LEASE
By this Lease Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant leases from Landlord
the Premises described on the Reference Page. The Reference Page, including all
terms defined thereon, is incorporated as part of this Lease.
1. USE AND RESTRICTIONS ON USE.
1.1 The Premises are to be used solely for the Permitted Use stated on the
Reference Page. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about
the Premises which will be used for any unlawful purpose. Tenant shall not do,
permit or suffer in, on, or about the Premises, the commission of any waste.
Tenant shall comply with all governmental laws, ordinances and regulations
applicable to the use of the Premises and its occupancy and shall promptly
comply with all governmental orders and directions for the correction,
prevention and abatement of any violations in or upon, or in connection with,
the Premises, all at Tenant's sole expense, but excluding those responsibilities
of Landlord pursuant to Sections 6.1, 7.1 and 38 hereof. Tenant shall not do or
permit anything to be done on or about the Premises or bring or keep anything
into the Premises which will in any way increase the rate of, invalidate or
prevent the procuring of any insurance protecting against loss or damage to the
Building or any of its contents by fire or other casualty or against liability
for damage to property or injury to persons in or about the Building or any part
thereof.
1.2 Tenant shall not, and shall not direct, suffer or permit any of its
agents, contractors, employees, licensees or invitees to at any time handle,
use, manufacture, store or dispose of in or about the Premises or the Building
any (collectively "Hazardous Materials") flammables, explosives, radioactive
materials, hazardous wastes or materials, toxic wastes or materials, or other
similar substances, petroleum products or derivatives or any substance subject
to regulation by or under any federal, state and local laws and ordinances
relating to the protection of the environment or the keeping, use or disposition
of environmentally hazardous materials, substances, or wastes, presently in
effect or hereafter adopted, all amendments to any of them, and all rules and
regulations issued pursuant to any of such laws or ordinances (collectively
"Environmental Laws"), nor shall Tenant suffer or permit any Hazardous Materials
to be used in any manner not fully in compliance with all Environmental Laws, in
the Premises or the Building and appurtenant land or cause the environment to
become contaminated with any Hazardous Materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant may (i) handle, store, use or dispose of products containing small
quantities of Hazardous Materials (such as aerosol cans containing insecticides,
toner for copiers, solvents, paints, paint remover and the like) to the extent
customary and necessary for the use of the Premises for general office purposes
and in connection with the Permitted Use; (ii) provide on-site, mobile fueling
for Tenant's vehicles, subject to any approvals which may be required by the
Town of Bellingham, and (iii) wash its vehicles, subject to any necessary
approvals from the Town of Bellingham; in each case provided that Tenant shall
always handle, store, use, and dispose of Hazardous Materials in a safe and
lawful manner and never allow such Hazardous Materials to contaminate the
Premises, Building or appurtenant land or the environment in violation of
Environmental Laws. Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold each and
all of the Landlord Entities (as defined in costs and reasonable attorney's
fees) incurred by reason of any failure of Tenant to fully comply with all
applicable Environmental Laws, or the presence, handling, use or disposition in
or from
the Premises of any Hazardous Materials (even though permissible under all
applicable Environmental Laws or the provisions of this Lease) caused by Tenant
or its agents or invitees except to the extent of Landlord's obligations
pursuant to Section 38 hereof, or by reason of any failure of Tenant to keep,
observe, or perform any provision of this Section 1.2. Landlord represents that
the Land is currently free of environmental contamination (and in compliance
with all Environmental Laws) and shall indemnify Tenant and be responsible for
any costs of remediation of any environmental contamination, should any be
discovered to have been existing at the Land as of the date hereof.
1.3 Landlord shall provide Tenant, as appurtenant to the Premises and
without extra charge, (i) with the use, in common with others in the Building,
of the common area parking servicing the Premises which is a ratio of at least
1.13 parking spaces for each 1,000 rentable square feet of the Building. Tenant
shall have truck access to drive around the Building and park at its loading
docks. Landlord agrees to proceed as soon as possible and to use diligent
efforts to obtain a modification to the site plan approval and any other permits
necessary to change the truck parking as shown on the Modified Site Plan
attached hereto as Exhibit C and shall allow Tenant the opportunity to
participate in this process.
2. TERM.
2.1 The Term of this Lease shall begin on the delivery date ("Delivery
Date") which shall be the later to occur of (a) the Scheduled Delivery Date
shown on the Reference Page, and (b) the date when Landlord shall tender
possession of the Premises to Tenant with Landlord's Work described on Exhibit B
attached hereto substantially completed (but for punch list items that do not
materially interfere with Tenant's ability to use the Premises for the Permitted
Use) and all mechanical, plumbing and utility systems in working order and
available for Tenant's immediate use, and Landlord shall have provided Tenant
with a certificate of occupancy (or temporary certificate of occupancy) from the
Town of Bellingham, Massachusetts with respect to the Premises. Landlord agrees
to use reasonable and diligent efforts to obtain a certificate of occupancy and
deliver the Premises to the Tenant. As soon as it shall be determined, Landlord
and Tenant shall execute a memorandum in recordable form setting forth the
actual Delivery Date and Termination Date. In the event the Delivery Date shall
not have occurred by August 25, 2005 for any reason other than the fault of
Tenant, Tenant shall receive a credit against its first rental payments due
hereunder at the rate of $1,884.82 for each two (2) days by which the Delivery
Date is extended beyond August 25, 2005. If the Delivery Date shall not have
occurred by September 25, 2005 for any reason other than the fault of Tenant,
Tenant shall receive a credit against its first rental payment due hereunder at
the rate of $1,884.82 for each day by which the Delivery Date is extended beyond
September 25, 2005. If the Delivery Date shall not have occurred on or before
December 10, 2005, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon ten
(10) days written notice to Landlord.
2.2 Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Annual
Rent and all other charges due under this Lease shall begin on the Rent
Commencement Date which shall be the Delivery Date.
2.3 After the Lease Reference Date, and only after Landlord's prior
consent and scheduled so as not to interfere with Landlord's Work at least four
(4) weeks prior to the
2
Delivery Date, Landlord shall afford Tenant reasonable access to the Premises in
order for Tenant to install telecommunication (which may include a satellite
dish(es) upon the roof of the Building, where designated by Landlord, at
Tenant's expense and responsibility for any damage which the installation or
maintenance of the same may cause to the roof of the Building) and computer
wiring and equipment and other furniture, fixtures, warehouse racking and
equipment. In the event Landlord shall permit Tenant to occupy the Premises
prior to the Delivery Date, such occupancy shall be subject to all the
provisions of this Lease other than the payment of Rent and Additional Rent and
shall not advance the Termination Date.
2.4 Option to Extend. Tenant shall have two (2) options to extend the Term
for a period of five (5) years each following the end of the existing Term, so
long as no uncured Event of Default by Tenant exists during the period from the
time of the exercise of this option until the end of the Term. Such options may
be exercised by notice from Tenant to Landlord given not less than twelve (12)
months prior to the expiration of the Term. Upon the giving of such notice, this
Lease and the Term hereof shall automatically be extended for five (5) years
without the necessity for the execution of any other instrument in confirmation
thereof except for a document memorializing the Annual Rent established as set
forth in Section 3.3 below for the extended Term and an amended notice of lease
to be signed by the parties suitable for recording that Tenant may register or
record at its cost and expense. Except for the rent payable during the option
period, which shall be determined in the manner provided in Section 3.3 below,
and the fact that there shall be no further option to extend, each extension
shall be upon all the same terms, conditions and provisions as contained in this
Lease. Whenever the context shall not be inconsistent therewith, references in
this Lease to the Term hereof shall be deemed to include the option period for
which the original Term shall then be so extended.
2.5 Contiguous Space Expansion Option. Landlord agrees that it will not,
during the Term of this Lease, lease any space in the Building which is
contiguous to the Premises ("Contiguous Space") without first offering the same
to Tenant upon the same terms and conditions as Landlord would be willing to
lease to a third party. If Landlord intends to lease Contiguous Space, Landlord
shall first provide written notice of such terms and conditions to Tenant
("Landlord Notice") and Tenant shall have a period of ten (10) days from receipt
of Landlord's Notice within which to agree to lease such Contiguous Space upon
the exact same terms and conditions as set forth in Landlord's Notice. If Tenant
shall notify Landlord of its desire to lease the Contiguous Space within such
ten (10) day period, then this Lease shall be modified to include the Contiguous
Space upon the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease, except as
the same may be modified with respect to the Contiguous Space by the terms set
forth in Landlord's Notice. If Tenant shall fail to accept the offer contained
in Landlord's Notice within such ten (10) day period, then Landlord shall be
free to lease the Contiguous Space to a third party on terms and conditions no
more favorable to any third party than those set forth in Landlord's Notice.
3. RENT.
3.1 Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the Annual Rent in effect from time
to time by paying the Monthly Installment of Rent then in effect on or before
the first day of each full calendar month during the Term, except that the first
month's rent shall be paid upon the Delivery Date. The Monthly Installment of
Rent in effect at any time shall be one-twelfth of the
3
Annual Rent in effect at such time. Rent for any period during the Term which is
less than a full month shall be a prorated portion of the Monthly Installment of
Rent based (except as otherwise set forth in this Lease) upon a thirty (30) day
month. Said rent shall be paid to Landlord, without deduction or offset and
without notice or demand, except as may be required by Section 19.7, at the
Landlord's address, as set forth on the Reference Page, or to such other person
or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing.
3.2 Tenant recognizes that late payment of any rent or other sum due under
this Lease will result in administrative expense to Landlord, the extent of
which additional expense is extremely difficult and economically impractical to
ascertain. Tenant therefore agrees that if rent or any other sum is not paid
within seven (7) days of the date when due and payable pursuant to this Lease, a
late charge shall be imposed in an amount equal to four percent (4%) of the
unpaid rent or other payment. The amount of the late charge to be paid by Tenant
shall be reassessed and added to Tenant's obligation for each successive monthly
period until paid. The provisions of this Section 3.2 in no way relieve Tenant
of the obligation to pay rent or other payments on or before the date on which
they are due, nor do the terms of this Section 3.2 in any way affect Landlord's
remedies pursuant to Article 19 in the event said rent or other payment is
unpaid after date due.
3.3 If Tenant shall extend the Term pursuant to Section 2.4 above, Tenant
shall pay Annual Rent during each extension of the Term equal to the greater of
(a) Market Rent, as defined below, or (b) the Annual Rent in effect upon the
last day of the Term existing prior to the extension period in question.
"Market Rent" shall be computed for the option period at the then
effective current rentals being charged to new tenants in buildings of
comparable type, build-out and quality to that of the Premises, in the same
rental market area as that of the Premises, taking into account and giving
effect to, in determining comparability, without limitation, such considerations
as size, location of premises, lease term, whether or not there will be a
brokerage commission charged, and Real Estate Tax and Operating Expense charges
to the tenant.
Landlord and Tenant shall use best efforts to agree on the Market Rent no
later than thirty (30) days after Landlord receives Tenant's notice of its
intent to extend the Term. In the event Landlord and Tenant cannot so agree,
Landlord shall provide Tenant with notice as to its designation of Market Rent
("Landlord's Designation") for the five year option period in question no later
than thirty (30) days after receiving Tenant's notice of its intention to extend
the Term and shall furnish comparable data in support of such designation. If
Tenant disagrees with Landlord's Designation of the Market Rent, then Tenant
shall have the right, by written notice given within thirty (30) days after
Tenant's receipt of Landlord's Designation ("Tenant's Arbitration Notice"), to
submit the determination of Market Rent to arbitration as follows. Market Rent
shall be determined by appraisers, one to be chosen by Tenant, one to be chosen
by Landlord, and a third to be selected, if necessary, as below provided. All
appraisers selected under this paragraph shall be experienced, M.A.I. real
estate appraisers with at least 10 years experience with properties in the
Greater Boston Area and shall not have been employed by the party choosing such
appraiser in the prior five (5) years. Within twenty-one (21) days after
Tenant's Arbitration Notice, the parties shall each designate its own appraiser
