Land lord, the Premises for the term, at the rental and subject to and upon all of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements hereinafter set forth:

1.
PREMISES:

1.1    Description. The Premises comprise the area described in Paragraph D of the Summary of Lease Terms, and as shown as crosshatched on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof.

1.2    Net Rentable Area Defined. The term "Net Rentable Area" is hereby defined for the purposes of this Lease to mean the area of space leased by Tenant (or, in the case of the entire Building, leasable) computed by measuring to the inside finish of permanent outer building walls, to the Premises side of public corridors and/or other permanent partitions and to the center of partitions which separate the adjoining rentable areas, with no deductions for columns and projections in the Building. On multi-tenant floors, common corridors and toilets, air conditioning rooms, fan rooms, janitorial closets, electrical and telephone closets and any other areas serving that floor are considered com mon area and for purposes of this Section shall be al located pro rata to the tenants. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant has measured or has waived measurement of the Net Rentable Area of the Premises and Building, and Tenant agrees that the square footage stated in Paragraph D of the Summary of Lease Terms is the Net
Rentable Area for the Premises and Building calculated on the basis of the foregoing definition, and Tenant further agrees to waive any right to contest the amount of such square footage.

2.    TERM:

2.1    Tenn. The term of this Lease shall be for a period commencing as of the Commencement Date (as defined in Paragraph E of the Summary of Lease Terms) and continuing to and including the Expiration Date (as defined in Paragraph E of the Summary of Lease Terms) unless sooner terminated pursuant to this Lease.
SEE ADDENDUM

3.    RENT:
Commencing on the date set forth in the Addendum,
3.1    Fixed Rent Tenant agrees to pay to Land lord the Fixed Rent (as set
forth in Paragraph F of the Summary of Lease Terms) in equal monthly installments in advance by the fifth of each calendar month of the term of this Lease without deduction, offset, prior notice or demand, in lawful money of the United States, at the office of Land lord at Land lord's address for notice as specified in Paragraph M of the Summary of Lease Terms or at such other place as designated by Land lord (the "Fixed Rent"). It is the responsibility of Tenant to ensure that the Rent arrives at the above-mentioned place on or before the due date. If the due date is a weekend or holiday, then Tenant must arrange for earlier delivery. Payments made by mail will be considered late if     they do not arrive at the place designated by Landlord on the designated due date.
All amounts of Rent including, without limitation, Fixed Rent, and other sums due under this Lease if not paid when due shall (i) bear interest from the due date until paid at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (x) the maximum rate allowed by law, or (y) fifteen percent (15%) (The "Default Rate") until fully paid, and (ii) incur a late charge of five percent (5%) of such unpaid amount. Landlord and Tenant agree that the amount of such interest and late charge is fair and reasonable compensation for costs and expenses incurred by Landlord due to the failure by Tenant to timely make any payment of Rent or other sums due under this Lase as such costs and expenses are extremely difficult to estimate and ascertain.
SEE ADDENDUM

    3.4 Rent Definition. Fixed Rent, as adjusted in accordance with the terms hereof, and any other sums due to Land lord from Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be deemed to be "Rent" hereunder.

4.    SECURITY DEPOSIT:

Concurrently with Tenant's execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Land lord the Security Deposit (as set forth in Paragraph H of the Summary of Lease Terms). The Security Deposit shall be held by Land lord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease to be kept and performed or observed by Tenant. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of Rent or any other monetary sums due herewith, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or other monetary sums due · herewith and/or for the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated by reason of Tenant's default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may ·suffer thereby. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, with ten (I 0) days after demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to the full amount thereof, and Tenant's failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Land lord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts and/or funds. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform all of its obligations hereunder, the Security Deposit, or any balance thereof that has not theretofore been applied by Landlord, shall be returned to Tenant, without payment of interest or other increment for its use (or, at Land lord's option, to the last assignee of Tenant's interest hereunder), with in ten (10) days after the expiration of the Lease term and after Tenant has vacated the Premises. In the event of termination of Landlord's interest in this Lease, Landlord shall transfer the Security Deposit to Landlord's successor in interest whereupon Land lord shall be released from any and all liability for the return thereof or the accounting therefor. No trust relationship is created herein between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the Security Deposit.

