<PAGE>

and are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the "Second Additional

     In addition, Landlord and Tenant have agreed to (i) provide Tenant with a

     4.   Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge that the definition of

be deleted in their entirety and Tenant's only option to extend the term of the
Lease beyond the expiration of the Extended Term shall be as provided in Section
5 hereinbelow.

     5.   (A)  Provided that at the time of exercise of the applicable option to
extend and at the commencement date of the applicable extension option period
(i) there exists no Event of Default (defined in Section 7.1 of the Lease), (ii)
the Lease is still in full force and effect, and (iii)  Tenant has neither
assigned the Lease nor sublet any portion of the Premises (except for an
assignment or subletting permitted under Section 5.6.1 of the Lease, a
subletting of less than twenty percent (20%) in the aggregate of the then
Rentable Floor Area of the Premises or a subletting which shall by its terms
expire prior to the commencement of the applicable extension option period),
Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term of the Lease upon all the same
terms, conditions, covenants and agreements contained in the Lease (except for
the Annual Fixed Rent which shall be adjusted during the option periods as
hereinbelow set forth) for two (2)

                                       3
<PAGE>

periods of five (5) years each as hereinafter set forth.

          (B)  If Tenant desires to exercise the applicable option to extend the
Term, then Tenant shall give notice to Landlord, not earlier than twelve (12)
months nor later than nine (9)  months prior to the expiration of the Term as it
may have been previously extended of Tenant's request for Landlord's quotation
of the annual fair market rent for the Premises as of the commencement date of
the applicable extension period, such quotation to be based on the use of the
Premises as first class office space utilizing properties of a similar character
within the Boston West Suburban market (including premises within the Complex if
at the time such quotation is requested such premises shall be available for
rent) (hereinafter called the "Annual Market Rent").  Within thirty (30) days
after Landlord's receipt of Tenant's notice requesting such a quotation,
Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord's quotation of the Annual Market Rent.
Within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Tenant of Landlord's quotation of the
Annual Market Rent, Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term by written
notice to Landlord within said last mentioned 15-day period upon all of the same
terms, conditions, covenants and agreements contained in the Lease except that
the annual fixed rent for the applicable option period shall be equal to 95% of
the Annual Market Rent as quoted by Landlord for the applicable option period;
provided, however, in no event shall the annual fixed rent payable during the
applicable option period be less than the annual fixed rent for the last year of
the Term of the Lease as it may have been extended immediately prior to the
applicable extended term and except further that the only extension options
shall be those as set forth in this Section 5 which are unexercised.  Upon the
giving of such notice, the Lease and the Term of the Lease shall be extended,
for the applicable option period, without the necessity for the execution of any
additional documents (except that Landlord and Tenant agree to enter into an
instrument in writing setting forth the fixed rent); and in such event all
references to the Term or the term of the Lease shall be construed as referring
to the Term, as so extended, unless the context clearly otherwise requires.
Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, in no event shall
Tenant have the right to exercise more than one extension option at a time and,
further, Tenant shall not have the right to exercise its second extension option
unless it has duly exercised its first extension option and be extended for more
than ten (10) years after the expiration of the Extended Term.

          (C)  Tenant's rights to extend the Term contained in this Section 5
shall apply to all the space then leased by Tenant including without limitation
the Initial Premises, the First Additional Premises, the Second Additional
Premises, the Mandatory Expansion Premises (if leased) and any expansion space
leased by Tenant pursuant to Section 12 hereinbelow and not to any such space
independently or to less than all of such space collectively.

     6.   (A)  Prior to September 1, 2001 Annual Fixed Rent for the Initial
Premises shall continue to be paid as provided in the Lease.

(if exercised) shall be payable as provided in Section 5 of this Second
Amendment.

     7.   Notwithstanding that Tenant's payments for Annual Fixed Rent for the
Second Additional Premises commence after the date the Lease Term commences for
such space, Tenant shall comply with all other terms of the Lease with respect
to the Second Additional Premises as of the applicable commencement date for
such space as provided hereinabove.

