MASTER LEASE
THIS MASTER LEASE (this “Lease”) is entered into as of October 1, 2016, by and among each entity identified as “Landlord” on Schedule 1A attached hereto (individually and collectively, “Landlord”), on the one hand, and each entity identified as “Tenant” on Schedule 1B attached hereto (individually and collectively, “Tenant”), on the other hand.
INDIVISIBLE MASTER LEASE;
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND WAIVER
As a condition precedent to Landlord entering into and continuing to remain obligated under this Lease, each of Tenant and, by execution of the Guaranty, Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this Lease constitutes a single, indivisible lease of the entire Premises, and the Premises constitutes a single economic unit. The Base Rent, Additional Rent, other amounts payable hereunder and all other provisions contained herein have been negotiated and agreed upon based on the intent to lease the entirety of the Premises as a single and inseparable transaction, and such Base Rent, Additional Rent, other amounts and other provisions would have been materially different had the parties intended to enter into separate leases or a divisible lease. Any Event of Default under this Lease shall constitute an Event of Default as to the entire Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no Tenant shall, by virtue of this Lease, have any rights to, or title or interest in, the Facility leased by another Tenant, or any right or obligation to operate the same, to the extent it does not have the Authorization necessary or required to do so from the Governmental Authority of the Situs State for such Facility. Each of Tenant and, by executing the Guaranty, Guarantor, in order to induce Landlord to enter into, and as a continuing condition to Landlord’s obligations under, this Lease, to the extent permitted by law:
(a)    Agrees, acknowledges and is forever estopped from asserting to the contrary that the statements set forth in the first sentence of this Section are true, correct and complete;
(b)    Agrees, acknowledges and is forever estopped from asserting to the contrary that this Lease is a new and de novo lease, separate and distinct from any other lease between any of the entities comprising Tenant and any of the entities comprising Landlord that may have existed prior to the date hereof;
(c)    Agrees, acknowledges and is forever estopped from asserting to the contrary that this Lease is a single lease pursuant to which the collective Premises are demised as a whole to Tenant;
(d)    Agrees, acknowledges and is forever estopped from asserting to the contrary that if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, this Lease were to be determined or found to be in any proceeding, action or arbitration under state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, debtor-relief or other applicable laws to constitute multiple leases demising multiple properties, such multiple leases could not, by the debtor, trustee, or any other party, be selectively or individually assumed, rejected or assigned; and
(e)    Forever knowingly waives and relinquishes any and all rights under or benefits of the provisions of the Federal Bankruptcy Code Section 365 (11 U.S.C. § 365), or any successor or replacement thereof or any analogous state law, to selectively or individually assume, reject or assign the multiple leases comprising this Lease following a determination or finding in the nature of that described in the foregoing Paragraph (d).
Article I
DEFINITIONS; PREMISES; TERM
1.1    Definitions. Certain initially capitalized terms used in this Lease are defined in Exhibit A. All accounting terms not otherwise defined in this Lease have the meanings assigned to them in accordance with GAAP, as applicable.
1.2    Lease of Premises; Ownership.
1.2.1    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Lease, Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant leases from Landlord, all of Landlord’s right, title and interest in and to the Premises.
1.2.2    Tenant acknowledges that the Premises are the property of Landlord and that Tenant has only the right to the possession and use of the Premises upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease. Tenant will not, at any time during the Term, take any position, whether in any tax return, public filing, contractual arrangement, financial statement or otherwise, other than that Landlord is the owner of the Premises for federal, state and local income tax purposes and that this Lease is a “true lease”.
1.3    Term. The initial term of this Lease (the “Initial Term”) shall be for a period of ten (10) years commencing as of the Commencement Date and expiring at 11:59 p.m. on the Initial Expiration Date. The term of this Lease may be extended by Tenant for two (2) separate terms of five (5) years each (each, an “Extension Term”) if: (a) at least twelve (12), but not more than eighteen (18) months prior to the end of the then current Term, Tenant delivers to Landlord a written notice (an “Extension Notice”) that it desires to exercise its right to extend the Term for one (1) Extension Term; and (b) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date Landlord receives the Extension Notice or on the last day of the then current Term. During any such Extension Term, except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, all of the terms and conditions of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. Once delivered to Landlord, an Extension Notice shall be irrevocable; provided, however, that, Tenant shall have ten (10) Business Days following Landlord’s notice to Tenant of the final determination of the Base Rent for the first Lease Year of the applicable Extension Term to elect to withdraw the applicable Extension Notice, which election must be in writing and once made, shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no right to withdraw an Extension Notice if the Base Rent for the first Lease Year of the applicable Extension Term was calculated based on the Base Rent payable during the immediately preceding Lease Year rather than on the Fair Market Rental for the Premises as determined pursuant to Exhibit E.
1.4    Net Lease. This Lease is intended to be and shall be construed as an absolutely net lease, commonly referred to as a “net, net, net” or “triple net” lease, pursuant to which Landlord shall not, under any circumstances or conditions, whether presently existing or hereafter arising, and whether foreseen or unforeseen by the parties, be required to make any payment or expenditure of any kind whatsoever or be under any other obligation or liability whatsoever, except as expressly set forth herein, in connection with the Premises. All Rent payments shall be absolutely net to Landlord, free of all Impositions, utility charges, operating expenses, insurance premiums or any other charges or expenses in connection with the Premises, all of which shall be paid by Tenant.
Article II
RENT
2.1    Base Rent.
2.1.1    During the Term, commencing as of the Commencement Date, Tenant will pay to Landlord as base rent hereunder (the “Base Rent”), an annual amount equal to Ten Million Seven Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($10,775,000). Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the first day of the second (2nd) Lease Year and the first (1st) day of each Lease Year thereafter during the Term (including, without limitation, any Extension Term), the Base Rent shall increase to an annual amount equal to the sum of (a) the Base Rent for the immediately preceding Lease Year, and (b) the Base Rent for the immediately preceding Lease Year multiplied by the Adjusted CPI Increase. The Base Rent shall be payable in advance in twelve (12) equal monthly installments on or before the first (1st) Business Day of each calendar month; provided, however, the Base Rent attributable to the first (1st) full calendar month of the Term and the calendar month in which the Commencement Date occurs, which may be a partial month, shall be payable on the Commencement Date. Base Rent is also subject to increase from time to time pursuant to Section 7.10.8.
2.1.2    Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.1.1 to the contrary, the Base Rent for the first Lease Year of each Extension Term shall be reset and expressed as an annual amount equal to the greater of: (a) the Fair Market Rental of the Premises, or (b) the sum of (i) the Base Rent payable during the immediately preceding Lease Year, and (ii) the Base Rent for the immediately preceding Lease Year multiplied by the Adjusted CPI Increase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the first day of the second (2nd) Lease Year of any Extension Term, and the first day of each Lease Year thereafter during such Extension Term, the Base Rent shall increase to an annual amount equal to the sum of (1) the Base Rent for the immediately preceding Lease Year, and (2) the Base Rent for the immediately preceding Lease Year multiplied by the Adjusted CPI Increase.
2.2    Additional Rent. In addition to the Base Rent, commencing as of the Commencement Date, Tenant shall also pay and discharge as and when due and payable all other amounts, liabilities and obligations which Tenant assumes or agrees to pay under this Lease. In the event of any failure on the part of Tenant to pay any of those items referred to in the previous sentence, Tenant will also promptly pay and discharge every fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added for non-payment or late payment of the same. Collectively, the items referred to in the first two sentences of this Section 2.2 are referred to as “Additional Rent.” Except as may otherwise be set forth herein, any costs or expenses paid or incurred by Landlord on behalf of Tenant that constitute Additional Rent shall be reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days after the presentation by Landlord to Tenant of invoices therefor.
2.3    Method of Payment. All Rent payable hereunder shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America. Except as may otherwise be specifically set forth herein, Rent shall be prorated as to any partial months at the beginning and end of the Term. Rent to be paid to Landlord shall be paid by electronic funds transfer and shall be initiated by Tenant for settlement on or before the Payment Date; provided, however, if the Payment Date is not a Business Day, then settlement shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day. If Landlord directs Tenant to pay any Base Rent to any party other than Landlord, Tenant shall send to Landlord, simultaneously with such payment, a copy of the transmittal letter or invoice and a check whereby such payment is made or such other evidence of payment as Landlord may reasonably require.
2.4    Late Payment of Rent. Tenant hereby acknowledges that the late payment of Rent will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated hereunder, the exact amount of which is presently anticipated to be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, if any installment of Rent other than Additional Rent payable to a Person other than Landlord (or a Facility Mortgagee) shall not be paid within five (5) days of its Payment Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, a late charge equal to the lesser of (a) five percent (5%) of the amount of such installment or (b) the maximum amount permitted by law. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. The parties further agree that such late charge is Rent and not interest and such assessment does not constitute a lender or borrower/creditor relationship between Landlord and Tenant. In addition, if any installment of Rent other than Additional Rent payable to a Person other than Landlord (or a Facility Mortgagee) shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its Payment Date, the amount unpaid, including any late charges, shall bear interest at the Agreed Rate compounded monthly from such Payment Date to the date of payment thereof, and Tenant shall pay such interest to Landlord on demand. The payment of such late charge or such interest shall neither constitute waiver of nor excuse or cure any default under this Lease, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any other rights and remedies available to Landlord.
2.5    Guaranty. Tenant’s obligations under this Lease are guarantied under that certain Guaranty of Master Lease of even date herewith (as amended, modified or revised, the “Guaranty”). The guarantor or guarantors that are party to the Guaranty from time to time, together with all successors and assigns, are referred to in this Lease, individually and collectively, as “Guarantor”.
Article III
SECURITY DEPOSIT; LETTER OF CREDIT
3.1    Security Deposit. Unless Tenant has made the LC Election pursuant to Section 3.2, Tenant shall pay to and deposit with Landlord an amount equal to three and (3) monthly payments of Base Rent as of the Commencement Date (subject to increase as described in this Section 3.1) as security (the “Security Deposit”) for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of each and every term, provision, covenant and condition of this Lease. The Security Deposit shall be paid by Tenant and deposited with Landlord in three (3) equal monthly installments, with the first (1st) installment due on or prior to the Commencement Date, the second (2nd) installment due on or prior to the first (1st) Business Day of the sixth (6th) calendar month of the Term, and third (3rd) installment due on the first (1st) Business Day of the ninth (9th) calendar month of the Term.
3.1.1    The Security Deposit shall not be deemed an advance payment of Rent or a measure of Landlord’s damages for any default under this Lease by Tenant, nor shall it be a bar or defense to any action that Landlord may at any time commence against Tenant. The Security Deposit shall be the property of Landlord and it may commingle the Security Deposit with other assets of Landlord, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit.
3.1.2    Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord, at its option and in such order as Landlord in its sole discretion may determine, may apply the Security Deposit to any (a) obligation of Tenant under this Lease, or (b) Losses that Landlord may incur in connection with, or related to, this Lease, or any Event of Default under this Lease, whether such obligation or Loss accrues before or after the Event of Default.
3.1.3    If Landlord sells or transfers the Premises or Landlord ceases to have an interest in the Premises, Landlord may remit any unapplied part of the Security Deposit to the successor owner of the Premises, and from and after such payment or transfer, Landlord shall be relieved of all liability with respect thereto. In the case of any partial transfer or cessation, Landlord may transfer such portion of the Security Deposit as Landlord allocates to such part of the Premises, in its reasonable discretion, and from and after such partial transfer or cessation, Landlord shall be relieved of all liability only with respect to such portion of the Security Deposit so transferred.
3.1.4    If Landlord applies the Security Deposit (or any portion thereof), Tenant shall replenish the Security Deposit in full within five (5) Business Days after demand by Landlord, by paying to Landlord the amount of the Security Deposit as so applied. The amount of the Security Deposit is also subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to the provisions of Sections 6.12.1.
3.1.5    If no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Lease and Tenant has fully performed and satisfied all of its obligations under this Lease, then Landlord shall pay the Security Deposit, or remaining unapplied portion thereof, to Tenant within sixty (60) days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and the surrender of the Premises to Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Lease.
3.1.6    If the Base Rent is reduced pursuant to Sections 6.15, 6.16, 11.4, 11.5, 12.3 or 12.4 hereof, then the amount of the Security Deposit required hereunder shall be reduced by the applicable amount of the reduction in monthly payments of Base Rent as a result of such reduction in the Base Rent payable hereunder.
3.2    Letter of Credit. In lieu of depositing cash with Landlord as and when required pursuant to Section 3.1, and upon prior written notice to Landlord, Tenant may elect (such election, the “LC Election”) and Tenant shall deliver to Landlord and maintain during the Term and for sixty (60) days after the Expiration Date, a Letter of Credit in an undrawn face amount equal to three (3) monthly payments of Base Rent (subject to adjustment as provided herein, the “LC Amount”) as partial collateral for Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. The Letter of Credit may be deposited by Tenant with Landlord in three (3) equal installments in the same manner as the cash Security Deposit under Section 3.1. During any period in which the LC Election has been made, the following terms and provisions shall apply:
3.2.1    Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, draw upon the Letter of Credit (in whole or in part) and apply the cash proceeds thereof to the obligations due from Tenant under this Lease and to compensate Landlord for the damages suffered or incurred by it in connection with such Event of Default (or any other Event of Default). Any amount drawn by Landlord shall not be deemed: (a) to fix or determine the amounts to which Landlord is entitled to recover under this Lease or otherwise; (b) to waive or cure any default under this Lease; or (c) to limit or waive Landlord’s right to pursue any remedies provided for in this Lease.
3.2.2    Together with any increase in the Base Rent, the LC Amount shall be increased by the amount necessary to make the LC Amount equal to three (3) monthly installments of Base Rent. Within five (5) days after such increase in the LC Amount, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a replacement or supplementary Letter of Credit such that at all times during the Term of this Lease and for sixty (60) days after the Expiration Date, Landlord shall be holding one or more Letters of Credit totaling, in the aggregate, the LC Amount (as so increased). Tenant covenants as follows: (a) on or before thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of the then issued and outstanding Letter of Credit, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit in the LC Amount; (b) if all or any portion of the Letter of Credit is drawn against by Landlord, Tenant shall, within five (5) Business Days after demand by Landlord, deposit with Landlord a replacement or supplementary Letter of Credit such that at all times during the term of this Lease and for sixty (60) days after the Expiration Date, Landlord shall have the ability to draw on one or more Letters of Credit totaling, in the aggregate, the LC Amount; and (c) following an Issuer Revocation, Tenant shall obtain a replacement Letter of Credit in the LC Amount from another Issuer within fifteen (15) days of Landlord’s written demand therefor. If Tenant fails to timely perform any of the foregoing, then in addition to any other rights and remedies available under this Lease, Landlord may immediately draw upon the full amount of the then issued and outstanding Letter of Credit. The LC Amount is also subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to the provisions of Sections 6.12.1. If Landlord has not drawn upon the then issued and outstanding Letter of Credit, Landlord shall return said Letter of Credit to Tenant sixty (60) days after the Expiration Date.
3.2.3    Upon the issuance of a replacement Letter of Credit, Landlord shall have the right to draw solely on such replacement Letter of Credit and Landlord shall have no right to draw against the Letter of Credit which is replaced by such replacement Letter of Credit.
3.2.4    Tenant shall have the right to deposit with Landlord one or more Letters of Credit to satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.2, so long as the aggregate undrawn face amount of all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit equal the LC Amount.
3.2.5    Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of any written demand by Landlord, Tenant shall produce to Landlord (a) evidence satisfactory to Landlord, in the exercise of its commercially reasonable judgment, that Issuer is then in compliance with the Issuer Standards, and (b) such other information concerning Issuer as Landlord may reasonably request.
3.2.6    If Landlord draws on a Letter of Credit, the cash proceeds thereof not used to compensate Landlord for amounts due to Landlord under this Lease by reason of an Event of Default shall be held by Landlord as an additional security deposit under this Lease and Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, apply such cash proceeds to the obligations due from Tenant under this Lease and to compensate Landlord for the damages suffered or incurred by it in connection with such Event of Default (or any other Event of Default). The holding of such cash proceeds by Landlord shall not limit or stay Tenant’s obligation hereunder to cause to be issued a Letter of Credit in the LC Amount. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing (except an Event a Default that would be fully cured by the posting of a Letter of Credit in the LC Amount), upon Landlord’s receipt of a Letter of Credit in the LC Amount, any such cash proceeds then held by Landlord shall be returned to Tenant. If requested by Tenant, Landlord shall make such cash proceeds available to collateralize a replacement Letter of Credit or supplemental Letter of Credit pursuant to a written agreement with the applicable Issuer, whereby Landlord shall agree to disburse such cash proceeds to the applicable Issuer upon such Issuer’s irrevocable and unconditional commitment to issue the applicable replacement Letter of Credit or supplemental Letter of Credit upon its receipt of such cash proceeds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be required to make such cash proceeds available if an Event of Default then exists. If no Event of Default exists under this Lease as of the Expiration Date, any cash proceeds then held by Landlord shall be returned to Tenant within sixty (60) days following the Expiration Date.
