FIVE STAR QUALITY CARE, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)

 

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation and Organization

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Five Star Quality Care, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared without audit.  Certain information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted.  We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  However, the accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.  In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.  Our operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.  For further discussion of our liquidity and capital resources see Item 2 of this quarterly report.

 

In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, we evaluated events that occurred through August 10, 2009, the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements, for potential recognition or disclosure.

 

We operate senior living communities, including independent living or congregate care communities, assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities, or SNFs.  As of June 30, 2009, we leased or owned and operated 207 senior living communities containing 22,027 living units, including 159 primarily independent and assisted living communities with 17,675 living units and 48 SNFs with 4,352 units.

 

Of our 159 primarily independent and assisted living communities, we:

 

·                                           leased 132 communities containing 15,499 living units from Senior Housing Properties Trust, or Senior Housing, our former parent;

 

·                                           leased four communities with 200 living units from Health Care Property Investors; and

 

·                                           owned 23 communities with 1,976 living units.

 

Of our 48 SNFs, we:

 

·                                           leased 46 facilities from Senior Housing with 4,081 units; and

 

·                                           owned two facilities with 271 units.

 

In aggregate, our 207 senior living communities included 6,233 independent living apartments, 9,622 assisted living units and 6,172 skilled nursing units.  Excluded from the preceding data are three senior living communities which we leased from Senior Housing, including two assisted living senior living communities containing 173 living units and one SNF containing 62 units, which have been classified as discontinued operations.

 

We also own and operate five institutional pharmacies and we operate two rehabilitation hospitals with 321 beds that we lease from Senior Housing.  Our two rehabilitation hospitals provide inpatient services at the two hospitals and three satellite locations.  In addition, we operate 14 outpatient clinics affiliated with these rehabilitation hospitals.

 

Note 2. New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 107-1 and Accounting Principles Board, or APB, 28-1, “ Interim Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments ”, or FSP 107-1, which extends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 107, “ Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments ”, to interim financial statements of

(unaudited)

 

publicly traded companies as defined in APB Opinion No. 28, “ Interim Financial Reporting ”. FSP 107-1 is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We have adopted FSP 107-1 effective April 1, 2009.

 

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 157-4, “ Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability has Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions that are Not Orderly ”, or FSP 157-4, which amends SFAS No. 157, “ Fair Value Measurements ” to provide additional guidance on estimating fair value when the volume and level of transaction activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased in relation to  normal market activity for the asset or liability. FSP 157-4 also provides additional guidance on circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly.  FSP 157-4 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We have evaluated the effect of the adoption of FSP 157-4 and have concluded it has no material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, “ Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments ”, or FSP 115-2, which amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt and equity securities. FSP 115-2 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009.  We have evaluated the effect of the adoption of FSP 115-2 and have concluded that it has no material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “ Subsequent Events ”, or SFAS No. 165.  SFAS No. 165 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  SFAS No. 165 is effective for interim and annual fiscal periods ending after June 15, 2009.  We have adopted SFAS No. 165 effective April 1, 2009.

 

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “ The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ”, or SFAS No. 168, or the Codification, and, in doing so, authorized the Codification as the sole source for authoritative U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP.  SFAS No. 168 will be effective for financial statements issued for reporting periods that end after September 15, 2009.  Once it’s effective, it will supersede all accounting standards in U.S. GAAP, aside from those issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.  SFAS No. 168 replaces SFAS No. 162 to establish a new hierarchy of GAAP sources for non-governmental entities under the Codification.  We have evaluated the effect of SFAS No. 168 and have concluded that it will have no material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Note 5.  Financial Data by Segment

 

Our reportable segments consist of our senior living community business and our rehabilitation hospital business.   In the senior living community segment, we operate independent living and congregate care communities, assisted living communities and SNFs.  Our rehabilitation hospital segment provides inpatient rehabilitation services at two hospital locations and three satellite locations and outpatient rehabilitation services at 14 affiliated outpatient clinics.  We do not consider our institutional pharmacy operations to be a material, separately reportable segment of our business but we report our institutional pharmacy revenues and expense as separate items within our corporate and other activities.  All of our operations and assets are located in the United States, except for our two captive insurance companies that participate in our liability and workers’ compensation insurance programs and which are located in Bermuda and the Cayman Islands.

 

We use segment operating profit as an important measure to evaluate our performance and for our business decision making purposes.  Segment operating profit excludes interest and other income; interest and other expense; and certain corporate expenses.

 

Our revenues by segments and a reconciliation of segment operating profit (loss) to income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 are as follows:

Corporate and Other includes operations that we do not consider significant, separately reportable segments of our business, as well as income and expenses that are not attributable to a specific segment.

 

 

(2)

General and administrative expenses are not attributable to a specific segment and include items such as corporate payroll and benefits and outside service expenses affecting home office activities.

 

Note 6.  Income Taxes

 

Because we have historically reported losses, we do not currently recognize the benefit of all of our deferred tax assets, including tax loss carry forwards that may be used to offset future taxable income.  We will, however, continue to assess our ability to generate sufficient taxable income during future periods in which our deferred tax assets may be realized.  When we believe that we will more likely than not recover our deferred tax assets, we will record deferred tax assets as an income tax benefit in our consolidated statement of operations, which will affect our results of operations.  As of December 31, 2008, our federal net operating loss carry forward was approximately $165,361.  Our net operating loss carry forwards, that begin to expire in 2023 if unused, are subject to audit and adjustments by the Internal Revenue Service.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2009, we recognized tax expenses of $1,509, which includes $158 of alternative minimum taxes, tax expense of $847 for state taxes on operating income and state tax expense of $437 attributable to the gain on extinguishment of debt, each payable without regard to our tax loss carry forwards.  Tax expense also includes $67 related to a non-cash deferred liability arising from the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes but not for book purposes.

Note 7.  Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share, or EPS, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods.  Diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income applicable to common shareholders that would result from their assumed issuance.  The outstanding weighted average shares used to calculate basic and diluted EPS include approximately 330,000 and 82,000 unvested shares as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, issued  to officers and others under our 2001 Stock Option and Stock Incentive Plan.

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of net income and the number of common shares used in the computations of diluted EPS:

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)

 


(1) Long lived assets held for sale consist of property and equipment we expect to sell to Senior Housing as permitted by our leases.  We determined that these asset costs approximate fair value since we have either recently acquired the assets or the assets are part of ongoing construction projects and we expect to sell these assets to Senior Housing at their recorded value.

 

(2) Our investments in trading securities consist of auction rate securities, or ARS, which are primarily bonds issued by various entities to fund student loans pursuant to the Federal Family Education Loan Program.  Due to events in the credit markets, auctions for our ARS failed starting in the first quarter of 2008 and there is currently no market, or a very illiquid market, in which we might sell these securities.  We measured the fair value of these securities by reference to a statement provided by UBS AG, or UBS, that was calculated with the assistance of a valuation model.  This model considered, among other items, the collateral underlying the investments, the creditworthiness of the counterparty, the timing of expected future cash flows including possible refinancing of the securities and a determination of the appropriate discount rate.  The analysis also included a comparison, when possible, to observable market data of securities with characteristics similar to our ARS.  We reviewed the components of, and calculations made under, UBS’s model.  Due to the changes in fair value for our ARS for the six months ended June 30, 2009, we have recorded an unrealized gain of $3,711. We have entered a settlement agreement with UBS related to our investment in ARS.  Pursuant to this agreement we have the right, or our UBS put right, to require UBS to acquire our ARS at par value on June 30, 2010.  On June 30, 2009, we reclassified our ARS from non-current to current investments since we expect to exercise our UBS put right within one year.

 

(3) We valued our UBS put right by taking into consideration the fair value of our ARS, the amounts outstanding on our loan with UBS and a factor representing our credit party risk with UBS.  The largest risk associated with our put right is the continued financial solvency of UBS. The value of our UBS put right typically fluctuates inversely with the value of the ARS that we hold, however, during the second quarter, we recognized an unrealized gain on both our ARS and, due to a decline in the credit default swap rate for UBS, the value of our UBS put right.  The increase in value of our ARS for the six months ended June 30, 2009 caused an unrealized loss of $3,287 in the value of our UBS put right.  We have accounted for our UBS put right as a freestanding financial instrument and elected to carry it at its estimated fair market value under the fair value option of SFAS No. 159, “ The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets ”.   We elected the fair value option since we expect that, other than changes in UBS’ credit default swap rate and our borrowings on the UBS line, the changes in fair value of the UBS put right will be offset by the fair value change in the ARS.  On June 30, 2009, we reclassified our UBS put right from non-current to current assets due to our expectation to exercise our UBS put right on June 30, 2010.

 

(4) Investments in available for sale securities consist primarily of preferred securities and are reported on our balance sheet as current investments in available for sale securities of $7,961, current restricted investments of $2,867 and long term restricted investments of $7,825.  These securities are carried at fair value utilizing quoted market prices with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income and have an amortized cost of $15,444 and $18,524 as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008.  When a change in fair value is deemed temporary, we record a corresponding credit or charge to other comprehensive income for any unrealized gains or losses.  As of June 30, 2009 and 2008, these securities had unrealized gains of $3,436 and $88 and unrealized losses of $227 and $1,716, respectively.  If we determine that a valuation adjustment is “other than temporary”, we would record a charge to earnings.  We determine the estimated fair value of our available for sale investments by reviewing the current market price, the ratings of the security, the financial condition of the obligor, and our intent and ability to retain the investment for a sufficient period to allow for recovery in the market value of the investment.  In evaluating the factors described above, we presume a decline in value to be “other than temporary” if the quoted market price of the security is below the investment’s cost basis for an extended period.  However, the presumption may be overcome if there is persuasive evidence indicating the decline is temporary in nature, such as if the operating performance of the obligor is strong or the market price of the security is historically volatile.  During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we have recorded an “other than temporary” loss of $2,947, due to current economic conditions involving the companies that issued the securities we hold.  Unrealized gains earned on our available for sale investments are recorded in other comprehensive income for the current period and will be recorded in the statement of income when they are sold.  At June 30, 2009, 11 of the preferred securities we hold are in a loss position that has ranged from six to 45 months and have accumulated losses of $227.  We consider these investments temporarily impaired since we believe we have the ability, and maintain our intent, to hold these investments until recovery of market value occurs.

 

The table below presents the change in fair value measurements that used Level 3 inputs for the six months ended June 30, 2009:

We adopted FSP 107-1 as of April 1, 2009 which requires quarterly fair value disclosures for financial instruments rather than annual disclosure.  Our financial instruments are limited to cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investments in trading securities, investments in available for sale securities, accounts payable, mortgage notes payable, our UBS put right and our convertible senior notes.  We believe that the fair values of our current assets and current liabilities approximate their reported carrying amounts due to the short term nature of these instruments.

 

The carrying values and fair values of non-current financial asset and liabilities, that qualify as financial instruments under FSP 107-1 are shown in the following table.

(1) We measured the fair value of these securities by reference to a statement provided by UBS that was calculated with the assistance of a valuation model.  This model considered, among other items, the collateral underlying the investments, the creditworthiness of the counterparty, the timing of expected future cash flows including possible refinancing of the securities and a determination of the appropriate discount rate.  The analysis also included a comparison, when possible, to observable market data of securities with characteristics similar to our ARS.  We reviewed the components of, and calculations made under, UBS’s model.

 

(2) The carrying value of our restricted cash and investments and our mortgage notes payable approximates its fair value.

 

(3) We measured the fair value of our equity investment in AIC (as defined below) by considering, among other things, the individual assets and liabilities held by AIC, AIC’s overall financial condition and earning trends, and the financial condition and prospects for the insurance industry generally.

(4) We have accounted for our UBS put right as a freestanding economic hedge for a financial asset (our investments in ARS) and elected to carry it at its estimated fair market value under the fair value option.

 

(5) The carrying value of our UBS secured revolving credit facility approximates fair value.

 

(6) We estimate the fair value of our convertible senior notes is determined using quoted market data for these securities.

 

Note 9.  Lines of Credit

 

We have a $40,000 revolving line of credit. Our revolving line of credit is available for acquisitions, working capital and general business purposes and is currently scheduled to expire in May 2010. The amount we are able to borrow at any time is subject to limitation based upon qualifying collateral. We are the borrower under this revolving line of credit and certain of our subsidiaries guarantee our obligations under the facility, which is secured by our and our guarantor subsidiaries’ accounts receivable, deposit accounts and related assets. We borrow in U.S. dollars and borrowings under our revolving line of credit require annual interest at LIBOR plus a premium. The facility contains covenants requiring us to maintain collateral, minimum net worth and certain other financial ratios, places limits on our ability to incur or assume debt or create liens with respect to certain of our properties and has other customary provisions. In certain circumstances and subject to available collateral and lender approvals, the maximum amount which we may borrow under this credit facility may be increased to $80,000. The termination date may be extended twice, in each case by 12 months, subject to lender approval, our payment of extension fees and other conditions. As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, no amounts were outstanding and $40,000 was available under this line of credit. As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, we believe we are in compliance with all applicable covenants under this revolving line of credit. Interest expense and other associated costs related to this facility were $127 and $34 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $166 and $83 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

 

Pursuant to our settlement agreement with UBS, we have a non-recourse credit facility with UBS which is available for acquisitions, working capital and general business purposes. The amount we are able to borrow at any time is 60% of the market value of the ARS which are collateral for the loan.  Such amount may vary over time. Our interest rate under the credit facility will also vary depending on the interest payable to us on the ARS, but will not exceed LIBOR plus 50 basis points. On June 30, 2009, we reclassified our ARS from non-current to current investments since we expect to exercise our put right with UBS within one year.  As a result, on June 30, 2009, we also reclassified our outstanding borrowings from long-term to current as the loan must be repaid with the proceeds from the exercise of our UBS put right.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, we had $39,857 outstanding under this credit facility and approximately $89 remained available to borrow.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, we believe we are in compliance with all applicable covenants under this revolving credit facility. Interest expense and other associated costs related to this facility were $243 and $312 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

 

Note 10.  Mortgages Payable

 

At June 30, 2009, three of our communities were encumbered by United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, or HUD, insured mortgages totaling $12,516.  The weighted average interest rate on these loans was 6.23%.  Payments of principal and interest are due monthly until maturities at varying dates ranging from June 2035 to July 2043.  These mortgages contain standard HUD mortgage covenants. In September 2008, we repaid two HUD insured mortgages that were secured by one of our senior living communities.  Mortgage interest expense, including premium amortization, was $201 and $327 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $403 and $633 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

 

Note 11. Convertible Senior Notes due 2026

 

In October 2006, we issued $126,500 principal amount of our Convertible Senior Notes due 2026, or the Notes, pursuant to an indenture which contains customary covenants .   Our net proceeds from this offering were

 

12



Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)

 

approximately $122,600. The Notes are convertible into our common shares at any time.  The initial conversion rate, which is subject to adjustment, is 76.9231 common shares per $1 principal amount of the Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of $13.00 per share.  A holder that surrenders Notes for conversion in connection with a “make-whole fundamental change”, as defined in the indenture governing the Notes that occurs before October 20, 2011 may in some circumstances be entitled to an increased conversion rate.  Interest expense and other associated costs on the Notes were $675 and $1,239 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $1,545 and $2,478 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, we believe we are in compliance with all applicable covenants of this indenture.

 

In January 2009, we retired $46,500 par value, or 36.8%, of our outstanding Notes that we had purchased for $20,000, plus accrued interest.  We funded this purchase principally by borrowings under our UBS credit facility.  As a result of these purchases, we recorded a $25,125 gain, net of related unamortized costs, on early extinguishment of debt.

 

In April and May 2009, we retired an additional $12,800 par value of our outstanding Notes that we had purchased for $6,317, plus accrued interest.  We funded this purchase principally from cash generated by our operations and borrowings under our UBS credit facility.  As a result of these purchases, we recorded a $6,106 gain, net of related unamortized costs, on early extinguishment of debt.

 

Note 12. Related Person Transactions

 

At June 30, 2009, we leased 181 of our senior living communities and our two rehabilitation hospitals from Senior Housing for a total minimum rent of $174,836.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2009, pursuant to the terms of our leases with Senior Housing, Senior Housing purchased $24,240 of improvements made to our properties leased from Senior Housing, and, as a result, our annual rent payable to Senior Housing increased by approximately $1,942.

 

As of June 30, 2009, we have invested $5,074 in Affiliates Insurance Company, or AIC, an insurance company that is owned by Reit Management & Research, LLC, or RMR, and other companies to which RMR provides management services. We own approximately 16.67% of the common shares of AIC which has a current carrying value of $4,964.  Although we own less than 20% of AIC, we use the equity method to account for our investment in AIC because we believe that we have significant influence over AIC since each of our directors is a director of AIC and since we expect to procure some of our insurance from AIC.  Under the equity method, we record our percentage share of net earnings from AIC in our consolidated statement of income.  If we determine there is an “other than temporary” decline in the fair value of this investment, we would record a charge to earnings.  In evaluating the fair value of this investment, we have considered, among other things, the assets and liabilities held by AIC, AIC’s overall financial condition and earning trends, and the financial condition and prospects for the insurance industry generally.  Subsequent to June 30, 2009, we invested an additional $35 in order to fund our share of certain AIC formation and licensing costs for AIC.

 

For more information about our dealings with our managing directors, Senior Housing, RMR and their affiliates, AIC and about the risks which may arise as a result of these related party transactions, please see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, and Note 14 describing certain subsequent events.

 

Note 13.  Discontinued Operations

 

In March 2007, we agreed with Senior Housing that it should sell two assisted living communities in Pennsylvania, which we lease from Senior Housing.  We and Senior Housing are in the process of selling these assisted living communities and, upon their sale, our annual minimum rent payable to Senior Housing will decrease by 9.0% of the net proceeds of the sale to Senior Housing, in accordance with the terms of our lease with Senior Housing.  In

December 2007, we decided to sell one institutional pharmacy located in California and our mail order pharmacy located in Nebraska.

 

We sold our institutional pharmacy in two installments in the six months ended June 30, 2009, which resulted in a gain on sale of $1,226.  We were unable to sell the mail order pharmacy on acceptable terms and we ceased operations on March 31, 2009.

 

In May 2009, we agreed with Senior Housing that it should sell a SNF located in Iowa which we lease from Senior Housing.  We and Senior Housing are in the process of selling this SNF and, if it is sold, our annual minimum rent payable to Senior Housing will decrease by 10.0% of the net proceeds of the sale to Senior Housing, in accordance with the terms of our lease with Senior Housing.

 

As of June 30, 2009, we had disposed of substantially all of our assets and liabilities related to the assisted living communities which we expect to sell.  The assets and liabilities related to the two pharmacies that we sold or closed are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet.  We have reclassified the consolidated statement of income for all periods presented to show the results of operations of the communities and pharmacies which have been sold or are expected to be sold as discontinued.  Below is a summary of the operating results of these discontinued operations included in the financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008:

Note 14.   Subsequent Events

 

On August 4, 2009, we entered into a lease realignment agreement, or the Realignment Agreement, with Senior Housing.  The Realignment Agreement was entered into to assist Senior Housing in obtaining mortgage financing, or the Loan, from Federal National Mortgage Association, or FNMA, which is secured by 28 properties owned by Senior Housing and leased to us, or the Properties.  The Properties consist of senior living communities with 5,618 living units located in 16 states.  In connection with the FNMA transaction, we realigned our leases with Senior Housing.  Lease No. 1 (which is comprised of four separate leases) now covers 80 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities, and has an initial term that expires in 2024.  Lease No. 2 now covers 50 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities and two rehabilitation hospitals, and has an initial term that expires in 2026.  Lease No. 3 now covers the 28 FNMA financed properties, including independent living communities and assisted living communities, and has an initial term that expires in 2028.  Lease No. 4 now covers 25 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities, and has an initial term that expires in 2017.  In connection with the lease realignment and the FNMA financing, we reached an accommodation with Senior Housing whereby we sold certain of our personal property at the mortgaged properties, we encumbered certain of our assets (e.g. accounts receivable) arising from our operation of the mortgaged properties, we sold 3,200,000 of our common shares and we agreed to certain reporting and other obligations required by FNMA and we were compensated by Senior Housing by receiving a $2,000 annual rent reduction for the term of Lease No. 2, a cash payment of $18,600 and Senior Housing agreed to reimburse us for out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and closing of the Loan.  On August 4, 2009, in connection with the FNMA financing, we also amended our $40,000 revolving line of credit to allow us to pledge the accounts receivable arising from the 28 communities to secure the FNMA loan.  For more information about the agreement we entered with Senior Housing to facilitate this financing please see Part II, Item 5 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operation

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Our reportable segments consist of our senior living community business and our rehabilitation hospital business.   In the senior living community segment, we operate independent living and congregate care communities, assisted living communities and SNFs.  Our rehabilitation hospital segment provides inpatient rehabilitation services at two hospital locations and three satellite locations and outpatient rehabilitation services at 14 outpatient clinics.  We do not consider our institutional pharmacy operations to be a material, separately reportable segment of our business but we report our institutional pharmacy revenues and expense as separate items within our corporate and other activities.  All of our operations and assets are located in the United States, except for our two captive insurance companies that participate in our workers’ compensation and liability insurance programs and which are located in Bermuda and the Cayman Islands.

 

We use segment operating profit as an important measure to evaluate our performance and for internal business decision making purposes.  Segment operating profit excludes interest and other income, interest and other expense and certain corporate expenses.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2009, Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2008

 

Senior living communities:

 

The 11.2% increase in senior living revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was due primarily to revenues from the 28 communities we began to operate after April 1, 2008 plus increased per diem charges, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy.  The 2.3% increase in senior living revenue at the communities that we have operated continuously since April 1, 2008, or our comparable communities, was due primarily to increased per diem charges, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy.

 

Our 16.8% increase in senior living wages and benefits costs for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to wages and benefits from the communities we began to operate after April 1, 2008 and wage increases.  The 2.9% increase in other senior living operating expenses, which include utilities, housekeeping, dietary, maintenance, insurance and community level administrative costs, primarily resulted from the other operating expenses at the communities we began to operate after April 1, 2008.  The senior living community expenses for our comparable communities have increased by 3.1%, due primarily to increases in wages and benefits.  The 14.3% rent expense increase was due to the 18 communities that we began to lease after April 1, 2008 and our payment of additional rent for senior living community capital improvements purchased by Senior Housing since April 1, 2008.

 

The 33.7% increase in depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily attributable to our acquisition of ten communities after April 1, 2008 and our purchase of furniture and fixtures for our owned communities.

 

Rehabilitation hospitals:

 

The 5.1% increase in rehabilitation hospital revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to higher revenue from Medicare’s low income reimbursement program, increases in third party insurance provider rates, and our improved management of patient lengths of stay partially offset by a decrease in occupancy and lower Medicare rate payments.

 

The 0.6% increase in rehabilitation hospital expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to increases in labor and benefit expenses.

 

The 5.9% increase in rent expense for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was due to our payment of additional rent for rehabilitation hospital capital improvements purchased by Senior Housing after April 1, 2008.

 

The 94.8% decrease in depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily attributable to our write off of long lived assets in the fourth quarter of 2008, partially offset by our purchase of computers and related information technology equipment.

 

Corporate and other:

 

Institutional pharmacy revenues were flat for the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 2008, primarily due to the positive impact of adding new customers offset by lower Medicare Part A patient population and decreased revenues per prescription.

 

The 5.4% increase in institutional pharmacy expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to increases in labor and benefit expenses, adding new customers from our senior living and third party senior living communities and additional expenses related to the opening of a new business office and one satellite pharmacy located in Nebraska.

 

The 11.0% increase in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily the result of the costs associated with the 28 communities we began to operate after April 1, 2008.

The 10.9% increase in depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily attributable to our purchase of furniture and fixtures and computers and related information technology equipment for our pharmacies and corporate and regional offices.

 

Our interest, dividend and other income decreased by $444,000, or 36.8%, for the three months ended June 30, 2009 primarily as a result of lower income yields realized on our investments, including lower interest and dividend income.

 

Our interest and other expense decreased by $228,000, or 17.9%, primarily as a result of our purchase and retirement of $59.3 million of our outstanding Notes during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2009, we recognized an unrealized gain of $195,000 on investments in trading securities comprised of ARS and an unrealized gain of $239,000 on the value of our UBS put right.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2009, we retired $12.8 million par value of our outstanding Notes that we had purchased for $6.3 million, plus accrued interest.  As a result of these purchases we recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $6.1 million, net of related unamortized costs, during the second quarter of 2009.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2009, we recognized tax expenses of $993,000, which includes $158,000 of alternative minimum tax, tax expense of $673,000 for state taxes on operating income and state tax expense of $107,000 attributable to the gain on extinguishment of debt, each payable without regard to our tax loss carry forwards.  Tax expense also includes $55,000 related to a non-cash deferred liability arising from the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes but not for book purposes.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2009, Compared To Six Months Ended June 30, 2008

 

Senior living communities:

 

The 13.7% increase in senior living revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was due primarily to revenues from the 42 communities we began to operate after January 1, 2008 and increased per diem charges, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy.  The 1.9% increase in senior living revenue at the communities that we have operated continuously after January 1, 2008, or our comparable communities, was due primarily to increased per diem charges, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy.

 

Our 17.1% increase in senior living wages and benefits costs for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to wages and benefits at the communities we began to operate after January 1, 2008 and wage increases.  The 9.0% increase in other senior living operating expenses, which include utilities, housekeeping, dietary, maintenance, insurance and community level administrative costs, primarily results from the other operating expenses at the communities we began to operate after January 1, 2008 and increased charges from various service providers.  The senior living community expenses at our comparable communities have increased by 3.3%, due primarily to increases in wages and benefits.  The 19.6% rent expense increase was due to the addition of 32 leased communities that we began to operate after January 1, 2008, our payment of percentage rent and our payment of additional rent for senior living community capital improvements purchased by Senior Housing since January 1, 2008.

 

The 31.6% increase in depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily attributable to our acquisition of ten communities after January 1, 2008 and our purchase of furniture and fixtures for our owned communities.

 

Interest and other expense decreased by 36.3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2009, primarily due to our September 2008 prepayment of two HUD insured mortgages secured by one of our communities.

 

Our interest, dividend and other income decreased by $751,000, or 71.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, primarily as a result of recognizing an $840,000 gain during the first quarter of 2008 related to a 2003 sale of a property that was previously deferred until the buyer paid in full our note receivable offset by lower yields on our investments.

 

Rehabilitation hospitals:

 

The 2.4% increase in rehabilitation hospital revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to higher revenue from Medicare’s low income reimbursement program, increases in third party insurance provider rates, and our improved management of patient lengths of stay partially offset by a decrease in occupancy and lower Medicare rate payments.

 

The 1.0% increase in rehabilitation hospital expenses was primarily due to increases in labor and benefit expenses.

 

The 5.5% increase in rent expense for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was due to our payment of additional rent for rehabilitation hospital capital improvements purchased by Senior Housing since April 1, 2008.

 

The 91.4% decrease in depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily attributable to our write off of long lived assets in the fourth quarter of 2008, partially offset by our purchase of computers and information technology equipment.

Table of Contents

 

Corporate and other:

 

The 3.0% increase in institutional pharmacy revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to the positive impact of adding new customers partially offset lower Medicare Part A patient population and decreased revenues per prescription.

 

The 9.3% increase in institutional pharmacy expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to increases in labor and benefit expenses, adding new customers from our senior living and third party senior living communities and additional expenses related to the opening of a new business office and one satellite pharmacy located in Nebraska.

 

The 11.3% increase in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily the result of the costs associated with the 42 communities we began to operate after January 1, 2008.

 

The 10.9% increase in depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily attributable to our purchase of furniture and fixtures and computers and  related information technology equipment for our pharmacies and corporate and regional offices.

 

Our interest, dividend and other income decreased by $1.1 million, or 41.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, primarily as a result of lower yields on our investments, including lower rates of interest and dividend income.

 

Our interest and other expense decreased by $538,000, primarily as a result of our purchase and retirement of $59.3 million of our outstanding Notes after December 31, 2008.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we recognized:

 

·                   an unrealized gain of $3.7 million on investments in trading securities principally related to our holdings of ARS;

·                   an unrealized loss of $3.3 million on the value of our UBS put right; and

·                   an “other than temporary” loss of $2.9 million on investments in available for sale securities.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we retired $59.3 million par value of our outstanding Notes that we purchased for $26.3 million, plus accrued interest.  As a result of these purchases we recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $31.2 million.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2009, we incurred tax expense of $1.5 million, which includes $158,000 of alternative minimum taxes, tax expense of $847,000 for state taxes on operating income and state tax expense of $437,000 attributable to the gain on extinguishment of debt each payable without regard to our tax loss carry forwards.  Tax expense also includes $67,000 related to a non-cash deferred liability arising from the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes but not for book purposes.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2009, we had $23.5 million of cash flows from continuing operations.  As of June 30, 2009, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $21.7 million.  We had no amounts outstanding on our $40.0 million revolving line of credit and $39.9 million outstanding and $89,000 available under our line of credit with UBS.  We believe that our operations will continue to provide us with adequate cash flow to run our businesses and invest in and maintain our properties.  If, however, our occupancy continues to decline and we are unable to generate positive cash flow for an extended period of time, we will attempt to further reduce operating and general and administrative costs and we may need to increase our borrowings under our revolving credit facilities.

Auction Rate Securities

 

At June 30, 2009, we had $66.6 million invested in student loan ARS with a par value of $74.8 million.  We had intended to use the funds which we invested in ARS to invest in potential acquisitions.  Accordingly, these funds are not needed to fund our current operations.  Based upon our expected operating cash flows and other sources of cash, we do not expect the failure of auctions affecting our ARS holdings to have a material adverse impact upon our day to day operations or our ability to meet our liquidity needs.

 

In November 2008, we entered into a settlement with UBS regarding our ARS.  The settlement was made in connection with UBS’s settlement with the SEC, the New York Attorney General and other state agencies related to UBS’s sale and marketing of ARS.  Under the terms of the settlement, we obtained a put right pursuant to which we may require UBS to repurchase our ARS at 100% of par value (including accrued and unpaid interest, if any) at our option during the period beginning June 2010 and ending July 2012.  In certain circumstances, UBS has the right to purchase these securities earlier at par. As part of the settlement terms, we released UBS from all claims arising from its marketing of the ARS to us.  In connection with the settlement, UBS provided us with a non-recourse credit facility secured by our investments in these ARS.  The principal amount available to us under the credit facility is up to 60% of the market value of the ARS from time to time.  As of June 30, 2009, the estimated fair value of our investment in ARS was $66.6 million, we had borrowings of $39.9 million outstanding under the credit facility and $89,000 available for future borrowings.  Our interest rate under the credit facility varies depending on the interest payable to us on the ARS, but will not exceed LIBOR plus 50 basis points.

