LEASE TERM

Lessor shall cause the lease of the current occupant of the Expansion Space to terminate as to the Expansion Space, and shall relocate such occupant from the Expansion Space, on or prior to May 1, 2006. The term of the Lease with respect to the Expansion Space shall be eighty-four (84) months commencing the later of May 1, 2006 and the date Lessor has complied with its obligations in the first sentence of this paragraph and delivers to Lessee possession of the Expansion Space in the required condition (the “Expansion Space Effective Date”) and expiring April 30, 2013. The term of the Lease for the Existing Space shall be extended so it is coterminous. Lessee and Lessee’s agents and employees may access the Expansion Space from time to time prior to the Expansion Space Effective Date to facilitate Lessee’s space planning and physical due diligence. If the Expansion Space Effective Date is delayed for any reason beyond June 1, 2006, then in addition to Lessee’s other rights or remedies, Lessee may terminate this Amendment by written notice to Lessor, or, at Lessee’s election, the date Lessee is otherwise obliged to commence payment of rent for the Expansion Space shall be delayed by one additional calendar day for each calendar day that the Expansion Space Effective Date is delayed beyond such date.

RENT

The Base Rent per rentable square foot for the Expansion Space shall be at the annual rate of $25.00 ($33,108.33 per month) for months 1 through 84. The rent for the Existing Space shall remain as is directed in the Office Lease and earlier amendment for the full eighty-four (84) months.

The “base year” for calculating Lessee’s proportionate share of Comparison Year Costs (if any) with respect to the Expansion Space, shall be the calendar year 2006 and Lessee shall have no obligation to pay its proportionate share of Operating Services and Real Estate Taxes with respect to the Expansion Space until 13 months after the Expansion Space Effective Date. The provision of Section 10 of the Lease shall apply with respect to the Expansion Space provided however that references therein to 2004 shall be deemed references to 2006 with respect to the Expansion Space. The base year for the Existing Space shall remain as is directed in the Office Lease and earlier amendment.

AS-IS, WHERE-IS

Lessee acknowledges Lessee has fully inspected the Expansion Space and, subject to the delivery requirement set forth above, accepts the Expansion Space in an as-is, where-is condition. Lessee shall not call upon Lessor to provide any modifications or improvements to the Expansion Space.

Lessor acknowledges and agrees that Lessee intends to use the North half of the tenth floor and Expansion Space for scientific laboratory space and that Lessee shall have the right to install certain of the Permitted Improvements on the adjacent roof of the 9th floor of the building. The last sentence of Section 47 of the Lease shall apply to the Permitted Improvements, and the references therein to “Tenant Improvements” shall also include the Permitted Improvements.
