35. Save as in these By-Laws otherwise provided, no business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum of persons entitled to vote is present at the time when the meeting proceeds to business, and one-half (½) of the persons entitled to vote, representing not less than 5000 Unit Factors, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum.

36. If within thirty (30) minutes from the time appointed for a meeting of the Corporation, a quorum is not present, the meeting shall stand adjourned for a further fifteen (15) minutes, and if after the fifteen (15) minute adjournment a quorum is not present, the persons entitled to vote who are present constitute a quorum.

37. The president of the Board shall be the chairman of all general meetings or, in his absence from the meeting or in case he shall vacate the chair, the vice-president of the Board shall act as chairman, PROVIDED ALWAYS that if the president and vice-president be absent or vacate the chair or refuse to act, the meeting shall elect a chairman.

38. The order of business at general meetings, and as far as is appropriate at all extraordinary general meetings, shall be:

a. If the president or vice-president of the Board shall be absent or elects to vacate the chair or refuses to act, the election of the chairman of the meeting;
b. Call to order by the chairman and establishment of a quorum;
c. Calling of the roll and certification of proxies;
d. Proof of notice of meeting or waiver of notice;

i. Appointment of auditors;
j. Election of the Board;
k. Unfinished business;
l. New business;
m. Adjournment.

39. At any general meeting, a resolution by the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a show of hands, unless a poll is demanded by any Owner or registered mortgagee present in person or by proxy. Unless a poll be so demanded, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has, on the show of hands, been carried is conclusive evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of votes recorded in favour of or against the resolution. Except for matters requiring a Special Resolution or Unanimous Resolution, all matters shall be determined by Ordinary Resolution.

40. A poll, if demanded, shall be taken in whatever manner the chairman thinks fit, and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded. In the case of equality in the votes, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, the chairman of the meeting is entitled to a casting vote in addition to his original vote. A demand for a poll may be withdrawn.

41. On a show of hands, each person entitled to vote for any Unit shall have one vote for that Unit. On a poll, the votes of persons entitled to vote for such Unit shall correspond with the number of Unit Factors for the respective Units owned or mortgaged to them.

42. Votes at any general meeting may be given either personally or by proxy.

43. An instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointer or his attorney and may be either general or for a particular meeting. A proxy need not be an Owner

44. Except in cases where by or under the Act or these By-Laws a Unanimous Resolution or Special Resolution is required, no Owner is entitled to vote at any general meeting unless all assessments payable in respect of his Unit have been duly paid to the date thirty (30) days prior to the date of such meeting. However, the presence of any such defaulting Owner shall be included in the count for quorum constitution purposes pursuant to By-Law 35 – Quorum for General Meetings.

45. a. Co-Owners may vote by proxy but only if the proxy is jointly appointed by them or by one of the Co-Owners appointed by the other or all others, as the case may be. In the absence of such proxy, Co-Owners are not entitled to vote separately on a show of hands except when a Unanimous Resolution is required by the Act, but any one Co-Owner may demand a poll.

b. On any poll, each Co-Owner is entitled to such part of the vote applicable to a Unit as is proportionate to his interest in the Unit. The joint proxy (if any) on a poll shall have a vote proportionate to the interests in the Unit of the joint Owners as do not vote personally or by individual proxy.

46. A resolution of the Owners in writing signed by each Owner or his duly appointed proxy shall have the same effect as a resolution passed at a meeting of the Owners duly convened and held.

47. Where Owners are entitled to successive interests in a Unit, the Owner entitled to the first interest (or if his interest is mortgaged by registered first mortgage notified to the Corporation, the mortgagee under such mortgage) is alone entitled to vote, whether on a show of hands or a poll.

48. Where an Owner is a trustee, he shall exercise the voting rights in respect of the Unit to the exclusion of persons beneficially interested in the trust, and those persons shall not vote.

