sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto covenant and
agree as follows:

<PAGE>

1.        SUBLET PREMISES; PRIME LEASE. (a) Sublandlord hereby leases to
     Subtenant, and Subtenant hereby leases and hires from Sublandlord, the
     Sublet Premises together with the appurtenant rights in the common building
     areas as described in Section 2.2 of the Original Lease and the right to
     use, in accordance with the terms of the Prime Lease and only to the extent
     that Sublandlord is allowed by Prime Landlord to use them the following
     facilities, amenities and services: the Standard Building Services
     described in Exhibit D of the Prime Lease; the Extra Services described in
     Section 3.5 of the Prime Lease. In addition, Subtenant shall have the right
     to use up to, seven (7) parking spaces in the garage adjacent to the
     Building at a cost to be paid to Prime Landlord as determined by Prime
     Landlord or its parking management agent, in its sole discretion, in
     accordance with the terms of Exhibit A of the Prime Lease, upon and subject
     to the terms and conditions hereinafter stated or incorporated herein by
     reference. Commencing on the Sublease Commencement Date, Subtenant shall
     lease three (3) parking spaces, Subtenant shall have the right to increase
     (up to a maximum of seven (7)) or decrease, from time to time, the number
     of parking spaces it desires to lease. For purposes of reference only and
     not as a representation or warranty of any kind, the current monthly charge
     for a parking space in the above-referenced adjacent garage is $210.

     (b)  Subtenant shall use the Sublet Premises only for the Permitted Uses
          set forth in Exhibit A to the Original Lease. Except to the extent
          modified by the terms of this Sublease or the consent of the Prime
          Landlord to this Sublease, it is intended that Subtenant shall have
          such rights with respect to its use of the Sublet Premises as
          Sublandlord has under the terms of the Prime Lease. In connection with
          its use and occupancy of the Sublet Premises, Subtenant shall observe
          and comply with those terms, covenants and conditions of the Prime
          Lease, as if Subtenant were named as Tenant or Subtenant thereunder,
          respectively, except where the context shall not admit. Subtenant
          agrees that it will neither suffer nor permit any act or omission
          attributable to Subtenant or its officers, employees or agents that
          would cause any default under the Prime Lease. Sublandlord will not do
          or suffer or permit anything to be done which would result in a
          default under the Prime Lease or cause the Prime Lease to be
          terminated. In the event of any inconsistency between the Prime Lease
          and this Sublease, the provisions of the Prime Lease shall control
          with the exception that the following sections anchor portions of the
          Prime Lease are expressly excluded from this Sublease (i.e. they shall
          not be deemed to be incorporated into this Sublease to the extent they
          are inapplicable or they are superseded by specific provisions hereof:
          Section 3 (Rent and Other Payments); Section 12.2 (Notices); Section
          12.8 (Brokerage); Section 12.11 (Security Deposit); Section 12.12
          (Financial Reporting); Section 12.14 (Guaranty); Exhibit A (except for
          Parking Privileges and Permitted Uses); Exhibit C; First Amendment to
          Lease; Second Amendment to Lease; Third Amendment to Lease; Fourth
          Amendment to Lease; Fifth Amendment to Lease; Sixth Amendment to Lease
          and Seventh Amendment to Lease.

     (c)  So long as Subtenant shall comply with its obligations under this
          Sublease within applicable grace periods, Sublandlord shall not
          interfere with Subtenant's quiet enjoyment of the Sublet Premises
          throughout the Term, subject to the terms and provisions of this
          Sublease.

                                        2

     (d)  Except to the extent provided in Section 1(b) hereof, this Sublease is
          subject and subordinate to the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease
          and to the written consent of the Prime Landlord of this Sublease.

2.        SUBLET PREMISES CONDITION AND ALTERATION. (a) Except as otherwise set
     forth below, Subtenant shall accept the Sublet Premises in its "as is"
     condition on the date (the "Sublease Commencement Date") tendered by
     Sublandlord., and shall promptly reimburse Sublandlord after receipt of an
     invoice with relevant documentation of the costs of preparing the Sublet
     Premises for Subtenant's occupancy including but not limited to changing
     locks, and reconfiguration of the security system to provide controlled
     access to the Sublet Premises.

     (b)  If Subtenant shall desire any additions, alterations, renovations,
          improvements, or reconstruction of any portion of the Sublet Premises
          during occupancy, such additions, alterations, renovations,
          improvements, or reconstruction shall (i) be approved in advance and
          in writing, both in terms of scope and cost, by the Sublandlord, in
          its reasonable discretion; (ii) be performed by and/or overseen by
          Sublandlord and/or contractors (which will be mutually acceptable to
          Sublandlord and Subtenant) working directly for Sublandlord, and (iii)
          based upon the agreed cost of work, be paid in advance by Subtenant to
          Sublandlord prior to the commencement of work. At the conclusion of
          the work, Sublandlord and Subtenant shall reconcile payments received
          to the actual project cost. Sublandlord shall promptly reimburse the
          Subtenant for any payments received in excess of actual costs.
          Conversely, Subtenant shall promptly pay to Sublandlord the unpaid
          balance of actual costs.

     (c)  Subtenant shall pay to the Sublandlord an amount equal to seventy-five
          percent (75%) of the excess alteration costs over $25,000 (the
          "Additional Restoration Cost"). This Additional Restoration Cost
          payment will be added to the Security Deposit as described in
          Paragraph 5 below and shall be used as additional security for the
          potential incurrence of Surrender Costs as described in Paragraph
          11(b) below. The contractor/contractors which do the work which may be
          required at the end of the term of this Sublease in accordance with
          Paragraph 11(b) below will be reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord.

3.        TERM. (a) The term of this Sublease (the "Term") shall commence on the
     date the Sublandlord delivers to the Subtenant the Sublet Premises which
     shall also be the date first affixed at the beginning of this Sublease
     document, unless otherwise indicated herein ("Sublease Commencement Date").
     It is the intent of both the Subtenant and the Sublandlord that the
     expiration date of the Term shall be the last day of the eighteenth (18th)
     month following such commencement date unless this Sublease is sooner
     terminated pursuant to its termination provisions. Sublandlord shall no
     later than four (4) months prior to the end of the term of this Sublease,
     provide Subtenant written notice of its intent to either (i) take over the
     Sublet Premises at the end of the Sublease term for its own use and/or
     occupancy, or (ii) continue to sublease the Sublet Premises in which case
     Sublandlord and Subtenant shall negotiate in "good faith" for a period of
     thirty days following Sublandlord's notice, the terms and conditions under
     which the Sublease would

                                        3
<PAGE>

     be extended, including but not limited to the rent to be paid and the
     length of the extension period. In the event that Sublandlord and Subtenant
     are not able to reach an agreement regarding the terms and conditions of an
     extension period in thirty days as described in 3(a)(ii) above, Subtenant
     shall vacate the premises at the end of the Sublease term and Sublandlord
     shall have the right to sublease the Sublet Premises or any portion thereof
     to a third party.

     (b)  Subtenant is aware that the Sublandlord's Prime Lease expires on July
          31, 2002 ("Prime Lease Termination Date"). Sublandlord hereby
          represents that, pursuant to Section 2.6 of the Prime Lease,
          Sublandlord has exercised its option to extend the term of the Prime
          Lease until July 31, 2007. Sublandlord represents and covenants that
          (i) there has not been any Event of Default on the part of the
          Sublandlord under the Prime Lease; and (ii) as of the date of
          Sublandlord's exercise of the extension option and as of the
          commencement date of the extension term of the Prime Lease (August 1,
          2002), Sublandlord will be in occupancy of fifty-one percent (51%) of
          the Prime Lease Premises, but in no event less than the rentable
          square footage equal to the Original Premises. If for any reason, the
          Prime Lease is not so extended beyond the Prime Lease Termination
          Date, Sublandlord shall so notify the Subtenant to this effect
          immediately. In such event, this Sublease shall be terminated and
          Sublandlord will reimburse Subtenant reasonable damages, costs, fees
          and expenses incurred by Subtenant resulting from such early
          termination including, without limitation, reasonable costs of
          relocating, reasonable costs associated with the construction of the
          Tenant Work (including architectural and engineering fees), reasonable
          moving costs, and other reasonable costs directly associated with the
          interruption of Subtenant's business. The aggregate of such
          reimbursement shall not exceed $35,000 and shall be considered
          "liquidated damages" and Sublandlord shall not have any further
          liability to Subtenant with respect to termination of the Prime Lease
          on the Prime Lease Termination Date. In addition, in the event of
          early termination under this Section 3, Subtenant shall not be
          required to surrender the Sublet Premises in the condition required
          under Section 11(b) hereof and only if required by Prime Landlord,
          Sublandlord shall remove such alterations which would be necessary to
          facilitate future occupancy of the Sublet Premises at Sublandlord's
          expense.

4.        RENT. (a) As the payment of monthly base rent ("Monthly Base Rent")
     under this Sublease for the Term, Subtenant shall pay Sublandlord the
     amount of $14,785.83. Subtenant shall pay the Monthly Base Rent to
     Sublandlord, without any offset, abatement or deduction whatever except as
     may occur in accordance with the provisions of this Sublease, in advance on
     the first day of each calendar month included in the Term (prorated for any
     portion of a calendar month at the beginning or end of the Term), with the
     first month's rent being paid upon Subtenant's execution of this Sublease.

     (b)  From and after the Commencement Date, and throughout the Term of this
          Sublease, Subtenant shall pay Sublandlord monthly together with its
          payment of Monthly Base Rent, the amount of $8,825.28 which represents
          Subtenant's allocable share of all additional sums, costs, expenses
          and other payments that

                                        4
<PAGE>

     Sublandlord is obligated to pay Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease,
     including without limitation, Prime Landlord's operating costs and real
     estate taxes, as well as reasonable additional laboratory services
     including reasonable and customary to the industry autoclave, glass
     washing, shipping and receiving and all reasonable utility expenses
     including but not limited to electricity and gas, and all services and
     amenities listed in Section 1(a) hereof.

     (c)  Sublandlord reserves the right to increase the charges described in
          paragraph (b) above in the event that Sublandlord incurs actual
          substantial and unforeseen increases in the costs to operate the
          Sublet Premises that are outside the control of Sublandlord and in
          such case, Sublandlord shall deliver to Subtenant copies of any
          written notices, bills or invoices received either by Sublandlord from
          Prime Landlord under Section 3.3 of the Prime Lease or directly from
          vendors and/or service providers. Examples of such uncontrollable
          costs include electricity and gas utility costs, real estate taxes,
          and costs passed through by the Prime Landlord.

     (d)  In addition to the costs described in paragraph (b) above, Subtenant
          shall pay directly to the provider of the service all charges for
          separately metered utilities serving the Sublet Premises.

5.        SECURITY DEPOSIT. Together with its execution and delivery of this
     Sublease, Subtenant shall deposit with Sublandlord, as the security deposit
     under this Sublease (the "Security Deposit") cash in the amount of
     $47,402.22. The Security Deposit will be held in a segregated,
     interest-bearing account as security for Subtenant's performance of its
     obligations under this Sublease, for and during the Term. The Security
     Deposit with all interest earned thereon shall be returned to Subtenant
     within thirty (30) days after the termination of this Sublease except that
     portion of the Security Deposit required to restore the Sublet Premises in
     accordance with Section 11(b) below ("Restoration Security"). Any remaining
     portion of the Restoration Security together with all interest earned
     thereon shall be returned to Subtenant upon the earlier of (i) one-hundred
     eighty (180) days after the termination of this Sublease or the date that
     the Sublet Premises are restored to in accordance with Section 11(b) below,
     provided there exists no breach of any undertaking of Subtenant and
     provided that all Surrender costs as described in Paragraph 11(b) have been
     paid in full. If all or any part of the Security Deposit is applied to an
     obligation of Subtenant hereunder during the Term, Subtenant shall within
     five (5) business days, upon written request by Sublandlord, restore the
     Security Deposit to its original amount. Subtenant shall not have the right
     to call upon Sublandlord to apply all or any part of the Security Deposit
     to cure any default, fulfill any obligation, or make any Base Rent or
     operating cost payment of Subtenant, but such use shall be solely in the
     discretion of Sublandlord.

6.        BUILDING SERVICES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY. At no additional charge (a)
     Sublandlord shall provide Subtenant certain laboratory support services as
     listed in Exhibit C-1 attached hereto (b) certain existing lab equipment
     and office furniture in the Sublet Premises will remain for use thereof by
     Subtenant. Attached hereto as Exhibit C-2

                                        5
<PAGE>

     is a list of such equipment and furniture as well as a description of its
     general condition as of the date of this Sublease (the "Sublandlord's
     Property").

7.        INSURANCE. In addition to any insurance coverage required under the
     Original Lease (a) Subtenant shall obtain prior to Subtenant's occupancy or
     use of the Sublet Premises, and shall keep in force at all times
     thereafter, with respect to the Sublet Premises, (i) Workmen's Compensation
     Insurance as required by applicable law and (ii) Commercial General
     Liability Insurance in an amount not less than $2,000,000. Prior to the
     commencement of the Term, Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord either a
     certificate of such insurance or a duplicate original policy, evidencing
     such coverage and listing Sublandlord as an additional insured. Such
     insurance may be maintained under a blanket policy affecting other
     locations of Subtenant and its affiliated business organizations.

     (b)  Any contractor responsible for the construction of any alternations,
          additions or improvements in the Sublet Premises shall be required to
          keep in effect, until the completion of same and with respect to the
          Sublet Premises, (i) Workmen's Compensation Insurance as required by
          applicable law and (ii) Commercial General Liability Insurance in an
          amount not less than $2,000,000 (unless a lower amount is accepted by
          Sublandlord). Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord either a
          certificate of such insurance or a duplicate original policy,
          evidencing such coverage and listing Sublandlord and Prime Landlord as
          additional insureds.

     (c)  Sublandlord agrees with Subtenant that Sublandlord shall continue to
          maintain such casualty and liability insurance covering Sublandlord
          and the Sublet Premises as may be required under the provisions of the
          Prime Sublease and shall name Subtenant as an additional insured.

     (d)  Any property insurance carried by either party with respect to the
          Sublet Premises and property therein or occurrences thereon shall,
          without additional premium, or with an additional premium which the
          other party agrees to pay, include a clause or endorsement denying to
          the insurer rights of subrogation against the other party to the
          extent rights have been waived by the insured prior to occurrence of
          injury or loss. Each party, notwithstanding any provisions of this
          Sublease to the contrary, hereby waives any rights of recovery against
          the other for injury or loss due to hazards covered by such party's
          insurance, to the extent of the waiver of subrogation referred to in
          the preceding sentence or in any party's insurance. Such waiver shall
          be inclusive of any deductible or self-insured retentions.

8.        ASSIGNMENT; SUBLEASING. Subtenant shall not sublet the Subleased
     Premises without Sublandlord's prior written consent which consent may be
     withheld in Sublandlord's sole discretion and the consent of the Prime
     Landlord to the extent required under the Prime Lease. Subtenant shall not
     assign this Sublease under any circumstances except in the event the need
     for such assignment arises due the merger, acquisition of all or a majority
     interest in the Subtenant by another entity in which case the prior written
     consent of the Sublandlord shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed
     longer than ten (10) business days from Subtenant's written request for

                                        6
<PAGE>

     Sublandlord's written consent and the Prime Landlord's consent shall be
     obtained if required.

9.        Events of Default by Subtenant; Indemnification.

     (a)  It shall be an Event of Default under this Sublease if any one or more
          of the following shall occur: (i) Subtenant shall fail in the
          performance of any of its obligations to pay within five (5) days
          written notice of when due any Monthly Fixed Rent or additional rent
          hereunder, or (ii) within fifteen (15) days after written notice from
          Sublandlord to Subtenant specifying any other default or failure to
          perform, Subtenant has not corrected such failure (provided, however,
          that if such failure cannot with diligent effort be corrected within
          such 15-day period, and if Subtenant has commenced to correct such
          failure within the 15-day period and proceeds diligently thereafter to
          pursue such correction to completion, Subtenant shall have such
          additional time before such failure becomes an Event of Default) or
          (iii) any assignment shall be made by Subtenant for the benefit of
          creditors, or (iv) Subtenant's leasehold interest shall be taken on
          execution, or (v) a petition is filed by Subtenant for adjudication as
          a bankrupt, or for reorganization or an arrangement under any
          provision of the Bankruptcy Act as then in force and effect, or (vi)
          an involuntary petition under any of the provisions of said Bankruptcy
          Act is filed against Subtenant, or (viii) Subtenant shall dissolve or
          merge into another entity whereby the merged entity is materially less
          creditworthy, as determined on a reasonable basis, than Subtenant was
          on September 1, 2001.

     (b)  If an Event of Default shall occur, Sublandlord, in addition to and
          not in limitation of any rights otherwise available to it, shall have
          the same rights and remedies with respect to such Event of Default as
          are provided to Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease with respect to
          an Event of Default by Sublandlord thereunder, and Subtenant shall
          have all of the obligations of Sublandlord under the Prime Lease with
          respect to any such Event of Default.

     (c)  In the Event of a Default by Subtenant in the performance of any of
          its obligations hereunder, Sublandlord may, at its option and after
          reasonable notice to Subtenant, and without waiving any other remedies
          for such default set forth in this Sublease or provided by law or by
          incorporation by reference of the Prime Lease or the Prime Sublease,
          may cure such default for the account of Subtenant; and any reasonable
          out-of-pocket amount paid or incurred by Sublandlord in so doing shall
          be deemed paid or incurred for the account of Subtenant; and Subtenant
          agrees to reimburse Sublandlord therefor and save Sublandlord harmless
          therefrom. If Subtenant shall fail to reimburse Sublandlord upon
          demand for any amount paid for the account of Subtenant hereunder,
          said amount shall be added to, and become due as a part of, the next
          payment of rent due hereunder.

     (d)  Subtenant hereby exonerates, indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless
          Sublandlord from and against all claims, suits, obligations,
          liabilities, damages

                                        7
<PAGE>

     and reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting from
     the failure by Subtenant to perform, fulfill or observe Subtenant's
     representations, warranties or agreements set forth in this Sublease.

     (e)  Sublandlord hereby exonerates, indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless
          Subtenant from and against all claims, suits, obligations,
          liabilities, damages and reasonable costs, including reasonable
          attorney's fees, resulting from the failure by Sublandlord to perform,
          fulfill or observe Sublandlord's representations, warranties or
          agreements set forth in this Sublease.

10.       SUBTENANT'S ACCESS TO THE SUBLEASED PREMISES. Subject to the terms and

     to the Sublet Premise twenty-four hours per day, seven days a week,

11.       SURRENDER, SURRENDER COSTS, AND HOLDOVER. (a) At the expiration or
     earlier termination of this Sublease, Subtenant shall surrender the Sublet
     Premises to Sublandlord, broom clean, with all additions and improvements
     thereto, in as good condition as on the date of delivery to Subtenant or as
     the Sublet Premises may be put in during the term of this Sublease,
     reasonable wear and tear, damage by casualty or as a result of the exercise
     of eminent domain excepted.

     (b)  In the event Sublandlord performed additions or alterations to the
          Sublet Premises pursuant to Paragraph 2(b) above, upon surrendering
          the Sublet Premises by the Subtenant at the expiration of the Term,
          Sublandlord reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to (i) retain
          any and all such alterations in the Sublet Premises; (ii) remove such
          alterations which would be necessary to facilitate future occupancy of

          from the Security Deposit to cover the costs of said removals for a
          period after the expiration or earlier termination of the Sublease not
          to exceed one-hundred eighty (180) days.

     (c)  If Subtenant shall hold over, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord (i)
          one hundred percent fifty (150%) of the total of the Monthly Base Rent

          Subtenant shall remain in possession of the Sublet Premises or any
          part thereof after the termination of this Sublease, whether by lapse
          of time or otherwise, and (ii) any and all damages sustained by
          Sublandlord on account thereof including, but not limited to
          consequential and indirect damages. The provisions of this Paragraph
          11(c) shall not operate as a waiver by Sublandlord of any right of
          re-entry provided in this Sublease.

          Lease.

2.   PREMISES AND TERM

from Landlord, for the Term, the Original Premises. Landlord also hereby leases
to Tenant, and Tenant also hereby leases from Landlord, the Temporary Office
Space as contemplated by Section 2.8. The Premises shall exclude the entry and
main lobby of the Building, first floor elevator lobby, first floor mail room,
the common stairways and stairwells, elevators and elevator wells, boiler room,
sprinklers, sprinkler rooms, elevator rooms, mechanical rooms, loading and
receiving areas, electric and telephone closets, janitor closets, Building
shower room, and pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant fixtures and
equipment serving exclusively or in common other parts of the Building. If the
Premises at any time includes less than the entire rentable floor area of any
floor of the Building, the Premises shall also exclude the common corridors,
vestibules, walkways and bridges, elevator lobby and toilets located on such
floor. Tenant acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth in this Lease,
there have been no representations or warranties made by or on behalf of
Landlord with respect to the Premises, the Building or the Property or with
respect to the suitability of any of them for the conduct of Tenant's business.
The Premises are being leased hereunder in their current "as is" condition,
including the laboratory build-out and fixed and movable equipment listed on
Exhibit I located in the Alkermes Space (as defined in Exhibit A). Subject to
the representations of Landlord set forth in Section 12.20, which representation
shall survive such occupancy, the taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant
shall conclusively establish that the Premises and the Building were at such
time in satisfactory condition, order and repair. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
however, Landlord represents that Tenant will have the right to draw upon the
building systems up to the allocable share thereof described in Exhibit L for
use by Tenant in connection with its alterations to and occupancy of the
Premises.

