Rhea-AI Filing Summary

AnaptysBio, Inc. entered into a sublease agreement with First Tracks Biotherapeutics covering approximately 45,057 rentable square feet at 10770 Wateridge Circle in San Diego, space that AnaptysBio leases under an existing master lease.

The sublease began on June 15, 2026 and runs for 12 months, with First Tracks paying the same monthly Basic Rent and Additional Rent that AnaptysBio owes under the master lease, plus charges for any extra services it requests. AnaptysBio remains responsible to the master landlord for all lease obligations while First Tracks agrees to comply with master lease terms.

First Tracks may renew the sublease after the initial term for a period lasting until the earlier of April 4, 2028 or 12 months from the renewal start, and it can terminate at any time with at least three months’ written notice. The sublease is subordinate to the master lease and automatically ends if AnaptysBio’s master lease tenancy or possession ends.

Material Definitive Agreement regulatory
"Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement."
A material definitive agreement is a legally binding contract that creates major, long‑term obligations or rights for a company, such as loans, asset sales, mergers, or supplier deals. Think of it like a mortgage or lease for a business: it can change future cash flow, risk and control, so investors watch these agreements closely because they can materially affect a company’s value, financial health and stock price.
Sublease Agreement financial
"entered into a Sublease Agreement (the “Sublease”) with First Tracks"
Master Lease financial
"pursuant to the Lease dated May 4, 2020, as amended... (collectively, the “Master Lease”)."
A master lease is a single, overarching lease agreement that covers multiple properties or assets and sets the main terms for how they will be used, paid for, and maintained—like a master key that opens many doors at once. It matters to investors because it shapes where cash flows come from, who bears operating costs and risks, and how easy it is to sell, finance, or change the assets; a strong master lease can make income more predictable, while a restrictive one can limit flexibility and increase risk.
Additional Rent financial
"plus Additional Rent (as defined in the Master Lease) due under the Master Lease"
Termination Option financial
"other than in connection with the exercise of its Termination Option (as defined in the Master Lease)"

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 15, 2026, AnaptysBio, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a Sublease Agreement (the “Sublease”) with First Tracks Biotherapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“First Tracks”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sublease to First Tracks approximately 45,057 rentable square feet of space located at 10770 Wateridge Circle, San Diego, California 92121 (the “Premises”). The Premises are currently leased by the Company from Wateridge Property Owner, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Master Landlord”), pursuant to the Lease dated May 4, 2020, as amended by the First Amendment to Lease Agreement dated April 5, 2021 (collectively, the “Master Lease”).

The term of the Sublease commenced on June 15, 2026, and continues for a period of twelve (12) months from commencement (the “Sublease Term”). First Tracks has the option to extend the Sublease Term for a renewal period commencing on the first day following the expiration of the initial Sublease Term and continuing until the earlier of (a) April 4, 2028, or (b) twelve months from the commencement of the renewal term, subject to delivery of written notice to the Company at least three months prior to the expiration of the initial Sublease Term. First Tracks also has the right to terminate the Sublease at any time during the Sublease Term upon at least three months’ prior written notice to the Company.

Under the Sublease, First Tracks is obligated to pay as monthly rent an amount equal to the monthly Basic Rent (as designated in the Master Lease) owed by the Company under the Master Lease, plus Additional Rent (as defined in the Master Lease) due under the Master Lease, payable in advance on the first day of each month during the Sublease Term. First Tracks is also responsible for any charges actually incurred for services requested by First Tracks that the Company is liable to the Master Landlord for under the Master Lease. The Company remains responsible for the timely payment of Basic Rent and Additional Rent under the Master Lease and for otherwise complying with its obligations under the Master Lease except to the extent assumed by First Tracks.

The Sublease is subordinate to the Master Lease, and First Tracks has agreed to comply with the applicable terms and provisions of the Master Lease as incorporated into the Sublease.

The Company has covenanted that it will not surrender or terminate the Master Lease prior to its scheduled expiration date without the consent of First Tracks (other than in connection with the exercise of its Termination Option (as defined in the Master Lease)), and will not amend or modify the Master Lease in any manner that would materially and adversely affect First Tracks’ rights or obligations under the Sublease. If the Company’s tenancy or right to possession under the Master Lease terminates for any reason, the Sublease will immediately cease and terminate.

The foregoing description of the Sublease does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Sublease, a copy of which will be filed with the Company’s transition report on Form 10-K/T for the transition period from January 1, 2026 to June 30, 2026.
