Section 2.05    Rent Past Due

If the Tenant fails to pay any Rent or any other amount when due by the Tenant under this Lease (the “Unpaid Amount”), the Tenant shall pay upon demand a financial charge on any such Unpaid Amount from the due date thereof to the payment thereof, the amount of which finance charge shall be the amount obtained by multiplying the Unpaid Amount by the rate per annum which is the greater of (a) four (4) percentage points in excess of the Prime Rate, calculated and compounded daily, with any adjustments in the Prime Rate to be effective on the date of any change in the Prime Rate, or (b) eighteen percent (18%) per annum calculated and compounded daily, but in no event shall the financial charge on any Unpaid Amount be greater than the maximum, if any, permitted by law. Nothing herein contained shall be constructed so as to compel the Landlord to accept any payment of Rent in arrears should the Landlord elect to apply its rights or remedies under the forfeiture or any other provision of this Lease in the event of default hereunder by the Tenant. Any cheque of the Tenant returned to the Landlord because of non-sufficient funds or for any other reason by financial institution shall be immediately replaced by a certified cheque by the Tenant delivered to the Landlord.

Despite any other provision of this Lease, any amount or amounts from time to time payable by the Tenant to the Landlord under this Section 2.05 as a financial charge or financial charges shall, in each case, be deemed not to be consideration for the supply of space under this Lease, but shall, in each case, be considered to be Rent for the purposes of the Landlord’s rights and remedies for non-payment and recovery of any such amount or amounts.

ARTICLE III.        TAXES, OPERATING COSTS AND UTILITIES

Section 3.01    Taxes Payable by Landlord

The Landlord will, subject to Sections 3.02, 3.03 and 3.04 pay all Taxes directly to the taxing authority. The Landlord may, nevertheless, defer payment of Taxes to the fullest extent permitted by law, so long as it diligently prosecutes any contest or appeal of Taxes.

Section 3.02    Taxes Payable by Xxxxxx

(a) If there are separate real property tax bills and separate real property assessment notices for the Leased Premises and the non-leasable areas of the Building and the Lands, subject to Section 3.02(b), the Tenant shall (i) pay to the Landlord or to the taxing authorities if the Landlord so directs, and discharge during the Term and within the times provided for by the taxing authorities, all Taxes that are levied, rated, charged or assessed from time to time, respectively, against the Leased Premises or any part thereof, on the basis of a separate real property tax bill and separate assessment notice rendered by any lawful taxing authority; (ii) within ten (10) days after receipt of such separate real property tax bill and separate assessment notice, provide a copy thereof to the Landlord; (iii) promptly deliver to the Landlord receipts evidencing the payment of all such Taxes and such other information in connection therewith as the Landlord reasonably requires; and (iv) pay in accordance with Section 3.05, its Proportionate Share of all Taxes levied, rated, charged or assessed against the Building and the Lands including, without limitation, the Building’s portion (as determined by the Landlord) of such Taxes levied or assessed against the Common Areas and Facilities but excluding all portions thereof designated or intended by the Landlord to be leased to tenants.

8

(b) If there are not separate real property tax bills and separate real property assessment notices for the Leased Premises and the non-leasable areas of the Building or, in any event, if the Landlord so elects, the Tenant shall not be required to pay the amounts described in Section 3.02(a) but shall pay monthly in advance or otherwise as the Landlord directs, in accordance with Section 3.05, its Proportionate Share of all Taxes allocated by the Landlord to the Building or the Lands, including the Common Areas and Facilities, plus an administration fee of fifteen percent (15%) thereof.

(c) If the Landlord, acting equitably, determines that as a result of the construction or installation of any Leasehold Improvements or Trade Fixtures in the Leased Premises or the use of the Leased Premises or the particular location of the Leased Premises within the Building, the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes payable in accordance with Section 3.02(b) does not accurately reflect the proper share of the Taxes which should in the Landlord’s opinion be payable by the Tenant, the Landlord may increase or decrease the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes and the Tenant will pay such adjusted amount rather than the Tenant’s Proportionate Share as set out in Section 3.02(b), plus an administration fee of fifteen percent (15%) thereof.

(d) If the Tenant elects to have the Leased Premises or any part thereof assessed for separate school taxes, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord as Additional Rent, as soon as the amount of such separate school taxes is ascertained, any amount by which the amount of separate school taxes exceeds the amount which would otherwise have been payable for school taxes had such election not been made.

Section 3.03    Business Taxes and Other Taxes of the Tenant

(a) The Tenant will pay to the lawful taxing authorities or to the Landlord, as the Landlord directs, before delinquency, all Business Taxes imposed in respect of the Tenant’s business and assets in, or use, enjoyment or occupancy of, or improvements to, the Leased Premises and the Building or any portion thereof. The Tenant shall promptly deliver to the Landlord receipts evidencing payment of all such Business Taxes and such other information in connection therewith as the Landlord reasonably requires. If there are no separate bills issued by the relevant authority for Business Taxes, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of all Business Taxes levied, rated, charged or assessed on the Building, plus an administration fee of fifteen percent (15%) thereof.

(b) The Tenant, will pay to the Landlord (acting as agent for the taxing authority if applicable) or directly to the taxing authority (if required by the applicable legislation) in the manner specified by the Landlord, the full amount of all Goods and Services Taxes, and any other taxes imposed on the Tenant in respect of the Rent payable by the Tenant under this Lease, or in respect of the rental of premises by the Tenant under this Lease (collectively and individually, “Sales Taxes”). Sales Taxes so payable by the Tenant will be: (i) calculated by the Landlord in accordance with the applicable legislation; (ii) paid by the Tenant at the same time as the amounts to which the Sales Taxes apply are payable to the Landlord under the terms of this Lease (or upon demand at such other time or times as the Landlord from time to time determines); and (iii) considered not to be Rent, despite anything else in this Lease, but the Landlord will have all of the same remedies for and rights of recovery with respect to such amounts as it has for non-payment of Rent under this Lease or at law.

