Amounts outstanding under the Credit Facilities, together with interest, shall become due in the
manner and at the rates and times specified in this Agreement and shall be paid in the currency of

are repayable by scheduled blended payments, such payments shall be applied, firstly, to interest
due, and the balance, if any, shall be applied to principal outstanding. If any such payment is

such Borrowing, will bear interest at the same rate, and will be payable on demand or on the date
specified herein, as the case may be. Borrowings repayable by way of scheduled payments of
principal and interest shall be so repaid with any balance of such Borrowings being due and payable
as and when specified in this Agreement- The Borrower shall ensure that the maturities of

in whole or in part without fee or premium.

be continuing, the Borrower may prepay such Borrowings on a non-cumulative basis up to the
percentage, as selected by the Borrower for each FRT Loan, of the outstanding principal balance on
the day of prepayment, without fee or premium, once per year during the 12 month period from each
anniversary date of the Borrowing, Prepayments greater than the amounts provided for herein may be

facility 6ue to an Event of Default, the Borrower shall immediately repay all principal sums
outstanding under such facility and all other obligations in connection with any such term
facility.

Bank.

INCREASED COSTS

The Borrower shall reimburse the Bank for any additional cost or reduction in income arising as a

Agreement, it is necessary to convert into the currency of such jurisdiction (the “Judgement
Currency”) any amount due hereunder in any currency other than the Judgement Currency, then
conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on
which judgement is given. For this purpose “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Bank
would, on the relevant date, be prepared to sell a similar amount of such currency in the Toronto
foreign exchange market, against the Judgement Currency, in accordance with normal banking
procedures.

In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day
before the day on which judgement is given and the date of payment of the amount due, the Borrower
will, on the date of payment, pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the
amount paid on such date is the amount in the Judgement Currency which, when converted at the rate
of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, is the amount then due under this Agreement in such
other currency together with interest at RBP and expenses (including legal fees on a solicitor and
client basis). Any additional amount due from the Borrower under this section will be due as a
separate debt and shall not be affected by judgement being obtained for any other sums due under or
in respect of this Agreement.

Contract, upon request by the Bank from time to time, the Borrower will deliver to the
Bank such security as is acceptable to the Bank as continuing collateral security for
the Borrower’s obligations to the Bank in respect of FEF Contracts.

Delaware corporation (“Subtenant”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

     A. Andover Mills LLC (“Original Landlord”) entered into a lease with Sublandlord dated August
22, 2005 (the “Master Lease”), whereby Original Landlord leased to Sublandlord certain premises
(the “Premises”) containing approximately 12,150 square feet of rentable area on the second floor
of the building commonly known as 200 Brickstone Square, Andover, Massachusetts; and

     B. Landlord has heretofore succeeded to all of the right, title and interest of Original
Landlord as the landlord under the Master Lease; and

     C. Sublandlord desires to sublet all of the Premises to Subtenant (the “Subleased Premises”)
and Subtenant desires to lease the Subleased Premises from Sublandlord; and

     D. The terms of the Master Lease require the consent of Landlord to any such subletting and
Landlord has agreed to grant such consent, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

     NOW, THEREFORE, Landlord hereby consents to the sublease of the Subleased Premises between
Sublandlord a Subtenant pursuant to that certain Sublease dated as of
December 11, 2007 (the “Sublease”), a copy of which Sublease is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A,
subject to the following terms and conditions:

     1. The Sublease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to all of the covenants,
agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of the Master Lease and of this Consent. Neither
Sublandlord nor Subtenant shall do or permit anything to be done in connection with the Sublease or
Subtenant’s occupancy of the Subleased Premises which will violate the Master Lease or this
Consent.

     2. This Consent shall not be deemed a consent to any amendment of the Sublease or to any
future assignment of the Master Lease or sublease of all or any part of the Premises by
Sublandlord. Sublandlord and Subtenant will not amend the Sublease, without the prior written
consent of Landlord in each instance. Subtenant will not, without prior written consent of
Landlord in each instance, assign the Sublease or sublet the Subleased Premises or any part
thereof.

     3. Subtenant agrees that no alterations, additions or physical changes will be made in the
Subleased Premises or any part thereof without Landlord’s prior written consent in each instance.
All such permitted alterations, additions or physical changes shall remain upon and be surrendered
with the Subleased Premises unless, prior to or upon the expiration or termination of

 

 

the Sublease, Landlord shall give written notice to Subtenant to remove the same, in which
event Subtenant shall remove such alterations, additions or physical changes within ten (10) days
after the expiration or termination of the Sublease, and repair any damage to the Subleased
Premises caused by the installation or removal thereof.

     4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Sublease, nothing contained in
the Sublease or in this Consent shall enlarge or increase Landlord’s obligations or liabilities
under the Master Lease or otherwise, and in the event of a default in the Master Lease which
results in a termination thereof, and in the event of any other termination of the Master Lease
pursuant to the terms thereof, the Sublease, Subtenant’s rights in the Subleased Premises, and
Subtenant’s obligations under the Sublease (except to the extent such obligations would otherwise
have survived the expiration of the Sublease) shall also automatically be terminated.

     5. Upon the execution of this Consent and the Sublease, Subtenant agrees to be fully bound and
obligated under all the terms and conditions of the Master Lease with respect to the Subleased
Premises except for the covenants and agreements of Sublandlord set forth therein with respect to
the payment of “Base Rent”, “Taxes” and “Operating Costs” (as such terms are defined in the Master
Lease) and, except as set forth in Section 6 below, other charges payable from Sublandlord to Prime
Landlord. This Consent by Landlord shall not act to bind Landlord to perform any of the
obligations of Sublandlord as may be provided in the Sublease.

     6. Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that Landlord may furnish to the Subleased Premises
services requested by Subtenant other than or in addition to those to be provided under the Master
Lease, and bill Subtenant directly for such services without notice to Sublandlord. Subtenant
hereby agrees to pay to Landlord all amounts that may become due for such services on the due dates
therefore. If Subtenant shall fail to make such payment, Sublandlord agrees to pay such amounts to
Landlord upon demand as additional rent under the Master Lease.

     7. Subtenant agrees that it shall carry insurance during the entire term required to be
carried by Tenant under the Master Lease. Landlord and Subtenant agree to have all physical damage
or material damage insurance which may be carried by either of them, and Subtenant agrees to have
all business interruption insurance which it carries, endorsed to provide that any release from
liability of, or waiver of claim for, recovery from the other party entered into in writing by the
insured thereunder prior to any loss or damage shall not affect the validity of said policy or the
right of the insured to recover thereunder and providing further that the insurer waives all rights
of subrogation which such insurer might have against the other party. Without limiting any release
or waiver of liability or recovery contained in any other section of the Master Lease, but rather
in confirmation and furtherance thereof, each of the parties hereto waives all claims for recovery
from the other party for any loss or damage to any of its property or damages as a result of
business interruption. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained in this Consent to the
contrary, any release and any waiver of claims shall not be operative, nor shall the foregoing
endorsements be required, in any case where the effect of such release and waiver is to invalidate
insurance coverage or increase the cost thereof (provided that, in the case of increased cost, the
other party shall have the right, within ten (10) days following written notice, to pay such
increased cost keeping such release and waiver in full force and effect).

     8. Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that, in the event Sublandlord is in default beyond
applicable periods of notice and cure with respect to any of its obligations under the Master
Lease, Subtenant shall, upon receipt of written notice from Landlord delivered to the Subleased
Premises, pay to Landlord all rents as and when due under the Sublease for application against
Sublandlord’s obligations under the Master Lease. No acceptance of rent payments under the
Sublease by Landlord shall be deemed to waive Landlord’s rights and remedies against Sublandlord or
to obligate Landlord to perform Sublandlord’s obligations under the Sublease.

     9. Sublandlord and Subtenant each agree to promptly deliver to Landlord at the office of the
Building copies of all notices received or sent by such party in connection with the Sublease.

     10. Sublandlord hereby represents to Landlord that the Sublease attached hereto as Exhibit A
(a) is a correct and complete copy of the document it purports to be, and (b) contains the entire
agreement and understanding between Sublandlord and Subtenant with regard to the subject matter
contained therein, specifically including without limitation, all agreements concerning rent and
other consideration payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord for the Subleased Premises. Sublandlord
and Subtenant represent and warrant that Sublandlord is not receiving a net profit in connection
with the Sublease.

     11. Sublandlord and Subtenant acknowledge and agree that the Subleased Premises contain 12,150
square feet of rentable area.

     12. Sublandlord shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord, its members and their
respective members. partners, officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against any and
all liabilities and claims for brokerage commissions and fees arising out of or in connection with
the Sublease of the Subleased Premises.

     13. Sublandlord shall, upon demand, reimburse Landlord for all costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable fees paid to consultants, if any, and attorneys’ fees) incurred by
Landlord in connection with Landlord’s consideration and documentation of its consent to the
Sublease to the extent that such costs and expenses do not exceed One Thousand Dollars ($1,000).

     14. This Consent shall not be changed orally but only by an agreement in writing signed by all
parties hereto.

     15. This Consent is not intended to nor shall it be construed as a release of Sublandlord from
any of Sublandlord’s obligations to Landlord as tenant under the Master Lease nor shall this
Consent be deemed to consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use of the
Subleased Premises or any portion thereof by another person or entity.

Base Rent shall be payable to Sublandlord, partial months to be prorated on a daily
basis, on the first (1st) day of each month in advance by check drawn on a domestic
bank, and shall be paid without prior demand therefor and without any deduction or
setoff whatsoever. Upon execution hereof, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord the
first month’s installment of Base Rent, and Base Rent for any partial month at the
beginning of the Sublease Term. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the
obligations of Subtenant hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and
agreements, that Rent shall continue to be payable in all events and that the
obligations of Subtenant hereunder shall continue unaffected, unless the requirement
to pay or perform the same shall have been terminated pursuant to an express
provision of this Sublease.

	 	3.	 	Security Deposit. Subtenant shall deposit with Sublandlord upon
execution hereof the amount of Ninety Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($95,000.00) as
security for Subtenant’s faithful performance of Subtenant’s obligations hereunder (the
“Security Deposit”). After a Subtenant Event of Default, Sublandlord may apply
the Security Deposit, or any part thereof, to Sublandlord’s damages without prejudice
to any other Sublandlord remedy. Should the entire Security Deposit, or any portion
thereof, be applied by Sublandlord in accordance with the provisions hereof, Subtenant
shall forthwith upon demand pay to Sublandlord an amount sufficient to restore such
Security Deposit to the amount thereof prior to such application. Sublandlord shall
have the same rights and remedies for the non-payment by Subtenant of any amounts due
on account of the Security Deposit as Sublandlord has hereunder for failure of the
Subtenant to pay Base Rent, Additional Rent (hereinafter defined) and other charges
(collectively, “Rent”). Provided that Subtenant is not then in default,
Sublandlord shall return the Security Deposit or so much thereof as shall not have
previously been applied in accordance with the provisions of this Sublease, to
Subtenant within thirty (30) days following the expiration or earlier termination of
the Sublease and performance by Subtenant of all of the obligations of Subtenant to be
performed hereunder, including, without limitation, the surrender of the Premises in
compliance with the provisions hereof and the payment of all amounts payable by
Subtenant.

(a) As an alternative to the payment of the Security Deposit in cash, Subtenant may
deliver to Sublandlord an irrevocable letter of credit as security for Subtenant’s
faithful performance of Subtenant’s obligations hereunder, which letter of credit
shall (i) name Sublandlord as beneficiary, (ii) be in the original face amount of
Ninety Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($95,000.00), (hi) be in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit C and incorporated herein; (iv) issued by a bank with a
credit rating of not less than S&P AA, or as otherwise reasonably acceptable to
Sublandlord; and (v) be for a term of at least one (1) year, subject to extension in
accordance with the terms hereof (the “Letter of Credit”). In the

 

 

event that Subtenant fails to keep and perform any of the terms, covenants and
conditions of this Sublease to be kept and performed by Subtenant, then Sublandlord
at its sole option may draw down all or a part of the Letter of Credit to compensate
Sublandlord for loss or damage sustained or suffered by Sublandlord due to such
breach on the part of Subtenant. Should Sublandlord so apply all or any portion of
the Letter of Credit, Subtenant shall, upon Sublandlord’s demand, deliver to
Sublandlord a replacement Letter of Credit in the full original amount, and
Subtenant’s failure to do so within two (2) business days after receipt of such
demand shall constitute a Subtenant Event of Default hereunder. The application of
all or any part of the cash proceeds of the Letter of Credit to any obligation or
default of Subtenant under this Sublease shall not deprive Sublandlord of any other
rights or remedies Sublandlord may have nor shall such application by Sublandlord
constitute a waiver by Sublandlord. All costs for the issuance (or reissuance) of
said Letter of Credit shall be paid by Subtenant. In the event of an assignment of
the tenant’s interest under the Prime Lease, Sublandlord shall have the right to
transfer the Letter of Credit to the assignee of such interest. Subtenant agrees to
look solely to such assignee for the return of the Letter of Credit and thereupon
Sublandlord shall be discharged from any further liability with respect thereto.

(b) The Letter of Credit shall contain a clause whereby the issuing bank agrees to
automatically extend the term of the Letter of Credit from year to year throughout
the Sublease Term unless, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date on which
the Letter of Credit would expire absent such extension, the issuing bank gives
notice to Sublandlord by hand delivery or nationally recognized overnight courier
with receipted delivery of non-extension. In the event of notice from the issuing
bank of non-extension, Subtenant shall, not later than five (5) business days prior
to the date on which the outstanding Letter of Credit shall expire without
extension, obtain and deliver to Sublandlord a replacement Letter of Credit.
Subtenant’s failure to do so prior to such five (5) business day period shall
constitute a Subtenant Event of Default hereunder.

(c) In the event of a material adverse change in the financial position of any bank
or institution which has issued the Letter of Credit or any replacement Letter of
Credit hereunder, Sublandlord reserves the right to require that Subtenant change
the issuing bank or institution to another bank or institution reasonably approved
by Sublandlord. If the bank or institution on which the original Letter of Credit
or any replacement Letter of Credit is drawn is declared insolvent or placed into
receivership, Subtenant shall, within five (5) business days thereafter, replace the
then-outstanding letter of credit with a like letter of credit from another bank or
institution acceptable to Sublandlord and Prime Landlord. Subtenant’s failure to do
so within such five (5) business day period shall constitute a Subtenant Event of
Default hereunder.

(d) The Letter of Credit shall remain in effect for ninety (90) days after the
scheduled expiration date of the Sublease Term. If Subtenant performs all of
Subtenant’s obligations hereunder, the Letter of Credit, or so much of the cash

 

 

proceeds thereof as has not theretofore been applied by Sublandlord, shall be
returned, without payment of interest or other increment for its use, to Subtenant
within thirty (30) days of the later of (i) the last day of the Sublease Term, (ii)
the date Subtenant vacated the Premises, or (iii) the date Subtenant has fulfilled
all its obligations hereunder. No trust relationship is created herein between
Sublandlord and Subtenant regarding the Letter of Credit or the proceeds therefrom.

