 Exhibit 10.1 

EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT 

This Executive Employment and Severance Agreement (this “Agreement”) is between Charles J. Rimer
(“Executive”) and Whiting Petroleum Corporation (“Whiting” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) and effective as of November 15, 2018 (the “Effective Date”). 

WHEREAS, the Company desires to employ Executive in a key employee capacity and expects that Executive’s services
will be valuable to the conduct of the business of the Company; and 
 WHEREAS, Whiting and Executive desire to
specify the terms and conditions on which Executive will be employed on and after the Effective Date, and under which Executive will receive severance in the event that Executive separates from service with the Company under the circumstances
described in this Agreement; and 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for the consideration described above and other good and valuable
consideration, the parties agree as follows: 
 1.    Effective Date; Term. This Agreement
shall become effective on the Effective Date and continue until the date that is one year after the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”). Thereafter, this Agreement shall renew automatically for successive one year renewal periods unless
and until either party provides written notice to the other party of the intent not to renew this Agreement at least 180 days prior to the end of the Initial Term or any subsequent term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change of Control occurs
prior to the end of the Initial Term or any subsequent term, this Agreement shall be extended automatically for a two year renewal period beginning on the date of the Change of Control (a “Post-Change of Control Renewal Period”).
Expiration of this Agreement will not affect the rights or obligations of the parties hereunder arising out of, or relating to, circumstances occurring prior to the expiration of this Agreement, which rights and obligations will survive the
expiration of this Agreement. 
 2.    Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the
following terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them:

Benefits” shall mean the following amounts, payable as described herein: (i) all base salary for the time period ending with the Termination Date; (ii) reimbursement for any and all monies advanced in connection with
Executive’s employment for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by Executive on behalf of the Company for the time period ending with the Termination Date; (iii) any and all other cash earned through the Termination Date and deferred
at the election of Executive or pursuant to any deferred compensation plan then in effect; (iv) all other payments and benefits to which Executive (or in the event of Executive’s death, Executive’s surviving spouse or other

if) Executive’s employment terminates under the circumstances described in Section 5(a), an amount equal to Executive’s annual target cash bonus opportunity (if any) as 

 
established by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board for the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
days that have elapsed during the annual performance period to the date of Executive’s Separation from Service and the denominator of which is 365. Payment of Accrued Benefits shall be made (x) with respect to clauses (i) and (ii),
promptly in accordance with the Company’s prevailing practice; (y) with respect to clauses (iii) and (iv), pursuant to the terms of the benefit plan or practice establishing such benefits; or (z) with respect to clause (v), on

Whiting’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors on the Effective Date, or whose appointment, election or
nomination for election was previously so approved (collectively the “Continuing Directors”); provided, however, that individuals who are appointed to the Board pursuant to or in accordance with the terms of an agreement relating to a
merger, consolidation, or share exchange involving Whiting (or any direct or indirect subsidiary of Whiting) shall not be Continuing Directors for purposes of this definition until after such individuals are first nominated for election by a vote of
at least two-thirds (2/3) of the then Continuing Directors and are thereafter elected as directors by the stockholders of Whiting at a meeting of stockholders held following consummation of such merger,
consolidation, or share exchange; and, provided further, that in the event the failure of any such persons appointed to the Board to be Continuing Directors results in a Change of Control, the subsequent qualification of such persons as Continuing

directly from Whiting or its Affiliates after the Effective Date, pursuant to express authorization by the Board that refers to this exception) representing 20% or more of either the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company or the
combined Voting Power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities; or 

(iv)    a complete liquidation or dissolution of Whiting is effected or there is a sale or
disposition by Whiting of all or substantially all of Whiting’s assets (in one transaction or a series of related transactions within any period of 24

securities of which are owned by Persons in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of Whiting immediately prior to such sale. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) no “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if there is
consummated any transaction or series of integrated transactions immediately following which the record holders of the outstanding Shares immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions continue to own, directly or indirectly, in the
same proportions as their ownership in Whiting, an entity that owns all or substantially all of the assets or voting securities of Whiting immediately following such transaction or series of transactions and (2) to the extent necessary for any
amounts considered to be deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, the definition of “Change of Control” herein shall be amended and interpreted in a manner that

 (iii)    If, following Executive’s
termination of employment, Executive continues to provide services to the Company or a 409A Affiliate in a capacity other than as an employee, Executive will not be deemed to have Separated from Service as long as Executive is providing bona fide

(i)    Executive shall serve in the position of Chief Operating Officer in a
full-time capacity. In such positions, Executive shall have such duties and authority as is customarily associated with such positions and shall have such other titles, duties and responsibilities, consistent with Executive’s positions, as may
be assigned from time to time by the Board. Executive will be based at the Company’s headquarters in Denver, Colorado, subject to reasonable required travel on the Company’s business. 

(ii)    Executive will devote Executive’s full business time and best efforts to the
performance of Executive’s duties hereunder and will not engage in any other business, profession or occupation for compensation or otherwise which would conflict or interfere with the rendition of such services either directly or indirectly,
without the prior written consent of the Board; provided that nothing herein shall preclude Executive, subject to the prior approval of the Board, from accepting appointment to or continue to serve on any board of directors or trustees of any
business corporation or any charitable organization, to serve on civic and charitable institutions and to manage Executive’s personal financial affairs; further provided in each case, and in the aggregate, that such activities do not
conflict or unreasonably interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder or conflict with Section 7. 

(b)    Base Salary. Whiting shall pay Executive a Base Salary in regular
installments in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll practices. The Base Salary shall be an amount equal to the annual rate of $525,000, subject to increase, but not decrease, from time to time as determined by the Board. 

(c)    Bonus and Equity Incentives. Executive shall be entitled to participate in
such annual and/or long-term cash and equity incentive plans and programs of Whiting as are generally provided to the senior executives of Whiting. If a Change of Control occurs when Executive is employed under this Agreement, then the Company shall
cause (i) all restrictions on any restricted stock or restricted stock unit awards made to Executive prior to the Change of Control to lapse such that Executive is fully and immediately vested in such awards upon such Change of Control;
(ii) any stock options or stock appreciation rights granted to Executive prior to the Change of Control pursuant to the Company’s equity-based incentive plan(s) to be fully and immediately vested upon such Change of Control; and

performance period that has elapsed through the date of the Change of Control as if all performance requirements had been satisfied at the target level (or such higher level as would have been achieved if performance through the date of the Change
of Control of had continued through the end of the performance period). In addition, on and after a Change of Control, to assure that Executive will have an opportunity to earn incentive 

  
 7 

 
compensation, Executive shall be included in a bonus plan of the Employer which shall satisfy the standards described below (such plan, the “Bonus Plan”). Bonuses under the Bonus Plan
shall be payable with respect to achieving such financial or other goals reasonably related to the business of the Company as the Company shall establish (the “Goals”), all of which Goals shall be attainable, prior to the end of the
Post-Change of Control Renewal Period, with approximately the same degree of probability as the most attainable goals under the Company’s bonus plan or plans as in effect at any time during the 180-day
period immediately prior to the Change of Control (whether one or more, the “Company Bonus Plan”) and in view of the Company’s existing and projected financial and business circumstances applicable at the time. The amount of the bonus
(the “Bonus Amount”) that Executive is eligible to earn under the Bonus Plan shall be no less than 100% of Executive’s target award provided in such Company Bonus Plan (such bonus amount herein referred to as the “Targeted
Bonus”), and in the event the Goals are not achieved such that the entire Targeted Bonus is not payable, the Bonus Plan shall provide for a payment of a Bonus Amount equal to a portion of the Targeted Bonus reasonably related to that portion of
the Goals which were achieved. Payment of the Bonus Amount shall not be affected by any circumstance occurring subsequent to the end of the Post-Change of Control Renewal Period, including termination of Executive’s employment. 

(d)    Employee Benefits. Executive shall be entitled to participate in the
Company’s employee benefit plans (other than annual and/or long-term incentive programs, which are addressed in Section 3(c)) as in effect from time to time on the same basis as those benefits are generally made available to other senior
executives of Whiting. On and after a Change of Control, Executive shall be included: (i) to the extent eligible thereunder (which eligibility shall not be conditioned on Executive’s salary grade or on any other requirement which excludes
persons of comparable status to Executive unless such exclusion was in effect for such plan or an equivalent plan immediately prior to the Change of Control), in any and all plans providing benefits for the Company’s salaried employees in
general (including but not limited to group life insurance, hospitalization, medical, dental, and long-term disability plans) and (ii) in plans provided to executives of the Company of comparable status and position to Executive (including but
not limited to deferred compensation, split-dollar life insurance, supplemental retirement, stock option, stock appreciation, stock bonus, cash bonus and similar or comparable plans); provided that in no event shall the aggregate level of
benefits under the plans described in clause (i) and the plans described in clause (ii), respectively, in which Executive is included be less than the aggregate level of benefits under plans of the Company of the type referred to in such
clause, respectively, in which Executive was participating immediately prior to the Change of Control.  

(e)    Business Expenses. The reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive in
the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder shall be reimbursed by the Company in accordance with Company policies. 

(f)    Vacation. Executive shall be entitled to five weeks of vacation per year.

  
 8 

 4.    Termination of Employment.
Executive’s employment with the Company will terminate during the term of this Agreement, and this Agreement will terminate on the date of such termination, as follows: 

(a)    Executive’s employment will terminate upon Executive’s death. 

(b)    If Executive is Disabled, and if within 30 days after Whiting notifies Executive in
writing that it intends to terminate Executive’s employment, Executive shall not have returned to the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder on a full-time basis, Whiting may terminate Executive’s employment, effective
immediately following the end of such 30-day period. 

(c)    Whiting may terminate Executive’s employment with or without Cause (other than
as a result of Disability which is governed by Section 4(b)) by providing written notice to Executive that indicates in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances alleged to provide a basis for such termination. A notice by Whiting to
Executive pursuant to Section 1 of the intent not to renew this Agreement shall not constitute termination by Whiting pursuant to this Section 4(c). If the termination is without Cause, Executive’s employment will terminate on the
date specified in the written notice of termination. If the termination is for Cause, Executive shall have 30 days from the date the written notice is provided, or such longer period as Whiting may determine to be appropriate, to cure any conduct or
act, if curable, alleged to provide grounds for termination of Executive’s employment for Cause. If the alleged conduct or act constituting Cause is not curable, Executive’s employment will terminate on the date specified in the written
notice of termination. If the alleged conduct or act constituting Cause is curable but Executive does not cure such conduct or act within the specified time period, Executive’s employment will terminate on the date immediately following the end
of the cure period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, on and after a Change of Control, a determination of Cause shall only be made by the Board of Directors of the Successor, which may terminate Executive for Cause only after
providing Executive (i) written notice as set forth above, (ii) the opportunity to appear before such board and provide rebuttal to such proposed termination, and (iii) written notice following such appearance confirming such
termination and certifying that the decision to terminate Executive for Cause was approved by at least 66% of the members of such board, excluding Executive. Unless otherwise directed by Whiting, from and after the date of the written notice of
proposed termination, Executive shall be relieved of his or her duties and responsibilities and shall be considered to be on a paid leave of absence pending any final action by Whiting or the Board of Directors of the Successor confirming such
proposed termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if a Change of Control occurs and Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated (other than a termination due to Executive’s death or as a result of
Disability) during the period of 180 days prior to the date on which the Change of Control occurs, and if it is reasonably demonstrated by Executive that such termination of employment (x) was at the request of a third party who has taken steps
reasonably calculated to effect a Change of Control or (y) otherwise arose in connection with or in anticipation of a Change of Control, then for all purposes of this Agreement such termination of employment shall be deemed a termination
following such Change of Control. 

