Item  1.     Business
 
General
 
Lionbridge is a leading provider of solutions for worldwide deployment of technology and content, serving global businesses in the technology, financial services, manufacturing and life sciences industries. Lionbridge’s suite of services includes: globalization and localization solutions, testing services and application development. Lionbridge serves as an outsourced partner throughout a client’s product development and support lifecycle and offers the following key benefits to its clients:
 
Integrated Full-Service Offering.    Lionbridge offers a full suite of services including product localization and content globalization, comprehensive and product certification testing, and application development and maintenance. Lionbridge’s enterprise-wide globalization services address the full range of needs of its clients’ customers, suppliers, and employees. Lionbridge’s comprehensive solutions enable its clients to reduce time to market and achieve superior product quality, while its product certification testing confirms that independent software vendors’ applications properly interact with those of the hardware and equipment vendor. Lionbridge’s application development and maintenance services provide new software development, maintenance, and user support. Thus, Lionbridge’s end-to-end service offering allows its clients to work with a single outsource provider, which results in time and cost savings benefits to its clients.
 
Established Global Presence.    Lionbridge operates over 20 localization and testing centers in eleven countries throughout the world. Lionbridge believes this strong geographic coverage provides a network to meet all the globalization needs of its clients. In addition to over 750 consulting and service professionals, Lionbridge maintains a global network of approximately 2,500 third-party translators. This global network of employees and third-party translators provides Lionbridge with local-country linguistic and cultural expertise in many languages and cultures and enables it to handle larger, more complex engagements.
 
Proven Methodologies.    The cornerstone of Lionbridge’s approach to globalization is its Rapid Globalization Methodology (“RGM”) which provides a systematic approach to globalization projects, ensuring consistency across all global production sites. RGM not only increases productivity, but also provides a baseline for continuous process improvement and the transfer of knowledge and expertise within the Lionbridge organization.
 
Flexible and Enterprise-scale Globalization Technologies.    Lionbridge’s globalization solutions are built on the Lionbridge Globalization Platform (“LGP”). The LGP is an array of configurable technologies that augments the methodology and expertise employed by Lionbridge’s content globalization teams. The LGP enables Lionbridge to reduce globalization costs, speed time to market and enhance the quality of multilingual content.
 
Industry Expertise.    Lionbridge has developed significant globalization expertise in targeted industries by offering services that accommodate the various needs of organizations in these industries. Lionbridge currently

organizes its delivery of services into four primary industry groups: technology, life sciences, financial services and  manufacturing. Lionbridge leverages its expertise in these industries across the entire company to provide clients the full value of its expertise.
 
Lionbridge, through its predecessor and current wholly owned subsidiary, Lionbridge America, Inc., was incorporated in Delaware in September 1996. Its principal executive offices are located at 950 Winter Street, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451, its telephone number is (781) 434-6000, and its Web site is www.lionbridge.com.
 
Lionbridge Services
 
Lionbridge provides a full suite of services for worldwide deployment of technology and content, serving global businesses in the technology, financial services, manufacturing, and life sciences industries. Lionbridge’s services offering includes the following:
 
Globalization and Localization Solutions.    Lionbridge provides the following globalization and localization solutions:
 
 
·
 
Product Localization.    Lionbridge creates foreign language versions of its clients’ products, content, and software applications, including the user interface, on-line help systems, documentation, technical support databases, training materials, and sales and marketing information. Lionbridge provides its clients with re-engineered, fully tested, and culturally adapted multilingual versions of their products and applications. Lionbridge uses a combination of internal and external translators, as well as translation software, for its localization services. Lionbridge has approximately 125 translators and editors who are employees and established relationships with a global network of approximately 2,500 third-party, local-country translators, including independent agencies and freelance professionals. Lionbridge’s Rapid Globalization Methodology standardizes processes, defines key activities, and specifies goals for each localization project enabling it to deliver high quality, localized versions of products and related materials across multiple languages and cultures in a timely fashion.
 
 
·
 
Content Globalization.    Lionbridge provides multilingual content globalization services which consist of the continuous updating and other ongoing management of its clients’ localized software products and multilingual Web content. By utilizing its proprietary technology and integrating its processes and infrastructure with its clients’ content management processes and technology, Lionbridge is able to manage the localization process in a semi-automated manner for large volumes of content. Examples of client content requiring these types of globalization services include: a continuously updating on-line support site maintained in multiple languages; a learning program which is constantly updated to reflect the latest products and terminology; and a marketing product database which is constantly evolving.
 
The cornerstone of Lionbridge’s delivery of its globalization and localization solutions is its Rapid Globalization Methodology. RGM is a proven, repeatable process designed to ensure consistency around the world. A roadmap for effective globalization, RGM offers a systematic approach to adapting products and content to a target locale’s technical, linguistic and cultural expectations.
 
Lionbridge globalization and localization services are built on the Localization Globalization Platform, an array of technologies that augments the methodology and expertise employed by Lionbridge’s content globalization teams. LGP consists of four configurable elements: LionView, a collaboration portal for all project participants; Lion Access, a repository connector which selects, extracts and routes content for localization; LionPath, a workflow automation tool; and LionLinguist, language management tools which leverage previously translated segments across multiple file formats. LGP seamlessly integrates with Lionbridge’s clients’ production environments.

Testing Services.    Testing services provided by Lionbridge under its VeriTest brand include the following:
 
 
·
 
Comprehensive Testing.    Lionbridge provides a variety of testing services to its clients, ensuring the quality of its clients’ software applications, hardware products and Web sites. These services include:
 
 
·
 
functionality and compatibility testing—to determine the extent to which the product functions as intended as well as whether it works as expected on the range of components and systems available to its end users,
 
 
·
 
globalization testing—to determine whether the product is ready for global release by ensuring that locale-dependent functions work as intended within the local hardware and software environment of the end user,
 
 
·
 
Web application testing—to identify any performance and user interface defects in a clients’ Web application, and
 
 
·
 
accessibility testing—to determine whether the product is accessible to users who have disabilities.
 
 
·
 
Product Certification.    Lionbridge provides product certification programs for many leading software, hardware and telecommunications companies, including Microsoft, AT&T, BMC Software, IBM, Novell, and Alcatel. These sponsoring companies retain Lionbridge to develop and administer test criteria that independent software vendors must satisfy before they may display the sponsor’s logo (such as Microsoft’s Certified for Windows® 2000) on their products. These certification tests confirm that independent software vendors’ applications properly interact with those of the platform vendor. The logo is an indication to consumers of software quality and compatibility. Other Lionbridge logo programs include BMC Software Certified, AT&T Wireless Logo Certification Program, Novell “YES, Tested and Approved” Certification Program, IBM Server Proven Program, and Alcatel OmniPCX Office Certification.
 
Application Development.    Lionbridge provides application outsourcing services for enterprise customers including new software development, maintenance, and user support. Through its ChinaConnect brand, Lionbridge provides Web integration and software application development for wireless devices targeted to Chinese-speaking markets.
 
See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included as part of Item 14 of this Form 10-K for financial information relating to Lionbridge’s operating segments and geographic areas of operation.
 
Sales and Marketing
 
Substantially all of Lionbridge’s revenue has been generated through its dedicated direct sales force. Lionbridge currently has more than 50 direct sales professionals based in the United States, Europe and Asia who sell the full range of Lionbridge services. The Lionbridge sales approach is highly consultative and often involves planning for an organization’s ongoing requirements, including future versions of products, and ongoing support, maintenance, and training, related to both traditional and Web deployment. There are often several different functional areas within the same organization that require one or more of Lionbridge’s services. Many of its clients do not coordinate these purchases but buy these services at the department head level. As a result, Lionbridge’s sales professionals may call on several functional departments and at various management levels within the same client organization.
 
Lionbridge’s marketing efforts are designed to create brand recognition and demand for Lionbridge services throughout the world. Marketing programs include targeted industry and solution-specific advertising campaigns, trade show participation, speaking engagements, and promotion of customer success stories. Lionbridge plans to continue to expand its sales and marketing activities.

Clients
 
Lionbridge clients are generally Global 2000 and emerging companies in the technology, life sciences, financial services and manufacturing industries. During the year ended December 31, 2001, Lionbridge provided services to more than 625 clients worldwide. The following companies are representative Lionbridge clients, each of whom purchased more than $1,000,000 in services from Lionbridge in the year ended December 31, 2001:
 
Adobe Systems
 
Lexmark
 
Parametric Technology
Cisco Systems
 
Microsoft
 
Rational Software
Compaq
 
Nortel Networks
 
SAP
Hewlett-Packard
 
Novell
 
Schneider Automation
Hyperion
 
Oracle
 
Sun Microsystems
IBM
 
Page Factory
 
Unicare Life & Health Insurance
 
In 2001, Lionbridge’s largest client, Hewlett-Packard, accounted for approximately 13% of total revenue. No other clients individually accounted for more than 10% of revenue in 2001, 2000 or 1999. In 2001, 2000 and 1999, Lionbridge’s five largest clients accounted for approximately 32%, 33%, and 29%, respectively, of revenue.
 
Competition
 
Lionbridge provides a broad range of solutions for worldwide deployment of technology and content to its clients. The market for its services is highly fragmented, and Lionbridge has many competitors. Lionbridge’s current competitors include the following:
 
 
·
 
Localization or translation services providers such as Berlitz International, Bowne Global Solutions (a unit of Bowne & Co.), SDL plc and regional vendors of translation services specializing in specific languages in particular geographic areas. Additionally, companies which provide tool subsets or specific services have entered the market, including Convey Software (formerly eTranslate), GlobalSight, Idiom Technologies, Uniscape, and others;
 
 
·
 
Independent testing labs providing testing and logo certification services such as National Software Testing Laboratories (a subsidiary of CMP Media) and Keylabs, and
 
 
·
 
Internal localization departments of Global 2000 and large emerging companies.
 
Lionbridge may also face competition from a number of other companies in the future, including some companies that currently seek localization services from it. As businesses shift from telephonic support centers to Web-based support, technical support call centers and others that currently provide traditional outsourcing services may decide to provide comparable globalization services over the Internet. Other potential entrants into Lionbridge’s market include Web consulting companies who are being asked by their customers to assist them with international Web deployments. Currently, these companies are often requesting localization assistance from Lionbridge. Over time, however, they may determine to expand into localization to directly serve their customers’ requirements. Additionally, as hosting companies expand internationally and require localization of the content they host, these companies may expand to provide localization services themselves. As content management providers are brought international by their customers, they will be required to assist their customers with maintaining a multilingual database. While today they are often working with Lionbridge to assist in meeting their customers’ needs, it is possible that over time they will expand into offering competitive services.
 
There are relatively few barriers preventing companies from competing with Lionbridge. Lionbridge’s technology does not preclude or inhibit others from entering its market. As a result, new market entrants potentially pose a threat to Lionbridge’s business. While Lionbridge presently uses translation memory software licensed from third parties in its localization process, and to a lesser extent machine translation software also licensed from third parties, these technologies may improve and become sophisticated enough to compete with Lionbridge’s localization service offering.

Table of Contents
 
Lionbridge believes the principal competitive factors in providing its services include project management expertise, quality and speed of service delivery, vertical industry expertise, the ability to provide clients end-to-end globalization solutions, expertise and presence in certain geographic areas, corporate reputation, and expertise in Internet-related services. Lionbridge believes it has competed favorably with respect to these factors and has a strong reputation in its industry. However, Lionbridge cannot assure you that it will be able to do so in the future.
 
Intellectual Property Rights
 
Lionbridge’s success is dependent, in part, upon its proprietary Rapid Globalization Methodology, its Lionbridge Globalization Platform technologies, and other intellectual property rights. Lionbridge has patents or patent applications pending relating to its language automation translation memory engine. Lionbridge relies on a combination of trade secret, license, nondisclosure and other contractual agreements, and copyright and trademark laws to protect its intellectual property rights. Existing trade secret and copyright laws afford Lionbridge only limited protection. Lionbridge enters into confidentiality agreements with its employees, requires that its outside consultants and generally its clients enter into these agreements, and limit access to and distribution of Lionbridge’s proprietary information. Lionbridge cannot assure you that these arrangements will be adequate to deter misappropriation of its proprietary information or that it will be able to detect unauthorized use and take appropriate steps to enforce its intellectual property rights.
 
Human Resources
 
As of December 31, 2001, Lionbridge had 1,036 employees. Of these, 760 were consulting and service delivery professionals and 276 were management and administrative personnel performing marketing, sales, operations, process and technology, research and development, finance, accounting, and administrative functions.
 
Lionbridge has been successful in hiring individuals with leading-edge technical skills and project management experience. In addition, Lionbridge is committed to employee training and retention. Lionbridge has a dedicated knowledge management team that initiates and oversees the training and development of its service delivery professionals. Key organizational development initiatives include ongoing technical and project management classes as well as career path management and guidance.
 
Most employees are eligible to participate in Lionbridge’s stock option program. Additionally, a large number of Lionbridge’s employees are eligible to participate in its employee stock purchase program.
 
Lionbridge’s employees in France are represented by a labor union, and there are works councils in The Netherlands and Germany. Lionbridge has never experienced a work stoppage and believes that its employee relations are good.
 
Item 2.     Properties
 
Lionbridge maintains offices in the United States, Brazil, England, Ireland, France, Germany, The Netherlands, China, Japan, Taiwan and South Korea. Lionbridge maintains sales offices throughout the United States as well as in Dublin, Ireland; Paris, France; Rendsburg and Hamburg, Germany; Reading, England; Beijing, China; and Tokyo, Japan.
 
Lionbridge’s headquarters and principal administrative, finance, legal, and marketing operations are located in leased office space in Waltham, Massachusetts. Lionbridge’s lease is for a term of 3 years and expires on August 1, 2002. Lionbridge maintains a facility in metropolitan Dublin, Ireland and leases three floors under three separate leases expiring between September 14, 2025 and March 1, 2026. Lionbridge also maintains an operations center in Framingham, Massachusetts under a lease with a 5-year term that expires in February 2007. Lionbridge expects that it may need additional space as its business expands and believes that it will be able to obtain additional space as needed on commercially reasonable terms.

Item 3.     Legal Proceedings
 
In March 2002, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York entered an order dismissing without prejudice the claims against Lionbridge and its officers and directors in a certain securities class action lawsuit filed in July 2001. The complaint in this action asserted, among other things, that Lionbridge’s initial public offering prospectus and registration statement contained material misrepresentations and/or omissions regarding the conduct of Lionbridge’s initial public offering underwriters in allocating shares in Lionbridge’s initial public offering to the underwriters’ customers. In connection with this dismissal, Lionbridge and the individual defendants have agreed to extend the duration of applicable limitations periods as to such claims until December 31, 2002.
 
 
No matters were submitted to a vote of Lionbridge’s security holders during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001.
 
PART II
 
 
Lionbridge commenced its initial public offering of common stock on August 20, 1999 at a price to the public of $10.00 per share. As of March 14, 2002, there were approximately 350 holders of record of Lionbridge’s common stock. Lionbridge’s common stock is listed and traded on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol “LIOX.”

Lionbridge has not paid any cash dividends on its common stock and currently intends to retain any future earnings for use in its business. In addition, the terms of Lionbridge’s credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank prohibit the payment of cash dividends to Lionbridge by its European subsidiaries and the terms of the subordinated notes held by Capital Resource Lenders and two Morgan Stanley limited partnerships prohibit Lionbridge from paying any dividends to its stockholders. Accordingly, Lionbridge does not anticipate that any cash dividends will be declared or paid on the common stock in the foreseeable future.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. Lionbridge makes such forward-looking statements under the provision of the “Safe Harbor” section of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of the factors described below in this Item 7 under “Factors That May Affect Future Results.” Actual results may vary materially from those projected, anticipated or indicated in any forward-looking statements. In this Item 7, the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “future,” “could,” and similar words or expressions (as well as other words or expressions referencing future events, conditions, or circumstances) identify forward-looking statements. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with “Selected Consolidated Financial Data” and the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
 
Overview
 
Lionbridge is a leading provider of solutions for worldwide deployment of technology and content, serving global businesses in the technology, financial services, manufacturing and life sciences industries. Lionbridge’s full suite of services include: globalization and localization solutions, comprehensive and product certification testing services and application development. Founded in 1996, Lionbridge manages some of its services under the VeriTest brand for comprehensive and product certification testing, the Harvard Translations brand for specialty translation and print/Web publishing services for the financial services and life sciences industries, and the ChinaConnect brand for Web integration and wireless application services applicable to the Chinese-speaking market.
 
Lionbridge has experienced operating losses, as well as net losses, for each year of its operations and, as of December 31, 2001, had an accumulated deficit of $103.8 million.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Lionbridge’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires Lionbridge to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Lionbridge periodically evaluates its estimates. Lionbridge bases its estimates on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Lionbridge believes the following accounting policies require the greatest amount of judgments or estimates in the preparation of the financial statements: revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets and the provision for income taxes.

10


Table of Contents
 
Revenue Recognition.    Lionbridge’s revenue is derived from project-by-project fees and, to a lesser extent, long-term service agreements. Projects are generally billed on a time and expense basis. Revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, based on all costs incurred to date as a percentage of management’s estimate of total costs of individual projects. The agreements entered into in connection with projects are generally terminable by clients upon 30 days’ prior written notice. If a client terminates an agreement, it is required to pay Lionbridge for time and expenses incurred through the termination date.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.    Lionbridge establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts to cover accounts receivable that may not be collectible. In establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, Lionbridge analyzes the collectibility of individual large or past due accounts. Additionally, Lionbridge considers its historical bad debt experience and current economic trends in evaluating the allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts written off in subsequent periods can differ materially from the allowance provided.
 
Valuation of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.    Lionbridge assesses the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors that Lionbridge considers important which could trigger an impairment review include: significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; significant changes in the overall business strategy; and significant negative industry or economic trends. When Lionbridge determines that the carrying value of intangibles and goodwill may not be recoverable based upon one or more of these indicators of impairment, Lionbridge measures any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method. In 2002, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” became effective. As a result, Lionbridge will cease to amortize approximately $13.9 million of goodwill. Lionbridge had recorded approximately $5.6 million of amortization of these amounts during 2001. In lieu of amortization, Lionbridge is required to perform an initial impairment review of its goodwill balances in 2002. The impairment review is based upon estimated future discounted cash flows. Estimating future cash flows requires making projections that can differ materially from actual results.
 
Provision for Income Taxes.    Lionbridge is required to estimate its income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates as part of preparing its consolidated financial statements. This involves estimating the actual current tax in addition to assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatments for tax and financial accounting purposes. These differences together with net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits may be recorded as deferred tax assets or liabilities on the balance sheet. A judgment must then be made of the likelihood that any deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. To the extent that Lionbridge determines that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be utilized, a valuation allowance is established. Taxable income in future periods significantly different from that projected may cause adjustments to the valuation allowance that could materially increase or decrease future income tax expense.
 
Acquisitions
 
Lionbridge has grown its business through a combination of acquisitions and organic growth since its inception in 1996. Such acquisitions through December 31, 2001 have resulted in the cumulative recognition of approximately $38.5 million of goodwill and other intangible assets on its balance sheet, which generally have been amortized over five years.
 
In January 1999, Lionbridge acquired all of the stock of VeriTest, Inc. (“VeriTest”), a California-based provider of contract and logo certification testing services. Lionbridge paid $3.3 million in cash and issued notes totaling $750,000 and 66,668 shares of its common stock valued at $344,000. Subsequent to the acquisition date, pursuant to terms of the original agreement, Lionbridge paid a further $900,000 in cash in connection with the purchase. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. In connection with this acquisition, Lionbridge has recorded $4.1 million of goodwill, which has been amortized using a five-year life.
 
In April 1999, Lionbridge’s wholly owned subsidiary, INT’L.com, acquired International Language Engineering Corporation (“ILE”), a company based in Colorado with additional operations in The Netherlands,

11


Table of Contents
for total consideration of $9.2 million, consisting of 1,983,017 shares of common stock valued at $3.4 million and 936,991 shares of Series D redeemable preferred stock valued at $5.8 million. In addition, long-term debt of ILE in the amount of $3.3 million was assumed. Upon the completion of the acquisition, all outstanding options to purchase common stock of ILE were exchanged for options to purchase common stock of INT’L.com under similar terms. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. In connection with this acquisition, $7.3 million of goodwill was recorded, which has been amortized using a five-year life.
 
At December 31, 1998, Lionbridge’s wholly owned subsidiary, INT’L.com, had a 32.8% equity investment in Motus!, a French-based provider of localization and translation services. This investment was accounted for using the equity method, under which INT’L.com recorded its proportionate share of the (income) loss of Motus! as other (income) expense, net. On September 30, 1999, INT’L.com acquired the remaining shares of common stock of Motus! for $124,000 in cash and options to purchase 4,540 shares of common stock of INT’L.com valued at $20,000. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill of $217,000 was recorded in connection with this acquisition, which has been amortized using a five-year life.
 
In January 2000, Lionbridge acquired certain assets and operations of the language services operation of Nortel Networks Corporation (“Nortel”) in Montreal and Ottawa, Canada; Beijing, China; Sao Paulo, Brazil; Sunrise, Florida; and Bogota, Colombia for total initial consideration of $2.5 million in cash. In connection with the acquisition, Nortel awarded a preferred vendor designation to Lionbridge as part of a three-year services agreement. The purchase agreement provides for certain contingent payments to be made by Lionbridge during the first three years of the services agreement, dependent on the level of revenues generated under the services agreement during those periods. No such contingent payments were due as a result of revenues generated in 2001 or 2000. Lionbridge recorded $323,000 of goodwill related to this acquisition, not including any additional amounts that may be paid in the future, which has been amortized using a five-year life. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
 
In May 2000, Lionbridge acquired Harvard Translations by means of a merger. Upon the effective date of the merger, each outstanding share of Harvard Translations common stock was converted into the right to receive 3.8864 shares of Lionbridge common stock. In addition, long-term debt of Harvard Translations payable to its former sole stockholder in the amount of approximately $203,000 and all accrued interest thereon was paid in full by the issuance of 13,820 shares of Lionbridge common stock. As a result of the merger, Lionbridge issued an aggregate of 285,865 shares of Lionbridge common stock. Upon the completion of the acquisition, all outstanding options to purchase common stock of Harvard Translations were assumed by Lionbridge and converted into options to purchase common stock of Lionbridge under similar terms. The transaction was accounted for using the pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
 
In May 2000, Lionbridge acquired INT’L.com by means of a merger. Upon the effective date of the merger, (i) each outstanding share of INT’L.com Series A common stock, Series B common stock, Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock was converted into the right to receive 0.7567 shares of Lionbridge common stock, (ii) each outstanding share of INT’L.com Series C preferred stock was converted into the right to receive 5.4590 shares of Lionbridge common stock, (iii) each outstanding share of INT’L.com Series D preferred stock was converted into the right to receive 0.5472 shares of Lionbridge common stock, (iv) the $2.0 million of INT’L.com convertible debt and all accrued interest thereon was paid in full and cancelled in exchange for 109,158 shares of Lionbridge common stock, and (v) $5.0 million of INT’L.com subordinated debt and all accrued interest thereon was paid in full and cancelled in exchange for 258,360 shares of Lionbridge common stock. As a result of the merger, Lionbridge issued an aggregate of 8,302,960 shares of common stock. Upon the completion of the acquisition, all outstanding options to purchase common stock of INT’L.com were assumed by Lionbridge and converted into options to purchase common stock of Lionbridge under similar terms. The transaction was accounted for using the pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
 
The financial information presented below reflects the combined financial position, operating results and cash flows of Lionbridge, Harvard Translations and INT’L.com and their subsidiaries as if they had been combined for all periods presented.

