-----------------------------
expenses incurred in connection with the Project and its ownership, operation,
management, maintenance, repair, replacement and improvement, including, without
limitation, costs for: services, costs and utilities not otherwise directly
paid or reimbursed by tenants; materials, supplies and equipment; deductibles
under Landlord's insurance policies; wages and payroll, including bonuses, (all
of which, for existing employees, will not increase by more than ten percent
(10%) per annum, cumulative, and, for employees subsequently hired, will not
increase by more than ten percent (10%) per annum, cumulative, over their

licensees, occupants or customers of the Project. All deliveries and pickups

(d) Comply with: Laws and insurance requirements affecting the
Premises, the Project or any use and occupancy thereof by Tenant or its
Affiliates (including, without limitation, making required improvements to the
Premises, except for improvements, if any, that are required solely due to the
particular business activity of another tenant in the Project); and Landlord's
rules and regulations from time to time. Tenant will, at its expense, obtain
and maintain all licenses, approvals and variances necessary to conduct its
business and occupy the Premises, but none of those licenses, permits or
variances will be binding on or in any way affect or restrict Landlord, any
other tenants in the Project or the Project itself.

conform to standards established by Landlord from time to time for the above
signs and lettering and submit for Landlord's prior approval a plan or sketch of
the Tenant's proposed sign or lettering, and provided that Tenant's signs and
lettering so conform, Landlord's consent will not be unreasonably withheld. All
other signs, lettering, awnings, canopies or other decorations require
Landlord's prior approval.

cabinetry, and painting). Landlord's review or approval of Tenant's plans and
specifications is solely for Landlord's benefit and will not be considered a
representation or warranty to Tenant as to safety, adequacy, efficiency,
compliance with Laws or any other matter, or a waiver of any of Tenant's
obligations. Except for items of Tenant's Property, all Alterations will be
deemed Landlord's property and part of the realty, and will be surrendered with
the Premises at the end of this Lease, unless otherwise requested by Landlord.
13.3 Compliance with Laws. Alterations will comply in all respects with
--------------------
this Lease and applicable Laws and insurance requirements. Alterations will be
done in a first-class manner, using first quality materials, and so as not to
interfere in any way with Landlord or any other tenant in the Project, cause
labor disputes, disharmony or delay, or impose any Liabilities on Landlord.
Alterations will be performed only by experienced, licensed and bonded
contractors and subcontractors approved in writing by Landlord, which approval
will not be unreasonably withheld. At Landlord's request, Tenant will cause its
contractors and subcontractors to carry workmen's compensation insurance.
13.4 Liens. Tenant will pay when due all claims for labor, materials and
-----
services claimed to be furnished for Tenant or Tenant's Affiliates or for their
benefit and keep the Premises and the Project free from all liens, security
interests and encumbrances ("Liens"). Tenant will indemnify Landlord for, and
hold Landlord harmless from, all Liens, the removal of all Liens and any related
actions or proceedings, and all Liabilities incurred by Landlord in connection
therewith. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN TO ALL PERSONS FURNISHING LABOR OR MATERIALS
TO TENANT THAT NO MECHANICS', MATERIALMENS' OR OTHER LIENS SOUGHT ON THE
PREMISES WILL IN ANY MANNER AFFECT LANDLORD'S RIGHT, TITLE OR INTEREST.
13.5 Satellite Dish. Subject to the following and the rest of this Article
--------------
and this Lease, Tenant may install a satellite dish no larger than three feet
(3') in diameter in a location specified by Landlord. Tenant will be
responsible for all Liabilities in connection with this satellite dish and
associated equipment, including, without limitation, installation, removal,
operation, maintenance, insurance, taxes and other costs and fees. Tenant also
will be solely responsible for securing all federal, state and local permits in
connection with the installation and operation of this satellite dish prior to
its installation. If this satellite dish is on a roof, Tenant will secure from
the membrane roofing manufacturer certification that the installation of this
satellite dish is compatible with all design requirements and that this
installation will not void the existing roof warranty. This certification must
be delivered to Landlord before installation begins. Tenant also will use only
a manufacturer-authorized roofing contractor for any work that requires the
penetration of the existing membrane roofing system. Upon the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant, at its expense, will remove the
satellite dish and all associated equipment and repair all damage.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Landlord will have no Liabilities in
connection with this satellite dish and associated equipment, and Tenant will
indemnify Landlord for and hold it free and harmless from all Liabilities
arising out of or in connection with this satellite dish.

