6.05                        Abatement of Taxes.

Landlord may at any time and from time to time make application to the appropriate Governmental Authority for an abatement of Taxes.  If (i) such an application is successful and (ii) Tenant has made any payment in respect of Taxes pursuant to this Article 6 for the period with respect to which the abatement was granted, Landlord shall (a) deduct from the amount of the abatement all reasonable expenses incurred by it in connection with the application, (b) recompute Tenant’s obligation with respect to Taxes under Section 6.01 and refund any overpayment to Tenant and (c) retain the balance, if any.

If at least twenty (20) days prior to the last day for filing an application for abatement of Taxes for any tax year, Tenant shall give notice to Landlord that it desires to file an application for abatement of such Taxes or to otherwise contest the assessed valuation of the Premises for such tax year, and if within five (5) days after the receipt of such notice Landlord does not give notice back to Tenant that

13

Landlord shall itself file such application or commence such contest, then Tenant shall have the right either in its own name or in the name of Landlord but at its own cost and expense to file such application or commence such contest.  If within five (5) days after receipt by Landlord of such notice from Tenant, Landlord shall give Tenant notice that Landlord shall itself file such application or commence such contest, then Landlord shall do so prior to the expiration of the time for the filing of the same at its own cost and expense.  If Landlord shall not give such notice, then Tenant shall file the same or commence such contest prior to the expiration of the time for filing or commencing the same at its own cost and expense.  In any event, if any abatement by whomever prosecuted shall be obtained, the cost and expense of obtaining the same shall be the first charge upon such abatement and shall be reimbursed to the party expending the same from the proceeds thereof, prior to any other distribution.  If Tenant shall file an application for abatement or commence such contest pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph, Tenant shall prosecute the same to final determination with reasonable diligence and shall not, without Landlord’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle, compromise or discontinue the same except that Tenant may discontinue the prosecution of the same at any time after giving Landlord notice thereof and a reasonable opportunity to assume prosecution of the same.  If Landlord shall file an application for abatement or commence such contest, Landlord shall prosecute the same to final determination with reasonable diligence and shall not without Tenant’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle, compromise, or discontinue the same except that Landlord may discontinue the prosecution of the same at any time after giving Tenant notice thereof and a reasonable opportunity to assume prosecution of the same.  If either party shall file an application for an abatement or commence such contest, the other will cooperate and furnish any pertinent information in its files reasonably required by the prosecuting party.  In every case, any abatement, refund, rebate or credit received shall be paid first to the party which prosecuted such abatement in the amount of the costs and expenses expended by it in such connection, and the balance to each party in the proportion that it paid the tax or assessment being abated, refunded, rebated or credited.  Landlord shall pay any sums due to Tenant from any abatement after receipt of the same even if this Lease shall have expired.  Tenant shall timely pay all sums payable under this Lease in respect of taxes and assessments notwithstanding the pendency of an abatement proceeding or any such contest, unless and to the extent legally permitted to do otherwise.

6.06                        Electric and Gas Service.

Commencing on the Term Commencement Date and for the entirety of the Lease Term, Tenant shall arrange to obtain electricity and gas for the Premises at Tenant’s expense from such source or sources as Landlord shall designate as the source or sources therefor for the Building from time to time.  Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid when due all charges for gas and electricity used in or upon the Premises during the term of this Lease which shall be separately metered for such utilities consumed in or from the Premises. Subject only to Landlord’s obligations under Exhibit C, Landlord shall have no obligation with respect to electricity and gas for the Premises.

6.07                        Late Payment of Rent and Late Charges.

Tenant’s failure to pay Rent, Additional Rent, or any other payments due under this Lease when due under this Lease may cause Landlord to incur unanticipated costs.  The exact amount of such costs are impractical or extremely difficult to ascertain.  Such costs may include, but are not limited to,

14

processing and accounting charges and late charges that may be imposed on Landlord by any ground lease, mortgage, or deed of trust encumbering the Land or Building.

Therefore, if Landlord does not receive the Rent, Additional Rent, or any other payments due under this Lease in full within five (5) days after the due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge, which shall constitute liquidated damages, equal to five percent (5%) of each unpaid portion (“Late Charge”), which shall be paid to Landlord together with such Rent, Additional Rent, or other Lease costs then in arrears.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, so long as Tenant has not been in default in the payment of Rent, Additional Rent and other Lease costs more than once in any twelve (12) consecutive month period, no such Late Charge shall accrue.

The parties agree that such Late Charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost Landlord will incur by reason of such late payment.

For each Tenant payment check to Landlord that is returned by a bank for any reason, Tenant shall pay both a Late Charge (if applicable) and a returned check charge (“Returned Check Charge”) of an amount equal to that charged by Landlord’s bank at the time.

