For
first (1st) year of the Lease Term hereof, the Tenant shall pay Landlord rent at the rate of One Hundred Fifty Nine Thousand Two Hundred Nineteen Dollars and Eighty Four Cents
($159,219.84) per year, in equal monthly installments Thirteen Thousand Two Hundred Sixty Eight Dollars and Thirty Two Cents ($13,268.32) of which minimum rent shall be paid monthly, in advance, on

($11,842.00 × 200/603).

amount actually payable by Tenant under this Section (A) for such year, and if the amount paid by Tenant for such year on account as aforesaid shall be less than the amount actually payable
therefore as computed by Landlord, then Tenant shall pay the amount of the deficiency, if any, to Landlord within ten (10) days after receipt of such computation and if the amount paid by
Tenant for such year as aforesaid shall exceed the amount actually payable therefore as computed by Landlord, then Tenant may recoup the amount of the excess by withholding such amount from the next

expiration or other termination of the term of this Lease, if Tenant shall not then be in default or otherwise liable to Landlord, said sum or the unapplied balance thereof shall be returned to
Tenant. It is understood and agreed that Landlord shall always have the right to apply said sum, or any part thereof, as aforesaid in the event of any such default or defaults, without prejudice to
any other remedy or remedies which Landlord may have, or Landlord may pursue any other such remedy or remedies in lieu of applying said sum or any part thereof. No interest shall

If the Demised Premises shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, then Tenant shall give notice thereof to Landlord, and except as hereinafter otherwise provided, Landlord shall,

Landlord shall not be obligated to spend for such repairs and restoration any amount in excess of such insurance proceeds, if any, as shall be paid to Landlord as the result of such damage or
destruction, and subject to the prior rights thereto, if any, of any mortgagees. If the damage to the Demised Premises should be so extensive as to render the whole or any part of thereof untenable or
unsuitable for use and occupancy by Tenant, a just proportion of the minimum rent, according to the nature and extent of the injury to the Demised Premises, shall be suspended or abated until
occupancy the Demised Premises shall be repaired or restored as provided in the first sentence of this Section (A). It is agreed and understood that if during the term of this Lease either the
Demised Premises or the Building shall be damaged or destroyed as aforesaid to the extent of twenty five percent (25%) or more of their insurable value, Landlord, at its election may terminate the

7







 

destruction.
It is also agreed and understood that if during the last six (6) months of the term of this Lease the Demised Premises shall be damaged or destroyed as aforesaid to the extent of
twenty five percent (25%) or more of their insurable value, Tenant at its election, may terminate the term of this Lease by a notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days after such damage or
destruction. In the event of any termination of the term of this Lease pursuant to the provisions of this Article, the termination shall be effective on the fifteenth (15th) day after

termination, and minimum rent shall be apportioned as of the time of termination. If Landlord is required or elects to repair or restore the Demised Premises as hereinabove provided, then Tenant shall
resume its business therein. If Landlord shall not substantially complete repair and restoration of the Demised Premises to the extent required under this Section (A) on or before the one
hundred eightieth (180th) day following the occurrence of such casualty ("the Deadline"), then the term of this Lease shall terminate upon the Deadline unless prior to the Deadline
Tenant shall give notice to the Landlord that Tenant then elects to continue the term of this Lease thereafter, and if Tenant shall so elect then this sentence shall thereafter be void and of no
further force or effect. 


(B)
Landlord shall maintain such fire and casualty insurance with respect to the Demised Premises as shall from time to time be required by the holder of a first mortgage upon the Entire Parcel. The
cost to Landlord of any insurance which Landlord shall maintain with respect to the Demised Premises, the Building and/or the Entire Parcel, including, without limitation, fire, so-called
extended coverage, rent insurance, agreed amount, inflation guard, all risk and/or difference-in-conditions coverage, and general comprehensive public liability insurance, is
herein referred to as "Landlord's insurance cost."

additional rent. For the calendar year during which the term of this Lease shall commence and terminate, Tenant shall pay a pro rata portion of such excess. The determination of Landlord's insurance
agent with respect to the amount of any such excess shall be conclusive and finally determinative for purposes hereof. Nothing in this Section (B) shall be deemed to limit in any way the
obligations of Tenant contained in this Lease with respect to the maintaining of any type of insurance whatsoever. 


(C)
Tenant shall not do, or suffer to be done, or keep, or suffer to be kept, or omit to do, anything in, upon or about the Demised Premises, the Building and/or the Entire Parcel which may prevent
the obtaining of any insurance on, or with respect to the Demised Premises, the Building and/or the Entire Parcel or on any property therein, including, without limitation, fire, extended coverage,
public liability insurance and any other insurance referred to in Section (A) hereof, or which may make void or voidable any such insurance or which may create any extra premiums for, or
increase the rate of, any such insurance. If anything shall be done or kept or omitted to be done in, upon or about the Demised Premises which shall create any increased or extra premiums for or
increase the rate of, any such increase, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies which Landlord may have as a result thereof, Tenant shall pay the increased cost of the same to Landlord
upon demand. In determining whether extra or increased premiums are the result of Tenant's use of the Demised Premises a Schedule issued by the organization making the rates applicable to the Demised
Premises, or a certificate of Landlord's insurance agent, showing the components of such rates, shall be conclusive evidence of the items and charges which comprise the rate of any such insurance and
any increase therein and extra charge therefore.

14.   EMINENT DOMAIN:  



(A)
If after the execution of this Lease and prior to the expiration of the term of this Lease the whole of the Demised Premises shall be taken under the power of eminent domain, or acquired for any
public or quasi-public use by deed in lieu thereof, then the term of this Lease shall cease as of the time when Landlord shall be divested of its title in the Demised Premises, and minimum rent shall
be apportioned and adjusted as of time of termination. 


(B)
If only a part of the Entire Parcel shall be taken under the power of eminent domain, or acquired for any public or quasi-public use by deed in lieu thereof and if as a result thereof the paved
area of the Entire Parcel shall be reduced by more than twenty percent (20%) or the ground floor area of the Building shall be reduced by more than ten percent (10%), and the part remaining shall not
be reasonably adequate for the operation of business conducted in the Demised Premises prior to the taking, either Landlord or Tenant may, in its election terminate the term of this Lease by giving
the other notice of the exercise of its election within twenty days (20) after it shall receive notice of such taking, and termination shall be effective as of the time that possession of the
part so taken shall be required for public or quasi-public use, and minimum rent shall be apportioned and adjusted as of the time of termination. If only a part of the Demised Premises shall be taken
under the power of eminent domain or so acquired and if the term of this Lease shall not be terminated as aforesaid, then the term of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect and Landlord
shall, within a reasonable time after possession is required for public use, repair and restore what may remain of the Entire Parcel and the demised Premises subject to reduction in area as a result
thereof and subject to then existing building and zoning codes, and a just proportion of the minimum rent, according to the nature and extent of the injury to the Demised Premises, shall be suspended
or abated until what may remain of the Demised Premises shall be put into such condition by Landlord, and thereafter proportion of the minimum rent shall be abated for the balance of the term of this
Lease, said proportion to be computed on the basis of the relationship which the ground floor area of the Demised Premises rendered unusable bears to the ground floor area of the Demised Premises
immediately prior therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be obligated to make any such repairs and restoration under this Article which shall cost Landlord any amount in excess of
such damages as shall be paid to Landlord as the result of such taking or deed and not required to be paid by Landlord to the holders of any mortgages upon this Entire Parcel. 