(e) Provided that (i) at the time there is no outstanding and continuing Subtenant
Event of Default, (ii) there has been no prior draw or charge by Sublandlord against
either the Security Deposit or the Letter of Credit, and (iii) the Subtenant has
satisfied the Financial Condition as defined immediately below, then the amount of
the Security Deposit shall be reduced to the corresponding amounts set forth in the
table below on the corresponding dates. If Subtenant elects to provide a Letter of
Credit, then the Letter of Credit may provide for an automatic reduction in its
amount corresponding to the reduction in the Security Deposit, but occurring thirty
(30) days after the date of reduction of the Security Deposit, provided that if
conditions above are not satisfied on the relevant date for reduction of the
Security Deposit, then Sublandlord may draw against the Letter of Credit in order to
prevent the automatic reduction in its amount. The “Financial Condition” shall be
defined as the satisfaction of the following criteria as documented by Subtenant’s
updated financial statements delivered to Sublandlord and certified as accurate by
an officer of Subtenant or by its outside accountants: a tangible net worth equal to
or greater than the net worth of Subtenant in the financial statements delivered to
Sublandlord by Subtenant immediately prior to the date of this Sublease.

	 	4.	 	Additional Rent. Subtenant agrees to pay to Sublandlord, as
“Additional Rent” hereunder and without any deduction or setoff whatsoever,
100% of the amounts paid with respect to “Operating Costs” (as defined in the Prime
Lease) above the amounts paid for calendar year 2008, and 100% of the amounts paid with
respect to “Taxes” (as defined in the Prime Lease) above the amounts paid for fiscal
year 2008 (i.e. July 2007 through June 2008). Sublandlord shall provide Subtenant with
all documentation furnished to Sublandlord by Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease with
respect to Operating Costs and Taxes (the “Statement of Expenses”). Subtenant
shall make monthly payments to Sublandlord on account of Prime Landlord’s estimation of
amounts payable by Subtenant with respect to Operating Costs and Taxes in the same
manner and at the same time as Base Rent is paid hereunder. Subtenant may, within 90
days after receiving Sublandlord’s Statement of Expenses, give Sublandlord written
notice (“Review Notice”) that

 

 

	 	 	 	Subtenant intends to review Sublandlord’s records of the Expenses for that calendar
year. Within a reasonable time after receipt of the Review Notice, Sublandlord
shall make all pertinent records available for inspection that are reasonably
necessary for Subtenant to conduct its review. If any records are maintained at a
location other than the office of the Building, Subtenant may either inspect the
records at such other location or pay for the reasonable cost of copying and
shipping the records. Within 60 days after the records are made available to
Subtenant, Subtenant shall have the right to give Sublandlord written notice (an
“Objection Notice”) stating in reasonable detail any objection to Sublandlord’s
Statement of Expenses for that year. If Subtenant fails to give Sublandlord an
Objection Notice within the 60 day period or fails to provide Sublandlord with a
Review Notice within the 90 day period described above, Subtenant shall be deemed to
have approved Sublandlord’s Statement of Expenses and shall be barred from raising
any claims regarding the Expenses for that year. If Subtenant provides Sublandlord
with a timely Objection Notice, Sublandlord and Subtenant shall work together in
good faith to resolve any issues raised in Subtenant’s Objection Notice. If
Sublandlord and Subtenant determine that Expenses for the calendar year are less
than reported, Sublandlord shall provide Subtenant with a credit against the next
installment of Rent in the amount of the overpayment by Subtenant. The records
obtained by Subtenant shall be treated as confidential.
	 
	 	5.	 	Subtenant Obligations Under Prime Lease. During the Sublease Term,
Subtenant agrees to perform, fulfill, and observe all of the covenants, agreements,
obligations, conditions, representations, warranties, terms and provisions imposed upon
Sublandlord, as Tenant, under the Prime Lease, except for the covenants and agreements
of Sublandlord set forth therein with respect to the payment of “Base Rent”, “Taxes”
and “Operating Costs” (as such terms are defined in the Prime Lease) and other charges
payable from Sublandlord to Prime Landlord (unless incurred directly by Subtenant).
	 
	 	6.	 	Use. Subtenant shall use the Premises for (a) general office use, and
(b) (subject to compliance with applicable zoning, building code and environmental
regulations as provided in the Prime Lease) research and development activities related
to integrated circuits, electronic modules and test fixtures.
	 
	 	7.	 	Condition of Premises. Sublandlord shall deliver the Premises to
Subtenant free and clear of other tenants and personal property except as may be
otherwise agreed to by the parties, and in broom clean condition. Subtenant is
satisfied with the condition of the Premises, and hereby accepts the Premises in their
“AS IS” condition, in the same condition as they are in on the date hereof, reasonable
wear and tear excepted, without representations or warranties, express or implied, in
fact or by law, of any kind, without any recourse to Sublandlord. Sublandlord shall
have no obligation to repair, maintain or replace any portion of the Premises.

 

 

	 	8.	 	Utilities. Subtenant shall be responsible to pay the costs of all
utilities consumed at the Premises, including without limitation the costs of
electricity and telephone and internet services, directly to the applicable service
provider.
	 
	 	9.	 	Subordinate to Prime Lease. This Sublease and all of its terms,
covenants, representations, warranties, agreements and conditions are in all respects
subject and subordinate to the Prime Lease, which Prime Lease (in redacted form) is
attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein. Subtenant acknowledges
notice and full knowledge of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Prime
Lease. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Sublease and
the Prime Lease, Subtenant agrees that it shall be bound by the (i) any specific terms
of this Sublease which override the Prime Lease as incorporated herein, or (ii) the
terms of the Prime Lease for any matter which is not specified by this Sublease.
	 
	 	10.	 	Prime Lease. Subject to the extent of any specific and contrary terms
of this Sublease, the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease are hereby incorporated
by reference and made a part hereof, meaning that, as applicable, references to
“Tenant” therein shall be deemed to be “Subtenant” hereunder, references to “Landlord”
therein shall be deemed to be “Sublandlord” hereunder, and such other terms shall be
deemed modified as may be appropriate in the given context, provided (i) Prime Landlord
shall continue to have all rights set forth in the Prime Lease (notwithstanding the
fact that Sublandlord shall also have the same rights under this Sublease), and (ii)
Sublandlord shall not be deemed to have assumed any of the obligations of Prime
Landlord as a result of the incorporation of the Prime Lease. Capitalized terms which
are defined in the Prime Lease and are not otherwise defined herein shall have the same
meanings as in the Prime Lease. Except as expressly set forth in this Sublease,
Subtenant shall have no early termination option, option to expand the Premises, or any
right to extend the term of the Sublease notwithstanding Sections 4.1 and 29 of the
Prime Lease.
	 
	 	11.	 	Termination. This Sublease shall terminate upon the expiration or
termination of the Prime Lease for any reason whatsoever, without any liability
therefor on the part of Sublandlord to Subtenant with the same force and effect as if
the date of such termination had been provided expressly in this Sublease as the day of
the expiration hereof. Subtenant shall be released from all covenants, agreements,
obligations, conditions, representations, warranties, terms and provisions under the
Prime Lease upon termination of the Prime Lease as a result of a breach thereof by
Sublandlord unless such breach shall first arise as a result of a breach of Subtenant’s
obligations hereunder. Section 26 below sets forth specific provisions related to
termination of this Sublease by Sublandlord in the event of a casualty. Sublandlord
shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations under the
Prime Lease and not to cause a termination of the Prime Lease due to a breach of
Sublandlord (unless such breach shall first arise as a result of a breach of
Subtenant’s obligations hereunder), and (ii) not enter into a consensual agreement with
the Prime Landlord to terminate the Prime Lease prior to the Expiration Date without
the consent of Subtenant.

 

 

	 	12.	 	Services. Notwithstanding any provision of this Sublease to the
contrary, the only services and rights with respect to the Premises to which Subtenant
is entitled hereunder (other than those for which Prime Landlord and Subtenant contract
separately) are those to which Sublandlord is entitled under the Prime Lease, and for
all such services and rights, Subtenant will look solely through Sublandlord to Prime
Landlord under the Prime Lease. The failure of the Prime Landlord to perform its
obligations under the Prime Lease shall not be deemed a default by Sublandlord under
this Sublease and Subtenant shall not have the right to terminate this Sublease unless
Sublandlord elects to terminate the Prime Lease. Except to the extent due to the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Sublandlord, Sublandlord shall have no liability
for interruption of services provided to the Premises. Subtenant shall promptly pay
all costs charged by Prime Landlord to Subtenant for any services provided outside the
terms of the Prime Lease.
	 
	 	13.	 	Taxes. Subtenant shall be solely responsible for the payment prior to
delinquency of all personal property taxes, assessments and other similar fees or
charges attributable to Subtenant’s equipment, trade fixtures, inventory, fixtures and
personal property located on or in the Premises.
	 
	 	14.	 	Insurance. Subtenant shall, throughout the Sublease Term, at its own
expense, keep and maintain in full force and effect the insurance required under
Section 9.1 of the Prime Lease and otherwise in accordance with the terms thereof. In
addition, Subtenant shall name Sublandlord and Prime Landlord as additional insureds on
all liability policies carried by Subtenant. On or before the time Subtenant’s or any
of Subtenant’s agents, employees and/or contractors (collectively, “Subtenant
Parties”) shall first enter the Premises and thereafter not less than fifteen (15)
days prior to the expiration date of each expiring policy, Subtenant shall deliver to
Sublandlord either original copies of each of the policies required to be carried by
Subtenant hereunder issued by the respective insurers, or binders thereof setting forth
in full the provisions thereof (including without limitation the additional insured and
waiver of subrogation endorsements) and issued by such insurers together with evidence
satisfactory to Sublandlord of the payment of all annual premiums for such policies,
and upon request of Sublandlord, Subtenant shall deliver to Prime Landlord original
copies of Subtenant’s insurance policies or binders thereof.
	 
	 	15.	 	Release; Waivers of Subrogation. Sublandlord and Subtenant each hereby
waives on behalf of itself and its property insurers (none of which shall ever be
assigned any such claim or be entitled thereto due to subrogation or otherwise) any and
all rights of recovery, claim, action, or cause of action against the other, its
agents, officers, servants, partners, shareholders, or employees for any loss or damage
that may occur to the Premises or any improvements thereto, or any personal property of
such party therein, by reason of fire, the elements, or any other cause of origin,
which is insured against under any property insurance policy actually being maintained
from time to time, even if not required hereunder, or which would be insured against
under the terms of any insurance policy required to be

 

 

	 	 	 	carried or maintained hereunder, whether or not such insurance coverage is actually
being maintained and regardless of the cause or origin, including, in every
instance, negligence by the other party hereto, its agents, officers, partners or
employees. Sublandlord and Subtenant each agrees to cause appropriate clauses to be
included in their property insurance policies necessary to implement the foregoing
provisions.
	 
	 	16.	 	Enforcement of Prime Lease. Sublandlord hereby agrees that if
Subtenant shall give Sublandlord a written notice claiming that Prime Landlord is not
performing, fulfilling or observing Prime Landlord’s covenants, agreements and
obligations contained in the Prime Lease, setting forth with reasonable specification
and detail the nature of such non-performance, and requesting Sublandlord to seek
performance by Prime Landlord, Sublandlord will, with reasonable promptness, request
Prime Landlord to so perform, fulfill or observe Prime Landlord’s covenants, agreements
and obligations contained in the Prime Lease. Sublandlord shall, to the extent
necessary but at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, institute an action to compel such
performance, but shall not be liable to Subtenant for any continued failure by Prime
Landlord to perform or observe its covenants, agreements and obligations contained in
the Prime Lease.
	 
	 	17.	 	Payments by Sublandlord. Subtenant shall not be entitled to any
payment from Sublandlord under this Sublease unless a similar payment of equal amount
is made by Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease to Sublandlord. Subtenant shall not be
entitled to any deduction under this Sublease from Rent herein unless and until a
similar deduction in equal amount is allowed and made under the Prime Lease by Prime
Landlord to Sublandlord.
	 
	 	18.	 	Limitation of Sublandlord’s Liability. Without limiting the generality
or application of Section 15 hereof, Subtenant agrees for itself and each succeeding
holder of the Subtenant’s interest hereunder, or any portion thereof, that any
judgment, decree, or award obtained against Sublandlord or any succeeding owner of
Sublandlord’s interest in this Sublease, whether at law or in equity, shall be
satisfied out of Sublandlord’s assets only, and further agrees to look only to such
assets for satisfaction, and in no event shall any trustee, partner, officer, director,
employee, shareholder or agent of Sublandlord have any liability with respect to any
such claim.
	 
	 	19.	 	Compliance with Insurance. Subtenant shall not do, or suffer to be
done, or keep, or suffer to be kept, or omit to do, in, upon or about the Premises,
anything which may prevent or limit Sublandlord’s ability to obtain any insurance on
the Premises or which may make void or voidable such insurance. If anything should be
kept upon or omitted to be done, in, upon or about the Premises which shall create any
extra premium for or increase in the rate of any such insurance, Subtenant will pay the
increased cost of the same to Sublandlord upon demand.
	 
	 	20.	 	Default Under Sublease or Prime Lease. (a) The occurrence of any one
or more of the following events shall constitute a “Subtenant Event of Default”
hereunder:

 

 

(i) the failure by Subtenant to make any payment of Rent, as and when due (for the
first instance of a Subtenant Event of Default for late payments under this Clause
(i) of Section 20(a) within any twelve (12) month period a Subtenant Event of
Default will not be deemed to occur if Subtenant pays the overdue payment within
three (3) days of written notice from Sublandlord that such payment is overdue (no
notice shall be required for the second and subsequent late payments within any
twelve (12) month period)); (ii) if Subtenant shall fail to maintain any insurance
required hereunder; (iii) if Subtenant shall fail to restore the Security Deposit to
its original amount or deliver a replacement Letter of Credit as required under
Section 3 above; (iv) if Subtenant shall fail to observe or perform any of the
covenants or provisions of this Sublease to be observed or performed by Subtenant,
other than as specified above, and such failure continues for more than fifteen (15)
days after notice thereof from Sublandlord; provided, further, that if the nature of
Subtenant’s default is such that more than fifteen (15) days are reasonably required
for its cure, then no Subtenant Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred if
Subtenant shall commence such cure within said fifteen (15) day period and
thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion provided the default is
cured no later than forty-five (45) days from the date of such notice from
Sublandlord.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Subtenant Event of Default, Sublandlord may either (i)
cure such default (and shall be entitled to full reimbursement from Subtenant of its
reasonable costs incurred in connection therewith together with interest at the
default rate of interest specified in Section 22.4 of the Prime Lease, payable
within ten (10) days of receipt of an invoice therefor), or (ii) elect to terminate
this Sublease by written notice to Subtenant and thereupon (and without prejudice to
any remedies which might otherwise be available for arrears of Rent or preceding
breach of covenant or agreement, including without limitation all rights and
remedies against Subtenant in the case of a Subtenant Event of Default provided to
Prime Landlord in the Prime Lease in the case of a default by the “Tenant”
thereunder, and without prejudice to Subtenant’s liability for damages as
hereinafter stated), this Sublease shall terminate as of the date specified therein
as though that were the Expiration Date. Without being taken or deemed to be guilty
of any manner of trespass or conversion, and without being liable to indictment,
prosecution or damages therefor, Sublandlord may, forcibly if necessary, enter into
and upon the Premises (or any part thereof in the name of the whole); repossess the
same, as of its former estate; remove Subtenant’s property; and expel Subtenant and
those claiming under Subtenant; and Subtenant hereby waives the service of notice of
intention to re-enter or to institute legal proceedings to that end. The words
“re-entry” and “re-enter” as used in the Lease are not restricted to their technical
legal meanings.