 

On June 30, 2009, we reclassified our investments in ARS, our UBS put right and our outstanding borrowings on our UBS credit facility from the long term to the current sections of our balance sheet since we expect to exercise our put right with UBS within twelve months . The value of the put right is the difference between our estimated value of UBS’s repurchase obligation and our estimate of the fair value of the ARS.  Accordingly, the value of the put right may increase or decrease as our estimate of the value of UBS’s repurchase obligation and our estimate of the fair value of the ARS changes.  We reassess the fair values of both our ARS and the put right in each reporting period based on several factors including auction and investment redemption experience, changes in credit ratings of UBS and our ARS investments, market risks and other factors. During the six months ended June 30, 2009 we had an unrealized gain of $3.7 million on our investments in ARS and we recognized a corresponding $3.3 million decrease in the fair value of the put right.

 

Assets and Liabilities

 

Our total current assets at June 30, 2009 were $188.0 million, compared to $114.3 million at December 31, 2008.  At June 30, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $21.7 million compared to $16.1 at December 31, 2008.  Our current liabilities were $174.1 million at June 30, 2009, compared to $129.1 million at December 31, 2008.  The increase in current assets is primarily the result of our reclassifying our investments in ARS and our UBS put right from long term to current assets.  The increase in current liabilities is primarily the result of our reclassifying our UBS revolving credit facility from a long term to a current liability.

 

We had cash flows from continuing operations of $23.5 million for the first six months of 2009 as compared with $22.3 million for the same period of 2008.  Acquisitions of property plant and equipment, on a net basis after considering the proceeds from sales of fixed assets to Senior Housing, were $6.9 million and $9.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  During the first six months of 2009, we purchased and retired $59.3 million par value of our Notes for $26.3 million plus accrued interest.

 

Our Leases with Senior Housing

 

As of June 30, 2009, we leased 181 senior living communities and two rehabilitation hospitals from Senior Housing under seven leases (in four combinations).  Our leases with Senior Housing require us to pay minimum rent of $174.8 million annually and percentage rent for most senior living communities but not for our rehabilitation hospitals.  We paid approximately $954,000 and $878,000 in percentage rent to Senior Housing for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively and $1.6 million and $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

 

Upon our request, Senior Housing may purchase capital improvements made at the properties we lease from Senior Housing and increase our rent pursuant to contractual formulas.  During the six months ended June 30, 2009, Senior

Table of Contents

 

Housing reimbursed us $24.2 million for capital expenditures made at the properties leased from Senior Housing and these purchases resulted in our annual rent being increased by $1.9 million.

 

On August 4, 2009, we entered into a Realignment Agreement with Senior Housing to assist Senior Housing in obtaining the Loan from FNMA which is secured by the Properties.  The Properties consist of senior living communities with 5,618 living units located in 16 states.  In connection with the FNMA transaction, we realigned our leases with Senior Housing.  Lease No. 1 (which is comprised of four separate leases) now covers 80 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities, and has an initial term that expires in 2024.  Lease No. 2 now covers 50 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities and two rehabilitation hospitals, and has an initial term that expires in 2026.  Lease No. 3 now covers the 28 FNMA financed properties, including independent living communities and assisted living communities, and has an initial term that expires in 2028.  Lease No. 4 now covers 25 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities, and has an initial term that expires in 2017.  In connection with the lease realignment and the FNMA financing, we reached an accommodation with Senior Housing whereby we sold certain of our personal property at the mortgaged properties, we encumbered certain of our assets (e.g. accounts receivable) arising from our operation of the mortgaged properties, we sold 3.2 million of our common shares and we agreed to certain reporting and other obligations required by FNMA and we were compensated by Senior Housing by receiving a $2 million annual rent reduction for the term of Lease No. 2, a cash payment of $18.6 million and Senior Housing agreed to reimburse us for out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and closing of the Loan.  For more information about the agreement we entered with Senior Housing to facilitate this financing please see Part II, Item 5 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Our Revenues

 

Our revenues from services to residents at our senior living communities and patients of our rehabilitation hospitals and clinics are our primary source of cash to fund our operating expenses, including rent, principal and interest payments on our debt and our capital expenditures.

 

During the past year, our occupancy has been negatively affected by worsening economic conditions throughout the country.  These conditions appear to be impacting many companies both within and outside of our industry and there can be no certainty as to when current economic conditions may improve.

 

At some of our senior living communities and at our rehabilitation hospitals and clinics, operating revenues for skilled nursing and rehabilitation services are received from the Medicare and Medicaid programs.  Medicare and Medicaid revenues were earned primarily at our SNFs and rehabilitation hospitals.  We derived 33.8% and 36.0% of our senior living and rehabilitation hospital revenues from these programs during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

 

Our net Medicare revenues from services to senior living community residents totaled $73.9 million and $68.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  Our net Medicaid revenues from services to senior living community residents totaled $81.3 million and $75.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  Federal agencies and some members of Congress have proposed Medicare and Medicaid policy changes and freezes on rate increases or rate reductions to be phased in during the next several years.  The Federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, has recently adopted rules that it estimates will decrease aggregate Medicare payments to SNFs by approximately 1.1% in federal fiscal year 2010.  In addition, some of the states in which we operate either have not raised Medicaid rates by amounts sufficient to offset increasing costs or have frozen or reduced, or are expected to freeze or reduce, Medicaid rates.  The current recession and worsening economic conditions are causing budget shortfalls in many states, increasing the likelihood of Medicaid rate reductions, freezes on rate increases, or increases that are insufficient to offset increasing operating costs.  The magnitude of the potential Medicare and Medicaid rate reductions and the impact on us of the failure of these programs to increase rates to match increasing expenses, as well as the impact on us of the potential Medicare and Medicaid policy changes, cannot currently be estimated, but they may be material to our operations and may affect our future results of operations. Effective as of October 1, 2008, CMS increased Medicare rates for SNFs by approximately 3.5% for the federal fiscal year ending September 30, 2009, under a rule adding an annual update to account for inflation in the cost of goods and services included in a SNF stay.  CMS had proposed a recalibration of the payment categories for SNFs, which would have resulted in a net reduction of rates by approximately 0.3% in federal fiscal year 2009, but delayed the recalibration in order to continue to evaluate the data.  However, CMS has recently adopted rules recalibrating

the Medicare prospective payment categories for SNFs for federal fiscal year 2010.  The recalibration will result in a decrease of approximately 3.3% in projected SNF payments, offset by a proposed increase of approximately 2.2% to account for inflation.  As a result, CMS estimates that aggregate Medicare payments to SNFs will be reduced by approximately 1.1% in fiscal year 2010, on or after October 1, 2009.  On July 15, 2008, as part of the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act of 2008, Congress enacted an 18-month extension of the Medicare outpatient therapy exception process through the end of 2009, under which Medicare may approve payments for medically necessary outpatient therapies which exceed the Medicare payment caps.  This July 15, 2008 law forestalls a reduction in certain therapy revenues that we have historically realized.

 

Approximately 62.0% and 64.6% of our revenues from our two rehabilitation hospitals came from the Medicare and Medicaid programs combined for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  In October 2007, the Medicare rates at our inpatient rehabilitation facilities, or IRFs, increased by approximately 3.2% over the prior period.  However, this increase was later rescinded and, for payments on and after April 1, 2008, the Medicare rate increase was reset to zero per cent for federal fiscal years 2008 and 2009.  Also, on July 1, 2008, CMS issued a rule updating the Medicare IRF prospective rate formulas for the federal fiscal year 2009.  This rule revised the weights assigned to patient case mix groups that are used to calculate rates under the IRF prospective payment system, and reset the outlier threshold to maintain estimated outlier payments at 3% of total estimated IRF payments for the year.  CMS estimated that the rule would result in a decrease of 0.7% to total Medicare payments to IRFs for the year.  CMS has recently adopted an increase of approximately 2.5% to Medicare prospective payment rates at IRFs for fiscal year 2010, to account for inflation, and set the outlier payment limits at 3% of total estimated IRF payments for fiscal year 2010.  This increase will take effect on and after October 1, 2009.  CMS has also adopted regulations clarifying the coverage criteria for Medicare patients in IRFs, to be effective on January 1, 2010.  These regulations include requirements for patient selection, treatment planning, coordination of care, and professional training and experience.  In May 2004, CMS issued the “75% Rule” establishing revised Medicare criteria that rehabilitation hospitals are required to meet in order to participate as IRFs in the Medicare program.  As recently amended, the rule requires that for cost reporting periods starting on and after July 1, 2006, 60% of a facility’s inpatient population must require intensive rehabilitation services for one of the CMS’s designated medical conditions.  The rule is now commonly known as the “60% Rule”.  An IRF that fails to meet the requirements of this rule is subject to reclassification as a different type of healthcare provider; and the effect of such reclassification would be to lower Medicare payment rates. As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, we believe we are in compliance with the CMS requirements to remain an IRF.  However, the actual percentage of patients at our hospitals who meet these Medicare requirements may not be or remain as high as we believe or may decline.  Our failure to remain in compliance with CMS requirements to be paid as an IRF, or a CMS finding of noncompliance, if it occurs, will result in our receiving lower Medicare rates than we currently receive at our rehabilitation hospitals.

 

Debt Financings and Covenants

 

In October 2006, we issued $126.5 million principal amount of Notes.  These Notes are convertible into our common shares at any time.  The initial conversion rate, which is subject to adjustment, is 76.9231 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of $13.00 per share.  The Notes are guaranteed by certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries.  These Notes mature on October 15, 2026.  We may prepay the Notes at any time after October 20, 2011 and the Note holders may require that we purchase all or a portion of these Notes on each of October 15 of 2013, 2016 and 2021.  We issued these Notes pursuant to an indenture which contains various customary covenants.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, we believe we are in compliance with all applicable covenants of this indenture.

 

In 2009, we retired $59.3 million par value of our outstanding Notes that we had purchased for $26.3 million plus accrued interest.  We funded these purchases, principally by borrowings under our UBS credit facility and from cash generated by our operations.  As a result of these purchases, we recorded a gain of $31.2 million net of related unamortized costs on early extinguishment of debt.

 

We have a $40.0 million revolving secured credit facility with a financial institution available for general business purposes, including acquisitions and working capital, which is currently scheduled to expire in May 2010. The amount we are able to borrow at any time is subject to limitations based upon qualifying collateral.  We are the borrower under this revolving credit facility and certain of our subsidiaries guarantee our obligations under the facility, which is secured by our and our guarantor subsidiaries’ accounts receivable, deposit accounts and related assets.  The facility contains covenants requiring us to maintain collateral, minimum net worth and certain other

financial ratios; and this facility also places limits on our ability to incur or assume debt or create liens with respect to certain of our assets and has other customary provisions.  In certain circumstances and subject to available collateral and lender approvals, the maximum amounts which we may borrow under this credit facility may be increased to $80.0 million.  The termination date may be extended twice, in each case by 12 months upon our payment of extension fees and other conditions, including lenders’ approvals.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, no amounts were outstanding and $40.0 million was available to be borrowed under this credit facility.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, we believe we are in compliance with all applicable covenants under this credit facility.  We may borrow under our facility before it expires in May 2010.  If we have outstanding borrowings under the facility and are unable to extend it when it expires, we would need to explore alternatives for the repayment of amounts due.  Such alternatives may include incurring additional debt and engaging in sale leaseback transactions relating to some or all of our owned communities.  While we believe we will be able to extend this facility or raise funds to repay any outstanding borrowings, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so or that our cost associated with any such transaction will be reasonable.  If current capital market conditions continue or worsen, our lenders under this facility may be unable or unwilling to fund advances which we request or to extend or renew this facility when it expires and we may not be able to access additional capital.  Also, the current market conditions have led to materially increased credit spreads which, if they continue, may result in a material increase in the interest rate under this facility when it is extended or renewed.

 

In November 2008, we entered into a non-recourse credit facility with UBS which is available for acquisitions, working capital and general business purposes.  The amount we are able to borrow is 60% of the fair value of the ARS which are collateral for the loan and such amount may vary over time.  Our interest rate under the credit facility varies depending on the interest payable to us on the ARS, but will not exceed LIBOR plus 50 basis points.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, the estimated fair value of our investment in ARS was $66.6 million; and we had $39.9 million outstanding under this credit facility and approximately $89,000 remained available for borrowing.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009 we believe we are in compliance with all applicable covenants under this credit facility.

 

At June 30, 2009, three of our communities were encumbered by HUD insured mortgages totaling $12.5 million.  The weighted average interest rate on these mortgages is 6.23%.  Payments of principal and interest are due monthly until maturities at varying dates ranging from June 2035 to July 2043.  These mortgages contain standard HUD mortgage covenants.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, we believe we are in compliance with all covenants of these mortgages.

 

Related Person Transactions

 

Senior Housing is our former parent company and we have numerous continuing relationships with Senior Housing.  As of June 30, 2009, we leased 181 senior living communities and two rehabilitation hospitals from Senior Housing for total annual minimum rent of $174.8 million.  In addition to the minimum rent, we paid $954,000 and $878,000 in percentage rent to Senior Housing for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $1.6 million and $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

 

Upon our request, Senior Housing may purchase our capital improvements made at the properties we lease from Senior Housing and increase our rent pursuant to contractual formulas.  During the six months ended June 30, 2009, Senior Housing reimbursed us $24.2 million for capital expenditures made at the properties leased from Senior Housing and these purchases resulted in our annual rent being increased by $1.9 million.

 

As of June 30, 2009, we have invested $5.1 million in AIC, an insurance company that is owned by RMR and other companies to which RMR provides management services. We own approximately 16.67% of the common shares of AIC which has a current carrying value of $5.0 million.  Although we own less than 20% of AIC, we use the equity method to account for our investment in AIC because we believe that we have significant influence over AIC since each of our directors is a director of AIC and since we expect to procure some of our insurance from AIC.  Under the equity method, we record our percentage share of net earnings from AIC in our consolidated statement of income.  If we determine there is an “other than temporary” decline in the fair value of this investment, we would record a charge to earnings.  In evaluating the fair value of this investment, we have considered, among other things, the assets and liabilities held by AIC, AIC’s overall financial condition and earning trends, and the financial condition and prospects for the

 

25



Table of Contents

 

insurance industry generally.  Subsequent to June 30, 2009, we invested an additional $35,000 in order to fund our share of certain AIC formation and licensing costs.

 

We believe that all transactions with all parties are on reasonable commercial terms.  We also believe that our relationships with Senior Housing and RMR benefit us and, in fact, provide us competitive advantages in operating and growing our businesses.  Because of the relationships between us and Senior Housing, all of our transactions with Senior Housing are approved by our Independent Directors and Senior Housing’s Independent Trustees.

 

On August 4, 2009, we entered into a Realignment Agreement with Senior Housing to assist Senior Housing in obtaining the Loan from FNMA which is secured by the Properties.  The Properties consist of senior living communities with 5,618 living units located in 16 states.  In connection with the FNMA transaction, we realigned our leases with Senior Housing.  Lease No. 1 (which is comprised of four separate leases) now covers 80 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities, and has an initial term that expires in 2024.  Lease No. 2 now covers 50 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities and two rehabilitation hospitals, and has an initial term that expires in 2026.  Lease No. 3 now covers the 28 FNMA financed properties, including independent living communities and assisted living communities, and has an initial term that expires in 2028.  Lease No. 4 now covers 25 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities, and has an initial term that expires in 2017.  In connection with the lease realignment and the FNMA financing, we reached an accommodation with Senior Housing whereby we sold certain of our personal property at the mortgaged properties, we encumbered certain of our assets (e.g. accounts receivable) arising from our operation of the mortgaged properties, we sold 3.2 million of our common shares and we agreed to certain reporting and other obligations required by FNMA and we were compensated by Senior Housing by receiving a $2 million annual rent reduction for the term of Lease No. 2, a cash payment of $18.6 million and Senior Housing agreed to reimburse us for out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and closing of the Loan.  For more information about the agreement we entered with Senior Housing to facilitate this financing please see Part II, Item 5 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

For more information about our dealings with our managing directors, Senior Housing, RMR and their affiliates, AIC and about the risks which may arise as a result of these related person transactions, please see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, or the Annual Report, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, or the First Quarter Report, the other Items in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and our other filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and in particular, the section captions “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report, the sections captioned “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation — Related Person Transactions” in the Annual Report, First Quarter Report and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the sections captioned “Related Person Transactions and Company Review of Such Transactions” in our Proxy Statement dated March 30, 2009, or the Proxy Statement, relating to our 2009 Annual Shareholders Meeting.

 

Seasonality

 

Our senior living business is subject to modest effects of seasonality. During the calendar fourth quarter holiday periods, nursing home and assisted living residents are sometimes discharged to join family celebrations and admission decisions are often deferred. The first quarter of each calendar year usually coincides with increased illness among nursing home and assisted living residents which can result in increased costs or discharges to hospitals. As a result of these factors, nursing home and assisted living operations sometimes produce greater earnings in the second and third quarters of a calendar year and lesser earnings in the first and fourth quarters. We do not believe that this seasonality will cause fluctuations in our revenues or operating cash flow to such an extent that we will have difficulty paying our expenses, including rent, which do not fluctuate seasonally.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are exposed to risks associated with market changes in interest rates.  We manage our exposure to this market risk by monitoring available financing alternatives.  Our strategy to manage exposure to changes in interest rates is unchanged from December 31, 2008.  Other than as described below, we do not foresee any significant changes in our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates or in how we manage this exposure in the near future.

 

Changes in market interest rates also affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt; increases in market interest rates decrease the fair value of our fixed rate debt, while decreases in market interest rates increase the fair value of our fixed rate debt.   For example: based upon discounted cash flow analysis, if prevailing interest rates were to increase by 10% of current interest rates and other credit market considerations remained unchanged, the aggregate market value of our $12.4 million mortgage debt and $67.2 million Notes outstanding on June 30, 2009 would decline by about $3.0 million; and, similarly, if prevailing interest rates were to decline by 10% of current interest rates and other credit market considerations remained unchanged, the aggregate market value of our $12.4 million mortgage debt and $67.2 million Notes outstanding on June 30, 2009, would increase by about $3.2 million.

Our revolving credit facility bears interest at floating rates and matures in May 2010.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, no amounts were outstanding under this credit facility.  We borrow in U.S. dollars and borrowings under our revolving credit facility require annual interest at LIBOR plus a spread.  Accordingly, we are vulnerable to changes in U.S. dollar based short term, interest rates, specifically LIBOR.  A change in interest rates would not affect the value of any outstanding floating rate debt but could affect our operating results.  For example, if the maximum amount of $40.0 million were drawn under our credit facility and interest rates decreased or increased by 1% per annum, our annual interest expense would decrease or increase by $400,000, or $0.01 per share, based on currently outstanding common shares.  If interest rates were to change gradually over time, the impact would occur over time.

 

In November 2008, we entered into a non-recourse credit facility with UBS secured by our ARS.  As of June 30, 2009 and August 10, 2009, $39.9 million was outstanding under this credit facility.  We borrow in U.S. dollars and interest payments under this non-recourse credit facility will vary depending on the interest payable on the ARS, but will not exceed LIBOR plus 50 basis points.  A change in interest rates would not affect the value of any outstanding floating rate annual debt but would affect our operating results.  If interest rates were to increase or decrease by 1% per annum and the amount outstanding under this credit facility remained unchanged from the amount outstanding on June 30, 2009 our annual interest expense would increase or decrease by $399,000 or about $0.01 per share based upon our number of shares outstanding on June 30, 2009.  The amount of money we may borrow under this UBS credit facility depends upon the market value of our ARS.  Because our ARS are income securities, it is likely that the market value of our ARS will be affected by changes in interest rates; as interest rates increase the market value of our ARS might decline, and as interest rates decrease the market value on our ARS should increase.  However, there are other factors which might impact the market value of our ARS, such as supply and demand and liquidity, such that we do not believe the impact of interest rate changes upon the value of our ARS and our borrowing capacity under the UBS credit facility can be precisely determined.

 

Our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates may increase in the future if we incur debt to fund acquisitions or otherwise.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15.  Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2009, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II.    Other Information

 

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

On May 14, 2009, we granted 7,500 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, valued at $2.36 per share, the closing price of our common shares on the NYSE Amex on that day, to each of our five directors as part of their annual compensation.  We made these grants pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 5. Other Informatio n

 

On August 4, 2009, we entered into the Realignment Agreement with Senior Housing.  The Realignment Agreement was entered into to assist Senior Housing in obtaining the Loan from FNMA which is secured by the Properties.

 

Prior to the Realignment Agreement, we leased 183 senior living communities from Senior Housing under four leases, or the Leases.  We still lease 183 senior living communities from Senior Housing.  Pursuant to the terms of the Realignment Agreement, (1) the Leases were reconfigured as described below, (2) we sold certain personal property located at the Properties to subsidiaries of Senior Housing, (3) we sold to Senior Housing 3,200,000 shares, or the Shares, of common stock, $.01 par value per share, which represents approximately 9% of our total common stock outstanding, (4) we agreed to certain reporting and other operating obligations required by FNMA, and (5) our subsidiaries pledged to FNMA certain tangible and intangible personal property, such as accounts receivable and contract rights, located at, or arising from the operations of, the Properties to secure their obligations under the Lease under which the Properties are leased and certain of their obligations relating to the Loan.  To compensate us for the sale of personal property, the sale of the Shares, the pledge of personal property and for the services and obligations that we have assumed, Senior Housing (1) reduced the rent payable by us to Senior Housing under one of the Leases, but not the lease under which the Properties are leased, by $2 million per year for the term of that Lease, which will expire in 2026, (2) paid us a total of $18.6 million, and (3) agreed to reimburse us for our out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and closing of the Loan.

 

As a result of the transaction, the Leases were reconfigured so that the Properties, which are mortgaged to FNMA, are all leased under a single lease, or the FNMA Lease, which includes independent living communities and assisted living communities and has an initial term that expires in 2028.  Lease no. 1 (which is comprised of four separate leases) now covers 80 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities and has an initial term that expires in 2024.  Lease No. 2 now covers 50 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities and two rehabilitation hospitals and has an initial term that expires in 2026.  Lease no. 4 now covers 25 properties, including independent living communities, assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities and has an initial term that expires in 2017.  Pursuant to the Realignment Agreement, the Leases subject to the Realignment Agreement (other than the FNMA Lease) no longer prohibit our tenant subsidiaries from incurring debt secured by our investments, and no longer prohibit our tenant subsidiaries from incurring liabilities, although such Leases do still prohibit our tenant subsidiaries from engaging in any business other than the leasing and operation of properties leased from Senior Housing.

 

On August 4, 2009, pursuant to the Realignment Agreement described above, we sold the Shares to Senior Housing.  This sale does not involve any public offering and is therefore exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  In connection with this sale, we entered into a registration rights agreement with Senior Housing, or the Registration Rights Agreement.  However, the sale of the Shares by Senior Housing are restricted if it would limit our ability to apply net operating loss carryforwards or similar tax benefits.  The issuance of the Shares to Senior Housing was included in the Realignment Agreement to compensate us for certain undertakings and so that Senior Housing may participate in the benefits which we may realize under the Realignment Agreement.

In connection with our entry into the Realignment Agreement, on August 4, 2009, we entered into an amendment, or the Amendment, to our revolving credit facility with Wachovia Bank, National Association, to allow us to pledge certain personal property arising from the operations of the Properties to secure our obligations under the FNMA Lease and certain of our obligations relating to the Loan.

 

The terms of the Realignment Agreement described above were negotiated and approved by special committees of our independent directors and Senior Housing’s independent trustees, none of whom are trustees or directors of the other company.  Each special committee was represented by separate counsel.

Exhibit 10.1

 

LEASE REALIGNMENT AGREEMENT

 

This Lease Realignment Agreement (this “ Agreement ”) is made August 4, 2009, among Senior Housing Properties Trust (“ SNH ”) and its subsidiaries listed on the signature page to this Agreement (together with SNH, the “ SNH Parties ”) and Five Star Quality Care, Inc. (“ Five Star ”) and its subsidiaries listed on the signature page to this Agreement (together with Five Star, the “ Five Star Parties ” and together with the SNH Parties, the “ Parties ”).

 

RECITAL

 

Certain of the SNH Parties and certain of the Five Star Parties are, respectively, landlords and tenants under the leases listed on Schedule A (collectively, the “ Leases ”) of skilled nursing, intermediate care, independent living, assisted living, special care and group home facilities, rehabilitation hospital, clinic or professional level health or medical services facilities, and other healthcare properties identified in the Leases (collectively, “ Leased Properties ”).

 

To facilitate a term loan (“ Term Loan ”) to be made to SNH FM Financing LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of SNH (“ SNH Financing ”), by Citibank, N.A. (“ Citibank ”), the Parties have agreed to (a) amend and restate the Leases numbered 1-4 on Schedule A (collectively, as amended and restated, the “ Amended and Restated Leases ”) to, inter alia , change the pools of Leased Properties demised thereunder and to further amend (the “ First Amendment ”) the Amended and Restated Lease under which the Leased Properties identified on Schedule B (the “ Mortgaged Properties ”) will be leased (the “ Term Loan Lease ”), (b) amend and restate the security agreements from the tenants under the Amended and Restated Leases (collectively, the “ Amended and Restated Security Agreements ”), (c) amend and restate certain of the subleases under the Amended and Restated Leases, (collectively, the “ Amended and Restated Subleases ”), (d) amend and restate the security agreements from the subtenants under the Amended and Restated Subleases (collectively, the “ Amended and Restated Subtenant Security Agreements ”), (e) amend and restate the Five Star guarantees and the subtenants’ guarantees of the Amended and Restated Leases (collectively, the “ Amended and Restated Guarantys ”), (f) terminate all pledges of equity interests of tenants and subtenants under the Leases and an assignment and security agreement with respect to reserves for furniture, fixtures and equipment thereunder (collectively, the “ Termination Agreements ”), (g) the sale by certain of the Five Star Parties to the SNH Party that is the landlord under the Term Loan Lease of furniture, fixtures and equipment (the “ FF&E ”) located at the Mortgaged Properties, (h) the pledge by certain of the Five Star Parties to Citibank of inventory and equipment used at the Mortgaged Properties and leases, rents, contracts and accounts receivable relating to or arising from operation of the Mortgaged Properties pursuant to Subordination, Assignment and Security Agreements (the “ SASAs ”) and certain further amendments to the Term Loan Lease as provided therein, and (i) conform certain reporting and operational obligations of those Five Star Parties which are tenants and/or operators of the Mortgaged Properties to those required by the Term Loan.

 

In addition, to facilitate the Term Loan, certain of the Five Star Parties have been in negotiation with Citibank with respect to agreements and instruments to be executed and delivered by them in connection therewith and with Wachovia Bank, National Association (“ Wachovia ”) with respect to amendments to their credit facility with Wachovia.

 



 

In connection with all of the foregoing, the Parties have agreed to certain accommodations to facilitate the Term Loan.

 

Now, therefore, the Parties agree:

 

1.                                        Execution and Delivery .  Contemporaneously with the closing of the Term Loan, the Amended and Restated Leases, the First Amendment, the Amended and Restated Security Agreements, the Amended and Restated Subleases, the Amended and Restated Subtenant Security Agreements, the Amended and Restated Guarantys, the Termination Agreements, the SASAs, bills of sale for the FF&E and all other agreements, instruments and documents required in connection therewith will be executed and delivered by the SNH Parties and the Five Star Parties which are parties thereto in the forms agreed to by such Parties.

 

2.                                        Common Stock .  Contemporaneously with the closing of the Term Loan, SNH will purchase and Five Star will sell 3,200,000 shares of Five Star’s common stock, par value $0.01 (the “ FVE Common Stock ”), and Five Star and SNH will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement in the form of Exhibit A (the “ Registration Rights Agreement ”); provided, however, that Five Star shall not issue the FVE Common Stock to SNH until Five Star receives notification from the NYSE Amex LLC of the NYSE Amex LLC’s approval for listing with the NYSE Amex LLC the FVE Common Stock to be issued by Five Star to SNH pursuant to this Section 2.  Five Star agrees to submit within five business days of the date of this Agreement a listing application with the NYSE Amex LLC for listing approval with the NYSE Amex LLC of the FVE Common Stock.

 

3.                                        Consideration .  In consideration for the purchase and sale of the FF&E, the FVE Common Stock and certain other accommodations afforded the SNH Parties by the FVE Parties as contemplated by this Agreement and the other agreements, instruments and documents executed and delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and as reimbursement for certain internal costs of the Five Star Parties, contemporaneously with the closing of the Term Loan, SNH will pay Five Star $18,600,000 in cash and effect the rent reduction provided in Section 5 hereof.

 

4.                                        Expenses .  Upon receipt of invoices and in addition to the payment provided in Section 3 hereof, SNH will pay all past and future out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including attorney’s fees, incurred by the Five Star Parties in connection with or arising from the negotiation and closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (but not costs and expenses of continued maintenance or compliance) and the other agreements, instruments and documents executed and delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including all past and future costs and expenses in connection with or arising from the organization (but not the continued maintenance) of additional subsidiaries and licensing.

 

5.                                        Rent Reduction .  Minimum Rent (defined in the Amended and Restated Leases) for the Amended and Restated Lease which includes the Leased Properties known as the New England Rehabilitation Hospital and the Braintree Rehabilitation Hospital will, upon closing of the Term Loan, be reduced by an annual amount equal to $2,000,000 until the expiration or sooner termination of the Fixed Term (as defined in that Amended and Restated Lease).

