Guaranty dated as of February 11, 2009




 Exhibit 10.2.9 
 GUARANTY 
 (Parent Guaranty) 

This Guaranty (this “Guaranty”), dated as of February 11th, 2009, is made by Brookdale Senior Living Inc., a
Delaware corporation (together with any entity succeeding thereto by consolidation, merger or acquisition of its assets substantially as an entirety, “Guarantor”) for the benefit of the parties identified as “Landlord” on
Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof, or, with respect to the Agreements Regarding Leases identified on Exhibit A, PSLT-ALS Properties Holdings, LLC and PSLT-BLC Properties Holdings, LLC, (each such party, herein together
with its respective successors and assigns, “Landlord” and, herein together with their respective successors and assigns as owners of the properties hereinafter collectively described, “Landlords”). 
 Landlords have previously acquired a fee simple or ground leased interest in the parcels of land described in the “Lease
Agreements” identified on Exhibit A (as the same may be amended, restated, replaced, divided, or otherwise altered, the “Leases”) and the improvements located on said land (each a “Property” and,
collectively, the “Properties”). Landlords lease the Properties to the entities identified as “Tenant” on Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof (each a “Tenant” and, collectively, the
“Tenants”). Landlord may unilaterally update Exhibit A from time to time to reflect any lease and property that is or becomes the subject of a lease between a direct or indirect subsidiary of Guarantor and a direct or
indirect subsidiary of Ventas, Inc. Each of the Leases, “Agreements Regarding Leases” identified on Exhibit A and documents relating thereto to which any Affiliate of Landlord and any Affiliate of any Tenant is a party
(including the Second Tier Guaranties and any other guaranties of the Leases), is referred to herein as a “Lease Document” and collectively such documents are referred to herein, as amended from time to time, as the “Lease
Documents.” The term “Lease Documents” as used herein shall include any and all amendments, restatements, replacements, or substitutions of any such documents from time to time as well as any document(s) executed under or in
accordance with the provisions of Section 29 hereof, including any and all “New Leases” as defined therein. In conjunction with the Leases, Alterra Healthcare Corporation, a Delaware corporation delivered that certain Guaranty
of Agreement Regarding Leases, dated as of October 20, 2004, in favor of PSLT-ALS Properties Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and Brookdale Living Communities, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and a successor by merger to BLC
Senior Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation has delivered that certain Guaranty of Agreement Regarding Leases, dated as of October 19, 2004, in favor of PSLT-BLC Properties Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and that certain
Guaranty of Lease, dated as of January 28, 2004, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Guaranty, dated as of February 20, 2004, that certain Second Amendment to Guaranty, dated as of February 26, 2004, that certain Third
Amendment to Guaranty, dated as of March 10, 2004, that certain Fourth Amendment to Guaranty, dated as of March 30, 2004, that certain Fifth Amendment to Guaranty, dated as of May 13, 2004, that certain Sixth Amendment to Guaranty of
Lease, dated as of June 18, 2004, and that certain Seventh Amendment to Guaranty, dated as of April 30, 2005 (all of the guarantors listed therein collectively referred to herein as the “Second Tier Guarantors” and all of
the guaranties, as the same have been and may be amended, collectively referred to as the “Second Tier Guaranties”). Initially capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Lease
for the 13 Grand Court properties identified on Exhibit A (the “Grand Court Master Lease”). 








