 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and of the mutual promises contained

 1. Upon the execution of this agreement by all Parties, the Franklin Parties and Sycamore will
execute a stipulation of dismissal of the Potash Hill Road Litigation, with prejudice and without costs, in the form of Exhibit A hereto, and will deliver the executed stipulation of dismissal to Fidelity National Title Insurance Company to be held

of 100–300 Potash Hill Road at a location reasonably agreed to by Franklin Equities, LLC, at no cost or expense to either of the Franklin Parties; provided that if the Town of Tyngsborough first provides a sewer extension or connection to Lot 2
and Lot 4 then the Parties shall have no obligation to provide any additional sewer extension or connection to those lots. If FE Potash 100, LLC or Franklin Equities, LLC chooses to connect to the sewer connection stub, the permitting, constructing,
and operating of such a connection(s) shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Franklin Parties Party whose property benefits from such connection. Any sewer assessment, betterment, or other fee or charge imposed on any Party by the Town of

products or in the issuance of any required permits or approvals. Any mechanics’ liens or similar encumbrances that arise from the work performed under this Section shall be promptly discharged by Princeton and MCH Potash, by bonding or
otherwise. Upon completion of this work, Princeton and/or MCH Potash, with the consent and cooperation of the Franklin Parties, shall use best, good faith efforts and take all reasonable and necessary steps to petition the Town of Tyngsborough to
accept the built portion of Potash Hill Road as a town public way in the manner set forth in the Tyngsborough General By-Laws and/or the Subdivision Rules and Regulations. Princeton and MCH Potash shall be jointly liable to the Franklin Parties to
guaranty the performance of such obligation notwithstanding any transfer of title.

the built portion of Potash Hill Road shall be allocated 75% to Princeton and MCH Potash (or their successors or assigns) and 25% to the Franklin Parties (or their successors or assigns). This cost allocation shall remain until the issuance of a
building permit for the Sports Complex Project or Third Parcel Project, at which time the allocation of costs shall be 85% to Princeton and MCH Potash (or their successors or assigns) and 15% to the Franklin Parties (or their successors or assigns).
This allocation applies only to expenses concerning the built portion of Potash Hill Road as it presently exists, the parties expressly agreeing that the Franklin Parties shall bear no obligation for any road-related expenses for any future
extension of Potash Hill Road that as of the Effective Date has not yet been constructed. If the Town of Tyngsborough accepts all or part of Potash Hill Road as a public way of the town, the Parties shall thereafter have no further obligations or
responsibilities under Paragraph 10 or this Paragraph 11 with respect to any portion of Potash Hill Road accepted as a public way, other than to pay their share as set forth in this paragraph of any repairs or maintenance completed before such
acceptance. 
 12. The Franklin Parties, for themselves and their successors and assigns, hereby agree not to, and waive any rights to,
challenge or impede in any way any permits or approvals issued by a governmental entity (past, present and future) for the approval, construction, maintenance, or operation of (i) the Princeton residential / commercial / solar project approved
by the Tyngsborough Planning Board in decisions issued on or about November 11, 2011 and December 16, 2014, by the Tyngsborough Board of Selectmen in a decision issue on or about June 7, 2010, and by the Tyngsborough Conservation

the permits and approvals for such development or operation are currently existing or granted or issued in the future, provided that permits or approvals comply with the applicable governing laws. This Paragraph 12 shall not be construed to limit or
waive any claims the Franklin Parties may have in the future concerning the use of the land described herein, which claims are not related to the permitting of such uses by governmental entities or applicable law. 

13. If the closing of the sale of the Sycamore Land to Princeton does not occur on or before December 31, 2015, or such later date to
which the Parties may extend this deadline by a mutually-acceptable, written instrument signed by all Parties, (x) the Parties shall have no further obligations hereunder and shall instruct Fidelity National Title Insurance Company to return
each document being held in escrow to the Party that placed the document in escrow and (y) the Franklin Parties may re-start the Potash Hill Road Litigation and/or the Mass Crane & Hoist Litigation and, if necessary, file with the Land
Court any appropriate pleadings or memoranda to lift any stay of and to re-start the Litigation. 
 14. Upon the closing of the sale of the
Sycamore Land to Princeton and the recording of the deed thereof, Sycamore’s obligations or responsibilities under this agreement shall transfer to Princeton and Sycamore shall have no further obligations or responsibilities under this
agreement.

