2.2 Term.

2.2.1 TO HAVE AND TO HOLD for a term (the “Term”) beginning on the Commencement Date and continuing for a period of three (3) years. The “Commencement Date” shall be the date upon which the Landlord’s Work (as defined in Section 3.2 below) shall be substantially completed except for minor punch list items. The Landlord’s Work is expected to be so completed no later than July 1, 2014.

2.2.2 If the Landlord’s Work is not so substantially completed on or prior to August 15, 2014 (other than due to delays caused by Tenant or fire or casualty) Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord given before such substantial completion.

If the Landlord’s Work is not so substantially completed by August 15, 2014 (other than due to delays caused by Tenant or by fire or casualty or other reasons beyond the Landlord’s reasonable control), then for each day subsequent to August 15, 2014 that such work is not so substantially completed, the Tenant shall have a special credit against the rent hereunder equal to one day of such rent.

2.2.3 Upon the completion of the work, the Landlord and the Tenant shall confirm the Commencement Date in writing.

2.3 Option to Extend.

2.3.1 Option Period. Provided that Tenant is not in default in the performance of its obligations under the Lease either at the time of exercise or at the date the Extended Term is to commence, Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term of this Lease for one (1) additional term of three (3) years (the “Extended Term”) on the same terms and conditions of this Lease, except that annual rent will be determined pursuant to paragraph 2.3.2.

2.3.2 Extended Term - Annual Rent. The Annual Rent for the Extended Term shall be determined as follows:

(a) The annual base rent during the Extended Term shall be equal to an amount representative of the then Fair Market Rent of the Premises as of the commencement of the Extended Term. “Fair Market Rent” shall be based on the rent generally payable in the general area of Norwood, Massachusetts for space approximately the same size, level of Landlord improvement and location as the Building for an equivalent term and for similar terms and conditions as contained in the Lease, taking into account all relevant factors.

(b) Within thirty (30) days after Tenant exercises its option to extend, Landlord will advise Tenant in writing (“Landlord’s Rental Notice”) of its determination of Fair Market Rent for the Premises. If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree on the Fair Market Rent for the Extended Term within fifteen (15) day of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Rental Notice, then within thirty (30) days after such failure to reach agreement, Tenant shall have the right to submit to Landlord a notice in writing (“Tenant’s Rental Determination”) stating what Tenant perceives to be the Fair Market Rent projected to the commencement date of the Extended Term. Landlord and Tenant shall again endeavor to agree on the Fair Market Rent. If within fifteen (15) days of Tenant’s submittal of Tenant’s Rental Determination, Landlord and Tenant cannot agree on the Fair Market Rent, they shall each appoint an appraiser who is a member of the Member Appraisal Institute (MAI) of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers or a real estate broker with at least five (5) years of experience leasing office space in the area in which the Building is located. In the event either party fails to so appoint an appraiser on or before the day specified in the preceding sentence, the person appointed as the appraiser may appoint an appraiser to represent the expiration of such period. The two appraisers appointed in either manner shall then proceed to appraise the Premises and determine its Fair Market Rent. In the event of their inability to reach a determination of such Fair Market Rent within thirty (30) days after their appointment, then they shall select a third appraisals. Landlord and Tenant agree to be bound by the determination of the Fair Market Rent of the Premises by the appraisers; provided, however, Landlord and Tenant agree that (a) if said determination exceeds the rental determination set forth in Landlord’s Rental Notice, the Rent during the Extended Term shall equal the amount set forth in Landlord’s Rental Notice, and (b) if said determination is less than Tenant’s Rent Determination, the Fixed Rent during the Extended Term shall equal Tenant’s Rent Determination. Each party shall be responsible for the fees and disbursements of its appraiser and attorneys, and the parties shall share equally the fees and disbursements of the third appraiser.

(c) In order to exercise the right to extend as provided in this Section 2.3, the Tenant must give the Landlord written notice nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Term. As used in this Lease, “Term” shall mean the original Term as may be extended hereunder.