(C)
Landlord reserves to itself, and Tenant assigns to Landlord, all rights to damages accruing on account of any taking under the power of eminent domain or by reason of any such act of any public or
quasi-public authority for which damages are payable. Tenant agrees to execute such instruments of assignment as may be reasonably required by Landlord in any proceeding for the recovery of such
damages if requested by Landlord, and to pay over to Landlord any damages that may be recovered in said proceeding. It is agreed and understood, however, that Landlord does not reserve to itself, and
Tenant does not assign to Landlord any damages payable for movable trade fixtures installed by Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant at the sole cost of Tenant or any person claiming under
Tenant.

(A)
All rent (minimum and additional) and other charges and amounts due and payable under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord shall be payable and paid without demand and without any deduction,
defense, counterclaim or set-off whatsoever. If Landlord shall default under this Lease, Tenant's sole remedies shall be injunctive relief and/or damages, and Tenant shall not have the
right to terminate this Lease or withhold any rent, charge or amount hereunder as a result thereof. A default by the Tenant under this Lease shall be deemed a default under all other Leases Tenant 



9







 

or
its affiliates may now have or subsequently enter into with Landlord or JEEBO Management, LLC. 


(B)
(1) If Tenant shall default in the payment of any rent or other payments required of Tenant and such default shall continue for  five (5) days, or (2) if Tenant shall default in the
performance or observance of any other agreement or condition on its part to be
performed or observed and if Tenant shall fail to cure said default within five (5) days after receipt of notice of said default from Landlord,
or (3) if any person shall levy upon, or take, this Leasehold interest or any part thereof upon execution, attachment or other process of law, or (4) if Tenant shall make an assignment
of its property for the benefit of creditors, or (5) if Tenant shall be declared bankrupt or insolvent according to law, or (6) if any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
arrangement proceedings shall be commenced by Tenant, or (7) if any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or arrangement proceedings shall be commenced against Tenant, or if a receiver,
trustee or assignee shall be appointed for the whole or any part of Tenant's property, and shall not be dismissed within thirty (30) days thereafter, or (8) if Tenant shall vacate or
abandon the Demised Premises, then, in any of said events, Landlord lawfully and immediately or at any time thereafter, and without any further notice or demand, enter into and upon the Demised
Premises or any part thereof in the name of the whole, by force or otherwise, and hold the Demised Premises as if this Lease had not been made, and expel Tenant and those claiming under it and remove
its or their property (forcibly, if necessary) without being taken or deemed to be guilty of any manner of any trespass (or Landlord may send written notice to Tenant of the termination of the term of
this Lease), and upon entry as aforesaid (or in the event that Landlord shall send to Tenant notice of termination as above provided, on the fifth (5th) day next following the date of
the sending of such notice), the term of this Lease shall terminate. A default by Tenant under this Lease shall be deemed a default under all other Leases Tenant may have with Landlord. 



(C)
In case of any such termination, Tenant will indemnify Landlord each month against all loss of rent and all obligations which Landlord may incur by reason of any such termination between the time
of termination and the expiration of the term of this Lease as originally provided in Article 2; or at the election of Landlord, exercised at the time of the termination or at any time
thereafter, Tenant will indemnify Landlord each month until the exercise of the election against all loss of rent and all obligations which Landlord may incur by reason of such termination during the
period between the time of the termination and the exercise of the election and upon the exercise of the election Tenant will pay to Landlord as damages such amount as at the time of the exercise of
the election represents the amount by which the rental value of the Demised Premises for the period from the exercise of the election until the expiration of the term as originally provided in
Article 2 shall be less than the amount of rent and other payments provided herein to be paid by Tenant to Landlord during said period. It is understood and agreed that at the time of the
termination or at any time thereafter, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate damages resulting from a Tenant default, including but not limited to marketing the Demised
Premises and/or renting the Demised Premises upon any terms and conditions as Landlord may in its sole discretion determine, and for a term which may expire after the
expiration of the term of this Lease, without releasing Tenant from any liability whatsoever, that Tenant shall be liable for any expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with obtaining possession
of the Demised Premises, with removing from the Demised Premises property of Tenant and persons claiming under it (including, without limitation, warehouse charges), with putting the Demised Premises
into good condition for reletting, and with any reletting, including, without limitation, expenses for protecting, redecorating, repairing, subdividing and altering the Demised Premises and for
reasonable attorneys' fees and brokers' fees, and that any monies collected from any reletting shall be applied first to the foregoing expenses and then to the payment of rent and all other payments
then due or which may thereafter become due from Tenant to Landlord.

16.   ASSIGNMENT:  



Tenant
shall not assign, mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber this Lease or any interest therein, or sublet the whole or any part of the Demised Premises, without obtaining on each occasion the
written consent of Landlord. The foregoing prohibition against assignment and subletting shall be construed to prohibit an assignment of subletting by operation of law. The foregoing prohibition shall
not prohibit the assignment of this Lease, or subletting of the Demised Premises, to a business organization affiliated with Tenant, but, notwithstanding such assignment, Tenant shall remain fully,
primarily and unconditionally liable under this Lease and shall not thereby be released from the performance and observance of all the agreements and conditions on the part of Tenant to be performed
or observed hereunder. No assignment under the immediately preceding sentence and no other assignment or other transfer of Tenant's interest in this Lease to which Landlord may hereafter consent shall
be effective unless and until the assignee or transferee thereunder shall deliver to Landlord, in recordable form a copy of the assignment or transfer thereto and the agreement of such assignee
or transferee with Landlord to perform and observe all of the terms and conditions on the part of Tenant to be performed or observed under this Lease. A business organization shall be deemed to be
affiliated with any corporation (a) if such business organization controls such corporation either directly by ownership or a majority of its voting stock or, if publicly held, of such minority
thereof as to give it substantial control of such corporation, or indirectly by ownership of such majority of voting stock of another business corporation so controlling such corporation, or
(b) if such business organization is so controlled by another business organization so controlling such corporation, or (c) if such business organization and such corporation are
substantially controlled by the same stockholders or their families. 




