2.2	Rights to Use Common Facilities

2.2.1

Tenant’s Parking

In addition, Tenant shall have the right to use in the parking area the Number of Parking Spaces (referred to in Section 1.1) for the parking of automobiles. In the event that the Rentable Floor Area of the Premises decreases or increases at any time during the Lease Term, the Number of Parking Spaces provided to Tenant hereunder shall be adjusted proportionately. Tenant covenants and agrees that it and all persons claiming by, through and under it, shall at all times abide by all reasonable rules and regulations promulgated by Landlord with respect to the use of the parking areas on the Site, subject to the provisions in Section 5.4. The parking privileges granted herein are non-transferable except to a permitted assignee or subtenant as provided in Section 5.6. Further, Landlord assumes no responsibility whatsoever for loss or damage due to fire, theft or otherwise to any automobile(s) parked on the Site or to any personal property therein, unless caused by the willful acts or negligence of the Landlord or its agents, contractors or representatives, and Tenant covenants and agrees, upon request from Landlord from time to time, to notify its officers, employees, agents and invitees of such limitation of liability. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that a license only is hereby granted, and no bailment is intended or shall be created.

2.2.2

Signage

Provided (i) Tenant leases the Total Rentable Floor Area of the Building, (ii) no Event of Default exists, and (iii) Tenant has not assigned this Lease or sublet more than fifty percent (50%) of the Premises (except for an assignment or subletting permitted without Landlord’s consent under Section 5.6.1 hereof), Tenant shall be permitted, at Tenant’s expense, to erect one (1) exterior sign on the façade of the Building containing Tenant’s name and/or logo in a location first approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In addition, the design, size, proportions and color of such signage shall be subject to the prior approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and shall be further subject to the requirements of the Zoning By-Law of the Town of Lexington and any other applicable Legal Requirements (as defined in Exhibit B-1) and to Tenant obtaining all necessary permits and approvals therefor. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Xxxxxx’s right to signage on the Building pursuant to this Section 2.2.2 is not on an exclusive basis and that Landlord may grant other tenants in the Complex the right to signage on the Site; provided, however, Xxxxxxxx agrees not to provide such signage for others on the Building (other than signage identifying Landlord and/or its broker) for so long as Tenant is the sole tenant of the Building. In the event Tenant erects a sign pursuant to this Section 2.2.2 and Tenant subsequently assigns this Lease, or subleases more than fifty percent (50%) of its Premises (except for an assignment or subletting permitted pursuant to Section 5.6.1), Xxxxxx agrees that it shall remove such signage at Tenant’s expense if requested by the Landlord. In addition, Tenant shall be required, at its sole cost and expense, to remove all of the signage described in this Section 2.2.2 and restore any areas affected by the installation and subsequent removal of Tenant’s signage upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.

Installations, replacements and relocations referred to in clause (a) above shall be located so far as practicable above ceiling surfaces, below floor surfaces or within perimeter walls of the Premises.

2.4

Habendum

Tenant shall have and hold the Premises for a period commencing on the earlier of (a) the Substantial Completion Date (as defined in Exhibit B-1 hereof), or (b) that date on which Tenant commences occupancy of any portion of the Premises for the Permitted Uses (the earlier of such dates being referred to herein as the “Commencement Date”), and continuing for the Term unless sooner terminated as provided in Article VI or Article VII or unless extended as provided in Section 2.4.1.

As soon as may be convenient after the date has been determined on which the Term commences as aforesaid, Landlord and Tenant agree to join with each other in the execution of a written Declaration Affixing the Commencement Date of Lease, in the form of Exhibit E, in which the date on which the Term commences as aforesaid and the Term of this Lease shall be stated. If Tenant fails to execute such Declaration Affixing the Commencement Date of Lease, the Commencement Date and Lease Term shall be as reasonably determined by Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Lease.

2.4.1

Extension Option

(A) On the conditions (which conditions Landlord may waive by written notice to Tenant) that at the time of exercise of the option to extend and at the commencement date of the extension option period (i) there exists no Event of Default (defined in Section 7.1), (ii) this Lease is still in full force and effect, and (iii) Tenant has neither assigned this Lease nor sublet more than fifty percent (50%) of the Premises in the aggregate (except for an assignment or subletting permitted without Landlord’s consent under Section 5.6.1 hereof), Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term hereof upon all the same terms, conditions, covenants and agreements herein contained (except for the Annual Fixed Rent which shall be adjusted during the option periods as hereinbelow set forth) for one (1) period of five (5) years as hereinafter set forth. Such option period is sometimes herein referred to as an “Extended Term.” Notwithstanding any implication to the contrary Landlord has no obligation to make any additional payment to Tenant in respect of any construction allowance or the like or to perform any work to the Premises as a result of the exercise by Tenant of any such option. To the extent that Xxxxxx has leased the Expansion Premises pursuant to Article X below, then any exercise of Tenant’s rights under this Section 2.4.1 shall include the Expansion Premises and all references herein to “Premises” shall include the Expansion Premises.

Page 9

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

(B) (i) If Tenant desires to exercise the option to extend the Term, then Tenant shall give notice (the “Exercise Notice”) to Landlord, not earlier than twenty (20) months nor later than fifteen (15) months prior to the expiration of the Term of this Lease exercising such option to extend. Promptly after Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of the Exercise Notice Landlord shall provide Landlord’s quotation of a proposed Annual Fixed Rent for the Extended Term (“Landlord’s Rent Quotation”). If at the expiration of thirty (30) days after the date when Landlord provides such quotation to Tenant (the “Negotiation Period”), Landlord and Tenant have not reached agreement on a determination of an Annual Fixed Rent for the Extended Term and executed a written instrument extending the Term of this Lease pursuant to such agreement, then Tenant shall have the right, for thirty (30) days following the expiration of the Negotiation Period, to make a request to Landlord for a broker determination (the “Broker Determination”) of the Prevailing Market Rent (as defined in Exhibit G) for the Extended Term, which Broker Determination shall be made in the manner set forth in Exhibit G.

(B) (ii) If Tenant timely shall have requested the Broker Determination, then the Annual Fixed Rent for the Extended Term shall be the Prevailing Market Rent as determined by the Broker Determination. If Tenant does not timely request the Broker Determination, then Annual Fixed Rent during the Extended Term shall be equal to Landlord’s Rent Quotation.

(C) Upon the giving of the Exercise Notice by Tenant to Landlord exercising Tenant’s then option to extend the Lease Term in accordance with the provisions of either subsection (B) above, this Lease and the Lease Term hereof shall be extended, for the Extended Term, without the necessity for the execution of any additional documents, except that Landlord and Tenant agree to enter into an instrument in writing setting forth the Annual Fixed Rent for the Extended Term but the failure to so enter into such a written instrument shall not negate the exercise of the option to extend. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, and in no event shall the Lease Term hereof be extended for more than five (5) years after the expiration of the Original Term hereof.

2.5	Fixed Rent Payments

Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, (1)(a) on the Rent Commencement Date (defined in Section 1.1 hereof) and thereafter monthly, in advance, on the first day of each and every calendar month during the Original Term, a sum equal to one twelfth (1/12^th) of the Annual Fixed Rent (sometimes hereinafter referred to as “fixed rent”) and (1)(b) on the first day of each and every calendar month during the extension option period (if exercised), a sum equal to one twelfth (1/12^th) of the Annual Fixed Rent as determined in Section 2.4.1 for the extension option period. Until notice of some other designation is given, fixed rent and all other charges for which provision is herein made shall be paid by remittance to or for the order of Boston Properties Limited Partnership either (i) by ACH transfer to Bank of America in Dallas, Texas, Bank Routing Number or (ii) by mail to P.O.

Page 10

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

Annual Fixed Rent for any partial month shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord at such rate on a pro rata basis, and, if the Rent Commencement Date is a day other than the first day of a calendar month, the first payment of Annual Fixed Rent which Tenant shall make to Landlord shall be a payment equal to a proportionate part of such monthly Annual Fixed Rent for the partial month from the Rent Commencement Date to the first day of the succeeding calendar month.

Additional Rent payable by Tenant on a monthly basis, as hereinafter provided, likewise shall be prorated, and the first payment on account thereof shall be determined in similar fashion but shall commence on the Commencement Date; and other provisions of this Lease calling for monthly payments shall be read as incorporating this undertaking by Tenant.

The Annual Fixed Rent and all other charges for which provision is herein made shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, without offset, deduction or abatement except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Lease.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in Section 1.1 to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that in the event a monetary Event of Default occurs during the first twelve (12) months of the Term of this Lease, the Abated Fixed Rent shall immediately become due and payable and Tenant shall make payment of the same within thirty (30) days after demand therefor by Landlord.

2.6	Operating Expenses

“Landlord’s Operating Expenses” means the costs incurred by Landlord for the maintenance, repair, management and operation of the Building and the Site which shall exclude costs of special services rendered to Tenant for which a separate charge is made, but shall include, without limitation, the following: premiums for insurance carried with respect to the Building and the Site (including, without limitation, liability insurance, insurance against loss in case of fire or casualty and insurance of monthly installments of fixed rent and any Additional Rent which may be due under this Lease for not more than 12 months in the case of both fixed rent and Additional Rent and if there be any first mortgage of the Complex, including such insurance as may be required by the holder of such first mortgage); compensation and all fringe benefits, worker’s compensation insurance premiums and payroll taxes paid to, for or with respect to all persons engaged in the operating, maintaining or cleaning of the Building or Site, water, sewer, electric, gas, oil and telephone charges (excluding utility charges separately chargeable to Tenant for additional or special services); cost of building and cleaning supplies and equipment; cost of maintenance, cleaning and repairs (other than repairs not properly chargeable against income or reimbursed from contractors under guarantees); cost of snow removal and care of landscaping; payments under service contracts with independent contractors; management fees equal to three percent (3%) of the gross rents from the Building; costs of maintaining a regional property management office in connection with the operation, management and maintenance of the Building; all costs of applying and reporting for the Building or any part thereof to seek or maintain certification under the U.S. EPA’s Energy Star^® rating system, the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system or a similar system or standard; and all other reasonable and necessary expenses paid in connection with the operation, cleaning and maintenance of the Building and the Site and properly chargeable against income, provided, however, there shall be included (a) depreciation for capital expenditures made by Landlord during the Lease Term (i) to reduce Landlord’s Operating Expenses if Landlord shall have reasonably determined that the annual reduction in Landlord’s Operating Expenses shall exceed depreciation therefor or (ii) to comply with applicable Legal Requirements now or hereafter in force (the capital expenditures described in subsections (i) and (ii) being hereinafter referred to as “Permitted Capital Expenditures”); plus (b) in the case of both (i) and (ii) an interest factor equal to the lesser of the so-called “prime rate” announced by the Bank of America, N.A. (or its successors) plus four percent (4%) or the maximum rate permitted by law; depreciation in the case of both (i) and (ii) shall be determined on a straight-line basis by dividing the original cost of such capital expenditure by the number of years of useful life of the capital item acquired and the useful life shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices in effect at the time of acquisition of the capital item; provided, however, if Landlord reasonably concludes on the basis of engineering estimates that a particular capital expenditure will effect savings in other Landlord’s Operating Expenses, including, without limitation, energy related costs, and that such projected savings will, on an annual basis (“Projected Annual Savings”), exceed the annual depreciation therefor, then and in such event the amount of depreciation for such capital expenditure shall be increased to an amount equal to the Projected Annual Savings; and in such circumstance, the increased depreciation (in the amount of the Projected Annual Savings) shall be made for such period of time as it would take to fully amortize the cost of the item in question, together with interest thereon at the interest rate as aforesaid in equal monthly payments, each in the amount of 1/12th of the Projected Annual Savings, with such payment to be applied first to interest and the balance to principal.

Said statement to be rendered to Tenant shall also show for the preceding year or fraction thereof as the case may be the amounts of Landlord’s Operating Expenses already paid by Xxxxxx, as Additional Rent, and the amount of the Landlord’s Operating Expenses remaining due from, or overpaid by, Tenant for the year or other period covered by the statement. Within thirty (30) days after the date of delivery of such statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the balance of the amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to the above provisions of this Section 2.6 with respect to the preceding year or fraction thereof, or Landlord shall credit any amounts due from it to Tenant pursuant to the above provisions of this Section 2.6 against (i) monthly installments of fixed rent next thereafter coming due or (ii) any sums then due from Tenant to Landlord under this Lease (or refund such portion of the overpayment as aforesaid if the Term has ended and Tenant has no further obligation to Landlord).

In addition, commencing on the Commencement Date, Tenant shall make payments monthly on account of Landlord’s Operating Expenses anticipated for the then current year at the time and in the fashion herein provided for the payment of fixed rent.

To the extent Landlord grants Tenant the right to initiate such proceedings, Xxxxxx shall agrees that each such contest shall be promptly and diligently prosecuted in good faith to a final conclusion except only as provided herein. Xxxxxxxx agrees to cooperate with Xxxxxx in any such proceeding provided that the same shall be at the sole cost and expense of Tenant.

In the event Landlord shall give such Assumption Notice, Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord in all respects as may be necessary for Landlord’s continuation of such contest, but Tenant shall have no other obligation for the prosecution and conduct of such contest.

(B) In addition, commencing on the Commencement Date, payments by Xxxxxx on account of real estate taxes reasonably anticipated for the then current year shall be made monthly at the time and in the fashion herein provided for the payment of fixed rent. The amount so to be paid to Landlord shall be an amount reasonably estimated by Landlord to be sufficient to provide Landlord, in the aggregate, a sum equal to such real estate taxes, at least ten (10) days before the day on which such payments by Xxxxxxxx would become delinquent. Landlord shall notify Tenant of the amount of such payment not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date the first such payment from Tenant is due and payable provided Landlord has been previously notified of such amount by the applicable governmental authority.

(C) To the extent that real estate taxes shall be payable to the taxing authority in installments with respect to periods less than a Tax Year, the foregoing statement shall be rendered and payments made on account of such installments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Tenant is required to pay any assessments, each assessment shall be deemed to be payable in as many installments as is lawful, plus any interest due thereon, and only the installments due during any Tax Year shall be included in the real estate taxes for that Tax Year; any portion of any assessment deemed payable after the term of this Lease shall not be Tenant’s obligation. All refunds, rebates and discounts received by Landlord in connection with such Taxes shall be deducted prior to the calculation of Tenant’s payment of Landlord’s Tax Expenses for those periods when such Landlord’s Tax Expenses are paid or payable by Tenant.

Landlord shall respond to Texxxx’s request for consent to a proposed assignment or sublet within thirty (30) days after receipt of Texxxx’s Proposed Transfer Notice.

Without limiting the foregoing standard, Landlord shall not be deemed to be unreasonably withholding its consent to such a proposed assignment or subleasing if:

(a)

the proposed assignee or subtenant is not of a character consistent with the operation of a first class office and laboratory building (by way of example Landlord shall not be deemed to be unreasonably withholding its consent to an assignment or subleasing to any governmental or quasi-governmental agency), or

(b)

the proposed assignee or subtenant is not of good character and reputation, or

(c)

the proposed assignee or subtenant does not possess adequate financial capability to perform the Tenant obligations as and when due or required, or

(d)

the assignee or subtenant proposes to use the Premises (or part thereof) for a purpose other than the purpose for which the Premises may be used as stated in Section 1.1 hereof, or

(e)

the character of the business to be conducted or the proposed use of the Premises by the proposed subtenant or assignee shall violate or be likely to violate any provisions or restrictions contained herein relating to the use or occupancy of the Premises, or

(f)

there shall then be existing an Event of Default (defined in Section 7.1), or

(g)

any part of the rent payable under the proposed assignment or sublease shall be based in whole or in part on the income or profits derived from the Premises or if any proposed assignment or sublease shall potentially have any material adverse effect on the real estate investment trust qualification requirements applicable to Landlord and its affiliates, or

(h)

the holder of any mortgage or ground lease on property which includes the Premises does not approve of the proposed assignment or sublease.

If Landlord shall consent to the proposed assignment or subletting, as the case may be, then, in such event, Tenant may thereafter sublease (the whole but not part of the Premises) or assign pursuant to Tenant’s notice, as given hereunder; provided, however, that if such assignment or sublease shall not be executed and delivered to Landlord within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of Landlord’s consent, the consent shall be deemed null and void and the provisions of Section 5.6.1 shall be applicable.