3.2.7    If Landlord sells or transfers the Premises or Landlord ceases to have an interest in the Premises, Landlord may transfer the Letter of Credit to the successor owner of the Premises, and from and after such transfer, Landlord shall be relieved of all liability with respect thereto.
3.2.8    In the event that when the LC Election is made, Landlord is holding the Security Deposit pursuant to Section 3.1 above, then upon Landlord’s receipt of (i) written notice from Tenant making the LC Election and (ii) a Letter of Credit in the LC Amount satisfying the provisions of this Section 3.2, any such cash Security Deposit then held by Landlord shall be returned to Tenant.
Article IV
IMPOSITIONS AND OTHER CHARGES
4.1    Impositions.
4.1.1    Subject to Section 4.5, Tenant shall pay all Impositions attributable to a tax period, or portion thereof, occurring during the Term (irrespective of whether the Impositions for such tax period are due and payable after the Term), when due and before any fine, penalty, premium, interest or other cost may be added for non-payment. Where feasible, such payments shall be made directly to the taxing authorities. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Tenant may exercise the option to pay same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments (provided no such installments shall extend beyond the Term) and, in such event, shall pay such installments during the Term before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added thereto. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, not less than five (5) days prior to the due date of each Imposition, copies of the invoice for such Imposition, the check delivered for payment thereof and an original receipt evidencing such payment or other proof of payment satisfactory to Landlord.
4.1.2    Notwithstanding Section 4.1.1 to the contrary, with respect to those Impositions, if any, that Landlord is required by Legal Requirements to remit directly to the applicable taxing authority, Landlord shall pay such Impositions directly to such taxing authority and within ten (10) Business Days after Landlord delivering to Tenant notice and evidence of such payment, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such paid Impositions. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, promptly provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to any Facility as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports.
4.1.3    Tenant shall prepare and file all tax returns and reports as may be required by Legal Requirements with respect to or relating to all Impositions (other than those Impositions, if any, based on Landlord’s net income, gross receipts, franchise taxes and taxes on its capital stock).
4.1.4    Tenant may, upon notice to Landlord, at Tenant’s option and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, protest, appeal or institute such other proceedings as Tenant may deem appropriate to effect a reduction of real estate or personal property assessments and Landlord, at Tenant’s expense, shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant in such protest, appeal or other action; provided, however, that upon Landlord’s request in connection with any such protest or appeal, Tenant shall post an adequate bond or deposit sufficient sums with Landlord to insure payment of any such real estate or personal property assessments during the pendency of any such protest or appeal.
4.1.5    Landlord or Landlord’s designee shall use reasonable efforts to give prompt notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge, provided, however, that any failure by Landlord to provide such notice to Tenant shall in no way relieve Tenant of its obligation to timely pay the Impositions, but, with respect to any such Impositions of which Tenant does not otherwise have knowledge, such failure by Landlord shall suspend any default by Tenant hereunder for a reasonable time after Tenant receives notice of any Impositions which it is obligated to pay.
4.1.6    Impositions imposed or assessed in respect of the tax-fiscal period during which the Term commences or terminates shall be adjusted and prorated between Landlord and Tenant, whether or not such Imposition is imposed or assessed before or after such commencement or termination, and Tenant’s obligation to pay its prorated share thereof shall survive such termination.
4.2    Utilities; CC&Rs. Tenant shall pay any and all charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and other utilities used in connection with each Facility during the Term. Tenant shall also pay all costs and expenses of any kind whatsoever which may be imposed against Landlord during the Term by reason of any of the covenants, conditions and/or restrictions affecting any Facility or any portion thereof, or with respect to easements, licenses or other rights over, across or with respect to any adjacent or other property which benefits any Facility, including any and all costs and expenses associated with any utility, drainage and parking easements. If Landlord is billed directly for any of the foregoing costs, Landlord shall send Tenant the bill and Tenant shall pay the same before it is due.
4.3    Insurance. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all premiums for the insurance coverage required to be maintained by Tenant hereunder.
4.4    Other Charges. Tenant shall pay all other amounts, liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses paid or incurred with respect to the repair, replacement, restoration, maintenance and operation of each Facility.
4.5    Real Property Imposition Impounds.
4.5.1    At Landlord’s election and upon written notice to Tenant, Tenant shall include with each payment of Base Rent a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of 100% of the amount required to discharge the annual amount of Real Property Impositions. Landlord may, at its option, from time to time require that any particular deposit be greater than one-twelfth (1/12th) of 100% of the estimated annual Real Property Impositions if necessary, in the exercise of Landlord’s reasonable judgment, to provide a sufficient fund from which to make payment of such Real Property Impositions on or before the next due date of any installment thereof. Additionally, Landlord may change its estimate of any Real Property Imposition for any period on the basis of a change in an assessment or tax rate or for any other good faith reason. In such event, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the amount in excess of the sums previously deposited with Landlord for the applicable period within ten (10) days after Landlord’s request therefor. If at any time within thirty (30) days before the due date of any Real Property Imposition, the deposits are insufficient for the payment in full of the obligation for which the deposits are being held, Tenant shall remit the amount of the deficiency to Landlord within ten (10) days after written demand from Landlord. If Landlord elects to require Tenant to impound Real Property Impositions hereunder, Tenant shall, as soon as they are received, deliver to Landlord copies of all notices, demands, claims, bills and receipts in relation to the Real Property Impositions. To the extent Tenant pays Impositions to Landlord pursuant to this Section 4.5, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation under this Lease to pay such Impositions to the taxing authority to which such Impositions would otherwise be due. Upon Tenant’s written request, which may be made within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of each calendar year, Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s request, provide Tenant with an accounting showing all credits and debits to and from such impounded funds for Real Estate Impositions received by Landlord from Tenant for the prior calendar year.
4.5.2    The sums deposited by Tenant under this Section 4.5 shall be held by Landlord, shall not bear interest nor be held by Landlord in trust or as an agent of Tenant, and may be commingled with the other assets of Landlord. Provided no Event of Default then exists under this Lease, and provided that Tenant has timely delivered to Landlord copies of any bills, claims or notices that Tenant has received, the sums deposited by Tenant under this Section 4.5 shall be used by Landlord to pay Real Property Impositions as the same become due. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord may apply any funds held by it under this Section 4.5 to cure such Event of Default or on account of any damages suffered or incurred by Landlord in connection therewith or to any other obligations of Tenant arising under this Lease, in such order as Landlord in its discretion may determine.
4.5.3    If Landlord transfers this Lease, it shall transfer all amounts then held by it under this Section 4.5 to the transferee, and Landlord shall thereafter have no liability of any kind with respect thereto. As of the Expiration Date, any sums held by Landlord under this Section 4.5 shall be returned to Tenant, only as and when the conditions of Section 3.1, or if the LC Election has been made, of Section 3.2, for the return of the Security Deposit or Letter of Credit, as applicable, have been met and provided that any and all Real Property Impositions accrued or due and owing hereunder have been paid in full.
4.5.4    Notwithstanding anything herein which may be construed to the contrary, if Landlord elects to require Tenant to impound Real Property Impositions hereunder, Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for failing to pay any Real Property Impositions to the extent that: (a) any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) insufficient deposits under this Section 4.5 are held by Landlord at the time such Real Property Impositions become due and payable, or (c) Tenant has failed to provide Landlord with copies of the bills, notices, and claims for such Real Property Impositions as required pursuant to Section 4.5.1.
Article V
ACCEPTANCE OF PREMISES; NO IMPAIRMENT
5.1    Acceptance of Premises. Tenant acknowledges that it or its Affiliates has expertise in business and industry of operating healthcare facilities for the Primary Intended Use and, in deciding to enter into this Lease, has not relied on any representations or warranties, express or implied, of any kind from Landlord other than as expressly set forth in this Lease. Tenant acknowledges receipt and delivery of possession of the Premises and confirms that Tenant has examined and otherwise has knowledge of the condition of the Premises, including the condition of title thereto, prior to the execution and delivery of this Lease and has found the same to be in good order and repair, free from Hazardous Materials not in compliance with applicable Hazardous Materials Laws and satisfactory for its purposes hereunder, including the operation of the Facilities for the Primary Intended Use. Regardless, however, of any examination or inspection made by Tenant and whether or not any patent or latent defect or condition was revealed or discovered thereby, Tenant is leasing the Premises “as is” in its present condition. Other than as expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant waives any claim or action against Landlord in respect of the condition of the Premises including any defects or adverse conditions not discovered or otherwise known by Tenant as of the Commencement Date. LANDLORD MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE PREMISES, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, OR AS TO THE NATURE OR QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, OR THE EXISTENCE OF ANY HAZARDOUS MATERIALS, IT BEING AGREED THAT ALL SUCH RISKS, LATENT OR PATENT, ARE TO BE BORNE SOLELY BY TENANT, OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS LEASE.
5.2    No Impairment. The respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant shall not be affected or impaired by reason of (a) any damage to, or destruction of, any Facility, from whatever cause, or any Condemnation of any Facility (except as otherwise expressly and specifically provided in Article XI or Article XII); (b) the interruption or discontinuation of any service or utility servicing any Facility; (c) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of, or restriction upon, Tenant’s use of any Facility due to the interference with such use by any Person or eviction by paramount title (other than Landlord, or those claiming by, through or under Landlord, in contravention of this Lease); (d) any claim that Tenant has or might have against Landlord on account of any breach of warranty or default by Landlord under this Lease or any other agreement by which Landlord is bound; (e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings affecting Landlord or any assignee or transferee of Landlord; (f) any Licensing Impairment; or (g) for any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing. Tenant hereby specifically waives all rights, arising from any occurrence whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by law or equity (x) to modify, surrender or terminate this Lease or quit or surrender any Facility, or (y) that would entitle Tenant to any abatement, reduction, offset, suspension or deferment of Rent, except if and to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Lease. Nothing herein shall preclude Tenant from bringing a separate action and Tenant is not waiving other rights or remedies not expressly waived herein. The obligations of Landlord and Tenant hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements and Rent shall continue to be payable in all events unless, until and to the extent the obligations to pay the same shall be terminated pursuant to the express provisions of this Lease. Tenant’s sole right to recover damages against Landlord under this Lease shall be to prove such damages in a separate action.
Article VI
OPERATING COVENANTS
6.1    Tenant Personal Property. Tenant shall obtain and install all items of furniture, fixtures, supplies and equipment not included as Landlord Personal Property as shall be necessary or reasonably appropriate to operate each Facility in compliance with this Lease (the “Tenant Personal Property”). Except to the extent expressly provided in this Lease, Landlord shall have no rights to Tenant Personal Property and, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time, Tenant shall have the right to remove all Tenant Personal Property from the Premises at the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. Tenant may remove items of Tenant Personal Property from time to time during the Term, provided that any such Tenant Personal Property as is then required, necessary or appropriate for Tenant’s operation of the Facility from which such items are removed for its Primary Intended Use shall be replaced by like items as are then required, necessary or appropriate for the operation of the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease.
6.2    Landlord Personal Property. Tenant may, from time to time, in Tenant’s reasonable discretion, without notice to or approval of Landlord, sell or dispose of any item of the Landlord Personal Property; provided, however, that, unless such item is functionally obsolete, Tenant shall promptly replace such item with an item of similar or superior quality, use and functionality, and any such replacement item shall, for all purposes of this Lease, continue to be treated as part of the “Landlord Personal Property.” Tenant shall, promptly upon Landlord’s written request from time to time, provide such information as Landlord may reasonably request relative to any sales, dispositions or replacements of the Landlord Personal Property pursuant to this Section 6.2 and, within a reasonable time upon Landlord’s written request from time to time (a) not to exceed one (1) in any twelve (12) month period and (b) promptly during the continuance of an Event of Default, shall provide to Landlord with an updated inventory of the Landlord Personal Property.
6.3    Primary Intended Use. During the entire Term, Tenant shall continually use each Facility for its Primary Intended Use (subject temporary suspension due casualty or condemnation as provided in Articles XI and XII) and for no other use or purposes and shall operate each Facility in a manner consistent with a good quality healthcare facility, including employing sound reimbursement principles under all applicable Third Party Payor Programs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon Landlord’s prior written approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), and provided that it is permitted by the applicable Governmental Authority of the Situs State in which the Facility is located, Tenant may from time to time remove beds from service at a Facility without reducing the number of licensed Medicare and Medicaid certified beds that may be operated at such Facility and while retaining the right to return any such beds to service at such Facility (so-called “bed banking”) provided further that (i) such removal shall not exceed more than ten percent (10%) of the number of beds at the applicable Facility, (ii) not less than thirty (30) days prior to removing such beds from service, Tenant shall request in writing Landlord’s approval, which request shall include, or have delivered therewith, (a) detailed descriptions of the beds being removed, the reasons for such bed removal, estimates of the cost of implementing such bed changes, and the projected impact of such bed changes upon such Facility, and (b) evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that Tenant has obtained all necessary regulatory approvals for the proposed reduction of beds in service, that such beds continue to be considered “licensed” and “certified” beds by the applicable governmental authority and agencies and that Tenant or any successor operator of such Facility retains the right, at the end of the bed banking period, to return such beds to service at the applicable Facility as licensed Medicare and Medicaid certified beds.
6.4    Compliance with Legal Requirements and Authorizations.
6.4.1    Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly (a) comply with all Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements regarding the use, condition and operation of each Facility, the Landlord Personal Property and the Tenant Personal Property, and (b) procure, maintain and comply with all Authorizations. The Authorizations for any Facility shall, to the maximum extent permitted by Legal Requirements, relate and apply exclusively to such Facility, and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, subject to all applicable Legal Requirements, the Authorizations (other than the Provider Agreements) are appurtenant to the Facilities to which they apply, both during and following the termination or expiration of the Term. Landlord will cooperate with Tenant and use commercially reasonable efforts, where necessary or required of Landlord as owner of the Premises, to enable Tenant to obtain and maintain the Authorizations necessary or required to use and operate any Facility for its Primary Intended Use.
6.4.2    Tenant and the Premises shall comply in all respects with all licensing and other Legal Requirements applicable to the Premises and the business conducted thereon and, to the extent applicable, all Third Party Payor Program requirements. Tenant shall not commit any act or omission that would in any way violate any certificate of occupancy affecting any Facility, result in closure of any Facility, result in the termination or suspension of Tenant’s ability to operate any Facility for its Primary Intended Use or result in the termination, suspension, non-renewal or other limitation of any Authorization, including, but not limited to, the authority to admit residents to any Facility or right to receive reimbursement for items or services provided at any Facility from any Third Party Payor Program.
6.4.3    Tenant shall not transfer any Authorizations to any location operated by Tenant other than the Facility or as otherwise required by the terms of this Lease nor pledge any Authorizations as collateral security for any loan or indebtedness except as required by the terms of this Lease and subject to the intercreditor agreement with Tenant’s working capital lender as provided in Section 20.2 to the extent applicable.
6.4.4    Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, to the extent that on the Commencement Date any of the Leased Improvements constitute a legally permitted non-conforming use or structure, or are the subject of any waiver, variance or special use permit, under applicable zoning, subdivision or other land use laws, ordinances or regulations, Landlord acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Lease with respect to Tenant’s compliance with all Legal Requirements in this Section 6.4 and Tenant’s maintenance and repair obligations under Section 7.1 shall not be deemed to be breached, nor shall Tenant be deemed to have failed to perform its obligations hereunder, by Tenant maintaining such Leased Improvements in good order and repair for at least the same use and in at least the same configuration and condition as exists on the Commencement Date and in compliance with the applicable waiver, variance, special use permit or similar exception to the applicable Legal Requirement.