14. INDEMNITY; SATISFACTION OF REMEDIES.
-----------------------------------
14.1 Indemnification. In addition to any other indemnities in this Lease,
---------------
Tenant will indemnify Landlord for and hold Landlord harmless from Liabilities
arising from or in connection with: acts or omissions of Tenant or its
Affiliates or the conduct of Tenant's business; Tenant's breach of or default
under this Lease; and claims by Tenant's Affiliates or other persons if Landlord
declines to consent to any act, event or document requiring Landlord's consent
under this Lease.
14.2 Damage to Persons or Property. Subject to the rest of this Section
-----------------------------
and the rest of this Lease, Landlord will be liable for damages solely to the
extent caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct in breach of this
Lease, but Landlord will not be liable for any special, indirect, consequential,
punitive or similar damages (including, without limitation, any loss of use or
revenue by Tenant or any other person) under any circumstances, or for any
Liabilities arising from or in connection with: acts or omissions of Tenant, any
other tenants of the Project, any third parties, or their Affiliates, including,
without limitation, burglary, vandalism, theft, or criminal or illegal activity;
explosion, fire, steam, electricity, water, gas, rain, pollution, contamination,
hazardous substances, motor vehicles or any casualties; breakage, leakage,
malfunction, obstruction or other defects in Systems and Equipment, or of any
services or utilities; any work, demolition, maintenance or repairs permitted
under this Lease; any exercise of Landlord's rights under any Laws or under this
Lease, including any entry by Landlord or its Affiliates on the Premises in
accordance with this Lease; or any of the matters described in Section 24.5.
Tenant and Tenant's Affiliates assume the risk of all of these Liabilities and
waive all claims against Landlord in connection therewith. Tenant also waives
any Laws or rights that would permit Tenant to terminate this Lease, perform
repairs or maintenance in lieu of Landlord (or on Landlord's behalf), or offset
or withhold any amounts due because of damage to or destruction of the Premises,
any repairs or maintenance, or for any other reason. Tenant immediately will
notify Landlord of any damage or injury to persons or property and any events
which could be anticipated to give rise to any of the foregoing Liabilities.
This exculpation of Landlord and all of Tenant's waivers in this Lease will
apply to all of Tenant's Affiliates to the greatest extent possible. This
Section 14.2 is not meant to reduce the extent of Landlord's obligations to
repair or rebuild in any particular circumstance as may be required in Section
12.1 and Articles 16 and 17 or to prevent Tenant from exercising termination
rights (if any) specifically granted to Tenant elsewhere in this Lease.
14.3 Satisfaction of Remedies. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease or
------------------------
elsewhere to the contrary: Tenant and its Affiliates will look solely to
Landlord's interest in the Project to satisfy any claims, rights or remedies,
and Landlord and its Affiliates, at every level of ownership and interest, have
no personal or individual liability of any type, whether for breach of this
Lease or otherwise, their assets will not be subject to lien or levy of any
type, nor will they be named individually in any suits, actions or proceedings
of any type.
15. COMMON AREA AND PARKING.
-----------------------
15.1 Common Area. "Common Area" means all areas and improvements within
-----------
the Project, as it now exists or as it exists in the future, not held or
designated for the exclusive use or occupancy of Landlord, Tenant, or other
tenants or prospective tenants. Tenant may use the Common Area on a
nonexclusive basis during this Lease. Landlord reserves all rights in
connection with the Common Area, including, without limitation, the right to
change, relocate, improve or demolish portions, promulgate rules and regulations
for its use, limit the use of any portion of the Common Area by Tenant or its
Affiliates, and place certain portions of the Common Area off limits to Tenant
and its Affiliates, including, without limitation, janitorial, maintenance,
equipment and storage areas, and entrances, loading docks, corridors, elevators
and parking areas. Except during emergencies or necessary maintenance, repair
or construction, Landlord's exercise of these rights will not ever prevent
Tenant from having access to the Premises and a loading dock in each Building in
which a portion of the Premises may be located, either now or in the future, but
will not require Landlord to compensate Tenant in any way, result in any
Liabilities to Landlord, entitle Tenant to xxxxx rent, or reduce Tenant's Lease
obligations.
15.2 Parking. At no additional cost to Tenant (other than Tenant's share
-------
of Taxes and Operating Costs from time to time), Tenant may park three (3)
passenger cars per 1,000 square feet of agreed rentable area in the Premises
from time to time in the areas designated by Landlord from time to time for
Tenant's parking (Tenant's current areas are shown in Exhibit "A"). Of the
parking granted above, at least one of those cars per 1,000 square feet leased
will be permitted to park in an assigned space in the assigned areas (i.e., the
parking areas south of the northern boundary of the Service Road as shown on
Exhibit "A"). If Tenant does not use all of its parking spaces, Landlord may
allow others to use those spaces at no charge, subject to Tenant's right to
reclaim those spaces when needed. As permitted by Section 15.1, Landlord may:
limit access to portions of the parking areas; change signs, lanes and the
direction of traffic within the parking areas; change, eliminate or add parking
spaces or areas devoted to parking; allow free parking or parking with a
validation, valet, sticker or other system; promulgate rules and regulations;
and take any other actions deemed necessary by Landlord.
16. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.
---------------------
16.1 Repairs. Subject to the rest of this Article and the rest of this
-------
Lease, Landlord will repair damage to the Premises caused by casualties insured
against under standard "all risk" casualty policies. However, Landlord is not
obligated to repair damage for which Tenant or its Affiliates are responsible or
for which Landlord has no liability under other provisions of this Lease.
Except as may otherwise be required by then applicable Laws, Landlord will
attempt to restore the damaged portions to their prior condition, but Landlord
is not required to undertake repairs unless insurance proceeds are available,
spend more than the net insurance proceeds it actually receives and is permitted
to retain for any repair or replacement, or repair or replace any damage to
Tenant's Work, Tenant's Property or any Alterations. Landlord will begin
repairs within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the damage, required
building permits or licenses and the insurance proceeds payable on account of
the damage.
16.2 Election to Terminate. Landlord has the option either to repair the
---------------------
casualty damage, or terminate this Lease by delivering written notice within
sixty (60) days after the damage occurs, if: the damage occurs during the last
year of the term; or Tenant is in default; or the repairs would take more than
one hundred twenty (120) days to complete; or the damage was caused primarily by
the intentional act or omission of Tenant or its Affiliates; or more than
twenty-five percent (25%) of the leasable space in the rest of the Building is
damaged.
16.3 Abatement of Rent. If the Premises are damaged so as to be
-----------------
untenantable for more than five (5) consecutive business days and Landlord is
required or elects to repair the damage, base rent and Tenant's share of Taxes
and Landlord's insurance premiums will xxxxx until Landlord has substantially
completed the repairs and given Tenant access to the Premises, or Tenant
reoccupies part of the Premises, whichever is earlier. If Tenant continues
6
to occupy or reoccupies the Premises before substantial completion of these
repairs but cannot occupy substantially all of the Premises because of these
ongoing repairs, base rent and Tenant's share of Taxes and Landlord's insurance
premiums will xxxxx in proportion to the degree to which Tenant's use of the
Premises is impaired, as reasonably determined by Landlord. Base rent and
Tenant's share of Taxes and Landlord's insurance premiums will not be abated if
the acts or omissions of Tenant or its Affiliates render Landlord unable to
collect the rental loss insurance proceeds that otherwise would have been
payable to Landlord. The abatement of base rent and Tenant's share of Taxes and
Landlord's insurance premiums described above is Tenant's sole remedy against
and compensation from Landlord in connection with any damage, destruction or
repairs.
17. CONDEMNATION.
------------
If all or substantially all of the Premises are condemned, taken or
appropriated by any public or quasi-public authority under the power of eminent
domain, police power or otherwise, or if there is a sale in lieu thereof
("Condemned"), this Lease will terminate when title or possession is taken by
the condemning authority or its designee. If:
(a) More than twenty-five percent (25%) of the usable area of the
Premises is Condemned, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease when
title or possession is taken by the condemning authority or its designee by
delivering written notice to the other within fifteen (15) days thereafter.
Landlord also may terminate this Lease as provided above if more than twenty-
five percent (25%) of any of the leasable area of the rest of the Building is
condemned.
(b) Part of the Premises is Condemned and this Lease is not
terminated, Landlord will make the necessary repairs so that, to the extent
reasonably possible, the remaining part of the Premises will be a complete
architectural unit. Otherwise, Landlord's restoration will be conducted as
described in Section 16.1, except that Landlord will not be required to begin
repairs until a reasonable time after it receives any necessary building permits
and substantially all of the proceeds of any awards granted for the
Condemnation. After the date title or possession is taken by the condemning
authority or its designees, base rent and Tenant's share of Taxes and Landlord's
insurance premiums will xxxxx in proportion to the area of the Premises
Condemned.
All proceeds, income, rent, awards and interest in connection with any
Condemnation will belong to Landlord, whether awarded as compensation for
diminution of value to the leasehold improvements, or the unexpired portion of
this Lease, or otherwise. Tenant waives all claims against Landlord and the
condemning authority with respect thereto, but nothing in this Section prevents
Tenant from bringing a separate action against the condemning authority for
moving costs or for lost goodwill (as long as this separate action does not
diminish Landlord's recovery).
18. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
-------------------------
18.1 Landlord's Consent Required. Tenant will not voluntarily,
---------------------------
involuntarily or by operation of any Laws sell, convey, mortgage, subject to a
security interest, license, assign, sublet or otherwise transfer or encumber all
or any part of Tenant's interest in this Lease or the Premises, or allow anyone
other than Tenant's employees to occupy the Premises (singularly or
collectively, "Transfer"), without Landlord's prior written consent in each
instance. Any attempt to do so without this consent will be null and void and a
default.
18.2 Notice. Tenant will notify Landlord in writing at least thirty (30)
------
days before any proposed or pending Transfer and will deliver to Landlord such
information as Landlord may reasonably request in connection with the proposed
or pending Transfer and the proposed Transferee, including, without limitation,
a copy of the proposed Transfer documents, financial statements and other
financial information about and banking references for the proposed Transferee,
and information as to the type of business and business experience of the
proposed Transferee. All of this information must be suitably authenticated.
18.3 Landlord's Right to Terminate. If Tenant notifies Landlord of a
-----------------------------
Transfer, or if Landlord becomes aware of a Transfer, Landlord may: consent;
withhold consent (subject to Sections 18.4 and 18.5 below); or terminate this
Lease on written notice to Tenant if the Transfer is an assignment of the Lease
other than to an Acquiring Entity, or a sublease of all or substantially all of
the Premises. If Tenant proposes a sublease for a term longer than one year
that together with all other Outside Subleases would total more than 25% of the
rentable area of the Premises if made (if the proposed sublease would be an
Outside Sublease), or together with all other Family Subleases would total more
than 75% of the rentable area of the Premises when made (if the proposed
sublease would be a Family Sublease), or together with all other subleases would
total more than one 75% of the rentable area of the Premises if made, Landlord