Section 3.04    Tenant’s Contribution to Operating Costs

The Tenant will pay to the Landlord, in accordance with Section 3.05, its Proportionate Share of Operating Costs. The Tenant acknowledges that Operating Costs may be allocated by the Landlord to the various components of the Building and that the Landlord may adjust Operating Costs and/or the denominator of the Tenant’s Proportionate Share fraction in accordance with current practices relevant to multi-use commercial developments on a basis consistent with the benefits derived by the tenants of each component of the Building and having regard to the nature of the particular costs and expenses being allocated.

Section 3.05    Payment of Taxes and Operating Costs

(a) The amounts payable by the Tenant under Sections 3.02 and 3.04 (and under Section 3.03, if applicable) may be estimated from time to time by the Landlord. Commencing on the Commencement Date, the Tenant shall pay the Landlord such estimated amounts payable under Sections 3.02 and 3.04 (and under Section 3.03, if applicable), in equal consecutive monthly instalments in advance, on the first day of every month in the period for which the estimate is made. The Landlord may from time to time revise any of such estimates and in such event the Tenant’s monthly payments will be adjusted accordingly beginning with the first day of the calendar month after the Landlord notifies the Tenant of the revised estimate and the adjusted monthly amounts. Any such amounts payable for any fractional month in which the Commencement Date occurs, or for any fractional month at the end of the Term, will be pro-rated on a daily basis.

(b) Within ninety (90) days after the end of the period for which the estimated payments have been made, the Landlord will deliver to the Tenant an audited statement of the exact amounts payable by the Tenant under Sections 3.02 and 3.04 (and under Section 3.03, if applicable). Said statement shall be completed by a certified accountant or other qualified financial person. If

9

necessary, an adjustment will be made between the parties within fifteen (15) days after the Tenant has been advised of the actual amounts. If the Tenant has paid in excess of the amounts due, the excess shall be credited by the Landlord against Rent then or in the future owing by the Tenant under this Lease. If the amount the Tenant has paid is less than the amounts due, the Tenant agrees to pay such additional amounts due with the next monthly instalment of Basic Rent. This provision shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Failure of the Landlord to render any statement under this subsection 3.05(b) shall not (i) prejudice the Landlord’s right to render such statement thereafter or with respect to any other period, or (ii) relieve the Tenant from its obligations hereunder. The rendering of any such statement shall also not affect the Landlord’s right subsequently to render an amended or corrected statement.

Section 3.06    Charges for Utilities

(a) The Tenant shall be solely responsible for and shall promptly pay as Additional Rent to the Landlord, or as it otherwise directs, in the manner hereinafter provided as a charge with respect to the Leased Premises (the “Charge”) the aggregate, without duplication, of (i) the total cost of supplying Utilities used or consumed in or with respect to the Leased Premises or allocated to them by the Landlord; (ii) the cost of any other charges levied or assessed in lieu of or in addition to such Utilities as determined by the Landlord including, without limitation, the equitable allocation to the Leased Premises of an additional charge, as determined by the Landlord, for the excess supply to and usage of the Utilities in the Leased Premises; and (iii) all costs incurred by the Landlord in determining or allocating the Charge or determining the Utilities including, without limitation, professional, engineering and consulting fees and expenses and an administration fee of fifteen percent (15%) of the total costs hereinbefore set out in this Sub-section 3.06(a).

(i) If the Landlord elects, for the more efficient and proper operation of the Building, or is required by municipal by-law or the suppliers of the Utilities, to purchase the Utilities or any of them for the Building, the Tenant shall purchase such Utilities and pay for such Utilities as additional Rent forthwith on demand to the Landlord at rates not in excess of the rates charged by such suppliers for such Utilities, if applicable;

(ii) The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, as Additional Rent, the Charge for Utilities in consecutive monthly instalments in advance based on estimates by the Landlord and subject to adjustment by the Landlord within a reasonable time after the end of the Year for which such estimate has been made; and

(c) The Landlord may determine in a reasonable and equitable manner the Charge applicable to the Leased Premises by allocating the Utilities for the Building amongst the several components and areas of the Building, including the Common Areas and Facilities, the Leasable Premises and other premises available for leasing which do not constitute part of the Leasable Premises.

(d) If the suppliers of the Utilities require that the Tenant enter into contracts or arrangements with such suppliers in connection with such Utilities, the Tenant shall be responsible to enter into such contracts or other arrangements and to pay whatever deposits or other amounts that are payable under such contracts or other arrangements.

The Tenant shall pay the charges for pick up and disposal of any of the Tenant’s refuse or rubbish. The Tenant shall not burn any trash or garbage of any kind in or about the Leased Premises or any part of or near the Building;

(i) the Landlord may nevertheless refuse to supply such excess Utilities if, in the Landlord’s sole opinion, the supplying of additional facilities or excess Utilities may affect the operation or aesthetics of the Building, or Structure, or in any way reduce the efficiency of existing electricity, water or other Utilities supplied to the Building; and

(ii) the actual cost of supplying such additional facilities or excess Utilities shall be paid by the Tenant to the Landlord upon demand together with all costs incurred by the Landlord in determining or allocating the additional charge for Utilities including, without limitation, professional engineering and consulting fees and an administration fee of fifteen percent (15%) of all such costs and charges;

(d) except temporarily when repairs are being made, the Landlord shall provide elevator service, during Normal Business Hours, for use by the Tenant in common with others. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Landlord shall not be liable and the Tenant agrees to release and hold harmless the Landlord from any claim, loss or damage resulting from (1) any interruption or disruption of elevator service caused or contributed to by mechanical failure; (2) any failure by the Landlord to provide elevator service during any period of power interruption; or (3) any cause beyond the control of the Landlord.

In determining whether the Tenant is liable for increased premiums and the amount for which the Tenant is responsible, a schedule issued by the organization that computes the insurance rate on the Building and Lands showing the components of the rate will be conclusive evidence of the items that make up the rate. The Tenant shall, at its expense, comply promptly with all recommendations of any insurance rating and inspection authority or of any insurer, now or hereafter in effect, pertaining to or affecting the Leased Premises or the Building.

