		If by law, regulation or otherwise, business taxes or other similar rates and taxes or taxes upon Tenant's fixtures, equipment, machinery or upon Improvements are made payable by landlords or proprietors, or if the mode of collecting such taxes and/or rates be so altered as to make Landlord liable therefor instead of Tenant, Tenant shall repay to Landlord prior to the due date but, in any event within 7 days after demand upon Tenant, the amount of the charge imposed on Landlord as a result of such change, and shall save Landlord harmless from any cost or expense in respect thereof.

		The amount of the Real Estate Taxes which shall be deemed to have been levied or imposed with respect to the Building and the Land shall be such amount as the legal authority imposing Real Estate Taxes shall have attributed to the Building and the Land respectively, or, in the absence of such attribution, or, if such legal authority shall include other immovables other than the Building and the Land in imposing such Real Estate Taxes, such amount as Landlord in the exercise of reasonable judgment shall establish.

	(2)	If, in any year, the taxing authority has not fully assessed and fully taxed the Building and Land as entirely completed and entirely occupied by tenants having no special exemptions with respect to Real Estate Taxes, then taxes shall be adjusted and determined by including therein such additional amount as would have formed part of Real Estate Taxes if the Building and Land had been fully assessed and fully taxed as entirely completed and entirely occupied by tenants having no special exemptions.

	(3)	Real Estate Taxes shall be determined without reference to, or deduction for, any abatement, concession or reduction of taxes provided or granted as an incentive to builders or developers and Real Estate Taxes shall be adjusted and determined by including therein the amount of any such concession, abatement or reduction.

Such monthly amounts when paid to Landlord shall be available (without interest) as a credit against Tenant's obligations to Landlord under this Article 5.3.

	Any amounts payable by Tenant hereunder shall be adjusted on a pro rata basis to reflect the actual commencement and termination dates of this lease having regard to the period in respect of which the calculation of Real Estate Taxes is made.

	The obligations of the parties hereto to adjust pursuant to this Article 5.3.2 for the final period of the lease shall survive the expiration of the term of this lease.

	Landlord shall furnish to Tenant upon the specific written request of Tenant copies of all pertinent valuation and assessment notices and of all pertinent tax bills and notices received by Landlord.

	5.3.3	Expenses for Contestation

		Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent the Proportion of any expenses, including legal, appraisal, administration and overhead expenses, incurred by Landlord in obtaining or attempting to obtain a reduction of any Real Estate Taxes. Real Estate Taxes which are contested by Landlord shall nevertheless be included for purposes of the computation of the liability of Tenant under Article 5.3.2 provided, however, that in the event that Tenant shall have paid any amount of increased rent pursuant to this Article 5.3 and Landlord shall thereafter receive a refund of any portion of the Real Estate Taxes on which such payment shall have been based, Landlord shall pay to Tenant the appropriate portion of such refund after deduction of the aforementioned expenses.

		Landlord shall have no obligation to contest, object to or to litigate the levying or imposition of any Real Estate Taxes and may settle, compromise, consent to, waive or otherwise determine in its discretion any Real Estate Taxes without notice to, consent or approval of Tenant.

5.4.3	Operating Expense Estimate

	Prior to the commencement of each Operating Year during the term, Landlord may at its option estimate the amount of Operating Expenses for such Operating Year or (if applicable) broken portion thereof, as the case may be, and notify Tenant in writing of the amount of its Proportion of Operating Expenses.

ARTICLE 16- INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

16.1	Landlord's Insurance

Landlord shall take out and keep in force throughout the term, upon such terms and conditions and in such amounts as would be maintained by a prudent owner of a property similar to the Building, the following insurance:

(1)	public liability and property damage liability insurance with respect to the Building;

(2)	fire and standard extended perils or "all risks" coverage and boiler and machinery insurance on all real and personal property owned by Landlord or for which it is legally responsible comprising or located upon the Building; and

- 18 -

(3)	such other forms of insurance as Landlord or its mortgagee, debenture holder or other secured creditor may from time to time consider advisable.

