6.
	
OCCUPANCY DELAY

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, should Sublandlord fail to cause the Possession Date to occur by December 15, 2020 through no fault of the Subtenant, then Subtenant shall be provided 

2

 

with one (1) day(s) of free Base Rent for every day the Possession Date shall not have occurred beyond December 15, 2020; it being agreed that such Base Rent credit shall be applied following the Commencement Date such that Subtenant shall receive the benefit of the same. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that the Possession Date shall not have occurred on or before February 1, 2021, then the Subtenant shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate this Sublease.

8.
	
CONDITION OF PREMISES

Subject to the following grammatical paragraph, the Subtenant acknowledges that it has thoroughly inspected the Premises and agrees that, as of the Possession Date, Subtenant accepts the Premises in its “as is with all faults” but broom-clean and vacant condition and that Sublandlord has no obligation whatsoever to perform any leasehold or other tenant improvements to prepare the Premises for the Subtenant’s occupancy, other than Sublandlord’s Work described in this Sublease. Subtenant acknowledges that, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, neither Sublandlord nor any agent of Sublandlord has made any representation as to the condition of the Subleased Premises or their suitability for the conduct of Subtenant's business, and Subtenant waives any implied warranty that the Premises are suitable for Subtenant’s intended purpose. SUBLANDLORD AND SUBTENANT ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT BY THEIR EXECUTION OF THIS SUBLEASE THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN SPECIFICALLY NEGOTIATED AND AGREED UPON.

The Sublandlord represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, to the best of its actual knowledge (without any duty to investigate), (i) the Base Building services, including HVAC, electrical, plumbing, sprinklers, life safety systems and telecommunication systems are in good working order and repair and (ii) no asbestos or other Hazardous Substances exist in the Premises. The Sublandlord represents and warrants that it has not received any notice from a governmental authority or from Head Landlord that the Premises or the Building are in violation of any applicable laws. The phrase “to the best of its actual knowledge” as used in this Sublease means the actual knowledge only, and not any implied, imputed or constructive knowledge, of the Executive Committee of Sublandlord (who would be advised of any issues at the Premises related to Building system and safety), without any independent investigation having been made.

Throughout the Sublease Term and any extensions thereof, the Subtenant shall be permitted to modify existing Leasehold Improvements and/or install new Leasehold Improvements and perform 

3

 

any other Alterations in the Premises, at its sole expense and in a good and workmanlike manner so long as such modifications or new Leasehold Improvements comply with Article V of the Head Lease, and so long as Subtenant obtains Sublandlord’s (and, as applicable under the Head Lease, Head Landlord’s) written approval of all plans and specifications with respect thereto; it being agreed, however, that (I) Sublandlord shall cooperate with Subtenant to obtain any required approvals under the Head Lease from Head Landlord, and (II) if Sublandlord’s approval is required, Sublandlord’s approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Other than Sublandlord’s reasonable out of pocket costs to review plans and specifications of requested Leasehold Improvements or Alterations, there shall be no charges, administration fees or any other coordination fees charged by the Sublandlord for the supervision of any work performed by or on behalf of Subtenant in the Premises. During construction of any modification or new Leasehold Improvements, Subtenant or its general contractor shall procure and maintain in effect all insurance coverages required under the Head Lease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subtenant shall be obligated to remove any Leasehold Improvements and Alterations from the Premises that were installed by Subtenant from and after the Possession Date, so long as the same are required to be removed under the Head Lease, unless Sublandlord, Subtenant, and Head Landlord expressly agree otherwise in writing. Subject to Section 19 hereof, except as otherwise expressly provided above and except as otherwise expressly agreed to among Sublandlord, Subtenant and Head Landlord

SUBLANDLORD DEFAULT; SUBTENANT’S REMEDIES

In the event Sublandlord shall be in default of any of its covenants or obligations under the Sublease following notice thereof and a reasonable period of time to cure (not to exceed 30 days), unless such default is such that it cannot be cured within 30 days, in which case, the cure period shall be extended so long as Sublandlord commences cure within such 30-day period and pursues such cure diligently to completion. If Sublandlord fails to cure such default within the periods prescribed above, Subtenant shall have the right to perform the same on behalf of Sublandlord and any costs and expenses incurred by Subtenant in connection with such performance shall be reimbursed by Sublandlord to Subtenant within thirty (30) days following receipt of an invoice therefor.

13.
	
SUBTENANT DEFAULT; SUBLANDLORD’S REMEDIES. Any of the following occurrences shall constitute a default by Subtenant:

Sublandlord shall keep the Head Lease in full force and effect during the Term hereof and without default or amendment, and to remedy all breaches of the Head Lease. Sublandlord shall take all commercially reasonable steps to (I) assist Subtenant as Subtenant may from time-to-time request, in obtaining services and utilities from Head Landlord pursuant to the Head Lease, (II) enforce Sublandlord’s rights against Head Landlord under the Head Lease for the benefit of Subtenant upon Subtenant’s request therefor (and to promptly forward to Head Landlord any notices or requests for consent as Subtenant may reasonably request and to make such requests on behalf of Subtenant), and (III) enforce the performance of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Head Lease by Head Landlord throughout the Term (including, without limitation, exercising all of its rights and remedies available under the Head Lease). Sublandlord hereby represents and warrants to Subtenant that it has the right and authority to enter into this Sublease subject to Head Landlord’s consent.

