21.01	Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

21.02	The failure of any party at any time to require performance of any provision or to resort to any remedy provided under this Agreement shall in no way affect the right of that party to require performance or to resort to a remedy at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by any party of a breach be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach.

21.1	For the purposes of section 21.11, and without limiting the grounds on which the Developer may reasonably withhold its consent under that section, the Developer will be deemed to have reasonably withheld its consent if a grant to be made under that section would:

The arbitrator will have the authority to determine and award the cost of the Arbitration. The Arbitration will be conducted at the offices of the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations (or any successor ministry) in British Columbia, and if there is no office of the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations (or any successor ministry) in British Columbia, then the offices of Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations (or any successor corporation or ministry) that is closest to the Developer’s head office in British Columbia, except as otherwise may be agreed by the parties.

21.01	Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

21.02	The failure of any party at any time to require performance of any provision or to resort to any remedy provided under this Agreement shall in no way affect the right of that party to require performance or to resort to a remedy at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by any party of a breach be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach.

21.03	The Developer and the Province will perform such further acts and execute all further documents that may be required from time to time to evidence or give full force and effect to the intent of this Agreement.

---

21.04	Nothing in this Agreement constitutes the Developer the agent, joint venturer or partner of the Province or gives the Developer any authority or power to bind the Province in any way.

(b)	the Developer diligently attempts to remedy the cause of the delay.

21.06	For the purpose of section 21.05, the inability of the Developer to obtain financing or the funds necessary for the construction of an Improvement or Access Route, other than provincial or municipal highways for which the Province or municipality has indicated that the Province or municipality, as applicable, has responsibility, is not a cause beyond the reasonable control of the Developer.

21.07	Nothing in this Agreement constitutes an obligation, express or implied, of the Province to use public funds for the construction or maintenance of any part of the Development or any Access Route.

21.08	Any notice required to be given by either party to the other will be deemed to be given if mailed by prepaid registered mail in Canada or delivered to the address of the other as follows:

---

21.09	In order to expedite the delivery of any notice required to be given by either party to the other, a concurrent facsimile copy of any notice will, where possible, be provided to the other party but nothing in this section, and specifically the lack of delivery of a facsimile copy of any notice, will abrogate from the deemed delivery provided in section 21.08.

21.1	To the extent necessary, the terms, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

21.2	The Province reserves the right in accordance with the Policies to grant licences of and interests in the land comprising the Controlled Recreation Area, or any part of it, under the Land Act which are not inconsistent with the Resort Master Plan with the prior written consent of the Developer which consent will not be unreasonably withheld including the following:

(a)	by way of easement, right-of-way or statutory right-of-way to the Province, a Crown Corporation or agency, a municipality, Local Government or a public utility company; and

(b)	to Persons other than the Developer pursuant to the Policies.

21.1	For the purposes of section 21.11, and without limiting the grounds on which the Developer may reasonably withhold its consent under that section, the Developer will be deemed to have reasonably withheld its consent if a grant to be made under that section would:

(a)	materially affect the Developer’s exercise of any of its rights under this Agreement; or

(b)	be incompatible or in competition with the Developer's use of or business in and on the Controlled Recreation Area.

21.2	The Developer will not make a claim for compensation, in any form, in respect of a grant made under section 21.11 where the Developer has consented, or unreasonably withheld its consent, to such grant.

---

21.3	Nothing in this Agreement or a Tenure diminishes any right the Developer may have to use any highway (as that term is defined in the Transportation Act).

21.4	Unless required by law, the Province will not disclose the Financial Information, any statement referred to in section 5.09, any information obtained in an audit pursuant to section 5.10 or any information as to Gross Revenue, Golf Revenue or Independent Operator Revenue to any Person without the prior written consent of the Developer.

21.5

This Agreement supersedes and replaces the Prior Agreement and the Prior Agreement is of no further force or effect. Notwithstanding the above, any outstanding payment obligations, and any other sections of the Prior Agreement (including Schedules) which, by their terms or nature, were intended to survive the termination of the Prior Agreement will continue in force indefinitely subject to any limitation period prescribed by law even after the Prior Agreement ends.

21.6	Notwithstanding section 21.16, statutory right-of-ways registered in the Vancouver Land Title Office under Registration Numbers R80919, BM52319, BH294161, BH294161, and BH294158, will survive the termination of the Prior Agreement and will continue in force in perpetuity subject to any limitation period prescribed by law.
