	(c)		At the request of the Tenant, the Landlord will contest any Taxes and appeal any assessments with respect to the Property and the Leased Premises, provided all penalties, interest and other costs arising out of such actions are to be paid for by the Tenant (unless the Tenant is successful and in such event such costs are to be included in Common Area Maintenance Costs).

	(e)		if the Tenant delivers the Acceptance Notice to the Landlord within the applicable time period and such time period occurs at any time on or after January 1, 2007, then the Tenant will, prior to receiving vacant possession of the Additional Premises, execute and deliver to the Landlord an amendment to this Lease incorporating the Additional Premises for the balance of the Term and all exercised renewals thereof, upon the terms and conditions contained in the Third Party Offer except that the term will be coterminous with the Term and any exercised renewals thereof;

	(g)		if the Tenant shall not deliver an Acceptance Notice with respect to any Additional Premises, such Additional Premises may thereafter be leased by the Landlord to the person identified in the Third Party Offer and failing leasing pursuant to such Third Party Offer, the provisions of this section shall apply again.

22.2 Right of First Offer

(b)

if the Tenant exercises this right of first offer for the Available Space and a binding agreement to lease is executed by the Landlord and the Tenant, the Tenant will, prior to

			taking occupancy of the Available Space, execute and deliver to the Landlord an amendment to this Lease incorporating the agreed upon terms;
	(c)		if the Tenant does not exercise this right of first offer for the Available Space within the time limited, the Landlord will be entitled to lease the Available Space to any other person for any use whatsoever and on whatever terms and conditions the Landlord may decide in its sole discretion, provided that the rent, the term and any rent concessions are not substantially more favourable to such third party then those set forth in the Offer Notice; and
	(d)		this right of first offer is personal to the Tenant and will become null and void upon the termination, surrender or other determination of this Lease, or the occurrence of any Assignment of this Lease other than an Assignment in accordance with section 8.1(b).

entitled, in its full and absolute discretion, to determine whether the Tenant may include in the Surrendered Area any part of the Building which does not comprise a full floor to the extent such floor is being leased by the Tenant.

ARTICLE 24 — TENANT IMPROVEMENT ALLOWANCE AND
DEMOLITION ALLOWANCE

24.1 Tenant Improvement Allowance

Subject to the provisions of this section 24.1, the Landlord shall pay to the Tenant an allowance (the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”) of $1,134,675.00 calculated on the basis of $25.00 per square foot of the Area of the Leased Premises.

Provided the Tenant is not then in material breach of this Lease, the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be paid by the Landlord on a monthly draw basis to the Tenant upon receipt by the Landlord of a statutory declaration stating that there are no claims of builders’ lien or other liens or encumbrances affecting the Leased Premises with respect to work, services, materials and equipment relating to the Leased Premises, and that the Tenant’s designers, contractors, subcontractors, works, and suppliers of materials and equipment have been paid in full for all work and services performed and materials and equipment supplied by them on or to the Leased Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Landlord shall not be obligated to pay the Tenant Improvement Allowance until the Tenant has executed and delivered a copy of this Lease. The Landlord shall be permitted to set off and deduct from the Tenant Improvement Allowance any outstanding amounts owing by the Tenant to the Landlord pursuant to this Lease, provided that the Tenant is first given forty eight (48) hours notice with respect to such outstanding amounts in order to remedy such breach.

24.2 Demolition Allowance

It is expressly understood and agreed that the Demolition Allowance is to be paid for the purpose of reimbursing the Tenant for demolition work to be carried out by the Tenant on the Leased Premises (the “Demolition Work”). Provided the Tenant is not then in breach of this Lease, and further provided that the Tenant is occupying all of the fourth and fifth floors of the Building, the Demolition Allowance shall be paid by the Landlord after the last to occur of the following:

(a)

the receipt by the Landlord from the Tenant of a statutory declaration executed no less than sixty (60) days after completion of the Demolition Work, stating that there are not claims of builders’ lien or other liens or encumbrances affecting the Leased Premises with respect to work, services, materials and equipment relating to the Leased Premises, and that the Tenant’s designers, contractors, subcontractors, works, and suppliers of materials and equipment have been paid in full for all work and services performed and materials and equipment supplied by them on or to the Leased Premises;

	(b)		receipt by the Landlord of a copy of this Lease duly executed by the Tenant; and

ARTICLE 25 — INDEMNITY

25.1 Indemnity

In consideration of the Landlord leasing the Leased Premises to the Tenant, and the sum of $1.00 now paid by the Landlord to the Indemnifier, and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the Indemnifier), the Indemnifier unconditionally agrees to and covenants with the Landlord to indemnify and save harmless the Landlord from any loss, cost or damage, including consequential loss and costs on a solicitor and own client basis, which the Landlord may sustain, incur or become liable for by reason of:

	(a)		the failure, for any reason, of the Tenant to pay all Minimum Rental, Additional Rental or other moneys contemplated to be payable by this Lease at the time and in the manner contemplated by this Lease;
	(b)		the failure, for any reason, of the Tenant to observe and perform every covenant, agreement, condition and obligation contemplated to be performed by the Tenant under this Lease or arising from any termination of this Lease, rejection, disaffirmation or disclaimer of this Lease in any proceeding or other parting of possession of the Leased Premises by the Tenant, except for a voluntary surrender of the Leased Premises by the Tenant, accepted by the Landlord in accordance with this Lease; and
	(c)		any act or action by the Landlord for or in connection with the enforcement of this Lease (collectively, the “Indemnity”).

