Any such measurement by an Expert shall be final and binding on the Landlord and the Tenant subject to the Landlord’s right from time to time to cause the Rentable Area of the Premises and/or Project or any part thereof to be remeasured by an Expert as set out above. Neither the Landlord nor the Tenant may claim any adjustment to the annual Basic Rent or to the calculation of Additional Rent based on the Rentable Area of the Premises except in accordance with a measurement by an Expert made pursuant to this Section and, for greater certainty, neither the Landlord nor the Tenant may claim any adjustment to the annual Basic Rent or to the calculation of Additional Rent based on such measurement for the period prior to the effective date of such adjustment as set out above. 5.4

      All payments required to be made by the Tenant pursuant to this Lease, except for Rental Taxes, shall be deemed to be Rent and shall be payable and recoverable as Rent, and the Landlord shall have all rights against the Tenant for default in any such payment as in the case of arrears of Rent. 8

(c)
      The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord all Rental Taxes applicable from time to time, calculated and payable in accordance with Applicable Laws and the Tenant shall pay such amount at the earlier of: (i) the time provided for by Applicable Laws; and (ii) the time such Rent is required to be paid under this Lease. The amount payable by the Tenant on account of Rental Taxes shall be deemed not to be Rent for the purpose of such calculation but in the event of a failure by the Tenant to pay any amount, the Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies as it has in the event of a failure by the Tenant to pay Rent.(d)
      [redacted] The Tenant authorizes the Landlord to withdraw monthly Rent payments from the Tenant’s account by way of direct withdrawals, as may be arranged from time to time between financial institutions administering the Tenant’s and the Landlord’s accounts. The Tenant further agrees to execute and provide whatever further documentation, account information, cancelled cheques or otherwise, which are reasonably requested by the Landlord in order to assist the Landlord in the administration of a pre-authorized payment procedure for monies owing or accruing due as Rent under this Lease.(e)
      [redacted](f)
      If the [redacted] last day of the Term is other than the last day of a full period, then unless otherwise provided in this Lease, the amount of such item of Rent payable in respect of the broken period shall be prorated on the basis of a 365 day year. 5.5
      Payment of Additional Rent (a)
      Prior to the Commencement Date and at or prior to the beginning of each Fiscal Year thereafter, the Landlord shall compute and deliver to the Tenant a bona fide estimate in respect of such Fiscal Year of the Tenant's share of Property Taxes, the Tenant’s share of Operating Costs (being its Proportionate Share subject to Section 6.7) and such other items of Additional Rent as the Landlord may estimate in advance and the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord in monthly instalments one-twelfth of such estimate simultaneously with the Tenant's payments of Basic Rent, provided that the monthly instalments on account of the Tenant's share of Property Taxes may be determined so that the Landlord collects all such amounts payable by the Tenant by the final due date in the relevant calendar year. The Landlord may from time to time re-estimate any items of Additional Rent and may fix monthly instalments for the then remaining balance of the Fiscal Year so that such items will be entirely paid during such Fiscal Year.(b)
      Within a reasonable period of time after all information necessary to calculate actual Additional Rent becomes available after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Landlord will provide to the Tenant a written statement (in this Section 5.5 referred to as the "Statement") setting out in reasonable detail the amount of Operating Costs, the Property Taxes and such other items of Additional Rent as the Landlord had estimated in advance for such Fiscal Year. If the Tenant’s share of Property Taxes, the Tenant’s share of Operating Costs (being its Proportionate Share subject to Section 6.7) and other items of Additional Rent actually paid by the Tenant to the Landlord during such Fiscal Year differs from the amount of the Tenant’s share of Property Taxes, the Tenant’s share of Operating Costs and other items of Additional Rent payable for such Fiscal Year, the Tenant shall pay such difference or the Landlord shall credit the Tenant's account (as the case may be), without interest within 30 days after the date of delivery of the Statement. The respective obligations of the Landlord and the Tenant in this Section 5.5(b) shall survive the end of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease.(c)
      The Tenant shall not claim a re-adjustment in respect of Operating Costs or Property Taxes or other  items of Additional Rent estimated by the Landlord or the share payable by the Tenant on account thereof for any Fiscal Year except by notice given to the Landlord within six months after delivery of the Statement, stating the particulars of the error in computation.(d)
      If the Tenant disputes the accuracy of any Statement within the period permitted under Section 5.5(c) above and the Landlord and the Tenant fail to settle the matter within a reasonable period, the matter shall be referred by the Landlord to an Expert for prompt determination. The Tenant shall pay in accordance with the Statement until such decision is rendered. The Expert’s signed determination shall be final and binding on both the Landlord and the Tenant. Any adjustment required to any previous payment made by the Tenant or the Landlord by reason of any such determination shall be made within 14 days thereof, and the party required to pay such adjustment shall bear all reasonablecosts of the Expert, except that if the amount to be paid is 20% or less of the amount in dispute, the Tenant shall pay all such costs. 9

