square feet of outdoor area, at 100 Sylvan Road, Woburn, MA 01801 (“the leased premises”) for a term of three (3) years commencing at noon on February 28, 2006 and ending at noon on February 28, 2009 unless sooner terminated
as herein provided. LESSOR and LESSEE now covenant and agree that the following terms and conditions shall govern this lease. 
  
 1. RENT. LESSEE shall pay to LESSOR base rent at the rate of three hundred twenty six thousand three hundred eighty five (326,385) U.S. dollars per year, drawn on a
U.S. bank, payable in advance in monthly installments of $27, 198.75 on the first day in each calendar month, without offset or deduction, The first monthly payment, plus an appropriate fraction of a monthly payment for any portion of a month at the
commencement of the lease term, shall be made upon LESSEE’s execution of this lease. All payments shall be made to LESSOR at 200 West Cummings Park, Woburn, Massachusetts 01801, or at such other place as designated in writing by LESSOR. If the
“Cost of Living” has increased as shown by the Consumer Price Index (Boston Massachusetts, all Items, all urban consumers), U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, then base rent due during each calendar year of this lease and any extensions
thereof shall be annually adjusted in proportion to any increase in the Index. All such adjustments shall take place with the rent due each January 1. The base month from which to determine the amount of each increase in the Index shall be
January 2005, which figure shall be compared with the figure for November 2005, and each November thereafter to determine the increase (if any) in the base rent to be paid during the following calendar year. If the Consumer Price Index referenced
above is discontinued as a measure of “Cost of Living” changes, LESSOR shall substitute a comparable index then in general use. a 
  
 2. SECURITY DEPOSIT. LESSEE shall pay to LESSOR a
security deposit of forty one thousand (41,000) U.S. dollars, drawn on a U.S. bank, upon LESSEE’s execution of this lease, which shall be held as security for LESSEE’s performance hereunder and refunded to LESSEE without interest at
the end of this lease, subject to LESSEE’s satisfactory compliance with the conditions hereof. LESSEE may not apply the security deposit to any payment due under the lease. In the event of any default or breach of this lease by LESSEE, however,
LESSOR may elect to apply the security deposit first to any unamortized improvements completed for LESSEE’s occupancy, then to offset any outstanding invoice or other payment due to LESSOR, and then to outstanding rent. If all or any portion of
the security deposit is applied to cure a default or breach during the term of this lease, LESSEE shall restore said deposit forthwith. LESSEE’s failure to remit the full security deposit or any portion thereof or to restore said deposit when
due shall constitute a substantial lease default. If LESSEE fails to pay the security deposit and first month’s rend on a timely basis, LESSOR may retake possession and relet the leased premises for LESSEE’s account, or declare this lease
null and void for failure of consideration.

increase in the tax rate or the assessment on the property, or a change in the method of determining real estate taxes. Any additional rent shall be prorated should the lease terminate before the end of any tax year. The base from which to determine
the amount of any increase in taxes shall be the rate and the assessment in effect as of July 1, 2005, net of abatements, if any.

performance of any of LESSEE’s covenants, agreements, or obligations hereunder, and such default shall not be corrected within10 days after written notice thereof, then LESSOR shall have the right thereafter, while such default continues and

any remedies which might be otherwise used for arrears of rent or other default or breach of the lease. If LESSEE defaults in the payment of the security deposit, rent, taxes, or substantial invoice from LESSOR or LESSOR’s agent, and such
default shall continue for 10 days after written notice thereof, and, because both parties agree that nonpayment of said sums when due is a substantial breach of the lease, and, because the payment of rent in monthly installments is for the sole
benefit and convenience of LESSEE, then, in addition to any other remedies, the net present value of the entire balance of rend due hereunder as of the date of LESSOR’s notice, using the published prime rate then in effect, shall immediately

also pay LESSOR interest at the rate of 18 percent per annum on any past due payment.