6.5    Preservation of Business. Tenant acknowledges that a fair return to Landlord on and protection of its investment in the Premises is dependent, in part, on the concentration of similar businesses of Tenant and its Affiliates in the geographical area of each Facility. Tenant further acknowledges that the diversion of staff, residents, or patient care activities from any Facility to other facilities owned or operated by Tenant, Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates will have a material adverse effect on the value and utility of such Facility. Therefore, Tenant agrees that none of Tenant, Guarantor, nor any of their respective Affiliates shall, without the prior written consent of Landlord (which may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion): (a) during the Term and for a period of one (1) year thereafter (i) operate, own, develop, lease, manage, control, invest in, participate in or otherwise receive revenues from a Competing Facility, (ii) permit his, her or its name to be used by, or in connection with, any Competing Facility, (iii) except as is necessary to provide residents or patients with an alternative level of care, or in connection with a casualty, or as is otherwise necessary to the health and welfare of any resident or patient, recommend or solicit directly (as contrasted with a general advertising campaign) the removal or transfer of any resident or patient from any Facility to any other nursing, health care, senior housing, or retirement housing facility or divert actual or potential residents, patients or care activities of any Facility to any other facilities owned or operated by Tenant, Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates or from which they receive any type of referral fees or other compensation for transfers, or (b) during the last year of the Term or any applicable Extension Term (unless Tenant has elected to renew this Lease for the next applicable Extension Term) employ for any other businesses any Administrator, Executive Director or Director of Nursing working on or in connection with any Facility or the operations thereof provided that this clause shall not preclude the promotion or career development of any Administrator, Executive Director or Director of Nursing. The obligations of Tenant and Guarantor under this Section 6.5 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
6.6    Maintenance of Books and Records. Tenant shall keep and maintain, or cause to be kept and maintained, proper and accurate books and records in accordance with GAAP, and a standard modern system of accounting, in all material respects reflecting the financial affairs of Tenant and the results from operations of each Facility, individually and collectively. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time during normal business hours after three (3) Business Days’ prior oral or written notice to Tenant, itself or through any of Landlord’s Representatives, to examine and audit such books and records at the office of Tenant or other Person maintaining such books and records and to make such copies or extracts thereof as Landlord or Landlord’s Representatives shall request and Tenant hereby agrees to reasonably cooperate with any such examination or audit at Tenant’s cost and expense.
6.7    Financial, Management and Regulatory Reports. Tenant shall provide Landlord with the reports listed in Exhibit D within the applicable time specified therein. All financial information provided shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and, provided that such template is provide to Tenant sufficiently in advance for Tenant to review and implement, shall be submitted electronically using the applicable template approved by Landlord in its reasonable discretion from time to time or, if no such template is provided by Landlord, in the form of unrestricted, unlocked “.xls” spreadsheets created using Microsoft Excel (2003 or newer editions). If Tenant or any Guarantor becomes subject to any reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission during the Term, it shall concurrently deliver to Landlord such quarterly and annual reports not otherwise provided for on Exhibit D as are delivered pursuant to applicable securities laws. In addition to, and without limiting any other remedies which Landlord may have under this Lease, at law, or in equity, Tenant shall be assessed with a $500 administrative fee for each instance in which Tenant fails to provide Landlord with the reports listed in Exhibit D within the applicable time specified therein, which administrative fee shall be immediately due and payable to Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such administrative fee shall not be assessed to Tenant so long as (a) Tenant is not delinquent in the delivery of such financial reports more than one (1) time in any consecutive twelve (12) month period, and (b) Tenant remits any delinquent report to Landlord within five (5) days of Landlord’s written demand therefor.
6.7.1    In addition to the reports required under Section 6.7 above, upon Landlord’s request from time to time, Tenant shall provide Landlord with such additional information and unaudited quarterly financial information concerning each Facility, the operations thereof and Tenant and Guarantor as Landlord may reasonably require for purposes of securing financing for the Premises or its ongoing filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, under both the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including, but not limited to, 10-Q Quarterly Reports, 10-K Annual Reports and registration statements to be filed by Landlord during the Term, subject to the conditions that neither Tenant nor Guarantor shall be required to disclose information that is materially non-public information or is subject to the quality assurance immunity or is subject to attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine.
6.7.2    Tenant specifically agrees that Landlord may include financial information and such information concerning the operation of any Facility which does not violate the confidentiality of the facility-patient relationship and the physician-patient privilege under applicable laws, in offering memoranda or prospectuses, or similar publications in connection with syndications, private placements or public offerings of Landlord’s securities or interests, and any other reporting requirements under applicable federal or state laws, including those of any successor to Landlord.
6.7.3    Landlord acknowledges and agrees that certain of the information contained in the financial statements and/or in the financials may be non-public financial or operational information with respect to Guarantor, Tenant and/or the Facilities. Landlord agrees to maintain the confidentiality of such non-public information to the extent specifically identified by Tenant or Guarantor as non-public; provided, however, Landlord shall have the right to disclose such information with its accountants, attorneys and other consultants provided such disclosure is not prohibited by applicable Legal Requirements.
6.8    Estoppel Certificates. Tenant shall, at any time upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by Landlord, have an authorized representative execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord or its designee a written statement certifying, to the extent true at that time (a) that this Lease, together with any specified modifications, is in full force and effect, (b) the dates to which Rent and additional charges have been paid, (c) that no default by either party exists or specifying any such default and (d) as to such other matters as Landlord may reasonably request.
6.9    Furnish Information. Tenant shall, promptly upon Tenant or Guarantor obtaining knowledge of the same, notify Landlord of any condition or event that constitutes a breach of any term, condition, warranty, representation, or provision of this Lease and of any material adverse change in the financial condition of any Tenant or Guarantor and of any Event of Default.
6.10    Affiliate Transactions. Tenant shall not enter into, nor be a party to, any transaction with any Affiliate of Tenant or any of the partners, members or shareholders of Tenant except in the Ordinary Course of Business and on terms that are materially no less favorable to Tenant than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with an unrelated third party in the current market. As of the Commencement Date, Tenant is a party to certain agreements identified on Schedule 6.10 attached hereto (collectively, the “Affiliate Agreements”). Tenant shall provide Landlord annually during the Term, within ten (10) Business Days after each anniversary of the Commencement Date, with an updated Schedule 6.10 reflecting any additional Affiliate Agreements that have been entered into by Tenant or modifications to or terminations of existing Affiliate Agreements, and, upon request from Landlord, executed copies thereof.
6.11    Waste. Tenant shall not commit or suffer to be committed any waste on any of the Premises, nor shall Tenant cause or permit any nuisance thereon.
6.12    Additional Covenants. Tenant shall satisfy and comply with the following performance covenants throughout the Term:
6.12.1    Tenant shall maintain a Portfolio Coverage Ratio equal to or greater than the Minimum Rent Coverage Ratio. In the event that as of the applicable Testing Date, the Portfolio Coverage Ratio for the applicable period of determination is less than the Minimum Rent Coverage Ratio, an Event of Default shall not be deemed to occur provided that: (a) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, (b) with respect to any period after expiration of the third (3rd) Lease Year, the Portfolio Coverage Ratio as of such Testing Date is greater than 1.00 to 1.00, and (c) Tenant shall immediately deposit with Landlord an amount equal to the difference between: (i) the amount equal to four (4) monthly payments of then Base Rent, and (ii) the then amount of any Security Deposit or Letters of Credit, as applicable, then held by Landlord pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2 (the amount of said difference, the “Additional Deposit”). The Additional Deposit shall be held by Landlord as an additional security deposit under this Lease and Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, apply such Additional Deposit to the obligations due from Tenant under this Lease. The Additional Deposit shall not be deemed an advance payment of Rent or a measure of Landlord’s damages for any default under this Lease by Tenant, nor shall it be a bar or defense to any action that Landlord may at any time commence against Tenant. The Additional Deposit shall be the property of Landlord and it may commingle the Additional Deposit with other assets of Landlord, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest on the Additional Deposit. Provided that no Event of Default then exists and is continuing, following the date on which Landlord determines that the Portfolio Coverage Ratio for two (2) consecutive Testing Dates is greater than or equal to the Minimum Rent Coverage Ratio, Landlord will cause the Additional Deposit to be returned to Tenant.
6.12.2    Subject to Section 20.2, Tenant shall not, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume, guarantee or otherwise become or remain directly or indirectly liable with respect to (i) any Debt except for Permitted Debt; or (ii) any Contingent Obligations except for Permitted Contingent Obligations.

6.12.4    Tenant shall not cancel or otherwise forgive or release any material claim or material debt owed to any Tenant by any Person for goods or services provided by or rendered at any Facility, except in the Ordinary Course of Business and consistent with prudent business practices. If any proceedings are filed seeking to enjoin or otherwise prevent or declare invalid or unlawful Tenant’s occupancy, maintenance, or operation of a Facility or any portion thereof for its Primary Intended Use, Tenant shall cause such proceedings to be vigorously contested in good faith, and shall, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, use all reasonable commercial efforts to bring about a favorable and speedy disposition of all such proceedings and any other proceedings.
6.12.5    After the occurrence of an Event of Default, then until such Event of Default is cured in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, no Tenant shall make any payments or distributions of cash or the assets of the Facilities (including dividends, liquidating distributions, or cash flow distributions) to any Guarantor or any Affiliate of any Tenant or any Guarantor, or any shareholder, member, partner or other equity interest holder of any Tenant, any Guarantor or any Affiliate of any Tenant or any Guarantor. For purposes of this Section 6.12.5, none of the following shall be deemed to be a payment or distribution: (i) salaries, bonuses and other compensation paid to employees, (ii) payments of Permitted Debt, (iii) reimbursement for third party expenses paid on behalf of or which are fairly allocable to the Facilities, or (iv) payment of any other fees, costs or expenses necessary or required in the Ordinary Course of Business for the continued operation and maintenance of the Facilities, including without limitation payment of the fees permitted under the Affiliate Agreements necessary or required for the continued operation and maintenance of the Facilities.

Without Landlord’s prior written consent, Tenant shall not cause or permit any of Landlord Personal Property to be subject to any lien, charge, encumbrance, financing statement, contract of sale or the like, except for (i) equipment leases, if any, that will be assumed by Tenant on or prior to the Commencement Date with respect to certain equipment located at a Facility on the Commencement Date, and (ii) equipment leases that constitute Permitted Debt.
6.14    Landlord Trade Names and Marks. Tenant shall not use any trade or service name or mark of, or any fictitious business name used by, Landlord or its Affiliates, or any variations thereof, including “Golden Living,” “Aegis, “AseraCare” or any variation of any of the foregoing.

7.1    Tenant’s Maintenance Obligation. Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall (a) keep and maintain each Facility in good appearance, repair and condition, and maintain proper housekeeping, (b) promptly make all repairs (interior and exterior, structural and nonstructural, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen) necessary to keep each Facility in good and lawful order and condition and in compliance with all Legal Requirements, Insurance Requirements and Authorizations and to maintain each Facility in a good quality operating and structural condition for use for its Primary Intended Use (ordinary wear and tear excepted subject to Tenant's obligation to maintain, repair and replace the same in accordance with the terms of this Lease), and (c) keep and maintain all Landlord Personal Property and Tenant Personal Property in good condition and repair and replace such property consistent with prudent industry practice, excepting damage due to casualty or condemnation to the extent provided in Articles XI and XII respectively. All repairs performed by Tenant shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner. Landlord shall under no circumstances be required to repair, replace, build or rebuild any improvements on any Facility, or to make any repairs, replacements, alterations, restorations or renewals of any nature or description to any Facility, whether ordinary or extraordinary, structural or non-structural, foreseen or unforeseen, or to make any expenditure whatsoever with respect thereto, or to maintain any Facility in any way. Tenant hereby waives, to the extent permitted by law or any equitable principle, the right to make repairs at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law currently in effect or hereafter enacted.
7.2    Premises Condition Report. Landlord may from time to time cause a qualified consultant designated by Landlord, in its sole discretion, to inspect any Facility and issue a report (a “Premises Condition Report”) with respect to such Facility’s condition.

Tenant shall pay the cost of any Premises Condition Report ordered by Landlord (a) during the continuance of and Event of Default, and (b) at all other times, not to exceed one (1) time per Facility in any eighteen (18) month period, the cost of which shall not exceed $2,500 per report, per Facility.
7.3    Notice of Non-Responsibility. Nothing contained in this Lease and no action or inaction by Landlord shall be construed as (a) constituting the consent or request of Landlord, expressed or implied, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer, materialman or vendor to or for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property for the construction, alteration, addition, repair or demolition of or to any Facility or any part thereof; or (b) giving Tenant any right, power or permission to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against Landlord in respect thereof or to make any agreement that may create, or in any way be the basis for, any right, title, interest, lien, claim or other encumbrance upon the estate of Landlord in any Facility or any portion thereof. Landlord may post, at Tenant’s sole cost, such notices of non-responsibility upon, or of record against, any Facility to prevent the lien of any contractor, subcontractor, laborer, materialman or vendor providing work, services or supplies to Tenant from attaching against such Facility. Tenant agrees to promptly execute and record any such notice of non-responsibility at Tenant’s sole cost.
7.4    Permitted Alterations. Without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, Tenant shall not make any Capital Alterations or Material Alterations. Tenant may, without Landlord’s consent, make any other Alterations provided the same (a) do not decrease the value of the applicable Facility, (b) do not adversely affect the exterior appearance of such Facility and (c) are consistent in terms of style, quality and workmanship to the original Leased Improvements and Fixtures of such Facility, and provided further that the same are constructed and performed in accordance with the following:
7.4.1    Such construction shall not commence until Tenant shall have procured and paid for all municipal and other governmental permits and authorizations required therefor (as well as any permits or approvals required in connection with any Permitted Encumbrance of such Facility); provided, however, that any Plans and Specifications required to be filed in connection with any such permits or authorizations that require the approval of Landlord shall have been so approved by Landlord.
7.4.2    During and following completion of such construction, the parking that is located on the Land of such Facility shall remain adequate for the operation of such Facility for its Primary Intended Use and in no event shall such parking be less than what is required by any applicable Legal Requirements or was located on such Land prior to such construction.
7.4.3    All work done in connection with such construction shall be done promptly and in a good and workmanlike manner using materials of appropriate grade and quality consistent with the existing materials and in conformity with all Legal Requirements and any Plans and Specifications.
7.4.4    If, by reason of the construction of any Alteration, a new or revised certificate of occupancy for any component of such Facility is required, Tenant shall obtain such certificate in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements and furnish a copy of the same to Landlord promptly upon receipt thereof.
7.4.5    Upon completion of any Alteration, Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord final lien waivers from each and every general contractor and, with respect to Alterations costing in excess of $10,000, each and every subcontractor that provided goods or services costing in excess of $10,000 in connection with such Alterations indicating that such contractor or subcontractor has been paid in full for such goods or services, together with such other evidence as Landlord may reasonably require to satisfy Landlord that no liens have been or may be created in connection with such Alteration.
7.4.6    Each and every Alteration, renovation or improvement made by Tenant under this Section 7.4 (or Section 7.5) shall immediately become a part of the Premises and shall belong to Landlord subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease.
7.5    Capital and Material Alterations. If Landlord consents to the making of any Capital Alterations or Material Alterations, Landlord may impose commercially reasonable conditions thereon in connection with its approval thereof. In addition to any such imposed conditions, all such Alterations shall be constructed and performed in accordance with Sections 7.4.1 through 7.4.5 above, together with the following:
7.5.1    Prior to commencing any such Alterations, Tenant shall have submitted to Landlord a written proposal describing in reasonable detail such proposed Alteration and shall provide to Landlord for approval such plans and specifications, permits, licenses, construction budgets and other information (collectively, the “Plans and Specifications”) as Landlord shall request, showing in reasonable detail the scope and nature of the proposed Alteration.
7.5.2    Such construction shall not, and prior to commencement of such construction Tenant’s licensed architect or engineer (to the extent the services of a licensed architect or engineer are required in connection with such Alterations) shall certify to Landlord that such construction shall not, impair the structural strength of such Facility or overburden or impair the operating efficiency of the electrical, water, plumbing, HVAC or other building systems of such Facility.
7.5.3    Prior to commencing any such Alterations, Tenant’s licensed architect or engineer (to the extent the services of a licensed architect or engineer are required in connection with such Alterations) shall certify to Landlord that the Plans and Specifications conform to and comply with all applicable Legal Requirements and Authorizations.
7.5.4    Promptly following the completion of the construction of any such Alterations, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord: (a) “as built” drawings of any such Alterations included therein, if applicable, certified as accurate by the licensed architect or engineer selected by Tenant to supervise such work; and (b) a certificate from Tenant’s licensed architect or engineer certifying to Landlord that such Alterations have been completed in compliance with the Plans and Specifications and all applicable Legal Requirements.
