4. | Right to Expand. |
a. Expansion in the 790 Building. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord leases and operates the first and second floors of the 790 Building as a Science Hotel (sm). If Landlord elects, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time after January 1, 2012, and prior to the expiration of the Base Term, to no longer operate the Science Hotel in all or any part of the first or second floor of the 790 Building, Tenant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to expand the Premises (the Expansion Right) to include any Available Space in the 790 Building upon the terms and conditions in this Section. For purposes of this Section 39(a), Available Space shall mean any space in the 790 Building being leased and operating as part of the Science Hotel by Landlord as of the date of this Fifth Amendment which is not then occupied by a tenant or which is occupied by an existing tenant whose lease is expiring within 6 months or less and such tenant does not wish to renew (whether or not such tenant has a right to renew) its occupancy of such space. If there is any Available Space in the 790 Building, Landlord shall, at such time as Landlord shall elect so long as Tenants rights hereunder are preserved, deliver to Tenant written notice (the Expansion Notice) of such Available Space, together with the terms and conditions on which Landlord is prepared to lease Tenant such Available Space and Landlords good faith estimate of the Market Rate (as defined below) for such Available Space. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the initial Base Rent for the Available Space shall be payable at 95% of the Market Rate. Base Rent shall thereafter be adjusted on each annual anniversary of the commencement date of the lease with respect to the Available Space by a percentage as determined by Landlord and agreed to by Tenant at the time the Market Rate is determined. As used herein, Market Rate shall mean the then market rental rate as determined pursuant to Section 41. Tenant shall have 15 business days following delivery of the Expansion Notice to deliver to Landlord written notification of Tenants exercise of the Expansion Right. If Tenant delivers such notice to Landlord in a timely manner, Tenant shall be entitled to lease such Available Space upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Expansion Notice and at 95% of Market Rate.
2
b. Amended Lease. Following the timely and proper exercise of the Expansion Right, the parties shall promptly enter into an amendment to this Lease evidencing the same. If: (i) Tenant fails to timely deliver notice accepting the terms of an Expansion Notice, or (ii) after the expiration of a period of 30 days from the date Tenant gives notice accepting Landlords offer to lease such Available Space, no lease amendment for the Available Space has been executed and Landlord tenders to Tenant an amendment to this Lease setting forth the terms for the rental of the Available Space consistent with those set forth in the Expansion Notice and otherwise consistent with the terms of the Lease and Tenant fails to execute such Lease amendment within 10 business days following such tender, then Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its right to lease such Available Space.
c. Exceptions. Notwithstanding the above, the Expansion Right shall, at Landlords option, not be in effect and may not be exercised by Tenant:
(i) during any period of time that Tenant is in Default under any provision of the Lease; or
(ii) if Tenant has been in Default under any provision of the Lease 3 or more times in the payment of Rent, whether or not the Defaults are cured, during the 12 month period prior to the date on which Tenant seeks to exercise the Expansion Right.
d. Termination. The Expansion Right shall, at Landlords option, terminate and be of no further force or effect even after Tenants due and timely exercise of the Expansion Right, if, after such exercise, but prior to the commencement date of the lease of such Available Space, (i) Tenant fails to timely cure any default by Tenant under the Lease for which Tenant has received notice; or (ii) Tenant has Defaulted 3 or more times in the payment of Rent during the period from the date of the exercise of the Expansion Right to the date of the commencement of the lease of the Available Space, whether or not such Defaults are cured.
e. Rights Personal. Expansion Rights are personal to Tenant and are not assignable without Landlords consent, which may be granted or withheld in Landlords sole discretion separate and apart from any consent by Landlord to an assignment of Tenants interest in the Lease, except that they may be assigned in connection with any Permitted Assignment of this Lease.
f. No Extensions. The period of time within which any Expansion Rights may be exercised shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenants inability to exercise the Expansion Rights.
5. | Right to Extend Term. Section 41 of the Lease is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following: |
41. Right to Extend Term. Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term of the Lease upon the following terms and conditions:
(a) Extension Right. Tenant shall have one (1) right (Extension Right) to extend the term of this Lease for five (5) years (an Extension Term) on the same terms and conditions as this Lease (other than Base Rent and the Work Letter) by giving Landlord written notice of its election to exercise the Extension Right at least nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Base Term of the Lease.
Upon the commencement of the Extension Term, Base Rent shall be payable at 95% of the Market Rate (as defined below). Base Rent shall thereafter be adjusted on each annual anniversary of the commencement date of the Extension Term by a percentage as determined by Landlord and agreed to by Tenant at the time the Market Rate is determined. As used herein, Market Rate shall mean the then market rental rate as determined pursuant to this Section 41(a). In addition, Landlord may impose a reasonably determined market rent for the parking rights provided hereunder.