may terminate the Lease as to the portion of the Premises proposed to be sublet.
If Landlord elects to terminate, this Lease (or this Lease as applicable to the
portion to be sublet as described above) will terminate on the date set forth in
Landlord's termination notice. Nothing in this Section limits Landlord's rights
or remedies if Tenant is in default or if the Transfer does not comply with this
Article.
18.4 Reasonable Consent. Subject to Section 18.5, if Landlord does not
------------------
elect (assuming it is permitted) to terminate this Lease, and if the request for
Transfer is given after the end of the first (1st) Lease Year, Landlord will not
unreasonably withhold its consent to an assignment or subletting (for purposes
of this Article, Landlord may arbitrarily withhold consent to other Transfers).
Tenant agrees that the withholding of Landlord's consent will be deemed
reasonable if Tenant is in default or has failed to comply with the rest of this
Article, or if any of the following conditions are not satisfied:
(a) The proposed assignee or subtenant will use the Premises strictly
in accordance with the terms of this Lease.
(aa) The business of the proposed assignee or subtenant is consistent
with the other uses and the standards of the Project, in Landlord's reasonable
judgment.
(b) The proposed assignee or subtenant is reputable, has a credit
rating reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and otherwise has sufficient
independent financial capabilities to perform all of its obligations under this
Lease or the proposed sublease, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, and within
the two-year period prior to the Transfer has not been subject to a bankruptcy
or reorganization or any proceedings or court-ordered compliance in connection
therewith, or had a receiver managing any of its affairs or assets or been
subject to criminal judgments.
7
(c) Neither the proposed assignee or subtenant nor its Affiliates is
or has been a tenant or occupant or has negotiated for space in the Project or
in other projects in Massachusetts owned by Landlord or a partnership or
corporation affiliated with Landlord or Brickstone Square Realty, Inc. or its
current shareholders or officers (current projects are located in Andover,
Wakefield and Billerica) within the six (6) month period before the delivery of
Tenant's written notice. This Subsection (c) will apply only while Andover
Xxxxx Realty Limited Partnership or an affiliated entity or an entity affiliated
with Brickstone Square Realty, Inc. or its current shareholders or officers owns
the Project or an interest therein.
(d) A proposed sublease will not result in more than three (3)
entities or businesses (other than Family Entities) occupying the Premises in
any one Building, or more than fifteen (15) Family Entities occupying the
Project.
These conditions are not exclusive and Landlord may consider other factors in
determining if it should grant or reasonably withhold its consent.
18.5 (a) Family Transfers. The Transfer of more than forty nine percent
----------------
(49%) Tenant's capital stock or ownership interests to any person or entity or
affiliated persons or entities, whether directly or indirectly or by one or more
transactions (other than by unrelated transactions on a public exchange, such as
the NYSE or NASDAQ), or any dissolution, merger, consolidation or other
reorganization of Tenant, or the Transfer of all or substantially all of
Tenant's assets, will be deemed to be an attempted assignment of this Lease and
subject to all of the terms of this Article 18 (except as specifically noted
below) and the rest of this Lease, and the Transferee or other party will be
deemed to be a prospective assignee. However, an assignment by Tenant to an
Acquiring Entity, or a sublease by Tenant to a Family Entity, will be deemed to
be a permitted assignment or sublease, as applicable, provided that the rest of
this Article 18 is complied with (although Sections 18.4(aa) and (b) will not
apply and Section 18.4(c) will apply only with respect to the Project and other
projects located in Andover, Massachusetts, in each case as long as the purpose
of the transaction was not to avoid those or any other provisions of this
Lease). Tenant agrees that, despite any contrary agreements between Tenant and
a Transferee or other acquiring party, anything else to the contrary, even if
this Lease is not assigned a Transferee or other acquiring party of all or
substantially all of Tenant's other assets will be deemed to have assumed all of
Tenant's Liabilities under this Lease, and Tenant will make such Transferee or
other acquiring party aware of this provision. Sublessees do not have the
right, power, authority to further sub-sublease or otherwise Transfer all or any
portion of or interest in the space they sublease.
(b) A Transferee (which for these purposes shall exclude any sublessee
but shall include any assignee by contract, foreclosure, operation of law or
otherwise) will be deemed to have assumed all of Tenant's obligations and
Liabilities under this Lease (all of which shall be deemed to run with the land)
and will be deemed to be bound by this Lease, and Tenant and the assignee will
indemnify Landlord and hold it harmless from all Liabilities in connection with
the assignment. To confirm the foregoing, a prospective Transferee (other than
a sublessee) will be required to execute and deliver to Landlord an
unconditional written assumption of Tenant's Liabilities under this Lease and
the indemnity described above, and Tenant and the Transferee will be deemed to
be jointly and severally liable for all Liabilities of the tenant under this
Lease and any existing and future amendments thereto (although such a written
assumption shall not be required to establish the full liability of the
Transferee for all of Tenant's Liabilities under this Lease). A sublease will
be deemed to be subject and subordinate to this Lease in all respects. Tenant
and the subtenant will indemnify Landlord and hold it harmless from all
Liabilities in connection with the sublease. The subtenant will acquire no
rights or claims against Landlord or its Affiliates and will not have the right
to enforce any of Tenant's rights and remedies under this Lease against
Landlord. If this Lease is terminated or Landlord rightfully reenters or
repossesses the Premises, Landlord may terminate the sublease, or at its option,
become the sublessor under the sublease and the subtenant will attorn to
Landlord, but Landlord will not be liable for Tenant's acts or omissions,
subject to any existing defenses or offsets against Tenant or bound by any
amendment to the sublease made without Landlord's prior written consent. By
entering into a sublease, Tenant and the sublessee agree that if the sublessee
breaches an obligation under its sublease which would also constitute a default
by Tenant under this Lease if not cured within applicable grace periods, then
Landlord will have all of the rights and remedies against the subtenant that is
also has against Tenant for such a default. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, Landlord will be permitted (by assignment of the cause of action
or otherwise) to join the Tenant in any action or proceeding against subtenant
or to proceed against the subtenant directly in the name of Tenant to enforce
these rights and remedies. Tenant will cooperate with Landlord and execute such
documents as may be reasonably necessary to implement these rights granted to
Landlord. The exercise of these rights and remedies will not constitute an
election of remedies and will not in any way impair Landlord's right to pursue
other or similar rights and remedies directly against Tenant, nor will the grant
or exercise of these rights or remedies result in the subtenant acquiring any
rights or claims against Landlord or its Affiliates.
18.6 No Release of Tenant. Whether or not Landlord consents, no Transfer
--------------------
will release or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay rent and perform
all of Tenant's other obligations under this Lease. The acceptance of rent by
Landlord from any person other than Tenant is not a waiver by Landlord. Consent
to one Transfer will not be deemed to be consent to any subsequent Transfer. If
any Transferee defaults under this Lease, Landlord may proceed directly against
the Transferee and/or against Tenant without proceeding or exhausting its
remedies against the other. After any Transfer, Landlord may consent to
subsequent Transfers of or amendments to this Lease without notifying Tenant or
any other person, without obtaining consent thereto, and without relieving
Tenant of liability under this Lease (as it may be modified), except that
Tenant's aggregate monetary liability under this Lease, as it may be modified,
will not be greater than it would have been under this Lease without the
modification.
18.7 Additional Terms. Tenant will pay Landlord's reasonable attorneys'
----------------
fees and other costs in connection with any request for Landlord's consent to a
Transfer. To be effective all assignments and subleases must always prohibit
any further assignment, subleasing or other Transfer and state that they are
subject and subordinate to the terms of this Lease. Subject to Section 18.5(a),
while Andover Xxxxx Realty Limited Partnership or an affiliated entity or an
entity affiliated with Brickstone Square Realty, Inc. or its current
shareholders or officers owns the Project or an interest therein, Tenant and its
Affiliates will not, directly or indirectly, take an assignment or sublease
from, or otherwise occupy premises leased to, any existing or future tenants (or
their assignees, sublessees or successors) of space in the Project or in other
projects in Massachusetts owned by Landlord or a partnership or corporation
affiliated with Landlord or with Brickstone Square Realty, Inc. or its current
shareholders or officers (current projects are located in Wakefield, Andover,
and Billerica). The surrender of this Lease or its termination will not be a
merger, but Landlord will have the right to terminate all subleases and the
occupancy rights of all Transferees. Tenant will pay to Landlord as additional
rent: fifty percent (50%) of all consideration paid or payable for or by reason
of any assignment of this
8
Lease; and, in the case of a sublease, fifty percent (50%) of the amount by
which the sublease rent and other consideration paid or payable (less the
sublessee's pro-rata payment of real estate taxes and insurance, to the extent
paid or payable) exceeds the base rent for the sublease term (pro rated for the
square footage subleased). At Landlord's option, Landlord may collect all or any
part of this additional rent directly from the payor, and consideration paid or
payable will be defined in its broadest sense.
19. MORTGAGEE PROTECTION.
--------------------
19.1 Subordination and Attornment. This Lease is subordinate to all
----------------------------
Superior Leases and Mortgages (defined in Section 24.4), and Tenant will attorn
to each person or entity that succeeds to Landlord's interest under this Lease.
This Section is self-operative, but if requested to confirm a subordination
and/or attornment, Tenant will execute the standard form subordination and
attornment agreements furnished by the then-current lessor or mortgagee under
any of the Superior Leases and Mortgages (a "Landlord's Mortgagee") within ten
(10) days after request. The subordination and attornment provisions will apply
for the benefit of subsequent Landlord's Mortgagees, provided that they agree
not to disturb Tenant's rights under this Lease if Tenant is not in default, and
at the request of those Landlord's Mortgagees, Tenant will execute their
standard form subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements to
provide for the foregoing within ten (10) days after request. However, if
Landlord or Landlord's Mortgagee elects in writing, this Lease will be superior
to the Superior Leases and Mortgages specified, regardless of the date of
recording, and Tenant will execute an agreement confirming this election on
request. Landlord diligently and in good faith will request that The Bank of
Nova Scotia, the current Landlord's Mortgagee, agree to execute with Tenant the
current non-disturbance, subordination and attornment agreement now in use by
The Bank of Nova Scotia, but notwithstanding anything to the contrary, neither
this Lease nor any of Tenant's obligations or other Liabilities hereunder will
be terminated, waived, excused or otherwise reduced in any way if for any
reason The Bank of Nova Scotia refuses to execute such an agreement or any
similar or other agreement.
19.2 Mortgagee's Liability. The obligations and Liabilities of Landlord,
---------------------
Landlord's Mortgagees or their successors under this Lease will exist only if
and for so long as each of these respective parties owns fee title to the
Project or is the lessee under a ground lease of the Project. Tenant will be
liable to Landlord's Mortgagees or their successors if any of those parties
become the owner of the Project for any base rent paid more than thirty (30)
days in advance. Landlord's Mortgagees and their successors will not be liable
for: (a) acts or omissions of prior owners; (b) the return of any security
deposit not delivered or credited to them (and Landlord agrees to deliver or