(c) In the case of termination of this Sublease in according with Section 20(b)
above, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord Rent up to the time of such termination,
shall continue to be liable for any preceding breach of covenant, and in addition,
shall pay to Sublandlord as damages, the amount of the aggregate of Rent over the
period commencing with such termination and ending on the

 

 

Expiration Date, together with such reasonable expenses as Sublandlord may incur for
legal expenses, attorneys’ fees, brokerage and/or putting the Premises in good
order, or for preparing the same for re-rental. Sublandlord, at its option, may
make alterations, repairs, or replacements in the Premises as Sublandlord deems
reasonably necessary in order to re-sublet the Premises. Subtenant hereby expressly
waives any and all rights of redemption in the event Subtenant is evicted or
dispossessed.

(d) The specified remedies to which Sublandlord may resort hereunder are cumulative
and are not intended to be exclusive of any remedies or means of redress to which
Sublandlord may at any time be lawfully entitled, and Sublandlord may invoke any
remedy (including the remedy of specific performance) allowed at law or in equity as
if specific remedies were not herein provided for.

(e) Subtenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Subtenant to Sublandlord of
Rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Sublandlord to incur costs not
contemplated by this Sublease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult
to ascertain. Accordingly, if Sublandlord has not received when due any installment
of Rent, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord a late charge equal to five-hundred
dollars ($500.00) for each and every late payment. The parties hereby agree that
such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost Sublandlord
will incur by reason of late payment by Subtenant. In addition, any installment of
Rent not paid within thirty (30) days of when due hereunder shall bear interest from
the due date of such installment to the date paid in full at the default rate of
interest specified in Section 22.4 of the Prime Lease. Acceptance of such late
charge or default interest, or both, by Sublandlord shall in no event constitute a
waiver of Subtenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent
Sublandlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.

	 	21.	 	Alterations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the
Prime Lease, Subtenant shall not make any alterations or modifications to the Premises
without the prior written consent of Sublandlord, which consent may be given or
withheld in Sublandlord’s sole discretion. Any alterations permitted hereunder shall
be made at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, subject to the terms and conditions
applicable to the making of alterations to the Premises set forth in the Prime Lease,
including without limitation the insurance required under Article 13 of the Prime
Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that Prime Landlord consents, and
provided that Subtenant provides reasonable assurance that the Premises will be
restored as required by the Prime Lease at the end of the Sublease Term (including
without limitation that payment of a reasonable additional security deposit to
Sublandlord), then Sublandlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any
alterations proposed by Subtenant.
	 
	 	22.	 	Signs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Prime
Lease, Subtenant may not place any signs on the exterior of the Premises or any window

 

 

	 	 	 	or door signs without Prime Landlord’s and Sublandlord’s prior written consent,
which consent with respect to Sublandlord, not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed.

	 	23.	 	Bankruptcy — Receivership. Subtenant agrees that if Subtenant shall
make any assignments for the benefit of creditors or shall be adjudged bankrupt, or if
a receiver is appointed for Subtenant, its assets, or Subtenant’s interest under this
Sublease, and if the appointment of such receiver, if involuntary, is not vacated
within thirty (30) days, or if Subtenant shall file or have filed against it a petition
under any of the provisions of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code or any amendment thereof, and
such petition, if involuntary, is not vacated within thirty (30) days, then Sublandlord
may, upon giving Subtenant ten (10) days’ notice, terminate this Sublease.
	 
	 	24.	 	Transfer of Interest. Notwithstanding anything in the Prime Lease to
the contrary, Subtenant shall not assign, sublet, mortgage, license, transfer or
encumber this Sublease or the Premises, nor permit the Premises to be occupied by any
person other than Subtenant in whole or in part whether by changes in the ownership or
control of Subtenant, or any direct or indirect owner of Subtenant, whether at one time
or at intervals, by sale or transfer of stock, partnership or beneficial interests,
operation of law or otherwise, nor permit the Premises to be occupied by any person
other than Subtenant (each of the foregoing, a “Transfer”) without (i) the
prior written consent of Sublandlord, and (ii) the consent of Prime Landlord if
required by the Prime Lease. Sublandlord’s approval of any proposed Transfer shall be
governed by the provisions of Article 18 of the Prime Lease as incorporated under
Section 10 above.
	 
	 	 	 	Permitted Tenant Transfers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the issuance or
trading of Subtenant’s stock which is listed on a domestic national securities
exchange is permitted without Sublandlord’s consent and shall not be deemed an
assignment of this Sublease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subtenant may, without
the need for Sublandlord’s consent, but only upon not less than ten (10) days prior
notice to Sublandlord, assign its interest in this Sublease (a “Permitted
Assignment”) to (i) any entity which shall be a successor to Subtenant either by
merger or consolidation (a “Merger”) or to a purchaser of all or
substantially all of Subtenant’s assets in either case provided the successor or
purchaser shall have a tangible net worth, after giving effect to the transaction,
of not less than the greater of the net worth of Subtenant named in Section 1.1 as
of the Date of this Sublease or the net worth of Subtenant named in Section 1.1
immediately prior to such Merger or sale (the “Required Net Worth”) or (ii)
any entity (an “Affiliate”‘) which is a direct or indirect subsidiary or
parent (or a direct or indirect subsidiary of a parent) of the named Subtenant set
forth in Section 1.1, in either case of (i) or (ii) only so long as (I) the
principal purpose of such assignment is not the acquisition of Subtenant’s interest
in this Sublease (except if such assignment is made for a valid intracorporate
business purpose to an Affiliate) and is not made to circumvent the provisions of
this paragraph, (II) if such assignment is structured as multiple transactions, then
it must also qualify as a Permitted

 

 

	 	 	 	Assignment if the transaction were structured as a direct assignment from the
original Subtenant named in Section 1.1 to the final resulting successor Subtenant,
(III) except if pursuant to a Merger permitted by clause (i) above, Subtenant shall,
contemporaneously with such assignment, provide Sublandlord with a fully executed
counterpart of any such assignment, which assignment shall comply with the
provisions of this paragraph and shall include an agreement by the assignee in form
reasonably satisfactory to Sublandlord, to assume all of Subtenant’s obligations
under this Sublease and be bound by all of the terms of this Sublease, (IV) in the
case of an actual or deemed assignment pursuant to clause (i), Subtenant shall
provide Sublandlord, not less than ten (10) days in advance of any such assignment,
evidence reasonably satisfactory to Sublandlord of the Required Net Worth of the
successor or purchaser, and (V) there shall not be a Subtenant Event of Default at
the effective date of such assignment. Subtenant shall also be permitted, without
the need for Sublandlord’s consent, but only upon not less than ten (10) days prior
notice to Sublandlord, to enter into any sublease (a “Permitted Sublease”)
with any Affiliate provided that such sublease shall expire upon any event pursuant
to which the sublessee thereunder shall cease to be an Affiliate. Any assignment to
an Affiliate shall provide that it may, at Sublandlord’s election, be terminated and
deemed void if during the term of this Sublease such assignee or any successor to
the interest of Subtenant hereunder shall cease to be an Affiliate.
	 
	 	25.	 	Compliance with Law. Subtenant shall comply with all statutes,
ordinances, rules, orders, regulations or requirements, including environmental
regulations, which must be complied with due to Subtenant’s operations or use of the
Premises.
	 
	 	26.	 	Casualty and Condemnation. Notwithstanding any obligation Sublandlord
may have to rebuild or restore the Premises under the Prime Lease, it is specifically
understood and agreed that Sublandlord shall have no obligation to Subtenant to repair
or restore the Premises, whether in the event of fire or other casualty or otherwise,
and Sublandlord shall have no obligation to Subtenant if all or part of the Premises
are taken in condemnation proceedings or by any right of eminent domain. In the event
of a casualty or condemnation, the Sublandlord specifically reserves its right to elect
to terminate the Prime Lease pursuant to Sections 16.2(b) or 17(a) of the Prime Lease,
respectively which may be exercised or waived in its sole discretion. If and to the
extent Sublandlord receives an abatement of rent pursuant to the Prime Lease due to a
casualty or condemnation, then Subtenant shall receive an equivalent and proportional
abatement of rent under this Sublease (for example, if 50% of the per diem rent under
the Prime Lease is abated for 30 days due to a casualty, then 50% of the per diem rent
under this Sublease shall be abated for 30 days).
	 
	 	27.	 	Personal Property. All furnishings, fixtures, equipment, effects and
property of every kind, nature and description of Subtenant and of all persons claiming
by, through or under Subtenant which, during the Sublease Term or any occupancy of

 

 

	 	 	 	the Premises by Subtenant or anyone claiming under Subtenant, may be on the
Premises, shall be at the sole risk and hazard of Subtenant.
	 
	 	28.	 	Indemnification.

(a) To fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Subtenant hereby agrees to
defend, indemnify and hold harmless Sublandlord and its employees, agents,
contractors, guests, licensees or invitees (the “Sublandlord
Indemnitees”‘)
from and against all Claims of any nature whatsoever arising out of (i) the injury
to or death of any person or damage to property, in, upon, or at the Premises, (ii)
the injury to or death of any person or damage to property, to the extent caused by
the acts or omissions of Subtenant, its employees, agents, contractors, guests,
licensees or invitees during the Sublease Term; and (iii) the breach by Subtenant of
any of its covenants hereunder.

(b) Subject to the overriding provisions of the waiver of subrogation in Section 15
hereof, Sublandlord hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Subtenant
and its employees, agents, contractors, guests, licensees or invitees (the
“Subtenant Indemnitees”) from and against all Claims of any nature
whatsoever arising out of the injury to or death of any person or damage to property
on or about the Premises or the Building, to the extent caused by the acts or
omissions of Sublandlord, its employees, agents, contractors, guests, licensees or
invitees during the Sublease Term.

(c) To fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and notwithstanding any other
provision of this Sublease or the Prime Lease to the contrary, Sublandlord shall not
be liable for any injury or damage to persons or property for such persons resulting
from (i) steam, gas, electricity, water, rain, snow or leaks from any part of the
Premises, (ii) pipes, appliances, plumbing works, roof, street, or sub-surface, or
(iii) any other cause of any nature, unless, subject to Section 15 hereof, caused by
the negligence of Sublandlord, its agents, servants or employees; provided
that in no event shall Sublandlord be liable for consequential or indirect
damages.

	 	29.	 	Sublandlord Access. Subtenant shall, upon as much advance notice as is
practical under the circumstances (except that no notice shall be required in emergency
situations), permit Sublandlord and Prime Landlord and their agents, employees and
contractors, to have free and unrestricted access to and to enter upon the Premises at
all reasonable hours for the purposes of inspection, making repairs, replacements or
improvements in or to the Premises, or exercising any right reserved to Sublandlord
hereunder or to Prime Landlord by the Prime Lease. Except in the event of an
emergency, Sublandlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any

     1.2 Conflict. If there is a conflict between this summary and the rest of this Lease,
the rest of this Lease will control.

2. CONSTRUCTION OF PREMISES.

     Landlord will diligently perform “Landlord’s Work” and Tenant will diligently perform
“Tenant’s Work” (if any) as described in the Workletter attached as Exhibit “F” in accordance with
the Workletter and the rest of this Lease. Landlord’s Work will be deemed substantially completed
even if Landlord has not completed “punch list” or other minor items, as long as (i) Landlord
agrees to use reasonable efforts to complete these items within thirty (30) days of signing the
punch-list, excluding any items which require special materials or equipment that are unavailable;
and (ii) the punch-list items can be completed after Tenant’s occupancy without causing substantial
interference with Tenant’s use of the Premises. Tenant’s final punch list will be submitted to
Landlord with in fifteen (15) days after Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord’s Work is
substantially completed. Substantial completion of Landlord’s Work will be deemed to have occurred
on the earlier of: the date as of which Landlord’s architect certifies in good faith that
Landlord’s Work has been substantially completed in substantial conformance with the plans and
specifications therefore (or the date as of which such substantial completion would have occurred
but for any delays or Tenant’s Work for which Tenant is responsible); or the date that the
applicable governmental authorities issue a temporary or final certificate of occupancy for the
Premises (or the date as of which such a certificate of occupancy reasonable could have been issued
but for any delays or Tenant’s Work for which Tenant is responsible).

     If and as long as Tenant does not interfere in any way with the construction process (by
causing disharmony, scheduling or coordinating difficulties, etc.) Tenant, may, at Tenant’s sole
risk and expense, enter the Premises 30 days prior to the substantial completion of Landlord’s Work
(“Early Access Period”) for the purposes of installing Tenant’s decorations, movable furniture and
business fixtures. The determination of such interference by Landlord shall be conclusive. The
Early Access Period shall commence upon Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notice of same.

     For the time period commencing on the date that Landlord’s Work is substantially complete and
ending on the date that is ten days after such substantial completion (the “Fixture Period”),
Tenant shall have the right to access the Premises for the purposes of installing its furniture,
fixtures, audio/visual, security, and other equipment

     Any access by Tenant prior to the Lease Commencement Date shall be subject to all the terms
and conditions of this Lease, except that Tenant shall not be obligated to pay rent during the
Fixture Period.

3. POSSESSION AND SURRENDER OF PREMISES.

     On the Expiration Date or upon any earlier termination of this lease, Tenant shall quit and
surrender the Premises to Landlord “broom-clean” and in good order, condition and repair, except
for ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire or other casualty not caused by the Tenant or those
for whom the Tenant is responsible.

 

 

     Tenant shall remove all of its signs, movable trade fixtures and equipment, inventory and
other personal property, whether owned by Tenant or its Affiliates (“Tenant’s Property”). Tenant’s
Property remaining after termination will be deemed abandoned and Landlord may keep, sell, destroy
or dispose of it without incurring any Liabilities to Tenant or its Affiliates. Tenant shall not
be required to remove data and telephone cables after the expiration or termination of this Lease.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Tenant will not remove items that are attached to the
Premises or areas of the Building or the realty in such a manner that they are deemed to be
“fixtures” (other than trade fixtures) under applicable Laws or that are attached in such a manner
that their removal would cause substantial damage to or adversely affect the proper and continuing
functioning of the Building or its Systems or Equipment.

4. TERM.

     The term of this Lease is as set forth in Section 1.1(d). A “Lease Year” is a period of
twelve (12) consecutive calendar months during the Lease term, starting with the Commencement Date.
However, the first Lease Year is the first twelve (12) full calendar months plus the partial month
(if any) after the Commencement Date if the Commencement Date is not the first day of the month,
and the last Lease Year may be less than twelve (12) months if the expiration or termination date
of this Lease is not the last day of a Lease Year.

     4.1 EXTENSION OF TERM.

     The Term of this Lease may be extended, at the option of Tenant, for one (1) period of five
(5) years, such period being herein sometimes referred to as an “Extended Term,” as follows:

     (a) Such option to extend shall be exercised by Tenant by giving written notice to
Landlord not less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term of this
Lease, or any Extended Term.