Upon demand by the Landlord following any such appropriation, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord an amount sufficient to restore the total original amount of the Security Deposit. If the Tenant complies with all of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions under this Lease, the Security Deposit shall be returned to the Tenant without interest within 90 days after the expiry or earlier termination of the Term, or, at the Landlord's option, shall be applied by the Landlord on account of the last month's Rent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Tenant fails to execute and deliver this Lease within five (5) days of receipt from the Landlord or fails to take possession of the Premises by the Commencement Date, the Landlord may, at its sole option, terminate this Lease, whereupon the Security Deposit shall be retained by the Landlord as liquidated damages on account of the Tenant’s default and not as a penalty. 5.8

The Landlord shall, within 30 days after having received such notice, the Transfer Application Fee and all requested information, notify the Tenant either that: (a)
      it consents or does not consent to the Transfer in accordance with the provisions of this Lease; or(b)
      it elects to terminate this Lease as to the part of the Premises affected by the proposed Transfer, or as to the whole Lease and Premises if the proposed Transfer affects all of the Premises. If the Landlord elects to terminate this Lease it shall stipulate in its notice the termination date of this Lease, which date shall be the date of possession contemplated under the proposed Transfer (provided that if such date is less than 30 days or more than 90 days following the giving of notice of such election, the Landlord may elect to have the termination date 30 days or 90 days, respectively, following the giving of notice). If the Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, the Tenant may notify the Landlord in writing within ten days following receipt of such notice of the Tenant's intention to refrain from such Transfer and, if the Tenant provides such written notice within such time period, then the Landlord's election to terminate this Lease shall become void. If the Tenant fails to deliver such notice within such time period, then this Lease shall, 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 is required to deliver possession of a part only of the Premises, the Tenant shall pay all costs incurred in connection with rendering that part functionally separate and suitable for separate use and occupancy, including partitioning and providing entrances and services. 12.3
      Conditions of Transfer The following terms and conditions apply in respect of a Transfer: (a)
      if the Transfer is an assignment of this Lease in whole or in part, the Tenant and the Transferee shall execute, prior to the Transfer being made, an agreement with the Landlord in the Landlord’s form including the Transferee’s covenant to be bound by all of the terms of this Lease;(b)
      notwithstanding any Transfer, the Tenant shall remain liable under this Lease and shall not be released from performing any of the terms of this Lease. The Tenant’s liability shall continue notwithstanding any amendment of this Lease throughout the Term and any exercise of any renewal or extension of the Term provided for herein, regardless of whether or when an amendment of this Lease is made (however the original Tenant’s liability will not be increased by any amendment that it is not a party to) and notwithstanding that the Landlord may collect rent from the Transferee. Without limiting the foregoing, the Tenant shall be responsible for all acts or omissions of any subtenant, licensee or occupant;(c)
      if the basic and additional rent (net of reasonable out of pocket costs for commissions, for cash allowances and for Alterations required by and made for the Transferee by the Tenant, amortized on a straight line basis over the term of the Transfer) to be paid by the Transferee under such Transfer exceeds the Basic Rent and Additional Rent payable by the Tenant hereunder, the amount of such excess shall be paid by the Tenant to the Landlord. If the Tenant receives from any Transferee, either directly or indirectly, any consideration other than basic rent or additional rent 23


