THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE (“Amendment”) is entered into as of November 8, 2021 (the “First Amendment Effective Date”), by and between CA-MISSION STREET LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Landlord”), and FORGEROCK, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), with reference to the following facts:
A.Landlord and Tenant are parties to that certain Office Lease Agreement dated as of November 19, 2014 (the “Lease”), pursuant to which Landlord leases to Tenant space presently deemed to contain approximately 15,744 rentable square feet (the “Original Premises”) described as Suite No. 2900 in the building located at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx (the “Building”).
B.Landlord has remeasured the Building and the Premises in accordance with the guidelines for such measurements specified in the American National Institute Publication ANSI/BOMA Z65.1-2017, as adopted by the Building Owners and Managers Association and as interpreted and applied by Landlord’s measurement firm to the Building (such remeasurement being referred to herein as the “New Measurement”). As a consequence of the New Measurement, during the First Amendment Extended Term (defined below), the Building shall be deemed to contain approximately 524,805 rentable square feet, and the Premises shall be deemed to contain approximately 16,943 rentable square feet.
C.The Lease by its terms is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2022 (“Current Termination Date”), and the parties desire to extend the Term, all on the following terms and conditions.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals, which by this reference are incorporated herein, the mutual covenants and conditions contained herein and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:
1.Premises. Effective as of May 1, 2022 (the “First Amendment Extension Date”), the Rentable Area of the Premises shall be increased from “15,744 square feet” to “16,943 square feet” (the “Remeasured Premises”). Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that such increase is a result of a remeasurement of the Original Premises and not the result of a relocation, expansion or addition of space. As of the First Amendment Extension Date, the “Premises”, as defined in the Lease, shall mean the Remeasured Premises. The Rent and all other charges under the Lease shall remain payable as provided therein with respect to the Original Premises up to and including the Current Termination Date.
2.Extension. The Term is hereby extended for a period of eighty-eight (88) months and shall expire on August 31, 2029 (“First Amendment Extended Termination Date”), unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the Lease. That portion of the Term commencing on First Amendment Extension Date and ending on the First Amendment Extended Termination Date shall be referred to herein as the “First Amendment Extended Term”. Accordingly, references in the Lease to the “Term” shall be deemed to include the First

(c)Limitation on Right of First Offer.

All of Tenant’s Agents shall be licensed in the State of California, capable of being bonded and union-affiliated in compliance with all then existing master labor agreements.
3.2 Construction of Tenant Improvements by Tenant’s Agents.
(a) Construction Contract. Tenant’s construction contract and general conditions with Contractor (the “Contract”) shall comply with all relevant provisions of this Work Agreement. Prior to the commencement of the construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a schedule of values consisting of a detailed breakdown, by trade, of the final costs to be incurred or which have been incurred, for all Allowance Items in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements, which costs form the basis for the amount of the Contract (“Final Costs”). Prior to the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord and Tenant shall identify the amount (the “Over-Allowance Amount”) equal to the difference between the amount of the Final Costs and the amount of the Allowance (less any portion thereof already disbursed by Landlord, or in the process of being disbursed by Landlord, on or before the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements). In the event that the Final Costs are greater than the Allowance (such excess, the “Over-Allowance Amount”), then Landlord will reimburse Tenant on a monthly basis, as described in Section 1.2(b)(ii) above, for a percentage of each amount requested by the Contractor or otherwise to be disbursed under this Work Agreement, which percentage shall be equal to the Allowance divided by the amount of the Final Costs (after deducting from the Final Costs any amounts expended in connection with the preparation of the Construction Drawings, and the cost of all other Allowance Items incurred prior to the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements), and Tenant shall be solely responsible for any Over-Allowance Amount. If, after the Final Costs have been initially determined, the costs relating to the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements shall change, any additional costs for such design and construction in excess of the Final Costs shall be added to the Over-Allowance Amount and the Final Costs, and Landlord’s reimbursement percentage, shall be recalculated in accordance with the terms of the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, construction of the Tenant Improvements shall not commence until Tenant has procured and delivered to Landlord a copy of all Permits for the applicable Tenant Improvements.
(b) Construction Requirements.
(i) Landlord’s General Conditions for Tenant’s Agents and Tenant Improvement Work. Construction of the Tenant Improvements shall comply with the following: (A) the Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in strict accordance with the Approved Working Drawings and Landlord’s then-current published construction guidelines, which may be obtained from Landlord; (B) Tenant’s Agents shall submit schedules of all work relating to the Tenant Improvements to Landlord and Landlord shall, within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof, inform Tenant’s Agents of any reasonable changes which are necessary thereto, and Tenant’s Agents shall adhere to such corrected schedule; and (C) Tenant shall abide by all commercially reasonable rules made by Landlord’s Building manager with respect to the use of freight, loading dock and service elevators, any required shutdown of utilities (including life-safety systems), storage of materials, coordination of work with the contractors of Landlord or other tenants, and any other matter in connection with this Work Agreement,
including, without limitation, the construction of the Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall pay an oversight and supervisory fee (the “Supervision Fee”) to Landlord in an amount equal to $1.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises (i.e., $16,943.00).
(ii) Indemnity. Tenant’s indemnity of Landlord as set forth in the Lease shall also apply with respect to any and all costs, losses, damages, injuries and liabilities related in any way to any act or omission of Tenant or Tenant’s Agents, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them relating to the construction of the Tenant Improvements, or in connection with Tenant’s non-payment of any amount arising out of the Tenant Improvements and/or Landlord’s disapproval of all or any portion of any request for payment. Such indemnity by Tenant, as set forth in the Lease, shall also apply with respect to any and all costs, losses, damages, injuries and liabilities related in any way to Landlord’s performance of any ministerial acts reasonably necessary (A) to permit Tenant to complete the Tenant Improvements, or (B) to enable Tenant to obtain any building permit or certificate of occupancy for the Premises.
(iii) Requirements of Tenant’s Agents. Each of Tenant’s Agents shall guarantee to Tenant and for the benefit of Landlord that the portion of the Tenant Improvements for which it is responsible shall be free from any defects in workmanship and materials for a period of not less than one (1) year from the date of completion thereof.
