All payments to Landlord shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds or by other means acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion and all such payments shall, upon receipt by Landlord, be and remain the sole and absolute property of Landlord. If Landlord shall at any time accept any such Rent or other sums after the same shall become due and payable, or any partial payment of Rent, such acceptance shall not excuse a delay upon subsequent occasions, or constitute or be construed as a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights hereunder.

3.2 Minimum Rent. Tenant shall pay annual base minimum rent (“Minimum Rent”) for the Leased Property to Landlord in equal installments in advance, on the first (1st) Business Day of each Accounting Period; provided, however, that, subject to the next sentence of this Section 3.2, Landlord and Tenant agree that payment of Minimum Rent due and payable under this Lease for the January 2009, February 2009, March 2009, April 2009, May 2009 and June 2009 Accounting Periods in the aggregate amount of $454,311.30 ($75,718.55 with respect to each such Accounting Period) shall be deferred (collectively, the “2009 Deferred Minimum Rent”).

- 24 -


Accounting Period, together with the Minimum Rent then due and payable by Tenant. As further clarification, for each Lease Year commencing with Lease Year 2019 and ending with Lease Year 2028, Tenant shall pay the amount of $45,431.13 in each of the ten (10) applicable Lease Years, in addition to, and together with in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Minimum Rent then due and payable in each such Lease Year. Commencing with the July 2009 Accounting Period, Tenant shall timely pay to Landlord, in full, any and all Rent due and payable under this Lease. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Landlord’s agreement to defer the 2009 Deferred Minimum Rent (a) shall not be construed or deemed in any manner whatsoever to constitute a concession or forgiveness of Rent by Landlord in favor of Tenant under this Lease, and (b) shall not, and does not, constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies of Landlord to fully enforce the terms and conditions of this Lease, and, accordingly, all terms and provisions of, and rights and remedies of Landlord under, this Lease hereby remain in full force and effect with respect thereto.

3.2.1 Calculation of Minimum Rent. Tenant shall pay Minimum Rent during each Accounting Year in an amount equal to the sum of the product of (a) the applicable “Lease Rate” set forth in the table entitled “Lease Rate Schedule” set forth on Exhibit B-1 attached hereto (the “Lease Rate”), multiplied by (b) the Adjusted Lease Basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lease Rate for the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending December 31, 2009 shall be 6.25%, and, thereafter, the Lease Rate shall be subject to adjustment on an annual basis in accordance with the “Lease Rate Schedule” table set forth on Exhibit B-1 based upon the amount of Aggregate Total Facility Revenues for the applicable Lease Year; provided, however, that (i) for Lease Year 2010, the Lease Rate shall be subject to a floor rate of 5.25%, with such floor rate to increase at a rate of twenty (20) basis points each Lease Year in accordance with the “Lease Rate Floor Schedule” table set forth on Exhibit B-1, regardless of the amount of Aggregate Total Facility Revenues for the applicable Lease Year (each, a “Lease Rate Floor”), and (ii) the Lease Rate shall be capped at, and shall never exceed, 9.5% (the “Lease Rate Cap”). Accordingly, commencing Lease Year 2010 and for each Lease Year thereafter, the Lease Rate shall be the greater of (x) the Lease Rate set forth in the “Lease Rate Schedule” table on Exhibit B-1, based upon the Aggregate Total Facility Revenues for the immediately preceding Lease Year, or (y) the Lease Rate set forth in the “Lease Rate Floor Schedule” table on Exhibit B-1 for the then current Lease Year. By way of example only, if Aggregate Total Facility Revenues for Lease Year 2012 are $160,000,000.00, then the Lease Rate for Lease Year 2013 shall be 6.0%; and if Aggregate Total Facility Revenues for Lease Year 2012 are $140,000,000.00, then the Lease Rate for Lease Year 2013 shall be 5.85%, and not 5.25%, because the Lease Rate Floor for Lease Year 2013 is 5.85%.

3.2.2 Minimum Rent Upon Transfer by Tenant. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, upon any permitted direct or indirect sale, assignment or other transfer of all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to this Lease and the Leased Property, or upon any permitted Transfer of Tenant pursuant to the terms of Sections 16.1 and 16.2 hereof, (a) Section 3.2.1 shall be null and void and of no further force or effect, and the provisions regarding calculation and payment of Minimum Rent set forth on Exhibit B-2 attached hereto, shall replace same, shall become a part hereof, and shall be fully enforceable against Tenant or any replacement tenant on and after the date of such sale, assignment or other transfer, and (b) all 2009 Deferred Minimum Rent shall be immediately due and payable to Landlord.

3.2.3 Annual Reconciliation of Minimum Rent. Commencing with Lease Year 2010, Tenant shall, no later than fifteen (15) days following the end of each Fiscal Year during the Term hereof furnish to Landlord for such Fiscal Year a complete statement (the “Annual Operations Statement”) certified true and correct by the Chief Financial Officer of Tenant, or of Tenant’s general partner or managing member, if applicable, setting forth, with respect to such Fiscal Year in reasonable detail the Total Facility Revenues for the Golf Club for such Fiscal Year. If the Annual Operations Statement for any Fiscal Year indicates that the aggregate of the installment payments theretofore made with respect to such Fiscal Year pursuant to this Section 3.2 exceeds the Minimum Rent due for such Fiscal Year, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against the next installment or installments of Minimum Rent falling due (or will pay the amount of such overpayment to Tenant if this Lease shall have terminated other than by reason of Tenant’s default or if Landlord so elects to do so). If, on the other hand, the Annual Operations Statement indicates that the aggregate of the installment payments theretofore made with respect to such Fiscal Year is less than the Minimum Rent due for such Fiscal Year then Tenant shall pay the balance or excess, as the case may be, together with interest thereon determined as set forth below in this paragraph, to Landlord concurrently with the submission of the Annual Operations Statement.

3.2.4 Landlord Audit of Annual Operations Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord at its own expense, except as provided herein below, shall have the right, exercisable by Notice to Tenant given within 365 days after receipt of the applicable Annual Operations Statement, by its accountants or representatives, to commence within such 365-day period and during normal business hours an audit of the information set forth in such Annual Operations Statement and, in connection with such audit, to examine all of Tenant’s books and records with respect thereto (including supporting data and sales and excise tax returns); provided, however, if Landlord reasonably believes Tenant has intentionally misrepresented Total Facility Revenues on any such Annual Operations Statement, the said 365-day period shall commence to run on the date Landlord obtains credible evidence that Tenant has intentionally misrepresented Total Facility Revenues on any such Annual Operations Statement. If Landlord does not commence an audit within such 365-day period, such Annual Operations Statement shall be deemed to be accepted by Landlord as correct. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete any such audit as soon as practicable. If such audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Minimum Rent or Additional Minimum Rent (if applicable), Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the amount of the deficiency, together with interest at the Disbursement Rate from the date such payment should have been made to the date of payment therefore. If such deficiency is more than three percent (3%) of the Total Facility Revenues reported by Tenant for such Fiscal Year, Tenant shall also pay the costs of or immediately reimburse Landlord for the cost of such audit and examination.

3.3 Additional Minimum Rent. At such time (a) Tenant has paid aggregate Minimum Rent under all of the Leases at a rate equal to the Lease Rate Cap for a Lease Year pursuant to Section 3.2.3, or (b) any permitted direct or indirect sale, assignment or other transfer of all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to this Lease and the Leased Property, or any permitted Transfer of Tenant pursuant to the terms of Sections 16.1 and 16.2 hereof, has occurred, then, in addition to and not in lieu of Minimum Rent, Tenant shall pay percentage rent (“Additional Minimum Rent”), together with all applicable sales, use or excise tax thereon now

 

- 26 -


or hereafter applied to rental receipts by the State in which the Land is located, to Landlord semi-annually for each Fiscal Year or portion thereof. Installments of Additional Minimum Rent shall be due and payable in arrears within thirty (30) days following the end of the six (6) month period ending June 30 and the six (6) month period ending December 31 of each Fiscal Year (each a “Fiscal Half Year”) of the Term hereof, based upon Total Facility Revenues for such Fiscal Half Year and the Threshold amount allocated to each such Fiscal Half Year on an aggregated basis, such that Additional Minimum Rent due and payable for the second Fiscal Half Year in any Fiscal Year shall be based upon aggregate Total Facility Revenues for such Fiscal Year in excess of aggregate Additional Minimum Rent Threshold (defined below) amounts for such Fiscal Year less amounts actually paid as Additional Minimum Rent for the first Fiscal Half Year. Along with each Additional Minimum Rent payment, Tenant shall submit to Landlord an unaudited (but certified by a duly authorized officer of Tenant or Tenant’s general partner or managing member, as applicable) statement showing a detailed breakdown of the calculation of Additional Minimum Rent for such Fiscal Half Year and for the Fiscal Year to date on a cumulative basis (each an “Additional Minimum Rent Statement”). Additional Minimum Rent for any partial Fiscal Half Year in the final Fiscal Year shall be prorated proportionately. Tenant’s obligation to pay Additional Minimum Rent for the Fiscal Half Year which includes the date of termination of this Lease shall survive the termination hereof.

3.3.1 Calculation of Additional Minimum Rent. In the event that Additional Minimum Rent is due and payable hereunder pursuant to Section 3.3 above, subject to proration as set forth above, Tenant shall pay Additional Minimum Rent in respect of each Fiscal Year under this Lease equal to (i) from the date of the Original Lease through the expiration of the fifth (5th) full Fiscal Year, ten percent (10.0%) of the Total Facility Revenues for such Fiscal Year in excess of the Additional Minimum Rent Threshold, (ii) for the sixth (6th) full Fiscal Year through the expiration of the tenth (10th) full Fiscal Year, eleven and one-quarter percent (11.25%) of the Total Facility Revenues for such Fiscal Year in excess of the Additional Minimum Rent Threshold and (iii) for the eleventh (11th) full Fiscal Year through the expiration of the Initial Term, and for each Fiscal Year during any Extended Term thereafter, twelve and one-quarter percent (12.25%) of the Total Facility Revenues for such Fiscal Year in excess of the Additional Minimum Rent Threshold. For purposes hereof, the term “Additional Minimum Rent Threshold” shall mean, (i) with respect to the six (6) month period ending June 30 of each Fiscal Year during the Term, the sum of Two Million Seven Hundred Thirty-Two Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty and No/100 Dollars ($2,732,750.00), and (ii) with respect to the six (6) month period ending December 31 of each Fiscal Year during the Term, the sum of Two Million Seven Hundred Thirty-Two Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty and No/100 Dollars ($2,732,750.00).

3.3.2 Annual Reconciliation of Additional Minimum Rent. In the event that Additional Minimum Rent is due and payable hereunder pursuant to Section 3.3 above, Tenant shall, no later than seventy-five (75) days following the end of each Fiscal Year during the Term hereof furnish to Landlord for such Fiscal Year a complete statement (the “Annual Operations Statement”) certified true and correct by the Chief Financial Officer of Tenant, or of Tenant’s general partner or managing member, if applicable, setting forth, with respect to such Fiscal Year in reasonable detail the Total Facility Revenues for the Golf Club for such Fiscal Year. If the Annual Operations Statement for any Fiscal Year indicates that the aggregate of the installment payments theretofore made with respect to such Fiscal Year pursuant to Section 3.3.1 exceeds the

 

- 27 -


Additional Minimum Rent due for such Fiscal Year, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against the next installment or installments of Minimum Rent falling due (or will pay the amount of such overpayment to Tenant if this Lease shall have terminated other than by reason of Tenant’s default or if Landlord so elects to do so). If, on the other hand, the Annual Operations Statement indicates that the aggregate of the installment payments theretofore made with respect to such Fiscal Year is less than the Additional Minimum Rent due for such Fiscal Year then Tenant shall pay the balance or excess, as the case may be, together with interest thereon determined as set forth below in this paragraph, to Landlord concurrently with the submission of the Annual Operations Statement. Interest shall accrue on payments pursuant to this paragraph at the Disbursement Rate from the date when first due and payable until the date when the adjusted amount is fully paid in the manner as set forth above, except to the extent of de minimus adjustments of not more than ten percent (10%) of the amount initially paid resulting from the calculation method used or unintentional errors which could not reasonably have been avoided by reasonable care and diligence.

3.4 Additional Charges. In addition to the Minimum Rent and Additional Minimum Rent payable hereunder, Tenant shall pay to the appropriate parties and discharge as and when due and payable hereunder the following (collectively the “Additional Charges”):

3.4.1 Taxes and Assessments. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all taxes and assessments required to be paid pursuant to Article 8.

Landlord shall not be responsible or liable in any way whatsoever for the quality, quantity, impairment, interruption, stoppage, or other interference with any utility service, including, without limitation, water, air conditioning, heat, gas, electric current for light and power, telephone, or any other utility service provided to or serving the Leased Property. No interruption, termination or cessation of utility services shall relieve Tenant of its duties and obligations pursuant to this Lease, including, without limitation, its obligation to pay all Rent as and when the same shall be due hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby agrees to execute any reasonable documentation and to otherwise reasonably cooperate with Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, in taking any action necessary or required by any utility provider to obtain or restore utility service at the Leased Property.

3.4.3 Insurance Premiums. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all premiums for the insurance coverage required to be maintained pursuant to Article 9.

3.4.4 Licenses and Permits.

- 28 -


by Landlord and Tenant to be maintained by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall assign, transfer or otherwise convey any licenses or Permits maintained in Tenant’s name to Landlord or Landlord’s designee, to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Laws.

3.4.5 Sales Tax. Simultaneously with each payment of Rent and Additional Charges hereunder, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any applicable sales, use, excise or similar or other tax on any such Rent and Additional Charges, whether the same be levied, imposed or assessed by the State in which the Leased Property is located or any Governmental Agencies, but specifically excluding any federal, state or local taxes, franchise taxes, capital, estate, succession, inheritance, value added, or similar tax or charge or substitute therefore, imposed on Landlord’s net income. Landlord shall, upon written request by Tenant, provide to Tenant on an annual basis such reasonable information in Landlord’s possession or control as shall be necessary to enable Tenant to pay such tax.

