The Manufacturing Facility will supplement the Companys existing laboratory and office facility (the Cambridge Facility) at 733 Concord Avenue, Cambridge, Massachusetts, which serves as the Companys U.S. headquarters. The Cambridge Facility is also leased to the Company by affiliates of the Landlord. The Manufacturing Facility is located at 115 Hartwell Avenue, Lexington, Massachusetts 02421, which is part of The Hartwell Innovation Campus. The Company currently expects to commence its occupancy of the Manufacturing Facility by the end of the first quarter of 2017.
Under the terms of the Lease, the Company will lease approximately 57,561 square feet (the Initial Manufacturing Space) for which the Company shall pay an average base rent of approximately $2.8 million per year during the initial term. The initial term of the Lease commences upon the Companys occupancy of the Manufacturing Facility, which is anticipated under the Lease to be March 21, 2017, and continues for 10 years and nine months from the actual commencement date. The Lease provides the Company with options to renew for two successive terms of five years each, subject to the terms of the Lease.
In addition to the Initial Manufacturing Space, the Company has the option, on or before December 31, 2016, to expand the Initial Manufacturing Space to include the remainder of the building, which is an additional approximately 33,650 square feet (the Expansion Option). If the Company exercises the Expansion Option, the Company will be required to pay an additional average base rent of approximately $1.8 million per year during the initial term.
Throughout the term of the Lease, the Company is responsible for paying certain costs and expenses, in addition to the rent, as specified in the Lease, including a proportionate share of applicable taxes, operating expenses, and utilities. The Lease includes various covenants, indemnities, defaults, termination rights, and other provisions customary for lease transactions of this nature, including the posting by the Company of an approximately $2.6 million letter of credit as a security deposit.
The foregoing description of the Lease does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Lease, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

THIS INDENTURE OF LEASE (this Lease) is hereby made and entered into on the Execution Date by and between Landlord and Tenant.
Each reference in this Lease to any of the terms and titles contained in any Exhibit attached to this Lease shall be deemed and construed to incorporate the data stated under that term or title in such Exhibit. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them as set forth in the Lease Summary Sheet which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
CREATION OF CONDOMINIUM
(1) Reference is made to the fact that, as of the Execution Date of this Lease, the Land is subject to the Ground Lease.
(2) On or about the time that construction of the Building is sufficiently complete in order to enable Landlord to establish the Condominium pursuant to Chapter 183A of the General Laws of Massachusetts, Landlord will establish the Condominium by filing the Master Deed and Declaration of Trust of the Condominium. The Master Deed will be in the form of attached hereto as Exhibit 4-1 and the Declaration of Trust will be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 4-2, provided however, that Landlord shall have the right to modify the forms of the Master Deed and/or the Declaration of Trust in such manner may, in its sole judgment, determine is necessary, provided that no such modification shall materially adversely affect Tenants rights or obligations under this Lease (the Master Deed, as amended pursuant to this Paragraph (2) being referred to herein as the Master Deed, and the Declaration of Trust, as amended pursuant to this Paragraph (2) being referred to herein as the Declaration of Trust).
(3) The Lease shall be subject and subordinate, in all respects, to the Master Deed, the Declaration of Trust, and the other documents establishing the Condominium (Condominium Documents). Tenant shall, at Landlords request, execute a reasonable instrument, in recordable form, confirming that the Lease is subject and subordinate to the Condominium Documents.
1. | LEASE GRANT; TERM; APPURTENANT RIGHTS; EXCLUSIONS |
1.1 Lease Grant. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, each Portion of the Premises upon and subject to terms and conditions of this Lease, for a term of years commencing on the Term Commencement Date and, unless earlier terminated or extended pursuant to the terms hereof, ending on the Expiration Date (the Initial Term; the Initial Term and any duly exercised Extension Terms are hereinafter collectively referred to as the Term).
1.2 Extension Terms.
(a) Provided that the following conditions, which may be waived by Landlord in its sole discretion, are satisfied (i) Tenant, an Affiliated Entity (hereinafter defined) and/or a Successor (hereinafter defined) is/are then occupying at least fifty percent (50%) rentable area of the Premises; and (ii) no Event of Default nor an event which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (1) as of
PAGE 1
the date of the Extension Notice (hereinafter defined), and (2) at the commencement of the Extension Term (hereinafter defined) in question, Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term for two (2) successive additional terms of five (5) years each (each such additional term an Extension Term). The first such Extension Term (the First Extension Term) shall commence as of the day immediately following the expiration of the Initial Term, and, if Tenant timely and properly exercises its right to extend the Term of the Lease for the First Extension Term, the second such Extension Term (the Second Extension Term) commencing as of the day immediately following the expiration of the First Extension Term. Tenant must exercise its option to extend, if at all, by giving Landlord written notice (the Extension Notice) on or after the date that is fifteen (15) months prior to the expiration of the then current Term of this Lease and on or before the date that is nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the then current Term of this Lease, time being of the essence. Upon the timely giving of such notice, the Term shall be deemed extended for the Extension Term in question, upon all of the terms and conditions of this Lease immediately preceding the commencement of such Extension Term, without the need for further act or deed of either party, except that Base Rent during such Extension Term shall be calculated in accordance with this Section 1.2, Landlord shall have no obligation to construct or renovate the Premises, and Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Term other than the single Extension Term provided above. If Tenant fails to give timely notice, as aforesaid, Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Term. Notwithstanding the fact that Tenants proper and timely exercise of such option to extend the Term shall be self-executing, the parties shall promptly execute a lease amendment reflecting the applicable Extension Term after Tenant exercises such option. The execution of such lease amendment shall not be deemed to waive any of the conditions to Tenants exercise of its rights under this Section 1.2.
(b) The Base Rent payable by Tenant with respect to each Extension Term (the Extension Term Base Rent) shall be determined in accordance with the process described hereafter. Extension Term Base Rent payable by Tenant with respect to each Extension Term shall be the fair market rental value of the Premises then demised to Tenant as of the commencement of such Extension Term as determined in accordance with the process described below, for renewals of combination laboratory and office space in Lexington, Massachusetts, of equivalent quality, size, utility and location, with the length of such Extension Term, the credit standing of Tenant and all other relevant factors to be taken into account, including, without limitation, any concessions granted to tenants in the marketplace (such as, without limitation, free rent, free parking, tenant improvement allowances, lease assumptions, and moving and other allowances) and proximity to public transportation. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Extension Notice, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant written notice of its determination of the Extension Term Base Rent for the Extension Term in question. Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant accepts or rejects Landlords determination of the Extension Term Base Rent (Tenants Response Notice). If Tenant fails timely to deliver Tenants Response Notice, then Landlord shall send Tenant a written reminder notice (Reminder Notice), specifically referring to this Section 1.2(b) and advising Tenant of the effect of failing to send a timely Tenants Response Notice, and if Tenant fails to deliver a Tenants Response to Notice to Landlord on or before the date ten (10) days after Tenant receives a Reminder Notice, then Landlords determination of the Extension Term Base Rent shall be binding on Tenant.
PAGE 2
(c) If and only if Tenants Response Notice is timely delivered to Landlord and indicates both that Tenant rejects Landlords determination of the Extension Term Base Rent and desires to submit the matter to arbitration, then the Extension Term Base Rent shall be determined in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 1.2(d).
(d) If, pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1.2, a dispute as to fair market rental value is to be submitted to appraisal, then, on or before the date (Appraiser Designation Date) twenty (20) days after receipt by Landlord of Tenants Response Notice indicating Tenants desire to submit the determination of the Extension Term Base Rent to arbitration, Tenant and Landlord shall each notify the other, in writing, of their respective selections of an appraiser (respectively, Landlords Appraiser and Tenants Appraiser). Landlords Appraiser and Tenants Appraiser shall then jointly select a third appraiser (the Third Appraiser) within ten (10) days of their appointment.

(a) Operating Costs shall not include Excluded Costs (hereinafter defined).
(b) Excluded Costs shall be defined as (i) any ground rent, or any mortgage charges (including interest, principal, points and fees); (ii) leasing fees, brokerage commissions, advertising and promotional expenses, legal fees, the cost of tenant improvements, build out allowances, moving expenses, assumption of rent under existing leases and other concessions incurred in connection with leasing space in the Building; (iii) salaries of executives and owners not directly employed in the management/operation of the Property and salaries and other compensation of employees, officers, executives or administrative personnel of Landlord above the position of building manager; (iv) the cost of work done by Landlord for a particular tenant, and the cost of work or services performed for any facility other than the Building or the Property; (v) the cost of items incurred by Landlord performing maintenance, repair, or replacement of the structure elements of the Building, including the structural portions of the roof (the parties expressly agreeing that costs relating to the maintenance, repair or replacement of the roof membrane shall not be deemed to be excluded from Operating Costs pursuant to the provisions of this clause (v)), structural columns, floor slab and exterior walls; (vi) the costs of Landlords Work and any contributions made by Landlord to any tenant of the Property in connection with the build-out of its premises; (vii) franchise or income taxes imposed on Landlord; (viii) costs paid directly by individual tenants to suppliers, including tenant electricity, telephone and other utility costs; (ix) increases in premiums for insurance when such increase is caused by the use of the Building by Landlord or any other tenant of the Building; (x) depreciation of the Building, or any part thereof; (xi) costs relating to maintaining Landlords existence as a corporation, partnership or other entity; (xii) advertising, promotional or marketing expenses for the Building; (xiii) the cost of repairs incurred by reason of fire or other casualty or condemnation in excess of costs which are included in any commercially reasonable deductible carried by Landlord under its casualty insurance policy (the parties hereby acknowledging that, as of the Execution Date, $10,000 is a commercially reasonable deductible), and the cost of any items for which Landlord is reimbursed by insurance, condemnation awards, refund, rebate or otherwise (provided that the foregoing shall not apply to payments by any tenant of the Building on account of such tenants share of Operating Cost and Tax pass-through or escalation over base-year provisions under their leases), and any expenses for repairs or maintenance to the extent covered by warranties, guaranties and service contracts; (xiv) costs incurred in connection with any disputes between Landlord and its employees, between Landlord and Building management, or between Landlord and other tenants or occupants; (xv) accrual or replacement of reserves for future repair or replacement costs; (xvi) any legal expenses arising out of any misconduct or negligence of Landlord or any person for which Landlord is responsible or arising out of dealings between any principals constituting Landlord or arising out of any leasing, sale, syndication, or financing of the Building or the Property or any part thereof or arising out of disputes with tenants, other occupants, or prospective tenants or occupants or out of the construction of the improvements on the Property; (xvii) cost and expense of Landlords Work; (xviii) any amounts paid by Landlord for which reimbursement is made from any source, including without limitation any cost recovered under any warranty, guaranty or insurance policy maintained or held by Landlord (provided that the foregoing shall not apply to payments by any