  
 9 

 (d)    Executive may terminate his or
her employment for or without Good Reason by providing written notice of termination to Whiting that indicates in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances alleged to provide a basis for such termination. If Executive is alleging a termination
for Good Reason, Executive must provide written notice to Whiting of the existence of the condition constituting Good Reason within 90 days of the initial existence of such condition, and Whiting must have a period of at least 30 days following
receipt of such notice to cure such condition. If such condition is not cured by Whiting with such 30-day period, Executive’s termination of employment from the Company shall be effective on the date
immediately following the end of such cure period. 
 5.    Payments upon Termination.

 (a)    Entitlement to Severance. Subject to the other terms and conditions of
this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to the Accrued Benefits, and to the severance benefits described in Section 5(c), in either of the following circumstances while this Agreement is in effect: 

(i)    Executive’s employment is terminated by Whiting without Cause, except in the
case of death or Disability; or 
 (ii)    Executive terminates his or her employment
with the Company for Good Reason. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, if Executive dies or becomes Disabled after receiving a
notice by Whiting that Executive is being terminated without Cause, or after providing notice of termination for Good Reason, then Executive’s estate, heirs and beneficiaries, in the case of the Executive’s death, or Executive or his or
her personal representative, in the case of Executive’s Disability, shall be entitled to the Accrued Benefits and the severance benefits described in Section 5(c) at the same time such amounts would have been paid or benefits provided to
Executive had he or she lived or not become Disabled. 
 (b)    General Release
Requirement. As an additional prerequisite for receipt of the severance benefits described in Section 5(c), Executive must execute, deliver to Whiting, and not revoke (to the extent Executive is allowed to do so) the General Release within
22 calendar days following the termination of Executive’s employment. 

(c)    Severance Benefits; Timing and Form of Payment. Subject to the limitations
imposed by Section 6, if Executive is entitled to severance benefits, then: 

(i)    Company shall pay Executive the Severance Payment in a lump sum in cash on the
first day of the seventh month following the month in which Executive’s Separation from Service occurs, without interest thereon; provided that, if on the date of Executive’s Separation from Service, neither Whiting nor any other entity
that is considered a “service recipient” with respect to Executive 

  
 10 

 
within the meaning of Code Section 409A has any stock that is publicly traded on an established securities market (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.897-1(m)) or otherwise, then the Severance Payment shall be paid to Executive in cash forty-five (45) days following the date of Executive’s Separation from Service. 

(ii)    Until the earlier of 18 months after the date of Executive’s Separation from
Service or such time as Executive has obtained new employment and is covered by benefits which in the aggregate are at least equal in value to the following benefits, Executive shall continue to be covered, at the expense of the Company, by the same
or equivalent life insurance, hospitalization, medical, dental and vision coverage as Executive received (or, if higher, as was required hereunder) immediately prior to Executive’s Separation from Service, subject to the following: 

(A)    Following the end of the COBRA continuation period, if such hospitalization,
medical or dental coverage is provided under a health plan that is subject to Section 105(h) of the Code, benefits payable under such health plan shall comply with the requirements of Treasury regulation section
1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) and, if necessary, the Employer shall amend such health plan to comply therewith. 

(B)    If provision of any such health benefits would subject the Company or its benefits
arrangements to a penalty or adverse tax treatment, then the Company shall provide a cash payment to Executive in an amount reasonably determined by the Company to be equivalent to the COBRA premiums for similar benefits. 

(C)    During the first six months following Executive’s Separation from Service,
Executive shall pay the Company for any life insurance coverage that provides a benefit in excess of $50,000 under a group term life insurance policy. After the end of such six month period, the Company shall make a cash payment to Executive equal
to the aggregate premiums paid by Executive for such coverage, and thereafter such coverage shall be provided at the expense of the Company for the remainder of the period as set forth above; provided that this clause (C) shall cease to apply
if on the date of Executive’s Separation from Service, neither Whiting nor any other entity that is considered a “service recipient” with respect to Executive within the meaning of Code Section 409A has any stock which is
publicly traded on an established securities market (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-1(m)) or otherwise. 

(D)    If Executive’s Separation from Service occurs following a Change of Control,
such benefits shall be provided until the earlier of 24 months after the date of Executive’s Separation from Service or such time as Executive has obtained new employment and is covered by benefits which in the aggregate are at least equal in
value to the benefits described in the first sentence of this subsection. 

  
 11 

 All payments shall be subject to payroll taxes and other withholdings in
accordance with the Company’s (or the applicable employer of record’s) standard payroll practices and applicable law. 

(d)    Other Termination of Employment. If Executive’s employment terminates
for any reason other than those described in Section 5(a), Executive (or Executive’s estate in the event of his or her death), shall be entitled to receive only the Accrued Benefits. 

6.    Limitations on Severance Payments and Benefits. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, if any portion of the Severance Payment or any other payment under this Agreement, or under any other agreement with or plan of the Company (in the aggregate “Total Payments”), would constitute an “excess
parachute payment,” then the Total Payments to be made to Executive shall be reduced such that the value of the aggregate Total Payments that Executive is entitled to receive shall be One Dollar ($1) less than the maximum amount which Executive
may receive without becoming subject to the tax imposed by Code Section 4999 or which the Company may pay without loss of deduction under Code Section 280G(a); provided that the foregoing reduction in the amount of Total Payments
shall not apply if the After-Tax Value to Executive of the Total Payments prior to reduction in accordance herewith is greater than the After-Tax Value to Executive if
Total Payments are reduced in accordance herewith. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “excess parachute payment” and “parachute payments” shall have the meanings assigned to them in Code Section 280G, and such
“parachute payments” shall be valued as provided therein. Present value for purposes of this Agreement shall be calculated in accordance with Code Section 1274(b)(2). Within 20 business days following delivery of the notice of
termination or notice by Whiting to Executive of its belief that there is a payment or benefit due Executive that will result in an excess parachute payment as defined in Code Section 280G, Executive and Whiting, at Whiting’s expense,
shall obtain the opinion (which need not be unqualified) of nationally recognized tax counsel selected by Whiting, which opinion sets forth: (A) the amount of the Base Period Income, (B) the amount and present value of Total Payments,
(C) the amount and present value of any excess parachute payments without regard to the limitations of this Section 6, (D) the After-Tax Value of the Total Payments if the reduction in Total Payments
contemplated under this Section 6 did not apply, and (E) the After-Tax Value of the Total Payments taking into account the reduction in Total Payments contemplated under this Section 6. As used
in this Section 6, the term “Base Period Income” means an amount equal to Executive’s “annualized includible compensation for the base period” as defined in Code Section 280G(d)(1). For purposes of such opinion,
the value of any noncash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by Whiting’s independent auditors in accordance with the principles of Code Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4), which determination shall be evidenced in a
certificate of such auditors addressed to Whiting and Executive. For purposes of determining the After-Tax Value of Total Payments, Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes and employment taxes at
the highest marginal rate of federal income and employment taxation in the calendar year in which the Termination Payment is to be made and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates of taxation in the state and locality of
Executive’s domicile for income tax 

  
 12 

 
purposes on the date the Termination Payment is to be made, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that may be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. Such opinion
shall be dated as of the Termination Date and addressed to Whiting and Executive and shall be binding upon the Company and Executive. If such opinion determines that there would be an excess parachute payment and that the After-Tax Value of the Total Payments taking into account the reduction contemplated under this Section is greater than the After-Tax Value of the Total Payments if the
reduction in Total Payments contemplated under this Section did not apply, then the Termination Payment hereunder or any other payment determined by such counsel to be includible in Total Payments shall be reduced or eliminated as specified by
Executive in writing delivered to Whiting within five business days of Executive’s receipt of such opinion or, if Executive fails to so notify Whiting, then as Whiting shall reasonably determine, so that under the bases of calculations set
forth in such opinion there will be no excess parachute payment. If such legal counsel so requests in connection with the opinion required by this Section, Executive and Whiting shall obtain, at Whiting’s expense, and the legal counsel may rely
on in providing the opinion, the advice of a firm of recognized executive compensation consultants as to the reasonableness of any item of compensation to be received by Executive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this
Section 6, including the calculations, notices and opinions provided for herein, shall be based upon the conclusive presumption that the following are reasonable: (1) the compensation and benefits provided for in Section 3 and
(2) any other compensation, including but not limited to the Accrued Benefits, earned prior to the date of Executive’s Separation from Service by Executive pursuant to the Company’s compensation programs if such payments would have
been made in the future in any event, even though the timing of such payment is triggered by the Change of Control or Executive’s Separation from Service. If the provisions of Code Sections 280G and 4999 are repealed without succession,
then this Section 6 shall be of no further force or effect. 
 7.    Covenants by
Executive. 
 (a)    Confidentiality. In consideration for
Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive agrees that Executive shall, during Executive’s employment with the Company and thereafter, maintain the confidentiality of any and all information about the Company which is not generally
known or available outside the Company, including without limitation, strategic plans, technical and operating know-how, business strategy, trade secrets, customer information, business operations and other
proprietary information (“Confidential Information”), and Executive will not, directly or indirectly, disclose any Confidential Information to any person or entity, or use any Confidential Information, whether for Executive’s own
benefit, the benefit of any new employer or any other person or entity or any other purpose, in any manner. If Executive receives notice that he must disclose Confidential Information pursuant to a subpoena or other lawful process, Executive must
notify the Company immediately. Upon termination of employment with the Company, Executive will immediately return to the Company all written or electronically stored confidential or proprietary information in whatever format it is contained. 

  
 13 

(b)    
Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation. 

(i)    During Executive’s employment with the Company and for a period of one year
following Executive’s Termination Date if such Termination Date occurs prior to a Change of Control or two years following Executive’s Termination Date if such Termination Date occurs after a Change of Control (each, a “Restricted
Period”), Executive agrees that Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, manage, operate, join, control, be employed by or participate in the management, operation or control of, or be connected in any manner with, including, without
limitation, holding any position as a stockholder, director, officer, consultant, independent contractor, employee, partner or investor in, any operations of a business that are in competition with the business of the Company in the material plays
or fields in which the Company has or proposes to have operations as set forth on Exhibit A to this Agreement, which Exhibit A may be modified prior to the time of Executive’s termination of employment by the Board upon written notification of
such modification to Executive (the “Whiting Plays and Fields”); provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7(b) shall prohibit Executive from (A) participating in operations of a business to the extent such
operations are not in competition with the business of the Company in the Whiting Plays and Fields, or (B) participating solely as a passive investor in oil wells or similar investments, owning 5% or less of the outstanding securities of any
class of any issuer whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, or making passive investments in any hedge, private equity or mutual fund or similar investment vehicle. 

(ii)    During Executive’s employment with the Company and during the applicable
Restricted Period, Executive agrees not to, in any form or manner, directly or indirectly, on his or her own behalf or in combination with others (A) solicit, induce or influence any customer, supplier, lender, lessor or any other person with a
business relationship with the Company to discontinue or reduce the extent of such business relationship, or (B) recruit, solicit or otherwise induce or influence any employee of the Company to discontinue their employment with the Company.

 (c)    Disclosure and Assignment to the Company of Inventions and Innovations.

 (i)    Executive agrees to disclose and assign to the Company as the Company’s
exclusive property, all inventions and technical or business innovations, including but not limited to all patentable and copyrightable subject matter (collectively, the “Innovations”) developed, authored or conceived by Executive solely
or jointly with others during the period of Executive’s employment, including during Executive’s employment prior to the date of this Agreement, (1) that are along the lines of the business, work or investigations of the Company to
which Executive’s employment relates or as to which Executive may receive information due to Executive’s employment with the Company, or (2) that result from or are suggested by any work which Executive may do for the Company or
(3) that are otherwise made through the use of Company time, facilities or materials. To the extent any of the Innovations is copyrightable, each such Innovation shall be considered a “work for hire.” 

  
 14 

 (ii)    Executive agrees to execute all
necessary papers and otherwise provide proper assistance (at the Company’s expense), during and subsequent to Executive’s employment, to enable the Company to obtain for itself or its nominees, all right, title, and interest in and to
patents, copyrights, trademarks or other legal protection for such Innovations in any and all countries. 

