Options to Extend a. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant two (2) options (singularly an “Extension Option” and collectively the “Extension Options”) to extend the term of this Agreement for additional terms of five (5) years each (singularly an “Option Period” and collectively the “Option Periods”), on the same terms, conditions and covenants set forth in this Agreement, except the monthly rental shall be adjusted as hereinafter provided. Each Extension Option shall be exercised automatically without providing any notice of extension unless Tenant provides written notice delivered to the Landlord that Tenant will not extend the Term of this Agreement at least one (1) year prior to the expiration of the Primary Term or the preceding Option Period.
b. Base Rent for the Extension Options shall be as set forth in Section 3.4 of this Agreement.
c. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any option to extend the Term of this Agreement shall be deemed null and void, at Landlord’s sole discretion, if one or more of the following has occurred:
1) Tenant has been late in the payment of Rent on three (3) or more occasions within any twelve (12) month period, after Tenant first receiving written notice from Landlord that Tenant was late in the payment of Rent for the first two occasions before a third late payment is to occur. For this purpose, a payment shall be deemed to be late if it is received by Landlord after the tenth (10th) day of the month in which such Rent is due.
2) Tenant is in default beyond any applicable cure period in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement at the time Tenant exercises any Extension Option, or at the time of commencement of any Option Period.
3) This Agreement has ever been assigned by Tenant other than as set forth in this Agreement.
d. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement, at any time after the ninth full year after the Commencement Date, Landlord may elect to terminate the Agreement for any reason or no reason by giving Tenant three hundred sixty five (365) days prior written notice of such election (“Notice”), such termination to be effective as of the date three hundred sixty five (365) days after the date of the Notice (the “Termination Date”). In the event of any termination of the Agreement by Landlord as provided herein, Landlord hereby reserves any and all rights and remedies available to Landlord under the Agreement, at law or in equity with respect to any past due amounts due from Tenant under the Agreement or any other defaults by Tenant thereunder occurring prior to the Termination Date. Upon any such termination, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in the condition required by the Agreement on the Termination Date and the parties shall be relieved of further obligation under the Agreement accruing after the Termination Date (except as to any monies due and owing as of the Termination Date, to include any outstanding amounts of Rent or those obligations which are specifically stated to survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Agreement).
Options to Extend Term Tenant shall have options (each, an “Option”) to extend the Term of this Lease upon the following terms and conditions:
42.1. Tenant shall have two (2) consecutive Options to extend the Term of this Lease by three (3) years each on the same terms and conditions as this Lease. Basic Annual Rent shall equal ninety-five percent (95%) of the fair market value (“FMV”) for comparable office/research and development projects in the Brisbane/Peninsula market as of the date Tenant exercises the respective Option, increased on each annual anniversary of the commencement of each extended term by such percentage, if any, that constitutes a market rate annual increase for such market. In the event that Landlord and Tenant disagree as to the FMV, they shall hire an appraiser reasonably acceptable to both parties, the cost of which shall be split equally by Landlord and Tenant, which appraiser’s decision as to the FMV shall be binding on both parties.
42.2. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not assign or transfer an Option, either separately or in conjunction with an assignment or transfer of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion.
42.3. The Options are conditional upon Tenant giving Landlord written notice of its election to exercise the applicable Option at least nine (9) months prior to the end of the expiration of the then-current Term of this Lease.
42.4. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 42, Tenant shall not have the right to exercise an Option:
(a) During the time commencing from the date Landlord delivers to Tenant a written notice that Tenant is in default under any provisions of this Lease and continuing until Tenant has cured the specified default to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction; or
(b) At any time after an event of Default as described in Section 24 of the Lease (provided, however, that, for purposes of this Subsection 42.4(b), Landlord shall not be required to provide Tenant with notice of such Default) and continuing until Tenant cures any such Default, if such Default is susceptible to being cured; or
(c) In the event that Tenant has committed a Default two (2) or more times and a service or late charge has become payable under Section 24.1 for each of such Defaults during the twelve (12)-month period immediately prior to the date that Tenant intends to exercise the Option, whether or not Tenant cures such Defaults within any applicable cure period.
42.5. The period of time within which Tenant may exercise an Option shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenant’s inability to exercise such Option because of the provisions of Section 42.4.
42.6. All of Tenant’s rights under the provisions of the Option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect even after Tenant’s due and timely exercise of an Option if, after such exercise, but prior to the commencement date of the new term, (a) Tenant fails to pay to Landlord a monetary obligation of Tenant for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant, (b) Tenant fails to commence to cure a default (other than a monetary default) within thirty (30) days after the date Landlord gives notice to Tenant of such default or (c) Tenant has defaulted under this Lease three (3) or more times and a service or late charge under Section 24.1 has become payable for any such default, whether or not Tenant has cured such defaults.
