Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Acquisition of Indiana Communities
On May 12, 2011, we announced that we have entered into agreements, or the Purchase Agreements, to acquire six senior living communities located in Indiana. The aggregate purchase price, excluding closing costs, is approximately $122.8 million, including the assumption of approximately $19.5 million of mortgage loans secured by three of the communities. We expect to acquire these communities starting in June 2011, subject to various conditions to closing, including required regulatory approvals and lender consents for our assumption of the mortgage loans.
The six communities primarily offer independent and assisted living services which are paid by residents from their private resources. The 738 living units in these communities include 191 independent living apartments, 525 assisted living suites and 22 suites which offer specialized Alzheimers care. The current occupancy rate at these six communities is 91%.
We expect to fund the cash portion of the purchase price, equal to approximately $103.3 million, with the proceeds of a bridge loan, or the Bridge Loan, from Senior Housing Properties Trust, or SNH, for up to $80 million and by using cash on hand and drawings under our $35 million revolving secured line of credit. See Bridge Loan below for more information about the Bridge Loan.
We were a 100% owned subsidiary of SNH before December 31, 2001, when SNH distributed substantially all of our then outstanding shares of common stock to its shareholders. In order to effect this spin off and to govern relations after the spin off, we entered into a transaction agreement with SNH under which, among other things, we agreed that, so long as we are a tenant of SNH or so long as we have a business management agreement with Reit Management & Research LLC, or RMR, we will not acquire or finance any real estate of a type then owned or financed by SNH or any other company managed by RMR without first giving SNH or the other company managed by RMR, as applicable, the opportunity to acquire or finance real estate investments of the type in which SNH or the other company managed by RMR, respectively, invests. In connection with the Purchase Agreements, SNH waived this right of first refusal to acquire the six communities.
See Information Regarding Certain Relationships below for more information about our dealings and relationships with SNH and RMR.
The descriptions of the Purchase Agreements are not complete and are subject to and qualified in their entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreements (including the amendments thereto), copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 to 10.15 of this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
Bridge Loan
As described above, we expect to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the six communities located in Indiana with the proceeds of the Bridge Loan. On May 12, 2011, we and SNH entered into a loan agreement, or the Bridge Loan Agreement, under which SNH has agreed to lend us up to $80 million to fund our purchases under the Purchase Agreements. The Bridge Loan will be secured by mortgages on three of the senior living communities in Indiana that we intend to acquire as described above and on four
of our senior living communities in North Carolina, in each case including related furniture, fixtures and equipment.
The Bridge Loan matures on July 1, 2012 and bears interest at a rate equal to the annual rates of interest applicable to SNHs borrowings under its revolving credit facility, plus 1%. The Bridge Loan Agreement contains various covenants, including restrictions on our ability to incur liens upon or dispose of the collateral securing the Bridge Loan. The Bridge Loan Agreement also contains events of default, including non-payment, a change in control of us, and certain events of insolvency. We also agreed that, in certain circumstances, if SNH acquires one or more of the Indiana communities securing the Bridge Loan pursuant to provisions of the Bridge Loan Agreement, we will enter a lease of those communities. The terms of the Bridge Loan Agreement were reviewed and approved by special committees of each of our Board of Directors and SNHs board of trustees composed solely of our Independent Directors and independent trustees who are not also Directors or trustees of the other party and who were represented by separate counsel.
The description of the Bridge Loan Agreement is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Bridge Loan Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.16 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
Operation of Southeast Communities
In March 2011, SNH announced that it had agreed to acquire 20 senior living communities located in five states in the Southeast United States. SNH has advised us that it expects to acquire these communities starting in June 2011. The 20 senior living communities primarily offer independent and assisted living services which are primarily paid by residents from their private resources. The 2,111 living units in these communities include 814 independent living apartments, 939 assisted living suites, 311 suites which offer specialized Alzheimers care and 47 skilled nursing beds. On May 12, 2011, we entered into agreements to manage 15 of these 20 communities, or the Managed Communities, under long term contracts with SNH. We expect to lease the remaining five communities from SNH, or the Leased Communities, when it acquires them.
Under the management contracts for the Managed Communities and a related pooling agreement, which we collectively refer to as the Management Contracts, we will be paid a management fee equal to 3% of the Gross Revenues, as defined in the Management Contracts, realized at the Managed Communities, which we expect to be approximately $1.8 to $2.0 million during the first year based on the results of the Managed Communities in 2010, plus an incentive fee equal to 35% of the Net Operating Income, as defined in the Management Contracts, after payment to SNH of an agreed upon minimum return equal to 8% of Invested Capital, as defined in the Management Contracts. The Management Contracts have an initial term of 20 years, and we have options of two consecutive renewal terms of 15 years each to extend all, but not less than all, of the Management Contracts. We have a limited right to require underperforming facilities subject to the Management Contracts to be sold, and after December 31, 2017, SNH has the right to terminate the Management Contracts if it does not receive its minimum return in each of three consecutive years, subject to certain cure rights. The terms of the Management Contracts were reviewed and approved by special committees of each of our Board of Directors and SNHs board of trustees composed solely of our Independent Directors and independent trustees who are not also Directors or trustees of the other party and who were represented by separate counsel.
The Leased Communities would be added to the leases currently existing between us and SNH that we refer to as Lease No. 1, Lease No. 2 and Lease No. 4, or the Lease Additions. We expect our aggregate minimum rent under those leases to increase by approximately $6.9 million per year, with percentage rent
to commence in 2013 with respect to these communities. For more information about our leases with SNH, please refer to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, or our Annual Report (including the section captioned Properties SNH Leases).
The Management Contracts and Lease Additions will become effective if and when SNH acquires the related senior living communities. The closing of SNHs acquisition of these communities is subject to satisfaction of various conditions to closing, including various regulatory and lender consents. Accordingly, we can provide no assurance as to when we will begin to operate or lease these communities, if at all.
The description of the Management Contracts is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to a representative form thereof or a copy thereof filed as Exhibits 10.17 and 10.18 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
Amendment to Business Management Agreement
On May 12, 2011, we and RMR entered into an amendment to our business management and shared services agreement, or the Business Management Agreement. The amendment adjusted the determination of the fees payable by us to RMR under the Business Management Agreement. The Business Management Agreement provides for compensation to RMR at an annual business management fee equal to 0.6% of our revenues. As amended, revenues are defined as our total revenues from all sources reportable under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, less any revenues reportable by us with respect to facilities and other properties for which we provide management services plus the gross revenues at those facilities and other properties determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the amendment also amended certain procedures for the arbitration of disputes pursuant to the Business Management Agreement. The terms of the amendment described above were reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, which consists solely of our Independent Directors.
The description of the Business Management Agreement is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy thereof filed as Exhibit 10.19 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
Information Regarding Certain Relationships
SNH is our former parent company, our largest landlord, and our largest shareholder. As of May 12, 2011, SNH owned approximately 9% of our outstanding shares of common stock. We have numerous continuing relationships with SNH, including the arrangements referred to above in this report.
RMR provides management services to both us and SNH. One of our Managing Directors, Mr. Barry Portnoy, is Chairman and majority owner of RMR and serves as a managing trustee of SNH. Our other Managing Director, Mr. Gerard Martin, is a director of RMR. Our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer are both Senior Vice Presidents of RMR. Mr. Portnoys son, Mr. Adam Portnoy, is an owner, President, Chief Executive Officer and a Director of RMR and serves as a managing trustee of SNH.
We currently own approximately 14.29% of the outstanding equity of Affiliates Insurance Company, or AIC. The other shareholders of AIC are RMR and five other companies to which RMR provides
management services, including SNH. Four of our Directors and nearly all of the trustees and directors of the other AIC shareholders currently serve on the board of directors of AIC. In 2010, AIC designed a combination property insurance program for us and other AIC shareholders in which AIC participated as a reinsurer.

Item 8.01. Other Events.
Director Compensation; Share Grants
On May 9, 2011, we changed our director compensation arrangements. A summary of our currently effective director compensation arrangements is filed as Exhibit 10.20 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
On May 9, 2011, we granted each of our directors 7,500 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share, valued at $7.97, the closing price of our common shares on the New York Stock Exchange on that day, pursuant to the director compensation arrangements described above.
Lease for Our Headquarters
On May 12, 2011, we entered into a lease with an affiliate of RMR, as landlord, or the Landlord, with respect to approximately 36,500 rentable square feet located in Newton, Massachusetts that serves as our corporate headquarters. Our rent under the lease will be approximately $730,000 per year for the initial year of the lease, and will increase by approximately $18,250 per year in each year thereafter. We are also responsible for our pro rata share of all operating costs and taxes as well as all costs of any services we engage directly. The term of this lease is ten years commencing July 1, 2011. This lease agreement contains additional terms typical of commercial lease agreements. In addition to these typical terms, the lease agreement provides that if the Business Management Agreement is terminated or expires or we experience a change in control, as defined in the lease, the Landlord may terminate the lease on six months notice, in which event we are entitled to be reimbursed for the unamortized costs of any improvements we make to the property.
The description of this lease is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the lease, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 of this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
The Landlord is an affiliate of RMR, which provides management services to us. One of our Managing Directors, Mr. Barry Portnoy, is the majority owner of the Landlord. Mr. Portnoys son, Mr. Adam Portnoy, is an owner and a Vice President of the Landlord, and his son-in-law, Ethan Bornstein, is President of the Landlord. The terms of the lease were reviewed and approved by a special committee of our Board of Directors composed solely of our Independent Directors who were represented by separate counsel.
For more information about the relationships among us, our Directors and RMR and its affiliates and about the risks which may arise from these relationships, please refer to our Annual Report and our other filings with the SEC, including the sections captioned Business, Risk Factors, Properties SNH Leases and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsRelated Person Transactions in our Annual Report, the section captioned Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsRelated Person Transactions in our Quarterly Report, and the information regarding our Directors and executive officers and the section captioned Related Person Transactions and Company Review of Such Transactions in our Proxy Statement.

WARNING CONCERNING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
THIS CURRENT REPORT CONTAINS STATEMENTS WHICH CONSTITUTE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 AND OTHER FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS. WHENEVER WE USE WORDS SUCH AS BELIEVE, EXPECT, ANTICIPATE, INTEND, PLAN, ESTIMATE, OR SIMILAR EXPRESSIONS, WE ARE MAKING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS. THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS ARE BASED UPON OUR PRESENT INTENT, BELIEFS OR EXPECTATIONS, BUT FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO OCCUR AND MAY NOT OCCUR. OUR ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE CONTAINED IN OR IMPLIED BY OUR FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF VARIOUS FACTORS. FOR EXAMPLE:
· THIS CURRENT REPORT STATES THAT WE EXPECT TO ACQUIRE SIX SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITIES LOCATED IN INDIANA STARTING IN JUNE 2011 AND THAT WE WILL BEGIN TO LEASE AND MANAGE 20 COMMUNITIES LOCATED IN THE SOUTHEAST STARTING IN JUNE 2011. THESE CLOSINGS ARE SUBJECT TO OUR OBTAINING REGULATORY APPROVALS AND CERTAIN LENDER CONSENTS AND SATISFACTION OF OTHER CLOSING CONDITIONS. WE CURRENTLY EXPECT THAT ALL OF THE REQUIRED APPROVALS AND CONSENTS WILL BE OBTAINED AND OTHER CONDITIONS WILL BE SATISFIED, BUT SUCH APPROVALS, CONSENTS AND SATISFACTION OF CONDITIONS ARE NOT ASSURED AND WE CANNOT CONTROL THE TIMING OF REGULATORY APPROVALS, LENDER CONSENTS OR SATISFACTION OF CLOSING CONDITIONS. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT OUR BEGINNING TO OPERATE SOME OF THESE COMMUNITIES MAY BE DELAYED OR MAY NOT OCCUR.
· THIS CURRENT REPORT STATES THAT THE PURCHASE OF THESE SIX SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITIES BY US WILL BE FUNDED, IN PART, BY A BRIDGE LOAN FROM SNH FOR UP TO $80 MILLION WHICH MATURES ON JULY 1, 2012. THE BRIDGE LOAN AGREEMENT PROVIDES THAT IF IT IS NOT REPAID ON OR BEFORE ITS MATURITY DATE, SNH MAY SATISFY THE LOAN BY ACQUIRING CERTAIN OF THE COMMUNITIES SECURING REPAYMENT OF THE LOAN AND LEASING THEM TO US. WE EXPECT TO BE ABLE TO REPAY THIS LOAN BEFORE ITS MATURITY; HOWEVER, OUR ABILITY TO DO SO IS LARGELY DEPENDENT UPON MARKET CONDITIONS WHICH ARE BEYOND OUR CONTROL. ACCORDINGLY, WE CAN PROVIDE NO ASSURANCE THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO REPAY OR REFINANCE THIS BRIDGE LOAN OR REGARDING THE TERMS OF ANY SUCH REFINANCING.
· THIS CURRENT REPORT STATES THAT THE TERMS OF THE BRIDGE LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS BETWEEN US AND SNH WERE REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY SPECIAL COMMITTEES OF EACH OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SNHS BOARD OF TRUSTEES COMPOSED SOLELY OF OUR INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS AND INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES WHO ARE NOT ALSO DIRECTORS OR TRUSTEES OF THE OTHER PARTY AND WHO WERE REPRESENTED BY SEPARATE COUNSEL. THIS CURRENT REPORT ALSO STATES THAT THE TERMS OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE BUSINESS MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT WERE REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS COMPOSED SOLELY OF OUR INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS AND THAT THE TERMS OF OUR LEASE FOR OUR HEADQUARTERS WITH AN AFFILIATE OF
RMR WERE REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY A SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS COMPOSED SOLELY OF OUR INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS WHO WERE REPRESENTED BY SEPARATE COUNSEL. THE IMPLICATION OF THESE STATEMENTS MAY BE THAT THESE TERMS ARE ARMS LENGTH AND FAIR. HOWEVER, BECAUSE OF THE MULTIPLE RELATIONSHIPS AMONG US, SNH AND RMR AND ITS AFFILIATES, THESE TERMS MAY BE EXPOSED TO CLAIMS THAT THEY ARE SOMEHOW UNFAIR, AND DEFENDING SUCH CLAIMS CAN BE EXPENSIVE AND DISTRACTING TO MANAGEMENT.
THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN OUR FILINGS WITH THE SEC, INCLUDING UNDER THE CAPTION RISK FACTORS IN OUR PERIODIC REPORTS, IDENTIFIES OTHER IMPORTANT FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE IN OR IMPLIED BY OUR FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS. OUR FILINGS WITH THE SEC ARE AVAILABLE ON ITS WEBSITE AT WWW.SEC.GOV.
YOU SHOULD NOT PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE UPON OUR FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.
EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY LAW, WE DO NOT INTEND TO UPDATE OR CHANGE ANY FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF NEW INFORMATION, FUTURE EVENTS OR OTHERWISE.

