(a) Insured Damage to Premises

If the damage or destruction is such so as to render the whole or any part of the Premises unusable or untenantable for the purpose of Tenant's use and occupancy thereof, the Landlord shall deliver to the Tenant within sixty (60) days following the occurrence of such damage or destruction the written opinion of the Landlord's architect, determined reasonably, as to whether or not the Premises is capable of being repaired within one hundred and eighty (180) days following the delivery of such opinion.

If this Lease is not terminated by the Landlord as provided for hereunder, then the Landlord, to the extent of the insurance proceeds which the Landlord receives, and to the extent that any Mortgagee entitled to be paid such insurance proceeds consents to the use of the same for repair of such damage or destruction, shall diligently proceed to repair any defects in the structure of the Building and exterior walls of the Building and such electrical, mechanical and drainage equipment and systems which form a part of the Building and the Landlord shall further repair such damage to the Premises (excluding all leasehold improvements).

If, in the opinion of the Landlord's architect, the Premises are not capable of being repaired as aforesaid within one hundred and eighty (180) days following the delivery of such opinion or, if immediately prior to the occurrence of such damage, the Tenant was not using substantially all of the Premises for the purposes permitted by this Lease or as otherwise required pursuant to this Lease or if the Tenant was, at the time of such damage, in breach of this Lease and had failed, within fifteen (15) days after notice of such default, to have commenced to remedy such default, the Landlord may, at its sole option, elect by written notice, given to the Tenant within ninety (90) days after such occurrence, to terminate this Lease, whereupon, the Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to the Landlord and Basic Rent and Additional Rent and all other payments for which the Tenant is liable pursuant hereto shall be apportioned to the effective date of such damage and destruction.

The respective obligations of the Landlord and the Tenant with respect to the repair of the Premises following any damage or destruction as aforesaid shall be performed in accordance with all applicable obligations to repair contained in this Lease and shall be performed with all reasonable speed. The Tenant acknowledges that the obligations of the Tenant to repair the Premises after such damage or destruction as aforesaid or otherwise shall be performed at the Tenant's sole cost without any contribution thereto by the Landlord whether or not any damage or destruction was caused by the Landlord's fault or negligence and whether or not the Landlord has at any time made any contribution to the cost of supply, installation or construction of any of the leasehold improvements in the Premises. In any event, within thirty (30) days after the Landlord has completed its repairs to the Premises as aforesaid, the Tenant shall complete its repairs to the Premises and shall fully fixture the premises and recommence the operation of the Tenant's business as permitted and required pursuant to the terms of this Lease.

(b) Uninsured Damage of the Leased Premises

If there is damage or destruction to the Premises, and the Premises are not reasonably capable of being repaired within one hundred and eighty (180) days following the delivery of the written opinion of the Landlord’s architect as aforesaid or which has been caused by an occurrence against which the Landlord is not insured or if the cost of repairs of which would be in excess of the extent to which insure proceeds are receivable pursuant to this Lease, then the Landlord may, at its option, to be exercised by written notice given to the Tenant within ninety (90) days after such occurrence, terminate this Lease, whereupon, the Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to the Landlord and Basic Rent and Additional Rent and all other payments for which the Tenant is liable pursuant to this Lease shall be apportioned to the effective date of such termination. If this Lease is not terminated as aforesaid, then the parties shall repair as hereinbefore provided and there shall be no abatement of any portion of the Basic Rent or Additional Rent unless the damage or destruction is Insured Damage.

- 24 -

If there is damage or destruction to the Building or the Premises and if this Lease is not terminated pursuant hereto, the Landlord, in performing its repairs to the Building or the Premises as required hereby shall not be obligated to repair or rebuild in accordance with the plans or specifications for the Building or the Premises as they existed prior to such damage or destruction and the Landlord may repair or rebuild the same in accordance with any plans and specifications chosen by the Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion provided that the Tenant's use and occupancy of and access to the Premises and the general overall quality of the Building are not materially detrimentally affected by any difference in plans, specifications or forms of the Premises or the Building.

The decision of the Landlord's architect as to the time within which the Building or the Premises can or cannot be repaired, the state of tenantability of the Premises and as to the date on which the Landlord's Work of repair is completed shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto.

