ARTICLE 7
SERVICES AND OPERATION OF BUILDING

7.1

Services to Premises

Landlord shall provide the following services to the Premises, subject to the further provisions set forth in Schedule “D”:

ARTICLE 8
USE OF PREMISES

8.1

Use

The Premises shall be used and occupied by Tenant for the purpose of carrying on the Authorized Use and for no other purpose. Tenant shall not permit any part of the Premises to be occupied by any Person other than Tenant or a permitted assignee or subtenant and their respective employees.

8.2

No Warranty of Use

Landlord does not make any representation or warranty whatsoever to Tenant in respect of the use of the Premises which is permitted under applicable Laws during the Term or is permitted by any applicable zoning by-laws during the Term. Nothing herein shall be interpreted so as to imply that the Lease is conditional upon the Tenant obtaining any permit for the carrying on of its business from any municipal or other authority. Tenant shall be solely responsible to obtain, at its own cost, all permits, consents and authorizations required for its occupation of the Premises and the operation of its business therein.

8.3

Continuous Operation

Tenant shall occupy the Premises throughout the Term and shall continuously and actively conduct in the whole of the Premises the business permitted by the Authorized Use. Tenant acknowledges that its continued occupancy of the Premises and the continuous and active conduct of its business in the Premises are of the utmost importance to Landlord in:

avoiding the appearance and impression generally created by vacant space;

(b)

facilitating the leasing of vacant space in the Building and the lease renewals of existing tenants;

(c)

maximizing the rents payable to the Landlord both by existing tenants and new tenants of the Building; and

(d)

maintaining the character, quality and image of the Building.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant fails to operate continuously in the Premises as of the Commencement Date as provided in this section 8.3 but continues to pay all Rent as and when due it shall not be considered to be a default hereunder.

ARTICLE 9
INSURANCE AND NON-LIABILITY

9.1

Tenant’s Insurance

Tenant shall maintain during the Term and any renewal thereof or later occupation of the Premises insurance with respect to its interest in the Premises, the fixtures and Improvements made by or on behalf of Tenant in the Premises, and all operations of Tenant in and from the Premises.

(a)

“all risks” (including flood and earthquake) coverage for property of every kind owned by Tenant or for which Tenant is legally liable or installed by or on behalf of Tenant and which is located within the Building, including, without limitation,

(d)

business interruption insurance in such amounts as will reimburse Tenant for direct and indirect loss of earnings attributable to the perils insured against in subparagraph 9.1 (a) and other perils commonly insured against by prudent tenants; and

(e)

such other coverage as Landlord or the Mortgagee may require having regard to the risks which are customarily insured against by prudent tenants of like premises.

Such insurance shall include:

(A)

Landlord and any Mortgagee designated by Notice from Landlord together with those for whom they are in law responsible as named insureds as their respective interests may appear;

(B)

a severability of interests and cross-liability clauses protecting Landlord in respect of claims by Tenant as if Landlord was separately insured;

(C)

a provision prohibiting the insurer from materially altering or canceling the coverage without first giving Landlord at least 30 days prior Notice thereof; and

(D)

a waiver of any subrogation rights which Tenant’s insurers may have against Landlord and against those for whom Landlord is in law responsible.

Tenant shall provide Landlord with certificates of such insurance and any renewals thereof and, at Landlord’s request, with a certified copy of its insurance policy(ies).

9.2

Landlord’s Insurance

Subject to general availability on reasonable commercial terms, the Landlord shall effect and maintain during the Term:

(a)

“all risks” insurance which shall insure the Building for an amount not less than the replacement cost thereof from time to time (excluding foundations at the Landlord’s option), against loss or damage by perils now or hereafter from time to time embraced by or defined in a standard all risks insurance policy;

(b)

broad form boiler and machinery insurance on objects defined in a standard broad form boiler and machinery policy against accidents as defined therein, with limits of not less than ten million dollars ($10,000,000), which coverage shall include, without limitation, loss or damage of whatsoever kind or nature by reason of explosion or collapse by vacuum or cracking, burning, or bulging of any steam or hot water boilers, pipes and accessories and loss of rental income;

- 10 -

(c)

“all risks” rent and rental value insurance in an amount sufficient to replace all Minimum Rent and Additional Rent payable under the provisions of this Lease for an indemnity period of one (1) year or such other period as the Landlord may determine;

(d)

comprehensive general liability insurance against claims for bodily injury (including death); personal injury and property damage arising out of all operations in connection with the management and administration of the Building, in an amount not less than five million dollars ($5,000,000) inclusive of any one occurrence; and

(e)

such other coverage, or increases in the amount of coverage specified above in this Section 9.2, as any Mortgagee may require from time to time or as the Landlord may deem prudent from time to time;

with such deductibles and exclusions as the Landlord deems appropriate from time to time. Notwithstanding the Landlord’s obligation to insure as set out above and the Tenant’s contribution to the cost of the Landlord’s insurance premiums, (i) the Tenant is not relieved of any liability arising from or contributed to by its negligence or its wilful acts or omissions, (ii) no insurable interest is conferred upon the Tenant under the Landlord’s insurance policies, and (iii) the Tenant has no right to receive proceeds from the Landlord’s insurance. Landlord’s insurance shall contain a waiver of subrogation rights which Landlord’s insurers may have against Tenant, Tenant’s insurers and persons under Tenant’s care and control.

9.3