All Late Charges and any Returned Check Charge shall then become Additional Rent and shall be due and payable immediately along with such other Rent, Additional Rent, or other Lease costs then in arrears.

Money paid by Tenant to Landlord shall be applied to Tenant’s account in the following order:  (i) to any unpaid Additional Rent, including, without limitation, Late Charges, Returned Check Charges, legal fees and/or court costs legally chargeable to Tenant, Operating Expenses and Taxes; and then (ii) to unpaid Basic Rent.

Nothing herein contained shall be construed so as to compel Landlord to accept any payment of Rent, Additional Rent, or other Lease costs in arrears or Late Charge or Returned Check Charge should Landlord elect to apply its rights and remedies available under this Lease or at law or in equity in the case of an Event of Default hereunder by Tenant.  Landlord’s acceptance of Rent, Additional Rent, or other Lease costs in arrears or Late Charge or Returned Check Charge pursuant to this clause shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord’s rights and remedies available under this Lease at law or in equity.

6.08                        Tenant Audit Right.

Tenant shall have the right, on reasonable notice to Landlord and at reasonable times, to inspect and review Landlord’s books and records with respect to Operating Expenses, provided that Tenant shall conduct such inspection and review for any year no later than six (6) months after delivery of the statement of Operating Expenses for such year and provided that Tenant shall timely pay all sums due with respect to Operating Expenses notwithstanding that it shall elect to perform such an inspection and review.  Such payment may be made without prejudice to Tenant’s rights under this paragraph.  If it shall be determined that Tenant shall have overpaid any sums on account of Operating Expenses, Landlord shall promptly refund the same.  If the audit discloses any overpayment on the part of Tenant, then Tenant shall be entitled to a credit on the next succeeding installment of rent for an amount equal to the overcharge plus interest on the amount of such overcharge from the date on which

15

Tenant received the statement of Operating Expenses until the date Tenant completes the audit at a rate of 18% per annum, and such credit shall be extended to succeeding installments of rent in the event such overcharge exceeds the amount of the next succeeding such installment and, in the event the term of this Lease has expired or been earlier terminated, then Tenant shall be entitled to a refund of such excess from Landlord within thirty (30) days after completion of the audit.  In addition, in the event such audit by Tenant discloses such an overcharge in excess of the ten percent (10%) of the amount payable in accordance with Article 6 of this Lease, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant the reasonable costs and expenses of such audit, such costs not to exceed thirty-three percent (33%) of the total amount of the overcharge.

Landlord shall review Tenant’s proposed Tenant Improvements Plans and shall notify Tenant in writing within fifteen (15) business days after Landlord’s receipt of same as to whether Landlord approves the Tenant Improvements Plans (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  If Landlord fails to respond to Tenant’s request for review and approval of Tenant’s proposed Tenant Improvements Plans within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of Tenant’s request, Tenant must send a second notice to Landlord, which such second notice must state that it is the second notice to Landlord in connection with Tenant’s request for approval of the Tenant Improvement Plans and that Landlord’s failure to respond to such second notice within five (5) days after receipt thereof shall be deemed Landlord’s approval of the Tenant Improvement Plans.  If Landlord fails to respond to Tenant’s second notice within such five (5) day period, the Tenant Improvement Plans shall be deemed approved by Landlord.

16

If Landlord does not approve the Tenant Improvements Plans, such written notice from Landlord to Tenant shall provide Landlord’s specific and detailed comments and suggestions which, if incorporated into the Tenant Improvements Plans, would render the Tenant Improvements Plans acceptable to Landlord.  Landlord and Tenant shall cooperate with one another in good faith to reach agreement regarding the Tenant Improvements Plans as soon as practicable.  In the event Landlord and Tenant are unable, after complying with the foregoing terms and provisions in this Section 7.02, to reach agreement regarding the Tenant Improvements Plans within ten (10) business days after the date on which Landlord delivers to Tenant Landlord’s specific and detailed comments and suggestions relating to the Tenant Improvements Plans pursuant to this Section 7.02, then until such time as Landlord and Tenant succeed in reaching agreement relative to the Tenant Improvements Plans, either Landlord or Tenant shall be entitled to submit the issue(s) in dispute to expedited arbitration in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 26.21 of the Lease.  Landlord hereby approves the plans shown on Exhibit K, attached hereto, and agrees that it will approve the Tenant Improvement Plans as long as such plans are consistent with the attached plans.  Without limitation, Landlord may withhold approval of any alterations or additions which would (a) require unusual expense to readapt the Premises to normal office, research and development, warehousing, and distribution uses upon termination of this Lease or (b) increase the cost of insurance; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be entitled to withhold Landlord’s approval of such alterations or additions for the reasons described in clauses (a) or (b) if Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for such unusual expenses or the amount of the increase in the cost of insurance, if any, associated with Tenant’s alterations or additions.