     12.  As of the date hereof, the Mandatory Expansion Premises (as defined
hereinabove) is leased to Nason, Wall & Wall, P.C. and Legal Information
Systems, Inc. (collectively "Nason").  Such existing lease, any amendments
thereto and the terms thereof, including, but not limited to, the original terms
thereof, options to extend the terms thereof, expansion options and amendments
is hereinafter called the "Nason Lease".  Subject to the Nason Lease and the
rights of Nason thereunder, which rights are prior to the rights of Tenant under
this Section, and provided that as of the date on which the Mandatory Expansion
Premises first becomes available for leasing (the "Mandatory Expansion Premises
Commencement Date") (i) no "Event of Default" (as defined in Section 7.1 of the
Lease) exists under the Lease, (ii) the Lease is still in full force and effect,
(iii) Tenant has not assigned the Lease nor sublet any portion of the Premises
(other than an assignment of subletting pursuant to Section 5.6.1 of the Lease
or a subletting of less than twenty percent (20%) in the aggregate of the then
Rentable Floor Area of the Premises) and (iv) such Mandatory Expansion Premises
Commencement Date is prior to March 1, 2002, the Mandatory Expansion Premises
shall be delivered to Tenant and added to the Premises leased by Tenant pursuant
to the Lease as of the Mandatory Expansion Premises Commencement Date upon all
of the same terms and conditions set forth in the Lease except that Annual Fixed
Rent shall be payable by Tenant for the Mandatory Expansion Premises as of the
date which is sixty (60) days subsequent to the Mandatory Expansion Premises
Commencement Date (the "Mandatory Expansion Premises Rent Commencement Date") in
an amount equal to the product of (i) $29.00 and (ii) the Rentable Floor Area of
the Mandatory Expansion Premises and Tenant's payments for operating expenses,
real estate taxes and electricity for such Mandatory Expansion Premises shall
commence as of the Mandatory Expansion Premises Rent Commencement Date and shall
be upon the same terms as the Second Additional Premises as of the Mandatory
Expansion Premises Rent Commencement Date.  In the event that the Mandatory
Expansion Premises Commencement Date occurs prior to March 1, 2002, Landlord
shall provide Tenant with an allowance in the amount of $37,000.00 (the
"Mandatory Expansion Premises Allowance") which may be applied by Tenant upon
written notice to Landlord to (i) the cost of improvements (including
architectural, engineering and construction management fees and expenses which
have been reasonably approved by Landlord) in any portion of the Mandatory
Expansion Premises performed by Tenant in accordance with the terms of the Lease
after Tenant delivers to Landlord invoices indicating the actual cost of such
improvements reasonably satisfactory to Landlord or (ii) the cost of
improvements in any portion of the Premises performed by Landlord. Upon request
from Tenant, Landlord shall provide to Tenant a copy of invoices evidencing the
actual cost of improvements performed by Landlord.  Further, if the Mandatory
Expansion Premises Commencement Date has not occurred prior to March 1, 2002,
Tenant shall not be entitled to the Mandatory Expansion Premises Allowance,
Tenant shall have no right to lease the Mandatory Expansion Premises and
Landlord shall be free to enter into a lease or leases of the Mandatory
Expansion Premises or any portion thereof with another prospective tenant upon
terms and conditions as Landlord shall determine, which terms may include rights
or options to extend the term or to expand the size of the premises under such
lease.

     13.  As of the date hereof, Offer Premises A is leased to Astra Tech, Inc.
and Offer Premises B is leased to iKnowledge, Inc. (such Offer Space A and Offer
Space B being hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the "First Offer
Space"). Such existing leases,

                                       8
<PAGE>

any amendments thereto and the terms thereof, including, but not limited to, the
original terms thereof, options to extend the terms thereof, expansion options
and amendments are hereinafter called the "Existing Leases" and the tenants
under the Existing Leases are hereinafter called the "Existing Tenants". Subject
to the Existing Leases and the rights of the Existing Tenants thereunder, which
rights are prior to the rights of Tenant under this Section and provided that at
the time any portion of the First Offer Space becomes available for reletting
(i) there is no "Event of Default" (as defined in Section 7.1 of the Lease),
(ii) Tenant has not assigned the Lease or sublet any portion of the Premises
except for an assignment or subletting permitted pursuant to Section 5.6.1 of
the Lease or a subletting of less than twenty percent (20%) in the aggregate of
the then Rentable Floor Area of the Premises and (iii) the Lease is still in
full force and effect, Landlord agrees not to enter into a lease or leases to
relet such First Offer Space without first giving to Tenant an opportunity to
lease such space for the "Annual Market Rent" (as hereinafter defined) as
determined by Landlord. The "Annual Market Rent" shall be the annual fair market
rent for such space determined by Landlord as of the date when the same becomes
so available for reletting, based upon the use of such space as first class
office space utilizing properties of similar character within the Boston West
Suburban market. When any portion of the First Offer Space becomes so available
for reletting, Landlord shall notify Tenant of the availability of such space
and shall advise Tenant of the Annual Market Rent and other business terms upon
which Landlord is willing so to lease such space. If Tenant wishes to exercise
Tenant's right of offer, Tenant shall do so, if at all, by giving Landlord
notice of Tenant's desire to lease the entire amount of such space (Tenant
having no right to Lease less than the entire amount of such space) on such
terms within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Landlord's notice to Tenant of
the availability of such space and of such terms, if Tenant shall give such
notice, the same shall constitute an agreement to enter into an amendment to the
Lease setting forth the leasing of such space within thirty (30) days
thereafter, upon all of the same terms and conditions contained in the Lease,
except for the provisions of this Section, the Annual Fixed Rent which shall be
equal to the Annual Market Rent as quoted by Landlord and those provisions which
are inappropriate to the business agreement concerning such First Offer Space.
If Tenant shall not so exercise such right within such period, time being of the
essence in respect of such exercise, Tenant shall have no further right of offer
hereunder with respect to such space offered to Tenant and Landlord shall be
free to enter into a lease of such space with another prospective tenant or
tenants upon terms and conditions as Landlord shall determine, which terms may
include rights or options to extend the term or to expand the size of the
premises under such lease or leases provided, however, that if Landlord proposes
to lease such space to a third party during the period which is ninety (90) days
subsequent to Landlord's notice to Tenant advising of the availability of such
space upon terms less favorable to Landlord than contained in Landlord's offer
to Tenant, Landlord must reoffer such space to Tenant for lease in accordance
with this Section 13.