     (b) The Extended Term shall be on the same terms, covenants, and conditions of this
Lease, except for the payment of rent during the Extended Term. The Tenant shall have no
further right to extend this Lease beyond the Extended Term. Any early termination of this
Lease during the Term of this Lease or the Extended Term shall terminate all rights
hereunder.

     (c) The Base Rent during the Extended Term shall be at 95% of the fair market value of
the Premises. The fair market value shall be the then current rental value for comparable
property within the vicinity of the Premises taking into consideration improvement
allowances, brokerage commissions, rent concessions and other rent inducements offered for
such comparable properties. Landlord shall advise Tenant, within Thirty (30) days of
receiving the Tenant’s notice that it wishes to exercise its option to extend, of the Base
Rent at which it is prepared to offer the Premises to Tenant for the Extended Term. Within
10 days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s offer, Tenant may rescind its renewal election and
allow the lease to expire as scheduled by written notice to Landlord. In the event that
Tenant does not exercise it’s right to rescind within such 10 day period and the parties are
not able to agree on the fair market value within

 

 

one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the expiration date of the Term, then either
party may elect, by written notice to the other party, to cause said rental, including
subsequent adjustments, to be determined as follows: Within ten (10) days following receipt
of such election, the parties shall attempt to agree on an independent broker to determine
the fair market rental. If the parties are unable to agree in that time, then each party
shall designate a broker within ten (10) days thereafter. Should either party fail to so
designate a broker within that time, then the broker designated by the other party shall
determine the fair rental value for a renewing tenant. Any broker designated hereunder
shall have not less than five (5) years experience in the valuation of commercial office
buildings in Middlesex County, Massachusetts. Within thirty (30) days following the
selection of the brokers), such broker(s) shall determine the fair market rental value,
including subsequent adjustments of the Premises. The fees of each broker shall be paid by
the party appointing such broker unless only one broker is appointed in which event the fee
shall be shared equally by both parties. The fair market rental shall be the arithmetic
average of the values determined by the two (2) brokers provided the higher of two (2)
determinations does not exceed the lower by more than five percent (5%) with respect to
either the basic rent or subsequent adjustments. In the event either the initial basic rent
or subsequent adjustments determined by such brokers differ by more than five percent (5%)
those two (2) brokers shall select a third (3rd) broker who shall determine the fair market
rent in the same manner as the initial two (2) brokers. In the event that the two (2)
brokers cannot agree on the third (3ri) broker, they shall request that the Greater Boston
Real Estate Board appoint the third (3rd) broker. In such event, the two (2) closest
determinations of the three brokers shall be averaged and the other broker’s determination
shall be disregarded. If a third (3rd) broker is required, the fee of the third (3rd)
broker shall be shared equally by both parties. Within twenty (20) days after the
determination of the fair market rental, Landlord shall prepare a reasonably appropriate
amendment to this Lease for the extension period. Should the fair market rental not be
established by the commencement of the extension period, then Tenant shall continue paying
rent at the rate in effect during the last month of the initial Term, and a lump sum
adjustment shall be made promptly upon the determination of such new rental. In addition to
the Base Rent provided above, Tenant shall and hereby agrees to continue to pay to Landlord
rent adjustments and additional rent due pursuant to this Lease.

     (d) It shall be a condition of Tenant’s right to exercise its option to extend the Term
of this Lease that Tenant is not in default of its obligations under any of the terms,
covenants, or conditions of this Lease at the time it notifies Landlord of the exercise of
its option to extend the Term of this Lease and upon the effective date of such option.

     (e) In the event Tenant exercises its option under this Article, Tenant and Landlord
agree in each such case to use best efforts to enter into a Lease amendment setting forth
the terms of such option within thirty (30) days of date the rent is determined. Failure to
execute the Lease amendment shall not void the exercise of the option.

 

 

5. RENT.

     Tenant will pay the base rent as shown in Exhibit C in equal monthly installments in advance
beginning as of the Rent Commencement Date and thereafter on the first day of each month during the
Term, prorated for any portion of a month. The term “rent” includes base rent, additional rent and
all other amounts to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, whether or not specifically described as
rent. All rent will be paid to Landlord without demand, deduction, counterclaim or offset of any

     From time to time, Landlord may determine that certain costs otherwise included within the
definition of Operating Costs more properly relate solely or primarily to less than all of the
Buildings in the Project (as a hypothetical example, elevator maintenance for elevators serving
only the Building). If Landlord so elects, these costs will be deducted from Operating Costs and
allocated only to tenants of the applicable Building(s), Tenant’s share of these costs will be
calculated by dividing Tenant’s rentable square footage by the rentable square footage leased to
all tenants in the applicable Building(s) and otherwise Tenant will pay its share of these costs in

 

 

the manner described in Section 6.1. Operating Costs shall not include any capital
expenditure (including, without limitation, costs of repairs, alterations, additions, changes and
other items which under generally acceptable accounting principles are properly classified as
capital expenditures if they upgrade the building) otherwise includable in Operating Costs for the
year in which it was made, they shall nevertheless be included in such Operating Costs for such
year and subsequent lease years an amount equal to the original expenditure divided by the number
of years of useful life thereof.

     7.4 Determining Operating Costs.

     Operating Cost figures for both the base year and each year thereafter shall be calculated and
adjusted to reflect a 95% occupied building.

8. MONTHLY PAYMENT OF TAXES AND OPERATING COSTS.

     At any time and from time to time, and subject to later changes, Landlord may elect to have
Tenant pay Tenant’s share of Taxes and Operating Costs (or either of them) in monthly installments
in advance on the first of each month, based on amounts reasonably estimated by Landlord (as
revised from time to time). If these estimated monthly payments are required, after the end of
each tax fiscal year, Lease Year or other relevant periods selected by Landlord, Landlord will
deliver to Tenant a detailed statement of the actual Operating Costs and Taxes incurred during such
period and the amounts, if any, due for the period. Any additional amounts due from Tenant will be
payable as additional rent within thirty (30) days after delivery of Landlord’s statement, and any
overpayment by Tenant will be promptly refunded by Landlord or, at Landlord’s option, deducted from
the next monthly installments of rent due from Tenant. At any time or from time to time, Landlord
may deliver a bill to Tenant for Tenant’s share of Taxes and/or Operating Costs (or specified
portions thereof) for a particular period, and Tenant will pay the amount due to Landlord as
additional rent within thirty (30) days after delivery of Landlord’s bill. Tenant will receive a
credit for any estimated monthly payments or other payments for such charges already paid by Tenant
for the period covered by that bill. Tenant shall have the right, on written notice to Landlord
delivered to Landlord no later than one hundred eighty (180) days following Tenant’s receipt from
Landlord of the year-end statement for Operating Costs or Taxes to have Landlord’s books and
records relating to such costs for that year audited by an independent certified public accounting
firm who is not compensated on a contingency basis. All books and records necessary to accomplish
any audit permitted under this Section 8 shall be retained for a sufficient time to allow the audit
to take place, and shall be made available to the person conducting the audit at the office that
Landlord regularly maintains such books and records. Tenant shall pay for its costs of the audit,
unless it is finally determined (either by the audit, or in the case of a dispute by arbitration)
that Tenant’s share of Operating Costs or Taxes were overstated in the year audited by an amount in
excess of 5% of the total operating expenses, in which case Landlord shall pay or reimburse Tenant
for the reasonable costs of the audit, which cost shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the amount
of overstatement determined in accordance with this section. Landlord’s and Tenant’s rights and
obligations under this Section 8 shall survive the end of the Term. Tenant’s right to have
Landlord’s books and records relating to Operating Costs and Taxes audited shall be deemed forever
waived and Landlord’s year-end statement shall be deemed conclusively correct as to both Landlord
and Tenant if Tenant does not give Landlord written notice of the exercise of such audit rights
within

 

 

the one hundred eighty (180) day period described above. In the event of a dispute as to the
findings of Tenant’s audit, it shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the American
Arbitration Association or such other organization mutually agreed to by the parties. Tenant
agrees to keep strictly confidential the results of such audit and any claims, negotiations,
proceedings or settlements with Landlord in connection therewith or in connection with Operating
Costs, and shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the same requirements.

13. ALTERATIONS.

     13.1 Landlord’s Consent.

     “Alterations” means Tenant’s alterations, additions, improvements, remodeling, repainting,
decorations (other than normal suite decorations) or other changes. Provided that Tenant is not in
default (and has not committed an act or omission that with the passage of time or the giving of

Article and the rest of this Lease and the Alterations do not: affect the windows, the exterior of
the Building, or any portion of the Building or the rest of the Project outside of the Premises;

applicable Laws; or, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, cost more than a total of Ten Dollars
($10.00) per square foot of agreed rentable area in the Premises in any Lease Year when combined
with the cost of other Alterations made in that Lease Year. For any alteration that does not
require the Landlord’s consent, the Tenant shall provide the Landlord with a description of the
alteration as well as any plans which relate to the alteration, including but not limited to any
change in the floor plans. All other Alterations require Landlord’s prior written consent Whether
or not Landlord’s consent is required, Alterations are subject to the rest of this Article.

     Landlord hereby consents to the Alterations shown on the space plan attached to the Workletter
as Exhibit F.

     13.2 Notice.

     Tenant will notify Landlord not less than fifteen (15) days before beginning any Alterations.
Together with Tenant’s notice, Tenant will give Landlord copies of the necessary permits and
approvals and, if Landlord deems it necessary, detailed plans and specifications for the
Alterations (but not for minor, non-structural Alterations such as wall coverings, wall hangings,
built-in cabinetry, movable partitions and painting). Landlord’s review or approval of Tenant’s
plans and specifications is solely for Landlord’s benefit and will not be considered a
representation or warranty to Tenant as to safety, adequacy, efficiency, compliance with Laws or
any other matter, or a waiver of any of Tenant’s obligations. All items of Tenant’s Property,
trade fixtures and non-structural alterations, additions, installations or improvements shall be
and remain the property of Tenant and may be removed prior to the termination of this Lease,
provided, however, that any injury or damage to the Premises or Building resulting from such
removal shall be repaired promptly by and at the expense of Tenant. All other Alterations will be

end of this Lease, unless otherwise requested by Landlord coincident with Landlord’s consent to the
Alterations.

     13.3 Compliance with Laws.

 

 

     Alterations will comply in all material respects with this Lease, the final plans and
specifications approved by Landlord in writing (if applicable), and applicable Laws and insurance
requirements. Alterations will be done in a first-class manner, using first quality or building
standard materials, and so as not to interfere in any way with or impose Liabilities on Landlord or
any other tenant in the Project. Alterations will be performed only by experienced, licensed and
bonded contractors and subcontractors approved in writing by Landlord, which approval will not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant will cause its contractors and subcontractors to carry
commercial general liability insurance with the same attributes and subject to the same
requirements as those set forth in Section 9.1(a)(i), in the amount of at least One Million Dollars
($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence (subject to reasonable increase during the
term at Landlord’s request), naming Landlord and its designees as additional insureds, and
workmen’s compensation insurance in statutory limits.

claimed to be furnished for Tenant or Tenant’s Affiliates or for their benefit. If the Tenant
contests a claim it shall promptly, within fourteen (14) days of the lien being filed, remove any
lien filed against the property. Tenant will keep the Project (and the fixtures therein and title
thereto) and Landlord’s personal property free from all claims, liens, security interests and
encumbrances resulting from Tenant’s acts, omissions, agreements, and all claims for labor,
materials or services claimed to have been furnished for Tenant or Tenant’s Affiliates or for their
benefit, excluding liens which result for work the Landlord is responsible for the payment of
(collectively, “Liens”). Tenant will indemnify Landlord and its Affiliates for, and hold them
harmless from, Liabilities incurred by them in connection with Tenant’s Alterations and all Liens
(including, without limitation, the removal of any Liens and any related actions or proceedings).
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN TO ALL PERSONS FURNISHING LABOR OR MATERIALS TO TENANT THAT NO MECHANICS’,
MATERIALMENS’ OR OTHER LIENS SOUGHT ON THE PREMISES OR THE PROJECT OR TITLE THERETO WILL IN ANY
MANNER AFFECT LANDLORD’S RIGHT, TITLE OR INTEREST.

     13.5 Labor Harmony.

     Tenant will not, directly or indirectly, knowingly employ or permit the employment of any
contractor, shipper, mechanic or laborer or permit any items or materials to be brought into the
Premises or the rest of the Project, if it would create any work slow down, sabotage, strike,
wild-cat strike, picketing or jurisdictional dispute, or would in any way disturb the peaceful and
harmonious operation, management, maintenance, cleaning, security or improvement of the Project or
any part thereof (in any case, a “Labor/Disturbance Incident”). Tenant will be solely responsible
for all Liabilities resulting from any such Labor/Disturbance Incident, and, without limiting any
other rights and remedies of Landlord, upon demand of Landlord Tenant at its cost immediately will
cause all contractors, shippers, mechanics, laborers, items or materials that are the subject or
cause of such Labor/Disturbance Incident to be removed from the Project

14. INDEMNITY: SATISFACTION OF REMEDIES.

     14.1 Indemnification.

 

 

     In addition to any other indemnities in this Lease, Tenant will indemnify Landlord for and
hold Landlord harmless from Liabilities arising from or in connection with: acts or omissions of
Tenant or its Affiliates or the conduct of Tenant’s business; Tenant’s breach of or default under
this Lease; claims made by Tenant’s Affiliates against Landlord if Tenant has waived those claims
in this Lease or Landlord would not be responsible to Tenant for such claims if such claims were
made by Tenant in accordance with this Lease; and claims by Tenant’s Affiliates or other persons if
Landlord declines to consent to any act, event or document requiring Landlord’s consent under this
Lease (although, subject to the terms of this Lease, this will not prevent Tenant from making its
own claim solely for its own benefit and on its own behalf if Landlord declines to consent where
Landlord is required to consent under the terms of this Lease).

     14.2 Damage to Persons or Property.

     Subject to the rest of this Section and the rest of this Lease, Landlord will be liable for
damages if and to the extent caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct in breach of this
Lease, but Landlord will not be liable for any special, indirect, consequential, punitive or
similar damages (including, without limitation, any loss of use or revenue by Tenant or any other
person) under any circumstances, or for any Liabilities arising from or in connection with: acts or
omissions of Tenant, any other tenants of the Project, any third parties, including, without
limitation, burglary, vandalism, theft, or other criminal or illegal activity; war, terrorism,
riot, force majeure, civil disturbance or executive or governmental or quasi-governmental order or
directive; explosion, fire, steam, electricity, gas, mud, snow, hail, ice, water, rain, seepage,
leakage, condensation, flood, wind, lightning, or otherwise by reason of the elements; pollution,
contamination, mold, hazardous substances, motor vehicles or any casualties; breakage, cracking,
leakage, malfunction, obstruction or other defects in Systems and Equipment or the roof, walls,
floors, surfaces or structure, or of any services or utilities; any work, demolition, maintenance
or repairs permitted under this Lease; any exercise of Landlord’s rights under any Laws or under
this Lease, including any lawful entry by Landlord or its Affiliates on the Premises in accordance
with this Lease; or any of the matters described in Section 24.2. To the extent allowable by law,
Tenant and Tenant’s Affiliates assume the risk of all of these Liabilities and waive all claims
against Landlord in connection therewith. Tenant also waives any Laws or rights that would permit
Tenant to terminate this Lease (except as and if specifically set forth in this Lease), perform
repairs or maintenance in lieu of Landlord (or on Landlord’s behalf), or offset or withhold any
amounts due because of damage to or destruction of the Premises, any repairs or maintenance, or for
any other reason. Tenant promptly will notify Landlord of any damage or injury to persons or
property and any events which could be anticipated to give rise to any of the foregoing
Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease or elsewhere, Landlord and its
Affiliates will have no Liabilities of any type (excluding Liabilities arising from Landlord and/or
its Affiliates gross negligence and/or willful misconduct) subject to the mutual waivers set forth
in Article 9 with respect to Tenant’s Property and any other property owned by Tenant or its
Affiliates, and all of such Liabilities are hereby waived by Tenant. These exculpations of
Landlord and all of Tenant’s waivers in this Lease will apply to all of Tenant’s Affiliates to the
greatest extent possible. If and to the extent that these exculpations and waivers do not apply
directly to Tenant’s Affiliates because they have not signed this Lease, Tenant will indemnify
Landlord for and hold Landlord free and harmless from all Liabilities incurred by

 

 

Landlord to or in connection with Tenant’s Affiliates as if they had signed this Lease and
freely agreed to such waivers.