and notify the other of its chosen appraiser. Unless such two appraisers shall
have reached a unanimous
4
decision within thirty (30) days after their designation, then they shall so
notify the then President of the Greater Boston Real Estate Board and request
him or her to select an impartial third appraiser to act hereunder. Such third
appraiser shall receive submittals of the determination of Market Rent from each
of Landlord's and Tenant's appraisers with accompanying data to support their
determination. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such information from
Landlord's and Tenant's appraisers, the third appraiser shall determine Market
Rent only by selecting one or the other of the two appraisals without
modification. The decision of the third appraiser as to which appraisal the
third appraiser believes to be closest to Market Rent shall be final and binding
upon the parties. Landlord and Tenant shall each bear the expense of their own
appraiser and shall bear the expense of the third appraiser (if any) equally.
4. ADDITIONAL RENT.
4.1 This Lease is a so-called "triple net" lease. For the purpose of this
Article 4, the following terms are defined as follows:
4.1.1 LEASE YEAR: Each calendar year falling partly or wholly within
the Term.
4.1.2 OPERATING EXPENSES: All direct costs of operation,
maintenance, repair and management of the Building (excluding all equipment
related to Tenant's HVAC and refrigeration and freezer areas which shall be at
Tenant's sole expense), as determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, including the following costs by way of illustration, but
not limitation: water and sewer charges; insurance charges of or relating to all
insurance policies and endorsements deemed by Landlord to be reasonably
necessary or desirable and relating in any manner to the protection,
preservation, or operation of the Building or any part thereof; utility costs,
including, but not limited to, the cost of heat, light, power, steam, gas, and
waste disposal (but not the wiring of electricity to the Premises or to any
other tenant space); the cost of security and alarm services (including any
central station signaling system); window cleaning costs; maintenance labor
costs; costs and expenses of managing the Building, including a management fee
not to exceed three (3%) percent of the gross annual income of the Building;
heating, ventilation and air conditioning maintenance costs; material costs;
equipment costs including the cost of maintenance, repair and service agreements
and rental and leasing costs; purchase costs of equipment other than capital
items; tool costs; licenses, permits and inspection fees; wages and salaries;
employee benefits and payroll taxes; accounting fees; any sales, use or service
taxes incurred in connection therewith. Operating Expenses shall not include
janitorial services, which are to be provided by Tenant to the Premises,
depreciation or amortization of the Building or equipment in the Building except
as provided herein, loan principal payments, costs of alterations of tenants'
premises, leasing commissions, interest expenses on long-term borrowings,
advertising costs or management salaries for executive personnel, all costs and
expenses incurred in connection with leasing space in the Building, including,
but not limited to, advertising and promotional expenses and real estate
brokerage commissions; legal fees incurred in leasing or in disputes with
tenants; cost of construction allowances provided to other tenants; interest or
principal payments on any mortgage or deed of trust or any ground lease payments
or any other financing costs or fees; any cost or expenditure for which Landlord
is reimbursed; costs of any services furnished to other tenants but which
Landlord does not make available to Tenant or is available to Tenant only for an
additional direct charge; any expense resulting from the negligence of Landlord,
its agents,
5
contractors or employees; costs recoverable by Landlord under its insurance
policies; costs resulting from defects in the design or construction of the
Building; cost of construction of new tenant or common area space in the
Building; attorneys fees, costs and disbursements incurred in connection with
matters relating to the formation of Landlord as an entity and maintaining its
continued existence as an entity; or costs resulting from Landlord's breach of
this Lease or imposed upon Landlord by any governmental authority as a result of
the violation of any law, statute or ordinance by Landlord or its agents or
employees. In addition, Landlord shall be entitled to amortize and include as an
additional rental adjustment: (i) an allocable portion of the cost of capital
improvement items which are reasonably calculated to reduce Operating Expenses;
(ii) fire sprinklers and suppression systems and other life safety systems
required by changes in the law after the commencement of the Term; and (iii)
other capital expenses which are required under any governmental laws,
regulations or ordinances which were not applicable to the Building at the time
it was constructed. All such costs shall be amortized over the reasonable life
of such improvements in accordance with such reasonable life and amortization
schedules as shall be determined by Landlord in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, with interest on the unamortized amount at one
percent (1%) in excess of the prime lending rate announced from time to time as
such by Bank of America, N.A. Landlord estimates that the initial Operating
Expenses shall be approximately $1.50/square foot, based upon similar buildings
which Landlord owns or manages.
4.1.3 TAXES: Real estate taxes and any other taxes, charges and
assessments which are levied with respect to the Land and Building, or with
respect to any improvements, fixtures and equipment or other property of
Landlord, real or personal, located in the Building and used in connection with
the operation of the Building and said Land, any payments to any ground lessor
in reimbursement of tax payments made by such lessor; and all reasonable fees,
expenses and costs incurred by Landlord in investigating, protesting, contesting
or in any way seeking to reduce or avoid increase in any assessments, levies or
the tax rate pertaining to any Taxes to be paid by Landlord in any Lease Year.
Landlord agrees to seek an abatement of Taxes if requested to do so by tenants
occupying at least 51% of the Building (including the Premises), provided, if so
requested, any cost of obtaining the same will be borne by the Tenants of the
Building in their respective Proportionate Shares. If Landlord secures an
abatement or refund of any Taxes, Tenant shall receive its proportionate share
of the amount of such abatement or refund (i.e., the net amount remaining after
paying all reasonable costs and expenses of securing the abatement or refund,
including reasonable attorneys' fees) as a credit to be applied by Landlord
against rent next becoming due (or, if no further rent is due from Tenant, by a
cash payment by Landlord to Tenant). Landlord's obligation to pay such abatement
or refund to Tenant shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
Taxes shall also include any substitute or additional tax on real estate or the
profits therefrom, whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of
the parties to this Lease: (a) upon, allocable to, or measured by or on the
gross or net rent payable under this Lease, including without limitation any
gross income tax or excise tax levied by the State, any political subdivision
thereof, or the Federal Government with respect to the receipt of such rent; (b)
upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management,
maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy of the Premises or any portion
thereof, including any sales, use or service tax imposed as a result thereof;
(c) upon or measured by the Tenant's gross receipts or payroll or the value of
Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property of Tenant or
leasehold improvements, alterations or additions located in the Premises; or (d)
upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant
6
is a party creating or transferring any interest of Tenant in this Lease or the
Premises. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant agrees to pay, before
delinquency, any and all taxes levied or assessed against Tenant and which
become payable during the term hereof upon Tenant's equipment, furniture,
fixtures and other personal property of Tenant located in the Premises. Taxes
shall not include any corporate franchise, or estate, inheritance, succession,
transfer, gift, profit or net income tax or capital levy, or tax imposed upon
any transfer by Landlord of its interest in this Lease or the Building.
4.2 Tenant shall pay as additional rent for each Lease Year Tenant's
Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses and Taxes incurred for such Lease
Year.
4.3 The annual determination of Operating Expenses shall be made by
Landlord and shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant (subject to Tenant's
rights pursuant to Section 4.7 below). Tenant may review the books and records
supporting such determination in the office of Landlord, or Landlord's agent,
during normal business hours, upon giving Landlord five (5) days advance written
notice within ninety (90) days after receipt of such determination, and in no
event more often than once in any one year period.
4.4 Prior to the actual determination thereof for a Lease Year, Landlord
may from time to time (but in no event more often than once in any one year
period) estimate Tenant's liability for Operating Expenses and/or Taxes under
Section 4.2. Landlord will give Tenant written notification of the amount of
such estimate and Tenant agrees that it will pay, by increase of its Monthly
Installments of Rent due in such Lease Year, additional rent in the amount of
such estimate. Any such increased rate of Monthly Installments of Rent pursuant
to this Section 4.4 shall remain in effect until written notification to Tenant
of the actual Operating Expenses pursuant to Section 4.3 above.
4.5 When the above mentioned actual determination of Tenant's liability
for Operating Expenses and/or Taxes is made for any Lease Year and when Tenant
is so notified in writing, then:
4.5.1 If the total additional rent Tenant actually paid pursuant to
Section 4.4 on account of Operating Expenses and/or Taxes for the Lease Year is
less than Tenant's liability for Operating Expenses and/or Taxes, then Tenant
shall pay such deficiency to Landlord as additional rent in one lump sum within
thirty (30) days of receipt of Landlord's xxxx therefore (irrespective as to
whether such xxxx shall have been rendered after Tenant shall no longer occupy
the Premises); and
4.5.2 If the total additional rent Tenant actually paid pursuant to
Section 4.4 on account of Operating Expenses and/or Taxes for the Lease Year is
more than Tenant's liability for Operating Expenses and/or Taxes, then Landlord
shall pay the difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days irrespective as to
whether Tenant shall no longer occupy the Premises.
4.6 If the Delivery Date is other than January 1 or if the Termination
Date is other than December 31, Tenant's liability for Operating Expenses and
Taxes for the Lease Year in which said Date occurs shall be prorated based upon
a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year.
7
4.7 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary,
Tenant shall have the right to audit the Operating Expenses, Taxes and any and
all other costs, charges or expenses (collectively, the "charges") for which
Tenant is required to reimburse Landlord pursuant to this Lease, and Landlord
agrees to cooperate with any such audit. Landlord shall maintain complete books
and records in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for the
same period as required for income tax reporting purposes. Such audit(s) shall
only take place within one (1) year after such charges are due in accordance
with the terms hereof. If it shall be determined as a result of such audit(s)
that Tenant has overpaid any of such charges, Landlord shall promptly refund to
Tenant the amount of such overpayment. If the amount of Tenant's overpayment
exceeds four percent (4%) of said charges, Landlord shall promptly pay the cost
of said audit(s) upon Tenant's submission of an invoice for same.
5. TENANT'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE. The Tenant's obligation under this Lease is
specifically contingent upon Landlord using reasonably diligent efforts, at its
own expense, to secure all permits, licenses and other governmental and private
approvals which are required for the modification of the Site Plan as shown on
Exhibit C by February 10, 2005 (the "Approvals").
If Landlord does not receive said Approvals by February 10, 2005, then
Tenant, at its sole option, may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice
to Landlord on or before February 20, 2005, accompanied by a lease termination
payment in the amount equal to Landlord's costs relative to Tenant's specific
construction requirements for the Premises, which costs include the Base
Building Architectural Design, Base Building Sub-Redesign, Fit Up of
Architectural Design, Steel Premium for Freezer/Cooler Space, Preconstruction
Activities/Dacon Project Planning, Refrigeration Sub-Design and General
Conditions and Supervision (45 days extra due to termination and re-work), but
such payment shall in no event exceed $85,000.00. If Tenant gives such timely
notice and payment, this Lease shall terminate and be of no further force or
effect; otherwise, Tenant shall conclusively be deemed to have waived any
termination right it may have under this Section 5.
6. LANDLORD'S WORK/ALTERATIONS.
6.1 Landlord shall, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, cause to be
performed the work required described on Exhibit B ("Landlord's Work"). Landlord
shall use due diligence to promptly commence construction and shall use diligent
efforts to complete Landlord's Work. All Landlord's Work shall be done in a good
and workmanlike manner employing good materials and in compliance with all
applicable laws, rules, regulations and codes, including, without limitation,
all building and zoning laws. Landlord shall not make any material changes in
Landlord's Work without the prior written approval of Tenant, but Landlord shall
have the right to substitute materials of equal or higher quality if materials
specified on Exhibit B are not available in time for a timely completion of
Landlord's Work. Tenant shall have the right to install (at its own cost and
expense) and operate a generator on the (10' x 15') generator pad shown on the

