EXHIBIT 10.2
FIFTH AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS FIFTH AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT (this "Amendment") is made and entered into as of April 12, 2013, by and between BRANDYWINE RESEARCH LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Landlord"), and EMERGENT BIOSOLUTIONS INC., a Delaware corporation ("Tenant").
A. Landlord and Tenant are parties to a Lease Agreement (the "Original Lease") dated June 27, 2006, as amended by a First Amendment to Lease Agreement dated as of November 13, 2007, a Second Amendment to Lease Agreement (the "Second Amendment") dated as of December 13, 2010, a Third Amendment to Lease Agreement (the "Third Amendment") dated as of February 27, 2012, and a Fourth Amendment to Lease Agreement (the "Fourth Amendment") dated as of March 27, 2013 (the Original Lease as so amended is referred to herein as the "Current Lease"), for the Premises containing approximately 41,409 rentable square feet of space commonly known as Suites 220, 350 and 400 in the Building located at 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000. The Current Lease as amended by this Amendment is referred to herein as the "Lease".
B. Landlord and Tenant wish to amend the Current Lease upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:
1. Incorporation of Recitals; Definitions. The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated herein by reference as if set forth in full in the body of this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Current Lease.
2. Early Termination Options.
(a) Section 2 of the Fourth Amendment, Section 7 of the Third Amendment, Section 7 of the Second Amendment, and Section 35 of the Original Lease are hereby deleted in their entireties and replaced with Section 2(b) below.
(b) Tenant shall have a one-time right to terminate the Lease effective on January 31, 2015 provided Tenant: (i) is not then in default beyond any applicable notice and cure period under the Lease; (ii) gives written notice of such termination to Landlord no later than March 31, 2014; and (iii) pays to Landlord, at the time of such termination notice, $436,570.59 ("Termination Payment"). Time is of the essence with respect to the dates and deadlines set forth herein. Failure to provide written notice and payment within the prescribed timeframe will be considered by Landlord, without the necessity of additional notice, as a waiver of this right to terminate. 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 over the remainder of the scheduled Term. If Tenant timely and properly exercises the termination option in accordance with this paragraph, the Lease and the Term shall come to an end on January 31, 2015 with the same force and effect as if the Term were fixed to expire on such date.
3. Fixed Rent.
(a) Effective on June 1, 2013, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Fixed Rent with respect to Suite 220, which encompasses 8,109 square feet of rentable area, as follows, payable in the monthly installments as set forth below and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease:
