Minimum Rent actually paid by Tenant for such preceding Accounting Period.
(c) Look Back Payment. In addition to the Advance Minimum Rent and
the Minimum Rent paid under this Section 3.1.1, within sixty (60) days after the
Threshold Guaranty Repayment Date, the Tenant will pay to the Landlord as
Minimum Rent an amount equal to the difference between the Minimum Rent
calculated pursuant to paragraph 2 of Exhibit "A-1" and an amount equal to the
Minimum Rent that would have been payable to the Landlord from the first day
after the last day of the Base Year until the Threshold Guaranty Repayment Date
if the amount of Minimum Rent due under paragraph 2 of Exhibit "A-1" was
multiplied by a rate of 10.50% (as opposed to 10.25%) (the "Look Back Payment").
If the Look Back Payment due from Tenant to Landlord is not paid within sixty
(60) days after the Threshold Guaranty Repayment Date, Tenant shall not be in
Default under this Agreement but shall pay to Landlord a late charge computed at
3% of the Look Back Payment from the due date of the Look Back Payment to the
date of payment thereof.
3.1.2 Percentage Rent.
(a) Amount. For each Fiscal Year commencing with the first
Accounting Period after the Base Year, Tenant shall pay percentage rent
("Percentage Rent") with respect to such Fiscal Year, in an amount equal to ten
percent (10%) of the Excess Facility Revenues for such Fiscal Year (or portion
thereof).
(b) Quarterly Installments. Subject to the terms of Section
3.1.2(a), installments of Percentage Rent for each Fiscal Year or portion
thereof shall be calculated and paid each Fiscal Quarter in arrears. Payment of
each such installment shall be made within thirty (30) days after the end of
each Fiscal Quarter and shall be accompanied by (i) a statement from the
Operator setting forth the calculation of Percentage Rent due and payable for
such Fiscal Quarter if the Operating Agreement is in effect or (ii) a
certificate from an officer of the Tenant certifying to the best of his
knowledge and belief and setting forth the calculation of Percentage Rent due
and payable for such Fiscal Quarter if the Operating Agreement is not in effect.
Installments due with respect to each Fiscal Quarter shall be equal to the
Percentage Rent for all Fiscal Quarters elapsed during the applicable Fiscal
Year less amounts previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant. If the
Percentage Rent for such elapsed Fiscal Quarters as shown on the last quarterly
statement is less than the amount previously paid with respect thereto by
Tenant, Tenant shall be entitled to offset the amount of such difference against
Rent next coming due under this Agreement, such offset to be applied together
with interest at the Disbursement Rate accruing from the date of payment by
Tenant until the date the offset is applied.
(c) Reconciliation of Percentage Rent. In addition, on or before
seventy-five (75) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, commencing with the
first full Fiscal Year after the Base Year, Tenant shall deliver or shall cause
Operator to deliver, to Landlord a statement setting forth the Total Facility
Revenues for such preceding Fiscal Year together with a certificate of an
officer of the Tenant, or Operator's chief accounting officer during the term of
the Operating Agreement, certifying that such year-end statement is true and
correct. The Landlord shall within thirty (30) Business Days after the receipt
of such statement send a Notice to the Tenant and to the Operator, if
applicable, of any disputed items or matters in appropriate detail. If Landlord
desires, at its own expense, to audit, examine or review the statement and
supporting records and/or certain procedures at the Retirement Community, as may
be agreed upon by Landlord, Tenant and Operator, if applicable, with respect to
internal financial controls, accounting policies and accounting procedures, or
other procedures at the Retirement Community, Landlord shall notify Tenant in
writing within sixty (60) days after receipt of such statement of its intention
to audit and/or review such procedures and begin such audit and/or review no
sooner than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days after Tenant's
receipt of such Notice. Landlord shall complete such audit and/or review within
ninety (90) days after commencement thereof. If Landlord does not conduct such
an audit and/or review, then such statement and procedures shall be deemed to be
conclusively accepted by Landlord as being correct, and Landlord shall have no
right thereafter, except in the event of fraud by Tenant and/or Operator, if
applicable, to question or examine the same. If such review by Landlord
determines that the procedures specified above are not in compliance with the
terms of this Agreement, Landlord will provide Tenant and Operator, if
applicable, with written Notice of such deficiency and Tenant and Operator shall
remedy such deficiency.
If the annual Percentage Rent for such preceding Fiscal Year as shown
in the annual statement exceeds the amount previously paid with respect thereto
by Tenant, Tenant shall pay such excess to Landlord at such time as the annual
statement is delivered, together with interest at the Disbursement Rate, which
interest shall accrue from the Accrual Date (as hereinafter defined) until the
date that such certificate is required to be delivered (or, if sooner, the date
Tenant pays such excess to Landlord) and, thereafter, such interest shall accrue
at the Overdue Rate, until the amount of such difference shall be paid or
otherwise discharged. In the case of any underpayment of Percentage Rent by
Tenant arising out of incorrect reporting on any statement of Percentage Rent,
the Accrual Date therefor shall be the payment due date for the respective
installment of Percentage Rent with respect to which the underpayment occurred.
In the case of any underpayment of Percentage Rent arising out of variation in
Total Facility Revenues from Fiscal Quarter to Fiscal Quarter, the Accrual Date
shall be the payment due date for the final installment of Percentage Rent for
such preceding Fiscal Year. If the annual Percentage Rent for such preceding
Fiscal Year as shown in the annual statement is less than the amount previously
paid with respect thereto by Tenant, Tenant shall be entitled to offset the
amount of such difference against Rent next coming due under this Agreement,
such payment or credit to be made together with interest at the Disbursement
Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment of Tenant until the
date such offset is applied. If such offset cannot be made because the Term has
expired prior to application in full thereof, Landlord shall pay the unapplied
balance of such offset to Tenant, together with interest at the Disbursement
Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the
date of payment by Landlord.

official receipts or other reasonably satisfactory proof evidencing such
payments. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be
paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance
of such Imposition), Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same (and any
accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and,
in such event, shall pay such installments during the Term as the same become
due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added
thereto. Landlord, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by
Applicable Law, prepare and file all tax returns and pay all taxes due in
respect of Landlord's net income, gross receipts, sales and use, single
business, ad valorem, franchise taxes and taxes on its capital stock, and
Tenant, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable
Laws, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any
Imposition as may be required by Government Agencies. If any refund shall be due
from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by Tenant, the same
shall be paid over to or retained by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon
request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom
the request is made with respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary to
prepare any required returns and reports. In the event Government Agencies

shall file all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may
legally so file. Each party shall, to the extent it possesses the same, provide
the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing
returns for any property so classified as personal property. Where Landlord is
legally required to file personal property tax returns for property covered by
this Agreement and/or gross receipts tax returns for Rent received by Landlord
from Tenant, Landlord shall file the same with reasonable cooperation from
Tenant. Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in
sufficient time for Tenant to prepare a protest which Landlord shall file, at
Tenant's written request. All Impositions assessed against such personal
property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the
relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same
may be made without interest or penalty.
Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable
by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge; provided,
however, that Landlord's failure to give any such Notice shall in no way
diminish Tenant's obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions (except that
Landlord shall be responsible for any interest or penalties incurred as a result
of Landlord's failure promptly to forward the same).
(b) Utility Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all
charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and other utilities used in

to be paid all amounts, liabilities and obligations arising in connection with
the Contracts, as defined in the Purchase Agreement.

Additional Charges. If any Additional Charges have not been reimbursed to Tenant

Agreement and under the Other Leases, to pay Operating Losses (as defined in the
Operating Agreement) for each of the Collective Leased Properties and to pay
other amounts due and payable under the Operating Agreement and under the
operating agreements for each of the Collective Leased Properties.
Section 3.2 Late Payment of Rent, Etc.
If any installment of Additional Minimum Rent, Minimum Rent, Look Back
Payment, Percentage Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional
Charges which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be paid within ten
(10) days after its due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord, within five (5) days
after Landlord's written demand therefor, as Additional Charges, a late charge
(to the extent permitted by law) with interest at the Overdue Rate on the amount
of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of
payment thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly
to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this
Agreement, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional
Charges to the Entity to which they would otherwise be due and Landlord shall
pay when due, or cause the applicable Facility Mortgagee to pay when due, such
Additional Charges to the Entity to which they are due. If any payment due from
Landlord to Tenant shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date,
Landlord shall pay to Tenant, on demand, a late charge (to the extent permitted
by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment from the
due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof.
In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Charges
when due, except as expressly provided in Section 3.1.3(a) with respect to
permitted contests pursuant to Article VIII, Tenant shall promptly pay (unless
payment thereof is in good faith being contested and enforcement thereof is
stayed) and discharge, as Additional Charges, every fine, penalty, interest and
cost which may be added for non-payment or late payment of such items. Landlord
shall have all legal, equitable and contractual rights, powers and remedies
provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise in the case of
non-payment of the Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of the
Minimum Rent and Percentage Rent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Tenant's obligations under
Section 20.4.3 hereunder, no late charges or interest shall be payable by Tenant
with respect to any amounts referred to in this Section 3.2 to the extent that
such delay in payment is attributable to any delay in payment of any amounts
required to be paid by Operator pursuant to the Operating Agreement.
Section 3.3 Net Lease
The Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord so that this Agreement
shall yield to Landlord the full amount of the installments or amounts of the
Rent throughout the Term, subject to any other provisions of this Agreement
which expressly provide otherwise, including, without limitation, those
provisions for adjustment, refunding or abatement of such Rent and for the
funding of Landlord's obligations pursuant to Sections 5.1.5. This Agreement is
a net lease and, except to the extent otherwise expressly specified in this
Agreement, it is agreed and intended that Rent payable hereunder by Tenant shall
be paid without notice, demand, counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense and
without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction and that
Tenant's obligation to pay all such amounts, throughout the Term and all
applicable Extended Terms is absolute and unconditional and except to the extent
otherwise expressly specified in this Agreement, the respective obligations and
liabilities of Tenant and Landlord hereunder shall in no way be released,
discharged or otherwise affected for any reason, including without limitation:
(a) any defect in the condition, merchantability, design, quality or fitness for
use of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or the failure of the Leased
Property to comply with all Applicable Laws, including any inability to occupy
or use the Leased Property by reason of such noncompliance; (b) any damage to,
removal, abandonment, salvage, loss, condemnation, theft, scrapping or
destruction of or any requisition or taking of the Leased Property or any part
thereof, or any environmental conditions on the Leased Property or any property
in the vicinity of the Leased Property; (c) any restriction, prevention or
curtailment of or interference with any use of the Leased Property or any part
thereof including eviction; (d) any defect in title to or rights to the Leased
Property or any lien on such title or rights to the Leased Property; (e) any
change, waiver, extension, indulgence or other action or omission or breach in
respect of any obligation or liability of or by any Person; (f) any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or
other like proceedings relating to Tenant or any other Person, or any action
taken with respect to this Agreement by any trustee or receiver of Tenant or any
other Person, or by any court, in any such proceeding; (g) any right or claim
that Tenant has or might have against any Person, including without limitation
Landlord (other than a monetary default) or any vendor, manufacturer, contractor
of or for the Leased Property; (h) any failure on the part of Landlord or any
other Person to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Agreement, or of
any other agreement; (i) any invalidity, unenforceability, rejection or
disaffirmance of this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise against or by
Tenant or any provision hereof; (j) the impossibility of performance by Tenant
or Landlord, or both; (k) any action by any court, administrative agency or
other Government Agencies; (l) any interference, interruption or cessation in
the use, possession or quiet enjoyment of the Leased Property or otherwise; or
(m) any other occurrence whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the
foregoing, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, and whether or not Tenant shall
have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the
foregoing shall not apply or be construed to restrict Tenant's rights in the
event of any act or omission by Landlord constituting negligence or willful
misconduct. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement
shall be noncancellable by Tenant for any reason whatsoever and, except as
expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant, to the extent now or hereafter
permitted by Applicable Laws, waives all rights now or hereafter conferred by
statute or otherwise to quit, terminate or surrender this Agreement or to any
diminution, abatement or reduction of Rent payable hereunder. Except as
specifically set forth in this Agreement, under no circumstances or conditions
shall Landlord be expected or required to make any payment of any kind hereunder
or have any obligations with respect to the use, possession, control,
maintenance, alteration, rebuilding, replacing, repair, restoration or operation
of all or any part of the Leased Property, so long as the Leased Property or any
part thereof is subject to this Agreement, and Tenant expressly waives the right
to perform any such action at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law.