(f) wages, salaries and other compensation paid to any employee of Landlord and/or Landlord’s managing agent other than employees of Landlord or Landlord’s managing agent to the extent engaged in security and maintenance of the Property;

If during any portion of any year for which Operating Costs are being computed (including calendar 2014), the Building was not at least 95% occupied by tenants or if Landlord was not supplying all tenants with the services being supplied hereunder, actual Operating Costs incurred shall be reasonably extrapolated by Landlord to the estimated Operating Costs that would have been incurred if the Building were so occupied by tenants or if such services were being supplied to all tenants, and such extrapolated amount shall, for purposes of this Section 4.2.2, be deemed to be the Operating Costs of such year.

Taxes shall mean all taxes, assessments, betterments and other charges and impositions (including, but not limited to, fire protection service fees and similar charges) levied, assessed or imposed at any time during the Term by any governmental authority upon or against the Property, or taxes in lieu thereof, and additional types of taxes to supplement real estate taxes due to legal limits imposed thereon (provided, however, that taxes shall not include any fees or penalties imposed as a result of Landlord’s failure to pay taxes in a timely manner). If, at any time during the Term of this Lease, any tax or excise on rents or other taxes, however described, are levied or assessed against Landlord with respect to the rent reserved hereunder, either wholly or partially in substitution for, or in addition to, real estate taxes assessed or levied on the Property, such tax or excise on rents shall be included in taxes; however, taxes shall not include franchise, estate, inheritance, succession, capital levy, transfer, income or excess profits taxes assessed on Landlord or affiliates, including beneficiaries. Taxes shall include any estimated payment made by Landlord on account of a fiscal tax period for which the actual and final amount of taxes for such period has not been determined by the governmental authority as of the date of any such estimated payment.

If Landlord receives an abatement or refund for Taxes in respect of any tax year where Tenant paid Tenant’s Percentage of such excess then Landlord shall remit to Tenant Tenant’s Percentage of such abatement or refund net of the costs of obtaining the same, but not in excess of the amount Tenant paid.

Provided Landlord is not prosecuting an abatement with respect thereto, Tenant may prosecute appropriate proceedings for abatement or reduction of any taxes with respect to which Tenant is required to make payments as hereinbefore provided, such proceedings to be conducted jointly with any other parties, including Landlord, who have contributed to the payment of such taxes and Tenant agrees to save Landlord harmless from all costs and expenses incurred on account of Tenant’s participation in such proceedings. Landlord, without obligating itself to incur any costs or expenses in connection with such proceedings shall cooperate with Tenant with respect to such proceedings so far as reasonably necessary. Any abatement or reduction effected for such proceedings shall accrue to the benefit of Tenant and Landlord and such other parties as their interests may appear according to their respective contributions to the taxes involved in any such proceedings.

If any installment of rent is paid more than fifteen (15) days after the date the same was due, and if on a prior occasion in the twelve (12) month period prior to the date such installment was due an installment of rent was paid more than fifteen (15) days after the same was due, then Tenant shall pay Landlord a late payment fee equal to five (5%) percent of the overdue payment.

4.4 Security Deposit. Upon signing this Lease, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a standby irrevocable letter of credit issued by a bank reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and in commercially reasonable form in an amount equal to $13,725 Said letter of credit shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all the terms of this Lease by said Tenant to be observed and performed. The security deposit shall not be mortgaged, assigned, transferred or encumbered by Tenant without the written consent of Landlord and any such act on the part of Tenant shall be without force and effect and shall not be binding upon Landlord. The letter of credit shall provide for a term of not less than ninety (90) days after the stated expiration date of this Lease, or if for a shorter term, then unless it is renewed or replaced at least 60 days prior to its maturing, Landlord may draw down the letter of credit in full and hold the same as a cash security deposit hereunder.