---

for such Transfer, either in the form of cash, goods or services, the Tenant shall immediately pay to the Landlord an amount equivalent to such consideration;(d)
      if the Transfer is a sublease, the Transferee will execute a covenant in the Landlord’s form and will agree to waive any statutory or other right to apply to a court or to otherwise elect to: (i) retain the unexpired term of the Lease or the unexpired term of the sublease; (ii) obtain any right to enter into any lease or other agreement directly with the Landlord; or (iii) otherwise remain in possession of any portion of the Premises, in any case where the Lease is terminated, surrendered or otherwise cancelled, including, without limitation, any disclaimer, repudiation, surrender or other termination (each of these transactions being referred to as an "Early Termination") by any trustee in bankruptcy of the Tenant or a Transferee, by any court appointed officer, or by the Tenant or a Transferee in connection with any insolvency proceedings;(e)
      if there is an Early Termination, the Tenant and any Transferee (except the bankrupt or insolvent Tenant or Transferee) to whom the Landlord gives notice within 60 days after the Early Termination, shall be considered to have entered into a lease with the Landlord on the same terms and conditions as are contained in this Lease except that the term of the lease shall commence on the date of the Early Termination and shall expire on the date this Lease would have expired but for the Early Termination; and(f)
      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 the Transferee. 12.4
      Corporate Records Upon the Landlord's request, the Tenant shall: (a) deliver a statutory declaration by one of its senior officers setting forth the details of its corporate and capital structure; (b) make available to the Landlord or its representatives all of its corporate or partnership records, as the case may be, for inspection at all times, in order to ascertain whether any Change of Control has occurred; and (c) cause the Indemnifier(s), if any, to provide any of the foregoing in respect of such Indemnifier(s). 12.5
      Permitted Transfers Notwithstanding Section 12.1 and provided that the Required Conditions are satisfied and there is not then an Event of Default, the Tenant shall have the right on prior written notice to the Landlord, but without being required to obtain the Landlord’s consent, to effect a Transfer in compliance with Section 12.3 in favour of a Permitted Transferee and the Landlord’s right to terminate shall not apply to such a Transfer. 12.6
      No Advertising The Tenant shall not advertise that the whole or any part of the Premises are 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 the rental rate of the Premises. 12.7
      Sales or Dispositions by Landlord The Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to sell, transfer, lease, license, charge or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its interest in the Project or any interest of the Landlord in this Lease. In the event of any sale, transfer, lease or other disposition the Landlord shall thereupon, and without further agreement, be released of all liability under this Lease arising from and after such disposition. If required by the Landlord in connection with any sale, transfer, charge or other disposition the Tenant shall, within five Business Days of request, provide to the Landlord, prospective purchasers and Mortgagees and their respective agents and consultants, access to the current financial statements of the Tenant and any Indemnifier. If the Tenant is listed on a recognized stock exchange in Canada or the United States, the Tenant agrees to provide instead copies of the Tenant's annual reports, quarterly reports and all other publicly distributed reporting materials. ARTICLE 13 - LANDLORD FINANCING AND STATUS CERTIFICATES 13.1
      Subordination and Postponement (a)
      This Lease and the rights of the Tenant in this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to any and all Mortgages and the Tenant, on request by and without cost to the Landlord, shall, within five Business Days after such request, execute and deliver any and all instruments required by the Landlord to evidence such subordination. Upon request by the Tenant at the time of any request for confirmation of subordination, the Landlord shall make reasonable efforts to obtain from any Mortgagee an acknowledgement and assurance in writing addressed to the Tenant, whereby such Mortgagee acknowledges that, in the event of any such Mortgagee realizing upon the security, it will not disturb the Tenant and will permit the Tenant to remain in possession under this Lease in accordance with its terms, so long as the Tenant is not in default. 24


