Term

The Term of this Lease shall be for the period set out in section 1.1(e)(i), beginning on the Commencement Date.

3.2

Option to Extend

(a)

Provided that the Tenant is not then in default of its obligations under this Lease beyond any applicable cure or grace period, the Landlord shall at the expiration of the Term, provided the Tenant has given the Landlord notice of its exercise of the option to extend at least twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Term, extend the Term for a further term of five (5) years (the “First Extension Term”) from the expiration of the Term, upon the same terms and conditions contained in this Lease except extension options and the Annual Base Rent to be paid during the First Extension Term.

- 2 -

(b)

Provided that the Tenant is not then in default of its obligations under this Lease beyond any applicable cure or grace period, the Landlord shall at the expiration of the First Extension Term, provided the Tenant has given the Landlord notice of its exercise of the option to extend at least twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the First Extension Term, extend the First Extension Term for a further term of five (5) years (the “Second Extension Term”) from the expiration of the Term, upon the same terms and conditions contained in this Lease except extension options and the Annual Base Rent to be paid during the Second Extension Term.

(c)

The Annual Base Rent during any Extension Term shall be the Current Market Rent for the Premises. If the Landlord and the Tenant have not mutually agreed on the amount of the Annual Base Rent at least three (3) months prior to the commencement of such Extension Term, then Annual Base Rent shall be decided in the manner set out in Section 3.3. Until the Annual Base Rent has been determined, the Tenant shall pay the monthly Rent requested by the Landlord and, upon the determination of the Annual Base Rent, the Landlord and the Tenant shall make the appropriate adjustments together with interest at the Prime Rate.

3.3

Appraisals

If the Annual Base Rent payable during an Extension Term is not agreed upon at least three (3) months prior to the commencement of such Extension Term, then each party shall, within thirty (30) days thereafter, mandate an appraiser licensed in the Province where the Premises are located, to determine the Current Market Rent for the Premises. In the event that a party fails to appoint an appraiser within such thirty (30) days and has failed to remedy such failure within five (5) days of written notice thereof from the other party, then the Annual Base Rent shall be the Current Market Rent for the Premises, as determined by the sole appraiser. If two appraisers are appointed, in the event that the higher of the amounts so determined by one appraiser does not exceed the lower so determined by the other appraiser by more than 15%, then the Annual Base Rent shall be the average of the two, otherwise, the two appraisers shall jointly name a third appraiser licensed in the Province of Alberta who shall be mandated to determine the Current Market Rent for the Premises. The Annual Base Rent shall be equal to such amount as so determined if it is no less than the lower of the first two nor no more than the higher of the first two, otherwise, it shall be whichever of the first two amounts is closest in value to the third. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Annual Base Rent during an Extension Term shall in no event be less than the Annual Base Rent during the initial Term or Extension Term then ending, as the case may be.

(b)

If the Building is substantially damaged or destroyed by any cause to the extent such that in the reasonable opinion of the Landlord’s architect or engineer (to be delivered to the Landlord and Tenant within thirty (30) days after the damage or destruction) it cannot be repaired or rebuilt (based on standard hours of construction work) or if access cannot be restored within twelve (12) months after the occurrence of the event rendering the Building Untenantable or the expiration of the Term (whichever is sooner), either the Landlord or the Tenant may at its option, exercisable by written notice to the other party given within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction, terminate this Lease, in which event the Landlord shall not be bound to repair, and the Tenant shall instead deliver up possession of the Premises to the Landlord with reasonable expedition but in any event within sixty (60) days after delivery of such notice of termination, and Rent shall be apportioned and paid to the date upon which possession is so delivered up (but subject to any abatement to which the Tenant may be entitled under section 7.3(a) by reason of the Premises having been rendered in whole or in part not reasonably capable of use and occupancy), but otherwise the Landlord shall repair such damage with such reasonable diligence.

(c)

If neither party has elected to terminate this lease pursuant to section 7.3(b) and if the Landlord has not completed the repair or the rebuilding to such an extent that it is substantially complete and ready for the Tenant’s occupancy within twelve (12) months after the occurrence of the event rendering the Building Untenantable (subject to any event of force majeure referred to in section 14.1 arising after the occurrence of the original event rendering the Building Untenantable) then the Tenant may by notice to the Landlord elect to terminate this Lease effective as of the date of the notice or such later date as may be specified therein.

