This SEVENTH AMENDMENT TO LEASE (this “Seventh Amendment”) is dated as of June 20, 2014, and entered into by and between ACCURAY INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), and DWF III CARIBBEAN, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), with reference to the following facts:

 

A.                                    Landlord (as successor to I & G Caribbean, Inc.) and Tenant are current parties to the following lease documents for the current lease by Tenant of approximately 73,938 square feet of rentable space in the Building at 1310-1314 Chesapeake Terrace, Sunnyvale, California (the “1310 Premises”) and approximately 39,678 rentable square feet of space at 1320 Chesapeake Terrace, Sunnyvale, California (the “1320 Premises”), for a total of 113,616 rentable square feet:

 

1. Industrial Complex Lease dated July 9, 2003 (the “Original Lease”) made by MP Caribbean, Inc., as landlord, and Tenant;

B.                                    The Original Lease, as amended by the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Third Amendment, the Fourth Amendment, the Fifth Amendment and the Sixth Amendment, shall be referred to as the “Lease.”  The 1310 Premises and the 1320 Premises together shall mean the “Demised Premises.”  The Lease term for the 1315 Premises (as defined in the Sixth Amendment) previously expired and Tenant vacated and surrendered possession of

the 1315 Premises.  Therefore, all references in the Lease, as amended by this Seventh Amendment, to the “Demised Premises” exclude the 1315 Premises.

 

C.                                    The current Lease term is scheduled to expire May 31, 2015.  Tenant and Landlord desire to amend the Lease to extend the Lease term, provide for the minimum guaranteed rental during such extended term and to make certain other changes to the Lease, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.                                      Extension.  The Lease term is extended for a period of eight (8) years and seven (7) months commencing on June 1, 2015 and expiring on December 31, 2023 (the “New Expiration Date”),  upon the same terms and conditions set forth in the Lease, except as amended and set forth in this Seventh Amendment. The period of time commencing on June 1, 2015 and expiring on the New Expiration Date may be referred to in this Seventh Amendment as the “Seventh Amendment Extended Term.”  Any allowances, free rent or concessions provided by Landlord, or work of alteration or improvement performed by Landlord, in connection with the Lease as in effect prior to this Seventh Amendment shall not apply to the Seventh Amendment Extended Term; and Tenant instead shall receive the Abated Base Rent Amount for the Abatement Period (as both terms are defined in Section 2 below) and the New Allowance, as defined in the Work Letter attached to this Seventh Amendment as Exhibit A (the “Work Letter”).  Tenant acknowledges and agrees that it does not have any option or right to extend or renew the Lease term beyond the New Expiration Date, except as provided in Section 6 below, and that any option or right to extend or renew the Lease term in the Lease is no longer applicable.  All references to the “Lease term” in the Lease shall mean the Lease term as extended by this Seventh Amendment.

Prior to June 1, 2015 Tenant shall continue to pay all minimum guaranteed rental as called for by the Sixth Amendment; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of the minimum guaranteed rental for the seven (7) months of June through December of 2014 (the “Abatement Period”) in the total amount of the $1,158,883.20 (the “Abated Base Rent Amount”).  If Tenant has already paid minimum guaranteed rentals for June of 2014, then Landlord shall refund the amount paid by Tenant for minimum guaranteed rental for June of 2014 within thirty (30) days after execution of this Seventh Amendment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Tenant shall not be entitled to receive the Abated Base Rent Amount during the continuance of an uncured default (after notice and the expiration of the applicable cure period) under the Lease, as amended hereby, provided that Tenant’s right to receive such Abated Base Rent Amount shall resume when and if such default is cured (and the Abatement Period shall be extended correspondingly) and Tenant shall be entitled to a credit in the amount of the then remaining and unapplied portion of the Abated Base Rent Amount, including the portion of the Abated Base Rent Amount not applied during any period of such default, against the next installment(s) of minimum guaranteed rental payable until such time as Tenant has been credited with the full amount of such unapplied Abated Base Rent Amount.  Only minimum guaranteed rental shall be abated pursuant to this paragraph.  All additional rent and other costs and charges specified in the Lease, as amended hereby, shall remain due and payable pursuant to the provisions of the Lease, as amended hereby.  If under the Lease, Tenant is granted rent abatement (such as by way of example only, due to a casualty as provided in Article 17 of the Original Lease), the Abatement Period shall be extended for the period separate and apart from that allowed under this paragraph , if such separate abatement right becomes applicable.

