The Monthly Parking Charge shall be the fair market rate from time to time for
structured parking spaces in Class A office buildings the vicinity of the
Building, as reasonably determined in good faith by Landlord, which the parties
agree shall be $200 per month for calendar year 2002. The Monthly Parking Charge
may be altered from time to time but in no event more than once a year, by
written notice given to Tenant at least fifteen days prior to the beginning of
any calendar month.

Landlord reserves the right from time to time, without unreasonable interference
with Tenant's use, and with reasonable, prior written notice to Tenant (except
that in the case of emergency such notice requirement will be deemed satisfied
if Landlord uses commercially reasonable efforts in light of the nature of the
emergency to place a telephone call to the following telephone numbers:
617-562-4555 and 617-560-6834 prior to such entry (and speak with or leave a
message for Tenant)) (i) to install, repair, replace, use, maintain and relocate
for service to the Premises and to other parts of the Building, or either,
building service fixtures and equipment wherever located in the Building or on
the Lot (provided that to the extent practicable any such fixture and equipment
shall be placed above the finished ceiling, within columns, inside demising
walls, beneath the floor slab or otherwise not visible within the Premises), and
(ii) to alter or relocate any common facilities (provided that any altered or
relocated common facilities shall be of substantially the same quality and
convenience as the facilities being altered or relocated). Without limiting the
foregoing, Parking Spaces may be temporarily relocated from time to time by
Landlord with reasonable, prior written notice to Tenant (except that no prior

                                      - 8 -
<Page>

notice is required in the case of emergency) to a location within reasonable
walking distance of the Building in the event of emergencies or (after
reasonable notice) in the event of required repairs or maintenance work.
Landlord also reserves the right at all reasonable times upon reasonable advance
notice (except that in the case of emergency such notice requirement will be
deemed satisfied if Landlord uses commercially reasonable efforts in light of
the nature of the emergency to place a telephone call to the following telephone
numbers: 617-562-4555 and 617-560-6834 prior to such entry and speak with or
leave a message for Tenant) to enter upon the Premises, inspect the same and in
Landlord's discretion to make repairs, alterations or substitutions for the
protection and maintenance of the Building. Landlord further reserves the right
upon at least one (1) business day's prior notice to show the Premises to
others. In exercising any of its rights under this Section, Landlord shall not
unreasonably obstruct Tenant's access to or egress from the Premises, Landlord
shall use reasonable efforts to perform or cause such work to be performed in
such manner as to minimize any disruption to Tenant's use and occupancy of the
Premises and to minimize any disruption to Tenant's business (provided the
forgoing shall not be interpreted so as to require Landlord to incur overtime or
similar costs).

2.2     TERM.

To have and to hold for a period (the "Term") commencing on the Term
Commencement Date (as defined in Section 1.1 hereof) and continuing for the
Term, unless sooner terminated as provided herein. Notwithstanding the fact that
the Term shall not commence until the Term Commencement Date, from and after the
Tenant Access Date, Tenant shall have access to the Premises for the purposes of
constructing the Initial Tenant Improvements and installing furniture, fixtures
and equipment, and Tenant shall comply with all of the terms, provisions and
conditions of this Lease, other than the obligation to pay Annual Base Rent and
Rent on account of Landlord's Operating Costs and Real Estate Taxes (as defined
in Article IV).

Upon Landlord's written request, Tenant will execute a certificate acknowledging
the Term Commencement Date and the obligation of Tenant to pay Rent hereunder,
promptly upon the occurrence of the Term Commencement Date, and in no event
later than ten (10) business days following receipt of Landlord's proper request
for such certificate.

2.3     EXTENSION OPTIONS.

                (a)     Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term for two
 (2) additional periods of five (5) years (each an "Extension Term") commencing
 upon the expiration of the original Term referred to in Section 2.2 (the
 "Original Term") or the preceding Extension Term, as applicable, provided that
 Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of Tenant's irrevocable exercise of
 such option at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days prior to the
 expiration of the then existing Term, and provided further that at both the
 time of the giving such notice and at the time of the commencement of the
 applicable Extension Term: (a) the Lease is in full force and effect, (b)
 Tenant is not in default beyond any applicable grace or cure period in the
 performance or observance of any of the terms and provisions of this Lease on
 the part of the Tenant to be performed or observed, and (c) Tenant has neither
 assigned the Lease nor sublet more than 25% of the rentable square feet of the
 Premises (other than a Permitted Transfer (as defined below) and subleases
 which have expired or terminated as of the date Tenant exercises its extension
 option) (the foregoing clauses (a) - (b) being collectively referred to as the
 "Article

                                      - 9 -
<Page>

II Conditions"). Prior to the exercise by Tenant of such an option, the
expression "Term" shall mean the Original Term, and after the exercise by Tenant
of each option, the expression "Term" shall mean the Original Term as it has
been extended by the Extension Term. All the terms, covenants, conditions,
provisions and agreements in the Lease contained shall be applicable to each
Extension Term, except that (i) Landlord shall not be obligated to undertake any
Landlord Work or leasehold improvements or otherwise prepare the Premises for
Tenant or provide any tenant improvement allowance to Tenant, (ii) the Annual
Base Rent shall be as set forth below, and (iii) in no event shall Tenant have
the right to extend the Term for more than two (2) Extension Terms. If Tenant
shall give notice of its exercise of an option to extend in the manner and
within the time period provided aforesaid, the Term shall be extended upon the
giving of such notice without the requirement of any further action on the part
of either Landlord or Tenant, except that the Term shall not be so extended if
Tenant timely makes the election set forth in Section 2.3(c)(A) below. If Tenant
shall fail to give timely notice of the exercise of any such option as
aforesaid, Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term of this Lease, time
being of the essence of the foregoing provisions.

                (b)     The Annual Base Rent payable during each Extension Term
shall be the amount which is the greater of (i) the Annual Base Rent in effect
for the Lease Year immediately preceding the commencement of the Extension Term
or (ii) the Fair Market Rent for the Premises, as defined below and as
determined below, as of the commencement of the applicable Extension Term. If
for any reason the Annual Base Rent payable during the applicable Extension Term
has not been determined as of the commencement of the Extension Term, until the
Annual Base Rent for the Extension Term is determined Tenant shall pay Annual
Base Rent at a rate equal to the average of the Fair Market Rent specified by
Landlord's Appraiser pursuant to subparagraph (d) below and the Fair Market Rent
specified by Tenant's Appraiser pursuant to subparagraph (d) below, or at the
rate specified by either of such Appraisers if the other has not so specified a
Fair Market Rent by the date it is required to do so, but in no event less than
Annual Base Rent payable during the immediately preceding Lease Year. Within ten
(10) days after determination of the Annual Base Rent in accordance with the
provisions hereof, an appropriate adjustment, if any, shall be made between
Landlord and Tenant.

For purposes hereof, the "Fair Market Rent" shall mean ninety-five percent (95%)
of the fair market rent for Class A office use of the Premises, free and clear
of this Lease, as of the commencement of the applicable Extension Term under
market conditions then existing, taking into account all relevant factors and
considerations for a market lease transaction, including Tenant's Pro Rata Share
of Operating Costs (as defined in Section 4.2.3 below), Tenant's Pro Rata Share
of Real Estate Taxes (as defined in Section 4.2.3 below), the base year for the
Operating Costs and the Real Estate Taxes (which shall be reset to a base year
of calendar year 2009 for the first Extension Term and a base year of calendar
year 2014 for the second Extension Term), and the then current market rental
rates for leases of comparable space in comparable buildings in the East
Cambridge/Kendall Square area to new tenants. Fair Market Rent shall be
determined pursuant to the following provisions:

                (c)     Landlord shall give Tenant notice of its determination
of the Fair Market Rent for the Premises for the applicable period by the later
of (i) three hundred thirty-five (335) days prior to the commencement of the
Extension Term, or (ii) 60 days after Tenant notifies

                                     - 10 -
<Page>

Landlord of its election to exercise an extension option. If Tenant disagrees
with Landlord's determination of the Fair Market Rent, Tenant may, in its sole
discretion, elect, by notice given to Landlord within thirty (30) days after
Landlord's notice of the Fair Market Rent is given ("Tenant's Rent Notice"),
either to (A) revoke Tenant's exercise of its option to extend in which case
this Lease shall terminate on the scheduled expiration date of the then current
Term in accordance with the terms hereof, or (B) have the Fair Market Rent
determined by the appraisal process (the "Appraisal Process") set forth in
subparagraph (d) below, in which case Tenant's Rent Notice shall include the
name of Tenant's Appraiser (defined in subparagraph (d) below). The Fair Market
Rent determination pursuant to Section 2.3 shall be binding on both Landlord and
Tenant. If Tenant does not give a Tenant's Rent Notice within such thirty (30)
day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have agreed with Landlord's determination
of the Fair Market Rent for the applicable Extension Term, which determination
shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant, and to have waived any right to
elect either of the options set forth at clauses (A) and (B) above. If Tenant
gives a Tenant's Rent Notice within such thirty (30) day period but such notice
does not expressly make the election set forth in Section 2.3(c)(A), Tenant
shall have waived any right to revoke its exercise of its option to extend and
the Term shall remain extended for the applicable Extension Term.

                (d)     If Tenant shall timely give a Tenant's Rent Notice
 making the election set forth in Section 2.3(c)(B), the following procedures
 shall apply to such determination of Fair Market Rent:

                        (1)     Within fourteen (14) days of Tenant's Rent
        Notice, Landlord will choose one Appraiser. "Appraiser" shall mean a
        disinterested real estate professional of recognized competence in the
        greater Boston area who has at least ten (10) years experience in the
        leasing or appraising of properties in the Cambridge, MA area. If the
        two Appraisers are appointed by the parties as stated in this Section,
        such Appraisers shall meet promptly and attempt to set the Fair Market
        Rent. If such Appraisers are unable to agree on the Fair Market Rent
        within thirty (30) days after appointment of the second Appraiser, then
        within five (5) days after the expiration of such thirty day period, on
        a date selected by the Appraisers, both of the Appraisers and a
        representative of Landlord and a representative of Tenant shall meet at
        the offices of Landlord in Boston, Massachusetts. At such meeting, each
        of the Appraisers shall set forth his or her determination of the Fair
        Market Rent in a separate writing executed by such Appraiser, and then
        simultaneously Landlord's Appraiser shall deliver its written
        determination to Tenant's representative and Tenant's Appraiser shall
        deliver its determination to Landlord's representative. If the higher of
        the Appraisers' determinations is 105% or less of the amount set forth
        in the lower determination, the average of the two determinations shall
        be the Fair Market Rent. In the event the higher of the two
        determinations is more than 105% of the amount set forth in the lower
        determination, the two Appraisers shall within ten (10) days after the
        expiration of such 30-day period, appoint a third Appraiser satisfying
        the above qualifications. If the two Appraisers cannot agree on a third
        Appraiser, they shall immediately apply to the President of the Greater
        Boston Real Estate Board or, if the same refuses to act, to a court of
        competent jurisdiction, to select a third Appraiser satisfying the above
        qualifications. The third Appraiser, however selected, shall not have
        acted previously in any capacity for either Landlord or Tenant. If
        either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an Appraiser within the
        allotted time, and such

                                     - 11 -
<Page>

        failure continues for ten (10) business days after written notice given
        to the failing party, the single Appraiser who has been appointed shall
        determine the Fair Market Rent for the applicable Extension Period. Each
        party shall bear the costs of its own Appraiser and one-half of the cost
        of the third Appraiser.

                        (2)     The third Appraiser shall conduct his own
        investigation of the Fair Market Rent, shall consider relevant
        information supplied to him by Landlord or Tenant, and shall be
        instructed not to advise either party of his determination of the Fair
        Market Rent except as follows: When the third Appraiser has made his
        determination, which shall occur within thirty (30) days after the
        selection of the third Appraiser, he shall set forth his determination
        in writing and deliver copies to the parties set forth in this Lease to
        receive notices.

                If the value determined by the third Appraiser is the average of
        the values proposed by Landlord's Appraiser and Tenant's Appraiser, the
        third Appraiser's determination of Fair Market Rent shall be the Fair
        Market Rent. If such is not the case, Fair Market Rent shall be the
        average of (a) the Fair Market Rent proposed by the third Appraiser and
        (b) the Fair Market Rent proposed by either Landlord's Appraiser or
        Tenant's Appraiser, whichever is closest to the determination of Fair
        Market Rent by the third Appraiser.

2.4     THIRD FLOOR EAST EXPANSION OPTION

Provided that at the time Tenant exercises its expansion right under this
Section 2.4 the Article II Conditions are satisfied, Tenant shall have the
option (the "Third Floor East Expansion Option") exercisable by written notice
given no later than March 31, 2003 (the "Third Floor East Expansion Option
Notice") to add to the Premises the space located on the third floor (east) of
the Building as shown on Exhibit A-2, which the parties conclusively agree
contains 15,969 square feet of rentable floor area (the "Third Floor East
Expansion Space"). All of the terms and conditions of this Lease shall apply to
such Third Floor East Expansion Space, except as provided in this Section 2.4.
The date on which the Third Floor East Expansion Space shall be added to the
Premises shall be five (5) business days after the effective delivery of the
Third Floor East Expansion Option Notice; provided that Tenant's obligation to
pay Annual Base Rent and Rent on Account of Landlord's Operating Costs and Real
Estate Taxes on account of the Third Floor East Expansion Space shall not
commence until the "Third Floor East Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date" as
defined in the next sentence. The date on which Tenant shall be obligated to pay
Annual Base Rent and Rent on account of Landlord's Operating Costs and Real
Estate Taxes on account of the Third Floor East Expansion Space shall be the
earlier of (x) April 1, 2003 and (y) 90 days after effective delivery of the
Third Floor East Expansion Option Notice (the "Third Floor East Expansion Space
Rent Commencement Date"), on the same terms applicable to the original Premises
described in Section 1.1, with Annual Base Rent at the same per square foot
rates then applicable to the original Premises described in Section 1.1, and as
increased, as applicable, so that at all times the per square foot rate
applicable to the Third Floor East Expansion Space shall be the same as the per
square foot rate then applicable to the remainder of the Premises. By way of
clarification, during Lease Years 1 and 2 the applicable square foot rate for
the Annual Base Rent is $33.96, during Lease Year 3 it is $34.96 and during
Lease Years 4, 5, 6 and 7 it is $35.96, in each case per square foot of rentable
floor

                                     - 12 -
<Page>

area per year (i.e., $542,307, $558,276 and $574,245 per annum, respectively,
for the Third Floor East Expansion Space), and the Operating Cost Base and Real
Estate Tax Base will likewise remain those set forth in Section 1.1.

Landlord will provide Tenant with an allowance in the amount of $558,915 (the
"Third Floor East Tenant Allowance") to be used for any initial tenant
improvements to be constructed by or for Tenant in the Third Floor East
Expansion Space. Such improvements shall be made in the manner and subject to
the procedure set forth in Section 3.2 for the construction of the Initial
Tenant Improvements and the Third Floor East Tenant Allowance shall be disbursed
in accordance with and subject to the procedure and conditions set forth in
Section 3.2 for the disbursement of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, it being
understood that, (i) as applied to the Third Floor East Expansion Space,
references in Section 3.2 to the Initial Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to
mean references to a general office build out of the Third Floor East Expansion
Space pursuant to and plans specifications approved by Landlord pursuant to
Section 3.5, (ii) references in Section 3.2 to the Premises shall be deemed to
mean references to the Third Floor East Expansion Space, (iii) references in
Section 3.2 to the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be deemed to mean
references to the Third Floor East Tenant Allowance, and (iv) the full amount of
the Third Floor East Tenant Allowance must be properly requisitioned as
specifically provided for in Section 3.2 within one year of the Third Floor East
Rent Commencement Date.

Landlord hereby represents and warrants that Landlord has not granted and will
not grant a lease, option, right to first offer, right to first refusal or any
other right to occupy the Third Floor East Expansion Space.

Landlord shall deliver the Third Floor East Expansion Space in its "as is,"
"where is" condition, without representation, warranty or guaranty, express or
implied.

As of the Third Floor East Rent Commencement Date, the number of Parking Spaces
shall be increased in number by 22, and the Tenant's Pro Rata Share shall be
recalculated to be a percentage, to the second decimal point, representing the
percentage equivalent of a fraction, the numerator of which is the Rentable
Floor Area of the Premises and the denominator of which is the Rentable Floor
Area of the Building.