Notwithstanding any other section of this Lease, the amount payable by the Tenant under this section shall be deemed not to be Rent, but the Landlord shall have the same remedies for and rights of recovery of such amount as it has for recovery of Rent under this Lease.

8.3

Tenant’s Share

Upon expiry or earlier termination of the Term or, if the Term is extended, the last Extension Term, the Landlord shall pay to the Tenant any overpayment or accrued credit balance of the Taxes paid by the Tenant to the taxing authority by the Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Tenant acknowledges that there may be a delay in the invoicing of property taxes and business taxes for the Land for the last year of the Term and that for the last year of the Term, the Tenant shall be responsible for payment of its pro-rata share of the actual Taxes.

In any calendar year of the Term in which the Tenant does not lease the Premises for the entire twelve month period, the Landlord may estimate the Taxes payable by the Tenant, and the Tenant agrees to pay to the Landlord Taxes as so estimated, in monthly instalments, in advance, on the same dates and in the same manner as Annual Base Rent. The Landlord’s estimate of Taxes may be such that, by the due date of the last instalment of Taxes payable to the relevant taxing authority, the Landlord may or may not have received from the Tenant the full amount of the Tenant’s share of Taxes for such calendar year. Promptly following receipt of the

- 12 -

final bill and/or assessment for Taxes for the period for which the estimated payments of Taxes have been made, the Landlord will give notice to the Tenant of exact amount of Taxes (together with copies of the relevant tax bills and/or assessments) and, if necessary, an adjustment will be made between the parties within thirty (30) days after such notice.

8.4

Notices of Assessment etc.

(a)

The Tenant shall, at the Landlord’s request, promptly deliver to the Landlord,

(i)

receipts for payment of all Taxes payable by the Tenant;

(ii)

notices of any assessments for Taxes or other assessments received by the Tenant that relate to the Premises, and

(iii)

whatever other information relating to Taxes in the Tenant’s possession that the Landlord reasonably requests from time to time.

(b)

The Tenant shall deliver to the Landlord, at least ten (10) days before the last date for filing appeals, notice of any appeal or contestation that the Tenant intends to institute with respect to Taxes payable by the Tenant and obtain the prior written consent of the Landlord for the appeal or contestation, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Tenant obtains the Landlord’s consent and does not pay the Taxes before the appeal or contestation, the Tenant shall,

(i)

deliver to the Landlord such security for the payment of the Taxes as the Landlord reasonably requires;

(ii)

promptly and diligently prosecute the appeal or contestation; and

(iii)

keep the Landlord informed on all aspects of it.

(c)

The Tenant shall indemnify and save the Landlord harmless from all loss, cost, charges and expenses arising from Taxes payable by the Tenant whether against the Landlord or the Tenant including, but not limited to increases in Taxes arising directly or indirectly out of an appeal or contestation by the Tenant.

(d)

The Landlord shall promptly deliver to the Tenant notices of any assessments or bills for Taxes or other assessments or bills received by the Landlord that relate to the Premises. The Landlord shall not institute any tax appeal or other contestation of Taxes without first obtaining the consent of the Tenant which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

8.5

Utility/Communication/Service Charges

The Tenant shall pay all charges for services and utilities including electricity, gas, air-conditioning, heating, fuel, water, sewer, telephone, rail siding leases and security, delivered or provided to or made available upon the Premises, and other costs which are metered, charged, levied or rated directly to the Tenant in respect of the Premises, and if, at any time, for

- 13 -

any reason, during the Term or any renewal or extension thereof, the Landlord is required to pay any or all of the foregoing, then a sum equal to the amount so paid shall forthwith become due and be collectible upon demand, failing which such sums shall become Additional Rent and the Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies with respect to said sum as if the same were Rent reserved hereunder.

ARTICLE 9

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

9.1

Environmental Laws

(a)

In its use and occupation of the Premises, the Tenant shall comply with Environmental Law in all material respects. To the extent that the Premises or the Tenant are not in compliance with applicable air approvals and related air emission matters under Environmental Law on the Commencement Date, the Tenant shall pursue diligently any approvals or certificates required by Environmental Law with respect to air emissions.