     14.3 Satisfaction of Remedies.

     Notwithstanding anything in this Lease or elsewhere to the contrary: Tenant and its Affiliates
will look solely to Landlord’s interest in the Project (which shall include the net proceeds of any
insurance, condemnation, sale or refinancing proceeds received by Landlord with respect to the
Building) to satisfy any claims, rights or remedies, and Landlord’s partners and their respective
Affiliates (including any property managers), at every level of ownership and interest, have no
personal or individual liability of any type, whether for breach of
this Lease or their negligence
or otherwise, (and such Liabilities are hereby waived by Tenant), their assets will not be subject
to lien or levy of any type, nor will they be named individually in any suits, actions or
proceedings of any type.

15. COMMON AREA AND PARKING.

     15.1 Common Area.

     “Common Area” means all areas and improvements within the Project, as it now exists or as it
exists in the future, not held or designated for the exclusive use or occupancy of Landlord,
Tenant, or other tenants. Tenant may use the Common Area on a nonexclusive basis during this
Lease. Landlord reserves all rights in connection with the Common Area and the rest of the
Project, including, without limitation, the right to change, relocate, add to, improve or demolish
portions of the land and/or improvements and the layout thereof and promulgate rules and
regulations with respect thereto (which Landlord agrees not to enforce in a manner discriminatory
to Tenant), limit the use of any portion of the Common Area by Tenant or its Affiliates in any such
manner applicable to all similarly affected tenants, and place certain portions of the Common Area
off limits to Tenant and its Affiliates in any such manner applicable to all similarly affected
tenants, including, without limitation, janitorial, maintenance, equipment and storage areas, and
entrances, loading docks, corridors, elevators and parking areas; provided, that Landlord’s
exercise of these rights shall not materially adversely affect Tenant’s rights under this Lease.
Landlord reserves the space above hung ceilings, below the floor and within the walls of the
Premises, and the right to install, relocate, remove, use, maintain, repair and replace Systems and
Equipment within or serving the Premises or other parts of the Building or the Project; Except
during emergencies or by reason of force majeure or necessary maintenance, repair or construction,
and subject to the other terms of this Lease, Landlord’s exercise of the rights in this Section
will not ever prevent Tenant from having access to the Premises, which is granted 24 hours per day,
7 days per week, but such exercise will not under any circumstances require Landlord to compensate
Tenant in any way, result in any Liabilities to Landlord, entitle Tenant to abate rent, or reduce
Tenant’s Lease obligations unless Landlord’s exercise of the rights in this Article cause damage to
Tenant’s Property, Alterations or the Premises, for which Tenant would otherwise be responsible to
repair. Landlord shall provide Tenant with no less than forty-eight (48) hours written notice
prior (except in the event of an emergency) to exercising any of the foregoing rights that affect
the Premises or the ingress and egress thereto. Normal operating hours for the building systems
are 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturday.
Emergency maintenance

 

 

support is available 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. All HVAC use shall be separately
metered and paid directly by Tenant.

     15.2 Parking.

     (a) During the term, Tenant shall be allocated Forty-Two (42) parking spaces at no
additional charge. Twelve (12) of these spaces shall be guaranteed but unassigned in lots
C, D and E as designated in Exhibit A, six (6) of these spaces shall be on the top floor of
the garage as designated on Exhibit A, and the balance of the spaces will be unassigned and
located in the lower rear lots (G, H, K, L and M) as shown in Exhibit A. Visitor parking is
available for Tenant’s business invitees. Tenant will not park in posted spaces assigned to
other tenants or reserved for visitor parking.

     All parking spaces are for the use of the Tenants employees and invitees. There shall be no
overnight parking of vehicles.

     (b) Tenant understands and agrees that Landlord will not be responsible for, and will
not incur any Liabilities to Tenant or its Affiliates with respect to, and Tenant waives and
assumes the risk of, any acts or omissions occurring within the parking areas or any
entrances and exits thereto or therefrom (other than the negligent or willful acts or
omissions of Landlord or its Affiliates), including, without limitation, any injuries,
death, or loss or damage to cars or other property, and Tenant will not name Landlord or its
Affiliates, or bring any actions of any kind against them, in connection therewith or as a
result thereof.

     (c) Tenant may not sublease, assign or otherwise Transfer any parking rights except to
a permitted assignee or sublessee as part of such permitted assignment or sublease. In
addition to Landlord’s rights as set forth in Section 15.1, Landlord may: limit access to
portions of the parking areas; change signs, lanes and the direction of traffic within the
parking areas; change, eliminate or add parking spaces or areas devoted to parking;
designate the area (or space) within which each authorized automobile may be parked and
change any such designation from time to time; establish alternative means of identifying
and controlling authorized parking; promulgate rules and regulations; construct additional
and/or structured parking; and take any other actions deemed necessary by Landlord, provided
that Tenant’s authorized parking spaces will not be reduced nor will Tenant be charged for
parking over and above its share of Taxes and Operating Costs related thereto (unless
Landlord otherwise specifically agrees in a writing signed by Landlord and Tenant).

16. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.

     16.1 Repairs.

     Subject to the rest of this Article and the rest of this Lease, Landlord will repair damage to
the Premises caused by casualties insured against under the casualty policies that Landlord is
required to maintain hereunder. However, Landlord is not obligated to repair damage to items for
which Landlord has no liability or responsibility under other provisions of this Lease. Except as
may otherwise be required by then-applicable Laws, Landlord will attempt to restore the

 

 

damaged portions to their prior condition, but Landlord is not required to undertake repairs
unless insurance proceeds are available, spend more than the net insurance proceeds it actually
receives and is permitted to retain for any repair or replacement, or repair or replace any damage
to Tenant’s Work, Tenant’s Property or its fixtures or any Alterations. Landlord will begin
repairs within a reasonable time after: receiving: notice of the damage; required building permits
or licenses; and the insurance proceeds payable on account of the damage.

     16.2 Election to Terminate.

     (a) Landlord has the option either to repair the casualty damage, or terminate this
Lease by delivering written notice within seventy-five (75) days after the damage occurs,
if: the damage occurs during the last year of the term; or Tenant is in default after any
applicable notice and beyond any applicable cure periods; or the repairs would take more
than one hundred twenty (120) days to complete; or the casualty damages more than twenty
five percent (25%) of either: the leasable space in the rest of the Building: or the
leasable space in the rest of the Project (other than the Building); or the Common Area of
the Building; or the parking area.

     (b) Tenant has the option to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to
Landlord if: the casualty damages the Premises and renders it untenantable, Landlord is
required or elects to repair and the repairs which Landlord is required to make are not
substantially completed within twelve (12) months after the damage occurs (subject to
extension of this period for up to an additional two (2) months for delays caused by force
majeure); and Tenant delivers its written termination notice to Landlord within fifteen (15)
days after the end of Landlord’s repair period and Landlord fails to substantially complete
within sixty (60) days after receiving this notice. Under these circumstances, this Lease
will terminate at the end of this fifteen (15)-day period.

     16.3 Abatement of Rent.

     Subject to Section 16.2(b), if the Premises are damaged, other than if caused by the willful
misconduct of Tenant, so as to be untenantable for more than three (3) consecutive business days,
base rent and Tenant’s share of Taxes and Operating Costs will abate until Landlord has
substantially completed the repairs it is required to perform and given Tenant access to the
Premises, or Tenant reoccupies part of the Premises, the Premises otherwise are rendered
tenantable, or this Lease terminates, whichever is earliest. If Tenant continues to occupy or
reoccupies the Premises before substantial completion of these repairs but cannot occupy
substantially all of the Premises because of these ongoing repairs, base rent and Tenant’s share of
Taxes and Operating Costs will abate in proportion to the degree to which Tenant’s use of the
Premises is impaired, as reasonably determined by Landlord. The base rent abatement will not
exceed the annual base rent that otherwise would have been payable by Tenant for the Lease Year in
which the damage occurs. The abatement of base rent and Tenant’s share of Taxes and Operating
Costs described above, and Tenant’s rights under Section 16.2(b), are Tenant’s sole rights,
remedies and compensation in connection with any damage, destruction or repairs, regardless of
cause.

 

 

17. CONDEMNATION.

     If all or substantially all of the Premises are condemned, taken or appropriated by any public
or quasi-public authority under the power of eminent domain, police power or otherwise, or if there
is a sale in lieu thereof (“Condemned”), this Lease will terminate when title or possession is
taken by the condemning authority or its designee, if:

     (a) More than twenty-five percent (25%) of the usable area of the Premises is
Condemned; either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease when title or possession is
taken by the condemning authority or its designee by delivering written notice to the other
within fifteen (15) days thereafter. Landlord also may terminate this Lease if more than
twenty five percent (25%) of any of the following are condemned: the leasable area of the
rest of the Building; the leasable area of the Project (other than the Building); the Common
Area of the Building; or the parking area.

     (b) Part of the Premises is Condemned and this Lease is not terminated, Landlord will
attempt to make the necessary repairs so that, to the extent reasonably possible, the
remaining part of the Premises will be a complete architectural unit. Otherwise, Landlord’s
restoration will be conducted as described in Section 16.1, except that Landlord will not be
required to begin repairs until a reasonable time after it receives any necessary building
permits and substantially all of the proceeds of any awards granted for the Condemnation.
In that case, after the date title or possession is taken by the condemning authority or its
designees, Tenant’s Percentage will be recalculated based on the rentable area of the
remaining Premises as compared to the rentable area of the Project after the Condemnation
(aggregate annual base rent will automatically be reduced because the rentable area of the
Premises will have been reduced by the Condemnation).

     All proceeds, income, rent, awards and interest in connection with any Condemnation will
belong to Landlord, whether awarded as compensation for diminution of value to the leasehold
improvements, or the unexpired portion of this Lease, or otherwise. Tenant waives all claims
against Landlord and the condemning authority with respect thereto, but nothing in this Section
prevents Tenant from bringing a separate action against the condemning authority for moving costs
or for lost goodwill (as long as this separate action does not diminish Landlord’s recovery).

18. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

     18.1 Landlord’s Consent Required.

     Tenant will not, and does not have the right or power to, voluntarily, involuntarily or by
operation of any Laws, sell, convey, mortgage, subject to a security interest, license, assign,
sublet or otherwise transfer or encumber all or any part of Tenant’s interest in this Lease or the
Premises, or allow anyone other than Tenant’s employees or agents to occupy the Premises
(singularly or collectively, a Transfer,” and any person to whom a Transfer is made or sought to be
made sometimes is referred to as a “Transferee”), without, first obtaining Landlord’s prior written
consent in each case (except where consent is not required as specifically set forth in Section
18.5(c)) and complying with this Article and any attempt to do so without this consent

 

 

and compliance will be null and void and a default, unless otherwise specifically elected by
Landlord in writing.

     18.2 Notice.

     Tenant will notify Landlord in writing at least twenty-one (21) days before any proposed or
pending Transfer and together with that notice will deliver to Landlord the following information:
the proposed effective date of the Transfer; the name, address and state of formation of the
Transferee; a description of the proposed Transfer (including, if applicable, a sublease that
complies with the terms of this Section 17); certified current financial statements and balance
sheets, a current Dun & Bradstreet report, if any, banking and accounting references and other
relevant financial information for the proposed Transferee; information as to the type of business
and business experience of the proposed Transferee and a statement of its proposed use of the
Premises; a statement signed by an authorized officer of Tenant certifying that the Transfer
complies with this Article 18; an executed estoppel certificate from Tenant; and such other
information as Landlord may reasonably request in connection with the proposed or pending Transfer
and the proposed Transferee.

     18.3 Reasonable Consent.

     (a) Except as specifically set forth in Section 18.3(b) below or elsewhere in this
Article, Landlord will not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to sublease or an
assignment by Tenant. Tenant agrees that Landlord’s withholding of consent to a proposed
sublease or assignment will be deemed reasonable if Tenant is in monetary default or in
default of other terms after any applicable notice and cure periods, or if any of the
following conditions are not SATISFIED: (a) the sublease or assignment complies with this
Article and the rest of this Lease, the subtenant or assignee will use the Premises only for
the uses permitted in Section 1.1 (k) and otherwise in accordance with this Lease, its use
will not increase the risk of possible contamination by Hazardous Materials in Landlord’s
reasonable judgment, and the business and reputation of the subtenant or assignee are
consistent with the other tenancies and standards of the Project in Landlord’s reasonable
judgment; (b) the subtenant or assignee is not a governmental or quasi-governmental entity
nor is it a person with diplomatic immunity; (c) the subtenant or assignee is stable and
creditworthy and has the independent financial ability to perform its obligations as
sublessee or assignee without undue financial burden in Landlord’s reasonable judgment and
neither it nor its predecessors in interest has had a receiver appointed to manage its
affairs or in connection with any of its assets or been subject to a bankruptcy or
reorganization, criminal judgments, sanctions, consent decrees or similar actions by the SEC
or other governmental or quasi-governmental authorities; (d) the terms of the Transfer
prohibit the Transferee from exercising (or occupying space leased by Tenant pursuant to
Tenant’s exercise of) any right to extend, renew or cancel this Lease or any part thereof or
lease additional space in the Project; (e) Landlord’s Mortgagees consent (if their consent
is required); (f) there will be no more than an aggregate of two (2) subleases of the
Premises, (g) the subtenant uses the Premises for an office use consistent with an office
use for a Class A office building and (h) neither Tenant nor any broker, agent or other
representative retained by tenant shall have publicly advertised the availability of the
Premises without prior notice to and approval

 

 

by Landlord (which approval shall be with respect to the advertisement itself as
opposed to the right to advertise), nor shall any public advertisement state the proposed
rental, but nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prohibit Tenant, without Landlord’s
reasonable consent or approval, from listing with brokers the availability of the Premises
for sublet or assignment at any rental rate, and broker’s fliers or listings and Tenant’s
marketing materials shall not be deemed to constitute public advertisements. These
conditions are not exclusive and Landlord may reasonably consider other factors deemed to be
relevant in determining if Landlord should grant or reasonably withhold its consent.