23

sentence of this paragraph hereof), provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord be required to expend in the repair of the Premises and any other portions of the Building sustaining such damage more than the proceeds of such insurance made available to it by its mortgagee.  The work shall be commenced within thirty (30) days after receipt of the insurance proceeds and completed with due diligence except for delays due to governmental regulation, unusual scarcity of or inability to obtain labor or materials, or causes beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, and Landlord shall be entitled to receive and retain the proceeds of all insurance against the damage.  If insurance is not carried against the damage, or if the available insurance proceeds, in Landlord’s sole judgment, would be insufficient to cover the cost of repair to the Premises (inclusive of Tenant Improvements installed prior to the Basic Rent Commencement Date), Landlord shall either restore the Premises (inclusive of Tenant Improvements installed prior to the Basic Rent Commencement Date) to the same condition it was in prior to the damage or taking, including any alterations or improvements made by parties other than Landlord, or terminate this Lease by giving Tenant, within sixty (60) days after the damage, at least fifteen (15) days prior notice specifying the termination date.  Landlord acknowledges that Tenant may request that the Premises be restored pursuant to this Section 17.01 to a different, but better, condition than the prior condition of the Premises; provided, however, that if the cost of restoring the Premises to a different condition exceeds the cost of restoring the Premises to its existing condition, then Tenant shall pay the difference in such costs to the extent not covered by insurance proceeds to Landlord prior to commencement of restoration.

In the event that the Building is damaged or destroyed to the extent that Landlord shall reasonably determine that the same cannot, with reasonable diligence, be fully repaired or restored by Landlord within a period of nine (9) months after the date of receipt of insurance proceeds, Landlord and Tenant each shall have the option to terminate this Lease.  Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing within thirty (30) days after the date of such damage or destruction of its determination whether or not the Building can be fully repaired or restored within such nine (9) month period (“Determination Notice”).  In the event Landlord determines that restoration cannot be effected within such nine (9) month period, Landlord or Tenant each shall have the option to terminate this Lease by giving notice to the other party of such termination within seven (7) days after the date of the Determination Notice, which notice shall specify a termination date not less than forty-five (45) days nor more than sixty (60) days following the date of the notice (“Termination Notice”).  Failure to send the Termination Notice in a timely manner shall be conclusively presumed to be a waiver of such option to terminate.  If Landlord determines that the Building can be fully repaired or restored within such nine (9) month period, or if it is determined that such repair or restoration cannot be made within such period but neither Landlord or Tenant elects to terminate, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect.

If the Premises are materially damaged by fire or other casualty during the last twenty-four (24) months of the Term and Tenant has not exercised its Term extension rights under this Lease and the estimated restoration period exceeds the lesser of (i) ninety (90) days or (ii) twenty-five percent (25%) of the remaining Term, then either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right, exercisable by notice delivered within thirty (30) days after the date of such fire or other casualty,  to terminate this Lease, effective as of the date of delivery of such notice.

In case the Premises are rendered untenantable by fire or other casualty or action of public authority in consequence thereof, and this Lease is not terminated as herein provided, a just proportion

27

of the Rent and real estate taxes, according to the nature of the injury, shall be abated until the repair is completed.

17.02                 Restoration.

Landlord may, but shall not be required to, repair or restore any Tenant Improvements made after the Basic Rent Commencement Date, but if Tenant requests that Landlord do so and Landlord agrees to do so, Tenant shall make the insurance proceeds applicable thereto available to Landlord, and if the insurance proceeds will be insufficient to pay the cost thereof, Tenant shall pay the amount of insufficiency to Landlord prior to commencement of restoration of such Tenant Improvements by Landlord.  If Landlord agrees to restore any Tenant Improvements made after the Basic Rent Commencement Date, the nine (9) month period described in Section 17.01 shall be increased to take into account the additional time required to restore such Tenant Improvements, such additional time not to exceed three (3) months.  Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair, or replace any part of Tenant’s furniture, furnishings or fixtures or equipment. Landlord shall use diligent efforts to minimize impact on Tenant during restoration, but shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof unless Landlord fails to exercise such diligent efforts.

ARTICLE 18
Eminent Domain

18.01                 Total Taking.

If the Premises or the Building should be the subject of a Total Taking, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of the Building or the Premises is taken by the condemning authority.

