THIS INDENTURE OF LEASE (this “Lease”) is hereby made and entered into on the Execution Date by and between Landlord and Tenant.
Each reference in this Lease to any of the terms and titles contained in any Exhibit attached to this Lease shall be deemed and construed to incorporate the data stated under that term or title in such Exhibit. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them as set forth in the Lease Summary Sheet which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
1. LEASE GRANT; TERM; APPURTENANT RIGHTS; EXCLUSIONS
1.1 Lease Grant. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, the Premises upon and subject to terms and conditions of this Lease, for a term of years commencing on the Term Commencement Date and, unless earlier terminated or extended pursuant to the terms hereof, ending on the Expiration Date (the “Initial Term”; the Initial Term and any duly exercised Extension Terms are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Term”).
1.2 Extension Terms.
(a) Provided that the following conditions, which may be waived by Landlord in its sole discretion, are satisfied (i) Tenant, an Affiliated Entity (hereinafter defined) and/or a Successor (hereinafter defined) is/are then occupying sixty (60%) percent of the Premises; and (ii) no Event of Default nor an event which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute an Event of Default has occurred (1) as of the date of the Extension Notice (hereinafter defined), and (2) at the commencement of the applicable Extension Term (hereinafter defined), Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term for two (2) additional terms of five (5) years each (each, an “Extension Term”), commencing as of the expiration of the Initial Term, or the prior Extension Term, as the case may be. Tenant must exercise such option to extend, if at all, by giving Landlord written notice (the “Extension Notice”) on or before the date that is nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the then-current term of this Lease, time being of the essence. Upon the timely giving of such notice, the Term shall be deemed extended upon all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that Base Rent during each Extension Term shall be calculated in accordance with this Section 1.2, Landlord shall have no obligation to construct or renovate the Premises, and Tenant shall have one (1) fewer option to extend the Term. If Tenant fails to give timely notice, as aforesaid, Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Term. Notwithstanding the fact that Tenant’s proper and timely exercise of such option to extend the Term shall be self-executing, the parties shall promptly execute a mutually agreed upon lease amendment reflecting such Extension Term after Tenant exercises such option. The execution of such lease amendment shall not be deemed to waive any of the conditions to Tenant’s exercise of its rights under this Section 1.2.
(b) The Base Rent during each Extension Term (the “Extension Term Base Rent”) shall be determined in accordance with the process described hereafter. Extension Term Base Rent shall be the fair market rental value of the Premises then demised to Tenant as of the
1
commencement of the applicable Extension Term as determined in accordance with the process described below, for renewals and new leases of Class A office/research/laboratory building/campus in the Lexington/Waltham real estate market (“Market Area”) and all relevant factors, including, without limitation, tenant improvement funds and free rent, to be taken into account. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Tenant is paying a premium rent based on other buildings in the Market Area. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Extension Notice, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant written notice of its determination of the Extension Term Base Rent for the applicable Extension Term. Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant accepts or rejects Landlord’s determination of the Extension Term Base Rent (“Tenant’s Response Notice”). If Tenant fails timely to deliver Tenant’s Response Notice, Landlord’s determination of the Extension Term Base Rent shall be binding on Tenant.
(c) If and only if Tenant’s Response Notice is timely delivered to Landlord and indicates both that Tenant rejects Landlord’s determination of the Extension Term Base Rent and desires to submit the matter to arbitration, then the Extension Term Base Rent shall be determined in accordance with the procedure set forth in this Section 1.2(c). In such event, within ten (10) days after receipt by Landlord of Tenant’s Response Notice indicating Tenant’s desire to submit the determination of the Extension Term Base Rent to arbitration, Tenant and Landlord shall each notify the other, in writing, of their respective selections of an appraiser (respectively, “Landlord’s Appraiser” and “Tenant’s Appraiser”). Landlord’s Appraiser and Tenant’s Appraiser shall then jointly select a third appraiser (the “Third Appraiser”) within ten (10) days of their appointment. All of the appraisers selected shall be individuals with at least ten (10) consecutive years’ commercial appraisal experience for office and laboratory space in the area in which the Premises are located, shall be members of the Appraisal Institute (M.A.I.), and, in the case of the Third Appraiser, shall not have acted in any capacity for either Landlord or Tenant within five (5) years of his or her selection. The three appraisers shall determine the Extension Term Base Rent in accordance with the requirements and criteria set forth in Section 1.2(b) above, employing the method commonly known as Baseball Arbitration, whereby Landlord’s Appraiser and Tenant’s Appraiser each sets forth its determination of the Extension Term Base Rent as defined above, and the Third Appraiser must select one or the other (it being understood that the Third Appraiser shall be expressly prohibited from selecting a compromise figure). Landlord’s Appraiser and Tenant’s Appraiser shall deliver their determinations of the Extension Term Base Rent to the Third Appraiser within five (5) days of the appointment of the Third Appraiser and the Third Appraiser shall render his or her decision within ten (10) days after receipt of both of the other two determinations of the Extension Term Base Rent. The Third Appraiser’s decision shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant. Each party shall bear the cost of its own appraiser and the cost of the Third Appraiser shall be paid by the party whose determination is not selected.
1.3 Appurtenant Rights.
(a) Common Areas. Subject to the terms of this Lease and the Rules and Regulations (hereinafter defined), Tenant shall have, as appurtenant to the Premises, rights to use in common with others entitled thereto, the following areas (such areas are hereinafter referred to

During the Term, Landlord shall, subject to the terms hereof, make available up to one hundred thirty-nine (139) parking spaces for Tenant’s use free of charge (except that the costs of maintenance and repair of the parking areas shall, subject to the provisions of Section 5.2, be included in Operating Costs) in the Parking Areas serving the Building (up to 81 parking spaces in the adjacent Garage with the balance to be located on the surface portions of the Parking Areas), of which (x) three (3) parking spaces shall be designated for visitor parking and located near the entrance of the Building and (y) three (3) parking spaces shall be designated for visitor parking and located in the adjacent Garage. The number of parking spaces in the parking areas reserved for Tenant, as modified pursuant to this Lease or as otherwise permitted by Landlord, are hereinafter referred to as the “Parking Spaces.” Tenant shall have no right to hypothecate or encumber the Parking Spaces, and shall not sublet, assign, or otherwise transfer the Parking Spaces other than to employees of Tenant occupying the Premises or to a Successor (hereinafter defined), an Affiliated Entity (hereinafter defined), or a transferee pursuant to an approved Transfer under Section 13 of this Lease. Subject to Landlord’s right to reserve parking for other tenants of the Building, said Parking Spaces will be on an unassigned, non-reserved basis, and shall be subject to such Rules and Regulations, as may be in effect for the use of the parking areas from time to time. Reserved and handicap parking spaces must be honored. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall have the right during any period of time that Landlord is performing construction or maintenance work on the Campus, upon at least three (3) months’ prior written notice to Tenant, to temporarily relocate all or any portion of the Parking Spaces in to other portions of the Property and/or parking areas owned, controlled or leased by Landlord and located on Hayden Avenue in Lexington. If Landlord elects to relocate Tenant’s Parking Spaces, Landlord (at its sole cost and expense) shall provide, for the duration of such temporary relocation, shuttle service to and from such temporary parking location. In addition, Landlord may, at its election, implement valet parking in order to accommodate the parking needs of the Property from time to time.
(c) Rooftop Premises. During the Term, Tenant shall have the right to use a portion of the rooftop of the Building designated by Landlord (the “Rooftop Premises”) for the installation of certain equipment approved by Landlord and purchased and installed by Tenant in
3
accordance with the terms of this Lease (any equipment installed within the Rooftop Premises, as the same may be modified, altered or replaced during the Term, is collectively referred to herein as “Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment”). Landlord’s approval of such equipment shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed provided Tenant demonstrates to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction that the proposed equipment (i) does not interfere with any base building equipment operated by Landlord on the roof; (ii) will not affect the structural integrity of the Building or impact the roof or the roof membrane in any manner; (iii) shall be adequately screened (excluding a wimax (internet) antenna) so as to minimize the visibility of such equipment; and (iv) shall be adequately sound-proofed to meet all requirements of Legal Requirements and Landlord’s specified maximum decibel levels for equipment operations. Tenant shall not install or operate Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment until Tenant has obtained and submitted to Landlord copies of all required governmental permits, licenses, and authorizations necessary for the installation and operation thereof. In addition, Tenant shall comply with the Tenant Construction Building Rules and Regulations set forth in Exhibit 9-2, and all future Tenant Construction Building Rules and Regulations in connection with the installation, maintenance and operation of Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment. Landlord shall have no obligation to provide any services including, without limitation, electric current or gas service, to the Rooftop Premises or to Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment, provided, however, that Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost, shall, subject to the provisions of this Lease (including, without limitation, Section 11 hereof) have the right to install wiring in locations designated by Landlord in order to connect Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment to Tenant’s electrical system serving the Prime Premises. Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of repairing and maintaining Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment and the cost of repairing any damage to the Building, or the cost of any necessary improvements to the Building, caused by or as a result of the installation, replacement and/or removal of Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment. Landlord makes no warranties or representations to Tenant as to the suitability of the Rooftop Premises for the installation and operation of Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment. In the event that at any time during the Term, Landlord determines, in its sole but good faith business judgment, that the operation and/or periodic testing of Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment interferes with the operation of the Building or the business operations of any of the occupants of the Building, then Tenant shall, upon notice from Landlord, cause all further testing of Tenant’s Rooftop Equipment to occur after normal business hours (hereinafter defined).
(d) Cafeteria.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, except where a Tenant Delay arises from Tenant’s failure timely to act within on or before a date or time period expressly set forth in the Lease (in which event
13
no Tenant Delay Notice shall be required): (x) in no event shall any act or omission be deemed to be a Tenant Delay until and unless Landlord has given Tenant written notice (the “Tenant Delay Notice”) advising Tenant (a) that a Tenant Delay is occurring, and (b) of the basis on which Landlord has determined that a Tenant Delay is occurring, and (y) no period of time prior to the time that Tenant receives a Tenant Delay Notice shall be included in the period of time charged to Tenant pursuant to such Tenant Delay Notice.

(d) cause harmful air emissions, laboratory odors or noises or any reasonably objectionable odors, noises or emissions to emanate from the Premises, Tenant hereby agreeing that if another tenant or occupant of the Building or the Campus notifies Landlord that it objects to an air emission, odor or noise emanating from the Premises, then such air emission, odor, noise shall be deemed to be objectionable, if reasonable given the circumstances (Tenant expressly agreeing that if Landlord’s objection is based upon the complaint of another tenant or occupant of the Premises or the Complex, then Landlord’s objection shall be deemed to be reasonable); (iv) in a manner which is inconsistent with the operation and/or maintenance of the Building as a first-class combination office, research, development and laboratory facility; (v) for any fermentation processes whatsoever; or (vi) in a manner which shall increase such insurance rates on the Building or on property located therein (and Landlord shall provide Tenant with evidence documenting that Tenant’s use is the cause of such increase in the insurance rates) over that applicable when Tenant first took occupancy of the Premises hereunder, provided that Tenant’s use of the Premises for the Permitted Uses, as opposed to the manner of use of the Premises by Tenant, shall never be deemed a violation of this Section 4.2(a).
With respect to the use and occupancy of the Premises and the Common Areas, Tenant will not: (i) place or maintain any signage (except as set forth in Section 12.2 below), trash, refuse or other articles in any vestibule or entry of the Premises, on the footwalks or corridors adjacent thereto or elsewhere on the exterior of the Premises, nor obstruct any driveway, corridor, footwalk, parking area, mall or any other Common Areas; (ii) permit undue accumulations of or burn garbage, trash, rubbish or other refuse within or without the Premises; (iii) permit the parking of vehicles so as to interfere with (x) the ability of others, entitled thereto, to park in the common parking areas, or (y) the use of any driveway, corridor, footwalk, parking area, or other Common Areas; (iv) receive or ship articles of any kind outside of those areas reasonably designated by Landlord; (v) conduct or permit to be conducted any auction, going out of business sale, bankruptcy sale (unless directed by court order), or other similar type sale in or connected with the Premises; (vi) use the name of Landlord, or any of Landlord’s affiliates in any publicity, promotion, trailer, press release, advertising, printed, or display materials without Landlord’s prior written consent; or (vii) except in connection with Alterations (hereinafter defined) approved by Landlord in accordance with Section 11 or cosmetic alterations including, without limitation, artwork or whiteboards, which shall not require Landlord’s approval, cause or permit any hole to be drilled or made in any part of the Building.

