TERMS OF THIS LEASE:

ARTICLE 1
Land and Term

          1.1. The Land. The Landlord, for and in consideration of the rent, terms, covenants and conditions herein reserved and contained on the part of Tenant to be paid, kept and performed, hereby leases to the Tenant, and the Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth, the parcel of land known as ▇▇▇ ▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ (“Lot 2”) h

          1.2. Condition of the Land. Tenant acknowledges that it has leased the Land and has agreed to construct the Initial Improvements (hereafter defined in Article 19) after having had a full and complete opportunity to conduct an examination of the Land, including, without limitation, subsurface conditions, the presence of any hazardous waste or materials located on the Land, the legal title to the Land and Laws affecting the same, as the Tenant deems necessary and/or desirable, and accepts the same in the same condition in which they or any part thereof now are, and assumes all risks in connection therewith, without any representation or warranty, express or implied, in fact or by law, on the part of Landlord, and without recourse to Landlord, Tenant hereby waiving any and all claims, now existing or hereafter arising, relating to the condition (known or unknown) of the Land, including without limitation those matters set forth on Schedule 1.2 hereof.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the Tenant shall have a right to terminate this Lease (“Tenant’s Termination Option”) at any time within six (6) months of the date hereof in the event that the Tenant determines that there are any Hazardous Materials located on the Land which prohibit or substantially interfere with the Tenant’s ability to construct the Initial Improvements (as defined in Article 20 hereof) and use the same for the Permitted Uses. In such event, the Tenant shall promptly notify the Landlord of the nature of the materials found and provide the

Landlord with copies of all reports related thereto received by Tenant. In no event shall the Landlord have any obligation under this Lease to remedy any such matter. In addition, in such event, the surrender of the Land by the Tenant shall be subject to the provisions of Article 16 hereof.

          1.3. Initial Term. TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Land for an initial term (the “Initial Term”) commencing on November 20, 2007 (the “Commencement Date”); and expiring at midnight on the day immediately prior to the thirtieth (30^th) anniversary date of the Commencement Date (the “Expiration Date”), unless this Lease shall sooner terminate as hereinafter provided. The Initial Term, as the same may be extended pursuant to Section 1.5 hereof, is called the “Term”.

          1.4. Delivery and Acceptance of Possession. The Landlord will deliver possession of the Land to the Tenant on the Commencement Date; the Tenant shall accept, subject to the terms hereof, possession of the Land on the Commencement Date.

          1.5. Extension of the Initial Term. Subject to the terms and provisions hereof and provided that there is no Event of Default existing at the time of the exercise of the applicable option term extension, the Tenant may extend the Initial Term of this Lease for two (2) additional terms of ten (10) years each (the “First Option Term” and the “Second Option Term”; the exercise of the Second Option Term being subject to the timely exercise of the First Option Term). The Tenant shall exercise such option by giving written notice to the Landlord on or before twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term for the exercise of the First Option Term and on or before twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the First Option Term for the exercise of the Second Option Term, of its intent to exercise its option to extend this Lease for the applicable Option Term. The timely giving of such written notice by Tenant shall automatically extend the Term of this Lease for the respective Option Term at the end of the Initial Term or the First Option Term, as the case may be.

          1.6. The Project/The Land. The term “Project” shall include the Land upon construction of the Project upon the Land.

ARTICLE 2
Permitted Uses; Compliance with Laws

          2.1. Permitted Uses; Continuous Operation upon Completion of Initial Improvements. The Land shall be used and occupied only for the construction and operation of a facility for the design, manufacture and assembly of products for renewable energy technologies and all related functions including research and development, warehousing and administration as well as associated parking, driveways, storage areas, loading bays and site utilities (the “Permitted Uses”) and for no other uses, subject to and in compliance with the Evergreen Solar Unified Permit dated August 14, 2007 as amended, and attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Unified Permit”). The Tenant acknowledges that the Landlord has entered into this Lease in reliance upon the Tenant’s covenant to use the Land for the Permitted Uses, and therefore expressly agrees that use of the Land, other than for Permitted Uses, without the express written consent of the Landlord, which may be withheld in the Landlord’s sole discretion, shall be a default hereunder with respect to which the Landlord, in addition to all of the rights available at law, shall have all rights available in equity, including the right to enforce this obligation by injunctive relief and specific performance.

