telephone number is (617) 290-0710.
This Prospectus is accompanied by: (i) the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995; and (ii) the Company's Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1995.
ISSUANCE OF THE SHARES
In October 1988, the Company entered into a joint venture (the "Venture")
with PruTech Research and Development Partnership III ("PruTech"), for the
purpose of developing and marketing certain products. PruTech contributed
approximately $2,950,000 in cash to the Venture; the Company licensed to the
Venture certain base technology and was required to perform certain development,
marketing and administrative services for the Venture. Under the terms of the
agreement by which the Venture was established, the Company receives 65% of the
revenues from
-1-
<PAGE>
the sale of such products in consideration of the cost of goods sold, and as
reimbursement for marketing, selling, general and administrative expenses
incurred by the Company on behalf of the Venture. The net profits of the
Venture were allocated initially to PruTech (up to a maximum of 5% of the
revenues of the Venture from sales of such products for the period through
October 1991 and up to a maximum of 30% of such revenues thereafter), with the
balance of net profits of the Venture allocated to the Company. Until October
1991, the Company had an option to purchase PruTech's interest in the Venture at
a price of approximately $7 million, which option was not exercised by the
Company. From and after February 1992, PruTech has had the option to purchase
the Company's interest in the Venture on a quarterly basis at a price equal to
10 times the Venture's net profits for the previous quarter.
In March 1994, PruTech commenced an arbitration action against the Company
alleging, among other things, (i) that the Company had mismanaged the Venture;
(ii) that PruTech is entitled to cash distributions of 30% of Venture revenues;
and (iii) that certain Venture-owned technology was used in the Company's other
products. The Company has denied such allegations.
The Company has agreed to pay PruTech $2.1 million (the "Purchase
Price") solely in consideration of (i) the acquisition by the Company of
PruTech's interest in the Venture, and (ii) the settlement of the pending
arbitration action and the release by PruTech of all claims that it may have
against the Company arising out of the formation and operation of the Venture.
At the Company's option, the Purchase Price shall be payable in cash, by the
issuance of Common Stock, or a combination thereof. It is the Company's
intention to issue to PruTech Shares having a value of $2.1 million for
payment of the Purchase Price. No cash consideration will be paid by PruTech
for the Shares to be issued to it and, consequently, the Company will realize
no cash proceeds from the issuance of the Shares.
The number of Shares to be issued to PruTech and the terms of their
issuance have been determined by arms' length negotiation between the Company
and PruTech.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 30,000,000 shares
of Common Stock, $.01 par value per share, and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred
Stock, $.10 par value per share, 200,000 shares of which have been designated as
Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock and 2,142,857 shares of which have
been designated as Senior Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. As of October
25, 1995, there were issued and outstanding 15,653,068 shares of Common Stock
held of record by approximately 928 persons and 1,232,144 shares of Senior
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock held of record by 6 persons. No shares of
Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock are outstanding.
COMMON STOCK
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on matters to be
voted upon by the shareholders. There are no cumulative voting rights. Holders
of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably dividends when and if declared
by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. Upon the
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of Common Stock
share ratably in the assets of the Company available for distribution to its
shareholders, subject to the preferential rights of any then outstanding
Preferred Stock. Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive, subscription,
redemption or conversion rights. All outstanding shares of Common Stock are
fully paid and non-assessable.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Board of Directors may, without further action of the shareholders of
the Company, issue Preferred Stock in one or more series and fix the rights and
preferences thereof, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion
rights, voting rights, terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions),
redemption prices and liquidation preferences.
The rights of holders of Common Stock will be subject to, and may be
adversely affected by, the rights of holders of any Preferred Stock that may be
issued in the future. Issuance of Preferred Stock, while providing desirable
flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate
purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to
acquire, or of discouraging a third party from acquiring, a majority of the
outstanding voting stock of the Company.
-2-
<PAGE>
The Board of Directors has designated two series of Preferred Stock:
Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, consisting of 200,000 shares
("Series A Preferred Stock"), and Senior Series B Convertible Preferred Stock,
consisting of 2,142,857 shares ("Series B Preferred Stock"). The Series A
Preferred Stock was designated for the purpose of implementing the Shareholder
Rights Plan discussed under "Shareholder Rights Plan" below.
SENIOR SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
The terms of the Series B Preferred Stock are summarized as follows:
DIVIDENDS. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are not entitled to any
mandatory dividends, but are entitled to receive, before any cash dividends are
declared, set aside or paid upon shares of Common Stock, when and as declared by
the Board of Directors, dividends in an amount per share equal to that amount as
would be declared, set aside or paid on the number of shares of Common Stock
into which each share of Series B Preferred Stock could be converted.
LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of shares of
Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to be paid out of the assets available for
distribution to stockholders, before any payments are made to the holders of
Common Stock or any other stock ranking on liquidation junior to the Series B
Preferred Stock, an amount equal to $7.00 per share (subject to adjustment in
the event of any stock split, stock dividend or similar event). Holders of
shares of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to share ratably with the
holders of Common Stock in the distribution of any assets remaining for
distribution to the stockholders (after the holders of Common Stock have
received an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate amount distributed to the
holders of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to the preceding sentence.
CONVERSION FEATURE. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock may, at the option
of the holder thereof, be converted at any time or from time to time into shares
of Common Stock at a rate of 1.34375 shares of Common Stock for each share of
Series B Preferred Stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment for stock
dividends, splits, combinations or similar events.
REDEMPTION FEATURE. Subject to the rights of each holder of Series B
Preferred Stock to exercise the conversion rights, the Company shall have the
option at any time and from time to time to redeem not less than 20% of the
outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, out of funds legally available
therefor, pro rata from each holder of Series B Preferred Stock, at a purchase
price of $21.00 per share (subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock
splits and similar events).
VOTING. Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of shares of
Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a
vote of the stockholders, voting together with the holders of Common Stock as a
single class. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to that
number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which such
share can be converted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) so long as a
majority of the authorized shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain
outstanding, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
vote as a separate class to elect one member of the Company's Board of
Directors, and (ii) so long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are
outstanding, the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares
of Series B Preferred Stock shall be necessary to (a) amend the Articles of
Organization, if such amendment would adversely affect any of the rights,
powers, privileges or preferences of the Series B Preferred Stock, (b) authorize
any equity security ranking prior to or on a parity with the Series B Preferred
Stock as to liquidation preference or dividend rights or prior to the Series B
Preferred Stock as to voting rights, or (c) approve a merger, consolidation,
liquidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company
that would result in a holder of Series B Preferred Stock receiving an amount
less than $18.00 per share of Series B Preferred Stock (subject to adjustment
for stock splits, stock dividends and similar events).
SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN
The Board of Directors adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan (the "Rights
Plan") on July 15, 1988. The Rights Plan is designed to protect stockholders in
the event of (i) an unsolicited offer to acquire the Company, including an offer
that does not treat all stockholders equally, (ii) the acquisition in the open
market of shares constituting control of the Company without offering fair value
to all stockholders, and (iii) other coercive takeover tactics that could impair
the Board's ability to represent stockholder interests fully.
Under the Rights Plan, each stockholder of record at the close of business
on July 25, 1988 received a dividend distribution of one right (a "Right") for
each share of Common Stock held. Each Right entitles the registered
-3-
<PAGE>
holder to purchase from the Company one unit (a "Unit") consisting of one one-
hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock for a
price of $65.00 per Unit, subject to adjustment. The Rights will attach to all
outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Rights will trade with the Common
Stock, and will not become exercisable until the Distribution Date, which will
occur ten business days after the earlier of (i) a public announcement that a
person or group of affiliated or associated persons (an "Acquiring Person") has
acquired beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock (the "Stock Acquisition Date") or (ii) the commencement of a tender offer
or exchange offer that would result in a person or group beneficially owning 30%
or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
If (i) the Company is the surviving corporation in a merger with an
Acquiring Person, (ii) a person or group becomes the beneficial owner of more
than 25% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock (except pursuant to an
offer for all outstanding shares of Common Stock which the independent directors
determine to be fair), or (iii) an Acquiring Person enters into certain "self-
dealing" transactions with the Company, each Right will entitle the holder
thereof to receive, for the $65.00 exercise price, the number of shares of
Common Stock equal to 65, divided by one-half of the current per share market
price of the Common Stock. Following the occurrence of any of the events
described above, all Rights that are, or (as specified in the Rights Plan) were,
beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person will be null and void.
If, after the Stock Acquisition Date, (i) the Company is acquired in a
merger or other business combination transaction, or (ii) 50% or more of the
assets of the Company or earning power is sold, each Right will entitle the
holder thereof to receive, for the $65.00 exercise price, a number of shares of
common stock of the acquiring company equal to 65, divided by one-half of the
current market price of such common stock.
The Rights may be redeemed in whole, but not in part, at a price of $.01
per Right by the Board of Directors, subject to certain conditions set forth in
the Rights Plan. The Rights will expire on July 25, 1998.
The following is a summary of the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock:
Subject to the rights of the holders of any other series of Preferred
Stock, holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, in
preference to the holders of Common Stock, when, as and if declared by the Board
of Directors, quarterly dividends in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $1.00
or (ii) 100 times the per share amount of dividends declared on the Common Stock
(subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and similar events in
the future). In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of Series A Preferred
Stock are entitled to be paid out of the assets available for distribution to
stockholders, subject to the rights of holders of other series of Preferred
Stock, an amount equal to the greater of (i) $100 per share or (ii) 100 times
the per share amount to be distributed to the holders of Common Stock (subject
to adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, split, combination or similar
event). Holders of Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to 100 votes for
each share of Series A Preferred Stock held of record on all matters submitted
to a vote of stockholders. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock
shall vote together as a single class, except as otherwise required by law and
except that holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to elect two
directors in the event of certain arrearages in the payment of dividends. In
the event of a merger, consolidation or other transaction in which shares of
Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stocks or securities, cash
and/or property, each share of Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to
receive 100 times the amount received per share of Common Stock (subject to
adjustment). The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not redeemable.