governmental approvals necessary to modify the site plan to reduce the parking
and create trailer parking areas as shown on Exhibit C, and if Landlord is able
to obtain such approvals, the parking areas shall be built according to said
Exhibit C.
8
6.2 Construction Representatives. Each party authorizes the other to rely,
in connection with plans and construction, upon approval and other actions on
the party's behalf by any Construction Representative of the party named in the
Reference Page or any person hereafter designated in substitution or addition by
written notice to the party relying. Tenant's Construction Representative shall
be afforded full and complete access to the Premises and Landlord's Work during
the construction of such work, and Landlord shall allow Tenant's Construction
Representative to attend meetings relating thereto.
6.3 Tenant shall not make or suffer to be made any alterations, additions,
or improvements, including, but not limited to, the attachment of any fixtures
or equipment in, on, or to the Premises or any part thereof or the making of any
improvements as required by Article 7, without the prior written consent of
Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed. When applying for such consent, Tenant shall, if requested by Landlord,
furnish complete plans and specifications for such alterations, additions and
improvements. Landlord may condition any consent on Tenant's agreement to remove
such alterations, improvements or additions at the end of the Term and to
restore the Premises to their previous condition. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
non-structural alterations costing less than $50,000.00 may be made by Tenant
without Landlord's approval provided Tenant provides Landlord with as-built
plans for such alteration(s) and will remove the same from the Premises upon
Landlord's request upon the termination of this Lease.
6.4 In the event Landlord consents to the making of any such alteration,
addition or improvement by Tenant, the same shall be made at Tenant's sole cost
and expense. If Tenant shall employ any Contractor other than Landlord's
Contractor and such other Contractor or any Subcontractor of such other
Contractor shall employ any non-union labor or supplier, Tenant shall be
responsible for any and all delays, damages and extra costs suffered by Landlord
as a result of any dispute with any labor unions concerning the wage, hours,
terms or conditions of the employment of any such labor.
6.5 All alterations, additions or improvements proposed by Tenant shall be
constructed in accordance with all government laws, ordinances, rules and
regulations and Tenant shall, prior to construction, provide the additional
insurance required under Article 11 in such case, and also all such assurances
to Landlord, including but not limited to, waivers of lien, surety company
performance bonds and personal guaranties of individuals of substance as
Landlord shall reasonably require to assure payment of the costs thereof and to
protect Landlord and the Building and appurtenant land against any loss from any
mechanic's, materialmen's or other liens. Tenant shall pay in addition to any
sums due pursuant to Article 4, any increase in real estate taxes attributable
to any such alteration, addition or improvement for so long, during the Term, as
such increase is ascertainable. If there shall be any dispute as to whether any
increase shall be attributable to Tenant's improvements, the burden shall be on
Landlord to establish the same and the matter shall be submitted to a third
party expert in municipal tax assessment for final and binding arbitration. At
Landlord's election said sums shall be paid in the same way as sums due under
Article 4.
6.6 All alterations, additions, and improvements in, on, or to the
Premises made or installed by Tenant, including carpeting, shall be and remain
the property of Tenant during the Term but, excepting furniture, furnishings,
movable racks and partitions of less than full height
9
from floor to ceiling and other trade fixtures, shall become a part of the
realty and belong to Landlord without compensation to Tenant upon the expiration
or sooner termination of the Term, at which time title shall pass to Landlord
under this Lease as by a xxxx of sale, unless Landlord elects otherwise. Upon
such election by Landlord and provided Landlord informs Tenant of such election
at the time Tenant requests approval of any alterations, Tenant shall, at
Tenant's sole cost and expense, forthwith and with all due diligence remove any
such alterations, additions or improvements which are designated by Landlord to
be removed prior to such alterations being made, and Tenant shall forthwith and
with all due diligence, at its sole cost and expense, repair and restore the
Premises to their original condition, reasonable wear and tear and damage by
fire or other casualty and repairs that are the responsibility of the landlord,
excepted.
7. REPAIR.
7.1 Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, remodel, improve, repair,
decorate or paint the Premises, except as may be specified in Exhibit B attached