          2.2. Compliance with Laws.

          (a) The Tenant shall, at all times during the Term, at the Tenant’s own cost and expense, perform and comply with, and shall cause all subtenants, licensees and operators to promptly comply with, all laws, rules, orders, ordinances, regulations, and requirements now or hereafter enacted or promulgated, of every Governmental Authority, including without limitation the Landlord acting in its capacity as a Governmental Authority, and of any agency thereof, relating to the Land and the Project, or the facilities or equipment therein, or the streets, sidewalks, curbs, and gutters on the Land and forming a part of the Land, or the appurtenances to the Land, or the franchises and privileges connected therewith, or any condition or use of the Land, including land-use, environmental and operational laws, rules, orders, ordinances, regulations and requirements (collectively, the “Laws”) whether or not such Laws so involved shall necessitate structural changes, improvements, interference with use and enjoyment of the Land or the Project, replacements, or repairs, extraordinary as well as ordinary, and the Tenant shall so perform and comply, whether or not such Laws shall now exist or shall hereafter be enacted or promulgated, and whether or not such Laws can be said to be within the present contemplation of the parties hereto. In addition, if prior to commencement of the Term, the Tenant or its agents or contractors goes onto the Land to perform any acts, such acts shall be performed in compliance with Laws and otherwise in compliance with the terms of the Non Exclusive License/Access Agreement to Enter onto Land for Limited Site Assessment and Pre-Development Activity Purposes dated as of June 15, 2007, as amended by First Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of July 10, 2007, Second Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of August 3, 2007, Third Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of August 16, 2007, Fourth Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of September 14, 2007, Fifth Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of September 28, 2007, Sixth Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of October 10, 2007, Seventh Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of October 17, 2007, Eighth Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of October 24, 2007, Ninth Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of October 31, 2007, Tenth Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of November 7, 2007, Eleventh Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of November 9, 2007 and Twelfth Amendment to License/Access Agreement dated as of November 14, 2007, as the same may be further amended, which Right of Entry Agreement shall terminate upon the Commencement Date of this Lease. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.2(b) below, no provision of this Lease shall be construed so as to permit the Tenant to postpone compliance with such Laws if any Governmental Authority shall threaten to carry out any work to comply with the same or to foreclose or sell any lien affecting all or any part of the Land. Tenant shall, in the event of any violation or any attempted violation of this Section by any subtenant, licensee or operator, take steps, immediately upon knowledge of such violation, as Tenant determines to be reasonably necessary to remedy or prevent the same as the case may be.

          (b) The Tenant shall have the right, provided it does so with due diligence and dispatch, to contest by appropriate legal proceedings, without cost or expense to the Landlord, the validity of any Laws of the nature hereinabove referred to in this Section 2.2. The Tenant may postpone compliance with such Laws until the final determination of such proceedings but only so long as such postponement of compliance will not subject the Landlord to any criminal prosecution or civil action or liability, or any costs or other liability or loss of any kind against the Landlord or the interest of the Landlord in the Land or the Improvements thereon which may arise by reason of postponement or failure of compliance with such Laws and only so long as such postponement of compliance will not have an adverse effect on the public health or safety as reasonably determined by the Landlord, and the Tenant shall indemnify and hold the Landlord harmless from all costs, claims, losses and liabilities in any way relating to the same, including “Legal Costs” as hereinafter defined in Section 22.17.

          (c) Tenant shall be responsible for securing all permits or licenses necessary for the construction and operation of the Initial Improvements as soon as such applications can appropriately be made if same cannot be secured prior to the commencement of construction of the Initial Improvements, and agrees to diligently and in good faith pursue such applications and to coordinate with Landlord in such pursuit. The cost of obtaining any such licenses and permits shall be borne solely by the Tenant.

          (d) Upon Substantial Completion of the Initial Improvements, the Tenant shall Use and Occupy (as hereinafter defined) the Project consistent with the normal hours of operation for the Permitted Uses, subject to the cessation of such uses as shall be reasonably required for (i) maintenance and repair or alterations to the Project and/or the Land; (ii) as shall be reasonably required in connection with restoration resulting from any Casualty or Taking of the Land or the Project; or (iii) a cessation of the Permitted Uses for more than a three (3) month consecutive period which conduct of the Permitted Uses is not restored within three (3) months of notice from the Landlord. “Use and Occupy” shall mean the conduct of the Tenant’s business for the Permitted Uses consistent with the days and hours of operation of similar businesses.

          (e) Tenant shall not, directly or indirectly, create or permit to be created or to remain, and shall discharge, any mechanic’s or other lien placed on the estate of Landlord in the ordinary course of business or with respect to any work performed by or on behalf of Tenant on or about the Land. Tenant shall pay promptly all persons furnishing labor or materials with respect to any work performed by Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to contest by appropriate legal proceedings diligently conducted in good faith, in the name of Tenant, or Landlord, or both without cost, expense, liability or damage to Landlord, the validity or application of any lien. Tenant and any Subtenants shall procure unconditional waivers and releases of lien claims (and/or notices of completion) in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord from all persons furnishing labor or materials with respect to any work performed on behalf of Tenant on the Land, at the time each progress payment and/or final payment is made. In the event any mechanic’s or other lien shall at any time be filed against the Land by reason of work, labor, services or materials performed or furnished, or alleged to be performed or furnished, to Tenant or to any one holding the Land through or under the Tenant, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days of notice of its recordation, cause the same to be discharged of record or bonded to the satisfaction of Landlord. If Tenant fails to cause such lien forthwith to be so discharged or bonded after being notified of the filing thereof, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may discharge the same by paying the amount claimed to be due or may cause the same to be bonded, and the amount so paid by Landlord, including reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by Landlord in either defending against such lien or procuring the discharge or bonding of such lien, together with interest thereon at the annual rate provided in Section 22.10 hereof, shall constitute Additional Rent and shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord on demand.

ARTICLE 3
Base Rent and Additional Rent

          3.1. Base Rent. The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, in accordance with the terms of this Lease, base rent (“Base Rent”) in the amount of One Dollar ($1.00) per annum for the period commencing on the Base Rent Commencement Date (defined to mean the date on which the Tenant commences occupancy of the Land for the conduct of its business following completion of the Initial Improvements) and continuing throughout the Term.