7.6    Capital Expenditures.
7.6.1    With respect to all Facilities in the aggregate, Tenant agrees to expend, during each Lease Year, an amount (the “Required Capital Expenditures Amount”) equal to the product of (a) the Required Per Bed Annual Capital Expenditures Amount (as increased at the end of each Lease Year to reflect the Adjusted CPI Increase during the immediately preceding Lease Year), times (b) the weighted average of the number of licensed beds in all Facilities during such Lease Year, on Capital Expenditures, provided that, with respect to any Facility individually, such expenditures shall not be less than (x) the Facility Required Per Bed Annual Capital Expenditures Amount times (y) the weighted average of the number of licensed beds in such Facility during such Lease Year. Within thirty (30) days following the end of each Lease Year, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a report (a “Capital Expenditures Report”), certified as true, correct and complete by an officer of Tenant, summarizing and describing in reasonable detail all of the Capital Expenditures made by Tenant during the preceding Lease Year on each Facility, and such receipts and other information as Landlord may reasonably request relative to the Capital Expenditures made by Tenant during the applicable Lease Year. If, with respect to any Facility individually or all Facilities in the aggregate, the amount of the Capital Expenditures so made and reported by Tenant during a particular Lease Year (the “Actual Capital Expenditures Amount”) is less than the Required Capital Expenditures Amount applicable to such period, Tenant shall, on or prior to the due date of the Capital Expenditures Report for such period, deposit (a “Capital Expenditures Deposit”) with Landlord an amount equal to the amount by which the Required Capital Expenditures Amount for the applicable period exceeds the Actual Capital Expenditures Amount for such period. If, with respect to any Facility individually or all Facilities in the aggregate, the Actual Capital Expenditures Amount so made and reported by Tenant during a particular Lease Year is greater than the Required Capital Expenditures Amount applicable to such period (such difference being referred to herein as the “Excess Capital Expenditures Amount”), then, (a) provided no Event of Default then exists hereunder, within ten (10) days after Tenant’s presentation of its Capital Expenditures Report reflecting such greater expenditure, subject to reasonable extension if required under the Facility Mortgage Documents, Landlord shall pay to Tenant the lesser of (x) the Excess Capital Expenditures Amount or (y) the amount of funds then held by Landlord as Capital Expenditures Deposits with respect to the applicable Facility or Facilities, and (b) to the extent that the Excess Capital Expenditures Amount exceeds the amount of funds then held by Landlord as Capital Expenditures Deposits with respect to such Facility or Facilities, such excess shall be credited against the Required Capital Expenditures Amount for up to the next two (2) succeeding Lease Years with respect to such Facility or Facilities.
7.6.2    Tenant’s obligation to deliver the Capital Expenditures Report applicable to the last Lease Year, together with Tenant’s obligation to deliver any Capital Expenditures Deposit associated therewith, shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. If, on the basis of such Capital Expenditures Report, Tenant is entitled to a payment of any Excess Capital Expenditures Amount as described in Section 7.6.1 above, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, such payment shall be due and payable to Tenant only as and when the conditions of Section 3.1 or 3.2 for the return of the Security Deposit or Letter of Credit, as applicable, have been met. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, all Capital Expenditures Deposits held by Landlord (including, without limitation, any Capital Expenditures Deposits that are required to be deposited by Tenant with respect to the last Lease Year) shall automatically and without further action of the parties become the property of Landlord, without any obligation on Landlord’s part to credit Tenant in any manner therefor.
7.6.3    The Capital Expenditures Deposits held by Landlord shall not bear interest and may be commingled with the other assets of Landlord. If Landlord transfers this Lease, it shall transfer all Capital Expenditures Deposits then held by it to the transferee, and Landlord shall thereafter have no liability of any kind with respect thereto. Following any Event of Default and at Landlord’s option, the Capital Expenditures Deposits held by Landlord may, in its sole discretion, be applied to Tenant’s obligations in the order that Landlord in its sole discretion may determine.
7.7    Construction Consultant. In connection with any Capital Alterations or Material Alterations, Landlord may engage a construction consultant (a “Construction Consultant”) to perform or assist with Landlord’s review and approval of the Plans and Specifications, periodic inspection of the improvement work, certification of progress and completion, review of disbursement requests and lien waivers and such other matters as Landlord may require in connection with such Alterations. The reasonable costs and expenses of the Construction Consultant shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant. Tenant shall cooperate with any Construction Consultant and provide such access to books, records, information and the Premises as Construction Consultant may reasonably request in connection with his or her work.
7.8    Encroachments. Except for any such encroachments existing on the Commencement Date, if any of the Leased Improvements of any Facility shall, at any time, encroach upon any property, street or right-of-way adjacent to such Facility, then, promptly upon the request of Landlord, Tenant shall, at its expense, subject to its right to contest the existence of any encroachment and, in such case, in the event of any adverse final determination, either (a) obtain valid waivers or settlements of all claims, liabilities and damages resulting from each such encroachment, whether the same shall affect Landlord or Tenant, or (b) make such changes in such Leased Improvements, and take such other actions, as Tenant, in the good faith exercise of its judgment, deems reasonably practicable, to remove such encroachment, including, if necessary, the alteration of any of such Leased Improvements, and in any event take all such actions as may be necessary to be able to continue the operation of such Leased Improvements for the Primary Intended Use of such Facility substantially in the manner and to the extent such Leased Improvements were operated prior to the assertion of such encroachment. Any such alteration shall be made in conformity with the applicable requirements of Sections 7.4 and 7.5.
7.9    Capital Alterations Financed by Landlord. From time to time during the Term, Tenant may request that Landlord provide financing for a Capital Alteration by providing Landlord such information about the proposed Capital Alteration as Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord may in its sole and absolute discretion, but shall be under no obligation to, agree to provide such financing (“Improvement Funds”) for such Capital Alteration through an appropriate increase in Base Rent as agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of a request to finance a proposed Capital Alteration, Landlord shall notify Tenant as to whether it will finance the proposed Capital Alteration and, if so, the terms and conditions upon which it would do so, including the terms of the increase in Base Rent and other required amendments to this Lease. Tenant shall have ten (10) Business Days to accept or reject Landlord's financing proposal. In no event shall the portion of the projected Capital Alteration comprised of land, if any, materials, labor charges and fixtures be less than ninety percent (90%) of the total amount of the projected cost of such Capital Alteration. If Landlord agrees to provide Improvement Funds for a proposed Capital Alteration and Tenant accepts the terms thereof, Tenant shall provide Landlord with the following prior to any advance of funds:
7.9.1    any information, certificates, licenses, permits or documents requested by Landlord which are necessary and obtainable to confirm that Tenant will be able to use the Capital Alteration upon completion thereof in accordance with the Primary Intended Use and all Legal Requirements;
7.9.2    an officer’s certificate and, if requested, a certificate from Tenant's architect, setting forth in reasonable detail the projected or actual Capital Alteration costs;

9.2    General Insurance Requirements.
9.2.1    All of the policies of insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease shall (a) be written in form satisfactory to Landlord and any Facility Mortgage and, with the exception of any policies written by a captive insurance program pursuant to Section 9.9, issued by insurance companies (i) with a policyholder and financial rating of not less than A- VII in the most recent version of Best’s Key Rating Guide and (ii) authorized to do insurance business in the applicable Situs State; (b) provide that any insurance maintained by Landlord for or with respect to the Premises shall be excess and noncontributory with Tenant’s insurance; and (c) include a waiver of all rights of subrogation and recovery against Landlord.
9.2.2    All liability type policies (with the exception of Tenant’s workers’ compensation/employer’s liability insurance and professional liability insurance) must name Landlord, agents and managers, as an “additional insured.” All property policies shall name Landlord as “loss payee.” All business interruption policies shall name Landlord as “loss payee” with respect to Rent only. Losses shall be payable to Landlord and/or Tenant as provided herein. In addition, the policies, as appropriate, shall name as an “additional insured” or “loss payee” any Facility Mortgagee by way of a standard form of mortgagee’s loss payable endorsement. Any loss adjustment shall require the written consent of Landlord, Tenant, and each Facility Mortgagee unless the amount of the loss is less than $100,000 in which event no consent shall be required.
9.2.3    Tenant shall provide Landlord a satisfactory ACORD evidencing the existence of the insurance required by this Lease and showing the interest of Landlord (and any Facility Mortgagee(s)) prior to the commencement of the Term or, for a renewal policy, not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration date of the policy being renewed. If Landlord is provided with an ACORD certificate and thereafter requests a complete copy of the applicable policy, Tenant shall provide a complete copy of such policy within ten (10) days of Landlord’s request.
9.2.4    Tenant’s obligations to carry the insurance provided for herein may be brought within the coverage of a so-called “blanket” policy or policies of insurance carried and maintained by Tenant; provided, however, that the coverage afforded Landlord will not be reduced or diminished or otherwise be materially different from that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other requirements hereof by reason of the use of the blanket policy, and provided further that the requirements of this section (including satisfaction of the Facility Mortgagee’s requirements and the approval of the Facility Mortgagee) are otherwise satisfied, and provided further that Tenant maintains specific allocations acceptable to Landlord. For any liability policies covering one or more other properties in addition to the Premises, Landlord may require excess limits as Landlord reasonably determines.
9.2.5    Tenant shall provide to Landlord thirty (30) days’ written notice before the policy or policies in question required under this Article IX shall be materially altered, non-renewed or cancelled.
9.3    Replacement Costs. The term “replacement cost” shall mean the actual replacement cost of the insured property from time to time with new materials and workmanship of like kind and quality (including the cost of compliance with changes in zoning and building codes and other laws and regulations, demolition and debris removal and increased cost of construction). If Landlord believes that the replacement cost has increased at any time during the Term, it shall have the right to have such replacement cost determined by an impartial appraiser reasonably acceptable to both parties (the “impartial appraiser”). The determination of the impartial appraiser shall be final and binding, and, as necessary, Tenant shall increase, but not decrease, the amount of the insurance carried pursuant to this section to the amount so determined by the impartial appraiser. Each party shall pay one-half (1/2) of the fee, if any, of the impartial appraiser. If Tenant has made Alterations, Landlord may at Tenant’s expense have the replacement cost redetermined at any time after such Alterations are made.
9.4    Claims-Made Policies. If Tenant obtains and maintains the commercial general liability coverage and/or professional liability coverage described in Sections 9.1.5 and 9.1.6 on a “claims-made” basis, Tenant shall provide continuous liability coverage for claims arising during the Term providing for an extended reporting period reasonably acceptable to Landlord for a minimum of two (2) years after expiration of the Term. If such policy is canceled or not renewed for any reason whatsoever other than the expiration of the Term, Tenant must provide evidence of a replacement policy reflecting coverage with retroactive coverage back to the Commencement Date and maintain such coverage for a period of at least two (2) years beyond the expiration of the Term or Tenant must obtain tail coverage for the length of the remaining Term plus an additional two (2) years beyond the expiration of the Term.
9.5    Non-Renewal. If Tenant fails to cause the insurance required under Article IX to be issued in the names herein called for, fails to pay the premiums therefor or fails to deliver such policies or certificates thereof to Landlord, at the times required, Landlord shall be entitled, but shall have no obligation, to obtain such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, in which event the cost thereof, together with interest thereon at the Agreed Rate, shall be repayable to Landlord upon demand therefor.
9.6    Increase in Limits; Types of Coverages. If Landlord determines in the exercise of its commercially reasonable judgment that the limits of the insurance required to be maintained by Tenant hereunder are no longer commensurate to the limits being regularly required by institutional landlords of similar properties in the applicable Situs State or their institutional lenders or that a particular type of insurance coverage is being regularly required by institutional landlords of similar properties in the applicable Situs State or their institutional lenders and is not then required hereunder, Landlord may notify Tenant of the same, indicating the particular limit or type of coverage that Landlord has determined should be increased or carried by Tenant, as applicable. Unless Tenant, in the exercise of its commercially reasonable judgment, objects to Landlord’s determination, then within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice, Tenant shall thereafter increase the particular limit or obtain the particular coverage, as applicable, unless and until further modified pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.6. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord shall not request a modification of the insurance requirements of this Lease more frequently than once every two (2) years. If Tenant, in the exercise of its commercially reasonable judgment, objects to Landlord’s determination made under this Section 9.6 and Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the matter within fifteen (15) days of Tenant’s receipt of the applicable notice from Landlord, such determination shall be made by a reputable insurance or risk management consultant or expert (an “Insurance Arbitrator”) with experience in the healthcare insurance industry as mutually identified by Landlord and Tenant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. As a condition to a determination of commercial reasonableness with respect to any particular matter, the Insurance Arbitrator shall be capable of providing, procuring or identifying particular policies or coverages that would be available to Tenant and would satisfy the requirement in issue. The determinations made by any such experts shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant for purposes of this Section 9.6, and the costs, fees and expenses of the same shall be shared equally by Tenant and Landlord. If Tenant and Landlord are unable to mutually agree upon an Insurance Arbitrator, each party shall within ten (10) days after written demand by the other select one Insurance Arbitrator. Within ten (10) days of such selection, the Insurance Arbitrators so selected by the parties shall select a third (3rd) Insurance Arbitrator who shall be solely responsible for rendering a final determination with respect to the insurance requirement in issue. If either party fails to select an Insurance Arbitrator within the time period set forth above, the Insurance Arbitrator selected by the other party shall alone render the final determination with respect to the insurance requirement in issue in accordance with the foregoing provisions and such final determination shall be binding upon the parties. If the Insurance Arbitrators selected by the parties are unable to agree upon a third (3rd) Insurance Arbitrator within the time period set forth above, either party shall have the right to apply at Tenant’s and Landlord’s joint expense to the presiding judge of the court of original trial jurisdiction in the county in which any Facility is located to name the third (3rd) Insurance Arbitrator.
9.7    No Separate Insurance. Tenant shall not, on Tenant’s own initiative or pursuant to the request or requirement of any third party, (a) take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required in this Article IX to be furnished by, or which may reasonably be required to be furnished by, Tenant or (b) increase the amounts of any then existing insurance by securing an additional policy or additional policies, unless all parties having an insurable interest in the subject matter of the insurance, including in all cases Landlord and all Facility Mortgagees, are included therein as additional insureds and the loss is payable under such insurance in the same manner as losses are payable under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit Tenant from insuring against risks not required to be insured hereby, and as to such insurance, Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee need not be included therein as additional insureds, nor must the loss thereunder be payable in the same manner as losses are payable hereunder except to the extent required to avoid a default under the Facility Mortgage.
9.8    Alternate Coverages. In the event that at any time during the Term the professional liability insurance coverage required under Section 9.1.6 is not generally available to operators of skilled nursing facilities in the market area in which the Facilities are located at commercially affordable rates and on commercially reasonable terms and conditions, Landlord agrees that, the provisions of Section 9.1.6 to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not be required to obtain the coverages required therein and Landlord agrees to accept, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned, in place thereof to cover the risk either or a combination of (i) a policy or policies of professional liability insurance limits and coverages that are generally available to operators of skilled nursing facilities in the market area in which the Facilities are located at commercially affordable rates and on commercially reasonable terms and conditions, and/or (ii) an additional security deposit, self-insurance by Tenant, the establishment of a loss reserve to be funded by Tenant and held by Landlord, or other alternative insurance containing commercially reasonable terms and conditions, provided that such alternative insurance is (a) permitted under all Legal Requirements applicable to Tenant and/or the Facilities at the time in question and (b) such alternative insurance is in compliance with all Legal Requirements applicable to such alternative insurance. Prior to making any such switch, Tenant shall be obligated to provide Landlord with supporting evidence from its insurance broker or carrier demonstrating the existence of the conditions set forth herein permitting Tenant to do so and the sufficiency of such evidence shall be subject to the advance written approval of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. At such time as the professional liability insurance coverages required under Section 9.1.6 are available to Tenant at commercially affordable rates and on commercially reasonable terms and conditions, then Tenant shall immediately purchase and provide Landlord with evidence of professional liability insurance coverage necessary to meet the requirements of Section 9.1.6. In the event that, as a result of the professional liability coverage required under Section 9.1.6 not being available as provided in this Section 9.8, the general liability insurance coverage required under Section 9.1.5 is also not available to Tenant at commercially affordable rates and on commercially reasonable terms and conditions, then the provisions of this Section 9.8 shall likewise apply to and include the general liability coverage required under Section 9.15.