by notice in accordance with this section, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by recognized courier service with a receipt therefore, addressed to LESSEE. Any notice from LESSEE to LESSOR relating to the
leased premises or this lease shall be deemed duly served when served by constable, or delivered to LESSOR by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by recognized courier service with a receipt therefore,

lease term, LESSEE will perform and observe all of its covenants under this lease from the date upon which it takes possession. If LESSEE continues to occupy, control or encumber all or any part of the leased premises after the termination of this
lease without the written permission of LESSOR, LESSEE shall be liable to LESSOR for any and all loss, damages or expenses incurred by LESSOR, and all terms of this lease shall continue to apply, except that use and occupancy payments shall be due
in full monthly installments at a rate which shall be two times the greater of the monthly rent due under this lease immediately prior to termination or LESSOR’s then current published rent for the leased premises, it being understood that such
extended occupancy is a tenancy at sufferance, solely for the benefit and convenience of LESSEE and of greater rental value. LESSEE’s control, occupancy or encumbrance of all or any part of the leased premises beyond noon on the last day of any
monthly rental period shall constitute LESSEE’s occupancy for an entire additional month, and increased payment as provided in this section shall be due and payable immediately in advance. LESSOR’s acceptance of any payments from LESSEE
during such extended occupancy shall not alter LESSEE’s status as a tenant at sufferance.

 CUMMINGS PROPERTIES, LLC 
 STANDARD FORM 
 RIDER TO LEASE 
  
 The following additional provisions are incorporated into and made a part of the attached lease: 
  
 A. CONFLICTS. In the event of any conflict between any provision of this Rider to Lease and
the attached lease, the provisions of this Rider shall govern. 
  
 B. SOUTH ESSEX
SEWERAGE DISTRICT. With respect to leases at Cummings Center in Beverly (only), LESSEE shall fully comply with all regulations of the South Essex Sewerage District (SESD) now or hereafter in effect, including prompt filing with LESSOR of any
documents required by SESD regulations, and LESSEE agrees to indemnify and hold harmless LESSOR and OWNER from any and all liability arising out of any non compliance by LESSEE with such regulations. 
  
 C. ACTIVITY AND USE RESTRICTION. With respect to leases at Cummings Center in Beverly and 10
and 18 Commerce Way in Woburn (only), and except as provided below, the following activities and uses are expressly prohibited at the property of which the leased premises are a part: residential uses (except for facilities for adult congregate care
or assisted living, senior housing, nursing home uses and other adult residential facilities in certain designated areas of the property); child care, day care, or public or private elementary or secondary schools; a public park, playground or
playing field, or other activities involving more than casual contact with the ground; cultivation out-of-doors of fruits and vegetables destined for human consumption; and fishing or swimming in the ponds and other waterways on or adjacent to the
property. In addition, implementation of a health and safety plan is required for construction, utilities maintenance and other intrusive activities which are likely to involve extensive exposure to or contact with subsurface soils at the property.
Notices of Activity and Use Limitation providing further information have been recorded at the Essex South Registry of Deeds and the Middlesex South Registry of Deeds, respectively, as well as recorded amendments authorizing both child care and a
public elementary school in specific locations at Cummings Center. 
  
 D. PARKING.
LESSEE shall be entitled to use, in common with others, a proportionate share of the total number of common area parking spaces provided for the building (based on square footage leased by LESSEE as compared with the total leasable square footage of
the building)*. The number of spaces used by LESSEE’s employees, agents and invitees shall not at any time exceed Lessee’s proportionate share of the total spaces for the building. For purposes of determining LESSEE’s compliance with
this paragraph at any time, the number of spaces used by LESSEE shall be presumed to equal the n umber of persons who are then present at the leased premises subject to LESSEE establishing, in some other reasonably acceptable manner, the actual
number of spaces it is using.*, but no fewer than 26 spaces. 
  
 E. REMEDIES. The
parties agree that the actual damages to LESSOR as a result of nonpayment of rent by LESSEE would be difficult to ascertain as of the execution of this lease; therefore, notwithstanding Section 20 above, the entire balance of unpaid rent, as a
reasonably estimate of such actual damages, shall become immediately due and payable, but only if LESSEE defaults in the payment of rent due under this lease and not in the payment of any security deposit, invoice, taxes or other charge which may
also be due under this lease. The parties additionally agree that in the event rent payments are accelerated, the total amount due shall be discounted to its net present value as of the date of LESSOR’s notice of default, using the published
prime rate then in effect. Section 20 shall continue to apply in all other respects. 
  