5.6.4

Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5.6, 5.6.2, 5.6.3 and 5.6.5, but subject to the provisions of Sections 5.6.1 and 5.6.6, Tenant shall have the right:

(x) to assign this Lease or to sublet the Premises (in whole or in part) to any other entity (the “Successor Entity”) (i) which controls or is controlled by Tenant or Tenant’s parent corporation or which is under common control with Tenant, provided that such transfer or transaction is for a legitimate business purpose of Tenant other than a transfer of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, or (ii) which purchases all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, or (iii) which purchases all or substantially all of the stock of (or other ownership or membership interests in) Tenant or (iv) which merges or combines with Tenant, or

Page 26

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

(y) to effect a Series Reorganization, or

(z) to engage in a Majority Interest Transfer,

provided that in any of the foregoing events described in clauses (y) and (z) above, the transaction is for a legitimate business purpose of Tenant other than the limitation or segregation of the liabilities of Tenant, and provided further that in any of the foregoing events described in in (x), (y) and (z) the entity to which this Lease is so assigned or which so sublets the Premises or the series established by the Series Reorganization possesses adequate financial capability to perform the obligations of the Tenant under this Lease as and when due or required (the foregoing transferees referred to, individually or collectively, as a “Permitted Transferee”). Except in cases of statutory merger or a Series Reorganization, in which case the surviving entity in the merger or the series to which this Lease has been designated shall be liable as the Tenant under this Lease, Tenant shall continue to remain fully liable under this Lease, on a joint and several basis with the Permitted Transferee. If any parent, affiliate or subsidiary of Tenant to which this Lease is assigned or the Premises sublet (in whole or in part) shall cease to be such a parent, affiliate or subsidiary, such cessation shall be considered an assignment or subletting requiring Landlord’s consent.

5.6.5

In the case of any assignment or subleasing as to which Landlord may consent (other than an assignment or subletting permitted under Section 5.6.4 above) such consent shall be upon the express and further condition, covenant and agreement, and Tenant hereby covenants and agrees that, in addition to the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other charges to be paid pursuant to this Lease, fifty percent (50%) of the “Assignment/Sublease Profits” (hereinafter defined), if any, shall be paid to Landlord. The “Assignment/Sublease Profits” shall be the excess, if any, of (a) the “Assignment/Sublease Net Revenues” as hereinafter defined over (b) the Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent and other charges provided in this Lease (provided, however, that for the purpose of calculating the Assignment/Sublease Profits in the case of a sublease, appropriate prorations in the applicable Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other charges under this Lease shall be made based on the percentage of the Premises subleased and on the terms of the sublease). The “Assignment/Sublease Net Revenues” shall be the fixed rent, Additional Rent and all other charges and sums payable either initially or over the term of the sublease or assignment plus all other profits and increases to be derived by Tenant as a result of such subletting or assignment, less the reasonable costs of Tenant incurred in such subleasing or assignment (the definition of which shall be limited to brokerage commissions, legal fees and alteration allowances, in each case actually paid), as set forth in a statement certified by an appropriate officer of Tenant and delivered to Landlord within thirty (30) days of the full execution of the sublease or assignment document, amortized over the term of the sublease or assignment.

All payments of the Assignment/Sublease Profits due Landlord shall be made within thirty (30) days of receipt of same by Texxxx.

5.6.6

(A) It shall be a condition of the validity of any assignment or subletting consented to under Section 5.6.3 above, or any assignment or subletting of right under Section 5.6.4 above, that both Tenant and the assignee or sublessee enter into a separate written instrument directly with Landlord in a form and containing terms and provisions reasonably required by Landlord, including, without limitation, the agreement of the assignee or sublessee to be bound directly to Landlord for all the obligations of the Tenant under this Lease (including any amendments or extensions thereof), including, without limitation, the obligation (a) to pay the rent and other amounts provided for under this Lease (but in the case of a partial subletting pursuant to Section 5.6.4, such subtenant shall agree on a pro rata basis to be so bound), (b) to comply with the provisions of Sections 5.6 through 5.6.6 hereof and (c) to indemnify the “Landlord Parties” (as defined in Section 8.13) as provided in Section 8.1 hereof. Such assignment or subletting shall not relieve the Tenant named herein of any of the obligations of the Tenant hereunder and Texxxx xhall remain fully and primarily liable therefor and the liability of Tenant and such assignee (or subtenant, as the case may be) shall be joint and several. Further, and notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions hereof shall not constitute a recognition of the sublease or the subtenant thereunder, as the case may be, and at Landlord’s option, upon the termination or expiration of the Lease (whether such termination is based upon a cause beyond Tenant’s control, a default of Tenant, the agreement of Tenant and Landlord or any other reason), the sublease shall be terminated.

(B) As Additional Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as a fee for Landlord’s review of any proposed assignment or sublease requested by Texxxx xnd the preparation of any associated documentation in connection therewith, within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord, an amount the reasonable out of pocket legal fees or other expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with such request, not to exceed $1,500 per request.

(C) If this Lease be assigned, or if the Premises or any part thereof be sublet or occupied by anyone other than Tenant, Landlord may upon prior notice to Tenant, at any time and from time to time, collect rent and other charges from the assignee, sublessee or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the rent and other charges herein reserved, but no such assignment, subletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant, or a waiver of the provisions of Sections 5.6 through 5.6.6 hereof, or the acceptance of the assignee, sublessee or occupant as a tenant or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained, the Tenant herein named to remain primarily liable under this Lease.

(D) The consent by Laxxxxxx xo an assignment or subletting under Section 5.6.3 above, or the consummation of an assignment or subletting of right under Section 5.6.4 above, shall in no way be construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining the express consent in writing of Landlord to any further assignment or subletting.

(E) On or after the occurrence of an “Event of Default” (defined in Section 7.1), Landlord shall be entitled to one hundred percent (100%) of any Assignment/Sublease Profits.

(F) Without limiting Tenant’s obligations under Section 5.12, Tenant shall be responsible, at Texxxx’s sole cost and expense, for performing all work necessary to comply with Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements in connection with any assignment or subletting hereunder including, without limitation, any work in connection with such assignment or subletting.

5.6.7

In addition to the other requirements set forth in this Lease and notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, partial sublettings of the Premises shall only be permitted under the following terms and conditions: (i) the layout of both the subleased premises and the remainder of the Premises must comply with applicable Legal Requirements and be approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, including, without limitation, all requirements concerning access and egress; (ii) in the event the subleased premises are separately physically demised from the remainder of the Premises, Tenant shall pay all costs of separately physically demising the subleased premises; and (iii) in no event may Tenant have more than two (2) sublettings in effect at any given time.

5.7	Right of Entry

To permit Landlord and its agents to examine the Premises at (i) reasonable times and upon reasonable notice (which shall be at least 24 hours’ notice), (ii) accompanied by a representative of Tenant if Tenant so elects, and (iii) in compliance with Tenant’s reasonable security requirements of which Landlord has been provided prior written notice (clauses (i) through (iii) collectively, the “Entry Requirements”) and, if Landlord shall so elects, in compliance the Entry Requirements, (x) to make any repairs or replacements required of Landlord under this Lease or which Landlord may deem reasonably necessary, (y) to remove, at Tenant’s expense, to the extent any such item requires the consent of Landlord under this Lease, any alterations, addition, signs, curtains, blinds, shades, awnings, aerials, flagpoles, or the like not permitted hereunder or otherwise consented to in writing, or (z) to show the Premises to prospective tenants during the eleven (11) months preceding expiration of the Term and to prospective purchasers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the building superintendent and those individuals involved in the regular maintenance of the Building shall not be subject to the Entry Requirements. Further notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, in the event of an emergency that could cause damage to health, safety or property, Landlord shall use good faith efforts to follow Tenant’s Entry Requirements and in such event Landlord will be required to give only such notice that it in good faith believes is feasible under the circumstances and need not wait to be accompanied by Tenant or its employees or representatives (although these parties may still accompany Landlord if they are available and wish to do so). Tenant’s failure to provide a representative at the time of entry by Landlord shall not limit Landlord’s rights hereunder.

In the event Tenant sends a notice alleging the existence of a dangerous or unsafe condition, any requirements for prior notice or limitations on Landlord’s access to the Premises contained in this Lease shall be deemed waived by Tenant so that Landlord may immediately exercise its rights under this Section 5.7 and Section 9.16 in such manner as Landlord reasonably deems necessary in its sole discretion to remedy such dangerous or unsafe condition.

In addition, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly comply with any Legal Requirements that relate to the Base Building (as hereinafter defined), but only to the extent such obligations are triggered by Tenant’s specific use of the Premises, other than for general office use, or alterations, additions or improvements in the Premises performed or requested by Texxxx. “Base Building” shall mean and be limited to the structural portions of the Building including the foundation, the entrances and exits to the Building, the restrooms and the Building mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems and equipment located in the internal core of the Building.

5.12	Alterations

Tenant shall not make alterations and additions to Tenant’s Premises except in accordance with plans and specifications therefor first approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. However, Laxxxxxx’s determination of matters relating to aesthetic issues relating to alterations, additions or improvements which are visible outside the Premises shall be in Landlord’s sole discretion. Without limiting such standard Landlord shall not be deemed unreasonable for withholding approval of any alterations or additions (including, without limitation, any alterations or additions to be performed by Tenant under Article III) which (a) in Landlord’s opinion might adversely affect any structural or exterior element of the Building, any area or element outside of the Premises, or any facility or base building mechanical system serving any area of the Building outside of the Premises, or (b) involve or affect the exterior design, size, height, or other exterior dimensions of the Building or (c) will require unusual expense to readapt the Premises to normal office use on Lease termination or expiration or increase the cost of construction or of insurance or taxes on the Building or of the services called for by Section 4.1 unless Tenant first gives assurance acceptable to Landlord for payment of such increased cost and that such readaptation will be made prior to such termination or expiration without expense to Landlord, (d) enlarge the Rentable Floor Area of the Premises, or (e) are inconsistent, in Landlord’s judgment, with alterations satisfying Landlord’s standards for new alterations in the Building. Landlord’s review and approval of any such plans and specifications and consent to perform work described therein shall not be deemed an agreement by Landlord that such plans, specifications and work conform with applicable Legal Requirements and requirements of insurers of the Building and the other requirements of this Lease with respect to Tenant’s insurance obligations (herein called “Insurance Requirements”) nor deemed a waiver of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease with respect to applicable Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements nor impose any liability or obligation upon Landlord with respect to the completeness, design sufficiency or compliance of such plans, specifications and work with applicable Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements nor give right to any other parties. Landlord shall respond to Texxxx’s request for consent to any alterations, additions or improvements within fifteen (15) days after receipt of plans and specifications for the same, including, providing details on any reasons for disapproval, and Landlord shall respond to any resubmissions with respect to such alterations, additions or improvements within seven (7) days. Further, Tenant acknowledges that Tenant is acting for its own benefit and account, and that Tenant shall not be acting as Landlord’s agent in performing any work in the Premises, accordingly, no contractor, subcontractor or supplier shall have a right to lien Laxxxxxx’s interest in the Complex in connection with any work. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as a fee for Landlord’s review of any work or plans, as Additional Rent, all reasonable third party expenses incurred by Landlord to review Texxxx’s plans and Texxxx’s work. Except for any additions or alterations which Tenant requests to remain in the Premises in Tenant’s notice seeking Landlord’s consent for the installation thereof (which notice shall specifically refer to this Section 5.12) and for which Landlord specifically agrees in writing may remain, all alterations and additions shall be part of the Building unless and until Landlord shall specify the same for removal pursuant to Section 5.2. It is agreed that in no event shall Tenant be obligated to remove any of Landlord’s Work, nor shall Tenant be required to remove any of Tenant’s Work except to the extent Landlord reasonably determines such improvements will materially impair the future marketability of the Premises for office and light manufacturing use and Landlord notifies Tenant in writing that Landlord will require removal of such improvements at the time Landlord approves Tenant’s Plans. All of Tenant’s alterations and additions and installation of furnishings shall be coordinated with any work being performed by Landlord and in such manner as to maintain harmonious labor relations and not to damage the Buildings or Site or interfere with construction or operation of the Buildings and other improvements to the Site and, except for installation of furnishings, shall be performed by a general contractor or by contractors or workers selected by Tenant and approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Except for work by Xxxxxxxx’s general contractor, Tenant, before its work is started, shall secure all licenses and permits necessary therefor; deliver to Landlord a statement of the names of all its contractors and subcontractors and the estimated cost of all labor and material to be furnished by them and security satisfactory to Landlord protecting Landlord against liens arising out of the furnishing of such labor and material; and cause each contractor to carry insurance in accordance with Section 8.14 herein and to deliver to Landlord certificates of all such insurance. Tenant shall also prepare and submit to Landlord a set of as-built plans, in both print and electronic forms, showing such work performed by Tenant to the Premises promptly after any such alterations, improvements or installations are substantially complete and promptly after any wiring or cabling for Tenant’s computer, telephone and other communications systems is installed by Tenant or Xxxxxx’s contractor. Without limiting any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, Tenant shall be responsible, as Additional Rent, for the costs of any alterations, additions or improvements in or to the Building that are required in order to comply with Legal Requirements as a result of any work performed by Xxxxxx. Landlord shall have the right to provide such reasonable rules and regulations relative to the performance of any alterations, additions, improvements and installations by Tenant hereunder and Tenant shall abide by all such reasonable rules and regulations and shall cause all of its contractors to so abide including, without limitation, payment for the costs of using Building services provided such rules and regulations are delivered to Tenant no later than the date on which Landlord consents to the same hereunder (or if consent is not required, then provided the same are delivered to Tenant within five (5) days after Tenant notifies Landlord of its intent to perform the same). Xxxxxx agrees to pay promptly when due the entire cost of any work done on the Premises by Xxxxxx, its agents, employees, or independent contractors, and not to cause or permit any liens for labor or materials performed or furnished in connection therewith to attach to the Premises or the Buildings or the Site and discharge any such liens which may so attach within fifteen (15) days after notice thereof. Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, 100% of any real estate taxes on the Complex which shall, at any time after commencement of the Term, result from any alteration, addition or improvement to the Premises made by Tenant. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall be the owner of any additions, alterations and improvements in the Premises or the Building to the extent paid for by Landlord.

6.1	Damage Resulting From Casualty

In case the Building or the Site are damaged by fire or casualty and such fire or casualty damage cannot, in the ordinary course, reasonably be expected to be repaired within two hundred forty (240) days from the date of fire or casualty as certified by Landlord’s architect (the “Certification”), Landlord or Tenant may, each at its election, terminate this Lease by notice given to the other within sixty (60) days after the receipt of the Certification, specifying the effective date of termination.

Page 34

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

In case during the last year of the Lease Term, the Premises are damaged by fire or casualty and such fire or casualty damage cannot, in the ordinary course, reasonably be expected to be repaired within one hundred twenty (120) days (and/or as to special work or work which requires long lead time then if such work cannot reasonably be expected to be repaired within such additional time as is reasonable under the circumstances given the nature of the work) from the date of such fire or casualty, Tenant may, at its election, terminate this Lease by notice given to Landlord within sixty (60) days after the date of such fire or other casualty, specifying the effective date of termination. The effective date of termination specified by Tenant shall be not less than thirty (30) days nor more than forty-five (45) days after the date of notice of such termination.

Unless terminated pursuant to the foregoing provisions, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect following any such damage subject, however, to the following provisions.

If the Building or the Site or any part thereof are damaged by fire or other casualty and this Lease is not so terminated, or Landlord or Tenant have no right to terminate this Lease, and in any such case the holder of any mortgage which includes the Building as a part of the mortgaged premises or any ground lessor of any ground lease which includes the Site as part of the demised premises allows the net insurance proceeds to be applied to the restoration of the Building (and/or the Site), Landlord promptly after such damage and the determination of the net amount of insurance proceeds available, shall use due diligence to restore the Premises and the Building in the event of damage thereto (excluding “Tenant’s Property” (as defined in Section 8.4 hereof), except as expressly provided in the immediately following paragraph of this Section 6.1) into proper condition for use and occupation and a just proportion of the Annual Fixed Rent, Tenant’s payments towards Landlord’s Operating Expenses and Landlord’s Tax Expenses according to the nature and extent of the injury to the Premises shall be abated until the Premises shall have been put by Landlord substantially into such condition except for punch list items and long lead items. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, Landlord shall not be obligated to expend for such repair and restoration any amount in excess of the net insurance proceeds.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord is proceeding with the restoration of the Building and the Premises in accordance with the previous paragraph, Landlord shall also restore any alterations, additions or improvements within the Premises that are part of Tenant’s Property (x) which have previously been approved by Landlord in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Lease or which are existing in the Premises as of the date of this Lease, and (y) with respect to which Tenant has carried “all risk” insurance covering the loss or damage in accordance with Section 8.4 below and pays the proceeds of such insurance (or an amount equivalent thereto) to Landlord within five (5) business days following Landlord’s written request to the extent Tenant has actually received the same; provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord be required to fund any insufficiency in the insurance proceeds (or equivalent amount) provided by Tenant with respect to such loss or damage (or to fund any of the costs of restoration in the absence of any payment by Tenant).