49. Notwithstanding the provisions of these By-Laws with respect to the appointment of a proxy, where the Owner's interest is subject to a registered mortgage and where the mortgage or these By-Laws or any statute provides that the power of vote conferred on an Owner may or shall be exercised by the mortgagee, and where the mortgagee has given written notice of his mortgage to the Corporation, no instrument or proxy shall be necessary to give the mortgagee the said power to vote, and the mortgagee's power to vote shall not be limited or proscribed by the Owner's failure to pay contributions.

50. a. Any infraction or violation of or default under these By-Laws or any rules and regulations established pursuant to these By-Laws on the part of an Owner, his servants, agents, licensees, invitees, occupants or tenants that has not been corrected, remedied or cured within ten (10) days of having received written notification from the Corporation to do so, may be corrected, remedied or cured by the Corporation. Any costs or expenses incurred or expended by the Corporation, including costs as between a solicitor and his own client on a full indemnity basis, in correcting, remedying or curing such infraction, violation or default shall be charged to such Owner and shall be added to and become part of the assessment of such Owner for the month next following the date when such costs or expenses are expended or incurred (but not necessarily paid) by the Corporation and shall become due and payable on the date of payment of such monthly assessment and shall bear interest both before and after judgment at the Interest Rate until paid.

b. In addition, the Corporation may also recover from an Owner by an action for debt in any court of competent jurisdiction any sum of money which the Corporation is required to expend as a result of any act or omission by the Owner, his servants, agents, licensees, invitees, occupants or tenants, which violates these By-Laws or any rules or regulations established pursuant to these By-Laws and for which ten (10) days' prior written notice has been given by the Corporation, and there shall be added to any judgment all costs of such action, including costs as between a solicitor and his own client on a full indemnity basis. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit any right of any Owner to bring an action or proceeding for the enforcement and protection of his rights and the exercise of his remedies.

c. In addition, the Corporation may also exercise the powers provided for in sections 35 and 36 of the Act, and accordingly, if the Board determines that a breach or violation of any By-Law or of any rules or regulations established pursuant to these By-Laws has occurred or is occurring, the Board may impose a penalty by fine as follows:

i. For a first breach or infraction of a By-Law by an Owner (which for the purpose of this By-Law includes such Owner's servants, agents, licensees, invitees, customers, contractors, occupants or tenants), the Board may impose a penalty by fine on such Owner not to be less than $25.00 and not to exceed $10,000.00;

ii. For a second breach or infraction of a By-Law by an Owner (which for the purpose of this By-Law includes such Owner's servants, agents, licensees, invitees, customers, contractors, occupants or tenants), the Board may impose a penalty by fine on such Owner not to be less than $50.00 and not to exceed $10,000.00;

iii. For a third (or more) breach or infraction of a By-Law by an Owner (which for the purpose of this By-Law includes such Owner's servants, agents, licensees, invitees, customers, contractors, occupants or tenants), the Board may impose a penalty by fine on such Owner not to be less than $100.00 and not to exceed $10,000.00;

iv. If the breach or infraction of a By-Law by an Owner (which for the purpose of this By-Law includes such Owner's servants, agents, licensees, invitees, customers, contractors, occupants or tenants) is, in the determination of the Board, a continuous infraction or violation of the By-Law, the Board may impose a penalty by fine on such Owner not to be less than $25.00 per day and not to exceed $10,000.00 in the aggregate. Each day of a continuing breach shall be deemed a contravention of a By-Law.

The foregoing penalties shall be payable immediately by an Owner, subject to the Owner's right to appeal as set forth below within ten (10) days of receipt of a written notice from the Board specifying the violation and the amount of the penalty or fine imposed.

d. An Owner aggrieved by a fine levied pursuant to this By-Law subparagraph (c) may appeal the actions of the Board to an extraordinary general meeting of the Owners convened in the manner specified by these By-Laws.

