		4.2.5.5	a management fee equal to 3.25% of the aggregate of the Net Rent, the Tenant’s Proportionate

    27


    




		4.4	Estimation of Additional Rent - Before the
commencement of each Accounting Period, the Landlord shall notify the Tenant of the reasonable estimated amount of Additional Rent
for such Accounting Period. The Landlord, acting reasonably, may, during an Accounting Period, re-estimate any items of Additional
Rent and may by notice to the Tenant fix new monthly installments for the then remaining balance of the Accounting Period so that
such items will have been entirely paid during such Accounting Period. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary,
as soon as bills for all or any portion of the costs and expenses payable by the Tenant as Additional Rent are received by the
Landlord, the Landlord may bill the Tenant for any amount charged in excess of the estimated amount, and the Tenant shall pay the
Landlord such amounts so billed (less all amounts previously paid by the Tenant on the basis of the Landlord’s original estimate
thereof) as Additional Rent within thirty (30) days after demand.



 


Within a reasonable period of time (not exceeding four
(4) months) after the end of the Accounting Period, the Landlord shall provide the Tenant with an audited statement prepared by
an independent chartered accountant of the Landlord for the relevant Accounting Period of Operating Costs, Real Estate Taxes and
all other items of Additional Rent payable by the Tenant which the Landlord has estimated in advance. Such statement shall be accompanied
by the certificate from the Landlord’s auditors described in the next paragraph.


 


If the total of the monthly installments paid by the Tenant
in respect of estimated Additional Rent for such Accounting Period is less than the amount of Additional Rent payable by the Tenant
for such Accounting Period shown on such statement, the Tenant shall pay the difference to the Landlord on the earlier of the due
date of the next monthly payment of Net Rent or within thirty (30) days of receipt of such statement. If the total of such monthly
installments paid is greater than the amount of the Additional Rent payable by the Tenant for such Accounting Period, the difference
shall, at the option of the Landlord, be repaid to the Tenant with such statement, or be applied in payment of other amounts owing
by the Tenant, or be applied in reduction of future payments due under this Lease, the whole without interest. The Landlord shall
provide the Tenant with a certificate of its independent chartered accountant confirming the fairness of the Landlord’s determination
of Operating Costs, which shall be binding on the parties.


 


The Landlord shall, in keeping with sound first-class
office building management practices in Montreal, minimize Operating Costs and make all reasonable attempts to obtain proceeds
of insurance as well as to exercise all reasonable recourses available to the Landlord against any contractor, builder, supplier
or any third party in order to reduce the Tenant’s liability for Operating Costs. In allocating Operating Costs, Real Estate
Taxes and other costs to the various components of the Building, the Landlord shall act fairly and reasonably, and, with regard
to allocation of Real Estate Taxes and other taxes, shall apply the method used and/or imposed and/or recommended by the competent
authority.


 






     


    28


    

The Landlord shall operate the Building in a manner befitting
of a prudent Landlord of similar first-class buildings of comparable age in downtown Montreal. Furthermore, the Landlord shall
provide the Tenant, no later than four (4) months after the end of each Accounting Period, with a detailed statement from its auditors
(who shall be a firm of independent chartered accountants) certifying that the Operating Costs have been calculated in accordance
with this Lease. Upon receipt of the audited statements and provided the Tenant has not, either in whole or in part, assigned the
Lease to any third party which is not an Affiliate of the Tenant, the Tenant may, in writing, request clarification from the Landlord
with respect to the amount of Operating Costs. The Landlord shall, acting diligently, use all of its reasonable efforts to provide
the Tenant with a reasonable response to the Tenant’s request. If, as a result of said clarification, it is determined that
the Tenant has made an overpayment of Operating Costs, the Landlord shall reimburse the amount of said overpayment to the Tenant
within thirty (30) days of said determination. Should the reverse be true, the Tenant agrees to settle any underpayment of Operating
Costs within the same delay. The Tenant shall not withhold payment of Operating Costs pending its request for clarification of
Operating Costs.


 


Provided the Tenant has not assigned the Lease to any
third party which is not an Affiliate of the Tenant, has exercised the foregoing right and still is not satisfied as to the accuracy
of the Landlord’s calculation of Operating Costs, then the Tenant shall have the right to have its external auditors review
the Operating Costs for their accuracy and reliability. Such a review by the Tenant’s external auditors shall be at the Tenant’s
entire expense, including any expenses incurred by the Landlord as a result thereof, and shall be conducted during the Landlord’s
business hours and after a reasonable written notice to the Landlord to this effect. Should it be determined, however, that the
Tenant has made an overpayment of Operating Costs, the Landlord shall reimburse the amount of said overpayment to the Tenant within
thirty (30) days of said determination and the Tenant shall not be responsible to the Landlord for any expenses incurred by the
Landlord as a result of said process.