14.2Subordination. Subject to the provisions of this Sublease, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, this Sublease is subject and subordinate to the Head Lease, to all ground and underlying leases, to all mortgages and deeds of trust which may now or hereafter affect the Building, and to any and all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof. Sublandlord agrees not to effect any modification or amendment of the Head Lease without the written consent of Subtenant (which consent may be given or withheld in Subtenant’s sole and absolute discretion). As of the date hereof, to the best of Sublandlord’s actual knowledge, Seller represents and warrants that it is not aware of any such ground or underlying leases which affect the Building.

6

 

Subtenant agrees, upon request of Sublandlord, at any time or times, to execute and deliver to Sublandlord any and all instruments (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Subtenant) as shall be required by Head Landlord to effect a subordination of this Sublease to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust, or comparable security instrument in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Head Lease.

14.3Adherence to Terms of Head Lease. Subject to the provisions of this Sublease, except as herein otherwise expressly provided and except as may be inconsistent with the provisions of this Sublease (it being agreed that in the case of such inconsistency, the last grammatical paragraph of this Section 14.3 shall govern), Subtenant agrees to be bound by all obligations and responsibilities of Sublandlord as tenant under the Head Lease. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties agree that the following provisions of the Head Lease are inconsistent with the terms of this Sublease and therefore are not incorporated into this Sublease and shall be inapplicable to this Sublease: Sections 1.01(e), (f), (g), and (i), Section 2.01(b), Section 2.02, Section 2.08(c), Section 2.09, Section 2.12, Section 3.02(b), Sections 5.05(c) and (d), Section 11.06, Section 11.16, Section 11.17, Section 11.22, Section 11.23, and Section 11.26. Subtenant shall neither do nor permit anything to be done that would cause the Head Lease to be terminated or forfeited by reason of any right of termination or forfeiture reserved or vested in Head Landlord under the Head Lease. Except to the extent caused by the acts or omissions of Sublandlord, Subtenant shall defend, indemnify and hold Sublandlord harmless from and against any breach of its obligations under the preceding provisions of this Section, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and costs, including on appeal. 

Sublandlord hereby grants to Subtenant the right to receive all of the services and benefits with respect to the Premises which are to be provided by Landlord, if any, under the Lease with respect to the Premises during the term of this Sublease. 

Sublandlord agrees to pass through to Subtenant all benefits of any rent abatements or rent relief that it shall receive from the Head Landlord pursuant to the Head Lease, including, without limitation, any rent relief provided pursuant to a government relief program. 

The parties hereto agree that, as between Sublandlord and Subtenant, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Head Lease and the provisions of this Sublease, the provisions of this Sublease shall govern and control. 

	
15.
	
RIGHT TO ASSIGN & SUBLEASE

Subtenant shall not sublet all or any portion of the Premises, grant any occupancy rights thereto, or assign this Sublease by operation of law or otherwise, for any period of time without first obtaining Sublandlord’s and Head Landlord’s written consent which may be given or withheld in accordance with Section 8.01 of the Head Lease. No subletting, assignment or other transfer under this Section shall relieve Subtenant of any liability under this Sublease, and no consent to any such transfer shall operate as a waiver of the necessity for consent to a subsequent transfer. Upon Sublandlord’s request, Subtenant promptly shall provide Sublandlord with copies of any instruments of transfer. Request for a sublease, assignment or other transfer shall not relieve Subtenant of the obligation to comply with the terms of this Section for subsequent proposed transfers. 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) Subtenant may, without the Sublandlord’s consent assign this Sublease or sublet the Premises in whole or in part to any holding body corporate, subsidiary body corporate, affiliated company or partnership, or any other partnership, and to any company or partnership with which the Subtenant has merged, amalgamated, consolidated or has 

7

 

split, as defined in the Canada Business Corporations Act as of the Commencement Date, provided that the Subtenant notifies the Sublandlord in writing and remains jointly and severally responsible for the fulfilment of this Sublease obligations, (B) a change of control of Subtenant (or its affiliate) shall not be deemed to be a transfer of this Sublease and shall not require Sublandlord’s consent, and (C) Subtenant shall have right to assign this Sublease or to sublet all or part of the Premises to a Related Entity (as hereinafter defined) without Sublandlord’s prior consent but upon written notice to the Sublandlord. A “Related Entity” means a corporation, partnership or other entity that: (i) holds controlling interest in the Subtenant, (ii) is controlled by the same entity that has controlling interest in the Subtenant, (iii) is wholly owned by the Subtenant; and/or (iii) is a successor entity of the Subtenant.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, subject to Head Landlord’s Consent, (I) Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that the Premises may be occupied and used by the Subtenant and the law firm of Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP and any other Related Entity along with any such entity’s partners, employees, counsel, consultants and contractors (“Permitted Occupants”) without such occupation and use constituting an assignment of this Sublease or a sub-sublease of the Premises and (II) any withdrawal, admission, retirement, death, incompetency or bankruptcy of any partner(s) or member(s) of Subtenant or its affiliates (including, without limitation, Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP) or the reallocation of equity, ownership, voting or other interests in Subtenant (or its affiliates) among partners or members shall not be deemed a transfer hereunder and shall not require Sublandlord’s consent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section including the occupation and use of the Premises by Permitted Occupants as described in this Section (e.g., any payment or other arrangements Subtenant may have with Permitted Occupants to use or occupy the Premises), Subtenant shall at all times remain fully and solely responsible as Subtenant to comply with the terms of this Sublease and Subtenant’s indemnity obligations under Section 16 below shall apply to the acts, omissions, and willful misconduct of any and all Permitted Occupants.