(c)    Within ninety (90) days after the close of each calendar year or as soon after such ninety (90) day period as practicable, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement of Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Costs and Taxes for such calendar year. If, on the basis of such statement, Tenant owes an amount that is more than the estimated payments for such calendar year previously made by Tenant, Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the statement. If on the basis of such statement Tenant has paid to Land lord an amount in excess of the actual adjustment to be made for the preceding calendar year and Tenant is not in default in the performance of any of its covenants under this Lease, then Land lord, at its option, shall either promptly refund such excess to Tenant or cred it the amount thereof to the Rent next becoming due from Tenant until such cred it has been exhausted.

ADDENDUM TO COMMERCIAL LEASE

This Addendum is part of the Commercial Lease ("Lease") between RESEARCH WAY I NVESTMENTS, a California limited partnership ("Landlord") and SIGA PHARMACEUTICALS, a Delaware corporation ("Tenant"). To the extent the Addendum contradicts provisions in the Lease, the Addendum shall control.

The effective date ("Effective Date") of this Lease is January 1, 1998, which date shall be the Commencement Date of the Lease for all purposes except for commencement of the payment of Fixed Rent and Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses and Taxes. Tenant shall be entitled to possession of the Premises on January 1, 1998; Tenant shall be entitled to possession of the Premises prior to January 1, 1998, for the limited purpose of preparing plans and permits.

2.Premises; Reserve Space.    The Premises consist of 10,220 square feet of Net Rentable Area, including 1, 8 6 O square feet referred to herein as the "Reserve Space". The Reserve Space is indicated on Exhibit Al as a cross-hatched area. In the event that AntiVirals, Inc. or its successor to its lease ("AntiVirals") is required, by applicable governmental agency, to construct and maintain a corridor through the Premises to the stairwell next to the freight elevator, the Premises shall be reduced by the square footage comprising the corridor (and the Fixed Rent and Tenant's Percentage Share of Operating Expenses and Taxes shall be adjusted accordingly). Tenant shall not be responsible for any portion of the cost or expense of constructing such a corridor.

3.Commencement of Fixed Rent and Share of Operating Costs and Taxes. Tenant's obligation to pay Fixed Rent with respect to the Premises, excluding the Reserve Space, shall commence on April 1, 1998; Tenant's obligation to pay Fixed Rent on the Reserve Space shall commence on the earlier of April 1, 1998, or the commencement date of a sublease of the Reserve Space (or any portion thereof) to a third party. Tenant's obligation to pay its percentage share of Operating Costs and Taxes with respect to the Premises, excluding the Reserve Space, shall commence on the date on which Tenant commences any work in the Premises, including any alteration, construction, or demolition of any portion of the Premises, and in any case no later than April 1, 1998. Tenant's obligation to pay its percentage share of Operating Costs and Taxes with respect to the Reserve Space shall commence on the earlier of September 1, 1998, or the commencement date of a sublease of the Reserve Space (or any portion thereof) to a third party. Prior to the commencement date for Tenant's obligation to pay its percentage share of Operating Costs and Taxes on the Reserve Space, Tenant shall not occupy or use the Reserve Space for any purpose other than storage or preparation of the Reserve Space for occupancy by Tenant or a sublessee.

4.Option to Extend Lease. The initial term of the Lease shall be seven (7) years, commencing on January 1, 1998, and expiring on December 31, 2004 ("Initial Term"). So long as Tenant is not in default in this Lease, Tenant may, at its option, extend the Lease for an additional seven (7) years ("Extended Term") by delivering to Landlord irrevocable written


notice of exercise of its option on or before January 1 2004.
