Options to Renew Provided that no Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease exists as of the date of exercise of the applicable option or at the expiration of the initial term or preceding Option Term, and provided further that Tenant has not assigned this Lease, Tenant shall have the option to extend the initial lease term for four (4) additional, successive terms of five (5) years each (each, an "OPTION TERM"). Tenant shall exercise the option, if at all, by delivering to Landlord written notice of the exercise no sooner than fifteen (15) months nor later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or preceding Option Term, as applicable. Tenant's right to exercise each option shall be conditioned upon Tenant delivering to Landlord with Tenant's notice of exercise, current financial reports which evidence that Tenant's financial condition on the date of exercise is equal to or better than Tenant's financial condition on the date of execution of this Lease. If Tenant's financial condition has declined in Landlord's business judgment, Landlord may refuse to accept Tenant's exercise unless Tenant agrees to provide a new Letter(s) of Credit with terms and amounts acceptable to Landlord in its business judgment to secure Tenant's obligations during the applicable Option Term. All terms, provisions, conditions and covenants of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect during the Option Terms, provided that Tenant shall have no additional option periods and the Base Rent payable during the first Lease Year of each Option Term (and for increases during the Option Term, as applicable) shall be the market rate then prevailing as projected for the commencement of the applicable Option Term, for premises comparable in size, quality and location in comparable class R&D/Office buildings throughout the Tri-Valley/Livermore area taking into account all relevant factors (the "MARKET RENT"). Base Rent for the Option Term shall be determined prior to the commencement of the applicable Option Term in the following manner: If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the market rent within sixty (60) days after Tenant gives notice of its exercise of the Option Term, then Tenant shall have the right to revoke its exercise of the option by delivering written notice within ten (10) days following the expiration of such 60-day period. In the event of such revocation, Tenant shall forfeit all rights to thereafter exercise any option under this Lease and the Lease shall terminate at the end of the initial term, or then Option Term, as applicable. If Tenant does not revoke its exercise and elects to proceed with the determination of market rent, then the monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent payable during the Option Term shall be determined by appraisal in the following manner: If Landlord and Tenant can agree on a single appraiser, then the rate set by such appraiser as set forth below shall be the Base Rent for the Option Term. If the parties cannot agree on a single appraiser, then each party, by giving written notice to the other party, shall appoint as an appraiser an experienced commercial real estate agent in the area in which the Premises are located. Said appointment shall be made within ten (10) days following the expiration of the sixty (60) day period aforesaid, and if one of the parties does not appoint an appraiser within that time, the single appraiser named shall be the sole appraiser and shall set the monthly Base Rent for the Option Term. If the two appraisers are appointed as provided herein, each shall independently prepare an estimate of the market rent within sixty (60) days. If the higher of the two estimates so determined is within ten percent (10%) of the lower estimate, then the monthly Base Rent to be paid by Tenant during the Option Term shall be the average of the amounts determined by the appraisers. If the difference between the two estimates exceeds ten percent (10%) of the lower one, the two appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the qualifications set forth hereinabove within ten (10) days thereafter who will likewise independently estimate the market rate within sixty (60) days after the appointment. The average of the two closest appraisals shall be set as the monthly Base Rent. Each party shall pay the fees of the appraiser appointed by such party and the parties will share equally the fees of any third appraiser appointed pursuant to this Section A-2.1. Notwithstanding the above, the Base Rent payable by Tenant during each Option Term shall be in addition to all Additional Rent and other sums and charges payable by Tenant under the terms of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the options granted herein are personal to Tenant and may not be assigned with an assignment of this Lease except in connection with an assignment to an entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant (as defined in Article 20 of this Lease) or which is a successor to Tenant by merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all of Tenant's assets with Landlord's prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld.

(vi) in the event of any serious or intentional violation of any laws and regulations or misappropriation of a Third Party’s intellectual property rights by a Sublicensee anywhere in the world, which in BMS’s and MPP’s judgment, may reflect unfavorably on BMS, MPP, their reputation or the Licensed Products.
Term and Renewal Options The term of service is 24 months (Initial Term). Following the expiration of the Initial Term, service under this option will continue on a month-to-month basis subject to the terms and conditions, including rates and discounts set forth under this option (Extension Term). The Company or the Customer may elect to forego the Extension Term by providing the other party written notice at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term. Either party may terminate service during the Extension Term by providing the other party at least 60 days prior written notice. Term shall mean the Initial Term and the Extension Term.
Extension Options Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.6.1, Borrower shall have the option (the “First Extension Option”), by irrevocable written notice (the “First Extension Notice”) delivered to Lender no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Stated Maturity Date, to extend the Maturity Date to August 31, 2022 (the “First Extended Maturity Date”). Borrower’s right to so extend the Maturity Date shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent prior to the effectiveness of any such extension:
(a) (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date Borrower delivers the First Extension Notice or the Second Extension Notice, as applicable, and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Stated Maturity Date and the First Extended Maturity Date, as applicable;
(b) All amounts due and payable by Borrower and any other Person pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents as of the Stated Maturity Date or the First Maturity Date, as applicable, and all costs and expenses of Lender, including fees and expenses of Lender’s counsel, in connection with the Loan and/or the extension shall have been paid in full;
(c) Borrower shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to Lender (i) certifying that all representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement remain true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the commencement of the applicable Extension Option, and (ii) waiving any claims, counterclaims, rights of rescission, set-offs or defenses, known or unknown, against Lender as of the commencement of the applicable Extension Option. If Borrower is unable to satisfy all of the foregoing conditions within the applicable time frames for each, Lender shall have no obligation to extend the Stated Maturity Date hereunder.