Item 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
(a) Section 67 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law permits
indemnification of present and former directors and officers to the extent
specified in or authorized by (i) the articles of organization, (ii) a by-law
adopted by the stockholders, (iii) a vote adopted by the holders of a majority
of the shares of stock entitled to vote, or (iv) in the case of officers who are
not directors, by the Board of Directors, except that no indemnification shall
be provided for any person with respect to any matter as to which he shall have
been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the
reasonable belief that his action was in the best interests of the corporation.
Section 67 also provides that the absence of any express provision for
indemnification shall not limit any right of indemnification existing
independently of such Section.
(b) Article V of the Company's by-laws provides that the Company shall, to
the extent legally permissible, indemnify each former or present director or
officer against all liabilities and expenses imposed upon or incurred by any
such person in connection with, or arising out of, the defense or disposition of
any action, suit or other proceeding, civil or criminal, in which he may be
threatened or involved, by reason of his having been a director or officer;
provided that the Company shall provide no indemnification with respect to any
matter as to which any such person shall be finally adjudicated in such action,
suit or proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that
his action was in the best interests of the Company. If any such action is
disposed of, on the merits or otherwise, without the disposition being adverse
to the director or officer and without an adjudication that such person did not
act in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best
interests of the Company, the director or officer is entitled to indemnification
as a matter of right. In all other cases, indemnification shall be made as of
right unless after investigation (a) by the Board of Directors by a majority
vote of a quorum of disinterested directors, or (b) by written opinion of
independent legal counsel (who may be regular counsel of the Company), or (c)
the holders of a majority of outstanding stock entitled to vote (exclusive of
stock owned by any interested directors or officers), it shall be determined by
clear and convincing evidence that such person did not act in good faith and in
a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the
Company. Indemnification may include advancement of expenses of defending an
action upon receipt of an undertaking by the person indemnified to repay such
advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to
indemnification under Article V. Article V also provides that the right of
indemnification provided therein is not exclusive of and does not affect any
other rights to which any director or officer may be entitled under any
agreement, statute, vote of stockholders or otherwise. The Company's obligation
to indemnify under Article V shall be offset to the extent of any other source
of indemnification or any otherwise applicable insurance coverage.
(c) The Company has entered into an Agreement to Defend and Indemnify with
each of its officers and directors. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company
has agreed, to the extent legally permissible, to indemnify such person against
all losses (including, without limitation, judgments, fines and penalties) and
expenses (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement and counsel
fees and disbursements) incurred by such person in connection with or as a
result of any claim, action, suit or other proceeding, civil or criminal, or
appeal related thereto, in which he may be involved by reason of his having been
a director or officer or by reason of any action taken or not taken in his
capacity as director or officer; provided that no indemnification shall be
provided with respect to any matter as to which such person shall not have acted
in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interests
of the Company. If any such claim, action, suit or proceeding is disposed of, on
the merits or otherwise,
-7-
<PAGE>
without the disposition being adverse to such person, without a plea of guilty
or NOLO CONTENDRE and without an adjudication that such person did not act in
good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interests of
the Company, the director or officer is entitled to indemnification as a matter
of right. In all other cases, indemnification shall be made upon a
determination that such person's conduct was in good faith and in the reasonable
belief that his action was in the best interests of the Company by (a) a quorum
of disinterested directors, or (b) independent legal counsel (who may be regular
counsel of the Company), or (c) the holders of a majority of outstanding stock
entitled to vote (exclusive of stock owned by any interested directors or
officer). Expenses may be advanced by the Company prior to any final disposition
of any such action upon receipt of an undertaking by the person indemnified to
repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not
entitled to indemnification under the Agreement. Such Agreements provide that
the right of indemnification provided therein is in addition to any rights to
which any person concerned may be entitled by other agreements or as a matter of
law, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators
of the indemnified person. The rights of indemnification provided in such
Agreements are in addition to any rights under any insurance policy in effect,
provided that to the extent any claim is covered by any such insurance policy,
the Company will provide coverage after the full coverage of the insurance
policy is exhausted or otherwise unavailable.
(d) Article 6D of the Company's Articles of Organization provides that, to
the fullest extent permitted by Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts General Laws,
a director of the Company shall not be personally liable to the Company or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director,
notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability. Section 13(b)(1
1/2) of Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts General Laws permits a corporation to
include in its articles of organization a provision eliminating or limiting the
personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary as a director, except for (i) any
breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation and its
stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, (ii) improper
issuances of stock or unauthorized distributions to stockholders, or (iv) any
transaction in which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Item 16. EXHIBITS.
The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits is incorporated herein
by reference.
Item 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
1. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the Articles of Organization, By-laws or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefor, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Gentlemen:
I have assisted in the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-2
to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Registration
Statement"), relating to 275,000 shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value per
share (the "Shares"), of Interleaf, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the
"Company"), issuable to PruTech Research and Development Partnership III
pursuant to a certain agreement with the Company ("Agreement").
I have examined (i) the Restated Articles of Organization and By-laws of
the Company and all amendments thereto, (ii) the Agreement, and (iii) such
records of meetings of the directors and stockholders of the Company,
documents and other instruments as in my judgement are necessary or
appropriate to enable me to render the opinion expressed below.
In my examination of the foregoing documents, I have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all documents
submitted to me as originals, the conformity to original documents of all
documents submitted to me as certified or photostatic copies, and the
authenticity of the originals of such latter documents.
Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that the Shares have been
duly authorized for issuance and, when issued in accordance with the terms
of the Agreement against payment therefor, will be legally issued, fully
paid and nonassessable.
I hereby consent to the use of my name in the Registration Statement and
consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and Exchange
Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ John K. Hyvnar

SECTION 4. MINIMUM ANNUAL RENT; PREPAID RENT
(A) MINIMUM ANNUAL RENT. Tenant covenants and agrees to pay to Landlord,
without set-off or deduction, the Minimum Annual Rent during each year of the
Term of the Lease. Such Minimum Annual Rent shall be payable in equal Minimum
Monthly Rent Installments, in advance, on the first day of each and every
calendar month during the Term of this Lease, commencing January 1, 1997,
initially from the Prepaid Rent (as hereinafter defined and described) as
hereinafter provided, so long as the balance of Prepaid Rent held by Landlord
shall be sufficient to pay same in full, and if not, or after Tenant shall no
longer be required by the terms of this Lease to deposit any Prepaid Rent with
Landlord, at the Landlord's Address, or at such other place as Landlord shall
from time to time designate by notice, by check drawn on a bank which is a New
York Clearing House Association. Minimum Annual Rent for any partial month
during the Term shall be prorated on a daily basis.
(B) PREPAID RENT.
(1) On or before March 1, 1996, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord $75,000
as Prepaid Rent. On the first day of each month commencing January 1, 1997, and
thereafter so long as the amount of Prepaid Rent held by Landlord from time to
time shall be sufficient to pay same, Landlord shall credit Tenant from the
Prepaid Rent for the Minimum Monthly Rent Installment due and payable hereunder
for such month.
(2) On or before June 30, 1996, and on each June 30, thereafter, until
this provision shall be null and void as hereinafter provided, Tenant shall
deliver to Landlord its audited financial statements, for its most recent fiscal
year then ended, prepared by independent certified public accountants in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied
(the "Tenant Financial Statements"). If the Tenant Financial Statements shall
reflect as of March 31, 1996 (a) an annual operating profit, and (b) cash and
cash equivalents in excess of $10,441,000 (collectively, the "Profit and Cash"),
then Tenant shall thereafter have no obligation to deposit additional sums with
Landlord constituting Prepaid Rent.
(3) If, however, the Tenant Financial Statements shall not reflect as of
March 31, 1996 the Profit and Cash, then on or before each of September 1, 1996
and March 1, 1997, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord as Prepaid Rent, $175,000
in cash, as of each such date.
(4) If, as of March 31, 1997, the Tenant Financial Statements do not
reflect the Profit and Cash, then or before each September 1, 1997, and March 1,
1998 and on each succeeding September 1 and March 1 during the term of this
Lease until the Tenant Financial Statements for Tenant's fiscal year then ended
indicate the Profit and Cash, Tenant shall deposit with the Landlord as Prepaid
Rent, $175,000 in cash, as of each such date; provided, however, if Tenant shall
be required to make a deposit of Prepaid Rent as herein provided on September 1,
2000, such amount shall be equal to the lesser of $175,000 or such amount as
shall be sufficient to pay the Minimum Annual Rent due and payable by Tenant
hereunder through the Termination Date.
(5) The Prepaid Rent to be paid by Tenant hereunder shall constitute cash
collateral to secure Tenant's obligations to pay Minimum Annual Rent and any
additional rent due to Landlord under this Lease.
<PAGE>
5
(C) LATE CHARGE. Commencing on the Commencement Date, if the Minimum
Monthly Rent Installment or Prepaid Rent, or any additional rent or other
payments or charges to be made hereunder are not paid by the tenth (10th) day of
the month for which such payments are due, Tenant agrees to pay a penalty charge
of three (3%) percent of the Minimum Monthly Rent Installment, Prepaid Rent,
additional rent or other payments or charges due. This shall also apply for
any dishonored check which results in the failure of Landlord to receive any
such payment within ten (10) days after such payment is due. Nothing in this
Section 4(C) shall be deemed to be a waiver of any right of Landlord's,
including but not limited to, Landlord's right to bring an action for default
under this Lease for non-payment of Minimum Annual Rent, Prepaid Rent,
additional rent or other payments or charges due and payable hereunder. If,
because of Tenant's default under any covenant of the Lease, including without
limitation the non-payment of Minimum Annual Rent, Prepaid Rent, additional rent
or other payments or charges Landlord institutes an action for summary
proceedings against Tenant, Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for the expense
of reasonable attorney's fees plus costs and disbursements and the same shall be
included in such action as additional rent, and the same shall be due and
payable in said actions.
SECTION 5. REIMBURSEMENT FOR REAL ESTATE TAXES.
(A) DEFINITIONS. For the purpose of this Lease, the following definitions
shall apply:
(1) The term "Tax Year" shall mean the twelve (12) month period commencing
on July 1 next preceding the Commencement Date and each succeeding twelve (l2)
month period commencing on July l during the Term hereof.
(2) The term "Taxes" shall mean all taxes, betterments, assessments
(special or otherwise), levies, license, permit and other fees, water and sewer
rents and charges, and all other charges, general and special, ordinary and
extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, of any kind and nature whatsoever
levied, assessed or imposed at any time by any governmental authority upon or
against the Property, or taxes or payments in lieu thereof. The amount of any
betterments, special taxes or special assessments included in Landlord's Taxes
for any tax fiscal year shall be limited to the amount of the installment (plus
any interest, other than penalty interest, payable thereon, provided, however,
that Tenant shall be responsible for penalty interest payments if due to
Tenant's failure to make its installment in a timely fashion) of such special
tax or special assessment required to be paid during or with respect to the year
in question. If, at any time during the Term of this
Lease, any tax or excise on rents, or other taxes, however described, are levied
or assessed against Landlord with respect to the rent reserved hereunder, either
wholly or partially in substitution for, or in addition to, real estate taxes
assessed or levied on the Property, the same shall be included in Taxes;
provided, however, Taxes shall not include franchise, estate, inheritance,
succession, capital levy, transfer, income or excess profits taxes assessed on
Landlord.
(B) PAYMENT OF TAXES.
(1) During the Term hereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent
an amount equal to the total Taxes imposed on or against the Property (such
total amount being hereinafter referred to as the "Tenant's Tax"). Payment of
Tenant's Tax shall be made to Landlord within twenty (20) days from the date
Landlord shall give written notice to Tenant that based upon a bill (or
estimated bill) received for Taxes (or for partial Taxes),
<PAGE>
6
or other form of notice received from any governmental authority responsible for
collection of Taxes, there is due from Tenant any Tenant's Tax (which notice
shall set forth the manner of computation of any Tenant's Tax due from Tenant).
At Landlord's election, simultaneously with such payment of Tenant's Tax in
respect of any Tax Year, and on the first day of each of the next succeeding
eleven calendar months, Tenant shall remit to Landlord one-twelfth of the
Tenant's Tax. If the total of such monthly remittances is greater than the
Tenant's Tax for the next succeeding Tax Year, Tenant may credit the difference
against the next installment of Tenant's Tax due to Landlord hereunder; and if
the total of such remittances is less than the Tenant's Tax for such next
succeeding Tax Year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord at the time any
Tenant's Tax becomes due and payable as hereinabove provided. If, for any
reason whatsoever, Tenant does not pay its share of any Tenant's Tax prior to
any date on which such share is due and payable, Tenant shall be responsible for
any interest or penalties imposed on Landlord as a result or arising out of such
late payment.
(2) If, after Tenant shall have made any payment to Landlord pursuant to
this Section 5, Landlord shall receive a refund of any portion of Taxes paid by
Tenant with respect to any Tax Year during the term hereof as a result of an
abatement of such Taxes by legal proceedings, settlement or otherwise, Landlord
shall, within thirty (30) days after receiving the refund, pay or credit to
Tenant such percentage of the refund (less the proportional, prorata expenses,
including attorneys' fees and appraisers' fees, incurred in connection with
obtaining any such refund), as relates to Taxes paid by Tenant to Landlord with
respect to any Tax Year for which such a refund is obtained.
(3) In the event this Lease shall commence or shall end (by reason of
expiration of the Term or earlier termination pursuant to the provisions hereof)
on any date other than the first or last day of the Tax Year, or should the Tax
Year or period of assessment of real estate taxes be changed or be more or less
than one (1) year, as the case may be, then the amount of Tenant's Tax which may
be payable by Tenant as provided in this Section 5 shall be appropriately
adjusted. Any overpayments by Tenant for the year in which the Term ends shall
be refunded to Tenant upon such adjustment provided there are no outstanding
amounts due Landlord under this Lease, in which event Landlord shall have the
right to retain such overpayments and apply the same to such amount due.
SECTION 6. Intentionally omitted.

