be entitled to exercise any or all remedies set forth in this Lease. This Lease shall be deemed to have been rejected and terminated unless the trustee or Tenant assumes this Lease within sixty (60) days after the filing of a proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or within such other time as maybe provided under the Code. Tenant acknowledges that in entering into this Lease, Landlord relied upon a determination that Tenant would be able to perform its obligations under this Lease. No election by a trustee or Tenant to assume this Lease shall be effective unless the trustee or Tenant cures, or gives adequate assurance of a prompt cure of any existing default, compensates or gives adequate assurance of compensation for any pecuniary loss incurred by Landlord arising out of any default of Tenant, and gives adequate assurance of future performance under this Lease, including but not limited to a reasonable Security Deposit as determined by Landlord. This Lease may be assigned by the trustee or Tenant only if Landlord acknowledges in writing that the assignee has provided adequate assurance of future performance of all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, including but not limited to the submission of satisfactory current, audited financial statements.

15

The rejection of this Lease by Tenant under the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. shall constitute a substantial default and breach of this Lease by Tenant. Upon the occurrence of any such event of material default and breach by Tenant, Landlord may terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant.

21.    ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

(A)      ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not assign this Lease in whole or in part or sublet all or any part of the Leased Premises, nor permit other persons to occupy the Leased Premises or any part thereof, nor grant any license or concession for all or any of the Leased Premises, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and unfettered discretion. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a lease application form completed and signed by prospective subtenant or assignee in the form provided by Landlord and other such financial information as Landlord may request. In the event Landlord approves Tenant’s request to sublet and Tenant sublets the Leased Premises for an amount greater than the amount Tenant is required to pay for said Leased Premises, then all Additional Rent shall accrue and be paid to Landlord. Any consent by Landlord to an assignment of this Lease or subletting shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity of such consent for subsequent assignment or subletting and shall not relieve Tenant or any guarantors of liability hereunder. An assignment for the benefit of Tenant’s creditors or otherwise by operation of law shall not be effective to transfer or assign Tenant’s interest under this Lease unless Landlord shall have first consented thereto in writing. Notwithstanding the above, it is understood and agreed that Tenant may assign this Lease without Landlord’s consent, at any time during the term of this Lease, to any parent corporation of Tenant or to the surviving corporation in connection with a merger or consolidation or a reorganization, provided however, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of any such assignment, and provided assignee accepts full responsibility and liability for all terms and obligations of this Lease.

(B)      CORPORATE CHANGE. If Tenant is a corporation and if at any time during the Initial Term of this Lease or any renewal or extension thereof, the shareholder or shareholders who own a majority of either the outstanding voting shares or all outstanding shares of capital stock of Tenant at the time of execution of this Lease cease to own a majority of such shares (except as the result of transfers by devise or descent), the loss of a majority of such shares shall be deemed to be an assignment of this Lease by Tenant and therefor subject in all respects to the provisions of this Paragraph. The previous sentence shall not apply, however, if at the time of the execution of this Lease the outstanding voting shares of capital stock are listed on a recognized securities exchange or over the counter market.

(C)      ADMINISTRATIVE FEE. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall not be obligated to entertain or consider any request by Tenant to consent to any proposed waiver, assignment of this Lease or sublet of all or any part of the Leased Premises unless each request by Tenant is accompanied by a nonrefundable fee payable to Landlord in the amount of Three Hundred Fifty Dollars ($350) to cover Landlord’s administrative costs and expenses incurred in processing each of Tenant’s requests. Furthermore, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon Landlord’s demand therefor, Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in the review of such documentation. Neither Tenant’s payment nor Landlord’s acceptance of the foregoing fee shall be construed to impose any obligation whatsoever upon Landlord to consent to Tenant’s request.

16

(A)      SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT. This Lease is and shall be subordinate to any mortgage now or hereafter placed on the Property, and to all advances already made or that may be made hereafter on account of any such mortgage, to the full extent of the principal sums secured thereby and interest thereon.

Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this Paragraph may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary or purchaser and Tenant shall be liable for all loss, cost or expense resulting from the failure of any sale or funding of any loan caused by any material misstatement contained in such Estoppel certificate. If Tenant fails to execute and deliver such certificate within such ten (10) day period, same shall be deemed a material default under this Lease and Landlord or Landlord’s beneficiary, agent or mortgagee may execute and deliver such Estoppel certificate on Tenant’s behalf, and that such Estoppel certificate shall be fully binding upon Tenant.