Renewal Options a. Tenant shall have the right and option to renew the Lease (“Renewal Option”) for two (2) successive renewal periods of five (5) years each (each, an “Option Term”); provided, however, the Renewal Option is contingent upon the following: (i) there is not an Event of Default beyond all applicable cure period(s) at the time Tenant gives Landlord notice of Tenant’s intention to exercise the Renewal Option or at the expiration of the current Term; (ii) no event has occurred that upon notice or the passage of time would constitute an Event of Default, unless Landlord has given notice of default and Tenant is diligently attempting to cure such event; and (iii) Tenant is occupying the Premises. Following expiration of the final Option Term allowable hereunder, Tenant shall have no further right to renew the Lease pursuant to this Section 5.
b. Tenant shall exercise the Renewal Option by giving Landlord notice at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the current Term. If Tenant fails to give notice to Landlord prior to the 180-day period, then Tenant shall forfeit the Renewal Option. If Tenant exercises the Renewal Option, then during the Option Term, Landlord and Tenant’s respective rights, duties and obligations shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Lease, except as provided otherwise in this Section. Time is of the essence in exercising the Renewal Option.
c. The Base Rental for an Option Term shall be the Fair Market Rental Rate. “Fair Market Rental Rate” shall mean the market rental rate for the time period such determination is being made for office space in same class office buildings in the area of Murfreesboro, Tennessee (the “Area”) of comparable condition for space of equivalent quality, size, utility, and location. Such determination shall take into account all relevant factors, including, without limitation, the following matters: the credit standing of Tenant; the length of the term; the fact that Landlord will experience no vacancy period and that Tenant will not suffer the costs and business interruption associated with moving its offices and negotiating a new lease; construction allowances and other tenant concessions that would be available to tenants comparable to Tenant in the Area (such as moving expense allowance, free rent periods, and lease assumptions and take over provisions, if any, but specifically excluding the value of improvements installed in the Premises at Tenant’s cost), and whether adjustments are then being made in determining the rental rates for renewals in the Area because of concessions being offered by Landlord to Tenant (or the lack thereof for the Option Term in question). For purposes of such calculation, it will only be assumed that Landlord is paying a representative of Tenant a brokerage commission in connection with the Option Term in question if Landlord is in fact paying a brokerage commission to a representative of Tenant in connection with the applicable Option Term.
Termination Option Provided Tenant is the originally named Tenant, Tenant is neither in monetary default of this Lease on the Termination Date (as defined below) nor has there previously been an Event of Monetary Default, and this Lease is in full force and effect, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective at 11:59 p.m. on the Termination Date, in accordance with and subject to each of the following terms and conditions (“Termination Option”). The “Termination Date” shall mean the last day of the 40th full calendar month after the Commencement Date. If Tenant desires to exercise the Termination Option, Tenant shall give to Landlord irrevocable written notice of Tenant’s exercise of the Termination Option (“Termination Notice”), together with the Termination Payment (as defined below). The Termination Notice and the Termination Payment shall be received by Landlord no later than the date that is 9 months prior to the Termination Date, failing which the Termination Option shall be deemed waived (provided Landlord reserves the right to waive in writing the requirement that Tenant fully and/or timely pay the Termination Payment). The “Termination Payment” shall equal the sum of: (A) the unamortized (amortized on a straight-line basis with interest at 10%): (i) brokerage commissions and attorneys’ fees paid by Landlord in connection with this Lease; (ii) rent concessions; and (iii) total cost incurred by Landlord for improvements, including the Leasehold Improvements, to the Premises in connection with this Lease. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Termination Payment is not a penalty and is fair and reasonable compensation to Landlord for the loss of expected rentals from Tenant. The Termination Payment shall be payable by wire transfer or cashier’s check. Time is of the essence with respect to the dates and deadlines set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time during the period on or after the date of the Termination Notice, up to and including the Termination Date, Tenant shall be in default of this Lease, then Landlord may elect, but is not obligated, by written notice to Tenant to cancel and declare null and void Tenant’s exercise of the Termination Option, in which case this Lease shall continue in full force and effect for the full Term unaffected by Tenant’s exercise of the Termination Option. If Tenant timely and properly exercises the Termination Option in accordance with this paragraph and Landlord has not negated the effectiveness of Tenant’s exercise of the Termination Option pursuant to the preceding sentence, this Lease and the Term shall come to an end on the Termination Date with the same force and effect as if the Term were fixed to expire on such date, the Expiration Date shall be the Termination Date, and the terms and provisions of Section 18 shall apply.
