1. Significant Accounting Policies

   Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated condensed financial
   statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
   necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements have been
   included. Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items. Interim
   results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain
   amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to
   conform to the current period presentation. The consolidated condensed
   financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited
   consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended
   December 31, 1995.

   The consolidated condensed financial statements include all accounts of
   Genetics Institute, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Investments in
   50% owned joint ventures are accounted for on the equity method. Under the
   equity method, investments in such affiliated joint ventures are recorded at
   cost and adjusted by the Company's share of the income and losses of and the
   investments in and distributions from such affiliates. All significant
   intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
   that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
   contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
   the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
   Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Transactions with American Home Products Corporation

   On September 19, 1991, the Company and American Home Products Corporation
   ("AHP") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "AHP Transaction")
   that was consummated on January 16, 1992 through which AHP acquired a 60%
   interest in the Company. In connection with the AHP Transaction, the Company
   issued 9,466,709 new shares of Common Stock to AHP for an aggregate purchase
   price of approximately $300.0 million and, for shares of Common Stock owned,
   the Company's shareholders received a combination of cash and Depositary
   Shares subject to a call option. Under the terms of the call option, AHP has
   the right but not the obligation, to purchase the outstanding Depositary
   Shares that it does not own, in whole but not in part, at any time until
   December 31, 1996, at a call price of $81.32 per share for the period April
   1, 1996 to June 30, 1996 and increasing by $1.84 on a quarterly basis to
   $85.00 per share for the quarter ending December 31, 1996.

   Independent of its right to call the Depositary Shares, AHP is permitted
   to acquire additional Depositary Shares through open market purchases or 
   privately negotiated purchases, provided that during the term of the call 
   option its aggregate holdings do not exceed 75% of the Company's outstanding
   equity, subject to certain exceptions. As of March 31, 1996, AHP's total
   ownership position in the Company approximates 62%.

   The Company is engaged in collaborations with AHP in the development and
   commercialization of recombinant human interleukin-twelve (rhIL-12), an
   immune system modulatory protein, and the commercialization of recombinant
   human interleukin-eleven (rhIL-11), a blood cell growth factor. A
   collaboration with AHP in the area of cellular adhesion discovery research
   ended as scheduled during the second quarter of 1995. Collaborative research
   and development revenue includes $4.7 million and $3.1 million for the three
   month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, relating to these
   collaborations with AHP. Losses of affiliates includes $1.2 million and $0.6
   million for the three month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995,
   respectively, relating to these collaborations with AHP.

3. Investments in Debt Securities

<TABLE>

   The Company's investment portfolio of debt securities consists of cash
   equivalents classified as held-to-maturity and marketable securities
   classified as available-for-sale. The fair value of cash equivalents
   approximated the amortized cost of $53.1 million at March 31, 1996. Aggregate
   fair value, amortized cost and average maturity for marketable securities
   held at March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 are presented below. The average
   maturities presented below include estimates of the effective life for
   certain securities whose actual maturities will differ from contractual
   maturities because the borrowers have the right to call or prepay the
   obligations without call or prepayment penalties.

   The net unrealized loss on marketable securities for the three months ended
   March 31, 1996, which has been recorded in shareholders' equity, was $4.0
   million. Gross realized gains and losses on sales of marketable securities
   for the three month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 were not material
   to the results of operations.

4. Loss of Affiliates, Net

   Loss of affiliates, net consists of the Company's share of benchmark payments
   or license fees received by the joint ventures, net of the Company's share of
   research and development expenses incurred by affiliated joint ventures
   (excluding any research and development or other services provided by the
   Company to the joint ventures). The Company's share of the joint ventures'
   revenues, which ranges from 50% to 62.5%, is generally distributed when
   received by the joint venture. The Company's share of the joint ventures'
   expenses, which ranges from 25% to 50%, is generally funded as incurred.
   Investments in such affiliates are accounted for on the equity method and
   amounted to $0.9 million and $1.6 million at March 31, 1996 and December 31,
   1995, respectively.