3.4.6 Other Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all other amounts, liabilities and obligations arising in connection with the Tenant’s use, occupation or operation of the Leased Property, except for (i) debt service or any related costs and expenses in connection with any Indebtedness of Landlord, (ii) Landlord’s federal, state or local taxes, franchise taxes, capital, estate, succession, inheritance, value added, or similar tax or charge or substitute therefor, with respect to the Rent and other amounts received by Landlord under this Lease, or (iii) those obligations expressly stated not to be an obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Lease (collectively, “Landlord Charges”).

3.4.7 Penalties and Interest; Filing. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid every fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added for non payment or late payment of the items referenced in this Section 3.4. Tenant shall prepare and file at its expense, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws, all tax returns and other reports in respect of any Additional Charge as may be required by Governmental Agencies.

3.5 Landlord Advances. Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Lease, if Tenant does not pay or discharge all Additional Charges when due, and provide proof of payment if requested by Landlord or, in the alternative, proof of Tenant’s contest of said Additional Charges and, in such case, a bond or other security as reasonably required by Landlord in its sole discretion to cover any lien filed against the Leased Property or other liability affecting the Leased Property related to the contest of the Additional Charges, Landlord shall have the right but not the obligation to pay such Additional Charges on behalf of Tenant. If Landlord shall make any such expenditure for which Tenant is responsible or liable under this Lease, or if Tenant shall become obligated to Landlord under this Lease for any other sum besides Minimum Rent or Additional Minimum Rent as hereinabove provided, the amount thereof shall be deemed to constitute “Additional Rent” and shall be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord, together with interest at the Overdue Rate and all applicable sales or other taxes thereon, if any, simultaneously with the next succeeding monthly installment of Minimum Rent or at such other time as may be expressly provided in this Lease for the payment of the same.

3.6 Late Payment of Rent. If Tenant fails to make any payment of Rent on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date such payment is due and payable, Tenant shall pay to

 

- 29 -


Landlord an administrative late charge of five percent (5%) of the amount of such payment. In addition, such past due payment shall bear interest at the Overdue Rate from the date first due until paid. Such late charge and interest shall constitute Additional Rent and shall be due and payable with the next installment of Rent due hereunder.

3.7 Net Lease. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that both parties intend that this Lease shall be and constitute what is generally referred to in the real estate industry as a “triple net” or “absolute net” lease, such that Tenant shall be obligated hereunder to pay all costs and expenses incurred with respect to, and associated with, the Leased Property and all personal property thereon and therein and the business operated thereon and therein, including, without limitation, all taxes and assessments, utility charges, insurance costs, maintenance costs and repair, replacement and restoration expenses (all as more particularly herein provided), together with any and all other assessments, charges, costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever related to, or associated with, the Leased Property, the use, occupation or operation thereof, and the Business operated thereon and therein, other than Landlord Charges; provided, however, that Landlord shall nonetheless be obligated to pay Landlord’s federal, state or local taxes, franchise taxes, capital, estate, succession, inheritance, value added, or similar tax or charge or substitute therefore with respect to the Rent and other amounts received by Landlord under this Lease. Except as expressly provided herein, Landlord shall bear no cost or expense of any type or nature with respect to, or associated with, the Leased Property, or the use, occupation or operation thereof. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, it is agreed and intended that Rent payable hereunder by Tenant shall be paid without notice, demand, counterclaim, set off, deduction or defense and without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction and that Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent throughout the Term and any applicable Extended Term is absolute and unconditional and 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 Applicable Laws, including any inability to occupy or use the Leased Property by reason of such non compliance; (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 condition 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 Lease by any trustee or receiver of Tenant or any other Person or by any court, in any such proceedings; (g) any right or claim that Tenant has or might have against any Person, including, without limitation, Landlord or any vendor, manufacturer or contractor of or for the Leased Property (other than a claim resulting from any willful misconduct or gross negligence of Landlord); (h) any failure on the part of Landlord or any other Person to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Lease, or of any other agreement; (i) any invalidity, unenforceability, rejection or disaffirmance of this Lease by operation of law or otherwise against or by Tenant or

 

- 30 -


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. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease, this Lease shall be non-cancelable by Tenant for any reason whatsoever and, except as expressly provided in this Lease, 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 Lease or to any diminution, abatement or reduction of Rent payable hereunder. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease, 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 Lease, and Tenant expressly waives the right to perform any such action at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law.

3.8 No Abatement of Rent. No abatement, diminution or reduction (a) of Rent, charges or other compensation, or (b) of Tenant’s other obligations hereunder shall be allowed to Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant, under any circumstances or for any reason whatsoever and to the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby waives the application of any local or state statutes, land rules, regulations or ordinance providing to the contrary.

3.9 Tenant Security Deposit.

3.9.1 Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account. With respect to the Leases on an aggregate basis, on or prior to the date hereof, Landlords (or a Parent or designated Affiliate of Landlords) shall establish an interest bearing security deposit reserve account in a bank (the “Deposit Bank”) designated by Landlords (or a Parent or designated Affiliate of Landlords) (the “Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account”), and shall maintain monthly minimum balances therein in accordance with the “Required Variable Security Deposit Reserve Balance Schedule” table set forth on Schedule 3.9 attached hereto, subject to Section 21.5 hereof (the “Required Variable Security Deposit Reserve Balance(s)”). Accordingly, as of the date hereof, the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account shall have a minimum balance of $1,950,000.00. The Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account shall be established in Landlords’ (or Landlords’ Parent’s or Landlords’ designated Affiliate’s) name and control, and Tenant shall not attempt to draw or draft any funds in such Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account. Landlords (and/or Landlords’ Parent or designated Affiliate) shall be the only signatories on the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account. All interest earned on the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account shall be added to and shall remain a part of the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a copy of all statements related to the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account received by Landlord from the Deposit Bank within five (5) Business Days of Landlord’s receipt of same, or, at Landlord’s discretion, Landlord shall cause the Deposit Bank to deliver duplicates of such statements to Tenant in the same manner that the Deposit Bank provides same to Landlord. Upon an Event of Default by Tenant hereunder, all funds then on deposit in the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account shall be deemed and treated as a

 

- 31 -


Security Deposit (as defined in Section 3.9.2 below) and, in addition to and not exclusive of any other remedies available under this Lease, Landlord may use, apply or retain all or any portion of the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account for the payment of any Rent, the funding of Capex Reserve deficiencies, the funding of Additional Charges or other charges in Default, or for the payment of any sum to which Landlord may become obligated by reason of such Event of Default and Tenant shall have no further right or interest therein or claim with respect to thereto.

3.9.1.1 Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account Balances.

(a) If at any time the actual balance in the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account exceeds the then Required Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account Balance (such excess amount referred to herein as the “Excess Reserve Account Funds”), Tenant may request Landlord release such Excess Reserve Account Funds from the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account and return same to Tenant. In such case, Landlord agrees to return such Excess Reserve Account Funds to Tenant pursuant to the preceding sentence within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of Tenant’s written request, provided that Tenant is not then in Default hereunder. Tenant hereby agrees that it shall use any and all such Excess Reserve Account Funds returned to Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.9.1.2 solely for Working Capital purposes.

(b) If on the tenth (10th ) day of any Accounting Period identified on Schedule 3.9 the actual balance in the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account is less than the then Required Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account Balance (such deficient amount referred to herein as the “Reserve Account Deficiency Amount”), Tenant shall deposit the Reserve Account Deficiency Amount into the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account no later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the applicable Accounting Period. Tenant’s failure to deposit the Reserve Account Deficiency Amount into the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account within five (5) Business Days after the fifteenth (15th) day of the applicable Accounting Period shall constitute a Default by Tenant hereunder, and Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Lease and exercise all other rights and remedies afforded under Article 12 and the other applicable provisions of this Lease with respect thereto.

3.9.2 Conversion to Security Deposit. Upon Tenant’s satisfaction of the Release Tests in full, $10,000,000.00 of the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account (or such lesser Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account Balance amount as may then be applicable pursuant to Section 21.5 hereof) shall immediately convert to a security deposit (the “Security Deposit”), to be held by Landlords (or a Parent of Landlord) as security for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms and obligations set forth in this Lease and each Affiliated Lease. To the extent that there are funds in excess of the $10,000,000.00 then on deposit in the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account upon such conversion (or such lesser Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account Balance amount as may then be applicable pursuant to Section 21.5 hereof), Landlord shall return such excess funds to Tenant within a commercially reasonable time period after the Security Deposit is established. If, at any time after the Variable Security Deposit Reserve Account is converted to a Security Deposit in accordance with the foregoing, an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing under this Lease or any Affiliated Lease, then in addition to and not exclusive of any other remedies available under this Lease,

 

- 32 -


Landlord may use, apply or retain all or any portion of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent, the funding of Additional Charges or other charges in Default, or for the payment of any sum to which Landlord may become obligated by reason of such Event of Default. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event Tenant fails to timely deposit into the Capex Reserve any amounts which are required to be deposited by Tenant pursuant to Section 5.2.2 hereof, then Landlord may use the Security Deposit to fund such amounts and Tenant shall replenish the amount of the Security Deposit so expended to Landlord upon receipt of written notice from Landlord. If Landlord so uses or applies all or any portion of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall, within five (5) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to the full amount of the Security Deposit. Landlord or Landlord’s Parent shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from their general accounts and may commingle the Security Deposit with other funds of Landlord or Landlord’s Parent. If Tenant performs all of its obligations hereunder and under the applicable Affiliated Leases, at the expiration of the Term, and after Tenant has vacated all of the applicable Leased Properties, then the Security Deposit, or so much thereof as has not been applied or used by Landlord as provided in this Lease or the Affiliated Leases, shall be returned to Tenant, without payment of interest or other increment for its use. No trust relationship is created herein between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the Security Deposit. At Landlord’s election, Landlords and Tenant shall enter into a security deposit pooling agreement, in form and substance substantially similar to the Terminated Security Deposit Pooling Agreement, reflecting that the Security Deposit is deemed and treated as a “pooled” aggregate security deposit pursuant to the terms of this Article 3 and Article 3 of the Affiliated Leases.

3.10 Security for Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the Security Deposit constitutes security for the faithful observance and performance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be observed and performed and for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and obligations set forth in each Affiliated Lease. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing under this Lease or any Affiliated Lease, Landlord may, at its option and without prejudice to any other remedy which Landlord may have on account thereof, appropriate and apply the amount of the Security Deposit in accordance with the terms set forth herein and as may be necessary to compensate Landlord toward the payment of the Rent or other sums due Landlord under this Lease or under any Affiliated Lease as a result of such breach by Tenant. It is understood and agreed that the Security Deposit is not to be considered as prepaid rent, nor shall damages hereunder be limited to the amount of the Security Deposit.

3.11 Security Agreement. Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a security interest in the Security Deposit as security for Tenant’s obligations to Landlord hereunder and agrees that, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Landlord, Landlord shall have all rights of a secured party under applicable law with respect to such proceeds. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver all such instruments as may be required by Landlord to evidence and/or perfect these security interests. At Tenant’s expense, Landlord may file at the state and county Uniform Commercial Code filing offices any financing statement or other instrument needed to evidence and/or perfect these security interests. Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a power of attorney to execute and file any financing statement or other instrument needed to evidence and/or perfect

 

- 33 -


Landlord’s security interest, which power is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable during the Term.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have no liability for any Hazardous Substance existing at the Leased Property as of the date of the Original Lease in violation of any Applicable Law, except to the extent any action or inaction of Tenant or any manager of Tenant, or of any employee, agent or representative of Tenant or any manager of Tenant, contributes to or compounds the effects of such Hazardous Substance.

Tenant shall not discharge or permit to be discharged into any septic facility or sanitary sewer system serving the Leased Property any Hazardous Substance(s), toxic or hazardous sewage or waste other than that which is permitted by Applicable Law or which is normal

Any Hazardous Substance(s) toxic or hazardous sewage or waste which is produced or generated in connection with the use or operation of the Leased Property shall be handled and disposed of as required by and in strict compliance with all Applicable Law(s), or shall be pre-treated to the level of domestic wastewater, as specified by Applicable Law(s), prior to discharge into any septic facility or sanitary sewer system serving the Leased Property.

Within ten (10) days from the date of the Original Lease, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall cause a qualified properly licensed professional environmental engineering/consulting firm (“EP”), approved by Landlord in its reasonable discretion, to prepare a best management practice protocol in strict compliance with Applicable Law(s) (“BMPP”) to prevent any future Releases (as defined hereafter) during the Term of this Lease of Hazardous Substances to, at, in, on or under the Environment, from or otherwise associated with the Permitted Use, including and not by way of limitation, any Releases of petroleum, grease, herbicides and/or pesticides associated with the existing golf course maintenance building, cart storage building and wash area. The draft BMPP shall be made available to Landlord for review, comment and approval within twenty-five (25) days from the date of the Original Lease. Tenant shall fully implement the final BMPP within twenty-five (25) days from the date that Landlord approves the BMPP.

Any and all abatement,

 

- 36 -


management and removal of HUD Materials from the Leased Property shall be undertaken at Tenant’s sole cost, charge and expense, which cost, charge and expense may be paid from the Capex Reserve pursuant to Article 5 hereof. Tenant shall also be liable for any cost, charge, expense or other damages which Landlord may incur as a result of the failure of Tenant to timely comply with its obligations, if any, under this provision. If the Tenant fails to complete and/or fully implement the O&M Plan, then the Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake, complete and/or implement the O&M Plan, or any portion thereof, and all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith shall be added to the Adjusted Lease Basis. The O&M Plan obligation shall terminate when all HUD Materials have been properly abated at and disposed of from the Leased Property.

Further, in addition to Tenant’s payment obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall pay all sums charged, levied or assessed under any restrictive covenants, declaration, reciprocal easement agreement or other title exceptions, equipment leases, leases and all other agreements affecting the Leased Property whether as of the date of this Lease or hereafter, and promptly as the same become due and shall promptly furnish Landlord evidence of payment thereof, unless contested in good faith by Tenant and, in such case, Tenant shall provide to Landlord a bond or other security as reasonably required by Landlord in its sole discretion to cover any lien filed against the Leased Property or other liability affecting the Leased Property related to the contest of any sums charged, levied or assessed under any restrictive covenants, declaration, reciprocal easement agreement or other title exceptions, equipment leases, leases and all other agreements affecting the Leased Property.

