We will rectify the situation as soon as possible. Any such requests should also be sent to the Administration reception, either by email at [email protected] or by fax at 450-681-8599. In the event you are responsible for assuming the corresponding costs, you will be notified beforehand. No work will be undertaken without your approval. Special Requests Any requests that do not qualify as a standard service call, such as enquiries about organizing an event involving an outdoor tent or renting a unit, a common area (indoor or outdoor) or an indoor parking stall, should be directed to the Administration reception at 450-681-4811, extension 221, or [email protected] Please include as much information as possible so we can reply promptly and efficiently to your request. Shipping and Receiving of Merchandise All merchandise must be loaded and unloaded from the street closest to your service entrance. If a delivery vehicle does not leave the premises immediately after it has finished loading or unloading, it is your responsibility to instruct the driver to clear the area and park in an appropriate spot. It is strictly forbidden to obstruct sidewalks or otherwise impede the normal flow of traffic or damage the property in any way. We strongly recommend that you arrange to have all your deliveries made outside of regular business hours to ensure optimal customer service for everyone. Tobacco Use Centropolis is proud to provide tenants with a smoke-free environment. Smoking inside any Centropolis building is therefore strictly prohibited and has been since the Tobacco Act came into effect in Quebec in 1998. 16 Waste Management Your waste bins must be put outside only on the pickup days indicated by your service provider. Receptacles will not be tolerated outside your establishment at any other time. Recycling Under the terms of the Go Green program and in accordance with BOMA BESt certification requirements, the Administration has undertaken a number of environmental initiatives related to the recycling of paper, boxboard, plastic, glass and metal. Two recycling compactors have been set up on site for this purpose. Considering that waste management fees are bound to go up in the coming years, we strongly recommend that you make use of these compactors if you do not already do so. To obtain the appropriate recipients for your paper/boxboard and/or plastic/glass/metal, please contact the Administration. Our outdoor maintenance team will pick up your recyclables on a daily basis, from 2:30 p.m. onward. If an additional pickup is required, please contact the Administration reception. It is your responsibility to ensure your bins are brought back inside your establishment as soon as possible after pickup. Recycling bins that remain outside for an extended period will not be tolerated. PAPER/BOXBOARD Newsprint Cardboard/paperboard Corrugated boxboard Shredded paper Milk/juice cartons Books, flyers, booklets, brochures Tissue paper Copy/printer paper 17 RECYCLABLE MATERIALS PLASTIC, GLASS & METAL Aluminum plates/trays Tin cans Aluminum cans Glass bottles (wine, liquor, coolers) Plastic bottles Water bottles (still or carbonated) Bubble wrap Glass jars NOT RECYCLABLE Plastic-, foil- or foam-lined paperboard/boxboard Waxed or plastic-coated paper Photo paper Paper plates and cups Facial tissues Waxed paperboard/boxboard Soiled paper or paperboard (oil, blood, etc.) Food packaging Soiled boxboard (paint, etc.) Polystyrene (Styrofoam) Dishes Disposable cups and glasses Leftover food Composting In keeping with our commitment to the continuous improvement of our eco-friendly practices, a composting program will soon be available to all Centropolis restaurants.