i. The Owners convened in an extraordinary general meeting may rescind, amend or confirm the actions of the Board, and in so doing may inquire into all the circumstances of the alleged breach, its rectification, any fine levied or leviable, the collection or forgiveness of any fine, and generally act in their discretion to uphold the By-Laws;

ii. The appeal to the Owners shall be conducted according to rules of natural justice. No error in procedure shall operate so as to nullify the proceedings unless the error is sufficiently grave so as to prejudice the rights of all or any one of the Owners;

iii. An Owner's right to appeal any penalty imposed by the Board pursuant to this By-Law subparagraph (c) shall expire sixty (60) days following receipt of the notice specified in this By-Law subparagraph (c), or the date that proceedings have been commenced against the Owner pursuant to section 36 of the Act, whichever shall last occur.

e. The rights and remedies of the Corporation as set forth in this By-Law are supplemental to and not in substitution for any other rights or remedies that the Corporation may have under these By-Laws, the Act and the Regulations under the Act, at law or at equity, or otherwise. The Corporation may exercise, employ or pursue its rights and remedies under these By-Laws, including, without limitation, the rights and remedies under this By-Law, either selectively, cumulatively, or consecutively, and the election by the Corporation to pursue or employ any one right or remedy or to pursue or employ several rights or remedies together shall not constitute an election by the Corporation to abandon any of its other rights or remedies, none of which are waived by the Corporation.

51. a. In the event of damage or destruction of the Common Property, as a result of fire or other casualty, the Board shall determine within sixty (60) days of the occurrence whether there has been substantial damage. For the purpose of this paragraph, substantial damage shall mean damage to the extent of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the replacement value of the Common Property immediately prior to the occurrence. Prior to making any determination under this subparagraph, the Board shall obtain the opinion of an independent insurance appraiser to the effect that substantial damage has or has not occurred. If there has been substantial damage, the Board shall convene an extraordinary general meeting and give at least ten (10) days' notice by registered mail to all registered mortgagees.

Unless there has been substantial damage and the Owners by Special Resolution resolve not to proceed with repair or restoration within one hundred (100) days after the damage or destruction, the Board shall arrange for prompt repair and restoration using proceeds of insurance for that purpose. The Board shall cause the proceeds of all insurance policies to be disbursed to the contractors engaged in such repair and restoration in appropriate progress payments. Any costs of such repairs and restoration in excess of the insurance proceeds shall constitute a Common Expense, and the Board may assess all the Unit Owners for such deficiency as part of the Common Expenses.

Where there has been substantial damage and the Owners resolve by Special Resolution within one hundred (100) days after the damage or destruction not to repair, the Board shall, on behalf of the Owners, make application to terminate the condominium status of the Parcel in accordance with the provisions of the Act, and each of the Owners shall be deemed to consent to such application.

Upon termination of the condominium status:

i. any liens or charges affecting any of the Units shall be deemed to be transferred in accordance with their existing priorities to the interests of the respective Owners in the Parcel; and

ii. the proceeds of insurance shall be paid to the Insurance Trustee, if any, the Owners and mortgagees, as their respective interests may appear, in proportion to their respective interests in the Parcel in accordance with the terms of any insurance trust agreement in effect.

b. The Corporation is not responsible for any damage or loss whatsoever caused by or to any property or contents of any nature or kind in or upon a Unit or in or upon any part of the Common Property designated for the exclusive use of any Unit Owner.

c. No Owner shall be entitled to claim any compensation from the Corporation for any loss or damage to the property or person of the Owner arising from any defect or want of repair of the Common Property or any part thereof, unless such loss or damage is covered by the insurance held or required to be held by the Corporation pursuant to the Act or these By-Laws, whichever is the greater.

d. Where the Corporation is required to enter a Unit for the purpose of maintaining, repairing or renewing pipes, wires, cables and ducts for the time being existing in the Unit, the Corporation and its servants, employees and agents shall, in carrying out any work or repairs, do so in a proper and workmanlike manner and shall make good any damage to the Unit occasioned by such work and restore the Unit to its former condition, leaving the Unit clean and free from debris.

e. An Owner shall indemnify and save harmless the Corporation from the expenses of any maintenance, repair or replacement rendered necessary to the Common Property or to any Unit by his act or omission or by that of any of his employees, contractors, customers, servants, agents, invitees, licensees or tenants, but only to the extent that such expense is not met by the proceeds of insurance carried by the Corporation.