 

2



 

6.                                        Uneconomic Properties .  So long as the First Amendment is effective (as such amendment may be amended or modified from time to time), if the tenant under the Term Loan Lease reasonably determines that it is no longer economically practical to operate a Mortgaged Property as it is then operated and desires to market such Mortgaged Property for sale or to replace such Mortgaged Property with another property which is not then a Mortgaged Property, then upon notice to SNH with supporting information, to the extent SNH Financing may then do so in compliance with its covenants under the Term Loan, and so long as SNH Financing would not be subject to any make-whole or similar payment, the landlord under the Term Loan Lease will reasonably cooperate with the tenant and negotiate in good faith with Citibank (or its successors) to permit such a sale or replacement of such Mortgaged Property, subject to any required prepayment of the Term Loan not being in excess of the sale proceeds if the Mortgaged Property is sold or, if the Mortgaged Property is to be replaced, to no prepayment being required, and to permit an amendment of the Term Loan Lease to reduce the Minimum Rent (defined in the Term Loan Lease) upon such sale, consistent with the terms of the Term Loan Lease as in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the First Amendment, or upon such replacement, to adjust the Minimum Rent, if appropriate, on terms acceptable to the landlord and tenant.  To the extent such sale or replacement could not be done by SNH Financing in compliance with its covenants under the Term Loan, SNH Financing shall negotiate in good faith with Citibank (or its successors) to obtain the consent of Citibank (or its successors) to such sale or replacement, subject to the other qualifications of the immediately preceding sentence.

 

7.                                        Cooperation .  Each of the Parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to cooperate with each other in connection with the foregoing, whether before or after the closing of the Term Loan.  Additionally, the Five Star Parties will timely provide the SNH Parties with information and documentation reflecting the historical cost basis of the Five Star Parties in the FF&E.

 

8.                                        Redemption and Compliance .  Five Star shall not and shall cause its subsidiaries not to offer to redeem or redeem any shares of Five Star common stock if as a result of such redemption the FVE Common Stock issued to SNH by Five Star pursuant to this Agreement would then represent more than 9.8% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Five Star common stock; provided for these purposes, shares issued to officers and employees which are subject to vesting or similar restrictions shall not be deemed to be issued and outstanding.  Five Star will reasonably cooperate with any SNH request involving SNH’s compliance with section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (including the applicable attribution rules of section 856(d)(5)).

 

9.                                        Transfer Restrictions .  Subject to ownership limitations in Five Star’s governing instruments, as they may be in effect from time to time, for so long as Five Star may have net operating loss carryforwards or similar tax benefits which may be applied to Five Star’s future taxable income and the application of such loss carryforwards or benefits may be limited as a result of ownership changes in Five Star’s stock pursuant to applicable tax law, regulations or rules, SNH shall not sell, dispose or otherwise transfer, or offer to do the same, without Five Star’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), any shares of the FVE Common Stock.

 

3



 

10.                                  Indemnity .  Should any of the Parties default in its obligations under the Term Loan or any agreement, document or instrument executed in connection therewith, such defaulting Parties will pay or reimburse any other Party for any cost, expense, loss or damage suffered or incurred by such other Party as a result of such default.

2.1.2                       Underwritten Offering .  If the Shareholder so elects and so advises the Company as part of its written demand for a Demand Registration, the offering of such Restricted Shares pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering.  In such case, the Shareholder shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Shareholder (which Underwriter or Underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company), complete and execute any questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, securities escrow agreements and other documents reasonably required or which are otherwise customary under the terms of such underwriting agreement, and furnish to the Company such information as the Company may reasonably request in writing for inclusion in the Registration Statement.

 

2.1.3                       Reduction of Offering .  If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises the Company and the Shareholder that the dollar amount or number of Restricted Shares which the Shareholder desires to sell taken together with all other shares or other securities which the Shareholder has agreed may be included in such offering, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares or other securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Shares ”) , then the Company shall include in such registration:  (i) first, the Restricted Shares which the Shareholder has requested be included in the Demand Registration; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Shares or other securities for the account of other security holders of the Company that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

written notice to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters of its request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration.  In such event, the Company need not seek effectiveness of such Registration Statement.  If the Shareholder’s withdrawal is based on (i) a material adverse change in circumstances with respect to the Company and not known to the Shareholder at the time the Shareholder makes its written demand for such Demand Registration, (ii) the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or (iii) a reduction pursuant to Section 2.1.3 of 10% or more of the number of Restricted Shares which the Shareholder has requested be included in the Demand Registration, such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration for purposes of Section 3.1.1(b) or (e).

supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Shareholder expressly for use therein.  The Shareholder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by the Shareholder.

 

4.3                                  Notification of Indemnification .  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 4 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any action by a governmental authority), such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 4, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided , however , that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of one such counsel to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding.  The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 4, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 4.

 

5.                                        UNDERWRITING AND DISTRIBUTION.

 

5.1                                  Rule 144 .  The Company covenants that it shall file all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall take such further action as the Shareholder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Shareholder to sell Restricted Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or any similar provision thereto, but not Rule 144A.

(d)                                  There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

(g)                                  The Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(h)                                  Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  The party against which the Award assesses a monetary

 

16



 

obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the 30th day following the date of the Award or such other date as the Award may provide.

 

6.11                            Governing Law .  Except as to matters regarding the internal affairs of the Company or the Shareholder and issues of or limitations on any personal liability of the shareholders, trustees and directors of the Company or the Shareholder, as to which the laws of such party’s jurisdiction of formation or organization shall govern, this Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof that would require the application of any law of another jurisdiction.

22



 

Year (or any portion thereof occurring during the Term), Tenant shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Landlord (i) a financial report setting forth the Gross Revenues for each Property for such preceding Lease Year, or portion thereof, together with an Officer’s Certificate from Tenant’s chief financial or accounting officer certifying that such report is true and correct, and (ii) a statement showing Tenant’s calculation of Additional Rent due for such preceding Lease Year, or portion thereof, based on the Gross Revenues set forth in such financial report, together with an Officer’s Certificate from Tenant’s chief financial or accounting officer certifying that such statement is true and correct.

 

If the annual Additional Rent for such preceding Lease Year as set forth in Tenant’s statement thereof exceeds the amount previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant, Tenant shall pay such excess to Landlord at such time as the statement is delivered, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the close of such preceding Lease Year until the date that such statement is required to be delivered and, thereafter, such interest shall accrue at the Overdue Rate, until the amount of such difference shall be paid or otherwise discharged.  If the annual Additional Rent for such preceding Lease Year as shown in such statement is less than the amount previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant, provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord shall grant Tenant a credit against the Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date such credit is applied or paid, as the case may be.  If such credit cannot be made because the Term has expired prior to application in full thereof, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the unapplied balance of such credit to Tenant, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment by Landlord.

 

(d)           Confirmation of Additional Rent .  Tenant shall utilize, or cause to be utilized, an accounting system for the Leased Property in accordance with its usual and customary practices and in all material respects in accordance with GAAP, which will accurately record all Gross Revenues and Tenant shall retain, for at least three

 

23



 

(3) years after the expiration of each Lease Year, reasonably adequate records conforming to such accounting system showing all Gross Revenues for such Lease Year.  Landlord, at its own expense, except as provided hereinbelow, shall have the right, exercisable by Notice to Tenant, by its accountants or representatives, to audit the information set forth in the Officer’s Certificate referred to in subparagraph (c) above and, in connection with such audits, to examine Tenant’s books and records with respect thereto (including supporting data and sales and excise tax returns).  Landlord shall begin such audit as soon as reasonably possible following its receipt of the applicable Officer’s Certificate and shall complete such audit as soon as reasonably possible thereafter.  All such audits shall be performed at the location where such books and records are customarily kept and in such a manner so as to minimize any interference with Tenant’s business operations.  If any such audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Additional Rent and either Tenant agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the amount of the deficiency, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, from the date such payment should have been made to the date of payment thereof, and if the amount of such deficiency exceeds five percent (5%) of the Additional Rent that should have been paid for any Lease Year, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the aggregate amount of all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any such audit.  If any such audit discloses that Tenant paid more Additional Rent for any Lease Year than was due hereunder, and either Landlord agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s option, either grant Tenant a credit or pay to Tenant an amount equal to the amount of such overpayment against Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the time of payment by Tenant until the date such credit is applied or paid, as the case may be; provided , however , that, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the unapplied balance of such credit to Tenant, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment from Landlord.

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

 

(a)           Impositions .  Subject to Article 8 relating to permitted contests, Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Impositions before any fine, penalty, interest or cost (other than any opportunity cost as a result of a failure to take advantage of any discount for early payment) may be added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing authorities where feasible, and shall promptly, upon request, furnish to Landlord copies of official receipts or other reasonably satisfactory proof evidencing such payments.  If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and, in such event, shall pay, or cause to pay, such installments during the Term as the same become due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added thereto.  Landlord, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws, prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all tax returns and pay all taxes due in respect of Landlord’s net income, gross receipts, sales and use, single business, transaction privilege, rent, ad valorem, franchise taxes and taxes on its capital stock or other equity interests, and Tenant, at its expense, shall,

 

25



 

to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws and regulations, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by Government Agencies.  Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by or on behalf of Tenant, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Tenant.  Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports.  In the event Government Agencies classify any property covered by this Agreement as personal property, Tenant shall file, or cause to be filed, all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may legally so file.  Each party shall, to the extent it possesses the same, provide the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any property so classified as personal property.  Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns for property covered by this Agreement, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Tenant to file a protest.  All Impositions assessed against such personal property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty, subject to the provisions of Article 8 .

 

Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge; provided , however , that Landlord’s failure to give any such notice shall in no way diminish Tenant’s obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions.

(e)           Reimbursement for Additional Charges .  If Tenant pays or causes to be paid property taxes or similar or other Additional Charges attributable to periods after the end of the Term, whether upon expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement (other than termination by reason of an Event of Default), Tenant may, within a reasonable time after the end of the Term, provide Notice to Landlord of its estimate of such amounts.  Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for all payments of such taxes and other similar Additional Charges that are attributable to any period after the Term of this Agreement.

 

3.2               Late Payment of Rent, Etc.   If any installment of Minimum Rent, Additional Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional Charges which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord, on demand, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this Agreement, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional Charges to the Entity to which they would

 

27



 

otherwise be due.  If any payments due from Landlord to Tenant shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, on demand, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof.

ARTICLE 11

 

CONDEMNATION

 

11.1             Total Condemnation, Etc.   If either (a) the whole of any Property shall be taken by Condemnation or (b) a Condemnation of less than the whole of any Property renders any Property Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Property, and Tenant and Landlord shall seek the Award for their interests in the applicable Property as provided in Section 11.5 .

 

11.2             Partial Condemnation .  In the event of a Condemnation of less than the whole of any Property such that such Property is still suitable for its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, to the extent of the Award and any additional amounts disbursed by Landlord as hereinafter provided, commence (or cause to be commenced) promptly and continue diligently to restore (or cause to be restored) the untaken portion of the applicable Leased Improvements so that such Leased Improvements shall constitute a

 

46



 

complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as such Leased Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all Legal Requirements, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.2 .  If the cost of the repair or restoration of the affected Property exceeds the amount of the Award, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement).  In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s Notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided , however , in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(c) .  In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property and the entire Award shall be allocated as set forth in Section 11.5 .

 

Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall contribute to the cost of restoration that part of the Award necessary to complete such repair or restoration, together with severance and other damages awarded for the taken Leased Improvements and any deficiency Landlord has agreed to disburse, to Tenant regularly during the restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of such repair or restoration.  Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of such Award and other amounts on (a) the absence of any Event of Default, (b) its approval of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (c) general contractors’ estimates, (d) architect’s certificates, (e) conditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (f) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, (g), if Tenant has elected to advance deficiency funds pursuant to the preceding paragraph, Tenant depositing the amount thereof with Landlord and (h) such other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require.  Landlord’s obligation under this Section 11.2 to

 

47



 

disburse the Award and such other amounts shall be subject to (x) the collection thereof by Landlord and (y) the satisfaction of any applicable requirements of any Facility Mortgage, and the release of such Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee.  Tenant’s obligation to restore the Leased Property shall be subject to the release of the Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord.

 

11.3             Abatement of Rent .  Other than as specifically provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any Condemnation involving the Leased Property, or any portion thereof.  The provisions of this Article 11 shall be considered an express agreement governing any Condemnation involving the Leased Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.

 

11.4             Temporary Condemnation In the event of any temporary Condemnation of any Property or Tenant’s interest therein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall continue to pay (or cause to be paid), in the manner and on the terms herein specified, the full amount of the Rent.  Tenant shall continue to perform and observe (or cause to be performed and observed) all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Tenant to be performed and observed.  Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Tenant.  Tenant shall, promptly upon the termination of any such period of temporary Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore the affected Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, unless such period of temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term, in which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration.

 

11.5             Allocation of Award .  Except as provided in Section 11.4 and the second sentence of this Section 11.5 , the total Award shall be solely the property of and payable to Landlord.  Any portion of the Award made for the taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, the taking of Tenant’s

 

48



 

Personal Property, the taking of Capital Additions paid for by Tenant and Tenant’s removal and relocation expenses shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant (subject to the provisions of Section 11.2 ).  In any Condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own Award in conformity herewith, at its own expense.

(d)           should any material obligation of Tenant in respect of any Indebtedness for money borrowed or for any material property or services, or any guaranty relating thereto, be declared to be or become due and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof, or should there occur and be continuing with respect to any such Indebtedness any event of default under any instrument or agreement evidencing or securing the same, the effect of which is to

 

49



 

permit the holder or holders of such instrument or agreement or a trustee, agent or other representative on behalf of such holder or holders, to cause any such obligations to become due prior to its stated maturity; or

 

(e)           should an event of default by Tenant, any Guarantor or any Affiliated Person as to Tenant or any Guarantor occur and be continuing beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period under any of the Incidental Documents; or

 

(f)            should Tenant or any Guarantor generally not be paying its debts as they become due or should Tenant or any Guarantor make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

(h)           should Tenant or any Guarantor cause or institute any proceeding for its dissolution or termination; or

 

(i)            should the estate or interest of Tenant in the Leased Property or any part thereof be levied upon or attached in any proceeding and the same shall not be vacated or discharged within the later of (x) ninety (90) days after commencement thereof, unless the amount in dispute is less than $250,000, in which case Tenant shall give notice to Landlord of the dispute but Tenant may defend in any suitable way, and (y) two hundred seventy (270) days after receipt by Tenant of Notice thereof from Landlord (unless Tenant shall be contesting such lien or attachment in good faith in accordance with Article 8 ); or

 

(j)            should there occur any direct or indirect Change in Control of Tenant or any Guarantor; or

 

50



 

(k)           should a final unappealable determination be made by the applicable Government Agency that Tenant shall have failed to comply with applicable Medicare and/or Medicaid regulations in the operation of any Facility, as a result of which failure Tenant is declared ineligible to receive reimbursements under the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs for such Facility; or

 

(l)            should there occur an “Event of Default”, as defined therein, under the RMI Lease or either of the LTA GAMC Leases;

 

then, and in any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies available to it, may terminate this Agreement with respect to any or all of the Leased Property by giving Notice thereof to Tenant and upon the expiration of the time, if any, fixed in such Notice, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to all or the designated portion of the Leased Property and all rights of Tenant under this Agreement with respect thereto shall cease.  Landlord shall have and may exercise all rights and remedies available at law and in equity to Landlord as a result of Tenant’s breach of this Agreement.

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, enter upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and take possession of any and all of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, without liability for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the same at public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable Notice of the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Landlord or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, unless otherwise prohibited by law.  Unless otherwise provided by law and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable Notice shall be met if such Notice is given at least ten (10) days before the date of sale.  The proceeds from any such disposition, less all expenses incurred in connection with the taking of possession, holding and selling of such property (including, reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be applied as a credit against the indebtedness which is secured by any Security Agreement granted by Tenant.  Any surplus shall be paid to Tenant or as otherwise required by law and Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord, as Additional Charges, upon demand.

 

12.2             Remedies .  None of (a) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1 , (b) the repossession of the

 

51



 

Leased Property, or any portion thereof, (c) the failure of Landlord to relet the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, nor (d) the reletting of all or any of portion of the Leased Property, shall relieve Tenant of its liability and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such termination, repossession or reletting.  In the event of any such termination, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord all Rent due and payable with respect to the Leased Property, or terminated portion thereof, through and including the date of such termination.  Thereafter, Tenant, until the end of what would have been the Term of this Agreement in the absence of such termination, and whether or not the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, shall have been relet, shall be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord, as current damages, the Rent (Additional Rent to be reasonably calculated by Landlord based on historical Gross Revenues) and other charges which would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the Term had such termination not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, after deducting all reasonable expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys’ fees, advertising, expenses of employees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such reletting.  Tenant shall pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Minimum Rent would have been payable hereunder if this Agreement had not been so terminated with respect to such of the Leased Property.

 

At any time after such termination, whether or not Landlord shall have collected any such current damages, as liquidated final damages beyond the date of such termination, at Landlord’s election, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the present value (as reasonably determined by Landlord) of the excess, if any, of the Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder from the date of such termination (assuming that, for the purposes of this paragraph, annual payments by Tenant on account of Impositions and Additional Rent would be the same as payments required for the immediately preceding twelve calendar months, or if less than twelve calendar months have expired since the applicable Commencement Date for any Property, the payments required for such lesser period projected to an annual amount) for what would be the then unexpired term of this Agreement if the same remained in effect, over the fair market rental for the same period.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or

 

52



 

insolvency an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater than, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to above.

 

In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration and dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (a) relet the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option, be equal to, less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers advisable and necessary to relet the same, and (b) make such reasonable alterations, repairs and decorations in the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting the Leased Property; and the making of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid.  Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for any failure to relet all or any portion of the Leased Property, or, in the event that the Leased Property is relet, for failure to collect the rent under such reletting.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Leased Property, by reason of the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default hereunder.

 

12.3             Tenant’s Waiver .  IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.1 OR 12.2 , TENANT WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF SUMMARY PROCEEDINGS TO ENFORCE THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 12 , AND THE BENEFIT OF ANY LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN FORCE EXEMPTING PROPERTY FROM LIABILITY FOR RENT OR FOR DEBT.

 

12.4             Application of Funds .  Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this Agreement during the existence or continuance of any Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Event of Default) shall be applied to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State.  Any balance shall be paid to Tenant.

 

53



 

12.5             Landlord’s Right to Cure Tenant’s Default .  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord, after Notice to Tenant (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without waiving or releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to), at any time thereafter, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, for such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor.  No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant.  All reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Overdue Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.

 

ARTICLE 13

 

HOLDING OVER

 

Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rate equal to two (2) times the Minimum Rent and other charges herein provided (prorated on a daily basis).  Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages (direct or indirect) sustained by reason of any such holding over.  Otherwise, such holding over shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to the extent applicable.  Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express or implied, of Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE 14

 

LANDLORD DEFAULT

 

If Landlord shall default in the performance or observance of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement or any obligation of Landlord, if any, under any agreement affecting the Leased Property, the performance of which is not Tenant’s obligation pursuant to this Agreement, and any such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Tenant to Landlord and any applicable

 

54



 

Facility Mortgagee, or such additional period as may be reasonably required to correct the same, Tenant may declare the occurrence of a “ Landlord Default ” by a second Notice to Landlord and to such Facility Mortgagee.  Thereafter, Tenant may forthwith cure the same and, subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, invoice Landlord for costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) incurred by Tenant in curing the same, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) from the date Landlord receives Tenant’s invoice until paid, at the Overdue Rate.  Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Agreement for any default by Landlord hereunder and no right, for any such default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other charges due hereunder.

 

If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, no Landlord Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse determination thereof.  If Tenant and Landlord shall fail, in good faith, to resolve any such dispute within ten (10) days after Landlord’s Notice of dispute, either may submit the matter for resolution in accordance with Article 22 .

 

ARTICLE 15

 

PURCHASE RIGHTS

55



 

Article 15 shall be applied first to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may reasonably determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the applicable State and any balance shall be paid to Tenant.

 

ARTICLE 16

 

SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT

 

16.1             Subletting and Assignment .  Except as provided in Section 16.3 , Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent may be given or withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion), assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer this Agreement or sublease or permit the sublease (which term shall be deemed to include the granting of concessions, licenses and the like), of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or suffer or permit this Agreement or the leasehold estate created hereby or any other rights arising under this Agreement to be assigned, transferred, mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated or encumbered, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, or permit the use or operation of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, by anyone other than Tenant, any Manager approved by Landlord pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement or residents and patients of Tenant, or the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, to be offered or advertised for assignment or subletting.

 

For purposes of this Section 16.1 , an assignment of this Agreement shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any direct or indirect Change in Control of Tenant.

 

If this Agreement is assigned or if the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, is sublet (or occupied by anybody other than Tenant or any Manager, their respective employees or residents or patients of Tenant), Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 16.1 , the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement.

56



 

delivery to Landlord of (a) a Guaranty, which Guaranty shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which Guaranty shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; (b) a pledge of the stock, partnership, membership or other ownership interests of such assignee or other transferee to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which pledge shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which pledge shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; (c) a security agreement granting Landlord a security interest in all of such assignee’s or transferee’s right, title and interest in and to any personal property, intangibles and fixtures (other than accounts receivable) with respect to any Property which is subject to any such assignment or transfer to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which security agreement shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which security agreement shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; and (d) in the case of a sublease, an assignment which assigns all of such subtenant’s right, title and interest in such sublease to Landlord to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which assignment shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which assignment shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder.

 

No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder (unless Landlord and Tenant expressly otherwise agree that Tenant shall be released from all obligations hereunder), and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the prohibition set forth in this Section 16.1 .  No assignment, subletting or occupancy shall affect any Permitted Use.  Any subletting, assignment or other transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Agreement in contravention of this Section 16.1 shall be voidable at Landlord’s option.

57



 

Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor any Facility Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Agreement, if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease not consented to in writing by Landlord or by any previous prepayment of more than one (1) month’s rent, (iv) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the applicable Property, or any portion thereof, (v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for under the sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment, (vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of such subtenant unless actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any portion of the Leased Property; and (c) in the event that such subtenant receives a written Notice from Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such party may direct.  All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Facility Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn.  An original counterpart of each such sublease and assignment and assumption, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and (x) in the case of an assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep and perform all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the performance thereof and (y) in the case of either an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder.

16.4             Sublease Limitation .  Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, on any basis such that the rental to be paid by any sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on the net income or profits derived by the business activities of such sublessee, any other formula such that any portion of such sublease rental would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or

 

59



 

successor provision thereto or would otherwise disqualify Landlord for treatment as a real estate investment trust.

64

4



 

upon demand, at the stated or accelerated maturity thereof pursuant to any Amended Lease No. 1 Document, or otherwise, and that the Guaranteed Obligations which are performance obligations shall be fully performed at the times and in the manner such performance is required by the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents.  With respect to the Guaranteed Obligations which are monetary obligations, this guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collectability and is absolute and in no way conditional or contingent.  In case any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid when due and payable or performed at the time performance is required, Guarantor shall, in the case of monetary obligations, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice from Landlord, pay or cause to be paid to Landlord the amount thereof as is then due and payable and unpaid (including interest and other charges, if any, due thereon through the date of payment in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents) or, in the case of non-monetary obligations, perform or cause to be performed such obligations in accordance with the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents.

6.              Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations, Etc.   If Tenant is for any reason under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than because the same have been previously discharged in accordance with the terms of the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents), or if any other moneys included in the Guaranteed Obligations have become unrecoverable from Tenant by operation of law or for any other reason, including, without limitation, the invalidity or irregularity in whole or in part of any Guaranteed Obligation or of any Transaction Document or any limitation on the liability of Tenant thereunder not contemplated by the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever, the guarantees contained in this Guaranty shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall be binding upon Guarantor to the same extent as if Guarantor at all times had been the principal debtor on all such Guaranteed Obligations.

 

7.              Additional Guarantees .   This Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guarantee or other security for the

9.              No Impairment, Etc.   The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected or impaired by any assignment or transfer in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations without notice to Guarantor, or any waiver by Landlord or any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or by the holders of all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the performance or observance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents or any indulgence in or the extension of the time for payment by Tenant

to this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Guaranty (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”) or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as modified herein.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

 

There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are (a) only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration and (b) more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator.  The two party-nominated arbitrators shall jointly nominate the third and presiding arbitrator within fifteen days of the nomination of the second arbitrator.  If any arbitrator has not been nominated within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.  For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrators appointed by the parties to such Dispute may be affiliates or interested persons of such parties but the third arbitrator elected by the party arbitrators or by the AAA shall be unaffiliated with either party.

 

The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

In rendering an award or decision (the “ Arbitration Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Arbitration Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Arbitration Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not

 

10



 

be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

Except to the extent expressly provided by this Guaranty or as otherwise agreed between the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action by a holder of any party, award any portion of such party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

The Arbitration Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Arbitration Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  The party against which the Arbitration Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Arbitration Award or such other date as the Arbitration Award may provide.

 

16.                                  Modification of Agreement .   No modification or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor any consent to any departure by Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Landlord, and such modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the purpose for which given.  No notice to or demand on Guarantor in any case shall entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand

 

11



 

in the same, similar or other circumstances.  This Guaranty may not be amended except by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf of the party against whom enforcement of such amendment is sought.

 

17.                                  Waiver of Rights by Landlord .   Neither any failure nor any delay on Landlord’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

18.                                  Severability .   In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, but this Guaranty shall be reformed and construed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

 

19.                                  Entire Contract .   This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the place of any other instruments purporting to be an agreement of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

 

20.                                  Headings; Counterparts .   Headings in this Guaranty are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.  This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument, and in pleading or proving any provision of this Guaranty, it shall not be necessary to produce more than one of such counterparts.

 

21.                                  Remedies Cumulative .   No remedy herein conferred upon Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.

 

22.                                  NON-LIABILITY OF TRUSTEES .   THE DECLARATIONS OF TRUST ESTABLISHING CERTAIN ENTITIES COMPRISING THE LANDLORD, COPIES OF WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ALL AMENDMENTS THERETO (COLLECTIVELY, THE “ DECLARATIONS ”), ARE DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, PROVIDE THAT THE NAMES OF SUCH ENTITIES REFER TO THE TRUSTEES UNDER SUCH DECLARATIONS COLLECTIVELY AS TRUSTEES, BUT NOT INDIVIDUALLY OR PERSONALLY, AND THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF SUCH ENTITIES SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL

 

12



 

LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, SUCH ENTITIES.  ALL PERSONS DEALING WITH SUCH ENTITIES, IN ANY WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF SUCH ENTITIES FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION.

 

23.                                  Original Guarantees .   Guarantor and Landlord acknowledge and agree that this Guaranty amends and restates the Original Guarantees in their entirety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations and that this Guaranty shall govern the rights and obligations of Guarantor with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations from and after the date of this Guaranty.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Original Guarantees shall continue to govern the rights and obligations of Guarantor with respect to the “Guaranteed Obligations” (as defined in the Original Guarantees) prior to the date of this Guaranty and nothing contained in this Guaranty shall operate to release Guarantor from any such rights or obligations.

23



 

of such preceding Lease Year until the date that such statement is required to be delivered and, thereafter, such interest shall accrue at the Overdue Rate, until the amount of such difference shall be paid or otherwise discharged.  If the annual Additional Rent for such preceding Lease Year as shown in such statement is less than the amount previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant, provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord shall grant Tenant a credit against the Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date such credit is applied or paid, as the case may be.  If such credit cannot be made because the Term has expired prior to application in full thereof, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the unapplied balance of such credit to Tenant, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment by Landlord.

26



 

Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns for property covered by this Agreement, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Tenant to file a protest.  All Impositions assessed against such personal property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty, subject to the provisions of Article 8 .

 

Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge; provided , however , that Landlord’s failure to give any such notice shall in no way diminish Tenant’s obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions.

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

3.2               Late Payment of Rent, Etc.   If any installment of Minimum Rent, Additional Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional Charges which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord, on demand, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this Agreement, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional Charges to the Entity to which they would otherwise be due.  If any payments due from Landlord to Tenant shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, on demand, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof.

 

In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Charges when due, Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge, as Additional Charges, every fine, penalty, interest and cost which is added for non-payment or late payment of such items.  Landlord shall have all legal, equitable and contractual rights, powers and remedies provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise in the case of non-payment of the Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent.

41



 

proposes to be maintained with respect to each Property during the ensuing Fiscal Year and shall submit such proposal to Landlord on or before December 1 of the preceding Lease Year for Landlord’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.  In the event that Landlord shall fail to respond within thirty (30) days after receipt of such proposal, such proposal shall be deemed approved.

 

9.2               Waiver of Subrogation .  Landlord and Tenant agree that (insofar as and to the extent that such agreement may be effective without invalidating or making it impossible to secure insurance coverage from responsible insurance companies doing business in any State) with respect to any property loss which is covered by insurance then being carried by Landlord or Tenant, the party carrying such insurance and suffering said loss releases the others of and from any and all claims with respect to such loss; and they further agree that their respective insurance companies (and, if Landlord or Tenant shall self insure in accordance with the terms hereof, Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be) shall have no right of subrogation against the other on account thereof, even though extra premium may result therefrom.  In the event that any extra premium is payable by Tenant as a result of this provision, Landlord shall not be liable for reimbursement to Tenant for such extra premium.

 

9.3               Form Satisfactory, Etc.  All insurance policies and endorsements required pursuant to this Article 9 shall be fully paid for, nonassessable, and issued by reputable insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a general policy holder’s rating of no less than A in Best’s latest rating guide.  All property, business interruption, liability and flood insurance policies with respect to each Property shall include no deductible in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000).  At all times, all property, business interruption, liability and flood insurance policies, with the exception of worker’s compensation insurance coverage, shall name Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee as additional insureds, as their interests may appear.  All loss adjustments shall be payable as provided in Article 10 , except that losses under liability and worker’s compensation insurance policies shall be payable directly to the party entitled thereto.  Tenant shall cause all insurance premiums to be paid prior to the effective date of any policy, if required by such policy, or pursuant to an installment payment plan if permissible under such policy.  Not more than twenty five (25) days nor less than

 

42



 

five (5) days prior to the effective date of the policies or renewal policies (which, for renewal policies, shall be prior to the expiration of the existing policy), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of enforceable binders for such insurance coverage.  Tenant shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Landlord certificates evidencing such insurance coverage within five (5) days after the effective date of such policies, and thereafter Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the policies or renewal policies promptly upon receipt by Tenant.  All such policies shall provide Landlord (and any Facility Mortgagee if required by the same) thirty (30) days prior written notice of any material change or cancellation of such policy.  In the event Tenant shall fail to effect (or cause to be effected) such insurance as herein required, to pay (or cause to be paid) the premiums therefor or to deliver (or cause to be delivered) such policies or certificates to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee at the times required, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon Notice to Tenant, to acquire such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Charges, together with interest accrued thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date such payment is made until (but excluding) the date repaid.