9.9    Captive Insurance Program. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 9, so long as Diversicare Healthcare Services, Inc. or its permitted successor is a Guarantor, Tenant shall have the right to satisfy its insurance obligations under Sections 9.1.5 and 9.1.6 (the “Specified Non-Property Insurance”) of this Lease by means of an alternative “captive” insurance program to the extent of all or part of the Specified Non-Property Insurance required under this Article 9, provide that (a) such alternative “captive” insurance program is permitted under all Legal Requirements applicable to Tenant and/or the Facilities at the time in question and (b) such alternative “captive” insurance program is in compliance with all Legal Requirements applicable to such alternative “captive” insurance. To the extent Tenant chooses to provide any of the Specified Non-Property Insurance otherwise required by this Lease through an alternative “captive” insurance program, then Tenant and Guarantor shall have all of the obligations and liabilities of an insurer, and the protection afforded Landlord, any Facility Mortgagee, and each Facility shall be the same as if provided by a non-affiliated third-party insurer under the coverages required under this Lease. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all amounts which a “captive” insurer pays or is required to pay and all losses or damages resulting from risks for which Tenant has elected to maintain an alternative “captive” insurance program with respect to shall be subject to the waiver of subrogation provisions of Section 9.2.1, and shall not limit any of Tenant’s indemnification obligations pursuant to this Lease. In the event that Tenant elects to maintain an alternative “captive” insurance program and an event or claim occurs for which a defense and/or coverage would have been available from a third-party insurer, Tenant and Guarantor shall undertake to cause its “captive” insurer to undertake the defense of any such claim, including a defense of Landlord, at their sole cost and expense, and use their own funds to pay any claim or replace any property or otherwise provide the funding which would have been available from insurance proceeds but for such election by Tenant to maintain an alternative “captive” insurance program. In the event that Tenant elects to maintain an alternative “captive” insurance program pursuant to this Section 9.9, Tenant shall provide Lessor and any Facility Mortgagee with certificates of insurance specifying the extent of such insurance coverage and Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of the captive’s audited financial statements on an annual basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.9, Tenant shall not have the right to satisfy its insurance obligations under Sections 9.1.1, 9.1.2, 9.1.3 and 9.1.4 by means of an alternative “captive” insurance program. In the event that Tenant converts any insurance provided through an alternative “captive” insurance program to insurance provided by a non-affiliated third-party insurer, Tenant shall provide to Landlord evidence of such insurance concurrently with the effectiveness thereof.

10.3.5    As of the Commencement Date, Tenant has each Authorization and other rights from, and has made all declarations and filings with, all applicable Governmental Authorities, all self-regulatory authorities and all courts and other tribunals necessary, to Tenant’s knowledge, to engage in the management and operation of the Facilities for the Primary Intended Use. As of the Commencement Date, no Governmental Authority is, to Tenant’s knowledge, considering limiting, suspending or revoking any such Authorization. As of the Commencement Date, all such Authorizations are valid and in full force and effect and Tenant is in material compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Authorizations.
Article XI
DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION
11.1    Notice of Damage or Destruction. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any damage or destruction of any Facility in excess of $50,000. Said notification shall include: (a) the date of the damage or destruction and the Facility or Facilities damaged, (b) the nature of the damage or destruction together with a description of the extent of such damage or destruction, (c) a preliminary estimate of the cost to repair, rebuild, restore or replace the Facility, and (d) a preliminary estimate of the schedule to complete the repair, rebuilding, restoration or replacement of the Facility.
11.2     Restoration. Subject to its receipt of net insurance proceeds to the extent provided in this Lease, Tenant shall diligently repair or reconstruct any Facility that has been damaged or destroyed to a like or better condition than existed prior to such damage or destruction in accordance with Section 7.5. Any net insurance proceeds payable with respect to such damage or destruction (i) if $50,000 or less shall be paid directly to Tenant for the repair or reconstruction of such Facility or (ii) if in excess of $50,000, shall be paid directly to Landlord and; provided Tenant is diligently performing the restoration and repair work with respect to such Facility and no Event of Default has occurred hereunder, shall be used for the repair or reconstruction of such Facility. Landlord shall disburse any such net insurance proceeds as and when required by Tenant in accordance with normal and customary practice for the payment of a general contractor in connection with construction projects similar in scope and nature to the work being performed by or on behalf of Tenant, including, without limitation, the withholding of ten percent (10%) of each disbursement until the required work is completed as evidenced by a certificate of occupancy or similar evidence issued upon an inspection by the applicable Governmental Authority and proof has been furnished to Landlord that no lien has attached or will attach to the applicable Facility in connection with the restoration and repair work. If the Facility is able to be restored as provided herein but the applicable laws, rules or regulations of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the repair or reconstruction then in effect results in a reduced number of licensed beds at the Facility, then the current Base Rent shall be proportionally reduced as provided in Section 12.4 in the case of a Partial Taking.
11.3    Insufficient or Excess Proceeds. If the net insurance proceeds paid to Landlord in connection with any such damage or destruction are insufficient, Tenant shall nevertheless remain responsible, at its sole cost and expense, to repair and reconstruct the applicable Facility as required in this Article XI and Tenant shall provide the required additional funds. Except as provided in Section 11.4, and except to the extent such damage or destruction is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or those for whom it may at law be responsible, Tenant expressly assumes all risk of loss in connection with any damage or destruction to a Facility, whether or not such damage or destruction is insurable or insured against. Tenant shall pay any insurance deductible and any other uninsured Losses, except in the event such damage or destruction is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or those for whom it may at law be responsible, in which event Landlord shall be responsible for the deductible and any other uninsured Losses. If the net insurance proceeds paid to Landlord in connection with any such damage or destruction are more than sufficient, the surplus shall belong and be paid to Tenant; provided, however, that any such surplus shall be paid by Landlord to Tenant only following the disbursement of net insurance proceeds necessary to complete the repair and restoration work as required pursuant to this Article XI. Except as provided in Section 11.4, Tenant shall not have any right under this Lease, and hereby waives all rights under applicable law, to abate, reduce, or offset rent by reason of any damage or destruction of any Facility by reason of an insured or uninsured casualty.
11.4    Facility Mortgagee. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that any Facility Mortgagee may retain and disburse any net insurance proceeds payable in connection with any damage or destruction to a Facility. In such event, Tenant shall comply with the requests and requirements of such Facility Mortgagee in connection with the performance of the repair and restoration work and the disbursement of the net insurance proceeds in connection therewith. If, in connection with any damage or destruction to a Facility that results in the loss of fifty percent (50%) or more of the licensed beds at the affected Facility or that would cost more than fifty percent (50%) of the value of such Facility to restore, any Facility Mortgagee elects to require that any net insurance proceeds payable in connection with such damage or destruction to a Facility be applied by Landlord to reduce the outstanding principal balance of any Facility Mortgage, Landlord may elect, in its sole discretion and by notice to Tenant delivered promptly after the receipt by Landlord of notice of such election from Facility Mortgagee, to terminate this Lease as to the affected Facility, in which event the Facility shall be removed from this Lease and the then current Base Rent shall be equitably abated as of the effective date of such termination based on the allocable share of Landlord’s investment in the Premises to the affected Facility. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall remain liable for any uninsured portion of any damage or destruction if this Lease is so terminated as to the applicable Facility, except to the extent such damage or destruction is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or those for whom it may at law be responsible. If Landlord elects not to terminate this Lease as to the affected Facility (despite the applicable Facility Mortgagee having made the election to require that any net insurance proceeds payable in connection with such damage or destruction to a Facility be applied by Landlord to reduce the outstanding principal balance of such Facility Mortgage), Landlord’s own funds shall be disbursed to Tenant from time to time as, when, and subject to the satisfaction of the same terms, conditions and requirements as would have governed the disbursement of net insurance proceeds that Landlord’s funds replace.
11.5    Tenant’s Termination Right. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, if in connection with any damage or destruction to a Facility that results in the loss of fifty percent (50%) or less of the licensed beds at the affected Facility or that would cost less than fifty percent (50%) of the value of such Facility to restore, a Facility Mortgagee elects to apply the insurance proceeds, or any portion thereof, to the indebtedness secured by the Facility Mortgage such that the full amount of the net insurance proceeds payable as a result of the damage or destruction are not made available to Tenant for the repair or restoration of the Facility, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as to the affected Facility upon written notice of termination to Landlord, such termination to be effective as of the first (1st) day of the calendar month following the later of (a) the date Tenant learns of the action of the Facility Mortgagee or (b) fifteen (15) days after the date Landlord learns of the action of the Facility Mortgagee, unless, in either case, within fifteen (15) Business Days after Landlord’s receipt of the notice from Tenant, Landlord agrees to make available to Tenant for restoration to or repair of the Facility cash funds equal to the amount of the net insurance proceeds so applied to such indebtedness secured by the Facility Mortgagee. Landlord shall disburse such funds to Tenant as provided in Section 11.2 and upon receipt of such funds Tenant shall restore the Facility as required by Section 11.2. In the event this Lease is terminated as to a Facility pursuant to this Section 11.5, the Facility shall be removed from this Lease and the then current Base Rent shall be proportionally reduced as provided in Section 11.4. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall remain liable for any uninsured portion of any damage or destruction if this Lease is so terminated as to the applicable Facility, except to the extent such damage or destruction is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or those for whom it may at law be responsible.
Article XII
CONDEMNATION
12.1    General. Except as provided to the contrary in this Article XII, a Condemnation of any Facility or any portion thereof shall not terminate this Lease, which shall remain in full force and effect, and Tenant hereby waives all rights under applicable law to abate, reduce or offset Rent by reason of any such Condemnation.
12.2    Notice of Taking. Tenant and Landlord, as the case may be, promptly upon obtaining knowledge of the institution of any proceeding for a Condemnation, shall each notify the other and any Facility Mortgagee thereof and Tenant, Landlord and Facility Mortgagee shall be entitled to participate in any Condemnation proceeding.
12.3    Complete Taking. In the event of a Complete Taking of any Facility and as of the effective date of such Complete Taking, this Lease shall automatically terminate with respect to such Facility, the Facility shall be removed from this Lease and the then current Base Rent shall be proportionally reduced based on the ratio of the applicable Facility’s EBITDARM to the EBITDARM of all Facilities. The applicable calculations of EBITDARM shall be based on Tenant’s financials for the calendar quarter most recently ended as of the effective date of such Complete Taking.
12.4    Partial Taking. In the event of a Partial Taking of any Facility, this Lease shall remain in effect as to such Facility and, except as specifically set forth herein, Tenant’s obligation to make payments of Rent and to pay all other charges required under this Lease with respect to such Facility shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding such Partial Taking. If Landlord determines in its commercially reasonable judgment that the Facility subject to the Partial Taking is fully or partially restorable, Tenant shall diligently repair or reconstruct such Facility to a like or better condition than existed prior to such damage or destruction in accordance with Section 7.5, provided that any net condemnation award received by Landlord with respect to such Partial Taking shall be paid directly to Landlord and, provided Tenant is diligently performing the restoration and repair work with respect to such Facility and no Event of Default has occurred hereunder, shall be made available to Tenant to be used by Tenant for costs of the repair or reconstruction of such Facility. If, after Tenant’s compliance with the restoration obligation in the foregoing sentence, such Partial Taking results in a reduced number of licensed beds at such Facility, then the current Base Rent shall be proportionally reduced based on (a) the ratio of the number of licensed beds reduced at such Facility to the total number of licensed beds at such Facility (prior to such Partial Taking) and (b) the ratio of the applicable Facility’s EBITDARM to the EBITDARM of all Facilities. The applicable calculations of EBITDARM shall be based on Tenant’s financials for the calendar quarter most recently ended as of the effective date of such Partial Taking. By way of example only, if (1) a Facility originally containing 100 licensed beds suffers a casualty and the number of licensed beds is reduced to 80; (2) the total Base Rent under this Lease, prior to such casualty, is $1,000,000; (3) the total EBITDARM for all Facilities is $12,000,000.00; and (4) the EBITDARM for the damaged Facility is $4,000,000.00, then the Base Rent would be reduced by $66,666.67 (i.e., (20 licensed beds /100 licensed beds) * ($4,000,000/$12,000,000) *($1,000,000).
12.5    Temporary Taking. In the event of a Temporary Taking of any Facility, this Lease shall remain in effect as to such Facility, Tenant’s obligation to make payments of Rent and to pay all other charges required under this Lease with respect to such Facility shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding such Temporary Taking, and Tenant shall be responsible for all obligations hereunder not affected by such Temporary Taking.
12.6    Award Distribution. Landlord alone shall be entitled to receive and retain any award for a Condemnation other than a Temporary Taking; provided, however, Landlord shall make available to Tenant the portion of the award necessary and specifically identified for restoration of the affected Facility (pursuant to Landlord’s disbursement requirements); and provided, further, that Tenant shall be entitled to submit its own claim in the event of any such Condemnation with respect to the value of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the applicable Facility, Tenant’s Personal Property, Tenant’s lost profits and/or the relocation costs incurred by Tenant as a result thereof. In the event of a Temporary Taking of any Facility, Tenant shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all awards for the Temporary Taking. If the period of the Temporary Taking shall extend beyond the Expiration Date, that part of the award for such Temporary Taking which represents compensation for the use or occupancy of such Facility (or a part thereof) shall be divided between Landlord and Tenant so that Tenant shall receive so much thereof as represents the period to and including the Expiration Date and Landlord shall receive so much as represents the period subsequent to the Expiration Date and, if applicable, Landlord shall be entitled to receive that portion which represents reimbursement for the cost of restoring the Premises as a result of such Temporary Taking.
12.7    Relationship to Facility Mortgage. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that any Facility Mortgagee is entitled to any Condemnation award, or any portion thereof, under the terms of any Facility Mortgage, such award shall be applied, held and/or disbursed in accordance with the terms of the Facility Mortgage. In the event that the Facility Mortgagee elects to apply the award to the indebtedness secured by the Facility Mortgage in the case of a Partial Taking as to which the restoration provisions of this Article XII apply, Landlord agrees to make available to Tenant for restoration of such Facility funds equal to the amount applied by the Facility Mortgagee.