17.   WAIVER OF SUBROGATION:  



Each
of Landlord and Tenant hereby releases the other, to the extent of its insurance coverage, from any and all liability for any loss or damage caused by fire or any of the extended coverage
casualties or any other casualty covered by its insurance, even if such fire, or other casualty shall be brought about by the fault or negligence of the other party, or any persons claiming under it,
however, this release shall be in force and effect only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such time as the releasor's policies of insurance covering such loss or damage shall contain a
clause to the effect that this release shall not affect said policies or the right of the releaser to recover thereunder. Each of Landlord and Tenant agrees that its fire and other casualty insurance
policies will include such a clause so long as the same is obtainable and is includible without extra cost, or if extra cost is chargeable, therefore, so long as the other part pays such extra cost.
If extra cost is chargeable therefore, each party will advise the other thereof and the amount thereof, and the other party at its election, may pay the same but shall not be obligated to do so. 




18.   SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGES:  



Tenant
agrees that upon the request of Landlord, Tenant shall subordinate this Lease and the lien hereof to the lien of any present or future mortgage or mortgages upon the Demised Premises or any
property of which the Demised Premises are a part, irrespective of the time of execution or time of recording of any such mortgage or mortgages. Upon the request of Landlord, Tenant shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver any and all instruments deemed by Landlord necessary or desirable, including but not limited to the Tenant's most recent financial statement or statements to give effect to or
notice of such subordination or for any re-financing may be contemplating or sale the Building the Landlord may be contemplating. Tenant shall agree, in substance, that, if the holder of
any such mortgage or any person claiming thereunder, including, without limitation, a purchaser at foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, shall succeed to the interest of Landlord in this
Lease, Tenant shall recognize, and attorn to, such holder or other person as its Landlord 



11







 

under
this Lease, and shall enter into such further agreements with such mortgagee as such mortgagee shall request. Tenant also agrees that if it shall fail at any time to execute, acknowledge or
deliver any such instrument requested by Landlord, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies available to it, execute, acknowledge and deliver such instrument as the
attorney-in-fact of Tenant and in Tenant's name; and Tenant hereby makes, constitutes and irrevocably appoints Landlord as its attorney-in-fact for that
purpose. The word "mortgage" as used herein includes mortgages, deeds of trust and other similar instruments and modifications, consolidations, extensions, renewals, replacements and substitutes
thereof. 




19.   ACCESS TO PREMISES:  



Landlord
shall have the right to enter upon the Demised Premises or any part thereof, without charge, at any time during normal business hours after verbally informing Tenant, and in case of
emergency, at any time, to inspect the same, to show the Demised Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or Tenants, to make or facilitate any repairs, alterations, additions or improvements to
the Demised Premises and/or the Building, including, without limitation, to install and maintain in, and remove from, any part of the Demised Premises, pipes, wires and other conduits (but nothing in
this Article 19 contained shall obligate Landlord to make any repairs, alterations, additions, or improvements); and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent or
damages by reason of any of the foregoing. For the period commencing nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the term of this Lease, Landlord may maintain "For Lease" signs on the front or
any part of the exterior of the Demised Premises. 




20.   HOLDING OVER:  



If
Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant shall remain in possession of the Demised Premises or any part thereof after the expiration of the term of this Lease without any agreement in writing
between Landlord and Tenant with respect thereto, prior to the acceptance of rent by Landlord the person remaining in possession shall be deemed a Tenant-at-sufferance. After
acceptance of rent by Landlord, the person remaining in possession shall be deemed a Tenant from calendar month to calendar month subject to the provisions of this Lease insofar as the same may be
made applicable to a tenancy from month to month; except that during such tenancy from month to month, minimum rent shall be payable at a rate four times the rate in effect immediately prior to the
expiration of the term. This provision is used due to the uncertainty created by Tenant failing to vacate the premises at the expiration of the Lease term. Tenant's failure to complete restoration
shall be construed as a holdover until such time as restoration is complete. Such holdover rental rate shall be deemed a liquidated damage due to the anticipated or actual harm caused by the Tenant
failing to vacate the premises at the termination of the Lease term. 



12









 




































 21.   WAIVERS:  



Failure
of either party to complain of any act or omission on the part of the other party, no matter how long the same may continue, shall not be deemed to be a waiver by either party or any rights
hereunder. No waiver by either party at any time, express or implied, of any breach of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed a waiver of a breach of any other provision of this Lease or a
consent to any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision. If any action by Tenant shall require Landlord's consent or approval, Landlord's consent to or approval of such action on any one
occasion shall not be deemed a consent to or approval of said action on any subsequent occasion or a consent to or approval of any other action on the same or any subsequent occasion. No payment by
Tenant or acceptance by Landlord of a lesser amount than shall be due from Tenant to Landlord shall be deemed to be anything but payment on account, and the acceptance by Landlord of a check for a
lesser amount with an endorsement or statement thereon or upon a letter accompanying said check that said lesser amount is payment in full shall not be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord
may accept said check without prejudice to recover the balance due or pursue any other remedy. Any and all rights and remedies which Landlord may have under this Lease or by operation of law, either
at law or in equity, upon any breach, shall be distinct, separate and cumulative and shall not be deemed inconsistent with each other; and no one of them, whether exercised by Landlord or not, shall
be deemed to be in exclusion of any other, and any two or more or all of such rights and remedies may be exercised at the same time. 




22.   RULES AND REGULATIONS:  



Tenant
shall observe and comply with, and will cause its subtenants, and its and their employees and agents, to observe and comply with reasonable rule and regulations from time to time promulgated by
Landlord for the benefit and prosperity of the Industrial Park, any, if in which the Demised Premises are situated, including without limitation, the prohibition or restriction of any activities upon
the outdoor areas of the Demised Premises other than parking, loading and unloading. However, neither Tenant nor any person claiming under it shall be bound by any such rules and regulations until
such time Tenant receives a copy thereof. 




23.   QUIET ENJOYMENT:  



Landlord
agrees that upon Tenant's paying the rent and performing and observing the agreements, conditions and other provisions on its part to be performed and observed, Tenant shall and may peaceably
and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Demised Premises during the term of this Lease without any manner of hindrance or molestation from Landlord or any person claiming under Landlord, subject however,
to the terms of this Lease any instruments having a prior lien. 




24.   FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE:  



If
Tenant shall make any default or defaults under this Lease and shall fail to cure the same within five (5) days after Landlord gives Tenant notice thereof, then, Landlord may, at its
election, immediately or at any time thereafter, without waiving any claim for breach of agreement, and without further notice to Tenant, cure default or defaults for the account of Tenant, except
when reasonably deemed necessary by Landlord to prevent injury to person or property Landlord may cure such default without waiting five (5) days, but after notice to Tenant, and, in either
case, the cost to Landlord thereof shall be deemed to be additional rent due upon demand and shall be added to the installment of rent next accruing or to any subsequent installment of rent, at the
election Landlord.