other rights set forth herein are granted, subject to easements, ground leases,
mortgages and other matters of record and are to be used solely for general
office purposes, uses ancillary thereto appurtenant to a software company, and
any other uses which are authorized in writing by Landlord and which are

interruption of any of the above-described services, repairs or replacements
caused by breakage, accident, strikes, repairs, inability to obtain supplies,
labor or materials, or for any other causes beyond Landlord's control, nor in
any event for any indirect or consequential damages; and the failure or
omission on the part of Landlord to furnish any of same shall not be construed
as an eviction of Tenant, actual or constructive, not entitle Tenant to any
abatement or reduction of rent by reason thereof nor shall the same render
Landlord liable in damages, nor release Tenant from prompt fulfillment of any of
its covenants under this Lease.

<PAGE>
9

store, release, spill, dispose of or transfer to the Leased Premises or Property
any hazardous materials, it shall forthwith remove the same, at its sole cost
and expense in the manner provided by all applicable Environmental Laws,

identified as such in any Environmental Laws, or in any judicial or
administrative interpretations of Environmental Laws.

the expiration or termination of this Lease; provided, however, Tenant shall
have no obligations for violation of any Environmental Laws or with respect to

Property or any area adjacent to or in proximity to the Leased Premises or the
Property, arising out of any act, negligence or omission of Tenant, or arising
as a result of any use or occupancy of, or travel over or upon the Leased
Premises, the Property or any area adjacent to or in proximity to the Leased
Premises or Property, by Tenant or by any person claiming by, through or under
Tenant (including, without limitation, all patrons, guests, employees, agents,
contractors, invitees, and customers of Tenant), or arising out of any delivery
to or service supplied to or for the benefit of Tenant or the Leased Premises,
or on account of or based upon anything whatsoever done on the Leased Premises,

Landlord, its agents or employees; and, if required by law, to keep all of
Tenant's employees working in or about the Leased Premises or the Property