   The more significant of these affiliates are GI-Yamanouchi, Inc. (GYJ), the
   GI-Yamanouchi European Partnership (GYEP) and IL-12 Partners. The GYJ and the
   GYEP are joint ventures with Yamanouchi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (Yamanouchi)
   formed to develop and commercialize certain of the Company's product
   candidates in Japan and Europe, respectively. IL-12 Partners is a joint
   venture with AHP formed to develop and commercialize rhIL-12 worldwide except
   Japan.

5. Contingencies

   The Company is involved in various legal proceedings including patent
   litigation of a nature considered normal to its business.

   Patent infringement proceedings are pending in Europe between Boehringer
   Mannheim, GmbH ("Boehringer Mannheim") the Company's licensee, and Ortho 
   Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and certain Ortho affiliates, licensees of 
   Kirin-Amgen, Inc.'s recombinant EPO patents, seeking injunctive relief and 
   damages for infringement of their respective erythropoietin ("EPO") patent 
   rights.

   The patents which are at issue in these suits have also been the subject of
   European Patent Office proceedings. In June 1994, a claim in the Company's
   European patent covering homogeneous EPO compositions (the '539 patent) was
   upheld by the Opposition Division of the European Patent Office. This
   decision has been appealed. In September 1994, an appellate hearing was held
   before the Board of Technical Appeals of the European Patent Office relating
   to oppositions to Kirin-Amgen's European recombinant EPO patent. The Board
   ruled that a modified version of certain of Kirin-Amgen's original claims in
   the patent filing was valid. However, it is uncertain whether Kirin-Amgen's
   claims cover the making, using or selling of Boehringer Mannheim's
   recombinant EPO.

   The Company can provide no assurance as to the outcome of these European
   proceedings. If as a result of these proceedings Boehringer Mannheim is
   forced to withdraw from any or all markets, the Company's future royalty
   income from Boehringer Mannheim, which totaled $12.9 million in fiscal 1995
   and which, absent an adverse outcome, is expected to increase in 1996, could
   be reduced or eliminated.

              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (unaudited)


   In January 1996, the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued an
   order to show cause why it should not rule in a patent interference
   proceeding that the patents owned by Stryker Corporation purporting to cover
   recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-two ("rhBMP-2") do not 
   interfere with the Company's rhBMP-2 patent estate, and that the Stryker 
   Corporation patents are not invalid in view of certain prior art
   publications. The Company believes the decision is incorrect and plans to
   respond and appeal, as appropriate. Because the Company's discovery of
   rhBMP-2 and its related rhBMP-2 patent filings substantially predate the
   Stryker Corporation patent filings, the Company believes that it is unlikely
   that rhBMP-2 products can be validly covered by Stryker Corporation patents.
   However, the Company can provide no assurance as to the outcome of any future
   legal proceeding.

   In August 1992 and November 1994, respectively, the Company was issued U.S.
   patents covering rhBMP-7 currently in development by Stryker Corporation and
   Creative BioMolecules, Inc. under the name OP-1. Stryker Corporation also has
   pending patent applications directed to rhBMP-7 which may become the subject
   of a future patent interference proceeding with the Company's issued rhBMP-7
   patents. The Company can provide no assurance as to the outcome of any future
   interference or other legal proceeding with respect to these patents and
   patent applications.

   In the opinion of the Company, although the outcome of any currently pending
   litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, the ultimate liability of the
   Company in connection with pending litigation will not have a material
   adverse effect on the Company's financial position but could be material to
   the Company's future results of operations.