Tenant shall establish and maintain with respect to its use of wastewater facilities exclusively serving the Leased Premises, an MWRA waste water discharge program administered by a qualified individual (which individual may be (i) a third party contractor/consultant approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, or (ii) an employee of Tenant or Tenant’s affiliate) in accordance with the requirements of the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (“MWRA”) and any other applicable governmental authority. Tenant shall be solely responsible for all costs incurred in connection with such MWRA waste water program, and Tenant shall provide Landlord with such documentation as Landlord may reasonably require evidencing Tenant’s compliance with the requirements of (a) the MWRA and any other applicable governmental authority with respect to such chemical safety program and (b) this Section. Tenant shall obtain and maintain during the Term (i) any permit required by the MWRA (“MWRA Permit”) and (ii) a wastewater treatment operator license from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts with respect to Tenant’s use of Tenant’s Acid Neutralization Tank.

4.5 Parking and Traffic Demand Management Plan. The Property is subject to a Parking and Traffic Demand Management Plan with the Town of Lexington (the “Initial PTDM”). Tenant agrees, at its sole expense, to comply with the requirements of the Initial PTDM, only insofar as they apply to the Premises and/or Tenant’s use and occupancy thereof. In the event that the Initial PTDM is ever modified, supplemented, amended or replaced (“PTDM Modifications”), Tenant agrees, at its sole expense, to comply with the requirements of the PTDM Modifications, only insofar as they apply to the Premises and/or Tenant’s use and occupancy thereof.
4.6 Vivarium. Tenant shall be responsible, at its sole expense, for the operations of its vivarium in accordance with all Legal Requirements and with best industry practices. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, Tenant shall separately dispose of all waste products from the operation of Tenant’s vivarium, including, without limitation, dead animals, strictly in accordance with Legal Requirements. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time by written notice to Tenant, to promulgate Rules and Regulations with respect to the operation of Tenant’s vivarium so as to minimize any adverse effects that such operation may have on other occupants of the Building, including without limitation, regulations as to noise mitigation.
5. RENT; ADDITIONAL RENT

Commencing as of the Base Rent Commencement Date and continuing thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term, Tenant shall pay Base Rent to Landlord in equal monthly installments, in advance and without demand on the first day of each month for and with respect to such month. Commencing as of the Additional Rent Commencement Date and continuing thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs, Tenant’s Share of Taxes, and utility costs
17
(collectively “Additional Rent”) to Landlord in accordance with this Section 5. Base Rent shall be pro-rated for any partial months.

