Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On May 7, 2007, we entered into a lease agreement with One Wheeler Road Associates with respect to approximately 60,177 square feet of office space located at 200 Wheeler Road, Burlington, Massachusetts.  The leased premises will serve as our corporate headquarters.

The initial term of the lease will commence with respect to 31,174 square feet of the leased premises on September 1, 2007, with respect to an additional 18,947 square feet on October 1, 2007 and with respect to an additional 10,056 square feet on January 1, 2008.  Our landlord will notify us by June 1, 2007 in the event the third phase of the leased premises will be available for occupancy on October 1, 2007 rather than January 1, 2008.  The initial term of the lease will expire seven years and four months following the term commencement date for the third phase of the leased premises.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the lease, we may extend the term of the lease for two successive terms of five years each.

Under the lease, we will have total non-cancelable lease obligations of approximately $11 million, and we will pay annual fixed rent as follows:

Year one:

 

$1,353,982.50

Year two:

 

$1,414,159.50

Year three:

 

$1,474,336.50

$1,594,690.50

Year six:

Additionally, we will pay additional rent for our proportionate share of operating expenses and taxes.
