All other work to prepare this (F-101) office suite for Tenant shall

Suite F-103 is currently occupied by Wholesale Printing. Wholesale
Printing has provided Landlord written notice that Wholesale Printing shall
vacate F-103 as of September 30th 2000.

If Wholesale Printing fails to vacate on or before September 30th 2000,
Landlord shall immediately take all reasonable steps in a continuous fashion to
legally evict Wholesale Printing from Suite F-103. Tenant understands and agrees
this may cause a delay in leasing Suite F-103 to Tenant.

Pursuant to the terms of this Lease, Landlord at Landlord's expense shall
install new carpet, and cove base and paint all existing previously painted
surfaces within this (F-103) office Suite. Additionally Landlord at Landlord's
expense shall open a portion of the wall separating F-101 and F-103 and patch
and repair such opening if requested by Tenant at the commencement of Tenant's
occupancy of F-103.

All other work to prepare this (F-103) office suite for Tenant shall be at
Tenant's expense.

Landlord shall require a minimum of one month to complete Landlord's work
and anticipated Tenant work requirements for this office suite (F-103). All work
by Landlord shall be completed in a good and workmanlike manner.

Accordingly, Tenant shall provide Landlord plans of Tenant's work
requirements for F-103 (Wholesale Printing) on or before December 1st 2000.

Landlord agrees if Tenant provides to Landlord Tenant's build-out
requirements on or before December 1st 2000, and if Landlord has not reasonably
completed this work on or before December 31st 2000, then Tenant's rental
obligations for this suite F-103 shall not commence until the date Landlord has
substantially completed Tenant's work for this suite F-103. "Substantially
completed" as used herein shall mean completion to a state reasonably usable by
Tenant with exception for minor "punch list" items which Landlord shall complete
within thirty (30) days after Tenant's notice thereof.

requirements on or before December 1st 2000, and such failure is the primary
cause preventing Landlord from completing Tenant's build-out requirements on or
before December 31st 2000, Tenant's rental obligations for this office suite
F-103 shall still commence January 1st 2001.

Landlord agrees, if Landlord has not substantially completed Tenant's
build-out specifications within a one month period from the date of receiving
Tenant's complete build-out specifications, then Tenant's rental obligations
shall be suspended until Landlord has substantially completed Tenant's requested
build-out improvements.

($100.00) Dollars each time that Tenant issues and delivers to Landlord a check
or draft that is not honored for any reason or returned for insufficient funds
by Tenant's financial institution. If Tenant does not pay this penalty and
replace such "bounced check" within ten (10) days of written notification from

Landlord then such inaction by Tenant shall be considered a material breach of
this Lease which may result in its early termination.

Should Landlord not receive Tenant's monthly rental payment "in hand" on

additional rent, a late penalty fee equal to five percent (5.00%) of the
outstanding rent owed for that rental period. If Tenant does not pay this late

2.2 OPTION TO EXTEND LEASE TERM

Tenant shall have the right to extend the Lease Term with respect to all

Period") provided Tenant meets and adheres to the following conditions:

A. Tenant sends and Landlord receives "in hand" on or before 5:00 PM
June 30th 2004 written notice via certified mail, return receipt requested or by

B. At the time of exercising this option, Tenant must be in
conformance and in good standing in all material respects with Tenant's
obligations and conditions under this Lease.

Monetary arrearage in excess of fifteen (15) days by Tenant, shall constitute a
material breach of this Lease and prevent Tenant from exercising this right of
lease extension.

C. During the Option Period, all terms, covenants, conditions and
provisions of this Lease shall remain in full effect and force except Tenant's
Base Rent during the first year of this Option Period shall be the higher of the
following: (a) Tenant's prior year annual Base Rent; and (b) Current Market
Rent. Determination of Current Market Rent for the last five months of the Lease
Term, with respect to Suites F-101, F-103, F-104, S-201, and T-301, and, if
applicable, the initial year of Tenant's Option Period shall be as follows:

The phrase "Current Market Rent" shall mean the rental and all other
monetary payments and escalations that Landlord could obtain from a third party
desiring to lease space in the Malden commercial market as of July 1, 2005,
taking into account the type of building, the size, use, location, floor levels
and then condition of the demised premises, the quality of construction of the
building and of the demised premises, the services provided under the terms of
the proposed lease, including without limitation any special rights thereunder,
the rental then being attained for new leases of space comparable to the demised
premises in the Malden commercial market and all other factors that would be
relevant to a third party desiring to lease the demised premises; provided
however that no reduction, deduction or allowance for the construction of lessee
improvements shall be taken into account in determining Current Market Rent.
Upon Tenant's election to extend the Lease Term, or if Tenant elects not to
extend the Lease Term as herein provided, on or before July 31st 2004, Landlord
may, at its election, initially designate "Current Market Rent" by written
notice to Tenant, accompanied by data to support such designation (the
"Designation"). If Tenant disagrees with the Designation, Tenant shall notify
Landlord within fifteen (15) days after such Designation, of such disagreement
in writing; otherwise Tenant shall conclusively be deemed to have agreed to the
Designation.

In the event that the parties hereto disagree as to the Current Market
Rent, each party shall, within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice by
Tenant, appoint an appraiser. Each appraiser so appointed shall be instructed to
determine independently the Current Market Rent. If the difference between the
amounts so determined by such appraisers does not exceed ten percent (10%) of
the lesser of such amounts, then the Current Market Rent shall be equal to fifty
percent (50%) of the combined total of the amounts so determined. If the
difference between the amounts so determined exceeds ten percent (10%) of the
lesser of such amounts, then such two (2) appraisers shall have ten (10) days
thereafter to appoint a third appraiser, but if such appraisers fail to do so
within such ten (10) day period, then either Landlord or Tenant may request the
American Arbitration Association or any successor organization thereto to
appoint an appraiser within ten (10) days of such request, and both Landlord and
Tenant shall be bound by any appointment so made within such ten (10) day
period. If no such appraiser shall have been appointed within such ten (10)
days, either Landlord or Tenant may apply to any court having jurisdiction to
have such appointment made by such court. Any appraiser appointed by the
original appraiser, by the American Arbitration Association or by such court
shall be instructed to determine the Current Market Rent in accordance with the
definition of such term contained herein within twenty (20) days after its
appointment. If the third appraisal shall exceed the higher of the first two (2)
appraisals, the Current Market Rent shall be the higher of the first two (2)
appraisals; if the third appraisal is less than the lower of the first two (2)
appraisals, the

Current market rent shall be the lower of the first two (2) appraisals. In all
other cases, the Current Market Rent shall be equal to the third appraisal. All
such determinations of the Current Market Rent shall be final and binding upon
Landlord and Tenant as the Current Market Rent for the applicable effective
date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either party shall fail to appoint its
appraiser within the thirty (30) day period specified above (such party being
referred to herein as the "failing party"), the other party may serve notice on
the failing party requiring the failing party to appoint its appraiser within
ten (10) days of the giving of such notice. If the failing party shall not
respond by appointment of its appraiser within such ten (10) day period, then
the appraiser appointed by the other party shall be the sole appraiser whose
determination of the Current Market Rent shall be binding and conclusive upon
Landlord and Tenant. This provision for determination by appraisal shall be
specifically enforceable to the extent such remedy is available under applicable
law, and any determination hereunder shall be final and binding upon the parties
except as otherwise provided by applicable law. Each party shall pay for the
fees and expenses of the appraiser appointed by it, but the fees and expenses of
any third appraiser shall be shared equally by the parties. All appraisers
appointed hereunder shall be MAI appraisers, so-called.

For each additional year in the Option Period, Tenant's annual rental rate
shall be calculated by adding (a) Tenant's base rental rate for the immediately
preceding year, and (b) the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index
(CPI) [or similar Governmental measurement should this index no longer be
published] for the prior twelve month period multiplied by Tenant's base rental
rate for the immediately preceding year. It being understood at no time would
Tenant's rental rate decrease from the prior year.