Subject to compliance with Environmental Law, the Tenant may bring onto the Premises, store, handle, use and transport any substance, including any Contaminant or waste, that may be, or has been, used in connection with its operations, including injection molding, silkscreen printing and chiller operations, and drum and pail reconditioning, cleaning, painting and sealing.

(c)

Subject to compliance with Environmental Law, the Tenant may continue to use any existing storage tanks at the Premises and may replace such tanks from time to time. In addition to replacing existing tanks, the Tenant may install new above ground and underground storage and settling tanks provided that, in the case of new tanks, the Tenant shall first obtain the consent of the Landlord as to the location and installation of any such tank in accordance with the provisions of section 11.1.

(d)

All Contaminants brought or permitted onto the Premises during the Term by the Tenant, its employees or a Transferee, despite any other provisions of this Lease to the contrary and any expiry, termination or disclaimer of this Lease, shall be and remain the property and sole responsibility of the Tenant.

9.2

Tenant’s Responsibility

(a)

Except to the extent contributed to by a Landlord Party and except for those matters listed in Section 9.5(a) for which the Landlord shall be responsible, the Tenant shall be solely responsible and liable for any work required by any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect to any Contaminants on, in or under the Premises during the Term of the Lease. Except (i) as caused by or contributed to by a Landlord Party, and (ii) for those matters listed in Section 9.5(a), the Tenant shall indemnify, defend (utilizing counsel satisfactory to the Landlord) and hold harmless the Landlord and the Landlord’s respective officers, directors, beneficiaries, shareholders, partners, agents and employees

- 14 -

from all Claims arising out of or in any way connected with any Release of any Contaminants that occurs during the Term of this Lease, at, in, on, from, under, or about the Premises or the Building, or which arises at any time from the Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, or from the Tenant’s failure to provide all information, make all submissions, and take steps required by all authorities under Environmental Law.

(b)

Upon the occurrence of any material Release of a Contaminant at the Premises and upon the Tenant becoming aware of such Release, the Tenant shall immediately give written notice to the Landlord. In any event, the Tenant shall immediately take all steps required by Environmental Law to remedy or otherwise address the situation giving rise to any Release.

(c)

If any work is required in accordance with this section 9.2 the Tenant shall prepare all necessary studies, plans and proposals and submit them to the Landlord for approval, which approved shall not be unreasonably withheld, provide all bonds and other security required by any lawful governmental authorities and carry out the work required. In carrying out such work, the Tenant shall keep the Landlord fully informed of the progress of the work. If the Landlord has reasonable grounds for believing that the Tenant will not promptly or properly carry out such work, the Landlord may, in its sole discretion, elect to carry out all such work, or any part of it, and if the Landlord does so, the Tenant shall pay for all costs in connection therewith, within thirty (30) days after the Landlord has incurred the costs and made written demand to the Tenant.

(d)

The Tenant covenants, acknowledges and agrees that its obligations and liabilities under this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

9.3

Assessment of the Premises

(a)

Prior to the Commencement Date, or shortly thereafter, the Landlord will obtain, at its cost, a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment Report (the “Baseline Phase II”) to identify those Contaminants, and the quantities thereof, present at, in or under the Premises as at the Commencement Date (the “Baseline Condition”). Prior to causing any such environmental assessment, the Landlord will obtain a written proposal from its environmental consultant as to the recommended scope of the assessment for the Premises, which proposal is subject to the Tenant’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld (the “Baseline Scope”). The Landlord will deliver a copy of the Baseline Phase II to the Tenant prior to the Commencement Date, or shortly thereafter. Without limiting any other provision herein, the Landlord and the Tenant shall, throughout the term, maintain the Premises at the Baseline Condition in accordance with their respective obligations under this Article 9.

(b)

The Landlord may at any time during the Term, if it has reasonable grounds to believe that the Tenant has not complied with Environmental Law in any material respect, including if it has in good faith reason to believe that there has been any

- 15 -

Release of any Contaminant in, on, over, under or about the Premises that would reasonably be expected to give rise to a material liability pursuant to Environmental Law, enter the Premises upon reasonable prior notice to the Tenant and cause an environmental assessment with respect to the suspected non-compliance with Environmental Law. In the case of an assessment under this section 9.3(a) the Landlord shall consult with the Tenant as to when the assessment shall be carried out and shall minimize any interference with the Tenant’s business.

