In consideration of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set out, the
Landlord hereby leases the Leased Premises to the Tenant, to have and to hold
during the Term upon the conditions contained in this Lease. The Tenant
covenants to pay Rent and to observe and perform all the covenants and provisos
to be observed and performed by the Tenant pursuant to this Lease. The parties
further acknowledge and agree that, in respect of certain areas comprising the
Leased Premises, and in addition to the rights of access otherwise afforded to
the Landlord under the provisions of this Lease, the Landlord reserves for its
employees, agents and contractors, upon reasonable notice to the Tenant (except
in the case of emergencies or urgent repairs and/or maintenance), a right of
passage through, above and below the Leased Premises for people, equipment,
machinery and apparatus for the purpose of allowing access to the Leased
Premises to facilitate the Landlord's performance of its obligations pursuant to
this Lease and to maintain, repair, clean, operate and respond to emergencies in

Tenant, its employees, contractors, agents, visitors and other persons
transacting business with it, in common with the Landlord and other occupants of
the Complex from time to time, the right to use the Shared Areas and Facilities
for their intended purpose.
2.3 Examination of Leased Premises
The Tenant acknowledges having examined the Complex and the Leased Premises and
accepts same in their present condition. The Landlord has commissioned a Phase
II environmental site assessment in respect of the Complex for completion prior
to the Commencement Date. The Tenant shall deliver to the party engaged to carry
out such environmental assessment a copy of all other environmental reports in
its possession relating to the Complex. The Landlord shall deliver to the Tenant
prior to the Commencement Date a copy of such report, together with a reliance
letter from the party preparing such reporting confirming that it may be relied
upon by the Tenant.
The Tenant confirms that, save as disclosed in the Acquisition Agreement, it has
not received notice of any non-compliance with any Applicable Laws,
Environmental Law or the mandatory recommendations of Factory Mutual Global in
relation to the Complex which have not or will not have been complied with prior
to the Commencement Date.
-7-
The Tenant agrees that there is no promise, representation or undertaking by or
binding upon the Landlord with respect to any environmental matter or any
alteration, remodelling or decoration of the Leased Premises or with respect to
the installation of equipment or fixtures in the Leased Premises, except as
expressly provided in this Lease.
2.4 Measurement of the Leased Premises.
Forthwith after the Date of Substantial Completion, the Landlord shall direct

