Item 1.01.   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 24, 2011, we entered into a new $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Royal Bank of Canada and a syndicate of other lenders. The new credit facility replaces our prior $550.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility that was scheduled to mature on December 31, 2011.  The stated maturity date of the new credit facility is June 24, 2015 and, subject to the payment of an extension fee and meeting certain other conditions, there is an option to extend the stated maturity date by one year.  We initially borrowed $254.0 million under the new credit facility to repay the $254.0 million outstanding under the terminated credit facility and repaid $70.0 million of this amount on June 27, 2011.

 

Amounts borrowed under the new credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 160 basis points, subject to adjustment should our credit ratings change.  Borrowings under the new credit facility are unsecured, and are guaranteed by most of our subsidiaries.  Funds available under the new credit facility may be drawn, repaid and redrawn until maturity and there are no scheduled principal payments prior to maturity.  The new credit facility provides for acceleration of principal and payment of all other amounts payable thereunder upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default.  The proceeds of the new credit facility are available for general business purposes, including acquisitions.  The new credit facility agreement contains a number of customary financial covenants which generally restrict our ability to incur debts, including debts secured by mortgages on our properties, in excess of calculated amounts, require us to maintain a minimum net worth and require us to maintain other financial ratios.

 

The foregoing description of the new credit facility is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the new credit facility agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 1.02.  Termination of Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Reference is hereby made to the information in Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, which is incorporated in this Item 1.02 by reference.

 

Item 2.03.  Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

Reference is hereby made to the information in Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, which is incorporated in this Item 2.03 by reference.

Item 9.01.  Financial Statements and Exhibits.

 

Explanatory Note

 

As previously reported in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated November 18, 2010, or our November 18 Current Report, and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 8, 2010, or our December 8 Current Report, we agreed to purchase 27 medical office buildings, or MOBs, from CWH pursuant to a series of purchase and sale agreements dated as of November 12, 2010.  The agreements to purchase these 27 MOBs were more fully described in the November 18 Current Report.  Financial statements and pro forma financial information required by Items 9.01(a) and (b) of Form 8-K in connection with the matters reported in the November 18 Current Report were reported by us in the December 8 Current Report.  As of January 26, 2011, we completed the acquisitions of all 27 MOBs from CWH for an aggregate purchase price of $470.0 million, excluding closing costs.  We funded these acquisitions using cash on hand, proceeds from an equity offering, proceeds from the sale of unsecured senior notes and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.  The terms of the purchases of the 27 properties were reviewed and approved by special committees of each of our and CWH’s Boards of Trustees composed solely of Independent Trustees who are not also trustees of the other party and who were represented by separate counsel.

 

As previously reported in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 8, 2011, or our March 8 Current Report, and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 13, 2011, or our May 13 Current Report, in March 2011, we announced that we had agreed to acquire 20 senior living communities located in five states in the Southeast United States for approximately $304.0 million.  In June 2011, we acquired 14 of these communities for approximately $196.6 million, excluding closing costs.  We funded these acquisitions using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and by assuming approximately $48.1 million of mortgage loans.  We expect to acquire the remaining six communities in July 2011, subject to satisfaction of various conditions to closing, including various regulatory approvals and lender consents.  We expect to fund the remaining acquisitions using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and by assuming approximately $30.3 million of mortgage loans.

 

On May 12, 2011, we entered into agreements for Five Star to manage 15 of these 20 communities, or the Managed Communities, under long term contracts with us.  We refer to these 15 communities as the Managed Communities and the other five communities as the Leased Communities.  Ten of the 14 communities acquired in June 2011 are Managed Communities.  In June 2011, Five Star began leasing the other four of these 14 communities, and we expect Five Star to begin leasing the remaining Leased Community from us when we acquire it.  The management agreements and leases became effective when we acquired the related senior living communities or will become effective if and when we acquire the remaining communities.  As noted above, the closing of our acquisitions of the remaining 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 the closing of these remaining acquisitions will occur or when Five Star will begin to operate or lease these remaining communities.  The terms of the management agreements and leases between us and Five Star were reviewed and approved by special committees of each of our Board of Trustees and Five Star’s board of

directors composed solely of Independent Trustees or independent directors who are not also trustees or directors of the other party and who were represented by separate counsel.

 

In addition to the foregoing, during the second quarter of 2011, we acquired an additional senior living community with 73 living units and four additional MOBs with approximately 174,408 aggregate square feet for an aggregate purchase price of $29.3 million, excluding closing costs, and sold five properties for an aggregate sale price of $19.1 million.  As of the date of this Current Report, we also have agreements to acquire six additional senior living communities and three additional MOBs from unaffiliated parties for aggregate purchase prices of approximately $123.8 million, excluding closing costs.  We have also agreed to sell one property for a sale price of $525,000.

 

This Current Report provides updated unaudited pro forma financial statements reflecting the acquisition of the 27 MOBs, the acquisitions and the pending acquisitions of other properties described above, including the 20 properties reported on our March 8 Current Report, the management of the Managed Communities by Five Star and leasing of the Leased Communities to Five Star.  Our sales and pending sale of properties are not reflected in the pro forma financial statements.

 

Information Regarding Certain Relationships

 

CWH is our former parent entity and we own 250,000 common shares of CWH.  Five Star is our former subsidiary and our largest tenant, and we are Five Star’s largest shareholder.  In June 2011, we acquired 1.0 million shares of Five Star common stock in Five Star’s public offering of 11.5 million shares of common stock (including shares issued pursuant to an exercise of an underwriters’ overallotment option) for an aggregate purchase price of $5.0 million, and as of June 21, 2011, we owned approximately 8.9% of Five Star’s outstanding shares of common stock.  We have numerous continuing relationships with Five Star, including the arrangements referred to in this report.

 

We and CWH are both managed by Reit Management & Research LLC, or RMR, and RMR also provides management services to Five Star. One of our Managing Trustees, Mr. Barry Portnoy, is Chairman and majority owner of RMR and serves as a managing director of Five Star and as a managing trustee of CWH.  Our other Managing Trustee, Mr. Adam Portnoy, Mr. Barry Portnoy’s son, is an owner, President, Chief Executive Officer and a Director of RMR and is President and a managing trustee of CWH.  Frederick N. Zeytoonjian serves as an Independent Trustee of both us and of CWH.  Each of our executive officers is also an officer of RMR.

 

For more information about the relationships among us, our Trustees and executive officers, RMR, CWH, Five Star and other companies to which RMR provides management services, and about the risks which may arise from these relationships, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, or our Annual Report, and our other filings with the SEC, including the sections captioned “Business,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Related Person Transactions” in our Annual Report, the section captioned “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Related Person Transactions” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, or our Quarterly Report, the information

regarding our Trustees and executive officers and the section captioned “Related Person Transactions and Company Review of Such Transactions” in our Proxy Statement dated February 24, 2011 relating to our 2011 Annual Shareholders Meeting, or our Proxy Statement, the March 8 Current Report and the May 13 Current Report.  Our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report, our Quarterly Report, our Proxy Statement, the March 8 Current Report and the May 13 Current Report, are available at the SEC’s website: www.sec.gov.

 

Further Background on Pro Forma Data

 

This Current Report, on page F-1 and the following pages, includes pro forma financial data for us, which includes the 27 MOBs that have been acquired and other completed and pending acquisitions since January 1, 2010.  Because changes will likely occur in occupancy, rents and expenses with respect to the properties acquired and because our pending acquisitions may not be completed, the pro forma financial data presented should not be considered as a projection of future results.  Differences could also result from changes in our portfolio of investments, in interest rates, in our capital structure and for other reasons.

 

As described above, we purchased 21 of the 27 MOBs we had agreed to acquire from CWH in November and December 2010.  In January 2011, we purchased the remaining six MOBs from CWH.  The aggregate purchase price of the 27 MOBs was $470.0 million, excluding closing costs, which we funded using cash on hand, proceeds from an equity offering, proceeds from the sale of unsecured senior notes and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.  Between January 1, 2011 and June 24, 2011, we acquired 15 senior living communities and five additional MOBs from unaffiliated parties for an aggregate purchase price of $240.0 million, excluding closing costs.  We funded these acquisitions using cash on hand, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, proceeds from our equity offering in December 2010 and proceeds from our sale of unsecured senior notes in January 2011, and by assuming approximately $48.1 million of mortgage loans.

 

We expect to fund our pending acquisitions of six additional senior living communities and three additional MOBs described above using borrowings under our revolving credit facility and by assuming approximately $43.7 million of mortgage debt.

 

Certain properties acquired by us are leased to tenants, including Five Star, on a long term basis under “net leases” that transfer substantially all of the properties’ operating and holding costs to the tenants.  We have previously provided summary financial data and other information regarding Five Star in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC and in our Annual Report.  Our other tenants with net leases are engaged in a range of health care related industries including health services, biotechnology research and pharmaceutical research and manufacturing with no significant concentration in any particular industry other than health care generally.  The majority in number of these net lease tenants, other than Five Star, are privately owned.  Certain leases are guaranteed by affiliates of the tenants.  As of the date of this Current Report, we believe that each tenant is current in its rent payments due to us.  The five most significant net lease tenants are: Five Star; Aurora Health Care, or Aurora; Scripps Research Institute, or Scripps; Fallon Community Health Plan, or Fallon Clinic; and HIP Health Plan of New York, or HIP.  Aurora is one of the largest not for profit hospital and health care providers in Wisconsin.  Scripps is one of the largest not for profit health research institutes in the United States and is located in La Jolla,

California.  Fallon Clinic is one of the largest multi-specialty group practices providing healthcare services in central Massachusetts.  HIP is one of the largest health insurance companies providing clinical services in the New York City area.

Introduction to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2011, reflects our financial position as if the transactions described in the footnotes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements were completed on March 31, 2011.  The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and for the year ended December 31, 2010, present our results of operations as if the transactions described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements were completed on January 1, 2010.  These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with our financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011, included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2011, for the year ended December 31, 2010, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and the financial statements included in Item 9.01(a) of our Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 8, 2010.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements assume the acquisitions of 27 medical office buildings, or MOBs, from CommonWealth REIT, or CWH, are financed with cash on hand, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, proceeds from an equity issuance in December 2010 and proceeds from the sale of unsecured senior notes in January 2011.  These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are provided for informational purposes only and upon completion of the planned long term financing for these acquisitions, our financial position and results of our operations may be significantly different than what is presented in these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements.  In the opinion of our management, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of the transactions described above have been included in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The allocation of our acquisitions and planned acquisitions subsequent to March 31, 2011, described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and reflected in these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements is based upon preliminary estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Consequently, amounts preliminarily allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, or to be acquired or assumed, could change significantly from those used in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

These unaudited pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the expected results of operations for any future period.  Differences could result from future changes in our portfolio of investments, changes in interest rates, changes in our capital structure, changes in property level operating expenses, changes in property level revenues including rents expected to be received on leases in place or signed during and after 2011 or for other reasons.  Consequently, actual future results are likely to be different than amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements related to these transactions.

(D)                   Represents the effect on rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2011, of the non-cash straight line rent adjustments of the six MOBs acquired from CWH in January 2011 as described in Note (B).

26



 

this Section, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of such Revolving Loan to be provided by such Lender.  In such event, if such Lender does not make available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of such Revolving Loan on the date and at the time specified in Section 2.1.(c), then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand the amount of such Revolving Loan with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Revolving Loan is made available to the Borrower but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.  Notwithstanding the prior sentence, if any Lender shall fail to make available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of a Revolving Loan on the date and at the time specified in Section 2.1.(c) but shall make such proceeds available to the Administrative Agent at a later time on such date, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent one day’s worth of interest computed in accordance with clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, unless such Lender can provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that such Lender has timely made such proceeds available to the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation, a Fed Reference Number screen shot evidencing the date and time such Lender’s wire was sent.  If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay the amount of such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolving Loan, the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the borrowing.  Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make available the proceeds of a Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender.

(d)           Reimbursement Obligations.  Upon receipt by the Issuing Bank from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the amount to be paid by the Issuing Bank as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to such beneficiary in respect of such demand; provided, however, that the Issuing Bank’s failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice shall not discharge the Borrower in any respect from the applicable Reimbursement Obligation.  The Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of each demand for payment under such Letter of Credit at or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind.  Upon receipt by the Issuing Bank of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, the Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to each Lender that has acquired a participation therein under the second sentence of the immediately following subsection (i) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such payment.

 

(e)           Manner of Reimbursement.  Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in the immediately preceding subsection (d), the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, the Borrower shall submit a timely request for such borrowing as provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement.  If the Borrower fails to so advise the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, or if the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuing Bank for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit by the date of such payment, the failure of which the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, then (i) if the applicable conditions contained in Article V. would permit the making of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Revolving Loans (which shall be Base Rate Loans) in an amount equal to the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made available to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern time and (ii) if such conditions would not permit the making of

 

28



 

Revolving Loans, the provisions of subsection (j) of this Section shall apply.  The limitations set forth in the second sentence of Section 2.1.(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of Base Rate Loans under this subsection.

 

(f)            Effect of Letters of Credit on Commitments.  Upon the issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage and (ii) the sum of (A) the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) any related Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.

 

(g)           Issuing Bank’s Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligations.  In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under such Letters of Credit against such documents, the Issuing Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit.  The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be responsible for, and the Borrower’s obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall not be affected in any manner by, (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, facsimile, electronic mail, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or the Lenders.  None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Bank’s or Administrative Agent’s rights or powers hereunder.  Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), shall not create against the Issuing Bank any liability to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender.  In this connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit, and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (e), shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit

 

29



 

proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or Section 12.10., but not in limitation of the Borrower’s unconditional obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as provided in this Section and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (e), the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of any liability incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section, nothing in this Section shall affect any rights the Borrower may have with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit.

 

(h)           Amendments, EtcThe issuance by the Issuing Bank of any amendment, supplement or other modification to any Letter of Credit shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, that the request therefor be made through the Issuing Bank), and no such amendment, supplement or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if required by Section 12.7.) shall have consented thereto.  In connection with any such amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable under the last sentence of Section 3.5.(c).

 

(i)            Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit.  Immediately upon the issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit each Lender shall be deemed to have absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the liability of the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit and each Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to the Issuing Bank to pay and discharge when due, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the immediately following subsection (j) below, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Issuing Bank’s liability under such Letter of Credit.  In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Lender to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank in respect of any Letter of Credit pursuant to the immediately following subsection (j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Issuing Bank by the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to the second and the last sentences of Section 3.5.(c)).

 

(j)            Payment Obligation of Lenders.  Each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, on demand in immediately available funds in Dollars the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each drawing paid by the Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to the

 

30



 

immediately preceding subsection (d); provided, however, that in respect of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Lender shall be required to fund, whether as a Revolving Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such drawing.  If the notice referenced in the second sentence of Section 2.2.(e) is received by a Lender not later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern time, then such Lender shall make such payment available to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on the date of demand therefor; otherwise, such payment shall be made available to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern time on the next succeeding Business Day.  Each Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, and the Administrative Agent’s right to receive the same for the account of the Issuing Bank, shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, (iii) the existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Section 10.1.(e) or (f) or (iv) the termination of the Commitments.  Each such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.

 

(k)           Information to Lenders.  Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit outstanding, the Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly deliver the same to each Lender and the Borrower, a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time.  Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, the Issuing Bank shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding.  Other than as set forth in this subsection, the Issuing Bank shall have no duty to notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder.  The failure of the Issuing Bank to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Lender from its obligations under the immediately preceding subsection (j).

 

Section 2.3.  Swingline Loans.

 

(a)           Swingline Loans.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, including without limitation Section 2.14., the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower, during the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Swingline Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, $50,000,000, as such amount may be reduced from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof.  If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans outstanding at such time exceeds the Swingline Commitment in effect at such time, the Borrower shall immediately pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender the amount of such excess.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder.

 

(b)           Procedure for Borrowing Swingline Loans.  The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender notice pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing or telephonic notice of each borrowing of a Swingline Loan.  Each Notice of Swingline Borrowing shall be delivered to the Swingline Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern time on the proposed date of such borrowing.  Any telephonic notice shall include all information to be specified in a written Notice of Swingline Borrowing and shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing sent to the Swingline Lender by telecopy on the same day of the giving of such telephonic notice.  Not later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern time on the date of the requested Swingline Loan and subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 5.2. for such borrowing, the Swingline Lender will make the proceeds of such Swingline Loan available to the Borrower in Dollars, in immediately available funds, at the account specified by the Borrower in the Notice of Swingline Borrowing.

 

31



 

(c)           Interest.  Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin or at such other rate or rates as the Borrower and the Swingline Lender may agree from time to time in writing.  Interest on Swingline Loans is solely for the account of the Swingline Lender (except to the extent a Lender acquires a participating interest in a Swingline Loan pursuant to the immediately following subsection (e)).  All accrued and unpaid interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable on the dates and in the manner provided in Section 2.4. with respect to interest on Base Rate Loans (except as the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may otherwise agree in writing in connection with any particular Swingline Loan).

 

(d)           Swingline Loan Amounts, Etc.  Each Swingline Loan shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, or such other minimum amounts agreed to by the Swingline Lender and the Borrower.  Any voluntary prepayment of a Swingline Loan must be in integral multiples of $100,000 or the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans (or such other minimum amounts upon which the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree) and in connection with any such prepayment, the Borrower must give the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent prior written notice thereof no later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern time on the day prior to the date of such prepayment.  The Swingline Loans shall, in addition to this Agreement, be evidenced by the Swingline Note.

 

(e)           Repayment and Participations of Swingline Loans.  The Borrower agrees to repay each Swingline Loan within one Business Day of demand therefor by the Swingline Lender and, in any event, within five (5) Business Days after the date such Swingline Loan was made; provided, that the proceeds of a Swingline Loan may not be used to pay a Swingline Loan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Swingline Loans on the Swingline Maturity Date (or such earlier date as the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree in writing).  In lieu of demanding repayment of any outstanding Swingline Loan from the Borrower, the Swingline Lender may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), request a borrowing of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans from the Lenders in an amount equal to the principal balance of such Swingline Loan.  The amount limitations contained in the second sentence of Section 2.1.(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of such Revolving Loans made pursuant to this subsection.  The Swingline Lender shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any such borrowing of Revolving Loans not later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern time at least one Business Day prior to the proposed date of such borrowing.  Promptly after receipt of such notice of borrowing of Revolving Loans from the Swingline Lender under the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing.  Not later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern time on the proposed date of such borrowing, each Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the account of the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the proceeds of the Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall pay the proceeds of such Revolving Loans to the Swingline Lender, which shall apply such proceeds to repay such Swingline Loan.  If the Lenders are prohibited from making Revolving Loans required to be made under this subsection for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation, the occurrence of any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 10.1.(e) or (f), each Lender shall purchase from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan, by directly purchasing a participation in such Swingline Loan in such amount and paying the proceeds thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in Dollars and in immediately available funds.  A Lender’s obligation to purchase such a participation in a Swingline Loan shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) any claim of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any other Person whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default (including without

 

32



 

limitation, any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 10.1. (e) or (f)), or the termination of any Lender’s Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged existence) of an event or condition which has had or could have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of any Loan Document by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.  If such amount is not in fact made available to the Swingline Lender by any Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof, at the Federal Funds Rate.  If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Swingline Lender’s demand therefor, and until such time as such Lender makes the required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of such unpaid participation obligation for all purposes of the Loan Documents (other than those provisions requiring the other Lenders to purchase a participation therein).  Further, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Loans, and any other amounts due it hereunder, to the Swingline Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in Swingline Loans that such Lender failed to purchase pursuant to this Section until such amount has been purchased (as a result of such assignment or otherwise).

 

Section 2.4.  Rates and Payment of Interest on Loans.

 

(a)           Rates.  The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of the making of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at the following per annum rates:

 

(i)            during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in effect from time to time), plus the Applicable Margin; and

 

(ii)           during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest Period therefor, plus the Applicable Margin.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, while an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender and the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, interest at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such Lender, on all Reimbursement Obligations and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender (including without limitation, accrued but unpaid interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law).