The Purchaser and the Sellers shall cooperate to cause the Sellers water, gas, electric or other utility accounts with respect to each Property to be closed on the day preceding the Closing Date and for new accounts to be opened in the Purchasers name on the Closing Date, in which case each of the Purchaser and the Sellers shall be responsible for their own accounts. If the Purchaser and the Sellers are not able to switch over any such accounts as aforesaid, the Sellers endeavor to obtain readings for all applicable utility meters as close as possible to the Closing Date and any corresponding charges based thereon shall be prorated based upon such readings. If any readings cannot be obtained by the Closing Date, then, at the Closing, any corresponding charges based thereon shall be prorated based upon the last readings then available. Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, the apportionment of such charges shall be recalculated and the Sellers or the Purchaser, as the case may be, shall make prompt payment to the other based upon such recalculations.
(c) Tax Refunds . If any refunds of real property taxes or assessments, water rates and charges or sewer taxes and rents shall be made after the Closing, the same shall be held in trust by the Sellers or the Purchaser, as the case may be, and shall first be applied to the unreimbursed costs incurred in obtaining the same, then the balance, if any, shall be paid to the Sellers (with respect to the period prior to the Closing Date) and to the Purchaser (with respect to the period commencing with the Closing Date).
(d) Special Assessments . If, on the Closing Date, any Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable as a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Sellers shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments, including those which are to become due and payable after the Closing Date.
(e) Resident Deposits . At the Closing, the Purchaser shall receive a credit for the amount of all Resident Deposits or, if required by Law, the segregated accounts containing such Resident Deposits or the amounts therein shall be transferred to the Purchaser.
(f) Insurance Policies . Except as set forth in Section 9.1 , no insurance policies of the Sellers are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.
(g) Credits or Debits . If a net amount is owed by the Sellers to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 8.1 , such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price at Closing. If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Sellers pursuant to this Section 8.1 , such amount shall be paid together with the Purchase Price at Closing.
8.2. Holdback . At the Closing, the Sellers shall deposit the Holdback Amount with Escrow Agent and Escrow Agent shall hold the Holdback Amount in an interest bearing account to be available to reimburse the Purchaser (and its Subsidiaries and/or affiliates) for any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, interest, penalties, and reasonable attorneys fees (collectively, Losses ) incurred by the Purchaser (and its Subsidiaries and/or affiliates) in connection with any breach by any Seller Party of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or representations and warranties of such Seller Party as set forth in this Agreement. If neither the Purchaser nor its Subsidiaries or affiliates has made a claim for any such Losses on or before the first (1 st ) anniversary of the Closing Date, then the Escrow Agent shall release the Holdback Amount to the Sellers. If the Purchaser (or its Subsidiaries and/or affiliates) makes a claim against any Seller Party on or before the first (1 st ) anniversary of the Closing Date and notifies Escrow Agent thereof, then the Escrow Agent shall retain the Holdback Amount until the claim is finally resolved by a written agreement signed by both parties and delivered to the Escrow Agent or by delivery of the amount of the claim to a court of competent jurisdiction by Escrow Agent, in which event the Escrow Agent shall be released and discharged from all further obligations hereunder. Any Loss determined to be due to the Purchaser (and its Subsidiaries and/or affiliates) shall be recovered first from the Holdback Amount; provided , however , the Holdback Amount shall not limit or otherwise cap any Sellers liability under this Agreement.
8.3. Closing Costs .
(a) Sellers Costs . The Sellers shall pay the following closing costs: (i) one-half (1/2) of all costs, fees and premiums incurred in connection with the Title Commitments, the Surveys and the Title Policies; (ii) one-half (1/2) of all excise, sale, use, value added, registration, stamp, recording, documentary, conveyance, franchise, transfer, gains and similar taxes and impositions incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (iii) the entire amount of all recording charges for instruments removing liens or otherwise curing title and survey matters; (iv) the costs of the attorneys and consultants of the Sellers; and (v) all other costs incurred by the Sellers in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any costs associated with any filing required to be made by any Seller Party under the HSR Act.

11.6. Waivers, Etc. Any waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement, or of the breach of any covenant, representation or warranty contained herein, in any one instance, shall not operate as or be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any other breach of such term, condition, covenant, representation or warranty or any other term, condition, covenant, representation or warranty, nor shall any failure at any time or times to enforce or require performance of any provision hereof operate as a waiver of or affect in any manner such partys right at a later time to enforce or require performance of such provision or any other provision hereof.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of 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, including, without limitation, any confidentiality agreement executed in connection with the subject matter hereof. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the conflict of any provision with any constitution or statute or rule of public policy or for any other reason, such circumstance shall not render the provision or provisions in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or in any other case or circumstance or otherwise render any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to the extent that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with such constitution, statute or rule of public policy, but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if such invalid, inoperative or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and such provision reformed so that it would be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in such jurisdiction or in such case.

11.6. Waivers, Etc. Any waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement, or of the breach of any covenant, representation or warranty contained herein, in any one instance, shall not operate as or be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any other breach of such term, condition, covenant, representation or warranty or any other term, condition, covenant, representation or warranty, nor shall any failure at any time or times to enforce or require performance of any provision hereof operate as a waiver of or affect in any manner such partys right at a later time to enforce or require performance of such provision or any other provision hereof.

11.7. Assignment; Successors and Assigns . This Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable by any party without the written consent of the other, except that the Purchaser may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates, or to Senior Housing Properties Trust or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates.

11.9. No Presumption Against Drafter . This Agreement has been extensively negotiated between the Purchaser and the Sellers and none of the provisions set forth herein shall be construed narrowly against either party on the account of the fact that such party (or its attorney) drafted such provision.
11.10. Entire Agreement; Severability . This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of 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, including, without limitation, any confidentiality agreement executed in connection with the subject matter hereof. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the conflict of any provision with any constitution or statute or rule of public policy or for any other reason, such circumstance shall not render the provision or provisions in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or in any other case or
circumstance or otherwise render any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to the extent that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with such constitution, statute or rule of public policy, but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if such invalid, inoperative or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and such provision reformed so that it would be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in such jurisdiction or in such case.

11.13. Attorneys Fees .

If, for any reason, the Sellers are unable or unwilling to take such actions as may be required to cause such matters to be removed from the Title Commitments or the Surveys, or to be otherwise remedied, the Sellers shall give the Purchaser notice thereof. If the Sellers fail to give such notice within five (5) Business Days following the date on which the Sellers received the applicable Title Objection Notice (the Title Response Date ), such failure shall be deemed an election by the Sellers not to cause such removal and/or remedy.

The Sellers shall be responsible for all Trade Payables relating to the period prior to the Closing Date and shall timely pay all such Trade Payables in accordance with the usual and customary practices of the Sellers. If the Sellers fail to pay any such Trade Payables, within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser may (but shall not be obligated) to pay such Trade Payables and receive reimbursement from the Sellers within

ARTICLE VIII.
APPORTIONMENTS
8.1. Apportionments .
(a) Closing Apportionments . The following items shall be apportioned at 11:59 pm on the day preceding the Closing Date, such that the Closing Date shall be for the account of the Purchaser:
(i) rents and all other fixed and unfixed charges payable under the Resident Agreements, to the extent the same have been received and collected;
(ii) fuel, electric, water and other utility costs;
(iii) real estate taxes and assessments other than special assessments, based on the rates and assessed valuations applicable in the 2011 calendar year (it being acknowledged and agreed that real estate taxes and assessments shall be prorated based on when such taxes are accrued, rather than when they are paid);
(iv) amounts paid or payable under Service Contracts being assumed by the Purchaser;
(v) amounts which the Purchaser (or its Subsidiaries and/or affiliates) elects to assume with respect to Employee vacation time or sick days (if any); and
(vi) all other items of income and expense normally apportioned in sales of property in similar situations.
If any of the foregoing cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith
estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date for all items other than real estate taxes, which shall be reconciled no later than six (6) months after the Closing Date.
(b) Meter Readings . The Purchaser and the Sellers shall cooperate to cause the Sellers water, gas, electric or other utility accounts with respect to the Property to be closed on the day preceding the Closing Date and for new accounts to be opened in the Purchasers name on the Closing Date, in which case each of the Purchaser and the Sellers shall be responsible for their own accounts. If the Purchaser and the Sellers are not able to switch over any such accounts as aforesaid, the Sellers endeavor to obtain readings for all applicable utility meters as close as possible to the Closing Date and any corresponding charges based thereon shall be prorated based upon such readings. If any readings cannot be obtained by the Closing Date, then, at the Closing, any corresponding charges based thereon shall be prorated based upon the last readings then available. Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, the apportionment of such charges shall be recalculated and the Sellers or the Purchaser, as the case may be, shall make prompt payment to the other based upon such recalculations.
(c) Tax Refunds . If any refunds of real property taxes or assessments, water rates and charges or sewer taxes and rents shall be made after the Closing, the same shall be held in trust by the Sellers or the Purchaser, as the case may be, and shall first be applied to the unreimbursed costs incurred in obtaining the same, then the balance, if any, shall be paid to the Sellers (with respect to the period prior to the Closing Date) and to the Purchaser (with respect to the period commencing with the Closing Date).
(d) Special Assessments . If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable as a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Sellers shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments, including those which are to become due and payable after the Closing Date.
(e) Resident Deposits . At the Closing, the Purchaser shall receive a credit for the amount of all Resident Deposits or, if required by Law, the segregated accounts containing such Resident Deposits or the amounts therein shall be transferred to the Purchaser.
(f) Insurance Policies . Except as set forth in Section 9.1 , no insurance policies of the Sellers are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.
(g) Credits or Debits . If a net amount is owed by the Sellers to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 8.1 , such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price at Closing. If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Sellers pursuant to this Section 8.1 , such amount shall be paid together with the Purchase Price at Closing.
8.2. Holdback . At the Closing, the Sellers shall deposit the Holdback Amount with Escrow Agent and Escrow Agent shall hold the Holdback Amount in an interest bearing account to be available to reimburse the Purchaser (and its Subsidiaries and/or affiliates) for any and all
losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, interest, penalties, and reasonable attorneys fees (collectively, Losses ) incurred by the Purchaser (and its Subsidiaries and/or affiliates) in connection with any breach by any Seller Party of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or representations and warranties of such Seller Party as set forth in this Agreement. If neither the Purchaser nor its Subsidiaries or affiliates has made a claim for any such Losses on or before the first (1 st ) anniversary of the Closing Date, then the Escrow Agent shall release the Holdback Amount to the Sellers. If the Purchaser (or its Subsidiaries and/or affiliates) makes a claim against any Seller Party on or before the first (1 st ) anniversary of the Closing Date and notifies Escrow Agent thereof, then the Escrow Agent shall retain the Holdback Amount until the claim is finally resolved by a written agreement signed by both parties and delivered to the Escrow Agent or by delivery of the amount of the claim to a court of competent jurisdiction by Escrow Agent, in which event the Escrow Agent shall be released and discharged from all further obligations hereunder. Any Loss determined to be due to the Purchaser (and its Subsidiaries and/or affiliates) shall be recovered first from the Holdback Amount; provided , however , the Holdback Amount shall not limit or otherwise cap any Sellers liability under this Agreement.
8.3. Closing Costs .
(a) Sellers Costs . The Sellers shall pay the following closing costs: (i) one-half (1/2) of all costs, fees and premiums incurred in connection with the Title Commitments, the Surveys and the Title Policies; (ii) one-half (1/2) of all excise, sale, use, value added, registration, stamp, recording, documentary, conveyance, franchise, transfer, gains and similar taxes and impositions incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (iii) the entire amount of all recording charges for instruments removing liens or otherwise curing title and survey matters; (iv) the costs of the attorneys and consultants of the Sellers; and (v) all other costs incurred by the Sellers in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any costs associated with any filing required to be made by any Seller Party under the HSR Act.

8.4. Withholding Amounts . The Purchaser shall be entitled to withhold from the Purchase Price any amounts that the Purchaser is required to withhold or is responsible for withholding under any applicable Laws.
8.5. Errors on Settlement Statements . If either party discovers any errors in any of the prorations or adjustments shown on the settlement statements or closing statements, then the party discovering such error shall promptly notify the other party thereof and the parties shall
promptly make such payments to one another as shall be necessary to rectify such errors; provided , however , that any such error notices shall be delivered on or before the first (1 st ) anniversary of the Closing Date.
8.6. Survival . All of the provisions of this Article VIII shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE IX.

9.1. Casualty . If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of the Property is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, the Sellers shall promptly notify the Purchaser of such fact. If any such casualty shall damage all or any material portion of the Property, then the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice thereof to the Sellers not later than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which the Purchaser receives the Sellers notice as aforesaid (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until two (2) Business Days after the expiration of such period). If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, then the Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to the Purchaser, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and no party shall have any liability or obligation to any other party hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations. If any such casualty shall damage less than a material portion of the Property or if the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, then there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price and the Sellers shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing all of the Sellers rights to the insurance proceeds, if any, under the Sellers insurance policies covering the Property with respect to such damage or destruction and there shall be credited against the Purchase Price the following: (a) the amount of any applicable insurance deductibles; and (b) the amount of any proceeds received by any Seller that have not been applied to the costs of repairs that were approved by the Purchaser. For purposes of this Section 9.1 , any casualty damage which the Purchaser reasonably estimates will cost in excess of $150,000.00 to repair will be deemed to have damaged a material portion of the Property.
9.2. Condemnation . If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of the Property is taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending taking which has not yet been consummated), the Sellers shall promptly notify the Purchaser of such fact, and the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice thereof to the Sellers not later than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which the Purchaser receives the Sellers notice as aforesaid (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until two (2) Business Days after the expiration of such period). If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, then the Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to the Purchaser, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and no party shall have any other obligation or liability to the other hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations. If the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, the sale of the Property shall be consummated as herein provided without any adjustment to the Purchase Price (except to the extent of any condemnation award received by the Sellers) and the Sellers shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing all of the Sellers right, title and interest in and to all awards, if any, for the taking, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and keep all awards for the taking of the Property or portion thereof.
9.3. S urvival . All of the provisions of this Article IX shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE X.