 


		4.5	Adjustment of Rent – If and whenever the Rentable Area of the Premises is revised,
as provided pursuant to this Lease, the Net Rent for any year of the Term or relevant portion thereof affected by such revision
shall be recalculated by multiplying such revised Rentable Area of the Premises by the applicable amount of Net Rent per square
foot (square meter) of Rentable Area of the Premises for such year of the Term and the amount of the annual Net Rent for such year
of the Term, or relevant portion thereof, and the equal monthly installments for such year of the Term, or relevant portion thereof,
shall be amended accordingly. There shall be a corresponding recalculation of the Tenant’s Proportionate Share and of amounts
payable as Additional Rent. Upon any such recalculation, the Landlord and the Tenant shall make the appropriate adjustments in
respect of earlier payments of Net Rent and Additional Rent affected by any such recalculation.



 



     


    29


    




		4.6	Cash Allowance – The Landlord agrees to pay to the Tenant in respect of each
of Space “B”, Space “C” and Space “D”, not later than thirty (30) days following their respective
Commencement Date, a cash allowance equal to NINETEEN DOLLARS AND FORTY-FOUR CENTS ($19.44) per square foot of their respective
rentable area. It is expressly understood that said cash allowance shall be granted to the Tenant in lieu of eighteen (18) months
of free Net Rent. There shall be no such allowance granted with respect to Spaces “A”, “E” and “F”.



 


ARTICLE 5


 


		5	TAXES AND operating costs



 


		5.1	Real Estate Taxes Payable by the Landlord – The Landlord shall discharge when
due all Real Estate Taxes payable by the Tenant, as set out in Section 5.2, but it may defer such payment or compliance to the
fullest extent permitted by law.



 


If the system of real estate taxation shall be altered
or varied and any new tax or levy shall be levied or imposed on the Building and/or the Lands and/or the revenues therefrom and/or
Landlord in substitution for and/or in addition to Real Estate Taxes presently levied or imposed on immovables in the city, town
or municipality in which the Building and Land are situate, then any such new tax or levy shall be included within the term “Real
Estate Taxes” and the provisions of this Article 5 shall apply mutatis mutandis.


 


The amount of the Real Estate Taxes which shall be deemed
to have been levied or imposed with respect to the Building and the Lands shall be such amount as the legal authority imposing
Real Estate Taxes shall have attributed to the Building and the Lands respectively, or, in the absence of such attribution, or,
if such legal authority shall include other immovables other than the Building and the Lands in imposing such Real Estate Taxes,
such amount as Landlord in the exercise of reasonable judgment shall establish.


 


		5.2	Real Estate Taxes Payable by the Tenant



 


		5.2.1	The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, as Additional Rent, for each Accounting Period which the
Landlord establishes to compute Real Estate Taxes occurring in whole or in part within the Term, its Proportionate Share of Real
Estate Taxes attributable to such Accounting Period. Such Additional Rent shall be payable by the Tenant to the Landlord no later
than the tax due date or such other date which may be specified by the Landlord to the Tenant and which shall not be more than
thirty (30) days before the tax due date. The Landlord shall furnish to the Tenant upon the Tenant’s specific written request
copies of all notices of valuation and assessment and all tax bills Landlord receives.



 



     


    30


    




		5.2.2	The share of Real Estate Taxes payable by the Tenant pursuant to Subsection 5.2.1 shall be the

other tenants of the Development pursuant to paragraph 5.2.2.2 and similar provisions in the leases of such other tenants; and



 


		5.2.2.2	in the event that there is a separate assessment for the value of the Premises by a lawful public
authority, the amount obtained by multiplying the appropriate commercial rate or rates for the relevant Accounting Period by the

		5.2.3	If the Landlord so requests in writing, the Tenant shall promptly provide the Landlord with a copy
of any separate tax bill or separate assessment notice that it receives for the Premises or any part thereof. If, as a result of
changes in existing Applicable Laws, in any Accounting Period the Tenant is prohibited by law from making payments of Real Estate
Taxes directly to the Landlord, then it shall pay to the appropriate taxing authorities all Real Estate Taxes payable in respect
of the Premises and promptly deliver to the Landlord receipts evidencing such payment. The Landlord and the Tenant will make an
adjustment within thirty (30) days after the final tax bills are issued for such Accounting Period and the Tenant will pay to the
Landlord the amount by which the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Real Estate Taxes for such Accounting Period exceeds the
amount of Real Estate Taxes actually paid by the Tenant or, as the case may be, the Landlord shall pay to the Tenant the amount
by which the Real Estate Taxes actually paid by the Tenant exceed the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Real Estate Taxes.



 


		5.3	Landlord’s Contestation of Real Estate Taxes -
The Landlord alone shall be entitled to appeal any governmental assessment or determination of the value of the Building or any
portion thereof whether or not the assessment or determination affects the amount of Real Estate Taxes or other taxes, rates, duties,
levies or assessments to be paid by the Tenant. The Landlord alone shall have the right to contest, appeal, object or litigate
the imposition of any Real Estate Taxes.