11.2 Excess Net Proceeds – Casualty

If Landlord elects to cancel this Lease, Tenant will notify Landlord in writing within 15 days thereafter of Tenant’s intention either to refrain from such Transfer or to accept the cancellation of this Lease. If Tenant fails to advise Landlord within such 15 day period or if it advises Landlord that it accepts Landlord’s cancellation of this Lease, this Lease will be terminated upon the last day of the month that follows the 30^th day following the date that Landlord advised Tenant in writing of its decision to cancel this Lease and Tenant will, on such date, deliver up possession of the Premises in accordance with all of the provisions of this Lease relating to the surrender of the Premises at the expiration of the Term and all Rent shall be adjusted to the date of such termination. If Tenant advises Landlord that it intends to refrain from such Transfer, Landlord’s election to cancel this Lease will become null and void in such instance.

12.2 No Release.

The consent by Landlord to any Transfer shall not be construed as a waiver or release of Tenant from liability for the performance of all covenants and obligations to be performed by Tenant under this Lease, and Tenant shall remain liable therefor, nor shall the collection or acceptance of Rent from any assignee, subtenant or occupant constitute a waiver or release of Tenant from any of its obligations or liabilities under this Lease. Any consent given pursuant to this Article 12 shall not be construed as relieving Tenant from the obligation of obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting or other Transfer.

12.3 Equity Transfers.

(a) If Tenant is a partnership, a withdrawal or change, whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law or in one or more transactions, of partners which results in a change of control or transfer of a controlling interest in Tenant shall be deemed a voluntary assignment of this Lease and subject to the provisions of this Article 12. If Tenant is a corporation, any dissolution, merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant, or the sale, transfer or redemption of a controlling interest of the capital stock of Tenant in one or more transactions shall be deemed a voluntary assignment of this Lease and subject to the provisions of this Article 12.

- 26 -

(b) Neither this Lease nor any interest herein nor any estate created hereby shall pass by operation of law or otherwise to any trustee, custodian or receiver in bankruptcy of Tenant or any assignee under an assignment for the benefit of creditors of Tenant.

12.4 Financing.

Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion, execute or deliver any Leasehold Mortgage securing any indebtedness or other obligation of Tenant or any other Person.

12.5 Dealings by Landlord.

Landlord may sell, transfer, charge, encumber or otherwise deal with the Land or any portion thereof or any interest of Landlord therein, in every case without the consent of Tenant, and without restriction. To the extent that any purchaser or transferee from Landlord has become bound by the covenants and obligations of Landlord under this Lease, Landlord shall, without further written agreement, be freed and relieved of liability with respect to such covenants and obligations.

12.6 Subordination and Attornment.

Tenant acknowledges that this Lease is, at the option of any mortgagee or charge, subject and subordinate to any and all mortgages or charges (including deeds of trust and mortgage securing bonds, all indentures supplemental thereto or any other instruments of financing, refinancing or collateral financing) which may now or hereafter affect the Land or Improvements, or any part thereof, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof, provided the holder of such mortgage or charge enters into a non-disturbance agreement with the Tenant pursuant to which and so long as the Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease, the Tenant shall be entitled to remain undisturbed in possession of the Premises pursuant to this Lease, notwithstanding the exercise of any rights or remedies by the holder of the mortgage or charge. Tenant agrees to execute promptly any certificate or instrument in confirmation of such subordination and will, if requested by Landlord or by any such mortgagee or chargee, attorn to such mortgagee or chargee, and Tenant hereby constitutes Landlord, its agent and attorney for the purpose of executing any such certificate or instrument.

Article 13
END OF TERM

13.1 Surrender.

Subject to Section 4.2, upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease (other than pursuant to the exercise of a purchase option), Tenant shall peaceably leave and surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition in which the Premises were at the commencement of this Lease except for reasonable wear and tear and as repaired, rebuilt, restored, altered, replaced or added to as permitted or required by any provision of this Lease. The covenants set forth in this Section 13.1 shall survive the expiration or termination of the Term.

- 27 -

13.2 Holding Over.

If Tenant holds over after the end of the Term without a written agreement providing therefor, Tenant shall be deemed to be a tenant from month to month, at a monthly rent, payable in advance, equal to 200% of the Rent payable during the last year of the Term, and Tenant shall be bound by all of the other terms, covenants and agreements of this Lease as the same may apply to a month-to-month tenancy. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to give Tenant the right to hold over at any time, and Landlord may exercise any and all remedies at law or in equity to recover possession of the Premises, as well as any damages incurred by Landlord due to Tenant’s failure to vacate the Premises and deliver possession to Landlord as provided herein.