credit Tenant's unapplied security deposit to Landlord's Mortgagees if they
succeed to Landlord's interest under this Lease); or (c) amendments to this
Lease made without their consent (if their consent is required under a Superior
Lease or Mortgage).
19.3 Mortgagee's Right to Cure. No act or omission (if any) which
-------------------------
otherwise entitles Tenant under the terms of this Lease to be released from any
Lease obligations or to terminate this Lease will result in such a release or
termination unless Tenant first gives written notice of the act or omission to
Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagees and those parties then fail to correct or
cure the act or omission within ninety (90) days thereafter. Nothing in this
Section or the rest of this Lease obligates Landlord's Mortgagees to correct or
cure any act or omission or is meant to imply that Tenant has the right to
terminate this Lease or be released from its obligations unless that right is
explicitly granted elsewhere in this Lease.
20. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES.
---------------------
Tenant will from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after request by
Landlord, execute and deliver an estoppel certificate in form satisfactory to
Landlord or its designees which will certify (except as may be noted) such
information concerning this Lease or Tenant or it's Affiliates as Landlord or
its designees may request. If Tenant fails to execute and deliver estoppel
certificates as required, Landlord's representations concerning the matters
covered by the estoppel certificate will conclusively be presumed to be correct
and binding on Tenant and its Affiliates.
21. DEFAULT.
-------
The occurrence of one or more of the following events will be a default by
Tenant under this Lease: (a) the abandoning of the Premises; (b) the failure to
pay rent or any other required amount within seven (7) days after written notice
that the payment is due; (c) as provided in Article 23; (cc) the failure to
comply with the terms of Article 25 within five (5) days after written notice;
(d) a Transfer in violation of Article 18; (e) the failure to maintain its
required insurance policies within seven (7) days after written notice; or (f)
the failure to comply with or perform any other obligation, term or condition
for which there is a specified time for compliance or performance set forth in
this Lease within five (5) days after written notice of such failure; if no
time period is specified, it will be a default if this failure continues for
fifteen (15) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant, but if more than
fifteen (15) days are reasonably required to cure, Tenant will not be in default
if Tenant begins to cure within the fifteen (15)-day period and then diligently
completes the cure as soon as possible but within ninety (90) days after the
notice of default is given. Whenever the term "default" is used in this Lease,
it shall mean and refer to a default as described in this Article 21. If Tenant
defaults, until and unless Landlord delivers a notice of termination of this
Lease, that default will not cause Tenant to lose its rights under Rider #1,
Rider #2, Rider #3 or with respect to the Additional Signs under Section 11(e)
unless Landlord subsequently gives another written notice of default to Tenant
(provided that the original default initially required Landlord to send a
written notice as set forth above) and Tenant fails to cure that default within
five (5) business days after that subsequent default. At its option, Landlord
will have the right to withhold in whole or in part payment and/or performance
of any its obligations that are premised on the absence of a default until and
unless such a cure is tendered within that subsequent 5-day period. If Landlord
does deliver a termination notice or Tenant fails to cure within that subsequent
5-day period, Tenant will lose those rights. Nothing in this Article 21 will be
deemed to limit in any way Landlord's rights and remedies hereunder, at law or
in equity in connection with a default.
22. REMEDIES FOR DEFAULT.
--------------------
22.1 General. If Tenant defaults, Landlord may at any time thereafter,
-------
with or without notice or demand, do any or all of the following: (a) give
Tenant written notice stating that the Lease is terminated, effective on the
giving of notice or on a date stated in the notice, as Landlord may elect, in
which event this Lease will terminate without further action; (b) with or
without process of law or notice, and with or without terminating this Lease,
terminate Tenant's right of possession and enter and repossess the Premises
either by force or otherwise, and expel Tenant and Tenant's
9
Affiliates, and remove their property and effects, without being guilty of
trespass; and (c) pursue any other right or remedy now or hereafter available to
Landlord under this Lease or at law or in equity.
22.2 Tenant's Obligations. If any default, termination, reentry or
--------------------
dispossess occurs:
(a) All rent provided for in this Lease will become due and will be
paid to the time of the default, termination, reentry or dispossess, together
with such costs as Landlord may incur for attorneys' fees and costs, inspection,
brokerage fees, putting the Premises in good order, condition and repair and/or
for preparing and improving the Premises for re-letting.
(b) Landlord may, at its sole option, re-let all or any portion of the
Premises on terms satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion, either in its
own name or otherwise, for a term or terms which may, at Landlord's option, be
more or less than the balance of the term of this Lease and pursuant to one or
more leases, and Landlord may grant concessions, tenant allowances and/or free
rent, among other things.
(c) Subject to Section 22.2(e), whether or not the Premises are re-
let, Tenant will pay punctually to Landlord all of the rent and other sums and
perform all of Tenant's obligations for the entire Lease term (assuming the
original expiration date and any exercised options) in the same manner and at
the same time as if this Lease had not been terminated.
(d) If Landlord re-lets the Premises, Tenant will be entitled to a
credit in the net amount of the rent actually received by Landlord from the re-
letting, after deducting all expenses described in Sections 22.2(a) and 22.2(f)
and the costs of collecting the rent. Rent received by Landlord after re-
letting first will be applied against Landlord's expenses as described above
until those expenses are recovered. Until recovery of those expenses, Tenant
will pay as and when due all amounts it is required to pay under this Lease.
Tenant's obligations prior to any re-letting and recovery of expenses will not
be diminished even if the re-letting is for a rent higher than the rent
hereunder. When and if these expenses have been completely recovered, and
subject to the rest of this Section, amounts collected by Landlord from the re-
letting that have not previously been applied will be credited against Tenant's
obligations to the extent arising on or before the date of collection by
Landlord, and otherwise when each payment would fall due under this Lease, and
only the net amount thereof will be payable by Tenant. Amounts received by
Landlord from re-letting for any period will be credited only against
obligations of Tenant allocable to that period or periods prior thereto, and not
against Tenant's obligations accruing after that period, nor will any credit be
given to Tenant for amounts received by Landlord for any period after the
original expiration date of this Lease.
(e) At Landlord's option, in lieu of other damages, Landlord may, by
written notice to Tenant at any time after Tenant's default, elect to recover,
and Tenant will thereupon pay, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to the
excess, if any, of: (i) the total rent and other benefits which would have
accrued to Landlord under this Lease for the remainder of the Lease term
(assuming the original expiration date and any exercised Extension Options) if
the default had not occurred plus all of the expenses described in Sections
22.2(a) and 22.2(f); less (ii) the value of the cash rental to be paid to
Landlord for any lease or leases of the Premises actually executed by Landlord
at the time Landlord exercises its option, subject to Subsection (d) above.
(f) No action of Landlord in connection with any re-letting, or
failure to re-let or collect rent under such re-letting, will operate or be
construed to release or reduce Tenant's Liabilities hereunder. Without limiting
any of the foregoing provisions, and in addition to any other amounts that
Tenant is otherwise obligated to pay, Tenant agrees that Landlord may recover
from Tenant all costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and costs,
incurred by Landlord in enforcing this Lease from and after Tenant's default.
22.3 Redemption. Tenant waives any and all rights of redemption granted by
----------
or under any Laws if Tenant is evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or if
Landlord obtains possession of the Premises by reason of the violation by Tenant
of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease, or otherwise.
22.4 Performance by Landlord. If Tenant defaults or fails to perform any
-----------------------
of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord, without waiving or curing the
default or failure, may, but will not be obligated to, perform Tenant's
obligations for the account and at the expense of Tenant. Notwithstanding
Section 21(i), in the case of an emergency or to prevent damage or injury or
protect health, safety or property, Landlord need not give any notice before
performing Tenant's obligations. Tenant will pay on demand all costs and
expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord's performance of
Tenant's obligations, and Tenant will indemnify Landlord for and hold Landlord
harmless from all Liabilities incurred by Landlord in connection therewith.
22.5 Post-Judgment Interest. The amount of any judgment obtained by
----------------------
Landlord against Tenant in any legal proceeding arising out of Tenant's default
under this Lease will bear interest until paid at the Bank of America announced
prime rate plus two percent (2%), or the maximum rate permitted by law,
whichever is less. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any
Laws, with respect to any damages that are certain or ascertainable by
calculation, interest will accrue from the day that the right to the damages
vests in Landlord, and in the case of any unliquidated claim, interest will
accrue from the day the claim arose.
23. [SEE EXHIBIT "F"]
24. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
------------------
24.1 Holding Over. Tenant will not hold over in the Premises after the end
------------
of the Lease term without the express prior written consent of Landlord. Tenant
will indemnify Landlord for, and hold Landlord harmless from, any and all
Liabilities arising out of or in connection with any holding over, including,
without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant and any loss of
rent suffered by Landlord. If, despite this express agreement, any tenancy is
created by Tenant's holding over, except as specifically set forth in the next
sentence the tenancy will be a tenancy at will terminable immediately at
Landlord's sole option on written notice to Tenant, but otherwise subject to the
terms of this Lease, except that the most recent annual base rent will be
doubled. Nothing in this Article or elsewhere in this Lease permits Tenant to
hold over or in any way limits Landlord's other rights and remedies if Tenant
holds over.
24.2 Entry By Landlord. Landlord and its Affiliates at all times have the
-----------------
right to enter the Premises, and Landlord will retain (or be given by Tenant)
keys to unlock all the doors to or within the Premises, excluding doors to
Tenant's vaults and files. In addition to the foregoing rights, for
approximately thirty (30) days from the date of the mutual execution and
delivery of this Lease, Landlord and NetManage, Inc. (successor to FTP Software,
Inc.) and their
10
respective representatives will have the right to access the Initial Space to
remove therefrom movable equipment, furniture and other personal property
belonging to NetManage, Inc. Landlord and its Affiliates will have the right to
use any means necessary to enter the Premises if Landlord believes there is an
emergency or that entry is necessary to prevent damage or injury or protect
health, safety or property. Such entry to the Premises and the exercise of
Landlord's rights will not, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a default,
a forcible or unlawful entry into or a detainer of the Premises or an eviction
of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof, nor will it subject Landlord
to any Liabilities or entitle Tenant to any compensation, abatement of rent or
other rights and remedies.
24.3 Brokers. Tenant represents and warrants that it has had no dealings
-------
with any agent, broker, finder or other person who is or might be entitled to a
commission or other fee from Landlord in connection with this or any related
transaction except for Tenant's Broker.
24.4 Quiet Enjoyment. So long as Tenant pays all rent and performs its