Section 6.03    Cancellation of Insurance

Section 6.04    Loss or Damage

(b) Notwithstanding the Landlord’s obligation to insure under Section 6.05(a) and any contribution by the Tenant to the cost of the Landlord’s insurance premiums, (i) the Tenant is not relieved of any liability arising from or contributed to by its negligence or its wilful acts or omissions, (ii) no insurable interest is conferred upon the Tenant under the Landlord’s insurance policies, and (iii) the Tenant has no right to receive proceeds from the Landlord’s insurance policies.

(c) Nothing in this Section 8.01 requires the Landlord to rebuild the Leased Premises in the condition and state that existed before the damage, but the Leased Premises, as rebuilt, will have reasonably similar facilities and services to those in the Leased Premises prior to the damage.

All Rent shall be due and payable without reduction or abatement subsequent to the destruction or damage and until the date of termination, unless the Leased Premises shall have been destroyed or damaged as well, in which event the provisions of Section 8.01 hereof shall apply.

(b) If any part of the Building is destroyed or damaged and the Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease, the Landlord will commence diligently to restore the Building, to the extent only of insurance proceeds actually received by the Landlord and to the extent only of the Landlord’s Work described in the various leases for the affected premises in the Building, and exclusive of any tenants responsibilities set out therein. If the Landlord elects to restore the Building, the Landlord may restore according to plans and specifications and working drawings other than those used in the original construction of the Building.

(c) Despite anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, and without limiting the Landlord’s right or remedies hereunder, (i) if damage or destruction occurs to the Building or any part thereof by reason of any cause in respect of which there are no proceeds of insurance available to the Landlord, or if the proceeds of insurance available to the Landlord are insufficient to pay the Landlord for the costs of rebuilding or making fit the Building or any part thereof (including the Leased Premises), or if any Mortgagee or other Person entitled to the proceeds of insurance does not consent to the payment to the Landlord of such proceeds for such purpose, or if in the Landlord’s opinion any such damage or destruction

22

is caused by any fault, neglect, default, negligence, act or omission of the Tenant or those for whom the Tenant is in law responsible or any other Person entering upon the Leased Premises under express or implied invitation of the Tenant, then the Landlord may, without obligation or liability to the Tenant, terminate this Lease on thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Tenant and all Rent shall be adjusted as of, and the Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Leased Premises on, such termination date, and (ii) if at any time during the Term of this Lease or any renewal or extension thereof, the Landlord intends to demolish, renovate, extend or expand the Building or any part thereof, or sell or dispose of the Landlord’s interest in the Building or any part thereof, then the Tenant agrees that the Landlord, without liability or obligation to the Tenant, shall have the right to terminate this Lease, upon written notice to the Tenant, given by the Landlord to the Tenant at least six (6) months prior to the date of termination of this Lease, and upon such termination date the Tenant shall surrender and deliver up vacant possession of the Leased Premises in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, all Rent shall be adjusted as of such termination date, and the Tenant shall promptly execute all documents and assurances that are required to give effect to the provisions of this subsection 8.02(c).

Section 8.03    Expropriation

Both the Landlord and Tenant agree to co-operate with the other regarding an expropriation of the Leased Premises or the Lands or Building or any part thereof, so that each may receive the maximum award to which they are respectively entitled at law. To the extent that any portion of the Lands or Building other than the Leased Premises is expropriated, the full proceeds accruing or awarded as a result will belong to the Landlord and the Tenant will abandon or assign to the Landlord any rights which the Tenant may have or acquire by operation of law to those proceeds or awards and will execute all such documents as in the opinion of the Landlord are necessary to give effect to this intention.

Section 8.04    Architect

The opinion, decision or certificate of the Architect will bind the parties as to (a) the percentage of the Rentable Area of the Building damaged or destroyed; (b) the period of time required to restore the Leased Premises or the Building; (c) whether and to what extent the Leased Premises are rendered untenantable; and (d) the date upon which the Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work is completed or substantially completed.

ARTICLE IX.        ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

Section 9.01    Assignment and Subletting

(a) The Tenant will not assign this Lease, sublet, share or part with possession of all or any part of the Leased Premises, or mortgage or encumber this Lease, the Leasehold Improvements, the Trade Fixtures or the Leased Premises (collectively, a “Transfer”), by or in favour of any Person (a “Transferee”) without first submitting to the Landlord, in accordance with Section 9.01(d), a written request for the Landlord’s consent to the Transfer, and obtaining the Landlord’s prior written consent to the Transfer, which consent (subject to Section 9.01(d)) will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary including the Commercial Tenancies Act (Ontario) or any other statute or common law, the Landlord will be deemed to be reasonable in withholding its consent to any Transfer if:

(i) the Transfer is contrary to any covenants or restrictions granted by the Landlord to other existing or prospective tenants or occupants of the Building, or to the Mortgagee or any other parties;

(ii) in the Landlord’s opinion the financial background, business history and capability of the Transferee is not satisfactory;

(iii) the Transfer is in favour of any existing occupant of the Building; or

(iv) in the Landlord’s opinion, the nature or character of the proposed business of the Transferee is unethical, immoral, illegal or such that it might harm or tend to harm the Landlord’s business or reputation or reflect unfavourably on the whole or any part of the Building, the Landlord or the other tenants of the Building.

(b) The prohibition set out in Section 9.01(a) applies to any change in the direct or indirect effective voting control of the Tenant (if the Tenant is or becomes a corporation), unless (i) the Tenant is a public corporation whose shares are listed and traded on any recognized stock exchange in Canada or the United States, and (ii) the Landlord is satisfied that there will be a continuity of business practices and polices, and management of the Tenant. If the Tenant is a partnership or is controlled by a partnership (either directly or indirectly), this prohibition against a Transfer also includes a change in the constitution of the partnership resulting from the withdrawal or addition of any partners. The prohibition also applies to an assignment by operation of law. No Transfer may be made where any amount of Rent is lesser than that provided for in this Lease (except in the case of a sub-lease), or otherwise on terms more favourable to the Transferee than the terms set forth in this Lease.