Area of the Leased Premises and to deliver to both the Landlord and the Tenant a
certificate confirming the same, the cost of which shall be shared equally
between the parties.
2.5 Installation and Removal of Trade Fixtures
The Tenant may, with the prior approval of the Landlord, which approval not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed, install trade fixtures, including
Production Equipment, of a type usual for the Permitted Use, in good and
sufficient manner but not so as to damage or impair the structure or the
heating, ventilating, air-conditioning (if applicable), plumbing, electrical and
mechanical systems of the Leased Premises or the Complex. The Landlord shall
either give its approval or its reasons for denying the same within ten (10)
business days of the Tenant's request for approval. Provided the Landlord has
approved the installation of such trade fixtures, the Tenant shall arrange,
coordinate and supervise the performance and completion of all such work in a
diligent and good and workmanlike manner. The total cost of the work shall be
paid by the Tenant. The Tenant shall also forthwith reimburse the Landlord for
all costs, expenses and charges incurred by the Landlord with respect to such
work, including without limitation, building system modification or enhancement
costs or engineering review fees, if any.
On or before the Termination Date, the Tenant shall have the right, if not in
default beyond the applicable cure period, to remove, and shall remove if
required by the Landlord, all its trade fixtures, furniture and equipment,
making good at the Tenant's expense any damage caused by such removal, and the
Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Leased Premises to the Landlord in the
condition required under Section 7.1. The Tenant further agrees that all
Leasehold Improvements, whether by or for the benefit of the Tenant, shall
immediately upon affixation or installation become the property of the Landlord
and shall remain upon the Leased Premises, provided that at the end of the Term,
if so directed by the Landlord, the Tenant shall remove such of the Leasehold
Improvements as the Landlord shall have previously indicated require removal,
and any change, alteration, major repair, addition or improvement to the
Leasehold Improvements made without the consent of the Landlord being required,
and such Production Equipment, trade fixtures and ancillary telephone,
telegraphic, electric or other cabling or wiring installed in the Leased
Premises without the consent of the Landlord being required, as the Landlord
may, in its sole discretion, require (excluding, for the purpose of clarity, the
demising walls and other separation, security measures and partitioning work
carried out pursuant to section 2.4), and make good at the Tenant's expense any
damage caused by such removal. The Landlord may also elect to require the Tenant
to rebuild partitioning at the end of the Term in the Office Areas of the Leased
Premises to a partitioned area to open area ratio of 30:70. All property of the
Tenant remaining upon the Leased Premises after the termination of the tenancy
shall be deemed to have been abandoned by the Tenant in favour of the Landlord
and may be
-8-
disposed of by the Landlord at its discretion without prejudice to the rights of
the Landlord to claim damages from the Tenant for failure to remove the same.
Nothing herein prohibits the Tenant from claiming the cost of Leasehold
Improvements incurred by the Tenant as deductions for income tax purposes. For
the purpose of clarity, the Tenant acknowledges that in respect of the removal
of certain of its trade fixtures and Production Equipment, it shall be required
to repair as set out in Schedule "E".
2.6 Overholding by Tenant
If the Tenant remains in possession of the Leased Premises subsequent to the end
of the Term without the execution and delivery of a new lease, there shall be no
tacit renewal, and the Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the Leased
Premises as a tenant from month to month upon the same terms and conditions as
are set forth in this Lease insofar as the same are applicable to a month to
month tenancy, subject to Sections 58 and 59 of the Commercial Tenancies Act.
Such month to month tenancy may be terminated by either party at any time upon
ninety (90) days Notice.
ARTICLE 3
RENTAL
3.1 Basic Rent
The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord as rent for the Leased Premises the Basic
Rent in advance on the first day of each and every month from the Rent
Commencement Date to the Termination Date, and if the Rent Commencement Date or
the Termination Date are not the first and last days of a month respectively
then the Basic Rent for the first and last months of the Teen shall be
appropriately prorated.
The Basic Rent as set forth in section 1.1 is based in part on the Landlord's
estimated cost of the Phase V Mortgage Financing amortized over twenty-five (25)
years and calculated at an estimated interest rate of 8.5 percent for ten (10)
years, compounded semi-annually and payable monthly in arrears. If there is a
change (i) in the interest rate charged by the Landlord's lender from the
estimated rate of 8.5 percent, compounded semi-annually and payable monthly in
arrears, or (ii) in either the assumed twenty-five (25) year amortization period
or the ten (10) year term, the cost or benefit of the change shall be paid by or
credited to the Tenant in accordance with the Methodology and the Basic Rent
payable by the Tenant shall be adjusted accordingly for each month of the Term.
3.2 Payment of Additional Rent for Complex Operating Costs
The Tenant shall in addition to the Basic Rent, pay the Tenant's Share of
Complex Operating Costs to the Landlord as Additional Rent throughout the Term,
in advance on the first day of each and every month during the Term commencing
with the Rent Commencement Date, in equal and consequent monthly instalments on
account of the Tenant's Share of Complex Operating Costs based upon the
Landlord's estimate of Complex Operating Costs determined in accordance with
section 3.3.

Additionally, for the period from the Commencement Date to the day preceding the
Rent Commencement Date, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord the Tenant's Share
of Taxes and shall also be responsible for the cost of garbage and waste removal