          3.2. Payment of Base Rent. Commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing for the remainder of the Term, Tenant shall pay the Base Rent to Landlord in advance in one annual installment on or before the Commencement Date and each successive anniversary of the Commencement Date, respectively.

          3.3. Method of Payment. All payments of Base Rent, Additional Rent (as hereinafter defined) (Base Rent and Additional Rent are together referred to herein as “Rent”) and other sums due Landlord shall be paid in current U.S. exchange by check drawn on a Boston Clearinghouse Bank without intervening endorsement at the Landlord’s address set forth at the beginning of this Lease or such other place as Landlord may from time to time direct by written notice (or if requested by Landlord, following reasonable advance notice accompanied by appropriate instructions, by electronic fund transfer) without notice, demand, set-off, counterclaim or other deduction. Rent not paid within five (5) days of when due shall bear interest at an annual rate as provided in Section 22.10 hereof. Tenant shall make ratable payments of Rent for any period of less than a month, as and when Rent is adjusted hereunder. Each payment of Additional Rent shall be paid by the Tenant directly to the party entitled to such payment.

          For purposes of this Lease, all monetary amounts to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and whether characterized as Base Rent or Additional Rent, shall be deemed to constitute Rent hereunder, it being the intention of the parties hereto that Landlord shall have the right to exercise all rights and remedies for the non-payment of Additional Rent when due that Landlord has hereunder for the non-payment of Base Rent.

          Without limiting the foregoing, except as and to the extent expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, Tenant’s obligation so to pay Rent shall not be discharged or otherwise affected by any applicable Law now or hereafter applicable to the Land, or any other restriction on or interference with the Permitted Uses, or any damage or destruction of the Land or any Improvements thereon, or any Taking, or any other interruption or occurrence whatsoever.

          3.4. Base Rent Net to Landlord. Base Rent shall be absolutely net to the Landlord so that this Lease shall yield to the Landlord the full amount of Base Rent without deduction and free of any charges, assessments, Impositions (as hereinafter defined in Article 4) or deductions of any kind charged, assessed, or imposed on or against the Land or its use, and without abatement, deduction or set-off by the Tenant, and the Landlord shall not be expected or required to pay any such charge, assessment or Imposition, or be under any obligation or liability hereunder except as herein expressly set forth, and all costs, expenses and obligations of any kind relating to the maintenance and operation of the Land, including all alterations, repairs, reconstruction and replacements as provided in this Lease, that may arise or become due during the Term hereof shall be paid by the Tenant, and the Landlord shall be indemnified and saved harmless by the Tenant from and against such costs, expenses and obligations.

          3.5. Additional Rent. From and after the Commencement Date, the Tenant shall also pay without abatement, deduction or set-off as additional rent (“Additional Rent”), all sums, Impositions (as defined in subsection 4.1), costs, expenses and other payments which the Tenant in any of the provisions of this Lease assumes or agrees to pay and in the event of any non-payment of Additional Rent, the Landlord shall have (in addition to all other rights and remedies) all the rights and remedies provided for herein or by law or in equity. Additional Rent for any partial month at the beginning or

end of the Term shall be prorated and Tenant shall only be liable for the portion of such Additional Rent attributable to the Term hereunder.

          3.6. No Release of Obligations. (a) No happening, event, occurrence or situation during the Term hereof, whether foreseen or unforeseen, and however extraordinary (including without limitation, the Tenant’s failure, refusal or inability for any reason to construct the Initial Improvements) shall permit the Tenant to quit or surrender the Land or this Lease or shall relieve the Tenant from its liability to pay the Base Rent and Additional Rent and other charges due under this Lease, or shall entitle the Tenant to any abatement or refund of any Base Rent, or shall relieve the Tenant from any of its other obligations under this Lease, and (b) the Tenant waives any rights now or hereafter conferred upon, to the extent permitted by law, to quit or surrender the Land leased hereunder, or any part thereof, or to any abatement, set-off, reduction or suspension of Base Rent or Additional Rent on account of any such act, happening, occurrence or situation, except as otherwise provided herein.

ARTICLE 4
Real Estate Taxes

          4.1. Impositions. Tenant covenants to pay throughout the Term, directly to the appropriate Governmental Authority or to the appropriate party, before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto for the nonpayment thereof, any and all taxes and amounts payable under a certain Tax Increment Financing Agreement by and between the Landlord and the Tenant dated November 20, 2007 (the “TIF Agreement”), and payments in lieu of taxes required to be paid under any agreement with the Landlord, assessments (including, but not limited to, all assessments for public improvements or benefits, payable during the term of this Lease), water, sewer and other rents, rates and charges, charges for public utilities, excises, levies, licenses and permit and inspection fees and other charges (imposed by a Governmental Authority or otherwise), general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, of any kind and nature whatsoever, which at any time during the Term are assessed, levied, confirmed, imposed upon, or grow or become due or payable out of or in respect of, or become a lien on (a) the Land, or (b) any payments reserved or payable hereunder or any other sums payable by the Tenant hereunder, or (c) this Lease or the leasehold estate hereby created, or which arise in respect of the operation, possession, occupancy or use of the Land (all of which taxes, payments in lieu of taxes, assessments, charges, interest, penalties or like charges are sometimes hereinafter referred to collectively as “Impositions” and individually as an “Imposition”); provided, however, that:

          (i) If, by law, any Imposition is or may be payable, at the option of the taxpayer, in installments, the Tenant may pay such Imposition in installments (with any accrued interest due and payable on the unpaid balance of the Imposition) and shall pay each such installment as the same respectively becomes due and before any fine, penalty, further interest or cost may be added thereto.