In January 2001, Lionbridge acquired Quality Group Labs, Inc. (“Quality Group Labs”), a provider of testing services based in Massachusetts, for total initial consideration of $483,000, comprised of $250,000 in cash and 74,488 shares of Lionbridge common stock valued at $233,000. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. In connection with this acquisition, Lionbridge recognized $433,000 of goodwill, which has been amortized using a five-year life. Additional goodwill of approximately $160,000 was subsequently recorded in 2002 in connection with an incremental stock issuance of 60,000 shares of Lionbridge common stock made under the terms of the original agreement. The agreement does not provide for any further consideration.
 
On June 21, 2001, Lionbridge acquired Data Dimensions, Inc. (“Data Dimensions”), a company based in Washington with operations in the United States, Ireland and the United Kingdom, by means of a merger. Upon the effective date of the merger, each outstanding share of Data Dimensions common stock was converted into the right to receive 0.190884 shares of Lionbridge common stock. As a result of the merger, Lionbridge issued an aggregate of 2,588,316 shares of Lionbridge common stock valued at $12.7 million. Upon the completion of the merger, all outstanding options and warrants to purchase common stock of Data Dimensions, with a fair value at that time of $1.2 million, were assumed by Lionbridge and converted into options and warrants to purchase 451,860 shares of common stock of Lionbridge under similar terms. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. In connection with this acquisition, Lionbridge recognized $7.2 million of goodwill, which has been amortized using a five-year life.
 
Lionbridge believes its acquisitions have contributed to its growth by rapidly expanding its employee base, geographic coverage, client base, industry expertise, and technical skills. Lionbridge anticipates that a portion of its future growth will be accomplished by acquiring existing businesses. The success of this plan depends upon, among other things, its ability to integrate acquired personnel, operations, products, and technologies into its organization effectively; to retain and motivate key personnel of acquired businesses; and to retain customers of acquired firms. Lionbridge cannot guarantee that it will be able to identify suitable acquisition opportunities, obtain any necessary financing on acceptable terms to finance any acquisitions, consummate any acquisitions, or successfully integrate acquired personnel and operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2001, Lionbridge recorded a net merger credit of $20,000. This amount consists primarily of fees for professional services incurred in connection with Lionbridge’s attempted acquisition of Mendez S.A., offset by the receipt of a $1.0 million fee from the successful bidder for Mendez S.A.
 
Restructuring charges of $2.5 million were recorded in the year ended December 31, 2001. These charges relate to: (i) the costs of consolidating Lionbridge facilities in the United States as a result of the acquisition of Data Dimensions, consisting primarily of accruals for lease payments on vacant office space, and (ii) costs associated with workforce reductions in the United States, Canada, Brazil, Japan, China, Korea, Germany, Ireland, The Netherlands, the United Kingdom and France, consisting of 154 technical staff, 26 sales and marketing staff and 50 administrative staff. All employees had been informed of their termination and related benefits in the period that the charge was recorded. The restructuring charge for the year ended December 31, 2001 is presented net of a $66,000 reversal of a charge recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2001 due to subsequent events which reduced the amount of benefits paid on behalf of a terminated employee.

13


Table of Contents
 
Impairment charges for long-lived assets for the year ended December 31, 2001 of $336,000 relate primarily to the write-off of acquired workforce and software licenses as a result of the closure of Lionbridge’s office in Montreal, Canada during the second quarter of 2001.
 
Merger costs for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $2.5 million consist of fees for investment banking, legal and accounting services and other direct costs incurred in connection with Lionbridge’s mergers with Harvard Translations and INT’L.com.
 
Restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $915,000 relate to: (i) the costs of closing facilities in the United States, France and The Netherlands as a result of the merger with INT’L.com, consisting primarily of accruals for lease payments on vacant office space, and (ii) costs associated with workforce reductions in Canada, the United States and France, consisting of six technical staff and three administrative staff. All employees had been informed of their termination and related benefits in the period that the charge was recorded. The restructuring charge for the year ended December 31, 2000 is presented net of a $162,000 reversal of a charge recorded in the second quarter of 2000, due to subsequent events which have reduced the potential loss on vacant office space.
 
Impairment charges for long-lived assets for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $886,000 relate to the write-off of property and equipment, primarily consisting of previously capitalized licenses for software, that was abandoned as a result of Lionbridge’s merger with INT’L.com.
 
Restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 1999 of $1.2 million consist of charges related to workforce reductions in INT’L.com’s United States operating sites, consisting of 36 technical staff, 14 administrative staff and four sales staff.
 
At December 31, 2001, accruals totaling $364,000 related to restructuring charges, in addition to accruals of $2,078,000 related to restructuring charges which were assumed upon the acquisition of Data Dimensions, remained on the consolidated balance sheet. Lionbridge currently anticipates that all merger and restructuring accrual balances will be fully utilized by December 31, 2002, except for certain long-term contractual obligations relating to leases for facilities, $648,000 of which related to long-term obligations on unused facilities and is included in Other long-term liabilities.
 
During the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, Lionbridge utilized $917,000 and $2.5 million, respectively, of accruals related to merger costs and $3.8 million and $712,000, respectively, related to restructuring charges.
 
Non-Cash Charges
 
Deferred Compensation
 
Lionbridge recorded deferred compensation of approximately $3.8 million in 1999, representing the difference between the exercise price of stock options granted to employees and the fair market value for accounting purposes of the underlying common stock at the date of the grant. The deferred compensation is being amortized over the four-year vesting period of the applicable options. Of the total deferred compensation amount, $2.1 million had been amortized and $1.1 million had been reversed due to forfeitures of the underlying options at December 31, 2001. The amortization of deferred compensation is recorded as an operating expense and totaled $565,000, $799,000 and $730,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Lionbridge currently expects to amortize the following remaining amounts of deferred compensation as of December 31, 2001 in the fiscal periods ending:
 
December 31, 2002
  
$480,000
December 31, 2003
  
$161,000
 
Original Issue Discount on Debt
 
Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2001 includes $738,000 for the accretion of the original issue discount on $5.0 million of subordinated debt issued in June 2001 by Lionbridge. This discount represents

14


Table of Contents
the value attributable to warrants to purchase up to 900,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.80 per share, granted in connection with the debt financing. The principal under the note was due on October 31, 2001. However, as a result of terms included in the original subordinated debt agreement, on October 31, 2001, the note automatically converted into a new note with essentially identical terms but with a principal amount of $8,000,000 due on September 30, 2006. The $3.0 million discount on the new note is being accreted through interest expense on a straight-line basis over the period from November 1, 2001 to September 30, 2006. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2001 includes $101,000 of accretion of this discount.
 
Interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 includes approximately $212,000 and $42,000, respectively, for the accretion of the original issue discount on $2.0 million of convertible promissory notes issued in August 1999 by INT’L.com. This discount represents the $254,000 value attributable to warrants to purchase 56,753 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $1.45 per share, granted in connection with these notes. These warrants were fully exercised in May 2000 in a cashless exercise, resulting in the net issuance of 49,547 shares of Lionbridge common stock.
 
Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 1999 includes approximately $6.0 million for the accretion of the original issue discount on $12.0 million of subordinated notes issued in the first quarter of 1999. This discount represents the $6.0 million value attributable to detachable warrants to purchase 1,533,260 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $0.015 per share, granted in connection with this debt financing. As Lionbridge was previously required to repay the subordinated notes in full upon the closing of its initial public offering, Lionbridge recorded the expense of this discount on a straight-line basis over a six-month period from date of debt issuance to the date by which it expected the initial public offering to occur. Pursuant to an amendment of the debt agreements effective August 19, 1999, Lionbridge was required to redeem only $6.0 million of the subordinated notes upon the closing of its initial public offering of securities on August 25, 1999.

Year Ended December 31, 2001 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2000
 
Revenue.    In 2001, revenue decreased 12.1% to $101.2 million from $115.1 million in 2000. The decrease was attributable to lower volume of projects received from recurring customers as well as a decrease in the number of customers, reflecting the effect of the global economic slowdown in the technology sector during the year. Specifically, revenue from customers in the telecommunications industry decreased by 47.5% from the revenue recognized from the same customers during the previous year. Partially offsetting the decrease was incremental revenue derived from the operations of Data Dimensions of $9.7 million which was acquired in June 2001. Revenue for 2000 included incremental revenue of approximately $2.0 million derived from work in process acquired as part of Lionbridge’s acquisition of the language services operation of Nortel during the first quarter of that year.
 
Cost of Revenue.    Cost of revenue consists primarily of expenses incurred for translation services provided by third parties as well as salaries and associated employee benefits for personnel related to client projects. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 62.4% in 2001 as compared to 63.2% for the prior year. Of the total $9.6 million decrease from 2000 to 2001, $1.5 million was attributable to the cost recorded in the first quarter of 2000 upon the completion of the work in process acquired as part of the acquisition of the language services operation of Nortel in that quarter. The remaining amount of the decrease was largely attributable to reduced headcount and lowered reliance on external consultants and translators, partially offset by $5.2 million of incremental costs relating to the operations of Data Dimensions since its acquisition by Lionbridge in June 2001.
 
Sales and Marketing.    Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions and associated employee benefits, travel expenses of sales and marketing personnel, and promotional expenses. Sales and marketing costs of $11.3 million in 2001 were essentially flat with the previous year. Sales and marketing expenses associated with the operations of Data Dimensions were $871,000 for 2001 which were offset by headcount reductions and curtailed marketing expenditures in other parts of the business. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expenses increased during 2001 to 11.2% from 9.9% in the prior year as a result of the declining revenue levels period to period.
 
General and Administrative.    General and administrative expenses consist of salaries of the management, purchasing, process and technology, finance and administrative groups, and associated employee benefits; facilities costs, including related depreciation and amortization; information systems costs; professional fees; travel; and all other site and corporate costs. General and administrative costs increased 3.7% to $34.4 million in 2001 from $33.1 million in 2000. The acquisition of Data Dimensions in June 2001 accounted for approximately $4.5 million of the increase, which was partially offset by the positive effects of restructuring activities undertaken throughout 2001. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses were 34.0% in 2001 compared to 28.8% in 2000 due to the reasons noted above as well as the declining revenue levels period to period.
 
Research and Development.    Research and development expenses relate to the Lionbridge Globalization Platform, an array of configurable technologies used in the globalization process, and include salaries and associated employee benefits, equipment depreciation and third-party contractor expenses. Research and development expense decreased 8.8% to $2.3 million in 2001 from $2.5 million in 2000. Lower usage of external consultants and lower headcount-related expenses accounted for a decrease of $425,000, which was partially offset by increased equipment-related expenses.
 
Amortization of Acquisition-related Intangible Assets.    Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets consists of amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets resulting from acquired businesses. Amortization increased 2.3% to $6.7 million in 2001 from $6.5 million in 2000. This increase was primarily attributable to $847,000 of goodwill amortization associated with the acquisitions of Quality Group Labs in January 2001 and Data Dimensions in June 2001, offset by a reduction in amortization expense related to fully amortized intangible assets in 2001 and a reduction in goodwill resulting from the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.
 
Interest Expense.    Interest expense represents interest paid or payable on debt and the accretion of discounts on subordinated notes with detachable warrants. Interest expense increased to $3.2 million in 2001

16


Table of Contents
from $2.8 million in 2000. This increase was principally due to accretion of the discount on debt issued in June 2001, partially offset by the cessation of accretion of the original issue discount on notes issued in 1999. Interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 includes $839,000 and $0, respectively, for the accretion of the discount on a note issued in June 2001 and $0 and $212,000, respectively, for the accretion of the original issue discount on notes issued in August 1999.
 
Other Expense, Net.    Other expense, net consists primarily of foreign currency translation gains or losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in currencies other than the local currencies of the countries in which the transactions are recorded. As a percentage of revenue, other expense, net, increased to 0.8% from 0.6% for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Other expense, net increased 17.4% to $838,000 in 2001 from $714,000 in 2000.
 
Provision for Income Taxes.    The provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 represents taxes resulting from operations in foreign jurisdictions. Of the provision amounts booked for 2001 and 2000, $15,000 and $243,000, respectively, represent noncash expenses resulting from utilizations of net operating loss carryforwards. The benefit from Lionbridge’s utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in certain European countries during these periods was recorded as a reduction of goodwill, rather than a tax provision benefit, since the deferred tax assets associated with these carryforwards had been fully reserved at the time Lionbridge acquired the localization businesses of Stream International Holdings, Inc. (“Stream”). Lionbridge recorded no tax benefit for losses generated in other jurisdictions during these periods due to the uncertainty of realizing any benefit.
 
Year Ended December 31, 2000 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1999
 
Revenue.    In 2000, revenue increased 29.7% to $115.1 million from $88.8 million in 1999. This increase results from both an increase in the number of customers as well as an increase in project size during 2000 as compared to 1999. Additionally, results for 2000 reflected revenue derived from the operations acquired from Nortel in January 2000 which accounted for $6.4 million of the increase as well as the operations of ILE which were only included in 1999 for nine months.
 
Cost of Revenue.    As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 63.2% in 2000, a decrease of 7.4% from the 70.6% level of 1999. These decreases were primarily attributable to decreased outsourcing costs as INT’L.com adopted the Lionbridge outsourcing pricing structure in the second half of 2000 as well as a reduction in the internal cost of sales due to the consolidation of certain offices in 2000.
 
Sales and Marketing.    Sales and marketing costs increased 12.3% to $11.4 million in 2000 from $10.1 million in 1999. This increase was primarily due to expenses associated with the hiring of seven additional direct sales personnel in 2000. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expenses decreased to 9.9% from 11.4% during 2000 as a result of the rate of revenue growth during the year exceeding the corresponding rate of increase in sales and marketing expense.
 
General and Administrative.    General and administrative costs increased 13.4% to $33.1 million in 2000 from $29.2 million in 1999, partially as a result of the acquisition of the Nortel operations in January 2000 and the full-year impact of the acquisition of ILE in the second quarter of 1999. Also contributing to the increase were higher depreciation expense, the full-year impact of expenses related to being a publicly traded company and costs associated with an increased number of employees. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses were 28.8% in 2000 compared to 33.0% in 1999.
 
Research and Development.    Research and development expense increased 13.6% to $2.5 million in 2000 from $2.2 million in 1999. This increase reflects the full-year impact of development efforts for the workflow component of LGP which commenced during the first quarter of 1999.
 
Amortization of Acquisition-related Intangible Assets.    Amortization increased 6.4% to $6.5 million in 2000 from $6.1 million in 1999. This increase was primarily attributable to the amortization of goodwill and

17


Table of Contents
other intangible assets recognized on the acquisition of the Nortel language services operations in 2000 as well as the full-year impact of ILE which was only acquired in the second quarter of 1999.
 
Interest Expense.    Interest expense decreased to $2.7 million in 2000 from $8.4 million in 1999. This decrease was principally due to a decrease in the accretion of the original issue discount on notes issued in 1999 to $212,000 from $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
 
Other Expense, Net.    Other expense, net consists primarily of foreign currency translation gains or losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in currencies other than the local currencies of the countries in which the transactions are recorded. As a percentage of revenue, other expense, net, increased to 0.6% from 0.4% for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Other expense, net increased 103.4% to $714,000 in 2000 from $351,000 in 1999.
 
Provision for Income Taxes.    The provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 represents taxes resulting from operations in foreign jurisdictions. Of the provision amounts booked for 2000 and 1999, $243,000 and $519,000, respectively, represent noncash expenses resulting from utilizations of net operating loss carryforwards. The benefit from Lionbridge’s utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in certain European countries during these periods was recorded as a reduction of goodwill, rather than a tax provision benefit, since the deferred tax assets associated with these carryforwards had been fully reserved at the time Lionbridge acquired Stream’s localization businesses. Lionbridge recorded no tax benefit for losses generated in other jurisdictions during these periods due to the uncertainty of realizing any benefit.
 
Quarterly Results of Operations
 
The following tables set forth unaudited consolidated quarterly financial data for the periods indicated. Lionbridge derived this data from its unaudited consolidated financial statements, and, in the opinion of management, they have been prepared on the same basis as Lionbridge’s audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, and include all adjustments, which consist only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial results for the periods. Certain quarterly amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation. The operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.

Lionbridge has experienced quarter-to-quarter variability in its revenue and gross profit. This variability is due to fluctuations in its clients’ release cycles, the length of the its sales cycle, rapid growth, acquisitions, the emerging nature of the markets in which Lionbridge competes, global economic conditions and other factors outside Lionbridge’s control. Lionbridge believes that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of results of operations are not necessarily meaningful. You should not rely on these comparisons as a measure of future performance.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Since inception, Lionbridge has relied upon sales of equity securities and borrowings to fund operations. On August 25, 1999, Lionbridge completed its initial public offering of 3,500,000 shares of common stock. After deducting expenses, Lionbridge received approximately $31.8 million in cash proceeds from this transaction. In June 2000, Lionbridge issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock at $8.50 per share in a private placement for total consideration before expenses of approximately $12.8 million. In August 2001, Lionbridge issued 460,000 shares of common stock at $0.55 per share to its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in a private placement for total consideration of $253,000.
 
Net cash used in operations was $6.7 million in 2001, $8.6 million in 2000, and $10.1 million in 1999. Cash used in these periods was primarily to fund the net losses of $24.5 million, $20.3 million, and $33.2 million incurred during these years, respectively, offset in part by depreciation, amortization and other non-cash expenses, and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Changes in operating assets and liabilities were largely the result of Lionbridge’s business operations during these periods in addition to a receipt in 2001 of a tax refund of $5.0 million related to the pre-acquisition operations of Data Dimensions. Lionbridge has not experienced any significant trends in accounts receivable other than changes relative to increases in sales. Fluctuations in accounts receivable from period to period relative to changes in sales are a result of the timing of customer invoicing and receipt of payments from customers.
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $684,000 in 2001, $6.0 million in 2000, and $5.6 million in 1999. Investing activities for these periods were primarily purchases of equipment and the acquisitions of Quality Group Labs and Data Dimensions in 2001, certain assets of the language services operation of Nortel in 2000, and VeriTest, ILE, and Motus! in 1999.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.5 million in 2001, $19.0 million in 2000, and $27.2 million in 1999. The primary financing activities were the issuance of $5.0 million of notes payable and the private placement of common stock in 2001, the private placement of common stock in 2000, and the completion of Lionbridge’s initial public offering in 1999, with additional resources being provided by borrowings against Lionbridge’s bank lines of credit in each year as well as the issuance of the subordinated debt and convertible promissory notes in 1999 and 2000.
 
As of December 31, 2001, Lionbridge had $8.6 million outstanding under its commercial credit facility with a bank that allows Lionbridge to borrow up to $13.0 million, expiring June 2002. The bank has indicated in a letter to Lionbridge its intention to extend the credit facility to April 2003. The facility requires Lionbridge to maintain certain financial covenants and restricts the payment of dividends. The facility bears interest at prime plus 2.00% (6.75% at December 31, 2001) and is collateralized by worldwide accounts receivable.
 
In June 2001, Lionbridge entered into a subordinated debt agreement pursuant to which a 12% promissory note in the amount of $5,000,000 was issued. The principal under the note was due on October 31, 2001, with interest payable quarterly in arrears. However, as a result of terms included in the original subordinated debt agreement, on October 31, 2001, the note automatically converted into a new note with essentially identical terms but with a principal amount of $8,000,000 due on September 30, 2006, with interest payable quarterly in arrears at 12% per year. The note is subject to certain covenant restrictions and the terms of the subordinated debt agreement restrict Lionbridge from paying dividends to its stockholders.
 
In the second quarter of 1999, Lionbridge’s wholly owned subsidiary, INT’L.com, assumed ILE’s obligation under a promissory note to a former stockholder in the amount of $3.3 million as part of its acquisition

19


Table of Contents
of ILE. The promissory note accrues interest at 8.5% per year and matures June 27, 2002. The promissory note is subordinate to all indebtedness owed by INT’L.com to any bank, pension fund, insurance fund or other financial institution.
 
In the first quarter of 1999, Lionbridge entered into subordinated loan agreements with Morgan Stanley Venture Capital Fund II Annex, L.P. and Morgan Stanley Venture Investors Annex, L.P., existing stockholders of Lionbridge, and Capital Resource Lenders III, L.P. Under the terms of the agreements, Lionbridge issued $12.0 million of subordinated notes. The agreements require Lionbridge to comply with several operating and financial covenants, including a prohibition on the payment of dividends to its stockholders. In connection with its initial public offering, Lionbridge repaid $6.0 million of the subordinated notes and Capital Resource Lenders and the Morgan Stanley-sponsored limited partnerships agreed to defer the repayment of the remaining $6.0 million of the subordinated notes that would otherwise have been due upon the completion of its initial public offering. A subsequent amendment of the debt agreements in March 2001 extended the maturity date of the notes to the earlier of January 31, 2002 or an underwritten public offering by Lionbridge with aggregate proceeds of at least $10,000,000. In the event of a qualifying underwritten public offering, 50% of the then outstanding notes and accrued interest are payable, with the remaining amount maturing on January 31, 2002. In December 2001, the notes were amended to change the maturity date of the notes to April 15, 2002.
 
As of December 31, 2001, Lionbridge’s other significant financial commitments consisted of $3.5 million of notes payable to former stockholders of INT’L.com which accrue interest at 6.0% per annum, increasing by 1.0% per annum, and mature in January 2005. Lionbridge also has obligations of $535,000 under an equipment financing facility and obligations under operating and capital leases.
 
The following table summarizes Lionbridge’s contractual cash obligations at December 31, 2001 and the effect such obligations are expected to have on its liquidity and cash flow in future periods.

Lionbridge has agreements with the Irish Industrial Development Agency regarding financial grants to its Irish subsidiaries from this agency. Under the agreements, the Irish subsidiaries may not pay dividends or otherwise distribute cash, including any distributions to Lionbridge. In addition, Lionbridge’s European subsidiaries, including its Irish subsidiaries, are restricted from paying dividends under the terms of its commercial credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank. These restrictions have not had an impact on Lionbridge or any of its subsidiaries and Lionbridge does not expect that these restrictions will have a material impact in the future.
 
As of December 31, 2001, Lionbridge had cash and cash equivalents of $11.7 million and an additional $1.1 million available for borrowing under the bank line of credit. Lionbridge’s future financing requirements will depend upon a number of factors, including Lionbridge’s operating performance and increases in operating expenses associated with growth in its business. Lionbridge anticipates that its present cash position and available financing should provide adequate cash to fund its currently anticipated cash needs through at least the next 12 months. Lionbridge expects to seek additional financing during 2002, but cannot assure you that additional financing, if needed, will be available to Lionbridge at terms acceptable to it, if at all.
 