Upon the addition of the Third Floor East Expansion Space to the Premises, all
references to the "Premises" in this Lease shall be deemed to mean and include
reference to the Third Floor East Expansion Space and, by way of example, any
Extension Option thereafter arising shall apply to the entire Premises so
defined, and not to any lesser portion thereof.

Landlord's failure to deliver and any delay in delivering the Third Floor East
Expansion Space for any reason beyond Landlord's control shall not give rise to
any liability of Landlord hereunder, and shall not affect the full force and
validity of this Lease

2.4A    FIRST FLOOR EAST EXPANSION OPTION

                                     - 13 -
<Page>

This Section 2.4A shall be applicable if and only if Tenant timely and validly
exercises the Third Floor East Expansion Option set forth in Section 2.4; in all
other cases, this Section 2.4A shall be null and void and have no force or
effect.

Provided Tenant has timely and validly exercised the Third Floor East Expansion
Option as set forth in Section 2.4, then at least three hundred sixty-five (365)
days prior to the Estimated Delivery Date (as hereinafter defined) for the First
Floor East Expansion Space, Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notice
(the "First Floor East Notice") of the Estimated Delivery Date. The "Estimated
Delivery Date" shall be the date specified as such by Landlord in the First
Floor East Notice, which date shall be no earlier than the first day of the 37th
full calendar month of the Term and no later than the first day of the 61st full
calendar month of the Term, on which Landlord believes it can deliver to Tenant
the First Floor East Expansion Space, which the parties unconditionally agree
consists of 8,986 rentable square feet, shown on the plan attached hereto as
Exhibit A-2. Provided that at the time Tenant exercises its expansion right
under this Section 2.4A the Article II Conditions are satisfied, Tenant has
neither assigned the Lease nor sublet more than 25% of the Premises (other than
a Permitted Transfer and subleases which have expired or terminated as of the
date Tenant exercises its extension option), and Tenant has timely and validly
exercised the Third Floor East Expansion Option, then Tenant shall have the
option (the "First Floor East Expansion Option") exercisable by written notice
given to Landlord within thirty (30) days of the First Floor East Notice (the
"First Floor East Expansion Option Notice") to add to the Premises the First
Floor East Expansion Space. All of the terms and conditions of this Lease shall
apply to such First Floor East Expansion Space, except as provided in this
Section 2.4A. The date on which the First Floor East Expansion Space shall be
added to the Premises and the date on which Tenant shall be obligated to pay
rent on account of the First Floor East Expansion Space shall be the earlier of
(A) the later of (x) the Estimated Delivery Date and (y) the date on which
Landlord delivers the First Floor East Expansion Space free and clear of
occupants or (B) the date Tenant occupies any portion of the First Floor East
Expansion Space for the conduct of its business (the "First Floor East Expansion
Space Commencement Date"). Tenant shall be obligated to pay rent for the First
Floor East Expansion Space on the same terms applicable to the original Premises
described in Section 1.1, with Annual Base Rent at the same per square foot
rates then applicable to the original Premises described in Section 1.1, and as
increased, as applicable, so that at all times the per square foot rate
applicable to the First Floor East Expansion Space shall be the same as the per
square foot rate then applicable to the remainder of the Premises. By way of
clarification, during Lease Years 4, 5 and 6 the applicable square foot rate for
the Annual Base Rent is $35.96 per square foot of rentable floor area per year
(i.e., $323,137 per annum for the First Floor East Expansion Space), and the
Operating Cost Base and Real Estate Tax Base will likewise remain those set
forth in Section 1.1.

Landlord will provide Tenant with an allowance in the amount of the First Floor
East Tenant Improvement Allowance Amount (hereinafter defined) to be used for
any initial tenant improvements constructed by or for Tenant in the First Floor
East Expansion Space. Such improvements shall be made in the manner and subject
to the procedure set forth in Section 3.2 for the construction of the Initial
Tenant Improvements and the allowance shall be disbursed in accordance with and
subject to the procedure and conditions set forth in Section 3.2 for the
disbursement of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, it being understood that (i)
as applied to the First Floor East Expansion Space, references in Section 3.2 to
the Initial Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to mean references to a general
office build out of the First Floor

                                     - 14 -
<Page>

East Expansion Space pursuant to plans and specifications approved by Landlord
Pursuant to Section 3.5 (ii) references in Section 3.2 to the Premises shall be
deemed to mean references to the First Floor East Expansion Space, (iii)
references in Section 3.2 to the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be deemed to
mean references to the First Floor East Tenant Improvement Allowance, and (iv)
the full amount of the First Floor East Tenant Improvement Allowance must be
properly requisitioned within one year of the First Floor East Expansion Space
Commence Date as specifically provided for in Section 3.2. The "First Floor East
Tenant Improvement Allowance" shall be an amount equal to the product of (A)
8,986, being the number of rentable square feet of floor area in the First Floor
East Expansion Space, multiplied by (B) a number which is the product of $35
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months
remaining in the Term at the time of the First Floor East Expansion Space
Commencement Date and the denominator of which is 84.

Landlord hereby represents and warrants that Landlord has not granted and will
not grant a lease, option, right of first offer, right of first refusal or any
other right to occupy the First Floor East Expansion Space which is prior to
Tenant's rights hereunder. It is agreed that Landlord shall have the right to
lease the First Floor East Expansion Space to others for occupancy prior to the
Estimated Delivery Date, provided that the initial term of any such lease
expires before the Estimated Delivery Date and any extension rights are
conditioned on Tenant not exercising its First Floor East Expansion Option.

Landlord shall deliver the First Floor East Expansion Space in its "As Is"
"Where Is" condition, without representation, warranty or guaranty, express or
implied.

As of the First Floor East Commencement Date, the number of parking spaces shall
be increased in number by 12, and the Tenant's Pro Rata Share shall be
recalculated to be a percentage, to the second decimal point, representing the
percentage equivalent of a fraction, the numerator of which is the Rentable
Floor Area of the Premises and the denominator of which is the Rentable Floor
Area of the Building.

Otherwise, upon the addition of the First Floor East Expansion Space to the
Premises, all references in this Lease to the "Premises" shall be deemed to mean
and include references to the First Floor East Expansion Space, and, by way of
example, any Extension Option thereafter arising shall apply to the entire
Premises so defined, and not to any lesser portion thereof.

Landlord's failure to deliver and any delay in delivering the First Floor East
Expansion Space for any reason beyond Landlord's control (including, without
limitation, the continued occupancy of any such space by a prior occupant
thereof or the holding over by any tenant whose lease has expired or been
terminated) shall not give rise to any liability of Landlord hereunder, and
shall not effect the full force and validity of this Lease. Landlord, in the
case of any occupant who holds over for more than thirty (30) days, agrees to
prosecute with due diligence appropriate legal proceedings for the removal of
such occupant, and in all other cases agrees to use reasonable and diligent
efforts to make such space available to Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in the event that Tenant has validly and timely exercised the First Floor East
Expansion Option, and Landlord fails to deliver to Tenant the First Floor East
Expansion Space by the Estimated Delivery Date, and such failure continues for
one (1) month, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for Tenant's actual Third Party
out-of-pocket architectural and engineering

                                     - 15 -
<Page>

costs directly caused by Landlord's failure to timely deliver the First Floor
East Expansion Space, up to a maximum aggregate reimbursement for the First
Floor East Expansion Space of $26,958 (i.e. $3.00 per square foot of rentable
floor area). Further, in the event that Tenant has validly and timely exercised
the First Floor East Expansion Option, and Landlord fails to deliver to Tenant
the First Floor East Expansion Space by the Estimated Delivery Date, and such
failure continues for one hundred five (105) days, then Tenant shall have the
right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to revoke and rescind its First Floor
East Expansion Option Notice by giving written notice to Landlord within the
first ten (10) business days following the expiration of such period, provided
that such notice shall have no force or effect and the First Floor East
Expansion Option Notice shall not be revoked or rescinded if Landlord delivers
the First Floor East Expansion Space within 30 days followings its receipt of
such notice. The reimbursement and termination rights specifically set forth
herein shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy in the event Landlord fails
to timely deliver the First Floor East Expansion Space.

The parties acknowledge that Landlord has the right to, and intends to,
initially lease the First Floor East Expansion Space to one or more other
tenants for occupancy prior to the period during which Tenant has the option to
occupy the First Floor East Expansion Space pursuant to the foregoing
provisions. If Landlord leases the space to more than one tenant, Landlord shall
use reasonable efforts to have the various leases be coterminous and, in any
event, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to have the Estimated Delivery Date
occur early during the time period during which the same is permitted to occur
as set forth above; provided, however, that except as expressly set forth herein
otherwise, in no event will Landlord be restricted in the terms or conditions
upon which it is entitled to lease the First Floor East Expansion Space as set
forth in this paragraph, including, without limitation, with respect to the term
thereof. In the event Landlord leases the First Floor East Expansion Space to
more than one tenant and the leases are not coterminous, or Landlord only leases
a portion of the First Floor East Expansion Space, then Landlord may deliver
separate First Floor East Notices for different portions of the First Floor East
Expansion Space, and such notice(s) may set forth different Estimated Delivery
Dates for different portions of the First Floor East Expansion Space. In the
event this occurs, the provisions of this Section 2.4A shall apply separately to
each such portion of the First Floor East Expansion Space and each such
Estimated Delivery Date, with appropriate prorations (including without
limitation with respect to tenant improvement allowances and parking spaces)
made on a square foot basis.

If Tenant fails to timely give a First Floor East Expansion Option Notice within
thirty (30) days following a First Floor East Notice, Tenant shall be deemed to
have waived its option rights hereunder with respect to the space offered in the
First Floor East Notice. If Tenant waives or is deemed to have waived its option
rights with respect to the space offered in a First Floor East Notice, Tenant
shall have no further right or option with respect to such space and the
provisions of this Section 2.4A shall no longer be applicable thereto. Tenant
shall have no right to give a First Floor East Expansion Option Notice with
respect to a portion, but less than all, of the space offered in a First Floor
East Notice.

2.5     EIGHTH FLOOR EAST EXPANSION OPTION

Provided that at the time Tenant exercises its expansion right under this
Section 2.5 the Article II Conditions are satisfied and Tenant has neither
assigned the Lease or sublet more than 25% of

                                     - 16 -
<Page>

the Premises (other than Permitted Transfer), Tenant shall have the option (the
"Eighth Floor East Expansion Option") exercisable by written notice given no
later than October 1, 2006 (the "Eighth Floor East Expansion Option Notice") to
add to the Premises the space located on the eighth floor (east) of the Building
shown on Exhibit A-3, which the parties conclusively agree contains 20,622
square feet of rentable floor area. All of the terms and conditions of this
Lease shall apply to such Eighth Floor East Expansion Space, except as provided
in this Section 2.5. The date on which the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space
shall be added to the Premises, and the date on which Tenant shall be obligated
to pay Rent on account of the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space shall be the
earlier of (A) the later of (x) July 1, 2007 and (y) the date on which Landlord
delivers the Eighth Floor Expansion Space free and clear of any occupants and
(B) the date Tenant occupies any portion of the Eighth Floor East Expansion
Space for the conduct of its business (the "Eighth Floor East Expansion Space
Commencement Date"). Tenant shall be obligated to pay Rent on account of the
Eighth Floor East Expansion Space on the same terms applicable to the original
Premises described in Section 1.1, with Annual Base Rent at the same per square
foot rates then applicable to the original Premises described in Section 1.1,
and as increased, as applicable, so that at all times the per square foot rate
applicable to the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space shall be the same as the per
square foot rate then applicable to the remainder of the Premises. By way of
clarification, during Lease Years 5, 6 and 7 the applicable square foot rate for
the Annual Base Rent is $35.96 per square foot of rentable floor area per year
(i.e., $741,567 per annum for the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space), and the
Operating Cost Base and Real Estate Tax Base will likewise remain those set
forth in Section 1.1.

Landlord will provide Tenant with an allowance for the Eighth Floor East
Expansion Space in the amount of $231,997 (i.e., $11.25 per square foot of
rentable floor area of the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space) (the "Eighth Floor
East Tenant Improvement Allowance") to be used for any initial tenant
improvements constructed in the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space by or for
Tenant. Such improvements shall be made in the manner and subject to the
procedures set forth in Section 3.2 for the construction of the Initial Tenant
Improvements, and the allowance shall be disbursed in accordance with and
subject to the procedures and conditions set forth in Section 3.2 of the Lease
for the disbursements of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, it being understood
that (i) as applied to the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space, references in
Section 3.2 to the Initial Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to mean
references to the general office build out of the Eighth Floor East Expansion
Space pursuant to plans and specifications approved by Landlord pursuant to
Section 3.5, (ii) references in Section 3.2 to the Premises shall be deemed to
mean references to the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space, (iii) references in
Section 3.2 to the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be deemed to mean
references to the Eighth Floor East Tenant Improvement Allowance, and (iv) the
full amount of the Eighth Floor East Tenant Improvement Allowance must be
properly requisitioned as specifically provided for in Section 3.2. within one
year of the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space Commencement Date.

Landlord hereby represents and warrants that Landlord has not granted and will
not grant a lease, option, right of first offer, right of first refusal or any
other right to occupy or use the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space which is
prior to Tenant's rights hereunder. It is agreed that Landlord shall have the
right to lease the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space to others for occupancy
prior to the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space Commencement Date, provided that
the initial term of any such lease expires before July 1, 2007 and any extension
rights are conditioned on Tenant not exercising its Eighth Floor East Expansion
Option.

                                     - 17 -
<Page>

Landlord shall deliver the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space in its "As Is"
"Where Is" condition, without representation, warranty or guaranty, express or
implied.

As of the Eighth Floor East Space Commencement Date, the number of Parking
Spaces shall be increased in number by 29, and the Tenant's Pro Rata Share shall
be recalculated to be a percentage, to the second decimal point, representing
the percentage equivalent of a fraction, the numerator of which is the Rentable
Floor Area of the Premises and the denominator of which is the Rentable Floor
Area of the Building.

Upon the addition of the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space to the Premises, all
references in this Lease to the "Premises" shall be deemed to mean and include
references to the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space, and, by way of example, any
Extension Option thereafter arising shall apply to the entire Premises so
defined, and not to any lesser portion thereof.

Landlord's failure to deliver and any delay in delivering the Eighth Floor East
Expansion Space for any reason beyond Landlord's control (including, without
limitation, the continued occupancy of any such space by a prior occupant
thereof or the holding over of any tenant whose lease has expired or been
terminated) shall not give rise to any liability of Landlord hereunder, and
shall not affect the full force and validity of this Lease. Landlord, in the
case of any occupant who holds over for more than thirty (30) days, agrees to
prosecute with due diligence appropriate legal proceedings for the removal of
such occupant, and in all other cases agrees to use reasonable and diligent
efforts to make such space available to Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in the event Tenant has validly and timely exercised the Eighth Floor East
Expansion Option and Landlord fails to deliver to Tenant the Eighth Floor East
Expansion Space by July 1, 2007, and such failure continues for one (1) month,
Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for Tenant's actual Third Party out-of-pocket
architectural and engineering costs directly caused by Landlord's failure to
timely deliver the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space, up to a maximum aggregate
reimbursement for the Eight Floor East Expansion Space of $41,244 (i.e. $2.00
per square foot of rentable floor area). Further, in the event Tenant has
validly and timely exercised the Eighth Floor East Expansion Option and Landlord
fails to deliver to Tenant the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space by July 1,
2007, and such failure continues for one hundred five (105) days, then Tenant
shall have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to revoke and rescind
its Eighth Floor East Expansion Option Notice by giving written notice to
Landlord during the first ten (10) business days following the expiration of
such period, provided that such notice shall have no force or effect and the
Eighth Floor East Expansion Option Notice will not be revoked or rescinded if
Landlord delivers the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space within 30 days following
its receipt of such notice. The reimbursement and termination rights
specifically set forth herein shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy in the
event Landlord fails to timely deliver the Eighth Floor East Expansion Space.