Rent shall be payable to Landlord or, if Landlord shall so direct in writing, to Landlord’s agent or nominee, in lawful money of the United States which shall be legal tender for payment of all debts and dues, public and private, at the time of payment.
5.2 Operating Costs.
(a) “Operating Costs” shall mean all costs incurred and expenditures made by Landlord in the operation, management, repair, replacement, maintenance and insurance (including, without limitation, environmental liability insurance and property insurance on Landlord-supplied leasehold improvements for tenants, but not property insurance on tenants’ equipment) of the Property or allocated to the Property, including without limitation all costs incurred by Landlord (compensation, fringe benefits, worker’s compensation insurance premiums, and payroll taxes, etc.) with respect to all persons directly engage in managing the Building up to and including the Property Manager, however denominated, any costs for utilities supplied to exterior areas and the Common Areas, and any costs for repair and replacements, cleaning and maintenance of exterior areas and the Common Areas, related equipment, facilities and appurtenances and HVAC equipment, security services, a management fee in the amount of four percent (4%) of gross Building revenues (increased, if applicable, in accordance with Section 5.2(f)), the costs, including, without limitation, a commercially reasonable rental factor, of Landlord’s management office for the Property, which management office may be located outside the Property and which may serve other properties in addition to the Property (in which event such costs shall be equitably allocated among the properties served by such office), the cost of operating any amenities in the Property available to all tenants of the Property and any subsidy provided by Landlord for or with respect to any such amenity, and all costs of applying and reporting for the Building or any part thereof to seek or maintain certification under the U.S. EPA’s Energy Star® rating system, the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system or a similar system or standard. For costs and expenditures made by Landlord in connection with the operation, management, repair, replacement, maintenance and insurance of the Building as a whole, Landlord shall make a reasonable allocation thereof between the retail and non-retail portions of the Building, if applicable. Prior to the creation of the Condominium in accordance with Section 2.2, Landlord shall allocate Operating Costs which are incurred with respect to the Common Areas of the Campus on a fair and equitable basis. Landlord shall not collect any item of cost more than once. Since the Garage is located on the Land is for the exclusive benefit of the tenants of the Building, all Operating Costs incurred by Landlord with respect to the Garage shall be allocated to the Property. After the creation of the Condominium, such allocation shall be made in accordance with the Condominium Documents establishing the Condominium. Operating Costs shall not include Excluded Costs (hereinafter defined).
(b) “Excluded Costs” shall be defined as (i) any fixed or percentage ground rent payable to any ground lessor, or any mortgage charges (including interest, principal, points and fees); (ii) brokerage commissions; (iii) salaries of executives and owners not directly
18
employed in the management/operation of the Property; (iv) the cost of work done by Landlord for a particular tenant; (v) the cost of items which, by generally accepted accounting principles, would be capitalized on the books of Landlord or are otherwise not properly chargeable against income, except to the extent such capital item is (A) required by any Legal Requirements (not in effect on the date of this Lease), or (B) reasonably projected to reduce Operating Costs, but only to the extent of the reasonably anticipated savings in Operating Costs from such capital item; (vi) the costs of Landlord’s Work and any contributions made by Landlord to any tenant of the Property in connection with the build-out of its premises; (vii) franchise or income taxes imposed on Landlord; (viii) costs paid directly by individual tenants to suppliers, including tenant electricity, telephone and other utility costs; (ix) increases in premiums for insurance when such increase is caused by the use of the Building by Landlord or any other tenant of the Building; (x) depreciation of the Building; (xi) costs relating to maintaining Landlord’s existence as a corporation, partnership or other entity; (xii) advertising and other fees and costs incurred in procuring tenants; (xiii) the cost of any items for which Landlord is reimbursed by insurance, condemnation awards, refund, rebate or otherwise, and any expenses for repairs or maintenance to the extent covered by warranties, guaranties and service contracts; (xiv) costs incurred in connection with any disputes between Landlord and its employees, between Landlord and Building management, or between Landlord and other tenants or occupants; (xv) Taxes; (xvi) costs of services or other benefits that are not offered to Tenant; (xvii) costs for services, supplies or repairs paid to any entities affiliated with Landlord in excess of costs that would be payable in an “arm’s length” or unrelated situation for comparable services, supplies, or repairs; (xviii) costs incurred in connection with: (1) the survey or testing of asbestos or any other Hazardous Materials at the Building or elsewhere (provided however, that the survey or testing of Hazardous Materials which is required by any Legal Requirement which first becomes effective after the Execution Date of this Lease shall not be excluded from Operating Costs pursuant to this clause (1), and (2) the remediation or removal of Excluded Hazardous Materials, as hereinafter defined); (xix) reserves for repairs, maintenance or replacements; (xx) the cost of any “tap fees” or one-time lump-sum sewer or water connection fees for the Building; (xxi) liability costs, not related to property damage, directly resulting from the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agents, employees, or contractors; or (xxii) acquisition costs for sculptures, paintings, and other art objects. “Excluded Hazardous Materials” shall be defined as all Hazardous Materials, other than: (A) any material or substance located in the Building or the Property on the Execution Date which, as of the Execution Date, is not considered under then existing Legal Requirements, to be a Hazardous Material, but which is subsequently determined to be a Hazardous Material by reason of a Legal Requirement which first becomes effective after the Execution Date of this Lease, and (B) any material or substance is introduced to the Building or the Property after the Execution Date which, when introduced to the Building or the Property, was not then (i.e., at the time of introduction to the Building or the Property) considered, as a matter of any Legal Requirement, to be a Hazardous Material, but which is subsequently determined to be a Hazardous Material by reason of Legal Requirements which first becomes effective after the date of introduction of such material or substance to the Building or the Property.
(c) Payment of Operating Costs. Commencing as of the Additional Rent Commencement Date and continuing thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term of the
19
Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs. Landlord may make a good faith estimate of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs for any fiscal year or part thereof during the term, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the Additional Rent Commencement Date and on the first (1st) day of each calendar month thereafter, an amount equal to Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs for such fiscal year and/or part thereof divided by the number of months therein. Landlord may estimate and re-estimate in good faith Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to Tenant, provided that Landlord shall not re-estimate more than once in any twelve-(12)-month period. Thereafter, the monthly installments of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so that, by the end of the fiscal year in question, Tenant shall have paid all of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs as estimated by Landlord. Any amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment as herein provided when actual Operating Costs are available for each fiscal year. As of the Execution Date, the Property’s fiscal year is January 1 – December 31.
(d) Annual Reconciliation. Landlord shall, within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year, deliver to Tenant a reasonably detailed statement of the actual amount of Operating Costs for such fiscal year (“Year End Statement”). Failure of Landlord to provide the Year End Statement within the time prescribed shall not relieve Tenant from its obligations hereunder. If the total of such monthly remittances on account of any fiscal year is greater than Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs actually incurred for such fiscal year, then, provided no Event of Default has occurred nor any event which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute an Event of Default, Tenant may credit the difference against the next installment of Additional Rent on account of Operating Costs due hereunder, except that if such difference is determined after the end of the Term, Landlord shall refund such difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such determination to the extent that such difference exceeds any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord. If the total of such remittances is less than Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs actually incurred for such fiscal year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord, as Additional Rent hereunder, within ten (10) days of Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefor. Landlord’s estimate of Operating Costs for the next fiscal year shall be based upon the Operating Costs actually incurred for the prior fiscal year as reflected in the Year-End Statement plus a reasonable adjustment based upon estimated increases in Operating Costs. The provisions of this Section 5.2(d) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
(e) Part Years. If the Additional Rent Commencement Date or the Expiration Date occurs in the middle of a calendar year, Tenant shall be liable for only that portion of the Operating Costs with respect to such calendar year within the Term.
(f) Gross-Up. If, during any fiscal year, less than 95% of the Building is occupied by tenants or if Landlord was not supplying all tenants with the services being supplied to Tenant hereunder, actual Operating Costs incurred shall be reasonably extrapolated by Landlord on an item-by-item basis to the reasonable Operating Costs that would have been incurred if the Building was 95% occupied and such services were being supplied to all tenants, and such extrapolated Operating Costs shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to be the
20
Operating Costs for such fiscal year. This “gross up” treatment shall be applied only with respect to variable Operating Costs arising from services provided to Common Areas or to space in the Building being occupied by tenants (which services are not provided to vacant space or may be provided only to some tenants) in order to allocate equitably such variable Operating Costs to the tenants receiving the benefits thereof.
5.3 Taxes.
(a) “Taxes” shall mean the real estate taxes and other taxes, levies and assessments imposed upon the Building and the Land, and upon any personal property of Landlord used in the operation thereof, or on Landlord’s interest therein or such personal property; charges, fees and assessments for transit, housing, police, fire or other services or purported benefits to the Building and the Land (including without limitation any community preservation assessments); service or user payments in lieu of taxes; and any and all other taxes, levies, betterments, assessments and charges arising from the ownership, leasing, operation, use or occupancy of the Building and the Land or based upon rentals derived therefrom, which are or shall be imposed by federal, state, county, municipal or other governmental authorities. Taxes shall not include (i) any inheritance, estate, succession, gift, transfer, franchise, rental, income or profit tax, capital stock tax, capital levy or excise, or any income taxes arising out of or related to the ownership and operation of the Building and the Land, provided, however, that any of the same and any other tax, excise, fee, levy, charge or assessment, however described, that may in the future be levied or assessed as a substitute for or an addition to, in whole or in part, any tax, levy or assessment which would otherwise constitute Taxes, whether or not now customary or in the contemplation of the parties on the Execution Date of this Lease, shall constitute Taxes, but only to the extent calculated as if the Building and the Land were the only real estate owned by Landlord, (ii) penalties or interest for late payment of Taxes, except to the extent that such late payment is caused by Tenant’s failure time to pay such Taxes and the penalties and interest imposed by the Taxing authority as the result of late payment exceeds the interest and late fees due from Tenant under the Lease as the result of such late payment of Taxes. “Taxes” shall also include reasonable expenses (including without limitation legal and consultant fees) of tax abatement or other proceedings contesting assessments or levies.
Landlord shall allocate Taxes which are incurred with respect to the Common Areas of the Campus on a reasonable basis. From and after substantial completion of any occupiable improvements constructed as part of a Future Development, if such improvements are not separately assessed, Landlord shall reasonably allocate Taxes between the Building and such improvements and the land area associated with the same. From and after the creation of the Condominium for the Campus, such allocation shall be effected based upon the Taxes payable by Landlord with respect to the unit in the Condominium in which the Property is located.
(b) “Tax Period” shall be any fiscal/tax period in respect of which Taxes are due and payable to the appropriate governmental taxing authority (i.e., as mandated by the governmental taxing authority), any portion of which period occurs during the Term of this Lease.
21
(c) Payment of Taxes. Commencing as of the Additional Rent Commencement Date and continuing thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term of the Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, Tenant’s Share of Taxes. Landlord may make a good faith estimate of the Taxes to be due by Tenant for any Tax Period or part thereof during the Term, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the Rent Commencement Date and on the first (1st) day of each calendar month thereafter, an amount equal to Tenant’s Share of Taxes for such Tax Period or part thereof divided by the number of months therein. Landlord may estimate and re-estimate in good faith Tenant’s Share of Taxes and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to Tenant, provided that Landlord shall not re-estimate more than once in any twelve-(12)-month period. Thereafter, the monthly installments of Tenant’s Share of Taxes shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so that, by the end of the Tax Period in question, Tenant shall have paid all of Tenant’s Share of Taxes as estimated by Landlord. Any amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment as herein provided when actual Taxes are available for each Tax Period. If the total of such monthly remittances is greater than Tenant’s Share of Taxes actually due for such Tax Period, then, provided no Event of Default has occurred nor any event which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute an Event of Default, Tenant may credit the difference against the next installment of Additional Rent on account of Taxes due hereunder, except that if such difference is determined after the end of the Term, Landlord shall refund such difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such determination to the extent that such difference exceeds any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord. If the total of such remittances is less than Tenant’s Share of Taxes actually due for such Tax Period, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord, as Additional Rent hereunder, within ten (10) days of Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefor. Landlord’s estimate for the next Tax Period shall be based upon actual Taxes for the prior Tax Period plus a reasonable adjustment based upon estimated increases in Taxes. The provisions of this Section 5.3(c) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
(d) Effect of Abatements. Appropriate credit against Taxes shall be given for any refund obtained by reason of a reduction in any Taxes by the assessors or the administrative, judicial or other governmental agency responsible therefor after deduction of Landlord’s expenditures for reasonable legal fees and for other reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining the Tax refund.
(e) Part Years. If the Additional Rent Commencement Date or the Expiration Date occurs in the middle of a Tax Period, Tenant shall be liable for only that portion of the Taxes, as the case may be, with respect to such Tax Period within the Term.
5.4 Late Payments.
(a) Any payment of Rent due hereunder not paid when due shall bear interest for each month or fraction thereof from the due date until paid in full at the annual rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, or at any applicable lesser maximum legally permissible rate for debts of this nature (the “Default Rate”).
22
(b) Additionally, if Tenant fails to make any payment within five (5) business days after the due date therefor, Landlord may charge Tenant a fee, which shall constitute liquidated damages, equal to three (3%) of any such late payment.
(c) For each Tenant payment check to Landlord that is returned by a bank for any reason, Tenant shall pay a returned check charge equal to the amount as shall be customarily charged by Landlord’s bank at the time.
(d) Money paid by Tenant to Landlord shall be applied to Tenant’s account in the following order: first, to any unpaid Additional Rent, including without limitation late charges, returned check charges, legal fees and/or court costs chargeable to Tenant hereunder; and then to unpaid Base Rent.
(e) The parties agree that the late charge referenced in Section 5.4(b) represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of any late payment by Tenant, and the payment of late charges and interest are distinct and separate in that the payment of interest is to compensate Landlord for the use of Landlord’s money by Tenant, while the payment of late charges is to compensate Landlord for Landlord’s processing, administrative and other costs incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s delinquent payments. Acceptance of a late charge or interest shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to the overdue amount or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or at law or in equity now or hereafter in effect.
5.5 No Offset; Independent Covenants; Waiver. Rent shall be paid without notice or demand, and without setoff, counterclaim, defense, abatement, suspension, deferment, reduction or deduction, except as expressly provided herein. TENANT WAIVES ALL RIGHTS (I) TO ANY ABATEMENT, SUSPENSION, DEFERMENT, REDUCTION OR DEDUCTION OF OR FROM RENT, AND (II) TO QUIT, TERMINATE OR SURRENDER THIS LEASE OR THE PREMISES OR ANY PART THEREOF, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN. TENANT HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE OBLIGATIONS OF TENANT HEREUNDER SHALL BE SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS, THAT RENT SHALL CONTINUE TO BE PAYABLE IN ALL EVENTS AND THAT THE OBLIGATIONS OF TENANT HEREUNDER SHALL CONTINUE UNAFFECTED, UNLESS THE REQUIREMENT TO PAY OR PERFORM THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN TERMINATED PURSUANT TO AN EXPRESS PROVISION OF THIS LEASE. LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE INDEPENDENT NATURE OF THE OBLIGATIONS OF TENANT HEREUNDER REPRESENTS FAIR, REASONABLE, AND ACCEPTED COMMERCIAL PRACTICE WITH RESPECT TO THE TYPE OF PROPERTY SUBJECT TO THIS LEASE, AND THAT THIS AGREEMENT IS THE PRODUCT OF FREE AND INFORMED NEGOTIATION DURING WHICH BOTH LANDLORD AND TENANT WERE REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL SKILLED IN NEGOTIATING AND DRAFTING COMMERCIAL LEASES IN MASSACHUSETTS, AND THAT THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS AND AGREEMENTS CONTAINED HEREIN ARE MADE
23
WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLDING IN WESSON V. LEONE ENTERPRISES, INC., 437 MASS. 708 (2002). SUCH ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, AGREEMENTS AND WAIVERS BY TENANT ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO LANDLORD ENTERING INTO THIS LEASE.
5.6 Audit Right. Provided there is no Event of Default nor any event which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute an Event of Default, Tenant may, upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, inspect or audit Landlord’s records relating to Operating Costs for any periods of time within the previous calendar year before the audit or inspection. However, no audit or inspection shall extend to periods of time before the calendar year in which the Additional Rent Commencement Date occurs. If Tenant fails to object to the calculation of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs on the Year-End Statement within sixty (60) days after such statement has been delivered to Tenant and/or fails to complete any such audit or inspection within ninety (90) days after Tenant’s objection to the Year End Statement, then Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to the calculation of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs for the year in question and the calculation thereof as set forth on such statement shall be final. Tenant’s audit or inspection shall be conducted only at Landlord’s offices or the offices of Landlord’s property manager during business hours reasonably designated by Landlord. Tenant shall pay the cost of such audit or inspection. Tenant may not conduct an inspection or have an audit performed more than once during any fiscal year. If such inspection or audit reveals that an error was made in the calculation of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs previously charged to Tenant, then, provided there is no Event of Default nor an event which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute an Event of Default, Tenant may credit the difference against the next installment of additional rent on account of Operating Costs due hereunder, except that if such difference is determined after the end of the Term, Landlord shall refund such difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such determination to the extent that such difference exceeds any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord. If such inspection or audit reveals an underpayment by Tenant, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent hereunder, any underpayment of any such costs, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice therefor. If, after such inspection or audit is made, it is finally determined or agreed that there was an error made in the calculation of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs previously charged to Tenant so that the amount billed to Tenant was in error in excess of five percent (5%) of the actual costs, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant the reasonable cost of such an audit. Tenant shall maintain the results of any such audit or inspection confidential and shall not be permitted to use any third party to perform such audit or inspection, other than an independent firm of certified public accountants (A) reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (B) which is not compensated on a contingency fee basis or in any other manner which is dependent upon the results of such audit or inspection, and (C) which executes a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement whereby it shall agree to maintain the results of such audit or inspection confidential. The provisions of this Section 5.6 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
5.7 Survival. Any obligations under this Section 5 which shall not have been paid at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term shall survive such expiration or earlier termination and shall be paid when and as the amount of same shall be determined and be due.
24
6. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
7. LETTER OF CREDIT
7.1 Amount. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord either (i) cash in the amount specified in the Lease Summary Sheet (the “Cash Security Deposit”), which shall be held by Landlord in accordance with Section 7.4 below, or (ii) an irrevocable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) that shall (a) be in the initial amount of One Million One Hundred Fifty-Six Thousand Seven Hundred Eight and 35/100 ($1,156,708.35) Dollars; (b) be issued on the form attached hereto as Exhibit 6; (c) name Landlord as its beneficiary; (d) be drawn on an FDIC insured financial institution reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that both (x) has an office in the greater Boston metropolitan area that will accept presentation of, and pay against, the Letter of Credit and (y) satisfies both the Minimum Rating Agency Threshold and the Minimum Capital Threshold (as those terms are defined below). The “Minimum Rating Agency Threshold” shall mean that the issuing bank has outstanding unsecured, uninsured and unguaranteed senior long-term indebtedness that is then rated (without regard to qualification of such rating by symbols such as “+” or “-” or numerical notation) “Baa” or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and/or “BBB” or better by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, or a comparable rating by a comparable national rating agency designated by Landlord in its discretion. The “Minimum Capital Threshold” shall mean that the issuing bank has combined capital, surplus and undivided profits of not less than $10,000,000,000. The Letter of Credit (and any renewals or replacements thereof) shall be for a term of not less than one (1) year. If the issuer of the Letter of Credit gives notice of its election not to renew such Letter of Credit for any additional period, Tenant shall be required to deliver a substitute Letter of Credit satisfying the conditions hereof at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the term of such Letter of Credit. If the issuer of the Letter of Credit fails to satisfy either or both of the Minimum Rating Agency Threshold or the Minimum Capital Threshold, Tenant shall be required to deliver a substitute letter of credit from another issuer reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord and that satisfies both the Minimum Rating Agency Threshold and the Minimum Capital Threshold not later than ten (10) business days after Landlord notifies Tenant of such failure. Tenant agrees that it shall from time to time, as necessary, whether as a result of a draw on the Letter of Credit by Landlord pursuant to the terms hereof or as a result of the expiration of the Letter of Credit then in effect, renew or replace the original and any subsequent Letter of Credit so that a Letter of Credit, in the amount required hereunder, is in effect until a date which is at least thirty (30) days after the Expiration Date. If Tenant fails to furnish such renewal or replacement at least thirty (30) days prior to the stated expiration date of the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord, Landlord may draw upon such Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof (and such proceeds need not be segregated) as a Security Deposit pursuant to the terms of this Article 7. Any renewal or replacement of the original or any subsequent Letter of Credit shall meet the requirements for the original Letter of Credit as set forth above, except that such replacement or renewal shall be issued by a national bank reasonably satisfactory to Landlord at the time of the issuance thereof.
7.2 Application of Proceeds of Letter of Credit. Upon an Event of Default, or if any proceeding shall be instituted by or against Tenant pursuant to any of the provisions of any
25
Act of Congress or State law relating to bankruptcy, reorganizations, arrangements, compositions or other relief from creditors (and, in the case of any proceeding instituted against it, if Tenant shall fail to have such proceedings dismissed within thirty (30) days) or if Tenant is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent as a result of any such proceeding, Landlord at its sole option may draw down all or a part of the Letter of Credit. The balance of any Letter of Credit cash proceeds shall be held in accordance with Section 7.4 below. Should the entire Letter of Credit, or any portion thereof, be drawn down by Landlord, Tenant shall, upon the written demand of Landlord, deliver a replacement Letter of Credit in the amount drawn, and Tenant’s failure to do so within ten (10) days after receipt of such written demand shall constitute an additional Event of Default hereunder. The application of all or any part of the cash proceeds of the Letter of Credit to any obligation or default of Tenant under this Lease shall not deprive Landlord of any other rights or remedies Landlord may have nor shall such application by Landlord constitute a waiver by Landlord.
7.3 Transfer of Letter of Credit. In the event that Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises, Tenant shall upon notice from and at no cost to Landlord, deliver to Landlord an amendment to the Letter of Credit or a replacement Letter of Credit naming Landlord’s successor as the beneficiary thereof. If Tenant fails to deliver such amendment or replacement within ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to draw down the entire amount of the Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof in accordance with Section 7.4 below.
7.4 Cash Proceeds of Letter of Credit. Landlord shall hold the Cash Security Deposit and/or the balance of proceeds remaining after a draw on the Letter of Credit (each hereinafter referred to as the “Security Deposit”) as security for Tenant’s performance of all its Lease obligations. After an Event of Default, Landlord may apply the Security Deposit, or any part thereof, to Landlord’s damages without prejudice to any other Landlord remedy. Landlord has no obligation to pay interest on the Security Deposit and may co-mingle the Security Deposit with Landlord’s funds. If Landlord conveys its interest under this Lease, the Security Deposit, or any part not applied previously, may be turned over to the grantee in which case Tenant shall look solely to the grantee for the proper application and return of the Security Deposit.
7.5 Return of Security Deposit or Letter of Credit. Provided that Tenant is not then in default under this Lease, the Security Deposit and/or Letter of Credit or the remaining proceeds therefrom, as applicable, shall (less any portion thereof which may have been utilized by Landlord to cure any default or applied to any actual damage suffered by Landlord) be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the latest to occur of: (i) the end of the Term, (ii) the delivery by Tenant to Landlord of the Premises free and clear of all parties claiming under Tenant and in compliance with Section 21 of the Lease, and (iii) delivery to Landlord of an acceptable Surrender Report, as defined in Section 21 of the Lease.