10.1. Default by the Seller Parties . If any Seller Party shall have made any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any material respect, or if any Seller Party shall fail to perform any of the material covenants and agreements contained herein to be performed by such Seller Party, then the Purchaser, as its sole and exclusive remedy prior to Closing, may elect to either (a) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit, whereupon the Sellers shall reimburse the Purchaser for the Purchasers out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement whereupon this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and no party shall have any other obligation or liability to any other party hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations, or (b) pursue a suit for specific performance; provided , however , if the Purchaser is unsuccessful in its suit for specific performance it shall nevertheless be entitled to the remedies provided in the immediately preceding clause (a).

11.6. Waivers, Etc.

(a) declare the Commitment to be terminated;

After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 7.02 (or after the Loans have become due and payable as set forth in Section 7.02 ), any amounts received on account of any of the Obligations shall be applied by the Lender to the Obligations in such amounts and in such order as the Lender shall determine.
7.04 Specific Performance .
The Lender may enforce any judgment obtained in connection with the Loan Documents through an action for specific performance.
ARTICLE VIII
SECURITY INTEREST; ADDITIONAL REMEDIES
8.01 Grant of Security Interest .
To secure the prompt payment and performance of all of the Obligations, each Borrower hereby collaterally assigns and pledges to the Lender a continuing security interest in all of such Borrowers right, title and interest in and to the Property and in all proceeds thereof.
8.02 Preservation of Property and Perfection of Security Interests .
Each Borrower shall, on request of the Lender, execute and deliver to the Lender all financing statements or other documents (and pay the cost of filing or recording the same in all public offices deemed necessary by the Lender), in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Lender, necessary or desirable to perfect, keep perfected and to protect and preserve the Liens on the Property granted under the Loan Documents. The Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized to file (and sign if necessary) on behalf of each Borrower UCC or effective financing statements on the Property at any time or from time to time and any continuation statement or amendment with respect thereto, in any appropriate filing office.
8.03 Remittance of Proceeds to Lender .
At any time an Event of Default exists, if any proceeds of any Property shall come into the possession of a Borrower, such Borrower shall hold such proceeds as the sole and exclusive property of the Lender, and as trustee for the Lender, and no later than the first Business Day following receipt, remit any proceeds constituting cash or cash items (or cause the same to be remitted), in kind to the Lender.
8.04 Safekeeping of Property .
To the maximum extent permitted by Law, the Lender shall not be responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Property; (b) any loss or damage to the Property; (c) any diminution in the value of the Property; or (d) any act or default of any other Person relating to the Property. All risk of loss, damage, destruction or diminution in value of the Property shall be borne by the Borrowers.
8.05 State of Incorporation; Name .
The exact legal names of each Borrower are set forth on the signature pages of this Agreement and their respective jurisdictions of organization are correctly stated in the introductory paragraph of this Agreement. The principal place of business and chief executive office of each Borrower is 400 Centre Street, Newton, Massachusetts 02458. No Borrower may change such office, its name or state of organization, unless such Borrower gives the Lender at least 30-days prior written notice thereof.
8.06 Continuing Lien .
It is the intent of the parties hereto that the Liens granted under the Loan Documents (a) shall constitute a continuing Lien securing any and all future, as well as existing, Obligations, and (b) shall attach to after-acquired as well as existing Property of a Borrower.
8.07 Possession; Sale of Property .
(a) In addition to the rights and remedies contained in Section 7.02 , while an Event of Default exists, the Lender shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and the right (subject to any applicable Laws):
(i) with or without notice or demand for performance and without liability for trespass, subject to the rights of lessees, if any, enter any of the Property and peaceably take possession of the same, and may take such measures as the Lender may deem necessary or proper for the care or protection thereof (including without limitation, the right to remove all or any portion of such Property);
(ii) with or without taking such possession, may sell or cause to be sold, in one or more sales or parcels, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, without assumption of any credit risk, all or any portion of the Property, at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to sell or of time or place of sale, except at least ten (10) Business Days written notice to the Borrowers of the time and place of such sale or sales (and such other notices as may be required by applicable Law, if any, and which cannot be waived), which each Borrower hereby expressly acknowledges is commercially reasonable. The Lender shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare any Property for such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the Property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Borrower, and each Borrower hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal that such Borrower now have or may at any time in the future have under any applicable Law now existing or hereafter enacted; and
(iii) at any such sale, the Property, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Lender (in its sole and absolute discretion) determines. The Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Property if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Property shall have been given. The Lender may, without notice or publication, adjourn any such public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any such sale of all or any part of the Property is made on credit or for future delivery, the Property so sold may be retained by the Lender until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof. The Lender shall not incur any liability for the failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Property or for any delay in doing so and, in case of any such failure, shall not be under any obligation to take any action with respect thereto; provided such Property may be sold again upon like notice.
(b) At any public sale made pursuant to this Agreement (or to the extent permitted by applicable Law at any private sale), the Lender may bid for or purchase the Property and any other security for the Obligations, free from any right of redemption, stay or appraisal and all rights of marshalling, (all said rights being also hereby waived and released by each Borrower to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable Law), and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to the Lender from the Borrowers as a credit against the purchase price, and the Lender, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and dispose of such Property without further accountability to the Borrowers therefor.
(c) As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, in connection with the exercise of any remedies, the Lender may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose on the Property and to sell the same or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver. In any action hereunder, the Lender shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver without notice, to peaceably take possession of all or any portion of the Property and to exercise such powers as the court shall confer upon the receiver. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lender shall be entitled to apply, without notice to any Borrower, any cash or cash items constituting Property or proceeds thereof in its possession to payment of the Obligations.
8.08 Sale following Maturity Date or Acceleration .
(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if all Obligations are not paid in full as of the Maturity Date, or if earlier, upon acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 7.02 , then at the request of the Lender, the Borrowers will transfer to the Lender or its designee (the New Owner ) the Acquired Facilities as follows:
(i) if the aggregate amount of the outstanding Obligations is not more than $30.4 million, the New Owner shall only be entitled to require transfer of the first Acquired Facility listed on Schedule 1 ;
(ii) if the aggregate amount of the outstanding Obligations is more than $30.4 million, but not more than $53.82 million, the New Owner shall be entitled to require transfer of the first and second Acquired Facilities listed on Schedule 1 ; and
(iii) if the aggregate amount of the outstanding Obligations is more than $53.82 million, the New Owner shall be entitled to require transfer of all three Acquired Facilities.
(b) Upon transfer of an Acquired Facility the Lender will acknowledge satisfaction of the then outstanding Obligations in an amount equal to the value of such Acquired Facility set forth in Schedule 1 ; provided , the Acquired Facilities must be transferred in the order they appear on Schedule 1 (for example, the first listed Acquired Facility must be transferred before or simultaneously with the second listed Acquired Facility). If the aggregate value for the Acquired Facilities transferred exceeds the then outstanding Obligations, the New Owner shall on the date of the transfer pay an amount equal to the excess in cash to the Borrowers. If the then outstanding Obligations exceed the aggregate value of the Acquired Facilities transferred, the Borrowers shall remain liable for the deficiency and the Lender shall have and retain all rights and remedies under this Agreement with respect thereto and any remaining Property.
(c) Contemporaneously with the transfer of an Acquired Facility pursuant to this Section 8.08 , an Affiliate of FVE shall lease such Acquired Facility from the New Owner pursuant to a Lease. The New Owner shall specify the Lease under which the Acquired Facility will be leased and all of the terms of such Lease will apply to such Acquired Facility except Base Gross Revenues with respect to such Acquired Facility will be the Gross Revenues for calendar year 2012 and the annual Minimum Rent for such Acquired Facility will equal 8% of the value of such Acquired Facility as set forth on
Schedule 1 . Base Gross Revenues, Gross Revenues and Minimum Rent have the meanings given therefor in the applicable Lease.
(d) The foregoing notwithstanding, the rights and obligations of the parties under this Section 8.08 shall be subject to New Owners obtaining all required licenses and regulatory approvals for the ownership of such Facility by the New Owner, and the parties will reasonably cooperate in the process of obtaining such licenses and approvals.

Indemnitees obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if a Borrower has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (C) arose from any event occurring after the Lender or its designee have taken to the applicable Property by foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof.

9.10 Survival of Representations and Warranties .
All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.

For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.
(b) Selection of Arbitrators . There shall be three arbitrators. If there are only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within 15 days after receipt of a demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of such parties. If there are 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 within 15 days after receipt of a demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be.

If such party (or parties) fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the party (or parties) who have appointed the first arbitrator shall then have ten days to select one of the three arbitrators proposed by AAA to be the second arbitrator; and, if he/they should fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the AAA shall select, within 15 days thereafter, one of the three arbitrators it had proposed as the second arbitrator. The two arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint the third and presiding arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) within 15 days of the appointment of the second arbitrator. If the third arbitrator has not been appointed 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.
(c) Location of Arbitration . The place of Arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
(d) Scope of Discovery . There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.
(e) Arbitration Award . 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 Section 9.13 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.
(f) Costs . Except to the extent expressly provided by this Section 9.13 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). 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.
(g) Final Judgment . 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.

(h) Payment . Any monetary award shall be made and payable in Dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.

(i) Beneficiaries . This Section 9.13 is intended to benefit and be enforceable by the shareholders, trustees, directors, officers, managers (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agents or employees of any party and the parties and shall be binding on the shareholders of any party and the parties, as applicable, and shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that such individuals or entities may have by contract or otherwise.
9.14 Joint and Several Liability .
Each and every obligation of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is the joint and several obligation of each Borrower whether or not so expressed. Such obligations are independent, and may be enforced against any Borrower, irrespective of whether enforcement is brought against any other Borrower. If for any reason any Borrower has no legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge any of its obligations to the Lender, or if any of the moneys payable on such obligations have become irrecoverable from a Borrower, by operation of law or otherwise, such obligations shall nevertheless be binding on each other Borrower.
9.15 Statement Concerning Limited Liability .

SUPPLEMENTED, AS FILED WITH THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF MARYLAND, PROVIDES THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF SENIOR HOUSING PROPERTIES TRUST SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, SENIOR HOUSING PROPERTIES TRUST.

6. INDEMNITY. If any suit or proceeding be brought against the Trustee or the Beneficiary or arising out of this Deed of Trust or the Loan Agreement, or if any suit or proceeding be brought which may, in the Beneficiarys commercially reasonable judgment, affect the value or title of the Property, the Grantor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless and on demand reimburse the Trustee or the

9. CREATION OF SECURITY INTERESTS.

By executing and delivering this Deed of Trust, the Grantor hereby expressly grants to the Beneficiary, as security for the Obligations, a security interest in the personal property encumbered hereby (the Personal Property ), for the purpose of securing the Obligations, to the full extent that such Personal Property may be subject to the UCC, but subject to the rights of the beneficiary of any deed of trust senior in priority to this Deed of Trust. At the Beneficiarys request, the Grantor will join the Beneficiary in executing one or more financing statements and renewals and amendments thereof pursuant to the UCC, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Beneficiary and will pay all costs of filing thereof. Certain items of the Personal Property are, may, or will become attached to the real property that is encumbered by this Deed of Trust. It is intended that the filing for record of this Deed of Trust will make it effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing within the meaning of the UCC. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Deed of Trust, if, in the event of a foreclosure (whether judicial or non-judicial) of this Deed of Trust, less than all of the Personal Property subject to this security interest is sold at foreclosure, that portion of the Personal Property not sold shall continue to remain subject to the security interest granted hereby.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Grantor has caused this instrument to be signed in its corporate name by its duly authorized officers and its seal to be hereunto affixed by authority of its Board of Directors, the day and year first above written.

Section 3.01. Management Fees . As compensation for the services to be rendered by Manager under this Agreement, Manager shall receive a management fee (Base Fee) during the Term equal to three percent (3%) of the Gross Revenues of the Facility and an additional fee (Incentive Fee) equal to thirty-five percent (35%) of Net Operating Income after payment of the SNH TRS Priority Return. No amount paid hereunder is intended to be, nor shall it be construed to be, an inducement or payment for referral of patients by either party or any of its Affiliates to the other party or any of its Affiliates. The compensation being paid constitutes the fair market value of the services being provided in light of the costs being incurred and the time, energy, training, expertise and skills required therefor, and is consistent with amounts that would result from arm-length negotiations between unrelated parties.
Section 3.02. Working Capital . Upon execution of this Agreement SNH TRS will advance to Manager, as Working Capital, an amount equal to $1,500, multiplied by the number of units at the Facility. Manager may, from time to time, request SNH TRS to fund additional amounts as Working Capital to pay Facility Expenses and if the parties do not agree on such additional amounts, the matter shall be referred to arbitration.
Section 3.03. Capital Replacements . The cost of all Capital Replacements in an Approved Budget shall be funded by SNH TRS. Funding will be made by SNH TRS from time to time, after receipt by SNH TRS of such information from Manager regarding the acquisition, initiation or implementation of any Capital Replacements and the progress and performance thereof as SNH TRS may reasonably require.
Section 3.04. Insufficient Funds . If at any time available Working Capital is insufficient to pay Facility Expenses and SNH TRS has not timely funded additional amounts for such purpose or SNH TRS has not timely funded Capital Replacements, Manager shall have no obligation to advance its own funds therefor and is relieved of any obligation to pay Facility
Expenses or the cost of Capital Replacements to such extent. If Manager does advance its own funds, at such time as SNH TRS advances funds to reimburse Manager, whether by agreement or pursuant to an Award, SNH TRS shall pay Manager interest on such amounts at the Interest Rate from the date of Managers advance of funds to the date of reimbursement. If the Award includes interest, SNH TRS shall be entitled to offset such interest against its obligation under this Section 3.04.
ARTICLE IV
MANAGEMENT SERVICES
Section 4.01. Authority of Manager and Management Services . Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Manager shall have discretion and control, free from interference, interruption or disturbance from SNH TRS or those claiming by, through or under SNH TRS, in all matters relating to the day-to-day management and operation of the Facility. Such discretion and control shall include the authority to negotiate and execute contracts its own name, in the name of and on behalf of SNH TRS and/or the Facility, in each case, subject to the terms of this Agreement. Manager shall implement all aspects of the operation of the Facility in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and shall have responsibility and commensurate authority for all such activities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in addition to any other services set forth in this Agreement, Manager shall, consistent with the Approved Budget:
(a) enter into all contracts, leases and agreements required in the ordinary course of business for the supply, operation, maintenance of and provision of services to the Facility (including food procurement, building services (including cleaning, trash removal, snow plowing, landscaping, carpet cleaning and pest control), utilities and licenses and concessions for commercial space in the Facility); provided that, unless specifically set forth in the Approved Budget, Manager shall obtain the written consent of SNH TRS before entering into any contract, lease or agreement not terminable on ninety (90) days notice without payment of premium or penalty, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed;
(b) purchase such inventories, provisions, food, supplies, Household Replacements and other expendable items as are necessary to operate and maintain the Facility in the manner required pursuant to this Agreement;
(c) provide care to Residents in compliance with the resident agreements in use at the Facility and set all Resident fees and charges including those for accommodation, food services and care services;

(e) prepare a marketing plan and direct all the marketing efforts; and
(f) oversee, manage and direct all day-to-day operations.
Section 4.02. Hiring and Training of Staff .