such approvals.
Section 4.3 Lawful Use, Etc.
If the Operating Agreement is in effect, Tenant shall comply with the
terms of the Operating Agreement in connection with the use of the Retirement
Community and the obligations to prohibit waste and/or unlawful nuisances set

not commit or suffer to be committed any waste on the Leased Property, or in the
Facility, nor shall Tenant cause or permit any unlawful nuisance thereon or
therein. Tenant shall not suffer nor permit the Leased Property, or any portion
thereof, to be used in such a manner as (i) might reasonably impair Landlord's

use, maintenance and disposal of Hazardous Substances and all orders or
directives from any official, court or agency of competent jurisdiction relating
to the use or maintenance or requiring the removal, treatment, containment or
other disposition thereof, and (e) pay or otherwise dispose of any fine, charge
or Imposition related thereto, unless Tenant shall contest the same in good
faith and by appropriate proceedings and the right to use and the value of the
Leased Property is not materially and adversely affected thereby.
Tenant's liability and obligations pursuant to the terms of this
Section 4.5.1 are subject to the provisions of Sections 5.1.3 and 5.1.5 and
Landlord's compliance with its funding obligations under Section 5.1.5.
4.5.2 Indemnification.
Tenant and Landlord shall each protect, indemnify and hold harmless the
other, its trustees, directors, officers, agents, employees and beneficiaries,
and any of their respective successors or assigns with respect to this Agreement
(collectively, the "Indemnitees" and, individually, an "Indemnitee") for, from
and against any and all debts, liens, claims, causes of action, administrative
orders or notices, costs, fines, penalties or expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) imposed upon, incurred by
or asserted against any Indemnitee resulting from, either directly or
indirectly, the presence during the Term in, upon or under the soil or ground
water of the Leased Property or any properties surrounding the Leased Property
of any Hazardous Substances in violation of any Applicable Law or otherwise
(collectively, the "Environmental Claims"), provided that any of the foregoing
arises by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
indemnifying party, except to the extent the same arise from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the other party or any other Indemnitee.
This duty includes, but is not limited to, costs associated with personal injury
or property damage claims as a result of Environmental Claims prior to the
expiration or sooner termination of the Term and the surrender of the Leased
Property to Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Agreement free of
Hazardous Substances in, upon or under the soil or ground water of the Leased
Property in violation of an Applicable Law. Upon Notice from the indemnified
party and any other of the Indemnitees, the indemnifying party shall undertake
the defense, at its sole cost and expense, of any indemnification duties set
forth herein, in which event, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for
payment of any duplicative attorneys' fees incurred by the other party or any
Indemnitee.
4.5.3 Survival.
As to conditions which exist prior to the expiration or sooner
termination of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 4.5 shall survive

year after such expiration or termination.
Section 4.6 Title Encumbrances.
4.6.1 Existing Title Encumbrances.
Tenant hereby acknowledges and consents to all Existing Title
Encumbrances. All costs, expenses and charges which are imposed on the
Retirement Community under the Existing Title Encumbrances shall be a Property
Expense.
4.6.2 Future Title Encumbrances.
Title Encumbrances which are entered into, or become encumbrances on
the Retirement Community and/or the Leased Property, after the Commencement Date
shall be referred to in this Agreement as "Future Title Encumbrances." Landlord
agrees that it will give Tenant and Operator, if applicable, Notice of its
intention to execute any Future Title Encumbrances, such Notice to be reasonably
in advance of the execution thereof. Landlord covenants that, during the Term of
this Agreement, there will not be any Future Title Encumbrances materially
affecting the Leased Property or the Retirement Community, unless the Tenant and
the Operator, if applicable, have given prior written consent thereto, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by Tenant and/or Operator, if
applicable, if such Future Title Encumbrance: (i) would not impose any material
financial obligations on the Retirement Community; (ii) would not prohibit or
limit Tenant and/or the Operator, if applicable, from operating the Retirement
Community, including dining and other facilities customarily a part of or
related to a similar retirement community, in accordance with the industry
standards and the standards set forth in the Operating Agreement during the term
of the Operating Agreement; (iii) would not allow the Facility's facilities (for