          (ii) Impositions, whether or not a lien upon the Land, shall be apportioned between the Landlord and the Tenant at the beginning and at the end of the Term, and the Tenant shall pay only such Impositions which are assessed against the Land with respect to any tax year which falls within the Term. The Tenant hereby waives any claim that it is or may become exempt from obligations relating to Impositions based upon the Landlord’s status as a Governmental Authority.

          4.2. Impositions Assessed Against the Landlord. Nothing herein contained shall require the Tenant to pay income taxes assessed against the Landlord, or any capital levy, corporation franchise, excess profits, estate, succession, inheritance or transfer taxes of the Landlord, unless such taxes are imposed or levied upon or assessed as a total or partial substitute for, or in lieu of, any other Imposition required to be paid by the Tenant pursuant to this Article 4, in which event, the same shall be deemed Impositions and shall be paid by the Tenant; provided, however, that if at any time during the Term, the method of taxation shall be such that there shall be levied, assessed or imposed on the Landlord a capital levy, gross receipts or other tax on the Rent received hereunder and/or a franchise tax or an assessment, levy or charge measured by or based, in whole or in part, upon such Rent, upon the Land or the Project (including but not limited to the acquisition, leasing, use or value thereof), and/or measured in whole or in part by the Landlord’s income from, or use of, the Land, then all such taxes, assessments, levies and charges, or the part thereof so measured or based, shall be deemed to be included within the term “Impositions” for the purposes hereof and the Tenant shall pay and discharge the same as herein provided in respect of the payment of Impositions.

          4.3. Tenant’s Failure to Promptly Pay Impositions. The Tenant shall pay all Impositions before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto for the nonpayment thereof, and, with respect to real estate taxes only, shall furnish to the Landlord, within thirty (30) days of a written request by the Landlord, with receipts or other satisfactory proof evidencing payment of such real estate taxes.

          4.4. Validity of Impositions. The Tenant shall have the right to contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Imposition by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith, but only after payment of such Imposition, unless such payment would operate as a bar to such contest or interfere materially with the prosecution thereof, in which event, notwithstanding the provisions hereof, the Tenant may postpone or defer payment of such Imposition if, but only if (i) neither the Land or Project nor any part thereof would by reason of such postponement or deferment be in danger of being forfeited or lost, and (ii) the Tenant shall have provided the Landlord with evidence that the amount so contested and unpaid, together with all interest and penalties in connection therewith and all charges that may or might be assessed against or become a charge on the Land or the Project or any part thereof, in such proceedings has been set aside in a separate bank account and earmarked for such purposes upon such arrangements as are reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord. The Tenant will save the Landlord harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, claims, judgments, decrees and costs, including Legal Costs, in connection with any such contest and will, promptly after the final settlement, compromise or determination of such contest, fully apply and discharge the amounts which shall be levied, assessed, be payable thereon or in connection therewith, together with all penalties, fines, interest, costs and expenses thereof or in connection therewith.

          8.5. Reservation of Rights Under the Federal Facilities Agreement.

          By accepting this Deed, the Grantee acknowledges that the Grantor has provided the Grantee with a copy of the Federal Facilities Agreement (the “FFA”) between the Grantor and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”), dated May 11, 1991, and the modification thereto, dated March 26, 1996. The Grantor shall provide the Grantee with a copy of any future amendments to the FFA.

A. The Grantor, EPA, and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and their agents, employees, and contractors, shall have access to and over the Property as may be necessary for any investigation, response, or corrective action pursuant to CERCLA or the FFA found to be necessary before or after the date of this Deed on the Property or on other property comprising the Fort Devens National Priorities List (the “NPL”) site.

B. In exercising the rights hereunder, the United States and the Commonwealth shall give the Grantee or its successors or assigns reasonable notice of actions taken on the Property under the FFA and shall, to the extent reasonable, consistent with the FFA, and at no additional cost to the United States, endeavor to minimize the disruption to the Grantee’s, its successors’, or assigns’ use of the Property.

D. Prior to the determination by the United States that all remedial action is complete under CERCLA and the FFA for the Fort Devens NPL site, (i) the Grantee, its successors and assigns, shall not undertake activities on the Property that would interfere with or impede the completion of the CERCLA clean-up at the Fort Devens NPL site and shall give prior written notice to the Grantor, EPA, and the Commonwealth of any construction, alterations, or similar work on the Property that may interfere with or impede said clean-up; and (ii) the Grantee shall comply with any institutional controls established or put in place by the Grantor relating to the Property which are required by any record of decision (“ROD”) or amendments thereto, related to the Property, which ROD was approved by the Grantor and EPA and issued by the Grantor pursuant to CERCLA or the FFA before or after the date of this Deed. Additionally, the Grantee shall ensure that any leasehold it grants in the Property or any fee interest conveyance of any portion for the Property provides for legally-binding compliance with the institutional controls required by any such ROD.