	
16.
	
INDEMNIFICATION

Subject to Section 21 below, Subtenant will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Sublandlord and Head Landlord from any claim, liability or suit, including attorney fees, on behalf of any party for any injury or damage occurring in or about the (a) Premises from any cause whatsoever, except to the extent caused by the negligence or intentional misconduct of Sublandlord or Head Landlord (or any of their respective agents, contractors or employees) and (b) Building, if and to the extent such damage or injury was caused by any act, omission (where there is a duty to act), negligence or intentional act of Subtenant, Subtenant's agents, employees, servants, customers, clients, contractors, or invitees, or Permitted Occupants.

Subject to Section 21 below, Sublandlord shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Subtenant and its officers, directors, members, managers, employees, contractors, and agents, from any claim, liability or suit, including attorney fees, on behalf of any party for any breach of Sublandlord’s representations hereunder and for any default by Sublandlord of any of its covenants and obligations hereunder, except to the extent caused by the negligence or intentional misconduct of Subtenant (or any of its agents, contractors or employees), or any Permitted Occupant.

18.

INSURANCE; MUTUAL WAIVER; WAIVER OF SUBROGATION

The Sublandlord shall continue to maintain the required insurance coverage pursuant to Article VI of the Head Lease, as tenant under the Head Lease. The Subtenant shall, during any period of occupancy, at its sole cost and expense, obtain and maintain for the Term insurance policies in the amounts required under Article VI of the Head Lease and naming Sublandlord and Head Landlord as additional insured. Subtenant shall not be permitted to take possession of the Premises until such time as the Subtenant has provided the Sublandlord with a certificate of insurance demonstrating that such insurance has been obtained. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Sublandlord and Subtenant each release and relieve the other, and waive their entire rights of recovery for any injury or death to any person or for any loss or damage to property located within or constituting a part or all of the Premises or the Building to the extent that such injury, death, loss or damage is covered by (a) the injured party's insurance, or (b) the insurance the injured party is required to carry under this Sublease (and the Head Lease by incorporation by reference), whichever is greater. This waiver applies regardless of whether the loss is due to the negligent acts or omissions of Sublandlord or Subtenant, or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, or invitees. Each of Sublandlord and Subtenant shall have their respective property insurers endorse the applicable insurance policies to reflect the foregoing waiver of claims. Additionally, (i) Sublandlord and Subtenant shall each ensure that all of their insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder shall contain a waiver by the insurer of any rights of subrogation to which such insurer might otherwise be entitled against Sublandlord or Subtenant, as the case may be, or any person for whom Sublandlord or Subtenant, as the case may be, are in law responsible and (ii) Sublandlord and Subtenant, as the case may be, shall ensure that all of their respective insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder shall contain a waiver by the insurer of any rights of subrogation to which such insurer might otherwise be entitled against Sublandlord, Subtenant, or any person for whom Sublandlord or Subtenant are in law responsible.

Tenant. Following the completion of any such Alterations, the Tenant shall provide the Landlord within five (5) days of request, such post-construction documentation that the Landlord reasonably requires, which may include, but is not limited to, professionally prepared as-built drawings that accurately reflect the work that was performed. 

	
(b)
	
If the Alterations would affect the structure of the Building or any of the electrical, plumbing, mechanical, heating, ventilating or air conditioning systems or other base building systems, such work shall at the option of the Landlord be performed by the Landlord at the Tenant's cost. If the Landlord performs such work, then on completion of such work, the cost of the work plus a sum equal to fifteen percent (15%) of said cost representing the Landlord's overhead shall be paid by the Tenant to the Landlord. 

	
(c)
	
If the Tenant installs Leasehold Improvements, or makes Alterations which depart from the Building standard and which restrict access to any Building system or to any structural element of the Building by the Landlord or by any person or corporation authorized by the Landlord, or which restrict the installation of the leasehold improvements of any other tenant in the Building, then the Tenant shall be responsible for all costs incurred by the Landlord in obtaining access to such Building system, or in installing such other tenant's leasehold improvements and the Tenant shall, at the request of the Landlord remove any obstruction in a manner acceptable to the Landlord, failing which the Landlord may remove the same; and the Tenant will pay, or reimburse the Landlord for, the cost of such removal and for any replacement or restoration of such Leasehold Improvements or Alterations. 

Section 5.04 Repair Where Tenant at Fault

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, but subject to Section 6.07, if the Building is damaged or destroyed or requires repair, replacement or alteration as a result of the act or omission of the Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees, licensees, contractors or others for whom it is in law responsible, the cost of the resulting repairs, replacements or alterations plus a sum equal to fifteen percent (15%) of such cost representing the Landlord's overhead, shall be paid by the Tenant to the Landlord. 