during the term of the Operating Agreement, have given their prior written
consent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.6.2 to the payment of such
obligations as Property Expenses.
V. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS
Section 5.1 Maintenance and Repair.
5.1.1 Tenant's Obligations.
Tenant shall, or shall direct Operator to, at Tenant's sole cost and
expense (except as expressly provided in Sections 5.1.2 and 5.1.3(b) and
5.1.5(b)), keep, or direct Operator to keep, the Leased Property in good order
and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and shall, or shall direct
Operator to, promptly make all necessary and appropriate routine and preventive
maintenance, repairs and minor alterations, as Tenant and/or Operator, from time
to time deems necessary for such purposes. The phrase "routine maintenance,
repairs and minor alterations" as used in this Section 5.1.1 shall include only
those which are normally expensed under GAAP. For purposes of this Section 5.1.1
and except as provided in Section 5.1.2, the cost of routine maintenance,
repairs and minor alterations shall be borne by Tenant and funded by the
operations of the Leased Property (and not taken out of the Reserve). All
repairs shall be made in a good, workmanlike manner, consistent with industry
standards for like assisted living facilities in like locales, in accordance
with all applicable federal, state and local statutes, ordinances, by-laws,
codes, rules and regulations relating to any such work. Tenant's obligations
under this Section 5.1.1 shall be limited in the event of any casualty or
Condemnation as set forth in Articles X and XI and Tenant's obligations with
respect to Hazardous Substances are as set forth in Section 4.5.
5.1.2 Reserve.
(a) Tenant, or Operator at Tenant's direction, shall establish
an interest bearing reserve account (the "Reserve") in CNLBank or such other
bank designated by Tenant, or Operator at the direction of Tenant, and
reasonably approved by Landlord. All interest earned on the Reserve shall be
added to and remain a part of the Reserve. Except as set forth in Section
5.1.2(e), Tenant, or Operator if so required by the Operating Agreement or
designated by Tenant, shall be the only party entitled to withdraw funds from
the Reserve. The purpose of the Reserve is to cover the cost of:
(i) Replacements and renewals to the Facility's FF&E; and
(ii) Certain routine repairs and maintenance to the
Facility building (which are normally capitalized under GAAP) such as exterior
and interior repainting, resurfacing building walls, floors, roofs and parking
areas, and replacing folding walls and the like, but which are not Capital
Expenditures.
(b) Commencing with the Commencement Date and continuing
throughout the Term, Tenant shall transfer, or shall direct Operator to transfer
(as of the end of each Accounting Period of the Term), into the Reserve an
amount equal to the Applicable Percentage of Total Facility Revenues for such
Accounting Period.
(c) Tenant, or Operator at the direction of Tenant, shall
(endeavoring in good faith to comply with the applicable Reserve Estimate,
unless there has been a change in circumstance from time to time) make such
expenditures for the replacements, renewals, repairs, and maintenance described
in this Section 5.1.2, as Tenant, or Operator if the Operating Agreement is in
effect, deems necessary, up to the balance in the Reserve in order to maintain
the Retirement Community consistent with (i) industry standards if the Operating
Agreement is not in effect or (ii) the standards required by the Operating
Agreement if the Operating Agreement is in effect, and in conformity with Legal
Requirements. No expenditures will be made in excess of said balance without the
approval of Landlord. In addition, Tenant, or Operator at the direction of
Tenant, shall not, without Landlord's approval, make any expenditures from the
Reserve that, in the aggregate, exceed the total aggregate amount of
expenditures set forth in the then-applicable Reserve Estimate; provided,
however, that Tenant, or Operator at the direction of Tenant, shall be
authorized to take appropriate remedial action (including making any necessary
expenditures from the Reserve above the total aggregate amount set forth in the
then-applicable Reserve Estimate), without receiving Landlord's prior approval,
to remedy or respond to any of the Emergency Requirements (provided further that
Tenant, or Operator at the direction of Tenant, shall notify Landlord of any
such remedial action that requires more than a de minimus expenditure of funds
from the Reserve). At the end of each Fiscal Year, any amounts remaining in the
Reserve shall be carried forward to the next Fiscal Year. Proceeds from the sale
of FF&E no longer necessary to the operation of the Retirement Community shall
be deposited in the Reserve, as shall any interest which accrues on amounts
placed in the Reserve. Neither: (x) proceeds from the disposition of FF&E; nor
(y) interest which accrues on amounts held in the Reserve, shall result in any
reduction in the required Reserve payments or be included in Total Facility
Revenues. Upon a sale of the Retirement Community, funds in the Reserve will not
be affected, and all dispositions of such funds (both before and after such Sale
of the Retirement Community) will continue to be made exclusively pursuant to
the provisions of this Agreement or the Operating Agreement if applicable.
Tenant, or Operator at the direction of Tenant, is authorized to lease (rather
than purchase) shuttle vans, postal machines, photocopiers and other office
equipment. If Tenant, or Operator at the direction of Tenant, enters into a
lease described in the preceding sentence, Tenant, or Operator at the direction
of Tenant, shall give Landlord Notice of such lease either prior to or promptly
after entering into such lease. Lease payments with respect to such leases shall
be paid from the Reserve.
(d) Tenant, or Operator at the direction of Tenant, shall
prepare an estimate (the "Reserve Estimate") of Reserve expenditures anticipated
during the ensuing Fiscal Year and shall submit such Reserve Estimate to
Landlord. Tenant or Operator, as applicable, will endeavor to follow the
applicable FF&E Estimate, but shall be entitled to depart therefrom, in its
reasonable discretion, provided that: (A) such departures from the applicable
FF&E Estimate result from circumstances which could not reasonably have been
foreseen at the time of the submission of such FF&E Estimate; and (B) such
departures from the applicable FF&E Estimate result from circumstances which
require prompt repair and/or replacement or are necessary to comply with Legal
Requirements; and (C) Tenant or Operator, as applicable, has submitted to
Landlord a revised FF&E Estimate setting forth and explaining such departures.
(e) Tenant, or Operator at the direction of Tenant, shall from
time to time make expenditures from the Reserve as it deems necessary in
accordance with Section 5.1.2(a) and (c). Tenant, or Operator at Tenant's
direction, shall provide to Landlord, within twenty (20) days after the end of
each Accounting Period, a statement setting forth Reserve expenditures made to
date during the Fiscal Year. Expenditures from the Reserve shall not be subject
to Landlord's approval.
(f) All funds in the Reserve, all interest earned thereon and
all property purchased with funds from the Reserve shall be and remain the
property of Landlord and any such property purchased with funds from the Reserve
shall be part of the Leased Property and leased by Landlord to Tenant pursuant
to this Agreement. Following expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement
and payment in full on all contracts entered into prior to such expiration or
termination for work to be done or furniture, furnishings, fixtures and
equipment to be supplied in accordance with this Section 5.1.2 out of the
Reserve, Tenant's rights hereunder or under the Operating Agreement relating to
the Reserve shall be transferred from Tenant to Landlord, subject to the
provisions of the Operating Agreement if applicable.
(g) It is understood and agreed that during the term of the
Pooling Agreement, the Reserve pursuant to this Agreement shall (i) also serve
as the reserve, and be pooled with the Reserves, under the Other Leases in
accordance with the provisions of the Pooling Agreement, and (ii) include
amounts transferred to the Reserve under this Agreement and the Other Leases.
(h) If Landlord wishes to grant a security interest in or
create another encumbrance on the rights of Landlord with respect to the
Reserve, the instrument granting such security interest or creating such other
encumbrance shall expressly provide that such security interest or encumbrance
is subject to the rights of Tenant with respect to the Reserve as set forth
herein and the rights of the Operator pursuant to the Operating Agreement during
the term of the Operating Agreement. The form and substance of such provision
shall be subject to obtaining Tenant's prior written approval, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
5.1.3 Capital Expenditures.
(a) Tenant shall deliver, or shall cause Operator to deliver, to
Landlord, for Landlord's approval, an annual estimate (the "Building Estimate"),
that Tenant shall prepare, or cause the Operator to prepare during the term of
the Operating Agreement, of the reasonably foreseeable Capital Expenditures.
Landlord's consent shall not be required with respect to Capital Expenditures
("Required Capital Expenditures") (i) which are required by reason of any Legal
Requirement, or (ii) required under Operator's then current life-safety
standards, if applicable, (provided that, in order for any such life-safety
standards to be "required" within the meaning of this Section 5.1.3, such
standards must be part of the standards of the Operator of the Retirement
Community), or (iii) otherwise required for the continued safety of residents or
employees or prevention of material damage to property, including the removal of
Hazardous Substances, together with all contaminated soils and containers, and
to contain and prevent any further release or threat of release of Hazardous
Substances on or about the Leased Premises, in compliance with all Environmental
Laws, or (iv) required to obtain or maintain a material License, or (v) required
to be paid by Tenant pursuant to Section 8.03(E) of the Operating Agreement. If
Tenant (or Operator, if applicable) does not receive Notice of Landlord's
disapproval of the Building Estimate or any item therein, within thirty (30)
days after delivery of the Building Estimate to Landlord, then Landlord shall be
deemed to have approved the Building Estimate or such items, as applicable. In
the event Landlord disapproves the Building Estimate, Landlord's Notice shall
identify disputed items on a line item basis. Items not identified as disputed
in such Landlord's Notice shall be deemed approved by Landlord.
(b) In the event of (x) an emergency threatening the Retirement
Community, its residents, invitees or employees, or (y) the receipt by Tenant or
Operator, if applicable, of a governmental order or other Legal Requirement
regarding any Required Capital Expenditures, Tenant or Operator, acting on
Tenant's behalf, shall give Notice thereof to Landlord within five (5) Business
Days thereafter or sooner if circumstances reasonably warrant. Tenant, or
Operator acting on Tenant's behalf, shall then be authorized (but not obligated)
to take appropriate remedial action without receiving Landlord's prior consent
as follows: (i) in an emergency threatening the Retirement Community, its
residents, invitees or employees; or (ii) if the continuation of the given
condition could (in Tenant's or Operator's reasonable judgment) either (a)
subject Operator, Landlord and/or Tenant to either criminal or more than de
minimis civil liability, or (b) result in the suspension or revocation of a
material License and Tenant has either failed to remedy the situation or has
failed to take appropriate legal action to stay the effectiveness of any
applicable Legal Requirement. Tenant (and Operator, during the term of the
Operating Agreement) shall cooperate with Landlord in the pursuit of any such
action and shall have the right to participate therein. Landlord shall reimburse
Tenant and/or Operator, as applicable, for any costs incurred by Tenant and/or
Operator, as applicable, in connection with any such remedial action within
thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of Notice from Tenant and/or Operator,
as applicable, of the amount of such costs. Capital Expenditures made pursuant
to this Section 5.1.3(b) shall be deemed approved by Landlord.
(c) The cost of all approved, deemed approved or non-approvable
Capital Expenditures shall be borne by Landlord in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5.1.5(b) and shall increase the Minimum Rent as set forth
in Section 3.1.1.
5.1.4 Landlord Approval Rights During the Last Two Years of the
Term.
Except for expenditures required to remedy or respond to a Legal
Requirement or an Emergency Requirement, no expenditures, including expenditures
to be paid out of the Reserve, in excess of the Reserve shall be: (a) made by
Tenant, if the Operating Agreement is not in effect, without Landlord's prior
consent (i) during the last Fiscal Year of the Fixed Term, if Tenant elects,
pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.4 hereunder, not to extend the Term of
this Agreement beyond such Fixed Term, (ii) during the last Fiscal Year of the
first (1st) Extended Term of this Agreement if Tenant elects, pursuant to the
provisions of Section 2.4 hereunder, not to extend the Term beyond such first
(1st) Extended Term, and (iii) during the last two (2) Fiscal Years of the
second (2nd) Extended Term of this Agreement; or (b) made by Operator if the
Operating Agreement is in effect without Landlord's prior consent (i) during the
last Fiscal Year of the Initial Term (as such term is defined in the Operating
Agreement) of the Operating Agreement if Operator elects pursuant to the
provisions of Section 4.01 of the Operating Agreement, not to extend the term of
the Operating Agreement beyond such Initial Term, (ii) during the last Fiscal
Year of the first (1st) Extended Term (as such term is defined in the Operating
Agreement) of the Operating Agreement if Operator elects, pursuant to the
provisions of Section 4.01 of the Operating Agreement, not to extend the term of
the Operating Agreement beyond such first (1st) Extended Term, and (iii) during
the last two (2) Fiscal Years of the second (2nd) Extended Term (as such term is
defined in the Operating Agreement) of the Operating Agreement.
5.1.5 Landlord's Funding Obligations.
(a) Landlord shall not, under any circumstances, be required to
build or rebuild any improvement on the Leased Property, or to make any repairs,
replacements, alterations, restorations or renewals of any nature or description
to the Leased Property, whether ordinary or extraordinary, structural or
nonstructural, foreseen or unforeseen, to maintain the Leased Property in any
way, or, except as provided in Section 5.1.5(b), to make any expenditure
whatsoever with respect thereto. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, Tenant for itself and any Person claiming by, through or under
Tenant, including Operator, hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by
law, the right to make repairs at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law in
effect on the date hereof or hereafter enacted. Landlord shall have the right to
give, record and post, as appropriate, notices of non-responsibility under any
mechanic's lien laws now or hereafter existing.
(b) If, at any time, (i) funds in the Reserve shall be
insufficient or are reasonably projected by Tenant or Operator, acting on behalf
of Tenant, to be insufficient for necessary and permitted expenditures thereof,
or (ii) funding is necessary for approved, deemed approved or non-approvable
Capital Expenditures (other than costs related to Hazardous Substances under
Section 4.5 resulting from Tenant's gross negligence or willful misconduct (or
that of any Person claiming by, through or under Tenant, including Operator, if
applicable), which costs shall be Tenant's sole cost and expense) or (iii)
funding is necessary pursuant to Section 4.5.1(d) and/or 4.5.1(e), then Tenant
or Operator, as applicable, may, at its election, give Landlord Notice thereof,
which Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the required
or permitted action and the estimated cost thereof. Landlord shall, within ten
(10) Business Days after such Notice, or such later dates as Tenant or Operator,
as applicable, may direct, disburse such required funds to Tenant (or, if Tenant
shall so elect, directly to the Operator or any other Person performing the
required work) and, upon such disbursement, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted
as provided in Section 3.1.1(b); provided, however, that if the disbursement of
funds relates to the Hazardous Substances under Section 4.3 resulting from
Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct, there shall be no adjustment
to the Minimum Rent. If Landlord disputes its obligation to disburse such funds,
it shall give Operator and Tenant Notice of such dispute within such ten (10)
Business Day period, and failure to give Operator and Tenant Notice of such
dispute shall be deemed a waiver of any right to dispute Landlord's obligation
to disburse such funds. To the extent reasonably possible, Landlord shall
identify disputed items on a line item basis. In no event shall Landlord be
entitled to dispute the request for funds for any expenditure which was approved
or deemed approved pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.1.3(a) and (b).
5.1.6 Non-responsibility of Landlord, Etc.
All materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics and laborers and
other persons contracting with Tenant with respect to the Leased Property, or
any part thereof, are hereby charged with notice that liens on the Leased
Property or on Landlord's interest therein are expressly prohibited and that
they must look solely to Tenant to secure payment for any work done or material
furnished by Tenant or for any other purpose during the term of this Agreement.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed in any way as
constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by
inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialmen
for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials for any
alteration, addition, improvement or repair to the Leased Property or any part
thereof or as giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract for or
permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that
would give rise to the filing of any lien against the Leased Property or any
part thereof nor to subject Landlord's estate in the Leased Property or any part
thereof to liability under any Mechanic's Lien Law of the State in any way, it
being expressly understood Landlord's estate shall not be subject to any such
liability.

request from time to time, provided that the form and substance thereof shall be
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant, or Operator at the direction of
Tenant, shall prepare and deliver to Landlord all such lease documents for which
Landlord's execution is necessary and Landlord shall promptly, upon approval

VIII. PERMITTED CONTESTS
Tenant, or Operator while the Operating Agreement is in effect, shall
have the right to contest the amount or validity of any Imposition, Legal
Requirement, Insurance Requirement, Environmental Obligation, lien (excluding
any Landlord Liens), attachment, levy, encumbrance, charge or claim
(collectively, "Claims") as to the Leased Property, by appropriate legal
proceedings, conducted in good faith and with due diligence, provided that (a)
the foregoing shall in no way be construed as relieving, modifying or extending
Tenant's obligation to pay any Claims required hereunder to be paid by Tenant as
finally determined, (b) such contest shall not cause Landlord or Tenant to be in
default under any mortgage, deed of trust or other agreement encumbering the
Leased Property or any part thereof (Landlord agreeing that any such mortgage,
deed of trust or other agreement shall permit Tenant to exercise the rights
granted pursuant to this Article VIII) or any interest therein or result in a
lien attaching to the Leased Property, unless such lien is fully bonded or is
otherwise secured to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord, and (c) no part of
the Leased Property nor any Rent therefrom shall be in any immediate danger of
sale, forfeiture, attachment or loss, and (d) Tenant hereby indemnifies and
holds harmless Landlord from and against any cost, claim, damage, penalty or
reasonable expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees and paralegals' fees,
incurred by Landlord in connection therewith or as a result thereof (except to
the extent that such cost, claim, damage, penalty or reasonable expense,
including reasonable attorneys' fees and paralegals' fees, incurred by Landlord
results from the exercise by Operator of its rights to contest such Claims under
the Operating Agreement, if applicable). Landlord agrees to join in any such
proceedings if required legally to prosecute such contest, provided that
Landlord shall not thereby be subjected to any liability therefor (including,
without limitation, for the payment of any costs or expenses in connection
therewith) unless Tenant agrees to assume and indemnify Landlord with respect to
the same. Tenant shall be entitled to any refund of any Claims and such charges
and penalties or interest thereon which have been paid by Tenant or paid by
Landlord to the extent that Landlord has been reimbursed by Tenant. If Tenant
shall fail (x) to pay or cause to be paid any Claims when finally determined,
(y) to provide reasonable security therefor, or (z) to prosecute or cause to be
prosecuted any such contest diligently and in good faith, Landlord may, upon
Notice to Tenant, pay such charges, together with interest and penalties due
with respect thereto, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor, upon demand,
as Additional Charges.
IX. INSURANCE
Section 9.1 General Insurance Requirements.
Tenant shall, at all times during the Term and at any other time Tenant
shall be in possession of the Leased Property, keep or cause Operator to keep
the Leased Property and all property located therein or thereon, insured against
the risks and in the amounts as follows:
(a) Property insurance, including boiler and machinery coverage,
on the Retirement Community building(s) and contents including, but not limited
to coverage for signs, awnings, canopies, gazebos, fences and retaining walls
against loss or damage by fire, lightning, windstorm, sprinkler leakage, water
damage, vandalism, malicious mischief and other hazards generally included under
extended coverage and all other risks as commonly covered by an "all-risk of
physical loss" policy of insurance, in an amount not less than the full
replacement cost (less excavation and foundation costs) of the Retirement
Community buildings and contents and law and ordinance coverage in an amount
equal to ten percent (10%) of the replacement value or One Million Dollars
($1,000,000) whichever is greater;
(b) Business interruption insurance including extra expense
covering at least one (1) year loss of profits, necessary continuing expenses,
and Rent, for interruptions at the Retirement Community caused by any occurrence
covered by the insurance referred to in Section 9.1(a) above, and 9.1(c) and
9.1(d) below to the extent available at commercially reasonable terms;
(c) Flood insurance, if the Retirement Community is located in
whole or in part within an area identified as having a special flood hazard
under the National Flood Insurance Program in commercially reasonable amounts;
(d) If the Retirement Community is located in an "earthquake prone
zone" as reasonably determined by Landlord and Tenant (or Operator during the
term of the Operating Agreement), Tenant, or during the term of the Operating
Agreement, Operator, on Tenant's behalf, shall maintain coverage for loss or
damage caused by earthquake, but only to the extent that the same is available
on commercially reasonable terms (for example, Tenant or Operator on Tenant's
behalf, shall not be required to carry earthquake insurance if coverage is
completely unavailable or if the cost is unreasonable) and Tenant and Operator,
if applicable, shall provide Landlord with prompt Notice of unavailability or
material restriction of earthquake coverage. Tenant, or Operator on Tenant's
behalf, may provide such earthquake insurance through a blanket insurance
program with limits adequate to protect the regional aggregate probable maximum
loss for all properties in the applicable region in which the Retirement
Community is located under the blanket program and Tenant, or Operator on
Tenant's behalf, shall provide written Notice to Landlord if actual losses meet
or exceed such limits. In the event that Landlord and Tenant or Operator, if the
Operating Agreement is in effect, shall fail to agree if the Retirement
Community is located in an "earthquake prone zone" the issue shall be promptly
referred to EQE International, Inc. for its determination, which shall be
binding on Tenant, Landlord and Operator. Tenant, Landlord and Operator, as
applicable, agree that if EQE International, Inc. is not available or willing to
make such determination, Landlord and Tenant or Operator, if the Operating
Agreement is in effect, shall select another recognized earthquake analysis
company to make such termination;
(e) Such other property insurance as is customarily maintained by
Operator at similar retirement communities;
(f) Such additional insurance as may be reasonably required from
time to time, by (A) Existing Title Encumbrances in effect on the date hereof
and any Future Title Encumbrances, approved in writing by Tenant, or Operator on
Tenant's behalf, or (B) a Facility Mortgagee approved or permitted pursuant to
Article XIX hereof and approved in writing by Operator if the Operating
Agreement is in effect provided the same is customarily carried by a majority of
comparable high quality retirement communities in the area;
(g) Commercial general liability insurance against claims for
bodily injury, death or property damage, fire, legal liability, and if
applicable liquor liability occurring on, in or in conjunction with the
operations of the Retirement Community, and automobile liability insurance on
owned, non-owned and hired vehicles operated in conjunction with the Retirement
Community, with limits of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per
occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) per location aggregate;
(h) Umbrella/Excess liability against claims for damages covered
under the commercial general liability, automobile liability, liquor liability,
if applicable, and employer's liability with limits of not less than $50,000,000
per occurrence;
(i) Workers' compensation coverage as may be required under
applicable laws covering all of Operator's employees at the Retirement
Community, and employer's liability insurance of not less than One Million
Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per accident/disease;
(j) Fidelity bond coverage in an amount not less than Two Million
Dollars ($2,000,000.00) covering Operator at the Retirement Community;

