WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant are parties to the above referenced Lease for Premises located at 2741 16th Street, San Francisco, California 94107 (the “Premises”); and

WHEREAS, capitalized terms which are not otherwise defined herein shall be deemed to have the same meanings herein as are ascribed to such terms in the Lease.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that the Lease is amended as follows.

AGREEMENT

1.    Landlord’s Contribution to San Francisco Water Department Fire Service Connection Fee. Landlord hereby agrees that upon the presentation by Tenant to Landlord of an invoice and payment by Tenant for the connection of fire services to the Premises, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant up to Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) of the SF Water Department (SFWD) Fire Service water connection fee (specifically for engineering and installation of the fire services to the building). All other costs and expenses associated with the fire service connection shall be borne by Tenant.

2.    Cost Sharing for Upgraded HVAC System.

Article 16 of the Lease provides in part as follows:

“……..If the one 15-ton HVAC unit serving the Premises that it is not being replaced as part of Tenant’s Required Work requires replacement during the Lease Term, (and provided such replacement is not necessitated by (x) Tenant’s failure to perform reasonable periodic maintenance of such item or (y) Tenant’s misuse of such item), Landlord and Tenant shall cooperate in good faith to determine the best suitable replacement for such unit; in connection therewith, the parties will attempt to identify a substantially similar replacement unit, and neither party shall have the right to require that the capacity, quality or size of such unit be upgraded as a part of such replacement, unless the party requiring such upgrade agrees to bear any increased cost associated with the acquisition of an upgraded unit compared to the acquisition of a reasonably similar substitute unit (however, if applicable law requires an upgrade, Tenant will bear the cost of such upgrade as described herein). Upon determining a mutually agreeable replacement unit, Landlord and Tenant shall share the cost of such replacement as follows: 2/3 Landlord 1/3 Tenant (other than any increased cost associated with an upgrade requested by Tenant or Landlord, as described above), provided, however, that if, as described above, the replacement in question is necessitated by Tenant’s failure to perform reasonable periodic maintenance of the unit or Tenant’s misuse of the unit, Tenant will be responsible for the cost of such replacement.”

 

1


Landlord and Tenant have now agreed that Tenant will replace the 15-ton HVAC unit with an upgraded HVAC system, described in Exhibit A, attached hereto, and that Landlord will reimburse Tenant for $31,836 of the cost thereof upon the presentation by Tenant to Landlord of an invoice and reasonably acceptable back-up documentation evidencing the completion, final governmental approval and payment by Tenant for the new HVAC system. Throughout the Lease Term, Tenant shall be responsible at its sole cost and expense for all maintenance and repair required of the new system and shall leave the system in place, fully maintained and in good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. at the end of the Term.

3.    Status of Lease. Except as set forth herein, the Lease shall remain unamended and in full force and effect.

If any provision of the Lease conflicts with the terms of this Fifth Amendment, then the provisions of this Fifth Amendment shall control.

4.    Representations and Warranties of Tenant. As a material inducement to Landlord to enter into this Fifth Amendment, Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that, as of the date of this Fifth Amendment, to Tenant’s knowledge, there are no defaults by Landlord or Tenant under the Lease, and no circumstance has occurred which, but for the expiration of any applicable grace period, would constitute an event of default by Landlord or Tenant under the Lease.