For clarification purposes, the specific "CPI" index is the Consumer Price
Index for all Urban Consumers, Boston, Massachusetts Consolidated Metropolitan
District; All Items as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United
States Department of Labor.

portion of the Property or requires a building permit issued by the City of
Malden's Building Department or any associated City Department. However, Tenant
shall have the right to seek alternative quotes from other licensed contractors.
Tenant may select an alternative contractor's quote if such quote equals or
exceeds a seven and one-half percent (7.50%) reduction from Landlord's quote and

13. LANDLORD'S COVENANTS

A. Landlord covenants and agrees to maintain in good repair the roof and
the structural integrity of the Building, the common areas internally and
externally in and about the Building, all heating, ventilation and air
conditioning units and all other equipment located exterior to, but serving the
Building and the Leased Premises and all electrical and plumbing systems which
do not exclusively serve the Leased Premises, except to the extent Tenant is
obligated to maintain any such system pursuant to the terms of this Lease.
However, if any damage arises from Tenant or Tenant's employees', agents' or
customers' misuse, Tenant shall be solely responsible for repairing such damage
and restoring the Building and the Property to the same good working order and
condition as on the Commencement Date of this Lease, reasonable wear and tear
only excepted. Landlord warrants that at the commencement of this Lease, all

for any defect with respect to which Tenant has to notify Landlord within seven
(7) days of the commencement of the Lease Term for the particular area leased

Notwithstanding the above, Tenant shall be solely responsible for all
maintenance and repairs (including replacement) of any HVAC system exclusively
serving Tenant's computer room.

B. Landlord and Tenant shall use all reasonable efforts to resolve any
problems or conflicts that may arise between Landlord and Tenant in a timely and
common sense fashion.

C. Landlord shall furnish at no charge to Tenant in reasonable amounts the
following services and utilities:

Heating
Air Conditioning
Hot Water
Clean Water and Sewage
Off-Street Parking (Sixty Nine (69) spaces 09/08/00-12/31/00)

Tenant in a timely manner and as necessary shall keep Tenant's exterior entryway
and steps at the rear entrance off the rear parking lot of Tenant's Leased
Premises (F-104 & F-104A) reasonably clear and clean of all rubbish, snow and

Tenant has requested and Landlord has agreed to reasonably clear Tenant's
private entryway to suites F-l01, F-103, F-104 and F-104A and steps of snow and
ice and salt this area in a reasonable fashion. Tenant shall be charged a fee of
thirty-five ($35.00) dollars per snow storm as an additional charge for such
service.

Landlord shall provide this service at the same time Landlord is providing
snow and ice removal services to other tenants and the exterior common areas of
the Property. If Tenant deems it necessary, and so notifies Landlord, Landlord
shall attempt to accelerate the timing of this service by Landlord's
then-current vendor. Until such time, as the entryway and steps are cleared each
instance, Tenant shall direct Tenant's employees, visitors and agents to use the
main entryway areas of the Building.

Landlord shall shovel on behalf of Tenant, but at Landlord's expense, the
access way leading to Tenant's basement storage area. Landlord shall provide
this service at the same time Landlord is providing snow and ice removal
services to other tenants and the exterior common areas of the Property.

D. Reasonable use

Landlord's providing of services or utilities to Tenant as described above
is strictly contingent upon Tenant's reasonable use or consumption of such
utilities and services. If Landlord reasonably determines Tenant is wasting such
utilities, such as city water or other building services, and Tenant fails to
reduce such use after notice by Landlord, then such irresponsible use by Tenant
shall constitute a material breach of this Lease which at Landlord's option may
result in either an early termination of the Lease Term or an immediate stoppage
of Landlord supplying to Tenant such utilities and services.

E. Timing of Utilities

Heat and air conditioning shall be supplied during normal business hours
defined herein as

Monday - Friday 8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Saturday None
Sunday None

"Supplied,"as used herein, shall mean that reasonably comfortable temperatures
are maintained during such hours, notwithstanding that HVAC systems may have to
be put in operation prior to 8:00 a.m. or operate until or after 8:00 p.m. on
such days.

Landlord acknowledges that Tenant shall be using the Leased Premises
frequently beyond normal business hours and agrees to arrange for heat, air
conditioning, and hot and cold water within Leased Premises during all extended
"Tenant" business hours.

If Tenant's business hours exceed 8:00 am. - 8:00 p.m. Monday through
Friday or any portion of Saturdays or Sundays on a frequent basis, as determined
by Landlord, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the additional costs of
providing such services, during such periods.

Lease; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be liable for, nor shall rent
xxxxx because of interruption or cessation of any essential service to the
Leased Premises of the Building or agreed in this Lease to be furnished, which
is due to an accident, labor difficulties, scarcity of or inability to obtain
fuel, electricity, or any services or supplies from the sources from which they
may customarily have been obtained, fault of Tenant or any third party, or due
to any cause beyond Landlord's control.

