A. Landlord and Tenant entered into that certain Lease Agreement dated as of May 23, 2019 (the “Lease”).

B. The parties hereto (the “Parties”) desire to amend the Lease in order to address and clarify matters with respect to the ongoing construction process for the Property, on the terms and conditions set forth in this First Amendment.

A G R E E M E N T :

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

2. Date Modifications. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to the following modifications of dates set forth in the Lease:

3. Delays. With respect to the Phase I Work and Phase II Work, Landlord and Tenant hereby stipulate that, as of the date hereof, there have been no Tenant Delays or delays due to Force Majeure. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall in no event be construed to prevent Landlord from claiming Tenant Delays due to matters, acts or omissions occurring after the date hereof, provided that Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notice or Email Notice of any such claimed Tenant Delay together with reasonable backup documentation evidencing such delay within five (5) days after the occurrence thereof (and any such Tenant Delay shall be subject to the cure and grace period, if any, set forth in Section 4.2 of Exhibit B of the Lease).

4. Lease Commencement Date/Beneficial Occupancy. The first sentence of Section 3.2 of the Summary is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: “The date which is four (4) months after the date Landlord delivers possession of the Phase I Premises to Tenant with Landlord’s Work (as defined in the Tenant Work Letter) and the Tenant Improvements (as defined in the Tenant Work Letter) with respect to the Phase I Premises (the “Phase I Work”) Substantially Complete (as defined in the Tenant Work Letter), which date of delivery of possession is subject to adjustment pursuant to the Tenant Work Letter.”

Wherever the term “Lease Commencement Date” appears in the Sections of the Lease referenced directly below, the term “Lease Commencement Date” is hereby replaced with the term “Beneficial Occupancy Start Date”:

5. Base, Shell, and Core Description. Exhibit B-1 of the Tenant Work Letter is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with Exhibit B-1 attached to this First Amendment, and Landlord hereby reaffirms its obligation to perform the work therein at its sole cost and expense (and not included in the Tenant Improvement Allowance) pursuant to the Approved Working Drawings for Landlord’s Work, which work shall be Substantially Complete prior to the Beneficial Occupancy Start Date with regards to the Phase I Work and prior to the Phase II Commencement Date with regards to the Phase II Work. In consideration for Tenant’s agreement to remove Section 3(k) of Exhibit B-1 of the Tenant Work Letter from the scope of Landlord’s Work, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a one-time payment of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($250,000.00) within sixty (60) days of the Lease Commencement Date.

6. Mutual Release. Landlord, together with its successors and assigns, officers, directors, employees, members, agents, shareholders, advisors, representatives, lenders and attorneys thereof, and each of them past and present, both individually and in their corporate capacities, is hereby fully and unconditionally released and discharged by Tenant from any Claims (as defined in Section 10.1 of the Lease) regarding amounts or credits claimed to be owed by Landlord to Tenant in connection with delays occurred to date in the completion of Landlord’s Work and/or the Tenant Improvements (except for the payment set forth in Section 5 above, Landlord’s obligation to fund the Tenant Improvement Allowance and any amounts or credits granted by Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, after the date of this First Amendment [it

being acknowledged that Landlord has no obligation to grant the same]), and Tenant, together with its successors and assigns, officers, directors, employees, members, agents, shareholders, advisors, representatives, lenders and attorneys thereof, and each of them past and present, both individually and in their corporate capacities, is hereby fully and unconditionally released and discharged by Landlord from any Claims of Tenant Delays to date (such matters expressly released by each party hereunder, the “Released Matters”). This First Amendment fully and finally settles all Claims with respect to delays in the completion of Landlord’s Work and/or the Tenant Improvements to date, including, without limitation, both known and unknown claims and causes of action that arise out of or in connection with the Released Matters arising prior to the date hereof.

Each of the Parties expressly waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides:

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

Each party acknowledges that it has received the advice of legal counsel with respect to the aforementioned waiver and understands the terms thereof.

This First Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which is to be deemed original for all purposes, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by facsimile, or e-mail of a PDF copy, of a counterpart of this First Amendment executed by Landlord or Tenant shall constitute delivery by such party of such party’s executed counterpart of this First Amendment.

m. Landlord’s Work shall be generally consistent with the plan attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 (the “Proposed Phase I Design”); provided that (i) the Proposed Phase I Design shall be subject to City required changes, modifications or clarifications during and as a result of the permit process (provided that any such changes, modifications, and clarifications shall be subject to Tenant’s reasonable approval; except that any changes to the number, location or size of windows, doors, skylights or other openings in the base building structure shall not require Tenant’s approval [except that, if the number of such items is reduced by the permitting process, and if the parties have the discretion to pick which of such items shall be eliminated, Tenant shall have the right to reasonably approve which items are eliminated]), and (ii) the executive restroom contained in the Proposed Phase I Design shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Landlord and Tenant each acknowledge and agree that, based on the currently available information, neither party believes that the Proposed Phase I Design would trigger full building structural upgrades to the Phase I Premises (a “Full Structural Upgrade”). However, if the Proposed Phase I Design does in fact trigger a Full Structural Upgrade, the parties shall work together in good faith to modify the Proposed Phase I Design so that a Full Structural Upgrade shall not be required. In no event shall a Full Structural Upgrade be incorporated into Landlord’s Work unless Landlord and Tenant, each in their sole and absolute discretion, mutually agree to incorporate same into Landlord’s Work. The foregoing shall not limit any of Landlord’s other obligations set forth in this Exhibit B-1 or elsewhere in this Lease, including Landlord’s obligation to ensure that the Phase I Premises and the Phase II Premises are both delivered to Tenant in structurally sound condition.