All matters pertaining to the retention, employment, supervision, compensation, training, promotion and discharge of such employees or independent contractors are the responsibility of Manager.

Section 15.01. Governing Law, Etc . 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, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (vi) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than Massachusetts; or (vii) any combination of the foregoing.
Section 15.02. Arbitration .
(a) Any disputes, claims or controversies between the parties (i) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or (ii) brought by or on behalf of any shareholder of any party or a direct or indirect parent of a party (which, for purposes of this Section 15.02, shall mean any shareholder of record or any beneficial owner of shares of any party, or any former shareholder of record or beneficial owner of shares of any party), either on his, her or its own behalf, on behalf of any party or on behalf of any series or class of shares of any party or shareholders of any party against any party or any member, trustee, officer, manager (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agent or employee of any party, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, including this arbitration provision, or the declarations of trust, limited liability company agreements or bylaws of any party hereto (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 those Rules may be modified in this Section
15.02. For the avoidance of doubt, and not as a limitation, Disputes are intended to include derivative actions against trustees, officers or managers of any party and class actions by a shareholder against those individuals or entities and any party. For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party. For purposes of this Article XIV, the term party shall include any direct or indirect parent of a party.
(b) There shall be three arbitrators. If there are only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of such parties. If there are 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 within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be. If either a claimant (or all claimants) or a respondent (or all respondents) fail to timely select an arbitrator then the party (or parties) who has selected an arbitrator may request the AAA to provide a list of three proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules (each of whom shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) and the party (or parties) that failed to timely appoint an arbitrator shall have ten days from the date the AAA provides such list to select one of the three arbitrators proposed by AAA. If such party (or parties) fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the party (or parties) who have appointed the first arbitrator shall then have ten days to select one of the three arbitrators proposed by AAA to be the second arbitrator; and, if he/they should fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the AAA shall select, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, one of the three arbitrators it had proposed as the second arbitrator. The two arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint the third and presiding arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the second arbitrator. If the third arbitrator has not been appointed 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.
(c) The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
(d) There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.
(e) In rendering an award or decision (the Award), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Any arbitration proceedings or 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 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.
(f) Except to the extent expressly provided by this Agreement or as otherwise agreed by 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, award any portion of a partys award to the claimant or the claimants 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.
(g) An 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. Each party against which the Award assesses a monetary 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.
(i) This Section 15.02 is intended to benefit and be enforceable by the shareholders, members, direct and indirect parents, trustees, directors, officers, managers (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agents or employees of any party and the parties and shall be binding on the shareholders of any party and the parties, as applicable, and shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that such individuals or entities may have by contract or otherwise.

Manager shall market a Facility designated as a Non-Economic Facility for sale and any costs incurred by the Manager in connection with such marketing activities and the sale of such Facility shall be paid out of the net proceeds of such sale. The relevant TRS and Owner shall cooperate with Manager in compiling any relevant information, preparing marketing materials and otherwise in connection with the sale of a Non-Economic Facility.
5.03. Sale Process . If a Non-Economic Facility is marketed for sale in accordance with Section 5.02 and Manager receives an offer therefor which it wishes to accept on behalf of the TRS and Owner, Manager shall give the relevant TRS prompt notice thereof, which notice shall include a copy of the offer and any other information reasonably requested by such TRS. If the relevant TRS, on behalf of the relevant Owner, shall fail to accept or reject such offer within seven (7) Business Days after receipt of such notice and other information from Manager, such offer shall be deemed to be accepted. If the offer is rejected by the relevant TRS on behalf of the relevant Owner and, if the Manager elects to continue marketing the Facility by providing written notice to the relevant TRS within seven (7) days of such rejection and the Manager does not obtain another offer within ninety (90) days that is accepted by the relevant TRS, the Non-Economic Facility shall be deemed to have been sold to the relevant TRS on the date, at the price and on the other terms contained in the offer. If a Non-Economic Facility is sold to a third party or deemed to have been sold to the relevant Owner pursuant to such offer, effective as of the date of sale or deemed sale: (i) the Management Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Non-Economic Facility; (ii) the Aggregate Invested Capital shall be reduced by an amount equal to the net proceeds of sale after reduction for the costs and expenses of the relevant TRS, relevant Owner and/or Manager (or, in the case of a deemed sale, the net proceeds of sale determined by reference to such offer, after reduction for any amounts actually expended and any amounts which would reasonably have been expected to have been expended if the sale had been consummated, by the relevant TRS, relevant Owner and/or Manager). If the reduction of Aggregate Invested Capital is less than the Invested Capital of the Non-Economic Facility sold or deemed sold, the difference shall be proportionately reallocated to the Invested Capital of the remaining Facilities.
ARTICLE VI
ACCOUNTS
All Working Capital and all Gross Revenues of each of the Facilities may be pooled and deposited in one or more bank accounts in the name(s) of the TRSes designated by Manager, which accounts may, except as required by any Mortgage and related loan documentation or applicable law, be commingled accounts containing other funds owned by or managed by Manager. Manager shall be authorized to access the accounts without the approval of TRSes, subject to any limitation on the maximum amount of any check, if any, established between Manager and TRSes as part of the Annual Operating Budgets. One or more TRSes shall be a signatory on all accounts maintained with respect to the Facility, and TRSes shall have the right to require that one or more TRSs signature be required on all checks/withdrawals after the occurrence of an Event of Default by Manager under this Agreement. The TRSes shall provide such instructions to the applicable bank(s) as are necessary to permit Manager to implement the Managers rights and obligations under this Agreement. The failure of any TRS to provide such instructions shall relieve Manager of its obligations hereunder until such time as such failure is cured.

Additionally, any amounts held as Working Capital or for Capital Replacements at the Additional Facility, if any, shall be held by Manager under this Agreement.
7.02. Removal of Facilities . From and after the date of termination of any Management Agreement, the Facility managed thereunder shall no longer be subject to this Agreement. If the termination occurs on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, the parties shall exclude such prorated amounts of the Gross Revenues and Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) applicable to such Facility for such calendar month, as mutually agreed in their reasonable judgment, in the calculation of Aggregate Gross Revenues and Aggregate Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) for the calendar month in which the termination occurred. Additionally, the relevant TRS and Manager, both acting reasonably, shall mutually agree to the portion of the Working Capital and Aggregate Gross Revenues and any amounts being held by Manager for Capital Replacements allocable to the Facility being removed from this Agreement and the amount of the Working Capital, Aggregate Gross Revenues and amounts being held by Manager for Capital Replacements, if any, so allocated shall be remitted to the relevant TRS and the relevant TRS and Manager shall make any other prorations, adjustments, allocations and changes required.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED
BUSINESS MANAGEMENT AND SHARED SERVICES AGREEMENT
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED BUSINESS MANAGEMENT AND SHARED SERVICES AGREEMENT (this Amendment ), dated as of May 12, 2011, by and between Five Star Quality Care, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the Company ), and Reit Management & Research LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ( RMR ).
WHEREAS, the Company and RMR are parties to an Amended and Restated Business Management and Shared Services Agreement, dated as of January 4, 2010 (the Business Management Agreement ); and
WHEREAS, the Company and the RMR wish to amend the Business Management Agreement as further provided in this Amendment;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Section 2.3(a) of the Business Management Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety to read as follows:
PAYMENT FOR SERVICES. RMR shall be paid a fee for the Services provided to the Company under this Agreement (the Fee) equal to 0.6% of Revenues as hereinafter defined. Revenues are the total revenues of the Company from all sources reportable under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) less any revenues reportable by the Company with respect to facilities and other properties for which the Company provides management services plus the gross revenues at those facilities and other properties determined in accordance with GAAP. The Fee shall be estimated and paid monthly by the Company in advance based upon the prior calendar months Revenues, and such payment shall be paid within 15 calendar days of the end of the applicable prior calendar month unless otherwise agreed. The calculation of the fee for any month shall be based upon the Companys monthly financial statements and shall be in reasonable detail. A copy of the computations shall promptly be delivered to RMR accompanied by payment of the Fee thereon to be due and payable. The Fee shall be pro-rated for any partial month this Agreement shall be in effect.
The aggregate annual Fee paid in any fiscal year shall be subject to adjustment as of the end of that fiscal year. On or before the 30th day after public availability of the Companys annual audited financial statements for each fiscal year, the Company shall deliver to RMR a notice setting forth (i) the Revenues for such year, (ii) the Companys computation of the Fee payable for such year and (iii) the amount of the Fee theretofore paid to RMR in respect of such year. If the annual Fee payable for said fiscal year exceeds the aggregate amounts previously paid with respect thereto by the Company, the
Company shall pay such deficit amount to RMR at the time of delivery of such notice. If the annual Fee payable for said fiscal year as shown in such notice is less than the aggregate amounts previously paid with respect thereto by the Company, the Company shall specify in such notice whether RMR should (i) refund to the Company payment in an amount equal to such difference or (ii) grant the Company a credit against the Fee next coming due in the amount of such difference until such amount has been fully paid or otherwise discharged.
2. Section 14.1 of the Business Management Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety to read as follows:
PROCEDURES FOR ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES. Any disputes, claims or controversies between the parties (a) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the provision of services by RMR pursuant to this Agreement, or (b) brought by or on behalf of any shareholder of the Company (which, for purposes of this Section 14, shall mean any shareholder of record or any beneficial owner of shares of the Company, or any former shareholder of record or beneficial owner of shares of the Company), either on his, her or its own behalf, on behalf of the Company or on behalf of any series or class of shares of the Company or shareholders of the Company against the Company or any director, officer, manager (including RMR or its successor), agent or employee of the Company, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, including this arbitration agreement, or the charter or Bylaws of the Company (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 those Rules may be modified in this Section 14. For the avoidance of doubt, and not as a limitation, Disputes are intended to include derivative actions against directors, officers or managers of the Company and class actions by a shareholder against those individuals or entities and the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.
3. Section 14.2 of the Business Management Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety to read as follows:
ARBITRATORS. There shall be three arbitrators. If there are only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within 15 days after receipt of a demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of such parties. If there are 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 within 15 days after receipt of a demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be. If either a claimant (or all claimants) or a respondent (or all respondents) fail to timely select an arbitrator then
the party (or parties) who has selected an arbitrator may request the AAA to provide a list of three proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules (each of whom shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) and the party (or parties) that failed to timely appoint an arbitrator shall have ten days from the date the AAA provides such list to select one of the three arbitrators proposed by AAA. If such party (or parties) fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the party (or parties) who have appointed the first arbitrator shall then have ten days to select one of the three arbitrators proposed by AAA to be the second arbitrator; and, if he/they should fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the AAA shall select, within 15 days thereafter, one of the three arbitrators it had proposed as the second arbitrator. The two arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint the third and presiding arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) within 15 days of the appointment of the second arbitrator. If the third arbitrator has not been appointed 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.
4. This Amendment shall be effective as of the day and year first above written. As amended hereby, the Business Management Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
5. The provisions of this Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
6. This Amendment may be executed in separate counterparts, each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Rent
4.1 The Annual Fixed Rent . Tenant shall pay Annual Fixed Rent commencing on the Commencement Date without offset, deduction or abatement (except as provided in this Lease) or demand. Annual Fixed Rent shall be payable in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each and every calendar month during the term of this Lease, at the Original Address of Landlord, or at such other place as Landlord shall from time to time designate by notice, by check drawn on a domestic bank or by wire transfer or other electronic transfer of good funds.
4.2 Additional Rent . Tenant covenants and agrees to pay utility charges (including without limitation, electricity supplied to the Premises), and personal property taxes and its pro-rata share of Taxes and Operating Costs as provided in this Section 4.2, and all other charges and amounts payable by or due from Tenant, whether payable initially to Landlord or a third party (all such amounts referred to in this sentence being Additional Rent ).
4.2.1 Real Estate Taxes . Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, Tenants Percentage of all Taxes (as hereinafter defined) paid by Landlord with respect to the Property during each and every calendar year (a Tax Year ) during the term of this Lease ( Tenants Tax Obligation ).
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent on the first day of each calendar month during the term but otherwise in the manner provided for the payment of Annual Fixed Rent, estimated payments on account of Tenants Tax Obligation, such monthly amounts to be sufficient to provide Landlord by the time Tax payments are due or are to be made by Landlord a sum equal to Tenants Tax Obligation, as reasonably estimated by Landlord from time to time on account of Taxes for the then current Tax Year. If the total of such monthly remittances for any Tax Year is greater than Tenants Tax Obligation for such Tax Year, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against Tenants subsequent obligations on account of Taxes (or promptly refund such overpayment if the amount exceeds one months Annual Fixed Rent or if the term of this Lease has ended and Tenant has no further obligations to Landlord); if the total of such remittances is less than Tenants Tax Obligation for such Tax Year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord within thirty (30) days after being so notified in writing by Landlord.
If, after Tenant shall have made all payments due to Landlord pursuant to this Subsection 4.2.1, Landlord shall receive a refund of any portion of Taxes as a result of a reduction or an abatement of such Taxes by legal proceedings, settlement or otherwise (without either party having any obligation to undertake any such proceedings), Landlord shall pay or credit to Tenant that percentage of the refund (after first deducting any reasonable and customary expenses, including attorneys, consultants and appraisers fees, incurred in connection with obtaining any such refund) which equals the percentage of the applicable Tax Year included in the term hereof, provided however, in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive more than the sum of payments actually made by Tenant on account of Taxes with respect to such Tax Year.
If the Commencement Date shall occur or the term of this Lease shall expire or be terminated during any Tax Year, or should the Tax Year or period of assessment of real estate taxes be changed or be more or less than one (1) year, or should Tenants Percentage be modified during any Tax Year, as the case may be, then the amount of Tax Excess which may be otherwise payable by Tenant as provided in this Subsection 4.2.1 shall be appropriately apportioned and adjusted.
Taxes shall mean all taxes, assessments, excises and other charges and impositions which are general or special, ordinary or extraordinary of any kind or nature which are levied, assessed or imposed by any governmental authority upon or against or with respect to the Property, Landlord, or the owner or lessee of personal property used by or on behalf of Landlord in connection with the operations of the Property, or taxes in lieu thereof, and additional types of taxes to supplement real estate taxes due to legal limits imposed thereon. If, at any time any tax or excise on rents or other taxes, however described, are levied or assessed against Landlord, either wholly or partially in substitution for, or in addition to, real estate taxes assessed or levied on the Property, such tax or excise on rents or other taxes shall be included in Taxes; however, Taxes shall not include franchise, estate, inheritance, property transfer, succession or income taxes (except to the extent that a tax on income or revenue is levied solely on rental revenues and not on other types of income and then such tax may be included in Taxes but only to the extent payable with respect to rental revenue generated by or attributable to the Property) assessed on Landlord. Taxes also shall include all reasonable and customary court costs, attorneys, consultants and accountants fees, and other expenses incurred by Landlord in analyzing and contesting Taxes through and including all appeals. Taxes shall include any estimated payment made by Landlord on account of a fiscal tax period for which the actual and final amount of taxes for such period has not been determined by the governmental authority as of the date of any such estimated payment.
4.2.2 Personal Property Taxes . Tenant shall pay all taxes charged, assessed or imposed upon the personal property of Tenant in or upon the Premises.
4.2.3 Operating Costs . Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, Tenants Percentage of all Operating Costs (as hereinafter defined) paid or incurred by Landlord in any twelve-month period established by Landlord (an Operating Year ) during the term of this Lease (Tenants Percentage of such Operating Costs being Tenants Operating Cost Obligation). Except as otherwise provided in the immediately following paragraph, Tenant shall pay Tenants Operating Cost Obligation to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the date on which Landlord delivers to Tenant an itemized statement thereof, prepared, allocated and computed in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles ( GAAP ) consistently applied.
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent on the first day of each calendar month during the term but otherwise in the manner provided for the payment of Annual Fixed Rent, estimated payments on account of Tenants Operating Cost Obligation, such monthly amounts to be sufficient to provide to Landlord, by the end of each Operating Year, a sum equal to Tenants Operating Cost Obligation for such Operating Year, as reasonably estimated by Landlord from time to time during such Operating Year (provided that Landlord shall not increase such estimate more than once during any Operating Year). If, at the expiration of each Operating Year in
respect of which monthly installments of Tenants Operating Cost Obligation shall have been made as aforesaid, the total of such monthly remittances is greater than Tenants Operating Cost Obligation for such Operating Year, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against Tenants subsequent obligations on account of Operating Costs (or promptly refund such overpayment if the amount exceeds one months Annual Fixed Rent or the term of this Lease has ended and Tenant has no further obligation to Landlord); if the total of such remittances is less than Tenants Operating Cost Obligation for such Operating Year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord within thirty (30) days after being so notified by Landlord.
If the Commencement Date shall occur or the term of this Lease shall end on any date other than the first or last day of an Operating Year, then the amount of Tenants Operating Cost Obligation which may be payable by Tenant as provided in this Subsection 4.2.3 shall be pro-rated on a daily basis based on a 365 day Operating Year.
Operating Costs shall include, subject to the limitations set forth herein, all costs and expenses paid or incurred for the operation, cleaning, management, maintenance, repair, upkeep and security of the Property, including, without limitation:
(a) all salaries, wages, fringe benefits, payroll taxes and workers compensation insurance premiums related thereto and all other costs paid or incurred with respect to employment of personnel engaged in operation, administration, cleaning, maintenance, repair, upkeep and security of the Property including, without limitation, supervisors, property managers, accountants, bookkeepers, janitors, carpenters, engineers, mechanics, electricians and plumbers (provided, however, that if such personnel shall be used jointly on other property of Landlord or its affiliate(s), such costs shall be suitably prorated among the Property and such other properties);
(b) all utilities and other costs related to provision of heat (including oil, steam and/or gas), electricity, air conditioning, and water (including sewer charges) and other utilities to the Property (exclusive of reimbursement to Landlord for any of same received as a result of direct billing to any tenant of the Building);