(iii)    Executive agrees to make and maintain for the Company adequate and current
written records of all such Innovations; 
 (iv)    Upon any termination of
Executive’s employment, employee agrees to deliver to the Company promptly all items which belong to the Company or which by their nature are for the use of Company employees only, including, without limitation, all written and other materials
which are of a secret or confidential nature relating to the business of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, upon any such termination, Executive may make and retain an electronic copy of Executive’s contacts list and calendar. 

(v)    In the event Company is unable for any reason whatsoever to secure Executive’s
signature to any lawful and necessary documents required, including those necessary for the assignment of, application for, or prosecution of any United States or foreign application for letters patent or copyright for any Innovation, Executive
hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Executive’s agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and in
Executive’s behalf and stead to execute and file any such applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the assignment, prosecution, and issuance of letters patent or registration of copyright thereon with the same legal
force and effect as if executed by Executive. Executive hereby waives and quitclaims to Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, which Executive may now have or may hereafter have for infringement of any patent or copyright resulting
from any such application. 
 (d)    Remedies Not Exclusive. In the event that
Executive breaches any terms of this Section 7, Executive acknowledges and agrees that said breach may result in the immediate and irreparable harm to the business and goodwill of the Company and that damages, if any, and remedies of law for
such breach may be inadequate and indeterminable. The Company, upon Executive’s breach of this Section 7, shall therefore be entitled (in addition to and without limiting any other remedies that the Company may seek under this Agreement or
otherwise at law or in equity) to seek from any court of competent jurisdiction equitable relief by way of temporary or permanent injunction and without being required to post a bond, to restrain any violation of this Section 7, and for such
further relief as the court may deem just or proper in law or equity. The prevailing party in any action to enforce this Section 7 shall be entitled to reimbursement by the other party for the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys fees
and costs. 

  
 15 

 (e)    Severability of
Provisions. If any restriction, limitation, or provision of this Section 7 is deemed to be unreasonable, onerous, or unduly restrictive by a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall not be stricken in its entirety and held totally void and
unenforceable, but shall remain effective to the maximum extent possible within the bounds of the law. If any phrase, clause or provision of this Section 7 is declared invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such phrase,
clause, or provision shall be deemed severed from this Section 7, but will not affect any other provision of this Section 7, which shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. The provisions of this Section 7 are each declared to
be separate and distinct covenants by Executive. 
 8.    Notice. Any notice, request,
demand or other communication required or permitted herein will be deemed to be properly given when personally served in writing or when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to Executive at the address appearing at the end
of this Agreement and to the Company with attention to the Chief Executive Officer of Whiting and the General Counsel of Whiting. Either party may change its address by written notice in accordance with this paragraph. 

9.    Set Off; Mitigation. The Company’s obligation to pay Executive the amounts and to
provide the benefits hereunder shall be subject to set-off, counterclaim or recoupment of amounts owed by Executive to the Company. However, Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any
payment provided for pursuant to this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise. 

10.    Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective executors, administrators, successors and assigns. If Whiting experiences a Change of Control, or otherwise sells, assigns or transfers all or substantially all of its business and assets to any person or
if Whiting merges into or consolidates or otherwise combines (where Whiting does not survive such combination) with any person (any such event, a “Sale of Business”), then Whiting shall assign all of its right, title and interest in this
Agreement as of the date of such event to such person, and Whiting shall cause such person, by written agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Executive, to expressly assume and agree to perform from and after the date of such
assignment all of the terms, conditions and provisions imposed by this Agreement upon the Company. Failure of Whiting to obtain such agreement prior to the effective date of such Sale of Business shall be a breach of this Agreement constituting
“Good Reason” hereunder, except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing the date upon which such Sale of Business becomes effective shall be the Termination Date. In case of such assignment by Whiting and of assumption and
agreement by such person, as used in this Agreement, “Whiting” shall thereafter mean the person which executes and delivers the agreement provided for in this Section 10 or which otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and provisions
of this Agreement by operation of law, and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, such person. Executive shall, in his or her discretion, be entitled to proceed against any or all of such persons, any person which
theretofore was such a successor to Whiting, and Whiting (as so defined) in any action to enforce any rights of Executive hereunder. Except as provided in this Section 10, this Agreement shall not be assignable by Whiting. This Agreement shall
not be terminated by the voluntary or involuntary dissolution of Whiting. 

  
 16 

 11.    Arbitration. Any controversy or
claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach of this Agreement that cannot be mutually resolved by Executive and the Company, including any dispute as to the calculation of Executive’s Benefits, Base Salary, Bonus Amount or
any Severance Payment hereunder, shall be submitted to arbitration in Colorado in accordance with the procedures of the American Arbitration Association. The determination of the arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and
Executive, and judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction. 

12.    Applicable Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement is to be governed by and construed
under the laws of the United States and of the State of Colorado without resort to Colorado’s choice of law rules. Each party hereby agrees that the forum and venue for any legal or equitable action or proceeding arising out of, or in
connection with, this Agreement will lie in the appropriate federal or state courts in the State of Colorado and specifically waives any and all objections to such jurisdiction and venue. 

13.    Captions and Paragraph Headings. Captions and paragraph headings used herein are for
convenience only and are not a part of this Agreement and will not be used in construing it. 

14.    Invalid Provisions. Subject to Section 7(e), should any provision of this
Agreement for any reason be declared invalid, void, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity and binding effect of any remaining portion will not be affected, and the remaining portions of this Agreement will remain in
full force and effect as if this Agreement had been executed with said provision eliminated. 

15.    No Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this
Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver of such party’s rights or deprive such party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. 

16.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties with
respect to the subject matter of this Agreement except where other agreements are specifically noted, adopted, or incorporated by reference. This Agreement otherwise supersedes any and all other agreements, either oral or in writing, between the
parties hereto with respect to the employment of Executive by Company, and all such agreements shall be void and of no effect. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that no representations, inducements, promises, or agreements, oral or
otherwise, have been made by any party, or anyone acting on behalf of any party, which are not embodied herein, and that no other agreement, statement, or promise not contained in this Agreement will be valid or binding. 

17.    Modification. This Agreement may not be modified or amended by oral agreement, but
only by an agreement in writing signed by Whiting and Executive. 
 18.    Counterparts.
This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

 EXHIBIT B 

FORM OF GENERAL RELEASE 

This Separation Agreement and General Release (“Agreement”) is between Whiting Petroleum Corporation, which in this
Agreement is referred to as “Whiting Petroleum” or the Employer, and Charles J. Rimer, who is referred to as “Rimer” or the Employee. 

1.    Background. Whiting Petroleum and Rimer acknowledge that Rimer’s employment with
Whiting Petroleum is ending (or has ended), effective [Date]. Both Rimer and Whiting Petroleum desire an amicable separation and to fully and finally compromise and settle any differences that may exist between them on the terms set forth in this
Agreement. 
 2.    Employment Termination. Rimer understands that his employment with
Whiting Petroleum is considered ended and his separation from service was effective [Date] (the “Separation Date”), based on reasons discussed between Rimer and Whiting Petroleum. Whiting Petroleum and Rimer are subject to an Executive
Employment and Severance Agreement dated [Date] (“Employment Agreement”) that provides for Rimer’s receipt of certain separation benefits if he executes an agreement with a general release of all claims that is acceptable to Whiting
Petroleum: this is that agreement. 
 3.    Severance Pay and Benefits. In return for the
execution of this Agreement, it becoming effective (see paragraph 18), and Rimer honoring (and continuing to honor) all of its terms, Whiting Petroleum will provide Rimer with the severance pay and benefits in accordance with
Section 5.c. of the Employment Agreement. 
 4.    Acknowledgement. Rimer understands
that the severance pay and benefits identified in paragraph 3 above will not be paid or provided unless he accepts this Agreement, it becomes effective (see paragraph 18), and he honors (and continues to honor) all of its terms. 

5.    Release. Rimer understands and agrees that his acceptance of this Agreement means
that, except as stated in paragraph 7, he is forever waiving and giving up any and all claims he may have, whether known or unknown, against Whiting Petroleum, its parent, subsidiaries, and related companies, their insurers, their
officers, directors, employees and agents for any personal monetary relief for himself, benefits or remedies that are based on any act or failure to act that occurred before he signed this Agreement. Rimer understands that this release and
waiver of claims includes claims for or relating to: (a) his employment and the termination of his employment; (b) any Whiting Petroleum policy, practice, contract or agreement, including, but not limited, to the Employment Agreement;
(c) any tort or personal injury relating to Rimer’s employment or termination of employment; (d) any policies, practices, laws or agreements governing the payment of wages, commissions or other compensation, including, but not
limited, to the Colorado Wage Act, the Colorado Minimum Wage Order No. 30, and all terms for compensation under the Employment Agreement; (e) any laws governing employment discrimination or retaliation including (to the extent applicable),
but not limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), the Older Worker Benefit Protection Act, the Genetic
Information Nondiscrimination Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act, C.R.S. 24-34-401
et seq., the City and County of Denver’s Anti-Discrimination Ordinance, and any other applicable state or local laws; (f) any laws or agreements that provide for punitive, exemplary or statutory damages; and (g) any laws or
agreements that provide for the payment of attorney fees, costs or expenses. 

 6.    Future Employment. Rimer agrees that
he is not now or hereafter entitled to employment or reemployment with Whiting Petroleum and he agrees not to knowingly seek such employment, on any basis or through an employment agency. Rimer further agrees and acknowledges that should he apply
for any position in contradiction of this paragraph, Whiting Petroleum may completely ignore such application and fail to consider it based on this paragraph. 

7.    Claims Not Waived. Rimer understands that this Agreement does not waive any
claims that he may have: (a) for compensation for illness or injury or medical expenses under any worker’s compensation statute; (b) for benefits under any plan currently maintained by Whiting Petroleum that provides for retirement
benefits (however, Rimer agrees and acknowledges that the severance pay and benefits provided in paragraph 3 above shall not be considered or included for purposes of any retirement benefit contribution or plan); (c) under any law or any policy
or plan currently maintained by Whiting Petroleum that provides health insurance continuation or conversion rights; (d) to indemnity, defense or insurance coverage for acts undertaken by him within the scope and course of his employment
pursuant to applicable directors and officers insurance coverage, laws requiring indemnification for such acts, or the bylaws of the Company that require such indemnification; (e) under this Agreement; or (f) that by law cannot be released
or waived. 
 8.    Government Cooperation. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits
Rimer from cooperating with any government agency, including the National Labor Relations Board or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or any similar State agency. Further, Rimer understands that nothing in this Agreement (including any
obligation in Paragraphs 5 or 9) prohibit him from reporting a possible violation of federal, state, or local law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the Congress, or any agency (including but not limited to the National Labor Relations Board or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) or Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under any whistleblower
provision of federal, state, or local law or regulation. 
 9.    Prior Confidentiality
Agreement(s). Rimer agrees and understands that this Agreement does not supersede any obligation to which he was subject under a prior agreement while employed with Whiting Petroleum that addresses confidentiality, noncompetition, patents or
copyright. Rimer acknowledges that he was, and continues to be, subject to those obligations contained in Section 7, and all subsections to Section 7, of the Employment Agreement, and that he is expressly
re-affirming his commitment to those obligations by executing this Agreement, and acknowledging that his failure to abide by such obligations will constitute a material breach of this Agreement. 

