Should Tenant fail to make any such repair or replacement that does not constitute a Capital Repair/Replacement or fail to maintain the Premises, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of such failure.  If Tenant fails to commence cure of such failure within 10 business days of Landlord’s notice, and thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion, Landlord may perform such work and shall be reimbursed by Tenant within 30 days after receipt of Landlord’s written demand therefor (together with copies of the paid invoices evidencing the costs incurred by Landlord); provided, however, that if such failure by Tenant creates or could create an emergency, Landlord may immediately commence cure of such failure and shall notify Tenant promptly after such action has been undertaken, and thereafter be entitled to recover the costs of such cure from Tenant as provided in this paragraph.  Subject to Sections 17 and 18, Tenant shall bear the full uninsured cost of any repair or replacement to any part of the Project that results from damage caused by Tenant or any Tenant Party and any repair that benefits only the Premises.  For the avoidance of doubt, a repair shall be deemed to benefit only the Premises (i) if an act or omission by Tenant or any Tenant Party causes or triggers the need for such repair (but only to the extent the cost of which repair is not covered by insurance), or (ii) if Tenant requests a repair that Landlord

is not otherwise obligated to perform under the terms of this Lease.  The cost of any such repair shall be excluded from the Operating Expenses if caused by any other tenant of the Building that is directly invoiced for such repair.

(b)Maintenance Contracts.  Tenant, at its expense, shall at all times during the Term maintain with qualified contractors maintenance and repair contracts (“Maintenance Contracts”) for (i) all HVAC systems serving all or any part of the Building, and (ii) the Emergency Generators.  The Maintenance Contracts shall be in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.  Landlord shall be a third party beneficiary of the Maintenance Contracts and, within 30 days after Landlord’s request, Tenant shall deliver a copy of the Maintenance Contracts to Landlord.

38.Signs; Exterior Appearance. Except as provided in this Section 38, Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed:  (i) attach any awnings, exterior lights, decorations, balloons, flags, pennants, banners, painting or other projection to any outside wall of the Project, (ii) use any curtains, blinds, shades or screens other than Landlord’s standard window coverings as specified in the Basis of Design Report (as defined in Exhibit C-1 attached hereto), (iii) coat or otherwise sunscreen the interior or exterior of any windows, (iv) place any bottles, parcels, or other articles on the window sills, (v) place any equipment, furniture or other items of personal property on any exterior balcony, or (vi) paint, affix or exhibit on any part of the Building or the Project any signs, notices, window or door lettering, placards, decorations, or advertising media of any type that can be viewed from the exterior of the Building. Subject to the limitation in subparagraph (vi) of the immediately preceding sentence, Tenant may install signs, notices, window or door lettering, placards, decorations, or advertising media of any type in the main lobby and all other interior locations of the Building without Landlord’s consent.  The Building directory tablet shall be provided exclusively for the display of the name and location of Tenant.

(a)Identification Signage.  Tenant shall have the right, at its sole option, cost, and expense and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, to install and affix to the exterior of the Building not more than 2 mounted, illuminated signs as desired by Tenant and permitted by applicable Legal Requirements (and related electrical connections and equipment) bearing the then-current name and the corporate logo of Tenant or any assignee of this Lease or sublessee of all or any portion of the Premises pursuant to a Permitted Transfer (“Identification Signage”).

Such right shall be personal to RegenXBio Inc. and any assignee of this Lease or sublessee of all or any portion of the Premises pursuant to a Permitted Transfer.  Landlord shall have the right to approve the placement on the wall, size, and design of the Identification Signage, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned.  Landlord hereby approves the location of the Identification Signage set forth on Exhibit G attached hereto.  Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain the Identification Signage in good order and repair consistent with the Maintenance Standard and have the right to replace, renovate, and/or update the Identification Signage from time to time, subject to Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned.  On the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, (i) remove the Identification Signage in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, and (ii) repair any damage to the façade or appearance of the Building caused by installation, replacement, renovation, updating and/or removal of the Identification Signage. Except as provided in this sentence, Tenant’s rights under this paragraph are exclusive and the percentage of the total identification signage occupied by Tenant’s name on the exterior of the Building shall be 100%; provided, however, that Landlord reserves the right to place its name and identifying logo on the exterior of the Building in a location that does not reasonably detract from Tenant’s signage rights under this paragraph.

