COVENANTS
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00) cash in hand paid, the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1.Recitals. The foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference.
2.Initial Expansion Space. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the First Amendment, effective as of the Effective Date, Tenant’s Lease with respect solely to the Initial Expansion Space is hereby terminated. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Initial Expansion Space was never delivered to Tenant and, accordingly, from and after the Effective Date, neither party shall have any liability or responsibility to the other with respect to the Initial Expansion Space.
3.First Expansion Space and Second Expansion Space.
(a)Description. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to add to the Premises, (i) as of January 1, 2021 (the “First Expansion Space Commencement Date”), that certain office space located on a portion of the thirteenth (13th) floor of the Building deemed to contain six thousand two hundred eighteen (6,218) square feet of rentable area (the “First Expansion Space”), and (ii) as of January 1, 2022 (the “Second Expansion Space Commencement Date”), that certain office space located on a portion of the thirteenth (13th) floor of the Building deemed to contain nine hundred nineteen (919) square feet of rentable area (the “Second Expansion Space”). The First Expansion Space is depicted as the hatched area on the diagram attached hereto as Exhibit A-1, and the Second Expansion Space is depicted as the hatched area on the diagram attached hereto as Exhibit A-2. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby rents from Landlord the First Expansion Space and the Second Expansion Space upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment. On the First Expansion Space Commencement Date, the First Expansion Space shall become part of the Premises and, except as otherwise provided below, shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Lease (as modified by this Amendment) for the remainder of the Term. On the Second Expansion Space Commencement Date, the Second Expansion Space shall become part of the Premises and, except as otherwise provided below, shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Lease (as modified by this Amendment) for the remainder of the Term. The Existing Premises, together with the First Expansion Space and the Second Expansion Space, are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Premises”.
(b)No Delivery Required. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the First Expansion Space is currently occupied by Demeo, LLP, a Massachusetts limited liability partnership (“Demeo”) under a lease with Landlord. Landlord and Demeo have agreed in writing to terminate Demeo’s lease of the First Expansion Space, such termination effective as of December 31, 2020, and Tenant and Demeo intend to enter into a sublease of the First Expansion Space, pursuant to which Demeo will sublease the First Expansion Space from Tenant commencing on January 1, 2021 and expiring on August 31, 2021. Accordingly, Landlord shall not be obligated to deliver physical possession of the First Expansion Space to Tenant on the First Expansion Space Commencement Date, and Tenant shall be responsible for negotiating the
2


terms of a sublease between Tenant and Demeo. If Tenant fails or is otherwise unable to negotiate the terms of a sublease with Demeo, Landlord shall have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto, and Tenant shall remain liable for the payment of rent and all other charges with respect to the First Expansion Space in accordance with the terms set forth in this Amendment. In addition, the Second Expansion Space is currently leased to TIFF Advisory Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“TIFF”), and TIFF has subleased the Second Expansion Space to Demeo. Landlord and TIFF have agreed in writing to an early termination of the lease and TIFF and Demeo have agreed in writing to an early termination of the sublease of the Second Expansion Space, both effective as of August 31, 2021. The Second Expansion Space is not separately demised from the First Expansion Space. Accordingly, Landlord shall not be obligated to deliver physical possession of the Second Expansion Space to Tenant on the Second Expansion Space Commencement Date, the delivery of which will occur de facto upon Demeo’s vacating of the Second Expansion Space. If Demeo fails to vacate all or any portion of the First Expansion Space on or before the expiration of the sublease between Tenant and Demeo (or upon the termination of Demeo’s lease if Demeo and Tenant fail to execute a sublease as currently contemplated), or the Second Expansion Space on or before August 31, 2021, Landlord shall have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto (except that, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, Landlord will commence eviction proceedings against Demeo and thereafter diligently pursue such proceedings in a commercially reasonable manner), and Tenant shall remain liable for the payment of rent and all other charges with respect to the First Expansion Space and the Second Expansion Space in accordance with the terms set forth in this Amendment. Landlord shall have no obligation whatsoever to make any structural or other alterations in or to any part of the First Expansion Space, the Second Expansion Space, the Existing Premises or the Building on account of the First Expansion Space, the Second Expansion Space or this Amendment.