     2.2  APPURTENANT RIGHTS. Tenant shall have, as appurtenant to the Premises,
the nonexclusive right to use in common with others, subject to reasonable rules
of general applicability to occupants of the Building from time to time made by
Landlord of which Tenant is given notice: (i) the entry, vestibules and main
lobby of the Building, first floor mailroom, atrium bridges and walkways, the
common stairways, Building shower room, elevators, elevator wells, boiler room,
elevator rooms, sprinkler rooms, mechanical rooms, electric and telephone
closets, janitor closets and the pipes, sprinklers, ducts, conduits, wires and
appurtenant fixtures and equipment serving the Premises in common with others,
(ii) common walkways and

                                        3
<PAGE>

driveways necessary or reasonably convenient for access to the Building, (iii)
access to loading area and freight elevator subject to rules and regulations
then in effect, and (iv) if the Premises at any time include less than the
entire rentable floor area of any floor, the common toilets, corridors,
vestibules, bridges and walkways, and elevator lobby of such floor. Tenant shall
also have as an appurtenant right to the Premises the right to use the walkways
adjacent to the atrium of the Building on each floor of the Building, the entire
rentable space of which is leased by Tenant, except the first floor of the
Building, for reception and/or greeting areas subject, however, to reasonable
rules and regulations of general applicability to such atrium walkways from time
to time made by Landlord of which Tenant shall have been given written notice.
Tenant shall also have, as an appurtenant right to the Premises, the right to
use such portions of the roof of the Building as Tenant shall require for the
installation of mechanical equipment, skylights, etc., not exceeding Tenant's
proportionate share of the capacity thereof in terms of space, live load limits
and otherwise, subject to Landlord's approval rights pursuant to Section 4.
Attached as Exhibit C-3 to the Work Letter is a plan describing the available
space on the roof of the Building. Without limitation of anything otherwise
provided in this Lease, none of Tenant's installations of equipment on the roof,
and any required interior and/or exterior ducts, may exceed the live load limits
of the Building established by the Building Code or the Base Building System
capacity as allocated to Tenant as specified in Exhibit F. Tenant shall also
have the appurtenant right to use any University Park facilities and amenities
made available from time to time for general use by office and R & D tenants of
University Park, subject to any reasonable Rules and Regulations of general
applicability promulgated by Landlord from time to time of which Tenant has been
given advance written notice.

     2.3  LANDLORD'S RESERVATIONS. Landlord reserves the right from time to
time, without unreasonable interference with Tenant's use: (i) to install, use,
maintain, repair, replace and relocate for service to the Premises and other
parts of the Building, or either, pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant
fixtures and equipment, wherever located in the Premises or the Building, and
(ii) to alter or relocate any other common facility, provided that substitutions
are substantially equivalent or better and provided that Landlord provides
Tenant with reasonable prior notice and complies with Tenant's security and
safety procedures as provided in Section 6.5 of this Lease. Any installation or
relocation work in the Premises performed by Landlord pursuant to this Section
2.3 must be concealed behind, beneath or within the partitioning, existing
building columns, floors, perimeter walls and ceilings of the Premises or
otherwise completely furred and finished at points immediately adjacent to any
of the foregoing in such manner as to reasonably harmonize with the interior
decoration of the Premises. In no event should Landlord be permitted to store
any of its materials overnight in the Premises. All such work should be
performed at times and in such manner as to create the least practicable
interference with Tenant's use of the Premises with any demolition work to be
performed only outside of the Building's normal business hours; no such work
shall impact so-called "clean" or laboratory installations without reasonably
appropriate precautions having been taken; no such work should reduce ceiling
heights except for minor reductions adjacent to central core area walls and
existing building columns; no such work should reduce the usable floor area of
the Premises in excess of 250 square feet in the aggregate; and Tenant should
receive a dollar for dollar reduction in Annual Fixed Rent to reflect the usable
square footage so taken.

     2.4  PARKING. Landlord shall provide and Tenant shall pay for parking
privileges for use by Tenant's employees and business invitees and visitors in
accordance with Exhibit A.

                                        4
<PAGE>

Landlord shall, in accordance with Exhibit A, have the right to designate from
time to time, and to change from time to time, the location within University
Park that shall be used for the parking of Tenant's and its employees'
automobiles. Landlord covenants and agrees to provide, if reasonable to do so
given the distance to the Building, shuttle bus service at peak hours for
service to and from the Building and such relocated parking spaces. Landlord may
cause to be constructed within University Park a parking garage or garages (a
"Garage") to serve the Building and other buildings. When a Garage is completed
Landlord shall have the right to relocate all or any portion of Tenant's parking
rights to a Garage provided that if there is more than one such Garage, Tenant's
parking rights will be relocated into the Garage which is the closest to the
Building. Tenant's parking privileges may be on a nonexclusive basis. Landlord
shall not allocate parking spaces in the surface parking area serving the
Building to more cars than 110% times the number of available spaces therein.
Tenant agrees that it and all persons claiming by, through and under it, shall
at all times abide by the reasonable rules and regulations of general
application promulgated by Landlord with respect to the use of the parking
facilities provided by Landlord pursuant to this Lease.

     Except as otherwise provided in Exhibit A, Tenant shall pay to Landlord for
Tenant's parking privileges the monthly rent at which Landlord from time to time
offers to make parking privileges available to tenants and other users of such
parking facilities which pay rent therefor. Monthly parking charges shall
constitute Additional Rent and shall be payable at the time and in the fashion
in which Annual Fixed Rent under this Lease is payable, or at the option of
Landlord, Tenant shall enter into a separate lease agreement for such parking
rights for a period which shall have the same expiration date as the Term and
which, if this Lease provides for options on the part of Tenant to extend, shall
be automatically extended upon the exercise of any of such options. Any such
separate lease agreement shall be subject to the right of any then existing or
future holder of a mortgage or ground lease to require the subordination thereof
as contemplated in Section 10 hereof conditioned, however, upon the receipt by
Tenant of the same rights of non-disturbance as apply with respect to the
Premises.

     At any time during the Initial Term or any Extension Term Landlord shall
have the right to assign Landlord's obligations to provide parking, as herein
set forth, together with Landlord's right to receive Additional Rent for such
parking spaces as herein provided, to a separate entity created for the purpose
of providing the parking privileges set forth herein. In such event, Landlord
and Tenant agree to execute and deliver appropriate documentation, including
documentation with the new entity, reasonably necessary to provide for (i) the
new entity to assume Landlord's obligations to provide the parking privileges to
Tenant as specified herein and for Tenant to pay the Additional Rent
attributable to the parking privileges directly to the new entity, (ii) except
as contemplated by the next following sentence hereof, to release Landlord of
its obligations to Tenant to provide the parking privileges, and (iii) to
release Tenant from its obligations to pay Landlord for the Additional Rent
attributable to the parking privileges. Notwithstanding any assignment by
Landlord of its rights and responsibilities with respect to providing parking as
provided in this paragraph, any agreement between Landlord's assignee and Tenant
shall be cross-defaulted with this Lease such that INTER ALIA a default by such
assignee in the delivery of such parking rights to Tenant shall constitute a
failure to deliver services in that respect by Landlord hereunder.

                                        5
<PAGE>

     2.5  COMMENCEMENT DATE. "Commencement Date" means, for each portion of the
Premises designated in Exhibit A or Section 2.8 for separate delivery, the date
which is the earlier of (i) the date such space is available to Landlord and is
delivered to Tenant, or (ii) the date on which Tenant occupies any portion of
such space either for the performance of Tenant's initial installations or for
conducting its business operations. Tenant's rights and remedies, should
Landlord fail to deliver any portion of the Premises by the Scheduled Delivery
Date for such space, shall be as provided in, and limited to, the provisions of
Exhibit A-1.

     2.6  EXTENSION OPTIONS. Provided that (a) there has been no Event of
Default on the part of Tenant which is uncured and continuing, other than any
which have been waived by Landlord, and (b) Tenant is as of the date of the
exercise and as of the commencement date of any Extension Term (as hereinafter
defined) itself (including all entities for which Landlord's consent to
assignment or sublease is not required under Section 6.8) in occupancy of at
least fifty-one percent (51%) of the Premises, but in no event less than the
rentable square footage equal to ________ of the Original Premises, Tenant shall
have the right to extend the Term hereof for two (2) successive periods of five
(5) years each (each an "Extension Term"), such options to extend to be
exercised by the giving of notice by Tenant to Landlord at least nine (9) months
prior to the expiration of the then current Term. Upon the giving of such
notice, this Lease and the Term hereof shall be extended, for an additional term
of five (5) years, without the necessity for the execution of any additional
documents. In no event shall the Term hereof be extended for more than five (5)
years after the expiration of the Initial Term with respect to the first
Extension Term, and five (5) years after the expiration of the first Extension
Term with respect to the second Extension Term, nor shall Tenant have the right
to exercise succeeding extension options unless it has exercised the extension
option next preceding the extension option being currently exercised by Tenant.
The Extension Term shall be upon all the terms, conditions and provisions of
this Lease, except, that the increase in the Annual Fixed Rent during the
Extension Term shall be calculated in the following manner:

          Landlord shall compare the Consumer Price Index, which is published
     for the calendar month most immediately preceding the date the relevant
     Extension Term commences (the "Extension Index"), with the Consumer Price
     Index published for the calendar month most immediately preceding the date
     the Initial Term commenced (the "Beginning Index").

          If, at the time the Annual Fixed Rent payable with respect to the
     relevant Extension Term is established, the Extension Index has increased
     over the Beginning Index, then the Annual Fixed Rent payable during each
     Extension Term shall be set by multiplying rentable square foot by a
     fraction, the numerator of which is the Extension Index and the denominator
     of which is the Beginning Index. After the Annual Fixed Rent for the
     relevant Extension Term has been determined, Landlord shall give Tenant
     notice of the amount of Annual Fixed Rent for such Extension Term.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event whatsoever shall Annual
     Fixed Rent payable during any Extension Term be less than Annual Fixed Rent
     payable during the last five (5) years of the Initial Term.

     2.7  EXPANSION OPTIONS. Provided that (a) there has been no Event of
Default on the part of Tenant which is uncured and continuing, other than any
which have been waived by

                                        6
<PAGE>
 Landlord, and (b) Tenant is as of the date in question and as of the time
immediately prior to the time that additional space would be added to the
Premises pursuant to this Section 2.7 itself (including all entities for which
Landlord's consent to assignment or subleases not requited under Section 6.8) in
occupancy of at least [Illegible] of the Premises, but in no event less than the
rentable square footage equal to [Illegible] of the Original Premises, then if
any or all of the space located in the Building and not leased by Tenant
hereunder (the "Expansion Space") should become available for lease, Landlord
shall so notify Tenant and shall identify the space available (the "Offered
Space") together with the rentable square footage thereof computed using (i) the
schedule of rentable floor areas of full floors of the Premises, set forth in
Exhibit K, if the Offered Space consists of a full floor of the Building, or
(ii) that portion of the rentable floor area of the full floor of the Building
on which such space is located, as determined using the measurement standard
specified in Exhibit K and certified as such by Landlord's architect. Landlord
shall notify Tenant of such availability (i) within ten (10) days following the
termination of any lease demising a portion of the Expansion Space prior to the
expiration of the term thereof, and (ii) not more than one year nor less than
three months prior to the expiration of the term (as extended by any extension
options) of any lease demising a portion of the Expansion Space. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event shall any space located on the first or fourth floors
of the Building (except for the space on the fourth floor of the Building now
occupied by Oculon Corporation) be deemed Offered Space unless the same shall
become available for occupancy on or after January 1, 1993.

     If the Offered Space becomes available for occupancy at any time during the
first five (5) Lease Years of the Initial Term, the terms and conditions on
which Tenant would lease such Offered Space, if Tenant elects to lease such
Offered Space as provided below, would be the same terms and conditions of this,
Lease as apply to the Original Premises, including the right to extend the term
of this Lease with respect thereto and the right to additional parking spaces in
accordance herewith (at the same ratio as applied with respect to the remainder
of the Premises), and such Offered Space would become part of the Original
Premises for all purposes hereunder as of the date Tenant elects to lease such
Offered Space, for the remainder of the Term of this Lease. Tenant may, by
giving notice to Landlord within ten (10) business days after the date
Landlord's notice of the availability of Offered Space is given to Tenant, elect
to lease the Offered Space or any portion thereof, provided that if the Offered
Space consists of a full floor plus other space in the Building, Tenant's
election to lease less, than all of such Offered Space must apply to either (i)
the full floor or (ii) only such other space.

     If Tenant shall elect to so lease the Offered Space, or a portion thereof,
as aforesaid, then the Offered Space (or such portions) shall become part of the
Premises as of the date of Tenant's notice as provided above or such later date
as possession of the space shall be delivered by Landlord. If Tenant shall not
elect to lease any portion of the Offered Space, then except as otherwise
provided below, Tenant shall have no further rights under this Section 2.7 with
respect to such portion of the Offered Space, and Landlord shall thereafter be
free to lease any or all of such portion of the Offered Space to a third party
or parties from time to time on such terms and conditions as it may deem
appropriate, except that, unless good faith negotiations have commenced and are
continuing with third parties, Tenant shall continue to have the right to lease
the Offered Space (or any portion thereof, as aforesaid) on the foregoing terms
by notice to Landlord, but the foregoing shall not be deemed to limit Tenant's
rights under this Section 2.7 with respect to space within the Expansion Space
other than the Offered Space.

                                        7
<PAGE>

     If the Offered Space becomes available for occupancy after the expiration
of the first five (5) Lease Years of the Initial Term, Landlord shall so notify
Tenant and negotiate in good faith with Tenant for fifteen (15) days thereafter
for the lease of such space. If Landlord and Tenant have not concluded a lease
prior to the expiration of such fifteen (15) day period, then Landlord shall
give Tenant notice ("Landlord's Offer") of (a) the location and rentable square
footage of the Offered Space, (b) the anticipated date that such Offered Space
will be ready for delivery, (c) the minimum and maximum term for which Landlord
is willing to lease the Offered Space (including any extension options) and (d)
the net Annual Fixed Rent which Landlord would accept to lease the Offered Space
on an "as is" basis. Tenant shall then have the right to, either:

     (i)   accept Landlord's Offer by notice to Landlord given not later than
           five (5) business days from the date Landlord's Offer is given;

     (ii)  make a counteroffer ("Tenant's Counteroffer") to Landlord identifying
           (x) the term not exceeding the maximum term specified in Landlord's
           Offer or less than the minimum term specified in Landlord's Offer
           that Tenant offers as the term of such a lease and (y) the Annual
           Fixed Rent which Tenant would be willing to pay; or

     (iii) reject Landlord's Offer, which Tenant shall be deemed to have done
           unless Tenant makes a counteroffer to Landlord as described in clause
           (ii) above within the five (5) business day period therein specified.

     If Tenant accepts Landlord's Offer, Landlord shall enter into a lease with
Tenant for the Offered Space, for the term and for the Annual Fixed Rent
specified therein, and otherwise on the same basic "lease form" terms as
provided in this Lease. Tenant's failure to execute such a lease within ten (10)
business days of its being offered by Landlord in conformity with the provisions
of this Section shall be deemed a rejection of Landlord's Offer. If Tenant makes
a Tenant's Counteroffer, Landlord shall have the election described herein
below. If Tenant rejects or is deemed to have rejected Landlord's Offer,
Landlord may, within the one hundred eighty (180) day period following such
rejection, lease the Offered Space or any part thereof on any terms that
Landlord elects without having an obligation to Tenant under this Section 2.7
with respect thereto. Any of such Offered Space which has not been made subject
to a lease by Landlord upon the expiration of such one hundred eighty (180) day
period shall then become Offered Space subject again to the terms of this
Section 2.7.

     Upon the making by Tenant of Tenant's Counteroffer, Landlord shall then
have the right to either:

     (i)   accept Tenant's Counteroffer by notice to Tenant given not later than
           five (5) business days from the date Tenant's Counteroffer is given;
           or

     (ii)  reject Tenant's Counteroffer, which Landlord shall be deemed to have
           done unless Landlord accepts Tenant's Counteroffer as described in
           clause (i) above within the five (5) business day period therein
           described.

     If Landlord accepts Tenant's Counteroffer, then Landlord shall enter into a
lease with Tenant for the Offered Space, for the term and for the Annual Fixed
Rent specified therein, and

                                        8
<PAGE>

otherwise on the same basic "lease forms" terms as provided in this Lease.
Tenant's failure to execute such a lease within ten business (10) days of its
being offered by Landlord in conformity with the provisions of this Section
shall be deemed a withdrawal of Tenant's Counteroffer and a rejection of
Landlord's Offer to which Tenant responded by Tenant's Counteroffer.

     If Landlord rejects Tenant's Counteroffer, then Landlord may, within one
hundred eighty (180) days following such rejection, enter into a Permitted Lease
as defined in the paragraph below without further obligation to Tenant under
this Section. Landlord may not enter into a lease for the Offered Space, other
than a Permitted Lease, without first offering Tenant the Offered Space for a
term and for the Annual Fixed Rent being offered to the prospective tenant
thereunder by delivery to Tenant of a revised Landlord's Offer and providing
Tenant a further period of three (3) days from the date such revised Landlord's
Offer is given to accept or reject such terms.

     For purposes of this Section 2.7, a "Permitted Lease" is a lease having the
following qualities:

     (i)   The premises leased thereunder constitute all of the Offered Space
           set forth in Landlord's Offer;

     (ii)  The lease has a term (x) not less than the minimum term specified in
           Landlord's Offer and (y) not more than two (2) years longer than the
           maximum term specified in Landlord's Offer; and

     (iii) The Annual Fixed Rent is not lower than the lesser of [Illegible] of
           the Annual Fixed Rent specified in Landlord's Offer or (y) the Annual
           Fixed Rent specified in Tenant's Counteroffer.

     Landlord hereby confirms that, except for an existing tenant of the fifth
floor which has expansion rights with respect to other space on the fifth floor,
which expansion rights will be terminated upon delivery to Tenant of the portion
'of the Premises consisting of the entire rentable area of the fifth floor, no
tenant of the Building other than Tenant has the right in its lease to lease
additional space in the Building. Landlord covenants and agrees not to grant any
third parties rights to occupy the Expansion Space which are superior to
Tenant's rights under this Section 2.7.

     Landlord also hereby confirms that a certain lease with Caymen Systems,
Inc. for all of the rentable floor area of the third floor of the Building
expires on November 30, 1993 and does not contain an extension option.

     2.8  FIRST FLOOR PREMISES. The portion of the Original Premises located on
the first floor of the Building (the "First Floor Premises") shall consist of
either the rentable area shown in "Option A" or the rentable area shown in
"Option B" as identified on the floor plan of the first floor attached as
Exhibit G, as Landlord elects to deliver to Tenant pursuant hereto. The rentable
square footage of each such space is set forth in Exhibit G. Landlord is
delivering herewith the rentable area shown in "Option A" to Tenant and the
Commencement Date shall be deemed to have occurred as of the date hereof with
respect to such portion of the First Floor Premises. If Landlord elects to make
the additional rentable square footage on the first floor of the Building

                                        9
<PAGE>

which, together with the space constituting "Option A" would constitute "Option
B," a portion of the Original Premises, such additional space shall become part
of the First Floor Premises upon the Commencement Date therefor. During any
period from the Commencement Date to the Annual Fixed Rent Commencement Date
with respect to any First Floor Premises, Tenant will pay Landlord, in lieu of
Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 3.3, the cost
of cleaning the First Floor Premises and furnishing any utility services
thereto. Upon the establishment of the total rentable square footage of the
First Floor Premises pursuant hereto, which determination shall be made not
later than March 1, 1992, the rentable square footage thereof (and consequently
of the entire Original Premises) specified in Exhibit A shall be corrected to
reflect the correct square footage by an amendment to this Lease executed
promptly thereafter by Landlord and Tenant. Landlord shall, promptly after March
1, 1992, at its sole cost and expense, install demising walls in the First Floor
Premises promptly following the establishment of the size thereof in accordance
with this Section 2.8. During the period from the Commencement Date until the
date Landlord no longer controls the present Forest City marketing conference
center adjacent to the First Floor Premises, Landlord will permit Tenant access
and use during the normal hours of the Building's operation, with reasonable
advance notice and subject to reasonable rules and regulations, to such
marketing conference center for periodic meetings and the like. It is understood
that Landlord's election to make "Option A" rather than "Option B" the First
Floor Premises shall be based solely upon whether such additional space shall be
necessary to accommodate another tenant in the Building who would be relocated
into such space to accommodate Tenant.

3.   RENT AND OTHER PAYMENTS

     3.1  ANNUAL FIXED RENT. From and after the Annual Fixed Rent Commencement
Date, Tenant shall pay, without notice or demand, monthly installments of
one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Annual Fixed Rent in effect and applicable to the
Premises, or portion thereof delivered to Tenant, and Expansion Space, if any,
in advance for each full calendar month of the Term and of the corresponding
fraction of said one-twelfth (1/12th) for any fraction of a calendar month at
the beginning or end of the Term. The Annual Fixed Rent applicable to the
Premises during the Initial Term shall be as set forth in Exhibit A. The Annual
Fixed Rent applicable to the Premises during any Expansion Term shall be as set
forth in Section 2.6. The Annual Fixed Rent applicable to the Expansion Space,
if any, shall be as set forth in Section 2.7.

     3.2  REAL ESTATE TAXES. From and after the Annual Fixed Rent Commencement
Date, during the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, the
Tenant's Tax Expenses Allocable to the Premises (or portion thereof which has
been delivered to the Tenant), as hereinafter defined, in accordance with this
Section 3.2. The terms used in this Section 3.2 are defined as follows:

          (a) "Tax Year" means the 12-month period beginning July 1 each year or
if the appropriate governmental tax fiscal period shall begin on any date other
than July 1, such other date.

          (b) "Tenant's Tax Expenses Allocable to the Premises" means (i) that
portion of Landlord's Tax Expenses for a Tax Year which bears the same
proportion thereto as the Rentable Floor Area of the Premises (from time to
time) bears to the Total Rentable Floor Area

                                       10
<PAGE>

of the Building and (ii) in the event that the Premises, or portion thereof
which has been delivered to Tenant, are improved to a standard which is higher
than other portions of the Property, such portion of the Real Estate Taxes on
the Property with respect to any Tax Year as is appropriate so that Tenant bears
the portion of the Real Estate Taxes which are properly allocable to the
Premises already delivered to Tenant, as reasonably determined by Landlord based
on information with respect to the assessment process made available by the
assessing authorities. The reasonableness of Landlord's determination as
aforesaid shall, by notice of Tenant to Landlord given within ninety (90) days
of Landlord's delivery to Tenant of Landlord's statement as contemplated below,
be subject to Dispute Resolution. "If the beginning and end of the Term of this
Lease with respect to all or any portion of the Premises shall occur other than
on the first day and the last day, respectively, of a Tax Year, or if the
Rentable Floor Area of the Premises is not constant throughout the entire Tax
Year, Tenant's Tax Expense Allocable to the Premises shall be appropriately
apportioned, on a per diem basis.

          (c) "Landlord's Tax Expenses" with respect to any Tax Year means the
aggregate Real Estate Taxes on the Property with respect to that Tax Year,
reduced by any abatement receipts with respect to that Tax Year.

