12. Operating Leases

399 Binney Street

In December 2017, the Company executed an operating lease agreement for 44,336 square feet of office and laboratory space at 399 Binney Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts, which was increased to 44,807 square feet in January 2018 ("399 Binney Street"). Pursuant to the terms of the operating lease agreement, as further amended in November 2019 and September 2020, the operating lease for 399 Binney Street was previously scheduled to expire on April 30, 2029.

On June 3, 2025, the Company and ARE MA Region No. 58 LLC ("399 Binney Street Landlord") executed another amendment to the operating lease for 399 Binney Street, as amended, pursuant to which termination was accelerated to July 3, 2025. The Company continued to be responsible for rent and other obligations under the operating lease for 399 Binney Street, as amended, through July 3, 2025, at which point such obligations ceased and the operating lease was terminated. In consideration for entry into the amendment on June 3, 2025, the Company also paid the 399 Binney Street Landlord a termination payment of $2.5 million (the "Termination Payment").

Although the Company was obligated to pay rent for the leased premises at 399 Binney Street through July 3, 2025 and the accelerated termination date was July 3, 2025, as agreed between Company and the 399 Binney Street Landlord, the Company had committed to terminating the operating lease for 399 Binney Street, as amended, as of June 3, 2025. Furthermore, the Company's access to the premises was also terminated as of June 3, 2025. Therefore, the Company accounted for termination of the operating lease at 399 Binney Street, as amended, during the three months ended June 30, 2025. In connection therewith, the Company removed the operating lease assets and liabilities from its consolidated balance sheet as of termination, or June 3, 2025, and also recognized the impact of the Termination Payment at such time.

The following table summarizes the adjustments above and reconciles to the net amount as of June 3, 2025:

Building 300 at One Kendall Square

On June 3, 2025, the Company executed an operating lease agreement for 300 OKS with ARE MA Region No. 59 LLC ("300 OKS Landlord"), an affiliate of the 399 Binney Street Landlord. Pursuant to the terms of the operating lease agreement, the Company agreed to lease 12,190 square feet of office space through February 28, 2030. In consideration for entry into the operating lease agreement, the Company also paid the 300 OKS Landlord a relocation payment of $3.5 million (the "Relocation Payment").

Although the Company was only obligated to start paying rent under the operating lease agreement at 300 OKS on July 3, 2025, the Company could physically access and benefit from the space upon lease execution on June 3, 2025. Therefore, the Company recorded an operating lease asset and liability during the three months ended June 30, 2025, which included $0.5 million from the net impact of

terminating the lease at 399 Binney Street, as amended, on June 3, 2025. The operating lease agreement for 300 OKS expires in February 2030 with no renewal options.

About Leases Disclosures

Lease disclosures under ASC 842 provide a comprehensive view of a company's leased asset portfolio, including the split between operating and finance leases, discount rates used to present-value future payments, and the maturity schedule of lease obligations. This section reveals a significant source of off-balance-sheet commitments that were largely hidden before the current standard.

Key signals: the weighted-average discount rate affects the size of recorded lease liabilities — a higher rate reduces the reported obligation, so compare the chosen rate against the company's incremental borrowing rate. The operating versus finance lease mix affects both EBITDA and operating income presentation. Watch the maturity table for concentration risk: large payment cliffs in specific years may create cash flow pressure. Variable lease payments excluded from the liability measurement represent real obligations that do not appear on the balance sheet. Compare total lease costs against prior-year operating lease expense to assess the true economic burden.