(g) costs of compliance with any health, safety, fire, zoning, building and handicapped accessibility laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes and orders of governmental authorities applicable to the Property (as the same may be amended from time to time, collectively, Laws ), applicable to the Building or the Property, which conformance is not the responsibility of Tenant, and which Landlord is required to perform, and costs of routine testing and monitoring of indoor Building air and water quality for any Hazardous Materials (as defined in Subsection 6.2.7);
(h) all costs incurred in connection with the administration and supervision of all matters referred to in items (a) through (g) hereof and in performing Landlords obligations under Article 5, including Landlords office overhead costs provided that, if any such administrative or supervisory personnel are also employed on other property of Landlord, such cost of compensation shall be suitably prorated among the Property and such other properties;
(i) payments under all service contracts relating to matters referred to in Items (a) through (h) hereof;

(k) attorneys fees and disbursements (exclusive of any such fees and disbursements incurred in tax abatement proceedings or in the preparation of leases) and auditing and other professional fees and expenses.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this Lease, a capital expenditure may be included in Operating Costs under this Lease only if such expenditure is (i) made to comply with any Laws with which the Property complied, or was not required to comply, prior to the Commencement Date, or with any amendment or change in interpretation of any such Laws after the Commencement Date, (ii) made to replace any equipment or small tools or (iii) designed to reduce Operating Costs over time (any of the items in (i)-(iii) being Allowed Capital Expenditures ).

determined by Landlord as being the interest rate being charged at the time of the original capital expenditure for long-term mortgages by institutional lenders on like properties; provided, however that with respect to expenditures designed to reduce other Operating Costs, the annual charge-off may be equal to the yearly cost savings achieved as reasonably estimated by Landlord.
Operating Costs shall not include the following:

Within one hundred eighty (180) days following each Operating Year during the term of this Lease, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a year-end statement of Operating Costs and Taxes for the previous Operating Year (each a Final Statement ), such Operating Costs and Taxes to be determined in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied. If Tenant disputes the amount set forth in the Final Statement and provided Tenant shall have paid all amounts invoiced by Landlord on account of Operating Costs for the applicable Operating Year, Tenant, at Tenants sole cost and expense except as hereinafter provided, shall have the right to review Landlords general ledger, invoices and statements relating to Operating Costs and Taxes for such Operating Year at the place where such invoices and statements are customarily maintained by Landlord, provided such review is requested by notice given to Landlord (the Review Notice ) within two hundred and ten (210) days after Tenants receipt of the Final Statement and thereafter undertaken by Tenant or its accountants (provided such accountants are compensated on an hourly or lump-sum basis and not on a contingency fee basis) with due diligence. If Tenant objects to Landlords accounting of any Operating Costs, Tenant shall, not later than the later to occur of (i) the last day on which Tenant may give a Review Notice, or (ii) sixty (60) days after Landlord makes its general ledger, invoices and statements available to Tenant if Tenant has given Landlord a Review Notice timely, give Landlord a notice (the Objection Notice ) that Tenant disputes the correctness of such Operating Costs and/or Taxes, specifying the particular items which Tenant claims are incorrect. If Tenant shall not give an Objection Notice timely, then Tenant shall be deemed to have waived any and all objections to such Final Statement.
If it should be agreed or decided that Operating Costs were overstated in the Final Statement by five percent (5%) or more, then Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for the reasonable costs incurred by Tenant in reviewing Landlords general ledger, invoices and statements, Tenants reasonable arbitration costs, plus any excess amount paid by Tenant on account of overstated Operating Costs with interest at the Default Rate. If it should be decided
that Operating Costs were not overstated at all, then Tenant shall, as Additional Rent, promptly reimburse Landlord for its third-party costs reasonably incurred in the arbitration and in preparing for Tenants review of invoices and statements, and if Operating Costs shall have been understated or Tenant shall not have paid Tenants Operating Cost Obligation in full, Tenant shall, as Additional Rent, promptly pay any deficiency (together with interest at the Default Rate in the later case). In the event of an overstatement which is less than five percent (5%), Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the excess amount paid by Tenant on account of overstated Operating Costs without interest.
4.2.5 Insurance . Tenant shall, at its expense, take out and maintain, from the date upon which Tenant first enters the Premises for any reason, and throughout the term and thereafter so long as Tenant is in occupancy of any part of the Premises such commercially reasonable insurance, in such amounts, as shall be agreed by Landlord and Tenant.
Insofar as may be permitted by the terms of the insurance policies carried by it, each party hereby releases the other with respect to any claim which it might otherwise have against the other party for loss, damage or destruction of or to its property to the extent such damage is or would be covered by policies of insurance carried or required to be carried by the respective party hereunder. In addition, Tenant agrees to exhaust any and all claims against its insurer(s) prior to commencing an action against Landlord for any property loss.
4.2.6 Utilities . Except as otherwise provided in Article 5, Tenant shall make its own arrangements for the installation or provision of all utilities to the Premises.
4.3 Late Payment of Rent .

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if due to Landlords default, (i) the Premises or any portion of the Parking Facility is unusable by Tenant for a period of more than ten (10) consecutive Business Days following notice from Tenant expressly stating that the failure of Landlord to cure any claimed default timely shall give rise to Tenants rights of rent abatement due to (I) a lack of proper function of the HVAC or elevators or the electrical system at the Building or (II) the failure by Landlord to perform any maintenance, repairs or replacements which Landlord is obligated to perform pursuant to Subsection 5.1.4, and (ii) Tenant shall, concurrently with the giving of such notice, discontinue use of the Premises or the portion of the Property which is unusable as a result (other than for sporadic purposes such as salvage, security or retrieval of property), then as Tenants sole remedy (other than whatever rights it may ultimately have pursuant to Section 10.5) Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent on account of Taxes and Operating Costs shall be equitably abated for the period commencing as of the date of such failure and ending on the date that the Premises (or such portion of the Property) is rendered usable.

6.1.6 Landlords Right to Enter . During the term of this Lease and upon at least twenty-four (24) hours prior notice (which notice may, notwithstanding Section 10.1, be made by any reasonable means and need not be given at all in case of an imminent threat to life or
property or for routine access such as cleaning), Tenant shall permit Landlord and its agents and invitees to enter upon and examine the Premises and to show the Premises to prospective lessees (during the last eighteen (18) months of the term only), lenders, partners and purchasers and others having a bona fide interest in the Premises, and to make such repairs, alterations and improvements and to perform such testing and investigation as Landlord shall reasonably determine to make or perform; provided however any such work (other than any restoration following a casualty) which is not required by applicable Law to be made during normal business hours shall be performed after Tenants normal business hours or with Tenants consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) during Tenants normal business hours (in which event Landlord shall exercise due care to minimize any interference with Tenants operations).
6.1.7 Personal Property at Tenants Risk . At all times during the term and for such further time as Tenant (or any entity claiming by, through or under Tenant) occupies the Premises or any part thereof, to keep all of the furnishings, fixtures, equipment, effects and property of every kind, nature and description of Tenant and of all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant which, during the continuance of this Lease or any occupancy of the Premises by Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant, may be on the Property, at the sole risk and hazard of Tenant and if the whole or any part thereof shall be destroyed or damaged by fire, water or otherwise, or by the leakage or bursting of water pipes, steam pipes, or other pipes, by theft or from any other cause, no part of said loss or damage is to be charged to or to be borne by Landlord.
6.1.8 Yield Up . Tenant shall, at the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease, surrender all keys to the Premises; remove all of its trade fixtures and personal property in the Premises; remove such alterations, signs, additions or improvements ( Alterations ) made (or if applicable, restore any items removed) by or on behalf of Tenant as Landlord may request; repair all damage caused by such removal; and vacate and yield up the Premises (including all Alterations except as Landlord shall request Tenant to remove), broom clean and in the condition in which Tenant is obliged to keep and maintain the Premises by the provisions of this Lease, reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty excepted. If Landlord so requests, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall properly cap or seal any wiring and cabling it shall have installed in the Premises, properly label such wiring and cabling for future use, and surrender such wiring and cabling in a good and safe condition on or before the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease. Any property not so removed shall be deemed abandoned and may be removed and disposed of by Landlord in such manner as Landlord shall reasonably determine and Tenant shall pay Landlord the entire reasonable cost and expense incurred by it in effecting such removal and disposition and in making any incidental repairs and replacements to the Premises and for use and occupancy during the period after the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease and prior to the performance by Tenant of its obligations under this Subsection 6.1.8. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Subsection 6.1.8 Tenant shall not be required to remove any wiring or cabling nor shall Tenant be required to remove any other Alterations if (i) Tenants request for Landlords consent to make such Alterations contains a statement in capital letters advising Landlord that Landlord shall have waived its right to require removal of such Alterations at the end of the term unless Landlords consent to such Alterations contains a notice that removal at the end of the term is required, and (ii) Landlord does not so notify Tenant that removal shall be required.
6.1.9 Rules and Regulations . Tenant shall observe and abide by any reasonable rules and regulations promulgated by Landlord from time to time and which Landlord shall give Tenant reasonable prior notice.
6.1.10 Estoppel Certificate .

