Licensee shall accept the Licensed Premises in its “as-is” condition and SmartLabs shall have no obligation to alter, repair or otherwise prepare the Licensed Premises for Licensee’s use or to pay for, or provide any, improvements to the Licensed Premises. Licensee shall not use the Licensed Premises for any use other than the foregoing, including but not limited to medical care or human clinical trials, without first obtaining written permission from SmartLabs, which SmartLabs may withhold in its sole discretion. Licensee warrants that its use of the Licensed Premises shall at all times comply with all applicable governmental rules, laws and regulations.

Occupants. The License shall only grant Licensee, and no more than forty-four (44) of Licensee’s members, employees or agents (collectively, “Occupants”), access to the Licensed Premises; provided, however, that SmartLabs may grant access to additional Occupants (“Additional Occupants”) as set forth in Section 3 below. All Occupants and Additional Occupants shall abide by, keep and observe all of SmartLabs’ Rules and Regulations. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, prior to having access to the Licensed Premises, all Occupants and any Additional Occupants, must first complete and pass any Environmental Health and Safety (“EH&S”) training requested by SmartLabs.

License Subject to Lease. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall, at all times, remain subject to the Lease and the rights of the Landlord under the Lease. Upon Landlord’s termination of the Lease, this Agreement shall also be deemed terminated. SmartLabs shall use reasonable efforts to provide Licensee with reasonable advance notice prior to the termination of the Lease. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event this Agreement is terminated prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below), License shall be given a reasonable period of time to remove its personal property from the Licensed Premises, and otherwise vacate and surrender the Licensed Premises, and during such period, Licensee (i) shall be given access to the Licensed Premises for purposes of removing its personal property and otherwise complying with the termination provisions set forth herein, and (ii) shall not be deemed to be holding over after termination of this Agreement, regardless of whether such period extends beyond the date of the termination of this Agreement.

Term and Termination.

Term. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with this Section 2, the term (“Term”) of this Agreement shall commence on April 15, 2022 (“Term Commencement Date”) and expire on April 14, 2026 (“Expiration Date”). Under no circumstance shall SmartLabs be liable to Licensee for failure to provide access to the Licensed Premises on or before April 15, 2022; including but not limited to, failure due to an event of force majeure in each case that is outside of SmartLabs’ control including, but not limited to, strikes, work stoppages, supply-chain delays, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, government actions or prohibitions or emergencies, disruptions arising from health or safety (including, but not limited to pandemic or epidemic), nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services (collectively, a “Force Majeure”); provided, however, that if SmartLabs is unable to provide Licensee access to the Licensed Premises on or before April 15, 2022, the Term Commencement Date and Expiration Date shall be extended by the number of days SmartLabs is unable to provide access to the Licensed Premises. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Licensee be required to accept possession of the Licensed Premises prior to April 15, 2022.

Termination. SmartLabs may terminate this Agreement immediately for “cause” by

License Fee.

Base Fee. Licensee shall pay a monthly license fee equal to $200,700.00 (“License Fee”), which Licensee shall pay in advance on or before the first day of each and every month during the Term by electronic payment to SmartLabs. The License Fee shall be subject to a four percent (4%) increase upon each anniversary of the Term Commencement Date, as shown on Schedule A attached hereto.

Late Fee. If any payment of the License Fee, or any other payment due under this Agreement, is not received by SmartLabs on or before the first day of each month, or when otherwise due, Licensee shall pay to SmartLabs a late payment charge equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount of such delinquent payment, in addition to any outstanding License Fee or any other payment due under this Agreement then owing.

Additional Fees. Licensee may request that SmartLabs grant access to Additional Occupants provided that Licensee first (i) submits a written request to SmartLabs requesting Additional Occupants; (ii) Licensee receives written confirmation from SmartLabs granting access to Additional Occupants (which SmartLabs may withhold in its sole discretion); and (iii) Licensee pays, in addition to the License Fee, an amount equal to $1,500 per month for each Additional Occupant which shall be payable along with the License Fee.

Security Deposit. Licensee shall remit a Security Deposit equal to $225,760.20 (“Security Deposit”). The purpose of the Security Deposit is to guarantee the full, prompt and faithful performance by Licensee of all of the terms, conditions, covenants, agreements, warranties and provisions of this Agreement to be performed, fulfilled or observed by Licensee hereunder, including but not limited to the payment of the License Fee and other charges. If Licensee breaches any term or condition of this Agreement, said Security Deposit or any part thereof may be used to pay any such payment or perform any obligations hereunder to be performed by the Licensee in connection with such breach, and the Licensee shall promptly replace the amount of the Security Deposit so used. Said Security Deposit may be co-mingled with the SmartLabs’ other funds, need not be kept in a separate account, and SmartLabs shall not be required to pay interest on same. SmartLabs shall return the balance of the Security Deposit to Licensee, less any amounts duly owed from Licensee to SmartLabs, within sixty (60) days after the end of Term, as extended from time to time, or earlier termination of this Agreement.

The License Fee shall cover and include the cost of the services as set forth in the Service Agreement and, unless the scope of services requested by Licensee exceed those as set forth in the Service Agreement, Licensee shall not be assessed any additional fees for services contained in the Service Agreement. The Service Agreement shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement and if there is any conflict between the covenants and representations contained in this Agreement and the Service Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail and be binding upon the parties hereto. SmartLabs shall not be liable for any failure to provide the services set forth in the Service Agreement to the extent such failure is beyond SmartLabs’ reasonable control; provided, that SmartLabs agrees to use reasonable efforts to provide replacement services to Licensee during the period that such failure continues. Licensee hereby agrees to indemnify SmartLabs for, and shall reimburse any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by SmartLabs and associated with, any damage caused by Licensee or its Occupants, or anyone claiming by, through or under Licensee, to any instrument or equipment provided by SmartLabs pursuant to the Service Agreement for common use with other licensees and/or occupants.

Common Areas. Licensee hereby acknowledges that other licensees and/or occupants are occupying or may in the future occupy other portions of the Building, other than the Lab Suite and the Office Suite. Licensee’s use of the Licensed Premises, and access to and use of the common areas and any other services in connection with the Licensed Premises or this Agreement, shall be subject to any and all Rules and Regulations reasonably promulgated by SmartLabs and/or Landlord and delivered to Licensee in writing from time to time. Licensee’s compliance with such Rules and Regulations constitutes a material inducement to SmartLabs’ willingness to enter into this Agreement; any violation thereof shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

Parking. During the Term, Licensee shall have a non-exclusive, irrevocable license to use twenty (20) unreserved parking spaces in connection with the Building (“Licensee’s Parking Spaces”). Neither SmartLabs nor Licensee shall have the right to elect to reduce its number of Licensee’s Parking Spaces and Licensee shall be responsible for the Parking Fees (defined below) for such spaces regardless of whether its Occupants use Licensee’s Parking Spaces. Licensee shall pay, in addition to the License Fee, monthly parking fees equal to the prevailing rates for the Building (“Parking Fees”) and shall pay such Parking Fees to SmartLabs at the time each License Fee payment is due.

Modifications to Licensed Premises. Licensee shall not make any modification to the Licensed Premises without SmartLabs’ prior written approval, which approval may be withheld or conditioned in SmartLabs’ sole discretion. Licensee shall bear the cost of any approved modifications to the Licensed Premises.

In the event SmartLabs or Landlord exercises the right to terminate the Lease as the result of any such fire, casualty or taking, SmartLabs shall promptly provide Licensee with a copy of the relevant termination notice and this Agreement shall terminate on the date upon which the Lease terminates.