ARTICLE 5

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS

5.1 Tenant’s Obligations. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep the Leased Property in good order and repair, and shall promptly make all necessary and appropriate repairs and replacements thereto of every kind and nature, whether interior or exterior, structural or nonstructural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen or arising by reason of a condition existing prior to the commencement of the Term and whether or not necessitated by wear, tear, obsolescence or defects, latent or otherwise, and shall use all reasonable precautions to prevent damage or injury. All repairs shall be made in a good, workmanlike manner, consistent with the industry standards for other Golf Course Facilities, in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local statutes, ordinances, by laws, codes, rules and regulations relating to any such work. In addition, Tenant shall also, at its sole cost and expense, put, keep, replace and maintain Tenant’s Personal Property in good repair and in good, safe and substantial order, howsoever the necessity or desirability for repairs may occur, and whether or not necessitated by wear, tear, obsolescence or defects. Tenant may at any time and from time to time remove and dispose of any of Tenant’s Personal Property which has become obsolete or unfit for use or which is no longer useful in the operation of the Business; provided, however, that Tenant’s Personal Property so disposed of shall be promptly replaced with other Tenant’s Personal Property not necessarily of the same character, but of at least equal usefulness and quality as, and having a value at least equal to the value of, those disposed of, and in any event in accordance with and in compliance with the standards required by and the provisions of this Lease. Tenant shall further at all times maintain the grounds, landscaping and golf course in accordance with the standards of Comparable Golf Course Facilities.

5.2 Capex Reserve.

5.2.1 On or prior to the date hereof, Tenant shall establish an interest bearing reserve account (the “Capex Reserve”) in a bank designated by Tenant and approved by Landlord. All interest earned on the Capex Reserve shall be added to and shall remain a part of the Capex Reserve. Both Tenant and Landlord shall be signatories on the Capex Reserve, provided only one signature shall be required to withdraw funds and Landlord agrees that so long

 

- 39 -


as Tenant is not in Default hereunder, Landlord shall not be required to sign on any checks and Landlord shall not withdraw any funds from such account. Upon the occurrence and continuation of any Default or an Event of Default hereunder, the Tenant shall no longer be an authorized signatory on the Capex Reserve account and shall not be permitted to utilize funds from the Capex Reserve for any purpose whatsoever without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. Such account shall be established in Landlord’s (or Landlord’s Parent or Landlord’s designated Affiliate’s) name and control for the benefit of Tenant and shall not include or contemplate “overdraft protection” and Tenant shall not request or attempt to draw or draft any funds which are not actually on deposit in such Capex Reserve account. The purpose of the Capex Reserve is to cover the cost of the following, to the extent carried out in accordance with this Lease (collectively, “Capex Reserve Expenditures”):

(a) Replacements (including P&E Replacements), renewals and additions to the P&E located at the Land or used in connection with the Business (other than Inventory); and

(b) Repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals, replacements and additions, whether routine, non routine or major, to the Leased Improvements and/or the Golf Course Facilities, including without limitation those which are normally capitalized under GAAP such as repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals, replacements and additions to the structure, the exterior facade, the mechanical, electrical, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing and vertical transportation elements of the Leased Improvements, which expenditures Tenant believes should be made for the Leased Property for the following Fiscal Year.

5.2.2 Commencing with the Effective Date and continuing throughout the Term, Tenant shall on the fifteenth (15th) day of each Accounting Period, transfer into the Capex Reserve for the Leases an amount equal to the percentage of Aggregate Total Facility Revenues achieved for the immediately preceding Accounting Period in accordance with the minimum and maximum levels of Aggregate Total Facility Revenues and corresponding percentages set forth on Schedule 5.2 attached hereto (the “Annual Capex Reserve Percentage”); provided that the Annual Capex Reserve Percentage for Fiscal Year 2009 shall be two percent (2.0%) and, accordingly, on or before the date hereof, Tenant shall deposit the amount of $326,593.00 into the Capex Reserve to satisfy the initial Capex Reserve requirements under the Leases as of the date hereof. The funds contained in the Capex Reserve shall be available for all Leased Properties and Landlords and Tenant shall cooperate in order to most efficiently manage the funds contained in the Capex Reserve based on (a) the amounts contained in the Capex Reserve, (b) the type and timing of the Capex Reserve, and (c) expenditure needs and requirements of all of the Leased Properties. At the time Tenant provides Landlord the documentation described in Section 3.2 hereof, Tenant shall also deliver to Landlord a statement setting forth the total amount of deposits made to, and expenditures from, the Capex Reserve for the preceding Fiscal Year.

5.2.3 On or before October 31 of each Fiscal Year, Tenant shall prepare an estimate (the “Capex Reserve Estimate”) of Capex Reserve Expenditures anticipated during the ensuing Fiscal Year and shall submit such Capex Reserve Estimate to Landlord for its review.

 

- 40 -


Such Capex Reserve Estimate shall reflect by line item the projected budget for Capex Reserve Expenditures for the Leased Property and assumptions on the basis of which such line items were prepared in narrative form if necessary, including separate budget items for all projected expenditures for replacements, substitutions and additions to Tenant’s Personal Property. Tenant shall provide to Landlord reasonable additional detail, information and assumptions used in the preparation of the Capex Reserve Estimate as requested by Landlord and shall also submit to Landlord with the Capex Reserve Estimate good faith longer range projections of planned Capex Reserve Expenditures for an additional three (3) Fiscal Years. Tenant shall review the Capex Reserve Estimate with Landlord, and subject to Landlord’s approval, Tenant shall implement such Capex Reserve Estimate for the successive Fiscal Year (during which it shall, if approved by Landlord, be referred to as the “Approved Capex Reserve Estimate”). In addition, Landlord shall have the right to disapprove any expenditures to be made pursuant to the Capex Reserve Estimate which are not in compliance with Applicable Laws. Further, Landlord’s approval of any expenditure pursuant to the Capex Reserve Estimate shall not be, or be deemed to be, an assumption by Landlord of any liability in connection with the expenditures made. Pending resolution of any dispute, the specific disputed item of the Capex Reserve Estimate shall be suspended and replaced for the Fiscal Year in question by an amount equal to the lesser of (a) that proposed by Tenant for such Fiscal Year or (b) such budget item for the Fiscal Year prior thereto. Tenant shall not make any expenditures from the Capex Reserve, nor shall Tenant deviate from the Approved Capex Reserve Estimate without the prior approval of Landlord, except in the case of Emergency where immediate action is necessary to prevent imminent danger to person or property (an “Emergency”). In such circumstances, Tenant shall use good faith efforts to obtain the approval of Landlord if practicable and if such efforts would not pose a risk to the condition of the Leased Property or harm to any person, and in any event provide notice to Landlord as promptly as possible of such expenditure, the amount of and the reason for the same. If, during any Fiscal Year, an event occurs that requires a material deviation from the Approved Capex Reserve Estimate previously approved by Landlord for such Fiscal Year, promptly following such event, Tenant shall revise the Approved Capex Reserve Estimate for the remainder of such Fiscal Year and shall submit same to Landlord for Landlord’s review and approval, which review and approval process shall be completed in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Section 5.2.3.

5.2.4 Tenant shall, consistent with the Approved Capex Reserve Estimate, from time to time make Capex Reserve Expenditures from the Capex Reserve as it reasonably deems necessary in accordance with Section 5.2.1 and Section 5.2.3. Tenant shall provide to Landlord, within thirty (30) days after the end of each Accounting Period, an itemized statement setting forth Capex Reserve Expenditures made to date during the Fiscal Year, including appropriate supporting documentation such as receipts, invoices or other relevant information required to support and account for such Capex Reserve Expenditures; provided, however, that any such supporting documentation shall not be greater than ninety (90) days old without the prior written approval of Landlord.

5.2.5 In the event Capex Reserve Expenditures not set forth in the Approved Capex Reserve Estimate are required (a) as a result of Legal Requirements, a Force Majeure Event and/or are otherwise required for the continued safe and orderly operation of the Leased Property, (b) due to an emergency threatening the Leased Property, its guests, invitees or

 

- 41 -


employees, or (c) because the continuation of a given condition will subject Tenant or Landlord to civil or criminal liability, then Tenant shall request Landlord’s approval in writing specifying the amount of and the reason for such expenditure, approval for which Landlord shall promptly grant or withhold, in its reasonable discretion. In the event that Landlord does not promptly respond, Tenant’s request shall be deemed to have been approved by Landlord, as submitted by Tenant.

5.2.6 All interest earned on the Capex Reserve shall be added to and become a part thereof, and all property purchased with funds from the Capex Reserve shall be and remain the property of Landlord and shall be treated as Leased Property pursuant to Section 2.1(e) hereof. All funds in the Capex Reserve shall be and remain the property of Landlord throughout the Term, and following expiration or earlier termination of this Lease 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 5.2 out of the Capex Reserve, ownership of the Capex Reserve shall be vested in Landlord. It is understood and agreed that the Capex Reserve pursuant to this Lease shall be maintained and used solely in connection with the Leased Properties.

5.2.7 If Landlord wishes to grant a security interest in or create another encumbrance on its interest in the Capex Reserve in connection with a Facility Mortgage, all or any part of the existing or future funds therein, or any general intangible in connection therewith, the instrument granting such security interest or creating such other encumbrance shall expressly provide that such security interest or encumbrance is prior in right to the rights of Tenant with respect to the Capex Reserve as set forth herein.

5.2.8 If, at any time, or from time to time, funds in the Capex Reserve shall be insufficient or are reasonably projected by Tenant to be insufficient for necessary and permitted Capex Reserve Expenditures, or funding is necessary for unforeseen expenditures which are otherwise necessary and permitted, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 5.2.5 hereof (collectively, the “Unfunded Capex Reserve Expenditures”), Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof, which Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the Unfunded Capex Reserve Expenditures and the estimated cost thereof, and Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, shall fund the amount necessary to pay for such Unfunded Capex Reserve Expenditures and the amounts so funded shall constitute part of Landlord’s Additional Investment.

5.3 Initial Capital Expenditures. Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge that, pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Agreement, that certain Agreement Regarding Initial Capital Investment and Improvements, dated November 30, 2007, between CIP and Tenant (as the same may be amended, the “Initial Capital Investment Agreement”), pursuant to which CIP agreed to fund certain initial capital expenditures up to an aggregate amount of Twelve Million and No/100 Dollars ($12,000,000.00) allocated among the Leased Property and the Pool 2 Leased Properties (the “CIP’s Initial Capital Investment”), has been terminated in its entirety on and effective as of the date hereof. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that any and all amounts of CIP’s Initial Capital Investment funded by CIP prior to the date hereof shall constitute a portion of Landlord’s Additional Investment and, therefore, shall be part of the Adjusted Lease Basis hereunder.

ARTICLE 6

IMPROVEMENTS, ETC.

6.1 Prohibition. Except for work funded by Capex Reserve Expenditures and Minor Alterations as hereinafter expressly provided in Section 6.2, no portion of the Leased Property shall be demolished, removed or altered by Tenant in any manner whatsoever without the prior written consent and approval of Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Tenant shall be entitled and obligated to undertake all alterations to the Leased Property required by any Legal Requirements and, in such event, Tenant shall comply with the provisions of Section 6.2 below.

Landlord hereby agrees that Tenant shall be entitled to perform such Minor Alterations on or about the Leased Improvements; provided, however, that the cost of the same shall not exceed Ten Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) per occurrence, and the same shall not weaken or impair the structural strength of any buildings or other structural improvements which constitute part of the Leased Improvements, or alter their exterior design or appearance, materially impair the use of any of the service facilities located in, or fundamentally affect the character or suitability of, the Leased Improvements for the Permitted Use specified in Section 4.1.1 above or materially lessen or impair their value. If Tenant elects to perform any Minor Alterations, the cost thereof shall be borne by Tenant unless the Minor Alteration constitutes an Approved Capex Reserve Estimate or an Unfunded Capex Reserve Expenditure which has been approved by Landlord pursuant to Section 5.2.8 hereof.

6.2.2 Additions, Expansions and Structural Alterations. All alterations, additions, expansions and renovations to the Leased Improvements which do not qualify as Minor Alterations shall constitute “Major Alterations”. Except as expressly permitted in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2.1 above, nothing in this Article 6 or elsewhere in this Lease shall be deemed to authorize Tenant to construct and erect any additions to or expansions of the Leased Improvements, or perform any Major Alterations; it being understood that Tenant may do so only with the prior written consent and approval of Landlord, which consent and approval may be withheld by Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion, and may be conditioned upon the payment by Tenant to Landlord of all reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in evaluating the same providing additional insurance and such other conditions as Landlord may impose. If Tenant elects to perform any Major Alterations, the cost thereof shall be borne by Tenant unless the Major Alteration constitutes an Approved Capex Reserve Estimate or an Unfunded Capex Reserve Expenditure which has been approved by Landlord pursuant to Section 5.2.8 hereof.

6.3 Renovations to Golf Course. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall not be permitted to make any renovations or improvements to the golf course, including the tees, fairways, bunkers, greens, water hazards, or other landscaping features

 

- 43 -


forming a part thereof, that materially change the character or current design thereof without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld at Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. Tenant shall be permitted to make any renovations or improvements to the golf course that are either routine or remedial as long as they do not change the design or character of the golf course, including the tees, fairways, bunkers, greens, water hazards, or other landscaping features forming a part thereof, and the same shall be deemed to be a Minor Alteration pursuant to Section 6.2.1 hereof.

6.4 Conditions to Capex Reserve Expenditures, Permitted Renovations and Major Alterations. In connection with any Capex Reserve Expenditures, Permitted Renovations or Major Alterations of the Leased Property the following conditions shall be met, to wit:

(a) Before the commencement of any such work, plans and specifications therefor or a detailed itemization thereof prepared by a licensed architect approved by Landlord or other design professional appropriate under the circumstances approved by Landlord and Tenant shall be furnished to Landlord for its review and approval. Such approval shall not constitute Landlord’s agreement that the plans and specification are in compliance with Applicable Laws or an assumption by Landlord of any liability in connection with the renovation work contemplated thereby.