construction of the Leased Premises during such period.
3.3 Annual Estimation of the Complex Operating Costs
Prior to the commencement of each Accounting Period, the Landlord shall estimate
the Complex Operating Costs for the next Accounting Period and in so doing shall
analyse, weight and if necessary, re-allocate the component costs of the Complex
Operating Costs to ensure an equitable and reasonable allocation of such costs
and expenses to the various uses and users in the Complex. Such estimates may be
adjusted and re-adjusted from time to time by the Landlord. The Tenant shall pay
to the Landlord monthly in advance on the first day of each and every month
during the Term, one twelfth (1/12) of the amount of the estimated annual
Complex Operating Costs, as adjusted or re-adjusted, as the case may.
3.4 Annual Adjustment of Basic Rent Based Upon the Actual Complex Operating
Costs
Within one hundred and eighty (180) days following the end of each Accounting
Period the Landlord shall compute the actual Complex Operating Costs for such
Accounting Period and the Tenant's Share of the same and shall submit a
statement to the Tenant disclosing in reasonable detail the various components
of the same. If the Complex Operating Costs paid by the Tenant in respect of
such Accounting Period are less than the actual Complex Operating Costs for such
Accounting Period, the Tenant shall pay the difference to the Landlord
forthwith. If the Complex Operating Costs comprising the Basic Rent paid by the
Tenant in respect of such Accounting Period are greater than the amount of
actual Complex Operating Costs for such Accounting Period, the difference shall
be applied in payment of other amounts then owing by the Tenant to the Landlord,
and the balance, if any, shall be repaid to the Tenant concurrent with the
delivery of such statement.
The Landlord shall at the Tenant's expense provide to the Tenant reasonable
supporting documentation for its calculation of the actual Complex Operating
Costs and the Tenant's Share of the same for the current or immediately
preceding Accounting Period on the written request of the Tenant.
3.5 Rent Covenant
The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord without demand, in lawful money of Canada,
at the times provided in this Lease, at the Landlord's Address or at such other
place as the Landlord may designate from time to time, the Basic Rent and
Additional Rent, without any deduction, set-off, counter claim or abatement
whatsoever. All amounts payable under this Lease, unless otherwise provided,
become due with the next instalment of Basic Rent. If the Tenant defaults in
payment of any sum due hereunder the Landlord shall have the same rights and
remedies upon default as if the sum were Rent in arrears.

3.6 Waiver of Set-Off
The Tenant hereby waives and renounces any and all existing and future claims,
offsets and compensation against any Basic Rent or Additional Rent, and agrees
to pay all Basic Rent and Additional Rent regardless of any claim, offset or
compensation which may be asserted by the Tenant or on its behalf. The Tenant
agrees that the Landlord may at its option apply all sums received from the
Tenant or due to the Tenant against amounts due or payable hereunder as the
Landlord determines notwithstanding any instructions or designations to the
contrary. No endorsement on any cheque or statement in any letter accompanying a
cheque shall be deemed an accord or satisfaction and the Landlord may accept any
payment without prejudice to any rights the Landlord may have at law or under
this Lease.
3.7 Interest on Overdue Rent
If the Tenant fails to pay within ten (10) days from when due any Basic Rent or
Additional Rent, the unpaid amount will bear interest from the due date to the
date of payment at the Stipulated Rate of Interest and such interest shall be
calculated and payable monthly.

allocated by the Landlord to the Tenant as the Tenant's Share of the such
components of the Complex Operating Costs for the Accounting Period in question,
the Landlord shall, within ninety (90) days thereof, adjust the Tenant's Share

11.5 Environment
The Tenant's storage, generation, use, handling, manufacture, processing,

written notification to the Landlord of any Hazardous Substance which the Tenant
intends to bring into the Complex, unless such Hazardous Substances are in use
in the Complex as at the Commencement Date, so as to enable the Landlord to
determine whether its existing Environmental Process Management and Hazardous
Substance Control systems are capable of accommodating such Hazardous Substance.
A list of the Hazardous Substances in use in the Complex as at the Commencement
Date shall be provided to the Landlord by the Tenant on the Commencement Date.
If the Tenant wishes to bring into the Complex any Hazardous Substances which

such Hazardous Substances into the Complex, and after such time as the Landlord

environmental engineering firm or environmental consultant, acceptable to the
Landlord, which acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld, to conduct a Phase

waste from the Leased Premises has been disposed,
-24-

acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld, and to summarise the results of
the Study in a report to the Tenant (the "Report"), which report the Tenant
shall disclose to the Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiry of
the Term. The Tenant shall undertake at its expense such remedial work, if any,
in respect of releases or discharges of Hazardous Substances to the Environment

part of the Landlord for the removal or remediation of such Hazardous Substances
or generally for Environmental Losses (the "Remedial Work") provided it is
established that the Hazardous Substance has been released or discharged by the
Tenant.
To the extent that the Remedial Work, or any portion thereof, is required to be
undertaken or completed after the expiry of the Term, the Landlord shall ensure
the Tenant is granted a free, unlimited and unrestricted right of access to the

any other occupant of the Complex likely to be caused by the Tenant's
undertaking the Remedial Work after the expiry of the Tenn.

