Nov. 10, 2000 Exhibit 10.9 AGREEMENT OF SUBLEASE This Agreement of Sublease (this "Sublease") is made as of the 31st day of March, 2000 by and between RENAISSANCE WORLDWIDE, INC., a Massachusetts corporation, having an office at 52 Second Avenue, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451 ("Sublessor"), and NETEGRITY, INC., a Delaware corporation, having an office at 200 West Street, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451 ("Sublessee"). WITNESSETH WHEREAS, by a certain Lease Agreement, dated as of June 30, 1998 (the "Lease"), by and between Waltham 60/10 LLC ("Landlord"), as landlord, and Sublessor, as tenant, Landlord leased to Sublessor certain premises consisting of approximately 201,378 rentable square feet (the "Premises), being all of the rentable area in that certain building known as and numbered 52 Second Avenue, Waltham, Massachusetts (the "Building"), which Premises are more particularly described in the Lease, a copy of which Lease is annexed hereto as EXHIBIT A and made a part hereof; and WHEREAS, Sublessee desires to sublease from Sublessor and Sublessor is willing to sublease to Sublessee a portion of the Premises consisting of the entire third floor of the Building, containing approximately 50,345 rentable square feet as more particularly set forth on EXHIBIT B annexed hereto and made a part hereof (the "Subleased Premises"); NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of Ten Dollars ($10) in hand paid by Sublessee to Sublessor, the mutual covenants herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 1. SUBLEASING OF SUBLEASED PREMISES; CONDITION OF PREMISES. (1) Sublessor hereby subleases to Sublessee and Sublessee hereby hires from Sublessor, the Subleased Premises, upon and subject to all of the terms, covenants, rentals and conditions hereinafter set forth. (2) Sublessee shall accept so much of the Subleased Premises, containing approximately 30,000 rentable square feet, as is currently finished and improved for Sublessor's occupancy, as more particularly shown on Exhibit B- 1 attached hereto and made apart hereof (the "Initial Premises"). The Subleased Premises shall be delivered broom clean and otherwise in "as is" condition as of the date hereof, subject to ordinary wear and tear between the date hereof and the "Commencement Date" (as hereinafter defined). Sublessee expressly acknowledges and agrees that Sublessor has made no representations with respect to the Subleased Premises or the Building except as expressly provided herein and is not obligated to make repairs of or to perform any work at the Subleased Premises, except as set forth in subsection (c) below. To the best of Sublessor's knowledge, as of the date hereof, electric, plumbing and other major Building systems servicing the Subleased Premises are in good working order and repair and the Subleased Premises are in compliance with all laws, ordinances, codes and regulations affecting the Premises. (3) The balance of the Subleased Premises (i.e. so much of the Subleased Premises as is not part of the Initial Premises), containing approximately 20,345 rentable square feet, as more particularly shown on Exhibit B-2 attached hereto and made a part hereof (the "Additional Premises"), is currently unfinished "shell" space. Sublessee and Sublessor have agreed upon the layout/partitioning plan for the Additional Premises, which layout/partitioning plan is attached hereto as Exhibit C and made a part hereof. Sublessor shall, at Sublessor's sole cost and expense, cause the Additional Premises to be built out in accordance with Exhibit C to a kind and quality of construction consistent with that of the Initial Premises as of the date hereof excluding any non-standard improvements, including, but not limited to, any labs, special electrical (such as any work to equip an office or cubicle for more than one computer), mechanical or plumbing requirements, and all tel/data cabling. All such non-standard improvements, as well as any changes or additions to the plan on Exhibit B, shall be at Sublessee's sole cost and expense and shall be deemed Additional Rent. Sublessor also acknowledges and agrees that it is obligated at its sole cost and expense to restore the Subleased Premises at the end of the Term substantially in accordance with Exhibit C including, without limitation, the restoration of each circled and checked area of the plan on Exhibit C in accordance with the plan on Exhibit C. Such cost and expense shall be deemed Additional Rent. The "Additional Premises Rent Commencement Date" referred to in Section 3 below shall mean the earlier of (i) such date as Sublessor delivers the Additional Premises to Sublessee substantially complete and suitable for Sublessee's use and occupancy but not in any event prior to April 1, 2000; (ii) such date as Sublessee takes occupancy of any portion of the Additional Premises for business purposes; or (iii) such date as the Additional Premises would have been substantially complete but for a delay in the build-out attributable to any change, addition or non-standard improvement to the plan in Exhibit B requested by Sublessee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublessee shall have the right, so long as the same does not materially adversely affect the progress or completion of Sublessor's work therein, to have access to the Additional Premises at least two weeks prior to such substantial completion date for the purpose of installing