THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO OFFICE LEASE (this “First Amendment”),

dated as of August 14, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), is entered into by and between CSHV PEN FACTORY, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and GOODRX, a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), with reference to the following:

 

R E C I T A L S

 

A.
WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant entered into that certain Office Lease dated September [undated], 2019 (the “Lease”), for the lease of certain premises (the “Premises”) consisting of approximately 73,869 rentable square feet located on the ground floor and mezzanine level of that certain building (the “Building”) with an address of 2701 Olympic Boulevard, West Building, Santa Monica, California 90404, commonly known and identified as “Pen Factory”, as more particularly described in the Lease. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Lease. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, all references to the “Lease” in the Lease and in this First Amendment shall hereinafter be deemed to refer to the Lease, as amended hereby.

 

B.
WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant desire by this First Amendment to amend the Lease in order to (a) establish the Commencement Date, (b) resolve certain disputes regarding the condition of the Base Building and costs related to the Tenant Improvements, and
(c)
further amend, modify and supplement the Lease as set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals (which are incorporated herein by this reference), for the mutual promises 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:

 

A G R E E M E N T

 

1.
Dispute. Landlord delivered the Premises to Tenant on September 16, 2019. During the construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant made certain claims (including, without limitation, as set forth in correspondence from Tenant to Landlord dated May 20, 2020 and June 1, 2020) regarding certain aspects of the Premises, the Project and the Base Building, including, without limitation, claims pursuant to Section 1.3 of the Tenant Work Letter (the “Work Letter”) attached to the Lease as Exhibit B (collectively, the “Base Building Claims”), and Tenant submitted a claim to Landlord regarding certain reimbursable costs arising from and associated with the Base Building Claims pursuant to Section 6.9 of the Work Letter (the “Reimbursement Claim” and, together with the Base Building Claims, collectively, the “Aggregate Claims”). Landlord and Tenant have agreed to resolve the Aggregate Claims by agreeing to the “Commencement Date Adjustment” and the “Release” described below.

 

2.
Establishment of Commencement Date. In accordance with Section 7.2 of the Summary, the Lease Commencement Date was contemplated to be the date which is 270 days following the Delivery Date. Based on Landlord’s delivery of the Premises on September

16, 2019, the Lease Commencement Date would have been June 12, 2020. However, Landlord has agreed to delay the Lease Commencement Date to July 1, 2020 (the “Commencement Date Adjustment”) in exchange for the Release.

 

3.
Release. For valuable consideration and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, effective as of the Effective Date, Tenant, on behalf of itself and its affiliated companies, consultants, fiduciaries, agents, servants, employees, partners, shareholders, members, predecessors, advisors, managers, trustees, ancillary trustees, beneficiaries, representatives, officers, directors, attorneys, guarantors, successors and assigns (collectively and severally, the “Affiliated Entities”), hereby fully and forever releases and discharges Landlord and its Affiliated Entities (including, without limitation, LaSalle Investment Management, Inc., “CALSTRS” (as defined below), and all persons and entities acting by, through, under or in concert with them, or any of them, of and from and against any and all actions, adjudications, awards, causes of action, claims, costs, damages, demands, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs and court costs), fees, fines, forfeitures, injuries, judgments, liabilities, liens, losses, obligations, orders, penalties, proceedings, stop notices and suits (collectively, “Claims”), known or unknown, fixed or contingent, at law or in equity, by reason of, arising out of, based upon or relating to any matter, cause or thing whatsoever (including, without limitation, based on negligence or strict liability) occurring on or prior to the Effective Date, which Tenant now has or may hereafter have against Landlord, its Affiliated Entities, or any of them, including, without limitation, in any way arising or resulting from or in connection with or related to (a) the Lease, the Project or the Premises or the condition of any portion thereof (including, by way of example only and without limitation, any non-compliance with applicable Laws, regarding any non-compliance of the Base Building with any applicable Laws, and the Base Building Claims), (b) any Landlord Delay resulting from the Aggregate Claims, and (c) any amounts due from Landlord pursuant to Section 6.9 of the Work Letter, including, without limitation, with respect to the Reimbursement Claim (collectively, the “Release”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant agree that, subject to Sections 5 and 6 below, the Release does not include a waiver or release of any of Landlord’s ongoing maintenance and repair obligations under the Lease, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 5.2.2.2 of the Lease, the last sentence of Section 6.1.5 of the Lease, or Articles 7, 11 or 22 of the Lease (collectively, the “Landlord Ongoing Obligations”).

 

Tenant acknowledges that it is familiar with and understands California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:

 

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”

 

Tenant hereby waives and relinquishes every right or benefit that it has or may have under California Civil Code Section 1542 to the full extent that it may lawfully waive such right or benefit. In connection with such waiver and relinquishment, Tenant acknowledges that it may discover facts in addition to or different from those that it knows or believes to be true with