18.02                 Partial Taking.

If there shall occur a Partial Taking, Rent shall be abated by an amount representing that part of the Rent properly allocable to the portion of the Premises so taken and Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole expense, restore and reconstruct the Building (to the extent of the net proceeds made available to Landlord) and the Premises to substantially their former condition to the extent that the same, in Landlord’s judgment, may be feasible.  The Landlord shall have no liability for interruption of Tenant’s business.

18.03                 Awards and Proceeds.

All Proceeds payable in respect of a Taking shall be the property of Landlord.  Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all rights of Tenant in or to such Proceeds, provided that Tenant shall be entitled to separately petition the condemning authority for any separate award for its moving expenses and trade fixtures but only if such a separate award will not diminish the amount of Proceeds payable to Landlord.

ARTICLE 19

Quiet Enjoyment; Mortgagee’s Rights

19.01                 Landlord’s Covenant.

Provided that an Event of Default has not occurred and is not then continuing, Tenant shall, subject to the Permitted Exceptions, quietly have and enjoy the Premises during the Lease Term, without hindrance or molestation from any Person lawfully claiming by, through or under Landlord.

19.02                 Superiority of Lease:  Option to Subordinate.

The Building is not subject to a mortgage as of the date hereof.  In the event that the Building shall become subject to any mortgage or deed of trust lien, and the holder thereof desires to subordinate this Lease,  Landlord, Tenant and applicable lender shall enter into a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement (“SNDA”) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant (Tenant hereby agrees that the form attached hereto as Exhibit G is acceptable).  Tenant agrees to execute and deliver any appropriate instruments necessary to carry out the agreements contained in this Section 19.02.

19.03                 Notice to Mortgagee.

No act or failure to act on the part of Landlord which would entitle Tenant under the terms of this Lease, or by law, to be relieved of Tenant’s obligations hereunder or to terminate this Lease, shall result in a release or termination of such obligations or a termination of this Lease unless (i) Tenant shall have first given written notice of Landlord’s act or failure to act to Landlord’s mortgagees of which Tenant has been given notice by Landlord (if any) specifying the act or failure to act on the part of Landlord which could or would give rise to Tenant’s rights, and (ii) such mortgagees, after receipt of such notice, have had the opportunity to cure such default within a reasonable time thereafter (not to exceed sixty (60) days after the date of such notice); but nothing contained in this Section 19.03 shall be deemed to impose any obligation on any such mortgagees to correct or cure any such condition.

19.04                 Other Provisions Regarding Mortgagees.

If this Lease or the Rent due hereunder is assigned to a mortgagee as collateral security for a loan, no such mortgagee shall be deemed to have assumed any of Landlord’s obligations hereunder solely as a result of such assignment.  A mortgagee to whom this Lease has been so assigned shall be deemed to have assumed such obligations only if (i) by the terms of the instrument of assignment such mortgagee specifically elects to assume such obligations or (ii) such mortgagee has (a) foreclosed its mortgage, (b) accepted a deed in lieu thereof, (c) taken possession of the Premises by entry or otherwise, or (d) assumed such obligations by way of an SNDA or other agreement with Tenant.  Even if such mortgagee assumes the obligations of Landlord hereunder, but except to the extent provided in an SNDA or other agreement between the mortgagee and Tenant, (i) any such obligation under Section 24.01 to return the Security Deposit to Tenant shall be limited to the amount actually received by the mortgagee with respect thereto, and (ii) such mortgagee will be liable for breaches of any of Landlord’s obligations hereunder only to the extent such breaches occur during the period of ownership by the mortgagee after foreclosure (or any conveyance by a deed in lieu thereof), all as set

29

forth in Section 25.08. hereof.  If Tenant is not a public company, Tenant shall from time to time, at the request of Landlord or any of Landlord’s mortgagees, provide Landlord and such mortgagee with financial information pertaining to Tenant as Landlord or such mortgagee may reasonably request.

ARTICLE 20

Defaults; Events of Default

20.01                 Defaults.

The following shall, if any requirement for notice or lapse of time or both has not been met, constitute Defaults, and, if such requirement for notice or lapse of time have been met, constitute Events of Default hereunder:

(1)                                  Occurrence of any event set forth in Article 21 hereof;

(2)                                  The failure of Tenant to pay Rent when the same shall be due and payable and the continuance of such failure for a period of five (5) days after Landlord shall give Tenant notice specifying such failure, provided, however, that if Tenant has failed to timely pay Rent more than two (2) times in a twelve (12) month period, Tenant shall not be entitled to further notice from Landlord;

(3)                                  The failure of Tenant to observe any covenant made by it in Sections 13.01, 15.01 and 25.03 hereof;

(4)                                  The failure of Tenant to keep, observe or perform any of the other covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on Tenant’s part to be kept, observed or performed and the continuance of such failure without the curing of same for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of notice in writing from Landlord specifying in reasonable detail the nature of such failure.