          (d) "Real Estate Taxes" means all taxes and special assessments of
every kind and nature assessed by any governmental authority on the Property and
reasonable expenses of counsel and other professionals, including filing fees
and other disbursements, with respect to any proceedings for abatement of such
taxes including appeals thereof (except for such fees and disbursements
allocable to seeking an abatement or other reduction of such taxes as
contemplated in the last paragraph of this Section 3.2). The amount of special
taxes or special assessments to be included shall be limited to the amount of
the installment (plus any interest thereon) of such special tax or special
assessment (which shall be payable over the longest period permitted by law)
required to be paid during the Tax Year in respect of which such taxes are being
determined. Landlord represents that as of the date hereof, there are no
outstanding special assessments which have been imposed with respect to the
Property. There shall be excluded from such taxes all interest and penalties
imposed for the late payment thereof, and income, estate, succession,
inheritance, excess profit, franchise and transfer taxes; provided, however,
that if at any time during the Term the present system of AD VALOREM taxation of
real property shall be changed so that in lieu of the whole or any part of the
ad valorem tax on real property, there shall be assessed on Landlord a capital
levy or other tax on the gross rents received with respect to the Property, or a
Federal, State, County, Municipal, or other local income, franchise, excise or
similar tax, assessment, levy or charge (distinct from any now in effect) based,
in whole or in part, upon any such gross rents, then any and all of such taxes,
assessments, levies or charges, to the extent so based and on the assumption
that such gross rents are the sole rents of Landlord, shall be deemed to be
included within the term "Real Estate Taxes." There shall also be excluded from
Real Estate Taxes any increase therein equitably allocable, in Landlord's
reasonable judgment, to capital improvements to the Property unless such
expenses are incurred to maintain the current scope of operation of and services
to the Building or the Premises rather than for the construction of a new
structure on the Property or the construction of any additions to the Building
or renovations thereto which materially change the character or scope of the
Building or the Property or which are not reasonably required by the
deterioration of existing facilities. The reasonableness of Landlord's
determination shall, by notice of Tenant to Landlord given within ninety (90)
days of Landlord's delivery to Tenant of Landlord's statement as

                                       11
<PAGE>

contemplated below, be subject to Dispute Resolution. There shall also be
excluded from Real Estate Taxes any increase therein resulting from a Sales
Premium as defined in the next following paragraph.

     If the law governing the assessment of real property for Real Estate Taxes
which is now applicable to the Property is revised such that, upon the sale of
the Property, the sales price paid therefor may cause the assessment of the
Property for Real Estate Taxes to be increased on a different or expedited basis
than the basis upon which the assessment for Real Estate Taxes of other similar
properties would be increased, then, provided that the assessment of the
Property for Real Estate Taxes increases upon the assessment date next following
a sale of the Property, which increase is determined by Dispute Resolution as
provided below to be equitably attributable to the sales price for the Property
increasing the assessed value of the Property for Real Estate Taxes to a level
higher than similar properties (such portion of the increase in assessment being
herein referred to as the "Sales Premium"), Real Estate Taxes shall be equitably
adjusted to ensure that for any period during which a Sales Premium should
exist, the additional Real Estate Taxes payable by virtue thereof shall be
excluded from Real Estate Taxes. Tenant may seek the establishment of a Sales
Premium by requesting Dispute Resolution with respect thereto within ninety (90)
days of the date upon which Landlord shall have delivered Landlord's statement
of Real Estate Taxes reflecting such increase in assessment.

     Payments by Tenant on account of Tenant's Tax Expenses Allocable to the
Premises shall be made monthly at the time and in the fashion herein provided
for the payment of Annual Fixed Rent and shall be in an amount, specified by
Landlord in a notice given by Landlord to Tenant, of one-twelfth (1/12) of
Tenant's Tax Expenses Allocable to the Premises for the current Tax Year, which
amount shall be reasonably estimated by Landlord to be sufficient, if paid
monthly, to pay Landlord's Tax Expenses on the dates due to the taxing authority
in accordance with Tenant's pro rata share of the rentable square footage of the
Building, the reasonableness of which estimate shall be subject to Dispute
Resolution. If greater, the amount estimated by any ground lessor of the Land or
holder of a first mortgage on the Property shall be paid by Tenant
notwithstanding that Landlord's estimate may have been smaller. Tenant shall
make payments in the amount specified in Landlord's notice given as aforesaid
until Landlord shall have given Tenant another such notice modifying the monthly
required payment.

     Not later than ninety (90) days after Landlord's Tax Expenses are
determinable for the first Tax Year of the Term or fraction thereof and for each
succeeding Tax Year or fraction thereof during the Term, Landlord shall render
Tenant a statement in reasonable detail showing for the preceding year or
fraction thereof, as the case may be, Real Estate Taxes on the Property, and any
abatements or refunds of such taxes together with a copy of all tax bills
relating to such Tax Year and any other relevant statements and records relating
thereto. Expenses incurred in obtaining any tax abatement or refund, as
contemplated in clause (d) above (but subject to the limitation therein set
forth) not previously reimbursed to Landlord may be charged against such tax
abatement or refund before the adjustments are made for the Tax Year. If at the
time such statement is rendered it is determined with respect to any Tax Year,
that Tenant has paid (i) less than Tenant's Tax Expenses Allocable to the
Premises or (ii) more than Tenant's Tax Expenses Allocable to the Premises,
then, in the case of (i) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent,
within fifteen (15) days of such statement the amount of such underpayment and,
in the case of (ii) Landlord shall credit the amount of such overpayment against
the monthly

                                       12
<PAGE>

installments of Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent next thereafter coming due
(or refund such overpayment if the Term has expired and Tenant has no further
obligation to Landlord).

     To the extent that Real Estate Taxes shall be payable to the taxing
authority in installments with respect to periods less than a Tax Year, the
statement to be furnished by Landlord shall be rendered and payments made on
account of such installments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, no
decrease in Landlord's Tax Expenses with respect to any Tax Year shall result in
a reduction of the amount otherwise payable by Tenant if and to the extent said
decrease is attributable in Landlord's reasonable judgment to vacancies in the
Building, rather than to a reduction in the assessed value of the Property as a
whole or a reduction in the tax rate. Landlord's attribution of a decrease in
Landlord's Tax Expenses to vacancies in the Building as aforesaid shall be
demonstrable by documentary evidence and shall, by notice of Tenant to Landlord
given within ninety (90) days of Landlord's delivery to Tenant of Landlord's
statement as aforesaid, be subject to Dispute Resolution.

     3.3  OPERATING EXPENSES. From and after the Annual Fixed Rent Commencement
Date, during the Term Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, Tenant's
Operating Expenses Allocable to the Premises (or portion thereof which has been
delivered to Tenant), as hereinafter defined, in accordance with this Section
3.3. The terms used in this Section 3.3 are defined as follows:

          (a) "Tenant's Operating Expenses Allocable to the Premises" means that
portion of the Operating Expenses for the Property which bears the same
proportion thereto as the Rentable Floor Area of the Premises (from time to
time) bears to the Total Rentable Floor Area of the Building. If the Rentable
Floor Area of the Premises is not constant throughout the entire period with
respect to which Operating Expenses for the Property are allocated to the
Premises, Tenant's Operating Expenses Allocable to the Premises shall be
equitably adjusted to account therefor, on a PER DIEM basis.

          (b) "Operating Expenses for the Property" means Landlord's cost of
operating, cleaning, maintaining and repairing the Building, all landscaping
upon the Property and the parking lot thereon for tenants in the Building and
the roads, driveways, walkways for providing access to the Building and such
parking facilities, including without limitation, the cost of providing or
causing to be provided the services on Exhibit D, premiums for insurance carried
pursuant to Section 7.4; the amount deductible from any insurance claim of
Landlord; compensation and all fringe benefits, worker's compensation insurance
premiums and payroll taxes paid to, for or with respect to all persons directly
engaged in the operating, maintaining or cleaning of the Property, including the
parking facilities located thereon, at and below the level of Property Manager
for University Park; interior landscaping and maintenance, steam, water, sewer,
gas, oil, electricity, telephone and other utility charges (excluding such
utility charges either separately metered or separately chargeable to tenants
for additional or special services); cost of providing conditioned water for
HVAC services (net of amounts chargeable to tenants); cost of building and
cleaning supplies; rental costs for equipment used in the operating, cleaning,
maintaining or repairing of the Property, or in the case of equipment owned by
Landlord, such cost as amortized in the same manner as provided below with
respect to capital improvements; cost of cleaning; cost of maintenance, repairs
and replacements (other than repairs and replacements reimbursed from
contractors under guarantees); cost of snow removal; cost of

                                       13
<PAGE>

landscape maintenance; security services; payments under service contracts with
independent contractors for services which would properly be includable as an
operating expense of the Property, management fees at reasonable rates
consistent with the type of occupancy and the service rendered; the cost of any
capital improvement made for the purpose of reducing operating expenses or to
comply with applicable law hereinafter imposed, which cost shall be amortized in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, together with interest
on the unamortized balance at the base lending rate announced by the First
National Bank of Boston or, if such rate can no longer be determined, by a major
commercial bank designated by Landlord, or such higher then commercially
reasonable rate as may have been paid by Landlord on funds borrowed for the
purpose of constructing such capital improvements, provided, however, that the
cost of any such capital improvements made for the purpose of reducing operating
expenses shall be deemed incurred each year not more quickly than the savings
achieved in such year, which savings shall be determined by Landlord in its
reasonable judgment, the reasonableness of which shall be subject to Dispute
Resolution; charges allocated to the Building, which allocation shall be based
on the ratio of the rentable square footage of the Building to the total
rentable square footage of commercial space (with any garage space serving such
commercial space being incorporated therein) within University Park for the
operating, cleaning, maintaining and repairing of University Park common areas
and amenities, including, but not limited to, the Building's proportionate
interest, calculated as aforesaid, of the compensation and all fringe benefits
as aforesaid paid to, for or with respect to the Property Manager of University
Park and real estate taxes on common areas, facilities (excluding a Garage) and
open spaces within University Park; and all other reasonable and necessary
expenses paid in connection with the operation, cleaning, maintenance and repair
of the Property and properly includable as an operating expense of the Property.
If, for any reason portions of the Rentable Area of the Building not included in
the Premises were not occupied by tenants or Landlord was not supplying all
tenants with the services being supplied under this Lease or any tenants in the
Building were supplied with a lesser level of standard services than those
supplied to Tenant under this Lease, Landlord's Operating Expenses for the
Property shall include the amounts reasonably determined by Landlord which would
have been incurred if all of the rentable area in the Building were occupied and
were supplied with the same level of standard services as supplied to Tenant
under this Lease.

Operating Expenses for the Property shall not include the following: Landlord's
Tax Expenses; cost of repairs or replacements (i) resulting from eminent domain
takings, (ii) resulting from fire or other casualty except for (x) the amount
deductible from Landlord's insurance claim, as provided above or (y) any fire or
other casualty caused by a peril not required to be insured against under
Section 7.4 (with any capital expenditures being amortized as contemplated above
with respect to other capital expenditures), (iii) to the extent reimbursed by
insurance, or (iv) required, above and beyond ordinary periodic maintenance, to
maintain in good order, condition and repair the roads, driveways, walkways and
lobbies of the Building, the major structural elements of the Building,
including the roof, building systems, exterior walls and floor slabs (an example
of which, without limitation, would be the costs of constructing and
consequently maintaining, repairing and operating a Garage on the Property);
replacement or contingency reserves; the cost of capital improvements (other
than as specifically provided for above) or as required by law heretofore
imposed but which Landlord

                                       14
<PAGE>

               has failed to complete; ground lease rents or payment of debt
               obligations; real estate taxes other than with respect to the
               Property except as expressly provided above in connection with
               the University Park common areas and amenities; legal and other
               professional fees for matters not relating to the normal
               administration and operation of the Property (expressly excluding
               fees and charges incurred for the recovery of the rentals or the
               eviction of tenants); promotional, advertising, public relations
               or brokerage fees and commissions paid in connection with
               services rendered for securing or renewing leases; costs of
               services or work provided to other tenants in excess of services
               or work to which Tenant is entitled hereunder without additional
               charge; interest or penalties for late payments; depreciation and
               other non-cash charges (except as otherwise expressly provided);
               personnel charges for employees above the grade of Property
               Manager of University Park and any office overhead with respect
               to such excluded personnel. Landlord's Operating Expenses shall
               be reduced by the amount of any proceeds, payments, credits or
               reimbursements which Landlord receives from sources other than
               tenants and which are applicable to such Operating Expenses for
               the Property.

     Payments by Tenant on account of Tenant's Operating Expenses Allocable to
the Premises shall be made monthly at the time and in the fashion herein
provided for the payment of Annual Fixed Rent. The amount so to be paid to
Landlord shall be an amount from time to time reasonably estimated by Landlord
specified by Landlord in a notice given by Landlord to Tenant to be sufficient
to aggregate a sum equal to Tenant's Operating Expenses Allocable to the
Premises for each calendar year. The reasonableness of such estimate shall be
subject to Dispute Resolution. Tenant shall make payments in the amount so
specified in Landlord's notice given as aforesaid until Landlord shall have
given Tenant another such notice modifying the required monthly payment.

     Not later than ninety (90) days after the end of each calendar year or
fraction thereof during the Term or fraction thereof at the end of the Term,
Landlord shall render Tenant a statement in reasonable detail and according to
usual accounting practices certified by a financial officer of Landlord, showing
for the preceding calendar year or fraction thereof, as the case may be, the
Operating Expenses for the Property and Tenant's Operating Expenses Allocable to
the Premises. Said statement to be rendered to Tenant also shall show for the
preceding calendar year or fraction thereof, as the case may be, the amounts of
Operating Expenses already paid by Tenant. If at the time such statement is
rendered it is determined with respect to any calendar year, that Tenant has
paid (i) less than Tenant's Operating Expenses Allocable to the Premises or (ii)
more than Tenant's Operating Expenses Allocable to the Premises, then, in the
case of (i) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, within thirty (30)
days of such statement the amounts of such underpayment and, in the case of (ii)
Landlord shall credit the amount of such overpayment against the monthly
installments of Fixed Annual Rent and Additional Rent next thereafter coming due
(or refund such overpayment if the Term has expired and Tenant has no further
obligation to Landlord). Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall
additionally pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, the cost of all services
furnished to Tenant which are above Standard Building Services, as contemplated
under Section 3.5. Landlord covenants that it will use reasonable efforts to
operate, clean, repair, maintain and manage the Property efficiently and
economically.

                                       15
<PAGE>

     Tenant may, after ten (10) days' prior written notice to Landlord given
within one hundred twenty (120) days of Landlord's delivery to Tenant of a
statement of Operating Expenses for the Property, during Landlord's regular
business hours and at Tenant's sole cost and expense, inspect Landlord's books
and records relating to Operating Expenses for the Property. Tenant shall keep
all information relating to Operating Expenses for the Property strictly
confidential and shall in no event, whatsoever, disclose such information to any
third party other than to Tenant's attorneys and accountants in connection with
proceedings concerning this Lease. Landlord's statement shall, by notice of
Tenant to Landlord given within thirty (30) days of the expiration of the
aforesaid one hundred twenty (120) day period, be subject to Dispute Resolution.
If it is determined that Landlord's statement has overstated the Operating
Expenses for the Property for any calendar year by more than three percent (3%)
then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for its reasonable audit costs incurred in
connection with this paragraph. If Landlord's statement is determined not to
have overstated Operating Expenses for the Property, Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for its reasonable audit costs incurred in connection with this
paragraph.

     3.4  OTHER UTILITY CHARGES. During the Term, Tenant shall pay directly to
the provider of the service, all separately metered charges for steam, heat, air
conditioning, water, gas, electricity, fuel and other services and utilities
furnished to the Premises. Tenant shall, as part of its initial installations,
separately meter, at Tenant's expense, electricity, water and natural gas to the
extent not now separately metered.

     3.5  STANDARD BUILDING SERVICES; EXTRA SERVICES. Landlord covenants and
agrees to furnish the services described in Exhibit D ("Standard Building
Services") to the Premises during the Building's normal hours of operation which
are from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on weekdays, excluding all holidays to which the
Building's service employees are entitled pursuant to their employment
contracts. If Tenant requests that Landlord provide any services described in
Exhibit D in quantities exceeding Standard Building Services or at times other
than during the Building's normal hours of operation as aforesaid ("Extra
Services"), Landlord will do so, provided Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as
Additional Rent, the amount billed by Landlord for such Extra Services at the
rates provided herein and Tenant shall have given Landlord timely notice of
Tenant's request for such Extra Services as provided herein. Overtime HVAC
service shall be provided to Tenant at Landlord's costs, without mark-up, of
rendering such additional service, which costs may include, without limitation,
the extra cost of maintaining the equipment due to the additional hours of
operation, the cost of engineering labor for adjusting the hours of operation of
the equipment, the additional amortization cost of the equipment for the
additional hours of operation and the personnel cost of additional
administrative staff time. Landlord's current charge for overtime HVAC service
is [Illegible] per hour. Requests for additional HVAC service shall be made in
writing and given to Landlord not later than 2:00 p.m. on the previous day
during which the Building has normal hours of operation as aforesaid for
weekends and holidays and not later than 2:00 p.m. on the day requested for
weekdays which are not holidays. With respect to all other Extra Services which
Landlord provides, Tenant shall pay Landlord's standard rates therefor as from
time to time in effect, which rates shall be competitive with those charged in
other first class office and R&D projects in Cambridge to tenants occupying
equivalent square footage and percentage of the Building. Landlord's
determination shall be subject to Dispute Resolution. If Landlord is not
satisfied ,with the determination reached by Dispute Resolution, Landlord may
elect not to provide the Extra Service in question

                                       16
<PAGE>

so long as Tenant may obtain the same service on commercially reasonable rates
from an independent third party who shall be reasonably acceptable to Landlord
and Tenant. Tenant shall make any request for such Extra Services to Landlord in
writing and Landlord shall commence furnishing the service in question as soon
as is reasonably practicable. If Tenant has requested that any such
above-standard services be provided on a regular basis, Tenant shall, if
requested by Landlord, pay for such services at the time and in the fashion in
which Annual Fixed Rent under this Lease is payable. Otherwise, Tenant shall pay
for such additional services within fifteen (15) days after receipt of an
invoice from Landlord.

     3.6  NO OFFSETS. Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent shall be paid by
Tenant without offset, abatement or deduction except as expressly otherwise
provided in this Lease.

     3.7  NET LEASE. It is understood and agreed that this Lease is a net lease
and that, except as otherwise expressly herein provided, the Annual Fixed Rent
is absolutely net to Landlord excepting only Landlord's obligations to pay any
debt service or ground rent on the Property, to provide Landlord's services, to
restore the Property in the event of casualty or condemnation as contemplated
under Sections 8.1 and 8.5, respectively, and to pay the real estate taxes and
operating expenses which Tenant is not required to pay under this Lease.

4.   ALTERATIONS.

     4.1  CONSENT REQUIRED FOR TENANT'S ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall not make
alterations or additions to the Premises except in accordance with the building
standards from time to time in effect, with reasonable construction rules and
regulations from time to time promulgated by Landlord and applicable to tenants
in the Building, and with plans and specifications therefor first approved by
Landlord, which approval shall not be withheld unreasonably. Landlord shall most
carefully scrutinize and hold the highest standard for approval of any
alterations or additions which (i) involve or might affect any structural or
exterior element of the Building, any area or element outside of the Premises,
or any facility serving any area of the Building outside of the Premises or any
publicly accessible major interior features of the Building or (ii) will require
unusual expense to readapt the Premises to normal use unless Tenant first gives
assurance acceptable to Landlord that such readaptation will be made prior to
such termination without expense to Landlord. Without limitation, Landlord shall
not be deemed unreasonable for withholding approval of any alteration or
addition (i) which would not be compatible with existing mechanical or
electrical, plumbing, HVAC or other systems in the Building, in each case, as
reasonably determined by Landlord or (ii) which would exceed the PRO RATA share
allocable to the Premises of the capacity of the electrical, water or other
systems as specified in Exhibit L, in each case, as reasonably determined by
Landlord and Landlord's Engineer. In connection with any alterations which
Tenant is permitted to perform under this Lease, Landlord shall execute any
permits and/or applications which are required of Tenant under applicable law to
facilitate receipt or approval of a building permit and certificate of
occupancy.

     4.2  INITIAL ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall make alterations to prepare the
Premises for Tenant's initial occupancy as more fully provided in the Work
Letter attached to Exhibit C hereto. Attached as Exhibit C-2 to the Work, Letter
are certain Outline Specifications (the "Outline Specifications") describing the
alterations Tenant proposes to make in the Premises, which alterations Landlord
has approved. Insofar as information is specified in the Outline

Specifications, Landlord agrees that it will approve plans and specifications
which conform to the information so specified. Landlord also covenants and
agrees not to unreasonably withhold or delay consent to plans and specifications
which supplement the Outline Specifications and/or to inconsistencies which may
exist between such plans and specifications and the Technical Specifications for
Tenant Area Building Standards which forms Part 2 of Exhibit F; it being agreed
that Landlord's consent to Tenant's plans and specifications will be based
solely on Tenant's reasonable compliance with applicable portions of Landlord's
Guidelines for Tenant Construction and Alteration which forms Part 3 of Exhibit
F (with the exclusion of references to separate and distinct BOTA, BOSE, BOCR
and/or BOE review and approval prior to the performance of any items of work),
the compatibility of Tenant's proposed alteration to the existing mechanical,
electrical, plumbing and HVAC systems of the Building, and the limitation of
Tenant's rights to only its PRO RATA share of the capacity of the electrical,
water or other Building systems as specified in Exhibit L, but not aesthetics or
other normative general standards for the Building. If Landlord shall fail to
approve or disapprove Tenant's plans and specifications or any severable portion
of such plans and specifications within ten (10) days of the initial submission
to Landlord, as the case may be, such plans and specifications (or severable
portion) shall be deemed approved. If Landlord shall disapprove any portion of
such plans and specifications, it shall specify in writing its objections
thereto together, to the extent practicable, with suggested alternatives
acceptable to Landlord.