 

9.4               No Separate Insurance; Self-Insurance .  Tenant shall not take (or permit any Person to take) out separate insurance, concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required by this Article 9 , or increase the amount of any existing insurance by securing an additional policy or additional policies, unless all parties having an insurable interest in the subject matter of such insurance, including 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 Agreement.  In the event Tenant shall take out any such separate insurance or increase any of the amounts of the then existing insurance, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice thereof.  Tenant shall not self-insure (or permit any Person to self-insure) with respect to any insurance required to be carried hereunder by Tenant.

 

9.5               Indemnification of Landlord .  Notwithstanding the existence of any insurance provided for herein and without regard to the policy limits of any such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), to

 

43



 

the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of the following, except to the extent caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct:  (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about any Property or portion thereof or adjoining sidewalks or rights of way, (b) any past, present or future use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance or repair by Tenant, any Manager or anyone claiming under any of them or Tenant’s Personal Property or any litigation, proceeding or claim by governmental entities or other third parties to which Landlord is made a party or participant relating to any Property or portion thereof or Tenant’s Personal Property or such use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance, or repair thereof including, failure to perform obligations (other than Condemnation proceedings) to which Landlord is made a party, (c) any Impositions that are the obligations of Tenant to pay pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, and (d) any failure on the part of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Agreement.  Tenant, at its expense, shall contest, resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord (and shall not be responsible for any duplicative attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord) or may compromise or otherwise dispose of the same, with Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).  The obligations of Tenant under this Section 9.5 are in addition to the obligations set forth in Section 4.4 and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

10.1             Insurance Proceeds .  Except as provided in the last clause of this sentence, all proceeds payable by reason of any loss or damage to any Property, or any portion thereof, and insured under any policy of insurance required by Article 9 (other than the proceeds of any business interruption insurance) shall be paid directly to Landlord (subject to the provisions of Section 10.2 ) and all loss adjustments with respect to losses payable to Landlord shall require the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided , however , that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all such proceeds less than or equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) shall be paid directly to Tenant and such

 

44



 

losses may be adjusted without Landlord’s consent.  If Tenant is required to reconstruct or repair any Property as provided herein, such proceeds shall be paid out by Landlord from time to time for the reasonable costs of reconstruction or repair of such Property necessitated by such damage or destruction, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2.4 .  Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any excess proceeds of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be paid to Tenant.  In the event that the provisions of Section 10.2.1 are applicable, the insurance proceeds shall be retained by the party entitled thereto pursuant to Section 10.2.1 .

 

10.2             Damage or Destruction .

 

10.2.1         Damage or Destruction of Leased Property .  If, during the Term, any Property shall be totally or partially destroyed and the Facility located thereon is thereby rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, either Landlord or Tenant may, by the giving of Notice thereof to the other, terminate this Agreement with respect to such affected Property, whereupon, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such affected Property and Landlord shall be entitled to retain the insurance proceeds payable on account of such damage.  In such event, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any deductible under the insurance policies covering such Facility, the amount of any uninsured loss and any difference between the replacement cost of the affected Property and the casualty insurance proceeds therefor.

 

10.2.2         Partial Damage or Destruction .  If, during the Term, any Property shall be totally or partially destroyed but the Facility is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, subject to Section 10.2.3 , promptly restore such Facility as provided in Section 10.2.4 .

45



 

deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant, given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided , however , in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(c) .  In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property by Notice to the other, whereupon, this Agreement shall so terminate and insurance proceeds shall be distributed as provided in Section 10.2.1 .  It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall be strictly liable and solely responsible for the amount of any deductible and shall, upon any insurable loss, pay over the amount of such deductible to Landlord at the time and in the manner herein provided for payment of the applicable proceeds to Landlord.

 

10.2.4         Disbursement of Proceeds .  In the event Tenant is required to restore any Property pursuant to Section 10.2 and this Agreement is not terminated as to such Property pursuant to this Article 10 , Tenant shall commence (or cause to be commenced) promptly and continue diligently to perform (or cause to be performed) the repair and restoration of such Property (hereinafter called the “ Work ”), so as to restore (or cause to be restored) the applicable Property in material compliance with all Legal Requirements and so that such Property shall be, to the extent practicable, substantially equivalent in value and general utility to its general utility and value immediately prior to such damage or destruction.  Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall advance the insurance proceeds and any additional amounts payable by Landlord pursuant to Section 10.2.3 or otherwise deposited with Landlord to Tenant regularly during the repair and restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of any such restoration and repair.  Any such advances shall be made not more than monthly within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant submits to Landlord a written requisition and substantiation therefor on AIA Forms G702 and G703 (or on such other form or forms as may be reasonably acceptable to Landlord).  Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of such insurance proceeds and other amounts on (a) the absence of any Event of Default, (b) its approval of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or

 

46



 

conditioned), (c) general contractors’ estimates, (d) architect’s certificates, (e) conditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (f) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, (g), if Tenant has elected to advance deficiency funds pursuant to Section 10.2.3 , Tenant depositing the amount thereof with Landlord and (h) such other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require.

 

Landlord’s obligation to disburse insurance proceeds under this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of such proceeds by any Facility Mortgagee to Landlord.

 

Tenant’s obligation to restore the applicable Property pursuant to this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of available insurance proceeds by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord or directly to Tenant and, in the event such proceeds are insufficient, Landlord electing to make such deficiency available therefor (and disbursement of such deficiency).

 

10.3             Damage Near End of Term .  Notwithstanding any provisions of Section 10.1 or 10.2 to the contrary, if damage to or destruction of any Property occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Term and if such damage or destruction cannot reasonably be expected to be fully repaired and restored prior to the date that is six (6) months prior to the end of the Term, the provisions of Section 10.2.1 shall apply as if such Property had been totally or partially destroyed and the Facility thereon rendered Unsuitable for its Permitted Use.

 

10.4             Tenant’s Property All insurance proceeds payable by reason of any loss of or damage to any of Tenant’s Personal Property shall be paid to Tenant and, to the extent necessary to repair or replace Tenant’s Personal Property in accordance with Section 10.5 , Tenant shall hold such proceeds in trust to pay the cost of repairing or replacing damaged Tenant’s Personal Property.

 

10.5             Restoration of Tenant’s Property .  If Tenant is required to restore any Property as hereinabove provided, Tenant shall either (a) restore all alterations and improvements made by Tenant and Tenant’s Personal Property, or (b) replace such alterations and improvements and Tenant’s Personal Property with improvements or items of the same or better quality and utility in the operation of such Property.

 

47



 

10.6             No Abatement of Rent .  This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any damage involving the Leased Property, or any portion thereof (provided that Landlord shall credit against such payments any amounts paid to Landlord as a consequence of such damage under any business interruption insurance obtained by Tenant hereunder).  The provisions of this Article 10 shall be considered an express agreement governing any cause of damage or destruction to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, laws, rules, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provide for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.

 

10.7             Waiver .  Tenant hereby waives any statutory rights of termination which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof.

 

ARTICLE 11

 

CONDEMNATION

 

11.1             Total Condemnation, Etc.   If either (a) the whole of any Property shall be taken by Condemnation or (b) a Condemnation of less than the whole of any Property renders any Property Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Property, and Tenant and Landlord shall seek the Award for their interests in the applicable Property as provided in Section 11.5 .

 

11.2             Partial Condemnation .  In the event of a Condemnation of less than the whole of any Property such that such Property is still suitable for its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, to the extent of the Award and any additional amounts disbursed by Landlord as hereinafter provided, commence (or cause to be commenced) promptly and continue diligently to restore (or cause to be restored) the untaken portion of the applicable Leased Improvements so that such Leased Improvements shall constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as such Leased Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all Legal Requirements, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.2 .  If the cost of the repair or restoration of the affected Property exceeds the amount of the Award, Tenant shall give

 

48



 

Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement).  In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s Notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided , however , in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(c) .  In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property and the entire Award shall be allocated as set forth in Section 11.5 .

 

Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall contribute to the cost of restoration that part of the Award necessary to complete such repair or restoration, together with severance and other damages awarded for the taken Leased Improvements and any deficiency Landlord has agreed to disburse, to Tenant regularly during the restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of such repair or restoration.  Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of such Award and other amounts on (a) the absence of any Event of Default, (b) its approval of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (c) general contractors’ estimates, (d) architect’s certificates, (e) conditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (f) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, (g), if Tenant has elected to advance deficiency funds pursuant to the preceding paragraph, Tenant depositing the amount thereof with Landlord and (h) such other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require.  Landlord’s obligation under this Section 11.2 to disburse the Award and such other amounts shall be subject to (x) the collection thereof by Landlord and (y) the satisfaction of any applicable requirements of any Facility Mortgage, and the release of such Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee.  Tenant’s obligation to restore the Leased Property shall be subject to the release of the Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord.

11.3             Abatement of Rent .  Other than as specifically provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any Condemnation involving the Leased Property, or any portion thereof.  The provisions of this Article 11 shall be considered an express agreement governing any Condemnation involving the Leased Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.

 

11.4             Temporary Condemnation In the event of any temporary Condemnation of any Property or Tenant’s interest therein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall continue to pay (or cause to be paid), in the manner and on the terms herein specified, the full amount of the Rent.  Tenant shall continue to perform and observe (or cause to be performed and observed) all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Tenant to be performed and observed.  Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Tenant.  Tenant shall, promptly upon the termination of any such period of temporary Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore the affected Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, unless such period of temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term, in which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration.

 

11.5             Allocation of Award .  Except as provided in Section 11.4 and the second sentence of this Section 11.5 , the total Award shall be solely the property of and payable to Landlord.  Any portion of the Award made for the taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, the taking of Tenant’s Personal Property, the taking of Capital Additions paid for by Tenant and Tenant’s removal and relocation expenses shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant (subject to the provisions of Section 11.2 ).  In any Condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own Award in conformity herewith, at its own expense.

then, and in any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies available to it, may terminate this Agreement with respect to any or all of the Leased Property by giving Notice thereof to Tenant and upon the expiration of the time, if any, fixed in such Notice, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to all or the designated portion of the Leased Property and all rights of Tenant under this Agreement with respect thereto shall cease.  Landlord shall have and may exercise all rights and remedies available at law and in equity to Landlord as a result of Tenant’s breach of this Agreement.

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, enter upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and take possession of any and all of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, without liability for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the same at public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable Notice of the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Landlord or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, unless otherwise prohibited by law.  Unless otherwise provided by law and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable Notice shall be met if such Notice is given at least ten (10) days before the date of sale.  The proceeds from any such disposition, less all expenses incurred in connection with the taking of possession, holding and selling of such property (including, reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be applied as a credit against the indebtedness which is secured by any Security Agreement granted by Tenant.  Any surplus shall be paid to Tenant or as otherwise required by law and Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord, as Additional Charges, upon demand.

53



 

repossession or reletting.  In the event of any such termination, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord all Rent due and payable with respect to the Leased Property, or terminated portion thereof, through and including the date of such termination.  Thereafter, Tenant, until the end of what would have been the Term of this Agreement in the absence of such termination, and whether or not the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, shall have been relet, shall be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord, as current damages, the Rent (Additional Rent to be reasonably calculated by Landlord based on historical Gross Revenues) and other charges which would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the Term had such termination not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, after deducting all reasonable expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys’ fees, advertising, expenses of employees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such reletting.  Tenant shall pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Minimum Rent would have been payable hereunder if this Agreement had not been so terminated with respect to such of the Leased Property.

 

At any time after such termination, whether or not Landlord shall have collected any such current damages, as liquidated final damages beyond the date of such termination, at Landlord’s election, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the present value (as reasonably determined by Landlord) of the excess, if any, of the Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder from the date of such termination (assuming that, for the purposes of this paragraph, annual payments by Tenant on account of Impositions and Additional Rent would be the same as payments required for the immediately preceding twelve calendar months, or if less than twelve calendar months have expired since the applicable Commencement Date for any Property, the payments required for such lesser period projected to an annual amount) for what would be the then unexpired term of this Agreement if the same remained in effect, over the fair market rental for the same period.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater than, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to above.

In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration and dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (a) relet the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option, be equal to, less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers advisable and necessary to relet the same, and (b) make such reasonable alterations, repairs and decorations in the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting the Leased Property; and the making of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid.  Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for any failure to relet all or any portion of the Leased Property, or, in the event that the Leased Property is relet, for failure to collect the rent under such reletting.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Leased Property, by reason of the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default hereunder.

 

12.3             Tenant’s Waiver .  IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.1 OR 12.2 , TENANT WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF SUMMARY PROCEEDINGS TO ENFORCE THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 12 , AND THE BENEFIT OF ANY LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN FORCE EXEMPTING PROPERTY FROM LIABILITY FOR RENT OR FOR DEBT.

 

12.4             Application of Funds .  Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this Agreement during the existence or continuance of any Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Event of Default) shall be applied to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State.  Any balance shall be paid to Tenant.

 

12.5             Landlord’s Right to Cure Tenant’s Default .  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord, after Notice to Tenant (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without waiving or

 

55



 

releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to), at any time thereafter, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, for such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor.  No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant.  All reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Overdue Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.

 

12.6        Trade Names .  If this Agreement is terminated with respect to either or both of the Rehabilitation Hospital Properties for any reason, Landlord shall, upon the request of Tenant, cause the name of the business conducted upon such Property to be changed to a name other than a Facility Trade Name or any approximation or abbreviation thereof and sufficiently dissimilar to such name as to be unlikely to cause confusion with such name; provided , however , that Tenant shall not thereafter use a Facility Trade Name in the same market in which such Property is located in connection with any business that competes with such Property or the Facility located thereon.

LANDLORD DEFAULT

 

If Landlord shall default in the performance or observance of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement or any obligation of Landlord, if any, under any agreement affecting the Leased Property, the performance of which is not Tenant’s obligation pursuant to this Agreement, and any such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Tenant to Landlord and any applicable Facility Mortgagee, or such additional period as may be reasonably required to correct the same, Tenant may declare the occurrence of a “ Landlord Default ” by a second Notice to Landlord and to such Facility Mortgagee.  Thereafter, Tenant may forthwith cure the same and, subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, invoice Landlord for costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) incurred by Tenant in curing the same, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) from the date Landlord receives Tenant’s invoice until paid, at the Overdue Rate.  Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Agreement for any default by Landlord hereunder and no right, for any such default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other charges due hereunder.

 

If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, no Landlord Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse determination thereof.  If Tenant and Landlord shall fail, in good faith, to resolve any such dispute within ten (10) days after Landlord’s Notice of dispute, either may submit the matter for resolution in accordance with Article 22 .

For purposes of this Section 16.1 , an assignment of this Agreement shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any direct or indirect Change in Control of any or all of the Entities comprising Tenant.

 

If this Agreement is assigned or if the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, is sublet (or occupied by anybody other

 

58



 

than Tenant or any Manager, their respective employees or residents or patients of Tenant), Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 16.1 , the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement.

 

Any assignment or transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Agreement shall be subject to such assignee’s or transferee’s delivery to Landlord of (a) a Guaranty, which Guaranty shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which Guaranty shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; (b) a pledge of the stock, partnership, membership or other ownership interests of such assignee or other transferee to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which pledge shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which pledge shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; (c) a security agreement granting Landlord a security interest in all of such assignee’s or transferee’s right, title and interest in and to any personal property, intangibles and fixtures (other than accounts receivable) with respect to any Property which is subject to any such assignment or transfer to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which security agreement shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which security agreement shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; and (d) in the case of a sublease, an assignment which assigns all of such subtenant’s right, title and interest in such sublease to Landlord to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which assignment shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which assignment shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder.

 

No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder (unless Landlord and Tenant expressly otherwise agree that Tenant shall be released from all obligations hereunder), and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the prohibition set forth in this Section 16.1 .  No assignment, subletting or occupancy shall

16.3             Permitted Sublease .   Notwithstanding the foregoing, including, without limitation, Section 16.2 , but subject to the provisions of Section 16.4 and any other express conditions or limitations set forth herein, Tenant may, in each instance after Notice to Landlord, (a) enter into third party residency agreements with respect to the units located at the Senior Housing Properties, (b) sublease space at any Property for laundry, commissary or child care purposes or other concessions in furtherance of the Permitted Use, so long as such subleases will not reduce the number of units at any Facility, will not violate or affect any Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement, and Tenant shall provide such additional insurance coverage applicable to the activities to be conducted in such subleased space as Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee may reasonably require, and (c) enter into one or more subleases with Affiliated Persons of Tenant with respect to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, provided Tenant gives Landlord Notice of the material terms and conditions thereof.  Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that if Tenant enters into one (1) or more subleases with Affiliated Persons of Tenant with respect to any Property, or any portion thereof, in accordance with the preceding clause (c), Tenant may allocate the rent and other charges with respect to the affected Property in any reasonable manner; provided , however , that such allocation shall not affect Tenant’s (nor any Guarantor’s) liability for the Rent and other obligations of Tenant under this Agreement; and, provided , further , that Tenant shall give Landlord prompt written notice of any allocation or reallocation of the rent and

 

61



 

other charges with respect to the affected Property and, in any event, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of the amount of such allocations at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date that Landlord or Senior Housing Properties Trust is required to file any tax returns in any State where such affected Property is located.

 

16.4             Sublease Limitation .  Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, on any basis such that the rental to be paid by any sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on the net income or profits derived by the business activities of such sublessee, any other formula such that any portion of such sublease rental would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto or would otherwise disqualify Landlord for treatment as a real estate investment trust.

23.1             Limitation on Payment of Rent .  All agreements between Landlord and Tenant herein are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of Rent, or otherwise, shall the Rent or any other amounts payable to Landlord under this Agreement exceed the maximum permissible under Applicable Laws, the benefit of which may be asserted by Tenant as a defense, and if, from any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Agreement, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, or if from any circumstances Landlord should ever receive as fulfillment of such provision such an excessive amount, then, ipso facto , the amount which would be excessive shall be applied to the reduction of the installment(s) of Minimum Rent next due and not to the payment of such excessive amount.  This provision shall control every other provision of this Agreement and any other agreements between Landlord and Tenant.

 

23.2             No Waiver .  No failure by Landlord or Tenant to insist upon the strict performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial payment of Rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any such term.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, no waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach.

 

23.3             Remedies Cumulative To the maximum extent permitted by law, each legal, equitable or contractual right, power and remedy of Landlord or Tenant, now or hereafter provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord or Tenant (as applicable) of any one or more of such rights, powers and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of such other rights, powers and remedies.

 

23.4             Severability .  Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision of this Agreement held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or ineffective shall not impair, invalidate or nullify the remainder of this

 

73

23.5             Acceptance of Surrender .  No surrender to Landlord of this Agreement or of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.

 

23.6             No Merger of Title .  It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that there shall be no merger of this Agreement or of the leasehold estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own or hold, directly or indirectly this Agreement or the leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord’s interest in the Leased Property.

23.8             Quiet Enjoyment .  Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Leased Property for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Encumbrance permitted under Article 20 or otherwise permitted to be created by Landlord hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, provided the same do not materially interfere with Tenant’s ability to operate any Facility and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing by Tenant.  Except as otherwise

 

74



 

provided in this Agreement, no failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant any right to cancel or terminate this Agreement or abate, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other sum payable under this Agreement, or to fail to perform any other obligation of Tenant hereunder.

 

23.9             No Recordation .   Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Agreement.

6.                                        Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations, Etc.   If Tenant is for any reason under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than because the same have been previously discharged in accordance with the terms of the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents), or if any other moneys included in the Guaranteed Obligations have become unrecoverable from Tenant by operation of law or for any other reason, including, without limitation, the invalidity or irregularity in

 

5



 

whole or in part of any Guaranteed Obligation or of any Transaction Document or any limitation on the liability of Tenant thereunder not contemplated by the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever, the guarantees contained in this Guaranty shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall be binding upon Guarantor to the same extent as if Guarantor at all times had been the principal debtor on all such Guaranteed Obligations.

 

7.                                        Additional Guarantees .   This Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guarantee or other security for the Guaranteed Obligations and it shall not be prejudiced or rendered unenforceable by the invalidity of any such other guarantee or security or by any waiver, amendment, release or modification thereof.

 

8.                                        Consents and Waivers, Etc.   Guarantor hereby acknowledges receipt of correct and complete copies of each of the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents, and consents to all of the terms and provisions thereof, as the same may be from time to time hereafter amended or changed in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and, except as otherwise provided herein, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, waives (a) presentment, demand for payment, and protest of nonpayment, of any principal of or interest on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and of diligence, presentment, demand and protest, (c) notice of any default hereunder and any default, breach or nonperformance or Event of Default under any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents, (d) notice of the terms, time and place of any private or public sale of any collateral held as security for the Guaranteed Obligations, (e) demand for performance or observance of, and any enforcement of any provision of, or any pursuit or exhaustion of rights or remedies against Tenant or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, under or pursuant to the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents, or any agreement directly or indirectly relating thereto and any requirements of diligence or promptness on the part of the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations in connection therewith, and (f) to the extent Guarantor lawfully may do so, any and all demands and notices of every kind and description with respect to the foregoing or which may be required to be given by any statute or rule of law and any defense of any kind which it may now or hereafter have with respect to this Guaranty, or any of the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents or the Guaranteed Obligations (other than that the same have been

 

6



 

discharged in accordance with the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents).

 

9.                                        No Impairment, Etc.   The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected or impaired by any assignment or transfer in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations without notice to Guarantor, or any waiver by Landlord or any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or by the holders of all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the performance or observance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents or any indulgence in or the extension of the time for payment by Tenant or any other guarantor of any amounts payable under or in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents or any other instrument or agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or of the time for performance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any other obligations under or arising out of any of the foregoing or the extension or renewal thereof (except that with respect to any extension of time for payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations granted by Landlord or any other holder of such Guaranteed Obligations to Tenant, Guarantor’s obligations to pay or perform such Guaranteed Obligation shall be subject to the same extension of time for performance), or the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement or obligation of Tenant or any other guarantor set forth in any of the foregoing, or the voluntary or involuntary sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or any other guarantor or insolvency, bankruptcy, or other similar proceedings affecting Tenant or any other guarantor or any assets of Tenant or any such other guarantor, or the release or discharge of Tenant or any such other guarantor from the performance or observance of any agreement, covenant, term or condition contained in any of the foregoing without the consent of the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations by operation of law, or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.

 

10.                                  Reimbursement, Subrogation, Etc.   Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that it will not enforce or otherwise exercise any rights of reimbursement, subrogation, contribution or other similar rights against Tenant (or any other person against whom Landlord may proceed) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations prior to the payment in full of all amounts owing with respect to the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents, and until all indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord shall have been paid in full, Guarantor shall not have any right of subrogation,

 

7



 

and Guarantor waives any defense it may have based upon any election of remedies by Landlord which destroys its subrogation rights or its rights to proceed against Tenant for reimbursement, including, without limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor may suffer by reason of any rights, powers or remedies of Tenant in connection with any anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging the indebtedness to Landlord.  Until all obligations of Tenant pursuant to the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents shall have been paid and satisfied in full, Guarantor further waives any right to enforce any remedy which Landlord now has or may in the future have against Tenant, any other guarantor or any other person and any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security whatsoever now or in the future held by Landlord.

 

11.                                  Defeasance .   This Guaranty shall terminate at such time as the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full and all other obligations of Guarantor to Landlord under this Guaranty have been satisfied in full; provided , however , if at any time, all or any part of any payment applied on account of the Guaranteed Obligations is or must be rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Tenant), this Guaranty, to the extent such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, shall be deemed to have continued in existence notwithstanding any such termination.

(d)                                  By notice given as herein provided, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns shall have the right from time to time and at any time during the term of this Guaranty to change their respective addresses effective upon receipt by the other parties of such notice and each shall have the right to specify as its address any other address within the United States of America.

 

13.                                  Successors and Assigns .   Whenever in this Guaranty any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party, including without limitation the holders, from time to time, of the Guaranteed Obligations; and all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements by or on behalf of Guarantor which are contained in this Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Landlord’s successors and assigns, including without limitation said holders, whether so expressed or not.

 

14.                                  Applicable Law .   Except as to matters regarding the internal affairs of Landlord and issues of or limitations on any personal liability of the shareholders and trustees of Landlord for obligations of Landlord, as to which the laws of the state of Landlord’s organization shall govern, this Guaranty shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts applicable to contracts between residents of Massachusetts which are to be performed entirely within Massachusetts, regardless of (a) where any such instrument is executed or delivered; or (b) where any payment or other performance required by any such instrument is made or required to be made; or (c) where any breach of any provision of any such instrument occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (d) where any action or other proceeding

is instituted or pending; or (e) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (f) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than The Commonwealth of Massachusetts; or (g) any combination of the foregoing.

 

15.                                  Disputes .  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Guaranty (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”) or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as modified herein.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

 

There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are (a) only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration and (b) more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator.  The two party-nominated arbitrators shall jointly nominate the third and presiding arbitrator within fifteen days of the nomination of the second arbitrator.  If any arbitrator has not been nominated within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.  For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrators appointed by the parties to such Dispute may be affiliates or interested persons of such parties but the third arbitrator elected by the party arbitrators or by the AAA shall be unaffiliated with either party.

 

The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

10



 

There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

In rendering an award or decision (the “ Arbitration Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Arbitration Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Arbitration Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

Except to the extent expressly provided by this Guaranty or as otherwise agreed between the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action by a holder of any party, award any portion of such party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

The Arbitration Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Arbitration Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  The party against which the Arbitration Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the thirtieth day following the

 

11



 

date of the Arbitration Award or such other date as the Arbitration Award may provide.

 

16.                                  Modification of Agreement .   No modification or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor any consent to any departure by Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Landlord, and such modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the purpose for which given.  No notice to or demand on Guarantor in any case shall entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.  This Guaranty may not be amended except by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf of the party against whom enforcement of such amendment is sought.

 

17.                                  Waiver of Rights by Landlord .   Neither any failure nor any delay on Landlord’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

18.                                  Severability .   In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, but this Guaranty shall be reformed and construed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

 

19.                                  Entire Contract .   This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the place of any other instruments purporting to be an agreement of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

 

20.                                  Headings; Counterparts .   Headings in this Guaranty are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.  This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument, and in pleading or proving any provision of this Guaranty, it shall not be necessary to produce more than one of such counterparts.

 

21.                                  Remedies Cumulative .   No remedy herein conferred upon Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or

 

12



 

hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.

 

22.                                  NON-LIABILITY OF TRUSTEES .   THE DECLARATIONS OF TRUST ESTABLISHING CERTAIN ENTITIES COMPRISING THE LANDLORD, COPIES OF WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ALL AMENDMENTS THERETO (COLLECTIVELY, THE “ DECLARATIONS ”), ARE DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, PROVIDE THAT THE NAMES OF SUCH ENTITIES REFER TO THE TRUSTEES UNDER SUCH DECLARATIONS COLLECTIVELY AS TRUSTEES, BUT NOT INDIVIDUALLY OR PERSONALLY, AND THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF SUCH ENTITIES SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, SUCH ENTITIES.  ALL PERSONS DEALING WITH SUCH ENTITIES, IN ANY WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF SUCH ENTITIES FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION.

 

23.                                  Original Guarantees .   Guarantor and Landlord acknowledge and agree that this Guaranty amends and restates the Original Guarantees in their entirety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations and that this Guaranty shall govern the rights and obligations of Guarantor with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations from and after the date of this Guaranty.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Original Guarantees shall continue to govern the rights and obligations of Guarantor with respect to the “Guaranteed Obligations” (as defined in the Original Guarantees) prior to the date of this Guaranty and nothing contained in this Guaranty shall operate to release Guarantor from any such rights or obligations.

3.1.2           Additional Rent .

 

(a)           Amount .  Tenant shall pay additional rent (“ Additional Rent ”) with respect to each Lease Year during the Term in an amount, not less than zero, equal to four percent (4%) of Excess Gross Revenues at each Property.

 

(b)           Quarterly Installments .  Installments of Additional Rent for each Lease Year during the Term, or portion thereof, shall be calculated and paid quarterly in arrears.  Quarterly payments of Additional Rent for each Property shall be calculated based on Gross Revenues for such quarter during the preceding year and shall be due and payable and delivered to Landlord on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, or portion thereof, thereafter occurring during the Term, together with an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the calculation of Additional Rent due and payable for such quarter.

 

(c)           Reconciliation of Additional Rent .  In addition, within seventy-five (75) days after the end of each Lease Year (or any portion thereof occurring during the Term), Tenant shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Landlord (i) a financial report setting forth the Gross Revenues for each Property for such preceding Lease Year, or portion thereof, together with an Officer’s Certificate from Tenant’s chief financial or accounting officer certifying that such report is true and correct, and (ii) a statement showing Tenant’s calculation of Additional Rent due for such preceding Lease Year, or portion thereof, based on the Gross Revenues set forth in such financial report, together with an Officer’s Certificate from Tenant’s chief financial or accounting officer certifying that such statement is true and correct.

 

If the annual Additional Rent for such preceding Lease Year as set forth in Tenant’s statement thereof exceeds the amount previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant, Tenant shall pay such excess to Landlord at such time as the statement is delivered, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the close of such preceding Lease Year until the date that such statement is required to be delivered and, thereafter, such interest shall accrue at the Overdue Rate, until the amount of such difference shall be paid or otherwise discharged.  If the annual Additional Rent for such preceding Lease Year as shown in such statement is less than the amount previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant, provided

 

22



 

that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord shall grant Tenant a credit against the Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date such credit is applied or paid, as the case may be.  If such credit cannot be made because the Term has expired prior to application in full thereof, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the unapplied balance of such credit to Tenant, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment by Landlord.

23



 

aggregate amount of all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any such audit.  If any such audit discloses that Tenant paid more Additional Rent for any Lease Year than was due hereunder, and either Landlord agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s option, either grant Tenant a credit or pay to Tenant an amount equal to the amount of such overpayment against Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the time of payment by Tenant until the date such credit is applied or paid, as the case may be; provided , however , that, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the unapplied balance of such credit to Tenant, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment from Landlord.  Any dispute concerning the correctness of an audit shall be settled by arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Article 22 .

date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty, subject to the provisions of Article 8 .

 

Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge; provided , however , that Landlord’s failure to give any such notice shall in no way diminish Tenant’s obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions.

3.2               Late Payment of Rent, Etc.   If any installment of Minimum Rent, Additional Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional Charges which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord, on demand, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly to

 

26



 

Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this Agreement, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional Charges to the Entity to which they would otherwise be due.  If any payments due from Landlord to Tenant shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, on demand, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof.

