“Tenant shall have three (3) consecutive rights to extend the term of this Lease for five (5) years each (each, an “Extension Term”), provided that Tenant shall give Landlord notice of Tenant's exercise of such option no sooner than twenty-four 
6












(24) months and no later than eighteen (18) months prior to the expiration of the then current Term, and provided further that Tenant shall not be in default   at the time of giving such notice under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods.”

4.     Alterations and Restoration.

The Landlords acknowledge and agree that the Tenant Improvements will be designed and performed in furtherance of a master planning effort undertaken by Tenant and reviewed by the Landlords, the effect of which will be to treat the three Premises as a unified whole, without regard to property line and Premises boundaries. Each Landlord agrees to be reasonable in reviewing and approving applicable Tenant Improvements on its Premises, regardless of the location of such Tenant Improvements within the overall project. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the One Investors Lease regarding restoration of Installations (as defined in the One Investors Lease), Tenant shall have no obligation to remove and restore at the end of the Term any new buildings or expansions of existing buildings, landscaping, planted areas, walks, roadways, parking, and other new installations and improvements on the Premises outside of the existing buildings.
5.    Tenant Improvement Allowance. Each of the three Landlords agrees to provide an additional tenant improvement allowance of $60.00 per rentable square foot of the applicable Premises, for an aggregate total of $41,010,780.00 (the “2021 Tenant Improvement Allowance” or “2021 TIA”), broken down as follows: $14,400,000.00 under the One Investors Lease, $12,025,860.00 under the 100 Tech Lease, and $14,584,920.00 under the One Upland Lease. Notwithstanding that the 2021 TIA has been allocated to each of the separate Landlords, Tenant is not bound by such allocation, and the Landlords acknowledge and agree that Tenant may apply any amount of the 2021 TIA to Tenant Improvements across the three Premises as Tenant sees fit, without regard to each Landlord’s portion of the total. Notwithstanding contrary provisions of the Leases governing disbursement of tenant allowance funds, the 2021 Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be disbursed and used as follows:
a.Tenant shall have no right to any portion of the 2021 TIA that is not disbursed before the second anniversary of the date hereof. 
b.Costs. The 2021 TIA shall be used solely for the payment of design (including A&E drawings), permits and construction, and construction management costs in connection with the construction of tenant improvements, site work, new structures and other hard construction costs (the “Tenant Improvements”) at the properties covered by the three Leases (collectively, the "TI Costs"). The 2021 TIA shall not be used to purchase any furniture, personal property or other non-building system materials or equipment, including, but not be limited to, non-ducted biological safety cabinets and other scientific equipment not incorporated into the Tenant Improvements; provided, 
7












however, the 2021 TIA may be used for Tenant’s voice and data cabling, special electrical power distribution, telephone and security systems. 
Landlord shall have no obligation to bear any portion of the cost of any of the Tenant Improvements except to the extent of the 2021 TIA and except to the extent that any remaining contributions or allowances remain under each of the existing Leases as of the date hereof.
c.Procedure. During the course of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for TI Costs once a month (such reimbursement not to exceed, in the aggregate, the amount of the 2021 TIA) against a draw request in Landlord’s standard form, containing evidence of payment of such TI Costs by Tenant and such certifications, lien waivers (including a conditional lien release for each progress payment and unconditional lien releases for the prior month’s progress payments), inspection reports and other matters as Landlord customarily obtains, to the extent of Landlord’s approval thereof for payment, no later than the last day of the calendar month immediately following the calendar month in which the draw request was made. Upon completion of the Tenant Improvements (and prior to any final disbursement of the 2021 TIA), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord: (i) sworn statements setting forth the names of all contractors and first tier subcontractors who did the work and final, unconditional lien waivers from all such contractors and first tier subcontractors; (ii) as-built plans (one copy in print format and two copies in electronic CAD format) for such Tenant Improvements; (iii) a certification of substantial completion in Form AIA G704, (iv) a certificate of occupancy for the premises covered by each Lease, to the extent not already delivered; and (v) copies of all operation and maintenance manuals and warranties affecting the premises covered by each Lease.
d.Nonpayment; Offset Right; Disputes. If any Landlord fails timely to pay any portion of the 2021 TIA when such portion is properly due to Tenant and as to which Tenant has satisfied each of the foregoing requisition conditions, and such failure shall continue for 30 days after written notice from Tenant to such Landlord (which such notice shall describe in detail the basis on which Tenant asserts that such Landlord has wrongfully failed to disburse such amount), then Tenant, provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, may deliver a second notice to such Landlord that includes in at least 14 point-type and all capitals (with the rest of the notice in standard font and type-size) the phrase “FAILURE TO IMMEDIATELY RESPOND COULD RESULT IN THE FORFEITURE OF RIGHTS” (an “Offset Notice”), which notice shall specify the portion of the TI Allowance that has not been timely paid and the date upon which request for payment was first sent to such Landlord, and, if such Landlord fails to disburse the amount expressly referenced in the Offset Notice within 10 business days, then Tenant shall have the right to have such unpaid amount credited against the next installment(s) of Base Rent thereafter due under the applicable Lease, until such sums due Tenant have been fully paid by such Landlord or fully credited and accounted for; provided however, that the amount so offset by Tenant in any calendar month shall not exceed 20% of the amount of the monthly installment of Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord under the applicable Lease with respect to such calendar month. If, however, Landlord notifies Tenant prior to the expiration of such 10 business day period that Landlord disputes that Landlord has wrongfully 
8