52. a. The Board, on behalf of the Corporation, shall obtain and maintain, subject always to the Act, in particular section 47 thereof and the Regulations under the Act pertaining to insurance, the following insurance:

i. Fire insurance with extended coverage endorsement for all perils as stipulated in the Act and such perils as the Board shall deem advisable, insuring:

(1) all of the insurable Common Property;
(2) all insurable property of the Corporation, both real and personal, of any nature whatsoever;
(3) the interests of and naming as insureds all Owners from time to time;
(4) all mortgagees who have given written notice to the Corporation;
(5) the Corporation; and
(6) the Board and any person referred to in By-Law 20 – Officers of the Corporation hereof;

all of the foregoing parties are hereinafter collectively called the "Insureds," as their respective interests may appear.

ii. Commercial general liability insurance insuring the Insureds against any liability to the public and/or to the Owners and their invitees, licensees or tenants, incidental to the ownership and/or use of the Common Property and Units, and such insurance shall be limited to liability in an amount not less than $2,000,000.00 inclusive for bodily injury and/or property damage per occurrence.

iii. Liability insurance, including errors and omissions coverage, in such amounts and with such deductible as the Board may determine, insuring the Board and every member thereof from time to time from and against all loss, costs, and expenses, including counsel fees, reasonably incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which they may be made a party by reason of being or having been a Manager or officer of the Corporation, except as to matters as to which they shall be finally adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding to be liable for fines or penalties imposed in a criminal suit or action, or for unjustified profit or advantage, or for any wrongful act done or attempted in bad faith or dishonesty.

iv. Such other insurance and coverage for such other risks or causes as the Board may determine or as may be determined by Special Resolution.

b. Each and every said policy of insurance shall name the Insureds and shall, as available and where applicable, provide that the policy may be cancelled or substantially modified without at least sixty (60) days' prior written notice to all Insureds.

c. A certificate or memorandum of all insurance policies and endorsements thereto shall be issued by the Board, or by the Manager on its behalf, as soon as practicable. An original or certified copy of each such policy shall be forwarded as aforesaid to each mortgagee who has in writing notified the Board of its interest. Further, a renewal certificate or memorandum or new insurance policies shall be furnished to each Insured. The master policy of all insurance coverage shall be retained by the Corporation in its offices and shall be available for inspection by any and all of the Insureds upon reasonable request.

d. Notwithstanding anything aforesaid, all proceeds of insurance on loss or claim shall be paid to the Insurance Trustee (if any), and exclusive authority to adjust losses and settle proceeds under all insurance policies shall be vested in the Board or its authorized representative. The Insurance Trustee (if any), and any expenses of the Insurance Trustee, shall be treated as Common Expenses of the Corporation.

e. The Owners may, and upon written request of any mortgagee shall, carry insurance on their own as permitted by the Act, PROVIDED THAT the liability of the insurers issuing insurance obtained by the Board hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by reason of insurance so carried by any Unit Owner AND PROVIDED FURTHER that neither the Corporation nor the Board shall be required or have any duty to insure the interests of tenants against liability or the interests of tenants or Owners for their improvements and betterments, trade fixtures, furnishings, personal property or any other property. The insuring of any of the foregoing within a Unit is the sole responsibility of the Owner, tenant or occupier of the Unit, and they shall not require the Corporation or the Board to repair any damage to any of the same, however caused.

f. In the event an Owner incurs or suffers damage or loss to his Unit that is covered or insured under any insurance policy of the Corporation, and such Owner elects to pursue recovery of such loss or damage under any insurance policy of the Corporation, such Owner shall be responsible for and pay the full amount of any deductible on such claim if, in the sole opinion of the Board, such damage or loss was caused by or arose out of any act or omission by such Owner, his employees, contractors, customers, servants, agents, licensees, invitees or tenants, and such amount shall be recoverable by the Corporation as a contribution against all other costs, charges and liabilities arising out of any loss that may be sustained or incurred by the Corporation.

