31.4    Extension of Term

If Tenant is Kinduct Technologies Inc., and is itself in occupation of the whole of the Premises throughout the Extended Term in accordance with the Lease and if Tenant is not in default and has not been in default during the Extended 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 Extended Term, then Landlord shall extend the Extended Term of the Lease for the entire Premises at the expiration of the Extended Term for a period of five (5) years (the “Second Extended Term”). The Basic Rent rate for the Second Extended Term shall be the Fair Market Rent (as defined in the following sentence). “Fair Market Rent” shall be the prevailing net rental rate for a renewal being quoted at the applicable time, for premises for tenants with comparable financial covenants in comparable buildings in the financial core in Downtown Halifax, which premises are comparable with respect to size, location, term and leasehold improvements. All other terms and conditions of the Lease will apply to the Extended Term, except that there will be no leasehold improvement work and no further right to extend the Term. If the parties are unable to agree on the Basic Rent to be paid during the Second Extended Term within 60 days of the date of the Tenant’s Notice, then this right to Extend the Term and the Second Extended Term shall be null and void and neither party shall have any rights or obligations towards the other arising therefrom. If the parties are able to agree upon a Basic Rent rate within such 60 day period, then Tenant shall sign a Lease Extension and Amending Agreement prepared by Landlord to reflect the terms of the Second Extended Term, subject to reasonable modifications as may be agreed upon between the parties. It is understood and agreed that Tenant, in exercising this right, shall be deemed to be exercising a right to extend the Term for all space which Tenant is occupying in the Building.

The Extension of Term granted to the Tenant shall be deemed to be a personal right of the Tenant and shall not be assignable or transferable by the Tenant nor shall it pass to or devolve upon any assignee or transferee of this Lease or of the rights granted thereby or subtenant of the whole or a portion of the Premises.”

“31.8    Brokerage Commission

The Tenant declares and guarantees that no broker or agent has negotiated or participated in the negotiations, conclusion or execution of this Lease Extension and Amending Agreement (including any offer or agreement that could have preceded this Agreement).

Initial Landlord

Initial Tenant

If a claim for brokerage commission should be made or become payable to any broker or agent who claims to have been retained by the Tenant, the Tenant will be solely responsible for the payment of such amounts.”

8.    The Lease is amended by adding the Schedule “F” attached hereto.

9.    This Lease Extension and Amending Agreement shall be effective on and from August I, 2022 (the “Effective Date”).

10.    The parties confirm that the Lease is in full force and effect, as modified by this Agreement. All terms, defined terms and expressions when used in this Agreement have the same meaning as they have in the Lease, unless a contrary intention is expressed in this Agreement.

11.    The Tenant acknowledges and agrees that it is in possession of the Premises, that there arc no uncured defaults by the Landlord and that the Landlord has performed all of its obligations as set out in the Lease. Except as in this Agreement otherwise provided, the Lease is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all terms, provisions and covenants thereof shall remain in full force and effect.