maintain the common areas and the exterior and structural portions of the
Building, including without limitation, the roof, walls, foundation, exterior
paint, exterior glass, floors (other than carpeting), the parking areas and
Building Systems including without limitation, plumbing, electrical (excluding
equipment in Tenant's freezer and refrigeration areas and HVAC throughout the
Premises which shall be Tenant's sole responsibility), utility and sewer lines
and sprinkler systems, except for damage caused or repairs required as a result
of the acts or omissions of Tenant or Tenant's agents, employees, contractors or
invitees. Landlord's costs of repair and maintenance of any of the foregoing
(but not replacement costs) shall be included in Tenant's Proportionate Share of
Operating Expenses. By taking possession of the Premises, Tenant accepts them as
being in good order, condition and repair and in the condition in which Landlord
is obligated to deliver them except for such items for which Tenant shall have
given written notice to Landlord within sixty (60) days after the Delivery Date,
except that with respect to the Building's HVAC system, seasonal items, items
under warranty and latent defects, Tenant shall have up to six (6) months to
notify Landlord of the same. It is hereby understood and agreed that no
representations respecting the condition of the Premises or the Building have
been made by Landlord to Tenant, except as specifically set forth in this Lease.
Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to make any repairs or to perform
any maintenance unless such failure shall persist for an unreasonable time after
written notice of the need of such repairs or maintenance is given to Landlord
by Tenant.
7.2 Tenant shall at its own cost and expense, subject to Landlord's
obligations pursuant to Section 7.1 above, keep and maintain all parts of the
Premises and such portion of the Building and improvements as are within the
exclusive control of Tenant in good condition, promptly making all necessary
repairs and replacements, whether ordinary or extraordinary, with materials and
workmanship of the same character, kind and quality as the original (including,
but not limited to, repair and replacement of all fixtures installed by Tenant,
interior glass, doors, any special office entries, interior walls and finish
work, floor coverings, electrical systems and fixtures, refrigeration units,
dock boards, truck doors, dock bumpers, plumbing work and fixtures, and
performance of regular removal of trash and debris). Tenant, as part of its
obligations hereunder shall keep the Premises in a clean and sanitary condition.
Tenant, upon termination of this Lease in any way, will yield up the Premises to
Landlord in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear, loss by fire or
other casualty and repairs that are the
10
responsibility of Landlord excepted. Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense,
repair any damage to the Premises or the Building resulting from and/or caused
in whole or in part by the negligence or misconduct of Tenant, its agents,
employees, invitees, or any other person entering upon the Premises as a result
of Tenant's business activities or caused by Tenant's default hereunder.
Landlord shall similarly be responsible to Tenant for damage to the Premises
covered by Landlord or its contractors.
7.3 Except as provided in Article 22, there shall be no abatement of rent
and no right of Tenant to terminate this Lease by reason of any injury to or
interference with Tenant's business arising due to the fault of Landlord, from
the making or failure to make any repairs, alterations or improvements in or to
any portion of the Building or the Premises or to fixtures, appurtenances and
equipment in the Building. Except to the extent, if any, prohibited by law,
Tenant waives the right to make repairs at Landlord's expense under any law,
statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.
7.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease,
Landlord shall cause Landlord's Work, and all other work performed by Landlord
pursuant to this Lease to be performed in a good, workmanlike and lien free
manner in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and
Landlord warrants that all such work and all systems and equipment installed by
Landlord in the Building or the Premises shall be in good working condition as
of the Rent Commencement Date.
8. LIENS. Tenant shall keep the Premises, the Building and appurtenant land and
Tenant's leasehold interest in the Premises free from any liens arising out of
any services, work or materials performed, furnished, or contracted for by
Tenant, or obligations incurred by Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not,
within thirty (30) days following the imposition of any such lien, either cause
the same to be released of record or provide Landlord with insurance against the
same issued by a major title insurance company or such other protection against
the same as Landlord shall reasonably accept, Landlord shall have the right to
cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including
payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All such sums paid by Landlord
and all reasonable expenses incurred by it in connection therewith shall be
considered additional rent and shall be payable to it by Tenant within thirty
(30) days of demand.
9. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
9.1 Except as expressly set forth herein, Tenant shall not have the right
to assign or pledge this Lease or to sublet the whole or any part of the
Premises whether voluntarily or by operation of law, or permit the use or
occupancy of the Premises by anyone other than Tenant, and shall not make,
suffer or permit such assignment, subleasing or occupancy, without the prior
written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord agrees not to unreasonably
withhold or delay. Said restrictions shall be binding upon any and all assignees
of this Lease and subtenants of the Premises. In the event Tenant desires to
sublet, or permit such occupancy of, the Premises, or any portion thereof, or
assign this Lease, Tenant shall give written notice thereof to Landlord at least
thirty (30) days prior to the proposed Delivery Date of such subletting or
assignment, which notice shall set forth the name of the proposed subtenant or
assignee, the relevant terms of
11
any sublease or assignment and copies of any financial reports and other
relevant financial reports and other relevant financial information of the
proposed subtenant or assignee.
9.2 In the event that Tenant sells, sublets, assigns or transfers this
Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent an amount equal to fifty
percent (50%) of any Increased Rent (as defined below) when and as such
Increased Rent is received by Tenant. As used in this Section, "Increased Rent"
shall mean the excess of (i) all rent and other consideration attributed to this
Lease which Tenant is entitled to receive by reason of any sale, sublease,
assignment or other transfer of this Lease, over (ii) the Rent, Taxes and
Operating Expense otherwise payable by Tenant under this Lease at such time
after deducting all of Tenant's reasonable costs directly related to such
sublease or assignment. For purposes of the foregoing, any consideration
received by Tenant in form other than cash shall be valued at its fair market
value as determined by Landlord in good faith.
9.3 Notwithstanding any assignment or subletting, permitted or otherwise,
Tenant shall at all times remain directly, primarily and fully responsible and
liable for the payment of the rent specified in this Lease and for compliance
with all of its other obligations under the terms, provisions and covenants of
this Lease. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, if the Premises or any
part of them are then assigned or sublet, Landlord, in addition to any other
remedies provided in this Lease or provided by law, may, at its option, collect
directly from such assignee or subtenant all rents due and becoming due to
Tenant under such assignment or sublease and apply such rent against any sums
due to Landlord from Tenant under this Lease, and no such collection shall be
construed to constitute a novation or release of Tenant from the further
performance of Tenant's obligations under this Lease.
9.4 Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Tenant shall have no right
to make (and Landlord shall have the absolute right to refuse consent to) any
assignment of this Lease or sublease of any portion of the Premises if at the
time of either Tenant's notice of the proposed assignment or sublease or the
proposed Delivery Date thereof, there shall exist any uncured Event of Default
of Tenant.
9.5 Tenant will pay to Landlord a sum equal to all of Landlord's
reasonable third party costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred in
investigating and considering any proposed or purported assignment or pledge of
this Lease or sublease of any of the Premises, regardless of whether Landlord
shall consent to, refuse consent, or determine that Landlord's consent is not
required for, such assignment, pledge or sublease. Any purported sale,
assignment, mortgage, transfer of this Lease or subletting which does not comply
with the provisions of this Article 9 shall be void.
9.6 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9, Tenant
may, without Landlord's consent, assign this Lease or sublet any portion or all
of the Premises to any corporation, partnership, trust, association or other
business organization directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by Tenant
or to any successor by merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or
substantially all of the assets of Tenant, provided that the surviving entity
shall have a financial statement (balance sheet and income statement) at least
as strong as that of the Tenant at the time of execution of this Lease and shall
assume all of Tenant's obligations under this
12
Lease. As long as Tenant is a public company, the public trading of its stock
shall not constitute an assignment of this Lease.
10. INDEMNIFICATION. None of the Landlord Entities (defined in Section 28 below)
shall be liable and Tenant hereby waives all claims against them for any damage
to any personal property or any injury to any person in or about the Premises or
the Land by or from any cause whatsoever (including without limiting the
foregoing, rain or water leakage of any character from the roof, windows, walls,
basement, pipes, plumbing works or appliances, the Building not being in good
condition or repair, gas, fire, oil, electricity or theft), except to the extent
caused by or arising from the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or
its agents, employees or contractors for which Landlord agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless Tenant. Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold the Landlord
Entities harmless from and against any and all loss, claims, liability or costs
(including court costs and reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by reason of (a)
any damage to any property (including but not limited to property of any
Landlord Entity) or any injury (including but not limited to death) to any
person occurring in, on or about the Premises or the Land to the extent that
such injury or damage shall be caused by or arise from any negligence by or of
Tenant, its agents, servants, employees, invitees, or visitors to meet any
standards imposed by any duty with respect to the injury or damage; (b) the
conduct or management of any work or thing whatsoever done by the Tenant in or
about the Premises or from transactions of the Tenant concerning the Premises;
(c) Tenant's failure to comply with any and all governmental laws, ordinances
and regulations applicable to the condition or use of the Premises or its
occupancy to the extent required in this Lease; or (d) any breach or default on
the part of Tenant in the performance of any covenant or agreement on the part
of the Tenant to be performed pursuant to this Lease. The provisions of this
Article shall survive the termination of this Lease with respect to any claims
or liability accruing prior to such termination.
Landlord will, in all events, indemnify and save Tenant harmless from and
against any and all claims, actions, damages, liability and expense in
connection with the loss of life, personal injury and/or damage to property
arising from or out of any occurrence in, upon or at the common areas or the
occupancy or use of same, or any part thereof, by Landlord and its respective
agents, employees or contractors, without limitation, with the exception of
those matters which stem directly from Tenant's negligence, omissions or
intentional acts. In the event Tenant shall, with no fault on its part, be made
a party to any litigation commenced by or against Landlord arising from any such
action for which Landlord shall be responsible to indemnify Tenant, then
Landlord shall protect and hold Tenant harmless and pay all costs, expenses and
reasonable attorney's fees in connection with such litigation with attorneys
selected by Landlord, subject to Tenant's reasonable approval.