2.6     RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER

This Section 2.6 shall apply to those portions of the Building identified as the
"First Offer Space" and the "Special First Offer Space" on Exhibit J
(collectively referred to herein as the "First Offer Space"). Additionally, if
Tenant does not timely and validly exercise the Third Floor East Expansion
Option, First Floor East Expansion Option or Eighth Floor East Expansion Option,
then for each such expansion option not exercised, from and after the date on
which the

                                     - 18 -
<Page>

applicable expansion option expires or is extinguished in accordance with the
terms of the Lease, the space for which the expansion option has expired or been
extinguished shall be included within the definition of "First Offer Space"
hereunder and shall be individually referred to as "Expansion/Offer Space".
Landlord has entered into leases demising a portion of the First Offer Space
("Existing Leases") and is negotiating leases for or marketing the remainder of
such space. Landlord shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion,
to enter into any and all leases or other occupancy arrangements and amendments
thereto (as the same may be amended from time to time, a "New Lease") for those
portions of the First Offer Space not leased under the Existing Leases, and to
enter into amendments to Existing Leases and New Leases, all as it deems
advisable in its sole and absolute discretion, upon such terms as it deems
advisable in its sole and absolute discretion (which terms may include, without
limitation, the grant of any expansion, extension or other options or rights).

For purposes hereof, the "Superior Leases" (each, a "Superior Lease") shall mean
(x) the Existing Leases and (y) for each and every portion of the First Offer
Space not subject to an Existing Lease, the first New Lease Landlord enters into
with a tenant for such space that actually takes possession and commences paying
rent therefor ("First New Lease"), which means that for any Expansion/Offer
Space the "First New Lease" is the first New Lease entered into for such space
after the applicable expansion option has expired or been extinguished for which
the tenant actually takes possession and commences paying rent; provided that if
Landlord leases such space to a tenant for an initial term expiring prior to the
date on which Tenant would have had the right to expand into the space (the
"Delivery Date"), and such tenant validly exercises an extension option under
the lease for an extension term commencing upon or after the Delivery Date, and
remains in possession and continues to pay rent at the commencement of such
extension term, then such lease shall be deemed to be the First New Lease for
such space (it being understood that any such extension option for a term after
the Delivery Date would be conditioned on Tenant not exercising the applicable
expansion option), and (z) any other New Lease of First Offer Space, which is
not a First New Lease with respect to any particular space, entered into by
Landlord after Landlord has first offered such space to Tenant in accordance
with this Section 2.6 ("Subsequent New Leases"). As used in this Lease, the
phrase "tenants under Superior Leases" or "a tenant under a Superior Lease" or
similar such phrases or references shall include the original parties holding
the tenants' interests under the Superior Leases and all such parties'
successors, assigns and sublessees.

Tenant's rights under this Section 2.6 shall be subject to the rights of tenants
under Superior Leases (including without limitation all expansion and extension
options, all rights of first offer and all other options and rights) subject to
the following:

                (a)     if the First New Lease for any First Offer Space
 initially contains an expansion option, such expansion option shall have
 priority over the rights of Tenant hereunder only as long as no other person or
 entity leases the space subject to the expansion option prior to the exercise
 of such expansion option;

                (b)     notwithstanding (a) above, (a) if Landlord enters into a
 lease of space in the Building with Cambridge Energy Research Associates Inc.
 or an affiliate thereof ("CERA") within one (1) year following the date hereof
 for initial premises consisting of all or substantially all of the sixth floor
 (east) of the Building, all or substantially all of the seventh

                                     - 19 -
<Page>

 floor (east) of the Building and approximately 13,222 square feet of the fifth
 floor (east) of the Building, or space which is materially consistent with the
 foregoing, and (b) Landlord grants to CERA in the initial lease with CERA
 expansion and/or first offer rights with respect to the balance of the space on
 the fifth floor east containing approximately 8,167 rentable square feet and/or
 first offer rights with respect to the entirety of the fourth floor east, as
 shown as Special First Offer Space on the Stacking Plan, which rights may be
 effective continuously after the initial lease up of such space, the rights of
 first offer and/or expansion so granted to the tenant under the CERA lease
 shall have priority over the rights of Tenant under this Section 2.6 even if
 another person or entity leases space subject to such rights prior to the
 exercise of such rights;

                (c)     if Landlord offers space to Tenant in accordance with
 the provisions of this Section 2.6 and such offer includes expansion options,
 and Tenant does not accept such offer in accordance with the provisions of this
 Section 2.6, and Landlord thereafter enters into a Superior Lease containing
 any such expansion options, the expansion options under such Superior Lease
 shall take priority over Tenant's rights hereunder; otherwise, any expansion
 options granted in such a Superior Lease not included in the offer to Tenant
 shall be subject to the rights of Tenant under this Section 2.6;

                (d)     the right of first offer granted to a tenant under an
 Existing Lease, which right of first offer is with respect to 5,997 s.f. on
 eighth floor west as shown on the Stacking Plan, and which right of first offer
 is effective continuously after the initial lease up of such space, shall have
 priority over the rights of Tenant under this Section 2.6;

                (e)     except as set forth in (b) and (d) any first offer
 rights granted to tenants in Superior Leases shall be subject to Tenant's
 rights under this Section 2.6; and

                (f)     if Landlord amends a Superior Lease to grant the tenant
 thereunder an option to renew, extend or expand not originally contained in
 such Superior Lease, the exercise of rights by the tenant thereunder will be
 subject to Tenant's rights under this Section 2.6.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord enters into a lease of space which is
not First Offer Space, and in that lease or an amendment thereto grants the
tenant thereunder expansion or first offer rights with respect to First Offer
Space, such rights shall be subject to Tenant's right of first offer in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.6.

Each and every time during the term of this Lease, if Landlord intends to market
for lease to third parties the First Offer Space or any portion thereof upon the
expiration or termination of any Superior Lease applicable thereto (provided
that such marketing may occur prior to such expiration or termination), and if
at such time (i) the Lease is in full force and effect, (ii) Tenant is not in
default, beyond applicable grace and cure periods, in the performance or
observance of any of the terms and provisions of this Lease on the part of the
Tenant to be performed or observed, and (iii) Tenant has neither assigned the
Lease nor sublet twenty-five (25) percent or more of the Premises (other than a
Permitted Transfer and excluding subleases which have expired or terminated as
of the date Tenant exercises its first offer right), then Landlord shall first
offer (in writing) to lease such space to Tenant (the "Offer Notice") on such
terms and conditions as are determined by Landlord in its sole discretion;
provided that the rental rate shall be the "Offer Fair Market Rent" (as
hereinafter defined) as determined by Landlord in its sole

                                     - 20 -
<Page>

discretion (a "First Offer"). The "Offer Fair Market Rent" shall mean one
hundred percent (100%) of the fair market rent for Class A office use of the
subject First Offer Space, free and clear of any lease, as of the commencement
of the term of the First Offer Lease (as defined below) under market conditions
then existing, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice,
taking into account relevant factors and considerations for a market lease
transaction, including the treatment of operating costs and taxes, and the then
current market rental rates for leases of comparable space in comparable
buildings in the East Cambridge/Kendall Square area to new tenants. The
foregoing covenant shall not prohibit Landlord from marketing First Offer Space
at the same time Tenant is considering a First Offer from Landlord, provided
that Landlord shall not enter a lease of space subject to a First Offer until
Tenant rejects or is deemed to have rejected such First Offer. If Tenant has not
accepted such First Offer by written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days
(or if the First Offer is for more than 30,000 rentable square feet, forty-five
(45) days) after the date the Offer Notice is given to Tenant, the First Offer
shall conclusively be deemed to have been rejected by Tenant. Thereafter,
Landlord shall be free to lease the space subject to the Offer Notice to other
parties on such terms and conditions as are determined by Landlord in its sole
discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees not to enter into a
lease of such space if (i) the gross rent under such lease would be less than
ninety-two and one-half percent (92.5%) of the gross rent in Landlord's offer to
Tenant, (ii) the tenant allowance under such lease would be more than one
hundred seven and one-half (107.5%) percent of the tenant allowance offered to
Tenant, or (iii) the term of such lease would be more than twelve (12) months
longer or shorter than the term offered to Tenant, without first again offering
the subject space to Tenant pursuant to the foregoing procedure, except that
Tenant shall be deemed to have conclusively rejected such new First Offer if it
does not accept the same within ten (10) business days of the date of Landlord's
revised Offer Notice. Additionally, if Landlord has not entered into a lease
within one hundred eighty (180) days following the rejection or deemed rejection
by Tenant of Landlord's First Offer for such offered space, then the provisions
of this Section 2.6 shall apply to Landlord and Tenant with respect to such
previously offered and unleased space as if such unleased space had not been
offered to Tenant.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Landlord (i) shall have no
obligation to make any offer to Tenant under this Section 2.6 if at such time as
an offer would otherwise be required to be made hereunder there are three
hundred sixty-four (364) or fewer days remaining in the Term, as the same may
have been extended at such time and (ii) shall be free to offer to lease space
or grant rights to occupy space to others without first making such offer to
Tenant hereunder so long as the right to occupy the subject space commences
after the expiration of the Term hereof, as the same has been extended.

If Tenant timely accepts a First Offer pursuant to the provisions hereof, Tenant
may elect by written notice to Landlord ("Arbitration Notice") given within five
(5) business days following its acceptance of the First Offer to have the Offer
Fair Market Rent determined pursuant to the arbitration procedures set forth in
Section 2.3(d); provided that (i) references in Section 2.3(d) to Tenant's Rent
Notice shall be deemed references to Tenant's Arbitration Notice, (ii) Tenant
shall include with its Arbitration Notice the name of Tenant's Appraiser, and
(iii) references to Fair Market Rent in Section 2.3(d) shall be deemed
references to Offer Fair Market Rent. Without derogating from the foregoing, it
is expressly agreed that Tenant shall have no right to cancel or withdraw its
acceptance of the First Offer, whether in a manner set forth in Section 2.3(c)
with

                                     - 21 -
<Page>

respect to Tenant's Rent Notice or otherwise, any acceptance of a First Offer
being irrevocable except as set forth below.

If Tenant timely accepts a First Offer pursuant to the provisions hereof, Tenant
and Landlord shall execute and deliver to each other within forty (40) days
following Tenant's acceptance of the First Offer (or if Offer Fair Market Rent
is arbitrated pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, within ten (10) days
following the determination of the Offer Fair Market Rent), a lease drafted by
Landlord and commented on by and reasonably acceptable to Tenant, substantially
in the form of this Lease, modified to reflect the terms set out in the Offer
Notice (a "First Offer Lease"), provided that it is agreed that Landlord will
not be obligated to undertake any Landlord's Work or leasehold improvements or
otherwise prepare the subject space for Tenant or provide a tenant allowance
therefore, that there will be no free rental period or other period during which
annual base rent or other sums payable by Tenant are not due, there will be no
extension or expansion rights, and that Tenant shall have no additional first
offer rights, under any such First Offer Lease, all except to the extent set
forth in the Offer Notice.

Landlord's failure to deliver and any delay in delivering any First Offer Space
for any reason beyond Landlord's control (including, without limitation, the
continued occupancy of any such space by a prior occupant thereof or the holding
over of any tenant whose lease has expired or been terminated) shall not give
rise to any liability of Landlord hereunder, and shall not affect the full force
and validity of this Lease. Landlord, in the case of any occupant who holds over
for more than 30 days, agrees to prosecute with due diligence appropriate legal
proceedings for the removal of such occupant and in all other cases agrees to
use reasonable and diligent efforts to make such space available to Tenant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Landlord and Tenant have
entered into a First Offer Lease and Landlord fails to deliver to Tenant the
applicable First Offer Space by the scheduled delivery date therefore, and such
failure continues for one (1) month, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for
Tenant's actual Third Party out-of-pocket architectural and engineering costs
directly caused by Landlord's failure to timely deliver the applicable First
Offer Space, up to a maximum aggregate reimbursement equal to the product of
$1.00 and the number of rentable square feet in the First Offer Space. Further,
in the event that Landlord and Tenant have entered into a First Offer Lease and
Landlord fails to deliver the applicable First Offer Space to Tenant by the
scheduled delivery date therefor, and such failure continues for one hundred
five (105) days, then Tenant shall have the right, exercisable in its sole
discretion, to revoke and rescind its acceptance of the applicable Offer Notice
and to terminate the applicable First Offer Lease by giving notice to Landlord
during the first ten (10) business days immediately following the expiration of
such period, provided that such notice shall be of no force or effect and the
acceptance of the Offer Notice will not be revoked or rescinded and the First
Offer Lease will not be terminated if the applicable space is delivered within
thirty (30) days following the Landlord's receipt of such notice. The
reimbursement and termination rights specifically set forth herein shall be
Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy in the event Landlord fails to timely deliver
the applicable space.

Subject to the foregoing and except as otherwise may be provided in the Offer
Notice, any and all portions of the First Offer Space for which Tenant validly
accepts Landlord's offer and executes a Lease as set forth herein shall be
delivered to Tenant, broom clean, in its then "As Is," "Where Is" condition,
with all faults and without representation, warranty or guaranty of any kind by
Landlord to Tenant. Time is of the essence with respect to the provisions
hereof.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                  CONSTRUCTION

3.1     DELIVERY OF PREMISES.

Tenant acknowledges that Tenant has had an opportunity to inspect the Premises.
Except for Landlord's Common Area Work as expressly set forth hereinafter, the
Premises shall be delivered to Tenant "As Is", "Where Is" with all faults and
without representation, warranty or guaranty of any kind by Landlord to Tenant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the following provisions, Landlord, at
Landlord's sole expense, shall complete the work in the Building as set forth in
Exhibit B hereto ("Landlord's Common Area Work"). Landlord agrees to use
diligent efforts to have Landlord's Common Area Work completed no later than the
time set forth in Exhibit B, subject to delays beyond Landlord's reasonable
control and delays caused by Tenant. Landlord shall in no way be liable to
Tenant or any other party, and Tenant's obligations shall not be reduced
hereunder in the event such construction work is not substantially completed by
the applicable time set forth on Exhibit B. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Landlord represents and warrants that Landlord's Common Area Work shall not be
performed in any manner that would unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use of
or access to the Premises.

Landlord's Common Area Work shall be deemed completed on the date on which the
required Landlord's Common Area Work is substantially completed as certified by
Landlord's architect, with the exception of minor items which would not
interfere with the completion of the Tenant Improvements or Tenant's business
operations (collectively, "Punch List Items"). Landlord agrees to complete all
Punch List Items within sixty (60) days of substantial completion of the
relevant Landlord's Common Area Work.

3.2     PREPARATION OF PREMISES BY TENANT.

Subject to the provisions of this Lease, Tenant shall begin construction on the
initial build out of its Premises promptly following the Tenant Access Date and
shall diligently pursue the same to completion (such initial construction is
referred to as the "Initial Tenant Improvements"). The Initial Tenant
Improvements shall be constructed by Tenant in compliance with the provisions of
the Lease, including without limitation Section 3.5 of the Lease. A preliminary
description of the Initial Tenant Improvements is attached hereto on Exhibit F.
No delay or failure of the Initial Tenant Improvements to be constructed or
completed shall affect the Term Commencement Date or any obligations of Tenant
under this Lease, unless and to the extent such delays are directly caused by
Landlord or its agents, employees or independent contractors and Tenant gives
notice to Landlord within five (5) business days of any alleged delay caused by
Landlord or its agents, employees or independent contractors.

The Initial Tenant Improvements shall be constructed by Tenant at its sole cost
and expense (including without limitation costs for any trash removal services,
utilities, and any costs required to cause the Premises to comply with all laws,
orders and regulations of all governmental authorities and all insurance
requirements); provided that Tenant may be reimbursed out of the Tenant
Improvement Allowance for its actual, third party design,

                                     - 23 -
<Page>

engineering and construction, wiring, cabling, installation of
telecommunications systems and construction management costs (collectively,
"Costs") for the Initial Tenant Improvements pursuant to the provisions of this
paragraph. Prior to commencing Initial Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall deliver
to Landlord a certificate executed by Tenant's construction manager setting
forth a good faith estimate of the total Costs for all of the Initial Tenant
Improvements.

The Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be disbursed as follows. Tenant shall
submit to Landlord from time to time, and not more frequently than once a month,
a requisition for reimbursement setting forth the actual, third party Costs of
the applicable Initial Tenant Improvements for which reimbursement is sought (a
"Requisition"). Such Requisition for payment shall contain such invoices or
other evidence of the Costs incurred as Landlord may reasonably request,
together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that the same have
been paid or are due and payable by Tenant and a certificate by the architect
that the work covered by the application has been completed in compliance with
the plans and specifications approved by Landlord pursuant to Section 3.5.
Provided such information is provided by the third to last business day in a
month, by the thirtieth (30th) calendar day of the next month, Landlord shall
reimburse Tenant (or in the case of Costs which are payable, at its election pay
directly to the vendor), from the applicable Tenant Improvement Allowance in an
amount equal to any actual, third party Costs paid by Tenant for the Initial
Tenant Improvements properly set forth in the Requisition, or if such amount
remains due and payable by Tenant, Landlord shall pay such amount to the party
to which it is owed as indicated on the applicable invoices. In the event the
overall Costs of the Initial Tenant Improvements for the Premises exceed the
Tenant Improvement Allowance, then Tenant shall be solely responsible for any
such Costs in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance.

The Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be used for Initial Tenant Improvements.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, following completion of the Initial Tenant
Improvements, as certified to Landlord by Tenant's architect, the full amount of
the applicable Tenant Improvement Allowance has not been properly requisitioned
for the Initial Tenant Improvements, Tenant may requisition the same in
accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.2 for any Initial
Tenant Improvements to the other portions of the Premises or any non-cosmetic
alterations or additions to the other portions of the Premises approved by
Landlord pursuant to Section 3.3 below, provided any such alteration or addition
to the other portions of the Premises are completed within one (1) year of the
Term Commencement Date therefor and any requisition therefor is submitted to
Landlord by such date. Otherwise, any Tenant Improvement Allowance not properly
requisitioned by Tenant shall not be available to Tenant. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall have no obligation to
disburse any Tenant Improvement Allowance at any time that Tenant is in default
of any of its obligations under this Lease beyond any applicable grace or cure
period. Landlord shall not be entitled to charge any inspection or supervision
or similar cost or fee in connection with Initial Tenant Improvements or any
initial tenant improvements constructed in connection with Tenant's expansion
rights, extension rights or rights of first offer.

3.3     GENERAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO CONSTRUCTION.

All construction work required or permitted by this Lease, whether by Landlord
or by Tenant, shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance
with all applicable laws and

                                     - 24 -
<Page>

all lawful ordinances, regulations and orders of governmental authority and
insurers of the Building and the Lot. Either party may inspect the work of the
other at reasonable times and promptly shall give notice of observed defects.
Landlord shall provide Tenant reasonable prior notice before inspecting the work
on the Premises (except in case of emergency when no prior notice is required)
and Landlord will allow Tenant to have an agent of Tenant or Tenant's
Construction Representative accompany Landlord in such inspection. Tenant shall
comply at all times with the construction rules and regulations attached hereto
as Exhibit G.

3.4     CONSTRUCTION REPRESENTATIVES.

In connection with the parties' respective rights and obligations under this
Article III, each party authorizes the other to rely upon approvals and other
actions given or made on such party's behalf by any person designated as its
Construction Representative in Section 1.1 hereof. Each party may change its
Construction Representative by notice to the other.

3.5     ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS.

This Section 3.5 shall apply before and during the Term. Tenant may make
interior alterations and additions of a decorative or cosmetic nature (as
defined below), the cost of which does not exceed $75,000 in the aggregate in
any twelve (12) month period, without the need of any approval from Landlord,
provided (i) any alteration or addition affecting the Building structure
(including alterations affecting the roof, the structural weight-bearing walls
or columns or any weight-bearing floor slab of the Building), (ii) any
alteration or addition affecting the Building systems (including plumbing,
electrical, mechanical or HVAC systems), (iii) any interior alteration or
addition of a decorative or cosmetic nature, the cost of which is equal to or
exceeds $75,000 in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period, and (iv) any
other alteration or addition not otherwise described in this paragraph costing
more than $25,000 (in 2002 dollars) in any one instance or in the aggregate in
any twelve (12) month period, (x) shall not be performed without Tenant first
having received Landlord's written consent thereto, (y) shall be conducted under
the supervision of a licensed architect or licensed professional engineer
approved by Landlord and (z) shall be conducted with plans and specifications
submitted to and approved by Landlord, subject in all events to the "Review
Conditions" (described below). Without limiting the foregoing, all plans and
specifications and all alterations and additions (including without limitation
the Initial Tenant Improvements) shall comply with the Minimum Tenant
Improvement Standards attached hereto as Exhibit H (the "Minimum Standards").
Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any alterations or
additions proposed by Tenant or to any plans and specifications submitted to
Landlord in connection therewith. Landlord's failure to respond to Tenant's
request for consent to alterations or additions or for approval of plans and
specifications for any alterations or additions consented to by Landlord, or as
to which Landlord's consent is simultaneously being requested, within thirty
(30) days of Landlord's receipt of such request(s) shall constitute Landlord's
disapproval of same. Landlord hereby approves Tenant's construction of a high
density file room on the third floor of the Building in accordance with the
plans to be submitted by Tenant to Landlord prior to August 15, 2002 for
Landlord's approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed so
long as the work shown thereon can reasonably be completed by September 30,
2002); provided that all work in connection therewith that requires access to or
interferes with the use and occupancy of the second floor (west) of the Building
shall be undertaken by Landlord's contractor at Tenant's

                                     - 25 -
<Page>

sole cost and expense (Landlord hereby agreeing to cause its contractor to
cooperate with Tenant in connection therewith) and shall be completed by
September 30, 2002. Tenant shall have no access to the second floor (west) after
such date, and any access to the second floor (west) prior to such date shall be
exclusively through Landlord's contractor as aforesaid. Landlord also hereby
approves Tenant's installation of a two stage pre-action sprinkler system,
subject to Landlord's review and approval of plans and specifications therefor,
such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Landlord's approval of any plans or specifications shall not be deemed its
opinion that the plans and specifications or the work depicted thereon comply
with any or all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations or orders of
governmental authorities or requirements of insurers of the Building and the
Lot, or with the Minimum Standards, and no waiver from the requirement of the
Minimum Standards shall be deemed to have been granted by such approval unless
such waiver is expressly stated in writing. At Landlord's request, Tenant will
cause its architect to certify that its plans and specifications and the work
depicted thereon comply with such laws, ordinances, regulations and orders of
governmental authorities and with the Minimum Standards. Except in connection
with the Initial Tenant Improvements (including any Initial Tenant Improvement
for the Third Floor East Expansion Space), and except for any alteration or
addition for which Landlord's consent is not required under this Lease, Tenant
shall pay Landlord's actual, reasonable, third-party out of pocket costs of
reviewing or inspecting any proposed non-decorative or non-cosmetic alterations
and/or additions and the plans therefore, such as costs and fees of third party
consultants hired by Landlord. In no event shall any non-decorative or
non-cosmetic alterations and/or additions be considered or approved by Landlord
except in Landlord's sole discretion which (a) involve or might affect any
structural or exterior element of the Building, Building systems, including
mechanical, fire protection or life safety systems, or the common facilities of
the Building, or (b) will require unusual expense to readapt the Premises to
normal office use on Lease termination or increase the cost of construction or
of insurance or taxes on the Building or the Lot (collectively, the "Review
Conditions"). All non-decorative and/or non-cosmetic alterations and additions
shall become a part of the Premises except that at the time Landlord approves
any alterations or additions, Landlord may require that upon yielding up of the
Premises pursuant to Section 6.1.2, Tenant shall remove any items which are not
typical and customary for the Permitted Use hereunder ("Specialty Items"); in
the event Landlord does not affirmatively require Tenant to remove Specialty
Items at the time Landlord approves the same, which it may do in its sole
discretion, Landlord will be deemed to have waived such requirements. Tenant
shall provide Landlord with written notice specifying in reasonable detail any
alterations or additions which Tenant intends to make for which Landlord's
consent is not required prior to commencing the same.

All of Tenant's alterations and additions and installation and delivery of
telephone systems, furnishings, and equipment shall be coordinated in a
reasonable manner with any work being performed by Landlord and other tenants in
the Building (and Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to facilitate such
coordination with other tenants in the Building), and shall be performed in such
manner, and by such persons as shall maintain harmonious labor relations (Tenant
acknowledging that it has been advised that Landlord's contractor and
contractors for other tenants in the Building employ exclusively union labor)
and not cause any damage to the Building or interference with Building
construction or operation, or with other tenants in the Building, and, except
for installation of furnishings, equipment and telephone systems, shall be

                                     - 26 -
<Page>

performed by contractors approved in writing by Landlord (an "Approved
Contractor"), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. For
purposes of this Lease, an "Approved Contractor" shall mean a contractor or
mechanic identified by Tenant in writing, who has been approved by Landlord
(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Contractors may be
approved in one of two ways. First, Tenant may submit to Landlord in writing
from time to time a list (or revised list) of contractors that Tenant
anticipates using from time to time to make alterations, repairs and
improvements to the Premises. Each of the contractors identified on such list
and approved in writing by Landlord shall be deemed "Approved Contractors".
Second, Tenant may submit to Landlord from time to time requests for Landlord to
approve specific contractors (not already on the list of Approved Contractors)
for work in the Premises. If Landlord approves such contractor in writing, such
contractor shall be an Approved Contractor for the project in question. Landlord
hereby approves the list of contractors attached hereto as Exhibit M as
"Approved Contractors". Landlord shall have the right, upon written notice to
Tenant to withdraw its approval of previously approved contractors at any time
for any cause as determined in Landlord's reasonable judgment. A contractor's
failure to provide or maintain adequate insurance levels shall be a reasonable
basis for Landlord to withhold or withdraw approval unless Tenant notifies
Landlord in writing that such contractor shall be covered by insurance then
being maintained by Tenant and if Tenant provides documentary evidence that said
Contractor is covered and of the amount of coverage.

Landlord may post any notices it considers necessary to protect it from
responsibility or liability for any alteration, addition or other work by
Tenant, its agents, employees, or independent contractors, and Tenant shall give
sufficient notice to Landlord to permit such posting. In the event Tenant sends
its non-decorative and/or non-cosmetic work out for bid, before doing so Tenant
shall provide Landlord with a list of proposed bidders for Landlord's review;
Landlord shall have seven (7) business days to reasonably object to such
bidders; if Landlord does not so object, such bidders shall be presumptively
approved by Landlord. Before commencing any work Tenant shall: secure all
licenses and permits necessary therefor; deliver to Landlord a statement of the
names of all its contractors and major subcontractors (the identity of which
must have been previously approved by Landlord as hereinabove contemplated) and
the estimated cost of all labor and material to be furnished by them (a major
subcontractor being a subcontractor performing work which costs more than
$10,000 in the aggregate); and cause each contractor and subcontractor to carry
(i) workers' compensation insurance in statutory amounts covering all the
contractor's and subcontractor's employees, (ii) commercial general liability
insurance with such limits as Landlord may reasonably require, but in no event
less than a combined single limit of $3,000,000 per occurrence and (iii) other
insurance specified in the Construction Rules and Regulations attached hereto as
EXHIBIT G, (all such insurance to be maintained with a responsible insurance
company, qualified to do business and in good standing in Massachusetts with a
Best's insurance rating of not less than A:X, and insuring Landlord, Manager and
Tenant as well as the contractors), and to deliver to Landlord, certificates of
all such insurance naming Landlord, Manager and Tenant as additional insureds as
their interests may appear with respect to commercial general liability
coverage. Tenant agrees to pay promptly when due, and to defend and indemnify
Landlord from and against, any cost, claim or liability arising from any work
done on the Premises by Tenant, its agents, employees or independent
contractors, except to the extent any cost, claim or liability is due to the
negligent, acts or omissions of Landlord, and not to cause or permit any liens
for labor or materials performed or furnished in connection therewith to attach
to the Building or the Lot and immediately to discharge or bond over any

                                     - 27 -
<Page>

such liens which may so attach. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the
effect of any alterations, additions or other work on the Building's structure
and systems, whether or not Landlord has consented thereto. Upon completion of
the Tenant Improvements and any other non-cosmetic or non-decorative alteration
or addition, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a complete set of "as built"
plans therefor, which may consist of a mark-up of any plans previously prepared
for such work showing actual construction. Alterations and/or additions shall be
considered "cosmetic" and/or "decorative" if they involve painting, carpeting
and the like, and provided they do not involve and will not or could not affect
any structural or exterior element of the Building, Building systems, including
mechanical, fire protection or life safety systems, or the common facilities of
the Building.

Tenant shall have the right to install in locations on the roof of the Building
designated by Landlord (such area or areas, the "Roof Area"), up to two five-ton
Liebert units (the "Roof Equipment"). Tenant shall have the ancillary right to
connect the Premises to the Roof Area through a reasonably sized conduit or
conduits, installed at Tenant's sole cost and expense, such conduit or conduits
to be in a location designated by Landlord in its reasonable discretion. The
term "Roof Equipment" shall be deemed to include such conduit and any wiring or
other materials contained therein. Roof Equipment shall be installed and
maintained so as (a) not to cause any adverse impact on the structural integrity
of the Building or the roof of the Building and (b) not to void or jeopardize
any roof membrane warranty or other roof warranty, provided a copy of which is
supplied to Tenant. Prior to the installation of any Roof Equipment, Tenant
shall obtain and submit to Landlord, for its approval in its reasonable
discretion, plans and specifications for the proposed Roof Equipment (including
its size, location, height, weight and function), along with copies of all
required permits and licenses required from all applicable governmental
authorities.

Without derogating from the other provisions of the Lease (including those
governing alterations and additions), all of which shall apply to the Roof
Equipment, Tenant specifically agrees to abide by the following terms and
conditions:

                (a)     No Roof Equipment shall be installed except in
 compliance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord as set forth
 above, such work to be performed by contractors reasonably approved by Landlord
 and at Tenant's sole cost and expense, provided that any roof penetration shall
 be by Shea Roofing or such other contractor designated by Landlord in its sole
 discretion. As soon as practicable during the installation or removal of any
 Roof Equipment, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, will have any roof
 penetrations occurring or remaining by reason of the installation or removal
 process sealed by Shea Roofing or another roofing contractor selected by
 Landlord.

                (b)     Tenant shall at all times during the installation or
 removal process and during any use, maintenance or repair of any Roof
 Equipment, comply with all roof membrane warranties and other roof warranties
 which are supplied to Tenant, building, safety, fire, plumbing, electrical and
 other codes and regulations, and insurance requirements set forth in the Lease.

                (c)     Prior to the commencement of any work related to the
 Roof Equipment, Tenant will coordinate with the building engineer, roof
 material manufacturers and Landlord's

                                     - 28 -
<Page>

 roofing contractors regarding the scope and schedule of such work. The Building
 engineer, roof material manufacturers and Landlord's roofing contractors will
 have the opportunity to be present during construction to ensure that all work
 is completed in a good and workmanlike manner and is performed in accordance
 with the terms of the Lease.

                (d)     Tenant shall keep the Roof Equipment, and every part
 thereof, in good condition and repair at all times during the Term at Tenant's
 sole cost and expense.

                (e)     Tenant shall yield up the Roof Area and any other areas
 containing the Roof Equipment in the same manner and condition as set forth
 herein for the yield up of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by
 notice given at the time Landlord approves the plans and specifications for the
 Roof Equipment, Landlord may require Tenant to remove the Roof Equipment upon
 Tenant's yielding up the Premises and to repair any damage caused thereby in
 compliance with any roof membrane warranty and other roof warranties and
 paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                      RENT

4.1     RENT.

Tenant agrees to make rental payments to Landlord, without any offset or
reduction whatsoever, except as expressly set forth in Section 5.2 (but taking
into account the "Reduced Rent Period" following the Term Commencement Date for

the Annual Base Rent as set forth in Section 1.1, in advance on the first day of
each calendar month included in the Term after the Term Commencement Date;

to Landlord's usual accounting practices, which shall be in accordance with
generally accepted accounting practices, showing for the preceding calendar year
or fraction thereof, as the case may be, "Landlord's Operating Costs" together
with Real Estate Taxes (as defined in Section 4.2.2 hereof).

the date of this Lease, or for the purposes of reducing Operating Expenses, or
for the purposes of complying with the terms of this Lease, the cost thereof as
reasonably amortized by Landlord, with interest at the rate of interest charged
to Landlord for borrowing funds to finance such item (or the rate that Landlord
reasonably determines would have been charged if Landlord does not finance such
item), on the unamortized amount, shall be included in Landlord's Operating
Costs. In any calendar year in which the average annual occupancy of the
Building is less than 100%, Landlord's Operating Costs as defined herein shall
also include such additional costs as would reasonably have been incurred by
Landlord with respect to the operation, administration, management, cleaning,
maintenance and repair of the Property with 100% average annual occupancy.
Payments for any services may be to Landlord or affiliates thereof provided the
same are at reasonable rates consistent with the type of occupancy.