E. For any portion of the Property subject to a response action under CERCLA or the FFA, prior to the conveyance of an interest therein, the Grantee shall include in all conveyances provisions for allowing the continued operation of any monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇, treatment facilities, or other response activities undertaken pursuant to CERCLA or the FFA on said portion of the Property and shall notify the Grantor, EPA, and the Commonwealth by certified mail, at least sixty (60) days prior to any such conveyance of an interest in said property, which notice shall include a description of said provisions allowing for the continued operation of any monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇, treatment facilities, or other response activities undertaken pursuant to CERCLA or the FFA.

F. Prior to the determination by the United States that all remedial action under CERCLA and the FFA is complete under CERCLA and the FFA for the Fort Devens NPL site, the Grantee and all subsequent transferees of an interest in any portion of the Property will provide copies of the instrument evidencing such transaction to the Commonwealth, the EPA, and the Grantor by certified mail, within fourteen (14) days after the effective date of such transaction.

G. The Grantee and all subsequent transferees shall include the provisions of this Section VIII in all subsequent leases, transfer, or conveyance documents relating to the Property or any portion thereof that are entered into prior to a determination by the United States that all remedial action is complete at the Fort Devens NPL site.”

     8.6. Monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇ and Access Thereto. In addition to the Tenant’s obligations under Section 8.5, Landlord hereby notifies Tenant that there are two monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇, 57M-96-09X and G3M-93-09X, located on the Land and shown on a sketch plan prepared by the Landlord and attached hereto as Exhibit D. The Tenant acknowledges its obligations pursuant to Section 8.5 hereof and the Army Deed with respect to the continued operations of such monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇, treatment facilities or other response activities undertaken pursuant to CERCLA or the FFA on any portion of the Land, including a right of access to the Landlord and the Army, and shall notify the Army, the Environmental

Protection Agency and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts by certified mail sixty (60) days prior to any conveyance of an interest in the Land, which notice shall include a description of said provisions allowing for the continued operation of any monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇, treatment facilities or other response actions undertaken pursuant to CERCLA or the FFA.

          8.7. Landlord to Exercise Its Rights under the Army Deed. The Landlord shall take all actions reasonably necessary to enforce the obligations of the Grantor under the Army Deed related to Hazardous Materials for which the Landlord is indemnified under the Army Deed.

          8.8. Receipt of Documents. The Tenant acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Army Deed, the FFA and a copy of the Administrative Consent Order and Covenant Not to ▇▇▇, ACO-CE-96-3001, and is familiar with the content of said documents.

          (a) Each Leasehold Mortgage shall convey no interest in any real property other than the Tenant’s interest in this Lease and the Improvements constructed on the Land during the Term of this Lease.

          (c) There may be an unlimited number of Leasehold Mortgages of this Lease and the leasehold estate created hereby at any one time provided however that, notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, the Landlord shall not be required to give notices, statements or other written communications to any leasehold mortgagee other than the Leasehold Mortgagee (defined below) holding the first priority leasehold mortgage on the Tenant’s leasehold interest hereunder.

          (d) The holder of each leasehold mortgage must agree in writing upon taking possession of the Land to cure all Events of Default of which it has notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.4 hereof, and to otherwise comply with any obligations imposed upon Leasehold Mortgagees under Section 9.4.

No Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the rights or benefits mentioned in this Article, nor shall the obligations of the Landlord be binding upon the Leasehold Mortgagee, unless and until a notice of such Leasehold Mortgage and of each assignment thereof, containing the full name and address of such Leasehold Mortgagee, the term of such mortgage, and a representation from the Tenant and the Leasehold Mortgagee that the Leasehold Mortgage is in compliance with the provisions of Section 9.1 (a) — (e), shall have been delivered to and received by the Landlord, notwithstanding any other form of notice, actual or constructive.

          9.3. Status Report. The Landlord agrees at any time and from time to time, upon not less than twenty (20) days prior written request by a Leasehold Mortgagee or proposed Leasehold Mortgagee, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to such Leasehold Mortgagee or proposed Leasehold Mortgagee a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified, and stating the modifications), that either no Event of Default exists and no event has occurred which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an Event of Default hereunder or specifying the Event of Default which has occurred, the dates to which the Base Rent and other charges have been paid in advance, if any, and such additional items as a Leasehold Mortgagee or proposed Leasehold Mortgagee may reasonably require, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant to this Section 9.3 may be relied upon by any Leasehold Mortgagee or proposed Leasehold Mortgagee or assignee of any Leasehold Mortgagee. In connection therewith, the Landlord may require that the Tenant provide to the Landlord a certification as to the existence of any Event of Default or such other information to be included in the Landlord’s statement hereunder, and if the Landlord so requires, then the Landlord may rely on such certification in its statement and the Landlord shall not be liable for or bound by any material inaccuracy or omission contained in the Landlord’s statement to the extent of any material inaccuracy or omission contained in the Tenant’s certification to the Landlord.