liable for or responsible for nor liable to pay any costs with respect to: (i)
Environmental Losses arising from the migration during the Term of Hazardous
Substances from another property to the Lands or from the Lands to another
property (in each case except to the extent the release of such Hazardous
Substances was caused by Tenant); and the Landlord shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Tenant, its officers and directors, and those for whom it is at law
responsible, from any claim, liability or damage arising therefrom.

this Lease to any corporation which is an affiliate of the Tenant (such transfer

practicable (and in any event prior to the effective date of the Excepted
Transfer), the Tenant shall give the Landlord Notice of such Excepted Transfer
and deliver to the Landlord an
-25-
agreement wherein such assignee covenants to the Landlord to perform, observe

part of the Tenant to be performed, observed or kept, and further provided the
Tenant shall, notwithstanding such Excepted Transfer, remain responsible to the
Landlord for the performance of all terms, covenants, conditions and agreements
imposed upon the Tenant by this Lease. If subsequent to an Excepted Transfer,
such affiliate is no longer affiliated with the Tenant (unless the shares of
such company are listed and traded on any recognized public stock exchange or
the Tenant remains its largest single common shareholder), such event shall be
deemed to be an assignment of this Lease to which the provisions of sections
12.2 and 12.3 shall apply. For the purposes of this Section, the term
"affiliate" or "affiliated" shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the
Canada Business Corporations Act, as amended from time to time.
Provided that the Tenant may, without the consent of the Landlord, enter into a
short term licence of a portion of the Leased Premises to a third party whose
presence in the Leased Premises is required to assist in the Tenant's business
operations ( as for example for system design or consulting purposes). In such
event, the Tenant shall give the Landlord Notice of such short term licence and
ensure that such third party observes all requirements of this Lease relating to
the use and occupation of the Complex, and notwithstanding such licence, the
Tenant shall continue to be responsible for the due and timely performance in
full of all of its obligations under this Lease.

in part, without the Landlord's prior consent but on Notice to the Landlord,

in the form attached as Schedule "F" to this Lease. Notwithstanding such
sublease, the Tenant shall continue to be responsible for the due and timely
performance in full of all of its obligations under this Lease.
12.3 Request to Assign
If the Tenant requests the Landlord's consent to an assignment of this Lease,
the Tenant shall submit to the Landlord the name and address of the proposed

financial responsibility and standing (including financial statements) as the
Landlord may reasonably require.

entering into an assignment agreement in form and content satisfactory to the
Landlord, to perform, observe and keep each and every covenant, condition and
agreement in this Lease on the part of the Tenant to be performed, observed and
kept including the payment of Rent and all other sums and payments agreed to be
paid or payable under this Lease on the days and times and in the manner
specified. In no event shall any assignment to which the Landlord may have
consented release or relieve the Tenant from its obligations fully to perform
all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed.
-26-
12.5 Changes in Corporate Control
If the Tenant is a private corporation whose shares and those of its parent
company are not listed on a recognized public securities exchange, and if for
any reason the effective voting control of such corporation is transferred from
the person or persons having effective control of such corporation at the
Commencement Date (unless such transfer of control is to an affiliated company
of the Tenant), such transfer shall be deemed to be an assignment of this Lease
to which the provisions of sections 12.2 and 12.3 shall apply (it being agreed
and understood that if subsequent to such transfer, the transferee is no longer
affiliated with the Tenant, (unless the shares of such company are listed on a
recognized public securities exchange or the Tenant remains its largest single
common shareholder), such event shall be deemed to be an assignment of this
Lease to which the provisions of sections 12.2 and 12.3 shall apply. The Tenant
shall advise the Landlord in writing forthwith of any such change in effective
voting control and shall make available to the Landlord for inspection, copying
or both, all books and records of the Tenant and affiliated company which alone
or with other data show the person, persons or entity having effective voting
control of the Tenant and affiliated company. The Landlord may terminate this
Lease upon thirty (30) days' Notice if such books and records are not made
available as requested by the Landlord. For the purposes of this section, the
term "affiliate" or "affiliated" shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the
Canada Business Corporations Act, as amended from time to time.

