5. Term; Early Access

The term of this Lease (the “Term”) shall commence on that date (the “Term Commencement Date”) which is the later to occur of (i) January 1, 2009 or (ii) the day on which Landlord has delivered

possession of the Premises to Tenant. This Lease shall expire, unless earlier terminated or extended in accordance with the terms hereof, at 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2009. Each calendar year or portion thereof following the Term Commencement Date shall be defined as a “Lease Year.” At such time as Landlord has determined that the Premises are available for Tenant’s occupancy, and Tenant has paid the security deposit and delivered to Landlord certificates evidencing that Tenant is maintaining all insurance coverage required under this Lease, Landlord shall notify Tenant and Tenant shall have reasonable access to the Premises for the sole purpose of installing Tenant’s business furniture, fixtures and equipment.

(b) Additional Rent. This Lease is intended by the parties hereto to be a so-called “net” lease, to the end that the Basic Rent shall be received by Landlord net of all costs and expenses related to the Premises as set forth in this Lease, and net of Tenant’s Share, as hereinafter defined, of all Common Expenses.

All Common Expenses shall be directly attributable to the operations, maintenance, management and repair of the Property and Building and shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices, consistently applied.

(f) Periodic Payment. From time to time during the Term of this Lease, commencing on the Early Access Date, Landlord may, at Landlord’s election, xxxx Tenant from time to time for Tenant’s Share of Common Expenses actually incurred by Landlord (i.e., not billing based on estimated costs). Tenant shall pay any such Common Expenses to Landlord as Additional Rent within thirty (30) days after receipt of any such invoice. Alternatively, Landlord may from time to time reasonably estimate the amount that will be due on account of Common Expenses and xxxx Tenant monthly for the estimated amount as provided below. If Landlord elects to xxxx Common Expenses based on estimates, then commencing on the Early Access Date, Tenant shall, upon receipt of written notice from Landlord, prepay to Landlord monthly as Additional Rent, in the same manner as Basic Rent, one twelfth (1/12) of the total of all such amounts as Landlord may from time to time reasonably estimate will be payable annually by Tenant under this Paragraph 7, which prepayments shall be applied, without interest, to such amounts as actually become payable.

Within ninety (90) days after the end of the Lease Year, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written statement of Tenant’s Share of the Common Expenses for such Lease Year prepared by Landlord from Landlord’s books and records, in reasonable detail, and computed in accordance with general accounting principles consistently applied.

Landlord shall keep for a period of at least twelve (12) months after the expiration of each calendar year, accurate records and supporting documents in connection with Landlord’s annual statement of Common Expenses. Within sixty (60) days after receipt of any year-end statement referred to above, and provided Tenant is not then in default under this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to challenge the accuracy of any Common Expenses, and, if Tenant gives Landlord notice (within such 60-day period) of any such challenge (which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the particular instances in which Tenant believes such accounting to be in error), Landlord shall make Landlord’s books and supporting documents for the year in question available to Tenant and Tenant may inspect the same at Landlord’s management office at reasonable times upon Tenant’s request. No auditor shall be compensated in any manner that is based on the amount of any recovery. The Common Expenses shall be appropriately adjusted on the basis of such audit.

(h) Interest on Late Payment. If any payment of Basic Rent or Additional Rent is not paid to Landlord within any applicable grace period, then at Landlord’s option, without notice and in addition to all other remedies hereunder, Tenant shall pay upon demand to Landlord as Additional Rent, interest thereon at an annual rate of ten percent (10%), to be computed from the date such Basic Rent or Additional Rent was originally due through the date when paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

such interest shall not be imposed if Tenant shall make payment within 10 days after notice from Landlord that such payment has not been timely received provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord be obligated to give more than two such notices in any 12 month period prior to assessing such interest against Tenant.

8. Taxes

Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid to Landlord, from and after the Early Access Date (or, where appropriate, directly to the authority by which the same are assessed or imposed, with evidence of such payment to Landlord) as Additional Rent not later than ten (10) days prior to the date the same are due or twenty (20) days after receipt of written notice thereof to Tenant, whichever is later, all taxes and excises upon the personal property and equipment of Tenant located at the Premises or the Property and the Tenant’s Share of the Taxes (as hereinafter defined) and the entire amount of any interest, penalties and costs attributable to delayed payment thereof to the extent such delay is the fault of Tenant. “Taxes” shall mean any and all real estate taxes, betterment and special assessments (provided that Landlord shall elect to pay any such betterment and special assessments over the longest period permitted by applicable law) or amounts in lieu or in the nature thereof and any other taxes, levies, water rents, sewer use charges and other excises, franchises, imposts and charges, general and special of whatever name and nature, and whether or not now within the contemplation of the parties hereto, which may now or hereafter be levied, assessed or imposed by The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Town of Wilmington or any other non-federal authority, or become a lien, upon all or any part of the Property, the Building, the Premises, the use or occupation thereof, or upon Landlord and Tenant in respect thereof, or upon the basis of rentals thereof or therefrom, or upon the estate hereby created or upon Landlord by reason of ownership of the reversion.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the following shall constitute Taxes for the purposes of this Lease, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require Tenant to pay any of the following: (i) any state, local, federal, personal or corporate income tax measured by the income of Landlord; (ii) any estate, inheritance taxes, or gross rental receipts tax; (iii) any franchise, succession or transfer taxes; (iv) interest on taxes or penalties resulting from Landlord’s failure to pay taxes (provided that Tenant shall have made all of its required payments in a timely fashion); provided, however, that if some method or type of taxation shall replace the current method of assessment of real estate taxes in whole or in part, or the type thereof, or if additional types of taxes are imposed upon the Property or Landlord (“New Taxing Method”), Tenant agrees that such taxes or other charges shall be deemed to be, and shall be, Taxes hereunder and Tenant shall pay an equitable share of the same as an additional charge computed in a fashion consistent with the method of computation herein provided, to the end that Tenant’s share thereof shall be, to the maximum extent practicable, comparable to that which Tenant would bear under the foregoing provisions. In the event of a New Taxing Method which measures income to Landlord, Tenant’s share thereof shall be calculated as if the Property were the only property of Landlord subject to such tax.