(c)Expansion Allowance. In connection with Tenant’s leasing of the First Expansion Space, Landlord shall provide to Tenant a tenant improvement allowance not to exceed Twenty-Five and 00/100ths Dollars ($25.00) per rentable square foot of the First Expansion Space (i.e., $155,450.00) (the “Expansion Allowance”), for (a) permanent tenant improvements performed in or to the First Expansion Space by Tenant (the “Hard Costs”), and architectural and engineering fees, if any, the construction contract oversight fee, permit costs, furniture, fixtures, equipment, related telephone and computer cabling costs and moving costs (the “Soft Costs”) (such work and tenant improvements being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Renovation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than fifty percent (50%) of the Expansion Allowance may be use for Soft Costs (the “Soft Cost Cap”). The Renovation shall be deemed Alterations for all purposes hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant must receive Landlord’s prior written consent (such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) to the space plans and final working drawings for the Renovation before performing any work. Tenant shall pay to Landlord (or, at Landlord’s election, to its construction contract manager), a construction contract oversight fee equal to one percent (1%) of the Hard Costs. Tenant shall promptly submit to Landlord (but on a monthly basis only): (i) invoices for all Hard Costs and Soft Costs incurred by Tenant in performing the Renovation, together with a signed architect’s certificate of substantial completion of work performed in connection therewith, (ii) signed waivers and releases of mechanic’s liens executed by all contractors, subcontractors and suppliers performing the Renovation or providing materials in connection therewith, and (iii) such other information or documentation as Landlord
3


or its lender may reasonably request or require, such as an estoppel certificate, occupancy permit and/or architect’s final certificate of substantial completion (and architect’s confirmation of completion in compliance with approved plans) upon completion of the Renovation. After inspection and approval of the portion(s) of the Renovation as reflected by such certificates and invoices and receipt and verification of the invoices and waivers submitted, Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for appropriate amounts requested by the invoices. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to reimburse or credit Tenant for any amount if it individually or in the aggregate exceeds the total amount of the Expansion Allowance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have no obligation to reimburse Tenant or to credit any portion of the Expansion Allowance under this Section for Hard Costs or Soft Costs if Tenant fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Section, or if Tenant is in default of the Lease, after giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable grace or cure period, at the time Tenant makes a request for payment or reimbursement or at any time thereafter up to and including the date Landlord makes any such credit or reimbursement to Tenant. Tenant shall submit to Landlord all invoices and requests for reimbursement or payment of all Hard Costs and Soft Costs no later than December 31, 2022 (such day being hereinafter referred to as the “Invoice Submission Deadline”), and Landlord shall have no obligation to reimburse Tenant or pay any amounts for any invoices submitted after such Invoice Submission Deadline, time being of the essence thereto. If Tenant fails to utilize the entire Expansion Allowance for the cost of the Renovations, Tenant shall not be entitled to any credit, cash or otherwise therefor; provided, however, that if the entire Expansion Allowance is not applied toward or reserved for the cost of the Renovations, then, so long as Tenant is not in default under the Lease, at Tenant’s written request (such request to be made on or before the Invoice Submission Deadline), Tenant shall receive a credit of such unused and unreserved portion of the Expansion Allowance (not to exceed in the aggregate, when taken together with the Soft Costs, the Soft Cost Cap) against Base Rent next coming due under the Lease (as amended hereby).
4.Term.
(a)First Expansion Space. The Term with respect to the First Expansion Space shall commence on the First Expansion Space Commencement Date and shall expire (if not otherwise terminated sooner in accordance with the terms of the Lease or this Amendment) on June 30, 2028 (the “Revised Expiration Date”).