---------------
other obligations as required, Tenant may quietly enjoy the Premises without
hindrance or molestation by Landlord or any person lawfully claiming through or
under Landlord, subject to the terms of this Lease and the terms of any Superior
Leases and Mortgages, and all other agreements or matters of record or to which
this Lease is subordinate. As used in this Lease, the term "Superior Leases and
Mortgages" means all present and future ground leases, underlying leases,
mortgages, deeds of trust or other encumbrances, and all renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements or extensions thereof and advances
made thereunder, affecting all or any portion of the Premises or the Project.
24.5 Security. Tenant is solely responsible for providing security for the
--------
Premises and Tenant's personnel. Without limiting the generality of this
Article, Tenant agrees that: (a) Landlord may, but will not be required to,
supply security personnel and systems for the Premises, the Common Area or the
rest of the Project and remove or restrain unauthorized persons and prevent
unauthorized acts; (b) Landlord will incur no Liabilities for failing to
provide security personnel or systems or, if provided, for acts, omissions or
malfunctions of the security personnel or systems; and (c) Landlord and its
Affiliates make no representations or warranties of any kind in connection with
the security or safety of the Premises, the Common Area or the rest of the
Project.
24.6 Obligations; Successors; Recordation. If Tenant consists of more than
------------------------------------
one person or entity, the obligations and liabilities of those persons or
entities are joint and several. Time is of the essence of this Lease. Subject
to the restrictions in Article 18, this Lease inures to the benefit of and binds
Landlord, Tenant and their respective Affiliates. Tenant will not record this
Lease but Tenant may record a memorandum of this Lease, in form satisfactory to
Landlord, to comply with the Massachusetts statutory notice provisions. If this
Lease expires or is terminated, this memorandum will be deemed null and void and
removed from title, and Tenant will execute and record such documents as may be
necessary to accomplish this at Landlord's request, and if Tenant refuses to do
so, Landlord may execute and record such documents in Tenant's name or in its
own name.
24.7 Late Charges. If any rent or other amounts payable by Tenant are not
------------
received within five (5) days after the due date, Tenant will pay to Landlord on
demand a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount, and if
not received within ten (10) days after the due date, the amounts also will bear
interest from the due date until paid at the interest rate in Section 22.5.
Collection of these late charges and interest will not: be a waiver or cure of
Tenant's default or failure to perform; be deemed to be liquidated damages, an
invalid penalty or an election of remedies; or prevent Landlord from exercising
any other rights and remedies.
24.8 Accord and Satisfaction. Payment by Tenant or acceptance by Landlord
-----------------------
of less than the full amount of rent due is not a waiver, but will be deemed to
be on account of amounts next due, and no endorsements or statements on any
check or any letter accompanying any check or payment will be deemed an accord
and satisfaction or binding on Landlord. Landlord may accept the check or
payment without prejudice to any of Landlord's rights and remedies, including,
without limitation, the right to recover the full amount due.
24.9 Prior Agreements; Amendments; Waiver. This Lease is an integrated
------------------------------------
document and contains all of the agreements of the parties with respect to any
matter covered or mentioned in this Lease, and supersedes all prior agreements
or understandings relating to the subject matter herein. This Lease may not be
amended except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties. All waivers
must be in writing, specify the act or omission waived and be signed by
Landlord. No other alleged waivers will be effective, including, without
limitation, Landlord's acceptance of rent, collection of a late charge or
application of a security deposit. Landlord's waiver of any specific act,
omission, term or condition will not be a waiver of any other or subsequent act,
omission, term or condition.
24.10 Representations; Inability to Perform. Landlord and its Affiliates
-------------------------------------
have not made, and Tenant is not relying on, any representations or warranties
of any kind, express or implied, with respect to the Premises, the Project or
this transaction. Landlord will not be in default nor incur any Liabilities if
it can't fulfill any of its obligations, or is delayed in doing so, because of
accidents, breakage, strike, labor troubles, war, sabotage, governmental
regulations or controls, inability to obtain materials or services, acts of God,
or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar, beyond Landlord's reasonable
control.
24.11 Legal Proceedings. In any action or proceeding involving or
-----------------
relating in any way to this Lease, the court or other person or entity having
jurisdiction in such action or proceeding will award to the party in whose favor
judgment is entered the actual attorneys' fees and costs incurred. Tenant also
will indemnify Landlord for, and hold Landlord harmless from and against, all
Liabilities incurred by Landlord if Landlord becomes or is made a party to any
proceeding or action: (a) involving Tenant and any third party, or by or
against any person holding any interest under or using the Premises by license
of or agreement with Tenant (except and strictly to the extent that Landlord is
finally determined to be a joint tortfeasor with Tenant against such third
party); or (b) necessary to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease in a
proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code. Unless prohibited by law, Tenant waives
the right to trial by jury in all actions involving or related to this Lease,
the Project or any collateral or subsequent agreements between the parties, and
any right to impose a counterclaim in any proceeding brought for possession of
the Premises as a result of Tenant's default. Tenant also submits to and agrees
not to contest the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal
courts located in Massachusetts to adjudicate all matters in connection with
this Lease or involving Landlord or Landlord's Affiliates in any way, and Tenant
agrees that it will bring all suits and actions only in such Massachusetts
courts and not to seek a change of venue. Service on any one or more of the
individuals comprising Tenant will conclusively be deemed service on all of
those individuals. In any circumstance where Tenant is obligated to indemnify
or hold harmless Landlord under this Lease, that obligation also will run in
favor of Landlord's Affiliates, and will include the obligation to protect
Landlord and its Affiliates, and defend them with counsel acceptable to
Landlord, and Tenant
11
will pay when due all attorneys' fees and costs. These obligations to indemnify,
hold harmless, protect and defend will survive the expiration or termination of
this Lease.
24.12 Ownership; Invalidity; Remedies; Choice of Law. As used in this
----------------------------------------------
Lease, the term "Landlord" means only the current owner or owners of the fee
title to the Premises. Upon each conveyance (whether voluntary or involuntary)
of fee title, the conveying party will be relieved of all Liabilities and
obligations contained in or derived from this Lease or arising out of any act,
occurrence or omission occurring after the date of such conveyance. Landlord
may Transfer all or any portion of its interests in this Lease, the Premises, or
the Project without affecting Tenant's obligations and Liabilities under this
Lease. Tenant has no right, title or interest in the name of the Building or
the Project, and may use these names only to identify its location. Any
provision of this Lease which is invalid, void or illegal will not affect,
impair or invalidate any of the other provisions and the other provisions will
remain in full force and effect. Landlord's rights and remedies are cumulative
and not exclusive. This Lease is governed by the laws of Massachusetts
applicable to transactions to be performed wholly therein.
24.13 Expense; Consent. Unless otherwise provided in this Lease, a
----------------
party's obligation will be performed at that party's sole cost and expense,
except when Landlord is performing Tenant's obligations because of Tenant's
default or failure to perform or as otherwise permitted in this Lease. Except
where it is expressly provided that Landlord will not unreasonably withhold its
consent or approval or exercise its judgment reasonably, Landlord may grant or
withhold its consent or approval and exercise its judgment arbitrarily and in
its sole and absolute discretion and without dispute by Tenant. In any dispute
involving Landlord's withholding of consent or exercise of judgement, the sole
right and remedy of Tenant and its Affiliates is declaratory relief (i.e., that
such consent should be granted where Landlord has agreed not to unreasonably
withhold its consent) pursuant to arbitration in Massachusetts conducted by the
American Arbitration Association utilizing its expedited arbitration procedures,
and Tenant and its Affiliates waive all other rights and remedies, including,
without limitation, claims for damages.
24.14 Presumptions; Exhibits; Submission; Net Lease. This Lease will be
---------------------------------------------
construed without regard to any presumption or other rule requiring construction
or interpretation against the party drafting the document. The titles to the
Articles and Sections of this Lease are not a part of this Lease and will have
no effect on its construction or interpretation. Whenever required by the
context of this Lease, the singular includes the plural and the plural includes
the singular, and the masculine, feminine and neuter genders each include the
others, and the word "person" includes individuals, corporations, partnerships
or other entities. All exhibits and riders attached to this Lease are
incorporated in this Lease by this reference, and if there is any conflict with
the rest of this Lease, the riders will control. The submission of this Lease
to Tenant or its broker, agent or attorney for review or signature is not an
offer to Tenant to lease the Premises or the grant of an option to lease to
Premises. This Lease will not be binding unless and until it is executed and
delivered by both Landlord and Tenant. This Lease is intended to be a
completely "triple net" lease, unless specifically otherwise provided in this
Lease.
24.15 Cooperation. Tenant will, at its expense, cooperate with Landlord
-----------
in all respects in connection with this Lease, Landlord's ownership, operation,
management, improvement, maintenance and repair of the Premises and the rest of
the Project, and Landlord's exercise of its rights and obligations under this
Lease. If necessary, this cooperation will include, without limitation, moving
machinery and equipment within the Premises and allowing Landlord sufficient
space within the Premises to enable Landlord to perform any work that Landlord
has the right or is required to perform under this Lease.
24.16 Notices. All notices, demands or communications required or
-------
permitted under this Lease (the "Notices") will be in writing and personally (by
hand or recognized overnight courier) or electronically delivered, or sent by
certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Notices to Tenant
will be delivered to the address for Tenant in Section 1.1. Notices to Landlord
will be delivered to the addresses for Landlord in Section 1.1. Notices will be
effective on the earlier of: delivery; or, if mailed, three (3) days after they
are mailed in accordance with this Section.
24.17 Security Deposit. On the execution of this Lease, Tenant will
----------------
deposit the Security Deposit with Landlord as security for the performance of
Tenant's obligations, and will increase the amount of the Security Deposit as
described in Section 1.1(g). If Tenant fails to perform its Lease obligations
as required, Landlord may, but will not be obligated to, apply all or any part
of the Security Deposit for the payment of any amounts due or any other
Liabilities which Landlord may incur. If any part of the Security Deposit is so
applied, Tenant will, within five (5) days after written demand, deposit cash
with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its
previous amount. Landlord need not keep the Security Deposit separate from its
general funds, and Tenant will receive interest on the unapplied Security
Deposit at a rate per annum equal to the rate payable from time to time by the
Bank of America at its main San Xxxxxxxxx xxxxxx on passbook savings accounts,
payable at the end of each Lease Year. If Tenant complies with all of the
provisions of this Lease, the unused portion of the Security Deposit will be
returned to Tenant after the end of this Lease and the surrender of possession
of the Premises to Landlord in the condition required.