          9.4. Protection of Leasehold Mortgagee. If the Tenant, or the Tenant’s successors or assigns, shall mortgage this Lease in compliance with the provisions of this Article 9, then so long as any such Leasehold Mortgage shall remain unsatisfied of record, the following provisions shall apply:

          (a) Notice of Default. The Landlord, upon serving upon the Tenant any notice of default pursuant to the provisions of Article 17 hereof, or any other notice under the provisions of or with respect to this Lease, shall also serve a copy of such notice upon the Leasehold Mortgagees of which the Landlord has notice pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof holding the first priority mortgage on the leasehold estate hereunder, in accordance with Section 22.14 hereof.

          (b) Right to Remedy Defaults.

In addition, any Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right to remedy such default, or cause the same to be remedied, within ten (10) days of the expiration of the Tenant’s cure period under Section 17.1 if such default is a monetary default, and within thirty (30) days of the expiration of the Tenant’s cure period under Section 17.1 if such default is a non-monetary default.

          (c) Leasehold Mortgagee’s Right to Prevent Termination/Exercise Purchase Option. Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Landlord shall take no action to effect a termination of this Lease without first giving to the Leasehold Mortgagee written notice thereof and a reasonable time thereafter, such reasonable time to be determined by the Landlord in its reasonable discretion, and in any event such reasonable time not to exceed six (6) months (such reasonable time being referred to in this Lease as the “Forbearance Period”), within which either (i) to obtain possession of the Premises (including possession by a receiver) or (ii) to institute, prosecute and complete foreclosure proceedings or otherwise acquire the Tenant’s interest under this Lease with diligence and, subject to the Leasehold Mortgagee’s obligation to perform all obligations

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, a Leasehold Mortgagee shall be required to comply with the obligations of the Tenant to maintain the Premises in compliance with Laws and to make and keep the Premises safe and buildable, and with respect to the Leasehold Mortgagee’s obligation to make and keep the Premises safe and buildable, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall be required to take all reasonable measures to make the Premises safe within sixty (60) days of receipt of notice from the Landlord that an Event of Default has occurred.

In the event that said Leasehold Mortgagee commences such exercise but fails to acquire the Land on the scheduled closing date established under the Purchase Agreement and such failure is not solely and directly due to the inability of the Landlord to close due to a default or otherwise, then the provision of Article 10.2.1(c) hereof shall be applicable and annual Base Rent hereunder shall increase to fair market rent for the Property, determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Schedule 9.4(d) hereof, taking into consideration the Permitted Uses as such Permitted Uses may be modified as provided below, and effective as of the scheduled closing date under the Purchase Agreement. Furthermore, in such event, neither said Leasehold Mortgagee nor any assignee of said Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the benefit of any First Option Term nor Second Option Term if not previously exercised by the Tenant pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.5 hereof. However, in such event, said Leasehold Mortgagee may seek the consent of the Landlord, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to change the use of the Land from the Permitted Uses under Section 2.1 to another use, so long as such other use is in compliance with Laws.

          (e) Insurance. The Landlord agrees that the name of any Leasehold Mortgagee may be added to the “Loss Payable Endorsement” of any and all insurance policies required to be carried by the Tenant hereunder.

          (f) Benefit of Provisions. The provisions of this Article 9 are for the benefit of, and are to be enforceable by, each Leasehold Mortgagee to the extent more than one Leasehold Mortgage is permitted to be granted hereunder. If there is more than one Leasehold Mortgagee, the senior Leasehold Mortgagee shall be entitled to exercise the remedies of a Leasehold Mortgagee which are by their nature impossible or impractical to be exercised by more than one Leasehold Mortgagee (collectively, “Exclusive Leasehold Mortgagee Rights”). Unless a Leasehold Mortgagee provides the Landlord with written evidence to the contrary in the form of a subordination or intercreditor agreement executed by the relevant Leasehold Mortgagees, the Leasehold Mortgagee who is the first Leasehold Mortgagee of record shall be deemed to be the senior Leasehold Mortgagee and the holder of the Exclusive Leasehold Mortgagee Rights. The Landlord may rely on a current certification or commitment of the title insurance company providing title insurance to the Tenant (or if none, a title insurance company chosen by the Landlord) with respect to the Premises as to which Leasehold Mortgagee is the first Leasehold Mortgagee of record. All reasonable costs, including Legal Costs, incurred by the Landlord in connection with such certification or commitment shall be paid by the Tenant as Additional Rent. To the extent that there is more than one Leasehold Mortgagee at any time, all references to “Leasehold Mortgagee” contained in this Lease shall be read in the context of and subject to the terms of this Section 9.4(f).

          (g) Modification. No agreement between the Landlord and the Tenant modifying, canceling or surrendering this Lease shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Leasehold Mortgagee.

          (h) Merger. No union of the interests of the Landlord and the Tenant herein shall result in a merger of this Lease with the fee interest.

          9.5. Lending Institutions. A “Lending Institution” shall mean a national bank, commercial bank, savings bank, savings and loan institution, trust or insurance company, real estate investment trust, pension, welfare or retirement fund, conduit lender or investment banking firm or any combination of the foregoing, or any other institutional, or the like, lender who traditionally makes loans secured by real estate interests and is authorized to lend money in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts under Laws, or any other lender approved by the Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.