Conversion to the Euro
 
On January 1, 1999, 11 European countries began using the Euro as their single currency, while still continuing to use their own notes and coins for cash transactions. Local coins and notes ceased to be legal tender

in January 2002. Lionbridge conducts a significant amount of business in these countries. The introduction of the Euro has not resulted in any material adverse impact upon the results of Lionbridge’s operations, although it continues to monitor the effects of the conversion. Any significant fluctuations in the value of the Euro could adversely impact the results of Lionbridge’s operations.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under the purchase method only and that certain acquired intangible assets in a business combination be recognized as assets apart from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires that ratable amortization of goodwill be replaced with periodic tests of the goodwill’s impairment and that intangible assets other than goodwill generally be amortized over their useful lives. In addition, SFAS No. 142 includes provisions for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the identification of reporting units for purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill. SFAS No. 142 also requires Lionbridge to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test within six months from the date of adoption. Application of the non-amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142 for goodwill is expected to result in an increase in operating income of approximately $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. At December 31, 2001, Lionbridge had goodwill of approximately $13.6 million. Pursuant to SFAS No. 142, Lionbridge will test its goodwill for impairment upon adoption and, if impairment is indicated, record such impairment as a cumulative effect of an accounting change. SFAS No. 141 is effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for all business combinations accounted for by the purchase method for which the date of acquisition is after June 30, 2001. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and were thus adopted by Lionbridge, as required, on January 1, 2002. Lionbridge has not yet determined whether it will be required to record an impairment of its goodwill in 2002.
 
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of.” SFAS No. 144 applies to all long-lived assets (including discontinued operations) and consequently amends Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, “Reporting Results of Operations—Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and were thus adopted by Lionbridge, as required, on January 1, 2002. Lionbridge does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 144 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
 
Factors That May Affect Future Results
 
This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. Lionbridge’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, without limitation, those set forth in the following risk factors and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition to the other information included or incorporated by reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating Lionbridge and its business.
 
Lionbridge’s revenue could be negatively affected by the delay of its clients’ product releases and production schedules or the loss of a major client.
 
A significant portion of Lionbridge’s revenue is linked to the product release cycle and production cycle of its clients. As a result, Lionbridge performs varying amounts of work for specific clients from year to year based on their product development schedule. A major client in one year may not have use for a similar level of Lionbridge’s services in another year. In addition, Lionbridge derives a significant portion of its revenues from large projects and programs for a limited number of clients. In 2001, Lionbridge’s largest customer accounted for

21


Table of Contents
approximately 13% of its revenue and its five largest clients accounted for approximately 32% of its revenue. As a result, the loss of any major client or a significant reduction in a large project’s scope could materially reduce Lionbridge’s revenue and cash flow, and adversely affect its ability to achieve and maintain profitability.
 
Lionbridge has an accumulated deficit, is not currently profitable and may incur future losses.
 
Lionbridge has incurred substantial losses since it was founded, and may continue to incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future. Lionbridge has an accumulated deficit of approximately $103.8 million as of December 31, 2001 and a net loss of $24.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2001. Lionbridge intends to continue to invest in internal expansion, infrastructure, integration of acquired companies into its existing operations, select acquisitions, and its sales and marketing efforts. Lionbridge cannot predict when it will operate profitably, if ever.
 
If Lionbridge’s losses continue, it will need to raise additional capital. If Lionbridge is unable to do so, or does so on unfavorable terms, the value of your investment in its stock may decline.
 
If Lionbridge’s cash losses continue, it may be unable to pay its expenses unless it raises additional capital. If Lionbridge needs to raise additional capital but is unable to do so, it may not be able to continue as a going concern. If Lionbridge needs to raise additional capital but is able to do so only on unfavorable terms, the value of your investment in its stock may decline.
 
Delisting of Lionbridge’s common stock from the Nasdaq National Market could negatively impact the marketability of the stock and reduce the market price of the stock.
 
In March 2002, Nasdaq notified Lionbridge that Lionbridge’s common stock may be subject to delisting from the Nasdaq National Market due to Lionbridge’s noncompliance with listing standards that require Lionbridge to maintain either (i) minimum stockholders’ equity of at least $10.0 million or (ii) a minimum bid price of $3.00 per share (regardless of the amount of Lionbridge’s stockholders’ equity). Lionbridge has until June 17, 2002 to regain compliance with either standard. If Lionbridge is not in compliance at June 17, 2002, then Nasdaq will notify Lionbridge that it will be delisted. Lionbridge can regain compliance if, no later than June 17, 2002, Lionbridge increases its stockholders’ equity to at least $10.0 million while maintaining a minimum closing bid price per share of $1.00 or by obtaining a minimum closing bid price per share of $3.00 for 10 consecutive days. Lionbridge intends to take all reasonable measures to regain compliance.
 
Although Lionbridge hopes to regain compliance by June 17, 2002, Lionbridge cannot assure you it will be successful in meeting the applicable listing standards. If Lionbridge fails to comply with the listing standards by June 17, 2002, Lionbridge will request a hearing with the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to appeal Nasdaq’s determination and the delisting may be suspended until the outcome of the hearing. Lionbridge cannot assure you that the outcome of the hearing will result in the continued listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq National Market. The delisting of Lionbridge common stock may result in the placement of the stock on the over-the-counter market or the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, the effect of which may limit the continuation of, or the re-establishment of, a public trading market for the Lionbridge common stock which could reduce or destabilize the stock price and impair Lionbridge’s ability to raise capital.
 
The uncertainty in the technology market could affect Lionbridge’s ability to achieve operating plans.
 
A substantial portion of Lionbridge’s revenue is derived from technology companies. Many technology companies have experienced severe economic slowdowns in 2001 and may continue to experience these slowdowns in the future. A continued slowdown in the technology market may have a negative impact on Lionbridge’s ability to achieve its operating plans.
 
Potential fluctuations in Lionbridge’s quarterly results make financial forecasting difficult and could affect its common stock trading price.
 
As a result of fluctuations in Lionbridge’s revenues tied to foreign currency fluctuations, its clients’ release cycles, the three- to nine-month length of its typical sales cycle, rapid growth, acquisitions, the emerging nature of the markets in which it competes, global economic conditions and other factors outside its control, Lionbridge

Table of Contents
believes that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of results of operations are not necessarily meaningful. You should not rely on the results of any one quarter as an indication of Lionbridge’s future performance. Lionbridge may not experience revenue increases in future years comparable to the revenue increases in some prior years. If in some future quarter Lionbridge’s results of operations were to fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, the trading price of its common stock would likely decline.
 
Lionbridge generally does not have long-term service agreements, which makes revenue forecasting difficult.
 
A majority of Lionbridge’s revenue is derived from individual projects rather than long-term service agreements. Lionbridge cannot assure you that a client will engage it for further services once a project is completed or that a client will not unilaterally reduce the scope of, or terminate, existing projects. You should not predict or anticipate Lionbridge’s future revenue based on the number of clients Lionbridge has or the size of its existing projects.
 
Lionbridge may be liable for defects or errors in the services it provides to its clients.
 
Many of the services Lionbridge provides are critical to its clients’ businesses. Any defects or errors in these services could result in:
 
 
·
 
delayed or lost client revenue;
 
 
·
 
adverse reaction to its clients from their end users and, ultimately, toward Lionbridge;
 
 
·
 
claims against Lionbridge;
 
 
·
 
negative publicity; and
 
 
·
 
additional expenditures to correct the defect or error.
 
Liability claims could require Lionbridge to spend significant time and money in litigation or to pay significant damages. Although Lionbridge maintains general liability insurance, including coverage for errors and omissions, Lionbridge cannot assure you that this coverage will be available in amounts sufficient to cover one or more large claims, or that the insurer will not disclaim coverage as to any future claims.
 
If Lionbridge fails to attract and retain professional staff, its ability to complete its projects and obtain new projects could suffer.
 
Lionbridge’s potential failure to attract and retain qualified employees could impair its ability to complete existing projects and bid for or obtain new projects and, as a result, could have a material adverse effect on its business and revenue. Lionbridge’s ability to grow and increase its market share largely depends on its ability to hire, train, retain, and manage highly skilled employees, including project managers and technical, translation, and sales and marketing personnel. In addition, Lionbridge must make sure its employees maintain their technical expertise and business skills. Lionbridge cannot assure you that it will be able to attract a sufficient number of qualified employees or that it will successfully train and manage the employees it hires.
 
Lionbridge may be unable to continue to grow at its historical growth rates or to manage its growth effectively.
 
Growth is a key component of increasing the value of Lionbridge. Since its inception, Lionbridge’s business has grown significantly and it anticipates additional future growth. This growth places a significant demand on management and operational resources. In order to manage growth effectively, Lionbridge must continue to improve its operational systems and controls. This additional growth may further strain Lionbridge’s management and operational resources. Lionbridge’s growth could also be adversely affected by many other factors, including economic downturns. As a result of these concerns, Lionbridge cannot be sure that it will continue to grow, or, if it does grow, that it will be able to maintain its overall historical growth rate.

23


Table of Contents
 
Difficulties presented by international economic, political, legal, accounting, and business factors could negatively affect Lionbridge’s business in international markets.
 
A large component of Lionbridge’s operations is its ability to conduct business in international markets, as evidenced by the fact that a large part of its current operations are outside of the United States. As a result, Lionbridge’s business is subject to the political and economic fluctuations in various countries. Lionbridge has experienced foreign currency fluctuations and they may have a more significant impact on its revenue, cash flow and ability to achieve and maintain profitability as Lionbridge continues to grow its business. In addition, Lionbridge has experienced long payment cycles and occasional problems in collecting accounts receivable originating outside of the United States. Lionbridge has experienced exchange rate losses as a result of fluctuations in the Euro and slowdowns in revenue growth as its clients reassessed their strategies in various countries based on political and economic conditions. In addition, as Lionbridge continues to employ and retain personnel throughout the world and apply varying employment laws, it may face difficulties in integrating such personnel on a cost-efficient basis. To date, Lionbridge has been able to successfully staff its international operations, but if Lionbridge continues to expand its operations, it may become more difficult to manage its business. If Lionbridge fails to manage these operations successfully, its ability to service its clients and grow its business will be seriously impeded.
 
Lionbridge’s goodwill and other intangible assets represent a significant portion of its assets; amortization of its intangible assets will adversely impact its net income, and Lionbridge may never realize the full value of its goodwill and other intangible assets.
 
Lionbridge’s acquisitions have resulted in the creation of significant goodwill and other intangible assets, which have generally been amortized over five-year periods. At December 31, 2001, Lionbridge had goodwill and other acquisition-related intangible assets of approximately $15.0 million, net of accumulated amortization, which represented approximately 27.3% of its total assets. Lionbridge will continue to incur non-cash charges in connection with the amortization of its other intangible assets over their remaining respective useful lives.
 
In the future, as events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of its goodwill and other intangible assets may not be recoverable, Lionbridge will evaluate the carrying value of its intangible assets and may take a charge to its earnings. Any future determination requiring the write-off of a significant portion of unamortized goodwill and other intangible assets could have a material adverse effect on Lionbridge’s results of operations.
 
Pursuing and completing potential acquisitions could divert management attention and financial resources and may not produce the desired business results.
 
In May 2000, Lionbridge acquired all of the capital stock of INT’L.com and Harvard Translations and in June 2001, Lionbridge acquired all of the capital stock of Data Dimensions, a publicly-traded provider of quality assurance and testing services. As part of its growth strategy, Lionbridge intends to continue pursuing and making selected acquisitions of other complementary businesses. Lionbridge does not have specific personnel dedicated solely to pursuing and making acquisitions. As a result, if Lionbridge pursues any acquisition, its management, in addition to their operational responsibilities, could spend a significant amount of time and management and financial resources to pursue and integrate the acquired business with its existing business. To pay for an acquisition, Lionbridge might use capital stock, cash or a combination of both. Alternatively, Lionbridge may borrow money from a bank or other lender. If it uses capital stock, Lionbridge’s stockholders will experience dilution. If it uses cash or debt financing, Lionbridge’s financial liquidity may be reduced. In addition, from an accounting perspective, an acquisition may involve nonrecurring charges or involve amortization of significant amounts of other intangible assets that could adversely affect Lionbridge’s ability to achieve and maintain profitability.
 
Despite the investment of these management and financial resources and completion of due diligence with respect to these efforts, an acquisition may not produce the revenue, earnings or business synergies that

24


Table of Contents
Lionbridge anticipated, and an acquired service or technology may not perform as expected for a variety of reasons, including:
 
 
·
 
difficulties in the assimilation of the operations, technologies, products and personnel of the acquired company,
 
 
·
 
risks of entering markets in which Lionbridge has no or limited prior experience,
 
 
·
 
expenses of any undisclosed or potential legal liabilities of the acquired company,
 
 
·
 
the applicability of rules and regulations that might restrict Lionbridge’s ability to operate, and
 
 
·
 
the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company.
 
Lionbridge may have difficulty in identifying and competing for acquisition opportunities.
 
Lionbridge’s business strategy includes the pursuit of strategic acquisitions. Lionbridge has engaged in discussions with third parties concerning potential acquisitions of niche expertise, businesses, and operations. Lionbridge currently does not have commitments or agreements with respect to any acquisitions. In executing its acquisition strategy, Lionbridge may be unable to identify suitable acquisition candidates. In addition, Lionbridge can expect to face competition from other companies for acquisition candidates, making it more difficult to acquire suitable companies on favorable terms.
 
If Lionbridge fails to keep pace with changing technologies, it may lose clients.
 
Lionbridge’s market is characterized by rapidly changing client requirements, and evolving technologies and industry standards. If Lionbridge cannot keep pace with these changes, its business could suffer. The Internet’s continued growth and strong influence in Lionbridge’s industry magnifies these characteristics. To achieve its goals, Lionbridge’s need to develop strategic business solutions and methodologies that keep pace with continuing changes in industry standards, information technology, and client preferences.
 
If Lionbridge loses the services of its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Rory J. Cowan, or other key personnel, its business and stock price could suffer.
 
In order to continue to provide quality services in its rapidly changing business, Lionbridge believes it is particularly important to retain personnel with experience and expertise relevant to its business. Lionbridge’s future success, therefore, depends in large part on the continued services of a number of its key personnel, including its Chief Executive Officer, Rory J. Cowan. The loss of the services of Mr. Cowan or any of Lionbridge’s other key personnel could seriously impede its success. Lionbridge might not be able to prevent key personnel, who may leave its employ in the future, from disclosing or using its technical knowledge, practices or procedures. One or more of Lionbridge’s key personnel might resign and join a competitor or form a competing company. As a result, Lionbridge might lose existing or potential clients.
 
Lionbridge competes in a highly competitive market that has low barriers to entry.
 
The market for Lionbridge’s services is very competitive and faces many competitors. Lionbridge cannot assure you that it will compete successfully against these competitors in the future. Some of these companies have longer operating histories, significantly greater resources, and greater name recognition than Lionbridge. If Lionbridge fails to be competitive with these companies in the future, it may lose market share and its revenue could decline.
 
There are relatively few barriers preventing companies from competing with Lionbridge. Although Lionbridge owns proprietary technology, Lionbridge does not own any patented or other technology that precludes or inhibits others from entering its market. As a result, new market entrants also pose a threat to its business. In addition to Lionbridge’s existing competitors, Lionbridge may face further competition in the future from companies that do not currently offer globalization services. Technology companies, Web consulting firms,

25


Table of Contents
technical support call centers, hosting companies, and content management providers may choose to broaden their range of services to include globalization as they expand their operations internationally. Lionbridge cannot assure you that it will be able to compete effectively with potential future competitors.
 
Lionbridge will continue to depend on intellectual property rights to protect its proprietary technologies, although it may not be able to protect these rights.
 
Lionbridge relies on its proprietary technology to deploy some of its service offerings. Lionbridge’s policy is to enter into confidentiality agreements with its employees, outside consultants, and independent contractors. Lionbridge also uses patent, trademark, trade secret, and copyright law in addition to contractual restrictions to protect its technology. Notwithstanding these precautions, it may be possible for a third party to obtain and use Lionbridge’s proprietary technology without authorization. Although Lionbridge holds registered or pending United States patents and foreign patents covering certain aspects of its technology, it cannot be sure of the level of protection that these patents will provide. Lionbridge may have to resort to litigation to enforce its intellectual property rights, to protect trade secrets or know-how, or to determine their scope, validity or enforceability. Enforcing or defending its proprietary technology is expensive, could cause diversion of Lionbridge’s resources and may not prove successful. The laws of other countries may afford Lionbridge little or no effective protection of its intellectual property rights.
 
 
Lionbridge is exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Lionbridge does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
 
Interest Rate Risk.    Lionbridge is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates with respect to its line of credit with a commercial bank. There was $8.6 million outstanding as of December 31, 2001 under this facility. A hypothetical increase of 1% in the variable rate used as the basis for the interest charged on the line of credit in the year ended December 31, 2001 would result in an estimated $86,000 increase in annualized interest expense, assuming a constant outstanding balance of $8.6 million. Lionbridge is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates through its investing activities. In addition, Lionbridge’s ability to finance future acquisition transactions may be impacted if it is unable to obtain appropriate financing at acceptable rates. Lionbridge’s investment portfolio consists primarily of investments in high-grade commercial bank money market accounts. A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in interest rates would not have a material impact on the carrying value of Lionbridge’s investments due to their immediate available liquidity or their short maturity.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Losses.    The majority of Lionbridge’s contracts with clients are denominated in U.S. dollars. However, 39% and 36% of its costs and expenses in 2001 and 2000, respectively, were denominated in foreign currencies. Thirty-five percent and 41% of its assets were recorded in foreign currencies as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Seventeen percent and 22% of its liabilities were recorded in foreign currencies as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Therefore, Lionbridge is exposed to foreign currency exchange risks. Lionbridge has not historically tried to reduce its exposure to exchange rate fluctuations by using hedging transactions. However, it may choose to do so in the future. There are no assurances that Lionbridge may be able to do this successfully. Accordingly, Lionbridge may experience economic loss and a negative impact on earnings and equity as a result of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Lionbridge Technologies, Inc.:
 
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, redeemable preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lionbridge Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of INT’L.com, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, for the year ended December 31, 1999, which statements reflect total revenues of $34,902,000. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for INT’L.com, Inc., is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have audited the consolidated balance sheet, as restated, of INT’L.com, Inc. and Subsidiaries (a Delaware corporation formerly know as IC Global Services, Inc.) as of December 31, 1999, and the related consolidated statements of operations, redeemable preferred stock, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and comprehensive loss and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1999. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of INT’L.com, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

In addition, as more fully described in Note 4, on May 22, 2000, Lionbridge completed its acquisition of all of the capital stock of INT’L.com, Inc. (“INT’L.com”) by means of a merger. As a result of the merger, INT’L.com became a wholly owned subsidiary of Lionbridge. These transactions are referred herein as the “mergers”. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared following the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for the mergers and therefore reflect the combined financial position, operating results and cash flows of Lionbridge, Harvard Translations and INT’L.com as if they had been combined for all periods.
 
The Company anticipates that its exisiting capital resources, including the expected extension of its line of credit, and cash flows from operations will be adequate to satisfy its capital requirements for at least one year from the balance sheet date. To the extent that capital resources are less than expected or operating objectives are not achieved, management is committed to pursuing alternative financing arrangements or reducing expenditures as necessary to meet its cash requirements throughout 2002. However, there is no assurance that, if required, the Company will be able to raise additional capital or reduce certain discretionary spending to provide adequate liquidity.
 
2.    Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Lionbridge reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described below:
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lionbridge and its wholly owned subsidiaries from the effective date of their acquisition or formation. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Lionbridge recognizes revenue from the provision of services to its customers primarily on the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, based on all costs incurred to date as a percentage of management’s estimate of total costs of individual projects. Anticipated losses by project, if any, are recognized in the period in which determined.
 
Advertising Costs
 
Advertising costs are included in sales and marketing expenses and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were approximately $282,000, $230,000 and $281,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
The functional currency for each of Lionbridge’s foreign operations is the local currency of the country in which those operations are based. Revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average rates of exchange during the year. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

dollars at year-end rates of exchange. Resulting cumulative translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity (deficit). Foreign currency transaction gains or losses, arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies, are included in other (income) expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations and were $838,000, $714,000 and $356,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
 
For the purpose of the disclosure of comprehensive loss, Lionbridge does not record tax provisions or benefits for the net changes in foreign currency translation adjustments, as Lionbridge intends to permanently reinvest undistributed earnings in its foreign subsidiaries.
 
Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Included in cash equivalents at December 31, 2001 and 2000 are funds held in money market accounts.
 
Work in Process
 
Work in process represents the value of work performed but not yet billed. Work in process is calculated using the percentage-of-completion method based on total anticipated costs and is stated at cost plus estimated profit, but not in excess of net realizable value. Billing of amounts in work in process occurs according to customer-agreed payment schedules or upon completion of specified project milestones. All of Lionbridge’s projects in work in process are expected to be billed and collected within one year.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method, based upon the following asset lives:
 
Computer software and equipment
  
1 to 5 years
Furniture and office equipment
  
3 to 7 years
Leasehold improvements
  
Shorter of lease term or useful life of asset
 
Upon retirement or other disposition, the cost and related accumulated depreciation of the assets are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in the determination of net income or loss. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
 
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is amortized using the straight-line method over five years. Other intangible assets arose from the acquisitions of VeriTest, Inc. (“VeriTest”) and International Language Engineering Corporation (“ILE”), and consist of the following, which have been or are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:
 
    
Estimated
Useful
Life

VeriTest:
    
Acquired workforce
  
5 years
Trade name
  
5 years
ILE:
    
Installed customer base
  
5 years
Acquired workforce
  
2 years
Completed technology
  
3 years
 
Long-Lived Assets
 
Lionbridge periodically evaluates the net realizable value of its long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets and property and equipment, relying on a number of factors including operating results, business plans, economic projections and anticipated future cash flows. An impairment in the carrying value of an asset is assessed when the undiscounted, expected future operating cash flows derived from the asset are less than its carrying value.
 
Income Taxes
 
Deferred income taxes are recognized based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
 
Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. There is no difference between basic and diluted earnings per share since potential common shares from the conversion of preferred stock and exercises of stock options and warrants are anti-dilutive for all periods presented.
 
