Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 11, 2007, ViaCell, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a First Lease Amendment (the
“Amendment”) with Dugan Financing LLC (“Dugan Financing”), the landlord for the Company’s existing
laboratory and office space in Hebron, Kentucky. The Amendment amends the Lease Agreement (the
“Lease”) dated as of April 1, 2002 between the Company and Dugan Financing and adds approximately
8,250 square feet to the Company’s existing laboratory and office space. The initial lease term on
the additional space is September 1, 2007 to August 31, 2010. The Company has an option to extend
the lease term of the additional space until May 31, 2012, the expiration date of the initial term
of the original Lease, and then has the option to extend the lease term of the additional space,
along with the original space, for two successive five-year terms under the lease extension options
set forth in the Lease. The Company plans to make improvements to the additional space and Dugan
Financing has agreed to reimburse the Company for up to $12,375 of the costs it incurs for such
improvements.
The Company’s rental payments for the additional space are $5,568.75 per month from September
1, 2007 to August 31, 2008 and $5,740.63 per month from September 1, 2008 to August 31, 2010.
Except as modified by the Amendment, all of the terms of the Lease will continue in full force and
effect.
A copy of the Amendment is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated into this
current report by reference.