 

Landlord reserves the right in its sole and absolute discretion to cancel Tenant’s right to all or any portion of the unused Abated Base Rent Amount upon written notice to Tenant prior to the date Tenant has used or applied all of the Abated Base Rent Amount, provided that within ten (10) days after delivery of such notice, Landlord pays to Tenant the exact same amount of the Abated Base Rent Amount that Landlord elects to cancel (the “Abatement Cancellation Payment”).  Landlord may only cancel all or any portion of the unused Abated Base Rent Amount existing as of the date of Landlord’s notice to cancel the Abated Base Rent Amount.

 

3.                                      Additional Rent.  Tenant shall continue to pay all additional rent and other charges and sums required under the Lease, as amended by this Seventh Amendment, including without limitation, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of real estate charges, insurance expenses and Common Area Charges, for the Lease term, as extended by the Seventh Amendment Extension Term.

 

4.                                      Condition of Premises.  Tenant acknowledges and agrees that possession of the Demised Premises by Tenant during the Seventh Amendment Extended Term is a continuation of Tenant’s possession under the Lease, as amended hereby.  Tenant is familiar with the

 

3



 

condition of the 1310 Premises and 1320 Premises and agrees to continue to lease such Demised Premises during the Seventh Amendment Extended Term in its existing condition, “AS IS,” without any obligation of Landlord to provide Tenant with any construction or refurbishing allowance whatsoever or to remodel, improve or alter the Demised Premises, or to perform any other construction or other work of improvements upon the Demised Premises, except for any repair and maintenance obligations that may be required of the Landlord by the terms of the Lease, as amended by this Seventh Amendment (including, without limitation, Landlord’s obligation to replace HVAC units under Section 7.3 below), and except for the New Allowance.

 

5.                                      Early Termination. Tenant shall have a one-time right to terminate the Seventh Amendment Extended Term of the Lease, as extended by this Seventh Amendment, for the just the 1320 Premises, but not the 1310 Premises, (the “1320 Termination Right”) effective as of May 31, 2020 (the “Early Termination Date”) by providing unconditional and irrevocable written notice to Landlord no earlier than January 1, 2019 or later than June 1, 2019 (the “Early Termination Notice”); provided that (i) Tenant pays to Landlord the Early Termination Payment (hereinafter defined) by the Early Termination Date, (ii) Tenant complies with the other terms and conditions set forth herein, and (iii) no uncured default by Tenant under the Lease, as amended by this Seventh Amendment, exists beyond any applicable notice and cure period as of the date Tenant elects to exercise the Termination Right, or as of the Early Termination Date unless this condition for the early termination is waived in writing by Landlord.  The “Early Termination Payment” means the amount of the proportionate share of the unamortized Leasing Costs (hereinafter defined) as of the Early Termination Date.  The proportionate share for purposes of this Section shall mean 34.92% based on the ratio that the rentable square footage of 1320 Premises (i.e., 39,678 rentable square feet) bears to the total rentable square footage of the Demised Premises (i.e., 113,616) as of the date of this Seventh Amendment.  The Leasing Costs shall be amortized over the period of June 1, 2015 to December 31, 2023 on a monthly straight-line basis together with interest at eight percent (8%) per annum.  Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s Early Termination Notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant of the amount of the Early Termination Payment.  The term “Leasing Costs” means all of the following costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with this Seventh Amendment:  (a) the amount of the “New Allowance” as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto; (b) all leasing brokerage commissions paid by Landlord in connection with this Seventh Amendment; and (c) the amount of the Abated Base Rent Amount or amount of the Abatement Cancellation Payment if made by Landlord.  If the Abatement Cancellation Payment is less than the original full amount of the Abated Base Rent Amount, then the amount of Leasing Costs under clause (c) above shall be the amount of the Abated Base Rent Amount used plus the amount of the Abatement Cancellation Payment.  Landlord grants the 1320 Termination Right contained herein to Tenant in consideration of Tenant’s strict compliance with the provisions of this Section 5, including, without limitation, the manner of exercise of the 1320 Termination Right.  Tenant’s 1320 Termination Right is personal to Accuray Incorporated, the original party signing this Seventh Amendment as Tenant, and any Permitted Transferee and may not be transferred or assigned to or exercised by any other party.  If Tenant or a Permitted Transferee properly exercises the 1320 Termination Right and complies with the foregoing requirements for such early termination of the Seventh Amendment Extended Term for the 1320 Premises, the parties shall enter into an amendment of the Lease, as amended by this Seventh Amendment, to cover the following

 

4



 

changes: (i) the removal of the space at the 1320 Premises from the Demised Premises; and (ii) a reduction in the monthly minimum guaranteed rental by 34.92% (i.e., a reduction based on the ratio of the rentable square footage of the 1320 Premises [39,678] bears to the total rentable square footage of the Demised Premises [113,616] prior to such early termination); and (iii) a reduction in Tenant’s Proportionate Share; and (iv) such other changes as may be necessary to reflect the surrender of possession of the 1320 Premises.