as may be reasonably necessary in view of the nature of the default, the
Landlord may, at its option, either enter into and upon the said Leased Premises

thereupon charge its total reasonable costs and expenses, including legal fees,
incurred in respect thereof to the Tenant, who hereby covenants and agrees to
pay the same forthwith and further covenants that any and all such costs and
expenses incurred by the Landlord and unpaid by the Tenant shall be recoverable
by the Landlord as Additional Rent as if the same were and in the same manner as
Rent reserved and in arrears under the terms of this Lease.
13.2 Bankruptcy of Tenant and Other Events of Default

of the following cases: if any of the Tenant's goods and moveable effects and
chattels on the Leased Premises are seized or taken in execution or attachment
by any creditor of the Tenant, or if the Tenant shall make any assignment for
the
-27-
benefit of creditors, or if the Tenant makes any bulk sale other than a bulk
sale to an assignee or sublessee pursuant to an assignment or sublease consented
to under Article 12, or if the Tenant becomes bankrupt or insolvent or takes the
benefit of any statute now or hereafter in force for bankrupt or insolvent

other agreement other than pursuant to a permitted assignment. In each of the
above cases the Landlord may terminate this Lease by Notice to the Tenant and
may re-enter and take possession of the Leased Premises as though the Tenant or
any other occupant of the Leased Premises were holding over after the expiration
of the Term, and any Notices required to be given in such circumstances being
deemed to have been given and the notice period prescribed therein expired.
13.3 Excuse of Performance
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease, neither the Landlord nor the
Tenant shall be deemed to be in default with respect to the performance of any
of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, except the Tenant's
obligations to pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent, if such default is due to
Unavoidable Delay.
13.4 Cross - Default