Tenant shall, commencing on the Early Access Date and thereafter upon receipt of written notice from Landlord, prepay to Landlord monthly as Additional Rent, in the same manner as Basic Rent, one-twelfth (1/12) of the total of all such amounts as Landlord may from time to time reasonably estimate will be payable annually by Tenant under this Paragraph 8, which prepayments shall be applied without interest to such amounts as actually become payable. As soon as any such amounts so payable are actually determined, Landlord shall deliver to tenant a written statement thereof, which shall include copies of the bills for the applicable Taxes. Appropriate adjustments of any overpayment and underpayment shall be made within thirty (30) days after delivery of the statement.

If Landlord shall receive any Tax refund or reimbursement of Taxes or sum in lieu thereof with

respect to any tax year, then out of any balance remaining thereof after deducting Landlord’s expenses reasonably incurred in obtaining such refund, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, provided there does not then exist a Default of Tenant, an amount equal to such refund or reimbursement or sum in lieu thereof, multiplied by Tenant’s Share; provided, that in no event, shall Tenant be entitled to receive more than the payments made by Tenant on account of Taxes for such tax year pursuant to this paragraph.

9. Insurance; Waivers of Claims and Subrogation

Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, obtain and throughout the Term shall maintain, with companies qualified to do business in Massachusetts and reasonably acceptable to Landlord, commercial general liability insurance (with broad form contractual liability) under which Tenant is named insured and Landlord (and such other persons as are in privity of estate with Landlord as may be set out in a notice from time to time) are listed as additional insured as their respective interests may appear, and insuring on an occurrence basis against claims for bodily injury, death or property damage occurring to, upon or about the Premises in limits of $2,000,000 per occurrence /$4,000,000 aggregate (combined single limit) for bodily injury or death and property damage and insurance covering contents of, and personal property and trade fixtures located in, the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the risk of loss to all contents of, and personal property and trade fixtures located in, the Premises is upon Tenant, and Landlord shall have no liability with respect thereto unless (subject to applicable waivers of claims and subrogation) such loss is due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. The above commercial general liability insurance policy shall be non-cancelable and non-amenable with respect to Landlord and Landlord’s said designees without thirty (30) days prior written notice. Tenant shall provide Landlord with certificates of insurance evidencing the foregoing (but in limits of $2,000,000 per occurrence/$4,000,000 aggregate) and thereafter from time to time at Landlord’s request together with reasonable evidence of umbrella coverage which increases the limits to $2,000,000 per occurrence/$4,000,000 aggregate.

Nothing in this Paragraph 9 shall prevent Tenant from carrying any of the insurance required of Tenant hereunder in the form of a blanket and/or umbrella insurance policy or policies which cover other properties owned or operated by Tenant in addition to the Premises.

Landlord shall obtain and throughout the Term shall maintain, with companies qualified to do business in Massachusetts and reasonably acceptable to Tenant and any Mortgagees, for the benefit as named insured of Landlord and any Mortgagees as their respective interests may appear, with losses first payable to such Mortgagees under a standard mortgagee endorsement: (i) insurance against lost rentals from the Building for a period of one year; (ii) so-called “property” insurance against loss or damage to the Building and the Tenant Improvements such as may result from fire and such other casualties as are normally covered by an “extended coverage” endorsement, such casualty insurance to be in an amount equal to the replacement cost of the Building; (iii) boiler and machinery insurance on any Building steam boilers, pressure vessels and pressure piping and miscellaneous electrical apparatus, engines, pumps, and compressors, fans and blowers, with so-called “standard blanket coverage” (15 HP and over); and (iv) a policy of commercial general liability insurance having a combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage of not less than One and One-Half Million Dollars ($1,500,000.00) per occurrence and general aggregate insurance in an amount of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00).

Landlord and Tenant each hereby release the other from any liability for any loss or damage to the Building, the Premises or other property and for injury to or death of persons occurring on the Property or in the Building or the Premises or in any manner growing out of or connected with Tenant’s use and occupation of the Premises, the Building or the Property or the condition thereof, whether or not caused by the negligence or other fault of Landlord, Tenant or their respective agents, employees, subtenants, licensees, invitees or assignees; provided, however, that this release (i) shall apply

notwithstanding the indemnities set forth in Paragraph 15, but only to the extent that such loss or damage to the Building or other property or injury to or death of persons is covered (or required by this Lease to be covered) by insurance which protects Landlord or Tenant or both of them as the case may be; (ii) shall not be construed to impose any other or greater liability upon either Landlord or Tenant then would have existed in the absence hereof; and (iii) shall be in effect only to the extent and so long as the applicable insurance policies waive subrogation and provide that this release shall not affect the right of the insured to recover under such policies, which clauses shall be obtained by the parties hereto whenever available. If waivers of subrogation are not obtainable under a party’s policies or are obtainable only at an additional cost, said party shall notify the other party which, if it desires to have the waiver of subrogation, shall pay said additional cost.