---

(b)
      The Landlord, as to any Mortgage, and a Mortgagee, as to any Mortgage held by it, may, by notice to the Tenant, elect that this Lease and the rights of the Tenant hereunder shall be prior to such Mortgage(s) and the Tenant, on request by and without cost to the Landlord, shall, within five Business Days after such request, execute and deliver any and all instruments required by the Landlord or the Mortgagee, as the case may be, to confirm priority to this Lease over the Mortgage(s). 13.2
        Attornment
 At any time after any of the following has occurred: (a)
      if a Mortgagee delivers a notice of attornment;(b)
      if a Mortgagee shall take possession of the Building or the Premises; or(c)
      if the interest of the Landlord is transferred to any Person (in this Article referred to as a "Purchaser") by reason of foreclosure or other proceedings for enforcement of any Mortgage, or by delivery of a conveyance, the Tenant shall, at the option of the Mortgagee or the Purchaser, as the case may be, exercisable by notice in writing to the Tenant, be deemed to have attorned to the Mortgagee or the Purchaser, as the case may be, upon receipt of such notice. The Landlord, the Mortgagee or the Purchaser, as the case may be, may require the Tenant to enter into all instruments required by the Landlord, the Mortgagee or the Purchaser, as the case may be, to confirm such attornment. Upon such attornment the obligations of the Tenant under this Lease shall continue in full force and effect upon all the same terms, conditions and covenants in this Lease.  13.3
      Status Certificates The Tenant shall at any time and from time to time execute and deliver to the Landlord, or as the Landlord, a Mortgagee or a Purchaser may direct, within five Business Days after it is requested, a certificate of the Tenant, in the form supplied, addressed to the Landlord, the Mortgagee or the Purchaser, as the case may be, and/or any prospective purchaser, lessor or Mortgagee, certifying such particulars, information and other matters in respect of the Tenant (including its financial standing), the Premises and this Lease that the Landlord, the Mortgagee or the Purchaser, as the case may be, may request. The Tenant will be liable for damages to the Landlord for failure to execute and deliver the requested certificate. Failure to execute the requested certificate within the stipulated five Business Day period is a default under this Lease and the Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease without incurring any liability for so doing. 13.4
      Reliance Notwithstanding that a Mortgagee or a Purchaser is not a party to this Lease, it shall be entitled to rely upon and enforce the provisions of this Lease which are stated to be for its benefit and, without limitation, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to act as agent for the Landlord to the extent necessary to enforce any such provisions. ARTICLE 14 - DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION, DEMOLITION, EXPROPRIATION 14.1
      Damage to Premises If all or any material part of the Premises is rendered untenantable or completely inaccessible by damage from fire or other casualty to the Building or Project, then: (a)
      if in the opinion of the Expert, the damage can be substantially repaired under Applicable Laws within 180 days from the date of such casualty (employing normal construction methods without overtime or other premium), the Landlord shall forthwith repair such damage other than damage to Leasehold Improvements and any other property that is not the responsibility of or is not owned by Landlord; and(b)
      if in the opinion of the Expert, the damage cannot be substantially repaired under Applicable Laws within 180 days from the date of such casualty (employing normal construction methods without overtime or other premium), then: (i)
      the Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease as of the date of such casualty by notice delivered to the Tenant not more than 20 days after receipt of the Expert's opinion; and(ii)
      if such damage occurs during the last two Lease Years of the Term, the Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as of the date of such casualty by notice delivered to Landlord not more than 20 days after receipt of the Expert's opinion, failing which the Landlord shall forthwith repair such damage other than damage to Leasehold Improvements or property that is not the responsibility of or is not owned by Landlord. 25