     4.3  OWNERSHIP OF ALTERATIONS AND RESTORATIONS AT END OF TERM. All
alterations and additions shall be part of the Building and owned by Landlord,
unless either (a) at the time Tenant furnished Landlord the plans and
specifications therefor for Landlord's approval, Tenant specified that Tenant
desires to retain ownership thereof and remove the same upon the termination or
expiration of this Lease and Landlord approves thereof ("Optional Removable
Alterations") or (b) at the time Landlord approves the plans and specifications
therefor, Landlord shall specify that Tenant must retain ownership thereof and
remove the same upon the termination or expiration of this Lease ("Required
Removable Alterations"). Optional Removable Alterations and Required Removable
Alterations are collectively herein referred to as "Removable Alterations." All
movable equipment and furnishings not attached to the Premises shall remain the
property of Tenant and shall be removed by Tenant upon termination or expiration
of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the initial
alterations to prepare the Premises for occupancy, all fume hoods and
environmental (hot, cold, etc.) rooms installed by Tenant in connection
therewith shall be deemed Optional Removable Alterations. Prior to the
expiration of the Term or the earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant may
remove all Optional Removable Alterations and must remove all Required Removable
Alterations in accordance with the requirements of this Section 4.3 in addition
to fulfilling the requirements of Section 11.9. In connection with any removal
of Removable Alterations, Tenant shall cap off all utility connections behind
the adjacent interior finish and restore such interior finish to the limited
extent necessary so that the Premises are left with complete wall, ceiling and
floor finishes. Tenant shall have the right to subject the Optional Removable
Alterations to a prior security interest in connection with the financing of
Tenant's leasehold improvements so long as Tenant shall secure its foregoing
restoration obligation by guaranty reasonably satisfactory to Landlord or other
security reasonably satisfactory to Landlord or the secured party thereunder
shall, in the security agreement evidencing its interest or other writing, agree
to fulfill the restoration obligations set forth in the immediately preceding
sentence as a condition to recovering possession of such Optional Removable
Alterations.

                                       18

 4.4  CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS FOR ALTERATIONS. All construction work by Tenant
shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner employing only first-class
materials and in compliance with all applicable laws and all lawful ordinances,
regulations and orders of Governmental authority and insurers of the Building.
Nothing in the immediately preceding sentence shall prohibit Tenant from
contesting the validity or applicability of any governmental law, order or
regulation provided that Tenant provides security therefor reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant does not in any manner subject Landlord to
risk of criminal liability or subject the Property or any part thereof to risk
of forfeiture. Landlord or Landlord's authorized agent may (but without any
implied obligation to do so) inspect the work of Tenant at reasonable times and
shall give notice of observed defects. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord in
all reasonable respects to coordinate Tenant's performance of any alterations
and additions, and installation of furnishings, with any work being performed by
Landlord and, in connection with any work then in progress at the Building,
prevent any disruption of harmonious labor relations. The performance of
alterations and additions, and the installation of furnishings, shall be
undertaken without unreasonably interfering with the normal operation of the
Building. Except for installation of furnishings and interior decoration, all of
the foregoing shall be performed by Landlord's general contractor or by
contractors or workmen first approved by Landlord, which approval Landlord
agrees not to unreasonably withhold; Landlord shall advise Tenant of any
approval of Tenant's general contractors or workmen within three (3) business
days of Tenant's written request therefor. Any disapproval by Landlord of
Tenant's general contractor or workmen shall be accompanied by the reasons
therefor and at least two (2) acceptable alternatives. Tenant, before starting
any work, shall receive and, except as otherwise expressly contemplated in
Section 4.2, comply with Landlord's construction rules and regulations, a copy
of the current rules and regulations are attached hereto and incorporated herein
as Exhibit E, and shall cause Tenant's contractors to comply therewith, shall
secure all licenses and permits necessary therefor and shall deliver to Landlord
a statement of the names of all its contractors and subcontractors and the
estimated cost of all labor and material to be furnished by them and security
satisfactory to Landlord protecting Landlord against liens arising out of the
furnishing of such labor and material, which, at Tenant's option, may include a
guaranty and/or payment and performance bonds in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord; and cause each contractor to carry worker's
compensation insurance in statutory amounts covering all the contractors' and
subcontractors' employees and comprehensive general public liability insurance
with such limits as Landlord may require reasonably, but in no event less than
[Illegible] combined single limit covering personal injury and death and
property damage (all such insurance to be written in companies licensed to do
business in Massachusetts and insuring Landlord, such individuals and entities
affiliated with Landlord as Landlord may designate, and Tenant as well as the
contractors as named or additional insureds and to contain a requirement for at
least thirty (30) days' notice to Landlord prior to cancellation, nonrenewal or
material change), and to deliver to Landlord certificates of all such insurance.

     4.5  PAYMENT FOR TENANT ALTERATIONS. Tenant agrees to pay promptly when due
the entire cost of any work done on the Premises by Tenant, its agents,
employees or independent contractors, and not to cause or permit any liens for
labor or materials performed or furnished in connection therewith to attach to
the Premises or the Property and promptly to discharge any such liens which may
so attach. If any such lien shall be filed against the Premises or the Property
and the Tenant shall fail to cause such lien to be discharged within twenty (20)
days after notice to Tenant of the filing thereof, Landlord may, after ten (10)
days notice to Tenant

                                       19
<PAGE>

and except to the extent theretofore discharged by Tenant, cause such lien to be
discharged by payment, bond or otherwise, without investigation as to the
validity thereof or as to any offsets or defenses which Tenant may have with
respect to the amount claimed. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, as additional
rent, for any cost so incurred and shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord
from and against any and all claims, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses
(including attorneys' fees) which may be incurred or suffered by Landlord by
reason of any such lien or its discharge.

5.   RESPONSIBILITY FOR CONDITION OF BUILDING AND PREMISES

     5.1  MAINTENANCE OF BUILDING AND COMMON AREAS BY LANDLORD. Except as
otherwise provided in Article 8, Landlord covenants and agrees to make such
repairs to the structural elements of the Building, including the roof, exterior
walls, water tower, and floor slabs as may be necessary to keep and maintain the
same in good order, condition and repair and maintain and make such repairs to
the Common Building Areas and parking areas serving the Building, as may be
necessary to keep them neat, clean and in good order, condition and repair,
including without limitation, the glass in the exterior walls of the Building,
and all mechanical systems and equipment serving the Building unless exclusively
serving the Premises and installed by either Tenant, or a predecessor tenant of
the Premises or any portion thereof. Nothing in this Section 5.1 is to be
construed as relieving Tenant from any liability under Section 7.1. Landlord
shall further perform the Standard Building Services and any Extra Services that
Landlord has agreed to perform pursuant to Section 3.5. Landlord's costs in
performing Building Standard Services shall be reimbursed by Tenant to the
extent provided in Section 3.3.

     5.2  MAINTENANCE OF PREMISES BY TENANT. Tenant shall keep neat and clean
and maintain in good order, condition and repair the Premises and every part
thereof and all Building and mechanical equipment which exclusively serves the
Premises and was installed by either Tenant or a predecessor tenant of the
Premises or any portion thereof, wherever located, reasonable wear and tear
excepted and further excepting those repairs for which Landlord is responsible
pursuant to Section 5.1 and damage by fire or other casualty (except to the
extent Tenant shall be liable therefor pursuant to the terms of this Lease but
subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of Section 7.5.) and as a consequence
of the exercise of the power of eminent domain. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant may remove and/or replace any mechanical equipment installed by a
predecessor tenant as aforesaid in connection with Tenant's alterations of the
Premises or any operations of Tenant therein. Tenant shall surrender the
Premises and all alterations and additions thereto (except for any Optional
Removable Alterations which Tenant elects to remove as provided in Section 4.3),
at the end of the Term, broom clean and otherwise in the aforesaid condition,
first removing all goods and effects of Tenant and all Required Removable
Alterations, and restoring the Premises as contemplated in Section 4.3. Tenant
shall not permit or commit any waste.

     5.3  DELAYS IN LANDLORD'S SERVICES. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant
for any compensation or reduction of rent by reason of inconvenience or
annoyance or for loss of business arising from the necessity of Landlord or its
agents entering the Premises for any purposes authorized in this Lease, or for
repairing the Premises or any portion of the Building. Landlord shall, however,
comply with Sections 2.3 and 6.5. In case Landlord is prevented or delayed from
making any repairs, alterations or improvements, or furnishing any services or

                                       20
<PAGE>

performing any other covenant or duty to be performed on Landlord's part, by
reason of any External Cause, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant therefor,
nor, except as expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, shall Tenant be
entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent by reason thereof, nor shall the
same give rise to a claim in Tenant's favor that such failure constitutes actual
or constructive, total or partial, eviction from the Premises.

     Landlord reserves the right to stop any service or utility system when
necessary by reason of accident or emergency, until necessary repairs have been
completed; provided, however, that in each instance of stoppage, Landlord shall
exercise reasonable diligence to eliminate the cause thereof. Except in case of
emergency repairs, Landlord will give Tenant reasonable advance notice of any
contemplated stoppage and will use reasonable efforts to avoid unnecessary
inconvenience to Tenant by reason thereof. In no event shall Landlord have any
liability to Tenant for the unavailability of heat, light or any utility or
service to be provided by Landlord to the extent that such unavailability is
caused by External Causes.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or a portion of the Premises are
rendered untenantable by virtue of Landlord's inability due to External Causes
to furnish the services required on Landlord's part to be provided hereunder,
notice of which Tenant gives Landlord, then, to the extent of the proceeds, as
collected, of rent interruption insurance, Tenant shall be entitled to PER DIEM
equitable reduction in the Fixed Annual Rent and Additional Rent for the portion
of the Premises so rendered untenantable for each additional day the Premises or
such portion thereof remains untenantable. Landlord covenants and agrees to
carry rent interruption insurance at all times during the Term which, to the
extent commercially reasonable, permits recovery in not more than seven (7) days
from the occurrence of the insured peril.

6.   TENANT COVENANTS

     Tenant covenants during the Tern and for such further time as Tenant
occupies any part of the Premises:

     6.1  PERMITTED USES. Tenant shall occupy the Premises only for the
Permitted Uses. Landlord represents that the Building is located in the
Cambridge Revitalization Development District of the Cambridge Zoning Ordinance.
The zoning district permits general offices, technical offices for research and
development, laboratories and research facilities. The district also permits the
manufacturing of drugs and the fabrication, assembly, finishing work and
packaging of such drugs. All uses in Cambridge are subject to environmental
protections which require that: all dust, fumes, odors, smoke or vapor shall be
effectively confined to the premises or so disposed of as to avoid air
pollution; any noise, vibration or flashing shall not be normally perceptible
without instruments at a distance of one hundred feet from the premises; all
uses comply with Federal and State air pollution and water pollution control
regulations, the City of Cambridge Ordinances, and other applicable
environmental laws; and all refuse and other waste materials shall be stored
within buildings prior to collection and disposal.

     Tenant shall not injure or deface the Premises or the Property, nor permit
in the Premises any auction sale. Tenant shall furnish to Landlord,
contemporaneously with furnishing the same to the federal, state, municipal or
other governmental authorities to whom Tenant must report, a copy of Tenant's
reporting documentation required to be furnished in connection with Tenant's

                                       21
<PAGE>

use of materials at the Premises which, from time to time, appear on OSHA's
right to know list or which are subject to regulation by any other federal,
state, municipal or other governmental authority. If requested by Landlord,
Tenant shall not permit to be located on the Premises, and shall remove, any
such materials not maintained at the Premises in conformity with such applicable
federal, state, municipal or other governmental regulations. Nothing in the
immediately preceding sentence shall prohibit Tenant from contesting the
validity or applicability of any governmental law, order or regulation provided
that Tenant provides security therefor reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and
Tenant does not in any manner subject Landlord to risk of criminal liability or
subject the Property or any part thereof to risk of forfeiture. Tenant shall
comply with all requirements of public authorities and of the Board of Fire
Underwriters in connection with methods of storage, use and disposal thereof.
Tenant shall not permit in the Premises any nuisance, or the emission from the
Premises of any reasonably objectionable noise, odor or vibration, bearing in
mind, however, the Permitted Uses contemplated hereunder, nor shall Tenant use
or devote the Premises or any part thereof for any purpose which is contrary to
law or ordinance or which would, by reason of a particular use made by Tenant
other than generally for laboratories, offices and the manufacture of
pharmaceuticals, render the Premises uninsurable. If the uses to which Tenant
shall put the Premises results in premiums for any insurance on the Building or
its contents being greater than they would otherwise be for a fully sprinklered
manufacturing building, or would render necessary any alteration or addition to
the Building which would not otherwise be required in a fully sprinklered
manufacturing building, an equitable portion of the insurance premium, and the
entire cost of such alteration or addition, shall be reimbursed to Landlord by
Tenant so that Tenant bears the portion of the insurance premium, and the entire
costs of the alteration or addition, which is properly allocable only to Tenant
by virtue of its use of the Premises which is responsible therefor, all as
reasonably determined by Landlord based on information made available by
Landlord's insurer. Landlord's determination as aforesaid shall, by notice of
Tenant to Landlord, given within thirty (30) days of Landlord's notice to Tenant
of Tenant's liability under this paragraph, be subject to Dispute Resolution.

     Tenant shall not commit or permit any waste in or with respect to the
Premises, nor generate, store or dispose of any oil, toxic substances, hazardous
wastes, or hazardous materials (each, a "Hazardous Material"), or permit the
same in or on the 'Premises or any parking areas provided for under this Lease,
except as may be permitted by law. Tenant shall not dump, flush or in any way
introduce any Hazardous Materials into septic, sewage or other waste disposal
systems serving the Premises or any parking areas provided for under this Lease
except as may be permitted by law. Tenant will indemnify Landlord and its
successors and assigns against all claims, loss, cost, and expenses including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred as a result of any
contamination of the Building or any other portion of University Park with
Hazardous Materials by Tenant or Tenant's contractors, licensees, invitees,
agents, servants or employees.

     Tenant shall provide to Landlord a statement from Tenant's consultant
preparing any regulatory filings for licensing or permitting to handle hazardous
materials, setting forth in reasonable detail, and to Landlord's reasonable
satisfaction, all licenses and/or permits that Tenant is required to obtain or
will obtain in connection with its handling of Hazardous Materials at the
Premises, prior to the introduction of such Hazardous Materials therein, and,
once obtained, a certification that all such licenses and/or permits are valid
and in full force and effect.

                                       22
<PAGE>

Tenant shall not introduce into the Premises or maintain therein any Hazardous
Materials until Tenant shall have received all such licenses and/or permits
which shall then be lawfully necessary. From time to time hereafter, upon twenty
(20) days advance notice from Landlord, Tenant will provide Landlord with such
updated reports and/or certifications with respect to Tenant's compliance with,
the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2 as Landlord may reasonably request.

     6.2  LAWS AND REGULATIONS. Tenant shall comply with all federal, state and
local laws, regulations, ordinances, executive orders, Federal guidelines, and
similar requirements in effect from time to time, which are applicable to and
enforceable against Tenant, including, without limitation, City of Cambridge
ordinances with respect to animal experiments and hazardous waste and any such
requirements pertaining to employment opportunity, anti-discrimination and
affirmative action. Nothing in the immediately preceding sentence shall prohibit
Tenant from contesting the validity or applicability of any governmental law,
order or regulation provided that Tenant provides security therefor reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant does not in any manner subject Landlord to
risk of criminal liability, or subject the Property or any part thereof to risk
of forfeiture.

     6.3  RULES AND REGULATIONS. Except as otherwise provided in Exhibit F,
Tenant shall not obstruct in any manner any portion of the Property not hereby
leased; shall not permit the placing of any signs (except as contemplated in
Section 11.16), aerials or flagpoles, or the like, visible from outside the
Premises; and shall comply with all reasonable rules and regulations of uniform
application to all occupants of the Building now or hereafter made by Landlord,
of which Tenant has been given notice, for the care and use of the Property and
the parking facilities relating thereto. In the event of a conflict between such
rules and regulations and this Lease, this Lease shall control. Landlord shall
not be liable to Tenant for the failure of other occupants of the Building to
conform to any such rules and regulations. Landlord covenants and agrees,
however, following notice from Tenant, to use reasonable efforts to enforce such
rules and regulations against other occupants of the Building to the extent
non-compliance materially and adversely affects Tenant's use and occupancy of
the Premises.

     6.4  SAFETY COMPLIANCE. Tenant shall keep the Premises equipped with all
safety appliances required by law or ordinance or any other regulations of any
public authority because of any non-office use made by Tenant and to procure all
licenses and permits so required because of such use and, if requested by
Landlord, do any work so required because of such use, it being understood that
the foregoing provisions shall not be construed to broaden in any way Tenant's
Permitted Uses. To the best knowledge of the Property Manager of University
Park, the Building is not now in violation of any requirements of law pertaining
to safety applicable to either office or laboratory use.

     6.5  LANDLORD'S ENTRY. Tenant shall permit Landlord and its agents, after
reasonable notice except in the case of emergencies, to enter the Premises at
all reasonable hours for the purpose of inspecting or of making repairs to the
same subject to, the limitations under Section 2.3, monitoring Tenant's
compliance with the requirements and restrictions set forth in this Lease, and
for the purpose of showing the Premises to prospective purchasers and mortgagees
at all reasonable times and, within the last nine (9) months of the Term, to
prospective tenants, provided that in connection with any such entry, Tenant may
provide

                                       23
<PAGE>

procedures reasonably designed so as not to jeopardize Tenant's trade secrets,
proprietary technology, business operations and safety procedures including the
requirement that Landlord and its agents be escorted by an employee so long as
Tenant makes such escort reasonably available to Landlord and its agents.
Landlord shall comply with all such procedures. In the case of emergencies,
Landlord shall make a good faith attempt to give Tenant prior notice in person
or by telephone to the emergency number provided by Tenant to Landlord and, in
any event, shall notify Tenant of each such entry made promptly thereafter.

     6.6  FLOOR LOAD. Tenant shall not place a load upon any floor in the
Premises exceeding the floor load per square foot of area which such floor was
designed to carry and which is allowed by law, which floor loads are set forth
in Exhibit L hereto; and, except to the extent contemplated in an approved
alteration, not move any safe, vault or other heavy equipment in, about or out
of the Premises except in such manner and at such time as Landlord shall in each
instance authorize. Tenant's machines and mechanical equipment shall be placed
and maintained by Tenant at the Tenant's expense in settings sufficient to
absorb or prevent unreasonable levels of vibration or noise that may be
transmitted to the Building structure or to any other space in the Building. All
installations of equipment in the Penthouse, on the roof or otherwise on the
exterior of the Building shall be subject to Landlord's reasonable approval, and
in no event shall such installation exceed the live load which the roof was
designed to carry and which is permitted under the appropriate building code.

     6.7  PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid promptly
when due all taxes which may be imposed upon personal property (including,
without limitation, fixtures and equipment) in the Premises to whomever
assessed.

     6.8  ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASES. Tenant shall not assign, mortgage, pledge,
hypothecate or otherwise transfer this Lease, or sublet (which term, without
limitation, shall include granting of concessions, licenses and the like) the
whole or any part of the Premises without, in each instance, having first
received the consent of Landlord which consent Landlord agrees not to
unreasonably withhold. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.8 to
the contrary, Tenant may, without obtaining the prior consent of the Landlord,
assign or sublet this Lease to a (i) parent of Tenant, (ii) subsidiary of
Tenant, (iii) affiliate of Tenant (including any entity into which Tenant may be
merged or consolidated), or (iv) the acquiror of more than fifty percent (50%)
of the capital stock of Tenant or more than fifty percent (50%) of the value of
the assets of Tenant provided such assignee or subtenant enters into a
reasonably, mutually agreeable assumption agreement with Landlord pursuant to
which it assumes the responsibilities and obligations of Tenant hereunder from
and after the effective date of such acquisition, and with respect to any
assignment or sublease under (iv) hereunder, provided such assignee or subtenant
has at the time of such assignment or sublet sufficient creditworthiness and
financial capacity to undertake the obligations it would assume hereby; any
determination as to item (iv) above shall be subject to Dispute Resolution. Any
assignment or sublease requiring Landlord's consent as aforesaid and which is
made without such consent shall be void. Landlord shall not be deemed to be
unreasonable in withholding its consent to any proposed assignment or subletting
by Tenant based on any of the following factors:

          (a) The use to which the proposed occupant is to put the Premises,
notwithstanding that the same falls within the definition of Permitted Uses, is
not consistent with

                                       24
<PAGE>

the character of the Building as a first class office/R&D Building in Landlord's
judgment which shall be subject to Dispute Resolution.

          (b) The proposed occupant would occupy space in a configuration so as
to diminish the commercially reasonable operations of the Building.

     Whether or not Landlord consents to any assignment or subletting, Tenant
named herein shall remain fully and ..primarily liable for the obligations of
the tenant hereunder, including, without limitation, the obligation to pay
Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent provided under this Lease.

     Tenant shall give Landlord notice of any proposed sublease or assignment,
specifying the provisions of the proposed subletting or assignment, including
(i) the name and address of the proposed subtenant or assignee, (ii) a copy of
the proposed subtenant's or assignee's most recent annual financial statement,
(iii) all of the material terms and provisions upon which the proposed
subletting or assignment is to be made and such other information concerning the
proposed subtenant or assignee as Tenant has obtained in connection with the
proposed subletting or assignment. Landlord shall give notice to Tenant, either
consenting or withholding consent, within ten (10) days of Tenant's notice to
Landlord fulfilling the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence.
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord promptly for reasonable legal and other expense
incurred by Landlord in connection with any request by Tenant for consent to any
assignment or subletting. If this Lease is assigned, or if the Premises or any
part thereof is sublet or occupied by anyone other than Tenant, Landlord may, at
any time and from time to time, collect rent and other charges from the
assignee, sublessee or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the rent
and other charges herein reserved, but no such assignment, subletting, occupancy
or collection shall be deemed a waiver of the prohibitions contained in this
Section 6.8 or the acceptance of the assignee, sublessee or occupant as a
tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of
covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. If this Lease is assigned, or
if the Premises or any part thereof is sublet, then, unless Landlord shall have
duly exercised its right to repossess the space as provided in the last
paragraph of this Section 6.8, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the following:


                                       25
<PAGE>

     The consent by Landlord to an assignment or subletting shall not be
construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining the express consent in writing of
Landlord to any further assignment or subletting.

     Without limiting the foregoing, upon receipt of written notice from Tenant
of any proposed assignment of this Lease or sublease of more than fifty percent
(50%) of the rentable square footage of the Premises which will be effective
from and after the expiration of the Initial Term for the remainder of the Term
(excepting only a proposed assignment or sublease to an entity contemplated in
clauses (i) through (iv) of the first paragraph of this Section 6.8), Landlord
may elect, within ten (10) days of receipt of written notice from Tenant of any
proposed assignment or sublease, prior to approving or disapproving any proposed
assignment or sublease, to repossess the space proposed to be assigned or
sublet. Landlord may thereafter lease the repossessed space in such a manner as
Landlord may in its sole discretion determine. In the event Landlord elects to
repossess the space as provided above, then all of Tenant's rights and
obligations hereunder with respect to the repossessed space shall cease and
shall be of no further force and effect with respect to the period following
Landlord's repossession of such space.