(b)Monument Signage.  Landlord shall, in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, install (before the Rent Commencement Date) and thereafter throughout the Term, maintain in good condition and repair, as part of the Operating Expenses, Tenant’s name on the monument sign serving the Building.  Landlord shall have the right to approve the placement on such monument sign, size, and design of such signage, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned.  Except as provided in this sentence, Tenant’s rights under this paragraph to have signage on such monument sign are exclusive, it being understood and agreed that Landlord has not heretofore granted or may not hereafter grant rights to signage on such monument sign to any other person or entity, and the area occupied by Tenant’s name on such monument sign shall not exceed Tenant’s proportionate share of the monument (which share shall be equal to Tenant’s Share (100%) as to any monument sign serving the Building and Tenant’s Project Share as to any monument sign serving the Project) provided, however, that Landlord reserves the right to place its name and identifying logo toward the bottom of any such monument sign.

(c)Plaque Signage.  Plaque signage will be located adjacent to the main entrance to the Building.  Landlord shall install, before the Rent Commencement Date, and thereafter throughout the Term, maintain in good condition and repair, as part of the Operating Expenses, Tenant’s

18.Section 39 (Right of First Negotiation).  Section 39 of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting that Section in its entirety and replacing it with the following:  “Intentionally Deleted.”

 

19.Amendment to Section 40 (Right to Expand in the Building or Project).  Section 40 of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting that Section in its entirety and replacing it with the following new Section 40:

 

40.Right to Expand in the Project.

(a)Expansion in the Project.  Tenant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to expand the Premises (“Project Expansion Right”) to include any Project Expansion Space (as defined below) in the Project upon the terms and conditions in this Section.  For purposes of this Section, “Project Expansion Space” means any space in the Project containing at least 50,000 rentable square feet of contiguous space in Building B that is not occupied by a tenant or that is occupied by an existing tenant whose lease is expiring within 6 months or less and such tenant does not wish to renew (whether or not such tenant has a right to renew) its occupancy of such space.  Landlord shall, when the availability of the Project Expansion Space becomes known (but not earlier than 180 days before such availability), deliver to Tenant written notice (“Project Expansion Notice”) of the Project Expansion Space.  The Project Expansion Notice shall set forth the terms and conditions on which Landlord is prepared to lease the Project Expansion Space.  The rental terms for the Project Expansion Space shall be the fair market rent, including market concessions (collectively, “Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions”) as mutually determined by Landlord and Tenant, and the Project Expansion Notice shall set forth Landlord’s proposed Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions.  Tenant shall respond to the Project Expansion Notice within 10 business days after receipt thereof, which response shall state that Tenant (1) declines to lease the Project Expansion Space, (2) agrees to lease the Project Expansion Space on the terms set forth in the Project Expansion Notice (including the Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions), in which event Landlord and Tenant shall within a period of 15 days thereafter execute and deliver an amendment to this Lease or a lease agreement for the Project Expansion Space, or (3) desires to lease the Project Expansion Space but in good faith disagrees with the proposed Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions, in which event Landlord and Tenant shall, for a period of up to 15 days, negotiate in good faith for Tenant’s lease of the Project Expansion Space on mutually acceptable Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions.  If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the Project

Expansion Space FMR/Concessions within such 15 day period after negotiating in good faith, the parties shall proceed to arbitration as set forth below.

 

i.