        4.2.2   REAL ESTATE TAXES. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional
rent, Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Real Estate Taxes (as set forth in Section

shall mean all taxes, impositions and charges of every kind and nature assessed
by any governmental authority on the Lot, Building and improvements, and the
reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any proceedings for
abatement of taxes and assessments with respect to any calendar year or fraction
of a calendar year; together with the Building's allocable share of such taxes,
impositions and charges with respect to other parcels on which any common
facilities serving the Building are located, which Landlord shall become
obligated to pay because of or in connection with the ownership, leasing and
operation of the Lot, Building and improvements, subject to the following: There
shall be excluded from Real Estate Taxes all income taxes, excise taxes,
franchise taxes, and estate, succession, inheritance and transfer taxes,
provided, however, that if at any time during the Term the present system of ad
valorem taxation of real property shall be changed so that in lieu of the whole
or any part of the ad valorem tax on real property, there shall be assessed on
Landlord a capital levy or other tax on the gross rents received with respect to
the Lot, Building and improvements, or both, or a federal, state, county,
municipal, or other local income, franchise, excise or similar tax, assessment,
levy or charge (distinct from any now in effect) measured by or based, in whole
or in part, upon any such gross rents, then any and all of such taxes,
assessments, levies or charges, to the extent so measured or based, shall be
deemed to be included within the term "Real Estate Taxes." If the amount of Real
Estate Taxes for the base year referred to in Section 1.1 hereof shall be
calculated to reflect a fully leased and assessed building.

                                     - 31 -
<Page>

        4.2.3   TENANT'S PRO RATA SHARE OF OPERATING COSTS AND REAL ESTATE
TAXES. If with respect to any calendar year falling within the Term or for any
fraction of any calendar year falling at the beginning or end of the Term,
Landlord's Operating Costs for a full calendar year exceed the Operating Cost
Base or for any such fraction of a calendar year, exceed the corresponding
fraction of the Operating Cost Base, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as
additional rent, an amount (such amount being referred to as "Tenant's Pro Rata
Share of Operating Costs") equal to the product of (i) the amount of such excess
multiplied by (ii) Tenant's Pro Rata Share (which represents a fraction, the
numerator of which is the Rentable Floor Area of the Premises and the
denominator of which is the Total Rentable Floor Area of the Building and which
fraction as of the date hereof is set forth in Section 1.1 hereof).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Operating Costs are incurred for a service
which is not provided to one or more tenants who are not obligated to pay for a
proportionate share of the cost of such service, then Tenant's Pro Rata Share
thereof shall be based upon a fraction, the numerator of which is the Rentable
Floor Area of the Premises and the denominator of which is the Total Rentable
Floor Area of the Building less the rentable floor area of the premises of the
tenant or tenants not receiving and not paying for such service. In addition, if
with respect to any calendar year falling within the Term or for any fraction of
any calendar year falling at the beginning or end of the Term, Real Estate Taxes
for a full calendar year exceed the Real Estate Tax Base, or for any fraction of
a calendar year exceed the corresponding fraction of the Real Estate Tax Base,
then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, an amount (such amount
being referred to as "Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Real Estate Taxes") equal to
the product of (x) the amount of such excess multiplied by (y) Tenant's Pro Rata
Share. (The sum of Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Operating Costs and Tenant's Pro
Rata Share of Real Estate Taxes is referred to herein as "Tenant's Pro Rata
Share of Expenses").

        4.2.4   LANDLORD'S ESTIMATES AT END OF TERM. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section 4.2, if the Term expires or is terminated as of a date
other than the last day of a calendar year, then for such fraction of a calendar
year at the end of the Term, Tenant's last payment to Landlord under this
Section 4.2 shall be made on the basis of Landlord's best estimate of the items
otherwise includable in Landlord's Statement and shall be made on or before the
later of (a) thirty (30) days after Landlord delivers such estimate to Tenant or
(b) the last day of the Term, with an appropriate payment or refund to be made
upon submission of Landlord's Statement.

        4.2.5   TENANT'S AUDIT RIGHTS. Landlord agrees to make its books and
records relating to Landlord's Operating Expenses available for examination
during normal business hours at Landlord's principal office or its Manager's
office upon reasonable notice by Tenant and its representatives; provided that
any such examination or audit shall be by an employee of Tenant or an accounting
firm or property management firm, the fees of which are not determined on a
contingent basis, shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and may be
conducted only if a notice is sent by Tenant requesting the same not later than
ninety (90) days following delivery of Landlord's Statement. If Tenant's audit
discloses a discrepancy which the parties agree (or a court of competent
jurisdiction determines in a final non-appealable order) involves an overcharge
of Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Expenses for the period covered by such Landlord's
Statement, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit against the next
installment(s) of Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Expenses in the amount of the
overpayment by Tenant. If such discrepancy as so agreed upon or determined
involves an overcharge to Tenant of more than 5% in the

                                     - 32 -
<Page>

aggregate for such year, Landlord shall be responsible for the reasonable hourly
fees of the accounting firm or auditing firm conducting the audit.

4.3     ESTIMATED PREMISES EXPENSE PAYMENTS.

If, with respect to any calendar year or fraction thereof during the Term,
Landlord estimates that Tenant will be obligated to pay Tenant's Pro Rata share
of Expenses, then Tenant shall pay, as additional rent, on the first day of each
month of such calendar year and each ensuing calendar year thereafter, estimated
monthly payments of Tenant's Pro Rata share of Expenses (hereinafter "Estimated
Monthly Expense Payments") equal to 1/12th of Landlord's estimate of Tenant's
Pro Rata Share of Expenses for the respective calendar year, with an appropriate
additional payment (or credit by Landlord against Tenant's future payments of
Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Expenses) to be made within thirty (30) days after
Landlord's Statement is delivered to Tenant. Landlord agrees it shall base the
amount of Estimated Monthly Expense Payments on the preceding year's actual
Expenses adjusted to reflect Landlord's good faith estimates of increases.
Landlord may adjust such Estimated Monthly Expense Payments from time to time,
but not more than once during each calendar year in general plus one time during
each calendar year for each time during such calendar year space is added to the
Premises, and Tenant shall pay, as additional rent, on the first day of each
month following receipt of Landlord's notice thereof, the adjusted Estimated
Monthly Expense Payment.

4.4     ELECTRICITY.

Electricity to the Premises shall be submetered or check metered to the
Premises. Tenant shall pay for all charges for electric consumption in the
Premises as reasonably determined by Landlord based on readings of such
submeters or check meters, but without mark-up above actual cost, within ten
(10) business days of Landlord's invoice therefor, from time to time, but not
more often than monthly; provided that upon written notice from Landlord, Tenant
shall pay an estimate of such charges, as reasonably determined by Landlord from
time to time, monthly at the same time and in the same manner as payments of
Annual Base Rent, with appropriate payment (or credit against future electric
charges) to be made annually based upon Landlord's revised estimates for the
prior year. If at any time electric charges for the Premises are payable to the
utility therefor, because of the installation of submeters or check meters or
otherwise, Tenant shall pay such charges as they become due, in lieu of such
payments to Landlord as described above. Landlord shall install check meters to
the Premises at Landlord's cost and expense. Landlord shall have the exclusive
right to designate the electric service provider and primary telecommunications
provider to serve the Building. Tenant shall make arrangements for its own
telecommunications service, using the existing cabling to the Building. Subject
to reasonable coordination with Building management, Tenant shall have access to
the basement demarcation point for the telecommunications provider in order to
provide such telecommunication services to the Premises and to maintain such
services.

Tenant covenants and agrees that its use of electric current (exclusive of HVAC)
shall not exceed 8.0 watts per square foot of rentable floor area and that its
total connected lighting load will not exceed the maximum load from time to time
permitted by applicable governmental regulations. In the event Tenant introduces
into the Premises personnel or equipment which overloads the capacity of the
Building system or in any other way interferes with the system's ability to

                                     - 33 -
<Page>

perform adequately its proper functions, supplementary systems including check
meters may, if and as needed, in Landlord's discretion and at Landlord's option,
be provided by Landlord, at Tenant's expense. Landlord shall not in any way be
liable or responsible to Tenant for any loss or damage or expense which Tenant
may sustain or incur if, during the Term of this Lease, either the quantity or
character of electric current is changed or electric current is no longer
available or suitable for Tenant's requirements due to a factor or cause beyond
Landlord's reasonable control.

4.5     CHANGE OF FISCAL YEAR.

Landlord shall have the right from time to time, but not more frequently than
once every three years, to change the periods of accounting under Section 4.2 to
any annual period other than a calendar year, and upon any such change all items
referred to in this Section 4.5 shall be appropriately apportioned, provided
that any such changes in fiscal year shall not result in any inequitable
shifting of or increase for amounts payable to Landlord by Tenant. In all
Landlord's Statements rendered under this Section 4.5, amounts for periods
partially within and partially without the accounting periods shall be
appropriately apportioned, and any items which are not determinable at the time
of a Landlord's Statement shall be included therein on the basis of Landlord's
estimate, and with respect thereto Landlord shall render promptly after
determination a supplemental Landlord's Statement, and appropriate adjustment
shall be made according thereto. All Landlord's Statements shall be prepared on
a cash basis of accounting.

4.6     PAYMENTS.

All payments, fees, charges or other monetary obligations due from Tenant to
Landlord under this Lease (other than Annual Base Rent) shall constitute
additional rent. All payments of Annual Base Rent and additional rent shall be
made to Manager, or to such other person as Landlord may from time to time
designate in writing. If any installment of Annual Base Rent or additional rent
is not paid on the due date and such failure continues for ten (10) days, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, a late fee equal to four percent (4%)
of the past due amount. Additionally, if any installment of Annual Base Rent or
additional rent is paid more than ten (10) business days after the due date
thereof, at Landlord's election, it shall bear interest at a rate equal to the
prime rate of lending announced by the Wall Street Journal or another financial
newspaper selected by Landlord, plus four percent (4%), or if less, the maximum
amount permitted by law (the "Default Interest Rate") from such due date, which
interest shall be immediately due and payable as further additional rent.

the expansion or contraction of the base Building, including damage to the
connections between the windowsills and exterior panels within the Premises) as
may be necessary to keep them in good working order and repair, reasonable wear
and tear excepted, and to keep the Building common areas in compliance with law,
except that Landlord shall not be in default of this provision unless such
noncompliance interferes with Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises

<Page>

        So long as Tenant and its Affiliates (as defined in Section 6.1.6
hereof) are occupying at least 75% in the aggregate of the Premises (excluding
any additional space leased by Tenant under its expansion rights, right of first
offer or otherwise), Tenant, at its expense, may, on a non-exclusive basis,
install a sign appropriate for a first class office building on the exterior of
the Building near the main Building entrance provided that prior to any such
installation (i) Tenant has received Landlord's approval of the design, size
(which in no event shall exceed 33% of the total area of all signage permitted
on the Building by applicable laws, codes, ordinances and regulations),
materials, lettering and location of such sign, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) Tenant has obtained and

applicable laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations. Tenant shall removal any

and upon such removal Tenant shall restore any portion of the Building damaged
by such removal to good order, repair and condition.

        5.1.5   QUIET ENJOYMENT. That Landlord has the right to make this Lease
and that Tenant on timely paying the rent and performing its obligations
hereunder shall peacefully and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises
throughout the Term without any manner of hindrance or molestation from Landlord
or anyone claiming under Landlord, subject however to all the terms and
provisions hereof.

        5.1.6   LANDLORD'S INSURANCE. Landlord shall take out and maintain
throughout the Term of this Lease the following insurance:

                        (i)     Commercial General Liability insurance for the
Building and the common areas, consistent with that being maintained from time
to time by reasonably prudent owners of Class A office buildings in the East
Cambridge/Kendall Square Massachusetts area which are of like kind and quality

higher policy limits as Landlord may reasonably determine; and

                        (ii)    "All Risk," property insurance on a one hundred
percent (100%) replacement cost basis, together with rental loss coverage and,
if the Building is located in a flood zone, flood coverage to the extent the
same is available, insuring the Building and its rental value and the Lot and
the common areas; and

                        (iii)   Insurance against loss or damage from sprinklers
and from leakage or explosions or cracking of boilers, pipes carrying steam or
water, or both, pressure vessels or similar apparatus, in the so-called "broad
form", in such amounts as are customary and commercially reasonable for
buildings in East Cambridge/Kendall Square Massachusetts area which are of like
kind and quality to the Building and have office uses, and insurance against
such other hazards and in such amounts as may from time to time be required by
any bank, insurance company or other lending institution holding a first

Best's insurance rating of not less than A:X, and (ii) contain a waiver of
subrogation rights against Tenant, its agents, employees and representatives
which might arise for any reason with respect to the All Risk

                                     - 36 -
<Page>

property insurance set forth in subsections (ii) and (iii) above. Landlord shall
provide certificates of the insurance described in this Section 5.1.6 before the
Commencement Date, and shall provide certificates evidencing renewal at least
ten (10) days before the expiration of such policy.

5.2     INTERRUPTIONS.

Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any compensation or reduction of rent
by reason of inconvenience or annoyance or for loss of business arising from
power losses or shortages or from the necessity of Landlord's entering the
Premises for any of the purposes in this Lease authorized, or for repairing the
Premises or any portion of the Building, the Lot, or any common facilities
appurtenant thereto. In case Landlord is prevented or delayed from making any
repairs, alterations or improvements, or furnishing any service or performing
any other covenant or duty to be performed on Landlord's part, by reason of any
cause beyond Landlord's reasonable control, Landlord shall not be liable to
Tenant therefor, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any abatement or reduction of
rent by reason thereof, nor shall the same give rise to a claim in Tenant's
favor that such failure constitutes actual or constructive total or partial,
eviction from the Premises.

Landlord reserves the right to stop any service or utility system when Landlord
reasonably deems necessary by reason of accident or emergency or until routine
or other maintenance or repairs have been completed. Except in case of emergency
repairs, Landlord will give Tenant reasonable advance written notice of any
contemplated stoppage and will use reasonable efforts to avoid unnecessary
inconvenience to Tenant by reason thereof.

Landlord also reserves the right to institute such policies, programs and
measures as may be necessary, required or expedient for the conservation or
preservation of energy or energy services or as may be necessary or required to
comply with applicable laws, codes, rules, regulations or standards.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.2, if the
Premises are not suitable for Tenant's business operations by reason of any
interruption in services required to be provided by Landlord and (a) such
interruption arises in whole or in substantial part from the negligent acts or
omissions of Landlord, its employees, contractors, agents, or representatives
and continues for thirty (30) consecutive days (provided Tenant has given
Landlord notice specifying such interruption within five (5) business days
following the commencement thereof), or (b) such interruption occurs for any
other reason, including for reasons beyond Landlord's reasonable control, and
continues for forty-five (45) consecutive days (provided Tenant has given
Landlord notice specifying such interruption within five (5) business days
following the commencement thereof), then Tenant's rent shall be equitably
abated beginning on the thirty-first (31st) day or forty-sixth (46th) day
following the commencement of such interruption, as applicable, to the extent of
interference with Tenant's use of the Premises, until the service is restored;
provided, however, Tenant shall not be entitled to the aforesaid rent abatement
if the interruption arises in whole or in substantial part from the acts or
omissions of Tenant or Tenant's employees, contractors, agents, representatives,
invitees or guests. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to
occurrences governed by Article VII.

        6.1.1   TENANT'S PAYMENTS. To pay when due (a) all Annual Base Rent and

for electricity, telephone (including service inspections therefor) and other
services rendered to the Premises not otherwise required hereunder to be
furnished by Landlord without charge, and (d) all charges to Landlord for
services rendered pursuant to Section 5.1.2 hereof. All charges, fees, monetary
obligations and other amounts payable by Tenant under this Lease other than
Annual Base Rent shall constitute "additional rent" hereunder.