     (b) If Tenant proposes to assign or sublease or otherwise Transfer all or a portion of
the Premises (except to a valid assignee or sublessee pursuant to a Transfer permitted
without consent under Section 18.5(c)), Landlord will have the right, but not the
obligation, either to: consent or reasonably withhold consent under Section 18.3(a). In
addition to the options provided in the foregoing sentence, if the proposed transfer is an
assignment of sublease of the entire Premises, the Landlord may construe the proposal as an
offer to Landlord on the same terms as with the proposed Transferee, which may be accepted
by Landlord (although Landlord will always have the right to further sublease, assign or
Transfer without Tenant’s review or approval); or terminate the Lease with respect to the
space to be assigned, subleased or otherwise Transferred (which space may be reasonably
reconfigured by Landlord at its sole cost and expense to obtain a discrete and
architecturally complete space leaseable to others if less than all of the Premises is
involved), provided that in any case Landlord notifies Tenant in writing within the
twenty-one (21) day period described in Section 18.2. If Landlord so elects to terminate,
this Lease will terminate on the date specified by Landlord in its notice (but not prior to
the proposed transfer date) to Tenant as if such date were the expiration date of this Lease
with respect to that space. The termination date specified by Landlord will be not less
than thirty (30) days or more than ninety (90) days after the date of Landlord’s election
notice. As of the termination date, Tenant no longer will have any liability for the rent
and other obligations under the Lease for periods thereafter for that portion of the
Premises, and Tenant’s parking rights (assigned and unassigned parking) will be
proportionally reduced. At Landlord’s election, Tenant will execute an amendment of this
Lease confirming the terms of such termination. If Landlord exercises its right to accept
the offer or terminate all or a part of the Lease as set forth above, it will have the right
to not lease the space or enter into a lease or other agreement for all or parts of the
space from time to time with any other person(s), including, without limitation, Tenant’s
proposed Transferee, on terms acceptable to Landlord in its sole and arbitrary discretion,
and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Tenant will have no right or interest in any
rent or other consideration payable under those leases or other agreements. Landlord’s
right to recapture under this subsection 18.3(b) shall not apply to permitted transfers
under Section 18.5(c) below or transfers which would have otherwise been permitted under
Section 18.5(c), except the Transferee failed the net worth, credit rating and financial
capability test under said subsection (c).

     18.4 No Release of Tenant.

     Whether or not Landlord consents, no Transfer will release or alter the liability of Tenant to
pay rent and perform all of Tenant’s other Liabilities under this Lease, nor will it release or

 

 

alter the Liabilities of any guarantor under any guaranty of this Lease. The acceptance of
rent by Landlord from any person other than Tenant is not a waiver by Landlord. Consent to one
Transfer will not be deemed to be consent to any subsequent Transfer. If Tenant or any Transferee
defaults under this Lease, Landlord may proceed directly against the Transferee and/or against
Tenant without proceeding or exhausting its remedies against the other. If Landlord consents, that
consent will be valid only if it is in writing, the executed Transfer documents comply with this
Article and the information furnished to Landlord by or on behalf of Tenant or the Transferee (and
copies of those executed documents are promptly delivered to Landlord), and such information is
true and correct in all material respects.

     18.5 Additional Terms.

     (a) This Article is binding and will apply to every Transferee, at every level. The
surrender of this Lease or its termination will not be a merger, but Landlord will have the
right to terminate all subleases and the occupancy rights of all Transferees. Tenant will
pay to Landlord as additional rent: fifty percent (50%) of rent and other consideration paid
or payable for or by reason of any assignment of this Lease after Tenant first
recovers its bona fide, reasonable, out-of-pocket costs paid to unaffiliated third parties
for attorneys fees, brokerage commissions, and new tenant improvements or allowances and
reasonable marketing costs solely for that assignee or subtenant. At Landlord’s option,
Landlord may collect all or any part of this additional rent directly from the payor, and
consideration paid or payable will be defined in its broadest sense. Tenant will promptly
deliver to Landlord copies of all executed Transfer documents, all collateral agreements and
all later amendments. Tenant will promptly pay Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and
other costs in connection with any request for Landlord’s consent to a Transfer; provided,
however, that such costs shall not exceed $1,000.00. A listing of any name other than
Tenant’s name on the doors or walls of the Premises or elsewhere in the Project will not be
deemed to be an implied consent by Landlord to any sublease, assignment, occupancy or other
Transfer nor constitute a waiver of Landlord’s right to withhold consent to any Transfer or
Tenant’s failure to comply with this Article. Landlord’s profit sharing rights under
subsection 18.5(a) does not apply to permitted transfers under Section 18.5(c) below.

     (b) A Transferee (which for these purposes will exclude any permitted sublessee but
will include any assignee by contract, foreclosure, operation of law or otherwise) will be
deemed to have assumed all of Tenant’s obligations and Liabilities under this Lease (all of
which will be deemed to run with the land) and will be deemed to be bound by this Lease, and
Tenant and the Transferee will indemnify Landlord and hold it harmless from all Liabilities
in connection with the Transfer. To confirm the foregoing, a prospective Transferee (other
than a permitted sublessee) will be required to execute and deliver to Landlord an
unconditional written assumption of Tenant’s Liabilities under this Lease and an
unconditional written indemnity as described above, and Tenant and the Transferee will be
deemed to be jointly and severally liable for all Liabilities of the Tenant under this Lease
and any existing amendments thereto (although such a written assumption will not be required
to establish the full liability of the Transferee for all of Tenant’s Liabilities under this
Lease). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in a sublease, each sublease will be
deemed to include and incorporate the

 

 

following provisions: it will be subject and subordinate to this Lease in all respects,
if there is any conflict the terms of this Lease will control, and all restrictions and
limitations on and obligations of Tenant under this Lease (except with respect to the
payment of rent and the length of the term) are incorporated into the sublease; the
subtenant will represent that it has reviewed and approved all of the terms of this Lease;
any Alterations that require Landlord’s consent under this Lease will also require
Landlord’s consent under the sublease; Tenant and the subtenant will indemnify Landlord and
hold it harmless from all Liabilities in connection with the sublease to the same extent as
provided in this Lease; the subtenant will acquire no rights or claims against Landlord or
its Affiliates and will not have the right to exercise any of Tenant’s rights or options to
renew, extend or lease additional space in the Project, or any other rights and remedies
under this Lease against Landlord; the subtenant will maintain the same insurance as is
required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease endorsed in the same manner to Landlord
and its designees, and on their behalf and on behalf of their insurers, the subtenant and
its Affiliates waive subrogation, and they waive and discharge Landlord and its Affiliates
from, all claims in connection with any Liabilities incurred by subtenant or its Affiliates
in connection with the sublease, the Premises, or the rest of the Project; there will be no
privities of contract or estate between the subtenant and Landlord (except if and to the
extent necessary to permit Landlord to enforce its rights and remedies); the subtenant will
not have the right or power to further Transfer its subleased space or any interest in the
sublease or that space or to amend the requirements in this Lease that are incorporated into
the sublease; amendments to the sublease will require Landlord’s prior written approval;
Tenant and subtenant will concurrently deliver to Landlord copies of any notices of default
or breach or similar notices sent or received by them; and if this Lease terminates pursuant
to its terms or by reason of default, operation of law, or agreement between Landlord and
Tenant, or Landlord rightfully reenters or repossesses the Premises, Landlord will have the
right and power (but not the obligation) to terminate the sublease without any incurring any
Liabilities (all of which are hereby waived by Tenant, the subtenant and their respective
Affiliates), or at its option permit the sublease to continue with Landlord becoming the
sublessor thereunder, in which case the subtenant will attorn to Landlord, but Landlord will
not be liable for Tenant’s acts or omissions, or any claims, defenses or offsets against or
obligations of Tenant, nor will it be bound by any amendment to the sublease made without
Landlord’s prior written consent. By entering into a sublease, Tenant and the sublessee
agree that if the sublessee breaches an obligation under its sublease which would also
constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease if not cured within applicable grace
periods, it will be a default under this Lease and then Landlord will have all of the rights
and remedies against the subtenant that is also has against Tenant for such a default.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord will be permitted (by assignment
of the cause of action or otherwise) to join the Tenant in any action or proceeding against
subtenant or to proceed against the subtenant directly in the name of Tenant to enforce
these rights and remedies. Tenant and subtenant will cooperate with Landlord and execute
such documents as may be reasonably necessary to implement the terms, rights and remedies
set forth in this Section 18, including, without limitation, (explicitly or incorporating
them by written reference) in the sublease at Landlord’s election. The exercise of these
rights and remedies will not constitute an election of remedies and will not in any way

 

 

impair Landlord’s right to pursue other or similar rights and remedies directly against
Tenant, nor will the grant or exercise of these rights or remedies result in the subtenant
acquiring any rights or claims against Landlord or its Affiliates. Transferees will not
have the right or power to make further Transfers, and any attempt to do so will be null and
void and a default unless otherwise specifically elected by Landlord in writing. As a
material inducement to Landlord to enter into this Lease, Tenant agrees to make each
prospective Transferee aware of the terms of this Article and will deliver to each
prospective Transferee a true and correct copy of this Lease prior to any Transfer, and each
document of assignment, sublease or other Transfer, at every level, will include or
explicitly incorporate the terms of this Article. Landlord may reasonably require
confirming and/or additional assurances and agreements for its protection from Tenant and
the Transferee, each of whom agrees to give such assurances and execute such agreements.

     (c) If Tenant is a corporation, partnership, association or limited liability company,
the Transfer of more than forty percent (40%) of Tenant’s capital stock, assets, partnership
interests, or interests in the association or limited liability company, to any person or
affiliated persons, or any dissolution, merger, consolidation or other reorganization of
Tenant, whether directly or indirectly, by sale, conveyance, withdrawal, operation of Laws
or otherwise, or by one or more transactions (other than by unrelated transactions of stock
which is listed on a public exchange, such as the NYSE or NASDAQ), will deemed to be an
attempted Transfer of this Lease and subject to all of the terms of this Article and the
rest of this Lease and the Transferee (or surviving person) will be deemed to have assumed
all of the Liabilities of Tenant under this Lease. However, an assignment or sublease by
Tenant to its parent corporation or wholly-owned subsidiary, or to an entity that acquires
all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets, or to an entity into which Tenant is merged or
consolidated or to any related affiliate, will be deemed to be a permitted assignment or
sublease, as applicable, where Landlord’s consent is not required, provided that it is a
bona-fide transaction and not a subterfuge to avoid the consent provisions of this Lease,
the rest of this Article is complied with, the Transferee has a net worth (not including
good will as an asset), credit rating and financial capability at least equal to Tenant’s
when Tenant executed this Lease or at the time of the proposed Transfer (for each category,
whichever is greater), as certified by Tenant and the Transferee (or surviving person) and
as evidenced by GAAP financial statements audited by an independent CPA, and the Transferee
unconditionally assumes in writing for Landlord’s benefit all of Tenant’s Liabilities under
this Lease. If the Transferee in a Transfer subject to this Section 18.4 (c) satisfies all
of the requirements provided above, except the net worth, credit rating, and financed
capabilities test; then Tenant may Transfer this Lease to such Transferee without Landlord’s
consent, provided Tenant deposits as a Security Deposit an amount equal to the unamortized
costs of Landlord’s Work and any brokerage fees or commissions paid by Landlord in
connection with this Lease. Such amount shall be deposited as security for the performance
of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and shall be delivered to Landlord prior to the
effective date of the Transfer.

 

 

19. MORTGAGEE PROTECTION.

     19.1 Subordination and Attornment.

     This Lease is subordinate to all Superior Leases and Mortgages, and Tenant will attorn to each
person or entity that succeeds to Landlord’s interest under this Lease. This Section is
self-operative as to Superior Leases and Mortgages and Landlord’s Mortgagees existing when this
Lease is executed, but if requested to confirm a subordination and/or attornment, Tenant will
execute subordination and attornment agreements furnished by the then-current Landlord’s Mortgagees
within fifteen (15) days after request. The landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts
to obtain the execution and delivery to Tenant of recordable agreements by the holders of all
Superior Leases and Mortgages covering the Premises which are of record prior to the execution and
delivery of this Lease and by anyone having any interest in the leased premises which is superior
to the interest or title of Landlord or which might at any time adversely affect Tenant’s
possession or right to possession of the Premises under the terms of this Lease, which agreements
shall provide that, so long as the Tenant shall not be in terminable default under the Lease, this
Lease will not be affected and Tenant’s possession hereunder will not be disturbed by any default
in or foreclosure of such mortgage and Tenant shall continue peaceably to hold and enjoy the
Premises for the remainder of the lease term (and any extension thereof) upon all the same terms,
covenants and conditions of this Lease, however, the failure to provide one will not constitute a
default by the Landlord. The Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a similar
agreement from subsequent mortgagees; however, the failure to provide one will not constitute a
default by the Landlord. At the request of those Landlord’s Mortgagees, Tenant will execute the
Mortgagee’s standard form subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements to provide for
the foregoing. However, if a Landlord’s Mortgagee elects in writing, this Lease will be superior
to the Superior Leases and Mortgages specified, regardless of the date of recording, and Tenant
will execute an agreement confirming this election on request.

     19.2 Mortgagee’s Liability and Right to Cure.

     The obligations and Liabilities of Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagees or their successors under
this Lease will exist only if and for so long as each of these respective parties owns fee title to
the Project or is the lessee under a ground lease of the Project. Tenant will be liable to
Landlord’s Mortgagees or their successors if any of those parties become the owner of the Project
for any base rent paid more than thirty (30) days in advance. Landlord’s Mortgagees and their
successors will not be liable for: (a) acts or omissions of prior owners; (b) the return of any
security deposit not delivered to them; or (c) amendments to this Lease made without their consent
(if their consent is required under a Superior Lease or Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary, nothing in this Section or the rest of this Lease obligates those parties to correct or
cure any such act or omission or is meant to imply that Tenant has the right to terminate this
Lease or be released from its obligations and Liabilities or offset or reduce rent or collect
damages unless that right is explicitly granted elsewhere in this Lease, and if not so granted
those rights are irrevocably waived. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no act or omission
(if any) which otherwise might entitle Tenant under the terms of this Lease or otherwise to be
released from any obligations or Liabilities under this Lease or to terminate this Lease or to make
a claim against the owner of the Project Will result in or permit such a release, termination or
claim unless the act or omission is a material obligation of Landlord under this

 

 

Lease, Tenant first gives written notice of the act or omission to Landlord and Landlord’s
Mortgagees, and those parties then fail to correct or cure the act or omission within a reasonable
time thereafter (which will not be less than ninety (90) days).

20. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES.

     Within fifteen (15) days after written request by either party, the other party will execute
and deliver an estoppel certificate in form satisfactory to the requesting party or its designees
which will certify (except as may be truthfully and accurately noted) such information concerning
this Lease and associated matters as the requesting party or its designees may reasonably request.

