INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

This Agreement, made and entered into as of this _____ day of _______,  ______, ("Agreement"), by and between Brooks Automation, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and ___________________. (the "Indemnitee").

WHEREAS, highly competent persons are reluctant to serve corporations as directors, officers or in other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of the corporation; and

WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified; and

WHEREAS, Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that Indemnitee be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

(a)Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 4.03 if, by reason of Indemnitee's Corporate Status, Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or is otherwise involved in any Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor.  Indemnitee shall be indemnified against Expenses, judgments, penalties, and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee's behalf in connection with such Proceeding if Indemnitee acted in Good Faith and such Indemnitee has not been adjudged during the course of such Proceeding to have derived an Improper Personal Benefit from the transaction or occurrence forming the basis of such Proceeding.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company if applicable law prohibits such indemnification; provided, however, that, if applicable law so permits, indemnification shall nevertheless be made by the Company in such event if and only to the extent that the Court which is considering the matter shall so determine.

4.04Indemnification of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of Indemnitee's Corporate Status, a party to or is otherwise involved in and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified, to the maximum extent permitted

by law, against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines, and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee's behalf in connection therewith.  If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee, to the maximum extent permitted by law, against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines, and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee's behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter.  For purposes of this Section 4.04 and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter.

4.05Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of Indemnitee's Corporate Status, a witness in any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee's behalf in connection therewith.

ARTICLE VI

Procedures for Determination of Entitlement

to Indemnification and Defense of Claims

6.01Initial Request.  To obtain indemnification under this Agreement (other than advancement of Expenses pursuant to Article V), Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification.  The Secretary of the Company shall promptly advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification.

6.02Method of Determination.  A determination (if required by applicable law in the specific case) with respect to Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification shall be made (a) by the Board by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Disinterested Directors, or (b) in the event that a quorum of the Board consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, such quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee, or (c) by the holders of a majority of the votes of the outstanding stock at the time entitled to vote on matters

other than the election or removal of directors, voting as a single class, including the stock of the Indemnitee.

6.03Selection, Payment, Discharge, of Independent Counsel.  In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 6.02 of this Agreement, the Independent Counsel shall be selected, paid, and discharged in the following manner:

(a)The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising Indemnitee of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected.

(b)Following the initial selection described in clause (a) of this Section 6.03, Indemnitee may, within seven (7) days after such written notice of selection has been given, deliver to the Company a written objection to such selection.  Such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of "Independent Counsel" as defined in Section 1.09 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion.  Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel.  If such written objection is made, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until a court has determined that such objection is without merit.

(c)Either the Company or Indemnitee may petition a Court if the parties have been unable to agree on the selection of Independent Counsel within twenty (20) days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.01 of this Agreement.  Such petition may request a determination whether an objection to the party's selection is without merit and/or seek the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the Court or by such other person as the Court shall designate.  A person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 6.03 of this Agreement.

(d)The Company shall pay any and all reasonable fees of Independent Counsel and expenses incurred by such Independent Counsel in connection with acting pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the procedures of this Section 6.03, regardless of the manner in which such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed.

(e)Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 8.02 of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).

6.04Cooperation.  Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination.  Any costs or expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall

be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

6.05Defense of Claim.  With respect to any Proceeding to which Indemnitee shall have requested indemnification in accordance with Section 6.01:

(a)The Company will be entitled to participate in the defense at its own expense.

(b)Except as otherwise provided below, the Company jointly with any other indemnifying party will be entitled to assume the defense with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee.  After notice from the Company to the Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a suit, the Company will not be liable to the Indemnitee under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of the Proceeding other than reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided below.  The Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his own counsel in such Proceeding but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Company of its assumption of the defense shall be at the expense of the Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of counsel by the Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company, (ii) the Indemnitee shall have concluded reasonably that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action and such conclusion is confirmed in writing by the Company's outside counsel regularly employed by it in connection with corporate matters or (iii) the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the Company.  The Company shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company or as to which the Indemnitee shall have made the conclusion provided for in (ii) above and such conclusion shall have been so confirmed by the Company's said outside counsel.

(c)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be liable to indemnify the Indemnitee under this Article of any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding or claim effected without its written consent.  The Company shall not settle any Proceeding or claim in any manner which would impose any penalty, limitation or disqualification of the Indemnitee for any purpose without the Indemnitee's written consent.  Neither the Company nor the Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold their consent to any proposed settlement.

6.06Payment.  If it is determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification not covered by defense of the claim afforded under Section 6.05 above, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination.

ARTICLE VII

Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings

7.01Burden of Proof.  In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has

submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 6.01 of this Agreement, and the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption.

7.02Effect of Other Proceedings.  The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of guilty or of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in Good Faith.

7.03Reliance as Safe Harbor.  For purposes of any determination of Good Faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in Good Faith if Indemnitee's action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the Officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise.  The provisions of this Section 7.03 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.

7.04Actions of Others.  The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, Officer, employee, agent, trustee or fiduciary of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.

Arbitration Association.  Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in arbitration within one hundred eighty (180) days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this Section 8.02.  The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee's right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration.

8.03De Novo Review.  In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Article VI of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Article VIII shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination.  In any such proceeding or arbitration, the Company shall have the burden of proving that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be.

8.04Company Bound.  If a determination shall have been made or deemed to have been made pursuant to Article VI of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or any omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee's statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.

8.05Procedures Valid.  The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Article VIII that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.

8.06Expenses of Adjudication.  In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Article VIII, seeks a judicial adjudication of or an award in arbitration to enforce Indemnitee's rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover from the Company, and shall be indemnified by the Company against, any and all expenses (of the types described in the definition of Expenses in Section 1.06 of this Agreement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in such adjudication or arbitration, but only if Indemnitee prevails therein.  If it shall be determined in such adjudication or arbitration that Indemnitee is entitled to receive part but not all of the indemnification or advancement of Expenses sought, the expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such adjudication or arbitration shall be appropriately prorated.

ARTICLE IX