        6.1.2   REPAIRS AND YIELDING UP. Except as otherwise provided in Article
VII and Section 5.1.3, to keep the Premises in good order, repair and condition,
reasonable wear and tear, damage by fire or other casualty or taking and damage

Permitted Use; not to injure or deface the Building, the Lot or any common
facilities appurtenant thereto; to keep the Premises clean and in a neat and
orderly condition; and not to permit in the Building any use thereof which is

appurtenant thereto; and to comply with all laws, regulations and orders of
governmental authorities, including without limitation those relating to zoning,
building, fire, health and safety, applicable to the Premises, the Lot or any
common facilities appurtenant thereto. As used herein, "Hazardous Materials"
shall mean and include, but shall not be limited to, any petroleum product and
all hazardous or toxic wastes or substances, any substances which because of
their quantitative concentration, chemical, radioactive, flammable, explosive,
infectious or other characteristics, constitute or may reasonably be expected to
constitute or

                                     - 38 -

regulated by any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation (whether now
existing or hereafter enacted or promulgated, as they may be amended from time
to time) pertaining to environmental regulations, contamination, clean-up or
disclosures, and any judicial or administrative interpretation thereof,
including any judicial or administrative orders or judgments including, without
limitation, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability
Act of 1980, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq. ("CERCLA"); the Federal Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 6901 et seq. ("RCRA");
Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, Public Law No. 99-499
(signed into law October 17, 1986) ("SARA"); Toxic Substances Control Act, 15
U.S.C. Section 2601 et seq. ("TSCA"); Massachusetts Oil and Hazardous Material
Release Prevention and Response Act, M.G.L. c. 21E; Massachusetts Hazardous
Waste Management Act, M.G.L. c. 21C; the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act,
49 U.S.C. Section 1801 et seq.; or any other state superlien or environmental
clean-up or disclosure statutes (all such laws, rules and regulations being
referred to collectively as the "Environmental Laws"). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant may store and use, in compliance with all applicable legal
requirements, reasonable quantities of materials used in the ordinary course of
general office use such as cleaning detergents and copier supplies.

        6.1.4   RULES AND REGULATIONS. To comply with the Rules and Regulations
set forth in Exhibit C and all other reasonable Rules and Regulations hereafter
made by Landlord, of which Tenant has been given notice, for the care and use of
the Building and the Lot and their facilities and approaches, it being
understood that Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for the failure of other
tenants of the Building to conform to such Rules and Regulations. All such Rules
and Regulations shall be nondiscriminatory in enforcement. 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 in such circumstances
as shall not be arbitrary or which would result in unfair applications of the
rules and regulations to other tenants of the Building, and under such

appliances required by law or ordinance or any other regulation of any public
authority and to procure all licenses and permits required because of Tenant's

regulations of all governmental authorities, Federal, State or Municipal, having
jurisdiction over the Premises or Building or the operation of Tenant's
business, and Tenant shall comply with any order or request of said authorities
respecting the operation of the Tenant's business or any condition caused
thereby.

        6.1.6   ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

                (a)     Tenant shall not assign, mortgage, pledge or otherwise
 transfer this Lease or make any sublease of the Premises, or permit occupancy
 of any part thereof by anyone other than Tenant (any such act being referred to
 herein as a "Transfer" and the other party with whom Tenant undertakes such act
 being referred to herein as a "Transferee") without the prior written consent
 of Landlord which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may refuse consent in its sole
 discretion (a) to any Transfer to any governmental or quasi-governmental
 authority or agency, to a personnel or employment agency, to any entity in
 connection with use by or affiliation with a foreign government, to an entity
 that would use the Premises for the provision of social or clinical services,
 and to any existing tenant in the Building who has been in active negotiations
 with Landlord within the last ninety (90) days, (b) to any Transfer which would
 in Landlord's good faith opinion impair or harm the reputation or value of the
 Building, change the character of the Building or interfere or be inconsistent
 with the use and enjoyment of the Building by other tenants or prospective
 tenants, or (c) to any Transfer in connection with a proposed use other than
 the Permitted Use. In all other cases, Landlord agrees that it shall not
 unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Premises by
 Tenant, pending Landlord's satisfactory review of the information to be
 supplied by Tenant regarding, among other matters, all material terms of the
 proposed Transfer, the proposed Transferee's creditworthiness and prospects,
 its intended use of the Premises, and the compatibility of such use with the
 other tenants and the character of the Building as a first-class office
 building. Any request by Tenant for such consent shall be in writing and shall
 include the name of the proposed Transferee, the nature of its business and
 proposed use of the Premises, complete information as to its financial
 condition and prospects, and all material terms and conditions of the proposed
 Transfer. Tenant shall supply such additional information about the proposed
 Transfer and Transferee as the Landlord reasonably requests. Tenant shall
 reimburse Landlord for its reasonable legal and other reasonable out-of-pocket
 expenses in connection with any request for consent. If Tenant is a
 corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business
 organization, the following matters shall constitute a Transfer: (i) the
 transfer of or issuance of ownership interests, whether in one transaction or a
 series, equaling fifty (50%) percent or more of the equity interests in Tenant,
 or (ii) a reduction of Tenant's assets to the point that this Lease constitutes
 a substantial portion of Tenant's assets.

                (b)     Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may assign its
 entire interest under this Lease to a successor to Tenant by merger,
 consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or
 any division of Tenant which is a separate legal entity (any such transaction
 with respect to Tenant or a division of Tenant, being hereinafter referred to
 as a "Merger") without the consent of Landlord, provided that all of the
 following conditions are satisfied and provided an Assumption Document
 (hereafter defined) is executed by Tenant and the assignee and delivered to
 Landlord prior to the effective date thereof: (i) Tenant is not in default
 under this Lease beyond any applicable grace or cure period, (ii) in the case
 of a Merger with respect to Tenant, Tenant's successor shall have a net worth
 which is at least equal to Tenant's net worth as of the date hereof, or in the
 case of a Merger with respect to a division of Tenant, Tenant shall have a net
 worth after such transaction which is at least equal to Tenant's net worth as
 of the date hereof and Tenant shall confirm to Landlord in writing its
 continuing liability hereunder, and (iii) Tenant shall give Landlord written
 notice at least 30 days prior to

                                     - 40 -
<Page>

 the effective date of the proposed Merger. Tenant's notice to Landlord shall
 include information and documentation showing that each of the above conditions
 has been satisfied. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may
 sublease all or a portion of the Premises to an Affiliate without Landlord's
 consent for so long as any such subtenant remains an Affiliate of the Tenant,
 provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied and provided an
 Assumption Document (hereafter defined) is executed by Tenant and the subtenant
 and delivered to Landlord prior to the effective date thereof: (i) Tenant is
 not in default under this Lease beyond any applicable grace or cure period, and
 (ii) Tenant shall give Landlord written notice at least 30 days prior to the
 effective date of the proposed subletting. Tenant's notice to Landlord shall
 include information and documentation showing that each of the other conditions
 have been satisfied and that the subtenant is an Affiliate. "Affiliate" shall
 mean an entity which controls, is controlled by, or is under common control
 with, Tenant. Any Transfer described in this paragraph is herein referred to as
 a "Permitted Transfer."

                (c)     Any Transfer shall specifically make applicable to the
 Transferee all of the provisions of this Section so that Landlord shall have
 against the Transferee all rights with respect to any further Transfer which
 are set forth herein. No Transfer (including without limitation a Permitted
 Transfer and any Transfer subsequent to a prior Transfer) shall affect the
 continuing primary liability of Tenant (including without limitation the
 originally named Tenant and any successor by assignment), which continuing
 primary liability shall be joint and several with each Transferee. No consent
 to any Transfer in a specific instance shall operate as a waiver in a
 subsequent instance. No Transfer shall be binding upon Landlord or its
 successors, unless Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a recordable instrument
 satisfactory to Landlord (an "Assumption Document") containing a covenant of
 assumption of all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder by the Transferee
 running to Landlord and all persons claiming by, through or under Landlord,
 provided that Landlord shall be under no obligation to recognize any subtenant
 upon termination of this Lease unless Landlord elects to consent to such
 recognition in Landlord's consent, which election may be made or withheld in
 Landlord's sole discretion. The Transferee's failure to execute such instrument
 shall not, however, release or discharge Transferee from its liability as a
 Transferee hereunder. Tenant shall not enter into any Transfer that provides
 for rental or other payment based on the net income or profits derived from the
 Premises. With respect to any Transfer other than a Permitted Transfer,
 Landlord shall be entitled to receive fifty percent (50%) of any consideration,
 however realized, which is received by Tenant on account of such Transfer in
 excess of the Annual Base Rent and additional rent reserved in this Lease
 applicable to the space being Transferred, after deducting therefrom all
 reasonable and customary expenses (including but not limited to bona fide
 brokerage fees, fit-up expenses, free rent periods, marketing costs and
 attorneys' fees) directly incurred by Tenant attributable to the Transfer
 (other than reimbursement of Landlord's reasonable review fees) ("Transfer
 Profit"). For purposes of calculating Transfer Profit, any bona fide amounts
 paid by the transferee for the transferor's movable personal property or
 intellectual property rights shall not be considered consideration. The
 provisions of this paragraph (c) apply equally to Permitted Transfers and
 Transfers for which Landlord's consent is required; provided, however, Landlord
 shall not be entitled to receive any Transfer Profit with respect to any
 Permitted Transfer.

                (d)     LANDLORD OPTION.

                                     - 41 -
<Page>

                        (1)     RIGHT TO CANCEL. Notwithstanding any contrary
        provision of this Section 6.1.6 in connection with any proposed Transfer
        other than a Permitted Transfer, Landlord shall have an option
        ("Landlord's Right to Cancel") to cancel and terminate this Lease by
        notice to Tenant ("Cancellation Notice") if the request is to assign the
        Lease or to sublet all of the Premises; or, if the request is to sublet
        more than 30,000 square feet of rentable floor area but less than the
        entire Premises for 30 or more months, taking into account any extension
        options (or if less, the remainder of the Term), to cancel and terminate
        this Lease with respect to such portion. Landlord may exercise
        Landlord's Right to Cancel in a written notice given within twenty-one
        (21) days following the date Tenant gives Tenant's request to assign or
        sublet, and such cancellation or termination shall occur as of the
        commencement date of the proposed sublease or assignment. Landlord shall
        be deemed to have waived Landlord's Right to Cancel with respect to the
        assignment or sublease in question if Landlord has not given written
        notice of such cancellation within such twenty-one (21) day period.

        If Landlord exercises Landlord's Right to Cancel, then within ten (10)
        business days following the date Landlord gives the Cancellation Notice,
        Tenant may give notice to Landlord revoking its request for consent to
        the Transfer and certifying that Tenant will not proceed with the
        proposed Transfer. In the event Tenant timely gives such notice, Tenant
        shall not proceed with the Transfer, Landlord's Cancellation Notice will
        have no force or effect with respect to the Transfer request in question
        and the Lease will continue in full force and effect with respect to the
        premises subject to such request.

                        (2)     CANCELLATION. If Landlord exercises Landlord's
        option to cancel this Lease or any portion thereof as the case may be,
        Tenant shall surrender possession of the Premises, or the portion
        thereof, which is the subject of the option, as the case may be, on the
        date set forth in such notice in accordance with the provisions of this
        Lease relating to surrender of the Premises at the expiration of the
        Term, as if the Term had expired with respect to the Premises or portion
        thereof, as the case may be. If this Lease is cancelled as to a portion
        of the Premises only, (i) Annual Base Rent after the date of
        cancellation shall be abated on a pro rata basis, and (ii) Landlord
        shall have the right at Landlord's cost and expense to construct a
        demising wall between Tenant's remaining Premises and the premises for
        which the Lease was cancelled.

                (e)     Any agreement by which Tenant agrees to enter into or
 execute any Transfer at the direction of any other party without Landlord's
 consent, or assigns its rights in the income arising from any Transfer to any
 other party, shall itself constitute a Transfer hereunder.

                (f)     Any Transfer or attempted Transfer not in compliance
 with all of the terms and conditions set forth above shall be void, and shall
 be a default under this Lease.

                (g)     Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Lease,
 Tenant shall have no right to assign this Lease or sublet all or any portion of
 the Premises and any such assignment or sublease shall be void unless on both
 (i) the date on which Tenant notifies Landlord of its intent to enter into any
 assignment or sublease and (ii) the date on which such assignment or sublease
 is to take effect, Tenant is not in default of any of its obligations under

                                     - 42 -

 this Lease beyond any applicable grace or cure period; provided, however, that
 Landlord shall retain the right to waive the provisions of this Section
 6.1.6(g).

                (h)     The acceptance by the Landlord of the payment of Annual
 Base Rent, additional rent or other charges following an assignment, subletting
 or other Transfer prohibited by this Section 6.1.6 shall not be deemed to be a
 consent by the Landlord to any such assignment, subletting or other Transfer,
 nor shall the same constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of the Landlord.

        6.1.7   INDEMNITY. To defend, with counsel reasonably approved by
Landlord, all actions against Landlord, Manager, any partner, member, trustee,
stockholder, officer, director, employee or beneficiary of Landlord or Manager,
holders of mortgages secured by the Premises or the Building or Lot and any
other party having an interest in the Premises ("Indemnified Parties") with
respect to, and to pay, protect, indemnify and save harmless, to the extent
permitted by law, all Indemnified Parties from and against, any and all
liabilities, losses, damages, out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses), causes of action, suits, claims,
demands or judgments of any nature to the extent (a) arising from Tenant's use
and occupancy of the Premises or any activity done or permitted or suffered to
be done by Tenant in, on, or about the Premises, (b) arising from any breach or
default by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease, (c) arising from any act
or omission of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees or contractors or (d)

Materials (as defined in Section 6.1.3 hereof) by or for Tenant or any agent,
employee, contractor, licensee, sublessee or invitee of Tenant on, in or about
the Premises, the Lot or any common facilities appurtenant thereto or any

require, upon notice to the Tenant, but not more than once per year; provided,
however, that

                                     - 43 -
<Page>

Tenant shall have the right to self insure for any additional coverages if
Tenant has a minimum net worth of at least $75,000,000. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the initial Tenant named herein shall have the right to self insure
with respect to the coverages set forth in clauses (ii) and (v) above.

        All insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Section
6.1.8 may be provided under one or more blanket insurance policies covering
other locations and facilities operated by Tenant, provided that such blanket

reserve to the Premises, Building, Lease and Tenant's obligations hereunder
coverages in the limits required hereunder.

        All policies shall be taken out, in form reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord, with Tenant's current insurance provider or may be taken out with a

Massachusetts with a Best's insurance rating of not less than A:X, and shall (i)
include Landlord, Manager and any mortgagee of Landlord as additional insureds,
as their interests may appear, (ii) contain a waiver of any right of subrogation
against Landlord, its agents, employees, and representatives which might arise

before the Commencement Date, and shall provide certificates evidencing renewal
at least ten (10) days before the expiration of such policy. All policies shall
contain an endorsement requiring at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice
to Landlord and any mortgagee of Landlord prior to any material change,
reduction, cancellation or other termination.

        Upon termination of this Lease pursuant to any casualty, Tenant shall
immediately pay to Landlord any insurance proceeds received by Tenant relating
to the Landlord's Work and any alterations or improvements to the Premises,
unless Landlord has required their removal.

        6.1.9   INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

        6.1.10  LANDLORD'S RIGHT OF ENTRY. To permit Landlord and Landlord's
agents entry: to examine the Premises at reasonable times and, upon reasonable
prior notice (except no prior notice is required in case of emergency) and, if
Landlord shall so elect, to make repairs or replacements; to remove, at Tenant's
expense, any changes, additions, signs, curtains, blinds, shades, awnings,
aerials, flagpoles, or the like which required, but for which Tenant never
obtained, Landlord's consent in writing, and which Tenant has not removed within
thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord; and to show the Premises to
others upon reasonable advance notice. Landlord shall permit Tenant or its agent
to accompany Landlord when it enters the Premises pursuant to this Section and
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate Tenant's schedule in
light of the confidential materials Tenant intends to maintain at the Premises,
and Landlord shall use best efforts to protect and keep confidential the
confidential materials Tenant maintains at the Premises.

        6.1.11  LOADING. Not to place Tenant's Property, as defined in Section
6.1.13, upon the Premises so as to exceed a rate of eighty (80) pounds of live
load per square foot and not to move

in such manner and at such times as Landlord shall in each instance approve.
Landlord agrees that prior to the Term Commencement Date Tenant may reinforce
the area of the Premises described in EXHIBIT F, subject to reasonable
conditions imposed by Landlord after review of all plans and specifications
which shall be prepared by Landlord's structural engineer at Tenant's expense,
and provided Tenant has obtained all required permits and licenses required from
all applicable governmental authorities. Such reinforcement work shall be
subject to the provisions of this Lease, including without limitation Sections
3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 and the provisions of Section 3.5 relating to access to the
second floor (west) of the Building in connection therewith. Tenant's business
machines and mechanical equipment which cause vibration or noise that may be
transmitted to the Building structure or to any other leased space in the
Building shall be placed and maintained by Tenant in settings of cork, rubber,
spring or other types of vibration eliminators sufficient to eliminate such
vibration or noise.

