ADJUSTMENTS AND RELATED MATTERS
(a) | except as otherwise provided herein, all adjustments, both incoming and outgoing, with respect to the Properties, including taxes, utilities, rents, common area and operating expenses, deposits and interest thereon, tenant allowances, tenant recharges, fuel, licences, insurance, audit costs, payments under Approved Service Contracts and other items normally adjusted between a vendor and purchaser in the sale of similar properties shall be adjusted as of the Closing Date so that the Vendors will bear and pay all expenses and receive all income related to the Properties prior to the Closing Date and the Purchaser will bear and pay all expenses and receive all income related to the Properties from and including the Closing Date; | ||
(b) | the Vendors will remain liable to remit, in accordance with Part IX of the Excise Tax Act (Canada), any goods and services tax exigible on taxable supplies made by the Vendors and that became payable (as contemplated in Section 168 of the Excise Tax Act (Canada)) prior to the Closing Date; | ||
(c) | the Vendors shall not be credited with arrears of rent or other charges owed by Tenants as of the Closing Date, except that the Vendors shall be credited for arrears of rent and any other charges owed by any Tenant as of the Closing Date in respect of the then current month so long as such Tenant is not then in arrears for any previous month; the Purchaser and the Vendors each agree to cooperate with the other in respect of the collection of any then current arrears (including the full amount of any unpaid federal goods and services tax payable by the Tenants on such arrears). The Vendors shall provide the Purchaser with detailed information as to the determination of the amount of such arrears, and the Purchaser shall take reasonable steps in order to collect such arrears as soon as may be practicable. If and when the Purchaser collects any such arrears the Purchaser will remit to the Vendors that portion due to the Vendors in respect of the period prior to the dates of adjustment for the respective components of such arrears, less any reasonable third party collection costs. For greater certainty, the Vendors will be entitled to receive the full amount of goods and services tax paid on arrears by the Tenants if such goods and services tax became payable (as contemplated in Section 168 of the Excise Tax Act (Canada)) prior to the Closing |
-15-
Date. Payment of rents and recoveries shall be applied first to current rents and recoveries and the excess to the latest arrears. The Vendors shall be entitled to attempt to collect any such arrears the Purchaser has not collected within three (3) months after the Closing Date, provided that it shall not be entitled to terminate any Tenant’s lease or seize any of the Tenant’s property on the Tenant’s premises; | |||
(d) | although the Purchaser will be entitled, subject to the Vendors’ right under Section 6.1(c), to collect all rentals and other recoveries after the Closing Date whether applicable to periods prior to or after the Closing Date, the Purchaser and the Vendors agree to receive in trust and promptly remit to the other that portion of any rentals or recoveries received by it as would reasonably be expected to be credited to or by the other party hereunder on a subsequent adjustment, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1(c). Any rents and recharges received by the Vendors and designated by a Tenant or other occupant to be applied to a period ending after the date of adjustment for the subject matter of such arrears will be promptly paid or endorsed over to the Purchaser; and | ||
(e) | if any dispute arises with regard to the adjustments referred to in Article 6 either before or after the Closing Date, the matter in dispute will be referred in the first instance to the auditors of the Purchaser and the auditors of the Vendors for determination. If such auditors cannot agree on a determination of the matter in dispute within thirty (30) days following the reference to them, the matter in dispute will be referred to a single arbitrator under the Commercial Arbitration Act (British Columbia) or any successor legislation then in effect in British Columbia. The Vendors and Purchaser will make any references mentioned herein expeditiously and will share all arbitration costs equally. |