          If Tenant shall exercise any such right of offer and if, thereafter,
the then occupant of the premises with respect to which tenant shall have so
exercised such right wrongfully fails to deliver possession of such premises at
the time when its tenancy is scheduled to expire, Landlord shall use reasonable
efforts and due diligence (which shall be limited to the commencement and
prosecution thereafter of eviction proceedings but which shall not require the
taking of any appeal) to evict such occupant from such space and deliver
possession of such space to Tenant as soon as possible.  Commencement of the
term of Tenant's occupancy and lease of such additional

                                       9
<PAGE>

space shall and Tenant's obligation to pay Annual Fixed Rent or additional rent
with respect to the same, in the event of such holding over by such occupant, be
deferred until possession of the additional space is delivered to Tenant. The
failure of the then occupant of such premises to so vacate shall not give Tenant
any right to terminate the Lease or to deduct from, offset against or withhold
Annual Fixed Rent or additional rent (or any portions thereof).

     14.  Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that the leasing of
(i) the Second Additional Premises B to Tenant as provided in this Second
Amendment is subject to Landlord and Hobbs Group Insurance Brokers, LLC ("Hobbs
Group") executing an agreement to terminate the lease between such parties (the
"Hobbs Group Agreement") and (ii) the Second Additional Premises C to Tenant as
provided in this Second Amendment is subject to Landlord and TMP Worldwide, Inc.
("TMP") executing an agreement to terminate the lease between such parties (the
"TMP Agreement"). In the event that the Hobbs Group Agreement is not executed by
Landlord and Hobbs Group, the terms of this Second Amendment shall be deemed
null and void with respect to the Second Additional Premises B only (and in such
event this Second Amendment shall remain in full force and effect with respect
to the remainder of the Second Additional Premises) and Tenant shall have no
right to lease the Second Additional Premises B. In the event that the TMP
Agreement is not executed by Landlord and TMP the terms of this Second Amendment
shall not become effective until the expiration or earlier termination of the
TMP lease for such space at which time this Second Amendment shall be in full
force and affect with respect to Second Additional Premises C.

     15.  In the event at the time Tenant exercises its right under this
Section, (i) Tenant occupies for its own benefit a minimum of 49,000 square feet
of rentable floor area in the Building (ii) no "Event of Default" (as defined in
Section 7.1 of the Lease) exists and (iii) Tenant has not assigned the Lease or
sublet the Premises (except for an assignment or subletting permitted pursuant
to Section 5.6.1 of the Lease or a sublease which by its terms has expired),
Tenant shall be permitted, at Tenant's expense, to erect an exterior monument
sign in the landscaped area to the right of the main entrance of the Building
containing Tenant's name. The design, size, graphics, color and exact location
of such sign shall be subject to the prior approval of Landlord and to the
requirements of the zoning by- law for the Town of Lexington and other
applicable laws and to Tenant obtaining all necessary permits and approvals
therefor. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Tenant's right to corporate
signage on the Site pursuant to this Section is not on an exclusive basis and
that Landlord may grant other tenants in the Complex the right to signage on the
Site. In the event Tenant erects a sign pursuant to this Section and Tenant
subsequently reduces the size of its Premises, assigns the Lease or subleases
its Premises (except for an assignment or subletting permitted pursuant to
Section 5.6.1) so that Tenant no longer leases from Landlord and occupies at
least 49,000 square feet of rentable square floor area in the Building, Tenant
agrees that it shall remove such signage at Tenant's expense.