---

14.2
      Abatement If the Landlord is required to repair damage to the Premises under Section 14.1 the Basic Rent payable by the Tenant shall be proportionately reduced to the extent that the Premises are rendered untenantable or inaccessible, from the date of the casualty until 30 days after completion by the Landlord of the repairs to the Premises or until the Tenant again uses the Premises (or the part thereof rendered untenantable), whichever first occurs. The Tenant shall effect its own repairs as soon as possible after completion of the Landlord's repairs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no abatement or reduction of Rent where the Landlord's repairs to the Premises take less than ten days to complete after the damage occurs.  14.3
      Termination Rights Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Lease, if: (a) the Building is partially destroyed or damaged so as to affect 25% or more of the Rentable Area of the Building; or (b) in the opinion of the Expert the Building is unsafe or access or services are affected and, in either case, cannot be substantially repaired under Applicable Laws within 180 days from the date of such casualty (employing normal construction methods without overtime or other premium); or (c) the proceeds of insurance are substantially insufficient to pay for the costs of repair or rebuilding or are not payable to or received by the Landlord; or (d) any Mortgagee(s) or other Person entitled to the insurance proceeds shall not consent to the repair and rebuilding, then the Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving to the Tenant notice of such termination within 60 days of the damage or destruction, in which event the Term shall cease and be at an end as of the date of such damage or destruction and the Rent and all other payments for which the Tenant is liable under the terms of this Lease shall be apportioned and paid in full to the date of termination (subject to any abatement under Section 14.2). 14.4
      Landlord's Rights on Rebuilding In the event of damage to the Building and if this Lease is not terminated in accordance with Sections 14.1 or 14.3, the Landlord shall forthwith repair any damage to the Building, but only to the extent of the Landlord's obligations under the terms of the various leases for premises in the Building (including this Lease) and exclusive of any tenant's responsibilities with respect to such repair. In repairing or rebuilding the Building or the Premises the Landlord may use drawings, designs, plans and specifications other than those used in the original construction and may alter or relocate the Building, the Common Areas and Facilities or any part thereof, and may alter or relocate the Premises, provided that the Building as repaired or rebuilt is of a similar standard and the Premises as altered or relocated shall be of approximately the same size as the original Premises. 14.5
      Landlord's Demolition Rights Despite any other provisions of this Lease, if the Landlord intends to demolish or renovate substantially the Building or a substantial portion of the Building, the Landlord may terminate this Lease on not less than 180 days’ notice to the Tenant. The Tenant shall on the date set out in the notice from the Landlord vacate the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease. Also on such date, the Term shall cease and be at an end and the Rent and all other payments for which the Tenant is liable under the terms of this Lease shall be apportioned and paid in full to the date of termination. 14.6
        Expropriation
 The Landlord and the Tenant shall co-operate in respect of any expropriation of all or any part of the Premises or the Lands and Building so that each party may receive the maximum award to which it is entitled in law. If the whole or any part of the Premises or of the Lands and Building are expropriated, as between the parties hereto, their respective rights and obligations under this Lease shall continue until the day on which the expropriating authority takes possession thereof. If, in the case of partial expropriation of the Premises this Lease is not frustrated by operation of governing law and such expropriation does not render the remaining part of the Premises untenantable for the purposes of this Lease, the Tenant and the Landlord shall restore the part not so taken in accordance with their respective repair obligations under the provisions of Sections 14.1(a) and 14.2 of this Lease. In this Section 14.6 the word "expropriation" shall include a sale by the Landlord to any authority with powers of expropriation, in lieu of or under threat of expropriation. ARTICLE 15 - DEFAULT AND REMEDIES 15.1
      Events of Default Any of the following constitutes an Event of Default under this Lease: (a)
      any Rent (which term for the purpose of this Article 15 shall include Rental Taxes) is in arrears and is not paid within five days after notice from the Landlord;(b)
      the Tenant has breached any of its obligations in this Lease and, if such breach is capable of being remedied and is not otherwise listed in this Section 15.1, after notice from the Landlord: (i)
      the Tenant fails to remedy such breach within ten days (or such shorter period as may be provided in this Lease); or 26


