Sublease for Office Space
On April 6, 2018, Nightstar, Inc. (NSI), a subsidiary of Nightstar Therapeutics plc, entered into a sublease with Fractyl Laboratories, Inc.
(Landlord) for its new corporate headquarters in Waltham, Massachusetts. The sublease provides NSI with approximately 12,000 rentable square feet for general office use.
The sublease became effective on April 26, 2018 (the Sublease Commencement Date) upon the receipt of the superior landlords consent
(the Superior Landlord Consent) and will expire in March 2021. The rent for the office space will commence 90 days after the Sublease Commencement Date. The initial rent for the office space will be approximately $209,000 per annum and
will increase every year by approximately 6%. NSI provided the Landlord with a letter of credit for approximately $58,000 as security for the lease.
The
sublease contains customary provisions relating to default, termination and other events that may lead to a suspension of the parties obligations. NSI will be able to enter into a direct lease with the superior landlord at market rates if the
sublease is subject to termination as a result of the Landlords default in payments to the superior landlord. The Landlord has deposited certain funds in an escrow account that may be periodically released to NSI upon the occurrence of a
payment default by Landlord to the superior landlord or the entry into a direct lease between NSI and the superior landlord.
Cash Balance as of
March 31, 2018
Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2018 were $122.3 million, compared to $129.4 million as of
December 31, 2017.
