On November 23, 2020, Organovo Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into two Lease Agreements (the “Lease Agreements”), by and between Company and San Diego Inspire 1, LLC, pursuant to which the Company will temporarily lease approximately 3,212 square feet of office space (the “Temporary Lease”) located at 11585 Sorrento Valley Road, Suite 106, San Diego, California 92121 (the “Temporary Premises”), and will permanently lease approximately 8,051 square feet of office space (the “Permanent Lease”) at 11555 Sorrento Valley Road, Suite 100, San Diego, California 92121 (the “Permanent Premises”) once the tenant improvements for the Permanent Premises have been completed and it is ready for occupancy.

The Temporary Lease commences on November 27, 2020 and is intended to serve as the Temporary Premises for approximately seven months, and is projected to terminate on June 30, 2021, provided that the Permanent Premises are completed and ready for Company’s occupancy. In addition, under the Temporary Lease Agreement, the Company will be required to pay a base rent of approximately $13,008.60 per month, for the seven months of the Temporary Lease term. The Company will also be required pay its share of operating expenses, taxes and any other expenses payable under the Temporary Lease Agreement.

 

The Permanent Lease is projected to commence on July 1, 2021 and is intended to serve as the Permanent Premises for approximately sixty-two months, expiring on August 31, 2026. In addition, under the Permanent Lease Agreement, the Company has an option to extend the term of Lease Agreement for a five-year period.