23

(c) The consent by the Landlord to any Transfer will not constitute a waiver of the necessity for the Landlord’s prior written consent to any subsequent Transfer.

(d) Any request by the Tenant for the Landlord’s consent to a Transfer under Section 9.01 (a) will specify the proposed Transferee and provide full particulars of the Transfer including, without limitation, copies of any written offer, agreement or draft agreement with respect to the Transfer, setting out the terms the Tenant is prepared to accept subject to compliance with this Lease and disclosing any monetary payments or other consideration made or to be made by the Transferee as consideration for the Transfer and any other information concerning the Transfer or the financial or business status of the Transferee that the Landlord may require. The Landlord will, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the request and all necessary information, notify the Tenant in writing either that it consents or does not consent to the Transfer.

(e) Following any 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 will constitute a waiver of the requirement for the Landlord’s consent to such Transfer, or an acceptance of the Transferee as the Tenant, or a release of the Tenant from the further performance by the Tenant of its covenants and obligations under this Lease.

(f) Any consent by the Landlord to it Transfer will be subject to the following conditions:

(i) no Transfer or other disposition by the Tenant of this Lease or of any interest under this Lease shall release the Tenant from the performance of any of its covenants or obligations hereunder and the Tenant shall continue to be bound by and liable under this Lease. The Tenant’s liability under the Lease after any Transfer, will continue notwithstanding the bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation of any Transferee or the termination of this Lease for default or the termination, disclaimer, surrender or repudiation of this Lease pursuant to any statute or rule of law;

(ii) all reasonable costs of the Landlord incurred with respect to any assignment or sublease by the Tenant shall be paid by the Tenant forthwith upon demand;

(iii) any legal costs of the Landlord in connection with documents relating to the Transfer or the Landlord’s consent, will be paid by the Tenant together with the Landlord’s administrative charge for providing its consent;

(iv) no Transfer shall take place by reason of a failure by the Landlord to reply to a request by the Tenant for a consent to a Transfer;

(v) the Tenant, at is expense, shall cause the Transferee to execute promptly an agreement (prepared by the Landlord at the Tenant’s expense) directly with the Landlord (i) agreeing to be bound by all the terms of this Lease (including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 5.01 relating to the use of the Leased Premises, but if the Transfer is a sublease, such sublease shall exclude the last day of the Term, and the Tenant shall cause such sublease to contain a covenant by the subtenant to the Landlord that (A) at the Landlord’s option all the subtenant’s right, title and interest in and to the Leased Premises absolutely terminates upon the surrender, release, disclaimer or merger of this Lease, notwithstanding the provisions of the Commercial Tenancies Act (Ontario), and (B) upon notice from the Landlord to the subtenant, with a copy to the Tenant, all amounts payable by the subtenant each month under the sublease shall thenceforth be paid by such tenant directly to the Landlord, who shall apply the same on account of the Tenant’s obligations under this Lease) as if the Transferee had originally executed this Lease as the Tenant, but the Tenant shall not be released from its primary obligations under this Lease for the balance of the Term and the Tenant shall be (and shall cause, in addition to the Transferee, any Indemnifier to be) a party to such agreement, and the liability of the Tenant and the Transferee for the fulfilment of any obligations of the Tenant under this Lease, including any modifications agreed to by the parties, shall be joint and several;

24

(vi) unless the Transferee is a subtenant, upon the Transfer the Transferor will retain no rights under this Lease in respect of the Leased Premises or the obligations to be performed by the Landlord under this Lease, but notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Transferor will not be released from its continuing primary liability for the performance by the Tenant of all terms, covenants, obligations and agreements on the part of the Tenant under this Lease;

(vii) all amounts payable by the Tenant pursuant to this Lease up to the effective date of the Transfer shall be paid in full prior to the Landlord’s executing the document effecting the Transfer. Where any such amounts cannot be finally determined at that time, the Tenant shall deposit with the Landlord an amount reasonably estimated by the Landlord to cover such undetermined amounts, to be held by the Landlord without any liability for interest thereon until the estimated amounts become finally determined by the Landlord, at which time the appropriate adjustments shall be made;

(viii) notwithstanding the effective date of any permitted Transfer as between the Tenant and Transferee, all Rent for the month in which such effective date occurs shall be paid in advance by the Tenant so that the Landlord shall not be required to accept partial payment of Rent for such month from either the Tenant or any Transferee;

(ix) any Transfer not expressly permitted under this Lease shall be null and void and of no force or effect;

(x) if this Lease is disaffirmed, disclaimed or terminated by any trustee in bankruptcy of a Transferee, or if this Lease is otherwise terminated for default or is terminated, disclaimed, surrendered or repudiated pursuant to any statute or rule of law, then, in addition to and without limiting Tenant’s liability under this Lease, the original Tenant named in this Lease or any Transferee (except the bankrupt Transferee) will be considered, upon notice from the Landlord given within thirty (30) days after the surrender, repudiation, disaffirmation, disclaimer or termination, to have entered into a lease (the “Remainder Period Lease”) with the Landlord, on the same terms and conditions as are contained in this Lease, mutatis mutandis, except that the Term of the Remainder Period Lease shall commence on the date of the disaffirmation, disclaimer or termination and shall expire on the date this Lease would have expired had it not been so surrendered, repudiated, disaffirmed, disclaimed or terminated; and

(xi) if Basic Rent under any sublease exceeds the rate of Basic Rent hereunder, such excess Basic Rent shall be payable to the Landlord by the Tenant as Additional Rent.

(g) The Tenant shall not advertise the whole or any part of the Leased Premises or this Lease for the purposes of a Transfer and shall not print, publish, post, display or broadcast any notice or advertisement to that effect and shall not permit any broker or other Person to do any of the foregoing, unless the complete text and format of any such notice, advertisement, or offer is first approved in writing by the Landlord. Without in any way restricting or limiting the Landlord’s right to refuse any text or format on other grounds, any text or formal proposed by the Tenant shall not contain any reference to the rental rate of the Leased Premises or any other premises in the Building.