 Guarantor directly or indirectly owns all the stock, partnership interests or membership
interests, as the case may be, of each Tenant. In conjunction with the execution and delivery of this Guaranty, the Landlords have agreed to (i) amend the Grand Court Master Lease in certain respects pursuant to the Seventh Amendment to Master
Lease (the “Lease Amendment”), dated as of the date of this Guaranty, (ii) amend the Grand Court Guaranty in certain respects pursuant to the Eighth Amendment to Guaranty, dated as of the date of this Guaranty (the
“Guaranty Amendment”), (iii) enter into that certain Waiver Agreement, dated as of the date of this Guaranty (the “Waiver Agreement”), (iv) enter into that certain Second Amendment to Agreement Regarding
Leases (Brookdale), dated as of the date of this Guaranty, (v) enter into that certain First Amendment to Agreement Regarding Leases (Alterra), dated as of the date of this Guaranty, (vi) enter into that certain First Amendment to Guaranty
of Agreement Regarding Leases (Brookdale), dated as of the date of this Guaranty and (vii) enter into that certain First Amendment to Guaranty of Agreement Regarding Leases (Alterra), dated as of the date of this Guaranty. Landlords are
unwilling to enter into the Waiver Agreement unless Guarantor enters into this Guaranty. Such Waiver Agreement, and the ownership by Landlord of the Properties and the lease of the Properties to Tenants are of direct benefit to Guarantor among other
reasons because they substantially reduce the cost of reporting requirements and make it easier for Tenants to comply with certain financial covenants that put Tenant at an increased risk of default under the Lease Documents. Therefore, this
Guaranty will benefit, directly or indirectly, Guarantor. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of $10 and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor, intending to be legally bound, covenants and agrees with Landlords as follows: 
 1. Guaranty. Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Landlords that (a) all Rent and all
other sums due under the Lease Documents, whether due by acceleration or otherwise, including costs and expenses of collection (collectively, the “Monetary Obligations”) will be promptly and indefeasibly paid in full when due, in
accordance with the provisions of the Lease Documents and (b) without limiting the foregoing, each of the Tenants, the Second Tier Guarantors (each, an “Obligor”) will perform and observe each and every covenant, agreement,
term and condition of such parties in the applicable Lease Documents (the “Performance Obligations” and together with the Monetary Obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). If, for any reason, any of the Monetary
Obligations shall not be paid promptly when due after receipt of required notice to the applicable Tenant under the applicable Lease Document, if any, and after the expiration of any applicable grace period therefor, if any, Guarantor shall,
immediately upon demand, pay the same to the applicable Landlord with interest and penalty due thereon, if any, as stated in the applicable Lease Document. In addition to the foregoing, Guarantor hereby becomes surety to Landlord for the due and
punctual payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives all defenses that may be available to Guarantor as a surety and guarantor other than the defenses of payment of the Monetary
Obligations and performance of the Performance Obligations.

 2. Nature of Guaranty. Landlords may each enforce this
Guaranty without first having recourse against any Obligor or exhausting its rights or remedies under any Lease Document; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit Landlord from exercising its rights against any or all Obligors
simultaneously. This Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are present, primary, direct, continuing, unconditional, irrevocable and absolute. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection.

advantages and benefits, directly or indirectly, from the making of this Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations, including as set forth in the introductory paragraphs to this Guaranty; (c) no representations or agreements of any kind have been

Guarantor any information or documents (financial or otherwise) heretofore or hereafter acquired by Landlord in the course of its relationship with any Obligor; (h) there shall be no conveyance, sale, assignment, transfer, pledge,

with its Affiliates, owns or controls, directly or indirectly, in the aggregate more than fifty percent (50%) of the beneficial ownership interests of Guarantor or possesses, directly or indirectly, the power to direct or cause the direction of
the management or policies of Guarantor, whether through the ability to exercise voting power, by contract or otherwise (a “Change of Control”), unless (1) Guarantor, immediately following such Change of Control, has a Net
Worth (as defined below) equal to or greater than $275,000,000 pursuant to Section 16; (2) there is no then existing monetary “Event of Default” under, and as defined in, any of the Lease Documents; and (3) such
Change of Control would not otherwise result in a default or “Event of Default” under, and as defined in, any of the Lease Documents, this Guaranty or the Property Management Contract; (i) Guarantor shall not merge or consolidate with

the Lease Documents; and (3) such merger, consolidation or sale would not otherwise result in a default or “Event of Default” under, and as defined in, any of the Lease Documents, this Guaranty, or the Property Management Contract;

obligations herein provided for; (l) Guarantor has taken all requisite actions necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty; (m) this Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of
Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to (1) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (2) general principles of
equity; (n) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty will not require any consent, approval, authorization, order or declaration of or filing or registration with any court, any Governmental Authority or any other Person;

regulation applicable to Guarantor; (p) Guarantor is an Affiliate of each Obligor; and (q) there is no litigation pending or, to the knowledge of Guarantor, threatened against Guarantor that has not been disclosed in writing to Landlord

 4.13. any default by Guarantor under this Guaranty or any right of setoff, counterclaim or defense (other than payment in full of the Monetary Obligations in accordance with the terms of any Lease
Document) that Guarantor may or might have to its undertakings, liabilities and obligations hereunder, each and every such defense being hereby waived by Guarantor; or 
 4.14. any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, that might constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of Guarantor (whether or not Guarantor shall have knowledge or notice thereof) other than payment in full of the Monetary Obligations.