Page 35

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if such restoration is not completed within the greater of (i) two hundred and forty (240) days from the date of the casualty or taking, or (ii) the period stated by Xxxxxxxx’s architect in the Certification (the longer of such periods being the “Restoration Period”), such period to be subject, however, to extension where the delay in completion of such work is due to Force Majeure, as defined hereinbelow, (but in no event beyond twelve (12) months from the date of the casualty or taking), Tenant, as its sole and exclusive remedy, shall have the right to terminate this Lease at any time after the expiration of such Restoration Period (as so extended) period until the restoration is substantially completed, such termination to take effect as of the thirtieth (30^th) day after the date of receipt by Landlord of Tenant’s notice, with the same force and effect as if such date were the date originally established as the expiration date hereof and neither party shall have any further liability except as expressly stated herein to so survive such expiration or earlier termination hereof unless, within thirty (30) days after Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of Tenant’s notice, such restoration is substantially completed, in which case Tenant’s notice of termination shall be of no force and effect and this Lease and the Lease Term shall continue in full force and effect. When used herein, “Force Majeure” shall mean any prevention, delay or stoppage due to governmental regulation, strikes, lockouts, acts of God, acts of war, terrorists acts, civil commotions, unusual scarcity of or inability to obtain labor or materials, labor difficulties, fire or other casualty (including the time necessary to repair any damage caused thereby) or other causes reasonably beyond Landlord’s control or attributable to Tenant’s action or inaction.

6.2	Uninsured Casualty

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if the Building or the Premises shall be substantially damaged by fire or casualty as the result of a risk not required to be maintained by Landlord and such fire or casualty damage cannot, in the ordinary course, reasonably be expected to be repaired within ninety (90) days from the time that repair work would commence, Landlord may, at its election, terminate the Term of this Lease by notice to the Tenant given within sixty (60) days after such loss. If Landlord shall give such notice, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such notice with the same force and effect as if such date were the date originally established as the expiration date hereof and neither party shall have any further liability except as expressly stated herein to so survive such expiration or earlier termination hereof.

6.3	Rights of Termination for Taking

If the entire Building, or such portion of the Premises as to render the balance (if reconstructed to the maximum extent practicable in the circumstances) unsuitable for Tenant’s purposes, shall be taken by condemnation or right of eminent domain, Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by notice to the other of its desire to do so, provided that such notice is given not later than thirty (30) days after Tenant has been deprived of possession. If either party shall give such notice, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such notice with the same force and effect as if such date were the date originally established as the expiration date hereof and neither party shall have any further liability except as expressly stated herein to so survive such expiration or earlier termination hereof.

Further, if so much of the Building shall be so taken that continued operation of the Building would be uneconomic as a result of the taking, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant of Landlord’s desire to do so not later than thirty (30) days after Xxxxxx has been deprived of possession of the Premises (or such portion thereof as may be taken). If Landlord shall give such notice, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such notice with the same force and effect as if such date were the date originally established as the expiration date hereof.

Should any part of the Premises be so taken or condemned during the Lease Term hereof, and should this Lease not be terminated in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and the holder of any mortgage which includes the Premises as part of the mortgaged premises or any ground lessor of any ground lease which includes the Site as part of the demised premises allows the net condemnation proceeds to be applied to the restoration of the Building, Landlord agrees that after the determination of the net amount of condemnation proceeds available to Landlord, Landlord shall use due diligence to put what may remain of the Premises into proper condition for use and occupation as nearly like the condition of the Premises prior to such taking as shall be practicable (excluding Tenant’s Property). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be obligated to expend for such repair and restoration any amount in excess of the net condemnation proceeds made available to it.

If the Premises shall be affected by any exercise of the power of eminent domain, then the Annual Fixed Rent shall be justly and equitably abated and reduced according to the nature and extent of the loss of use thereof suffered by Tenant; and in case of a taking which permanently reduces the Rentable Floor Area of the Premises, a just proportion of the Annual Fixed Rent shall be abated for the remainder of the Lease Term.

6.4

Award

Landlord shall have and hereby reserves to itself any and all rights to receive awards made for damages to the Premises, the Building, the Complex and the Site and the leasehold hereby created, or any one or more of them, accruing by reason of exercise of eminent domain or by reason of anything lawfully done in pursuance of public or other authority. Tenant hereby grants, releases and assigns to Landlord all Tenant’s rights to such awards, and covenants to execute and deliver such further assignments and assurances thereof as Landlord may from time to time reasonably request.

Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prevent Tenant from prosecuting in any condemnation proceeding a claim for the value of any of Tenant’s usual trade fixtures installed in the Premises by Tenant at Tenant’s expense and for relocation and moving expenses, provided that such action and any resulting award shall not affect or diminish the amount of compensation otherwise recoverable by Landlord from the taking authority.

Landlord lawfully may, immediately or at any time thereafter, and without demand or further notice terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant, specifying a date not less than ten (10) days after the giving of such notice on which this Lease shall terminate, and this Lease shall come to an end on the date specified therein as fully and completely as if such date were the date herein originally fixed for the expiration of the Lease Term (Tenant hereby waiving any rights of redemption), and Tenant will then quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord, but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided.

(b)

If this Lease shall have been terminated as provided in this Article, then Landlord may, without notice, re- enter the Premises, either by force, summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and remove and dispossess Tenant and all other persons and any and all property from the same, as if this Lease had not been made, and Tenant hereby waives the service of notice of intention to re-enter or to institute legal proceedings to that end.

(c)

In the event that this Lease is terminated under any of the provisions contained in Section 7.1 (a) or shall be otherwise terminated by breach of any obligation of Tenant, Tenant covenants and agrees forthwith to pay and be liable for, on the days originally fixed herein for the payment thereof, amounts equal to the several installments of rent and other charges reserved as they would, under the terms of this Lease, become due if this Lease had not been terminated or if Landlord had not entered or re-entered, as aforesaid, and whether the Premises be relet or remain vacant, in whole or in part, or for a period less than the remainder of the Term, and for the whole thereof, but in the event the Premises be relet by Landlord, Tenant shall be entitled to a credit in the net amount of rent and other charges received by Landlord in reletting, after deduction of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in reletting the Premises (including, without limitation, remodeling costs, brokerage fees and the like), and in collecting the rent in connection therewith, in the following manner:

Amounts received by Landlord after reletting shall first be applied against such Landlord’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, until the same are recovered, and until such recovery, Tenant shall pay, as of each day when a payment would fall due under this Lease, the amount which Tenant is obligated to pay under the terms of this Lease (Tenant’s liability prior to any such reletting and such recovery not in any way to be diminished as a result of the fact that such reletting might be for a rent higher than the rent provided for in this Lease); when and if such expenses have been completely recovered, the amounts received from reletting by Landlord as have not previously been applied shall be credited against Xxxxxx’s obligations as of each day when a payment would fall due under this Lease, and only the net amount thereof shall be payable by Tenant. Further, amounts received by Landlord from such reletting for any period shall be credited only against obligations of Tenant allocable to such period, and shall not be credited against obligations of Tenant hereunder accruing subsequent or prior to such period; nor shall any credit of any kind be due for any period after the date when the term of this Lease is scheduled to expire according to its terms.

Xxxxxxxx agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate Landlord’s damages following an Event of Default, including the use of commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises after Tenant vacates the same in the event this Lease is terminated based upon an Event of Default by Tenant hereunder. The marketing of the Premises in a manner similar to the manner in which Landlord markets other premises in buildings owned by Landlord or its affiliates in the Boston West Suburban market shall be deemed to have satisfied Landlord’s obligation to use “reasonable efforts” hereunder. In no event shall Landlord be required to (i) solicit or entertain negotiations with any other prospective tenant for the Premises until Landlord obtains full and complete possession of the Premises (including, without limitation, the final and unappealable legal right to relet the Premises free of any claim of Tenant), (ii) relet the Premises before leasing other comparable space in buildings owned by Landlord or its affiliates in the vicinity of the Building, or (iii) lease the Premises for a rental less than the current fair market rent then prevailing for similar office and laboratory space in buildings owned by Landlord or its affiliates in the vicinity of the Building.

(d)

(i) In the alternative, Landlord may elect, by notice given to Tenant at any time after such termination and whether or not Landlord shall have collected any damages under subsection (c) above, but as liquidated final damages and in lieu of all other damages beyond the date of such notice, to require Tenant to pay such a sum as at the time of the giving of such notice represents the amount of the excess, if any, of (a) the discounted present value, at a discount rate of 6%, of the total rent and other charges which would have been payable by Tenant under this Lease from the date of such notice for what would be the then unexpired Lease Term if the Lease terms had been fully complied with by Tenant over and above, (b) the discounted present value, at a discount rate of 6%, of the total rent and other charges that would be received by Landlord if the Premises were released at the time of such notice for the remainder of the Lease Term at the fair market value (including provisions regarding periodic increases in rent if such are applicable) prevailing at the time of such notice as reasonably determined by Landlord, plus all expenses which Landlord may have incurred with respect to the collection of such damages.

(ii) For the purposes of this Article, if Landlord elects to require Tenant to pay damages in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph, the total rent shall be computed by assuming that Landlord’s Operating Expenses, and Xxxxxxxx’s Tax

Expenses would be, for the balance of the unexpired Term from the date of such notice, the amount thereof (if any) for the immediately preceding annual period payable by Tenant to Landlord.

(e)

In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (i) re-let the Premises or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option be equal to or less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term of this Lease and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Xxxxxxxx considers advisable or necessary to re-let the same and (ii) may make such alterations, repairs and decorations in the Premises as Landlord in its reasonable judgment considers advisable or necessary for the purpose of reletting the Premises; and the making of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid. Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for failure to re-let the Premises, or, in the event that the Premises are re-let, for failure to collect the rent under reletting provided Landlord uses commercially reasonable efforts in connection with same as provided in subsection (c) above. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Premises, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and conditions of this Lease.

Page 40

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

(f)

The specified remedies to which Landlord may resort hereunder are not intended to be exclusive of any remedies or means of redress to which Landlord may at any time be entitled lawfully, and Landlord may invoke any remedy (including the remedy of specific performance) allowed at law or in equity as if specific remedies were not herein provided for. Further, nothing contained in this Lease shall limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove for and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency by reason of the termination of this Lease, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to above.

(g)

In lieu of any other damages or indemnity and in lieu of the recovery by Landlord of all sums payable under all the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1, Landlord may elect to collect from Tenant, by notice to Tenant given to Tenant at the time of termination, and Tenant shall thereupon pay, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to the sum of the Annual Fixed Rent and all Additional Rent payable for the twelve (12) months ended next prior to such termination plus the amount of Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent of any kind accrued and unpaid at the time of such termination plus any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses which the Landlord may have incurred for and with respect of the collection of any of such rent.

7.2	Landlord’s Default

Landlord shall never be liable for any failure to make repairs which, under the provisions of this Lease, Landlord has undertaken to make unless:

(a) Tenant has given notice to Landlord of the need to make such repairs, or of a condition in the Building or in the Premises requiring any repair for which Landlord is responsible; and

(b) Landlord has failed to commence to make such repairs within a reasonable time after receipt of such notice.

In the event Landlord fails to make such repairs as are required of Landlord within thirty (30) days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord and to the holder of any mortgage on the Premises of which Xxxxxxxx has given Tenant notice or of which Xxxxxx has actual notice, specifying the nature of such repairs (or if such repairs are of the type which cannot be completed within thirty (30) days, then if Landlord or the holder of any such mortgage (at the option of such mortgagee) fails to (i) commence making such repairs within thirty (30) days after such written notice from Tenant and (ii) thereafter prosecute such repairs to completion with due diligence given the nature of such repairs), then thereafter at any time prior to Landlord’s or such mortgagee’s commencing such repairs or subsequent to Landlord or such mortgagee commencing such repairs if Landlord or such mortgagee has not prosecuted such repairs to completion with due diligence given the nature of such repairs, Tenant may, but need not, make such repairs and charge the reasonable cost thereof to Landlord, and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for such reasonable costs within thirty (30) days of receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice for the same; provided, however, that in the case of emergency repairs (i) such notice by Tenant to Landlord and such mortgagee need not be in writing, and (ii) Tenant may make such emergency repairs and charge the reasonable cost thereof to Landlord if either Landlord or such mortgagee has not made such emergency repairs within a reasonable time after such notice. However, in no event shall Tenant have the right to offset against, withhold or deduct from Annual Fixed Rent or additional rent payable under this Lease for any reason relating to this Section.

Tenant shall pay such indemnified amounts as they are incurred by the Landlord Parties. This indemnification shall not be construed to deny or reduce any other rights or obligations of indemnity that any of the Landlord Parties may have under this Lease or the common law. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall Tenant be obligated to indemnify Landlord for any claims, costs, fees, disbursements, damages or otherwise arising to the extent of Landlord’s or any of Landlord’s Parties’ negligence or willful misconduct.

(b) No limitation. The indemnification obligations under this Section 8.1 shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for Tenant or any subtenant or other occupant of the Premises under workers’ compensation acts, disability benefit acts, or other employee benefit acts.

Page 42

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

(c) Subtenants and other occupants. Tenant shall require its subtenants and other occupants of the Premises to provide similar indemnities to the Landlord Parties in a form acceptable to Landlord.

(d) Survival. The terms of this Section 8.1 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Lease.

(e) Costs. The foregoing indemnity and hold harmless agreement shall include indemnity for all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Landlord Parties in connection with any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon, and the defense thereof. In addition, in the event that any action or proceeding shall be brought against one or more Landlord Parties by reason of any such claim, Tenant, upon request from the Landlord Party, shall resist and defend such action or proceeding on behalf of the Landlord Party by counsel appointed by Xxxxxx’s insurer (if such claim is covered by insurance without reservation) or otherwise by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord Party. The Landlord Parties shall not be bound by any compromise or settlement of any such claim, action or proceeding without the prior written consent of such Landlord Parties, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(f) Landlord Parties and Tenant Parties. The term “Landlord Party” or “Landlord Parties” shall mean Landlord, any affiliate of Landlord, Xxxxxxxx’s managing agents for the Building, each mortgagee (if any), each ground lessor (if any), and each of their respective direct or indirect partners, officers, shareholders, directors, members, trustees, beneficiaries, servants, employees, principals, contractors, licensees, agents or representatives. For the purposes of this Lease, the term “Tenant Party” or “Tenant Parties” shall mean Tenant, any affiliate of Tenant, any permitted subtenant or any other permitted occupant of the Premises, and each of their respective direct or indirect partners, officers, shareholders, directors, members, trustees, beneficiaries, servants, employees, principals, contractors, licensees, agents, invitees or representatives.

Tenant shall provide notice of any such third party claim to Landlord as soon as practicable. Landlord shall have the right, but not the duty, to defend the claim. The provisions of this Section shall not be applicable to (i) the holder of any mortgage now or hereafter on the Complex or Building (whether or not such holder shall be a mortgagee in possession of or shall have exercised any rights under a conditional, collateral or other assignment of leases and/or rents respecting the Complex or Building), or (ii) any person acquiring title as a result of, or subsequent to, a foreclosure of any such mortgage or a deed in lieu of foreclosure, except to the extent of liability insurance maintained by either of the foregoing.

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

8.2	Tenant’s Risk

Xxxxxx agrees to use and occupy the Premises, and to use such other portions of the Complex as Tenant is given the right to use by this Lease at Tenant’s own risk. Except as expressly set forth otherwise to the contrary in this Lease, the Landlord Parties shall not be liable to the Tenant Parties for any damage, injury, loss, compensation, or claim (including, but not limited to, claims for the interruption of or loss to a Tenant Party’s business) based on, arising out of or resulting from any cause whatsoever, including, but not limited to, repairs to any portion of the Premises or the Building or the Complex, any fire, robbery, theft, mysterious disappearance, or any other crime or casualty, the actions of any other person or persons, or any leakage in any part or portion of the Premises or the Building or the Complex, or from water, rain or snow that may leak into, or flow from any part of the Premises or the Building or the Complex, or from drains, pipes or plumbing fixtures in the Building or the Complex. Any goods, property or personal effects stored or placed in or about the Premises shall be at the sole risk of the Tenant Party, and neither the Landlord Parties nor their insurers shall in any manner be held responsible therefor. The Landlord Parties shall not be responsible or liable to a Tenant Party, or to those claiming by, through or under a Tenant Party, for any loss or damage that may be occasioned by or through the acts or omissions of persons occupying adjoining premises or any part of the premises adjacent to or connecting with the Premises or any part of the Building or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Landlord Parties shall not be released from liability for any injury, loss, damages or liability to the extent arising from any negligence or willful misconduct of the Landlord Parties on or about the Premises; provided, however, in no event shall the Landlord Parties have any liability to a Tenant Party based on any loss with respect to or interruption in the operation of Tenant’s business. The provisions of this section shall be applicable to the fullest extent permitted by law, and until the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, and during such further period as any of Tenant’s Property remains on the Premises, or Tenant or anyone acting by, through or under Tenant may use, be in occupancy of any part of, or have access to the Premises or of the Building.