 

(b)           Payment of Interest. All accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount of each Loan shall be payable (i) monthly in arrears on the first day of each month, commencing with the first full calendar month occurring after the Effective Date and (ii) on any date on which the principal balance of such Loan is due and payable in full (whether at maturity, due to acceleration or otherwise).  Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand.  All determinations by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

(c)           Borrower Information Used to Determine Applicable Interest Rates.  The parties understand that the applicable interest rate for the Obligations and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Lenders by the Borrower (the “Borrower Information”).  If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason,

 

33



 

including without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by the Borrower) at the time it was delivered to the Administrative Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were lower than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such written notice.  Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Administrative Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s, or any Lender’s other rights under this Agreement.

 

Section 2.5.  Number of Interest Periods.

 

There may be no more than 6 different Interest Periods outstanding at the same time.

 

Section 2.6.  Repayment of Loans.

 

The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Revolving Loans on the Termination Date.

 

Section 2.7.  Prepayments.

 

(a)           Optional.  Subject to Section 4.4., the Borrower may prepay any Loan at any time without premium or penalty.  The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice of the prepayment of any Loan.  Each voluntary prepayment of Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof.

 

(b)           Mandatory.

 

(i)            Commitment Overadvance.  If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, exceeds the aggregate amount of the Commitments, the Borrower shall immediately upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders the amount of such excess.

 

(ii)           Application of Mandatory Prepayments.  Amounts paid under the preceding subsection (i) shall be applied to pay all amounts of principal outstanding on the Loans and any Reimbursement Obligations pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. and if any Letters of Credit are outstanding at such time, the remainder, if any, shall be deposited into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account for application to any Reimbursement Obligations.  If the Borrower is required to pay any outstanding LIBOR Loans by reason of this Section prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 4.4.

 

Section 2.8.  Continuation.

 

So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to any LIBOR Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan.  Each Continuation of a LIBOR Loan shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount, and each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period.  Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the

 

34



 

Borrower giving to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern time on the third Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation.  Such notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Loans and portions thereof subject to such Continuation and (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder.  Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.  Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Continuation.  If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Section, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, continue as a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of one month; provided, however that if a Default or Event of Default exists, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.9. or the Borrower’s failure to comply with any of the terms of such Section.

 

Section 2.9.  Conversion.

 

The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower’s giving of a Notice of Conversion to the Administrative Agent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication, Convert all or a portion of a Revolving Loan of one Type into a Revolving Loan of another Type; provided, however, a Base Rate Loan may not be Converted into a LIBOR Loan if a Default or Event of Default exists.  Each Conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount.  Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern time 3 Business Days prior to the date of any proposed Conversion.  Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Conversion.  Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type of Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Loan, the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan.  Each Notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.

 

Section 2.10.  Notes.

 

(a)           Notes.  Except in the case of a Lender that has requested not to receive a Revolving Note, the Revolving Loans made by each Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Revolving Note, payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Commitment as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.  The Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender to the Borrower shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Swingline Note payable to the order of the Swingline Lender.

 

(b)           Records.  The date, amount, interest rate, Type and duration of Interest Periods (if applicable) of each Loan made by each Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books and such entries shall be binding on the Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that (i) the failure of a Lender to make any such record shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents and (ii) if there is a discrepancy between such records of a Lender and the statements of accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.8., in the absence of manifest error, the statements of account maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.8. shall be controlling.

 

35



 

(c)           Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes.  Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i) written notice from a Lender that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, and (ii)(A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an unsecured agreement of indemnity from such Lender in form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or (B) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at its own expense execute and deliver to such Lender a new Note dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.

 

Section 2.11.  Voluntary Reductions of the Commitment.

 

The Borrower shall have the right to terminate or reduce the aggregate unused amount of the Commitments (for which purpose use of the Commitments shall be deemed to include the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities and the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans) at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium upon not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction (which in the case of any partial reduction of the Commitments shall not be less than $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount in the aggregate) and shall be irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the Administrative Agent (“Commitment Reduction Notice”).  Promptly after receipt of a Commitment Reduction Notice the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed termination or Commitment reduction.  The Commitments, once reduced or terminated pursuant to this Section, may not be increased or reinstated.  The Borrower shall pay all interest on the Loans, and the Fees under Section 3.5.(b) with respect to the amount of the Commitment being reduced, accrued to the date of such reduction or termination of the Commitments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, including but not limited to any applicable compensation due to each Lender in accordance with Section 4.4.

 

Section 2.12.  Extension of Termination Date.

 

The Borrower shall have the right, exercisable one time, to extend the current Termination Date by one year.  The Borrower may exercise such right only by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent at least 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the current Termination Date, a written request for such extension (an “Extension Request”).  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders if it receives an Extension Request promptly upon receipt thereof.  Subject to satisfaction of the following conditions, the Termination Date shall be extended for one year effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Extension Request and payment of the fee referred to in the following clause (ii): (i) immediately prior to such extension and immediately after giving effect thereto, (x) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and (y) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower and each other Loan Party in the Loan Documents to which any of them is a party, shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such extension with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically and expressly permitted under the Loan Documents and (ii) the Borrower shall have paid the Fees payable under Section 3.5.(d).  At any time prior to the effectiveness of any such extension, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate from the chief executive officer or chief financial officer certifying the matters referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (i)(x) and (i)(y).

Section 2.13.  Expiration Date of Letters of Credit Past Commitment Termination.

 

If on the date the Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero (whether voluntarily, by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise), there are any Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder with respect to which the Borrower has not complied with the conditions set forth in the second proviso of the second sentence of Section 2.2.(b), the Borrower shall, on such date, pay to the Administrative Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, an amount of money sufficient to cause the balance of available funds on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to equal the aggregate Stated Amount of such Letters of Credit for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

 

Section 2.14.  Amount Limitations.

 

Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender shall be required to make a Loan, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue a Letter of Credit and no reduction of the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.11. shall take effect, if immediately after the making of such Loan, the issuance of such Letter of Credit or such reduction in the Commitments the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, would exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments at such time.

 

Section 2.15.  Increase in Commitments.

 

The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time during the period beginning on the Effective Date to but excluding the Termination Date to request increases in the aggregate amount of the Commitments by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall be irrevocable once given; provided, however, that after giving effect to any such increases the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall not exceed $1,500,000,000 (less the aggregate amount of reductions of Commitments effected pursuant to Section 2.11.).  Each such increase in the Commitments must be an aggregate minimum amount of $50,000,000 and integral multiples of $10,000,000 in excess thereof.  The Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall manage all aspects of the syndication of such increase in the Commitments, including decisions as to the selection of the existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders to be approached with respect to such increase and the allocations of the increase in the Commitments among such existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders.  No Lender shall be obligated in any way whatsoever to increase its Commitment or provide a new Commitment, and any new Lender becoming a party to this Agreement in connection with any such requested increase must be an Eligible Assignee.  If a new Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, or if any existing Lender is increasing its Commitment, such Lender shall on the date it becomes a Lender hereunder (or in the case of an existing Lender, increases its Commitment) (and as a condition thereto) purchase from the other Lenders its Commitment Percentage (determined with respect to the Lenders’ respective Commitments and after giving effect to the increase of Commitments) of any outstanding Revolving Loans, by making available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such other Lenders, in same day funds, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans to be purchased by such Lender, plus (B) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the other Lenders under Section 2.2.(j) that have not been repaid, plus (C) interest accrued and unpaid to and as of such date on such portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans.  The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders amounts payable, if any, to such Lenders under Section 4.4. as a result of the prepayment of any such Revolving Loans.  Effecting the increase of the Commitments under this Section is subject to the following conditions precedent:  (x) no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence on the effective date of such increase, (y) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party shall be true and correct

 

37



 

in all material respects on the effective date of such increase except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically and expressly permitted hereunder, and (z)  the Administrative Agent shall have received each of the following, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:  (i) if not previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, copies certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of (A) all corporate and other necessary action taken by the Borrower to authorize such increase and (B) all corporate, partnership, member and other necessary action taken by each Guarantor authorizing the guaranty of such increase; (ii) an opinion of counsel to the Borrower and the Guarantors, and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders covering such matters as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent; and (iii) new Revolving Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any new Lenders and replacement Revolving Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any existing Lenders increasing their Commitments, in the amount of such Lender’s Commitment at the time of the effectiveness of the applicable increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments.  In connection with any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15. any Lender becoming a party hereto shall execute such documents and agreements as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

 

Section 2.16.  Funds Transfer Disbursements.

 

(a)           Generally.  The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by the Lenders or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Transfer Authorizer Designation Form.  The Borrower agrees to be bound by any transfer request: (i) authorized or transmitted by the Borrower; or (ii) made in the Borrower’s name and accepted by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in compliance with these transfer instructions, even if not properly authorized by the Borrower.  The Borrower further agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may rely solely on any bank routing number or identifying bank account number or name provided by the Borrower to effect a wire or funds transfer even if the information provided by the Borrower identifies a different bank or account holder than named by the Borrower.  The Administrative Agent is not obligated or required in any way to take any actions to detect errors in information provided by the Borrower.  If the Administrative Agent takes any actions in an attempt to detect errors in the transmission or content of transfer requests or takes any actions in an attempt to detect unauthorized funds transfer requests, the Borrower agrees that no matter how many times the Administrative Agent takes these actions the Administrative Agent will not in any situation be liable for failing to take or correctly perform these actions in the future and such actions shall not become any part of the transfer disbursement procedures authorized under this provision, the Loan Documents, or any agreement between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.  The Borrower agrees to notify the Administrative Agent of any errors in the transfer of any funds or of any unauthorized or improperly authorized transfer requests within fourteen (14) days after the Administrative Agent’s confirmation to the Borrower of such transfer.

 

(b)           Funds Transfer.  The Administrative Agent will, in its sole discretion, determine the funds transfer system and the means by which each transfer will be made.  The Administrative Agent may delay or refuse to accept a funds transfer request if the transfer would: (i) violate the terms of this authorization, (ii) require use of a bank unacceptable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or prohibited by any Governmental Authority, (iii) cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Federal Reserve or other regulatory risk control program or guideline or (iv) otherwise cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Applicable Law or regulation.

 

(c)           Limitation of Liability.  None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be liable to the Borrower or any other parties for (i) errors, acts or failures to act of others,

 

38



 

including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through which the Borrower’s transfers may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such entity shall be deemed an agent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, (ii) any loss, liability or delay caused by fires, earthquakes, wars, civil disturbances, power surges or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal constraints or other events beyond Administrative Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s control, or (iii) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, whether or not (x) any claim for these damages is based on tort or contract or (y) the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or the Borrower knew or should have known the likelihood of these damages in any situation.  Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank nor any Lender makes any representations or warranties other than those expressly made in this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE III. PAYMENTS, FEES AND OTHER GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

Section 3.1.  Payments.

 

(a)           Payments by Borrower.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest, Fees and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, not later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern time on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).  Subject to Section 10.5., the Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to the Administrative Agent the amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied.  Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender under this Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account of such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender.  Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement shall be paid to the Issuing Bank by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by the Issuing Bank to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account of the Issuing Bank.  In the event the Administrative Agent fails to pay such amounts to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, (i) by 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on the Business Day such funds are received by the Administrative Agent, if such amounts are received by 12:00 p.m. Eastern time on such date or (ii) by 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on the Business Day following the date such funds are received by the Administrative Agent, if such amounts are received after 12:00 p.m. Eastern time on any Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amount until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall continue to accrue at the rate, if any, applicable to such payment for the period of such extension.

 

(b)           Presumptions Regarding Payments by Borrower.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent on demand that amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at

 

39



 

the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

 

Section 3.2.  Pro Rata Treatment.

 

Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from the Lenders under Sections 2.1.(a), 2.2.(e) and 2.3.(e) shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the fees under Sections 3.5.(a), 3.5.(b), the first sentence of 3.5.(c), and 3.5.(d) shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.11. shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of Revolving Loans shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Loans held by them, provided that, subject to Section 3.9., if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Revolving Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans shall not be held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments in effect at the time such Revolving Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Revolving Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans being held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; (c) each payment of interest on Revolving Loans shall be made for the account of the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Revolving Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders; (d) the making, Conversion and Continuation of Revolving Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by Sections 4.1.(c) and 4.5.) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Loans and the then current Interest Period for each Lender’s portion of each such Loan of such Type shall be coterminous; (e) the Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Swingline Loans under Section 2.3., shall be in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages; and (f) the Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Letters of Credit under Section 2.2., shall be in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.  All payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts in respect of the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender only (except to the extent any Lender shall have acquired a participating interest in any such Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.3.(e), in which case such payments shall be pro rata in accordance with such participating interests).  Any payment or prepayment of principal or interest made during the existence of a Default or Event of Default shall be made for the account of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank in accordance with the order set forth in Section 10.5.

 

Section 3.3.  Sharing of Payments, Etc.

 

If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan made by it to the Borrower under this Agreement or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the Borrower or any other Loan Party through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by or on behalf the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Lender (other than any payment in respect of Specified Derivatives Obligations) not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such payment should be distributed to the Lenders in accordance with Section 3.2. or Section 10.5., as applicable, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by the other Lenders or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may actually be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.2. or Section 10.5., as applicable.  To such end, all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or

 

40



 

otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.  The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation.  Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.

 

Section 3.4.  Several Obligations.

 

No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.

 

Section 3.5.  Fees.

 

(a)           Closing Fee.  On the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and each Lender all loan fees as have been agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

 

(b)           Facility Fees. During the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Termination Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders a facility fee equal to the daily aggregate amount of the Commitments (whether or not utilized) times a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Facility Fee.  Such fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October during the term of this Agreement and on the Termination Date or any earlier date of termination of the Commitments or reduction of the Commitments to zero.  The Borrower acknowledges that the fee payable hereunder is a bona fide commitment fee and is intended as reasonable compensation to the Lenders for committing to make funds available to the Borrower as described herein and for no other purposes.

 

(c)           Letter of Credit Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin times the daily average Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (x) to and including the date such Letter of Credit expires or is cancelled or (y) to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full.  In addition to such fees, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Bank solely for its own account, a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit equal to one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) of the initial Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, in no event shall the aggregate amount of such fee in respect of any Letter of Credit be less than $1,000.  The fees provided for in this subsection shall be nonrefundable and payable, in the case of the fee provided for in the first sentence, in arrears (i) quarterly on the first day of January, April, July and October, (ii) on the Termination Date, (iii) on the date the Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero and (iv) thereafter from time to time on demand of the Administrative Agent and in the case of the fee provided for in the second sentence, at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit.  The Borrower shall pay directly to the Issuing Bank from time to time on demand all commissions, charges, costs and expenses in the amounts customarily charged or incurred by the Issuing Bank from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any other transaction relating thereto.

 

41



 

(d)           Extension Fee.  If the Borrower exercises its right to extend the Termination Date in accordance with Section 2.12., the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a fee equal to one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment (whether or not utilized).  Such fee shall be due and payable in full on the date the Administrative Agent receives the Extension Request pursuant to such Section.

 

(e)           Administrative and Other Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay the administrative and other fees of the Administrative Agent as provided in the Fee Letter and as may be otherwise agreed to in writing from time to time by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

 

Section 3.6.  Computations.

 

Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or any other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed.

 

Section 3.7.  Usury.

 

In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective Lender in writing that the Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith.  It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.  The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.4.(a)(i) and (ii) and, with respect to Swingline Loans, in Section 2.3.(c).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, facility fees, closing fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in each case, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, are charges made to compensate the Administrative Agent or any such Lender for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money.  All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.

 

Section 3.8.  Statements of Account.

 

The Administrative Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans, accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such account rendered by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon the Borrower absent manifest error.  The failure of the Administrative Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.

 

42



 

Section 3.9.  Defaulting Lenders.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

 

(a)           Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Requisite Lenders.

 

(b)           Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, Fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article X. or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.3. shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with subsection (e) below; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with subsection (e) below; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender under Section 2.2.(j) in respect of Letters of Credit (such amounts “L/C Disbursements”), in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Article V. were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (determined without giving effect to the immediately following subsection (d)).  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

 

43



 

(c)           Certain Fees.

 

(i)            No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Fee payable under Section 3.5.(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

 

(ii)           Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Fee payable under Section 3.5.(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to the immediately following subsection (e).

 

(iii)          With respect to any Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to the immediately preceding clauses (i) or (ii), the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such Fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liabilities or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to the immediately following subsection (d), (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such Fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such Fee.

 

(d)           Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (determined without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Article V. are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

 

(e)           Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans.

 

(i)            If the reallocation described in the immediately preceding subsection (d) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in this subsection.

 

(ii)           At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within 1 Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time.

(iii)          The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Liabilities, to be applied pursuant to the immediately following clause (iv).  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

 

(iv)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Liabilities (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

 

(v)           Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection following (x) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (y) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to the immediately preceding subsection (b), the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

 

(f)            Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (determined without giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to Fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

 

(g)           New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

 

45



 

Section 3.10.  Taxes; Foreign Lenders.

 

(a)           Taxes Generally.  All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all other Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future excise, stamp or other taxes, fees, duties, levies, imposts, charges, deductions, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding Excluded Taxes (such non-excluded items being collectively called “Taxes”).  If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any Applicable Law, then the Borrower will:

 

(i)            pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

 

(ii)           promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such Governmental Authority; and

 

(iii)          pay to the Administrative Agent for its account or the account of the applicable Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender will equal the full amount that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.

 

(b)           Tax Indemnification.  If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent, for its account or the account of the Issuing Bank or respective Lender, as the case may be, the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender as a result of any such failure.  For purposes of this Section, a distribution hereunder by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Borrower.

 

(c)           Tax Forms. Prior to the date that any Lender or Participant organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than that in which the Borrower is a resident for tax purposes becomes a party hereto or a Participant, as applicable, such Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Internal Revenue Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto (including Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI and W-8BEN, as applicable, or appropriate successor forms), properly completed, currently effective and duly executed by such Lender or Participant establishing that payments to it hereunder and under the Notes are (i) not subject to United States Federal backup withholding tax and (ii) not subject to United States Federal withholding tax under the Internal Revenue Code.  Each such Lender or Participant shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, (x) deliver further copies of such forms or other appropriate certifications on or before the date that any such forms expire or become obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form delivered to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and (y) obtain such extensions of the time for filing, and renew such forms and certifications thereof, as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent.  The Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount pursuant to the last sentence of subsection (a) above to any Lender or Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than that in which the Borrower is a resident for tax purposes or the Administrative Agent, if it is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than that in which the Borrower is a resident for tax purposes, if such Lender, such Participant or the Administrative

 

46



 

Agent, as applicable, fails to comply with the requirements of this subsection.  If any such Lender or Participant, to the extent it may lawfully do so, fails to deliver the above forms or other documentation, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from such payment to such Lender such amounts as are required by the Internal Revenue Code. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section, and costs and expenses (including all reasonable fees and disbursements of any law firm or other external counsel and the allocated cost of internal legal services and all disbursements of internal counsel) of the Administrative Agent.  The obligation of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments, repayment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

 

(d)           USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance.  In order for the Administrative Agent to comply with the USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56), prior to any Lender or Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent may request, and such Lender or Participant shall provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with federal law.

 

ARTICLE IV. YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.

 

Section 4.1.  Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy.

 

(a)           Capital Adequacy.  If any Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) becoming effective after the date of this Agreement affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, or any corporation controlling such Lender, as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Commitment or its making or maintaining Loans or participating in Letters of Credit below the rate which such Lender  or such corporation controlling such Lender could have achieved but for such compliance (taking into account the policies of such Lender or such corporation with regard to capital), then the Borrower shall, from time to time, within thirty (30) days after written demand by such Lender, pay to such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation controlling such Lender to the extent that such Lender determines such increase in capital is allocable to such Lender’s obligations hereunder.

 

(b)           Additional Costs.  In addition to, and not in limitation of the immediately preceding subsection, the Borrower shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender that it determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any LIBOR Loans or its obligation to make any LIBOR Loans hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such LIBOR Loans or such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital in respect of its LIBOR Loans or its Commitments (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that:  (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such LIBOR Loans or its Commitments (other than Excluded Taxes), or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other similar reserve requirement applicable to any other category of liabilities or category of extensions of credit or other assets by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined to the extent utilized when determining LIBOR for such

 

47



 

Loans) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by such Lender (or its parent corporation), or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitments of such Lender hereunder) or (iii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy).