specific Property(ies) designated by such Landlord with, and be advised as to the same by, appropriate personnel of Guarantor, Obligors and Property Manager having operational and accounting responsibilities for the Property(ies) so specified by
such Landlord and to review, and make abstracts from and copies of, the books, accounts and records of Guarantor, Obligors and/or their respective Affiliates relative to any such Property(ies), and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, conducted at such Landlord’s sole cost and expense (but only as to cost and expense of such Landlord), in each case provided, and on the condition, that any such discussions or reviews, abstracting or copying shall not materially
interfere with Guarantor’s business operations relative to any affected Property(ies). Unless otherwise agreed in writing by any Landlord and Guarantor, all of the discussions, reviews, abstracting and copying referenced in this
Section 15 shall occur during normal business hours. 
 16. Net Worth Requirement.
Guarantor shall maintain as of the last day of each calendar quarter a Net Worth of not less than $275,000,000; provided that, the failure to maintain such Net Worth shall not constitute an Event of Default if (1) Guarantor’s Net Worth at
all times remains at least $100,000,000 and (2) Guarantor has paid to Landlord any required Net Worth Deposits in accordance with the terms hereof. All determinations of Net Worth in this Section 16 shall be made based on the Net
Worth Report (as defined below). If the Guarantor’s Net Worth is ever below $275,000,000 (as reflected on any Net Worth Report), then Guarantor shall be required to deposit (such deposit, the “Net Worth Deposit”) with Landlord,
within five (5) Business Days following the determination thereof, an amount (the “Required Net Worth Deposit Amount”) equal to (i) the product of (x) the monthly amount of Fixed Rent then due under the Grand Court
Leases, plus the monthly Base Rent (as defined in the Leases other than the Grand Court Leases) then due under the Leases other than the Grand Court Leases (collectively, the “Lease Rent”) and (y) the applicable number of
months (the “Rent Multiplier”) set forth in the chart below that corresponds to such Net Worth of Guarantor: 
  

			
	 Net Worth ($):
	  	Number of Months:
		
	 If less than 275,000,000, but equal to or greater than 250,000,000
	  	3.0
		
	 If less than 250,000,000, but equal to or greater than 200,000,000
	  	6.0
		
	 If less than 200,000,000, but equal to or greater than 150,000,000
	  	9.0
		
	 If less than 150,000,000, but equal to or greater than 100,000,000
	  	12.0

  

 11 









 Upon each January 1st and upon any increase in the Rent Multiplier, Guarantor shall
deposit with Landlord and additional portion of the Net Worth Deposit equal to the (a) the Required Net Worth Deposit Amount, minus (b) the amount of any unrefunded Net Worth Deposit deposited with Landlord by Guarantor. The
Net Worth Deposit shall be the property of Landlord and may be commingled with any other funds of Landlord. Any interest on the Net Worth Deposit shall be retained by Landlord and Guarantor shall no rights with respect to any such interest. The Net
Worth Deposit shall secure payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations and, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord may apply the Net Worth Deposit to the Guaranteed Obligations in such order and manner as it may determine in
its sole discretion and any such application shall reduce the amount of the Net Worth Deposit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it shall be an Event of Default if the Guarantor shall fail to maintain for each calendar quarter a Net
Worth of at least $100,000,000. Provided that no Event of Default or Material Adverse Change has occurred hereunder or under any of the Lease Documents, if Guarantor’s Net Worth increases such that for two consecutive quarters the Net Worth
Deposit, exclusive of interest, held by Landlord exceeds the Required Net Worth Deposit Amount (as evidenced by the Net Worth Report), then within five (5) Business Days following such determination and notice thereof from Guarantor, Landlord
shall refund such excess portion to Guarantor, such excess portion shall be equal to (x) the Net Worth Deposit held by Landlord, minus (y) (i) the Rent Multiplier applicable to the lowest Net Worth of Guarantor during
such two quarter period, multiplied by (ii) the Lease Rent on the date of such determination. No later than 93 days after the full, final and indefeasible performance and satisfaction of all of the Guaranteed Obligations, an amount equal to any
remaining Net Worth Deposit shall be refunded to Guarantor. 
 “Net Worth” shall mean, at any date, an amount
equal to, as determined in accordance with GAAP, (x) the consolidated assets of Guarantor at such date minus (y) (i) the total consolidated liabilities of Guarantor at such date, and (ii) the total consolidated
intangible assets shown at such date on the Guarantor’s GAAP balance sheet. As soon as available, and in any event within 40 days after the end of each calendar quarter (including the last quarter of the year), Guarantor shall deliver to each
Landlord, in hard copy and electronic format, an Officer’s Certificate (the “Net Worth Report”) accurately and truthfully certifying (i) the Net Worth of Guarantor; (ii) the calculations on which such determination
was made; and (iii) supporting documentation demonstrating the accuracy of the calculations on which such determination was made. If Guarantor fails to timely provide such Officer’s Certificate or if such certificate is not accurate or
truthful in any respect, the Net Worth Report shall be deemed to have been delivered reporting a Net Worth of $0. 
  