arising in connection with such Work, without limitation including liability
under any applicable structural work act, and such other insurance as Landlord

must be delivered to Landlord prior to the commencement of any such Work.
11.4 Landlord represents that it currently maintain and shall maintain
throughout the Term (a) all risk of physical loss coverage for the full
replacement cost of the Building and (b) general liability insurance coverage

reasonably prudent owners of properties similar to the Building in the Boston
metropolitan area.
12. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to
the contrary, so long as their respective insurers so permit, Tenant and
Landlord hereby mutually waive their respective rights of recovery against each
other for any loss insured by fire, extended coverage, All Risks or other

and to exercise commercial diligence in repairing, replacing or restoring any
interruption in service or utilities.

14. HOLDING OVER. Tenant shall pay Landlord for each day Tenant retains
possession of the Premises or part of them after termination of this Lease by
lapse of time or otherwise at the rate ("Holdover Rate") which shall be the
greater of (a) 130% for the first month and 150% thereafter of the amount of the
Annual Rent for the last period prior to the date of such termination plus 100%
of all Additional Rent under Article 4; or (b) the then market rental value of
the Premises as reasonably determined by Landlord assuming a new lease of the
Premises of the then usual duration and other terms, in either case prorated on

have been created. In any event, no provision of this Article 14 shall be deemed

law.
15. SUBORDINATION. Without the necessity of any additional document being
executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, this Lease
shall be subject and subordinate at all times to ground or underlying leases and
to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust now or hereafter placed on,
against or affecting the Land, the Building, Landlord's interest or estate in
the Building, or any ground or underlying lease; provided, however, that if the
lessor, mortgagee, trustee, or holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust
elects to have Tenant's interest in this Lease be superior to any such
instrument, then, by notice to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed superior,
whether this Lease was executed before or after said instrument. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver within ten
(10) days after request by Landlord, such further instruments evidencing such
subordination or superiority of this Lease as may be required by Landlord,
including but not limited to the Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment
Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, which Tenant acknowledges to
be reasonable, or in such other form as Landlord's lender may require. Landlord

the rules and regulations as set forth in Exhibit E to this Lease and all
reasonable modifications of and additions to them from time to time put into

Building, and may for that purpose erect, use and maintain scaffolding,
15
pipes, conduits and other necessary structures and open any wall, ceiling or

17.2 Landlord shall have the right at any time to change the arrangement

the Premises or inconvenience Tenant, and to change the name, number or
designation by which the Building is commonly known. In the event that Landlord
damages any portion of any wall or wall covering, ceiling, or floor or floor
covering within the Premises, Landlord shall repair or replace the damaged

damage occurring in doing so shall be borne by Tenant and paid to Landlord as

alternatively:
19.1.1 Landlord may, at its election, terminate this Lease or
terminate Tenant's right to possession only, without terminating the Lease.