5.Annual Increase in Fixed Rent. On January 1, 1999, and on each January 1 thereafter during the Lease, including the Extended Term, if any, the monthly Fixed Rent payable by Tenant shall increase by three percent (3 %) of the Fixed Rent paid during the preceding December.

6.
Right of First Refusal on Adjacent Space.

6A. The approximately 7000 square feet of Net Rentable Area indicated as a cross-hatched area on Exhibit A2 (herein referred to as the "First Refusal Area") is part of the premises currently occupied by Health Care Partners ("Health Care Premises"). AntiVirals has a first right of refusal to Lease any portion of the Health Care Premises, except the First Refusal Area. So long as Tenant is not in default in this Lease, Landlord shall not enter into a lease with any third party except Health Care Partners for any portion of the First Refusal Area without delivering to Tenant a written notice ("Landlord's Notice") which gives Tenant the right to lease either the First Refusal Area or the entire portion of the Health Care Premises that would be leased to the third party, on the terms provided herein. The Landlord's Notice shall state the per square foot rate for Fixed Rent which the third party will pay (based on the assumption that the lessee shall also pay its applicable percentage share of Operating Costs and Taxes), the per square foot allowance, if any, for tenant improvements to be provided by Landlord to the third party, the commencement date for the thi rd party lease, the expiration date for the third party Lease, and the approximate amount of square feet in and Location of the portion of the First Refusal Area and the Health Care Premises that the third party desires to lease. Tenant shall have fifteen (15) business days after receipt of Landlord's Notice to deliver written notice to Landlord that: (a) Tenant will exercise its right to lease the First Refusal Area; or (b) Tenant will exercise its right to lease the First Refusal Area but prefers to lease the entire portion of the Health Care Premises desired by the third party. If Tenant fails to timely deliver such written notice to Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to enter into a lease with the third party on the terms stated in Landlord's Notice, and Tenant shall have no further interest in the portion of the First Refusal Area leased to the thi rd party.

6B. If Tenant does timely deliver notice to Landlord of Tenant's exercise of its right to lease the First Refusal Area, then the entire First Refusal Area shall become part of Tenant's Premises as of the commencement date stated in Landlord's notice, and shall be leased by Tenant until the longer of the expiration date stated in Landlord's Notice or the term of this Lease. If the third party desired to lease more than 7000 square feet of the Health Care Premises, then Tenant shall pay Fixed Rent for the First Refusal Area at a rate that is one hundred ten percent (110 %) of the rate stated in Landlord's Notice (in addition to the percentage share of Operating Costs and Taxes applicable to the First Refusal Area); if the third party desired to lease 7000 or less square feet, then Tenant shall pay Fixed Rent for the First Refusal Area at the rate stated in Landlord's Notice (in addition to the percentage share of Operating Expenses and Taxes applicable to the First Refusal Area). Landlord shall make available to Tenant the per square foot tenant improvement allowance, if any, as stated in the Landlord's notice. Except as provided above, the terms and provisions of the Lease shall apply to Tenant's lease of the First Refusal Area.


    


























6C. If Tenant does timely deliver notice to Landlord of Tenant's exercise of its preference to lease the entire portion of the Health Care Premises desired by the third party, then Landlord shall immediately take steps to ascertain whether AntiVirals will exercise or waive its first right of refusal on the portion of the Health Care Premises outside the First Refusal Area. If AntiVirals waives its rights, then the entire portion of the Health Care Premises desired by the third party shall become part of the Premises as of the commencement date stated in Landlord's Notice, and shall be leased by Tenant until the longer of the expiration date stated in Landlord's Notice or the term of this Lease. Tenant shall pay Fixed Rent for the new space at the rate stated in Landlord's Notice (in addition to the percentage share of Operating Expenses and Taxes applicable to the new space). Landlord shall make available to Tenant the per square foot tenant improvement allowance, if any, as stated in Landlord's Notice. Except as provided herein, the terms and provisions of the Lease shall apply to Tenant's lease of the new space. If AntiVirals exercises its first right of refusal on the portion of the Health Care Premises outside the First Refusal Area, then the First Refusal Area shall become part of Tenant's Premises on the terms and conditions described in Subparagraph 6B above.