 12 









 “Material Adverse Change” shall mean any event or change in condition that
(a) has, or is reasonably expected to have, a material adverse effect on the business, assets, properties, operations or financial condition of Guarantor or any Tenant or (b) materially impairs, or is reasonably expected to impair, the
ability of Guarantor or any Tenant to perform its material obligations under any Lease Document; provided, however, that any event or change in condition will be deemed to have been a “Material Adverse Change” if such event or change in
condition when taken together with all other events and conditions occurring or in existence at such time (including all other events and conditions which, but for the fact that a representation, warranty or covenant is subject to a materiality
exception, would cause such representation or warranty contained herein to be untrue or such covenant to be breached) would result in a “Material Adverse Change”, even though, individually, such event or change in condition would not do
so. 
 For example, and not in limitation of the other provisions of this Section 16, if the Net Worth Report for
March 31, 2009 reports a Net Worth of $150,000,000, the Net Worth Report for June 30, 2009 reports a Net Worth of $200,000,000, the Net Worth Report for September 30, 2009 reports a Net Worth of $150,000,000 and the Net Worth Report
for December 31, 2009 reports a Net Worth of $200,000,000, then following the Net Worth Report for March 31, 2009, Guarantor would be required to post a Net Worth Deposit of 9.0 months of Lease Rent, which would stay in place even after
the Net Worth Report for December 31, 2009. If the March 31, 2010 Net Worth Report reports a Net Worth of $275,000,000, then assuming the other conditions for the return of the Net Worth Deposit are met, Guarantor would be entitled to a
refund of that unapplied portion of the Net Worth Deposit in excess of 6.0 months of Lease Rent held by Landlord (6.0 being the Rent Multiplier corresponding to the December 31, 2009 Net Worth Report). 
 17. Restrictive Covenants. Guarantor and its Affiliates (excluding, however, Fortress Investments Group, LLC
and Capital Z Financial Services Fund, LLC, and Affiliates of either of them (other than Guarantor and its direct or indirect subsidiaries)) shall be subject to the restrictive covenants and conditions contained in Exhibit D attached to the
Grand Court Leases, subject to the limitations contained in Exhibit D attached to the Grand Court Leases. Upon the occurrence of any Change of Control, whether or not consented to by Landlords, Guarantor shall, if reasonably required by any
Landlord, cause the person or entity, as determined by such Landlord, to execute a guaranty of all of Lease Documents for the benefit of such Landlord in the form of this Guaranty.

 19. Termination and Reinstatement. The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty
shall automatically terminate after each Landlord has received, and not been required to disgorge any part of, indefeasible payment of all Monetary Obligations and all other sums due and owing under this Guaranty. If payment is made by any Obligor
or Guarantor, or by any third party, on the Monetary Obligations and thereafter any Landlord is forced to remit, rescind or restore the amount of that payment under any federal or state bankruptcy law or law for the relief of debtors or for any
other reason, (a) this Guaranty shall be automatically reinstated to the extent of such amounts; (b) the amount of such payment shall be considered to have been unpaid at all times for the purposes of enforcement of this Guaranty; and
(c) the obligations of Obligor guaranteed herein shall be automatically reinstated to the extent of such payment. 
  

