(Xxxx Xxxxxxx Building)
This Fourth Amendment to Lease ("Fourth Amendment") is entered into as of November 10, 2022 (the "Effective Date"), by and between JPPF 1155 BATTERY, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Lessor") and XXXX XXXXXXX & CO., a Delaware corporation ("Lessee"), with reference to the following facts:
X. Xxxxxx (as successor in interest to Blue Jeans Equity West) and Lessee are currently parties to that certain Lease, dated as of July 31, 1979 ("Original Lease"), as amended by: (i) that certain Amendment to Lease (Xxxx Xxxxxxx Building), dated as of January 1, 1998 ("First Amendment"), (ii) that certain Second Amendment to Xxxxx (Xxxx Xxxxxxx Building), dated as of November 12, 2009 ("Second Amendment"), and (iii) that certain Third Amendment to Lease (Xxxx Xxxxxxx Building), dated as of August 1, 2011 ("Third Amendment") (the Original Lease as amended by the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, Third Amendment and this Fourth Amendment shall collectively be referred to herein as the "Lease"), covering those certain premises (the "Premises") in the Xxxx Xxxxxxx Building (the "Building") located in that certain complex commonly known as Levi's Plaza ("Levi's Plaza") in San Francisco, California, all as more particularly described in the Lease.
B. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease, Lessee has successive options to extend the term for Option Terms extending through December 31, 2079. Lessee has previously exercised its first two of its options to extend the term, the first as part of the First Amendment (which extended the term until December 31, 2012) and the second as part of the Second Amendment (which extended the term until December 31, 2022). Pursuant to that certain Exercise of Option letter dated June 15, 2021 ("Option Letter"), Lessee properly exercised its third Option to extend the term of the Lease.
C. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Second Amendment, Lessor and Xxxxxx have now agreed that the Third Extended Term (hereafter defined) shall be for a period of twelve (12) years through December 31, 2034, but that the future options shall not extend the existing outside expiration date of December 31, 2079. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Lease, Lessor and Lessee agree that from and after January 1, 2023, Lessee shall have five (5) remaining Options to extend the term of the Lease, with the first four (4) such remaining Options each being for a term of ten (10) years and the fifth (5th) remaining Option being for a term of five (5) years, otherwise subject to and in accordance with the terms of Paragraph 3 of the Second Amendment.
X. Xxxxxx and Lessee are now entering into this Fourth Amendment to set forth the economic terms for the Third Extended Term in lieu of determining Base Rent for the Third Extended Term pursuant to Paragraph 4(c) of the Second Amendment.
E. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meaning as ascribed to them in the Original Lease, as amended by the First Amendment, the Second Amendment and the Third Amendment.
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, Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx agree as follows:
1. Premises. Effective as of January 1, 2023, the square footage of the Premises shall be increased from THREE HUNDRED FIFTY-FOUR THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED NINETY-SEVEN (354,797) rentable square feet to THREE HUNDRED SIXTY-SIX THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED NINETEEN (366,819) rentable square feet as determined in accordance with 2017 BOMA for Office Buildings: Standard Methods of Measurement (ANSI/BOMA Z65.1—2017) (“2017 BOMA Standard”). Lessor and Xxxxxx acknowledge that such increase is a result of a re-measurement of the Premises and not the result of an expansion or addition of space. Lessor and Xxxxxx further acknowledge that the Premises shall not be subject to further remeasurement for any future extended term. The Base Rent and all other charges under the Lease shall remain payable as provided therein with respect to the Premises for the period prior to January 1, 2023.
2. Extension of Term. In light of Lessee's timely and proper exercise of its third option to extend the term of the Lease pursuant to Paragraph 6.1 of the Original Lease (as modified by Paragraph 3 of the Second Amendment), Lessor and Lessee hereby agree that, notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, the term of the Lease is hereby extended to December 31, 2034, with the period commencing January 1, 2023 and expiring on December 31, 2034 constituting the "Third Extended Term".

Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises." Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in the Lease, Lessor and Lessee hereby agree that (i) Lessee shall have the right to perform a CASp inspection in its sole and absolute discretion, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, provided that if Lessee elects to perform a CASp inspection of the Premises, Lessee will provide prior written notice thereof to Lessor, and (ii) no presumption shall apply with respect to the party responsible to make any repairs or modifications necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards that are noted in any CASp report, and the terms of the Lease shall exclusively govern and control with respect thereto.

Xxxxxx agrees to indemnify and hold Xxxxxx harmless from all claims of Xxxxxx’s Broker and any other brokers claiming to have represented Lessor in connection with this Fourth Amendment. Lessor shall be solely responsible for all commissions payable to Xxxxxx's Broker pursuant to a separate written agreement. Lessee hereby represents to Lessor that Xxxxxx has dealt with no broker in connection with this Fourth Amendment other than Xxxxx Xxxx LaSalle ("Lessee's Broker"). Lessee shall be solely responsible for all commissions payable to Xxxxxx's Broker pursuant to a separate written agreement; provided, however, Xxxxxx agrees to reimburse Lessee for commissions actually paid by Xxxxxx to Xxxxxx’s Broker in connection with this Fourth Amendment up to a maximum of $3,881,190.00. Such reimbursement shall be paid within ten (10) days following Xxxxxx’s receipt of evidence of Xxxxxx’s payment therefore. Subject to Xxxxxx’s obligation to reimburse Xxxxxx as provided above in this Section 6, Xxxxxx agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from all claims of Xxxxxx’s Broker and any other brokers claiming to have represented Xxxxxx in connection with this Fourth Amendment.

11. Miscellaneous. Time is of the essence hereof. Neither the Fourth Amendment nor the Lease may be amended, nor any provision hereof waived, except in writing. This Fourth Amendment shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto, and their respective permitted successors in interest and assigns (which for Xxxxxx's purposes shall be subject to the provisions of Article 11 of the Original Lease and Paragraph 12 of the Second Amendment).
12. Interpretation. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, (i) the plural and singular numbers shall each be deemed to include the other; (ii) the masculine, feminine, and neuter genders shall each be deemed to include the others; (iii) "shall," "will," or "agrees" are mandatory, and "may" is permissive; (iv) "or" is not exclusive; (v) "includes" and "including" are not limiting; and (vi) "days" means calendar days unless specifically provided otherwise.