8.3	Tenant’s Commercial General Liability Insurance

Tenant agrees to maintain in full force on or before the earlier of (i) the date on which any Tenant Party first enters the Premises for any reason or (ii) the Commencement Date, and thereafter throughout and until the end of the Lease Term, and after the end of the Lease Term for so long as any of Tenant’s Property remains on the Premises, or Tenant or anyone acting by, through or under Tenant may use, be in occupancy of any part of, or have access to the Premises or any portion thereof, a policy of commercial general liability insurance, on an occurrence basis, issued on a form at least as broad as Insurance Services Office (“ISO”) Commercial General Liability Coverage “occurrence” form CG 00 01 10 01 or another Commercial General Liability “occurrence” form providing equivalent coverage. Such insurance shall include contractual liability coverage, specifically covering but not limited to the indemnification obligations undertaken by Tenant in this Lease. The minimum limits of liability of such insurance shall be $5,000,000 per occurrence, which may be satisfied through a combination of primary and excess/umbrella insurance. In addition, in the event Tenant hosts a function in the Premises, in the Building or on the Complex, Tenant agrees to obtain, and cause any persons or parties providing services for such function to obtain, the appropriate insurance coverages as determined by Landlord (including liquor liability coverage, if applicable) and provide Landlord with evidence of the same.

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

8.4	Tenant’s Property Insurance

Tenant shall maintain at all times during the Term of this Lease, and during such earlier or later time as Tenant may be performing work in or to the Premises or have property, fixtures, furniture, equipment, machinery, goods, supplies, wares or merchandise on the Premises, and continuing thereafter so long as any of Tenant’s Property, remains on the Premises, or Tenant or anyone acting by, through or under Tenant may use, be in occupancy of or have access to, any part of the Premises, business interruption insurance and insurance against loss or damage covered by the so-called “all risk” type insurance coverage with respect to (i) Tenant’s property, fixtures, furniture, equipment, machinery, goods, supplies, wares and merchandise, and other property of Tenant located at the Premises, (ii) all additions, alterations and improvements made by or on behalf of the Tenant in the Premises (except to the extent paid for by Landlord in connection with this Lease) or existing in the Premises as of the date of this Lease, and (iii) any property of third parties, including but not limited to leased or rented property, in the Premises in Tenant’s care, custody, use or control, provided that such insurance in the case of (iii) may be maintained by such third parties, (collectively “Tenant’s Property”). The business interruption insurance required by this section shall be in minimum amounts typically carried by prudent tenants engaged in similar operations, but in no event shall be in an amount less than the Annual Fixed Rent then in effect during any year during the Term, plus any Additional Rent due and payable for the immediately preceding year during the Term. The “all risk” insurance required by this section shall be in an amount at least equal to the full replacement cost of Tenant’s Property. In addition, during such time as Tenant is performing work in or to the Premises, Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall also maintain, or shall cause its contractor(s) to maintain, builder’s risk insurance for the full insurable value of such work. Landlord and such additional persons or entities as Landlord may reasonably request shall be named as loss payees, as their interests may appear, on the policy or policies required by this Lease, except for insurance maintained by third parties as provided in (iii) above. In the event of loss or damage covered by the “all risk” insurance required by this Lease, the responsibilities for repairing or restoring the loss or damage shall be determined in accordance with Article VI. To the extent that Landlord is obligated to pay for the repair or restoration of the loss or damage covered by the policy, Landlord shall be paid the proceeds of the “all risk” insurance covering the loss or damage. To the extent Tenant is obligated to pay for the repair or restoration of the loss or damage, covered by the policy, Tenant shall be paid the proceeds of the “all risk” insurance covering the loss or damage. If both Landlord and Tenant are obligated to pay for the repair or restoration of the loss or damage covered by the policy, the insurance proceeds shall be paid to each of them in the pro rata proportion of their obligations to repair or restore the loss or damage. If the loss or damage is not repaired or restored (for example, if the Lease is terminated pursuant to Article VI), the insurance proceeds shall be paid to Landlord and Tenant in the pro rata proportion of their relative contributions to the cost of the leasehold improvements covered by the policy.

8.5	Tenant’s Other Insurance

Tenant agrees to maintain in full force on or before the earlier of (i) the date on which any Tenant Party first enters the Premises for any reason or (ii) the Commencement Date, and thereafter throughout the end of the Term, and after the end of the Term for so long after the end of the Term any of Tenant’s Property remains on the Premises or as Tenant or anyone acting by, through or under Tenant may use, be in occupancy of, or have access to the Premises or any portion thereof, (1) comprehensive automobile liability insurance (covering any automobiles owned or operated by Tenant at the Site) issued on a form at least as broad as ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01 07 97 or other form providing equivalent coverage; (2) worker’s compensation insurance or participation in a monopolistic state workers’ compensation fund; and (3) employer’s liability insurance or (in a monopolistic state) Stop Gap Liability insurance.

8.6	Requirements for Tenant’s Insurance

All insurance required to be maintained by Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be maintained with responsible companies that are admitted to do business, and are in good standing in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and that have a rating of at least “A” and are within a financial size category of not less than “Class X” in the most current Best’s Key Rating Guide or such similar rating as may be reasonably selected by Landlord. All such insurance shall: (1) be acceptable in form and content to Landlord; (2) be primary and noncontributory (including all primary and excess/umbrella policies); and (3) contain an endorsement prohibiting cancellation, failure to renew, reduction of amount of insurance, or change in coverage without the insurer first giving Landlord thirty (30) days’ prior written notice (by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or by fax or email) of such proposed action. No such policy shall contain any self-insured retention greater than $100,000 for property insurance and $25,000 for commercial general liability insurance. Any deductibles and such self-insured retentions shall be deemed to be “insurance” for purposes of the waiver in Section 8.13 below. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to require Tenant to obtain higher minimum amounts of insurance based on such limits as are customarily carried with respect to similar properties in the area in which the Premises are located. The minimum amounts of insurance required by this Lease shall not be reduced by the payment of claims or for any other reason. In the event Tenant shall fail to obtain or maintain any insurance meeting the requirements of this Article, or to deliver such policies or certificates as required by this Article, Landlord may, at its option, on five (5) days’ notice to Tenant, procure such policies for the account of Tenant, and the cost thereof shall be paid to Landlord within five (5) days after delivery to Tenant of bills therefor.

8.7	Additional Insureds

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the commercial general liability and auto insurance carried by Tenant pursuant to this Lease, and any additional liability insurance carried by Tenant pursuant to Section 8.5 of this Lease or any other provision of this Lease, shall name Landlord, Xxxxxxxx’s managing agent, and such other persons as Landlord may reasonably request from time to time as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of or related to this Lease or the operations of Tenant (collectively “Additional Insureds”). Such insurance shall provide primary coverage without contribution from any other insurance carried by or for the benefit of Landlord, Xxxxxxxx’s managing agent, or other Additional Insureds. Such insurance shall also waive any right of subrogation against each Additional Insured. For the avoidance of doubt, each primary policy and each excess/umbrella policy through which Tenant satisfies its obligations under this Section 8.7 must provide coverage to the Additional Insureds that is primary and non-contributory.

8.8	Certificates of Insurance

On or before the earlier of (i) the date on which any Tenant Party first enters the Premises for any reason or (ii) the Commencement Date, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with certificates evidencing the insurance coverage required by this Lease, and renewal certificates shall be furnished to Landlord at least annually thereafter, and at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each policy for which a certificate was furnished (acceptable forms of such certificates for liability and property insurance, respectively, as of the date hereof, are attached as Exhibit H, however, other forms of certificates may satisfy the requirements of this Section 8.8) . In jurisdictions requiring mandatory participation in a monopolistic state workers’ compensation fund, the insurance certificate requirements for the coverage required for workers’ compensation will be satisfied by a letter from the appropriate state agency confirming participation in accordance with statutory requirements. Such current participation letters required by this Section 8.8 shall be provided every six (6) months for the duration of this Lease. Failure by the Tenant to provide the certificates or letters required by this Section 8.8 shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the requirements in this Section 8.8. Upon request by Xxxxxxxx, a true and complete copy of any insurance policy required by this Lease shall be delivered to Landlord within ten (10) days following Xxxxxxxx’s request.

8.9	Subtenants and Other Occupants

Tenant shall require its subtenants and other occupants of the Premises to provide written documentation evidencing the obligation of such subtenant or other occupant to indemnify the Landlord Parties to the same extent that Tenant is required to indemnify the Landlord Parties pursuant to Section 8.1 above, and to maintain insurance that meets the requirements of this Article, and otherwise to comply with the requirements of this Article, provided that the terms of this Section 8.9 shall not relieve Tenant of any of its obligations to comply with the requirements of this Article. Tenant shall require all such subtenants and occupants to supply certificates of insurance evidencing that the insurance requirements of this Article have been met and shall forward such certificates to Landlord on or before the earlier of (i) the date on which the subtenant or other occupant or any of their respective direct or indirect partners, officers, shareholders, directors, members, trustees, beneficiaries, servants, employees, principals, contractors, licensees, agents, invitees or representatives first enters the Premises or (ii) the commencement of the sublease. Tenant shall be responsible for identifying and remedying any deficiencies in such certificates or policy provisions.

8.10	No Violation of Building Policies

Tenant shall not commit or permit any violation of the policies of fire, boiler, sprinkler, water damage or other insurance covering the Complex and/or the fixtures, equipment and property therein carried by Landlord, or do or permit anything to be done, or keep or permit anything to be kept, in the Premises, which in case of any of the foregoing (i) would result in termination of any such policies, (ii) would adversely affect Landlord’s right of recovery under any of such policies, or (iii) would result in reputable and independent insurance companies refusing to insure the Complex or the property of Landlord in amounts reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. Xxxxxxxx xxxxxx confirms that Xxxxxx’s use of the Premises for the Permitted Uses does not violate any insurance coverage carried by Landlord.

8.11	Tenant to Pay Premium Increases

If, to the extent because of anything done, caused or permitted to be done, or omitted by Tenant (or its subtenant or other occupants of the Premises), the rates for liability, fire, boiler, sprinkler, water damage or other insurance on the Complex and equipment of Landlord or any other tenant or subtenant in the Building shall be higher than they otherwise would be, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the additional insurance premiums thereafter paid by Landlord which shall have been charged because of the aforesaid reasons, such reimbursement to be made from time to time within thirty (30) days after Xxxxxxxx’s demand.

8.12	Landlord’s Insurance

(a) Required insurance. Landlord shall maintain insurance against loss or damage with respect to the Building on an “all risk” type insurance form, with customary exceptions, subject to such deductibles and self-insured retentions as Landlord may determine, in an amount equal to at least the replacement value of the Building. Landlord shall also maintain such insurance with respect to any improvements, alterations, and fixtures of Tenant located at the Premises to the extent paid for by Landlord. Landlord shall also maintain loss of rents insurance insuring against the loss of monthly installments of Fixed Rent and the Additional Rent due under Sections 2.6 and 2.7 of this Lease for twelve (12) months in the case of both such Fixed Rent and Additional Rent. The cost of such insurance shall be treated as a part of Landlord’s Operating Expenses. Such insurance shall be maintained with an insurance company selected by Landlord. Payment for losses thereunder shall be made solely to Landlord.

(b) Optional insurance. Landlord may maintain such additional insurance with respect to the Building and the Complex, including, without limitation, earthquake insurance, terrorism insurance, flood insurance, and/or liability insurance, as Landlord may in its sole discretion elect. Landlord may also maintain such other insurance as may from time to time be required by the holder of any mortgage on the Building or Complex. The reasonable out of pocket cost of all such additional insurance shall also be part of the Landlord’s Operating Expenses.

(c) Blanket and self-insurance. Any or all of Landlord’s insurance may be provided by blanket coverage maintained by Landlord or any affiliate of Landlord under its insurance program for its portfolio of properties, or by Landlord or any affiliate of Landlord under a program of self-insurance, and in such event Landlord’s Operating Expenses shall include the portion of the commercially reasonable cost of blanket insurance or self-insurance that is allocated to the Building.

(d) No obligation. Landlord shall not be obligated to insure, and shall not assume any liability of risk of loss for, Xxxxxx’s Property, including any such property or work of Xxxxxx’s subtenants or occupants. Landlord will also have no obligation to carry insurance against, nor be responsible for, any loss suffered by Tenant, subtenants or other occupants due to interruption of Tenant’s or any subtenant’s or occupant’s business.

8.13	Waiver of Subrogation

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the parties hereto waive and release any and all rights of recovery against the other, and agree not to seek to recover from the other or to make any claim against the other, and in the case of Landlord, against all Tenant Parties, and in the case of Tenant, against all Landlord Parties, for any loss or damage incurred by the waiving/releasing party to the extent such loss or damage is insured under any insurance policy required by this Lease or which would have been so insured had the party carried the insurance it was required to carry hereunder. Tenant shall obtain from its subtenants and other occupants of the Premises a similar waiver and release of claims against any or all of Tenant or Landlord. In addition, the parties hereto (and in the case of Tenant, its subtenants and other occupants of the Premises) shall procure an appropriate clause in, or endorsement on, any insurance policy required by this Lease pursuant to which the insurance company waives subrogation. The insurance policies required by this Lease shall contain no provision that would invalidate or restrict the parties’ waiver and release of the rights of recovery in this section. The parties hereto covenant that no insurer shall hold any right of subrogation against the parties hereto by virtue of such insurance policy.

8.14	Tenant’s Work

During such times as Tenant is performing work or having work or services performed in or to the Premises, Tenant shall require its contractors, and their subcontractors of all tiers, to obtain and maintain commercial general liability, automobile, workers compensation, employer’s liability, builder’s risk, and equipment/property insurance in such amounts and on such terms as are customarily required of such contractors and subcontractors on similar projects. The amounts and terms of all such insurance are subject to Landlord’s written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The commercial general liability and auto insurance carried by Xxxxxx’s contractors and their subcontractors of all tiers pursuant to this Section 8.14 shall name the Additional Insureds as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of or related to their work or services. Such insurance shall provide primary coverage without contribution from any other insurance carried by or for the benefit of Landlord, Xxxxxxxx’s managing agent, or other Additional Insureds. Such insurance shall also waive any right of subrogation against each Additional Insured. Tenant shall obtain and submit to Landlord, prior to the earlier of (i) the entry onto the Premises by such contractors or subcontractors or (ii) commencement of the work or services, certificates of insurance evidencing compliance with the requirements of this Section 8.14.

ARTICLE IX

Miscellaneous Provisions

9.1

Waiver

No waiver by Landlord of any condition of this Lease, nor any failure by Tenant to deliver any security deposit, letter of credit, pre-paid rent, financial information, guaranty or other item required upon the execution and delivery of this Lease, shall be construed as excusing satisfaction of any such condition or the delivery of any such item by Tenant, and Landlord reserves the right to declare the failure of Tenant to satisfy any such condition or deliver any such item an Event of Default under this Lease. Further, no waiver at any time of any of the provisions hereof by Landlord or Tenant shall be construed as a waiver of any of the other provisions hereof, and a waiver at any time of any of the provisions hereof shall not be construed as a waiver at any subsequent time of the same provisions. The consent or approval of Landlord or Tenant to or of any action by the other requiring such consent or approval shall not be construed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord’s or Tenant’s consent or approval to or of subsequent similar act by the other.

No payment by Tenant, or acceptance by Landlord, of a lesser amount than shall be due from Tenant to Landlord shall be treated otherwise than as a payment on account. The acceptance by Landlord of a check for a lesser amount with an endorsement or statement thereon, or upon any letter accompanying such check, that such lesser amount is payment in full, shall be given no effect, and Landlord may accept such check without prejudice to any other rights or remedies which Landlord may have against Tenant.

In connection with any financing to be secured by Xxxxxx’s personal property, trade fixtures, inventory or stock-in-trade located on the Premises, Xxxxxxxx agrees to execute and deliver, within fifteen (15) days of Tenant’s written request therefor, a waiver and subordination of lien for the benefit of the holder of such indebtedness either in Landlord standard form with such commercially reasonable revisions as such holder may request.

9.2	Cumulative Remedies

Except as expressly provided in this Lease, the specific remedies to which Landlord or Tenant 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 such party may be lawfully entitled in case of any breach or threatened breach by the other party hereto of any provisions of this Lease. In addition to the other remedies provided in this Lease, the parties shall be entitled to the restraint by injunction of the violation or attempted or threatened violation of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease or to a decree compelling specific performance of any such covenants, conditions or provisions.

9.3	Quiet Enjoyment

This Lease is subject and subordinate to all matters of record. Tenant, subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease on payment of the rent and observing, keeping and performing all of the terms and provisions of this Lease on Tenant’s part to be observed, kept and performed, shall lawfully, peaceably and quietly have, hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises during the Term (exclusive of any period during which Tenant is holding over after the termination or expiration of this Lease without the consent of Landlord), without hindrance or ejection by any persons lawfully claiming under Landlord to have title to the Premises superior to Tenant, subject, however, to the terms of this Lease; the foregoing covenant of quiet enjoyment is in lieu of any other covenant, express or implied; and it is understood and agreed that this covenant and any and all other covenants of Landlord contained in this Lease shall be binding upon Landlord and Xxxxxxxx’s successors, including ground or master lessees, only with respect to breaches occurring during Landlord’s or Xxxxxxxx’s successors’ respective ownership of Xxxxxxxx’s interest hereunder, as the case may be.