tenant of the Building on account of such tenants share of Operating Cost and Tax pass-through or escalation over base-year provisions under their leases); (xix) any cost representing an amount paid for services or materials to a related person or entity to the extent such amount exceeds the amount that would be paid for such services or materials at the then existing market rates to an unrelated person or entity (provided however, that the provisions of this clause (xix) shall not apply to or limit management or administrative fees, which for the avoidance of doubt shall be included in Operating Costs only to the extent as provided in Section 5.2(a) above); (xx) costs of any cleanup, containment, abatement, removal or remediation of asbestos or other substances regulated by applicable law, rule, regulation or ordinance and detrimental to the environment or to the health of occupants of the Property, including without limitation Hazardous Materials (as hereinafter defined); (xxi) any increase in the cost of insurance attributable to the particular activities of any tenant which increases the cost of any fire, extended coverage or any other insurance policy covering all or any portion of the Property; (xxii) the cost of acquisition of any sculpture, paintings or other objects of art; and (xxiii) any capital expenditures except those (Permitted Capital Expenditures) which either: (a) are required by Legal Requirements which first become effective and applicable to the Property after the Commencement Date, (b) are reasonably projected by Landlord to achieve savings in Operating Expenses (i.e., taking into account the Annual Charge-Off included in Operating Expenses as the result of the capital expenditure in question, or (c) which constitute Replacement Cost for Major HVAC Components, as defined in Section 10.1A.
(c) Payment of Operating Costs. Commencing as of the Term Commencement Date and, subject to the last sentence of this Section 5.2(c), continuing thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term of the Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, Tenants Share of Operating Costs. Landlord may make a good faith estimate of Tenants Share of Operating Costs for any fiscal year or part thereof during the Term, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the Term Commencement Date and on the first (1st) day of each calendar month thereafter, an amount equal to Tenants Share of Operating Costs for such fiscal year and/or part thereof divided by the number of months therein. Landlord may estimate and re-estimate Tenants Share of Operating Costs and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to Tenant. Thereafter, the monthly installments of Tenants Share of Operating Costs shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so that, by the end of the fiscal year in question, Tenant shall have paid all of Tenants Share of Operating Costs as estimated by Landlord. Any amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment as herein provided when actual Operating Costs are available for each fiscal year. As of the Execution Date, the Propertys fiscal year is January 1 December 31. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Operating Costs shall not include any cost of any Building repairs or replacements performed by Landlord during the ninety (90) day period commencing as of the Term Commencement Date, unless Tenant or any Tenant party is responsible for the cause of such repairs or replacements.
(d) Annual Reconciliation. Landlord shall, within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year, deliver to Tenant a reasonably detailed statement of the actual amount of Operating Costs for such fiscal year (Year End Statement). Failure of Landlord to provide the Year End Statement within the time prescribed shall not relieve Tenant from its obligations hereunder. If the total of such monthly remittances on account of any fiscal year is greater than Tenants Share of Operating Costs actually incurred for such fiscal year, then, Tenant may credit the difference against the next installment(s) of additional rent on account of
PAGE 17
Operating Costs due hereunder, except that if such difference is determined after the end of the Term, Landlord shall refund such difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such determination to the extent that such difference exceeds any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord. If the total of such remittances is less than Tenants Share of Operating Costs actually incurred for such fiscal year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord, as additional rent hereunder, within thirty (30) days of Tenants receipt of an invoice therefor. Landlords estimate of Operating Costs for the next fiscal year shall be based upon the Operating Costs actually incurred for the prior fiscal year as reflected in the Year-End Statement plus a reasonable adjustment based upon estimated increases in Operating Costs. The provisions of this Section 5.2(d) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
(e) Part Years. If the Term Commencement Date or the Expiration Date occurs in the middle of a fiscal year, Tenant shall be liable for only that portion of the Operating Costs with respect to such fiscal year within the Term.
(f) Gross-Up. If, during any fiscal year, less than 100% of the Building is occupied by tenants or if Landlord was not supplying all tenants with the services being supplied to Tenant hereunder, actual Operating Costs incurred shall be reasonably extrapolated by Landlord on an item-by-item basis to the reasonable Operating Costs that would have been incurred if the Building was 100% occupied and such services were being supplied to all tenants, and such extrapolated Operating Costs shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to be the Operating Costs for such fiscal year. This gross up treatment shall be applied only with respect to variable Operating Costs arising from services provided to Common Areas or to space in the Building being occupied by tenants (which services are not provided to vacant space or may be provided only to some tenants) in order to allocate equitably such variable Operating Costs to the tenants receiving the benefits thereof.
(g) Capital Expenditures.
1. Annual Charge-Off. Annual Charge-Off shall be defined as the annual amount of principal and interest payments which would be required to repay a loan (Capital Loan) in equal monthly installments over the Useful Life, as hereinafter defined, of the capital item in question on a level payment direct reduction basis at an annual interest rate equal to the Capital Interest Rate, as hereinafter defined, where the initial principal balance is the cost of the capital item in question. However, if Landlord reasonably concludes on the basis of engineering estimates that a particular capital expenditure will effect savings in Building operating costs including, without limitation, energy-related costs, and that such projected savings will, on an annual basis (Projected Annual Savings), exceed the Annual Charge-Off of such capital expenditure computed as aforesaid, then and in such event, the Annual Charge-Off shall be increased to an amount equal to the Projected Annual Savings; and in such circumstances, the increased Annual Charge-Off (in the amount of the Projected Annual Savings) shall be made for such period of time as it would take to fully amortize the cost of the capital item in question, together with interest thereon at the Capital Interest Rate as aforesaid, in equal monthly payments, each in the amount of one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Projected Annual Savings, with such payments being applied first to interest and the balance to principal.
PAGE 18
2. Useful Life. Useful Life shall be reasonably determined by Landlord in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices in effect at the time of acquisition of the capital item
3. Capital Interest Rate. Capital Interest Rate shall be defined as an annual rate of either one percentage point over the AA Bond rate (Standard & Poors corporate composite or, if unavailable, its equivalent) as reported in the financial press at the time the capital expenditure is made or, if the capital item is acquired through third-party financing, then the actual (including fluctuating) rate paid by Landlord in financing the acquisition of such capital item.
(h) Audit Right. Provided there is no Event of Default nor any event which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute an Event of Default, Tenant may, upon at least sixty (60) days prior written notice, inspect or audit Landlords records relating to Operating Costs for any periods of time within the previous fiscal year before the audit or inspection. However, no audit or inspection shall extend to periods of time before the Term Commencement Date. If Tenant fails to object to the calculation of Tenants Share of Operating Costs on the Year-End Statement within ninety (90) days after such statement has been delivered to Tenant and/or fails to complete any such audit or inspection within two hundred forty (240) days after receipt of the Year End Statement, then Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to the calculation of Tenants Share of Operating Costs for the year in question and the calculation thereof as set forth on such statement shall be final. Tenants audit or inspection shall be conducted only at Landlords offices or the offices of Landlords property manager during business hours reasonably designated by Landlord. Tenant shall pay the cost of such audit or inspection. Tenant may not conduct an inspection or have an audit performed more than once during any fiscal year. If, after such inspection or audit is made, it is finally determined or agreed that that an error was made in the calculation of Tenants Share of Operating Costs previously charged to Tenant, then, Tenant may credit the difference against the next installment of additional rent on account of Operating Costs due hereunder, except that if such difference is determined after the end of the Term, Landlord shall refund such difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such determination to the extent that such difference exceeds any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord. If, after such inspection or audit is made, it is finally determined or agreed that there was an underpayment by Tenant, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent hereunder, any underpayment of any such costs, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice therefor. Tenant shall maintain the results of any such audit or inspection confidential and shall not be permitted to use any third party to perform such audit or inspection: (A) which is not compensated on a contingency fee basis or in any other manner which is dependent upon the results of such audit or inspection, and (B) which refuses to execute a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement, whereby it shall agree to maintain the results of such audit or inspection confidential, but subject to commercially reasonable exceptions to such confidentiality. Nothing in the foregoing shall preclude Tenant or its auditor from disclosing any audit or inspection results to third parties, to the extent: (i) required by Legal Requirements, court order, order of governmental authority or pursuant to any requirements or rules of any stock exchange listing, or (ii) in litigation or other dispute resolution proceedings between Landlord and Tenant. The provisions of this Section 5.2(g) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
PAGE 19
5.3 Taxes.
(a) Taxes shall mean the real estate taxes and other taxes, levies and assessments imposed upon the Building and the Land, and upon any personal property of Landlord used in the operation thereof, or on Landlords interest therein or such personal property; charges, fees and assessments for transit, housing, police, fire or other services or purported benefits to the Building and the Land (including without limitation any mandatory community preservation assessments); service or user payments in lieu of taxes; and any and all other taxes, levies, betterments, assessments and charges arising from the ownership, leasing, operation, use or occupancy of the Building and the Land, which are or shall be imposed by federal, state, county, municipal or other governmental authorities. In determining the amount of Taxes for any year, the amount of special assessments to be included shall be limited to the amount of the installment of such special assessment (plus any interest payable thereon) required to be paid during such year had Landlord elected to have such special assessment paid over the maximum period of time permitted by law. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all references to Taxes for a particular year shall be deemed to refer to Taxes levied or assessed with respect to such year without regard to when such taxes are paid or payable. Taxes shall be adjusted to take into account any abatement or refund thereof paid to the Landlord by the taxing authorities in accordance with Sections 5.3(e) and 5.3(f) below. The following are specifically excluded from taxes: penalties or interest or other charges for late payments of taxes, any income, personal property, excess profits, gross receipts, margin, estate, single business, inheritance, succession, transfer, gift, franchise, corporate, capital tax or assessment levied or assessed against Landlord or real property taxes and assessments applicable to any undeveloped portion of the Building being held for future development or any connection, capacity, turn-on, impact or any initial construction of or the initial construction of or to the Building; provided, however, that any of the same and any other tax, excise, fee, levy, charge or assessment, however described, that may in the future be levied or assessed as a substitute for, any tax, levy or assessment which would otherwise constitute Taxes, whether or not now customary or in the contemplation of the parties on the Execution Date of this Lease, shall constitute Taxes, but only to the extent calculated as if the Building and the Land were the only real estate owned by Landlord. The Landlord shall pay, or cause to be paid, before the same become delinquent, all Taxes. From and after substantial completion of any occupiable improvements constructed as part of a Future Development, as defined in Section 2.2, if such improvements are not separately assessed, Landlord shall reasonably allocate Taxes between the Building and such improvements and the land area associated with the same. Taxes shall not include any inheritance, estate, succession, gift, franchise, rental, income or profit tax, capital stock tax, capital levy or excise, or any income taxes arising out of or related to the ownership and operation of the Building and the Land. The parties acknowledge that after the Building is assessed by the Town of Lexington as a separate Unit under the Condominium, the real estate taxes payable to the Town of Lexington will be determined by the separate tax bill issued by the Town of Lexington. Since, as of the Execution Date, the Building and the Land constitute a part of the Condominium Land, Taxes shall, with respect to such time period, if any, during the Term of the Lease prior to the time that a separate tax bill is issued for the Building as a separate unit under the Condominium, Taxes shall be reasonably allocated by Landlord between the Building and the Land and the balance of the Condominium Land and other improvements on the Condominium Land.
PAGE 20
(b) Tax Period shall be any fiscal/tax period in respect of which Taxes are due and payable to the appropriate governmental taxing authority (i.e., as mandated by the governmental taxing authority), any portion of which period occurs during the Term of this Lease.
(c) Payment of Taxes. Commencing as of the Term Commencement Date and continuing thereafter throughout the remainder of the Term of the Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, Tenants Share of Taxes relating to or allocable to the Building and Tenants Share of Taxes relating to or allocable to the Land. Landlord may make a good faith estimate of the Taxes to be due by Tenant for any Tax Period or part thereof during the Term, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the Term Commencement Date and on the first (1st) day of each calendar month thereafter, an amount equal to Tenants Share of Taxes for such Tax Period or part thereof divided by the number of months therein. Landlord may estimate and re-estimate Tenants Share of Taxes and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to Tenant. Thereafter, the monthly installments of Tenants Share of Taxes shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so that, by the end of the Tax Period in question, Tenant shall have paid all of Tenants Share of Taxes as estimated by Landlord. Any amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment as herein provided when actual Taxes are available for each Tax Period. If the total of such monthly remittances is greater than Tenants Share of Taxes actually due for such Tax Period, then, Tenant may credit the difference against the next installment of additional rent on account of Taxes due hereunder, except that if such difference is determined after the end of the Term, Landlord shall refund such difference to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such determination to the extent that such difference exceeds any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord. If the total of such remittances is less than Tenants Share of Taxes actually due for such Tax Period, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord, as additional rent hereunder, within thirty (30) days of Tenants receipt of an invoice therefor. Landlords estimate for the next Tax Period shall be based upon actual Taxes for the prior Tax Period plus a reasonable adjustment based upon estimated increases in Taxes. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a copy of each Tax bill received by Landlord within ten (10) days after Landlords receipt of such Tax bill; provided however, that in no event shall Landlords failure to timely deliver any Tax bill de deemed to be a default by Landlord in its obligations hereunder or be considered to be a waiver of Landlords right to receive payment from Tenant of Tenants Share of the Taxes imposed pursuant to such Tax bill. The provisions of this Section 5.3(c) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
(d) Effect of Abatements. Appropriate credit against Taxes shall be given for any refund obtained by reason of a reduction in any Taxes by the assessors or the administrative, judicial or other governmental agency responsible therefor after deduction of Landlords expenditures for reasonable out of pocket and documented legal fees and for other reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining the Tax refund
(e) Abatement Process. If Tenant is then leasing space in the Building containing at least fifty (50%) percent of the rentable area of the Building so request in writing by written notice to Landlord at least ten (10) business days prior to the last day for applying for an abatement of Taxes payable by Landlord with respect to any fiscal year, then either: (i) Landlord shall (unless Landlord has previously applied for abatement with respect such fiscal year) apply for, and diligently prosecute, an abatement of Taxes for such fiscal year, or
PAGE 21
(ii) Landlord shall permit Tenant, at its sole expense, to apply for an abatement of Taxes for such fiscal year. If Landlord elects to allow Tenant to apply for an abatement of Taxes for a fiscal year, then:
(i) Landlord agrees to cooperate with the Tenant, in such manner as Tenant may reasonably request, but at no expense to Landlord, including Landlords agreement to sign all necessary instruments in connection with such application or appeal, provided Landlord deems the same appropriate in its reasonable discretion.
(ii) Upon the request of Tenant, and if required to preserve the right to challenge such Taxes, Landlord will pay all Taxes under protest or in such other manner as will preserve the right to challenge such Taxes.
(iii) It shall be a condition to the right of Tenant to apply for an abatement with respect to any fiscal year, that Tenant has paid its respective shares of all Taxes due for such fiscal year.
(f) Landlord will reimburse Tenant for its respective share of any refund of Taxes received as a result of any tax contest minus their respective share of expenses incurred by Landlord in order to obtain the refund.
(g) Part Years. If the Term Commencement Date or the Expiration Date occurs in the middle of a Tax Period, Tenant shall be liable for only that portion of the Taxes, as the case may be, with respect to such Tax Period within the Term.
5.4 Late Payments.
(a) Any payment of Rent due hereunder not paid within five (5) business days after the same is due shall bear interest for each month or fraction thereof from the due date until paid in full at the rate of ten (10%) percent per annum, or at any applicable lesser maximum legally permissible rate for debts of this nature (the Lease Interest Rate).
(b) Additionally, if Tenant fails to make any payment within five (5) business days after the due date therefor, Landlord may charge Tenant a fee (Late Fee), which shall constitute liquidated damages, equal to One Thousand and NO/100 Dollars ($1,000.00) for each such late payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees that no Late Fee shall be due with respect to any payment due from Tenant during any calendar year, unless an Initial Late Fee Event has previously occurred during such twelve (12) month period. An Initial Late Fee Event shall mean any failure by Tenant to make a payment when due, which failure is not cured on or before the date five (5) business days after Landlord gives Tenant written notice that such payment is past due. Landlord agrees to waive the Late Fee with respect to the Initial Late Fee Event which occurs in any calendar year.
(c) For each Tenant payment check to Landlord that is returned by a bank for any reason, Tenant shall pay a returned check charge equal to the amount as shall be customarily charged by Landlords bank at the time.
PAGE 22
(d) Money paid by Tenant to Landlord shall be applied to Tenants account in the following order: first, to any unpaid additional rent, including without limitation late charges, returned check charges, legal fees and/or court costs chargeable to Tenant hereunder; and then to unpaid Base Rent.
(e) The parties agree that the late charge referenced in Section 5.4(b) represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of any late payment by Tenant, and the payment of late charges and interest are distinct and separate in that the payment of interest is to compensate Landlord for the use of Landlords money by Tenant, while the payment of late charges is to compensate Landlord for Landlords processing, administrative and other costs incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenants delinquent payments. Acceptance of a late charge or interest shall not constitute a waiver of Tenants default with respect to the overdue amount or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or at law or in equity now or hereafter in effect.
5.5 No Offset; Independent Covenants; Waiver. Rent shall be paid without notice or demand, and without setoff, counterclaim, defense, abatement, suspension, deferment, reduction or deduction, except as expressly provided herein. TENANT WAIVES ALL RIGHTS (I) TO ANY ABATEMENT, SUSPENSION, DEFERMENT, REDUCTION OR DEDUCTION OF OR FROM RENT (EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.5 OF THE LEASE), AND (II) TO QUIT, TERMINATE OR SURRENDER THIS LEASE OR THE PREMISES OR ANY PART THEREOF, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN. TENANT HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE OBLIGATIONS OF TENANT HEREUNDER SHALL BE SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS, THAT RENT SHALL CONTINUE TO BE PAYABLE IN ALL EVENTS AND THAT THE OBLIGATIONS OF TENANT HEREUNDER SHALL CONTINUE UNAFFECTED, UNLESS THE REQUIREMENT TO PAY OR PERFORM THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN TERMINATED PURSUANT TO AN EXPRESS PROVISION OF THIS LEASE. LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE INDEPENDENT NATURE OF THE OBLIGATIONS OF TENANT HEREUNDER REPRESENTS FAIR, REASONABLE, AND ACCEPTED COMMERCIAL PRACTICE WITH RESPECT TO THE TYPE OF PROPERTY SUBJECT TO THIS LEASE, AND THAT THIS AGREEMENT IS THE PRODUCT OF FREE AND INFORMED NEGOTIATION DURING WHICH BOTH LANDLORD AND TENANT WERE REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL SKILLED IN NEGOTIATING AND DRAFTING COMMERCIAL LEASES IN MASSACHUSETTS, AND THAT THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS AND AGREEMENTS CONTAINED HEREIN ARE MADE WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLDING IN WESSON V. LEONE ENTERPRISES, INC., 437 MASS. 708 (2002). SUCH ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, AGREEMENTS AND WAIVERS BY TENANT ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO LANDLORD ENTERING INTO THIS LEASE.
5.6 Survival. Any obligations under this Section 5 which shall not have been paid at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term shall survive such expiration or earlier termination and shall be paid when and as the amount of same shall be determined and be due.