10. Utilities

Landlord shall, at Landlord’s expense, install separate meters to measure gas, water, and electricity consumption by the Tenant, in which event Tenant shall be billed for such water and sewer use charges imposed in respect of the usage indicated by such meter and Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, arrange and pay for such utilities provided to the Premises during the Term, including, without limitation, electricity (including electricity for HVAC, lights and outlets), gas, water, telephone service, security and fire protection, cleaning and trash removal.

During the period of such repair, reconstruction and replacement and until such time as Tenant’s business may be fully resumed on the Premises, there shall be an equitable abatement of Basic Rent and Additional Rent in proportion to the loss of usable floor area in the Premises.

(a) Termination. If the Building or the Premises is so extensively destroyed by fire or other casualty that the Premises cannot reasonably be expected to be susceptible of repair, reconstruction or replacement to its condition immediately prior to such casualty (excluding any additions, alterations, or improvements constructed by Tenant in the Premises) within a period of one hundred eighty (180) days from the date work were to commence thereon, then either party may terminate this Lease immediately

upon notice thereof to the other and the obligation of Tenant, if any, to pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent to Landlord shall terminate as of the date of such notice. Landlord shall notify Tenant within thirty (30) days of such event of damage or destruction whether the Building or the Premises can be fully repaired or restored to its condition immediately prior to such casualty (excluding any additions, alterations, or improvements constructed by Tenant in the Premises) within the one hundred eighty (180) day period. If the Building or the Premises can be fully repaired or restored to its condition immediately prior to such casualty (excluding any additions, alterations, or improvements constructed by Tenant in the Premises) within the one hundred eighty (180) day period, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall xxxxx as described above, and Landlord shall, and subject to the rights of any Mortgages, diligently repair and restore the damage as soon as possible. In the event of any notice of termination pursuant to this Paragraph 16, this Lease shall terminate as of, and Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be appropriately apportioned through and abated from and after, the date of such notice of termination. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, if the Building or the Premises are materially damaged (such that the Premises cannot reasonably be expected to be so repaired within a period of ninety (90) days from the date work were to commence thereon), and on the date of such damage Tenant shall not have already exercised its option to extend the Term of this Lease for the Extended Term, then either party may terminate this Lease as provided in the first sentence above.

(b) Damage or Destruction at End of Term. If the Building or the Premises is damaged or destroyed during the last six (6) months of the Term of the Lease, and the Building or the Premises cannot be fully repaired or restored by Landlord within thirty (30) days after the date of the damage or destruction, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease upon notice to the other, unless Tenant, within 30 days of the date of the fire or other casualty.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Landlord shall not exercise its option to terminate the Lease pursuant to this Section 16 unless Landlord also terminates the leases of the leases of other tenants in the Building whose premises were damaged or affected to a similar or greater degree due to the same occurrence of damage or destruction.

17. Condemnation

If more than ten percent (10%) of the usable floor area of the Premises, or more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the parking spaces then available for use by Tenant shall be taken by eminent domain or appropriated by public authority (and if Landlord is unable or unwilling to provide a reasonably equivalent area or number of parking spaces within a reasonable proximity), Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other within thirty (30) days after such taking or appropriation unless in the case of a taking of parking spaces, Landlord within thirty (30) days after any such notice of termination from Tenant gives written notice to Tenant of Landlord’s assumption of the obligation to replace the parking area so taken with comparable replacements elsewhere on the Property. In the event of such a termination, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of Tenant must surrender possession or, if later, the date Tenant actually surrenders possession, and the Basic Rent and Additional Rent reserved shall be apportioned and paid to and as of such date.

If part of the Premises is taken or appropriated by public authority as aforesaid and this Lease is not terminated as set forth above, Landlord shall, subject to the rights of any Mortgagees, apply any such damages and compensation awarded (net of the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord in obtaining the same) to secure and close so much of the Premises or other improvements constituting part of the Premises as remain and shall promptly restore the Building and the Premises to the same condition as they existed immediately prior to such taking or appropriation; and in such event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, except that there shall be an equitable abatement of Basic Rent and Additional Rent in proportion to the loss of usable floor area in the Premises

after giving effect to such restoration, from and after the date Tenant must surrender possession or, if later, the date Tenant actually surrenders possession.

Landlord hereby reserves, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord, any and all interest in and the claims to the entirety of any damages or other compensation by way of damages which may be awarded in connection with any such taking or appropriation, except so much of such damages or award as is specifically and separately awarded to Tenant and expressly attributable to trade fixtures or moving expenses of Tenant.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Landlord shall not exercise its option to terminate the Lease pursuant to this Section 17 unless Landlord also terminates the leases of other tenants in the Building whose premises were damaged or affected to a similar or greater degree due to the same occurrence of condemnation.

18. Landlord’s Covenant of Quiet Enjoyment

Landlord covenants that Tenant, upon paying the Basic Rent and Additional Rent provided for hereunder and performing and observing all of the other covenants and provisions hereof, may peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term as aforesaid, without hindrance or ejection by any persons lawfully claiming under Landlord to have title to the Premises superior to Tenant subject, however, to all of the terms and provisions of this Lease and to all matters of record; the foregoing covenant of quite enjoyment is in lieu of any other covenant of quiet enjoyment, express or implied.