(b) Before the commencement of any such work Tenant shall, with Landlord’s cooperation, obtain all necessary or required approvals thereof by all Governmental Agencies having or claiming jurisdiction of or over the Leased Property, and with any public utility companies having an interest therein.

6.4.1.2 Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that all such work will be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with the plans and specifications therefor approved by Landlord, the terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease and all governmental requirements.

6.4.1.3 Landlord shall have the right to inspect any such work, at Tenant’s expense, at all times during normal working hours using such inspector(s) as it may deem necessary so long as such inspections do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s work (but Landlord shall not thereby assume any responsibility for the proper performance of the work in accordance with the terms of this Lease, nor any liability arising from the improper performance thereof).

(a) All such work shall be performed free of any Liens on Landlord’s fee simple interest on or Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property.

 

- 44 -


(b) Upon substantial completion of any such work, Tenant shall procure any necessary or required certificate of occupancy, certificate of completion or other final approvals, if applicable, from the appropriate Governmental Agencies and provide copies of same to Landlord.

6.5 Salvage. Other than Tenant’s Personal Property, all materials which are scrapped or removed in connection with maintenance and repair performed pursuant to Article 5 and the making of Permitted Renovations pursuant to Article 6 shall be disposed of by Tenant and the net proceeds thereof, if any, shall be deposited in the Capex Reserve.

ARTICLE 7

LANDLORD’S INTEREST NOT SUBJECT TO LIENS

7.1 Liens, Generally. Tenant shall not, directly or indirectly, create or cause to be imposed, claimed or filed upon the Leased Property, or any of Tenant’s assets, properties or income or any portion thereof, related to the Leased Property or upon the interest of Landlord therein, any Lien of any nature whatsoever. If, because of any act or omission of Tenant, any such Lien shall be imposed, claimed or filed by any party whosoever or whatsoever, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, cause the same to be promptly (and in no event later than thirty (30) days following receipt of notice of such Lien) fully paid and satisfied or otherwise promptly discharged of record (by bonding or otherwise) and Tenant shall indemnify, save, pay, insure and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all costs, liabilities, suits, penalties, claims and demands whatsoever, and from and against any and all reasonable attorney’s fees, at both trial and all appellate levels, resulting or on account thereof and therefrom. In the event that Tenant shall fail to comply with the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1, Landlord shall have the option, but not the obligation, of paying, satisfying or otherwise discharging (by bonding or otherwise) such Lien and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord, upon demand and as Additional Rent, for all sums so paid and for all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon, until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to enter into leases for new or replacement items of P&E (collectively, “P&E Leases”), provided that the aggregate rent payments for all such P&E Leases do not exceed One Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($150,000.00) per year.

7.2 Construction or Mechanics Liens. Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property shall not be subjected to Liens of any nature by reason of Tenant’s construction, alteration,

 

- 45 -


renovation, repair, restoration, replacement or reconstruction of any improvements on or in the Leased Property, or by reason of any other act or omission of Tenant (or of any person claiming by, through or under Tenant) including, but not limited to, construction, mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens. All persons dealing with Tenant are hereby placed on notice that such persons shall not look to Landlord or to Landlord’s credit or assets (including Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property) for payment or satisfaction of any obligations incurred in connection with the construction, alteration, renovation, repair, restoration, replacement or reconstruction thereof by or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant has no power, right or authority to subject Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property to any construction, mechanic’s or materialmen’s lien or claim of lien. If a Lien, a claim of lien or an order for the payment of money shall be imposed against the Leased Property on account of work performed, or alleged to have been performed, for or on behalf of Tenant, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after written notice of the imposition of such Lien, claim or order, cause the Leased Property to be released therefrom by the payment of the obligation secured thereby or by furnishing a bond or by any other method prescribed or permitted by law. If a Lien is released, Tenant shall thereupon furnish Landlord with a written instrument of release which has been recorded or filed in the appropriate office of land records of the County in which the Leased Property is located, and otherwise sufficient to establish the release as a matter of record. Before commencing any work relating to alterations, additions, or improvements affecting the Leased Property, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of the expected date of commencement thereof. Landlord shall then have the right at any time and from time to time to post and maintain on the Land and Leased Improvements such notices as Landlord reasonably deems necessary to protect the Leased Property and Landlord from mechanics’ liens, materialmen’s liens, or any other Liens. In any event, Tenant shall pay when due all claims for labor or materials furnished to or for Tenant at or for use in the Land and Leased Improvements. Tenant shall not permit any mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens to be levied against the Leased Property for any labor or material furnished to Tenant or claimed to have been furnished to Tenant or to Tenant’s agents or contractors in connection with work of any character performed or claimed to have been performed on the Land or the Leased Improvements by or at the direction of Tenant, and shall immediately cause the release of any such Liens as provided hereinabove.

7.3 Contest of Liens. Tenant may, at its option, contest the validity of any Lien or claim of lien if Tenant shall have first posted an appropriate and sufficient bond in favor of the claimant or paid the appropriate sum into court, if permitted by and in strict compliance with Applicable Laws, and thereby obtained the release of the Leased Property from such Lien. If judgment is obtained by the claimant under any Lien, Tenant shall pay the same immediately after such judgment shall have become final and the time for appeal therefrom has expired without appeal having been taken. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, using counsel reasonably approved by Landlord, diligently defend the interests of Tenant and Landlord in any and all such suits; provided, however, that Landlord may, nonetheless, at its election and expense, engage its own counsel and assert its own defenses, in which event Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and make available to Landlord all information and data which Landlord deems necessary or desirable for such defense.

7.4 Notices of Commencement of Construction. If required by the laws of the State in which the Leased Property is located, prior to commencement by Tenant of any work on the

Leased Property which shall have been previously permitted by Landlord as provided in this Lease, Tenant shall record or file a notice of the commencement of such work or similar notice required by Applicable Law (the “Notice of Commencement”) in the land records of the County in which the Leased Property is located, identifying Tenant as the party for whom such work is being performed, stating such other matters as may be required by law and requiring the service of copies of all notices, Liens or claims of lien upon Landlord. Any such Notice of Commencement shall clearly reflect that the interest of Tenant in the Leased Property is that of a leasehold estate and shall also clearly reflect that the interest of Landlord as the fee simple owner of the Leased Property shall not be subject to construction, mechanics or materialmen’s liens on account of the work which is the subject of such Notice of Commencement. A copy of any such Notice of Commencement shall be furnished to and approved by Landlord and its attorneys prior to the recording or filing thereof, as aforesaid.

ARTICLE 8

Throughout the entire Term, Tenant shall bear, pay and discharge as Additional Charges and not later than the last day on which payment may be made without penalty or interest, any and all taxes, assessments, charges, levies, fees (including, without limitation, license, permit, inspection, authorization and similar fees) and other impositions and charges of every kind and nature whatsoever, extraordinary as well as ordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, and each and every installment thereof which shall or may during or with respect to the Term hereof accrue and/or be charged, laid, levied, assessed, or imposed upon, or arise in connection with, the use, occupancy, operation or possession of the Leased Property or any part thereof or the Business conducted thereon, including, without limitation, ad valorem real and personal property taxes, all taxes charged, laid, levied, assessed or imposed in lieu of or in addition to any of the foregoing by virtue of all present or future laws, ordinances, requirements, orders, directions, rules or regulations of Governmental Agencies, and all assessments and charges imposed pursuant to the Permitted Encumbrances or other documents of record affecting title to the Leased Property, whether or not such Additional Charges become due and payable during or after the Term. Tenant shall prepare and timely file all applicable returns required with respect to such taxes, assessments, impositions or charges, including, without limitation, all personal property tax returns required in connection with the Leased Property. In connection with Tenant’s preparation of such personal property tax returns, Landlord agrees to timely provide Tenant with a report listing all P&E owned by, acquired by and/or disposed of by Landlord during the applicable tax reporting period, together with all other information reasonably required by Tenant with respect to such P&E for purposes of the personal property tax return, which report shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of Landlord (or of Landlord’s general partner, if applicable) certifying that such report is true, correct and complete in all material respects. Upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall promptly furnish to Landlord satisfactory evidence of the payment of all such taxes, assessments, impositions or charges and copies of any such returns filed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be responsible for Landlord Charges or for Additional Charges due and payable after the expiration of the Term to the extent that the same relate and apply interests and benefits accruing to Landlord after the Term. Tenant shall have no right to approve any

 

- 47 -


Facility Mortgage or other documents relating to indebtedness of Landlord and Tenant shall have no responsibility to pay any tax, charge or imposition levied with respect to any Facility Mortgage.

8.2 Tenant’s Right to Contest Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right, after prior written notice to Landlord, to contest at its own expense the amount and validity of any taxes affecting the Leased Property by appropriate proceedings under Applicable Law conducted in good faith and with due diligence and to postpone or defer payment thereof, provided and so long as:

(a) Such proceedings shall operate to suspend the collection of such taxes with respect to the Leased Property;

(b) Neither the Leased Property nor any part thereof would be in immediate danger of being forfeited or lost by reason of such proceedings, postponement or deferment; and

(c) Tenant shall have furnished Landlord with security for payment of the contested taxes which is satisfactory to Landlord, and, in the event that the preconditions set forth in (a) and (b) above are no longer met, Landlord shall have the right to draw upon such security to pay and discharge the taxes in question and any Liens against the Leased Property arising thereunder.

8.3 Tax and Insurance Escrow Account. In the event any of the Events of Default specified in Section 12.1 hereunder shall occur, or upon request of a Mortgagee, Landlord shall have the right, by written notice to Tenant effective as of the date of such notice, to require Tenant to pay or cause to be paid into a separate account (the “Tax and Insurance Account”) to be established by Tenant with a lending institution or other third party escrow agent designated by Landlord (which Tax and Insurance Account shall not be removed from such lending institution or other third party escrow agent without the express prior approval of Landlord), and which Landlord may draw upon, a reserve amount sufficient to discharge the obligations of Tenant under Section 8.1 and Article 9 hereof (other than worker’s compensation insurance premiums) with respect to real estate taxes and insurance premiums for the applicable Fiscal Year as and when they become due (such amounts, the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Amount”). During each month commencing with the first full calendar month following the receipt of said notice from Landlord, Tenant shall deposit into the Tax and Insurance Account one twelfth (1/12th) of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Amount so that as each installment of insurance premiums and real estate taxes becomes due and payable, there are sufficient funds in the Tax and Insurance Account to pay the same. If the amount of such insurance premiums and real estate taxes has not been definitively ascertained by Tenant at the time when any such monthly deposit is to be paid, Landlord shall require payment of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Amount based upon the amount of premiums and real estate taxes paid for the preceding year, subject to adjustment as and when the amount of such premiums and real estate taxes are ascertained by Tenant. The Tax and Insurance Escrow Amount in the Tax and Insurance Account shall be and constitute additional security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations hereunder and shall be subject to Landlord’s security interest therein and shall, if there are sufficient funds in escrow, be used to pay taxes and insurance premiums when due. Landlord and Tenant shall execute such

documentation as may be necessary to create and maintain Landlord’s security interest in the Tax and Insurance Account.

All such policies described in Section 9.1 shall name Landlord, CNL Lifestyle Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, or its designated subsidiaries, affiliates or assigns, and any Mortgagee whose name and address has been provided to Tenant as additional insureds, Mortgagee’s loss payees, or mortgagees, as their interests may appear and to the extent of their indemnity.

In the event Tenant shall fail to effect such insurance as herein required, to pay the premiums therefor or to deliver such certificates to Landlord or any Mortgagee at the times required, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, subject to the provisions of Section 12.4, to acquire such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Rent, together with interest accrued thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date such payment is made until (but excluding) the date repaid.

ARTICLE 10

CASUALTY

10.1 Restoration and Repair. If during the Term the Leased Property shall be totally or partially destroyed and thereby rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice thereof. Either Landlord or Tenant may, by the giving of Notice thereof to the other party within sixty (60) days after such casualty occurs, terminate this Lease, without affecting any of the Affiliated Leases, whereupon Landlord shall be entitled to retain the insurance proceeds payable on account of such damage (exclusive of any business interruption insurance which shall be payable to Landlord only to the extent of Rent due through the date of such termination) and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any deductible; provided, however, in the event that the exercise by any Person of any of its rights with respect to the Leased Property pursuant to any of the Permitted Encumbrances shall cause damage or destruction to the Leased Property, or which actions render the Leased Property Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant shall not have the option to terminate this Lease and shall be obligated to promptly proceed with the complete restoration and repair of the Leased Property first using available proceeds from any insurance policy then in place naming Tenant as an insured party, plus the amount of any deductible thereunder. In the event that the total amount of such available insurance proceeds and any deductible to be paid by Tenant thereunder are insufficient to pay all necessary repair and restoration costs and expenses, Landlord and Tenant shall share equally any additional costs or expenses to repair and restore the same. Tenant further expressly acknowledges, understands and agrees that in the event that this Lease is terminated as aforesaid, Landlord may settle any insurance claims and Tenant shall, upon request of Landlord, cooperate in any such settlement. If during the Term, the Leased Property shall be destroyed or damaged in whole or in part by fire, windstorm or any other cause whatsoever, but the Leased Property either (i) is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use or (ii) is rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use but neither Landlord nor Tenant terminate this Lease in the manner provided above, then, Tenant shall give Landlord immediate Notice thereof and Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of Section 10.2 below, repair, reconstruct and replace the Leased Property, or the portion thereof so destroyed or damaged, at least to the extent of the value and character thereof existing immediately prior to such occurrence and in compliance with all Legal Requirements, including any alterations to the Leased Property required to be made by any Governmental Agencies due to any changes in code or building regulations (which Tenant acknowledges may increase the replacement value of the Leased Property which Tenant will then be required to insure, due to any changes in code or building regulations). All such restoration work shall be started as promptly as practicable and diligently completed at no out-of-pocket cost or expense to Landlord (using available insurance proceeds). Tenant shall, however, immediately take such action as is necessary to assure that the Leased Property (or any portion thereof), does not constitute a nuisance or otherwise present or constitute a health or safety hazard.