Agreement and no implied duties or obligations shall be implied against Escrow Agent. Further, Escrow Agent shall be under no obligation to refer to any other document between or among the Parties referred to in or related to this Escrow Agreement,
unless Escrow Agent is provided with a copy of such document and consents thereto in writing. 
 2. Escrow Agent shall not be liable to
anyone by reason of any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by Escrow Agent in good faith, or for any mistake of fact or law, or for anything which Escrow Agent may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith, unless

 5. Upon
completion of the Closing, and after disbursement of the Settlement Funds as set forth in Paragraph 4 above, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Potash Hill Road Stipulation to Sycamore c/o Charles N. Le Ray, Esq., Dain, Torpy, Le Ray, Wiest &

7. In the event of any disagreement between the Parties resulting in adverse claims and demands being made in connection with the documents
held in escrow of which Escrow Agent is notified prior to delivery or recording hereunder, Escrow Agent shall refuse to comply with the claims or demands of any Party until such disagreement is finally resolved (i) by a court of competent
jurisdiction (in proceedings which Escrow Agent or any other party may initiate, it being 

  
 B-2 








 
understood and agreed by the Parties that Escrow Agent has authority (but not the obligation) to initiate such proceedings), or (ii) by an arbitrator in the event that the Parties mutually
and jointly determine to submit the dispute to arbitration by the Real Estate Bar Association for Massachusetts, and in so doing Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable to a party, or (iii) by written settlement between the Parties.

(including legal fees) and other expenses in any way incurred by Escrow Agent (except to the extent the Escrow Agent willfully disregards any provision of this Escrow Agreement to which it is bound) in connection with or as a result of any
disagreement between the Parties under this Escrow Agreement or otherwise incurred by Escrow Agent in any way on account of its role as Escrow Agent, except that no Party shall have any obligation to pay Escrow Agent any fee for escrow services
hereunder.

any exercise of a right of termination provided by this Escrow Agreement, shall be in writing and shall be deemed effective either: (a) on the third (3rd) business day after being sent, by certified or registered mail, return receipt

 SUPPLEMENTAL ESCROW AGREEMENT 

This Supplemental Escrow Agreement supersedes, modifies, amends and is hereby incorporated into the certain Original Escrow Agreement dated as
of October 5, 2015 (the “Agreement”), by and among Franklin Equities, LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company (“Franklin Equities”), FE Potash 100, LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company (“FE Potash
100”); Sycamore Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sycamore”); Princeton Tyngsboro Commons LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company (“Princeton”); and Potash Properties, LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability
company (“MCH Potash”) (each of Franklin Equities, FE Potash 100, Sycamore, Princeton and MCH Potash, a “Party” and all, collectively, the “Parties”) and Fidelity National Title Insurance Company (“Escrow
Agent”) ; in the event of any conflict between this Rider and the said Agreement, the terms of this Supplemental Escrow Agreement shall control. The Original Escrow Agreement as modified by this Supplemental Escrow Agreement shall hereinafter
be referred to as “the Escrow Agreement.” 
 We, the undersigned, do hereby jointly and severally agree that the Escrow Agent
shall incur no liability whatsoever in connection with its good faith performance under this Escrow Agreement except as may be caused by acts of negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct, and do hereby jointly and severally release and
waive any claims we may have against Escrow Agent, which may result from its performance in good faith of its function under this agreement, including but not limited to, a delay in the electronic wire transfer of funds, except as may be caused by
acts of negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct. Escrow Agent shall be liable only for loss or damage caused directly by its acts of negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct while performing as Escrow Agent under this Escrow
Agreement. 
 The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only those duties which are expressly set forth in the Escrow Agreement and the parties
hereby acknowledge that these duties are purely ministerial in nature. 
 The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the authenticity
of any signature and the genuineness and validity of any writing received by Escrow Agent relating to the Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent may rely upon any oral identification of a party notifying Escrow Agent orally as to matters relating to the
Escrow Agreement if such oral notification is permitted thereunder. Escrow Agent is not responsible for the nature, content, validity or enforceability of any of the escrow documents except for those documents prepared by Escrow Agent. 