 

(c)           Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Loans.  Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the immediately preceding subsection (a) and (b), if by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender that includes LIBOR Loans or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 4.5. shall apply).

 

(d)           Additional Costs in Respect of Letters of Credit.  Without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under the preceding subsections of this Section (but without duplication), if as a result of any Regulatory Change or any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement heretofore or hereafter issued by any Governmental Authority there shall be imposed, modified or deemed applicable any tax, reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against or with respect to or measured by reference to Letters of Credit and the result shall be to increase the cost to the Issuing Bank of issuing (or any Lender of purchasing participations in) or maintaining its obligation hereunder to issue (or purchase participations in) any Letter of Credit or reduce any amount receivable by the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder in respect of any Letter of Credit, then, upon demand by the Issuing Bank or such Lender, the Borrower shall pay promptly, and in any event within 3 Business Days of demand, to the Issuing Bank or, in the case of such Lender, to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by the Issuing Bank or such Lender, such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate the Issuing Bank or such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amount.

 

(e)           Notification and Determination of Additional Costs.  Each of the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, each Lender, and each Participant, as the case may be, agrees to notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender or such Participant to compensation under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Participant to give such notice shall not release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder (and in the case of a Lender, to the Administrative Agent); provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the Administrative Agent or a Lender, as the case may be, shall not be entitled to compensation for any such amount relating to any period ending more than six months prior to the date that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, first notifies the Borrower in writing thereof or for any amounts resulting from a change by any Lender of its Lending Office (other than changes required by Applicable Law).  The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, each Lender and each Participant, as the case may be, agrees to furnish to the Borrower (and in the case of the Issuing Bank, a Lender or a Participant to the Administrative Agent as well) a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request for compensation under this Section.  Determinations by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender, or such Participant, as the case may be, of the effect of any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

48



 

Section 4.2.  Suspension of LIBOR Loans.

 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of LIBOR for any Interest Period:

 

(a)           the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for LIBOR Loans as provided herein or is otherwise unable to determine LIBOR; or

 

(b)           the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined are not likely to adequately cover the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period,

 

then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, all of the Lenders, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (a), and any Lender affected thereby, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (b), shall be under no obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided in Section 4.5. that such condition no longer exists, and, so long as such condition remains in effect, such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be treated in accordance with Section 4.5.

 

Section 4.3.  Illegality.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that it is unlawful due to a change in (or the interpretation of), or adoption of, any law or regulation from a Governmental Authority becoming effective after the Agreement Date for such Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 4.5. shall be applicable).

 

Section 4.4.  Compensation.

 

The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender for any loss, cost or expense attributable to:

 

(a)           any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan, or Conversion of a LIBOR Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, acceleration) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

 

(b)           any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified in Article 5.2. to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Loan from such Lender on the date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base

 

49



 

Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan or Continue a LIBOR Loan on the requested date of such Conversion or Continuation.

 

Not in limitation of the foregoing, such compensation shall include, without limitation, in the case of a LIBOR Loan, an amount equal to the then present value of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on such LIBOR Loan for the remainder of the Interest Period at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loan, less (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same LIBOR Loan for the same period if LIBOR were set on the date on which such LIBOR Loan was repaid, prepaid or Converted or the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow, Convert or Continue such LIBOR Loan, as applicable, calculating present value by using as a discount rate LIBOR quoted on such date.  Upon the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof.  Any such statement shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

Section 4.5.  Treatment of Affected Loans.

 

If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1.(c), Section 4.2. or Section 4.3. then such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section 4.1.(c), Section 4.2., or Section 4.3. on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1., Section 4.2. or Section 4.3. that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

 

(a)           to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

 

(b)           all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

 

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1.(c) or 4.3. that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

 

Section 4.6.  Affected Lenders.

 

If (a) a Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.10. or 4.1., and the Requisite Lenders are not also doing the same, or (b) the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1.(b) or 4.3. but the obligation of the Requisite Lenders shall not have been suspended under such Sections, or (c) a Lender does not vote in favor of any amendment, modification or waiver to this Agreement or any other Loan Document which, pursuant to Section 12.7., requires the vote of such Lender, and the Requisite

 

50



 

Lenders shall have voted in favor of such amendment, modification or waiver then, so long as there does not then exist any Default or Event of Default, the Borrower may demand that such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected Lender shall promptly, assign its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.6.(b) for a purchase price equal to (x) the aggregate principal balance of all Loans then owing to the Affected Lender, plus (y) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the Affected Lender under Section 2.2.(j) that have not been repaid, plus (z) any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender, or any other amount as may be mutually agreed upon by such Affected Lender and Eligible Assignee.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate in effectuating the replacement of such Affected Lender under this Section, but at no time shall the Administrative Agent, such Affected Lender nor any other Lender nor any Titled Agent be obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee.  The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, the Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders.  The terms of this Section shall not in any way limit the Borrower’s obligation to pay to any Affected Lender compensation owing to such Affected Lender pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 3.10., 4.1. or 4.4.) with respect to any period up to the date of replacement.

 

Section 4.7.  Change of Lending Office.

 

Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.10., 4.1. or 4.3. to reduce the liability of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, except that such Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America.

 

Section 4.8.  Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans.

 

Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded LIBOR Loans through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article.

(f)            amounts due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Sections 11.6. and 12.10.;

77



 

(b)           Amounts on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested by the Administrative Agent in such Cash Equivalents as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion.  All such investments and reinvestments shall be held in the name of and be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders; provided, that all earnings on such investments will be credited to and retained in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.  The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords other funds deposited with the Administrative Agent, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

 

(c)           If a drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower and the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to use the monies deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the payment made by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing or the payee with respect to such presentment.

 

(d)           If an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may (and, if instructed by the Requisite Lenders, shall) in its (or their) discretion at any time and from time to time elect to liquidate any such investments and reinvestments and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations in accordance with Section 10.5.

 

(e)           So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, and to the extent amounts on deposit in or credited to the Letter of Credit Collateral Account exceed the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities then due and owing, the Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower within 5 Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such request from the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, such of amount of the credit balances in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account as exceeds the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities at such time.  When all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and no Letters of Credit remain outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, the balances remaining in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

 

(f)            The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent from time to time such fees as the Administrative Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Administrative Agent’s administration of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments of funds therein.

 

Section 10.7.  Performance by Administrative Agent.

 

If the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may, after notice to the Borrower, perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrower or such other Loan Party after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein.  In such event, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any

 

78



 

liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

 

Section 10.8.  Rights Cumulative.

 

The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders and the Specified Derivatives Providers under this Agreement, each of the other Loan Documents, the Fee Letter and Specified Derivatives Contracts shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law.  In exercising their respective rights and remedies the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders and the Specified Derivatives Providers may be selective and no failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any of the Lenders or any of the Specified Derivatives Providers in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

 

ARTICLE XI. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

 

Section 11.1.  Appointment and Authorization.

 

Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.  Nothing herein shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on the Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Agent”, “Administrative Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law.  Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.  The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article VIII. that the Borrower is not otherwise required to deliver directly to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent will furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to

 

79



 

personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law.  Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed the Administrative Agent otherwise.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders.

 

Section 11.2.  Wells Fargo as Lender.

 

Wells Fargo, as a Lender shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Wells Fargo in each case in its individual capacity.  Wells Fargo and its Affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the Issuing Bank or the other Lenders.  Further, the Administrative Agent and any Affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Issuing Bank or the other Lenders.  The Issuing Bank and the Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Wells Fargo or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower, other Loan Parties, other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

 

Section 11.3.  Approvals of Lenders.

 

All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and, as appropriate, a brief summary of all oral information provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.  Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of the Administrative Agent (together with a reasonable written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within fifteen (15) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.

 

Section 11.4.  Notice of Events of Default.

 

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”  If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is

 

80



 

also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”.  Further, if the Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default,” the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

 

Section 11.5.  Administrative Agent’s Reliance.

 

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other Person, or shall be responsible to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons, or to inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender or the Issuing Bank for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Specified Derivatives Providers in any such collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties.  The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment.

 

Section 11.6.  Indemnification of Administrative Agent.

 

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s respective Commitment Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a Lender) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable

Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders, if expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to the Administrative Agent) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws.  Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification.  The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement.  If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

 

Section 11.7.  Lender Credit Decision, Etc.

 

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to the Issuing Bank or such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank or any Lender.  Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the financial statements of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate.  Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents.  The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary.  Except for notices, reports and other

 

82



 

documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or furnished to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders and/or the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or the Issuing Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates.  Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that the Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Lender or the Issuing Bank.

 

Section 11.8.  Successor Administrative Agent.

 

The Administrative Agent may (a) resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower or (b) be removed as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents for gross negligence or willful misconduct upon 30 days’ prior written notice by all Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent).  Upon any such resignation or removal, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default or Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent).  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or giving of notice of removal of the Administrative Agent, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.  Such successor Administrative Agent shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or shall make other arrangements satisfactory to the current Administrative Agent, in either case, to assume effectively the obligations of the current Administrative Agent with respect to such Letters of Credit.  After any Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI. shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its Affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.

 

Section 11.9.  Titled Agents.

 

Each of the Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agents (each a “Titled Agent”) in each such respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligation hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders.  The titles given to the Titled Agents are solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the use of such titles does not impose on the Titled Agents any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Titled Agents to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.

Subject to Section 3.3. and in addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, each Lender, each Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, and each Participant, at any time or from time to time while an Event of Default exists, without notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of the Issuing Bank, a Lender, an Affiliate of the Issuing Bank or a Lender, or a Participant, subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Requisite Lenders exercised in their sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender, any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender, or such Participant, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations, irrespective of whether or not any or all of the Loans and all other Obligations have been declared to be, or have otherwise become, due and payable as permitted by Section 10.2., and although such Obligations shall be contingent or unmatured.

 

Section 12.5.  Litigation; Jurisdiction; Other Matters; Waivers.

 

(a)           EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY OF THE LENDERS WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES.  ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE LENDERS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK AND THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE FEE LETTER OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR

(c)           THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

 

Section 12.6.  Successors and Assigns.

 

(a)           Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of the immediately following subsection (b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of the immediately following subsection (d) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of the immediately following subsection (f) (and, subject to the last sentence of the immediately following subsection (b), any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in the immediately following subsection (d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

87



 

(b)           Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

 

(i)            Minimum Amounts.

 

(A)          in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of an assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it, or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

 

(B)           in any case not described in the immediately preceding subsection (A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (in each case, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that if, after giving effect to such assignment, the amount of the Commitment held by such assigning Lender or the outstanding principal balance of the Loans of such assigning Lender, as applicable, would be less than $5,000,000, then such assigning Lender shall assign the entire amount of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it.

 

(ii)           Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.

 

(iii)          Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (i)(B) of this subsection (b) and, in addition:

 

(A)          the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) a Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof;

 

(B)           the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Lender with a Commitment, an Affiliate of such a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such a Lender; and

 

(C) the consent of the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of a Commitment.

 

88



 

(iv)          Assignment and Acceptance; Notes.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $4,500 for each assignment, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.  If requested by the transferor Lender or the Assignee, upon the consummation of any assignment, the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes are issued to the Assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate.

 

(v)           No Assignment to Borrower.  No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

 

(vi)          No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

 

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately following subsection (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.10., 4.1., 4.4., 12.2. and 12.10. and the other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as provided in Section 12.11. with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with the immediately following subsection (d).

 

(c)           Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(d)           Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any  provision of this Agreement;

 

89



 

provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document that (w) increases such Lender’s Commitment, (x) extends the date fixed for the payment of principal on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender, (y) reduces the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (z) releases any Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty.  Subject to the immediately following subsection (e), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.10., 4.1., 4.4. to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.  To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.4. as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.3. as though it were a Lender.  Upon request from the Administrative Agent, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of the sale of any participation hereunder.

 

(e)           Limitations upon Participant Rights.  A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.10. and 4.1. than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.  A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.10. unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to comply with Section 3.10.(c) as though it were a Lender.

 

(f)            Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

 

(g)           No Registration.  Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction.

 

Section 12.7.  Amendments and Waivers.

 

(a)           Generally.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, (i) any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be given by the Lenders may be given, (ii) any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document may be amended, (iii) the performance or observance by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document may be waived, and (iv) the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Requisite Lenders (or the Administrative Agent at the written direction of the Requisite Lenders), and, in the case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of each Loan Party which is party thereto.

 

(b)           Certain Lender Consents.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing, and signed by Lenders having at least 66-2/3% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments of all Lenders, or if the Commitments have been terminated or reduced to zero, Lenders holding at least 66-2/3% of the principal amount of the aggregate outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities, do any of the following:

(ii)           amend Section 10.1.(l) or any of the definitions related thereto, or waive any Default or Event of Default occurring under such Section.

 

(c)           Consent of Lenders Directly Affected.  In addition to the foregoing requirements, no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing, and signed by each of the Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby (or the Administrative Agent at the written direction of such Lenders), do any of the following:

 

(i)            increase the Commitments of such Lenders (excluding any increase as a result of an assignment of Commitments permitted under Section 12.6. and any increases contemplated under Section 2.15.) or subject such Lenders to any additional obligations;

 

(ii)           reduce the principal of, or interest that has accrued or the rates of interest that will be charged on the outstanding principal amount of, any Loans or other Obligations;

 

(iii)          reduce the amount of any Fees payable to such Lenders hereunder;

 

(iv)          modify the definition of “Termination Date” (except in accordance with Section 2.12.), or otherwise postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loans or for the payment of Fees or any other Obligations, or extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Termination Date (except as permitted under Section 2.2.(b)) or, with respect to any Letter of Credit having an expiration date beyond the Termination Date as permitted by Section 2.2.(b), extend the expiration date of such Letter of Credit;

 

(v)           modify the definition of “Commitment Percentage” or amend or otherwise modify the provisions of Section 3.2.;

 

(vi)          amend this Section or amend any of the other definitions of the terms used in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents insofar as such definitions affect the substance of this Section;

 

(vii)         modify the definition of the term “Requisite Lenders” or modify in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or waive any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof;

 

(viii)        release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty except as contemplated by Section 7.13.(b);

 

(ix)           waive a Default or Event of Default under Section 10.1.(a); or

 

(x)            amend, or waive the Borrower’s compliance with, Section 2.14.

 

(d)           Amendment of Administrative Agent’s Duties, Etc.  No amendment, waiver or consent unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.3. or the

 

91



 

obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of the Swingline Lender.  Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.2. or the obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of the Issuing Bank.  Any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any Loan Document that (i) diminishes the rights of a Specified Derivatives Provider in a manner or to an extent dissimilar to that affecting the Lenders or (ii) increases the liabilities or obligations of a Specified Derivatives Provider shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the consent of the Lender that is (or having an Affiliate that is) such Specified Derivatives Provider.  No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon and any amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose set forth therein.  No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto.  Any Event of Default occurring hereunder shall continue to exist until such time as such Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section, notwithstanding any attempted cure or other action by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default.  Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

 

Section 12.8.  Nonliability of Administrative Agent and Lenders.

 

The relationship between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall be solely that of borrower and lender.  None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower and no provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, and no course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto, shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty owing by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to any Lender, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party.  None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations.

 

Section 12.9.  Confidentiality.

 

Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below) in accordance with its customary procedure for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices but in any event may make disclosure: (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any actual or proposed Assignee, Participant or other transferee in connection with a potential transfer of any Commitment or participation therein as permitted hereunder, or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations; (c) as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process or in connection with any legal proceedings, or as otherwise required by Applicable Law; (d) to the Administrative Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors (provided they shall be notified of the confidential nature of the information); (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under any Loan Document (or any Specified Derivatives Contract) or any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document (or any such Specified Derivatives Contract) or

 

92



 

the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section actually known by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender to be a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower; (g) to the extent requested by, or required to be disclosed to, any nationally recognized rating agency or regulatory or similar authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) having or purporting to have jurisdiction over it; (h) to bank trade publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications; (i) to any other party hereto; and (j) with the consent of the Borrower.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender may disclose any such confidential information, without notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, to Governmental Authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender or in accordance with the regulatory compliance policy of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender.  As used in this Section, the term “Information” means all information received from the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or Affiliate relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any Affiliate, provided that, in the case of any such information received from the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any Affiliate after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

 

Section 12.10.  Indemnification.

 

(a)           The Borrower shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders, all of the Affiliates of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any of the Lenders, and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, agents, employees and counsel (each referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all of the following (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”):  losses, costs, claims, penalties, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and the fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection therewith, but excluding Indemnified Costs indemnification in respect of which is specifically covered by Section 3.10. or 4.1. or expressly excluded from the coverage of such Sections) incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with, arising out of, or by reason of, any suit, cause of action, claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree or other proceeding (the foregoing referred to herein as an “Indemnity Proceeding”) which is in any way related directly or indirectly to: (i) this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the making of any Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder; (iii) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit; (iv) the Administrative Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s entering into this Agreement; (v) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders have established the credit facility evidenced hereby in favor of the Borrower; (vi) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are creditors of the Borrower and have or are alleged to have information regarding the financial condition, strategic plans or business operations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries; (vii) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are material creditors of the Borrower and are alleged to influence directly or indirectly the business decisions or affairs of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries or their financial condition; (viii) the exercise of any right

 

93



 

or remedy the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders may have under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Party in connection with matters described in this clause (viii) to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; (ix) any civil penalty or fine assessed by the OFAC against, and all costs and expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with defense thereof by, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender as a result of conduct of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary that violates a sanction administered or enforced by the OFAC; or (x) any violation or non-compliance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Applicable Law (including any Environmental Law) including, but not limited to, any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by (A) the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority or (B) any Governmental Authority or other Person under any Environmental Law, including any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by a Governmental Authority or other Person seeking remedial or other action to cause the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (or its respective properties) (or the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders and/or the Issuing Bank as successors to the Borrower) to be in compliance with such Environmental Laws.

 

(b)           The Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section shall apply to all Indemnity Proceedings arising out of, or related to, the foregoing whether or not an Indemnified Party is a named party in such Indemnity Proceeding.  In this connection, this indemnification shall cover all Indemnified Costs of any Indemnified Party in connection with any deposition of any Indemnified Party or compliance with any subpoena (including any subpoena requesting the production of documents).  This indemnification shall, among other things, apply to any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by other creditors of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, any shareholder of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (whether such shareholder(s) are prosecuting such Indemnity Proceeding in their individual capacity or derivatively on behalf of the Borrower), any account debtor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or by any Governmental Authority.

 

(c)           This indemnification shall apply to any Indemnity Proceeding arising during the pendency of any bankruptcy proceeding filed by or against the Borrower and/or any Subsidiary.

 

(d)           All out-of-pocket fees and expenses of, and all amounts paid to third-persons by, an Indemnified Party shall be advanced by the Borrower at the request of such Indemnified Party notwithstanding any claim or assertion by the Borrower that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party that such Indemnified Party will reimburse the Borrower if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is not so entitled to indemnification hereunder.

 

(e)           An Indemnified Party may conduct its own investigation and defense of, and may formulate its own strategy with respect to, any Indemnity Proceeding covered by this Section and, as provided above, all Indemnified Costs incurred by such Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed by the Borrower.  No action taken by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party in investigating or defending against any such Indemnity Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair the obligations and duties of the Borrower hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless each such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if (i) the Borrower is required to indemnify an Indemnified Party pursuant hereto and (ii) the Borrower has provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party that the Borrower has the financial wherewithal to reimburse such Indemnified Party for any amount paid by such Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnity Proceeding, such Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any such Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Borrower

 

94



 

where (x) no monetary relief is sought against such Indemnified Party in such Indemnity Proceeding or (y) there is an allegation of a violation of law by such Indemnified Party.

 

(f)            If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under Applicable Law.

 

(g)           The Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any of the other obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party.

 

References in this Section 12.10. to “Lender” or “Lenders” shall be deemed to include such Persons (and their Affiliates) in their capacity as Specified Derivatives Providers.

 

Section 12.11.  Termination; Survival.