Section 5.05 Removal of Improvements and Fixtures

All Leasehold Improvements (other than Trade Fixtures) shall immediately upon their placement, before or during the Term, become the Landlord's property without compensation to the Tenant but the Landlord shall be under no obligation to repair, maintain or insure the same, such matters being the sole responsibility of the Tenant in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. Except as otherwise agreed by the Landlord in writing, no Leasehold Improvements shall be removed from the Premises by the Tenant either during or at the expiry or sooner termination of the Term except that: 

	
(a)
	
the Tenant may, during the Term, in the usual course of its business, remove its Trade Fixtures, provided that the Tenant is not in default under this Lease;

	
(b)
	
the Tenant shall, at the expiry or earlier termination of the Term, at its sole cost, remove its Trade Fixtures from the Premises, failing which, at the option of the Landlord, the Trade Fixtures shall become the property of the Landlord and may be removed from the Premises and sold or disposed of by the Landlord in such manner as it deems advisable;

	
(c)
	
the Tenant shall, at the expiry or earlier termination of the Term, at its sole cost, either remove such of the Leasehold Improvements in the Premises as the Landlord shall require to be removed, and restore the Premises to the condition in which the Tenant took possession of the Premises under the Existing Sublease Consent to the extent required by the Landlord, acting reasonably, or at the Landlord's option, pay to the Landlord the estimated cost of such removal and restoration as determined by the Architect, acting reasonably. If the Landlord requires the Tenant to perform the aforesaid work, then:

	
 
	
(i)
	
the Tenant shall submit detailed demolition drawings to the Landlord for its prior approval, and such work shall be completed under the supervision of the Landlord;

	
 
	
(ii)
	
the Tenant shall, at its expense, repair any damage caused to the Building by such removal; and

	
 
	
(iii)
	
if the Tenant fails to complete such work on or before the expiry of the Term, the Tenant shall pay compensation to the Landlord for each day following such expiry until the completion of such work, at a rate equal to twice the per diem Rent payable during the last month preceding the expiry of the Term, which sum is agreed by the parties to be a reasonable estimate of the damages suffered by the Landlord for the loss of use of the Premises; and

Notwithstanding Section 5.05(c) above, upon not more than six (6) months prior to the expiry of this Lease, the Tenant may request, which request shall be given in writing to the Landlord, a list of those Leasehold Improvements that the Landlord will require to be removed from the Premises and the extent to which the Tenant will be required to restore the Premises or whether the Landlord will require the Tenant to pay the estimated cost for such removal and restoration. In the event that the Landlord fails to respond within a thirty (30) day period, then the Tenant may request a response from the Landlord, which request shall be given in writing to the Landlord within two (2) days following the expiry of such thirty (30) day period, and the Landlord shall have a period of fifteen (15) days following receipt of the Tenant's notice to respond; and

	
(d)
	
the Tenant shall, at the expiry or earlier termination of the Term, at its sole cost, and at the Landlord's option: (i) remove all wiring, cables, and other telecommunications installations installed by the Tenant in the risers of the Building or elsewhere in the Building (the "Wiring") or (ii) pay to the Landlord the estimated cost of removal of the Wiring as determined by the Architect acting reasonably. In the event the Landlord elects that the Tenant shall perform the required work, it shall be completed under the supervision of the Landlord, and the Tenant shall at its expense, repair any damage caused by such removal.

All policies referred to in this Section 6.01 shall:

	
 
	
(i)
	
be taken out with insurers reasonably acceptable to the Landlord;

	
 
	
(ii)
	
be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord : 

	
 
	
(iii)
	
be non-contributing with, and shall apply only as primary and not as excess to any other insurance available to the Landlord;

(d)

Section 6.03 Cancellation of Insurance 

If any insurer under any insurance policy covering any part of the Building or any occupant thereof cancels or threatens to cancel its insurance policy or reduces or threatens to reduce coverage under such policy by reason of the use of the Premises by the Tenant or by any Transferee, or by anyone permitted by the Tenant to be upon the Premises, the Tenant shall remedy such condition within forty-eight (46) hours after notice thereof by the Landlord. 

Section 6.04 Loss or Damage 

The Released Persons shall not be liable for any death or injury arising from or out of any occurrence in, upon, at, or relating to the Lands or Building or damage to property of the Tenant or of others located on the Premises or elsewhere in the Building, nor shall they be responsible for any loss of or damage to any property of the Tenant or others from any cause, whether or not any such death, injury, loss or damage results from the negligence of the Released Persons, their agents, employees, contractors, or others for whom they may, in law, be responsible. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Released Persons shall not be liable for any injury or damage to Persons or property resulting from interruption of utilities or services including but not limited to telecommunications services, or resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, falling ceiling tile, falling fixtures, steam, gas, electricity, water, rain, flood, snow or leaks from any part of the Premises or from the pipes, sprinklers, appliances, plumbing works, roof, windows or subsurface of any floor or ceiling of the Building or from the street or any other place or by dampness or by any other cause whatsoever. The Released Persons shall not be liable for any such damage caused by other tenants or Persons on the Lands or in the Building or by occupants of adjacent property thereto, or the public, or caused by construction or by any private, public or quasi-public work. All property of the Tenant kept or stored on the Premises shall be so kept or stored at the risk of the Tenant only and the Tenant releases and agrees to indemnify the Released Persons and save them harmless from any claims arising out of any damage to the same including, without limitation, any subrogation claims by the Tenant's insurers. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.04 to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that the Landlord is liable for any such death or injury or any such damage to property referred to in this Section 6.04 if any such death or injury or any such damage to property is caused by or to the extent contributed to by the negligence of the Landlord, but only to the extent that: 

	
 
	
(a)
	
(i) the Tenant is not required to have insurance coverage pursuant to Section 6.01 of this Lease, and (ii) the Tenant does not otherwise have insurance coverage for such death or injury or any such damage to property, in either case without taking into account any deductible or co-insurance provisions or other clauses; and 

	
 
	
(b)
	
the Landlord is indemnified by its insurers for any such death or injury or any such damage to property.

