meanings ascribed to them:

or amounts incurred, whether by the Landlord or others on behalf of
the Landlord, in connection with the complete maintenance, operation,
management and repair of any of:
(i) the Premises and the Building of which the Premises form part;
(ii) the Common Inside Areas and Common Outside Areas and Facilities

which shall include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing
and without duplication, the cost of all repairs and replacements
required for such operation and maintenance; all costs in respect of
any heating, ventilating and air-conditioning equipment; all capital
expenditures made by the Landlord in an effort to promote energy
conservation as set out in paragraph 5(v) of this lease; the cost of
operating and maintaining elevators; the cost of providing hot and
cold water; depreciation (in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles from time to time) of all capital and
maintenance equipment which by its nature requires periodic
replacement including all heating, ventilating and air-conditioning
equipment; the cost of electricity and public utilities including
lighting not otherwise charged to tenants; the cost of snow, ice and
refuse clearance and removal; parking lot maintenance, repairs and
striping, landscape maintenance and window cleaning; the cost of
insuring the Building of which the Premises form part for the full
cost of reinstatement against loss or damage on an "all risks" basis
(including flood and earthquake), boiler and machinery insurance,
public liability insurance and loss of rental income insurance;
accounting costs incurred in connection with preparation of statements
and opinions for tenants and the reasonable cost of collecting
payments of all amounts payable by tenants; the cost of providing
janitor and security service and security devices for the Premises and
the Building such as are in keeping with maintaining the standard of a
prestige office building; the cost of all rental equipment and
building supplies used by the Landlord for all such operations and
maintenance or any other purpose; amounts paid on service contracts;
the amount of all salaries, wages and benefits paid to or on behalf of
persons engaged in cleaning, supervision, maintenance, operation,
management and repair; any business taxes which may be imposed on the
Landlord by reason of its operation of the Building or parts thereof;
any management fees or charges of managing agents, or the Landlord's
charges in lieu thereof if the Landlord undertakes management of the
Building (which charges shall be an amount per year equal to four
percent (4%) of the gross income, including all rent, additional rent
and parking and storage rent of the Building).
Total Maintenance Cost shall not include interest on the Landlord's
debt or capital retirement of debt or amounts directly chargeable to
capital account. In calculating Total Maintenance Cost, if less than
ninety-seven percent (97%) of the Building is occupied by tenants
(including the Tenant), then the amount of such Total Maintenance Cost
shall be deemed to be increased to an amount equal to the amount of
Total Maintenance Cost which would have been incurred had ninety-seven
percent (97%) of the Building been occupied by tenants throughout the
entire period for which Total Maintenance Cost is being calculated.
With respect to any such costs, expenses or amounts incurred on other
parts of the Complex, the Landlord shall have the right from time to
time to reasonably allocate and reallocate such costs, expenses and
amounts among the Building and the Phase II Lands and any and all
further phases or portions of the Complex built from time to time, and
the amount so allocated to the Building and the Phase II Lands shall
constitute part of Total Maintenance Cost.
(b) "PROPORTIONATE SHARE" means the fraction which has as its numerator
the Rentable Area (which includes, in the case of premises forming
part only of a floor of the Building, the Additional Area as
hereinafter defined) of the Premises and has as its denominator the
Total Rentable Area of the Building whether rented or not, subject
3
4
only to the adjustments which follow. The "Total Rentable Area of the
Building" shall be calculated as if the Building were entirely
occupied by tenants renting whole floors, and shall be the total of
the Rentable Areas of all premises leased or set aside from time to
time by the Landlord for leasing in the Building, but excluding
parking and storage areas and areas housing building systems, and
shall include the areas of all corridors, lobbies and other areas from
time to time set aside by the Landlord for common use on all floors of
the Building (excluding those common areas at the ground level of the
Building, such entrance lobbies and other areas from time to time
designated by the Landlord). The calculation of the Total Rentable
Area of the Building whether rented or not has been determined upon
completion of the Building and shall be adjusted from time to time to
give effect to any structural or functional change affecting same. The
calculation of the Rentable Area of the Premises shall be adjusted
from time to time to give effect to any change therein during the
Term. Provided that if any tenant, pursuant to its lease or otherwise,
performs at its own cost any service or aspect of those items the cost