 

This Agreement shall terminate at such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated, (b) all Letters of Credit have terminated or expired or been cancelled (other than Letters of Credit the expiration dates of which extend beyond the Termination Date as permitted under Section 2.2.(b) and in respect of which the Borrower has satisfied the requirements of such Section), (c) none of the Lenders is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans and the Issuing Bank is no longer obligated under this Agreement to issue Letters of Credit and (d) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as provided in the following sentence) have been paid and satisfied in full; provided, however, if on the Termination Date or any other date the Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero (whether voluntarily, by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise) any Letters of Credit remain outstanding, then the provisions of this Agreement applicable to Letters of Credit, including without limitation, the terms of Section 2.13 and the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations under Section 2.2.(d), shall remain in effect until all such Letters of Credit have expired, have been cancelled or have otherwise terminated.  The indemnities to which the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are entitled under the provisions of Sections 3.10., 4.1., 4.4., 11.6., 12.2. and 12.10. and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of Sections 12.5. and 12.13, shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the other Loan Documents, against events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times after any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this Agreement.

 

Section 12.12.  Severability of Provisions.

 

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been part of the Loan Documents.

 

95

To facilitate execution, this Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements may be executed in any number of counterparts as may be convenient or required (which may be effectively delivered by facsimile, in portable document format (“PDF”) or other similar electronic means).  It shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart.  All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single document.  It shall not be necessary in making proof of this document to produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of, each of the parties hereto.

All covenants hereunder shall be given in any jurisdiction independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

 

Section 12.17.  Limitation of Liability.

 

None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, or any Affiliate, officer, director, employee, attorney, or agent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the Fee Letter, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  The Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender or any of the Administrative Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, the Fee Letter, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or financed hereby.

The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower and each Lender acknowledge that each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower and each Lender.

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders have agreed to make available to the Borrower certain financial accommodations on the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, each Guarantor is owned or controlled by the Borrower, or is otherwise an Affiliate of the Borrower;

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower and each Guarantor, though separate legal entities, are mutually dependent on each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an integrated operation and have determined it to be in their mutual best interests to obtain financing from the Guarantied Parties through their collective efforts;

 

WHEREAS, each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the Guarantied Parties making such financial accommodations available to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and, accordingly, each Guarantor is willing to guarantee the Borrower’s obligations to the Guarantied Parties on the terms and conditions contained herein; and

 

WHEREAS, each Guarantor’s execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition to the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties’ making such financial accommodations to the Borrower.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by each Guarantor, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

Section 3.  Guaranty Absolute.  Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the documents evidencing the same, regardless of any Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Guarantied Parties with respect thereto.  The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional in accordance with its terms and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including without limitation, the following (whether or not such Guarantor consents thereto or has notice thereof):

 

(a)           (i) any change in the amount, interest rate or due date or other term of any of the Guarantied Obligations, (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of all or any portion of the Guarantied Obligations, (iii) any amendment or waiver of, or consent to the departure from or other indulgence with respect to, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other document or instrument evidencing or relating to any Guarantied Obligations, or (iv) any waiver, renewal, extension, addition, or supplement to, or deletion from, or any other action or inaction under or in respect of, the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other documents, instruments or agreements relating to the Guarantied Obligations or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Guarantied Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;

 

(b)           any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any other document, instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Guarantied Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;

 

(c)           any furnishing to the Guarantied Parties of any security for the Guarantied Obligations, or any sale, exchange, release or surrender of, or realization on, any collateral securing any of the Guarantied Obligations;

 

(d)           any settlement or compromise of any of the Guarantied Obligations, any security therefor, or any liability of any other party with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, or any subordination of the payment of the Guarantied Obligations to the payment of any other liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party;

 

(e)           any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to such Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or

 

B-2



 

any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Guaranty by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding;

 

(f)            any act or failure to act by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person which may adversely affect such Guarantor’s subrogation rights, if any, against the Borrower to recover payments made under this Guaranty;

 

(g)           any nonperfection or impairment of any security interest or other Lien on any collateral, if any, securing in any way any of the Guarantied Obligations;

 

(h)           any application of sums paid by the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the liabilities of the Borrower to the Guarantied Parties, regardless of what liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;

 

(i)            any defect, limitation or insufficiency in the borrowing powers of the Borrower or in the exercise thereof;

 

(j)            any defense, set off, claim or counterclaim (other than indefeasible payment and performance in full) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower, any other Loan party or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any Lender;

 

(k)           any change in corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower or any other Loan Party;

 

(l)            any statement, representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Loan Party under any Loan Document, or any amendment hereto or thereto, proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any respect; or

 

(m)          any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a Guarantor hereunder (other than indefeasible payment in full).

 

Section 4.  Action with Respect to Guarantied Obligations.  The Guaranteed Parties may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor, and without discharging any Guarantor from its obligations hereunder, take any and all actions described in Section 3. and may otherwise: (a) amend, modify, alter or supplement the terms of any of the Guarantied Obligations, including, but not limited to, extending or shortening the time of payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations or changing the interest rate that may accrue on any of the Guarantied Obligations; (b) amend, modify, alter or supplement the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; (c) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with all, or any part, of any collateral securing any of the Guarantied Obligations; (d) release any Loan Party or other Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Guarantied Obligations; (e) exercise, or refrain from exercising, any rights against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person; and (f) apply any sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the Guarantied Obligations in such order as the Guarantied Parties shall elect.

 

Section 5.  Representations and Warranties.  Each Guarantor hereby makes to the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties all of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower with respect to or in any way relating to such Guarantor in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as if the same were set forth herein in full.

 

B-3



 

Section 6.  Covenants.  Each Guarantor will comply with all covenants with which the Borrower is to cause such Guarantor to comply under the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

 

Section 7.  Waiver.  Each Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, hereby waives notice of acceptance hereof or any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, and any other act or thing, or omission or delay to do any other act or thing, which in any manner or to any extent might vary the risk of such Guarantor or which otherwise might operate to discharge such Guarantor from its obligations hereunder.

 

Section 8.  Inability to Accelerate Loan.  If the Guarantied Parties or any of them are prevented under Applicable Law or otherwise from demanding or accelerating payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, the Administrative Agent and/or the other Guarantied Parties shall be entitled to receive from each Guarantor, upon demand therefor, the sums which otherwise would have been due had such demand or acceleration occurred.

 

Section 9.  Reinstatement of Guarantied Obligations.  If claim is ever made on the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party repays all or part of said amount by reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party with any such claimant (including the Borrower or a trustee in bankruptcy for the Borrower), then and in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding on it, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, and such Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party for the amounts so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party.

 

Section 10.  Subrogation.  Upon the making by any Guarantor of any payment hereunder for the account of the Borrower, such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Borrower; provided, however, that such Guarantor shall not enforce any right or receive any payment by way of subrogation or otherwise take any action in respect of any other claim or cause of action such Guarantor may have against the Borrower arising by reason of any payment or performance by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty, unless and until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full.  If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor on account of or in respect of such subrogation rights or other claims or causes of action, such Guarantor shall hold such amount in trust for the benefit of the Guarantied Parties and shall forthwith pay such amount to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or to be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral security for any Guarantied Obligations existing.

 

Section 11. Payments Free and Clear.  All sums payable by each Guarantor hereunder, whether of principal, interest, fees, expenses, premiums or otherwise, shall be paid in full, without set-off or counterclaim or any deduction or withholding whatsoever (including any Taxes), and if such Guarantor is required by Applicable Law or by any Governmental Authority to make any such deduction or withholding such Guarantor shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders such additional amount as will result in the receipt by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the full amount payable hereunder had such deduction or withholding not occurred or been required.

 

B-4



 

Section 12.  Set-off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under any of the other Loan Documents or Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each Guarantor hereby authorizes each Guarantied Party and each Participant, at any time while an Event of Default exists, without any prior notice to such Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Lender, the Issuing Bank or a Participant subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, to set-off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender or such Participant or any affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender or such Participant to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor against and on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured.  Each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, that any Participant may exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other rights with respect to its participation as fully as if such Participant were a direct creditor of such Guarantor in the amount of such participation.

 

Section 13.  Subordination.  Each Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Guarantied Parties that all obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Guarantor of whatever description, including without limitation, all intercompany receivables of such Guarantor from the Borrower (collectively, the “Junior Claims”) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Guarantied Obligations.  If an Event of Default shall exist, then no Guarantor shall accept any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property or securities, by setoff or otherwise) from the Borrower on account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior Claim until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full.

 

Section 14.  Avoidance Provisions.  It is the intent of each Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties that in any Proceeding, such Guarantor’s maximum obligation hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor in such Proceeding as a result of Applicable Law, including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and (b) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.  The Applicable Laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties) shall be determined in any such Proceeding are referred to as the “Avoidance Provisions”.  Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Guarantied Obligations for which such Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, as of the time any of the Guarantied Obligations are deemed to have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties), to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions.  This Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and no Guarantor or any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section as against the Guarantied Parties that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.

Section 15.  Information.  Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Guarantied Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither  the Administrative Agent nor any other Guarantied Party shall have any duty whatsoever to advise any Guarantor of information regarding such circumstances or risks.

 

Section 16.  Governing Law.  THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

 

SECTION 17.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

13



 

THEREOF SATISFACTORY AND IS NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF LANDLORD OR LANDLORD’S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WITH RESPECT THERETO AND TENANT WAIVES ANY CLAIM OR ACTION AGAINST LANDLORD IN RESPECT OF THE CONDITION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY. LANDLORD MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE LEASED PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT, IT BEING AGREED THAT ALL SUCH RISKS ARE TO BE BORNE BY TENANT. To the maximum extent permitted by law, however, Landlord hereby assigns to Tenant all of Landlord’s rights to proceed against any predecessor in interest or insurer for breaches of warranties or representations or for latent defects in the Leased Property. Landlord shall fully cooperate with Tenant in the prosecution of any such claims, in Landlord’s or Tenant’s name, all at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.

If Tenant shall fail to give any such Notice, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the Fixed Term or the first Extended Term as applicable and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Agreement. If Tenant shall give such Notice, the extension of this Agreement shall be automatically effected without the execution of any additional documents; it being understood and agreed, however, that Tenant and Landlord shall execute such documents and agreements as either party shall reasonably require to evidence the same. Notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing sentence, if, subsequent to the giving of such Notice, an Event of Default shall occur, at Landlord’s option, the extension of this Agreement shall cease to take effect and this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the Fixed Term or the Extended Term, as applicable, and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 3

 

RENT

 

3.1          Rent. Tenant shall pay, in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, without offset, abatement, demand or deduction (unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement), Minimum Rent and Additional Rent to Landlord and Additional Charges to the party to whom such Additional Charges are payable, during the Term. All payments to Landlord shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds or by other means acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. Rent for any partial calendar month shall be prorated on a per diem basis.

 

3.1.1       Minimum Rent.

 

(a)               Payments. Minimum Rent shall be paid in equal monthly installments in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar month during the Term.

 

(b)              Adjustments of Minimum Rent Following Disbursements Under Sections 5.1.2(b), 10.2.3 and 11.2. Effective on the date of each disbursement to pay for the cost of any repairs, maintenance, renovations or replacements pursuant to Sections  5.1.2(b), 10.2.3 or 11.2, the annual Minimum Rent shall be increased by a per annum  amount equal to the Disbursement Rate times the amount so disbursed. If any such disbursement is made during any calendar month on a day other than the first Business Day of such calendar month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first Business Day of the immediately following calendar month (in addition to the amount of Minimum Rent payable with respect to such calendar month, as adjusted pursuant to this paragraph (c)) the amount by which Minimum Rent for the preceding calendar month, as adjusted for such disbursement on a per diem basis, exceeded the amount of Minimum Rent paid by Tenant for such preceding calendar month.

 

3.1.2          Additional Rent.

 

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

 

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

 

15



 

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

 

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

 

(d)              Confirmation of Additional Rent. Tenant shall utilize, or cause to be utilized, an accounting system for the Leased Property in accordance with its usual and customary practices and in all material respects in accordance with GAAP, which will accurately record all Gross Revenues and Tenant shall retain, for at least three (3) years after the expiration of each Lease Year, reasonably adequate records conforming to such accounting system showing all Gross Revenues for such Lease Year. Landlord, at its own expense, except as provided hereinbelow, shall have the right, exercisable by Notice to Tenant, by its accountants or representatives, to audit the information set forth in the Officer’s Certificate referred to in subparagraph (c) above and, in connection with such audits, to examine Tenant’s books and records with respect thereto (including supporting data and sales and excise tax returns). Landlord shall begin such audit as soon as reasonably possible following its receipt of the applicable Officer’s Certificate and shall complete such audit as soon as reasonably possible thereafter. All such audits shall be performed at the location where such books and records are customarily kept and in such a manner so as to minimize any interference with Tenant’s business operations. If any such audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Additional Rent and either Tenant agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the amount of the deficiency, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, from the date such payment should have been

 

16



 

made to the date of payment thereof, and if the amount of such deficiency exceeds five percent (5%) of the Additional Rent that should have been paid for any Lease Year, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the aggregate amount of all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any such audit. If any such audit discloses that Tenant paid more Additional Rent for any Lease Year than was due hereunder, and either Landlord agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s option, either grant Tenant a credit or pay to Tenant an amount equal to the amount of such overpayment against Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the time of payment by Tenant until the date such credit is applied or paid, as the case may be; provided, however, that, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the unapplied balance of such credit to Tenant, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment from Landlord. Any dispute concerning the correctness of an audit shall be settled by arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Article 22.

 

Any proprietary information obtained by Landlord with respect to Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be treated as confidential, except that such information may be disclosed or used, subject to appropriate confidentiality safeguards, pursuant to court order or in any litigation between the parties and except further that Landlord may disclose such information to any prospective lender, provided that Landlord shall direct such lender to maintain such information as confidential. The obligations of Tenant and Landlord contained in this Section 3.1.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

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

 

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

 

17



 

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

 

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

 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Tenant shall fund (or cause to be funded) any escrows for Impositions required by the lender under the Existing Financing Documents in connection with its obligations to pay such Impositions under this Section 3.1.3(a) (and any amounts so escrowed shall belong to Tenant).

 

(b)           Utility Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and other utilities used in connection with the Leased Property.

 

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

 

(d)           Other Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all other amounts, liabilities and obligations, including, without limitation, ground rents, if any, and all amounts payable under any equipment leases and all agreements to indemnify Landlord under Sections 4.4.2 and 9.5.

 

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

 

18



 

similar Additional Charges that are attributable to any period after the Term of this Agreement.

 

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

 

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

 

3.3          Net Lease. The Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord so that this Agreement shall yield to Landlord the full amount of the installments or amounts of the Rent throughout the Term, subject to any other provisions of this Agreement which expressly provide otherwise, including those provisions for adjustment or abatement of such Rent.

 

3.4          No Termination, Abatement, Etc. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each of Landlord and Tenant, to the maximum extent permitted by law, shall remain bound by this Agreement in accordance with its terms and shall not take any action without the consent of the other to modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement. In addition, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant shall not seek, or be entitled to, any abatement, deduction, deferment or reduction of the Rent, or set-off against the Rent, nor shall the respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant be otherwise affected by reason of (a) any damage to or destruction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, from whatever cause or any Condemnation, (b) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of, or restriction upon, Tenant’s use of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or the interference with such use by any Person or by reason of eviction by paramount title; (c) any claim which Tenant may have against Landlord by reason of any default (other than a monetary default) or breach of any warranty by Landlord under this Agreement or any other agreement between Landlord and Tenant, or to which Landlord and Tenant are parties; (d) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings affecting Landlord or any assignee or transferee of Landlord; or (e) for any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing (other than a monetary default by Landlord). Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, Tenant hereby waives all rights arising from any occurrence whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by law (a) to modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement or quit or surrender the

 

19



 

Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or (b) which would entitle Tenant to any abatement, reduction, suspension or deferment of the Rent or other sums payable or other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The obligations of Tenant hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements, and the Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant hereunder shall continue to be payable in all events unless the obligations to pay the same shall be terminated pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement.

Thereafter, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith to agree on an alternative use for the Leased Property, appropriate adjustments to the Additional Rent and other related matters; provided, however, in no event shall the Minimum Rent be reduced or abated as a result thereof.

 

4.1.2         Necessary Approvals.

Tenant shall promptly: (a) upon receipt of notice or knowledge, notify Landlord in writing of any material change in the nature or extent of Hazardous Substances at the Leased Property, (b) transmit to Landlord a copy of any report which is required to be filed by Tenant or any Manager with respect to the Leased Property pursuant to SARA Title III or any other Applicable Laws, (c) transmit to Landlord copies of any

Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and each Facility Mortgagee, their trustees, officers, agents, employees and beneficiaries, and any of their respective successors or assigns with respect to this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnitees” and, individually, an “Indemnitee”) for, from and against any and all debts, liens, claims, causes of action, administrative orders or notices, costs, fines, penalties or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee resulting from, either directly or indirectly, the presence in, upon or under the soil or ground water of the Leased Property or any properties surrounding the Leased Property of any Hazardous Substances in violation of any Applicable Laws, except to the extent the same arise from the acts or omissions of Landlord or any other Indemnitee or during any period that Landlord or a Person designated by Landlord (other than Tenant) is in possession of the Leased Property from and after the Commencement Date.

5.1          Maintenance and Repair.

 

5.1.1            Tenant’s General Obligations. Tenant shall keep (or cause to be kept), at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, the Leased Property and all private roadways, sidewalks and curbs appurtenant thereto (and Tenant’s Personal Property) in good order and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted (whether or not the need for such repairs occurs as a result of Tenant’s or any Manager’s use, any prior use, the elements or the age of the Leased Property or Tenant’s Personal Property or any portion thereof), and shall promptly make or cause to be made all necessary and appropriate repairs and replacements to the Leased Property of every kind and nature, whether interior or exterior, structural or nonstructural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen or arising by reason of a condition existing prior to the Commencement Date (concealed or otherwise). All repairs shall be made in a good, workmanlike manner, consistent with industry standards for comparable facilities in like locales, in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations relating to any such work. Tenant shall not take or omit to take (or permit any Person to take or omit to take) any action, the taking or omission of which would materially and adversely impair the value or the usefulness of the Leased Property or any material part thereof for its Permitted Use. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 5.1.1 shall be limited in the event of any casualty or Condemnation as set forth in Article 10 and Article 11 and Tenant’s obligations with respect to Hazardous Substances are as set forth in Section 4.4.

 

5.1.2            Landlord’s Obligations.

 

(a)                Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Landlord shall not, under any circumstances, be required to build or rebuild any improvement on the Leased Property, or to make any repairs, replacements, alterations, restorations or renewals of any nature or description to the Leased Property, whether ordinary or extraordinary, structural or nonstructural, foreseen or unforeseen, or to make any expenditure whatsoever with respect thereto, or to maintain the Leased Property in any way. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the right to make repairs at the Leased Property at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law in effect on the Commencement Date or thereafter enacted. Landlord shall have the right to give, record and post, as appropriate, notices of nonresponsibility under any mechanic’s lien laws now or hereafter existing.

 

(b)                If, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Tenant is required to make any expenditures in connection with any repair, maintenance or renovation with respect to the

Leased Property, Tenant may, at its election, advance such funds or give Landlord Notice thereof, which Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the required repair, renovation or replacement, the estimated cost thereof and such other information with respect thereto as Landlord may reasonably require. Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Tenant shall otherwise comply with the applicable provisions of Article 6, Landlord shall, within ten (10) Business Days after such Notice, subject to and in accordance with the applicable provisions of Article 6, disburse such required funds to Tenant (or, if Tenant shall so elect, directly to the Manager or any other Person performing the required work) and, upon such disbursement, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may elect not to disburse such required funds to Tenant; provided, however, that if Landlord shall elect not to disburse such required funds as aforesaid, Tenant’s obligation to make such required repair, renovation or replacement shall be deemed waived by Landlord, and, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall have no obligation to make such required repair, renovation or replacement.

 

5.1.3       Nonresponsibility of Landlord, Etc. All materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics and laborers and other persons contracting with Tenant with respect to the Leased Property, or any part thereof, are hereby charged with notice that liens on the Leased Property or on Landlord’s interest therein are expressly prohibited and that they must look solely to Tenant to secure payment for any work done or material furnished to Tenant or any Manager or for any other purpose during the term of this Agreement.