If the Fixed Rent or Additional Rent payable hereunder shall be overdue and unpaid or should Landlord make payments on behalf of the Tenant, or Tenant breach any of its obligations under this Lease, then Landlord may after all applicable grace/notice periods have expired without such rent being paid or such breach being cured to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord , at its option and without prejudice to any other remedy which Landlord may have on account thereof, draw down on such letter of credit in such amounts as may be necessary to compensate Landlord toward the payment of Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or other sums or loss or damage sustained by Landlord due to such breach on the part of Tenant; and Tenant shall forthwith upon demand restore said security to the original sum. Should Tenant comply with all of said terms and promptly pay all of the rentals as they fall due and all other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord, such letter of credit shall duly expire.

In the event of bankruptcy or other creditor-debtor proceedings against Tenant, all securities shall be deemed to be applied first to the payment of rent and other charges due Landlord for all periods prior to the filing of such proceedings.

4.5 Electricity Charge. In addition to the Annual Fixed Rent, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord $1.75 per square foot per year for electricity for lights and plugs in the Premises.

6.2.1 Assignment and Subletting.

ARTICLE 7.
Casualty, Eminent Domain

7.1 Termination. In the event that greater than fifty percent (50%) of the Building or the Lot shall be taken by any public authority or for any public use or destroyed by the action of any public authority (a “Taking”), then this Lease may be terminated by either Landlord or Tenant effective on the effective date of the Taking. In the event that the Premises shall be destroyed or damaged by fire or casualty (a “Casualty”) and, if Landlord’s architect, engineer or contractor shall determine that it will require in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of the Casualty to restore the Premises, this Lease may be terminated by either Landlord or Tenant by notice to the other within thirty (30) days after the casualty. In the case of a Taking, such election, which may be made notwithstanding the fact that Landlord’s entire interest may have been divested, shall be made by the giving of notice by Landlord or Tenant to the other within thirty (30) days after Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, shall receive notice of the Taking

7.2 Restoration. In the event of a Taking or a Casualty, if neither Landlord nor Tenant exercises the election to terminate provided in Section 7.1, this Lease shall continue in force and a just proportion of the Fixed Rent and other charges hereunder, according to the nature and extent of the damages sustained by the Premises, but not in excess of an equitable portion of the net proceeds of insurance recovered by Landlord under the rental insurance carried pursuant to Section 4.2.3, shall be abated until the Premises, or what may remain thereof, shall be put by Landlord in proper condition for use subject to zoning and building laws or ordinances then in existence, which, unless Landlord or Tenant has exercised its option to terminate pursuant to Section 7.1, Landlord covenants to do with reasonable diligence at Landlord’s expense. Landlord’s obligations with respect to restoration shall not require Landlord to expend more than the net proceeds of insurance recovered or damages awarded for such Casualty or Taking and made available for restoration by Landlord’s mortgagees. “Net proceeds of insurance recovered or damages awarded” refers to the gross amount of such insurance or damages less the reasonable expenses of Landlord in connection with the collection of the same, including, without limitation, fees and expenses for legal and appraisal services.

7.3 Award. Irrespective of the form in which recovery may be had by law, all rights to damages or compensation shall belong to Landlord in all cases. Tenant hereby grants to Landlord all of Tenant’s rights to such damages and compensation and covenants to deliver such further assignments thereof as Landlord may from time to time request.

