Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On January 10, 2019, Energy Recovery, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an industrial lease (the “Lease”) with FS Clay, LLC (the “Landlord”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to lease approximately 25,200 square feet of to be constructed office and warehouse space and approximately 4.5 acres of yard space in Katy, TX for a new commercial development center.
The Company’s monthly base rent obligation is approximately $26,000 for the first year of the Lease and increases three percent annually thereafter. In addition, the Company will pay its share of operating expenses, which is currently estimated to be approximately $12,000 per month.
Pursuant to the terms of the Lease, the commencement date for the Lease is the earlier to occur of the date the Company takes possession of the newly constructed office and warehouse space and ten days after the date of substantial completion of the office and warehouse space. The initial term of the Lease is one hundred twenty (120) months after the commencement date and the Company has two options to extend the Lease by an additional five year term, which must be exercised by written notice at least six months prior to the end of the relevant term. The Lease contains customary provisions for real property leases of this type, including provisions allowing the Landlord to terminate the Lease if the Company fails to remedy a breach of any of its obligations under the Lease within specified time periods.
The foregoing description of the Lease is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the Lease, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference into this Item 1.01.