7.   INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE

     7.1  INDEMNITY. To the maximum extent this agreement may be made effective
according to law, Tenant agrees to indemnify and save harmless Landlord and its
officers, directors, agents, contractors and employees from and against all
claims, loss, or damage of whatever nature arising from (i) any breach by Tenant
of any obligation of Tenant under this Lease, or (ii) any accident, injury or
damage whatsoever caused to any person or property, occurring after the date
that possession of the Premises, or any part thereof, is first delivered to
Tenant and until the end of the Term and thereafter, so long as Tenant is in
occupancy of any part of the Premises, in or about the Premises, or (iii) any
accident, injury or damage occurring other than in or about the Premises,
whether within the Building, on the Land, on the access roads and ways, in the
parking facilities provided pursuant to the Lease, or elsewhere, where such
accident, injury or damage results from the act, omission or negligence of
Tenant, or Tenant's contractors, licensees, invitees, agents, servants or
employees; provided that the foregoing indemnity shall not include any cost or
damage arising from any act, omission or negligence of Landlord, or Landlord's
contractors, licensees, invitees, agents, servants or employees. This indemnity
and hold harmless agreement shall include indemnity against reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements and all other costs, expenses and liabilities
incurred or in connection with any such claim or proceeding brought thereon, and
the defense thereof. Landlord agrees to indemnify and save harmless Tenant and
its officers, directors, agents, contractors and employees from and against all
claims of whatever nature arising from (i) any breach by Landlord of Landlord's
obligations under this Lease, and (ii) any negligent or wrongful act or omission
of Landlord or any of its employees, agents or contractors, whether resulting in
injury or death to persons or damage to property or otherwise.

     7.2  LIABILITY INSURANCE. Tenant agrees to maintain in full force from the
date that possession of the Premises, or any part thereof, is first delivered to
Tenant, throughout the Term, and thereafter, so long as Tenant is in occupancy
of any part of the Premises, a policy of comprehensive general liability
insurance under which Landlord (and any individuals or entities affiliated with
Landlord, any ground lessor and any holder of a mortgage on the Property of

                                       26
<PAGE>

whom Tenant shall have been notified by Landlord) and Tenant are named as
additional insureds, and under which the insurer provides a contractual
liability endorsement insuring against all cost, expense and liability arising
out of or based upon any and all claims, accidents, injuries and damages
described in Section 7.1, in the broadest form of such coverage from time to
time available. Each such policy shall be noncancellable and nonamendable (to
the extent that any proposed amendment reduces the limits or the scope of the
insurance required in this Lease) with respect to Landlord and such ground
lessors and mortgagees without thirty (30) days' prior notice to Landlord and
such ground lessors and mortgagees and at the election of Landlord, either a
certificate of insurance or a duplicate original policy shall be delivered to
Landlord. The minimum limits of liability of such insurance as of the
Commencement Date shall be One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) combined single
limit for bodily injury or death, with a Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000.00)
excess liability umbrella over and above the aforesaid primary limits, and from
time to time during the Term such limits of liability shall be increased to
reflect such higher limits as are customarily required, in Landlord's reasonable
judgment, pursuant to new leases of space in the Boston-Cambridge area with
respect to similar properties and similar uses, the reasonableness of Landlord's
determination being subject to Dispute Resolution.

     7.3  PERSONAL PROPERTY AT RISK. Tenant agrees that all of the furnishings,
fixtures, equipment, effects and property of every kind, nature and description
of Tenant and of all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant which, during
the continuance of this Lease or any occupancy of the Premises by Tenant or
anyone claiming under Tenant, may be on the Premises or elsewhere in the
Building or on the lot or parking facilities provided hereby, shall be at the
sole risk and hazard of Tenant, and if the whole or any part thereof shall be
destroyed or damaged by fire, water or otherwise, or by the leakage or bursting
of water pipes, steam pipes, or other pipes, by theft or from any other cause,
no part of said loss or damage is to be charged to or be borne by Landlord,
except that Landlord shall in no event be exonerated from any liability to
Tenant or to any person, for any injury, loss, damage or liability to the extent
the same is caused by the negligence or wrongful act of Landlord and its agents,
contractors or employees. Tenant shall carry casualty insurance covering
Tenant's personal property as aforesaid, with commercially reasonable
deductibles, in a commercially reasonable amount given Landlord's rights under
Section 7.5, subject to Dispute Resolution.

     7.4  LANDLORD'S INSURANCE. Landlord shall carry such casualty and liability
insurance upon and with respect to operations at the Building, with commercially
reasonable deductibles, as may from time to time be deemed reasonably prudent by
Landlord with reference to similar properties and similar uses in the
Boston-Cambridge area or required by any mortgagee holding a mortgage thereon or
any ground lessor of the Land, and in any event, insurance against loss by fire
and the risks now covered by an "all-risk" insurance policy with an extended
coverage endorsement (including coverage against such perils as breakage of
glass, sprinkler leakage, boiler explosion, machinery breakdown and collapse) in
an amount at least equal to eighty percent (80%) of the replacement value of the
Building, exclusive of foundations, site preparation and other nonrecurring
construction costs.

     7.5  WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Any insurance carried by either party with
respect to the Building, Land, Premises, parking facilities or any property
therein or occurrences thereon shall, without further request by either party,
if it can be so written without additional premium, or with an additional
premium which the other party may elect to pay, include a clause or endorsement

                                       27
<PAGE>

denying to the insurer rights of subrogation against the other party to the
extent rights have been waived by the insured prior to occurrence of injury or
loss. Each party, notwithstanding any provisions of this Lease to the contrary,
hereby waives any rights of recovery against the other for indemnification,
injury or loss, including, without limitation, injury or loss caused by
negligence of such other party, due to hazards covered by insurance containing
such clause or endorsement to the extent of the indemnification received
thereunder.

8.   CASUALTY AND EMINENT DOMAIN

     8.1  RESTORATION FOLLOWING CASUALTIES. If, during the Term, the Building or
Premises shall be damaged by fire or casualty, subject to the exceptions and
limitations provided below, Landlord shall proceed promptly (but not before
insurance proceeds are available for application to the cost thereof) and
diligently continue until completion, subject to External Causes, to restore the
Building or Premises to substantially the condition thereof at the time of such
damage. Landlord shall have no obligation to expend in the reconstruction of the
Building more than the actual amount of the insurance proceeds made available by
its insurer plus the amount of the insurance deductible and the amount by which
Landlord may have co-insured. Any restoration of the Building or the Premises
shall be altered to the extent necessary to comply with then current laws and
applicable codes.

     8.2  LANDLORD'S TERMINATION ELECTION. If the Building has been so damaged
that (a) any restoration will, in Landlord's reasonable judgment based upon an
independent architect's certification (i) once commenced, take longer than one
hundred and eighty (180) days to complete or (ii) cannot, with due diligence, be
completed within two hundred seventy (270) days of the occurrence of the damage
and (b) by virtue of the extent of the damage, it is appropriate for Landlord to
raze or substantially alter the Building, then provided Landlord (i) terminates
all of the leases in the Building (except that during the last three (3) years
of the Term, Landlord shall be required to terminate only leases covering an
aggregate of 80% of the rentable floor area of the Building), and (ii) intends
in good faith to raze or substantially alter the Building, Landlord may
terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant (together with such architect's
certification) within sixty (60) days after the date of the casualty. Any such
termination shall be effective on the date designated in such notice from
Landlord, but in any event, not later than sixty (60) days after such notice,
and if no date is specified, effective upon the delivery of such notice.

     8.3  TENANT'S TERMINATION ELECTION. If ten percent (10%) of that portion of
the Premises devoted to laboratory uses or twenty-five percent (25%) of that
portion of the Premises devoted to office uses is damaged by fire or casualty
and any restoration thereof will, in Landlord's reasonable judgment based upon
an independent architect's certification (the reasonability of which
certification shall be subject to Dispute Resolution requested within five (5)
business days of Landlord's delivery thereof to Tenant) (i) once commenced, take
longer than one hundred eighty (180) days to complete or (ii) cannot, with due
diligence, be completed within two hundred seventy (270) days of the occurrence
of the damage, then Landlord shall give notice to such effect to Tenant within
sixty (60) days of the occurrence of the fire or casualty and Tenant may elect,
by notice given by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days of Landlord's
notice as aforesaid (together with such architect's certification), to terminate
this Lease effective upon the delivery of Tenant's notice. Conversely, if in
Landlord's reasonable judgment the

                                       28
<PAGE>

restoration can be completed without exceeding the time thresholds referred to
in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 8.3, then Landlord shall give notice to
such effect to Tenant within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of the fire or
casualty together with an independent architect's certification substantiating
the time frame for the restoration which Landlord contemplates. The
reasonability of this certification shall be subject to Dispute Resolution
requested within five (5) business days of Landlord's delivery thereof to
Tenant.

     If following commencement of the restoration, the restoration is not
completed within the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above, or
the two hundred seventy (270) day period, as applicable, then Tenant may
terminate this Lease at any time thereafter upon thirty (30) days prior written
notice to Landlord provided that if Landlord shall have completed the
restoration of the Premises before the expiration of such thirty (30) day
period, Tenant's notice of termination shall be deemed void and of no effect.

     8.4  CASUALTY AT EXPIRATION OF LEASE. If the Premises shall be damaged by
fire or casualty in such a manner that the Premises cannot, in the ordinary
course, reasonably be expected to be repaired within one hundred and twenty
(120) days from the commencement of repair work and such damage occurs within
the last eighteen (18) months of the Term then either party shall have the
right, by giving notice to the other not later than sixty (60) days after such
damage, to terminate this, Lease, whereupon this Lease shall terminate as of the
date of such notice; provided, however, that if at least nine (9) months remain
in the Term and Tenant elects to extend the Term pursuant to Section 2.6
(thereby waiving its right to terminate this Lease under this Section 8.4)
within ten (10) days of the giving of Landlord's notice of termination, then
Landlord's notice of termination shall be deemed void and of no effect.

     8.5  EMINENT DOMAIN. Except as hereinafter provided, if the Building, or
such portion thereof as to render the balance (if reconstructed to the maximum
extent practicable in the circumstances) unsuitable for Tenant's purposes, shall
be taken by condemnation or right of eminent domain, or if Tenant's parking
privileges should be substantially reduced thereby, Tenant shall have the right
to terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord of its desire to do so, provided
that such notice is given not later than thirty (30) days after the effective
date of such taking. If so much of the Building shall be so taken that Landlord
(i) terminates all of the leases in the Building (except that during the last
three (3) years of the Term, Landlord shall be required to terminate only leases
covering an aggregate of 80% of the rentable floor area of the Building), and
(ii) determines that it would be appropriate to raze or substantially alter the
Building, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving notice
to Tenant of Landlord's desire to do so not later than thirty (30) days after
the effective date of such taking.

     Should any part of the Premises be so taken or condemned during the Term,
and should this Lease be not terminated in accordance with the foregoing
provisions, Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to put what may remain of
the Premises into proper condition for use and occupation as nearly like the
condition of the Premises prior to such taking as shall be practicable, and
furnish or cause to be furnished parking privileges to Tenant consistent with
the terms of this Lease subject, however, to applicable laws and codes then in
existence and to the availability of sufficient proceeds from the eminent domain
taking.

                                       29
<PAGE>

     8.6  RENT AFTER CASUALTY OR TAKING. If the Premises shall be damaged or
rendered untenantable or inaccessible by fire or other casualty to the Premises
and/or the Building, except as provided below, until the Lease has been
terminated or the restoration work has been completed, the Annual Fixed Rent and
Additional Rent shall be justly and equitably abated and reduced according to
the rentable square footage of the part of the Premises which is untenantable or
inaccessible by Tenant. In the event of a taking which permanently reduces the
area of the Premises, a just proportion of the Annual Fixed Rent shall be abated
for the remainder of the Term.

     8.7  TEMPORARY TAKING. In the event of any taking of the Premises or any
part thereof for a temporary use not in excess of six (6) months, (i) this Lease
shall be and remain unaffected thereby and Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent
shall not abate, and (ii) Tenant shall be entitled to receive for itself such
portion or portions of any award made for such use with respect to the period of
the taking which is within the Term.

     8.8  TAKING AWARD. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.7, Landlord
shall have and hereby reserves and excepts, and Tenant hereby grants and assigns
to Landlord, all rights to recover for damages to the Building and the Land, and
the leasehold interest hereby created, and to compensation accrued or hereafter
to accrue by reason of such taking, damage or destruction, as aforesaid, and by
way of confirming the foregoing, Tenant hereby grants and assigns to Landlord,
all rights to such damages or compensation. Nothing contained herein shall be
construed to prevent Tenant from prosecuting in any condemnation proceedings a
claim for relocation expenses and/or loss of leasehold improvements owned by
Tenant.

9.   DEFAULT

     9.1  TENANT'S DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of
Default:

          (a) Failure on the part of Tenant to pay the Annual Fixed Rent,
Additional Rent or other charges for which provision is made herein on or before
the date on which the same become due and payable, if such condition continues
for ten (10) days after written notice, provided, however, that only two (2)
such notices shall be required in any consecutive twelve-month period for
failure to pay the Fixed Annual Rent; or

          (b) Failure on the part of Tenant to perform or observe any other term
or condition contained in this Lease if Tenant 'shall not cure such failure
within thirty (30) days after notice from Landlord to Tenant thereof, provided
that in the case of breaches of obligations under this Lease which are
susceptible to cure but cannot be cured within thirty (30) days through the
exercise of due diligence, so long as Tenant commences such cure within thirty
(30) days, such breach remains susceptible to cure, and Tenant diligently
pursues such cure, such breach shall not be deemed to create an Event of
Default.

     If an Event of Default shall occur, then, in any such case, whether or not
the Term shall have begun, Landlord lawfully may, immediately or at any time
thereafter, give notice to Tenant specifying the Event of Default and this Lease
shall come to an end on the date specified therein as fully and completely as if
such date were the date herein originally fixed for the expiration of

                                       30
<PAGE>

the Lease Term, and Tenant will then quit and surrender the Premises to
Landlord, but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided.

     9.2  DAMAGES. In the event that this Lease is terminated, Tenant covenants
to pay punctually to Landlord all the sums ("Periodic Payments") and perform all
the obligations which Tenant covenants in this Lease to pay and to perform in
the same manner and to the same extent and at the same time as if this Lease had
not been terminated. In calculating the amounts to be paid by Tenant under the
foregoing covenant, Tenant shall be credited with the net proceeds of any rent
obtained by reletting the Premises, after deducting all Landlord's expenses in
connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession
costs, brokerage commissions, fees for legal services and expenses of preparing
the Premises for such reletting. Landlord may (i) relet the Premises, or any
part or parts thereof, for a term or terms which may, at Landlord's option,
exceed or be equal to or less than the period which would otherwise have
constituted the balance of the Term, and may grant such concessions and free
rent as Landlord in its reasonable commercial judgment considers advisable or
necessary to relet the same and (ii) make such alterations, repairs and
improvements in the Premises as Landlord in its reasonable commercial judgment
considers advisable or necessary to relet the same. No action of Landlord in
accordance with the foregoing or failure to relet or to collect rent under
reletting shall operate to release or reduce Tenant's liability. Landlord agrees
to attempt in good faith to relet the Premises but Landlord shall be entitled to
seek to rent other properties of Landlord prior to reletting the Premises.

     At any time following the termination of this Lease, Landlord may elect to
receive, in lieu of receiving further Periodic Payments, an amount (the "Lump
Sum Payment") equal to the excess, if any, of the discounted present value (at
the legal interest rate) of the total rent reserved for the remainder of the
Term over the then discounted present fair rental value of the Premises for the
remainder of the Term. In calculating the rent reserved, there shall be
included, in addition to the Annual Fixed Rent and all Additional Rent (assuming
that Real Estate Taxes and Operating Expenses for the Property will increase
annually by a reasonable amount), the value of all other considerations agreed
to be paid or performed by Tenant over the remainder of the Term.

     9.3  CUMULATIVE RIGHTS. The specific remedies to which Landlord may resort
under the terms of this Lease are cumulative and are not intended to be
exclusive of any other remedies or means of redress to which it may be lawfully
entitled in case of any breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any provisions
of this Lease. In addition to the other remedies provided in this Lease,
Landlord shall be entitled to the restraint by injunction of the violation or
attempted or threatened violation of any of the covenants, conditions or
provisions of this Lease or to a decree compelling specific performance of any
such covenants, conditions or provisions. Nothing contained in this Lease shall
limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove for and obtain in proceedings
for bankruptcy, insolvency or like proceedings by reason of the termination of
this Lease, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law
in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages
are to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater, equal to, or less than
the amount of the loss or damages referred to above.

                                       31
<PAGE>

     9.4  LANDLORD'S SELF-HELP. If Tenant shall at any time default in the
performance of any obligation under this Lease, Landlord shall have the right in
the event of material risk of damage or injury, but not the obligation, upon
reasonable, but in no event less than ten (10) days' notice to Tenant (except in
case of emergency in which case no notice need be given), to perform such
obligation. Landlord may exercise its rights under this Section without waiving
any other of its rights or releasing Tenant from any of its obligations under
this Lease.

     9.5  ENFORCEMENT EXPENSES. Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for all
reasonable costs and expenses, including without, limitation reasonable legal
fees and disbursements, incurred by Landlord in exercising and enforcing its
rights under Section 9.4 following Tenant's failure to comply with its
obligations hereunder, whether or not such failure constitutes an Event of
Default on the part of Tenant, together with interest at the applicable rate
specified in Section 9.6 from the date paid by Landlord. Landlord shall also be
entitled to reimbursement, as a component of damages, of all of Landlord's
reasonable costs and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable legal
fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with enforcing Landlord's rights
under this Lease following an Event of Default. Landlord shall promptly
reimburse Tenant for all reasonable costs and expenses, including without
limitation reasonable legal fees and disbursements, incurred by Tenant in
exercising its self-help rights under Section 9.7 and enforcing any rights
Tenant may have following a default by Landlord under this Lease.

     9.6  LATE CHARGES AND INTEREST ON OVERDUE PAYMENTS. In the event that any
payment of Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent shall remain unpaid for a period
of ten (10) business days following notice by Landlord to Tenant that such
payment is overdue, there shall become due to Landlord from Tenant, as
Additional Rent and as compensation for Landlord's extra administrative costs in
investigating the circumstances of late rent, a late charge of three percent
(3%) of the amount overdue. In addition, any Annual Fixed Rent and Additional
Rent not paid when due shall bear interest from the date due to Landlord until
paid at the variable rate (the "Default Interest Rate") equal to the higher of
(i) the rate at which interest accrues on amounts not paid when due under the
terms of Landlord's financing for the Building, as from time to time in effect,
and (ii) one hundred and twenty-five percent (125%) of the rate from time to
time announced by The First National Bank of Boston as its base rate, or if such
rate can no longer be determined, one hundred and twenty-five percent (125%) of
the rate from time to time announced by a major commercial bank selected by
Landlord as its base or prime rate.

     9.7  LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO NOTICE AND CURE; TENANT'S SELF-HELP. Landlord
shall in no event be in default in the performance of any of Landlord's
obligations hereunder unless and until Landlord shall have failed to perform
such obligations within thirty (30) days, or such additional time as is
reasonably required to correct any such default, after notice by Tenant to
Landlord expressly specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform any such
obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord shall fail to make a
repair which results in material risk of damage or injury to persons or property
within the Premises, Tenant shall have the right, upon ten (10) days prior
notice to Landlord, to perform such obligation so long as the same may be done
solely within the Premises or the common areas of the Building. Tenant may
exercise its rights under the preceding sentence without waiving any other of
its rights or releasing Landlord of any of its obligations under this Lease.

10.  MORTGAGEES' AND GROUND LESSORS' RIGHTS

     10.1 SUBORDINATION. This Lease shall, at the election of 'the holder of any
mortgage or ground lease on the Property, be subject and subordinate to such
mortgage or ground lease on the Property, so that the lien of any such mortgage
or ground lease shall be superior to all rights hereby or hereafter vested in
Tenant provided and solely on the condition that such mortgagee and ground
lessor shall have entered into a mutually agreeable non-disturbance and
attornment agreement with Tenant, which agreement contains usual, customary and
reasonable protection's of the rights of the mortgagee or ground lessor.

     10.2 PREPAYMENT OF RENT NOT TO BIND MORTGAGEE. No Annual Fixed Rent,
Additional Rent, or any other charge payable to Landlord (except for payments on
account of Tax Expenses Allocable to the Premises or Operating Expenses
Allocable to the Premises pursuant to the terms of this Lease and the Lump Sum
Payment) shall be paid more than thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof
under the terms of this Lease and payments made in violation of this provision
shall (except to the extent that such payments are actually received by a
mortgagee or ground lessor) be a nullity as against such mortgagee or ground
lessor and Tenant shall be liable for the amount of such payments to such
mortgagee or ground lessor.

     10.3 TENANT'S DUTY TO NOTIFY MORTGAGEE; MORTGAGEE'S ABILITY TO CURE. No act
or failure to act on the part of Landlord which would entitle Tenant under the
terms of this Lease, or by law, to be relieved of the Tenant's obligations to
pay Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent hereunder or to terminate this Lease,
shall result in a release or termination of such obligations of Tenant or a
termination of this Lease unless (i) Tenant shall have first given written
notice of Landlord's act or failure to act to Landlord's mortgagees or ground
lessors of record, if any, of whose identity and address Tenant shall have been
given notice, specifying the act or failure to act on the part of Landlord which
would give basis to Tenant's rights; and (ii) such mortgagees or ground lessors,
after receipt of such notice, have failed or refused to correct or cure the
condition complained of within a reasonable time thereafter, which shall include
a reasonable time for such mortgagee or ground lessors, to obtain possession of
the Property if possession is necessary for the mortgagee or ground lessor to
correct or cure the condition and if the mortgagee or ground lessor notifies
Tenant of its intention to take possession of the Property and correct or cure
such condition. Nothing in this Section 10.3 shall be construed as affecting
Tenant's right to terminate this Lease within the time frames set forth in
Sections 8.3, 8.4 or 8.5, or to effect its self-help remedy set forth in Section
9.7.