(c)

The scope and breadth of such environmental assessment shall be reasonable and shall not unduly interfere with the conduct of business by the Tenant in the Premises. The resulting environmental assessment shall be addressed to both the Landlord and the Tenant and copies given to both. The Landlord shall be solely responsible for the cost of any such assessment unless such assessment reveals any material breach by the Tenant of Tenant’s covenant contained in this Lease, in which event the Tenant shall reimburse the Landlord the cost of such assessment.

(d)

If any assessment reveals any breach by the Tenant of the Tenant’s covenant contained in this Lease, the Tenant shall take reasonable steps as are necessary so as to rectify such breach. In carrying out such work, the Tenant shall keep the Landlord informed of the progress of the work.

The Tenant will, prior to the end of the Term, at its cost, deliver to the Landlord a Phase II Environmental Assessment prepared by a reputable consulting or engineering firm approved in advance by Landlord in writing, evidencing the environmental condition of the Property (the “Term Phase II”). The scope of the Term Phase II shall be equivalent to the Baseline Scope.

9.5

Landlord’s Indemnity and Covenant

(a)

Except to the extent contributed to by a Tenant Party, the Landlord will indemnify, defend (utilizing counsel satisfactory to the Tenant) and hold harmless the Tenant and the Tenant’s respective officers, directors, beneficiaries, shareholders, partners, agents and employees from all Claims, and shall be solely responsible and liable for any work required by any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect to any Contaminants that occur or arise as a result of:

(i)

the existence of any Contaminant on, in or under the Premises as at the Commencement Date or arising after the expiry of the Term and following

- 16 -

the completion of any remediation and/or work for which the Tenant is responsible hereunder; or

(ii)

the migration, transfer or movement of any Contaminant onto, into or through the Premises from any other lands; or

(iii)

the existence of any Contaminant on, in or under the Premises contributed to or caused by a Landlord Party.

Upon the occurrence of any material quantity of a Contaminant at or from the Premises and upon the Landlord becoming aware of such Contaminant, the Landlord shall immediately give written notice to the Tenant. In any event, the Landlord shall immediately take all steps required by Environmental Law to remedy the situation giving rise to any such Contaminant arising or resulting from the matters listed in Subsections 9.5(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) above.

(b)

ARTICLE 10

TRANSFERS, ASSIGNMENTS AND SUBLETTINGS

10.1

Consent Required

(a)

Subject to section 10.4, the Tenant shall not effect a Transfer without the prior written consent of the Landlord which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In determining whether or not to grant its consent, it shall not be unreasonable for the Landlord to withhold its consent if:

(i)

the Transferee does not have a history of successful business operations in the business to be conducted in the Premises and a good credit rating; or

(ii)

there is a history of defaults under commercial leases by the Transferee, or by companies or partnerships of which the Transferee was a principal shareholder or partner at the time of the defaults.

- 17 -

The Tenant shall deliver to the Landlord such information as the Landlord may reasonably require to allow the Landlord to satisfy itself as to the foregoing.

(b)

This prohibition against a Transfer shall be construed to include a prohibition against any Transfer by operation of law. If the Tenant effects a Transfer, the Landlord may collect Rent from the Transferee and apply the net amount collected to the Rent reserved in this Lease, but no such collection shall be deemed to be a waiver of this covenant or the acceptance of the Transferee as Tenant or a release of the Tenant from its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding any Transfer, except as may be otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by the Landlord, the Tenant and any Indemnifier shall remain jointly and severally liable on this Lease and shall not be relieved of any of their respective obligations hereunder. Any consent by the Landlord to any Transfer shall not constitute a waiver of the requirement for consent by the Landlord to any subsequent Transfer by either the Tenant or any Transferee.

(c)

Any consent granted by the Landlord shall be subject to the Tenant causing the Transferee to execute an agreement directly with the Landlord agreeing:

(i)

if the Transferee is an assignee, to be bound by all of the terms contained in this Lease, as if the Transferee had originally executed this Lease as Tenant; or

(ii)

if the Transferee is a subtenant or other occupant of the Premises, to do nothing, either by act or omission, that would cause the Tenant to be in default of its obligations under this Lease.