We recognize the importance of adopting environmentally friendly behaviours at Centropolis and are committed to integrating these principles into our management and procurement practices. Following are a few examples of our achievements in this regard: 1. Energy savings (HVAC timers, outdoor lighting fixtures of varying intensity, LED lighting for the water fountain, etc.); 2. Water savings (computer-assisted grass/plant watering system, low-flow toilets and urinals, waterless hand-sanitizing stations); 3. Construction waste management (we strive to do business with reputed contractors that endeavour to reduce waste wherever possible); 4. Recycling (we purchase paper made of 30% recycled materials, recycle office paper, recycle printer toners, encourage two-sided printing, etc.); 5. Careful management of hazardous products (e.g., use of eco-friendly, biodegradable cleaning products); 6. Use of environmentally sound materials (we promote the purchase and use of green, low-VOC products); 7. Maintenance of HVAC systems (we have installed rooftop HVAC units on several buildings that are programmed to meet the specific needs of tenants and must be inspected regularly as part of a preventive maintenance program); 8. Recovery of ozone-depleting substances by the maintenance contractor in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We strongly encourage you to be as green as possible in your day-to-day operations. 19 PIIA (Site Planning and Architectural Integration Program) The City of Laval’s Site Planning and Architectural Integration Program (PIIA) is designed to promote the development and preservation of quality architectural and landscaping design in commercially zoned areas, such as the Centropolis complex, and to ensure the seamless integration of new and existing elements. The clear, concise criteria set forth in the PIIA serve to guide residents and businesses planning to undertake a project that will alter the visual appearance of their property. Therefore, any initiative that will result in a change to the look of the complex, whether it is carried out by the owner or a tenant, must be approved by the appropriate city authorities to ensure it complies with the PIIA. Construction and Renovation Work Prior consent from Centropolis is required if you wish to do any construction or renovation work within your unit. Kindly contact the Administration reception to arrange an appointment with the Operations Manager. Please note that you must submit all architectural drawings and specifications (mechanical and electrical schematics, etc.) associated with your project. Once your plans are approved, you must also ensure you comply with the requirements and procedures outlined in the Tenant Construction Guidelines dated June 2014. In addition, you are required to apply for a building permit from the appropriate municipal authorities. Patios (terraces) Any patio furniture or object placed outside your establishment must be approved in advance by the Administration and meet all PIIA-related criteria set forth by the City of Laval. A guide to patio-related requirements is available through the Centropolis Administration (“Guide de l’aménagement des terrasses extérieures” – in French only). Please note that any such furniture must be removed from your patio and stored elsewhere, at your expense, during the winter months. Mail Mail is delivered directly to your establishment every day. Two Canada Post mailboxes are available for outgoing correspondence: one outside the TD bank and one in front of the office building at 225, Promenade du Centropolis. 20 Public Transit Centropolis is easy to get to via public transit. Two buses (#61 and #70) leaving from the Montmorency metro station (the last stop on the orange line) travel to Centropolis (PierrePéladeau Avenue) in a matter of minutes. A third (#42) stops at the corner of Saint-Martin Boulevard and Daniel-Johnson Boulevard. Bicycle Racks Bicycle racks are available at various locations throughout the complex to accommodate employees and customers who travel by bike to Centropolis. Given that ample parking facilities are provided, please note that bicycles are not allowed inside any of the establishments. Snow Removal With its abundance of outdoor space (1,949,530 square feet of parking space and 235,236 square feet of sidewalks) and lifestyle centre layout, Centropolis must deal with a number of unique considerations with regard to snow removal. When a snow storm hits, there are more than 200 entrances to clear as quickly as possible. Obviously, they cannot all be done at the same time. However, our snow removal crew strives to ensure timely and consistent service to all of our tenants. The crew consists of shovellers and operators for the various machines used to clear the snow. Power Outages In the event of a power outage, please notify Hydro-Québec immediately at 1-800-790-2424: If the outage is limited to your establishment, you may have to contact an electrician to check your power supply; If the outage is widespread, please refer to Hydro-Québec for more information and an estimated timeframe for restoring power. Make sure that any wood or gas stoves are turned off during a power outage. For your safety, we suggest that you have a number of working flashlights handy for use by your employees should the power be out for a prolonged period of time. Gas Leaks If you experience a gas leak within your establishment, immediately shut off the gas supply and call Gaz Métro at 911 or 1-800-361-8003, and then advise the Centropolis Administration. Do not touch anything else. Do not light any matches or lighters or use any device that may cause sparks. 