Article XIII
DEFAULT
13.1    Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” and there shall be no cure period therefor except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 13.1:
13.1.1    Tenant shall fail to pay any installment of Rent, or any installment of the Security Deposit due pursuant to Section 3.1, within three (3) Business Days of its Payment Date;
13.1.2    (a) The final and non-appealable (provided that during any period of appeal Tenant is permitted to continue and continues operation of the affected Facility in compliance with this Lease) revocation or termination of any Authorization that would have a material adverse effect on the operation of any Facility for its Primary Intended Use; (b) except as permitted pursuant to the terms of Article XI or Article XII in connection with a casualty or Condemnation, the voluntarily cessation of operations at any Facility; (c) the sale or transfer of all or any portion of any Authorization; or (d) the use of any Facility other than for its Primary Intended Use;
13.1.3    Any material suspension, limitation or restriction placed upon Tenant, any Authorization, any Facility, the operations at any Facility or Tenant’s ability to admit residents or patients at the Premises (e.g., an admissions ban or non-payment for new admissions by any Thirty Party Payor Program resulting from an inspection survey); provided, however, if any such material suspension, limitation or restriction (each a “Citation”) is curable by Tenant under the applicable Authorization or Legal Requirement, it shall not constitute an Event of Default if Tenant promptly commences to cure such Citation and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to the completion thereof (a) within thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the time period in which the applicable Governmental Authority has given Tenant to undertake corrective action or (b) if such period is sixty (60) days or less, then no later than the number of days ( rounded up to the next full day in case of a partial day) equal to one-half (1/2) of the time period within which the applicable Governmental Authority has given Tenant to undertake corrective action (the “Citation Cure Period”). Landlord shall extend the Citation Cure Period with respect to any Citation to the extent that Tenant has received from such Governmental Authority an extension of the time within which such noncompliance is required to be cured or Tenant is contesting or appealing such Citation in good faith by appropriate proceedings, timely filed and diligently prosecuted by Tenant (provided that during any period of contest appeal Tenant is permitted under all Legal Requirements to continue, and continues, operation of the affected Facility in compliance with this Lease). Upon the occurrence of any Citation, Tenant will promptly provide Landlord with notice of such Citation as required under this Lease and, upon becoming available, will provide Landlord with a copy of Tenant’s plan of correction for the cure or abatement of the Citation or, if contested or appealed, a copy of such contest or appeal. During any cure or appeal period, Tenant will promptly provide Landlord with any additional notices or documents submitted or received by Tenant with respect to the progress of such cure or appeal. If during such cure or appeal period, Landlord reasonably and in good faith determines that the Citation Cure Period is likely to expire without completion of necessary efforts to cure the Citation, or Tenant’s contest or appeal period is likely to expire without removal of the Citation, then Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to), at its option and regardless of whether Tenant is proceeding to cure or attempting to cure the Citation, and without waiving or releasing any obligation on the part of Tenant or waiving or suspending any Event of Default, take and perform such actions as Landlord, in its reasonable business judgment deems necessary, required or appropriate to attempt to cure or abate the Citation within the time period allowed or specified by the governmental agency, or prevent the Citation from becoming final and non-appealable, and may enter upon the Facility for such purpose. If Landlord so proceeds to attempt to cure the Citation, Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for the reasonable amount of all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord in curing or attempting to cure, the Citation;
13.1.4    A default shall occur under any other lease or agreement between Landlord or an Affiliate of Landlord and Tenant (or Guarantor) or an Affiliate of Tenant (or Guarantor), or any letter of credit, guaranty, mortgage, deed of trust, or other instrument executed by Tenant (or Guarantor) or an Affiliate of Tenant (or Guarantor) in favor of Landlord or an Affiliate of Landlord, in every case, whether now or hereafter existing, where the default is not cured within any applicable grace period set forth therein;
13.1.5    (a) A breach of or default by Guarantor of its financial covenants under Guarantor’s Senior Credit Facility, which breach or default is not cured within any applicable grace or cure period provided therein, unless a waiver or amendment addressing such breach or default is obtained from the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility, (b) a material default or breach by the Affiliate of Tenant that is the tenant/lessee or subtenant/sublessee under any Related Lease that is not cured within any applicable cure period provided for therein and with respect to which a claim is made by the landlord/lessor under such Related Lease against the Affiliate of Landlord responsible for the obligations of the tenant/lessee under such Related Lease, or (c) a default by Tenant or Guarantor shall occur under any lease, guaranty, loan or financing agreement, with any other party that is not cured within any applicable cure period provided for therein, which default could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of Tenant to perform it obligations under this Lease or of Guarantor to perform its obligations under the Guaranty;
13.1.6    Tenant, any Guarantor or any Affiliate of either if the same results in a substantive consolidation affecting Tenant or any Guarantor (each a “Tenant Party”) shall (a) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; (b) file a petition in bankruptcy or a petition to take advantage of any insolvency act; (c) make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (d) consent to the appointment of a receiver of itself or of the whole or any substantial part of its property; or (e) file a petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement under the Federal bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law or statute of the United States of America or any state thereof;
13.1.7    Any petition is filed by or against any Tenant Party under federal bankruptcy laws, or any other proceeding is instituted by or against any Tenant Party seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for any Tenant Party, or for any substantial part of the property of any Tenant Party, and Tenant fails to notify Landlord of such proceeding within three (3) Business Days of the institution thereof and such proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after institution thereof, or any Tenant Party shall take any action to authorize or effect any of the actions set forth above in this Section 13.1.7;
13.1.8    Any of the representations or warranties made by Tenant in this Lease or by Guarantor in the Guaranty proves to be untrue when made in any material respect;
13.1.9    Tenant fails to observe or perform any term, covenant or other obligation of Tenant set forth in Section 6.7 and such failure is not cured within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such failure from Landlord;
13.1.10    Tenant fails to perform or comply with the provisions of Section 3.1 or Section 3.2, as applicable, Section 6.12, Section 6.13, Article IX or Article XVII within the applicable time periods set forth therein, if any; or
13.1.11    Tenant fails to observe or perform any other term, covenant or condition of this Lease and such failure is not cured by Tenant within thirty (30) days after notice thereof from Landlord, unless such failure cannot with due diligence be cured within a period of thirty (30) days, in which case such failure shall not be deemed to be an Event of Default if Tenant proceeds promptly and with due diligence to cure the failure and diligently completes the curing thereof within sixty (60) days after such notice from Landlord; provided, however, that such notice shall be in lieu of and not in addition to any notice required under applicable law. No Event of Default (other than those consisting of payments and other financial obligations, including, without limitation, the payment of Rent hereunder) shall be deemed to exist under this Section 13.1.11 during any time the curing thereof is prevented by an “Force Majeure,” provided that Tenant shall use its reasonable best efforts to remedy the Force Majeure to the extent Tenant is reasonably or practically able to do so and that, upon the cessation of the Force Majeure, Tenant immediately shall proceed to diligently remedy the action or condition giving rise to the Event of Default within the applicable cure period as extended by the Force Majeure. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, “Force Majeure” shall mean delays due to power failure, acts of God, enemy action, civil commotion, extreme weather or, to the extent approved Landlord in its reasonable discretion, other causes beyond the control of the party responsible for performing an obligation. Neither lack of funds nor general economic and or market factors shall not be deemed Force Majeure event that is beyond the control of Tenant. In the event of any occurrence which Tenant believes constitutes a cause beyond the reasonable control of Tenant and which will delay cure of the subject default, Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord in writing of the occurrence and nature of such cause, the anticipated period of delay and the steps being taken by Tenant to mitigate the effects of such delay.
13.2    Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may exercise all rights and remedies under this Lease and the laws of the applicable Situs State that are available to a lessor of real and personal property in the event of a default by its lessee, and as to the Lease Collateral, all remedies granted under the laws of the applicable Situs State to a secured party under its Uniform Commercial Code. Landlord shall have no duty to mitigate damages unless required by applicable law and shall not be responsible or liable for any failure to relet any Facility or to collect any rent due upon any such reletting. Tenant shall pay Landlord, immediately upon demand, all expenses incurred by it in obtaining possession and reletting any Facility, including fees, commissions and costs of attorneys, architects, agents and brokers.
13.2.1    Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation) to do any of the following upon an Event of Default, in each case to the extent permitted under applicable law: (a) sue for the specific performance of any covenant of Tenant as to which it is in breach and/or sue for summary possession of the Premises; (b) enter upon any Facility, terminate this Lease, dispossess Tenant from any Facility and/or collect money damages by reason of Tenant’s breach, including the acceleration of all Rent which would have accrued after such termination and all obligations and liabilities of Tenant under this Lease which survive the termination of the Term; (c) elect to leave this Lease in place and sue for Rent and other money damages as the same come due; (d) (before or after repossession of a Facility pursuant to clause (b) above and whether or not this Lease has been terminated) relet such Facility to such tenant, for such term (which may be greater or less than the remaining balance of the Term), rent, conditions (which may include concessions or free rent) and uses as it may determine in its sole discretion and collect and receive any rents payable by reason of such reletting; (e) sell any Lease Collateral in a non-judicial foreclosure sale; and (f) sue for distress of unpaid Rent.
13.2.2    Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and upon commencement of proceedings to enforce the rights of Landlord hereunder, Landlord shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to appoint a receiver to take possession of the Premises, pending the outcome of such proceedings, to manage the operation of the Premises, to collect and disburse all rents, issues, profits and income generated thereby and to the extent applicable and possible, to preserve or replace any Authorization or to otherwise substitute the licensee or provider thereof. If a receiver is appointed pursuant hereto, the receiver shall be paid a reasonable fee for its services and all such fees and other expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with the appointment of the receiver shall be paid in addition to, and not in limitation of, the Rent otherwise due to Landlord hereunder. Tenant irrevocably consents to the appointment of a receiver following an Event of Default and thus stipulates to and agrees not to contest the appointment of a receiver under such circumstances and for such purposes.
13.2.3    If Tenant at any time shall fail to make any payment or perform any act on its part required to be made or performed under this Lease, then Landlord may, without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations or default hereunder, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and enter upon the applicable Facility for the purpose of taking all such action as may be reasonably necessary. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary and incidental costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the performance of any such act by it, together with interest at the Agreed Rate from the date of the making of such payment or the incurring of such costs and expenses, shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord upon Landlord’s written demand therefor.
13.2.4    No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. Any notice or cure period provided herein shall run concurrently with any provided by applicable law.
13.2.5    If Landlord initiates judicial proceedings or if this Lease is terminated by Landlord pursuant to this Article XIII, Tenant waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) any right of redemption, re-entry, or repossession; and (b) the benefit of any laws now or hereafter in force exempting property from liability for rent or for debt.
Article XIV

14.1    Surrender. On the Expiration Date or earlier termination or cancellation of this Lease (or the earlier dispossession of Tenant from any Facility), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord or Landlord’s designee (a) possession of each Facility in a neat and clean condition, with each Facility being fully operational as of such date and in compliance with all Authorizations, and (b) all business records (other than corporate financial records or proprietary materials), data, patient and resident records, and patient and resident trust accounts, which may be necessary, desirable or advisable for the operation of each Facility for its Primary Intended Use. Tenant shall have no obligation to perform any Alterations necessitated by, or imposed in connection with, a change of ownership inspection survey for the transfer of operation of such Facility to Landlord or Landlord’s designee unless such Alterations were previously required hereunder or by the applicable licensing authorities to be undertaken by Tenant prior to the Expiration Date (or earlier termination date or cancellation of this Lease or earlier dispossession of Tenant from any Facility) and Tenant failed to do so. From and after the Expiration Date or an earlier dispossession of Tenant not resulting from an Event of Default, Landlord and Landlord’s designee shall allow Tenant and its agents and representatives to have reasonable access to (upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours), and to make copies of, the business records (other than corporate financial records or proprietary materials), data, patient and resident records, and patient and resident trust accounts of the Facilities relating to the period of occupancy by Tenant, to the extent reasonably necessary to enable Tenant to among other things investigate and defend resident, employee or other claims, to file or defend cost reports and tax returns, to complete/revise, as needed, any patient assessments which may be required for Tenant to seek reimbursement for services rendered during its occupancy of the Facilities, to verify accounts receivable collections due Tenant, and to enable Tenant to complete post termination, accounting, reconciliation and closing procedures.
14.2    Transition.
14.2.1    In connection with the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease with respect to any Facility, or the earlier dispossession of Tenant from any Facility, Landlord shall have the right to require an Operational Transfer with respect to such Facility by delivery to Tenant of a Transition Notice (as defined below). As used in this Lease, “Operational Transfer” shall mean the transfer and transition, practically and legally, of the day-to-day operations of a Facility for the Primary Intended Use of such Facility to Landlord and/or Landlord’s designee without interruption of the business activities therein, regulatory or otherwise. Landlord may exercise its right to require an Operational Transfer by delivering written notice to Tenant of Landlord’s election to require an Operational Transfer (a “Transition Notice”) at any time in connection with the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, or the earlier dispossession of Tenant from any Facility.

In connection therewith, Tenant shall transfer, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to Landlord or Landlord’s designee all contracts, including contracts with Governmental Authorities, which may be necessary, desirable or advisable for the operation of each Facility for its Primary Intended Use. Subject to all applicable Legal Requirements, Tenant hereby assigns, effective upon the Expiration Date or earlier termination or cancellation of this Lease (or the earlier dispossession of Tenant from any Facility), all rights to operate the Facility to Landlord or its designee, including all required Authorizations, to the extent assignable in accordance with Legal Requirements, and all rights to apply for or otherwise obtain them; provided that Tenant’s Medicaid Provider Agreements and provider numbers shall remain the sole and exclusive property of Tenant and shall not be assigned. Landlord’s designees shall be responsible for obtaining all new Medicaid Provider Agreements, Medicaid provider numbers and/or Medicaid certifications as may be necessary for the continued operation of the Facilities. In furtherance of the foregoing, Tenant agrees to enter into a commercially reasonable operations transfer agreement with Landlord or Landlord’s designee, which agreement shall provide, inter alia, for the proration of operational revenues and liabilities based on when Landlord or its designee actually takes possession of the applicable Facility or Facilities.
14.2.3    To the extent permissible under the Legal Requirements, for the period commencing on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, or the earlier dispossession of Tenant from any Facility, and ending on the earlier to occur of (i) the date designated by Landlord following Landlord’s or its designee’s receipt of all required Authorizations that Landlord or its designee will assume the operation of the Facility or Facilities, as specified in a written notice from Landlord to Tenant given not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date of such assumption of operations, or (ii) the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the applicable expiration, termination or dispossession date, Tenant agrees to (or will cause its Manager to agree to) enter into reasonable and customary interim sublease agreements an management agreements as may be necessary to effect a transfer of the operations of the Facility or Facilities for their Primary Intended Use prior to the time that Landlord or its designee, as applicable, holds all Authorizations from all applicable Governmental Authorities necessary to so operate such Facility or Facilities, and Tenant shall remain as licensee and participating provider in any payment programs with Governmental Payors or third party payors in which a Facility participates until such time as Landlord or its designee has received all Authorizations necessary to operate any Facility. Any such management agreement with Landlord or its designee, shall be on such customary and reasonable terms as Landlord, or its designee, shall request (which shall include an agreement to pay a management fee of five per cent (5%) of gross operating receipts and to reimburse Manager for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses and reasonable and administrative costs). Landlord, or its designee, shall reimburse Manager for any reasonable operating deficits of the Facility that Manager may be required to fund out-of-pocket on account of operating losses and expenses of the Facility incurred by Manager with respect to such period. Any such reimbursement shall be due from Landlord, or its designee, to Manager within thirty (30) days after written request by Manager, provided that Manager shall furnish such documentation of such operating deficits, losses and expenses as Landlord, or its designee, may reasonably request. For purposes of determining the amount of any operating deficits, or operating losses and expenses, incurred by Manager with respect to such period, Landlord and Tenant agree that there shall be included therein, without limitation, (a) Rent, which shall continue to be due and payable at the same rate as is in effect prior to the applicable expiration, termination or dispossession date, and (ii) any increase in employee severance, and all costs and liabilities, that may be incurred by Manager in connection with Manager’s employees’ by virtue of any delayed compliance with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, or any similar State law, due to Tenant’s cooperation and other obligations under this Section 14.2.3.
14.2.4    Notwithstanding anything in this Lease which may be construed to the contrary, if (i) Landlord delivers a Transition Notice as to a particular Facility or Facilities, (ii) the Term expires prior to the delivery of a Transition Notice but Landlord has not delivered a Closure Notice, or (iii) this Lease is terminated as a result of an Event of Default and Landlord has not delivered a Closure Notice, then in all such cases Tenant shall thereafter continue to operate the Facility or Facilities in accordance with all of the requirements of this Lease until the earliest to occur of the following: (a) the date on which a successor operator assumes operation of such Facility, (b) the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the Expiration Date, or (c) the date on which such Facility is closed by Tenant in accordance with and pursuant to the requirements of this Lease and in connection with a Closure Notice delivered by Landlord.
14.2.5    If Tenant operates one or more Facilities after the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease (either pursuant to Landlord’s request or pursuant to Section 14.2.4, then, from and after the expiration of this Lease and until the earliest to occur of the dates described in Section 14.2.4 (the “Reimbursement Period”), (a) Landlord shall provide Tenant with an operating budget, (b) Landlord shall include in the aforesaid operating budget, and Tenant shall continue to pay during the Reimbursement Period, all Rent that would have been owing under this Lease if this Lease had not expired (equitably prorated if Tenant operates less than all of the Facilities), and (c) Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for any operating deficits that Tenant may be required to fund out-of-pocket on account of operating losses and expenses incurred by Tenant by reason of, or arising out of compliance with, such budget with respect to the Reimbursement Period. Any such reimbursement shall be due from Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) days after request by Tenant, provided that Tenant shall furnish such documentation of any operating deficits, losses and expenses as Landlord may reasonably request.
14.2.6    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant shall not, prior to delivery of a Closure Notice by Landlord to Tenant, commence to wind up and terminate the operations of any Facility or relocate the patients or occupants of any Facility to any other health care facility (a “Facility Termination”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord has not delivered a Closure Notice or a Transition Notice to Tenant prior to the day that is one hundred twenty (120) days following the Expiration Date, then Tenant may commence the Facility Termination as to such Facility or Facilities and, upon the closure of such Facility or Facilities in accordance with this Lease and all applicable Legal Requirements, Tenant shall vacate such Facility or Facilities and surrender possession thereof to Landlord in accordance with all applicable requirements of this Lease. If, prior to the day that is one hundred twenty (120) days following the Expiration Date, Landlord delivers a Transition Notice to Tenant, Tenant shall not commence or otherwise engage in a Facility Termination with respect to the applicable Facility or Facilities. If Landlord delivers a Closure Notice and elects to institute a Facility Termination, Tenant shall, upon the prior written approval of Landlord, take all commercially reasonable steps necessary, in compliance with all Legal Requirements and Authorizations, to timely effectuate the same, all at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.