Further, Xxxxxx specifically agrees to look solely to Xxxxxxxx’s then equity interest in the Building at the time owned, or in which Landlord holds an interest as ground lessee, together with income and proceeds therefrom, for recovery of any judgment from Landlord; it being specifically agreed that neither Landlord (original or successor), nor any beneficiary of any trust of which any person holding Landlord’s interest is trustee, nor any member, manager, partner, director or stockholder, nor Xxxxxxxx’s managing agent, shall ever be personally liable for any such judgment, or for the payment of any monetary obligation to Tenant. The provision contained in the foregoing sentence is not intended to, and shall not, limit any right that Tenant might otherwise have to obtain injunctive relief against Landlord or Landlord’s successors in interest, or any action not involving the personal liability of Landlord (original or successor), any successor trustee to the persons named herein as Landlord, or any beneficiary of any trust of which any person holding Landlord’s interest is trustee, or of any manager, member, partner, director or stockholder of Landlord or of Landlord’s managing agent to respond in monetary damages from Landlord’s assets other than Landlord’s equity interest aforesaid in the Building, but in no event shall Tenant have the right to terminate or cancel this Lease or to withhold rent or to set-off any claim or damages against rent as a result of any default by Landlord or breach by Landlord of its covenants or any warranties or promises hereunder, except in the case of a wrongful eviction of Tenant from the demised premises (constructive or actual) by Landlord continuing after notice to Landlord thereof and a reasonable opportunity for Landlord to cure the same. In no event shall Landlord or Tenant ever be liable to the other party for any indirect or consequential damages suffered from whatever cause; provided that the foregoing shall not limit or alter any procedural right or remedy of Landlord under this Lease nor shall the same apply to the obligations of Tenant with respect to any hold over by Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease of the obligations under Section 5.3 with respect to Hazardous Materials. In the event that Landlord shall be determined to have acted unreasonably in withholding any consent or approval under this Lease, the sole recourse and remedy of Tenant in respect thereof shall be to specifically enforce Landlord’s obligation to grant such consent or approval, and in no event shall the Landlord be responsible for any damages of whatever nature in respect of its failure to give such consent or approval nor shall the same otherwise affect the obligations of Tenant under this Lease or act as any termination of this Lease. No member, manager, partner, director, officers or stockholders of Tenant shall ever be personally liable under this Lease for any monetary obligation of Tenant.

9.4	Notice to Mortgagee and Ground Lessor

After receiving notice from any person, firm or other entity that it holds a mortgage which includes the Premises as part of the mortgaged premises, or that it is the ground lessor under a lease with Landlord, as ground lessee, which includes the Premises as a part of the demised premises, no notice from Tenant to Landlord shall be effective unless and until a copy of the same is given to such holder or ground lessor, and the curing of any of Xxxxxxxx’s defaults by such holder or ground lessor within a reasonable time thereafter (including a reasonable time to obtain possession of the premises if the mortgagee or ground lessor elects to do so) shall be treated as performance by Landlord. For the purposes of this Section 9.4 or Section 9.14, the term “mortgage” includes a mortgage on a leasehold interest of Landlord (but not one on Tenant’s leasehold interest).

9.5	Assignment of Rents

With reference to any assignment by Landlord of Landlord’s interest in this Lease, or the rents payable hereunder, conditional in nature or otherwise, which assignment is made to the holder of a mortgage or ground lease on property which includes the Premises, Tenant agrees:

(a)

That the execution thereof by Xxxxxxxx, and the acceptance thereof by the holder of such mortgage or the ground lessor, shall never be treated as an assumption by such holder or ground lessor of any of the obligations of Landlord hereunder, unless such holder, or ground lessor, shall, by notice sent to Tenant, or pursuant to an SNDA (as hereinafter defined), specifically otherwise elect; and

(b)

That, except as aforesaid, such holder or ground lessor shall be treated as having assumed Landlord’s obligations hereunder only upon foreclosure of such holder’s mortgage and the taking of possession of the Premises, or, in the case of a ground lessor, the assumption of Landlord’s position hereunder by such ground lessor.

In no event shall the acquisition of title to the Building and the land on which the same is located by a purchaser which, simultaneously therewith, leases the entire Building or such land back to the seller thereof be treated as an assumption by such purchaser-lessor, by operation of law or otherwise, of Landlord’s obligations hereunder, but Tenant shall look solely to such seller-lessee, and its successors from time to time in title, for performance of Landlord’s obligations hereunder subject to the provisions of Section 9.3 and any SNDA. In any such event, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to the lease to such purchaser provided that such purchaser agrees to recognize the right of Tenant to use and occupy the Premises upon the payment of rent and other charges payable by Tenant under this Lease and the performance by Tenant of Tenant’s obligations hereunder this Lease and provided that Xxxxxx agrees to attorn to such purchaser. For all purposes, such seller-lessee, and its successors in title, shall be the landlord hereunder unless and until Xxxxxxxx’s position shall have been assumed by such purchaser-lessor.

9.6

Surrender

No act or thing done by Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall be valid, unless in writing signed by Xxxxxxxx. No employee of Landlord or of Landlord’s agents shall have any power to accept the keys of the Premises prior to the termination of this Lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord or of Landlord’s agents shall not operate as a termination of the Lease or a surrender of the Premises.

9.7

Brokerage

(A) Tenant warrants and represents that Tenant has not dealt with any broker in connection with the consummation of this Lease other than the broker, person or firm, if any, designated in Section 1.1 hereof; and in the event any claim is made against the Landlord relative to dealings by Xxxxxx with brokers, other than the broker, if any, designated in Section 1.1 hereof, Tenant shall defend the claim against Landlord with counsel of Tenant’s selection first approved by Landlord (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and save harmless and indemnify Landlord on account of loss, cost or damage which may arise to the extent of such claim.

(B) Landlord warrants and represents that Landlord has not dealt with any broker, in connection with the consummation of this Lease other than the broker, person or firm, if any, designated in Section 1.1 hereof; and in the event any claim is made against the Tenant relative to dealings by Landlord with brokers, other than the broker, if any, designated in Section 1.1 hereof, Landlord shall defend the claim against Tenant with counsel of Landlord’s selection first approved by Tenant (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld) and save harmless and indemnify Tenant on account of loss, cost or damage which may arise by reason of such claim. Xxxxxxxx agrees that it shall be solely responsible for the payment of brokerage commissions to the broker for the Original Term of this Lease, if any, designated in Section 1.1 hereof.

9.8	Invalidity of Particular Provisions

If any term or provision of this Lease, including but not limited to any waiver of contribution or claims, indemnity, obligation, or limitation of liability or of damages, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

9.9	Provisions Binding, Etc.

The obligations of this Lease shall run with the land, and except as herein otherwise provided, the terms hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns, respectively, of Landlord and Tenant and, if Tenant shall be an individual, upon and to his heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns. Each term and each provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant shall be construed to be both a covenant and a condition. The reference contained to successors and assigns of Tenant is not intended to constitute a consent to subletting or assignment by Xxxxxx.

9.10	Recording; Confidentiality

Xxxxxx agrees not to record the within Lease, but each party hereto agrees, on the request of the other, to execute a so-called Notice of Lease or short form lease in form recordable and complying with applicable Legal Requirements and reasonably satisfactory to both Landlord’s and Xxxxxx’s attorneys. In no event shall such document set forth rent or other charges payable by Tenant under this Lease; and any such document shall expressly state that it is executed pursuant to the provisions contained in this Lease, and is not intended to vary the terms and conditions of this Lease.

In the event one party is required by law to provide this Lease or disclose any of its terms, the disclosing party shall give the other party prompt notice of such requirement prior to making disclosure so that the other party may seek an appropriate protective order. If failing the entry of a protective order the disclosing party is compelled to make disclosure, the disclosing party shall only disclose portions of the Lease which the disclosing party is required to disclose and will exercise reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the information so disclosed.

9.11

Whenever, by the terms of this Lease, notice shall or may be given either to Landlord or to Tenant, such notice shall be in writing and shall be sent by overnight commercial courier or by registered or certified mail, postage or delivery charges prepaid, as the case may be:

If intended for Tenant, addressed to Tenant at the addresses set forth in Article I of this Lease (or to such other address or addresses as may from time to time hereafter be designated by Tenant by like notice).

Except as otherwise provided herein, all such notices shall be effective when received; provided, that (i) if receipt is refused, notice shall be effective upon the first occasion that such receipt is refused, (ii) if the notice is unable to be delivered due to a change of address of which no notice was given, notice shall be effective upon the date such delivery was attempted, (iii) if the notice address is a post office box number, notice shall be effective the day after such notice is sent as provided hereinabove or (iv) if the notice is to a foreign address, notice shall be effective two (2) days after such notice is sent as provided hereinabove.

Where provision is made for the attention of an individual or department, the notice shall be effective only if the wrapper in which such notice is sent is addressed to the attention of such individual or department.

Any notice given by an attorney on behalf of Landlord or by Landlord’s managing agent shall be considered as given by Landlord and shall be fully effective. Any notice given by an attorney on behalf of Tenant shall be considered as given by Xxxxxx and shall be fully effective.

Time is of the essence with respect to any and all notices and periods for giving notice or taking any action thereto under this Lease.

9.12	When Lease Becomes Binding and Authority

Employees or agents of Landlord have no authority to make or agree to make a lease or any other agreement or undertaking in connection herewith. The submission of this document for examination and negotiation does not constitute an offer to lease, or a reservation of, or option for, the Premises, and this document shall become effective and binding only upon the execution and delivery hereof by both Landlord and Xxxxxx. All negotiations, considerations, representations and understandings between Landlord and Tenant are incorporated herein and may be modified or altered only by written agreement between Landlord and Tenant, and no act or omission of any employee or agent of Landlord shall alter, change or modify any of the provisions hereof. Landlord and Tenant hereby represent and warrant to the other that all necessary action has been taken to enter this Lease and that the person signing this Lease on behalf of Landlord and Xxxxxx has been duly authorized to do so.

9.13	Section Headings

The titles of the Articles throughout this Lease are for convenience and reference only, and the words contained therein shall in no way be held to explain, modify, amplify or aid in the interpretation, construction or meaning of the provisions of this Lease.

9.14	Rights of Mortgagee

This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to any mortgage now or hereafter on the Site or the Building, or both, and to each advance made or hereafter to be made under any mortgage, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof and all substitutions therefor provided that the holder of such mortgage agrees to recognize the rights of Tenant under this Lease (including the right to use and occupy the Premises) upon the payment of rent and other charges payable by Tenant under this Lease and the performance by Xxxxxx of Xxxxxx’s obligations hereunder pursuant to a commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement (“SNDA”). In confirmation of such subordination and recognition, Xxxxxx shall execute and deliver promptly such instruments of subordination and recognition as such mortgagee may reasonably request subject to receipt of such instruments of recognition from such mortgagee as Tenant may reasonably request (Tenant hereby agreeing to pay any legal or other fees charged by the mortgagee in connection with providing the same). In the event that any mortgagee or its respective successor in title shall succeed to the interest of Landlord, then, this Lease shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall and does hereby agree to attorn to such mortgagee or successor and to recognize such mortgagee or successor as its landlord. If any holder of a mortgage which includes the Premises, executed and recorded prior to the date of this Lease, shall so elect, this Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder, shall be superior in right to the rights of such holder, with the same force and effect as if this Lease had been executed, delivered and recorded, or a statutory notice hereof recorded, prior to the execution, delivery and recording of any such mortgage. The election of any such holder shall become effective upon either notice from such holder to Tenant in the same fashion as notices from Landlord to Tenant are to be given hereunder or by the recording in the appropriate registry or recorder’s office of an instrument in which such holder subordinates its rights under such mortgage to this Lease.

Page 55

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

Landlord hereby represents and warrants that there is no mortgage currently encumbering the Building and/or the Site as of the date of this Lease. As a condition to any subordination of this Lease to a mortgage hereunder granted on the Site or the Building, Landlord shall obtain an SNDA executed by the mortgagee in its standard form with such commercially reasonable changes thereto as Tenant may reasonably request.

If in connection with obtaining financing a bank, insurance company, pension trust or other institutional lender shall request reasonable modifications in this Lease as a condition to such financing, Tenant will not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent thereto, provided that such modifications do not increase the monetary obligations of Tenant hereunder or materially adversely affect the leasehold interest hereby created.

9.15	Status Reports and Financial Statements

Recognizing that Landlord may find it necessary to establish to third parties, such as accountants, banks, potential or existing mortgagees, potential purchasers or the like, the then current status of performance hereunder, Tenant, on the request of Landlord made from time to time, will furnish to Landlord within ten (10) business days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s request therefor, or any existing or potential holder of any mortgage encumbering the Premises, the Building, the Site and/or the Complex or any potential purchaser of the Premises, the Building, the Site and/or the Complex, (each an “Interested Party”), a statement of the status of any matter pertaining to this Lease, including, without limitation, acknowledgments that (or the extent to which) each party is in compliance with its obligations under the terms of this Lease. In addition, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, or any Interested Party designated by Landlord (not more than once per calendar year unless there has been an Event of Default hereunder), annual financial statements of Tenant and any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, as reasonably requested by Landlord, including, but not limited to financial statements for the past three (3) years. Any such status statement (but no such financial statement) delivered by Tenant pursuant to this Section 9.15 may be relied upon by any Interested Party. Landlord shall keep any non-public financial statements provided by Tenant pursuant to this Section 9.15 confidential, and shall not disclose the same other than (i) to Landlord’s officers, employees and consultants (or to any of the Interested Parties) or (ii) to the extent required by applicable law or by any administrative, governmental or judicial proceeding, and to the extent such financial statements are provided to Interested Parties, Landlord shall advise such Interested Parties of the obligation to keep the same confidential as provided in this Section 9.15. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant within ten (10) business days of Tenant’s request therefor, a customary estoppel certificate which may be relied upon by Tenant and third parties reasonably designated by Tenant.

9.16

Self-Help

Following an Event of Default hereunder (although notice and cure shall not be required either in an emergency or where Xxxxxx has alleged in written notice to Landlord that an unsafe or dangerous condition exists), Landlord shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to enter upon the Premises and to reasonably perform such obligation notwithstanding the fact that no specific provision for such substituted performance by Landlord is made in this Lease with respect to such default. In performing such obligation, Landlord may make any reasonable payment of money or perform any other reasonable act. All reasonable sums so paid by Landlord (together with interest at the rate of one and one-half percentage points over the then prevailing prime rate in Boston as set by Bank of America, N.A., or its successor (but in no event greater than the maximum rate permitted by applicable Legal Requirements) and all reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the performance of any such act by Landlord, shall be deemed to be Additional Rent under this Lease and shall be payable to Landlord within fifteen (15) days of demand therefor. Landlord may exercise the foregoing rights without waiving any other of its rights or releasing Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease.

9.17	Holding Over

Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration of the term of this Lease shall be treated as a tenancy at sufferance and shall be on the terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease, as far as applicable except that Tenant shall pay as a use and occupancy charge an amount equal to 150% of the Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent calculated (on a daily basis) at the highest rate payable under the terms of this Lease, for the first sixty (60) days of such holding over, and thereafter increasing to 200% of the Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent calculated (on a daily basis) at the highest rate payable under the terms of this Lease, measured from the day on which Tenant’s hold-over commences and terminating on the day on which Tenant vacates the Premises. In addition, Tenant shall save Landlord, its agents and employees harmless and will exonerate, defend and indemnify Landlord, its agents and employees from and against any and all damages which Landlord may suffer on account of Xxxxxx’s hold-over in the Premises after the expiration or prior termination of the term of this Lease; provided, Landlord agrees that Tenant shall not be liable for consequential damages unless such holding over exceeds sixty (60) days. Nothing in the foregoing nor any other term or provision of this Lease shall be deemed to permit Tenant to retain possession of the Premises or hold over in the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term. All property which remains in the Building or the Premises after the expiration or termination of this Lease shall be conclusively deemed to be abandoned and may either be retained by Landlord as its property or sold or otherwise disposed of in such manner as Landlord may see fit. If any part thereof shall be sold, then Landlord may receive the proceeds of such sale and apply the same, at its option against the expenses of the sale, the cost of moving and storage, any arrears of rent or other charges payable hereunder by Xxxxxx to Landlord and any damages to which Landlord may be entitled under this Lease and at law and in equity.