19. Tenant’s Obligation to Quit; Holdover

Tenant shall, upon the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease, leave and peaceably and quietly surrender and deliver to Landlord the Premises and any replacements or renewals thereof in at least as good condition as the Premises were in on the Early Access Date, and otherwise in the order, condition and repair required by Paragraph 11 hereof and the other provisions of this Lease, except, however, that Tenant shall first remove any trade fixtures and equipment and any alterations, additions and improvements which Landlord has required be removed pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 13 hereof (including any alterations, additions and improvements, for which Landlord’s consent was not required under Paragraph 13), restoring the Premises in each case to its condition prior to the installation of such fixtures or the undertaking of such alterations, additions or improvements, as the case may be, reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty or taking excepted.

If Tenant fails to quit the Premises at the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall be a tenant-at-sufferance and shall pay to Landlord with respect to any holdover period all Additional Rent and a sum equal to one and a half times the Basic Rent in effect on the last day of the Term (or the day preceding such earlier termination) (“Holdover Rent”).

The provisions of this Paragraph 19 shall expressly survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

20. Transfers of Tenant’s Interest

(a) Except as hereinafter set forth, Tenant covenants and agrees that whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise neither this Lease nor the term and estate hereby granted, nor any interest herein or therein, will be assigned, mortgaged, pledged, encumbered or otherwise transferred, except as provided by Section 20(b) herein below, and that neither the Premises nor any part thereof will be encumbered in any manner by reason of any act or omission on the part of Tenant, or used

or occupied or permitted to be used or occupied, by anyone other than Tenant, or for any use or purpose other than a Permitted Use, or be sublet (which term, without limitation, shall include granting of concessions, licenses and the like) in whole or in part, or be offered or advertised for assignment or subletting without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld at any time after Tenant has exercised its option to extent the Term of this Lease for the Extended Term (it being understood that, prior to such exercise, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole discretion). Without limiting the foregoing, any agreement pursuant to which: (x) Tenant is relieved from the obligation to pay, or a third party agrees to pay on Tenant’s behalf, all or any portion of Basic Rent, Additional Rent or other charges due under this Lease; and/or (y) a third party undertakes or is granted the right to assign or attempt to assign this Lease or sublet or attempt sublet all or any portion of the Premises, shall for all purposes hereof be deemed to be an assignment of this Lease and subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 20. Unless Tenant is a corporation the stock in which is publicly traded on one or more exchanges regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the provisions of this paragraph (a) shall apply to a transfer (by one or more transfers) of a majority of the stock or partnership interests or other evidences of ownership of Tenant as if such transfer were an assignment of this Lease.

Notwithstanding any other provision of Section 20 to the contrary, if and at each such time as Tenant shall intend to enter into any sublease pursuant to this Section 20(a), which sublease either (i) covers all or substantially all of the Premises, or (ii) has a term including options to extend or renew) covering all or substantially all of the remainder of the Term of this Lease (excluding any extension options with respect to which Tenant shall not then have exercised its options), then Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such intent and the terms of such sublease not earlier than sixty (60), and not later than thirty (30), days prior to the effective date of such proposed sublease, and Landlord may (in its sole discretion) elect to terminate this Lease (if less than all or substantially all of the Premises are covered by such sublease, then such termination shall affect only that portion of the Premises proposed to be covered by such sublease) by giving notice to Tenant of such election not later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice and, upon the giving of such notice by Landlord, this Lease shall terminate with respect to such portion as of the date on which such sublease would have become effective (or, if later, on the date on which Landlord’s replacement tenant for the area affected becomes effective) with the same force and effect as if such date were the date originally set forth herein as the expiration hereof. If Landlord shall elect to terminate this Lease with respect to any portion of the Premises as hereinabove provided, then (A) from and after the effective date of such termination, the definitions of Basic Rent, Additional Rent, and Premises shall be adjusted to reflect that portion of the Premises that remains subject to this Lease after such termination, and (B) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as an additional charge, any costs incurred by Landlord in connection with physically separating such terminated portion from the remainder of the Premises and complying with any laws, regulations and requirements of governmental authorities regarding the creation of multi-tenant floors.

Tenant shall reimburse Landlord as Additional Rent, upon receipt of demand, for any reasonable costs that may be incurred by Landlord in connection with any proposed assignment or sublease and any request for consent thereto pursuant to this subparagraph (a), including without limitation the costs of making investigations as to the acceptability of any proposed assignee or subtenant and attorneys’ fees. No subleasing, assignment or other transfer of this Lease or the Premises shall affect Tenant’s ongoing and primary liability for performance of all obligations (including without limitation payments) to be performed by Tenant under this Lease, and Tenant shall in all cases remain liable for the same (whether accruing or arising prior to or after such transfer).

(b) The provisions of paragraph (a) shall not apply to an assignment of this Lease or sublease of the whole or any portion of the Premises to any affiliate or subsidiary of Tenant, or to an entity owning Tenant as a subsidiary, or to any entity resulting from a consolidation or merger of Tenant with any other entity, or an entity acquiring a majority of Tenant’s issued and outstanding capital stock or a substantial

portion of Tenant’s physical assets, provided that in any such event, the assignee or sublessee has a financial condition reasonably acceptable to Landlord and:

(i)	Tenant gives Landlord advance written notice describing the transaction and confirms by written instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that, notwithstanding the transaction, Tenant remains bound by all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder; and

(ii)

the assignee agrees directly with Landlord, by written instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, to be bound by all the obligations of Tenant hereunder including, without limitation, any obligation of assignee to obtain from Landlord consent to any further assignment and subletting pursuant to this Section.