(C)      DEFAULT NOTICE. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant agrees that it has no legal right to terminate and will not terminate this Lease until Tenant has first given written notice to Landlord and to the holder of any mortgage specifying the nature of any such default by Landlord and allowing Landlord and such mortgage holder, or either of them, ninety (90) days after date of such notice to cure such default or a reasonable period of time in addition thereto if circumstances are such that said default cannot reasonably be cured within said ninety (90) day period.

(E)      LIMITATION ON SECURITY DEPOSIT. Tenant hereby agrees not to look to the mortgagee, as mortgagee, mortgagee in possession, or successor in title to the property, for accountability for any security deposit required by the Landlord hereunder, unless such sums have actually been received by said mortgagee as security for the Tenant’s performance of this Lease.

17

(F)      UPON TERMINATION.

Provided, further, that if Tenant fails or refuses to promptly execute and deliver to Landlord a Discharge Instrument, then Landlord may unilaterally execute and record a Discharge Instrument and, further, Tenant hereby appoints Landlord with a power of attorney, which power shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest, for the limited purpose of executing a Discharge Instrument on behalf of Tenant, and thereafter recording such Discharge Instrument in the public record.

23.    UTILITIES. Tenant shall have all utilities (except water service) transferred into its name as of the Lease Commencement Date. Tenant shall pay directly to local utility companies through the entire term of this Lease when due for the use of all utilities for the Leased Premises, including water, sewer, gas and electricity charges, and shall provide and pay for its own heating and air conditioning. If any utilities are not separately metered or assessed such as the water or are only partially separately metered or assessed and are used in common with other tenants of the building in which the Leased Premises are located, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a proportion of such utility charges based on square footage of floor space leased to each tenant using such common facilities, or such other reasonable measure of use as Landlord may obtain.

Tenant hereby irrevocably waives any right otherwise available under any law to redeem or reinstate this Lease or renegotiate this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession after this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession is terminated based on a default by Tenant.

GUARANTY

ATTACHED HERETO and made a part of Lease dated June 24, 2015, by and between Ann Arbor Commence Center, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company as Landlord, ZoMedica Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation as Tenant and GERALD SOLENSKY, individually as Guarantor(s) for Leased Premises commonly known as 3928 Varsity, City of Ann Arbor, County of Washtenaw, State of Michigan.

As an inducement to Landlord to lease the Leased Premises to Tenant, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and because the Guarantor(s) have determined that executing and delivering this Guaranty is in the Guarantor(s)’ best interest and to the financial benefit of the Guarantor(s), the Guarantor(s) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, jointly and severally, guarantee to Landlord, its successors and assigns, to pay all Base Rent and all Additional Rent and perform and execute all covenants on the part of Tenant under this Lease for the period of Initial Term, any future extensions thereof and any Hold-Over Rent. If any event of default occurs, Guarantor(s) shall pay to Landlord all amounts that may be due under this Lease, all damages that may occur including attorney fees and fully satisfy the conditions of this Lease without requiring notice or proof of demand being made. This is a primary and unconditional guaranty of payment (and not of collection) and performance. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may make demand directly upon Guarantor for the performance and payment of the above without making demand upon, or pursuing or exhausting any remedy, or instituting proceedings against Tenant, or against any security held by Landlord. No amendment, modification, extension or renewal of the foregoing Lease nor any extension of time for performance of any covenant therein contained, shall release the undersigned from liability hereunder. The obligations of the undersigned hereunder shall remain fully binding although Landlord may have waived one or more defaults by Tenant, extended the time of performance by Tenant, modified or amended this Lease, released, returned or misapplied other collateral given later as additional security (including other guaranties) or released Tenant from its performance of the obligations under this Lease. Guarantor hereby consents to the Landlord or the Landlord’s agent obtaining a periodic credit report on the undersigned as they deem necessary.

Guarantor further waives:

(A)  Any right of subrogation to the rights of Landlord against Tenant, until all sums due Landlord are paid in full;

(B)  Any set-offs or counterclaims against Landlord which would otherwise impair Landlord’s rights against Guarantor;
