10. Commitments and contingencies
Lease commitments
The Company’s lease portfolio primarily comprises operating leases for office, laboratory, and manufacturing space. These leases contain various rent abatement periods, after which they require monthly lease payments that may be subject to annual increases throughout the lease term. Certain leases include options to extend the term. The renewal option is considered in the remaining lease term for the lease only when the Company is reasonably certain it will renew the lease. Certain leases provide the Company with the right to make tenant improvements, including the addition of laboratory space or build-out of manufacturing capabilities, and include a lease incentive allowance.
In June 2022, the Company entered into a lease agreement for 79,565 square feet of office, laboratory, and manufacturing space located in Bothell, Washington. The initial term of the lease expires in February 2039, withthe option to extend the lease for up to three additional five-year terms. The lease agreement also provides for up to $19.9 million for reimbursement of tenant improvements, as well as an additional $8.0 million loan for tenant improvements, available at the Company’s election (the Tenant Improvement Loan). The Company elected to receive the Tenant Improvement Loan in the second quarter of 2024 and is obligated to repay to the landlord monthly over the initial term of the lease with interest at a rate of 6.5% per year. As of June 30, 2026, $0.4 million was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $6.8 million was included in other non-current liabilities. The Company is obligated to pay base rent of approximately $68.8 million over the initial term of the lease. In accordance with the lease agreement, the Company has obtained a letter of credit in the amount of $1.6 million.