     16.  Concurrently with the execution of this Second Amendment, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord a security deposit in the amount of Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000.00) and Landlord shall hold the same throughout the Term of
the Lease (including any extension thereof), unless sooner returned to Tenant as
provided in this Section, as security for the

                                       10
<PAGE>

performance by Tenant of all obligations on the part of Tenant to be performed
under this Lease. At Tenant's option, such deposit, or any portion thereof, may
be in the form of an irrevocable, unconditional, demand letter of credit (the
"Letter of Credit") issued by and drawn on a bank, and in a form reasonably
acceptable to Landlord, which Letter of Credit shall permit one or more draws
thereunder to be made accompanied only by certification by Landlord that
pursuant to the terms of the Lease, Landlord is entitled to apply such Letter of
Credit and the proceeds thereof to an Event of Default of Tenant under the
Lease.  Any such Letter of Credit shall be for a term of two (2) years (or for
one (1) year if the issuer thereof regularly and customarily only issues letters
of credit for a maximum term of one (1) year and shall in either case be renewed
by Tenant each year thereafter and each renewal shall be delivered to and
received by Landlord not later than thirty (30) days before the expiration of
the then current Letter of Credit (herein called a "Renewal Presentation Date").
In the event of a failure to so deliver such renewal Letter of Credit on or
before the applicable Renewal Presentation Date, Landlord shall be entitled to
present the then existing letter of Credit for payment and to receive the
proceeds thereof, which proceeds shall be held as Tenant's security deposit,
subject to the terms of this Section.  Upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default, Landlord shall have the right from time to time without prejudice to
any other remedy Landlord may have on account thereof, to draw on all or any
portion of such deposit held as a Letter of Credit and to apply the proceeds of
such Letter of Credit or any cash held as such deposit, or any part thereof, to
Landlord's damages arising from such Event of Default on the part of Tenant
under the terms of the Lease as amended.  If Landlord so applies all or any
portion of such deposit, Tenant shall within seven (7) days after notice from
Landlord deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore such
deposit to the full amount stated in this Section.  While Landlord holds any
such cash deposit, it shall not be responsible for paying interest thereon
however Landlord shall keep the same (provided it is in excess of $250,000.00)
in an account separate from Landlord's other funds.  Neither the holder of a
mortgage nor the landlord in a ground lease on property which includes the
Premises shall ever be responsible to Tenant for the return or application of
any such deposit, whether or not it succeeds to the position of Landlord
hereunder, unless such deposit shall have been received in hand by such holder
or ground landlord.

     (B)  (a)  Landlord shall return a One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000.00) portion of such deposit to Tenant so that the remainder of such
deposit shall be Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000.00) (or if such deposit
is in the form of a Letter of Credit, Landlord shall exchange the Letter of
Credit for a Letter of Credit delivered by Tenant which reduces the amount
secured by the Letter of Credit by the amount stated hereinabove) on September
1, 2001 if (i) there has never been and is not then an Event of Default under
the terms of the Lease and (ii) Landlord has not applied such deposit or any
portion thereof to Landlord's damages arising from any default on the part of
Tenant, whether or not Tenant has restored the amount so applied by Landlord.

          (b)  Landlord shall return an additional One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000.00) portion of such deposit to Tenant so that the remainder of such
deposit shall be Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00) (or if such
deposit is in the form of a Letter of Credit, Landlord shall exchange the Letter
of Credit for a Letter of Credit delivered by Tenant which reduces the amount
secured by the Letter of Credit by the amount stated hereinabove) in

                                       11
<PAGE>

September 1, 2002 if (i) there has never been and is not then an Event of
Default under the terms of the Lease and (ii) Landlord has not applied such
deposit, or any portion thereof, to Landlord's damages arising from any default
on the part of Tenant, whether or not Tenant has restored the amount so applied
by Landlord.

          (c)  Landlord shall return an additional One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000.00) portion of such deposit to Tenant so that the remainder of such
deposit shall be Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) (or if such deposit
is in the form of a Letter of Credit, Landlord shall exchange the Letter of
Credit for a Letter of Credit delivered by Tenant which reduces the amount
secured by the Letter of Credit by the amount stated hereinabove) on September
1, 2003 if (i) there has never been and is not then an Event of Default under
the terms of the Lease and (ii) Landlord has not applied such deposit, or any
portion thereof, to Landlord's damages arising from any default on the part of
Tenant, whether or not Tenant has restored the amount so applied by Landlord.