(c) In the event that Tenant shall enter into one or more subleases pursuant to paragraph (a) above, if the rent and other sums (including without limitation the fair value of any services provided by such subtenant for Tenant) on account of any such sublease exceed the Basic Rent and Additional Rent allocable to that portion of the Premises subject to such sublease, plus actual out-of-pocket third party expenses reasonably incurred in connection with such sublease (such expenses to be pro-rated evenly over the term of such sublease), including without limitation reasonable brokerage commissions actually paid to a licensed broker, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as an additional charge, 50% of such excess, such amount to be paid monthly with payments by Tenant of Basic Rent hereunder.

21. Transfers of Landlord’s Interest

Landlord shall have the right from time to time to sell or mortgage its interest in the Property, the Building and the Premises, to assign its interest in this Lease, or to assign from time to time the Basic Rent, Additional Rent or other sums and charges at any time paid or payable hereunder by Tenant to Landlord, to any Mortgagees or other transferees designated by Landlord. In any such case Tenant shall pay the Basic Rent, Additional Rent and such other sums and charges so assigned, subject to the terms of the Lease, upon receipt from Landlord of written notice, to such Mortgagees and other transferees at the addresses mentioned in and in accordance with terms of such instruments of designation.

22. Mortgagees’ Rights

This Lease is and shall be subject and subordinate to any mortgage (and to any amendments, extensions, increases, refinancing or restructuring thereof) of the Property, the Building or the Premises, whether such mortgage is filed prior or subsequent to the execution, delivery or the recording of this Lease or any notice hereof (the holder from time to time of any such mortgage is hereinafter called the “Mortgagee”). The foregoing subordination shall be self-operative and automatically effective as to any existing mortgage or mortgage filed subsequent to the execution and delivery hereof; provided, that (i) if Tenant so requests, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts (which shall not include the obligation to pay any fee or charge or to agree to any less favorable terms or conditions in the secured indebtedness) to obtain for the benefit of Tenant an agreement from any future or existing Mortgagee on its standard form then in use that, for so long as there exists no default beyond applicable grace periods under this Lease by Tenant, and subject to such Mortgagee’s customary exceptions and qualifications, the Mortgagee will not, in foreclosing against or taking possession of the Premises or otherwise exercising its rights under such mortgage, terminate this Lease or disturb Tenant’s possession of the Premises hereunder, or words of similar import and (ii) such subordination shall not otherwise unreasonably restrict or limit the rights or increase the obligations of Tenant under this Lease. Tenant hereby agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver in recordable form such instruments confirming and evidencing the foregoing subordination as Landlord or any such Mortgagee may from time to time reasonably require.

Provided that Tenant has been provided with written notice of such mortgage and appropriate addresses to which notice should be sent, no notice from Tenant of any default by Landlord in its obligations shall be valid, and Tenant shall not attempt to terminate this Lease, withhold Basic Rent or Additional Rent or exercise any other remedy which may arise by reason of any such default, unless Tenant first gives such notice to such Mortgagee and provides such Mortgagee with reasonable time after such notice to cure such default. Tenant shall and does hereby agree, upon default by Landlord under any mortgage, to attorn to and recognize the Mortgagee or anyone else claiming under such mortgage, including a purchaser at a foreclosure sale, upon receipt of written request from a successor to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, to execute, acknowledge and deliver in recordable form such evidence of this attornment, and to make payments of Basic Rent and Additional Rent hereunder directly to the Mortgagee or any such successor, as the case may be, provided that this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between such Mortgagee or successor and Tenant. Tenant may comply with the instructions given it by such Mortgagee or successor without the need to verify Landlord’s default under the subject mortgage. Any Mortgagee may, at any time, by giving written notice to, and without any further consent from, Tenant, subordinate its mortgage to this Lease, and thereupon the interest of Tenant under this Lease shall automatically be deemed to be prior to the lien of such mortgage without regard to the relative dates of execution. delivery or recording thereof or otherwise.

23. Tenant’s Default; Landlord’s Remedies

If Tenant shall: (i) default in the payment when due of any Basic Rent, Additional Rent, or any other charges hereunder, and such default shall continue for five (5) days after written notice from Landlord of such default; or (ii) if Tenant shall default in the performance or observance of any of the other covenants contained in this Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed or observed and shall fail, within thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord of such default, to cure such default, or if such cure cannot reasonably be completed within thirty (30) days, if Tenant fails promptly to commence such cure, and thereafter diligently complete it (and in any event within sixty (60) days following the end of said thirty (30) day period); or (iii) if the estate hereby created shall be taken on execution, or by other process of law or if Tenant shall be found, under Title 11 of the United States Code as from time to time in effect, or under any applicable law, other than said Title 11, of any jurisdiction relating to the liquidation or reorganization of debtors or to the modification or alteration of the rights of creditors, to be bankrupt or insolvent, or an order by a court of competent jurisdiction shall be entered approving its liquidation or reorganization or any modification or alteration of the rights of its creditors (which order is not discharged within 60 days after such entry) or assuming custody of, or appointing a receiver or other custodian for, all or a substantial part of its property (in every such case, a “Default of Tenant”); then, and in any of said cases, Landlord may, to the extent permitted by law, immediately or at any time thereafter and without demand or notice, terminate this Lease and enter into and upon the Premises, or any part thereof in the name of the whole, and repossess the same as of Landlord’s former estate, and, by any lawful means, expel Tenant and those claiming through or under Tenant and remove its effects without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, and without prejudice to any remedies which might otherwise be used for arrears of rent or preceding breach of covenant.