 

- 52 -


10.2 Escrow and Disbursement of Insurance Proceeds. If this Lease is not otherwise terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, then in the event of a casualty resulting in a loss to the Leased Improvements and/or P&E in an amount greater than One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) (as determined by an architect or engineer selected by Landlord), the proceeds of all insurance policies maintained by Tenant shall be deposited in Landlord’s name in an escrow account at a bank or other financial institution designated by Landlord, and shall be used by Tenant for the repair, reconstruction or restoration of the Leased Property to its original condition. Tenant shall, at the time of establishment of such escrow account and from time to time thereafter until said work shall have been completed and paid for, furnish Landlord with adequate evidence acceptable to Landlord that at all times the undisbursed portion of the escrowed insurance proceeds, together with any funds made available by Tenant, is sufficient to pay for the repair, reconstruction or restoration in its entirety. Landlord may, at its option, require, prior to advancement of said escrowed insurance proceeds (i) approval of plans and specifications by an architect or other design professional appropriate under the circumstances and approved by Landlord and Tenant (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) general contractors’ estimates, (iii) architect’s certificates, (iv) unconditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (v) evidence of approval by all Governmental Agencies and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, and (vi) such other terms as a Mortgagee or lender of Landlord may reasonably require. The escrowed insurance proceeds shall be disbursed by Landlord, not more than bi-weekly, upon (y) certification of the architect or engineer selected by Tenant (with the approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and having supervision of the work that such amounts are the amounts paid or payable for the repair, reconstruction or restoration and (z) submittal by Tenant of a written requisition and substantiation therefor on AIA Forms G702 and G703 (or on such other form or forms as may be reasonably acceptable to Landlord). Tenant shall obtain, and make available to Landlord, receipted bills and, upon completion of said work, full and final waivers of lien. In the event of a casualty resulting in a loss payment for the Leased Improvements in an amount equal to or less than the amount stated above, the proceeds shall be paid to Tenant, and shall be applied towards repair, reconstruction and restoration. Any and all loss adjustments with respect to losses payable hereunder shall require the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. All salvage resulting from any risk covered by insurance shall belong to Tenant, provided any rights to the same have been waived by the insurer. In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall be strictly liable and solely responsible for the amount of any deductible and shall pay for all repairs, reconstruction or alterations up to the full amount of such deductible (and provide evidence of such payment to Landlord by documentation reasonably acceptable to Landlord) before any insurance proceeds are used for repairs, reconstruction or alterations.

10.3 No Abatement of Rent. Unless terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 above, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all Additional Charges as and when required under this Lease shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any casualty to 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 10 shall be considered an express

 

- 53 -


agreement governing any event of casualty involving the Leased Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby waives the application of any local or state statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such abatement.

10.4 Tenant’s Property and Business Interruption Insurance. All insurance proceeds payable by reason of any loss of or damage to any of Tenant’s Personal Property and the business interruption insurance maintained for the benefit of Tenant shall be paid to Tenant; provided, however, no such payments shall diminish or reduce the insurance payments otherwise payable to or for the benefit of Landlord hereunder. Such business interruption proceeds shall be considered part of the Total Facility Revenues.

10.5 Restoration of Tenant’s Property. If Tenant is required to restore the Leased Property as hereinabove provided, Tenant 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.

10.6 Waiver. Tenant hereby waives to the maximum extent permitted by law, any statutory or common law rights of termination which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of the Leased Property and agrees that its rights shall be limited to those set forth in Section 10.1.

ARTICLE 11

CONDEMNATION

11.1 Total Condemnation, Etc. If the whole of the Leased Property shall be taken or condemned for any public or quasi public use or purpose, by right of eminent domain or by purchase in lieu thereof, or if a substantial portion of the Leased Property shall be so taken or condemned such that the portion or portions remaining is or are not sufficient and suitable for the continued operation thereof as required herein, so as to effectively render the Leased Property Unsuitable for its Permitted Use, then this Lease and the Term hereby granted shall cease and terminate (without prejudice to Landlord’s and Tenant’s respective rights to an award under Section 11.3 below), without affecting any of the Affiliated Leases, as of the date on which the Condemnor takes possession and all Rent shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord up to that date or refunded by Landlord to Tenant if Rent has previously been paid by Tenant beyond that date.

11.2 Partial Condemnation. If a portion of the Leased Property is taken, and the portion or portions remaining can be adapted and used for the conduct of the Business in accordance with the terms of this Lease, such that the Leased Property is not effectively rendered Unsuitable for its Permitted Use, then the Tenant shall, utilizing, as reasonably necessary, condemnation proceeds paid to Landlord from the Condemnor, promptly restore the remaining portion or portions thereof to a condition comparable to their condition at the time of such taking or condemnation, less the portion or portions lost by the taking, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect with no reduction or abatement of Rent.

 

- 54 -


11.3 Disbursement of Award. The entire award for the Leased Property or the portion or portions thereof so taken shall be apportioned between Landlord and Tenant as follows: (a) if this Lease terminates due to a taking or condemnation, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award; provided, however, that any portion of the award expressly made for the taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, and the taking of Tenant’s Personal Property shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant, and (b) if this Lease does not terminate due to such taking or condemnation, Tenant shall be entitled to the award to the extent required for restoration of the Leased Property, and Landlord shall be entitled to the balance of the award not applied to restoration. In any condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own award in conformity herewith, at its own expense. If this Lease does not terminate due to a taking or condemnation, Tenant shall, with due diligence, restore the remaining portion or portions of the Leased Property in the manner hereinabove provided to the extent of condemnation proceeds made available to Tenant. In such event, the proceeds of the award to be applied to restoration shall be deposited with a bank or financial institution designated by Landlord as if such award were insurance proceeds, and the amount so deposited will thereafter be treated in the same manner as insurance proceeds are to be treated under Section 10.2 of this Lease until the restoration has been completed and Tenant has been reimbursed for all the costs and expenses thereof. If the award is insufficient to pay for the restoration, Landlord shall be responsible for the remaining cost and expense of such restoration. All proceeds in excess of those required for restoration shall be disbursed to Landlord upon completion of such restoration.

11.4 No Abatement of Rent. This Lease 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 Lease shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any Condemnation involving the Leased Property. The provisions of this Article 11 shall be considered an express agreement governing any Condemnation involving the Leased Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such abatement shall have any application in such case.

ARTICLE 12

(b) Landlord may, pursuant to any prior notice required by law, and without terminating this Lease, peaceably or pursuant to appropriate legal proceedings, reenter, retake and resume possession of the Leased Property for the account of Tenant, make such alterations of and repairs and improvements to the Leased Property as may be reasonably necessary in order to relet the same or any part or parts thereof and, directly or through a qualified management or operating company which may include an Affiliated Person of Landlord, operate and manage the Leased Property, and relet or attempt to relet the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term or terms extending beyond the Term of this Lease), at such rents and upon such other terms and provisions as Landlord, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable. If Landlord takes possession and control of the Leased Property and operates the same, Tenant shall, for so long as Landlord is actively operating the Leased Property, have no obligation to operate the Leased Property but agrees that Landlord, any contract manager or operator, or any new tenant or sublessee may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, operate the Business under Tenant’s Permits, including, unless prohibited by Applicable Laws, its liquor license, if any, until same are issued in the name of the Landlord or the new manager/operator or tenant or sublessee, as applicable. In addition, Tenant will reasonably cooperate with Landlord in transferring, to the extent transferable, any of Tenant’s Permits which Landlord determines would be necessary or appropriate to continue to operate the Leased Property for its Permitted Use. If Landlord relets or attempts to relet the Leased Property, or obtains a contract manager or operator for the Leased Property, Landlord shall at its sole discretion determine the terms and provisions of any new lease or sublease, or management or operating agreement, and whether or not a particular proposed manager or operator, or new tenant or sublessee, is acceptable to Landlord. Upon any such reletting, or the operation of the Leased Property by a contract manager or operator, all rents or incomes received by the Landlord from such reletting or otherwise from the operation of the Leased Property shall be applied, (i) first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of recovering possession of the Leased Property, (ii) second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such reletting and or operation, including brokerage fees, advertising costs, reasonable attorney’s fees, a reasonable management fee (if considered necessary by good business practices), and the cost of any alterations and repairs reasonably required for such reletting or operation of the Leased Property; (iii) third, to the payment of any indebtedness, other than Rent, due hereunder from Tenant to the Landlord, (iv) fourth, to the payment of all Rent and other sums due and unpaid hereunder, and (v) fifth, the residue, if any, shall be held by the Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. If the rents received from such reletting or net income from the operation of the Leased Property during any period shall be less than the Rents and Additional Charges required to be paid during that period by the Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall promptly pay any such deficiency to the Landlord and failing the prompt payment thereof by Tenant to Landlord, Landlord shall immediately be entitled to institute legal proceedings for the recovery and collection of the same. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid at the time each payment of Minimum Rent, Additional Minimum Rent (if applicable) or any other sum

 

- 58 -


shall otherwise become due under this Lease, or, at the option of Landlord, at the end of the Term of this Lease. Landlord shall, in addition, be immediately entitled to sue for and otherwise recover from Tenant any other damages occasioned by or resulting from any abandonment of the Leased Property or other breach of or default under this Lease other than a default in the payment of Rent. No such reentry, retaking or resumption of possession of the Leased Property by the Landlord for the account of Tenant shall be construed as an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention shall be given to the Tenant or unless the termination of this Lease be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any such re entry and reletting or attempted reletting of the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof for the account of Tenant without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter, upon written notice to Tenant, elect to terminate this Lease or pursue any other remedy available to Landlord for Tenant’s previous breach of or default under this Lease.

(c) Landlord may, without reentering, retaking or resuming possession of the Leased Property, either, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion: (i) sue for all Rent and all other sums, charges, payments, costs and expenses due from Tenant to Landlord hereunder (discounted to present value) as they become due under this Lease, taking into account that Tenant’s right and option to pay the Rent hereunder on a monthly basis in any particular Fiscal Year is conditioned upon the absence of a Default on Tenant’s part in the performance of its obligations under this Lease, or (ii) accelerate the maturity and due date of the whole or any part of the Rent for the entire then remaining unexpired balance of the Term of this Lease, as well as all other sums, charges, payments, costs and expenses required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, including, without limitation, damages for breach or default of Tenant’s obligations hereunder in existence at the time of such acceleration, such that all sums due and payable under this Lease shall, following such acceleration, be treated as being and, in fact, be due and payable in advance as of the date of such acceleration. Landlord may then proceed to recover and collect all such unpaid Rent and other sums so sued for from Tenant by distress, levy, execution or otherwise. Regardless of which of the foregoing alternative remedies is chosen by Landlord under this subparagraph (c), Landlord shall not be required, except as may be required by Applicable Law, to relet the Leased Property nor exercise any other right granted to Landlord pursuant to this Lease, nor, except as may be required by Applicable Laws, shall Landlord be under any obligation to minimize or mitigate Landlord’s damages or Tenant’s loss as a result of Tenant’s breach of or default under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following such time as Landlord may obtain possession of the Leased Property, Landlord or its successor Landlord at the time of any Lease termination, shall continue to make the Leased Property available for lease, on an “as is” basis, and shall turn over the net proceeds thereof to Tenant to the extent actually received by Landlord in respect of any time period for which Landlord shall have received the full amount of Rent payable with respect thereto (albeit perhaps on a basis reasonably discounted for the time value of money or present value basis).

(d) Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, enter upon the Leased Property or any portion thereof and take possession of (i) any and all of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, (ii) Tenant’s books and records necessary to

 

- 59 -


operate the Leased Property, and (iii) all the bank accounts concerning, or established for, the Leased Property, without liability for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the same by public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable notice of the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Landlord or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, unless otherwise prevented by law. Unless otherwise provided by Applicable Law and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given at least ten (10) days before the date of sale. The proceeds from any such disposition, less all expenses incurred in connection with the taking of possession, holding and selling of such Property (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be credited against Rent which is due hereunder.

(e) Tenant acknowledges that one of the rights and remedies available to Landlord under Applicable Law is to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver to collect the rents, issues, profits and income of the Leased Property and to manage the operation of the Leased Property. Therefore, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord under this Lease, Landlord may petition any appropriate court for appointment of a receiver to manage the operation of the Leased Property (or any portion thereof), to collect and disburse all rents, issues, profits and income generated thereby. The receiver shall be entitled to a reasonable fee for his services as receiver. All such fees and other expenses of the receivership estate shall be payable as Additional Charges under this Lease. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Tenant hereby irrevocably stipulates to the appointment of a receiver under such circumstances and for such purposes and agrees not to contest such appointment.

(f) In addition to the remedies hereinabove specified and enumerated, Landlord shall have and may exercise the right to invoke any other remedies allowed at law or in equity as if the remedies of reentry, unlawful detainer proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided. Accordingly, the mention in this Lease of any particular remedy shall not preclude Landlord from having or exercising any other remedy at law or in equity. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as precluding the Landlord from having or exercising such lawful remedies as may be and become necessary in order to preserve the Landlord’s right or the interest of the Landlord in the Leased Property and in this Lease, even before the expiration of any notice periods provided for in this Lease, if under the particular circumstances then existing the allowance of such notice periods will prejudice or will endanger the rights and estate of the Landlord in this Lease and in the Leased Property. In addition, any provision of this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, no provision of this Lease shall delay or otherwise limit Landlord’s right to seek injunctive relief or Tenant’s obligation to comply with any such injunctive relief.

12.3 Application of Funds. Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this Lease 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

 

- 60 -


be applied to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Lease in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State.

12.4 Landlord’s Right to Cure Tenant’s Default. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing beyond any applicable cure period, Landlord may, but shall have no obligation to perform the same for the account and at the expense of Tenant. If, at any time and by reason of such default, Landlord is compelled to pay, or elects to pay, any sum of money or do any act which will require the payment of any sum of money, or is compelled to incur any expense in the enforcement of its rights hereunder or otherwise, such sum or sums, together with interest thereon at the Overdue Rate shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder and shall be repaid to Landlord by Tenant promptly when billed therefor, and Landlord shall have all the same rights and remedies in respect thereof as Landlord has in respect of the rents herein reserved.