 14 









 20. Mortgages of Properties. If any Landlord proposes to grant
a mortgage on or refinance any mortgage of any Property, Guarantor agrees to cooperate in the process, and cause its Affiliates (including Tenant) to cooperate in such process, and shall permit such Landlord and the proposed mortgagee, at such
Landlord’s expense, to meet with officers of Guarantor at Guarantor’s offices and to discuss the Guarantor’s business and finances and to meet with, and discuss the operations at the Property(ies) with, the employees of the Guarantor
and/or its Affiliates in charge of operations. Guarantor’s and such Affiliates’ cooperation shall include agreeing to be bound by and comply with such terms as are requested by the mortgage lender or its servicer, provided that the terms
are usual and customary for the same or similar financing transactions for that or similar mortgage lenders or agencies. Guarantor agrees that, at a minimum, terms similar to those that were part of the transactions relating to that certain
Multifamily Mortgage, Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement (New Jersey), dated as of December 11, 2007, between Brookdale Living Communities of New Jersey, LLC and MMA Mortgage Investment Corporation (the “Brendenwood
Financing”) shall be deemed to be usual and customary. On request of such Landlord, Guarantor agrees to provide any such prospective mortgagee the information to which Landlord is entitled hereunder, provided that if any such information is
not publicly available, such nonpublic information shall be made available only on a confidential basis. 
 21. Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, other than its doctrine regarding conflicts of laws. Guarantor irrevocably submits to the personal
jurisdiction of any federal or state court sitting in the State of Illinois with respect to any matter arising under this Guaranty. Guarantor consents to jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Illinois and of the Federal courts sitting in the
State of Illinois, and consents to venue in the State of Illinois, and Guarantor waives any right to stay, remove, or otherwise directly or indirectly interfere with such action based on such jurisdiction. 
 22. Miscellaneous. This Guaranty may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement duly executed by
Guarantor and Landlords and any Landlord’s mortgagee of any Property from time to time, if any; provided, however, that Landlords may, in their sole discretion, elect to waive any Event of Default, prospective or otherwise, by giving written
notice to Guarantor, which notice shall be revocable at any time at Landlord’s option. This Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of each Landlord and its successors and assigns as permitted hereunder,
including, without limitation, any mortgagee of any Landlord’s interest in any Property. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Guaranty, but this Guaranty shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. As used
herein, the terms “Tenant” and “Tenants” both include any successors and assigns with respect to the Leases. As used herein, the term “Second Tier Guarantor” includes its successors and assigns with respect to the
applicable Second Tier Guaranty. 
  

 15 









 23. Landlord Transfer of Properties. To the extent any
Landlord may assign its interest in the Leases pursuant to the terms thereof, the rights of such Landlord under this Guaranty may be assigned in whole or in part by such Landlord, its successors and assigns, whether directly or by way of a grant of
a security interest herein, without the consent of Guarantor. 
 24. Certificate of Confirmation.
Within ten (10) days after request by any Landlord, Guarantor shall deliver a certificate confirming that this Guaranty is in full force and effect and unamended (or, if amended, specifying such amendment), and whether, to the actual knowledge
of Guarantor, any default exists under any Lease or under this Guaranty. 
 25. Underlying Lease
Obligations in Full Force and Effect. Guarantor represents, warrants and agrees that: (i) the Lease Documents are valid, binding and in full force and effect; (ii) Obligor has no defenses, counterclaims, liens or claim of offset or
credit under any of the Lease Documents or against rents, or any other claims against any Landlord, including with respect to the condition of any Property or the surrounding area; (iii) no Obligor is the subject of any bankruptcy, insolvency
or similar proceeding in any federal, state or other court or jurisdiction; (iv) no Obligor has subleased any material portion of the Property or assigned any of its rights under any Lease Document; and (v) each party that is a signatory
to any of the Lease Documents has performed all of its duties and obligations thereunder and under any and all instruments or agreements executed or delivered in connection therewith. 
 26. Cross Default. It shall be an Event of Default if: (i) there occurs any default,
beyond the expiration of any applicable grace or cure periods, by any obligor under the primary credit facility under which Guarantor or any subsidiaries of Guarantor have obligations (as defined in 6th Amendment to Grand Court Guaranty) which, as of the date of this Guaranty is that certain Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement (the “Bank of America Credit Agreement”), dated as of November 15, 2006, among Brookdale Senior Living Inc. and the several lenders from time to time parties thereto, amended in 2008 to name Bank of America
as the administrative agent (Guarantor warrants as of the Effective Date that, except as disclosed in Guarantor’s public filings, such primary facility will be the only material credit facility under which Guarantor and its subsidiaries have
obligations), all amendments thereto, restatements thereof, replacements thereof (partial or total), refinancings thereof (partial or total) and/or substitutions therefore; (ii) Guarantor or any Subsidiary (including the Tenants) is in default,
beyond the expiration of any applicable grace or cure periods, under or breaches (w) any Tax Matters Agreement (as defined in the Grand Court Master Lease), (x) any Stock Purchase Agreement (as defined in the Grand Court Master Lease),
(y) any Agreement Regarding Leases, (z) any Lease Document, as the foregoing (w) through (z) may be amended, extended, replaced or restated, that in the aggregate result in obligations of $2,000,000 or more becoming due and
payable; or (iii) (a) Guarantor is in default under or breaches any other any contracts or other agreements (including guarantees and indemnities) that in the aggregate result in obligations of Guarantor of $10,000,000 or more becoming due
and payable, and (b) the obligees with respect thereto have taken actions to enforce (including initiating or commencing any action to enforce any remedies or to collect any amounts owing, but provided that “actions to enforce” shall
be deemed to exclude sending a default notice or notice of acceleration without any other action being taken) such obligations of Guarantor. Guarantor shall notify the Landlords within five Business Days of any of the events described in the
preceding sentence. 
  