6. | INTENTIONALLY OMITTED. |
7. | LETTER OF CREDIT/CASH SECURITY DEPOSIT |
7.1 Amount. Within fifteen (15) business days following the Execution Date of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver either (i) cash in the amount (the Security Amount) specified in the Lease Summary Sheet (the Cash Security Deposit), which shall be held by Landlord in accordance with Section 7.5 below, or (ii) an irrevocable letter of credit to Landlord which shall be (a) in the amount (the Security Amount) specified in the Lease Summary Sheet, (b) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 5; (c) issued by a bank with a rating of A or better and otherwise reasonably acceptable to Landlord upon which presentment may be made in Boston, Massachusetts; and (d) for a term of one (1) year, subject to extension in accordance with the terms hereof (the Letter of Credit). Tenants failure timely to deliver either the Cash Security Deposit or the Letter of Credit in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be an Event of Default by Tenant as set forth in Section 20.1(n) of this Lease. The Letter of Credit shall be held by Landlord, without liability for interest, as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease by the Tenant to be kept and performed during the Term. In no event shall the Letter of Credit be deemed to be a prepayment of Rent nor shall it be considered a measure of liquidated damages. Unless the Letter of Credit is automatically renewing, at least thirty (30) days prior to the maturity date of the Letter of Credit (or any replacement Letter of Credit), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit which shall have a maturity date no earlier than the next anniversary of the Commencement Date or one (1) year from its date of delivery to Landlord, whichever is later.
7.2 Application of Proceeds of Letter of Credit. Upon an Event of Default, or if any proceeding shall be instituted by or against Tenant pursuant to any of the provisions of any Act of Congress or State law relating to bankruptcy, reorganizations, arrangements, compositions or other relief from creditors (and, in the case of any proceeding instituted against it, if Tenant shall fail to have such proceedings dismissed within thirty (30) days) or if Tenant is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent as a result of any such proceeding, Landlord at its sole option may draw down all or a part of the Letter of Credit. The balance of any Letter of Credit cash proceeds (after applying the amount drawn to cure Tenants default and/or to Landlords damages arising therefrom) shall be held in accordance with Section 7.5 below. Should the entire Letter of Credit, or any portion thereof, be drawn down by Landlord, Tenant shall, upon the written demand of Landlord, deliver a replacement Letter of Credit in the amount drawn, and Tenants failure to do so within ten (10) days after receipt of such written demand shall constitute an additional Event of Default hereunder. Upon delivery of such replacement Letter of Credit, Landlord shall return to Tenant the balance of any Letter of Credit cash proceeds that are being held in accordance with Section 7.5 below. The application of all or any part of the cash proceeds of the Letter of Credit to any obligation or default of Tenant under this Lease shall not deprive Landlord of any other rights or remedies Landlord may have nor shall such application by Landlord constitute a waiver by Landlord.
7.3 Transfer of Letter of Credit. In the event that Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises, Tenant shall upon notice from Landlord, deliver to Landlord an amendment to the Letter of Credit or a replacement Letter of Credit naming Landlords successor as the beneficiary thereof. If Tenant fails to deliver such amendment or replacement within ten (10) days after
PAGE 24
written notice from Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to draw down the entire amount of the Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof in accordance with Section 7.5 below. Landlord shall pay the fee charged by the issuer of the Letter of Credit in connection with any such transfer, provided, however, in connection with the first such transfer, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, an amount equal to such fee charged by the issuer, which payment shall be made within thirty (30) days after demand therefor.
7.4 Credit of Issuer of Letter of Credit. In event of a material adverse change in the financial position of any bank or institution which has issued the Letter of Credit or any replacement Letter of Credit hereunder, Landlord reserves the right to require that Tenant change the issuing bank or institution to another bank or institution reasonably approved by Landlord. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord, which notice shall include the basis for Landlords reasonable belief that there has been a material adverse change in the financial position of the issuer of the Letter of Credit, replace the then-outstanding letter of credit with a like Letter of Credit from another bank or institution approved by Landlord.
7.5 Cash Proceeds of Letter of Credit. Landlord shall hold the Cash Security Deposit and/or the balance of proceeds remaining after a draw on the Letter of Credit (each hereinafter referred to as the Security Deposit) as security for Tenants performance of all its Lease obligations. After an Event of Default, Landlord may apply the Security Deposit, or any part thereof, to Landlords damages without prejudice to any other Landlord remedy. Landlord has no obligation to pay interest on the Security Deposit and may co-mingle the Security Deposit with Landlords funds. If Landlord conveys its interest under this Lease, the Security Deposit, or any part not applied previously, shall be turned over to the grantee in which case Tenant shall look solely to the grantee for the proper application and return of the Security Deposit.
7.6 Return of Security Deposit or Letter of Credit. Should Tenant comply with all of such terms, covenants and conditions and promptly pay all sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, the Security Deposit and/or Letter of Credit or the remaining proceeds therefrom, as applicable, shall be returned to Tenant within forty-five (45) days after the end of the Term, less any portion thereof which may have been utilized by Landlord to cure any default or applied to any actual damage suffered by Landlord.