 

6.                                      Options to Renew.  The first paragraph of Section 6 of the Sixth Amendment, entitled “Options to Renew” is replaced with the following to provide Tenant with two five (5) year options to renew the Lease term upon expiration of the Seventh Amendment Extended Term:

 

“Subject to the provisions set forth below, the Lease term may be renewed, at the option of Tenant (the “Renewal Option”), for two (2) additional periods of five years each (each a “Renewal Term” and together the “Renewal Terms”).  The Renewal Option may be exercised by Tenant as to either or both the 1310 Premises and 1320 Premises, but not for a portion of either the 1310 Premises or 1320 Premises, except that the second Renewal Option shall not apply to any portion of the Demised Premises as to which the first Renewal Option is not exercised.  The first Renewal Term shall apply, if exercised by Tenant, immediately following the expiration of the Seventh Amendment Extended Term, and the second Renewal Term shall apply, if exercised by Tenant, immediately following the expiration of the first Renewal Term.  Each Renewal Term will be upon the same terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Lease, as amended by this Seventh Amendment, except that (i) the Abated Base Rent Amount and the New Allowance called for by this Seventh Amendment shall not apply, (ii) if the Renewal Option is exercised as to the 1320 Premises, the 1320 Termination Right shall not apply, (iii) the minimum guaranteed rental due for such Renewal Term will be established as set forth in Sections 6(a) through 6(g) of Section 6 in the Sixth Amendment and Exhibit D to the Sixth Amendment, except as may be amended by this Seventh Amendment, and (iv) Tenant shall not have any additional right or options to extend or renew the Lease term other than the remaining Renewal Term if Tenant renews for the first Renewal Term.  Sections 6(a) through 6(g) of the Sixth Amendment shall apply to each Renewal Term under Section 6 of this Seventh Amendment, except:  (1) the reference to “1310-14-20 Lease Expiration Date” in Section 6(e) of the Sixth Amendment means the New Expiration Date (i.e. December 31, 2023) for the Seventh Amendment Extended Term, (2) clause (iii) in said Section 6(g) is revised to read “that Tenant has not assigned this Lease (other than to a Permitted Transferee)”, and (3) clause (v) of said Section 6(g) is deleted.  Any reference to the right of first offer in Section 6 or Sections 6(a) through 6(g) of the Sixth Amendment is deleted.  Exhibit D to the Sixth Amendment shall apply to establishing the Fair Market Rent and Fair Market Allowance for each Renewal Term under this Section 6.”

(d)                                 Non-Responsibility.  Tenant agrees and understands that the review of all plans by Landlord is solely to protect the interests of Landlord in the Building and Industrial Complex, and Landlord shall not be the guarantor of, nor responsible for, the correctness, completeness or accuracy of any such plans or compliance of such plans with applicable laws.  Landlord’s approval of any plans, work or any matter shall not: (i) impose any present or future liability on Landlord; (ii) constitute a waiver of Landlord’s rights hereunder or under the Lease, as amended by this Seventh Amendment; (iii) impose on Landlord any responsibility for a design and/or construction defect or fault in the Equipment, (iv) constitute a representation or warranty regarding the accuracy, completeness or correctness thereof of any plans or that such plans comply with any laws, rules, regulations, ordinances or codes of any governmental authority, including, without limitation, the Environmental Laws, or (v) constitute a representation or warranty that such plans or any work are in accordance with industry standards or will make the Equipment operational or functional upon completion.  Accordingly, Landlord (and its agents) shall not be responsible for any defect, flaw, error or omission in such plans, specifications or work, nor shall any inspection or failure to inspect by Landlord constitute a waiver of any right of Landlord under the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, or give rise to any liability thereby on the part of Landlord or its agents.

 

(e)                                  Building or Common Area Work.  Tenant agrees that, if Landlord makes any repairs or maintenance to the Building, Common Areas or other structures or facilities in and about Industrial Complex, or any alterations, modifications, additions or improvements to the Building, Common Areas or Industrial Complex, including any such work to the electrical, mechanical or other operating systems within or about the Building, Common Areas or Industrial Complex, Tenant at its sole cost shall make any concomitant adjustments or modifications to the Equipment and its related facilities, as such adjustments and modifications are reasonably determined to be necessary by any architect, engineer or other contractor engaged by Landlord in connection therewith, or, at Tenant’s option, the Equipment may be removed by Tenant from the Equipment Area.  The making of the requisite adjustments and modifications for the Equipment and its related facilities shall be made in accordance with plans and specifications which are prepared, submitted, reviewed and approved by Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