No termination or repossession provided for in this Paragraph 23 shall relieve Tenant or any guarantor of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease of or from its liabilities and obligations under this Lease, all of which shall survive any such termination or repossession. In the event of any such termination or repossession, Tenant shall pay to Landlord either: (i) in advance on the first day of each month, for what would have been the entire balance of the Term one-twelfth (1/12) (and a pro rata portion thereof for any fraction of a month) of the annual Basic Rent, Additional Rent and all other amounts for which Tenant is obligated hereunder, less, in each case, the actual net receipts by Landlord by reason of any reletting of the Premises after deducting Landlord’s expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, removal, storage and repair and renovation costs and reasonable brokers’

and attorneys’ fees; or (ii) at the option of Landlord exercisable by Landlord’s giving notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after any such termination, an amount equal to the amount by which the payments of Basic Rent and Additional Rent reasonably estimated to be payable for the balance of the Term after the date of the exercise of said option would exceed the payments reasonably estimated to be the fair rental value of the Premises over such period, determined as of such date. Landlord will use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages.

Without thereby affecting any other right or remedy of Landlord hereunder, Landlord may, at its option, cure for Tenant’s account any default by Tenant hereunder which remains uncured after said thirty (30) days’ notice of default from Landlord to Tenant, and the cost to Landlord of such cure shall be deemed to be Additional Rent and shall be paid to Landlord by Tenant with the installment of Basic Rent next accruing, together with interest thereon, from the date so expended until the date repaid, at the annual rate of ten percent (10%). Without thereby affecting any other right or remedy of Landlord hereunder, Landlord may, at its option, charge Tenant a late charge in the amount of five percent (5%) of the amount overdue in connection with any Basic Rent or Additional Rent not paid within five (5) days of the date when due.

24. Remedies Cumulative; Waivers

Except as stated otherwise herein, the specific remedies to which either party may resort under the terms of this Lease are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or means of redress to which that party may be lawfully entitled under any provision of this Lease or otherwise. The failure of Landlord or Tenant to insist in any one or more instances upon the strict performance of any of the covenants of this Lease shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment for the future of such covenant. A receipt by Landlord, or payment by Tenant, of Basic Rent or Additional Rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver, change, modification or discharge by Landlord or Tenant of any provision in this Lease shall be deemed to have been made or shall be effective unless expressed in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Landlord or of Tenant, as the case may be. In addition to the other remedies in this Lease provided, Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, shall be entitled to the restraint by injunction of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease, or to a decree compelling performance of or compliance with any of such covenants, conditions or provisions.

25. Broker

Tenant warrants and represents that it has not dealt with any real estate broker other than Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx of Massachusetts, Inc. (the “Landlord’s Broker”) and CresaPartners Boston ( the “Tenant’s Broker”) in connection with the Premises or this Lease. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any liability for commissions due any real estate broker or finder other than the Brokers with whom Tenant is claimed to have dealt in connection with this Lease.

Any notices or other communications hereunder shall be in writing and delivered by hand or mailed, postage prepaid, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or delivered by generally-recognized overnight delivery service, if to Landlord at the address first set forth above, with a copy to Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, Esq., Xxxxxx & XxXxxxxxxx, LLP, 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000, and if to Tenant at the address first set forth above, and if to any Mortgagee at such address as it may specify by such written notice to Landlord and Tenant, or at such other address as any of them may from time to time specify by like notice to the others. Any such notice shall be deemed given when personally delivered or, if mailed, three business days after having been mailed as herein provided, unless mailed by

generally-accepted overnight delivery service, in which case notice shall be deemed given one business day after having been so mailed.

27. Estoppel Certificate

Each party shall, from time to time, within twenty (20) days after receipt of written request from the other party or any Mortgagee, execute, acknowledge and deliver, without charge, to the other party, the Mortgagee or any other person designated, a statement in writing certifying: (i) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, identifying the same by the date thereof and specifying the nature thereof); (ii) that, to the knowledge of the certifying party, there exist no defaults (or if there be any defaults, specifying the same); (iii) the amount of the Basic Rent, the dates to which the Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums and charges payable hereunder have been paid; (iv) that, to the knowledge of the certifying party, there exist no claims against the other party hereunder except for the continuing obligations under this Lease (or if the certifying party has any such claims, specifying the same); and (v) such other matters as the requesting party or the Mortgagee may reasonably request.

28. Bind and Inure; Limited Liability of Landlord

All of the covenants, agreements, stipulations, provisions, conditions and obligations herein expressed and set forth shall be considered as running with the land and shall extend to, bind and inure to the benefit of Landlord and Tenant, which terms as used in this Lease shall include their respective successors and assigns where the context hereof so admits.