failed to disburse the amount claimed by Tenant, and if Landlord and Tenant are not able to reach agreement with respect to such dispute (with Landlord disbursing any undisputed amounts which Landlord is required to disburse under this Work Letter) within 10 business days after Tenant’s receipt of a such notice from Landlord, then the parties shall submit such dispute to arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association in Boston, Massachusetts in accordance with the “Expedited Procedures” of its Commercial Arbitration Rules, in which case Base Rent shall not be offset by such disputed amount unless and until Tenant prevails in such arbitration and the arbitrator concludes that Tenant has the right to such offset right and determines the amount owed to Tenant by Landlord, if any, that is to be offset against Base Rent. All costs associated with arbitration shall be awarded to the prevailing party as determined by the arbitrator.
e.Tenant Improvement Progress Reports. On or before the 10th day of each calendar month during the course of design and construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall deliver to Landlords a Tenant Improvement progress report in a form provided by Landlords completed to provide all of the most up-to-date information regarding Tenant’s progress with respect the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements.
     6.    Cross-Default. Tenant agrees that a “Default” under the One Investors Lease or “Event of Default” under the 100 Tech Lease and One Upland Lease shall automatically constitute a Default or Event of Default, as applicable, under all three Leases.
7.    Authority. Landlords represent and warrant to Tenant that they have the right, power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment and to perform their obligations hereunder, and this Amendment is a valid and binding obligation of Landlords enforceable against Landlords in accordance with the terms hereof. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlords that it has the right, power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment and to perform its obligations hereunder, and this Amendment is a valid and binding obligation of Tenant enforceable against Tenant in accordance with the terms hereof. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlords are in full compliance with the terms of the Leases and no event exists or has occurred that constitutes or could ripen into a Landlord default under the Leases.
8.Brokerage. Landlords and Tenant each hereby represents that, other than Newmark Grubb Knight Frank and Jones Lang LaSalle (collectively, the “Brokers”), it has not dealt with any broker, agent or other person entitled to a commission, compensation, or fee with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Amendment. Landlords and Tenant each hereby agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the other, and its successors and assigns, against and from all claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of any claim by any broker, agent, or other person or entity, other than the Brokers, claiming a commission or other form of compensation based upon alleged dealings with the indemnifying party with respect to this Amendment. Landlords shall be responsible to pay the commission due to the Brokers pursuant to a separate agreement.
9.Ratification; Conflict; Amendment. Except as amended herein, the Leases shall remain in full force and effect and the parties hereto ratify and reconfirm the Leases. On and after the date hereof, each reference in the Leases to “this Lease,” “the Lease,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” or words of like import, and each reference to the Lease in any other agreements, documents, or instruments executed and delivered pursuant to, or in connection with, the Leases, will mean and be a reference to the Leases as amended by this Amendment. In the 
9












event of any conflict between this Amendment and the Leases, the provisions of this Amendment shall control. No amendment or modification of this Amendment, and no further amendment or modification of the Leases, will be effective unless it is in writing and signed by Landlords and Tenant.
10.Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
11.Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in as many counterparts as the parties hereto may deem necessary or convenient, and each such counterpart shall be deemed an original but all of which, together, shall constitute but one and the same document. Counterparts may be delivered via electronic mail (including PDF or any electronic signature process complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000) or other transmission method, and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes. Electronic signatures shall be deemed original signatures for purposes of this Amendment and all matters related thereto, with such electronic signatures having the same legal effect as original signatures.
12.Successors and Assigns. The provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns.
13.Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of a dispute between the parties, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs paid by the other party.
14.Acknowledgment. Tenant and Landlords each acknowledge that it has read the provisions of this Amendment, understands them, and is bound by them. Time is of the essence in this Amendment.