---

(ii)
      if such breach cannot reasonably be remedied within ten days or such shorter period, the Tenant fails to commence to remedy such breach within such ten days or shorter period or thereafter fails to proceed diligently to remedy such breach; (c)
      the Lease or any goods, chattels or equipment of the Tenant is seized, taken or exigible in execution or in attachment or if a writ of execution or enforcement is issued against the Tenant and such writ is not stayed or vacated within ten days after the date of such issue;(d
      the Tenant or any Indemnifier becomes insolvent or commits an act of bankruptcy or takes the benefit of any statute for bankrupt or insolvent debtors or makes any proposal, assignment, compromise or arrangement with its creditors, or if a receiver is appointed for all or part of the business, property, affairs or revenues of the Tenant;(e)
      the Tenant makes a bulk sale of its goods (other than in conjunction with a Transfer approved by the Landlord) or moves or commences, attempts or threatens to move its goods, chattels and equipment out of the Premises (other than in the normal course of its business);(f)
      the Tenant fails to take possession of and occupy the Premises on the Commencement Date, or if thereafter the Tenant abandons or attempts to abandon the Premises or ceases to conduct business from the Premises, or the Premises become vacant or substantially unoccupied for a period of ten consecutive days; or(g)
      the Tenant purports to effect a Transfer other than in compliance with the provisions of this Lease. 15.2
      Remedies If and whenever an Event of Default occurs, the Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies, exercisable immediately and without further notice and at any time while the Event of Default continues: (a)
      to terminate this Lease and re-enter the Premises. The Landlord may remove all Persons and property from the Premises and store such property at the expense and risk of the Tenant or sell or dispose of such property in such manner as the Landlord sees fit without notice to the Tenant. Notwithstanding any termination of this Lease, the Landlord shall be entitled to receive Rent and all Rental Taxes up to the time of termination plus accelerated Rent as provided in this Lease and damages including, without limitation: (i) damages for the loss of Rent suffered by reason of this Lease having been prematurely terminated; (ii) costs of reclaiming, repairing and re-leasing the Premises; and (iii) legal fees and disbursements on a solicitor and client basis;(b)
      to enter the Premises as agent of the Tenant and to relet the Premises for whatever length of time and on such terms as the Landlord in its discretion may determine including, without limitation the right to: (i) take possession of any property of the Tenant on the Premises; (ii) store such property at the expense and risk of the Tenant; (iii) sell or otherwise dispose of such property in such manner as the Landlord sees fit; and (iv) make alterations to the Premises to facilitate the reletting. The Landlord shall receive the rent and proceeds of sale as agent of the Tenant and shall apply the proceeds of any such sale or reletting first, to the payment of any expenses incurred by the Landlord with respect to any such reletting or sale, second, to the payment of any indebtedness of the Tenant to the Landlord other than Rent and third, to the payment of Rent in arrears, with the residue to be held by the Landlord and applied to payment of future Rent as it becomes due and payable. The Tenant shall remain liable for any deficiency to the Landlord;(c)
      to remedy or attempt to remedy the Event of Default for the account of the Tenant and to enter upon the Premises for such purposes. The Landlord shall not be liable to the Tenant for any loss, injury or damages caused by acts of the Landlord in remedying or attempting to remedy the Event of Default. The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, on demand, all expenses incurred by the Landlord in remedying the Event of Default, together with an administration fee of 15% and interest  at the Default Rate from the date such expense was incurred by Landlord; (d)
      to recover from the Tenant all damages, costs and expenses incurred by the Landlord as a result of the Event of Default including any deficiency between those amounts which would have been payable by the Tenant for the portion of the Term following such termination and the net amounts actually received by the Landlord during such period of time with respect to the Premises; and(e)
      to recover from the Tenant the full amount of the current month's Rent together with the next three months' instalments of Rent, which shall immediately become due and payable as accelerated rent. 15.3
        Distress
 Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease or any provision of any present or future Applicable Laws, none of the goods, chattels or trade fixtures on the Premises at any time during the Term shall be exempt from levy by distress for Rent in arrears, and the Tenant waives any such exemption. If the Landlord makes any claim against the goods and chattels of the Tenant by way of distress this provision may be pleaded as an estoppel against the Tenant in any action brought to test the right of the Landlord to levy such distress. 27