 


The Landlord shall have no obligation to contest, object
to or litigate the levying or imposition of any Real Estate Taxes and the Landlord may settle, compromise, consent to, waive or
otherwise determine in its discretion any Real Estate Taxes without notice to, consent or approval of the Tenant.

		5.4	Business, Water and Other Taxes – The Tenant shall be liable for and pay to
the competent authorities having jurisdiction or to the Landlord or the Co-owners, as the case may be, all water taxes, Business
Taxes, garbage taxes and all other taxes imposed or levied upon the Premises or the business carried on therein, all other rates
and taxes, present or future, which are or may become payable by the Tenant as tenant or occupant thereof and any and all such
taxes that may be levied upon the Leasehold Improvements in the Premises, notwithstanding any change in the method of calculation,
method of collection or nature of such taxes. For greater certainty, this Section 5.4 shall not be construed so as to render the
Tenant liable for any income, profit, inheritance, succession or transfer taxes or levies or tax on capital or large corporations
tax of the Landlord or the Co-owners.



 


If, by law, regulation or otherwise, business taxes and
water taxes or other similar rates and taxes or taxes upon Tenant’s fixtures, equipment, machinery or upon alterations and/or
improvements are made payable by landlords or proprietors, or if the mode of collecting such taxes and/or rates be so altered as
to make Landlord liable therefor instead of Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord prior to the due date but in any event within
seven (7) days after demand upon Tenant the amount of the charge imposed on Landlord as a result of such change, and shall save
Landlord harmless from any cost or expense in respect thereof.


 


		5.5	Appeal of Business Taxes – The Tenant may appeal the imposition of any taxes,
rates, duties, levies and assessments payable directly by it to the taxing authorities pursuant to Section 5.4 and may postpone
payment thereof to the extent permitted by law if the Tenant is diligently proceeding with an appeal, provided that (i) such postponement
does not render the Development, or any part thereof; subject to sale or forfeiture and does not render the Landlord liable to
prosecution, penalty, fine or other liability and (ii) upon final determination of such appeal, the Tenant promptly pays the amount
determined to be payable.



 


		5.6	Receipts by the Tenant – Whenever requested by the Landlord, the Tenant shall
forthwith upon demand deliver to the Landlord copies of receipts for payment of all Business Taxes and other taxes, rates, duties,
levies and assessments payable by the Tenant under this Article 5 and furnish such other information in connection therewith as
the Landlord may reasonably require.



 


		5.7	Sales Taxes – Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, the Tenant
shall pay to the Landlord an amount equal to any and all taxes imposed on the Tenant and required to be remitted by the Landlord

characterized as a goods and services tax, sales tax, value added tax or otherwise (herein in this Section 5.7 called Tenant’s
Sales Taxes”), it bang the intention of the parties that the Landlord shall be fully reimbursed by the Tenant with respect
to any and all Tenant’s Sales Taxes and Landlord’s Sales Taxes. The amount of Tenant’s Sales Taxes payable to
the Landlord shall be calculated by the Landlord in accordance with applicable legislation and imposed against the amounts due
by the Tenant to the Landlord under the terms of this Lease and shall be paid to the Landlord at the same time as the amounts to
which the Tenant’s Sales Taxes so applied are payable to the Landlord under the terms of this Lease, and the Landlord may
make any estimates necessary for the purpose of such calculations in the same manner as provided in this Lease for payment of Operating
Costs.



 






     


    32


    

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Lease to the
contrary, the amounts payable by the Tenant under this Section 5.7 shall be deemed not to be Net Rent or Additional Rent, but the
Landlord shall have all of the same remedies and rights of recovery of such amounts as it has for recovery of Rent under this Lease.

and in the manner reasonably determined from time to time by Landlord, of any real estate surtax including, without limitation,
the Surtax on Non-Residential Immovables, which is or may be levied or imposed against or in respect of the Lands or the Development,
or any part thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Landlord may allocate the entirety of such surtaxes
among the tenants of all or any part of the Development based on their respective Proportionate Share.



 


Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Lease,
it is agreed that any reimbursements or credits of or in respect of Surtax on Non-Residential Immovables for vacant premises shall
be for the sole benefit of the Landlord and the Co-owners. Therefore, the amounts of such reimbursements shall not be deducted
from or otherwise reduce the amount(s) of Surtax on Non-Residential Immoveables which the Tenant would have otherwise paid had
there not been any such credit or reimbursement.

Rent upon receipt of an invoice of the Landlord for such additional premiums. The Landlord warrants that normal use of the Premises
for the purposes permitted by this Lease does not and shall not contravene or be prohibited by any of the Landlord’s insurance

right, without the written consent of the Landlord, to enter into, consent to, or permit a Transfer to an Affiliate of the Tenant,
provided the Tenant advises the Landlord in writing prior to the Transfer and provided the Tenant remains jointly and severally
responsible, without benefit of division or discussion, with the transferee for any and all obligations of the Tenant under the
Lease, in no event, shall the Tenant enter into, consent to, or permit a Transfer to a third party which is not an Affiliate of
the Tenant, whose use of the Premises would be in conflict with any then existing exclusivity in the Building.