26.   DELAYS:  



In
any case where either party hereto is required to do any act other than the payment of money, delays caused by or resulting from Act of God, war, civil commotion, fire or other casualty, labor
difficulties, shortages of labor, material or equipment, government regulations or other causes beyond such party's reasonable control shall not be counted in determining the time during which such
work shall be completed, whether such time be designated by a fixed time or "a reasonable time." In any case where work is to be paid for out of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, due
allowance shall be made, both to the party required to perform such work and to the party required to make such payment, for delays in the collection of such proceeds and awards.

29.   BROKERS COMMISSION:  



Tenant
hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant has dealt with no brokers in connection with this Lease other than O'Brien Commercial Real Estate, Inc. ("the Broker"). Tenant
shall save Landlord harmless from, and indemnify Landlord against, all loss or damage (including without limitation the cost of defending same) arising from any claim by any other brokers alleging
they have dealt with Tenant. 




30.   RENT ESCALATION:  



Commencing
with the beginning of the second (2nd) year of the term hereof the Tenant shall pay Landlord rent at the rate of One Hundred Sixty Seven Thousand
One Hundred Seventy Nine Dollars and Eighty Cents ($167,179.80) per year, in equal monthly installments of Thirteen Thousand Nine Hundred Thirty One Thousand Dollars
and Sixty Five Cents ($13,931.65). Commencing with the beginning of the third (3rd) year of the term hereof and for the balance of the term thereof remaining, the Tenant shall pay
the Landlord rent at the rate of One Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Five Hundred Thirty Eight Dollars and Seventy Nine Cents ($175,538.79) per year, in equal monthly
installments of Fourteen Thousand Six Hundred Twenty Eight Dollars and Twenty Eight Cents ($14,628.28). 




31.   OPTION TO EXTEND:  



Tenant
shall have the right, at its election, to extend the original term of this Lease for an additional period of five (5) years (hereinafter referred to as the "Extended Term") commencing
upon the expiration of the original term, provided that Tenant shall give Landlord notice of the exercise of its election at least nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the original term
and further provided that at the time of the exercise of said election Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease. The expression "the original term" means the period of three (3) years
referred to in Article 2. Prior in the exercise by Tenant of said election to extend the original term, the expression "the term of this Lease" or any equivalent expression shall mean the
original term as it may have been then extended. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, all the agreements and conditions in this Lease contained shall apply to said additional period
for which the original term shall be extended as aforesaid. 




32.   OPTION MINIMUM RENT:  



(A)
The first day of the additional period for which the term shall be extended as provided in Article 31 is herein referred to as the "Adjustment Date." As of the Adjustment Date, the annual
minimum rent thereafter payable by Tenant under Article 2 of this Lease shall be increased and shall increase each year of the Extended Term by a fixed percentage equal to "Market Rate" (as
defined herein). The Landlord shall express the term Market Rate as a percentage amount over the then current minimum rent the Tenant is paying in the rental period just prior to the Adjustment Date.
In designating Market Rate as of the Adjustment Date Landlord shall consider, without limitation, the then-current rentals being charged to new tenants for similar industrial space located
in the Boston Massachusetts Metropolitan area, taking into account and giving effect to such considerations as size, condition and location of such Demised Premises and lease term. 


(B)
Within thirty (30) days after Tenant shall exercise its option to extend the term Landlord shall initially designate Market Rate and shall furnish data in support of such designation. If
Tenant disagrees with Landlord's designation of the Market Rate, then Tenant shall have the right, by written notice ("Tenant's Arbitration Notice") delivered within fourteen (14) days after
Tenant has been notified of Landlord's designation, to submit such Market Rate to arbitration as follows. Market Rate shall be determined by arbitrators, one to be chosen by Tenant, one to be chosen
by 



16







 




Landlord,
and a third to be selected, if necessary, as below provided. All arbitrators selected under this paragraph shall be experienced real estate appraisers with substantial experience with
properties located in the Boston, Massachusetts metropolitan area. Landlord and Tenant shall each notify the other of its chosen arbitrator within fifteen (15) days following Tenants
Arbitration Notice and, unless such two arbitrators shall have reached a unanimous decision within thirty (30) days after their designation, then they shall so notify the
then-President of the Greater Boston Real Estate Board and request him or her to select an impartial third arbitrator to act hereunder. Such third arbitrator and the first two chosen shall
hear the parties and their evidence and render their decision within thirty (30) days following the conclusion of such hearing and notify Landlord and Tenant thereof. The unanimous written
decision of the first two chosen without selection and participation of a third arbitrator, or otherwise the written decision of the majority of the three arbitrators chosen and selected as provided
herein, shall be conclusive and binding upon Landlord and Tenant. If within thirty (30) days after Tenant's Arbitration Notice the parties agree upon a single arbitrator or if one party fails
to select an arbitrator, the arbitrator selected by the other shall be the sole arbitrator, and Market Rate shall be determined by such arbitrator. Landlord and Tenant shall bear the expense of their
respective arbitrators. Landlord and Tenant shall bear the expense of the third arbitrator (if any) equally. If the dispute between the Landlord and Tenant as to Market Rate has not been resolved
before the commencement of Tenants obligation to pay minimum rent based upon Market Rate, then Tenant shall pay rent under the Lease in respect of the Premises based upon the Market Rate designated by
Landlord until either the agreement of the parties as to the Market Rate or the decision of the arbitrators, as the case may be, at which time Tenant shall pay any underpayment of rent to Landlord, or
Landlord shall refund any overpayment of rent to the Tenant. 


(C)
Notwithstanding the above, in the event that as of the Adjustment Date the Market Rate, whether designated by Landlord or decided by arbitrators, is equal to or less than a five (5%) percent
increase over the then current minimum rent the Tenant is paying, the Tenant shall pay annual five (5%) percent increases in minimum rent each year of the Extended Term.

  LEASE AGREEMENT  


LEASE
dated as of the 30th day of July 2007, between O'Brien Investment Partners, LLC, a limited liability company duly organized and existing under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts with a mailing address of P.O. Box 1250 Concord, Massachusetts (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), and Al23 Systems, a
corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware with an address of 1 Kingsbury Avenue, Watertown, Massachusetts 02472 (hereinafter referred to as
"Tenant"). 


1.     PREMISES:  



(A) In
consideration of the rents, agreements and conditions herein reserved and contained on the part of Tenant to be paid, performed and observed, Landlord hereby Leases to Tenant, and Tenant
hereby Leases from Landlord, for the term herein set forth, certain premises at 12 Avenue E, Hopkinton, Massachusetts consisting of Ten Thousand (10,000) square
feet of floor area and having dimensions approximately as shown upon Exhibit B (hereinafter referred to as "the Demised Premises"), situated in the Hopkinton Technology
Park (hereinafter referred to as "the Industrial Park"). 


