Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On March 23, 2021, TCR2 Therapeutics Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Lease Agreement (the “Rockville Lease”) with ARE-Maryland No. 31, LLC (the “Rockville Landlord”) for office and laboratory space located at 9950 Medical Center Drive, Rockville, Maryland (the “Rockville Premises”). Under the terms of the Rockville Lease, the Company will lease approximately 85,000 square feet at the Rockville Premises, which will serve as a manufacturing facility for the Company’s lead product candidate gavo-cel and its other cell therapies. The Rockville Lease is expected to commence on May 1, 2021 (the “Commencement Date”), and the Company’s obligation to pay rent will start on July 1, 2021 (the “Rent Commencement Date”). The initial term of the Rockville Lease is fifteen years following the Rent Commencement Date. The base rent under the Rockville Lease is $39.78 per rentable square foot per year during the first year of the term, which is subject to scheduled annual increases of 2% through June 30, 2024, plus certain costs, operating expenses and taxes. Commencing on July 1, 2024, the base rent under the Rockville Lease will be increased to $49.12 per rentable square foot per year and will be subject to scheduled annual increases of 3% through the remainder of the initial term, plus certain costs, operating expenses and taxes. In addition, the Rockville Landlord will contribute $140.00 per rentable square foot toward the cost of construction and tenant improvements for the Rockville Premises.  In connection with the improvements, reduced initial base rent, and other consideration, the Company paid the Rockville Landlord $3,750,000 upon execution of the Rockville Lease. The Company has the option to extend the Rockville Lease for two successive five-year terms.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the Rockville Lease do not purport to be complete and each is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Rockville Lease which will be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2021.