10
enforcement of any of the provisions of Section 9(F) hereof; and in case of any
action or proceeding brought against Landlord by reason of any such claims,
Tenant, upon notice from Landlord and at Tenant's expense, shall resist or
defend such action or proceeding and employ counsel therefor reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord. The covenants of this Section 9(G) shall survive the
termination of the Term. In addition to the foregoing, Landlord may make all
repairs and replacements to the Building resulting from acts or omissions of
Tenant's employees, agents, independent contractors or invitees (including
damage and breakage occurring when Tenant's property is being moved into or out
of the Building) and Landlord may recover all costs and expenses thereof from
Tenant on demand as additional rent.
(H) INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS. To carry and maintain, throughout the Term
hereof, at its own cost and expense, public liability insurance covering the
Leased Premises (and the Property and any area adjacent to or in proximity to
the Leased Premises or the Property, insofar as used by any customers, employees
or invitees of Tenant), naming Tenant as the insured party and Landlord (and
such others, including mortgagees of the Property, as are in privity of estate
with Landlord, as set out in a notice from time to time) as an additional
insured party, in such companies as are reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord,
in amounts not less than $1,000,000 for bodily injury per occurrence and
$5,000,000 aggregate, and an amount of not less than $l00,000 for damage to
property. All such policies shall be obtained from responsible companies
qualified to do business in Massachusetts and in good standing therein and shall
be in a form and from a company approved by Landlord. Each such policy shall be
non-cancelable and shall not be materially changed with respect to the interests
of Landlord, mortgagees of the Property and others that are in privity of estate
with Landlord (as to which Landlord provides notice to Tenant from time to time)
by either the insured or the carrier without at least twenty (20) days' prior
written notice to Landlord. In the event provision for any such insurance is to
be by a blanket insurance policy, the policy shall allocate a specific and
sufficient amount of coverage to the Leased Premises. Certificates evidencing
such insurance coverages shall be delivered to Landlord prior to commencement of
the Term, and at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any such
certificates.
(I) PROPERTY OF TENANT. That any and all of the furnishings, fixtures,
equipment, effects and property of every kind, nature and description of Tenant
and all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant which, during the
continuance of this Lease or any occupancy of the Leased Premises by Tenant or
anyone claiming under Tenant, that may be in or on the Leased Premises, Building
or Property, shall be at the sole risk of Tenant or those claiming by, through
or under Tenant, and in no case whatsoever shall Landlord (or those having
estate in the Leased Premises) be liable to Tenant, or any other person, for any
injury, death, loss or damage to any person or property on the Property or in
the Building or the Leased Premises, except if same was caused by the negligence
or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents or employees. The parties
acknowledge that loss or damage to property may result from acts of cleaning
personnel and employees of other contractors or subcontractors working in and
around the Building and that Tenant shall bear the risk and cost thereof unless
Landlord has been negligent in the selection of such persons.
(J) ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
(1) Not to assign, mortgage, pledge or encumber this Lease, nor to sublet
(which term shall be deemed to include the granting of concessions and licenses
and the like) any part of the Leased Premises, or advertise the Premises for
assignment or sublet, or suffer
<PAGE>
11
or permit this Lease or the leasehold estate hereby created or any other rights
arising under this Lease to be assigned, transferred, mortgaged, pledged,
hypothecated or encumbered, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily,
involuntarily or by operation of law, or permit the use or occupancy of all or
any portion of the Leased Premises by anyone other then Tenant without, on each
occasion, obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord. (As used herein, the
term "assign" or "assignment" shall be deemed to include any change in control
of Tenant or transfer of Tenant's interest in the Lease by operation of law, the
merger or consolidation of Tenant with or into any other firm, entity or
corporation, or the transfer or sale of a controlling interest in Tenant,
whether by sale of its capital stock, beneficial or partnership interest or
otherwise. For purposes hereof, control shall mean possession, directly or
indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and
policies of the applicable person or entity, whether through the ownership of
voting securities, partnership or beneficial interests, by contract or
otherwise.) The consent by Landlord to any such assignment or subletting shall
not constitute a waiver for the necessity to obtain such consent with respect to
any subsequent assignment or subletting. In the event of any assignment or
subletting by Tenant, Landlord may, at any time and from time to time, collect
rent and other charges from the assignee or subtenant, and apply the net amount
collected against all rents and other charges due hereunder; but no such
assignment, subletting or collection shall be deemed an acceptance of the
assignee or subtenant as a lessee, or a release of Tenant from the further
performance by Tenant of all lessee covenants herein contained, and Tenant shall
remain liable for the payment of any and all rents and other payments and
charges which may become due hereunder and for the performance of all other
covenants, agreements and conditions on the part of Tenant to be performed
hereunder. No such assignment or subletting shall be valid or effective unless
or until, at Landlord's election, the assignee or subtenant, respectively, shall
covenant in writing with Landlord, to the satisfaction of Landlord, to be bound
directly to Landlord for the performance of all Tenant covenants herein
contained. Any subletting, assignment or other transfer of Tenant's interest in
this Lease in contravention of any of the provisions of this Section 9(J) shall
be voidable at Landlord's option.
(2) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 9(J)(1)
hereof, provided that Tenant shall first have offered, in writing, either to
terminate (this Lease or to suspend this Lease for the period and with respect
to the space involved in the proposed assignment or subletting, as the case may
be, and Landlord shall not, within thirty (30) days from receipt of such offer,
have accepted such offer in writing, Landlord agrees not to unreasonably
withhold its consent to a subletting of a portion of the Leased Premises by
Tenant to a person, firm or corporation which, in Landlord's reasonable opinion,
is (a) financially responsible and of good reputation, and (b) is engaged in a
business, the functional aspects of which, with respect to the Leased Premises,
are substantially similar to the use of premises made by Tenant in the Building.
(3) In the event of any subletting or assignment hereunder, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord, at the same time and in the same manner that it makes monthly
payments of Minimum Annual Rent due under this Lease, fifty percent (50%) of the
Excess Rent, as hereinafter defined, that Tenant receives from any assignee of
this Lease or from any subtenant of the Leased Premises, as the case may be
"Excess Rent" shall be the excess (if any) of the rent and all other amounts
(including, without limitation, any consideration received by Tenant from any
such assignee or subtenant as a commitment fee, inducement fee, bonus payment or
the like) received by Tenant from any such assignee or subtenant over the sum
of: (a) the amount of monthly payments of Minimum Annual Rent Tenant is
required to pay to Landlord under this Lease, or in respect of the portion of
the Leased Premises leased under any such sublease, as the case may be, plus (b)
any Tenant's Tax which Tenant is required to pay under this Lease or on any such
portion of the Leased Premises so subleased, as the case may be, and plus (c)
any necessary reasonable
<PAGE>
12
brokerage costs and direct out-of-pocket costs for leasehold improvements
incurred by Tenant in connection with such assignment or subletting, amortized
in equal monthly installments over the number of years, or fraction thereof,
remaining in the Lease Term.
(4) Any sublease of all or any portion of the Leased Premises shall provide
that it is subject and subordinate to this Lease and to the matters to which
this Lease is or shall be subordinate, and that in the event of termination of
this Lease or reentry of dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Lease,
Landlord may, at its option, take over all of the right, title and interest of
Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at
Landlord's option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions
of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor any mortgagee of the
Property, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Lease (if such
mortgagee succeeds to that position), shall (a) be liable for any act or
omission of Tenant under such sublease, (b) be subject to any credit,
counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant
against Tenant, or (c) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease or
by any previous prepayment of more than one (1) month's rent, (d) be bound by
any covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the Leased
Premises or any portion thereof, (e) be required to account for any security
deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually delivered to
Landlord by Tenant, (f) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such
subtenant or to grant any credits, (g) be responsible for any monies owing by
Landlord to the credit of Tenant, or (h) be required to remove any person
occupying the Leased Premises or any part thereof; and such sublease shall
provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute
a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn. The
provisions of this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver of the provisions set
forth in Section 9(J)(1). Tenant shall pay all of
Landlord's reasonable costs, including without limitation for attorney's fees,
incurred by Landlord in connection with any subletting or assignment or proposed
subletting or assignment by Tenant.
(K) COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Not to permit anything to be done in or upon
the Leased Premises or Property, or to bring or keep anything therein or
thereon (including, without limitation, all furnishings, carpeting and wall
coverings), except as now or hereafter permitted by applicable building,
fire, health, sanitary or safety codes, ordinances or by-laws, or by any
public authority (including, without limitation, the Waltham Fire Department
or any fire insurance rating organization or other authority having
jurisdiction of the Property); Tenant shall not use the Leased Premises in a
manner which shall increase the premium for fire, casualty or extended
coverage insurance on the Building or on property located therein over the
premium in effect as of the Commencement Date; and Tenant shall, at Tenant's
expense, carry contents and improvements and betterments property insurance
at replacement cost and without deductible, containing standard extended
coverage endorsements, so-called, insuring Tenant's property, fixtures and
improvements within the Leased Premises. Tenant shall keep the Leased
Premises equipped with all safety appliances and permits required by law or
ordinance or any order or regulation of any public authority, shall keep the
Leased Premises equipped at all times with adequate fire extinguishers and
other such equipment reasonably required by Landlord and, upon notice by
Landlord, shall make all repairs, alterations, replacements, or additions so
required. If, by use of the Leased Premises or by reason of failure of Tenant
to comply with the provisions of this Section 9(K), the fire, casualty or
extended coverage insurance rates effective on the Building shall be higher
than such rates otherwise would have been, then Tenant shall, upon demand,
reimburse Landlord, as additional rent hereunder, for that part of all such
insurance premiums thereafter paid by Landlord which shall be charged because
of such failure or use by Tenant (a schedule or "make up" of rates for the
Building
<PAGE>
13
or Property issued by the Insurance Service Organization, or any other body
making such insurance rates for the Property, being conclusive evidence of the
facts therein stated and of the several items and charges in such insurance
rates then applicable to the Property), and shall make such reimbursement upon
the first day of the month following such outlay by Landlord; but if the use or
occupancy of the Leased Premises by Tenant shall make void or voidable any such
insurance coverage, at the option of the Landlord, this Lease may be terminated.
That the Leased Premises are being used for the purposes authorized in this
Lease shall not relieve Tenant from the foregoing duties, obligations and
expenses.
(L) ACCESS BY LANDLORD. To permit the Landlord and its agents or
representatives to enter the Leased Premises or any part thereof at reasonable
times and, except in the event of an emergency, upon reasonable prior notice, to
(a) inspect the Leased Premises, (b) exhibit the Leased Premises to prospective
purchasers, lenders or tenants, (c) determine whether Tenant is complying with
its obligations in this Lease, (d) post notices of nonresponsibility or similar
notices, (e) to make improvements, and (f) make repairs which this lease
requires Landlord to make, and to make repairs and replacements to preserve the
Leased Premises and Building, and (g) at any time within six (6) months prior to
the expiration of this Lease to affix to any part of the Leased Premises a
notice for letting the Leased Premises and to keep the same so affixed. Tenant
waives any claim on account of any injury or inconvenience to Tenant's business,
interference with Tenant's business, loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the
Leased Premises, or any other loss occasioned by such entry. Landlord will have
the right, by means which Landlord may deem proper, to open doors to the Leased
Premises in an emergency in order to enter the Leased Premises. No entry to the
Leased Premises by Landlord by any means will be deemed to be a forcible or
unlawful entry into the Leased Premises or a detained of the Leased Premises or
an eviction (actual or constructive) of Tenant from the Leased Premises, or any
part of the Leased Premises, nor will any such entry entitle Tenant to damage or
an abatement of rent or other charges which this Lease requires Tenant to pay.
(M) RULES AND REGULATIONS. To comply with all reasonable rules and
regulations (not in conflict with the provisions of this Lease) as Landlord may,
from time to time, promulgate to regulate the conduct of all tenants using the
Building and the Property, as if all such rules and regulations were set forth
in this Lease at length. A set of such rules and regulations, as currently in
effect, are attached hereto as Exhibit "C". Landlord shall, however, have the
right to change such rules and regulations and to waive any one or more of them
in the case of any one or more tenants. Such waiver as to one tenant shall not
constitute a waiver as to any other tenant. Landlord shall not be responsible
to Tenant or to Tenant's agents, employees, servants, licensees, invitees, or
visitors for failure to enforce any such rules and regulations or for the
nonobservance or violation of any such rules and regulations by any other tenant
or by any other person.
(N) CONDITION OF LEASED PREMISES. To maintain the Leased Premises neat and
clean and in such repair, order and condition as the same are in on the
Commencement Date or may be put in during the Term hereof, reasonable use and
wear thereof and damage by fire or by unavoidable casualty only excepted; and to
make as and when needed as a result of misuse by, or neglect or improper conduct
of Tenant or Tenant's servants, employees, agents, invitees or licensees or
otherwise, all repairs in and about the Leased Premises necessary to preserve
them in such repair, order and condition, which repairs shall be in quality and
class equal to the original work. (Landlord, upon prior notice to Tenant, may
elect, at the expense of Tenant, to make any such repairs or to repair any
damage or injury to the Building or the Leased Premises caused by moving
property of Tenant in or out of the Building, or by installation or removal or
furniture or other property, or by misuse by,
<PAGE>
14
or neglect or improper conduct of, Tenant or Tenant's servants, employees,
agents, or licensees.) Tenant shall, on or before the expiration of the Term,
remove Tenant's signs, goods, personal property, trade fixtures and equipment
used in the conduct of Tenant's business not servicing or affixed to the Leased
Premises, and will repair, prior to the expiration of the Term, any damages
caused by such removal. Any property not so removed shall be deemed abandoned
and may be removed and disposed of by Landlord, without risk to Landlord, in
such manner as Landlord shall determine and Tenant shall pay Landlord the entire
cost and expense incurred by it in effecting such removal and disposition and in
making any incidental repairs and replacements to the Leased Premises and for
use and occupancy during the period after the expiration of the Term and prior
to its performance of its obligations under this Section 9(N).
(O) MAINTENANCE OF LEASED PREMISES. To have performed by a reputable vendor
previously approved by Landlord, preventive maintenance and all routine and
ordinary repairs and replacements to any plumbing, heating, electrical,
ventilating, air-conditioning, mechanical and life-safety systems installed by
Tenant or Landlord in the Leased Premises such as are necessary to keep them in
good operation and working order; to have performed all necessary maintenance
and upkeep of (1) all sidewalks, driveways, roads and parking areas on the
Property, including without limitation snow shoveling, snow plowing, sanding,
cleaning, patching, crack sealing, resurfacing and restriping, and (2) all
utilities, lighting and landscaping on the Property, so as to maintain same neat
and clean, in good condition and repair, in accordance with applicable
municipal, state and federal laws, rules, regulations, by-laws or ordinances and
to the standards prescribed by Landlord and the Office Park from time to time;
and to make as and when needed as a result of misuse by, or neglect or improper
conduct of, Tenant or Tenant's servants, employees, agents, invitees or
licensees or otherwise, all repairs in and about the Leased Premises necessary
to preserve them in such repair, order and condition, which repairs shall be in
quality and class equal to the original work. If Tenant shall be in default of
its obligations set forth in this Section 9(O), Landlord may give written notice
of such default and if Tenant fails to adequately remedy the default within
fifteen (15) days of the date of such notice Landlord may, for and at the
expense of Tenant, make any and all such repairs, or perform such maintenance
and upkeep to the Leased Premises, Building and Property as herein provided,
and to such equipment serving the Leased Premises. In the event of an emergency
in which a delay would cause or threaten to cause further damage to the Leased
Premises, the Building or Property, no such notice from Landlord shall be
necessary prior to Landlord making such repairs or performing such maintenance
or upkeep.
(P) FINANCIAL INFORMATION. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of all
of its Form 10Q and 10K Reports promptly after filing thereof with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Landlord shall have the right to enter the Leased Premises at all
reasonable times, subject to Tenant's reasonable security regulations, to
ascertain whether or not Tenant is in compliance with the lessee covenants and
agreements contained in this Section 9 of the Lease.
SECTION 10. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Landlord and Tenant mutually agree
(insofar as and to the extent that such agreement may be effective without
invalidating or making it impossible to secure insurance coverage obtainable
from responsible insurance companies doing business in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts) that with respect to any loss or damage to property that is
covered by insurance then being carried by Landlord or
<PAGE>
15
Tenant, respectively, the party carrying such insurance and suffering such loss
or damage releases the other of and from any and all claims with respect to such
loss or damage; and they further mutually agree that their respective insurance
companies shall have no right of subrogation against the other on account
thereof, even though an extra premium may result therefrom. In the event that
any extra premium is payable by Tenant as a result of this provision, Landlord
shall not be liable for reimbursement to Tenant for such extra premium.
SECTION 11. ALTERATIONS, INSTALLATIONS AND WORK DONE TO
LEASED PREMISES.
(A) OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY. All repairs, alterations, additions and
restorations required or permitted hereunder by Tenant or Landlord shall be done
in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all applicable laws and
lawful ordinances, permits, by-laws, regulations and orders of governmental
authority and insurers of the Property. All improvements, alterations and
additions to the Leased Premises, and to fixtures and equipment serving it, made
or installed at any time by either Landlord or Tenant, shall be part of the
Building and the property of Landlord; but not signs, equipment, trade fixtures
or the like installed by Tenant and used in Tenant's business (where such
equipment, trade fixtures or the like neither service nor are affixed or secured
to the Building), or any additions or equipment installed at Tenant's expense
which Landlord has agreed in writing prior to installation may be removed by
Tenant. At Tenant's option, Tenant may remove cabinetry installed in the Leased
Premises upon the termination of this Lease provided Tenant shall repair at the
time of such removal any damage to the Leased Premises or Building caused by
same.
(B) LIENS AND ENCUMBRANCES. Each party doing any construction or other
work covenants to promptly pay for it, unless otherwise provided in this Lease,
and to bond or discharge promptly any mechanics or other liens, claims or
encumbrances arising from the same.
SECTION 12. CASUALTY AND TAKING.
(A) TAKING OR DAMAGE AFFECTING ENTIRE BUILDING. If the entire Building or
Property shall be taken by any exercise of the right of eminent domain, or if
the entire Building shall be destroyed by reason of damage from fire or other
casualty, or by account of any public or quasi-public authority, then this Lease
shall terminate as of the effective date of such taking or as of the effective
date of such damage. If the Building shall be substantially damaged by reason
of fire or other casualty, or by action of any public or quasi-public authority,
then this Lease may be terminated by Landlord as of the date of such damage or
action by written notice to Tenant within sixty (60) days of the date of such
damage or action.
(B) DESTRUCTION OF OR DAMAGE TO LEASED PREMISES. If the entire Leased
Premises shall be damaged and rendered untenantable by reason of damage from
fire or casualty, or if a portion thereof is so rendered untenantable that the
entire undamaged portion is unsuitable for the continued conduct of Tenant's
business, then this Lease may be terminated by either Landlord or Tenant, as of
the date of such damage, by written notice to the other within sixty (60) days
of the date of such damage; provided, however, Tenant may not so terminate this
Lease, or any such termination shall not be effective, if Landlord, within sixty
(60) days of the date of damage, gives Tenant written notice of its intention to
promptly and fully restore the Leased Premises for use and occupancy by Tenant.
If the Lease is not so terminated, a just proportion of the rent due hereunder
shall be abated
<PAGE>
16
according to the nature and extent of the damage from the date of such damage
until the Leased Premises shall have been restored to proper condition for use
and occupancy. If a portion of the Leased Premises is so damaged, but the
remaining portion is suitable for the continued conduct of Tenant's business,
then Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease, but a just proportion
of the rents due hereunder shall be abated according to the nature and extent of
the damage from the date of such damage until the damaged portion of the Leased
Premises shall have been restored to proper condition for use and occupancy.
(C) PARTIAL OR TEMPORARY TAKING OF LEASED PREMISES. If a portion, but not
all of the Building or Property shall be taken by any exercise of the right of
eminent domain, such partial taking shall be considered to be damage to a
portion of the Leased Premises and treated in accordance with Subsection (B)
hereof. If all of the Building or Property shall be so taken for temporary
purposes, such temporary taking shall be treated in accordance with Subsection
(B) hereof if the taking lasts for three (3) months or less, and in accordance
with Subsection (A) hereof if the taking lasts in excess of three (3) months.
(D) CONDEMNATION AWARDS. In the event of any taking, Landlord shall be
entitled to receive the entire award with respect to such taking, and Tenant
hereby waives all rights relating to damages to the Building and the leasehold
hereby created; provided, however, Tenant shall be entitled to and does not
waive its rights with respect to any portion of any such award expressly
allocated to Tenant by the taking authority with respect to Tenant's loss of
fixtures, leasehold improvements, and relocation expenses.
(E) RESTORATION OF LEASED PREMISES. In the event of damage to or a partial
taking of the Property, Building or Leased Premises which does not result in a
termination of this Lease as aforesaid, Landlord shall repair and restore the
Leased Premises to the condition thereof prior to such damage or partial taking,
subject to reduction in size caused by any partial taking. Such repair and
restoration shall be commenced and completed by Landlord, as rapidly as is
reasonably practicable, subject to reasonable delays which may arise by reason
of adjustment of insurance, labor troubles, shortages of materials, or any other
cause beyond Landlord's control. Landlord shall not be liable for any
inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant, or for any injury to the business of
Tenant, resulting from delays in repairing such damage. Upon commencement of
such repair and restoration by Landlord, Tenant shall, at its expense, promptly
commence repair and replacement of all trade fixtures, equipment, signs and
other property installed in the Leased Premises by Tenant, or belonging to the
Tenant, which may have been so damaged, taken or destroyed and shall, subject to
causes beyond the control of Tenant, complete the same as rapidly as is
reasonably practicable.
SECTION 13. TENANT DEFAULT. (a) In the event any default by Tenant or
any sublessee or assignee of Tenant's interest hereunder (collectively
"Assignee") continues, in case of non-payment of Minimum Annual Rent, Prepaid
Rent, additional rent or any other rents or charges herein required to be
paid by Tenant, for more than ten (10) days after written notice thereof to
Tenant from Landlord, or (b) in the event any other default of Tenant or any
Assignee continues for more than twenty (20) days after written notice
thereof to Tenant from Landlord (unless Tenant has, within said twenty (20)
day period, commenced to cure such default and thereafter prosecutes the
curing of such default to completion without interruption and with due
diligence), or (c) if Tenant or any Assignee shall abandon all or any portion
of the Leased Premises, which shall exclude the vacating of the Leased
Premises by Tenant or any Assignee provided Tenant or such Assignee shall not
be in default of its obligations hereunder, or (d) if Tenant or any Assignee
or any Guarantor of Tenant's obligations hereunder ("Guarantor") executes an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, trust mortgage or similar document,
or (e) if Tenant or any Guarantor or Assignee files a petition for relief
under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or code, or (f) if any petition for
relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or code is filed
<PAGE>
17
against Tenant or any Assignee or any Guarantor and is not dismissed or
discharged within sixty (60) days, or (g) if a custodian or similar agent is
authorized or appointed to take charge of all or substantially all of the
assets of Tenant or any Guarantor or Assignee, or (h) if Tenant's or any
Assignee's interest in this Lease is taken on execution or other process of
law in any action, or (i) if Tenant or any Assignee or any Guarantor
dissolves or is dissolved or liquidates or adopts any plan or commences any
proceeding, the result of which is intended to include dissolution or
liquidation, or (j) if any order is entered in any proceeding by or against
Tenant or any Assignee or any Guarantor decreeing or permitting the
dissolution of Tenant or any Assignee or any Guarantor or the winding up of
its affairs, or (k) if any action shall be commenced to collect upon or
enforce any lien or attachment on the Leased Premises, any portion thereof or
Landlord's interest therein, or (l) if any representation or warranty made
herein or in any report, certificate, statement or other instrument furnished
in connection with this Lease by Tenant shall prove to be materially false,
then, in any such instance, Landlord may immediately or at any time
thereafter (notwithstanding any license, consent or waiver of any former
breach), and without demand or notice, in person or by agent or attorney,
immediately or at any time thereafter enter into or upon the Leased Premises
or any part thereof in the name of the whole and repossess the same as of its
former estate, or terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant and, in
either event, expel Tenant and those claiming through or under Tenant
(including any Assignee), and remove their effects (forcibly, if necessary),
without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, without liability for
any damages, and without prejudice to any remedy which otherwise might be
available for arrears of rent or breach of covenant; and, upon entry or
notice as aforesaid this Lease shall terminate and Landlord, in addition to
all other remedies which it may have at law or in equity, shall have the
remedies provided in Section 14 hereof; provided, however, in the event that
under applicable bankruptcy law any trustee in bankruptcy has the right to
affirm this Lease and to continue to perform the obligations of Tenant
hereunder, such trustee or Tenant shall, in such time period as may be
permitted by the bankruptcy court having jurisdiction, cure all defaults of
Tenant hereunder outstanding as of the date of the affirmance of this Lease
and provide to Landlord such adequate assurances as may be necessary to
ensure Landlord of the continued performance of Tenant's obligations under
this Lease.
Tenant hereby waives and surrenders all rights and privileges which it
might have under or by reason of any present or future law to redeem the
Premises, or to have continuance of this Lease for the Term hereby leased, 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. Tenant
further agrees that it shall not interpose any counterclaim or set-off in any
summary proceeding or in any action based in whole or in part on non-payment of
rent.
SECTION 14. LANDLORD'S REMEDIES.
(A) RENTS AND OTHER CHARGES. If this Lease shall be terminated as provided
in Section 13 hereof, Tenant shall pay the Minimum Annual Rent, Tenant's Tax,
and all additional rent and other charges payable hereunder up to the time of
such termination; and thereafter, Tenant, until the end of what would have been
the Term of this Lease in the absence of such termination, and whether or not
the Leased Premises shall have been re-let, shall be liable for and shall pay to
Landlord, as current damages, the Minimum Annual Rent, Tenant's Tax, and all
additional rent and other charges which would have been payable hereunder for
the remainder of the Term of this Lease if such termination had not occurred,
less the net proceeds if any, of re-letting of the Leased Premises, after
deducting all expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with such re-letting
(including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions,
legal expenses, attorneys' fees,
<PAGE>
18
advertising, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such re-letting).
Tenant shall pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which
the Minimum Monthly Rent Installments would have been payable hereunder if this
Lease had not been terminated.
(B) LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. At any time after such termination, whether or not
Landlord shall have collected any such current damages payable under any of the
foregoing provisions of this Section 14, Landlord may elect to recover, and
Tenant shall forthwith pay, as liquidated final damages in lieu of all such
current damages beyond the date of such election, either (1) an amount equal to
the excess, if any, of the Minimum Annual Rent, Tenant's Tax, additional rent
and other charges as hereinbefore provided which would be payable hereunder from
the date of such election (assuming that, for the purposes of this subsection
(B), annual payments by Tenant on account of Tenant's Tax would be the same as
payments required for the immediately preceding twelve calendar months, or if
less than twelve calendar months have expired since the Commencement Date, the
payments required for such lesser period projected to an annual amount) for what
would be the then unexpired Term of this Lease if the same remained in effect,
over the then fair net rental value of the Leased Premises of the same period or
(2) an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the Minimum Annual Rent, Tenant's Tax,
additional rent and other charges that would have been payable for the balance
of the Term of this Lease had it not been terminated or (b) the aggregate of the
Minimum Annual Rent, Tenant's Tax, additional rent and other charges accrued in
the twelve (12) months ended next prior to such termination without reduction
for any free rent or other concession or abatement (plus, in either case under
(a) or (b), the amount of Minimum Annual Rent, and amounts for Tenant's Tax and
additional rents of any kind accrued and unpaid at the time of termination of
this Lease). In the event this Lease is so terminated prior to the expiration
of the first full year of the Term of this Lease, the liquidated damages which
Landlord may elect to recover pursuant to clause (2) (b) of this subsection (B)
shall be calculated as if such termination had occurred on the first anniversary
of the Commencement Date. Landlord agrees that any lump sum payment which it
may elect pursuant to this Section 14(B) shall be reduced to present value, as
reasonably determined by Landlord. Nothing contained in this Lease shall,
however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove for and obtain in
proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency by reason of the termination of this
Lease, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in
effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are
to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater than, equal to, or less than
the amount of the loss or damages referred to above.
(C) LANDLORD'S ADDITIONAL COSTS. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant also
agrees (1) to indemnify and save Landlord harmless from and against all
reasonable expenses and attorneys' fees which Landlord may incur in connection
with such termination and the cost of putting the Leased Premises in good order
or preparing the same for re-rental, and (2) that Landlord may re-let the Leased
Premises, or any portion thereof, for a period which may, at Landlord's option,
be less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the
balance of the Term, and may grant concessions or free rent. Any suit brought
to collect the amount of deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way
the right of Landlord to collect the deficiency for any subsequent month by a
similar proceeding. Landlord may make such alterations, repairs, replacements
and decorations to the Leased Premises as Landlord, in Landlord's reasonable
judgment, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of re-letting the
Leased Premises. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to so re-let the Leased
Premises but shall not, in any event, be liable for failure to re-let the Leased
Premises, or, if the Leased Premises are re-let, for failure to collect the rent
due under such re-letting; for purposes hereof, it is agreed that the listing of
the Leased Premises, for rental, with a reputable broker involved in leasing of
property within the Waltham-Route 128 area shall be a discharge of Landlord's
obligation hereunder to use reasonable efforts to re-let the Leased Premises.
<PAGE>
19
(D) LANDLORD'S EXPENSES IN CURING TENANT'S DEFAULTS. In the event of any
default by Tenant hereunder, Tenant will reimburse Landlord for all expenses and
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord in collecting any amount due
from Tenant, curing any default of Tenant or in obtaining possession of, or in
re-letting, the Leased Premises; and Tenant shall pay all reasonable attorneys'
fees and expenses arising out of any litigation in which Landlord shall become
involved by reason of any default, act or failure to act, or negligence of
Tenant or anyone acting under Tenant. Tenant shall immediately reimburse
Landlord for any expense that such cure might be effected by Landlord following
the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease). Tenant further agrees
that if, on termination of this Lease by expiration or otherwise, Tenant shall
fail to remove any of its property from the Leased Premises, Landlord shall be
authorized, at its sole option, and in Tenant's name and on its behalf, upon 10
days' prior notice, either (1) to cause such property to be removed and placed
in storage for the account of and at the risk and expense of Tenant, (without
liability for loss or damage to such property), or (2) to sell such property at
public or private sale, and to apply the proceeds thereof, after the payment of
all expenses of removal, storage and sale, to the indebtedness, if any, of
Tenant to Landlord, the surplus, if any, to be paid to Tenant.
(E) NO SURRENDER OF LEASED PREMISES. No act or thing done by Landlord
during the Term hereof shall be deemed an acceptance or a surrender of the
Leased Premises and no agreement to accept such surrender shall be valid, unless
in writing signed by Landlord. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord
or of Landlord's agents shall not operate as a termination of the Lease or a
surrender of the Leased Premises.
SECTION 15. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. Any and all rights and remedies which
Landlord may have under this Lease, and at law and in equity (including, without
limitation, actions at law for direct, indirect, special and consequential
damages), for Tenant's failure to comply with its obligations under this Lease
shall be cumulative and shall not be deemed inconsistent with each other, and
any two or more of all such rights and remedies may be exercised at the same
time insofar as permitted by law.
SECTION 16. INTEREST DUE ON TENANT DEFAULTS. If Tenant fails to pay the
full amount of the Minimum Annual Rent, Prepaid Rent, or any additional rent, or
to make any other payment required after any applicable grace period, or to
perform any act required of Tenant hereunder after any applicable grace period,
Landlord shall have the right to collect the amount of such overdue payment or
to pay such sums or do any act which requires the expenditure of monies which
may be necessary or appropriate by reason of the failure or neglect of Tenant to
comply with any of its obligations under this Lease and to collect from Tenant
interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month, computed on
the amount of such payment or the cost of such performance on behalf of Tenant,
from the due date of such payment or the date of such performance to the date
payment is made by Tenant.
SECTION 17. HOLDOVER. If the Tenant remains in the Leased Premises beyond
the expiration of this Lease, such holding over shall be without right and shall
not be deemed to create any tenancy, but the Tenant shall be a tenant at
sufferance only and shall pay during such period of holdover, when and as billed
therefor by Landlord, as an occupancy charge (but not as rent), an amount pro
rated on a daily basis equal to two (2) times the Minimum Annual Rent due from
Tenant as of the expiration of the Term, plus any charges for additional rent
hereunder, and Tenant's Tax due for such period of holdover.
<PAGE>
20
SECTION 18. SUBORDINATION OF LEASE; RIGHTS OF MORTGAGE HOLDERS. Tenant
will, upon request of Landlord, subordinate this Lease and the lien hereof to
the lien of any present or future mortgage, ground lease, operating agreement or
the like (collectively hereinafter called the "Mortgages"), affecting the
Property, or any part thereof, irrespective of the time of execution or time of
recording of any such Mortgages. Tenant agrees that it will, upon request of
Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all instruments deemed
necessary or desirable by Landlord to give effect to, or notice of, such
subordination, provided only that the holders of any such Mortgages shall enter
into an agreement with Tenant (in the standard form of such agreement utilized
by any such holder) which provides that such holders will not disturb the
possession and other rights of Tenant and that such holders will accept Tenant
as a lessee of the Leased Premises under the terms and conditions of this Lease
in the event of acquisition of title to the Property through foreclosure
proceedings, or otherwise, so long as Tenant performs its obligations hereunder,
agrees to recognize the holders of such Mortgages as the Landlord in such event,
and agrees to attorn to such holders; such agreement shall be expressly binding
upon the successors and assigns of Tenant and on the holders of any such
Mortgages and upon anyone purchasing the Property at a foreclosure sale. Tenant
and Landlord agree to execute, acknowledge and deliver any appropriate
instruments necessary to carry out the agreements contained in this Section 18.
Tenant agrees that if it shall fail at any time to execute, acknowledge and
deliver any such instrument within fifteen (15) days after request by Landlord,
then Landlord may, in addition to any other remedy available to Landlord,
execute, acknowledge and deliver such instrument as Tenant's attorney-in-fact
and in Tenant's name; and Tenant hereby makes, constitutes and irrevocably
appoints Landlord as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, for that
purpose. In the event of any assignment by Landlord of Landlord's interest in
this Lease, or the rents payable hereunder, which is conditional in nature or
otherwise, which assignment is made to the holder of a Mortgage, Tenant agrees
that the execution thereof by Landlord and the acceptance thereof by the holder
of such Mortgage shall not be treated as an assumption by such holder of any of
the obligations of Landlord hereunder unless such holder shall, by notice sent
to Tenant, specifically otherwise elect. Until the holder of a Mortgage shall
enter and take possession of the Leased Premises for the purpose of foreclosure,
such holder shall have only such rights of Landlord as are necessary to preserve
the integrity of this Lease as security. Upon entry and taking possession of
the Leased Premises for the purpose of foreclosure, such holder shall have all
the rights of Landlord. No such holder of a Mortgage shall be liable either as
mortgagee or as assignee, to perform, or be liable in damages for failure to
perform, any of the obligations of Landlord unless and until such holder shall
enter and take possession of the Leased Premises for the purpose of foreclosure.
If the holder of any Mortgage shall require any modification(s) to this Lease,
Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, promptly execute and deliver to Landlord
such instruments effecting such modification(s), provided that such
modification(s) do not adversely affect in any material respect any of Tenant's
rights under this Lease.
SECTION 19. COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT; LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO MAKE
ALTERATIONS OR IMPROVEMENTS TO THE PROPERTY. Tenant, on payment of the rents and
other charges payable hereunder, and upon performance of the covenants of this
Lease on its part to be performed, shall and may peaceably and quietly have,
hold and enjoy the Leased Premises for the Term of this Lease without any manner
of hindrance or molestation from Landlord or anyone claiming under Landlord,
subject, however, to the terms of this Lease; provided, however, Landlord may at
any time and from time to time, without the same constituting a breach of
Landlord's covenant of quiet enjoyment or an actual or constructive eviction,
and without incurring any liability to Tenant or otherwise affecting any of
Tenant's obligations under this Lease, install, use, maintain, repair, replace
<PAGE>
21
and relocate for service to the Leased Premises and other parts of the Building,
pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant fixtures, wherever located in the
Leased Premises or Building, or to make such changes, alterations, additions,
improvements, repairs or replacements in or to the interior and exterior of the
Building (including the Leased Premises) and the fixtures and equipment thereof,
and in or to the Property (including, without limitation, landscaping, the
construction of additional structures, signs and buildings, the relocation of
access roads situated within the Property and the redesign, relocation or
temporary closing of common facilities serving the Building and Property), as
Landlord may deem necessary or desirable in order to perform Landlord's
obligations hereunder; provided further, however, that there be no unreasonable
interference (except in emergencies) with the conduct of Tenant's business or
obstruction of access to the Leased Premises by Tenant. Landlord shall endeavor
to give Tenant reasonable prior notice, except in the event of an emergency,
prior to taking any actions herein permitted. In connection with any of the
foregoing work by Landlord on the Property, Landlord shall repair any damage
caused to Tenant's property or the Leased Premises by reason of Landlord's
negligence in performing same. Nothing contained in this Section 19 shall be
deemed to relieve Tenant of any duty, obligation or liability with respect to
making any repair, replacement or improvement or complying with any law, order
or requirement of any governmental or other authority. Landlord reserves the
right, at any time, and from time to time, to change the name and address of the
Building.
SECTION 20. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Landlord and Tenant agree that at any
time and from time to time, upon not less than ten (10) days prior written
request by the other, each will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
requesting party a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified
and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the
same are in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications),
that to the knowledge of such party no uncured defaults exist hereunder (or if
any defaults exist, specifying the same), and the dates to which the rent and
other charges due hereunder have been paid in advance, if any, it being intended
that any such statement delivered pursuant to this Section 20 may be relied upon
by any mortgagee or prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Property. Tenant
acknowledges that the execution and delivery of such certificates in connection
with a financing or sale in a prompt manner may constitute requirements of
Landlord's financings and/or property dispositions, and Tenant shall indemnify
Landlord against all damages (including consequential damages in the nature of
increased costs or loss of any such transactions, and including attorneys' fees)
directly or indirectly resulting from Tenant's failure to comply herewith
(notwithstanding that any applicable grace or notice period under Section 13 may
not have expired).
SECTION 21. NOTICE OF LEASE. Tenant agrees that it will not record this
Lease. Both parties shall, upon request of either, execute and deliver a notice
of this Lease in such recordable form as may be permitted by applicable statute.
SECTION 22. NOTICES AND APPROVALS. All notices, requests, demands,
consents, elections, approvals, and other communications which may be or are
required to be served or given hereunder (hereinafter collectively called
"Notices") shall be in writing and may be delivered in hand or sent by first
class registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), or by nationally
recognized overnight courier, if to Landlord at Landlord's Address, with a copy
by like manner to The Nelson Companies, Ltd., 100 Fifth Avenue, Waltham, MA
02154, Attention: Douglas G. Waybright, and if to Tenant, at Tenant's Address.
Each party agrees upon request of the other to immediately acknowledge any such
hand delivery. Either party may, by Notice given as aforesaid, change its
address for
<PAGE>
22
all subsequent Notices, except that neither party may require Notices to it to
be sent to more than two (2) addresses (exclusive of copies of Notices which may
be required to be sent to Landlord's mortgagees). Notices shall be deemed given
when mailed in the manner aforesaid provided they are received in due course.
SECTION 23. BROKERAGE. Tenant warrants that it has had no dealings with any
broker or agent in connection with this Lease except for any broker designated
in Section 1(A) and covenants to pay, hold harmless and indemnify Landlord from
and against any and all costs, expense or liability for any compensation,
commissions and charges claimed by any broker or agent, other than such
designated broker, with respect to this Lease or the negotiation thereof,
arising from a breach of the foregoing warranty. Upon the execution of this
Lease by Landlord, Landlord shall pay a brokerage commission in the aggregate
amount of $60,688.00, to be paid fifty percent (50%) to Meredith and Grew and
fifty percent (50%) to The Nelson Companies, Ltd.
SECTION 24. NON-WAIVER PROVISION. No assent, express or implied, by either
party to any breach of any agreement or condition herein contained on the part
of the other to be performed or observed, and no waiver, express or implied , of
any such agreement or condition, shall be deemed to be a waiver of or assent to
any succeeding breach of the same or any other agreement or condition. The
acceptance by Landlord of rent or other payment hereunder, or silence by
Landlord as to any breach, shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the
Landlord's rights hereunder unless such waiver shall be in writing. No payment
by Tenant or acceptance by Landlord of a lesser amount with an endorsement or
statement thereon, or in a writing accompanying such check, that said lesser
amount is payment in full shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and the
Landlord may accept such check without prejudice to recover the balance due or
to pursue any other remedy.
SECTION 25. INABILITY TO PERFORM-EXCULPATORY CLAUSE. Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, this Lease and the obligations of Tenant to pay rent
hereunder and to perform all of the other covenants, agreements, terms,
provisions and conditions hereunder on the part of Tenant to be performed shall
in no way be affected, impaired or excused because Landlord is temporarily
delayed in making any repairs or replacements by reason of strikes or labor
troubles, conditions of supply and demand, or any other similar or dissimilar
cause whatsoever beyond Landlord's control (including, but not limited to,
governmental preemption in connection with a national emergency or by reason of
any rule, order or regulation of any governmental agency), provided that in each
such instance of inability of Landlord to perform, Landlord shall exercise
reasonable diligence to eliminate the cause of such inability to perform or to
secure alternate sources of supply.
SECTION 26. LIMITATION OF LANDLORD'S LIABILITY. The term "Landlord", as
used in this Lease, so far as covenants or obligations to be performed by
Landlord are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or
owners at the time in question of the Building, and in the event of any transfer
or transfers of title to the Building, the Landlord herein named (and in case of
any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be
automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer or
conveyance of all liability as respects the performance of any covenants or
obligations on the part of the Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be
performed, it being intended hereby that the covenants and obligations contained
in this Lease on the part of Landlord shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on
the Landlord, its successors and assigns, only during and in respect of their
respective successive periods of
<PAGE>
23
ownership of the Building. Tenant and Tenant's successors and assigns agree
they shall not assert nor seek to enforce any claim for breach of this Lease
against any of Landlord's assets other than Landlord's interest in the Building
and in the rents, issues and profits therefrom, and agree to look solely to such
interest for the satisfaction of any liability of or claim against Landlord
under this Lease, it being specifically agreed that in no event whatsoever shall
Landlord (which term shall include, without limitation, any general partner,
limited partner, officer, director, shareholder, employee, trustee, beneficiary,
attorney or agent of Landlord) ever be personally liable for any such liability.
SECTION 27. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Lease sets forth the entire agreement
between the parties hereto and cannot be modified or amended except in writing
duly executed by both parties hereto.
SECTION 28. PARTIAL INVALIDITY. The invalidity of one or more of the
provisions of this Lease shall not affect the remaining portions of this Lease;
and, if any one or more of the provisions of this Lease should be declared
invalid by final order, decree or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction,
this Lease shall be construed as if such invalid provisions had not been
included in this Lease.
SECTION 29. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Landlord and Tenant waive trial by jury
in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of them against the
other on all matters arising out of this Lease or the use and occupancy of the
Leased Premises (except claims for personal injury or property damage). If
Landlord commences any summary proceeding for nonpayment of rent, or possession
of the Leased Premises, Tenant will not interpose (and waives the right to
interpose) any counterclaim in any such proceeding.
SECTION 30. TENANT AS BUSINESS ENTITY. If Tenant is a business entity, then
the person or persons executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant warrant and
represent in their corporate capacities that (a) Tenant is duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in
which such entity was organized and, if a foreign corporation, has qualified to
do business in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; (b) Tenant has the authority
to own its property and to carry on its business as contemplated under this
Lease; (c) Tenant is in compliance with all laws and orders of public
authorities applicable to Tenant; (d) Tenant has duly executed and delivered
this Lease; (e) the execution, delivery and performance by Tenant of this Lease
(i) are within the powers of Tenant, (ii) have been duly authorized by all
requisite action, (iii) will not violate any provisions of law or any order of
any court or agency of government, or any agreement or other instrument to which
Tenant is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or (iv) will
not result in the imposition of any lien or charge on any of Tenant's property,
except by the provisions of this Lease; and (f) the Lease is a valid and binding
obligation of Tenant in accordance with its terms. Tenant, if a business
entity, agrees that any breach of the foregoing warranty and representation
shall, at Landlord's election, be a default under this Lease for which there
shall be no cure. This warranty and representation shall survive the
termination of the Term.
SECTION 31. APPLICABLE LAW AND CONSTRUCTION; EXECUTION. This Lease shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of
Massachusetts and, if any provision of this Lease shall to any extent be
invalid, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby. There are
no oral or written agreements between
<PAGE>
24
Landlord and Tenant affecting this Lease. This Lease may be executed in one or