Substantial Completion shall be installed and paid for by the Tenant
and the Tenant shall not arrange for the installation of such
services by the regional, metropolitan or municipal government in
such a way that the cost thereof shall be assessed as a local
improvement, impost, levy or charge to be included in Taxes levied
against the Complex or the Leased Premises. The Tenant agrees to
initially retain Xxxxx Contractors Limited as general contractor to
perform the Phase V Work. Tenant agrees that it will not change the
general contractor without the prior written consent of the
Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. The Landlord confirms that if it has not provided its
acceptance or rejection of a proposed replacement general contractor
within ten (10) business days of Notice from the Tenant, it shall be
deemed to have accepted such replacement general contractor.
(c) The Tenant shall ensure that its general contractor replacement
general contractor, as the case may be, takes out and keeps in force
contractor's general liability insurance, all risks property
insurance insuring physical loss or damage to the Phase V Work
during the course of construction, including without limitation,
damage due to flood or earthquakes, for the full replacement value
of the Phase V Work, and boiler and pressure vessel insurance issued
on a broad form basis in an amount not less than replacement value
(collectively, the "Contractor's Insurance"). The term of each
policy of insurance comprising the Contractor's Insurance shall be
from the date of the commencement of the Phase V Work until ten (10)
days after the Phase V Work has been completed. The Tenant shall
during the term of the Contractor's Insurance monitor the limit of
both the all risks property insurance and the boiler and pressure
insurance included in the Contractor's Insurance to include the cost
of changes in the Phase V Work. The
-33-
Tenant shall also ensure that the Landlord is added as a named
insured, as "Owner" both to the all risk property insurance and the
boiler and pressure vessel insurance included in the Contractor's
Insurance, and as an additional insured to the Contractor's general
liability policy. Prior to the Commencement Date, the Tenant shall
require its general contractor or replacement general contractor, as
the case may be, to provide the Landlord with proof that the
Contractor's Insurance is in place and in good standing and to
promptly provide the Landlord, on request, a certified true copy of
each insurance policy comprising the Contractor's Insurance. If the
general contractor or replacement general contractor, as the case
may be, fails to provide or maintain the Contractor's Insurance as
required by this subsection 18.1(c), the Landlord shall have the
right to provide and maintain such insurance, in which case the cost
thereof shall be payable by the Tenant to the Landlord on demand. In
the case of an insured loss, any deductible amount payable under the
Contractor's Insurance and paid or absorbed by the Landlord shall be
reimbursed by the Tenant forthwith on demand.
(d) The Tenant shall diligently proceed to obtain all necessary permits
and approvals and as soon as possible and following the obtaining
thereof shall proceed with the construction and completion of Phase
V Work.
(e) During the course of construction, the Landlord and its employees
and consultants shall have reasonable access to the Leased Premises
to inspect and examine all work being carried out, provided that
such right of inspection and examination shall not be exercised in a
manner which would interfere with the construction and completion of
the Phase V Work. If the Landlord gives the Tenant Notice that the
Phase V Work being carried out is deficient or is otherwise not in
compliance with the Plans and Specifications or the Site Plan, which
Notice shall contain particulars of the alleged deficiency or
non-compliance, the Tenant shall immediately provide a copy of such
Notice to the Tenant's Architect and shall immediately attempt to
cure such deficiency or non-compliance by enforcing its remedies as
appropriate in accordance with the provisions of the construction
contract with its general contractor or otherwise with the intention
that such alleged deficiency or non-compliance be rectified in the
shortest possible time. The Tenant's Architect shall promptly notify
the Landlord whether or to the extent he/she concurs with the
provisions of the Landlord's notice. Either the Landlord or Tenant
may refer the decision of the Tenant's Architect to arbitration.
(f) Within thirty (30) days of the Date of Substantial Completion, the
Tenant shall deliver to the Landlord (i) copies of all guarantees
and warranties provided by any contractors, subcontractors, or
material suppliers with respect to the Phase V Work, and (ii) a
certificate issued by the Tenant's Architect certifying that the
Phase V Work has been Completed in accordance with all Applicable
Laws and in accordance with the Site Plan and the Plans and
Specifications. The Tenant agrees to use its best efforts to
complete any incomplete work as noted in the Tenant's Architect's
certificate (or as determined by arbitration) promptly and in a good
and workmanlike manner and agrees to use its best efforts to cause
any
-34-
noted deficiencies or incomplete work to be remedied within a
reasonable period given the nature of the deficiency.
(g) Any dispute between Landlord and Tenant arising under any provisions
of this Article which cannot be resolved by good faith negotiations
shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with the
Arbitration Act, 1991 of Ontario, as amended or replaced from time
to time.

Lease, assuming any arbitration commenced with respect to any dispute between
the Landlord and the Tenant regarding the provisions of Article 19 shall have
been either completed and a decision rendered by the arbitrator or arbitrators,
as the case may be, in respect of the same, or such arbitration has been
abandoned by the consent of the parties, the Landlord grants to the Tenant an
option (the "Option") to purchase the Phase V Lands together with all
improvements thereon, including without limitation, the Leased Premises, from
the Landlord at the price and upon the terms and conditions more particularly
set out in this section 19.2.
19.2.1. The Option shall be exercised by Notice by the Tenant to the Landlord
that unless the Landlord pays the improvement allowance, or the amount
then remaining outstanding, as the case may be, within ten (10) days of
the Landlord's receipt of the Tenant's Notice (the "Cure Period"), the
Tenant shall be deemed to have exercised its Option. The Tenant's Notice
exercising the Option shall specify the date for the completion of the
purchase (the "Closing Date"), which date shall be not later than thirty

further force or effect.
19.2.2. The purchase price payable for the Phase V Lands shall be One Hundred
and Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($175,000) per acre of land comprising
the Phase V Lands plus the amount, if any, paid by the Landlord to the

