Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.  

 

On January 25, 2017, Pulse Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a new lease agreement (the “Lease”) by and between the Company and Hayward Point Eden I Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Landlord”), for premises consisting of approximately fifteen thousand six hundred ninety-seven (15,697) rentable square feet located at 3955 Point Eden Way, Hayward, California (the “Premises”). 

 

The Premises will be used for the Company’s corporate headquarters and principal operating facility. The term of the Lease is sixty-two (62) months, commencing on the date that is the earlier of (i) the date upon which the Company commences business in the Premises or (ii) the date upon which the Premises is “Ready for Occupancy” as defined in the lease.  Base monthly rent shall be abated for the first two (2) months of the Lease term and thereafter will be $42,400 per month during the first year of the Lease term, with specified annual increases thereafter until reaching approximately $50,300 per month during the last two (2) months of the Lease term. The Company is required to pay a refundable security deposit of approximately $101,000.   The Landlord is obligated to provide the Company with improvement allowances in the amount of approximately $135.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises, which may be applied towards the costs of construction of the initial improvements in the Premises. The Company will be responsible for any such improvement costs in excess of the foregoing allowances.  The Company may also be required to reimburse Landlord for certain expenses during the Lease term.

The Company has the right to extend the Lease term by five (5) years upon written notice not more than twelve (12) months nor less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the original Lease term, with monthly payments equal to the “Fair Rental Value” as defined in the Lease.  The Company has also reserved the right to terminate the Lease if the Landlord is unable to deliver the facility to the Company by December 1, 2017.