     10.4 ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Tenant shall from time to time, upon not less

     Landlord shall from time to time, upon not less than fifteen (15) days
prior written request by Tenant, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Tenant a

11.  DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Any dispute or determination by a party hereto which,
pursuant to the terms of this Lease, may be resolved by "Dispute Resolution",
shall be undertaken in accordance with the following provisions:

          (a) SERVICE OF DISPUTE NOTICE. In the event of any such dispute, the
complaining party (the "Claimant") shall serve upon the other party (the
"Respondent") by registered mail or hand delivery a written demand for
arbitration (the "Dispute Notice"), setting forth with particularity the nature
of the dispute. The Claimant shall simultaneously serve any request (the
"Document Request") for production of relevant documents from the Respondent.

                                       34
<PAGE>

The service of such Dispute Notice and Document Request shall be effective upon
receipt thereof. Failure to serve a Document Request shall constitute a waiver
by the Claimant of any right to demand documents from the Respondent, except as
provided in Subparagraph (c) below. The Dispute Notice shall also be delivered
to Ernst & Young, 2000 Pittsburgh National Building, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
15222, Attention: James L. Chemel, for mediation as part of that firm's national
mediation services expertise. Ernst & Young shall select a partner of Ernst &
Young to conduct the arbitration (hereinafter the "Arbitrator"), the choice of
which shall be binding on the parties. If Ernst & Young believes it has a
material conflict of interest with any of the parties, it shall select an
alternative "Big Six" firm (or another firm if none of the Big Six firms are
available) to conduct the arbitration, within ten (10) business days of receipt
of the Dispute Notice. If Ernst & Young shall cease to exist and/or shall
decline to serve under this Lease as to all or any particular dispute submitted
thereto for arbitration and, within ten (10) business days of receipt of a
Dispute Notice, shall fail to select an alternative "Big Six" firm (or another
firm if none of the Big Six firms are available), then and in any such event,
the parties shall mutually select an alternative arbitrator for their dispute(s)
and, in the absence of agreement within a period of ten (10) days, either party
shall have the right, on notice to the other, to apply for the appointment of an
independent arbitrator to the Boston office of the American Arbitration
Association (or any successor organization thereto).

          (b) RESPONSE BY RESPONDENT. Within ten (10) business days of receipt
of a Dispute Notice and Document Request, the Respondent shall serve a detailed
written response to the Dispute Notice, including any arbitrable counterclaims,
and shall produce all non-privileged documents called for in the Document
Request. At the same time, Respondent shall serve any Document Request on
Claimant, failing which Respondent shall be deemed to have waived any right to
demand documents from Claimant. Within two (2) business days of delivery of the
response, all undisputed amounts shall be paid by Respondent by wire transfer.

          (c) RESPONSE BY CLAIMANT. Within ten (10) business days of receipt of
such written response, the Claimant shall serve a reply to any counterclaims
asserted by Respondent and shall produce all non-privileged documents requested
by Respondent. At the same time, the Claimant may serve a second Document
Request limited to documents relevant to Respondent's counterclaim. Within two
(2) business days of delivery of the reply to any counterclaims, all undisputed
amounts shall be paid by the Claimant by wire transfer.

          (d) RESPONSE BY RESPONDENT. Respondent shall produce all
non-privileged documents called for in any such second Document Request within
ten (10) business days of service thereof.

          (e) APPEARANCE BEFORE ARBITRATOR. Within thirty-five (35) business
days of service of the Dispute Notice, any arbitrable dispute shall be submitted
to the Arbitrator, whose decision shall be final, binding and non-appealable,
and may be entered and enforced as a judgment by any court of competent
jurisdiction. The Arbitrator shall consider and determine only matters properly
subject to arbitration pursuant to this Lease.

     The Arbitrator shall, in consultation with the parties, establish such
further procedures, including hearings, as he or she deems appropriate,
provided, however, that a decision of the

                                       35
<PAGE>

dispute (including counterclaims) shall be rendered no later than sixty (60)
business days after service of the Dispute Notice.

          (f) FINAL DECISION; FEES AND EXPENSES. The Arbitrator's decision shall
be in writing, and shall include findings of fact and a concise explanation of
the reasons for the decision. The decision shall be delivered to the parties
immediately. The Arbitrator's fees and expenses shall be borne by one or both of
the parties in accordance with the direction of the Arbitrator, who shall be
guided in such determination by the results of the arbitration. If any party
refuses to appear before the Arbitrator or to respond as required in
subparagraphs (a) through (e) above, the Arbitrator shall decide the matter as

binding and non-appealable to the same extent as a decision rendered with the
full participation of such party.

obligations of this Lease shall run with the land, and this Lease shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective

period of its ownership. The obligations of Landlord shall be binding upon the
assets of Landlord consisting of an equity ownership of the Property but not

or through Tenant, shall be entitled to obtain any judgment creating personal
liability on the part of Landlord or enforcing any obligations of Landlord
against any assets of Landlord other than an equity ownership of the Property.

                                       36
<PAGE>

     Landlord's recourse to Tenant hereunder shall not include recourse
personally against Tenant's officers, directors or shareholders.

     12.4 WAIVERS BY THE LANDLORD OR TENANT. The failure of Landlord or Tenant
to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon strict performance of, any
covenant or condition of this Lease, shall not be deemed a waiver of such
violation nor prevent a subsequent act, which would have originally constituted
a violation, from having all the force and effect of an original violation. The
receipt by Landlord of Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent with knowledge of
the breach of any covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such
breach. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by
Landlord or Tenant, unless such waiver be in writing [Illegible] by such party.
No consent or waiver, express or implied, by Landlord to or of any breach of any
agreement or duty shall be construed as a waiver or consent to or of any other
breach of the same or any other agreement or duty.

     12.5 ACCEPTANCE OF PARTIAL PAYMENTS OF RENT. No acceptance by [Illegible]
of a lesser sum than the Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent then due shall be
deemed to be other than a partial installment of such rent due, nor shall any
endorsement or [Illegible] on any check or any letter accompanying any check or
[Illegible] as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and [Illegible] may
accept such check or payment without prejudice to [Illegible] right to recover
the balance of such installment or pursue [Illegible] other remedy in this Lease
provided. The delivery of [Illegible] any employee of Landlord or to Landlord's
agent or any [Illegible] thereof shall not operate as a termination of this
Lease [Illegible] surrender of the Premises.

     12.6 INTERPRETATION AND PARTIAL INVALIDITY. If any term of [Illegible] or
the application thereof to any person or [Illegible], shall to any extent be
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of
such term to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid
or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term of this Lease
shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. The
titles of the Articles are for convenience only and not to be considered in
construing this Lease. This Lease and the exhibits attached hereto contain all
of the agreements of the parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and
supersedes all prior dealings between them with respect to such subject matter.

     12.7 QUIET ENJOYMENT. So long as Tenant is not in default of its
obligations, beyond any applicable grace period, to pay the Annual Fixed Rent
and Additional Rent and perform all other Tenant covenants and conditions of
this Lease, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises
free of any claims by, through or under Landlord.

     12.8 BROKERAGE. Landlord and Tenant each represent and warrant to the other
that it has had no dealings with any broker or agent other than Meredith & Grew,
Incorporated and Lynch, Murphy, Walsh and Partners in connection with this Lease
and shall indemnify and hold harmless the other from claims for any brokerage
commission in connection with this Lease other than by Meredith & Grew,
Incorporated and Lynch, Murphy, Walsh and Partners arising out of its actions.

     Landlord agrees to pay the commission due to such brokers earned in
connection with this Lease.

     12.9 SURRENDER OF PREMISES AND HOLDING OVER. Tenant shall surrender
possession of the Premises on the last day of the Term and Tenant waives the
right to any notice of termination or notice to quit. Tenant covenants that upon
the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, it shall, without notice,
deliver up and surrender possession of the Premises in the sane condition in
which Tenant has agreed to keep the same during the continuance of this Lease
and in accordance with the terms hereof, normal wear and tear excepted, first
removing therefrom all goods and effects of Tenant and any Required Removable
Alterations and repairing all damage caused by such removal and restoring the
Premises as provided in Section 4.3. Upon the expiration of this Lease, or if
the Premises should be abandoned by Tenant, or this Lease should terminate for
any cause, and at the time of such expiration, abandonment or termination,
Tenant or Tenant's agents, subtenants or any other person should leave any
property of any kind or character on or in the Premises, the fact of such
leaving of property on or in the Premises shall be conclusive evidence of intent
by Tenant, and individuals and entities deriving their rights through Tenant, to
abandon such property so left in or upon the Premises, and such leaving shall
constitute abandonment of the property. Landlord shall have the right and
authority without notice to Tenant or anyone else, to remove and destroy, or to
sell or authorize disposal of such property, or any part thereof, without being
in any way liable to Tenant therefor and the proceeds thereof shall belong to
Landlord as compensation for the removal and disposition of such property.

     If Tenant fails to surrender possession of the Premises upon the expiration
or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as rent for
any period after the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease an amount
equal to twice the Annual Fixed Rent and the Additional Rent required to be paid
under this Lease as applied to any period in which Tenant shall remain in
possession. Acceptance by Landlord of such payments shall not constitute a
consent to a holdover hereunder or result in a renewal or extension of Tenant's
rights of occupancy. Such payments shall be in addition to and shall not affect
or limit Landlord's right of re-entry, Landlord's right to collect such damages
as may be available at law, or any other rights of Landlord under this Lease or
as provided by law.

     12.10 LIMITATION OF CAUSES OF ACTION AND DAMAGES. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary provided in this Lease, Landlord and Tenant each waive, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, any claim against the other for consequential
damages in connection with a dispute arising out of this Lease. Whenever in this
Lease it provides that, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent,
unless Landlord is determined not to have been acting in good faith in
withholding, its consent, in which case Tenant shall be entitled to seek damages
and other remedies at law, Tenant's sole remedy shall be by way of specific
performance to compel the granting of such consent. Whenever in this Lease it is
provided that a determination is subject to Dispute Resolution, and Tenant fails
within the time period provided to request such Dispute Resolution, the
determination in question shall no longer be subject to Dispute Resolution or
resolution by any court of law or otherwise; Tenant shall be deemed to have
consented to such determination.

     12.11 SECURITY DEPOSIT. Upon the expiration of the Guaranty, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord a security deposit of [Illegible] of the Annual Fixed Rent then
payable under this Lease. Upon any increase in the Annual Fixed Rent, Tenant
shall supplement its security deposit by paying Landlord [Illegible] of the
amount by

                                       38
<PAGE>

which- tire Annual Fixed Rent is increased. Landlord shall maintain the security
deposit in a segregated account with any interest earned thereon accruing to the
benefit of Tenant and with the effect of increasing the security deposit
hereunder by the aggregate amount of such interest. Provided Tenant is not then
in default hereunder, Landlord shall return the then remaining portion of the
security deposit to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the expiration of this
Lease. In the event Landlord applies any such funds, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord as additional rent within ten (10) days after invoice therefor, the
amount of the security deposit applied by Landlord, such that the balance of the
security deposit shall be restored to its original amount (as supplemented as
hereinabove provided). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of a cash security
deposit, during the Term Tenant may furnish Landlord with a clean, irrevocable
letter of credit in the same amount as the security deposit required to be paid
by Tenant hereunder (excluding any interest which may have accrued thereon),
provided that Landlord shall be entitled to impose such reasonable terms and
conditions as Landlord may require to ensure the security offered by the
security deposit (e.g. written on a local bank of sufficient creditworthiness).
If Tenant shall furnish Landlord with a letter of credit under the circumstances
as aforesaid, any cash security deposit and interest which may have accrued
thereon shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant contemporaneously therewith.

     12.12 FINANCIAL REPORTING. Tenant shall from time to time (but at least
annually) provide Landlord with such financial statements of Tenant, together
with related statements of Tenant's operations for Tenant's most recent fiscal
year then ended, as are issued by Tenant to its shareholders.

     12.13 CAMBRIDGE EMPLOYMENT PLAN. Tenant agrees to sign an agreement with
the Employment and Training Agency designated by the City Manager of the City of
Cambridge as provided in subsections (a)-(g) of Section 24-4 of Ordinance Number
1005 of the City of Cambridge, adopted April 23, 1984.

     12.14 GUARANTY OF LEASE. The performance by Tenant of its obligations
hereunder are guaranteed by Guarantor's Guaranty, all as more particularly set
forth in such Guaranty. The Guaranty is a material inducement to Landlord
entering into this Lease.

     12.15 TENANT'S SIGN. So long as Tenant is itself (including all entities
for which Landlord's consent to assignment or sublease is not required under
Section 6.8) in occupancy of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the Premises,
but in no 'event less than the rentable square footage equal to 51% of the
Original Premises, Landlord agrees to permit Tenant to install in the location
shown on Exhibit J attached hereto a monument-type corporate identity sign which
in its size and scale, considering its location in the central circular planting
bed, is appropriate in Landlord and Tenant's mutual judgment, identifying the
Building as the headquarters of ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which shall in its
design, construction and materials used be reasonably satisfactory to Landlord
and Tenant in all respects. The reasonability of both parties under this Section
shall be subject to Dispute Resolution.

     From and after the Commencement Date, the Building shall no longer be
identified as "the Jackson Building," any signage identifying such name shall be
removed by Landlord and the Building shall instead be referred to as 26
Landsdowne Street.

                                       39
<PAGE>

     12.16 GROUND LEASE. This Lease is in all respects subject to the ground
lease (the "Ground Lease") between Landlord as lessee and Massachusetts
Institute of Technology ("MIT") as lessor dated as of August 20, 1986. Landlord
hereby represents and warrants to Tenant that the Ground Lease is not
inconsistent with the terms of this Lease with the result that Tenant would be
deprived of any of the rights and privileges to which it is entitled under this
Lease, should the Ground Lease be terminated and MIT then own the Building with
the obligation to recognize this Lease pursuant to the Non-Disturbance and
Attornment Agreement between MIT and Tenant delivered in connection herewith.
Whenever in this Lease it has been agreed by Landlord that its consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld, Landlord's inability to obtain the consent of MIT
shall not constitute a reasonable justification for withholding its consent
where, in all other respects, Landlord would not be entitled to withhold its
consent. Prior to entering into any amendment or modification of this Lease with
Tenant, Landlord shall have previously obtained from MIT any consent with
respect to such amendment or modification required therefrom.

     12.17 STORAGE. There is no storage space in the Building which Landlord can
offer Tenant. However, Landlord and Tenant agree to work together to attempt to
find a solution to Tenant's storage needs.

     12.18 PARKING LOT SECURITY AND ACCESS. Landlord and Tenant agree to work
together to develop possible alternative parking lot security programs and
measures to meet the needs of Tenant and the other tenants of the Building,
which may include, without limitation, security gates, enclosing the parking lot
with key card access, van transport to local bus stops during non-daylight
commuting hours, etc. If and when a mutually satisfactory action program has
been defined, Landlord agrees to implement the same.

     12.19 PREMISES SECURITY AND ACCESS. Subject to the conditions set forth
below, Tenant shall have the right, at its own sole cost and expense, to modify
the Building elevators, stairwells and fire door access systems by installing a
so-called "card key" security system permitting Tenant to lock-out access to all
or portions of the Premises, whether by elevator or stairs, to those not in
possession of a valid card key. Tenant's installation shall be subject to
Landlord's approval in accordance with Section 4, which approval Landlord agrees
not to unreasonably withhold or delay, it being agreed that Landlord's approval
shall be based entirely on the compatibility of Tenant's proposed alteration
with the security and fire systems of the Building, any existing mechanical or
electrical limitations of the elevator circuitry and the extent of interference
with other tenant's use of the Building. Throughout the Term, Tenant shall
maintain in good order, condition and repair any such card key system installed
by Tenant and may remove and/or replace the same, subject to restoring any
damage to the Building resulting therefrom.. Upon the expiration or any earlier
termination of this Lease, Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any card
key system theretofore installed.

     12.20 ABSENCE OF ASBESTOS AND PCBS. Landlord represents and warrants to
Tenant that (i) the airborne concentration in the Building of asbestos,
tremolite, anthophyllite, actinolite, or a combination of these materials, does
not exceed the permissible exposure limit of 0.2 fiber per cubic centimeter of
air as an eight (8)-hour time weighted average, as determined in accordance with
the OSHA Asbestos Regulations for General Industry (29 CFR 1910.1001), and (ii)
there are no PCB's in the Premises.

                                       40
<PAGE>

     If in the course of Tenant's occupancy there is discovered PCBs in the
Premises or if Tenant shall locate asbestos in the Premises which Tenant has not
introduced, therein and which must be removed or encapsulated to permit Tenant
to make alterations, then and in any such event, the same shall be so removed or
encapsulated (unless the remedy of encapsulation is inappropriate given the
nature of Tenant's intended alternations) promptly by Landlord at its sole
expense and Landlord shall repair any damage to Tenant's installation arising
therefrom. If any such work by Landlord shall delay Tenant's initial
installation as provided in Exhibit C-1 to the Work Letter, Tenant shall be
entitled to one day delay of the Annual Fixed Rent Commencement Date for the
affected portion of the Premises, for each day of such delay.

     12.21 MISCELLANEOUS. It is understood and agreed that in the event of any
inconsistencies between the Lease and Exhibits D and E hereof, the Lease shall
control. It is further agreed that Tenant may keep laboratory animals,
including, without limitation, mice, rabbits, guinea pigs and rats upon the
Premises provided Tenant maintains the animal areas in a safe and sanitary
condition at all times and shall not permit any waste or unreasonable levels of
odors outside the animal area and shall abide by all City, State, and Federal
Rules and Regulations with regard to the keeping of laboratory animals in
accordance with Section 6.1 hereof, and Landlord's reasonable Rules and
Regulations promulgated from time to time of which Landlord has notified Tenant
in advance in writing.

Original Premises:       Approximately 42,396 rentable square feet of floor
                         area, as finally established pursuant to Section 2.8,
                         including approximately 2,000 rentable square feet on
                         the first floor of the Building (to be finally
                         established pursuant to Section 2.8), 19,911 rentable
                         square feet on the second floor of the Building and
                         20,485 rentable square feet on the fifth floor of the
                         Building. Portions of the Original Premises shall be
                         delivered to Tenant in accordance with the Scheduled
                         Delivery Dates.

Parking Privileges:      During the Term, Landlord shall provide two (2) parking
                         spaces per one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of
                         floor area of the Premises, or portion thereof
                         delivered to Tenant; however, Landlord need not provide
                         any fractional parking spaces and may reduce the number
                         of parking spaces provided to the next closest whole
                         number. Initially, and so long as Landlord is able to
                         provide surface parking without interfering with
                         Landlord's plans for the development and leasing of the
                         adjacent portions of University Park, Landlord shall
                         provide surface parking for use by Tenant in the
                         Building lot. If during the Term, Landlord is no longer
                         able to

<PAGE>

                         provide sufficient parking spaces without interfering
                         with the development and leasing of the adjacent
                         portions of University Park, Landlord shall provide one
                         and one-half (1 1/2) parking spaces per one thousand
                         (1,000) rentable square feet of floor area of the
                         Premises for use of Tenant in garages or other surface
                         parking lots provided that Landlord shall use
                         reasonable efforts, in allocating available spaces, to
                         maintain the ratio of Tenant's parking spaces of two
                         (2) parking spaces per one thousand (1,000) rentable
                         square feet of floor area of the Premises.
                         Notwithstanding any proposed multiple use of a Garage
                         providing parking spaces agreed to be provided
                         hereunder, Landlord shall at all times be obligated to
                         provide Tenant with the number of parking spaces
                         provided by this paragraph. During the Term, Tenant
                         shall pay the market rate from time to time in effect
                         (which shall be comparable to that charged in other
                         first class office and R&D projects in Cambridge) for
                         any parking spaces provided by Landlord in the Building
                         lot, or in garages or in other surface parking lots as
                         the case may be. Currently, the monthly market rate for
                         each parking space is [Illegible]. The determination of
                         such fair market rate shall be subject to Dispute
                         Resolution. Tenant shall pay monthly for each parking
                         space in the same manner and at the same time as the
                         monthly installment of Annual Fixed Rent then due.

                         development, laboratories and research facilities,

                                     EXHIBIT A-1

                 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES IN RESPECT OF LATE DELIVERY


1.   Landlord can delay the delivery of 25,511 s.f. of space which is scheduled
     to be delivered on March 1, 1992, beyond the Scheduled Delivery Date until
     any date no later than April 15, 1992. For each day of delay in delivery of
     such space following March 1, 1992, Tenant shall be entitled to one day
     delay of the Annual Fixed Rent Commencement Date with respect to such
     space. By way of example, if the foregoing portion of the Premises shall be
     delivered by Landlord to Tenant on March 31, 1992, the Annual Fixed Rent
     Commencement Date for such portion of the Premises shall be four (4) months
     after such date of delivery. In the event that such space is not delivered
     to Tenant by April 15, 1992, Tenant shall have the right, exercised at any
     time prior to the delivery of such space to Tenant, to terminate this Lease
     upon delivery of written notice of such termination to Landlord. Tenant
     shall not be entitled to any damages in the event that Tenant exercises
     such right to terminate provided Landlord has acted in good faith with
     respect to the delivery of such space.

2.   Landlord can delay the delivery of 11,030 s.f. of space (the "Last Space")
     scheduled to be delivered on April 15, 1992 beyond the Scheduled Delivery
     Date until any date no later than June 15, 1992. For each day of delay in
     delivery of such space following May 1, 1992, Tenant shall be entitled to
     one day delay of the respective Annual Fixed Rent Commencement Dates with
     respect to such space, computed in the manner provided in Section 1 above,
     subject to the provisions of Section 3 below. In the event that the Last
     Space is not delivered to Tenant by June 15, 1992, Tenant shall have the
     right, at any time prior to the delivery of such space to Tenant, to
     terminate this Lease upon delivery of written notice of such termination to
     Landlord. In the event that Tenant exercises such right to terminate,
     Tenant shall be entitled to damages from Landlord equal to the
     nonrecoverable architectural, engineering and other professional fees and
     construction costs (including costs for committed materials less any
     recovery) which Tenant has incurred (and/or committed to) up to the date of
     such termination with respect to its tenancy in the Building pursuant to
     this Lease, which damages Landlord agrees to pay Tenant within five (5)
     days after demand. Tenant's determination of the proper amount of damages
     shall be subject to Dispute Resolution.