Sublessee's furnishings and equipment, without such access being deemed to be occupancy for Sublessee's business purposes. Sublessor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the Additional Premises substantially complete and suitable for Sublessee's use and occupancy on or before June 10, 2000. In the event that the Additional Premises are not substantially complete within ninety (90) days after June 10, 2000, as extended by any delay attributable to any change, addition or non-standard improvement -2- requested by Sublessee or Sublessee's failure to promptly respond to Sublessor requests for approvals or consents or by any other act or negligence of Sublessee or Sublessee's agents, contractors or employees (together, "Sublessee Delays") and by any delays caused by FORCE MAJEURE, which shall include strikes, inability to obtain materials, casualties, and any other matters beyond Sublessor's reasonable control, then Sublessee may terminate this Sublease by providing written notice to Sublessor prior to substantial completion. If the Additional Premises are not substantially complete by June 10, 2000, unless such delay in substantial completion was due to Sublessee Delays or force majeure, then Sublessee shall be entitled to an abatement of rent for the Additional Premises until such Additional Premises are substantially complete. (4) The Subleased Premises shall include the use of the Building Common Areas (except as provided herein) and parking, cafeteria and fitness room (as further described in Section 22 hereof). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (i) the Subleased Premises shall not include, and Sublessor expressly reserves the exclusive use of (including continuous access to and from) Telephone Closet No. 3129, it being understood that, except in emergency, Sublessor shall use good faith efforts to give reasonable prior notice, which may be oral, of its exercise of such access rights, and to minimize disruption of Sublessee's use and enjoyment of the Subleased Premises; (ii) Sublessor and Sublessee shall share appropriate usage of Telephone Closet No. 3052; (iii) Sublessee's furnishings and usage of Activity Room 3020 shall be subject to Sublessor's review and approval, which shall not be unreasonable, giving due consideration to visibility of Activity Room 3020 from other portions of the Building; (iv) Sublessee shall provide its own reception functions within the Subleased Premises, and shall not have any right to representation at or participation in Sublessor's reception on the first office level of the Building; and (v) Sublessee shall be entitled to use the video kiosk closet No. 3094 for the purpose of installing its own video monitor consistent with section 5(a). 2. TERM. The term (the "Term") of this Sublease shall commence on April 1, 2000 (the "Commencement Date"), and shall expire at 11:59 P.M. on March 31, 2003 (the "Expiration Date"), unless sooner extended or terminated as hereinafter provided. 3.

(2) Fixed Rent shall be due and payable on the first (1st) day of each calendar month during the Term at the office of Sublessor, or at such other place as Sublessor may designate by written notice, at any time from time to time, without any set-off or deduction of any kind whatsoever, except that Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor the first monthly installment of Fixed Rent due under this Sublease (together with such electricity charges as shall be due in accordance with Section 23 of this Sublease), upon the execution of this Sublease. 4.

Sublessee shall be entitled to Sublessee's Proportionate Share of any credit or refund as and when received by Sublessor, and shall pay Sublessee's Proportionate Share of any additional payment request to be made by Sublessor for Operating Costs in excess of $9.50 per rentable square feet per year as a result of the final determination of Operating Costs for any calendar year as Section 4.2 of the Lease provided. Sublessee's Proportionate share shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is the rentable square feet in the Subleased Premises and the denominator of which is the rentable square feet in the Building, currently 50,345/201,378 or 25%. (2) All amounts payable by Sublessee to Sublessor pursuant to this Sublease, including, without limitation, Fixed Rent and Additional Rent, shall be deemed to be and shall constitute rent for all purposes hereunder and, in the event of any non-payment thereof, Sublessor shall have all of the rights and remedies provided herein (including, without limitation, those rights and remedies set forth in Section 10 hereof), at law or in equity for non-payment of rent. The obligation of Sublessee to pay all amounts to Sublessor of Fixed Rent and Additional Rent due hereunder and under the Lease arising during the term of the Sublease, as incorporated herein and as modified hereby, shall survive the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this -4- Sublease. 5. CARE, SURRENDER AND RESTORATION OF THE PREMISE. (1) Without limiting any other provision of this Sublease or the Lease, Sublessee shall take good care of the Subleased Premises, suffer no waste or injury thereto and shall comply with all laws, orders and regulations applicable to the Subleased Premises, the Building and Sublessee's use or manner of use thereof, which are imposed on Sublessor, as tenant under the Lease, in connection with the Subleased Premises and/or the Building.