a.On the conditions (the “Reduction Conditions”) that as of the Effective Reduction Date, as hereinafter defined, (x) Tenant is then in full compliance with its obligations under the Lease and not in default under the Lease and (y) there has not been an Event of Default
26
during the twelve-month period immediately preceding the Effective Reduction Date, as it may delayed, as hereinafter set forth (“Prior Default Condition”), then the amount of the Cash Security Deposit/Letter of Credit may be reduced in accordance with the below-listed schedule:
Effective Reduction Date New Reduced Security Deposit Amount
Second (2nd) anniversary of
Commencement Date: $694,025.01
(2) The reduction in the Security Deposit shall be accomplished as follows: (a) for a Cash Security Deposit, Tenant shall request such reduction in a written notice to Landlord (the “Reduction Notice”), and if Landlord, in good faith, determines that the Reduction Conditions have been met, Landlord shall, within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s receipt of such Reduction Notice, refund to Tenant a portion of the Cash Security Deposit which Landlord is then holding so that Landlord will be holding the reduced amount, as set forth above, and (b) for a Security Deposit in the form of a Letter of Credit, Tenant shall give a Reduction Notice to Landlord, and if Landlord, in good faith, determines that the Reduction Conditions have been met, Landlord shall, within five (5) business days of its receipt of such Reduction Notice, so notify Tenant, whereupon Tenant shall either deliver to Landlord either: (i) a Substitute Letter of Credit in the applicable reduced amount, in form satisfying the requirements of this Section 7, or (ii) an amendment to the existing Letter of Credit, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord, reducing the amount of the existing Letter of Credit to the applicable reduced amount. If Tenant delivers to Landlord a Substitute Letter of Credit satisfying the foregoing requirements, as aforesaid, then Landlord shall exchange the existing Letter of Credit which Landlord is then holding for such Substitute Letter of Credit within ten (10) business days after Landlord receives such Substitute Letter of Credit to Landlord. If Landlord declines to reduce the Security Deposit based upon the fact that any of the Reduction Conditions have not been satisfied, but Tenant subsequently satisfies the Reduction Conditions, then Tenant may submit a new Reduction Notice to Landlord for the reduction in the Security Deposit in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.6. In such event, the Prior Default Condition shall be determined based the 12 month period immediately preceding the delayed Effective Reduction Date.
(3) In no event shall the Cash Security Deposit/Letter of Credit ever be less than $694,025.01. The Security Deposit, as it may be reduced in accordance with the foregoing, shall continue to be held by Landlord throughout the Term of the Lease.

If such statement indicates that Tenant’s estimated payments for such year exceed the actual amount of such costs for such year, then Landlord shall credit the excess against the next due installment(s) of Additional Rent payable under this Section 9.6, except that if such difference is determined after the end of the Term, Landlord shall refund such difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such determination to the extent that such difference exceeds any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord.

Landlord reserves the right to prescribe the weight and position of all safes, heavy machinery, heavy equipment, freight, bulky matter or fixtures (collectively, “Heavy Equipment”), which shall be placed so as to distribute the weight. Heavy Equipment shall be placed and maintained by Tenant at Tenant’s expense in settings sufficient in Landlord’s reasonable judgment to absorb and prevent vibration, noise and annoyance.

Any efforts by Tenant to respond or react to any Material Service Interruption, including, without limitation, any activities by Tenant to remove its personal property from the affected areas of the Premises, shall not constitute a use that precludes abatement pursuant to this Section 10.7(a). The Abatement Service Interruption Cure Period shall be extended by reason of any delays in Landlord’s ability to cure the Service Interruption in question caused by Landlord’s Force Majeure, provided however, that in no event shall the Abatement Service Interruption Cure Period with respect to any Service Interruption be longer than ten (10) consecutive business days after Landlord receives the applicable Service Interruption Notice.
(b) Tenant’s Termination Right.

31
contractors, and (iv) for so long as Tenant ceases to use the affected portion of the Premises during such Service Interruption, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving a written termination notice to Landlord after the expiration of the Termination Service Interruption Cure Period.

Landlord reserves the right to require that Tenant use Landlord’s preferred vendor(s) for any Alterations that involve roof penetrations, alarm tie-ins, sprinklers, fire alarm and other life safety equipment. Tenant shall not make any amendments or additions to plans and specifications approved by Landlord without Landlord’s prior written consent. Landlord’s approval of non-structural Alterations shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole discretion (a) to any Alteration to or affecting the fixed lab benches, fume hoods, roof and/or building systems, (b) with respect to matters of aesthetics relating to Alterations to or affecting the exterior of the Building, and (c) to any Alteration affecting the Building structure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Tenant shall have the right, without obtaining Landlord’s consent to make Permitted Alterations, as hereinafter defined, provided that: (i) Tenant gives Landlord at least ten (10) business days’ prior written notice of any Permitted Alteration, (ii) Tenant submit to Landlord, together with such notice, plans and specifications for such Permitted Alteration if Tenant utilizes plans and specifications for such Permitted Alteration, and otherwise Tenant submits to Landlord, together with such notice, a reasonably detailed description of such Permitted Alteration; and (iii) such Permitted Alteration does not affect any of the Building systems or the ceiling of the Premises. A “Permitted Alteration” shall be defined as: (x) cosmetic alterations within the Premises which are not visible from the exterior of the Premises, and (y) interior, non-structural Alterations costing not more than $250,000.00 in each instances. Tenant shall provide
32
Landlord with reproducible record drawings (in CAD format) of all Alterations (excluding decorative or cosmetic Alterations) within sixty (60) days after completion thereof.
11.2 Landlord Approval of Alterations. Tenant shall be responsible for all elements of the design of Tenant’s plans (including, without limitation, compliance with Legal Requirements, functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the Premises and the placement of Tenant’s furniture, appliances and equipment), and Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for such design. Landlord shall have no liability or responsibility for any claim, injury or damage alleged to have been caused by the particular materials (whether building standard or non-building standard), appliances or equipment selected by Tenant in connection with any work performed by or on behalf of Tenant. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, all Alterations shall be done at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and at such times and in such manner as Landlord may from time to time reasonably designate. In seeking Landlord’s approval, Tenant shall provide Landlord, at least ten (10) business days in advance of any proposed construction, with plans, specifications, bid proposals, certified stamped engineering drawings and calculations by Tenant’s engineer of record or architect of record, (including connections to the Building’s structural system, modifications to the Building’s envelope, non-structural penetrations in slabs or walls, and modifications or tie-ins to life safety systems), work contracts, requests for laydown areas and such other information concerning the nature and cost of the Alterations as Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord shall respond to Tenant’s request for approval of Tenant’s plans and specifications for any Alteration on or before the date ten (10) business days after Landlord’s receipt of such plans and specifications and all other documentation required, pursuant to the provisions of the Lease, to be submitted to Tenant to Landlord in connection with such Alteration (“Landlord Response Period”), and if Landlord shall disapprove any aspect thereof, it shall provide a reasonably detailed explanation of the reasons for such disapproval. If Landlord shall fail to respond to Tenant’s request for approval of such plans and specifications within the Landlord Response Period, and such failure shall continue for five (5) business days after Landlord’s receipt of a Reminder Notice (as defined below), then Landlord’s consent to such plans and specifications shall be deemed given. For purposes hereof, a “Reminder Notice” shall be a notice from Tenant to Landlord that states in bold faced capital letters at the top of the first page thereof the following: “LANDLORD’S FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER RECEIPT OF THIS REQUEST SHALL CONSTITUTE LANDLORD’S APPROVAL OF THE PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR TENANT’S WORK SUBMITTED TO LANDLORD FOR ITS APPROVAL ON __________, 20__.”
11.3 Removal of Alterations by Tenant. Subject to the provisions of this Section 11.3), then Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant at least thirty (30) days prior to the Expiration Date, to require Tenant to remove any Required Removables, as hereinafter defined, and to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to the installation of such Required Removables. Upon Tenant’s written request at the time that Tenant requests Landlord’s approval of any Alteration or gives Landlord written notice of any Permitted Alteration, as the case may be, Landlord shall, at the time that Landlord approves such Alteration or within five (5) business days after Landlord receives written notice from Tenant of such Permitted Alteration, as the case may be, give written notice to Tenant notifying Tenant as
33
to whether Landlord elects that Tenant remove any Required Removable which is included as part of such Alteration or Permitted Alteration, as the case may be. “Required Removables” shall be defined as: (a) any cable installed by or for the benefit of Tenant, and (b) any Alterations that, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, are of a nature that would require removal and repair costs that are materially in excess of the removal and repair costs associated with standard office/laboratory improvements. Required Removables shall include, without limitation, internal stairways, raised floors, personal restrooms and showers, vaults, rolling file systems, structural alterations and modifications, and any items set forth on Exhibit 13, but shall not include any portion of Landlord’s Work which is shown on the Preliminary Space Plan, unless such item is set forth on Exhibit 13.
11.4 After-Hours. Landlord and Tenant recognize that to the extent Tenant elects to perform some or all of the Alterations during times other than normal construction hours (i.e., Monday-Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., excluding holidays), Landlord may need to make arrangements to have supervisory personnel on site. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows: Tenant shall give Landlord at least two (2) business days’ prior written notice of any time outside of normal construction hours when Tenant intends to perform any Alterations (the “After-Hours Work”). Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the cost of Landlord’s supervisory personnel overseeing the After-Hours Work. In addition, if construction during normal construction hours unreasonably disturbs other tenants of the Building, in Landlord’s sole discretion, Landlord may require Tenant to stop the performance of Alterations during normal construction hours and to perform the same after hours, subject to the foregoing requirement to pay for the cost of Landlord’s supervisory personnel. Landlord hereby agrees that the rates charged to Tenant for Landlord’s supervisory personnel shall not exceed the rates charged to other tenants of the Building for the services of Landlord’s supervisory personnel.
11.5 Harmonious Relations. Tenant agrees that it will not use any contractors and/or materials if their use will create any difficulty, whether in the nature of a labor dispute or otherwise, with other contractors and/or labor engaged by Tenant or Landlord or others in the construction, maintenance and/or operation of the Building, the Property or any part thereof. In the event of any such difficulty, upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall cause all contractors, mechanics or laborers causing such difficulty to leave the Property immediately.
11.6 Liens. No Alterations shall be undertaken by Tenant until (i) Tenant has made provision for written waiver of liens from all contractors for such Alteration and taken other appropriate protective measures approved and/or required by Landlord; and (ii) Tenant has procured appropriate surety payment and performance bonds which shall name Landlord as an additional obligee and has filed lien bond(s) (in jurisdictions where available) on behalf of such contractors. Any mechanic’s lien filed against the Premises or the Building for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to, Tenant shall be discharged by Tenant within ten (10) business days thereafter, at Tenant’s expense by filing the bond required by law or otherwise.
34
11.7 General Requirements. Unless Landlord and Tenant otherwise agree in writing, Tenant shall (a) procure or cause others to procure on its behalf all necessary permits before undertaking any Alterations in the Premises (and provide copies thereof to Landlord); (b) perform all of such Alterations in a good and workmanlike manner, employing materials of good quality and in compliance with Rules and Regulations, all insurance requirements of this Lease, and Legal Requirements; and (c) defend, indemnify and hold the Landlord Parties harmless from and against any and all Claims occasioned by or growing out of such Alterations.
12. SIGNAGE
12.1 Restrictions. Tenant shall have the right to install Building standard signage identifying Tenant’s business at the entrance to the Premises, which signage shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