        6.1.12  LANDLORD'S COSTS. In case Landlord or Manager shall be made
party to any litigation commenced by or against Tenant or by or against any
parties in possession of the Premises or any part thereof claiming under Tenant,
Tenant agrees to pay, as additional rent, all actual out-of-pocket costs,
including, without implied limitation, reasonable counsel fees, incurred by or
imposed upon Landlord in connection with such litigation.

        6.1.13  TENANT'S PROPERTY. All the furnishings, fixtures, equipment,
effects and property of every kind, nature and description of Tenant and of all
persons claiming by, through or under Tenant (collectively, "Tenant's Property")
which, during the continuance of this Lease or any occupancy of the Premises by
Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant, may be on the Premises or elsewhere in
the Building or on the Lot shall be at the sole risk and hazard of Tenant, and
if the whole or any part thereof shall be destroyed or damaged by fire, water or
otherwise, or by the leakage or bursting of water pipes, steam pipes, or other
pipes, by theft, or from any other cause, no part of said loss or damage is to
be charged to or to be borne by Landlord; provided however that the foregoing
shall not apply to any damage or destruction caused solely by the negligent acts
or omissions of Landlord, the Manager or their respective contractors,
employees, agents or invitees, this provision, however, remaining subject to the
waivers of claims by Tenant contained in Section 10.18.

        6.1.14  LABOR OR MATERIALMEN'S LIENS. To pay promptly when due the
entire cost of any work done on the Premises by or for Tenant, its agents,
employees or independent contractors; not to cause or permit any liens for labor
or materials performed or furnished in connection therewith to attach to the
Premises; and immediately to discharge or bond over any such liens which may so
attach.

        6.1.15  INTENTIONALLY DELETED.

        6.1.16  HOLDOVER. To pay to Landlord the greater of one hundred fifty
percent (150%) (such percentage to be 200% for the forty-fifth (45th) and all
subsequent days of holding over if Tenant holds over for more than forty-five
days) of (a) the then fair market monthly rent as reasonably determined by
Landlord or (b) the total monthly payments of Annual Base Rent and additional
rent (and all other sums otherwise due hereunder) applicable at the end of the
Term for each month or portion thereof Tenant shall retain possession of the
Premises or any part thereof

                                     - 45 -
<Page>

after the termination of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, and
also to pay all expenses and damages incurred or sustained by Landlord on
account thereof (such expenses and damages to exclude consequential and
incidental damages if the holding over is less than forty-five (45) days, and to
include consequential and incidental damages if the holding over is for
forty-five (45) days or more); the provisions of this subsection shall not
operate as a waiver by Landlord of the right of re-entry provided in this Lease.

        6.1.17  SECURITY. To indemnify, and save Landlord and Manager harmless
from any claim for injury to person or damage to property asserted by any
personnel, employee, guest, invitee or agent of Tenant which is suffered or
occurs in or about the Premises or in or about the Building or the Lot or the
common facilities appurtenant thereto by reason of the act of any intruder or
any other person in or about the Premises, the Building, the Lot or such common
facilities; except to the extent such injury or damage is caused solely by the
negligent acts or omissions of Landlord, this exception, however, remaining
subject to the waivers of claims by Tenant contained in Section 10.18.

        6.1.18  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. To furnish to Landlord annually within
ninety (90) days of the end of each calendar year during the Term, Tenant's most
recent audited financial statements (including any notes to them) or, if no such
audited statements have been prepared, such other financial statements (and
notes to them) as may have been most recently prepared by an independent
certified public accountant or, if no such statements have been prepared,
current internally prepared financial statements in form acceptable to Landlord,
certified by Tenant's Chief Financial Officer. Tenant agrees that in the event
Tenant's corporate structure is altered through merger, acquisition or the like,
such that Tenant becomes a parent, division, or subsidiary of another corporate
entity, any and all financial statements delivered by Tenant pursuant to this
Section will contain financial information pertaining only to Tenant's
operations and not to any such parent, division, or subsidiary. The foregoing
shall not be deemed to constitute Landlord's consent to any Transfer or in any
way derogate from the provisions of Section 6.1.6. Tenant represents and
warrants that any financial statements provided by it to Landlord were true,
correct and complete when provided, and that no material adverse change has
occurred since that date which would render them inaccurate or misleading, and
each delivery of financial statements hereunder to Landlord shall be deemed a
representation and warranty that such statements are true, correct and complete
as of the date of delivery to Landlord. Without limitation of any other
obligation under this Lease, the parties agree that this Section 6.1.18 shall
apply to each person or entity which is liable to Landlord under this Lease. The
provisions of this Section 6.1.18 shall be inapplicable for as long as the
shares of Tenant's stock are listed or traded on a national securities exchange
and Tenant is in compliance with the periodic report filings required pursuant
to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                               CASUALTY AND TAKING

7.1     CASUALTY AND TAKING.

In case during the Term all or any substantial part of the Premises, Building,
Lot or common facilities appurtenant thereto, or any one or more of them, are
damaged materially by fire or any

                                     - 46 -
<Page>

other cause, or by action of the public or other authority in consequence
thereof or are taken by eminent domain or Landlord receives compensable damage
with respect thereto by reason of anything lawfully done in pursuance of public
or other authority (collectively, a "Casualty or Taking"), this Lease shall
terminate at Landlord's election, which may be made, notwithstanding Landlord's
entire interest may have been divested, by notice to Tenant within ninety (90)
days after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the election to terminate,
which notice shall specify the effective date of termination which shall be not
less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of notice of
such termination.

In case during the Term (a) all or a substantial portion of the Premises are
damaged or taken by a Casualty or Taking or (b) a sufficient portion of the
common areas are damaged or taken by a Casualty or Taking to preclude practical
access to the Premises, and in the case of either (a) or (b), as a result of
such damage or taking the Premises or a substantial portion thereof are rendered
unusable for the conduct of Tenant's business, and such damage is of a character
as cannot in Landlord's reasonable judgment reasonably be expected to be
repaired within twelve (12) months of the Casualty or Taking, then, so long as
Tenant is not in default of any of its obligations under the Lease beyond any
applicable grace or cure periods, this Lease shall terminate at Tenant's
election, which may be made, notwithstanding Tenant's entire interest may have
been divested, within thirty (30) days after Landlord's delivery to Tenant of
the estimate of the time period for such restoration. Landlord will provide such
estimate to Tenant within ninety (90) days following the Casualty or Taking. Any
such termination shall be effective on the date of the event giving rise to the
election.

If in any such case the Premises are rendered unfit for use and occupation for
the Permitted Uses and the Lease is not terminated, and Tenant is not then in
default of any of its obligations under the Lease beyond applicable grace and
cure periods, Landlord shall use due diligence to put that portion of the
Building containing the Premises, including Initial Tenant Improvements paid for
out of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, or, in case of a taking, what may
remain thereof (excluding any other items installed or paid for by Tenant) into
proper condition for use and occupation to the extent permitted by zoning and
other codes and regulations and by the net award of insurance or damages
available to and actually received by Landlord, plus any applicable deductible,
and a just proportion of the Annual Base Rent and additional rent according to
the nature and extent of the injury shall be abated until such portion of the
Building or such remainder shall have been put by Landlord in such condition;
and in case of a taking which permanently reduces the area of the Premises, a
just proportion of the Annual Base Rent and additional rent shall be abated for
the remainder of the Term and an appropriate adjustment shall be made to the
Annual Estimated Operating Expenses.

If neither party elects to terminate this Lease as provided herein, Tenant
shall, at its own cost and expense, repair and restore the Premises (exclusive
of the Initial Tenant Improvements paid for out of the Tenant Improvement
Allowance) in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5,
including, but not limited to, the repairing and/or replacement of Tenant's
trade fixtures, furnishings and equipment in a manner and to at least a
condition equal to that prior to its damage or destruction. Tenant agrees to
commence the performance of its work within thirty (30) days after Tenant
receives written notification from Landlord that the work to be performed by
Tenant can, in accordance with good construction practices, then be commenced
and Tenant shall complete such work as promptly thereafter as is practicable.

                                     - 47 -
<Page>

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, in the event of any taking of the
Premises or any part thereof for temporary use, this Lease shall be and remain
unaffected thereby and rent shall equitably abate for the period of such taking
to the extent Tenant is unable to use, occupy or access the Premises or any
portion thereof.

7.2     RESERVATION OF AWARD.

Landlord reserves to itself any and all rights to receive awards made for
damages to the Premises, Building, Lot or common facilities appurtenant thereto
and the leasehold hereby created, or any one or more of them, accruing by reason
of exercise of eminent domain or by reason of anything lawfully done in
pursuance of public or other authority. Tenant hereby releases and assigns to
Landlord all Tenant's rights to such awards, and covenants to deliver such
further assignments and assurances thereof as Landlord may from time to time
request. It is agreed and understood, however, that Landlord does not reserve to
itself, and Tenant does not assign to Landlord, any damages payable for (i)
movable trade fixtures installed by Tenant or anybody claiming under Tenant, at
its own expense or (ii) relocation expenses recoverable by Tenant from such
authority in a separate action; provided and only to the extent that, in the
case of both (i) and (ii), such damages payable to Tenant do not reduce the
award otherwise available to Landlord.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                      RIGHTS OF MORTGAGEE AND GROUND LESSOR

8.1     PRIORITY OF LEASE.

Provided that Landlord delivers to Tenant a Non Disturbance Agreement (hereafter
defined), this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to any mortgage
("Mortgage") or ground lease ("Ground Lease") now or hereinafter placed on or
affecting the Lot, the Building, or both, or any portion or portions thereof or
interest therein, which are separately and together hereinafter in this Article
VIII referred to as the "affected premises," and to each advance made or
hereafter to be made under any Mortgage, and to all renewals, modifications,
consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof and all substitutions of any
Mortgage or Ground Lease.

        In the event that any mortgagee or its successor in title or any ground
lessor shall succeed to the interest of Landlord, then Tenant shall and does
hereby agree to attorn to such mortgagee or successor or ground lessor and to
recognize such mortgagee or successor or ground lessor as its Landlord. Any
claim by Tenant under the Lease against the mortgagee or such successor shall be
satisfied solely out of the mortgagee's or such successor's or ground lessor's
interest in the Premises and Tenant shall not seek recovery against or out of
any other assets of mortgagee or such successor or ground lessor.

        "Non disturbance Agreement" shall mean an agreement substantially in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit K.

        Simultaneously with the execution of this Lease, Landlord shall deliver
a Non Disturbance Agreement from each existing mortgagee and ground lessor.

                                     - 48 -
<Page>

8.2     RIGHTS OF MORTGAGEE AND GROUND LESSOR TO CURE.

No act or failure to act on the part of Landlord which would entitle Tenant,
under the terms of this Lease or as a matter of law, to be released from
Tenant's obligations hereunder or to terminate this Lease shall result in a
release of such obligations or a termination of this Lease unless Tenant first
gives written notice of and a specific description of Landlord's act or failure
to act to Landlord's mortgagees and ground lessors of whom Tenant has been given
written notice, if any, and such mortgagee and ground lessor fail to cure such
default within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice. However, if such
cure reasonably requires more than thirty days to effect, such mortgagee and
ground lessor shall have such additional time as is reasonably necessary in the
circumstances, including time to take possession of the Property. This Section
shall not impose any obligation on any such mortgagee or ground lessor. Tenant's
execution of estoppel certificates, nondisturbance agreements or similar
agreements which identify Landlord's mortgagee or ground lessor shall be deemed
to be notice to Tenant hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                     DEFAULT

9.1     EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

If Tenant fails to pay any installment of Annual Base Rent when due, and such
default continues for seven (7) business days after notice from Landlord
(provided that Tenant shall be entitled to such notice and seven-day grace
period for only the first two such defaults in any twelve-month period), or if
Tenant fails to pay any installment of additional rent or any other monetary
obligation to Landlord when due, and such default continues for ten (10) days
following notice from Landlord, or if any representation or warranty of Tenant
is not true in all material respects when made, or if Tenant fails to provide an
estoppel certificate to Landlord within the time period provided and otherwise
in accordance with Section 10.9 hereof, and such failure continues for five (5)
business days after a second request to have the certificate provided by Tenant
is given, which to be effective, such second notice must have at the top, in
bold type face and in a font greater than the rest of the notice, the following
statement: "Important Notice: Failure to respond within five (5) business days
may lead to an Event of Default under your Lease for 55 Cambridge Parkway,
Cambridge, MA," and continues for three (3) business days after a third request
to have the certificate provided by Tenant is given, which to be effective, such
third notice must have at the top, in bold type face and in a font greater than
the rest of the notice, the following statement: "Important and Final Notice:
Failure to respond within three (3) business days will constitute an Event of
Default under your Lease for 55 Cambridge Parkway, Cambridge, MA," or if Tenant
fails to timely procure and maintain any insurance as required by any provision
of this Lease, or if Tenant assigns this Lease or subleases any portion of the
Premises in violation of Section 6.1.6, or if any other default under this Lease
continues for more than thirty (30) days after notice, or such longer period as
may be reasonably necessary to cure such default so long as Tenant commences
such cure within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues
such cure to completion (but in no event shall the aggregate cure period exceed
one hundred twenty (120) days); or if Tenant becomes insolvent, fails to pay its
debts as they fall due, files a petition under any chapter of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 101 et seq., as it may be amended (or any similar
petition under any insolvency law of

                                     - 49 -
<Page>

any jurisdiction), or if such petition is filed against Tenant; or if Tenant
proposes any dissolution, liquidation, composition, financial reorganization or
recapitalization with creditors, makes an assignment or trust mortgage for
benefit of creditors, or if a receiver, trustee, custodian or similar agent is
appointed or takes possession with respect to any property of Tenant; or if the
leasehold hereby created is taken on execution or other process of law in any
action against Tenant or if a default (beyond any applicable notice and cure
period) shall occur under any First Offer Lease (each of the foregoing being
referred to herein as an "Event of Default"); then, and in any such case, or in
the case of any other Event of Default so identified in this Lease, Landlord and
the agents and servants of Landlord may, in addition to and not in derogation of
any remedies for any preceding breach of covenant, immediately or at any time
thereafter while such default continues and remains uncured and without further
notice, at Landlord's election, do any one or more of the following: (1) give
Tenant written notice stating that the Lease is terminated, effective upon the
giving of such notice or upon a date stated in such notice, as Landlord may
elect, in which event the Lease shall be irrevocably extinguished and terminated
as stated in such notice without any further action, and (2) with or without
process of law, enter and repossess the Premises as of Landlord's former estate,
and expel Tenant and those claiming through or under Tenant, and remove its and
their effects, without being guilty of trespass, in which event the Lease shall
be irrevocably extinguished and terminated at the time of such entry, and (3)
pursue any other rights or remedies permitted by law. Any such termination of
the Lease shall be without prejudice to any remedies which might otherwise be
used for arrears of rent or prior breach of covenant, and in the event of such
termination Tenant shall remain liable under this Lease as hereinafter provided.
Tenant hereby waives all statutory rights (including, without limitation, rights
of redemption, if any) to the extent such rights may be lawfully waived, and
Landlord, without notice to Tenant, may store Tenant's effects and those of any
person claiming through or under Tenant at the expense and risk of Tenant and,
if Landlord so elects, may sell such effects at public auction or private sale
and apply the net proceeds to the payment of all sums due to Landlord from
Tenant, if any, and pay over the balance, if any, to Tenant.