The term “Landlord” as used in this Lease shall refer to the owner or owners from time to time of the Property or the Building, it being understood that no such owner shall have any liability hereunder for matters arising from and after the date such owner ceases to have any interest in the Property or the Building, provided that the successor to such owner expressly assumes in writing the covenants, agreements and obligations of Landlord hereunder. Landlord shall never be liable for any consequential, indirect or punitive damages under any circumstances. Landlord shall in no event be in default in the performance of any of Landlord’s obligations hereunder unless and until Landlord shall have failed to perform such obligations within thirty (30) days, or if such failure is of such a nature that Landlord cannot reasonably remedy the same within such thirty (30) day period, Landlord shall fail to commence promptly (and in any event within such thirty (30) day period) to remedy the same and to prosecute such remedy to completion with diligence and continuity. To the extent permitted by law, Tenant expressly waives the benefits of any statute or other law now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise afford Tenant the right to make repairs at Landlord’s expense or to terminate this Lease because of Landlord’s failure to keep the Property in good order, condition and repair.

All prior written and oral agreements between the parties and all prior representations made by

either party to the other with respect to the subject matter hereof have been incorporated in this instrument or otherwise satisfied prior to the execution hereof.

31. Severability; Choice of Law

If any provision of this Lease shall be declared to be void or unenforceable either by law or by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity or enforceability of remaining provisions shall not thereby be affected. This Lease is made under, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

32. Enforcement of Rights

All reasonable costs or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord in connection with amendments to, consents under and subleases and assignments of this Lease (other than assignments or subleases described in Paragraph 20(b) above) shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon receipt of written demand. All reasonable costs or expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by Tenant in connection with amendment to and consents under this Lease requested by Landlord shall be paid by Landlord to Tenant upon receipt of written demand. All reasonable costs or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by a party in enforcing its rights or remedies hereunder, whether during or after the expiration or termination of the term, shall be paid by the party prevailing in such enforcement of rights and remedies. Moreover, if either party hereto is, without fault on its own part, made a party to any action instituted by or against the other party to this Lease due to such other party’s fault, such other party shall indemnify the party innocently involved and save it harmless against and from all such cost and expense incurred therein including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees. Time shall be of the essence of this Lease.

33. Covenants Regarding Hazardous Materials

Tenant shall not cause or allow any of its employees, agents, customers, visitors, invitees, licensees, contractors, assignees or subtenants (collectively “Tenant’s Parties”) to cause any Hazardous Materials to be brought on to, used, generated, stored or disposed of, on or about the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may store and use (but not manufacture or dispose of) in the Premises such materials as are customarily used in Tenant’s business activities to the extent necessary, provided that no such materials shall exceed the quantity or concentration permitted from time to time by applicable Hazardous Materials Laws (as defined below). Tenant and all Tenant Parties shall strictly comply with the requirements of all federal, state or local laws, rules and regulations relating to Hazardous Materials, including, without limitation, the Resources Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (“RCRA”), 42 U.S.C. Section 6901 et seq.; the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Liability and Recovery Act, (“CERCLA”), 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq., 42 U.S.C. Section 2601 et seq.; the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, 49 U.S.C. Section 1802 et seq.; and Massachusetts General Laws, Chapters 21C and 21E, and all rules, procedures and regulations promulgated under any of the foregoing, as such laws, rules and regulations may be amended from time to time (collectively “Hazardous Materials Laws”). Without limitation, Tenant shall maintain all required Material Safety Data Sheets, and such other filings and records as shall be required by Hazardous Materials Laws or by Tenant’s or Landlord’s insurer(s) or other regulatory bodies. Tenant will provide complete and accurate information to Landlord regarding such materials upon request (provided that the Landlord’s right to request such information shall in no way impose any liability or obligation on Landlord in respect thereof). All such materials shall be procured, stored, handled, used and disposed of by qualified (and, where required, licensed) personnel in the manner from time to time provided by law. Without limiting any of the foregoing, Tenant shall indemnify, defend by counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord, protect and hold Landlord harmless from and against all liabilities, losses, costs and expenses, demands,

Tenant’s obligations pursuant to the foregoing indemnity shall survive the termination of this Lease.

34. Recording

Tenant agrees not to record this Lease or any notice or memorandum thereof.

35. Security Deposit

On or before the Early Access Date, Tenant will deposit with Lessor a security deposit (the “Security Deposit”) in the amount of Ninety-Two Thousand Dollars ($92,000.00) to be held by Landlord for the duration of the Lease as security for the full performance by Tenant of all of the obligations on the part of Tenant hereunder. The Security Deposit shall, at the option of Tenant, be in the form of an irrevocable demand letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord, issued by an FDIC-insured commercial banking institution reasonably acceptable to Landlord.

If the Security Deposit, or any portion thereof, is in the form of cash, Landlord shall hold the same without liability for interest and without any obligation to segregate such cash from Landlord’s other funds. Tenant shall not mortgage, pledge, grant a security interest in, or otherwise encumber the Security Deposit. Landlord shall have the right from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy Landlord may have on account thereof, to apply such Security Deposit, or any part thereof, to Landlord’s damages arising from any Default of Tenant. Upon such application, Tenant shall promptly restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Upon the full performance by Tenant of its obligations hereunder, the Security Deposit, or such amount that shall be remaining after application of the same hereunder, shall be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and surrender of possession of the Premises by Tenant to Landlord at such time.