Landlord.

delivered to Tenant; and to remove any hazardous substances that exist in such
space in more than de minimis amounts when that space is delivered to Tenant if
and to the extent that removal then is required under applicable Laws in force
at that time. Unless Tenant occupies that particular space to conduct business
earlier, Tenant will not be obligated to pay rent for that space until such work
is substantially completed or paid for by Landlord. Tenant will notify Landlord
promptly if it becomes aware that any of such work is required.
25. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES.

Without limiting the generality of any portion of this Lease, Tenant and
its Affiliates will:
(a) Not store, handle, transport, use, process, generate, discharge or

Premises or the rest of the Project or create any release or threat of release
of any hazardous substances (except for small quantities of cleaning and office

or if Landlord in good faith believes that any of the foregoing have occurred or
are likely to occur or that Tenant and its Affiliates are not complying fully
with the requirements of this Article, in addition to any other rights and
remedies of Landlord, Tenant and its Affiliates immediately will cease the acts
or omissions and in addition to any other rights and remedies (all of which are
cumulative), at Landlord's request Tenant will take such actions as may be
required by Laws and as Landlord may direct to cure or prevent the problem.
Tenant and its Affiliates will comply fully with all Laws and insurance
requirements in connection with or related to hazardous substances, whether now

compliance with any applicable Laws and insurance requirements; any

(c) Immediately deliver to Landlord copies of any notices,
information, reports, and communications of any type received or given in
connection with hazardous substances, including, without limitation, notices of
violation and settlement actions from or with governmental or quasi-governmental

any analyses conducted by or for Tenant. Tenant specifically grants Landlord
the right to participate in all discussions and meetings regarding actual or
potential violations, settlements or abatements.
13

material default under this Lease. All of Tenant's obligations under this
Article will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

WORKLETTER
All construction, materials, services, licenses, approvals, costs, installations
and equipment to or for the Premises for Tenant's initial occupancy (other than

"Tenant's Work," and will be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost, in
accordance with applicable Laws and in a good and workmanlike manner and subject
to the rest of the terms of this Lease. Tenant accepts the Initial Space "as
is," and will accept the rest of the Premises "as is" subject only to Section

Liabilities in connection with Tenant's Work. Tenant will cause its contractors
and subcontractors to carry commercial general liability insurance with the same
attributes as those set forth in Section 8.1(a)(i), each in the amount of at

the Project or may be ejected therefrom. In case of invasion, riot, public
excitement or other commotion the Landlord may prevent all access to the Project
or the Building during the continuance of the same, by closing the doors or

Laws, Landlord will make a good faith effort to keep them confidential and not
disclose them except to its current or prospective lenders, investors, partners,
or purchasers, or its or their respective partners, employees, officers,
representatives, accountants, or attorneys, and it will instruct such parties to
keep such financial statements confidential to the same extent.

TENANT INDUCEMENT; RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER
26. TENANT INDUCEMENT.
-----------------
Provided that Tenant is not in default (and has not committed acts or
omissions which would constitute a default with the passage of time or the
giving of notice or both), Landlord shall pay to Tenant (or at Landlord's
option, credit against rent owed by Tenant) the following amounts as inducements
to Tenant: (a) Seven Dollars and Fifty Cents ($7.50) per square foot of agreed
rentable area, plus Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00), for the
Initial Space; (b) Twenty Five Dollars ($25.00) per square foot of agreed
rentable area for the Additional Space; (c) Twenty Dollars ($20.00) per square
foot of agreed rentable area for any Expansion Space leased pursuant to this
Lease (except for any space described in Subsections (e) and (f) below); (d) an
amount equal to Two Dollars ($2.00) per square foot of agreed rentable area
multiplied by the number of years in the initial Lease term of that Offer Space
(up to a maximum of $20.00 per square foot of agreed rentable area) for any
Offer Space leased pursuant to this Lease (except for any space described in
Subsections (e) and (f) below); (e) for the space currently leased by Andover
Controls Corporation on the 2/nd/, 3/rd/ and 4/th/ Floors of Building 300,
Thirty One Dollars ($31.00) per square foot of agreed rentable area to the
extent that any portion of such space is leased by Tenant as Expansion Space,
and Three Dollars and Ten Cents ($3.10) per square foot of agreed rentable area
multiplied by the number of years in the initial Lease term of that Offer Space
(up to a maximum of Thirty One Dollars ($31.00) per square foot of agreed
rentable area) to the extent that any portion of such space is leased by Tenant
as Offer Space; and (f) for the space currently leased by Germanium Power
Devices Corporation on the 7/th/ Floor of Building 300, Thirty Five Dollars
($35.00) per square foot of agreed rentable area to the extent that any portion
of such space is leased by Tenant as Expansion Space, and Three Dollars and
Fifty Cents ($3.50) per square foot of agreed rentable area multiplied by the
number of years in the initial Lease term of that Offer Space (up to a maximum
of Thirty Five Dollars ($35.00) per square foot of agreed rentable area) to the
extent that any portion of such space is leased by Tenant as Offer Space. These
inducement payments will be payable within thirty (30) days after Tenant pays
its first month's rent for that particular space and confirms in writing to
Landlord that it unconditionally accepts that space and that the Rent
Commencement Date has occurred for that space.
27. RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER.
--------------------
"Offer Space" means the unleased space in the Project held for lease by
Landlord. For the period starting June 1, 2001 and ending on March 31, 2004
(the "Offer Period"), Tenant will have the right to lease the Offer Space on the
following terms and conditions:
(a) Subject to the foregoing and the rest of this Article, before
leasing any part of the Offer Space that exceeds 10,000 square feet of rentable
area in each particular instance during the Offer Period, Landlord will notify
Tenant in writing of the rentable area and location of that part of the Offer
Space being offered for Lease. If Tenant wishes to exercise its right to lease
that space, it must deliver an unconditional written notice of exercise to
Landlord within twenty (20) days after receipt of Landlord's notice. Tenant may
not lease less than the entire space offered. Unless otherwise agreed by
Landlord and Tenant, the rentable area of each portion of the Offer Space (and
any Expansion Space) will be determined by Landlord's architect's measurement of
the area, determined by measuring from interior face of glass to interior of
face of glass without deductions, plus a pro rata share of the Common Areas
within the Building (and if the Offer Space or Expansion Space is within
Buildings 100 or 200, the Common Area will include a pro rata share of any
shared space between Buildings 100 and 200). Time is of the essence, and if
Tenant does not exercise its rights as described above, its rights to lease that
portion of the Offer Space (as increased or decreased by up to 20% of the
useable area of that space) will lapse and become null and void.
(b) Subject to the rest of this Article, if Tenant exercises its
rights as described above, when Landlord tenders vacant possession of that
portion of the Offer Space to Tenant it will become part of the Premises and the
rentable area of the Premises will be increased by the rentable area of that
portion. The Rent Commencement Date for that Offer Space will occur sixty (60)
days thereafter.
(c) These rights are personal to the Tenant originally named in this
Lease and may not be exercised by or for any other Transferee or other person or
entity (except for an Acquiring Entity). Whether or not these rights have been
exercised, these rights will lapse and Tenant will have no rights in connection
with any Offer Space if, before vacant possession of any Offer Space is tendered
to Tenant, Tenant defaults, or Transfers all or part of this Lease or the
Premises (except for Outside Subleases that all together aggregate less than
25% of the rentable area of the Premises when made, or Family Subleases that all
together aggregate less than 75% of the rentable area of the Premises when made,
or subleases of any type that all together aggregate less than 75% of the
rentable area of the Premises when made). Tenant's rights in this Article are
subject and subordinate to rights of first offer, option, expansion, extension,
or similar rights that have been granted to the existing tenants in the Project
(and their successors and assigns) as of the date of this Lease, and even if
extension rights have not been granted to existing or future tenants (or their
successors and assigns), Landlord always will have the right to extend the lease
terms of existing or future tenants (and their successors and assigns) without
being required to first offer that space as Offer Space to Tenant, and Tenant's
rights in this Article will be subject and subordinate to those extensions .
(d) The base rent per annum per square foot of rentable area for each
part of the Offer Space will be the scheduled base rent in Exhibit "D (which in
turn is subject to Rider #2).
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Landlord will have no
obligations to Tenant hereunder or otherwise nor will Tenant have any rights
hereunder or otherwise with respect to any particular Offer Space not already
leased to Tenant if and to the extent that: (i) with the inclusion of such Offer
Space, Tenant would be leasing aggregate Offer Space of more than 180,000 square
feet of rentable area, or aggregate space in the Premises (including Offer Space
and all other space) of more than 500,000 square feet of rentable area; or (ii)
at the time that Tenant exercises its rights to lease such Offer Space Tenant
has a net worth of less than $350 Million, or a combination of cash and readily
marketable securities of less than $50 Million, or a ratio of debt to assets of
more than .3 to 1.0 (and as a condition to leasing any Offer Space Tenant must
deliver to Landlord together with Tenant's exercise notice Tenant's
unconditional written certification, representation and warranty that it meets
or exceeds all of these financial standards, accompanied by written evidence
thereof reasonably satisfactory to Landlord).

