On May 9, 2019, Clearfield, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Company’s lease agreement dated September 9, 2014 with First Industrial, L.P. relating to its headquarters at 7050 Winnetka Avenue North, Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. Pursuant to the First Amendment, the leased premises was expanded to include an additional 14,263 square feet of primarily warehouse space from and after June 30, 2019. The First Amendment also changed the schedule for base rent from and after June 30, 2019, resulting in an increase in base rent of approximately $130,000 on an annualized basis due to the expansion. The Company will have the same termination option over the expansion space as it has over the currently leased space; however, the termination fee was increased by $35,000 through the First Amendment.

 

The foregoing summary of the First Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
