B.Landlord and Tenant desire, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, to amend the Lease to, among other things, expand the Permitted Use and the size of the Original Premises by adding certain premises on the ground floor of the Building containing approximately 15,116 rentable square feet.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals, which are incorporated herein by this reference, the mutual promises and conditions contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:

“Permitted Use: Research and development laboratory, GMP manufacturing, related office and other related uses consistent with the character of the Project, including, without limitation, mRNA development, toxicology lab, and QC lab, or otherwise in compliance with the provisions of Section 7 hereof.”

In addition to the Original Premises, commencing on the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date (as defined in Section 3 below), Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant leases from Landlord, that certain portion of the ground floor of the Building containing approximately 15,116 rentable square feet, as more particularly shown on Exhibit A attached hereto as the Expansion Premises (the “First Expansion Premises”).

Delivery. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to deliver (“Delivery” or “Deliver”) the First Expansion Premises to Tenant 1 business day after the mutual execution and delivery of this First Amendment for the construction by Tenant of the Tenant Improvements. The “First Expansion Premises Commencement Date” shall be the date that Landlord Delivers the First Expansion Premises to Tenant. The “First Expansion Premises Rent Commencement Date” shall be the earlier to occur of (i) the date that the Tenant Improvements are Substantially Completed or (ii) February 28, 2021; provided, however, that in no event shall the First Expansion Premises Rent Commencement Date occur prior to January 1, 2021. As used herein, the terms “Tenant Improvements” and “Substantially Completed” shall have the meanings set forth for such terms in the work letter attached to this First Amendment as Exhibit B (“First Expansion Premises Work Letter”).

Any changes requested by Tenant to the Tenant Improvements after the delivery and approval by Landlord of the TI Design Drawings, shall be requested and instituted in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 and shall be subject to the written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(a)Tenant’s Right to Request Changes.

Such Change Request must be signed by Tenant’s Representative. Landlord shall review and approve or disapprove such Change Request within 5 business days thereafter, provided that Landlord’s approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If Landlord fails to respond within such 5 business day period, then Tenant may provide Landlord with a second written notice stating in bold and all caps 12 point font that Landlord’s failure to respond to Tenant’s Change Request within 3 business days after Landlord’s receipt of the second notice shall be deemed approval by Landlord, and if Landlord does not respond within such 3 business day period, then Landlord shall be deemed to have approved such Change Request.

(b)Implementation of Changes. If Landlord approves such Change, Tenant may cause the approved Change to be instituted. If any TI Permit modification or change is required as a result of such Change, Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with a copy of such TI Permit modification or change.

(a)Budget For Tenant Improvements. Before the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall obtain a detailed breakdown, by trade, of the costs incurred or that will be incurred, in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements (the “Budget”), and deliver a copy of the Budget to Landlord for Landlord’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Budget shall be based upon the TI Construction Drawings approved by Landlord. The Budget shall include a payment to Landlord of administrative rent (“Administrative Rent”) equal to 1% of the TI Costs (as hereinafter defined) for monitoring and inspecting the construction of the Tenant Improvements, which sum shall be payable from the TI Fund.

(b)TI Allowance. Landlord shall provide to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance (the “TI Allowance”) of $34.00 per rentable square foot of the First Expansion Premises (and if Tenant leases the ROFO Premises pursuant to Section 13 of the First Amendment, the ROFO Premises) which is included in the Base Rent set forth in Section 5(b) of the First Amendment. The TI Allowance shall be disbursed in accordance with this First Expansion Premises Work Letter.

Landlord shall, upon receipt of reasonably satisfactory invoices, reimburse Tenant for the payment made by Tenant for an initial test fit and one revision, not to exceed $0.15 per rentable square foot of the First Expansion Premises (and if Tenant leases the ROFO Premises pursuant to Section 13 of the First Amendment, the ROFO Premises).

Tenant shall have no right to the use or benefit (including any reduction to or payment of Base Rent) of any portion of the TI Allowance not required for the construction of (i) the Tenant Improvements described in the TI Construction Drawings approved pursuant to Section 2(d) or (ii) any Changes pursuant to Section 4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to use any unused portion of the TI Allowance for Alterations of a fixed and permanent nature reasonably acceptable to Landlord in any portion of the Premises (or any other premises leased by Tenant from Landlord at the Building). Tenant shall have no right to any portion of the TI Allowance that is not disbursed before the December 31, 2021.

(c)Costs Includable in TI Fund. The TI Fund shall be used solely for the payment of design, permits and construction costs in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements, including, without limitation, the cost of electrical power and other utilities used in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements, the cost of preparing the TI Design Drawings and the TI Construction Drawings, all costs set forth in the Budget, including Landlord’s Administrative Rent, and the cost of Changes (collectively, “TI Costs”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the TI Fund shall not be used to purchase any furniture, personal property or other non-Building system materials or equipment, including, but not be limited to, non-ducted biological safety cabinets and other scientific equipment not incorporated into the Tenant Improvements; provided, however that Tenant may use a portion of the TI Allowance for Tenant’s voice or data cabling.

(d)Excess TI Costs. Landlord shall have no obligation to bear any portion of the cost of any of the Tenant Improvements, subject to the terms of Section 5(d), except to the extent of the TI Allowance. If at any time and from time-to-time, the remaining TI Costs under the Budget exceed the remaining unexpended TI Allowance (“Excess TI Costs”), monthly disbursements of the TI Allowance shall be made in the proportion that the remaining TI Allowance bears to the outstanding TI Costs under the Budget, and Tenant shall fund the balance of each such monthly draw. For purposes of any litigation instituted with regard to such amounts, those amounts required to be paid by Tenant will be deemed Rent under the Lease. The TI Allowance and Excess TI Costs are herein referred to as the “TI Fund.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5(d), Tenant shall be fully and solely liable for TI Costs and the cost of Minor Variations in excess of the TI Allowance.

(e)Payment for TI Costs. During the course of design and construction of the Tenant Improvements, subject to the terms of Section 5(d), Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for TI Costs once a month against a draw request in Landlord’s standard form, containing evidence of payment of such TI Costs by Tenant and such certifications, lien waivers (including a conditional lien release for each progress payment and unconditional lien releases for the prior month’s progress payments), inspection reports and other matters as Landlord customarily obtains, to the extent of Landlord’s approval thereof for payment, no later than 30 days following receipt of such draw request. Upon completion of the Tenant Improvements (and prior to any final disbursement of the TI Fund), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord: (i) sworn statements setting forth the names of all contractors and first tier subcontractors who did the work and final, unconditional lien waivers from all such contractors and first tier subcontractors; (ii) as-built plans (one copy in print format and two copies in electronic CAD format) for such Tenant Improvements; (iii) a certification of substantial completion in Form AIA G704, (iv) a certificate of occupancy for the First Expansion Premises (and if Tenant leases the ROFO Premises pursuant to Section 13 of the First Amendment, the ROFO Premises); and (v) copies of all operation and maintenance manuals and warranties affecting the First Expansion Premises (and if Tenant leases the ROFO Premises pursuant to Section 13 of the First Amendment, the ROFO Premises).

(a)Consents. Whenever consent or approval of either party is required under this First Expansion Premises Work Letter, that party shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay such consent or approval, unless expressly set forth herein to the contrary.

(b)Modification. No modification, waiver or amendment of this First Expansion Premises Work Letter or of any of its conditions or provisions shall be binding upon Landlord or Tenant unless in writing signed by Landlord and Tenant.
