Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Landlord and IHS enter into an early termination agreement for IHS’s existing lease and Landlord is able to deliver the Sixth Floor East Wing Premises earlier pursuant to the terms thereof, then Landlord shall have the right to accelerate the Sixth Floor East Wing Premises Commencement Date upon sixty (60) days’ advance written notice to Tenant, and the accelerated date set forth in such notice shall be deemed to be the Sixth Floor East Wing Premises Commencement Date for all purposes herein.  

(iv)The Sixth Floor East Wing Premises and the Third Floor West Wing Premises are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Additional Premises”.

Tenant shall be obligated to remove, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, any then remaining MediaMath Furniture from the Third Floor West Wing Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease with respect to the Third Floor West Wing Premises.       

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant acknowledges that: 

(a) (i) all or a portion of the Third Floor West Wing Premises are currently occupied by MediaMath, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MediaMath”), (ii) Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for failing to deliver the Third Floor West Wing Premises, or any portion thereof, to Tenant by any particular date, and (iii) Tenant shall not have the right to terminate the Lease for Landlord’s failure to timely deliver the Third Floor West Wing Premises, or any portion thereof, to Tenant by any particular date, but shall accept delivery of such Third Floor West Wing Premises when delivered by Landlord; provided, however, that if MediaMath fails to vacate by December 1, 2019, Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to obtain possession of the Third Floor West Wing Premises; and

The Base Rent payable for each month during the Extension Term shall be the prevailing rental rate (the “Prevailing Rental Rate”), at the commencement of the Extension Term, for renewals of space in Cambridge, Massachusetts of equivalent quality, size, utility and location, taking into account prevailing concessions including, but not be limited to, tenant improvements, tenant improvement allowances, rental abatement, the length of the Extension Term, size of the premises, condition of the premises, escalation charges, location of the premises, location and age of the building, free rent periods, brokerage commissions and lease term.  Within fourteen (14) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice to extend, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant written notice of the Prevailing Rental Rate and shall advise Tenant of the required adjustment to Base Rent, if any, and the other terms and conditions offered.  Tenant shall, within twenty-one (21) days after receipt of Landlord’s notice, notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant accepts or rejects Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate (“Tenant Notice”).  If Tenant timely notifies Landlord that Tenant accepts Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate, then, on or before the commencement date of the Extension Term, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease extending the Term for the Extension Premises on the same terms provided in this Lease, except as follows:

(a)Base Rent shall be adjusted to the Prevailing Rental Rate;

(b)Tenant shall have no further extension option unless expressly granted by Landlord in writing; and

(c)Landlord shall lease to Tenant the Extension 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.

If Tenant rejects Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate, then the Base Rent payable for each month during the Extension Term (“Fair Market Rent”) shall be established by appraisal in the following manner.  By not later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the Tenant Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one (1) qualified appraiser (as hereinafter defined) and the two (2) qualified appraisers so appointed shall determine the Fair Market Rent within thirty (30) days following their appointment.  As used herein, the term “qualified appraiser” shall mean any independent person (a) who is employed by an appraisal or brokerage firm of recognized competence in the greater Boston area and (b) who has not less than ten (10) years’ experience in commercial office leasing with respect to, or in appraising and valuing properties of, the general location, type and character as the Premises.  If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint a qualified appraiser within 

 



 

said thirty (30) day period, then the other party shall have the power to appoint the qualified appraiser for the defaulting party.  If said qualified appraisers are unable to agree on the Fair Market Rent within said thirty (30) day period, then they jointly shall appoint a third qualified appraiser within ten (10) days of the expiration of such thirty (30) day period.  If the first two appraisers shall fail to appoint a third appraiser within such ten (10) day period, either appraiser may request the President of the Boston Bar Association to appoint the third appraiser.  Within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the third appraiser, all three qualified appraisers shall meet and determine the Fair Market Rent.  If all three qualified appraisers are unable unanimously to agree upon the Fair Market Rent, then the first two qualified appraisers simultaneously shall deliver their final Fair Market Rent numbers to the third qualified appraiser, and the third qualified appraiser shall select the number as the Fair Market Rent number that is closest to the Fair Market Rent number determined by the third appraiser, and the Fair Market Rent so selected shall be conclusive and binding upon the Landlord and Tenant.  Each party shall bear the cost of its qualified appraiser, and the cost of the third qualified appraiser shall be borne equally between the parties.  Until such time as the Fair Market Rent is so determined, from and after the commencement date of the Extension Term, Tenant shall pay Base Rent at the average of Landlord’s and Tenant’s appraisers’ designations of fair market rent, with an appropriate retroactive adjustment once the Fair Market Rent has been determined.

Tenant’s rights under this Exhibit J shall terminate if (1) this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises is terminated, (2) Tenant assigns any of its interest in this Lease or sublets more than fifty percent (50%) of the Premises leased under this Second Amendment, or (3) Tenant fails to timely exercise its option under this Exhibit, time being of the essence with respect to Tenant’s exercise thereof.
