until November 30, 1999, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the
provisions of this Sublease.
3. Delivery. The Subleased Premises shall be delivered to Subtenant on the
Sublease Term Commencement Date, broom-clean and free of all occupants but
otherwise "as-is, where-is and with all faults", without representation or
warranty, express or implied, and Subtenant hereby waives, disclaims and
renounces any representation or warranty. In the event construction of any

5. Additional Rent. Subtenant acknowledges that pursuant to Section 6 and 7

6. Use. The Subleased Premises shall be used for general office and research
and development uses and for uses ancillary thereto but for no other uses.
7. Prime Lease. Subtenant agrees that it will do nothing in, on or about the
Subleased Premises which would result in the breach by Sublandlord of its
undertakings and obligations under the Prime Lease. Except for the following
provisions, this Sublease shall be subject to and on all of the terms and
conditions as are contained in the Prime Lease and the provisions of the Prime
Lease are hereby incorporated into this Sublease as if Sublandlord were the
landlord thereunder and Subtenant the tenant thereunder:
A. The defined economic terms for "Base Rent," Term," Premises" and the
like are inapplicable;
B. Sections 6 and 7 of the Prime Lease (relating to additional rent) are
applicable, as modified by the provisions of Paragraph 5 of this Sublease;
C. Section 20 (relating to assignment and subletting) is inapplicable;
D. Section 24 of the Prime Lease (relating to brokers) is inapplicable;
and
E. Where appropriate, references to "Landlord" in the Prime Lease shall
be deemed to mean "Sublandlord" hereunder and references to "Tenant" in the
Prime Lease shall be deemed to mean "Subtenant" hereunder, it being
understood and agreed that Sublandlord will not be acting as, or assuming
any of the responsibilities of, Prime Landlord, and all references in the
Prime Lease to Landlord-provided services or Landlord insurance
requirements, and any other references which by their nature relate to the
owner or operator of the Building, rather than to a tenant of the Building
subleasing space to a subtenant, shall continue to be references to Prime
Landlord and not to Sublandlord.
8. Subtenant's Covenants. Subtenant covenants to Sublandlord to perform all
of the covenants and obligations to be performed by Sublandlord as Tenant
under the Prime Lease as the same relate to the Subleased Premises and to
comply with this Sublease and the applicable provisions of the Prime Lease, as
modified by this Sublease, in all respects (including, without limitation,
complying with all OSHA, environmental and other applicable laws, regulations
and standards). If Subtenant shall fail to make any payment or perform any act
required to be made or performed by Subtenant under the Prime Lease pursuant
to Subtenant's assumption of Sublandlord's obligations thereunder as they
relate to the Subleased Premises, and such default is not cured by Subtenant
by the first to occur of (i) one-half of the period specified in the Prime
Lease for curing such default, or (ii) five (5) days prior to the expiration
of such Prime Lease cure period, Sublandlord, without waiving or releasing any
obligation or default hereunder, may (but shall be under no obligation to)
make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of
Subtenant, and may take any and all such actions as Sublandlord in its sole
discretion deems necessary or appropriate to accomplish such cure. If
Sublandlord shall reasonably incur any expense in remedying such default,
Sublandlord shall be entitled to recover such sums upon demand from Subtenant
as Additional Rent under this Sublease.
9. Sublandlord's Covenants. Sublandlord covenants to Subtenant to perform
all of the terms and provisions required of it under the Prime Lease and to
promptly pay when due all rents due and accruing to Prime Landlord.
Sublandlord will use reasonable efforts to enforce on behalf of Subtenant
Sublandlord's rights
B-2
under the Prime Lease. Nothing contained in this Sublease shall be construed
as a guarantee by Sublandlord of any of the obligations, covenants,
warranties, agreements or undertakings of Prime Landlord in the Prime Lease,
nor as an undertaking by Sublandlord to Subtenant on the same or similar terms
as are contained in the Prime Lease.
10. Indemnification. Subtenant shall indemnify Sublandlord and hold
Sublandlord harmless from and against any and all claims, demands suits,
judgments, liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys
fees, arising out of or in connection with Subtenant's use and possession of

agents, contractors or employees to perform any covenant, term or condition of
this Sublease or of the Prime Lease to be performed by Subtenant hereunder.
Sublandlord shall indemnify Subtenant and hold Subtenant harmless from and
against any and all claims, demands, suits, judgments, liabilities, costs and

the Prime Lease to be performed by Sublandlord hereunder.
11. Assignment and Subletting. Subtenant shall not assign this Sublease in
whole or in part or sublet the Subleased Premises in whole or in part without

by Sublandlord in Sublandlord's sole and absolute discretion. No such sublease
or assignment shall be effective without the consent of Prime Landlord under
the Prime Lease. If, as to any sublease or assignment for which Sublandlord's
consent is necessary, Subtenant receives rent or other consideration in excess
of the Base Rent and Additional Rent payable under this Sublease, Subtenant
shall pay to Sublandlord all of such excess, after deducting Subtenant's
reasonable legal and brokerage expenses and fit--up expenses paid for by
Subtenant at the time of such subleasing or assignment. Amounts received by
Sublandlord under the immediately preceding sentence shall, after deducting
Sublandlord's reasonable legal expenses incurred in connection therewith, be
divided evenly between Prime Landlord and Sublandlord. If Sublandlord and
Prime Landlord consent to any such assignment or subletting, Subtenant shall
remain fully and primarily liable to Sublandlord, in all respects, under the
Sublease.
12. Security Deposit. Upon execution hereof, Subtenant has delivered to
Sublandlord the amount of $12,187.50 ("Subtenant's Security Deposit"), such
sum to be held by Sublandlord as security for the performance of Subtenant's
obligations under this Sublease. Upon the occurrence of any default by
Subtenant hereunder after expiration of all grace or cure periods, Subtenant
agrees that Sublandlord may apply all or any part of Subtenant's Security
Deposit, together with accrued interest, if any, to any obligation of
Subtenant hereunder. If all or any portion of Subtenant's Security Deposit is
applied by Sublandlord against any of Subtenant's obligations hereunder,
Subtenant shall promptly restore Subtenant's Security Deposit to its original
amount. Interest on Subtenant's Security Deposit shall in all instances be
retained by Sublandlord.
13. Brokers. Each of Sublandlord and Subtenant represents and warrants to
the other that it has not dealt with any broker in connection with this
Sublease other than Xxxxxxxx & Grew (Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xx.) and Xxxxxxx Realty
(Xxxxx Xxxxxxx) ("Brokers"), and each agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the
other harmless from and against any breach of said representation and
warranty. Sublandlord shall be responsible for the commission to be paid to
Brokers pursuant to a separate agreement.

light, plug and HVAC electricity) in the Subleased Premises, to be paid by
Subtenant to Sublandlord within ten (10) days after billing therefor.

for the second floor of the Building (which second floor is separately
metered) times 68.2%, such percentage being the portion of the second floor
that is included within the Subleased Premises.
15. Parking. Subtenant shall be entitled to use Subtenant's Proportionate
Share of the parking spaces allocated to Sublandlord under the Prime Lease, on
a non--exclusive basis. Sublandlord shall have no obligation to police the