10.5. Service Interruptions.
(a) Abatement of Rent. In the event that: (i) there shall be an interruption, curtailment or suspension of any service or failure to perform any obligation required to be provided or performed by Landlord pursuant to Sections 9 and/or 10 (and no reasonably equivalent alternative service or supply is provided by Landlord) that shall materially interfere with Tenants use and enjoyment of the Premises, or any portion thereof (any such event, a Service Interruption), and (ii) such Service Interruption shall continue for five (5) consecutive business days following receipt by Landlord of written notice (the Service Interruption Notice) from Tenant describing such Service Interruption (Abatement Service Interruption Cure Period), and (iii) such Service Interruption shall not have been caused by an act or omission of Tenant or Tenants agents, employees, contractors or invitees (an event that satisfies the foregoing conditions (i)-(iii) being referred to hereinafter as a Material Service Interruption) then, Tenant, subject to the next following sentence, shall be entitled to an equitable abatement of Base Rent, Operating Costs and Taxes based on the nature and duration of the Material Service Interruption and the area of the Premises affected, for any and all days following the Material Service Interruption Cure Period that both (x) the Material Service Interruption is continuing and (y) Tenant does not use such affected areas of the Premises for a bona fide business purpose. The Abatement Service Interruption Cure Period shall be extended by reason of any delays in Landlords ability to cure the Service Interruption in question caused by Landlords Force Majeure, provided however, that in no event shall the Abatement Service Interruption Cure Period with respect to any Service Interruption be longer than twelve (12) consecutive business days after Landlord receives the applicable Service Interruption Notice.
(b) Tenants Termination Right. In the event that: (i) a Service Interruption occurs, and (ii) such Service Interruption continues for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days after Landlord receives a Service Interruption Notice with respect to such Service Interruption (Termination Service Interruption Cure Period), and (iii) such Service Interruption shall not have been caused by an act or omission of Tenant or Tenants agents, employees, contractors or invitees, and (iv) for so long as Tenant ceases to use the affected portion of the Premises during such Service Interruption, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving a written termination notice to Landlord after the expiration of the Termination Service Interruption Cure Period.

The Termination Service Interruption Cure Period and the Post-Termination Notice Cure Period shall each be extended by reason of any delays in Landlords ability to cure the Service Interruption in question caused by Landlords Force Majeure, provided however, that in no event shall the aggregate extension of the Termination Service Interruption Cure Period and the Post-Termination Notice Cure Period by reason of Landlords Force Majeure exceed sixty (60) days.

11. | ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS BY TENANT |
11.1 Landlords Consent Required. Tenant shall not make any alterations, decorations, installations, removals, additions or improvements (collectively, Alterations) in or to the Premises without Landlords prior written approval of the contractor(s), written plans and specifications (Tenants Plans) and a time schedule therefor. Such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except that Landlord may withhold its consent on the basis of Landlords bona fide business judgment with respect to: (i) aesthetic matters relating to Alterations which are visible from the exterior of the Building, and (ii) Alterations affecting the exterior of the Building. Landlord reserves the right to require that Tenant use Landlords preferred vendor(s) for any Alterations that involve roof penetrations, alarm tie-ins, sprinklers, fire alarm and other life safety equipment. Tenant shall not make any amendments or additions to plans and specifications approved by Landlord without Landlords prior written consent. Tenant shall be responsible for all elements of the design of Tenants plans (including, without limitation, compliance with Legal Requirements, functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the Premises and the placement of Tenants furniture, appliances and equipment), and Landlords approval of Tenants plans shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for such design. In seeking Landlords approval, Tenant shall provide Landlord, at least ten (10) business days in advance of any proposed construction, with plans, specifications, bid proposals, certified stamped engineering drawings and calculations by Tenants engineer of record or architect of record, (including connections to the Buildings structural system, modifications to the Buildings envelope, non-structural penetrations in slabs or walls, and modifications or tie-ins to life safety systems), work contracts, requests for laydown areas and such other information concerning the nature and cost of the alterations as Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord shall, within five (5) business days after Landlord receives a written request (Tenants Plan Approval Request) from Tenant requesting Landlords approval of Tenants Plans, whether Landlord approves or objects to Tenants Plans and shall specify in reasonable detail the manner, if any, in which Tenants Plans are unacceptable. Tenants Plan Approval Request shall include Tenants Plans. If Landlord fails to respond to Tenants Plan Approval Request in writing, as required above, within such five (5) business day period, then Landlord shall be deemed to have approved Tenants Plan Approval Request, but only if Tenants Plan Approval Request includes a statement, in 14 POINT BOLD TYPE, REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 11.1 AND ADVISING LANDLORD THAT, IF LANDLORD FAILS RESPOND TO TENANTS PLAN APPROVAL REQUEST WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER LANDLORDS RECEIPT OF TENANTS PLAN APPROVAL REQUEST, THEN TENANTS PLAN APPROVAL REQUEST SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE APPROVED. Landlord shall have no liability or responsibility for any claim, injury or damage alleged to have been caused by the particular materials (whether building standard or non-building standard), appliances or equipment selected by Tenant in connection with any work performed by or on behalf of Tenant. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, all Alterations shall be done at Tenants sole cost and expense and at such times and in such manner as Landlord may from time to time reasonably designate. Tenant shall, on or before the expiration or prior termination of the Term of the Lease and at Tenants sole cost and expense: (i) remove all of its equipment in the so-called GMP Suite space located in a portion of
PAGE 30
the Phase I Premises (as shown on Exhibit 1A), (ii) remove all equipment located in the dedicated mechanical rooms within the Premises and repair any damage to the Premises caused by the installation, repair or removal of such equipment, and (iii) any exterior modifications to the Building made at the request of Tenant and approved by Landlord, which approval Landlord shall have the right to withhold in its sole discretion) and restore the exterior of the Building to the condition which it would have been but for such modifications (Tenant expressly agreeing, however, that Landlord shall have the right, at Landlords sole election, to perform such restoration of exterior modifications at Tenants sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease (including, without limitation, the immediately preceding sentence and Section 21 of the Lease), Tenant shall not be required to remove any of the following (collectively Alterations which Will Remain): (i) Landlords Work, or (ii) Alterations including performed in preparing the Phase II Premises for Tenants occupancy to the extent that they are similar to Landlords Work. In addition, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that Tenant shall have no right to remove any chemical fume hoods, lab casework, compressors, vacuum systems, and purified water systems from the Premises and that such equipment shall remain in the Premises after the expiration or prior termination of the term of the Lease. If Tenant shall make any Alterations other than Alterations which Will Remain, then Landlord may elect by written notice to Tenant given at the time of such approval to require Tenant, at or before the expiration or sooner termination of the Term of this Lease, to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to the Alterations. Tenant shall provide Landlord with reproducible record drawings (in CAD format) of all Alterations within sixty (60) days after completion thereof.
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, Tenant shall have the right, without obtaining the prior consent of Landlord but upon notice to Landlord given ten (10) days prior to the commencement of any work (which notice shall specify the nature of the work in reasonable detail), to make alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises where:
(i) the same are within the interior of the Premises within the Building, and do not affect the exterior of the Premises and the Building (including no signs on windows); and
(ii) the same do not affect the roof, any structural element of the Building, the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning and fire protection systems of the Building.
11.2 After-Hours. Landlord and Tenant recognize that to the extent Tenant elects to perform some or all of the Alterations during times other than normal construction hours (i.e., Monday-Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., excluding holidays), Landlord may need to make arrangements to have supervisory personnel on site. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows: Tenant shall give Landlord at least two (2) business days prior written notice of any time outside of normal construction hours when Tenant intends to perform any Alterations (the After-Hours Work). Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the cost of Landlords supervisory personnel overseeing the After-Hours Work. In addition, if construction during normal construction hours unreasonably disturbs other tenants of the Building, in Landlords reasonable discretion, Landlord may require Tenant to stop the performance of Alterations during normal construction hours and to perform the same after hours, subject to the foregoing requirement to pay for the cost of Landlords supervisory personnel.
PAGE 31
11.3 Harmonious Relations. Tenant agrees that it will not, either directly or indirectly, use any contractors if their use will create any difficulty, whether in the nature of a labor dispute or otherwise, with other contractors and/or labor engaged by Tenant or Landlord or others in the construction, maintenance and/or operation of the Building, the Property or any part thereof. In the event of any such difficulty, upon Landlords written request, Tenant shall cause all contractors, mechanics or laborers causing such difficulty to leave the Property immediately.
11.4 Liens. No Alterations shall be undertaken by Tenant until (i) Tenant has made provision for written waiver of liens from all contractors providing services in excess of $25,000 for such Alteration, and (ii) with respect to any Alterations made by Tenant, the cost of which exceed $250,000, Tenant has procured appropriate surety payment and performance bonds (Bonds) which shall name Landlord as an additional obligee and has filed lien bond(s) (in jurisdictions where available) on behalf of such contractors. Any mechanics lien filed against the Premises or the Building for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to, Tenant shall be discharged by Tenant within ten (10) business days thereafter, at Tenants expense by filing the bond required by law or otherwise.
11.5 General Requirements. Unless Landlord and Tenant otherwise agree in writing, Tenant shall (a) procure or cause others to procure on its behalf all necessary permits before undertaking any Alterations in the Premises (and provide copies thereof to Landlord); (b) perform all of such Alterations in a good and workmanlike manner, employing materials of good quality and in compliance with Landlords construction rules and regulations, all insurance requirements of this Lease, Legal Requirements, and the Building Standards set forth in Exhibit 3-5 of this Lease; and (c) defend, indemnify and hold the Landlord Parties harmless from and against any and all Claims occasioned by or growing out of such Alterations, except to the extent the same results from the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlords managing agent.
12. | SIGNAGE |
12.1 Restrictions. Tenant shall have the right, at Tenants expense, to install Building standard signage identifying Tenants business at the entrance to the Premises. In addition, Tenants name shall be listed in the Building directory, if any. The cost of the initial installation of all such signage shall be at Landlords cost, and any changes shall be at Tenants cost. Subject to the foregoing, and subject to Section 12.2 below, Tenant shall not place or suffer to be placed or maintained on the exterior of the Premises, or any part of the interior visible from the exterior thereof, any sign, banner, advertising matter or any other thing of any kind (including, without limitation, any hand-lettered advertising), and shall not place or maintain any decoration, letter or advertising matter on the glass of any window or door of the Premises without first obtaining Landlords written approval. No signs may be put on or in any window or elsewhere if visible from the exterior of the Building.
12.2 Monument Signage. So long as (w) there is no Event of Default of Tenant, (x) Tenant has not assigned the Lease to an entity other than an Affiliated Entity or a Successor, (y)
PAGE 32
Tenant is leasing at least 15,000 rentable square feet in the Building, and (z) the Lease is in full force and effect (the Monument Signage Conditions), then, subject to the provisions of this Section 12.2, Landlord shall, at Tenants cost and expense (subject to Tenants right to apply Landlords Initial Contribution towards such cost and expense), to install a Tenant identification sign (Tenants Monument Sign) on the monument to be constructed by Landlord on the Property. Such monument shall be in the location shown on Exhibit 2A, and shall be a common monument (i.e. other tenant(s) in the Building may have identification signage installed on such monument). Tenants Monument Sign shall be subject to Landlords prior written approval of a plan and specifications for Tenants Monument Sign. Landlord agrees that it will not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition such approval, provided that Tenants Monument Sign confirms to Landlords signage standards for such monument. The right to the Tenants Monument Signage granted pursuant to this Section 12.2 is personal to Tenant, and may not be exercised by any occupant, subtenant, or other assignee of Tenant, other than an Affiliated Entity or Successor (the parties hereby agreeing that Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of any change in Tenants Monument Signage).
13. | ASSIGNMENT, MORTGAGING AND SUBLETTING |
13.1 Landlords Consent Required. Tenant shall not mortgage or encumber this Lease in whole or in part whether at one time or at intervals, by operation of law or otherwise. Except as expressly otherwise set forth herein, Tenant shall not, without Landlords prior written consent, assign, sublet, license or transfer this Lease or the Premises in whole or in part whether by changes in the ownership or control of Tenant, or any direct or indirect owner of Tenant, whether at one time or at intervals, by sale or transfer of stock, partnership or beneficial interests, operation of law or otherwise, or permit the occupancy of all or any portion of the Premises by any person or entity other than Tenants employees (each of the foregoing, a Transfer). Any purported Transfer made without Landlords consent, if required hereunder, shall be void and confer no rights upon any third person, provided that if there is a Transfer, Landlord may collect rent from the transferee without waiving the prohibition against Transfers, accepting the transferee, or releasing Tenant from full performance under this Lease. No Transfer shall relieve Tenant of its primary obligation as party Tenant hereunder, nor shall it reduce or increase Landlords obligations under this Lease.
13.2 Landlords Recapture Right. Subject to Section 13.6 below, Tenant shall, prior to offering or advertising the Premises or any portion thereof for a Transfer, give a written notice (the Recapture Offer) to Landlord which: (i) states that Tenant desires to make a Transfer, (ii) identifies the affected portion of the Premises (the Recapture Premises), (iii) identifies the period of time (the Recapture Period) during which Tenant proposes to sublet the Recapture Premises, or indicates that Tenant proposes to assign its interest in this Lease, and (iv) offers to Landlord to terminate this Lease with respect to the Recapture Premises (in the case of a proposed assignment of Tenants interest in this Lease or a subletting for the remainder of the term of this Lease) or to suspend the Term for the Recapture Period (i.e. the Term with respect to the Recapture Premises shall be terminated during the Recapture Period and Tenants rental obligations shall be proportionately reduced). Landlord shall have the right, to accept such Recapture Offer, by giving written notice (Recapture Notice) to Tenant not later than the date thirty (30) days after Landlord receives such Recapture Offer. If Landlord timely gives a Recapture Notice, then the Term of the Lease with respect to the Recapture Premises shall
PAGE 33
terminate as of the Recapture Termination Date as if the Recapture Termination Date were the Expiration Date of the Term of the Lease, or the Term of the Lease with respect to the Recapture Premises shall be suspended for the Recapture Term, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have the right, by written notice (Rescission Notice) to Landlord on or before the date ten (10) days after Landlord gives a Recapture Notice to Tenant accepting such Recapture Offer, to rescind such Recapture Offer, provided however, that if Tenant so rescinds a Recapture Offer, then Tenant shall have no right to give Landlord a subsequent Recapture Offer (i.e., and no right to enter into any sublease or assignment other than pursuant to Section 13.7 below) during the six (6) month period immediately following the date that Tenant such Rescission Notice to Landlord.
13.3 Standard of Consent to Transfer. If Landlord does not timely give written notice to Tenant accepting a Recapture Offer or declines to accept the same, then Landlord agrees that, subject to the provisions of this Section 13, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to a Transfer on the terms contained in the Recapture Notice to an entity which will use the Premises for the Permitted Uses and, in Landlords reasonable opinion: (a) has a business reputation compatible with the operation of a first-class combination laboratory, research, development and office building; and (b) the intended use of such entity does not violate any restrictive use provisions then in effect with respect to space in the Building (Landlord hereby agreeing that Landlord shall, within ten (10) days of Landlords receipt of a written request therefore from Tenant, advise Tenant of any such restrictive use provisions then in effect); and (c) with respect to any proposed assignment of the Lease only (as distinguished from any other Transfer, including without limitation a sublease), has a tangible net worth and other financial indicators sufficient to meet the assignees obligations under the Lease, taking into account the fact that Tenant remains fully liable for Tenants obligations under the Lease. If Landlord consents to a Transfer pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13, then the Landlord, Tenant and the subtenant or assignee in question, as the case may be, shall enter into a Consent in the form attached as Exhibit 7-1 or Exhibit 7-2, as applicable.
13.4 Listing Confers no Rights. The listing of any name other than that of Tenant, whether on the doors of the Premises or on the Building directory, or otherwise, shall not operate to vest in any such other person, firm or corporation any right or interest in this Lease or in the Premises or be deemed to effect or evidence any consent of Landlord, it being expressly understood that any such listing is a privilege extended by Landlord revocable at will by written notice to Tenant.
13.5 Profits In Connection with Transfers. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of receipt thereof, pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of any rent, sum or other consideration to be paid or given in connection with any Transfer, either initially or over time, after deducting reasonable actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Tenant in connection with such Transfer, including, without limitation, legal, brokerage, design, construction, and incentives paid for by Tenant in connection with such Transfer, in excess of Rent hereunder as if such amount were originally called for by the terms of this Lease as additional rent.
13.6 Prohibited Transfers. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Lease, Tenant shall have no right to make a Transfer unless on both (i) the date on which Tenant notifies Landlord of its intention to enter into a Transfer and (ii) the date on which such Transfer
PAGE 34
is to take effect, Tenant is not in default of any of its obligations under this Lease beyond the applicable cure period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant agrees that in no event shall Tenant make a Transfer to (a) any government agency; (b) any tenant, subtenant or occupant of other space in the Building; or (c) any entity with whom Landlord shall have engaged in material negotiations for space in the Property in the three (3) months immediately preceding such proposed Transfer, as evidenced by Landlords written correspondence with such entity.