13.3 Survival of Obligations.

Upon the termination of this Lease:

(a) all claims, causes of action or other outstanding obligations remaining or being unfulfilled as at the date of termination;

(b) all of the provisions of this Lease relating to the obligations of any of the parties to account to or indemnify the other and to pay to the other any monies owing as at the date of termination in connection with this Lease; and

(b) If Tenant bona fide disputes the validity, correctness, or amount of any lien, Tenant may vacate, discharge or otherwise dispose of the lien and shall be entitled to defend against any claim for lien in proceedings in any court having jurisdiction provided that it: (i) prosecutes such defence with all due diligence; and (ii) posts such bond as may be required or pays into court the amount necessary to discharge the lien from title and such costs as the court may direct, and registers all documents necessary to have the lien or other claim vacated or provides such other security to protect the interest of Landlord in the Premises as Landlord considers sufficient.

- 28 -

(c) At any time when work is being performed or material supplied to the Premises for or on account of Tenant, Tenant shall hold back such funds for such time as is required by any law.

(d) Landlord and Tenant agree that any work done in the Premises during the Term by or on behalf of Tenant shall not be done and shall be deemed not to have been done at the request of Landlord. If any contractor with respect to any Work gives notice to Landlord pursuant to Section 19 of the Construction Lien Act (Ontario), Landlord shall have the right to refuse to assume responsibility.

14.2 Estoppel Certificates.

Tenant agrees that at any time and from time to time (but on not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior request by Landlord), it will execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord and such other Person(s) as may be reasonably requested, a certificate indicating any or all of the following: (a) the date on which the Term commenced and the date on which it is then scheduled to expire; (b) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that this Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and stating the date and nature of each modification); (c) the date, if any, through which Basic Rent has been paid; (d) that no Event of Default exists which has not been cured, except as to defaults stated in such certificate; (e) that the responding party has no existing defenses or set-offs to enforcement of this Lease, except as specifically stated in such certificate; and (f) such other matters as may be reasonably requested by the requesting party. Any such certificate may be relied upon by the requesting party and, by any prospective purchaser of Landlord’s reversionary interest in the Premises, or if Tenant is the requesting party, by any present or prospective holder of a Leasehold Mortgage or assignee of Tenant’s interest under this Lease.

Article 15
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

15.1 Defaults by Tenant.

Each of the following events will constitute an “Event of Default” under this Lease:

- 29 -

(b) Failure to Perform Other Obligations. Tenant breaches or fails to comply with any provision of this Lease applicable to Tenant other than a covenant to pay Rent, and such breach or noncompliance continues for a period of fifteen (15) days after notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; or, if such breach or noncompliance cannot reasonably be cured but is capable of cure within such fifteen (15) day period, Tenant does not commence to cure such breach or noncompliance within such fifteen (15) day period or does not thereafter pursue such cure in good faith to completion. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the terms of this Section 15.1(b) shall not apply with respect to any breach or noncompliance for which a cure period is specifically set forth in this Lease or for which an Event of Default is otherwise provided under this Article 15 or which cannot be cured.

(c) Execution and Attachment Against Tenant. Tenant’s interest under this Lease or in the Premises is taken upon execution or by other process of law directed against Tenant, or is subject to any attachment by any creditor or claimant against Tenant.

(d) Bankruptcy or Related Proceedings. Tenant files a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency, or for reorganization or arrangement under any bankruptcy or insolvency Laws, or voluntarily takes advantage of any such Laws by answer or otherwise, or dissolves or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or involuntary proceedings under any such Laws or for the dissolution of Tenant are instituted against Tenant, or a receiver or trustee is appointed for the Premises or for all or substantially all of Tenant’s property.

