  Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On April 17, 2019, Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“the Company”) entered into a new lease for its Pasadena, California corporate headquarters.  The 91 month office building lease between the Company and 177 Colorado Owner, LLC is for approximately 24,000 square feet of office space located at 177 E. Colorado Blvd, Pasadena, California, and this lease will replace the Company’s current corporate headquarters office lease.  The increased capacity of this new office space compared to the Company’s current corporate headquarters will accommodate increased personnel as the Company’s pipeline of drug candidates expands and moves closer to market.

 

Lease payments will begin on the earlier of November 1, 2019 or when the Company first commences to conduct business in the premises and are estimated to total approximately $8.8 million over the term.  The Company expects to pay approximately $4.5 million for leasehold improvements, net of tenant improvement allowances, beginning in the Company’s third quarter of fiscal year 2019.  Pursuant to the lease, within twelve to fifteen months of the expiration of the term, the Company has the option to extend the lease for one additional five-year term, with certain annual increases in base rent.

 

The foregoing description of the lease agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the lease agreement, which will be filed in a subsequent periodic report.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
