("Lessor") and ART TECHNOLOGY GROUP, INC. ("Lessee"). Reference is made to the following facts: A. Lessor and Lessee entered into a lease agreement dated March 9, 2001 (the "Lease"), relating to approximately 117,985 rentable square feet of certain premises located on floors 6, 7 and 8 of the building known and numbered as Building 1000 at One Kendall Square, Cambridge, Massachusetts (the "Building"), and more particularly described in the Lease (the "Premises"). B. The Lease is presently schedule to expire in accordance with its terms on August 31, 2006. Lessee's business planning has changed so that Lessee no longer requires use of the Premises. As a result, Lessee desires to terminate the Lease. C. As an accommodation to Lessee, Lessor is willing to terminate the Lease, as of the Effective Termination Date (as hereafter defined), in consideration of payment by Lessee to Lessor of the "Termination Fee" (as hereafter defined) and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in this Agreement. Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants and consideration set forth herein and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Lessor and Lessee agree as follows: 1. EFFECTIVE TERMINATION DATE. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lessee and Lessor agree that the Lease is hereby terminated, effective as of the Effective Termination Date as if the Effective Termination Date were the date set forth in the Lease for expiration of the original term of the Lease. As used herein, the term "Effective Termination Date" shall mean the date that all of the following events have occurred: (a) full execution of this Agreement by Lessor and Lessee; (b) Lessee shall have delivered to Lessor the Amended Letter of Credit (as hereafter defined), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "A"; and (c) Lessee shall not at such time be in default under the Lease and shall have paid all amounts required under the Lease up to the Effective Termination Date, including, without limitation, all rent and additional rent. 2. LEASE TERMINATION PAYMENTS. Lessee covenants and agrees to pay to Lessor a fee of Nine Million Three Hundred Eight Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($9,308,500.00) ("Termination Fee") in installment payments in the amounts and on or before each of the dates set forth below in this Section 2, without deduction, or offset and without notice or demand to Lessor at the following address: One Amgen Center Drive, MS-34-2-A, Thousand Oaks, CA 91320, Attention: Corporate Real Estate or to such other person or at such other place as Lessor may from time to time designate in writing. 1
Lessee, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, shall execute a promissory note in the amount of Nine Million Three Hundred Eight Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($9,308,500.00) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "B" ("PROMISSORY NOTE"). 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT. The original irrevocable letter of credit in the amount of Three Million Seven Hundred Sixteen Thousand Five Hundred Twenty Seven Dollars and Fifty Cents ($3,716,527.50) (the "Original Letter of Credit") issued as a security deposit under the Lease remains issued and outstanding. Lessee agrees to deliver to Lessor, upon the execution of this Agreement an amended Original Letter of Credit increased to the amount of Eight Million Dollars ($8,000,000.00) which shall secure Lessee's obligations under this Agreement (collectively, together with all Replacement Letters of Credit (as defined below), the "Amended Letter of Credit"). The Amended Letter of Credit shall be (a) unconditional, (b) drawn on Silicon Valley Bank or such bank as Lessee shall from time to time use with the reasonable approval of Lessor, (c) addressed to Lessor, (d) permit partial draws, and (e) be payable upon simple demand by the Lessor accompanied by a sworn statement of an authorized officer of Lessor stating that the drawing represents the amount due the Lessor from the Lessee under this Agreement. The Amended Letter of Credit shall have a maturity of at least twelve (12) months, and the Lessee shall renew the same, annually, at least thirty (30) days prior to its expiration date until the entire Termination Fee has been paid. The Amended Letter of Credit provider must have and maintain a long term credit rating of "A" or better by either Moody's or Standard & Poors or a bank having and maintaining a long term credit rating of "A" or better by either Moody's or Standard & Poors shall confirm the Amended Letter of Credit. The Amended Letter of Credit shall be held by Lessor as security for the faithful performance by Lessee of all the 2 terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement to be kept. If Lessee fails to pay any sum required under this Agreement or the Promissory Note within ten (10) calendar days of the date when due thereunder, Lessor may (without giving Lessee any notice) immediately draw upon or use the entire amount of or any portion of the Amended Letter of Credit. After each Lease Termination Installment Amount has been paid in full to Lessor, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2 above, Lessee shall have the right to reduce the amount of the Amended Letter of Credit by an amount equal to the applicable Lease Termination Installment Amount by providing a replacement Amended Letter of Credit ("Replacement Letter of Credit") reduced by said amount in accordance with the requirements of the prior paragraph, provided that the Amended Letter of Credit shall not be reduced until such time as the sum then owed by Lessee under this Agreement is less than the original amount of the Amended Letter of Credit, and provided further, that at no time thereafter shall the amount of the Amended Letter of Credit be reduced to any amount less than the sum of the remaining Lease Termination Installment Amounts to be paid by Lessee hereunder. 4. NO TENANT IMPROVEMENT ALLOWANCE. Lessor and Lessee agree that Lessor shall have no obligation to pay any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance of $4,719,400.00 as set forth in Section 2.5 of the Lease. 5. RE-LEASING OF PROPERTY. Lessor shall have full right to re-lease all or a portion of the Premises.

Lessee agrees to surrender the Premises to Lessor on or before the Effective Termination Date, together with all keys (and any copies thereof) and access cards to the Premises. The Premises shall be surrendered to Lessor free from all occupants, subtenants, or other persons or entities claiming rights of possession by, through or under Lessee. The Premises shall be surrendered to Lessor in the condition required by the Lease upon surrender, and any property of Lessee which shall remain in the Premises shall be deemed abandoned and may be disposed of by Lessor at Lessee's expense without prior notice to Lessee. Lessor recognizes that the Premises were never used or occupied by Lessee or any sub-tenant of Lessee and accordingly agrees that barring any material change in the condition of the Premises due to the actions of Lessee prior to the Effective Termination Date, the Premises currently meet the condition required by the Lease upon turn-in. Base rent and regular installments of monthly rent due under the Lease for any partial month ending on the Effective Termination Date shall be prorated. 7. MUTUAL RELEASES. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 8 below, and provided that Lessee timely surrenders the Premises in accordance with Paragraph 6 above on or before the Effective Termination Date, Lessor does hereby release and forever discharge Lessee from any and all claims, liabilities and obligations arising under and pursuant to the terms of the Lease with respect to the period prior to, from and after the Effective Termination Date, including but not limited to Lessee's obligations to make any further rental payments to Lessor under the Lease.
