Parking Determination Date, Tenant's right to Parking Spaces shall be fixed at
the number last requested by Tenant in writing prior to the Parking

Commencement Date, the monthly charge for parking is One Hundred Ninety Dollars
($190.00) per Parking Space per month. If, for any reason, Tenant shall fail

and Landlord's contractors cooperate in all commercially reasonable ways with
each other to avoid any delay in either Landlord's Work or Tenant's Work or any

pay to Landlord, as additional rent,
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION

within ten (10) days after demand therefor, any costs or expenses incurred by
Landlord (which shall be reasonably based on Tenant's usage) for the use of
elevators, including, without limitation, the Freight Elevator, and/or hoisting
in connection with the performance of Tenant's Work. Landlord and Tenant
recognize that to the extent Tenant elects to perform some or all of Tenant's
Work during times other than normal construction hours (i.e., Monday-Friday,
7 a.m. to 3 p.m., excluding holidays), Landlord will need to make arrangements
to have supervisory personnel on site. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree as
follows: Tenant shall give Landlord at least forty-eight (48) hours' notice of
any time outside of normal construction hours when Tenant intends to perform
portions of Tenant's Work (the "AFTER-HOURS WORK"). Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord, within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, for the cost of
Landlord's supervisory personnel overseeing the After Hours Work. Landlord shall
notify Tenant of the hourly rates (which shall be normal and customary) for such
after-hours supervisory personnel from time to time upon written request. In
addition, if construction during normal construction hours unreasonably disturbs
other tenants of the Building or the Condominium, in Landlord's sole discretion,
Landlord may require Tenant to stop performance of Tenant's Work during normal
construction hours and to perform the same after normal construction hours,
subject to the foregoing requirement to pay for the cost of Landlord's
supervisory personnel.
4.3 LANDLORD'S CONTRIBUTION.
(a) AMOUNT. As an inducement to Tenant's entering into the Lease,
Landlord shall provide to Tenant a special tenant improvement allowance equal to
up to Seventy Five and 00/100 Dollars ($75.00) per rentable square foot of the

so-called "soft costs." Furthermore, in the event that Tenant does not build out
all of the Premises on or before the Outside Requisition Date (hereinafter
defined), Landlord's Contribution shall be limited to a maximum of Seventy-Five
and 00/100 Dollars ($75.00) per rentable square foot of the Premises actually

(hereinafter defined) of the cost shown on each requisition (hereinafter
defined) submitted by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days of submission
thereof by Tenant to Landlord until the entirety of Landlord's Contribution has
been exhausted. "LANDLORD'S PROPORTION" shall be a fraction, the numerator of
which is Landlord's Contribution and the denominator of which is the total
contract price for the applicable portion of Tenant's Work. A "REQUISITION"
shall mean written documentation (including, without limitation, invoices from
Tenant's contractors, vendors, service providers and consultants (collectively,
"CONTRACTORS") and partial lien waivers and subordinations of lien, as specified
in M.G.L. Chapter 254, Section 32 ("LIEN WAIVERS") with respect to the prior
month's requisition, and such other documentation as Landlord or any Mortgagee
may reasonably request) showing in reasonable detail the costs of the item in
question or of the improvements installed to date in the Premises, accompanied
by certifications from Tenant that the amount of the requisition in question
does not exceed the cost of the items, services and work covered by such
requisition. Each requisition shall be accompanied by evidence reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord, including without limitation Lien Waivers, that items,
services and work covered by the prior requisition have been fully paid by
Tenant and that the work has been performed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with
respect to the first requisition for Landlord's Contribution, Tenant shall not
be required to deliver Lien Waivers at the time of the requisition, but shall
deliver the Lien
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-11-
Waivers and evidence of payment of the requisition in full within five (5) days
following payment of Landlord's Contribution with respect to such first
requisition. Landlord shall have the right, upon reasonable advance notice to
Tenant, to inspect Tenant's books and records relating to each requisition in
order to verify the amount thereof. Tenant shall submit requisition(s) no more
often than monthly.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained: (i)
Landlord shall have no obligation to advance funds on account of Landlord's

paid by Landlord to Tenant in the prior month's requisition to Tenant's
Contractors, Landlord shall thereafter have the right to have Landlord's
Contribution paid directly to Tenant's Contractors; (iii) Landlord shall have no
obligation to pay any portion of Landlord's Contribution with respect to any
requisition submitted after the date (the "OUTSIDE REQUISITION DATE") which is
the earlier of: (A) three (3) months after the completion of all of Tenant's
Work, or (B) thirty-three (33) months after the Rent Commencement Date;
provided, however, that if Tenant certifies to Landlord that it is engaged in a
good faith dispute with any Contractor, such Outside Requisition Date shall be
extended while such dispute is ongoing, so long as Tenant is diligently
prosecuting the resolution of such dispute; (iv) Landlord's obligation to pay
any portion of Landlord's Contribution shall be conditioned upon there existing
no default by Tenant in its obligations under the Lease at the time that
Landlord would otherwise be required to make such payment; and (v) In addition
to all other requirements hereof, Landlord's obligation to pay the final
requisition of Landlord's Contribution shall be subject to simultaneous delivery
of all Lien Waivers relating to items, services and work performed in connection
with all phases or portions of Tenant's Work.
(d) In the event that there remains any unused portion of
Landlord's Contribution after the Outside Requisition Date, Tenant shall receive
a credit against subsequent monthly payments of Yearly Rent in the amount of up
to Ten Dollars ($10) per rentable square foot of such unused portion, amortized
over the term hereof at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum up to a maximum
of $1.59 per rentable square foot per year.
4.4 EQUIPMENT ALLOWANCE. (a) As an inducement to Tenant's entering
into the Lease, Landlord shall provide to Tenant a special tenant equipment
allowance equal to Two Hundred Sixty-Nine Thousand Six Hundred Twenty Seven and
29/100 Dollars ($269,627.29) (the "EQUIPMENT ALLOWANCE") to be used by Tenant to
pay for the reasonable cost of the acquisition of the equipment listed on
EXHIBIT 12 attached hereto (the "EQUIPMENT").
(b) Within thirty (30) days of receipt, Landlord shall pay to
Tenant, or at Tenant's written request, directly to the provider thereof, the
reasonable cost of the Equipment as shown on a reasonably detailed invoice
therefor.
(c) Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a security interest in all of
the Equipment, and the Equipment shall not be removed from the Premises at any
time during or at the end of the term hereof. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Landlord may, in addition to all other remedies, without notice or
demand except as provided below, exercise the rights afforded to a secured party
under the Uniform Commercial Code of the state in which the Premises are located
(the "UCC"). To the extent the UCC requires Landlord to give to Tenant notice of
any act or event and such notice cannot be validly waived before a default
occurs, then five (5) days' prior written notice thereof shall be reasonable
notice of the act or event. In order to perfect such security interest, Landlord
may file any financing statement or other instrument necessary at Tenant's
expense at the state and county Uniform Commercial Code filing offices. Within
ten (10) days following written request therefor, Tenant shall execute financing
statements to be filed of record to perfect Landlord's security interest in the
Equipment. Provided that Tenant has paid all sums due to Landlord under this
Section 4.4, and provided further that there is no
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-12-
Event of Default or event which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of
notice would constitute an Event of Default at the time of Tenant's request
therefor, upon written request by Tenant, Landlord shall file UCC termination
statements.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i)
Landlord shall have no obligation to advance funds on account of the Equipment
Allowance more than once per month; (ii) Landlord shall have no obligation to
pay any portion of the Equipment Allowance with respect to any invoice submitted
in accordance with Section 4.4(a) above after the date (the "OUTSIDE SUBMISSION
DATE") which is three (3) months after the Outside 4th Floor Completion Date;
and (iii) Landlord's obligation to pay any portion of the Equipment Allowance
shall be conditioned upon there existing no Event of Default or event which with
the giving of notice and/or the passage of time would constitute an Event of
Default at the time that Landlord would otherwise be required to make such
payment.
(e) Commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the
Outside Submission Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent the
total amount furnished by Landlord under the Equipment Allowance in equal
monthly installments, calculated by utilizing straight-line amortization over a
three-year term and assuming an interest rate of ten percent (10%) per annum.

the provisions of this Article 4 shall be resolved in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Article 28 hereof.

hereto.
8. SERVICES FURNISHED BY LANDLORD
8.1 ELECTRIC CURRENT.
(a) PRORATED CHARGES. Landlord shall have the right to charge
Tenant for its use of electricity in the Premises based upon one of two methods,
at Landlord's sole discretion. If Landlord elects to install and can feasibly
install separate checkmeters on a floor by floor basis, Landlord shall charge
Tenant for its share of electricity charges attributable to each floor of the
Building based upon the ratio of the rentable square footage in the portion of
the Premises on each floor to the total non-retail rentable square feet of space
on such floor ("FLOOR PERCENTAGE SHARE"). Tenant shall pay its Floor Percentage
Share of electricity charges attributable to such meter(s), as additional rent
hereunder, within ten (10) days of receipt of Landlord's invoice therefor.
(b) METERED CHARGES. Alternatively, Tenant may, at Tenant's
expense, furnish and install in a location approved by Landlord in or near the
Premises any necessary metering equipment approved by Landlord to be used in
connection with measuring Tenant's consumption of electric current in the
Premises, and Tenant, at Tenant's expense, shall maintain and keep in repair
such metering equipment. If the Premises are separately metered, Tenant shall
pay the full amount of any charges attributable to such meter on or before the
due date therefor either to Landlord or directly to the supplier thereof, at
Landlord's election.
(c) ROOFTOP ELECTRICITY. Landlord shall install a check meter to
measure the use of electricity by all equipment installed on the roof, including
Tenant's Rooftop Equipment. Landlord shall charge Tenant for its share of the
electricity charges attributable to the roof check meter based upon either (x)
the ratio of the number of hours of usage of Tenant's Rooftop Equipment to the
total hours of use shown on the check meter, or (y) the ratio of cubic feet per
minute ("CFM")'s requested by Tenant to total CFMs requested by other tenants of
the Building, at Landlord's election. Tenant shall pay its share of electricity
charges attributable to the roof check meter, as additional rent hereunder,
within ten (10) days of receipt of Landlord's invoice therefor.

-15-
(d) ALLOCATION BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall have the right to
monitor the allocation of electricity charges to all tenants of the Building to
ensure that the allocation method is appropriately related to Tenant's actual
use of electricity within or in connection with the Premises. If the current
method of allocation is inaccurate, Landlord may change the method of
allocation, as necessary, to correct the disproportionate charges. In addition,
if Landlord determines in the course of its audit of the electricity charges
previously allocated that Tenant has underpaid charges properly due for its use
of electricity, Landlord shall invoice Tenant for the amounts due (together with
reasonable back-up documentation regarding the total charges and the method of
allocating the charges to Tenant) and Tenant shall pay such additional amount,
as additional rent hereunder, within ten (10) days of receipt of Landlord's
invoice therefor.
(e) ADDITIONAL ELECTRICITY REQUIREMENTS. If Tenant shall
subsequently require electric current for use in the Premises in excess of the
capacity set forth in the Final Construction Drawings and related specifications
approved by Landlord and if in Landlord's reasonable judgment, (i) Landlord's
facilities are inadequate for such excess requirements, or (ii) such excess use
shall result in an additional burden on the Building air conditioning systems
and additional cost to Landlord on account thereof then, as the case may be,
Landlord, upon written request and at the sole cost and expense of Tenant, will
furnish and install such additional wire, conduits, feeders, switchboards and
appurtenances as reasonably may be required to supply such additional
requirements of Tenant if current therefor is available to Landlord, provided
that the same (v) shall be permitted by Legal Requirements and insurance
regulations, (w) shall not cause damage to the Building or the Premises, (x)
shall not cause or create a dangerous or hazardous condition, (y) shall not
entail excessive or unreasonable alterations or repairs, and (z) shall not
interfere with or disturb other tenants or occupants of the Building. Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord for such additional cost within ten (10) days of demand
therefor.
(f) REPLACEMENT LAMPS/BULBS. Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost and
expense and upon Tenant's request, shall purchase and install all replacement
lamps of types generally commercially available (including, but not limited to,
incandescent and fluorescent) and used in the Premises. Tenant, at Tenant's sole
cost and expense, shall purchase and install all replacement bulbs used in the
Premises.
(g) INTERRUPTION OF ELECTRICAL SERVICE. Subject to Section 8.6(b)
below, Landlord shall not in any way be liable or responsible to Tenant for any
loss, damage or expense which Tenant may sustain or incur if the quantity,
character, or supply of electrical energy which Landlord agrees to furnish
hereunder subsequently becomes no longer available or suitable for Tenant's
requirements.
(h) ALTERATIONS TO ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT. Tenant agrees that it will
not make any material alteration or material addition to the electrical
equipment and/or appliances in the Premises which would adversely affect any
base Building or laboratory base Building systems or equipment without the prior
written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent will not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and will promptly advise Landlord
of any other alteration or addition to such electrical equipment and/or
appliances.
8.2 WATER. Landlord shall furnish hot and cold water for ordinary
cleaning, toilet, lavatory and drinking purposes with respect to the office
areas and ordinary laboratory use with respect to the laboratory areas. Landlord
shall install a separate water meter for the Building and shall allocate the
water meter charges, together with any sewer charges based on said meter
charges, among the tenants of the Building based upon estimated water usage, as
reasonably estimated by Landlord. Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable
back-up documentation regarding the total charges and the method of allocating
the charges to Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent
hereunder, its allocated share of water charges within ten (10) days of demand
therefor.