Operator's employees at the Retirement Community, to the extent available at
commercially reasonable rates and terms, in an amount not less than One Million
Dollars ($1,000,000);
(l) To the extent applicable, garage keepers legal liability
covering both comprehensive and collision-type losses with a limit of liability
of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence;
(m) Professional liability insurance to cover the professional
medical care providers employed by the Operator at the Retirement Community. If
the professional liability insurance is written on a claims-made basis, and if
the existing primary policies are canceled and non-renewed or canceled and
rewritten, an Extended Period of Discovery coverage shall be purchased for the
existing policy for not less than one (1) year; and
(n) Such other insurance in amounts as Operator, or Landlord if
the Operating Agreement is not in effect, in its reasonable judgment, deems
advisable for protection against claims, liabilities and losses arising out of
or connected with the operation of the Retirement Community.
Section 9.2 General Insurance Provisions.
(a) All insurance described in Section 9.1 may be obtained through
blanket insurance programs, provided that such blanket programs substantially
fulfill the requirements specified herein. The blanket insurance programs may
include deductibles or risk retention levels; however, the Retirement
Community's responsibility for such deductibles or risk retention levels shall
be limited to the Insurance Retention as defined in Section 9.3(c). The
Retirement Community's allocated Insurance Retention for general liability
insurance and workers' compensation insurance shall not exceed One Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($100,000) unless such greater amount is agreeable to both
Landlord and Tenant. The Retirement Community's property insurance deductible
shall not exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) unless such
greater amount is agreeable to both Landlord and Tenant, or if a higher
deductible for high hazard risks (i.e., earthquake, wind or flood) is mandated
by the insurance carrier.
(b) All insurance described in Section 9.1 shall be carried in the
name of Tenant or Operator if the Operating Agreement is in effect. The
insurance required under Section 9.1 shall include Landlord and Tenant and any
Facility Mortgagees specified by Landlord, in writing, as additional insureds,
mortgagee or loss payee as their interest may appear, as applicable. Any
property losses covered by insurance obtained pursuant to Section 9.1 shall be
payable to the respective parties as their interests may appear. Any Facility
Mortgage on the Retirement Community shall contain provisions to the effect that
proceeds of the Section 9.1(a) through Section 9.1(c) insurance shall be
available for repair and restoration of the Retirement Community. With respect
to the Retirement Community, all insurance policies pursuant to Section 9.1
shall provide that the coverage shall be primary and any insurance carried by
any additional insured shall be excess and non-contributory.
(c) Tenant or Operator if the Operating Agreement is in effect,
upon request, shall deliver to Landlord certificates of insurance evidencing the
insurance coverages required under Section 9.1 and any renewals thereof. All
such certificates of insurance shall, to the extent obtainable, state that the
insurance shall not be canceled or materially reduced without at least thirty
(30) days' prior written notice to the certificate holder. Excluding workers'
compensation and earthquake coverage, all insurance policies pursuant to this
Article IX, shall be issued by insurance carrier having an AM Best rating of at
least A-, VII and all excess insurance policies above Twenty-Five Million
Dollars ($25,000,000) shall be issued by insurance carriers having an AM Best
rating of at least B+, VII. All such insurance shall be evaluated by Tenant or
Operator if the Operating Agreement is in effect from time to time to ensure
that the limits and coverages are adequate.
(d) The parties agree that the insurance coverages and deductibles
maintained by Tenant or Operator if the Operating Agreement is in effect
pursuant to this Article IX shall be adjusted throughout the Term in accordance
with Tenant's or Operator's standard insurance policies, as applicable which
shall be consistent with industry standards for similar facilities.
Section 9.3 Costs and Expenses.
(a) With respect to Section 9.1, all insurance premiums, costs and
other expenses, including any Insurance Retention (as defined below), shall be
treated as an Imposition. All charges under the blanket programs shall be
allocated to the Retirement Community and other similar participating retirement
communities on a reasonable basis. Any losses and associated costs and expenses,
that are uninsured shall be treated as a cost of insurance and shall also be
treated as an Imposition.
(b) Upon termination of the Operating Agreement while this
Agreement is in effect, a reserve in an amount determined by Operator based on
loss projections, shall be established from Total Facility Revenues to cover the
amount of any Insurance Retention and all other costs and expenses that will
eventually have to be paid by either Tenant or Operator, as applicable, with
respect to pending or contingent claims, including those that arise after the
termination of this Agreement for causes arising during the Term. If Total
Facility Revenues are insufficient to meet the requirements of such reserve,
Landlord shall deliver to Operator within ten (10) days after receipt of Tenant
or Operator's written request thereof, the sums necessary to establish such
reserve; and if Landlord fails to timely deliver such sums to Operator, Operator
shall have the right (without affecting Operator's other remedies under the
Operating Agreement) to withdraw the amount of such expenses from the operating
accounts of the Retirement Community, the FF&E Reserve, the Working Capital
funds or any other funds of Tenant or Landlord, as applicable, held by or under
the control of Tenant or Operator.
(c) "Insurance Retention" shall mean the insurance policy
deductible; however, for any insurance obtained through the blanket insurance
programs, "Insurance Retention" shall mean the Retirement Community's per
occurrence limit for any loss or reserve as established for the Retirement
Community, which limit shall be the same as is applied to other similar
retirement communities participating in the blanket insurance programs, or such
higher amount if mandated by the insurer for high hazard risks such as
earthquake, flood and wind.
Section 9.4 Indemnification of Landlord.
Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord (and any officer,
director, employee, advisor, partner or shareholder of Landlord) in respect of,
and, at Landlord's request, shall defend any action, cause of action, suit,
debt, cost, expense (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees),
claim or demand whatsoever brought or asserted by any third person whomsoever,
at law or in equity, arising by reason of: (i) liabilities stemming from general
corporate matters of Tenant or its Affiliates, to the extent the same are not
directly and primarily related to the Retirement Community; (ii) infringement
and other claims relating to the Tenant's use of the proprietary marks of
Landlord; (iii) if Tenant fails to maintain, if the Operating Agreement is not
in effect, or if the Operating Agreement is in effect, fails to use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause Operator to maintain, insurance coverage that it is
required to maintain pursuant to this Agreement, the excess of the amount of any
liability or loss that would have been covered over the amount of any applicable
deductible; and (iv) the bad faith or willful misconduct of Tenant or its
Affiliates, or any of their employees, servants or agents or other persons for
whom they are responsible, result in a claim for bodily injury, death or
property damage occurring on, in or in conjunction with the business of the
Retirement Community, to the extent that such claim exceeds the insurance
proceeds (including Insurance Retention) which are available to pay such claim.
Section 9.5 Indemnification of Tenant
If the Operating Agreement is in effect, Landlord will defend,
indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from and against any claims, losses,
expenses, costs, suits, actions, proceedings, damages, demands or liabilities
(including, without limitation, engineers' and attorneys' fees and expenses, and
costs of litigation) that are asserted against or sustained or incurred by
Tenant pursuant to Section 19.19.B of the Operating Agreement and arising under
or in connection with (i) Landlord's breach hereunder, or (ii) the Tenant's
performance or failure to perform any acts in good faith reliance on the written
instruction of the Expert or Landlord to the extent that such claim exceeds the
insurance proceeds (including Insurance Retentions) which are available to pay
such claim; provided, however, that any such action or claim shall not have
arisen by reason of any matter for which Tenant is responsible for providing
indemnification to Landlord pursuant to Section 9.4 hereof.
Section 9.6 Limitation on Liability.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, no shareholder,
director, officer or employee of any party to this Agreement shall have any
personal liability with respect to the liabilities or obligations of such party
hereunder.
X. CASUALTY
Section 10.1 Damage and Repair.
If, during the Term, the Retirement Community is damaged by a Minor
Casualty, Tenant, or Operator if the Operating Agreement is in effect, shall
with all reasonable diligence (i) proceed to process the claim with the
applicable insurance carriers, including settling such claim, and to make the
necessary arrangements with appropriate contractors and suppliers to repair
and/or replace the damaged portion of the Facility and (ii) perform Operator's
obligations with respect to such Minor Casualty pursuant to Section 15.01 of the
Operating Agreement.
If, during the Term, the Facility suffers a Total Casualty, this
Agreement shall be terminable at the option of either party upon ninety (90)
days' written notice to the other party. Such notice must be sent within thirty
(30) days after the date of the Total Casualty.
If, during the Term, the Facility is damaged by fire, casualty or other
cause to a greater extent than a Minor Casualty, but not to the extent of a
Total Casualty, or if the Facility suffers a Total Casualty but neither party
elects to terminate under Section 10.1, Landlord shall, at its cost and expense
and with all reasonable diligence, repair and/or replace the damaged portion of
the Facility to the same condition as existed previously. Tenant shall have the
right to discontinue operating the Facility to the extent it deems necessary to
comply with applicable Legal Requirements or as necessary for the safe and
orderly operation of the Facility. To the extent available, casualty insurance
proceeds shall be applied to such repairs and/or replacements. If Landlord fails
to so promptly commence and complete the repair and/or replacement of the
Facility so that it shall be substantially the same as it was prior to such
damage or destruction, such failure shall be a Landlord Default by Landlord. The
parties agree that Landlord's obligations to repair and/or replace pursuant to
the provisions of this Section 10.1 shall be limited to the extent of available
casualty insurance proceeds (plus the amount of any applicable deductibles). The
parties further agree that if Landlord is obligated to utilize such available
casualty insurance proceeds to repay any obligations pursuant to any mortgage,
then Landlord shall be entitled to an equitable extension of time (in which
Landlord has to fulfill its obligations pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 10.1) sufficient to allow Landlord to obtain the necessary funding to
replace such spent casualty insurance proceeds and to make the repairs and/or
replacements required hereunder. The parties further agree that Landlord's
obligations to repair and/or replace pursuant to the provisions of this Section
10.1 shall be subject to Landlord's ability to obtain such entitlements and/or
other governmental approvals as may be necessary to undertake such repair and/or
replacement; provided that Landlord shall undertake good faith efforts to obtain
such entitlements and/or approvals.
10.1.1 Insufficient Insurance Proceeds.
If the cost of the repair or restoration of the Leased Property exceeds
the sum of the deductible and the amount of casualty insurance proceeds received
by Landlord pursuant to Section 9.1 (other than Section 9.1(c)), Landlord shall
give Tenant and Operator, if applicable, Notice thereof, within sixty (60) days
after notice of such deficiency, which Notice shall set forth in reasonable
detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Landlord shall pay and assume
the amount of such deficiency (Landlord having no obligation to do so, except
that, if Landlord shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall
become an irrevocable obligation of Landlord pursuant to this Agreement). If
Landlord elects to make such deficiency available for restoration, the Minimum
Rent shall be adjusted by the amount of the same as provided in Section
3.1.1(b). In the event that Landlord does not elect to make such deficiency
available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this
Agreement by Notice to the other, whereupon, this Agreement shall terminate as
provided in Section 10.1. It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that,
notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Landlord shall be
solely responsible for the amount of any deductible.
Section 10.2 Tenant's Property.
All insurance proceeds payable by reason of any loss of or damage to
any of Tenant's Personal Property shall be paid solely to Landlord and, to the
extent necessary to repair or replace Tenant's Personal Property in accordance
with Section 10.3, Landlord shall hold such proceeds in trust to pay the cost of
repairing or replacing damaged Tenant's Personal Property. If after paying the
costs associated with replacing and repairing Tenant's Personal Property in
accordance with Section 10.3 any insurance proceeds remain, Landlord shall pay
such remaining proceeds to Tenant.
Section 10.3 Restoration of Tenant's Property.
If Landlord is required to restore the Leased Property as hereinabove
provided, Landlord shall either (i) restore all alterations and improvements
made by Tenant and Tenant's Personal Property, or (ii) replace such alterations
and improvements and Tenant's Personal Property with improvements or items of
the same or better quality and utility in the operation of the Leased Property.
Section 10.4 No Abatement of Rent.
Subject to the provisions set forth in Section 10.1 and 10.1.1, this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant's obligation to make
all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under
this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any damage
involving the Leased Property (provided that Landlord shall credit against such
payments any amounts paid to Landlord as a consequence of such damage under any
business interruption insurance obtained by Tenant hereunder). The provisions of
this Article X shall be considered an express agreement governing any cause of
damage or destruction to the Leased Property and, to the maximum extent
permitted by Applicable Laws, no Applicable Laws in effect during the Term which
provide for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.
Section 10.5 Waiver.
Tenant hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable
Laws, any statutory rights of termination which may arise by reason of any
damage or destruction of the Leased Property.
XI. CONDEMNATION
Section 11.1 Total Condemnation, Etc.
In the event all or substantially all of the Facility shall be taken in
any Condemnation or in the event a portion of the Facility shall be so taken,
but the result is that it is unreasonable to continue to operate the Facility in
accordance with the standards required by this Agreement, this Agreement shall
terminate effective as of the date of such taking or similar proceeding.
Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right to initiate such proceedings as
they deem advisable to recover any Award to which they may be entitled.
Section 11.2 Partial Condemnation.
In the event a portion of the Facility shall be taken by Condemnation
or the entire Facility is affected but on a temporary basis, and the result is
not to make it unreasonable to continue to operate the Facility, this Agreement
shall not terminate. However, so much of any Award for any such partial taking
or condemnation as shall be necessary to render the Facility equivalent to its
condition prior to such event shall be used by Tenant, or Operator if the
Operating Agreement is in effect, for such purpose; and Tenant shall have the
right to discontinue operating the Facility or portion of the Facility to the
extent it deems necessary for the safe and orderly operation of the Facility.
Section 11.3 Disbursement of Award.
In the event of any proceeding described in Section 11.1 or 11.2, the
Landlord shall receive any Award subject to the provisions of Section 15.02 of
the Operating Agreement. For this purpose, any Award received by any mortgagee
shall be deemed to be an Award received by Landlord.
Section 11.4 Abatement of Rent.
Other than as specifically provided in this Agreement, this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant's obligation to make all
payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this
Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any Condemnation
involving the Leased Property. The provisions of this Article XI shall be
considered an express agreement governing any Condemnation involving the Leased
Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no Applicable Laws in
effect during the Term which provide for such a contingency shall have any
application in such case.
XII. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
Section 12.1 Events of Default.
The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall
constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder:
(a) should Tenant fail to make any payment of Minimum Rent or
Percentage Rent within three (3) Business Days after Notice thereof from
Landlord to Tenant, or fail to make payment of any other Rent or any other sum
(including, but not limited to, funding of the Reserve), payable hereunder when
due and such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after Notice
thereof from Landlord to Tenant; or
(b) should Tenant fail to maintain the insurance coverage required
under Article IX and such failure shall continue for three (3) Business Days
after Notice thereof; or
(c) subject to Article VIII relating to permitted contests, should