DOCUMENTS, INSPECTION AND CONFIDENTIALITY
(a) | The Vendors shall, within three (3) Business Days after the date of execution of this Agreement by both parties, deliver to the Purchaser or make available for the |
inspection of the Purchaser, as the case may be, as set out in Schedule E, all Project Documents or true and complete copies thereof (to the extent that the Vendors have not already provided copies of such material to the Purchaser). Thereafter, the Vendors shall forthwith deliver to the Purchaser all such further information respecting the Project Documents or the Properties that is reasonably requested by the Purchaser and is within the control or possession of the Vendors. |
(b) | The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Vendors shall not have any liability for any errors, omissions or inaccuracies in any of the Project Documents that are studies, reports or other documents prepared by third parties, except to the extent of any express representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Vendors contained in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.2. |
GENERAL COVENANTS
(a) | from and after the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date, maintain the Properties in their present condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and, subject to Article 5, do or cause to be done all necessary repairs and maintenance as required to effect same, take all reasonable care to protect and safeguard the Properties, and operate and otherwise deal with the Properties as a careful and prudent owner would do and in such a manner that the warranties and representations in Section 8.1 remain true and correct in all material respects; provided that the Vendors shall not be obliged to make capital repairs to the Properties except in case of emergency; | ||
(b) | maintain in full force and effect the existing insurance coverage in respect of the Properties until the Closing Date; | ||
(c) | observe and perform all of the landlord’s obligations under the Leases and diligently enforce all of the landlord’s rights and remedies thereunder; | ||
(d) | take or cause to be taken all proper steps and actions and corporate proceedings to enable QLT to vest a good and marketable title to the Purchased Assets in the Purchaser free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, defects in title, equities or claims of every nature and kind except for Permitted Encumbrances and to enable QLT to carry out the sale of the Purchased Assets and the Vendors to execute and deliver this Agreement as valid and binding obligations of the Vendors; | ||
(e) | maintain in all material respects present levels of consumable supplies and spare parts in the Building until the Closing Date; | ||
(f) | pay, on or before the due date, all municipal taxes, local improvement taxes, rates, levies and assessments of every nature or kind with respect to the Properties for the 2008 calendar year that become due and payable before the Closing Date; and | ||
(g) | as of the Closing Date, cancel or terminate at its expense all Service Contracts other than Approved Service Contracts. |
(a) | The Purchaser agrees that in the period following the date of execution of this Agreement by both parties and up to the date for satisfaction or waiver of the conditions referred to in Section 9.1(b), the Vendors may carry on their leasing program for the Lot F Property and the Building. The Vendors agree that they will not enter into any binding commitments with Tenants or prospective tenants for the Lot F Property and the Building or any material modification of any Lease during such period without first providing the Purchaser with a copy of any such proposed binding commitment or material modification. | ||
(b) | If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are completed, the Purchaser will assume all such commitments from and after the Closing Date and will fully perform the obligations of the Vendors pursuant to such commitments, including honouring obligations to provide any tenant inducements to the Tenants or prospective tenants of the Lot F Property and the Building, and being responsible for all commissions that are payable and all landlord’s work thereunder and the same will not be subject to adjustment on closing, except that, if the term of any new lease commences prior to the Closing Date, then the responsibility for any related tenant inducements (including landlord’s work) and commissions will be pro-rated between QLT and the Purchaser on the basis of the number of months of the initial term of such lease prior to the Closing Date (as for QLT) and the number of months of the initial term of such lease after the Closing Date (as for the Purchaser), and the same will be subject to adjustment on closing. | ||
(c) | The Vendors agree that after the conditions referred to in Section 9.1(b) are satisfied or waived by the Purchaser, the Vendors will not enter into any binding commitments with Tenants or prospective tenants for the Lot F Property or the Building or any material modification of any Lease without the Purchaser’s prior written approval, which approval may be withheld in the Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion. | ||
(d) | The Vendors agree that if they carry on the leasing program, they will do so in good faith in the ordinary course following the date of execution of this Agreement by both parties and will only consider commitments with tenants and prospective tenants which are consistent with market driven leasing arrangements in the Vancouver market. |
RISK
(a) | to terminate this Agreement, in which case the Deposit together with accrued interest will be paid to the Purchaser in accordance with Section 2.3(b) and neither the Vendors nor the Purchaser shall have any further obligation hereunder; or |
(b) | to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. |
ADJUSTMENTS AND RELATED MATTERS
(a) | except as otherwise provided herein, all adjustments, both incoming and outgoing, with respect to the Properties, including taxes, utilities, rents, common area and operating expenses, deposits and interest thereon, tenant allowances, tenant recharges, fuel, licences, insurance, audit costs, payments under Approved Service Contracts and other items normally adjusted between a vendor and purchaser in the sale of similar properties shall be adjusted as of the Closing Date so that QLT will bear and pay all expenses and receive all income related to the Properties prior to the Closing Date and the Purchaser will bear and pay all expenses and receive all income related to the Properties from and including the Closing Date; | ||
(b) | QLT will remain liable to remit, in accordance with Part IX of the Excise Tax Act (Canada), any goods and services tax exigible on taxable supplies made by QLT and that became payable (as contemplated in Section 168 of the Excise Tax Act (Canada)) prior to the Closing Date; | ||
(c) | QLT shall not be credited with arrears of rent or other charges owed by Tenants as of the Closing Date, except that QLT shall be credited for arrears of rent and any other charges owed by any Tenant as of the Closing Date in respect of the then current month so long as such Tenant is not then in arrears for any previous month; the Purchaser and QLT each agree to cooperate with the other in respect of the collection of any then current arrears (including the full amount of any unpaid federal goods and services tax payable by the Tenants on such arrears). |
QLT shall provide the Purchaser with detailed information as to the determination of the amount of such arrears, and the Purchaser shall take reasonable steps in order to collect such arrears as soon as may be practicable. If and when the Purchaser collects any such arrears the Purchaser will remit to QLT that portion due to QLT in respect of the period prior to the dates of adjustment for the respective components of such arrears, less any reasonable third party collection costs. For greater certainty, QLT will be entitled to receive the full amount of goods and services tax paid on arrears by the Tenants if such goods and services tax became payable (as contemplated in Section 168 of the Excise Tax Act (Canada)) prior to the Closing Date. Payment of rents and recoveries shall be applied first to current rents and recoveries and the excess to the latest arrears. QLT shall be entitled to attempt to collect any such arrears the Purchaser has not collected within three (3) months after the Closing Date, provided that it shall not be entitled to terminate any Tenant’s lease or seize any of the Tenant’s property on the Tenant’s premises; | |||
(d) | although the Purchaser will be entitled, subject to QLT’s right under Section 6.1(c), to collect all rentals and other recoveries after the Closing Date whether applicable to periods prior to or after the Closing Date, the Purchaser and QLT agree to receive in trust and promptly remit to the other that portion of any rentals or recoveries received by it as would reasonably be expected to be credited to or by the other party hereunder on a subsequent adjustment, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1(c). Any rents and recharges received by QLT and designated by a Tenant or other occupant to be applied to a period ending after the date of adjustment for the subject matter of such arrears will be promptly paid or endorsed over to the Purchaser; and | ||
(e) | if any dispute arises with regard to the adjustments referred to in Article 6 either before or after the Closing Date, the matter in dispute will be referred in the first instance to the auditors of the Purchaser and the auditors of QLT for determination. If such auditors cannot agree on a determination of the matter in dispute within thirty (30) days following the reference to them, the matter in dispute will be referred to a single arbitrator under the Commercial Arbitration Act (British Columbia) or any successor legislation then in effect in British Columbia. QLT and Purchaser will make any references mentioned herein expeditiously and will share all arbitration costs equally. |