ARTICLE 8.
Defaults

8.1 Events of Default. (a) If Tenant shall default in the performance of any of its obligations to pay the Fixed Rent or Additional Rent hereunder and if such default shall continue for ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord designating such default or if within thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant specifying any other default or defaults Tenant has not commenced diligently to correct the default or defaults so specified or has not thereafter diligently pursued such correction to completion, or (b) if any assignment of the Lease shall be made by Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or (c) if Tenant’s Leasehold interest shall be taken on execution, or (d) if a lien or other involuntary encumbrance is filed against Tenant’s Leasehold interest, and is not discharged within ten (10) days thereafter, or (e) if a petition is filed by Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant for liquidation, or for reorganization or an arrangement under any provision of any bankruptcy law or code as then in force and effect, or (f) if an involuntary petition under any of the provisions of any bankruptcy law or code is filed against Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant and such involuntary petition is not dismissed within sixty (60) days thereafter, then, and in any of such cases, Landlord and the agents and servants of Landlord may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in addition to and not in derogation of any remedies for any preceding breach of covenant, immediately or at any time thereafter without demand or notice and with or without process of law (forcibly, if necessary) enter into and upon the Premises or any part thereof in the name of the whole or mail a notice of termination addressed to Tenant, and repossess the same as of Landlord’s former estate and expel Tenant and those claiming through or under Tenant and remove its and their effects (forcibly, if necessary) without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass and without prejudice to any remedies which might otherwise be used for arrears of rent or prior breach of covenant, and upon such entry or mailing as aforesaid this Lease shall terminate, Tenant hereby waiving all statuary rights to the Premises (including without limitation rights of redemption, if any, to the extent such rights may be lawfully waived) and Landlord, without notice to Tenant, may store Tenant’s effects, and those of any person claiming through or under Tenant, at the expense and risk of Tenant, and, if Landlord so elects, may sell such effects at public auction or private sale and apply the net proceeds to the payment of all sums due to Landlord from Tenant, if any, and pay over the balance, if any, to Tenant.

8.2 Remedies. In the event that this Lease is terminated under any of the provisions contained in Section 8.1 or shall be otherwise terminated for breach of any obligation of Tenant, Tenant covenants to pay punctually to Landlord all the sums and to perform all the obligations which Tenant covenants in this Lease to pay and to perform in the same manner and to the same extent and at the same time as if this Lease had not been terminated. In calculating the amounts to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the preceding sentence Tenant shall be credited with the net proceeds of any rent obtained by Landlord by reletting the Premises, after deducting all Landlord’s reasonable expense in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, fees for legal services and expenses of preparing the Premises for such reletting (excluding the cost of any buildout incurred for any new tenant), it being agreed by Tenant that Landlord may (i) relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof, for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option be equal to or less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant such concessions and free rent as Landlord in its sole judgment considers advisable or necessary to relet the same and (ii) make such alterations, repairs and decorations in the Premises as Landlord in its sole judgment considers advisable or necessary to relet the same, and no action of Landlord in accordance with the foregoing or failure to relet or to collect rent under reletting shall operate or be construed to release or reduce Tenant’s liability as aforesaid. In lieu of the foregoing, Landlord may elect to recover, and Tenant shall pay forthwith to Landlord, as compensation, the excess of the total rent reserved for the residue of the Term over the rental value of the Premises for said residue of the Term discounted at the then discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. In calculating the rent reserved there shall be included, in addition to the Fixed Rent and Additional Rent, the value of all other considerations agreed to be paid or performed by Tenant for said residue. Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate damages.

8.3 Remedies Cumulative. Any and all rights and remedies which Landlord or Tenant may have under this Lease, and at law and in equity, shall be cumulative and shall not be deemed inconsistent with each other, and any two or more of all such rights and remedies may be exercised at the same time insofar as permitted by law.

8.4 Landlord’s Right to Cure Defaults. Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, cure, at any time, after written notice to Tenant as required by Section 8.1, any default by Tenant under this Lease; and whenever Landlord so elects, all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in curing a default shall be paid, as Additional Rent, by Tenant to Landlord on demand, together with lawful interest thereon from the date of payment by Landlord to the date of payment by Tenant.

8.5 Effect of Waivers of Default. Any consent or permission by either party hereunder to any act or omission which otherwise would be a breach of any covenant or condition herein, shall not in any way be held or construed (unless expressly so declared) to operate so as to impair the continuing obligation of any covenant or condition herein, or otherwise, except as to the specific instance, operate to permit similar acts or omissions.

8.6 No Waiver, Etc. The failure of either party hereunder to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon the strict performance of, any covenant or condition of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such violation nor prevent a subsequent act, which would have originally constituted a violation. The receipt by Landlord of rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed to have been a waiver of such breach by Landlord. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by either party hereunder to or of any breach of any agreement or duty shall be construed as a waiver or consent to or of any other breach of the same or any other agreement or duty.

