Leases

On February 7, 2025, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Lease Agreement with WCS – 377 Plantation Street, Inc. (the “Landlord”), pursuant to which the Company’s lease of its Plantation Street Facility was terminated. Following the termination of the lease, the Company is no longer party to any leases for office space or equipment. Upon termination of the lease, the Company moved its headquarters to 95 Sawyer Road, Suite 110, Waltham, MA, which is office space leased by Fortress. Fortress allocates a small portion of its rent and office related costs to the Company on a monthly basis.