Such agreement and the consent of the Landlord to a Transfer shall be prepared by the Landlord or its solicitors and all reasonable legal and administrative costs with respect thereto shall be borne by the Tenant.

10.2

Change of Control

The prohibition against a Transfer set out in Section 10.01(a) applies to any change in the direct or indirect effective voting control of the Tenant (if the Tenant is or becomes a corporation), unless (i) the Tenant is a public corporation whose shares are listed and traded on any recognized stock exchange in Canada or the United States, and (ii) the Landlord is satisfied that there will be a continuity of business practices and policies, and management of the Tenant. If the Tenant is a partnership or is controlled by a partnership (either directly or indirectly), this prohibition against a Transfer also includes a change in the constitution of the partnership resulting from the withdrawal or addition of any partners. The prohibition also applies to an assignment by operation of law.

10.3

Leasehold Charges

The Tenant may, without the consent of the Landlord effect one or more Transfers to one or more lenders as security for a loan or loans from time to time (such Transfer being a “Leasehold Mortgage”). All rights acquired by such a Transferee (a “Leasehold Lender”) under

- 18 -

a Leasehold Mortgage shall be fully subordinate to the interest of the Landlord and to the interest of a Mortgagee and subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease.

The Leasehold Lender shall execute and deliver, prior to such Leasehold Mortgage becoming effective, a landlord/lender agreement (the “the Landlord/Lender Agreement”) in form and substance acceptable to the Landlord and the Leasehold Lender but which shall provide, inter alia, as follows:

(a)

the Leasehold Lender shall have the unrestricted right to assign, sell, participate, securitize and otherwise deal with its interest in the Leasehold Mortgage without the Landlord’s consent provided that the holder of such interest is bound by the Landlord/Lender Agreement;

(b)

the Leasehold Lender shall not take any action against the Premises for breach or default without first giving the Landlord notice of any default by the Tenant under any Leasehold Mortgage;

(c)

no voluntary surrender by the Tenant to the Landlord of this Lease or the Premises shall be valid or effective and there shall be no amendment to or cancellation of this Lease without in each case the prior written consent of the Leasehold Lender;

(d)

the Landlord shall, concurrently with the delivery to the Tenant of any notice required or permitted under this Lease and prior to commencement of any enforcement proceedings against the Tenant, deliver to the Leasehold Lender a copy of such notice and no such notice to the Tenant shall be effective against the Leasehold Lender until a copy of such notice is given in accordance with the notice provisions of this Lease to such Leasehold Lender. If the Tenant fails to cure the default, the Leasehold Lender shall have a further period of ten (10) days to cure the defaults;

(e)

if the Leasehold Lender is enforcing its security under the Leasehold Mortgage it may effect a Transfer in accordance with the terms of this Lease;

(f)

if, in the context of enforcing its security under the Leasehold Mortgage, the Leasehold Lender takes possession of the Premises it shall be bound by the terms of the Lease until such time as it shall effect a Transfer whereupon it shall be released;

(g)

upon the Leasehold Lender effecting a Transfer the Leasehold Lender shall be released from any obligations under this Lease; and

(h)

if the Lease is terminated under any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings or as a result of any default by the Tenant which is not susceptible to being cured by the Leasehold Lender, then at the request of the Leasehold Lender made within ten (10) days after the date of such termination, the Landlord will enter into a new lease on the same terms and conditions as this lease for a term expiring on the date noted in section l.l(e)(iii), subject to any rights of extension under

- 19 -

section 3.2, provided, however, that all arrears of Rent shall have been paid to the Landlord and that an amount equal to the Rent that would have been payable under the Lease from the date of such termination to the commencement date of the new lease shall have been paid to the Landlord.

The Landlord shall postpone any right that it may have to distrain or right to remove the personal property of the Tenant in favour of any lender to the Tenant. The Landlord shall execute such waiver document as the lender may require, subject to such amendments and changes as may be reasonably requested by the Landlord.

