On August 4, 2020, the EmeryStation landlord provided written notice to the Company pursuant to the amendment to the EmeryStation lease described above that it is exercising its early termination right. Therefore, both the EmeryStation lease and the Sublease Agreement will terminate as of August 31, 2020.
Tenant understands and acknowledges that Landlord and Zymergen are negotiating a potential lease under which Zymergen would lease from Landlord a portion of the Premises (the Zymergen Retained Space”, as such is more specifically defined in Exhibit A hereto) for a term commencing September 1, 2020, upon the expiration of the Lease assuming Landlord has elected to use its Early Termination Right. Landlord shall have the right to determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether or not it will enter into such a sublease with Zymergen for the Zymergen Retained Space, and is under no obligation to do so.
3.Early Termination Right. Tenant shall have the one-time right to terminate this Lease effective as of the last day of the 36th month of the Seventh Extended Term if the Landlord is unable to accommodate Tenant’s growth by at least fifty percent (50%) by finding a different property which is price competitive and which provides for medical device and drug compliance in a cost effective manner (this right, the “Early Termination Right”). Tenant shall give Landlord at least nine (9) months prior written notice thereof if Tenant chooses to exercise its Early Termination Right. After Tenant provides notice to Landlord, then Landlord will have three months to provide potential, alternative spaces to Tenant to evaluate. If Tenant exercises its Early Termination Right, it shall not be subject to a termination penalty, and the Lease shall terminate and the parties shall have no further duties and obligations under the Lease or otherwise, except for those obligations that expressly survive termination. If Tenant does not exercise its Early Termination Right, the Lease shall remain in full force and effect for the remainder of the Seventh Extended Term.
5.1Early Termination Right.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease as heretofore amended and under this Fifth Amendment, Tenant shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to terminate this Lease effective on a date of Tenant’s choosing which must occur, if at all, on or after December 31, 2019 (the ”Early Termination Date”) upon prior written notice given to Landlord upon not less that six (6) months prior to the Early Termination Date specified in Tenant’s notice of termination (the “Termination Notice”).In no event shall Tenant have the right to deliver the Termination Notice to Landlord earlier than April1, 2019.If Tenant elects to give Landlord such a Termination Notice, the Lease shall terminate on the specified Early Termination Date with the same effect as if the Term of the Lease had expired on the Early Termination Date, and Tenant agrees to observe all the terms of the Lease regarding vacation and condition of the Premises upon expiration of the Term in any such case.In consideration of the termination right granted to Tenant hereunder, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord on the date Tenant delivers its Termination Notice a termination fee equal to the aggregate sum of (a)One Hundred Forty‑Six Thousand Eight Hundred Thirty Dollars and Sixty‑Eight Cents ($146,830.68) plus (b)“Unamortized Costs” consisting of the remaining balance of unamortized tenant improvement and leasing commission costs amortized at a rate of 6.0% per annum (collectively the “Termination Fee”).Within thirty (30) days after final completion of Landlord’s Work in the Premises, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a schedule of the Unamortized Costs applicable to the remainder of the Extension Term.Tenant’s payment of the Termination Fee when and as required under this ¶5.1 is an express condition precedent to Tenant’s effective exercise of its termination option hereunder; and if Tenant fails to exercise its early termination right when and as provided hereunder, including timely payment of the Termination Fee, Tenant’s exercise of its early termination right shall be void and of no effect, and the Lease shall remain in effect as if Tenant had not attempted the exercise of its early termination right.Time is of the essence of this ¶5.1.
As part of that program, on July 28, 2020, GE Oil & Gas US Holdings I, Inc. (the “Stockholder”) entered into a master confirmation (the “Master Confirmation”) with Citibank, N.A. (the “Dealer”) that enables the Stockholder to enter into averaging share forward transactions (any such transaction, a “Forward Transaction”) from time to time with respect to shares of Class A Common Stock. The Master Confirmation provides for the Stockholder to sell and deliver up to a specified number of shares of Class A Common Stock to the Dealer following the end of a calculation period at a price determined at the end of the calculation period based on the volume weighted average price of transactions in the Class A Common Stock in the United States, weighted and adjusted as provided in the Master Confirmation. The number of shares to be delivered by the Stockholder under any Forward Transaction will be based on the Dealer’s hedging sales over the calculation period. The Dealer’s hedging sales will be subject to certain price and volume parameters. The Stockholder will settle any Forward Transaction by delivery of shares promptly following the end of the calculation period unless it elects cash settlement. The Stockholder retains an early termination right. The maximum number of shares that could be delivered under any Forward Transaction will be the number of shares that can be sold under Rule 144 (“Rule 144”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The number of shares and other terms of any Forward Transaction will be set forth in a supplement to the Master Confirmation in the form attached to the Master Confirmation.
1.6. Allowance. Landlord shall provide an allowance to Tenant of $100,000.00 (the “Exterior Allowance”) to reimburse Tenant for costs of improvements for a grade-level pedestrian connection to the Building, with walks, canopies, lighting, seating, snow melt, and other aesthetic features and improvements as mutually designed by Tenant and Landlord, provided that such improvements are completed by Tenant during the period commencing January 1, 2019 and ending December 1, 2020. In addition, Landlord shall provide an additional allowance to Tenant of $10.00 per square foot (the “Interior Allowance”) to reimburse Tenant for costs of improvements for interior features and improvements as proposes and mutually agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, provided that such improvements are completed by Tenant during the period commencing January 1, 2019 and ending December 1, 2020, and provided further that Tenant has not theretofore exercised its Early Termination Right. Such improvements shall be performed in compliance with the provisions of this Lease, and the Interior Allowance and Exterior Allowance, as applicable, shall be disbursed to Tenant within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s confirmation that the relevant improvements have been completed in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord, and receipt by Landlord of Tenant’s verification of costs and all applicable releases and waivers of liens.
4.1 Early Termination Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease as heretofore amended and under this Fourth Amendment, Tenant shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to terminate this Lease effective on June 30, 2017 (the ”Early Termination Date”) upon prior written notice given to Landlord no later than 5:00 p.m. on March 1, 2017 (the “Termination Notice”). If Tenant elects to give Landlord such a Termination Notice, the Lease shall terminate on the Early Termination Date with the same effect as if the Term of the Lease had expired on the Early Termination Date, and Tenant agrees to observe all the terms of the Lease regarding vacation and condition of the Premises upon expiration of the Term in any such case. In consideration of the termination right granted to Tenant hereunder, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord on the date Tenant delivers its Termination Notice a termination fee equal to Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Termination Fee”). Tenant’s payment of the Termination Fee when and as required under this 4.1 is an express condition precedent to Tenant’s effective exercise of its termination option hereunder; and if Tenant fails to exercise its termination option when and as provided hereunder, including timely payment of the Termination Fee, Tenant’s exercise of its termination option shall be void and of no effect, and the Lease shall remain in effect as if Tenant had not attempted the exercise of its termination option.Time is of the essence of this 4.1.