10.    Trade Secrets/Defend Trade Secrets Act. Nothing in this Agreement (or any prior
agreement on confidentiality to which Rimer may be subject) diminishes or limits any protection granted by law to trade secrets or relieves Rimer of any duty not to disclose, use, or misappropriate any information that is a trade secret, for as long
as such information remains a trade secret. Additionally, nothing in this Agreement (or any prior agreement on confidentiality 

  
 2 

 
to which Rimer may be subject) is intended to discourage Rimer from reporting any theft of trade secrets to the appropriate government official pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016
(“DTSA”) or other applicable state or federal law. Additionally, under the DTSA, a trade secret may be disclosed to report a suspected violation of law and/or in an anti-retaliation lawsuit, as follows: 

a.    An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or
State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (A) is made (1) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (2) solely for the purpose of
reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. 

b.    An individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a
suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual: (A) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and
(B) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Nothing in this Agreement (or any prior agreement on confidentiality to which Rimer may be subject) shall limit, curtail or diminish the Whiting Petroleum’s statutory
rights under the DTSA, any applicable state law regarding trade secrets or common law. 

11.    Relinquishment Of Positions. As of the Separation Date, Rimer acknowledges that he
has fully and completely relinquished any and all officerships, directorships or other positions that he held with Whiting Petroleum and any of its affiliates. 

12.    Nonadmission. Rimer and Whiting Petroleum both acknowledge and agree that nothing in
this Agreement is meant to suggest that Whiting Petroleum has violated any law or contract or that Rimer has any claim against Whiting Petroleum. 

13.    Voluntary Agreement. Rimer acknowledges and states that he has entered into this
Agreement knowingly and voluntarily. 
 14.    Consulting An Attorney. Rimer acknowledges
that Whiting Petroleum has told him that he should consult an attorney of his own choice about this Agreement and every matter that it covers before signing this Agreement, and that he has been provided an meaningful opportunity for such
consultation. 
 15.    Obligation to Pay Attorney Fees and Costs. Rimer understands and
agrees that if he violates the commitments he has made in this Agreement, Whiting Petroleum may seek to recover any payments and/or the value of any benefits provided in this Agreement, with the exception of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000), and
that, except as provided in paragraph 16, he will be responsible for paying the actual attorney fees and costs incurred by Whiting Petroleum in enforcing this Agreement or in defending a claim released by paragraph 5. 

16.    Exception to Attorney Fees Obligation. The obligation to pay Whiting Petroleum’s
attorney fees and costs does not apply to an action by Rimer regarding the validity of this Agreement under the ADEA. 

  
 3 

 17.    Complete Agreement. Rimer
understands and agrees that this document contains the entire agreement between him and Whiting Petroleum relating to his employment and the termination of his employment, that this Agreement, except as provided in paragraph 9, supersedes and
displaces any prior agreements and discussions relating to such matters and that he may not rely on any such prior agreements or discussions. 

18.    Effective Date. This Agreement shall not be effective until seven (7) days after
Rimer signs it and returns it to Whiting Petroleum’s Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary. During that seven (7)-day period, Rimer may revoke his acceptance of this Agreement by
delivering to Whiting Petroleum’s Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary a written statement stating he wishes to revoke this Agreement or not be bound by it. 

19.    Final and Binding Effect. Rimer understands that if he signs this Agreement, returns
it to Whiting Petroleum, and fails to revoke it consistent with paragraph 18, it will have a final and binding effect and that by signing and returning this Agreement (and not revoking it) he may be giving up legal rights. Rimer also acknowledges
that this Agreement may be signed in counter-parts (meaning by him and Whiting Petroleum separately) and that facsimile, copy or PDF copy signatures shall be treated as just as valid as original signatures. 

20.    Exclusive Jurisdiction and Venue. This Agreement is to be governed by and
construed under the laws of the United States and of the State of Colorado without resort to Colorado’s choice of law rules. Whiting Petroleum and Rimer agree that the forum and venue for any legal or equitable action or proceeding arising out
of, or in connection with, this Agreement will lie in the appropriate federal or state courts in the State of Colorado and each specifically waives any and all objections to such jurisdiction and venue. 

21.    Future Cooperation. Rimer agrees to reasonably cooperate with Whiting Petroleum in
the future and to provide to Whiting Petroleum truthful information, testimony or affidavits requested in connection with any matter that arose during Rimer’s employment. This cooperation may be performed at reasonable times and places and in a
manner as to not interfere with any other employment or business activities that Rimer may have at the time of request. Whiting Petroleum agrees to reimburse Rimer for expenses incurred in providing such cooperation, so long as such expenses are
approved in advance by Whiting Petroleum, including, if applicable, any legal fees and expenses reasonably incurred by Rimer if Rimer and Whiting Petroleum agree in good faith that Rimer should retain counsel independent of the counsel for Whiting
Petroleum in order to cooperate as provided hereinabove. 
 22.    Return of Property.
Rimer acknowledges an obligation and agrees to return all Whiting Petroleum property, unless otherwise specified in this paragraph. This includes all files, memoranda, documents, records, credit cards, keys and key cards, computers, laptops,
personal digital assistants, cellular telephones, Blackberry devices or similar instruments, other equipment of any sort, badges, vehicles, and any other property of Whiting Petroleum. In addition, Rimer agrees to provide any and all access codes or
passwords necessary to gain access to any computer, program or other equipment that belongs to Whiting Petroleum or is maintained by Whiting Petroleum or on company property. Further, Rimer acknowledges an obligation and agrees not to destroy,
delete or disable any company property, including items, files and materials on computers and laptops.

 23.    Divisibility of Agreement or Modification
by Court. Rimer understands that, to the extent permitted by law, the invalidity of any provision of this Agreement will not and shall not be deemed to affect the validity of any other provision. Rimer agrees that in the event that any
provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, it shall be, to the extent permitted by law, modified as necessary to be interpreted in a manner most consistent with the present terms of the provision, to give effect to the provision. Finally, in
the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid and not capable of modification by a court, then Rimer understands and agrees that such provision shall be considered expunged (eliminated), and he further agrees that the
remaining provisions shall be treated as in full force and effect as if this Agreement had been executed by Rimer after the expungement (elimination) of the invalid provision. 

24.    Representations. By signing this Agreement, Rimer represents that he has read this
entire document and understands all of its terms. 

25.    21-Day Consideration Period. Rimer may
consider whether to sign and accept this Agreement for a period of twenty-one (21) days from the day he received it. If this Agreement is not signed, dated and returned to Whiting Petroleum’s Vice
President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary within twenty-two (22) days, the offer of severance payments and benefits described in paragraph 3above will no longer be available. Rimer acknowledges
that should he sign and return this Agreement within the 21-day period identified in this subparagraph, he is knowingly waiving whatever additional time he may have up to the conclusion of the 21-day period for consideration of this Agreement.

WHEREAS, Tenant desires to: (i) extend the Term of the lease for an additional period; and (ii) lease the Expansion Premises from Landlord on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;

 

WHEREAS, Landlord is willing to: (i) extend the Term of the lease; and (ii) accept the Recapture Offer and demise the Expansion Premises to Tenant on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;

 

NOW THEREFORE, the above described lease (the “Lease”), is hereby amended as follows:

 

 

1.                                      EXTENSION OF TERM

 

The Term of the Lease is hereby extended for an additional term (the “Additional Term”) commencing on May 1, 2024, and expiring on the date (“Extended Expiration Date”) ten (10) years after the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date, as hereinafter defined, except that if the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date does not occur on the first day of a calendar month, then the Extended Expiration Date shall be the last day of the calendar month in which the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date. The Additional Term shall be upon all of the same terms and conditions of the Lease in effect immediately preceding the Additional Term (including, without limitation, Tenant’s obligation to pay Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Tenant’s Share of Taxes), except as set forth in this First Amendment.

 

2.                                      DEMISE OF THE EXPANSION PREMISES

 

Landlord hereby demises and leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, the Expansion Premises for a Term commencing on the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date, as hereinafter defined, and expiring on the Extended Expiration Date. The Expansion Premises shall, as of the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date be deemed to be part of the Premises. Said demise of the Expansion Premises shall be upon all of the terms and conditions of the Lease applicable to the Existing Premises, except as set forth in this First Amendment:

 

A.                                    Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date.

 

(a)                                 Definition. The “Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date” is the later of: (x) the Target Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date, as hereinafter defined, or (y) the date that Landlord delivers the Expansion Premises to Tenant in Delivery Condition (as defined in Section 4 below). The “Target Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date” shall be defined as June 1, 2019 or such earlier date as the parties and Quanterix may agree in writing. Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that, upon Landlord’s acceptance of the Recapture Offer: (i) the Quanterix Lease will terminate on May 31, 2019, and (ii) Quanterix will have no further right to extend its Lease. Landlord shall not enter into any agreement with Quanterix to extend the term of the Quanterix Lease beyond May 31, 2019, nor shall Landlord otherwise take any actions to create a new lease or renewal of Quanterix Lease that is effective after May 31, 2019.

 

(b)                                 Net Holdover Premium. If Landlord fails, on or before the Target Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date, to deliver the Expansion Premises to Tenant in the Delivery Condition, as defined in Section 4 below, then: (i) Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Quanterix to deliver the Expansion Premises to Landlord in the Delivery Condition as soon as reasonably possible after the Target Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date (including, without limitation, commencing and diligently prosecuting summary process proceedings against Quanterix if Quanterix continues to physically occupy the Expansion Premises after the Target Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date), and (ii) Landlord shall pay to Tenant any Net Holdover Premium, as hereinafter defined, which Landlord actually receives from Quanterix, within ten (10) days after Landlord receives such Net Holdover Premium. “Net Holdover Premium” shall be defined as the excess (if any) of any rent and/or use and occupancy charges paid by Quanterix to Landlord with respect to the period of Quanterix’s

 

2

 

occupancy of the Expansion Premises after the Target Expansion Term Commencement Date in excess of the amount of rent which Quanterix would have paid to Landlord during such hold over period but for Landlord’s acceptance of the Recapture Offer, less any reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by Landlord in attempting to recover Net Holdover Premium; Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to collect any such holdover rents.

 

(c)                                  Early Access. Subject in all events to the rights of Quanterix under the Quanterix Lease, Tenant may, upon at least two (2) business days’ notice, request that Tenant shall have the right to access the Expansion Premises prior to the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date for the sole purposes of taking measurements and other non-construction activities to facilitate space planning, provided that such access does not interfere (other than in a deminimus way) with the use or enjoyment of the Quanterix Premises by Quanterix. Any such entry shall be at Tenant’s sole risk and both Landlord and Quanterix shall have the right to have representatives present during such access.

 

B.                                    Definition of Expansion Premises Rent Commencement Date. The “Expansion Premises Rent Commencement Date” shall mean the Expansion Premises Commencement Date.

 

C.                                    Tenant’s Share. Tenant’s Share with respect to the Expansion Premises is 29.53%

 

D.                                    Existing Expansion Premises Improvements. Landlord hereby agrees that Tenant shall have no obligation to remove from the Expansion Premises any improvements which exist in the Expansion Premises as of the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date.

 

E.                                     Additional Rooftop Premises. The “Additional Rooftop Premises” shall mean the area located on the roof of the Building, as shown on the plan attached hereto as Exhibit B, First Amendment. Commencing as of the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date and continuing throughout the remainder of the Term, Tenant shall have the right to use the Additional Rooftop Premises for Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment serving the Premises. Tenant’s use of the Additional Rooftop Premises shall be on the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the Rooftop Premises, as set forth in Section 1.3(c) of the Lease, and the other provisions of the Lease (to the extent applicable). Landlord hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (i) Landlord has consented to the installation of equipment (“Existing Rooftop Equipment”) which exists on the Additional Rooftop Premises as of the Execution Date of this Amendment, (ii) Tenant shall have the right to use any Existing Rooftop Equipment which remains on the Additional Rooftop Premises as of the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date, and (iii) such Existing Rooftop Premises shall be deemed to part of Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment.