minus the fair rental value of the
17
Premises for such residue; (b) the amount of rent loss and expense incurred
necessary to obtain a replacement tenant or tenants, and the estimated expenses
described in Section 19.1.4 relating to recovery of the Premises, preparation
for reletting and for reletting itself and (c) the cost of performing any other
covenants which would have otherwise been performed by Tenant. Landlord agrees
to use commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises after any default
by Tenant.
19.1.4 Upon any termination of Tenant's right to possession only
without termination of the Lease:
19.1.4.1 Neither such termination of Tenant's right to
possession nor Landlord's taking and holding possession thereof as provided in
Section 19.1.2 shall terminate the Lease or release Tenant, in whole or in part,
from any obligation, including Tenant's obligation to pay the rent, including
any amounts treated as additional rent, under this Lease for the full Term, and
if Landlord so elects Tenant shall pay forthwith to Landlord the sum equal to
the entire amount of the rent, including any amounts treated as additional rent
under this Lease, for the remainder of the Term plus any other sums provided in
this Lease to be paid by Tenant for the remainder of the Term.
19.1.4.2 Landlord may, but need not, relet the Premises or any
part thereof for such rent and upon such terms as Landlord, in its sole
discretion, shall determine (including the right to relet the premises for a
greater or lesser term than that remaining under this Lease, the right to relet
the Premises as a part of a larger area, and the right to change the character
or use made of the Premises). In connection with or in preparation for any
reletting, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, make repairs, alterations
and additions in or to the Premises and redecorate the same to the extent
Landlord deems necessary or desirable, and Tenant shall, upon demand, pay the
cost thereof, together with Landlord's expenses of reletting, including, without
limitation, any commission incurred by Landlord. Landlord shall not be required
to observe any instruction given by Tenant about any reletting or accept any
tenant offered by Tenant unless such offered tenant has a creditworthiness
acceptable to Landlord and leases the entire Premises upon terms and conditions
including a rate of rent (after giving effect to all expenditures by Landlord
for tenant improvements, broker's commissions and other leasing costs) all no
less favorable to Landlord than as called for in this Lease, nor shall Landlord
be required to make or permit any assignment or sublease for more than the
current term or which Landlord would not be required to permit under the
provisions of Article 9.
19.1.4.3 Until such time as Landlord shall elect to terminate
the Lease and shall thereupon be entitled to recover the amounts specified in
such case in Section 19.1.3, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the full
amount of all rent, including any amounts treated as additional rent under this
Lease and other sums reserved in this Lease for the remaining Term, together
with the costs of repairs, alterations, additions, redecorating and Landlord's
expenses of reletting and the collection of the rent accruing therefrom
(including reasonable attorney's fees and broker's commissions), as the same
shall then be due or become due from time to time, less only such consideration
as Landlord may have received from any reletting of the Premises; and Tenant
agrees that Landlord may file suits from time to time to recover any sums
falling due under this Article 19 as they become due. Any proceeds of reletting
by Landlord in excess of the amount then owed by Tenant to Landlord from time to
time shall be
18
credited against Tenant's future obligations under this Lease but shall not
otherwise be refunded to Tenant or inure to Tenant's benefit.
19.2 Landlord may, at Landlord's option, enter into and upon the Premises
if Landlord determines in its sole discretion that Tenant is not acting within a
commercially reasonable time to maintain, repair or replace anything for which
Tenant is responsible under this Lease and correct the same, without being
deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction, or forcible entry and
detainer and without incurring any liability for any damage or interruption of
Tenant's business resulting therefrom.
19.3 If, on account of any breach or default by Tenant or Landlord under
the terms and conditions of this Lease, it shall become necessary or appropriate
for either party to employ with an attorney to enforce or defend any of it's
rights or remedies arising under this Lease, the losing party agrees to pay all
of the prevailing party's reasonable attorney's fees so incurred. Tenant
expressly waives any right to trial by jury.
19.4 Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit
of any of the other remedies provided in this Lease or any other remedies
provided by law (all such remedies being cumulative), nor shall pursuit of any
remedy provided in this Lease constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent due
to Landlord under this Lease or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of
the violation of any of the terms, provisions and covenants contained in this
Lease.
19.5 No act or thing done by Landlord or its agents during the Term shall
be deemed a termination of this Lease or an acceptance of the surrender of the
Premises, and no agreement to terminate this Lease or accept a surrender of said
Premises shall be valid, unless in writing signed by Landlord. No waiver by
Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and
covenants contained in this Lease shall be deemed or construed to constitute a
waiver of any other violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and
covenants contained in this Lease. Landlord's acceptance of the payment of
rental or other payments after the occurrence of an Event of Default shall not
be construed as a waiver of such Default, unless Landlord so notifies Tenant in
writing. Forbearance by Landlord in enforcing one or more of the remedies
provided in this Lease upon an Event of Default shall not be deemed or construed
to constitute a waiver of such Default or of Landlord's right to enforce any
such remedies with respect to such Default or any subsequent Default.
19.6 Any and all property which may be removed from the Premises by
Landlord pursuant to the authority of this Lease or of law, to which Tenant is
or may be entitled, may be handled, removed and/or stored, as the case may be,
by or at the direction of Landlord but at the risk, cost and expense of Tenant,
and Landlord shall in no event be responsible for the value, preservation or
safekeeping thereof. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon demand, any and all
reasonable expenses incurred in such removal and all storage charges against
such property so long as the same shall be in Landlord's possession or under
Landlord's control. Any such property of Tenant not retaken by Tenant from
storage within thirty (30) days after removal from the Premises and notice to
Tenant shall, at Landlord's option, be deemed conveyed by Tenant to Landlord
under this Lease as by a xxxx of sale without further payment or credit by
Landlord to Tenant.
19
19.7 In the event that Landlord shall at any time be in default in the
observance or performance of any of the covenants and agreements required to be
performed and observed by Landlord hereunder and any such default shall continue
for a period of thirty (30) calendar days after written notice to Landlord (or
if such default is incapable of being cured in a reasonable manner within thirty
(30) calendar days then if Landlord has not commenced to cure the same within
said thirty (30) calendar day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the
same to completion) and Landlord shall not thereafter cure such default, Tenant
shall be entitled at its election, to bring suit for the collection of any
amounts for which Landlord may be in default, or for' the performance of any
other covenant or agreement devolving upon Landlord, in addition to all remedies
otherwise provided in this Lease and otherwise available in law or equity under
the laws of the United States or the State or Commonwealth in which the Premises
are located, and after any judgment may be obtained by Tenant, Tenant may offset
the amount of any such judgment against rent due under this Lease.
In addition to all of Tenant's other remedies hereunder, if Landlord
defaults in the performance of any obligation imposed on it by this Lease and
does not cure such default within twenty (20) days after written notice from
Tenant specifying the default (or does not within said period commence and
diligently proceed to cure such default), Tenant, without waiver of or prejudice
to any other right or remedy it may have, shall have the right, at any time
thereafter, to cure such default for the account of the Landlord, and Landlord
shall reimburse Tenant upon invoice for any amount paid and any expense or
contractual liability so incurred. If Landlord fails to reimburse Tenant, then
Tenant shall have the right to offset the amount due thereunder, together with
interest at the Default Rate (as defined in Section 14.3 herein below) from the
date of disbursement, against all rent and other charges due from Tenant to
Landlord under this Lease until Tenant has been completely reimbursed for its
expenses; provided, however, Tenant shall have no right to offset any amounts
due from Landlord until ten (10) days after Tenant shall have obtained a final
judgment from a court of competent jurisdiction indicating the amount due from
Landlord to Tenant hereunder. In the event of emergencies, or where necessary to
prevent injury to persons or damage to property or to mitigate damages, Tenant
may cure a default by Landlord before the expiration of the waiting period, but
after giving such written or oral notice to Landlord as is practical under all
of the circumstances.
20. TENANT'S BANKRUPTCY OR INSOLVENCY.
20.1 If at any time and for so long as Tenant shall be subjected to the
provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or other law of the United
States or any state thereof for the protection of debtors as in effect at such
time (each a "Debtor's Law"):
20.1.1 Tenant, Tenant as debtor-in-possession, and any trustee or
receiver of Tenant's assets (each a "Tenant's Representative") shall have no
greater right to assume or assign this Lease or any interest in this Lease, or
to sublease any of the Premises than accorded to Tenant in Article 9, except to
the extent Landlord shall be required to permit such assumption, assignment or
sublease by the provisions of such Debtor's Law. Without limitation of the
generality of the foregoing, any right of any Tenant's Representative to assume
or assign this Lease or to sublease any of the Premises shall be subject to the
conditions that:
20
20.1.1.1 Such Debtor's Law shall provide to Tenant's
Representative a right of assumption of this Lease which Tenant's Representative
shall have timely `exercised and Tenant's Representative shall have fully cured
any default of Tenant under this Lease.
20.1.1.2 Tenant's Representative or the proposed assignee, as
the case shall be, shall have deposited with Landlord as security for the timely
payment of rent an amount equal to the larger of: (a) three months' rent and
other monetary charges accruing under this Lease; and (b) any sum specified in
Article 5; and shall have provided Landlord with adequate other assurance of the
future performance of the obligations of the Tenant under this Lease. Without
limitation, such assurances shall include, at least, in the case of assumption
of this Lease, demonstration to the satisfaction of the Landlord that Tenant's
Representative has and will continue to have sufficient unencumbered assets
after the payment of all secured obligations and administrative expenses to
assure Landlord that Tenant's Representative will have sufficient funds to
fulfill the obligations of Tenant under this Lease; and, in the case of
assignment, submission of current financial statements of the proposed assignee,
audited by an independent certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to
Landlord and showing a net worth and working capital in amounts determined by
Landlord to be sufficient to assure the future performance by such assignee of
all of the Tenant's obligations under this Lease.
20.1.1.3 The assumption or any contemplated assignment of this
Lease or subleasing any part of the Premises, as shall be the case, will not
breach any provision in any other lease, mortgage, financing agreement or other
agreement by which Landlord is bound.
20.1.1.4 Landlord shall have, or would have had absent the
Debtor's Law, no right under Article 9 to refuse consent to the proposed
assignment or sublease by reason of the identity or nature of the proposed
assignee or sublessee or the proposed use of the Premises concerned.
21. QUIET ENJOYMENT. Landlord represents and warrants that it has full right and
authority to enter into this Lease and that Tenant, while paying the rental and
performing its other covenants and agreements contained in this Lease, shall
peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term without
hindrance or molestation from Landlord subject to the terms and provisions of
this Lease. Landlord shall not be liable for any interference or disturbance by
other tenants or third persons, nor shall Tenant be released from any of the
obligations of this Lease because of such interference or disturbance.
22. DAMAGE BY FIRE, ETC.
22.1 In the event the Premises or the Building are damaged by fire or
other cause and in Landlord's reasonable estimation such damage can be
materially restored within 180 days, Landlord shall forthwith repair the same
and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that Tenant shall
be entitled to a proportionate abatement in rent from the date of such damage.
Such abatement of rent shall be made pro rata in accordance with the extent to
which the damage and the making of such repairs shall interfere with the use and
occupancy by Tenant of the Premises from time to time. Within thirty (30) days
from the date of such damage, Landlord shall notify Tenant, in writing, of
Landlord's reasonable estimation of the length of time within which material
restoration can be made. For purposes of this Lease, the Building or
21
Premises shall be deemed "materially restored" if they are in such condition as
would not prevent or materially interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises for
the purpose for which it was being used immediately before such damage.
22.2 If such repairs cannot, in Landlord's reasonable estimation, be made
within 180 days, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the option of giving the
other, at any time within forty-five (45) days after such damage, notice
terminating this Lease as of the date of such damage. In the event of the giving
of such notice, this Lease shall expire and all interest of the Tenant in the
Premises shall terminate as of the date of such damage as if such date had been
originally fixed in this Lease for the expiration of the Term. In the event that
neither Landlord nor Tenant exercises its option to terminate this Lease, then
Landlord shall repair or restore such damage, this Lease continuing in full
force and effect, and the rent hereunder shall be proportionately abated as
provided in Section 22.1.
22.3 Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any damage or
loss by or from fire or other cause to any panelings, decorations, partitions,
additions, railings, ceilings, floor coverings, office fixtures or any other
