Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 8, 2015, Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc. (“Ultragenyx” or the “Company”) entered into a Lease Agreement (the “Lease”) with Marina Boulevard Property, LLC (“Marina”). Pursuant to the Lease, the Company agreed to lease from Marina approximately 63,048 square feet of office space at a property located at 5000 Marina Boulevard, Brisbane, California 94005 (the “Premises”). The term of the Lease will commence on May 1, 2016, or on an earlier date subject to the occurrence of certain events described in the Lease, and it expires after 122 months. The Company has the option to renew the Lease for two additional five-year periods. The base monthly rent for the Premises under the Lease for months one through twelve is approximately $170,230 (or $2.70 per square foot), which amount shall increase periodically in accordance with the terms of the Lease. Subject to certain conditions in the Lease, monthly base rent on the Premises will be abated for the second through eleventh months of the term of the Lease. In the event of a default by the Company, the unamortized amount of abated rent would become immediately due and payable to Marina. Marina will pay for up to approximately $3.5 million of improvements to the Premises, and Ultragenyx has delivered to Marina a letter of credit of approximately $1.4 million as security for the Lease.

A copy of the Lease will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2015.