The
Demised Premises are situated upon a certain parcel of land known as Lot 9. Said parcel of land is more particularly described upon Exhibit A
attached hereto and made a part hereof and is herein referred to as "the Entire Parcel." The Demised Premises are situated within, and are a part of, a certain building shown upon Exhibit B
(hereinafter referred to as "the Building") and said Demised Premises are shown outlined by a bold line upon said Exhibit B. For purposes of this Lease, dimensions are measured from the outside
of exterior walls and the center of interior walls. It is understood and agreed that Exhibit B is intended only to show the approximate size and location of the Demised Premises, the Building
and the Entire Parcel and for no other purpose. 


(B) The
Demised Premises are demised with the benefit of and subject to, the nonexclusive rights of Landlord, Tenant and other Tenants of the Building and the Industrial Park, and all persons
having business with any of them, to use, in common, the parking areas, electrical rooms, entrances, vestibules, traffic lanes and walkways upon the Entire Parcel for the purposes of parking and
access, on foot and by vehicles not exceeding the weight for which the same were constructed and for no other purpose, except for any exclusive areas Landlord shall reserve for the parking of trucks
specifically designated by Landlord. Landlord reserves the right, from time to time, to change the size and configuration of said parking areas, traffic lanes and walkways, and to temporarily close
all or any part thereof, to do maintenance and to prevent a dedication thereof or to prevent the accrual of any rights of any person or the public therein. 




2.     TERM:  



The
term of this Lease shall be the period of Three (3) years and Six (6) Months commencing on August 1, 2007 (hereinafter referred
to as the "Commencement Date") and expiring on January 31, 2011. 




3.     MINIMUM RENT:  



For
first (1st) year of the Lease Term hereof, the Tenant shall pay Landlord rent at the rate of Seventy Nine
Thousand Six Hundred Nine Dollars and Ninety Cents ($79,609.90) per year, in equal monthly installments of Six Thousand Six Hundred Thirty Four Dollars
and Sixteen Cents ($6,634.16) which minimum rent shall be paid monthly, in advance, on the first day of each and every calendar month during the First Year of this Lease Term.
Rent for any fraction of a month at the commencement or expiration of the term of this Lease shall be prorated. All payments of rent (minimum and additional) shall be made payable to Landlord and
shall be sent to Landlord 



20







 

at
the address hereinafter provided for the giving of notice to Landlord or to such other person or address as Landlord shall from time to time designate by notice to Tenant. The annual minimum rent
as stated herein is calculated as the sum of the square foot rate ($6.90 per square foot × 10,000 sq. ft.) plus the Tenant's pro rata share of the current real
estate taxes ($52,135.71 × 100/603) plus the Tenant's pro rata share of the Landlord's current insurance cost ($11,842.00 × 100/603). 




4.     REAL ESTATE TAXES:  



(A) Tenant
shall pay, as additional rent, 10,000/60,300 of the real estate taxes upon or about the Building, land, yard and improvements upon the Building for each tax year during the term
hereof in excess of Fifty Two Thousand One Hundred Thirty Five Thousand Dollars and Seventy One Cents ($52,135.71) per year and a pro rata portion
thereof for each tax year, in which the term hereof commences and terminates. Tenant shall pay the amount of such excess to Landlord, on account, in equal monthly installments of
one-twelfth (1/12th) the amount thereof estimated by Landlord to be payable by Tenant on the basis of the immediately preceding tax year, payable monthly, in advance, on the first day of
each and every calendar month during the term of this Lease and a pro rata portion thereof for any fraction of a month at the commencement or termination of the term. After the close of each tax year,
Landlord shall submit to Tenant a computation of the amount actually payable by Tenant under this Section (A) for such year, and if the amount paid by Tenant for such year on account as

within reasonable time thereafter, repair or restore the Demised Premises to substantially the same condition the Demised Premises were in prior to such casualty. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Landlord shall not be obligated to spend for such repairs and restoration any amount in excess of such insurance proceeds, if any, as shall be paid to Landlord as the result of such damage or
destruction, and subject to the prior rights thereto, if any, of any mortgagees. If the damage to the Demised Premises should be so extensive as to render the whole or any part thereof untenable or
unsuitable for use and occupancy by Tenant, a just proportion of the minimum rent, according to the nature and extent of the injury to the Demised Premises, shall be suspended or abated until
occupancy the Demised Premises shall be repaired or restored as provided in the first sentence of this Section (A). It is agreed and understood that if during the term of this Lease either the

26







 

or destruction. It
is also agreed and understood that if during the last six (6) months of the term of this Lease the Demised Premises shall be damaged or destroyed as aforesaid
to the extent of twenty five percent (25%) or more of their insurable value, Tenant at its election, may terminate the term of this Lease

just proportion of the minimum rent, according to the nature and extent of the injury to the Demised Premises, shall be suspended or abated until the time of termination, and minimum rent shall be
apportioned as of the time of termination. If Landlord is required or elects to repair or restore the Demised Premises as hereinabove provided, then Tenant shall resume its business therein. If
Landlord shall not substantially complete repair and restoration of the Demised Premises to the extent required under this Section (A) on or before the one hundred eightieth (180th) day
following the occurrence of such casualty ("the Deadline"), then the term of this Lease shall terminate upon the Deadline unless prior to the Deadline Tenant shall give notice to the Landlord that
Tenant then elects to continue the term of this Lease thereafter, and if Tenant shall so elect then this sentence shall thereafter be void and of no further force or effect. 


(B)
Landlord shall maintain such fire and casualty insurance with respect to the Demised Premises as shall from time to time be required by the holder of a first mortgage upon the Entire Parcel. The
cost to Landlord of any insurance which Landlord shall maintain with respect to the Demised Premises, the Building and/or the Entire Parcel, including, without limitation, fire, so-called
extended coverage, rent insurance, agreed amount, inflation guard, all risk and/or difference-in-conditions coverage, and general comprehensive public liability insurance, is
herein referred to as "Landlord's insurance cost."

Landlord's insurance cost for any calendar year shall exceed Eleven Thousand Eight Hundred Forty Two Dollars ($11,842.00) Tenant shall pay
10,000/60,300 of such excess to Landlord upon demand as additional rent. For the calendar year during which the term of this Lease shall commence and terminate, Tenant shall pay a pro rata portion of
such excess. The determination of Landlord's insurance agent with respect to the amount of any such excess shall be conclusive and finally determinative for purposes hereof. Nothing in this
Section (B) shall be deemed to limit in any way the obligations of Tenant contained in this Lease with respect to the maintaining of any type of insurance whatsoever. 