Project Expansion Space FMR/Concession Proposal.  Within 10 days after the expiration of such 15 day period, each party shall deliver to the other a proposal containing the Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions that the submitting party believes to be correct (“Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions Proposal”).  If either party fails to timely submit a Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions Proposal, and such failure is not remedied within 3 business days after written notice thereof to such party, the other party’s submitted Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions Proposal shall be deemed the Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions.  If both parties submit Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions Proposals, then Landlord and Tenant shall meet within 7 days after delivery of the last Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions Proposal and make a good faith attempt to mutually appoint a single Arbitrator to determine the Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions.  If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon a single Arbitrator, then each shall, by written notice delivered to the other within 10 days after the meeting, select an Arbitrator.  If either party fails to timely give notice of its selection for an Arbitrator, and such failure is not remedied within 3 business days after written notice thereof to such party, the other party’s submitted Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions Proposal shall be deemed the Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions.  The 2 Arbitrators so appointed shall, within 5 business days after their appointment, appoint a third Arbitrator.  If the 2 Arbitrators so selected cannot agree on the selection of the third Arbitrator within the time above specified, then either party, on behalf of both parties, may request such appointment of such third Arbitrator by application to any state court of general jurisdiction in the jurisdiction in which the Premises are located, upon 10 days prior written notice to the other party of such intent.

 

ii.

Decision.  The decision of the Arbitrator(s) shall be made within 30 days after the appointment of a single Arbitrator or the third Arbitrator, as applicable.  The decision of the Arbitrator(s) shall be limited solely as to which of the Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions Proposals submitted by the parties is closest to the actual Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions in such Arbitrator(s)’ good faith professional judgment.  The decision of the single Arbitrator, or the majority or unanimity of the 3 Arbitrator panel, as applicable, shall be final and binding upon the parties.  Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator appointed by or on behalf of such party (if applicable) and the fees and expenses of the agreed-upon single Arbitrator or the third Arbitrator, as applicable, shall be borne equally by both parties.  Landlord and Tenant shall then execute and deliver a mutually acceptable amendment or a lease agreement recognizing the Project Expansion Space FMR/Concessions, along with

the other terms set forth in the Project Expansion Notice, for the Project Expansion Space.

Provided that no right to expand is exercised by any tenant with superior rights (as set forth in Exhibit I) and more than 3 years remain on the Term, Tenant shall be entitled to lease the Project Expansion Space upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 40(a).

b.Amended Lease.  If Tenant fails to deliver notice responding to a Project Expansion Notice as provided herein within 10 business days following such tender, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its right to lease the Project Expansion Space described in such Project Expansion Notice.  Landlord and Tenant shall execute and deliver a lease amendment or lease agreement for the Project Expansion Space within the 30 day period from the date Tenant gives notice accepting Landlord’s offer to lease the Project Expansion Space.  Both Landlord and Tenant shall exercise diligence to ensure that such lease amendment or lease agreement is timely executed and delivered.

c.Exceptions.  Notwithstanding the above, the Project Expansion Right shall not be in effect and may not be exercised by Tenant:  (i) during any period of time that Tenant is in Default under any provision of this Lease; or (ii) if Tenant has been in Default under any provision of this Lease 3 or more times, regardless of whether the Defaults are cured, during the 12 month period prior to the date on which Tenant seeks to exercise the Project Expansion Right.

d.Termination.  The Project Expansion Right shall terminate and be of no further force or effect even after Tenant’s due and timely exercise of the Project Expansion Right, if, after such exercise, but prior to the commencement date of the lease of the Project Expansion Space, (i) Tenant is in Default under any provision of this Lease; or (ii) Tenant has Defaulted 3 or more times during the period from the date of the exercise of the Project Expansion Right to the date of the commencement of the lease of the Project Expansion Space, regardless of whether such Defaults are cured.

e.Subordinate.  Tenant’s rights in connection with the Project Expansion Right are and shall be subject to and subordinate to any expansion or extension rights granted in the Project as set forth in Exhibit I.

f.Right Personal.  The Project Expansion Right is personal to RegenXBio Inc. and is not assignable without Landlord’s consent, which may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion separate and apart from any consent by Landlord to an assignment of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, except that it shall automatically be assigned without Landlord’s

consent in connection with any assignment of this Lease that is a Permitted Transfer.

g.No Extensions.  The period of time within which any Project Expansion Right may be exercised shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenant’s inability to exercise the Project Expansion Right.