8.7 No Accord and Satisfaction. No acceptance by Landlord of a lesser sum than the Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or any other charge then due shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest installment of such rent or charge due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent or other charge be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check of payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such installment or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.

ARTICLE 9.

The covenants and agreements contained in this Lease with respect to the rights, powers and benefits of a holder of a mortgage (particularly, without limitation thereby, the covenants and agreements contained in this Section 9.1) constitute a continuing offer to any person, corporation or other entity, which by accepting a mortgage subject to this Lease, assumes the obligations herein set forth with respect to such holder; such holder is hereby constituted a party of this Lease as an obligee hereunder to the same extent as though its name were written hereon as such; and such holder shall be entitled to enforce such provisions in its own name. Tenant agrees on request of Landlord to execute and deliver from time to time any agreement which may be necessary to implement the provisions of this Section 9.1.

9.2 Lease Superior or Subordinate to Mortgages. It is agreed that the rights and interest of Tenant under this Lease shall be (i) subject or subordinate to any present or future mortgage or mortgages and to any and all advances to be made thereunder, and to the interest of the holder thereof in the Premises or any property of which the Premises are a part if Landlord shall elect by notice to Tenant to subject or subordinate the rights and interest of Tenant under this Lease to such mortgage or (ii) prior to any present or future mortgage or mortgages, if Landlord shall elect, by notice to Tenant, to give the rights and interest of Tenant under this Lease priority to such mortgage; in the event of either of such elections and upon notification by Landlord to that effect, the rights and interest of Tenant under this Lease should be deemed to be subordinate to, or have priority over, as the case may be, said mortgage or mortgages, irrespective of the time of execution or time of recording of any such mortgage or mortgages (provided that, in the case of subordination of this Lease to any future mortgages, the holder thereof agrees (i) to abide by the terms and conditions of this Lease and (ii) not to disturb the possession of Tenant so long as Tenant is not in default hereunder). Tenant agrees it will, upon request of Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all instruments deemed by Landlord necessary or desirable to give effect to or notice of such subordination or priority. Any mortgage to which this Lease shall be subordinated may contain such terms, provisions and conditions as the holder deems usual or customary.

At the request of Tenant, Landlord shall obtain on Tenant’s behalf an agreement from any present holder of a mortgage on the Property that such holder, in exercising any of its rights under such mortgage, shall not disturb the possession or any other rights of Tenant under this Lease and that such mortgagee will accept Tenant as Tenant of the Premises under the terms and conditions of this Lease so long as Tenant performs its obligations hereunder and agrees to attorn to such mortgagee.

ARTICLE 10.
Miscellaneous Provisions

10.1 Notices from One Party to the Other. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and addressed, if to the Tenant, at the Original Notice Address of Tenant or such other address as Tenant shall have last designated by notice in writing to Landlord, if to Landlord, at the Original Notice Address of Landlord or such other address as Landlord shall have last designated by notice in writing to Tenant. Any notice shall be deemed duly given when mailed to such address postage prepaid, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or when delivered to such address by hand or by Federal Express or comparable overnight courier.

10.2 Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord agrees that upon Tenant’s paying the rent and performing and observing the agreements, conditions and other provisions on its part to be performed and observed, Tenant shall and may peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises during the Term hereof without any manner of hindrance or molestation from Landlord or anyone claiming under Landlord, subject, however, to the terms of this Lease.

10.3 Lease not to be Recorded. Tenant agrees that it will not record this Lease. Both parties shall, upon the request of either, execute and deliver a notice or short form of this Lease in such form, if any, as may be permitted by applicable statute.