(C)
Tenant shall not do, or suffer to be done, or keep, or suffer to be kept, or omit to do, anything in, upon or about the Demised Premises, the Building and/or the Entire Parcel which may prevent
the obtaining of any insurance on, or with respect to the Demised Premises, the Building and/or the Entire Parcel or on any property therein, including, without limitation, fire, extended coverage,
public liability insurance and any other insurance referred to in Section (A) hereof, or which may make void or voidable any such insurance or which may create any extra premiums for, or
increase the rate of, any such insurance. If anything shall be done or kept or omitted to be done in, upon or about the Demised Premises which shall create any increased or extra premiums for or
increase the rate of, any such insurance, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies which Landlord may have as a result thereof, Tenant shall pay the increased cost of the same to Landlord
upon demand. In determining whether extra or increased premiums are the result of Tenant's use of the Demised Premises a Schedule issued by the organization making the rates applicable to the Demised
Premises, or a certificate of Landlord's insurance agent, showing the components of such rates, shall be conclusive evidence of the items and charges which comprise the rate of any such insurance and
any increase therein and extra charge therefore.

14.   EMINENT DOMAIN:  



(A)
If after the execution of this Lease and prior to the expiration of the term of this Lease the whole of the Demised Premises shall be taken under the power of eminent domain, or acquired for any
public or quasi-public use by deed in lieu thereof, then the term of this Lease shall cease as of the time when Landlord shall be divested of its title in the Demised Premises, and minimum rent shall
be apportioned and adjusted as of time of termination. 


(B)
If only a part of the Entire Parcel shall be taken under the power of eminent domain, or acquired for any public or quasi-public use by deed in lieu thereof and if as a result thereof the paved
area of the Entire Parcel shall be reduced by more than twenty percent (20%) or the ground floor area of the Building shall be reduced by more than ten percent (10%), and the part remaining shall not
be reasonably adequate for the operation of business conducted in the Demised Premises prior to the taking, either Landlord or Tenant may, at its election terminate the term of this Lease by giving
the other notice of the exercise of its election within twenty days(20) after it shall receive notice of such taking, and termination shall be effective as of the time that possession of the part so
taken shall be required for public or quasi-public use, and minimum rent shall be apportioned and adjusted as of the time of termination. If only a part of the Demised Premises shall be taken under
the power of eminent domain or so acquired and if the term of this Lease shall not be terminated as aforesaid, then the term of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect and Landlord shall,
within a reasonable time after possession is required for public use, repair and restore what may remain of the Entire Parcel and the demised Premises subject to reduction in area as a result thereof
and subject to then existing building and zoning codes, and a just proportion of the minimum rent, according to the nature and extent of the injury to the Demised Premises, shall be suspended or
abated until what may remain of the Demised Premises shall be put into such condition by Landlord, and thereafter proportion of the minimum rent shall be abated for the balance of the term of this
Lease, said proportion to be computed on the basis of the relationship which the ground floor area of the Demised Premises rendered unusable bears to the ground floor area of the Demised Premises
immediately prior thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be obligated to make any such repairs and restoration under this Article which shall cost Landlord any amount in excess of
such damages as shall be paid to Landlord as the result of such taking or deed and not required to be paid by Landlord to the holders of any mortgages upon the Entire Parcel. 


(C)
Landlord reserves to itself, and Tenant assigns to Landlord, all rights to damages accruing on account of any taking under the power of eminent domain or by reason of any such act of any public or
quasi-public authority for which damages are payable. Tenant agrees to execute such instruments of assignment as may be reasonably required by Landlord in any proceeding for the recovery of such
damages if requested by Landlord, and to pay over to Landlord any damages that may be recovered in said proceeding. It is agreed and understood, however, that Landlord does not reserve to itself, and
Tenant does not assign to Landlord, any damages payable for movable trade fixtures installed by Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant at the sole cost of Tenant or any person claiming under
Tenant. 




15.   DEFAULTS:  



(A)
All rent (minimum and additional) and other charges and amounts due and payable under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord shall be payable and paid without demand and without any deduction,
defense, counterclaim or set-off whatsoever. If Landlord shall default under this Lease, Tenant's sole remedies shall be injunctive relief and/or damages, and Tenant shall not have the
right to terminate this Lease or withhold any rent, charge or amount hereunder as a result thereof. A default by the Tenant under this Lease shall be deemed a default under all other Leases Tenant

any part thereof upon execution, attachment or other process of law, or (4) if Tenant shall make an assignment of its property for the benefit of creditors, or (5) if Tenant shall be
declared bankrupt or insolvent according to law, or (6) if any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or arrangement proceedings shall be commenced by Tenant, or (7) if any bankruptcy,

shall not be dismissed within thirty (30) days thereafter, or (8) if Tenant shall vacate or abandon the Demised Premises, then, in any of said events, Landlord lawfully and immediately
or at any time thereafter, and without any further notice or demand, enter into and upon the Demised Premises or any part thereof in the name of the whole, by force or otherwise, and hold the Demised
Premises as if this Lease had not been made, and expel Tenant and those claiming under it and remove its or their property (forcibly, if necessary) without being taken or deemed to be guilty of any
manner of any trespass (or Landlord may send written notice to Tenant of the termination of the term of this Lease), and upon entry as aforesaid (or in the event that Landlord shall send to Tenant
notice of termination as above provided, on the fifth (5th) day next following the date of the sending of such notice), the term of this Lease shall terminate. A default by Tenant under this Lease
shall be deemed a default under all other Leases Tenant may have with Landlord. 


(C)
In case of any such termination, Tenant will indemnify Landlord each month against all loss of rent and all obligations which Landlord may incur by reason of any such termination between the time
of termination and the expiration of the term of this Lease as originally provided in Article 2; or at the election of Landlord, exercised at the time of the termination or at any time
thereafter, Tenant will indemnify Landlord each month until the exercise of the election against all loss of rent and all obligations which Landlord may incur by reason of such termination during the
period between the time of the termination and the exercise of the election and upon the exercise of the election Tenant will pay to Landlord as damages such amount as at the time of the exercise of
the election represents the amount by which the rental value of the Demised Premises for the period from the exercise of the election until the expiration of the term as originally provided in
Article 2 shall be less than the amount of rent and other payments provided herein to be paid by Tenant to Landlord during said period. It is understood and agreed that at the time of the
termination or at any time thereafter, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate damages resulting from a Tenant default, including but not limited to marketing the Demised

Tenant
shall not assign, mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber this Lease or any interest therein, or sublet the whole or any part of the Demised Premises, without obtaining on each occasion the
written consent of Landlord. The foregoing prohibition against assignment and subletting shall be construed to prohibit an assignment or subletting by operation of law. The foregoing prohibition shall
not prohibit the assignment of this Lease, or subletting of the Demised Premises, to a business organization affiliated with Tenant, but, notwithstanding such assignment, Tenant shall remain fully,
primarily and unconditionally liable under this Lease and shall not thereby be released from the performance and observance of all the agreements and conditions on the part of Tenant to be performed

or transferee with Landlord to perform and observe all of the terms and conditions on the part of Tenant to be performed or observed under this Lease. A business organization shall be deemed to be
affiliated with any corporation (a) if such business organization controls such corporation either directly by ownership or a majority of its voting stock or, if publicly held, of such minority
thereof as to give it substantial control of such corporation, or indirectly by ownership of such majority of voting stock of another business corporation so controlling such corporation, or
(b) if such business organization is so controlled by another business organization so controlling such corporation, or (c) if such business organization and such corporation are
substantially controlled by the same stockholders or their families. 