 F. RECORDING AND SECURITY. Although LESSOR may choose at any time to record activities at the building with unmonitored remove television cameras, LESSEE acknowledges and agrees that, as provided in Section 15
above, LESSOR is not thereby or in any other way providing any security service for LESSEE or its employees, agents, invitees, contractors and representatives, and that LESSOR has made no representations whatsoever, written or oral, concerning the
safety of the leased premises or the presence, effectiveness or operability of any security devices or security measures, or the safety or security of LESSEE, its employees, agents, invitees, callers, contractors and representatives, or
LESSEE’s property, against the criminal or wrongful acts of third parties. Additionally, LESSEE accepts full responsibility for protecting the persons and property of LESSEE and those of its employees, agents, invitees, callers, contractors and
representatives, and (acknowledging that security devices or measures may fail or be thwarted by criminals, by other third parties or be electrical or mechanical malfunction), agrees not to rely on any such devices or measures, and to protect
itself, its property, and its employees, agents, invitees, callers, contractors and representatives as if such devices or measures did not exist. 
  
 G. The parties acknowledge and agree that as of the execution of this lease, LESSEE currently occupies the leased premises (and other premises in the building (the
“prior premises”)) under two separate leases between the parties currently terminating on February 28, 2006. Prior to the commencement date herein, LESSEE, at LESSEE’s sold expense, shall fully separate all voice and data wiring
and networks, all non-standard heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment and all non-standard electrical systems serving the leased premises from any such wiring, networks equipment and systems serving any part of the building other than
the leased premises (“LESSEE’s Work”). LESSEE shall repair any damage resulting for such separation, restore any affected areas to their condition prior to the installation of said wiring networks, equipment and systems, and, in
accordance with all applicable building and electrical codes and at LESSOR’s option, either remove or label all wiring and cabling from any part of the building other than the leased premises that is associated with any telecommunications and
computer network equipment. Lessee shall be deemed to be occupying the prior premises until LESSEE’s work there is complete, and any such occupancy after the commencement date of this lease shall be governed by Section 21 of the two prior
leases. Time is of the essence. 
  
 H. LESSOR, at LESSOR’s cost, shall modify
the leased premises according to the mutually agreed upon plan attached hereto, within approximately 60 days after the completion of LESSEE’s Work and LESSOR’s receipt of a building permit for LESSOR’s work. 
  
 I. *LESSEE shall move its furniture, furnishings, equipment, inventory and other property as
requested by LESSOR to enable LESSOR to carry out the above-described modifications to the leased premises. LESSEE shall indemnify and hold harmless LESSOR and LESSOR’s agents, employees and contractors from any injury or damage arising out of
this work. 







 J. Provided LESSEE is not then in arrears of any rent or invoice payments or otherwise in default of t his lease, LESSEE
shall have two options to extend the lease, including all terms, conditions, escalations, etc., each for an additional period of one year (“the First Option” and “the Second Option”, respectively), in each case by serving LESSOR
with written notice of its desire to so extend the lease. The time for serving such written notice shall be not more than 12 months or less than six months prior to the expiration of the then current lease terms. In the event LESSEE does not
exercise the First Option or the Second Option, LESSEE shall pay LESSOR non-renewal fees of $90,000 or $45,000, respectively, no later than six months prior to the then current lease termination date. Time is of the essence. 
  
 K. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 18 of this lease to the contrary, upon full
execution of this lease, LESSOR agrees to pay a brokerage commission on LESSEE’s behalf to Brian T. Hines of Trammell Crow Company on account of this lease (only) equal to one-half of LESSOR’s standard commission for new business, which
payment is currently estimated to be $19,583.10. In the event LESSEE exercises either or both the First Option and the Second Option, LESSOR shall pay Brian T. Hines an additional commission, which is currently estimated to be $4,895.78, upon the
exercise of each option. LESSEE warrants that these are the total commissions to be paid by LESSOR on account of this lease and said options. 
  
 L. The parties acknowledge and agree that, as of the execution of this lease, not all of the perimeter walls of Suites 350, 550 and 575 have been built. Accordingly, upon
completion of the modifications provided for herein, LESSOR shall carefully measure Suites 350, 550 and 575, and if the size, including common area, does not equal the number of square feet set forth above, LESSOR shall notify LESSEE in writing of
the actual revised square footage and the corresponding increase or decrease in base rent, based on a base rate of $22.45 per square foot, and said actual square footage and adjusted base rent shall be substituted for the figures herein, except such
rent change shall not be greater or less than five percent of the base rent. 
  
 M. The parties agree that the outdoor area referenced in the preamble of this lease is part of the leased premises in all respects, including without limitation in determining LESSEE’s proportionate share of any real estate tax
increases pursuant to Section 4 above and with respect to LESSEE’s liability and obligation to maintain insurance pursuant to Sections 16 and 17 above. LESSEE shall be solely responsible for maintaining the outdoor area. 
  