of which would normally constitute a part of Total Maintenance Cost,
then the Landlord shall alter the above fraction for such services or
aspects as may be necessary to provide equitable distribution of Total
Maintenance Cost among the tenants provided with the said services.
(c) "RENTABLE AREA" means:
(i) for Premises which comprise the whole of a floor of the Building,
all areas within the outside walls on such floor. The Rentable
Area for whole floor Premises shall be computed by measuring to
the inside surfaces of the glass outer building walls, without
deduction for columns and projections necessary to the Building,
but shall not include stairs, elevator shafts or mechanical ducts
supplied by the Landlord for use in common with other tenants in
the Building;
(ii) for Premises which comprise part of a floor of a Building, all
areas occupied by the Tenant on such floor. The Rentable Area for
part floor Premises shall be computed by measuring from and to
whichever of the following form the boundaries of the Premises:
the inside surface of the glass outer building walls; the centre
of partitions which separate the Premises from adjoining rentable
or service areas; and the office side of corridors or other
permanent partitions; all without deduction for columns and
projections necessary to the Building; but shall not include
stairs, elevator shafts or mechanical ducts supplied by the
Landlord for use in common with other tenants in the Building.
In calculating the Rentable Area for part floor Premises, the
area of the Premises, as calculated in accordance with the
foregoing formula, shall be increased by an area (the "Additional
Area") equal to the fraction of the total area of the corridors
(measured to the corridor side of the corridors), elevator
lobbies, service elevator lobbies, toilets, air-conditioning
rooms, fan rooms, janitor's closets telephone and electrical
closets and other closets serving the Premises in common with
other premises on such floor, which fraction has its numerator
the Rentable Area of the Premises (calculated in accordance with
the foregoing formula but without addition of the Additional
Area), and has as its denominator the sum of all Rentable Areas
of all premises, (calculated in accordance with the foregoing
formula but without addition of the Additional Area), including
the Premises, on such floor. The common areas at the ground level
of the Building, such as entrance lobbies and other areas from
time to
4
5
time designated by the Landlord, shall be excluded from the
foregoing calculations.
The Landlord shall cause the Landlord's Architect to measure and
certify the Total Rentable Area of the Building and the Rentable
Area of the Premises, prior to, or as soon as reasonably possible
after, the commencement of the Term, and thereafter from time to
time, as may be appropriate, throughout the Term. Such
certificates issued by the Landlord's Architect shall be provided
to and be conclusive and binding upon the Tenant. Any necessary
adjustments to the rent, as a result of such certificates, shall
be confirmed in writing by the parties.
(d) "LANDLORD'S ARCHITECT" means a qualified architect, engineer or
Ontario Land Surveyor from time to rime retained, chosen or
employed by the Landlord.
(e) "COMMON OUTSIDE AREAS AND FACILITIES" means the walls, fences,
gutters, drains, parking areas (whether surface, underground or
podium, covered or uncovered), shipping and receiving areas,
driveways, walkways, flower beds, lawns and other areas situate
within the limits of the Phase II Lands, ramps and other common
outside areas in or about the Building as may from time to time be
designated by the Landlord for the use or benefit of customers
while visiting the Building or for the purpose of ingress to or
egress from the Premises, including, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, driveways, walkways, parking
facilities and landscaping outside the limits of the Phase II
Lands, but which are facilities serving the Building and shared
with the owners and occupants of the lands and premises adjoining
or contiguous to the Phase II Lands. Except as specifically
permitted herein, with respect to the parking areas, the Tenant,
its employees, invitees and licensees shall not be entitled to the
exclusive use of any parking space or spaces, but shall share and
use the same reasonably in common with other tenants of the
Building, their employees, invitees and licensees. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Landlord shall have the right (but shall not be
obligated) during the Term, to designate parts of the parking areas
for the exclusive use of the Tenant, its employees, invitees or
licensees or for the exclusive use of any other tenant or tenants
of the Building, their employees, invitees and licensees.
(f) "COMMON INSIDE AREAS" means the elevators, elevator shafts, stairs,
passages and washrooms, lobbies, corridors and entrances used in
common by tenants at ground level and all other levels of the
Building from time to time, and include any Links which from time
to time form part of the Complex.
(g) "COMPLEX" means the Building and the Phase II Lands as well as any
portion or portions or the whole of those lands described and
referred to in Schedule "C" annexed hereto which may from time to
time be designated by the Landlord as forming part of the Complex;