On or before the date which is 150 days prior to the expiration of the Base Term of this Lease, Landlord shall notify Tenant, in writing, of Landlords determination of Market Rent and the rent escalations during such Extension Term. If, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice from Landlord, Tenant has not agreed with Landlords determination of the Market Rate and the rent escalations during such Extension Term after negotiating in good faith, Tenant may by written notice to Landlord not later than 120 days prior to the expiration of the Base Term of this Lease, elect arbitration as described in Section (b) below. If Tenant does not elect such arbitration, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived any right to extend the Term of the Lease and the Extension Right shall terminate.
(b) Arbitration.
(i) Within 10 days of Tenants notice to Landlord of its election to arbitrate Market Rate and escalations, each party shall deliver to the other a proposal containing the Market Rate and escalations that the submitting party believes to be correct (Extension Proposal). If either party fails to timely submit an Extension Proposal, the other partys submitted proposal shall determine the Base Rent and escalations for the Extension Term. If both parties submit Extension Proposals, then Landlord and Tenant shall meet within 7 days after delivery of the last Extension Proposal and make a good faith attempt to mutually appoint a single Arbitrator (as defined below) to determine the Market Rate and escalations. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon a single Arbitrator, then each shall, by written notice delivered to the other within 10 days after the meeting, select an Arbitrator. If either party fails to timely give notice of its selection for an Arbitrator, the other partys submitted proposal shall determine the Base Rent for the Extension Term. The 2 Arbitrators so appointed shall, within 5 business days after their appointment, appoint a third Arbitrator. If the 2 Arbitrators so selected cannot agree on the selection of the third Arbitrator within the time above specified, then either party, on behalf of both parties, may request such appointment of such third Arbitrator by application to any state court of general jurisdiction in the jurisdiction in which the Premises are located, upon 10 days prior written notice to the other party of such intent.
(ii) The decision of the Arbitrator(s) shall be made within 30 days after the appointment of a single Arbitrator or the third Arbitrator, as applicable. The decision of the single Arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties. The average of the two closest Arbitrators in a three Arbitrator panel shall be final and binding upon the parties. Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator appointed by or on behalf of such party and the fees and expenses of the third Arbitrator shall be borne equally by both parties. If the Market Rate and escalations are not determined by the first day of the Extension Term, then Tenant shall pay Landlord Base Rent in an amount equal to the Base Rent in effect immediately prior to the Extension Term and increased by the Rent Adjustment Percentage until such determination is made. After the determination of the Market Rate and escalations, the parties shall make any necessary adjustments to such payments made by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall then execute an amendment recognizing the Market Rate and escalations for the Extension Term.
(iii) An Arbitrator shall be any person appointed by or on behalf of either party or appointed pursuant to the provisions hereof and: (i) shall be (A) a member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers with not less than 10 years of experience in the appraisal of improved office and laboratory real estate in the greater Boston metropolitan area, or (B) a licensed commercial real estate broker with not less than 15 years experience representing landlords and/or tenants in the leasing of office and laboratory space in the greater Boston metropolitan area, (ii) devoting substantially all of their time to professional appraisal or brokerage work, as applicable, at the time of appointment and (iii) be in all respects impartial and disinterested.

(c) Rights Personal. The Extension Right is personal to Tenant is only assignable by Tenant pursuant to a Permitted Assignment. All other assignments of the Extension Right shall be subject to Landlords prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in Landlords sole discretion separate and apart from any consent by Landlord to an assignment of Tenants interest in the Lease. In addition to the foregoing, at Landlords option, Tenant shall not have the right to exercise the Extension Right if subleases (other than Permitted Assignments) affecting more than 50% of the 790 Premises are in effect at the time of such exercise and at the commencement of the Extension Term.
(d) Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything set forth above to the contrary, the Extension Right shall, at Landlords option, not be in effect and Tenant may not exercise any of the Extension Rights:
(i) during any period of time that Tenant is in Default under any provision of this Lease; or
(ii) if Tenant has been in Default under any provision of this Lease 3 or more times with respect to the payment of Rent, whether or not the Defaults are cured, during the 12 month period immediately prior to the date that Tenant intends to exercise an Extension Right, whether or not the Defaults are cured.
(e) No Extensions. The period of time within which the Extension Right may be exercised shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenants inability to exercise the Extension Right
(f) Termination. The Extension Right shall, at Landlords option, terminate and be of no further force or effect even after Tenants due and timely exercise of the Extension Right, if, after such exercise, but prior to the commencement date of the Extension Term, (i) Tenant fails to timely cure any Default by Tenant then existing under this Lease for which Tenant received the applicable notice; or (ii) Tenant has Defaulted 3 or more times with respect to the payment of Rent during the period from the date of the exercise of the Extension Right to the date of the commencement of the applicable Extension Term, whether or not such Defaults are cured.