covenants or agreements contained herein to be performed or observed by it
(other than as specified in clauses (a) and (b) above) and such default shall
continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord to
Tenant; provided, however, that if such default is susceptible of cure but such
cure cannot be accomplished with commercially reasonable efforts within such
period of time and if, in addition, Tenant commences to cure or cause to be
cured such default within thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord
and thereafter prosecutes the curing of such default with commercially
reasonable efforts, such period of time shall be extended to such period of time
(not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) as may be necessary to cure such
default with commercially reasonable efforts; or
(d) should Tenant generally not be paying its debts as they become
due or should Tenant make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or
(e) should any petition be filed by or against Tenant under the
Federal bankruptcy laws, or should any other proceeding be instituted by or
against Tenant seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking
liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of it or its
debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or
relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the
appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for
Tenant or for any substantial part of the property of Tenant and such proceeding
is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after institution thereof, or should
Tenant take any action to authorize any of the actions set forth above in this
paragraph; or
(f) should Tenant cause or institute any proceeding for its
dissolution or termination; or
(g) should an event of default occur and be continuing under any
mortgage or deed of trust which is secured by Tenant's leasehold interest
hereunder or should the mortgagee under any such mortgage accelerate the
indebtedness secured thereby or commence a foreclosure action in connection with
said mortgage and such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days
after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if such
default is susceptible of cure but such cure cannot be accomplished with due
diligence within such period of time and if, in addition, Tenant commences to
cure or cause to be cured such default within fifteen (15) days after Notice
thereof from Landlord and thereafter prosecutes the curing of such default with
all due diligence, such period of time shall be extended to such period of time
as may be necessary to cure such default with all due diligence; or
(h) unless Tenant shall be contesting such lien or attachment in
good faith in accordance with Article VIII, should the estate or interest of
Tenant in the Leased Property or any part thereof be levied upon or attached in
any proceeding and the same shall not be vacated, discharged or fully bonded or
otherwise secured to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord within the later of
(x) one hundred and twenty (120) days after such attachment or levy, unless the
amount in dispute is less than $500,000 (as adjusted each year by increases in
the GDP Deflator), in which case Tenant shall give Notice to Landlord of the
dispute but Tenant may defend in any suitable way, and (y) thirty (30) days
after receipt by Tenant of Notice thereof from Landlord; it being understood and
agreed that Tenant may commence a contest of such matter pursuant to Article
VIII above following such Notice from Landlord; or
(i) should Tenant, its successors and assigns, cause an "Event of
Default" as defined in each of the Other Leases with respect to any of the Other
Leases; or
(j) should Tenant be in default under the Operating Agreement or
Owner Agreement beyond any applicable cure period.
Then, and in any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies
available to it, may terminate this Agreement by giving Notice thereof to Tenant
and upon the expiration of the time fixed in such Notice but in any event not
less than seventy-five (75) days, this Agreement shall terminate and all rights
of Tenant under this Agreement shall cease. Landlord shall have and may exercise
all rights and remedies available at law and in equity to Landlord as a result
of Tenant's breach of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the right
of re-entry upon the Leased Property upon and at any time after the occurrence
of an Event of Default.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.1, Landlord
and Tenant agree that (i) if, and to the extent that, the Tenant's default under
this Agreement or the Operating Agreement is caused by a default of the Landlord
(or one of its Affiliates) pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the
Owner Agreement or the surviving provisions of the Purchase Contract, or the
failure of Marriott or Operator to fund amounts required to be advanced by
Marriott and Operator pursuant to the Threshold Guaranty, then such default
under this Agreement or the Operating Agreement shall not be considered a
Default hereunder, and (ii) if, and to the extent that, the Tenant's default
under this Agreement is caused by a default of the Operator under the Operating
Agreement, the Owner Agreement or the Pooling Agreement, then such default shall
not be considered a default hereunder, but Tenant agrees to exercise such rights
and remedies of Tenant under the Operating Agreement as Landlord may reasonably
request provided that all reasonable costs and expenses thereof are paid by
Landlord.
During the term of the Operating Agreement, Landlord hereby agrees not
to take any action or inaction that would cause Tenant to be in default under
the terms of the Operating Agreement.
During the term of the Operating Agreement, Landlord hereby agrees and
consents to any cure of any Default or Event of Default tendered or performed by
Operator or Marriott or any Affiliate of Operator or Marriott within the same
cure period afforded to Tenant herein.
Section 12.2 Remedies.
None of (a) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1,
(b) the repossession of the Leased Property or any portion thereof, (c) the
failure of Landlord to re-let the Leased Property or any portion thereof, nor
(d) the re-letting of all or any portion of the Leased Property, shall relieve
Tenant of its liability and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive
any such termination, repossession or re-letting. In the event of any such
termination, repossession or re-letting, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord
all Rent due and payable with respect to the Leased Property through and
including the date of such termination, repossession or re-letting. Thereafter,
Tenant, until the end of what would have been the Term of this Agreement
(assuming no extension beyond the then-current Term) in the absence of such
termination, repossession or re-letting, and whether or not the Leased Property
or any portion thereof shall have been re-let, shall be liable to Landlord for,
and shall pay to Landlord, as current damages, the Rent and other charges which
would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the Term had such termination,
repossession or re-letting not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any
re-letting of the Leased Property or any other operation of the Leased Property
by Landlord (if Landlord repossesses the Leased Property), after deducting all
reasonable expenses in connection with such re-letting or operation, as
applicable, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage
commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees, advertising, expenses of
employees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such re-letting
(such expenses being hereinafter referred to as the "Re-letting Expenses").
Tenant shall pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which
the Minimum Rent would have been payable hereunder if this Agreement had not
been so terminated with respect to such of the Leased Property.
At any time after such termination, repossession or re-letting, in
addition to Landlord's right to receive any Rent owing and due up to and
including the date of termination, repossession or re-letting under the
preceding paragraph, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at Landlord's election, as
liquidated final damages incurred beyond the date of such termination,
repossession or re-letting and in lieu of Landlord's right to receive any
further damages due to the such termination, repossession or re-letting, the
Re-letting Expenses incurred to date (and not theretofore paid by Tenant or
deducted by Landlord as set forth herein) and an amount equal to the present
value (discounted at the Interest Rate) of the excess, if any, of the Rent and
other charges which would be payable hereunder from the date of such
termination, repossession or re-letting (assuming that, for the purposes of this
paragraph, annual payments by Tenant on account of Impositions and Percentage
Rent would be the same as payments required for the immediately preceding
thirteen Accounting Periods, or if less than thirteen Accounting Periods have
expired since the Commencement Date, the payments required for such lesser
period projected to an annual amount) for what would be the then unexpired Term
of this Agreement (assuming no extension beyond the then-current Term) if the
same remained in effect, over the fair market rental for the same period, but
excluding any period after the date of such termination, repossession or
re-letting for which amounts have become payable by Tenant under the first
paragraph of this Section 12.2. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall,
however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain in
proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency an amount equal to the maximum allowed
by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the
proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount be
greater than, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred
to above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages which may be incurred in connection
with this Article XII.
In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration or dispossession
by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (a) re-let the Leased Property
or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a
term or terms which may at Landlord's option, be equal to, less than or exceed
the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and
may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers
advisable and necessary to re-let the same, and (b) may make such reasonable
alterations, repairs and decorations in the Leased Property or any portion
thereof as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, considers advisable
and necessary for the purpose of re-letting the Leased Property; and the making
of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not operate or be construed
to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid. Subject to the last
sentence of this paragraph, Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way
whatsoever for any failure to re-let all or any portion of the Leased Property,
or, in the event that the Leased Property is re-let, for failure to collect the
rent under such re-letting. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant
hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any
present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, or
in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Leased Property, by reason
of the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default hereunder. Landlord
covenants and agrees, in the event of any such termination, repossession or
re-letting as a result of an Event of Default, to use reasonable efforts to
mitigate its damages.
Section 12.3 Waiver of Jury Trial.
Landlord and Tenant hereby waive, to the maximum extent permitted by
Applicable Laws, trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought
by either of the parties hereto against the other or in respect of any matter
whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this Agreement, the
relationship of Landlord and Tenant hereunder, Tenant's occupancy of the Leased
Property, and/or any claim for injury or damage.
Section 12.4 Application of Funds.
Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this
Agreement during the existence or continuance of any Event of Default (and any
payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Event of
Default) shall be applied to Tenant's current and past due obligations under
this Agreement in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be prescribed
by the laws of the State.
Section 12.5 Landlord's Right to Cure Tenant's Default.
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord,
after Notice to Tenant (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall
reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or
property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without
waiving or releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to),
at any time thereafter, make such payment or perform such act for the account
and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law,
enter upon the Leased Property or any portion thereof for such purpose and take
all such action thereon as, in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, may be
necessary or appropriate therefor. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of
Tenant. All reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees and paralegals' fees) incurred by Landlord in
connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by
Applicable Laws) at the Overdue Rate from the date such sums are paid by
Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.
Section 12.6 Good Faith Dispute.
If Tenant shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Default and
Tenant, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice
thereof to Landlord, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor
and, provided Tenant shall escrow disputed amounts, if any, pursuant to an
escrow arrangement reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, no Event of
Default shall be deemed to have occurred; provided, however, that in the event
of any eventual adverse determination, Tenant shall pay to Landlord interest on
any disputed funds at the Disbursement Rate, from the date demand for such funds
was made by Landlord until the date of final adverse determination and,
thereafter, at the Overdue Rate until paid.
XIII. HOLDING OVER
Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner termination
of this Agreement shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rate
equal to one and one-half (1.50) times the Rent and other charges herein
provided (prorated on a daily basis). Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all
damages (direct or indirect) sustained by reason of any such holding over.
Otherwise, such holding over shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, to the extent applicable. Nothing contained herein shall
constitute the consent, express or implied, of Landlord to the holding over of
Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
XIV. LANDLORD'S NOTICE OBLIGATIONS; LANDLORD DEFAULT
Section 14.1 Landlord Notice Obligation.
Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant and Operator of any
materially adverse matters affecting the Leased Property of which Landlord
receives written Notice or actual, conscious, present knowledge and, to the
extent Tenant otherwise has no notice or actual knowledge thereof. Landlord
shall be liable for any liabilities, costs, damages or claims (including
reasonable attorney fees) arising from failure to deliver such Notice to Tenant.
Subject to Article XIX, Landlord shall not enter into or amend any agreement
directly affecting the operation of Leased Property without Tenant's prior
written consent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed. As used in this Agreement, "Landlord's knowledge" or words of similar
import shall mean the actual (and not constructive or imputed), conscious,
present knowledge, without independent investigation or inquiry of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇. or ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ or any subsequent officer or employee of Landlord, or
any Affiliate as to Landlord, having direct oversight responsibility for the
transactions contemplated in this Agreement.
Section 14.2 Landlord's Default.
Subject to Landlord's right to dispute its obligation in accordance
with Section 5.1.5(b), if Landlord shall default in the performance or
observance of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement,
and any such default shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after Notice
thereof with respect to monetary defaults, and thirty (30) days after Notice
thereof with respect to non-monetary defaults, from Tenant to Landlord and,
subject to Section 19.3, any applicable Facility Mortgagee, or such additional