9.18	Security Deposit

(A) Concurrently with the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a security deposit in the amount of Four Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($450,000) and Landlord shall hold the same, throughout the Term of this Lease (including the Extended Term, if applicable), unless sooner returned to Tenant as provided in this Section 9.18, as security for the performance by Tenant of all obligations on the part of Tenant to be performed under this Lease. Such deposit shall be in the form of an irrevocable, unconditional, negotiable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”). The Letter of Credit shall (i) be issued by and drawn on a bank reasonably approved by Landlord (it being agreed that Silicon Valley Bank shall be deemed approved by Landlord for so long as it meets the other requirements of this Section 9.18) and at a minimum having a long term issuer credit rating from Standard and Poor’s Professional Rating Service of A or a comparable rating from Xxxxx’x Professional Rating Service, (ii) be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H, (iii) permit one or more draws thereunder to be made accompanied only by certification by Landlord or Landlord’s managing agent that pursuant to the terms of this Lease, Landlord is entitled to draw upon such Letter of Credit, (iv) permit transfers at any time without charge, (v) permit presentment in Boston, Massachusetts and (vi) provide that any notices to Landlord be sent to the notice address provided for Landlord in this Lease. If the credit rating for the issuer of such Letter of Credit falls below the standard set forth in (i) above or if the financial condition of such issuer changes in any other material adverse way or if any trustee, receiver or liquidator shall be appointed for the issuer, Landlord shall have the right to require that Tenant provide a substitute letter of credit that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Section, and Tenant’s failure to provide the same within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s written demand therefor shall entitle Landlord to immediately draw upon the Letter of Credit. Any such Letter of Credit shall be for a term of two (2) years (or for one (1) year if the issuer thereof regularly and customarily only issues letters of credit for a maximum term of one (1) year) and shall in either case provide for automatic renewals through the date which is ninety (90) days subsequent to the scheduled expiration of this Lease (as the same may be extended). Any failure or refusal of the issuer to honor the Letter of Credit shall be at Tenant’s sole risk and shall not relieve Tenant of its obligations hereunder with regard to the security deposit. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord shall have the right from time to time without prejudice to any other remedy Landlord may have on account thereof, to draw on all or any portion of such deposit held as a Letter of Credit and to apply the proceeds of such Letter of Credit or any cash held as such deposit, or any part thereof, to Landlord’s damages arising from such Event of Default on the part of Tenant under the terms of this Lease. If Landlord so applies all or any portion of such deposit, Tenant shall within seven (7) business days after notice from Landlord deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore such deposit to the full amount stated in this Section 9.18. While Landlord holds any cash deposit Landlord shall have no obligation to pay interest on the same and shall have the right to commingle the same with Landlord’s other funds. Neither the holder of a mortgage nor the Landlord in a ground lease on property which includes the Premises shall ever be responsible to Tenant for the return or application of any such deposit, whether or not it succeeds to the position of Landlord hereunder, unless such deposit shall have been received in hand by such holder or ground Landlord or such holder or ground lessor shall have assumed same, or be deemed to have assumed same

(B)Landlord shall return a Seventy-Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollar ($75,000.00) portion of such deposit to Tenant so that the remainder of such deposit shall be Three Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($375,000.00) (or if such deposit is in the form of a Letter of Credit, Landlord shall exchange the Letter of Credit for a Letter of Credit delivered by Tenant which reduces the amount secured by the Letter of Credit by the amount stated hereinabove and otherwise in strict conformity with the requirements herein) at the beginning of the fourth (4) Rent Year (the “First Scheduled Reduction Date”) if (i) no Event of Default then exists, (ii) Landlord has not applied such deposit or any portion thereof to Landlord’s damages arising from any default on the part of Tenant, whether or not Tenant has restored the amount so applied by Landlord, (iii) there has not been more than one (1) monetary or material non-monetary Events of Default that occurred during the immediately preceding 12-month period, even if later cured, (iv) Tenant has not declared bankruptcy at any point during the Term and (v) either (A) Tenant has demonstrated a positive net income in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for its most recent fiscal year prior to the First Scheduled Reduction Date, as shown in its public filings for such fiscal year (or, in the event that Tenant is an entity other than a publicly held company whose shares are traded on a national stock exchange, as shown in a certified copy of its most recent audited financial statements covering such fiscal year), or (B) Tenant has demonstrated that it holds a minimum of cash or cash equivalents of $30,000,000 as of the First Scheduled Reduction Date, as shown in its public filings (or, in the event that Tenant is an entity other than a publicly held company whose shares are traded on a national stock exchange, as shown in a certified copy of its most recent audited financial statements). In the event that Xxxxxx does not meet all of the foregoing conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (v) of the immediately preceding sentence at the beginning of the fourth (4) Rent Year, then the First Scheduled Reduction Date shall be deferred until such date as Tenant has met such conditions.

(C)Landlord shall return an additional Seventy-Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollar ($75,000.00) portion of such deposit to Tenant so that the remainder of such deposit shall be Thee Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($300,000.00) (or if such deposit is in the form of a Letter of Credit, Landlord shall exchange the Letter of Credit for a Letter of Credit delivered by Tenant which reduces the amount secured by the Letter of Credit by the amount stated hereinabove and otherwise in strict conformity with the requirements herein) at the beginning of the fifth (5^th) Lease Year (the “Second Scheduled Reduction Date”) if (i) no Event of Default then exists, (ii) Landlord has not applied such deposit or any portion thereof to Landlord’s damages arising from any default on the part of Tenant, whether or not Tenant has restored the amount so applied by Landlord, (iii) there has not been more than one (1) monetary or material non-monetary Events of Default that occurred during the immediately preceding 12-month period, even if later cured, (iv) Tenant has not declared bankruptcy at any point during the Term and (v) either (A) Tenant has demonstrated a positive net income in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for its most recent fiscal year prior to the First Scheduled Reduction Date, as shown in its public filings for such fiscal year (or, in the event that Tenant is an entity other than a publicly held company whose shares are traded on a national stock exchange, as shown in a certified copy of its most recent audited financial statements covering such fiscal year), or (B) Tenant has demonstrated that it holds a minimum of cash or cash equivalents of $30,000,000 as of the Second Scheduled Reduction Date, as shown in its public filings (or, in the event that Tenant is an entity other than a publicly held company whose shares are traded on a national stock exchange, as shown in a certified copy of its most recent audited financial statements). In the event that Tenant does not meet all of the foregoing conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (v) of the immediately preceding sentence at the beginning of the fifth (5^th) Rent Year, then the Second Scheduled Reduction Date shall be deferred until such date as Tenant has met such conditions, but in no event shall such reduction occur until one (1) Lease Year after the First Scheduled Reduction Date occurs (as the same may be deferred as provided above). In no event shall the Letter of Credit be reduced to less than $300,000 hereunder.

(D)If Xxxxxx believes that it has satisfied all the conditions precedent to a reduction in the amount of the security deposit, then it shall request such reduction in writing to Landlord, which request shall certify to Landlord that all such conditions have been satisfied. If Landlord agrees, in its reasonable determination, that all of the aforesaid conditions are met, the security deposit shall be so reduced in accordance with this Section 9.18. No Letter of Credit shall automatically reduce, but any reduction in the amount thereof shall require Landlord’s prior written notice to the issuer of the Letter of Credit of the reduced amount. Promptly after Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of Tenant’s request for a reduction as described above, Landlord shall determine whether such a reduction is permitted in accordance with this Section 9.18, and if it is, Landlord shall notify the issuer of the Letter of Credit of the amount to which the Letter of Credit shall be reduced.

(E) Provided no Event of Default then exists, Landlord shall return the deposit, or so much thereof as shall not have theretofore been applied in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.18, to Tenant within sixty (60) days of the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease (as the same may have been extended) and surrender possession of the Premises by Tenant to Landlord in the condition required in the Lease at such time.

9.19	Late Payment

If Landlord shall not have received any payment or installment of Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent (the “Outstanding Amount”) on or before the date on which the same first becomes payable under this Lease (the “Due Date”), the amount of such payment or installment shall incur a late charge equal to the sum of: (a) five percent (5%) of the Outstanding Amount for administration and bookkeeping costs associated with the late payment and (b) interest on the Outstanding Amount from the Due Date through and including the date such payment or installment is received by Landlord, at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) the rate announced by Bank of America, N.A., (or its successor) from time to time as its prime or base rate (or if such rate is no longer available, a comparable rate reasonably selected by Landlord), plus two percent (2%), or (ii) the maximum applicable legal rate, if any. Such interest shall be deemed Additional Rent and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within fifteen (15) days of demand therefor.

Xxxxxxxx agrees to waive the late charge due hereunder for the first late payment by Xxxxxx under this Lease per calendar year, provided that Landlord receives such payment from Tenant within five (5) business days of the Due Date (provided further that if such payment is not received with the aforesaid five (5) business day period, interest on the Outstanding Amount will accrue as of the original Due Date).

9.20	Tenant’s Payments

Each and every payment and expenditure, other than Annual Fixed Rent, shall be deemed to be Additional Rent hereunder, whether or not the provisions requiring payment of such amounts specifically so state, and shall be payable, unless otherwise provided in this Lease, within thirty (30) days after written demand by Landlord, and in the case of the non-payment of any such amount, Landlord shall have, in addition to all of its other rights and remedies, all the rights and remedies available to Landlord hereunder or by law in the case of non-payment of Annual Fixed Rent. Unless expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, the performance and observance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed and observed by Tenant shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. If Tenant has not objected to any statement of Additional Rent which is rendered by Landlord to Tenant within one hundred eighty (180) days after Landlord has rendered the same to Tenant, then the same shall be deemed to be a final account between Landlord and Tenant not subject to any further dispute. In the event that Tenant shall seek Landlord’s consent or approval under this Lease, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Rent, for all reasonable costs and expenses, including legal and architectural costs and expenses, incurred by Landlord in processing such request, whether or not such consent or approval shall be given. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, if Landlord or any affiliate of Landlord has elected to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), any service required or permitted to be performed by Landlord pursuant to this Lease, the charge or cost of which may be treated as impermissible tenant service income under the laws governing a REIT, may be performed by a taxable REIT subsidiary that is affiliated with either Landlord or Xxxxxxxx’s property manager, an independent contractor of Landlord or Landlord’s property manager (the “Service Provider”). If Tenant is subject to a charge under this Lease for any such service, then, at Landlord’s direction, Tenant will pay such charge either to Landlord for further payment to the Service Provider or directly to the Service Provider, and, in either case, (i) Landlord will credit such payment against Additional Rent due from Tenant under this Lease for such service, and (ii) such payment to the Service Provider will not relieve Landlord from any obligation under the Lease concerning the provisions of such service.

10.1	Expansion Option.

(A)

Expansion Premises. On the conditions (which conditions Landlord may waive, at its election, by written notice to Tenant at any time) that both at the time that Tenant exercises its expansion option under this Section 10.1 and as of the date upon which the Expansion Premises (as defined below) would have otherwise become incorporated into the Premises: (i) there exists no Event of Default, (ii) this Lease is still in full force and effect, (iii) Tenant has neither assigned this Lease nor sublet more than 5,000 square feet of the Rentable Floor Area of the Premises in the aggregate (except for an assignment or subletting permitted without Landlord’s consent under Section 5.6 hereof), and (iv) Landlord has not previously submitted to Tenant a Landlord’s Submitted Offer pursuant to Section 10.2 below, Tenant shall have the option to lease the Expansion Premises on and subject to the terms and provisions herein set forth.

Page 64

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

“Expansion Premises” means additional area on the ground level of the Building contiguous to the Premises in an amount to be designated by Tenant in Tenant’s Expansion Request Notice (as defined below) containing (i) not less than 25,000 square feet of Rentable Floor Area, and (ii) not more than 80,000 square feet of Rentable Floor Area, all to be constructed and finished in the location behind the existing Building (but in no event may the square footage of the Expansion Premises exceed the square footage that would result in the need to construct any type of parking structure, whether in or below the Expansion Premises, or elsewhere on the Site).

(B)

Exercise of Rights to Expansion Premises. Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 10.1(A) above, Tenant may exercise its option to lease the Expansion Premises by giving written notice to Landlord (“Expansion Request Notice”) not later than fifteen (15) months prior to the expiration of the Term of this Lease (time is of the essence) (the “Expansion Notice Deadline”) (i) stating that Tenant is interested in exercising its expansion option for the Expansion Premises, (ii) identifying the selected Rentable Floor Area of the Expansion Premises (subject to the size parameters expressly set forth in Section 10.1(A) above), (iii) stating the proposed term for the Expansion Premises, which the parties agree shall not be less than eight (8) years and not be more than twelve (12) years from the commencement date applicable to the Expansion Premises (the “Expansion Term”). Tenant’s Expansion Request Notice shall include a detailed copy of Tenant’s financial statements for its two (2) most recently completed fiscal years, as well as year-to-date financials through Tenant’s most recently completed quarter. Upon the timely giving of the Expansion Request Notice, Landlord shall, within one hundred and twenty (120) days after receipt thereof, deliver written notice to Tenant (the “Landlord’s Expansion Response”) which sets forth (i) the proposed Annual Fixed Rent for the Expansion Premises determined in accordance with Section 10.1(C)(iii) below (it being understood that Tenant shall continue to pay Landlord’s Operating Expenses and Landlord’s Tax Expenses in accordance Article II of the Lease), (ii) an estimate of the Total Project Costs, (iii) the anticipated commencement date (the “Anticipated Expansion Inclusion Date”) for the Expansion Premises, (iv) the proposed level of buildout of the Expansion Premises, (v) the proposed landlord contribution, if any, (vi) the required increase in the security deposit, and (vii) Landlord’s Rent Quotation with respect to the original Premises for the period of extension of the Term applicable thereto as provided below.

If the parties fail to execute the Expansion Amendment by the Expansion Amendment Deadline (time being of the essence) for any reason, then the applicable Expansion Request Notice and Landlord’s Expansion Response each shall be deemed withdrawn and of no further force and effect, but the failure of the parties to execute the Expansion Amendment by the Expansion Amendment Deadline shall not prohibit Tenant from delivering additional Expansion Request Notices in the future provided (i) the same is not delivered within six (6) months of the last Expansion Request Notice, (ii) such notices are delivered to Landlord no later than the Expansion Notice Deadline, and (iii) Landlord has not previously submitted to Tenant a Landlord’s Submitted Offer pursuant to Section 10.2 below. The failure of the parties to reach agreement on the Expansion Amendment shall not be deemed a default by either party, permit a termination of this Lease or otherwise entitle the parties to any rights or remedies under this Lease. Tenant shall have no right to deliver an Expansion Request Notice after the Expansion Notice Deadline, time being of the essence of this Section 10.1(B). The execution of the Expansion Amendment shall not be deemed to waive any of the conditions to Tenant’s lease of the Expansion Premises, unless otherwise specifically provided in the Expansion Amendment.

Page 65

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

The Expansion Amendment shall provide that the term with respect to the original Premises shall be extended so as to be co-terminus with the Expansion Term and the Annual Fixed Rent for the original Premises shall be determined in the manner set forth in Section 2.4.1(B) of the Lease except that (i) Tenant shall not be required to deliver any Exercise Notice, (ii) Landlord shall provide Landlord’s Rent Quotation as part of Landlord’s Expansion Response, and (iii) notwithstanding any provision of Section 2.4.1 to the contrary, in no event shall the Annual Fixed Rent for the period of such extension be less than the Annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the Term of this Lease as it may have been extended. Notwithstanding any implication to the contrary Landlord has no obligation to make any additional payment to Tenant in respect of any construction allowance or the like or to perform any work to the Premises as a result of such extension.

(C)

Lease Provisions Applying to Expansion Premises. The leasing to Tenant of the Expansion Premises pursuant to the Expansion Amendment shall be upon all the same terms and conditions of the Lease except as follows:

(i) Commencement Date and Rent Commencement Date. The commencement date (and rent commencement date) with respect to the Expansion Premises shall be the later date to occur of (y) the Anticipated Expansion Inclusion Date, and (z) the date that Landlord delivers the entire Expansion Premises to Tenant pursuant to the requirements of this Section 10.1(C) substantially complete and vacant and free of any occupancy rights, personal property and debris (the “Expansion Premises Commencement Date”). From and after the Expansion Premises Commencement Date, all references in the Lease to “Premises” and the “Building” shall include the Expansion Premises.

(ii) Term. The term of the Lease as to the Expansion Premises shall be the Expansion Term as provided in Section 10.1(B) above (and the term of the original Premises shall be co-terminous).

(iii) Annual Fixed Rent. The Annual Fixed Rent for the Expansion Premises shall be equal to the amount reasonably estimated by Landlord to recover the Total Project Costs and to pay Landlord an annual rate of return on the Total Project Costs (as hereinafter defined) equal to 275 basis points over the average yield on the ten (10) year United States Treasury notes, as determined by Landlord at the time Landlord submits Landlord’s Expansion Response as provided above; provided, however, in no event shall the Annual Fixed Rent payable for the Expansion Premises be less than the amount necessary to recover the Total Project Costs and to pay Landlord an eight percent (8%) per annum rate of return on the Total Project Costs (as defined below). The “Total Project Costs” shall mean all of the total hard and soft costs incurred by Landlord to design, permit and construct the Expansion Premises and related improvements, including, but not limited to, landscaping; construction and installation of drives, driveways, and other site improvements; provision of additional parking facilities at Site (subject to the limitation set forth in Section 10.1(A) above) (the “Expansion Work”); and a construction management fee equal to five percent (5%) of the Total Project Costs). Total Project Costs shall include the land value of the land area reasonably allocated to the Expansion Premises and based on a $100.00 per square foot basis (as of the date of this Lease), such amount to be escalated annually by four percent (4%) on each anniversary of the Commencement Date of the original Premises.