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
 
Lionbridge accounts for stock-based awards to employees using the intrinsic value method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. Accordingly, no compensation expense is recorded for options issued to employees in fixed amounts and with fixed exercise prices at least equal to the fair market value of Lionbridge’s common stock at the date of grant. When the exercise price of stock options granted to employees is less than the fair market value

F-11


Table of Contents

LIONBRIDGE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

of common stock at the date of grant, Lionbridge records that difference multiplied by the number of shares under option as deferred compensation, which is then amortized over the vesting period of the options. Lionbridge has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” through disclosure only (see Note 8). All stock-based awards to non-employees are accounted for at their fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and related guidance.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for the collectibility of receivables, calculating revenue using the percentage-of-completion method, and valuing intangible assets, deferred tax assets and net assets of businesses acquired.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Significant Customers
 
Financial instruments which potentially subject Lionbridge to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions with high credit standing. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are limited due to the dispersion of customers across different geographic regions. Lionbridge does not require collateral or other security against trade receivable balances; however, it maintains reserves for potential credit losses and such losses have been within management’s expectations.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt, are carried in the consolidated financial statements at amounts that approximate fair values at December 31, 2001 and 2000. Fair values are based on quoted market prices and assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates, reflecting varying degrees of perceived risk.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period financial statement presentation.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under the purchase method only and that certain acquired intangible assets in a business combination be recognized as assets apart from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires that ratable amortization of goodwill be replaced with periodic tests of the goodwill’s impairment and that intangible assets other than goodwill generally be amortized over their useful lives. In addition, SFAS No. 142 includes provisions for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the identification of reporting units for purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill. SFAS No. 142 also requires the Company to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test within six months from the

date of adoption. Application of the non-amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142 for goodwill is expected to result in an increase in operating income of approximately $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. At December 31, 2001, the Company had goodwill of approximately $13.6 million. Pursuant to SFAS No. 142, the Company will test its goodwill for impairment upon adoption and, if impairment is indicated, record such impairment as a cumulative effect of an accounting change. SFAS No. 141 is effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for all business combinations accounted for by the purchase method for which the date of acquisition is after June 30, 2001. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and thus will be adopted by the Company, as required, on January 1, 2002. Lionbridge has not yet determined whether it will be required to record an impairment of its goodwill in 2002.
 
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of.” SFAS No. 144 applies to all long-lived assets (including discontinued operations) and consequently amends Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, “Reporting Results of Operations—Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and thus will be adopted by the Company, as required, on January 1, 2002. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 144 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

5.    Business Acquisitions:
 
VeriTest, Inc.
 
On January 11, 1999, Lionbridge entered into an agreement to acquire all of the stock of VeriTest, a company based in California, for total initial consideration of $4,354,000, consisting of cash of $3,260,000, 66,668 shares of common stock valued at $344,000, and notes payable for $750,000. The agreement also required certain contingent cash payments, limited to $1,000,000, dependent on future operating performance through December 31, 2000. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and results of VeriTest are included in the accompanying financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase price, including direct costs of the acquisition, was allocated based on the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed as follows:
 
Current assets
  
$
522,000
 
Property and equipment

The initial calculation of goodwill did not include any contingent consideration. Additional goodwill of $900,000 was subsequently recorded through December 31, 2000 in connection with incremental payments being due under the terms of the original agreement, with $400,000 paid in 2000 and $500,000 paid in 2001.

Motus!
 
At December 31, 1998, Lionbridge’s wholly owned subsidiary, INT’L.com, had a 32.8% equity investment in Motus!, a French-based provider of localization and translation services. This investment was accounted for using the equity method. On September 30, 1999, INT’L.com acquired the remaining equity interest in Motus! For $124,000 in cash and 4,540 options to purchase common stock of the Company valued at $20,000. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and the results of Motus! have been included in the accompanying financial statements as of the date of the acquisition. The purchase price, including direct costs of the acquisition, was allocated based on the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed as follows:

Language Services Operations of Nortel
 
On January 17, 2000, Lionbridge acquired certain assets of the language services operation of Nortel Networks Corporation (“Nortel”) in Montreal and Ottawa, Canada; Beijing, China; Sao Paulo, Brazil; Sunrise, Florida; and Bogota, Colombia for cash of $2,476,000. In connection with the purchase, Nortel awarded a preferred vendor designation to Lionbridge as part of a three-year services agreement, under which Lionbridge

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

will provide a full range of translation and localization services for Nortel. The purchase agreement provides for certain contingent payments to be made by Lionbridge, dependent on the level of revenues generated under the services agreement over the three-year period. No such contingent payments were due as a result of revenues generated in 2001 or 2000. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and results of the operations acquired are included in the accompanying financial statements from the date of the asset purchase. The purchase price was allocated based on the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed as follows:
 
Current assets

Property and equipment
  
 
140,000

The initial calculation of goodwill did not include any contingent consideration. Future payments, if any, under the contingent payment arrangement will increase goodwill. In 2001, the employees acquired as part of the transaction were terminated due to the closure of the Montreal and Florida offices. As a result, the unamortized balance of $264,000 attributable to the acquired workforce was written off. Pro forma statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 would not differ materially from reported results.
 
Quality Group Labs, Inc.
 
On January 2, 2001, Lionbridge acquired Quality Group Labs, Inc. (“Quality Group Labs”), a company based in Massachusetts, for total initial consideration of $250,000 in cash and 74,488 shares of Lionbridge common stock valued at $233,000. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and the results of Quality Group Labs are included in the accompanying financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase price was allocated based on the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed as follows:
 
Property and equipment
  
$
50,000
Goodwill
  
 
433,000

Pro forma statements of operations would not differ materially from reported results. Additional goodwill of $160,000 was subsequently recorded in 2002 in connection with incremental stock issuances of 60,000 shares of Lionbridge common stock made under the terms of the original agreement. The agreement does not provide for any further consideration.
 
Data Dimensions, Inc.
 
On June 21, 2001, Lionbridge acquired Data Dimensions, Inc. (“Data Dimensions”), a company based in Washington with operations in the United States, Ireland and the United Kingdom, by means of a merger. Upon the effective date of the merger, each outstanding share of Data Dimensions common stock was converted into the right to receive 0.190884 shares of Lionbridge common stock. As a result of the merger, Lionbridge issued an

aggregate of 2,588,316 shares of Lionbridge common stock valued at $12,652,000. Upon the completion of the merger, all outstanding options and warrants to purchase common stock of Data Dimensions, with a fair value at that time of $1,179,000, were assumed by Lionbridge and converted into options and warrants to purchase 451,860 shares of common stock of Lionbridge under similar terms. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and the results of Data Dimensions are included in the accompanying financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase price, including direct costs of acquisition, has been allocated based on the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed as follows:

Amortization of Goodwill
 
The expense of amortizing goodwill related to all acquisitions was $5,600,000, $4,965,000, and $4,957,000 in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Additionally, amortization of $1,051,000, $1,538,000 and $1,156,000 was recorded in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, in connection with other intangible assets acquired.

Lines of Credit
 
On June 28, 2001, Lionbridge entered into a new line of credit agreement with a commercial bank. Under the terms of the agreement, Lionbridge is able to borrow up to $13,000,000, based on the value of certain current assets worldwide. The interest rate payable on any outstanding borrowings is prime plus 2.0% per year (6.75% at December 31, 2001). The line expires on June 27, 2002. Borrowings outstanding under the line of credit agreement are collateralized by certain assets of Lionbridge. The amount outstanding on the line of credit at December 31, 2001 was $8,551,000. The agreement requires Lionbridge to comply with various covenants, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios and restrictions on the payment of dividends. In conjunction with the new line of credit, Lionbridge issued a warrant to the commercial bank for the purchase of 75,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.81 per share, valued at $115,000. This amount has been treated as a deferred financing cost and will be amortized through interest expense over the original life of the agreement. The new line of credit replaces Lionbridge’s prior line of credit agreements with the same commercial bank. At December 31, 2000, $10,273,000 was outstanding under the prior lending arrangements at interest rates ranging from 9.5% to 10.5% per year.
 
Notes Payable to Stockholders
 
On August 13, 1998, as part of a cash and stock dividend to the INT’L.com stockholders on record as of that date, subordinated promissory notes to stockholders in the aggregate amount of $3,500,000 were issued. The notes bear interest at 6% per year for the first year of the term of the notes, and the interest rate increases by 1% for each successive year of the term of the notes. One half of the interest accruing in each semi-annual period is payable semi-annually on January 1 and June 30 during the term of the notes and the remaining interest is payable upon the maturity of the notes. The principal amount of the notes, together with any accrued but unpaid interest, is payable in April 2005.
 
On January 11, 1999, Lionbridge entered into two substantially identical promissory note agreements with the former owners of VeriTest in connection with the acquisition of this business (see Note 5). The notes were for an aggregate amount of $750,000, bore interest at an annual rate of 8% and were payable in one installment on January 11, 2001. The notes and all accrued interest thereon were paid in full in January 2001.
 
On April 9, 1999, Lionbridge’s wholly owned subsidiary, INT’L.com, assumed ILE’s obligation under a promissory note to a former ILE stockholder in the amount of $3,250,000 as part of the acquisition of ILE. The promissory note accrues interest at 8.5% per year and matures June 27, 2002. The promissory note is subordinate to all indebtedness owed by INT’L.com to any bank, pension fund, insurance fund or other financial institutions.
 
Subordinated Debt
 
In 1999, Lionbridge entered into two subordinated debt agreements pursuant to which 12% senior subordinated notes were issued. The outstanding aggregate principal amount of such notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, was required to repaid upon the earlier of January 31, 2002 or an underwritten public offering by Lionbridge with aggregate proceeds of at least $10,000,000. In December 2001, the subordinated debt agreements were amended to extend the maturity date of the notes to April 15, 2002. The notes are subject to certain covenant restrictions, including maintenance of certain financial ratios, and are collateralized by certain assets of Lionbridge. The terms of the subordinated debt agreements prohibit Lionbridge from paying dividends to its stockholders. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, $5,981,000 was outstanding under these subordinated notes. In connection with the issuance of these notes, Lionbridge issued detachable warrants to purchase 1,533,260 shares of common stock at a price of $0.015 per share, valued at $5,967,000. These warrants were exercised in full in 1999. The aggregate value of the warrants issued in connection with these financings was recorded as a discount on subordinated notes payable and was amortized as additional

interest expense using the straight-line method over the period from issuance until August 1999, based on the initially expected repayment of the debt upon the initial public offering of securities by Lionbridge.
 
On June 29, 2001, Lionbridge entered into a subordinated debt agreement pursuant to which a 12% promissory note in the amount of $5,000,000 was issued. The principal under the note was initially due on October 31, 2001, with interest payable quarterly in arrears. However, as a result of terms included in the original subordinated debt agreement, on October 31, 2001, the note automatically converted into a new note with essentially identical terms but with a principal amount of $8,000,000. The new note is due on September 30, 2006, with interest payable quarterly in arrears at 12% per year. In connection with the issuance of the $5,000,000 note, Lionbridge issued a warrant to purchase up to 900,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.80 per share. The fair value ascribed to this warrant was $738,000 and was recorded as a discount on subordinated notes payable and was amortized to interest expense through October 31, 2001, the date of originally expected repayment. The note is subject to certain covenant restrictions and the terms of the subordinated debt agreement restricts Lionbridge from paying dividends to its stockholders. The $3,000,000 discount on the new note is being accreted through interest expense on a straight-line basis over the period from November 1, 2001 to September 30, 2006. Accretion of $101,000 was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2001.
 
Equipment Financing Facility
 
On February 25, 2000, Lionbridge entered into a equipment financing arrangement whereby it may borrow an aggregate of $1,350,000 to fund equipment purchases. Advances under the arrangement are collateralized by certain fixed assets and are payable in monthly installments with interest through September 2003. Borrowings under the notes totaled $535,000 and $848,000 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and bear interest at rates ranging from 15.6% to 16.3%.
 
Convertible Promissory Notes to Stockholders
 
In August 1999, Lionbridge’s wholly owned subsidiary, INT’L.com, received $2,000,000 through the issuance of convertible promissory notes to existing investors. The convertible notes accrued interest at 10% per year and were due to mature in August 2001. The convertible promissory notes were subordinate to the INT’L.com line of credit. The outstanding principal and accrued interest were convertible at the option of the lenders into shares of INT’L.com equity securities. The notes and all accrued interest thereon were paid in full upon the closing of the merger (see Note 4). As additional consideration to the investors, INT’L.com issued warrants to purchase 56,753 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.45 per share. The warrants were exercised in full in May 2000 by means of a cashless exercise, resulting in the issuance of 49,547 shares of Lionbridge common stock.

Total rental expense charged to operations was $4,615,000, $4,729,000, and $3,115,000 in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.
 
8.    Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit):
 
Private Placements of Common Stock
 
In June 2000, Lionbridge issued 1,500,000 shares of its common stock at $8.50 per share in a private placement for total consideration received of approximately $12.8 million before expenses. These shares were subsequently registered in a Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in September 2000.
 
In August 2001, Lionbridge sold 460,000 shares of its common stock at $0.55 per share, the then fair market value, to its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer for aggregate consideration of $253,000 in a private placement.
 
Reverse Stock Split
 
Effective August 13, 1999, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a 2-for-3 reverse common stock split. All references in these consolidated financial statements to shares of common stock have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.
 
Deferred Compensation
 
During the year ended December 31, 1999, Lionbridge recorded deferred compensation in connection with options granted at exercise prices below the then fair market value of Lionbridge’s common stock totaling $3,803,000, representing the aggregate difference between the estimated fair market value of Lionbridge’s common stock on the date of grant and the exercise price of each option. This deferred compensation is being amortized over the four-year vesting period of the related options, resulting in amortization of $565,000, $799,000 and $730,000 in the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Additionally, $484,000, $348,000 and $236,000 of deferred compensation has been reversed due to cancellation of the underlying options in the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
 
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
 
On June 15, 1999, the Board of Directors adopted the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”), effective upon the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering. The Purchase Plan is a qualified employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Purchase Plan allows for the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of Lionbridge’s common stock to eligible employees. Under the Purchase Plan, Lionbridge is authorized to make a series of offerings during which employees may purchase shares of common stock through payroll deductions made over the term of the offering. The per-share purchase price at the end of each offering is equal to 85% of the fair market value of the common stock at the beginning or end of the offering period (as defined by the Purchase Plan), whichever is lower. The Company issued 73,763 and 31,228 shares of common stock during 2001 and 2000, respectively, pursuant to the Purchase Plan at a weighted-average price per share of $1.55 and $9.08, respectively.
 
Stock Option Plans
 
Lionbridge maintains a stock option plan (the “Plan”) for the issuance of incentive and nonqualified stock options. As amended through October 2000, the maximum number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Plan is 8,522,032 shares. Options to purchase common stock are granted at the discretion of

F-20


Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

the Board of Directors. Generally, stock options vest over a four-year period as follows: 25% on the first anniversary of the date of grant and semi-annually thereafter in equal installments over the remaining three-year period. Stock options generally expire ten years (five years in certain cases) from the date of grant.
 
Under the terms of the Plan, the exercise price of incentive stock options granted must not be less than 100% (110% in certain cases) of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant, as determined by the Board of Directors. The exercise price of nonqualified stock options may be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant, as determined by the Board of Directors, but in no case may the exercise price be less than the statutory minimum. Prior to the Company’s initial public offering of securities, the Board of Directors, in assessing the fair market value of Lionbridge’s common stock, considered factors relevant at the time, including recent third-party transactions, significant new customers, composition of the management team, recent hiring results, Lionbridge’s financial condition and operating results and the lack of a public market for Lionbridge’s common stock.
 
Harvard Translations and INT’L.com also maintained stock option plans which were assumed by Lionbridge and provided for grants of options to officers, consultants and employees that expire ten years (five years in certain cases) from date of grant. The stock option grants generally vest over four to five years except for certain options that have acceleration clauses effective upon certain circumstances including a change of ownership or control. Upon the mergers of Harvard Translations and INT’L.com, Lionbridge assumed options for the purchase of 742,584 shares of common stock. No further options will be granted under these plans.
 
Data Dimensions maintained stock option plans which provided for grants to employees and directors that generally expire in five years from the date of grant. The stock options generally vest over four years. Upon the acquisition of Data Dimensions, Lionbridge assumed options for the purchase of 408,911 shares of Lionbridge common stock. No further options will be granted under these plans.

Had compensation cost for stock options granted to employees been determined based on the fair value at the date of grant consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Lionbridge’s net loss for 2001, 2000 and 1999 would have been increased to $28,498,000, $23,179,000, and $33,955,000, respectively, and the net loss per common share attributable to common stockholders for 2001, 2000 and 1999 would have been increased to $0.97, $1.08, and $3.14, respectively. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during 2001 and 2000 was $1.89 and $6.64 per share, respectively. The estimated weighted-average fair value of Lionbridge, Harvard Translations and INT’L.com options granted during 1999 was $3.04, $3.55 and $0.83, respectively. Stock options granted with an exercise price in the range from $1.50 through $9.75 per share have an exercise price which exceeded the fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. The weighted average fair value of these options, which were all granted in 1999, was $2.18 per share.
 
The fair value of each option was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following assumptions were used for options granted: (i) weighted-average risk free interest rates of 4.8%, 6.4%, and 5.3% to 6.0% for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, (ii) weighted-average expected option

lives of 4.0 years for each of 2000 and 2001 and 4.0 to 10.0 years for 1999, (iii) no expected dividend yield, and (iv) an expected volatility factor of 94.0% for 2001, 85.0% for 2000, and 85.0% for the period since Lionbridge’s initial public offering of securities in August 1999 through December 31, 1999.

The benefit from the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in Europe during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 was recorded as a reduction of goodwill of $15,000, $243,000 and $519,000, respectively, rather than a tax provision benefit, since the deferred tax assets associated with these carryforwards had been fully reserved at the time of the original acquisition of the businesses in 1996.

Management of Lionbridge has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets. Under the applicable accounting standards, management has considered Lionbridge’s history of losses and concluded that it is not certain that Lionbridge will generate future taxable income prior to

F-23

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

the expiration of these net operating losses. Accordingly, the deferred tax assets have been fully reserved. Management reevaluates the positive and negative evidence periodically.
 
At December 31, 2001, Lionbridge had net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes of approximately $53,000,000 that may be used to offset future taxable income, which begin to expire in 2012. Of this amount, $1,078,000 relates to deductions from the exercise of stock options. The future benefit from these deductions will be recorded as a credit to additional paid-in capital when realized. The Company has federal research and development tax credits which may be used to offset future income tax of approximately $180,000, which expire in 2019. Additionally, Lionbridge has net operating loss carryforwards in France of approximately $2,078,000, which begin to expire in 2003; net operating loss carryforwards in Japan of approximately $2,297,000, which begin to expire in 2003; net operating loss carryforwards in Canada of approximately $2,808,000, which begin to expire in 2007; net operating loss carryforwards in Germany of approximately $1,004,000, which may be carried forward indefinitely; and net operating loss carryforwards in The Netherlands of approximately $8,370,000, which may be carried forward indefinitely.
 
Under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, certain substantial changes in Lionbridge’s ownership may limit in the future the amount of net operating loss carryforwards which could be used annually to offset future taxable income and income tax liability.

During the year ended December 31, 2001, Lionbridge recorded a net merger credit of $20,000 in operating expenses. This amount consists primarily of fees for professional services incurred in connection with Lionbridge’s attempted acquisition of Mendez S.A., offset by the receipt of a $1.0 million fee from the successful bidder for Mendez S.A.
 
Restructuring charges of $2,537,000 were recorded in the year ended December 31, 2001. These charges relate to: (i) the costs of consolidating Lionbridge facilities in the United States as a result of the acquisition of Data Dimensions, consisting primarily of accruals for lease payments on vacant office space, and (ii) costs associated with workforce reductions in the United States, Canada, Brazil, Japan, China, Korea, Germany, Ireland, The Netherlands, the United Kingdom and France, consisting of 154 technical staff, 26 sales and marketing staff and 50 administrative staff. All employees had been informed of their termination and related benefits in the period that the charge was recorded. The restructuring charge for the year ended December 31, 2001 is presented net of a $66,000 reversal of a charge recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2001 due to subsequent events which reduced the amount of benefits paid on behalf of a terminated employee.
 
Impairment charges for long-lived assets for the year ended December 31, 2001 of $336,000 relate primarily to the write-off of acquired workforce and software licenses as a result of the closure of the Company’s office in Montreal, Canada during the second quarter of 2001.

Merger costs for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $2,465,000 consist of fees for investment banking, legal and accounting services and other direct costs incurred in connection with Lionbridge’s mergers with Harvard Translations and INT’L.com.
 
Restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $915,000 relate to: (i) the costs of closing facilities in the United States, France and The Netherlands as a result of the merger with INT’L.com, consisting primarily of accruals for lease payments on vacant office space, and (ii) costs associated with workforce reductions in Canada, the United States and France, consisting of six technical staff and three administrative staff. All employees had been informed of their termination and related benefits in the period that the charge was recorded. The restructuring charge for the year ended December 31, 2000 is presented net of a $162,000 reversal of a charge recorded in the second quarter of 2000, due to subsequent events which have reduced the potential loss on vacant office space.
 
Impairment charges for long-lived assets for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $886,000 relate to the write-off of property and equipment, primarily consisting of previously capitalized licenses for software, that was abandoned as a result of Lionbridge’s merger with INT’L.com.
 
Restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 1999 of $1,197,000 consist of charges related to workforce reductions in INT’L.com’s United States operating sites, consisting of 36 technical staff, 14 administrative staff and four sales staff.
 
At December 31, 2001, accruals totaling $364,000 related to restructuring charges, in addition to accruals of $2,078,000 related to restructuring charges which were assumed upon the acquisition of Data Dimensions, remained on the consolidated balance sheet. Lionbridge currently anticipates that all merger and restructuring accrual balances will be fully utilized by December 31, 2002, except for certain long-term contractual obligations relating to leases for facilities, $648,000 of which related to long-term lease obligations on unused facilities and is included in Other Long-term liabilities.
 
During the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company utilized $917,000 and $2,465,000, respectively, of accruals related to merger costs and $3,800,000 and $712,000, respectively, related to restructuring charges.
 
11.    Employee Benefit Plans:
 
Lionbridge maintains an employee benefit plan qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. All U.S. employees may participate in the 401(k) plan subject to certain eligibility requirements. Under the 401(k) plan, a participant may contribute a maximum of 15% of his or her pre-tax salary, commissions and bonuses through payroll deductions (up to the statutorily prescribed annual limit—$10,500 in 2001) to the 401(k) plan. The percentage elected by more highly compensated participants may be required to be lower. In addition, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, Lionbridge may make discretionary profit-sharing contributions into the 401(k) plan for all eligible employees. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, discretionary contributions totaled approximately $315,000, $0 and $0, respectively. In addition, as of December 31, 2001, the Company maintained defined benefit pension plans for employees in The Netherlands and France, and a defined contribution scheme for employees in Ireland. Total benefit plan contributions charged to operations were $407,000, $361,000 and $416,000 in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
 
Harvard Translations, INT’L.com, and Data Dimensions maintained 401(k) retirement plans for employees meeting certain age and service requirements. The plans provided for voluntary employee contributions from their annual compensation as well as matching contributions by Harvard Translations, INT’L.com or Data Dimensions. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, matching contributions totaled approximately $0, $51,000, and $87,000, respectively. These plans are in the process of being terminated and the assets of the Harvard Translations and INT’L.com plans will be transferred to the Lionbridge 401(k) plan. Assets of the Data Dimensions plan are in the process of being refunded to the participating employees.

12.    Operating Segment and Geographical Information:
 
Lionbridge has determined that its operating segments are those that are based on its method of internal reporting, which separately presents its business by the geographic site in which services are performed. Lionbridge has combined those segments which meet the aggregation criteria of SFAS No. 131 in determining its reportable segments.
 