28. EXPANSION OPTIONS.
-----------------
28.1 Expansion Options. Landlord grants to Tenant five (5) options (the
-----------------
"Expansion Options") to lease the Expansion Space on the terms and conditions of
this Lease, except as set forth below. "Expansion Space" means the unleased
space in the Project held for lease by Landlord, portions of which may be leased
by Tenant pursuant to the exercise of an Expansion Option as described below.
For each Expansion Option that is validly exercised by Tenant, subject to the
terms of this Article Landlord will deliver to Tenant vacant possession of not
more than 35,000 nor less than 25,000 square feet of rentable area in the
Project. The dates by which Tenant must exercise each Expansion Option are set
forth below. If Tenant validly exercises an Expansion Option, Landlord will
diligently attempt to deliver vacant possession of the applicable Expansion
Space to Tenant on or before the dates set forth below:
Expansion Option Exercise Date Delivery Date
------------------------------- ------------------------------- -------------------------------
1/st/ Expansion Option 10/15/1999 12/15/1999
2/nd/ Expansion Option 03/01/2000 06/01/1999
3/rd/ Expansion Option 09/01/2000 12/01/2000
4/th/ Expansion Option 12/01/2000 06/01/2001
5/th/ Expansion Option 06/01/2001 12/01/2001
The Expansion Options can be exercised only by Tenant delivering unconditional
written notice of exercise to Landlord on or before the applicable exercise date
set forth above. If for any reason Landlord does not actually receive this
unconditional written notice of exercise when required, that Expansion Option
will lapse and become null and void. If Tenant fails to validly exercise at
least two (2) out of the first three (3) Expansion Options, the fifth (5/th/)
Expansion Option will lapse and become null and void. The Expansion Options are
granted to and may be exercised by Tenant on the express condition that, at the
time of the exercise and at all times before vacant possession of the Expansion
Space is delivered to Tenant, Tenant is not in default. TIME IS ABSOLUTELY OF
THE ESSENCE. The Expansion Options are personal to the Tenant originally named
in this Lease and may not be exercised by or for anyone else (except by an
Acquiring Entity), and if Tenant Transfers any part of this Lease or the
Premises (except for Outside Subleases that all together aggregate less than 25%
of the rentable area of the Premises when made, or Family Subleases that all
together aggregate less than 75% of the rentable area of the Premises when made,
or subleases of any type that all together aggregate less than 75% of the
rentable area of the Premises when made) before the beginning of an applicable
Expansion Option term, at Landlord's election that Expansion Option and all
future Expansion Options will lapse and become null and void.
28.2 Additional Terms.
----------------
(a) With respect to any Expansion Space that Landlord is required to
deliver to Tenant (and with respect to the Additional Space), Landlord will not
incur Liabilities to Tenant if Landlord is unable to deliver vacant possession
of that Expansion Space by the applicable date in Section 28.1 (or if it is
unable to deliver vacant possession of the Additional Space during September,
1999) if due to the holdover of a previous tenant or force majeure, but if due
to a holdover or force majeure Landlord will diligently and in good faith
attempt to deliver vacant possession of that space as soon as reasonably
possible, and Tenant's rights and obligations with respect to that space will
commence as soon as Landlord delivers vacant possession. If for any reason other
than a holdover or force majeure Landlord fails to deliver vacant possession of
that Expansion Space by the applicable date in Section 28.1 (or if for any
reason other than a holdover or force majeure it fails to deliver vacant
possession of the Additional Space during September, 1999), as Tenant's sole
right and remedy Tenant will have the right to terminate this Lease provided
that the following conditions are satisfied: Tenant is not in default and has
not committed acts or omissions which with the passage of time or the giving of
notice or both would constitute defaults; within thirty (30) days after the
missed delivery date Tenant delivers written notice to Landlord of its intention
to terminate and Landlord fails to deliver vacant possession of the applicable
Expansion Space (or the Additional Space) to Tenant within sixty (60) days after
receiving Tenant's notice; and Tenant delivers a final termination notice on or
before January 1, 2002. Under these circumstances, the Lease will terminate as
of August 31, 2002.
(b) When Landlord tenders vacant possession of any Expansion Space
to Tenant, that space will become part of the Premises and the rentable area of
the Premises will be increased by the rentable area of that Expansion Space. The
Rent Commencement Date for each portion of the Expansion Space will be the
earlier of the dates in Subsections (i) and (ii) below: (i) the date that Tenant
-------
occupies that Expansion Space to conduct business; or (ii) the date which is the
later of (x) the applicable Delivery Date for that Expansion Space per Section
-----
28.1, or (y) sixty (60) days after Landlord delivers vacant possession of that
Expansion Space to Tenant.
(c) The base rent per annum per square foot of rentable area for all
Expansion Space will be as set forth in Exhibit "D" (which in turn is subject to
Rider #2).
(d) If Tenant validly exercises its Expansion Options, it is
Landlord's present intention to deliver Expansion Space first on the second
Floor and then on the third Floor of Building 100, but notwithstanding the
foregoing or anything else to the contrary, the foregoing is not binding on
Landlord, and Landlord may change its intention and deliver Expansion Space in a
different order and/or in different locations, and neither this Lease nor any of
Tenant's obligations will be terminated, waived, excused or otherwise reduced in
any way by reason thereof.

