knowledge, as the case may be, of such preceding breach at the time of payment or acceptance of such Rent.

Nothing in the Sublease shall bind the Landlord to perform anything beyond its obligations in the Lease.
	b)		any and all alterations, installations, additions, partitions, removals or other changes to be made to the Premises or Sublet Premises shall require the prior written consent of the Landlord in accordance with the provisions of the Lease; No such consent, shall compromise the Landlord’s right under the Lease, to require the Tenant to restore the Sublet Premises to the state they were in at the commencement of the term of the Lease.

3.2 The Tenant shall be liable to the Landlord for any default under the Lease or any other agreement between the Landlord and the Tenant including but not limited to the Amendment and Confirmation of Sublease, whether that default is caused by the Tenant or the Subtenant or anyone claiming by or through either the Tenant or the Subtenant, but the foregoing shall not be deemed to restrict or diminish any right which the Landlord may have against the Subtenant pursuant to the Lease, in law or in equity for violation of the Lease or any other agreement between the Landlord and the Tenant including but not limited to the Amendment and Confirmation of Sublease including, without limitation, the right to enjoin or otherwise restrain any violation of the Lease by the Subtenant.

3.3 The Landlord’s consent in Section 2.1 is restricted to the subletting of the Sublet Premises by the Tenant to the Subtenant under the Sublease for the Sublease Term and the prohibition in the Lease against entering into, consenting to or permitting any Transfer without

the Landlord’s prior written consent shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. This consent shall not be deemed to be a consent to nor waiver of the requirements for the Landlord’s consent to any subsequent Transfer.

4. SUBTENANT’S COVENANTS

4.1 The Subtenant covenants and agrees with the Landlord as follows:

	a)		the Subtenant shall perform and observe during the Sublease Term (and any renewals or extensions of it) all the obligations, covenants and conditions contained in the Lease to be performed and observed on the part of the Tenant as they pertain in any way to the Sublet Premises and the Subtenant shall indemnify and save harmless the Landlord from all loss, damage, cost and expense suffered or incurred by the Landlord as a result of the breach, non-observance or non-performance of any such obligations, covenants, and conditions to the extent that they relate in any way to the Sublet Premises and the Subtenant acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Lease;

The Landlord’s option hereunder shall be exercised by notice to the Subtenant;
	d)		the Subtenant waives any rights it may have as under-tenant under Section 32 of the Act or any like rights under common law. For the purpose of clarity, the Subtenant agrees that notwithstanding that the Landlord has consented to the Sublease, if the Landlord distrains or threatens to distrain any goods or chattels situate on the Premises (including the Sublet Premises), the Subtenant shall not seek to protect such chattels from the Landlord’s distress as contemplated by Section 32 of the Act; and
	e)		the Subtenant waives any rights it may have under Subsection 39(2) of the Act, or any like rights under common law. For the purpose of clarity, the Subtenant agrees that notwithstanding that the Landlord has consented to the Sublease, if a receiving order in bankruptcy or a winding-up order has been made against the Tenant, the Subtenant agrees not to exercise its election as under-lessee to stand in the same position with the Landlord as though the Subtenant were a direct lessee of the Landlord.