The Company’s reportable segments are Localization and Testing. The Localization segment provides product localization and content globalization services that enable simultaneous worldwide release and ongoing maintenance of products and related technical support, training materials, and sales and marketing information in multiple languages. The Testing segment provides comprehensive testing of software, hardware and Web sites, as well as product certification programs. Application and development services as well as all other unallocated enterprise costs are reflected in the “Corporate and Other” category.
 
The table below presents information about the reported net loss of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999. Asset information by reportable segment is not reported, since the Company does not produce such information internally.

15.    Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders:
 
Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders does not differ from basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders since potential common shares from the conversion of preferred stock and the exercise of stock options and warrants are anti-dilutive for all years presented and are therefore excluded from the calculation. Preferred stock convertible into 0, 0 and 2,639,766 shares of common stock, options to purchase 5,734,434, 3,836,055 and 3,251,369 shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase 524,275, 0 and 347,084 shares of common stock outstanding were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively .
 
16.    Subsequent Events:
 
In March 2002, the commercial bank which holds the Company’s line of credit indicated in a letter to Lionbridge its intention to extend the credit facility through April 1, 2003. As a result, the amount outstanding under this line of credit of $8,551,000 has been classified as a long-term liability on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001.
 
In March 2002, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York entered an order dismissing without prejudice the claims against Lionbridge and its officers and directors in a certain securities class action lawsuit filed in July 2001. The complaint in this action asserted, among other things, that Lionbridge’s initial public offering prospectus and registration statement contained material misrepresentations and/or omissions regarding the conduct of Lionbridge’s initial public offering underwriters in allocating shares in Lionbridge’s initial public offering to the underwriters’ customers. In connection with this dismissal, Lionbridge and the individual defendants have agreed to extend the duration of applicable limitations periods as to such claims until December 31, 2002.
 
In March 2002, Nasdaq notified Lionbridge that Lionbridge’s common stock may be subject to delisting from the Nasdaq National Market due to Lionbridge’s noncompliance with listing standards that require Lionbridge to maintain either (i) minimum stockhoders’ equity of at least $10,000,000 or (ii) a minimum bid price of $3.00 per share (regardless of the amount of Lionbridge’s stockholders’ equity). Lionbridge has until June 17, 2002 to regain compliance with either standard.

Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, ------------------------- and Tenant hereby hires from Landlord, the Demised Premises. 2.2 Term. The term of this Lease will be for the term specified ---- in Section 1.9 and will commence on the Commencement Date set forth in Section 1.9. 2.3 Common Areas. The portions of the Project designated by ------------ Landlord from time to time for the common use of all tenants, including, hallways, restrooms, stairs, entrances, sidewalks, parking, loading areas, curbs, landscaping and other improvements, will constitute the "Common Area." The Common Area will be operated and maintained in such a manner consistent with similar buildings in the City of Boulder, Colorado. The Landlord reserves the right to reconfigure or change the Common Area and to close portions of the Common Area from time to time for repairs, to prevent accrual of public rights therein, or for any other purpose. In connection therewith, Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant's use of the Demised Premises and the Common Area. Landlord will have the right to assign parking spaces to specific tenants and to restrict parking areas to customer parking only. Tenant and its employees, customers and invitees will have a non-exclusive right to use the Common Area as it exists from time to time with other tenants and any other persons permitted by Landlord to use the same, subject to any rules and regulations governing use of the Common Area which Landlord may prescribe. Except in the event of emergency, Tenant may have access to the Demised Premises at all times. 2.4 Delay in Commencement. If, for any reason, Landlord cannot --------------------- deliver possession of the Demised Premises to Tenant on the Commencement Date, Landlord will not be liable to Tenant for such failure, but in such case subject to the last paragraph of Paragraph 31 of the Addendum Tenant will not be obligated to pay rent or any other charges pursuant to this Lease until possession is delivered to Tenant. If Tenant, with the prior written consent of Landlord, occupies the Demised Premises prior to the Commencement Date, such occupancy will be subject to the terms hereof but will not advance the termination date, and Tenant will pay Minimum Rent and Additional Rent commencing with the date of such occupancy, but such occupancy will not cause Tenant to pay rent prior to March 1, 2002. 2.5 Condition of Demised Premises. Neither Landlord nor ----------------------------- Landlord's agents have made any representations or promises with respect to the Building, the Project, or the Demised Premises except as expressly set forth in this Lease. The rentable area in the Demised Premises and the Building and Project will be measured and calculated in Landlord's standard manner; provided, however, no remeasurement will affect the Minimum Rent or Tenant's Percentage under this Lease. The taking of possession of the Demised Premises by Tenant will be conclusive evidence, as against Tenant, that Tenant accepts the same "as is" in their condition existing as of the Commencement Date, and that the Demised Premises were in good and satisfactory order, condition 4 and repair at the time such possession was so taken. As of the Commencement Date, all Building systems are in operational order. 2.6 Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants and agrees with Tenant --------------- that, upon Tenant's payment of rent and observance and performance of all of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease on Tenant's part to be observed or performed, Tenant will have quiet possession of the Demised Premises for the term aforesaid, subject, however, to the terms of this Lease and of any ground leases, underlying leases, mortgages and deeds of trust affecting all or any portion of the Building or the Project. ARTICLE 3 (Rent) 3.1 Rent. Tenant will pay Landlord the Minimum Rent specified in ---- Section 1.11 on the first day of each calendar month during the term of this Lease in lawful money of the United States in equal monthly installments without notice or demand in advance at the address of Landlord specified in Section 1.14 or such other place as Landlord may designate with notice to Tenant, without any set off or deduction whatsoever. Installments of Minimum Rent for the first and last months of the term hereof will be prorated based upon the number of days during each of said months that the Lease is in effect. 3.2 [Intentionally omitted.] 3.3 [Intentionally omitted.] 3.4 Interest on Delinquent Rent. The time of payment of Minimum --------------------------- Rent, Additional Rent and any other amounts due hereunder is of the essence in this Lease. In addition to all other remedies available to Landlord, all sums payable hereunder will bear interest at an annual rate equal to 4% over the prime rate of interest announced publicly by Wells Fargo Bank, Denver, Colorado (or any successor to that bank) from time to time (but in no event in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted by law) after the due date until paid in full, but the payment of such interest will not excuse or cure any default by Tenant under this Lease. Failure to collect or charge interest in connection with any one or more delinquent payments will not constitute a waiver of Landlord's right to charge or collect interest in connection with any other or similar payment. 3.5 Late Charge. In the event Tenant fails to pay Minimum Rent, ----------- Additional Rent or any other amount due hereunder within 10 days after the date such payment is due, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord will incur additional administrative expenses, the amount of which will be difficult, if not impossible, to determine. Accordingly, Landlord will be entitled to assess Tenant a one-time late charge of five percent (5%) of the amount of the payment for each delinquent payment. 5 ARTICLE 4 (Operating Costs) 4.1 Payment of Costs. In addition to Minimum Rent adjusted as ---------------- provided in Article 3, beginning on the Commencement Date, Tenant will pay as Additional Rent Tenant's Percentage of Operating Costs paid, payable or incurred by Landlord in each calendar year or partial calendar year during the term of this Lease and any renewal period. 4.2 Definition. As used in this Lease, the term "Operating Costs" ---------- means the sum of all costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature incurred in managing, operating, maintaining, administering, over-hauling and repairing the Project, in respect of a calendar year, including, but not limited to, the following: (a) Taxes and assessments upon or with respect to the Project and the areas used in connection with the operation of the Project, imposed by federal, state or local governments, but not including income, franchise, capital stock, estate or inheritance taxes, but including gross receipts taxes regarding rentals and other payments under this Lease and other business taxes imposed regarding this Lease. If, because of any change in the method of taxation of real estate, any tax or assessment is imposed upon Landlord, the Project, the areas used in connection with the operation of the Project, or upon or with respect to the land, or the rents or income therefrom, in substitution for or in lieu of any tax or assessment which would otherwise be a real estate tax or assessment subject matter, such other tax or assessment will be included in the determination of Operating Costs; and (b) Wage and labor costs applicable to the persons engaged in the management, operation, maintenance, overhaul or repair of the Project and the areas used in connection with the operation of the Project, whether they be employed by Landlord or by an independent contractor with whom Landlord will have contracted or may contract for such services, which costs will be similar to those charged by similar parties for similar services rendered in the Boulder, Colorado area; provided that any increase or decrease in the hours of employment or the number of paid holidays or vacation days, social security taxes, unemployment insurance taxes and the cost (if any) of providing disability, hospitalization, medical, welfare, pension, retirement or other benefits applicable with respect to such employees, will correspondingly affect the wage and labor costs; and (c) Costs of utilities, fuel, building supplies and materials, insurance, service contracts and the other common area maintenance charge obligation allocated to the Project, and the areas used in connection with the operation of the Project; and (d) Alterations to the Project or the areas used in connection with the operation of the Project for lifesafety systems or energy conservation required by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Project (together with all costs, and interests thereon at a rate equal to the annual prime rate of interest announced publicly by Wells Fargo Bank, Denver, Colorado from time to time (but in no event in excess of the 6 maximum rate of interest permitted by law), incurred in connection with any such alterations, all amortized over their useful life, except that any such costs (and the interest thereon) incurred in connection with alterations for energy conservation will be amortized at a yearly rate offset by the savings actually realized during such period as a result of such alteration or replacement. Tenant will be liable only for Tenant's Percentage of the annual amortized cost of such improvements during the primary term and any extended term of this Lease, and no liability therefor will survive the expiration of the Lease term; and (e) Consultant, management and professional fees, including attorneys' fee associated with the operation, maintenance and repair of the Project, which costs will be similar to those charged by similar parties for similar services rendered in the Boulder, Colorado area; and (f) Such other items as are included in the cost to Landlord of owning, managing, operating, maintaining, overhauling and repairing the Project and the areas used in connection with operation of the Project, in accordance with accepted accounting or management principles or practices including, but not limited to, hazard liability insurance and the replacement and refitting of building operating components. Operating Costs will not include (1) mortgage principal or interest; (2) ground lease payments; (3) leasing commissions; (4) costs of advertising space for lease in the Project; (5) costs for which Landlord is reimbursed by insurance proceeds or from tenants of the Project (other than such tenants' regular contributions to Operating Costs); (6) any depreciation or capital expenditures (except as expressly provided above); (7) legal fees incurred for negotiating leases or collecting rents; and (8) costs directly and solely related to the maintenance and operation of the entity that constitutes the Landlord, such as accounting fees incurred solely for the purpose of reporting Landlord's financial condition. The fact that it is listed specifically in the foregoing definition of Operating Costs will not be deemed to impose on Landlord an obligation to supply a particular service to the Project or incur a particular expense on behalf of the Project, it being understood that the only services Landlord will be required to provide to Tenant hereunder are those described in Sections 8.3 and 14.2 below. 4.3 Estimated Payments. Beginning on the Commencement Date and ------------------ continuing throughout the term of this Lease, Tenant will pay to Landlord on the first day of each month an amount equal to 1/12 of the product of Tenant's Percentage multiplied by Estimated Operating Costs (as defined below) for such calendar year. "Estimated Operating Costs" for any calendar year means Landlord's estimate of such Operating Costs which will be subject to revision as provided in Sections 4.4 and 4.5 below. The Estimated Operating Costs for calendar year 2001 is attached to this Lease as Exhibit D. For any partial --------- calendar year during the term of this Lease, Estimated Operating Costs will be calculated on a full-year basis. During December of each year or as soon after each December as practicable, Landlord will give Tenant a written notice of Estimated Operating Costs for the ensuing calendar year and Tenant immediately will begin paying 7 Tenant's Percentage of Estimated Operating Costs based upon this calculation. If such written notice is not given in December, Tenant will continue making monthly payments based on the prior year's Estimated Operating Costs until the first day of the month after which such revised notice is given. In the month in which Tenant first makes a payment based upon the revised Estimated Operating Costs, Tenant will pay to Landlord for each month which has elapsed since the immediately prior December the difference between the amount payable based on the revised estimate and the amount payable based on the prior year's estimate. If, at any time but no more than twice a year, it reasonably appears to Landlord that actual Operating Costs will vary from the Estimated Operating Costs for such calendar year, Landlord, by written notice to Tenant, may revise the Estimated Operating Costs and subsequent payments by Tenant in such calendar year will be adjusted accordingly. 4.4 Annual Settlement. Within 90 days after the end of each ----------------- calendar year, Landlord will deliver to Tenant a statement of amounts payable under Section 4.1 for such calendar year. Upon receipt, Tenant shall have a 10-day period in which to review such statement and make any reasonable objection to the Landlord. If no reasonable objections are made after expiration of such 10-day period, such statement will be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant. If reasonable objections are made, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any reasonable and legitimate discrepancy, and to resolve such matter, Landlord can require Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to conduct an audit of such records on terms reasonably specified by Landlord. If the audit discloses that Operating Costs were overstated by more than 5.0%, Landlord will pay for the cost of the audit. If such statement shows an amount owing by Tenant that is less than the Estimated Operating Costs previously paid by Tenant for such calendar year, the excess will be held by Landlord and credited against the next payment of rent; however, if the term has ended and Tenant was not in default at its end, Landlord will refund the excess to Tenant. If such statement shows an amount owing by Tenant that is more than the Estimated Operating Costs previously paid by Tenant for such calendar year, Tenant will pay the deficiency to Landlord within 45 days after the delivery of such statement. 4.5 Final Proration. If this Lease ends on a day other than the --------------- last day of a calendar year, the amount of increase (if any) in the Operating Costs payable by Tenant applicable to the calendar year in which this Lease ends will be calculated on the basis of the number of days of the term falling within such calendar year, and Tenant's obligation to pay any increase or Landlord's obligation to refund any overage will survive the expiration or other termination of this Lease. 4.6 No Representation. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has not ----------------- made any representation or given Tenant any assurance as to the amount or approximate amount of Operating Costs for any calendar year during the term of this Lease and any renewal period. 4.7 Additional Rent. Amounts payable by Tenant according to this --------------- Article 4 constitute Additional Rent, without deduction or offset. If Tenant fails to pay any amounts due pursuant to this Article 4, Landlord will have available to it all of the rights and remedies applicable to Tenant's failure to pay Minimum Rent. 8 ARTICLE 5 (Occupancy) 5.1 Use. Tenant will use and occupy the Demised Premises for the --- purpose set forth in Section 1.13 and for no other purpose. The Demised Premises will not be used for any auction, fire, bankruptcy or distress sale. The character of the occupancy of the Demised Premises, as restricted by this Article and as further restricted by Articles 6 and 17 and any of the Rules and Regulations attached to this Lease, or hereafter adopted, is an additional consideration and inducement for the granting of this Lease. 5.2 Compliance with Law. Tenant will not use or occupy, or permit ------------------- any portion of the Demised Premises to be used or occupied, in violation of any law, ordinance, order, rule, regulation, certificate of occupancy or other governmental requirement or any recorded restriction, or for any activity or in any manner that is hazardous on account of fire or other hazards, or that would in any way violate, suspend, void or increase the rate of fire, liability or any other insurance of any kind at any time carried by Landlord. Any increase in the cost of such insurance attributable to Tenant's activities, property or improvements in the Demised Premises or Tenant's failure to perform and observe its obligations under this Lease, will be payable by Tenant to Landlord on demand. Tenant, at its own expense, will comply with all laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and other governmental requirements now or hereafter relating to the use, condition or occupancy of the Demised Premises and all rules, orders, regulations and requirements of the board of fire underwriters, the Insurance Services Office or any other similar body having jurisdiction over the Building. Tenant will not do or permit to be done any act or thing upon the Demised Premises which will or might subject Landlord to any liability or responsibility for injury to any person or persons or to any property by reason of any business or operation being carried on upon the Demised Premises. Tenant will not place a load upon any floor of the Demised Premises exceeding the floor load per square foot area which such floor was designed to carry and which is allowed by law. Business machines and mechanical equipment will be placed and maintained by Tenant at Tenant's expense in settings sufficient in Landlord's judgment to absorb and prevent vibration, noise and annoyance. 5.3 Food, Beverages and Odors. Tenant will not prepare any food ------------------------- or do any cooking or conduct any restaurant, luncheonette or cafeteria for the sale or service of food or beverages to its employees or to others, or cause or permit any odors of cooking or other processes or any unusual or objectionable odors to emanate from the Demised Premises; provided, however, Tenant may use a microwave oven and have coffee service.

All of Tenant's exterior signs and identifications will conform to the design criteria outlined by Landlord from time to time and will comply with all applicable laws, rules or regulations governing same. Tenant agrees to keep all signs in good condition and repair and agrees to keep such signs lighted, if lighting is available, during those hours from time to time required by Landlord in accordance with Landlord's Rules and Regulations. ARTICLE 6 (Assignment and Subletting) 6.1 Assignment, Mortgage, Subletting. Neither Tenant nor Tenant's -------------------------------- legal representatives, successors or assigns will voluntarily or involuntarily assign, mortgage or encumber this Lease, or sublet or use or occupy or permit the Demised Premises or any part thereof to be used or occupied by others (other than independent contractors occupying a portion of the demised premises without the payment of rent or similar monetary charge and performing services directly related to Tenant's translation and localization business) without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which will not be unreasonably withheld, as more fully explained below. Any assignment, encumbrance, or sublease without Landlord's prior written consent will be voidable and, at Landlord's option, will constitute a default. A transfer of control of Tenant will be deemed an assignment under this Lease and will be subject to all the provisions of this Article. 1. Assignment or Sublease to Unrelated Party. Notwithstanding the ----------------------------------------- above, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublease the Demised Premises upon fulfillment of all of the following express conditions, but not otherwise: (A) Tenant has notified Landlord in writing of any interest in this Lease which Tenant wishes to assign or any portion of the Demised Premises which Tenant wishes to sublet or permit others to occupy; such notice will specify the terms and conditions of such transaction and will be accompanied by any information Landlord may require with respect to the proposed assignee, sublessee or occupant; (B) Tenant is not then in uncured default under any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions, or agreements of this Lease; (C) The proposed assignee or subtenant will be subject to the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, but, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it will be reasonable for Landlord to deny such consent if: 10 (1) the use to be made of the Demised Premises by the proposed assignee or subtenant is (a) not generally consistent with the character and nature of all other tenancies in the Building, or (b) a use which conflicts with any so-called "exclusive" then in favor of, or any use which is the same as that stated in any percentage lease to, another tenant of the Building, or [c] a use which would be prohibited by any other portion of this Lease (including but not limited to any Rules and Regulations then in effect); or (2) the character, moral stability, reputation and financial responsibility of the proposed assignee or subtenant are not reasonably satisfactory to Landlord or in any event not at least equal to those which were possessed by Tenant as of the date of execution of this Lease; (D) Neither such assignment or sublease, nor Landlord's consent thereto, will release or discharge Tenant of or from any liability, whether past, present or future, under this Lease; (E) The consent by Landlord to any such assignment or sublease will not in any way be construed to relieve Tenant or any assignee or subtenant from obtaining the express consent in writing of Landlord to any further assignment or sublease; (F) Tenant will not be released from any liability under this Lease because of Landlord's failure to give Tenant notice of default under any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease; (G) Tenant does not sublease the Demised Premises to more than two subtenants; (H) The term of each sublease is not less than one year, unless the unexpired term of this Lease is less than one year, in which event the term of such sublease will be for the unexpired term of this Lease, less one day; and, in no event will the term of the sublease be for a longer period than the unexpired term of this Lease, less one day; (I) Each sublease will expressly provide that it is subject and subordinate to this Lease; (J) Tenant will pay to Landlord, Landlord's then standard processing fee and the reasonable attorneys' fees (not to exceed $1,000) incurred in connection with each such request; (K) The proposed assignee or subtenant will execute an agreement pursuant to which it will agree to perform faithfully and be bound by all of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease; and 11 (L) An executed duplicate original of an assignment and assumption agreement or sublease, in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, will be delivered to Landlord within five days after the execution of the agreement, and such assignment or sublease will not be binding upon Landlord until the delivery of the agreement to Landlord and the execution and delivery of Landlord's consent to the agreement. Landlord will receive 50% of any profits which Tenant may receive by assigning this Lease or subleasing the Demised Premises, including increased Minimum Rent collected by Tenant. As used in this Lease, the term "profits" will mean the consideration payable by the assignee or subtenant to Tenant fairly attributable to this Lease and the Demised Premises (which, if payable on other than a monthly schedule, will be prorated on a monthly basis), including the gross monthly rental receivable by Tenant under such assignment or sublease, less the pro rata base monthly rent and escalation rent payable by Tenant to Landlord with respect to the Demised Premises covered by the assignment or sublease. Landlord will have the option to terminate this Lease, rather than approve the assignment or subleasing of it; provided that before exercising such option, Landlord provides Tenant notice of its intention to exercise the option and Tenant has the opportunity to withdraw its request for Landlord's consent. In addition, Landlord's option to terminate shall not apply to a sublease or assignment to a Related Party (defined below). II. Assignment or Sublease to Related Party. Landlord agrees to --------------------------------------- give its consent as a matter of course to an assignment of this Lease or sublease of the Demised Premises to (a) any entity controlled by Tenant, or (b) any entity which controls Tenant, or (c) any entity under the common control of Tenant and a third party, or (d) any entity resulting from merger or consolidation with Tenant (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Related Party") if, but only if, Tenant, and such Related Party fully comply with subparagraphs (C), (D), (E) and (G) above of Section I of this Article. 6.2 Procedure for Assignment. Tenant will notify Landlord in ------------------------ writing of any interest in this Lease which Tenant wishes to assign or any portion of the Demised Premises which Tenant wishes to sublet or permit others to occupy. Such notice will specify the terms and conditions of such transaction and will be accompanied by any information Landlord may require with respect to the proposed assignee, sublessee or occupant. Fifty percent of all rent or other consideration paid by the assignee, sublessee or occupant to Tenant in excess of the Minimum Rent, as adjusted, and Additional Rent due to Landlord under this Lease will be paid to Landlord. Tenant will reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable expenses as set forth in Section 6.1 (J) (not to exceed $1,000 per request), and reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with the review and documentation of any transfer of the Demised Premises or this Lease for which Landlord's consent is requested, regardless of whether Landlord's consent is granted. ARTICLE 7 (Alterations) 7.1 Alterations. Tenant may not make any alterations, ----------- installations, additions or improvements affecting the structural components of the Building or the Building 12 systems. Tenant will make no other alterations, installations, additions or improvements in or to the Demised Premises without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant understands that Landlord's consent will be conditioned on Tenant's compliance with Landlord's requirements in effect at the time permission is requested, which requirements will include, but not be limited to, Landlord's reasonable approval of plans, specifications, contractors, insurance, and hours of construction. Tenant will be required to pay as Additional Rent to Landlord a reasonable fee for supervising Tenant's contractor and for Landlord's related costs, such as, but not limited to, trash removal and utilities. Prior to the commencement of any work in or about the Demised Premises by Tenant's contractors, Tenant will on request deliver to Landlord certificates issued by applicable insurance companies evidencing that workmen's compensation, commercial general liability and property damage insurance, all in amounts and with companies and on forms satisfactory to Landlord, are in full force and effect and maintained by all contractors and subcontractors engaged by Tenant to perform such work.