Section 9.02    Assignment by the Landlord

The Landlord shall be liable for the performance of its covenants and obligations pursuant to this Lease only during the period of its ownership of, or interest in, the Building or any part thereof, and in the event of any sale, lease or other disposition of the Building or any part thereof, or the assignment of this Lease or any interest of the Landlord hereunder, the Landlord shall thereupon and without further agreement be relieved of all liability with respect of such covenants and obligations, and the Tenant shall thereafter look solely to the Landlord’s successor-in-interest in and to this Lease. The Tenant shall immediately upon request, and without charge to the Landlord, attorn in writing to such successor-in-interest. The Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to sell, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Building or any interest of the Landlord in this Lease.

Any statement delivered under this Section 10.01 may be conclusively relied upon by any purchaser or prospective purchaser or any Mortgagee of the fee or the leasehold.

Section 10.02    Subordination and Attornment

(a) This Lease and all the rights of the Tenant hereunder are, and shall at all times be, subject and subordinate to any and all mortgages, trust deeds and the charge or lien resulting from, or any instrument of, financing, refinancing or collateral financing and any renewals or extensions thereof from time to time in existence against the Building or Lands or any part thereof. Upon request at any time and from time to time, the Tenant shall subordinate this Lease and all its right hereunder in such form as the Landlord requires to any and all mortgages, trust deeds or the charge or lien resulting from, or any instrument of, financing, refinancing or collateral financing and to all advances made or hereafter to be made on the security thereof (and shall, if applicable, postpone any short form of lease registered by the Tenant pursuant to Section 12.12 hereof), and, if requested, the Tenant shall attorn to the holder thereof and to the registered owners of the Building or Lands or any part thereof.

(b) The Tenant shall, if possession is taken under, or any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of, or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under, any mortgage, charge, lease or sale and leaseback transaction, deed of trust, or the lien resulting from any other method of financing, refinancing or collateral financing made by the Landlord or otherwise in existence against the Building or Lands or any part thereof, attorn to the mortgagee, chargee, lessee, trustee, other encumbrancer or the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale and recognize such mortgagee, chargee, lessee, trustee, other encumbrancer or the purchaser as the Landlord under this Lease.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Lease, the Landlord, in addition to any other rights or remedies it has pursuant to this Lease or at law, shall have the immediate right of re-entry upon the Leased Premises and it may repossess the Leased Premises and enjoy them as of its former estate, and the Tenant hereby agrees that Landlord may expel all Persons and remove all property from the Leased Premises and that such property may, at the Landlord’s option, be removed and (1) sold or disposed of by the Landlord by public auction or otherwise, and either in bulk or by individual item, all as the Landlord in its sole discretion may decide, and the Tenant agrees that the proceeds of such sale or disposition shall be applied by the Landlord in the same manner as set out in Section 11.02(b) hereof, in so far as applicable, or (2) stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost and for the account of the Tenant, all without service of notice by the Landlord to the Tenant thereof or resort by the Landlord to legal process and without the Landlord being considered guilty of trespass or becoming liable or responsible for any injury or any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby, or any claim for damages. The Tenant hereby irrevocably waives (i) the benefit of any present or future Laws, statutory or otherwise, which in any way may take away, limit or diminish the Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease or re-enter into possession of the Leased Premises in pursuance of its rights or remedies as set forth in this Lease, and (ii) any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future Laws, statutory or otherwise, in the event of the Tenant’s being evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of the Landlord’s obtaining possession of the Leased Premises by reason of the violation by the Tenant of any of the terms or conditions of this Lease or otherwise.

Section 11.02    Right to Relet

(a) If the Landlord elects to re-enter the Leased Premises as herein provided, or if it takes possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, it may either terminate this Lease (by leaving in or upon the Leased Premises or affixing to an entrance door to the Leased Premises a notice terminating this Lease) or it may from time to time without terminating this Lease, as agent for the Tenant or otherwise, make such Alterations and repairs as are necessary in order to relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term) and at such Rent and upon such other terms, covenants and conditions as the Landlord in its sole discretion considers advisable.

(b) Upon each such reletting all Rent received by the Landlord from such reletting shall be applied, first to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from the Tenant to the Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such reletting including brokerage fees and solicitor’s fees and of costs of such Alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by the Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as the same becomes due and payable hereunder. If such Rent received from such reletting during any month is less than that to be paid during that month by the Tenant hereunder, the Tenant shall pay any such deficiency, which shall be calculated and paid monthly in advance on or before the first day of each and every month.

(c) No such re-entry or taking possession of the Leased Premises by the Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to the Tenant.

(d) Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, the Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach.

(e) If the Landlord at any time terminates this Lease for any breach, in addition to any other remedies it may have, it may recover from the Tenant all damages it incurs by reason of such breach, including, without limitation, the cost of recovering the Leased Premises, solicitor’s fees (on a solicitor and client basis) and

28

including the worth at the time of such termination of the excess, if any, of the amount of Rent and charges equivalent to Rent required to be paid pursuant to this Lease for the unexpired remainder of the Term, had it not been terminated, over the then reasonable rental value of the Leased Premises for the remainder of the Term, plus the unamortized portion of any allowance, concession or inducement paid by the Landlord under the terms of this Lease or otherwise, all of which amounts shall be immediately due and payable by the Tenant to the Landlord.

(f) If such termination or re-entry takes place, the annual Rent for the purpose of calculating the Landlord’s damages will be considered to be equal to the aggregate of (i) the annual Basic Rent specified in this Lease; and (ii) all Additional Rent for the preceding twelve (12) month Lease Year.