 16 









 27. Changes to Properties and Leases. Guarantor hereby
acknowledges and agrees that Landlord or its Affiliates may, from time to time, without consent of, or notice to, Guarantor upon executing additional documents with Affiliates of Guarantor or modifying the then-existing Lease Documents, add, remove
or amend the properties, landlords, tenants and/or the Lease Documents contained on Exhibit A attached hereto, and this Guaranty shall automatically and with no further action be amended to include the properties, landlords, tenants or the
Lease Documents as so added, removed or amended. Guarantor agrees, upon receipt of request from any Landlord, to execute such further amendments, confirmations or other documents reasonably required by such Landlord to evidence the provisions of
this Section 27. 
 28. Replacement of Guarantor Officers. Guarantor must provide
prompt written notice to each Landlord of the replacement of any of the Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer, the Co-President, the Chief Operating Officer and the Chief Financial Officer and, upon request of any Landlord, arrange a meeting with
such officers of Guarantor as such Landlord shall request. No failure of Guarantor under this Section 28 shall constitute a default or Event of Default under this Guaranty. 
 29. New Leases. The term “Lease” as used in this Section 29 shall not include
(i) the Grand Court Master Lease or derivatives thereof, with respect to which the terms of Sections 39 and 40 shall continue to govern the separation and recombination of such Grand Court Master Lease or (ii) the Leases governing those
properties known as Grand Court Kansas City and Grand Court Farmington Hills. Each Landlord shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the effectiveness of any given Lease (such Lease, the “Original Lease”), by
written notice to Guarantor, to require the Guarantor to cause the Tenants (referred to in this Section 29 in the plural even though there may be only a single Tenant) under the Original Lease to execute an amendment to such Lease whereby one
or more Properties (individually, a “Transferred Property” or collectively, “Transferred Properties”) are separated and removed from such Lease, and simultaneously to execute a substitute lease or leases (the
“New Lease”) with respect to such Transferred Property(ies), subject to the terms and provisions of this Section 29; provided that such New Lease may not include Properties that were not governed by the Original Lease
(including successors to, and predecessors of, the Original Lease). For purposes of this Section 29, the Leases identified on Exhibit A as the “Alterra Leases” shall be treated as a single Original Lease, such that, for
example, the Transferred Properties from each Alterra Lease could be subject to a single New Lease. Guarantor shall also cause the affiliates of the Tenants of the Original Lease to execute and enter into such other agreements and instruments as are
contemplated by this Section 29. 
 29.1. New Lease. The New Lease shall be effective
as of the date specified in Section 29.5 below (the “Property Transfer Date”), and shall be in the same form and substance as the Original Lease, but with conforming changes to reflect a different set of Properties. Such
conforming changes shall include, for example, the following changes to the Original Lease: 
 29.1.1.
Fixed Rent. The initial “Fixed Rent” (including Base Rent or other comparable term) for such Transferred Property shall be an amount equal to the allocated rent for such Transferred Property in effect under the Original
Lease immediately prior to the Property Transfer Date. Any rental escalations required under the Original Lease shall be made for each Transferred Property under the New Lease on the same date and in the same manner as is required under the Original
Lease, in the full amount required as if such Transferred Property had been under the New Lease for a full year, notwithstanding that the period from the Property Transfer Date to the rent escalation date for each Transferred Property may be less
than one full year. 
  