21 First Aid Several of our outdoor maintenance and security staff members have been trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and two automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are available on-site. Our outdoor maintenance and security employees and Centropolis administrative staff have been instructed on how to use AEDs to respond to cardiac or respiratory arrest. If you encounter an emergency situation of this nature, call 911 immediately. While you are waiting, we encourage you to contact the Administration, who will dispatch an appropriately qualified individual to your establishment as quickly as possible. When placing the call, please make sure you provide complete, accurate information about the situation and the location of the emergency. Remember that, in such incidents, every second counts. It is therefore crucial that you stay calm and act quickly and decisively. Robbery and Vandalism If you witness a robbery or an act of vandalism at the complex, call the police and then notify the Administration. A camera surveillance system has been in place to monitor the outdoor parking areas since 2008. Deterrent signage is also posted at various locations around the property. Fraud and Counterfeit If an act of fraud (use of counterfeit money, etc.) is committed at your establishment, please notify the police and the Administration as soon as possible. Wireless Internet When you connect to the Internet, please note that you can choose between one of two providers: Videotron or Bell. 22 Departure If you choose not to renew your lease, there are several provisions in your lease agreement that you must abide by when vacating the premises, including the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. All heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, sprinkler, plumbing and electrical devices and systems as well as all fixtures and fittings must be left in place; All signs must be removed and any damage incurred as a result must be repaired; The premises must be returned in good condition, with nothing missing; All cooking and refrigeration appliances and devices left on site must be cleaned and sanitized, including grease traps and deep fryers. All water cooling or chilling units must be unplugged; If we observe that any of the above items are broken, damaged or missing, we will arrange for the necessary repairs or replacements, and the corresponding expense will be charged to you; Terminate your contract with your central alarm provider to ensure the monitoring system is no longer operational once you are gone; Terminate your Hydro-Québec service contract, in conjunction with the Centropolis Operations Manager. A document confirming the date that the power will be disconnected in your establishment must be completed and signed by both parties. (Please note that a form specifying your last meter reading will also be submitted to you to sign on the day of your departure.); Terminate your service contract with Gaz Métro, in conjunction the Centropolis Operations Manager. A document confirming the date the gas supply in the establishment will be shut off must be prepared and signed by both parties; Have any stand-alone ATMs removed no later than your day of departure; Plan your last garbage pick-up to ensure that no waste is left inside or in the vicinity of your establishment. Please have your waste disposal contractor retrieve your garbage bins, as applicable, before you vacate the premises. 23 Outdoor Parking Parking for disabled patrons Several parking spaces near the main entrances have been reserved for disabled patrons. The Laval police force will issue tickets to any unauthorized vehicles parked in these spots. Reserved parking: One-hour, two-hour and family parking Reserved parking spaces near certain retail establishments must be used as instructed to maintain a superior level of service. Violating vehicles will be towed, at the owners’ expense. Parking adjacent to buildings Vehicles may not be parked at any time alongside the sidewalks adjacent to the various buildings. These areas are designed to serve as a fire buffer. This is a city by-law, and violators will be ticketed by the Laval police force. Motorcycle parking Motorcycles may not be parked on the sidewalk at any time. There are several specially indicated spaces for motorcycles in the parking lot. Tenant and employee parking Customer service etiquette dictates that we set aside the best parking spots for our patrons. Unless otherwise specified, tenants and their employees must park their vehicles in specially designated areas farther away from the main entrances. Tenants are responsible for letting all full- and part-time employees know about this policy. If you foresee leaving your vehicle in the parking lot for a prolonged period of time (e.g., overnight), please notify the Administration to avoid having it towed away. 24 Employee parking for each building 25 SECURITY Role of Security Guards 1. Security guards are not law enforcement officers; 