9.2     TENANT'S OBLIGATIONS AFTER TERMINATION.

In the event that this Lease is terminated under any of the provisions contained
in Section 9.1 or shall be otherwise terminated for breach of any obligation of
Tenant, Tenant covenants to pay forthwith to Landlord, as compensation, the
excess of the total rent reserved for the residue of the Term over the fair
market rental value of the Premises for said residue of the Term as determined
by Landlord in good faith. In calculating the rent reserved, there shall be
included, in addition to the Annual Base Rent and all additional rent, the value
of all other consideration agreed to be paid or performed by Tenant for said
residue. Tenant further covenants as an additional and cumulative obligation
after any such ending to pay punctually to Landlord all the sums (including
without limitation, Annual Base Rent and additional rent) and perform all the
obligations which Tenant covenants in this Lease to pay and to perform in the
same manner and to the same extent and at the same time as if this Lease had not
been terminated. In calculating the amounts to be paid by Tenant under the
immediately preceding sentence, Tenant shall be credited with any amount paid to
Landlord as compensation as provided in the first sentence of this Section 9.2
and also with the net proceeds of any rents obtained by Landlord by reletting
the Premises, after deducting all Landlord's expenses in connection with such
reletting, including, without implied limitation, all repossession costs,
brokerage commissions, fees for legal services and expenses of preparing the
Premises for such reletting, it being agreed by Tenant that

                                     - 50 -
<Page>

Landlord may (i) relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof for a term or
terms which may at Landlord's option be equal to or less than or exceed the
period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may
grant such concessions and free rent as Landlord in good faith considers
advisable or necessary to relet the same and (ii) make such alterations, repairs
and decorations in the Premises as Landlord in good faith considers advisable or
necessary to relet the same, and no action of Landlord in accordance with the
foregoing or failure to relet or to collect rent under reletting shall operate
or be construed to release or reduce Tenant's liability as aforesaid. Landlord
shall use reasonable efforts to relet the Premises.

In lieu of full recovery by Landlord of all sums payable under the foregoing
provisions of this Section 9.2, Landlord may by written notice to Tenant, at any
time after this Lease is terminated under any of the provisions contained in
Section 9.1, or is otherwise terminated for breach of any obligation of Tenant
and before such full recovery, elect to recover and Tenant shall thereupon pay,
as liquidated damages, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the amount of Annual
Base Rent and additional rent of any kind accrued and unpaid at the time of
termination, plus (B) an amount equal to the product of (x) twelve (12) (or if
less, the number of months which would have otherwise remained in the Term)
multiplied by (y) the aggregate of the Annual Base Rent and additional rent
accrued under Article IV in the month ended next prior to such termination.

Nothing contained in this Lease shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of
Landlord to prove 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, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to
above.

10.3    BIND AND INURE.

The obligations of this Lease shall run with the land, and this Lease shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns, except that the Landlord named herein and each
successive owner of the Premises shall be liable only for the obligations
accruing during the period of its ownership.

10.4    LIMITATION ON LIABILITY.

        10.4.1  The obligations of Landlord do not constitute personal
obligations of the trustees, partners, directors, officers or shareholders of
Landlord, Landlord's beneficiary or any constituent partner of Landlord's
beneficiary, and Tenant shall not seek recourse against the trustees, partners,
directors, officers or shareholders of Landlord, Landlord's beneficiary or any
constituent partner of Landlord's beneficiary or any of their personal assets
for satisfaction of any liability with respect to this Lease or otherwise.

        10.4.2  Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy shall be against the
Landlord's interest in the Building and Lot and the rents and profits therefrom,
including insurance proceeds, eminent domain awards, and the proceeds of any
sale of the Building or Lot.

        10.4.3  Neither Landlord's beneficiary not any constituent partner of

respect to holding over by Tenant.

10.5    NO SURRENDER.

The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord or to Manager or any employee
or agent thereof shall not operate as a termination of this Lease or a surrender
of the Premises. No act by

                                     - 52 -
<Page>

Landlord or Manager or any employee or agent thereof shall be deemed an
acceptance of a surrender of the Premises.

10.6    NO WAIVER, ETC.

The failure of either party to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon
the strict performance of any covenant or condition of this Lease shall not be
deemed a waiver of such violation nor prevent a subsequent act, which would have
originally constituted a violation, from having all the force and effect of an
original violation, nor shall the failure of Landlord to enforce any of the
Rules and Regulations against any other tenant in the Building be deemed a
waiver of any such Rules or Regulations. The receipt by Landlord of Annual Base
Rent or additional rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of this
Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach by Landlord, unless such
waiver be in writing and signed by Landlord. No consent or waiver, express or
implied, by either party to or of any breach of any agreement or duty shall be
construed as a waiver or consent to or of any other breach of the same or any
other agreement or duty.

10.7    NO ACCORD AND SATISFACTION.

No acceptance by Landlord of a lesser sum than the Annual Base Rent and
additional rent then due shall be deemed to be other than on account of the
earliest installment of such rent due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on
any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed as
accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without
prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such installment or
pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.

10.8    CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.

The specific remedies to which Landlord may resort under the terms of this Lease
are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or
means of redress to which it may be lawfully entitled in case of any breach or
threatened breach by Tenant of any provisions of this Lease. In addition to the
other remedies provided in this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to the
restraint by injunction of the violation or attempted or threatened violation of
any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease or to a decree
compelling specific performance of any such covenants, conditions or provisions.

The specific remedies to which Tenant may resort under the terms of this Lease
are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or
means of redress to which it may be lawfully entitled in case of any breach or
threatened breach by Landlord of any provisions of this Lease. In addition to
the other remedies provided in this Lease, Tenant shall be entitled to the
restraint by injunction of the violation or attempted or threatened violation of
any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease or to a decree
compelling specific performance of any such covenants, conditions or provisions.
Notwithstanding the forgoing, this paragraph shall not apply to defaults by
Landlord for which a remedy by Tenant is specified in this Lease to be the sole
or exclusive remedy for such default, and to this paragraph shall not be deemed
to create any remedies or means of redress for Tenant which are otherwise
excluded in this Lease.

10.9    LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO CURE.

If Tenant shall at any time default in the performance of any obligation under
this Lease, then following the applicable "Delay Period" (as set forth below),
if any, Landlord shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to enter upon
the Premises and to perform such obligation, notwithstanding the fact that no
specific provision for such substituted performance by Landlord is made in this
Lease with respect to such default. In performing such obligation, Landlord may
make any payment of money or perform any other act as Landlord deems advisable.
All sums paid by Landlord (together with interest at the Default Interest Rate)
and all incidental costs and expenses in connection with the performance of any
such act by Landlord (together with interest at the Default Interest Rate),
shall be deemed to be additional rent under this Lease and shall be payable to
Landlord immediately on demand. Landlord may exercise the foregoing rights
without waiving any other of its rights or releasing Tenant from any of its
obligations under this Lease. There shall be no Delay Period in any circumstance
or situation in which Landlord believes in good faith that there is an imminent
threat of injury or damage to the Building (or the systems or structure thereof)
or people or Landlord's interest in the Building and Lot. The Delay Period shall
be five (5) business days after notice to Tenant specifying the subject default
in any circumstance or situation in which Tenant's default directly results in
the annoyance to or interference with any other occupant's use and enjoyment of
the Building. The Delay Period shall be the cure period specified in Section 9.1
for the subject default in all other circumstances and situations.

10.10   ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.

Tenant agrees, from time to time, upon not less than ten (10) days' prior
written request by Landlord, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a
statement in writing in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, or in such other
reasonable form as may be requested by Landlord, certifying that this Lease is
unmodified and in full force and effect; that Tenant has no defenses, offsets or
counterclaims against its obligations to pay the Annual Base Rent and additional
rent and to perform its other covenants under this Lease; that there are no
uncured defaults of Landlord or Tenant under this Lease (or, if there have been
modifications, that this Lease is in full force and effect as modified and
stating the modifications, and, if there are any defenses, offsets,
counterclaims, or defaults, setting them forth in reasonable detail); the dates
to which the Annual Base Rent, additional rent and other charges have been paid;
and any other information reasonably requested by Landlord. Any such statement
delivered pursuant to this Section 10.10 shall be in a form reasonably
acceptable to and may be relied upon by Landlord, or any prospective purchaser,
mortgagee or ground lessor of premises which include the Premises or any portion
thereof or any prospective assignee of any such mortgagee or ground lessor.
Reference is hereby made to Section 10.14 with respect to modifications of the
Lease.

10.11   ACTS OF GOD.

In any case where Landlord or Tenant is required to do any act, delays caused by
or resulting from Acts of God, war, civil commotion, fire, flood or other
casualty, labor difficulties, shortages of labor, materials or equipment,
government regulations, unusually severe weather, or other causes beyond such
party's reasonable control shall not be counted in determining the time during
which work shall be completed, whether such time be designated by a fixed date,
a fixed

                                     - 54 -
<Page>

time or a "reasonable time", and such time shall be deemed to be extended by the
period of such delay. The provisions of this Section 10.11 shall not apply to
monetary obligations of Tenant.

10.12   BROKERAGE.

Tenant and Landlord each represents and warrants to the other that it dealt with
no brokers in connection with this transaction other than the Broker, as
designated in Section 1.1, and agrees to defend, with counsel approved by the
other, indemnify and save the other harmless from and against any and all cost,
expense or liability in the event such representation in false or alleged to be
false.

10.13   SUBMISSION NOT AN OFFER.

The submission of a draft of this Lease or a summary of some or all of its
provisions, or the acceptance of a letter of intent to lease, does not
constitute an offer to lease or demise the Premises or bind the Landlord and
Tenant, it being understood and agreed that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be
legally bound with respect to the leasing of the Premises unless and until this
Lease in form satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant, each in its sole discretion,
has been executed by both Landlord and Tenant and a fully executed copy has been
delivered to each of them.

10.14   APPLICABLE LAW AND CONSTRUCTION.

This Lease shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If any term, covenant, condition or provision of
this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall be
declared invalid or unenforceable by the final ruling of a court of competent
jurisdiction having final review, the remaining terms, covenants, conditions and
provisions of this Lease and their application to other persons or circumstances
shall not be affected thereby and shall continue to be enforced and recognized
as valid agreements of the parties, and in the place of such invalid or
unenforceable provision, there shall be substituted a like, but valid and
enforceable provision which comports to the findings of the aforesaid court and
most nearly accomplishes the original intention of the parties.

There are no oral or written agreements between Landlord and Tenant affecting
this Lease. Landlord has made no representation or warranty regarding the
Building, the Premises, the Lot or the subject matter of this Lease except as
may be expressly set forth herein. This Lease may be amended, and the provisions
hereof may be amended or modified, only by a separate written instrument signed
by both Landlord and Tenant, which instrument is titled "Lease Amendment" (or
words of similar import) and recites that such instrument is an amendment to the
Lease. In addition, neither party may waive any of its rights or options under
this Lease unless such waiver is set forth in a separate written instrument
signed by the party so waiving its rights or options, which instrument is titled
"Lease Waiver" (or word of similar import) and also explicitly recites that such
instrument is a waiver. Accordingly, any provision contained in any estoppel
certificate, any consent, approval or similar instrument which has the effect of
amending, modifying or waiving - as opposed to confirming the existence of - any
of Tenant's rights, options or obligations under the Lease shall NOT be
effective and binding on Landlord or Tenant unless such provision is also
contained in a separate written lease amendment or lease waiver that complies
with the foregoing requirements; notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Tenant

                                     - 55 -
<Page>

acknowledges that Landlord or any current or prospective purchaser, ground
Lessor or mortgagee of the Premises shall be entitled to rely on the accuracy of
any factual statement made by Tenant in any estoppel certificate, consent,
approval or similar instrument, as the case may be; and that any Non-Disturbance
Agreement (defined in Section 8.1) executed by Tenant shall be fully effective
in accordance with its terms (provided further than any Non-Disturbance
Agreement shall not amend or modify the Lease as between Tenant and Landlord,
but shall only be effective and modify or amend the Lease as between Tenant and
Lender, Successor Landlord (as defined in Exhibit K) and their successors and
assigns, and for a lease modification of amendment to be effective as between
Landlord and Tenant, it must be made pursuant to the provisions above).

The titles of the several Articles and Sections contained herein are for
convenience only and shall not be considered in construing this Lease.

Unless repugnant to the context, the words "Landlord" and "Tenant" appearing in
this Lease shall be construed to mean those named above and their respective
heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and those claiming
through or under them respectively. If there be more than one tenant, the
obligations imposed by this Lease upon Tenant shall be joint and several.

10.15   AUTHORITY

        10.15.1         AUTHORITY OF TENANT

Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord (which representations and warranties
shall survive the delivery of this Lease) that: (a) Tenant (i) is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of
incorporation or creation, (ii) has the corporate or other power and authority
to carry on businesses now being conducted and is qualified to do business in
every jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary, and (iii) has the
corporate or other power to execute and deliver and perform its obligations
under this Lease, and (b) the execution, delivery and performance by Tenant of
its obligations under this Lease have been duly authorized by all requisite
corporate or other action and will not violate any provision of law, any order
of any court or other agency of government, the corporate charter or by-laws or
other governing documents of the Tenant or any indenture, agreement or other
instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound. Contemporaneously
with Tenant's execution and delivery of this Lease, Tenant shall furnish to
Landlord written evidence of such authorization.

        10.15.2         AUTHORITY OF LANDLORD

Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant (which representations and warranties
shall survive the delivery of this Lease), that: (a) Landlord (i) is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of
incorporation or creation, (ii) has the corporate or other power and authority
to carry on business now being conducted and is qualified to do business in
every jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary, and (iii) has the
corporate or other power to execute and deliver and perform its obligations
under this Lease, and (b) the execution, delivery and performance by Landlord of
its obligations under this Lease have been duly authorized by all requisite
corporate or other action and will not violate any provision of law, any

                                     - 56 -
<Page>

order of any court or other agency of government, the corporate charter or
by-laws or other governing documents of Landlord or any indenture, agreement or
other instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound.
Contemporaneously with Landlord's execution and delivery of this Lease, Landlord
shall furnish to Tenant written evidence of such authorization.

10.16   CONFIDENTIALITY.

Tenant acknowledges that the terms and conditions of this Lease are to remain
confidential for the Landlord's benefit, and may not be disclosed by Tenant to
anyone (other than to Tenant's attorneys, accountants and creditors as necessary
for Tenant to conduct its business), by any manner or means, directly or
indirectly, without Landlord's prior written consent. The consent by the
Landlord to any disclosures shall not be deemed to be a waiver on the part of
the Landlord of any prohibition against any future disclosure.

10.17   LANDLORD'S FEES; ENFORCEMENT COSTS.

Whenever Tenant requests Landlord to take any action or give any consent
required or permitted under this Lease, Tenant will reimburse Landlord for
Landlord's reasonable and actual out-of-pocket costs incurred in reviewing the
proposed action or consent, including without limitation reasonable attorneys',
engineers' or architects' fees, upon demand. Tenant will be obligated to make
such reimbursement without regard to whether Landlord consents to any such
proposed action.

If either party institutes a suit against the other for violation of or to
enforce any covenant or condition of this Lease, or if either party intervenes
in any suit in which the other is a party to enforce or protect its interest or
rights, the prevailing party shall be entitled to all of its reasonable costs
and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses in or out of litigation, and, if in litigation, trial or appellate
proceedings expended or incurred in connection therewith, as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction

10.18   WAIVER OF SUBROGATION

Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant
each hereby waive any and all right of recovery which it may have against the
other party and its agents, employees, licensees and contractors for any loss or
damage to the Building, Premises or anything therein, and for any injury to or
death of persons occurring in, on or about the Building or Premises, from any
hazard which is covered under an "all risk" property insurance policy required
to be carried hereunder by such waiving party (or which would have been covered
had such policy been carried), or, if providing greater coverage, any "all risk"
property insurance policy actually carried by such waiving party; provided the
waiver herein shall not extend to any loss in excess of the coverage limit of
such insurance policies or the deductible under such insurance policies. The
foregoing waiver shall also be in effect with respect to any hazards which
Tenant self-insures against pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. The waiver
set forth herein shall be in effect notwithstanding that any such loss or damage
may result from the negligence or other fault by the party benefiting from the
waiver. In the event that an extra premium is payable by either party as a
result of this provision, the other party shall reimburse the party paying such
premium the amount of such extra premium. If, at the request of one

                                     - 57 -
<Page>

party, this release and non-subrogation provision is waived, then the obligation
of reimbursement shall cease for a period of time as such waiver shall be
effective. If the release of either party provided above shall contravene any
law with respect to exculpatory agreements, the liability of the party for whose
benefit such release was intended shall remain but shall be secondary to that of
the other party's insurer.

first above written.

                          -   Tenant standard provides one VAV box (zone) per
                              1,000 SF of carpetable floor space (including
                              elevator lobby, bathrooms, and any other air
                              conditioned spaces).
                          -   Interior areas should be equipped with VAV boxes
                              while perimeter areas will be furnished with
                              series-type fan-powered VAV boxes with electric