53. a. The Common Expenses of the Corporation shall, with the exception of landscape maintenance expenses, which shall be paid by the Unit Owners in proportion to the landscape area for their respective Units, be paid by the Unit Owners in equal proportion for their respective Units and, without limiting the generality hereof, shall include the following:

i. all levies or charges on account of garbage removal, electricity, sewer, gas and fuel services and television antenna or cable services (if any) supplied to the Corporation for the Project and for the benefit of all Owners and not charged directly to any one Owner either by meter or otherwise;

ii. management fees and Insurance Trustee fees, if any, wages, salaries, taxes and other expenses payable to or on account of employees or independent contractors of the Corporation;

iii. all charges on account of cleaning or sweeping of parking areas, and for ice and snow removal from Common Property not designated as exclusive use areas;

iv. all charges on account of lighting fixtures situated on any Unit owned by the Corporation or on Common Property, except the balcony or patio light fixture on every Unit;

v. all charges on account of maintenance for any Unit owned by the Corporation, of those portions of a Unit or Common Property for which the Corporation is responsible under these By-Laws;

vi. all costs of furnishings, tools and equipment for use in and about the Project facilities or amenities, including the repair, maintenance or replacement thereof;

vii. all insurance costs in respect of the insurance for which the Corporation is responsible under these By-Laws and/or the Act;

viii. all costs of and charges for all manner of consultation, professional and servicing assistance required by the Corporation, including without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all legal, accounting, auditing and engineering (including capital replacement reserve fund studies as required under the Act and its Regulations) fees and disbursements;

ix. all reserves for repairs and replacement of Common Property and portions or Units or Residences, the repair or replacement of which is the responsibility of the Corporation;

x. maintenance of the exterior walls, roofs and other structural costs of the Residences in the Project;

xi. the cost of borrowing money for the purpose of carrying out the duties and objects of the Corporation;

xii. the allocable or pro rata portion of the cost of any electricity taken from any exterior plug which is billed directly to an Owner by the provider of such electricity and which is used by the Corporation for purposes of operating or maintaining Common Property;

xiii. the cost of maintaining fidelity bonds as provided in these By-Laws.

b. At least fifteen (15) days prior to the end of each fiscal year, the Corporation shall deliver or mail to each Owner at the municipal address of his Unit:

i. a copy of the budget for the ensuing fiscal year; and

ii. a notice of the assessment for his contribution towards the Common Expenses for said ensuing fiscal year. Said assessment shall, with the exception of landscape maintenance expenses, which shall be assessed in proportion to their landscape area, be made in equal proportion for all Units.

c. The budget shall set out by categories an estimate of the Common Expenses of the Corporation for the next fiscal year.

d. In establishing a budget, the Board shall comply with the requirements set forth in the Act and its Regulations respecting the Capital Replacement Reserve Fund. The Capital Replacement Reserve Fund may be used for the repair or replacement of any real and personal property owned by the Corporation and the Common Property, but is not intended to be used to cover annually recurring maintenance and repair costs which are to be set out and provided for in the annual budget.

e. The Common Expenses set forth in each contribution shall be payable to the Corporation, or to any other person, firm or Corporation to whom the Corporation shall direct payment to be made from time to time, in twelve (12) equal consecutive monthly instalments payable in advance on the first day of each month, the first instalment to be made on the 1st day of the month immediately following receipt of such notice of assessment, or such other time as may be prescribed by the Corporation.

f. All payments of whatsoever nature required to be made by each Owner and not paid within ten (10) days from the due date for payment shall bear interest at the Interest Rate from the date when due until paid. All payments on account shall first be applied to interest and then to the assessment payment first due.

g. The Corporation shall, on the application of an Owner or any person authorized in writing by him, certify within twenty (20) days:

i. the amount of any contribution determined as the contribution of the Owner;

ii. the manner in which the contribution is payable;

iii. the extent to which the contribution has been paid by the Owner; and

iv. the interest owing, if any, on any unpaid balance of a contribution;

and, in favour of any person dealing with that Owner, the certificate is conclusive proof of the matters certified therein.