 

In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Charges when due, Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge, as Additional Charges, every fine, penalty, interest and cost which is added for non-payment or late payment of such items.  Landlord shall have all legal, equitable and contractual rights, powers and remedies provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise in the case of non-payment of the Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent.

11.4             Temporary Condemnation In the event of any temporary Condemnation of any Property or Tenant’s interest therein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall continue to pay (or cause to be paid), in the manner and on the terms herein specified, the full amount of the Rent.  Tenant shall continue to perform and observe (or cause to be performed and observed) all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Tenant to be performed and observed.  Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Tenant.  Tenant shall, promptly upon the termination of any such period of temporary Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore the affected Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, unless such period of temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term, in

 

47



 

which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration.

 

11.5             Allocation of Award .  Except as provided in Section 11.4 and the second sentence of this Section 11.5 , the total Award shall be solely the property of and payable to Landlord.  Any portion of the Award made for the taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, the taking of Tenant’s Personal Property, the taking of Capital Additions paid for by Tenant and Tenant’s removal and relocation expenses shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant (subject to the provisions of Section 11.2 ).  In any Condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own Award in conformity herewith, at its own expense.

48



 

(d)            should any material obligation of Tenant in respect of any Indebtedness for money borrowed or for any material property or services, or any guaranty relating thereto, be declared to be or become due and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof, or should there occur and be continuing with respect to any such Indebtedness any event of default under any instrument or agreement evidencing or securing the same, the effect of which is to permit the holder or holders of such instrument or agreement or a trustee, agent or other representative on behalf of such holder or holders, to cause any such obligations to become due prior to its stated maturity; or

 

(e)            should an event of default by Tenant, any Guarantor or any Affiliated Person as to Tenant or any Guarantor occur and be continuing beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period under any of the Incidental Documents; or

49



 

give notice to Landlord of the dispute but Tenant may defend in any suitable way, and (y) two hundred seventy (270) days after receipt by Tenant of Notice thereof from Landlord (unless Tenant shall be contesting such lien or attachment in good faith in accordance with Article 8 ); or

 

(j)             should there occur any direct or indirect Change in Control of Tenant or any Guarantor; or

 

(k)            should a final unappealable determination be made by the applicable Government Agency that Tenant shall have failed to comply with applicable Medicare and/or Medicaid regulations in the operation of any Facility, as a result of which failure Tenant is declared ineligible to receive reimbursements under the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs for such Facility;

 

then, and in any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies available to it, may terminate this Agreement with respect to any or all of the Leased Property by giving Notice thereof to Tenant and upon the expiration of the time, if any, fixed in such Notice, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to all or the designated portion of the Leased Property and all rights of Tenant under this Agreement with respect thereto shall cease.  Landlord shall have and may exercise all rights and remedies available at law and in equity to Landlord as a result of Tenant’s breach of this Agreement.

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, enter upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and take possession of any and all of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, without liability for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the same at public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable Notice of the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Landlord or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, unless otherwise prohibited by law.  Unless otherwise provided by law and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable Notice shall be met if such Notice is given at least ten (10) days before the date of sale.  The proceeds from any such disposition, less all expenses incurred in connection with the taking of possession, holding and selling of such property (including, reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be applied as a credit against the indebtedness which is secured by any Security Agreement granted by Tenant.  Any surplus shall be paid to

 

50



 

Tenant or as otherwise required by law and Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord, as Additional Charges, upon demand.

 

12.2              Remedies .  None of (a) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1 , (b) the repossession of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, (c) the failure of Landlord to relet the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, nor (d) the reletting of all or any of portion of the Leased Property, shall relieve Tenant of its liability and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such termination, repossession or reletting.  In the event of any such termination, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord all Rent due and payable with respect to the Leased Property, or terminated portion thereof, through and including the date of such termination.  Thereafter, Tenant, until the end of what would have been the Term of this Agreement in the absence of such termination, and whether or not the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, shall have been relet, shall be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord, as current damages, the Rent (Additional Rent to be reasonably calculated by Landlord based on historical Gross Revenues) and other charges which would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the Term had such termination not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, after deducting all reasonable expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys’ fees, advertising, expenses of employees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such reletting.  Tenant shall pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Minimum Rent would have been payable hereunder if this Agreement had not been so terminated with respect to such of the Leased Property.

 

At any time after such termination, whether or not Landlord shall have collected any such current damages, as liquidated final damages beyond the date of such termination, at Landlord’s election, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the present value (as reasonably determined by Landlord) of the excess, if any, of the Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder from the date of such termination (assuming that, for the purposes of this paragraph, annual payments by Tenant on account of Impositions and Additional Rent would be the same as payments required for the immediately preceding twelve calendar months, or if less than twelve calendar months have expired since the applicable Commencement Date for any Property, the payments required for such lesser period projected

 

51



 

to an annual amount) for what would be the then unexpired term of this Agreement if the same remained in effect, over the fair market rental for the same period.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater than, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to above.

 

In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration and dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (a) relet the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option, be equal to, less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers advisable and necessary to relet the same, and (b) make such reasonable alterations, repairs and decorations in the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting the Leased Property; and the making of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid.  Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for any failure to relet all or any portion of the Leased Property, or, in the event that the Leased Property is relet, for failure to collect the rent under such reletting.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Leased Property, by reason of the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default hereunder.

 

12.3              Tenant’s Waiver .  IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.1 OR 12.2 , TENANT WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF SUMMARY PROCEEDINGS TO ENFORCE THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 12 , AND THE BENEFIT OF ANY LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN FORCE EXEMPTING PROPERTY FROM LIABILITY FOR RENT OR FOR DEBT.

 

12.4              Application of Funds .  Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this Agreement during the existence or continuance of any Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Event of Default) shall be applied to Tenant’s current

 

52



 

and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State.  Any balance shall be paid to Tenant.

 

12.5              Landlord’s Right to Cure Tenant’s Default .  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord, after Notice to Tenant (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without waiving or releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to), at any time thereafter, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, for such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor.  No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant.  All reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Overdue Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.

 

ARTICLE 13

 

HOLDING OVER

 

Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rate equal to two (2) times the Minimum Rent and other charges herein provided (prorated on a daily basis).  Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages (direct or indirect) sustained by reason of any such holding over.  Otherwise, such holding over shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to the extent applicable.  Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express or implied, of Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE 14

 

LANDLORD DEFAULT

 

If Landlord shall default in the performance or observance of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement or any obligation of Landlord, if any, under any

If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, no Landlord Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse determination thereof.  If Tenant and Landlord shall fail, in good faith, to resolve any such dispute within ten (10) days after Landlord’s Notice of dispute, either may submit the matter for resolution in accordance with Article 22 .

 

ARTICLE 15

54



 

agrees that nothing contained in this Article 15 shall diminish, impair or otherwise modify Landlord’s rights under the Security Agreement and that any amounts paid by Landlord in order to purchase Tenant’s Personal Property in accordance with this Article 15 shall be applied first to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may reasonably determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the applicable State and any balance shall be paid to Tenant.

 

ARTICLE 16

For purposes of this Section 16.1 , an assignment of this Agreement shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any direct or indirect Change in Control of Tenant.

 

If this Agreement is assigned or if the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, is sublet (or occupied by anybody other than Tenant or any Manager, their respective employees or residents or patients of Tenant), Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 16.1 , the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its

 

55



 

covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement.

 

No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder (unless Landlord and Tenant expressly otherwise agree that Tenant shall be released from all obligations hereunder), and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the prohibition set forth in this Section 16.1 .  No assignment, subletting or occupancy shall affect any Permitted Use.  Any subletting, assignment or other transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Agreement in contravention of this Section 16.1 shall be voidable at Landlord’s option.

56



 

written Notice from Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such party may direct.  All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Facility Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn.  An original counterpart of each such sublease and assignment and assumption, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and (x) in the case of an assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep and perform all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the performance thereof and (y) in the case of either an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder.

 

The provisions of this Section 16.2 shall not be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1 .

 

16.3              Permitted Sublease .   Notwithstanding the foregoing, including, without limitation, Section 16.2 , but subject to the provisions of Section 16.4 and any other express conditions or limitations set forth herein, Tenant may, in each instance after Notice to Landlord, (a) enter into third party residency agreements with respect to the units located at the Facilities, (b) sublease space at any Property for laundry, commissary or child care purposes or other concessions in furtherance of the Permitted Use, so long as such subleases will not reduce the number of units at any Facility, will not violate or affect any Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement, and Tenant shall provide such additional insurance coverage applicable to the activities to be conducted in such subleased space as Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee may reasonably require, and (c) enter into one or more subleases with Affiliated Persons of Tenant with respect to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, provided Tenant gives Landlord Notice of the material terms and conditions thereof.  Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree

 

57



 

that if Tenant enters into one (1) or more subleases with Affiliated Persons of Tenant with respect to any Property, or any portion thereof, in accordance with the preceding clause (c), Tenant may allocate the rent and other charges with respect to the affected Property in any reasonable manner; provided , however , that such allocation shall not affect Tenant’s (nor any Guarantor’s) liability for the Rent and other obligations of Tenant under this Agreement; and, provided , further , that Tenant shall give Landlord prompt written notice of any allocation or reallocation of the rent and other charges with respect to the affected Property and, in any event, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of the amount of such allocations at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date that Landlord or Senior Housing Properties Trust is required to file any tax returns in any State where such affected Property is located.

 

16.4              Sublease Limitation .  Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, on any basis such that the rental to be paid by any sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on the net income or profits derived by the business activities of such sublessee, any other formula such that any portion of such sublease rental would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto or would otherwise disqualify Landlord for treatment as a real estate investment trust.

of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.

 

23.6              No Merger of Title .  It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that there shall be no merger of this Agreement or of the leasehold estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own or hold, directly or indirectly this Agreement or the leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord’s interest in the Leased Property.

20.2       Subordination of Lease .  This Agreement and any and all rights of Tenant hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate to all mortgages and deeds of trust, which may now or hereafter affect the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or any improvements thereon and/or any of such leases, whether or not such mortgages or deeds of trust shall also cover other lands and/or buildings and/or leases, to each and every advance made or hereafter to be made under such mortgages and deeds of trust, and to all renewals, modifications, replacements and extensions of such leases and such mortgages and deeds of trust and all consolidations of such mortgages and deeds of trust.  This section shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required.  In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any instrument that Landlord, the lessor under any such lease or the holder of any such mortgage or the trustee or beneficiary of any deed of trust or any of their respective successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination.  Any such subordination, however, shall be subject to the provisions of, and conditioned upon receipt by Tenant of the nondisturbance agreement described in, the penultimate sentence of this Section 20.2 .  Any mortgage or deed of trust to which this Agreement is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate is herein called “ Superior Mortgage ” and the holder, trustee or beneficiary of a Superior Mortgage or any successor in interest thereto is herein called “ Superior Mortgagee ”.  Tenant shall have no obligations under any Superior Mortgage other than those expressly set forth in this Section 20.2 , unless Tenant shall agree otherwise pursuant to any agreement between Tenant and such Superior Mortgagee.

14



 

nominee or designee) shall not be (a) liable in any way to Tenant for any act or omission, neglect or default on the part of any prior Landlord under this Agreement, (b) responsible for any monies owing by or on deposit with any prior Landlord to the credit of Tenant (except to the extent actually paid or delivered to the Successor Landlord), (c) subject to any counterclaim or setoff which theretofore accrued to Tenant against any prior Landlord, (d) bound by any modification of this Agreement subsequent to such Superior Mortgage, or by any previous prepayment of Rent for more than one (1) month in advance of the date due hereunder, which was not approved in writing by the Superior Mortgagee thereto, (e) liable to Tenant beyond the Successor Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property and the rents, income, receipts, revenues, issues and profits issuing from the Leased Property, (f) responsible for the performance of any work to be done by the Landlord under this Agreement to render the Leased Property ready for occupancy by Tenant (subject to Landlord’s obligations under Section 5.1.2(b)  or with respect to any insurance proceeds or Awards), or (g) required to remove any Person occupying the Leased Property or any part thereof, except if such person claims by, through or under the Successor Landlord.  Tenant agrees at any time and from time to time to execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of Tenant’s agreement to attorn, as aforesaid and Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with an instrument of nondisturbance and attornment from such Superior Mortgagee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Tenant whereby such Superior Mortgagee shall agree to recognize Tenant’s possessory and other rights under this Agreement notwithstanding any foreclosure or lease termination, subject to the provisions of this Section 20.2 .”

21.9         Liens and Encumbrances .  Except as permitted by Section 7.1 and Section 21.7 , Tenant shall not create or incur or suffer to be created or incurred or to exist any Lien on this Agreement or any of Tenant’s assets, properties, rights or income, or any of its interest therein, now or at any time hereafter owned, other than:

23.22.      Assignment of Rents and Leases.

 

The following terms, when used in this Section, shall have the following meanings:

 

“Leases” means all present and future leases, subleases, licenses, concessions or grants or other possessory interests now or hereafter in force, whether oral or written, covering or affecting the Properties known as Aspenwood, Heartfields at Easton, Heartlands at Ellicott City and Heartlands at Severna Park (the “Maryland Properties”) or any portion of the Maryland Properties (including proprietary leases or occupancy agreements if Tenant is a cooperative housing corporation), and all modifications, extensions or renewals thereof.  The term “Leases” shall also include any residency, occupancy, admission, and care agreements pertaining to residents of the Maryland Properties, any and all collateral securing the Leases and shall also specifically include, without limitation, this Agreement.

 

“Master Agreement” shall mean that certain Master Credit Facility Agreement by and between SNH FM Financing LLC and Citibank, N.A. (“Lender”) dated as of the date hereof.

 

“Rents” means all rents (whether from residential or non-residential space), revenues and other income of the Maryland Properties, including subsidy payments received from any sources (including but not limited to payments under any Housing Assistance Payments Contract), parking fees, laundry and vending machine income and fees and charges for food, healthcare and other services provided at the Maryland Properties, whether now due, past due, or to become due, resident and tenant security deposits, any and all collateral securing the payments of Rents, entrance fees, application fees, processing fees, community fees and any other amounts or fees deposited by any resident or tenant (whether forfeited or not) together with and including all proceeds from any private insurance for residents to cover rental charges and charges for services at or in connection with the Maryland Properties, and the right to third party payments due for the rents or services of residents at the Maryland Properties.

 

(a)            To the extent permitted by applicable law, Tenant absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Landlord Tenant’s right, title and interest in all Rents.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, it is the intention of Tenant to establish a present, absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Landlord of Tenant’s right, title and interest in all Rents and to authorize and empower Landlord to collect and receive all Rents owed to Tenant without the necessity of further action on the part of Tenant.  Promptly upon request by Landlord, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver further confirmation of such assignments as Landlord may from time to time require.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, Tenant and Landlord intend this assignment of Rents to be immediately effective and to constitute an absolute present assignment and not an assignment for additional security only.  However, if this present, absolute and unconditional assignment of Rents is not enforceable by its terms under the laws of the State is located, then it is the intention of Tenant that in this circumstance

 

19



 

this Agreement create and perfect a lien on Tenant’s right, title and interest in all Rents in favor of Landlord, which lien shall be effective as of the date of this Agreement and shall secure all obligations of Tenant under this Agreement.

 

(b)            After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Tenant authorizes Landlord to collect, sue for and compromise Rents and directs each resident and tenant of the Maryland Properties to pay all Rents to, or as directed by, Landlord.  However, until the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant a revocable license to collect and receive all Rents, to hold all Rents in trust for the benefit of Landlord and subject to the terms of this Agreement, to apply all Rents to pay the current costs and expenses of managing, operating and maintaining the Maryland Properties, including Additional Charges, resident and tenant improvements and other capital expenditures and otherwise to apply such Rents and retain them as its sole property, all to the extent such Rents are attributable to periods during which an Event of Default has not occurred (each a “Nondefault Period”).  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Rents attributable to Nondefault Periods may be retained by Tenant free and clear of, and released from, Landlord’s rights with respect to Rents under this Agreement.  From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and without the necessity of Landlord entering upon and taking and maintaining control of the Maryland Properties directly, or by a receiver, Tenant’s license to collect Rents shall automatically terminate and Landlord shall without notice be entitled to all Rents as they become due and payable, including Rents then due and unpaid.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand all Rents to which Landlord is entitled.  At any time on or after the date of Landlord’s demand for Rents, Landlord may give, and Tenant hereby irrevocably authorizes Landlord to give, notice to all residents and tenants of the Maryland Properties instructing them to pay all Rents to Landlord.  No resident or tenant shall be obligated to inquire further as to the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default, and no resident or tenant shall be obligated to pay to Tenant any amounts which are actually paid to Landlord in response to such a notice.  Any such notice by Landlord shall be delivered to each resident and tenant personally, by mail or by delivering such demand to each rental unit.  Tenant shall not interfere with and shall cooperate with Landlord’s collection of such Rents.  After an Event of Default, Landlord is further authorized to give notice to all third party payment payors (other than governmental entities) at Landlord’s option, instructing them to pay all third party payments which would be otherwise paid to Tenant to Landlord, to the extent permitted by law.

 

(c)            To the extent permitted by applicable law, Tenant absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Landlord all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Leases, including Tenant’s right, power and authority to modify the terms of any such Lease, or extend or terminate any such Lease.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, it is the intention of Tenant to establish a present, absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Landlord of all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Leases.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, Tenant and Landlord intend this assignment of the

 

20



 

Leases to be immediately effective and to constitute an absolute present assignment and not an assignment for additional security only.  However, if this present, absolute and unconditional assignment of the Leases is not enforceable by its terms under the laws of the State, then it is the intention of Tenant that in this circumstance this Agreement create and perfect a lien on the Leases in favor of Landlord, which lien shall be effective as of the date of this Agreement and shall secure all obligations of Tenant under this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or (c) below, the parties may agree to remove any Maryland Property from the terms of this Agreement in connection with a release of any of the Maryland Properties pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Master Agreement.

 

(d)            Until Landlord gives notice to Tenant of Landlord’s exercise of its rights under this Section 23.22, Tenant shall have all rights, power and authority granted to Tenant under any Lease (except as otherwise limited by this Section or any other provision of this Sublease), including the right, power and authority to modify the terms of any Lease or extend or terminate any Lease.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and at the option of Landlord, the permission given to Tenant pursuant to the preceding sentence to exercise all rights, power and authority under Leases shall terminate.  Tenant shall comply with and observe Tenant’s material obligations under all Leases, including Tenant’s obligations pertaining to the maintenance and disposition of resident or tenant security deposits.

 

(e)            Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant has not executed any prior assignment of Rents or Leases or any such assignments have been terminated and Tenant covenants and agrees that it will not perform any acts and has not executed, and shall not execute, any instrument which would prevent Landlord from exercising its rights under this Section 23.22, and that at the time of execution of this Agreement there has been no anticipation or prepayment of any Rents for more than two months prior to the due dates of such Rents.  Tenant shall not collect or accept payment of any Rents more than two months prior to the due dates of such Rents.

 

(f)             Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to file financing statements, continuation statements and financing statement amendments in such form as Landlord may require to perfect or continue the perfection of the security interest herein granted and Tenant agrees, if Landlord so requests, to execute and deliver to Landlord such financing statements , continuation statements and amendments.

 

(g)            The liens and security interests provided for herein, and all rights of Landlord in and to the Rents and Lease, shall be subordinate in all respects to all right, title and interest of Lender in and to the same.

 

21



 

(h)            Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may and shall assign to Lender the liens and security interests provided for herein and all rights of Landlord in and to the Rents and Leases.”

(xl)            All references to “Management Agreement” or any provisions relating thereto in the Lease Agreement are hereby deleted in their entirety.

Section 4.               Counterparts .  This Amendment may be executed in counterparts by the parties hereto, and each such counterpart shall be considered an original and all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

Section 5.               Governing Law .  THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED PURSUANT TO AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA (EXCLUDING THE LAW APPLICABLE TO CONFLICTS OR CHOICE OF LAW).  THIS PROVISION WAS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AGREED TO BY LANDLORD AND TENANT UPON CONSULTATION WITH INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL EACH SELECTED BY LANDLORD’S AND TENANT’S FREE WILL.

 

Section 6.               Consent to Jurisdiction .  LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY ARISING UNDER OR IN RELATION TO THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE LITIGATED IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.  THE LOCAL AND FEDERAL COURTS AND AUTHORITIES WITH JURISDICTION IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA SHALL HAVE JURISDICTION OVER ALL CONTROVERSIES WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER OR IN RELATION TO THIS AMENDMENT, INCLUDING THOSE CONTROVERSIES RELATING TO THE EXECUTION, JURISDICTION, BREACH, ENFORCEMENT OR COMPLIANCE WITH THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OTHER ISSUE ARISING UNDER, RELATING TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AMENDMENT.  LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE, JURISDICTION, AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS FOR ANY LITIGATION ARISING FROM THIS AMENDMENT, AND WAIVES ANY OTHER VENUE TO WHICH IT MIGHT BE ENTITLED BY VIRTUE OF DOMICILE, HABITUAL RESIDENCE OR OTHERWISE.

3.10                            Compliance .   Guarantor shall use reasonable business efforts to comply in all material respects with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all governmental authorities in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its property (including, without limitation, applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions relating to environmental, safety and other similar standards or controls).

 

3.11                            Insurance .   Guarantor shall maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to its properties and business against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by owners of established reputation engaged in the same or similar businesses and similarly situated, in such amounts and by such methods as shall be customary for such owners and deemed adequate by Guarantor.

4



 

Documents.  With respect to the Guaranteed Obligations which are monetary obligations, this guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collectability and is absolute and in no way conditional or contingent.  In case any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid when due and payable or performed at the time performance is required, Guarantor shall, in the case of monetary obligations, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice from Landlord, pay or cause to be paid to Landlord the amount thereof as is then due and payable and unpaid (including interest and other charges, if any, due thereon through the date of payment in accordance with the applicable provisions of the FM Financing Lease Documents) or, in the case of non-monetary obligations, perform or cause to be performed such obligations in accordance with the FM Financing Lease Documents.

 

5.                                        Set-Off .   Guarantor hereby authorizes Landlord, at any time and without notice, to set off the whole or any portion or portions of any or all sums credited by or due from Landlord to it against amounts payable under this Guaranty.  Landlord shall promptly notify Guarantor of any such set-off made by Landlord and the application made by Landlord of the proceeds thereof.

 

6.                                        Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations, Etc.   If Tenant is for any reason under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than because the same have been previously discharged in accordance with the terms of the FM Financing Lease Documents), or if any other moneys included in the Guaranteed Obligations have become unrecoverable from Tenant by operation of law or for any other reason, including, without limitation, the invalidity or irregularity in whole or in part of any Guaranteed Obligation or of any Transaction Document or any limitation on the liability of Tenant thereunder not contemplated by the FM Financing Lease Documents or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever, the guarantees contained in this Guaranty shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall be binding upon Guarantor to the same extent as if Guarantor at all times had been the principal debtor on all such Guaranteed Obligations.

 

7.                                        Additional Guarantees .   This Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guarantee or other security for the Guaranteed Obligations and it shall not be prejudiced or rendered unenforceable by the invalidity of any such other guarantee or security or by any waiver, amendment, release or modification thereof.

 

5



 

8.                                        Consents and Waivers, Etc.   Guarantor hereby acknowledges receipt of correct and complete copies of each of the FM Financing Lease Documents, and consents to all of the terms and provisions thereof, as the same may be from time to time hereafter amended or changed in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and, except as otherwise provided herein, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, waives (a) presentment, demand for payment, and protest of nonpayment, of any principal of or interest on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and of diligence, presentment, demand and protest, (c) notice of any default hereunder and any default, breach or nonperformance or Event of Default under any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the FM Financing Lease Documents, (d) notice of the terms, time and place of any private or public sale of any collateral held as security for the Guaranteed Obligations, (e) demand for performance or observance of, and any enforcement of any provision of, or any pursuit or exhaustion of rights or remedies against Tenant or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, under or pursuant to the FM Financing Lease Documents, or any agreement directly or indirectly relating thereto and any requirements of diligence or promptness on the part of the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations in connection therewith, and (f) to the extent Guarantor lawfully may do so, any and all demands and notices of every kind and description with respect to the foregoing or which may be required to be given by any statute or rule of law and any defense of any kind which it may now or hereafter have with respect to this Guaranty, or any of the FM Financing Lease Documents or the Guaranteed Obligations (other than that the same have been discharged in accordance with the FM Financing Lease Documents).

 

9.                                        No Impairment, Etc.   The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected or impaired by any assignment or transfer in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations without notice to Guarantor, or any waiver by Landlord or any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or by the holders of all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the performance or observance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in the Guaranteed Obligations or the FM Financing Lease Documents or any indulgence in or the extension of the time for payment by Tenant or any other guarantor of any amounts payable under or in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or the FM Financing Lease Documents or any other instrument or agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or of the time for performance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any other obligations under or arising out of any of the foregoing or the extension or renewal

 

6



 

thereof (except that with respect to any extension of time for payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations granted by Landlord or any other holder of such Guaranteed Obligations to Tenant, Guarantor’s obligations to pay or perform such Guaranteed Obligation shall be subject to the same extension of time for performance), or the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement or obligation of Tenant or any other guarantor set forth in any of the foregoing, or the voluntary or involuntary sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or any other guarantor or insolvency, bankruptcy, or other similar proceedings affecting Tenant or any other guarantor or any assets of Tenant or any such other guarantor, or the release or discharge of Tenant or any such other guarantor from the performance or observance of any agreement, covenant, term or condition contained in any of the foregoing without the consent of the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations by operation of law, or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.

 

10.                                  Reimbursement, Subrogation, Etc.   Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that it will not enforce or otherwise exercise any rights of reimbursement, subrogation, contribution or other similar rights against Tenant (or any other person against whom Landlord may proceed) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations prior to the payment in full of all amounts owing with respect to the FM Financing Lease Documents, and until all indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord shall have been paid in full, Guarantor shall not have any right of subrogation, and Guarantor waives any defense it may have based upon any election of remedies by Landlord which destroys its subrogation rights or its rights to proceed against Tenant for reimbursement, including, without limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor may suffer by reason of any rights, powers or remedies of Tenant in connection with any anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging the indebtedness to Landlord.  Until all obligations of Tenant pursuant to the FM Financing Lease Documents shall have been paid and satisfied in full, Guarantor further waives any right to enforce any remedy which Landlord now has or may in the future have against Tenant, any other guarantor or any other person and any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security whatsoever now or in the future held by Landlord.

 

11.                                  Defeasance .   This Guaranty shall terminate at such time as the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full and all other obligations of Guarantor to Landlord under this Guaranty have been satisfied in full; provided , however , if at any time, all or any part of any payment applied on account

 

7



 

of the Guaranteed Obligations is or must be rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Tenant), this Guaranty, to the extent such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, shall be deemed to have continued in existence notwithstanding any such termination.

 

12.                                  Notices .

from time to time and at any time during the term of this Guaranty to change their respective addresses effective upon receipt by the other parties of such notice and each shall have the right to specify as its address any other address within the United States of America.

 

13.                                  Successors and Assigns .   Whenever in this Guaranty any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party, including without limitation the holders, from time to time, of the Guaranteed Obligations; and all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements by or on behalf of Guarantor which are contained in this Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Landlord’s successors and assigns, including without limitation said holders, whether so expressed or not.

 

14.                                  Applicable Law .   Except as to matters regarding the internal affairs of Landlord and issues of or limitations on any personal liability of the shareholders and trustees of Landlord for obligations of Landlord, as to which the laws of the state of Landlord’s organization shall govern, this Guaranty shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts applicable to contracts between residents of Massachusetts which are to be performed entirely within Massachusetts, regardless of (a) where any such instrument is executed or delivered; or (b) where any payment or other performance required by any such instrument is made or required to be made; or (c) where any breach of any provision of any such instrument occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (d) where any action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (e) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (f) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than The Commonwealth of Massachusetts; or (g) any combination of the foregoing.

 

15.                                  Disputes .  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Guaranty (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”) or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as modified herein.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall

 

9



 

include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

 

There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are (a) only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration and (b) more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator.  The two party-nominated arbitrators shall jointly nominate the third and presiding arbitrator within fifteen days of the nomination of the second arbitrator.  If any arbitrator has not been nominated within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.  For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrators appointed by the parties to such Dispute may be affiliates or interested persons of such parties but the third arbitrator elected by the party arbitrators or by the AAA shall be unaffiliated with either party.

 

The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

In rendering an award or decision (the “ Arbitration Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Arbitration Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Arbitration Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

Except to the extent expressly provided by this Guaranty or as otherwise agreed between the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action by a holder of any party, award any portion of such

 

10



 

party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

The Arbitration Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Arbitration Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  The party against which the Arbitration Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Arbitration Award or such other date as the Arbitration Award may provide.

 

16.                                  Modification of Agreement .   No modification or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor any consent to any departure by Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Landlord, and such modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the purpose for which given.  No notice to or demand on Guarantor in any case shall entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.  This Guaranty may not be amended except by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf of the party against whom enforcement of such amendment is sought.

 

17.                                  Waiver of Rights by Landlord .   Neither any failure nor any delay on Landlord’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any

 

11



 

other or further exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

18.                                  Severability .   In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, but this Guaranty shall be reformed and construed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

 

19.                                  Entire Contract .   This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the place of any other instruments purporting to be an agreement of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

 

20.                                  Headings; Counterparts .   Headings in this Guaranty are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.  This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument, and in pleading or proving any provision of this Guaranty, it shall not be necessary to produce more than one of such counterparts.

 

21.                                  Remedies Cumulative .   No remedy herein conferred upon Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.

 

22.                                  NON-LIABILITY OF TRUSTEES .   THE DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING SNH FM FINANCING TRUST, A COPY OF WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ALL AMENDMENTS THERETO (COLLECTIVELY, THE “ DECLARATION ”), IS DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, PROVIDES THAT THE NAME “SNH FM FINANCING TRUST” REFERS TO THE TRUSTEES UNDER SUCH DECLARATION COLLECTIVELY AS TRUSTEES, BUT NOT INDIVIDUALLY OR PERSONALLY, AND THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF SNH FM FINANCING TRUST SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, SNH FM FINANCING TRUST.  ALL PERSONS DEALING WITH SNH FM FINANCING TRUST, IN ANY WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF SNH FM FINANCING TRUST FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION.