equipped with appropriate safety appliances and comply with all requirements of
insurance inspection or rating bureaus. Compliance with a law may be deferred
so long as Sublessee is diligently contesting the validity or applicability of
such law in good faith and
<PAGE>
9/15/95
based on counsel's written advice that such contest is more likely than not to
succeed and so long as non-compliance will not result in a lien, charge or
liability against Sublessor or Prime Lessor or their respective interests or
cause a default by Sublessor under the Prime Lease.
4.3 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
Neither Sublessee nor any other person having an interest in the
possession, use, occupancy or utilization of space in the Premises will enter
into any lease, sublease, license, concession or other agreement for use,
occupancy or utilization of space in the Premises which provides for rental or
other payment for such use, occupancy or utilization based in whole or in part
on the net income or profits derived by any person from the portion of the
Premises subleased, used, occupied or utilized (other than an amount based on a
fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales).
ARTICLE V
RENT AND OTHER CHARGES
5.1 RENT
Sublessee shall pay rent ("Rent") to Sublessor on the Rent Commencement
Dates and thereafter monthly, in advance, on the first day of each calendar
month during the term hereof, in a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the
Annual Fixed Rent specified in Section 1.1. Sublessee shall pay Rent on a pro-
rata basis for any partial calendar month during the Sublease Term(s). All
payments of Rent are to be made to Sublessor at Sublessor's mailing address
specified in Section 1.1 or at such other places as Sublessor may from time to
time designate in writing in accordance with the notice provisions hereof. All
Rent due under this Sublease shall be made without demand, offset or deduction.
ARTICLE VI
REAL ESTATE TAXES AND OPERATING COSTS
6.1 SUBLESSEE'S SHARE OF TAXES
Pursuant to Section 5 of the Prime Lease, Sublessor is obligated to pay to
Prime Lessor "Tax Excess" (as defined therein) based on Tenant's Tax Base Year
Amount, which is the amount of aggregate Taxes (as therein defined) for Fiscal
Year 1992 and based on Tenant's Tax Percentage (as defined therein)
("Sublessor's Taxes"). "Sublessee's Taxes" shall be calculated in the same
manner as Sublessor's Taxes in accordance with Section 5 of the Prime Lease,
substituting aggregate Taxes for Fiscal Year 1995 as Sublessee's Tax Base Year
Amount and calculating Sublessee's Tax Percentage on the Rentable Square Feet of
the Premises then leased by Sublessee from Sublessor as of the first day of the
applicable tax year.
<PAGE>
9/15/95
Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor in monthly installments, within 15 days of
a written invoice therefor, one-twelfth (1/12) of Sublessee's Taxes. Such
written invoice shall be accompanied by the copy of the tax bill(s) and
statement(s) which are provided by Prime Lessor under Section 5(B)(1) of the
Prime Lease to the Sublessor. If the total of such monthly remittances is
greater than the Sublessee's Taxes for the next succeeding Fiscal Tax Year,
Sublessee may credit the excess against the next installment of Sublessee's
Taxes due to Sublessor under this Sublease, and if the total of such remittances
is less than the Sublessee's Taxes for the next succeeding Fiscal Tax Year,
Sublessee shall pay the difference to Sublessor at the Time of payment by
Sublessee of its next monthly installment of Sublessee's Taxes.
Sublessor and Sublessee further agree that any such amount of the Taxes
which relate to any period, part of which does not fall within the term of this
Sublease, shall be prorated between Sublessor and Sublessee so that Sublessee
shall be responsible for only that portion of the Taxes that is ratably
allocable to the part of such period that falls within the term of this
Sublease.
Upon or after default by Sublessor under the Prime Lease not cured within
applicable cure periods, if any payments made by Sublessee on account of
Sublessee's Taxes directly to Prime Lessor shall be deemed to have been paid to
or for the benefit of Sublessor hereunder. Simultaneously with its direct
payment on account of Taxes to Prime Lessor, Sublessee shall provide Sublessor
with a copy of such payments.
6.2 SUBLESSEE'S SHARE OF OPERATING EXPENSES
Pursuant to Section 6 of the Prime Lease, Sublessor is obligated to pay to
Prime Lessor, Operating Cost Excess (as defined therein) based on the aggregate
Operating Costs for Calendar Year 1991 as the Operating Cost Base Year Amount
and based on Tenant's Operating Cost Percentage (as defined therein)
("Sublessor's Operating Costs"). "Sublessee's Operating Costs" shall be
calculated in the same manner as Sublessor's Operating Costs, in accordance with
Section 6 of the Prime Lease, substituting aggregate Operating Costs for
Calendar Year 1994 as the Sublessee's Operating Cost Base Year Amount and
calculating Sublessee's Operating Cost Percentage based on the Rentable Square
Feet of the Premises then leased by Sublessee from Sublessor as of the first day
of each applicable Operating Cost Year.
Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, in monthly installments, on or before the
first day of each calendar month, in the same manner the payments of Annual
Fixed Rent are to be made, one-twelfth (1/12) of the Sublessee's Operating
Costs. At the end of each calendar year, if the total of monthly remittances by
Sublessee is greater than the actual Sublessee's Operating Costs for such
calendar year, Sublessee may credit any excess against the next installment due
to the Sublessor, and if the total of monthly remittances by Sublessee is less
than the actual Operating Costs for such year, then Sublessee shall pay the
difference to Sublessor at the time the next monthly installment of Sublessee's
Operating Costs is due hereunder.
Sublessor and Sublessee further agree that any such amount or account of
Sublessee's Operating Costs which relates to a period, part of which does not
fall within the term of this Sublease, shall be prorated between Sublessor and
Sublessee so that Sublessee shall be responsible
<PAGE>
9/15/95
for only that portion of Operating Costs that is ratably allocable to the part
of such period that falls within the term of this Sublease.
Upon or after default by the Sublessor under the Prime Lease, not cured
within applicable cure periods, if any, any payments made by Sublessee on
account of Sublessee's Operating Costs so paid directly to Prime Lessor shall be
deemed to have been paid to or for the benefit of Sublessor hereunder.
Simultaneously with its direct payment on account of Sublessee's Operating
Costs, Sublessee shall provide Sublessor with a copy of such payment.
6.3 UTILITY COSTS
Sublessee shall be responsible for paying for all electricity and all other
utilities that are separately metered or submetered for the Premises; such
utility payments shall be made directly by Sublessee to the Sublessor.
Sublessor shall have the same rights and remedies for the nonpayment by
Sublessee of such utility costs that Sublessor has under this Sublease for
failure of Sublessee to pay Rent.
6.4 RIGHT TO NOTICE; RIGHT TO AUDIT
6.4.1 Sublessor agrees to provide to Sublessee copies of all notices,
statements of account or invoices with respect to Taxes and/or Operating Costs.
6.4.2 In the event that Sublessor does not exercise its right to review and/or
audit Operating Costs as set forth in the Prime Lease, Sublessee shall have the
right to request that Sublessor, at Sublessee's reasonable cost and expense,
review and/or audit such Operating Costs in the name of the Sublessor.
ARTICLE VII
SUBLESSOR'S SYSTEMS
7.1 SUBLESSOR'S SYSTEMS
Sublessee acknowledges and affirms that certain systems exist within the
Premises that are necessary for the continued operation of the Sublessor's
business. Such systems include, without limitation, voice and data
communication wiring connecting the third floor and the first floor and water
filtration equipment located on the sixth floor in the building management
janitorial closet as indicated on the attached Exhibit E (hereinafter
"Systems").
Sublessee agrees to use its best efforts not to modify or disturb the
Systems and to notify Sublessor in writing 24 hours in advance of any work to be
performed in the area of the Systems. Sublessee further agrees to allow
Sublessor reasonable access from time to time as set forth above to monitor and
maintain the Systems. In the event that Sublessee were to be responsible
<PAGE>
9/15/95
for any damage to the Systems due to its, its agents', its employees', or its
contractor's negligence, Sublessee shall repair the same at its reasonable cost
and expense.
ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE
8.1 INDEMNITY
8.1.1 Sublessee shall be solely responsible for and has the risk of loss of or
damage to any property owned by Sublessee, its employees and any subcontractor
it uses in the Leased Premises.
8.1.2 Except as otherwise provided herein, each party shall defend, indemnify
and hold harmless the other party, its employees, agents, subcontractors and co-
ventures, against any direct loss, damage, claim, suit, liability, judgment and
expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and other costs of litigation)
resulting from negligence of such party arising out of or in connection with the
implementation of the Sublease, including but not limited to injury, or death of
any persons or damage to or loss of any property.
Each party shall give the other party prompt notice of each claim or suit
which is or may be within this indemnity. Each party shall have the right to
defend any such claim or suit. Each party shall extend reasonable co-operation
to the other party at the other party's cost in the defense of any such claim or
suit. Neither party shall settle such claim or suit without the prior consent
of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
8.1.3 Neither party shall be liable to the other party for any loss or damage
incurred by the other party's employees and/or agents in connection with the
implementation of the Sublease, unless and to the extent that such loss or
damage was caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the other
party. For the purpose of this Article ``willful misconduct or gross
negligence'' means an act or omission not justifiable by any special
circumstances and done with the intent to cause the loss or damage, or
recklessly and with the knowledge that the loss or damage would probably result.
8.1.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sublease,
neither party shall be liable to the other party for any loss of production or
profit or any other indirect, consequential, special, or incidental damages. A
certificate of such insurance will be provided to Sublessor upon Sublessor's
request.
8.2 SUBLESSEE'S LIABILITY INSURANCE
Sublessee agrees to maintain in full force and effect from the date upon
which Sublessee first enters the Premises for any reason, until the date
Sublessee surrenders occupancy of the entire Premises, a policy of comprehensive
general public liability and property damage insurance under which Prime Lessor,
Sublessor (and such other persons as are in privity of estate with Prime Lessor
and Sublessor as may be set out in a notice to Sublessee from time to time),
<PAGE>
9/15/95
and Sublessee are named as insureds, and under which the insurer agrees to
indemnify and hold Prime Lessor, Sublessor, and those in privity of estate with
Prime Lessor and Sublessor, harmless from and against all direct cost, expense
and/or liability arising out of or based upon any and all claims, accidents,
injuries and damages occurring in or about the Premises in the broadest form of
such coverage from time to time available in Massachusetts. Each such policy
shall be non-cancelable and shall not be amended or changed with respect to
Prime Lessor, Sublessor, and their designees without ten (10) days' prior
written notice to said parties. The minimum amounts of liability of such
liability insurance shall be not less than a combined single limit of five
million dollars ($5,000,000) per occurrence and which, from time to time
hereafter, shall be no less than such higher amounts, if procurable, as may be
reasonably required by Prime Lessor under Section 9(H) of the Prime Lease.