h. Upon the written request of an Owner, purchaser or mortgagee of a Unit, the Corporation shall, within twenty (20) days of receiving that request, provide to the person making the request one or more of the following as requested by that person:

i. a statement setting forth the amount of any contributions due and payable in respect of a Unit;

ii. the particulars of:

any action commenced against the Corporation and served upon the Corporation;
any unsatisfied judgment or order for which the Corporation is liable; and
any written demand made upon the Corporation for an amount in excess of $5,000.00 that, if not met, may result in an action being brought against the Corporation;

iii. the particulars of or a copy of any subsisting management agreement;

iv. a copy of the current budget of the Corporation;

v. a copy of the most recent financial statement of the Corporation;

vi. a copy of the By-Laws of the Corporation;

vii. a copy of any minutes of proceedings of a general meeting of the Corporation or of the Board;

viii. the particulars of or a copy of any subsisting lease of any of the Common Property;

ix. any other information that the Corporation is obligated to provide under section 44 of the Act.

i. The Owner or occupier of a Unit shall pay to the Corporation on the first day of each month, commencing on the first day following receipt by the Owner or occupier of Notice of Estimated Monthly Assessment, the amount of the estimated monthly assessment towards Common Expenses for which his Unit is responsible, based, with the exception of landscape maintenance expenses, which shall be based on the landscape area for their respective Units, on equal proportions for their respective Units.

j. The omission by the Board to fix the contributions hereunder for the next ensuing fiscal year or other period provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver or modification in any respect of the provisions of these By-Laws or release of the Owner or Owners from their obligation to pay the contributions or special assessments, or any instalments thereof for any year or period, but the contributions fixed from time to time shall continue until new contributions are fixed. No Owner can exempt himself from liability for his contributions toward the Common Expenses by waiver of the use or enjoyment of any of the Common Property or by vacating or abandoning his Unit.

k. The Board or the Manager supplying any documents required to be provided in these By-Laws or under the Act shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee for the production thereof.

54. If at any time it appears that the annual contributions towards the Common Expenses will be insufficient to meet the Common Expenses, the Corporation may assess and collect a special contribution or assessment against each Unit in an amount sufficient to cover the additional anticipated Common Expenses. The Corporation shall give notice of such further assessment to all Owners, which shall include a written statement setting out the reasons for the assessment, and each assessment shall be due and payable by each Owner in the manner and on the date or dates specified in the notice. Each such special assessment shall be determined and assessed against the Owners in equal proportion for all Units or on such other basis as may be determined by the Board. All such special assessments shall be payable within ten (10) days of the due date for payment as specified in the notice and, if not paid, shall bear interest at the Interest Rate from the due date until paid.

55. a. The Corporation shall and does hereby have a lien on and a charge against the estate or interest of any Owner for any unpaid contribution, assessment, instalment or payment due to the Corporation, which lien shall be a lien against such estate or interest subject only to the rights of any registered mortgagee and any municipal or local authority in respect of unpaid realty taxes, assessments or charges of any kind against the Unit title or interest of such Owner. The Corporation shall have the right to file a caveat or encumbrance against the Unit title or interest of such Owner in respect of the lien or charge for the amount of such unpaid contribution, assessment, instalment or payment as hereinbefore mentioned, and for so long as such unpaid contribution, assessment, instalment or payment remains unpaid, PROVIDED THAT each such caveat or encumbrance shall not be registered until after the expiration of thirty (30) days following the due date for the first payment. As further and better security, each Owner responsible for any such contribution, assessment, instalment or payment which is in arrears for more than thirty (30) days, shall give to the Corporation a mortgage or encumbrance for the full amount thereof and all contributions, assessments, instalments and/or payments, and interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the due date or dates for payment of the same, and the Corporation shall be entitled to enforce its lien, charge and security and pursue such remedies as may be available to it at law or in equity, from time to time, including the recovery by the Corporation of its legal fees and disbursements on a solicitor and his own client full indemnity basis from such defaulting Owner.

