From time to time throughout the Term, the Landlord shall give notice to the Tenant of the Landlord's estimate of such Additional Rent to be paid by the Tenant during the next ensuing fiscal period. Each estimate shall be reasonable.

Within 30 days after the receipt of such statement, either the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord any amount by which the amount found payable by the Tenant with respect to such fiscal period exceeds the aggregate of the monthly payments made by it on account thereof or the Landlord shall pay to the Tenant any amount by which the amount found payable as aforesaid is less than the aggregate of such monthly payments. The Tenant shall have the right, exercisable by notice to the Landlord given within 30 days after receipt of any statement of such Additional Rent submitted by the Landlord as aforesaid, to verify the accuracy of any amount shown on any statement by requiring the Landlord to give to the Tenant appropriate explanations related to such statement. In the event of any dispute by the Tenant as to the amount of such Additional Rent payable, a letter of the Landlord's auditors shall be conclusive. 4.5 Apportionment of Rent: Rent shall be considered as accruing from day to day hereunder. If it is necessary to calculate Rent for a period of less than one year or less than one calendar month, an appropriate apportionment and adjustment on a pro rata daily basis shall be made. Where the calculation of Additional Rent cannot be made until after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, the obligation of the Tenant to pay such Additional Rent shall survive the expiration or earlier termination hereof, and such amount shall be paid by the Tenant to the Landlord forthwith upon demand. If the Term commences on any day other than the first day of the month, Rent for such fraction of a month shall be adjusted, as aforesaid, and paid by the Tenant on the commencement date of the Term. 4.6 No Right of Set-off: The Tenant expressly waives the benefits of section 35 of the Landlord and Tenant Act R.S.0 1980, Chapter 232 and any amendments thereto and any present or future enactment of the Province of Ontario permitting the Tenant to claim a set-off against Rent for any cause whatsoever. 4.7 Additional Rent Deemed Rent: All Additional Rent shall be deemed to be rent and the Landlord shall have all rights against the Tenant for default in payment of Additional Rent as for default in the payment of Basic Rent. 4.8 Interest on Arrears: If the Tenant fails to pay Rent when due, the Tenant shall pay interest on the unpaid amount at the Rate of Interest from the date due until the date paid, without prejudice to and in addition to any other remedy available to the Landlord under this Lease or at law. -8- 4.9 Net Lease to Landlord: This Lease and the Rent payable hereunder shall be absolutely net to the Landlord, except as expressly provided herein.

If there are separate assessments (or, in lieu thereof, calculations made by authorities having jurisdiction from which separate assessments may, in the Landlord's opinion, be readily determined) for the Premises for tax purposes, the Landlord shall use same for purposes of determining the amount payable by the Tenant pursuant to this subsection (a). The Tenant shall provide the Landlord with a copy of any separate notices of assessment for the Premises which the Tenant has received. If there are no such separate assessments or calculations, the Tenant shall pay the Tenant's Proportionate Share of all taxes attributable to the development provided that if the Landlord acting reasonably determines that another method of calculating the Tenant's contribution to Taxes is appropriate, such other method shall be used. (b) The Tenant shall, in respect of each calendar year included in whole or in part within the Term, pay to the Landlord the amount by which Taxes are increased above the Taxes which would have otherwise been payable as a result of the Premises or the Tenant or any other occupant of the Premises being taxed or assessed in support of separate schools. (c) Payment by the Tenant of all amounts on account of Taxes shall be governed by sections 4.3 and 4.4. -9- 5.4 Payments: (a) The Landlord may postpone any payment payable by it pursuant to section 5.1, and the Tenant may postpone any payment payable by it directly to a taxing authority (but not to the Landlord) pursuant to this Article in each case to the extent permitted by law and if prosecuting in good faith any appeal against the imp sition thereof, but provided that in the case of a postponement by the Tenant which involves any risk of the Development or any part thereof or the Landlord becoming liable to assessment, prosecution, fine or other liability, the Tenant shall have given security in a form and of an amount satisfactory to the Landlord in respect of such liability and such undertakings as the Landlord may reasonably require to ensure payment thereof. (b) Whenever requested by the Landlord, the Tenant shall deliver to the Landlord receipts for payment of all amounts owing by the Tenant pursuant to section 5.2 and furnish such other information in connection therewith as the Landlord may reasonably require. ARTICLE 6 SERVICES, COMMON FACILITIES 6.1 Tenant's Contribution to Operating Costs: (a) The Tenant shall, throughout the Term, pay to the Landlord the Tenant's Proportionate Share of Operating Costs.

If such equipment or systems are damaged or destroyed, or, in the opinion of the Landlord, require repair, inspection, overhauling or replacements the Landlord shall carry out such work with all reasonable diligence. The Landlord shall not be responsible for any loss, damages or costs arising from the failure of such equipment or systems to perform their function. In addition, the Landlord shall not be responsible for the failure of such equipment and systems to perform their function if the number of persons in the Premises at any one time exceeds a reasonable number or if the electrical load from lights and power in the Premises is excessive or if such failure results from any arrangement of partitioning in the Premises or change or alteration thereto or if the window covering on exterior windows is not kept fully closed while the windows are exposed to direct sunlight or if any use of mechanical or electrical equipment installed in the Premises generates heat in excess of amounts specified in the Building Standard, all as determined by the Landlord acting reasonably. The Landlord shall not be liable for direct, indirect or consequential damage or damages for personal discomfort or illness of the Tenant or its employees, invitees or other persons transacting business with it by reason of the operation or non-operation of such systems and equipment. In no event shall Rent abate during any non-operation. -10- 6.3 Additional HVAC: The Tenant may, upon two days' prior notice to the Landlord, request the Landlord to provide any service mentioned in section 6.2 to the Premises or any portion or portions thereof during such non Business Hours as the Tenant specifies.

If the Tenant does not, within 72 hours (or such lesser period as the Landlord may reasonably require having regard to the urgency of the situation), provide appropriate evidence of compliance with this section, the Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) obtain some or all of the additional coverage or other insurance which the Tenant shall have failed to obtain, without prejudice to any other rights of the Landlord under this Lease or otherwise, and the Tenant shall pay all premiums and other costs incurred by the Landlord forthwith upon demand. 10.4 Release of Landlord by Tenant: The Tenant agrees that neither the Landlord nor its directors, officers, agents, employees or any others for whom the Landlord is at law responsible shall be liable to any extent for any personal injury or death of, or loss or damage to any property belonging to the Tenant or its employees, invitees or licensees or any other person in, on or about the Development unless resulting from the actual gross negligence of the Landlord (but only to the extent of such actual gross negligence).
