(a) The Vendors and the Purchaser covenant and agree to cause their respective solicitors to enter into the most recent document registration agreement adopted by the Law Society of Ontario, as same may be reasonably amended by the agreement of both the Vendors’ Solicitors and the Purchaser’s Solicitors (the “DRA”), together with the requirement that the registering solicitor shall be obliged to provide the non-registering solicitor with a copy of the registration report printed by the electronic registration system (“TERS”) upon the registration of the electronic documents, as evidence of the registration thereof, on the Closing Date.

ARTICLE VIII

OPERATIONS UNTIL CLOSING

8.1 Work Order

Following waiver or satisfaction of the Due Diligence Condition, the Vendor covenants and agrees with the Purchaser that in respect of any work order, deficiency notice, order to comply or other directive or notice of non-conformity from a Governmental Entity that relates to any defect or deficiency in the construction, state of repair or state of completion of the Property (a “Work Order”), the Vendor shall, to the extent reasonably possible, comply with same prior to Closing at its expense and deliver evidence of such compliance to the Purchaser or an undertaking to comply with same at its sole expense as soon as reasonably possible after the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in the reasonable opinion of the Purchaser’s arm’s length independent architect, engineer or other qualified expert, the cost to effect such compliance exceeds the amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00), the Purchaser shall so advise the Vendor and the Purchaser may either (i) assume such excess costs and proceed to Closing, with the Purchaser entitled to an adjustment on Closing in its favour equal to the estimated cost of compliance, or (ii) not complete the purchase of the Purchased Assets, in which case this Agreement shall be terminated, null and void and of no further force or effect whatsoever, each of the Vendor and the Purchaser shall be released from all of its liabilities and obligations under this Agreement (other than those liabilities and obligations which are expressly stated to survive the termination of this Agreement), and the Deposit and accrued interest shall, subject to Section 4.2(b), be returned to the Purchaser.

8.2 Damage Before Closing

(a) The interests of the Vendor in and to the Property being purchased, acquired and assumed by the Purchaser pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be at the risk of the Vendor until Closing. If any loss or damage occurs before Closing to the Building, in excess of ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price (such loss or damage and replacement cost to be determined by the Purchaser’s arm’s length, independent architect, engineer or other qualified expert, acting reasonably), the Purchaser, within five (5) Business Days after disclosure to the Purchaser by the Vendor of the loss or damage and the extent thereof, shall by Notice to the Vendor elect either (i) to complete the purchase of the Property, in which event the Purchaser shall be entitled to the proceeds of insurance, if any, in respect of the loss or damage and the Vendor shall pay any deductibles in respect of such loss or damage, or (ii) not to complete the purchase of the Property, in which case this Agreement shall be terminated, null and void and of no further force or effect whatsoever, each of the Vendor and the Purchaser shall be released from all of its liabilities and obligations under this Agreement (other than those liabilities and obligations which are expressly stated to survive the termination of this Agreement), and the Deposit and accrued interest shall, subject to Section 4.2(b), be returned to the Purchaser.

(b) If other loss or damage to the Building occurs, the Purchaser shall have no right to elect to terminate this Agreement, the Purchaser shall be entitled to all proceeds of insurance in respect of such loss or damage (plus the reimbursement by the Vendor of any deductibles), and the Parties shall complete the within Transaction.

8.3 Ordinary Course/Specific Transactions

From the Effective Date until Closing, the Vendor shall operate the Property or cause the Property to be operated in the same manner as it has been operated prior to the Effective Date and, in any event, in accordance with sound business and management practices as would a reasonable owner of comparable properties, and not deal with the Property prior to the Closing Date in any way that could reasonably adversely affect the proposed use of the Property by the Purchaser.

8.4 Leasing and Contracts Prior to Closing

From and after the Effective Date, the Vendor may not enter into any Lease, Contract or Permitted Encumbrance affecting the Property without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which may be withheld in its sole, absolute and unfettered discretion as to Leases and Contracts, and which may not be unreasonably withheld as to Permitted Encumbrances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Vendor may enter into customary maintenance and/or operational Contracts after the Effective Date without the approval of the Purchaser, provided the Vendor (i) notifies the Purchaser of same, and (ii) terminates such Contracts at its sole cost and expense prior to Closing, or such Contracts expire prior to Closing.

8.5 Assignment of Purchased Assets

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an assignment of, or an attempt to assign to the Purchaser, any right, title or interest in any Purchased Asset which is (i) not assignable, or (ii) not assignable without the approval or consent of the other party or parties thereto, without first obtaining such approval or consent (collectively “Non-Assignable Rights”). In connection with such Non-Assignable Rights the Vendor shall, at the request of the Purchaser and in each case at the Purchaser’s expense:

(a) apply for and use all reasonable commercial efforts to obtain all such consents or approvals, in a form satisfactory to the Purchaser acting reasonably, provided that nothing herein shall require the Vendor to make any payment or incur any obligations to any other party; and

(b) co-operate with the Purchaser in any reasonable and lawful arrangements designed to provide the benefits of such Non-Assignable Rights to the Purchaser, including without limitation, holding any such Non-Assignable Rights in trust for the Purchaser as the Purchaser may so direct or acting as agent for the Purchaser, as the Purchaser may so direct, provided that pursuant to such arrangements the Purchaser fully indemnifies the Vendor for all costs, obligations or liabilities incurred thereunder or in connection therewith.

ARTICLE IX