3.   If Landlord anticipates that it will be unable to deliver the Last Space on
     or before June 15, 1992, Landlord may give written notice to Tenant which
     notice shall include a date beyond June 15, 1992 (the "Delayed Date") upon
     which Landlord believes it can deliver Tenant the Last Space. Tenant shall,
     within ten (10) business days thereafter, give written notice to Landlord
     electing either to (1) accept the Delayed Date as the new Scheduled
     Delivery Date with respect to the Last Space; or (2) terminate this Lease.
     For each day of delay in delivery of such space following May 1, 1992,
     Tenant shall be entitled to one day delay of the respective Annual Fixed
     Rent Commencement Dates with respect to such space, computed in the manner
     provided in Section 1 above. In the event that Tenant exercises such option
     to terminate, Tenant shall be entitled to damages from Landlord as provided
     in Section 2 above. In the event that Tenant shall not elect to terminate
     this Lease, as aforesaid, and the Last Space is not delivered on the
     Delayed Date then Tenant shall have the further right, exercised at any
     time prior to the delivery of the Last Space to Tenant, to terminate this
     Lease upon delivery of written notice of such termination to Landlord. In
     the event that Tenant so exercises such option to terminate, Tenant shall
     be entitled to damages from Landlord as provided in Section 2 above.


                                     A-1(1)
<PAGE>
4.   At all times Landlord will act in good faith in its attempts to deliver
     space on the Scheduled Delivery Dates as such delivery Dates may be delayed
     pursuant to this Addendum. In exercising Tenant's rights to terminate this
     Lease as provided in this Exhibit A-l, Tenant will act in good faith upon
     the reasonable determination (but in its sole discretion) that it can have
     useful occupancy of alternative space sooner than the delayed space can be
     provided by Landlord or that Tenant has lost faith in Landlord's ability to
     meet future Scheduled Delivery Dates for all or any portion of the delayed
     space.

5.   In the event that (a) the Delayed Date proposed in Landlord's notice is
     beyond December 31, 1992; or (b) Landlord indicates in such notice that the
     Last Space is not deliverable; or (c) the Last Space is not delivered prior
     to December 31, 1992, and Tenant has not elected to terminate this Lease
     pursuant to Section 2 or 3 hereof, Tenant shall have the right to exclude
     the Last Space from this Lease and preserve its lease rights in the
     remaining portion of the original premises excluding the Last Space (the
     "Reduced Original Premises") by election set forth in a written notice to
     Landlord by the earlier of twenty (20) days following such Landlord's
     notice, or January 20, 1993, in which event this Lease shall be amended to
     reflect the following terms:

     A.   The Annual Fixed Rent with respect to the Reduced Original Premises
          for:

                December 31, 1992 shall be reimbursed by Landlord to Tenant on
                demand); and

          (ii)  Lease Years 6-10 shall be [Illegible]/rentable square foot.

     B.   The Initial Term shall be ten (10) years commencing on the Annual
          Fixed Rent Commencement Date of the space containing 25,511 sf.

     C.   Tenant's expansion rights with respect to (i) the Last Space shall
          reflect that the Annual Fixed Rent for such space during the Lease
          Years 1-5 shall be [Illegible]/rentable square foot and for Lease
          Years 6-10 shall be [Illegible]/rentable square foot, and (ii) the
          other space in the Building which is the subject of Tenant's election
          to expand within Lease Years 1-5 shall reflect the Annual Fixed Rent
          for such space during Lease Years 1-5 to be [Illegible]/rentable
          square foot and for Lease Years 6-10 to be [Illegible]/rentable square
          foot.

6.   If Tenant shall elect to exclude the Last Space from this Lease, in
     accordance with this Exhibit A-1, Landlord shall use good faith efforts
     (without any obligation to expend any

                                     A-1(2)

     monies) to locate other space in the Building or adjacent buildings in

                              RULES AND REGULATIONS

DEFINITIONS

Wherever in these Rules and Regulations the word "Tenant" is used, it shall be
taken to apply to and include Tenant and his agents, employees, invitees,
licensees, contractors, any subtenants and is to be deemed of such number and
gender as the circumstances require. The word "Premises" is to be taken to
include the space covered by the Lease. The word "Landlord" shall be taken to
include the employees and agents of Landlord. Other capitalized terms used but
not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Lease.

GENERAL USE OF BUILDING

     A.   Space for admitting natural light into any public area of the Building
          shall not be covered or obstructed by Tenant except in a manner
          approved by Landlord. Tenant shall, in any windows admitting natural
          light into the Premises, use building standard blinds as the outermost
          window treatment.

     B.   Toilets, showers and other like apparatus shall be used only for the
          purpose for which they were constructed. Any and all damage from
          misuse shall be borne by Tenant. These rooms should be locked at all
          times.

     C.   Landlord reserves the right to determine the number of letters allowed
          Lessee on any directory it maintains. Tenant is entitled, in any
          event, to a single listing on the Building directory board now
          maintained by Landlord which contains only a single listing by each
          tenant. Tenant's listing may, without limitation, state: Ariad
          Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

     D.   No sign, advertisement, notice or the like, shall be used in the
          common areas of the Building or Property by Tenant (other than at its
          office and then only as approved by Landlord in accordance with
          building standards). If Tenant violates the foregoing, Landlord may
          remove the violation without liability and may charge all costs and
          expenses incurred in so doing to Tenant.

     E.   Tenant shall not throw or permit to be thrown anything out of windows
          or doors or down passages or elsewhere in common areas of the Building
          or Property, or bring or keep any pets therein.

     F.   Unless expressly permitted by Landlord in writing:

          (1)   No additional locks or similar devices shall be attached to any
                door and no keys other than those provided by Landlord shall be
                made for any door. Upon termination of this lease or of Tenant's
                possession, the Lessee shall surrender all keys to the Premises
                and shall explain to Landlord all combination locks on safes,
                cabinets and vaults remaining in the Premises.

                                      E(1)
<PAGE>

          (2)   All doors to the Premises leading to common areas of the
                Building are to be kept closed at all times except when in
                actual use for entrance to or exit from such Premises. Tenant
                shall be responsible for the locking of doors and the closing of
                any transoms and windows in and to the Premises. Any damage or
                loss resulting from violation of this rule shall be paid for by
                the Tenant.

          (3)   Except as otherwise provided in the Lease, Tenant shall not
                install or operate any steam or internal combustion engine,
                boiler, machinery in or about the Premises, or carry on any
                mechanical business therein. All equipment of any electrical or
                mechanical nature shall be placed in settings which absorb and
                prevent any unreasonable vibration, noise or annoyance.

     G    Landlord shall designate the time when and the method whereby freight,
          furniture, safes and other like articles may be brought into, moved or
          removed from the Building or Premises, and to designate the location
          for temporary disposition of such items.

     H.   In order to insure proper use and care of the Premises Tenant shall
          not allow anyone other than Landlord's employees or contractors to
          clean the Premises without Landlord's permission, not to be
          unreasonably withheld or delayed.

     I.   The Premises shall not be defaced in any way. No changes in electrical
          fixtures or other appurtenances of said Premises shall be made without
          approval by Landlord in the manner provided in the Lease.

     J.   For the general welfare of all tenants and the security of the
          Building, Landlord may require all persons entering and/or leaving the
          Building on weekends and holidays and between the hours of 6:00 PM -
          and 8:00 AM to register with the Building attendant or custodian by
          signing his name and writing his destination in the Building, and the
          time of entry and actual or anticipated departure, or other procedures
          deemed necessary by Lessor. Landlord may deny entry during such hours
          to any person who fails to provide satisfactory identification.

     K.   No pets, and no bicycles or vehicles of any kind, shall be brought
          into or kept in or about said Premises or the lobby or halls of the
          Building. Tenant shall not cause or permit any reasonably
          objectionable odors to be produced upon or emanate from said Premises.

     L.   Unless specifically authorized by Landlord, employees or agents of
          Landlord shall not perform for nor be asked by Tenant to perform work
          other than their regularly assigned duties.

     M.   Landlord shall have the right to prohibit any advertising by Tenant
          which, in Landlord's opinion tends to impair the reputation of the
          Building or its desirability as an office and R&D building and, upon
          written notice from

                                      E(2)
<PAGE>

          Landlord, Tenant shall promptly discontinue such advertising. Any
          determination made under this Paragraph M shall be subject to Dispute
          Resolution.

     N.   Canvassing, soliciting and peddling in the Building is prohibited and
          Tenant shall cooperate to prevent the same from occurring.

     O.   Except to the extent inconsistent with the rights of Tenant provided
          in the Lease, all parking, Building operation, or construction rules
          and regulations which may be established from time to time by Landlord
          on a uniform basis shall be obeyed.

     P.   Tenant shall not place a load on any floor of said Premises exceeding
          one hundred (100) pounds per square foot (two hundred fifty pounds per
          square foot on the first floor). Landlord reserves the right to
          reasonably prescribe the weight and position of all safes and heavy
          equipment.

     Q.   Tenant shall not instill or use any air conditioning or heating device
          or system other than those approved by Landlord as provided in the
          Lease.

     R.   Landlord shall have the right to make such other and further
          reasonable rules and regulations as in the judgment of Landlord, may
          from time to time be needful for the safety, appearance, care and
          cleanliness of the Building and for the preservation of good order
          therein not inconsistent with the rights of Tenant under the Lease.
          Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for any violation of rules
          and regulations by other tenants, except that Landlord shall enforce
          the same to the extent such violation causes material adverse impact
          to Tenant's use of the Premises as provided in the Lease.

     S.   The access road and loading areas, parking areas, sidewalks,
          entrances, lobbies, common area halls, walkways, elevators, stairways
          and other common area provided by Landlord shall not be obstructed by
          Tenant, or used by him for any other purpose than for ingress and
          egress.

     T.   In order to insure proper use and care of the Premises, except as
          provided in the Lease, Tenant shall not manufacture any commodity, or
          prepare or dispense for sales any foods or beverages, tobacco,
          flowers, or other commodities or articles without the written consent
          of Landlord.

     U.   In order to insure use and care of the Premises Tenant shall not enter
          any janitors' closets, mechanical or electrical areas, telephone
          closets, loading areas, roof or Building storage areas without the
          consent of Landlord as provided in the Lease.

     V.   In order to insure proper use and care of the Premises Tenant shall

                            FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE
                     WITH TENANT'S AND LANDLORD'S ESTOPPELS


     This First Amendment to Lease With Tenants and Landlord's Estoppels ("First
Amendment") is entered into on this 12th day of May, 1994, effective as of
September 1, 1992, by and among Forest City Cambridge, Inc. ("Landlord"), an
Ohio corporation, ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("AP"), a Delaware corporation and
the original tenant under the Lease referred to hereinafter, and ARIAD
Corporation ("AC"), a Delaware corporation and the current tenant under the
Lease referred to hereinafter (AP and AC sometimes hereinafter referred to
collectively as "Tenant").

                                   WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, Landlord and AP have heretofore entered into a lease, dated as of
January 8, 1992 (the "Original Lease") for certain premises at 26 Landsdowne
Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts, more particularly defined therein;

     WHEREAS, AP assigned, and AC assumed, the Original Lease by Assignment and
Assumption of Lease dated October 19, 1992;

     WHEREAS, the Original Lease contemplated that an amendment thereto would be
executed to establish the correct square footage of the premises demised
thereunder once it had been determined how much space on the first floor would
be included therein;

     WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant have agreed to add certain additional space to
the premises demised under the Original Lease and modify the Original Lease in a
number of other respects all as more particularly hereinafter provided; and

     WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant each desire certification from the other as to
the status of the Lease as of the date of the First Amendment.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows.

     1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. All capitalized terms not otherwise modified or
defined herein shall have the same meanings as are ascribed to them in the
Original Lease.

     2. FIRST FLOOR PREMISES; SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE ORIGINAL PREMISES.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in Section 2.8 and Exhibit G
of the Original Lease, the First Floor Premises shall constitute neither Option
"A" nor Option "B" described therein. The First Floor Premises shall instead
consist of 3,221 rentable square feet shown as "Suite 140" on the floor plans
attached as Annex A to this First Amendment. Consequently, the rentable square
footage of the Original Premises is established to be 43,617 rentable square
feet.

     3. ENLARGEMENT OF THE PREMISES. Certain additional space is added to the
Premises as of the respective Commencement Dates therefor (as hereinbelow
provided) and the definition of

<PAGE>

"Premises" under the Lease shall additionally include all of such space. This
additional space (the "Additional Premises") is described as follows:

          (a) 2,378 rentable square feet on the first floor, as shown as "Suite
150A" on Annex A;

          (b) 946 rentable square feet on the first floor, as shown as "Suite
150B" on Annex A;

          (c) 206 rentable square feet on the first floor, as shown as "Suite
150C" on Annex A;

          (d) 174 rentable square feet on the first floor as shown as "Suite
150D" on Annex A;

          (e) 42 rentable square feet on the third floor, as shown as "Suite
300A" on Annex A;

          (f) 42 rentable square feet on the fourth floor, as shown as "Suite
400A" on Annex A; and

          (g) 1,398 rentable square feet on the roof as shown as "East Wing
Penthouse" and "Steam Generator Penthouse" on the Roof Plan attached as Annex B
to this First Amendment.

     4. ESTABLISHMENT OF THE RENTABLE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE BUILDING AND THE
PREMISES. With the addition of the Additional Premises to the Premises, the
Premises now contain 48,803 rentable square feet. With the addition of the space
referred to in clauses (d) and (g) to the rentable square footage of the
Building (such space did not formerly constitute rentable area), the Total
Rentable Floor Area of the Building shall be increased, as of the date hereof,
from 98,472 to 100,044 rentable square feet. Consequently, Exhibit G to the
Original Lease is hereby amended by substituting Annex A attached hereto for
said Exhibit G and Exhibit K, Part 1 of 2 of the Original Lease is hereby
amended by substituting Annex C attached hereto for said Exhibit K, Part 1 of 2.

     5. ESTABLISHMENT OF TENANT'S ALLOCABLE SHARE OF TAX EXPENSES AND OPERATING
EXPENSES. For purposes of calculating "Tenant's Tax Expenses Allocable to the
Premises" under Section 3.2(b) of the Lease and "Tenant's Operating Expenses
Allocable to the Property" under Section 3.3(a) of the Lease, the Rentable Floor
Area of that portion of the Additional Premises located on the roof (the "Roof
Premises") and the space referred to in Section 3(e) and 3(f) shall be excluded
from both the Rentable Floor Area of the Premises and the Total Rentable Floor
Area of the Building. Consequently, as of the date hereof, Tenant's allocable
share shall be 47,321/98,562.

     6. COMMENCEMENT DATES AND ANNUAL FIXED RENT COMMENCEMENT DATES. The entire
Premises has heretofore been delivered by Landlord to Tenant. The Commencement
Dates and Annual Fixed Rent Commencement Dates with respect to each portion of
the Original Premises were established in accordance with Section 2.5, Exhibit A
and Exhibit A-1 of the Original

                                        2
<PAGE>

Lease and the Commencement Dates and Annual Fixed Rent Commencement Dates for
each of the portion of the Additional Premises is hereby established by
reference to Annex D to this First Amendment. Annex D is a table containing the
Commencement Date and Annual Fixed Rent Commencement Date which has been
established for each portion of the Original Premises and which is hereby
established for each portion of the Additional Premises.

     7. ANNUAL FIXED RENT WITH RESPECT TO THE ROOF PREMISES. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary provided in Section 3.1 or Exhibit A of the Original
Lease, the Annual Fixed Rent payable with respect to the Roof Premises,
commencing as of the Annual Fixed Rent Commencement Date therefor, shall be at
the following rate:

          Lease Years 1-5         [Illegible]
                                _______________/rentable square foot

          Lease Years 6-10        [Illegible]
                                _______________/rentable square foot

     8. INITIAL TERM. It is agreed by Landlord and Tenant that the Annual Fixed
Rent Commencement Date of August 9, 1992 with respect to the 3,374 rentable
square feet as the second floor, identified as Suite 295 on Annex A, constitutes
the beginning of the Initial Term as contemplated under Exhibit A to the
Original Lease. Notwithstanding anything in said Exhibit A to the contrary,
however, Landlord and Tenant agree that the expiration of the Initial Term shall
occur on July 31, 2002 (unless the same shall earlier terminate or expire
pursuant to the terms of the Lease).

     9. PARKING PRIVILEGES. Notwithstanding anything provided in Exhibit A to
the Original Lease to the contrary, the calculation of parking spaces to which
Tenant is entitled thereunder shall not include the Additional Premises.
However, in consideration of the leasing of the Additional Premises, Tenant
shall be entitled to five (5) additional parking spaces (the "Additional Parking
Spaces") upon all of the terms and conditions as pertain to the parking spaces
calculated under said Exhibit A to which Tenant is entitled.

     10. LANDLORD'S ADDRESS FOR NOTICES. Exhibit A shall be modified to amend
the address to which copies of all notices addressed to Landlord should be sent

Amendment, or the application thereof to any person or circumstances, shall to
any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the First Amendment, or
the application of such term to persons or circumstances other than those as to

standards for the Building:

1. The make-up air equipment and controls for Tenant's laboratory spaces are not
   effectively supplying sufficient air to the laboratories to balance the air

   additional make-up air equipment installed if necessary, in order to bring
   the supply and exhaust systems into balance.

2. A glass drain installed by Tenant is blocking service access to a heat pump
   in Suite 470. This drain should be permanently relocated, or in the
   alternative, Tenant shall provide assurances that it will immediately
   interrupt its use of the drain and remove sections of the pipe as necessary
   whenever its location precludes necessary repairs or maintenance to the heat
   pump.

                         SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND SECOND
                               AMENDMENT TO LEASE

     This Settlement Agreement and Second Amendment to Lease (this "Agreement")
is entered into on this 12th day of May, 1994, effective as of October 1,
1993, by and among Forest City Cambridge, Inc. ("Landlord"), an Ohio
corporation, ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("AP"), a Delaware corporation and the
original tenant under the Lease referred to hereinafter, and ARIAD Corporation
("AC"), a Delaware corporation and the current tenant under the Lease referred
to hereinafter (AP and AC sometimes hereinafter referred to collectively as
"Tenant").

                                   WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, Landlord and AP have heretofore entered into a lease, dated as of
January 8, 1992 and amended by that certain First Amendment to Lease with
Tenant's and Landlord's Estoppels (the "First Amendment") dated as of September
1, 1992 (said lease, as so amended and as further amended hereby, is herein
referred to as the "Lease") for certain premises more particularly defined
therein (the "Premises");

     WHEREAS, AP assigned, and AC assumed, the Lease by Assignment and
Assumption of Lease dated October 19, 1992;

     WHEREAS, in connection with the alterations constructed by Tenant to
prepare the Premises for its initial occupancy ("Tenant's Initial Alterations")
Tenant has (i) installed certain equipment and made certain alterations to the
roof of the Building as contemplated by Section 2.2 of the Lease and (ii)
constructed certain penthouses which are shown on the Roof Plan attached to the
First Amendment as Annex B and installed certain equipment therein (all of which
alterations are herein collectively referred to as the "Roof Installations");

     [Illegible]

     WHEREAS, in order to accommodate the Roof Installations, a "three beam
platform" was constructed by Landlord to transfer the penthouse and equipment
load to the exterior columns of the Building where there was excess load bearing
capacity (the "Load Transfer Work");

     WHEREAS, each of the parties have incurred certain costs and expenses which
would otherwise not have been required to be incurred by them but for the fact
that the Corrective Work and Load Transfer Work was required to be performed due
to then existing structural conditions of the Building (the "Existing
Conditions");

     WHEREAS, a portion of the Rent, Operating Costs, Real Estate Taxes, and
other obligations pertaining to the additional space that was added to the
Premises in accordance with the First Amendment and occupied by Tenant since
September 1, 1992 has neither been billed by Landlord to Tenant nor paid by
Tenant to Landlord;

     WHEREAS, the Corrective Work and Load Transfer Work has now been completed
and Landlord and Tenant desire to memorialize their agreement with respect to
(i) Tenant's right to be reimbursed for certain costs and expenses associated
with the Existing Conditions which were

<PAGE>

incurred by Tenant and (ii) the parties respective responsibilities in the event
repairs are hereafter required to be made to the Building and the Roof
Installations;

     WHEREAS, Tenant removed certain energy efficient lighting fixtures in
connection with Tenant's Initial Alterations, and Landlord and Tenant desire to
memorialize their agreement with respect thereto; and

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:

1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall
have the same meanings as are ascribed to them in the Lease.

2. RESPONSIBILITY FOR EXPENSES; REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATIONS; RENT CREDIT. Except
as hereinafter set forth, each of the costs and expenses which have heretofore
been incurred by Landlord and Tenant, respectively, in connection with Tenant's
Initial Alterations, the Corrective Work, the Load Transfer Work or otherwise in
connection with the Existing Conditions, shall be the responsibility of the
party which has heretofore incurred such expense.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord has agreed to reimburse Tenant
[Illegible] incurred by Tenant in connection with the Existing Conditions and
certain increased costs of Tenant's Initial Alterations including, without
limitation, the digging of test pits, additional architectural and engineering
services and additional general conditions costs in connection with Tenant's
Initial Alterations. The reimbursement by Landlord to Tenant of this [Illegible]
shall be effectuated as a lump sum payment to be paid promptly by Landlord to
Tenant following the execution of this Agreement. Such payment shall constitute
reimbursement in full of Landlord's obligation to Tenant under this paragraph
and Tenant shall not be entitled to any further rent credit in connection
herewith.

3. RESPONSIBILITY FOR ADDITIONAL EXPENSES. Notwithstanding the first paragraph
of Section 2 hereof:

     (a) Landlord has agreed to reimburse Tenant for the following costs and
expenses:

          (i) [Illegible] incurred by Tenant for the account of Landlord for
materials and labor in connection with the performance of certain components of
Load Transfer Work as more fully described in the letter from Landlord to John
F. Kennedy of Kennedy & Rossi, dated July 30, 1992;

          (ii) [Illegible] incurred by Tenant for the pouring of a concrete slab
on August 15, 1992;

          (iii) [Illegible] incurred by Tenant for the pouring of a concrete
slab on August 29, 1992; and

     (b) Tenant has agreed to reimburse Landlord for the following costs and
expenses:

                                        2
<PAGE>

     (i) [Illegible] incurred by Landlord to Consentini Associates for review
of matters associated with Tenant's Initial Alterations;

     (ii) [Illegible] incurred by Landlord to Lim Consultants, Inc. for review
of matters associated with Tenant's Initial Alterations; and

     (iii) [Illegible] incurred by Landlord to Kenetech (as hereinafter defined)
referred to in Kenetech's letter to Landlord dated July 2, 1992.

   A payment of [Illegible] which represents the net reimbursement obligations
of the respective parties pursuant to this Section 3 shall be paid promptly by
Landlord to Tenant following the execution of this Agreement, or, at Tenant's
option, credited against the installments of annual fixed rent next coming due
under the Lease.