2. Security guards may apprehend an individual only if they witness an incident of wrongdoing first-hand; 3. Security guards may not apprehend an individual based purely on information provided by a third party; 4. Security guards, as representatives of the Administration, may take action as permitted in the corresponding legislation on private property rights; 5. Security guards may not intervene within a tenant’s establishment unless authorized by the tenant to do so; 6. Security guards may come to the assistance of a tenant only if they witness an incident of wrongdoing first-hand; 7. Security guards may not intervene unless a tenant has already made a first attempt to apprehend an individual or remove an individual from the premises. Role of the Tenant If you find yourself in a troubling or threatening situation, contact Centropolis security. Make sure to provide as much information as possible about the nature of your suspicions, your current situation, the condition of your establishment and any other potentially useful details. The security team will attempt to determine the location of the suspicious individuals in a timely manner and provide an appropriate response, based on the severity of the emergency. Please note that a person is considered to have committed an act of theft only when unpaid merchandise is physically removed from the premises. Technically, therefore, until they leave the establishment, they are not guilty of any wrongdoing. 26 General Safety and Security Guidelines Each and every individual working at your establishment must adhere to the following guidelines for their own safety as well as the safety of the entire Centropolis community. Any violation in this regard constitutes a breach in the terms of your lease, in which case the Administration reserves the right to rectify the situation, at your expense. 1) Fire prevention systems must be maintained in proper working order and inspected regularly. Portable fire extinguishers must be installed in a highly visible and accessible location; 2) All potential fire hazards must be inspected on a regular basis; 3) Any accessory or decorative feature that is not fire-resistant must be removed; 4) All exits must be free of any merchandise at all times; 5) Nothing (banners, decorations, etc.) must be hung from or otherwise attached to a sprinkler head. A minimum sprinkler head clearance of 18” (46 cm) must be maintained at all times. It is strictly prohibited to store any items in the roof space; 6) Emergency exit lights and signs must be illuminated at all times; 7) Emergency exits must remain unobstructed at all times; 8) There must be a minimum of 36” (92 cm) of clearance in front of and around all electrical panels and transformers; 9) Where applicable, fans, exhaust fans and grease traps must be cleaned monthly; 10) A sprinkler system certificate of compliance is required for each individual establishment. Furthermore, you must ensure the following: 1) All of your employees must be familiar with the location of portable fire extinguishers and their operating instructions; 2) Any unnecessary openings in the ceiling (missing ceiling tiles, punctures in the drywall, etc.) must be closed up to prevent smoke from spreading in the event of a fire; 3) All emergency exits must be clearly marked by an illuminated sign; 4) All emergency exits must be unlocked and accessible whenever the premises are occupied. 27 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES Fire In a fire, it is essential to take decisive action to avoid becoming trapped by flames or overcome by smoke, fumes or heat. Your safety and the safety of the people around you depend on your ability to act quickly. Procedure: 1) If you see or smell smoke or detect a fire or incipient fire, immediately evacuate the affected room; 2) Call the fire department (911) right away, followed by the Centropolis Administration (450-681-4811). Make sure you indicate the precise location of the fire; 3) Pull the closest manual fire alarm; 4) Evacuate the premises as quickly as possible. Close (but do not lock) all doors behind you; 5) Never yell “Fire!” Proceed calmly, and do not run; 6) As soon as the fire alarm is sounded, all occupants, without exception, must leave the premises immediately; 7) Evacuate via the closest exit. Do not waste time trying to gather your personal belongings; 8) Once outside, stay clear of the building and head toward the designated meeting spot. Do not take your car, as this may impede fire and other emergency vehicles. Do not go back into the building or allow anyone else to do so; 9) All employees and customers must remain outside, at the designated meeting spot, until they are expressly allowed to return to the premises by the appropriate authorities. In such a scenario, the fire chief is the top person in charge. Emergency phone number: 911 28 Bomb threats The following scenarios qualify as a bomb threat: 1) A letter threatening an attack using explosives; 2) A phone call indicating that a bomb has been left on the premises; 3) A package, briefcase, suitcase, backpack, box or other item that looks suspicious and/or is emitting a sound (e.g., a ticking noise) that indicates the potential presence of a bomb. If you receive a bomb threat by phone, stay calm and maintain your composure. Do not cut off or hang up on the caller.