SUBORDINATION TO AND INCORPORATION OF TERMS OF THE LEASE. (1) This Sublease is in all respects subject and subordinate to all of the terms, provisions, covenants, stipulations, conditions and agreements of the Lease, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Sublease, all of the terms, provisions, covenants, stipulations, conditions, rights, obligations, remedies and agreements of the Lease (including but not limited to Article 14 (except for Section 14.3) of the Lease as to payment of Fixed Rent and Additional Rent in accordance with the provisions hereof) are incorporated in this Sublease by reference and made a part hereof as if herein set forth at length, and shall, as between Sublessor and Sublessee (as if they were the Landlord and Tenant, respectively, under the Lease, and the -5- word "Lease" were "Sublease"), constitute the terms of this Sublease, except for Articles 2, 3, 4, Section 5.5, Article 9, Sections 14.2 (e), 14.3, 15.1, 16.1 and 16.3, Articles 17 and 20 and Sections 21.9 and 21.10, as well as such other terms of the Lease as do not relate to the Subleased Premises or are inapplicable to, inconsistent with, or specifically modified by, the terms of this Sublease (which provisions, for purposes of this Sublease, are hereby deemed deleted in their entirety). Sections 5.1 through 5.4 of the Lease are incorporated herein expressly subject to the provisions of Section 9 hereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, Sublessee shall not take any action or do or permit to be done anything which (i) is or may be prohibited to Sublessor, as tenant under the Lease, (ii) might result in a violation of or default under any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of the Lease or any other instrument to which this Sublease is subordinate, or (iii) would result in any additional cost or other liability to Sublessor. This clause shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required, but Sublessee shall execute promptly any certificate confirming such subordination that Sublessor may request. In the event of any inconsistency between this Sublease and the Lease, such inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of that obligation which is more onerous to Sublessee or that restriction which is more restrictive of Sublessee, as the case may be. (2) In the event that the Lease is canceled or terminated due to default of Sublessor, Sublessee shall, at the option of Landlord, attorn to and recognize Landlord, as Sublessor hereunder, and shall, promptly upon Landlord's request, execute and deliver all instruments necessary or appropriate to confirm such attornment and recognition. Sublessor has disclosed to Sublessee that Sublessor and Landlord dispute certain matters relating to the Lease including, without limitation, whether Sublessor has performed in a timely manner all of its obligations under the Lease. These disputes arose prior to the date of this Sublease.

SUBLESSEE'S OBLIGATIONS. Except as specifically set forth herein to the contrary, all acts to be performed by, and all of the terms, provisions, covenants, stipulations, conditions, obligations and agreements to be observed by, Sublessor, as tenant under the Lease, shall, to the extent that the same relate to the Subleased Premises, be performed and observed by Sublessee, and Sublessee's obligations in respect thereof shall run to Sublessor or Landlord, as Sublessor may determine to be appropriate or as may be required by the respective interests of Sublessor and Landlord. Sublessee shall indemnify, defend and hold Sublessor harmless from and against all liabilities, losses, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and other costs) which are paid, suffered or incurred by Sublessor or claimed or asserted against Sublessor as a result of or alleged to have resulted from the nonperformance or -6- nonobservance of any such terms, provisions, covenants, stipulations, conditions, obligations or agreements by Sublessee under this Sublease. 9. SUBLESSOR'S OBLIGATIONS. Sublessor agrees that except as expressly provided herein, Sublessee shall have and enjoy the same rights which Sublessor, as tenant under the Lease, has to performance by Landlord of any service, repair, alteration or other similar obligation which is the obligation of Landlord to perform under those provisions of the Lease incorporated herein, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything contained in this Sublease to the contrary, Sublessor shall have no responsibility to Sublessee for, and shall not be required to provide, any of the services or make any of the repairs or restorations which Landlord has agreed to make or provide, or cause to be made or provided, under the Lease (including, without limitation, Landlord's obligations set forth in Article 5 of the Lease) and Sublessee shall rely upon, and look solely to, Landlord for the provision of such services and the performance of such repairs and restorations.

