I.* LESSEE shall provide to LESSOR and maintain throughout the entire lease term an Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit negotiable on sight in the amount of $26,500 as security for LESSEE’S performance under the preceding four paragraphs and all other obligations under this lease.

Said letter of credit or the amount of the letter of credit in cash shall be delivered to LESSOR upon LESSEE’S execution of this lease. If cash is paid, LESSOR shall then refund it to LESSEE upon delivery to LESSOR of a letter of credit that fully complies with this paragraph. LESSEE shall pay LESSOR for all legal and administrative expenses incurred by LESSOR in connection with said letter of credit. The security required to be delivered to LESSOR pursuant to this paragraph shall be in addition to the cash security deposit provided for in Section 2 above.

J.* The preceding five paragraphs are key considerations of this lease.

K. Notwithstanding anything in Paragraph F above to the contrary, if at any time during the initial term of this lease (only), any of the HVAC equipment serving the laboratory portion of the premises (only) ceases to operate notwithstanding LESSEE’S maintenance of said equipment, then, provided LESSEE is not then in arrears of any rent or invoice payment or otherwise in default of this lease, and provided an independent, licensed, arm’s length third-party HVAC technician certifies to LESSOR in writing that (a) LESSEE used, operated, and maintained said equipment throughout the term of this lease in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations and all terms of this lease, and (b) said HVAC equipment ceases to operate solely as a result of reasonable wear and tear, then LESSOR or LESSOR’S contractor (only) shall, at LESSOR’S sole discretion, repair and/or replace said equipment, and LESSOR shall be responsible for the payment of all charges to repair and/or replace said equipment, except that LESSEE shall in each

 


 

instance of repair and/or replacement, be responsible for said charges not to exceed the first $3,500 incurred by LESSOR to effectuate each such repair and/or replacement (said charge in each such instance, the “Initial Charge”). In each such instance, LESSEE shall pay the initial Charge to LESSOR within 10 days following receipt of LESSOR’S invoice therefor.

LESSEE agrees that the roof is a common area of the building and that no other work shall be carried on or any other equipment installed on the roof without the prior written consent of LESSOR.

M The annual base rent as provided in Section J above does no! include any charge for use of approximately 3,272 square feet (including 4.7% common area) shown as the hatched area on the mutually agreed upon plan attached hereto (the “Hatched Area”) because LESSEE has represented that LESSEE (i) will not use the Hatched Area and (ii) intends only to use the approximately 3,890 square feet (including 4.7% common area) of unhatched area. LESSEE may, however, elect at any time to use the Hatched Area or any portion thereof, and if LESSEE does use the Hatched Area or any portion thereof in any way other than to occasionally pass through the Hatched Area, then the annual base rent shall be immediately increased by $111,084 for the balance of the lease term.

N.* if LESSEE has not previously elected to use the Hatched Area or any portion thereof, LESSOR may, at LESSOR’s sole expense, remove the Hatched Area from the premises at any time during the lease term by serving LESSEE with five days’ prior written notice to that effect. LESSEE shall move its furniture, furnishings, equipment, inventory, and other property as requested by LESSOR to enable LESSOR to carry out any modifications required to remove the Hatched Area from the premises, and LESSEE shall indemnify and hold harmless LESSOR and LESSOR’S agents, employees and contractors from any and all injury or damage arising out of this work. In the event LESSOR removes the Hatched Area from the premises, the size of the premises shall be decreased by 3,272 square feet (including 4,7% common area) and the base rent set forth in Section 1 above shall remain the same.

O. The parties acknowledge and agree that the utilities serving the Hatched Area, are not separated from the utilities serving the remainder of Suite B, and that LESSEE shall pay all utility charges for the entire suite. If LESSOR leases the Hatched Area to a third, party for any use other than storage, LESSEE’S monthly rent shall be reduced by $409 throughout the third party’s occupancy in order to compensate LESSEE for such third party’s utility usage. Alternatively, LESSOR may, at its election and expense, separate (the utilities serving the Hatched Area and the remainder of Suite B, in which case, LESSEE will not receive a reduction in base rent.

P. LESSOR may elect to cancel this lease for any reason or no reason at all, to be effective on or after December 30, 2016, by serving LESSEE with not less than 90 days’ prior written notice to that effect.

Q.* Sudbury Research Center, LLC, OWNER of the premises referred to in Section 28 above, hereby consents to this lease, and, provided LESSEE is not then in default of this lease, agrees to recognize all rights of LESSEE hereunder.