(g) In any of the events referred to in this Section 11.02 hereof, in addition to any and all other rights, including the rights referred to in this Section and in Section 11.01 hereof, the full amount of the current month’s instalment of Basic Rent and Additional Rent including, without limitation, the aggregate of the monthly contributions towards Taxes, Utilities, insurance premiums, the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs, and any other payments required to be made monthly hereunder, together with the next three (3) months’ instalments of Basic Rent and the aggregate of such Additional Rent payments for the next three (3) months, all of which shall be deemed to be accruing due on a day-to-day basis, shall immediately become due and payable as accelerated Rent, and the Landlord may immediately distrain for the same, together with any Rent arrears then unpaid.

(h) The Landlord’s rights and remedies and the Tenant’s obligations under Sections 11.01 and 11.02 hereof shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

Section 11.03    Expenses

If legal action is brought for recovery of possession of the Leased Premises, for the recovery of Rent or any other amount due under this Lease, or because of the breach of any other terms, covenants or conditions herein contained on the part of the Tenant to be kept or performed, and a breach is established, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord as Additional Rent upon demand, all costs and expenses incurred therefor, including, without limitation, any professional, consultant and legal fees (on a solicitor and his client basis), unless a Court shall otherwise award.

Section 11.04    Removal of Chattels

The Tenant agrees that all goods, chattels and fixtures when moved into the Leased Premises shall not, except in the normal course of business, be removed from the Leased Premises until all Rent due or to become due during the Term, and all other amounts payable by the Tenant, are fully paid. In the case of removal by the Tenant of the goods and chattels of the Tenant from the Leased Premises, the Landlord may follow same for thirty (30) days in the same manner as is provided for in the Commercial Tenancies Act (Ontario) or any like legislation in any other province in Canada.

Section 11.05    Waiver of Exemption from Distress

The Tenant hereby waives and renounces the benefit of any present or future Laws purporting to limit or qualify the Landlord’s right to distrain. Notwithstanding any term or condition of this Lease or anything contained in any present or future Laws, none of the goods and chattels of the Tenant at any time during the continuance of the Term shall be exempt from levy by distress for Rent or other sums provided in this Lease to be paid by the Tenant as Rent in arrears, and upon any claim being made by the Landlord, this provision may be pleaded as an estoppel against the Tenant in any action brought to test the rights to the levying upon any such goods as are named as exempted in such legislation, the Tenant hereby waiving all and every benefit that it could or might have with regard thereto.

Section 11.06    Landlord May Cure Tenant’s Default of Perform Tenant’s Covenants

If the Tenant fails to pay, when due, any Rent or other charge required to be paid pursuant to this Lease, the Landlord, after giving five (5) days’ notice in writing to the Tenant, may, but shall not be obligated to, pay all or any part of the same. If the Tenant is in default in the performance of any of its covenants or obligations hereunder (other than the payment of Rent or other charge required to be paid pursuant to this Lease) the Landlord may from time to time after giving such notice as it considers sufficient (or without notice in the case of an emergency) having regard to the circumstances applicable, perform or cause to be performed any of such covenants or obligations, or any part thereof, and for such purpose may do such things as may be required, including, without limitation, entering upon the Leased Premises and doing such things as may be required upon or in respect of the Leased Premises or any part thereof as the Landlord reasonably considers requisite or necessary. All expenses incurred and expenditures made pursuant to this Section 11.06 plus a sum equal to fifteen percent (15%) thereof representing the Landlord’s overhead shall be paid by the Tenant as Additional Rent forthwith upon demand. The Landlord shall have no liability to the Tenant for any loss or damages resulting from any such action or entry by the Landlord upon the Leased Premises. The Tenant agrees that the Landlord’s exercise of its rights conferred under this Section 11.06 shall not be deemed to be a re-entry or a breach of any covenant for quiet enjoyment contained in this Lease nor an election on its part to terminate this Lease.

29

Section 11.07    Security Interest

Section 11.08    Charges Collectible as Rent

If the Tenant is in default in the payment of any amounts, monies or charges required to be paid by the Tenant pursuant to this Lease, they shall, if not paid when due, or when otherwise provided hereunder, be collectible as Rent in arrears together with the next monthly instalment of Basic Rent thereafter falling due hereunder, but nothing herein contained is deemed to suspend or delay the payment by the Tenant of any amount, money or charge at the time same becomes due and payable hereunder, or limit any other remedy of the Landlord. The Tenant agrees that the Landlord may, at its option, apply or allocate any sums received from or due to the Tenant against any amounts due and payable hereunder in such manner as the Landlord sees fit.

Section 11.09    Remedies Generally

(a) Mention of this Lease of any particular remedy of the Landlord in respect of the default by the Tenant does not preclude the Landlord from any other remedy in respect thereof, whether available at law or in equity or by statute or expressly provided for in this Lease. No remedy shall be exclusive or dependent upon any other remedy, and the Landlord may from time to time exercise any one or more of such remedies independently or in combination, such remedies being cumulative and not alternative.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 11.01 hereof, the Landlord shall thereupon have the right (“Such Right”), in addition to any other right or remedy the Landlord may have under this Lease, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, immediately to terminate the supply to the Leased Premises of any benefit or service (including, without limitation, elevator service or any other means of ingress to or egress from the Leased Premises) or any of the Utilities then being supplied by the Landlord to the Leased Premises. The exercise by the Landlord of Such Right shall not constitute, and shall be deemed not to constitute, a termination by the Landlord of this Lease or a breach of any covenant by the Landlord under this Lease, and the Landlord shall not be liable to the Tenant for any Claims or injury resulting from the exercise by the Landlord of Such Right.

(c) Whenever the Tenant seeks a remedy in order to enforce the observance or performance of one of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Lease on the part of the Landlord to be observed or performed, the Tenant’s only remedy shall be for such damages as the Tenant shall be able to prove in a court of competent jurisdiction that it has suffered as a result of a breach (if established) by the Landlord in the observance and performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Lease on the part of the Landlord to be observed or performed, except that where this Lease provides that the Landlord’s consent or approval is not to be unreasonably withheld, the Tenant’s sole remedy if the Landlord unreasonably withholds consent or approval, shall be an action for specific performance and the Landlord shall not be liable for any damages.