6D. It is understood that in negotiations with third parties to lease space in the Building (including all or portions of the Health Care Premises), Landlord has the right to lease out the First Refusal Area first, even though other unaffected portions of the Health Care Premises and/or other portions of the Building may be vacant and remain vacant.

6E. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Paragraph 6 of the Addendum, if Tenant fails to exercise its option to extend this Lease as provided in Paragraph 4 of this Addendum, then Tenant shall have no further right, under this Paragraph 6, to enter into a lease of the First Refusal Area (or any other portion of the Health Care Premises) after January 2, 2004. If Tenant exercises its option to extend the Lease but has not exercised its right to lease the First Refusal Area before the commencement of the last year of the Extended Term, Tenant shall have no further right, under this Paragraph 6, to enter into a lease of the First Refusal Area (or any other portion of the Health Care Premises), unless the Lease is further extended by mutual agreement of Tenant and Landlord.

7.    (Clarification of Paragraph 7.1 Through 7.3 of Lease). Prior to the Effective Date of this Lease, Landlord shall, as an operating expense, make necessary adjustments, if any, to the Building's heating and air conditioning system in the Premises to cause it to provide adequate heating and air conditioning for normal office use of the office portion of the Premises. Tenant shall, at its cost and expense, make adjustments and installations to the Building's system necessitated by Tenant's construction and demolition activities in the Premises or by the manner in which Tenant partitions the Premises . The electricity used by the heating and air conditioning of the office portion of the Premises shall be paid by all tenants as an operating expense. The thermostat for normal office use shall be within Tenant's control twenty four (24) hours per day. Tenant shall, at its cost and expense, install separate and adequate heating and air conditioning for its laboratory and other non-office use of the Premises and shall install a separate meter or submeter for electricity. The electricity used by the heating and air conditioning for the laboratory and other non-office use shall be paid directly by Tenant when due.

8.    (Clarification of Paragraph 9). Tenant need not obtain Landlord's prior consent for non­ structural changes which will have no effect on the Building 's systems and which will cost less than $50,000. However, prior to commencing any work Tenant shall deliver to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior written notice specifying t11e nature of the changes .that Tenant intends to make and providing a copy of the proposed plans; Tenant shall permit Landlord the opportunity to post "nonresponsibility" signs in the Premises. As soon as the work is completed, Tenant shall deliver to Land lord written notice specifying the completed work and providing copies of t11e "as-built" plans or specifications for any structural changes. All work by Tenant shall be deemed "Alterations" for all other purposes in Paragraph 9 of Lease. Alterations which are Tenant's trade fixtures and which are listed on Exhibit E attached hereto shall be removed by Tenant prior to expiration or termination of the Lease.

9.    (Clarification of Paragraph 16). Tenant shall have the right to sublet all or any part of the Premises for use as executive or administrative offices wit110ut Land lord 's consent; provided that the sublessee shall not be a governmental agency, governmental office, or governmental entity wit110ut the prior written consent of Landlord. Tenant shall also have the right to assign the Lease or sublet all or any part of the Premises to an affiliate of Tenant wit11out Landlord's consent; an affiliate of Tenant shall mean an entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Tenant. Tenant shall deliver prior written notice of the proposed assignment or sublease to Landlord , together with a copy of the sublease or assignment that will affect the transfer.