All required insurance policies shall be obtained from responsible
companies qualified to do business in Massachusetts and in good standing therein
and shall be in a form and from a company reasonably satisfactory to Sublessor
and Prime Lessor. Sublessee shall furnish to Sublessor, and Prime Lessor, prior

ARTICLE X
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
10.1 WAIVER
Failure on the part of either party to complain of any action or non-action
on the part of the other, no matter how long the same may continue, shall never
be deemed to be a waiver by such party of any of its rights hereunder. Further,
it is agreed that no waiver of any of the provisions hereof by either party
shall be construed as a waiver of any of the other provisions hereof and that a
waiver at any time of any of the provisions hereof shall not be construed as a
waiver at any subsequent time of the same provisions. The consent to or
approval of any action by either party requiring such consent or approval shall
not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary such consent to or approval of any
subsequent similar act by such party.
10.2 YIELD UP
In the event the Sublessee elects not to exercise its rights under an
Agreement with the Prime Lessor of even date at the termination of the Sublease
Terms, Sublessee and all persons claiming through Sublessee shall without the
necessity of notice, surrender the Premises and all keys (or lock combinations)
to the Premises; and shall remove all trade fixtures and personal property
whether or not bolted or otherwise attached, and all of Sublessee's signs
wherever located. Any property not so removed shall be deemed abandoned, shall
at once become the property of Sublessor (or Prime Lessor, as the case may be)
and may be disposed of in such manner as Sublessor (or Prime Lessor, as the case
may be) shall see fit upon five days notice to Sublessee (which notice may be
given in accordance with the terms of this Sublease and Sublessee agrees that
notice so given, notwithstanding that the Term of this Sublease has terminated
and/or that Sublessee has abandoned or vacated the Premises, shall satisfy such
notice requirements); and Sublessee shall pay the cost of such removal and
disposal to Sublessor (or Prime Lessor, as the case may be) upon demand.
10.3 INVALIDITY OF PARTICULAR PROVISIONS
If any term or provision of this Sublease, or the application thereof to
any person or circumstance, shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable,
the remainder of this Sublease, or the application of such term or provision to
persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or
unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of
this Sublease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by
law.