Before commencing any work, Tenant will give Landlord ------ at least five days' written notice of the proposed commencement of such work. Preceding and during the course of such work, Tenant will post and keep posted in conspicuous places on the Demised Premises such notice as Landlord will prepare as may be permitted by law to protect Landlord from having its interest in the Demised Premises made subject to a mechanic's lien, and if requested by Landlord and the cost of such work is expected to or actually does exceed $5,000, Tenant will secure, at Tenant's own cost and expense, a completion and lien indemnity bond satisfactory to Landlord for said work. Any mechanic's lien filed against the Demised Premises, the Building or the Project for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to, Tenant, will be discharged by Tenant, by bond or otherwise, within 10 days after the filing thereof, at the cost and expense of Tenant. 7.3 Title to Improvements. All alterations, additions or --------------------- improvements upon the Demised Premises made by either Landlord or Tenant which are fixtures of the realty, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all paneling, partitions, railings, and the like, unless Landlord elects otherwise (which election will be made by giving a notice pursuant to the provisions of Article 25 below at the time Landlord consents to such alterations), will become the property of Landlord, and will remain upon and be surrendered with the Demised Premises, as a part of the Demised Premises, at the end of the term of this Lease. If Tenant will be required to remove any fixtures or other property from the Demised Premises, Tenant will fully repair or, at Landlord's option, will pay to Landlord the cost of fully repairing, any damage arising from such removal. Tenant's obligation to perform and observe this covenant will survive the expiration or other termination of this Lease. 13 ARTICLE 8 (Repairs) 8.1 Tenant's Repairs.

All repairs required under this section will be made only by contractors and mechanics reasonably approved by Landlord.