ARTICLE 10
Assignment and Subletting

          10.1. Subletting. The Tenant may not sublet all or any portion of the Land without the prior written consent of the Landlord which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If consent to a subletting is granted, such subletting conditions would include at a minimum, the proviso that (i) such subletting complies with all of the provisions of this Article 10; (ii) the sublease with the permitted subtenant is in all respects consistent with, and in accordance with, this Lease, including without limitation Section 2.1 hereof and (iii) the following information and documentation is provided to the Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such subletting:

	A.		The name of the proposed subtenant and a copy of the proposed form of sublease (with a duly executed copy of such sublease to promptly follow upon execution thereof);
	B.		Evidence that the proposed subtenant’s business is in compliance with the Permitted Uses of the Land;
	C.		Certificates of Good Standing (or certificates of qualification to do business in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts if such subtenant is a foreign entity) of the proposed subtenant issued by the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts;

          In the event of any subletting of all or any portion of the Premises, it shall be a condition of any such sublease that the subtenant agree in writing with the Landlord that the subtenant will not breach, nor cause the Tenant to breach, any of the provisions of this Lease. Furthermore, any such subletting shall not relieve the Tenant of its obligations under this Lease. Finally, it shall be a condition of any such subletting that: (i) each sublease shall be subject and subordinate to this Lease and the rights of the Landlord hereunder; (ii) any violation of any provision of this Lease, whether by act or omission by any subtenant shall be deemed a violation of such provision by the Tenant, it being the intention and meaning of the parties that the Tenant shall assume and be liable to the Landlord for any and all acts and omissions of any and all subtenants with respect to this Lease, provided, that this Lease shall not be terminated due to default of any subtenant so long as such default does not constitute or result in an Event of Default under this Lease; (iii) each such sublease shall provide that in the event this Lease is terminated prior to

the expiration of such sublease, then at Landlord’s option, the subtenant thereunder will either attorn to the Landlord and waive any right the subtenant may have to terminate the sublease, or surrender possession thereunder as a result of the termination of this Lease, and the sublease shall terminate simultaneously with the termination or expiration of the Lease; and (iv) subject to the rights of any Leasehold Mortgagee hereunder, each sublease shall provide that in the event the subtenant receives a written notice from the Landlord stating that an Event of Default has occurred under this Lease, the subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the Landlord or as the Landlord may direct. No sublease shall affect the Permitted Uses. Any attempted sublease in violation of the terms of this Article 10 shall be void. Tenant shall not directly or indirectly collect or accept any payment of rent under any sublease for any period in excess of thirty (30) days in advance.

          10.2. Assignment.

          (a) In the event that the Tenant obtains Landlord’s consent, it shall be a condition of any such assignment that: (i) each assignment shall be subject and subordinate to this Lease and the rights of the Landlord hereunder; and (ii) any violation of any provision of this Lease, whether by act or omission by any assignee shall be deemed a violation of such provision by the Tenant, it being the intention and meaning of the parties that the Tenant shall be liable to the Landlord jointly with such assignee for any and all acts and omissions of any and all assignees with respect to this Lease.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Tenant may assign, transfer or otherwise alienate its entire interest under this Lease to an entity which is not a Prohibited Person (as defined in a certain Project Grant Agreement between the Landlord and the Tenant dated as of November 20, 2007, attached to this Lease as Exhibit E (the “Project Grant Agreement”)) and (a) is controlling, controlled by, or under common control with Tenant, (b) is the assignee under a so-called sale/leaseback transaction pursuant to which the assignee shall assume all obligations of Tenant hereunder and will remain jointly and severally liable with the assignee for Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and whereby Tenant shall be the sole tenant under this Lease, or (c) acquires, or to which there is transferred, whether by merger or otherwise, substantially all of the assets of Tenant or to an entity from which, whether by merger or otherwise, Tenant acquires all or substantially all of the assets of such entity (each, a “Merger or Acquisition Event”); provided, further, that promptly after such a Merger or Acquisition Event, Tenant shall notify Landlord of such event and provide Landlord with sufficient financial information to enable Landlord to determine that the new entity has the financial capability to fulfill Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Within ten (10) days of such assignment under this Section 10.2.2(c), the Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an assignment and assumption agreement whereby the successor tenant assume all obligations of Tenant under this Lease, and agrees with Landlord to be bound by all of the terms and provisions hereof.

          (c) In the event that the Leasehold Mortgagee holding the Exclusive Leasehold Mortgagee Rights (as defined in Section 9.4(f)) seeks to exercise its available remedies under its leasehold mortgage, then, as provided in Section 9.4(d) hereof, the commencement of such exercise shall be an automatic exercise by said Leasehold Mortgagee of the Tenant’s option to purchase the Land, and shall be subject to

the provisions of Article 23 hereof, including without limitation the execution and delivery of the Purchase and Sale Agreement as contemplated by Section 23.1. However, in the event that said Leasehold Mortgagee commences such exercise, including without limitation the execution and delivery of the Purchase and Sale Agreement as contemplated by Section 23.1 hereof, but fails to acquire the Property on the closing date established under the Purchase and Sale Agreement, and such failure is soley and directly a result of a default by the Seller beyond any applicable notice and cure period, then annual Base Rent hereunder shall automatically increase to fair market rent for the Land, determined as provided in Schedule 9.4(d) hereof, and in such instance the subsequent assignment to a third party by said Leasehold Mortgagee hereunder shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld as opposed to a sole discretion standard.