b. Any other Owner or person, firm or Corporation whatsoever may pay any unpaid contribution, assessment, instalment or payment after the expiration of thirty (30) days following the due date for payment by the Owner in default, with respect to a Unit, and upon such payment, such party, person, firm or Corporation shall have a lien, subject to the estates or interests hereinbefore mentioned, and shall be entitled to file a caveat or encumbrance in respect of the amount so paid on behalf of the Owner in default, and shall be entitled to enforce his lien, thereby created, in accordance with the other terms and conditions of this provision.

c. Notwithstanding and in addition to any other term, condition or provision herein contained or implied, each unpaid contribution, assessment, instalment or payment shall be deemed a separate, distinct and personal debt and obligation of the Owner against whom the same is assessed and collectible as such. Any action, suit or proceeding to recover such debt or to realize on any judgment therefor shall be maintainable as a separate action, suit or proceeding without foreclosing or waiving the lien, charge or security securing the same.

d. In the event of any assessment against or instalment or payment due from an Owner remaining due and unpaid for a period of ninety (90) days, the Board shall give notice of such default to all mortgagees having an interest in such Owner’s Unit who have notified their interests to the Corporation.

e. In the event of any assessment against or instalment or payment due from an Owner remaining due and unpaid for a period of thirty (30) days, the Board, at its election, may accelerate the remaining monthly contributions, assessments, instalments and payments for the fiscal year then current upon notice to the Owner in arrears, and thereupon all such unpaid and accelerated monthly contributions, assessments, instalments and payments shall become payable on and as of the date of the said notice.

f. All reasonable costs of the Manager and legal costs and disbursements incurred by the Corporation (including costs on a solicitor and his own client full indemnity basis) in registering and discharging a Caveat which either the Manager or the Corporation expends as a result of any act or omission of an Owner, his servants, agents, licensees, invitees or tenants which violates these By-Laws or any rules or regulations established pursuant thereto, or incurred or in any way for securing or enforcing its interests hereunder or the taking of any remedies to cure any default hereunder, shall constitute a payment due the Corporation.

56. Where a mortgagee has notified the Corporation of its interest, any notice of default sent to an Owner shall also be sent to the mortgagee.

57. Any certificate as to an Owner's position with regard to contributions, expense assessments or otherwise, issued by an officer of the Corporation or the Manager shall be deemed to be an estoppel certificate, and the Corporation and all of the Owners shall be estopped from denying the accuracy of such certificate against any mortgagee, purchaser or other person dealing with the Unit Owner. But this shall not prevent the enforcement against the Unit Owner incurring the said expense of all obligations of the said Unit Owner, whether improperly stated in such estoppel certificate or not.

58. a. In the event that any Owner desires to lease or rent his Unit, he shall furnish to the Corporation an undertaking, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, signed by the proposed lessee or occupant, that the proposed lessee or occupant of the Unit will comply with the provisions of the Act and of the By-Laws of the Corporation. The Owner shall not be released of any of his obligations and shall be jointly and severally liable with the proposed lessee or occupant with respect to such obligations.

b. The Corporation is authorized to:

i. impose and collect deposits under Section 53 of the Act. If any deposit is used in accordance with the Act or these By-Laws, the Owner shall replace that portion of the deposit used within ten (10) days of being notified, in writing, by the Board of its use;

ii. give notices to give up possession of Units under Section 54 of the Act; and

iii. make applications to the Court under Sections 55 and 56 of the Act.

c. No tenant shall be liable for the payment of contributions or assessments or Common Expenses under these By-Laws unless notified by the Corporation that the Owner from whom he rents the Unit is in default of payment of contributions, in which case the tenant shall deduct from the rent payable to the Owner such default contributions and shall pay the same to the Corporation. Any such payment by the tenant shall be deemed to be a rental payment made to the Owner.

d. An Owner shall not lease or rent his garage independently or separately from the rest of the Owner's Unit, and any leasing or rental arrangement shall be for the entire Unit, inclusive of the garage, unless the Owner obtains the written approval and consent of the Corporation. Furthermore, all rules and regulations relating to the leasing of Units as set out in the within By-Laws shall apply to the rental of a garage.