-36-
allowance prior to the expiration of the Cure Period. The exact area of
the Phase V Lands shall be as set forth in a surveyor's certificate to
be delivered by the Landlord to the Tenant within twenty (20) days
following the expiration of the Cure Period. The purchase price shall be
paid and satisfied in full by certified cheque or bank draft on the
Closing Date. The purchase price shall be subject to adjustment for
pre-paid Rents but shall not otherwise be subject to adjustment.
19.2.3. The Landlord represents and warrants to the Tenant that:

of Canada within the meaning of the Income Act of Canada;
(b) it is a corporation dully incorporated and organized and
validly existing under the laws of the Province of Ontario;

and, in the event of the exercise of the Option by the Tenant,
the completion of the transaction contemplated in the Option
will be duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on
the part of the Landlord;
(d) the granting of the Option and the completion of the
transaction contemplated hereby will not result in the
violation of any indenture or other agreement, written or
oral, to which the Landlord may be a party or by which the
Landlord is bound; and
(e) on the Closing Date, the Phase V Lands shall be free and clear
of all encumbrances, except (i) encumbrances to be discharged
from the purchase price payable to the Landlord where the
Landlord has delivered to the Tenant a signed statement of the
encumbrancer as to the amount required to obtain a discharge
of the encumbrance on the Closing Date together with a
direction executed by the Landlord authorizing payment of that
amount from the purchase price directly to the encumbrancer
and the Landlord's solicitor's undertaking to obtain and
register a discharge of the encumbrance within a reasonable
time after the Closing Date, (ii) those encumbrances existing
when the Landlord obtained title to the Phase V Lands from the
Tenant, and (iii) any other encumbrances which have been
agreed to by the Tenant in writing or incurred by or on behalf
of the Tenant, or as a result of any act or omission of the
Tenant or those for whom the Tenant is in law responsible,
including without limitation, any municipal agreements or
easements required by or entered into as a result of the Phase
V Work.
The representations and warranties contained in this subsection
19.2.3 shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date and a
certificate to this effect will be delivered by the Landlord to
the Tenant on closing.
The Tenant acknowledges that except as set forth in this
subsection 19.2.3, the Option granted hereunder and any
purchase by the Tenant of the Phase V Lands are made without
representations and warranties by the Landlord and are made on
the completely "as is, where is" basis without recourse to the
Landlord.
-37-
19.2.4. The deed or transfer conveying the Phase V Lands shall be prepared at
the expense of the Tenant. The Tenant may direct that the Phase V Lands
be conveyed by the Landlord to a transferee other than the Tenant. If
requested by either the Landlord or the Tenant, the other party will
deliver on closing the statements contemplated by subsection 50(22) of
the Planning Act of Ontario.
The Option and any agreement of purchase and sale arising from its
exercise shall be subject to compliance with the subdivision control
provisions of the Planning Act of Ontario, as amended from time to time,
which compliance shall be at the sole expense of the Tenant.

section 3.1 of this Lease is required by the provisions of section 3.1 of this
Lease, the amount of that adjustment shall be calculated in accordance with the
methodology set out in this Schedule "E". If adjustments are required because of

section 2 below, then only the net effect of those adjustments shall be
considered for computing the effect of those adjustments on the amount of Basic
Rent payable by the Tenant.
1. Assumptions: The Basic Rent payable by the Tenant under section 3.1 is
based in part on the following assumptions:
(a) that the interest rate payable under the Phase V Mortgage Financing

(b) that the amortization period with respect to the Phase V Mortgage
Financing is a period of twenty-five (25) years; and
(c) that the term of the Phase V Mortgage Financing is a period of ten
(10) years.
2. Changes to Assumptions:
(a) if the interest rate payable under the Phase V Mortgage Financing is
more than 8.5%, then the Basic Rent payable by the Tenant under
section 3.1 shall be increased by $0.05 per square foot of the Area
of the Leased Premises for each five (5) basis point increase in the
amount of the interest rate payable under the Phase V Mortgage
Financing (and increments of less than five (5) basis points shall
be prorated accordingly);
(b) if the interest rate payable under the Phase V Mortgage Financing is
less than 8.5%, then the Basic Rent payable by the Tenant under
section 3.1 shall be decreased by $0.05 per square foot of the Area
of the Leased Premises for each five (5) basis point decrease in the
amount of the interest rate payable under the Phase V Mortgage
Financing (and decrements of less than five (5) basis points shall
be prorated accordingly); and
(c) if the amortization period with respect to the Phase V Mortgage
Financing is less than twenty-five (25) years, then the Basic Rent
payable by the Tenant under section 3.1 shall be increased by $0.24
per square foot of the Area of the Leased Premises for each one (1)
year decrease in the amortization period with respect to the Phase V
Mortgage Financing.