period as may be reasonably required to correct such non-monetary defaults,
Tenant may declare the occurrence of a "Landlord Default" under this Agreement
by giving Notice of such declaration to Landlord and to such Facility Mortgagee.
Thereafter, Tenant may (but shall have no obligation to) cure the same and,
subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, invoice Landlord for costs
and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, paralegals' fees and court
costs) incurred by Tenant in curing the same. If any such costs and expenses
have not been reimbursed to Tenant as of the fifth (5th) day after the Landlord
receives Tenant's Notice therefor, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, a late charge
computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such reimbursement from the
expiration of the applicable cure period to the date of payment thereof. Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have no
right to terminate this Agreement for any default by Landlord hereunder or under
the Other Leases and no right, for any such default, to offset or counterclaim
against any Rent or other charges due hereunder.
If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord
Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall
give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis
therefor, no Landlord Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord
shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse determination
thereof; provided, however, that in the event of any such adverse determination,
Landlord shall pay to Tenant interest on any disputed funds at the Disbursement
Rate, from the date demand for such funds was made by Tenant until the date of
final adverse determination and, thereafter, at the Overdue Rate until paid.
During the term of the Operating Agreement, Landlord shall indemnify
and hold Tenant harmless against all claims, costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and paralegals' fees) arising from a Landlord Default
under the terms and conditions of this Agreement which shall cause an Event of
Default under Section 16.01 of the Operating Agreement or a breach by Landlord
of its obligations under the Owner Agreement or the Pooling Agreement. The
provisions of this Section 14.2 shall survive the termination, expiration or
cancellation of this Agreement for a period of five (5) years.
XV. TRANSFERS OR TERMINATION BY LANDLORD OR TENANT
Section 15.1 Transfer by Landlord of Leased Property.
Landlord may, in its sole and absolute discretion, sell, assign,
transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of (a "Transfer") its interest in the
Leased Property, or any portion thereof or interest therein, directly or
indirectly, to any Person without the consent of Tenant.
Section 15.2 Termination of Agreement by Landlord.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Landlord
may, in its sole and absolute discretion, terminate this Agreement upon prior
Notice to Tenant effective as of the date designated in such Notice in the event
of (i) any Transfer by Landlord to any Person of its interest in the Leased
Property, or any portion thereof or interest therein, directly or indirectly, or
transfer by the partners of Landlord of their partnership interests in Landlord,
provided that such Person is an individual or Entity which is not a Related
Person, (ii) the placement or refinancing of any mortgage, deed of trust or
other security agreement on all or any part of Landlord's interest in the Leased
Property, (iii) any determination by Landlord or Operator that Tenant is not
complying with the provisions of the Operating Agreement after written notice to
Tenant and the expiration of the applicable grace period or (iv) any change in
the requirements or provisions of Section 865(d) of the Code, including
interpretations thereof, as determined in the discretion of REIT counsel to the
Landlord, which would permit the Landlord to render those services to residents
of the Leased Property which are necessary to operate the Leased Property as an
assisted living (and skilled nursing) facility, directly or indirectly,
including through a Related Person, without causing income derived from such
facility to be treated as other than "rents from real property" for purposes of
Section 865(d) of the Code. Termination of this Agreement pursuant to this
Section 15.2 shall not relieve either party of its obligations under this Lease
that have accrued as of the effective date of such termination, appropriately
prorated on a daily basis.
If Landlord terminates this Agreement, pursuant to sections (i), (ii)
or (iv) of the foregoing paragraph, the Landlord shall provide the Tenant with
at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days prior written notice (the
"Termination Notice"), provided however, that if the Landlord chooses to
terminate this Lease Agreement pursuant to section (i), (ii) or (iv) of the
foregoing paragraph, on any day which is prior to the three hundred sixty-fifth
(365th) day from which Landlord provided Tenant with the Termination Notice (the
"One Year Notice Date"), Landlord shall pay to Tenant an amount equal to
three-quarters (3/4) of one percent (1%) of Total Facility Revenues (the
"Termination Fee") for the period of time from the date immediately following
the effective date of the termination of this Agreement to the One Year Notice
Date. For example, if the Landlord provides the Tenant with a Termination Notice
which provides that the effective date of the termination of this Agreement will
be in a number of days equal to four (4) Accounting Periods from the date of
said Termination Notice, then the Landlord will pay to the Tenant the
Termination Fee for a number of days equal to nine (9) Accounting Periods. The
Termination Fee shall be payable to the Tenant from the Landlord on the
twenty-fifth (25th) day of each applicable Accounting Period(s). If the
Termination Fee begins to accrue on any day other than the first (1st) day of an
Accounting Period, the Termination Fee for such partial Accounting Period shall
be prorated on a per diem basis.
If this Lease Agreement is terminated for any reason, in consideration
for the Termination Notice and/or the Termination Fee, Tenant shall cooperate
with Landlord to facilitate the issuance or transfer of Licenses to the Landlord
or such other Entity which is approved by the Landlord.
XVI. SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT
Section 16.1 Subletting and Assignment.
(a) Except as provided in Sections 16.2, Tenant shall not, without
Landlord's prior written consent (which may be given or withheld by Landlord in
its sole discretion), assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or
otherwise transfer this Agreement or sublease (which term shall be deemed to
include the granting of concessions, licenses and the like), all or any part of
the Leased Property or suffer or permit this Agreement or the leasehold estate
created hereby or any other rights arising under this Agreement to be assigned,
transferred, mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated or encumbered, in whole or in
part, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, or permit the
use or operation of the Leased Property by anyone other than Tenant, or the
Leased Property to be offered or advertised for assignment or subletting. For
purposes of this Section 16.1, an assignment of this Agreement shall be deemed
to include any direct or indirect transfer of any interest in Tenant such that
Tenant shall cease to be directly or indirectly owned by DSTS Holding, Inc. or
any transaction pursuant to which Tenant is merged or consolidated with another
Entity which is not owned by DSTS Holding, Inc. or pursuant to which all or
substantially all of Tenant's assets are transferred to any other Entity, as if
such change in control or transaction were an assignment of this Agreement.
(b) If this Agreement is assigned or if the Leased Property or any
part thereof is sublet (or occupied by anybody other than Tenant) in violation
of this Agreement, Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant
or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent
herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the
provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 16.1, the acceptance
by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a
tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its
covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement.
(c) No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the
continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder (unless Landlord and Tenant
expressly otherwise agree that Tenant shall be released from all obligations
hereunder), and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular
instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the prohibition set forth in this
Section 16.1. No assignment, subletting or occupancy shall affect any Permitted
Use. Any subletting, assignment or other transfer of Tenant's interest under
this Agreement in contravention of this Section 16.1 shall be voidable at
Landlord's option.
Section 16.2 Required Sublease Provisions.
Any sublease of all or any portion of the Leased Property entered into
on or after the date hereof in accordance with and subject to the provisions of
Section 16.3 shall provide (a) that it is subject and subordinate to this
Agreement and to the matters to which this Agreement is or shall be subject or
subordinate; (b) that in the event of termination of this Agreement or reentry
or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Agreement, Landlord may, at
its option, terminate such sublease or take over all of the right, title and
interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and, except as provided
below, such subtenant shall, at Landlord's option, attorn to Landlord pursuant
to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord
nor any Facility Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this
Agreement, if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for
any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any
credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such
subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous prepayment of more than
one (1) Accounting Period, (iv) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to undertake
or complete any construction work on the Leased Property or any portion thereof,
(v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than
any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi) be bound by
any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits,
except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for under the
sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment, (vii) be
responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of such subtenant, or
(viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any portion of the Leased
Property; and (c), in the event that such subtenant receives a written Notice
from Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay
all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such
Notice or as such party may direct. All rentals received from such subtenant by
Landlord or the Facility Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited
against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall
provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute
a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn. An original
counterpart of each such sublease duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant
shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and Tenant shall remain liable for the
payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the
covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The provisions of
this Section 16.2 shall not be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in
Section 16.1(a). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 16.2,
the Transition Period Sublease to be entered into by and between the Tenant and
the Operator of even date herewith is hereby approved by the Landlord and shall
not be required to comply with the provisions of this Section 16.2.
Section 16.3 Permitted Sublease and Assignment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the provisions of Section
16.4 and any other express conditions or limitations set forth herein, Tenant
may, without Landlord's consent, sublease space at the Leased Property so long
as (i) such sublease will not cause an event of default under the Operating
Agreement, if applicable, and such sublease has been approved by the Operator,
if applicable, and (ii) such subleases do not demise, in the aggregate, in
excess of six hundred (600) square feet of area.
Section 16.4 Sublease Limitation.
For so long as Landlord or any Affiliate as to Landlord shall seek to
qualify as a real estate investment trust, anything contained in this Agreement
to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet the Leased Property on
any basis such that the rental to be paid by any sublessee thereunder would be
based, in whole or in part, on either (a) the income or profits derived by the
business activities of such sublessee, or (b) any other formula such that any
portion of such sublease rental would fail to qualify as "rents from real
property" within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or
successor provision thereto.
XVII. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Section 17.1 Estoppel Certificates.
At any time and from time to time, upon not less than ten (10) Business
Days prior Notice by either party, the party receiving such Notice shall furnish
to the other a certificate certifying that this Agreement is unmodified and in
full force and effect (or that this Agreement is in full force and effect as
modified and setting forth the modifications), the date to which the Rent has
been paid, that to its knowledge no Default or an Event of Default by the other
party has occurred and is continuing or, if a Default or an Event of Default
shall exist, specifying in reasonable detail the nature thereof, and the steps
being taken to remedy the same, and such additional information as the
requesting party may reasonably request. If such additional information
reasonably requires more than ten (10) Business Days to provide, the party
furnishing such information shall be entitled to such additional period to
respond to such request as may be reasonably required under the circumstances.
Any such certificate furnished pursuant to this Section 17.1 may be relied upon
by the requesting party, its lenders and any prospective purchaser or mortgagee
of the Leased Property or the leasehold estate created hereby.
Section 17.2 Financial Statements.
Tenant shall prepare and deliver to Landlord, or shall cause Operator
to prepare and deliver to Landlord during the term of the Operating Agreement, a
copy of any and all Interim Reports or Annual Financial Reports (as such terms
are defined in the Operating Agreement) prepared by Tenant or prepared by
Operator, if applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Operating
Agreement. During the term of the Operating Agreement, Tenant shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the Operator's obligations under the
Operating Agreement to prepare any and all Interim Reports and Annual Financial
Reports. Tenant shall deliver, or shall cause Operator to deliver, the reports
referenced in this Section 17.2 within seventy-five (75) days after the close of
each Accounting Period.
Subject to any Facility Mortgagee entering into such confidentiality
agreement with Tenant and Operator, if applicable, as Tenant and Operator may
reasonably require, Landlord may at any time, and from time to time, provide any
Facility Mortgagee with copies of any of the foregoing statements.
Section 17.3 General Operations.
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, or shall cause Operator to deliver to
Landlord during the term of the Operating Agreement, a copy of any and all
Annual Operating Projections (as such term is defined in the Operating
Agreement) prepared by the Tenant or the Operator, if applicable. During the
term of the Operating Agreement, Tenant shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to enforce Operator's obligations to prepare the Annual Operating
Projections referenced in this Section 17.3. In addition, at Landlord's request,
Tenant, and Operator, at Tenant's direction, shall meet with Landlord on a
quarterly basis to discuss the Annual Operating Projection, Reserve Estimate,
the Building Estimate and any other items related to the operation of the
Retirement Community, which Landlord wishes to discuss. The Annual Operating
Projection shall be delivered to Landlord by Tenant, or Operator at the
direction of Tenant, within three (3) days of when the Annual Operating
Projection is due to Tenant from Operator each Fiscal Year.
XVIII. LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO INSPECT
Tenant shall permit Landlord and its authorized representatives to