59. Subject to the provisions of the Act, upon termination of the condominium status for any purpose, all debts of the Corporation shall first be paid out of the assets, and the balance of the assets, if any, shall be distributed to the Owners in equal proportion subject to the interests of any mortgagees.

60. The realty taxes and other municipal and governmental levies or assessments against land, including improvements, comprising all or any part of the Units and the Common Property comprising the Project shall be assessed and imposed in accordance with the provisions of the Act, but until such time as the assessing authority assesses each Unit and the share in the Common Property appurtenant thereto pursuant to the Act, such realty taxes and other municipal and governmental levies or assessments shall be apportioned and adjusted amongst all the Owners in equal proportion for all Units or on such other basis as may be determined by the Board.

61.

a. The common wall constructed or to be constructed on or about the lot line between the adjoining Units has been or will be constructed as a party wall to be used for the joint purposes of the adjoining Residences so erected by the Owners and shall be used and maintained as a party wall in such manner as to ensure to each Owner in respect of their adjoining Residence the enjoyment of a right to support and use, all to the intent that no portion or part of the wall erected shall, for any purpose whatsoever, be construed or deemed to be an encroachment on any adjoining Unit and shall continue as a party wall perpetually. To the extent that any portion or part of the party wall shall encroach upon any Unit, the Owner of such Unit grants and conveys to each adjoining Owner an easement for the purposes of such encroachment;

b. Each Owner grants and conveys to each adjoining Owner an easement in support of the party wall and any vertical or linear extensions thereof in respect to the width of the party wall constructed upon the Owner's Unit, to the extent such easement shall be annexed to and run with such Unit in accordance with the provisions herein set forth;

d. Each Owner shall afford the Corporation and any adjoining Owner and the Corporation's or the Owner's agent or workmen all such reasonable access as may be necessary to enable the party wall to be speedily and effectively built, repaired and maintained, as the case may be, provided that in connection with such access reasonable notice shall be given and as little damage as possible will be occasioned to the property of the other Owner and that, in the event of any damage being occasioned to the property of the Owner, such damage will be repaired to the satisfaction of the other Owner at no cost to the other Owner.

69. Following registration of the Condominium Plan, there shall be implied in respect of each Unit shown on said plan:

When an easement is implied by this By-Law, the Owner of any utility service who is providing his service to the Parcel, or to any Unit on it, is entitled to the benefit of any of those easements that are appropriate to the proper provision of that service but not to the exclusion of the Owner of any other utility service.

The provisions set forth in this By-Law are in addition to and not in substitution for the provisions of Sections 22 through 24 inclusive of the Act.

70. These By-Laws, or any of them, may be added to, amended or repealed by Special Resolution of the Corporation and not otherwise. The Corporation shall cause to be prepared and distributed to each Owner and mortgagee who has notified its interest to the Corporation, a notice or memorandum of any proposed amendments, additions or repeal thirty (30) days prior to the date of any such Special Resolution and thereafter provide each such mortgagee with a copy of any registered amendment, addition or repeal.

71. Should the Act or Regulations be amended and changed in the future, then these By-Laws shall be deemed to have been amended accordingly to adopt any and all such changes to the Act which are required to be adopted to enable the Corporation to operate at all times with the full powers of the Act and to use all remedies available to it under the Act.

72. The provisions hereof shall be deemed independent and severable, and the invalidity in whole or in part of any By-Law does not affect the validity of the remaining By-Laws, which shall continue in full force and effect as if such invalid portion had never been included herein.

Any notice given by post shall be deemed to have been sent and received forty-eight (48) hours after it is posted. An Owner or a mortgagee may at any time in writing advise the Corporation of any change of address at which notices shall be served or given, and thereafter the address specified therein shall be deemed to be the address of such Owner or mortgagee, as the case may be, for the giving of notices. The word “notice” shall include any request, statement or other writing required or permitted to be given hereunder or pursuant to the Act or these By-Laws.
