The Landlord will provide the Tenant with its goods and services tax registration number.

If the Tenant has overpaid such Tax Cost, the Landlord will refund any excess paid, but if any balance remains unpaid, the Landlord will fix monthly instalments for the then remaining balance of such fiscal period or portion of it such that, after giving credit for instalments paid by the Tenant under this clause 8.4 in respect of such calendar year, the entire Tenant’s Share of Tax Cost will be fully payable prior to the time the Landlord is obliged to pay the Taxes in respect of which the Tenant’s Share of Tax Cost is payable. If for any reason the Tax Cost is not finally determined within such fiscal period or portion of it, the parties will make the appropriate readjustment when such Tax Cost becomes finally determined. The Landlord and the Tenant acknowledge that Taxes in respect of the Park may be payable during the course of a year as prepayment for the Taxes accruing due in respect of such year, and if the Term ends during a year, then the appropriate adjustment will be made under clause 4.3. Any report of the Landlord’s auditor as to the Tax Cost will be conclusive as to the amount for any period to which such report relates.

L a n d l o r d I n i t i a l s _ _ _ _ _ _ _

1003357-4

115526615:v9

an assignment or subletting, it will be reasonable for the Landlord to withhold its consent in the following instances:

Time is of the essence of this Lease.

17.4    Area Determination

The Rentable Area of any premises (including the Premises) or the Building or the Park will be determined by the Landlord’s architect or surveyor from time to time appointed for the purpose.

17.7    Waiver

No condoning, excusing, or overlooking by the Landlord or Tenant of any default, breach, or non-observance by the Tenant or the Landlord at any time or times in respect of any covenant, proviso, or condition in this Lease will operate as a waiver of the Landlord’s or the Tenant’s rights under this Lease in respect of any continuing or subsequent default, breach, or non-observance or so as to defeat or affect in any way the rights of the Landlord or the Tenant in this Lease in respect of any such continuing or subsequent default or breach, no acceptance of rent by the Landlord subsequent to a default by the Tenant (whether or not the Landlord knows of the default) will operate as a waiver by the Landlord, and no waiver will be inferred from or implied by anything done or omitted by the Landlord or the Tenant except only express waiver in writing.

17.8    Governing Law and Severability

This Lease will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws in force in the province of British Columbia.

L a n d l o r d I n i t i a l s _ _ _ _ _ _ _

1003357-4

115526615:v9

provisions of this Lease and the schedules hereto, the acceptance of possession of the Premises will be conclusive evidence as against the Tenant that at the Commencement Date of the Term the Landlord had duly completed all work required to be completed by the Landlord prior to the Commencement Date of the Term and the Premises were in good order and satisfactory condition for the commencement of the work and business of the Tenant, subject only to latent defects not discoverable upon reasonable inspection.

17.11    Deposit

The Tenant shall pay, upon the execution of this Lease, the sum stated in subclause 1.1(j) (the “Deposit”), a portion of which shall be applied to the first months’ payment of Base Rent due hereunder, and the balance remaining thereafter shall be held as security for the faithful performance of, and compliance with, all of the terms, covenants and conditions in this Lease. If the Tenant fails to comply with its obligations herein or shall surrender the Premises without the written consent of the Landlord, or is dispossessed therefrom or abandons the Premises prior to the expiration of the Term, then, and in that event, the balance of the Deposit shall belong to the Landlord as fixed, liquidated and agreed damages, in payment of such disbursements, costs and expenses which it may undergo for the purpose of regaining possession of the Premises and without limiting any other rights, remedies or damages of the Landlord. The Landlord shall apply the balance of the Deposit provided for herein against the total damages resulting from a breach of the terms of this Lease by the Tenant. If, however, all material terms, covenants and conditions are fully complied with by the Tenant, then, and in that event, the balance of the Deposit shall be returned to the Tenant on surrender of the Premises in a good state and condition as required by this Lease.

17.12    Expropriation

If at any time during the Term the interest of the Tenant under this Lease or the whole or any part of either the Premises or any other part of the Building is taken by any lawful power or authority by the right of expropriation, the Landlord may at its option give notice to the Tenant terminating this Lease on the date when the Tenant or Landlord is required to yield up possession to the expropriating authority. Upon such termination, or upon termination by operation of law, as the case may be, the Tenant will immediately surrender the Premises and all its interest in them, Rent will xxxxx and be apportioned to the date of termination, the Tenant will promptly pay to the Landlord the apportioned Rent and all other amounts that may be due to the Landlord up to the date of termination, and clause 15.8 will apply.

If an award of compensation made to the Landlord specifically includes an award for the Tenant, the Landlord will account for it to the Tenant. In this clause the word

18.    SPECIAL PROVISIONS

18.1    Option to Extend

The Landlord covenants with the Tenant that if:

(a)    the Tenant gives notice to the Landlord that the Tenant wishes to obtain an extension of this Lease, such notice to be given not later than nine months, before the expiry of the initial term granted in this Lease;

(b)    at the time of giving such notice the Tenant is not in breach of any covenant or condition contained in this Lease; and

(c)    the Tenant has duly and regularly throughout the initial term observed and performed the covenants and conditions in this Lease;

then the Landlord will grant to the Tenant at the Tenant’s expense an extension lease of the Premises for a further term of that number of years specified in subclause 1.1(i) upon the same terms and conditions in this Lease, except this covenant to extend and except the Annual Base Rent that will be the greater of the Current Market Rent for the Premises with its Leasehold Improvements (having regard to the duration of the extension term) or the sum of the Annual Base Rent payable for the last year of the initial term, and except any rent-free periods, tenant allowances, or other inducements. If the Landlord and the Tenant are unable at least three months before the expiry of the initial term to agree upon such Current Market Rent, the determination of such Current Market Rent will be referred to a single arbitrator if the parties agree upon one, otherwise to a board of three arbitrators, one to be appointed by each of the Landlord and the Tenant and a third arbitrator to be appointed in writing by the first two-named arbitrators; if the Landlord or the Tenant refuses or neglects to appoint an arbitrator within seven clear days after the other has served a written notice upon the party so refusing or neglecting to make such appointment, the arbitrator first appointed will, at the request of the party appointing the arbitrator, proceed to determine such rent as if he or she were a single arbitrator appointed by both the Landlord and Tenant for the purpose. If two arbitrators are so appointed within the time prescribed and they do not agree upon the appointment of the third arbitrator within a period of seven days from the date of appointment of the second arbitrator, then upon the application of either the Landlord or the Tenant, the third arbitrator will be appointed by a Judge of the Supreme Court in accordance with the procedure set out in the Arbitration Act, R.S.B.C.

The determination made by the arbitrators or the majority of them, or by the single arbitrator, as the case may be, will be final and binding upon the Landlord and the Tenant and their respective successors and assigns. The cost of the arbitration and the arbitrators will be borne equally by the Landlord and the Tenant, unless otherwise ordered by the arbitrator. The provisions of this clause will be deemed to be a submission to arbitration within the provisions of the Arbitration Act