property or improvements installed on the Premises or belonging to Tenant. Any
insurance which may be carried by Landlord or Tenant against loss or damage to
the Building or Premises shall be for the sole benefit of the party carrying
such insurance and under its sole control.
22.4 In the event that Landlord should fail to complete such repairs and
material restoration within forty-five (45) days after the date estimated by
Landlord therefor as extended by this Section 22.4, Tenant may at its option and
as its sole remedy terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to
Landlord, within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of said period of time,
whereupon the Lease shall end on the date of such notice or such later date
fixed in such notice as if the date of such notice was the date originally fixed
in this Lease for the expiration of the Term.
22.5 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article:
If material damage to the Premises shall occur during the last twelve months of
the Term and the Term of this Lease shall not have previously been extended by
Tenant as provided in Section 2.4 above, either party may terminate this Lease
by written notice to the other within thirty (30) days after the date of such
damage, whereupon this Lease shall end on the date of such damage as if the date
of such damage were the date originally fixed in this Lease for the expiration
of the Term.
22.6 In the event of any damage or destruction to the Building or Premises
by any peril covered by the provisions of this Article 22, it shall be Tenant's
responsibility to properly secure the Premises and upon notice from Landlord to
remove as soon as reasonably practicable, at its sole cost and expense, such
portion of all of the property belonging to Tenant or its licensees from such
portion or all of the Building or Premises as Landlord shall request.
23. EMINENT DOMAIN. If all or any substantial part of the Premises shall be
taken or appropriated by any public or quasi-public authority under the power of
eminent domain, or conveyance in lieu of such appropriation, either party to
this Lease shall have the right, at its option, of giving the other, at any time
within thirty (30) days after such taking, notice terminating this Lease. If
neither party to this Lease shall so elect to terminate this Lease, the
22
rental thereafter to be paid shall be adjusted on a fair and equitable basis
under the circumstances. In addition to the rights of Landlord above, if any
substantial part of the Building shall be taken or appropriated by any public or
quasi-public authority under the power of eminent domain or conveyance in lieu
thereof, and regardless of whether the Premises or any part thereof are so taken
or appropriated, Landlord shall have the right, at its sole option, to terminate
this Lease. Landlord shall be entitled to any and all income, rent, award, or
any interest whatsoever in or upon any such sum, which may be paid or made in
connection with any such public or quasi-public use or purpose, and Tenant
hereby assigns to Landlord any interest it may have in or claim to all or any
part of such sums, other than any separate award which may be made with respect
to Tenant's trade fixtures and moving expenses. Tenant shall make no claim for
the value of any unexpired Term unless Tenant is able to obtain a separate award
in addition to Landlord's award described above.
24. SALE BY LANDLORD. In event of a sale or conveyance by Landlord of the
Building, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any future liability
upon any of the covenants or conditions, expressed or implied, contained in this
Lease in favor of Tenant, and in such event Tenant agrees to look solely to the
responsibility of the successor in interest of Landlord in and to this Lease
with respect to such future liability. Except as set forth in this Article 24,
this Lease shall not be affected by any such sale and Tenant agrees to attorn to
the purchaser or assignee provided such purchaser or assignee recognizes
Tenant's rights under this Lease. If any security has been given by Tenant to
secure the faithful performance of any of the covenants of this Lease, Landlord
may transfer or deliver said security, as such, to Landlord's successor in
interest and thereupon Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability
with regard to said security.
25. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Within ten (10) days following receipt of any written
request which Landlord may make from time to time, Tenant shall execute and
deliver to Landlord or mortgagee or prospective mortgagee a sworn statement
certifying: (a) the date of commencement of this Lease; (b) the fact that this
Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been
modifications to this Lease, that this lease is in full force and effect, as
modified, and stating the date and nature of such modifications); (c) the date
to which the rent and other sums payable under this Lease have been paid; (d)
Tenant has no knowledge of any current defaults under this Lease by either
Landlord or Tenant except as specified in Tenant's statement; and (e) such other
matters as may be reasonably requested by Landlord. Landlord and Tenant intend
that any statement delivered pursuant to this Article 25 may be relied upon by
any mortgagee, beneficiary or purchaser and Tenant shall be liable for all loss,
cost or expense resulting from the failure of any sale or funding of any loan
caused by any material misstatement contained in such estoppel certificate.
Landlord agrees to provide a similar statement to Tenant within ten (10) days
following receipt of any written request by Tenant.
26. SURRENDER OF PREMISES.
26.1 At the end of the Term or any renewal of the Term or other sooner
termination of this Lease, Tenant will peaceably deliver up to Landlord
possession of the Premises, together with all improvements or additions upon or
belonging to the same, by whomsoever made, in the same conditions received or
first installed, broom clean and free of all debris, excepting only ordinary
wear and tear and damage by fire or other casualty and any repair,
responsibilities of
23
Landlord hereunder. Tenant may, and at Landlord's request shall, at Tenant's
sole cost, remove upon termination of this Lease, any and all furniture,
furnishings, racking systems, movable partitions of less than full height from
floor to ceiling, trade fixtures and other property installed by Tenant, title
to which shall not be in or pass automatically to Landlord upon such
termination, repairing all damage or holes caused by such removal. Property not
so removed shall, unless requested to be removed, be deemed abandoned by the
Tenant and title to the same shall thereupon pass to Landlord under this Lease
as by a xxxx of sale. All other alterations, additions and improvements in, on
or to the Premises shall be dealt with and disposed of as provided in Article 6.
26.2 All obligations of Tenant under this Lease not fully performed as of
the expiration or earlier termination of the Term shall survive the expiration
or earlier termination of the Term. In the event that Tenant's failure to
perform prevents Landlord from releasing the Premises, Tenant shall continue to
pay rent pursuant to the provisions of Article 14 until such performance is
complete.
27. NOTICES. Any notice or document required or permitted to be delivered under
this Lease shall be addressed to the intended recipient, shall be transmitted
personally, by fully prepaid registered or certified United States Mail return
receipt requested, or by reputable independent contract delivery service
furnishing a written record of attempted or actual delivery, and shall be deemed
to be delivered when tendered for delivery to the addressee at its address set
forth on the Reference Page, or at such other address as it has then last
specified by written notice delivered in accordance with this Article 27, or if
to Tenant at either its aforesaid address or its last known registered office or
home of a general partner or individual owner, whether or not actually accepted
or received by the addressee.
28. DEFINED TERMS AND HEADINGS/FORCE MAJEURE. The Article headings shown in this
Lease are for convenience of reference and shall in no way define, increase,
limit or describe the scope or intent of any provision of this Lease. Any
indemnification or insurance of Landlord shall apply to and inure to the benefit
of all the following "Landlord Entities", being Landlord, Landlord's investment
manager, and the trustees, boards of directors, officers, general partners,
beneficiaries, stockholders, employees and agents of each of them. Any option
granted to Landlord shall also include or be exercisable by Landlord's trustee,
beneficiary, agents and employees, as the case may be. In any case where this
Lease is signed by more than one person, the obligations under this Lease shall
be joint and several. The terms "Tenant" and "Landlord" or any pronoun used in
place thereof shall indicate and include the masculine or feminine, the singular
or plural number, individuals, firms or corporations, and each of their
respective successors, executors, administrators and permitted assigns,
according to the context hereof. In any case where either party hereto is
required to do any act, delays caused by or resulting from war, civil commotion,
fire, flood or other casualty, labor difficulties, shortages of labor, materials
or equipment, government regulations, unusually severe weather, or other causes
beyond such party's reasonable control ("force majeure") other than payment
shall not be counted in determining the time during which work shall be
completed, whether such time be designated by a fixed date, a fixed time or "a
reasonable time," and such time shall be deemed to be extended by the period of
such delay providing the party claiming force majeure shall notify the other
party within a reasonable time after such delay shall have occurred.
24
29. TENANT'S AUTHORITY. If Tenant signs as a corporation each of the persons
executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant represents and warrants that Tenant has
been and is qualified to do business in the state in which the Building is
located, that the corporation has full right and authority to enter into this
Lease, and that all persons signing on behalf of the corporation were authorized
to do so by appropriate corporate actions. If Tenant signs as a partnership,
trust or other legal entity, each of the persons executing this Lease on behalf
of Tenant represents and warrants that Tenant has complied with all applicable
laws, rules and governmental regulations relative to its right to do business in
the state and that such entity on behalf of the Tenant was authorized to do so
by any and all appropriate partnership, trust or other actions. Tenant agrees to
furnish promptly upon request a corporate resolution, proof of due authorization
by partners, or other appropriate documentation evidencing the due authorization
of Tenant to enter into this Lease. Landlord represents to Tenant that Landlord
is authorized to execute and deliver this Lease and Landlord agrees to provide
Tenant with evidence of its authority.
30. COMMISSIONS. Each of the parties represents and warrants to the other that
it has not dealt with any broker or finder in connection with this Lease, except
as described on the Reference Page. Landlord shall be responsible to pay any
commission due the Brokers described on the Reference Page in accordance with a
separate agreement with each of the Brokers.
31. TIME AND APPLICABLE LAW. Time is of the essence of this Lease and all of its
provisions. This Lease shall in all respects be governed by the laws of the
state in which the Building is located.
32. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to the provisions of Article 9, the terms,
covenants and conditions contained in this Lease shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns
of the parties to this Lease.
33. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Lease, together with its exhibits, contains all
agreements of the parties to this Lease and supersedes any previous
negotiations. There have been no representations made by the Landlord or
understandings made between the parties other than those set forth in this Lease
and its exhibits. This Lease may not be modified except by a written instrument
duly executed by the parties to this Lease.
34. EXAMINATION NOT OPTION. Submission of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a
reservation of the Premises. Landlord shall not be bound by this Lease until it
has received a copy of this Lease duly executed by Tenant and has delivered to
Tenant a copy of this Lease duly executed by Landlord.
35. RECORDATION. Tenant shall not record or register this Lease, but Landlord
agrees to enter into a notice of lease suitable for recording which Tenant may
register or record and shall pay all charges incident to such recording or
registration.
36. LIMITATION OF LANDLORD'S LIABILITY. Redress for any claim against Landlord
under this Lease shall be limited to and enforceable only against and to the
extent of Landlord's interest in the Building, including any rents, insurance
proceeds, sale or transfer proceeds, condemnation awards or other similar
interests. The obligations of Landlord under this
25
Lease are not intended to and shall not be personally binding on, nor shall any
resort be had to the private properties of, any of its trustees or board of
directors and officers, as the case may be, its investment manager, the general
partners thereof, or any beneficiaries, stockholders, employees, or agents of
Landlord or the investment manager.
37. ACCESS. Access to the Premises shall be available to Tenant 24 hours per
day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year (subject to force majeure).
38. LANDLORD'S COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. If Landlord receives a notice of violation
(other than as a result of the acts or omissions of Tenant or its agents,
employees, or contractors) of any federal, state and local laws, ordinances,
rules and regulations and other governmental requirements with respect to the
Building and Land, other than the interior of the Premises (including but not
limited to the failure of the Building to comply with the Americans with
Disabilities Act and the Massachusetts Architectural Access Board regulations
and/or the Land or the Building to contain hazardous materials), then the work
required to bring the applicable item into compliance will be performed by
Landlord, at its expense (and shall not be passed-through as additional rent).
Landlord represents that as of the Reference Date the Land and Building do not
contain asbestos or asbestos containing materials. Landlord agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless Tenant from and against any claims, liabilities, costs, fines,
damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs at all
tribunal levels) arising from Landlord's failure to comply with the foregoing
requirements and representations.
39. SIGNAGE. Tenant shall have the right, at its cost, to place a sign on the
Building at or adjacent to Tenant's main entrance and a monument sign next to
the entrance to the Premises, subject to compliance with applicable law and the
reasonable approval of Landlord and consistent with the size and layout of signs
of other tenants of the Building and Landlord's building standard. Landlord will
provide a monument sign at the entrance to Bellingham Business Center, and
Tenant will have the right, at its cost, to place its name on that monument in
accordance with uniform building standards provided by Landlord and consistent
with the size of other tenant names upon the monument.