10.4

Permitted Transfers

Notwithstanding the provisions of section 10.1 and provided that the Tenant is BWAY Corporation or a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of BWAY Corporation, the Landlord’s consent shall not be required in respect of any Transfer:

(a)

which is effected in conjunction with the sale of all or substantially all of the business of the Tenant;

(b)

a Transfer to an Affiliate of BWAY Corporation in connection with a bona fide corporate reorganization of the Tenant;

(c)

a sublease of the Premises;.

provided, however, that the Landlord is given notice of such Transfer contemporaneously with the Transfer and that the transferee shall enter into an agreement under which it agrees to be bound by the Lease.

Notwithstanding any such Permitted Transfer, except as may be otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by the Landlord, the Tenant and any Indemnifier shall remain jointly and severally liable on this Lease and shall not be relieved of any of their respective obligations hereunder.

10.5

Transfer by Landlord

In the event of the sale, lease or disposition by the Landlord of the Premises or the assignment by the Landlord of this Lease or any interest of the Landlord hereunder and to the extent that the purchaser or assignee agrees in writing in favour of the Tenant to be bound by the covenants and obligations of the Landlord hereunder, the Landlord shall without further agreement be relieved of all liability with respect to such covenants and obligations.

ARTICLE 11

FIXTURES AND IMPROVEMENTS

11.1

Alterations

The Tenant may make Alterations to the Premises without first obtaining the consent of the Landlord provided that such Alterations do not affect the Structure or the base

- 20 -

building systems. The Tenant will not make any Alterations to the Leased Premises without the Landlord’s prior written approval if such Alterations will affect the Structure or the base building systems. Such consent will not be unreasonably withheld if:

(a)

the Alterations will equal or exceed the then current standard for the Building;

(b)

adequate plans and specifications are produced; and

(c)

the Tenant has obtained all requisite governmental approvals.

All Alterations will be made in a good and workmanlike manner and, if applicable, in compliance with the plans and specifications approved by the Landlord. If the Tenant obtains the consent of the Landlord to any Alteration then, unless as a condition of granting such consent, the Landlord requires that such Alteration be removed at the expiry or earlier termination of the Term the Tenant shall not be required to remove or make good any such Alteration at the expiry or earlier termination of the Term. If the Landlord’s consent is not obtained then prior to the expiry or earlier termination of the Term, such Alteration shall be removed by the Tenant and all damage caused by the installation and removal of such Alteration be repaired unless the Tenant receives written notice from the Landlord prior to the expiry of the term advising the Tenant that the Landlord will not require the Tenant to remove such Alterations.

11.2

Liens and Encumbrances on Fixtures and Improvements

In connection with any Alterations to the Premises by the Tenant, the Tenant shall comply with all the provisions of the Construction Lien Act (Ontario) (or the equivalent statute in the jurisdiction in question) (the “Act”) and other statutes from time to time applicable thereto (including any provision requiring or enabling the retention of portions of any sums payable by way of holdbacks), shall permit the Landlord to take all steps to enable the Landlord to obtain the benefit of the provisions of the Act and except as to any lawful holdback, shall promptly pay all accounts relating thereto. If and when any builder’s or other lien for work, labour, services or materials supplied to or for the Tenant or for the cost of which the Tenant may be in any way liable or claims therefor shall arise or be filed the Tenant shall within twenty (20) days after receipt of notice thereof procure the discharge thereof, including any certificate of action registered in respect of any lien, by payment or giving security or in such other manner as may be required or permitted by law, and failing which the Landlord may in addition to all other remedies hereunder avail itself of its remedy under section 15.1 and may make any payments into court (but not in any event to the lien claimant) required to procure the discharge of any such liens, shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Tenant as provided in section 15.1, and its right to reimbursement shall not be affected or impaired if the Tenant shall then or subsequently establish or claim that any lien so discharged was without merit or excessive or subject to any abatement, setoff or defence.

11.3

Removal of Fixtures and Improvements

Subject to section 15.8, the Tenant may from time to time throughout the Term remove such of its trade fixtures, furniture and equipment from the Premises as it sees fit. The Tenant shall, in the case of every removal either during or at the end of the Term, immediately

- 21 -

make good any damage caused to the Premises by the installation and removal of such furniture and equipment and, to the extent required pursuant to section 11.1, Leasehold Improvements.