 

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialmen for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials for any alteration, addition, improvement or repair to the Leased Property or any part thereof or as giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to the filing of any lien against the Leased Property or any part thereof nor to subject Landlord’s estate in the Leased Property or any part thereof to liability under any mechanic’s lien law of any State in any way, it being expressly understood Landlord’s estate shall not be subject to any such liability.

 

5.2          Tenant’s Personal Property. Tenant shall provide and maintain (or cause to be provided and maintained) throughout the Term all such Tenant’s Personal Property as shall be necessary in order to operate in compliance with applicable material Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements and otherwise in accordance with customary practice in the industry for the Permitted Use. If, from and after the Commencement Date, Tenant acquires an interest in any item of tangible personal property (other than motor vehicles) on, or in connection with, the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, which belongs to anyone other than Tenant, Tenant shall require the agreements permitting such use to provide that Landlord or its designee may assume Tenant’s rights and obligations under such agreement upon Landlord’s purchase of the same in accordance with the provisions of Article 15 and the assumption of management or operation of the Facility by Landlord or its designee.

 

24



 

5.3          Yield Up. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Leased Property to Landlord in substantially the same condition in which the Leased Property was in on the Commencement Date, except as repaired, rebuilt, restored, altered or added to as permitted or required by the provisions of this Agreement, reasonable wear and tear excepted (and casualty damage and Condemnation, in the event that this Agreement is terminated following a casualty or Condemnation in accordance with Article 10 or Article 11 excepted).

 

In addition, upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, use its good faith efforts to transfer (or cause to be transferred) to and cooperate with Landlord or Landlord’s nominee in connection with the processing of all applications for licenses, operating permits and other governmental authorizations and all contracts, including contracts with governmental or quasi-governmental Entities which may be necessary for the use and operation of the Facility as then operated. If requested by Landlord, Tenant shall continue to manage the Facility after the expiration of the Term for up to one hundred eighty (180) days, on such reasonable terms (which shall include an agreement to reimburse Tenant for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, and reasonable administrative costs), as Landlord shall reasonably request.

 

5.4          Management Agreement. Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), enter into, amend or modify the provisions of any Management Agreement with respect to the Leased Property. Any Management Agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.4 shall be subordinate to this Agreement and shall provide, inter alia, that all amounts due from Tenant to Manager thereunder shall be subordinate to all amounts due from Tenant to Landlord (provided that, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Tenant may pay all amounts due to Manager thereunder pursuant to such Management Agreement) and for termination thereof, at Landlord’s option, upon the termination of this Agreement. Tenant shall not take any action, grant any consent or permit any action under any such Management Agreement which might have a material adverse effect on Landlord, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

 

ARTICLE 6

 

IMPROVEMENTS, ETC.

 

6.1          Improvements to the Leased Property. Tenant shall not make, construct or install (or permit to be made, constructed or installed) any Capital Additions without, in each instance, obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned provided that (a) construction or installation of the same would not adversely affect or violate any material Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement applicable to the Leased Property and (b) Landlord shall have received an Officer’s Certificate certifying as to the satisfaction of the conditions set out in clause (a) above; provided, however, that no such consent shall be required in the event immediate action is required to prevent imminent harm to person or property. No Capital Addition shall be made which would tie in or connect any Leased Improvements with any other improvements on property adjacent to the Leased Property (and not part of the Land) including, without limitation, tie-ins of buildings or other structures or utilities. Except as permitted herein, Tenant shall not finance the cost of any

 

25



 

construction of such improvement by the granting of a lien on or security interest in the Leased Property or such improvement, or Tenant’s interest therein, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld by Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion. Any such improvements shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, remain or pass to and become the property of Landlord, free and clear of all encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances.

 

6.2          Salvage. All materials which are scrapped or removed in connection with the making of either Capital Additions or non-Capital Additions or repairs required by Article 5 shall be or become the property of the party that paid for such work.

 

ARTICLE 7

 

LIENS

 

Subject to Article 8, Tenant shall use its best efforts not, directly or indirectly, to create or allow to remain and shall promptly discharge (or cause to be discharged), at its expense, any lien, encumbrance, attachment, title retention agreement or claim upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or Tenant’s leasehold interest therein or any attachment, levy, claim or encumbrance in respect of the Rent, other than (a) Permitted Encumbrances, (b) restrictions, liens and other encumbrances which are consented to in writing by Landlord, (c) liens for those taxes of Landlord which Tenant is not required to pay hereunder, (d) subleases permitted by Article 16, (e) liens for Impositions or for sums resulting from noncompliance with Legal Requirements so long as (i) the same are not yet due and payable, or (ii) are being contested in accordance with Article 8, (f) liens of mechanics, laborers, materialmen, suppliers or vendors incurred in the ordinary course of business that are not yet due and payable or are for sums that are being contested in accordance with Article 8, (g) any Facility Mortgages or other liens which are the responsibility of Landlord pursuant to the provisions of Article 20 and (h) Landlord Liens and any other voluntary liens created by Landlord.

 

ARTICLE 8

 

PERMITTED CONTESTS

 

Tenant shall have the right to contest the amount or validity of any Imposition, Legal Requirement, Insurance Requirement, Environmental Obligation, lien, attachment, levy, encumbrance, charge or claim (collectively, “Claims”) as to the Leased Property, by appropriate legal proceedings, conducted in good faith and with due diligence, provided that (a) the foregoing shall in no way be construed as relieving, modifying or extending Tenant’s obligation to pay (or cause to be paid) any Claims as finally determined, (b) such contest shall not cause Landlord or Tenant to be in default under any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Leased Property, or any portion thereof (Landlord agreeing that any such mortgage or deed of trust shall permit Tenant to exercise the rights granted pursuant to this Article 8) or any interest therein or result in or reasonably be expected to result in a lien attaching to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, (c) no part of the Leased Property nor any Rent therefrom shall be in any immediate danger of sale, forfeiture, attachment or loss, and (d) Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any cost, claim, damage, penalty or reasonable expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord in connection therewith or as a result

 

26



 

thereof. Landlord agrees to join in any such proceedings if required legally to prosecute such contest, provided that Landlord shall not thereby be subjected to any liability therefor (including, without limitation, for the payment of any costs or expenses in connection therewith) unless Tenant agrees by agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, to assume and indemnify Landlord with respect to the same. Tenant shall be entitled to any refund of any Claims and such charges and penalties or interest thereon which have been paid by Tenant or paid by Landlord to the extent that Landlord has been fully reimbursed by Tenant. If Tenant shall fail (x) to pay or cause to be paid any Claims when finally determined, (y) to provide reasonable security therefor or (z) to prosecute or cause to be prosecuted any such contest diligently and in good faith, Landlord may, upon reasonable notice to Tenant (which notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine that the same is not practicable), pay such charges, together with interest and penalties due with respect thereto, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor, upon demand, as Additional Charges.

 

ARTICLE 9

 

INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION

 

9.1          General Insurance Requirements. Tenant shall, at all times during the Term and at any other time Tenant shall be in possession of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, keep (or cause to be kept) the Leased Property and all property located therein or thereon, insured against the risks and in such amounts as is against such risks and in such amounts as Landlord shall reasonably require and may be commercially reasonable. Tenant shall prepare a proposal setting forth the insurance Tenant proposes to be maintained with respect to the Leased Property during the ensuing Fiscal Year and shall submit such proposal to Landlord on or before December 1 of the preceding Lease Year for Landlord’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In the event that Landlord shall fail to respond within thirty (30) days after receipt of such proposal, such proposal shall be deemed approved.

 

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

 

9.3          Form Satisfactory, Etc. All insurance policies and endorsements required pursuant to this Article 9 shall be fully paid for, nonassessable, and issued by reputable insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a general policy holder’s rating of no less than A in Best’s latest rating guide. All property, business interruption, liability and flood insurance policies shall include no deductible in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000). At all times, all property, business interruption, liability and flood insurance

 

27



 

policies, with the exception of worker’s compensation insurance coverage, shall name Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee as additional insureds, as their interests may appear. All loss adjustments shall be payable as provided in Article 10, except that losses under liability and worker’s compensation insurance policies shall be payable directly to the party entitled thereto. Tenant shall cause all insurance premiums to be paid prior to the effective date of any policy, if required by such policy, or pursuant to an installment payment plan if permissible under such policy. Not more than twenty five (25) days nor less than five (5) days prior to the effective date of the policies or renewal policies (which, for renewal policies, shall be prior to the expiration of the existing policy), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of enforceable binders for such insurance coverage. Tenant shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Landlord certificates evidencing such insurance coverage within five (5) days after the effective date of such policies, and thereafter Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the policies or renewal policies promptly upon receipt by Tenant. All such policies shall provide Landlord (and any Facility Mortgagee if required by the same) thirty (30) days prior written notice of any material change or cancellation of such policy. In the event Tenant shall fail to effect (or cause to be effected) such insurance as herein required, to pay (or cause to be paid) the premiums therefor or to deliver (or cause to be delivered) such policies or certificates to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee at the times required, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon Notice to Tenant, to acquire such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Charges, together with interest accrued thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date such payment is made until (but excluding) the date repaid.

 

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

 

9.5          Indemnification of Landlord. Notwithstanding the existence of any insurance provided for herein and without regard to the policy limits of any such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of the following, except to the extent caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct: (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about the Leased Property or portion thereof or adjoining sidewalks or rights of way, (b) any past, present or future use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance or repair by Tenant, any Manager or anyone claiming under any of them or Tenant’s Personal Property or any litigation, proceeding or claim by governmental entities or other third parties to which Landlord is made a party or participant relating to the Leased Property or portion thereof or Tenant’s Personal Property or such use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance, or repair thereof including, failure to perform obligations (other than Condemnation proceedings) to which Landlord is made a party,

 

28



 

(c) any Impositions that are the obligations of Tenant to pay pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, and (d) any failure on the part of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Agreement. Tenant, at its expense, shall contest, resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord (and shall not be responsible for any duplicative attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord) or may compromise or otherwise dispose of the same, with Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The obligations of Tenant under this Section 9.5 are in addition to the obligations set forth in Section 4.4 and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE 10

 

CASUALTY

 

10.1        Insurance Proceeds. Except as provided in the last clause of this sentence, all proceeds payable by reason of any loss or damage to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and insured under any policy of insurance required by Article 9 (other than the proceeds of any business interruption insurance) shall be paid directly to Landlord (subject to the provisions of Section 10.2) and all loss adjustments with respect to losses payable to Landlord shall require the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all such proceeds less than or equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) shall be paid directly to Tenant and such losses may be adjusted without Landlord’s consent. If Tenant is required to reconstruct or repair the Leased Property as provided herein, such proceeds shall be paid out by Landlord from time to time for the reasonable costs of the reconstruction or repair necessitated by such damage or destruction, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2.4. Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any excess proceeds of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be paid to Tenant. In the event that the provisions of Section 10.2.1 are applicable, the insurance proceeds shall be retained by the party entitled thereto pursuant to Section 10.2.1.

 

10.2        Damage or Destruction.

 

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

 

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

 

29



 

10.2.3             Insufficient Insurance Proceeds. If the cost of the repair or restoration of the Facility exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord and Tenant pursuant to Section 9.1, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that, if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement). In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant, given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided, however, in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(b). In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property by Notice to the other, whereupon, this Agreement shall so terminate and insurance proceeds shall be distributed as provided in Section 10.2.1. It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall be strictly liable and solely responsible for the amount of any deductible and shall, upon any insurable loss, pay over the amount of such deductible to Landlord at the time and in the manner herein provided for payment of the applicable proceeds to Landlord.

 

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

 

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

 

30



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

ARTICLE 11

 

CONDEMNATION

 

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

 

31



 

11.2        Partial Condemnation. In the event of a Condemnation of less than the whole of the Leased Property such that the Leased Property is still suitable for its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, to the extent of the Award and any additional amounts disbursed by Landlord as hereinafter provided, commence (or cause to be commenced) promptly and continue diligently to restore (or cause to be restored) the untaken portion of the Leased Improvements so that such Leased Improvements shall constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as such Leased Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all Legal Requirements, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.2. If the cost of the repair or restoration of the Leased Property exceeds the amount of the Award, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement). In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s Notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided, however, in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(b). In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement and the entire Award shall be allocated as set forth in Section 11.5.

 

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

 

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

 

32



 

permitted by law, no local or State statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.

 

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

 

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

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

 

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

 

(a)                should Tenant fail to make any payment of the Rent or any other sum payable hereunder when due, which failure shall continue for at least five (5) Business Days after Notice from Landlord to Tenant; or

 

(b)                should Tenant fail to maintain the insurance coverages required under Article 9; or

 

(c)                should Tenant default in the due observance or performance of any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained herein to be performed or observed by it (other than as specified in clauses (a) and (b) above) and should such default continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if such default is susceptible of cure but such cure cannot be accomplished with due diligence within such period of time and if, in addition, Tenant commences to cure or cause to be cured such default within thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord and thereafter prosecutes the curing of such default with all due diligence, such

 

33



 

period of time shall be extended to such period of time (not to exceed an additional ninety (90) days in the aggregate) as may be necessary to cure such default with all due diligence; or

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(g)                should any petition be filed by or against Tenant or any Guarantor under the Federal bankruptcy laws, or should any other proceeding be instituted by or against Tenant or any Guarantor seeking to adjudicate Tenant or any Guarantor a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of Tenant’s debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for Tenant or any Guarantor or for any substantial part of the property of Tenant or any Guarantor and such proceeding is not dismissed within one hundred eighty (180) days after institution thereof; or

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(k)                should a final unappealable determination be made by the applicable Government Agency that Tenant shall have failed to comply with applicable Medicare

 

34



 

and/or Medicaid regulations in the operation of the Facility, as a result of which failure Tenant is declared ineligible to receive reimbursements under the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs for the Facility;

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

35



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

36



 

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

 

ARTICLE 13

 

HOLDING OVER

 

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

 

ARTICLE 14

 

LANDLORD DEFAULT

 

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

 

If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant,

 

37



 

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

 

ARTICLE 15

 

PURCHASE RIGHTS

 

Landlord shall have the option to purchase Tenant’s Personal Property, at the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, for an amount equal to the then fair market value thereof (current replacement cost as determined by agreement of the parties or, in the absence of such agreement, appraisal), subject to, and with appropriate price adjustments for, all equipment leases, conditional sale contracts, UCC-1 financing statements and other encumbrances to which Tenant’s Personal Property is subject. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, Tenant shall use its reasonable efforts to transfer and assign, or cause to be transferred and assigned, to Landlord or its designee, or assist Landlord or its designee in obtaining, any contracts, licenses, and certificates required for the then operation of the Leased Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in this Article 15 shall diminish, impair or otherwise modify Landlord’s rights under the Security Agreement and that any amounts paid by Landlord in order to purchase Tenant’s Personal Property in accordance with this Article 15 shall be applied first to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may reasonably determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State and any balance shall be paid to Tenant.

 

ARTICLE 16

 

SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT

 

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

 

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

 

38



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

16.2        Required Sublease Provisions. Any sublease of all or any portion of the Leased Property shall provide (a) that it is subject and subordinate to this Agreement and to the matters to which this Agreement is or shall be subject or subordinate; (b) that in the event of termination of this Agreement or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Agreement, Landlord may, at its option, terminate such sublease or take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor the Facility Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Agreement, if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease not consented to in writing by Landlord or by any previous prepayment of more

 

39



 

than one (1) month’s rent, (iv) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, (v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for under the sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment, (vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of such subtenant unless actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any portion of the Leased Property; and (c) in the event that such subtenant receives a written Notice from Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such party may direct. All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Facility Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn. An original counterpart of each such sublease and assignment and assumption, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and (x) in the case of an assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep and perform all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the performance thereof and (y) in the case of either an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder.

 

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

 

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

 

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

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Successor Landlord shall be liable (a) to pay to Tenant any amounts owed under Section 5.1.2(b), (b) to pay to Tenant any portions of insurance proceeds or Awards received by Landlord or the Successor Landlord required to be paid to Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (c) to recognize any reduction in Minimum Rent attributable to the provisions of Section 4.1.1(b).

ARBITRATION

 

22.1        Disputes. Any disputes, claims or controversies between the parties (a) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or (b) 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 Article 22, 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 Article 22. 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 22, the term “party” shall include any direct or indirect parent of a party.

 

22.2        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 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 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

 

47



 

a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.

 

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

 

22.4        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.

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.

 

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

 

22.7        Final Judgment. 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.

 

22.8        Payment. Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.

MISCELLANEOUS

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

49



 

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

 

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

 

23.8        Quiet Enjoyment. Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Leased Property for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Encumbrance permitted under Article 20 or otherwise permitted to be created by Landlord hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, provided the same do not materially interfere with Tenant’s ability to operate the Facility and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant any right to cancel or terminate this Agreement or abate, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other sum payable under this Agreement, or to fail to perform any other obligation of Tenant hereunder.

 

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

2



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

3.12                      No Change in Control. Guarantor shall not permit the occurrence of any direct or indirect Change in Control of Tenant or Guarantor.

 

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

 

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

3



 

Guarantor of any such set-off made by Landlord and the application made by Landlord of the proceeds thereof.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

4



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

12.             Notices.

 

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

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

 

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

 

6



 

required by any such instrument is made or required to be made; or (c) where any breach of any provision of any such instrument occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (d) where any action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (e) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (f) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than The Commonwealth of Massachusetts; or (g) any combination of the foregoing.

 

15.               Disputes.

 

(a)                                  Any disputes, claims or controversies between the parties (i) arising out of or relating to this Guaranty, 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, 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 Guaranty, 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. 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 Section 15, the term “party” shall include any direct or indirect parent of a 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 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

 

7



 

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

 

(g)                                 Final Judgment. 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 Guaranty 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)                                 Payment. 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.

 

8



 

(i)                                     Beneficiaries. This Section 15 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.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

LEASED PROPERTY AND TERM

 

2.1                               Leased Property. Upon and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant leases from Landlord all of Landlord’s right, title and interest in and to all of the following (each of items (a) through (g) below collectively, the “Leased Property”):

 

(a)                                  those certain tracts, pieces and parcels of land, as more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Land”);

 

(b)                                 all buildings, structures and other improvements of every kind including, but not limited to, alleyways and connecting tunnels, sidewalks, utility pipes, conduits and lines (on-site and off-site), parking areas and roadways appurtenant to such buildings and structures presently situated upon the Land (collectively, the “Leased Improvements”);

 

(c)                                  all easements, rights and appurtenances relating to the Land and the Leased Improvements;

 

(d)                                 all equipment, machinery, fixtures, and other items of property, now or hereafter permanently affixed to or incorporated into the Leased Improvements, including, without limitation, all furnaces, boilers, heaters, electrical equipment, heating, plumbing, lighting, ventilating, refrigerating, incineration, air and water pollution control, waste disposal, air-cooling and air-conditioning systems and apparatus, sprinkler systems and fire and theft protection equipment, all of which, to the maximum extent permitted by law, are hereby deemed by the parties hereto to constitute real estate, together with all replacements, modifications, alterations and additions thereto, but specifically excluding all items included within the category of Tenant’s Personal Property (collectively, the “Fixtures”);

 

(e)                                  all machinery, equipment, furniture, furnishings, moveable walls or partitions, computers or trade fixtures or other personal property of any kind or description used or useful in Tenant’s business on or in the Leased Improvements, and located on or in the Leased Improvements, and all modifications, replacements, alterations and additions to such personal property, except items, if any, included within the category of Fixtures, but specifically excluding all items included within the category of Tenant’s Personal Property (collectively, the “Leased Personal Property”);

 

(f)                                    all of the Leased Intangible Property; and

 

(g)                                 any and all leases of space in the Leased Improvements.