21. DEFAULT.

     The occurrence of one or more of the following events will be a default by Tenant under this
Lease: (a) if there ever is a Guaranty of any of Tenant’s Liabilities under this Lease, a default
by a Guarantor thereunder; (b) the failure to pay rent or any other required amount within five (5)
days after written notice that the payment is due; (c) as provided in Articles 23 and 25; (d) a
Transfer or attempted Transfer in violation of Article 18; (e) Tenant’s failure to maintain its
required insurance policies; or (f) Tenant’s failure to observe or perform any other obligation,
term or condition within the time period specified in this Lease, .and if no time period is
specified, it will be a default if this failure continues for fifteen (15) days after written
notice from Landlord to Tenant, but if more than fifteen (15) days reasonably are required to cure,
Tenant will not be in default if Tenant begins to cure within the fifteen (15) day period and then
diligently completes the cure as soon as possible but in any case within sixty (60) days after the
notice of default is given. The term “default” or ‘Tenant default” or similar wording as used in
this Lease means a default as defined in this Section 21, but notwithstanding the foregoing or
anything else to the contrary, if there is an Event of Bankruptcy as described in Section 23
(Exhibit E), Tenant will still be deemed to have been and to be in default if it fails to pay or
perform its obligations under this Lease as and when required even if Landlord does not deliver or
is prevented from delivering a notice of such failure.

22. REMEDIES FOR DEFAULT.

     22.1 General.

     If Tenant defaults past any applicable notice and cure period, Landlord may at any time
thereafter, with or without notice or demand, choose any or all of the following remedies or pursue
any other right or remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord under this Lease or at law or in
equity:

     (a) At Landlord’s written election the following amounts will become immediately due
and payable in advance:

     (i) The unpaid rent which has accrued and would have accrued up to the date of
payment, plus late charges, plus interest from the dates such rent was due to the
date of payment at the Default Rate; plus

 

 

     (ii) The amount by which the whole balance of unpaid rent which would have
become due had this Lease continued for the balance of the term (discounted to the
date of payment at the rate of seven percent (7%) per annum) exceeds the amount of
such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided (also
discounted at the rate of seven percent (7%) per annum). Tenant will have the
burden of proving the amount of rental loss that reasonably could have been avoided
by Landlord, until the expiration of the term of this Lease from any reletting of
the Premises entered into by Landlord at the time (discounted at the rate of 7% per
annum, and excluding from such net rental utility charges and other charges, if any,
that must be remitted by Landlord to any governmental or quasi-governmental
authority); plus

     (iii) The reasonable costs of enforcing the terms of this Lease, including,
without limitation, costs for attorneys’ fees, investigations, and performing
Tenant’s obligations as necessary, and/or

     (b) Landlord may terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant. If Landlord elects
to terminate this Lease under the provisions of this Section, Landlord may recover from
Tenant a judgment and Tenant will be liable for damages computed in accordance with the
following formula, in addition to Landlord’s other remedies:

     (i) The unpaid rent which has accrued and would have accrued up to the time of
judgment, plus late charges, plus interest from the dates such rent was due to the
date of the judgment at the Default Rate; plus

     (ii) The amount by which the whole balance of unpaid rent which would have
become due had this Lease continued for the balance of the term after the date of
judgment (discounted to the date of payment at the rate of seven percent (7%) per
annum) exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been
reasonably avoided (also discounted at the rate of seven percent (7%) per annum).
Tenant will have the burden of proving the amount of rental loss that reasonably
could have been avoided by Landlord, until the expiration of the term of this Lease
from any reletting of the Premises entered into by Landlord at the time (discounted
at the rate of 7% per annum, and excluding from such net rental utility charges and
other charges, if any, that must be remitted by Landlord to any governmental or
quasi-governmental authority); plus

     (iii) The reasonable costs of enforcing the terms of this Lease, repossessing,
repairing, and reletting the Premises (excluding any costs to build out the
Premises), reasonable marketing, brokerage and attorneys* fees and costs, and any
other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately
caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease and/or which
in the ordinary course would be likely to result therefrom.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, to avoid a duplication of payments, if Landlord has actually
received payment in full of all accelerated rent for the Lease term and the other amounts

 

 

as described in Section 22.1(a) above, it cannot thereafter also receive additional amounts
under this Section 22.1 (b), and/or

     (c) Subject to the terms of this Lease, Landlord or its designees may, without further
notice or demand but otherwise subject to law, enter the Premises without being guilty of
trespass and without incurring (and Tenant hereby waives) Liabilities for damages for such
entry or for the manner thereof, for the purpose of distraint or execution and/or to take
possession of the Premises, and/or to terminate Tenant’s right of possession and/or to expel
Tenant and its Affiliates and remove their property, and/or

     (d) Landlord may enforce this Lease in accordance with its terms and Tenant will
continue to be responsible for all charges as and when they become due, and/or

     (e) After reentry, retaking or recovering of the Premises, with or without terminating
this Lease, and without limiting Landlord’s acceleration right or other rights and remedies,
Landlord may (but will not be obligated to) relet the Premises or any part(s) thereof to
such person(s) upon such terms, as may, in Landlord’s sole discretion seem best for a term
within or beyond the term of this Lease. Any such reletting by Landlord before termination
of this Lease will be for Tenant’s account, and may be in Landlord’s name or Tenant’s name,
and Tenant will remain liable for all rent and additional rent (including all charges and
damages) due at the time of the reletting plus all of such amounts that otherwise would have
been due under this Lease for the balance of the term absent any expiration, termination,
repossession or reletting, plus all costs of the type described in Sections 22.1(b)(iii) and
(iv), as accelerated or, if not accelerated, as they accrue. However, until this Lease
expires or is terminated, each month Tenant will receive a credit against its obligations
equal to the net rental proceeds (excluding utility charges or other charges, if any, that
must be remitted by Landlord to any governmental or quasi-governmental authority), if any,
actually paid to Landlord in that month by the party or parties to whom the Premises were
relet, but this credit will never be more than the amounts owed by Tenant to Landlord for
that month. Further, Tenant, for itself and its successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably
constitutes and appoints Landlord as Tenant’s agent to collect the rents due and to become
due from all sublessees and Transferees and apply the same to the rent due hereunder without
in any way affecting Tenant’s obligation to pay any unpaid balance of rent due or to become
due hereunder.

     Except as provided herein, Tenant waives the right under any Laws to any notice to remove or
quit and any and all rights of redemption or similar rights regardless of the circumstances, and
any rights or claims against Landlord or its Affiliates in connection with any loss, theft, damage
or destruction of Tenant’s Property or any other property of Tenant or its Affiliates. For the
purposes of computing any rent due hereunder, the amounts of additional rent which would have been
payable per year under this Lease will be such amounts as were or would have been payable as
specified in this Lease or, if not specified, as reasonably estimated by Landlord (in either case
without the benefit of any abatement to which Tenant may have been entitled) for the calendar year
in which the default occurred, increasing annually on the first day of each calendar year
thereafter at the rate of seven percent (7%) per annum, cumulative and compounded. As used in this
Article, the “term” means the initial term of this Lease and any renewals or extensions to which
Tenant will have become bound prior to the default.

 

 

     22.2 Remedies Cumulative.

     All remedies available to Landlord hereunder and at law and in equity will be cumulative and
concurrent. No termination of this Lease nor taking or recovering possession of the Premises will
deprive Landlord of any remedies or actions against Tenant for rent, for charges or for damages for
the breach of any covenant, agreement or condition, nor will the bringing of any such action for
rent, charges or breach, nor the resort to any other remedy or right for the recovery of rent,
charges or damages for such breach be construed as a waiver or release of the right to insist upon
the forfeiture and to obtain possession. No reentering or taking possession of the Premises, or
making of repairs, alterations or improvements thereto, or reletting thereof, will be construed as
an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless specific written notice of such election is
given by Landlord to Tenant

     22.3 Performance by Landlord.

     If Tenant defaults or fails to perform any of its obligations under this Lease, past any
applicable notice and cure period, Landlord, without waiving or curing the default or failure, may,
but will not be obligated to, perform Tenant’s obligations for the account and at the expense of
Tenant. Notwithstanding Section 22.2, in the case of an emergency or to prevent damage or injury
or protect health, safety or property, Landlord need not give any notice before performing Tenant’s
obligations. Tenant will pay on demand all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection
with Landlord’s performance of Tenant’s obligations after Tenant’s default and failure to cure, and
Tenant will indemnify Landlord for and hold Landlord harmless from all Liabilities incurred by
Landlord in connection therewith.

     22.4 Post-Judgment Interest.

     The amount of any judgment obtained by Landlord against Tenant in any legal proceeding arising
out of Tenant’s default under this Lease will bear interest until paid at the Wells Fargo Bank
prime rate plus four percent (4%), or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less (the
“Default Rate”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Laws, with respect to
any damages that are certain or ascertainable by calculation, interest will accrue from the day
that the right to the damages vests in Landlord, and in the case of any unliquidated claim,
interest will accrue from the day the claim arose.

23.
BANKRUPTCY. [SEE EXHIBIT E]

24. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

     24.1 Holding Over.

     Tenant will not hold over in the Premises after the end of the Lease term without the express
prior written consent of Landlord. Tenant will indemnify Landlord for, and hold Landlord harmless
from, any and all Liabilities arising out of or in connection with any holding over, including,
without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant and any loss of rent suffered by
Landlord. If, despite this express agreement, any tenancy is created by Tenant’s holding over,
except as specifically set forth in the next sentence the tenancy will be a tenancy at sufferance
terminable at Landlord’s sole option on thirty (30) days written notice to Tenant, but

 

 

otherwise subject to the terms of this Lease, except that the most recent annual base rent
will be multiplied by 1.5. Tenant will have no rights to lease any additional space in the Project
or extend the term, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary Landlord will incur no Liabilities
of any type to Tenant or its Affiliates during any holdover period, all of such Liabilities hereby
being waived by Tenant. Nothing in this Article or elsewhere in this Lease permits Tenant to hold
over or in any way limits Landlord’s other rights and remedies if Tenant holds over. Nothing in
this section shall be construed as a waiver by the Landlord of a claim for damages as a result of
the Tenant holding over.

     24.2 Entry By Landlord.

     (a) Subject to the terms of this Section, Landlord and its Affiliates at all times upon
no less than one business day prior notice (except in the event of an emergency or daily
cleaning or maintenance) have the right to enter the Premises, and Landlord will retain (or
be given by Tenant) keys to unlock all the doors to or within the Premises, excluding doors
to Tenant’s vaults and files. If Landlord enters the Premises on an emergency basis, it
shall use reasonable efforts to provide notice of such entry to Tenant as soon as
practicable after such entry. Landlord in good faith will attempt to avoid disturbing the
conduct of Tenant’s business by such entry more than is reasonably necessary under these
circumstances. But, Landlord need not give notice and will have the right to use any means
necessary to enter the Premises if Landlord believes there is an emergency or that entry is
necessary to prevent damage or injury or protect health, safety or property. Entry to the
Premises and the exercise of Landlord’s rights as provided herein will not, under any
circumstances, be deemed to be a default, a forcible or unlawful entry into or a detainer of
the Premises or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof, nor will it
subject Landlord to any Liabilities or entitle Tenant to any compensation, abatement of rent
or other rights and remedies.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Landlord reserves from the rights granted
to Tenant in this Lease, and Tenant agrees to permit, the right of emergency access through
the Premises for Landlord and other tenants and occupants of the Building (and their
respective Affiliates). To accommodate this emergency access, Landlord will have the right
to use existing (or if not already existing, at its cost install new) doors, hardware and
locking devices in the Premises and to comply with applicable Laws in providing this access,
and all of this work will be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and so as not to
disturb the conduct of Tenant’s business more than is reasonably necessary under the
circumstances.

     24.3 Brokers.

     Tenant represents and warrants that Bailes & Associates, Inc and Trammell Crow are
acknowledged as the sole Brokers of record for Tenant in this proposed transaction and Bailes &
Associates, Inc and Trammell Crow will be paid a brokerage fee per a separate agreement. Tenant
will indemnify Landlord for any Liabilities incurred in connection with any breach of this
representation and warranty. Landlord will be obligated to Tenant’s Broker only if and when
Landlord and Tenant’s Broker execute and deliver a final and binding agreement setting forth the
terms of such obligation.

 

 

     24.4 Quiet Enjoyment.

     So long as Tenant pays all rent and performs its other obligations as required, Tenant may
quietly enjoy the Premises without hindrance or molestation by Landlord or any person lawfully
claiming through or under Landlord, subject to the terms of this Lease and the terms of any
Superior Leases and Mortgages, and all other agreements or matters of record or to which this Lease
is subordinate.

     24.5 Security.

     Landlord shall provide, the cost of which is included as an Operating Expense security for the
Building 24-hours a day, 7 days per week.

     24.6 Obligations: Successors: Recordation.

     If Tenant consists of more than one person or entity, the obligations and liabilities of those
persons or entities are joint and several. Subject to the terms of this Lease, time is of the
essence of this Lease. Subject to the restrictions in Section 18, this Lease inures to the benefit
of and binds Landlord, Tenant and their respective Affiliates. Tenant will not record this Lease,
but Tenant may record a notice of this Lease pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 183,
Section 4 (or Chapter 185, Section 71 for registered land) and Landlord agrees to execute such a
notice if requested by Tenant If the Notice is recorded, the Tenant agrees, upon the termination of
this Lease for any reason, to execute a Release of the Notice of Lease.

     24.7 Late Charges.

     If any rent or other amounts payable by Tenant are not received within five (5) days after
Tenant receives written notice from Landlord of Tenant’s failure to pay rent on the due date,
Tenant will pay to Landlord on demand a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue
amount, and if not received within ten (10) days after the due date, the amounts also will bear
interest from the due date until paid at the Default Rate. Collection of these late charges and
interest will not: be a waiver or cure of Tenant’s default or failure to perform; be deemed to be
liquidated damages, an invalid penalty or an election of remedies; or prevent Landlord from
exercising any other rights and remedies.

     24.8 Accord and Satisfaction.

     Neither endorsements nor statements on any check or any letter accompanying any check or
payment, nor payment by Tenant or acceptance by Landlord of less than the full amount of rent or
any other amount due, will be binding on Landlord nor will they be deemed to be a waiver,
settlement, or accord and satisfaction. Amounts received by Landlord will be deemed to be on
account of amounts due and may be applied in such order and to such obligations as Landlord
determines in its sole discretion. Landlord may accept any check or payment without prejudice to
any of Landlord’s rights and remedies, including, without limitation, the right to recover the full
amount due.

     24.9 Prior Agreements; Amendments: Waiver.

 

 

     This Lease is an integrated document and contains all of the agreements, conditions,
representations, and warranties and other terms between the parties in connection with the Project
or the leasing of the Premises or any other parts of the Project or any other matter covered or
mentioned in this Lease, and supersedes all prior agreements or understandings. This Lease may not
be amended except by an agreement in writing signed and delivered by the parties. Except as may be
specifically set forth in this Lease, all waivers must be in writing. Landlord will not be bound
by any purported waiver (including, without limitation, any purported waiver in connection with a
Transfer) unless the waiver is in writing, specifies the obligation, term, condition, act,
omission, or agreement to be waived, and is executed and delivered by Landlord, and for example
(but not by way of limitation), Landlord’s acceptance of less than the full amount of rent due,
acceptance of funds from any other source, collection of a late charge, application of a security
deposit, failure to notify, failure to pursue rights and remedies, or failure to insist on strict
performance will not be a waiver, whether or not Landlord has knowledge of a breach or default and
regardless of the passage of time or continuation of conduct. Landlord’s waiver of any obligation,
term, condition, act, omission, or agreement will not be deemed to be a waiver of any other, or
subsequent, obligation, term, condition, act, omission, or agreement, whether similar or
dissimilar, nor of any of Landlord’s rights and remedies.