Dear Xxx,
In response to your request, Dacon Corporation has reviewed the latest Project
Design Criteria, dated November 2004 and Project Outline Specifications, dated
December 1, 2004 as prepared by The Xxxxxx Group for the proposed 99
Distribution Center located in Bellingham, Massachusetts. Listed below are items
that conflict with what we have budgeted or that require clarification.
1. Under Project Design Criteria, the main structure is referenced as being
32'-0" clear from finished floor to the bottom of steel. Dacon
Corporation has budgeted a structure that is 30'-0" clear.
2. The building areas referenced in the Project Design Criteria versus PDA's
floor plan I what we have budgeted are as follows:
SPECIFICATION BUDGET
------------- ------
a. Freezer 20,000 SF 18,000 SF
b. Cooler 10,000 SF 7,200 SF
c. Produce Cooler 5,000 SF 3,600 SF
d. Refrigerated dock 5,000 SF 4,800 SF

g. Dock Office Area 1,500 SF 2,250 SF
---------- ---------
TOTAL 78,000 SF 78,000 SF
3. Under General Cold Storage Requirements (Freezer, Cooler, and Dock), the
finish slab thickness is specified as 6" thick. Please note that the
thickness of the slab will need to be verified once racking loads are
determined.
4. The following sections of the Project Outline Specifications are site
specific and thus do not fall under Dacon Corporation's area of
responsibility.
a. Section 02210 - Earthwork and Grading
b. Section 02410 - Sub-drainage System
c. Section 02513 - Bituminous Concrete Paving

d. Section 02515 - Portland Concrete Pavement and Sidewalks
e. Section 02700 - Site Utilities
f. Section 02841 - Exterior Signage
g. Section 02900 - Landscape
5. Section 03310 - Concrete Stabs calls for a reinforced slab on grade. Dacon
Corporation has extensive experience with industrial and warehouse floor
stabs and have assumed a 6" thick unreinforced floor slab, 3500-psi
concrete, with no vapor barrier below the dry goods stab.
6. Section 04220 - Concrete Masonry Unit - There is no CMU block included on
this project.
7. Section 05120 - Structural Steel and Joists calls for a 32'-0' clear
structure. As stated earlier, we have budgeted a 30'-0" clear structure.
8. Section 06400 - Architectural Woodworking calls for a kitchen and driver's
break room. Our budget has accommodations for an employee lunch room in
the main office. A driver's break room could be placed in the back office
area. Dock toilet facilities have been included adjacent to the driver's
break room.
9. Section 07531 -- Single Ply Roof Membrane System states that the roof
system shall comply with local building codes. The base building has a
45-mil thick EPDM roofing system, which meets Massachusetts Building
Energy Code criteria.
10. As a point of clarification, our budget includes six (6) bi-parting,
electric, horizontal sliding cooler/freezer doors. The specifications call
for an alternate for high-speed impactable freezer/cooler doors and
high-speed roll-up doors. We have priced two (2) impactable freezer doors
and four (4) high-speed roll-up doors as part of Alternate No. 2.
11. Section 09400 - Monolithic Resinous Flooring - There is no monolithic
resinous flooring included on this project.
12. Vertical storing style dock levelers have been included as part of

provision of, or consent to the amendment, alteration or waiver of any
provision of the Lease without the prior written consent of Mortgagee.

rent and all other sums due under the Lease directly to Mortgagee, Tenant
shall honor such demand and pay the full amount of its rent and all other
sums due under the Lease directly to Mortgagee, without offset, or as

actually exists under the Mortgage, Security Documents or otherwise in
connection with the Note, and notwithstanding any contrary instructions of
or demands from Landlord.

pursuant to the Lease or otherwise, to purchase the Premises or the

Owner.

uses or rights, renewal options and options to expand, and in the event of

other party for which Mortgagee or any New Owner would be liable.