12.5 Landlord’s Security Interest and Lien.

12.5.1 Landlord shall have, and Tenant hereby grants, a security interest (a) in Tenant’s Personal Property (specifically excluding any proprietary software or proprietary operating systems of Tenant) or the equity of Tenant therein located at the Leased Property, (b) Tenant’s books and records necessary to operate the Leased Property, and (c) all of the bank accounts concerning or established for the Leased Property. This security interest is granted for the purpose of securing the payment of Rent, Additional Charges, assessments, penalties and damages herein covenanted to be paid by Tenant. Upon an Event of Default hereunder or under any of the Affiliated Leases, Landlord shall have all remedies available under the Uniform Commercial Code enacted in the State where the Leased Property is located, including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the above-mentioned property and dispose of it by sale in a commercially reasonable manner. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to file such financing statements as Landlord deems necessary and appropriate in such jurisdictions as Landlord deems necessary and appropriate for the purpose of serving notice to third parties of the security interest herein granted.

12.5.2 Landlord shall have at all times during the Term of this Lease, a valid lien for all Rent, Additional Charges and other sums of money becoming due hereunder from Tenant, upon all goods, accounts, wares, merchandise, Inventory, furniture, fixtures, equipment, vehicles and other personal property and effects of Tenant situated in or upon the Leased Property, including Tenant’s Personal Property (specifically excluding any proprietary software or proprietary operating systems of Tenant) and any interest of Tenant in P&E Replacements, and such property shall not be removed therefrom except in accordance with the terms of this Lease without the approval and consent of Landlord until all arrearages in Rent, Additional Charges or other sums of money then due to Landlord hereunder shall first have been paid and discharged in full. Alternatively, the lien hereby granted may be foreclosed in the manner and form provided by law for foreclosure of security interests or in any other manner and form provided by law. The statutory lien for Rent, if any, is not hereby waived and the express contractual lien herein granted is in addition thereto and supplementary thereto. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord from time to time during the Term of this Lease such financing statements as Landlord deems necessary and appropriate in such jurisdictions as Landlord deems necessary and appropriate in order to perfect the Landlord’s lien provided herein or granted or created by state law. Tenant further agrees that during an Event of Default, Tenant shall not make any distributions to its shareholders, partners, members or other owners and any such distributions shall be considered

 

- 61 -


and deemed to be fraudulent and preferential and subordinate to Landlord’s claim for Rent and other sums hereunder.

12.6 Collateral Assignment. As additional security for Tenant’s performance of its obligations hereunder, Tenant hereby collaterally assigns to Landlord, to the extent assignable, all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in Permits, contracts, and other agreements and documents held by Tenant and necessary and used to operate the Leased Property for its Permitted Use. Such collateral assignment shall become an outright assignment and shall be effective upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease by Landlord as a result of an Event of Default by Tenant without the need to execute any additional instruments evidencing such assignment. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that any third party may rely upon a written statement by Landlord as to an Event of Default by Tenant and the termination of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord, upon the termination of this Lease by Landlord as a result of an Event of Default by Tenant, such instruments evidencing the assignment contemplated hereby as may be required by Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion.

12.7 Landlord Default. In the event of a default by Landlord under any material obligation of Landlord hereunder, Landlord shall have thirty (30) days from Tenant’s written notice to Landlord specifying the nature of the default to cure such default. If the default is of such nature that it cannot reasonably be corrected within such thirty (30) day period, Landlord shall have such additional period as is reasonably necessary to sure such default, provided that Landlord diligently and continuously prosecutes the cure of such default. In the event that Landlord fails to cure any default, and is not otherwise pursuing a cure thereof, for which it has received notice, as specified herein, Tenant shall have the right to either: (i) cure such default and deduct the reasonable costs of such cure from Rent payable hereunder; or (ii) terminate this Lease upon sixty (60) days written notice to Landlord. Tenant’s failure to notify Landlord of any material default hereunder shall not act as a waiver of such default.

ARTICLE 13

HOLDING OVER

If Tenant or any other person or party shall remain in possession of the Leased Property or any part thereof following the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease without an agreement in writing between Landlord and Tenant with respect thereto, the person or party remaining in possession shall be deemed to be a tenant at sufferance, and during any such holdover, the Rent payable under this Lease by such tenant at sufferance shall be double the rate or rates in effect immediately prior to the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease. In no event, however, shall such holding over be deemed or construed to be or constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease.

ARTICLE 14

LIABILITY OF LANDLORD; INDEMNIFICATION

14.1 Liability of Landlord. Landlord and its Affiliates shall not be liable to Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees, licensees, customers or clients for any damage, injury, loss, compensation or claim, including, but not limited to, claims for the interruption of or loss to Tenant’s Business, based on, arising out of or resulting from any cause whatsoever (other than Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), including, but not limited to: (a) repairs to any portion of the Leased Property; (b) interruption in Tenant’s Business or Tenant’s use of the Leased Property; (c) any accident or damage resulting from the use or operation (by Landlord, Tenant or any other person or persons) of any equipment within the Leased Property, including without limitation, heating, cooling, electrical or plumbing equipment or apparatus; (d) the termination of this Lease by reason of the condemnation or destruction of the Leased Property in accordance with the provisions of this Lease; (e) any fire, robbery, theft, mysterious disappearance or other casualty; (f) the actions of any other person or persons; (g) any leakage or seepage in or from any part or portion of the Leased Property, whether from water, rain or other precipitation that may leak into, or flow from, any part of the Leased Property, or from drains, pipes or plumbing fixtures in the Leased Improvements; (h) any condition relating to the Environment; and (i) the existence of any Hazardous Substance located at, on or in the Land. Any goods, property or personal effects stored or placed by the Tenant or its employees in or about the Leased Property including Tenant’s Personal Property, shall be at the sole risk of the Tenant.

14.2 Indemnification of Landlord. Tenant shall defend, indemnify, pay, save, insure and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, injunctions, suits, actions, fines, penalties, claims, demands, costs and expenses of every kind or nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, incurred by Landlord, arising directly or indirectly from or out of: (a) any failure by Tenant to perform any of the terms, provisions, covenants or conditions of this Lease, on Tenant’s part to be performed including but not limited to the payment of any fee, cost or expense which Tenant is obligated to pay and discharge hereunder, (b) any accident, injury or damage which shall happen at, in or upon the Leased Property, however occurring; (c) any matter or thing growing out of the condition, occupation, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or operation by any person, including Tenant or a Tenant Affiliate, their employees, agents, invitees, customers, licensees or contractors, of the Leased Property, or any part thereof, or the operation of the business contemplated by this Lease to be conducted thereon, therein, or therefrom; (d) any failure of Tenant to comply with the Legal Requirements; (e) any contamination of the Leased Property, or the groundwaters thereof, during the Term hereof, whether by of Tenant or Tenant Affiliate, their employees, agents, invitees, customers, licensees or contractors; (f) any discharge of toxic or hazardous sewage or waste materials from the Leased Property into any septic facility or sanitary sewer system serving the Leased Property arising on or after the date Tenant takes possession of the Leased Property, whether by Tenant or Tenant Affiliate, their employees, agents, invitees, customers, licensees or contractors; (g) reciprocal rights granted to Golf Club members in any club associated with the Leased Property; (h) any other act or omission of Tenant or Tenant Affiliate, its employees, agents, invitees, customers, licensees or contractors; or (i) subject to the

provisions of Section 10.1 hereof, any exercise by any Person of any of its rights with respect to the Leased Property pursuant to the Permitted Encumbrances; provided, however, Tenant shall not be liable for or be obligated to indemnify Landlord from and against any damages resulting from Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

THE INDEMNIFICATION OF LANDLORD HEREUNDER IS INTENDED TO AND SHALL EXPRESSLY INCLUDE INDEMNIFICATION AGAINST LANDLORD’S OWN NEGLIGENCE, UNLESS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED OTHERWISE HEREIN. TENANT’S INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS ARTICLE 14 AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS LEASE ARISING PRIOR TO THE TERMINATION OR PERMITTED ASSIGNMENT OF THIS LEASE SHALL SURVIVE SUCH TERMINATION OR ASSIGNMENT.

14.3 Notice of Claim or Suit. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any claim, action, proceeding or suit instituted or threatened against Tenant or Landlord concerning or affecting the Leased Property, the Business or the Tenant of which Tenant receives notice or of which Tenant acquires knowledge (“Claim”). In the event Landlord is made a party to any action for damages or other relief against which Tenant has indemnified Landlord, as aforesaid, Tenant shall at its own expense using counsel reasonably approved by Landlord, diligently defend Landlord, pay all costs in such litigation or, at Landlord’s option, and expense, Landlord may nonetheless engage its own counsel in connection with its own defense or settlement of said litigation in which event Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and make available to Landlord all information and data which Landlord deems necessary or desirable for such defense. In the event Landlord is required to secure its own counsel due to a conflict in the interests of Tenant and Landlord in any action for damages or other relief against which Tenant has indemnified Landlord, Tenant shall pay all of Landlord’s costs in such litigation. Tenant is required to approve a settlement agreement for any such claim or suit as requested by Landlord and which is consistent with applicable insurance company requirements, unless Tenant posts a bond or other security acceptable to Landlord for any potentially uninsured liability amounts. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, on or before the end of each Fiscal Quarter, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a status report with respect to all Claims, which status report shall include a summary as to the status of each Claim.

14.4 Limitation on Liability of Landlord. In the event Tenant is awarded a money judgment against Landlord, Tenant’s sole recourse for satisfaction of such judgment shall be limited to execution against the Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property. In no event shall any partner, member, officer, director, stockholder or shareholder of Landlord or any partner thereof or Affiliated Person or Subsidiary thereof, be personally liable for the obligations of Landlord hereunder.

ARTICLE 15

REIT AND UBTI REQUIREMENTS

Tenant understands that, in order for Landlord to qualify as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Code, the following requirements must be satisfied. The parties intend that

 

- 64 -


amounts to be paid by Tenant hereunder and received or accrued, directly or indirectly, by Landlord with respect to the Leased Property (including any rents attributable to personal property that is leased with respect thereto) will qualify as “rents from real property” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(d) and Section 512(b)(3)), and that neither party will take, or permit to take, any action that would cause any amount received by the Landlord under this Lease to fail to qualify as such under the Code. Consistent with this intent, the parties agree that:

15.1 Limitations on Rents Attributable to Personal Property. “Rents attributable to any personal property” leased to the Tenant cannot exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the total rent received or accrued by Landlord under this Lease for the Fiscal Year of the Landlord. In addition, Landlord’s customary practice is to limit “rents attributable to any personal property” to twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the total rent received or accrued by Landlord pursuant to any lease agreement. Consistent therewith, the average of the fair market values of the personal property (within the meaning set forth in Section 1.512(b) 1(c)(3)(ii) of the applicable Treasury Regulations) that is leased to Tenant with respect to the Leased Property at the beginning and end of a Fiscal Year cannot exceed twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the average of the aggregate fair market values of the real and personal property comprising such Leased Property that is leased to Tenant under such lease at the beginning and end of such Fiscal Year (the “REIT Personal Property Limitation”). If Landlord reasonably anticipates that the REIT Personal Property Limitation will be exceeded with respect to the Leased Property for any Fiscal Year, Landlord may, at Landlord’s sole option and absolute discretion (i) notify Tenant, and Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith the purchase by Tenant of items of personal property anticipated by Landlord to be in excess of the REIT Personal Property Limitation, provided, in such event, Tenant’s responsibility to purchase such personal property would be offset by Landlord in some mutually agreeable manner, which would not result in the Landlord earning income which would constitute “unrelated business taxable income” within the meaning of Section 512 of the Code, if the Landlord was a “qualified trust” within the meaning of Section 856(h)(3)(E) of the Code; or (ii) restructure the ownership of Landlord and/or Landlord’s ownership of the personal property and lease, or cause an Affiliate to lease to Tenant, pursuant to a separate lease agreement, such personal property, and Tenant agrees that it shall cooperate with Landlord in good faith in connection with such restructuring and shall execute any separate or amended lease agreements, provided the same do not materially affect Tenant’s rights and obligations under this Lease.

15.2 Basis for Sublease Rent Restricted. Tenant cannot sublet the property that is leased to it by Landlord, or enter into any similar arrangement, on any basis such that the rental or other amounts paid by the sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on either (a) the net income or profits derived by the business activities of the sublessee or (b) any other formula such that any portion of the rent paid by Tenant to Landlord would fail to qualify as “rent from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) and Section 512(b)(3) of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder.

15.3 Landlord Affiliate Subleases Restricted. Anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublease the Leased Property to, or enter into any similar arrangement with, any person in which Landlord owns, directly or indirectly, a ten percent (10%) or more interest, with the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, and any such action shall

 

- 65 -


be deemed void ab initio. Anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublease the Leased Property to, or enter into any similar arrangement with, any Person that Landlord would be deemed to control within the meaning of Section 512 (b)(13) of the Code.

15.4 Landlord Interests in Tenant Restricted. Anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, neither party shall take, or permit to take, any action that would cause Landlord to own, directly or indirectly, a ten percent (10%) or greater interest in the Tenant within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, and any similar or successor provision thereto, and any such action shall be deemed void ab initio. In addition, anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, Tenant shall not take or permit to take, any action that would cause Landlord to own, directly or indirectly, such interest in Tenant such that amounts received from Tenant would represent amounts received from a controlled entity within the meaning of Section 512(b)(13) of the Code.

15.5 Landlord Services. Any services provided by, or on behalf of, Landlord will not prevent any amounts received or accrued from qualifying as “rents from real property” (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2) or Section 512(b)(3) of the Code).

15.6 Certain Subtenants Prohibited. Anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublease the Leased Property to, or enter into any similar arrangement with, any Person that would be described in Section 514(c)(9)(B)(iii) or (iv) of the Code.

15.7 Future Amendment. Tenant hereby agrees to amend this Article 15 from time to time as Landlord deems necessary or desirable in order to effectuate the intent hereof.