Tenant will take good care of any -------------------------- and all floor and window coverings installed at any time in any portion of the Demised Premises, and Tenant will make, as and when needed, all repairs in and to the said coverings and shampoo and/or clean any of said coverings as necessary to preserve them in good order, condition and appearance. Upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease, Tenant will surrender said coverings to Landlord in good order, condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. 8.3 Landlord's Repairs. Except as otherwise provided in this ------------------ Lease, Landlord will repair the mechanical, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, ventilation and electrical equipment and systems, the Common Area, and the roof, foundation and exterior walls, and will make structural repairs within the Demised Premises arising from ordinary wear and tear or through causes over which Tenant has no control, all of which repairs will constitute Operating Costs (except for acts of Landlord's gross negligence). Landlord may repair at the expense of Tenant, subject to Section 9.4 below, any damage or injury to the Demised Premises, or to the Building or to its fixtures, appurtenances or equipment or to any of the Project done by Tenant or Tenant's agents, servants, employees, contractors, visitors or licensees, or caused by moving property of Tenant in or out of the Building, or resulting from the carelessness, negligence, or improper conduct of Tenant or Tenant's agents, servants, employees, contractors, visitors or licensees. Landlord will have the right to replace any and all plate and other glass damaged or broken from any cause whatsoever, except the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, in which case this will be Tenant's responsibility) in or about the Demised Premises, which shall be a part of Operating Costs. 8.4 No Rent Abatement. There will be no allowance to Tenant for a ----------------- diminution of rental value, and no liability on the part of Landlord by reason of inconvenience, annoyance, or injury to business arising from the making of, or the failure to make, any repairs, alterations, additions or improvements in or to any portion of the Demised Premises or the Project, or in or to fixtures, appurtenances or equipment contained therein, and in no event will Landlord be responsible for any consequential damages arising or alleged to have arisen from any such event. Tenant hereby waives all rights under any law in existence during the term of this Lease authorizing a tenant to make repairs at the expense of a landlord or to terminate a lease upon the complete or 14 partial destruction of the leased premises. Nothing in this Section 8.4 will limit Tenant's rights to obtain damages (exclusive of consequential damages) for Landlord's failure to perform its obligations under Section 8.3 or otherwise in this Lease. ARTICLE 9 (Insurance) 9.1 Landlord's Insurance Coverage. Landlord will maintain ----------------------------- liability insurance, hazard insurance on the Building and such other insurance coverage as it reasonably deems necessary, the cost of which will be included in Operating Costs. Tenant acknowledges that it has no right to receive any proceeds from any such insurance policies carried by Landlord and that such insurance is for the sole benefit of Landlord. Landlord will not be responsible for insuring any alterations, installations or other improvements made by Tenant or Landlord to the Demised Premises or any personal property of Tenant, except for the initial build out of the Demised Premises by Landlord. 9.2 Tenant's Insurance Coverage. Tenant agrees, at Tenant's sole --------------------------- cost and expense, to carry and maintain (i) commercial general liability insurance, including bodily injury and property damage, personal injury and contractual liability with respect to all claims, demands, or actions by any person, firm or corporation, in any way arising from, related to, or connected with, the conduct and operation of Tenant's business or use of the Demised Premises (such policies will be written on a comprehensive basis, with limits of not less than $2,000,000 and include contractual liability coverage for performance by Tenant of the indemnities set forth in this Lease); (ii) fire and extended coverage insurance, including endorsements for vandalism, malicious mischief, theft and sprinkler leakage, covering all of Tenant's property in the Demised Premises, including, but not limited to, furniture, fittings, installations, alterations, additions, partitions, fixtures, merchandise and anything in the nature of a leasehold improvement owned by Tenant in an amount equal to the full replacement cost of such property without deduction for depreciation; (iii) standard form workers' compensation and employers' liability insurance in amounts as required by an applicable governmental agency or authority; (iv) plate glass (other than Building exterior glass windows) insurance in an amount not less than the full replacement costs of any such glass breakage; (v) comprehensive automobile liability insurance policy insuring all owned, non-owned and hired vehicles used in the conduct of Tenant's business and operated upon or parked on the Project with limits of liability of not less than $1,000,000 each person and $1,000,000 each occurrence for bodily injury and $500,000 each occurrence for property damage; and (vi) business interruption insurance in amounts and for insurance risks against which a prudent tenant would protect itself as specified by Landlord. 9.3 Form of Policies. All policies of commercial general ---------------- liability insurance and property damage insurance which Tenant is obligated to maintain according to this Lease will name Landlord as an additional insured. Tenant will deliver to Landlord a copy of all such policies or certificates of insurance (including, in any case, documentation naming Landlord as an additional insured) and evidence of payment of all premiums for any such policies prior to Tenant's occupancy of the Demised Premises and from time to time during the Lease term, at least 15 30 days prior to the expiration of the term of each such policy. All policies of commercial general liability insurance and property damage insurance maintained by Tenant also will contain a provision that Landlord, although named as an additional insured, will nevertheless be entitled to recover under such policies for any loss sustained by Landlord, its agents and employees as a result of the acts or omissions of Tenant. Such commercial general liability insurance and property damage insurance policies also will be written as primary policies, not contributing with and not in excess of coverage that Landlord may carry. All policies required to be maintained by Tenant will provide that they may not be terminated or amended except after 30 days' prior written notice to Landlord. 9.4 Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding any other provision of --------------------- this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant waive any and all rights to recover against each other and their respective officers, members, employees, agents and representatives for any loss or damage to such waiving party arising from any cause to the extent covered by the greater of any valid and collectible insurance required to be carried by such party pursuant to this Article 9 or any other insurance actually carried by such party to the extent of the proceeds paid under such insurance. Such waiver will be effective only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such time as Landlord's and Tenant's policies will be in force and effect and so long as it does not adversely affect or impair such policies or prejudice the right of the releasing party to recover under such policies. Landlord and Tenant will cause their respective insurers to issue appropriate waiver of subrogation rights endorsements to all policies of insurance carried in connection with the Demised Premises and any personal property located thereon. 9.5 Liability. Neither Landlord nor Landlord's agents will be --------- liable for any property entrusted to them, their employees or the Building personnel, or for the loss of such property by theft or otherwise. Neither Landlord nor Landlord's agents will be liable for any injury to or death of persons or for loss of or damage to property occurring in, on, or about the Project resulting from falling plaster, explosion, flood, sprinkling devices, defective wiring, excessive heat or cold, frost, broken glass, steam, gas, electricity, snow, wind, hail, water, broken or leaking pipes or plumbing fixtures, earthquake, war, civil disorder, strike, water, or rain which may leak from any part of the Building or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing works of the same or from the street or sub-surface or from any other place or resulting from dampness or any other cause of any nature, and Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord against any and all claims, losses, damages, costs, and expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees and expenses) arising out of the foregoing, unless caused by or due solely to the negligence of Landlord, Landlord's agents, servants or employees. Neither Landlord nor Landlord's agents will be liable for any such damage caused by other tenants or parties in the Building or Project or any of the areas used in connection with the operation of the Building or Project, or for interference with light or other incorporeal hereditaments, or caused by construction of any private, public or quasi public work or by any repairs, alterations, injuries or accidents in or about the Project or adjacent premises; nor will Landlord be liable for any latent defect in the Building or for interference with light or other incorporeal hereditaments. Tenant will reimburse Landlord for all expenses, damages or fines incurred or suffered by Landlord by reason of any breach, violation or nonperformance by Tenant, or Tenant's agents, servants, employees, contractors, visitors or licensees of any term, covenant, condition, provision or agreement of this Lease, or by reason of damage to persons or property caused by moving property 16 in or out of the Building or by the installation or removal of furniture or other property of or for Tenant, or by reason of or arising out of the occupancy or use by Tenant of the Demised Premises or of the Building or any of the areas used in connection with the operation of the Building or any part thereof, or from any other cause due in whole or in part to the negligence or other wrongful act of Tenant or Tenant's agents, servants, employees, contractors, visitors or licensees. Tenant will give immediate notice to Landlord in case of fire or accident to or defect in the Building or any of its fixtures, appurtenances or equipment. All property belonging to Tenant or any occupant of the Demised Premises will be at the risk of Tenant or such person only, and Landlord will not be liable for damage thereto or theft or misappropriation thereof. 9.6 Tenant's Indemnification. Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds ------------------------ harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims, liabilities damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of (i) the conduct of Tenant's business in the Demised Premises, (ii) any breach or default by Tenant of the covenants, terms and conditions contained in this Lease, or (iii) any negligent act or omission by, or the intentional misconduct of, Tenant, its agents, contractors, servants, employees, invitees or licensees. Tenant will give immediate notice to Landlord in case of fire or accident to or defect in the Building or any of its fixtures, appurtenances or equipment or any other portion of the Project. ARTICLE 10 (Subordination and Attornment) 10.1 Subordination. It is agreed that this Lease may, at the ------------- option of Landlord, be made subordinate to any ground or underlying leases, mortgages, or deeds of trust which may now or hereafter affect the real property of which the Demised Premises form apart and that Tenant, or Tenant's successors-in-interest, will execute and deliver upon the demand of Landlord any and all instruments desired by Landlord subordinating in the manner requested by Landlord this Lease to such lease, mortgage or deed of trust. Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to obtain a non-disturbance agreement from future lenders of the Building. Landlord is hereby irrevocably appointed and authorized as agent and attorney-in-fact of Tenant to execute and deliver all such subordination instruments in the event Tenant fails to execute and deliver said instruments within five days after its receipt of notice from Landlord demanding the execution thereof. 10.2 Attornment. Tenant agrees that, at the option of the ---------- landlord under any ground lease hereafter affecting the real property of which the Demised Premises form a part, Tenant will attorn to said landlord in the event of the termination or cancellation of such ground lease and if requested by said landlord, Tenant will enter into a new lease with said landlord (or a successor ground lessee designated by said landlord) for the balance of the term then remaining under this Lease upon the same terms and conditions as those herein provided. 10.3 Mortgages. In the event of a foreclosure or exercise of --------- power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust now or hereafter affecting the real property of which the Demised Premises form a part, the holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust (or purchaser at any sale pursuant thereto) will have the option of (i) requiring Tenant to attorn to such holder or 17 purchaser, and to enter into a new lease with such holder or purchaser (as landlord) for the balance of the term then remaining under this Lease upon the same terms and conditions as those provided in this Lease, or (ii) electing that this Lease become or remain, as the case may be, superior to said mortgage or deed of trust; provided, that, in no event will such holder or purchaser (x) be liable for the act or omission of any prior Landlord, or (y) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant may have against any prior Landlord, or (z) be bound by any payment of Minimum or Additional Rent which Tenant might have paid for more than one month in advance to any prior Landlord. Any attornment pursuant to this Article 10 will occur automatically but Tenant, upon request and without cost to Landlord, will execute and deliver any and all instruments reasonably desired by such holder or purchaser evidencing such attornment to any said mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease. 10.4 Amendments to Lease. In the event that Landlord or any such ------------------- holder at any time requests that this Article contain different language to the same general effect that is not a material adverse change of the then existing terms of the Lease, Tenant agrees promptly to execute and deliver an amendment of this Lease memorializing the same. ARTICLE 11 (Rules and Regulations) 11.1 Compliance with Rules. Tenant and Tenant's agents, servants, --------------------- employees, contractors, visitors and licensees will observe faithfully and comply strictly with the Rules and Regulations attached as Exhibit B and made a --------- part of this Lease, and such other and further Rules and Regulations as Landlord or Landlord's agents may from time to time adopt. Notice of any additional Rules or Regulations will be given in accordance with the provisions of Article 25 below. Landlord will not be liable to Tenant for any violation of said Rules and Regulations, or the breach of any term, covenant, condition, provision, or agreement in any lease, by any other tenant or other party. Landlord will use reasonable efforts in a non-discriminatory manner to enforce the Rules and Regulations. Any new Rules and Regulations will not adversely affect Tenant's rights under this Lease. ARTICLE 12 (Damage or Destruction) 12.1 Damage. If the Demised Premises will be damaged by fire or ------ other cause without the fault or neglect of Tenant, Tenant's agents, servants, employees, contractors, visitors or licensees, the damages will be repaired by and at the expense of Landlord to the extent insurance proceeds are available therefor unless Landlord elects not to repair as hereinafter provided, and rent will abate during such time as and to the extent that the demised premises are untenantable. No liability will accrue for any delay in repairing the Demised Premises which may arise by reason of adjustment of insurance on the part of Landlord or Tenant or for delay on account of "labor troubles," or for any other cause beyond Landlord's control. 12.2 Landlord's Right to Terminate Lease. Landlord may elect to ----------------------------------- terminate this Lease if the Building or the Demised Premises are (i) destroyed or substantially damaged by 18 casualty not covered by insurance, (ii) destroyed or rendered untenantable to an extent in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of the rentable area of the Building or the Demised Premises, or (iii) damaged to such extent that the remaining term of this Lease is not sufficient to amortize the costs of reconstruction thereof. Should Landlord elect to terminate this Lease, it will give written notice of such election to Tenant within 90 days after the occurrence of such casualty. The term of this Lease will expire upon the third day after such notice is given and Tenant will vacate the Demised Premises and surrender the same to Landlord. 12.3 Obligations of Tenant. Tenant agrees that, during any period --------------------- of reconstruction or repair, it will continue the operation of its business within the Demised Premises to the extent practicable. Tenant also will proceed with reasonable diligence, at its sole cost and expense, to rebuild, repair, restore and replace any furnishings, fixtures, equipment, merchandise and other property belonging to Tenant. Tenant agrees that, in the event of damage or destruction to the leasehold improvements or Landlord's property in the Demised Premises covered by insurance required to be taken out by Tenant pursuant to this Lease, Tenant will repair, restore or replace such leasehold improvements or property at Tenant's expense. In the event of damage or destruction of the Building or Demised Premises entitling the Landlord to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Article 12, Tenant will pay to Landlord all of its insurance proceeds relating to the leasehold improvements and Landlord's property in the Demised Premises and surrender to Landlord, in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, the leasehold improvements and such property in the Demised Premises. ARTICLE 13 (Eminent Domain) 13.1 Eminent Domain. In the event the entire Demised Premises -------------- will be appropriated or taken under the power of eminent domain by any public or quasi-public authority, this Lease will terminate and expire as of the date of such taking. In the event more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the rentable area of the Demised Premises is taken under the power of eminent domain by any public or quasi-public authority, or if more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total land area in the Project is taken, then the Landlord will have the right to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice of such termination within 60 days after the taking of possession by such public or quasi-public authority. In the event more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the rentable area of the Demised Premises is taken under the power of eminent domain by any public or quasi-public authority Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by delivering 10 days' prior written notice to Landlord within 10 days after the date of such taking. 13.2 Damages. All compensation awarded for any taking (or the ------- proceeds of any private sale in lieu thereof) of the Demised Premises or the Project will be the property of Landlord and Tenant hereby assigns its interest in any such award to Landlord. However, Tenant may make a separate claim against the condemning authority for Tenant's personal property and moving costs, so long as such claim does not reduce the award to Landlord. 19 13.3 Restoration. If this Lease is not terminated as a result of ----------- any condemnation or taking, Tenant will remain in that portion of the Demised Premises which will not have been appropriated or taken as herein provided, and Landlord agrees, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, as soon as reasonably possible, to restore the remaining portion of the Demised Premises to a complete unit of like quality and character as existed prior to such appropriation or taking; and thereafter, the Minimum Rent provided for herein will be adjusted on an equitable basis, taking into account the relative value of the portion taken as compared to the portion remaining. In the event that no part of the Demised Premises is taken, Landlord agrees to restore and repair any remaining part of the Project and where there is no taking of the Demised Premises there will be no reduction in the Minimum Rent hereunder unless the rentable area of the Demised Premises is reduced, in which event Minimum Rent will be reduced proportionately. In no event will there be an abatement or reduction of Additional Rent. ARTICLE 14 (Utilities and Services) 14.1 Installation and Use. Tenant will use the utilities -------------------- (including water, gas, electricity, sewer and telephone supplied to or serving the Demised Premises) in accordance with Landlord's Rules and Regulations and the rules and regulations of the public utility company or the governmental agency supplying the same. Except as otherwise provided herein, Landlord will not be responsible for providing any meters or other devices for the measurement of utilities supplied to the Demised Premises. Tenant will pay for all utilities servicing the Demised Premises. 14.2 Utility Services by Landlord. Should Landlord elect to ---------------------------- supply any utility services used or consumed in the Demised Premises, Tenant agrees to purchase and pay Landlord as Additional Rent for the same at a cost not to exceed that which the utility company would have charged Tenant for furnishing such utilities directly to Tenant. Tenant will pay such utility costs to Landlord within 10 days after written notice from Landlord. If Landlord is furnishing Tenant any utilities hereunder, Landlord, at any time at Landlord's sole option and upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice to Tenant, may discontinue furnishing such utility to the Demised Premises, and in such case, Tenant will contract with the public utility company or governmental agency supplying such utility service for the purchase and obtaining by Tenant of such utility directly from such company or agency. In the event any of Tenant's utility charges are not separately metered, Tenant will pay its proportionate share of such charges, as Additional Rent, upon written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant. 14.3 Interruption of Service. Landlord will not be liable to ----------------------- Tenant or any other person for any damages or injury to person or property, including, without limitation, damages for injury to or loss of Tenant's business, resulting from interruption, curtailment or cessation of any utility service, air conditioning, heat, snow removal or parking nor will the same entitle Tenant to any abatement of Rent or be deemed an eviction of Tenant in whole or in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that an interruption or curtailment of services (other than cleaning) which Landlord is obligated to furnish at Landlord's expense renders the Demised Premises totally unusable and the same are actually unused by Tenant for more than five consecutive business days, then and 20 in that event Tenant will be entitled to an abatement of rent commencing with the sixth business day that the same are unusable and unused; provided, however, that Tenant will not be entitled to any abatement of rent under the foregoing due to unusability (1) caused directly or indirectly by any act or omission of Tenant or any of Tenant's servants, employees, agents, contractors, visitors or licensees, (2) where Tenant makes or requests a decoration, alteration, improvement or addition which requires interruption of services, or (3) where the service in question is one which Tenant is obligated to furnish or pay for under the provisions of this Lease. 14.4 Excessive Use. If Tenant uses unusual amounts of ------------- electricity, water, or other utilities in the sole discretion of Landlord, then Landlord may install a meter and thereby measure Tenant's electricity, water or other utility consumption for all purposes. Tenant will pay Landlord for the cost of the meter and the cost of the installation thereof, and, throughout the duration of Tenant's occupancy, Tenant will keep the meter in good working order and repair at Tenant's own cost and expense, in default of which Landlord may cause such meter to be replaced or repaired and collect the cost thereof from Tenant as Additional Rent. Tenant agrees to pay for electricity, water or other utility consumed, as shown on the meter, as and when bills are rendered, and on default in making such payment Landlord may pay such charges and collect the same from Tenant. At all times Tenant's use of electric current will never exceed the capacity of the feeders to the Building or the risers or wiring installation. 14.5 Plumbing. Tenant will at all times maintain at its own cost -------- and expense all plumbing facilities and related equipment within the Demised Premises in good order, condition and repair to the satisfaction of Landlord. Nothing herein contained will be construed to confer upon Tenant the right to install any plumbing facilities without the prior consent of Landlord. 14.6 Cessation of Services. Landlord reserves the right to stop --------------------- service of the elevator, plumbing, heating, ventilating, air conditioning and electric or other mechanical systems, or cleaning services, when necessary, by reason of accident or emergency or of inspection, repairs, alterations, additions or improvements which in the judgment of Landlord are desirable or necessary to be made, until same will have been completed, and will further have no responsibility or liability for failure to supply any such services in such instance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any interference associated with such cessation of services. ARTICLE 15 (Access) 15.1 Access for Repairs. Tenant will permit Landlord to use and ------------------ maintain pipes, conduits and other facilities in and through the Demised Premises. Landlord and Landlord's agents will have the right to enter the Demised Premises at all times after reasonable advance notice, except in the case of emergency in which case no notice is required, to examine the same and to make such repairs, alterations, additions, and improvements as Landlord may deem necessary or desirable, and Landlord will be allowed to take all material into and upon the Demised Premises that may be required therefor without the same constituting an eviction of Tenant in whole or in part, and 21 the rent will in no wise abate while such repairs, alterations, additions or improvements are being made, by reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to the business of Tenant because of the prosecution of any such work, or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any interference associated with such activities. 15.2 Access to Show or Renovate. After reasonable advance notice, -------------------------- except in the case of emergency in which case no notice is required, Landlord and Landlord's agents may inspect the Demised Premises at any time and may show the Demised Premises at any time to prospective tenants, mortgagees, and purchasers of the Building and other persons with a business interest therein. If, during the last month of the term, Tenant will have removed all or substantially all of Tenant's property therefrom, Landlord immediately may enter and alter, renovate and redecorate the Demised Premises, without elimination or abatement of rent or other compensation, and such acts will have no effect upon this Lease. 15.3 Conditions of Entry. If Tenant will not be personally ------------------- present to open and permit an entry into the Demised Premises at any time when, for any reason, an entry will be necessary or permissible under this Lease, Landlord or Landlord's agents may enter the same by a master key, or may forcibly enter the Demised Premises, without rendering Landlord or such agents liable therefor (if during such entry Landlord or Landlord's agents will accord reasonable care to Tenant's property), and without in any manner affecting the obligations, terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease. Landlord will have the right to change the arrangement and location of entrances and passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, stairs, toilets, and other Common Areas, and after reasonable notice, to change the name, number and designation by which the Building is commonly known. Nothing contained in this Article 15, however, will be deemed or construed to impose upon Landlord any obligation, responsibility or liability whatsoever for the care, supervision or repair of the Building or any part thereof, other than as otherwise provided in this Lease. ARTICLE 16 (Certificates of Occupancy) 16.1 Certificates of Occupancy. Tenant will not at any time use ------------------------- or occupy the Demised Premises in violation of the certificates of occupancy issued for the Building, and, in the event that any department of the city or county in which the Building is located, or of the State of Colorado, will hereafter at any time contend or declare that the Demised Premises are used for a purpose which is in violation of such certificate or certificates of occupancy, Tenant will, upon five days' written notice from Landlord or any governmental agency, immediately discontinue such use of the Demised Premises. Failure by Tenant to discontinue such use after such notice will be considered a default under this Lease, and Landlord will have the right to terminate this Lease immediately, and, in addition thereto, will have the right to exercise any and all rights and privileges and remedies given to Landlord by and pursuant to the provisions of Article 19 below. The statement in this Lease of the nature of the business to be conducted by Tenant in the Demised Premises will not be deemed or construed to constitute a representation or guaranty by Landlord that such business is lawful or permissible under any certificate of occupancy issued for the Building, 22 or otherwise permitted by law. Landlord will provide a copy of the certificate of occupancy for the Demised Premises upon completion of the tenant improvement work to be performed by Landlord. ARTICLE 17 (Life Safety Systems) 17.1 Life Safety Systems. If there now is or hereafter will be ------------------- installed in the Building a sprinkler system, heat, or smoke detection system or any other so-called life-safety system and any such system or any of its appliances will be damaged or injured or not in proper working order by reason of any act or omission of Tenant, Tenant's agents, servants, employees, contractors, visitors, or licensees, Tenant will forthwith restore the same to good working condition. If Landlord's insurer, or any bureau, department or official of the state, county or city government, or any governmental authority having jurisdiction, requires or recommends that any changes, modifications, alterations, or additional equipment be made or supplied in or to any such system by reason of Tenant's business or the location of partitions, trade fixtures, or other contents of the Demised Premises, or if any such changes, modifications, alterations or additional equipment become necessary to prevent the imposition of a penalty or charge against the full allowance for any such system in the insurance rate as fixed by said governmental authority or by Landlord's insurance company, Tenant will, at Tenant's expense, promptly make and supply such changes, modifications, alterations or additional equipment. ARTICLE 18 (Bankruptcy) 18.1 Bankruptcy Prior to Term. If at any time prior to the ------------------------ Commencement Date, there will be filed by or against Tenant in any court pursuant to any statute either of the United States or of any state a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or conservator of all or a portion of Tenant's property, or if Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, this Lease will ipso facto be canceled and terminated, and in such event neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant or by virtue of any statute or of an order of any court will be entitled to possession of the Demised Premises; and Landlord, in addition to the other rights and remedies given by Section 18.3 below or by virtue of any other provision in this Lease contained or by virtue of any statute or rule of law, may retain as damages any rent, security deposit or moneys received by it from Tenant or others on behalf of Tenant. 18.2 Bankruptcy During Term. If at any time during the term of ---------------------- this Lease there will be filed by or against Tenant in any court pursuant to any statute either of the United States or of any state a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or conservator of all or a portion of Tenant's property, or if Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, this Lease, at the option of Landlord exercised within a reasonable time after notice of the happening of any one or more of such events, may be canceled and terminated, and in such event neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant or by virtue of any statute or of an order of any court will be entitled to possession or to remain in 23 possession of the Demised Premises, but will forthwith quit and surrender the Demised Premises, and Landlord, in addition to the other rights and remedies granted by Section 18.3 below or by virtue of any other provision in this Lease contained or by virtue of any statute or rule of law, may retain as damages any rent and any security deposit or moneys received by it from Tenant or others on behalf of Tenant. 18.3 Measure of Damages. In the event of the termination of this ------------------ Lease pursuant to Sections 18.1 or 18.2 of this Article, Landlord will be entitled to the same rights and remedies as those set forth in Articles 19 and in Article 21 of this Lease. 18.4 Other Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any of the events -------------- specified in this Article, if Landlord will not choose to exercise, or by law will not be able to exercise, its rights hereunder to terminate this Lease, then, in addition to any other rights of Landlord provided hereunder or by law, (i) Landlord will not be obligated to provide Tenant with any of the services specified in this Lease, unless Landlord has received compensation in advance for such services, and the parties agree that Landlord's estimate of the compensation required with respect to such services will control, and (ii) neither Tenant, as debtor-in-possession, nor any trustee or other person (hereinafter collectively called the "Assuming Tenant") will be entitled to assume this Lease unless, on or before the date of such assumption, the Assuming Tenant (x) cures, or provides adequate assurance that the latter will promptly cure, any existing default under this Lease, (y) compensates, or provides adequate assurance that the Assuming Tenant will promptly compensate, Landlord for any pecuniary loss (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and disbursements) resulting from such default, and (z) provides adequate assurance of future performance under this Lease; it being covenanted and agreed by the parties that, for such purposes, any cure or compensation will be effected by the immediate payment of any monetary default or any required compensation, or the immediate correction or bonding of any nonmonetary default, and "adequate assurance" of future performance will be effected by the establishment of an escrow fund for the amount at issue or by bonding, it being covenanted and agreed by Landlord and Tenant that the foregoing provision is a material part of the consideration for this Lease. ARTICLE 19 (Default) 19.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the ----------------- following events will constitute a default under this Lease ("Event of Defaulf"): (a) Tenant will fail to pay any installment of rent or any other sum payable by Tenant pursuant to this Lease following the date the payment is due; provided, however, Landlord will give Tenant up to two written notices of non-payment, with 10 days' opportunity to cure, in any 12-month period; (b) Tenant will fail to perform or observe any other term, covenant, condition, provision or agreement of this Lease and Tenant will fail to remedy said default within 15 days after written notice specifying such default is given by Landlord to Tenant; 24 (c) The Demised Premises become vacant or deserted in whole or in part in excess of 30 days; (d) Tenant will cease to occupy the Demised Premises or will remove substantially all of Tenant's property therefrom unless Tenant continues to pay rent; (e) Tenant will fail to move into or take possession of the Demised Premises within 15 days after the Commencement Date unless Tenant continues to pay rent; (f) Any execution or attachment will be issued against Tenant or any of Tenant's property located on the Demised Premises; (g) The Demised Premises will be taken or occupied or attempted to be taken or occupied by someone other than Tenant without compliance with the provisions of Article 6 above; (h) Tenant assigns or otherwise transfers substantially all of the assets used in connection with the business conducted in the Demised Premises without compliance with the provisions of Article 6 above; (i) Tenant or any officer, director, shareholder, member or partner of Tenant makes any statement or omits to make any statement so as to materially mislead Landlord with regard to Tenant's financial condition or ability to perform its covenants and obligations under this Lease; or (j) Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant's obligations under this Lease will die, cease to exist as a corporation, limited liability company or partnership or will be otherwise dissolved or liquidated or will make a transfer in fraud of creditors. ARTICLE 20 (Remedies) 20.1 Landlord's Remedies. If any Event of Default set forth in ------------------- Article 19 occurs, then Landlord will have the right, at its election: (a) To give Tenant written notice of Landlord's intent to terminate this Lease on the earliest date permitted by law or on any later date specified in such notice, in which case Tenant's right to possession of the Demised Premises will cease and this Lease will be terminated, except as to Tenant's liability, as if the expiration of the term fixed in such notice were the end of the term; (b) Without further demand or notice, to reenter and take possession of the Demised Premises or any part of the Demised Premises, repossess the same, expel 25 Tenant and those claiming through or under Tenant, and remove the effects of both or either, using such force for such purposes as may be necessary, without being liable for prosecution, without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, and without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of rent or other amounts payable under this Lease or as a result of any preceding breach of covenants or conditions; or (c) Without further demand or notice, to cure any Event of Default and to charge Tenant for the cost of effecting such cure, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and interest on the amount so advanced at the rate set forth in Section 3.4, provided that Landlord will have no obligation to cure any such Even of Default of Tenant. Should Landlord elect to reenter as provided in subsection (b), or should Landlord take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided by law, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, relet the Demised Premises or any part of the Demised Premises in Landlord's or Tenant's name, but for the account of Tenant, for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term) and on such conditions and upon such other terms (which may include concessions of free rent and alteration and repair of the Demised Premises) as Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, may determine, and Landlord may collect and receive the rent. Landlord will in no way be responsible or liable for any failure to relet the Demised Premises, or any part of the Demised Premises, or for any failure to collect any rent due upon such reletting. Neither reentry and taking possession of the Demised Premises by Landlord, nor the change of any locks or security devices in the Demised Premises, nor appointment of a receiver upon initiative of Landlord to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease, will constitute an election on Landlord's part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant. No written notice from Landlord under this section or under a forcible or unlawful entry and detainer statute or similar law will constitute an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so states. Landlord reserves the right following any such reentry or reletting to exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant such written notice, in which event this Lease will terminate as specified in such notice. As used in this Lease, the terms "reenter," "reentry," "take possession," "repossess" and "repossession" are not restricted to their technical legal meanings. 20.2 Certain Damages. In the event that Landlord does not elect --------------- to terminate this Lease as permitted in Section 20.1(a), but on the contrary elects to take possession as provided in Section 20.1, Tenant will pay to Landlord Minimum Rent, Additional Rent and other sums as provided in this Lease that would be payable under this Lease if such repossession had not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Demised Premises after deducting all of Landlord's expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, attorneys' fees, expenses of employees, alteration and repair costs, and expenses of preparation for such reletting. If, in connection with any reletting, the new lease term extends beyond the existing term, or the Demised Premises covered by such new lease include other premises not part of the Demised Premises, a fair apportionment of the rent received from such reletting and the expenses incurred in connection with such reletting as provided in this section will be made in determining the net proceeds from such reletting, and any rent 26 concessions will be equally apportioned over the term of the new lease. Tenant will pay such rent and other sums to Landlord monthly on the day on which the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent would have been payable under the Lease if possession had not been retaken, and Landlord will be entitled to receive such rent and other sums from Tenant on each such day. 20.3 Continuing Liability After Termination. If this Lease is --------------------------------------- terminated on account of the occurrence of an Event of Default, Tenant will remain liable to Landlord for damages in an amount equal to Minimum Rent, Additional Rent and other amounts that would have been owing by Tenant for the balance of the term, had this Lease not been terminated, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Demised Premises by Landlord subsequent to such termination, after deducting all of Landlord's expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, the expenses enumerated in Section 20.2. Landlord will be entitled to collect such damages from tenant monthly on the day on which Minimum Rent and other amounts would have been payable under this Lease if this Lease had not been terminated, and Landlord will be entitled to receive such Minimum Rent, Additional Rent and other amounts from Tenant on each such day. Alternatively, at the option of Landlord, in the event this Lease is so terminated, Landlord will be entitled to recover against Tenant as damages for loss of the bargain and not as a penalty: (a) The worth at the time of award of the unpaid Minimum Rent, Additional Rent, late charges and other sums due hereunder that had been earned at the time of termination; (b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Minimum Rent, Additional Rent, late charges and other sums that would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; (c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Minimum Rent, Additional Rent, late charges and other sums which would have been owing for the balance of the term of this Lease (had the same not been so terminated by Landlord) after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; (d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom. The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above is computed by adding interest at the per annum rate described in Section 3.4 in effect on the date on which this Lease is terminated from the date of termination until the time of the award. The "worth at the time of award" of the amount referred to in clause (c) above is computed by discounting to present value such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of Topeka, Kansas at the time of award plus one percent (1%). 27 20.4 Cumulative Remedies. Any suit or suits for the recovery of ------------------- the amounts and damages set forth in Sections 20.2 and 20.3 may be brought by Landlord, from time to time, at Landlord's election, and nothing in this Lease will be deemed to require Landlord to await the date upon which this Lease or the term would have expired had there occurred no Event of Default. Each right and remedy provided for in this Lease is cumulative and is in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Lease or now or after the lease date existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or after the Commencement Date existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise will not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Landlord of any and all other rights or remedies. All costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in collecting any amounts and damages owing by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, or in connection with the appointment of a receiver for the Demised Premises, or to enforce any provision of this Lease, including reasonable attorneys' fees from the date any such matter is turned over to an attorney, whether or not one or more actions are commenced by Landlord, also will be recoverable by Landlord from Tenant. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease, Landlord will additionally have the right of injunction, and Tenant agrees to pay the premium for any bond required in connection with such injunction. Mention in this Lease of any particular remedy will not preclude Landlord from any other remedy, at law or in equity. 20.5 Redemption. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all ---------- rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future law in the event of Tenant's being evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of Landlord's obtaining possession of the Demised Premises, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease, or otherwise. 20.6 Fees and Expenses. If Tenant will default in the performance ----------------- of any obligation on Tenant's part to be performed under this Lease, Landlord may immediately, or at any time thereafter, without notice, perform the same for the account of Tenant. If Landlord at any time is compelled to pay or elects to pay any sum of money or do any act which will require the payment of any sum of money (including, but not limited to, employment of attorneys or incurring of costs), by reason of the failure of Tenant to comply with any term, covenant, condition, provision or agreement hereof, or, if Landlord is compelled to incur or elects to incur any expense (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees in instituting prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding, regardless of whether such action or proceeding proceeds to judgment) by reason of any default of Tenant hereunder, the sum or sums so paid by Landlord with interest at the rate set forth in Section 3.4 and costs and damages will be due from Tenant to Landlord promptly upon demand by Landlord. 28 ARTICLE 21 (End of Term) 21.1 Condition of Demised Premises. Upon the expiration or other ----------------------------- termination of this Lease, Tenant will quit and surrender to Landlord the Demised Premises, broom clean, in as good order, condition and repair as they were in on the Commencement Date, ordinary wear excepted. Subject to Landlord's rights under Section 7.3 above, Tenant will remove all property of Tenant, as directed by Landlord. Any property left on the Demised Premises at the expiration or other termination of this Lease, or after the happening of any of the Events of Default set forth in Article 19 above, may, at the option of Landlord, either be deemed abandoned or be placed in storage at a public warehouse in the name of and for the account of and at the expense and risk of Tenant. If such property is not claimed by Tenant within 10 days after such expiration, termination, or the happening of an Event of Default, it may be sold or otherwise disposed of by Landlord and any costs incurred by Landlordin connection with such sale or disposition will be paid by Tenant immediately upon demand therefor by Landlord. Tenant expressly releases Landlord of and from any and all claims and liability for damage to or loss of property left by Tenant upon the Demised Premises at the expiration or other termination of this Lease, and Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord against any and all claims and liabilities with respect thereto. 21.2 Holding Over. Should Tenant hold over after the termination ------------ of this Lease, whether such termination occurs by lapse of time or otherwise, such tenancy will not constitute a renewal hereof but will be from month to month only, subject to all terms provided herein as may be applicable; provided, however, during any such holdover period, Tenant will pay Minimum Rent at 150% the rate payable for the month immediately preceding termination of this Lease, in addition to Additional Rent and all other sums due and payable under this Lease. This Section 21.2 will not limit or waive Landlord's right of reentry or any other right hereunder. 21.3 Holdover Without Consent. In the event Tenant holds over ------------------------ without Landlord's consent, Tenant will be responsibleto Landlord for all reasonable damage (including, but not limited to, the loss of rent) which Landlord will suffer by reason thereof, and Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord against any and all claims made by any succeeding tenant against Landlord, resulting from delay by Landlord in delivering possession of the Demised Premises to such succeeding tenant due to Tenant's unauthorized holdover. Tenant's obligation to observe or perform all of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Article will survive the expiration or other termination of this Lease. 21.4 Termination. In the event that this Lease terminates for any ----------- reason (including but not limited to termination by Landlord) prior to its natural expiration date, such termination will effect the termination of any and all agreements for the extension of this Lease (whether expressed in an option, exercised or not, or collateral document or otherwise). Any right herein contained on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease will continue during any extension hereof. 29 ARTICLE 22 (Surrender, Waiver and Integration) 22.1 Surrender. No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord's --------- agents during the term hereby demised will be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Demised Premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender will be valid unless it is set forth in a writing signed by Landlord. No employee of Landlord or Landlord's agents will have any power to accept the keys of the Demised Premises prior to the termination of this Lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord or Landlord's agents will not operate as a termination of this Lease or as a surrender of the Demised Premises. 22.2 No Waiver. The failure of Landlord to seek redress for --------- violation of, or to insist upon the strict performance of, any term, covenant, condition, provision or agreement of this Lease or any of the Rules and Regulations attached to this Lease or hereafter adopted by Landlord, will not prevent a subsequent act, which would have originally constituted a violation, from having all the force and effect of an original violation. The receipt by Landlord of rent or other sums with knowledge of the breach of any term, covenant, condition, provision or agreement of this Lease will not be deemed a waiver of such breach. The failure of Landlord to enforce any of the Rules and Regulations attached to this Lease, or hereafter adopted, against Tenant or any other tenant in the Building will not be deemed a waiver of any such Rule and Regulation. No provision of this Lease will be deemed to have been waived by Landlord, unless such waiver is contained in a writing signed by Landlord. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the rent herein stipulated will be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor will any endorsement, legend or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided. 22.3 Integration. This Lease contains the entire agreement ----------- between the parties, and recites the entire consideration given and accepted by the parties. Any agreement hereafter made will be ineffective to change, modify, waive or discharge it in whole or in part unless such agreement is in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, modification, waiver or discharge is sought. ARTICLE 23 (Jury Trial) 23.1 Waiver of Jury Trial. The respective parties hereto hereby -------------------- waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties against the other on any matter whatsoever arising out of, or in any way connected with, this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, Tenant's use or occupancy of the Demised Premises, any claim of injury or damage to property or person, or the enforcement of any remedy under any statute, emergency or otherwise. 30 ARTICLE 24 (Landlord's Default) 24.1 Landlord. Landlord will not be deemed to have defaulted -------- under or breached any term, covenant, condition, provision, or agreement of this Lease unless Tenant will have given Landlord a written notice describing the alleged default or breach with particularity and Landlord thereafter will have failed to cure the default within 20 days following its receipt of the notice; provided, that if the default is of a nature which cannot reasonably be cured within such period, Landlord will not be in default if it commences to cure the default or breach within the 20day period and diligently pursues completion of same. In the event of any default or breach by Landlord hereunder and expiration of the cure period without cure of such default or breach, Tenant agrees that its exclusive remedy will be an action for damages, and Tenant will have no right to terminate the Lease. 24.2 Force Majeure. Notwithstanding the above Section 24.1, this ------------- Lease and the obligation of Tenant to pay rent hereunder and to keep, observe and perform all of the other terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease on the part of Tenant to be kept, observed or performed will in no wise be affected, impaired or excused because Landlord is unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this Lease, or is delayed or curtailed in supplying, any service expressly or impliedly to be supplied, or is unable to make, or is delayed or curtailed in making, any repairs, alterations, decorations, additions or improvements, or is unable to supply, or is delayed or curtailed in supplying, any equipment or fixtures, if Landlord is prevented, delayed or curtailed from so doing by reason of any cause beyond Landlord's control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, strike or labor troubles, riots and civil disturbances, fuel or energy shortages, including, but not limited to, natural gas shortages, governmental preemption or curtailment in connection with a national emergency or in connection with any rule, order, guideline or regulation of any department or governmental agency, or by reason of the conditions of supply and demand which have been or are affected by a war or other emergency. Any such prevention, delay or curtailment will be deemed excused and Landlord will not be subject to any liability resulting therefrom. ARTICLE 25 (Notice) 25.1 Notice. Any notice, demand or other communication required ------ or permitted to be given to Landlord hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed given and received three days after it is deposited in the U.S. Mail, postage prepaid, marked certified or registered mail, addressed to Landlord at the address provided in Section 1.14 above. Any notice, demand or other communication required or permitted to be given to Tenant hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed given and received immediately if left at the Demised Premises addressed to Tenant, or three days following its deposit into the U.S. Mail, postage prepaid, marked certified or registered mail, addressed to Tenant at the address provided in Section 1.14 above. 31 ARTICLE 26 (Security) 26.1 Security Deposit. Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sum ---------------- specified in Section 1.15 as security for the faithful performance and observance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease. Tenant will not be entitled to interest on such security deposit, and Landlord will not be obligated to hold such deposit as a separate fund, but may commingle it with other funds. In the event Tenant defaults in respect of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the payment of rent or other sums due hereunder, Landlord may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the security so deposited to the extent required for the payment of any rent or any other sums as to which Tenant is in default, or for any sum which Landlord may expend or may be required to expend by reason of Tenant's default in respect of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease. Tenant, upon demand by Landlord, will forthwith replenish the security deposit or any portion thereof so used or applied by Landlord. 26.2 Return of Deposit. In the event that Tenant will fully and ----------------- faithfully comply with all of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease, the security deposit, without interest, will be returned to Tenant within 60 days after the date fixed as the end of this Lease, but only if Tenant delivers entire possession of the Demised Premises to Landlord and pays Minimum Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums due under this Lease. 26.3 Transfer of Project. In the event of a sale of the Project ------------------- and/or Building or leasing of the Project and/or the entire Building, or the sale of such leasehold, Landlord will have the right to transfer the security deposit to the transferee or lessee, and Landlord will thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability for the return of such security deposit; and the provisions hereof will apply to every transfer or assignment made of the security deposit to a new landlord. Tenant will not assign or encumber or attempt to assign or encumber the security deposit, and neither Landlord nor its successors or assigns will be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance. In the event of the termination of any ground lease or foreclosure of any fee or leasehold mortgage or deed of trust (or conveyance in lieu thereof) now or hereafter affecting the real property of which the Demised Premises form a part, Tenant will look to the new landlord for the return of said security deposit if said security deposit is transferred to the new landlord. 26.4 [Intentionally omitted.] 32 ARTICLE 27 (Transfer by Landlord and Landlord's Liability) 27.1 Transfer of Landlord's Interest. In the event of a transfer ------------------------------- sale, conveyance, or assignment by Landlord of Landlord's interest in the Project (other than a transfer for security purposes only), Landlord will be relieved from and after the date specified in any notice to Tenant of such transfer or assignment of all of Landlord's obligations and liabilities accruing under this Lease thereafter and Tenant agrees to look only to such assignee or transferee of Landlord's interest for performance of Landlord's obligations under this Lease.

Any plan attached to and made part of this Lease, ----- except as otherwise specifically provided, is used solely for the purpose of identifying or designating the Demised Premises and any markings, measurements, dimensions or notes of 1any kind contained thereon have no bearing upon any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease and are not to be considered a part of it. 30.2 Broker. Tenant represents that Tenant has dealt directly ------ with (and only with) any broker listed in Section 1.18 as broker in connection with this Lease and that, insofar as Tenant is aware, no other broker negotiated this Lease or is entitled to any commission in connection with it.