Section 11.10    Default Under Other Lease

An Event of Default by the Tenant under this Lease shall constitute a default of the same nature and amount by the Tenant under any other lease by the Tenant with the Landlord, and any default by the Tenant under any other lease by the Tenant with the Landlord shall constitute a default of the same nature and amount by the Tenant under this Lease and, accordingly, all Rent payable by the Tenant under this Lease shall also be added to and form part of the rent payable by the Tenant under any other lease by the Tenant with the Landlord, and all rent and other sums payable by the Tenant under any other lease by the Tenant with the Landlord shall be added to and form part of the Rent payable by the Tenant under this Lease.

Upon any attempt to repudiate this Lease by the Tenant pursuant to Section 65.2 of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, the Landlord shall be entitled to plead this covenant and agreement as an estoppel against the Tenant repudiating this Lease.

ARTICLE XII.        MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.01    Rules and Regulations

The Tenant will observe any rules and regulations from time to time adopted by the Landlord for the Building and the Lands (the “Rules and Regulations”), including but not limited to those set out in Schedule “C”, and all such Rules and Regulations are a part of this Lease. The Rules and Regulations may differentiate between different types of businesses, but the Rules and Regulations will be adopted and promulgated by the Landlord acting reasonably and in such manner as would a prudent landlord of a reasonably similar facility. The Landlord reserves the right to amend or supplement the Rules and Regulations applicable to the Leased Premises or the Building or any part thereof as the Landlord considers necessary for the safety, care, cleanliness and efficient operation of the Building and the Lands. Notice of the Rules and Regulations and amendments and supplements, if any, will be given to the Tenant and the Tenant will thereupon observe them provided that they do not contradict any terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. Any breach of any of the Rules and Regulations by the Tenant constitutes a breach under this Lease and, with respect thereto, the Landlord may avail itself of all remedies and rights generally available to the Landlord for a breach by the Tenant under this Lease. The Landlord is not responsible to the Tenant for any non-observance of a rule or regulation or of the terms, covenants and conditions of any other lease of the Rentable Area of the Building.

Section 12.02    Intent and Interpretation

(a) Net Lease

It is intended that this Lease is a completely carefree net lease to the Landlord, except as expressly set out in this Lease. The Landlord is not responsible during the Term for any costs, charges, expenses and outlays of any nature whatsoever arising from or relating to the Leased Premises, or the use and occupancy thereof. The Tenant will pay all charges, impositions, costs and expenses of every nature and kind, extraordinary as well as ordinary, foreseen as well as unforeseen, relating to the Leased Premises, the use and occupancy thereof, the contents thereof, and the business carried on therein, except as expressly set out in this Lease. For greater certainty, any amount and any obligation which is not expressly declared in this Lease to be the responsibility of the Landlord shall be the responsibility of the Tenant, to be paid or performed by or at the Tenant’s expense in accordance with the terms of this Lease.

(b) Obligations as Covenants and Severability

Each obligation or agreement of the Landlord or the Tenant expressed in this Lease, even if not expressed as a covenant, is considered to be a covenant for all purposes. If any provision of this Lease is or becomes unenforceable, it shall be considered separate and severable from the Lease and the remaining provisions shall remain in force and be binding upon the parties as though such provision had not been included.

(c) Entire Agreement and Amendment or Modification

This Lease and the Schedules, and Riders, if any, attached together with the Rules and Regulations set forth all covenants, promises, agreements, conditions or understandings, either oral or written, between the Landlord and the Tenant. No alteration or amendment to this Lease will be binding upon the Landlord or the Tenant unless in writing and signed by the Tenant and the Landlord.

(d) Headings

The headings introducing sections and articles in this Lease are inserted for convenience of reference only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or intent of such sections or articles.

(e) Extended Meanings

The words “hereof”, “herein”, “hereunder” and similar expressions used in any section or subsection of this Lease relate to the whole of this Lease and not to that section or subsection only, unless the context indicates otherwise. The use of the neuter singular pronoun to refer to the Landlord or the Tenant is deemed a proper reference even though the Landlord or the Tenant is an individual, a partnership, an association, a corporation or a group of two or more individuals, partnerships, associations or corporations. The necessary grammatical changes required to make the provisions of this Lease apply in the plural sense where there is more than one the Landlord or the Tenant and to either corporations, associations, partnerships or individuals, males or females, shall in all instances be assumed as though in each case fully expressed. Words, phrases or expressions which are defined herein in the plural have a corresponding meaning when used herein in the singular, and words, phrases or expressions which are defined herein in the singular have a corresponding meaning when used herein in the plural. Nothing in this Lease shall be construed as or shall constitute an express or implied grant by the Landlord to the Tenant of any form of right to light or air.

(f) Governing Law

31

This Lease will be construed in accordance with and governed by the Laws of the Province of Ontario.

(g) Time of the Essence

Time is of the essence of this Lease and of every part of it.

Section 12.03    Successors

All rights and liabilities herein granted to or imposed upon the respective parties hereto, extend to and bind the respective successors and assigns of each party hereto constituting the Landlord and the heirs, executors, administrators and permitted successors and assigns of the Tenant, as the case may be. No rights, however, shall enure to the benefit of any Transferee of the Tenant unless the Transfer to such Transferee is permitted under the terms of this Lease.

Section 12.04    Waiver

(a) The waiver by either party of any breach of any term, covenant or conditions herein contained is not deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by the Landlord is not deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by the Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, regardless of the Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent. No term, covenant or condition of this Lease is deemed to have been waived by a party unless such waiver is in writing to the other party.

(b) All rent to be paid by the Tenant to the Landlord hereunder shall be paid without any deduction, abatement, set-off or compensation whatsoever (except for Basic Rent to the extent it may be abated pursuant to Section 8.01), and the Tenant hereby waives the benefit of any statutory or other rights in respect of abatement, set off or compensation in its favour at the time hereof or at any future time.