- 30 -

15.2 Landlord’s Remedies.

If any Event of Default occurs, the then current month’s Rent together with Rent for the three (3) months next ensuing shall immediately become due and payable and Landlord will have the right, at Landlord’s election, then or at any later time while such Event of Default is continuing, to exercise any one or more of the remedies described below. Exercise of any of such remedies will not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other remedy provided for in this Lease or otherwise available to Landlord at law or in equity:

(a) Cure by Landlord. Landlord may, at Landlord’s option but without obligation to do so, and without releasing Tenant from any obligations under this Lease, make any payment or take any action as Landlord deems necessary or desirable to cure any Event of Default in such manner and to such extent as Landlord deems necessary or desirable, provided that, prior to making any such payment or taking any such action, Landlord notifies Tenant of Landlord’s intention to do so and affords Tenant at least ten (10) days (or such shorter period as is reasonable under the circumstances) in which to make such payment or take such action, provided however, if a notice was provided by Landlord pursuant to Section 15.1(b) hereof no further notice need be given. Tenant will pay Landlord, upon demand, all advances and Costs of Landlord in connection with making any such payment or taking any such action, together with interest at the Default Rate from the date of payment of any such advances and Costs by Landlord.

(b) Termination of Lease and Damages. Landlord may terminate this Lease, effective at such time as may be specified by notice to Tenant, and demand (and, if such demand is refused, recover) possession of the Premises from Tenant. In such event, Landlord will be entitled to recover from Tenant, as damages for loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an aggregate sum equal to:

(i) all unpaid Basic Rent and other Rent for any period prior to the termination date of this Lease (including interest from the due date to the date of the award at the Default Rate); plus

(ii) the present value at the time of termination (calculated by discounting on a monthly basis at a discount rate equal to the bid yield rate quoted by the Bank of Canada in Government of Canada Bonds offered at the time of such calculation having a maturity closest to the date on which the Term would have expired but for such termination) of the amount, if any, by which (1) the aggregate of the Basic Rent and all other Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that would have accrued for the balance of the Term after termination, exceeds (2) the amount of such Basic Rent and other Rent which could reasonably be recovered less customary leasing commissions, reasonable tenant improvements, and other reasonable costs of leasing), if any, by reletting the Premises for the remainder of the Term at the then-current fair rental value; plus

(iii) interest on the amount described in (ii) above from the termination date to the date of the award at the Default Rate.

- 31 -

In lieu of damages calculated in the manner set forth in the preceding sentence, Landlord may, at its option, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, recover from Tenant, as damages for loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an aggregate sum equal to:

(A) all unpaid Basic Rent and other Rent for any period prior to the termination date of this Lease (including interest from the due date to the date of the award at the Default Rate); plus

(B) the aggregate of Basic Rent and all other Rent under this Lease that would have accrued for the balance of the Term after termination.

For purposes of calculating future Basic Rent under this Section 15.2(b), Basic Rent for the balance of the Term shall be deemed to equal the then-existing Basic Rent payable by Tenant.

(c) Repossession and Reletting. Landlord may re-enter and take possession of all or any part of the Premises, without additional demand or notice, and repossess the same and expel Tenant and any party claiming by, through or under Tenant, and remove the effects of both using such force for such purposes as may be necessary, without being liable for prosecution for such action or being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, and without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of Rent or right to bring any proceeding for breach of covenants or conditions. No such re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord will be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a notice of such intention is given to Tenant. No notice from Landlord or notice given under a forcible entry and detainer statute or similar Laws will constitute an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so states. Landlord reserves the right, following any re-entry or re-letting, to exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant such notice, in which event the Lease will terminate as specified in such notice. After recovering possession of the Premises, Landlord may, at its option, relet the Premises on commercially reasonable terms and conditions. Landlord may make such repairs, alterations or improvements a landlord considers appropriate to accomplish such re-letting, and Tenant will reimburse Landlord upon demand for all reasonable Costs and expenses, including reasonable solicitors’ fees, which Landlord may incur in connection with such re-letting. Landlord may collect and receive the rents for such re-letting but Landlord will in no way be responsible or liable for any inability to relet the Premises or to collect any rent due upon such re-letting. Regardless of Landlord’s recovery of possession of the Premises, so long as this Lease is not terminated, Tenant will continue to pay, on the dates specified in this Lease, the Basic Rent and other Rent which would be payable if such repossession had not occurred, less a credit for the net amounts, if any, actually received by Landlord through any re-letting of the Premises.

- 32 -

15.3 Bankruptcy Relief.

Nothing contained in this Lease shall limit or prejudice Landlord’s right to prove and obtain as liquidated damages in any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization or dissolution proceeding, an amount equal to the maximum allowable by any Laws governing such proceeding in effect at the time when such damages are to be proved, whether or not such amount be greater than, equal to or less than the amounts recoverable, either as damages or Rent, under this Lease.