 

2.2                               Condition of Leased Property. Tenant acknowledges receipt and delivery of possession of the Leased Property and Tenant accepts the Leased Property in its “as is” condition, subject to the rights of parties in possession, the existing state of title, including all covenants, conditions, restrictions, reservations, mineral leases, easements and other matters of

 

13



 

record or that are visible or apparent on the Leased Property, all applicable Legal Requirements, the lien of any financing instruments, mortgages and deeds of trust existing prior to the Commencement Date or permitted by the terms of this Agreement, and such other matters which would be disclosed by an inspection of the Leased Property and the record title thereto or by an accurate survey thereof. TENANT REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS INSPECTED THE LEASED PROPERTY AND ALL OF THE FOREGOING AND HAS FOUND THE CONDITION THEREOF SATISFACTORY AND IS NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF LANDLORD OR LANDLORD’S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WITH RESPECT THERETO AND TENANT WAIVES ANY CLAIM OR ACTION AGAINST LANDLORD IN RESPECT OF THE CONDITION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY. LANDLORD MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE LEASED PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT, IT BEING AGREED THAT ALL SUCH RISKS ARE TO BE BORNE BY TENANT. To the maximum extent permitted by law, however, Landlord hereby assigns to Tenant all of Landlord’s rights to proceed against any predecessor in interest or insurer for breaches of warranties or representations or for latent defects in the Leased Property. Landlord shall fully cooperate with Tenant in the prosecution of any such claims, in Landlord’s or Tenant’s name, all at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord from and against any loss, cost, damage or liability (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection with such cooperation.

 

2.3                               Fixed Term. The initial term of this Agreement (the “Fixed Term”) shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall expire on April 30, 2017.

 

2.4                               Extended Terms. Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term for two (2) renewal terms of fifteen (15) years each (each an “Extended Term”).

 

If and to the extent Tenant shall exercise the options, the first Extended Term shall commence on May 1, 2017 and expire on April 30, 2032 and the second Extended Term shall commence on May 1, 2032 and expire on April 30, 2047. All of the terms, covenants and provisions of this Agreement shall apply to each Extended Term, except that Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term beyond April 30, 2047. If Tenant shall elect to exercise the option to extend the Term for the first Extended Term, it shall do so by giving Landlord Notice thereof not later than April 30, 2015, and if Tenant shall elect to exercise its option to extend the Term for the second Extended Term after having elected to extend the Term for the first Extended Term, it shall do so by giving Landlord Notice not later than April 30, 2030, it being understood and agreed that time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of any such Notice. If Tenant shall fail to give any such Notice, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the Fixed Term or the first Extended Term as applicable and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Agreement. If Tenant shall give such Notice, the extension of this Agreement shall be automatically effected without the execution of any additional documents; it being understood and agreed, however, that Tenant and Landlord shall execute such documents and agreements as either party shall reasonably require to evidence the same. Notwithstanding

 

14



 

the provisions of the foregoing sentence, if, subsequent to the giving of such Notice, an Event of Default shall occur, at Landlord’s option, the extension of this Agreement shall cease to take effect and this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the Fixed Term or the Extended Term, as applicable, and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Agreement.

 

2.5                               Limitations on Term. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 2.3 or Section 2.4 to the contrary, the Term of this Agreement shall not extend beyond the term of any ground lease (including renewals and extensions thereof) pursuant to which Landlord leases the Leased Property (if any).

 

ARTICLE 3

RENT

 

3.1                               Rent. Tenant shall pay, in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, without offset, abatement, demand or deduction (unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement), Minimum Rent and Additional Rent to Landlord and Additional Charges to the party to whom such Additional Charges are payable, during the Term. All payments to Landlord shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds or by other means acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. Rent for any partial calendar month shall be prorated on a per diem basis.

 

3.1.1                     Minimum Rent.

 

(a)                                       Payments. Minimum Rent shall be paid in equal monthly installments in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar month during the Term.

 

(b)                                      Adjustments of Minimum Rent Following Disbursements Under Sections 5.1.2(b), 10.2.3 and 11.2. Effective on the date of each disbursement to pay for the cost of any repairs, maintenance, renovations or replacements pursuant to Sections 5.1.2(b), 10.2.3 or 11.2, the annual Minimum Rent shall be increased by a per annum amount equal to the Disbursement Rate times the amount so disbursed. If any such disbursement is made during any calendar month on a day other than the first Business Day of such calendar month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first Business Day of the immediately following calendar month (in addition to the amount of Minimum Rent payable with respect to such calendar month, as adjusted pursuant to this paragraph (c)) the amount by which Minimum Rent for the preceding calendar month, as adjusted for such disbursement on a per diem basis, exceeded the amount of Minimum Rent paid by Tenant for such preceding calendar month.

 

3.1.2                     Additional Rent.

 

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

 

15



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(d)                                      Confirmation of Additional Rent. Tenant shall utilize, or cause to be utilized, an accounting system for the Leased Property in accordance with its usual and customary practices and in all material respects in accordance with GAAP, which will accurately record all Gross Revenues and Tenant shall retain, for at least three (3) years after the expiration of each Lease Year, reasonably adequate records conforming to such accounting system showing all Gross Revenues for such Lease Year. Landlord, at its own expense, except as provided hereinbelow, shall have the right, exercisable by Notice to Tenant, by its accountants or representatives, to audit the information set forth in the Officer’s Certificate referred to in subparagraph (c) above and, in connection with such audits, to examine Tenant’s books and records with respect thereto (including supporting

 

16



 

data and sales and excise tax returns). Landlord shall begin such audit as soon as reasonably possible following its receipt of the applicable Officer’s Certificate and shall complete such audit as soon as reasonably possible thereafter. All such audits shall be performed at the location where such books and records are customarily kept and in such a manner so as to minimize any interference with Tenant’s business operations. If any such audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Additional Rent and either Tenant agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the amount of the deficiency, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, from the date such payment should have been made to the date of payment thereof, and if the amount of such deficiency exceeds five percent (5%) of the Additional Rent that should have been paid for any Lease Year, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the aggregate amount of all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any such audit. If any such audit discloses that Tenant paid more Additional Rent for any Lease Year than was due hereunder, and either Landlord agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s option, either grant Tenant a credit or pay to Tenant an amount equal to the amount of such overpayment against Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the time of payment by Tenant until the date such credit is applied or paid, as the case may be; provided, however, that, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the unapplied balance of such credit to Tenant, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment from Landlord. Any dispute concerning the correctness of an audit shall be settled by arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Article 22.

 

Any proprietary information obtained by Landlord with respect to Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be treated as confidential, except that such information may be disclosed or used, subject to appropriate confidentiality safeguards, pursuant to court order or in any litigation between the parties and except further that Landlord may disclose such information to any prospective lender, provided that Landlord shall direct such lender to maintain such information as confidential. The obligations of Tenant and Landlord contained in this Section 3.1.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

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

 

(a)             Impositions. Subject to Article 8 relating to permitted contests, Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Impositions before any fine, penalty, interest or cost (other than any opportunity cost as a result of a failure to take advantage of any discount for early payment) may be added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing authorities where feasible, and shall promptly, upon request, furnish to Landlord copies of official receipts or other reasonably satisfactory proof evidencing

 

17



 

such payments. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and, in such event, shall pay, or cause to pay, such installments during the Term as the same become due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added thereto. Landlord, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws, prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all tax returns and pay all taxes due in respect of Landlord’s net income, gross receipts, sales and use, single business, transaction privilege, rent, ad valorem, franchise taxes and taxes on its capital stock or other equity interests, and Tenant, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws and regulations, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by Government Agencies. Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by or on behalf of Tenant, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports. In the event Government Agencies classify any property covered by this Agreement as personal property, Tenant shall file, or cause to be filed, all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may legally so file. Each party shall, to the extent it possesses the same, provide the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any property so classified as personal property. Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns for property covered by this Agreement, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Tenant to file a protest. All Impositions assessed against such personal property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty, subject to the provisions of Article 8.

 

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

 

(b)           Utility Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and other utilities used in connection with the Leased Property.

 

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

 

(d)           Other Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all other amounts, liabilities and obligations, including, without limitation, ground rents, if any, and all amounts payable under any equipment leases and all agreements to indemnify Landlord under Sections 4.4.2 and 9.5.

 

18



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

3.3          Net Lease. The Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord so that this Agreement shall yield to Landlord the full amount of the installments or amounts of the Rent throughout the Term, subject to any other provisions of this Agreement which expressly provide otherwise, including those provisions for adjustment or abatement of such Rent.

 

3.4          No Termination, Abatement, Etc. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each of Landlord and Tenant, to the maximum extent permitted by law, shall remain bound by this Agreement in accordance with its terms and shall not take any action without the consent of the other to modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement. In addition, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant shall not seek, or be entitled to, any abatement, deduction, deferment or reduction of the Rent, or set-off against the Rent, nor shall the respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant be otherwise affected by reason of (a) any damage to or destruction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, from whatever cause or any Condemnation, (b) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of, or restriction upon, Tenant’s use of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or the interference with such use by any Person or by reason of eviction by paramount title; (c) any claim which Tenant may have against Landlord by reason of any default (other than a monetary default) or breach of any warranty by Landlord under this Agreement or any other agreement between Landlord and

 

19



 

Tenant, or to which Landlord and Tenant are parties; (d) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings affecting Landlord or any assignee or transferee of Landlord; or (e) for any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing (other than a monetary default by Landlord). Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, Tenant hereby waives all rights arising from any occurrence whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by law (a) to modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement or quit or surrender the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or (b) which would entitle Tenant to any abatement, reduction, suspension or deferment of the Rent or other sums payable or other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The obligations of Tenant hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements, and the Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant hereunder shall continue to be payable in all events unless the obligations to pay the same shall be terminated pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement.

(a)           Tenant shall, at all times during the Term, and at any other time that Tenant shall be in possession of the Leased Property, continuously use and operate, or cause to be used and operated, the Leased Property as an independent living facility as currently operated, and any uses incidental thereto. Tenant shall not use (and shall not permit any Person to use) the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, for any other use without the prior written consent of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

Tenant shall keep (or cause to be kept), at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, the Leased Property and all private roadways, sidewalks and curbs appurtenant thereto (and Tenant’s Personal Property) in good order and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted (whether or not the need for such repairs occurs as a result of Tenant’s or any Manager’s use, any prior use, the elements or the age of the Leased Property or Tenant’s Personal Property or any portion thereof), and shall promptly make or cause to be made all necessary and appropriate repairs and replacements to the Leased Property of every kind and nature, whether interior or exterior, structural or nonstructural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen or arising by reason of a condition existing prior to the Commencement Date (concealed or otherwise). All repairs shall be made in a good, workmanlike manner, consistent with industry standards for comparable facilities in like locales, in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations relating to any such work. Tenant shall not take or omit to take (or permit any Person to take or omit to take) any action, the taking or omission of which would materially and adversely impair the value or the usefulness of the Leased Property or any material part thereof for its Permitted Use. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 5.1.1 shall be limited in the event of any casualty or Condemnation as set forth in Article 10 and Article 11 and Tenant’s obligations with respect to Hazardous Substances are as set forth in Section 4.4.

 

5.1.2            Landlord’s Obligations.

 

(a)                Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Landlord shall not, under any circumstances, be required to build or rebuild any improvement on the Leased Property, or to make any repairs, replacements, alterations, restorations or renewals of any nature or description to the Leased Property, whether ordinary or

 

23



 

extraordinary, structural or nonstructural, foreseen or unforeseen, or to make any expenditure whatsoever with respect thereto, or to maintain the Leased Property in any way. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the right to make repairs at the Leased Property at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law in effect on the Commencement Date or thereafter enacted. Landlord shall have the right to give, record and post, as appropriate, notices of nonresponsibility under any mechanic’s lien laws now or hereafter existing.

 

(b)                If, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Tenant is required to make any expenditures in connection with any repair, maintenance or renovation with respect to the Leased Property, Tenant may, at its election, advance such funds or give Landlord Notice thereof, which Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the required repair, renovation or replacement, the estimated cost thereof and such other information with respect thereto as Landlord may reasonably require. Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Tenant shall otherwise comply with the applicable provisions of Article 6, Landlord shall, within ten (10) Business Days after such Notice, subject to and in accordance with the applicable provisions of Article 6, disburse such required funds to Tenant (or, if Tenant shall so elect, directly to the Manager or any other, Person performing the required work) and, upon such disbursement, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may elect not to disburse such required funds to Tenant; provided, however, that if Landlord shall elect not to disburse such required funds as aforesaid, Tenant’s obligation to make such required repair, renovation or replacement shall be deemed waived by Landlord, and, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall have no obligation to make such required repair, renovation or replacement.

 

5.1.3            Nonresponsibility of Landlord, Etc. All materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics and laborers and other persons contracting with Tenant with respect to the Leased Property, or any part thereof, are hereby charged with notice that liens on the Leased Property or on Landlord’s interest therein are expressly prohibited and that they must look solely to Tenant to secure payment for any work done or material furnished to Tenant or any Manager or for any other purpose during the term of this Agreement.

 

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialmen for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials for any alteration, addition, improvement or repair to the Leased Property or any part thereof or as giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to the filing of any lien against the Leased Property or any part thereof nor to subject Landlord’s estate in the Leased Property or any part thereof to liability under any mechanic’s lien law of any State in any way, it being expressly understood Landlord’s estate shall not be subject to any such liability.

 

5.2          Tenant’s Personal Property. Tenant shall provide and maintain (or cause to be provided and maintained) throughout the Term all such Tenant’s Personal Property as shall be

 

24



 

necessary in order to operate in compliance with applicable material Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements and otherwise in accordance with customary practice in the industry for the Permitted Use. If, from and after the Commencement Date, Tenant acquires an interest in any item of tangible personal property (other than motor vehicles) on, or in connection with, the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, which belongs to anyone other than Tenant, Tenant shall require the agreements permitting such use to provide that Landlord or its designee may assume Tenant’s rights and obligations under such agreement upon Landlord’s purchase of the same in accordance with the provisions of Article 15 and the assumption of management or operation of the Facility by Landlord or its designee.

 

5.3          Yield Up. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Leased Property to Landlord in substantially the same condition in which the Leased Property was in on the Commencement Date, except as repaired, rebuilt, restored, altered or added to as permitted or required by the provisions of this Agreement, reasonable wear and tear excepted (and casualty damage and Condemnation, in the event that this Agreement is terminated following a casualty or Condemnation in accordance with Article 10 or Article 11 excepted).

 

In addition, upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, use its good faith efforts to transfer (or cause to be transferred) to and cooperate with Landlord or Landlord’s nominee in connection with the processing of all applications for licenses, operating permits and other governmental authorizations and all contracts, including contracts with governmental or quasi-governmental Entities which may be necessary for the use and operation of the Facility as then operated. If requested by Landlord, Tenant shall continue to manage the Facility after the expiration of the Term for up to one hundred eighty (180) days, on such reasonable terms (which shall include an agreement to reimburse Tenant for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, and reasonable administrative costs), as Landlord shall reasonably request.

 

5.4          Management Agreement. Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), enter into, amend or modify the provisions of any Management Agreement with respect to the Leased Property. Any Management Agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.4 shall be subordinate to this Agreement and shall provide, inter alia, that all amounts due from Tenant to Manager thereunder shall be subordinate to all amounts due from Tenant to Landlord (provided that, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Tenant may pay all amounts due to Manager thereunder pursuant to such Management Agreement) and for termination thereof, at Landlord’s option, upon the termination of this Agreement. Tenant shall not take any action, grant any consent or permit any action under any such Management Agreement which might have a material adverse effect on Landlord, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

IMPROVEMENTS, ETC.

 

6.1          Improvements to the Leased Property. Tenant shall not make, construct or install (or permit to be made, constructed or installed) any Capital Additions without, in each instance, obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned provided that (a) construction or installation of the same would not adversely affect or violate any material Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement applicable to the Leased Property and (b) Landlord shall have received an Officer’s Certificate certifying as to the satisfaction of the conditions set out in clause (a) above; provided, however, that no such consent shall be required in the event immediate action is required to prevent imminent harm to person or property. No Capital Addition shall be made which would tie in or connect any Leased Improvements with any other improvements on property adjacent to the Leased Property (and not part of the Land) including, without limitation, tie-ins of buildings or other structures or utilities. Except as permitted herein, Tenant shall not finance the cost of any construction of such improvement by the granting of a lien on or security interest in the Leased Property or such improvement, or Tenant’s interest therein, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld by Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion. Any such improvements shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, remain or pass to and become the property of Landlord, free and clear of all encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances.

 

6.2          Salvage. All materials which are scrapped or removed in connection with the making of either Capital Additions or non-Capital Additions or repairs required by Article 5 shall be or become the property of the party that paid for such work.

 

ARTICLE 7

Subject to Article 8, Tenant shall use its best efforts not, directly or indirectly, to create or allow to remain and shall promptly discharge (or cause to be discharged), at its expense, any lien, encumbrance, attachment, title retention agreement or claim upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or Tenant’s leasehold interest therein or any attachment, levy, claim or encumbrance in respect of the Rent, other than (a) Permitted Encumbrances, (b) restrictions, liens and other encumbrances which are consented to in writing by Landlord, (c) liens for those taxes of Landlord which Tenant is not required to pay hereunder, (d) subleases permitted by Article 16, (e) liens for Impositions or for sums resulting from noncompliance with Legal Requirements so long as (i) the same are not yet due and payable, or (ii) are being contested in accordance with Article 8, (f) liens of mechanics, laborers, materialmen, suppliers or vendors incurred in the ordinary course of business that are not yet due and payable or are for sums that are being contested in accordance with Article 8, (g) any Facility Mortgages or other liens which are the responsibility of Landlord pursuant to the provisions of Article 20 and (h) Landlord Liens and any other voluntary liens created by Landlord.

Tenant shall have the right to contest the amount or validity of any Imposition, Legal Requirement, Insurance Requirement, Environmental Obligation, lien, attachment, levy, encumbrance, charge or claim (collectively, “Claims”) as to the Leased Property, by appropriate legal proceedings, conducted in good faith and with due diligence, provided that (a) the foregoing shall in no way be construed as relieving, modifying or extending Tenant’s obligation to pay (or cause to be paid) any Claims as finally determined, (b) such contest shall not cause Landlord or Tenant to be in default under any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Leased Property, or any portion thereof (Landlord agreeing that any such mortgage or deed of trust shall permit Tenant to exercise the rights granted pursuant to this Article 8) or any interest therein or result in or reasonably be expected to result in a lien attaching to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, (c) no part of the Leased Property nor any Rent therefrom shall be in any immediate danger of sale, forfeiture, attachment or loss, and (d) Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any cost, claim, damage, penalty or reasonable expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord in connection therewith or as a result thereof. Landlord agrees to join in any such proceedings if required legally to prosecute such contest, provided that Landlord shall not thereby be subjected to any liability therefor (including, without limitation, for the payment of any costs or expenses in connection therewith) unless Tenant agrees by agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, to assume and indemnify Landlord with respect to the same. Tenant shall be entitled to any refund of any Claims and such charges and penalties or interest thereon which have been paid by Tenant or paid by Landlord to the extent that Landlord has been fully reimbursed by Tenant. If Tenant shall fail (x) to pay or cause to be paid any Claims when finally determined, (y) to provide reasonable security therefor or (z) to prosecute or cause to be prosecuted any such contest diligently and in good faith, Landlord may, upon reasonable notice to Tenant (which notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine that the same is not practicable), pay such charges, together with interest and penalties due with respect thereto, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor, upon demand, as Additional Charges.

 

ARTICLE 9

 

INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION

 

9.1          General Insurance Requirements. Tenant shall, at all times during the Term and at any other time Tenant shall be in possession of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, keep (or cause to be kept) the Leased Property and all property located therein or thereon, insured against the risks and in such amounts as is against such risks and in such amounts as Landlord shall reasonably require and may be commercially reasonable. Tenant shall prepare a proposal setting forth the insurance Tenant proposes to be maintained with respect to the Leased Property during the ensuing Fiscal Year and shall submit such proposal to Landlord on or before December 1 of the preceding Lease Year for Landlord’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In the event that Landlord

 

27



 

shall fail to respond within thirty (30) days after receipt of such proposal, such proposal shall be deemed approved.