Complex unless and until there has been constructed to the point of
substantial completion thereon either an office building or hotel
with an all-weather enclosed pedestrian access from such office
building or hotel to the Building (the "Link" or "Links") or
all-weather enclosed access to the Building by a combination of
Links and other office building or buildings and/or hotel.
(h) "LINKS" means the Links as described and defined in the preceding
sub-paragraph (g).

otherwise, charged upon the Phase II Lands or upon any buildings,
erections or installations thereon or therein, or charged upon
the Landlord on account thereof, including municipal taxes or
local improvements or similar charges, and school taxes (whether
for public or separate schools) but does not include business
taxes or business occupancy taxes or other taxes that may
hereafter be levied upon or in respect of the Tenant's business
at the Premises, whether or not the same are collectible by the
Landlord or a charge on the said lands. Where parking, shipping
and receiving, landscaped and other common areas forming part of
the Phase II Lands are assessed separately from the Premises and
other leasehold space on the said lands, "Municipal Taxes" shall
also include taxes in the year in question levied or charged upon
or attributable to the assessed value of the same and any
business taxes or tax in lieu thereof now or hereafter levied
upon the Landlord in respect of such parking, shipping and
receiving, landscaped or other common areas. With respect to any
such Municipal Taxes and similar taxes on other parts of the
Complex, the Landlord shall have the right from time to time to
reasonably allocate and reallocate such Municipal Taxes and
similar taxes among the Building and the Phase II Lands and any
and all phases or portions of the Complex built from time to
time, and the amount so allocated to the Building and the Phase
II Lands shall constitute Municipal Taxes.
(ii) "YEAR" shall mean the calendar year.
(b) The Tenant covenants to pay the Tenant's Proportionate Share of
Municipal Taxes for each Year to the Landlord as additional rent
within ten (10) business days following receipt by the Tenant of
written notice of the amount owing notwithstanding that the year in
question or the Term of this lease may have ended. If in any Year
after initial determination of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of
Municipal Taxes for that Year by
14
15
the Landlord, such amount is increased by reason of the issue of
supplemental assessment notices or taxes or both, or other variation
in the basis upon which the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal
Taxes is calculated, the Landlord shall, as often as necessary,
recalculate the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal Taxes for
that Year and if the amount of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of
Municipal Taxes for that year is more than originally calculated, the
Tenant covenants to pay such excess (together with the original
calculated amount of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal
Taxes for that year if not already paid) as additional rent as
aforesaid.
(c) The Landlord shall be entitled in any Year, upon at least ten (10)
business days' notice to the Tenant to require the Tenant to pay
monthly, during the first nine (9) months of each Year, on the date
for payment of monthly rental instalments and in addition thereto, as
additional rent, an amount equal to 1/9th of the amount estimated by
the Landlord to be the amount of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of
Municipal Taxes for such year. The Landlord shall be entitled
subsequently during the Year upon at least ten (10) business days'
notice to the Tenant to revise its estimate of the amount of the
Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal Taxes and the said monthly
payment accordingly. All amounts received under this provision in any
Year on account of the estimated amount of the Tenant's Proportionate
Share of Municipal Taxes shall be applied in reduction of the actual
amount of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal Taxes for such
Year. If the said amounts received are less than the actual amount of
the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal Taxes, the Tenant shall
pay the deficiency to the Landlord as additional rent within ten (10)
business days following receipt by the Tenant of notice of the amount
of the deficiency. If the said amounts received are greater than the
actual amount of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal Taxes,
the Landlord shall refund the excess to the Tenant within a reasonable
time after the end of the Year in respect of which the payments were
made.
(d) If the Term shall commence, end or be determined on any day other than
the first or last days of a Year, the Tenant shall be liable only for
a portion of the amount of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of
Municipal Taxes for such Year, determined on a per diem basis by
dividing the amount of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal
Taxes for such Year by 365 and multiplying the quotient so obtained by
the number of days in the Term falling in the Year in question. If,
however, during the Year in question, more than one assessed value or
more than one mill rate shall have been attributed to the Premises,
the Year shall be divided into periods in each of which one assessed
value and one mill rate are applicable, and the Landlord shall
determine the portion of the amount of the Tenant's Proportionate
Share of Municipal Taxes for such Year to be attributed to each such
period which shall be a fraction (in the ratio that the number of days
in the period bears to the number of days in the Year) of the amount
of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal Taxes which would
have occurred had this lease and the assessed value and mill rate for
the period been in effect for the entire Year. Where a period falls
entirely within the Term, the portion of the amount of the Tenant's
Proportionate Share of Municipal Taxes so attributed thereto shall be
borne entirely by the Tenant; where a period falls entirely outside
the Term, the portion of the amount of the Tenant's Proportionate
Share of Municipal Taxes so attributed thereto shall be borne entirely
by the Landlord; where a period falls partly within and partly outside
the Term, the portion of the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Municipal
Taxes so attributed thereto shall be apportioned between the Landlord
and the Tenant on a per diem basis.

amendment or amendments thereto, the Tenant waiving as the Tenant hereby
does, every benefit that could or might have accrued to the Tenant under
and by virtue of the said section or sections of the said Act or any

damages and to pursue its other remedies at law and hereunder.
20. NON-WAIVER - Any condoning, waiving, excusing or overlooking by the
Landlord of any default, breach or non-observance by the Tenant at any time
or times of or in respect of any covenant, proviso or condition herein
contained shall not operate as a waiver of the Landlord's rights hereunder

additional rent and recoverable by the Landlord in the same manner as if