G. Upon Tenant paying the rent and performing and observing all the
covenants, conditions, duties, and other provisions of this Lease on Tenant's
part to be performed and observed, Tenant shall peacefully and quietly have and
enjoy the Leased Premises during the Lease Term without any manner of hindrance
or molestation from Landlord, subject however, to the terms and conditions of
this Lease.

H. Landlord, warrants that within NINETY (90) days of the signing of this
Lease by all parties (except for testing and "fine tuning" work, which may be
accomplished during the cooling season, as reasonably necessary for
effectiveness, provided that all work contemplated under this subsection 13.H
shall be completed no later than June 30, 2001), Landlord shall perform at
Landlord's sole expense, the following work to the HVAC systems serving the
entire Building:

1. Retain the services of Siemens to perform the following:

a. Recalibrate all EMS sensors within 00 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx.

b. Recalibrate outside air temperature sensor.

c. Write and install a software patch creating separate winter
and summer programs. Additionally, program the software so it
shall allow the computer to switch back and forth based upon
outside temperature setting and actual interior space
temperature.

2. Set up meeting with Tech Air and Siemens to discuss integrating
hardware enhancements into the EMS system. Specifically the
installation of the following:

a. Enthalpy (humidity control for 0xx xxxxx) sensor.

b. Installation of float switch sensor with ability to cut out
fan coil unit when and if condensate pan level gets to high.

c. Installation of new "outside" dampers throughout the Building.

d. Activation or replacement as necessary of AC units serving the
common lobby areas.

3. Discuss 2nd floor problems Tenant has been having with regard to
humidity and stuffiness and determine if new software installed in
Spring 2000 which is modulating the opening and closing of the
dampers (5 minutes in 20 minutes) shall be effective or should be
discontinued upon completion of the other actions as outlined in
this Section 13.H.

4. Demonstrate to Tenant steps involved to access EMS system and
initiate various commands Tenant would control. On or before
December 1st 2000, upon Tenant's request, Landlord shall provide
on-site a four (4) hour education session for up to three (3) Tenant
and two (2) Landlord personnel to learn the following commands:

a. Ability to temporarily override existing temperature settings
in a particular area.

b. Ability to view and reset setting point(s) computer uses to
switch from summer to winter or from winter to summer.

c. Install software (if presently existing) that would allow
"temporary" override from winter setting to summer (or
reverse) depending on perceived need. Such software shall have
a time out mechanism, which effectively would reset system
back to original guidelines before temporary override.

d. Priority on/off commands.

e. Review temperature and command status settings per zone.

f. Review trends for individual area zones.

g. Method to change hours of operations including holidays,
weekends etc.

a. Set up maintenance contract with Tech Air that provides for
the maintenance of the 00 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx HVAC systems within
specified 90 day time periods. Work to be performed during
these quarterly maintenance inspections are as follows.

* Change filters.
* Check and clean condensate traps as necessary.
* Blow out condensate traps with spring cleaning.
* Review diffusers to see if any closed off and
reopen as deemed appropriate.
* Clean condenser coils annually.
* Check and test damper operations.

b. Tech Air shall measure the heat load for area ECU 17 to
determine if the existing unit is sufficient to meet the
existing heat load of Tenant. If this review determines this
unit needs to be enlarged due to this demand, then Landlord
and Tenant shall each pay 50% of the cost to expand such
system and reconfigure duct work as necessary. Tenant has the
right to review such heat load measurements at Tenant's
expense.

c. Review problems in the area FCU 18 location. However, due to
this zone's location (north side of building) and the fact the
EMS sensor was off by 2.00 degrees per Jerry's on-site test,
Landlord expects that calibrating the EMS sensor should
resolve this area's problems.

d. Tech Air shall measure the heat load for area FCU 22 to
determine if the existing unit is sufficient to meet existing
heat load of Tenant. If this review determines this unit needs
to be enlarged due to this demand, Landlord and Tenant shall
each pay 50% of the cost to expand such system and reconfigure
duct work as necessary. Tenant has the right to review such
heat load measurements at Tenant's expense.

e. Review all three floors' common lobby HVAC equipment to
determine steps necessary to reactivate heat and air
conditioning systems for these zones.

f. Installation of condensate pans with float switches underneath
all ceiling AC units as reasonably possible.