 



     


    64


    




		15.2	Landlord’s Consent – Notwithstanding any statutory provision to the contrary,
it shall not be considered unreasonable for the Landlord to withhold its consent if, without limiting any other factors or circumstances
which the Landlord may reasonably take into account:



 


		15.2.1	the Tenant is then in default under this Lease;



 


		15.2.2	the proposed Transfer would be or could result in violation or breach of any covenants or restrictions
made or granted by the Landlord to other tenants or occupants, or prospective tenants or occupants, of the Development;



 


		15.2.3	in the Landlord’s reasonable opinion, the reputation, type and quality of business and business
history of the proposed Transferee is not satisfactory;



 


		15.2.4	the proposed Transfer is to an existing tenant or other occupant of space in the Development and
the Landlord has or will have during the next six (6) months suitable space for rent in the Building for such proposed tenant;



 


		15.2.5	the use of the Premises by the proposed Transferee, could result in excessive use of the elevators
or other Building Systems, be inconsistent with the image and standards of the Development, expose the occupants of the Development
to risk of harm, damage or interference with their use and enjoyment thereof or is prohibited by the Lease;



 


		15.2.6	where the proposed Transferee does not intend to physically occupy the demises and carry on business
from the Premises; or



 


		15.2.7	where the Landlord has reasonable grounds to believe that the proposed Transferee is not sufficiently
financially responsible to fulfill all of its financial obligations, including, without limitation, the financial obligations of
the Tenant pursuant to this Lease.



 


Any consent by the Landlord to a Transfer shall not constitute
a waiver of the necessity for such consent to any subsequent Transfer.


 


Under no circumstances will (i) any occupation of all
or part of the Premises by any proposed Transferee or Landlord’s tolerance thereof; (ii) the payment of Rent or other amounts
by any proposed Transferee; (iii) the consent to any previous Transfer, constitute a waiver of any obligation of the Tenant to
obtain consent to any Transfer, nor will any of the foregoing be construed as constituting a consent to the proposed Transfer.


 






     


    65


    

For greater certainty, the provisions of this Section
15.2 shall not apply to a Transfer from the Tenant to an Affiliate.


 


		15.3	Landlord’s Option – If the Tenant intends to effect a Transfer, the Tenant
shall give prior notice to the Landlord of such intent specifying the identity of the Transferee, the type of Transfer contemplated,
the part of the Premises affected thereby, and the financial and other terms of the Transfer, and shall provide such financial,
business or other reasonable information relating to the proposed Transferee and its principals as the Landlord or any Secured
Creditor reasonably requires, together with copies of all documents which record the particulars of the proposed Transfer. The
Landlord shall, within fifteen (15) days after having received such notice and all requested information, notify the Tenant either
that:



 


		15.3.1	it consents or does not consent to the Transfer but at no time shall such consent be refused without
a serious reason; or



 


		15.3.2	if there is Excess Rent (as hereinafter defined), it elects to terminate this Lease as to the whole
or the part, as the case may be, of the Premises affected by the proposed Transfer.



 


If the Landlord elects to terminate this Lease pursuant
to Sub-section 15.3.2, it shall stipulate in its notice the termination date of this Lease, which date shall be no less than thirty
(30) days nor more than ninety (90) days following the giving of notice of such election. If the Landlord elects to terminate this
Lease pursuant to Sub-section 15.3.2, the Tenant shall notify the Landlord within ten (10) days thereafter of the Tenant’s
intention either to refrain from such Transfer or to acquit termination of this Lease or the part thereof in respect of which the
Landlord has exercised its rights. If the Tenant fails to deliver such notice within such ten (10) days or notifies the Landlord
that it accepts the Landlord’s termination, this Lease will, as to the whole or affected part of the Premises, as the case
may be, be terminated on the date of termination stipulated by the Landlord in its notice of election to terminate. If the Tenant
notifies the Landlord within ten (10) days that it intends to refrain from such Transfer, then the Landlord’s election to
terminate this Lease shall become void.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this
Section 15.3 shall not apply to a Transfer to an Affiliate of the Tenant.


 


		15.4	Conditions of Transfer



 


		15.4.1	If there is a permitted Transfer, the Landlord may collect Rent from the Transferee and apply the
amount collected to the Rent payable under this Lease but no acceptance by the Landlord of any payments by a Transferee or any
acceptance of the Transferee as a Tenant shall be deemed to be a waiver of the Tenant’s covenants or a release of the Tenant
from the further performance by the Tenant of its obligations under this Lease. Save and except in the case of a transfer to an
Affiliate of the Tenant, any consent by the Landlord shall be subject to the Tenant and Transferee executing, prior to the Transfer
being made, an agreement with the Landlord agreeing that the Transferee will be bound by all of the terms of this Lease, and except
in the case of a sublease, that the Transferee will be so bound as if it had originally executed this Lease as tenant.