          (d)  Tenant not then being in default and having performed all of its
obligations under the Lease, including the payment of all Annual Fixed Rent and
additional rent, Landlord shall return the deposit, or so much thereof as shall
not have theretofore been applied in accordance with the terms of this Section,
to Tenant on the expiration or earlier termination of the term of the Lease (as
the same may have been extended) and surrender possession of the Premises by
Tenant to Landlord in the condition required in the Lease at such time.

     17.  Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that Section 9 of the
First Amendment is hereby deleted in its entirety.

     18.  As of the date hereof the definition of "Number of Parking Spaces"
contained in Section 1.1 of the Lease as amended by Section 7 of the First
Amendment, shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

          NUMBER OF
          PARKING SPACES:      3.3 spaces for every 1,000 square feet of
                               Rentable Floor Area leased by Tenant in the
                               Complex.

     19.  (A)  Tenant warrants and represents that Tenant has not dealt with any
broker in connection with the consummation of this Second Amendment other than
Trammell Crow Company (the "Broker") and in the event any claim is made against
Landlord relative to dealings by Tenant with brokers (other than the Broker),
Tenant shall defend the claim against Landlord with counsel of Tenant's
selection first approved by Landlord (which approval will not be unreasonably
withheld) and save harmless and indemnify Landlord on account of loss, cost or
damage which may arise by reason of such claim.

          (B)  Landlord warrants and represents that Landlord has not dealt with
any broker in connection with the consummation of this Second Amendment (other
than the Broker) and in the event any claim is made against Tenant relative to
dealings by Landlord with brokers,

                                       12
<PAGE>

Landlord shall defend the claim against Tenant with counsel of Landlord's
selection and save harmless and indemnify Tenant on account of loss, cost or
damage which may arise by reason of such claim. Landlord shall be responsible
for the payment of the commission to the Broker in connection with the
consummation of this Second Amendment.

     20.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all capitalized terms
used herein without definition shall have the same meanings as are set forth in
the Lease.

     21.  Except as herein amended the Lease shall remain unchanged and in full
force and effect.  All references to the "Lease" shall be deemed to be
references to the Lease as amended by the First Amendment and as herein amended.

     EXECUTED as a sealed instrument as of the date and year first above
written.

                    (a)  Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this
                    Agreement, at any time through September 22, 2001 (the "2000

                    Percent (100%) of the invoice amount of such equipment

<PAGE>

                    Committed Equipment Line shall be payable monthly on the
                    Payment Date of each month through the month in which the
                    2000 Equipment Availability End Date falls. Amounts
                    currently amortizing under Sections 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 above
                    shall continue to be repaid as provided respectively in
                    Sections 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 above, and shall be treated as
                    existing Equipment Advances under the 1997 Committed
                    Equipment Line and 1999 Committed Equipment Line,
                    respectively. Any Equipment Advances made pursuant to this
                    Section 2.1.5 that are outstanding on the 2000 Equipment
                    Availability End Date will be payable in thirty-six (36)
                    equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued
                    interest, beginning on the Payment Date of the month
                    following the 2000 Equipment Availability End Date and
                    continuing on the Payment Date of each month thereafter and
                    ending on the 2000 Equipment Maturity Date, whereupon all
                    Equipment Advances under the 2000 Committed Equipment Line,
                    together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall
                    be due and payable in full. Equipment Advances, once repaid,
                    may not be reborrowed.

                    (c)  When Borrower desires to obtain an Equipment Advance,
                    Borrower shall notify Bank (which notice shall be
                    irrevocable) by facsimile transmission to be received no
                    later than 3:00 p.m. Eastern time one (1) Business Day
                    before the day on which the Equipment Advance is to be made.
                    Such notice shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B.
                    The notice shall be signed by a Responsible Officer or its
                    designee and include a copy of the invoice for the Equipment
                    to be financed."

                    (d)  In the event the Borrower prepays in whole Equipment
                    Advances made under the 2000 Committed Equipment Line, the
                    Borrower shall be additionally obligated to the Bank for a
                    prepayment fee equal to (i) Twenty Thousand Dollars
                    ($20,000.00) if the 2000 Committed Equipment Line is prepaid

                    between the full amount of the 2000 Committed Equipment Line

                    be paid on the 2000 Equipment Availability End Date, or, if
                    earlier, on the date of any prepayment of the Obligations as
                    specifically provided in Section 2.1.5(d).  The Borrower
                    shall not be entitled to any credit, rebate or repayment of
                    any Unused Line Fee previously earned by the Bank pursuant
                    to this Section notwithstanding any termination of the
                    within Agreement, or suspension or termination of the Bank's
                    obligation to make loans and advances hereunder."