25.2 Enforcement of Indemnity

The Landlord shall have the right to enforce the Indemnity regardless of the acceptance of additional security from the Tenant and regardless of the release or discharge of the Tenant by the Landlord or by others or by operation of any law.

25.3 Continuation of Indemnity

This Indemnity is absolute and unconditional and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the liability of the Indemnifier under this Indemnity shall not be deemed to have been waived, released, discharged, impaired, or affected by reason of the release or discharge of the Tenant in any receivership, bankruptcy, winding-up, or other creditors’ proceedings, or the rejection, surrender, disaffirmation, or disclaimer of this Lease by any party or in any action or proceeding, and shall continue with respect to the periods prior thereto and thereafter for and with respect to the Term and any renewals thereof. The liability of the Indemnifier shall not be

affected by any repossession of the Leased Premises by the Landlord, provided however that the net payments received by the Landlord, after deducting all costs and expenses of the repossession and reletting the same, shall be credited from time to time by the Landlord to the account of the Indemnifier and the Indemnifier shall pay any balance owing to the Landlord from time to time immediately upon ascertainment.

25.4 No defence

No action or proceeding 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 or default hereunder or in the performance and observance of the covenants, agreements, conditions and provisos of this Lease.

25.5 Modification in writing

No modification of this Indemnity shall be effective unless the modification is in writing and signed by the Indemnifier and the Landlord.

25.6 Authority

The Indemnifier covenants with the Landlord that the Indemnifier has the necessary power and capacity to give this Indemnity and is jointly and severally bound with the Tenant for the fulfilment of all obligations of the Tenant under this Lease as though the Indemnifier was the Tenant named in this Lease.

25.7 Enurement

All of the covenants, agreements, conditions and provisos of this Indemnity shall extend to and be binding upon the Indemnifier, its successors and assigns and shall enure to the benefit of and may be enforced by the Landlord, its successors and assigns and the holder of any mortgage to which this Lease may be subject and subordinate from time to time.

25.8 Assignments, Reorganization, etc.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indemnity, in the event this Lease is assigned, sublet or otherwise transferred by the Tenant with or without the consent of the Landlord or there is a reorganization, merger, sale, partnership change or other change in ownership interest in the Tenant, the Indemnifier shall remain liable for the performance of its obligations hereunder, except that the indemnity of the Indemnifier will not extend to any new obligation of the transferee assumed in a modification of this Lease.

25.9 New Lease

If this Lease is terminated, disclaimed or surrendered (other than if voluntarily surrendered by the Tenant in accordance with the terms of this Lease), then at the option of the Landlord, the Indemnifier will lease the Leased Premises from the Landlord on the terms and conditions of this Lease, except as to any extension or renewal, for a term equal in duration to the residue of the term remaining unexpired at the date of the termination, disclaimer or surrender. It will not be necessary for a further lease document to be executed by the Indemnifier (but the Landlord reserves the right to require that a new lease be executed), and the execution of this Lease by the Indemnifier will be treated as executed by the Indemnifier as tenant of a lease of the Leased

		Premises on the terms and conditions of this Lease. The Indemnifier will accept that lease and pay rent and observe and perform the terms and conditions of that lease. The Indemnifier will do all acts and execute and deliver such documents as the Landlord may reasonably require to give effect to the intent of this section 25.9.
25.10		Governing Law and Attornment
		This Indemnity will be governed by and construed in accordance with British Columbia law and the applicable Canadian laws, and will be treated in all respects as a British Columbia contract, and the Indemnifier agrees to attorn to the jurisdiction of the British Columbia courts.

ARTICLE 26 — DISPUTE RESOLUTION

26.1		Dispute Resolution
		In the event the Landlord and the Tenant are unable to agree as to any matters set out in this Lease which require agreement (save and except the rent to be determined pursuant to section 21.3), then either party may notify the other, by written notice (in this section, the “Notice”), of a desire to resolve the dispute by mediation and a meeting will be held promptly between the parties, attended by individuals with decision-making authority regarding the dispute, to attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of the dispute. If, within fourteen (14) days after such meeting or such further period as is agreeable to the parties (the “Negotiation Period”), the parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution of the dispute, they agree to submit the dispute to mediation. The parties will jointly appoint a mutually acceptable mediator, seeking assistance from the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Centre if they have been unable to agree upon such appointment within twenty (20) days following the conclusion of the Negotiation Period. If the parties are not successful in resolving the dispute through mediation, or if the mediation has not commenced within thirty (30) days following the Negotiation Period, then the parties agree that the dispute will be settled by arbitration pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Act of British Columbia, as amended from time to time, or any like statute in effect from time to time and the decision of such arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding upon the parties.

ARTICLE 27 — SIXTH FLOOR PREMISES

27.1		Sixth Floor
		The Landlord covenants and agrees that if it receives a plan for the Tenant’s proposed use of the sixth floor of the Building on or before February 1, 2005, it will apply to the City of Vancouver to rezone the fitness facility/meeting room amenity space on the sixth floor of the Building comprising approximately 2,206 square feet to allow the Landlord to lease such area to the Tenant. If the Landlord has not received such approval from the City in a form satisfactory to the Tenant on or before the Commencement Date, that part of the Leased Premises comprising the sixth floor shall not be included in the definition of the Leased Premises, but shall form part of the Common Areas and, for the purposes of calculating Gross Leasable Area, shall be divided among all tenants in the Building in accordance with BOMA, and the Tenant shall thereupon be entitled to the use of such amenity space in common with other tenants in the Building.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties have executed this Lease as of the date first above written.