20.02                 Extended Cure Period.

In the event that the Default under Section 20.01(4) is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within such thirty (30) day period, then such Default shall not be deemed to be an Event of Default so long as Tenant, after receiving such notice, proceeds to cure the Default as soon as reasonably possible and continues to take all steps reasonably necessary to complete the same within a period of time which, under all prevailing circumstances, shall be reasonable.  No such Default shall be deemed to be an Event of Default if and so long as Tenant shall be so proceeding to cure the same in good faith or be delayed in or prevented from curing the same by reason of Force Majeure.

30

ARTICLE 21

Insolvency

21.01                 Insolvency.

If (1) there occurs with respect to Tenant an Insolvency or (2) any execution or attachment is issued against Tenant or any of its property and as a result thereof the Premises are taken or occupied by some Person other than Tenant, except as may herein be permitted, then an Event of Default hereunder shall be deemed to have occurred so that the provisions of Article 22 hereof shall become effective and Landlord shall have the rights and remedies provided for therein.

ARTICLE 22

Landlord’s Remedies; Damages on Default

22.01                 Landlord’s Remedies.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Landlord may, at its option, give to Tenant a notice terminating this Lease upon a date specified in such notice, or Landlord may enter the Premises for the purpose of terminating this Lease, and upon the date specified in said notice or upon such entry the term and estate hereby vested in Tenant shall cease and any and all other right, title and interest of Tenant hereunder shall likewise cease without further notice or lapse of time, as fully and with like effect as if the entire Lease Term had lapsed, but Tenant shall continue to be liable to Landlord as hereinafter provided.

If such Event of Default results from Tenant’s failure to pay any sums payable under Section 7.01, Landlord may, at its option, in addition to or in lieu of the other remedies available to Landlord, refuse Tenant access to the Premises.

22.02                 Surrender.

Upon any termination of this Lease as the result of an Event of Default, Tenant shall quit and peacefully surrender the Premises to Landlord.  Upon or at any time after any such termination, Landlord may without further notice enter the Premises and possess itself thereof by summary proceedings or otherwise, and may dispossess Tenant and remove Tenant and all other Persons and property from the Premises and may have, hold and enjoy the Premises and the right to receive all rental income of and from the same.

22.03                 Right to Relet.

At any time from time to time after any termination of this Lease as the result of an Event of Default, Landlord may relet the Premises or any part thereof, in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Lease Term) and on such conditions (which may include concessions or free rent) as Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, may determine and may collect and receive the rents therefor.  Landlord shall in no way be responsible or liable for any failure to relet the Premises or any part thereof, or for any failure to collect any rent due upon any such reletting.

31

22.04                 Survival of Covenants.

No termination of this Lease as the result of an Event of Default shall relieve Tenant of its liability and obligations under this Lease and such liability and obligations shall survive any such termination.  Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, cost, expense, damage or liability arising out of or in connection with such termination.

In the event of any such termination, Tenant shall pay to the Landlord the Rent up to the date of such termination.  Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, on demand, as and for liquidated and agreed damages for Tenant’s Default, the present value of the difference between

(1)                                  the aggregate Rent which would have been payable under this Lease by Tenant from the date of such termination until the Stated Expiration Date, and

(2)                                  the fair and reasonable rental value of the Premises for the same period excluding Landlord’s reasonable estimate of expenses to be incurred in connection with reletting the Premises, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, reasonable attorney’s fees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such reletting.

If the Premises or any part thereof shall be relet by Landlord before presentation of proof of such liquidated damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such reletting shall be, prima facie, the fair and reasonable rental value for the part or the whole of the Premises so relet during the term of the reletting.

As additional and cumulative obligations after any such termination, Tenant shall also pay punctually to Landlord all the sums and shall perform all the obligations which Tenant covenants in this Lease to pay and to perform in the same manner and to the same extent and at the same time as if this Lease had not been terminated.  In calculating the amounts to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the preceding sentence, Tenant shall be credited with any amount paid to Landlord pursuant to the second paragraph of this Section 22.04 and also with the net proceeds of any rent obtained by Landlord by reletting the Premises, after deducting all Landlord’s reasonable expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs,  fees for legal services and expenses of preparing the Premises for such reletting, all to the extent Landlord has not been previously compensated therefor by Tenant, it being agreed by Tenant that Landlord may (i) relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option be equal to or less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term hereof and may grant such concessions and free rent as Landlord in its reasonable judgment considers advisable or necessary to relet the same and (ii) make such alterations, repairs and decorations in the Premises as Landlord in its reasonable judgment considers advisable or necessary to relet the same, and no action of Landlord in accordance with the foregoing or failure to relet or to collect rent under reletting shall operate or be construed to release or reduce Tenant’s liability as aforesaid.

Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove for and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency by reason of the termination of this Lease, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing

32

the proceedings in which, such damages are to be proved, whether or not such amount be greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the difference referred to above.

22.05                 Right to Equitable Relief.

If there shall occur a Default or threatened Default, Landlord shall be entitled to enjoin such Default or threatened Default and shall have the right to invoke any right and remedy allowed at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise as though re-entry, summary proceedings, and other remedies were not provided for in this Lease.

22.06                 Landlord’s Right to Self Help;  Interest on Overdue Rent.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Landlord shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to enter upon the Premises and to perform  the defaulted obligation notwithstanding the fact that no specific provision for such substituted performance by Landlord is made in this Lease with respect to such Event of Default.  In performing such obligation, Landlord may make any payment of money or perform any other act.  The aggregate of (i) all sums so paid by Landlord, (ii) interest (at the rate of 1 1/2% per month or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is less) on such sums and (iii) all necessary incidental costs and expenses in connection with the performance of any such act by Landlord, shall be deemed to be Rent under this Lease and shall be payable to Landlord immediately upon demand.  Landlord may exercise the foregoing rights without waiving any other of its rights or releasing Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease.

All Rent not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate provided in the preceding paragraph, payable on demand.

22.07                 Payment of Landlord’s Cost of Enforcement.

Tenant shall pay, on demand, Landlord’s expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in enforcing any obligation of Tenant under this Lease or in curing any default by Tenant under this Lease as provided in Section 22.06.

22.08                 Further Remedies.

Upon any termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 22.01, or at any time thereafter, Landlord may, in addition to and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies Landlord shall have at law or in equity, re enter the Premises, and recover possession thereof and may dispossess any or all occupants of the Premises in the manner prescribed by the statute relating to summary proceedings, or similar statute(s); but Tenant in such case shall remain liable to Landlord as hereinbefore provided.

33

ARTICLE 23

Waivers; Landlord Default

23.01                 No Waivers.

Failure of Landlord to complain of any act or omission on the part of Tenant no matter how long the same may continue, shall not be deemed to be a waiver by said Landlord of any of its rights hereunder.  No waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed a waiver of a breach of the same or any other provision.  No acceptance by Landlord of any partial payment shall constitute an accord or satisfaction but shall only be deemed a partial payment on account.

23.02                 Landlord Default

Landlord shall be deemed to be in default of this Lease if Landlord shall be in default in the prompt and full performance of any other of its promises, covenants or agreements contained in this Lease and such default in performance continues for more than thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Tenant to Landlord specifying the particulars of such default or breach of performance; provided, however, that if the default complained of, other than for the payment of monies, is of such a nature that the same cannot be rectified or cured within such thirty (30) day period, then such default shall be deemed to be rectified or cured if Landlord, within such thirty (30) day period, shall have commenced such cure and shall continue thereafter with due diligence to cause such cure to be completed.  Upon any default of this Lease by Landlord, Tenant shall be entitled to pursue any and all remedies available to Tenant at law or in equity.

ARTICLE 24

Security Deposit

24.01                 Security Deposit.

Tenant has deposited the Security Deposit with Landlord.  Landlord shall hold the Security Deposit as security for the full and faithful payment or performance by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease and not as a prepayment of Rent. Landlord may commingle the Security Deposit with other funds of Landlord and shall not be liable to Tenant for the payment of interest thereon or profits therefrom. Landlord may expend such amounts from the Security Deposit as may be necessary to cure any Default and, in such case, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount so expended, on demand.  Landlord may assign the Security Deposit to any subsequent owner of the Building and thereafter Landlord shall have no further liability to Tenant with respect thereto.  As soon as reasonably practicable after the Lease Termination Date, Landlord shall (i) inspect the Premises, (ii) make such payments from the Security Deposit as may be required to cure any outstanding Default hereunder and (iii) if no Default is then continuing, pay the balance of the Security Deposit to Tenant.

The Security Deposit may be in the form of an irrevocable, unconditional, negotiable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”). The Letter of Credit shall: (a) be in the  amount required hereby; (b) be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord; (c) name Landlord as its beneficiary; (d) be drawn on an FDIC insured financial institution reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord; (e) expire no earlier than sixty (60) days after the Termination Date of this Lease (f) be transferable by Landlord as beneficiary

34

upon presentation of the letter of credit, a transfer certificate in the form attached to the letter of credit and the payment by Landlord of a transfer administrative fee acceptable to Landlord set forth on the face of the letter of credit.  If any reasonable transfer fee is required in connection with the sale of the Building by Landlord, Landlord shall be solely responsible for payment of such fee. If Landlord shall reasonably determine at any time that the issuer is no longer satisfactory, Tenant shall provide a replacement Letter of Credit complying with the foregoing within thirty (30) days after notice from Landlord.