ARTICLE 16

SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT

16.1 Transfers Prohibited Without Consent. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole opinion and discretion, sell, assign, sublease, license, concession or otherwise transfer this Lease, or Tenant’s interest in the Leased Property together with all interests of Tenant in all property of any nature located and used at the Leased Property (including, without limitation, Tenant’s Personal Property, but excluding sales in the ordinary course of business), in whole or in part, or any rights or interest which Tenant may have under this Lease, or sublet, license or concession any part of the Leased Property, or grant or permit any Lien or encumbrance on or security interest in Tenant’s interest in this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the provisions of Section 16.2 hereof, in the event that Tenant elects to sell, assign or otherwise transfer this Lease, or Tenant’s interest in this Lease or the Leased Property, in whole but not in part, to an Affiliated Person of Tenant, then Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to such sale, assignment or transfer provided (i) Tenant gives Landlord prior written notice of such sale or assignment, (ii) Tenant shall remain liable under this Lease for the remaining Term, unless the purchaser or assignee of Tenant’s interest in the Lease and the Leased Property shall have a financial net worth equivalent to or greater than the financial net worth of Tenant as of the Effective Date and an equivalent number of years and quality of experience in operating Golf

 

- 66 -


Course Facilities, in which event, Tenant shall be released from any further liability hereunder upon such purchase or assignment, and (iii) such assignee or purchaser shall continue to operate the Leased Property as a Golf Course Facility consistent with other Golf Course Facilities being operated by Tenant and/or its Affiliated Persons. Any sale, assignment or transfer of this Lease without the prior written consent of Landlord shall be voidable at Landlord’s option.

16.2 Indirect Transfer Prohibited Without Consent. Schedule 16.2 attached hereto sets forth the current ownership and Control of Tenant. Any (in each such case, a “Transfer of Tenant”) (i) sale, assignment, pledge, transfer, exchange or other disposition of the stock, partnership interests, membership interests, or other equitable interests in Tenant or any Person Controlling Tenant, which results in a change or transfer of Control or a change or transfer of management of the Tenant, (ii) merger, consolidation or other combination of Tenant with another entity which results in a change or transfer of Control or a change or transfer of management of Tenant, or (iii) a recapitalization of Tenant, shall be deemed an assignment hereunder and shall be subject to Section 16.1 hereof. For purposes hereof, exchange or transfer of management or Control or effective Control shall mean a transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of the economic benefit of, or Control of, any such entity.

16.3 Adequate Assurances. Without limiting any of the foregoing provisions of this Article, if, pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, as the same may be amended from time to time, Tenant is permitted to assign or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations under this Lease in disregard of the restrictions contained in this Article, the assignee shall be deemed to agree to provide adequate assurance to Landlord (a) that any Additional Minimum Rent shall not decline substantially after the date of such assignment, (b) of the continued use of the Leased Property solely in accordance with the Permitted Use thereof, (c) of the continuous operation of the business in the Leased Property in strict accordance with the requirements of Article 4 hereof, and (d) of such other matters as Landlord may reasonably require at the time of such assumption or assignment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, adequate assurance shall include the requirement that any such assignee shall have a net worth (exclusive of good will) of not less than the aggregate of the Rent due and payable for the previous Fiscal Year. Such assignee shall expressly assume this Lease by an agreement in recordable form, an original counterpart of which shall be delivered to Landlord prior to an assignment of this Lease. Any approval of such successor Tenant shall not affect or alter Landlord’s approval rights of each manager of the Leased Property or successor Tenants.

16.4 Landlord Transfers. Landlord may, in its sole and absolute discretion, sell, assign, convey or otherwise transfer its interest in this Lease or the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or any interest therein, directly or indirectly, to any Person, without the consent of Tenant. Tenant shall attorn to any such transferee and continue to be bound by this Lease in the event of any such transfer; provided, however, that Tenant shall continue to pay Rent and other Additional Charges to Landlord and performance all other obligations under this Lease in favor of Landlord until Tenant receives written notice of any such assignment of this Lease by Landlord and a copy of such transferee’s assumption of all obligations of Landlord under the terms of this Lease.

17.1 Estoppel Certificates. Provided that the information set forth therein is then true and correct, Tenant shall from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after request by Landlord and without charge, give a Tenant Estoppel Certificate in the form (or substantially the form) attached hereto as Exhibit F and containing such other matters as may be reasonably requested by Landlord to any person, firm or corporation specified by Landlord.

17.2 Periodic Financial Statements. Throughout the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall prepare and deliver to Landlord (a) within ten (10) calendar days after the end of each month during the Term hereof, a statement of Total Facility Revenues and a statement of Aggregate Total Facility Revenues for the immediately preceding month and for the Fiscal Year to date; (b) within twenty (20) calendar days after the end of each month during the Term, (i) consolidated financial statements of PGMI, including an income (or profit and loss) statement and operating balance sheet showing the consolidated results of the operation of PGMI for the immediately preceding month, for the Fiscal Quarter and for the Fiscal Year to date, and (ii) a completed Golf Club membership report substantially in the form of, and setting forth the information required by, Schedule 17.2 attached hereto with respect to such Golf Club memberships as of the end of the immediately preceding month; and (c) within fifteen (15) calendar days after the end of each month during the Term hereof, an income (or profit and loss) statement and operating balance sheet showing the results of the operation of the Leased Property for the immediately preceding month, for the Fiscal Quarter and for the Fiscal Year to date, an accounts receivable member’s aging report and a manager’s summary report covering trading results and significant operating issues.

The financial statements required herein are in addition to the statements required under Section 3.2.2 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Tenant’s financial records are not otherwise being reviewed or audited by an independent certified public accountant then the Landlord will accept financial statements certified true and correct by the Chief Financial Officer of Tenant (or of Tenant’s general partner or managing member, if applicable). In connection with Landlord’s responsibility to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting and the requirements for complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Tenant hereby agrees to provide reasonable access to the Leased Property, including the Leased Property’s books and records, and reasonable assistance necessary to Landlord that will allow Landlord to conduct activities necessary to satisfy such responsibilities, including, but not limited to, the activities stipulated by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in its release 2004-1, or other similarly promulgated guidance by other regulatory agencies. Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with appropriate notice regarding the conduct of activities anticipated in this provision.

Tenant shall keep and maintain at all times in accordance with GAAP (separate and apart from its other books, records and accounts) complete and accurate up to date books and records adequate to reflect clearly and correctly the results of operations of the Leased Property, on an accrual basis, including but not limited to, each calculation of Additional Minimum Rent. Such books and records shall be kept and maintained at the Leased Property or Tenant’s principal office at c/o Evergreen Alliance Golf Limited, L.P., 4851 LBJ Freeway, Suite 600, Dallas, Texas 75244. Landlord or its representatives shall have, at all reasonable times during normal business hours, reasonable access, on reasonable advance notice, to examine and copy the books and records pertaining to the Leased Property. Such books and records shall be available for at least four (4) years after the applicable quarterly calculation of Additional Minimum Rent for Landlord’s inspection, copying, review and audit at Landlord’s expense during reasonable business hours and upon reasonable notice for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of Tenant’s calculation of Additional Minimum Rent.

17.5 General Operations Budget. In addition to the Capex Reserve Estimate, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord, on or before November 1 of each Fiscal Year, an annual operations budget for the succeeding Fiscal Year for Landlord’s review and comments. Tenant shall review in good faith Landlord’s comments prior to finalizing its general operations budget. The general operations budget shall include projections of income and expenses on a monthly basis for the succeeding Fiscal Year in detailed line item breakdown, together with a marketing plan describing in detail the Tenant’s plan for marketing the Tenant’s operation of the Leased Property, including a detailed line item marketing budget. If, at any time during the current Fiscal Year, Landlord determines that actual income and expenses are not consistent with the applicable general operations budget furnished by Tenant for the current Fiscal Year in accordance with the foregoing, Landlord, may, in its sole discretion, require that Tenant provide Landlord, within twenty (20) Business Days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s written request, a

Tenant agrees to give good faith consideration to any suggestions or requests that Landlord may have.

17.7 Tenant Financial Statements. For so long as Landlord is an Affiliate of CNL Lifestyle Properties, Inc., or its successors, Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord’s sole discretion, to require Tenant to prepare and deliver to Landlord, within sixty (60) days after the end of each Fiscal Year during which a Materiality Threshold Period (as hereinafter defined) occurs, a balance sheet, income statement, statement of owner’s equity, cash flows and footnotes with respect to Tenant audited and certified by an independent certified public accountant who is actively engaged in the practice of his profession and who is acceptable to Landlord (which financial statements may be presented on a consolidated basis with Parent so long as such financial statements satisfy Landlord’s requirement of Tenant to provide audited financial statements of “Significant Tenant” pursuant to the terms of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 71). The foregoing financial statements and reports shall be certified to Landlord by such independent certified public accountant that such statements have been properly prepared in accordance with GAAP and are true, correct, and complete in all material respects and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of Tenant at and as of the dates thereof and the results of all of its operations for the period covered thereby. For the purposes hereof, the term “Materiality Threshold Period” shall mean any period of time during the Term during which Tenant, either itself or together with its Affiliates, leases, operates or manages properties owned by Landlord or its Affiliates that, in the aggregate, comprise more than twenty percent (20%) of the total assets of CNL Lifestyle Properties, Inc., or its successors, as reasonably determined by Landlord.

ARTICLE 18

Landlord, Mortgagee and their agents shall have the right to enter upon the Leased Property or any portion thereof at any reasonable time to inspect the same, including but not limited to, the operation, sanitation, safety, maintenance and use of the same, or any portions of the same and to assure itself that Tenant is in full compliance with its obligations under this Lease (but Landlord and Mortgagee shall not thereby assume any responsibility for the performance of any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, nor any liability arising from the improper performance thereof).

ARTICLE 19

FACILITY MORTGAGES

19.1 Subordination. This Lease, Tenant’s interest hereunder and Tenant’s leasehold interest in and to the Leased Property are hereby agreed by Tenant to be and are hereby made junior, inferior, subordinate and subject in right, title, interest, lien, encumbrance, priority and all other respects to any mortgage or mortgages and security interests now or hereafter in force and effect upon or encumbering Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and to all collateral assignments by Landlord to any third party or parties of any of Landlord’s rights under this Lease or the rents, issues and profits thereof or therefrom as security for any liability or indebtedness, direct, indirect or contingent, of Landlord to such third party or parties, and to all future modifications, extensions, renewals, consolidations and replacements of, and all amendments and supplements to any such mortgage, mortgages or assignments, and upon recording of any such mortgage, mortgages or assignments, the same shall be deemed to be prior in dignity, lien and encumbrance to this Lease, Tenant’s interest hereunder and Tenant’s leasehold interest in and to the Leased Property irrespective of the dates of execution, delivery or recordation of any such mortgage, mortgages or assignments (such mortgages, mortgages, security interests, assignments, modifications, extensions, renewals, amendments, supplements and replacement being a “Facility Mortgage”). Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord and any Mortgagee or potential Mortgagee in connection with a Facility Mortgage, including, but not limited to, consenting to such non-material and reasonable amendments to this Lease as may be requested by such Mortgagee. The foregoing subordination provisions shall be automatic and self operative without the necessity of the execution of any further instrument or agreement of subordination on the part of Tenant. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding the foregoing automatic subordination, if Landlord or Mortgagee shall request that Tenant execute and deliver any further instrument or agreement of subordination of this Lease or Tenant’s interest hereunder or Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property to any such Facility Mortgage, in confirmation or furtherance of or in addition to the foregoing subordination provisions of this Section, Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver the same to the requesting party. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Landlord shall, in connection with any subordination of this Lease by Tenant, exercise commercially reasonable good faith efforts to obtain a written agreement from Mortgagee that the validity of this Lease shall be recognized by Mortgagee, and that, notwithstanding any default by Landlord as mortgagor with respect to such Facility Mortgage, Tenant’s possession of and right to use the Leased Property pursuant to the terms of this Lease shall not be disturbed by such Mortgage unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred or Tenant’s right to possession shall have been terminated or be terminable in accordance with the provisions hereof. Tenant agrees that it will, from time to time, execute such documentation as may be requested by Landlord and any Mortgagee (a) to assist Landlord and such Mortgagee in establishing or perfecting any security interest in Landlord’s interest in the Capex Reserve and any funds therein; and (b) to facilitate or allow Landlord to encumber the Leased Property or any portion thereof as herein contemplated. If, within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of a written request by Landlord or the holder or proposed holder of any such Facility Mortgage, Tenant shall fail or refuse or shall have not executed any such further instrument or agreement of subordination, for whatever reason, Tenant shall be in breach and default of its obligation to do so and of this Lease

 

- 71 -


and Landlord shall be entitled thereupon to exercise any and all remedies available to Landlord pursuant to this Lease or otherwise provided by law.

19.2 Attornment. Tenant shall and hereby agrees to attorn, and be bound under all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Lease, to any successor of the interest of Landlord under this Lease for the balance of the Term of this Lease remaining at the time of the succession of such interest to such successor. In particular, in the event that any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any Facility Mortgage, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser at any such foreclosure sale and recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease. Tenant agrees that neither the purchaser at any such foreclosure sale nor the foreclosing Mortgagee or holder of any such Facility Mortgage shall have any liability for any act or omission of Landlord, be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant may have as claims against Landlord, or be bound by any advance rents which may have been paid by Tenant to Landlord for more than the current period in which such rents come due.

19.3 Rights of Mortgagees and Assignees. Any Mortgagee of Landlord shall have the right to unilateral enjoyment, exercise or control over the rights, remedies, powers and interests of Landlord hereunder, or otherwise arising under Applicable Law, as assigned or granted to such Mortgagee by Landlord or as provided in any Facility Mortgage. At the time of giving any notice of default to Landlord, Tenant shall mail or deliver to any Mortgagee of whom Tenant has notice, a copy of any such notice. No notice of default or termination of this Lease by Tenant shall be effective until each Mortgagee shall have been furnished a copy of such notice by Tenant. In the event Landlord fails to cure any default by it under this Lease, the Mortgagee shall have, at its option, a period of thirty (30) days after expiration of any cure period of Landlord within which to remedy such default of Landlord or to cause such default to be remedied. In the event that the Mortgagee elects to cure any such default by Landlord, then Tenant shall accept such performance on the part of such Mortgagee as though the same had been performed by Landlord, and for such purpose Tenant hereby authorizes any Mortgagee to enter upon the Leased Property to the extent necessary to exercise any of Landlord’s rights, powers and duties under this Lease. If, in the event of any default by Landlord which is reasonably capable of being cured by a Mortgagee, the Mortgagee promptly commences and diligently pursues to cure the default, then Tenant will not terminate this Lease or cease to perform any of its obligations under this Lease so long as the Mortgagee is, with due diligence, engaged in the curing of such default.