(c) AIR CONDITIONING. Landlord shall through the air conditioning
equipment of the Building furnish to and distribute in the Premises air
conditioning when air conditioning may reasonably be required for the
comfortable occupancy of the Premises by Tenant. Landlord shall also furnish a
separate but integrated gas-powered air conditioning system for the laboratory

Tenant agrees to use reasonable efforts to lower and close the blinds or drapes
when necessary because of the sun's position, and to cooperate fully with
Landlord with regard to, and to abide by all the reasonable regulations and
requirements which Landlord may prescribe for the proper functioning and
protection of the air conditioning systems, provided Landlord first delivers a
copy of such regulations and requirements to Tenant.
(d) CLEANING. Landlord at its expense shall cause the common areas
of the Building to be cleaned Monday through Friday. Either EXHIBIT 8 (if
annexed hereto) or, otherwise, the cleaning standards generally prevailing in
first-class combination office/laboratory buildings in the City of Cambridge,
shall represent substantially the extent and scope of the cleaning by Landlord
referred to in this Section 8.3(d).
8.4 ADDITIONAL AIR CONDITIONING EQUIPMENT. In the event Tenant requires
additional air conditioning other than as specified in the 4th Floor Final
Construction Drawings and/or the 3rd Floor Final Construction Drawings for
equipment, business machines, meeting rooms or other special purposes, or
because of occupancy, then any additional air conditioning units, chillers,
condensers, compressors, ducts, piping and other equipment will be installed by
Landlord or, at Landlord's election, by Tenant with Landlord's supervision, in
either case at Tenant's sole cost and expense, but only if, in Landlord's
reasonable judgment, the same will not (i) cause damage or injury to the
Building, (ii) create a dangerous or hazardous condition, or (iii) entail
excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs or expense. Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord, as additional rent hereunder, for the cost incurred by
Landlord in installing, maintaining and operating such additional air
conditioning equipment and the charges for all utilities consumed thereby.
8.5 REPAIRS. Except as otherwise provided in Article 18, and subject to
Tenant's obligations in Article 14, Landlord shall keep and maintain the roof,

electrical, heating, air conditioning, plumbing, security or other systems) and
common facilities of the Building in good condition and repair. In addition,
Landlord shall operate and maintain the common areas of the Building and shall
cause the association of unit
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-17-
owners of the Condominium to operate and maintain the Condominium in
substantially the same manner as other first-class mixed use office/laboratory
facilities in the Xxxxxxx Square, Cambridge area.
8.6 INTERRUPTION OR CURTAILMENT OF SERVICES.
(a) LANDLORD RIGHTS. When necessary by reason of accident or
emergency, or for repairs, alterations, replacements or improvements which in
the reasonable judgment of Landlord are desirable or necessary to be made,
Landlord reserves the right, upon as much prior notice to Tenant as is
practicable under the circumstances and no less than twenty-four (24) hours'
notice except in the event of an emergency, to interrupt, curtail, stop or
suspend (i) the furnishing of heating, elevator, air conditioning, and cleaning
services, and (ii) the operation of the plumbing and electric systems. Landlord
shall exercise reasonable diligence to eliminate the cause of any such
interruption, curtailment, stoppage or suspension, but, subject to Section
8.6(b) below, there shall be no diminution or abatement of Rent or other
compensation due from Landlord to Tenant hereunder, nor shall this Lease be
affected or any of Tenant's obligations hereunder reduced, and Landlord shall
have no responsibility or liability for any such interruption, curtailment,
stoppage, or suspension of services or systems.
(b) ABATEMENT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Lease contained, if the Premises shall lack any service which Landlord is
required to provide hereunder, or if Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises
shall be disturbed in violation of Article 22 hereof (thereby rendering the
Premises or a portion thereof substantially untenantable) such that, for the
duration of the Landlord Service Interruption Cure Period (hereinafter defined),
the continued operation in the ordinary course of Tenant's business is
materially and adversely affected, and if Tenant ceases to use the affected
portion of the Premises (the "AFFECTED PORTION") during the period of
untenantability as the direct result of such lack of service or disturbance,
then, provided that Tenant ceases to use the Affected Portion during the
entirety of the Landlord Service Interruption Cure Period and that such
untenantability and Landlord's inability to cure such condition is not caused by
the fault or neglect of Tenant, Tenant's agents, servants, employees,
consultants, contractors, subcontractors, licensees and/or subtenants
(collectively, the "TENANT PARTIES"), Yearly Rent, Building Operating Expenses
and Taxes shall thereafter be abated in proportion to such untenantability until
the day such condition is completely corrected. For purposes hereof, the
"LANDLORD SERVICE INTERRUPTION CURE PERIOD" shall be defined as fifteen (15)
consecutive business days after Landlord's receipt of written notice from Tenant
of the condition causing untenantability in the Affected Portion, provided
however, that the Landlord Service Interruption Cure Period shall be twenty five
(25) consecutive business days after Landlord's receipt of written notice from
Tenant of such condition causing untenantability in the Affected Portion if
either the condition was caused by causes beyond Landlord's control or Landlord
is unable to cure such condition as the result of causes beyond Landlord's
control. The provisions of this Section 8.6(b) shall not apply in the event of
untenantability caused by fire or other casualty, or Taking (hereinafter
defined), which shall be governed by Article 18 below.
8.7 ENERGY CONSERVATION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Landlord may institute upon written notice to Tenant such
policies, programs and measures as may be necessary, required, or expedient for
the conservation and/or preservation of energy or energy services (collectively,
the "CONSERVATION PROGRAM"), provided however, subject to Legal Requirements,
that the Conservation Program does not, by reason of such policies, programs and
measures, reduce the level of energy or energy services being provided to the
Premises immediately prior to the institution of such policy, program and/or
measure. Upon receipt of such notice, Tenant shall comply with the Conservation
Program.
8.8 PREMISES POPULATION. Other than air conditioning, all services
provided by Landlord to
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-18-
Tenant are based upon an assumed maximum Premises population of one person per
one hundred fifty (150) rentable square feet of the Premises, which limit Tenant
shall in no event exceed. Tenant acknowledges that if it exceeds the foregoing
limitation, Landlord may incur costs including, without limitation, additional
costs due to the additional load on building systems. Tenant agrees to reimburse
Landlord for the amount of such costs (if any), as reasonably determined by
Landlord, due to a Premises population in excess of the foregoing maximum.
8.9 SECURITY. Landlord shall cause security personnel to be present at
the Condominium and the Parking Garage, and to inspect the exterior of the
Condominium buildings and the Common Areas thereof on a twenty-four (24) hour,
seven (7) days per week basis. The Parking Garage shall be equipped with
security cameras and emergency callboxes. As part of Landlord's Work, Landlord
shall install an electronic card access system at the Building entrance doors,
within the elevators and at the entrance to the Parking Garage. Notwithstanding
Landlord's obligation to provide security personnel and an electronic card
access system, Landlord shall not be liable for damage to property of Tenant in
the Premises or for injury to person unless such damage or injury is caused by
the negligence of Landlord, or the agents, employees, contractors,
subcontractors, invitees, licensees or other authorized representatives of
Landlord. Landlord will install a MAC security system for the Building and
Tenant shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to install its own
module for the Premises and connect same to the Building's security system.
Tenant shall be fully responsible for the cost of any repairs to the Building's
security system required as a result of the connection of Tenant's security
module thereto. Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost, expense and responsibility, may
install additional electronic card devices and systems within the Premises and
at the access points to the stairwells provided such devices and systems are
compatible with Landlord's electronic card access system.
9. UTILITIES
9.1 UTILITY SERVICES. In addition to Tenant's obligations under Sections
8.1 and 8.2 above and unless otherwise expressly provided herein, Tenant shall
obtain and pay for all other utilities and services, including without
limitation heat and air conditioning furnished to the Premises pursuant to
Article 8 above, consumed and/or furnished to the Premises, together with all
taxes, penalties, surcharges and maintenance charges pertaining thereto.
Landlord shall have the right to make any such payment if Tenant fails to do so
prior to delinquency, in which event Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the
amount so paid upon demand therefor, together with interest at the Default Rate
until paid in full.
9.2. TELECOMMUNICATION PROVIDERS. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein or in the Lease contained, Landlord has no obligation to allow
any particular telecommunication service provider to have access to the Building
or to Premises other than Verizon or Level 3 (collectively, the "APPROVED
PROVIDERS"). If Landlord permits such access, Landlord may condition such access
upon the payment to Landlord by Tenant or the service provider of any costs
incurred by Landlord in facilitating such access. Landlord's consent to
providing access to the Building to any service provider other than the Approved
Providers shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed provided
such access does not require any street opening permits or approvals (unless
otherwise agreed to by the City of Cambridge) or would unreasonably interfere
with the use of the common areas of the Condominium.
10. OPERATING EXPENSES AND TAXES
10.1 DEFINITIONS. As used in this Article 10, the words and terms which
follow shall have the meanings set forth below:
(a) "TAXES" shall mean the real estate taxes and other taxes,
levies and assessments
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-19-
imposed upon Unit 300 of the Condominium, and upon any personal property of
Landlord used in the operation of Unit 300, or on Landlord's interest in Unit
300 or such personal property (provided that to the extent such taxes, levies,
and assessments are still assessed against the Condominium as a whole, such
amounts shall be allocated among all Units comprising the Condominium based on
the assessor's records or, if the records do not provide a separate allocation,
based on square footage of the buildings in question unless Landlord reasonably
determines that such allocation should be made on another reasonable basis);
charges, fees and assessments for transit, housing, police, fire or other
services or purported benefits to Unit 300; service or user payments in lieu of
taxes; and any and all other taxes, levies, betterments, assessments and charges
arising from the ownership, leasing, operation, use or occupancy of Unit 300 or
based upon rentals derived therefrom, which are or shall be imposed by federal,
state, county, municipal or other governmental authorities. Taxes shall not
include any inheritance, estate, succession, gift, franchise, rental, income or
profit tax, capital stock tax, capital levy or excise, or any income taxes
arising out of or related to the ownership and operation of the Building or
Condominium, provided, however, that any of the same and any other tax, excise,
fee, levy, charge or assessment, however described, that may in the future be
levied or assessed as a substitute for or an addition to, in whole or in part,
any tax, levy or assessment which would otherwise constitute "Taxes," whether or
not now customary or in the contemplation of the parties on the Execution Date
of this Lease, shall constitute "Taxes," but only to the extent calculated as if
the Condominium were the only real estate owned by Landlord. "Taxes" shall also
include reasonable expenses (including without limitation legal and consultant
fees) of tax abatement or other proceedings contesting assessments or levies.
(b) "TAX PERIOD" shall be any fiscal/tax period in respect of which
Taxes are due and payable to the appropriate governmental taxing authority
(i.e., as mandated by the governmental taxing authority), any portion of which
period occurs during the term of this Lease, the first such Tax Period being the
one in which the Rent Commencement Date occurs.
(c) "OPERATING YEAR": shall mean a fiscal year in which occurs any
part of the term of this Lease.
(d) "BUILDING OPERATING COSTS" shall mean all costs incurred and
expenditures made by Landlord in the operation and management of the Building or
allocated to the Building, including, without limitation, any costs for
utilities supplied to the common areas of the Building, and any costs for repair
and replacements, cleaning and maintenance of the common areas of the Building,
including, without limitation, vehicular and pedestrian passageways serving the
Building, related equipment, facilities and appurtenances and cooling and
heating equipment. For costs and expenditures made by Landlord in connection
with the operation, management, repair, replacement, maintenance and insurance
of the Building as a whole, Landlord shall make a reasonable allocation thereof
between the retail and non-retail portions of the Building. A portion of
Condominium Operating Costs shall be included in Building Operating Costs in
accordance with Section 10.1(e). Building Operating Costs shall not include
Excluded Costs (hereinafter defined).
(e) "CONDOMINIUM OPERATING COSTS" shall mean all costs incurred and
expenditures made in the operation and management, repair, replacement,
cleaning, insurance and maintenance of the common areas of the Condominium,
exclusive of the Garage, the Building, and the other buildings in the
Condominium including without limitation a commercially reasonable management
fee paid to Landlord's property manager. To the extent that a cost included in
Condominium Operating Costs is also allocable to property other than the
Condominium, such cost shall be equitably allocated to each parcel of property
which benefits from such cost. The allocation of costs and expenditures among
the various buildings in the Condominium shall be on the basis of the ratio of
the total rentable square feet of each building in the Condominium to the total
rentable square feet of the Condominium, unless
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-20-
such allocation would result in a disproportionate charge (x) based upon the
manner in which any subsequent building in the Condominium is measured relative
to the manner in which the Building was measured, in which case the allocation
shall be made equitably among the buildings of the Condominium, or (y) based
upon the relative usage of the service on which such cost is based, in which
case such allocation shall be based upon such relative usage. Condominium
Operating Costs shall include, without limitation, the cost of operating any
appropriate amenities in the Condominium available to all tenants of the
Condominium, the costs of Landlord's management office for the Condominium and
any subsidy provided by Landlord for or with respect to any such amenity.
(f) "EXCLUDED COSTS" shall be defined as (i) any mortgage charges
(including interest, principal, points and fees); (ii) brokerage commissions;
(iii) salaries of executives, owners and employees above the grade of area
manager not directly employed in the management/operation of the Condominium;
(iv) the cost of work or services done or furnished by Landlord for a particular
tenant; (v) subject to Subsection 10.4 below, any capital expenditures or
capital improvements or such portion of any other expenditures which are not
properly chargeable against income; (vi) the costs of Landlord's Work and any
contributions made by Landlord to any tenant of the Condominium in connection

of the Condominium; (viii) franchise or income taxes imposed on Landlord; (ix)
costs paid or payable directly by individual tenants to suppliers, including
tenant electricity, telephone and other utility costs; (x) the cost of any
repairs made by Landlord pursuant to Article 18 below; (xi) increases in
premiums for insurance when such increase is caused by the use of the Building
by Landlord or any other tenant of the Building; (xii) costs or taxes relating
to the ownership, operation, maintenance or repair of the Parking Garage, other
than as set forth in Section 2.4 of the Lease; (xiii) maintenance and repair of
capital items not a part of the Building or the Condominium; (xiv) depreciation
of the buildings, improvements and the common areas comprising the Condominium;
(xv) costs relating to maintaining Landlord's existence as a corporation,
partnership or other entity; (xvi) advertising and other fees and costs incurred
in procuring tenants; (xvi) the cost of any items for which Landlord is
reimbursed by insurance, condemnation awards, refund, rebate or otherwise, and
any expenses for repairs or maintenance to the extent covered by warranties,
guaranties and service contracts; (xvii) costs incurred in connection with any
disputes between Landlord and its employees, between Landlord and Building
management, or between Landlord and other tenants or occupants; (xv) any cost to
the extent paid by Tenant pursuant to any other provision of this Lease; and
(xvi) any portion of contributions made by Landlord to the so-called WORKING
CAPITAL FUND (as defined in that certain Declaration of Trust and By-Laws of The
Technology Square Condominium Trust dated as of November 30, 2000).
(g) "CAPITAL INTEREST RATE" shall be defined as an annual rate of
either one percentage point over the XX Xxxx rate (Standard & Poor's corporate
composite or, if unavailable, its equivalent) as reported in the financial press
at the time the capital expenditure is made or, if the capital item is acquired
through third-party financing, then the actual (including fluctuating) rate paid
by Landlord in financing the acquisition of such capital item.
(h) "ANNUAL CHARGE-OFF" shall be defined as the annual amount of
principal and interest payments which would be required to repay a loan
("CAPITAL LOAN") in equal monthly installments over the Useful Life (hereinafter
defined) of the capital item in question on a direct reduction basis at an
annual interest rate equal to the Capital Interest Rate, where the initial
principal balance is the cost of the capital item in question.
(i) "USEFUL LIFE" shall be reasonably determined by Landlord in
accordance with sound accounting principles consistently applied in effect at
the time of acquisition of the capital item.
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-21-
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord reasonably concludes on the basis of
engineering estimates that a particular capital expenditure will effect savings
in Building Operating Costs and/or Condominium Operating Costs including,
without limitation, energy-related costs, and that such annual projected savings
will exceed the Annual Charge-Off of Capital Expenditures computed as aforesaid,
then and in such events, the Annual Charge-Off shall be determined based upon a
Useful Life which would cause the principal and interest payments in a full
repayment of the Capital Loan in question to equal the amount of projected
savings of such Useful Life.
10.2 TAX PAYMENT. (a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent,
Tenant's Percentage Share of Taxes. Landlord may make a good faith estimate of
the Taxes to be due by Tenant for any Tax Period or part thereof during the term
hereof, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the Rent Commencement Date and on
the first (1st) day of each calendar month thereafter, an amount equal to
Tenant's Percentage Share of Taxes for such Tax Period or part thereof divided
by the number of months therein. Landlord may estimate and re-estimate Tenant's
Percentage Share of Taxes and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to
Tenant. Thereafter, the monthly installments of Tenant's Percentage Share of
Taxes shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so
that, by the end of the calendar year in question, Tenant shall have paid all of
Tenant's Percentage Share of Taxes as reasonably estimated by Landlord. Any
amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment as herein
provided when actual Taxes are available for each Tax Period. As soon as
practicable after actual Tax bills are available for each Tax Period, Landlord
shall deliver to Tenant a copy of the same. If the total of such monthly
remittances is greater than Tenant's Percentage Share of the actual Taxes due
for such Tax Period, then, provided there is not an Event of Default nor an
event which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would
constitute an Event of Default, Tenant may credit the difference against the
next installment of Yearly Rent due hereunder, except that if such difference is
determined after the end of the term hereof, Landlord shall refund such
difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such determination to the
extent that such difference exceeds any amounts then due from Tenant to
Landlord. If the total of such remittances is less than Tenant's Percentage
Share of the actual Taxes due for such Tax Period, Tenant shall pay the
difference to Landlord within ten (10) days of Tenant's receipt of an invoice
therefor. Landlord's estimate for the next Tax Period shall be based upon the
actual Taxes attributable to the Building for the prior Tax Period plus a
reasonable adjustment based upon estimated increases in Taxes. In the event that
Payments in Lieu of Taxes ("PILOT"), instead of or in addition to Taxes, are
separately assessed to certain portions of the Building or the Condominium
including the Premises, Tenant agrees, except as otherwise expressly provided
herein to the contrary, to pay to Landlord, as additional rent, the portion of
such PILOT attributable to the Premises in the same manner as provided above for
the payment of Taxes. In the event that PILOT are separately assessed to certain
portions of the Building or the Condominium including the Premises, Tenant's
payments under this Section 10.2(a) shall not be greater than the amount that
would have been paid if such PILOT was not assessed.
(b) EFFECT OF ABATEMENTS. Appropriate credit against Taxes or PILOT
shall be given for any refund obtained by reason of a reduction in any Taxes by
the assessors or the administrative, judicial or other governmental agency
responsible therefor after deduction of Landlord's expenditures for reasonable
legal fees and for other reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining the Tax or
PILOT refund.
10.3 PAYMENT OF BUILDING OPERATING COSTS.
(a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, Tenant's
Percentage Share of Building Operating Costs. Landlord may make a good faith
estimate of Tenant's Percentage Share of Building Operating Costs for any
Operating Year or part thereof during the term based upon Landlord's pro forma
budget, a copy of which shall be delivered to Tenant when available, and Tenant
shall pay to
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-22-
Landlord, on the Rent Commencement Date and on the first (1st) day of each
calendar month thereafter, an amount equal to Tenant's Percentage Share of the
estimated Building Operating Costs for such Operating Year and/or part thereof
divided by the number of months therein. Landlord may reasonably estimate and
re-estimate Tenant's Percentage Share of Building Operating Costs and deliver a
copy of the estimate or re-estimate to Tenant. Thereafter, the monthly
installments of Tenant's Percentage Share of Building Operating Costs shall be
appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so that, by the end of
the calendar year in question, Tenant shall have paid all of Tenant's Percentage
Share of Building Operating Costs as reasonably estimated by Landlord. Any
amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment as herein
provided when actual Building Operating Costs are available for each Operating
Year.
(b) ANNUAL RECONCILIATION. Landlord shall, within one hundred
twenty (120) days after the end of each Operating Year, deliver to Tenant a
reasonably detailed statement of the actual amount of Building Operating Costs
for such Operating Year ("YEAR END STATEMENT"). If the total of such monthly
remittances on account of any Operating Year is greater than Tenant's Percentage
Share of the actual Building Operating Costs for such Operating Year, then,
provided there is not an Event of Default nor an event which, with the passage
of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute an Event of Default, Tenant
may credit the difference against the next installment of Yearly Rent due
hereunder, except that if such difference is determined after the end of the
term hereof, Landlord shall refund such difference to Tenant within thirty (30)
days after such determination to the extent that such difference exceeds any
amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord. If the total of such remittances is
less than Tenant's Percentage Share of the actual Building Operating Costs for
such Operating Year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord within thirty
(30) days of Tenant's receipt of an invoice therefor. Landlord's estimate of
Building Operating Costs for the next Operating Year shall be based upon the
actual Building Operating Costs for the prior Operating Year as reflected in the
Year-End Statement plus a reasonable adjustment based upon estimated increases
or decreases in Building Operating Costs.
10.4 CAPITAL EXPENDITURES.
(a) REPLACEMENTS. If, during the term hereof, Landlord shall
replace any capital items (collectively, "CAPITAL EXPENDITURES") the total
amount of which (net of any warranty claims) is not properly includable in
Building Operating Costs for the Operating Year in which they were made, in
accordance with sound accounting principles consistently applied, there shall
nevertheless be included in such Building Operating Costs and in Building
Operating Costs for each succeeding Operating Year the amount, if any, by which
the Annual Charge-Off (determined as hereinafter provided) of such Capital
Expenditure (less insurance proceeds, if any, collected by Landlord by reason of
damage to, or destruction of the capital item being replaced) exceeds the Annual
Charge-Off of the Capital Expenditure for the item being replaced.
(b) NEW CAPITAL ITEMS. If a new capital item is acquired which does
not replace another capital item which was worn out, has become obsolete, etc.,
and such new capital item being acquired is either (i) required by any Legal
Requirements enacted after the date of this Lease, or (ii) reasonably projected
to reduce Building Operating Costs, then there shall be included in Building
Operating Costs for each Operating Year in which and after such capital
expenditure is made the Annual Charge-Off of such capital expenditure.
10.5 PART YEARS. If the Rent Commencement Date or the Expiration Date
occurs in the middle of an Operating Year or Tax Period, Tenant shall be liable
for only that portion of the Building Operating Costs or Taxes, as the case may
be, with respect to such Operating Year or Tax Period within the term hereof.
Any credit pursuant to Section 10.2(b) for the years in which the Rent
Commencement
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-23-
Date or the Expiration Date occur shall be similarly pro-rated.
10.6 DISPUTES, SURVIVAL. Any disputes arising under this Article 10 may,
at the election of either party, be submitted for dispute resolution as provided
in Article 28 below. Any obligations under this Article 10 which shall not have
been paid at the expiration or sooner termination of the term hereof shall
survive such expiration and shall be paid when and as the amount of same shall
be determined and be due.
10.7 AUDIT RIGHT. After giving Landlord at least sixty (60) days' prior
written notice thereof, Tenant may inspect or audit Landlord's records relating
to Building Operating Costs for any periods of time within the previous fiscal
year before the audit or inspection. However, no audit or inspection shall
extend to periods of time before the Term Commencement Date. If Tenant fails to
object to the calculation of Tenant's Percentage Share of Building Operating
Costs on the Year-End Statement within sixty (60) days after such statement has
been delivered to Tenant, then Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its right
to object to the calculation of Tenant's Percentage Share of Building Operating
Costs for the year in question and the calculation of Tenant's Percentage Share
of Building Operating Costs set forth on such statement shall be final. Tenant's
audit or inspection shall be conducted only at Landlord's offices or the offices
of Landlord's property manager during business hours reasonably designated by
Landlord. Tenant shall pay the cost of such audit or inspection. Tenant may not
conduct an inspection or have an audit performed more than once during any
fiscal year. If such inspection or audit reveals that an error was made in the
calculation of Tenant's Percentage Share of Building Operating Costs previously
charged to Tenant, then, provided there is not an Event of Default nor an event
which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute an
Event of Default, Landlord shall refund to Tenant any overpayment of any such
costs, or Tenant shall pay to Landlord any underpayment of any such costs, as
the case may be, within ten (10) days after notification thereof. If Tenant's
inspection or audit reveals an overcharge of more than five percent (5%), then
Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for up to Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars
($5,000.00) of the reasonable cost of such audit or inspection within thirty
(30) days of receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor. Tenant shall
maintain the results of any such audit or inspection confidential and shall not
be permitted to use any third party to perform such audit or inspection, other
than an independent firm of certified public accountants (A) reasonably
acceptable to Landlord, (B) which is not compensated on a contingency fee basis
or in any other manner which is dependent upon the results of such audit or
inspection, and (C) which agrees with Landlord in writing to maintain the
results of such audit or inspection confidential.
11. FIXTURES, EQUIPMENT AND IMPROVEMENTS--REMOVAL BY TENANT
All fixtures (which expressly includes for purposes of this Section 11 fume
hoods, lab sinks and laboratory benches), equipment, improvements and
appurtenances attached to or built into the Premises prior to or during the term
hereof, whether by Landlord at Landlord's expense or at the expense of Tenant
(either or both) or by Tenant (but excluding all items of Tenant's Removable
Property) shall be and remain part of the Premises and shall not be removed by
Tenant during or at the end of the term hereof unless Landlord authorizes such
removal in writing or otherwise elects to require Tenant to remove such
fixtures, equipment, improvements and appurtenances, in accordance with the
terms of Section 12.1 below; provided, however, that Tenant shall have the right
to remove (at Tenant's expense) the items of "TENANT'S REMOVABLE PROPERTY"
listed on EXHIBIT 9, attached hereto (as same may be updated from time to time
by Tenant with the prior approval of Landlord), provided that such removal shall
not materially damage the Premises or the Building and that Tenant shall repair
any damage to the Premises or the Building arising from the installation or
removal thereof. In addition, (i) the Equipment shall not be removed from the
Premises, and (ii) the pure water system and the waste treatment system shall
not be removed from the Premises during or at the end of term hereof except,
upon at least ten (10)
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-24-
business days' prior written notice to Landlord, by the holder of a purchase
money security interest therein and then only as a result of Tenant's failure to
pay sums as and when due to such holder and in accordance with the terms of the
loan agreement by and between Tenant and such holder. Nothing in this Lease
shall be construed to permit Tenant to grant any interest whatsoever in (a) any
fixtures within the Premises or (b) any item paid in whole or in part with
Landlord's Contribution or the Equipment Allowance without the consent of
Landlord. All electric, plumbing, heating and sprinkling systems, fixtures and
outlets, vaults, paneling, molding, shelving, radiator enclosures, cork, rubber,
linoleum and composition floors, ventilating, silencing, air conditioning and
cooling equipment, shall be deemed to be included in such fixtures, improvements
and appurtenances, whether or not attached to or built into the Premises. Where
not built into the Premises, all removable electric fixtures, carpets, drinking
or tap water facilities, furniture, or trade fixtures or business or laboratory
equipment or Tenant's inventory or stock in trade shall not be deemed to be
included in such fixtures, improvements and appurtenances and may be, and upon
the request of Landlord will be, removed by Tenant upon the condition that such
removal shall not materially damage the Premises or the Building and that the
cost of repairing any damage to the Premises or the Building arising from
installation or such removal shall be paid by Tenant. Nothing in this Section 11
shall prohibit Tenant from relocating any fume hoods and laboratory benches
installed within the Premises from time to time during the term of this Lease.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, at the end of the
term hereof Tenant shall remove all autoclaves and cage washers from the
Premises.
12. ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS BY TENANT
12.1 Tenant shall make no alterations, decorations, installations,
removals, additions or improvements (collectively, "ALTERATIONS") in or to the
Premises (other than Tenant's Work which shall be governed by the provisions of
Article 4 above) without Landlord's prior written consent and then only those
made by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, but provided that no HVAC system serving any portion of the Building
is adversely affected, Tenant may make non-structural Alterations costing less
than $20,000 in any one instance ("PERMITTED ALTERATIONS") without Landlord's
prior written consent but subject to the provisions of this Lease including
without limitation Article 13 below. No Alterations other than Permitted
Alterations shall be undertaken or begun by Tenant until Landlord has approved
written plans and specifications and a time schedule for such work. No
amendments or additions to such plans and specifications shall be made without
the prior written consent of Landlord. Landlord's consent and approval required
under this Article 12 shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed, except for matters of aesthetics relating to Alterations to or
affecting the Rooftop Premises and/or the exterior of the Building, which shall
be determined in Landlord's sole discretion. Landlord's approval is solely given
for the benefit of Landlord and neither Tenant nor any third party shall have
the right to rely upon Landlord's approval of Tenant's plans for any purpose
whatsoever. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall be responsible for all
elements of the design of Tenant's plans (including, without limitation,
compliance with Legal Requirements, functionality of design, the structural
integrity of the design, the configuration of the Premises and the placement of
Tenant's furniture, appliances and equipment), and Landlord's approval of
Tenant's plans shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for such
design. Landlord shall have no liability or responsibility for any claim, injury
or damage alleged to have been caused by the particular materials (whether
building standard or non-building standard), appliances or equipment selected by
Tenant in connection with any work performed by or on behalf of Tenant in the
Premises. Any such Alterations shall be done at Tenant's sole cost and expense
and at such times and in such manner as Landlord may from time to time
reasonably designate. If Tenant shall make any Alterations to the Premises other
than the Permitted Alterations, then Landlord may elect to require Tenant at the
expiration or sooner termination of the term hereof to restore the Premises to
substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to the Alteration.
Upon Tenant's request, Landlord agrees to make such election at the
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-25-
time that Landlord approves Tenant's plans for any such Alterations. Tenant
shall provide Landlord with reproducible record drawings of all Alterations
within sixty (60) days after completion thereof.
12.2 Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, within ten (10)
days after demand therefor, any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord (which
shall be reasonably based on Tenant's usage) for the use of elevators (including
without limitation the Freight Elevator) and/or hoisting in connection with the
performance of any Alterations. Landlord and Tenant recognize that to the extent
Tenant elects to perform some or all of the Alterations during times other than
normal construction hours, Landlord will need to make arrangements to have
supervisory personnel on site. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree as
follows: Tenant shall give Landlord at least forty-eight (48) hours' notice of
any time outside of normal construction hours when Tenant intends to perform
portions of the Alterations. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, within thirty (30)
days after demand therefor, for the cost of Landlord's supervisory personnel
overseeing such after hours work. In addition, if construction during the normal
construction hours unreasonably disturbs other tenants of the Building or the
Condominium, in Landlord's sole discretion, Landlord may require Tenant to stop
the performance of the Alterations during normal construction hours and to
perform the same after hours, subject to the foregoing requirement to pay for
the cost of Landlord's supervisory personnel.

following covenants and agreements:

create any difficulty, whether in the nature of a labor dispute or otherwise,
with other contractors and/or labor engaged by Tenant or Landlord or others in
the construction, maintenance and/or operation of the Building or any part
thereof.
13.2 LIENS. In no event shall any Encumbered Material (hereinafter
defined) be incorporated in or added to the Premises, so as to become a fixture
or otherwise a part of the Building, in connection with any Alteration. For
purposes hereof, "ENCUMBERED MATERIAL" shall mean any material or equipment
which is subject to any lien, charge, mortgage or other encumbrance of any kind
whatsoever (other than pursuant to Section 4.4 above) or is subject to any
security interest or any form of title retention agreement not approved by
Landlord in advance in writing which approval may be given or withheld in
Landlord's sole discretion. No Alterations shall be undertaken or begun by
Tenant until (i) Tenant has made provision for written waiver of liens from all
Contractors for such Alteration and taken other appropriate protective measures
approved and/or required by Landlord; (ii) Tenant has procured appropriate
surety payment and performance bonds which shall name Landlord as an additional
obligee and has filed xxxx xxxx(s) (in jurisdictions where available) on behalf
of such Contractors; and (iii) plans and specifications prepared by and at the
expense of Tenant have been submitted to and approved by Landlord where
Landlord's approval is required hereunder. Any mechanic's lien filed against the
Premises or the Building for work claimed to have been done for, or materials
claimed to have been furnished to, Tenant shall be discharged by Tenant within
ten (10) days after Tenant's receipt of notice of the filing thereof, at
Tenant's expense by filing the bond required by law or otherwise. If Tenant
fails so to discharge any lien, Landlord may do so at Tenant's expense and
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any expense or cost incurred by Landlord in
so doing, together with interest at the Default Rate until paid in full, within
ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice therefor.

or caused by dampness, vandalism, malicious mischief or by any other cause of
whatever nature, unless caused by or due to the negligence or willful misconduct
of any of the Landlord Parties, and then, where notice and an opportunity to
cure are appropriate (i.e., where Tenant has an opportunity to know or should

sentence), covering all risks of direct physical loss or damage and so-called
"extended coverage" risks; and (b) commercial general liability insurance
against claims of bodily injury, personal injury and property damage arising out

similar property would carry or as otherwise required by any Mortgagee. The
foregoing insurance may be maintained in the form of a blanket policy covering
the Building and/or the other Condominium units as well as other properties
owned by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
15.8, Landlord shall have the right, at any time during the term hereof, to
self-insure all or any portion of the coverages required by
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-30-

against the other and its agents, officers, servants, partners, shareholders, or
employees (collectively, the "RELATED PARTIES") for any loss or damage that may
occur to or within the Premises, the Building or the Condominium or any
improvements thereto, or any personal property of such party therein, by reason
of fire, the elements, or any other cause of origin, which is insured against
under any property insurance policy actually being maintained from time to time,
even if not required hereunder, or which would be insured against under the
terms of any insurance policy required to be carried or maintained hereunder,
whether or not such insurance coverage is actually being maintained and
regardless of the cause or origin, including, in every instance, negligence by
the other party hereto and/or its Related Parties. With respect to such portion
of the term during which Landlord elects to self-insure under Section 15.8
above, then for purposes of this Section 15.9 and Article 18 hereof, Landlord
shall be deemed to have maintained fire and all-risk coverage in an amount equal
to the full insurable value of the Building. The foregoing waiver shall apply to
the extent of any amount that would have been recoverable under such deemed
coverage. Landlord and Tenant each agree to cause appropriate clauses to be
included in their property insurance policies necessary to implement the
foregoing provisions.
16. ASSIGNMENT, MORTGAGING AND SUBLETTING
16.1 Except as otherwise set forth herein, Tenant shall not, without
Landlord's prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Landlord's
sole discretion, assign, sublet, mortgage, license, transfer or encumber the
Lease or the Premises in whole or in part whether by changes in the ownership or
control of Tenant, or any direct or indirect owner of Tenant, whether at one
time or at intervals, by sale or transfer of stock, partnership or beneficial
interests, operation of law or otherwise (each of the foregoing, a "TRANSFER").
Any purported Transfer made without Landlord's approval, if required hereunder,
shall be void and confer no rights upon any third person, provided that if there
is a Transfer, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may collect
rent from the transferee without waiving the prohibition against Transfers,
accepting the transferee, or releasing Tenant from full performance under the
Lease. In the event of any Transfer in violation of this Article 16, Landlord
shall have the right to terminate the Lease upon thirty (30) days' written
notice to Tenant within sixty (60) days after written notice from Tenant to
Landlord of any Transfer, or within one (1) year after Landlord first learns of
the Transfer if no notice is given. No Transfer shall relieve Tenant of its
primary obligation as party-Tenant hereunder, nor shall it reduce or increase
Landlord's obligations under the Lease.
16.2 LANDLORD'S RECAPTURE RIGHT
(a) Subject to Sections 16.2(c) and 16.5 below, Tenant shall, prior
to offering or advertising the Premises or any portion thereof for a Transfer,
give a written notice (the "RECAPTURE NOTICE") to Landlord which: (i) states
that Tenant desires to make a Transfer, (ii) identifies the affected portion of
the Premises (the "RECAPTURE PREMISES"), (iii) identifies the period of time
(the "RECAPTURE PERIOD") during which Tenant proposes to sublet the Recapture
Premises or to assign its interest in the Lease, and (iv) offers to Landlord to
terminate the Lease with respect to the Recapture Premises (in the case of a
proposed assignment of Tenant's interest in the Lease or a subletting for the
remainder of the term of the Lease) or to suspend the term of the Lease for the
same period of time as the Recapture Period (i.e. the term of the Lease in
respect of the Recapture Premises shall be terminated during the Recapture
Period and Tenant's rental obligations shall be reduced in proportion to the
ratio of the total rentable area of the Recapture Premises to the total rentable
area of the Premises then demised to

Tenant). Landlord shall have fifteen (15) business days within which to respond
to the Recapture Notice.
(b) If Tenant does not enter into a Transfer on the terms and
conditions contained in the Recapture Notice on or before the date which is one
hundred eighty (180) days after the earlier of: (x) the expiration of the
15-business day period specified in Section 16.2(a) above or (y) the date that
Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord will not accept Tenant's offer contained
in the Recapture Notice, then prior to entering into any Transfer after such
180-day period, Tenant must deliver to Landlord a new Recapture Notice in
accordance with Section 16.2(a) above
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be obligated to
give Landlord a Recapture Notice if: (i) Tenant occupies at least fifty-one
percent (51%) of the Premises both before and after the proposed Transfer; or
(ii) the total term of the proposed Transfer is equal to or less than two (2)
years and will commence on or before the date which is two (2) years prior to
the expiration of the then- current term.
(d) In the event that Landlord notifies Tenant that it accepts the
offer contained in any Recapture Notice delivered by Tenant to Landlord on or
before the date which is five (5) years after the Rent Commencement Date, and
provided that (i) there is not an Event of Default nor an event which with the
giving of notice and/or the passage of time would constitute an Event of Default
on the date of such notification and on the date on which such reimbursement is
due, and (ii) Tenant has submitted to Landlord a reasonably detailed invoice
satisfactory to Landlord indicating the cost of such improvements and the
amortization thereof, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the unamortized cost
of improvements made by Tenant to the Recapture Premises at Tenant's sole cost
and expense (i.e. not reimbursed by Landlord pursuant to the terms hereof).
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if
Landlord notifies Tenant that it accepts the offer contained in the Recapture
Notice, Tenant shall have the right, for a period of fifteen (15) days following
receipt of such notice from Landlord, to notify Landlord in writing that it
wishes to withdraw such offer and this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect.
16.3 STANDARD OF CONSENT TO TRANSFER. If Landlord does not timely give
written notice to Tenant accepting a Recapture Offer or declines to accept the
same, then Landlord agrees that, subject to the provisions of this Article 16,

on the terms contained in the Recapture Notice, to an entity which, in
Landlord's reasonable opinion: (i) has a net worth and other financial
indicators sufficient to meet Tenant's obligations hereunder; (ii) has a
business reputation compatible with the operation of a first class office,
research, development, laboratory and retail building; and (iii) whose intended
use is consistent with the Permitted Uses hereunder and does not violate any
exclusive or restrictive use provisions of any leases then in effect with
respect to space in the Condominium.
16.4 LOCKOUT PERIOD. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
contained, Tenant shall have not have the right to deliver a Recapture Notice
nor to make any Transfer with respect to any portion of the 4th Floor Premises
prior to the date ("LOCKOUT EXPIRATION DATE") that is the earlier of (i) one (1)
year after the Rent Commencement Date, and (ii) the date when Buildings 100,
300, 600 and 700 are one hundred percent (100%) leased.
16.5 EXCEPTIONS TO REQUIREMENT FOR CONSENT. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein contained, Tenant shall have the right, without obtaining
Landlord's consent and without giving Landlord a Recapture Offer or to wait
until the Lockout Expiration Date, to make a Transfer to (a) an

independently bound by and upon all the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions
and conditions set forth in the Lease on the part of Tenant to be performed, and
whereby such Affiliated Entity or Successor, as the case may be, shall expressly
agree that the provisions of this Article 16 shall, notwithstanding such
Transfer, continue to be binding upon it with respect to all future Transfers
(an "ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT"). For the purposes hereof, an "AFFILIATED ENTITY"
shall be defined as any entity (a) that has a net worth at least equal to the
greater of the net worth of Tenant (i) on the Execution Date and (ii)
immediately prior to the Transfer; and (b) which is controlled by, is under
common control with, or which controls Tenant. For the purposes hereof, a

worth at least equal to the greater of the net worth of Tenant (x) on the
Execution Date and (y) immediately prior to the Transfer.
16.6 TENANT AS PARTNERSHIP. If Tenant is an individual who uses and/or
occupies the Premises with partners, or if Tenant is a partnership, then: (a)
each present and future partner shall be personally bound by and upon all of the
covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions set forth in the Lease
on the part of Tenant to be performed; and (b) in confirmation of the foregoing,
Landlord may (but without being required to do so) request (and Tenant shall
duly comply) that Tenant, at the time that Tenant admits any new partner to its
partnership, shall require each such new partner to execute an agreement in form
and substance satisfactory to Landlord whereby such new partner shall agree to
be personally bound by and upon all of the covenants, agreements, terms,
provisions and conditions of the Lease on the part of Tenant to be performed,
without regard to the time when such new partner is admitted to partnership or
when any obligations under any such covenants, etc., accrue.
16.7 LISTING CONFERS NO RIGHTS. The listing of any name other than that
of Tenant, whether on the doors of the Premises or on the Building directory, or
otherwise, shall not operate to vest in any such other person, firm or
corporation any right or interest in the Lease or in the Premises or be deemed
to effect or evidence any consent of Landlord, it being expressly understood
that any such listing is a privilege extended by Landlord revocable at will by
written notice to Tenant.

incurred by Tenant in connection therewith, in excess of Rent hereunder as if
such amount were originally called for by the terms of this Lease as additional
rent.
16.9 PROHIBITED TRANSFERS. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this
Lease, Tenant shall have no right to make a Transfer unless on both (i) the date
on which Tenant notifies Landlord of its intention to enter into a Transfer and

exists. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant agrees
that in no event shall Tenant make a Transfer to any of the following entities:

Condominium unless the tenant, subtenant or occupant is seeking expansion space

land adjacent to the Premises or shall be authorized to be made, Tenant shall
afford to the person or entity causing or authorized to cause such excavation,
license to enter upon the Premises for the purpose of doing such work as said
person or entity shall deem necessary to preserve the Building from injury or
damage and to support the same by proper foundations without any claims for
damages or indemnity against Landlord, or diminution or abatement of rent.
17.3 ACCIDENTS TO SANITARY AND OTHER SYSTEMS. Tenant shall give to
Landlord prompt notice of any fire or accident in the Premises or in the
Building and of any damage to, or defective condition in, any part or
appurtenance of the Building including, without limitation, acid waste
neutralization systems, sanitary, electrical, ventilation, heating and air
conditioning or other systems located in, or passing through, the Premises.
Except as otherwise provided in Article 18, and subject to Tenant's obligations
in Article 14, such damage or defective condition shall be remedied by Landlord
with reasonable diligence, but subject to Section 15.9 above, if such damage or
defective condition was caused by any of the Tenant Parties, the cost to remedy
the same shall be paid by Tenant.
17.4 SIGNS, BLINDS AND DRAPES. Tenant will not place or suffer to be
placed or maintained on the exterior of the Premises, or any part of the
interior visible from the exterior thereof, any sign, banner, advertising matter
or any other thing of any kind (including, without limitation, any hand-lettered
advertising), and will not place or maintain any decoration, letter or
advertising matter on the glass of any window or door of the Premises without
first obtaining Landlord's written approval. No signs or blinds may be put on or
in any window or elsewhere if visible from the exterior of the Building.
Landlord shall provide Tenant with the building standard blinds for each window
within the Premises and Tenant shall install the same at Tenant's sole cost and
expense. Tenant may not remove the building standard blinds without Landlord's
prior written consent. Tenant may hang its own drapes, provided that they shall
not in any way interfere with the building standard drapery or blinds or be
visible from the exterior of the Building and that such drapes are so hung and
installed such that when drawn, the building standard drapery or blinds are
automatically also drawn.
17.5 ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. Tenant shall at any time and from time to time
upon not less than fifteen (15) days' prior notice from Landlord, execute,
acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying that the
Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been
modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating
the modifications), and the dates to which Rent has been paid in advance, if
any, stating whether or not Landlord is in default in performance of any
covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition contained in the Lease and, if
so,
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-34-
specifying each such default, and such other facts as Landlord may reasonably
request, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant hereto may
be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of the Building or of any interest
of Landlord therein, any Mortgagee or prospective Mortgagee thereof, any lessor
or prospective lessor thereof, any lessee or prospective lessee thereof, or any
prospective assignee of any mortgage thereof. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE WITH
RESPECT TO ANY SUCH REQUESTED CERTIFICATE, Tenant hereby acknowledging the
importance of such certificates in mortgage financing arrangements, prospective
sales and the like.
17.6 PROHIBITED MATERIALS AND PROPERTY; ENVIRONMENTAL PROVISIONS.
(a) Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of
Landlord, bring or permit to be brought or kept in or on the Premises or
elsewhere in the Building or the Condominium (i) any inflammable, combustible or
explosive fluid, material, chemical or substance (except for standard office
supplies stored in proper containers); and (ii) any Hazardous Material
(hereinafter defined) other than the types of Hazardous Materials listed on
EXHIBIT 13 attached hereto ("TENANT'S HAZARDOUS MATERIALS"), provided that the
same shall at all times be brought upon, kept or used in so-called 'control
rooms' and in accordance with all applicable Environmental Laws (hereinafter
defined) and prudent environmental practice and (with respect to medical waste
and so-called "biohazard" materials) good medical practice. Tenant shall be
responsible for assuring that all laboratory uses are adequately and properly
vented. On or before each anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date, and on any
earlier date during the 12-month period on which Tenant intends to add a new
Hazardous Material to the list of Tenant's Hazardous Materials, Tenant shall
submit to Landlord an updated list of Tenant's Hazardous Materials for
Landlord's review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant shall have no more than one (1) control
room on each floor of the Premises. In no event shall the quantity of any of
Tenant's Hazardous Materials on any floor of the Premises exceed Tenant's
Proportionate Share of Hazardous Materials for such floor at any one time
without Landlord's prior written consent. For purposes hereof, "TENANT'S
PROPORTIONATE SHARE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS" shall mean Tenant's proportionate
share (calculated by dividing the number of rentable square feet on each floor
of the Premises by the total number of rentable square feet on such floor) of
the amount of each of Tenant's Hazardous Materials allowed to be brought or kept
on such floor (as constructed and configured pursuant to the provisions hereof
and without the construction of a so-called 'explosion room', the parties hereby
acknowledging that the Building was not designed to allow for the construction
of any explosion rooms) by Environmental Laws. Landlord shall have the right,
from time to time, upon twenty four (24) hours' advance written notice (except
that no notice shall be required in an emergency), to inspect the Premises for
compliance with the terms of this Section 17.6 at Tenant's sole cost and
expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any of Tenant's
Hazardous Materials which Tenant does not properly handle, store or dispose of
in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws (hereinafter defined),
prudent environmental practice and (with respect to medical waste and so-called
"biohazard materials) good medical practice, Tenant shall, upon written notice
from Landlord, no longer have the right to bring such material into the Building
or the Condominium until Tenant has demonstrated, to Landlord's reasonable
satisfaction, that Tenant has implemented programs to thereafter properly
handle, store or dispose of such material.
(b) Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall comply with (i) all
laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations of any local, state or federal
governmental authority having jurisdiction concerning environmental, health and
safety matters, including, without limitation, the laws listed in Section
17.6(c) below (collectively, "ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS"), including but not limited to
any discharge into the air, surface, water, sewers, soil or groundwater of any
Hazardous Material, whether within or outside the Premises, Building,
Condominium or Parking Garage, and (ii) any rules, requirements and safety
procedures of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, the City
of Cambridge
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-35-
Fire Xxxxxxxx and any insurer of the Condominium, Building or the Premises with
respect to the use, storage and disposal of any Hazardous Materials at or from
the Premises.
(c) As used herein, the term "HAZARDOUS MATERIAL" means (x) medical
waste or "biohazard" materials, and (y) any hazardous, radioactive or toxic
substance, material or waste or petroleum derivative which is or becomes
regulated by any Environmental Law. The term "HAZARDOUS MATERIAL" includes,
without limitation, any material or substance which is (i) designated as a
"hazardous substance" pursuant to Section 1311 of the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act (33 U.S.C. Section 1317), (ii) defined as a "hazardous waste"
pursuant to Section 1004 of the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act,
42 U.S.C. Section 6901 et seq. (42 U.S.C. Section 6903), or (iii) defined as a
"hazardous substance" pursuant to Section 101 of the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq. (42
U.S.C. Section 9601), or (iv) defined as "hazardous substance" or "oil" under
Chapter 21E of the General Laws of Massachusetts.
(d) Tenant shall procure and maintain at its sole expense such
additional insurance as may be necessary to comply with any Legal Requirements
and will deliver certificates of such insurance to Landlord evidencing the
foregoing.
(e) Any increase in the premium for necessary insurance on the
Premises or the Condominium, to the extent such increase arises from Tenant's
use and/or storage of Tenant's Hazardous Materials, shall be at Tenant's
expense. Tenant shall procure and maintain at its sole expense such additional
insurance as may be necessary to comply with any requirement of any Federal,
State or local government agency with jurisdiction.
(f) If any Mortgagee or governmental authority requires testing to
determine whether there has been any release of Hazardous Materials and such
testing is required as a result of the acts or omissions of any of the Tenant
Parties, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand, as additional rent,
for the reasonable costs thereof, together with interest at the Default Rate
until paid in full. Tenant shall execute affidavits, certifications and the
like, as may be reasonably requested by Landlord from time to time concerning
Tenant's best knowledge and belief concerning the presence of Hazardous
Materials in or on the Premises, the Building or the Condominium.
(g) Tenant hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and
hold the Landlord Indemnitees harmless from and against any and all Claims
against any of the Landlord Indemnitees arising out of contamination of any part
of the Condominium or the Parking Garage or other adjacent property, which
contamination arises as a result of: (i) the presence of Hazardous Material in
the Premises, the presence of which is caused by any act or omission of any of
the Tenant Parties, or (ii) from a breach by Tenant of its obligations under
this Section 17.6. This indemnification of the Landlord Indemnitees by Tenant
includes, without limitation, reasonable costs incurred in connection with any
investigation of site conditions or any cleanup, remedial, removal or
restoration work required by any federal, state or local governmental agency or
political subdivision because of Hazardous Material present in the soil or
ground water on or under the Building based upon the circumstances identified in
the first sentence of this Section 17.6(g). The indemnification and hold
harmless obligations of Tenant under this Section 17.6(g) shall survive the
expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease. Without limiting the
foregoing, if the presence of any Hazardous Material in the Building or
otherwise in the Condominium is caused by any of the Tenant Parties and results
in any contamination of any part of the Condominium or the Parking Garage or any
adjacent property, Tenant shall promptly take all actions at Tenant's sole cost
and expense as are necessary to return the Condominium, Building and/or the
Parking Garage or any adjacent property to their condition immediately prior
thereto, provided that Tenant shall first obtain Landlord's approval of such
actions, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-36-
conditioned or delayed so long as such actions, in Landlord's reasonable
discretion, would not potentially have any adverse effect on the Condominium,
and, in any event, Landlord shall not withhold its approval of any proposed
actions which are required by applicable Environmental Laws.
(h) Prior to bringing any Hazardous Material into any part of the
Condominium, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the following information with
respect thereto: (a) a description of handling, storage, use and disposal
procedures; (b) all plans or disclosures and/or emergency response plans which
Tenant has prepared, including without limitation Tenant's Spill Response Plan,
and all plans which Tenant is required to supply to any governmental agency or
authority pursuant to any Environmental Laws; and (c) other information
reasonably requested by Landlord.
17.7 LEGAL REQUIREMENTS. Tenant shall be responsible at its sole cost and
expense for complying with (and keeping the Building and the Premises in
compliance with) all Legal Requirements which are applicable to Tenant's
particular use or occupancy of, or Tenant's Work or Alterations made by Tenant
to, the Premises. In addition, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole expense, for so
long as the Parking and Traffic Demand Management Plan dated May 9, 1999 as
approved by the City of Cambridge on July 9, 1999 (and subject to the conditions
set forth in such approval) remains applicable to the Condominium, offer to
subsidize mass transit monthly passes for all of its employees and otherwise
cooperate with Landlord in encouraging employees to seek alternate modes of
transportation. If Tenant receives notice of any violation of Legal Requirements
applicable to the Premises, it shall give prompt notice thereof to Landlord.
Nothing contained in this Section 17.7 shall be construed to expand the uses
permitted hereunder beyond the Permitted Uses. Landlord shall comply with any
Legal Requirements and with any direction of any public office or officer
relating to the maintenance or operation of the Building as a combination
office/laboratory building, and the costs so incurred by Landlord shall be
included in Building Operating Costs in accordance with the provisions of
Article 10.
17.8 TENANT'S ACTS--EFFECT ON INSURANCE. Tenant shall not do or permit to
be done any act or thing upon the Premises or elsewhere in the Building which
will invalidate or be in conflict with any insurance policies covering the
Building, any other building within the Condominium and the fixtures and
property therein; and shall not do, or permit to be done, any act or thing upon
the Premises which shall subject Landlord to any liability or responsibility for
injury to any person or persons or to property by reason of any business or
operation being carried on upon said Premises or for any other reason. If by
reason of the failure of Tenant to comply with the provisions hereof the
insurance rate applicable to any policy of insurance shall at any time
thereafter be higher than it otherwise would be, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord
for that part of any insurance premiums which shall have been charged because of
such failure by Tenant.
18. CASUALTY; TAKING
18.1 DAMAGE. If the Premises become untenantable in whole or part because
of fire or other casualty covered by insurance required under the Lease or
actually carried ("CASUALTY"), or as the result of a taking of, or damage to,
the Building, thereon in connection with the exercise of any power of eminent
domain, condemnation, or purchase under threat or in lieu thereof (any of the
foregoing, a "TAKING"), then unless the Lease is terminated in accordance with
Section 18.2 below, Landlord, with reasonable dispatch shall restore the
Building and/or the Premises as applicable in the manner set forth herein. In
the event of a Casualty or Taking, Landlord shall repair the Building and the
Premises so that the Building and the Premises are in substantially the same
condition as following completion of Landlord's Work as set forth in Section
4.1, or in the event of a partial Taking which affects the Building and the
Premises, restore the remainder of the Building and the Premises not so Taken to
substantially the same condition as is reasonably feasible. If, in Landlord's
reasonable judgment, any element of the
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-37-
Tenant-Insured Improvements can more effectively be repaired as an integral part
of Landlord's repair work to the Building or the Premises, such repair shall
also be made by Landlord, but at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Landlord shall
substantially complete such repair within one (1) year with respect to
substantial reconstruction of at least 50% of the Building, or, within one
hundred eighty (180) days in the case of restoration of less than 50% of the
Building from the date of said Casualty or Taking. Landlord's obligation to
repair shall be subject to rights of Mortgagees, Legal Requirements, zoning
laws, and building codes then in existence and to delays for adjustment of
insurance proceeds or Taking awards, as the case may be, and instances of
Landlord's Force Majeure. Tenant agrees to cooperate with Landlord in such
manner as Landlord may reasonably request to assist Landlord in collecting
insurance proceeds due in connection with any Casualty which affects the
Premises or the Building. In no event shall Landlord be required to expend more
than the Net (hereinafter defined) insurance proceeds Landlord receives for
damage to the Premises and/or the Building or the Net Taking award attributable
to the Premises and/or the Building. "NET" means the insurance proceeds or
Taking award actually paid to Landlord (and not paid over to a Mortgagee) less
all costs and expenses, including adjusters and attorney's fees, of obtaining
the same. Tenant also shall be required to pay to Landlord Tenant's Percentage
Share of any deductible under any property insurance policy maintained by
Landlord (but only to the extent not already accounted for in Building Operating
Costs). Under no circumstances shall Landlord be required to repair any damage
to, or make any repairs to or replacements of, Tenant's Property.
18.2 TERMINATION RIGHTS.
(a) LANDLORD'S TERMINATION RIGHTS. Landlord may terminate the Lease
upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Tenant:
(i) if the cost to repair the Premises or Building in the
event of a Casualty or Taking exceeds $750,000 or the same is not covered by
insurance maintained by Landlord;
(ii) if any material portion of the Building or any material
means of access thereto is subject to a Taking; or
(iii) if more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Building
is damaged by any Casualty.
(b) TENANT'S TERMINATION RIGHT. If Landlord is so required but
fails to complete restoration of the Premises within the time frames set forth
in Section 18.1 above, subject to Landlord's Force Majeure and Tenant Delay,
then Tenant may terminate the Lease upon thirty (30) days' written notice to
Landlord; provided, however, that if Landlord completes such restoration within
said 30-day period, such termination notice shall be null and void and the Lease
shall continue in full force and effect.
(c) EITHER PARTY MAY TERMINATE. In the case of any Casualty or
Taking affecting the Premises and occurring during the last twelve (12) months
of the term hereof, then (i) if such Casualty or Taking to the Premises results
in more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the floor area of the Premises being
unsuitable for the Permitted Uses, or (ii) the damage to the Premises costs more
than $50,000 to repair, then either Landlord or Tenant shall have the option to
terminate the Lease upon thirty (30) days' written notice to the other;
provided, however, that Tenant shall have the right to nullify Landlord's
termination notice under this Section 18.2(c) by sending written notice to
Landlord exercising its right to extend the term hereof, if any, pursuant to
Article 25 below.
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-38-
(d) AUTOMATIC TERMINATION. In the case of a Taking of the entire
Premises, then this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the date of
possession by the Taking authority.
18.3 ABATEMENT. If the Premises are untenantable in whole or in part as a
result of Casualty or Taking, the Yearly Rent and payments of Building Operating
Costs and Taxes payable hereunder during the period in which they are
untenantable shall be equitably reduced or abated.
18.4 TAKING FOR TEMPORARY USE. Subject to Section 18.3 above, if the
Premises are Taken for temporary use, the Lease and Tenant's obligations,
including without limitation the payment of Rent, shall continue. For purposes
hereof, a "Taking for temporary use" shall mean a Taking of ninety (90) days or
less.
18.5 DISPOSITION OF AWARDS. Except for any separate award for Tenant's
movable trade fixtures, relocation expenses, and unamortized leasehold
improvements (provided that the same may not reduce Landlord's award), all
Taking awards to Landlord or Tenant shall be Landlord's property without
Tenant's participation. Tenant may pursue its own claim against the Taking
authority.
19. DEFAULT
19.1 EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES. The occurrence of any one or more of
the following events shall constitute an "EVENT OF DEFAULT" hereunder by Tenant:
(a) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of Rent or any other
payment required hereunder, as and when due, where such failure shall continue
for a period often (10) days after notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant;
provided, however, an Event of Default shall occur hereunder without any
obligation of Landlord to give any notice if Landlord has given Tenant written
notice under this Section 19.1(a) on more than one (1) occasion during the
twelve (12) month interval preceding such failure by Tenant;
(b) If Tenant shall abandon the Premises (whether or not the keys
shall have been surrendered or the rent shall have been paid);
(c) If Tenant shall fail to maintain any insurance required
hereunder;
(d) If Tenant shall fail to deliver a replacement Letter of Credit
as required under Article 24 below;
(e) If Tenant causes or suffers any release of Hazardous Materials
in or near the Condominium;
(f) If Tenant shall make a Transfer in violation of the provisions
of Article 16 above, or if any event shall occur or any contingency shall arise
whereby the Lease, or the term and estate thereby created, would (by operation
of law or otherwise) devolve upon or pass to any person, firm or corporation
other than Tenant, except as expressly permitted under Article 16 hereof;
(g) If Tenant shall fail to deliver an estoppel certificate as
required pursuant to Section 17.5 above;
(h) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the
covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant,
other than as specified above, and such failure continues for more than thirty
(30) days after notice thereof from Landlord; provided, further, that if the
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-39-
nature of Tenant's default is such that more than thirty (30) days are
reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in
default if Tenant shall commence such cure within said thirty (30) day period
and thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion, which completion
shall occur not later than ninety (90) days from the date of such notice from
Landlord;
(i) Tenant shall be involved in financial difficulties as evidenced
by an admission in writing by Tenant of Tenant's inability to pay its debts
generally as they become due, or by the making or offering to make a composition
of its debts with its creditors;
(j) an attachment on mesne process, on execution or otherwise, or
other legal process shall issue against Tenant or its property and a sale of any
of its assets shall be held thereunder;
(k) any judgment, attachment or the like in excess of $75,000 shall
be entered, recorded or filed against Tenant in any court, registry, etc. and
Tenant shall fail to pay such judgment within forty five (45) days after the
judgment shall have become final beyond appeal or to discharge or secure by
surety bond such lien, attachment, etc. within forty five (45) days of such
entry, recording or filing, as the case may be;
(l) the leasehold hereby created shall be taken on execution or by
other process of law and shall not be revested in Tenant within thirty (30) days
thereafter;
(m) a receiver, sequesterer, trustee or similar officer shall be
appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction to take charge of all or any part
of Tenant's property and such appointment shall not be vacated within thirty
(30) days; or
(n) any proceeding shall be instituted by or against Tenant
pursuant to any of the provisions of any Act of Congress or State law relating
to bankruptcy, reorganizations, arrangements, compositions or other relief from
creditors, and, in the case of any proceeding instituted against it, if Tenant
shall fail to have such proceedings dismissed within thirty (30) days or if
Tenant is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent as a result of any such proceeding.
Upon an Event of Default, Landlord may, by notice to Tenant, elect to terminate
the Lease; and thereupon (and without prejudice to any remedies which might
otherwise be available for arrears of Rent or preceding breach of covenant or
agreement and without prejudice to Tenant's liability for damages as hereinafter
stated), upon the giving of such notice, the Lease shall terminate as of the
date specified therein as though that were the Expiration Date. Without being
taken or deemed to be guilty of any manner of trespass or conversion, and
without being liable to indictment, prosecution or damages therefor, Landlord
may, forcibly if necessary, enter into and upon the Premises (or any part
thereof in the name of the whole); repossess the same, as of its former estate;
and expel Tenant and those claiming under Tenant. Wherever "Tenant" is used in
subsections (h), (i), (j), (k), (l), (m), and (n) of this Section 19.1, it shall
be deemed to include any parent entity of Tenant and any guarantor of any of
Tenant's obligations under the Lease. The words "re-entry" and "re-enter" as
used in the Lease are not restricted to their technical legal meanings.
19.2 DAMAGES - TERMINATION.
(a) Upon the termination of the Lease under the provisions of this
Article 19, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Rent up to the time of such
termination, shall continue to be liable for any preceding breach of covenant,
and in addition, shall pay to Landlord as damages, at the election of Landlord,
either:
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-40-
(i) the amount by which, at the time of the termination of
the Lease (or at any time thereafter if Landlord shall have initially elected
damages under Section 19.2(a)(ii), below), (x) the aggregate of Rent projected
over the period commencing with such termination and ending on the Expiration
Date, exceeds (y) the aggregate projected rental value of the Premises for such
period; or
(ii) amounts equal to Rent which would have been payable by
Tenant had the Lease not been so terminated, payable upon the due dates therefor
specified herein following such termination and until the Expiration Date,
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if Landlord shall re-let the Premises during such period,
that Landlord shall credit Tenant with the net rents received by Landlord from
such re-letting, such net rents to be determined by first deducting from the
gross rents as and when received by Landlord from such re-letting the expenses
incurred or paid by Landlord in terminating the Lease, as well as the expenses
of re-letting, including altering and preparing the Premises for new tenants,
brokers' commissions, and all other similar and dissimilar expenses properly
chargeable against the Premises and the rental therefrom, it being understood
that any such re-letting may be for a period equal to or shorter or longer than
the remaining term of the Lease; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that (x) in no event
shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of such net rents over the sums
payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder and (y) in no event shall Tenant be
entitled in any suit for the collection of damages pursuant to this Section
19.2(a)(ii) to a credit in respect of any net rents from a re-letting except to
the extent that such net rents are actually received by Landlord prior to the
commencement of such suit. If the Premises or any part thereof should be re-let
in combination with other space, then proper apportionment on a square foot area
basis shall be made of the rent received from such re-letting and of the
expenses of re-letting.
(b) In calculating the amount due under Section 19.2(a)(i), above,
there shall be included, in addition to the Yearly Rent, Tenant's Percentage
Share of Taxes and Building Operating Costs and all other considerations agreed
to be paid or performed by Tenant, on the assumption that all such amounts and
considerations would have remained constant (except as herein otherwise
provided) for the balance of the full term hereby granted.
(c) Suit or suits for the recovery of such damages, or any
installments thereof, may be brought by Landlord from time to time at its
election, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require Landlord to
postpone suit until the date when the term of the Lease would have expired if it
had not been terminated hereunder.
(d) Nothing herein contained shall be construed as limiting or
precluding the recovery by Landlord against Tenant of any sums or damages to
which, in addition to the damages particularly provided above, Landlord may
lawfully be entitled by reason of any Event of Default hereunder.
(e) In lieu of any other damages or indemnity and in lieu of full
recovery by Landlord of all sums payable under all the foregoing provisions of
this Section 19.2, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, at any time after
the Lease is terminated under any of the provisions herein contained or is
otherwise terminated for breach of any obligation of Tenant and before such full
recovery, elect to recover, and Tenant shall thereupon pay, as liquidated
damages, an amount equal to the aggregate of (x) an amount equal to the lesser
of (1) Rent accrued under the Lease in the nine (9) months immediately prior to
such termination, or (2) Rent payable during the remaining months of the term if
the Lease had not been terminated, plus (y) the amount of Rent accrued and
unpaid at the time of termination, less (z) the amount of any recovery by
Landlord under the foregoing provisions of this Section 19.2 up to the time of
payment of such liquidated damages.
(f) Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate any damages
hereunder
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-41-
following the termination of this Lease under this Article 19. The obligation of
Landlord to use reasonable efforts to mitigate damages shall not be construed to
require Landlord to rent all or any portion of the Premises for a use which, or
to a tenant who, would not meet the requirements of Article 16 with respect to a
proposed transferee, or to prioritize the renting of the Premises over other
space which Landlord may have available in the Building, the Condominium or in
other properties owned by Landlord.
19.3 LANDLORD'S SELF-HELP; FEES AND EXPENSES.
(a) LANDLORD'S SELF-HELP. If Tenant shall default in the
performance of any covenant on Tenant's part to be performed in the Lease
contained, including without limitation the obligation to maintain the Premises
in the required condition pursuant to Section 14.1 above, Landlord may, after
the expiration of the applicable grace period provided in Section 19.1 above, if
any (except that no notice and/or grace period shall be required in an
emergency), immediately, or at any time thereafter, without notice, perform the
same for the account of Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand
therefor any costs incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with
interest at the Default Rate until paid in full.
(b) REIMBURSEMENT OF FEES AND EXPENSES. If Landlord at any time is
compelled to pay or elects to pay any sum of money, or do any act which will
require the payment of any sum of money, by reason of the failure of Tenant to
comply with any provision hereof after expiration of the applicable notice and
cure periods, if any, or if Landlord is compelled to or does incur any expense,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, in instituting, prosecuting, and/or
defending any action or proceeding instituted by reason of any default of Tenant
hereunder, Tenant shall on demand pay to Landlord by way of reimbursement the
sum or sums so paid by Landlord with all costs and damages, plus interest at the
Default Rate until paid in full. In addition, Tenant shall pay all of Landlord's
costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees,
incurred (i) in enforcing any obligation of Tenant under the Lease or (ii) as a
result of Landlord or any of the Landlord Indemnitees, without its fault, being
made party to any litigation pending by or against any of the Tenant Parties.
19.4 WAIVER OF REDEMPTION, STATUTORY NOTICE AND GRACE PERIODS. Tenant
does hereby waive and surrender all rights and privileges which it might have
under or by reason of any present or future Legal Requirements to redeem the
Premises or to have a continuance of the Lease for the term hereby demised after
being dispossessed or ejected therefrom by process of law or under the terms of
the Lease or after the termination of the Lease as herein provided. Except to
the extent prohibited by Legal Requirements, any statutory notice and grace
periods provided to Tenant by law are hereby expressly waived by Tenant.
19.5 LANDLORD'S REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE. The specified remedies to which
Landlord may resort hereunder are cumulative and are not intended to be
exclusive of any remedies or means of redress to which Landlord may at any time
be lawfully entitled, and Landlord may invoke any remedy (including the remedy
of specific performance) allowed at law or in equity as if specific remedies
were not herein provided for.
19.6 NO WAIVER. Landlord's failure to seek redress for violation, or to
insist upon the strict performance, of any covenant or condition of the Lease,
or any of the Rules and Regulations promulgated hereunder, shall not prevent a
subsequent act, which would have originally constituted a violation, from having
all the force and effect of an original violation. The receipt by Landlord of
Rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of the Lease shall not be
deemed a waiver of such breach. The failure of Landlord to enforce any of such
Rules and Regulations against Tenant and/or any other tenant in the
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-42-
Building shall not be deemed a waiver of any such Rules and Regulations. No
provisions of the Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by either party
unless such waiver be in writing signed by such party. No payment by Tenant or
receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated shall be
deemed to be other than on account of the stipulated Rent, nor shall any
endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or
payment as Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept
such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the
balance of such Rent or pursue any other remedy in the Lease provided.
20. SURRENDER; ABANDONED PROPERTY; HOLD-OVER
20.1 SURRENDER.
(a) Upon the expiration or other termination of the term hereof,
Tenant shall (i) peaceably quit and surrender to Landlord the Premises and all
Tenant's Work and Alterations thereto, broom clean, in good order, repair and
condition (except as provided herein and in Section 8.5 and Article 18)
excepting only ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire or other Casualty; (ii)
remove any and all Hazardous Materials, all of Tenant's Property and, to the
extent specified by Landlord but subject to the terms of Article 12 above, all
Alterations made by Tenant and Tenant's Removable Property, and (iii) repair any
damages to the Premises or the Building caused by the installation or removal
thereof. Tenant's obligations under this Section 20.1 (a) shall survive the
expiration or other termination of the Lease.
(b) No act or thing done by Landlord during the term hereby demised
shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement
to accept such surrender shall be valid, unless in writing signed by Landlord.
Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, no employee of Landlord or of
Landlord's agents shall have any power to accept the keys of the Premises prior
to the termination of the Lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of
Landlord or of Landlord's agents shall not operate as a termination of the Lease
or a surrender of the Premises.
20.2 ABANDONED PROPERTY. After the expiration or earlier termination
hereof, if Tenant fails to remove any property from the Building or the Premises
which Tenant is obligated by the terms of this Lease to remove within fifteen
(15) days after written notice from Landlord, such property (the "ABANDONED
PROPERTY") shall be conclusively deemed to have been abandoned, and may either
be retained by Landlord as its property or sold or otherwise disposed of in such
manner as Landlord may see fit. If any item of Abandoned Property shall be sold,
Tenant hereby agrees that Landlord may receive and retain the proceeds of such
sale and apply the same, at its option, to the expenses of the sale, the cost of
moving and storage, any damages to which Landlord may be entitled under Article
19 hereof or pursuant to law, and to any arrears of Rent.
20.3 HOLDOVER. If any of the Tenant Parties holds over after the end of
the term hereof, such party shall, prior to Landlord's acceptance of Rent, be a
tenant-at-sufferance, and, after Landlord's acceptance of Rent, be a
tenant-at-will subject to the provisions of this Lease insofar as the same may
be made applicable to a tenancy-at-will; provided that whether or not Landlord
has accepted Rent, (i) Tenant shall pay Yearly Rent at 150% of the highest rate
of Yearly Rent payable during the term hereof. In addition, in the event Tenant
holds over for a period in excess of thirty (30) days, provided that Landlord
notifies Tenant in writing that it has entered into a lease for the Premises (or
a portion thereof), which notice shall specify a period of not less than
forty-five (45) days after which consequential damages shall commence to accrue
if such holdover continues by Tenant and which notice by Landlord to Tenant may
be given prior to the expiration of said 30-day period, then, Tenant shall be
liable for all actual damages, including without limitation consequential
damages, incurred by Landlord as a result of
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-43-
such holding over.
21. MORTGAGEE RIGHTS
21.1 SUBORDINATION. Tenant's rights and interests under this Lease shall
be (i) subject and subordinate to any future mortgages, deeds of trust,
overleases, or similar instruments covering the Premises and to all advances,
modifications, renewals, replacements, and extensions thereof (each of the
foregoing, a "MORTGAGE"), or (ii) if any Mortgagee elects, prior to the lien of
any present or future Mortgage. Tenant further shall attorn to and recognize any
successor landlord, whether through foreclosure or otherwise, as if the
successor landlord were the originally named landlord, provided such successor
assumes all obligations under the Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Article 21 contained, as to any future Mortgage, the herein
provided subordination and attornment shall be effective only if the Mortgagee
agrees, by a written commercially reasonable instrument in recordable form
("NONDISTURBANCE AGREEMENT") that, as long as Tenant shall not be in default of
the obligations on its part to be kept and performed under the terms of this
Lease, this Lease will not be affected and Tenant's possession and rights
hereunder will not be disturbed by any default in, termination, and/or
foreclosure of, such Mortgage. In no event shall such Mortgagee (i) have any
liability for any act, omission, negligence or default of any prior landlord
(other than to cure defaults of a continuing nature with respect to the
maintenance or repair of the Premises, the Building or the Condominium); (ii) be
bound by any rents paid more than one month in advance to any prior landlord,
(iii) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any
prior landlord under the Lease; (iv) be bound by any modification, amendment,
extension or cancellation of the Lease not consented to in writing by the
Mortgagee; (v) have any liability for indirect or consequential damages; or (vi)
be liable for the Letter of Credit (hereinafter defined) not delivered to
Mortgagee. Furthermore, as to any Event of Default by Tenant under the Lease
existing at the time of foreclosure, such foreclosure shall not operate to waive
or xxxxx any action initiated by any prior landlord under the Lease to terminate
the same on account of such Event of Default. In no event shall the Mortgagee
have any personal liability as successor to Landlord, and Tenant shall look only
to the estate and property of the Mortgagee in the Building and the Condominium
for the satisfaction of Tenant's remedies for the collection of a judgment (or
other judicial process) requiring the payment of money in the event of any
default by Mortgagee as Landlord under the Lease, and no other property or
assets of the Mortgagee shall be subject to levy, execution or other enforcement
procedure for the satisfaction of Tenant's remedies under or with respect to the
Lease.
21.2 NOTICES. Tenant shall give each Mortgagee of which Tenant has
received written notice the same notices given to Landlord concurrently with the
notice to Landlord, and each Mortgagee shall have a reasonable opportunity
thereafter to cure a Landlord default, and Mortgagee's curing of any of
Landlord's default shall be treated as performance by Landlord.
21.3 MORTGAGEE CONSENT. Tenant acknowledges that, where applicable, any
consent or approval hereafter given by Landlord may be subject to the further
consent or approval of a Mortgagee; and the failure or refusal of such Mortgagee
to give such consent or approval shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the Lease contained, constitute reasonable justification for Landlord's
withholding its consent or approval.
22. QUIET ENJOYMENT
Landlord covenants that so long as Tenant keeps and performs each and every
covenant, agreement, term, provision and condition herein contained on the part
and on behalf of Tenant to be kept and performed, Tenant shall peaceably and
quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises during the Term hereof from and
against the claims of all persons lawfully claiming by, through or under
Landlord
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-44-
subject, nevertheless, to the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and
conditions of the Lease, any matters of record or of which Tenant has knowledge
and to any Mortgage to which the Lease is subject and subordinate, as
hereinabove set forth.
23. INTENTIONALLY DELETED
24. LETTER OF CREDIT
24.1 AMOUNT OF LETTER OF CREDIT. Contemporaneously with the execution of
the Lease, Tenant shall deliver an irrevocable letter of credit to Landlord
which shall (i) be in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT 11; (ii) issued by a
bank reasonably acceptable to Landlord upon which presentment may be made in
Boston, Massachusetts (if Landlord so requires at the time of its approval
thereof); and (iii) be for a term of one (1) year, subject to extension in
accordance with the terms hereof (the "LETTER OF CREDIT"). The Letter of Credit
shall be held by Landlord, without liability for interest, as security for the
faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of
the Lease by the Tenant to be kept and performed during the Term. In no event
shall the Letter of Credit be deemed to be a prepayment of Rent nor shall it be
considered a measure of liquidated damages. At least thirty (30) days prior to
the maturity date of the Letter of Credit (or any replacement Letter of Credit),
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit which shall have
a maturity date no earlier than the next anniversary of the Term Commencement
Date or one (1) year from its date of delivery to Landlord, whichever is later.
24.2 If no Event of Default has occurred and no event has occurred which,
with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice, would constitute an Event
of Default at the commencement of such Lease Year, then the face amount of the
Letter of Credit shall be reduced to (a) $1,552,500.00 at the commencement of
the Second Lease Year, and (b) $1,035,000.00 at the commencement of the Third
Lease Year. Upon receipt of a replacement Letter of Credit in the reduced face
amount, Landlord shall return the original Letter of Credit to the issuer
thereof, with a copy to Tenant.
24.3 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS OF LETTER OF CREDIT. Upon an Event of
Default, then Landlord at its sole option may draw down all or a part of the
Letter of Credit to compensate Landlord for loss or damage sustained or suffered
by Landlord due to such breach on the part of Tenant. Should the entire Letter
of Credit, or any portion thereof, be appropriated and applied by Landlord,
Tenant shall, upon the written demand of Landlord, deliver to Landlord a
replacement Letter of Credit in the full original amount, and Tenant's failure
to do so within five (5) days after receipt of such demand shall constitute an
Event of Default hereunder. The application of all or any part of the cash
proceeds of the Letter of Credit to any obligation or default of Tenant under
the Lease shall not deprive Landlord of any other rights or remedies Landlord
may have nor shall such application by Landlord constitute a waiver by Landlord.
24.4 TRANSFER OF LETTER OF CREDIT. In the event that Landlord transfers
its interest in the Premises, Tenant shall, at Tenant's cost subject to
reimbursement by Landlord in accordance with the following sentence, upon notice
from Landlord deliver to Landlord an amendment to the Letter of Credit or a
replacement Letter of Credit naming Landlord's successor as the beneficiary
thereof. Upon receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor, Landlord shall
reimburse Tenant for the cost of the transfer fee charged by the issuer of such
amendment or replacement Letter of Credit up to a maximum of one-quarter (1/4)
of one percent (1%) of the transferred amount thereof. Tenant hereby agrees that
upon any such delivery, Landlord shall be released from any and all liability
with respect to the Letter of Credit, its application and return, and Tenant
shall look solely to Landlord's successor for same. If Tenant fails to deliver
such amendment or replacement within fifteen (15) days after notice from
Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to draw down the entire amount of the
Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-45-
in accordance with this Article 24.
24.5 CREDIT OF ISSUER OF LETTER OF CREDIT. In the event of a material
adverse change in the financial position of any bank or institution which has
issued the Letter of Credit or any replacement Letter of Credit hereunder,
Landlord reserves the right to require that Tenant change the issuing bank or
institution to another bank or institution reasonably approved by Landlord. If
the bank or institution on which the original Letter of Credit or any
replacement Letter of Credit is drawn is declared insolvent or placed into
conservatorship or receivership, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days thereafter,
replace the then-outstanding letter of credit with a like letter of credit from
another bank or institution acceptable to Landlord.
24.6 RETURN OF LETTER OF CREDIT. Should Tenant comply with all of such
terms, covenants and conditions and promptly pay all sums payable by Tenant to
Landlord hereunder, the Letter of Credit shall be returned to Tenant within
thirty-one (31) days following the end of the term of the Lease, less any
portion thereof which may have been utilized by Landlord to cure any default or
applied to any damage suffered by Landlord.
25. TENANT'S OPTION TO EXTEND THE TERM OF THE LEASE
25.1 Provided (a) Tenant, an Affiliated Entity and/or a Successor is/are
then occupying at least fifty one percent (51%) of the Premises; and (b) no
Event of Default has occurred (i) at the time of Tenant's exercise of such
option, and (ii) at the commencement of the Extension Term (hereinafter
defined), Tenant shall have the option to extend the term of the Lease for one
(1) additional five (5) year term (the "EXTENSION TERM"), commencing as of the
expiration of the initial term of the Lease. Tenant may exercise such option to
extend by giving Landlord written notice on or before the date twelve (12)
months prior to the expiration date of the initial term of the Lease, TIME BEING
OF THE ESSENCE. Upon the timely giving of such notice, the term of the Lease
shall be deemed extended upon all of the terms and conditions of the Lease,
except that Yearly Rent shall be calculated in accordance with Section 25.2
below, Landlord shall have no obligation to construct or renovate the Premises
and Tenant shall have no option to further extend the term hereof. If Tenant
fails to give timely notice, as aforesaid, Tenant shall have no further right to
extend the term of the Lease. Notwithstanding the fact that Tenant's exercise of
the herein option to extend the term hereof shall be self-executing, the parties
shall promptly execute a lease amendment reflecting such Extension Term after
Tenant exercises such option. The execution of such lease amendment shall not be
deemed to waive any of the conditions to Tenant's exercise of its rights under
this Article 25.
25.2 (a) The Yearly Rent during the Extension Term (the "EXTENSION TERM
YEARLY RENT") shall be based upon the fair market rental value of the Premises
then demised to Tenant as of the commencement of the Extension Term as
determined in accordance with the process described below, for renewals of space
in the Building of equivalent quality, size, utility and location, with the
length of the Extension Term and the credit standing of Tenant to be taken into
account, provided however, that in no event (including the arbitration procedure
set forth below) shall the sum of Yearly Rent, Tenant's Percentage Share of
Building Operating Costs and Taxes payable by Tenant for any twelve (12) month
period during the Extension Term be less than the sum of Yearly Rent, Tenant's
Percentage Share of Building Operating Costs and Taxes payable by Tenant with
respect to the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the commencement
of the Extension Term. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant's notice
to extend the term hereof, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant written notice of
its determination of the Extension Term Yearly Rent. Tenant shall, within thirty
(30) days after receipt of such notice, notify Landlord in writing whether
Tenant accepts or rejects Landlord's determination of the Extension Term Yearly
Rent ("TENANT'S RESPONSE NOTICE"). If Tenant fails timely to deliver Tenant's
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-46-
Response Notice, Landlord's determination of the Extension Term Yearly Rent
shall be binding on Tenant.
(b) If and only if Tenant's Response Notice is timely delivered to
Landlord and indicates both that Tenant rejects Landlord's determination of the
Extension Term Yearly Rent, and Tenant's submission of the matter to
arbitration, then the Extension Term Yearly Rent shall be determined in
accordance with the procedure set forth in this Section 25.2(b). In such event,
within five (5) days after receipt by Landlord of Tenant's Response Notice
indicating Tenant's desire to submit the determination of the Extension Term
Yearly Rent to arbitration, Tenant and Landlord shall each notify the other, in
writing, of their respective selections of an appraiser (respectively,
"LANDLORD'S APPRAISER" and "TENANT'S APPRAISER"). Landlord's Appraiser and
Tenant's Appraiser shall then jointly select a third appraiser (the "THIRD
APPRAISER"). All of the appraisers selected shall be individuals with at least
five (5) years' commercial appraisal experience in the area in which the
Premises are located, shall be members of the Appraisal Institute (M.A.I.), and,
in the case of the Third Appraiser, shall not have acted in any capacity for
either Landlord or Tenant within five (5) years of his or her selection. The
three appraisers shall determine the Extension Term Yearly Rent in accordance
with the requirements and criteria set forth in Section 25.2(a) above, employing
the method commonly known as BASEBALL ARBITRATION, whereby Landlord's Appraiser
and Tenant's Appraiser each sets forth its determination of the Extension Term
Yearly Rent as defined above, and the Third Appraiser must select between the
two (it being understood that the Third Appraiser shall be expressly prohibited
from selecting a compromise figure). Landlord's Appraiser and Tenant's Appraiser
shall deliver their determinations of the Extension Term Yearly Rent to the
Third Appraiser within ten (10) days of their respective appointments and the
Third Appraiser shall render his or her decision within ten (10) days after
receipt of both of the other two determinations of the Extension Term Yearly
Rent. The Third Appraiser's decision shall be binding on both Landlord and
Tenant. Each party shall bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall share
equally in the cost of the Third Appraiser.
(c) If Tenant's Response Notice indicates Tenant's acceptance of
Landlord's determination of the Extension Term Yearly Rent, or if Tenant fails
to timely send Tenant's Response Notice, Tenant shall be deemed to have duly
exercised its extension option and, on or before the commencement date of the
Extension Term, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease
extending the term on the same terms provided in this Lease, except as follows:
(i) Yearly Rent shall be adjusted to the Extension Term
Yearly Rent (as determined in accordance with this Section 25.2);
(ii) Tenant shall have no right to further extend the term
hereof unless expressly granted by Landlord in writing; and
(iii) Landlord shall lease to Tenant the Premises in their
then-current condition, and Landlord shall not provide to Tenant any allowances
(e.g., moving allowance, construction allowance, and the like) or other tenant
inducements.
26. SIGNAGE
26.1 DIRECTORY SIGNAGE. Landlord shall supply Building standard signage
for Tenant within the directory in the Building lobby at Landlord's sole cost
and expense. The cost to add any names of any approved subtenants or licensees
occupying any portion of the Premises shall be subject to reasonable limits on
the number of lines on the directory Landlord can provide and all such
additional
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-47-
signage in the lobby directory shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense.
26.2 MONUMENT SIGNAGE. In the event that Landlord installs and/or erects
a so-called monument sign outside of the Building, which sign identifies other
tenants of the Building, Tenant shall have the right, during the term hereof, to
be listed thereon.
27. BILLS AND NOTICES
Any notice, consent, request, xxxx, demand or statement hereunder (each, a
"NOTICE") by either party to the other party shall be in writing and, shall be
deemed to have been duly given when either delivered or served personally with
receipt of delivery, delivered via nationally recognized overnight courier with
receipt of delivery, or sent via certified mail, postage prepaid with receipt
requested addressed to Landlord at its address as stated in EXHIBIT 1, with a
copy to Brown, Rudnick, Freed & Gesmer, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000,

address or specify an additional address for such Notices by delivering or
mailing, as aforesaid, to the other party a notice stating the change and
setting forth the changed or additional address, provided such changed or
additional address is within the United States. Notices shall be effective upon
the date of receipt or refusal thereof.

the Lease shall be resolved in accordance with the following procedures:

the dispute. Within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, the receiving

time and place within twenty (20) days of the date of the originating party's
notice (and as often thereafter as they reasonably deem necessary) to exchange
relevant information and to attempt to resolve the dispute.
28.2 MEDIATION. If the matter has not been resolved within thirty (30)
days of the originating party's notice, either party may initiate mediation of
the controversy or claim.
(a) SELECTION OF MEDIATOR. The parties shall seek to identify

the mediator selected pursuant to this Article shall act as the administrator of
the mediation and shall have all of the powers and duties conferred on the AAA
pursuant to said Rules. Any conflicts between said rules and this Article shall
be resolved in favor of this Article. If the parties are unable or fail timely
to agree upon the mediator, upon request of either party, the dispute shall be
submitted for mediation to ENDISPUTE, Inc. or any successor entity. If neither
ENDISPUTE Inc. nor any successor entity exists at the time of the dispute, the
dispute shall be submitted for mediation to the AAA or any successor entity. If
neither the AAA nor any successor entity exists at the time of the dispute, the

Legal Requirements shall not be disclosed to any person or entity, including but
not limited to any arbitrator(s) in a subsequent proceeding, without prior
written permission from both parties. A party offering evidence or information
in mediation shall not be precluded thereby from offering that evidence or
information in any other proceeding.
28.3 ARBITRATION. If the matter has not been resolved pursuant to the
aforesaid mediation procedure within twenty (20) days of the selection of the
mediator, or if either party does not participate in mediation, and the amount
in controversy does not exceed $100,000, either party may initiate binding
arbitration in accordance with the new current ENDISPUTE Comprehensive
Arbitration Rules and Procedures. Any conflicts between said rules and this
Article shall be resolved in favor of this Article 28. If the amount in
controversy exceeds $100,000, the parties may initiate binding arbitration, or
if the parties do not so agree to submit the matter for binding arbitration,
either party may initiate litigation.
(a) SELECTION OF ARBITRATOR(S). Each party shall within ten (10)
days select one impartial and neutral person (a "QUALIFIED NEUTRAL") to act as
an arbitrator. The two selected arbitrators (or either acting singly if a party
has failed timely to appoint a Qualified Neutral) shall, within ten (10) days of
the appointment of the second arbitrator, select a third Qualified Neutral with
at least ten (10) years' experience as an arbitrator, shall not have been
engaged by either party within the previous five (5) years (the "THIRD
ARBITRATOR"), and who shall be the chairperson of the panel. If the arbitrators
selected by the parties are unable or fail to agree upon the Third Arbitrator
within ten (10) days of the appointment of the second arbitrator, the Third
Arbitrator shall be selected by ENDISPUTE, Inc. or any successor entity. If
neither ENDISPUTE, Inc. nor any successor entity exists at the time of the
dispute, the Third Arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA or any successor

and the results of the proceedings, shall be confidential and except as required
by Legal Requirements shall not be disclosed to any person or entity without
prior written permission from both parties to these proceedings. Either party
may, without first obtaining the other party's consent, file dispositive motions
to resolve the dispute prior to a factual hearing, including but not limited to
motions to dismiss, motions to strike, motions for judgment on the pleadings and
motions for summary judgment. Such motions shall be filed and decided in
accordance with the ENDISPUTE Comprehensive Arbitration Rules. A party offering
evidence or information in this arbitration shall not be precluded thereby from
offering that evidence or information in any other proceeding.
(c) AWARD. The arbitrator(s) shall issue a written decision,
stating the reasons for the decision, within twenty-one (21) days of the
termination of the arbitration proceedings. Any such award shall be binding and

jurisdiction, and either parry shall have the right to apply to a court of
competent jurisdiction for a decree, judgment or order upon such award. The
arbitrator(s) shall award to the prevailing party reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs associated with the mediation and arbitration proceedings except as
TOLERRX LEASE / BUILDING 300 / EXECUTION VERSION
-49-
otherwise specifically provided in the Lease.
28.4 INTERIM RELIEF. In any dispute covered by this Article 28, either
party may, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 28, request at
any time a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction from any court
of competent jurisdiction without thereby waiving its other rights under this
Article 28.
28.5 COSTS. For any dispute resolved without the issuance of an arbitral
award, all costs incurred for the services of neutrals under this Article shall
be borne equally by the parties. For any dispute resolved by arbitral award,
such costs shall be borne by the non-prevailing party. If an arbitral award is
issued and the non-prevailing party does not comply with its terms within thirty
(30) days of its issuance or if the non-prevailing party in the arbitration
unsuccessfully challenges the award in court, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection
with the enforcement and/or challenge of the award.
28.6 INDEMNIFICATION. Except as otherwise provided in the Lease, the
parties shall rely solely on the procedures set forth in this Article to resolve
any dispute subject to this Article 28. If either party files an action in
court, or proceeds with litigation that has already been filed, in violation of
the Lease, that party shall indemnify the other party for its costs and
attorneys' fees incurred as a result of such violation.
29. MISCELLANEOUS
29.1 SEPARABILITY. If any provision of the Lease or portion of such
provision or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is for any

and for reference, and in no way define, limit or describe the scope of the

proposed Alterations to be made by Tenant to the Premises or requests by Tenant
for Landlord's consent to make a Transfer. Such costs shall be deemed to be
additional rent under the Lease.
29.8 SURVIVAL. Without limiting any other obligation of Tenant which may
survive the expiration or prior termination of the term of the Lease, all
obligations on the part of Tenant to indemnify, defend, or hold Landlord
harmless, as set forth in the Lease shall survive the expiration or prior
termination of the term of the Lease.

enforce any claim against Landlord or any of the Landlord Indemnitees, or the

or otherwise, other than against Landlord's interest in the Building and the
Condominium and in the uncollected rents, issues and profits thereof, and Tenant
agrees to look solely to such interest for the satisfaction of any liability of
Landlord under the Lease. This Section 29.9 shall not limit any right that
Tenant might otherwise have to obtain injunctive relief against Landlord.
Landlord and Tenant specifically agree that in no event shall Landlord or any of
the Landlord Indemnitees ever be personally liable for any obligation under the
Lease. In no event shall Landlord or any of the Landlord Indemnitees ever be
liable for consequential or incidental damages or for lost profits. If by reason
of Landlord's failure to complete construction of the Building or Premises,
Landlord shall be held to be in breach of the Lease, Tenant's sole and exclusive
remedy shall be as set forth in Article 4 hereof.
29.10 BINDING EFFECT. The covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and
conditions of the Lease shall bind and benefit the successors and assigns of the
parties hereto with the same effect as if mentioned in each instance where a
party hereto is named or referred to, except that no violation of the provisions
of Article 16 hereof shall operate to vest any rights in any successor or
assignee of Tenant.
29.11 SEIZIN OF TITLE. Upon any sale, transfer or other disposition of the
Building, Landlord shall be entirely freed and relieved from the performance and
observance thereafter of all covenants and obligations hereunder on the part of
Landlord to be performed and observed, it being understood and agreed in such
event (and it shall be deemed and construed as a covenant running with the land)
that the person succeeding to Landlord's ownership of said reversionary interest
shall thereupon and thereafter assume, and perform and observe, any and all of
such covenants and obligations of Landlord.