Section 6.05 Landlord's Insurance 

The Landlord shall throughout the Term carry: (a) insurance on the Building (excluding the foundations and excavations) and the machinery, boilers and equipment in or servicing the Building and owned by the Landlord or the owners of the Building (excluding any property which the Tenant and other tenants are obliged to insure under Section 6.01 or similar sections of their respective leases) against damage by fire and extended perils coverage; (b) public liability and property damage insurance with respect to the Landlord's operations in the Building; and (c) such other form or forms of insurance as the Landlord or the Mortgagee reasonably considers advisable. Such insurance shall be in such reasonable amounts and with such reasonable deductibles as would be carried by a prudent owner of a reasonably similar building, having regard to size, age and location. Notwithstanding the Landlord's covenant in this Section and notwithstanding any contribution by the Tenant to the cost of the Landlord's insurance premiums, the Tenant acknowledges and agrees that: (i) subject to Section 6.07, the Tenant is not relieved of any liability arising from or contributed to by its negligence or its willful act or omissions; (ii) no insurable interest is conferred upon the Tenant under any insurance policies carried by the Landlord; and (iii) the Tenant has no right to receive any proceeds of any insurance policies carried by the Landlord. 

Section 6.06 Indemnification By the Tenant 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease and notwithstanding any negligence on the part of the Released Persons, the Tenant shall indemnify the Released Persons and save them harmless from all loss (including loss of Net Rent and Additional Rent) claims, actions, damages, liability and expense in connection with loss of life, personal injury, damage to property or any other loss or injury whatsoever arising out of this Lease, or any occurrence in, upon or at the Premises, or the occupancy or use by the Tenant of the Premises or any part thereof, or occasioned wholly or in part by any act or omission of the Tenant or by anyone permitted to be on the Premises by the Tenant except to the extent that the Landlord is liable for such death, injury, loss or damage under Section 6.04. If the Released Persons shall, without fault on their part, be made a party to any litigation commenced by or against the Tenant, then the Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold the Released Persons harmless in connection with such litigation. The Released Persons may, at their option, participate in or assume carriage of any litigation or settlement discussions relating to the foregoing, or any other matter for which the Tenant is required to indemnify the Released Persons under this Lease. Alternatively, the Released Persons may require the Tenant to assume carriage of and responsibility for all or any part of such litigation or discussions. 

Section 6.07 Release By the Landlord 

Despite any other section or clause of this Lease (except the last sentence of this Section 6.07), the Tenant is not responsible for any part, in excess of five million dollars ($5,000,000.00), or the amount of liability insurance coverage available to the Tenant, whichever is the greater, of any loss or damage to property of the Landlord that is located in, or is part of the Building and Lands caused by any of the perils for which the Landlord is required under Section 6.05 to maintain insurance. This release applies whether or not the loss or damage arises from the negligence of the Tenant. This release does not apply, however, to damage arising from the willful or grossly negligent acts of the Tenant.

Section 7.01 No Abatement or Termination 

If the Premises or Building are damaged or destroyed in whole or in part by fire or any other occurrence, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect and there shall be no abatement of Rent except as provided in this Article VII. 

Section 7.02 Damage to Premises 

If the Premises are at any time destroyed or damaged as a result of fire or any other casualty required to be insured against by the Landlord under this Lease or otherwise insured against by the Landlord and not caused or contributed to by the Tenant, then the following provisions shall apply: 

	
(a)
	
if the Premises are rendered untenantable only in part, the Landlord shall diligently repair the Premises to the extent only of its obligations under Section 5.01 and Net Rent shall abate proportionately to the portion of the Premises rendered untenantable from the date of destruction or damage until the Landlord's repairs have been completed; 

	
(b)
	
if the Premises are rendered wholly untenantable, the Landlord shall diligently repair the Premises to the extent only of its obligations pursuant to Section 5.01 and Net Rent shall abate entirely from the date of destruction or damage until the Landlord's repairs have been completed; 

	
(c)
	
if the Premises are not rendered untenantable in whole or in part, the Landlord shall diligently perform such repairs to the Premises to the extent only of its obligations under Section 5.01, but in such circumstances Net Rent shall not terminate or abate; 

	
(d)
	
upon being notified by the Landlord that the Landlord's repairs have been substantially completed, the Tenant shall diligently perform all repairs to the Premises which are the Tenant's responsibility under Section 5.02, and all other work required to fully restore the Premises for use in the Tenant's business, in every case at the Tenant's cost and without any contribution to such cost by the Landlord, whether or not the Landlord has at any time made any contribution to the cost of supply, installation or construction of Leasehold Improvements in the Premises;

(e)
	
nothing in this Section shall require the Landlord to rebuild the Premises in the condition which existed before any such damage or destruction so long as the Premises as rebuilt will have reasonably similar facilities to those in the Premises prior to such damage or destruction, having regard, however, to the age of the Building at such time; and 

	
 
	
(f)
	
nothing in this Section shall require the Landlord to undertake any repairs having a cost in excess of the insurance proceeds actually received by the Landlord with respect to such damage or destruction. 

Section 7.03 Right of Termination 

Notwithstanding Section 7.02, if the damage or destruction which has occurred in the Premises is such that in the reasonable opinion of the Landlord the Premises cannot be rebuilt or made fit for the purposes of the Tenant within ninety (90) days of the happening of the damage or destruction, the Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease on notice to the Tenant given within thirty (30) days after such damage or destruction. If such notice of termination is given, Rent shall be apportioned and paid to the date of such damage or destruction and the Tenant shall immediately deliver vacant possession of the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease. 