If Landlord shall default in any of its obligations to Sublessor with respect to the Subleased Premises, Sublessee shall be entitled to request that Sublessor enforce Sublessor's rights against Landlord with respect thereto. Sublessor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce Sublessor's rights against Landlord. In no event shall Sublessor have any obligation to bring any action or proceeding against Landlord. In the event of such default and in the event that Sublessor elects a remedy that entitles Sublessor to rent abatement and Sublessor receives such abatement, then Sublessor agrees to pass on to Sublessee a share of such abatement to the extent it applies to the Subleased Premises. 10. COVENANTS WITH RESPECT TO THE LEASE.

Such remedies shall be in addition to all other remedies available to Sublessor at law or in equity. 11. BROKER .

In no event shall Sublessor be liable for any indirect incidental, special, punitive or consequential damages, including lost profit or revenues, even if informed of their possibility. 13. TERMINATION OF LEASE. If the term of the Lease is terminated prior to the Expiration Date, then, subject to Section 7(b) hereof, this Sublease shall immediately terminate and Sublessor shall not be liable to Sublessee by reason thereof. 14. APPROVALS OR CONSENTS. In all provisions of the Lease requiring the approval or consent of Landlord, Sublessee shall be required to obtain the express written approval or consent of Sublessor. 15. TIME LIMITS. The parties agree that unless otherwise expressly modified herein, the time limits set forth in the Lease for the giving of notices, making demands, payment of any sum, the performance of any act, condition or covenant, or the exercise of any right, remedy or option, are modified for the purpose of this Sublease by (i) shortening the same in each instance by three (3) business days (but never to less than two (2) calendar days) if requiring performance by Sublessee, and (ii) by lengthening the same in each instance by three (3) business days if requiring performance by Sublessor, so that notices may be given, demands made, any act, condition or covenant performed and any right or remedy hereunder exercised, by Sublessor or Sublessee, as the case may be, within the time limits relating thereto contained in the Lease. Sublessor and Sublessee shall, promptly after receipt thereof, furnish to each other a copy of each notice, demand or other communication received from Landlord with respect to the Subleased Premises. 16. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. (1) Sublessee shall not assign, sublet, mortgage, pledge or encumber this Sublease, the Subleased Premises, or any interest in the whole or in any portion thereof, without the prior written consent of Sublessor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). For purposes of this Article 16, a transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, of a controlling interest in the capital stock or other ownership or membership interests in Sublessee shall be deemed to be an assignment of this Sublease. If Sublessee makes any such assignment, mortgage, sublease or pledge (whether with or without Sublessor's written consent), Sublessee named herein shall nonetheless remain primarily liable for the performance and observation of all -9- of the terms of this Sublease required to be observed or performed by Sublessee hereunder. Fifty percent (50%) of the amount by which any rentals, fees and charges from time to time received by Sublessee in connection with any such assignment or sublease (after first netting out any reasonable brokerage and re-letting expenses actually incurred by Sublessee), exceed the Fixed Rent and Additional Rent payable to Sublessor hereunder (hereinafter referred to as "Excess Rental") shall be paid immediately by Sublessee to Sublessor as Additional Rent under this Sublease. In such event, the Fixed Rent and Additional Rent payable by Sublessee to Sublessor under this Sublease for the balance of the Sublease Term shall be increased by an amount equal to the Excess Rental. In addition, Sublessor shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Sublease effective as of the proposed effective date of any assignment or sublease, by giving Sublessee written notice thereof within ten (10) days after Sublessor's receipt of said notice front Sublessee; and in the event Sublessee shall propose to sublet only a portion of the Subleased Premises, Sublessor shall have the additional option to terminate this Sublease as to that portion of the Subleased Premises proposed to be sublet. Should Sublessor not elect to so terminate this Sublease in connection with any proposed subletting or assignment, Sublessor shall continue to have the right to disapprove same (subject to the terms herein). Upon any subletting or assignment by Sublessee in accordance with the terms hereof, any extension option granted herein other than a permitted assignment pursuant to Paragraph 16 (3) shall become null and void. Consent by Sublessor to one or more assignments or sublettings shall not operate as a waiver of Sublessor's rights as to any subsequent assignments or sublettings. (2) If Sublessee should desire to assign this Sublease or sublet the Subleased Premises (or any part thereof), Sublessee shall give Sublessor written notice thirty (30) days in advance of the proposed effective date of any proposed assignment or sublease, specifying (i) the name, current address, and business of the proposed assignee or sublessee, (ii) the amount and location of the space within the Subleased Premises proposed to be so subleased, (iii) the proposed effective date and duration of the assignment or subletting, and (iv) the proposed rent or consideration to be paid to Sublessee