 

F.                                     Expansion Premises Generator.

 

Reference is made to the Caterpillar Model D100-6 100 kw emergency generator (“Expansion Premises Emergency Back-up Generator”) which is located in the area (“Expansion Premises Generator Location”) shown on Exhibit C, First Amendment. Landlord agrees that Tenant shall have the right to use the Expansion Premises Back-up Generator throughout the Term of the Lease with respect to the Expansion Premises on the terms and conditions of this Section 2F and on the terms and conditions of Section 1.3(d) of the Lease, to the extent that Section 1.3(d) is not inconsistent with this Section 2F. Tenant hereby acknowledges that

 

3

 

Landlord has not made any representations or warranties to Tenant with respect to the Expansion Premises Emergency Back-up Generator or the Expansion Premises Generator Location and that Tenant is taking the Expansion Premises Emergency Back-up Generator or the Expansion Premises Generator Location “as-is”. Tenant shall have no obligation to remove the Expansion Premises Emergency Back-up Generator from the Expansion Premises Generator Location.

 

G.                                    Utilities. The consumption of electricity, water, gas and other utilities in the Expansion Premises shall be measured by separate meters and check-meters (as applicable) currently existing in the Expansion Premises. Tenant shall pay for utilities with respect to the Expansion Premises in accordance with the terms of Section 9 of the Lease.

 

H.                                   Future Development and Condominium.

 

(a)                                 Parking Deck, Pavilion and REAs. Reference is made to the fact that Landlord has and is exercising its right, as contemplated pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Lease, to construct the Future Development and to subject the Property to a condominium. In implementation of the Future Development: (i) Landlord is presently constructing a common pavilion (“Pavilion”) on land which is subject to an REA dated March 24, 2014 and filed with the Middlesex Registry District of the Land Court (“the “Land Court”) as [CONFIRM: Document No. 1668032, and (ii) the REA dated November 13, 2015 and filed with the Land Court as Document No. 1715486 affects both the land on which the Pavilion is being constructed, as noted in clause (i) above, as well as land on which Landlord has constructed a parking deck (the “Parking Deck”) (the second level portion of such parking deck on which Tenant has a right to park and the associated ramps to the same being referred to herein as the “Parking Deck”). Said REAs are referred to herein as the “REAs”. The locations of the Parking Deck and the Pavilion are shown on Exhibit C, First Amendment. The Pavilion will be used in common by the occupants of the Building, 4 Hartwell Avenue, 101 Hartwell Avenue, and 115 Hartwell Avenue (“115 Building”) and the Parking Deck will be used in common by occupants of the Building and the 115 Building. The Building, 4 Hartwell Avenue, 101 Hartwell Avenue, and the 115 Building are referred to collectively as the “Campus Buildings”. The Parking Deck shall be used for parking motor vehicles and the Pavilion, when completed and operational, shall be available for use, by those entitled thereto, as a cafeteria, meetings and other similar uses. Therefore:

 

(1)                                 Tenant hereby consents to the REAs, except that: (i) in the event of any conflict between the provisions of the REAs and the provisions of this Lease, the provisions of this Lease shall control, (ii) Tenant shall have no obligation or liability under the REAs separate and apart from its obligations under this Lease, and (iii) Landlord shall not be relieved of any obligation to Tenant under this Lease on account of the provisions of the REAs.

(2)                                 The Parking Deck and the Pavilion shall be considered Common Areas under the Lease (including, without limitation, Section 1.3(c) thereof).

(3)                                 Subject to the provisions and limitations of Section 5.2 of the Lease, commencing as of the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date and continuing thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term of the Lease, Operating Costs incurred by Landlord with respect to the Parking

 

4

 

Deck and the Pavilion shall be included in Operating Costs (after deducting any revenues received by Landlord from the operation of the same). Operating Costs with respect to the Parking Deck shall be allocated to the Building on the basis of the ratio of the rentable floor of the Building to the aggregate floor area of the Building and the 115 Building. In no event shall any Operating Costs include Condominium expenses, REA expenses, or common charges that would otherwise have been excluded from Operating Expenses had they been incurred by Landlord with respect to the Property.

(4)                                 Subject to the provisions and limitations of Section 5.3 of the Lease, commencing as of the Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date and continuing thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term of the Lease, Taxes incurred by Landlord with respect to the improvements constituting the Parking Deck and the Pavilion (but not the land underneath the same) shall be included in Taxes (after deducting any revenues received by Landlord from the operation of the same, to the extent not previously applied to reduce Operating Costs). The Parking Deck is located on the same tax parcel as 4 Hartwell Avenue, and the Pavilion is located on the same tax parcel as 101 Hartwell Avenue. The amount of Taxes allocable to the Parking Deck and the Pavilion (collectively, “Amenity Taxes”) shall be determined by a reasonable method determined by Landlord and approved by Tenant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(5)                                 See Section 2I as Tenant’s parking rights.

 

(b)                                 Condominium. In addition, as contemplated by Section 2.2 of the Lease, Landlord has, by Master Deed (“Master Deed”) dated as of June 15, 2017 as recorded in the Middlesex County South District Registry of Deeds (the “Registry”) at Book 69458, Page 399, and Declaration of Trust (“Declaration of Trust”) dated as of June 15, 2017 and recorded in the Registry at Book 69458, Page 430, subjected the Property to the 113/115 Hartwell Avenue Condominium (“Condominium”). The Master Deed and the Declaration of Trust, as the same may be amended in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2H(b), are referred to collectively herein as the “Condominium Documents”. Therefore:

 

(1)                                 Consent to Condominium and Subordination. Tenant hereby confirms and agrees that, upon the full execution and delivery, and the terms, of the Condominium Subordination and Recognition Agreement (“Subordination”) attached hereto as Exhibit D, First Amendment, it has consented to the Master Deed and the Declaration of Trust and that the Lease is subordinate to the Condominium Documents, except that: (i) in the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Condominium Documents and the provisions of this Lease, the provisions of this Lease shall control, (ii) Tenant shall have no obligation or liability under the Condominium Documents separate and apart from its obligations under this Lease, and (iii) Landlord shall not be relieved of any obligation to Tenant under this Lease on account of the provisions of the Condominium Documents. Each party shall execute and deliver the Subordination at the

 

5

 

time that it executes and delivers this First Amendment, and Landlord shall, at the time that it executes and delivers this First Amendment, cause (i) each of the Trustees of the Condominium to execute and deliver the Subordination.

 

(2)                                 Landlord Representations. Landlord hereby represents to Tenant that:

 

i)                                         Landlord has delivered true, correct, and complete copies of the Condominium Documents and the REAs to Tenant

 

ii)                                      If Landlord grants its written consent to Tenant to any request for Landlord’s consent under the Lease, Landlord shall be deemed, by granting such consent to Tenant, to have represented to Tenant that Landlord has obtained the consent of the Trustees to such action, if such the consent of the Trustees is required under the Condominium Documents (it being acknowledged and agreed that in no event shall Landlord have the right to withhold its consent on account of the failure of the Trustees to consent to any such action).

 

(3)                                 Operating Costs. If Tenant exercises its audit rights under Section 5.2(g), and then, with respect to any costs incurred by the Trustees of the Condominium or which are passed through to Landlord under the REAs and which are billed by Landlord to Tenant as part of Operating Costs under the Lease, Landlord shall obtain, for Tenant’s review, documentation similar to the documentation to evidence such costs which Tenant would have had the right to review if Landlord had incurred such costs itself.

 

(4)                                 Condominium Rules and Regulations. Any rule or regulation issued under the Condominium Documents shall, for the purposes of Section 18.1 of the Lease be deemed to be a Rule or Regulation promulgated by Landlord and shall be subject to the same limitations and conditions as are applicable to other Rules and Regulations promulgated by Landlord, as set forth in said Section 18.1.

 

(c)                                  Amendments to Condominium Documents and REAs. Landlord shall have the right to amend the Condominium Documents and each of the REAs subject to the following provisions. Landlord shall submit to Tenant for Tenant’s approval drafts of any such amendments prior to their execution. Tenant shall have the right to notify Landlord within twenty (20) days after receipt of the draft amendments of Tenant’s disapproval thereof, but only to the extent such draft(s) (i) adversely affect Tenant’s use of, or access to, the Premises, the Building systems or the Rooftop Premises (or Additional Rooftop Premises) in more than a de minimis manner, (ii) adversely affect in more than a de minimis manner the operation of Tenant’s business from the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease, or Tenant’s rights under and pursuant to the terms of this Lease, including without limitation Tenant’s rights with respect to the Common Areas, and/or (iii) result in any increase in Tenant’s payment or other obligations under this Lease in more than a de minimis manner. Landlord shall, upon

 

6

 

Tenant’s request, provide Tenant with true, correct and complete photocopies of any such amendments. Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for its reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees incurred by Tenant in reviewing and negotiating any amendments to the Condominium Documents and REAs. Landlord shall comply with the terms of the Condominium Documents and the REAs in all material respects.

 

(d)                                 Section 2.2 of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and is of no further force or effect.

 

I.                                        Tenant’s Parking Rights. Commencing as of Expansion Premises Term Commencement Date and continuing thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term of the Lease, Landlord shall make available, subject to the terms of the Lease, up to an aggregate of two hundred fifty-seven (257) Parking Spaces in the parking areas serving the Building. Included in said 257 Parking Spaces are fifty-six (56) Parking Spaces which are reserved for Tenant’s exclusive use (“Reserved Parking Spaces”). The parking areas (“Parking Areas”) serving the Building, as well as said Reserved Parking Spaces are shown on Exhibit C, First Amendment, and include both the Parking Deck and surface parking spaces. Landlord agrees that signage shall be maintained in the Parking Areas identifying that the Reserved Parking Spaces are reserved for Tenant’s exclusive use. If, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment following consultation with Tenant and in light of evidence provided by Tenant of such unpermitted use, or otherwise, Landlord determines that there are users of the Parking Spaces who do not have the lawful right to use the Parking Spaces in the manner being used, Landlord shall implement commercially reasonable measures (e.g., a sticker system for the tenants and occupants of the Building, the 115 Building and 4 Hartwell) to prevent such users from using the Parking Spaces, provided however, that Landlord shall have no obligation to incur capital expenditures in making such commercially reasonable efforts. Tenant’s use of the common Parking Spaces and the Reserved Parking Spaces shall be upon the terms set forth in Section 1.3(b) of the Lease, except that clause (ii) of the penultimate sentence of Section 1.3(b) and the last sentence of Section 1.3(b) are hereby deleted in their entirety and of no further force or effect.

 

J.                                        Mezzanine Level. The parties acknowledge that Tenant has completed construction of the construction of the mezzanine level, as contemplated by Section 3.3(f) of the Lease. Section 3.3(f) of the Lease shall have no: (i) right to construct a mezzanine level in the Expansion Premises and, (ii) applicability to the Expansion Premises.

 

K.                                    Additional Exterior Signage. The “Additional Exterior Signage” shall mean one (1) sign on the exterior of the Building at the entrance of the Expansion Premises in the location where the existing exterior tenant identification sign of Quanterix is located. Tenant shall have the right during the Term of the Lease with respect to the Expansion Premises, to install and maintain the Additional Exterior Signage on the terms and conditions which are applicable to the Exterior Signage, as set forth in Section 12.2 of the Lease, and the other provisions of the Lease, to the extent applicable.

(b)                                 Quanterix has agreed to deliver its Surrender Plan (“Quanterix Surrender Plan”) to Landlord on or before May 1, 2019 and its Industrial Hygenist Report to Landlord on or before June 1, 2019. The Industrial Hygenist Report shall either be addressed to both Landlord and Tenant or Landlord shall cause Quanterix to comply with the requirement of Section 21.1(b) of the Quanterix Lease that “Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to deliver the Surrender Plan and any report by Landlord’s environmental consultant with respect to the surrender of the Premises to third parties”.

C.                                    Landlord Approval of Quanterix Surrender Plan. Reference is made to the fact that, in accordance with the provisions of Section 21.1(b) of the Quanterix Lease, the Quanterix Surrender Plan must be approved by Landlord, and Landlord’s approval must not be unreasonably withheld.