inspect the Leased Property at reasonable times of the day upon not less than
twenty-four (24) hours' Notice to Tenant and Landlord, provided that any
inspection by Landlord or its representatives will not unreasonably interfere
with Tenant's or Operator's use and operation of the Leased Property and further
provided that in the event of an emergency, as determined by Landlord in its
reasonable discretion, prior Notice shall not be necessary.
XIX. FACILITY MORTGAGES
Section 19.1 Landlord May ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇.
Upon Notice from Landlord to Tenant and with the Operator's consent, to
the extent required by the Operating Agreement, Landlord may from time to time,
directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause to exist any lien, encumbrance
or title retention agreement ("Encumbrance") upon the Leased Property, or any
portion thereof or interest therein, whether to secure any borrowing or other
means of financing or refinancing. Any Encumbrance upon the Leased Property
shall be non-recourse to the Tenant. The aggregate principal balance of all
Encumbrances upon the Leased Property shall be no greater than seventy-five
percent (75%) of the fair market value of the Retirement Community without the
prior written consent of Tenant. For the purposes hereof, the fair market value
of the Retirement Community shall mean the dollar amount resulting by
multiplying the Total Facility Revenues during the thirteen (13) full Accounting
Periods immediately preceding the Accounting Period in which the calculation is
made by ten (10).
Section 19.2 Subordination of Lease.
Upon Notice from Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver an
agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord,
subordinating this Agreement to any Encumbrance permitted pursuant to Section
19.1 and Tenant shall join in and execute any loan documents approved by
Landlord and the Facility Mortgagee that are for the purpose of granting to the
Facility Mortgagee a security interest in the interest of Tenant under this
Lease and in any and all other assets relating to the Leased Property,
including, without limitation, the Operating Agreement, Case Goods, Inventories,
subleases, license and permits but excluding Tenant's Personal Property provided
that the same shall not impose any liability on Tenant beyond Tenant's interest
under this Lease and the aforesaid assets.
Section 19.3 Notices.
Subsequent to the receipt by Tenant of Notice from Landlord as to the
identity of any Facility Mortgagee (which Notice shall be accompanied by a copy
of the applicable Encumbrance and the address of such Facility Mortgagee), no
Notice from Tenant to Landlord as to any default by Landlord under this
Agreement shall be effective unless and until a copy of the same is given to
such Facility Mortgagee at the address set forth in the above described Notice,
and the curing of any of Landlord's defaults by such Facility Mortgagee shall be
treated as performance by Landlord.
XX. ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF TENANT
Section 20.1 Conduct of Business.
Tenant shall not engage in any business other than the leasing and
operation of the Collective Leased Properties and activities incidental thereto
and shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and
keep in full force and effect and in good standing its existence and its rights
and licenses necessary to conduct such business.
Section 20.2 Maintenance of Accounts and Records.
Tenant shall keep and during the term of the Operating Agreement shall
cause Operator to keep true records and books of account of Tenant and Operator,
respectively, in which full, true and correct entries will be made of dealings
and transactions in relation to the business and affairs of Tenant, Operator and
the Retirement Community. Landlord may at reasonable intervals during Tenant's
or Operator's normal business hours examine, copy (including copying any such
records contained in software other than records relating to current or former
residents of the Retirement Community), and audit such records. The parties
shall, within thirty (30) Business Days after the receipt of the Annual
Financial Report, make any adjustments, by cash payment, needed because of the
final figures set forth in the Annual Financial Report, or send a Notice of
disputed items or matters in appropriate detail. Final adjustments, if any, will
be made at the time any disputed items or matters are resolved by the parties.
If Landlord desires, at its own expense, to audit, examine and/or review, the
Annual Financial Report and supporting records and/or certain procedures at the
Retirement Community, as may be agreed upon by Landlord, Tenant and Operator,
with respect to internal financial controls, accounting policies and accounting
procedures, or other procedures at the Retirement Community, Tenant shall notify
Operator in writing within sixty (60) days after receipt of such statement of
its intention to audit and/or review such procedures and begin such audit and/or
review no sooner than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days after
Tenant and Operator's receipt of such Notice. Landlord shall complete such audit
and/or review within ninety (90) days after commencement thereof. If Landlord
does not make such an audit and/or review, then such Annual Financial Report and
procedures shall be deemed to be conclusively accepted by Landlord as being
correct, and Landlord shall have no right thereafter, except in the event of
fraud by Tenant and/or Operator during the term of the Operating Agreement, to
question or examine the same. If such review by Landlord determines that the
procedures specified above are not in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement, Landlordwill provide Tenant and/or Operator, as applicable, with
written notice of such deficiency and Tenant and/or Operator, as applicable
shall remedy such deficiency. If any audit by Landlord discloses an overpayment
of any amounts to Tenant and/or Operator, as applicable, Tenant and/or Operator,
as applicable, shall promptly pay Landlord such amounts found to be due, plus
interest thereon at the Disbursement Rate from the date such amounts should
originally have been paid. If, however, the audit discloses that Tenant and/or
Operator has not received any amounts due it, Landlord shall pay to Tenant
and/or Operator, as applicable, such amounts, plus interest thereon at the
Disbursement Rate from the date such amounts should originally have been paid.
Landlord shall keep in confidence all information which it might gain or gather
from the examination or audit of Tenant's and Operator's accounts and records,
unless required to disclose such information pursuant to Applicable Laws. In
addition, such auditors shall sign a confidentiality agreement reasonably
acceptable to Tenant and Operator.
Section 20.3 Distributions, Payments to Affiliates, Etc.
Tenant shall not declare, order, pay or make, directly or indirectly,
any Distributions if, at the time of such proposed action, or immediately after
giving effect thereto, any Event of Default with respect to the payment of Rent
shall have occurred and be continuing; provided, however, that Tenant may resume
making such Distributions if (i) Landlord shall not commence, within ninety (90)
days after Notice by Landlord to Tenant of the occurrence of any such Event of
Default, to enforce its rights and remedies arising on account of such Event of
Default with respect to the payment of Rent, and diligently pursue enforcement
of such rights and remedies thereafter, and (ii) no other Event of Default
(i.e., an Event of Default arising from a cause other than the non-payment of
Rent) has occurred as to which Landlord has commenced enforcing and is
continuously and diligently pursuing the enforcement of its rights and remedies
arising on account of any such Event of Default.
Section 20.4 Compliance with Operating Agreement.
20.4.1 Material Terms of the Operating Agreement
Tenant shall substantially comply with all material terms and
provisions of the Operating Agreement (or any replacement thereof) to be
complied with by Tenant, subject to Tenant's right to pursue all available
remedies, at law and in equity, with respect to any alleged default by Tenant in
the performance of its duties and obligations under the Operating Agreement, or
otherwise contest, in good faith and with due diligence, any such alleged
default by Tenant; provided, however, that in the event of any casualty or
condemnation or other event or circumstances, Tenant shall not be obligated to
expend its own funds in excess of such amounts that Tenant would be obligated
pursuant to the Lease to expend under such event or circumstances. Tenant shall
not enter into any modifications or amendments of Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05,
2.09, 3.01, 4.01, 4.02, 4.03, 5.01, 5.02, 6.02, 7.01, 7.02, 8.01, 8.02, 8.03,
8.05, 8.06, 9.01, 9.02, 9.03, 9.05, 11.02, 11.03, 12.01, 12.02, 12.03, 12.04,
13.01, 14.01, 15.01, 15.02, 15.03, 16.01, 16.02, 16.03, 17.01, 18.01, 18.02,
19.03, 19.09, 19.11, 19.12, 19.16, and 19.19 of the Operating Agreement, nor
terminate the same prior to the expiration thereof, without Landlord's prior
written consent; nor shall Tenant enter into any replacement of the Operating
Agreement without Landlord's prior written consent. To the extent required by
this Section 20.4.1, Landlord's consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
conditioned so long as any such modification, amendment, termination or
replacement of the Operating Agreement does not materially and adversely affect
the duties and obligations of the parties thereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the Operating Agreement is terminated by reason of
a default by the Operator thereunder, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold
or condition its consent to the selection by Tenant of another Operator with
experience in the assisted living facility business and the execution of a new
Operating Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Tenant and such new
Operator. Additionally, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that in the
event that Operating Agreement is terminated for any reason whatsoever and a
replacement Operating Agreement is not entered into, this Agreement shall be
amended to provide for certain additional terms, conditions and obligations
which relate to and provide for the operation of the Retirement Community. Such
additional terms and conditions shall be mutually agreed to by the Landlord and
the Tenant.
20.4.2 Communication with the Operator.
Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Landlord is hereby
authorized to communicate directly with the Operator in connection with the
operation of the Retirement Community and in connection with certain terms and
provisions set forth in the Operating Agreement, provided that Landlord shall
not take any action that would solely by reason of such action cause Tenant to
be in default under the Operating Agreement, the Pooling Agreement or the Owner
Agreement. Landlord acknowledges that it will accept the performance, by
Operator on behalf of Tenant, of all of the covenants, conditions and
obligations of Tenant contained in this Agreement.
20.4.3 Enforcement of the Operating Agreement.
The Tenant hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to
pursue and enforce any and all rights available to Tenant under the terms of the
Operating Agreement.
XXI. MISCELLANEOUS
Section 21.1 Limitation on Payment of Rent.
All agreements between Landlord and Tenant herein are hereby expressly
limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of
acceleration of Rent, or otherwise, shall the Rent or any other amounts payable
to Landlord under this Agreement exceed the maximum permissible under Applicable
Laws, the benefit of which may be asserted by Tenant as a defense, and if, from
any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Agreement, at
the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending
the limit of validity prescribed by Applicable Laws, or if from any
circumstances Landlord should ever receive as fulfillment of such provision such
an excessive amount, then, ipso facto, the amount which would be excessive shall
be applied to the reduction of the installment(s) of Minimum Rent next due and
not to the payment of such excessive amount. This provision shall control every
other provision of this Agreement and any other agreements between Landlord and
Tenant.
Section 21.2 No Waiver.
No failure by Landlord or Tenant to insist upon the strict performance
of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a
breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial payment of Rent during the
continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or
of any such term. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no waiver of any
breach shall affect or alter this Agreement, which shall continue in full force
and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach.
Section 21.3 Remedies Cumulative.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, each legal, equitable or
contractual right, power and remedy of Landlord or Tenant, now or hereafter
provided either in this Agreement or by Applicable Laws or otherwise, shall be
cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power
and remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord or Tenant
(as applicable) of any one or more of such rights, powers and remedies shall not
preclude the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of
such other rights, powers and remedies.
Section 21.4 Severability.
Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision of this Agreement
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or ineffective
shall not impair, invalidate or nullify the remainder of this Agreement, but
rather the effect thereof shall be confined to the clause, sentence, paragraph,
section or provision so held to be invalid, illegal or ineffective, and this
Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or ineffective
provisions had never been contained therein.
Section 21.5 Acceptance of Surrender.
No surrender to Landlord of this Agreement or of the Leased Property or
any part thereof, or of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless
agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any
representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by
Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.
Section 21.6 No Merger of Title.
It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that it is the intent of the
parties that there shall be no merger of this Agreement or of the leasehold
estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire,
own or hold, directly or indirectly this Agreement or the leasehold estate
created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord's interest in the Leased
Property.
Section 21.7 Conveyance by Landlord.
If Landlord or any successor owner of all or any portion of the Leased
Property shall convey all or any portion of the Leased Property in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement (specifically including Article XV) other than
as security for a debt, and the grantee or transferee of such of the Leased
Property shall expressly assume all obligations of Landlord hereunder arising or
accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or transfer, Landlord or
such successor owner, as the case may be, shall thereupon be released from all
future liabilities and obligations of Landlord under this Agreement with respect
to such of the Leased Property 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 the new owner.
Section 21.8 Quiet Enjoyment.
Landlord covenants that, so long as Tenant is not in Default under this
Agreement, Tenant shall quietly hold, occupy, enjoy and manage the Retirement
Community throughout the Term hereof free from hindrance, ejection or
molestation by Landlord or any other party claiming under, through or by right
of Landlord. Landlord agrees to pay and discharge any payments and charges and,
at its expense, to prosecute all appropriate actions, judicial or otherwise,
necessary to assure such free and quiet occupation. Additionally, Landlord
covenants that the Title Encumbrances shall not materially and adversely affect
the Tenant's use and occupancy of the Retirement Community under the terms of
this Agreement.
Section 21.9 Memorandum of Lease.
Tenant shall not record this Agreement without obtaining the prior
written consent of Landlord. Tenant shall promptly, upon the request of
Landlord, enter into a short form memorandum of this Agreement, in form suitable
for recording under the laws of the State in which reference is made to this
Agreement and to such provisions herein that Landlord may desire to include in
such memorandum. All costs and expenses of recording such memorandum shall be
payable by the party that records such memorandum.
Section 21.10 Notices.
(a) Notices, statements and other communications to be given under
the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and delivered by hand against