6. Acquisition of SciGenics, Inc.

   In the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company acquired 100% of the callable
   common stock of SciGenics, Inc. ("SciGenics"). The acquisition was made
   pursuant to the terms of a cash tender offer in which the Company acquired
   approximately 67% of the callable common stock of SciGenics at $14.00 per
   share. The remaining equity interest in SciGenics was acquired upon the
   merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company into SciGenics, with
   SciGenics being the surviving corporation. In the merger, each share of
   callable common stock of SciGenics not held by the Company was converted into
   the right to receive $14.00 in cash for a total purchase price of $29.3
   million for the 2,090,909 shares acquired. As of December 31, 1995, SciGenics
   shareholders holding 543,908 shares indicated their intention to demand an
   appraisal of the fair value of their shares under Delaware law and the
   Company accrued merger consideration of $14.00 per share for those shares.
   During the first quarter of 1996, certain of these shareholders elected to
   forego the appraisal process and tendered their shares. As a result, at March
   31, 1996, the Company had a balance of $4.3 million of accrued merger
   consideration, or 305,250 shares at $14.00 per share. On April 7, 1996, all
   appraisal rights expired without any appraisal actions being filed.  The
   Company expects to complete the payment of all remaining merger consideration
   of $14.00 per share in the second quarter of 1996.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


OVERVIEW

Genetics Institute, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") are principally
engaged in discovering, developing and commercializing biopharmaceutical
products using recombinant DNA and related technologies.

The Company and American Home Products Corporation ("AHP") entered into a
transaction (the "AHP Transaction") through which AHP acquired a majority
interest in the Company effective January 16, 1992 (see Note 2 of Notes to
Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements). Under the terms of a call option, 
AHP has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the outstanding 
Depositary Shares that it does not own, in whole but not in part, at any time 
until December 31, 1996, at a call price of $81.32 per share for the period 
April 1, 1996 to June 30, 1996 and increasing by $1.84 on a quarterly basis to 
$85.00 per share for the quarter ending December 31, 1996 (the "Call Option").

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. The Company reported net income of
$22.3 million for the first quarter of 1996, compared with net income of $5.7
million for the first quarter of 1995.

The Company's revenues include product sales from the supply of recombinant
human antihemophilic factor concentrate ("rhAHF") to Baxter Healthcare
Corporation ("Baxter"), royalties on sales of products by licensees, and
collaborative research and development revenue for activities conducted under
agreements with the Company's joint venture partners and certain licensees.
Revenues for the first quarter of 1996 totaled $71.8 million, an increase of
39%, or $20.1 million, from the first quarter of 1995.

Product sales increased 23%, or $5.5 million, to $29.4 million for the first
quarter of 1996 due primarily to increases in the unit volume of rhAHF shipped
to Baxter. Royalties increased $15.5 million to $26.0 million for the first
quarter of 1996. In January 1996, the company expanded and restructured its
license agreement with Boehringer Mannheim GmbH ("Boehringer Mannheim") for
erythropoietin ("EPO"). Under the amended agreement, the Company licensed
Boehringer Mannheim to sell EPO in additional countries in the Asia-Pacific area
and Boehringer Mannheim agreed to pay the Company license fees and future
benchmark payments for the expanded territories. The restructuring also provides
Boehringer Mannheim with greater financial responsibility for and control over
the prosecution and settlement of patent suits against third party infringers,
and Boehringer Mannheim agreed to release from escrow approximately $8.0 million
in royalties it previously withheld from the Company to finance such litigation
expenses, and to cease to withhold any additional royalties for this purpose.
The restructuring establishes a new royalty rate applicable to Boehringer
Mannheim's original territories that cannot be decreased by any future EPO
patent settlement or for any other reason. Royalties in the first quarter of
1996 include $11.4 million relating to the termination of the escrow
arrangement. Excluding this amount, royalties increased 39%, or $4.1 million, to
$14.7 million, primarily due to increases in the volume of Baxter's sales of
Recombinate [Trademark] Antihemophilic Factor (Recombinant) and in the volume 
of licensees' sales of EPO. Effective April 1, 1996, the Japanese government 
reduced the price of EPO products in Japan by 15.5% which may reduce the growth 
rate of EPO royalty income from Japan in the near-term.