 



     


    66


    




		15.4.2	Notwithstanding any Transfer permitted or consented to by the Landlord, the Tenant shall remain
jointly and severally liable with the Transferee for the due fulfillment of all of the obligations undertaken in this Lease by
the Tenant and shall not be released from the performance of any of the terms, obligations and conditions of this Lease, the Tenant
hereby waiving the benefits of division, and discussion.



 


		15.4.3	Save and except in the case of a Transfer to an Affiliate of the Tenant, no Transfer shall be valid
and no Transferee shall take possession of the Premises or any part thereof until an executed duplicate original of such assignment
or sublease has been delivered to the Landlord.



 


		15.4.4	“Excess Rent” for the purposes of this Lease means the amount by which the aggregate
of oil amounts payable by the transferee or sub-tenant pursuant to a Transfer as rent, exceeds, when calculated, the total Net
Rent and Additional Rent payable by the Tenant to the Landlord in accordance with this Lease (calculated on a proportional basis
in the case of a sub-lease of only a part of the Premises), less reasonable costs incurred by the Tenant for additional improvements
to the Premises (or in the case of a sub-lease, to the part of the Premises subject to such sub-lease) made by the Tenant at its
own cost for the transferee or sub-tenant in question together with reasonable leasing fees (for example broker fees or legal fees)
paid by the Tenant with respect to such Transfer. In calculating the amount to be subtracted from Excess Rent for each period of
monthly payment with respect to the costs of the Tenant for such Transfer, such costs will be depreciated without interest on a
straight line basis over the term of such Transfer.



 


		15.4.5	If the Transfer in respect of which consent is required and has been given is not completed within
ninety (90) days of the date of such consent, then such consent shall, at the Landlord’s option, become void, upon written
notice to the Tenant.



 


		15.4.6	Notwithstanding the effective date of any permitted Transfer as between the Tenant and the Transferee,
all Rent for the month in which such effective date occurs shall be paid in advance by the Tenant so that the Landlord will not
be required to accept partial payments of Rent for such month from either the Tenant or Transferee.



 



     


    67


    




		15.4.7	As a condition to the Landlord’s consent, the Landlord may inter alia require the undertaking
or guarantee of such Transferee which is not an Affiliate of the Tenant not to engage in business activities which conflict with
the provisions of any “non-competition” or “exclusive” provisions of other leases or accepted offers to
lease or agreements entered into by the Landlord in respect of the Development prior to the date of the Transfer or are otherwise
prohibited by the provisions of Section 10.2 hereof.



 


		15.4.8	The agreements referred to in this Section 15.4 and any document evidencing the Landlord’s
consent to any Transfer to an entity which is not an Affiliate of the Tenant shall, at the Landlord’s option, be prepared
by the Landlord or its solicitors at the Tenant’s reasonable cost.



 


		15.5	Change of Control – If the Tenant is at any time a corporation or partnership,
any actual or proposed Change of Control in such corporation or partnership or in any corporation or group of corporations which
controls the Tenant shall be deemed to be a Transfer and subject to all of the provisions of this Article 15. The Tenant shall
make available to the Landlord or its representatives all of its corporate or partnership records, as the case may be, for inspection
at all reasonable times, in order to ascertain whether any Change of Control has occurred.



 


This Section 15.5 shall not apply to the Tenant or any
of its wholly-owned subsidiaries.


 


		15.6	No Advertising – The Tenant shall not advertise that the whole or any part
of the Premises is available for a Transfer and shall not permit any broker or other person to do so unless the text and format
of such advertisement is approved in writing by the Landlord. No such advertisement shall contain any reference to any of the financial
conditions applicable to the Premises.



 


		15.7	Cost of Transfer – The Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by
the Landlord in the consideration, approval or rejection of any request for the Landlord’s consent pursuant to this Section
15, including solicitor’s fees incurred by the Landlord.



 


		15.8	Assignment by Landlord – The Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to
sell, transfer, lease, charge or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its interest in the Development or in this Lease. In the
event of any sale, transfer, lease, charge or other disposition and to the extent that the assignee of the Landlord’s interest
in this Lease agrees with the Landlord to assume the obligations of the Landlord under this Lease, the Landlord shall thereupon,
and without further agreement, be released of all liability under this Lease.



 



     


    68


    




		15.9	Exhibiting Premises – The Landlord and its agents, upon reasonable prior written
notice to the Tenant, may, in the company of a representative of the Tenant, exhibit the Premises during Business Hours lo prospective
tenants for such space or to prospective purchasers or Secured Creditors.



 


ARTICLE 16


 


		16	STATUS CERTIFICATES AND NON-DISTurBANCE



 


		16.1	Status Certificates – The Tenant shall at any time and from time to time execute
and deliver to the Landlord or as the Landlord may direct within ten (10) days after it is requested a statement in writing in
the form supplied by the Landlord, certifying that this Lease has been validly executed and delivered by the Tenant pursuant to
due corporate action properly taken by it and is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if modified, stating the modification

any prospective fundraiser or purchasers or by the Secured Creditor.