Without limiting the foregoing, by reason of (a) Landlord’s interest in this Lease, (b) the importance to Landlord of Tenant continuing to carry on business in the Premises at all times in accordance with this Lease, and (c) Landlord’s entitlement to damages where this Lease is terminated by reason of an event of default, Landlord does and will constitute a separate class or category of creditor in any plan of arrangement or proposal submitted by or on behalf of Tenant under the Companies Creditors’ Arrangement Act or the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, despite any changes in circumstances of Tenant or its business.

15.4 Remedies Not Exclusive.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, in lieu of or in addition to any of the foregoing remedies and damages, Landlord may exercise any remedies and collect any damages available to it at law or in equity. If Landlord is unable to obtain full satisfaction pursuant to the exercise of any remedy, it may pursue any other remedy which it has hereunder or at law or in equity.

15.5 No Mitigation.

Landlord shall not be required to mitigate any of its damages hereunder. If any Law shall validly limit the amount of any damages provided for herein to an amount which is less than the amount agreed to herein, Landlord shall be entitled to the maximum amount available under such Law.

15.6 No Waiver.

No failure of Landlord (a) to insist at any time upon the strict performance of any provision of this Lease, or (b) to exercise any option, right, power or remedy contained in this Lease shall be construed as a waiver, modification or relinquishment thereof. A receipt by Landlord of any sum in satisfaction of any obligation with knowledge of the breach of any provision hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing signed by Landlord.

15.7 Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided herein, all remedies are cumulative and concurrent and no remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. Each remedy may be exercised at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and may be exercised from time to time. No remedy shall be exhausted by any exercise thereof.

- 33 -

15.8 Recovery of Enforcement Costs.

All Costs and expenses, including reasonable solicitors’ fees and disbursements, incurred by Landlord and/or Tenant in connection with the exercise of any permitted remedy for an Event of Default, or the enforcement of the provisions of this Lease, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred, shall be borne by Losing Party to such action and shall be paid by said Losing Party upon demand.

16.1 Right to Perform.

Landlord shall have the right at any time, after five (5) days’ notice to Tenant or without notice in case of an actual or apprehended emergency (or in case any fine, penalty, interest or Cost may otherwise be imposed or incurred), to make any payment including but not limited to Taxes, or perform any act required of Tenant under any provision of this Lease, and in exercising such right, to incur necessary or incidental Costs.

16.6 No Eviction.

The exercise of any right reserved to Landlord or its authorized representatives in Sections 16.3 or 16.4 shall not constitute an actual or constructive eviction, in whole or in part, or entitle Tenant to any abatement or diminution of Basic Rent or Additional Rent or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease or impose any liability on Landlord or its authorized representatives by reason of inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to or interruption of Tenant’s business or otherwise.

16.7 No Interference.

In any case in which Landlord or its authorized representatives enter the Premises for any of the purposes set forth in this Article 16, Tenant shall not interfere, directly or in any manner or form with, the conduct of any work being performed by or for Landlord. Tenant hereby releases Landlord from any damages or claims of damages arising from any loss of business or from any increase in operating costs of Tenant’s business, resulting directly or indirectly from the conduct of any such work, whether or not due to Landlord’s negligence.

16.8 Right to Re-Enter.

The Tenant hereby grants to the Landlord (upon reasonable notice to the Tenant, subject to the requirements of the City of Toronto (the “City”), the Regional Municipality of Toronto (the “Region”) or any governmental or utility authority or commission) and to the City and the Region the right at any time or times to enter upon the Land for the purpose of correcting any drainage problem or for the purpose of re-grading or rectifying the grading and installing such piping, catch basins and grates as may be reasonably necessary to the satisfaction of the City or the Region or the Commissioner of Public Works or in order to comply or effect compliance in any other manner with any subdivision agreement relating to the Land. The Landlord in exercising such right of re-entry shall not unreasonably interfere with the business of the Tenant or the Landlord.