Tenant Property Insurance and Landlord Property Insurance are referred to collectively herein as Property Insurance.
15. | CASUALTY; TAKING |
15.1 Damage. If the Premises are damaged in whole or part because of fire or other casualty (Casualty), or if the Premises are subject to a taking in connection with the exercise of any power of eminent domain, condemnation, or purchase under threat or in lieu thereof (any of the foregoing, a Taking), then unless this Lease is terminated in accordance with Section 15.2 below, Landlord shall restore the Building and/or the Premises to substantially the same condition as existed immediately following completion of Tenant Improvement Work, or in the event of a partial Taking which affects the Building and the Premises, restore the remainder of the Building and the Premises not so Taken to substantially the same condition as is reasonably feasible. If, in Landlords reasonable judgment, any element of the Tenant-Insured Improvements can more effectively be restored as an integral part of Landlords restoration of the Building or the Premises, such restoration shall also be made by Landlord, but at Tenants sole cost and expense. Subject to rights of Mortgagees, Tenant Delays, Legal Requirements then in existence and to delays for adjustment of insurance proceeds or Taking awards, as the case may be, and instances of Landlords Force Majeure, Landlord shall substantially complete such restoration within one (1) year after Landlords receipt of all required permits therefor with respect to substantial reconstruction of at least 50% of the Building, or, within one hundred eighty (180) days after Landlords receipt of all required permits therefor in the case of restoration of less than 50% of the Building. Upon substantial completion of such restoration by Landlord, Tenant shall use diligent efforts to complete restoration of any Alterations performed by Tenant after the initial Tenant Improvement Work to substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to such Casualty or Taking, as the case may be, as soon as reasonably possible. Tenant agrees to cooperate with Landlord in such manner as Landlord may reasonably request to assist Landlord in collecting insurance proceeds due in connection with any Casualty which affects the Premises or the Building. In no event shall Landlord be required to expend more than the Net (hereinafter defined) insurance proceeds Landlord receives for damage to the Premises and/or the Building or the Net Taking award attributable to the Premises and/or the Building. Net means the insurance proceeds or Taking award actually paid to Landlord (and not paid over to a Mortgagee in satisfaction of debt) less all costs and expenses, including adjusters and attorneys fees, of obtaining the same. Except as Landlord may elect pursuant to this Section 15.1, under no circumstances shall Landlord be required to repair any damage to, or make any repairs to or replacements of, any Tenant-Insured Improvements.
PAGE 39
15.2 Termination Rights.
(a) Landlords Termination Rights. In the event of a Casualty affecting the Building, Landlord may terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Tenant if:
(i) if the estimated time to complete restoration exceeds one (1) year from the date on which Landlord receives all required permits for such restoration; or
(ii) the cost of repairing the damage caused by such Casualty is not covered by casualty insurance required to be carried by Landlord pursuant to this Lease, and such cost exceeds five (5%) percent of the then replacement cost of the Building.
(b) Tenants Termination Right. If neither party elects to terminate the Lease pursuant to its rights under any other section of the Lease, and Landlord is so required but fails to complete restoration of the Premises within the time frames and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 15.1 above, then Tenant may terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days written notice to Landlord; provided, however, that if Landlord completes such restoration within thirty (30) days after receipt of any such termination notice, such termination notice shall be null and void and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. The remedies set forth in this Section 15.2(b) and in Section 15.2(c) below are Tenants sole and exclusive rights and remedies based upon Landlords failure to complete the restoration of the Premises following a Casualty as set forth herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 15 if the Casualty was caused by the intentional misconduct of any Tenant Party.
(c) Either Party May Terminate. In the case of any Casualty or Taking affecting the Premises occurring during the last twelve (12) months of the Term, then: (i) if such Casualty or Taking results in more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the floor area of the Premises being unsuitable for the Permitted Uses, or (ii) the damage to the Premises is estimated to cost more than $250,000 to restore, then either Landlord or Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days written notice to the other. In addition, if Landlords Mortgagee does not release sufficient insurance proceeds to cover the cost of Landlords restoration obligations, then Landlord shall (i) notify Tenant thereof, and (ii) have the right to terminate this Lease. If Landlord does not terminate this Lease pursuant to the previous sentence and such notice by Landlord does not include an agreement by Landlord to pay for the difference between the cost of such restoration and such released insurance proceeds, then Tenant may terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after such notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 15, in no event may Tenant elect to terminate this Lease hereunder if the Casualty that would otherwise give rise to such right results from the willful misconduct of Tenant, its agents, contractors, or employees.
(d) Automatic Termination. In the case of a Taking of the entire Premises, then this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the date of possession by the Taking authority.
15.3 Rent Abatement. In the event of a Casualty affecting the Premises, there shall be an equitable adjustment of Base Rent, Operating Costs and Taxes based upon the degree to which Tenants ability to conduct its business in the Premises is impaired by reason of such
PAGE 40
Casualty during the following time period: (i) from and after the date of a Casualty, and continuing until the following portions of the repair and restoration work to be performed by Landlord, as set forth above, are substantially completed: (i) any repair and restoration work to be performed by Landlord within the Premises, and (ii) repair and restoration work with respect to the common areas of the Building and the Property to the extent that damage to the common areas of the Property caused by such Casualty affect Tenants use of, or access to, the Premises.
15.4 Taking for Temporary Use. If the Premises are Taken for temporary use, this Lease and Tenants obligations, including, without limitation, the payment of Rent, shall continue. For purposes hereof, a Taking for temporary use shall mean a Taking of ninety (90) days or less.
15.5 Disposition of Awards. Except for any separate award for Tenants movable trade fixtures, relocation expenses, and unamortized leasehold improvements paid for by Tenant (provided that the same may not reduce Landlords award), all Taking awards to Landlord or Tenant shall be Landlords property without Tenants participation, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord Tenants interest, if any, in such award. Tenant may pursue its own claim against the Taking authority.
16. | ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. |
Each party (Responding Party) shall at any time and from time to time upon not less than ten (10) business days prior written notice from the other party (Requesting Party), execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Requesting Party a statement in writing certifying: (i) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), (ii) the dates to which Rent has been paid, (iii) stating, to the Responding Partys knowledge, whether or not the Requesting Party is in default in performance of any covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition contained in this Lease and, if so, specifying each such default, and (iv) to the best of the knowledge of the Responding Party (without the requirement to perform any investigations requiring the assistance of third parties), such other facts relating to the Lease as Requesting Party may reasonably request, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant hereto may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of the Building or of any interest of Landlord therein, any Mortgagee or prospective Mortgagee thereof, any lessor or prospective lessor thereof, any lessee or prospective lessee thereof, any prospective assignee of any mortgage thereof, or any prospective transferee of Tenants interest in the Lease or the Premises, or any portion thereof. Time is of the essence with respect to any such requested certificate, Tenant hereby acknowledging the importance of such certificates in mortgage financing arrangements, prospective sales and the like.

Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to inspect the Premises for compliance with the terms of this Section 17.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any of Tenants Hazardous Materials which Tenant does not properly handle, store or dispose of in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws (hereinafter defined), prudent environmental practice and (with respect to medical waste and so-called biohazard materials) good scientific and medical practice, Tenant shall, upon written notice from Landlord, no longer have the right to bring such material into the Building or the Property until Tenant has demonstrated, to Landlords reasonable satisfaction, that Tenant has implemented programs to thereafter properly handle, store or dispose of such material. In order to induce Landlord to waive its otherwise applicable requirement that Tenant maintain insurance in favor as Landlord against liability arising from the presence of radioactive materials in the Premises, and without limiting the foregoing, Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that at no time during the Term will Tenant bring upon, or permit to be brought upon, the Premises any radioactive materials whatsoever.
17.2 Environmental Laws. For purposes hereof, Environmental Laws shall mean all laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations of any local, state or federal governmental authority having jurisdiction concerning environmental, health and safety matters, including but not limited to any discharge by any of the Tenant Parties into the air, surface water, sewers, soil or groundwater of any Hazardous Material (hereinafter defined) whether within or outside the Premises, including, without limitation (a) the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, 33 U.S.C.

PAGE 42
17.4 Testing. If any Mortgagee or governmental authority requires testing to determine whether there has been any release of Hazardous Materials and such testing is required as a result of the acts or omissions of any of the Tenant Parties, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand, as additional rent, for the reasonable costs thereof, together with interest at the Default Rate until paid in full. Tenant shall execute affidavits, certifications and the like, as may be reasonably requested by Landlord from time to time concerning Tenants best knowledge and belief concerning the presence of Hazardous Materials in or on the Premises, the Building or the Property. In addition to the foregoing, if Landlord reasonably believes that any Hazardous Materials have been released on the Premises in violation of this Lease or any Legal Requirement, Landlord shall have the right to conduct appropriate tests of the Premises or any portion thereof to demonstrate that Hazardous Materials are present or that contamination has occurred due to the acts or omissions of any of the Tenant Parties.

Further, Landlord shall have the right to cause a third party consultant retained by Landlord, at Landlords expense (provided, however, that such costs shall be included in Operating Costs), to review, but not more than once in any calendar year, Tenants lab operations, procedures and permits to ascertain whether or not Tenant is complying with law and adhering to best industry practices.

(a) Tenant hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Landlord Parties harmless from and against any and all Claims against any of the Landlord Parties arising out of contamination of any part of the Property or other adjacent property, to the extent that such contamination arises as a result of: (i) the presence of Hazardous Material in the Premises, the presence of which is caused by any act or omission of any of the Tenant Parties, or (ii) from a breach by Tenant of its obligations under this Section 17. This indemnification of the Landlord Parties by Tenant includes, without limitation, reasonable costs incurred in connection with any investigation of site conditions or any cleanup, remedial, removal or restoration work required by any federal, state or local governmental agency or political subdivision because of Hazardous Material present in the soil or ground water on or under the Building based upon the circumstances identified in the first sentence of this Section 17.5.

The Landlord HM Cure Period shall be defined as follows: (1) with respect to Landlord Representation HM, there shall be no Landlord HM Cure Period and the Landlord HM Abatement Period shall commence immediately upon receipt by Landlord of written notice from Tenant describing such Landlord Representation HM and its effect on Tenants use of the Premises, and (2) with respect to Landlord Breach HM, the Landlord HM Cure Period shall be five (5) consecutive business days following receipt by Landlord of written notice (the Landlord HM Notice) from Tenant describing such Landlord Breach HM and its effect on Tenants use of the Premises; provided however that the Landlord HM Cure Period with respect to any Landlord Breach HM shall be extended by reason of any delays in Landlords ability to remediate such Landlord HM Event because of Landlords Force Majeure, provided however, that in no event shall the Landlord HM Cure Period with respect to any Landlord Breach HM be longer than ten (10) consecutive business days after Landlord receives the applicable Landlord HM Notice.
(c) Landlord Remediation. If Hazardous Materials are discovered in, on or under the Property which are not in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws, and which are not the responsibility of Tenant pursuant to this Article 17, then Landlord shall remove or remediate the same, when, if, and in the manner required by applicable Environmental Laws.

PAGE 47
permits that Tenant possesses or has obtained with respect to the Premises. Tenant shall promptly give written notice to Landlord of any warnings or violations relative to the above received in writing from any federal, state or municipal agency or by any court of law and shall promptly cure the conditions causing any such violations. Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default of its obligations under the preceding sentence to promptly cure any condition causing any such violation in the event that, in lieu of such cure, Tenant shall contest the validity of such violation by appellate or other proceedings permitted under applicable law, provided that: (i) any such contest is made reasonably and in good faith, (ii) Tenant shall agree to indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all liability, costs, damages, or expenses to the extent arising in connection with such condition and/or violation, (iii) Tenant shall promptly cure any violation in the event that its appeal of such violation is finally overruled or rejected (without further opportunity to appeal), and (iv) Tenants decision to delay such cure shall not, in Landlords good faith determination, be likely to result in any actual or threatened bodily injury, property damage, or any civil or criminal liability to Landlord, any tenant or occupant of the Building or the Property, or any other person or entity. Nothing contained in this Section 19.1 shall be construed to expand the uses permitted hereunder beyond the Permitted Uses.
(b) Landlord Obligations.

(g) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, other than as specified above, and such failure continues for more than thirty (30) days after notice thereof from Landlord; provided, further, that if the nature of Tenants default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall commence such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion;
(h) Tenant shall make an assignment or trust mortgage, or other conveyance or transfer of like nature, of all or a substantial part of its property for the benefit of its creditors,

PAGE 49
Wherever Tenant is used in subsections (h), (i), (j), (l), or (m) of this Section 20.1, it shall be deemed to include any parent entity of Tenant and any guarantor of any of Tenants obligations under this Lease.
20.2 Remedies. Upon an Event of Default, Landlord may, by notice to Tenant, elect to terminate this Lease; and thereupon (and without prejudice to any remedies which might otherwise be available for arrears of Rent or preceding breach of covenant or agreement and without prejudice to Tenants liability for damages as hereinafter stated), upon the giving of such notice, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified therein as though that were the Expiration Date. Without being taken or deemed to be guilty of any manner of trespass or conversion, and without being liable to indictment, prosecution or damages therefor, Landlord may thereafter, by lawful process, enter into and upon the Premises (or any part thereof in the name of the whole); repossess the same, as of its former estate; and expel Tenant and those claiming under Tenant. The words re-entry and re-enter as used in this Lease are not restricted to their technical legal meanings.
20.3 Damages - Termination.
(a) Upon the termination of this Lease under the provisions of this Section 20, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Rent up to the time of such termination, shall continue to be liable for any preceding breach of covenant, and in addition, shall pay to Landlord as damages, at the election of Landlord, either:
(i) the amount (discounted to present value at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum) by which, at the time of the termination of this Lease (or at any time thereafter if Landlord shall have initially elected damages under Section 20.3(a)(ii) below), (x) the aggregate of Rent projected over the period commencing with such termination and ending on the Expiration Date, exceeds (y) the aggregate projected rental value of the Premises for such period, taking into account a reasonable time period during which the Premises shall be unoccupied, plus all Reletting Costs (hereinafter defined); or
(ii) amounts equal to Rent which would have been payable by Tenant had this Lease not been so terminated, payable upon the due dates therefor specified herein following such termination and until the Expiration Date, provided, however, if Landlord shall re-let the Premises during such period, that Landlord shall credit Tenant with the net rents received by Landlord from such re-letting, such net rents to be determined by first deducting from the gross rents as and when received by Landlord from such re-letting the expenses incurred or paid by Landlord in terminating this Lease, as well as the expenses of re-letting, including altering and preparing the Premises for new tenants, brokers commissions, and all other similar expenses properly chargeable against the Premises and the rental therefrom (collectively, Reletting Costs), it being understood that any such re-letting may be for a period equal to or shorter or longer than the remaining Term; and provided, further, that (x) in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of such net rents over the sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder and (y) in no event shall Tenant be entitled in any suit for the collection of damages pursuant to this Section 20.3(a)(ii) to a credit in respect of any net rents from a re-letting except to the extent that such net rents are actually received by Landlord prior
PAGE 50
to the commencement of such suit. If the Premises or any part thereof should be re-let in combination with other space, then proper apportionment on a square foot area basis shall be made of the rent received from such re-letting and of the expenses of re-letting.
(b) In calculating the amount due under Section 20.3(a)(i), above, there shall be included, in addition to the Base Rent, all other considerations agreed to be paid or performed by Tenant, including without limitation Tenants Share of Operating Costs and Taxes, on the assumption that all such amounts and considerations would have increased at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum for the balance of the full term hereby granted.
(c) Suit or suits for the recovery of such damages, or any installments thereof, may be brought by Landlord from time to time at its election, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require Landlord to postpone suit until the date when the Term would have expired if it had not been terminated hereunder.
(d) Nothing herein contained shall be construed as limiting or precluding the recovery by Landlord against Tenant of any sums or damages to which, in addition to the damages particularly provided above, Landlord may lawfully be entitled by reason of any Event of Default hereunder.
(e) Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to relet the Premises after Tenant vacates the Premises in the event that the Lease is terminated based upon a default by Tenant hereunder. Marketing of Tenants Premises in a manner similar to the manner in which Landlord markets other premises within Landlords control in the Building shall be deemed to have satisfied Landlords obligation to use reasonable efforts. In no event shall Landlord be required to (i) solicit or entertain negotiations with any other prospective tenants for the Premises until Landlord obtains full and complete possession of the Premises including, without limitation, the final and unappealable legal right to re-let the Premises free of any claim of Tenant, (ii) relet the Premises before leasing other vacant space in the Building, or (iii) lease the Premises for a rental less than the current fair market rental then prevailing for similar office space in the Building.
20.4 Landlords Self-Help; Fees and Expenses. If Tenant shall default in the performance of any covenant on Tenants part to be performed in this Lease contained, including without limitation the obligation to maintain the Premises in the required condition pursuant to Section 10.1 above, Landlord may, if Tenant fails to cure such default after receiving thirty (30) days advance written notice from Landlord, or such longer period as Tenant may require to cure such default, provided that Tenant commences to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion (except that Landlord may exercise its rights under this Section 20.4 without prior notice to Tenant in an emergency), perform the same for the account of Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand therefor any costs incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest at the Lease Interest Rate until paid in full. In addition, Tenant shall pay all of Landlords costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable out of pocket attorneys fees, incurred: (i) in enforcing any obligation of Tenant under this Lease, or (ii) as a result of Landlord or any of the Landlord Parties, without its fault, being made party to any litigation pending by or against any of the Tenant Parties.
PAGE 51
20.5 Waiver of Redemption, Statutory Notice and Grace Periods. Tenant does hereby waive and surrender all rights and privileges which it might have under or by reason of any present or future Legal Requirements to redeem the Premises or to have a continuance of this Lease for the Term hereby demised after being dispossessed or ejected therefrom by process of law or under the terms of this Lease or after the termination of this Lease as herein provided. Except to the extent prohibited by Legal Requirements, any statutory notice and grace periods provided to Tenant by law are hereby expressly waived by Tenant.
20.6 Landlords Remedies Not Exclusive. The specified remedies to which Landlord may resort hereunder are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any remedies or means of redress to which Landlord may at any time be lawfully entitled, and Landlord may invoke any remedy (including the remedy of specific performance) allowed at law or in equity as if specific remedies were not herein provided for.
20.7 No Waiver. Landlords failure to seek redress for violation, or to insist upon the strict performance, of any covenant or condition of this Lease, or any of the Rules and Regulations promulgated hereunder, shall not prevent a subsequent act, which would have originally constituted a violation, from having all the force and effect of an original violation. The receipt by Landlord of Rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach. The failure of Landlord to enforce any of such Rules and Regulations against Tenant and/or any other tenant in the Building shall not be deemed a waiver of any such Rules and Regulations. No provisions of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by either party unless such waiver be in writing signed by such party. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the stipulated Rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlords right to recover the balance of such Rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.
20.8 Restrictions on Tenants Rights. During the continuation of any material monetary Event of Default, (a) Landlord shall not be obligated to provide Tenant with any notice pursuant to Sections 2.3 and 2.4 above; and (b) Tenant shall not have the right to make, nor to request Landlords consent or approval with respect to, any Alterations or Transfers.
20.9 Landlord Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, Landlord shall in no event be in default in the performance of any of Landlords obligations under this Lease unless Landlord shall have failed to perform such obligations within thirty (30) days (or such additional time as is reasonably required to correct any such default, provided Landlord commences cure within 30 days) after notice by Tenant to Landlord properly specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform any such obligation, provided however, that the provisions of this sentence shall not affect or delay Tenants rights and remedies under Section 10.7 of this Lease. Except as expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant shall not have the right to terminate or cancel this Lease or to withhold rent or to set-off or deduct any claim or damages against rent as a result of any default by Landlord or breach by Landlord of its covenants or any warranties or promises hereunder, unless same continues after notice to Landlord thereof and an opportunity for Landlord to cure the same as set forth above. In
PAGE 52
addition, except as set forth in Section 10.7(d), Tenant shall not assert any right to deduct the cost of repairs or any monetary claim against Landlord from rent thereafter due and payable under this Lease.