 


		16.2	Subordination and Non-Disturbance – This Lease and the rights of the Tenant
hereunder shall be subject and subordinate to all existing or future Secured Creditors and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations,
replacements and extensions thereof. Whenever requested by the Landlord a Secured Creditor, the Tenant shall, within five (5) days
after such request, enter into an agreement with the Secured Creditor whereby the Tenant postpones or subordinates this Lease to
the interest of any stipulated Secured Creditor and agrees that it shall become bound toward such Secured Creditor, or any purchaser
from such Secured Creditor in the event of the exercise of any and all rights of the Secured Creditor for the then unexpired residue
of the Term upon all the terms and conditions of this Lease as if such Secured Creditor were the Landlord under this Lease, If
requested by the Tenant, the Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to cause any Secured Creditor to grant a non-disturbance
agreement, in a form approved by such Secured Creditor, in favour of the Tenant, whereby such Secured Creditor will recognize the
Tenant’s rights under this Lease and not disturb the Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises provided the Tenant is not
in default under this Lease.



 


Prior to the Commencement Date of the Term, the Landlord
shall cause the Co-owners and all of its then existing hypothecary creditors and subsequently cause all its hypothecary creditors
under any security registered prior to non-disturbance agreements in favour of the Tenant whereby such Co-owners and creditors
will recognize the Tenant’s rights under the Lease and agree not to disturb the Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises
so long as the Tenant is not in default under the Lease.

		19.3	Moving Allowance – The Landlord shall, not later than thirty (30) days following
the date upon which the Tenant has taken occupancy thereof, for the purpose of conducting its normal day to day business, pay the
Tenant a moving allowance as follows:



 


		19.3.1	with respect to Space “A”, TEN DOLLARS ($10.00) per square foot of the rentable area
thereof;



 


		19.3.2	with respect to Space “B”, TWENTY-FOUR DOLLARS AND SEVENTY-EIGHT CENTS ($24.78) per
square foot of the rentable area thereof;



 


		19.3.3	with respect to Space “C”, TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS AND NINETY-NINE CENTS ($25.99) per square

		19.4	Right of First Refusal - Provided the Tenant
occupies the entire 36th floor, is not then in default pursuant to the Lease and has not, either in whole or in part, sublet Spaces
“A” to “D” inclusively or assigned the Lease to a third party which is not an Affiliate, the Tenant shall
have, throughout the Term and any renewal thereof, a right of first refusal to lease any space located on the 39th floor which
is or becomes vacant and available for leasing. In accordance with the foregoing, the Landlord shall, upon receipt from a third
party of any bona fide offer to lease which the Landlord is willing to accept (or prior to the Landlord making a binding
offer to lease to a third party), offer to lease the space located on the 39th floor and contemplated in such third party offer
to the Tenant on the same terms and conditions as contained in such third party offer. Within five (5) days of the Tenant’s
receipt of the Landlord’s written offer of such terms to the Tenant, the Tenant may notify the Landlord in writing of its
acceptance of all of the said terms and conditions and shall within ten (10) business days sign an amendment to the Lease for all
and not part of the premises contemplated in such offer. Should the Tenant not notify the Landlord of its acceptance of the Landlord’s
offer within the aforesaid delay, the Landlord shall then have the right to enter into an agreement of lease with such third party
and the Tenant’s right of first refusal on the 39th floor shall then after be subordinated to any rights which may have been
granted to such party. It is expressly understood that, in no event, shall the Landlord be obligated to divulge the identity of
any third party having made an offer to lease.



 






     


    77


    

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Landlord agrees
to use all of its reasonable efforts to inform the Tenant verbally of any impending third party offers to lease space on the 39th
floor (if applicable pursuant to the foregoing), it being expressly understood that such verbal notification shall not be deemed
a waiver of the Landlord’s right to lease space in accordance with this clause.


 


It is expressly understood that this right of first refusal
shall not be assignable or transferable by the Tenant nor shall it pass to or devolve upon any subtenant or assignee of the Premises
or the Lease, unless such subtenant or assignee is an Affiliate of the Tenant.


 


		19.5	Parking - The Landlord agrees to make available
to the Tenant during the Term of this Lease twenty (20) parking spaces, including eight (8) reserved parking spaces, at the prevailing
rates being charged for parking spaces in the parking facilities of the Building from time to time.



 


Furthermore, the Landlord agrees to make available one
(1) additional space per one thousand eight hundred (1,800) square feet of rentable area of Space “D”, said spaces
being at the prevailing rates being charged for parking spaces in the parking facility in the Building.