Collaborative research and development revenue decreased 5% to $16.5 million for
the first quarter of 1996. Collaborative research and development revenue for
1996 includes license fees and benchmark payments totaling $10.0 million
relating to the agreement with Boehringer Mannheim discussed above.
Collaborative research and development revenue for the first quarter of 1995
includes $12.5 million recognized in connection with an agreement between the
Company and Sofamor Danek Group, Inc. to commercialize recombinant human bone
morphogenetic protein-two ("rhBMP-2") in North America for use in certain 
surgical procedures involving the spine. Collaborative research and development 
revenue

<PAGE>   11
                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



includes $4.7 million and $3.1 million for the first quarter of 1996 and 1995,
respectively, relating to collaborations with AHP in the development and
commercialization of recombinant human interleukin-twelve ("rhIL-12"), an immune
system modulatory protein, and in 1995 in the area of cellular adhesion
discovery research.

Cost of sales includes royalties payable to third parties upon the receipt of
certain royalty revenues from licensees. Such third party royalties totaled $2.6
million and $1.2 million in the first quarters of 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Cost of sales excluding such third party royalties, as a percentage of product
sales was 31% and 51% for the first quarters of 1996 and 1995, respectively. The
significant percentage decrease in 1996 was primarily due to lower unit
manufacturing costs.

Research and development expense increased 17% to $31.6 million in the first
quarter of 1996 as compared to the first quarter of 1995, primarily due to
increases in development costs for recombinant Factor IX ("rFIX") and for       
Neumega[Trademark] recombinant human interleukin eleven, product candidates
that are presently in pivotal clinical trials. Increases in clinical
manufacturing costs and the costs of the Company's genomics discovery research
program also contributed to the increase from the prior year in research and
development costs. General and administrative expenses increased 54% to $6.8
million in the first quarter of 1996 as compared to the first quarter of 1995,
primarily due to expansion of the Company's commercial operations function and
to an increase in market development and other activities preparatory to the
commercialization of rFIX. General and administrative expenses for 1996 are
expected to continue to exceed those recorded in 1995 as the Company puts in
place the commercial infrastructure to market and sell rFIX in North America.

Investment income increased 5% in the first quarter of 1996 due to a net
realized gain on sales of marketable securities as compared with a net realized
loss recorded in the first quarter of 1995.

Losses of affiliates, net, of $2.3 million and $2.8 million were recorded in
first quarters of 1996 and 1995, respectively. Certain of the Company's product
development activities in Japan are being conducted through GI-Yamanouchi, Inc.
(the "GYJ"), a joint venture with Yamanouchi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
("Yamanouchi"). In the second quarter of 1995, the GYJ assigned its rights to
the development and commercialization of rhBMP-2 in Japan to Yamanouchi. The
decrease in loss of affiliates, net, was primarily due to this restructuring of
the GYJ. In addition, the Company is conducting certain rhIL-12 product
development activities through IL-12 Partners, a joint venture with AHP. Loss of
affiliates, net includes $1.2 million and $0.6 million for the first quarter of
1996 and 1995, respectively, relating to the rhIL-12 collaboration with AHP.


LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and marketable securities (recorded at fair market value) totaled $277.0
million at March 31, 1996, an increase of $26.1 million from December 31, 1995.
The total increase in cash and marketable securities of $30.1 million was offset
by a non-cash net unrealized loss on marketable securities of $4.0 million. For
the first quarter of 1996, $24.1 million in cash was provided by operations. In
addition, the Company received proceeds of $8.8 million from the issuance of
stock (primarily from the exercise of stock options), $0.9 million from the
exercise of warrants and $5.0 million from a sale-leaseback of equipment. These
sources of cash were offset by investments of $6.7 million in plant and
equipment and $1.9 million in affiliates and other activities.

