ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

Effective July 1, 2021, Revance Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) and 1222 Demonbreun, LP (the “Landlord”) entered into the Second Amendment to Lease (the “Amendment”), which amends the office lease agreement dated November 19, 2020, as amended by the Amendment to Lease dated January 4, 2021 (collectively, the “Lease”). Pursuant to the Lease, the Company leased 40,661 square feet for office space and a marketing and experience center (the “Initial Premises”) in Nashville, Tennessee, which serve as the Company’s headquarters. The Amendment provides for the expansion of the Premises to include an additional 30,591 square feet (the “Expansion Premises”).

The Lease with respect to the Expansion Premises pursuant to the Amendment shall commence on the earlier to occur of: (a) the Company’s occupancy of any portion of the Expansion Premises; and (b) October 1, 2022 (the “Expansion Commencement Date”). The Amendment provides that the term of the Lease, which currently ends November 30, 2033, shall be extended as needed so that it expires 147 months following the Expansion Commencement Date. The Company and Landlord will enter into a separate agreement confirming the Expansion Commencement Date, the expiration of the Lease term and the rent schedule for the Initial Premises after November 30, 2033.

The Landlord waived the Company’s basic rent for the first three months following the Expansion Commencement Date. Following the three-month free rent period, the Company will pay basic rent of approximately $92,000 for the next nine-month period, payable in monthly installments. The rental rate per square foot and corresponding basic monthly rental amount will increase at the end of the first 12 months of the Expansion Commencement Date and every 12 months thereafter. Beginning on the Expansion Commencement Date, the Company’s additional rent amount will increase to account for the Company’s additional share of the operating expenses and taxes and other applicable levies associated with the Expansion Premises. In addition, the Amendment requires an additional cash security deposit upon execution.

Beginning on December 1, 2033, the monthly basic rent of the Initial Premises will be the same basic rent per rentable square foot as the Expansion Premises.

The Landlord will contribute an additional $2.3 million toward tenant improvements for the Expansion Premises. In connection with the Expansion Premises, the Company will maintain a supplemental letter of credit for the benefit of the Landlord in an amount of approximately $1.5 million, which amount is subject to reduction over time.

The description of the Amendment contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “8-K”) does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2021.