If the Security Deposit is in the form of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit shall, throughout the Term, be in full force and in compliance with the terms of this Lease. Tenant shall not mortgage, pledge, grant a security interest in, or otherwise encumber the Letter of Credit or the proceeds of the same. Landlord shall have the right from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy Landlord may have on account thereof, to draw on the Letter of Credit and apply the proceeds, or any part thereof, to Landlord’s damages arising from any Default of Tenant (beyond applicable notice and cure periods) on the part of Tenant. Upon such application, Tenant shall promptly restore the Security Deposit to its original amount either by delivering cash or a new Letter of Credit complying with the provisions hereof to Landlord. In the event such Letter of Credit will expire by its terms prior to the end of the Term and Tenant fails to provide a substitute Letter of Credit at least thirty (30) days prior to such expiration, then Landlord may draw on the Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds. Any portion of the proceeds of the Letter of Credit not applied to cure a Default of Tenant hereunder shall be held by Landlord as a cash Security Deposit pursuant to the provision set forth above unless Landlord shall require a new Letter of Credit

complying with the provisions hereof, in which event the unapplied cash proceeds shall be promptly returned to Tenant for such purpose. Upon the full performance by Tenant of its obligations hereunder, the Letter of Credit (or the remaining proceeds thereof if previously drawn and not applied to cure a Default of Tenant hereunder), shall be surrendered to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and surrender of possession of the Premises by Tenant to Landlord at such time.

36. Option to Extend

(a) Provided that, at the time of such exercise, (i) there exists no Default of Tenant beyond applicable cure periods; (ii) this Lease is still in full force and effect and Tenant actually occupies the entire Premises; and (iii) Tenant shall not have sublet any or all of the Premises, Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term of this Lease as to the Premises originally leased hereunder for one extended term (the “Extended Term”) of three (3) years. The Extended Term shall commence on the day immediately following the expiration date of the Initial Term, and shall end on the day immediately preceding the third anniversary of the first day of the Extended Term. Tenant shall exercise such option by giving Landlord written notice of its desire to do so, not later than ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, it being agreed that time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of such notice. The giving of such notice shall automatically extend the Term of this Lease for the Extended Term of this Lease for the Extended Term, and no instrument of renewal need be executed. In the event that Tenant fails to give such notice to Landlord within such time, the Term of this Lease shall automatically terminate at the end of the Initial Term, and Tenant shall have no further right or option to extend the Term of this Lease, time being of the essence. The Extended Term shall be on all the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that: (i) Landlord shall have no obligation to perform or pay for any construction or improvements to the Premises, with respect to the Extended Term unless otherwise expressly agreed at the time; and (ii) the Basic Rent for the Extended Term shall be determined in accordance with Paragraph 36(b).

(b) The Basic Rent for the Extended Term shall be at a rental rate equal to the Fair Market Rental Value (in the North Suburban Boston area) of the Premises as of the commencement of the Extended Term, determined without regard to Tenant’s right to extend, as agreed by the parties, it being understood that during the Extended Term, Additional Rent shall continue to be calculated in accordance with Paragraph 7 of this Lease.

(c) (i) The term “Fair Market Rental Value” shall mean the annual fixed rent that a willing tenant would pay and a willing landlord would accept, each acting in its own best interest and without duress, in an arms-length lease of the premises in question as of the date (the “Determination Date”) on which the same is to become effective. If Landlord and Tenant shall fail to agree upon the Fair Market Rental Value within sixty (60) days before the Determination Date, then Landlord and Tenant each shall give notice (the “Determination Notice”) to the other setting forth their respective determinations of the Fair Market Rental Value, and, subject to the provisions of paragraph (ii) below, either party may apply to the American Arbitration Association or any successor thereto for the designation of an arbitrator satisfactory to both parties to render a final determination of the Fair Market Rental Value. The arbitrator shall be a real estate appraiser or consultant who shall have at lease ten (10) years’ continuous experience as a commercial real estate broker or appraiser, and having significant experience with property similar to the Building in the greater Boston area. The arbitrator shall conduct such hearings and investigations as the arbitrator shall deem appropriate and shall, within thirty (30) days after having been appointed, choose one of the determinations set forth in either Landlord’s or Tenant’s Determination Notice, and that choice by the arbitrator shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. Each party shall pay its own counsel fees and expenses, if any, in connection with any arbitration under this paragraph (c), and the parties shall share equally all other expenses and fees of any such arbitration. The determination rendered in

accordance with the provisions of this paragraph (ii) shall be final and binding in fixing the Fair Market Rental Value. The arbitrator shall not have the power to add to, modify, or change any of the provisions of this Lease.

(ii) In the event that the lower of the two determination of the Fair Market Rental Value is greater than ninety-five percent (95%) of the higher determination, then the Fair Market Rental Value shall not be determined by arbitration, but shall instead be set by taking the average of the determinations set forth in Landlord’s and Tenant’s Determination Notices. Only if the lower determination is ninety-five percent (95%) or less of the higher determination shall the actual determination of Fair Market Rental Value be made by an arbitrator as set forth in paragraph (i) above.

(iii) If for any reason the Fair Market Rental Value shall not have been determined prior to the Determination Date, then, until the Fair Market Rental Value and, accordingly, the Basic Rent shall have been finally determined, Tenant shall pay Basic Rent, shall have been finally determined, Tenant shall pay Basic Rent at the rate quoted by Landlord in Landlord’s Determination Notice, but subject to the limitations of Paragraph 36(b) hereof. Upon final determination of the Fair Market Rental Value, an appropriate adjustment to the Basic Rent theretofore paid by Tenant from and after the Determination Date shall be made reflecting such final determination, and Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, shall promptly credit or pay, respective, to the other any overpayment of deficiency, as the case may be, in the payment of Basic Rent from the Determination Date to the date of such final determination..

38. Force Majeure