 N. *LESSOR shall transfer the $41,000 security deposit held by LESSOR under a prior lease
between the parties at 100 Sylvan Road, Suite 400 to this lease, less any deductions which may be made in accordance with said prior lease. Upon notification by LESSOR of any deduction from the transferred security deposit, LESSEE shall promptly
restore the full security deposit as provided in Section 2 above. Time is of the essence. 
  
 O. *LESSEE shall have the right to assign this lease to an entity in which LESSEE owns at least a 50 percent interest, an entity which owns at least a 50 percent interest in LESSEE, and entity which is under common
control with LESSEE, or an entity which is formed as a result of a merger or consolidation involving LESSEE, without further consent from LESSOR, provided LESSEE serves LESSOR with prior written notice to that effect, together with all required
certificates of insurance from the assignee. The provisions of Section 11 shall govern said assignment in all other respects. 
  
 P. *LESSEE shall have access to the leased premises seven days per week, 24 hours per day. LESSEE acknowledges and agrees that LESSOR has no responsibility for providing
any security services for the leased premises, and LESEE assumes any and all risks in that regard. 
  
 Q. *In the event this lease is terminated and LESSEE pays LESSOR accelerated rend in accordance with the provisions of Section 20 and Paragraph E. herein, LESSOR shall credit LESSEE for any rents actually
received by LESSOR over the balance of the lease term minus all costs incurred by LESSOR in re-letting the premises. LESSOR’s failure to re-let the leased premises despite LESSOR’s reasonable efforts shall not limit LESSEE’s liability
hereunder. 
  
 R. With respect to any condition existing prior to the commencement
of LESSEE’s occupancy of the leased premises under this lease or any prior lease between the parties, LESSOR shall hold LESSEE harmless from any and all suits, judgments, or liabilities, for any “release”, as defined in
Section 101(22) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (“CERCLA”) or in Mass. G.L. c. 21E, §2 (“c.21E”), of any “hazardous substance” as defined in
Section 101(14) or CERCLA, any “hazardous material” as defined in Section 2 of c. 21D or any petroleum (including crude oil or any fraction thereof) as a result of any activity on the property of which the leased premises are a
part occurring prior to LESSEE’s occupancy and not caused in any way by LESSEE. 
  
 S. *LESSEE shall reasonably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the leased premises for the term hereof without hindrance or molestation from LESSOR, provided LESSEE is not in arrears of any rent or invoice payment and is in full compliance
with all terms, conditions and obligations of this lease. 
  
 T. In the event
LESSOR shall default in the performance of any of its obligations under this lease, and such default shall continue for 30 days after notice thereof from LESSEE, or longer if the default cannot reasonably be cured in 30 days and LESSOR commences to
cure the default within the 30-day period but then fails to diligently proceed with a cure, then LESSEE shall have the right to cure such default. LESSOR shall then promptly reimburse LESSEE for reasonable and necessary costs paid by LESSEE to any
third party to cure such default. If LESSOR does not so reimburse LESSEE within 30 days after receipt of an invoice (with detailed back-up for such costs), then LESSEE shall have the right, upon notice to LESSOR of its intent to do so, to deduct
such amount from the next succeeding installment(s) of rent or other sums due under this lease, unless LESSOR notifies LESSEE in writing that LESSOR in good faith disputes such amount and provides the detailed rationale for the dispute. 

 
 U. *In the event LESSOR approves a sublease or an assignment of the lease, LESSEE shall
pay LESSOR on the first day of each month during the period of the sublease or assignment, 50 percent of any amount by which the payments due to LESSEE under the sublease or assignment exceed the rent payment due from LESSEE to LESSOR for that
month. Such amount shall, however, be calculated on a proportionate basis in the case of a sublease of only a portion of the leased premises. 
  
 V. *In the event that the entire balance of rent is accelerated pursuant to Section 20 above on account of the non-payment of any sums due under these, provided
LESSEE then fully cures such non-payment and pays any other sums that are then due (including LESSOR’s legal fees and costs” prior to the entry of a judgment for possession, LESSOR agrees to reinstate the lease in full and to waive the
acceleration of the rent, without waiving any rights which may arise with respect to any subsequent default. Time is of the essence.
