Transfers Generally Landlord may sell, assign, transfer or convey, without Tenant’s consent, the Leased Property, in whole (subject to exclusions for assets that may not be transferred and that, in the aggregate, are de minimis) but not in part (unless in part due to a transaction in which multiple Affiliates of a single Person (collectively, “Affiliated Persons”) will own the Leased Property as tenants in common, but only if this Lease remains as a single, indivisible Lease and all such Affiliated Persons execute a joinder to this Lease as “Landlord”, on a joint and several basis, the form and substance of which joinder shall be reasonably satisfactory to Tenant and Landlord) to a single transferee (such transferee, such tenants in common or any other permitted transferee of this Lease, in each case, an “Acquirer”) and, in connection with such transaction, if the Acquirer is not an Affiliate of Landlord, (a) Landlord shall amend the minimum capital expenditure requirements hereunder (such amendment to be limited solely to the amount of such minimum capital expenditure requirements) such that, in the aggregate such minimum capital expenditure requirements hereunder (taken together with the Minimum Cap Ex Requirements under and as defined in the Other Leases, after taking into consideration applicable reductions of the Minimum Cap Ex Requirements under and as defined in the Other Leases in the amount of the Minimum Cap Ex Reduction Amount), shall be no greater than the Minimum Cap Ex Requirements under this Lease and the Other Leases prior to such sale, assignment, transfer or conveyance; and (b) such minimum capital expenditure requirements shall be calculated on an individual, standalone basis under this Lease and under the Other Leases; except, however, the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) shall not apply to any transaction described in clause (iii) below. If Landlord (including any permitted successor Landlord) shall convey the Leased Property in accordance with the terms of this Lease, other than as security for a debt, and the applicable Acquirer expressly assumes all obligations of Landlord arising after the date of the conveyance, Landlord shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations of Landlord under this Lease arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer and all such future liabilities and obligations shall thereupon be binding upon such applicable Acquirer. Without limitation of the preceding provisions of this Section 18.1, any or all of the following shall be freely permitted to occur: (i) any transfer of the Leased Property, in whole but not in part (subject to exclusions for assets that may not be transferred and that, in the aggregate, are de minimis), to a Fee Mortgagee in accordance with the terms of this Lease (including any transfer of the direct or indirect equity interests in Landlord), which transfer may include, without limitation, a transfer by foreclosure brought by the Fee Mortgagee or a transfer by a deed in lieu of foreclosure, assignment in lieu of foreclosure or other transaction in lieu of foreclosure; (ii) a merger transaction or other similar disposition affecting Landlord REIT or a sale by Landlord REIT directly or indirectly involving the Leased Property (so long as (x) upon consummation of such transaction, all of the Leased Property (subject to exclusions for assets that may not be transferred and that, in the aggregate, are de minimis) is owned by a single Person (or multiple Affiliated Persons as tenants in common) and (y) such surviving Person(s) execute(s) an assumption of this Lease, the MLSA and all Lease/MLSA Related Agreements to which Landlord is a party, assuming all obligations of Landlord hereunder and thereunder) (in the case of multiple Affiliated Persons, on a joint and several basis), the form and substance of which assumption shall be reasonably satisfactory to Tenant and Landlord); (iii) a sale/leaseback transaction by Landlord with respect to the entire Leased Property (subject to exclusions for assets that may not be transferred and that, in the aggregate, are de minimis) (provided (x) the overlandlord under the resulting ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that, in the event of a termination of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, this Lease shall continue in effect as a direct lease between such overlandlord and Tenant and (y) the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not impose any new, additional or more onerous obligations on Tenant without Tenant’s prior written consent in Tenant’s sole discretion (and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not impose any additional monetary obligations (whether for payment of rents under such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or otherwise) on Tenant), subject to and in accordance with all of the provisions, terms and conditions of this Lease; (iv) any sale of any indirect interest in the Leased Property that does not change the identity of Landlord hereunder, including without limitation a participating interest in Landlord’s interest under this Lease or a sale of Landlord’s reversionary interest in the Leased Property so long as Landlord remains the only party with authority to bind Landlord under this Lease, or (v) a sale or transfer to an Affiliate of Landlord or a joint venture entity in which any Affiliate of Landlord is the managing member or partner, so long as (x) upon consummation of such transaction, all of the Leased Property (subject to exclusions for assets that may not be transferred and that, in the aggregate, are de minimis) is owned by a single Person or multiple Affiliated Persons as tenants in common and (y) such Person(s) execute(s) an assumption of this Lease, the MLSA and all Lease/MLSA Related Agreements to which Landlord is a party, assuming all obligations of Landlord hereunder and thereunder (in the case of multiple Affiliated Persons, on a joint and several basis), the form and substance of which assumption shall be reasonably satisfactory to Tenant and Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord shall not sell, assign, transfer or convey the Leased Property, or assign this Lease, to (I) a Tenant Prohibited Person (as defined in the MLSA), (II) a Manager Prohibited Person (as defined in the MLSA), or (III) any Person that is associated with a Person who has been found “unsuitable”, denied a Gaming License or otherwise precluded from participation in the Gaming Industry by any Gaming Authority where such association would reasonably be expected to adversely affect, any of Tenant’s or its Affiliates’ Gaming Licenses or Tenant’s or its Affiliates’ then-current standing with any Gaming Authority. Any transfer by Landlord under this Article XVIII shall be subject to all applicable Legal Requirements, including any Gaming Regulations, and no such transfer shall be effective until any applicable approvals with respect to Gaming Regulations, if applicable, are obtained. Tenant shall attorn to and recognize any successor Landlord in connection with any transfer(s) permitted under this Article XVIII as Tenant’s “landlord”.
