Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On July 31, 2015, MacroGenics, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a transaction pursuant to which it agreed to lease a building consisting of approximately 122,600 square feet of space in Rockville, Maryland, to use for its primary headquarters, comprising mixed-use office, laboratory and manufacturing space. The transaction consisted of an assignment and assumption of the rights and interests of J. Craig Venter Institute, Inc. ("JCVI"), under a previously existing lease agreement with BMR-Medical Center Drive LLC ("BMR"), as well as a concurrently executed amendment to the assigned lease by and between the Company and BMR.
The Company expects to take possession of the leased premises and commence paying rent on January 1, 2016. The term of the lease is for seven years with two options to extend the term, each for an additional term of seven years. Under the terms of the new leasing arrangement, the Company will receive upfront payments of $2.1 million from JCVI and $3.1 million from BMR and will acquire certain personal property including office furniture, laboratory equipment and a generator. The rent for each year of the initial seven-year term, which does not include operating costs and property taxes for which the Company will be responsible, is as follows:
