THIS DEED OF LEASE (this “Lease”) between Landlord and Tenant named in Exhibit 1 is entered into on the Execution Date as stated in Exhibit 1. Landlord hereby demises to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, the Premises upon and subject to the provisions of this Lease.

The Exhibits attached to this Lease are made a part hereof. Any reference in this Lease to any terms defined in any such Exhibit shall have the meaning set forth in such Exhibit.

1.DESCRIPTION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES

1.1Demised Premises. The Premises are that portion of the Building as described in Exhibits 1 and 2, as the same may be changed from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof, and a portion(s) of the Building’s courtyard as set forth in Section 13.2.

1.2Common Area Rights; Shuttle Service. Subject to the Rules and Regulations, Tenantshall have the right, during the Term, to use the Common Areas in common with others entitled to use the same. Common Area parking spaces are available on an unreserved, first-come, first-served basis; Tenant shall have the right to use Common Area parking spaces for no additional charge at a ratio of 2.6 spaces per 1,000 rentable square feet of Premises area, i.e., to use forty-five (45) of those parking spaces shown on Exhibit 4.

Tenant’s employees shall, subject to seating availability, have the right to use the shuttle services provided by Landlord from The Arsenal on the Charles campus to Harvard Square, Back Bay Station, Cleveland Circle, Boston Landing, and South Boston for so long as Landlord provides these shuttle services to its employees; provided that if Landlord charges its employees for shuttle services in the future then Landlord may charge Tenant’s employees the same rate(s).

1.3Exclusions and Reservations. The following are not part of the Premises: all the perimeter walls of the Premises except the inner surfaces thereof, any balconies (except to the extent any balconies are shown as part of the Premises on Exhibit 2), terraces or roofs adjacent to the Premises, and any space in or adjacent to the Premises used for risers, shafts, stacks, pipes, conduits, wires, and appurtenant fixtures, fan rooms, ducts, electric or other utilities, sinks, or other Building facilities. Landlord reserves the right to access and use any of the foregoing, as well as the right to enter the Premises for the purposes of operation, maintenance, and repair, all in accordance with Section 16.

2.PERMITTED USE

Tenant shall use the Premises only for the Permitted Use and for no other purpose. Tenant shall not cause or permit any potentially-harmful air emissions, odors of cooking or other processes, or any unusual or other objectionable odors or emissions to emanate from or permeate the Premises.

- 1 -



 

Prior to the Term Commencement Date, Tenant’s use of the Premises shall be limited to performing Tenant’s Work, installing its equipment, finishes, telephones, telecommunications services, and equipment in the Premises, and for other activities associated with Tenant moving into the Premises.

3.RENT

3.1Payment Obligation. Tenant shall pay: (i) commencing on the Base Rent Commencement Date, Base Rent, in equal monthly installments, in advance by the first calendar day of each month during the Term, and (ii) Tax Excess, Operating Expense Excess, and all other charges due from Tenant to Landlord as set forth herein (collectively “Additional Rent”) to Landlord at Landlord’s Rent Address set forth above (or such other address of which Landlord may advise Tenant in writing), without offset, abatement, deduction, or demand (except as expressly set forth in this Lease). Base Rent shall be equitably pro-rated for any portion of a calendar month, e.g., if the Base Rent Commencement Date is not the first day of a calendar month. Base Rent and Additional Rent are sometimes referred to collectively herein as “Rent”.

3.2Late Payments. Interest shall accrue on any unpaid Rent at the Lease Interest Rate. If any Rent remains outstanding for a period of ten (10) days, Tenant shall pay to the Landlord a late charge equal to five (5%) percent of the amount due for each month or portion thereof during which the arrearage continues.

4.SECURITY DEPOSIT

Upon the execution and delivery of this Lease by both parties, Tenant shall pay the Security Deposit to Landlord. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as a security for Tenant’s performance under this Lease. In no event shall the Security Deposit be deemed to be a prepayment of Rent nor shall it be considered a measure of liquidated damages. No interest shall accrue on the Security Deposit and Landlord shall have no obligation to maintain the Security Deposit in a separate account. If Tenant defaults in any of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall have the right, without prior notice to Tenant, to apply the Security Deposit (or any portion thereof) towards the cure of any such default and Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of demand from Landlord, pay to Landlord any amount so applied by Landlord in order to restore the full amount of the Security Deposit. The application of all or any part of the Security Deposit to any obligation or default of Tenant under this 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. Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days after the later of: (i) the termination of this Lease, and (ii) the date that Tenant vacates and delivers the Premises to Landlord in the condition required pursuant to this Lease, return the Security Deposit to Tenant less any amounts then owed by Tenant to Landlord.

5.TERM AND DELIVERY

5.1Initial Period. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, the initial Term (the “Initial Term”) shall commence on the Term Commencement Date and end the day immediately preceding the fifth anniversary of the Base Rent Commencement Date; except that if the Base Rent Commencement Date is not the first day of a calendar month then the initial Lease Term shall end on the fifth anniversary of the last day of the month of the Base Rent Commencement Date.

5.2Premises Delivery. Landlord shall reasonably attempt to deliver possession of the Premises, with all Building HVAC, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems serving the Premises in good operating condition and repair, on or before September 21, 2018, the anticipated Premises Delivery Date. If Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Premises to the Tenant on or before the anticipated Premises Delivery Date or thereafter for any reason, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability, claims, or damages for failure to give possession on said date and this Lease shall not be terminated or terminable by reason of such delay unless such delay continues beyond October 21, 2018, in which event one (1) day’s Base Rent shall be abated for each day the Premises Delivery Date is delayed beyond October 21, 2018. If Landlord has not delivered the Premises by November 21, 2018, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving not less than ten (10) days’ notice to Landlord, provided that any such notice must be delivered before Landlord has delivered the Premises. Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord for all losses, costs, damages, and claims including reasonable attorneys’ fees arising out of any delays, damages to the Premises or the Property, or other matters arising out of Tenant’s access to the Premises or the Property prior to the Term Commencement Date, and shall present Landlord with satisfactory certificates of insurance in the amounts set forth herein as a condition and prerequisite to gaining such access.

5.3Extension Option. Provided that, at the time of each such exercise, (i) this Lease is still in full force and effect, (ii) Tenant has not subleased or assigned any portion of the Premises except for a sublease or assignment to a Permitted Transferee (as defined in Section 14.2), or a sublease or assignment with Landlord’s approval, (iii) no Default of Tenant shall be continuing, (iv) there shall be no Default of Tenant on the date on which an Extension Term would otherwise commence; and (v) not more than two (2) Defaults of Tenant have occurred during the then current Initial Term or Extension Term, Tenant shall have the right and option to extend the Term of this Lease for two (2) extended terms of three (3) years each (the “Extension Terms”). The extension right is personal to the Tenant originally identified herein or to a Permitted Transferee who occupies the entire Premises, and may not be otherwise assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, separate from, or as part of, the Lease. Any Extension Term shall commence on the day immediately succeeding the expiration date of the Initial Term or the preceding Extension Term, as the case may be, and shall end on the day immediately preceding the third anniversary of the first day of such Extension Term 

- 3 -



 

and Tenant shall accept the Premises at the beginning of any Extension Term in its then “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition and, accordingly, and Landlord shall not be required to perform any improvements to the Premises. Tenant shall exercise such option to extend by giving written notice to Landlord of its desire to do so not more than twelve (12) nor less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or the initial Extension Term, as the case may be. The giving of such notice of extension by Tenant (provided that the preconditions to such extension right set forth above are satisfied) shall automatically extend the Term of this Lease for the applicable Extension Term, and no instrument of renewal or extension need be executed. If Tenant fails to give such notice to Landlord, this Lease shall automatically terminate at the end of the Initial Term or the preceding Extension Term, as applicable, and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Lease. Any Extension Term shall be on all the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that during the second Extension Term, Tenant shall have no right to further extend the Term of this Lease. Upon request of either party, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment of this Lease confirming the exercise of this extension right, but the failure to so request or execute such amendment shall not impact or invalidate the exercise of this extension right. Tenant’s Base Rent during any Extension Term shall be ninety-five percent (95%) of the Fair Market Rental Rate for the Premises, determined as set forth below.


	
 
	
(a)
	
“Fair Market Rental Rate” shall be determined as of the date in question to be the then current annual base rental charge using the then-current Tax Base and Operating Base, taking into account concessions such as rental abatement, tenant improvements and allowances, leasing commissions, and provisions for subsequent increases and other adjustments for renewal leases or agreements to lease then currently being negotiated or executed for comparable space located in comparable office buildings located in the Watertown, Massachusetts, provided however, that in no event shall the sum of annual Base Rent, Operating Expense Excess and Tax Excess payable by Tenant for any twelve (12) month period during the Extension Term be less than the ninety-five percent (95%) of the sum of annual Base Rent, Operating Expense Excess and Tax Excess payable by Tenant in respect of the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the commencement of the Extension Term. In determining Fair Market Rental Rate, all relevant factors shall be taken into account and given effect.




- 4 -



 


	
 
	
(b)
	
Landlord shall initially designate Fair Market Rental Rate by written notice (“Landlord’s Designation”) to Tenant, provided that in no event shall Landlord be obligated to designate Fair Market Rental Rate more than ten (10) months before the expiration of the then-current term hereof. If Tenant disagrees with Landlord’s Designation, Tenant shall have the right, by written notice given within thirty (30) days after Tenant has received Landlord’s Designation, to submit such Fair Market Rental Rate to arbitration (the “Arbitration Notice”). Fair Market Rental Rate shall be submitted to arbitration as follows: Landlord and Tenant shall attempt, in good faith, to reach an agreement as to the Fair Market Rental Rate of the Premises for the Extension Term. If the parties have failed to agree in writing upon the Fair Market Rental Rate within thirty (30) days after delivery of Landlord’s Designation, then the Fair Market Rental Rate shall be determined as follows: a senior officer of a nationally recognized leasing brokerage firm with local knowledge of the Watertown, Massachusetts commercial office leasing market (the “Baseball Arbitrator”) shall be selected and paid for jointly by Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Baseball Arbitrator, then the same shall be designated by the Greater Boston Real Estate Board or any successor organization thereto (the “GBREB”). The Baseball Arbitrator selected by the parties or designated by the GBREB shall (y) have at least ten (10) years’ experience in the leasing of commercial office space in the Watertown, Massachusetts leasing market and (z) not have been employed or retained by either Landlord or Tenant or an affiliate of either for a period of at least two (2) years prior to appointment pursuant hereto. Each of Landlord and Tenant shall submit to the Baseball Arbitrator and to the other party the submitting party’s determination of the Fair Market Rental Rate. The Baseball Arbitrator shall grant to Landlord and Tenant a hearing and the right to submit evidence. The Baseball Arbitrator shall determine which of the two (2) Fair Market Rental Rate determinations more closely represents the actual Fair Market Rental Rate. The Baseball Arbitrator may not select any other Fair Market Rental Rate for the Premises other than one submitted by Landlord or Tenant. The Fair Market Rental Rate selected by the Baseball Arbitrator shall be binding and conclusive, and judgment upon the award or decision of the Baseball Arbitrator may be entered in the appropriate court of law; and the parties consent to the jurisdiction of such court and further agree that any process or notice of motion or other application to the Court or a Judge thereof may be served outside the Commonwealth of Massachusetts by certified mail or by personal service, provided a reasonable time for appearance is allowed. If the dispute between




- 5 -



 

the parties as to a Fair Market Rental Rate has not been resolved before the commencement of Tenant’s obligation to pay rent based upon such Fair Market Rental Rate, then Tenant shall pay annual Base Rent and other charges under the Lease in respect of the Premises in question based upon the average of Fair Market Rental Rate designated by Landlord and Tenant to the Baseball Arbitrator until either the agreement of the parties as to the Fair Market Rental Rate, or the decision of the Baseball Arbitrator, as the case may be, at which time Tenant shall pay any underpayment of rent and other charges to Landlord, or Landlord shall refund any overpayment of rent and other charges to Tenant. If Tenant does not timely submit an Arbitration Notice, then Fair Market Rent shall be as designated by Landlord.

6.CONDITION OF PREMISES

6.1Condition of Premises. Except to the extent modified by Landlord’s express agreement in Section 5.2 of this Lease or in this Section 6.1, the Premises is being leased “AS IS, WHERE IS” with Tenant accepting all defects, if any; and Landlord makes no warranty of any kind, express or implied, with respect to the Premises, the Building, or The Arsenal on the Charles (without limitation, Landlord makes no warranty as to the habitability, fitness, or suitability of the Premises for a particular purpose, nor as to compliance with any Laws, nor as to the presence or absence of any Hazardous Materials). Tenant acknowledges that it has been given the opportunity to inspect, and to have qualified experts inspect, the Premises (including without limitation the Building’s HVAC and MEP systems serving the Building’s Common Areas and the Premises) prior to the execution of this Lease and has either performed the same to its satisfaction or waived such right. To the best of Landlord’s knowledge, as of the Execution Date, the Building and the Premises are in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12101 et seq., as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, the regulations promulgated by the Massachusetts Architectural Access Board, 521 CMR 1.000, and all other applicable laws and regulations governing access to and use of facilities by persons with disabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.1, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s expense (which may be included in Operating Costs to the extent permitted under Article 8 hereof), (i) comply with the orders and regulations of all governmental authorities with respect such laws and regulations applicable to the Common Areas and any work performed by or on behalf of Landlord to the Building’s Common Areas, and (ii) correct any violations of such laws and regulations with respect to the Premises or the Building’s Common Areas, provided that Landlord’s obligation shall be limited to violations that are not triggered by (x) Tenant’s specific use of the Premises or (y) Tenant’s Work (as defined in Section 6.2).

- 6 -



 

6.2Tenant Improvement Allowance. Landlord shall, as set forth below, contribute up to Eighty-Six Thousand, Four Hundred Ninety Dollars ($86,490.00) (i.e., $5.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises) (“Tenant’s Improvement Allowance”) towards the cost of the initial leasehold improvements to be installed by Tenant in the Premises (“Tenant’s Work”). Tenant’s Work shall be performed in accordance with Articles 12 and 13 hereof. If Tenant’s Improvement Allowance will not be sufficient to complete Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall pay the excess costs, prior to Landlord’s disbursing Tenant’s Improvement Allowance to Tenant.


	
 
	
(a)
	
Provided that Tenant is not in default of any of its obligations under this Lease when Tenant submits any Requisition (defined below) seeking to draw on Tenant’s Improvement Allowance, Landlord shall pay the cost of the work shown on each Requisition submitted by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s receipt thereof. If Tenant is prevented from receiving payment of a Requisition based upon Tenant’s default, Tenant shall have the right, so long as the Lease is in full force and effect, and Tenant is in full compliance with its obligations under the Lease, to resubmit such Requisition after Tenant cures such default. For the purposes hereof, a “Requisition” shall mean written documentation showing in reasonable detail the costs of the improvements then installed by Tenant in the Premises. Each Requisition shall be accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that all work covered by previous Requisitions has been fully paid by Tenant. Landlord shall have the right, upon reasonable advance notice to Tenant, to inspect Tenant’s books and records relating to each Requisition to verify the amount thereof. Tenant shall submit Requisition(s) no more frequently than monthly.





	
 
	
(b)
	
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained:





	
 
	
(i)
	
Landlord shall have no obligation to advance funds on account of Tenant’s Improvement Allowance unless and until Landlord has received the Requisition in question, together with certifications from Tenant’s architect, certifying that the work shown on the Requisition has been performed in accordance with all Laws and in accordance with Tenant’s approved plans, and written lien waivers from Tenant’s contractor and any subcontractors or materialmen for work performed to date.





	
 
	
(ii)
	
Landlord shall pay Tenant’s Improvement Allowance to Tenant if and to the extent the same is due and payable in accordance with the provisions hereof.




- 7 -



 


	
 
	
(iii)
	
Landlord shall have no obligation to pay Tenant’s Improvement Allowance in respect of any Requisition submitted after the latter of (i) May 31, 2019 or (ii) seven (7) months after the Premises Delivery Date.





	
 
	
(iv)
	
Tenant shall not be entitled to any unused portion of Tenant’s Improvement Allowance.





	
 
	
(c)
	
Except for Tenant’s Improvement Allowance and Tenant’s HVAC Reimbursement (as defined in Section 6.4), Tenant shall bear all other costs of Tenant’s Work. 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, selected by Tenant in connection with Tenant’s Work.




6.3Plans and Specifications. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the preparation of the final architectural, electrical, and mechanical construction drawings, plans, and specifications (“plans”) necessary to construct the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy, which plans shall be subject to approval by Landlord’s architect and engineers and shall comply with their reasonable requirements to avoid aesthetic or other conflicts with the design and function of the balance of the Building. 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. Landlord’s architects and engineers shall respond to any plan submission by Tenant within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s receipt thereof. If Landlord’s architect’s or engineers’ approval of Tenant’s plans is withheld or conditioned, Landlord shall send written notification thereof to Tenant and include a reasonably detailed statement identifying the reasons for such refusal or condition, and Tenant shall promptly have the plans revised by its architect to incorporate all reasonable objections and conditions presented by Landlord and shall resubmit such plans to Landlord. Such process shall be followed until the plans shall have been approved by Landlord’s architect and engineers without unreasonable objection or condition. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall be responsible for all elements of the design of Tenant’s plans (including, without limitation, compliance with Law, functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the Premises and the placement of Tenant’s furniture, appliance, and equipment), and Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for such design. Tenant agrees to remain solely responsible for the timely preparation and submission of all such plans and for all elements of the design of such plans and for all costs related thereto. (As used in this Article 6, “architect” as shall include any interior designer or space planner.) Tenant shall select a general contractor and subcontractors subject to Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

- 8 -



 

6.4Replacement of Courtyard HVAC Units. Tenant’s plans shall include replacement of the four (4) courtyard Trane packaged HVAC units (the “HVAC Units”) and the replacement of the HVAC Units shall be included in Tenant’s Work. Tenant shall ensure that Landlord has approved the manufacturer and specifications of the HVAC Units (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) prior to purchasing, and shall assign the warranties for the HVAC Units and any related equipment to Landlord upon receipt of Tenant’s HVAC Reimbursement. Upon Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of documentation of the cost of purchasing and installing the HVAC Units, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for such documented costs by a rent credit spread in equal amounts over three (3) months, subject to a reimbursement cap of one hundred twenty-four thousand dollars ($124,000.00) (“Tenant’s HVAC Reimbursement”).

7.TAX EXCESS

7.1Definitions. (a) “Taxes” shall be defined as all real estate taxes and other taxes, levies and assessments now or hereinafter imposed upon the Building and the Property; service or user payments in lieu of taxes; and any and all other taxes, levies, betterments, assessments, and charges arising from the ownership, leasing, operating, use, or occupancy of the Building or based upon rentals derived therefrom. Betterments and special assessments shall be included in Taxes only to the extent such betterments and assessments (plus any interest accruing thereof) are payable during and in respect of the Term as if paid over the longest period permitted by Law. Taxes shall not include any gift, inheritance, franchise, rental, income, or profit tax, capital levy, or excise taxes. (b) “Tax Year” shall be defined as any fiscal tax year commencing as of July 1 and ending as of the following June 30.

7.2Payment of Tax Excess. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional Rent, Tenant’s Share (“Tax Excess”) of the amount by which Taxes for any Tax Year during the Term exceed the Tax Base. Tax Excess shall be pro-rated with respect to any partial Tax Year occurring included in the Term. If Landlord obtains an abatement of Taxes for any Tax Year in respect of which Tenant pays Tax Excess, Landlord shall promptly refund Tenant’s Share of such abatement to Tenant, net of any reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in obtaining such abatement; provided, however, in no event shall the amount refunded to Tenant exceed the actual amount of Tax Excess paid by Tenant to Landlord in respect of the Tax Year for which such abatement is obtained. If Landlord shall so elect, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at the same time and in the same manner that Base Rent is payable under this Lease, monthly payments on account of Tax Excess for any Tax Year as reasonably estimated by Landlord. Within thirty (30) days after the actual amount of Taxes is determined for each Tax Year, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement setting forth the actual amount of Taxes for such Tax Year and reconciling the amount of Tax Excess payable and/or paid by Tenant for such Tax Year. If Tenant has underpaid Tax Excess for such Tax Year, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days of billing, pay such underpayment to Landlord, and if Tenant overpaid for such Tax Year, Tenant shall be credited with such overpayment against the next installment(s) of

7.3Survival. The obligations of each party under this Section 7 shall survive termination of this Lease.

8.OPERATING EXPENSE EXCESS

(b) “Permitted Capital Amortization” shall be defined as the cost of any capital expenditure made by Landlord which is required by Law which first becomes effective and applicable to the Property after the Execution Date, or which is reasonably projected by Landlord to achieve savings in the amount of Operating Expense Excess payable by Tenant (excluding, however, capital expenditures made to replace any item at the end of its useful life), amortized over the useful life of the capital item, together with interest at a market rate of interest at the time that Landlord makes such capital expenditure. Permitted Capital Amortization shall not be included in the Operating Base.

8.2Payment of Operating Expense Excess. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional Rent, Tenant’s Share (“Operating Expense Excess”) of the amount by which Operating Expenses for any calendar year during the Term exceed the Operating Base. Operating Expense Excess shall be pro-rated with respect to any partial calendar year occurring included in the Term. To the extent the Building is less than one hundred percent (100%) occupied during calendar year 2019, the Operating Base shall be grossed up to reflect a fully-occupied Building; to the extent the Property is less than ninety-five percent occupied during calendar year 2019, the Operating Base shall be grossed up to reflect ninety-five percent (95%) occupancy of the Property. If Landlord shall so elect, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at the same time and in the same manner that Base Rent is payable under this Lease, monthly payments on account of Operating Expense Excess for any calendar year as reasonably estimated by Landlord. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement (“Year End Statement”) setting forth, in reasonable detail, the actual amount of Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord for such calendar year, and reconciling the amount of Operating Expense Excess payable by Tenant for such calendar year. If Tenant has underpaid Operating Expense Excess for such calendar year, Tenant shall, within thirty 

- 10 -



 

(30) days of billing, pay such underpayment to Landlord, and if Tenant overpaid for such calendar year, Tenant shall be credited with such overpayment against the next installment(s) of Base Rent and other charges payable under this Lease, except that if such overpayment is determined after the termination of this Lease, Landlord shall promptly refund any such overpayment to Tenant, less any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord.

8.3Excluded Expenses. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall Operating Expenses include any of the following costs (“Excluded Expenses”): (i) marketing costs, brokerage commissions and concessions, and leasehold improvement costs incurred in connection with the leasing of any rentable space at the Property; (ii) debt service; (iii) attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with lease negotiations, disputes with individual tenants, and/or for the existence, maintenance, or non-Property related operations of the legal entity or entities of which Landlord is comprised or the development of additional space at the Property; (iv) the existence, maintenance, or non-Property related operations of the legal entity or entities that Landlord comprises; (v) the cost of any special work or service performed for any tenant (including Tenant) billable to such tenant or any costs in connection with services or benefits that are provided to or for the particular benefit of other tenants but not offered to Tenant; (vi) the cost of any repairs or restoration required because of fire, other casualty, or taking, provided however, that Operating Expenses may include costs of repairs which are not covered under Landlord’s casualty insurance as a result of a commercially reasonable deductible(s) carried by Landlord; (vii) any expenses for repairs or maintenance to the extent covered by warranties; (viii) any cost that Tenant pays for directly; (ix) the cost of removing or remediating Hazardous Materials from the Property; (x) any amounts paid to a person, firm, corporation, or other entity under common ownership and control with Landlord that is in excess of a commercially reasonable amount paid on a market rate basis; (xi) depreciation of the Property or any part thereof; (xii) accounting and bookkeeping services to the extent not allocable to the Property; (xiii) any compensation paid to personnel in retail concessions operated by Landlord and any subsidies or concessions to third parties operating retail concessions at the Property; (xiv) salaries, bonuses, and benefits of officers, executives of Landlord, and administrative employees above the grade of property manager; (xv) all capital improvements or expenditures, including, without limitation, expenditures made to replace items at the ends of their useful lives, except for Permitted Capital Amortization; (xvi) items for which Landlord is actually reimbursed by tenants (other than through general operating expense provisions) or other third parties, and (xvii) Tenant’s HVAC Reimbursement.

8.4Tenant’s Audit Right. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.4, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s cost, to examine all documentation and calculations prepared in the determination of Operating Expense Excess:


	
 
	
(a)
	
Upon request made by Tenant within sixty (60) days after receipt of any Year End Statement, provide that Tenant has paid any Operating Expense Excess then owed and due, Tenant may exercise Tenant’s audit right by giving Landlord written notice (the “Audit Request”).




- 11 -



 


	
 
	
(b)
	
Such documentation and calculations shall be made available to Tenant at the offices where Landlord keeps such records, during normal business hours, within a reasonable time after Landlord receives an Audit Request. Landlord shall notify Tenant when such documents and calculations are available for audit.





	
 
	
(c)
	
Such audit may be made only by a nationally- or regionally-recognized, independent certified public accounting firm (a “Major CPA Firm”), or by another certified public accounting firm reasonably approved by Landlord, in either case licensed to do business in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Without limiting Landlord’s approval rights, Landlord may withhold its approval of any examiner of Tenant who is representing, or in the case of an examiner other than a Major CPA Firm has within the last two (2) years prior to Tenant’s request represented, any other tenant of the Property or of any building owned by Landlord or an affiliate of Landlord. In no event shall Tenant use any examiner who is being paid by Tenant on a contingent fee basis.





	
 
	
(d)
	
As a condition to performing any such audit, Tenant and its examiner(s) shall execute and deliver to Landlord an agreement, in form acceptable to Landlord, agreeing to keep confidential any information discovered during the audit about Landlord, the Building, or the Property in connection with such audit. Without limiting the foregoing any other examiner other than a Major CPA Firm shall be required to agree that it will not represent any other tenant of the Property or of any building owned by Landlord or an affiliate of Landlord.





	
 
	
(e)
	
The audit shall be commenced within thirty (30) days after Landlord notifies Tenant that such documents and calculations are available for audit, and shall be concluded within sixty (60) days of its commencement. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a written report (the “Audit Report”) from its examiner summarizing the results of the audit not later than the earlier of (a) five (5) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Report and (b) ninety-five (95) days after Landlord delivers the Documentation Availability Notice (the earlier of such dates, the “Report Due Date”).




- 12 -



 


	
 
	
(f)
	
If Tenant delivers the Report to Landlord on or before the Report Due Date, any overpayments or underpayments of Operating Expense Excess revealed by such audit shall be adjusted promptly by the parties. If such audit reveals an overpayment by Tenant in excess of five percent (5%) of the Operating Expense Excess owed by Tenant for the year in question, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of the audit.





	
 
	
(g)
	
If, after the Audit with respect to any calendar year, it is finally determined that: (a) Tenant has made an overpayment on account of Operating Costs Excess, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against the next installment(s) of Rent thereafter payable by Tenant, except that if such overpayment is determined after the termination or expiration of the Term, Landlord shall promptly refund to Tenant the amount of such overpayment less any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord; or (b) Tenant has made an underpayment on account of Operating Costs Excess, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days of such determination, pay such underpayment to Landlord.





	
 
	
(h)
	
Time is of the essence of the provisions of this Section 8.4. If Tenants fail to give Landlord the Audit Request or the Audit Report by the deadlines set forth in this Section 8.4, then Tenant shall have no further right to question said Operating Expense Excess Costs, and the amounts shown on Landlord’s Year End Statement shall be final as between the parties.




8.5Survival. The obligations of each party under this Section 8 shall survive termination of this Lease.

If the entire Premises have not been rendered untenantable by the Service Failure, the amount of abatement under either Section 9.4(a) or 9.4(b) shall be equitably prorated. (c) If the Premises, or a material portion of the Premises, are made untenantable for a period in excess of sixty (60) days as a result of a Service Failure, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days prior notice to Landlord; provided however, that if Landlord cures such condition on or before the date thirty (30) days after it receives such notice, then Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease based upon such Service Interruption.

Without limitation, Landlord may withhold its consent if the proposed transferee is an occupant of the Property, unless Landlord cannot satisfy the needs of such proposed assignee or sublessee with respect to the size of the premises sought to be leased by such proposed assignee or sublessee or the term of occupancy, or if the proposed transferee, whether or not an occupant of the Building, is then in discussions with Landlord regarding the leasing of space at the Property, unless Landlord cannot satisfy the needs of such proposed assignee or sublessee with respect to the size of the premises sought to be leased by such proposed assignee or sublessee or the term of occupancy.

Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its reasonable attorneys’ fees for Landlord’s review of any requested Transfer other than a Permitted Transfer.

14.2Permitted Transfers. Tenant may, without obtaining Landlord’s consent: (i) assign this Lease to a Permitted Tenant Successor (defined below), and (ii) assign this Lease or sublet all or a portion of the Premises to an Affiliate (defined below), (each a “Permitted Transfer”), provided that: (a) Tenant must give Landlord notice at least ten (10) days prior to such Transfer and (b) in the case of an assignment to a Permitted Tenant Successor, the Credit Requirement (defined below) must be satisfied. Tenant’s notice to Landlord shall include information and documentation reasonably acceptable to Landlord evidencing the Permitted Transfer and showing that each of the above conditions has been satisfied. If requested by Landlord, Tenant’s successor shall, unless the Permitted Transfer is effected as a matter of law (e.g., in the case of a statutory merger) sign and deliver to Landlord an assumption agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord.

The “Credit Requirement” shall be deemed satisfied if, as of the date immediately following the date of the Transfer, the Permitted Tenant Successor has a net worth at least equal to the net worth of Tenant immediately prior to such Transfer.

14.3Landlord’s Recapture Right. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to Tenant’s commencement of any marketing of all or part of the Premises for possible assignment or for a possible sublease to anyone other than a Permitted Transferee, Tenant shall give notice (the “Recapture Offer”) to Landlord offering to terminate this Lease (in the case of a proposed assignment of this Lease or a sublease for the balance of the Term, including extension options), or offering to suspend the Term with respect to the portion (the “Recapture Premises”) for the proposed term (the “Recapture Term”) of the sublease (including the approximate date of commencement of the Recapture Term), as the case may be. In either case, the effective date of recapture shall be the estimated date of commencement of the Recapture Term, as set forth in the Recapture Offer. Landlord may accept the Recapture Offer by giving notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives the Recapture Offer. If Landlord timely accepts a Recapture Offer: (i) the parties shall promptly execute a written agreement confirming Landlord’s acceptance of the Recapture Offer (the parties confirming that, with respect to a recapture of only a portion of the Premises, Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be appropriately prorated to reflect the reduction of the Premises during the Recapture Term), provided however, that the execution of such agreement shall not be a condition to the exercise by Landlord of its recapture right), and (ii) Landlord shall be responsible for any costs made necessary by the exercise by Landlord of its recapture right (including, without limitation, demising work and work necessary in connection with the operation of utilities). If Landlord does not timely accept a Recapture Offer, then Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Section 14 (including Landlord’s right of approval), have the right to assign its interest in this Lease or sublease the Recapture Premises for the approximate Recapture Term, except that if Tenant does not enter into a Transfer consistent with the Recapture Offer within nine (9) months of the date of Landlord’s receipt of a Recapture Offer, then Tenant shall be required, as a condition to entering into any Transfer, to again give Landlord a Recapture Offer in accordance with this Section 14.3.

14.4Transfer Profit. Except in connection with Permitted Transfers, Tenant shall pay Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the amount by which all Rent and other consideration which Tenant receives as a result of a Transfer exceeds the sum of: (i) of the Rent payable to Landlord for the portion of the Premises and Term covered by the Transfer, plus (ii) Transaction Costs, as hereinafter defined, plus (iii) any portion of the Rent or other consideration received by Tenant and attributable solely to the transferee or assignee’s use of Tenant’s equipment, furnishings, or fixtures 

- 19 -



 

installed at Tenant’s expense. Tenant shall pay Landlord for Landlord’s share of the excess within 30 days after Tenant’s receipt of the excess. “Transaction Costs” shall be defined as the costs for brokerage, tenant improvements and allowances, legal, and design costs actually incurred by Tenant in good faith in connection with such Transfer (which Tenant shall have the right to recover before any payment is due to Landlord pursuant to this Section 14.4). If there is an Event of Default, Landlord may require that all sublease payments be made directly to Landlord, in which case Tenant shall receive a credit against Rent in the amount of Tenant’s share of payments received by Landlord.

15.SUBORDINATION

This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to any and all mortgages, deeds of trust, and other instruments in the nature of a mortgage, now or at any time hereafter, a lien or liens on the Property, and Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of receipt of written request from Landlord, promptly execute and deliver such commercially reasonable written instruments as shall be necessary to show the subordination of this Lease to said mortgages, deeds of trust, or other such instruments in the nature of a mortgage. For any mortgages, ground leases, and/or underlying lease or deeds of trust with respect to the Building and/or the Property, Landlord will obtain from any mortgagee, ground lessor, or trustee therein, as the case may be, a written instrument in recordable form, in the customary form of such mortgagee, ground lessor, or trustee (“Nondisturbance Agreement”), stating 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, Tenant’s possession hereunder will not be disturbed by any default in, termination, and/or foreclosure of, such mortgage, ground lease, and/or underlying lease or deed of trust, as the case may be, provided that Tenant shall agree to attorn such mortgagee, ground lessor, or trustee. Tenant shall be responsible for paying any fees or expenses charged by such mortgagee, ground lessor, or trustee, or otherwise incurred by Landlord, in connection with such Nondisturbance Agreement. Landlord represents that there is no existing mortgage, deed of trust, or ground lease affecting the Premises.

16.LANDLORD’S ACCESS

Landlord or agents of Landlord may, at reasonable times, enter to view the Premises and may remove placards and signs not approved and affixed as herein provided, and make repairs and alterations as Landlord is required or may elect to do. If Tenant has an extension option which lapses unexercised, or at any time on or after the date three (3) months before the expiration of Tenant’s second extension option, Landlord may show the Premises to others and may affix to any suitable part of the Premises a notice for letting or selling the Premises or the Property and keep the same so affixed without hindrance or molestation. Except in emergencies and normal cleaning and maintenance operations, Landlord shall give Tenant reasonable notice prior to exercising any right of entry in the Premises; and, in exercising any right which Landlord has to enter the Premises, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with Tenant’s Permitted Use of the Premises.

Landlord and Tenant shall each, within ten (10) business days after receipt of a written request from the other, execute and deliver a commercially reasonable estoppel certificate to those parties as are reasonably requested by the other (including a mortgagee or prospective purchaser). Without limitation, such estoppel certificate may include a certification as to the status of this Lease, the existence of any defaults, and the amount of Rent that is due and payable.

19.FIRE, CASUALTY, EMINENT DOMAIN

Should a substantial portion of the Premises, or of the Building be substantially damaged by fire or other casualty, or be taken by eminent domain, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease. When such fire, casualty, or taking renders the Premises substantially unsuitable for their intended use, a just and proportionate abatement of Rent shall be made, and Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease if:


	
 
	
(a)
	
Landlord fails to give notice within thirty (30) days of intention to restore Premises, or

(c)
	
Tenant shall be declared bankrupt or insolvent according to law, or if any assignment shall be made of Tenant’s property for the benefit of creditors.
	
 




20.2Landlord’s Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default by Tenant occurs, then Landlord shall have the right thereafter to re-enter and take complete possession of the Premises, to declare the Term ended, and remove Tenant's effects, without prejudice to any remedies which might be otherwise used for arrears of Rent or other default. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against all loss of Rent and other costs which Landlord may incur by reason of such termination during the residue of the Term. (b) Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to relet the Premises after Tenant vacates the Premises if this Lease is terminated based upon an Event of Default by Tenant. Marketing of Tenant’s Premises in a manner similar to the manner in which Landlord markets other premises within Landlord's control in the Building shall be deemed to have satisfied Landlord’s obligation to use “reasonable efforts”. Landlord shall not be required to (i) solicit or entertain negotiations with any other prospective tenants for the Premises until Landlord obtains full and complete possession of the Premises including, without limitation, the final and unappealable legal right to re-let the Premises free of any claim of Tenant, (ii) relet the Premises before leasing other vacant space in the Building, or (iii) lease the Premises for a rental less than the current fair market rental then prevailing for similar office space in the Building.

20.3Landlord’s Self-Help. If Tenant defaults in any of its non-monetary obligations under this Lease, and thereafter fails to cure such default within thirty (30) days after Tenant receives notice of such default from Landlord (except that no prior notice shall be required in an emergency), then Landlord, without being under any obligation to do so and without thereby waiving such default, may remedy such default for the account and at the expense of Tenant. If Landlord makes any expenditures or incurs any obligations for the payment of money in connection therewith, including but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, in instituting, prosecuting, or defending any action or proceeding, such sums paid or obligations incurred, with interest at the Lease Interest Rate, shall be paid to Landlord by Tenant as Additional Rent.

20.4Landlord’s Default. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default of its obligations under this Lease unless Tenant has given Landlord notice of such default, and Landlord has failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives such notice or such longer period of time as Landlord may reasonably require to cure such default. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease nor shall Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent or other charges under this Lease abate based upon any default by Landlord of its obligations under this Lease.

21.NOTICES

All demands, approvals, consents, or notices shall be in writing and delivered by hand or sent by express or certified mail, with return receipt requested or with delivery confirmation requested from the U.S. postal service, or sent by overnight or same day courier service at the party’s respective Notice Address(es) set forth above, or at such other address or addresses of which either party shall give notice to the other party.

22.SURRENDER; HOLDOVER

22.1Delivery of Premises at End of Term. Tenant shall, at the expiration or other termination of the Term; (i) remove all Tenant’s goods and effects from the Premises (including, without hereby limiting the generality of the foregoing, all signs and lettering affixed or painted by Tenant, either inside or outside the Premises), and (ii) deliver to Landlord the Premises all keys, locks thereto, and other fixtures connected therewith and, subject to Section 13.3, all alterations and additions made to or upon the Premises, broom clean, free of debris and rubbish, and otherwise in the same condition in which Tenant is required to maintain the Premises during the Term. If Tenant fails to remove any of Tenant’s property from the Premises after the latter of the expiration or prior termination of the Term, or the date that Tenant vacates, Landlord is hereby authorized, without liability to Tenant for loss or damage thereto, and at the sole risk of Tenant, to remove and store any of the property at Tenant’s expense, or to retain same under Landlord’s control or to sell at public or private sale, without notice any or all of the property not so removed and to apply the net proceeds of such sale to the payment of any sum due hereunder, or to destroy such property.

- 23 -



 

22.2Hold Over. Occupancy of the Premises by Tenant or anyone claiming by, through, or under Tenant after termination or expiration of the Term shall be that of a tenancy at sufferance. Such occupancy shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of this Lease, and Tenant shall pay as a use and occupancy charge an amount (on a per month basis without reduction for partial months during the holdover) equal to 150% of the sum of the Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the period immediately preceding the holdover. No holdover or payment by Tenant or anyone claiming by, through, or under Tenant after the termination or expiration of this Lease shall be construed to extend the Term or prevent Landlord from immediate recovery of possession of the Premises by summary proceedings or otherwise. If such holding over continues for more than thirty (30) calendar days Tenant shall hold harmless Landlord, its agents and employees, and will exonerate, defend, and indemnify Landlord, its agents and employees, from and against any and all damages which Landlord may suffer on account of such occupancy of the Premises, including without limitation, any consequential damages incurred by Landlord arising from such tenancy at sufferance on and after the day on which the Term terminates or expires.

23.Intentionally omitted

24.FORCE MAJEURE

If Landlord is prevented or delayed from making any repairs or performing any other covenant hereunder by reason of any cause reasonably beyond the control of Landlord (“Force Majeure”), and Landlord gives Tenant written notice of such Force Majeure event within ten (10) business days of its occurrence, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant therefor nor, except as expressly otherwise provided in Sections 9.4 and 19, shall: (i) Tenant be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Rent by reason thereof, or (ii) the same give rise to a claim by Tenant that such failure constitutes actual constructive eviction from the Premises or any part thereof. The provisions of this Section 24 shall not extend or delay the periods of time prior to which Tenant has a right of abatement or termination as expressly set forth in Sections 9.4 and 19.

25.LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

25.1Landlord’s Liability. Tenant shall neither assert nor seek to enforce any claim against Landlord, or Landlord’s agents or employees, or the assets of Landlord or of Landlord’s agents or employees, for breach of this Lease or otherwise, other than against Landlord’s interest in the Building, and Tenant agrees to look solely to such interest for the satisfaction of any liability of Landlord under this Lease. In no event shall Landlord or Landlord’s agents or employees (or any of the officers, trustees, directors, partners, beneficiaries, joint venturers, members, stockholders, or other principals or representatives, and the like, disclosed or undisclosed, thereof) ever be personally liable for any such liability. This paragraph shall not limit any right that Tenant might otherwise have to obtain injunctive relief against Landlord or to take any other action which shall not involve the personal liability of Landlord to respond in monetary damages from Landlord’s assets other than the Landlord’s interest in said real estate, as aforesaid.

- 24 -



 

25.2Transfer by Landlord. Landlord shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or in part, all of its rights and obligations under this Lease and in the Building or Property. Upon transfer, Landlord shall be released from any further obligations hereunder and Tenant agrees to look solely to the successor in interest of Landlord for the performance of such obligations, provided that any successor pursuant to a voluntary, third party transfer (but not as part of an involuntary transfer resulting from a foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof) shall have assumed Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, including without limitation Landlord’s Security Deposit obligations under Section 4.

25.3No Consequential Damages. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY OR LANDLORD’S MANAGING AGENT, IF ANY, BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY LOST PROFIT, DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF BUSINESS, OR ANY FORM OF SPECIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE; PROVIDED THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SENTENCE SHALL NOT LIMIT ANY LIABILITY WHICH TENANT HAS TO LANDLORD BASED UPON THE BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 22.

26.RULES AND REGULATIONS

Tenant will faithfully observe and comply with the Rules and Regulations, if any, attached hereto as Exhibit 3, and such further reasonable non-discriminatory Rules and Regulations as Landlord hereafter, from time to time, may make and communicate in writing to Tenant; provided, however, that in the case of any conflict between the provisions of this Lease and any such Rule or Regulation, the provisions of this Lease shall control, and provided further that nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed to impose upon Landlord any duty or obligation to enforce the Rules and Regulations or the terms, covenants, or conditions in any other lease as against any other tenant and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for violation of the same by any other tenant, its servants, employees, agents, contractors, visitors, invitees, or licensees.

27.PROHIBITED MATERIALS

27.1Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not bring or permit to be brought or kept in or on the Premises or elsewhere in the Building (other than standard cleaning and office supplies stored, used, and disposed of in accordance with all Laws) any inflammable, combustible, or explosive fluid, material, chemical, or substance including, without limitation, any hazardous substances, materials, or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) as defined under applicable federal, state, or local law, including without limitation under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), 42 USC §§ 9601, et seq., the Federal Solid Waste Disposal Act as amended by Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), 42 USC §§ 6901, et seq., or the Massachusetts Oil and Hazardous Material Release Prevention Act, M.G.L. c. 21E, or under any regulation of any governmental authority regulating environmental or health matters, as any of the foregoing may be amended from time to time (collectively, “Environmental Laws”).

- 25 -



 

Tenant acknowledges that it has received a copy of the environmental restrictions imposed on the use of the Property as set forth in Exhibit 5 hereto (the “Environmental Restrictions”). Any handling, treatment, transportation, storage, disposal, or use of Hazardous Materials by Tenant in or about the Premises and Tenant’s use of the Premises shall comply with all applicable Environmental Laws and the Environmental Restrictions. Tenant shall indemnify, defend upon demand with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and hold Landlord harmless from and against any liabilities, losses, claims, damages, interest, penalties, fines, attorneys’ fees, experts’ fees, court costs, remediation costs, and other expense which result from the use, storage, handling, treatment, transportation, release, or disposal of Hazardous Materials in or about the Premises or at the Property by Tenant or Tenant’s agents, employees, or contractors after the Premises Delivery Date, as well as any violation of the Environmental Restrictions by Tenant or its agents, employees, or contractors.

27.2Other Prohibited Materials. Tenant shall not bring or permit to be brought or kept in or on the Premises or elsewhere in the Building: any materials, appliances, or equipment (including, without limitation, materials, appliances, and equipment selected by Tenant for the construction or other preparation of the Premises and furniture and carpeting) which pose any danger to life, safety, or health or may cause damage, injury, or death; any unique, unusually valuable, rare, or exotic property, work of art, or the like unless the same is fully insured under the insurance set forth in Section 11.2; or any data processing, electronic, optical, or other equipment or property of a delicate, fragile, or vulnerable nature unless the same are housed, shielded, and protected against harm and damage, whether by cleaning or maintenance personnel, radiations, or emanations from other equipment now or hereafter installed in the Building or at the Property, or otherwise.

28.OTHER PROVISIONS

28.1Separability. If any provision of this Lease or portion of such provision or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is for any reason held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease (or the remainder of such provision) and the application thereof to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby.

28.2Captions, etc. The captions are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for reference, and in no way define, limit or describe the scope of this Lease nor the intent of any provisions thereof. References to “State” shall mean, where appropriate, the District of Columbia and other Federal territories, possessions, as well as any state of the United States.

28.3Execution. This Lease may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which individually shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute a single, original agreement.

- 26 -



 

28.4Broker. Tenant and Landlord each represent and warrant that it has not directly or indirectly dealt, with respect to the leasing of space in the Building, with any broker or had its attention called to the Premises or other space to let in the Building, by anyone other than the broker, person, or firm, if any, designated in Exhibit 1. Tenant agrees to defend, exonerate, and save harmless and indemnify Landlord and anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord against any claims for a commission arising as a result of a breach of the foregoing representation by Tenant, provided that Landlord shall be solely responsible for the payment of brokerage commissions to the Landlord’s Broker and Tenant’s Broker as designated in Exhibit 1.

28.5Modifications. If in connection with obtaining financing for the Building, the Property, or Landlord’s interest therein, a bank, insurance company, pension trust or other institutional lender shall request reasonable modifications in this Lease as a condition to such financing, Tenant will not unreasonably withhold, delay, or condition its consent thereto, provided that such modifications do not increase the obligations of Tenant hereunder or materially adversely affect the leasehold interest hereby created or Tenant’s Permitted Use of the Premises.

28.6Waiver. Landlord’s failure to complain of any action or non-action by Tenant, no matter how long the same may continue, shall never be a waiver of by Landlord of its right’s hereunder. Further, no waiver of any provision hereof by Landlord shall be construed as a waiver of any other provision hereof, nor as a waiver at any subsequent time of the same provision. Landlord’s consent or approval to or of any action by Tenant requiring such consent or approval shall not be construed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord’s consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar act by Tenant.

28.7Governing Law. This Lease is made pursuant to, and shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to choice-of-laws principles, and any applicable local municipal rules, regulations, by-laws, ordinances, and the like.

28.8Assignment of Rents. With reference to any assignment by Landlord of its interest in this Lease, or the rents payable hereunder, conditional in nature or otherwise, which assignment is made to or held by a bank, trust company, insurance company, or other institutional lender holding a mortgage or ground lease on the Building or Landlord’s interest therein, Tenant agrees:


	
 
	
(a)
	
that the execution thereof by Landlord and the acceptance thereof by such mortgagee and/or ground lessor shall never be deemed an assumption by such mortgagee and/or ground lessor of any of the obligations of Landlord thereunder, unless such mortgagee and/or ground lessor shall, by written notice sent to Tenant, specifically otherwise elect; and




- 27 -



 


	
 
	
(b)
	
that, except as aforesaid, such mortgagee and/or ground lessor shall be treated as having assumed Landlord’s obligations thereunder only upon foreclosure of such mortgagee’s mortgage or deed of trust or termination of such ground lessor’s ground lease and the taking of possession of the Premises after having given notice to Tenant of the same.




28.9Representation of Authority. By the execution hereof each of the signatories on behalf of the respective parties hereby warrants and represents to the other that he or she is duly authorized to execute this Lease on behalf of such party. If Tenant is a corporation, Tenant hereby appoints the signatory whose name appears below on behalf of Tenant as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing this Lease for and on behalf of Tenant.

28.10Expenses Incurred by Landlord upon Tenant Requests. Except as otherwise provided in Section 14.1, Tenant shall, upon demand, reimburse Landlord for all reasonable third-party expenses, including, without limitation, legal fees, incurred by Landlord in connection with all requests by Tenant for consents, approvals, or execution of collateral documentation related to this Lease, including, without limitation, costs incurred by Landlord in the review and approval of Tenant’s plans and specifications in connection with the proposed alterations to be made by Tenant to the Premises and requests by Tenant for Landlord to execute waivers of Landlord’s interest in Tenant’s property in connection with third party financing by Tenant. Such costs shall be deemed to be Additional Rent under this Lease. Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any of Landlord’s costs related to the negotiation or execution of this Lease or Landlord’s review of plans for Tenant’s Work.

28.11Survival. Without limiting any other obligation of Tenant which may survive the expiration or prior termination of the Term of this Lease, all obligations on the part of Tenant to indemnify, defend, or hold harmless Landlord, or to pay Rent or other amounts then owed, as set forth in this Lease shall survive the expiration or prior termination of the Term of this Lease.

28.12Notice of Lease. The parties agree not to record this Lease, but each party hereto agrees, on the request of the other, to execute a so-called Notice of Lease in form recordable and complying with applicable law and reasonably satisfactory to both Landlord’s and Tenant’s attorneys. In no event shall such document set forth Rent or other charges payable by Tenant under this Lease, and any such document shall expressly state that it is executed pursuant to the provisions contained in this Lease, and is not intended to vary the terms and conditions of this Lease.

- 28 -



 

28.13Anti-Terrorism Representations. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that:


	
 
	
(a)
	
Tenant is not, and shall not during the Term of this Lease become, a person or entity with whom Landlord is restricted from doing business under the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, H.R. 3162, Public Law 107-56 (commonly known as the USA Patriot Act) and Executive Order Number 13224 on Terrorism Financing, effective September 24, 2001 and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto, including, without limitation, persons and entities named on the Office of Foreign Asset Control Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (collectively, “Prohibited Persons”); and





	
 
	
(b)
	
Tenant is not currently conducting any business or engaged in any transactions or dealings, or otherwise associated with, any Prohibited Persons in connection with the use or occupancy of the Premises; and





	
 
	
(c)
	
Tenant will not in the future during the Term of this Lease engage in any transactions or dealings, or be otherwise associated with, any Prohibited Persons in connection with the use or occupancy of the Premises.




28.14Waiver of Trial by Jury. To induce Landlord to enter into this Lease, TENANT HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER LANDLORD OR TENANT ON ANY MATTERS WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS LEASE, THE RELATIONSHIP OF LANDLORD AND TENANT, TENANT’S USE OR OCCUPANCY OF THE PREMISES AND/OR ANY CLAIM OF INJURY OR DAMAGE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY SUMMARY PROCESS EVICTION ACTION.

28.15No Offset. Except as may be otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, in no event shall Tenant have the right to terminate or cancel this Lease, to withhold Rent, or to set-off any claim or damages against Rent as a result of any default by Landlord or breach by Landlord of its covenants or warranties or promises under this Lease, except in the case of a wrongful eviction of Tenant from the Premises (constructive or actual) by Landlord continuing after notice to Landlord thereof and a reasonable opportunity for Landlord to cure the same. Further, Tenant shall not assert any right to deduct the cost of repairs or any monetary claim against Landlord from Rent thereafter due and payable, but shall look solely to Landlord for satisfaction of such claim.

28.16No Reservation. Submission of this instrument for examination or signature by Tenant does not constitute a reservation of space or an option for lease, and it is not effective until execution and delivery by both Landlord and Tenant. Execution and delivery of this Lease by Tenant to Landlord shall constitute an irrevocable offer by Tenant to lease the Premises on the terms and conditions set forth herein, which offer may not be revoked for ten (10) days after such delivery.

- 29 -



 

28.17Tenant’s Right of First Offer. Provided that (i) Tenant is not in default of any of its covenants and obligations under the Lease, (ii) Tenant has not Transferred except to a Permitted Transferee nor subleased all or any portion of the Premises then demised to Tenant, and (iii) if less than nine (9) months remain in the Initial Term or initial Extension Term, as the case may be, Tenant already has validly exercised its extension option under Section 5.3 for the subsequent Extension Term (collectively, the “ROFO Preconditions”), which ROFO Preconditions Landlord may waive, at its sole election, by written notice to Tenant), both when Landlord is required to give Landlord’s ROFO Notice (defined below) and as of the ROFO Premises Commencement Date, Tenant shall have the right (“Right of First Offer”) to lease the ROFO Premises (defined below), if and when such ROFO Premises becomes available for lease to Tenant, as set forth below.


	
 
	
(a)
	
Definitions. (x) “ROFO Premises” shall mean any area of the Building on a floor above or below the Premises then demised to Tenant, when such area becomes available for lease to Tenant during the Term of this Lease. (y) A ROFO Premises shall be deemed to be “available for lease to Tenant” if, during the Initial Term or first Extension Term, if any, of this Lease, Landlord, in its reasonable judgment, determines that such area will become available for leasing to Tenant (i.e., when Landlord determines that the then current occupant of such ROFO Premises will vacate such ROFO Premises, and when Landlord intends to offer such area for lease). No portion of the Building vacant on or before the Base Rent Commencement Date shall be deemed to be “available for lease to Tenant” until such premises have been leased to a third party, and thereafter Landlord determines that such third party tenant of such ROFO Premises will vacate such ROFO Premises, and when Landlord intends to offer such area for lease. (z) The “ROFO Premises Commencement Date” shall be the latter of: (i) the ROFO Premises commencement date set forth in Landlord’s ROFO Notice, or (ii) the date that Landlord delivers such ROFO Premises to Tenant.





	
 
	
(b)
	
Exercise of Right to Lease ROFO Premises: Landlord shall give Tenant written notice (“Landlord’s ROFO Notice”) when Landlord determine that a ROFO Premises will become available for lease to Tenant. Landlord’s ROFO Notice shall set forth the exact location of the ROFO Premises, Landlord’s designation of the Fair Market Rental Rate (as defined in Section 5.3 hereof, disregarding any references to renewal, but taking into consideration the “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition of the ROFO Premises) applicable to the ROFO Premises and the ROFO Premises Commencement Date. Tenant may lease such ROFO Premises in its entirety only, by delivering written notice of exercise to Landlord (“Tenant’s ROFO Exercise Notice”) within ten (10) business days after the date of 




- 30 -



 


	
 
		
Landlord’s ROFO Notice. If Tenant disagrees with Landlord’s designation of the Fair Market Rental Rate, Tenant shall so state in Tenant’s ROFO Exercise Notice, and the Fair Market Rental Rate shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.3 hereof. Tenant shall have no right to exercise its Right of First Offer if less than one (1) year remains in the Initial Term of the Lease or the initial Extension Term, if any, of the Lease unless Tenant, simultaneously with delivering Tenant’s ROFO Exercise Notice, also validly exercises Tenant’s Extension Option in accordance with Section 5.3 hereof or otherwise extends the Lease Term upon terms and conditions mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. If Tenant has no right to exercise its Right of First Offer or if the ROFO Preconditions are not met, Landlord shall not be obligated to deliver Landlord’s ROFO Notice to Tenant. If Tenant fails to timely give Tenant’s ROFO Exercise Notice, Tenant shall have no further right to lease the ROFO Premises in question unless and until either (i) such ROFO Premises have been leased to a third party and thereafter again become “available for lease to Tenant”, time being of the essence of this Section 28.17 or (ii) Landlord intends to offer the ROFO Premises to another prospective tenant at less than 95% of the Fair Market Rental Rate at which Landlord most recently offered the ROFO Premises to Tenant.





	
 
	
(c)
	
Lease Provisions Applying to ROFO Premises: The leasing to Tenant of any ROFO Premises shall be upon all of the same terms and conditions of the Lease (subject to application of the fair market rental rate as set forth above), except that Tenant shall take such ROFO Premises “AS IS, WHERE IS” in its then (i.e., as of the date of delivery) state of construction, finish, and decoration, without any obligation on the part of Landlord to construct or prepare any ROFO Premises for Tenant’s occupancy or to provide any Tenant Improvement Allowance for the ROFO Premises. The Termination Date with respect to such ROFO Premises shall be the Termination Date of the Lease.





	
 
	
(d)
	
Execution of Lease Amendments: Notwithstanding that Tenant’s exercise of its Right of First Offer shall be self-executing as described above, the parties shall promptly execute a lease amendment reflecting the addition of a ROFO Premises. The execution of such lease amendment shall not be deemed to waive any of the conditions to Tenant’s exercise of its Right of First Offer, unless otherwise specifically provided in such lease amendment.




- 31 -



 


	
 
	
(e)
	
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant’s Right of First Offer is subject and subordinate to the expansion rights (whether such rights are designated as a right of first offer, right of first refusal, expansion option or otherwise) of Bright Horizons with respect to space in the Building.




28.18Quiet Enjoyment. Tenant, upon paying the Rent reserved herein and performing all of the terms, covenants, and conditions on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed, shall peaceably and quietly have and hold the Premises without hindrance or molestation by any person(s) lawfully claiming by, through, or under Landlord, subject to the terms of this Lease.

Without incurring any liability to Tenant, Landlord may permit access to the Premises and open the same, whether or not Tenant is present, upon any demand of any court-appointed receiver, trustee, assignee for the benefit of creditors, sheriff, marshal, or court officer entitled pursuant to a court order or other legal process to, such access for the purpose of taking possession of, or removing, Tenant’s property or for any other lawful purpose (but this provision and any action by Landlord hereunder shall not be deemed a recognition by Landlord that the person or official making such demand has any right or interest in or to this Lease, or in or to the Premises), or upon demand of any representative of the fire, police, building, sanitation, or other department of the city, state, or federal governments.