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

(iv) Landlord’s Contribution. Landlord shall have no obligation to provide any contribution to Tenant in respect of the Expansion Premises except as expressly provided in the Expansion Amendment.

(v) Construction of Expansion Work During Occupancy. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Expansion Work will be performed by Landlord (or its contractor) while Tenant is in occupancy of the Premises and the same shall not be considered an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises and shall not entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or to an abatement of any Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent payable hereunder. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that such ongoing construction may result in noise, dust, vibrations and other construction disturbances and Tenant’s exercise of its rights under this Section 10.1 shall constitute Tenant’s agreement to perform the obligations of Tenant under this Lease with knowledge of the construction of the Expansion Work and the disruption and disturbances that may result therefrom, including a temporary reduction in parking spaces at the Site during the construction of the Expansion Premises. Landlord shall, during the performance of the Expansion Work, exercise commercially reasonable efforts (in light of the construction activities being performed and Tenant’s operations in the original Premises) to minimize interference with Xxxxxx’s use of or access to the Premises pursuant to this Lease and to implement reasonable construction measures and procedures to mitigate dust and noise to the extent commercially feasible provided that such efforts and measures shall not require Landlord to perform such construction activities outside of normal building hours or at material additional cost to Landlord, except that, if requested by Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx agrees to perform elements of construction of the Expansion Premises outside normal business hours to the extent the same would have a material adverse effect on Tenant’s ability to conduct business operations in the Premises if such work were performed during normal business hours.

(D)

Permitting Contingency. The lease of the Expansion Premises, the obligation of Landlord to perform the Expansion Work and the Expansion Amendment shall be subject to the condition that Landlord obtains all necessary building and other permits and governmental approvals, including, but not limited to, site plan approval, special permits, variances, conservation commission approvals and a building permit (collectively, the “Permits and Approvals”) required to construct and operate the Expansion Premises (the “Permit Contingency”). After the execution of the Expansion Amendment, Landlord agrees to promptly apply for, and diligently pursue, such Permits and Approvals for the Expansion Premises. To the extent Landlord determines that it will be unable through the exercise of reasonable efforts to obtain the Permits and Approvals within nine (9) months after the date of the Expansion Amendment, it shall have the right to terminate the Expansion Amendment upon written notice to Tenant delivered not later than the expiration of such 9-month period, and upon timely delivery of such notice, the Expansion Amendment shall be of no further force and effect, but Tenant shall have the rights set forth in Section 10.3 below to the extent applicable. The failure of Landlord to obtain such Permits and Approvals for the Expansion Premises shall not be deemed a default by Landlord, permit a termination of this Lease by Tenant (except to the limited extent set forth in Section 10.3 below) or otherwise entitle Tenant to any rights or remedies under this Lease.

(A)

Subject to the terms of this Section 10.2, Landlord reserves the right to expand the Building and/or construct additional improvements or buildings on the Site for occupancy by other tenants (the “Additional Areas”); however, Landlord agrees not to lease the Additional Areas other than to Tenant for a period of forty-eight (48) months from the date of this Lease (the “Black-out Period”) provided there is no Event of Default by Tenant hereunder. On the conditions (which conditions Landlord may waive by written notice to Tenant) that at the time of exercise of the option to extend and at the commencement date of the Black-out Extension Term (as defined below) (i) there exists no Event of Default, (ii) this Lease is still in full force and effect, and (iii) Tenant has neither assigned this Lease nor sublet more than 5,000 square feet of the Rentable Floor Area of the Premises in the aggregate (except for an assignment or subletting permitted without Landlord’s consent under Section 5.6.1 hereof), Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term hereof upon all the same terms, conditions, covenants and agreements herein contained (except for the Annual Fixed Rent which shall be adjusted during the option period as hereinbelow set forth) for one (1) period of three (3) years (the “Black-out Extension Term”) in the manner set forth in Section 2.4.1 of the Lease except that (i) Tenant shall give the Exercise Notice with respect to the Black-out Extension Term not later than the initial expiration of the Black-out Period (as set forth above), and (ii) notwithstanding any provision of Section 2.4.1 to the contrary, in no event shall the Annual Fixed Rent payable during the Black-out Extension Term be less than the Annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the Term of this Lease as it may have been extended. Notwithstanding any implication to the contrary Landlord has no obligation to make any additional payment to Tenant in respect of any construction allowance or the like or to perform any work to the Premises as a result of the exercise by Tenant of such option, and in the event Tenant exercises such right to extend, the Black-out Period shall be extended by three (3) years from the date the Black-out Period would have expired as provided above. The parties agree that the foregoing right to extend the Term for the Black-out Extension Term is in addition to the Extension Option contained in Section 2.4.1 of the Lease, but in no event shall the Term be extended pursuant to this Section 10.2(A) by more than three (3) years in total.

(B)

From and after the expiration of the Black-out Period (as the same may be extended pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.2(A)) and continuing through the Expansion Notice Deadline (as defined in Section 10.1 above), subject to the provisions of this Section 10.2, Landlord agrees that if Landlord desires to lease to a third party any Additional Areas (the “First Refusal Space”) then, provided that, (i) there exists no Event of Default, (ii) this Lease is still in full force and effect, (iii) Tenant has neither assigned the Lease nor sublet more than 5,000 square feet of the Premises (other than an assignment or subletting permitted under Section 5.6), and (iv) Tenant has not previously leased the Expansion Premises pursuant to Section 10.1 (it being agreed that if Landlord and Tenant enter into an Expansion Amendment and Landlord thereafter terminates the Expansion Amendment pursuant to Section 10.1(D) due to its inability to obtain the Permits and Approvals, Tenant shall not be deemed to have leased the Expansion Premises), Landlord shall give notice of the availability of such space to Tenant and all material business terms on which Landlord is willing to lease such space to Tenant, which shall include estimated square footage of, and delivery date for, the First Refusal Space, Annual Base Rent, level of buildout, landlord contribution, additional security deposit, and Landlord’s Rent Quotation with respect to the period of extension of the Term as to the original Premises so as to make the same co-terminous with the First Refusal Term (as defined below) (“Landlord’s Submitted Offer”). Except with respect to the extension of the term applicable to the original Premises, Xxxxxxxx’s Submitted Offer shall be based on substantially the same business terms set forth in a term sheet which Landlord has submitted to a third party to lease such First Refusal Space and shall include a signature block for countersignature by Tenant.

(C)

Tenant shall have the right to accept Landlord’s Submitted Offer by countersigning Landlord’s Submitted Offer and delivering an original of the same to Landlord within ten (10) business days after its receipt, together with a detailed copy of Tenant’s financial statements for its two (2) most recently completed fiscal years, as well as year-to-date financials through Tenant’s most recently completed quarter, and if desired, a request for a Broker Determination of the Annual Fixed Rent with respect to the period of extension of the Term as to the original Premises. Within ten (10) business days after Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of such accepted Landlord’s Submitted Offer from Tenant, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant two (2) counterpart originals of an amendment to this Lease to incorporate the First Refusal Space into the Premises demised under this Lease upon the terms and conditions of such accepted Landlord’s Submitted Offer and subject to such additional security deposit, if any, required by Landlord as provided below (the “First Refusal Amendment”). Within fifteen (15) business days after Xxxxxx’s receipt of such amendment, Tenant shall execute both counterpart originals of such amendment and shall deliver the same to Landlord along with appropriate evidence of the authority of Tenant to enter into the transaction and any additional security deposit required under the First Refusal Amendment. If Tenant shall duly and timely comply with the foregoing, Landlord shall execute the two (2) counterpart original amendments and shall promptly return one (1) fully executed counterpart to Tenant.

(D)

If at the expiration of ten (10) business days after Xxxxxx’s receipt of Landlord’s Submitted Offer, Tenant shall not have accepted Landlord’s Submitted Offer by countersigning and delivering the same to Landlord, or if Tenant shall so execute and deliver such Xxxxxxxx’s Submitted Offer, but at the end of fifteen (15) business days after Xxxxxx’s receipt of the First Refusal Amendment Tenant has not entered into such amendment and delivered the same, together with any additional required security deposit, to Landlord and/or has not complied with the provisions of subparagraph (B) above, time being of the essence in respect to all of the same, Landlord shall be free to lease the First Refusal Space upon terms not materially less favorable to Landlord than those contained in Landlord’s Submitted Offer without again offering such space to Tenant for lease, it being agreed that if Landlord proposes to lease such First Refusal Space upon terms materially less favorable to Landlord than contained in Landlord’s Submitted Offer, the terms of this Section shall continue to apply to such First Refusal Space subject to Landlord’s Submitted Offer.

(E)

Lease Provisions Applying to First Refusal Space. The leasing to Tenant of the First Refusal Space pursuant to the First Refusal Amendment shall be upon all the same terms and conditions of the Lease except as follows:

(i) Commencement Date and Rent Commencement Date. The commencement date (and rent commencement date) in respect of the First Refusal Space shall be the date that Landlord delivers the entire First Refusal Space to Tenant, substantially complete and vacant and free of any occupancy rights, personal property and debris (the “First Refusal Premises Commencement Date”). From and after the First Refusal Premises Commencement Date, all references in the Lease to “Premises” and the “Building” shall include the First Refusal Space.

(ii) Term. The term of the Lease as to the First Refusal Space shall be as set forth in Landlord’s Submitted Offer (and the term of the original Premises shall be co-terminous) (the “First Refusal Term”).

(iii) Annual Fixed Rent. The Annual Fixed Rent for the First Refusal Space shall be as set forth in Landlord’s Submitted Offer, and the Annual Fixed Rent for the original Premises with respect to the period the Term is extended so as to be co-terminous with the First Refusal Term shall be determined in the manner set forth in Section 2.4.1(B) of the Lease except that (i) Tenant shall not be required to deliver any Exercise Notice, (ii) Landlord shall provide Landlord’s Rent Quotation as part of Landlord’s Submitted Offer, and (iii) notwithstanding any provision of Section 2.4.1(B) to the contrary, in no event shall the Annual Fixed Rent for the period of such extension be less than the Annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the Term of this Lease as it may have been extended. Notwithstanding any implication to the contrary Landlord has no obligation to make any additional payment to Tenant in respect of any construction allowance or the like or to perform any work to the original Premises as a result of such extension.

(iv) Condition of First Refusal Space; Landlord’s Contribution. The First Refusal Space shall be delivered by Landlord and accepted by Tenant in the condition described in the Landlord’s Submitted Offer and Landlord shall not be required to provide any work allowance or contribution to Tenant with respect to the First Refusal Space, except to the extent stated in the Landlord’s Submitted Offer.

Page 70

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

(v) Construction of First Refusal Space Work During Occupancy. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the work identified in Landlord’s Submitted Offer to be the responsibility of Landlord (the “First Refusal Space Work”) will be performed by Landlord (or its contractor) while Tenant is in occupancy of the Premises and the same shall not be considered an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises and shall not entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or to an abatement of any Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent payable hereunder. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that such ongoing construction may result in noise, dust, vibrations and other construction disturbances and Tenant’s exercise of its rights under this Section 10.2 shall constitute Tenant’s agreement to perform the obligations of Tenant under this Lease with knowledge of the construction of the First Refusal Space Work and the disruption and disturbances that may result therefrom, including a temporary reduction in parking spaces at the Site during the construction of the First Refusal Space Work. Landlord shall, during the performance of the First Refusal Space Work, exercise commercially reasonable efforts (in light of the construction activities being performed and Tenant’s operations in the existing Premises) to minimize interference with Tenant’s use of or access to the Premises pursuant to this Lease and to implement reasonable construction measures and procedures to mitigate dust and noise to the extent commercially feasible provided that such efforts and measures shall not require Landlord to perform such construction activities outside of normal building hours or at material additional cost to Landlord, except that Xxxxxxxx agrees to perform elements of construction of the First Refusal Space Work outside normal business hours to the extent the same would have a material adverse effect on Tenant’s ability to conduct business operations in the Premises if such work were performed during normal business hours.

(vi) This Article X shall no longer apply.

(F)

Security Deposit. Landlord shall have the right to review financial statements of Tenant in connection with any exercise by Tenant of the right of first refusal under this Section 10.2 and to require that Tenant deposit with Landlord a security deposit in the form of a Letter of Credit in an amount reasonably required by Landlord as a condition to Landlord’s obligation to construct and lease the First Refusal Space to Tenant.

(G)

Permitting Contingency. The lease of the First Refusal Space, the obligation of Landlord to perform the First Refusal Space Work and the First Refusal Amendment shall be subject to the condition that Landlord obtains the Permits and Approvals required to construct and operate the First Refusal Space (the “First Refusal Permit Contingency”). After the execution of the First Refusal Amendment, Landlord agrees to promptly apply for, and diligently pursue, such Permits and Approvals. To the extent Landlord determines that it will be unable through the exercise of reasonable efforts to obtain such Permits and Approvals within nine (9) after the date of the First Refusal Amendment, it shall have the right to terminate the First Refusal Amendment upon written notice to Xxxxxx delivered not later than the expiration of such 9-month period, and upon delivery of such notice, the First Refusal Amendment and the rights of Tenant under this Section 10.2 shall be of no further force and effect, but Tenant shall have the rights set forth in Section 10.3 below to the extent applicable. The failure of Landlord to obtain such Permits and Approvals for the First Refusal Space Work shall not be deemed a default by Landlord, permit a termination of this Lease by Tenant (except to the limited extent set forth in Section 10.3 below) or otherwise entitle Tenant to any rights or remedies under this Lease.

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

(H)

In the event Tenant has leased the Expansion Premises pursuant to Section 10.1 above (it being agreed that if Landlord and Tenant enter into an Expansion Amendment and Landlord thereafter terminates the Expansion Amendment pursuant to Section 10.1(D) due to its inability to obtain the Permits and Approvals, Tenant shall not be deemed to have leased the Expansion Premises), the rights of Tenant to lease any First Refusal Space pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall be of no further force and effect.

10.3

Tenant’s Right to Rescind Extension for Black-out Extension Term. To the extent (i) Tenant extends the Term by the Black-out Extension Term as provided in Section 10.2 above, and thereafter either (ii)(A) Tenant leases the Expansion Premises pursuant to an Expansion Amendment in accordance with Section 10.1 and Landlord terminates the Expansion Amendment pursuant to Section 10.1(D) above, or (ii)(B) Tenant leases First Refusal Space pursuant to a First Refusal Amendment in accordance with Section 10.2 and Landlord terminates the First Refusal Amendment pursuant to Section 10.2(G) above, and (iii) Landlord does not, concurrent with the delivery of any such termination notice, offer to accommodate Tenant’s expansion requirement in other buildings owned by Landlord or affiliates of Landlord in the Boston West Suburban Market on terms generally comparable to those contained in the Expansion Amendment or the First Refusal Amendment, as applicable, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate the Term of the Lease effective as of the expiration of the Original Term (as though the Term had not been extended for the Black-out Extension Period) provided (y) Tenant exercises such termination right by written notice delivered to Landlord not less than fifteen (15) months prior to the expiration of the Original Term, and (z) Tenant delivers a copy of a fully-executed lease with another landlord in the Boston West Suburban Market for premises which will contain square footage not less than the Rentable Area of the Premises plus the rentable area of the space which was to be leased by Tenant pursuant to the Expansion Amendment or First Refusal Amendment, as applicable, not less than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Original Term. Tenant’s failure to comply with the foregoing condition within the time periods set forth above shall be deemed a waiver of Tenant’s right to terminate the Term as of the expiration of the Original Term pursuant to this Section 10.3.

10.4

Temporary Loading Dock. To the extent the Premises are being expanded pursuant to this Article X in a manner which would eliminate, or materially impair the ability of Tenant to use, the loading dock serving the Building, Tenant shall have the right to install a flush-mount loading dock lift at the secondary entrance to the Building (Employee Entrance) (the “Temporary Loading Dock”), at Tenant’s expense, subject to (i) Landlord’s consent as to design and method of installation, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) compliance with applicable Legal Requirements. After completion of the expansion, Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to remove the Temporary Loading Dock and restore the area disturbed thereby to substantially the same condition which existed prior to installation of the Temporary Loading Dock.

10.5

Rights Personal to Tenant. The rights created by this Article X shall be personal to the Original Tenant and any Permitted Transferee under this Lease and shall not apply in favor of or be exercisable by any assignee of this Lease (other than a Permitted Transferee), nor any sublessee of all or any portion of the Premises.

EXHIBIT B-1

WORK AGREEMENT

All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to said terms in the Lease to which this Exhibit B-1 is attached. This Work Agreement is expressly subject to the provisions of the Lease, and in the event of any conflict between this Work Agreement and the Lease, this Work Agreement shall control.