Section 7.04 Destruction of or Damage to Building 

	
(a)
	
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease and specifically notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.03, if 

	
 
	
(i)

(ii)
	
a portion of the Building or Lands which materially affect access or services essential thereto; 

are damaged or destroyed by any cause whatsoever (irrespective of whether the Premises are damaged or destroyed) and if, in the opinion of the Landlord acting reasonably, the Building cannot be rebuilt or made fit for the purposes of their respective tenants within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the occurrence of the damage or destruction; then the Landlord may at its option (to be exercised by written notice to the Tenant within sixty (60) days following any such occurrence), terminate this Lease. In such event, the Term and the tenancy hereby created shall expire upon the thirtieth (30th) day after such notice is given, without indemnity or penalty payable by, or any other recourse against the Released Persons, and the Tenant shall, within such thirty (30) day period, vacate the Premises and surrender them to the Landlord with the Landlord having the right to re-enter and repossess the Premises discharged of this Lease and to expel all Persons and remove all property therefrom.

(b)
	
If the Landlord is entitled to, but does not elect to terminate this Lease under Section 7.04(a), the Landlord shall, following such damage or destruction, diligently repair if necessary that part of the Building damaged or destroyed, but only to the extent of the Landlord's obligations under the terms of the various leases for premises in the Building and exclusive of any tenant's responsibilities with respect to such repair. If the Landlord elects to repair, the Landlord may do so in accordance with plans and specifications other than those used in the original construction of the Building. 

Section 7.05 Architect's Certificate 

The certificate of the Architect shall bind the parties as to: (a) the percentage of the Total Rentable Area of the Building damaged or destroyed; (b) whether or not the Premises are rendered untenantable and the percentage of the Premises rendered untenantable; (c) the date upon which either the Landlord's or Tenant's work of reconstruction or repair is completed or substantially completed and the date when the Premises are rendered tenantable; and (d) the state of completion of any work of the Landlord or the Tenant. 

ARTICLE VIII -ASSIGNMENT, SUBLETTING AND TRANSFERS

 

Section 8.01 Assignments, Subleases and Transfers 

Save and except as permitted in Section 8.01A, the Tenant shall not enter into, consent to, or permit (whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law) any Transfer without the prior written consent of the Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld but shall be subject to the Landlord's rights under Section 8.02. Notwithstanding any statutory provision to the contrary, it shall not be considered unreasonable for the Landlord to take into account the following factors in deciding whether to grant or withhold its consent: 

	
(a)
	
whether such Transfer is in violation or in breach of any covenants or restrictions made or granted by the Landlord to other tenants or occupants or prospective tenants or occupants of the Building; 

	
(b)
	
whether in the Landlord's reasonable opinion, the financial background, business history and capability of the proposed Transferee is satisfactory; 

	
(c)
	
whether the nature of the business of the proposed Transferee might harm the Landlord's business or reputation or reflect unfavourably on the Building or its tenants, or is unethical or illegal; 

	
(d)
	
if the Transfer is to an existing tenant of the Landlord; 

	
(e)
	
the proposed assignee or sublessee is a governmental department, agency or consulate;

SIERRA ONCOLOGY-HSBC 2150-MAY 2 2017/L T
	
-12-
	

 

 

 

		

	
(f)
	
in the Landlord's reasonable judgment, the use of the Premises by the proposed assignee or sublessee would involve occupancy by other than primarily general office personnel or otherwise in violation of Section 1.05 of this Lease, would involve any alterations which would lessen the value of the leasehold improvements in the Premises, would require increased services, including increased load on elevator services, by the Landlord or alter the reputation or character of the Building; 

	
(g)
	
in the Landlord's reasonable judgment, the proposed assignee or sublessee does not have a good reputation in the community as a tenant of property; 

	
(h)
	
the use of the Premises by the proposed assignee or subtenant will violate any applicable law, by-law or regulation; 

	
(i)
	
there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default by the Tenant under this Lease; 

	
(j)
	
in the case of a subletting of less than the entire Premises, if the subletting would result in the division of any one floor of the Premises into more than three subspaces or would require access to be provided through space leased or held for lease to another tenant or improvements to be made outside of the Premises; or 

	
(k)
	
the Landlord does not receive sufficient information from the Tenant of the proposed assignee or subtenant to enable it to make a determination concerning the matters herein set out. 

Consent by the Landlord to any Transfer if granted shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for such consent to any subsequent Transfer. This prohibition against Transfer shall include a prohibition against any Transfer by operation of law and no Transfer shall take place by reason of the failure of the Landlord to give notice to the Tenant within thirty (30) days as required by Section 8.02. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the Tenant may not assign this Lease while any Rent is in arrears hereunder or while any other Event of Default exists hereunder. Before making any assignment of this Lease the Tenant will pay all Rent in arrears and will remedy any Event of Default which then exists or will cause any Event of Default to cease to exist. 