No signs may be put on or in any window or elsewhere if visible from the exterior of the Building.
12.2 Monument Signage. Subject to the provisions of this Section 12.2, for so long as: (x) there is no Event of Default of Tenant and (y) the Lease is in full force and effect (the “Monument Signage Condition”), then Tenant shall have the right to require Landlord to list, at Tenant’s cost (but subject to the Landlord’s Contribution), Tenant’s name (“Tenant’s Monument Signage”) on the existing exterior monument sign (the “Monument Sign”) serving the Property in the location shown on Exhibit 6-1. The parties hereby agree that the maintenance and removal of such Tenant’s Monument Signage (including, without limitation, the repair and cleaning of the existing monument façade upon removal of Tenant’s Monument Signage) shall be performed at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, except that Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of any change in Tenant’s Monument Signage during the initial Term of the Lease.

Any purported Transfer made without Landlord’s consent, if required hereunder, shall be void and confer no rights upon any third person, provided that if there is a Transfer, Landlord may collect rent from the transferee without waiving the prohibition against Transfers, accepting the transferee, or releasing Tenant from full performance under this Lease. In the event of any Transfer in violation of this Section 13, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after receipt of written notice from Tenant to Landlord of any Transfer, or within one (1) year after Landlord first learns of the Transfer if no notice is given. No Transfer shall relieve Tenant of its primary obligation as party Tenant hereunder, nor shall it reduce or increase Landlord’s obligations under this Lease.
13.2 Landlord’s Recapture Right

Landlord shall have the Recapture Period, as hereinafter defined, within which to respond to a Recapture Notice. The “Recapture Period” shall be: (i) thirty (30) days from Landlord’s receipt of the Recapture Notice with respect to any Recapture Premises, the size of which is less than 10,000 rentable square feet, and (ii) forty-five (45) days from Landlord’s receipt of the Recapture Notice with respect to any Recapture Premises, the size of which is 10,000 rentable square feet or more.
13.3 Standard of Consent to Transfer. If Landlord does not timely give written notice to Tenant accepting a Recapture Offer or declines to accept the same, then Landlord agrees that, subject to the provisions of this Section 13, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to a Transfer on the terms contained in the Recapture Notice to an entity which will use the Premises for the Permitted Uses and, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion: (a) has a tangible net worth and other financial indicators sufficient to meet the Transferee’s obligations under the Transfer instrument in question; (b) has a business reputation compatible with the operation of a first-class combination laboratory, research,
36
development and office building; and (c) the intended use of such entity does not violate any restrictive use provisions then in effect with respect to space in the Building.

40
such notice has been received by Landlord without Landlord having commenced to take all reasonable and practicable means to cure or correct such condition; and pending such cure or correction by Landlord, Tenant shall take all reasonably prudent temporary measures and safeguards to prevent any injury, loss or damage to persons or property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any of the Landlord Parties be liable for any loss which is covered by insurance policies actually carried or required to be so carried by this Lease; nor shall any of the Landlord Parties be liable for any such damage caused by other tenants or persons in the Building or caused by operations in construction of any private, public, or quasi-public work; nor shall any of the Landlord Parties be liable for any latent defect in the Premises or in the Building.

Landlord and Tenant each agrees to cause appropriate clauses to be included in its Property Insurance policies necessary to implement the foregoing provisions.
14.6 Tenant’s Acts--Effect on Insurance. Tenant shall not knowingly do or permit any Tenant Party to do any act or thing upon the Premises or elsewhere in the Building which will invalidate or be in conflict with any insurance policies covering the Building and the fixtures and property therein; and shall not do, or permit to be done, any act or thing upon the Premises which shall knowingly subject Landlord to any liability or responsibility for injury to any person or persons or to property by reason of any business or operation being carried on upon said Premises or for any other reason. If by reason of the failure of Tenant to comply with the provisions hereof the insurance rate applicable to any policy of insurance shall at any time thereafter be higher than it otherwise would be, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for that part of any insurance premiums which shall have been charged because of such failure by Tenant, together with interest at the Default Rate until paid in full, within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice therefor. In addition, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any increase in insurance premium arising as a result of Tenant’s use and/or storage of any Hazardous Materials in the Premises.
14.7 Landlord’s Insurance.

41
Improvements and improvements made by other tenants or occupants, insurance against loss or damage caused by any peril covered under fire, extended coverage and all risk insurance with coverage against vandalism, malicious mischief and such other insurable hazards and contingencies as are from time to time normally insured against by owners of similar first class offices/research/laboratory buildings/campuses in the Market Area, as defined in Section 1.2(b), or which are required by Landlord’s mortgagee, in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost thereof above foundation walls (“Landlord Property Insurance”), and (iii) rent interruption insurance covering at least twelve (12) months. Any and all such insurance: (x) may be maintained under a blanket policy affecting other properties of Landlord and/or its affiliated business organizations, and (y) may be written with commercially reasonable deductibles as determined by Landlord. The costs incurred by Landlord related to such insurance shall be included in Operating Costs. Tenant Property Insurance and Landlord Property Insurance are referred to collectively herein as “Property Insurance”.
15. CASUALTY; TAKING
15.1 Damage. If the Premises (or access thereto) are damaged in whole or part because of fire or other casualty (“Casualty”), or if the Premises (or access thereto) are subject to a taking in connection with the exercise of any power of eminent domain, condemnation, or purchase under threat or in lieu thereof (any of the foregoing, a “Taking”), then unless this Lease is terminated in accordance with Section 15.2 below, Landlord shall restore the Building and/or the Premises to substantially the same condition as existed immediately following completion of Landlord’s Work, or in the event of a partial Taking which affects the Building and the Premises, restore the remainder of the Building and the Premises not so Taken to substantially the same condition as is reasonably feasible. If, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, any element of the Tenant-Insured Improvements can more effectively be restored as an integral part of Landlord’s restoration of the Building or the Premises, such restoration shall also be made by Landlord, but at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Subject to rights of Mortgagees, Tenant Delays, Legal Requirements then in existence and to delays for adjustment of insurance proceeds or Taking awards, as the case may be, and instances of Force Majeure, Landlord shall substantially complete such restoration within one (1) year after Landlord’s receipt of all required permits therefor with respect to substantial reconstruction of at least 50% of the Building, or, within one hundred eighty (180) days after Landlord’s receipt of all required permits therefor in the case of restoration of less than 50% of the Building. Upon substantial completion of such restoration by Landlord, Tenant shall use diligent efforts to complete restoration of the Premises (to the extent not the Landlord’s responsibility under this Lease) to substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to such Casualty or Taking, as the case may be, as soon as reasonably possible. Tenant agrees to cooperate with Landlord in such manner as Landlord may reasonably request to assist Landlord in collecting insurance proceeds due in connection with any Casualty which affects the Premises or the Building. In no event shall Landlord be required to expend more than the Net (hereinafter defined) insurance proceeds Landlord receives for damage to the Premises and/or the Building or the Net Taking award attributable to the Premises and/or the Building. “Net” means the insurance proceeds or Taking award actually paid to Landlord (and not paid over to a Mortgagee) less all costs and expenses, including adjusters and attorney’s fees, of obtaining the same. Any costs incurred by Landlord as a result of a Casualty which are not
42
covered by Landlord’s property insurance as the result of any commercially reasonable deductible carried by Landlord under Landlord’s property insurance policy shall be included in Operating Costs for the Operating Year in which such Casualty occurs. Tenant agrees that, as of the Execution Date of the Lease, $10,000.00 is a commercially reasonable deductible under Landlord’s property insurance policy. Except as Landlord may elect pursuant to this Section 15.1, under no circumstances shall Landlord be required to repair any damage to, or make any repairs to or replacements of, any Tenant-Insured Improvements.
15.2 Termination Rights.
(a) Landlord’s Termination Rights. Landlord may terminate this Lease upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to Tenant if:
(i) any material portion of the Building or any material means of access thereto is taken;
(ii) more than thirty-five percent (35%) of the Building is damaged by Casualty; or
(iii) if the estimated time to complete restoration exceeds one (1) year from the date on which Landlord receives all required permits for such restoration; or
(iv) the cost of repairing the damage caused by such Casualty is not covered by casualty insurance required to be carried by Landlord pursuant to this Lease, and such uninsured cost exceeds ten percent (10%) of the then replacement cost of the Building.
(b) Tenant’s Termination Right. If Landlord is so required but fails to complete restoration of the Premises within the time frames and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 15.1 above, then Tenant may terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Landlord; provided, however, that if Landlord completes such restoration within thirty (30) days after receipt of any such termination notice, such termination notice shall be null and void and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. The remedies set forth in this Section 15.2(b) and in Section 15.2(c) below are Tenant’s sole and exclusive rights and remedies based upon Landlord’s failure to complete the restoration of the Premises as set forth herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 15 if the Casualty was caused by the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of any Tenant Party.
(c) Either Party May Terminate. In the case of any Casualty or Taking affecting the Premises and occurring during the last twelve (12) months of the Term, then (i) if such Casualty or Taking results in more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the floor area of the Premises being unsuitable for the Permitted Uses, or (ii) the damage to the Premises costs more than $250,000 to restore, then either Landlord or Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to the other. In addition, if Landlord’s Mortgagee does not release sufficient insurance proceeds to cover the cost of Landlord’s restoration obligations, then Landlord shall (i) notify Tenant thereof, and (ii) have the right to terminate this
43
Lease. If Landlord does not terminate this Lease pursuant to the previous sentence and such notice by Landlord does not include an agreement by Landlord to pay for the difference between the cost of such restoration and such released insurance proceeds, then Tenant may terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after such notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 15, in no event may Tenant elect to terminate this Lease hereunder if the Casualty that would otherwise give rise to such right results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, its agents, contractors, or employees.
(d) Automatic Termination. In the case of a Taking of the entire Premises, then this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the date of possession by the Taking authority.
15.3 Rent Abatement. In the event of a Casualty affecting the Premises, there shall be an equitable adjustment of Base Rent, Operating Costs and Taxes based upon the degree to which Tenant’s ability to conduct its business in the Premises is impaired by reason of such Casualty from and after the date of a Casualty, and continuing until the following portions of the repair and restoration work to be performed by Landlord, as set forth above, are substantially completed: (i) any repair and restoration work to be performed by Landlord within the Premises, and (ii) repair and restoration work with respect to the Common Areas to the extent that damage to the Common Areas caused by such Casualty materially adversely affects Tenant’s use of, or access to, the Premises.
15.4 Taking for Temporary Use. If the Premises are Taken for temporary use, this Lease and Tenant’s obligations, including without limitation the payment of Rent, shall continue, provided that any award for a temporary Taken shall be Tenant’s property. For purposes hereof, a “Taking for temporary use” shall mean a Taking of six (6) months or less. If the Premises are Taken for a period of more than six (6) months, then the provisions of Sections 15.1, 15.2, 15.3 and 15.5 shall apply to such Taking.
15.5 Disposition of Awards. Except for any separate award for Tenant’s movable trade fixtures, relocation expenses, and unamortized leasehold improvements paid for by Tenant (provided that the same may not reduce Landlord’s award), all Taking awards to Landlord or Tenant shall be Landlord’s property without Tenant’s participation, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord Tenant’s interest, if any, in such award. Tenant may pursue its own claim against the Taking authority.
16. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.
Each party (“Responding Party”) shall at any time and from time to time upon not less than ten (10) business days’ prior written notice from the other party (“Requesting Party”), execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Requesting Party a statement in writing certifying: (i) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), (ii) the dates to which Rent has been paid, (iii) stating, to the Responding Party’s knowledge, whether or not the Requesting Party is in default in performance of any covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition contained in this Lease and, if so, specifying each such default, and (iv) to the best of
44
the knowledge of the Responding Party (without the requirement to perform any investigations requiring the assistance of third parties), such other facts relating to the Lease as Requesting Party may reasonably request, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant hereto may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of the Building or of any interest of Landlord therein, any Mortgagee or prospective Mortgagee thereof, any lessor or prospective lessor thereof, any lessee or prospective lessee thereof, any prospective assignee of any mortgage thereof, or any prospective transferee of Tenant’s interest in the Lease or the Premises, or any portion thereof. Time is of the essence with respect to any such requested certificate, Tenant hereby acknowledging the importance of such certificates in mortgage financing arrangements, prospective sales and the like.
17. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
17.1 Prohibition. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, and except for standard office or janitorial supplies stored in proper containers, bring or permit to be brought or kept in or on the Premises or elsewhere in the Building or the Property any Hazardous Material (hereinafter defined) other than the types and quantities of Hazardous Materials (“Tenant’s Hazardous Materials”) which are listed on Tenant’s Hazardous Materials List, as hereinafter defined, provided that the same shall at all times be brought upon, kept or used in accordance with all applicable Environmental Laws (hereinafter defined) and Environmental Standards, as hereinafter defined, and provided that the same shall only be used in:

Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to inspect the Premises for compliance with the terms of this Section 17.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any of Tenant’s Hazardous Materials which Tenant does not properly handle, store or dispose of in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws (hereinafter defined) and Environmental Standards, Tenant shall, upon written notice from Landlord, no longer have the right to bring such material into the Building or the Property until Tenant has demonstrated, to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction, that Tenant has implemented programs to thereafter handle, store or dispose of such material in compliance with Environment Laws and Environmental Standards. In order to induce Landlord to waive its otherwise applicable requirement that Tenant maintain insurance in favor of Landlord against liability arising from the presence of radioactive materials in the Premises, and without limiting the foregoing, Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that at no time during the Term will Tenant bring upon, or permit to be brought upon, the Premises any radioactive materials whatsoever.
17.2 Environmental Laws. For purposes hereof, “Environmental Laws” shall mean all laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations of any local, state or federal governmental authority having jurisdiction concerning environmental, health and safety matters, including but not limited to any discharge by any of the Tenant Parties into the air, surface water, sewers, soil or groundwater of any Hazardous Material (hereinafter defined) whether within or outside the Premises, including, without limitation (a) the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, 33 U.S.C.

17.5 Testing. If any Mortgagee or governmental authority requires testing to determine whether there has been any release of Hazardous Materials and such testing is required as a result of the acts or omissions of any of the Tenant Parties, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand, as Additional Rent, for the reasonable costs thereof, together with interest at the Default Rate until paid in full.

Tenant shall promptly give written notice to Landlord of any warnings or violations relative to the above received from any federal, state or municipal agency or by any court of law and shall promptly cure the conditions causing any such violations. Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default of its obligations under the preceding sentence to promptly cure any condition causing any such violation in the event that, in lieu of such cure, Tenant shall contest the validity of such violation by appellate or other proceedings permitted under applicable law, provided that: (i) any such contest is made reasonably and in good faith, (ii) Tenant makes provisions, including, without limitation, posting bond(s) or giving other security, reasonably acceptable to Landlord to protect Landlord, the Building and the Property from any liability, costs, damages or expenses arising in connection with such alleged violation and failure to cure, (iii) Tenant shall agree to indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all liability, costs, damages, or expenses arising in connection with such
52
condition and/or violation, (iv) Tenant shall promptly cure any violation in the event that its appeal of such violation is overruled or rejected, and (v) Tenant’s decision to delay such cure shall not, in Landlord’s good faith determination, be likely to result in any actual or threatened bodily injury, property damage, or any civil or criminal liability to Landlord, any tenant or occupant of the Building or the Property, or any other person or entity.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall not be obligated to comply with any Legal Requirements requiring: (i) Alterations within the Premises resulting by reason of the failure of the Building or any component thereof to comply with Legal Requirements as of the Term Commencement Date; or (ii) structural Alterations to the Building or alterations to the Building’s mechanical, electrical, plumbing, life-safety or other systems unless the application of such Legal Requirements arises from: (a) the specific manner and nature of Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, as distinct from the Permitted Uses; (b) Alterations made by Tenant; or (c) a breach by Tenant of any provisions of this Lease; or (iii) Tenant to remove any Hazardous Material or substance installed or caused by a party other than Tenant Party or any invitee of Tenant; or (iv) the correction or cure of any defect or deficiency in Landlord’s construction whether within or beyond the Premises which Landlord is required to remedy pursuant to Landlord’s remedy, as set forth in Exhibit 4; or (v) the performance of any Alterations required by reason of the particular use or modification by another occupant in the Building.

54
arrangements, compositions or other relief from creditors, and, in the case of any proceeding instituted against it, if Tenant shall fail to have such proceedings dismissed within thirty (30) days or if Tenant is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent as a result of any such proceeding.
Wherever “Tenant “ is used in subsections (i), (j), (k), (l), (n) or (o) of this Section 20.1, it shall be deemed to include any parent entity of Tenant and any guarantor of any of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
20.2 Remedies. Upon an Event of Default, Landlord may, by notice to Tenant, elect to terminate this Lease; and thereupon (and without prejudice to any remedies which might otherwise be available for arrears of Rent or preceding breach of covenant or agreement and without prejudice to Tenant’s liability for damages as hereinafter stated), upon the giving of such notice, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified therein as though that were the Expiration Date. Upon such termination, Landlord shall have the right to utilize the Security Deposit or draw down the entire Letter of Credit, as applicable, and apply the proceeds thereof to its damages hereunder. Without being taken or deemed to be guilty of any manner of trespass or conversion, and without being liable to indictment, prosecution or damages therefor, Landlord may, by lawful process, enter into and upon the Premises (or any part thereof in the name of the whole); repossess the same, as of its former estate; and expel Tenant and those claiming under Tenant. The words “re-entry” and “re-enter” as used in this Lease are not restricted to their technical legal meanings.
20.3 Damages - Termination.
(a) Upon the termination of this Lease under the provisions of this Section 20, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Rent up to the time of such termination, shall continue to be liable for any preceding breach of covenant, and in addition, shall pay to Landlord as damages, at the election of Landlord, either:
(i) the amount (discounted to present value at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum) by which, at the time of the termination of this Lease (or at any time thereafter if Landlord shall have initially elected damages under Section 20.3(a)(ii) below), (x) the aggregate of Rent projected over the period commencing with such termination and ending on the Expiration Date, exceeds (y) the aggregate projected rental value of the Premises for such period, taking into account a reasonable time period during which the Premises shall be unoccupied, plus all Reletting Costs (hereinafter defined); or
(ii) or in the event of a relet, amounts equal to Rent which would have been payable by Tenant had this Lease not been so terminated, payable upon the due dates therefor specified herein following such termination and until the Expiration Date, provided, however, if Landlord shall re-let the Premises during such period, that Landlord shall credit Tenant with the net rents received by Landlord from such re-letting, such net rents to be determined by first deducting from the gross rents as and when received by Landlord from such re-letting the expenses incurred or paid by Landlord in terminating this Lease, as well as the expenses of re-letting, including altering and preparing the Premises for new tenants, brokers’ commissions, and all other similar and dissimilar expenses properly chargeable against the
55
Premises and the rental therefrom (collectively, “Reletting Costs”), it being understood that any such re-letting may be for a period equal to or shorter or longer than the remaining Term; and provided, further, that (x) in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of such net rents over the sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder and (y) in no event shall Tenant be entitled in any suit for the collection of damages pursuant to this Section 20.3(a)(ii) to a credit in respect of any net rents from a re-letting except to the extent that such net rents are actually received by Landlord prior to the commencement of such suit. If the Premises or any part thereof should be re-let in combination with other space, then proper apportionment on a square foot area basis shall be made of the rent received from such re-letting and of the expenses of re-letting.
(b) In calculating the amount due under Section 20.3(a)(i), above, there shall be included, in addition to the Base Rent, all other considerations agreed to be paid or performed by Tenant, including without limitation Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes, on the assumption that all such amounts and considerations would have increased at the rate of three percent (3%) per annum for the balance of the full term hereby granted.
(c) Suit or suits for the recovery of such damages, or any installments thereof, may be brought by Landlord from time to time at its election, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require Landlord to postpone suit until the date when the Term would have expired if it had not been terminated hereunder.
(d) Nothing herein contained shall be construed as limiting or precluding the recovery by Landlord against Tenant of any sums or damages to which, in addition to the damages particularly provided above, Landlord may lawfully be entitled by reason of any Event of Default hereunder.
(e) In lieu of any other damages or indemnity and in lieu of full recovery by Landlord of all sums payable under all the foregoing provisions of this Section 20.3, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, at any time after this Lease is terminated under any of the provisions herein contained or is otherwise terminated for breach of any obligation of Tenant and before such full recovery, elect to recover, and Tenant shall thereupon pay, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to the aggregate of (x) an amount equal to the lesser of (1) Rent accrued under this Lease in the twelve (12) months immediately prior to such termination, or (2) Rent payable during the remaining months of the Term if this Lease had not been terminated, plus (y) the amount of Rent accrued and unpaid at the time of termination, less (z) the amount of any recovery by Landlord under the foregoing provisions of this Section 20.3 up to the time of payment of such liquidated damages.
20.4 Landlord’s Self-Help; Fees and Expenses.
(a) If Tenant shall default in the performance of any covenant on Tenant’s part to be performed in this Lease contained, including without limitation the obligation to maintain the Premises in the required condition pursuant to Section 10.1 above, Landlord may, upon reasonable advance notice, except that no notice shall be required in an emergency, immediately, or at any time thereafter, perform the same for the account of Tenant. Tenant shall pay to
56
Landlord within ten (10) days of demand therefor any reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest at the Default Rate until paid in full.
(b) In the event that Landlord and Tenant are involved in any litigation regarding the performance of any of their obligations under this Lease, the unsuccessful party by final non-appealable order, decree or judgment in such litigation by a court of competent jurisdiction shall reimburse the successful party for all reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by such successful party in connection with obtaining such final un-appealable order, decree or judgment.
(c) In circumstances where there is no litigation involving Landlord and Tenant, Tenant shall pay all of Landlord’s costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in enforcing any obligation of Tenant under this Lease that Tenant failed to perform after lapse of any applicable notice and cure period. If, Landlord, or any Landlord Party, is made party to any litigation pending by or against any of the Tenant Parties and it is ultimately finally determined or agreed to by Tenant that Landlord or such Landlord Party, was not at fault in connection with the matter which is the basis of such litigation, then Tenant shall pay all of reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord or such Landlord Party in connection with such litigation.
20.5 Waiver of Redemption, Statutory Notice and Grace Periods. Tenant does hereby waive and surrender all rights and privileges which it might have under or by reason of any present or future Legal Requirements to redeem the Premises or to have a continuance of this Lease for the Term hereby demised after being dispossessed or ejected therefrom by process of law or under the terms of this Lease or after the termination of this Lease as herein provided. Except to the extent prohibited by Legal Requirements, any statutory notice and grace periods provided to Tenant by law are hereby expressly waived by Tenant.
20.6 Landlord’s Remedies Not Exclusive. The specified remedies to which Landlord may resort hereunder are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any remedies or means of redress to which Landlord may at any time be lawfully entitled, and Landlord may invoke any remedy (including the remedy of specific performance) allowed at law or in equity as if specific remedies were not herein provided for.
20.7 No Waiver. Landlord’s failure to seek redress for violation, or to insist upon the strict performance, of any covenant or condition of this Lease, or any of the Rules and Regulations promulgated hereunder, shall not prevent a subsequent act, which would have originally constituted a violation, from having all the force and effect of an original violation. The receipt by Landlord of Rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach. The failure of Landlord to enforce any of such Rules and Regulations against Tenant and/or any other tenant in the Building shall not be deemed a waiver of any such Rules and Regulations. No provisions of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by either party unless such waiver be in writing signed by such party. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the stipulated Rent, nor shall any endorsement or
57
statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.
20.8 Restrictions on Tenant’s Rights. During the continuation of any Event of Default, (a) Landlord shall not be obligated to provide Tenant with any notice pursuant to Sections 2.3 and 2.4 above; and (b) Tenant shall not have the right to make, nor to request Landlord’s consent or approval with respect to, any Alterations or Transfers.
20.9 Landlord Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, Landlord shall in no event be in default in the performance of any of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease unless Landlord shall have failed to perform such obligations within thirty (30) days (or such additional time as is reasonably required to correct any such default, provided Landlord commences cure within 30 days) after notice by Tenant to Landlord properly specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform any such obligation. Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for any reasonable third party out-of-pocket costs incurred by Tenant in connection with curing a Landlord default. Except as expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant shall not have the right to terminate or cancel this Lease or to withhold rent or to set-off or deduct any claim for damages against rent as a result of any default by Landlord or breach by Landlord of its covenants or any warranties or promises hereunder. In addition, Tenant shall not assert any right to deduct the cost of repairs or any monetary claim against Landlord from rent thereafter due and payable under this Lease.

Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to deliver the Surrender Plan and any report by Landlord’s environmental consultant with respect to the surrender of the Premises to third parties. Such third parties and the Landlord Parties shall be entitled to rely on the Surrender Report. If Tenant shall fail to prepare or submit a Surrender Plan approved by Landlord, or if Tenant shall fail to complete the approved Surrender Plan, or if such Surrender Plan, whether or not approved by Landlord, shall fail to adequately address the use of Hazardous Materials by any of the Tenant Parties in, on, at, under or about the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to take any such actions as Landlord may deem reasonable or appropriate to assure that the Premises and the Property are surrendered in
59
the condition required hereunder, the cost of which actions shall be reimbursed by Tenant as Additional Rent within ten (10) days of demand. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 21.1(b) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.
(c) No act or thing done by Landlord during the Term shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall be valid, unless in writing signed by Landlord. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, no employee of Landlord or of Landlord’s agents shall have any power to accept the keys of the Premises prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord or of Landlord’s agents shall not operate as a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, remove from the Premises, prior to the end of the Term, any item installed by or for Tenant and which, pursuant to Legal Requirements, must be removed therefrom before the Premises may be used by a subsequent tenant.
21.2 Abandoned Property. If Tenant fails to remove any property from the Building or the Premises which Tenant is obligated by the terms of this Lease to remove: (i) on or before the expiration of the Term of the Lease, or (ii) on or before the date five (5) business days after the earlier termination of the Term of the Lease, such property (the “Abandoned Property”) shall be conclusively deemed to have been abandoned, and may either be retained by Landlord as its property or sold or otherwise disposed of in such manner as Landlord may see fit. If any item of Abandoned Property shall be sold, Tenant hereby agrees that Landlord may receive and retain the proceeds of such sale and apply the same, at its option, to the expenses of the sale, the cost of moving and storage, any damages to which Landlord may be entitled under Section 20 hereof or pursuant to law, and to any arrears of Rent.
21.3 Holdover. If any of the Tenant Parties holds over (which term shall include, without limitation, the failure of Tenant or any Tenant Party to perform all of its obligations under Section 21.1 above) after the end of the Term, Tenant shall be deemed a tenant-at-sufferance subject to the provisions of this Lease. Whether or not Landlord has previously accepted payments of Rent from Tenant:
(i) Tenant shall pay Base Rent at the Hold Over Percentage, as hereinafter defined, of the highest rate of Base Rent payable during the Term,
(ii) Tenant shall continue to pay to Landlord all Additional Rent, and
(iii) in the event such hold over extends beyond thirty (30) days after the end of the Term, Tenant shall be liable for all damages, including without limitation lost business and consequential damages, incurred by Landlord as a result of such holding over, Tenant hereby acknowledging that Landlord may need the Premises after the end of the Term for other tenants and that the damages which Landlord may suffer as the result of Tenant’s holding over cannot be determined as of the Execution Date.
60
The “Hold Over Percentage” shall be 150% for the initial thirty (30) days of such holdover, and 200% for any period of hold over after the initial thirty (30) days. Nothing contained herein shall grant Tenant the right to holdover after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.
21.4 Warranties. Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any warranties in effect on the last day of the Term with respect to any fixtures and Alterations installed in the Premises. Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of any such warranties prior to the expiration of the Term (or, if the Lease is earlier terminated, within five (5) days thereafter).
22. MORTGAGEE RIGHTS
22.1 Subordination. Tenant’s rights and interests under this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to: (i) any ground lease and any other overlease, and (ii) the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust, or similar instrument covering the Premises, the Building and/or the Land and to all advances, modifications, renewals, replacements, and extensions thereof (each of the foregoing, a “Mortgage”), or (ii) if any Mortgagee elects, prior to the lien of any present or future Mortgage. Tenant further shall attorn to and recognize any successor landlord, whether through foreclosure or otherwise, as if the successor landlord were the originally named landlord. The provisions of this Section 22.1 shall be self-operative and no further instrument shall be required to effect such subordination or attornment; however, Tenant agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such instruments, confirming such subordination and attornment in such form as shall be requested by any such holder within fifteen (15) days of request therefor. Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to obtain an SNDA, as hereinafter defined, from the holder of the mortgage which affects the Property as of the Execution Date of the Lease. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall be a condition to Tenant’s obligation to subordinate the Lease to any future and from the holder of any future Mortgage that the holder of such future Mortgage enters into an SNDA with Tenant. An “SNDA” shall be defined as a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement on the standard form of SNDA then being used by the holder of the Mortgage in question, with such commercially reasonable modifications as may be requested by Tenant. Tenant shall pay any reasonable charges (including legal fees) required by such holder as a condition to entering into such SNDA.
22.2 Notices. Tenant shall give each Mortgagee, of which Tenant has notice, the same notices given to Landlord concurrently with the notice to Landlord, and each Mortgagee shall have a reasonable opportunity thereafter to cure a Landlord default, and Mortgagee’s curing of any of Landlord’s default shall be treated as performance by Landlord.
22.3 Mortgagee Consent. Tenant acknowledges that, where applicable, any consent or approval hereafter given by Landlord may be subject to the further consent or approval of a Mortgagee.
22.4 Mortgagee Liability. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that if any Mortgage shall be foreclosed, (a) the liability of the Mortgagee and its successors and assigns shall exist only so long as such Mortgagee or purchaser is the owner of the Premises, and such liability shall not continue or survive after further transfer of ownership; and (b) such Mortgagee and its successors or assigns shall not be (i) liable for the performance of Landlord’s covenants pursuant to the
61
provisions of this Lease which arise and accrue prior to such entity succeeding to the interest of Landlord under this Lease or acquiring such right to possession; (ii) subject to any offsets or defense which Tenant may have at any time against Landlord; (iii) bound by any base rent or other sum which Tenant may have paid previously for more than one (1) month; or (iv) liable for the performance of any covenant of Landlord under this Lease which is capable of performance only by the original Landlord, and (c) the SNDA between such Mortgagee and Tenant may provide other commercially reasonable limitations of the liability of such Mortgagee.
23. QUIET ENJOYMENT.
Landlord covenants that so long as Tenant keeps and performs each and every covenant, agreement, term, provision and condition herein contained on the part and on behalf of Tenant to be kept and performed within any applicable notice and cure periods, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises during the Term from and against the claims of all persons lawfully claiming by, through or under Landlord subject, nevertheless, to the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease, any matters of record or of which Tenant has knowledge and to any Mortgage to which this Lease is subject and subordinate, as hereinabove set forth.
24. NOTICES.
Any notice, consent, request, bill, demand or statement hereunder (each, a “Notice”) by either party to the other party shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when either delivered by hand or by nationally recognized overnight courier (in either case with evidence of delivery or refusal thereof) addressed as follows:

Such costs shall be deemed to be Additional Rent under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) the amount of legal fees which Tenant is required to reimburse Landlord with respect to any Transfer shall not exceed the Transfer Legal Fee Cap, as hereinafter defined, with respect to such Transfer, and (ii) with respect any request by Tenant to review and approve Tenant’s plans and specifications with respect to any Alteration, Tenant shall only be required to reimburse Landlord for third party consultants engaged by Landlord to review such plans and specifications as Landlord, in good faith determines is necessary (e.g., reviews by structure engineers, MEP engineers, etc.). The “Transfer Legal Fees Cap” shall be defined as $2,000, except that: (a) the Transfer Legal Fees Cap shall increase by $500 every fifth anniversary of the Base Rent Commencement Date, and (b) the Transfer Legal Fees Cap shall not apply to Tenant’s request for Landlord’s approval of any sub-sublease of any tier.
25.8 Survival. Without limiting any other obligation of Tenant which may survive the expiration or prior termination of the Term, all obligations on the part of Tenant and Landlord to indemnify, defend, or hold each other harmless, as set forth in this Lease shall survive the expiration or prior termination of the Term.
25.9 Limitations of Liability.
(a) Limitations on Landlord’s Liability. Tenant shall neither assert nor seek to enforce any claim against Landlord or any of the Landlord Parties, or the assets of any of the Landlord Parties, for breach of this Lease or otherwise, other than against Landlord’s interest in the Building, including insurance and condemnation proceeds (subject, however, to the rights of Landlord, to use such proceeds or awards for reconstruction prior to Tenant’s rights to reach any such proceeds), the proceeds from the sale or refinancing hereof, and in the uncollected rents, issues and profits of Landlord’s interest in the Building, and Tenant agrees to look solely to such interest for the satisfaction of any liability of Landlord under this Lease. This Section 25.9 shall not limit any right that Tenant might otherwise have to obtain injunctive relief against Landlord. Landlord and Tenant specifically agree that in no event shall any officer, director, trustee, employee or representative of Landlord or any of the other Landlord Parties ever be personally liable for any obligation under this Lease, nor shall Landlord or any of the other Landlord Parties be liable for consequential or incidental damages or for lost profits whatsoever in connection with this Lease.
(b) Limitations on Tenant’s Liability. In no event shall: (i) any officer, director, trustee, employee or representative of Tenant or any of the other Tenant Parties ever be personally liable for any obligation under this Lease, and (ii) Tenant or any of the other Tenant
64
Parties be liable for consequential or incidental damages or for lost profits whatsoever in connection with this Lease, except that nothing in this Section 25.9 shall limit or affect any liability or obligation which Tenant may have in the event of any breach by Tenant of its obligations under either Section 17 (Hazardous Materials) or Section 21.3 (Holdover).
25.10 Binding Effect. The covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease shall bind and benefit the successors and assigns of the parties hereto with the same effect as if mentioned in each instance where a party hereto is named or referred to, except that no violation of the provisions of Section 13 hereof shall operate to vest any rights in any successor or assignee of Tenant.
25.11 Landlord Obligations upon Transfer. Upon any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Building, Landlord shall be entirely freed and relieved from the performance and observance thereafter of all covenants and obligations hereunder on the part of Landlord to be performed and observed (except that Landlord shall be responsible for the return of the Security Deposit unless Landlord transfers the Security Deposit to such successor owner of the Building) it being understood and agreed in such event (and it shall be deemed and construed as a covenant running with the land) that the person succeeding to Landlord’s ownership of said reversionary interest shall thereupon and thereafter assume, and perform and observe, any and all of such covenants and obligations of Landlord, except as otherwise agreed in writing.
25.12 No Grant of Interest. Tenant shall not grant any interest whatsoever in any fixtures within the Premises or any item paid in whole or in part by Landlord’s Contribution or by Landlord.
25.13 Financial Information. Subject to the provisions of this Section 25.13, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s reasonable request (but in no event more than once in any twelve (12) month period, except in connection with a proposed sale or refinancing of the Building and/or in connection with any Event of Default by Tenant), Tenant’s most recently completed balance sheet and related statements of income, shareholder’s equity and cash flows statements (audited if available) reviewed by an independent certified public accountant and certified by an officer of Tenant as being true and correct in all material respects. Any such financial information may be relied upon by any actual or potential lessor, purchaser, or mortgagee of the Property or any portion thereof. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 25.13, this Section shall not apply so long as the holder of Tenant’s interest under the Lease is a publicly traded entity.
25.14 OFAC Certificate and Indemnity. Executive Order No. 13224 on Terrorist Financing, effective September 24, 2001 (the “Executive Order”), and the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Public Law 10756, the “Patriot Act”) prohibit certain property transfers. Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord (which representations and warranties shall be deemed to be continuing and re-made at all times during the Term) that neither Tenant nor any stockholder, manager, beneficiary, partner, or principal of Tenant is subject to the Executive Order, that none of them is listed on the United States Department of the Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) list of “Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked
65
Persons” as modified from time to time, and that none of them is otherwise subject to the provisions of the Executive Order or the Patriot Act. The most current list of “Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons” can be found at http://www.treas.gov/offices/eotffc/ofac/sdn/index.html. Tenant shall from time to time, within ten days after request by Landlord, deliver to Landlord any certification or other evidence requested from time to time by Landlord in its reasonable discretion, confirming Tenant’s compliance with these provisions. No assignment or subletting shall be effective unless and until the assignee or subtenant thereunder delivers to Landlord written confirmation of such party’s compliance with the provisions of this subsection, in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. If for any reason the representations and warranties set forth in this subsection, or any certificate or other evidence of compliance delivered to Landlord hereunder, is untrue in any respect when made or delivered, or thereafter becomes untrue in any respect, then an Event of Default hereunder shall be deemed to occur immediately, and there shall be no opportunity to cure. The provisions of this subsection shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease for the longest period permitted by law.
25.15 Confidentiality. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Lease are confidential. Disclosure of the terms hereof could adversely affect the ability of Landlord to negotiate other leases with respect to the Building and may impair Landlord’s relationship with other tenants of the Building. Tenant agrees that it and its partners, officers, directors, employees, brokers, and attorneys, if any, shall not disclose the terms and conditions of this Lease to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of Landlord which may be given or withheld by Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, except as required for financial disclosures or securities filings, as required by the order of any court or public body with authority over Tenant, or in connection with any litigation between Landlord and Tenant with respect this Lease. It is understood and agreed that damages alone would be an inadequate remedy for the breach of this provision by Tenant, and Landlord shall also have the right to seek specific performance of this provision and to seek injunctive relief to prevent its breach or continued breach.
25.16 Force Majeure. Other than for Tenant’s obligations under this Lease that can be performed by the payment of money (e.g., payment of Rent and maintenance of insurance), whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for action to be taken by either party hereto, such party shall not be liable or responsible for, and there shall be excluded from the computation of any such period of time, any delays due to strikes, riots, acts of God, shortages of labor or materials, war, acts of terrorism, governmental laws, regulations, or restrictions, or any other causes of any kind whatsoever which are beyond the control of such party (collectively “Force Majeure”). In no event shall financial inability of a party be deemed to be Force Majeure.

WORK LETTER
This Exhibit is attached to and made a part of the Lease (the “Lease”) by and between HCP/KING HAYDEN CAMPUS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and CONCERT PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), for space located at 65 Hayden Avenue, Lexington, Massachusetts. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given in the Lease.
I. LANDLORD’S WORK
1. Definitions. This Work Letter shall set forth the obligations of Landlord and Tenant with respect to the improvements to be performed in the Premises for Tenant’s use. For the purposes of this Lease, “Landlord’s Work” consists of: (i) Tenant Improvement Work described on Exhibit 4-1 (“Preliminary Space Plan”), (ii) the equipment list (“Equipment List”) attached hereto as Exhibit 4-2, and (iii) the responsibilities of Landlord as set forth in the Landlord/Tenant Responsibility Matrix attached hereto as Exhibit 4-3. The Preliminary Plan, Equipment List, and the Landlord/Tenant Responsibility Matrix are referred to herein collectively as the “Preliminary Plans”. In the event of any conflict between Exhibit 4-3 and either Exhibit 4-1 or Exhibit 4-2, Exhibit 4-3 shall control. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the Construction Documents have not yet been prepared and, therefore, it is impossible to determine the exact cost of the Landlord’s Work at this time. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord’s obligation to pay for the Cost of Landlord’s Work, as hereinafter defined shall be limited to an amount (“Landlord’s Contribution”) which shall not exceed $4,996,980.00 (i.e., $90.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises) (the “Maximum Amount”) and that Tenant shall be responsible for the Cost of Landlord’s Work to the extent that it exceeds the Maximum Amount. The “Cost of Landlord’s Work” shall be defined as all costs (“Hard Costs”) incurred by Landlord relating to the performance of the Landlord’s Work (including, without limitation, the cost of obtaining permits and any applicable state sales and use taxes) and all soft costs (“Soft Costs”) including, without limitation, architectural, engineering, and data/telecom cabling costs, incurred in connection with the Landlord’s Work (including, without limitation, the cost of preparing Construction Documents). Landlord will charge Tenant a construction management fee equal to four percent (4%) of the Cost of Landlord’s Work, which shall be paid from Landlord’s Contribution as the Cost of Landlord’s Work is incurred.
2. Design-Build Contractor; GMP. Landlord shall enter into a design-build contract (“Design-Build Contract”) for the Landlord’s Work with BW Kennedy (“Design-Build Contractor”). Landlord shall require the Design-Build Contractor to (a) name Tenant as an additional insured party on Design-Build Contractor’s liability insurance policies and (b) add Tenant to the indemnification protection that the Design-Build Contractor agrees to provide to Landlord in the Design-Build Contract. The Design-Build Contract shall be on the basis of a guaranteed maximum price (“GMP”). The GMP shall be determined based upon the sum of the following:
EXHIBIT 4, Page 1
• Design-Build Contractor’s Fee: 2.5% of the sum (“Cost of the Work”) of: (i) Direct Cost of the Work, and (ii) General Conditions Costs.
• General Conditions Costs: 5% of the Direct Cost of the Work
• Direct Cost of the Work: Determined by bids obtained from subcontractors in accordance with Section 5 below.
• Design-Builder’s Contingency: 5% of the Hard Cost of the Work.
3. Preparation of Construction Documents. Landlord shall engage R.E. Dineen to prepare the architectural plans and specifications describing Landlord’s Work. The Design-Build Contractor shall engage each Design-Build Subcontractor, as hereinafter defined, to prepare the engineering plans and specifications applicable to the portions of Landlord’s Work to be performed by such Design-Build Subcontractor. The foregoing architectural and engineering plans and specifications are referred to collectively herein as the “Construction Documents”.

Tenant shall have the right to review all bids within four (4) business days after receipt thereof. Landlord agrees to select the lowest bid unless Landlord has a reasonable basis for selecting a different bid.
If Tenant reasonably determines that the GMP is higher than is acceptable to Tenant, then Tenant shall have a one-time right to give request scope changes to Landlord’s Work prior to the commencement of Landlord’s Work, as herein set forth in this paragraph. In order to exercise such one-time right to request changes to Landlord’s Work in order to reduce the GMP, Tenant shall, on or before the date four (4) business days after Tenant receives Landlord’s notice to Tenant of the GMP, give written notice to Landlord specifying the changes in Landlord’s Work requested by Tenant. Such changes shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). Based upon the revised Construction Documents for Landlord’s Work, which are based upon the changes requested by Tenant, as approved by Landlord, as aforesaid, the Design Build Contractor shall revise the GMP for the construction of Landlord’s Work in accordance with this Section 5. Tenant shall have the right to review the revised GMP within four (4) business days after receipt thereof. Landlord agrees to select the lowest bid for any portion of Landlord’s Work unless Landlord has a reasonable basis for selecting a different bid.

7. Tenant’s Obligation to Pay. If the Cost of Landlord’s Work exceeds the Maximum Amount, Tenant shall pay to Landlord such Excess Costs as follows: (i) Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Share of Tenant Improvement Costs within thirty (30) days of Billing, as hereinafter defined, (ii) with respect to any Changes to Landlord’s Work, Tenant shall pay for the cost of such changes in accordance with Section 8 below, and (iii) with respect to any increases in the Cost of Landlord’s Work arising from Claims by the Contractor, Tenant shall pay for the cost of such Claims as set forth in Section 9 below. “Billing” shall be defined as any invoice from Landlord setting forth, reasonable detail, the amount due from Tenant, and shall include invoices from vendors and service providers, and applications for payment from the Design-Build Contractor for work completed through the date of Billing, as certified by the Design-Build Contractor.