11.4

Non-compliance

In the event that the Landlord determines that any alterations, additions or improvements made to the Premises or the Building systems serving the Premises by the Tenant do not comply with all applicable statutes, regulations or bylaws of any municipal, provincial or other governmental authority, and the Tenant, after receipt of notice from the Landlord, does not rectify such non-compliance with due diligence, then the Landlord may, at the Landlord’s option, rectify or repair said deficiency which shall be at the Tenant’s sole cost and expense, the same to be paid as Additional Rent by the Tenant to the Landlord upon demand.

ARTICLE 12

The Landlord shall submit the invoice for such insurance premiums or deductibles to the Tenant as they come due and the Tenant shall pay all such amounts within

- 22 -

thirty (30) days after receipt of such invoice. In the event that the Tenant fails to pay any such premium prior to its due date, the Landlord may pay such premium and claim it from the Tenant as Additional Rent. Notwithstanding any contribution by the Tenant to the cost of insurance premiums provided herein, the Tenant acknowledges and agrees that no insurable interest is conferred upon the Tenant under this Lease for purposes of any policies of insurance carried by the Landlord and the Tenant has no right to receive any proceeds of any such insurance policies carried by the Landlord.

12.2

Tenant’s Insurance

(a)

The Tenant shall, at its expense, obtain and maintain in force throughout the Term and any Extension Term and any period when it is in possession of the Premises, in the name of the Tenant with the Landlord and the Mortgagee (if any) as additional named insureds on all property insurance policies, save that the insurance policies referred to in sections 12.2(a)(i) and (ii) below shall name the Landlord as the insured with the Mortgagee (if any), as additional named insured the following insurance:

(v)

business interruption insurance covering the Annual Base Rent, the Additional Rent and all other costs and expenses in connection with the Premises, all for a twelve (12) month period; and

(vi)

such other forms of insurance and increases of the amount of coverage stipulated in the foregoing sections against such risks and in such amounts as may be customarily obtained by tenants of premises similar to the Premises and any other forms of reasonable and customary insurance as the Landlord and/or a Mortgagee, reasonably requires from time to time, in forms and amounts and for risks against which a prudent tenant would insure with a use similar to that of the Tenant.

(b)

All insurance policies provided for in this section 12.2 shall:

(i)

be taken out with insurers licensed to carry on the business of insurance in the Province in which the Premises are located;

(e)

The Tenant shall furnish to the Landlord certificates or other evidence acceptable to the Landlord as to the insurance from time to time required to be effected by the Tenant pursuant to this Lease and its renewal or continuation in force.

No action or proceedings brought or instituted under this Indemnity and no recovery in pursuance thereof shall be a bar or defence to any further action or proceeding which may be brought under this Indemnity by reason of any further default hereunder or in the performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Lease.

8.	No modification of this Indemnity shall be effective unless the same is in writing and is executed by both the Indemnifier and the Landlord.

9.	The Indemnifier shall, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, be bound by this Indemnity in the same manner as though the Indemnifier were the Tenant named in the Lease.

10.

If two or more individuals, corporations, partnerships or other business associations (or any combination of two or more thereof) execute this Indemnity as Indemnifier, the liability of each such individual, corporation, partnership or other business association hereunder is joint and several. In like manner, if the Indemnifier named in the Indemnity is a partnership or other business association, the members of which are, by virtue of statutory or general law, subject to personal liability, the liability of each such member is joint and several.

11.

All of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Indemnity extend to and are binding upon the Indemnifier, his or its heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, as the case may be, and enure to the benefit of and may be enforced by the Landlord, its successors and assigns, as the case may be, and any Mortgagee of all or any part of the Landlord or Building.

12.	The expressions “Landlord”, “Tenant”, “Base Rent”, “Building”, “Additional Rent”, “Term”, “Leased Premises”, “Person”, “Lands”, “Transferee”, “Mortgagee” and other terms or expressions where used in this Indemnity, have the same meaning as in the Lease.

13.	This Indemnity shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario.

14.	Wherever in this Indemnity reference is made to either the Landlord or the Tenant, the reference is deemed to apply also to the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns and transferees of the Tenant named in the Lease, and the successors and assigns

of the Landlord. Any assignment by the Landlord of any of its interests in the Lease operates automatically as an assignment to such assignee of the benefit of this Indemnity.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Landlord and the Indemnifier have signed and sealed this Indemnity.