At the request of Tenant and at its expense, if any, Landlord will endeavour to obtain a waiver of the insurer's right of subrogation as against Tenant under the policies described in (2) above, provided that such waiver is obtainable by Landlord from its insurers. Notwithstanding such a waiver and any of the other provisions of this Article 16.1, Landlord shall retain all of its rights as against Tenant arising out of loss or damage to property of Landlord up to a limit of $250,000 or the Landlord's deductible, whichever is less in any one occurrence.

For greater certainty, nothing herein shall be construed as requiring Landlord to insure Improvements or any property owned or brought onto the Building by Tenant whether affixed to the Building or not.

Tenant shall pay any such increases in premiums forthwith upon demand as additional rent. In determining Tenants responsibility for any increased premiums, a statement by the party establishing the relevant insurance rate shall be conclusive evidence of the various components of such rate. If any insurance coverage with respect to the Building or any part thereof is actually, or threatened to be, either cancelled, reduced or materially adversely changed by the insurer by reason of the condition, use or occupancy of the Premises or any part thereof, or any act or omission of Tenant or any person for whom Tenant is in law responsible, and if Tenant fails to remedy the condition, use, occupancy, act or omission giving rise to such actual or threatened cancellation, reduction or change within 10 days after notice thereof from Landlord (or any shorter period which shall be 2 days less than the period allowed to Landlord in the notice from Landlord's insurer), Landlord may at its option either:

(1)	re enter and take possession of the Premises forthwith by leaving upon the Premises notice of its intention so to do and thereupon the provisions of this lease respecting Landlord's remedies shall apply; or

(2)	enter upon the Premises and remedy such condition, use, occupancy, act or omission and Tenant shall on demand pay Landlord for the remedy as additional rent. Tenant agrees that no such entry by Landlord shall be deemed re entry or a breach of any covenant of quiet enjoyment contained in this lease.

Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for any damage to any property located on the Premises as a result of any such entry or re-entry by Landlord.

The Tenant's occupation of the Premises during the Fixturing Period will be governed by all terms and conditions of the Lease, save and except that the Tenant will not be responsible for the payment of Basic Rent, but will be responsible for Additional Rent and Realty Taxes and will reimburse the Landlord for its utilities and any other services provided by the Landlord.

31.3	Extension of Term

If Tenant is Cranium Technologies Ltd. or a Permitted Transferee, and is itself in occupation of the whole of the Premises throughout the Term in accordance with the Lease and if Tenant is not in default and has not been in default during the Term, and Tenant has delivered a written Notice to Landlord not more than twelve (12) months and not less than nine (9) months before the expiration of the Term that Tenant wishes to extend the Term, then Landlord shall extend the Term of the Lease for the entire Premises at the expiration of the Term for a period of two (2) years (the "Extended Term").

SCHEDULE "C"

The method of measuring office building rentable area shall be that developed by the Building Owners and Managers Association International and published in their booklet "Standard Method For Measuring Floor Area in Office Building" reprinted May 1981 and reaffirmed in 1989.

Rentable area is a measure of the tenants pro rata portion of the entire office floor, excluding elements of the building that penetrate the floor to area below. The rentable area of a floor is fixed for the life of the building and is not affected by changes in corridor sizes or configurations.

The rentable area of a floor is computed by measuring to the inside finished surface of the dominant portion of the permanent outer building walls excluding any major penetrations of the floor. No deductions are made for columns and projections necessary to the building. Dominant portion means that portion of the inside finished surface of the permanent outer building wall which is 50% or more of the vertical floor-to-ceiling dimension measured at the dominant portion. If the dominant portion is not vertical, the measurement for area shall be to the inside surface of the permanent outer building wall where it intersects the finished floor. In the subject building the dominant portion is the inside surface of the exterior windows.

PROPORTION FORMULA

	A = net rentable area of tenant

	B = net rentable area of Tower 1 and 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx

	Proportion is A 95% of B