by such assignee or sublessee. Sublessee shall promptly supply Sublessor with financial statements and other information as Sublessor may reasonably request to evaluate the proposed assignment or sublease. Sublessee agrees to reimburse Sublessor for Sublessor's reasonable attorney's fees incurred. (3) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Sublease, Sublessee shall have the right, for which Sublessor's prior written consent shall not be withheld or delayed, at any time, and from time to time to transfer to any entity into or with which Sublessee is merged or consolidated, or to which substantially all of Sublessee's assets are transferred, or to any corporation that controls or is controlled by Sublessee, or is under common control with Sublessee, provided in any of such events (a) the successor to Sublessee has a net worth (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) of at least $50,000,000, -10- and (b) proof satisfactory to Sublessor of such net worth shall have been delivered to Sublessor within five (5) days after the effective date of any such transaction. In the event of such a transfer, Sublessor shall have the right to increase the security deposit if in its reasonable opinion it deems such increase appropriate. This covenant and assignment shall run with the land and shall bind Sublessee and Sublessee's heirs, executors, administrators, personal, representatives, successors and assigns. (4) If Sublessee assigns, sublets or makes any other transfer of all or any portion of its interest(s) hereunder, Sublessee named in this Sublease shall remain directly arid primarily responsible for the faithful performance and observance of all of the covenants and obligations on Sublessee's part to be performed in this Sublease. (5) Any assignee or subtenant hereunder shall be bound by and shall comply with all of the terms and provisions in this Sublease. As a condition to the effectiveness of any assignment that is permitted hereunder, the assignee shall, by an instrument in writing, within five (5) days after the effective date of the applicable transaction assume and agree to perform (for the express benefit of Sublessor) the terms hereof; and as a condition to the effectiveness of any sublease that is permitted hereunder, the subtenant shall acknowledge in writing (for the express benefit of Sublessor) within five (5) days after the effective date of the applicable transaction the existence of this Sublease and shall covenant not to do or permit to be done anything that would constitute a breach thereof. (6) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Paragraph 16 to the contrary, provided Sublessee is not in default hereunder, Sublessor shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to Sublessee's request to assign this Sublease or to sublease the Subleased Premises. In determining the reasonableness of Sublessor's approval of or failure to consent to Sublessee's assignment of this Sublease or the subleasing of the Subleased Premises, Sublessor may take into consideration all relevant factors surrounding the proposed sublease and assignment, including without limitation, the following: (1) the business reputation of the proposed assignee or subtenant and its partners, officers, directors and stockholders; (2) the nature of the business and the proposed use of the Subleased Premises by the proposed assignee or subtenant; (3) the financial condition of the proposed assignee or subtenant; (4) the effect that the proposed assignee or subtenant would have on the -11- operations and maintenance of the Building; (5) whether or not the proposed assignee or subtenant is presently a competitor (or subsidiary, affiliate or parent of a competitor); (6) restrictions, if any, contained in other leases or agreements affecting the Building; (7) the extent to which the proposed subtenant or assignee and Sublessee provide Sublessor with assurances reasonably satisfactory to Sublessor as to the satisfaction of Sublessee's obligations hereunder, including the payment of rent; (8) restrictions, if any, imposed by the holder of any mortgage encumbering the Building or any portion thereof; taking into account the fact that the Building is Sublessor's corporate headquarters and that portions of the Subleased Premises are visible from Building common areas, including the atrium, and from other premises occupied by Sublessor and by other tenants. 17. END OF TERM. Sublessee acknowledges that possession of the Subleased Premises must be surrendered to Sublessor onthe Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Sublease (subject to the force majeure) in the same condition as set forth in Section 5(b) hereof, subject to normal wear and tear, casualty or condemnation. Sublessee agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Sublessor harmless from, any and all liabilities, losses, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorney's fees and other charges) which are paid, suffered or incurred by Sublessor as a result of the failure of, or the delay by, Sublessee in so surrendering the Subleased Premises, including, without limitation, any claims made by Landlord or any succeeding tenant founded on such failure or delay. 18. DESTRUCTION, FIRE AND OTHER CASUALTY. [Intentionally Omitted] 19. EMINENT DOMAIN.

Sublessee shall look solely to the new sublandlord for the return of such Letter of Credit and the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of the security to a new sublandlord. Sublessee further covenants and agrees that it shall not assign or encumber or attempt to assign or encumber the Letter of Credit deposited herein as security and that neither Sublessor nor its successors or assigns shall be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance.