dampers that are spring loaded and automatically close if they
fail. With regard to the 3rd level, tie these dampers into the
EMS enthalpy system.

i. Test to verify the 3rd floor outside air intake configuration
is operating within standard norms with regard to temperature
differentials. If not, raise this intake to achieve sufficient
performance.

j. Resolve Estelle's office (FCU 23 zone) HVAC needs by
installing within such office area a motorized damper tied
into a thermostatic control that she shall be able to control
and adjust.

k. Rebalance air-flow distribution for FCU zone 26 to minimize
cold office and conference room.

l. Open all diffusers within Leased Premises. This shall be the
last step/action performed

After the foregoing HVAC improvements have been completed, Tenant shall have the
right to engage a consultant periodically, at Tenant's expense, to inspect,
survey, and review the functioning of the HVAC systems serving the Leased
Premises. In the event that any such consultant recommends reasonable repairs,
improvements or upgrades necessary or reasonably advisable to improve the
functioning of such HVAC systems, Landlord shall negotiate in good faith with
Tenant regarding such improvements and repair and promptly implement such
reasonable recommendations as both Landlord and Tenant shall agree shall be
made, at Landlord's expense.

I. Landlord at Landlord's expense shall perform the following
work items on or before June 30, 2001:

1. Paint the stucco front exterior of Building. Colors and style

lighting) of the elevator.

16. Build a new dumpster enclosure.

17. Check all window systems to caulk as necessary to reduce water
leaks.

14. CASUALTY OR EMINENT DOMAIN TAKING

If the Leased Premises or Building, or any substantial part (twenty-five
percent (25%) or more of either materially affecting Tenant's operations), shall
be taken by or under threat of right of eminent domain or shall be materially
destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty or by action of any public or
other authority, or shall suffer any material direct or consequential damage for
which Landlord and Tenant, or either of them, shall be entitled to compensation
by reason of anything done in pursuance of any public or other authority during
the term of this Lease or any extension or renewal thereof, then this Lease
shall forthwith terminate at the election of Landlord, which election may be
made notwithstanding Landlord's entire interest may have been divested; and, if
Landlord shall not so elect, then in case such taking, destruction, or damage
renders the Leased Premises unfit for use and occupation, a just proportion of
the rent according to the nature and extent of injury, shall be abated until the
Leased Premises (or, in case of a partial taking, what remains thereof) shall
have been put in proper condition for use and occupation. If a partial or total
taking renders the remainder of the Leased Premises insufficient for Tenant's
use and Tenant shall so certify in good faith to Landlord, or if a taking or
such casualty shall be so extensive that restoration or repair cannot reasonably
be effected within 90 from the date on which insurance proceeds become
available, or if Landlord shall fail to repair or restore the Leased Premises
within ninety (90) days following such date on which

insurance proceeds become available or condemnation, then Tenant may terminate
this Lease by notifying Landlord of such election. Landlord reserves all rights
to damage to the Leased premises and Building and the leasehold hereby created,
whether now accrued or hereafter accruing, by reason of anything lawfully done
in pursuance of any public or other authority, and by way of confirmation,
Tenant grants to Landlord all of Tenant's rights to such damages and covenants
to execute and deliver such further instruments of assignments thereof as
Landlord may from time to time reasonably request, provided, however, that
nothing herein shall impair Tenant's right to maintain an action for a separate
award from a third party for damage to the Leased Premises or Tenant's separate
property or for moving and relocation expenses. Landlord shall notify Tenant of
Landlord's decision to terminate this Lease or to Landlord's obligation to
restore the Leased Premises or the Building within thirty (30) days after the
occurrence of any event giving rise to Landlord's right so to terminate or to
restore, and Tenant shall deliver its above-described certificate to and notify
Landlord of Tenant's election to terminate this Lease within thirty (30) days
after the event giving rise to its right to so terminate, and any such
termination by Tenant shall be effective thirty (30) days after the date of
notice of such termination.

15. BROKERAGE

Both Tenant and Landlord warrant that except as set forth in this Section
15 neither party has had any dealings with any agent or broker in connection
with the Leased Premises which would result in any brokerage fees or commissions
being due and payable by either party. Tenant has retained the services of
Xxxxxxxx and Grew Inc. and shall be solely responsible for its fees.