 

23.                                  Original Guarantees .   Guarantor and Landlord acknowledge and agree that this Guaranty amends and restates the Original Guarantees in their entirety with respect to the

 

12



 

Guaranteed Obligations and that this Guaranty shall govern the rights and obligations of Guarantor with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations from and after the date of this Guaranty.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Original Guarantees shall continue to govern the rights and obligations of Guarantor with respect to the “Guaranteed Obligations” (as defined in the Original Guarantees) prior to the date of this Guaranty and nothing contained in this Guaranty shall operate to release Guarantor from any such rights or obligations.

26



 

to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws and regulations, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by Government Agencies.  Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by or on behalf of Tenant, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Tenant.  Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports.  In the event Government Agencies classify any property covered by this Agreement as personal property, Tenant shall file, or cause to be filed, all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may legally so file.  Each party shall, to the extent it possesses the same, provide the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any property so classified as personal property.  Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns for property covered by this Agreement, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Tenant to file a protest.  All Impositions assessed against such personal property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty, subject to the provisions of Article 8 .

 

Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge; provided , however , that Landlord’s failure to give any such notice shall in no way diminish Tenant’s obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions.

(e)           Reimbursement for Additional Charges .  If Tenant pays or causes to be paid property taxes or similar or other Additional Charges attributable to periods after the end of the Term, whether upon expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement (other than termination by reason of an Event of Default), Tenant may, within a reasonable time after the end of the Term, provide Notice to Landlord of its estimate of such amounts.  Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for all payments of such taxes and other similar Additional Charges that are attributable to any period after the Term of this Agreement.

 

3.2               Late Payment of Rent, Etc.   If any installment of Minimum Rent, Additional Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional Charges which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord, on demand, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this Agreement, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional Charges to the Entity to which they would otherwise be due.  If any payments due from Landlord to Tenant shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, on demand, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof.

 

In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Charges when due, Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge, as Additional Charges, every fine, penalty, interest and cost which is added for non-payment or late payment of such items.  Landlord shall have all legal, equitable and contractual rights, powers and remedies provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise in the case of non-payment of the Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent.

9.3               Form Satisfactory, Etc.  All insurance policies and endorsements required pursuant to this Article 9 shall be fully paid for, nonassessable, and issued by reputable insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a general policy holder’s rating of no less than A in Best’s latest rating guide.  All property, business interruption, liability and flood insurance policies with respect to each Property shall include no deductible in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000).  At all times, all property, business interruption, liability and flood insurance policies, with the exception of worker’s compensation insurance coverage, shall name Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee as additional insureds, as their interests may appear.  All loss adjustments shall be payable as provided in Article 10 , except that losses under liability and worker’s compensation insurance policies shall be payable directly to the party entitled thereto.  Tenant shall cause all insurance premiums to be paid prior to the effective date of any policy, if required by such policy, or pursuant to an installment payment plan if permissible under such policy.  Not more than twenty five (25) days nor less than five (5) days prior to the effective date of the policies or renewal policies (which, for renewal policies, shall be prior to the expiration of the existing policy), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of enforceable binders for such insurance coverage.  Tenant shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to

 

41



 

Landlord certificates evidencing such insurance coverage within five (5) days after the effective date of such policies, and thereafter Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the policies or renewal policies promptly upon receipt by Tenant.  All such policies shall provide Landlord (and any Facility Mortgagee if required by the same) thirty (30) days prior written notice of any material change or cancellation of such policy.  In the event Tenant shall fail to effect (or cause to be effected) such insurance as herein required, to pay (or cause to be paid) the premiums therefor or to deliver (or cause to be delivered) such policies or certificates to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee at the times required, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon Notice to Tenant, to acquire such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Charges, together with interest accrued thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date such payment is made until (but excluding) the date repaid.

 

9.4               No Separate Insurance; Self-Insurance .  Tenant shall not take (or permit any Person to take) out separate insurance, concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required by this Article 9 , or increase the amount of any existing insurance by securing an additional policy or additional policies, unless all parties having an insurable interest in the subject matter of such insurance, including 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 Agreement.  In the event Tenant shall take out any such separate insurance or increase any of the amounts of the then existing insurance, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice thereof.  Tenant shall not self-insure (or permit any Person to self-insure) with respect to any insurance required to be carried hereunder by Tenant.

 

9.5               Indemnification of Landlord .  Notwithstanding the existence of any insurance provided for herein and without regard to the policy limits of any such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of the following, except to the extent caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct:  (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about any Property

 

42

43



 

subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2.4 .  Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any excess proceeds of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be paid to Tenant.  In the event that the provisions of Section 10.2.1 are applicable, the insurance proceeds shall be retained by the party entitled thereto pursuant to Section 10.2.1 .

 

10.2             Damage or Destruction .

 

10.2.1         Damage or Destruction of Leased Property .  If, during the Term, any Property shall be totally or partially destroyed and the Facility located thereon is thereby rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, either Landlord or Tenant may, by the giving of Notice thereof to the other, terminate this Agreement with respect to such affected Property, whereupon, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such affected Property and Landlord shall be entitled to retain the insurance proceeds payable on account of such damage.  In such event, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any deductible under the insurance policies covering such Facility, the amount of any uninsured loss and any difference between the replacement cost of the affected Property and the casualty insurance proceeds therefor.

 

10.2.2         Partial Damage or Destruction .  If, during the Term, any Property shall be totally or partially destroyed but the Facility is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, subject to Section 10.2.3 , promptly restore such Facility as provided in Section 10.2.4 .

44



 

Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(c) .  In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property by Notice to the other, whereupon, this Agreement shall so terminate and insurance proceeds shall be distributed as provided in Section 10.2.1 .  It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall be strictly liable and solely responsible for the amount of any deductible and shall, upon any insurable loss, pay over the amount of such deductible to Landlord at the time and in the manner herein provided for payment of the applicable proceeds to Landlord.

 

10.2.4         Disbursement of Proceeds .  In the event Tenant is required to restore any Property pursuant to Section 10.2 and this Agreement is not terminated as to such Property pursuant to this Article 10 , Tenant shall commence (or cause to be commenced) promptly and continue diligently to perform (or cause to be performed) the repair and restoration of such Property (hereinafter called the “ Work ”), so as to restore (or cause to be restored) the applicable Property in material compliance with all Legal Requirements and so that such Property shall be, to the extent practicable, substantially equivalent in value and general utility to its general utility and value immediately prior to such damage or destruction.  Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall advance the insurance proceeds and any additional amounts payable by Landlord pursuant to Section 10.2.3 or otherwise deposited with Landlord to Tenant regularly during the repair and restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of any such restoration and repair.  Any such advances shall be made not more than monthly within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant submits to Landlord a written requisition and substantiation therefor on AIA Forms G702 and G703 (or on such other form or forms as may be reasonably acceptable to Landlord).  Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of such insurance proceeds and other amounts on (a) the absence of any Event of Default, (b) its approval of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (c) general contractors’ estimates, (d) architect’s certificates, (e) conditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (f) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, (g), if Tenant has elected to advance deficiency funds pursuant to Section 10.2.3 , Tenant depositing

 

45



 

the amount thereof with Landlord and (h) such other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require.

 

Landlord’s obligation to disburse insurance proceeds under this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of such proceeds by any Facility Mortgagee to Landlord.

 

Tenant’s obligation to restore the applicable Property pursuant to this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of available insurance proceeds by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord or directly to Tenant and, in the event such proceeds are insufficient, Landlord electing to make such deficiency available therefor (and disbursement of such deficiency).

 

10.3             Damage Near End of Term .  Notwithstanding any provisions of Section 10.1 or 10.2 to the contrary, if damage to or destruction of any Property occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Term and if such damage or destruction cannot reasonably be expected to be fully repaired and restored prior to the date that is six (6) months prior to the end of the Term, the provisions of Section 10.2.1 shall apply as if such Property had been totally or partially destroyed and the Facility thereon rendered Unsuitable for its Permitted Use.

 

10.4             Tenant’s Property All insurance proceeds payable by reason of any loss of or damage to any of Tenant’s Personal Property shall be paid to Tenant and, to the extent necessary to repair or replace Tenant’s Personal Property in accordance with Section 10.5 , Tenant shall hold such proceeds in trust to pay the cost of repairing or replacing damaged Tenant’s Personal Property.

 

10.5             Restoration of Tenant’s Property .  If Tenant is required to restore any Property as hereinabove provided, Tenant shall either (a) restore all alterations and improvements made by Tenant and Tenant’s Personal Property, or (b) replace such alterations and improvements and Tenant’s Personal Property with improvements or items of the same or better quality and utility in the operation of such Property.

 

10.6             No Abatement of Rent .  This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any damage involving the Leased Property, or any portion thereof (provided that Landlord shall credit against such payments any amounts paid to Landlord as a

 

46



 

consequence of such damage under any business interruption insurance obtained by Tenant hereunder).  The provisions of this Article 10 shall be considered an express agreement governing any cause of damage or destruction to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, laws, rules, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provide for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.

 

10.7             Waiver .  Tenant hereby waives any statutory rights of termination which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof.

 

ARTICLE 11

 

CONDEMNATION

 

11.1             Total Condemnation, Etc.   If either (a) the whole of any Property shall be taken by Condemnation or (b) a Condemnation of less than the whole of any Property renders any Property Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Property, and Tenant and Landlord shall seek the Award for their interests in the applicable Property as provided in Section 11.5 .

 

11.2             Partial Condemnation .  In the event of a Condemnation of less than the whole of any Property such that such Property is still suitable for its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, to the extent of the Award and any additional amounts disbursed by Landlord as hereinafter provided, commence (or cause to be commenced) promptly and continue diligently to restore (or cause to be restored) the untaken portion of the applicable Leased Improvements so that such Leased Improvements shall constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as such Leased Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all Legal Requirements, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.2 .  If the cost of the repair or restoration of the affected Property exceeds the amount of the Award, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement).  In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the

 

47



 

obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s Notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided , however , in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(c) .  In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property and the entire Award shall be allocated as set forth in Section 11.5 .

 

Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall contribute to the cost of restoration that part of the Award necessary to complete such repair or restoration, together with severance and other damages awarded for the taken Leased Improvements and any deficiency Landlord has agreed to disburse, to Tenant regularly during the restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of such repair or restoration.  Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of such Award and other amounts on (a) the absence of any Event of Default, (b) its approval of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (c) general contractors’ estimates, (d) architect’s certificates, (e) conditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (f) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, (g), if Tenant has elected to advance deficiency funds pursuant to the preceding paragraph, Tenant depositing the amount thereof with Landlord and (h) such other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require.  Landlord’s obligation under this Section 11.2 to disburse the Award and such other amounts shall be subject to (x) the collection thereof by Landlord and (y) the satisfaction of any applicable requirements of any Facility Mortgage, and the release of such Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee.  Tenant’s obligation to restore the Leased Property shall be subject to the release of the Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord.

 

11.3             Abatement of Rent .  Other than as specifically provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any Condemnation involving the Leased Property, or any portion thereof.  The provisions of this Article 11 shall

 

48



 

be considered an express agreement governing any Condemnation involving the Leased Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.

 

11.4             Temporary Condemnation In the event of any temporary Condemnation of any Property or Tenant’s interest therein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall continue to pay (or cause to be paid), in the manner and on the terms herein specified, the full amount of the Rent.  Tenant shall continue to perform and observe (or cause to be performed and observed) all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Tenant to be performed and observed.  Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Tenant.  Tenant shall, promptly upon the termination of any such period of temporary Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore the affected Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, unless such period of temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term, in which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration.

 

11.5             Allocation of Award .  Except as provided in Section 11.4 and the second sentence of this Section 11.5 , the total Award shall be solely the property of and payable to Landlord.  Any portion of the Award made for the taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, the taking of Tenant’s Personal Property, the taking of Capital Additions paid for by Tenant and Tenant’s removal and relocation expenses shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant (subject to the provisions of Section 11.2 ).  In any Condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own Award in conformity herewith, at its own expense.

 

ARTICLE 12

 

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

 

12.1             Events of Default .  The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an “ Event of Default ” hereunder:

(d)           should any material obligation of Tenant in respect of any Indebtedness for money borrowed or for any material property or services, or any guaranty relating thereto, be declared to be or become due and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof, or should there occur and be continuing with respect to any such Indebtedness any event of default under any instrument or agreement evidencing or securing the same, the effect of which is to permit the holder or holders of such instrument or agreement or a trustee, agent or other representative on behalf of such holder or holders, to cause any such obligations to become due prior to its stated maturity; or

 

(e)           should an event of default by Tenant, any Guarantor or any Affiliated Person as to Tenant or any Guarantor occur and be continuing beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period under any of the Incidental Documents; or

 

(f)            should Tenant or any Guarantor generally not be paying its debts as they become due or should Tenant or any Guarantor make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

 

50

(h)           should Tenant or any Guarantor cause or institute any proceeding for its dissolution or termination; or

 

(i)            should the estate or interest of Tenant in the Leased Property or any part thereof be levied upon or attached in any proceeding and the same shall not be vacated or discharged within the later of (x) ninety (90) days after commencement thereof, unless the amount in dispute is less than $250,000, in which case Tenant shall give notice to Landlord of the dispute but Tenant may defend in any suitable way, and (y) two hundred seventy (270) days after receipt by Tenant of Notice thereof from Landlord (unless Tenant shall be contesting such lien or attachment in good faith in accordance with Article 8 ); or

 

(j)            should there occur any direct or indirect Change in Control of any or all of the Entities comprising Tenant or any Guarantor; or

 

(k)           should a final unappealable determination be made by the applicable Government Agency that Tenant shall have failed to comply with applicable Medicare and/or Medicaid regulations in the operation of any Facility, as a result of which failure Tenant is declared ineligible to receive reimbursements under the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs for such Facility;

 

then, and in any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies available to it, may terminate this Agreement with respect to any or all of the Leased Property by giving Notice thereof to Tenant and upon the expiration of the time, if any, fixed in such Notice, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to all or the designated portion of the Leased Property

 

51



 

and all rights of Tenant under this Agreement with respect thereto shall cease.  Landlord shall have and may exercise all rights and remedies available at law and in equity to Landlord as a result of Tenant’s breach of this Agreement.

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, enter upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and take possession of any and all of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, without liability for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the same at public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable Notice of the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Landlord or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, unless otherwise prohibited by law.  Unless otherwise provided by law and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable Notice shall be met if such Notice is given at least ten (10) days before the date of sale.  The proceeds from any such disposition, less all expenses incurred in connection with the taking of possession, holding and selling of such property (including, reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be applied as a credit against the indebtedness which is secured by any Security Agreement granted by Tenant.  Any surplus shall be paid to Tenant or as otherwise required by law and Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord, as Additional Charges, upon demand.

 

12.2             Remedies .  None of (a) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1 , (b) the repossession of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, (c) the failure of Landlord to relet the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, nor (d) the reletting of all or any of portion of the Leased Property, shall relieve Tenant of its liability and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such termination, repossession or reletting.  In the event of any such termination, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord all Rent due and payable with respect to the Leased Property, or terminated portion thereof, through and including the date of such termination.  Thereafter, Tenant, until the end of what would have been the Term of this Agreement in the absence of such termination, and whether or not the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, shall have been relet, shall be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord, as current damages, the Rent (Additional Rent to be reasonably calculated by Landlord based on historical Gross Revenues) and other charges which would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the Term had

 

52



 

such termination not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, after deducting all reasonable expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys’ fees, advertising, expenses of employees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such reletting.  Tenant shall pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Minimum Rent would have been payable hereunder if this Agreement had not been so terminated with respect to such of the Leased Property.

 

At any time after such termination, whether or not Landlord shall have collected any such current damages, as liquidated final damages beyond the date of such termination, at Landlord’s election, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the present value (as reasonably determined by Landlord) of the excess, if any, of the Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder from the date of such termination (assuming that, for the purposes of this paragraph, annual payments by Tenant on account of Impositions and Additional Rent would be the same as payments required for the immediately preceding twelve calendar months, or if less than twelve calendar months have expired since the applicable Commencement Date for any Property, the payments required for such lesser period projected to an annual amount) for what would be the then unexpired term of this Agreement if the same remained in effect, over the fair market rental for the same period.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater than, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to above.

 

In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration and dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (a) relet the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option, be equal to, less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers advisable and necessary to relet the same, and (b) make such reasonable alterations, repairs and decorations in the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, considers

 

53



 

advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting the Leased Property; and the making of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid.  Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for any failure to relet all or any portion of the Leased Property, or, in the event that the Leased Property is relet, for failure to collect the rent under such reletting.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Leased Property, by reason of the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default hereunder.

 

12.3             Tenant’s Waiver .  IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.1 OR 12.2 , TENANT WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF SUMMARY PROCEEDINGS TO ENFORCE THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 12 , AND THE BENEFIT OF ANY LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN FORCE EXEMPTING PROPERTY FROM LIABILITY FOR RENT OR FOR DEBT.

 

12.4             Application of Funds .  Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this Agreement during the existence or continuance of any Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Event of Default) shall be applied to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State.  Any balance shall be paid to Tenant.

 

12.5             Landlord’s Right to Cure Tenant’s Default .  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord, after Notice to Tenant (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without waiving or releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to), at any time thereafter, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, for such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor.  No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant.  All reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law)

 

54



 

at the Overdue Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.

 

ARTICLE 13

 

HOLDING OVER

 

Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rate equal to two (2) times the Minimum Rent and other charges herein provided (prorated on a daily basis).  Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages (direct or indirect) sustained by reason of any such holding over.  Otherwise, such holding over shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to the extent applicable.  Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express or implied, of Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE 14

 

LANDLORD DEFAULT

 

If Landlord shall default in the performance or observance of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement or any obligation of Landlord, if any, under any agreement affecting the Leased Property, the performance of which is not Tenant’s obligation pursuant to this Agreement, and any such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Tenant to Landlord and any applicable Facility Mortgagee, or such additional period as may be reasonably required to correct the same, Tenant may declare the occurrence of a “ Landlord Default ” by a second Notice to Landlord and to such Facility Mortgagee.  Thereafter, Tenant may forthwith cure the same and, subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, invoice Landlord for costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) incurred by Tenant in curing the same, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) from the date Landlord receives Tenant’s invoice until paid, at the Overdue Rate.  Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Agreement for any default by Landlord hereunder and no right, for any such default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other charges due hereunder.

56



 

this Agreement or the leasehold estate created hereby or any other rights arising under this Agreement to be assigned, transferred, mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated or encumbered, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, or permit the use or operation of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, by anyone other than Tenant, any Manager approved by Landlord pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement or residents and patients of Tenant, or the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, to be offered or advertised for assignment or subletting.

 

For purposes of this Section 16.1 , an assignment of this Agreement shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any direct or indirect Change in Control of any or all of the Entities comprising Tenant.

 

If this Agreement is assigned or if the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, is sublet (or occupied by anybody other than Tenant or any Manager, their respective employees or residents or patients of Tenant), Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 16.1 , the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement.

 

Any assignment or transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Agreement shall be subject to such assignee’s or transferee’s delivery to Landlord of (a) a Guaranty, which Guaranty shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which Guaranty shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; (b) a pledge of the stock, partnership, membership or other ownership interests of such assignee or other transferee to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which pledge shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which pledge shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; (c) a security agreement granting Landlord a security interest in all of such assignee’s or transferee’s right, title and interest in and to any personal property, intangibles and fixtures (other than accounts receivable) with respect to any Property which is subject to any such assignment or transfer to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which security agreement shall be

 

57



 

in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which security agreement shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; and (d) in the case of a sublease, an assignment which assigns all of such subtenant’s right, title and interest in such sublease to Landlord to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which assignment shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which assignment shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder.

 

No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder (unless Landlord and Tenant expressly otherwise agree that Tenant shall be released from all obligations hereunder), and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the prohibition set forth in this Section 16.1 .  No assignment, subletting or occupancy shall affect any Permitted Use.  Any subletting, assignment or other transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Agreement in contravention of this Section 16.1 shall be voidable at Landlord’s option.

58



 

any credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for under the sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment, (vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of such subtenant unless actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any portion of the Leased Property; and (c) in the event that such subtenant receives a written Notice from Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such party may direct.  All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Facility Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn.  An original counterpart of each such sublease and assignment and assumption, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and (x) in the case of an assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep and perform all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the performance thereof and (y) in the case of either an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder.

 

The provisions of this Section 16.2 shall not be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1 .

 

16.3             Permitted Sublease .   Notwithstanding the foregoing, including, without limitation, Section 16.2 , but subject to the provisions of Section 16.4 and any other express conditions or limitations set forth herein, Tenant may, in each instance after Notice to Landlord, (a) enter into third party residency agreements with respect to the units located at the Facilities, (b) sublease space at any Property for laundry, commissary or child care purposes or other concessions in furtherance of the Permitted Use, so long as such subleases will not reduce the number of units at any Facility, will not violate or affect any Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement, and Tenant shall

 

59



 

provide such additional insurance coverage applicable to the activities to be conducted in such subleased space as Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee may reasonably require, and (c) enter into one or more subleases with Affiliated Persons of Tenant with respect to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, provided Tenant gives Landlord Notice of the material terms and conditions thereof.  Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that if Tenant enters into one (1) or more subleases with Affiliated Persons of Tenant with respect to any Property, or any portion thereof, in accordance with the preceding clause (c), Tenant may allocate the rent and other charges with respect to the affected Property in any reasonable manner; provided however , that such allocation shall not affect Tenant’s (nor any Guarantor’s) liability for the Rent and other obligations of Tenant under this Agreement; and, provided further , that Tenant shall give Landlord prompt written notice of any allocation or reallocation of the rent and other charges with respect to the affected Property and, in any event, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of the amount of such allocations at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date that Landlord or Senior Housing Properties Trust is required to file any tax returns in any State where such affected Property is located.

 

16.4             Sublease Limitation .  Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, on any basis such that the rental to be paid by any sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on the net income or profits derived by the business activities of such sublessee, any other formula such that any portion of such sublease rental would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto or would otherwise disqualify Landlord for treatment as a real estate investment trust.

23.1             Limitation on Payment of Rent .  All agreements between Landlord and Tenant herein are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of Rent, or otherwise, shall the Rent or any other amounts payable to Landlord under this Agreement exceed the maximum permissible under Applicable Laws, the benefit of which may be asserted by Tenant as a defense, and if, from any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Agreement, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, or if from any circumstances Landlord should ever receive as fulfillment of such provision such an excessive amount, then, ipso facto , the amount which would be excessive shall be applied to the reduction of the installment(s) of Minimum Rent next due and not to the payment of such excessive amount.  This provision shall control every other provision of this Agreement and any other agreements between Landlord and Tenant.

 

23.2             No Waiver .  No failure by Landlord or Tenant to insist upon the strict performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial payment of Rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any such term.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, no waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach.

 

23.3             Remedies Cumulative To the maximum extent permitted by law, each legal, equitable or contractual right, power and remedy of Landlord or Tenant, now or hereafter provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord or Tenant (as applicable) of any one or more of such rights, powers and remedies shall not preclude the

 

71



 

simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of such other rights, powers and remedies.

 

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

 

23.5             Acceptance of Surrender .  No surrender to Landlord of this Agreement or of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.

 

23.6             No Merger of Title .  It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that there shall be no merger of this Agreement or of the leasehold estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own or hold, directly or indirectly this Agreement or the leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord’s interest in the Leased Property.

 

23.7             Conveyance by Landlord .  If Landlord or any successor owner of all or any portion of the Leased Property shall convey all or any portion of the Leased Property in accordance with the terms hereof other than as security for a debt, and the grantee or transferee of such of the Leased Property shall expressly assume all obligations of Landlord hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or transfer, Landlord or such successor owner, as the case may be, shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations of Landlord under this Agreement with respect to such of the Leased Property arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer and all such future liabilities and obligations shall thereupon be binding upon the new owner.

 

23.8             Quiet Enjoyment .  Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Leased Property for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Encumbrance permitted under Article 20 or otherwise permitted to be created

 

72



 

by Landlord hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, provided the same do not materially interfere with Tenant’s ability to operate any Facility and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing by Tenant.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant any right to cancel or terminate this Agreement or abate, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other sum payable under this Agreement, or to fail to perform any other obligation of Tenant hereunder.

 

23.9             No Recordation .   Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Agreement.

 

23.10           Notices .

 

(a)           Any and all notices, demands, consents, approvals, offers, elections and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed adequately given if in writing and the same shall be delivered either in hand, by telecopier with written acknowledgment of receipt, or by mail or Federal Express or similar expedited commercial carrier, addressed to the recipient of the notice, postpaid and registered or certified with return receipt requested (if by mail), or with all freight charges prepaid (if by Federal Express or similar carrier).

6.             Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations, Etc.   If Tenant is for any reason under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than because the same have been previously discharged in accordance with the terms of the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents), or if any other moneys included in the Guaranteed Obligations have become unrecoverable from Tenant by operation of law or for any other reason, including, without limitation, the invalidity or irregularity in whole or in part of any Guaranteed Obligation or of any Transaction Document or any limitation on the liability of Tenant thereunder not contemplated by the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever, the guarantees contained in this Guaranty shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall be binding upon Guarantor to the same extent as if Guarantor at all times had been the principal debtor on all such Guaranteed Obligations.

 

5



 

7.             Additional Guarantees .   This Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guarantee or other security for the Guaranteed Obligations and it shall not be prejudiced or rendered unenforceable by the invalidity of any such other guarantee or security or by any waiver, amendment, release or modification thereof.

9.             No Impairment, Etc.   The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected or impaired by any assignment or transfer in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations without notice to Guarantor, or any waiver by Landlord or any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or by the holders of all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the performance or observance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in the Guaranteed

17.           Waiver of Rights by Landlord .   Neither any failure nor any delay on Landlord’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

18.           Severability .   In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, but this Guaranty shall be reformed and construed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

Lender’s possession; (2) notify the Post Office to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to Operator for the Mortgaged Property to such address as Lender may designate; and (3) receive, open, and dispose of all such mail addressed to Operator.  Any amounts so received by Lender and not utilized to pay for operating expenses of any Mortgaged Property shall be applied against Operator’s obligations to Master Tenant under the Operating Lease and to Master Tenant’s obligations under the Master Lease.

 

(d)            Upon an Event of Default, unless cured to Lender’s satisfaction, Lender may, without demand and without advertisement or notice, at any time or times, sell and deliver any or all Equipment or Inventory held by or for it at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as Lender, in its sole discretion, deems advisable.  Subject to the provisions of applicable law, Lender may postpone or cause the postponement of the sale of all or any portion of the Equipment or Inventory by announcement at the time and place of such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the sale has been postponed or Lender may further postpone such sale by announcement made at such time and place.  Without in any way limiting the foregoing, Lender shall, following any Event of Default, unless cured to Lender’s satisfaction, have the right, in addition to all other rights provided herein or by law, to enter without legal process upon the Mortgaged Property (provided that such entry be done lawfully) for the purpose of taking possession of the Equipment or Inventory, and the right to maintain such possession on the Mortgaged Property or to remove the Equipment or Inventory or any part thereof to such other places as Lender may desire.  Whether or not Lender exercises its right to take possession of the Equipment or Inventory, Operator shall, upon Lender’s demand, promptly assemble the Equipment or Inventory and make it available to Lender at the Mortgaged Property.

 

3.              ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS; APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER; LENDER IN POSSESSION.

 

(a)            To the extent permitted by applicable law, Operator absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Lender Operator’s right, title and interest in all Rents.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, it is the intention of Operator to establish a present, absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Lender of Operator’s right, title and interest in all Rents and to authorize and empower Lender to collect and receive all Rents owed to Operator without the necessity of further action on the part of Operator.  Promptly upon request by Lender, Operator agrees to execute and deliver further confirmation of such assignments as Lender may from time to time require.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, Operator and Lender intend this assignment of Rents to be immediately effective and to constitute an absolute present assignment and not an assignment for additional security only.  However, if this present, absolute and unconditional assignment of Rents is not enforceable by its terms under the laws of the Property Jurisdiction (as that term is defined in the Instrument), then it is the intention of Operator that in this circumstance this Agreement create and perfect a lien on Operator’s right, title and interest in all Rents in favor of Lender, which lien shall be effective as of the date of this Agreement and shall secure all obligations of Operator under this Agreement and under the Operating Lease.

(b)           After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Operator authorizes Lender to collect, sue for and compromise Rents and directs each resident and tenant of the Mortgaged Property to pay all Rents to, or as directed by, Lender.  However, until the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender hereby grants to Operator a revocable license to collect and receive all Rents, to hold all Rents in trust for the benefit of Lender and subject to the terms of the Operating Lease, to apply all Rents to pay the current costs and expenses of managing, operating and maintaining the Mortgaged Property, including utilities, Taxes and insurance premiums (to the extent not included in Imposition Deposits), resident and tenant improvements and other capital expenditures and otherwise to apply such Rents and retain them as its sole property, all to the extent such Rents are attributable to periods during which an Event of Default has not occurred (each a “Nondefault Period”).  Subject to the terms of the Operating Lease, Rents attributable to Nondefault Periods may be retained by Operator free and clear of, and released from, Lender’s rights with respect to Rents under this Agreement.  From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and without the necessity of Lender entering upon and taking and maintaining control of the Mortgaged Property directly, or by a receiver, Operator’s license to collect Rents shall automatically terminate and Lender shall without notice be entitled to all Rents as they become due and payable, including Rents then due and unpaid.  Operator shall pay to Lender upon demand all Rents to which Lender is entitled.  At any time on or after the date of Lender’s demand for Rents, Lender may give, and Operator hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to give, notice to all residents and tenants of the Mortgaged Property instructing them to pay all Rents to Lender.  No resident or tenant shall be obligated to inquire further as to the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default, and no resident or tenant shall be obligated to pay to Operator any amounts which are actually paid to Lender in response to such a notice.  Any such notice by Lender shall be delivered to each resident and tenant personally, by mail or by delivering such demand to each rental unit.  Operator shall not interfere with and shall cooperate with Lender’s collection of such Rents.  After an Event of Default, Lender is further authorized to give notice to all third party payment payors (other than governmental entities) at Lender’s option, instructing them to pay all third party payments which would be otherwise paid to Operator to Lender, to the extent permitted by law.