At least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Term (or, if applicable, within five (5) business days after any earlier termination of this Lease), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a reasonably detailed narrative description of the actions proposed (or required by any Legal Requirements) to be taken by Tenant in order to render the Premises (including any Alterations permitted or required by Landlord to remain therein) free of Hazardous Materials and otherwise released for unrestricted use and occupancy including without limitation causing the Premises to be decommissioned in accordance with the regulations of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and/or the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (the MDPH) for the control of radiation, and cause the Premises to be released for unrestricted use by the Radiation
PAGE 53
Control Program of the MDPH (the Surrender Plan). The Surrender Plan (i) shall be accompanied by a current list of (A) all Required Permits held by or on behalf of any Tenant Party with respect to Hazardous Materials in, on, under, at or about the Premises, and (B) Tenants Hazardous Materials, and (ii) shall be subject to the review and approval of Landlords environmental consultant. In connection with review and approval of the Surrender Plan, upon request of Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord or its consultant such additional non-proprietary information concerning the use of and operations within the Premises as Landlord shall request. On or before the expiration of the Term (or within thirty (30) days after any earlier termination of this Lease, during which period Tenants use and occupancy of the Premises shall be governed by Section 21.3 below), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a certification from a third party certified industrial hygienist reasonably acceptable to Landlord certifying that the Premises do not contain any Hazardous Materials and evidence that the approved Surrender Plan shall have been satisfactorily completed by a contractor acceptable to Landlord, and Landlord shall have the right, subject to reimbursement at Tenants expense as set forth below, to cause Landlords environmental consultant to inspect the Premises and perform such additional procedures as may be deemed reasonably necessary to confirm that the Premises are, as of the expiration of the Term (or, if applicable, the date which is thirty (30) days after any earlier termination of this Lease), free of Hazardous Materials and otherwise available for unrestricted use and occupancy as aforesaid. Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to deliver the Surrender Plan and any report by Landlords environmental consultant with respect to the surrender of the Premises to third parties. Such third parties and the Landlord Parties shall be entitled to rely on the Surrender Plan. If Tenant shall fail to prepare or submit a Surrender Plan approved by Landlord, or if Tenant shall fail to complete the approved Surrender Plan, or if such Surrender Plan, whether or not approved by Landlord, shall fail to adequately address the use of Hazardous Materials by any of the Tenant Parties in, on, at, under or about the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to take any such actions as Landlord may deem reasonable or appropriate to assure that the Premises and the Property are surrendered in the condition required hereunder, the cost of which actions shall be reimbursed by Tenant as Additional Rent upon demand. Tenants obligations under this Section 21.1(b) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.
(c) No act or thing done by Landlord during the Term shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall be valid, unless in writing signed by Landlord. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, no employee of Landlord or of Landlords agents shall have any power to accept the keys of the Premises prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord or of Landlords agents shall not operate as a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, remove from the Premises, prior to the end of the Term, any item installed by or for Tenant and which, pursuant to Legal Requirements, must be removed therefrom before the Premises may be used by a subsequent tenant.
21.2 Abandoned Property. After the expiration or earlier termination hereof, if Tenant fails to remove any property from the Building or the Premises which Tenant is obligated by the terms of this Lease to remove within the applicable Abandonment Notice Period, as
PAGE 54
hereinafter defined, after written notice from Landlord, such property (the Abandoned Property) shall be conclusively deemed to have been abandoned, and may either be retained by Landlord as its property or sold or otherwise disposed of in such manner as Landlord may see fit. The Abandonment Notice Period shall be five (5) business days, in the event of the expiration of the Term of the Lease, and shall be ten (10) business days in the event of the earlier termination of the Term of the Lease. If any item of Abandoned Property shall be sold, Tenant hereby agrees that Landlord may receive and retain the proceeds of such sale and apply the same to the expenses of the sale, the cost of moving and storage, any damages to which Landlord may be entitled under Section 20 hereof or pursuant to law, to any arrears of Rent, and to any other amounts due from Tenant to Landlord, with any remainder to be promptly returned to Tenant.
21.3 Holdover. If any of the Tenant Parties holds over (which term shall include, without limitation, the failure of Tenant or any Tenant Party to perform all of its obligations under Section 21.1 above) after the end of the Term, Tenant shall be deemed a tenant-at-sufferance subject to the provisions of this Lease; provided that whether or not Landlord has previously accepted payments of Rent from Tenant, (i) Tenant shall pay Base Rent at the Hold-Over Percentage, as hereinafter defined, of the highest rate of Base Rent payable during the Term, (ii) Tenant shall continue to pay to Landlord all additional rent, and (iii) if such hold over continues for a period of more than thirty (30) days, Tenant shall be liable for all damages, including without limitation lost business and consequential damages, incurred by Landlord as a result of such holding over, Tenant hereby acknowledging that Landlord may need the Premises after the end of the Term for other tenants and that the damages which Landlord may suffer as the result of Tenants holding over cannot be determined as of the Execution Date. The Hold Over Percentage shall be 150%.
21.4 Warranties. Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord, to the extent assignable, any warranties in effect on the last day of the Term with respect to any fixtures and Alterations installed and to remain in the Premises. Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of any such warranties prior to the expiration of the Term (or, if the Lease is earlier terminated, within five (5) days thereafter).
22. | MORTGAGEE RIGHTS |
22.1 Subordination. Tenants rights and interests under this Lease shall be (i) subject and subordinate to the lien of (but not the terms of) any future ground lease, overleases, mortgage, deed of trust, or similar instrument covering the Premises, the Building and/or the Land and to all advances, modifications, renewals, replacements, and extensions thereof (each of the foregoing, a Mortgage), or (ii) if any Mortgagee elects, prior to the lien of any present or future Mortgage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall be a condition to Tenants obligation to subordinate this Lease to any future Mortgage, that Landlord obtains a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement (SNDA) from the holder of such Mortgage (or ground lessor, as the case may be) in the standard form used by such Mortgagee (or ground lessor, as the case may be), with such commercially reasonable changes as may be requested by Tenant and as may be agreed to by Tenant and Mortgagee; provided however, that, in any event, such SNDA shall contain the following provisions: (i) there shall be no modification or delay of Tenants
PAGE 55
rights in the event of a delay in the Term Commencement Date, as set forth in Section 3.3 of the Lease, and (ii) while Tenant shall be required to give the Mortgagee written notice of any alleged default of the Landlord at the same time that Tenant gives such notice to Landlord, and the Mortgagee shall have the right to cure any such default within the same time period that Landlord has to cure such default, except that, with respect to defaults of the Landlord which would permit Tenant to terminate this Lease (Landlord Termination Defaults), Mortgagee shall have such additional period of time (which shall not exceed ninety (90) days after the last day that Landlord has to cure such Landlord Termination Default) as Mortgagee reasonably requires to cure such Landlord Termination Default.
22.2 Notices. Tenant shall give each Mortgagee of which the Tenant is given written notice with the same notices given to Landlord concurrently with the notice to Landlord. Each such Mortgagee shall have the concurrent grace period afforded to Landlord to cure a Landlord default (except that, with respect to any default which is the basis for Tenant to terminate the Lease, each Mortgagee shall have a commercially reasonable additional period of time to cure such default, as set forth in the Mortgagees SNDA with Tenant), and Mortgagees curing of any of Landlords default shall be treated as performance by Landlord.
22.3 Mortgagee Consent. Tenant acknowledges that, other than any consent or approval provided under Sections 3 or 11 hereof, where applicable, any consent or approval hereafter given by Landlord may be subject to the further consent or approval of a Mortgagee; and the failure or refusal of such Mortgagee to give such consent or approval shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease contained, constitute reasonable justification for Landlords withholding its consent or approval.
22.4 Landlord Subordination of Lien Rights. If Tenant desires to grant a security interest in defined personal property, trade fixtures and/or business equipment of Tenant (collectively Collateral) to a secured party, or to lease any Collateral from a lessor (any such secured party or lessor being referred to herein as Secured Party), then Landlord shall, upon written request of Tenant, execute such commercially reasonable subordination of Landlords lien rights to the rights of such Secured Party, provided however, that such Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that: (i) no auction sale shall be held in the Premises, the Building or the Property, (ii) Secured Party may only enter the Premises during the Term of the Lease, (iii) Secured Party shall give Landlord at least five (5) business days prior to exercising any right to enter the Premises, (iv) Secured Party shall, prior to making any such entry, deliver to Landlord reasonable evidence that it has obtained commercial general liability insurance, naming Landlord and Landlords managing agent as an additional insured party, with a single limit of not less than $2,000,000.00, (v) Secured Party shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord and Landlords managing agent harmless from and against any losses, costs or damage arising from any entry by Secured Party, or its agents, employees, contractors or other invitees, and (vi) Secured Party shall repair any damage to the Premises or the Building caused by the installation or removal of the Collateral.