20.Amendment to Section 41 (Hold Space Option).  Section 41 of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting that Section in its entirety and replacing it with the following:  “Intentionally Deleted.”

 

21.Amendment to Section 46 (Roof Equipment). Section 46 of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting that Section in its entirety and replacing it with the following new Section 46:

 

46.Roof Equipment. As long as Tenant is not in Default, Tenant shall have the right at its sole cost and expense, subject to compliance with all Legal Requirements, to install on the roof of the Building (in all space on the roof other than such space as is required by Landlord for (i) perimeter setbacks mandated by any Governmental Authority, (ii) Building HVAC systems, and (iii) solar panels installed by Landlord but thereafter maintained, repaired, and replaced by Tenant, such permitted space and such restricted space as further depicted on Exhibit J attached hereto; any notations of limitation on use depicted on Exhibit J shall, in all cases, be determined by applicable Legal Requirements), and throughout the Term, operate, maintain, repair, replace, and remove, (1) one or more satellite dishes, communication antennae, or other communications equipment (all of which having a diameter and height reasonably acceptable to Landlord) for the transmission or reception of communication of signals as Tenant may from time to time desire, and (2) equipment for any supplemental HVAC systems installed by or on behalf of Tenant and providing service to the Premises, as may be approved by Landlord as part of the Tenant Improvements or any subsequent Alterations (collectively, the “Roof Equipment”), on the following terms and conditions:

(a)Requirements.  Tenant shall submit to Landlord (i) the plans and specifications for the installation of the Roof Equipment (which may be part of the plans and specifications for the Tenant Improvements or any subsequent Alterations), (ii) copies of all required governmental and quasi-governmental permits, licenses, and authorizations that Tenant will and must obtain at its own expense, with the cooperation of Landlord, if necessary for the installation and operation of the Roof Equipment, and (iii) an insurance policy or certificate of insurance evidencing insurance coverage as required by this Lease and any other insurance as reasonably required by Landlord for the installation and operation of the Roof Equipment, which such other insurance shall be consistent with that typically required by landlords of comparable buildings in the vicinity of the Project.  Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval for

the installation and operation of the Roof Equipment; provided, however, that Landlord may reasonably withhold its approval if the installation or operation of the Roof Equipment (A) is reasonably likely to damage the structural integrity of the Building, (B) is reasonably likely to void, terminate, or invalidate any applicable roof warranty, (C) is reasonably likely to interfere with any service provided by Landlord, (D) is not reasonably screened from viewing from the ground level adjacent to the Building.  

(1)Removal—Pre-Rent Commencement Date.  Tenant shall not be required to remove all or any part of the Roof Equipment on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease if the Roof Equipment has been installed on the roof of the Building (or intended to be installed per the final approved plans) on or before the Rent Commencement Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Lease.

(2)Removal—Post-Rent Commencement Date.  With respect to any Roof Equipment that Tenant desires to install on the roof of the Building from and after the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall not be required to remove all or any part of such Roof Equipment on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease unless, at the time of Landlord’s approval, Landlord requires that Tenant remove all or any part of the Roof Equipment on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease because such Roof Equipment is, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, (A) uniquely specific to Tenant’s use and operation of the Building and (B) unlikely to be of use or utility to another tenant of the Building.