 17 









 29.1.2. Other Value. Any terms, definitions or amounts or
provisions linked under the Original Lease to the value of the Transferred Properties, rent (“Allocated Rent”) allocable to the Transferred Properties, or that allocates rent among the Transferred Properties, shall be incorporated
into the New Lease with any necessary adjustments to reflect that the New Lease includes only the Transferred Properties. 
 29.1.3. Liabilities and Obligations. The New Lease shall provide that each Tenant under the New Lease shall be responsible for the payment, performance and satisfaction of all duties,
obligations and liabilities arising under the Original Lease, insofar as they relate to the Transferred Premises, that were not paid, performed and satisfied in full prior to the commencement date of the New Lease (and the Tenants under the Original
Lease shall also be responsible for the payment, performance and satisfaction of the aforesaid duties, obligations and liabilities not paid, performed and satisfied in full prior to the commencement date of such New Lease), and shall further provide
that the Tenants under the Original Lease shall not be responsible under the Original Lease for the payment, performance or satisfaction of any duties, obligations and liabilities of the Tenants under the New Lease arising after the Property
Transfer Date. 
 29.1.4. Modification of Certain Provisions. At the election of Landlord, any or
all provisions pertaining to the REIT status of Ventas, Inc. or other entity in Landlord’s organizational structure shall not be included in the New Lease. In addition, Landlord may delete and eliminate from such New Lease such provisions from
the Original Lease as it reasonably determines to be required, and make such other conforming changes, based on the later date of the New Lease (including changed circumstances such as a different ownership structure), provided such deletions,
eliminations and conforming changes do not materially alter the terms under which the Tenant leases the Transferred Property as set forth in the Original Lease immediately prior to the Property Transfer Date. 
 29.1.5. Security Deposit; Escrow Deposits. The New Lease shall contemplate security deposits and escrow
deposits in the same manner or fashion as contemplated by the Original Lease, and such security deposits and escrows shall continue to secure all of the obligations that security deposits and escrows secure under the Original Lease to the extent
permitted by any applicable lender. Any cash deposit requirements shall initially be funded by Landlord, on a proportional basis, from the security deposit and the escrow accounts held by Landlord under the Original Lease. Alternatively, if security
deposits under the Original Lease were in the form of letters of credit, then Tenants shall cause new letters of credit to be issued for any deposits required under the New Lease by delivering a letter of credit to Landlord and Landlord and Tenant
shall cooperate to enable Tenants to substitute new letters of credit in amounts reduced by the amount of the corresponding letters of credit under the New Lease. 
  

 18 









 29.1.6. Recombination. The New Lease will include provisions
to allow for recombination of the Original Lease with the New Lease at Landlord’s discretion provided such recombination shall (i) not involve the combination of the New Lease with leases other than the Original Lease (including its
predecessors and successors) or (ii) result in the combination of any properties other than those at any time subject to the Original Lease (including its predecessors and successors) and such recombination shall be further subject to the
following: 
 29.1.6.1. The recombination of the New Lease and the Original Lease (whether documented as
an amendment to the Original Lease or as an amended and restated lease, the “Recombined Lease”) shall (i) be in the same form and substance as the Original Lease, but with conforming changes to reflect the Properties (the
“Recombined Properties”) subject thereto, (ii) combine all of the Fixed Rents payable with respect to the Recombined Properties (with any rental escalations to occur on the same dates and in the same manner as required under the New
Lease and the Original Lease), (iii) incorporate any terms, definitions, or amounts or provisions linked to the value of the Recombined Properties or Allocated Rent or that allocates rent among the Recombined Properties and/or any other
properties, (iv) reflect revisions consistent with Section 29.1.4, (v) require the Landlord and the Tenant to allocate security deposits and obtain letters of credit (or substitutions thereof) consistent with
Section 29.1.5 and (vi) such other provisions as are consistent with Sections 39.2.5 through 39.5 of the Grand Court Lease. 
 29.1.7. Limitation on Impact. As used herein, the term “Impacted Leases” shall mean, collectively, (a) any New Lease, (b) any Original Lease or any amendment to
(or amendment or restatement of) the Original Lease, (c) any Recombined Lease, (d) any amendment or reinstatement of any leases which remain in effect with respect to other properties after the Transferred Properties or any portion thereof
become Recombined Properties and (e) any documents or instruments related to or delivered in connection with the documents referenced in (a)–(d), including without limitation any ARLs. The terms and provisions of the Impacted Leases
pursuant to this Section 29 shall not result in (i) any material adverse effect on the rights or benefits of the Tenants and Tenant affiliated parties under the Impacted Leases, (ii) any material increase in any burdens or
obligations imposed on the Tenants and the Tenant affiliated parties under the Impacted Leases, (iii) any change in any economic terms, including financial or other covenants (including their application and measurement) relating to the
performance of any of the properties subject to the Impacted Leases, taken as a whole, or (iv) any reduction or elimination of any rights granted to the Tenants and Tenant affiliated parties under the Impacted Leases, with respect to any
proposed financing, including without limitation rights to a subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreement, if any. For avoidance of doubt, the parties specifically acknowledge and agree that in connection with any proposed New Lease or
proposed Recombined Lease, the factors set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be considered and applied not only to the proposed New Lease and the proposed Transferred Properties and the proposed Recombined Lease and the proposed
Recombined Properties but also the (i) Original Lease and any properties remaining subject thereto following execution of a proposed New Lease and (ii) the New Lease and any remaining properties subject thereto following execution of a
proposed Recombined Lease. 
  