 


		19.6	Option to Renew - Provided the Tenant is
not then in default under the terms of the Lease and provided the Tenant and/or any of its Affiliates is in occupancy of at least
fifty percent (50%) of the rentable area of Spaces “A” to “D” inclusively, the Tenant shall have the option
to renew the Lease for the whole of Spaces “A” to “D” inclusively, but not only a portion thereof, for
an additional term of five (5) years commencing on November 1, 2003 and expiring on October 31, 2008 inclusively (the “Renewal
Period”) upon giving the Landlord a written notice at least twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Term, failing
which this option to renew shall lapse and become null and void ipso facto.



 


All the terms and conditions of this Lease applicable
to Spaces “A” to “D” inclusively shall apply to the Renewal Period, save and except for Sections 4.6, 18.1,
19.1, 19.2, 19.3 and 19.4 and this Option to Renew, all of which shall not apply to the Renewal Period. The net rentable rate for
the Renewal Period shall be the average of the then prevailing market rates in the Building and at 1250 René-Lévesque
Boulevard West, for similar premises granted for new leases of a similar term and commencing during the last twelve (12) months
of the Term, less ten percent (10%). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the net rental rate payable with respect
to the Renewal Period be less than the net rental rate applicable during the last year of the Term to Spaces “A” to
“D” inclusively. If, on February 1, 2003, the parties have not reached an agreement on the net rental rate(s) applicable
to the Renewal Period, this option to renew shall then lapse and become null and void ipso facto.


 



     


    78


    




		19.7	Security for Payment of Inducements - In
the event the Landlord fails to meet its obligations pursuant to Section 4.6 of this Lease and/or Section 19.3 or fails to pay
to the Tenant the amount of fifty-five dollars ($55.00) per square foot referred to in Subsection 19.1.1 and/or if the Landlord
is unable to deliver Spaces “A” to “D” inclusively in accordance with Subsection 19.1.1 of this Lease by
reason of the Landlord’s financial inability, then as a guarantee for payment and/or performance of said obligations, the
Tenant shall have the right to deduct the amount of any unpaid inducements and/or reasonable and direct amounts paid by the Tenant
on behalf of the Landlord in the construction of Spaces “A” to “D” inclusively (the amount of such unpaid
inducements and direct amounts being hereinafter collectively called the “Unpaid Amounts”), from the Ne Rent payable
pursuant to the Lease until such time a said Unpaid Amounts have been paid for in full. In accordance with the foregoing, if the
Landlord is financially incapable of substantially completing the initial construction of Spaces “A” to “D”
inclusively, the Tenant may take over the Landlord’s responsibilities for said construction. In such an event, the Landlord
shall assign all of its obligations under the construction contract to the Tenant and the Tenant shall respect all of the terms
and conditions contained in such contract, and shall furthermore indemnify the Landlord from any claims or damages relative to
performance under the construction contract arising after the date of such assignment. It is further agreed that the balance of
the Unpaid Amounts shall bear interest daily from the due date at the rate per annum which is three (3) percent above the “Prime
Rate” as defined in the Lease, throughout the set-off period. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed as an ongoing right
of the Tenant to set-off against any sum due under the Lease other than the Unpaid Amounts.

(collectively referred to as “Act of God”), then the performance by the Tenant of such obligation shall be extended

were assumed by BCE Inc.), Prodevco Immobilière Inc. and Teleglobe Canada Inc., as lessors and the Landlord, as lessee,
as the same may be amended from time to time. The Landlord covenants that the lessors under the Head Lease are the Co-owners as

bound towards the Co-owners for the then unexpired residue of the Term.



 


		20.17	Reasonableness - Notwithstanding the terms
and conditions of the Lease, and each person acting for the Landlord in making a determination, designation, calculation, estimate,
conversion or allocation hereunder or under the Lease will act reasonably and in good faith and each accountant, architect (including
the Architect), engineer or surveyor or other professional person employed or retained by the Landlord will act in accordance with

or the consent of any person acting for the Landlord is required, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.



 


		20.18	Quiet Enjoyment - Provided the Tenant is
not in default hereunder beyond any period provided herein for curing such default, the Tenant shall peacefully hold and enjoy
the Premises throughout the Term without hindrance or interruption by the Landlord. The Landlord hereby recognized the Tenant’s
right to the peaceful enjoyment of the Premises throughout the Term and any renewal thereof, and, subject to the following, shall
use all of its reasonable efforts to light the exterior of the Building in a manner which does disturb the Tenant. In accordance
with the foregoing, the Landlord agrees to modify the light fixture located on the exterior of the Building in such a way that
the visual appearance and/or any glare emanating from same do not interfere with the Tenant’s peaceful enjoyment of the Premises.
In the event, the Landlord is unable to modify the large fixtures located outside the 12th and 36th floor in a manner which is
satisfactory to the Tenant, acting reasonably, then the Landlord agrees that, as a last resort, the Landlord shall remove said
large light fixtures. It is expressly understood that, subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 20.18 and notwithstanding
any removal of any exterior light fixture, the Landlord shall, at all times, retain its right to act in its sole discretion in
lighting the exterior of the Building so long as the Tenant may peacefully hold and enjoy the Premises. The parties hereto agree
to cooperate with one another to the fullest extend in making modifications which are to the mutual satisfaction of both parties,
and the Landlord shall use all of its reasonable efforts to complete said modifications on or before the Commencement Date.