 

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

 

9.3          Form Satisfactory, Etc. All insurance policies and endorsements required pursuant to this Article 9 shall be fully paid for, nonassessable, and issued by reputable insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a general policy holder’s rating of no less than A in Best’s latest rating guide. All property, business interruption, liability and flood insurance policies shall include no deductible in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000). At all times, all property, business interruption, liability and flood insurance policies, with the exception of worker’s compensation insurance coverage, shall name Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee as additional insureds, as their interests may appear. All loss adjustments shall be payable as provided in Article 10, except that losses under liability and worker’s compensation insurance policies shall be payable directly to the party entitled thereto. Tenant shall cause all insurance premiums to be paid prior to the effective date of any policy, if required by such policy, or pursuant to an installment payment plan if permissible under such policy. Not more than twenty five (25) days nor less than five (5) days prior to the effective date of the policies or renewal policies (which, for renewal policies, shall be prior to the expiration of the existing policy), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of enforceable binders for such insurance coverage. Tenant shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Landlord certificates evidencing such insurance coverage within five (5) days after the effective date of such policies, and thereafter Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the policies or renewal policies promptly upon receipt by Tenant. All such policies shall provide Landlord (and any Facility Mortgagee if required by the same) thirty (30) days prior written notice of any material change or cancellation of such policy. In the event Tenant shall fail to effect (or cause to be effected) such insurance as herein required, to pay (or cause to be paid) the premiums therefor or to deliver (or cause to be delivered) such policies or certificates to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee at the times required, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon Notice to Tenant, to acquire such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Charges, together with interest accrued thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date such payment is made until (but excluding) the date repaid.

 

9.4          No Separate Insurance; Self-Insurance. Tenant shall not take (or permit any Person to take) out separate insurance, concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required by this Article 9, or increase the amount of any existing insurance by securing an additional policy or additional policies, unless all parties having an insurable interest in the

 

28



 

subject matter of such insurance, including Landlord and all Facility Mortgagees, are included therein as additional insureds and the loss is payable under such insurance in the same manner as losses are payable under this Agreement. In the event Tenant shall take out any such separate insurance or increase any of the amounts of the then existing insurance, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice thereof. Tenant shall not self-insure (or permit any Person to self-insure) with respect to any insurance required to be carried hereunder by Tenant.

 

9.5          Indemnification of Landlord. Notwithstanding the existence of any insurance provided for herein and without regard to the policy limits of any such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of the following, except to the extent caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct: (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about the Leased Property or portion thereof or adjoining sidewalks or rights of way, (b) any past, present or future use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance or repair by Tenant, any Manager or anyone claiming under any of them or Tenant’s Personal Property or any litigation, proceeding or claim by governmental entities or other third parties to which Landlord is made a party or participant relating to the Leased Property or portion thereof or Tenant’s Personal Property or such use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance, or repair thereof including, failure to perform obligations (other than Condemnation proceedings) to which Landlord is made a party, (c) any Impositions that are the obligations of Tenant to pay pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, and (d) any failure on the part of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Agreement. Tenant, at its expense, shall contest, resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord (and shall not be responsible for any duplicative attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord) or may compromise or otherwise dispose of the same, with Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The obligations of Tenant under this Section 9.5 are in addition to the obligations set forth in Section 4.4 and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE 10

 

CASUALTY

 

10.1        Insurance Proceeds. Except as provided in the last clause of this sentence, all proceeds payable by reason of any loss or damage to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and insured under any policy of insurance required by Article 9 (other than the proceeds of any business interruption insurance) shall be paid directly to Landlord (subject to the provisions of Section 10.2) and all loss adjustments with respect to losses payable to Landlord shall require the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all such proceeds less than or equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) shall be paid directly to Tenant and such losses may be adjusted without Landlord’s consent. If Tenant is required to reconstruct or repair the Leased Property as provided herein,

 

29



 

such proceeds shall be paid out by Landlord from time to time for the reasonable costs of the reconstruction or repair necessitated by such damage or destruction, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2.4. Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any excess proceeds of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be paid to Tenant. In the event that the provisions of Section 10.2.1 are applicable, the insurance proceeds shall be retained by the party entitled thereto pursuant to Section 10.2.1.

 

10.2        Damage or Destruction.

 

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

 

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

 

10.2.3         Insufficient Insurance Proceeds. If the cost of the repair or restoration of the Facility exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord and Tenant pursuant to Section 9.1, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that, if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement). In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant, given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided, however, in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(b). In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property by Notice to the other, whereupon, this Agreement shall so terminate and insurance proceeds shall be distributed as provided in Section 10.2.1. It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall be strictly liable and solely responsible for the amount of any deductible and shall, upon any insurable loss, pay over the amount of such deductible to Landlord at the time and in the manner herein provided for payment of the applicable proceeds to Landlord.

 

10.2.4         Disbursement of Proceeds. In the event Tenant is required to restore the Leased Property pursuant to Section 10.2 and this Agreement is not terminated pursuant to this Article 10, Tenant shall commence (or cause to be commenced) promptly and continue

 

30



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

31



 

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

 

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

 

ARTICLE 11


CONDEMNATION

 

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

 

11.2        Partial Condemnation. In the event of a Condemnation of less than the whole of the Leased Property such that the Leased Property is still suitable for its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, to the extent of the Award and any additional amounts disbursed by Landlord as hereinafter provided, commence (or cause to be commenced) promptly and continue diligently to restore (or cause to be restored) the untaken portion of the Leased Improvements so that such Leased Improvements shall constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as such Leased Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all Legal Requirements, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.2. If the cost of the repair or restoration of the Leased Property exceeds the amount of the Award, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement). In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s Notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided, however, in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(b). In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement and the entire Award shall be allocated as set forth in Section 11.5.

 

32



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

11.5        Allocation of Award. Except as provided in Section 11.4 and the second sentence of this Section 11.5, the total Award shall be solely the property of and payable to Landlord. Any portion of the Award made for the taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, the taking of Tenant’s Personal Property, the taking of Capital Additions paid for by Tenant and Tenant’s removal and relocation expenses shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant (subject to the provisions

 

33



 

of Section 11.2). In any Condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own Award in conformity herewith, at its own expense.

 

ARTICLE 12


DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

 

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

 

(a)             should Tenant fail to make any payment of the Rent or any other sum payable hereunder when due, which failure shall continue for at least five (5) Business Days after Notice from Landlord to Tenant; or

 

(b)             should Tenant fail to maintain the insurance coverages required under Article 9; or

 

(c)             should Tenant default in the due observance or performance of any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained herein to be performed or observed by it (other than as specified in clauses (a) and (b) above) and should such default continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if such default is susceptible of cure but such cure cannot be accomplished with due diligence within such period of time and if, in addition, Tenant commences to cure or cause to be cured such default within thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord and thereafter prosecutes the curing of such default with all due diligence, such period of time shall be extended to such period of time (not to exceed an additional ninety (90) days in the aggregate) as may be necessary to cure such default with all due diligence; or

 

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

 

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

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

 

34



 

(g)             should any petition be filed by or against Tenant or any Guarantor under the Federal bankruptcy laws, or should any other proceeding be instituted by or against Tenant or any Guarantor seeking to adjudicate Tenant or any Guarantor a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of Tenant’s debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for Tenant or any Guarantor or for any substantial part of the property of Tenant or any Guarantor and such proceeding is not dismissed within one hundred eighty (180) days after institution thereof; or

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, enter upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and take possession of any and all of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, without liability for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the same at public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable Notice of the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Landlord or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, unless otherwise prohibited by law. Unless otherwise provided by law and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Tenant reasonable Notice, the requirement of reasonable Notice shall be met if such Notice is given at least ten (10) days before the date of sale. The proceeds from

 

35



 

any such disposition, less all expenses incurred in connection with the taking of possession, holding and selling of such property (including, reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be applied as a credit against the indebtedness which is secured by any Security Agreement granted by Tenant. Any surplus shall be paid to Tenant or as otherwise required by law and Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord, as Additional Charges, upon demand.

 

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

 

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

 

In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration and dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (a) relet the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option, be equal to, less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers

 

36



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

ARTICLE 13

 

HOLDING OVER

 

Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rate equal to two (2) times the Minimum

 

37



 

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

 

ARTICLE 14

 

LANDLORD DEFAULT

 

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

 

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

 

ARTICLE 15

 

PURCHASE RIGHTS

 

Landlord shall have the option to purchase Tenant’s Personal Property, at the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, for an amount equal to the then fair market value thereof (current replacement cost as determined by agreement of the parties or, in the absence of such agreement, appraisal), subject to, and with appropriate price adjustments for, all equipment leases, conditional sale contracts, UCC-1 financing statements and other encumbrances to which Tenant’s Personal Property is subject. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this

 

38



 

Agreement, Tenant shall use its reasonable efforts to transfer and assign, or cause to be transferred and assigned, to Landlord or its designee, or assist Landlord or its designee in obtaining, any contracts, licenses, and certificates required for the then operation of the Leased Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in this Article 15 shall diminish, impair or otherwise modify Landlord’s rights under the Security Agreement and that any amounts paid by Landlord in order to purchase Tenant’s Personal Property in accordance with this Article 15 shall be applied first to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may reasonably determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State and any balance shall be paid to Tenant.

 

ARTICLE 16

 

SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Any assignment or transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Agreement shall be subject to such assignee’s or transferee’s delivery to Landlord of (a) a Guaranty, which Guaranty shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion and which Guaranty shall constitute an Incidental Document hereunder; (b) a pledge of the stock, partnership, membership or other ownership interests of such assignee or other transferee to secure Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement and the Incidental Documents, which pledge shall be in form and

 

39



 

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

 

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

 

16.2        Required Sublease Provisions. Any sublease of all or any portion of the Leased Property shall provide (a) that it is subject and subordinate to this Agreement and to the matters to which this Agreement is or shall be subject or subordinate; (b) that in the event of termination of this Agreement or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Agreement, Landlord may, at its option, terminate such sublease or take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor the Facility Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Agreement, if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease not consented to in writing by Landlord or by any previous prepayment of more than one (1) month’s rent, (iv) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, (v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for under the sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment, (vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of such subtenant unless actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any portion of the Leased Property; and (c) in the event that such subtenant receives a written Notice from Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such party may direct. All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Facility Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited, against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of

 

40



 

Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn. An original counterpart of each such sublease and assignment and assumption, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and (x) in the case of an assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep and perform all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the performance thereof and (y) in the case of either an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder.

 

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

 

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

 

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

ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

17.1        Estoppel Certificates.

20.2        Subordination of Lease. This Agreement and any and all rights of Tenant hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate to any ground or master lease, and to all mortgages and deeds of trust, which may now or hereafter affect the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or any improvements thereon and/or any of such leases, whether or not such mortgages or deeds of trust shall also cover other lands and/or buildings and/or leases, to each and every advance made or hereafter to be made under such mortgages and deeds of trust, and to all renewals, modifications, replacements and extensions of such leases and such mortgages and deeds of trust and all consolidations of such mortgages and deeds of trust.

44



 

Landlord, the lessor under any such lease or the holder of any such mortgage or the trustee or beneficiary of any deed of trust or any of their respective successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination.

Tenant agrees at any time and from time to time to execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of Tenant’s agreement to attorn, as aforesaid and Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with an instrument of nondisturbance and attornment from each such Superior Mortgagee and Superior Landlord (other than the lessors under any ground leases with respect to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Tenant whereby such Superior Mortgagee or Superior Lessor, as applicable, shall agree to recognize Tenant’s possessory and other rights under this Agreement notwithstanding any foreclosure or lease termination, subject to the provisions of this Section 20.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

 

45



 

any Successor Landlord shall be liable (a) to pay to Tenant any amounts owed under Section 5.1.2(b), (b) to pay to Tenant any portions of insurance proceeds or Awards received by Landlord or the Successor Landlord required to be paid to Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (c) to recognize any reduction in Minimum Rent attributable to the provisions of Section 4.1.1(b).

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 22, the term “party” shall include any direct or indirect parent of a party.

 

22.2        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 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 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

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.

 

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

 

22.7        Final Judgment. 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.

 

22.8        Payment. Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.

MISCELLANEOUS

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

23.5        Acceptance of Surrender. No surrender to Landlord of this Agreement or of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any

representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.

 

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

 

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

 

23.8        Quiet Enjoyment. Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Leased Property for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Encumbrance permitted under Article 20 or otherwise permitted to be created by Landlord hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, provided the same do not materially interfere with Tenant’s ability to operate the Facility and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant any right to cancel or terminate this Agreement or abate, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other sum payable under this Agreement, or to fail to perform any other obligation of Tenant hereunder.

 

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

WHEREAS, Tenant is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guarantor and the transactions contemplated by the Lease are of direct material benefit to Guarantor;

3.3                                 Validity of Agreement.

3.4                                 Payment of Expenses. Guarantor agrees, as principal obligor and not as guarantor only, to pay to Landlord forthwith, upon demand, in immediately available federal funds, all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred or expended by Landlord in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty, together with interest on amounts recoverable under this Guaranty from the time such amounts become due until payment at the Overdue Rate.

3.8                                 Taxes, Etc. Guarantor shall pay and discharge promptly as they become due and payable all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges or levies imposed upon

 

2



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

3.12                           No Change in Control. Guarantor shall not permit the occurrence of any direct or indirect Change in Control of Tenant or Guarantor.

 

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

 

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

 

3



 

Guarantor of any such set-off made by Landlord and the application made by Landlord of the proceeds thereof.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

4



 

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

 

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

 

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

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

15.                                 Disputes.

 

(a)                                  Any disputes, claims or controversies between the parties (i) arising out of or relating to this Guaranty, 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, 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 Guaranty, 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. 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 Section 15, the term “party” shall include any direct or indirect parent of a 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 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

 

7



 

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

 

(g)                                 Final Judgment. 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 Guaranty 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)                                 Payment. 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)                                     Beneficiaries. This Section 15 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.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

All payments to Landlord shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds or by other means acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. Rent for any partial calendar month shall be prorated on a per diem basis.

 

3.1.1                     Minimum Rent.

 

(a)                                  Payments. Minimum Rent shall be paid in equal monthly installments in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar month during the Term.

 

(b)                                 Adjustments of Minimum Rent Following Disbursements Under Sections 5.1.2(b), 10.2.3 and 11.2. Effective on the date of each disbursement to pay for the cost of any repairs, maintenance, renovations or replacements pursuant to Sections  5.1.2(b), 10.2.3 or 11.2, the annual Minimum Rent shall be increased by a per annum amount equal to the Disbursement Rate times the amount so disbursed. If any such disbursement is made during any calendar month on a day other than the first Business Day of such calendar month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first Business Day of the immediately following calendar month (in addition to the amount of Minimum Rent payable with respect to such calendar month, as adjusted pursuant to this paragraph (c)) the amount by which Minimum Rent for the preceding calendar month, as adjusted for such disbursement on a per diem basis, exceeded the amount of Minimum Rent paid by Tenant for such preceding calendar month.

 

3.1.2                     Additional Rent.

 

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

 

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

 

15



 

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

 

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

 

(d)                                 Confirmation of Additional Rent. Tenant shall utilize, or cause to be utilized, an accounting system for the Leased Property in accordance with its usual and customary practices and in all material respects in accordance with GAAP, which will accurately record all Gross Revenues and Tenant shall retain, for at least three (3) years after the expiration of each Lease Year, reasonably adequate records conforming to such accounting system showing all Gross Revenues for such Lease Year. Landlord, at its own expense, except as provided hereinbelow, shall have the right, exercisable by Notice to Tenant, by its accountants or representatives, to audit the information set forth in the Officer’s Certificate referred to in subparagraph (c) above and, in connection with such audits, to examine Tenant’s books and records with respect thereto (including supporting data and sales and excise tax returns). Landlord shall begin such audit as soon as reasonably possible following its receipt of the applicable Officer’s Certificate and shall complete such audit as soon as reasonably possible thereafter. All such audits shall be performed at the location where such books and records are customarily kept and in such a manner so as to minimize any interference with Tenant’s business operations. If any such audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Additional Rent and either Tenant agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the amount of the deficiency, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, from the date such payment should have been

 

16



 

made to the date of payment thereof, and if the amount of such deficiency exceeds five percent (5%) of the Additional Rent that should have been paid for any Lease Year, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the aggregate amount of all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any such audit. If any such audit discloses that Tenant paid more Additional Rent for any Lease Year than was due hereunder, and either Landlord agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall; at Landlord’s option, either grant Tenant a credit or pay to Tenant an amount equal to the amount of such overpayment against Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the time of payment by Tenant until the date such credit is applied or paid, as the case may be; provided, however, that, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the unapplied balance of such credit to Tenant, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment from Landlord. Any dispute concerning the correctness of an audit shall be settled by arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Article 22.

 

Any proprietary information obtained by Landlord with respect to Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be treated as confidential, except that such information may be disclosed or used, subject to appropriate confidentiality safeguards, pursuant to court order or in any litigation between the parties and except further that Landlord may disclose such information to any prospective lender, provided that Landlord shall direct such lender to maintain such information as confidential. The obligations of Tenant and Landlord contained in this Section 3.1.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

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

 

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

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

 

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

 

(b)                                 Utility Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and other utilities used in connection with the Leased Property.

 

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

Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all other amounts, liabilities and obligations, including, without limitation, ground rents, if any, and all amounts payable under any equipment leases and all agreements to indemnify Landlord under Sections 4.4.2 and 9.5.

 

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

 

3.2                               Late Payment of Rent, Etc. If any installment of Minimum Rent, Additional Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional Charges which are payable directly

 

18



 

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

 

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

 

3.3                               Net Lease. The Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord so that this Agreement shall yield to Landlord the full amount of the installments or amounts of the Rent throughout the Term, subject to any other provisions of this Agreement which expressly provide otherwise, including those provisions for adjustment or abatement of such Rent.

 

3.4                               No Termination, Abatement, Etc. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each of Landlord and Tenant, to the maximum extent permitted by law, shall remain bound by this Agreement in accordance with its terms and shall not take any action without the consent of the other to modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement. In addition, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant shall not seek, or be entitled to, any abatement, deduction, deferment or reduction of the Rent, or set-off against the Rent, nor shall the respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant be otherwise affected by reason of (a) any damage to or destruction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, from whatever cause or any Condemnation, (b) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of, or restriction upon, Tenant’s use of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or the interference with such use by any Person or by reason of eviction by paramount title; (c) any claim which Tenant may have against Landlord by reason of any default (other than a monetary default) or breach of any warranty by Landlord under this Agreement or any other agreement between Landlord and Tenant, or to which Landlord and Tenant are parties; (d) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings affecting Landlord or any assignee or transferee of Landlord; or (e) for any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing (other than a monetary default by Landlord). Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, Tenant hereby waives all rights arising from any occurrence whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by law (a) to modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement or quit or surrender the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or (b) which would entitle Tenant to any abatement, reduction, suspension or deferment of the Rent or other sums payable or other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The obligations of Tenant hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements, and the Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant

 

19



 

hereunder shall continue to be payable in all events unless the obligations to pay the same shall be terminated pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement.

Tenant shall keep (or cause to be kept), at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, the Leased Property and all private roadways, sidewalks and curbs appurtenant thereto (and Tenant’s Personal Property) in good order and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted (whether or not the need for such repairs occurs as a result of Tenant’s or any Manager’s use, any prior use, the elements or the age of the Leased Property or Tenant’s Personal Property or any portion thereof), and shall promptly make or cause to be made all necessary and appropriate repairs and replacements to the Leased Property of every kind and nature, whether interior or exterior, structural or nonstructural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen or arising by reason of a condition existing prior to the Commencement Date (concealed or otherwise).

5.1.2                     Landlord’s Obligations.

 

(a)                                  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Landlord shall not, under any circumstances, be required to build or rebuild any improvement on the Leased Property, or to make any repairs, replacements, alterations, restorations or renewals of any nature or description to the Leased Property, whether ordinary or extraordinary, structural or nonstructural, foreseen or unforeseen, or to make any expenditure whatsoever with respect thereto, or to maintain the Leased Property in any way. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the right to make repairs at the Leased Property at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law in effect on the Commencement Date or thereafter enacted. Landlord shall have the right to give, record and post, as appropriate, notices of nonresponsibility under any mechanic’s lien laws now or hereafter existing.