 19 









 29.2. Amending Original Lease. Upon execution of such New
Lease, and effective as of the Property Transfer Date, the Original Lease shall be amended or amended and restated as follows: (i) the Transferred Property shall be excluded from the premises; (ii) Fixed Rent under the Original Lease shall
be reduced by the Allocated Rent allocable to the Transferred Property; (iii) the Allocated Rent shall be removed and such other conforming changes linked to the value of the Transferred Property shall be included; such other conforming changes
as are reasonably required by Landlord to reflect that Transferred Property is no longer being leased pursuant to the Original Lease shall be included; and (iv) to add provisions substantially similar to those set forth in Sections
29.1.6 and 29.1.7. Such amendments shall be reflected in a formal amendment to, or amendment and restatement of, the Original Lease, which shall be promptly executed by the Landlord and Tenants following or concurrent with entry into the
New Lease. 
 29.3. Guaranties. Any guarantor, including the Guarantor hereunder, of obligations of
Tenants and their affiliates’ under the Original Lease and related agreements (including agreements regarding leases) shall guaranty obligations of the Tenant and its affiliates under the New Lease and related agreements (including agreements
regarding leases) pursuant to a guaranty or guaranties in the same form and substance as the guaranties relating to the Original Lease and related agreements (or, at Landlord’s election, pursuant to ratifications or amendments to existing
guaranties), with such other conforming changes as are reasonably required by Landlord to reflect that the Transferred Property is no longer being leased pursuant to the Original Lease. 
 29.4. Agreements Regarding Leases. Any other agreements regarding leases (each an “ARL”)
relating to the Original Lease shall be amended as Landlord elects to either (i) add the New Lease and refer to the Original Lease as amended as contemplated in Section 29.2, or (ii) remove from its purview the Transferred
Property. If Landlord elects (ii), then Landlord may further elect that the provisions of the ARL shall either (a) be incorporated into the New Lease or (b) a new ARL may be entered into that has provisions substantially similar to the
ARL, but relates to a different group of properties that includes the Transferred Property. In each case the ARL amendment and new ARL shall be in form and substance substantially similar to the existing ARL, but with such conforming changes as
Landlord may reasonably require (subject to Section 29.1.7) so that the changes in structure of the agreements relating to the Lease and Original Lease, in the aggregate, produce a result as close as practicable to that which existed
under the existing ARL. Guarantor shall cause any of its affiliates that are parties to any such ARLs to execute and enter into any such amendments. 
 29.5. Effective Date: Meaning of Tenants. Any New Lease, amendment to (or amendment and restatement of) the Original Lease and any other document effectuating the transactions contemplated
by this Section 29 shall be effective on the date when fully executed and delivered by the parties thereto. Landlord shall, and Guarantor shall cause Tenants and their Affiliates to, use reasonable and diligent efforts to complete,
execute and deliver all of the foregoing documents within 14 days following the notice given pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 29. As used in this Section 29, the “Tenants” under any Impacted
Lease shall mean and refer to (i) the Tenants as set forth on Exhibit A so long as they are tenants under Impacted Leases, together with (ii) any affiliates thereof that may from time to time be tenants under any Impacted Lease.

  

 20 









 29.6. Other Undertakings. Guarantor shall, and shall cause
Tenant and its other affiliates as necessary to, take such actions and execute and deliver such documents, including without limitation, the New Lease, amendment to (or amendment and restatement of) the Original Lease, new or amended memorandum(s)
of lease, guaranties, confirmations, ratifications and agreements regarding leases, amendments to ARLs, and any other documents and instruments as are reasonably necessary and appropriate to effectuate fully the provisions and intent of this
Section 29, and Landlord shall execute and deliver such new or amended memorandum(s) of lease, other documents and instruments as are reasonably necessary and appropriate to effectuate fully the provisions and intent of this
Section 29. 
 29.7. Costs. Landlord shall reimburse Tenants for their reasonable
out-of-pocket costs paid to comply with the review, execution and delivery of the documentation required by this Section 29 and which obligation shall be recited in all New Leases and Recombined Leases.