17.   WAIVER OF SUBROGATION:  



Each
of Landlord and Tenant hereby releases the other, to the extent of its insurance coverage, from any and all liability for any loss or damage caused by fire or any of the extended coverage
casualties or any other casualty covered by its insurance, even if such fire, or other casualty shall be brought about by the fault or negligence of the other party, or any persons claiming under it,
however, this release shall be in force and effect only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such time as the releasor's policies of insurance covering such loss or damage shall contain a
clause to the effect that this release shall not affect said policies or the right of the releasor to recover thereunder. Each of Landlord and Tenant agrees that its fire and other casualty insurance
policies will include such a clause so long as the same is obtainable and is includible without extra cost, or if extra cost is chargeable, therefore, so long as the other part pays such extra cost.
If extra cost is chargeable therefore, each party will advise the other thereof and the amount thereof, and the other party at its election, may pay the same but shall not be obligated to do so. 




18.   SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGES:  



Tenant
agrees that upon the request of Landlord, Tenant shall subordinate this Lease and the lien hereof to the lien of any present or future mortgage or mortgages upon the Demised Premises or any
property of which the Demised Premises are a part, irrespective of the time of execution or time of recording of any such mortgage or mortgages. Upon the request of Landlord, Tenant shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver any and all instruments deemed by Landlord necessary or desirable, including but not limited to the Tenant's most recent financial statement or statements to give effect to or
notice of such subordination or for any re-financing may be contemplating or sale the Building the Landlord may be contemplating. Tenant shall agree, in substance, that, if the holder of
any such mortgage or any person claiming thereunder, including, without limitation, a purchaser at foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, shall succeed to the interest of Landlord in this
Lease, Tenant shall recognize, and attorn to, such holder or other person as its Landlord 



30







 

under
this Lease, and shall enter into such further agreements with such mortgagee as such mortgagee shall request. Tenant also agrees that if it shall fail at any time to execute, acknowledge or
deliver any such instrument requested by Landlord, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies available to it, execute, acknowledge and deliver such instrument as the
attorney-in-fact of Tenant and in Tenant's name; and Tenant hereby makes, constitutes and irrevocably appoints Landlord as its attorney-in-fact for that
purpose. The word "mortgage" as used herein includes mortgages, deeds of trust and other similar instruments and modifications, consolidations, extensions, renewals, replacements and substitutes
thereof. 




19.   ACCESS TO PREMISES:  



Landlord
shall have the right to enter upon the Demised Premises or any part thereof, without charge, at any time during normal business hours after verbally informing Tenant, and in case of
emergency, at any time, to inspect the same, to show the Demised Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or Tenants, to make or facilitate any repairs, alterations, additions or improvements to
the Demised Premises and/or the Building, including, without limitation, to install and maintain in, and remove from, any part of the Demised Premises, pipes, wires and other conduits (but nothing in
this Article 19 contained shall obligate Landlord to make any repairs, alterations, additions, or improvements); and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent or
damages by reason of any of the foregoing. For the period commencing nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the term of this Lease, Landlord may maintain "For Lease" signs on the front or
any part of the exterior of the Demised Premises. 




20.   HOLDING OVER:  



If
Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant shall remain in possession of the Demised Premises or any part thereof after the expiration of the term of this Lease without any agreement in writing
between Landlord and Tenant with respect thereto, prior to the acceptance of rent by Landlord the person remaining in possession shall be deemed a Tenant-at-sufferance. After
acceptance of rent by Landlord, the person remaining in possession shall be deemed a Tenant from calendar month to calendar month subject to the provisions of this Lease insofar as the same may be
made applicable to a tenancy from month to month; except that during such tenancy from month to month, minimum rent shall be payable at a rate four times the rate in effect immediately prior to the
expiration of the term. This provision is used due to the uncertainty created by the Tenant failing to vacate the premises at the expiration of the Lease term. Tenant's failure to complete restoration
shall be construed as a holdover until such time as restoration is complete. Such holdover rental rate shall be deemed a liquidated damage due to the anticipated or actual harm caused by the Tenant
failing to vacate the premises at the termination of the Lease term. 




21.   WAIVERS:  



Failure
of either party to complain of any act or omission on the part of the other party, no matter how long the same may continue, shall not be deemed to be a waiver by either party of any rights
hereunder. No waiver by either party at any time, express or implied, of any breach of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed a waiver of a breach of any other provision of this Lease or a
consent to any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision. If any action by Tenant shall require Landlord's consent or approval, Landlord's consent to or approval of such action on any one
occasion shall not be deemed a consent to or approval of said action on any subsequent occasion or a consent to or approval of any other action on the same or any subsequent occasion. No payment by
Tenant or acceptance by Landlord of a lesser amount than shall be due from Tenant to Landlord shall be deemed to be anything but payment on account, and the acceptance by Landlord of a check for a
lesser amount with an endorsement or statement thereon or upon a 



31







 

letter
accompanying said check that said lesser amount is payment in full shall not be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept said check without prejudice to recover the balance
due or pursue any other remedy. Any and all rights and remedies which Landlord may have under this Lease or by operation of law, either at law or in equity, upon any breach, shall be distinct,
separate and cumulative and shall not be deemed inconsistent with each other; and no one of them, whether exercised by Landlord or not, shall be deemed to be in exclusion of any other, and any two or
more or all of such rights and remedies may be exercised at the same time. 




22.   RULES AND REGULATIONS:  



Tenant
shall observe and comply with, and will cause its subtenants, and its and their employees and agents, to observe and comply with reasonable rule and regulations from time to time promulgated by
Landlord for the benefit and prosperity of the Industrial Park, any, if in which the Demised Premises are situated, including without limitation, the prohibition or restriction of any activities upon
the outdoor areas of the Demised Premises other than parking, loading and unloading. However, neither Tenant nor any person claiming under it shall be bound by any such rules and regulations until
such time Tenant receives a copy thereof. 




23.   QUIET ENJOYMENT:  



Landlord
agrees that upon Tenant's paying the rent and performing and observing the agreements, conditions and other provisions on its part to be performed and observed, Tenant shall and may
peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Demised Premises during the term of this Lease without any manner of hindrance or molestation from Landlord or any person claiming under Landlord,
subject however, to the terms of this Lease any instruments having a prior lien. 