or at such other address as is from time to time designated by the
party receiving the Notice. Any such Notice that is mailed in accordance
herewith shall be deemed received when delivery is received or refused, as the
case may be.
Section 21.11 Construction; Non-recourse.
Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
all claims against, and liabilities of, Tenant or Landlord arising prior to any
date of termination or expiration of this Agreement with respect to the Leased
Property shall survive such termination or expiration. Neither this Agreement
nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except
by an instrument in writing signed by all the parties thereto. All the terms and
provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Each
term or provision of this Agreement to be performed by Tenant shall be construed
as an independent covenant and condition. Time is of the essence with respect to
the exercise of any rights of Tenant or Landlord under this Agreement. Except as
otherwise set forth in this Agreement, any obligations arising prior to the
expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement of Tenant (including without
limitation, any monetary, repair and indemnification obligations) and Landlord
shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement; provided,
however, that each party shall be required to give the other Notice of any such
surviving and unsatisfied obligations within one year after the expiration or
sooner termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall
be construed to create or impose any liabilities or obligations and no such
liabilities or obligations shall be imposed on any of the shareholders,
beneficial owners, direct or indirect, officers, directors, trustees, employees
or agents of Landlord or Tenant for the payment or performance of the
obligations or liabilities of Landlord or Tenant hereunder. Further, in the
event Landlord shall be in default under this Agreement, and if as a consequence
of such default, Tenant shall recover a money judgment against Landlord, such
judgment shall be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received upon
execution of such judgment against the right, title and interest of Landlord in
the Leased Property and the Collective Leased Properties.
Section 21.12 Counterparts; Headings.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall constitute an original, but which, when taken together, shall
constitute but one instrument and shall become effective as of the date hereof
when copies hereof, which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of
the parties hereto shall have been signed. Headings in this Agreement are for
purposes of reference only and shall not limit or affect the meaning of the
provisions hereof.
Section 21.13 Applicable Law, Etc.
This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State applicable to contracts between residents
of the State which are to be performed entirely within the State, regardless of
(i) where this Agreement is executed or delivered; or (ii) where any payment or
other performance required by this Agreement is made or required to be made; or
(iii) where any breach of any provision of this Agreement occurs, or any cause
of action otherwise accrues; or (iv) where any action or other proceeding is
instituted or pending; or (v) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal
place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any
party; or (vi) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply
the laws of a jurisdiction other than the State; or (vii) any combination of the
foregoing.
To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Laws, any action to
enforce, arising out of, or relating in any way to, any of the provisions of
this Agreement may be brought and prosecuted in such court or courts located in
the State as is provided by Applicable Laws; and the parties consent to the
jurisdiction of said court or courts located in the State and to service of
process by registered mail, return receipt requested, or by any other manner
provided by Applicable Laws.
Section 21.14 Right to Make Agreement.
Each party warrants, with respect to itself, that neither the execution
of this Agreement, nor the consummation of any transaction contemplated hereby,
shall violate any provision of any Applicable Laws, or any judgment, writ,
injunction, order or decree of any court or governmental authority having
jurisdiction over it; nor result in or constitute a breach or default under any
indenture, contract, other commitment or restriction to which it is a party or
by which it is bound; nor require any consent, vote or approval which has not
been given or taken, or at the time of the transaction involved shall not have
been given or taken. Each party covenants that it has and will continue to have
throughout the term of this Agreement and any extensions thereof, the full right
to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder.
Section 21.15 Disclosure of Information.
(a) Any Proprietary Information obtained by Landlord with respect
to Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be treated as
confidential, except that such information may be used, subject to
confidentiality safeguards mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, in any
litigation between the parties and except further that, subject to the terms of
Section 22.16, Landlord may disclose such information to its prospective
lenders, provided that Landlord shall direct and obtain the agreement of such
lenders to maintain such information as confidential.
(b) The parties hereto agree that the matters set forth in this
Agreement and any revenue, expense, net profit, fee rates and occupancy
information provided by Tenant or any of the Affiliates of Tenant are strictly
confidential and each party will make every effort to ensure that the
information is not disclosed to any Person that is not an Affiliate as to any
party (including the press) other than the Operator, or any other Affiliate of
Marriott, without the prior written consent of the other party, except as may be
required by Applicable Laws and as may be reasonably necessary to obtain
licenses, permits and other public approvals necessary for the refurbishment or
operation of the Retirement Community, or, subject to the restrictions of
Section 22.15(c) relative to the contents of any Prospectus, in connection with
a Landlord financing, a sale of the Retirement Community, or a sale of a
controlling interest in Landlord.
(c) No reference to Tenant, or any of Tenant's Affiliates will be
made in any prospectus, private placement memorandum, offering circular or
offering documentation related thereto (collectively, the "Prospectus"), issued
by Landlord or any of its Affiliates, which is designed to interest potential
investors in the Retirement Community, unless Tenant has previously received a
copy of all such references and has approved in writing the use of such
references. No Prospectus shall include fee rate and occupancy data or revenue,
expense or net profit information pertaining to the Retirement Community.
Regardless of whether Tenant so receives a copy of the Prospectus or has
approved any references to Tenant or any of Tenant's Affiliates in the
Prospectus, neither Tenant nor Tenant's Affiliates will be deemed a sponsor of
the offering described in the Prospectus, nor will they have any responsibility
for the Prospectus, and the Prospectus will so state. Unless Tenant agrees in
advance, the Prospectus will not include any trademark, symbols, logos or
designs of Tenant, or any of Tenant's Affiliates. Landlord shall indemnify,
defend and hold Tenant and Tenant's Affiliates harmless from and against all
loss, costs, liability and damage (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses, and all costs of litigation) arising out of any Prospectus or the
offering described therein; and this obligation of Landlord shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.
(d) The obligations of Tenant and Landlord contained in this
Section 22.15 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
Agreement.
Section 21.16 Competing Facilities.
Neither this Agreement nor anything implied by the relationship between
Landlord and Tenant shall prohibit Tenant, from constructing, operating,
promoting, and/or authorizing others to construct, operate, or promote one or
more assisted living facilities or any other business operations of any type, at
any location, including a location proximate to the Land. Landlord acknowledges,
accepts and agrees further that Tenant and Tenant's Affiliates retain the right,
from time to time, to construct or operate, or both, or promote or acquire, or
authorize or otherwise license others to construct or operate, or both, or
promote or acquire any assisted living facilities or other business operations
of any type whatsoever, including, but not by way of limitation, those listed
above, at any location including one or more sites which may be adjacent,
adjoining or proximate to the Land, which business operations may be in direct
competition with the Leased Improvements and that any such exercise may
adversely affect the operation of the Leased Improvements.