16. LIMITATIONS OF LANDLORD'S LIABILITY

Landlord's obligations, rights and privileges under this Lease (including,
without limitation, any work letter or similar agreement between Landlord and
Tenant) beyond mere holding of legal title to the Leased Premises and other real
estate of which the Leased Premises are a part, shall be performed, held and
enjoyed by the beneficial owners of Landlord; but without recourse by Tenant in
any case against the personal estate of such beneficiaries or beyond the real
estate of which the Leased Premises are a part.

The covenants and agreements of Landlord and Tenant shall run with the
land and be binding on and inure to the benefit of their respective heirs,
executors, administrators, successors and assigns; but no covenant, agreement or
undertaking of Landlord, expressed or implied, shall bound any person except for
matters occurring during such person's period of ownership of the building, and
no fiduciary, shareholder, or beneficiary of Landlord, if a trust shall be
individually bound. Tenant agrees to look only to the owner of the Building for
performance of Landlord's obligations.

17. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE

Any and all rights and remedies which Landlord may have under this Lease,
at law or in equity, shall be cumulative and shall not be deemed inconsistent
with each other or exclusive,

of any two (2) or more of such rights and remedies may be exercised at the same
time insofar as permitted by law.

18. EFFECT OF WAIVERS OF DEFAULT

No consent or waiver, expressed or implied, by Landlord to or of any
breach of any covenant, condition or duty of Tenant shall be construed as a
consent or waiver to or for any other breach of the same or any other covenant,
condition, or duty hereunder.

The parties acknowledge that their covenants under this Lease are
independent and therefore Tenant waives any right to set off against Tenants
obligations to Landlord any money allegedly due from Landlord to Tenant by
reason of any purported default by Landlord hereunder otherwise.

19. NOTICE FROM ONE PARTY TO THE OTHER

Any notice from Landlord to Tenant shall be deemed to have been given if
mailed by Registered or Certified Mail addressed to Tenant at the Leased
Premises with a copy to Tenant's Counsel: Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx, 000
Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx, 00000, Attention: Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx,
Esq., or such other address as Tenant shall have last designated by written
notice to Landlord, so mailed. Any notice from Tenant to Landlord shall be
deemed to have given if mailed by Registered or Certified Mail addressed to
Landlord at Xxxxxxxx Properties Management Inc., 00 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxxxxxxx, 00000, or such other business as Landlord shall have last
designated by written notice to Tenant so mailed.

20. LANDLORD'S REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT

In the event that Tenant fails to pay any rent or other charges due
hereunder within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord that the same is due;
or fails to perform any of Tenant's obligations under the terms, conditions, or
covenants of this Lease for more than thirty (30) days after receipt of written
notice of such failure or if such failure shall be of such nature that the same
cannot be reasonably cured or remedied within such thirty (30) day period,
Tenant shall not in good faith have commenced the curing or remedying of such
failure within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently proceed
therewith to completion; or if Tenant shall abandon the Leased Premises; or if
this Lease or the estate created hereby shall be taken in execution or another
process of law; or if Tenant shall be adjudicated insolvent or bankrupt pursuant
to the provisions of any state or federal insolvency or bankruptcy act; or if a
receiver or trustee of the property of Tenant shall be appointed by reason of
Tenant's insolvency and inability to pay debts; or if any assignment shall be
made of Tenant's property for its benefit of the creditors, (all of the
foregoing being events of default), then and in any such event, Landlord,
besides other rights or remedies it may have, shall have the immediate right to
re-enter the Leased Premises and to remove all persons and property therefrom
without notice or resort to legal process and without being deemed guilty of
trespass or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned
thereby.

If Tenant shall fail to pay rent or any other charges within ten (10) days
after same becomes due and payable, such unpaid amounts shall bear interest from
the due date at four percent (4.00%) above the prime interest rate of the
CitiBank or its successor. In no event shall the interest rate payable by Tenant
exceed eighteen percent (18%).

21. RULES AND REGULATIONS

Landlord may establish at any time rules and regulations which Landlord
may reasonably deem appropriate for, among other things, the orderly and
efficient management and operation of the Building, the safety and convenience
of all persons at any time properly within or about the Building, the protection
and security of property, and for dealing with any emergencies. Tenant agrees
always to comply with such rules and regulations notwithstanding any failure of
other [ILLEGIBLE] or occupants of the Building to observe the same or Landlord's
failure to enforce the [ILLEGIBLE] against any persons other than Tenant.
Landlord agrees to enforce its rules and regulations with respect to other
tenants.

