Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 2, 2007, Discovery Laboratories, Inc. (the “Company”) and TR Stone Manor Corp., (“Landlord”), entered into a First Amendment to Lease Agreement (“Amendment”) with respect to the Lease Agreement and Addendum to Lease Agreement dated May 26, 2004 (the “Lease”). The Lease relates to the Company’s headquarters located at Stone Manor Corporate Center, 2600 Kelly Road, Warrington, PA 18976.

Under the terms of the Amendment: (i) the term of the Lease was extended by three years to February 2013; (ii) the Landlord consented to the Company’s construction of analytical laboratory space within the existing premises and agreed to make a contribution to tenant improvements in the amount of approximately $400,000; (iii) the Company, subject to existing tenants’ rights, was granted a right of first offer on space coming available in any building owned or controlled by the Landlord within the Stone Manor Corporate Center complex; (iv) the Company’s option to extend the Lease was adjusted to an additional period of three years; and (v) the Company relinquished an early termination right. The total aggregate base rental payments under the Lease prior to the extension were approximately $4. 6 million and the total aggregate base rental payments under the extended portion of the Lease are approximately $3.0 million.

The foregoing description of the Lease and the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Lease and the Amendment, copies of which are filed as exhibits to this report and incorporated herein by reference. The agreements have been filed in order to provide investors and the Company’s stockholders with information regarding their terms and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Pursuant to the Lease and Amendment, each of the Company and the Landlord made certain representations, warranties and covenants and agreed to indemnify each other for certain losses arising out of breaches of such representations, warranties, covenants and other specified matters. The representations, warranties and covenants were made by the parties to and solely for the benefit of each other and any expressly intended third party beneficiaries in the context of all of the terms and conditions of the agreements and in the context of the specific relationship between the parties. Accordingly, investors and stockholders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants. Furthermore, investors and stockholders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants as characterizations of the actual state of facts or continuing intentions of the parties, since they were only made as of the date of the agreements. Information concerning the subject matter of such representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the agreements, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s reports or other filings with the SEC.