1.0	LANDLORD’S WORK

A. Subject to the provisions of this Exhibit B-1, Landlord, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, shall obtain all permits and approvals necessary in connection with, and perform, the base building work (“Landlord’s Work”) as defined in the Base Building Specifications (“Base Building Specifications”) attached hereto as Exhibit B-2. Subject to delays due to Force Majeure (as defined in Section 6.1 of the Lease) or attributable to a Tenant Delay (as hereinafter defined), Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to substantially complete (as defined below) the Landlord’s Work (other than the Remaining Landlord’s Work (as defined below)) by the Estimated Commencement Date, but Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for failure so to complete construction of Landlord’s Work, except as expressly set forth in Section 1.1 below. Landlord shall have the right to immediately cease performance of the Landlord’s Work if an Event of Default occurs for so long as the same remains uncured. Landlord shall promptly apply for and obtain all permits and approvals required for Landlord’s Work and promptly thereafter commence Landlord’s Work and diligently prosecute the same to substantial completion, subject only to Force Majeure and Tenant Delay. Landlord’s Work shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner substantially in accordance with the Base Building Specifications and in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements. Landlord shall not materially modify or materially vary from the Base Building Specifications without Tenant’s prior written consent in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Xxxxxxxx’s tentative schedule for the performance of Landlord’s Work is attached hereto as Exhibit I. Landlord shall keep Tenant reasonably informed of the status of Landlord’s Work.

B. The “Tenant Access Date” shall be defined as the date that Landlord’s Work is sufficiently complete so as to make the Building watertight as reasonably determined by Landlord by written notice to Tenant. Landlord shall provide Tenant with not less than twenty (20) days prior written notice of the anticipated Tenant Access Date. To the extent the Tenant Access Date has not occurred by January 1, 2016, then for each day thereafter until the Tenant Access Date occurs, the Rent Commencement Date shall be extended by one (1) day, but (i) only to the extent Tenant is actually delayed in the performance of the Tenant’s Work as a result thereof, and (ii) notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Rent Commencement Date be extended by more than the number of days after May 1, 2016 that Tenant’s Work is not substantially complete. By way of example, if the Access Date occurs on January 15, 2016, but Tenant is only actually delayed in the performance of the Tenant’s Work as a result thereof by five (5) days, then the Rent Commencement Date shall only be delayed by the lesser of (A) five (5) days, and (B) the number of days after May 1, 2016 that Tenant’s Work is not substantially complete.

Page 1

Exhibit B-1

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

C. The “Actual Substantial Completion Date” shall mean the date on which the Landlord’s Work (other than the Remaining Landlord’s Work (as defined below)) is substantially completed, as hereinafter defined, such that Tenant may, subject to completion of Tenant’s Work and installation of Tenant’s furniture, fixtures and equipment, and obtaining a certificate of occupancy, lawfully use and occupy the Premises (collectively, the “Substantial Completion Conditions”).

D. The “Substantial Completion Date” shall be the “Actual Substantial Completion Date,” unless Landlord’s Work is actually delayed by Tenant Delays, as hereinafter defined, in which event the “Substantial Completion Date” shall be the date that the Actual Substantial Completion Date would have occurred but for such Tenant Delays. Landlord shall provide Tenant with not less than seven (7) days prior written notice of the anticipated Actual Substantial Completion Date.

E. The terms “substantially complete,” “substantially completed” and “substantial completion” shall mean that the Landlord’s Work has been completed, except for (i) the Punch List Items, and (ii) those items noted in the Base Building Specifications for later performance and/or completion by Landlord (the “Remaining Landlord’s Work”). “Punch List Items” shall be defined as minor, punch list-type items of work and adjustment of equipment and fixtures that can be completed after Xxxxxx commences the performance of Tenant’s Work or after its occupancy of the Premises without causing material interference with the performance of Xxxxxx’s Work or Tenant’s use and occupancy (as applicable). Landlord shall complete, as soon as conditions practically permit, all Punch List Items and the Remaining Landlord’s Work. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the completion of any Punch List Items in the clean room manufacturing space in the Premises after Tenant has commenced business operations in the Premises shall be performed during non-business hours of Tenant. Landlord shall use diligent efforts to complete all Punch List Items within sixty (60) days after the Substantial Completion Date (except for long lead items and items which can only be performed during certain seasons or weather, which items shall be completed diligently as soon as the season and/or weather permits, but only to the extent completion of the same can be so delayed without materially adversely affecting Tenant’s Work or the obtaining of a certificate of occupancy), and Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord in providing reasonable access as may be required to complete such work in a normal manner. Xxxxxx agrees to reasonably cooperate with Xxxxxxxx to obtain approval of the Landlord’s Work by the Lexington Inspectional Services Department following the substantial completion of the Landlord’s Work.

F. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Work Agreement, Tenant and Xxxxxx’s contractors and vendors shall have reasonable access to the Premises from and after the Tenant Access Date to perform Tenant’s Work. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that, after the Tenant Access Date, remaining components of the Landlord’s Work in the Premises and the Building and the Tenant’s Work in the Premises will be performed simultaneously and accordingly Landlord and Tenant agree to work cooperatively in order to coordinate the performance of the Landlord’s Work and the Tenant’s Work so that neither party unreasonably interferes with or delays the efforts of the other to complete its respective portion of the work within the time periods set forth herein. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree to reasonably cooperate with each other in good faith so that Tenant and Landlord and their respective contractors, subcontractors, project managers and vendors will have ongoing access to and through the Premises in order to perform Tenant’s Work and Landlord’s Work in as expeditious and efficient a manner as possible, and so as to minimize any interference in the performance by the other party’s work, provided, however, such reasonable cooperation shall not require Landlord to perform any of Landlord’s Work after hours or on an overtime or premium pay basis, except to the extent that the timing of completion thereof may materially interfere with Tenant’s use and occupancy or delay completion of Tenant’s Work or Tenant obtaining a certificate of occupancy for the Premises.

Exhibit B-1

00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx - Fractyl (FINAL)

G. A “Tenant Delay” shall be defined as any actual delay in the commencement, progress or substantial completion of any elements of the Landlord’s Work caused by, or arising out of, the following (provided that in each instance Landlord has first given Tenant a Tenant Delay Notice to the extent required below): (i) the default of Tenant, or Tenant’s agents, employees or contractors under the Lease, including this Work Agreement, or (ii) the failure of Tenant or Tenant’s Architect to make any submission or to respond to any written submission to Tenant from Landlord or to take any required action within the time periods for such submission, response or action as set forth in the Lease and/or this Work Agreement, including, without limitation, Tenant’s failure to deliver any submission set of the Tenant’s Plans meeting the requirements of Exhibit B-3; or (iii) Tenant Change Orders made by Tenant in accordance with Section 1.2 below; or (iv) any delays resulting from Tenant or any of Tenant’s contractors not complying with the rules and regulations for the performance of Tenant’s Work in the Building; or (v) any other actual delays caused by the acts or, where there is a duty of Tenant to act under the Lease or this Work Agreement, omissions by Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx’s contractors, architects, engineers or anyone else engaged by, through or under Tenant in connection with the preparation of the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy, including, without limitation, utility companies and other entities furnishing communications, data processing or other service, equipment, or furniture. As set forth in Section 1.2, Landlord shall, to the extent possible, advise Tenant at the time of approval of such Change Order of the estimated length of such delay and Tenant shall have the right, within three (3) business days after Landlord advises Tenant thereof, to withdraw or modify the Change Order so as to avoid the delay. Tenant agrees that no Tenant Delay shall delay commencement of the Term or the obligation to pay Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent, regardless of the reason for such Tenant Delay or whether or not it is within the control of Tenant or any such employee. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the reasonable amount by which the Landlord’s Work is increased as the result of any Tenant Delay within thirty (30) days of billing therefor, and such amounts shall be considered to be Additional Rent.

With respect to any Tenant Delay claimed by Landlord, Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with written notice (a “Tenant Delay Notice”) advising Tenant that such Tenant Delay is occurring and setting forth Landlord’s good faith estimate as to the likely length of such Tenant Delay within a reasonable period of time after Xxxxxxxx becomes aware of such Xxxxxx Xxxxx, provided, however, that Landlord will not have any obligation to deliver any Tenant Delay Notice to Tenant with respect to (1) any Tenant Delay which is based upon Xxxxxx’s failure to act within a time certain which is expressly set forth in this Work Agreement, or (2) any other Tenant Delay that Xxxxxxxx has previously disclosed to Tenant or Tenant is otherwise aware of, such as, by way of example only, the Tenant Delay that Landlord disclosed to Tenant in connection with Xxxxxxxx’s review and approval of a Tenant Change Order.Notwithstanding anything herein or in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord may satisfy the Tenant Delay Notice requirement by email notification to Tenant’s Construction Representative.

Exhibit B-1

1.1	OUTSIDE COMPLETION DATE

If Landlord shall have failed substantially to complete the Landlord’s Work on or before the Outside Completion Date as defined in Section 1.1 of the Lease (which date shall be extended automatically for such periods of time as Landlord is prevented from proceeding with or completing the same by reason of Force Majeure or Tenant Delay), Tenant shall have the right to terminate the Lease by giving notice to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to do so before such completion and within the time period from the Outside Completion Date (as so extended) until the date which is thirty (30) days subsequent to the Outside Completion Date (as so extended); and, upon the giving of such notice, the term of the Lease shall cease and come to an end without further liability or obligation on the part of either party unless, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, Landlord substantially completes the Landlord’s Work; and such right of termination shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy for Landlord’s failure so to complete such work within such time. Each day of Tenant Delay shall be deemed conclusively to cause an equivalent day of delay by Landlord in substantially completing the work to be done by Landlord pursuant to Section 1 of this Work Agreement, and thereby automatically extend for each such equivalent day of delay the date of the Outside Completion Date.

1.2	TENANT’S RIGHT TO REQUEST CHANGES TO LANDLORD’S WORK

If Xxxxxx’s design of Tenant’s Work includes any features, attributes, materials or specifications that will require changes or additions to the Landlord’s Work, Tenant may request changes in writing (“Tenant Change Orders”) in the Landlord’s Work to accommodate Xxxxxx’s interior space design, subject to the request being sent to Landlord prior to December 1, 2015 (time being of the essence). In the event that Tenant proposes any Tenant Change Orders or Tenant’s Plans (as hereinafter defined) contain any Tenant Change Orders pursuant to the foregoing, Landlord shall, within ten (10) business days (or other such time depending upon the magnitude of the change) of such request, provide Tenant with a statement of the reasonable out of pocket additional costs to be incurred by Landlord (after taking into account any cost savings that results from the Tenant Change Order) to implement the change in Landlord’s Work as a result of such change and the amount of delay, if any, that Landlord estimates will result in the completion of Landlord’s Work as a result of such change (“Landlord’s Change Estimate Notice”). Landlord shall have the right to withhold approval of any such Tenant Change Orders unless Xxxxxx agrees to pay the reasonable costs incurred to redesign the plans for Xxxxxxxx’s Work and to perform any of the changes or additions to the Landlord’s Work and Landlord and Tenant agree upon the Tenant Delay that will result from the re-design and implementation of such Tenant Change Orders. Tenant shall be charged a construction management fee payable to Landlord equal to three (3%) percent of the cost of such Tenant Change Order. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any Tenant Change Order requested by Tenant, so long as: (i) Tenant pays, via a deduction from the Landlord’s Contribution as set forth hereinbelow, all additional costs specified by Landlord in Landlord’s Change Estimate Notice as such costs are incurred, (ii) the change is consistent with the governmental agreements and approvals for the Building, (iii) the change is consistent with design standards for comparable office buildings in the market where the Building is located and does not have a material adverse effect on the value of the Building or the Site, and (iv) Tenant notifies Landlord within ten (10) business days after receiving Landlord’s Change Estimate Notice that Tenant authorizes Landlord to make such change and Tenant agrees that any delay in the performance of Landlord’s Work arising from such change is a Tenant Delay. Landlord shall have no obligation to make any changes to the Landlord’s Work except in accordance with this Section 1.2. Notwithstanding anything in the Lease or this Work Agreement to the contrary, the costs of any Tenant Change Orders (after taking into account any cost savings that results from the Tenant Change Order) may be deducted by Landlord from the Landlord’s Contribution, and, if the Landlord’s Contribution is not sufficient to pay in full the total costs of the applicable Tenant Change Order, Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord, as Additional Rent, within fifteen (15) days of billing.

1.3	LANDLORD’S WARRANTY

Except to the extent to which Tenant shall have given Landlord notice of respects in which Landlord has not properly performed Landlord’s Work under this Work Agreement (or any incomplete items of Landlord’s Work or any defects or deficiencies therewith) not later than the date eleven (11) months from the Commencement Date, Tenant shall be deemed conclusively to have approved Landlord’s construction and shall have no claim that Landlord has failed to perform any of Landlord’s obligations under this Work Agreement. Landlord agrees to correct or repair, at its expense, any items of Landlord’s Work which are incomplete or do not conform to the work contemplated under the Base Building Specifications and as to which, in either case, Tenant shall have given notice to Landlord, as aforesaid.

2.0	TENANT’S WORK

From and after the Tenant Access Date, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense (except for Landlord’s Contribution, as hereinafter set forth), shall perform all work necessary to prepare the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy (“Tenant’s Work”) in accordance with plans and specifications prepared by the Approved Tenant Architect or another architect, licensed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and approved by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) (the “Tenant’s Architect”), such plans and specifications to be subject to the approval of the Landlord as set forth in Section 2.0(B) below. Tenant’s Work shall be performed in accordance with the provisions of the Lease (including, without limitation, Article 5 and this Exhibit B-1); provided, however, that in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between any provision of the Lease (including, without limitation, Article 5) and this Exhibit B-1, the provisions of this Exhibit B-1 shall govern and control with respect to Tenant’s Work.

(A) Tenant’s Architect and Contractor. Tenant shall engage Xxxxxx’s Architect to prepare the Plans (as defined below) for Tenant’s Work. Landlord approves the Tenant’s Approved Project Manager as Xxxxxx’s project manager. Landlord approves X. Xxxxxx & Associates, Inc., Erland Construction, Bowdoin Construction Corp. and Xxxxxxx Construction/Design (“Approved Contractors”) as Tenant’s contractor for Tenant’s Work.

Within thirty (30) days after Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of Xxxxxx’s notice requesting the Broker Determination and stating the name of the broker selected by Xxxxxx, Landlord shall give written notice to Tenant of Landlord’s selection of a broker having at least the affiliation and experience referred to above.

3. Selection of Third Broker. Within ten (10) days thereafter the two (2) brokers so selected shall select a third such broker also having at least the affiliation and experience referred to above who shall be impartial.

4. Rental Value Determination. Within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third broker, the three (3) brokers so selected, by majority opinion, shall make a determination of the annual fair market rental value of the Premises for the period referred to in the Lease. Such annual fair market rental value determination (x) may include provision for annual increases in rent during said term if so determined, (y) shall take into account the as-is condition of the Premises and (z) shall take account of, and be expressed in relation to, all other relevant factors. The brokers shall advise Landlord and Tenant in writing by the expiration of said thirty (30) day period of the annual fair market rental value which as so determined shall be referred to as the Prevailing Market Rent.

5. Resolution of Broker Deadlock. If the Brokers are unable to agree at least by majority on a determination of annual fair market rental value, then Xxxxxxxx’s broker and Xxxxxx’s broker shall send a notice to the third broker with copies thereof to Landlord and Tenant by the end of the thirty (30) day period for making said determination setting forth their individual determinations of annual fair market rental value. The Prevailing Market Rent shall be determined solely by the third broker by selecting either the determination of Xxxxxxxx’s broker or Xxxxxx’s broker, whichever is closest to the third broker’s own calculation of Prevailing Market Rent.

6. Costs. Each party shall pay the costs and expenses of the broker selected by it and each shall pay one half (¹⁄₂) of the costs and expenses of the third broker.

7. Failure to Select Broker or Failure of Broker to Serve. If Tenant shall have requested a Broker Determination and Landlord shall not have designated a broker within the time period provided therefor above, then Xxxxxx’s Broker shall alone make the determination of Prevailing Market Rent in writing to Landlord and Tenant within thirty (30) days after the expiration of Landlord’s right to designate a broker hereunder. If Xxxxxx and Landlord have both designated brokers but the two brokers so designated do not, within a period of fifteen (15) days after the appointment of the second broker, agree upon and designate the third broker willing so to act, the Tenant, the Landlord or either broker previously designated may request the Boston Bar Association (or such organization as may succeed to the Boston Bar Association) to designate the third broker willing so to act and a broker so appointed shall, for all purposes, have the same standing and powers as though he had been seasonably appointed by the brokers first appointed. In case of the inability or refusal to serve of any person designated as a broker, or in case any broker for any reason ceases to be such, a broker to fill such vacancy shall be appointed by the Tenant, the Landlord, the brokers first appointed or the Boston Bar Association as the case may be, whichever made the original appointment, or if the person who made the original appointment fails to fill such vacancy, upon application of any broker who continues to act or by the Landlord or Tenant such vacancy may be filled by the Boston Bar Association and any broker so appointed to fill such vacancy shall have the same standing and powers as though originally appointed.
