This First Amendment to Lease made and entered into this 1st day of May, 2008, by and between G & I VI 1155 BUSINESS CENTER FE LLC, successor to Brandywine Operating Grande C, L.P., hereinafter referred to as (“Landlord”) and CADISTA PHARMACEUTICALS INC., successor to Trigen Laboratories, Inc. for purposes of the Lease, hereinafter referred to as (“Tenant”).
WHEREAS, Landlord leased certain premises consisting of 1,638 rentable square feet of space commonly referred to Suite 130 (“Original Premises”) located at 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, XX (“Building”), to Tenant pursuant to that certain Lease dated November 1, 2005, hereinafter referred to as “Lease”; and
WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant wish to relocate Tenant from the Original Premises to the New Premises (defined below) on the terms set forth herein and in the Lease;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these present and the agreement of each other, Landlord and Tenant agree that the Lease shall be and the same is hereby amended as follows:
1. Incorporation of Recitals. The recitals set forth above, the Lease referred to therein and the exhibits attached hereto are hereby incorporated herein by reference as if set forth in full in the body of this First Amendment. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Lease.
2. Lease of New Premises.
(a) The Lease is hereby amended to provide that Landlord hereby demises and lets unto Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases and hires from Landlord, 2,997 rentable square feet of space with a Suite Number of 220 (“New Premises”), located on the second floor of the Building, as shown on Exhibit “A”, attached hereto and made a part hereof. The term of the Lease for the New Premises shall commence upon substantial completion of the Landlord’s Work (as defined in subparagraph (b) hereof) (“New Premises Commencement Date”). The New Premises shall be deemed substantially completed when the Landlord’s Work has been completed to the extent that the New Premises may be occupied by Tenant for its Permitted Uses, subject only to completion of minor finishing, adjustment of equipment, and other minor construction aspects, and Landlord has procured a temporary or permanent certificate of occupancy permitting the occupancy of the New Premises. The estimated New Premises Commencement Date is June 1, 2008. It is the mutual intention of Landlord and Tenant that the New Premises shall be leased to and occupied by Tenant on and subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary in this First Amendment, and to that end, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that from and after the New Premises Commencement Date, the word “Premises”, as defined in the Lease, shall mean and include only the New Premises (provided Tenant vacates the Original Premises as provided for herein).
(b) Landlord shall provide a “turnkey” tenant improvement package to fit out the New Premises using building standard finishes, in substantial conformity with a mutually agreed upon space plan based upon the “test fit” space plan entitled “SK-1”, prepared by Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Architects, dated April 14, 2008, (“Landlord’s Work”), the same of which is/shall be attached hereto, made a part hereof and marked as Exhibit “B”. Landlord will cap its contribution toward the aforementioned tenant improvement package at a “not to exceed” number of $33.00 per rentable square foot of the New Premises.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any material revision or supplement to Landlord’s Work is deemed necessary by Landlord, those revisions and supplements shall be submitted to Tenant for approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If Landlord shall be delayed in such “substantial completion” as a result of (i) Tenant’s failure to furnish plans and specifications within the time frame stated by Landlord in its reasonable discretion; (ii) Tenant’s request for materials, finishes or installations other than Landlord’s standard; (iii) Tenant’s changes in said plans; (iv) the performance or completion of any work, labor or services by a party employed by Tenant; or (v) Tenant’s failure to approve final plans, working drawings or reflective ceiling plans within the time frame stated by Landlord in its reasonable discretion (each, a “Tenant’s Delay”); then the commencement of the Term of this First Amendment and the payment of Fixed Rent hereunder shall be accelerated by the number of days of such delay. If any change, revision or supplement to the scope of the Landlord’s Work is requested by Tenant, then such increased costs associated with such change, revision or supplement shall be paid by Tenant upfront and such occurrence shall not change the New Premises Commencement Date of the Term and shall not alter Tenant’s obligations under this First Amendment.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in Section 2(c) above, the Term of this First Amendment shall commence on the date the New Premises would have been delivered to Tenant but for Tenant’s Delay or Tenant’s change order.
(e) Upon completion of Landlord’s Work, Landlord and Tenant shall schedule an inspection of the New Premises, at which time a punchlist of outstanding items, if any, shall be prepared. Landlord shall complete the punchlist items to Tenant’s reasonable satisfaction within a reasonable time thereafter, such time not to exceed thirty (30) days from the actual inspection, unless such items cannot be completed within such time, and then, in such reasonable time, so long as Landlord is diligently pursuing such items.
(f) The New Premises Commencement Date shall be confirmed by Landlord and Tenant by the execution of a Confirmation of Lease Term in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “C”. If Tenant fails to execute or object to the Confirmation of Lease Term within ten (10) business days of its delivery, Landlord’s determination of such dates shall be deemed accepted.
(g) On or before the New Premises Commencement Date, Tenant shall surrender the Original Premises in the condition required under the Lease. Upon Tenant’s delivery of the Original Premises to Landlord in accordance with the requirements of the Lease, Landlord shall release any claims that it may have against Tenant including payment of rent on the “Original Premises” from the date the “New Premises” are occupied with respect to any matters arising under the Lease relating to the Original Premises other than claims that may hereafter arise for indemnification with respect to injury to persons or property occurring thereon prior to or on the New Premises Commencement Date. Effective as of the New Premises Commencement Date, Tenant shall release any claims that it may have against Landlord with respect to any matters arising under the Lease relating to the Original Premises, other than claims that may arise for indemnification with respect to injury to persons or property occurring thereon prior to or on the New Premises Commencement Date.