(b)No Damage to Roof.  If installation of the Roof Equipment requires Tenant to make any roof cuts or perform any other roofing work, such cuts shall only be made in the manner reasonably designated in writing by Landlord; and any such installation work (including any roof cuts or other roofing work) shall be performed by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense by a roofing contractor designated by Landlord and reasonably acceptable to Tenant.  If Tenant or its agents shall otherwise cause any damage to the roof during the installation, operation, and removal of the Roof Equipment such damage shall be repaired promptly at Tenant’s expense and the roof shall be restored to the same condition it was in before the damage, reasonable wear and tear excepted.  Landlord shall not charge Tenant Additional Rent for the installation and use of the Roof Equipment.  If, however, Landlord’s insurance premium or Tax assessment increases solely as a result of the Roof Equipment, Tenant shall pay such increase as Additional Rent within 30 days after receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice from Landlord.  Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction in the amount of Rent payable under this Lease if for any reason Tenant is unable to use the Roof Equipment.  In no event whatsoever shall the installation, operation, maintenance, or removal of the

Roof Equipment by Tenant or its agents void, terminate, or invalidate any applicable roof warranty.

(c)Protection.  The installation, operation, maintenance, and removal of the Roof Equipment shall be at Tenant’s sole risk.  Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of every kind and description that may arise out of or be connected in any way with Tenant’s installation, operation, maintenance, or removal of the Roof Equipment, except to the extent caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Landlord or its employees.

(d)Removal.  Subject to the provisions of Section 46(a) above, at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or the permanent discontinuance of the use of the Roof Equipment by Tenant, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, remove the Roof Equipment from the roof of the Building, in which event Tenant shall leave the portion of the roof where the Roof Equipment was located in the same condition it was in before the installation thereof, reasonable wear and tear excepted.  If Tenant does not so remove the Roof Equipment, Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to remove and dispose of the Roof Equipment and charge Tenant as Additional Rent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such removal and disposal. Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for any Roof Equipment disposed of or removed by Landlord.

(e)No Interference.  The Roof Equipment shall not interfere (other than in a de minimus manner) with the proper functioning of any telecommunications equipment or devices that have been installed or will be installed by Landlord.  Tenant agrees that Landlord will be permitted to install such telecommunication equipment that is of a type and frequency that will not interfere (other than in a de minimus manner) with the Roof Equipment.

(f)Intentionally Omitted

(g)Access.  The right of Tenant to install, operate, maintain, repair, replace, and remove the Roof Equipment shall be personal solely to RegenXBio Inc. and its permitted assignees and subtenants, and (i) no other person or entity shall have any right to use or operate the Roof Equipment, and (ii) Tenant shall not assign, convey, or otherwise transfer to any person or entity any right, title, or interest in all or any portion of the Roof Equipment or the use and operation thereof, except that the right of Tenant to install, operate, maintain, repair, replace, and remove the Roof Equipment shall be automatically assigned without Landlord’s consent in connection with any assignment of this Lease that is a Permitted Transfer.

23.Amendment to Exhibit C-1 (Landlord Work Letter)—Amendment to Section 3.c. (Warranties).  Exhibit C-1 of the Lease is hereby amended by adding the following language at the end of Section 3.c.:

 

If Tenant is not an express third party beneficiary of the General Contractor’s warranty or any such equipment manufacturer’s warranty, Landlord shall assign to Tenant, on a non-exclusive basis and only to the extent Tenant has responsibility under the Lease for the maintenance, repair, or replacement of the component or item that is the subject of such warranty, such General Contractor’s warranty and any such equipment manufacturer’s warranty.  If any such warranty is not assignable, Tenant shall request in writing that Landlord pursue a warranty claim if and when Tenant has a reasonable and good faith basis for asserting such a claim.  If so requested, Landlord shall promptly pursue such warranty claim at no cost or expense to Tenant.  For the avoidance of doubt, any warranty affecting the roof shall not be assigned to Tenant.

 

24.Adjustment to TI Allowance.  Exhibit C-2 of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting Section 5(b) thereof in its entirety and replacing it with the following new Section 5(b):