          10.3. Expenses of Landlord. Tenant shall pay all expenses incurred by the Landlord, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, in connection with any request by the Tenant for consent by the Landlord to subletting or assignment of this Lease.

ARTICLE 11

          12.1.1 Total Taking.

          If title to the whole or substantially all of the Land and Improvements shall be taken by Condemnation, this Lease shall terminate and expire on the date of such Condemnation and the

Additional Rent reserved shall be apportioned and paid to the date of such Condemnation, except that, if not reduced or eliminated due to the Tenant seeking a real estate tax abatement proceeding in accordance with applicable Laws, the Tenant shall pay the Impositions due as of the date of the Condemnation, including without limitation any amounts due under the TIF Agreement up to the date of such Condemnation. There shall be no adjustment or reapportionment of Base Rent.

          12.1.2 Partial Taking.

          If title to less than the whole or substantially all of the Land and Improvements shall be taken by Condemnation and the portion of the Land and Improvements remaining is not of a size to permit the Premises to be used for the Permitted Uses with the amount of the total compensation, sums or anything of value awarded, paid or received in a total or a partial Condemnation Award (an “Award”) available therefor so as to constitute the same economic value and usefulness as immediately before such Condemnation, the Tenant or the Landlord may, at their option, terminate this Lease within ninety (90) days after such condemnation by serving upon the other party at any time within said ninety (90) day period, a thirty (30) day written notice of such party’s election to so terminate accompanied by a certificate of such party showing, in detail, that the remaining portion of the Land and Improvements are not of a size to permit the Land and Improvements to be used for the Permitted Uses so as to constitute the same usefulness as immediately before such Condemnation. Upon such termination, the Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Base Rent under this Lease.

          (b) Second, to the Tenant in the amount of its interest in the Improvements, less any amounts in respect thereof distributed to any leasehold mortgagee under (a) above;

          (c) Third, to the Landlord and the Tenant in the proportion which the value of Landlord’s reversionary interest in the Land, and the value of the Tenant’s leasehold estate hereunder, respectively, bears to the total of the two, until an amount equal to the value of the Tenant’s leasehold estate less the amount distributed to its Leasehold Mortgagee under clause (a) above has been distributed to the Tenant; and

          (d) the balance (if any) of the Award to the Landlord.

          Any payments to be made to the Tenant under the provisions of this Section 12.1.3 are subject to the condition that no Event of Default, and no condition or circumstance which with the giving of notice or the passage of time would constitute an Event of Default hereunder, exists on the Termination Date and if any such Event of Default or condition or circumstance should then exist, the amount of said payments due to the Tenant shall be reduced by such amount as may be reasonably required to remedy any such Event of Default or condition or circumstance.

          12.2. Partial Taking — Lease Continues. In the event of a Condemnation that does not result in a termination of this Lease, the Term of this Lease shall not be reduced or affected in any way. The Tenant shall, after any such Partial Taking, and at its sole cost and expense, repair or cause the repair of any damage caused by such Partial Taking in conformity with the requirements contained or referred to in Section 11 hereof as to restoration after a casualty, or at Tenant’s option make the Land safe and buildable, so that the Land will be in compliance with the standards contained in said Section 11. (Such repairs or restoration, including any changes and alterations and including temporary repairs, are referred to in this Section 12.2 as the “Work”.) Upon completion of such restoration, any remaining portion of the Award will be paid (i) first, to the Landlord to the extent of the value of the Landlord’s interest in the Award (based upon the value of the Landlord’s reversionary interest in the Land as encumbered by this Lease) and (ii) thereafter to the Tenant. If the cost of the Work exceeds the amount of the Award, the deficiency shall be paid by the Tenant.

          12.3. Intentionally Deleted.

          12.4. Restoration of the Land. In the event of a Condemnation which does not result in a termination of this Lease and this Lease is otherwise in full force and effect, the Tenant, at its sole cost and expense shall proceed with reasonable diligence and continuously to repair and restore the remaining part of the Premises to a condition sufficient for the Permitted Uses and so as to be in compliance with all Laws.

In the event of any such Condemnation for a temporary use or occupancy, the Tenant shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any Award whether such Award is paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, unless such period of temporary use or occupancy shall extend beyond the Term in which case such Award, after payment to the Landlord therefrom of the estimated cost of restoration of the Land to the extent that the Award is intended to compensate for damages to the Land (unless the Tenant restores the Land in which event such portion of the Award attributable to the cost of restoration shall be the property of the Tenant), shall be apportioned by the Landlord and the Tenant as of the termination date in the same ratio that the part of the entire period for which such compensation is made falling before the termination date and that part falling after, bear to such entire period.

          12.9. Rights of Participation. Each party shall have the right, at its own expense, to appear in a Condemnation proceeding and to participate in any and all hearings and trials.

All waivers shall be in writing, contain the word “waiver”, and specifically identify the obligation or other provision of this Lease being waived in order to be effective.

          22.9. Landlord’s Right of Self-Help.

          23.4. Negative Covenant in Deed to the Land.