Any such statement delivered by Tenant pursuant to this Subsection 6.1.10 may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or mortgagee of the Property, of which Tenant is given notice at the time of request.
6.1.11 Landlords Expenses For Consents . Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, as Additional Rent, promptly on demand for all reasonable legal, engineering and other professional services expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with all requests by Tenant for consent or approval hereunder.
6.2 Negative Covenants . Tenant covenants at all times during the term and such further time as Tenant (or any entity claiming, whether in accordance with this Lease or otherwise, by, through or under Tenant) occupies the Premises or any part thereof:
6.2.1 Assignment and Subletting . Tenant shall not, without Landlords consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned and delayed) assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer this Lease or any interest herein or sublease (which term shall be deemed to include the granting of concessions and licenses and the like) all or any part of the Premises or suffer or permit this Lease or the leasehold estate hereby created or any other rights arising under this Lease 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 occupancy of the Premises by anyone other than Tenant.
In the event that Tenant shall intend to enter into any sublease or assignment, Tenant shall give Landlord notice (the Offerback Notice ) of such intent, identifying any area proposed to be sublet (the Proposed Sublet Space ) and the proposed commencement of any assignment or sublease. In the case of (i) any proposed assignment, Landlord may elect to terminate the term of this Lease and (ii) in the case of any proposed sublease, Landlord may elect to exclude from the Premises the Proposed Sublet Space by giving notice to Tenant (the Takeback Notice ) of any such election not later than thirty (30) days after the Offerback Notice. If Landlord shall give such Takeback Notice within such thirty (30) day period, upon that date (the Takeback Date ) which is the later to occur of (A) the proposed date of commencement of any such proposed sublease or assignment, or (B) the date which is thirty (30) days after the Takeback Notice, the term of this Lease shall terminate (in the case of (i) above) or the Premises shall be reduced (in the case of (ii) above) to exclude the Proposed Sublet Space whereupon
Annual Fixed Rent and Tenants Percentage shall be reduced proportionately; and in the case of Proposed Sublet Space, (1) (x) by the Takeback Date Landlord shall, at its expense, install any necessary demising wall separating the Proposed Sublet Space from the remainder of the Premises and any common area corridor and elevator lobby and perform any other alterations (for example but without limitation separation of utilities) required to enable the Proposed Sublet Space and the remainder of the Premises to function and/or be leased independently and (y) from and after the Takeback Date all areas and facilities of the Property which would be considered common areas of a multi-tenanted property shall thereafter no longer be deemed part of the Premises (despite the second paragraph of Section 2.1 or any other provision of this Lease to the contrary) but shall only be used in common with other tenant(s) of the Building and (2) the parties shall enter into an amendment to this Lease memorializing the reduction in the size of the Premises. If Landlord shall not give the Takeback Notice in response to an Offerback Notice, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to a sublease or assignment to a third party on substantially the terms and conditions set forth in the Offerback Notice which sublease or assignment shall be presented to Landlord for consent within one hundred eighty (180) days of the Offerback Notice. If Tenant shall not present to Landlord any such sublease or assignment on substantially the terms of the Offerback Notice within such 180-day period and shall still desire to enter into a sublease or assignment (whether due to passage of time or changed terms), the first sentence of this paragraph shall again become applicable.
If this Lease is assigned or if the Premises or any part thereof are sublet (or occupied by any party other than Tenant and its employees), Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Subsection 6.2.1, 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 Lease.
Any sublease of all or any portion of the Premises shall provide that it is subject and subordinate to this Lease and to the matters to which this Lease is or shall be subject or subordinate, that other than the payment of Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent due pursuant to Section 4.1 and Subsections 4.2.1 and 4.2.3 or any obligation relating solely to those portions of the Premises which are not part of the subleased premises, the subtenant shall comply with and be bound by all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder, and that unless Landlord waives such prohibition, the subtenant may not enter into any sub-sublease, sublease assignment, license or any other agreement granting any right of occupancy of any portion of the subleased premises without Landlords consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of the initial Tenant named herein and any immediate or remote successor in interest, and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the obligation to obtain the Landlords written approval in the case of any other subletting or assignment. The joint and several liability of the initial Tenant named herein and any immediate and remote successor in interest of Tenant (by assignment or otherwise), and the due performance of the obligations of this Lease on Tenants part to be performed or observed, shall
not in any way be discharged, released or impaired by any (a) agreement which modifies any of the rights or obligations of the parties under this Lease, (b) stipulation which extends the time within which an obligation under this Lease is to be performed, (c) waiver of the performance of an obligation required under this Lease, or (d) failure to enforce any of the obligations set forth in this Lease. No assignment, subletting or occupancy shall affect the Permitted Uses.
If the rent and other sums (including, without limitation, all monetary payments plus the reasonable value of any services performed or any other thing of value given by any assignee or subtenant in consideration of such assignment or sublease), either initially or over the term of any assignment or sublease, payable by such assignee or subtenant exceed the Annual Fixed Rent plus Additional Rent called for hereunder with respect to the space assigned or sublet, Tenant shall pay fifty percent (50%) of such excess to Landlord, as Additional Rent, payable monthly at the time for payment of Annual Fixed Rent, provided that in computing the amount of any such excess the amortized portion of the following Transfer Expenses paid by Tenant in connection with such assignment or sublease may first be deducted from the monthly amount of any such excess: (i) the cost of alterations or improvements made by Tenant to the Premises in order to consummate an assignment or to the portion of Premises that is subleased in order to consummate a sublease, (ii) reasonable brokerage commissions or fees and marketing fees, and (iii) any rental concession paid to such subtenant or assignee in connection with the assignment or sublease, and (iv) reasonable attorneys fees. Any such Transfer Expenses shall be amortized in equal monthly installments over the term of the assignment or sublease and shall be verified by Tenant by written documentation reasonably satisfactory to Landlord within sixty (60) days after the date of delivery of possession to the assignee or sublessee. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to abrogate the provisions of this Subsection 6.2.1 and Landlords acceptance of any sums pursuant to this paragraph shall not be deemed a granting of consent to any assignment of the Lease or sublease of all or any portion of the Premises.
6.2.2 Nuisance . Tenant shall not injure, deface or otherwise harm the Premises; nor commit any nuisance; nor make, allow or suffer any waste; nor make any use of the Premises which is improper, offensive or contrary to any Laws or which will invalidate or increase the premiums for any of Landlords insurance; nor conduct any auction, fire, going out of business or bankruptcy sales.
6.2.3 Floor Load; Heavy Equipment . Not to place a load upon any floor of the Premises exceeding the floor load per square foot area which such floor was designed to carry. Tenant shall not move any safe, heavy machinery, heavy equipment, freight or fixtures into or out of the Premises without Landlords prior consent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
6.2.4 Installation, Alterations or Additions . Except as otherwise provided herein, Tenant shall not make any installations, alterations, additions or improvements (collectively and individually referred to in this paragraph as work ) in, to or on the Premises without on each occasion obtaining the prior consent of Landlord. Landlord shall not impose a review or supervisory fee in connection with any work and Tenant may select its own architects and engineers to prepare any plans or specifications for any work. Landlords approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed with respect to alterations, additions or improvements which (a) do not affect the structural elements, plumbing, heating, ventilating, air-
conditioning, mechanical, electrical or life-safety systems of the Building, (b) are not visible from outside of the Building and (c) shall not materially increase Taxes or Operating Costs nor require Landlord to perform any work upon the Premises. In all cases where Landlords consent is required, Landlord shall provide Tenant with written consent (or non-consent stating the reasons for such non-consent) within twenty (20) Business Days after Tenants written request for such consent. Further, Landlord agrees to execute permit forms and otherwise assist in the obtaining of such permits to the extent required by any applicable governmental authority. Notwithstanding the first sentence hereof, Tenant may, without Landlords consent and without prior notice to Landlord install readily removable signs, bulletin boards, customary office art, business equipment, business fixtures and work stations in the Premises and may, provided it shall give Landlord not less than ten (10) Business Days prior notice but without the need for Landlords consent, install floor and wall covering and paint interior areas of the Building or any alterations, additions and improvements which cost less than $50,000.00 in the aggregate provided that such alterations, additions or improvements (a) do not affect the structural elements, plumbing, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, mechanical, electrical or life-safety systems of the Building, (b) are not visible from outside of the Building and (c) shall not materially increase Taxes or Operating Costs nor require Landlord to perform any work upon the Premises. All work to be performed to the Premises by Tenant shall (i) be performed in a good and workmanlike manner by contractors approved in advance by Landlord (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and in compliance with all Laws, (ii) be made at Tenants sole cost and expense, and (iii) be free of liens and encumbrances and become part of the Premises and the property of Landlord without being deemed additional rent for tax purposes, Landlord and Tenant agreeing that Tenant shall be treated as the owner of the work for tax purposes until the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof, subject to Landlords rights pursuant to Subsection 6.1.7 (if applicable) to require Tenant to remove the same at or prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof and, to the extent Landlord shall make such election, title thereto shall remain vested in Tenant at all times. Tenant shall pay promptly when due the entire cost of any work to the Premises so that the Premises shall at all times be free of liens. Prior to the commencement of any such work, and throughout and until completion thereof, Tenant shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, such insurance as shall be reasonably required by Landlord. Whenever and as often as any mechanics or materialmens lien shall have been filed against the Property based upon any act of Tenant or of anyone claiming through Tenant, Tenant shall within ten (10) Business Days of notice from Landlord to Tenant take such action by bonding, deposit or payment as will remove or satisfy the lien. Tenant shall, upon request of Landlord, execute and deliver to Landlord a bill of sale covering any work Tenant shall be required to surrender hereunder.
6.2.5 Abandonment . Tenant shall not abandon the Premises during the term of this Lease.
6.2.6 Signs . Tenant shall not paint or place any signs or place any curtains, blinds, shades, awnings, aerials, or the like, visible from outside the Premises. Landlord will not unreasonably withhold consent for signs or lettering on the entry doors to the Premises provided such signs conform to building standards adopted by Landlord and Tenant has submitted to Landlord a plan or sketch of the sign to be placed on such entry doors. Landlord agrees, however, to maintain a tenant directory in the lobby of the Building in which will be placed Tenants name and the location of the Premises in the Building.
6.2.7 Oil and Hazardous Materials . Tenant shall not introduce on or transfer to the Premises or Property, any Hazardous Materials (as hereinafter defined); nor dump, flush or otherwise dispose of any Hazardous Materials into the drainage, sewage or waste disposal systems serving the Premises or Property; nor to generate, store, use, release, spill or dispose of any hazardous materials in or on the Premises or the Property; nor transfer any Hazardous Materials from the Premises to any other location.

Tenant agrees that if it shall generate, store, release, spill, dispose of or transfer to the Premises or Property any Hazardous Materials in violation of this Lease, it shall promptly remove the same, at its sole cost and expense, in the manner provided by all applicable Environmental Laws, provided that such Hazardous Materials shall be discovered on or before the date which is three (3) years after the expiration or sooner termination of the term of this Lease. Furthermore, Tenant shall pay any fines, penalties or other assessments imposed by any governmental agency with respect to any such Hazardous Materials and shall forthwith repair and restore the landscaping and surface of the Property which it shall disturb in so removing any such Hazardous Materials to the condition which existed prior to Tenants disturbance thereof.
Tenant agrees to deliver promptly to Landlord any notices, orders or similar documents received from any governmental agency or official concerning any violation of any Law with respect to any Hazardous Materials affecting the Premises or Property. In addition, Tenant shall, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt, accurately complete any reasonable questionnaires from Landlord relating to Tenants use, generation, storage and/or disposal of Hazardous Materials at, to, or from the Premises.

If Landlord is required or elects to repair damage to the Building, this Lease shall continue in effect, but Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated with regard to any portion of the Building that Tenant is prevented from using or accessing by reason of such damage or its repair until Landlord performs the repairs so required of it. Such abatement shall continue from the date of the casualty until substantial completion of Landlords repair of the affected portion of the Building as so required.
7.1.2 Right to Terminate . Either party may, by notice to the other not less than one hundred eighty (180) days in advance, elect to terminate the term of this Lease (x) if it is not economically feasible to restore the Property to a condition substantially similar to that existing prior to the casualty, (y) if the time required to substantially complete restoration of the Property to a condition substantially similar to that existing prior to the casualty exceeds one year from the date of the casualty or (z) in the case of any material damage to the Property occurring in the last twenty four (24) months of the term.
In the event of any termination, the term shall expire as though such effective termination date were the date originally stipulated herein for the end of the term and the Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Rent (to the extent not abated as set forth above) shall be apportioned as of such date.

If a portion but not all of the Premises is taken by Condemnation, this Lease shall remain in effect; provided, however, that if the portion of the Premises or Building remaining or access thereto after the Condemnation will be unreasonable for Tenants continued use, then upon notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Landlord
notifies Tenant of the Condemnation, Tenant may terminate the term of this Lease effective as of the Date of Condemnation; and if it shall be uneconomical or impractical to continue to own or operate the Property as affected by such Condemnation then upon notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after notice of such Condemnation, Landlord may terminate the term of this Lease effective as of the Date of Condemnation.