22. SUBORDINATION

This Lease shall, at the option of Landlord, be subject and subordinate to
any mortgages against, present or future, to any bank, financial institution, or
insurance company, [ILLEGIBLE] the Leased Premises.

Such subordination shall not be effective against Tenant, unless Tenant is
provided with a non-disturbance agreement executed by the party to which
Tenant's interest shall be subordinated. Tenant's tenancy shall not be disturbed
so long as Tenant is not in default under the Lease. Landlord shall, within
reasonable time after the execution of this Lease, provide Tenant with such
non-disturbance agreement from Landlord's mortgagee. Tenant agrees that it shall
upon notice by Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver within ten (10)
business days of such request therefor any and all instruments requested by
Landlord which Landlord may reasonably require in order to effect the issuance
of such subordination.

Any future subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement shall
be substantially similar to documents already in place or current CitiBank
standard agreements.

23. NO ACCORD AND SATISFACTION

No acceptance by Landlord of a sum smaller than the Base Rent, additional
rent, or any amount due to Landlord shall be deemed accepted other than on
account of the earliest installment of such amount as then may be due and
payable by Tenant nor shall any such payment of a smaller amount than due be
deemed an accord and satisfaction under the terms of the Lease.

24. APPLICABLE LAW AND CONSTRUCTION

This Lease shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If any provision of this Lease
shall to any extent be invalid,

remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby. There are no oral or
other written agreements between Landlord and Tenant affecting this Lease. This
Lease may be amended by an instrument in writing executed by both Landlord and
Tenant.

25. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of this Lease shall be determined to be void by any court
of competent jurisdiction, such determination shall not affect any other
provision of this Lease, and all other provisions shall remain in full force and
effect. If any provision of this Lease is capable of two [ILLEGIBLE]
constructions, one of which would render the provision void and the other of
which would render the provision valid, the provision shall have the meaning
which renders it valid.

26. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATIONS

Promptly at Landlord's reasonable request, Tenant shall furnish to
Landlord (or as Landlord may direct) Tenant's written and duly signed
certification that this Lease is in full force and effect without amendment (or
with such changes as may then be effective, which shall be [ILLEGIBLE] in the
certificate); any defense, offset, or counterclaim against rent-payment or other
obligations hereunder which Tenant may have; the dates to which rent and other
charges have been paid, and that neither Landlord nor Tenant is in default under
this Lease (or specifying any default either party in detail in the
certificate). Any prospective purchaser or mortgagee may rely on such
certification.

Promptly at Tenants reasonable request, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant
(or as Tenant may direct) Landlord's written and duly signed certification that
this Lease is in full force and [ILLEGIBLE] without amendment (or with such
changes as may then be effective, which shall be stated in the certificate); any
defense, offset, counterclaim or other obligations hereunder which [ILLEGIBLE]
may have; the dates to which rent and other charges have been paid; and that
neither Landlord nor Tenant is in default under this Lease (or specifying any
default of either party in [ILLEGIBLE in the certificate). Any prospective
purchaser or mortgagee may rely on such certifications.

27. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION

The parties hereto shall procure an appropriate clause in, or endorsement
on, any fire or [ILLEGIBLE] coverage insurance policy covering the Leased
Premises or the Building or personal property, or fixtures or equipment located
thereon or herein, pursuant to which the insurance company providing such
insurance waives subrogation or consent to a waiver of right of recovery, and
having obtained such clauses or endorsements of waiver of subrogation or consent
[ILLEGIBLE] waiver of right of recovery, each party hereby agrees that it shall
not make any claim against [ILLEGIBLE] to recover from the other for any loss or
damage to its property or the property of others resulting from fire or other
perils covered by such fire and extended coverage insurance. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this ss.27, the party obtaining and paying the premium
such insurance shall not be required to obtain such endorsement or waiver if an
additional premium cost is incurred therefor, unless the other party hereto, for
whose benefit or endorsement or waiver is obtained, pays such additional premium
cost.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereby accept and agree to abide by the
terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease Agreement under seal this 31 day
of October, 2000.