Sublessor. Sublessee shall save harmless and indemnify Sublessor against any
claims by anyone other than the Advisors with whom it has so dealt or by whom
its attention was called to the Premises for a commission or fee arising out of
the execution and delivery of this Sublease or out of negotiations between
Sublessor and Sublessee with respect to the Premises.
10.5 WHEN SUBLEASE BECOMES BINDING
Employees or agents of Sublessor have no authority to make or agree to make
a lease or any other agreement or undertaking in connection herewith. The

hereof by both Sublessor and Sublessee.
10.6 PROVISIONS BINDING, ETC.

each provision of this Sublease to be performed by Sublessee shall be construed
to be both a covenant and a condition. The reference contained to the
successors and assigns of Sublessee is not intended to constitute a consent to
assignment by Sublessee, but has reference only to those instances in which

consent is required by the provisions of this Sublease. The persons executing
this Sublease on behalf of each party warrant that each party is duly organized
under the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and such persons are

10.10 INTEGRATION; AMENDMENT
This Sublease together with all the Exhibits attached hereto supercedes all
other agreements or memoranda written or oral between the parties and cannot be
modified or altered except by written agreement signed by both Sublessor and
Sublessee.
10.11 RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER
10.11.1 Sublessor assigns to Sublessee all of its right, title, and interest,
to Sublessor's rights under Section 31 of the Prime Lease.
10.11.2 Sublessor additionally agrees to offer first to Sublessee any and all
space in the Building currently occupied by Sublessor on the following terms:
(a) the first (1st) floor Sublessor space at a rental rate equal to 85% of the
market rate (such market rate to be equal to the market rate of the other space
offered pursuant to the option set forth in this Subsection on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Sublease) prior to offering any such space to
anyone and (b) at 95% of the market rate on an "as-is" basis for all other
space. For the purposes of this Sublease, "market rate" shall mean the
prevailing rents for comparable rental property in the Route 128 area in effect
as of the commencement of the proposed term, including, without limitation,
consideration of the then current allowances for tenant improvements and other
concessions granted by landlords, as determined by Sublessor. The termination
date for any space taken pursuant to this Subsection shall be co-terminus with
Sublessee's Sublease term.
If Sublessor and Sublessee cannot agree upon the market rate, then the
determination as to market rate shall, upon election of either the Sublessor or
the Sublessee, be submitted to arbitration, as follows: market rate shall be
determined by impartial arbitrators, one to be chosen by the Sublessor, one to
be chosen by Sublessee and one to be selected if necessary, as below provided.
The unanimous written decision of the two first chosen (without the selection
and participation of the third arbitrator) or otherwise the average of the
amount determined by each of the three arbitrators chosen and selected as
aforesaid, shall be conclusive and binding upon Sublessor and Sublessee.
Sublessor and Sublessee shall each notify the other of its chosen arbitrator
within ten (10) days following the call for arbitration and, unless such two
arbitrators shall have reached a unanimous decision within thirty days after
their designation, they shall so notify the Boston Office of the American
Arbitration Association and request an impartial third arbitrator (who shall be
an impartial real estate appraiser dealing with commercial properties) to
determine the market rate applicable to the option space. Such third arbitrator
and the first two chosen arbitrators shall render their decision within thirty
days of the appointment of the third arbitrator. The decision of the panel
shall be final and binding as to market rate. Sublessor and Sublessee shall
divide equally all expenses of the arbitrators and arbitration.
If the market rate has not been established before the commencement of
Sublessee's obligation to pay rent based upon such market rate, Sublessee shall
pay rent under the lease based upon the market rate designated by Sublessor,
less ten percent (10%), until either (1) agreement of the parties as to the
market rate or (2) decision of the arbitrators, as the case may be, at which
time
<PAGE>
9/15/95
Sublessee shall pay any underpayment of rent to Sublessor, or Sublessor shall
refund any overpayment of rent to Sublessee.
Sublessee shall have a period of ten (10) business days from the receipt of
such written notice of offer to exercise said right by providing written notice
to Sublessor of its exercise. In the event Sublessee does not exercise such
right, Sublessee's right of first offer as to other space shall not be affected.
Should Sublessee elect to exercise any right to additional space the parties
will enter into an amendment to this Sublease within 60 days after such
election.