Article 8
Defaults
8.1 Default of Tenant . (a) (i) If Tenant shall default in its obligations to pay the Annual Fixed Rent or Additional Rent or any other charges under this Lease when due or shall default in complying with its obligations under Subsection 6.1.10 of this Lease and if any such default shall continue for ten (10) Business Days after written notice from Landlord designating such default, or (ii) if as promptly as possible but in any event within thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant specifying any default or defaults other than those set forth in clause (i) Tenant has not cured the default or defaults so specified (or, if such failure cannot be cured within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant fails within such thirty (30) day period to commence, and thereafter diligently proceed with, all actions necessary to cure such failure as soon as reasonably possible); or (b) if Tenants leasehold interest shall be taken on
execution; or (c) if a lien or other involuntary encumbrance shall be filed against the Premises, and shall not discharged within sixty (60) days thereafter; or (d) if a petition shall be filed by Tenant for liquidation, or for reorganization or an arrangement under any provision of any bankruptcy law or code as then in force and effect; or (e) if an involuntary petition under any of the provisions of any bankruptcy law or code shall be filed against Tenant and such involuntary petition shall not be dismissed within sixty (60) days thereafter; or (f) if a custodian or similar agent shall be authorized or appointed to take charge of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant and such authorization is not rescinded within sixty (60) days thereafter, or (g) if Tenant dissolves or shall be dissolved or shall liquidate or shall adopt any plan or commence any proceeding, the result of which is intended to include dissolution or liquidation, or (i) if any order shall be entered in any proceeding by or against Tenant decreeing or permitting the dissolution of Tenant or the winding up of its affairs, then, and in any of such cases indicated in clauses (a) through (g) hereof (collectively and individually, a Default of Tenant), Landlord may, in addition to and not in derogation of any remedies for any preceding breach of covenant, immediately or at any time thereafter, give notice to Tenant terminating the term hereof, which notice shall specify the date of such termination, whereupon on the date so specified, the term of this Lease and all of Tenants rights and privileges under this Lease shall expire and terminate.
8.2 Remedies . In the event of any termination pursuant to Section 8.1, Tenant shall pay the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other charges payable hereunder up to the time of such termination, and thereafter Tenant, until the end of what would have been the term of this Lease in the absence of such termination, and whether or not the Premises shall have been re-let, shall be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord, as current damages, the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the term of this Lease if such termination had not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Premises, after deducting all reasonable expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all reasonable 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 Annual Fixed Rent would have been payable hereunder if the term of this Lease had not been terminated.
At any time after any such termination, in lieu of recovering damages pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraphs with respect to any period after the date of demand therefor, at Landlords election, Tenant shall pay to Landlord immediately and in full the net present value (discounted at the Prime Rate) of the amount, if any, by which (A) the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder from the date of such demand to the end of what would be the then unexpired term of this Lease had such termination not occurred (or in the case of reentry or retaking of possession of the Premises by Landlord or a termination of Tenants right of possession and/or occupancy of the Premises, to the end of the term of this Lease), shall exceed (B) the then fair rental value of the Premises for the same period.
Nothing contained in this Lease shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove for and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency by reason of the termination of this Lease, 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 Default of Tenant, Landlord may (i) relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof for a term or terms which may at Landlords option be equal to or less than or exceed the period the balance of the term of this Lease (or the balance of the term of this Lease if it shall not have been terminated) and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord reasonably considers advisable and necessary to relet the same and (ii) may make such alterations, repairs and decorations in the Premises as Landlord in its reasonable judgment considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting the Premises; and the making of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Landlord shall exercise reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages following a termination of the term of this Lease and surrender of possession of the Premises by Tenant, but only to the extent required by applicable Law.
8.3 Remedies Cumulative . Any and all rights and remedies which Landlord may have under this Lease, and at law and equity (including without limitation actions at law for direct, indirect, special and consequential damages except as provided in the following paragraph, for Tenants failure to comply with its obligations under this Lease shall be cumulative and shall not be deemed inconsistent with each other, and any two or more of all such rights and remedies may be exercised at the same time insofar as permitted by applicable Law.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby waives, and Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord for, any claim for special or consequential losses or damages (excluding, for purposes of clarity, direct damages to which Landlord may be entitled under Section 8.2) or punitive damages arising out of any breach of this Lease by Tenant; provided, however, (i) the foregoing waiver shall not apply to claims asserted by a third party for which Landlord may be liable as a result, in whole or part, of conduct constituting a breach by Tenant of any of the terms of this Lease, and (ii) if Tenant fails to vacate and surrender possession of the Premises within three (3) months following the expiration or sooner termination of the term of this Lease then Tenant shall be liable for all lost profits, loss of income, economic loss and other special or consequential losses or damages which Landlord may incur as a result of breach of Tenants obligation to vacate and surrender possession of the Premises on or before the date of expiration or sooner termination of the term hereof.
8.4 Landlords Right to Cure Defaults . Provided that Landlord has delivered written notice to Tenant and afforded Tenant an opportunity to cure, Landlord shall have the right, but shall not be required, to pay such reasonable amounts or do any reasonable act which requires the expenditure of monies which may be necessary or appropriate by reason of the failure or neglect of Tenant to comply with any of its obligations under this Lease, and in the event of the exercise of such right by Landlord, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord forthwith upon demand, as Additional Rent, all such reasonable amounts paid including reasonable attorneys fees, together with interest thereon at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to the lesser of two percent (2%) over the Prime Rate or the maximum rate allowed by Law. Such opportunity to cure shall be identified in any notice to Tenant hereunder and shall be ten (10) Business Days after any such notice except in instances of Tenants failure to comply with Subsection 4.2.5 or any other
breach by Tenant which shall pose an imminent and material threat to life or property in which case the opportunity to cure shall be that time consistent with Landlords customary practices and procedures for similar instances (if any) and otherwise shall be consistent with prudent commercial office building owner practices. Prime Rate shall mean the annual floating rate of interest, determined daily and expressed as a percentage from time to time announced by Bank of America as its prime or base rate, so-called, or if at any time Bank of America ceases to announce such a rate, as announced by the largest national or state-chartered banking institution then having an office in the City of Boston and announcing such a rate. If at any time neither Bank of America nor the largest national or state-chartered banking institution having an office in the City of Boston is announcing such a floating rate, Prime Rate shall mean a rate of interest, determined daily, which is two hundred basis points above the 14-day moving average closing trading price of 90-day U.S. Treasury Bills.
8.5 Holding Over . Any occupancy of all or any portion of the Premises after the expiration or early termination of the term of this Lease shall be deemed a holding over and shall be treated as a daily tenancy from month to month terminable by either party on not less than thirty (30) days prior notice. During the first three (3) months of any such holding over (the First 3-Month Period ), Tenant shall pay Annual Fixed Rent at the rate equal to 150% of the Annual Fixed Rent in effect immediately prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the term, and during any period after the First 3-Month Period, Tenant shall pay Annual Fixed Rent at the rate equal to 175% of the sum of Annual Fixed Rent plus Additional Rent on account of Operating Costs and Taxes in effect immediately prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the term. Tenant shall pay to Landlord all damages, direct and/or consequential (foreseeable and unforeseeable), sustained by reason of any such holding over except as provided in clause (ii) of the second paragraph of Section 8.3. Otherwise, all of the covenants, agreements and obligations of Tenant applicable during the term of this Lease shall apply and be performed by Tenant during such period of holding over as if such period were part of the term of this Lease, except that during any period of holding over beyond the First 3-Month Period Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Additional Rent on account of Operating Costs or Taxes.
8.6 Effect of Waivers of Default . Any consent or permission by Landlord to any act or omission which otherwise would be a breach of any covenant or condition herein, shall not in any way be held or construed (unless expressly so declared) to operate so as to impair the continuing obligation of any covenant or condition herein, or otherwise, except as to the specific instance, operate to permit similar acts or omissions.
8.7 No Waiver, etc . The failure of Landlord to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon the strict performance of, any covenant or condition of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such violation nor prevent a subsequent act, which would have originally constituted a violation, from having all the force and effect of an original violation. The receipt by Landlord of rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed to have been a waiver of such breach by Landlord, or by Tenant, unless such waiver be in writing signed by the party to be charged. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by Landlord to or of any breach of any agreement or duty shall be construed as a waiver or consent to or of any other breach of the same or any other agreement or duty.
8.8 No Accord and Satisfaction . No acceptance by Landlord of a lesser sum than the Annual Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or any other charge then due shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest installment of such rent or charge due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent or other charge be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlords right to recover the balance of such installment or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.
Article 9
Rights of Holders
9.1 Rights of Mortgagees and Ground Lessors . If and only if Tenant receives so-called nondisturbance agreement(s) ( Nondisturbance Agreements ) whereby its rights under this Lease shall be recognized by any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee, this Lease, and all rights of Tenant hereunder, are and shall be subject and subordinate to any ground or master lease, and all renewals, extensions, modifications and replacements thereof, and to all mortgages, which may now or hereafter affect the Building or the Property and/or any of such leases, whether or not such mortgages 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 to all renewals, modifications, replacements and extensions of such leases and such mortgages and all consolidations of such mortgages. 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 any of their respective successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination (but only if Tenant receives the Nondisturbance Agreement(s) as aforesaid). Any lease to which this Lease is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate is herein called Superior Lease and the lessor of a Superior Lease or its successor in interest, at the time referred to, is herein called Superior Lessor; and any mortgage to which this Lease is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate, is herein called Superior Mortgage and the holder of a Superior Mortgage is herein called Superior Mortgagee.
If any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee or the nominee or designee of any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Lease, whether through possession or foreclosure action or delivery of a new lease or deed, or otherwise, then at the request of such party so succeeding to Landlords rights (herein called Successor Landlord) and upon such Successor Landlords written agreement to accept Tenants attornment, Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such Successor Landlord as Tenants landlord under this Lease and shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment. Upon such attornment, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the Successor Landlord and Tenant upon all of the terms, conditions and covenants as are set forth in this Lease subject to the terms of any applicable Nondisturbance Agreement. Tenant agrees at any time and from time to time to execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of Tenants agreement to attorn, as aforesaid.
9.2 Non-Disturbance . Landlord represents that as of the Date of this Lease the Property is not subject to any Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage other than Bank of America
(the Existing Lender ). Landlord shall, prior to the Commencement Date, obtain a so-called nondisturbance agreement (a Nondisturbance Agreement ) in a commercially reasonable form (including an agreement committing the Existing Lender to disburse casualty insurance proceeds and Awards for restoration) for Tenant from the Existing Lender.
Article 10
Miscellaneous Provisions

Notices from landlord may be given by Landlords Agent, if any, or Landlords attorney. Notices from Tenant may be given by Tenants attorney.
10.2 Quiet Enjoyment; Landlords Right to Make Alterations, Etc . Landlord agrees that upon Tenants paying the rent and performing and observing the agreements, conditions and other provisions on its part to be performed and observed, Tenant shall and may peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises during the term hereof without any manner of hindrance or molestation from Landlord or anyone claiming under Landlord, subject, however, to the terms of this Lease.
10.3 Lease not to be Recorded . Tenant agrees that it will not record this Lease. Both parties shall, upon the request of either, execute and deliver a notice or short form of this Lease in such form, if any, as may be permitted by applicable statute. In no event shall such document set forth the rent or other charges payable by Tenant pursuant to this Lease; and any such document shall expressly state that it is executed pursuant to the provisions contained in this Lease and is not intended to vary the terms and conditions of this Lease.
10.4 Assignment of Rents and Transfer of Title; Limitation of Landlords Liability . With reference to any assignment by Landlord of Landlords interest in this Lease, or the rents payable hereunder, conditional in nature or otherwise, which assignment is made to the holder of a mortgage on property which includes the Premises, Tenant agrees that the execution thereof by
Landlord, and the acceptance thereof by the holder of such mortgage shall never be treated as an assumption by such holder of any of the obligations of Landlord hereunder unless such holder shall, by notice sent to Tenant, specifically otherwise elect and that, except as aforesaid, such holder shall be treated as having assumed Landlords obligations hereunder (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.1) only upon foreclosure of such holders mortgage and the taking of possession of the Premises.
Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the term Landlord as used in this Lease, so far as covenants or obligations to be performed by Landlord are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners at the time in question of the Property, and in the event of any transfer or transfers of such title to said property, Landlord (and in case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be concurrently freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, without any further instrument or agreement, of all liability with respect to the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed, it being intended hereby that the covenants and obligations contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord, shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Landlord, its successors and assigns, only during and in respect of their respective successive period of ownership of the Property.
Tenant, its successors and assigns, shall not assert nor seek to enforce any claim for breach of this Lease against any of Landlords assets other than Landlords interest in the Property, and Tenant agrees to look solely to such interest for the satisfaction of any liability or claim against Landlord under this Lease, it being specifically agreed that in no event whatsoever shall Landlord ever be personally liable for any such liability.
Landlord agrees that no trustee, officer, director, general or limited partner, member, shareholder, beneficiary, employee or agent of Tenant (including any person or entity from time to time engaged to supervise and/or manage the operation of Tenant) shall be held to any liability, jointly or severally, for any debt, claim, demand, judgment, decree, liability or obligation of any kind (in tort, contract or otherwise) of, against or with respect to Tenant or arising out of any action taken or omitted for or on behalf of Tenant.
10.5 Landlords Default . Except for the purposes of Section 5.2 or Section 10.6, Landlord shall not be deemed to be in breach of, or in default in the performance of, any of its obligations under this Lease unless it shall fail to perform such obligation(s) and such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice has been given by Tenant to Landlord specifying the nature of Landlords alleged breach or default, or such additional time as is reasonably required to correct any such breach or default (provided that Landlord shall commence such cure promptly following Tenants notice thereof and proceed with due diligence to cure same). Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease or to claim any offset or counterclaim against any rent due hereunder for any breach or default by Landlord hereunder, except to the extent expressly provided by this Lease. In no event shall Landlord ever be liable to Tenant for any punitive damages or for any loss of business or any other special or consequential damages suffered by Tenant from whatever cause.
10.6 Tenants Self-Help Remedies . If Landlord defaults in the performance of any obligation on its part under Sections 5.1, 5.3 or 5.4 to such an extent that Tenant is unable to use
all or any portion of the Premises for the operation of its business in the ordinary course, and Landlord shall not have commenced efforts to cure such default within twenty (20) Business Days after notice thereof from Tenant complying with the following paragraph or shall Landlord thereafter fail to proceed diligently to complete such cure, then Tenant, at its option, may, but shall not be obligated to, in a commercially reasonable fashion, cure such default for the account of Landlord. Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for any reasonable amount paid or any contractual liability reasonably incurred by Tenant in curing such Landlord default within thirty (30) days after Tenant gives Landlord notice thereof (which shall include appropriate documentation describing, in reasonable detail, any work or services provided by Tenant for the account of Landlord, together with supporting invoices therefor), and if Landlord shall fail to reimburse Tenant within such thirty-day period, said amount together with interest at the Default Rate may be deducted by Tenant from the next or any succeeding payment of installments of Annual Fixed Rent hereunder until the amount due (together with such interest) has been recovered in full.
Any notice given by Tenant pursuant to the first sentence of the preceding paragraph shall expressly state that the failure of Landlord to cure any such default timely shall give rise to Tenants right to cure pursuant to this Section 10.6.
If Landlord, acting in good faith, shall dispute that Tenant is entitled to exercise its rights pursuant to this Section 10.6 for any reason, or the amount that Tenant shall claim to be due Tenant thereunder, Landlord may, at any time within ten (10) days following notice form Tenant that it intends to exercise such rights or notice from Tenant of the costs incurred by Tenant, as applicable, by notice to Tenant refer the dispute to arbitration as provided in Section 10.7. If arbitration shall be instituted, Tenant may not exercise its right to cure and no deduction may be made against Annual Fixed Rent unless and until there shall be an Award in favor of Tenant.
10.7 Arbitration .
10.7.1 Any disputes, claims or controversies between the parties (i) arising out of or relating to this Lease, or (ii) brought by or on behalf of any shareholder of Landlord or Tenant (which, for purposes hereof, shall mean any shareholder or member of record or any beneficial owner of shares of or membership interests in Landlord or Tenant, or any former shareholder or member of record or beneficial owner of shares of or membership interests in Landlord or Tenant), either on his, her or its own behalf, on behalf of Landlord or Tenant or on behalf of any series or class of shares of Landlord or Tenant or shareholders or members of Landlord or Tenant against Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, or any trustee, officer, manager (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agent or employee of Landlord or Tenant, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Lease, including this arbitration agreement, or the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws (or analogous governing instruments) of Landlord or Tenant (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 those Rules may be modified in this Section 10.7. For the avoidance of doubt, and not as a limitation, Disputes are intended to include derivative actions against trustees, officers or managers of Landlord or Tenant and class actions by a shareholder against those individuals or entities and Landlord or Tenant. For the
avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party. For purposes of this Section 10.7, all references to Landlord and Tenant shall include all their respective direct or indirect parent entities.
10.7.2 There shall be three arbitrators. If there are only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of such parties. If there are 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 within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be. If either a claimant (or all claimants) or a respondent (or all respondents) fail to timely select an arbitrator then the party (or parties) who has selected an arbitrator may request the AAA to provide a list of three proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules (each of whom shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) and the party (or parties) that failed to timely appoint an arbitrator shall have ten days from the date the AAA provides such list to select one of the three arbitrators proposed by AAA. If such party (or parties) fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the party (or parties) who have appointed the first arbitrator shall then have ten days to select one of the three arbitrators proposed by AAA to the second arbitrator; and, if he/they should fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the AAA shall select, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, one of the three arbitrators it had proposed as the second arbitrator. The two arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint the third and presiding arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the second arbitrator. If the third arbitrator has not been appointed 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.
10.7.3 The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
10.7.4 There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.
10.7.5 In rendering an award or decision (the Award ), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Any arbitration proceedings or 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 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.
10.7.6 Except to the extent expressly provided by this Lease or as otherwise agreed by 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, award any portion of Landlords or Tenants award, as applicable, to the claimant or the claimants 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.
10.7.7 An 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.
10.7.8 Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset. Each party against which the Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the thirtieth (30 th ) day following the date of the Award or such other date as the Award may provide.
10.7.9 This Section 10.7 is intended to benefit and be enforceable by the shareholders, directors, officers, managers (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agents or employees of Landlord and Tenant and Landlord and Tenant and shall be binding on the shareholders and members of Landlord and Tenant and Landlord and Tenant, as applicable, and shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that such individuals or entities may have by contract or otherwise.
10.8 Brokerage . Tenant warrants and represents that it has dealt with no broker in connection with the consummation of this Lease, and in the event of any brokerage claims or liens, against Landlord or the Property predicated upon prior dealings with Tenant, Tenant agrees to defend the same and indemnify and hold Landlord harmless against any such claim, and to discharge any such lien.
10.9 Applicable Law and Construction . This Lease shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and if any provisions of this Lease shall to any extent be invalid, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby. Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that Landlord has not made and is not making, and Tenant, in executing and delivering this Lease, is not relying upon, any warranties, representations, promises or statements, except to the extent that the same are expressly set forth in this Lease or in any other written agreement which may be made between the parties concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Lease and which shall expressly refer to this Lease. All understandings and agreements heretofore made between the parties are merged in this Lease and any other such written agreement(s) made concurrently herewith, which alone fully and completely express the agreement of the parties and which are entered into after full investigation, neither party relying upon any statement or representation not embodied in this Lease or any other such written agreement(s) made concurrently herewith. This Lease may be amended, and the provisions hereof may be waived or modified, only by instruments in writing executed by Landlord and Tenant. The titles of the several Articles and Sections contained herein are for convenience only and shall not be considered in construing this Lease. Except as herein otherwise provided, the terms hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns, respectively, of Landlord and Tenant. The reference
contained to successors and assigns of Tenant is not intended to constitute a consent to assignment by Tenant.
WITNESS the execution hereof under seal on the day and year first above written.