---

15.4
        Interest and Costs
 The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord upon demand: (a) interest at the Default Rate on all Rent required to be paid hereunder from the due date for payment until fully paid and satisfied; and (b) the Landlord’s then current administration charge for each notice of default given by the Landlord to the Tenant under this Lease. The Tenant shall pay and indemnify the Landlord against damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, all legal fees on a solicitor and client basis) incurred in enforcing the terms of this Lease, or with respect to any matter or thing which is the obligation of the Tenant under this Lease, or in respect of which the Tenant has agreed to insure or to indemnify the Landlord. 15.5
      Remedies Cumulative No reference to or exercise of any specific right or remedy by the Landlord shall prejudice or preclude the Landlord from exercising or invoking any other remedy, whether allowed under this Lease or generally at law or in equity, and the express provisions of this Lease as to certain rights and remedies are not to be interpreted as excluding any other or additional rights and remedies available to the Landlord generally at law or in equity. ARTICLE 16 – MISCELLANEOUS 16.1
      Relationship of Parties Nothing contained in this Lease shall create any relationship between the parties other than that of landlord and tenant, and, without limitation, nothing in this Lease shall be construed to constitute the Landlord and the Tenant as partners, joint venturers or members of a joint or common enterprise. 16.2
      Consent Not to be Unreasonably Withheld Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease, the Landlord and the Tenant, and each Person acting for them, in granting a consent or approval or making a determination, designation, calculation, estimate, conversion or allocation under this Lease, will act reasonably and in good faith and each Expert or other professional Person employed or retained by the Landlord will act in accordance with the applicable principles and standards of such Person's profession; however, the foregoing shall not apply in respect of any actions taken by or on behalf of the Landlord under Article 15. The Tenant's sole remedy against the Landlord in respect of any breach or alleged breach of this Section shall be an action for specific performance and, without limitation, the Landlord shall not be liable for damages and the Tenant shall not be entitled to any other rights or remedies.  16.3
      Overholding The Tenant has no right to remain in possession of the Premises after the end of the Term. If the Tenant remains in possession of the Premises after the end of the Term with the consent of the Landlord but without entering into a new lease or other agreement then, notwithstanding any statutory provisions, legal presumption or reasonableness requirement to the contrary, there shall be no tacit renewal of this Lease or the Term and the Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the Premises as a tenant from month to month (with either party having the right to terminate such month to month tenancy at any time on 30 days' notice, whether or not the date of termination is at the end of a rental period) at a monthly Basic Rent payable in advance on the first day of each month equal to double the monthly amount of Basic Rent payable during the last month of the Term (or which would have been payable but for any discount or rent-free period applicable to such last month) and otherwise upon the same terms, covenants and conditions as in this Lease insofar as these are applicable to a monthly tenancy and, for greater certainty, including liability for all Additional Rent. 16.4
      Registration Neither the Tenant nor anyone on the Tenant's behalf or claiming under the Tenant (including any Transferee) shall register this Lease or any Transfer against the Lands. The Tenant may at its sole cost register a notice or caveat of this Lease provided that: (a) a copy of the Lease is not attached; (b) no financial terms are disclosed; (c) the Landlord gives its prior written approval to the notice or caveat; and (d) the Tenant pays the Landlord's costs on account of the matter. The Landlord may limit such registration to one or more parts of the Lands. Upon the expiration or other termination of the Term the Tenant shall immediately discharge or otherwise vacate any such notice or caveat at its sole cost. If any part of the Lands which in the opinion of the Landlord are surplus is transferred, the Tenant shall forthwith at the request of the Landlord discharge or otherwise vacate any such notice or caveat as it relates to such part. If any part of the Lands are made subject to any easement, right-of-way or similar right, the Tenant at its sole cost shall immediately at the request of the Landlord, which request the Landlord may make in its sole discretion, postpone its registered interest to such easement, right-of-way or similar right. 16.5
      Unavoidable Delay If any party is bona fide delayed, or hindered in or prevented from the performance of any term, covenant or act required by this Lease by reason of any cause beyond the control of the party affected including, without limitation, strikes, lockouts or other labour disputes, the enactment, amendment or repeal of any Applicable Laws, the failure of any existing tenant or occupant to vacate the Premises, shortages or unavailability of labour or materials, riots, insurrection, sabotage, rebellion, war, acts of terrorism, act of God, or any other similar reason ("Unavoidable Delay"), then performance of such term, covenant or act is excused for the period of the delay and the party so 28


