Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 13, 2018, FormFactor, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Seventh Amendment (the “Seventh Amendment”) dated as of June 5, 2018 to its Lease Agreement (as amended, the “Lease”) dated April 2, 1999 with Nimbus Center LLC (the “Landlord”), as the ultimate successor to Spieker Properties, L.P., under which the Company agreed to, among other things, (i) extend the term of its lease of certain space located at 9100 SW Gemini Drive (“Building 6”), 9500 SW Gemini Drive (“Building 3”), 9203 SW Gemini Drive (“Building 9”) and 9000 SW Gemini Drive (“Building 8”) in Beaverton, Oregon, (ii) modify the rent for the leased premises, (iii) provide the Company with options to lease expansion space in Building 3 or Building 9, provided such space becomes available, (iv) provide the Company with two consecutive options to renew the Lease for five years each and (v) provide the Company with a right of first offer for available space in Building 8 and Building 5.

 

As amended, the term of the Lease expires on December 31, 2027, subject to the Company’s renewal option. The monthly base rent payments set by the Seventh Amendment will commence on October 1, 2018 and increase yearly thereafter through December 31, 2027. The Company’s option to lease expansion space in Building 3 or Building 9 covers approximately 46,000 square feet and is exercisable through July 15, 2018. Any space over which the Company exercises its expansion option will be delivered between April 1, 2019 and September 30, 2019. If the Landlord is unable to deliver the expansion space, the Company may terminate the Seventh Amendment. The Company’s right of first offer for space in Building 8 and Building 5 that becomes available for lease continues until December 31, 2025, unless the term of the lease has been further extended. The Seventh Amendment also provides for an alteration budget of approximately $1.3 million.

 

The above description of the Seventh Amendment is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms and provisions of the full Seventh Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