EXHIBIT 3
WORK LETTER
This Exhibit is attached to and made a part of the Lease (the Lease) by and between KING 115 HARTWELL LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Landlord), and WAVE LIFE SCIENCES USA, INC., a Delaware corporation (Tenant), for space located at 115 Hartwell Avenue, Lexington, Massachusetts. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given in the Lease.
1. Definitions. This Work Letter shall set forth the obligations of Landlord and Tenant with respect to the improvements to be performed in the Premises for Tenants use. For the purposes of this Lease, Landlord Work consists of: (i) the Base Building Work described on Exhibit 3-1, (ii) Tenant Improvement Work with respect to the Initial Portion of the Premises, described on Exhibit 3-2, (iii) the equipment list (Equipment List) attached hereto as Exhibit 3-3 with respect to the Initial Portion of the Premises, and (iv) the responsibilities of Landlord as set forth in the Landlord/Tenant Responsibility Matrix attached hereto as Exhibit 3-4 with respect to the Initial Portion of the Premises. In the event of any conflict between Exhibit 3-4 and either Exhibit 3-2 or Exhibit 3-3, Exhibit 3-4 shall control. For avoidance doubt, (x) the Tenant Improvement Work shall not include any work necessary to obtain any governmental approvals of Landlords Work, other than the Town Approval, and (y) the Tenant Improvement Work shall only include improvements with respect to the Initial Portion of the Premises and shall not include any improvements by Landlord in respect of the Phase II Premises.
2. Permit Plans. Tenant shall engage the Design-Build Contractor, as hereinafter defined, to engage DiMella Shaffer as its subconsultant to act as the architect to prepare the Permit Set of Plans and Specifications for Tenant Improvement Work. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an approved (i.e., by Landlord) Permit Set on or before October 3, 2016. The Permit Set shall be consistent with clauses (ii)-(iv) of Section 1 above. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent of either Permit Set, and, in any event Landlord shall, within three (3) business days of Landlords receipt of each Permit Set, respond in writing by either approving such Permit Set or disapproving such Permit Set and advising Tenant of the reasons why Landlord is disapproving such Permit Set. Tenants failure to timely deliver either Permit Set shall, without the need for any notice from Landlord, be deemed to be a Tenant Delay, except to the extent that such delay arises from the default of Landlord in its obligations under this Exhibit 3.
3. Landlords Initial Contribution. With respect to the Initial Portion of the Premises, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that since the Construction Documents for Tenant Improvement Work have not yet been prepared, it is impossible to determine the exact cost of the Tenant Improvement Work as of the Execution Date of this Lease. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlords obligation to pay for the Cost of Tenant Improvement Work, as hereinafter defined, shall be limited to an amount (Landlords Initial Contribution) which shall not exceed $125.00 per rentable square foot of the Initial Portion of the Premises (the Maximum Amount) and that (subject to the provisions of this Section 3) Tenant shall be responsible for the Cost of Tenant Improvement Work for the Initial Portion of the Premises to the extent that it exceeds the Maximum Amount for the Initial Portion of the Premises. Tenant
EXHIBIT 3, PAGE 1
may not use more than $125.00 per rentable square foot of the Initial Portion of the Premises on the Cost of Tenant Improvement Work for the Initial Portion of the Premises. However, if Tenant uses less than the $125.00 per rentable square foot of the Initial Portion of the Premises on the Cost of Tenant Improvement Work for the Initial Portion of the Premises, Tenant may add any such unused portion of Landlords Initial Contribution to Landlords Phase II Contribution as set forth in Section 16 of this Exhibit 3.
4. The Cost of Tenant Improvement Work shall be defined as all hard and soft costs (including, without limitation, the cost of preparing Plans, obtaining permits, other related costs, and any applicable state sales or use tax) incurred by Landlord performing Tenant Improvement Work, as well as the cost incurred by Tenant in preparing the Permit Sets.
5. Design-Build Contractor; GMP. Landlord shall enter into a design-build contract (Design-Build Contract) for the Tenant Improvement Work with BW Kennedy (Design-Build Contractor). The Design-Build Contractor shall engage DiMella Shaffer to act as the architect for the Project. The Design-Build Contract may be on the basis of a guaranteed maximum price (GMP). The GMP shall be determined based upon the sum of the following:
| Design-Build Contractors Fee: 3% of the sum (Cost of the Work) of: (i) Direct Cost of the Work, and (ii) General Conditions Costs |
| General Conditions Costs: 6% of the Direct Cost of the Work |
| Direct Cost of the Work: Determined by bids obtained from subcontractors in accordance with this Section 5 |
| Contingency: 5 % of the Cost of the Work |
6. Preparation of Construction Documents. The Design-Build Contractor shall prepare the Construction Documents for the Tenant Improvement Work for Tenants approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. The Construction Documents shall be consistent with the approved Permit Set.
7. Tenant Responses. Tenant shall respond, in writing, to any requests from Landlord or the Design-Build Contractor for information, consents, or authorizations to proceed, within three (3) business days of Tenants receipt of such request. Any failure by Tenant to respond within such time period may be the basis of a Tenant Delay.
8. Bid Process. The provisions of this Section 8 shall apply to the Tenant Improvement Work. Tenant hereby acknowledges that:
(i) | the following portions of Landlords Work will performed by designated subcontractors (Designated Subcontractors) and so that bids will only be obtained from the Designated Subcontractors for such elements of Landlords Work: |
| Plumbing: North Share Mechanical Contractors, Inc. |
| HVAC: Environmental Systems, Inc. |
| Fire Protection: Legacy Fire Protection, Inc. |
| Electrical: Napa Electric, Inc. |
EXHIBIT 3, PAGE 2
(ii) | Landlord will cause the Design-Builder to use reasonable efforts to obtain at least three (3) bidders for other portions of Landlords Work; however, given the current market, it may not be possible to obtain more than one or two bidders with respect to portions of Landlords Work. |
All bidders shall be reasonably acceptable to both Landlord and Tenant (Tenant hereby confirming and agreeing that the Designated Subcontractors are acceptable to Tenant). Tenant shall have the right to review all bids within three (3) business days after receipt thereof. Landlord agrees to select the lowest bid unless Landlord has a reasonable basis for selecting a different bid. If Tenant reasonably determines that the GMP is higher than is acceptable to Tenant, then Tenant shall have a one-time right to give request changes to Tenant Improvement Work. In order to exercise such one-time right to request changes to Tenant Improvement Work in order to reduce the GMP, Tenant shall, on or before the date three (3) business days after Tenant receives Landlords notice to Tenant of the GMP, give written notice to Landlord specifying the changes in Tenant Improvement Work requested by Tenant. Such changes shall be subject to Landlords prior written approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). Based upon the revised Construction Documents for Tenant Improvement Work, based upon the changes requested by Tenant, as approved by Landlord, as aforesaid, Landlord shall again request bids for the construction of Tenant Improvement Work in accordance with this Section 8. Tenant shall have the right to review the revised bids within two (2) business days after receipt thereof. Landlord agrees to select the lowest bid for any portion of Landlords Work unless Landlord has a reasonable basis for selecting a different bid.
9. Tenants Share. For the purposes of this Exhibit 3: (i) if the Cost of Tenant Improvement Work is equal to, or less than, the Maximum Amount, then Tenants Share shall be 0%, and (ii) if the Cost of Tenant Improvement Work is greater than the Maximum Amount, then Tenants Share shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount by which the total Cost of Landlords Work exceeds the Maximum Amount, and the denominator of which is the total Cost of Tenant Improvement Work.
10. Tenants Obligation to Pay for Excess Costs. If the Cost of Tenant Improvement Work exceeds the Maximum Amount (such amount exceeding the Maximum Amount being herein referred to as the Excess Costs), Tenant shall pay to Landlord such Excess Costs as follows: (i) Tenant shall pay Tenants Share of Excess Costs within thirty (30) days of Billing, as hereinafter defined, (ii) with respect to any Changes to Tenant Improvement Work, Tenant shall pay for the cost of such changes in accordance with Section 11 below, and (iii) with respect to any increases in the Cost of Tenant Improvement Work arising from Claims by the Contractor, Tenant shall pay for the cost of such Claims as set forth in Section 12 below. Billing shall be defined as any invoice from Landlord setting forth, reasonable detail, the amount due from Tenant, and shall include invoices from vendors and service providers, and applications for payment from the Design-Build Contractor. Billing with respect to the Tenant Improvement Work may not be submitted to Tenant more than one time per calendar month. The amounts payable by Tenant hereunder constitute Rent payable pursuant to the Lease, and the failure to timely pay same constitutes an Event of Default under the Lease.
EXHIBIT 3, PAGE 3
11. Changes. If Tenant shall request any change, addition or alteration in any of the Plans after approval by Landlord (Changes), Landlord shall have such revisions to the drawings prepared. Promptly upon completion of the revisions, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the increased cost, if any, which will be chargeable to Tenant by reason of such change, addition or deletion. Tenant, within three (3) business days, shall notify Landlord in writing whether it desires to proceed with such Change. In the absence of such written authorization, Landlord shall have the option to continue work on the Premises disregarding the requested Change. To the extent that the cost of performing such revisions cause of the cost of Tenant Improvement Work to exceed the Maximum Amount, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the net incremental Cost of Tenant Improvement Work associated with such Changes within thirty (30) days of upon Billing, as such Change Work is being performed.
12. Claims. To the extent that any claims (Claims) by the Design-Build Contractor cause the Cost of Tenant Improvement Work to exceed the Maximum Amount, Tenant shall pay for such excess within thirty (30) days of Billing. Claims shall include any amounts properly due to the Contractor under the Design-Build Contract based upon the claims of the Design-Build Contractor under the Design-Build Contract, provided however, that the Claims shall not include any amounts arising from the default or negligence of Landlord, or Landlords agents or employees, under the Design-Build Contract.
13. Performance of Landlords Work. Following approval of the Construction Documents and Tenants written authorization to proceed with Tenant Improvement Work, Landlord shall cause the Tenant Improvement Work to be constructed substantially in accordance with the approved Plans and Specifications and in accordance with the Building Standards set forth in Exhibit 5-3.

Landlords failure to bill Sublandlord for, or to otherwise collect, such sums shall in no manner be deemed a waiver by Landlord of its right to collect such sums in accordance with the Lease. |