 



     


    84


    




		20.19	Relationship of Parties - Notwithstanding
any provisions of this Lease including, without limitation, the provisions pertaining to alterations and/or improvements to the
Premises, nothing in this Lease shall be construed as constituting the Tenant the mandatary or contractor of the Landlord or the
Co-owners in respect of the execution of the Tenant’s alterations and/or improvements or as creating any other relationship
between the Landlord and the Tenant other than that of landlord and tenant.



 


		20.20	Landlord’s release and waiver - The
Landlord shall release and waive all claims for damages against the tenant and those for whom the Tenant is in law responsible
to the extent of the amount recovered by the Landlord from its insurers or which should have been available to the Landlord if
(i) the Landlord had prudently and diligently pursued any required claim under its insurance; and (ii) the Landlord had complied
with its insurance obligations under the Lease and under hypothec, trust deed or superior lease affecting the Building. The Landlord
shall also obtain a waiver of subrogation rights against the Tenant, and those for whom the Tenant is in law responsible, from
its insurers under policies of insurance relating to the Building or under any hypothec, trust deed or superior lease affecting
the Building.



 


		20.21	Moveable Hypothec - As continuing and collateral
security for the due and punctual performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, the Tenant hypothecates in favour
of Landlord, for a sum equal to the Net Rent and the Additional Rent payable by the Tenant during a two-year period under the Term
of the Lease and interest thereon at the Prime Rate plus two percent (2%), calculated semi-annually and not in advance, a universality
consisting of all moveable improvements, equipment, machinery, furniture, and fixtures of every kind now or hereafter located in,
on or upon the Premises, including all indemnities or proceeds paid or payable to Tenant under insurance policies pertaining to
or covering such movables. The hypothec herein created does not constitute a floating hypothec under Article 2715 of the Civil
Code of Québec. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the security hereby constituted shall become enforceable and
Landlord shall be entitled to immediately exercise any and all rights arising from such hypothec without any notice or delay except
as may be required by law. The hypothec referred to in this Section 20.21 shall constitute a first ranking charge on all the assets
charged thereunder. However, should Tenant obtain a bona fide financing for the operation of its business in the Premises
from a person acting at arm’s length with Tenant and the persons who control, directly or indirectly, Tenant (the “Tenant’s
Lender”), Landlord shall execute, at Tenant’s cost, a subordination agreement in favour of Tenant’s Lender in
a form and substance satisfactory to Landlord and its legal counsel, acting reasonably, provided that Tenant is not then in default
and provided further that the security granted to Tenant’s Lender shall not affect any asset which is or may become, under
the terms of this Lease, the property of Landlord.



 






     


    85


    

The Tenant covenants with Landlord to furnish the Premises
with and maintain therein a sufficient quantity of furniture, fixtures and other moveable effects to secure the payment of twelve
(12) months’ rent. The said furniture, fixtures and other effects shall at all times be and remain the absolute and exclusive
property of Tenant free and clear of any privileges, liens, charges or encumbrances save for those in favor of Landlord.


 


The Tenant undertakes to execute, in favour of the Landlord
and upon its request, a first ranking moveable hypothec of a value sufficient to secure the payment of twelve (12) months Rent,
and to execute and sign promptly any document submitted by the Landlord to give effect to same.

shall bear its fees for all professionals hired with respect to the preparation and negotiation of this Lease.



 


		20.23	Waiver of presumptions - The Tenant waives
its rights to obtain a reduction of rent pursuant to Articles 1861 and 1863 of the Civil Code of Québec, as amended.



 


		20.24	Brokerage Commission- The Tenant and the
Landlord represent that no broker or agent has been engaged by either party with respect to this Lease transaction, nor negotiated
or was instrumental in negotiation or consummating this Lease, and that no amounts including, without limitation, commissions are
payable as a result of this transaction.



 


		20.25	G.S.T./Q.S.T. - It is agreed that any sums
payable by the Tenant to the Landlord or by the Landlord to the Tenant under this Lease shall be net of G.S.T./Q.S.T.



 


		20.26	Act of a Third Party - Notwithstanding any
law, usage or custom to the contrary, the Landlord shall not be liable to the Tenant for damages resulting from the act of a third
person and the Tenant does hereby expressly waive any right or recourse it may have against the Landlord as a result of such act
and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Tenant renounces and waives its right to obtain a reduction of Rent,
cancellation of the Lease or damages.



 


		20.27	Language Clause - The parties have requested
that this Agreement of Lease and its Schedules be prepared and drawn-up in the English language. Les parties ont demandé
que la présente convention de bail ainsi que ses annexes soient rédigées en anglais.