---

delayed, hindered or prevented shall be entitled to perform such term, covenant or act within the appropriate time period after the expiration of the period of such delay. However, the provisions of this Section do not operate to excuse the Tenant from the prompt payment of Rent and any other payments required by this Lease or from vacating the Premises as and when required pursuant to any provision of this Lease and Unavoidable Delay shall not include any delay caused by the parties' default or act or omission, any delay avoidable by the exercise of reasonable care by such party or any delay caused by lack of funds of such party. The Landlord shall also be excused from the performance of any term, covenant or act required hereunder if the performance of such item would be in conflict with any directive, policy or request of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority in respect of any energy, conservation, safety or security matter. 16.6
      Decisions of Experts; Arbitration The decision of any Expert whenever provided for under this Lease and any certificate of an Expert shall be final and binding on the parties and there shall be no further right of dispute or appeal. Wherever under any provision of this Lease it is stated that a matter is to be determined by Arbitration, it shall be determined by a single arbitrator appointed by the parties. If the parties cannot agree on a single arbitrator, then, upon the application of either party, a Justice of the superior court of the province in which the Premises are situate shall appoint an arbitrator whose sole determination shall be final. The arbitrator shall be a disinterested person of recognized competence in the real estate business where the Premises are situate. The expense of such arbitration shall be borne equally by the Landlord and the Tenant. 16.7
        Notices
 Any notice, demand, statement or request ("Notice") required or permitted to be given under this Lease shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered, delivered by courier or mailed by registered prepaid post, in the case of Notice to the Landlord, to it at the address set out in Section 1.1(a)(ii) and in the case of Notice to the Tenant, to it at the Premises. Notice may not be given by facsimile transmission, electronic mail or any other electronic communication. Any such Notice given in accordance with the above requirements shall be deemed to have been given, if mailed, on the fifth day following the date of such mailing or, if delivered, on the day on which it was delivered so long as such delivery was prior to 5:00 p.m. on a Business Day (and, if after 5:00 p.m. or if any such day is not a Business Day, then it shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next Business Day). Either party may from time to time by Notice change the address to which notices to it are to be given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any interruption or threatened interruption in postal services, any Notice shall be personally delivered or delivered by courier. If a copy of any Notice to the Tenant is to be sent to a second address or to another Person other than the Tenant, the failure to give any such copy shall not vitiate the delivery of the Notice to the Tenant. 16.8
      Confidentiality The Tenant shall keep confidential all financial information in respect of this Lease, provided that it may disclose such information to its auditors, consultants and professional advisors so long as they have first agreed to respect such confidentiality. 16.9
      Power, Capacity and Authority The Landlord and the Tenant covenant, represent and warrant to each other that they have the power, capacity and authority to enter into this Lease and to perform its obligations hereunder and that there are no covenants, restrictions or commitments given by it which would prevent or inhibit it from entering into this Lease. 16.10
      Liability of Landlord Any liability of the Landlord under this Lease shall be limited to its interest in the Building from time to time. If the Landlord consists of more than one Person, the liability of each such Person shall be several and be limited to its percentage interest in the Building. 29