And a “Jobs” section has been developed to announce the career opportunities available in your company. The website is therefore an excellent visibility and promotional tool. We encourage you to talk to our marketing team to find out more about the benefits of posting your information on the Centropolis website. Signage It is essential that the Centropolis brand remain strong and consistent. Tenants must therefore strive to maintain the property’s image in the various channels of communication they use to reach out to their customers. All signs or posters appearing in your front window or your indoor displays must therefore be professionally produced. Any hand-printed or hand-drawn material is unacceptable as this can undermine the image of your establishment and the complex as a whole. In addition we would like to remind you that, under the terms of your lease, you may not post any signs about auctions, going out of business, closing, bankruptcy or sales for any other similar purposes that fall outside the scope of your normal operations. Similarly, you may not post any signs indicating that you have moved to another location. Please remember that Centropolis must adhere to the signage criteria set forth in the City of Laval’s Site Planning and Architectural Integration Program (PIIA). Any actions that would lead to a change in the visual appearance of the complex taken by either the Administration or a tenant must therefore be approved by the designated city authorities to ensure compliance with the PIIA. 32 Gift Cards Centropolis gift cards can be purchased from the Administration on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Payment may be made by MasterCard, Visa, American Express, Interac, certified cheque or cash. When applied toward a purchase at a Centropolis retail establishment, gift cards are processed like a standard credit card. Gift cards can be programmed for any amount between $5 and $500.

Outdoor Display Stands In total, there are 17 outdoor display stands located throughout the complex to support you in your promotional initiatives. We invite you to take advantage of this excellent visibility tool. The installation costs will be absorbed by the Centropolis Administration. Please note that the length of time your material will remain posted may vary, depending on the number of requests we receive from our tenants. In addition, you will be required to meet certain graphic standards to ensure overall visual consistency. To book your space or find out more about our graphic standards, call Jennifer Lussier, Marketing Coordinator, at 450-681-4811, extension 228, or email her at [email protected].

Together, we can go over the various avenues open to you in terms of drawing attention to your brand in conjunction with our marketing efforts. Wireless Internet Since 2008, Centropolis has offered free wireless Internet access at all outdoor locations throughout the complex.

Annual customer traffic: 7.6 million. 35 Use of the Centropolis logo Centropolis is more than a name and a logo. The simple, modern style used reflects the brand’s personality. The red circle in the centre depicts the Place Centrale in the heart of Centropolis as well as the property’s core values of community, usability and integrity. It emphasizes the unifying aspect of the place itself and its mission. Its shape expresses a spirit of openness and creativity and its colour, an all-embracing passion for life. We encourage all of our tenants to use the Centropolis logo in their advertising material. Not only does this help people find your establishment quickly and easily, it has a positive impact on the visibility and reputation of the entire Centropolis community. Here are a few important things to keep in mind when using the Centropolis logo: Official colour The official colour of the letters in the logo is black, with the exception of the first “O” which is red (Pantone 485 C). Single-colour printing If your material is to be printed in black and white, you may use the black-only version of the Centropolis logo. CYMK equivalent Cyan: 0 Magenta: 97 Yellow: 100 Black: 0 Buffer The logo must always stand out from the background. It is therefore necessary to make sure the area around it is free of any typographical or graphical elements. The size of the buffer around the logo must be equal to or greater than the inner diameter of the red “O.” Minimum size The width of the logo should never be less than 19.05 mm / 0.75 inches / 54 pixels. A graphic standards guide on the use of Centropolis logo has been developed and is available upon request through Jennifer Lussier, Marketing Coordinator, at 450-681-4811, ext. 229, or [email protected]. 36 CENTROPOLIS RETAILERS 42.2 Course.Marche 120 Promenade du Centropolis, Laval, Québec, H7T 2Z6 Phone: 450-682-1223 Website: www.42-2coursemarche.com This store specializes in selling high end clothing, footwear and accessories dedicated to running.