24.   FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE:  



If
Tenant shall make any default or defaults under this Lease and shall fail to cure the same within five (5) days after Landlord gives Tenant notice thereof, then, Landlord may, at its
election, immediately or at any time thereafter, without waiving any claim for breach of agreement, and without further notice to Tenant, cure default or defaults for the account of Tenant, except
when reasonably deemed necessary by Landlord to prevent injury to person or property Landlord may cure such default without waiting five (5) days, but after notice to Tenant, and, in either
case, the cost to Landlord thereof shall be deemed to be additional rent due upon demand and shall be added to the installment of rent next accruing or to any subsequent installment of rent, at the
election Landlord.

agreed that from and after said transfer the transferee shall be liable for performance and observance of said agreements and conditions. If Tenant shall consist of more than one person or if there

all of which other provisions shall remain in full force and effect; and it is the intention of the parties hereto that if any provision of this Lease is capable of two constructions one of which
would render the provision void and the other of which would render the provision valid, then the provision shall have the meaning which renders it valid. 


(C)

or effect. This Lease shall not be modified in any way except by a writing subscribed by both parties.

26.   DELAYS:

any case where either party hereto is required to do any act other than the payment of money, delays caused by or resulting from Act of God, war, civil commotion, fire or other casualty, labor
difficulties, shortages of labor, material or equipment, government regulations or other causes beyond such party's reasonable control shall not be counted in determining the time during which such
work
shall be completed, whether such time be designated by a fixed time or "a reasonable time". In any case where work is to be paid for out of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, due allowance
shall be made, both to the party required to perform such work and to the party required to make such payment, for delays in the collection of such proceeds and awards.

The
captions used as headings for the various Articles of this Lease are used only as a matter of convenience for reference, and are not to be considered a part of this Lease or to be used in
determining the intent of the parties of this Lease. 




29.   BROKERS COMMISSION:  



Tenant
hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant has dealt with no brokers in connection with this Lease other than O'Brien Commercial Real Estate, Inc ("the Broker"). Tenant shall save
Landlord harmless from, and indemnify Landlord against, all loss or damage (including without limitation the cost of defending same) arising from any claim by any other brokers alleging they have
dealt with Tenant. 




30.   RENT ESCALATION:  



Commencing
with the beginning of the second (2nd) year of the term hereof the Tenant shall pay Landlord rent at the rate of  Eighty Three Thousand Five Hundred Ninety Dollars and
Thirty Two Cents ($83,590.32) per year, in equal monthly installments of  Six Thousand Nine Hundred Sixty Five Dollars and Eighty Six Cents ($6,965.86). Commencing with the
beginning of the third
(3rd) year of the term hereof and for the balance of the term thereof remaining, the Tenant shall pay the Landlord rent at the rate of  Eighty Seven Thousand Seven Hundred Sixty Nine Dollars
and Eight Cents ($87,769.80) per year, in equal monthly installments of  Seven Thousand Three Hundred Fourteen Dollars and Fifteen Cents ($7,314.15). 




31.   OPTION TO EXTEND:  



Tenant
shall have the right, at its election, to extend the original term of this Lease for an additional period of Five (5) years (hereinafter referred to as the "Extended Term) commencing
upon the expiration of the original term, provided that Tenant shall give Landlord notice of the exercise of its election at least nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the original term
and further provided that at the time of the exercise of said election Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease. The expression "the original term" means the period of three (3) years
and six (6) months referred to in Article 2. Prior to the exercise by Tenant of said election to extend the original term, the expression "the term of this Lease" or any equivalent
expression shall mean the original term as it may have been then extended. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, all the agreements and conditions in this Lease contained shall apply
to said additional period for which the original term shall be extended as aforesaid. 




32.   OPTION MINIMUM RENT:  



(A)
The first day of the additional period for which the term shall be extended as provided in Article 31 is herein referred to as the "Adjustment Date." As of the Adjustment Date, the annual
minimum rent thereafter payable by Tenant under Article 2 of this Lease shall be increased and shall increase each year of the Extended Term by a fixed percentage equal to "Market Rate" (as
defined herein). The Landlord shall express the term Market Rate as a percentage amount over the then current minimum rent the Tenant is paying in the rental period just prior to the Adjustment Date.
In designating Market Rate as of the Adjustment Date Landlord shall consider, without limitation, the then-current rentals being charged to
new tenants for similar industrial space located in the Boston Massachusetts Metropolitan area, taking into account and giving effect to such considerations as size, condition and location of such
Demised Premises and lease term. 


(B)
Within thirty (30) days after Tenant shall exercise its option to extend the term Landlord shall initially designate Market Rate and shall furnish data in support of such designation. if
Tenant 



35







 

disagrees
with Landlord's designation of the Market Rate, then Tenant shall have the right, by written notice ("Tenant's Arbitration Notice") delivered within fourteen (14) days after Tenant
has been notified of Landlord's designation, to submit such Market Rate to arbitration as follows. Market Rate shall be determined by arbitrators, one to be chosen by Tenant, one to be chosen by
Landlord, and a third to be selected, if necessary, as below provided. All arbitrators selected under this paragraph shall be experienced real estate appraisers with substantial experience with
properties located in the Boston, Massachusetts metropolitan area. Landlord and Tenant shall each notify the other of its chosen arbitrator within fifteen (15) days following Tenants
Arbitration Notice and, unless such two arbitrators shall have reached a unanimous decision within thirty (30) days after their designation, then they shall so notify the
then-President of the Greater Boston Real Estate Board and request him or her to select an impartial third arbitrator to act hereunder. Such third arbitrator and the first two chosen shall
hear the parties and their evidence and render their decision within thirty (30) days following the conclusion of such hearing and notify Landlord and Tenant thereof. The unanimous written
decision of the first two chosen without selection and participation of a third arbitrator, or otherwise the written decision of the majority of the three arbitrators chosen and selected as provided
herein, shall be conclusive and binding upon Landlord and Tenant. If within thirty (30) days after Tenant's Arbitration Notice the parties agree upon a single arbitrator or if one party fails
to select an arbitrator, the arbitrator selected by the other shall be the sole arbitrator, and Market Rate shall be determined by such arbitrator. Landlord and Tenant shall bear the expense of their
respective arbitrators. Landlord and Tenant shall bear the expense of the third arbitrator (if any) equally. If the dispute between the Landlord and Tenant as to Market Rate has not been resolved
before the commencement of Tenants obligation to pay minimum rent based upon Market Rate, then Tenant shall pay rent under the Lease in respect of the Premises based upon the Market Rate designated by
Landlord until either the agreement of the parties as to the Market Rate or the decision of the arbitrators, as the case may be, at which time Tenant shall pay any underpayment of rent to Landlord, or
Landlord shall refund any overpayment of rent to the Tenant. 


(C)
Notwithstanding the above, in the event that as of the Adjustment Date the Market Rate, whether designated by Landlord or decided by arbitrators, is equal to or less than a five (5%) percent
increase over the then current minimum rent the Tenant is paying, the Tenant shall pay annual five (5%) percent increases in minimum rent each year of the Extended Term.