ARTICLE 25

General Provisions

25.01                 Force Majeure.

In the event that Landlord or Tenant shall be delayed, hindered in or prevented from the performance of any act required hereunder by reason of Force Majeure, then performance of such act shall be excused for the period of the delay and the period for the performance of any such act shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay.

25.02                 Notices and Communications.

All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications provided for or permitted under this Lease shall be in writing, either delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid or by a recognized courier which maintains delivery records, to the following address:

(b)                                 if to Tenant at the address stated in Section 1.01 hereof, or at such other address as Tenant shall have designated in writing to Landlord, with a copy to such persons as Tenant shall have designated in writing to Landlord.

Any notice provided for herein shall become effective only upon and at the time of receipt by the Person to whom it is given, unless such notice is mailed by registered or certified mail, in which case it shall be deemed to be received on (i) the third Business Day following the mailing thereof or (ii) the day of its receipt, if a Business Day, or the next succeeding Business Day, whichever of (i) or (ii) shall be the earlier.

25.03                 Tenant Estoppel Certificate.

Tenant shall, without charge, at any time and from time to time hereafter, within fifteen (15) days after written request of Landlord, certify by written instrument in the form of Exhibit F, duly executed and acknowledged to Landlord or any mortgagee or purchaser, or proposed mortgagee or proposed purchaser, or any Person specified in such request; (a) as to whether this Lease has been supplemented or amended, and if so, the substance and manner of such supplement or amendment, (b) 

35

as to the existence of any Default or Event of Default, (c) as to the existence of any offsets, counterclaims or defenses thereto on the part of Tenant, (d) as to the Term Commencement Date and Stated Expiration Date, and (e) as to the other matters set forth in Exhibit F and any other matters as Landlord may reasonably request.  Any such certificate may be relied upon by Landlord and any other Person to whom the same may be exhibited or delivered, and the contents of such certificate shall be binding on the party executing same.

25.04                 Governing Law.

This Lease and the performance thereof shall be governed, interpreted, construed and regulated by the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

25.05                 Partial Invalidity.

If any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, at any time or to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term, covenant, condition and provision of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

25.06                 Notice of Lease.

The parties will at any time, at the request of either one, promptly execute duplicate originals of an instrument, in recordable form, which will constitute a Notice of Lease, setting forth a description of the Premises and the Lease Term.  The cost of review and recording shall be borne by Tenant.

25.07                 Interpretation.

The Section headings used herein are for reference and convenience only and shall not enter into the interpretation hereof.  This Lease may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

25.08                 Bind and Inure; Limitation of Landlord’s Liability.

The obligations of this Lease shall run with the land, and this Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. No owner of the Land and Building shall be liable under this Lease except for breaches of Landlord’s obligations occurring while owner of the Land and Building.  The obligations of Landlord shall be binding upon the assets of Landlord which comprise the Land and Building but not upon other assets of Landlord.  No individual partner, trustee, stockholder, officer, director, employee or beneficiary of Landlord shall be personally liable under this Lease and Tenant shall look solely to Landlord’s interest in the Land and Building in pursuit of its remedies upon an event of default hereunder, and the general assets of Landlord and its partners, trustees, stockholders, officers, employees or beneficiaries of Landlord shall not be subject to levy, execution or other enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of the remedies of Tenant.

25.09                 Parties.

Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in this Lease shall be binding upon the heirs, successors and assigns of the Parties hereto.

ARTICLE 26

Miscellaneous

26.01                 Holdover.

In the event Tenant shall fail to vacate the Premises by the Lease Termination Date, Tenant shall pay Basic Rent to Landlord in an amount equal to one and one-half (1.5) times the monthly Basic Rent for each month or portion thereof that Tenant remains in possession (the “Holdover Rental Rate”). Tenant shall also pay all Additional Rent provided herein.  The Holdover Rental Rate shall be paid monthly in advance to Landlord.  In determining the Holdover Rental Rate Landlord shall charge one and one-half (1.5) times the monthly Basic Rent in effect for the last full calendar month of the Lease Term.  In addition to the Holdover Rental Rate, Landlord shall be entitled to seek to recover full damages sustained as a result of said holdover if such holdover is greater than thirty (30) days after the Lease Termination Date.