EXTENSION OPTIONS
1. Subject to Rider # 3, Landlord grants to Tenant two (2) options to
extend the Lease term of the Initial Space and the Additional Space for
additional terms of five (5) years each, and two (2) options to extend the Lease
term of all Expansion Space leased for additional terms of five (5) years each,
and two (2) options to extend the Lease term of all Offer Space leased for
additional terms of five (5) years each (collectively, the "Extension Options").
For purposes of exercising the Extension Options, the Initial Space and the
Additional Space will be treated collectively (although separately from the
Expansion Space, and the Offer Space), and any and all Expansion Space will be
treated collectively (although separately from the Initial Space and the
Additional Space, and the Offer Space), and any and all Offer Space will be
treated collectively (although separately from the Initial Space and the
Additional Space, and the Expansion Space), so that when an Extension Option is
exercised or not exercised, it will affect all of the Initial Space and the
Additional Space, or all of the Expansion Space, or all of the Offer Space, as
applicable. There will be no further right to extend. The Extension Options for
the Initial Space and the Additional Space can be exercised only by Tenant
delivering to Landlord unconditional written notice of exercise specifying that
space at least one (1) calendar year before the expiration of the applicable
term for that space. The Extension Options for all Expansion Space leased can
be exercised only by Tenant delivering to Landlord unconditional written notice
of exercise specifying that space at least one (1) calendar year before the
expiration of the applicable term for that space. The Extension Options for all
Offer Space leased can be exercised only by Tenant delivering to Landlord
unconditional written notice of exercise specifying that space at least one (1)
calendar year before the expiration of the applicable term for that space. If
for any reason Landlord does not actually receive a notice of exercise when
required, that Extension Option and any subsequent Extension Option for that
space only will lapse and become null and void and there will be no further
right to extend the Lease term of that space. The Extension Options are granted
to and may be exercised by Tenant on the express condition that, at the time of
the exercise and at all times before the beginning of the Extension Option
period, Tenant is not in default (and has not committed acts or omissions which
would constitute a default with the passage of time or the giving of notice or
both). TIME IS ABSOLUTELY OF THE ESSENCE. Landlord will not be required to pay
for or perform any work to or for the Premises.
2. The Extension Options are personal to the Tenant originally named in
this Lease, and they may not be exercised by or for anyone else (except by an
Acquiring Entity). If during the initial term Tenant Transfers any part of this
Lease or the Premises (except for Outside Subleases that all together aggregate
less than 25% of the rentable area of the Premises when made, or Family
Subleases that all together aggregate less than 75% of the rentable area of the
Premises when made, or subleases of any type that all together aggregate less
than 75% of the rentable area of the Premises when made), at Landlord's written
election the Extension Options will lapse and become null and void, whether or
not they have been exercised.
3. (a) The annual base rent per square foot of rentable area for each
applicable space (i.e., for the Initial Space and the Additional Space treated
collectively but separately from all other space, and for all Expansion Space
leased treated collectively but separately from all other space, and for all
Offer Space leased treated collectively but separately from all other space) for
each year of each of the first Extension Option terms will be the scheduled base
rent for that space as set forth in Exhibit "D."
(b) The annual base rent per square foot of rentable area for each
applicable space (i.e., for the Initial Space and the Additional Space treated
collectively but separately from all other space, and for all Expansion Space
leased treated collectively but separately from all other space, and for all
Offer Space leased treated collectively but separately from all other space) for
each year of each of the second Extension Option terms will be the greater of:
(a) the scheduled base rent for that space as set forth in Exhibit "D"; or (b)
the "fair rental value" of that space determined in accordance with Section 4
below.
4. (a) If Landlord and Tenant can't agree on the annual base rent for
the applicable space for each year of the applicable Extension Option term at
least six (6) months before the beginning of that Extension Option term, then
unless otherwise agreed in writing by Landlord and Tenant, Landlord and Tenant
will try to agree on a single appraiser at least five (5) months before the
beginning of the applicable Extension Option term. If they can agree on a
single appraiser in that time period then that appraiser will determine the fair
rental value in accordance with this Rider. If Landlord and Tenant can't agree
on a single appraiser within this time period, then Landlord and Tenant each
will appoint in writing one appraiser not later than four (4) months before the
beginning of the applicable Extension Option term. Within fifteen (15) days
after their appointment, the two appointed appraisers will appoint in writing a
third appraiser. If the two appraisers can't agree, a third appraiser will be
appointed by the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (or if this
organization refuses to act or no longer exists, by an organization deemed by
Landlord to be reasonably equivalent thereto) not later than three (3) months
before the beginning of the applicable Extension Option term. If either
Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint its appraiser within the prescribed time
period, the single appraiser appointed will determine the fair rental value. If
both parties fail to appoint appraisers within the prescribed time periods, then
the first appraiser validly appointed by a party will determine the fair rental
value. Appraisers must have at least five (5) years' experience in the
appraisal of office property in the area in which the Building is located and be
members of professional organizations such as the American Institute of Real
Estate Appraisers or the equivalent. The appraiser(s) will be required to
provide a written determination of the fair rental value not later than two (2)
months before the beginning of the applicable Extension Option term.
(b) For the purpose of this Lease, the term "fair rental value" means:
ninety five percent (95%) of: the annual base rent per square foot of rentable
area that a ready and willing tenant would pay for that space during the
applicable Extension Option term to a ready and willing landlord of that space
assuming that such space was exposed for lease on the open market for a
reasonable period of time, could be used for any lawful use and was improved to
its then-existing level, and that a market-rate construction allowance was
offered to and received by such hypothetical tenant (even though such
construction allowance will not actually be paid or provided to Tenant). If
only a single appraiser is appointed as described above, then that appraiser
will determine the fair rental value. Otherwise, the fair rental value will be
the arithmetic average of the two (2) of the three (3) appraisals which are
closest in amount, and the third appraisal will be disregarded.
(c) If for some reason the fair rental value is not determined before
the beginning of an Extension Option term, then Tenant will continue to pay to
Landlord the base rent applicable to that space as described in Section 3(a)
above, as applicable, until the fair rental value is determined. When the fair
rental value is determined, Landlord will notify Tenant, and Tenant will pay to
Landlord, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, any difference
between the base rent actually paid by Tenant to Landlord and the new base rent
determined hereunder (if the new base rent is higher).

TERMINATION RIGHT
1. Provided that Tenant has validly leased Expansion Space and/or Offer
Space, subject to the terms hereof Landlord grants to Tenant the right to
terminate this Lease provided that the following conditions first are satisfied
in all respects:
(a) Tenant delivers unconditional written notice of termination to
Landlord: (i) during the period starting on March 31, 2007 and ending on March
31, 2008 (the "First Termination Notice"); or (ii) if Tenant has not delivered
the First Termination Notice and has validly exercised all of its applicable
---
first Extension Options so that the Lease terms for the Initial Space, the
Additional Space, any and all Expansion Space and any and all Offer Space have
been extended pursuant to the first Extension Options, then during the period
starting on March 31, 2012 and ending on March 31, 2013 (the "Second Termination
Notice"); or (iii) if Tenant has not delivered the First Termination Notice or
the Second Termination Notice and has validly exercised all of its applicable
---
first Extension Options and all of its applicable second Extension Options so
---
that the Lease terms for the Initial Space, the Additional Space, any and all
Expansion Space and any and all Offer Space have been extended pursuant to the
first and second Extension Options, then during the period starting on March 31,
2017 and ending on March 31, 2018 (the "Third Termination Notice"). Tenant can
only deliver either the First Termination Notice or the Second Termination
Notice or the Third Termination Notice.
(b) Within six (6) months after delivery of either the First
Termination Notice or the Second Termination Notice or the Third Termination
Notice, as applicable, Tenant pays to Landlord by wire transfer a Lease
termination fee equal to seventy five percent (75%) of the base rent and all
additional rent (including Tenant's share of Operating Costs, Taxes and
Landlord's insurance premiums) that would have been payable under the Lease
absent early termination for the entire Premises for the period: (i) starting
April 1, 2009 and ending on the last scheduled expiration date of this Lease (if
the First Termination Notice is delivered); or (ii) starting on April 1, 2014
and ending on the last scheduled expiration date of this Lease as extended (if
the Second Termination Notice is delivered); or (iii) starting on April 1, 2019
and ending on the last scheduled expiration date of this Lease as extended (if
the Third Termination Notice is delivered). In determining Tenant's share of
Operating Costs, Taxes and Landlord's insurance premiums, the amounts will be
equal to the amounts budgeted by Landlord in good faith for the Project for that
period. This Lease termination fee will be in addition to all other amounts due
under the Lease through and until the date that this Lease terminates. (As a
hypothetical example, if Tenant validly delivers the First Termination Notice
and is leasing the Initial Space and the Additional Space, 30,000 s.f. of
Expansion Space and 30,000 s.f. of Offer Space, the Lease termination fee would
include no base rent or additional rent for the Initial Space and the Additional
Space [since the Lease terminates as of March 31, 2009 with respect to that
space], all base rent and additional rent that would have been payable for the
30,000 s.f. Expansion Space through May 31, 2010 [since the Lease would have
terminated then with respect to that space], and all base rent and additional
rent that would have been payable for the 30,000 s.f. Offer Space through May
31, 2011 [since the Lease would have terminated then with respect to that
space]).
(c) Tenant is not in default (and has not committed acts or omissions
which would constitute default with the passage of time or the giving of notice
or both).
2. If the conditions set forth in Section 1 above have been satisfied,
the expiration date of this Lease will be accelerated to Xxxxx 00, 0000 (xx the
First Termination Notice is validly given), or Xxxxx 00, 0000 (xx the Second
Termination Notice is validly given) or Xxxxx 00, 0000 (xx the Third Termination
Notice is given). TIME IS ABSOLUTELY OF THE ESSENCE. The termination or
expiration of this Lease will not relieve Tenant from Liabilities incurred by
Tenant prior thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, unless
otherwise specifically elected by Landlord in writing in each instance: (a)
Tenant will not have the right to terminate this Lease pursuant to the First
Termination Notice if, prior thereto, Tenant has exercised any Extension Options
or otherwise extended this Lease by mutual written agreement; (b) Tenant will
not have the right to terminate this Lease pursuant to the Second Termination
Notice if, prior thereto, Tenant has exercised any of its second Extension
Options for any of its space or otherwise extended this Lease by mutual written
agreement (except pursuant to the first Extension Options); (c) Tenant will not
have the right to terminate this Lease pursuant to the Third Termination Notice
if, prior thereto, Tenant and Landlord have further extended this Lease by
mutual written agreement (except pursuant to the first and second Extension
Options); and (d) from and after the date that Tenant validly delivers either
the First Termination Notice or the Second Termination Notice or the Third
Termination Notice, as applicable, Tenant will have no further rights to extend
the term of this Lease or lease any additional Expansion Space, Offer Space or
other additional space, and all of Tenant's rights in connection with Extension
Options, Expansion Options, Offer Space or other additional space shall lapse
and become null and void, and Tenant will have no further rights to assign,
sublease or otherwise Transfer all or any portion of this Lease or the Premises
or any interest therein. (Neither Tenant nor Landlord will have any obligation
to negotiate or agree to extensions of this Lease in addition to the Extension
Options already granted in Rider #2.)