Termination of a Tenant which is a partnership will be deemed to be an assignment jointly to all of the partners, who will thereafter be governed by the next preceding clauses (i) and (ii) hereof just as if each and all such former partners initially had signed this Lease as individuals. 30.5 Headings. Article and Section headings are used herein for -------- convenience of reference only. Such headings do not constitute part of this Lease and may not be used to define or limit the scope or intent of this Lease or any of its provisions. 30.6 Construction.

In the event any term, covenant, condition, ------------ provision or agreement herein contained is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of any such term, covenant, condition, provision or agreement will in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other term, covenant, condition, provision or agreement herein contained. 30.8 Security.

Time is of the essence with respect to the ---- performance of each and every provision of this Lease. In the event the last day for performance of any act required or permitted under this Lease falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday, the time for such performance will be extended to the next succeeding business day. Each time period under this Lease will exclude the first day and include the last day of such period. 30.12 No Recording. Neither this Lease, nor any notice or ------------ memorandum regarding the terms hereof will be recorded by Tenant. Any such unauthorized recording will give Landlord the right to declare a breach of this Lease and pursue the remedies provided herein. 30.13 Name Change.

Tenant will at anytime and from time to time upon -------- not less than 15 days' prior notice from Landlord execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying to those facts for which certification has been requested by Landlord or by any current or prospective purchaser, mortgagee or beneficiary under a deed of trust, including, without limitation, (i) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, adequately 36 identifying such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect), (ii) the dates to which the Minimum Rent, Additional Rent and other charges have been paid, (iii) whether there is any default by Landlord or Tenant in the performance of any term, covenant, condition, provision or agreement contained in this Lease, and (iv) whether there are any setoffs, defenses or counterclaims against enforcement of the obligations to be performed under this Lease and, if there are, specifying each such default, setoff, defense or counterclaim. Any such statement may be relied upon conclusively by any prospective purchaser or lessee or encumbrancer of the Demised Premises or of all or any portion of the Building or the Project. Tenant's failure to certify such statement within such 15-day period will be conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord, that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance, and that not more than one month's Minimum and Additional Rent has been paid in advance. 30.15 Publicity and Advertisement. Landlord and Tenant agree that --------------------------- prior to the full execution of this Lease, neither party or their agents, employees, or brokers, will issue or authorize the issuance of any press release, publicity, or information concerning the details of this Lease, without the prior written consent of the other party.

Tenant will not prepare any food ------------------------- or do any cooking or conduct any restaurant, luncheonette or cafeteria for the sale or service of food or beverages to its employees or to others, or cause or permit any odors of cooking or other processes or any unusual or objectionable odors to emanate from the Demised Premises; provided, however, Tenant may use a microwave oven and coffee makers in the Demised Premises.

Landlord (and in case Landlord will be a joint ----------- venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, association, or other form of joint ownership, the members of any such form of joint ownership) will have absolutely no personal liability arising from or in connection with this Lease or any obligation or liability arising from or in connection with this Lease in the event of a breach or default by Landlord of any of its obligations. Tenant will look solely to the equity of the Landlord in the Building at the time of the breach or default (or if the interest of Landlord is a leasehold interest at that time, Tenant will look solely to such leasehold interest) for satisfaction of any remedies of Tenant. Such exculpation of liability will be absolute and without exception. 30.21 PERA. PERA is a nominee for Public Employees' Retirement ---- Association of Colorado. The partners of PERA, and officers, trustees, directors, employees and agents of Public Employees' Retirement Association of Colorado will not be responsible for Landlord's covenants and will not be otherwise liable under this Lease. 30.22 Incorporation of Exhibits.

All terms used in this Addendum will have the same definitions as those given such terms in the Office Lease form, unless the context indicates otherwise. The Office Lease is supplemented as follows: 31. COMMENCEMENT OF TERM. Notwithstanding any article of this Lease to the contrary, the Commencement Date and (subject to the last paragraph of this Paragraph 31) Tenant's liability for the payment of Minimum Rent will not commence until after a certificate of occupancy is issued for the Demised Premises or the date Landlord delivers the Demised Premises to Tenant, whichever is first but in no event earlier than March 1, 2002, upon the completion of any tenant finish work to be performed by Landlord. However, if completion of Landlord's work is delayed because of any act or omission of Tenant, including, without limitation, Tenant's failure to proceed diligently with selections for the work or Tenant's insistence upon changes to the work, then Tenant will pay Minimum Rent beginning the date Landlord's work would have been completed without such delays. Furthermore, if Tenant's obligation for the payment of Minimum Rent under this Lease is postponed due to Landlord's failure to complete any Tenant finish work as described in the construction credit letter about to be executed by Tenant of even date herewith, then (i) the term of this Lease will be extended so that the term will end, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof, on the last day of the 61st calendar month after Landlord completes the work; and (ii) the effective dates of increases in the amount of the Minimum Rent payable for the Demised Premises specified in Article 32 below (which are the 13th month, 25th month, 37th month, and 49th month after the Commencement Date) will be appropriately extended by the number of days by which the completion of the Landlord's work in the Demised Premises (or the date of delivery thereof to Tenant) is postponed beyond March 1, 2002. The extension of the term of this Lease and such rent increase dates will be effective on the date of completion of Landlord's work in the Demised Premises (or the date of delivery thereof to Tenant) in accordance with the foregoing, without any further act by Tenant or by Landlord, except that such extended term and such extended rent increase dates may be confirmed by Landlord in a notice to Tenant given in the manner provided in Article 25 of this Lease. Landlord and Tenant will execute an addendum to this Lease to confirm the commencement date under this Article above. -1- Landlord agrees to allow Tenant early access to the Demised Premises at least seven days prior to the Commencement Date for the purpose of installing Tenant's furniture, fixtures and equipment. All such access and entry into the Demised Premises will be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, except the payment of rent. 32. MINIMUM RENT. Tenant will pay Minimum Rent according to the following schedule: Annual Lease Payment Monthly Period Rate Installment ------ ------- ----------- Month 1 abated Months 2-12 $154,580 $12,881.66 Months 13-24 $157,200 $13,100.00 Months 25-36 $159,820 $13,318.34 Months 37-48 $162,440 $13,536.66 Months 49-61 $165,060 $13,755.00 On the condition that Tenant is not in default under the terms of this Lease, the installments of Minimum Rent payable with respect to the Demised Premises for month one of the Lease term will be abated, being a total value of $12,881.66. The fact that Minimum Rent will be abated will not relieve Tenant from the obligation to pay any other additional rent or other charges or both for which provision is made in this Lease. In the event of any uncured default by Tenant, the entire amount of Minimum Rent which was otherwise abated will be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord immediately upon demand. If the Commencement Date has not occurred on or before April 1, 2002, then Tenant will receive one additional day of rent abatement of Minimum Rent for each day of delay of the Commencement Date, not resulting from delays by Tenant or changes in the work by Tenant, that the Commencement Date is extended beyond April 1, 2002. 33. OPERATING COSTS. For purposes of calculating Operating Costs in accordance with Article 4 of this Lease, increases in Controlled Expenses, as defined below, in operation of the Project will not be greater than 5% on an average yearly basis over the term of this Lease; provided, however, any increase in Controlled Expenses in any one year or consecutive years may be more than 5% annually, but increases in Controlled Expenses over the Lease term will not exceed 5% per year on an average basis. "Controlled Expenses" will mean all Operating Costs as defined and calculated in accordance with Article 4 above, except for real estate taxes, insurance premiums, and utility charges (including, without limitation, steam, fuel, water, sewer, storm drainage, and electricity). The aforementioned limit on Controlled Expenses will be for the purposes of calculations under Article 4 only and Tenant's obligation to pay Operating Costs and will not act as a limit on the amount that Landlord will actually expend for such purposes. -2- 34. RENEWAL. Tenant will have the right, to be exercised as provided below, to extend the term of this Lease for an additional term of five years commencing on the first day of the 62nd month after the Commencement Date and ending on the last day of the 121st month after the Commencement Date, upon the following terms and conditions: (a) Tenant will not be in default under any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease, and Tenant will not have assigned this Lease or sublet the Demised Premises (except for assignments or subleases to a Related Party); (b) The Minimum Rent for the Demised Premises will be the number of rentable square feet in the Demised Premises (the same to be measured in Landlord's standard manner) multiplied by the then existing market rate Landlord is asking of its existing tenants or prospective tenants for comparable space in the Building, or (ii) if no comparable space in the Building is then being offered for Lease, the Minimum Rent rate which Landlord or other landlords are asking of tenants or prospective tenants for comparable space in other comparable developments in the area; (c) Other economic terms of this Lease throughout the renewal term will be comparable to (i) those which Landlord is asking of its existing tenants or prospective tenants for comparable space in the Building, or (ii) if no comparable space in the Building is then being offered for lease, the highest rates which Landlord or other landlords are asking of tenants or prospective tenants for comparable space in other comparable developments in the area; (d) Tenant will have notified Landlord, in the manner provided in Article 25 above, not later than 180 days and not sooner than 270 days prior to the expiration of the term of Tenant's election to exercise this right of renewal, and otherwise this right will be null and void; (e) There will be no further right of renewal beyond this five year renewal period; and (f) All of the other terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease will remain in full force and effect. 35. LETTER OF CREDIT. Tenant will obtain and deliver to Landlord an irrevocable letter of credit in the initial amount of $50,000 issued to Landlord by a bank acceptable to Landlord ("Bank"). Such letter of credit will have a term commencing as of the date of execution of this Lease and ending on the last day of the 61st month after the Commencement Date. The form of such letter of credit will be subject to Landlord's right of approval or disapproval and will be in the form attached to this Lease as Exhibit E, attached hereto and by this --------- reference incorporated herein, and will, in substance and among other things, provide that: (a) such letter of credit is irrevocable and Landlord, or its successors in interest, may at any time "call" for any portion of the then uncalled upon amount thereof without regard to and without the Bank inquiring as to the rights or lack of right of the holder of the letter -3- of credit to effect such calls or the existence or lack of existence of any defenses by Tenant with respect thereto; (b) the Bank agrees for the benefit of Landlord to renew such letter of credit each successive year (if only a one-year letter of credit is delivered) unless, with respect to any given renewal year, the Bank has notified Landlord (by certified mail, return receipt requested) not less than 90 days prior to the expiration thereof that the Bank declines to renew the letter of credit and as a matter between Landlord and Tenant, Tenant agrees that in the event the Bank so declines to renew the original letter of credit or any renewal letter of credit as herein provided, Landlord will have the right (notwithstanding the fact that no default exists on the part of the Tenant) to "draw down" the entire amount of the then current letter of credit at any time prior to the expiration thereof and Landlord will thereafter hold all the proceeds of the letter of credit (together with any theretofore existing cash security) as an entirely cash security deposit and to whatever extent such security is at any time less than $50,000, subject to the reductions set forth in Subparagraph (d) below, Tenant agrees to immediately replenish such security or any amount thereof used or theretofore used and applied by Landlord to cure any default of Tenant; if the letter of credit will not be renewed, Tenant shall have the right to replace the letter of credit within 30 days prior to and in no event later than 20 days prior to its expiration date, if the bank and form of letter of credit is satisfactory to Landlord, in its sole discretion; (c) the premium or purchase price of each such letter of credit will be paid entirely in advance by Tenant and Tenant will submit evidence of payment of such purchase price to Landlord; (d) on the condition that Tenant has not been in monetary default under this Lease, the face amount of the letter of credit shall without act of Landlord or Tenant or the Bank reduce to $25,000 on the first day of the 37th month after the Commencement Date under this Lease, but the fact of such reduction will not affect or diminish the right of the holder thereof to receive any "draws" against such letter of credit which may have been demanded in writing from the Bank prior to any such anniversary date (that is, if a demand has been made upon the Bank prior to 10:01 a.m. of the date upon which such a reduction is to take place, the holder of such letter of credit will nevertheless be entitled to such "draw" that has been theretofore demanded but has not then as yet been paid by the Bank); and (e) in the event of insolvency of the Bank or failure of the Bank to honor any demand by the holder of such letter of credit, Tenant will immediately post with Landlord a substitute letter of credit entirely satisfactory to Landlord or, if Tenant is unable to provide such a letter of credit, cash in the amount of the face amount of such letter of credit (less any "draws" theretofore actually received by Landlord). The failure of the Bank to honor the letter of credit or the failure of Tenant to otherwise comply with the provisions of this Article will at the option of Landlord be deemed a default under the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease. -4- Landlord agrees, except for the matters contained in (b) above, not to draw upon the letter of credit unless Landlord claims default by Tenant with respect to the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease, but if Landlord does effect such a "draw" Tenant will replenish the amount of security so drawn by depositing with Landlord cash in the amount which Landlord then "drew" from the letter of credit and used to reduce any amounts due under the Lease from Tenant. Landlord may at Landlord's option resort to the cash security first or to the letter of credit security first or to any combination of the two as Landlord in Landlord's sole and exclusive discretion may determine and the fact that Landlord makes a demand upon the Bank under the letter of credit will not preclude Landlord from resorting to the cash security, for the same default, in the event that the Bank for any reason fails to honor Landlord's demand or if there is insufficient funds to pay the "draw" requested by Landlord from such letter of credit. 36. RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the option to add the first of the following spaces to come available: (i) that certain space located on the second floor of the Building shown hatched in black on Exhibit C, attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein and known - --------- as Suite 250A ("Suite 250A") or (ii) that certain space located on the first floor of the Building shown hatched in black on Exhibit F, attached hereto and --------- by this reference incorporated herein and known as Suite 101A ("Suite 101A"), if and when Landlord makes such space available for leasing, to the premises previously demised under this Lease upon the following terms and conditions (either Suite 250A or Suite 101A, depending on which first comes available for leasing, will be referred to herein as "Space A"): (a) In the event that Space A becomes or is about to become available for leasing and any other tenants in the Building with prior rights to Tenant, which with respect to Suite 250A is Aztek Engineering or any successor, assign or subtenant thereof, do not exercise their option to renew or expand or otherwise occupy Space A, Landlord will notify Tenant of such fact and Tenant will have five business days within which to exercise said option, in the manner provided in Article 25 above, to acquire Space A as of the day after the date the same is vacated by its then existing tenant (or, if the same be then vacant, on a date fixed by Landlord in said notice but not sooner than the first day of the next succeeding week); and (b) In the event of exercise of this option by Tenant, Space A will be added to the premises previously demised as of the day after the same is so vacated or, if vacant, the date set forth in Landlord's notice, which addition will be upon the following basis: (c) Space A will be added for the balance of the term of this Lease; (d) Tenant will accept Space A in its then "as is" condition; (e) If Space A is added to the Demised Premises on or before 180 days after the Commencement Date, the Minimum Rent for Space A will be calculated at the same per square foot rates as in effect from time to time as applicable to the Demised Premises. If Space A is added -5- to the Demised Premises after 180 days after the Commencement Date, the Minimum Rent for Space A will be the Minimum Rent Landlord is then offering to similar tenants for similar premises, or if no such premises is then available, the rate similar landlords are offering to similar tenants for similar premises; (f) The percentage of increase or decrease of taxes and operating costs to be borne by Tenant pursuant to Article 4 of this Lease will be increased accordingly; and (g) All of the other terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease will apply to Space A. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth above, it is agreed that (1) Tenant will not be permitted to exercise any of its rights contained in this Article at any time when the lease is not in effect or at any time when Tenant is in default under any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements of this Lease, and (2) in the event that Tenant assigns this lease or sublets any portion of the premises at any time demised, this Article will be of no further force or effect, and (3) Tenant may not exercise the option contained in this Article if the effective date of addition of Space A to the premises previously demised would be at any time during the last 12 months of the term of this lease. The fact of any proposed or actual assignment or subletting by any tenant of Space A, or the default of said tenant or his desire to terminate his lease will not make the same "available" for exercise of Tenant's rights hereunder unlessLandlord elects in writing to Tenant to treatthe same as causing "availability," and Landlord will have the right to renew or extend the tenancy of any present or future tenant of Space A without first offering the same to Tenant. This option will be in effect during the first 61 months after the Commencement Date, but will not be effective during any extension or renewal of this Lease. If Tenant does not exercise this option within the five-business day period referenced above, time being strictly of the essence, Landlord will be entitled to market the space at any terms and lease the space at any terms to prospective tenants. If a lease is entered into between Landlord and a prospective tenant within 180 days after Landlord offered Space A to Tenant, Tenant's rights under this Article will be terminated and of no further force or effect. If Landlord does not so enter into a lease for Space A within such 180-day period, Landlord will once again offer Space A to Tenant pursuant to subparagraph A above before entering into a new lease with a prospective Tenant. If Tenant exercises its rights with respect to either Suite 250A or Suite 101A, depending on which first comes available, Tenant's rights under this Article will terminate and be of no further force or effect, and Tenant will have no further rights to Suite 250A or Suite 101A, except with respect to the then exercised option for one of such suites. 37. PARKING. Tenant, at no additional rental cost to Tenant, will have the right to use 41 unassigned unreserved and uncovered parking spaces in the parking lots for the Building during the term of this Lease. -6- 38. CONTROLLING EFFECT. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of the foregoing lease form and the Addendum, the provisions of this Addendum will control the covenants and obligations of the parties.

Commencing on the Extension Term -------------------------------- Commencement Date, Tenant shall be entitled to the non-exclusive right to use up to 98 parking spaces at the Building's surface parking facilities, at no cost to Tenant. All parking is available on a first come-first serve basis. 8. Security Deposit. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a cash security ---------------- deposit in the amount of $60,000.00. Tenant may substitute such cash security deposit with a letter of credit substantially in the form attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit B, subject to Landlord's reasonable acceptance of --------- the form as modified. 9. Landlord's Notice Address. As of the date hereof, Landlord's Address ------------------------- shall be: "Cornerstone Suburban Office, L.P., c/o Cornerstone Real Estate Advisers, Inc., One Financial Plaza, 17th Floor, Hartford, Connecticut 06103-2604, with a copy to: R.M. Bradley & Co., Inc., 73 Tremont Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02108". 10. Right of First Offer. Provided that Tenant is not in default of its -------------------- obligations under the Lease (or no event has occurred which, but for the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute a default), and subject to any existing rights, including renewal rights, of other tenants in the Building to any portion of the First Offer Space (as hereinafter defined), Tenant shall have one right of first offer to lease up to approximately 5,216 rentable square feet of office space located on the fifth floor of the Building contiguous to the Reduced Premises (the "First Offer Space") during the Term of this Lease in accordance with the following terms and conditions: (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, prior to Landlord entering into a lease for all or any part of the First Offer Space with a prospective third party tenant ("Third Party"), Landlord shall first offer in writing the portion of the First Offer Space for lease to Tenant on the same terms and conditions quoted to the Third Party. 2 (b) Within ten business days after Tenant receives said offer from Landlord, Tenant shall either accept or reject such offer by written notice to Landlord. Failure by Tenant to deliver to Landlord a written acceptance thereof within such period shall be deemed a rejection by Tenant of such offer. (c) If Tenant rejects or is deemed to have rejected said offer, then this right of first offer shall be deemed to have terminated and shall be of no further force or effect. Landlord may thereafter lease that portion of the First Offer Space to any Third Party without any further obligation to Tenant hereunder, whether or not such terms and conditions are more or less favorable than those offered to Tenant. (d) If Tenant accepts said offer in accordance with the provisions hereof, then Landlord and Tenant shall thereupon execute an amendment to this Lease (the "First Offer Space Amendment") adding the First Offer Space to this Lease. If Tenant fails to execute the First Offer Space Amendment within 20 days after Landlord furnishes same to Tenant, then the acceptance of Landlord's offer shall be deemed to have been rejected by Tenant and thereupon the provisions of Section 10(c) hereof shall apply. (e) Prior to Landlord's execution of the First Offer Space Amendment, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord its most current publicly available financial statements of Tenant prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. As a condition precedent to Landlord's adding the First Offer Space to this Lease and Landlord executing the First Offer Space Amendment, Landlord may evaluate and approve the financial condition of Tenant, and such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Landlord does not approve the financial condition of Tenant, then Tenant's right of first offer shall terminate and shall immediately be of no further force or effect, and Landlord shall be entitled to lease the First Offer Space to any Third Party in accordance with the provisions of this Section. 11. Condition of Reduced Premises. Tenant's retaining possession of the ----------------------------- Reduced Premises as of the Extension Term Commencement Date shall be conclusive evidence that the Reduced Premises were in good order and satisfactory condition when Tenant retained possession. Tenant retains the Reduced Premises in an "As Is" condition and acknowledges that no representation regarding the condition of the Reduced Premises or the Building has been made by or on behalf of Landlord or relied upon by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided herein, Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be obligated to alter, remodel, decorate, clean or improve the Reduced Premises or the Building (or to provide Tenant with any credit or allowance for the same). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall contribute up to a maximum of $167,442.00 towards the improvement of the Reduced Premises in accordance with Exhibit C attached hereto and incorporated herein. --------- 12. Condition of Relinquished Premises. Tenant shall surrender the ---------------------------------- Relinquished Premises as of the date hereof in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Lease, except as otherwise set forth herein. Tenant hereby represents and covenants that nothing has been or shall be done or suffered whereby the Lease or the term or estate thereby granted or the Relinquished Premises or any part thereof, or any alterations, decorations, installation, additions or improvement in and to the Relinquished Premises or any part thereof, have been or shall be encumbered in any way whatsoever, and that Tenant owns and shall own Tenant's interest in the Lease to the Relinquished Premises and has and shall have good right to surrender the Relinquished Premises, and that no one other than Tenant has acquired or shall acquire Tenant's interest in the Relinquished Premises, or any part thereof, or in or to such alterations, decorations, installation, additions and/or improvements or any part thereof. Landlord and its agents and servants may immediately or at any time hereafter re-enter the Relinquished Premises, or any part thereof. 13. Brokerage Commissions. Tenant and Landlord each represent to the other --------------------- party that other than R.M. Bradley & Co., Inc. ("Broker"), (i) neither party has dealt with any real estate broker, salesperson or finder in connection with this Amendment, (ii) no other such person initiated or participated in the negotiation of this Amendment and (iii) no such person is entitled to any commission in connection herewith. Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord, its property manager and their respective employees harmless from and against any and all liabilities, claims, demands, actions, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) arising from any claim for a fee or commission made by any broker other than Broker claiming to have acted by or on behalf of Tenant in connection with this Amendment. 3 14. Ratification; Binding Effect. Except as hereby amended, the Lease and ---------------------------- all covenants, agreements, terms and conditions thereof shall continue in full force and effect, subject to the terms and provisions thereof and hereof, and is ratified and confirmed by the parties hereto. Lionbridge does hereby further ratify, confirm and assume all of the obligations and liabilities of ICI as tenant arising under, or relating to, the Lease, as amended, and any of the other documents executed and delivered to Landlord by or on behalf of Tenant or its successors in connection with the Lease, as amended.

Conflict. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Lease -------- and the terms of this Amendment, the terms of this Amendment shall control. 16. Recitals. The recitals to this Amendment and the facts set forth -------- therein and each writing referred to herein as being annexed hereto as an exhibit or otherwise designated herein as an exhibit hereto are hereby incorporated herein by reference. 17. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of ------------ counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original agreement and all of which when taken together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement.