W I T N E S S E T H :

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Master Deed dated June 15, 2017, and recorded in the Middlesex County South Registry of Deeds (the “Registry”) in Book 69458, Page 399 (“Master Deed”) and that certain Declaration of Trust dated June 15, 2017, and recorded in the Registry in Book 69458, Page 430 (“Trust”) and the rules and regulations attached thereto (the Master Deed and Trust, as the same may have been or may hereafter be amended or restated, are referred to herein collectively as the “Condominium Documents”), a condominium was established for the property described on Exhibit “A” to the Master Deed under the provisions of Chapter 183A, Section 21 of the Massachusetts General Laws (the “Condominium”); and

 

WHEREAS, by that certain Lease dated July 24, 2013, between Landlord, as landlord, and Tenant, as tenant, as it may be amended, from time to time, (the “Lease”), Tenant has hired from Landlord, and Landlord has leased to Tenant, certain premises in the Condominium, which premises are more particularly described in the Lease (the “Premises”); and

 

WHEREAS, Landlord and the Trustees have requested that the Tenant subordinate the Lease in priority to the Condominium Documents; and

 

WHEREAS, Tenant has asked the Trustees to recognize the Lease and the Trustees have agreed to provide for such recognition, subject to the terms of this Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS, all capitalized terms herein which are not separately defined herein will have the meanings given to those terms in the Master Deed.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1.                        Tenant hereby confirms to the Trustees, and the Trustees on behalf of the Trust and on behalf of the Trust’s successors and assigns, agrees that, the Lease and the term and estate thereby granted are and shall always be subordinate in all respects to the Condominium Documents, except that: (i) in the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Condominium Documents and the provisions of this Lease, the provisions of this Lease shall control, (ii) Tenant shall have no obligation or liability under the Condominium Documents separate and apart from its obligations under the Lease and no obligation or liability to the Trustees or Unit Owners (other than obligations and liabilities owed to the Unit Owner that is the Landlord under the Lease, in its capacity as landlord), and (iii) Landlord shall not be relieved of any obligation to Tenant under this Lease on account of the provisions of the Condominium Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Landlord and the Trustees hereby acknowledge and agree as follows:

 

1

 

(a) Notwithstanding the fact that the Outdoor Patio Location is defined as a General Common Element in the Master Deed, such Outdoor Patio Location (as defined in the Lease) shall be for the Tenant’s exclusive use, as set forth in the Lease.

 

(b) The Trustees shall not exercise, or permit the exercise, of any rights in the air space above the 113 Hartwell Unit (a General Common Element) in violation of the Lease, and nothing in the Condominium Documents shall be deemed to limit Tenant’s rights to the use of the air space above the 113 Hartwell Unit in accordance with the Lease.

 

(c) The rights of the Trustees to modify the General Common Elements and enter the Premises (as part of the 113 Hartwell Unit) shall be subject to the provisions of the Lease with respect to the same or the Tenant’s appurtenant rights under the Lease.

 

2.                        So long as (i) the Lease is in full force and effect, and (ii) Tenant is not in default under the Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period (as required under the Lease), then, in the event that the Trustees forecloses on any lien for common charges on the Property under the Condominium Documents, or otherwise, then the Trustees shall not cause or have the right to cause (a) the Lease to be terminated, (b) Tenant’s use, possession or enjoyment of the Premises to be terminated, altered, or disturbed, or (c) name Tenant as a defendant in any foreclosure action for the purpose of terminating the Lease (unless joinder is required by law or rule of the courts, in which case the Trustees shall not seek affirmative relief against Tenant), and, following a foreclosure or other succession to the rights of Landlord pursuant to the Condominium Documents shall recognize Tenant as a direct tenant of the Trustees (or their designee), on all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Lease, except to the extent inconsistent with the provisions of Paragraph 3 below. The provisions of this Paragraph 2 shall not in any way be deemed to diminish Landlord’s rights under the Lease.

 

3.                        In the event the Trustees (or their designee) shall succeed to Landlord’s interest under the Lease, whether through possession or foreclosure action or otherwise, Tenant and its successors and assigns shall automatically, without requiring further action, attorn to and recognize the Trustees (or their designee) as Tenant’s landlord under the Lease and the Trustees (or their designee) shall accept such attornment, upon the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of the Lease to the same extent and in the same manner as if the Lease were a direct lease between the Trustees (or their designee) and Tenant, except, if the Trustees (or their designee) succeed to Landlord’s interest under the Lease at a time when the owner of the 115 Hartwell Unit is not affiliated with Landlord, then the Trustees (or their designee) shall not be:

 

(i)                                     bound by any payment of rents, additional rents or other sums which Tenant may have made to any prior landlord (including, without limitation, the then defaulting Landlord) more than thirty (30) days in advance of the date upon which such payment was due, unless any such payment (i) is specifically required by the Lease, or (ii) was otherwise actually received by the Trustees;

 

(ii)                                  liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including the Landlord) provided, that, nothing in this clause (a) being deemed to relieve the Trustees of its continuing obligations as landlord under the Lease with respect to the period from and after the date of such succession;

 

2

 

(iii)                               subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including the Landlord) (other than offsets expressly provided for in the Lease);

 

(iv)                              liable for or incur any obligation with respect to the construction of the Property or any improvements therein (provided that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or delay Tenant from the exercise of its express remedies set forth in the Lease, regardless of when such remedies are triggered or whether the events giving rise to such remedies arose out of the act of Landlord prior to such succession);

 

(v)                                 obligated to repair, replace, rebuild or restore the premises covered by the Lease (or any portion thereof) in the event of a casualty or condemnation that occurred prior to the date of any such succession, except to the extent that the same can be accomplished from the net proceeds of insurance or condemnation awards actually received by or made available to the Trustees (or their designee); or

 

(vi)                              bound by or responsible for any security deposit or prepaid rent not actually received by the Trustees.

 

4.                                      This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties and may not be discharged or modified orally or by any course of conduct of the parties hereto other than by an agreement in writing specifically referring to this Agreement and signed by the party or parties to be charged thereby.

At least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Term (or, if applicable, within five (5) business days after any earlier termination of this Lease), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a narrative description of the actions proposed (or required by any Legal Requirements) to be taken by Tenant in order to render the Premises (including any Alterations permitted or required by Landlord to remain therein) free of Hazardous Materials used or otherwise brought onto the Premises by Tenant and, to the extent such Hazardous Materials include any radioactive materials or substances, otherwise released for unrestricted use and occupancy (the “Surrender Plan”). The Surrender Plan (i) shall be accompanied by a current list of (A) all Required Permits held by or on behalf of any Tenant Party with respect to Hazardous Materials in, on, under, at or about the Premises, and (B) Tenant’s Hazardous Materials, and (ii) shall be subject to the review and approval of Landlord’s environmental consultant. In connection with review and approval of the Surrender Plan, upon request of Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord or its consultant such additional non-proprietary information concerning the use of and operations within the Premises as Landlord shall reasonably request. On or before the expiration of the Term (or within thirty (30) days after any earlier termination of this Lease, during which period Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises shall be governed by Section 21.3 below), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a certification (“Industrial Hygienist Certification”) from an industrial hygienist reasonably acceptable to Landlord certifying that the approved Surrender Plan shall have been satisfactorily completed by a contractor acceptable to Landlord, and Landlord shall have the right, subject to reimbursement at Tenant’s expense as set forth below, to cause Landlord’s environmental consultant to inspect the Premises and perform such additional procedures as may be deemed reasonably necessary to confirm that the Premises are, as of the expiration of the Term (or, if applicable, the date which is thirty (30) days after any earlier termination of this Lease) in the condition required hereunder. Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to deliver the Surrender Plan and any report by Landlord’s environmental consultant with respect to the surrender of the Premises to third parties. Such third parties and the Landlord Parties shall be entitled to rely on the Surrender Report. If Tenant shall fail to prepare or submit a Surrender Plan approved by Landlord, or if Tenant shall fail to complete the approved Surrender Plan, or if such Surrender Plan, whether or not approved by Landlord, shall fail to adequately address the use of Hazardous Materials by any of the Tenant Parties in, on, at, under or about the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to take any such actions as Landlord may deem reasonable or appropriate to assure that the Premises and the Property are surrendered in the condition required hereunder, the cost of which actions shall be reimbursed by Tenant as Additional Rent upon demand.

This Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement (hereinafter, the “Agreement”) is made this 9th day of November, 2018, by and among KING 113 HARTWELL LLC (hereinafter, the “Landlord” or “Borrower”), with an address of c/o King Street Properties, 255 Bear Hill Road, Waltham, MA 02451, UNIQURE, INC. (hereinafter, the “Tenant”), with an address of 113 Hartwell Avenue, Lexington, Massachusetts 02421, Attn: David Cerveny, Esq. , and CITIZENS BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (hereinafter, the “Mortgagee”), with a principal place of business at Citizens Bank, National Association, 28 State Street, 12th Floor Boston, MA 02109, Attn: Sean Randall.

 

Introductory Provisions

 

A.                                    Mortgagee is relying on this Agreement as an inducement to Mortgagee in making and maintaining a loan (hereinafter, the “Loan”) secured by, among other things, a certain Amended and Restated Mortgage, Financing Statement, and Security Agreement dated as of June 2017, and recorded with the Middlesex South District Registry of Deeds at Book 69458, Page 477 (hereinafter, the “Mortgage”) given by Borrower covering property commonly known as and numbered 113 Hartwell Avenue, Lexington, Middlesex County, Massachusetts (hereinafter, the “Property”).

 

B.                                    Tenant is the holder of and tenant under that certain lease (hereinafter, as amended, the “Lease”) dated July 24, 2013, and amended by a First Amendment (the “Amendment”) dated as of November 9, 2018 made with Landlord, covering certain premises (hereinafter, the “Demised Premises”) at the Property, notice of which Lease is being contemporaneously recorded herewith.

 

C.                                    Mortgagee requires, as a condition to the maintaining of the Loan and the execution of the Amendment, that the Mortgage be and remain superior to the Lease.

 

D.                                    Tenant requires, as a condition to the Lease being subordinate to the Mortgage, that its rights under the Lease be recognized.

 

E.                                     Mortgagee, Landlord, and Tenant desire to confirm their understanding with respect to the Mortgage and the Lease.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and with the understanding by Tenant that Mortgagee will rely hereon in making and maintaining the Loan, Mortgagee, Landlord, and Tenant agree as follows:

 

1

 

1.                                      The Lease is subordinate and inferior to the lien of the Mortgage and any renewal, substitution, extension or replacement thereof and each advance made thereunder as though said Mortgage, and each such renewal, substitution, extension or replacement were executed, recorded and the advance made before the execution of the Lease.

 

2.                                      So long as Tenant is not in default (beyond any period expressed in the Lease within which Tenant may cure any such default) in the payment of rent or in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed or observed, (i) Tenant’s occupancy of the Demised Premises shall not be disturbed by Mortgagee, nor will Tenant’s rights under the Lease be impaired (except as expressly provided in this Agreement), in the exercise of any of its rights under the Mortgage during the term of the Lease or any extension or renewal thereof, made in accordance with the terms of the Lease, and (ii) Mortgagee will not join Tenant as a party defendant in any action or proceeding for the purpose of terminating Tenant’s interest and estate under the Lease because of any default under the Mortgage.