At March 31, 1996, 2,065,609 warrants, which expire on May 31, 1996, were
outstanding. These warrants are exercisable for the same consideration received
by shareholders in the AHP Transaction. Assuming that the amount of such
consideration continues to exceed the exercise price of the warrants, their
exercise would provide an additional $74.2 million of cash proceeds to the
Company. In addition, in connection with the Company's acquisition of SciGenics,
Inc. in the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company accrued merger consideration for
shares held by shareholders who had indicated an intention to exercise appraisal
rights. During the first quarter of 1996, certain of these shareholders elected
to forego the appraisal process and tendered their shares. As a result, at March
31, 1996, the Company had a balance of $4.3 million of accrued merger
consideration, or 305,250 shares at $14.00 per share. On April 7, 1996, all
appraisal rights expired without any appraisal actions being filed.  The
Company expects to complete the payment of all remaining merger consideration of
$14.00 per share in the second quarter of 1996.

The Company expects that its available cash and marketable securities, together
with operating revenues, investment income and lease and debt financing
arrangements, will be sufficient to finance its working capital and capital
requirements for the foreseeable future. Over the next several years, the
Company's working capital and capital requirements will be subject to change
depending upon numerous factors including the level of capital expenditures,
changes in the amount of expenditures committed to self-funded research and
development programs, results of research and development activities,
competitive and technological developments, the levels of resources which the
Company devotes to the expansion of its clinical testing, manufacturing and
marketing activities and the timing and cost of obtaining required regulatory
approvals for new products.

FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

The Company expects to be profitable in 1996. However, the level of the
Company's profitability in 1996 and thereafter depends upon a number of factors
including: the volume and cost of bulk rhAHF concentrate manufactured by the
Company and sold to Baxter; the Company's ability to manufacture sufficient
quantities of bulk rhAHF concentrate to meet Baxter's requirements; the volume
and price of Baxter's sales of Recombinate[Trademark] Antihemophilic Factor
(Recombinant); licensees' sales of EPO and the impact of infringement litigation
on EPO royalty income (as discussed in "Legal Proceedings" above); the success
of the Company's development collaborations with others (including AHP) and the

                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS




achievement of development benchmarks under existing collaborative
arrangements; and the ability of the Company to consummate new collaborative
agreements. For years after 1996, profitability will also depend on the
successful completion of clinical trials, subsequent regulatory approvals for
commercialization of biopharmaceuticals under development, including rFIX and 
Nuemega[Trademark] rhIL-11, and the timing of any such regulatory approvals.

Future sales increases for Baxter's Recombinate[Trademark] and licensees' EPO
are primarily dependent on further penetration of existing markets, the
effects of competitive products and changes in reimbursement rates or the basis
of reimbursement by governmental agencies. Future sales increases for Baxter's
Recombinate[Trademark] may also be dependent on obtaining regulatory approvals
for changes in and improvements to the Company's rhAHF manufacturing processes.
Increases in licensees' sales of EPO are also dependent on product approvals in
and penetration of new markets and the timing and nature of additional
indications for which the product may be approved. In addition, international
sales of Baxter's Recombinate[Trademark] and licensees' sales of EPO will
continue to be subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Adverse developments with respect to these matters could have a material 
adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. In addition, the 
Company's consolidated results of operations have fluctuated from period to
period and may continue to fluctuate as a result of these factors.

Significant volatility of market valuations has been associated with the 
business and operations of biopharmaceutical companies. Developments
involving the Company or its competitors concerning technological innovations,
new commercial products, results of clinical trials, patents, proprietary
rights and related infringement disputes, results of litigation, and the
expense and time associated with obtaining requisite government approvals may
have a significant impact on the Company's business and on its market
valuation. As of March 31, 1996, four of the Company's proprietary product
candidates were in human clinical trials. Phase I and phase II data are
preliminary measurements of a product's safety and efficacy and do not
necessarily assure positive phase III data or ultimate regulatory approval for
commercial sale. The Company's market valuation could be subject to volatility
based upon the outcome of clinical trials and as investors interpret the
results of the Company's current and future clinical trials. In addition, the
Call Option held by AHP, which expires on December 31, 1996, may have an impact
on the volatility of the Company's market valuation.