Section 8.01 A Transfer to a Permitted Transferee 

Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in Section 8.01, and so long as the Required Conditions apply, the Tenant shall not require the consent of the Landlord (but in each case shall provide the Landlord with prior written notice) in the case of any Transfer to an entity which is: 

	
(a)
	
an Affiliate (within the meaning of the Canada Business Corporations Act) of Sierra Oncology Canada ULC, but only so long as such Affiliate remains an Affiliate of Sierra Oncology Canada ULC; or 

	
(b)
	
a corporation or other legal entity which is a successor of the Tenant by way of a merge, amalgamation, consolidation or other form of re-organization with an Affiliate of Oncology Canada ULC, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise; 

(collectively, a "Permitted Transferee"), 

provided that in either case (1) such Permitted Transferee shall carry on only the same business as is permitted to be carried on by the Tenant pursuant to Section 1.05; (2) the Tenant shall cause such Permitted Transferee to enter into an agreement prepared by and in a form satisfactory to the Landlord in which such Permitted Transferee covenants directly with the Landlord to be bound by all the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Lease as if such Permitted Transferee had originally executed the Lease as Tenant; and (3) all the provisions of Section 8.03 shall apply in respect of such Transfer. 

In no event will any Transfer permitted pursuant to this Section 8.01A relieve the Tenant from the performance of the terms, covenants and conditions herein on its part contained to be observed and performed. In the event of any further proposed Transfer, the terms of this Lease shall prevail as if this Section 8.01A had not formed part of this Lease. 

Section 8.02 Landlord's Rights 

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 portion of the Premises affected thereby, and the financial and other terms of the Transfer, and shall provide such financial, business or other information relating to the proposed Transferee and its principals as the Landlord or any Mortgagee requires, together with copies of any documents which record the particulars of the proposed Transfer. The Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days after having received such notice and all requested information, notify the Tenant either that: 

	
(a)
	
 it consents or does not consent to the Transfer in accordance with the provisions and qualifications of this Article VIII; or 

	
(b)
	
it elects to terminate this Lease as to the whole or part, as the case may be, of the Premises affected by the proposed Transfer, in preference to giving such consent. 

If the Landlord elects to terminate this Lease 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 such notice of termination. If the Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, the Tenant shall notify the Landlord within ten (10) days thereafter of the Tenant's intention either to refrain from such Transfer or to accept termination of this Lease or the portion 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 termination. 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. If the Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease then Section 8.01 and 8.03 shall continue to apply to such Transfer. For greater certainty, the foregoing does not apply to a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee. 

Section 8.03 Conditions of Transfer 

The following terms and conditions apply in respect of a Transfer: 

	
(a)
	
If there is a permitted Transfer, the Landlord may collect rent from the Transferee and apply the net amount collected to the Rent payable under this Lease but no acceptance by the Landlord of any payments by a Transferee shall be deemed a waiver of the Tenant's covenants or any acceptance of the Transferee as tenant or a release of the Tenant from the further performance by the Tenant of its obligations under this Lease. Any consent by the Landlord shall be subject to the Tenant and Transferee executing an agreement with the Landlord agreeing: (i) 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; and (ii) to amend the Lease to incorporate such terms, covenants and conditions as are necessary so that the Lease will be in accordance with the Landlord's standard form of office lease in use for the Building at the time of the Transfer, and so as to incorporate any conditions imposed by the Landlord in its consent or required by this Section 8.03. 

	
(b)
	
The Tenant shall remain liable under this Lease and shall not be released from performing or observing any of the terms or conditions of this Lease. 

	
(c)
	
The rent and additional rent payable by the Transferee shall not be less than the Net Rent and Additional Rent payable by the Tenant under this Lease as at the effective date of the Transfer, (including any increases provided for in this Lease). 

	
(d)
	
If the net and additional rent to be paid by the Transferee under such Transfer exceeds the Rent payable under this Lease, 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 rent or additional rent for such Transfer, either in the form of cash, goods or services (other than the proceeds of any financing as the result of a Transfer involving a mortgage, charge or similar security interest in this Lease) the Tenant shall forthwith pay to the Landlord an amount equivalent to such consideration. The Tenant and the Transferee shall execute any agreement required by the Landlord to give effect to the foregoing terms. 

	
(e)
	
If the Transfer is a sublease, the Transferee will agree to waive any statutory right to retain the unexpired portion of the term of the sublease or the Term of this Lease or to enter into a lease directly with the Landlord, in the event this Lease is terminated, surrendered, disclaimed or otherwise disposed of or dealt with. 

	
(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 Transferee. 

	
(g)
	
Any document evidencing any Transfer permitted by the Landlord, or setting out any terms applicable to such Transfer or the rights and obligations of the Tenant or Transferee thereunder, shall be prepared by the Landlord or its solicitors and all associated legal costs shall be paid by the Tenant. 

Section 8.04 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 shall be deemed to be a Transfer and subject to all of the provisions of this Article VIII. 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Required Conditions are satisfied, the foregoing requirement that the Tenant make available to the Landlord or its representatives all of its corporate or partnership records shall be suspended provided that, upon the request of the Landlord, the Tenant will provide a certificate executed by the President of the Tenant, certifying whether or not a Change of Control has occurred and, if so, the particulars of such Change of Control. 

Section 8.05 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 and the publications in which such advertisement is to be placed are approved in writing by the Landlord. No such advertisement shall contain any reference to the rental rate of the Premises. 

Section 8.06 Assignment By Landlord 

The Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to sell, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Building or Lands or this Lease or any interest of the Landlord in this Lease. To the extent that the purchaser or assignee from the Landlord assumes the obligations of the Landlord under this Lease, the Landlord shall thereupon and without further agreement be released from all liability under this Lease.