QLT shall provide the Purchaser with detailed information as to the determination of the amount of such arrears, and the Purchaser shall take reasonable steps in order to collect such arrears as soon as may be practicable. If and when the Purchaser collects any such arrears the Purchaser will remit to QLT that portion due to QLT in respect of the period prior to the dates of adjustment for the respective components of such arrears, less any reasonable third party collection costs. For greater certainty, QLT will be entitled to receive the full amount of goods and services tax paid on arrears by the Tenants if such goods and services tax became payable (as contemplated in Section 168 of the Excise Tax Act (Canada)) prior to the Closing Date.

Any rents and recharges received by QLT and designated by a Tenant or other occupant to be applied to a period ending after the date of adjustment for the subject matter of such arrears will be promptly paid or endorsed over to the Purchaser; and | ||
(e) | if any dispute arises with regard to the adjustments referred to in Article 6 either before or after the Closing Date, the matter in dispute will be referred in the first instance to the auditors of the Purchaser and the auditors of QLT for determination.

QLT and Purchaser will make any references mentioned herein expeditiously and will share all arbitration costs equally. |

(b) | Subject to Section 11.8(c), but notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the parties agree that, if the Purchaser is required by applicable |
-34-
legislation to cause the amount set out in Section 2.2(c), as adjusted, to be paid by electronic or wire transfer of funds, then: |
(i) | the Purchaser will make all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such amount will be transferred to and received by the Vendors’ Solicitors on or before 3:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the Closing Date; and | ||