14.2.7    The terms of this Section 14.2 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.
14.3    Tenant Personal Property. Provided that no Event of Default then exists, in connection with the surrender of the Premises, Tenant may upon at least five (5) Business Days prior notice to Landlord remove from the Premises in a workmanlike manner all Tenant Personal Property, leaving the Premises in good and presentable condition and appearance, including repairing any damage caused by such removal; provided that Landlord shall have the right and option to purchase for itself or its designee the Tenant Personal Property (other than the Excluded Tenant Personal Property) for its then net book value during such five (5) Business Day notice period, in which case Tenant shall so convey the Tenant Personal Property to Landlord or its designee by executing a bill of sale in a form reasonably required by Landlord. If there is any Event of Default then existing, Tenant will not remove any Tenant Personal Property from the Premises and instead will, on demand from Landlord, convey it (other than the Excluded Tenant Personal Property) to Landlord or its designee for no additional consideration by executing a bill of sale in a form reasonably required by Landlord. Title to any Tenant Personal Property which is not removed by Tenant as permitted above upon the expiration of the Term shall, at Landlord’s election, vest in Landlord or its designee; provided, however, that Landlord may remove and store or dispose at Tenant’s expense any or all of such Tenant Personal Property which is not so removed by Tenant without obligation or accounting to Tenant.
14.4    Facility Trade Name. If this Lease is terminated by reason of an Event of Default or Landlord exercises its option to purchase or is otherwise entitled to retain the Tenant Personal Property pursuant to Section 14.3 above, Landlord or its designee shall be permitted to use the name under which each Facility has done business during the Term in connection with the continued operation of such Facility for its Primary Intended Use, but for no other use and not in connection with any other property or facility, provided that Landlord shall have no right to retain or use the name “Diversicare” or any derivative thereof.
14.5    Holding Over. Except as provided in Sections 14.2.5 and 14.2.6, if Tenant shall for any reason remain in possession of any Facility after the Expiration Date, such possession shall be a month-to-month tenancy during which time Tenant shall pay as rental on the first (1st) Business Day of each month one and one-half (1½) times the total of the monthly Base Rent payable with respect to the last Lease Year, plus all Additional Rent accruing during the month and all other sums, if any, payable by Tenant pursuant to this Lease. Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express or implied, of Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the Expiration Date, nor shall anything contained herein be deemed to limit Landlord’s remedies.
Article XV
INDEMNIFICATION
In addition to the other indemnities contained in this Lease, and notwithstanding the existence of any insurance carried by or for the benefit of Landlord or Tenant, and without regard to the policy limits of any such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify, save harmless and defend Landlord and the Landlord Indemnified Parties from and against all Losses imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Parties by reason of: (a) any accident, injury to or death of Persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about any Facility during the Term; (b) any use, misuse, non-use, condition, maintenance or repair of any Facility by Tenant; (c) any failure on the part of Tenant to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Lease or the breach of any representation or warranty made by Tenant herein; and (d) any claim for malpractice, negligence or misconduct committed by any Person on or working from any Facility during the Term. Any amounts which become payable by Tenant under this Article XV shall be paid within ten (10) days after demand by Landlord, and if not timely paid, shall bear interest at the Agreed Rate from the date of such demand until paid. Tenant, at its expense, shall contest, resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Parties with counsel acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion and shall not, under any circumstances, compromise or otherwise dispose of any suit, action or proceeding without obtaining Landlord’s written consent. Landlord, at its election and sole cost and expense, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the defense of any claim for which Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Parties are indemnified hereunder. If Tenant does not act promptly and completely to satisfy its indemnification obligations hereunder, Landlord may resist and defend any such claims or causes of action against Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Party at Tenant’s sole cost. The terms of this Article XV shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. For purposes of this Article XV, any acts or omissions of Tenant, or by employees, agents, assignees, contractors, subcontractors or others acting for or on behalf of Tenant (whether or not they are negligent, intentional, willful or unlawful), shall be strictly attributable to Tenant. Nothing herein shall be construed as indemnifying, saving harmless and defending, or protecting, and Tenant shall not be required to protect, indemnify, save harmless or defend, Landlord or Landlord Indemnified Parties from any Losses imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Landlord or the Landlord Indemnified Parties to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Parties.
Article XVI
LANDLORD’S FINANCING
16.1    Grant Lien. Without the consent of Tenant, Landlord may from time to time, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause to exist any Facility Mortgage upon any Facility or interest therein. This Lease is and at all times shall be subject and subordinate to any such Facility Mortgage which may now or hereafter affect any Facility or interest therein and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, restatements and extensions thereof or any parts or portions thereof; provided, however, so long as no Event of Default has occurred, no Facility Mortgagee shall have the right to disturb Tenant’s leasehold interest or possession of any Facility or interfere with any other rights of Tenant accorded by the terms of this Lease. This provision shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required to give it full force and effect; provided, however, that in confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall execute promptly any certificate or document that Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee may request for such purposes so long as the same contains commercially reasonable non-disturbance and attornment provisions.
16.2    Attornment. If Landlord’s interest in any Facility or interest therein is sold, conveyed or terminated upon the exercise of any remedy provided for in any Facility Mortgage Documents (or in lieu of such exercise), or otherwise by operation of law: (a) at the request and option of the new owner or superior lessor, as the case may be, Tenant shall attorn to and recognize the new owner or superior lessor as Tenant’s “landlord” under this Lease or enter into a new lease substantially in the form of this Lease with the new owner or superior lessor, and Tenant shall take such actions to confirm the foregoing within ten (10) days after request; and (b) the new owner or superior lessor shall not be (i) liable for any act or omission of Landlord under this Lease occurring prior to such sale, conveyance or termination; (ii) subject to any offset, abatement or reduction of rent because of any default of Landlord under this Lease occurring prior to such sale, conveyance or termination; (iii) bound by any previous modification or amendment to this Lease or any previous prepayment of more than one month’s rent, unless such modification, amendment or prepayment shall have been approved in writing by such Facility Mortgagee or, in the case of such prepayment, such prepayment of rent has actually been delivered to such new owner or superior lessor; or (iv) liable for any security deposit or other collateral deposited or delivered to Landlord pursuant to this Lease unless such security deposit or other collateral has actually been delivered to such new owner or superior lessor.
16.3    Cooperation; Modifications. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant hereby agrees that in connection with obtaining any Facility Mortgage for any Facility or interest therein, including, without limitation, where the Facility Mortgagee is an Agency Lender, Tenant shall: (i) execute and deliver to such Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee (on the form required by such Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee) any tenant regulatory agreements (including, without limitation, the form of regulatory agreement typically required by Agency Lenders), subordination agreements (including, without limitation, the form of subordination, assignment and security agreement typically required by Agency Lenders), or other similar agreements customarily required by Agency Lenders and other Facility Mortgagees in connection with a mortgage relating to a skilled nursing facility or assisted living facility, (ii) modify this Lease as necessary to incorporate the provisions and requirements generally imposed by an Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee in connection with a facility lease relating to a skilled nursing facility or assisted living facility encumbered with a Facility Mortgage by an Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee, including, without limitation, requirements that: (a) Tenant comply with the operational requirements set forth in the applicable Facility Mortgage Documents (including, without limitation, the obligations under any regulatory agreement or subordination agreement with an Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee), and (b) in lieu of any duplicative impound and/or reserve obligations hereunder, obligate Tenant to fund reserves with the Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee for taxes, insurance and/or capital improvement and repair obligations as may be required by said Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee and (iii) provide, within ten (10) days of request therefor from Landlord, such reasonable documents and materials requested by any Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee, including without limitation, insurance certificates. In connection with the foregoing, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.6, in the event that any Facility Mortgagee requires that reserves for capital improvements and repairs be impounded with Facility Mortgagee in advance of the expenditure thereof, Tenant agrees to deliver such impound deposits in advance monthly deposits for impounding directly with Facility Mortgagee; provided, however, that (1) the aggregate annual amount of such impound requirements shall not exceed the product of (x) the Required Per Bed Annual Capital Expenditures Amount, times (y) the weighted average of the number of licensed beds in all Facilities during the applicable Lease Year, and (2) any amounts which Tenant is required to fund into a Facility Mortgage Repair Reserve Account to satisfy any repair or replacement reserve requirements imposed by a Facility Mortgagee shall be credited on a dollar for dollar basis against the mandatory expenditure obligations of Tenant for such applicable Facilities under Section 7.6. During the Term, and provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, Tenant shall, subject to the terms and conditions of such Facility Mortgage Repair Reserve Account and the requirements of the applicable Facility Mortgagee thereunder, have access to and the right to apply or use (including for reimbursement) all monies held in each such Facility Mortgage Repair Reserve Account for the purposes and subject to the limitations for which such Facility Mortgage Repair Reserve Account is maintained, and Landlord agrees to reasonably cooperate with Tenant in connection therewith. Landlord hereby acknowledges that funds deposited by Tenant in any Facility Mortgage Repair Reserve Account are the property of Tenant and, provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, Landlord is obligated to return the portion of such funds not previously released to Tenant within sixty (60) days following the earlier of (I) the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease with respect to the applicable Facilities or (II) the maturity or earlier prepayment of the applicable Facility Mortgage. In the event any Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee requires, as a condition to making a Facility Mortgage, an intercreditor agreement with any receivables lender of Tenant, Tenant shall enter into any such intercreditor agreement and shall take all commercially reasonable efforts to cause said receivables lender to enter into such intercreditor agreement with said Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee on terms reasonably acceptable to said Agency Lender or other Facility Mortgagee and such receivables lender of Tenant.
16.4    Compliance with Facility Mortgage Documents. Tenant acknowledges that any Facility Mortgage Documents executed by Landlord or any Affiliate of Landlord may impose certain obligations on the “borrower” or other counterparty thereunder to comply with or cause the operator and/or lessee of any Facility to comply with all representations, covenants and warranties contained therein relating to such Facility and the operator and/or lessee of such Facility, including, covenants relating to (a) the maintenance and repair of such Facility; (b) maintenance and submission of financial records and accounts of the operation of such Facility and related financial and other information regarding the operator and/or lessee of such Facility and such Facility itself; (c) the procurement of insurance policies with respect to such Facility; (d) periodic inspection and access rights in favor of the Facility Mortgagee; and (e) without limiting the foregoing, compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements relating to such Facility and the operations thereof. For so long as any Facility Mortgages encumber any Facility or interest therein, Tenant covenants and agrees, at its sole cost and expense and for the express benefit of Landlord, to operate such Facility in strict compliance with the terms and conditions of the Facility Mortgage Documents (other than payment of any indebtedness evidenced or secured thereby) and to timely perform all of the obligations of Landlord relating thereto, or to the extent that any of such duties and obligations may not properly be performed by Tenant, Tenant shall cooperate with and assist Landlord in the performance thereof (other than payment of any indebtedness evidenced or secured thereby); provided, however, that (i) if the time for performance of any act required of Tenant by the terms of a Facility Mortgage is shorter than the time allowed by this Lease for performance of such act by Tenant, then Tenant shall perform such act within the time limits specified in this Lease and (ii) Tenant shall not be required to comply with the terms, covenants and conditions of any Facility Mortgage that (a) increase Tenant’s monetary obligations under this Lease, (b) materially increase Tenant’s non-monetary obligations under this Lease, or (c) materially diminish the rights of Tenant under this Lease. If any new Facility Mortgage Documents to be executed by Landlord or any Affiliate of Landlord would impose on Tenant any obligations under this Section 16.4, Landlord shall provide copies of the same to Tenant for informational purposes (but not for Tenant’s approval) prior to the execution and delivery thereof by Landlord or any Affiliate of Landlord.
Article XVII
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
17.1    Prohibition. Without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be withheld or conditioned in its sole and absolute discretion, Tenant shall not suffer or permit any Transfer (including, without limitation, a Transfer of this Lease or any interest herein) other than a Transfer that is expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of this Lease. Any such purported Transfer without Landlord’s prior written consent (each an “Unapproved Transfer”) shall be void and shall, at Landlord’s sole option, constitute an Event of Default giving rise to Landlord’s right, among other things, to terminate this Lease. If Landlord elects to waive its right to terminate this Lease as a result of any such Unapproved Transfer, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect; provided, however, that as of the date of such Unapproved Transfer, the Base Rent shall be increased by five percent (5%). Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to a subordination agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, Landlord hereby consents to each Tenant entering into a written management agreement with Diversicare Management Services, Co., an Affiliate of Tenant (“Manager”), in form presented to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date, to provide management services to such Tenant with respect to each Facility (the “Management Agreement”). The approval by Landlord of the Management Agreement in the form existing prior to the Commencement Date shall not relieve Tenant’s compliance with the terms and provisions of this Lease nor shall said approval be considered a waiver of Tenant’s obligation to obtain Landlord's prior written consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the Management Agreement or any further management arrangements for the Premises as required by this Article XVII.
17.2    Landlord Consent. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, such Transfer shall not be effective and valid unless and until the applicable transferee executes and delivers to Landlord any and all documentation reasonably required by Landlord. Any consent by Landlord to a particular Transfer shall not constitute consent or approval of any subsequent Transfer, and Landlord’s written consent shall be required in all such instances. Except and unless Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, specifically agrees to do so in writing when giving its consent, no consent by Landlord to any Transfer shall be deemed to release Tenant from its obligations hereunder and Tenant shall remain fully liable for payment and performance of all obligations under this Lease. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in connection with any sublease arrangement that has been approved by Landlord, as a condition precedent to any such approval, any such sublease agreement shall include provisions required by Landlord pertaining to protecting its status as a real estate investment trust.
17.3    Transfers to Affiliates. Notwithstanding Section 17.1 to the contrary, but subject to the rights of any Facility Mortgagee, Tenant may, without Landlord’s prior written consent, assign this Lease or sublease any Facility to a Person wholly owned and Controlled by Tenant or any Guarantor if all of the following are first satisfied: (a) such assignee fully assumes Tenant’s obligations hereunder; (b) Tenant remains fully liable hereunder and Guarantor remains fully liable under the Guaranty; (c) the use of such Facility remains unchanged; (d) Landlord in its reasonable discretion shall have approved the form and content of all documents for such assignment or sublease and received an executed counterpart thereof; (e) Tenant delivers evidence to Landlord that such assignment or subletting is permissible under all applicable Authorizations or that all necessary consents have been obtained to consummate such assignment or subletting; and (f) Tenant and/or such assignee executes and delivers such other documents as may be reasonably required by Landlord to effectuate the assignment and continue the security interests and other rights of Landlord pursuant to this Lease or any other documents executed in connection herewith.
17.4    Permitted Occupancy Agreements. Notwithstanding Section 17.1 to the contrary, Tenant may enter into (i)  occupancy agreements with residents of each Facility without the prior written consent of Landlord provided that (a) the agreement does not provide for life care services; (b) the agreement does not contain any type of rate lock provision or rate guaranty for more than one calendar year; (c) the agreement does not provide for any rent reduction or waiver other than for an introductory period not to exceed thirty (30) days; (d) Tenant may not collect rent for more than one month in advance other than one month of rent collected as security for the performance of the resident’s obligations to Tenant, which amount is held in a separate escrow account for the benefit of such resident; and (e) all residents of each Facility are accurately shown in accounting records for such Facility, and (ii) commercial occupancy agreements with any Person for up to an aggregate of five percent (5%) of the square footage of any Facility in the normal course of the Primary Intended Use of the Facility for the provision of customary ancillary services to its residents provided that such Person is duly licensed and possessed of all Authorizations necessary for the conduct of its activities at the Facility in accordance with all Legal Requirements. Without the prior written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall not materially change the form of resident occupancy agreement that was submitted to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date; provided, however, no consent will be required for changes required by applicable law, including applicable licensure laws, but all changes to the form of resident occupancy agreement will be provided to Landlord as and when such changes are made.
17.5    Costs. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable costs and expenses incurred in conjunction with the processing and documentation of any assignment, master subletting or management arrangement, including reasonable attorneys’ or other consultants’ fees whether or not such assignment, master sublease or management agreement is ultimately consummated or executed.