     24.10 Representations: Inability to Perform.

     Except as provided herein, Tenant is not relying on and was not induced to sign this Lease as
a result of any statements, information, projections, representations or warranties of any kind,
express or implied, with respect to the Premises, the Project or this transaction, and instead
Tenant entered into this Lease based on its own independent investigation and assessment. Landlord
and Tenant will not be in default (other than monetary defaults) nor incur any Liabilities if it
can’t fulfill any of its obligations, or is delayed in doing so, because of accidents, breakage,
strike, labor troubles, war, terrorism, sabotage, governmental regulations or controls, inability
to obtain materials or services, acts of God, or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar,
beyond Landlord’s reasonable control (sometimes referred to as “force majeure”).

     24.11 Legal Proceedings.

     In any action or proceeding involving or relating in any way to this Lease, the court or other
person or entity having jurisdiction in such action or proceeding will award to the party in whose
favor judgment is entered the actual attorneys’ fees and costs incurred. Tenant also will
indemnify Landlord for, and hold Landlord harmless from and against, all Liabilities incurred by
Landlord if Landlord becomes or is made a party to any proceeding or action (unless caused by
Landlord’s negligence or willful misconduct): (a) involving Tenant and any third party, or by or
against any person holding any interest under or using the Premises by license of or agreement with
Tenant; or (b) necessary to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease in a proceeding under the
Bankruptcy Code that involves Tenant or its Affiliates. Unless prohibited by law, Tenant and
Landlord each waives the right to trial by jury in all actions involving or related to this Lease,
the Project or any collateral or subsequent agreements between the parties, and Tenant waives any
right to impose a counterclaim in any proceeding brought for possession of the Premises as a result
of Tenant’s default (although Tenant will retain whatever rights it may have to bring a separate
claim against Landlord). Tenant and Landlord each also submits to and

 

 

agrees not to contest the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts
located in Massachusetts to adjudicate all matters in connection with this Lease and agrees that it
will bring all suits and actions only in such Massachusetts courts and not to seek a change of
venue. In any circumstance where a party is obligated to indemnify or hold harmless the other
party under this Lease, that obligation also will run in favor of the other party’s Affiliates, and
will include the obligation to protect the other party and its Affiliates, and defend them with
counsel reasonably acceptable to the other party. Counsel engaged by an insurance carrier will be
deemed acceptable by the parties. These obligations to indemnify, hold harmless, protect and
defend will survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

     24.12 Ownership: Invalidity: Remedies: Choice of Law.

     As used in this Lease, the term “Landlord” means only the current owner or owners of the fee
title to the Premises. Landlord covenants and warrants (a) that Landlord is the record owner of
the leased Premises and has the full right and title to lease the leased Premises to Tenant under
this Lease; and (b) that at the time of the delivery of the leased Premises to Tenant, the leased
Premises shall, to its knowledge, be in conformity with all applicable Laws, ordinances, by-laws,
rules and regulations of the appropriate governmental authorities. Upon each conveyance (whether
voluntary or involuntary) of fee title, the conveying party will be relieved of all Liabilities and
obligations contained in or derived from this Lease or arising out of any act, occurrence or
omission occurring after the date of such conveyance. Landlord may Transfer all or any portion of
its interests in this Lease, the Premises, or the Project without affecting Tenant’s obligations
and Liabilities under this Lease. Tenant has no right, title or interest in the name of the
Building or the Project, and may use these names only to identify its location. Any provision of
this Lease which is invalid, void or illegal will not affect, impair or invalidate any of the other
provisions and the other provisions will remain in full force and effect. Landlord’s rights and
remedies are cumulative and not exclusive. This Lease is governed by the laws of Massachusetts
applicable to transactions to be performed wholly therein.

     24.13 Expense: Consent.

     Unless otherwise provided in this Lease, a party’s obligation will be performed at that
party’s sole cost and expense, except when Landlord is performing Tenant’s obligations because of
Tenant’s default or failure to perform or as otherwise permitted in this Lease. Landlord has
agreed in a number of instances in this Lease to consent, approve or exercise its judgment
reasonably. Therefore, to avoid potential misunderstandings, except where it is expressly provided
that Landlord will hot unreasonably withhold its consent or approval or exercise its judgment
reasonably, Landlord may grant or withhold its consent or approval and exercise its judgment
arbitrarily and in its sole and absolute discretion. In any dispute involving Landlord’s
withholding of consent or exercise of judgment, the sole right and remedy of Tenant and its
Affiliates is declaratory relief (i.e., that such consent should be granted), and Tenant and its
Affiliates waive all other rights and remedies, including, without limitation, claims for damages.

     With respect to any provision of this Lease which provides, in effect, that Landlord shall not
unreasonably withhold or unreasonably delay any consent or any approval, Tenant, in no event, be
entitled to make, nor shall Tenant make, any claim for, and Tenant hereby waives any claim for
money damages; nor shall Tenant claim any money damages by way of setoff,

 

 

counterclaim or defense, based upon any claim or assertion by Tenant that Landlord
unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed any consent or approval, and Tenant’s sole remedy
shall be an action or proceeding to enforce any such provision, or for specific performance,
injunction or declaratory judgment.

     24.14 Presumptions: Exhibits: Submission.

     This Lease will be construed without regard to any presumption or other rule requiring
construction or interpretation against the party drafting the document. The titles to the Articles
and Sections of this Lease are not a part of this Lease and will have no effect on its construction
or interpretation. Whenever required by the context of this Lease, the singular includes the
plural and the plural includes the singular, and the masculine, feminine and neuter genders each
include the others, and the word “person” includes individuals, corporations, limited liability
companies, partnerships and other entities. All addenda, exhibits and riders specifically referred
to or that are meant to be attached to this Lease are incorporated in this Lease by this reference.
The submission of this Lease to Tenant or its broker, agent or attorney for review or signature is
not an offer to Tenant to lease the Premises or the grant of an option to lease to Premises. This
Lease will not be binding on either party unless and until it is executed and delivered by both
Landlord and Tenant.

     24.15 Cooperation.

     Tenant will cooperate reasonably with Landlord in connection with this Lease, Landlord’s
ownership, operation, management, improvement, maintenance, and repair of the Premises and the rest
of the Project, and Landlord’s exercise of its rights and obligations under this Lease. If
necessary, this cooperation will include, without limitation, moving machinery or equipment within
the Premises and allowing Landlord sufficient space within the Premises to enable Landlord to
perform any work that Landlord has the right or is required to perform under this Lease.

     24.16 Notices.

     Unless otherwise specified in this Lease, all notices, demands or communications required or
permitted under this Lease (“Notices”) will be in writing and will be delivered in person, or by
recognized overnight national courier (such as Federal Express or the equivalent), or by certified
mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by telecopy (and if delivered by telecopy, a
copy of the Notice also must be sent by one of the other methods above within one (1) business day
thereafter). Notices to Tenant will be delivered to the addresses as are listed in Section 1.1(l)
as receiving copies of Notices to Tenant. Notices to Landlord will be delivered to the addresses
for Landlord in Section 1.1(m) and such other addresses as are listed in Section 1.1(m) as
receiving copies of Notices to Landlord. A party may change the addresses to which Notices
directed to be delivered by written Notice to the other party in accordance with these terms.
Notices will be deemed given and received on the earlier of delivery or refusal to accept delivery,
and if delivered by telecopy when receipt is confirmed electronically, provided that a copy is also
delivered by one of the other methods described above as and when required.

     24.17 Security Deposit; Remaining Security Deposit.

 

 

     Within 30 days of the execution of this Lease, Tenant will deposit $ 0.00 with Landlord as
security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations (hereinafter the “Security Deposit”). If
Tenant fails to perform its Lease obligations as required, Landlord may, but will not be obligated
to, apply all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any amounts due or any other
Liabilities which Landlord may incur. Landlord need not keep the Security Deposit separate from
its general funds, and Tenant will not receive interest on the Security Deposit. If Tenant
complies with all of the provisions of this Lease, the unused portion of the Security Deposit will
be returned to Tenant or its assignee after the end of this Lease and the surrender of possession
of the Premises to Landlord in the condition required.

is willing to accept (an “Offer”), Landlord agrees to give Tenant an opportunity (“Right(s) of
First Refusal”) to lease the ROFR Space, provided the Tenant is not in Default at the time it
elects to exercise any Right of First Refusal or at the time the ROFR Space would be added to the
Premises. Tenant’s Right of First Refusal shall be subject and subordinate to any rights of
tenants leasing space at the Project existing as of the execution date of this Agreement.

     If Landlord intends to accept an Offer to lease any ROFR Space to which Tenant’s Right of
First Refusal is then applicable, Landlord shall deliver a copy of the Offer to Tenant, redacting
the name of the prospective Tenant and any identifying information. Tenant’s Right of First

 

 

Refusal as to any Offer shall be deemed rejected if not exercised by notice from Tenant to
Landlord (an “Exercise Notice”) given within two (2) business days after Tenant’s receipt of the
subject Offer (the “Exercise Period”). If an Exercise Notice is given by Tenant within the
Exercise Period, this Lease shall be amended such that the ROFR Space shall become part of the
Premises under this Lease as of the date set forth in the Offer. Landlord and Tenant shall, within
thirty (10) days after such Exercise Notice by Tenant, execute a lease amendment providing for the
incorporation of the ROFR Space into the Premises on the terms set forth in the Offer. Should
Tenant reject the Offer, Landlord shall be free to lease the ROFR Space to the prospective tenant
on economic terms substantially similar to those provided on the offer and Tenant shall have no
further rights with respect to such ROFR Space. If Tenant fails to lease the ROFR space to the
prospective tenant or any other prospective tenant on economic terms substantially similar to those
provided in the Offer within six months after the date Tenant rejects said Offer, then Landlord
shall be required to submit any future offers to lease on the ROFR space to Tenant in accordance
with the terms of this Section 27.

30. RENT INCREASE.

     The parties hereby agree that the Base Rent provided in Exhibit C attached hereto shall be
increased by an amount equal to the out-of-pocket costs incurred by Landlord relating to the carpet
cut-ins and accent painting (the “Upgrades”). Landlord shall determine the actual cost of the
Upgrades and provide Tenant with written notice of such cost. Upon Tenant’s receipt of such
notice, the Base Rent due under this Lease shall be increased by the amount of the Upgrades (not to
exceed $20,000) amortized over the Term of the Lease. Within 30 days of Tenant’s receipt of such
notice, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a Lease amendment which reflects the new Base Rent.

31. SIGNAGE.

     Tenant shall be responsible for all costs and expenses relating to any signage for the
Premises (except the signage to be provided by Landlord under Section 11(e)).

other purposes. Tenant will not encumber or obstruct, or permit the encumbrance or obstruction of
or store or place any materials on any of the sidewalks, plazas, entrance, corridors, elevators,
fire exits or stairways of the Project. The Landlord reserves the right to control and operate the
public portions of the Project and the public facilities, as well as facilities furnished for the
common use of the tenants, and access thereto, in such manner as it deems best.

     2. The cost of repairing any damage to the public portions of the Project or the public
facilities or to any facilities used in common with other tenants caused by Tenant or its
Affiliates will be paid by Tenant.

the Landlord, be prejudicial to the safety, character, reputation and interests of the Project or
its tenants may be denied access to the Project or may be ejected therefrom. In case of invasion,
war, terrorism, riot, public excitement or other commotion or incidence of force majeure, or if
Landlord believes that such occurrences are imminent, Landlord may prevent or limit access to the
Project or the Building during the continuance of the same, by closing the doors or otherwise, for
the safety of the tenants and/or the protection of property. Landlord will in no way be liable to
any tenant for Liabilities arising therefrom or from the admission, exclusion or ejection of any

ANDOVER, MASSACHUSETTS

LANDLORD/TENANT SPLIT OF WORKLETTER RESPONSIBILITIES FOR

Palm. Inc.

07/29/05

B.1.0-GENERAL

The Workletter is intended to show the division between the Landlord’s Work (the “Base Building”
work described as follows) and the Tenant’s Work. The Tenant’s Work includes any work not
described under the “Base Building” heading as follows, and any changes, additions or deletions to
the Landlord’s work, requested by the Tenant. All descriptions of the split between the Landlord’s
versus the Tenant’s responsibilities, with regard to HVAC, electrical, plumbing fire suppression
and life safety are for the purposes of allocating costs and installation responsibilities. The
Landlord will specify, purchase, install and balance (if applicable) all installations listed under
the Base Building heading. In order to ensure a coordinated system, any remaining systems that are
to be specified and installed by the Tenant must be approved by the Landlord, as must any
modifications or additions to the Base Building systems. The Tenant is solely responsible for
paying for and performing the Tenant’s Work. However, the Landlord reserves the right to install
the Tenant’s Work (at the Tenant’s cost) if it connects to or affects the Landlord’s Work or any
code-related or life safety-related work. The preparation of construction plans shall be deemed
part of Landlord’s Work.

The Tenant may request that the Landlord contract for all or part of the Tenant’s work. If the
Landlord agrees, this work will be deemed to be part of the Tenant’s Work, and not part of the
Landlord’s Work, and will be done at the Tenant’s sole cost, risk and liability, and the Landlord
will have no cost, risk or liability. The Landlord will not be required to advance any funds for
the Tenant’s Work, and at the Landlord’s request, the Tenant will advance, or pay to the Landlord
within seven (7) days after receipt of invoices from the Landlord, all costs (whether “hard” or
“soft” costs) incurred or which may be due in connection with the Tenant’s Work, including without
limitation, costs for permits, design, drawing, architectural, engineering and drafting services,
contractor’s overhead and profit, labor, materials and ten percent (10%) for hard and soft costs to
the Landlord for the Landlord’s supervision, coordination and involvement. The Tenant will
indemnify and hold the Landlord harmless from all damages, claims and liabilities in connection
with the Tenant’s Work.

The Landlord’s Work will be performed in accordance with the Tenant’s “space plan”, as prepared by
McMahon Architects, which is entitled, Space Plan SK-03R, and dated July 7, 2005. A reduced
photocopy of the Tenant’s “space plan” for the 200 BRICKSTONE SQUARE — 2nd Floor is included in
this Workletter. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to substantially

 

 

complete Landlord’s Work within 14 weeks of the date which is the later of (i) Landlord’s receipt
of the final space plan reviewed and approved by Tenant and signed by Ray Allison and (ii) the
execution date of this Lease(“Landlord’s Anticipated Completion Date”), provided that Landlord’s
work is not delayed by any act or omission by Tenant or any conditions outside of Landlord’s
reasonable control. In the event that Landlord has not substantially completed Landlord’s Work by
the Landlord’s Anticipated Completion Date, Tenant shall be entitled to one day of rental abatement
for each day after the Landlord’s Anticipated Completion Date that Landlord fails to substantially
complete Landlord’s Work, provided that Tenant shall receive no abatement if Landlord’s Work is
delayed as a result of Tenant’s act or omission or due to conditions outside of Landlord’s
reasonable control.

Landlord shall provide a warranty on the workmanship of Landlord’s Work for a period of one year
commencing on the date Landlord substantially completes Landlord’s Work. Such warranty shall
exclude any damage cause by Tenant’s negligence or misuse of the Premises.