 

(c)           Operator represents and warrants to Lender that Operator has not executed any prior assignment of Rents or any such assignments have been terminated and Operator covenants and agrees that it will not perform any acts and has not executed, and shall not execute, any instrument which would prevent Lender from exercising its rights under this Section 3, and that at the time of execution of this Agreement there has been no anticipation or prepayment of any Rents for more than two months prior to the due dates of such Rents.  Operator shall not collect or accept payment of any Rents more than two months prior to the due dates of such Rents.

 

(d)           If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may, regardless of the adequacy of Lender’s security or the solvency of Operator and even in the absence of waste, to the extent permitted by applicable law, enter upon and take and maintain full control of the Mortgaged Property in order to perform all acts that Lender in its discretion

determines to be necessary or desirable for the operation and maintenance of the Mortgaged Property, including the execution, cancellation or modification of Leases, the collection of all Rents, the making of repairs to the Mortgaged Property and the execution or termination of Contracts and Leases providing for the management, operation or maintenance of the Mortgaged Property, for the purposes of enforcing the assignment of Rents pursuant to Section 3(a), protecting the Mortgaged Property or the security of this Agreement, or for such other purposes as Lender in its discretion may deem necessary or desirable.  Alternatively, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, regardless of the adequacy of Lender’s security, without regard to Operator’s solvency and without the necessity of giving prior notice (oral or written) to Operator, Lender may apply to any court having jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver for the Mortgaged Property to take any or all of the actions set forth in the preceding sentence.  If Lender elects to seek the appointment of a receiver for the Mortgaged Property at any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Operator, by its execution of this Agreement, expressly consents to the appointment of such receiver, including the appointment of a receiver ex parte if permitted by applicable law.  Lender or the receiver, as the case may be, shall be entitled to receive a reasonable fee for managing the Mortgaged Property.  Immediately upon appointment of a receiver or immediately upon Lender’s entering upon and taking possession and control of the Mortgaged Property, Operator shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, surrender possession of the Mortgaged Property to Lender or the receiver, as the case may be, and shall deliver to Lender or the receiver, as the case may be, all documents, records (including records on electronic or magnetic media), accounts, surveys, plans, and specifications relating to the Mortgaged Property and all security deposits and prepaid Rents.  In the event Lender takes possession and control of the Mortgaged Property, Lender may exclude Operator and its representatives from the Mortgaged Property.  Operator acknowledges and agrees that the exercise by Lender of any of the rights conferred under this Section 3 shall not be construed to make Lender a mortgagee-in-possession of the Mortgaged Property so long as Lender has not itself entered into actual possession of the Land and Improvements.

 

(e)           To the extent permitted by applicable law, Master Tenant absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Lender Master Tenant’s right, title and interest in all Rents.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, it is the intention of Master Tenant to establish a present, absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Lender of Master Tenant’s right, title and interest in all Rents and to authorize and empower Lender to collect and receive all Rents owed to Master Tenant without the necessity of further action on the part of Master Tenant.  Promptly upon request by Lender, Master Tenant agrees to execute and deliver further confirmation of such assignment as Lender may from time to time require.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, Master Tenant and Lender intend this assignment of Rents to be immediately effective and to constitute an absolute present assignment and not an assignment for additional security only.  However, if this present, absolute and unconditional assignment of Rents is not enforceable by its terms under the laws of the Property Jurisdiction (as that term is defined in the Instrument), then it is the intention of Master Tenant that in this circumstance this Agreement create and perfect a lien on Master Tenants’ right, title and interest in all Rents in favor of Lender, which lien shall be effective as of the date of this Agreement and shall secure all obligations of Master Tenant under this Agreement and under the Master Lease.

not limited to Rents, service charges, insurance payments and third party payments.  Borrower, Master Tenant and Operator hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at the option of Lender, Operator shall continue to provide all necessary services required under any applicable licensing or regulatory requirements and shall fully cooperate with Lender and any receiver as may be appointed by a court, in performing these services until such time as Lender has arranged for a replacement operator, and in arranging an orderly transition to a replacement operator, manager or provider of the necessary services subject to payment to Operator of a reasonable compensation for such services.  In connection with such transition to a replacement operator, Borrower, Master Tenant and Operator agree to cooperate with Lender in arranging an orderly transfer to a replacement operator of all Licenses and governmental approvals necessary or reasonably required to operate the Mortgaged Property as a Seniors Housing Facility, and to execute promptly all applications, assignments, consents and documents requested by Lender to facilitate such transition.

 

9.             NON-DISTURBANCE.   In the event Lender takes possession of Borrower’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, as mortgagee-in-possession or otherwise, or forecloses the Instrument or otherwise causes Borrower’s interest in the Mortgaged Property to be sold pursuant to the Instrument or exercises any other right or remedy available under the Instrument or this Agreement, Lender agrees not to affect, terminate or disturb Master Tenant’s or Operator’s right to quiet enjoyment and possession of the Mortgaged Property under the terms of the Master Lease and Operating Lease, or any of Master Tenant’s rights under the Master Lease or Operator’s rights under the Operating Lease, and to recognize all of Master Tenant’s other rights under the Master Lease and all of Operator’s other rights under the Operating Lease, so long as there is no Event of Default.

 

In the event that Lender succeeds to the interest of the Borrower’s fee title to the Mortgaged Property and as landlord under the Master Lease, (hereinafter collectively referred to in this paragraph as “Successor Landlord”), Lender and Master Tenant hereby agree to recognize one another as landlord and tenant, respectively, under the Master Lease, and to be bound to one another under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Master Lease.  Accordingly, from and after such event, Successor Landlord and Master Tenant shall have the same remedies against each other for the breach of an agreement contained in the Master Lease as Master Tenant and Borrower, had before Successor Landlord succeeded to the interest of the Borrower, provided, however, that Successor Landlord shall not be:

 

a.             liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord; or

 

b.             subject to any offsets or defenses that Master Tenant might have against any prior landlord; or

 

c.             bound by any rent or additional rent that Master Tenant might have paid for more than one month in advance to any prior landlord; or

d.             bound by any amendment or modification of the Master Lease or the Operating Lease made after the date of this Assignment without Lender’s prior written consent; or

 

e.             liable for return of any security deposit or reserve to the extent not made available to Lender as successive landlord succeeding Master Tenant and/or Borrower and becoming the Successor Landlord.

 

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, while an “Event of Default” under the Instrument has occurred, (a) Lender shall have the right to exercise all rights as owner of the Mortgaged Property under the Master Lease and (b) Operator shall pay to Lender directly all Rent and other sums due to Master Tenant under the Operating Lease which amounts shall be credited as set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement.

 

10.           TURNOVER OF BOOKS AND RECORDS.   On the effective date of termination of the Operating Lease and/or the Master Lease, Operator and Master Tenant, as applicable, shall turn over to Lender all books and records relating to the Mortgaged Property and the residents and tenants (copies of which may be retained by Operator or Master Tenant, at their expense), together with such authorizations and letters of direction addressed to residents, tenants, suppliers, employees, banks and other parties as Lender may reasonably require.  Operator and Master Tenant shall cooperate with Lender in the transfer of operating and management responsibilities to Lender, any receiver, or their designees.  A final accounting of unpaid fees (if any) due to Operator under the Operating Lease and due to Master Tenant under the Master Lease, shall be made within 60 days after the effective date of termination, but Lender shall not have any liability or obligation to Operator or Master Tenant for unpaid fees or other amounts payable under the Operating Lease or Master Lease, as applicable, which accrue before Lender acquires title to the Mortgaged Property, or before Lender becomes a mortgagee in possession.

 

11.           NOTICE.   Operator’s and Master Tenant’s address for Notice is c/o Five Star Quality Care, Inc., 400 Centre Street, Newton, Massachusetts 02458.  Borrower’s address for notice is c/o Senior Housing Properties Trust, 400 Centre Street, Newton, Massachusetts 02458.  Lender’s addresses for notice are 325 E.

(a)           Each of Operator and Master Tenant will use its best efforts to cooperate with Lender, including attendance at any meetings requested by Lender (after reasonable prior notice), allowing Lender to undertake inspections of the Mortgaged Property and furnishing financial statements of Master Tenant and Operator and operating statements for the Mortgaged Property.  As soon as available, and in any event within ninety (90) days after the close of its fiscal year during the Term of this Agreement,  Five Star Quality Car Inc.’s Chief Financial Officer will provide to Lender, a letter as of January 1 of each year, to the effect that such officer has reviewed the records and systems of the Operator, Master Tenant and Five Star Quality Car Inc. and that each of Operator and Master Tenant is in compliance with subsections (v), (vi) and (xvi) of the Single- Purpose requirements (as set forth in the definition of Single-Purpose herein) (the “Compliance Letter”).  If Five Star Quality Car Inc. is no longer a publicly traded entity, such Compliance Letter will be provided by Operator, Master Tenant and Five Star Quality Car Inc.’s independent certified public accounting firm or any other nationally recognized accounting firm and such Compliance Letter will be based upon agreed upon procedures satisfactory to Lender.  In addition both Master Tenant and Operator acknowledge that each has received from Borrower and reviewed a fully executed copy of the Instrument, the Master Completion/Repair and Security Agreement, Master Replacement Reserve and Security Agreement, the Expansion Security Agreement, if any and Master Agreement (the “Designated Loan Documents) and covenants therein.  Each of Operator and Master Tenant agrees to comply with all provisions and covenants in the Designated Loan Documents applicable to the use, repair and operation of the Mortgaged Property (the “Operating Covenants”), including without limitation, arranging for the escrow of Taxes and insurance with Lender and, if necessary, providing insurance coverage in accordance with Lender’s requirements and assigning contracts relating to repairs.  In the event Master Tenant or Operator fails to so use, repair and operate the Mortgaged Property, Lender shall have the right to enforce the Operating Covenants directly against Master Tenant and Operator upon Borrower’s failure to do so, in accordance with the provisions of the Instrument and this Agreement.  An Event of Default by Master Tenant under this Agreement shall constitute an event of default by it under the Master Lease and an Event of Default by Operator under this Agreement shall constitute an event of default by it under the Operating Lease.  Any Event of Default under this Agreement shall be an Event of Default under the Loan Documents.  Master Tenant agrees to comply with all of its obligations under the Master Lease and Operator agrees to comply with all of its obligations under the Operating Lease, in each case, pertaining to its payment and performance of any repairs and capital improvements at the Mortgaged Property;

6.                                        Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations, Etc.   If Tenant is for any reason under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than because the same have been previously discharged in accordance with the terms of the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents), or if any other moneys included in the Guaranteed Obligations have become unrecoverable from Tenant by operation of law or for any other reason, including, without limitation, the invalidity or irregularity in whole or in part of any Guaranteed Obligation or of any Amended Lease No. 1 Document or any limitation on the liability of Tenant thereunder not contemplated by the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever, the guarantees contained in this Guaranty shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall be binding upon each Subtenant Guarantor to the same extent as if such Subtenant Guarantor at all times had been the principal debtor on all such Guaranteed Obligations.

 

7.                                        Additional Guarantees .  This Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guarantee or other security for the Guaranteed Obligations and it shall not be prejudiced or rendered unenforceable by the invalidity of any such other guarantee or security or by any waiver, amendment, release or modification thereof.

 

8.                                        Consents and Waivers, Etc.   Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby acknowledges receipt of correct and complete copies of each of the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents, and consents to all of the terms and provisions thereof, as the same may be from time to time hereafter amended or changed in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and, except as otherwise provided herein, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, waives (a) presentment, demand for payment, and protest of nonpayment, of any principal of or interest on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and of diligence, presentment, demand and protest, (c) notice of any default hereunder and any default, breach or

9.                                        No Impairment, Etc.   The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of each of the Subtenant Guarantors under this Guaranty shall not be affected or impaired by any assignment or transfer in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations without notice to each such Subtenant Guarantor, or any waiver by Landlord or any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or by the holders of all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the performance or observance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents or any indulgence in or the extension of the time for payment by Tenant or any other guarantor of any amounts payable under or in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents or any other instrument or agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or of the time for performance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any other obligations under or arising out of any of the foregoing or the extension or renewal thereof (except that with respect to any extension of time for payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations granted by Landlord or any other holder of such Guaranteed Obligations to Tenant, such Subtenant Guarantor’s obligations to pay or perform such Guaranteed Obligation shall be subject to the same extension of time for performance), or the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement or obligation of Tenant or any other guarantor set forth in any of the foregoing, or the voluntary or involuntary

10.                                  Reimbursement, Subrogation, Etc.   Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that it will not enforce or otherwise exercise any rights of reimbursement, subrogation, contribution or other similar rights against Tenant (or any other person against whom Landlord may proceed) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations prior to the payment in full of all amounts owing with respect to the Amended Lease No. 1, and until all indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord shall have been paid in full, no Subtenant Guarantor shall have any right of subrogation, and each Subtenant Guarantor waives any defense it may have based upon any election of remedies by Landlord which destroys its subrogation rights or its rights to proceed against Tenant for reimbursement, including, without limitation, any loss of rights such Subtenant Guarantor may suffer by reason of any rights, powers or remedies of Tenant in connection with any anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging the indebtedness to Landlord.  Until all obligations of Tenant pursuant to the Amended Lease No. 1 Documents shall have been paid and satisfied in full, each Subtenant Guarantor further waives any right to enforce any remedy which Landlord now has or may in the future have against Tenant, any other guarantor or any other person and any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security whatsoever now or in the future held by Landlord.

deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party, including without limitation the holders, from time to time, of the Guaranteed Obligations; and all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements by or on behalf of the Subtenant Guarantors which are contained in this Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Landlord’s successors and assigns, including without limitation said holders, whether so expressed or not.

 

14.                                  Applicable Law .  Except as to matters regarding the internal affairs of Landlord and issues of or limitations on any personal liability of the shareholders and trustees of Landlord for obligations of Landlord, as to which the laws of the state of Landlord’s organization shall govern, this Guaranty shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts applicable to contracts between residents of Massachusetts which are to be performed entirely within Massachusetts, regardless of (a) where any such instrument is executed or delivered; or (b) where any payment or other performance required by any such instrument is made or required to be made; or (c) where any breach of any provision of any such instrument occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (d) where any action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (e) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (f) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than The Commonwealth of Massachusetts; or (g) any combination of the foregoing.

 

15.                                  Disputes .  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Guaranty (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”) or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as modified herein.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

 

There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are (a) only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration and (b) more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all

 

10



 

respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator.  The two party-nominated arbitrators shall jointly nominate the third and presiding arbitrator within fifteen days of the nomination of the second arbitrator.  If any arbitrator has not been nominated within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.  For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrators appointed by the parties to such Dispute may be affiliates or interested persons of such parties but the third arbitrator elected by the party arbitrators or by the AAA shall be unaffiliated with either party.

 

The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

In rendering an award or decision (the “ Arbitration Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Arbitration Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Arbitration Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

Except to the extent expressly provided by this Guaranty or as otherwise agreed between the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action by a holder of any party, award any portion of such party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

11



 

The Arbitration Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Arbitration Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  The party against which the Arbitration Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Arbitration Award or such other date as the Arbitration Award may provide.

 

16.           Modification of Agreement .  No modification or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor any consent to any departure by any of the Subtenant Guarantors therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Landlord, and such modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the purpose for which given.  No notice to or demand on any Subtenant Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Subtenant Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.  This Guaranty may not be amended except by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf of the party against whom enforcement of such amendment is sought.

 

17.           Waiver of Rights by Landlord .  Neither any failure nor any delay on Landlord’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

18.           Severability .  In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, but this

 

12



 

Guaranty shall be reformed and construed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

 

19.           Entire Contract .  This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the place of any other instruments purporting to be an agreement of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

 

20.           Headings; Counterparts .  Headings in this Guaranty are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.  This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument, and in pleading or proving any provision of this Guaranty, it shall not be necessary to produce more than one of such counterparts.

 

21.           Remedies Cumulative .  No remedy herein conferred upon Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.

 

22.            NON-LIABILITY OF TRUSTEES .  THE DECLARATIONS OF TRUST ESTABLISHING CERTAIN ENTITIES COMPRISING THE LANDLORD, COPIES OF WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ALL AMENDMENTS THERETO (COLLECTIVELY, THE “ DECLARATIONS ”), ARE DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, PROVIDE THAT THE NAMES OF SUCH ENTITIES REFER TO THE TRUSTEES UNDER SUCH DECLARATIONS COLLECTIVELY AS TRUSTEES, BUT NOT INDIVIDUALLY OR PERSONALLY, AND THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF SUCH ENTITIES SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, SUCH ENTITIES.  ALL PERSONS DEALING WITH SUCH ENTITIES, IN ANY WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF SUCH ENTITIES FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION.

 

23.           Original Guaranty .  The Subtenant Guarantors and Landlord acknowledge and agree that this Guaranty amends and restates the Original Subtenant Guarantees in their entirety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations and that this Guaranty shall govern the rights and obligations of the Subtenant Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations from and after the date of this Guaranty.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Original Subtenant Guarantees shall continue to govern the rights and obligations of the Subtenant Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Original Subtenant Guarantees) prior to the date of this

 

13



 

Guaranty and nothing contained in this Guaranty shall operate to release the Subtenant Guarantors from any such rights or obligations.

The Secured Parties shall not be required to marshal any present or future security for (including without limitation this Agreement and the Collateral pledged hereunder), or guaranties of, the Obligations or any of them, or to resort to such security or guaranties in any particular order; and all of the rights hereunder and in respect of such securities and guaranties shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.  To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Tenant hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral, which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Secured Parties’ rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or guaranteed, and, to the maximum extent

 

16



 

permitted by applicable law, Tenant hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

NOW, THEREFORE , in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the mutual receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Original Guaranty is amended and restated to read as follows:

 

1.                                        Certain Terms .  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Guaranty shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Amended Lease No. 2.  The Amended Lease No. 2 and the Incidental Documents are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “ Amended Lease No. 2 Documents ”.

3.12   Financial Statements, Etc.   The financial statements previously delivered to Landlord by each Subtenant Guarantor, if any, fairly present the financial condition of such Subtenant Guarantor in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and there has been no material adverse change from the date thereof through the date hereof.

 

3.13   No Change in Control .  No Subtenant Guarantor shall permit the occurrence of any direct or indirect Change in Control of Tenant or of such Subtenant Guarantor.

 

4.                                        Guarantee .  Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations which are monetary obligations shall be paid in full when due and payable, whether upon demand, at the stated or accelerated maturity thereof pursuant to any Amended Lease No. 2 Document, or otherwise, and that the Guaranteed Obligations which are performance obligations shall be fully performed at the times and in the manner such performance is required by the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents.  With respect to the Guaranteed Obligations which are monetary obligations, this guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collectability and is absolute and in no way conditional or contingent.  In case any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid when due and payable or performed at the time performance is required, the Subtenant Guarantors shall, in the case of monetary obligations, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice from Landlord, pay or cause to be paid to Landlord the amount thereof as is then due and payable and unpaid (including interest and other charges, if any, due thereon through the date of payment in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents) or, in the case of non-monetary obligations, perform or cause to be performed such obligations in accordance with the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents.

5.                                        Set-Off .  Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby authorizes Landlord, at any time and without notice, to set off the whole or any portion or portions of any or all sums credited by or due from Landlord to it against amounts payable under this Guaranty.  The Landlord shall promptly notify such Subtenant Guarantor of any such set-off made by Landlord and the application made by Landlord of the proceeds thereof.

 

6.                                        Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations, Etc.   If Tenant is for any reason under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than because the same have been previously discharged in accordance with the terms of the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents), or if any other moneys included in the Guaranteed Obligations have become unrecoverable from Tenant by operation of law or for any other reason, including, without limitation, the invalidity or irregularity in whole or in part of any Guaranteed Obligation or of any Amended Lease No. 2 Document or any limitation on the liability of Tenant thereunder not contemplated by the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever, the guarantees contained in this Guaranty shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall be binding upon each Subtenant Guarantor to the same extent as if such Subtenant Guarantor at all times had been the principal debtor on all such Guaranteed Obligations.

 

7.                                        Additional Guarantees .  This Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guarantee or other security for the Guaranteed Obligations and it shall not be prejudiced or rendered unenforceable by the invalidity of any such other guarantee or security or by any waiver, amendment, release or modification thereof.

 

8.                                        Consents and Waivers, Etc.   Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby acknowledges receipt of correct and complete copies of each of the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents, and consents to all of the terms and provisions thereof, as the same may be from time to time hereafter amended or changed in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and, except as otherwise provided herein, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, waives (a) presentment, demand for payment, and protest of nonpayment, of any principal of or interest on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and of diligence, presentment, demand and protest, (c) notice of any default hereunder and any default, breach or nonperformance or Event of Default under any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents, (d) notice of the terms, time and place of any private or public sale of any

collateral held as security for the Guaranteed Obligations, (e) demand for performance or observance of, and any enforcement of any provision of, or any pursuit or exhaustion of rights or remedies against Tenant or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, under or pursuant to the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents, or any agreement directly or indirectly relating thereto and any requirements of diligence or promptness on the part of the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations in connection therewith, and (f) to the extent such Subtenant Guarantor lawfully may do so, any and all demands and notices of every kind and description with respect to the foregoing or which may be required to be given by any statute or rule of law and any defense of any kind which it may now or hereafter have with respect to this Guaranty, or any of the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents or the Guaranteed Obligations (other than that the same have been discharged in accordance with the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents).

 

9.                                        No Impairment, Etc.   The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of each of the Subtenant Guarantors under this Guaranty shall not be affected or impaired by any assignment or transfer in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations without notice to each such Subtenant Guarantor, or any waiver by Landlord or any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or by the holders of all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the performance or observance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents or any indulgence in or the extension of the time for payment by Tenant or any other guarantor of any amounts payable under or in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents or any other instrument or agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or of the time for performance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any other obligations under or arising out of any of the foregoing or the extension or renewal thereof (except that with respect to any extension of time for payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations granted by Landlord or any other holder of such Guaranteed Obligations to Tenant, such Subtenant Guarantor’s obligations to pay or perform such Guaranteed Obligation shall be subject to the same extension of time for performance), or the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement or obligation of Tenant or any other guarantor set forth in any of the foregoing, or the voluntary or involuntary sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or any other guarantor or insolvency, bankruptcy, or other similar proceedings affecting Tenant or any

 

7



 

other guarantor or any assets of Tenant or any such other guarantor, or the release or discharge of Tenant or any such other guarantor from the performance or observance of any agreement, covenant, term or condition contained in any of the foregoing without the consent of the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations by operation of law, or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.

 

10.                                  Reimbursement, Subrogation, Etc.   Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that it will not enforce or otherwise exercise any rights of reimbursement, subrogation, contribution or other similar rights against Tenant (or any other person against whom Landlord may proceed) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations prior to the payment in full of all amounts owing with respect to the Amended Lease No. 2, and until all indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord shall have been paid in full, no Subtenant Guarantor shall have any right of subrogation, and each Subtenant Guarantor waives any defense it may have based upon any election of remedies by Landlord which destroys its subrogation rights or its rights to proceed against Tenant for reimbursement, including, without limitation, any loss of rights such Subtenant Guarantor may suffer by reason of any rights, powers or remedies of Tenant in connection with any anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging the indebtedness to Landlord.  Until all obligations of Tenant pursuant to the Amended Lease No. 2 Documents shall have been paid and satisfied in full, each Subtenant Guarantor further waives any right to enforce any remedy which Landlord now has or may in the future have against Tenant, any other guarantor or any other person and any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security whatsoever now or in the future held by Landlord.

 

11.                                  Defeasance .  This Guaranty shall terminate at such time as the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full and all other obligations of the Subtenant Guarantors to Landlord under this Guaranty have been satisfied in full; provided , however , if at any time, all or any part of any payment applied on account of the Guaranteed Obligations is or must be rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Tenant), this Guaranty, to the extent such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, shall be deemed to have continued in existence notwithstanding any such termination.

covenants and agreements by or on behalf of the Subtenant Guarantors which are contained in this Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Landlord’s successors and assigns, including without limitation said holders, whether so expressed or not.

 

14.                                  Applicable Law Except as to matters regarding the internal affairs of Landlord and issues of or limitations on any personal liability of the shareholders and trustees of Landlord for obligations of Landlord, as to which the laws of the state of Landlord’s organization shall govern, this Guaranty shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts applicable to contracts between residents of Massachusetts which are to be performed entirely within Massachusetts, regardless of (a) where any such instrument is executed or delivered; or (b) where any payment or other performance required by any such instrument is made or required to be made; or (c) where any breach of any provision of any such instrument occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (d) where any action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (e) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (f) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than The Commonwealth of Massachusetts; or (g) any combination of the foregoing.

 

15.                                  Disputes .  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Guaranty (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”) or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as modified herein.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

 

There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are (a) only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration and (b) more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator.  The two party-nominated arbitrators

 

10



 

shall jointly nominate the third and presiding arbitrator within fifteen days of the nomination of the second arbitrator.  If any arbitrator has not been nominated within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.  For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrators appointed by the parties to such Dispute may be affiliates or interested persons of such parties but the third arbitrator elected by the party arbitrators or by the AAA shall be unaffiliated with either party.

 

The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

In rendering an award or decision (the “ Arbitration Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Arbitration Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Arbitration Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

Except to the extent expressly provided by this Guaranty or as otherwise agreed between the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action by a holder of any party, award any portion of such party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

The Arbitration Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy

 

11



 

between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Arbitration Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  The party against which the Arbitration Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Arbitration Award or such other date as the Arbitration Award may provide.

 

16.                                  Modification of Agreement .  No modification or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor any consent to any departure by any of the Subtenant Guarantors therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Landlord, and such modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the purpose for which given.  No notice to or demand on any Subtenant Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Subtenant Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.  This Guaranty may not be amended except by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf of the party against whom enforcement of such amendment is sought.

 

17.                                  Waiver of Rights by Landlord .  Neither any failure nor any delay on Landlord’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

18.                                  Severability .  In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, but this Guaranty shall be reformed and construed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

 

12



 

19.           Entire Contract .  This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the place of any other instruments purporting to be an agreement of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

 

20.           Headings; Counterparts .  Headings in this Guaranty are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.  This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument, and in pleading or proving any provision of this Guaranty, it shall not be necessary to produce more than one of such counterparts.

 

21.           Remedies Cumulative .  No remedy herein conferred upon Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.

 

22.            NON-LIABILITY OF TRUSTEES .  THE DECLARATIONS OF TRUST ESTABLISHING CERTAIN ENTITIES COMPRISING THE LANDLORD, COPIES OF WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ALL AMENDMENTS THERETO (COLLECTIVELY, THE “ DECLARATIONS ”), ARE DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, PROVIDE THAT THE NAMES OF SUCH ENTITIES REFER TO THE TRUSTEES UNDER SUCH DECLARATIONS COLLECTIVELY AS TRUSTEES, BUT NOT INDIVIDUALLY OR PERSONALLY, AND THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF SUCH ENTITIES SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, SUCH ENTITIES.  ALL PERSONS DEALING WITH SUCH ENTITIES, IN ANY WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF SUCH ENTITIES FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION.

 

23.           Original Guaranty .  The Subtenant Guarantors and Landlord acknowledge and agree that this Guaranty amends and restates the Original Subtenant Guarantees in their entirety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations and that this Guaranty shall govern the rights and obligations of the Subtenant Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations from and after the date of this Guaranty.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Original Subtenant Guarantees shall continue to govern the rights and obligations of the Subtenant Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Original Subtenant Guarantees) prior to the date of this Guaranty and nothing contained in this Guaranty shall operate to release the Subtenant Guarantors from any such rights or obligations.

WHEREAS , the transactions contemplated by the Amended Lease No. 4 are of direct material benefit to the Subtenant Guarantors;

 

NOW, THEREFORE , in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the mutual receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Original Guaranty is amended and restated to read as follows:

 

1.              Certain Terms .  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Guaranty shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Amended Lease No. 4.  The Amended Lease No. 4 and the Incidental Documents are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “ Amended Lease No. 4 Documents ”.

3.8   Taxes, Etc .  Each Subtenant Guarantor shall pay and discharge promptly as they become due and payable all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges or levies imposed upon such Subtenant Guarantor or the income of such Subtenant Guarantor or upon any of the property, real, personal or mixed, of such Subtenant Guarantor, or upon any part thereof, as well as all claims of any kind (including claims for labor, materials and supplies) which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien or charge upon any property and result in a material adverse change in the financial condition of such Subtenant Guarantor; provided , however , that such Subtenant Guarantor shall not be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim if the amount, applicability or validity thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings or other appropriate actions promptly initiated and diligently conducted and if such Subtenant Guarantor shall have set aside on its books such reserves of such Subtenant Guarantor, if any, with respect thereto as are required by generally accepted accounting principles.

 

3.9   Legal Existence of Subtenant Guarantors . Each Subtenant Guarantor shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its legal existence.

3.11   Insurance .  Each Subtenant Guarantor shall maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to its properties and business against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by owners of established reputation engaged in the same or similar businesses and similarly situated, in such amounts and by such methods as shall be customary for such owners and deemed adequate by such Subtenant Guarantor.

 

3.12   Financial Statements, Etc.   The financial statements previously delivered to Landlord by each Subtenant Guarantor, if any, fairly present the financial condition of such Subtenant Guarantor in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and there has been no material adverse change from the date thereof through the date hereof.

 

3.13   No Change in Control .  No Subtenant Guarantor shall permit the occurrence of any direct or indirect Change in Control of Tenant or of such Subtenant Guarantor.

 

4.             Guarantee .  Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations which are monetary obligations shall be paid in full when due and payable, whether upon demand, at the stated or accelerated maturity thereof pursuant to any Amended Lease No. 4 Document, or otherwise, and that the Guaranteed Obligations which are performance obligations shall be fully performed at the times and in the manner such performance is required by the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents.  With respect to the Guaranteed Obligations which are monetary obligations, this guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collectability and is absolute and in no way conditional or contingent.  In case any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid when due and payable or performed at the time performance is required, the Subtenant Guarantors shall, in the case of monetary obligations, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice from Landlord, pay or cause to be paid to Landlord the amount thereof as is then due and payable and unpaid (including interest and other charges, if any, due thereon through the date of payment in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents) or, in the case of non-monetary

 

5



 

obligations, perform or cause to be performed such obligations in accordance with the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents.

 

5.             Set-Off .  Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby authorizes Landlord, at any time and without notice, to set off the whole or any portion or portions of any or all sums credited by or due from Landlord to it against amounts payable under this Guaranty.  The Landlord shall promptly notify such Subtenant Guarantor of any such set-off made by Landlord and the application made by Landlord of the proceeds thereof.