19.4 Effect of Facility Mortgage. Provided Tenant is not in monetary or other material default under the terms and conditions of the Lease beyond the expiration of the applicable grace period therein provided for curing such default, then:

19.4.1 the right of possession of Tenant to the Leased Property and Tenant’s rights arising under the Lease shall not be affected or disturbed by Mortgagee in the exercise of any of its rights under the Facility Mortgage or any note secured thereby, nor shall Tenant be named as a party defendant in any action to foreclose the lien of the Facility Mortgage, unless required by law (and then only as and to the extent so required for the foreclosure of such Facility Mortgage), nor in any other way be deprived of its rights under the Lease; and

 

- 72 -


19.4.2 if Mortgagee or any other person acquires title to the Leased Property pursuant to the exercise of any remedy provided for in the Facility Mortgage or as a result of a default by Landlord thereunder:

19.4.2.1 the Lease shall not be terminated or affected by any foreclosure or sale or by any such proceeding;

19.4.2.2 Mortgagee shall covenant that any sale by it of the Leased Property pursuant to the exercise of any rights and remedies under the Facility Mortgage or otherwise shall be made subject to the Lease and the rights of Tenant thereunder; and

19.4.2.3 Tenant’s agreement to attorn to Mortgagee or such person as its new landlord pursuant to Section 19.2 hereof, shall be subject to new landlord’s agreement to assume and perform all of the obligations of the landlord under the Lease accruing from and after such acquisition of title.

If, from and after the date of the Original Lease, Tenant acquires an interest in any items of tangible personal property (other than motor vehicles) on, or in connection with the Leased Property which belong to anyone other than Tenant, Tenant shall use best efforts to require that any agreement permitting such use to provide that Landlord may assume Tenant’s rights and obligations under such agreement upon the termination of this Lease and any assumption of management or operation of the Leased Property by Landlord or its designee.

20.3 Leasehold Financing Prohibited. Tenant shall be prohibited from encumbering the Leased Property or its interests under this Lease with leasehold financing without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Landlord hereby agrees that Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to leasehold financing if, and provided that, such financing (i) does not encumber or otherwise impair Landlord’s interest in and to the Leased Property, (ii) is obtained from an institutional lender reasonably approved by Landlord, and (iii) is upon terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Landlord, including, but not limited to, that any leasehold mortgage shall provide that any assignee of Tenant’s leasehold interest pursuant to a foreclosure or assignment-in-lieu of foreclosure, shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, if and

22.1.2 Tenant shall protect, indemnify, pay, save and hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of any liability related to the refund of deposits, securities violations, or other liabilities associated with the Membership Documents, whether occurring before or after the date of the Original Lease; provided, however, that Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall not apply to any liability, obligation, claim, damage, penalty, cause of action, cost or expense (a) arising from any gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its employees, agents, contractors or invitees, or (b) resulting directly from the negligence of Landlord in the exercise of Landlord’s approval rights hereunder, whereby Landlord directs Tenant to take any action or rejects Tenant’s request to take action which Tenant deems necessary and so advises Landlord and which in either case Tenant reasonably objects to Landlord’s direction in writing. Nothing in the foregoing proviso regarding exceptions to Tenant’s obligations under this Section is intended or shall be deemed to impose liability or obligation on Landlord in favor of or with respect to, either Tenant or any third party. Any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord covered under this indemnity shall be defended by counsel selected by Tenant and reasonably acceptable to Landlord, at Tenant’s expense. The obligations of Tenant under this Section 22.1.2 shall survive the expiration or any early termination of this Lease.

22.1.3 Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that, as of the date of the Original Lease and as of the Effective Date, there exist memberships in and to the Golf Club which provide for refundable membership deposits paid by a member on the 30th anniversary following the date such member was admitted to membership at the Golf Club (each a “Refundable Membership Deposit” and collectively, the “Refundable Membership Deposits”). Tenant shall be obligated and liable for any claim in connection with such Refundable Membership Deposits whether arising before or after the date of the Original Lease. Further, Tenant shall be obligated to enforce the obligations of the Trusts under the Trust Assumption Agreement to refund Refundable Membership Deposits relating to memberships in and to the Golf Club sold prior to April 1, 2001. Tenant shall protect, indemnify, pay, save and hold harmless Landlord, its successors and assigns and their respective lessees, if any, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), arising in connection with a claim with respect to any Refundable Membership Deposit whether arising before or after the date of the Original Lease, including, without limitation, Tenant’s failure to enforce the Trusts obligations pursuant to the Trust Assumption Agreement, or the failure by the Trusts to refund

 

- 79 -


any Refundable Membership Deposit. Landlord and Tenant each hereby acknowledge and agree that Schedule 22.1.3 attached hereto sets forth a complete and accurate list of all Refundable Membership Deposits and the names of all members entitled to such refunds or obligations. Further, Tenant hereby agrees that Tenant shall, no later that fifteen (15) days following the end of each Fiscal Quarter during the Term hereof, furnish to Landlord a complete statement, certified by the Chief Financial Officer of Tenant, or of Tenant’s general partner or managing member, if applicable, setting forth all Refundable Membership Deposits refunded during such Fiscal Quarter and the current balance of all remaining Refundable Membership Deposits. The provisions of this Section 22.1.3, including Tenant’s indemnification obligation, shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

22.1.4 Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant, at Landlord’s option, shall be required to assign its position under the Membership Documents and under the Trust Assumption Agreement to Landlord, or, at Landlord’s sole election and discretion, to any Person designated by Landlord, provided Landlord’s designee assumes all of the obligations of Tenant thereunder following the date of such assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall retain, following such expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, and Landlord and/or any successor tenant designated by Landlord expressly disclaim, any and all liability and/or obligation to refund any Refundable Membership Deposits not otherwise covered under the Trust Assumption Agreement (“Retained Refund Liability”). Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Tenant shall not be entitled to or due any additional consideration with respect to such Retained Refund Liability following the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and for so long as any portion of the Retained Refund Liability remains outstanding, Tenant shall protect, indemnify, pay, save and hold harmless Landlord, its successors and assigns and their respective lessees, if any, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), arising in connection with such Retained Refund Liability. Tenant agrees to execute any further agreements reasonably requested by Landlord upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease confirming the provisions of this Section 22.1.4. The provisions of this Section 22.1.4, including Tenant’s indemnification obligation, shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

ARTICLE 23

MISCELLANEOUS

23.1 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 Lease 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 Lease, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, 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.

Neither the failure of Landlord or Tenant to insist upon a strict performance of any of the terms, provisions, covenants, agreements and conditions hereof, nor the acceptance of any Rent by Landlord with knowledge of a breach of this Lease by Tenant in the performance of its obligations hereunder, or the following of any practice or custom at variance with the terms hereof, shall be deemed or constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies that Landlord or Tenant may have or a waiver of any subsequent breach or default in any of such terms, provisions, covenants, agreements and conditions or the waiver of the right to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof.

23.3 Remedies Cumulative. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each legal, equitable or contractual right, power and remedy of Landlord, now or hereafter provided either in this Lease or by statute 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 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.

23.4 Severability. Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision of this Lease held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or ineffective shall not impair, invalidate or nullify the remainder of this Lease, 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 Lease shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or ineffective provisions had never been contained therein.

23.5 Acceptance of Surrender. No surrender to Landlord of this Lease 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.

23.6 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 Lease 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 Lease or the leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord’s interest in the Leased Property.

- 85 -


construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Lease.

23.12 Counterparts; Headings. This Lease 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. Captions and headings in this Lease are for purposes of reference only and shall in no way define, limit or describe the scope or intent of, or otherwise affect, the provisions of this Lease.

23.13 Applicable Law. This Lease shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State in which the Leased Property is located.

23.14 Right to Make Agreement. Each party warrants, with respect to itself, that neither the execution and delivery of this Lease, nor the compliance with the terms and provisions hereof, shall violate any provision of any law, or any judgment, writ, injunction, order or decree of any court or Governmental Authority; nor result in or constitute a breach or default under or the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of its property or assets under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, 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 Lease and any extensions thereof, the full right to enter into this Lease and perform its obligations hereunder.

23.15 Brokerage. Landlord and Tenant hereby represent and warrant to each other that they have not engaged, employed or utilized the services of any business or real estate brokers, salesmen, agents or finders in the initiation, negotiation or consummation of the business and real estate transaction reflected in this Lease. On the basis of such representation and warranty, each party shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, pay and save and hold the other party harmless from and against the payment of any commissions or fees to or claims for commissions or fees by any real estate or business broker, salesman, agent or finder resulting from or arising out of any actions taken or agreements made by them with respect to the business and real estate transaction reflected in this Lease.

23.16 No Partnership or Joint Venture.

23.17 Entire Agreement. This Lease contains the entire agreement between the parties and, except as otherwise provided herein, can only be changed, modified, amended or terminated by an instrument in writing executed by the parties. It is mutually acknowledged and agreed by Landlord and Tenant that there are no verbal agreements, representations, warranties or other understandings affecting the same; and that Tenant hereby waives, as a material part of the consideration hereof, all claims against Landlord for rescission, damages or any other form of

 

- 86 -


relief by reason of any alleged covenant, warranty, representation, agreement or understanding not contained in this Lease.

23.18 Costs and Attorneys’ Fees. In addition to Landlord’s rights under Sections 12.2 and 14.2, if either party shall bring an action to recover any sum due hereunder, or for any breach hereunder, and shall obtain a judgment or decree in its favor, the court may award to such prevailing party its reasonable costs and reasonable attorney’s fees, specifically including reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with any appeals (whether or not taxable as such by law). Landlord shall also be entitled to recover its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred in any bankruptcy action filed by or against Tenant, including, without limitation, those incurred in seeking relief from the automatic stay, in dealing with the assumption or rejection of this Lease, in any adversary proceeding, and in the preparation and filing of any proof of claim.

23.19 Approval of Landlord. Whenever Tenant is required under this Lease to do anything to meet the satisfaction or judgment of Landlord, the reasonable satisfaction or judgment of Landlord shall be deemed sufficient. The foregoing provision of this Section shall not apply in any instance where the provisions of this Lease expressly state that the provisions of this Section do not apply or where the provisions of this Lease expressly state that such consent, approval or satisfaction are subject to the sole and absolute discretion or judgment of Landlord, and in each such instance Landlord’s approval or consent may be unreasonably withheld or unreasonable satisfaction or judgment may be exercised by Landlord.

THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO LANDLORD’S ACCEPTING THIS LEASE.

23.22 Treatment of Lease. Landlord and Tenant each acknowledge and agree that: (i) this Lease is a “true lease” and not a financing lease, capital lease, mortgage, equitable mortgage, deed of trust, trust agreement, security agreement or other financing or trust arrangement, and the economic realities of this Lease are those of a true lease; (ii) the business relationship created by this Lease and any other related documents is solely that of a long term commercial lease between Landlord and Tenant, the Lease has been entered into by both parties in reliance upon the economic and legal bargains contained herein, and none of the agreements contained herein is intended, nor shall the same be deemed or construed to create a partnership between Landlord and Tenant, to make them joint venturers, to make Tenant an agent, legal representative, partner,

 

- 87 -


or subsidiary of Landlord, nor to make Landlord in any way responsible for the debts, obligations or losses of Tenant; (iii) each party will treat this Lease as a true lease for tax purposes and an operating lease under generally accepted accounting principles, and for federal income tax purposes, each party shall report this Lease as a true lease with Landlord as the owner of the Leased Property and Tenant as the tenant of the Leased Property; (iv) each party will not, nor will it permit any Affiliate to, at any time, take any action or fail to take any action with respect to the preparation or filing of any statement or disclosure to any governmental authority, including, without limitation, any income tax return (or amended return), to the extent that such action or such failure to take action would be inconsistent with the intention of the parties expressed in this Section 23.22; (v) the Minimum Rent is the fair market value for the use of the Leased Property and was agreed to by Landlord and Tenant on that basis, and the execution and delivery of, and the performance by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease do not constitute a sale, transfer or conveyance of the Leased Property by Landlord to Tenant; (vi) each of Landlord and Tenant waives any claim or defense based upon the characterization of this Lease as anything other than a true lease, and each party stipulates and agrees that it will not challenge the validity, enforceability or characterization of this Lease as a true lease, nor will it assert or take or omit to take any action inconsistent with the agreements and understandings of this Section 23.22.

23.23 Transfer of Licenses. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall use its best efforts to transfer and assign to Landlord or its designee or assist Landlord or its designee in obtaining transfer or assignment of all Leased Intangible Property, including without limitation and together with any contracts, licenses (including without limitation all licenses identified as part of the Initial Tenant Personal Property and any replacements thereof and additions thereto), permits, development rights, trade names (except for trade names as included within the Initial Tenant Personal Property), telephone exchange numbers identified with the Leased Property, approvals and certificates and all other intangible rights, benefits and privileges of any kind or character with respect to the Leased Property, useful or required for the then operation of the Leased Property (except for proprietary software as included within the Initial Tenant Personal Property). If requested by Landlord and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Tenant shall provide a collateral assignment or similar pledge of such licenses and other intangible rights upon Landlord’s request and as further security for Tenant’s obligations hereunder.

23.24 Tenant’s Personal Property. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term of this Lease, Landlord may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect either (i) to give Tenant Notice that Tenant shall be required, within sixty (60) Business Days after such expiration or termination, to remove all of Tenant’s Personal Property from the Leased Property, or (ii) to give Tenant Notice that Landlord shall purchase the Tenant’s Personal Property within sixty (60) Business Days after such expiration or termination. In the event that Landlord exercises its option under the foregoing clause (ii) of this Section 23.24, the purchase price for all items of Tenant’s Personal Property shall be the lesser of the fair market value or Tenant’s book value of such Tenant’s Personal Property (free of, and net of, all Liens and other encumbrances).
