Effective as of January 2, 2025, Oncocyte Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Amendment to and Waiver of Right to Extend Original Lease (the “Amendment”), dated as of December 26, 2024, with Induce Biologics USA, Inc.

Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, among other things: (a) the Company and Induce agreed that (i) upon Cushing and Induce each signing the Replacement Lease (as defined below), all rights to extend the term of the Original Lease were terminated and (ii) the Original Lease shall expire on October 31, 2027, and as between Cushing and Induce, the Original Lease was replaced and superseded in its entirety by the Office Lease Agreement, dated December 26, 2024, by and between Induce, as tenant, and Cushing, as landlord (the “Replacement Lease”); and (b) Cushing and the Company agreed that, provided the Company is not in default under any of the terms and conditions of the Original Lease that is continuing beyond any and all applicable notice and cure periods, then, commencing on July 1, 2025 and continuing on the first day of each calendar month thereafter, the letter of credit in the amount of $1,700,000 (the “Letter of Credit Amount”) that the Company delivered to Cushing pursuant to the Original Lease (as revised pursuant to Cushing’s Consent to Sublease, dated September 12, 2023 (the “Consent”)) shall be reduced by an amount equal to $60,714.29 on each such date, until the Letter of Credit Amount is fully reduced.