 

(b)                                 If, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Tenant is required to make any expenditures in connection with any repair, maintenance or renovation with respect to the Leased Property, Tenant may, at its election, advance such funds or give Landlord Notice thereof, which Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the required repair, renovation or replacement, the estimated cost thereof and such other information with respect thereto as Landlord may reasonably require. Provided that no Event of

 

23



 

Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Tenant shall otherwise comply with the applicable provisions of Article 6, Landlord shall, within ten (10) Business Days after such Notice, subject to and in accordance with the applicable provisions of Article 6, disburse such required funds to Tenant (or, if Tenant shall so elect, directly to the Manager or any other Person performing the required work) and, upon such disbursement, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may elect not to disburse such required funds to Tenant; provided, however, that if Landlord shall elect not to disburse such required funds as aforesaid, Tenant's obligation to make such required repair, renovation or replacement shall be deemed waived by Landlord, and, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall have no obligation to make such required repair, renovation or replacement.

 

5.1.3                       Nonresponsibility of Landlord, Etc. All materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics and laborers and other persons contracting with Tenant with respect to the Leased Property, or any part thereof, are hereby charged with notice that liens on the Leased Property or on Landlord's interest therein are expressly prohibited and that they must look solely to Tenant to secure payment for any work done or material furnished to Tenant or any Manager or for any other purpose during the term of this Agreement.

 

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialmen for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials for any alteration, addition, improvement or repair to the Leased Property or any part thereof or as giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to the filing of any lien against the Leased Property or any part thereof nor to subject Landlord's estate in the Leased Property or any part thereof to liability under any mechanic's lien law of any State in any way, it being expressly understood Landlord's estate shall not be subject to any such liability.

 

5.2                               Tenant's Personal Property. Tenant shall provide and maintain (or cause to be provided and maintained) throughout the Term all such Tenant's Personal Property as shall be necessary in order to operate in compliance with applicable material Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements and otherwise in accordance with customary practice in the industry for the Permitted Use. If, from and after the Commencement Date, Tenant acquires an interest in any item of tangible personal property (other than motor vehicles) on, or in connection with, the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, which belongs to anyone other than Tenant, Tenant shall require the agreements permitting such use to provide that Landlord or its designee may assume Tenant's rights and obligations under such agreement upon Landlord's purchase of the same in accordance with the provisions of Article 15 and the assumption of management or operation of the Facility by Landlord or its designee.

 

5.3                               Yield Up. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Leased Property to Landlord in substantially the same condition in which the Leased Property was in on the Commencement Date, except as repaired, rebuilt, restored, altered or added to as permitted or required by the provisions of this Agreement, reasonable wear and tear excepted (and casualty damage and Condemnation, in the event that

 

24



 

this Agreement is terminated following a casualty or Condemnation in accordance with Article 10 or Article 11 excepted).

If requested by Landlord, Tenant shall continue to manage the Facility after the expiration of the Term for up to one hundred eighty (180) days, on such reasonable terms (which shall include an agreement to reimburse Tenant for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, and reasonable administrative costs), as Landlord shall reasonably request.

 

5.4                               Management Agreement. Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), enter into, amend or modify the provisions of any Management Agreement with respect to the Leased Property. Any Management Agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.4 shall be subordinate to this Agreement and shall provide, inter alia, that all amounts due from Tenant to Manager thereunder shall be subordinate to all amounts due from Tenant to Landlord (provided that, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Tenant may pay all amounts due to Manager thereunder pursuant to such Management Agreement) and for termination thereof, at Landlord’s option, upon the termination of this Agreement. Tenant shall not take any action, grant any consent or permit any action under any such Management Agreement which might have a material adverse effect on Landlord, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

No Capital Addition shall be made which would tie in or connect any Leased Improvements with any other improvements on property adjacent to the Leased Property (and not part of the Land) including, without limitation, tie-ins of buildings or other structures or utilities. Except as permitted herein, Tenant shall not finance the cost of any construction of such improvement by the granting of a lien on or security interest in the Leased Property or such improvement, or Tenant’s interest therein, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld by Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion.

Landlord agrees to join in any such proceedings if required legally to prosecute such contest, provided that Landlord shall not thereby be subjected to any liability therefor (including, without limitation, for the payment of any costs or expenses in connection therewith) unless Tenant agrees by agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, to

 

26



 

assume and indemnify Landlord with respect to the same. Tenant shall be entitled to any refund of any Claims and such charges and penalties or interest thereon which have been paid by Tenant or paid by Landlord to the extent that Landlord has been fully reimbursed by Tenant. If Tenant shall fail (x) to pay or cause to be paid any Claims when finally determined, (y) to provide reasonable security therefor or (z) to prosecute or cause to be prosecuted any such contest diligently and in good faith, Landlord may, upon reasonable notice to Tenant (which notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine that the same is not practicable), pay such charges, together with interest and penalties due with respect thereto, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor, upon demand, as Additional Charges.

 

ARTICLE 9

 

INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION

 

9.1                               General Insurance Requirements. Tenant shall, at all times during the Term and at any other time Tenant shall be in possession of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, keep (or cause to be kept) the Leased Property and all property located therein or thereon, insured against the risks and in such amounts as is against such risks and in such amounts as Landlord shall reasonably require and may be commercially reasonable. Tenant shall prepare a proposal setting forth the insurance Tenant proposes to be maintained with respect to the Leased Property during the ensuing Fiscal Year and shall submit such proposal to Landlord on or before December 1 of the preceding Lease Year for Landlord’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In the event that Landlord shall fail to respond within thirty (30) days after receipt of such proposal, such proposal shall be deemed approved.

 

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

 

9.3                               Form Satisfactory, Etc. All insurance policies and endorsements required pursuant to this Article 9 shall be fully paid for, nonassessable, and issued by reputable insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a general policy holder’s rating of no less than A in Best’s latest rating guide.

Tenant shall cause all insurance premiums to be paid prior to the effective date of any policy, if required by such policy, or pursuant to an installment payment plan if permissible under such policy. Not more than twenty five (25) days nor less than five (5) days prior to the effective date of the policies or renewal policies (which, for renewal policies, shall be prior to the expiration of the existing policy), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of enforceable binders for such insurance coverage. Tenant shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Landlord certificates evidencing such insurance coverage within five (5) days after the effective date of such policies, and thereafter Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the policies or renewal policies promptly upon receipt by Tenant. All such policies shall provide Landlord (and any Facility Mortgagee if required by the same) thirty (30) days prior written notice of any material change or cancellation of such policy. In the event Tenant shall fail to effect (or cause to be effected) such insurance as herein required, to pay (or cause to be paid) the premiums therefor or to deliver (or cause to be delivered) such policies or certificates to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee at the times required, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon Notice to Tenant, to acquire such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Charges, together with interest accrued thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date such payment is made until (but excluding) the date repaid.

 

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

 

9.5                               Indemnification of Landlord. Notwithstanding the existence of any insurance provided for herein and without regard to the policy limits of any such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of the following, except to the extent caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct: (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about the Leased Property or portion thereof or adjoining sidewalks or rights of way, (b) any past, present or future use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance or repair by Tenant, any Manager or anyone claiming under any of them or Tenant’s Personal Property or any litigation, proceeding or claim by governmental entities or other third parties to which Landlord is made a party or participant relating to the Leased Property or portion thereof or Tenant’s Personal Property or such use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance, or repair thereof including, failure to perform obligations (other than Condemnation proceedings) to which Landlord is made a party, (c) any Impositions that are the obligations of Tenant to pay pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, and (d) any failure on the part of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Agreement. Tenant, at its expense, shall contest, resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord

 

28



 

(and shall not be responsible for any duplicative attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord) or may compromise or otherwise dispose of the same, with Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The obligations of Tenant under this Section 9.5 are in addition to the obligations set forth in Section 4.4 and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE 10

 

CASUALTY

 

10.1                        Insurance Proceeds. Except as provided in the last clause of this sentence, all proceeds payable by reason of any loss or damage to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and insured under any policy of insurance required by Article 9 (other than the proceeds of any business interruption insurance) shall be paid directly to Landlord (subject to the provisions of Section 10.2) and all loss adjustments with respect to losses payable to Landlord shall require the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all such proceeds less than or equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) shall be paid directly to Tenant and such losses may be adjusted without Landlord’s consent. If Tenant is required to reconstruct or repair the Leased Property as provided herein, such proceeds shall be paid out by Landlord from time to time for the reasonable costs of the reconstruction or repair necessitated by such damage or destruction, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2.4. Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any excess proceeds of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be paid to Tenant. In the event that the provisions of Section 10.2.1 are applicable, the insurance proceeds shall be retained by the party entitled thereto pursuant to Section 10.2.1.

 

10.2                        Damage or Destruction.

 

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

 

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

 

10.2.3                                      Insufficient Insurance Proceeds. If the cost of the repair or restoration of the Facility exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord and Tenant pursuant to Section 9.1, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that, if Tenant shall

 

29



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

30



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

ARTICLE 11

 

CONDEMNATION

 

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

 

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

 

31



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

11.4                        Temporary Condemnation. In the event of any temporary Condemnation of the Leased Property or Tenant’s interest therein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall continue to pay (or cause to be paid), in the manner and on the terms herein specified, the full amount of the Rent. Tenant shall continue to perform and observe (or

 

32



 

cause to be performed and observed) all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Tenant to be performed and observed. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Tenant. Tenant shall, promptly upon the termination of any such period of temporary Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore the Leased Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, unless such period of temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term, in which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration.

 

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

 

ARTICLE 12

 

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

 

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

 

(a)                                  should Tenant fail to make any payment of the Rent or any other sum payable hereunder when due, which failure shall continue for at least five (5) Business Days after Notice from Landlord to Tenant; or

 

(b)                                 should Tenant fail to maintain the insurance coverages required under Article 9; or

 

(c)                                  should Tenant default in the due observance or performance of any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained herein to be performed or observed by it (other than as specified in clauses (a) and (b) above) and should such default continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if such default is susceptible of cure but such cure cannot be accomplished with due diligence within such period of time and if, in addition, Tenant commences to cure or cause to be cured such default within thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord and thereafter prosecutes the curing of such default with all due diligence, such period of time shall be extended to such period of time (not to exceed an additional ninety (90) days in the aggregate) as may be necessary to cure such default with all due diligence; or

 

(d)                                 should any material obligation of Tenant in respect of any Indebtedness for money borrowed or for any material property or services, or any guaranty relating thereto, be declared to be or become due and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof,

 

33



 

or should there occur and be continuing with respect to any such Indebtedness any event of default under any instrument or agreement evidencing or securing the same, the effect of which is to permit the holder or holders of such instrument or agreement or a trustee, agent or other representative on behalf of such holder or holders, to cause any such obligations to become due prior to its stated maturity; or

 

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

 

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

 

(g)                                 should any petition be filed by or against Tenant or any Guarantor under the Federal bankruptcy laws, or should any other proceeding be instituted by or against Tenant or any Guarantor seeking to adjudicate Tenant or any Guarantor a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of Tenant’s debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for Tenant or any Guarantor or for any substantial part of the property of Tenant or any Guarantor and such proceeding is not dismissed within one hundred eighty (180) days after institution thereof; or

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

then, and in any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies available to it, may terminate this Agreement by giving Notice thereof to Tenant and upon the expiration of the time, if any, fixed in such Notice, this Agreement shall terminate and all rights of Tenant under this

 

34



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

35



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

36



 

reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Overdue Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.

 

ARTICLE 13

 

HOLDING OVER

 

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

 

ARTICLE 14

 

LANDLORD DEFAULT

 

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

 

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

 

37



 

ARTICLE 15

 

PURCHASE RIGHTS

 

Landlord shall have the option to purchase Tenant’s Personal Property, at the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, for an amount equal to the then fair market value thereof (current replacement cost as determined by agreement of the parties or, in the absence of such agreement, appraisal), subject to, and with appropriate price adjustments for, all equipment leases, conditional sale contracts, UCC-1 financing statements and other encumbrances to which Tenant’s Personal Property is subject. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, Tenant shall use its reasonable efforts to transfer and assign, or cause to be transferred and assigned, to Landlord or its designee, or assist Landlord or its designee in obtaining, any contracts, licenses, and certificates required for the then operation of the Leased Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in this Article 15 shall diminish, impair or otherwise modify Landlord’s rights under the Security Agreement and that any amounts paid by Landlord in order to purchase Tenant’s Personal Property in accordance with this Article 15 shall be applied first to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may reasonably determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State and any balance shall be paid to Tenant.

 

ARTICLE 16

 

SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

38



 

case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement.

 

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

 

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

 

16.2                        Required Sublease Provisions. Any sublease of all or any portion of the Leased Property shall provide (a) that it is subject and subordinate to this Agreement and to the matters to which this Agreement is or shall be subject or subordinate; (b) that in the event of termination of this Agreement or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Agreement, Landlord may, at its option, terminate such sublease or take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor the Facility Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Agreement, if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease not consented to in writing by Landlord or by any previous prepayment of more than one (1) month’s rent, (iv) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, (v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for under the sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment, (vii) be responsible for any monies owing

 

39



 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

Without the consent of Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause to exist any lien, encumbrance or title retention agreement (“Encumbrance”) upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or interest therein, to secure any borrowing or other means of financing or refinancing, provided that any such Encumbrance shall comply with the provisions of Article 8 and Section 20.2.

 

20.2                        Subordination of Lease. This Agreement and any and all rights of Tenant hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate to any ground or master lease, and to all mortgages and deeds of trust, which may now or hereafter affect the Leased Property, or any

 

43



 

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

If any Superior Landlord or Superior Mortgagee shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Agreement (any such person, “Successor Landlord”), whether through possession, termination of lease, foreclosure action, assignment of lease or grant of deed, or otherwise, Tenant shall attorn to and recognize the Successor Landlord as Tenant’s landlord under this Agreement and Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment (provided that such instrument does not alter the terms of this Agreement), whereupon, this Agreement 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 Agreement, except that the Successor Landlord (unless formerly the landlord under this Agreement or its nominee or designee) shall not be (a) liable in any way to Tenant for any act or omission, neglect or default on the part of any prior Landlord under this Agreement, (b) responsible for any monies owing by or on deposit with any prior Landlord to the credit of Tenant (except to the extent actually paid or delivered to the Successor Landlord), (c) subject to any counterclaim or setoff which theretofore accrued to Tenant against any prior Landlord, (d) bound by any modification of this Agreement subsequent to such Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage, or by any previous prepayment of Rent for more than one (1) month in advance of the date due hereunder, which was not approved in writing by the Superior Landlord or the Superior Mortgagee thereto, (e) liable to Tenant beyond the Successor Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property and the rents, income, receipts, revenues, issues and profits issuing from the Leased Property, (f) responsible for the performance of any work to be done by the Landlord under this Agreement to render the Leased Property ready for occupancy by Tenant (subject to Landlord’s obligations under Section 5.1.2(b) or with respect to any insurance proceeds or Awards), or (g) required to remove any Person occupying the Leased Property or any part thereof, except if such person claims by, through or under the Successor Landlord. Tenant agrees at any time and from time to time to execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of Tenant’s agreement to attorn, as aforesaid and Landlord agrees to provide Tenant

with an instrument of nondisturbance and attornment from each such Superior Mortgagee and Superior Landlord (other than the lessors under any ground leases with respect to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Tenant whereby such Superior Mortgagee or Superior Lessor, as applicable, shall agree to recognize Tenant’s possessory and other rights under this Agreement notwithstanding any foreclosure or lease termination, subject to the provisions of this Section 20.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Successor Landlord shall be liable (a) to pay to Tenant any amounts owed under Section 5.1.2(b), (b) to pay to Tenant any portions of insurance proceeds or Awards received by Landlord or the Successor Landlord required to be paid to Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (c) to recognize any reduction in Minimum Rent attributable to the provisions of Section 4.1.1(b).

 

20.3                        Notice to Mortgagee and Superior Landlord. Subsequent to the receipt by Tenant of Notice from Landlord as to the identity of the Facility Mortgagee or Superior Landlord under a lease with Landlord, as ground lessee, which includes the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, as part of the demised premises and which complies with Section 20.1 (which Notice shall be accompanied by a copy of the applicable mortgage or lease), no Notice from Tenant to Landlord as to a default by Landlord under this Agreement shall be effective with respect to a Facility Mortgagee or Superior Landlord unless and until a copy of the same is given to such Facility Mortgagee or Superior Landlord at the address set forth in the above described Notice, and the curing of any of Landlord’s defaults within the applicable notice and cure periods set forth in Article 14 by such Facility Mortgagee or Superior Landlord shall be treated as performance by Landlord.

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.

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

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

 

22.7                        Final Judgment. 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.

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

49



 

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

 

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

 

23.8                        Quiet Enjoyment. Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Leased Property for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Encumbrance permitted under Article 20 or otherwise permitted to be created by Landlord hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, provided the same do not materially interfere with Tenant’s ability to operate the Facility and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant any right to cancel or terminate this Agreement or abate, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other sum payable under this Agreement, or to fail to perform any other obligation of Tenant hereunder.

 

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

 

23.10                 Notices.

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to Landlord’s entering into the Lease that Guarantor guarantee all of the payment and performance obligations of Tenant with respect to the Lease; and

 

WHEREAS, Tenant is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guarantor and the transactions contemplated by the Lease are of direct material benefit to Guarantor;

For purposes of this Guaranty the term “Guaranteed Obligations” shall mean the payment and performance of each and every obligation of Tenant to Landlord under the Lease or relating thereto, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and including, without limitation, the payment of the full amount of the Rent payable under the Lease.

 

3.                                  Representations and Covenants. Guarantor represents, warrants, covenants, and agrees that:

Guarantor, enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be subject to bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general equitable principles, regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty have been duly authorized by all requisite action of Guarantor and such execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor will not result in any breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or conflict with or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of Guarantor pursuant to the terms of, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, note, other evidence of indebtedness, agreement or other instrument to which it may be a party or by which it or any of its property or assets may be bound, or violate any provision of law, or any applicable order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court or any order or other public regulation of any governmental commission, bureau or administrative agency.

 

3.4                                 Payment of Expenses. Guarantor agrees, as principal obligor and not as guarantor only, to pay to Landlord forthwith, upon demand, in immediately available federal funds, all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred or expended by Landlord in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty, together with interest on amounts recoverable under this Guaranty from the time such amounts become due until payment at the Overdue Rate. Guarantor’s covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 3.4 shall survive the termination of this Guaranty.

 

3.5                                 Notices. Guarantor shall promptly give notice to Landlord of any event known to it which might reasonably result in a material adverse change in its financial condition.

 

3.6                                 Reports. Guarantor shall promptly provide to Landlord each of the financial reports, certificates and other documents required of it under the Lease.

 

3.7                                 Books and Records.

Guarantor shall permit access by Landlord and its agents to the books and records maintained by Guarantor during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice. Any proprietary information obtained by Landlord with respect to Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Guaranty shall be treated as confidential, except that such information may be disclosed or used, subject to appropriate confidentiality safeguards, pursuant to any court order or in any litigation between the parties and except further that Landlord may disclose such information to its prospective lenders, provided that Landlord shall direct such lenders to maintain such information as confidential.

 

3.8                                 Taxes, Etc. Guarantor shall pay and discharge promptly as they become due and payable all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges or levies imposed upon Guarantor or the income of Guarantor or upon any of the property, real, personal or mixed, of Guarantor, or upon any part thereof, as well as all claims of any kind (including claims for labor,

 

2



 

materials and supplies) which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien or charge upon any property and result in a material adverse change in the financial condition of Guarantor; provided, however, that Guarantor shall not be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim if the amount, applicability or validity thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings or other appropriate actions promptly initiated and diligently conducted and if Guarantor shall have set aside on its books such reserves of Guarantor, if any, with respect thereto as are required by generally accepted accounting principles.

 

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

 

3.10                           Compliance.

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

 

3.12                           No Change in Control. Guarantor shall not permit the occurrence of any direct or indirect Change in Control of Tenant or Guarantor.

 

4.                                  Guarantee.

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

 

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

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

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

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

 

(g)                            Final Judgment. 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 Guaranty 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)                            Payment. 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)                                Beneficiaries. This Section 15 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.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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