26.02                 Reciprocal Litigation Costs

In the event of any litigation between Landlord and Tenant, the unsuccessful party as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction shall reimburse the successful party for all reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by the successful party in prosecuting or defending any such action.

26.03                 Brokerage.

Tenant warrants and represents to Landlord that it has had no dealings with any broker or agent in connection with this Lease other than T3 Realty Advisors, LLC and covenants to defend, with counsel approved by Landlord, hold harmless and indemnify Landlord from and against any and all cost, expense or liability for any compensation, commissions and charges claimed by any broker or agent other than T3 Realty Advisors, LLC based upon dealings with Tenant.  Landlord shall pay T3 Realty Advisors, LLC a commission based on a standard Industrial schedule.

In the event Tenant exercises its Right of First Offer during the original lease term on the additional 22,000 square feet and a mutually acceptable lease amendment is executed between Landlord and Tenant incorporating this additional square footage into the Lease, and T3 Realty Advisors, LLC remains the broker of record, T3 Realty Advisors, LLC shall be paid an additional commission by the Landlord based on a standard industrial schedule.

26.04                 Landlord’s Expenses Regarding Consents.

Tenant shall reimburse Landlord promptly on demand for all reasonable legal and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with all requests by Tenant for consent or

37

approval hereunder, except that there shall be no charge to Tenant for Landlord’s review of the initial Tenant Improvement Plans.

26.05                 Financial Statements.

If Tenant is not a public company, within ten (10) days after request by Landlord from time to time, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord Tenant’s audited financial statements (which shall be for the latest available year and in any event for a year ended not more than fifteen (15) months prior to Landlord’s request).  Such financial statements may be delivered to Landlord’s mortgagees and lenders and prospective mortgagees, lenders, investors and purchasers.

26.06                 Signage.

Landlord will permit Tenant to install, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, exterior building signage on the I-495 (east) side of the Building as well as monument signage at the main entrance off  Flanders Road and on the exterior of the Building above the main entrance.  Landlord will provide appropriate directional signage for deliveries.  All signage shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable prior approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, and in accordance with Legal Requirements.

26.07                 Option to Extend Term.

Tenant shall have the option to extend the term of this Lease for one (1) five (5) year extension term (“Extension Term”) provided (i) no Event of Default shall exist at the time such option is exercised (ii) Tenant has not assigned this Lease or sublet the Premises at the time such option is exercised, and (iii) Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord of its exercise of such option not less than nine (9) months prior to expiration of the original term, time being of the essence for the giving of such notice.  The giving of such notice by Tenant shall automatically extend the Term of this Lease for the Extension Term and no instrument of renewal need be executed.  All of the terms and provisions of this Lease shall be applicable during the Extension Term except (a) Tenant shall have no option to extend the term of the Lease beyond the Extension Term, (b) the Basic Rent for the Extension Term shall be the greater of the Basic Rent in effect immediately prior to the Extension Term or ninety-five percent (95%) of the then Market Rent (defined below) as of the first day of the Extension Term.

“Market Rent” shall be computed as of the applicable date at the then current rentals being charged to new tenants for comparable space located in the vicinity of the Building, taking into account and giving effect to, in determining comparability, without limitation, such considerations as size, location, and lease term.

Landlord shall initially designate the Market Rent and shall furnish data in support of such designation.  If Tenant disagrees with Landlord’s designation of Market Rent, then Tenant shall have the right, by written notice given within twenty-one (21) days after Tenant has been notified of Landlord’s designation, to submit such Market Rent to arbitration as follows.  Market Rent shall be determined by arbitrators, one to be chosen by Tenant, one to be chosen by Landlord and a third to be selected, if necessary, as below provided.  If within twenty (20) days after Tenant’s notice, the parties

38

agree upon a single arbitrator, Market Rent shall be determined by such arbitrator.  The unanimous written decision of the two first chosen arbitrators without selection and participation of a third arbitrator, or otherwise the written decision of a majority of the three arbitrators chosen and selected as provided herein, shall be conclusive and binding upon Landlord and Tenant.  Landlord and Tenant shall each notify the other of its chosen arbitrator within twenty-one (21) days following the call for arbitration and, unless such two arbitrators shall have reached a unanimous decision within thirty (30) days after their designation, then they shall so notify the then President of the Boston Bar Association and request him to select an impartial third arbitrator, who shall be another office building owner, a real estate counselor or a broker dealing with like types of properties, to determine Market Rent as herein defined.  Such third arbitrator and the first two chosen shall hear the parties and their evidence and render their decision within thirty (30) days following the conclusion of such hearing and notify Landlord and Tenant thereof. Landlord and Tenant shall bear the expense of the third arbitrator (if any) equally.
