AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, Landlord and Tenant, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1.                                      Lease Termination.  Provided that Tenant has fully satisfied all of its obligations set forth in this Agreement (“Surrender Obligations”), then the Lease shall terminate effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on July 31, 2016 (“Lease Termination”).  As of the Lease Termination, the Lease shall be fully and finally surrendered and terminated and shall no longer be of any force or effect, except for those provisions that, by their express terms, survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that no termination fee shall be payable to Landlord, pursuant to Section 11 of the Second Amendment to the Lease or otherwise, as a result of the Lease Termination hereunder.

2.                                      Condition Upon Termination.  On the date of Lease Termination, Tenant shall deliver the Premises in the condition required under the Lease, including, but not limited to, under Sections 10.06, 10.07 and 11.04 thereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that Tenant shall have no obligation to remove from the Premises the greenhouse that was approved by Landlord on November 4, 2005. Further, notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, the parties agree that the decommissioning obligations set forth in Section 10.07 of the Lease shall be completed prior to the date of Lease Termination, and the decommissioning report referred to in Section 10.07 of the Lease (the “Exit Survey”)

shall comply with the American National Standards Institute’s Laboratory Decommissioning guidelines (ANSI/AIHA Z9.11-2008) or any successor standards published by ANSI or any successor organization.  At least fifteen (15) days prior to the Lease Termination, Tenant shall (a) provide Landlord with a copy of the Exit Survey and written evidence of all appropriate governmental releases obtained by Tenant in accordance with applicable laws, including laws pertaining to the surrender of the Premises, (b) place laboratory equipment decontamination forms on all decommissioned equipment to assure safe occupancy by future users and (c) conduct a site inspection with Landlord. In addition, Tenant agrees to remain responsible after the surrender of the Premises for the remediation of any recognized environmental conditions set forth in the Exit Survey and comply with any recommendations set forth in the Exit Survey.

3.                                      Landlord Access.  Notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, during the remainder of the Lease Term, Landlord shall have the right to access the Premises upon twenty-four (24) hours’ prior notice to Tenant to show the Premises to prospective tenants.

4.                                      Reservation of Rights.  Notwithstanding any Lease Termination, Landlord does not waive, and hereby reserves, any rights and/or remedies that Landlord may have under the Lease or at law or in equity arising from any default of Tenant under the Lease existing as of the Lease Termination.

5.                                      Release of Rights.  As of Lease Termination, Tenant fully and unconditionally releases, cancels, annuls, rescinds, discharges, disclaims, waives and releases any and all rights and benefits Tenant may have under the Lease arising from and after Lease Termination.

6.                                      Quitclaim.  To the extent, if any, that the Lease gives Tenant any right, title or interest in or to the Premises, Tenant does hereby remise, release and quitclaim to Landlord such right, title or interest in or to the Premises as of the Lease Termination and shall execute and deliver to Landlord any documentation reasonably requested by Landlord to effect or document such remise, release and quitclaim.

7.                                      Representation of Parties.  Each party represents that it has not made any assignment, sublease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of the Lease or any interest therein, nor made or entered into any agreement that would result in any mechanic’s lien or other claim, demand, obligation, liability, action or cause of action arising from or with respect to the Lease or the Premises.

8.                                      Attorneys’ Fees.  Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, each party shall pay its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and such party’s performance under this Agreement, provided, that if either party commences an action, proceeding, demand, claim, action, cause of action or suit against the other party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, then the substantially prevailing party shall be reimbursed by the other party for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by the substantially prevailing party in such action, proceeding, demand, claim, action, cause of action or suit, and in any appeal in connection therewith (regardless of whether the applicable action, proceeding, demand, claim, action, cause of action, suit or appeal is voluntarily withdrawn or dismissed).