10.    (Replacement Paragraph 17.1). Landlord represents to Tenant that, as of the Effective Date of this Lease, there are no existing ground leases and that the only existing mortgage or trust deed affecting the Premises, Building, or the land upon which the Building is situated is held by Washington Federal Savings & Loan ("Existing Lender"). Landlord further represents





that, to Landlord's knowledge, its loan from Existing Lender is free from default. This Lease, at the option of Existing Lender, shall at all times be subject and subordinate to the existing loan. Within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date of this Lease, Landlord shall arrange for the mutual execution by Existing Lender and Tenant and shall deliver an instrument, in the form required by Existing Lender, evidencing the continued subordination and containing written confirmation of non-disturbance of Tenant (i.e., that so long as Tenant is not in default under the Lease, the Lease shall not be terminated by any foreclosure or trustee's sale of the existing loan or trust deed, or deed in lieu thereof). 111e instrument evidencing subordination and confirming non­disturbance shall be recorded, at Tenant's expense, in Benton County records within thirty (30) days of execution and delivery.

In the event that future lenders or ground lessees desire to have this Lease be subordinate to any future grounds leases, mortgages, or deeds of trust which affect the Premises, the Building, or the land upon which the Building is situated or on or against the Landlord 's

interest or estate therein, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of Landlord's written request, execute and deliver an instrument evidencing the subordination, in the form required by such lenders or ground lessees; provided, that such future lenders and/or ground lessees shall provide Tenant, in said instrument, with written confirmation of non-disturbance as a condition to obtaining such subordination. Such instruments shall be recorded, at Tenant's expense, in Benton County records within thirty (30) days of execution and delivery.

Simultaneously with execution of this Lease, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an original of the statutory quitclaim deed attached to this Lease as Exhibit F. Landlord shall be entitled to record the quitclaim deed upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, execute replacement quitclaim deeds naming other grantees, addresses, etc. from time to time.

11.    (Clarification of Paragraph 20.20) . Landlord covenants and represents to Tenant that no real estate broker, finder, or salesman claiming through Landlord, other than Broker, has a claim for a commission or finder's fee in connection with this Lease. Landlord agrees to hold Tenant harmless from and to defend and indemnify Tenant against any and all claims, cost, liability and/or expense (including attorneys' fees and court costs) incurred by Tenant in connection with any claim by any real estate broker, finder, or salesman claiming through Landlord in connection with this Lease.

12.    Broker's Commission. In the event that Tenant exercises its right to lease additional space (whether the First Refusal Area or other portion of the Health Care Premises) as provided in Paragraph 6 of this Addendum, at the commencement of the lease term of the additional space Landlord shall pay to Jacobsma & Associates ("Broker"), at P.O. Box 1833, Paso Robles.CA 93447 or such other address of which Broker notifies Landlord in writing, a commission equal to six percent (6%) of the Total Proceeds (defined below) to be paid by Tenant on the additional space over the entire lease term for the additional space. In the event Tenant exercises its option to extend this Lease, at the commencement of the Extended Term Landlord shall pay to Broker a commission equal to three percent (3%) of the Total Proceeds to be paid by Tenant during the Extended Term. As used in this Paragraph, Total Proceeds means the Fixed Rent plus the estimated payments of Operating Expenses and Taxes. Broker is the intended beneficiary of this Paragraph; this Paragraph cannot be modified or deleted without Broker's written consent; Broker shall have the right to enforce this Paragraph by legal action and, if Broker prevails in such legal action, Landlord shall reimburse Broker for its attorneys' fees and costs incurred in such legal action.

13.    Portable, Partitions and Furniture.    In the event Tenant desires to rent portable office partitions and/or office furniture owned by Landlord, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into a separate rental agreement specifying the inventory of items to be rented, the term of the rental agreement, the monthly rent, and other provisions mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant. It is understood that Tenant shall be responsible for installation and assembly of any portable office partitions rented from Landlord.

14.    Health Care Partners Access To and From Freight Elevator. Tenant will allow, with reasonable advance notice during business hours or at other times by special arrangement, Health Care Partners and/or any subsequent tenant to have access through their non-lab space for the purpose of transporting supplies and/or equipment to and from the freight elevator and for emergency evacuation if required by local governing authorities.