10.4 Limitation of Landlord’s Liability. The term “Landlord” as used in this Lease so far as covenants or obligations to be performed by Landlord are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners at the time in question of the Property, and in the event of any transfer or transfers of title to said Property, the Landlord (and in case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be concurrently freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance of all liability as respects the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of the Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed, it being intended hereby that the covenants and obligations contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord, shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on the Landlord, its successors and assigns, only during and in respect of their respective successive periods of ownership of said Leasehold interest or fee, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing (1) Landlord shall not be released from its obligations under this Lease unless the transferee agrees in writing, for the benefit of the Tenant, to assume Landlord’s obligations under the Lease from and after the date of transfer; and (2) if Landlord assigns its interest in this Lease as additional security, this assignment shall not release Landlord from its obligations under this Lease. Tenant, its successors and assigns, shall not assert nor seek to enforce any claim for breach of this Lease against any of Landlord’s assets other than Landlord’s interest in the Property and in the rents, issues and profits thereof, and Tenant agrees to look solely to such interest for the satisfaction of any liability or claim against Landlord under this Lease, it being specifically agreed that in no event whatsoever shall Landlord (which term shall include, without limitation, any general or limited partner, trustees, beneficiaries, officers, directors, or stockholders of Landlord) ever be personally liable for any such liability. Landlord hereby covenants and represents that it is as of the date of this Lease the sole owner of the Building and the Property.

10.5 Acts of God. In any case where either party hereto is required to do any act, then delays caused by or resulting from a Force Majeure Event shall not be counted in determining the time during which work shall be completed, whether such time be designated by a fixed date, a fixed time or a “reasonable time”, and such time shall be deemed to be extended by the period of such delay; provided that the affected party uses commercially reasonable efforts to minimize such delay and the affected party’s negligence or misconduct did not contribute to the same. However, Force Majeure should not delay the payment of rent.

10.6 Landlord’s Default. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder unless it shall fail to perform such obligations and such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days or such additional time as is reasonably required to correct any such default after written notice has been given by Tenant to Landlord specifying the nature of Landlord’s alleged default.

10.6.1 Landlord’s Default - Tenant’s Remedy. If Tenant is prevented from using and does not use, all or part of the Premises as a result of Landlord’s default and, if the default continues for five consecutive business days after Landlord’s receipt of notice from Tenant of the alleged default, the Fixed Rent and Additional Rent payable under this Lease shall be abated or reduced from that 5 day period for such time that Tenant continued to be prevented from using, and does not use, the affected area of the Premises, in the proportion that the affected area bears to the total rentable area of the Premises.

10.7 After Hours and Holiday Heating and Air Conditioning. Heating and air conditioning can be provided to Tenant during evenings, weekends and holidays provided that the Landlord receives at least twenty four (24) hours prior written notice from the Tenant of the need for heat or air conditioning. The charge for such service is thirty five ($35.00) dollars per hour which amount is subject to increase as utility costs increase. Any charges for this service shall be due and payable on the first of the following month.

10.8 Applicable Law and Construction. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and, if any provisions of this Lease shall to any extent be invalid, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby. There are no oral or written agreements between Landlord and Tenant affecting this Lease. This Lease may be amended, and the provisions hereof may be waived or modified only by instruments in writing executed by Landlord and Tenant. The titles of the several Articles and Sections contained herein are for convenience only and shall not be considered in construing this Lease. Unless repugnant to the context, the words “Landlord” and “Tenant” appearing in this Lease shall be construed to mean those named above and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and those claiming through or under them respectively. If there be more than one tenant the obligations imposed by this Lease upon Tenant shall be joint and several.

10.9 Brokerage. Landlord and Tenant represent to each other that they have not dealt with any real estate brokers or sales representatives other than CB Richard Ellis/Whittier Partners (“Brokers”) in connection with this Lease. Landlord agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Tenant, and Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against all threatened or asserted claims, liabilities, costs or damages (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) which they may incur as a result of a breach of this representation. Landlord agrees to pay Broker commission(s) in accordance with a separate written agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereby have executed this Indenture of Lease in multiple copies, each to be considered an original hereof, as a sealed instrument on the day and year noted in Exhibit I as the Execution Date.