Section 12.05    Accord and Satisfaction

(a) No payment by the Tenant or receipt by the Landlord of a lesser amount than any instalment or payment of Rent due under this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of the amount due, and no endorsement or statement on any cheque or any letter accompanying any cheque or payment of Rent shall be deemed an acknowledgement of full payment or an accord and satisfaction, and the Landlord may accept and cash such cheque or payment without prejudice to the Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such instalment or payment of Rent or pursue any other rights or remedies provided in this Lease or at law.

(b) No receipt of monies by the Landlord from the tenant after the termination of this Lease in any lawful manner shall reinstate, continue or extend the Term, or affect any notice previously given to the Tenant, or operate as a waiver of the right of the Landlord to enforce the payment of Rent then due or thereafter falling due, or operate as a waiver of the right of the Landlord, to recover possession of the Leased Premises by proper suit, action, proceedings or other remedy; it being agreed that, after the service of notice to terminate this Lease and the expiration of the time therein specified, and after the commencement of any suit, action, proceeding or other remedy, or after a final order or judgment for possession of the Leased Premises, the Landlord may demand, receive and collect any monies, due, or thereafter falling due without any manner affecting such notice, suit, action, proceeding, order or judgment; and any and all such monies so collected shall be deemed payments on account of the use and occupation of the Leased Premises or at the election of the Landlord on account of the Tenant’s liability hereunder.

Section 12.06    No Partnership or Agency

Nothing in the Lease shall create any relationship between the parties to this Lease other than that of Landlord and Tenant and it is acknowledged and agreed that the Landlord shall not in any way or for any purpose become a partner of the Tenant in the conduct of its business, or otherwise, or a joint venturer or a member of a joint enterprise with the Tenant, nor shall the relationship of principal and agent be created.

Section 12.07    Constitution of Tenant

If at any time during the Term (a) there is more than one tenant or more than one Person constituting the Tenant hereunder, then they shall each be liable jointly and severally for all the Tenant’s obligations hereunder and a default by one shall be deemed a default by all, or (b) the Tenant is a partnership, joint venture or co-tenancy (the “Tenant Partnership”), each Person who is presently a member of the Tenant Partnership, and each Person who becomes a member of any successor Tenant Partnership hereafter, shall be and continue to be liable jointly and severally for the full and complete performance of, and shall be and continue to be subject to, the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, whether or not such Person ceases to be a member of such Tenant Partnership or successor Tenant Partnership.

32

Section 12.08    Overholding—No Tacit Renewal

If the Tenant remains in possession of the Leased Premises after the end of the Term without having signed a new lease or an extension of term agreement, there is no tacit renewal of this Lease or the Term, notwithstanding any statutory provisions or legal presumptions to the contrary, and the Tenant will be deemed to be occupying the Leased Premises as a tenant from month-to-month at a monthly Basic Rent equal to twice the monthly amount of Basic Rent payable during the last month of the Term, and otherwise, upon the same terms, covenants and conditions as are set forth in this Lease (including the payment of Additional Rent) so far as they are applicable to a monthly tenancy.

Section 12.09    Limitation of Liability

Section 12.10    Force Majeure

Notwithstanding anything in this Lease, if either party is bona fide delayed or hindered in or prevented from the performance of any term, covenant or act required hereunder by reason of strikes or labour troubles; inability to procure materials or services; power failure; restrictive governmental Laws or regulations; riots; insurrection; sabotage; rebellion; war; act of God; or other reason whether of a like nature or not which is not the fault or within the reasonable control of the party affected, then the performance of that term, covenant or act is excused for the period of the delay and the time for performing that term, covenant or act will be extended accordingly. However, the provisions of this Section do not operate to excuse the Tenant from the prompt payment of Rent.

Section 12.11    Notices

Any notice, demand, request or other instrument required or permitted to be given under this Lease shall be in writing, and (a) if given by the Tenant to the Landlord shall be sufficiently given if delivered prepaid to the Landlord, c/o Emerald Property Services Inc., 0000 XXXXXXX XXXX, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxxxx, XX, X0X 0X0, and (b) if given by the Landlord to the Tenant shall be sufficiently given if delivered prepaid to the Tenant’s address at the Leased Premises, and every such notice is conclusively deemed to have been given upon the date it was so delivered, or, if mailed by registered mail, three (3) days (excluding Saturday, Sunday and statutory holidays) after the date of mailing. If there is more than one Tenant, any notice required or permitted by this Lease may be given by or to any one of them and has the same force and effect as if given by or to all of them. Either party may give written notice of any change of its address and thereafter the new address is deemed to be the address of that party for the giving of notices.

Section 12.12    Registration

The Tenant will not allow or cause this Lease to be registered. If either party intends to register a document for the purpose only of giving notice of this Lease or of any assignment or sublease of this Lease, then, upon request, both parties will join in the execution of a short form or notice of this Lease which will (a) be prepared by the Landlord or its solicitors at the expense of the requesting party, and (b) only describe the parties, the Leased Premises, the Term, the Commencement Date, and any options to renew the Term. On or before the expiry or earlier termination of this Lease, the Tenant shall, if the Tenant was the requesting party, at its expense, remove from the title to the Lands, any short form or notice of this Lease registered thereon.

Section 12.13    Accrual of Basic Rent and Additional Rent

Rent will be considered as annual and accruing from day-to-day based upon a three hundred and sixty-five (365) day calendar year and where it becomes necessary for any reason to calculate Rent for an irregular period of less than one (1) year, an appropriate apportionment and adjustment will be made.

Section 12.14    Compliance with the Planning Act

It is a condition of this Lease that the subdivision control provisions of the applicable legislation in force in the Province of Ontario from time to time, be complied with if they apply. If the provisions of such legislation do

33

apply, then until any necessary consent to this Lease is obtained, the Term (including any extensions thereof) and the Tenant’s rights granted by this Lease are deemed to extend for a period only of twenty-one (21) years less one (1) day from the Commencement Date.

Section 12.15    Quiet Enjoyment