TENANT’S WORK

[INTENTIONALLY DELETED]

EXHIBIT “C”

EXTENSION OPTION

So long as the Tenant is CUI-CANADA, INC. and is itself in occupation of the whole of the Premises, and there is no Event of Default with respect to the Tenant, then Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term of this Lease by notice in writing to Landlord at least nine (9) months and not earlier than twelve (12) months prior to the expiry of the Term for a further period of FIVE (5) years (“Extension Term”) on the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease save and except that:

(a) there shall be no further right to extend or renew this Lease after the expiry of the Extension Term;

(b) all Rent (including Basic Rent and all other amounts payable pursuant hereto) shall be payable commencing on the first day of such Extension Term and shall continue thereafter at all times throughout such Extension Term without any period during which any such Rent shall not be payable;

(c) Tenant shall accept the Premises in the then existing condition thereof and Landlord shall not be required to do any work or pay any allowance or give any inducements in respect thereof;

(d) the annual Basic Rent shall be the greater of: (i) the Basic Rent payable hereunder during the last year of the Term, and (ii) the Market Rent for the Premises for the Extension Term. For the purposes of this Exhibit “C”, “Market Rent” means the annual rental which could reasonably be obtained by Landlord for the Premises from a willing tenant or willing tenants renewing their lease(s) dealing at arm’s length with Landlord in the market prevailing for a term commencing on the date upon which the Extension Term is to commence, having regard to all relevant circumstances including the size and location of the Premises, the facilities afforded, the terms of the Lease (including the provision of Additional Rent) and the leasehold improvements therein, and with the assumption that the existing leasehold improvements are ideal for Tenant’s use as is, and with the further assumption that either the existing leasehold improvements are fully adequate for Tenant’s use of the Premises throughout the Extension Term or there remains sufficient time over which such improvements may be amortized, if further leasehold improvements are reasonably required to be made by Tenant to facilitate Tenant’s use of the Premises, or to comply with Tenant’s obligations hereunder, during the Extension Term, the cost of such improvements can be fully amortized by the end of the Extension Term, and disregarding any disrepair to the Premises or improvements therein resulting from Tenant’s failure to properly maintain and repair the same, or removal of any leasehold improvements and having regard also to the rental currently being obtained for premises similarly located in similar buildings in the vicinity of the Building, and in particular to any leases recently made by Landlord of comparable premises in the subdivision to those with whom Landlord is dealing at arm’s length and with the assumption that the use to be made of the Premises is the highest and best use which may legally be made of the Premises irrespective of and without affecting the provisions of this Lease respecting the use to be made of the Premises, or the interpretation thereof. If Landlord and Tenant fail to agree on the Market Rent for such Extension Term at least three (3) months prior to the commencement thereof, the Market Rent for such Extension Term shall be determined in the manner set out below.

Either Landlord or Tenant (the “Requesting Party”) shall be entitled to notify the other party hereto (the “Receiving Party”) of the name of an expert for the purpose of determining the Market Rent. Within fifteen (15) days after such notice from the Requesting Party, the Receiving Party shall notify the Requesting Party either approving the expert proposed by the Requesting Party or naming another expert for the purpose of determining the Market Rent. Should the Receiving Party fail to give notice to the Requesting Party within the said fifteen (15) day period, the expert named in the notice to the Requesting party shall perform the expert’s functions hereinafter set forth. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the selection of the expert within fifteen (15) days after such notice from the Receiving Party to the Requesting Party, then either party shall be entitled to apply to a court to appoint an expert in the same manner as an arbitrator may be appointed by a court under the Arbitrations Act of Ontario. The expert appointed, either by Landlord and/or Tenant or by a court, shall be qualified by education, experience and training to value real estate for rental purposes in the Province of Ontario and have been ordinarily engaged in the valuation of real property in the municipality in which the Building is located for at least the immediately preceding five (5) years. Within thirty (30) days after being appointed the expert shall make a determination of the Market Rent for the Extension Term, without receiving evidence from either Landlord or Tenant. The cost of such determination shall be borne by the Tenant. The determination of the expert as to the Market Rent shall be conclusive and binding upon Landlord and Tenant and not subject to appeal.

If the Basic Rent payable during the Extension Term has not been determined prior to the commencement of the Extension Term then, from the commencement date of such Extension Term until such determination has been made, Tenant shall make monthly payments on account of Basic Rent calculated at a rate equal to 110 % of the Basic Rent payable during the last year of the Term, and upon determination of the Basic Rent payable during the Extension Term, the appropriate adjustments shall be made between Landlord and Tenant, including interest on any over or under payments together with interest thereon at one (1%) percent per annum in excess of the Prime Rate, to the date of determination of the Basic Rent for the Extension Term.