Five Star Quality Care, Inc. Announces Expansion Plans
28 New Senior Living Communities (3,038 living units)
Newton, MA (May 12, 2011): Five Star Quality Care, Inc. (NYSE: FVE) today announced expansion plans involving a total of 28 senior living communities with 3,038 living units as follows:
Five Star has entered binding agreements to acquire six senior living communities located in Indiana for approximately $123 million. These high quality senior living communities contain a total of 738 separate living units: 191 independent living apartments; 525 assisted living suites; and 22 units which are specially designated for Alzheimers care. The current occupancy at these communities is approximately 91% and all of the residents pay for services at these communities with private ( i.e ., not government funded Medicaid or Medicare) resources. These six communities are in addition to 10 senior living communities (925 living units) currently operated by Five Star in Indiana, including the nationally recognized Meadowood Retirement Community located adjacent to Indiana University in Bloomington.
The purchase price for these six Indiana communities of approximately $123 million will be paid by Five Stars assuming existing mortgage debt on certain communities totaling approximately $19.5 million, by a one year bridge loan commitment from Senior Housing Properties Trust (NYSE: SNH) for up to $80 million, and by Five Stars using cash on hand or borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The purchase of these six communities is expected to close starting in June 2011, subject to obtaining required regulatory approvals, lender consents for mortgage assumptions and satisfaction of other closing conditions.
Simultaneously with the announcement of the Indiana expansion, Five Star announced that it has agreed upon terms to assume operations at 20 senior living communities in the Southeast United States, where Five Star already has a significant market presence. These 20 communities contain 2,111 living units, including 814 independent living apartments, 939 assisted living suites, 311 units specially designated for Alzheimers care and 47 skilled nursing beds (at two locations). These communities are all high quality facilities where over 80% of the historical revenues have been paid by residents from their private resources. The states in which these 20 communities are located and Five Stars existing operations in those states are as follows:

The 20 communities in the Southeast are being purchased by Senior Housing. Five of these communities will be leased by Five Star for rents totaling $575,000 per month ($6.9 million per year), which rent may increase starting in 2013 based upon percentages of gross revenues at the communities. The remaining 15 communities will be managed by Five Star for a taxable subsidiary of Senior Housing. The management fee will be a percentage of gross revenues realized at these communities (estimated to be about $1.8 million to $2.0 million in fees to Five Star in the first year) plus a percentage of net cash flows from these facilities after paying operating costs and an agreed base return to Senior Housing. The leased facilities will be added to certain combination leases currently existing between Five Star and Senior Housing. The new management contract will be for a term of 20 years, and Five Star will have two consecutive renewal options of 15 years each. Five Star will not be required to invest any working capital in connection with this management contract.
The Southeast area communities to be leased by Five Star are currently approximately 97% occupied. The communities to be managed by Five Star are currently approximately 85% occupied. Five Star expects to begin operating the 20 communities to be leased from, and managed for, Senior Housing as Senior Housing acquires these communities starting in June 2011; however, certain of these acquisitions are likely to be delayed and may not be completed until the third quarter of 2011 or thereafter because of required third party consents for debt assumptions or for other reasons.
Five Star also announced today that it has recently closed two smaller expansions:
· On May 1, 2011, Five Star purchased the Granite Gate senior living community in Prescott, AZ for $25.6 million. This 116 unit high quality community is approximately 97% occupied and all of the residents pay for services with private resources. The purchase price was paid by Five Stars assuming a Fannie Mae mortgage for $18.7 million and using cash on hand for the balance. This community includes approximately 7 acres of land for possible expansion. Five Star currently operates five other senior living communities in Arizona with 1,042 living units.
· Also on May 1, 2011, Five Star began to lease Crimson Pointe, a 73 unit assisted living community in Rockford, IL. This community was recently acquired by Senior Housing and Five Stars lease requires rent of approximately $50,000/month ($600,000/year) plus percentage rent starting in 2013. This community is approximately 86% occupied and all the residents of this community pay for services from private resources. Five Star operates only one other community in Illinois with 112 living units.
Five Star was formerly a subsidiary of Senior Housing until it became a separate publicly owned company in 2001; Senior Housing is Five Stars largest shareholder (approximately 9.0%); one of Five Stars Managing Directors is also a Managing Trustee of Senior Housing; both Five Star and Senior Housing contract for certain management services from Reit Management & Research LLC, or RMR; and Five Star and Senior Housing have other relationships. Because of these circumstances, the terms of the bridge loan for Five Stars acquisition of the Indiana communities and of the leases and management agreements between Five Star and Senior Housing described above were approved by Independent
Directors of Five Star and Independent Trustees of Senior Housing who are not also Directors or Trustees of the other party and who were represented by separate counsel.
Five Star Quality Care, Inc. is a senior living and healthcare services company which owns, leases and manages senior living communities, including primarily private pay independent and assisted living communities located throughout the U.S. Five Star also operates five institutional pharmacies and two rehabilitation hospitals. Five Star is headquartered in Newton, Massachusetts.
WARNING REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
THIS PRESS RELEASE INCLUDES FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 AND OTHER SECURITIES LAWS. THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE BASED UPON FIVE STARS CURRENT BELIEFS AND EXPECTATIONS BUT THEY ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO OCCUR AND MAY NOT OCCUR FOR VARIOUS REASONS, SOME OF WHICH MAY BE BEYOND FIVE STARS CONTROL. FOR EXAMPLE:
· THIS PRESS RELEASE STATES THAT FIVE STAR HAS SIGNIFICANT OPERATIONS WITHIN MOST OF THE STATES WHERE IT PLANS TO EXPAND. AN IMPLICATION OF THESE STATEMENTS MAY BE THAT FIVE STAR WILL INCUR ONLY SLIGHT MARGINAL COSTS TO ASSUME THE NEW OPERATIONS AND THAT FIVE STAR WILL BE ABLE TO REALIZE PROFITS FROM ITS EXPANDED OPERATIONS. THE EXPANSION OF FIVE STARS BUSINESS WILL INVOLVE THE RISKS THAT THE NEW OPERATIONS MAY NOT BE EFFICIENTLY INTEGRATED, THAT EMPLOYEES MAY LEAVE OR THAT OCCUPANCY MAY DECLINE CAUSING CASH FLOW AND EXPECTED PROFITS TO DECLINE. ALSO, THE CURRENT OCCUPANCIES AT THE INDIANA COMMUNITIES, AT THE LEASED SOUTHEAST COMMUNITIES AND AT THE ARIZONA COMMUNITY WHOSE OPERATIONS FIVE STAR HAS ASSUMED OR WILL BE ASSUMING ARE CURRENTLY ABOVE INDUSTRY AVERAGES. THERE IS NO GUARANTY THAT FIVE STAR WILL BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN THESE OCCUPANCIES. IF THESE OCCUPANCIES DECLINE, THE CASH FLOWS FROM THESE OPERATIONS WILL
DECLINE AND FIVE STARS FUTURE OPERATIONS OF THESE COMMUNITIES MAY NOT BE PROFITABLE.
· THIS PRESS RELEASE STATES THAT FIVE STAR WILL FUND ITS ACQUISITION OF THE INDIANA COMMUNITIES, IN PART, WITH A ONE YEAR BRIDGE LOAN FROM SENIOR HOUSING FOR UP TO $80 MILLION. THIS BRIDGE LOAN PROVIDES THAT IF IT IS NOT REPAID BEFORE ITS MATURITY, SENIOR HOUSING MAY SATISFY THE LOAN BY ACQUIRING CERTAIN OF THE COMMUNITIES WHICH SECURE REPAYMENT AND LEASING THEM TO FIVE STAR. FIVE STAR EXPECTS TO REPAY THIS LOAN BEFORE ITS MATURITY; HOWEVER, FIVE STARS ABILITY TO DO SO WILL BE LARGELY DEPENDENT UPON MARKET CONDITIONS WHICH ARE BEYOND FIVE STARS CONTROL. ACCORDINGLY, FIVE STAR CAN PROVIDE NO ASSURANCE THAT IT WILL BE ABLE TO REFINANCE THIS BRIDGE LOAN OR REGARDING THE TERMS OF ANY SUCH REFINANCING.
· THIS PRESS RELEASE STATES THAT FIVE STAR EXPECTS TO COMPLETE ITS ACQUISITION OF THE SIX INDIANA COMMUNITIES STARTING IN JUNE 2011 AND THAT FIVE STAR WILL BEGIN TO LEASE AND MANAGE THE 20 SOUTHEAST COMMUNITIES STARTING IN JUNE 2011. THESE CLOSINGS ARE SUBJECT TO FIVE STARS OBTAINING REGULATORY APPROVALS, CERTAIN LENDER CONSENTS AND SATISFACTION OF OTHER CONDITIONS. FIVE STAR CURRENTLY EXPECTS THAT ALL OF THE REQUIRED APPROVALS AND CONSENTS WILL BE OBTAINED AND OTHER CONDITIONS SATISFIED, BUT SUCH APPROVALS AND CONSENTS ARE NOT ASSURED AND FIVE STAR CANNOT CONTROL THE TIMING OF REGULATORY APPROVALS, LENDER CONSENTS OR SATISFACTION OF OTHER CONDITIONS. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT FIVE STARS BEGINNING TO OPERATE SOME OR ALL OF THESE COMMUNITIES MAY BE DELAYED OR MAY NOT OCCUR.
· THIS PRESS RELEASE STATES THAT THE BRIDGE LOAN, THE LEASES AND THE MANAGEMENT CONTRACT TERMS BETWEEN FIVE STAR AND SENIOR HOUSING WERE APPROVED BY INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS OF FIVE STAR