4. RESPONSIBILITY FOR PAST DUE RENT. Landlord and Tenant have also agreed that
the amount due through March 31, 1994 for Rent, Operating Expenses, Real Estate
Taxes and other charges in connection with the spaces described in Sections
3(d), 3(e), 3(f) and 3(g) of the First Amendment is [Illegible]. This sum shall
be paid promptly by Tenant to Landlord following the execution of this
Agreement.

5. BALLASTS AND LIGHTING FIXTURES. In connection with Tenant's demolition
performed in connection with Tenant's Initial Alterations, certain energy
efficient ballasts and lighting fixtures furnished to Landlord by Kenetech
Energy Management, Inc. ("Kenetech") were replaced by Tenant with ballasts and
lighting fixtures which do not fulfill Kenetech's requirements and certain of
the Kenetech ballasts and light fixtures were not returned to Landlord by
Tenant. Landlord hereby agrees to relieve Tenant from any responsibility that
Tenant would otherwise have had to reimburse Landlord for (i) the termination
fee of [Illegible] paid by Landlord to Kenetech for discontinuing the use of
certain energy efficient ballasts and lighting fixtures and (ii) the cost to
Landlord of replacing such ballasts and light fixtures, all as described in said
Kenetech letter dated July 2, 1992.

   In addition to the reimbursement described in Section 3(b)(iii) Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord for any additional loss, cost, liability or expense incurred
by Landlord to Kenetech or Com/Energy in connection with (a) Tenant's removal of
any other Kenetech ballasts and/or lighting fixtures from the Original and
Additional Premises which are not specifically the subject matter of said
Kenetech's letter dated July 2, 1992, or (b) on account of the projected energy
savings not realized because of the removal of the energy efficient ballasts and
lighting fixtures from the Original and Additional Premises; provided however
that it is agreed and understood that the maximum additional exposure to Tenant
under this paragraph shall not exceed [Illegible]. Landlord represents and
warrants that as of the date hereof, neither Kenetech nor Com/Energy has
asserted a claim, nor has Landlord incurred any such additional loss, cost,
liability or expense.

6. TENANT'S REPRESENTATION; RESPONSIBILITIES AND INDEMNITY REGARDING ROOF
INSTALLATIONS. Tenant represents and warrants (hereinafter "Tenant's
Representation") that the Tenant's Initial Alterations substantially conform to
the equipment weights and penthouse construction shown on the Foley & Buhl
drawing S-1.2, Progress Print dated 24 April 1992,

                                        3
<PAGE>

Revised 25 September 1992, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A, (the
"Plan") and that no further load has been imposed on the roof thereby.

     Tenant shall maintain and repair the Roof Installations and other Tenant
installations on the exterior facade of the Building (the "Exterior
Installations"), comply with all requirements of law with respect thereto and
otherwise fulfill all of the obligations with respect thereto which Tenant is
required to observe by the Lease with respect to other portions of the Premises.
Included in Tenant's repair obligations shall be the obligation to maintain the
physical appearance of the Roof and Exterior Installations. In the event that
Landlord determines that the Roof or Exterior Installations require painting,
damage repair or removal of residue and Tenant fails to perform such work
following reasonable notice from Landlord that such work is required, then
Landlord may perform such corrective work and Tenant shall promptly reimburse
Landlord for Landlord's reasonable costs and expenses thereof. Any disagreement
with respect to such maintenance or repair obligation shall be subject to the
Dispute Resolution provisions of Section 11 of the Lease.

     Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and
all loss, cost, liability, damage or expense (a) in the event that a repair,
alteration or replacement which is required to be made to the Building is caused
or exacerbated, in whole or in part, by virtue of a material inaccuracy in
Tenant's Representation; and (b) which any repair, maintenance or use of the
Roof Installations causes to the Building, its systems or any property therein,
it being understood that Landlord shall have no claim against Tenant for loss,
liability, damage or expense arising from or by virtue of the invalidation in
whole or in part of Landlord's roof warranty. Landlord represents and warrants
that as of the date hereof, it knows of no repair, alteration or replacement
which is required to be made to the building as a result of any repair, use or
maintenance of the Roof Installations.

7. LANDLORD'S RESPONSIBILITY. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that any repair,
alteration or replacement to the Building which is required to be performed (i)
due to the failure of the Corrective Work to enable the Building to have
sufficient load bearing capacity to accommodate the Roof Installations and any
further installations permitted to Tenant as provided for in Section 8 hereof or
(ii) due to the failure of the girders installed in connection with the Load
Transfer Work to adequately transfer the load imposed by the Roof Installations,
as designed so to do by Landlord's structural engineer, shall be Landlord's
responsibility at its sole cost and expense.

8. TENANT'S USE OF THE BUILDING'S ROOF. Tenant's use of the Building's roof
shall be limited to using, maintaining and repairing the Roof Installations and
complying with Tenant's obligations with respect thereto. Tenant shall have the
right to add up to 20 psf for mechanical piping suspended from penthouse
ceilings and up to 10 psf live load distributed in a reasonable uniform manner
on the "East Wing Penthouse" floor. Tenant's rights to place any additional
equipment on the Building's roof (whether or not in the Roof Premises) or make
any alterations thereto shall be subject to Landlord's approval rights contained
in the Lease. Landlord shall not hereafter be deemed unreasonable in withholding
such approval right if Landlord determines in good faith that the existing
structural capacity of the Building is insufficient to support the additional
load of such equipment or alterations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord
acknowledges that it shall approve the proposed installation by Tenant of
several additional

                                        4
<PAGE>

exhaust fans on the Cross Street and Purrington Street areas of the roof,
subject to Tenant's submittal to Landlord of engineering data indicating that
the roof is capable of supporting the additional load and to Tenant's assurance
that the installation will comply with other generally accepted good engineering
and workmanship practices.

9. AMOUNTS DUE. Except for the monies due to Landlord and/or Tenant pursuant to
the Sections 2, 3 and 4 hereof, each of Landlord and Tenant acknowledges and
agrees that neither party hereto is obligated to the other for any amounts due
and payable through the effective date hereof on account of services performed,
work done or expenses to be reimbursed pursuant to all provisions of the Lease
except Section 6.8.

10. RATIFICATION. The Lease is in full force and effect and the Landlord and
Tenant ratify and confirm the Lease, and the assignment thereof by AP and
assumption thereof by AC mentioned herein above.

11. INTERPRETATION AND PARTIAL INVALIDITY. If any term of this Settlement
Agreement and Second Amendment to Lease, or the application thereof to any
person or circumstances, shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the
remainder hereof, or the application of such term to persons or circumstances
other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be
affected thereby, and each term hereof shall be valid and enforceable to the
fullest extent permitted by law. The titles of the Sections are for convenience
only and not to be considered in construing this Settlement Agreement and Second
Amendment to Lease. This Settlement Agreement and Second Amendment to Lease, and
the Schedules attached hereto, contain all of the agreements of the parties with

                            THIRD AMENDMENT TO LEASE

     THIS THIRD AMENDMENT TO LEASE ("Third Amendment") is entered into this 1st
day of June 1994 and among Forest City Cambridge, Inc. ("Landlord"), an Ohio
corporation, ARIAD Corporation ("Tenant"), a Delaware corporation and ARIAD
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Pharmaceuticals"), a Delaware corporation.

                                   WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, Landlord and Pharmaceuticals have heretofore entered into a lease,
dated as of January 8, 1992, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Lease
with Tenant's and Landlord's Estoppels (the "First Amendment") and by that
certain Settlement Agreement and Second Amendment to Lease (the "Second
Amendment") in each case entered into among Pharmaceuticals, Tenant and Landlord
and dated May 12, 1994 (said lease, as so amended, is herein referred to as the
"Lease") for certain premises at 26 Landsdowne Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts,
more particularly defined therein (the "Premises");

     WHEREAS, Tenant is the successor to the interest of Pharmaceuticals as
tenant under the Lease by virtue of an Assignment and Assumption of Lease, dated
October 19, 1992;

     WHEREAS, contemporaneously with the execution of this Third Amendment,
Tenant is entering into that certain Collateral and Conditional Assignment of
Lease and Leasehold Mortgage (the "Collateral and Conditional Assignment") with
BayBank Boston, N.A., and Landlord and BayBank Boston, N.A. are entering into
that certain Consent and Agreement with respect to Collateral and Conditional
Assignment of Lease and Leasehold Mortgage (the "Consent" and, together with the
Collateral and Conditional Assignment, the "Tenant Financing Documents"); and

     WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant have agreed to add certain additional space to
the Premises demised under the Lease and modify the Lease in a number of other
respects all as more particularly hereinafter provided.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:

     1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein
shall have the same meanings as are ascribed to them in the Lease.

     2. EXPANSION OF THE PREMISES. Effective as of April 1, 1994 (the "Effective
Date"), certain additional space is added to the Premises and, for all purposes
under the Lease, the definition of "Premises" shall additionally include all of
such space. This additional space (the "Additional Premises") is described as
follows:

<PAGE>


   (a) 3,866 rentable square feet on the first floor, as shown as "Suite 175" on
       Annex A; and

   (b) 20,249 rentable square feet comprising the entire rentable area of the
       third floor, as shown on Annex A.

     Without limitation of the foregoing, the Annual Fixed Rent for the
remainder of the Initial Term shall be adjusted by multiplying the rentable
square footage of the Additional Premises by the rental rates set forth in
Exhibit A to the Lease for such remaining portion of the Initial Term. Tenant
acknowledges that the Additional Premises shall become part of the Premises in
their "as is", "where is" condition and Tenant shall be responsible for making
any leasehold improvements which Tenant desires to be made thereto, subject to
all of the terms and conditions of the Lease applicable thereto. Nothing in the
preceding sentence is intended to derogate Landlord's obligations under the
Lease which otherwise apply to the Additional Premises, as they do to the
balance of the Premises, including, without limitation, Section 5.1 to repair
and maintain the Building and Common Areas, and under Section 12.20 to remedy
the existence of PCB's or asbestos. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that all
fume hoods and environmental rooms (hot, cold, etc.) in the Additional Premises
shall be deemed "Optional Removable Alterations."

     3. COMMENCEMENT DATE, BASE RATE COMMENCEMENT DATE AND ADDITIONAL RENT
COMMENCEMENT DATE. For all purposes under the Lease, the Effective Date shall be
the Commencement Date, the Base Rent Commencement Date and the Additional Rent
Commencement Date with respect to the Additional Premises.

     4. PARKING PRIVILEGES. By virtue of the application of Section 2.4 and
Exhibit A of the Lease, the addition of the Additional Premises to the Premises
shall result in the allocation to Tenant of forty-eight (48) additional parking
spaces. Tenant acknowledges that, as of the date hereof, the market rate for
each parking space allocated to Tenant under said Section 2.4 and Exhibit A is
currently $85.00 per space per month.

     6. SECURITY DEPOSIT. By virtue of the application of Section 12.11 of the
Lease, Tenant is depositing with Landlord, contemporaneously herewith, a
replacement letter of credit which fulfills Tenant's obligations thereunder to
increase its security deposit by [Illegible].

     7. TENANT'S ADDRESS FOR NOTICES. Exhibit A to the Lease shall be modified
to amend the name of the person to whom notices should be sent as follows:


                                ARIAD Corporation
                                26 Landsdowne Street
                                Cambridge, MA 02139-4237
                                ATTENTION: Mr. Jay R. LaMarche
                                           Treasurer

                                        2
<PAGE>

     8. AIR-COOLED CHILLER. (a) Subject to Tenant's obligation to comply with
all of the terms and conditions of the Lease applicable thereto, Landlord hereby
consents to Tenant's construction of a concrete pad in the location depicted on
Annex B (the "Pad Location") and the installation thereon of an air-cooled
chiller which has been properly enclosed consistent with sound engineering
practices (collectively, the "Air-cooled Chiller"). Tenant shall be responsible
for repair and maintenance, and have responsibility for the Air-cooled Chiller,
on the same terms and conditions as apply to Exterior Installations (as defined
in the aforementioned Settlement Agreement and Second Amendment to Lease) and
Tenant shall pay any costs associated with the operation of the Aft-cooled
Chiller.

     (b) Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, relocate and/or reconstruct
any existing structures or equipment (e.g. trash compactor, bicycle racks and
curbing) which must be relocated and/or reconstructed in order to accommodate
the placement of the concrete pad in the Pad Location and the installation
thereon of the Air-cooled Chiller. Tenant shall furnish plans and specifications
for such work to Landlord for its review, and Tenant must obtain Landlord's
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, prior to the commencement of
such work.

     (c) Tenant shall, in lieu of paying additional Annual Fixed Rent with
respect to the Pad Location, pay as Additional Rent for the remainder of the
Term a monthly amount equal to the product of (x) one-half (1/2) of the number
of parking spaces which had to be eliminated in order to accommodate the
placement of a concrete slab in the Pad Location and the installation of the
Air-cooled Chiller thereon, and (y) the market rent for parking spaces from time
to time as established under Section 2.4 and Exhibit A of the Lease. If the Pad
Location shall be relocated as contemplated in clause (d) below, the number of
parking spaces affected shall be established by Landlord subject to Tenant's
reasonable approval and, if applicable, the Additional Rent payable under this
clause (c) shall be adjusted accordingly. Such Additional Rent shall be payable
on the same terms and conditions as if it constituted parking charges under
Section 2.4 of the Lease.

     (d) If future construction in or about the Building makes it necessary or
desirable, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, to relocate the Pad Location, and
therefore, the concrete pad and Air-cooled Chiller, then provided that Landlord
selects a new Pad Location which will not have a materially adverse effect upon
the operation of the Air-cooled Chiller or the delivery of cooled air to the
Premises, Landlord may relocate the same, upon not less than fifteen (15) days'
written notice and at Landlord's sole cost and expense, and shall use reasonable
efforts to minimize any disruption in the operation of the Air-cooled Chiller in
connection therewith, which reasonable efforts shall include, at Tenant's
request, "overtime" work as necessary to minimize any material disruption in the
operation of the Air-cooled Chiller.

     9. SLAB DEPRESSION AND ELECTRICAL UPGRADE. Subject to Tenant's obligation
to comply with all of the terms and conditions of the Lease applicable thereto,
Landlord hereby consents to (i) Tenant's depression of a portion of the floor
slab in Suite 175 as more particularly described in Annex C and (ii) Tenant's
upgrading of the electrical service available to the Building as more
particularly described in Annex D.

                                        3
<PAGE>

     10. TENANT'S ALLOWANCE. Following Landlord's review of, and satisfaction
with, the performance of the work described in Paragraph 9 hereof, and provided
that Tenant shall not be in default of any of its monetary obligations under the
Lease as hereby amended, nor in default beyond any applicable period of notice
and grace under any of its other obligations under the Lease, as hereby amended,
Landlord shall contribute $60,000.00 for such costs.

     11. EXPANSION OPTIONS. The following sentence is hereby added at the end of
the third paragraph of Section 2.7 of the Lease: "If the Offered Space shall be
leased by Landlord, but thereafter becomes once again available for lease, such
space shall constitute Offered Space subject to Tenant's rights under this
Section 2.7."

     12. ADDITIONAL DEFAULT. The passage of thirty (30) days after Landlord's
receipt of a "Termination Request Notice" from the "Assignee" without Landlord
having received a "Revocation Notice" (as such terms are defined in the
Consent), and without Landlord having become subject to a court order or other
compulsion of law staying Landlord from terminating the Lease, shall henceforth
constitute an Event of Default under Section 9.1 of the Lease, supplementing the
Events of Default described in clauses (a) and (b) thereof.

     13. CONFIRMATIONS. Landlord agrees upon request of Tenant or BayBank
Boston, N.A., that it will execute confirmations and ratifications in recordable
form that reflect Landlord's agreement as set forth in Section 11 of the
Consent.

     14. REIMBURSEMENT FOR LEGAL FEES. Tenant has agreed to reimburse $20,000.00
to Landlord, contemporaneously with the execution of this Third Amendment, on
account of legal fees incurred by Landlord in connection with the negotiation of
Tenant's Financing Documents.

     15. RATIFICATION. As modified by this Third Amendment, the Lease is in full
force and effect, Landlord and Tenant ratify and confirm the Lease as so
amended, and from and after the Effective Date, the Lease, as so amended, shall
constitute the "Lease" and all references to the Lease therein shall be deemed
to include this Third Amendment.

     16. INTERPRETATION AND PARTIAL INVALIDITY. If any term of this Third
Amendment or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall to any
extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder hereof or the application of
such term to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid
or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term hereof shall be
valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. The titles of the
sections are for convenience only and not to be considered in construing this
Third Amendment. This Third Amendment contains all of the agreements of the
parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and supersedes all prior
dealings between them with respect to such subject matter.

     17. AMOUNTS DUE. Landlord has not heretofore paid Tenant the $81,669.63 to
which Tenant is entitled pursuant to the Second Amendment. Tenant has not
heretofore paid Landlord certain rent to which Landlord is now entitled to be
paid under the Lease, as more particularly itemized by item 3 in Annex E hereto,
nor has Tenant heretofore made its reimbursement to Landlord under Section 14
hereof. Except for the monies due to Landlord and/or Tenant described in this
Section 17, each of Landlord and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that neither

                                        4
<PAGE>

party hereto is obligated to the other for any amounts due and payable through
the date hereof on account of services performed, work done or expenses to be
reimbursed pursuant to all provisions of the Lease. Contemporaneously with the
execution of this Third Amendment, Tenant hereby makes payment of the net amount
due to Landlord, as itemized on Annex E hereto, in fulfillment of Tenant's
obligations referred to in this Section 17.

     18. TENANT AND LANDLORD ESTOPPEL. Tenant now hereby agrees and certifies as
follows:

          (a) The Lease, is in full force and effect, constitutes the entire
agreement governing Tenant's occupancy of the Premises (including, without
limitation, the Additional Premises) and has not been further modified, altered
or amended;

          (b) Tenant has accepted and is in occupancy of the Premises and Tenant
is open for business and has commenced paying Annual Fixed Rent under the Lease;

          (c) To the best of Tenant's knowledge, as of the date hereof, Landlord
has performed all obligations required of Landlord under the Lease with respect
to improvements to the Building to prepare for Tenant's occupancy of the
Premises (including, without limitation, the Additional Premises);

          (d) To the best of Tenant's knowledge, as of the date hereof, Tenant
has no defenses, offsets or counterclaims against its obligations to pay Annual
Fixed Rent or any of its other monetary or non-monetary covenants and
obligations under the Lease; and

          (e) To the best of Tenant's knowledge, as of the date hereof, there
are no existing uncured defaults of Landlord under the Lease with respect to the
Premises (including, without limitation, the Additional Premises) other than as
set forth on Annex F hereto.

     Landlord now hereby agrees and certifies as follows:

          (a) The Lease is in full force and effect, constitutes the entire
agreement governing Tenant's occupancy of the Premises (including without
limitation, the Additional Premises) and has not been further modified, altered
or amended; and

          (b) To the best of Landlord's knowledge as of the date hereof, there
are no existing uncured defaults of Tenant under the Lease with respect to the
Premises (including, without limitation, the Additional Premises), and all of
Tenant's alterations in the portion of the Premises excluding the Additional
Premises have been approved by Landlord and are complete except as are set forth
in Annex F attached hereto.

                                    EXHIBIT M

The following improvements to the Premises are either incomplete, or require
adjustments or modifications in order to bring them into compliance with the
standards for the Building:

1. The make-up air equipment and controls for Tenant's laboratory spaces are not
   effectively supplying sufficient air to the laboratories to balance the air
   being exhausted through the hoods. The system must be rebalanced, and
   additional make-up air equipment installed if necessary, in order to bring
   the supply and exhaust systems into balance.

2. A glass drain installed by Tenant is blocking service access to a heat pump
   in Suite 470. This drain should be permanently relocated, or in the
   alternative, Tenant shall provide assurances that it will immediately
   interrupt its use of the drain and remove sections of the pipe as necessary
   whenever its location precludes necessary repairs or maintenance to the heat
   pump.

Executive Vice President
Chief Operating Officer

Cambridge, MA  02139

Dear Chip:

Pursuant to our recent discussions regarding space opportunities at 26
Landsdowne Street, I would like to affirm the following schedule of Ariad lease
commitments for additional space in the building:

1.)       Commencing upon August 1, 1998, for a period expiring October 14,
          1998, Ariad shall lease 4,311 rentable square feet of space located on
          the first floor of 26 Landsdowne Street (formerly Sensimetrics).
          Through the assignment of the existing tenant's lease, Ariad shall
          lease this space under the same terms and conditions including annual
          base rent. The space is being provided in "as is" condition.

          Ariad shall be required to notify Forest City no later than September
          15, 1998, of its intention to lease this first floor space for the
          period between October 15, 1998 and the expiration of the Ariad lease.
          Should Ariad opt to lease this additional space, it shall be under the
          same terms and conditions as Ariad's existing lease agreement,
          however, the annual base rent shall be [Illegible] per rentable square
          foot, NNN. The space will be provided in "as is" condition. if Ariad
          chooses not to lease this space, then Forest City shall be free to
          market this space to other tenants and Ariad shall be entitled to no
          other continuing rights to lease this space.

2.)       Pursuant to Section 2.7 of the Ariad lease agreement and Ariad's
          exercise of its option, commencing upon December 1, 1998, Mad shall
          lease 3,984 rentable square feet of additional space located on the
          fourth floor of 26 Landsdowne Street for a term which is co-terminus
          with the existing Ariad lease term. The annual base rent for this
          space shall be [Illegible] per rentable square foot, NNN. The fourth
          floor space is being provided in 'as is' condition.

If you are in agreement with the assumption of both of these tenant areas as
described, please acknowledge in the space below. Attached are three copies of
Assignment and Assumption of Lease for the Sensimetrics Corporation space at 26
Landsdowne Street as well as a copy of their lease. Please promptly execute
these agreements and then forward to my attention for Forest City's
counter-execution. In regards to the fourth floor space, I will provide a lease
amendment for this space, incorporating the first floor space if Ariad chooses,
after September 15th.

Finally, I understand that NemaPharm is no longer interested in terminating
their lease of 6,605 rentable square feet on the fourth floor prior to the
scheduled lease expiration date of July 31, 1999. Therefore, Forest City is not
in the position, at this time, to offer this space to Ariad under the provisions
of Section 2.7 of your lease as previously contemplated in my letter of July 9,
1998.

Should you have an questions in any of these matters, please do not hesitate to
contact my office.


Sincerely,

/s/ Michael B. Wilcox