In the event of any disagreement between the parties hereto resulting in conflicting instructions to, or adverse claims or demands upon the
Escrow Agent with respect to the release of the Funds or the escrowed document (the “Documents”), the Escrow Agent shall refuse to comply with any such instruction, claim or demand so long as such disagreement shall continue and in so
refusing the Escrow Agent shall not release the escrowed funds (the “Funds”) or the Documents. The Escrow Agent shall not be, or become liable in any way for its failure or refusal to comply with any such conflicting instructions or
adverse claims or demands and it shall be entitled to continue to refrain from acting until such conflicting instructions or adverse claims or demands (a) shall have been adjusted by agreement and it








 
shall have been notified in writing thereof by the parties hereto; or (b) shall have finally been determined in a court of competent jurisdiction. In the alternative, Escrow Agent may, but
shall not be obligated to, file a suit in interpleader for a declaratory judgment for the purpose of having the respective rights of the claimants adjudicated and may deliver to the court the Funds and Documents. 

The Parties each agree to jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent against any and all losses, liabilities, costs
(including legal fees) and other expenses in any way incurred by Escrow Agent (except to the extent the Escrow Agent willfully disregards any provision of the Escrow Agreement to which it is bound) in connection with or as a result of any
disagreement between the Parties under the Escrow Agreement or otherwise incurred by Escrow Agent in any way on account of its role as Escrow Agent, except that no Party shall have any obligation to pay Escrow Agent any fee for escrow services
hereunder. 







 The Escrow Agent may at its sole discretion resign by giving (30) days written notice
thereof to the parties hereto. The parties shall furnish to the Escrow Agent written instructions for the release of the Funds and Documents. If the Escrow Agent shall not have received such written instructions within the thirty (30) days, the
Escrow Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Escrow Agent and upon such appointment deliver the Funds and Documents to such successor. Costs and fees incurred by the Escrow Agent may, at the option
of the Escrow Agent, be deducted from any funds held pursuant hereto. The Escrow Agent neither approves nor disapproves of this transaction, nor does it recommend for or against, nor does it have an opinion as to the legality or validity of the
transaction. 
 If the Funds are at any time attached, garnished, or levied upon under any court order or if the payment or delivery of the
Funds is stayed or enjoined by any court order, or if any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting the Funds, Escrow Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to rely upon and comply with the order, writ, judgment
or decree. Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties or to any other person firm or corporation by reason of such compliance even though the order, writ, judgment or decree may be subsequently reversed modified, annulled, set aside or
vacated. 
 Upon making disposition of the Funds and delivery of the Documents in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, Escrow Agent shall
be deemed fully released and discharged from any and all duties and obligations under the Escrow Agreement, without the need that any other documentation be executed by the Parties. 

Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for (i) any fluctuations in the interest rate applicable to any cash held by it pursuant to or by
virtue of the Escrow Agreement ; (ii) the validity, sufficiency, collectability, or legal effect of any instrument deposited with Escrow Agent. 

The parties acknowledge that the funds will be deposited in an interest bearing Money Market account at RBS Citizens Bank
(“Citizens”). Furthermore, it is understood and agreed by the parties that should Escrow Agent cease to maintain its escrow accounts with Citizens, and establishes its escrow banking relationship with another national banking institution,
that said Funds will transferred to a similar interest bearing account at said institution. 
 Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Agreement to the contrary, Escrow Agent has the right (but not the obligation) to require from the Parties a written release of liability of Escrow Agent, a written authorization to release of the Documents and/or disburse the Funds, or either. 

The parties hereto do hereby certify that they are aware that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) coverages apply
only to a cumulative maximum amount of $250,000 for each individual depositor for all of depositor’s accounts at the same or related institution. The parties hereto further understand that certain banking instruments such as, but not limited
to, repurchase agreements and letters of credit are not covered at all by FDIC insurance. 
 Further the parties hereto understand that
Escrow Agent assumes no responsibility for, nor will the parties hereto hold Escrow Agent liable for, any loss occurring which arises from the 







 
fact that the amount of the above account may cause the aggregate amount of any individual depositor’s accounts to exceed $250,000 and that the excess amount is not insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation or that FDIC insurance is not available on certain types of bank instruments. 
 The parties to this Escrow
Agreement acknowledge that the maintenance of such escrow accounts with some depository institutions may result in Escrow Agent being provided with an array of bank services, accommodations or other benefits by the depository institution. Escrow
Holder or its affiliates also may elect to enter into other business transactions with or obtain loans for investment or other purposes from the depository institution. All such services, accommodations and other benefits shall accrue to Escrow
Agent, and Escrow Agent shall have no obligation to account to the parties to the escrow for the value of such services, accommodations or other benefits.