 

3.                                      In the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of the Mortgage, or if the Property or the Demised Premises are sold pursuant to the power of sale under the Mortgage, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure sale and shall recognize such purchaser thereafter as the Landlord under the Lease. Such attornment shall be effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instrument on the part of any of the parties hereto. Tenant agrees, however, to execute and deliver at any time and from time to time, upon the request of any holder(s) of any of the indebtedness or other obligations secured by the Mortgage, or upon request of any such purchaser, (a) any reasonable instrument or certificate which, in the reasonable judgment of such holder(s), or such purchaser, may be necessary or appropriate in any such foreclosure proceeding or otherwise to evidence such attornment on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and (b) an estoppel certificate regarding the status of the Lease, consisting of statements, if true (and if not true, specifying in what respect), (i) that the Lease is in full force and effect, (ii) the date through which rentals have been paid, (iii) the duration and date of the commencement of the term of the Lease, (iv) the nature of any amendments or modifications to the Lease, (v) that to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, no default, or state of facts, which with the passage of time, or notice, or both, would constitute a default, exists on the part of either party to the Lease, and (vi) the dates on which payments of additional rent, if any, are due under the Lease.

 

4.                                      If Mortgagee shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under the Lease in any manner, or if any purchaser acquires the Property, or the Demised Premises, upon any foreclosure of the Mortgage, Mortgagee or such purchaser, as the case may be, shall have the same remedies by entry, action or otherwise in the event of any default by Tenant (beyond any period expressed in the Lease within which Tenant may cure such default) in the payment of rent or in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed or observed that the Landlord had or would have had if Mortgagee or such purchaser had not succeeded to the interest of the present Landlord. From and after any such attornment, Mortgagee or such purchaser shall be bound to Tenant under all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease, and Tenant shall, from and after such attornment to Mortgagee, or such purchaser, have the same remedies against Mortgagee, or such purchaser, for the breach of an agreement contained in the Lease that Tenant might have had

 

2

 

under the Lease against Landlord if Mortgagee or such purchaser had not succeeded to the interest of Landlord; provided, however, that Mortgagee or such purchaser shall only be bound during the period of its ownership, all Tenant claims shall be satisfied only out of the interest, if any, of Mortgagee or such purchaser in the Property, and Mortgagee and such purchaser shall not be (a) liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including the Landlord) provided, that, nothing in this clause (a) being deemed to relieve Mortgagee or any such purchaser of its continuing obligations as landlord under the Lease with respect to the period from and after the date of such succession; or (b) liable for or incur any obligation with respect to the construction of the Property or any improvements therein (provided that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or delay Tenant from the exercise of its express remedies set forth in Section 5 of the Amendment (as it may incorporate Section 3.4 of the Lease) with respect to the Landlord’s Additional Premises Contribution), regardless of when such remedies are triggered or whether the events giving rise to such remedies arose out of the act of Landlord prior to such succession); or (c) subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including the Landlord) (other than offsets expressly provided for in the Lease); or (d) bound by any rent or additional rent which Tenant might have paid for more than one month in advance of the date due to any prior landlord (including the Landlord); or (e) bound by any amendment or modification of any term of the Lease (other than amendments exercising the rights of Tenant that are expressly contemplated by the Lease, such as for extension or expansion) made without Mortgagee’s prior written consent, such consent not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; or (0 bound by or responsible for any security deposit or prepaid rent not actually received by Mortgagee (Mortgagee acknowledging that, upon actual receipt thereof, it shall hold any cash Security Deposit under the Lease on the terms and conditions set forth in the Lease); or (g) liable for or incur any obligation with respect to any breach of warranties of any nature under the Lease or otherwise including without limitation any warranties respecting use, compliance with zoning, landlord’s title, landlord’s authority, habitability and/or fitness for any purpose, or possession; or (h) liable for consequential damages. Mortgagee acknowledges that it has approved the Amendment.

 

5.                                      Nothing herein contained is intended, nor shall it be construed, to abridge or adversely affect any right or remedy of the Landlord under the Lease, or any subsequent Landlord, in the event of any default by Tenant (beyond any period expressed in the Lease within which Tenant may cure such default) in the payment of rent or in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed or observed.

 

6.                                      Tenant agrees to provide Mortgagee with a copy of each notice of default given to Landlord under the Lease, at the same time as such notice of default is given to the Landlord, and that in the event of any default by the Landlord under the Lease, Tenant will take no action to terminate the Lease unless the default remains uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof shall have been mailed, postage prepaid, to Landlord at Landlord’s address, and to Mortgagee at its address stated in (or pursuant to) Section 7 below; provided, however, that if any such default is such that it reasonably cannot be cured within said thirty-day period, such period shall be extended for such additional period of time as shall be reasonably necessary for Mortgagee to obtain possession of the Property and to foreclose the Mortgage (but in any event not to exceed 180 days in the aggregate), if Mortgagee gives Tenant written notice of Mortgagee’s election to undertake the cure of the default within such 30 day period and if

 

3

 

curative action (including, without limitation, action to obtain possession and foreclose) is instituted within such 30 day period and is thereafter diligently pursued. Mortgagee shall have no obligation to cure any default under the Lease prior to the time that it succeeds to the interest of Landlord under the Lease. Nothing in this Section 6 shall be deemed to prohibit or delay Tenant from exercising its express termination rights under the Lease pursuant to Sections 9.5 [interruption] and Article 15 [casualty/condemnation] thereunder on the terms and conditions contained therein.

 

7.                                      Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be given or delivered by United States mail, registered or certified, postage fully prepaid, return receipt requested, or by recognized courier service addressed to the party to whom it is being given at its address set forth above, or such other address as such party may have specified theretofore by notice delivered in accordance with this sentence. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given and received on the date delivered or tendered for delivery during normal business hours as herein provided. A copy of any notice to Tenant shall also be sent to DLA Piper LLP (US), 33 Arch Street, Boston, MA 02110, Attn: Geoff Howell, Esq. and a copy of any notice to Mortgagee shall also be sent to Citizens Bank, National Association, 28 State Street, 12th Floor, Boston, MA 02109, Attn: Sean Randall.

 

8.                                      This Agreement may not be modified orally or in any manner than by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest.

1.8.                            Casualty.

 

(a)                                 In the event of any damage or destruction, with a repair or replacement cost of more than $1,000,000 in the aggregate, to the Mortgaged Property or the other Collateral by reason of fire or other hazard or casualty (collectively, a “Casualty”), the Mortgagor shall give immediate written notice thereof to the Mortgagee and proceed with reasonable diligence, in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations (“Legal Requirements”), to repair, restore, rebuild or replace the affected property (collectively, the “Repair Work”); provided, however, that if a Casualty affects any improvements that any tenant is required to repair, restore, rebuild or replace following a Casualty under the terms of any Lease, then the Mortgagor shall not be required to repair, restore, rebuild or replace such improvements. If pursuant to paragraph (c) below, the Mortgagee applies insurance proceeds to the Obligations and does not release the same to the Mortgagor, the obligation of the Mortgagor to complete the Repair Work shall be limited to taking all actions reasonably required to make the Mortgaged Property safe and in compliance with all Legal Requirements and to restore the undamaged portion of the Mortgaged Property to an economically functional unit to the extent that it is reasonably possible to do so.

 

(b)                                 All property insurance claims shall be adjusted by the Mortgagor at the Mortgagor’s sole cost and expense, except that the adjustment of all property insurance claims of more than $1,000,000 shall be subject to the Mortgagee’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that if any Event of Default exists, the Mortgagee shall have the right to adjust and compromise such claims without the approval of the Mortgagor.

 

(c)                                  (1) In the event of any Casualty for which the estimated cost of repair, restoration, rebuilding or replacement (collectively, the “Repair Costs”) does not exceed $1,000,000, all proceeds of insurance shall be paid to the Mortgagor, and such insurance proceeds shall be used by the Mortgagor for the Repair Work and (2) in the event of any Casualty for which the estimated Repair Costs exceed $1,000,000, all proceeds of insurance shall be paid to the Mortgagee and, the Mortgagee shall release so much of the insurance proceeds as may be required to pay for the Repair Costs in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) below (and any excess shall be released to Borrower upon completion of the Repair Work). The provisions of this subsection (c) shall not apply with respect to (x) proceeds of insurance maintained by any tenant under any Lease, and such proceeds shall be paid and applied in accordance with the terms of such Lease, provided, that if any such Lease requires that proceeds of insurance be paid to the Mortgagor, then the provisions of this subsection (c) shall apply with respect to proceeds of insurance so paid to the Mortgagor; or (y), provided that the Mortgagee does not then hold a mortgage on both the 113 Hartwell Unit and the 115 Hartwell Unit of the Condominium, proceeds of insurance maintained by the Condominium Association or Condominium Trustees, and such proceeds shall be paid and applied in accordance with the terms of the Condominium Documents.

 

(d)                                 In the event that insurance proceeds are paid to the Mortgagee in accordance with Section 1.8(c)(2), then the Mortgagee shall release so much of the insurance proceeds as may be required to pay for the Repair Costs upon the satisfaction of the following conditions:

 

10

 

(i)                                     prior written approval by the Mortgagee, and the Mortgagee’s Consultant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of plans, specifications, cost estimates, contracts and bonds for the restoration or repair of the loss or damage;

 

(ii)                                  waivers of lien, architect’s certificates, contractor’s sworn statements and other evidence of costs, payments and lien -free completion as the Mortgagee may in good faith require;

 

(iii)                               funds shall be released upon final completion of the Repair Work, unless the Mortgagor requests earlier funding, in which event partial monthly disbursements equal to 95% of the value of the work completed (or, if the applicable contract is on a cost plus basis, then 95% of the costs of the work completed if such cost is less than the value thereof) shall be made prior to final completion of the repair, restoration or replacement and the balance of the disbursements shall be made upon full completion and the receipt by the Mortgagee of satisfactory evidence of payment and release of all liens relating to the restoration work;

 

(iv) determination in good faith by the Mortgagee that the undisbursed balance of such proceeds on deposit with the Mortgagee, together with additional funds deposited by the Mortgagor for the purpose, shall be sufficient to pay for the remaining Repair Costs, free and clear of all liens and claims for lien;

 

(v)                                 all work shall comply with Legal Requirements and shall be of a quality that is consistent with (or better than) the original construction of the Mortgaged Property or the construction of improvements to the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the Loan Agreement, as the case may be as reasonably determined by the Mortgagee’s Consultant;

 

(vi)                              sufficient Tenants having a termination right as a result of such Casualty shall have waived in writing any right to terminate their respective Leases as a result of such Casualty such that the Pro Forma Debt Service Coverage ratio following the restoration is not less than 1.25:1.00;

 

(vii)                           the Mortgaged Property is free and clear of all encumbrances except Permitted Title Exceptions; and

 

(viii)                        the absence of any Default or Event of Default.

 

The Mortgagee shall apply to the Obligations any such insurance proceeds not paid to the Mortgagor due to the Mortgagor’s failure to satisfy all of the foregoing conditions. The provisions of this subsection (d) shall not apply with respect to (x) proceeds of insurance maintained by any tenant under any Lease, and such proceeds shall be paid and applied in accordance with the terms of such Lease; provided, that if any such Lease requires that proceeds of insurance be paid to the Mortgagor, then the provisions of this subsection (d) shall apply with respect to proceeds of insurance to be paid to the Mortgagor; or (y), provided that the Mortgagee does not then hold a mortgage on both the 113 Hartwell Unit and the 115 Hartwell Unit of the Condominium, proceeds of insurance maintained by the Condominium Association or Condominium Trustees, and such proceeds shall be paid and applied in accordance with the terms of the Condominium Documents.

SCHEDULE B

Except as otherwise provided in any Lease or, provided that the Mortgagee does not then hold a mortgage on both the 113 Hartwell Unit and the 115 Hartwell Unit of the Condominium, the Condominium Documents, if there is any taking for public use of the Mortgaged Property or of any tangible Collateral, the awards on account thereof shall be paid to the Mortgagee and shall be applied to the Obligations, or at the Mortgagee’s discretion released to the Mortgagor. If, in the case of a partial taking or a temporary taking, in the good faith judgment of the Mortgagee the effect of such taking is such that there has not been a material and adverse impairment of the viability of the Mortgaged Property or the value of the Collateral, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Mortgagee shall release awards on account of such taking to the Mortgagor if such awards are sufficient (or amounts sufficient are otherwise made available) to repair or restore the Mortgaged Property to a condition reasonably satisfactory to the Mortgagee and such partial or temporary taking shall not be deemed to violate the provisions of Section 1.13.