covenants and conditions or any of the Landlord's rights or remedies under
the Lease.
5. In consideration of the Landlord's consent to the Sublease, the Tenant and
Subtenant agree as follows:
(a) The Subtenant covenants that the Sublease shall be subject to and
subordinate to the Lease and further covenants and agrees that the
Subtenant will observe, comply with and perform all terms,
conditions and covenants in the Lease and to perform all obligations
of any kind whatsoever of the "Tenant" under the Lease
-51-
as and when the same are due to be performed by the Tenant pursuant
to the terms of the Lease and to be subject to all of the Landlord's
rights thereunder during the entire term of the Sublease, as though
the Subtenant was named "Tenant" under the Lease, to the extent that
such covenants, obligations, terms and conditions relate to that
portion of the Leased Premises sublet to the Subtenant under the
Sublease. The Subtenant further expressly acknowledges and agrees to
be subject to the prohibition in the Lease against subletting,
assigning, mortgaging or encumbering or permitting the occupation or
use of all or part of the Leased Premises by others.
(b) The Tenant and Subtenant each represent and warrant that they have
dealt with no broker, finder, agent or other person in connection
with the Sublease other than [_] (the "Broker"), and they agree to
indemnify and hold the Landlord harmless from and against any claims
or causes of action for a commission or other form of compensation
arising from the Sublease or the Lease, whether advanced by the
Broker or any other person or entity. The provisions of this
paragraph shall survive the termination of the Lease, the Sublease
and any renewal or extension of either or both of them.
(c) The Subtenant waives any rights it may have as under-lessee under
section 21 of the Commercial Tenancies Act, R.S.O. 1990 c. L.7, as
amended or replaced from time to time (the "Act"), or any like
rights under common law. For the purpose of clarity, the Subtenant
agrees that notwithstanding the Landlord has consented to the
Sublease, the Subtenant shall not claim or apply for an order
vesting the term of the Sublease, the Leased Premises, or any part
thereof, in the Subtenant, upon the Landlord re-entering the Leased
Premises or forfeiting the Lease.
(d) The Subtenant waives any rights it may have as under-tenant under
subsection 32(2) of the Act or any like rights under common law. For
the purpose of clarity, the Subtenant agrees that notwithstanding
the Landlord has consented to the Sublease, if the Landlord
distrains or threatens to distrain any goods or chattels situate on
the Sublet Premises, the Subtenant shall not seek to protect such
chattels from the Landlord's distress as contemplated by subsection
32 (2) of the Act.
(e) The Subtenant waives any rights it may have under subsection 39(2)
of the Act, or any like rights under common law. For the purpose of
clarity, the Subtenant agrees that notwithstanding the Landlord has
consented to the Sublease, if a receiving order in bankruptcy, or a
winding-up order has been made against the Tenant, the Subtenant
hereby agrees not to exercise its election as under-lessee to stand
in the same position with the Landlord as though the Subtenant were
a direct lessee of the Landlord.
6. The Tenant and Subtenant jointly and severally acknowledge that there are
no covenants, representations, warranties, agreements or conditions
expressed or implied, collateral or otherwise forming part of or in any
way affecting or relating to the Landlord's consent to the Sublease save
as expressly set out herein and that this consent agreement constitutes
-52-
the entire agreement between the Landlord and the Subtenant and may not be
modified except by subsequent agreement in writing and executed by the
Landlord, the Tenant and the Subtenant.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF the undersigned have executed this consent as of [_] .