17.6    UPL Program Sublease. Notwithstanding Section 17.1 to the contrary, but subject to the rights of any Facility Mortgagee, and subject to the REIT protection provisions of Article XXII, Tenant may, if available under the applicable law of the Situs State in which a Facility is located, with Lessor’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s commercially reasonable discretion, sublease a Facility to a qualified state, county or local hospital facility for participation in the Medicaid Upper Payment Limits Program and equivalent or similar programs in the Situs State (a “UPL Program”), if all of the following are first satisfied: (a) such hospital has sufficient operating experience and history and sufficient assets and income, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, to bear the financial responsibilities of Tenant to lease and operate the Facility; (b) such hospital fully assumes Tenant’s obligations hereunder with respect to such Facility; (c) Tenant remains fully liable hereunder and Guarantor remains fully liable under the Guaranty; (d) the use of the Facility remains unchanged; and (e) Landlord in its reasonable discretion shall have approved the form and content of all documents entered into in connection with such sublease and received executed counterparts thereof. For purposes of the foregoing, Landlord shall not be deemed or construed to have unreasonably withheld its consent by virtue of the fact that Landlord’s consent is conditioned upon the requirement that a portion of the excess revenues generated by Tenant in connection with any such UPL Program be (i) shared with Landlord as Additional Rent payable under the terms of this Lease, or (ii) applied to make upgrades and improvements to the applicable Facility that have the effect of maintaining or improving its competitive position in its respective marketplace.
Article XVIII
CERTAIN RIGHTS OF LANDLORD
18.1    Right of Entry. Landlord and its representatives may enter on any Facility at any reasonable time after reasonable notice to Tenant to inspect such Facility for compliance to this Lease, to exhibit such Facility for sale, lease or mortgaging, or for any other reason; provided, however, that no such notice shall be required in the event of an emergency, upon an Event of Default or to post notices of non-responsibility under any mechanic’s or materialman’s lien law. Provided no Event of Default then exists and is continuing, Tenant shall have a right to have a representative present during such entry. No such entry shall unreasonably interfere with residents, patients, patient care or the operations of such Facility.
18.2    Conveyance by Landlord. If Landlord or any successor owner of any Facility shall convey such Facility other than as security for a debt, Landlord or such successor owner, as the case may be, shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations of the Landlord under this Lease arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer and, subject to Section 16.2, all such future liabilities and obligations shall thereupon be binding upon the new owner.
18.3    Granting of Easements, etc. Landlord may, from time to time, with respect to each Facility: (a) grant easements, covenants and restrictions, and other rights in the nature of easements, covenants and restrictions, (b) release existing easements, covenants and restrictions, or other rights in the nature of easements, covenants or restrictions, that are for the benefit of such Facility, (c) dedicate or transfer unimproved portions of such Facility for road, highway or other public purposes, (d) execute petitions to have such Facility annexed to any municipal corporation or utility district, (e) execute amendments to any easements, covenants and restrictions affecting such Facility and (f) execute and deliver to any Person any instrument appropriate to confirm or effect such grants, releases, dedications and transfers (to the extent of its interests in such Facility) without the necessity of obtaining Tenant’s consent provided that such easement or other instrument or action contemplated by this Section 18.3 does not unreasonably interfere with or adversely affect Tenant’s operations at such Facility. Prior to the execution, delivery or taking of any such easement, covenant or restriction affecting Tenant’s occupancy or use of any Facility, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a description of the easement, covenant or restriction and a survey or reasonably accurate drawing showing its location or impact on the affected Facility and such other information as Tenant may reasonably request to determine its impact on the affected Facility.
18.4    Excess Beds. For the avoidance of doubt, Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that all of the bed rights (whether related to a bed that is in service or not at any given time) associated with the operating licenses and other Authorizations for each Facility are owned by, and are the property of, Landlord and are appurtenant to the applicable Facility where located, notwithstanding that the rights to operate such beds may be held in Tenant’s name under Tenant’s Authorizations to operate a Facility. Throughout the Term (including any Extension Term), Tenant shall maintain and preserve all of the bed rights associated with the Authorizations for each Facility, including without limitation (i) bed rights that are “banked,” suspended or on similar status, and (ii) rights to currently or historically unused, non-operational or excess beds. Tenant shall not commit any act or omission that would reasonably be expected to result in suspension, revocation, decertification or other material limitation, or except in connection with a Transfer permitted pursuant to Article XVII the sale or transfer, of all or any portion of the bed rights associated with the operating licenses and other Authorizations for each Facility.
Article XIX
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
19.1    Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not allow any Hazardous Materials to be located in, on, under or about any Facility or incorporated in any Facility during the Term; provided, however, that Hazardous Materials may be brought, kept, used or disposed of in, on or about a Facility in quantities and for purposes similar to those brought, kept, used or disposed of in, on or about similar facilities used for purposes similar to such Facility’s Primary Intended Use and which are brought, kept, used and disposed of in strict compliance with all Hazardous Materials Laws. This Section 19.1 shall not apply to any Hazardous Materials in, on, under, about or incorporated in any Facility prior to the Commencement Date.
19.2    Notices. Tenant shall immediately advise Landlord in writing of (a) any Environmental Activities in violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws; (b) any Hazardous Materials Claims against Tenant or any Facility; (c) any remedial action taken by Tenant in response to any Hazardous Materials Claims or any Hazardous Materials on, under or about any Facility in violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws; (d) Tenant’s discovery of any occurrence or condition on or in the vicinity of any Facility that materially increase the risk that such Facility will be exposed to Hazardous Materials; and (e) all communications to or from Tenant, any governmental authority or any other Person relating to Hazardous Materials Laws or Hazardous Materials Claims with respect to any Facility, including copies thereof.
19.3    Remediation. If Tenant becomes aware of a violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws relating to any Hazardous Materials in, on, under or about any Facility, or if Tenant, Landlord or any Facility becomes subject to any order of any federal, state or local agency to repair, close, detoxify, decontaminate or otherwise remediate any Facility, Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of such event. To the extent that any such violation or order results from a breach of Tenant’s obligations under Section 19.1, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall cure any such violation or effect such repair, closure, detoxification, decontamination or other remediation in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements and subject to Landlord’s prior approval as to scope, process, content and standard for completion. If Tenant fails to implement and diligently pursue any such cure, repair, closure, detoxification, decontamination or other remediation, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to carry out such action and to recover from Tenant all of Landlord’s costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith. Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord, at no out-of-pocket expense to Tenant, to effect any repair, closure, detoxification, decontamination or other remediation that is not the financial obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Section 19.3.
19.4    Indemnity. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect, save, hold harmless and reimburse Landlord for, from and against any and all Losses (whether or not arising out of third-party claims and regardless of whether liability without fault is imposed, or sought to be imposed, on Landlord) incurred in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or incident to, directly or indirectly, during (but not before or after) the Term, (a) Environmental Activities, including the effects of such Environmental Activities on any Person or property within or outside the boundaries of the Land of any Facility, (b) the presence of any Hazardous Materials in, on, under or about any Facility, and (c) the violation of any Hazardous Material Laws. For purposes hereof, Losses include interest, costs of response, removal, remedial action, containment, cleanup, investigation, design, engineering and construction, damages (including actual, consequential and punitive damages) for personal injuries and for injury to, destruction of or loss of property or natural resources, relocation or replacement costs, penalties, fines, charges or expenses, attorney’s fees, expert fees, consultation fees and court costs, and all amounts paid in investigating, defending or settling any of the foregoing. This Section 19.4 shall not apply to any Hazardous Materials in, on, under, about or incorporated in any Facility prior to the Commencement Date.
19.5    Environmental Inspections. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, during normal business hours and upon not less than five (5) days written notice to Tenant, except in the case of an emergency in which event no notice shall be required, to conduct an inspection of any Facility to determine Tenant’s compliance with this Article XIX. Such inspection may include such testing, sampling and analyses as Landlord deems reasonably necessary and may be performed by experts retained by Landlord. All costs and expenses incurred by Landlord under this 19.5 shall be paid on demand by Tenant; provided, however, absent reasonable grounds to suspect Tenant’s breach of its obligations under this Article XIX, Tenant shall not be required to pay for more than one (1) such inspection in any one (1) year period with respect to each Facility. The obligations set forth in this Article XIX shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
Article XX
LANDLORD’S SECURITY INTEREST
20.1    Grant of Security Interest. For the purpose of securing the payment and performance obligations of Tenant hereunder, Tenant, as debtor, hereby grants to Landlord, as secured party, a security interest in and an express contractual lien upon, all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to the Property Collateral, Accounts Collateral and Authorization Collateral (collectively, the “Lease Collateral”); provided that (i) to the extent the Legal Requirements prohibit the assignment or granting of a security interest or lien in any of the Authorization Collateral, then such Authorization Collateral so restricted by applicable law shall be deemed not to be included as Lease Collateral and (ii) the Lease Collateral shall not include the Excluded Tenant Personal Property. This Lease constitutes a security agreement covering all such Lease Collateral. This security interest and agreement shall survive the termination of this Lease resulting from an Event of Default. Tenant shall pay all filing and reasonable record search fees and other costs for such additional security agreements, financing statements, fixture filings and other documents as Landlord may reasonably require to perfect or continue the perfection of its security interest. Additionally, Tenant shall promptly execute such other separate security agreements with respect to the Lease Collateral as Landlord may request from time to time to further evidence the security interest in the Lease Collateral created by this Lease.
20.2    Accounts Receivable Financing. With Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the security interests and liens granted to Landlord in the Accounts Collateral and the Authorization Collateral (solely to the extent necessary for billing and collecting any Accounts Collateral and as provided under the applicable intercreditor agreement) may be subordinated to any first priority security interest granted in connection with accounts receivable financing secured by Tenant so long as: (a) Tenant’s accounts receivable lenders execute an intercreditor agreement with Landlord in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and (b) no Event of Default exists hereunder.
20.3    Certain Changes. In no way waiving or modifying the provisions of Article XVII above, Tenant shall give Landlord at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of any change in Tenant’s principal place of business, name, identity, jurisdiction of organization or corporate structure.

Article XXII
REIT RESTRICTIONS
22.1    Characterization of Rents. The parties hereto intend that Rent and other amounts paid by Tenant hereunder will qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto and this Agreement shall be interpreted consistent with this intent
22.2    General REIT Provisions. Tenant understands that, in order for Landlord, or any Affiliate of Landlord that is a real estate investment trust, to qualify as a real estate investment trust, certain requirements must be satisfied, including the provisions of Section 856 of the Code. Accordingly, Tenant agrees, and agrees to cause its Affiliates, permitted subtenants, if any, and any other parties subject to its control by ownership or contract, to reasonably cooperate with Landlord to ensure that such requirements are satisfied, including providing Landlord or any of its Affiliates with information about the ownership of Tenant and its Affiliates. Tenant agrees, and agrees to cause its Affiliates, upon request by Landlord or any of its Affiliates, to take all action reasonably necessary to ensure compliance with such requirements.
22.3    Prohibited Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tenant shall not (a) sublet, assign or enter into a management arrangement for any Facility on any basis such that the rental or other amounts to be paid by the subtenant, assignee or manager thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on either (x) the income or profits derived by the business activities of the subtenant, assignee or manager or (y) any other formula such that any portion of any amount received by Landlord would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto; (b) furnish or render any services to the subtenant, assignee or manager or manage or operate any Facility so subleased, assigned or managed; (c) sublet, assign or enter into a management arrangement for any Facility to any Person (other than a taxable REIT subsidiary of Landlord) in which Tenant or Landlord owns an interest, directly or indirectly (by applying constructive ownership rules set forth in Section 856(d)(5) of the Code); or (d) sublet, assign or enter into a management arrangement for any Facility in any other manner which could cause any portion of the amounts received by Landlord pursuant to this Lease or any sublease to fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto, or which could cause any other income of Landlord to fail to qualify as income described in Section 856(c)(2) of the Code. The requirements of this Section 22.3 shall likewise apply to any further subleasing by any subtenant.
22.4    Personal Property REIT Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon request of Landlord, Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord in good faith and provide such documentation and/or information as may be in Tenant’s possession or under Tenant’s control and otherwise readily available to Tenant regarding the valuation of the Premises to assist Landlord in its determination that Rent allocable for purposes of Section 856 of the Code to the Landlord Personal Property at the beginning and end of a calendar year does not exceed 15% of the total Rent due hereunder (the “Personal Property REIT Requirement”). Tenant shall take such reasonable action as may be requested by Landlord from time to time to ensure compliance with the Personal Property REIT Requirement as long as such compliance does not (a) increase Tenant’s monetary obligations under this Lease, (b) materially and adversely increase Tenant’s non-monetary obligations under this Lease or (c) materially diminish Tenant’s rights under this Lease. Accordingly, if requested by Landlord and at Landlord’s expense, Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord as may be necessary from time to time to more specifically identify and/or value the Landlord Personal Property in connection with the compliance with the Personal Property REIT Requirement.

EXHIBIT E

FAIR MARKET RENTAL
If it becomes necessary to determine the Fair Market Rental of the Premises or any individual Facility for any purpose under this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall first attempt to agree on such Fair Market Rental, as the case may be. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to so agree within a reasonable period of time not to exceed thirty (30) days, then Landlord and Tenant shall have twenty (20) days to attempt to agree upon a single Appraiser to make such determination. If the parties so agree upon a single Appraiser, such Appraiser shall, within forty-five (45) days of being engaged, determine the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, as of the relevant date (giving effect to the impact, if any, of inflation from the date of its decision to the relevant date), and such determination shall be final and binding upon the parties.
If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon a single Appraiser within such twenty (20) days, then each party shall have ten (10) days in which to provide the other with the name of a person selected to act as Appraiser on its behalf. Each such Appraiser shall, within forty-five (45) days of being engaged, determine the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, as of the relevant date (giving effect to the impact, if any, of inflation from the date of its decision to the relevant date). If the difference between the amounts so determined does not exceed ten percent (10%) of the lesser of such amounts, then the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, shall be the average of the amounts so determined, and such average shall be final and binding upon the parties. If the difference between the amounts so determined exceeds ten percent (10%) of the lesser of such amounts, then such two Appraisers shall have twenty (20) days to appoint a third Appraiser. If the first Appraisers fail to appoint a third Appraiser within such twenty (20) days, either Landlord or Tenant may apply to any court having jurisdiction to have such appointment made by such court. Such third Appraiser, shall, within forty-five (45) days of being selected or appointed, determine the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, as of the relevant date (giving effect to the impact, if any, of inflation from the date of its decision to the relevant date). The determination of the Appraiser which differs most in terms of dollar amount from the determinations of the other two Appraisers shall be excluded, and the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, shall be the average of the amounts of the two remaining determinations, and such average shall be final and binding upon the parties.
If either party fails to select an Appraiser within such ten (10) days or a selected Appraiser fails to make its determination within such forty-five (45) days, the Appraiser selected by the other party or the Appraiser that makes its determination with such forty-five (45) days, as applicable, shall alone determine the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, as of the relevant date (giving effect to the impact, if any, of inflation from the date of its decision to the relevant date) and such determination shall be final and binding upon the parties.
Landlord and Tenant shall each pay the fees and expenses of the Appraiser appointed by it and each shall pay one-half (½) of the fees and expenses of the third Appraiser.
For purposes of determining the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, the Premises or the applicable Facility, as applicable, shall be valued at its highest and best use which shall be presumed to be as a fully-permitted facility operated in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. In addition, the following specific matters shall be factored in or out, as appropriate, in determining the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be:
1.The negative value of (a) any deferred maintenance or other items of repair or replacement of the Premises or the applicable Facility, (b) any then current or prior licensure or certification violations and/or admissions holds and (c) any other breach or failure of Tenant to perform or observe its obligations hereunder shall not be taken into account; rather, the Premises or the applicable Facility, and every part thereof shall be deemed to be in the condition required by this Lease (i.e., in good order and repair and fully licensed) and Tenant shall at all times be deemed to have operated the same in compliance with and to have performed all obligations of the Tenant under this Lease.
2.The occupancy level of the Premises shall be deemed to be the average occupancy during the period commencing on that date which is eighteen (18) months prior to the date of the initial request for the determination of the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, and ending on the date which is six (6) months prior to the date of the initial request for the determination of the Fair Market Rental, as the case may be.
As used herein, “Appraiser” means an appraiser licensed or otherwise qualified to do business in the applicable Situs State and who has substantial experience in performing appraisals of facilities similar to the Premises and holds the Appraisal Institute’s MAI designation, or, if such organization no longer exists or certifies appraisers, such successor organization or such other organization as is approved by Landlord.