COMMUTING OPTIONS & METHODS

 

In 2017, onsite employees at The Hartwell Innovation Campus were surveyed to determine their commuting methods and preferences.

 

The origin for employees commuting to The Hartwell Innovation Campus is Lexington, Cambridge, Arlington, Boston and surrounding communities, as well as the North Shore, South Shore, Metro West, and Southern New Hampshire. Based on survey results, a relatively equal number of employees at the building are commuting short distances (<20 miles) and medium distances (20-40 Miles), while only 8% are commuting long distances (>40 miles).

COMMUTING METHODS

 

 

As noted in the above chart, the majority of employees are commuting to work in SOV’s daily, while a small percentage are using alternative methods like carpooling, REV Shuttle, public transportation and bicycling. While SOV’s are still the primary mode of transportation at 91%, we are working toward a 10% decrease in SOV users from 2017 - 2018 as the growing population of

employees use alternative transportation such as bicycles and the REV Shuttle. Additionally, we continue to encourage the public transportation options available to our tenants.

 

MITIGATION PROGRAMS

 

The Hartwell Innovation Campus has developed and implemented an ongoing comprehensive Parking and Transportation Demand Management Plan designed to minimize the number of single occupancy vehicles (SOV) entering the site and encourage the use of alternate methods of transportation in an effort to reduce traffic volume on Hartwell Avenue.

 

We have implemented the following programs to encourage modes of alternative transportation such as bicycle/pedestrian trips, public transportation, ridesharing and shuttle services:

 

Membership to the 128 Business Council

 

The Hartwell Innovation Campus renewed the membership with the 128 Business Council in Spring of 2017. This partnership has provided our tenants with valuable resources provided by the 128 Business Council. Coupled with our on-site programs, we anticipate this mode of transportation will further reduce the percentage of employees commuting in SOV’s during the upcoming year.

 

Benefits Available to Employees Include:

 

·                                     Carpool matching Database

·                                     NuRide

·                                     Alewife/Hartwell Shuttle- THE REV

·                                     Guaranteed Ride Home

·                                     Individual transportation and route planning assistance

·                                     Bicycle route maps and route planning assistance

·                                     On-site commuter benefit events

·                                     On-line trip planning tools

 

The 128 Business Council is available to all Tenant employees, via on site events hosted by The Hartwell Innovation Campus or scheduled meetings for individual tenants, to promote the above programs.

 

Bike Share Program

 

To encourage bike trips, centrally located bike racks have been provided with the capacity for 62 bicycles. The quantity of bikes stored on the racks is monitored closely on a daily basis to ensure adequate space is available.

The Bikeshare program is designed to promote bike trips by providing tenants with a free and convenient opportunity to sign out a bicycle to pick-up lunch, do other local errands, or just enjoy a ride on the Minuteman Bikeway. To encourage use of the building’s shared bicycles, each building is equipped with an onsite shower. Each tenant also has the opportunity to request complimentary shower supplies through the Transportation Coordinator.

 

Public Transportation

 

The Hartwell Avenue area is currently serviced by 2 MBTA bus routes (#62, Bedford V.A. Hospital — Alewife Station & #76 Hanscom/Lincoln Lab — Alewife Station). Both bus routes are within walking or biking distance of The Hartwell Innovation Campus.

 

Information regarding public transportation options has been communicated to employees at The Hartwell Innovation Campus via email blasts and tenant meetings.

 

The Hartwell Innovation Campus recognizes the need for more public transportation options to and from Hartwell Avenue, and has been working closely with the Town and the Hartwell Association to establishing new amenities. The Hartwell Association holds meetings regularly throughout the year and gives the property owners on Hartwell Avenue an opportunity to gather and discuss common goals/purposes.

 

Shuttle Services

 

The Hartwell Innovation Campus co-hosted the first meeting of the Hartwell Association at 113 Hartwell Avenue, which marked the first time that property owners on Hartwell Avenue gathered with a common goal/purpose. Over the course of the last six years, a representative of the Hartwell Innovation Campus has attended numerous Hartwell Association meetings discussing the various commuting services available in hopes to collectively subsidize a commuter shuttle for workers commuting from Boston.

 

In spring of 2013, the Town of Lexington and the 128 Business Council applied for and were awarded a federal transportation grant to pilot a commuter shuttle that will provide direct service to Hartwell Avenue from the Alewife Red Line Station. The grant will cover 80% of the shuttle’s operation costs for the first year of operation, while 5 property owners and members of the Hartwell Association, agreed to subsidize 20% of the cost. This continues today, even though the grant is not available this year to the ownerships along Hartwell Avenue. The Hartwell Innovation Campus remains committed to the commuter shuttle and continues to contribute toward the cost.

 

Each Tenant has full access to this amenity at a nominal cost to the employee. The REV shuttle is fully equipped with wi-fi and runs Monday- Friday with three trips in the morning and three trips in the evening. The shuttle is operated and managed through the 128 Business Council which has a proven track record of successfully implementing shuttle services and is a leader in transportation policy development.

 

Benefits of REV Shuttle Trips

 

·                  Less automobile traffic congestion

·                  Reduced fuel consumption

·                  Allows commuters to connect to the site through multiple modes of public transit including MBTA commuter rail from suburban locations

·                  More relaxing because riders can read or catch up on work during the commute

Rideshare Program

 

The Hartwell Innovation Campus has established a Rideshare Program for each building. The Transportation Coordinator will be responsible for creating an electronic board, where tenants can post information and communicate with other commuters to arrange for transportation. Initially this program will focus on ride matching with other employees in the building, but if necessary could expand to include other tenants in the area.

 

Benefits of Rideshare Program

 

·                                          Less automobile traffic congestion

·                                          Reduced fuel consumption

·                                          Better air quality

·                                          Less expensive than SOV because of shared transportation costs

·                                          Less travel time if carpool/HOV lanes can be utilized

·                                          More relaxing because of shared driving responsibilities

 

Onsite Amenities

 

The Hartwell Innovation Campus will provide onsite amenities that will reduce the need for tenants to travel off site during the workday. These amenities include the construction of a Pavilion, central to 101, 113/115 Hartwell Avenue and 4 Hartwell Place, which will provide coffee and other refreshments. It will also serve as a gathering place for tenants to get out of their office environment and collaborate with others in the campus. Management will also continue to promote the Food Truck Program that provides a variety of lunch options to the campus. Onsite amenities will encourage the use of the REV Shuttle, the Rideshare Program, and other alternative means of transportation since tenants will not be dependent on SOV to access these conveniences.

 

We believe these services are crucial in attracting a younger workforce, most of whom are straight out of college, who would otherwise work in the Boston or Cambridge area without these essential amenities, in addition to decreasing single occupancy rides and transportation costs.

 

Communication

 

In a continuing effort to support alternative transportation, The Hartwell Innovation Campus is using several means to reach tenants and communicate information regarding alternative transportation programs.

 

Memorandums & Email Blasts

 

The Transportation Coordinator communicates with employees at each building through frequent emails and building memorandums announcing programs, incentives, reminders, and other useful information intended to decrease the use of SOV by those onsite.

Events

 

To incentivize employee participation in all programs, transportation management events are held throughout the year. The 128 Business Council was present to promote its programs and sign up employees on site. Complementary gift bags, including an MBTA map, a map of Eastern Massachusetts, and a Boston Bike map were provided to tenants.

 

Ongoing Management

 

The Hartwell Innovation Campus has continued to gain and improve its understanding of the building’s occupants and how to help change behaviors and attitudes toward commuting. Our message is clear; utilizing alternative methods of transportation not only to reduces traffic congestion in the area, but also reduces transportation costs and contributes to both a healthy lifestyle and environment.

 

Critical to ensuring the success of our PDTM Plan is the ongoing management of the programs. Management activities will include, but not be limited to the following:

 

*Appoint a Transportation Coordinator whose responsibilities will include the following: 

 

*Coordinate Rideshare Board/Postings.

 

*Create a King Street Properties Hartwell Facebook Page (or similar on- line web site), which tenants can use to regarding rideshares.

 

*Provide tenants with updated information and options on alternative modes of transportation.

 

*Promote transportation options through events such as bicycle tune-up day, car wash for carpoolers, gas bucks for groups.

 

*Help in the creation of a place of residence database which will connect employees in the building who live in similar locations.

 

*Monitor and evaluate results of the PTDM Plan through tenant surveys.

 

*Ensure that specific language is included in all tenant leases which requires the tenant’s participation in the Hartwell Avenue Transportation Management Association.

 

*Take a leadership role in working with other landlords in the area to encourage cooperation and promotion of transportation options.

 

*Become active members in area transportation groups.

Over the next year we will continue to work towards this goal in the following ways: 

 

Bikesharing

 

With a bike sharing program underway; we will continue to monitor the use of bikes to ensure the quantity of bikes meets tenant demand. To encourage growth of and participation in the program, over the next year, The Hartwell Innovation Campus will continue to:

 

*Perform maintenance to bicycles to ensure employees at the building feel safe signing them out to complete errands, go out to lunch, etc.

 

*                                         Provide tenants with additional information regarding the program, the benefits of participating, and area businesses/activities that are within biking distance of the building.

 

*                                         Continue to offer new incentives to keep employees at the building interested in participating.

 

*                                         Continue to provide shared umbrellas and parkas for use in the inclement weather. 

 

Ridesharing

 

While many commuters are hesitant of ridesharing for various reasons, the positive results (decreased commuting costs, decreased traffic congestion, improved environmental quality, etc.) make it an incredibly viable commuting alternative to SOV.

 

To help employees see the value in ridesharing and encourage them to participate, over the next year, The Hartwell Innovation Campus will continue to:

 

*                                         Gather and present to employees data which will help them facilitate convenient ridesharing schedules through its partnership with the 128 Business Council.

 

*                                         Host semi-annual tenant events with 128 Business Council to help promote benefits, answer questions, and spread the word of new programs.

 

*                                         Continue to offer incentives for employees at the building participating in ridesharing opportunities such as free gas cards for ride sharing.

 

Public Transportation

 

Tenant surveying has confirmed that a large number of employees are commuting daily from the Cambridge area. As a member of the 128 Business Council and the Hartwell

 

10

 

Association, The Hartwell Innovation Campus will continue to promote the shuttle from Alewife to Hartwell Avenue.

 

To increase the use of public transportation specifically, The Hartwell Innovation Campus will continue to:

 

* Provide MBTA maps to each building tenant for distribution to employees.

 

* Provide a free MBTA monthly pass for an employee with each building tenant who most regularly chooses public transportation as his/her commuting method.

 

*Provide a free Alewife/Hartwell Rev shuttle monthly pass for an employee who utilizes the service on a daily basis. This will be tracked by the Tenant Coordinator and the Landlord Representative from the company.

 

Parking Management/SOV Disincentives

 

The primary way in which SOV use will be discouraged for the entire site is through the reduction of parking spaces per s.f. of GFA. After the reconstruction of the parking lot, the parking ratio for all tenants was reduced to 3.0 spaces per 1000 s.f. GFA. 5% of the total parking spaces across the site will be dedicated for rideshare vehicles. Additionally, tenants who choose to commute in SOV’s will not be eligible for any incentive programs such as the “Gas Bucks for Groups” or “Car Wash for Carpoolers”.

 

The Hartwell Innovation Campus is committed to an increased awareness and participation in alternative methods of transportation and in the reduction of SOV at the Center. We look forward to the challenge of continuing to work with both tenants and neighbors to expand this knowledge and increase participation in programs that will benefit individuals, the site, and the growing Hartwell Avenue community.