 

6.             Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations, Etc.   If Tenant is for any reason under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than because the same have been previously discharged in accordance with the terms of the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents), or if any other moneys included in the Guaranteed Obligations have become unrecoverable from Tenant by operation of law or for any other reason, including, without limitation, the invalidity or irregularity in whole or in part of any Guaranteed Obligation or of any Amended Lease No. 4 Document or any limitation on the liability of Tenant thereunder not contemplated by the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever, the guarantees contained in this Guaranty shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall be binding upon each Subtenant Guarantor to the same extent as if such Subtenant Guarantor at all times had been the principal debtor on all such Guaranteed Obligations.

 

7.             Additional Guarantees .  This Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guarantee or other security for the Guaranteed Obligations and it shall not be prejudiced or rendered unenforceable by the invalidity of any such other guarantee or security or by any waiver, amendment, release or modification thereof.

 

8.             Consents and Waivers, Etc.   Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby acknowledges receipt of correct and complete copies of each of the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents, and consents to all of the terms and provisions thereof, as the same may be from time to time hereafter amended or changed in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and, except as otherwise provided herein, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, waives (a) presentment, demand for payment, and protest of nonpayment, of any principal of or interest on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and of diligence, presentment, demand and protest, (c) notice of any default hereunder and any default, breach or

 

6



 

nonperformance or Event of Default under any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents, (d) notice of the terms, time and place of any private or public sale of any collateral held as security for the Guaranteed Obligations, (e) demand for performance or observance of, and any enforcement of any provision of, or any pursuit or exhaustion of rights or remedies against Tenant or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, under or pursuant to the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents, or any agreement directly or indirectly relating thereto and any requirements of diligence or promptness on the part of the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations in connection therewith, and (f) to the extent such Subtenant Guarantor lawfully may do so, any and all demands and notices of every kind and description with respect to the foregoing or which may be required to be given by any statute or rule of law and any defense of any kind which it may now or hereafter have with respect to this Guaranty, or any of the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents or the Guaranteed Obligations (other than that the same have been discharged in accordance with the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents).

 

9.             No Impairment, Etc.   The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of each of the Subtenant Guarantors under this Guaranty shall not be affected or impaired by any assignment or transfer in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations without notice to each such Subtenant Guarantor, or any waiver by Landlord or any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or by the holders of all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the performance or observance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents or any indulgence in or the extension of the time for payment by Tenant or any other guarantor of any amounts payable under or in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents or any other instrument or agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or of the time for performance by Tenant or any other guarantor of any other obligations under or arising out of any of the foregoing or the extension or renewal thereof (except that with respect to any extension of time for payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations granted by Landlord or any other holder of such Guaranteed Obligations to Tenant, such Subtenant Guarantor’s obligations to pay or perform such Guaranteed Obligation shall be subject to the same extension of time for performance), or the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement or obligation of Tenant or any other guarantor set forth in any of the foregoing, or the voluntary or involuntary

 

7



 

sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or any other guarantor or insolvency, bankruptcy, or other similar proceedings affecting Tenant or any other guarantor or any assets of Tenant or any such other guarantor, or the release or discharge of Tenant or any such other guarantor from the performance or observance of any agreement, covenant, term or condition contained in any of the foregoing without the consent of the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations by operation of law, or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.

 

10.           Reimbursement, Subrogation, Etc.   Each Subtenant Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that it will not enforce or otherwise exercise any rights of reimbursement, subrogation, contribution or other similar rights against Tenant (or any other person against whom Landlord may proceed) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations prior to the payment in full of all amounts owing with respect to the Amended Lease No. 4, and until all indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord shall have been paid in full, no Subtenant Guarantor shall have any right of subrogation, and each Subtenant Guarantor waives any defense it may have based upon any election of remedies by Landlord which destroys its subrogation rights or its rights to proceed against Tenant for reimbursement, including, without limitation, any loss of rights such Subtenant Guarantor may suffer by reason of any rights, powers or remedies of Tenant in connection with any anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging the indebtedness to Landlord.  Until all obligations of Tenant pursuant to the Amended Lease No. 4 Documents shall have been paid and satisfied in full, each Subtenant Guarantor further waives any right to enforce any remedy which Landlord now has or may in the future have against Tenant, any other guarantor or any other person and any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security whatsoever now or in the future held by Landlord.

14.            Applicable Law Except as to matters regarding the internal affairs of Landlord and issues of or limitations on any personal liability of the shareholders and trustees of Landlord for obligations of Landlord, as to which the laws of the state of Landlord’s organization shall govern, this Guaranty shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts applicable to contracts between residents of Massachusetts which are to be performed entirely within Massachusetts, regardless of (a) where any such instrument is executed or delivered; or (b) where any payment or other performance required by any such instrument is made or required to be made; or (c) where any breach of any provision of any such instrument occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (d) where any action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (e) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (f) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than The Commonwealth of Massachusetts; or (g) any combination of the foregoing.

 

15.            Disputes .  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Guaranty (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”) or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as modified herein.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

Except to the extent expressly provided by this Guaranty or as otherwise agreed between the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action by a holder of any party, award any portion of such party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

11



 

The Arbitration Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Arbitration Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  The party against which the Arbitration Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Arbitration Award or such other date as the Arbitration Award may provide.

 

16.            Modification of Agreement .  No modification or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor any consent to any departure by any of the Subtenant Guarantors therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Landlord, and such modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the purpose for which given.  No notice to or demand on any Subtenant Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Subtenant Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.  This Guaranty may not be amended except by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf of the party against whom enforcement of such amendment is sought.

 

17.            Waiver of Rights by Landlord .  Neither any failure nor any delay on Landlord’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

18.            Severability .  In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, but this

 

12



 

Guaranty shall be reformed and construed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

 

19.            Entire Contract .  This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the place of any other instruments purporting to be an agreement of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

 

20.            Headings; Counterparts .  Headings in this Guaranty are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.  This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument, and in pleading or proving any provision of this Guaranty, it shall not be necessary to produce more than one of such counterparts.

 

21.            Remedies Cumulative .  No remedy herein conferred upon Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.

 

22.            NON-LIABILITY OF TRUSTEES .  THE DECLARATIONS OF TRUST ESTABLISHING CERTAIN ENTITIES COMPRISING THE LANDLORD, COPIES OF WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ALL AMENDMENTS THERETO (COLLECTIVELY, THE “ DECLARATIONS ”), ARE DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, PROVIDE THAT THE NAMES OF SUCH ENTITIES REFER TO THE TRUSTEES UNDER SUCH DECLARATIONS COLLECTIVELY AS TRUSTEES, BUT NOT INDIVIDUALLY OR PERSONALLY, AND THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF SUCH ENTITIES SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, SUCH ENTITIES.  ALL PERSONS DEALING WITH SUCH ENTITIES, IN ANY WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF SUCH ENTITIES FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION.

 

23.            Original Guaranty .  The Subtenant Guarantors and Landlord acknowledge and agree that this Guaranty amends and restates the Original Subtenant Guarantees in their entirety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations and that this Guaranty shall govern the rights and obligations of the Subtenant Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations from and after the date of this Guaranty.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Original Subtenant Guarantees shall continue to govern the rights and obligations of the Subtenant Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Original Subtenant Guarantees) prior to the date of this

 

13



 

Guaranty and nothing contained in this Guaranty shall operate to release the Subtenant Guarantors from any such rights or obligations.

(i)                                                with respect to the General Intangibles to ask for, demand, collect, receive, compound and give acquittance therefor or any part thereof, to extend the time of payment of, compromise or settle for cash, credit or otherwise, and upon any terms and conditions, any thereof, to exercise and enforce any rights and remedies in respect thereof, and to file any claims, commence, maintain or discontinue any actions, suits or other proceedings deemed by the Secured Parties necessary or advisable for the purpose of collecting or enforcing payment and performance thereof;

 

(ii)                                             to take possession of any or all of the Collateral and to use, hold, store, operate, merge and/or control the same and to exclude Tenant and all Persons claiming under it wholly or partly therefrom, and, for that purpose, to enter, with the aid and assistance of any Person or Persons and with or without legal process, any premises where the Collateral, or any part thereof, are, or may be, placed or assembled, and to remove any such Collateral;

 

(iii)                                          from time to time, at the expense of Tenant, to make all such repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to and of the Collateral as the Secured Parties may reasonably deem proper; to carry on the business and to exercise all rights and powers of Tenant in respect to the Collateral, as the Secured Parties shall deem best, including the right to

 

11



 

enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the leasing, management and/or operation of the Collateral or any part thereof as the Secured Parties may see fit; to collect and receive all rents, issues, profits, fees, revenues and other income of the same and every part thereof which rents, issues, profits, fees, revenues and other income may be applied to pay the expenses of holding and operating the Collateral and of conducting the business thereof, and of all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements, and to make all payments which the Secured Parties may be required or may elect to make, if any, for taxes, assessments, insurance and other charges upon the Collateral or any part thereof, and all other payments which the Secured Parties may be required or authorized to make under any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, reasonable legal costs and attorneys’ fees);

 

(iv)                                         to execute any instrument and do all other things necessary and proper to protect and preserve and realize upon the Collateral and the other rights contemplated hereby;

 

(v)                                            upon notice to such effect, to require Tenant to deliver, at Tenant’s expense, any or all Collateral which is reasonably movable to the Secured Parties at a place designated by the Secured Parties, and after delivery thereof Tenant shall have no further claim to or interest in the Collateral; and

 

(vi)                                         without obligation to resort to other security, at any time and from time to time, to sell, re-sell, assign and deliver all or any of the Collateral, in one or more parcels at the same or different times, and all right, title and interest, claim and demand therein and right of redemption thereof, at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and on such terms as the Secured Parties may determine, with the amounts realized from any such sale to be applied to the Secured Obligations in the manner determined by the Secured Parties.

 

12



 

Tenant hereby agrees that all of the foregoing may be effected without demand, advertisement or notice (except as hereinafter provided or as may be required by law), all of which (except as hereinafter provided) are hereby expressly waived, to the maximum extent permitted by law.  The Secured Parties shall not be obligated to do any of the acts hereinabove authorized and in the event that the Secured Parties elect to do any such act, the Secured Parties shall not be responsible to Tenant.

 

(b)                                  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Secured Parties may take legal proceedings for the appointment of a receiver or receivers (to which the Secured Parties shall be entitled as a matter of right) to take possession of the Collateral pending the sale thereof pursuant either to the powers of sale granted by this Agreement or to a judgment, order or decree made in any judicial proceeding for the foreclosure or involving the enforcement of this Agreement.  If, after the exercise of any or all of such rights and remedies, any of the Obligations shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied, Tenant shall remain liable for any deficiency or performance thereof, as applicable.

 

(c)                                   Upon any sale of any of the Collateral, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or under judgment, order or decree in any judicial proceeding for the foreclosure or involving the enforcement of this Agreement:

 

(i)                                                the Secured Parties may bid for and purchase the property being sold and, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property in its own absolute right without further accountability, and may, in paying the purchase money therefor, deliver any instruments evidencing the Obligations or agree to the satisfaction of all or a portion of the Obligations in lieu of cash in payment of the amount which shall be payable thereon, and such instruments, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be returned to the Secured Parties after being appropriately stamped to show partial payment;

 

(ii)                                             the Secured Parties may make and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient deed, bill of sale and instrument of assignment and transfer of the property sold;

 

13



 

(iii)                                          all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity or otherwise, of Tenant of, in and to the property so sold shall be divested; such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Tenant, its successors and assigns, and against any and all Persons claiming or who may claim the property sold or any part thereof from, through or under Tenant, its successors or assigns;

 

(iv)                                         the receipt of the Secured Parties or of the officers thereof making such sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale for his or their purchase money, and such purchaser or purchasers, and his or their assigns or personal representatives, shall not, after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt of the Secured Parties or of such officer therefor, be obliged to see to the application of such purchase money or be in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof; and

 

(v)                                            to the extent that it may lawfully do so, Tenant agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take advantage of, any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws, or any law permitting it to direct the order in which the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sold, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any other document, the Amended Lease No. 4 or any other document or agreement entered into in connection herewith or therewith, and Tenant hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such laws and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted or delegated to the Secured Parties in this Agreement, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such laws were in force.

 

In the event of any sale of Collateral pursuant to this Section 7 , the Secured Parties shall, at least ten (10) days before such

 

14



 

sale, give Tenant written notice of its intention to sell, except that, if the Secured Parties shall determine in their reasonable discretion that any of the Collateral threatens to decline in value, any such sale may be made upon three (3) days’ written notice to Tenant, which time periods Tenant hereby agrees are reasonable.

 

(d)                                  The Secured Parties are hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Tenant in its name and stead, to make all necessary deeds, bills of sale and instruments of assignment and transfer of the property sold pursuant to this Section 7 and for such other purposes as are necessary or desirable to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement, and for that purpose it may execute and deliver all necessary deeds, bills of sale and instruments of assignment and transfer, and may substitute one or more Persons with like power, Tenant hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney, or such substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do by virtue hereof.  If so requested by the Secured Parties or by any purchaser, Tenant shall ratify and confirm any such sale or transfer by executing and delivering to the Secured Parties or to such purchaser all property, deeds, bills of sale, instruments or assignment and transfer and releases as may be designated in any such request.

 

Section 8 .   Application of Moneys .   All moneys which the Secured Parties shall receive pursuant hereto shall first be applied (to the extent thereof) to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the administration and enforcement of, or the preservation of any rights under, this Agreement or the Amended Lease No. 4 (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel and agents), and the balance, if any, shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest, charges and fees on, and then to outstanding principal of, any Obligations or any other obligations of Tenant (or its affiliates) to the Secured Parties, and then to any other amounts outstanding on any such Obligations and then as required by law to any other parties having an interest therein.

 

Section 9 .   Waivers, Etc.   Tenant, on its own behalf and on behalf of its successors and assigns, hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and, except as is otherwise specifically provided herein, all other demands and notices in connection with this Agreement or the enforcement of the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder or in connection with any Obligations or any Collateral; waives all rights to require a marshaling of assets by the Secured Parties; consents to and waives notice of

 

15



 

(i) the substitution, release or surrender of any Collateral, (ii) the addition or release of Persons primarily or secondarily liable on any Obligation or on any Collateral, (iii) the acceptance of partial payments on any Collateral and/or the settlement or compromise thereof, (iv) any requirement of diligence or promptness on the part of the Secured Parties in the enforcement of any rights in respect of any Collateral or any other agreement or instrument directly or indirectly relating thereto, and (v) any enforcement of any present or future agreement or instrument relating directly or indirectly to the Collateral.  No delay or omission on the part of the Secured Parties or any holder of Obligations in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right hereunder.  No waiver of any such right on any one occasion shall be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right on any future occasion.  No course of dealing between Tenant and the Secured Parties or any holder of Obligations, nor any failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured Parties or any holder of Obligations, any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any of the Obligations, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

Tenant further waives any right it may have under the constitution of any state or commonwealth in which any of the Collateral may be located, or under the Constitution of the United States of America, to notice (except for notice specifically required hereby) or to a judicial hearing prior to the exercise of any right or remedy provided by this Agreement to the Secured Parties, and waives its rights, if any, to set aside or invalidate any sale duly consummated in accordance with the foregoing provisions hereof on the grounds (if such be the case) that the sale was consummated without a prior judicial hearing.  TENANT’S WAIVERS UNDER THIS SECTION 9 HAVE BEEN MADE VOLUNTARILY, INTELLIGENTLY AND KNOWINGLY AND AFTER TENANT HAS BEEN APPRISED AND COUNSELED BY ITS ATTORNEYS AS TO THE NATURE THEREOF AND ITS POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE RIGHTS.

 

The Secured Parties shall not be required to marshal any present or future security for (including without limitation this Agreement and the Collateral pledged hereunder), or guaranties of, the Obligations or any of them, or to resort to such security or guaranties in any particular order; and all of the rights hereunder and in respect of such securities and guaranties shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.  To the maximum extent

 

16



 

permitted by applicable law, Tenant hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral, which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Secured Parties’ rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or guaranteed, and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Tenant hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

 

Section 10 .   Further Assurances as to Collateral; Attorney-in-Fact .   From time to time hereafter, Tenant will execute and deliver, or will cause to be executed and delivered, such additional instruments, certificates or documents (including, without limitation, financing statements, renewal statements, mortgages, collateral assignments and other security documents), and will take all such actions as the Secured Parties may reasonably request, for the purposes of implementing or effectuating the provisions of this Agreement or of more fully perfecting or renewing the Secured Parties’ rights with respect to the Collateral (or with respect to any additions thereto or replacements or proceeds thereof or with respect to any other property or assets hereafter acquired by Tenant which may be deemed to be a part of the Collateral) pursuant hereto and thereto.  The Secured Parties are hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, of Tenant for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action, including, without limitation, executing, delivering and filing applications, certificates, instruments and other documents and papers with governmental authorities, and executing any instruments, including without limitation financing or continuation statements, deeds to secure debt, mortgages, assignments, conveyances, assignments and transfers which are required to be taken or executed by Tenant under this Agreement, on its behalf and in its name which appointment is coupled with an interest, is irrevocable and durable and shall survive the subsequent dissolution, disability or incapacity of Tenant.

 

Section 11 .   Disputes .  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Guaranty (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”) or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance

 

17



 

with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as modified herein.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

 

There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are (a) only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration and (b) more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator.  The two party-nominated arbitrators shall jointly nominate the third and presiding arbitrator within fifteen days of the nomination of the second arbitrator.  If any arbitrator has not been nominated within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.  For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrators appointed by the parties to such Dispute may be affiliates or interested persons of such parties but the third arbitrator elected by the party arbitrators or by the AAA shall be unaffiliated with either party.

 

The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

In rendering an award or decision (the “ Arbitration Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Arbitration Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Arbitration Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

Except to the extent expressly provided by this Guaranty or as otherwise agreed between the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including

 

18



 

attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action by a holder of any party, award any portion of such party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

The Arbitration Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Arbitration Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  The party against which the Arbitration Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Arbitration Award or such other date as the Arbitration Award may provide.

 

Section 12 Appointment of Agent for Secured Parties Each of the Secured Parties hereby appoints SNH CHS Properties Trust as its agent for the following purposes under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the full power and authority to act on the Secured Parties’ behalf for such purposes): (i) to give or receive notices, demands, claims and other communications on behalf of the Secured Parties under this Agreement and (ii) to receive and hold any and all Collateral which is to be delivered from time to time by Tenant to the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

19



 

Section 13 Miscellaneous .

 

(a)            Tenant agrees that its obligations and the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder and in respect of the Obligations may be enforced by specific performance hereof and thereof and by temporary, preliminary and/or final injunctive relief relating hereto and thereto, without necessity for proof by the Secured Parties or any holder of the Obligations that it would otherwise suffer irreparable harm, and Tenant hereby consents to the issuance of such specific and injunctive relief.

 

(b)            Any notice or demand upon Tenant or the Secured Parties shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given when given in accordance with the provisions of the Amended Lease No. 4.

 

(c)            None of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any manner whatsoever unless in writing duly signed by Tenant and the Secured  Parties.  No notice to or demand on Tenant in any case shall entitle Tenant to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Secured Parties to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

 

(d)            The obligations of Tenant hereunder shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be impaired by, (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of Tenant; (ii) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of, any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect of this Agreement, the Amended Lease No. 4 or any document or agreement executed in connection herewith or therewith, the Obligations or any security for any of the Obligations; or (iii) any amendment to or modification of any of the Amended Lease No. 4 or any document or agreement executed in connection herewith or therewith, the Obligations or any security for any of the Obligations; whether or not Tenant shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing.  The rights and remedies of the Secured Parties herein provided for are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Secured Parties would otherwise have, including, without limitation, under the Amended Lease No. 4 or any document or agreement executed in connection herewith or therewith.  This Agreement is intended as a supplement for and is not intended to supersede in any respect the Amended Lease No. 4 or any document or agreement executed in connection herewith or therewith.  Each Entity comprising Tenant hereunder shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment and performance of each and every obligation and liability of Tenant hereunder.

 

20



 

(e)            This Agreement shall be binding upon Tenant and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties, and its respective successors and assigns.  All agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

 

(f)             The descriptive headings of the several sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

 

(g)            Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibitions or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

(h)            This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts applicable to contracts between residents of Massachusetts which are to be performed entirely within Massachusetts, regardless of (i) where this Agreement is executed or delivered; or (ii) where any payment or other performance required by this Agreement is made or required to be made; or (iii) where any breach of any provision of this Agreement occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (iv) where any action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (v) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principle place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (vi) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; or (vii) any combination of the foregoing.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that matters of title, or creation, perfection and priority of the security interests created hereby, or procedural issues of foreclosures are required to be governed by the laws of the state in which the Collateral, or relevant part thereof, is located, the laws of such State shall apply.

 

Section 14 NONLIABILITY OF TRUSTEES .  THE DECLARATIONS OF TRUST ESTABLISHING CERTAIN ENTITIES COMPRISING THE SECURED PARTIES, COPIES OF WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ALL AMENDMENTS THERETO (COLLECTIVELY, THE “ DECLARATIONS ”), ARE DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, PROVIDE THAT THE NAMES OF SUCH ENTITIES REFER TO THE TRUSTEES

 

21



 

UNDER SUCH DECLARATIONS COLLECTIVELY AS TRUSTEES, BUT NOT INDIVIDUALLY OR PERSONALLY, AND THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF SUCH ENTITIES SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, SUCH ENTITIES.  ALL PERSONS DEALING WITH SUCH ENTITIES, IN ANY WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF SUCH ENTITIES FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION.

 

Section 15 Original Security Agreements .  The Secured Parties and Tenant acknowledge and agree that this Agreement amends and restates the Original Security Agreements in their entirety with respect to the Collateral and that this Agreement shall govern the rights and obligations of the Secured Parties and Tenant with respect to the Collateral from and after the date of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Original Security Agreements shall continue to govern the rights and obligations of the Secured Parties and Tenant with respect to the Collateral prior to the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge and agree that the Original Security Agreements are hereby terminated with respect to any collateral relating to the properties listed on Schedule 3 attached hereto and made a part hereof.

Upon the request of the Secured Parties, any Subtenant shall provide to the Secured Parties a current list of its Equipment.

 

Section 5 .   Financing Statements; Documentary Stamp Taxes .

 

(a)                                   Each Subtenant shall, at its own expense, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Secured Parties from time to time such lists, descriptions and designations of inventory, warehouse receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments and take such further steps relating to the Collateral and other property or rights covered by the security interest hereby granted, which the Secured Parties reasonably deem appropriate or advisable to perfect, preserve or protect their security interest in the Collateral.  Each Subtenant authorizes the Secured Parties to file any such financing statements without the signature of such Subtenant and such Subtenant will pay all applicable filing fees and related expenses.  To the extent permitted by law, a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or a financing statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement.

of collecting or enforcing payment and performance thereof;

 

(ii)                                             to take possession of any or all of the Collateral and to use, hold, store, operate, merge and/or control the same and to exclude such Subtenant and all Persons claiming under it wholly or partly therefrom, and, for that purpose, to enter, with the aid and assistance of any Person or Persons and with or without legal process, any premises where the Collateral, or any part thereof, are, or may be, placed or assembled, and to remove any such Collateral;

 

(iii)                                          from time to time, at the expense of such Subtenant, to make all such repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to and of the Collateral as the Secured Parties may reasonably deem proper; to carry on the business and to exercise all rights and powers of such Subtenant in respect to the Collateral, as the Secured Parties shall deem best, including the right to enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the leasing, management and/or operation of the Collateral or any part thereof as the Secured Parties may see fit; to collect and receive all rents, issues, profits, fees, revenues and other income of the same and every part thereof which rents, issues, profits, fees, revenues and other income may be applied to pay the expenses of holding and operating the Collateral and of conducting the business thereof, and of all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements, and to make all payments which the Secured Parties may be required or may elect to make, if any, for taxes, assessments, insurance and other charges upon the Collateral or any part thereof, and all other payments which the Secured Parties may be required or authorized to make under any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, reasonable legal costs and attorneys’ fees);

any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof; and

 

(v)                                            to the extent that it may lawfully do so, each Subtenant agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take advantage of, any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws, or any law permitting it to direct the order in which the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sold, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any other document, the Amended Lease No. 4 or any other document or agreement entered into in connection herewith or therewith, and each Subtenant hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such laws and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted or delegated to the Secured Parties in this Agreement, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such laws were in force.

 

In the event of any sale of Collateral pursuant to this Section 7 , the Secured Parties shall, at least ten (10) days before such sale, give the applicable Subtenant written notice of its intention to sell, except that, if the Secured Parties shall determine in its reasonable discretion that any of such Collateral threatens to decline in value, any such sale may be made upon three (3) days’ written notice to the applicable Subtenant, which time periods each Subtenant hereby agrees are reasonable.

 

(d)  The Secured Parties are hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of each Subtenant in its name and stead, to make all necessary deeds, bills of sale and instruments of assignment and transfer of the property sold pursuant to this Section 7 and for such other purposes as are necessary or desirable to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement, and for that purpose it may execute and deliver all necessary deeds, bills of sale and instruments of assignment and transfer, and may substitute one or more Persons with like power, each Subtenant hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney, or such substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do by virtue hereof.  If so requested by the Secured

 

15



 

Parties or by any purchaser, each Subtenant shall ratify and confirm any such sale or transfer by executing and delivering to the Secured Parties or to such purchaser all property, deeds, bills of sale, instruments or assignment and transfer and releases as may be designated in any such request.

 

Section 8 .   Application of Moneys .   All moneys which the Secured Parties shall receive pursuant hereto shall first be applied (to the extent thereof) to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the administration and enforcement of, or the preservation of any rights under, this Agreement or the Amended Lease No. 4 (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel and agents) and the balance, if any, shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest, charges and fees on, and then to outstanding principal of, any Obligations or any other obligations of Tenant or the Subtenants (or their affiliates) to the Secured Parties, and then to any other amounts outstanding on any such Obligations and then as required by law to any other parties having an interest therein.

 

Section 9 .   Waivers, Etc.   Each Subtenant, on its own behalf and on behalf of its successors and assigns, hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and, except as is otherwise specifically provided herein, all other demands and notices in connection with this Agreement or the enforcement of the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder or in connection with any Obligations or any Collateral; waives all rights to require a marshaling of assets by the Secured Parties; consents to and waives notice of (i) the substitution, release or surrender of any Collateral, (ii) the addition or release of Persons primarily or secondarily liable on any Obligation or on any Collateral, (iii) the acceptance of partial payments on any Collateral and/or the settlement or compromise thereof, (iv) any requirement of diligence or promptness on the part of the Secured Parties in the enforcement of any rights in respect of any Collateral or any other agreement or instrument directly or indirectly relating thereto, and (v) any enforcement of any present or future agreement or instrument relating directly or indirectly to the Collateral.  No delay or omission on the part of the Secured Parties or any holder of Obligations in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right hereunder.  No waiver of any such right on any one occasion shall be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right on any future occasion.  No course of dealing between any Subtenant and the Secured Parties or any holder of Obligations, nor any failure to exercise, nor any

 

16



 

delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured Parties or any holder of Obligations, any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any of the Obligations, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

Each Subtenant further waives any right it may have under the constitution of any state or commonwealth in which any of the Collateral may be located, or under the Constitution of the United States of America, to notice (except for notice specifically required hereby) or to a judicial hearing prior to the exercise of any right or remedy provided by this Agreement to the Secured Parties, and waives its rights, if any, to set aside or invalidate any sale duly consummated in accordance with the foregoing provisions hereof on the grounds (if such be the case) that the sale was consummated without a prior judicial hearing.  EACH SUBTENANT’S WAIVERS UNDER THIS SECTION 9 HAVE BEEN MADE VOLUNTARILY, INTELLIGENTLY AND KNOWINGLY AND AFTER SUCH SUBTENANT HAS BEEN APPRISED AND COUNSELED BY ITS ATTORNEYS AS TO THE NATURE THEREOF AND ITS POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE RIGHTS.

 

The Secured Parties shall not be required to marshal any present or future security for (including without limitation this Agreement and the Collateral pledged hereunder), or guaranties of, the Obligations or any of them, or to resort to such security or guaranties in any particular order; and all of the rights hereunder and in respect of such securities and guaranties shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.  To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Subtenant hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral, which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Secured Parties’ rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or guaranteed, and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Subtenant hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

 

Section 10 .   Further Assurances as to Collateral; Attorney-in-Fact .   From time to time hereafter, each Subtenant will execute and deliver, or will cause to be executed and delivered, such additional instruments, certificates or documents (including, without limitation, financing statements, renewal statements, mortgages, collateral assignments and other security

 

17



 

documents), and will take all such actions as the Secured Parties may reasonably request, for the purposes of implementing or effectuating the provisions of this Agreement or of more fully perfecting or renewing the Secured Parties’ rights with respect to the Collateral (or with respect to any additions thereto or replacements or proceeds thereof or with respect to any other property or assets hereafter acquired by such Subtenant which may be deemed to be a part of the Collateral) pursuant hereto and thereto.  The Secured Parties are hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, of the Subtenants for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action, including, without limitation, executing, delivering and filing applications, certificates, instruments and other documents and papers with governmental authorities, and executing any instruments, including without limitation financing or continuation statements, deeds to secure debt, mortgages, assignments, conveyances, assignments and transfers which are required to be taken or executed by any Subtenant under this Agreement, on its behalf and in its name which appointment is coupled with an interest, is irrevocable and durable and shall survive the subsequent dissolution, disability or incapacity of such Subtenant.

 

Section 11 .   Disputes .  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Guaranty (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”) or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as modified herein.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

 

There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are (a) only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration and (b) more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator.  The two party-nominated arbitrators

 

18



 

shall jointly nominate the third and presiding arbitrator within fifteen days of the nomination of the second arbitrator.  If any arbitrator has not been nominated within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.  For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrators appointed by the parties to such Dispute may be affiliates or interested persons of such parties but the third arbitrator elected by the party arbitrators or by the AAA shall be unaffiliated with either party.

 

The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

In rendering an award or decision (the “ Arbitration Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Arbitration Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Arbitration Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

Except to the extent expressly provided by this Guaranty or as otherwise agreed between the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action by a holder of any party, award any portion of such party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

19



 

The Arbitration Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Arbitration Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  The party against which the Arbitration Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Arbitration Award or such other date as the Arbitration Award may provide.