ARTICLE IX- DEFAULT

Section 9.01 Default and Remedies 

If and whenever an Event of Default occurs, then without prejudice to any other rights which it has pursuant to this Lease or at law, the Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies, which are cumulative and not alternative: 

	
(a)
	
 terminate this Lease by notice to the Tenant, whether or not the Landlord has, with respect to the same or another Event of Default, previously elected or pursued a right or remedy which is inconsistent with termination of this Lease; 

	
(b)
	
to enter the Premises as agent of the Tenant and to relet the Premises for whatever term, and on such terms as the Landlord in its discretion may determine and to receive the rent therefor and as agent of the Tenant to take possession of any property of the Tenant on the Premises, to store such property at the expense and risk of the Tenant or to sell or otherwise dispose of such property in such manner as the Landlord may see fit without notice to the Tenant; to make alterations to the Premises to facilitate their reletting; and to 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 in payment of future Rent as it becomes due and payable. The Tenant shall remain liable for any deficiency to the Landlord. If any reletting extends for a period beyond the end of the Term, such reletting shall not constitute a termination of this Lease, but a reletting as agent of the Tenant up to the end of the Term and a letting thereafter by the Landlord for its own account; 

	
(c)
	
to remedy or attempt to remedy any default of the Tenant under this Lease for the account of the Tenant and to enter upon the Premises for such purposes. No notice of the Landlord's intention to perform such covenants need be given the Tenant unless expressly required by this Lease. The Landlord shall not be liable to the Tenant for any loss, injury or damage caused by acts of the Landlord in remedying or attempting to remedy such default and the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord all expenses incurred by the Landlord in connection with remedying or attempting to remedy such default; 

	
(d)
	
to recover from the Tenant all damages, and expenses incurred by the Landlord as a result of any breach by the Tenant including, if the Landlord terminates this Lease, 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; 

	
(e)
	
to recover from the Tenant the full amount of the current month's Rent together with the next three (3) months' installments of Rent, all of which shall accrue on a day-to-day basis and shall immediately become due and payable as accelerated rent; and 

	
(f)
	
if the Lease has been terminated in accordance with Section 9.01 (a), to recover from the Tenant the unamortized portion of any leasehold improvement allowance or inducement paid or given by the Landlord under the terms of this Lease, calculated from the date which is the later of the date of payment by the Landlord or the Commencement Date, on the basis of an assumed rate of depreciation on a straight line basis to zero over the initial Term of this Lease. 

Section 9.02 Distress 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease or any provision of applicable legislation, none of the goods and chattels of the Tenant 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. The Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Landlord is entitled to levy by distress any accelerated rent which becomes due and is payable pursuant to Section 9.01 (e) of this Lease. 

Section 9.03 Damages and Costs 

The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord all damages and costs (including, without limitation, all legal fees on a solicitor and client or substantial indemnity basis) incurred by the Landlord 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. 

Section 9.04 Allocation of Payments 

The Landlord may at its option apply sums received from the Tenant against any amounts due and payable by the Tenant under this Lease in such manner as the Landlord sees fit. 

Section 9.05 Survival of Obligations 

If the Tenant has failed to fulfill its obligations under this Lease with respect to the payment of Rent, the maintenance, repair and alteration of the Premises and removal of improvements and fixtures from the Premises during or at the end of the Term, such obligations and the Landlord's rights in respect thereto shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the expiry, surrender or sooner termination of the Term.

Operating Costs in the financial year of the Landlord or portion thereof that such expenditures are incurred. The Landlord shall not be liable as a result of undertaking any action or work to comply with any such regulations, orders, laws and requirements even where the same results in a reduction, change, or elimination in heating, ventilation or air-conditioning in the Premises or Building, or any part thereof, or any other service or utility provided by the Landlord. 

Section 11.17 1ndemnity Agreement 

If any Indemnifier is named in this Lease, the Indemnifier agrees to execute and deliver to the Landlord an indemnity agreement in the form attached as Schedule ‘‘F’’ hereto (with blanks completed) with respect to this Lease and any and all renewals hereof; and the Tenant agrees that failure of the Indemnifier to do so shall constitute an Event of Default.

Section 11.20 Accord and Satisfaction 

No payment by the Tenant or receipt of the Landlord of a lesser amount than the monthly instalment of Net Rent and Additional Rent herein stipulated will be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated monthly instalment of Net Rent and Additional Rent, nor will an endorsement or statement on a cheque or in a letter accompanying a cheque or payment as Rent be deemed an acknowledgement of full payment or an accord and satisfaction, and the Landlord may accept a cheque or payment without prejudice to the Landlord's right to recover the balance of the Rent or pursue any other remedy. No payment of Rent hereunder made by any third party and accepted by the Landlord will constitute or in any way be interpreted to be the consent or acknowledgement by the Landlord to an assignment or subletting by the Tenant.

1.4
	
Regulatory Standards 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.2 herein, in the event that any governmental authority imposes a resource reduction target on the Building for any utility or resource otherwise than as set out in Section 1.2 above, then the Environmental Objectives shall be deemed to have been amended so as to stipulate such resource reduction target and all changes required to be made by the Landlord to the Environmental Management Plan, or which are necessitated as a result of such mandatory resource reduction target, shall be deemed to be included and permitted, as the case may be, pursuant to the provisions of this Section and this Lease. 

	
1.5
	
Carbon Offsets 

The Landlord shall be entitled to all Carbon Offset Credits that may be created, credited or recoverable as a result of activities conducted within the Premises or the Building, excluding Carbon Offset Credits to which the Tenant is entitled in accordance with Applicable Law.
