Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 21, 2024, Tivic Health Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Sublease Termination Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) with Czarnowski Display Service, Inc. (“CDS”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to terminate that certain Sublease Agreement, by and between the Company and CDS, dated as of November 17, 2021 (the “Sublease”), effective as of May 31, 2024 (the “Termination Date”). The Termination Agreement became effective on May 24, 2024, upon receipt of the master landlord’s written consent to the termination of the Sublease and CDS’ entry into a new sublease agreement with a new sublessee.
Under the Sublease, the Company leases approximately 9,091 square feet of office space located at 25821 Industrial Boulevard, Suite 100, Hayward, California (the “Premises”), which serves as the Company's principal place of business. The Sublease was previously scheduled to terminate, in accordance with its terms, on October 31, 2025, unless sooner terminated or cancelled in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Sublease. As of the Termination Date, the Company shall have no further subleasehold or other right, title, or interest in the Premises. In exchange for the early termination of the Sublease pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the Company agreed to make a one-time termination payment to CDS in the amount of $44,480.44. Additionally, in connection with the Sublease, the Company shall pay (i) all commissions owned to any broker in connection with the sublease of the Premises by CDS to the new sublessee, and (ii) any fees or expenses charged by the owner of the Premises in connection with its review of the new sublease agreement with the new sublessee.
The Company expects that the termination of the Sublease will result in a reduction of approximately $200,000 in lease expense over the next year and a half.
The foregoing summary of the Termination Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the complete text of the Sublease Termination Agreement, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this "Current Report") as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Company is currently considering options for the lease of a new premises and principal place of business.
Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
The information set forth in Item 1.01 with respect to the Termination Agreement is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.02.