FLEET CREDIT CORPORATION                                 PURCHASE OPTION RIDER

50 Kennedy Plaza
Providence, Rhode Island 02903-2305


      This Purchase Option Rider (the "Rider") is attached to and made a part of
that certain Lease Schedule No. 25391-77, dated as of February 23, 1996 - (the
"Lease Schedule"), by and between the undersigned parties.

      1. Purchase Option. If no Event of Default (or event or condition which,
with the passage of time or giving of notice, or both, would become such an
Event of Default) shall have occurred and be continuing, and the Lease shall not
have been earlier terminated, Lessee shall have the option to purchase (the
"Purchase Option") all, but not less than all, of the Equipment at the
expiration of the Lease Term for an amount, payable in immediately available
funds on the last day of the Lease Term, equal to: (a) all Rental Payments, late
charges and other amounts due and owing under the Lease; plus (b) all taxes,
assessments and other charges due or payable in connection with the sale of the
Equipment to Lessee; plus (c) the Purchase Option Price (hereinafter defined).

      Provided that Lessor shall have received all amounts payable hereunder on
the last day of the Lease Term, and that no Event of Default then exists and is
continuing under the Lease, Lessor shall convey all of its right, title and
interest in and to the Equipment to Lessee on the last day of the Lease Term, on
an "AS-IS", "WHERE-IS" BASIS WITHOUT REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, and without recourse to Lessor, except that the Equipment shall be free
and clear of all liens created by Lessor. If Lessee intends to exercise the
Purchase Option, Lessee shall give irrevocable written notice to Lessor (the
"Option Notice") not more than 240 days, nor less than 180 days, prior to the
expiration of the Lease Term. If Lessee fails to give such written notice to
Lessor, it shall be conclusively presumed that Lessee has elected not to
exercise the Purchase Option.

      If, for any reason, Lessee does not exercise the Purchase Option, Lessee
shall, on the last day of the Lease Term, return all of the Equipment to Lessor
pursuant to and in the condition required by the terms of the Lease and pay to
Lessor a return fee equal to 6% of the Acquisition Cost of the Equipment.

      2. Purchase Option Price. If Lessee has elected to exercise the Purchase
Option, then the "Purchase Option Price" shall be the Fair Market Value
(hereinafter defined) of the Equipment, provided, however, that the Purchase
Option Price shall not be less than 21% of the Acquisition Cost of the
Equipment. As soon as practicable following Lessor's receipt of the Option
Notice, Lessor and Lessee shall agree on the Fair Market Value of the Equipment
as of the end of the Lease Term. "Fair Market Value" of the Equipment shall be
the amount determined on the basis of, and equal in value to, the amount which
would be obtained in an arm's-length transaction between an informed and willing
buyer-user (other than a buyer-user currently in possession or a used equipment
or scrap dealer) and an informed and willing seller, under no compulsion to buy
or sell, and in such determination, costs of removal from the location of
current use shall not be a deduction from such value, and it shall be assumed
(whether or not the same be true) that the Equipment has been maintained and
would have been returned to Lessor in compliance with the requirements of the
Lease.

      If Lessor and Lessee fail to agree upon Fair Market Value on or before one
hundred sixty (160) days prior to the expiration of the Lease Term, then such
value shall be determined by an independent certified appraiser, selected by
Lessee, whose determination, which shall be made in accordance with the
standards set forth in the preceding paragraph, shall be binding on both Lessee
and Lessor.

      All capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the
meanings set forth or referred to in the Lease Schedule. Except as specifically
set forth herein, all of the terms and conditions of the Lease shall remain in
full force and effect and are hereby ratified and affirmed. To the extent that
the provisions of this Rider conflict with any provisions contained in the
Lease, the provisions of this Rider shall control.
