C.

15046.4

	 	 	 
	





	
Exhibit 10.79.8










NOW, THEREFORE, taking into account the foregoing Recitals, and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree to amend the Master Lease in the following particulars only:




1.    Amendments to Lease. 




(a)    As of the Effective Date, Parcel 1 on Exhibit A attached hereto is hereby added to Exhibit A of the Master Lease. Effective as of the date on which NHP acquires fee title to the Amenities Property, Parcel 2 on Exhibit A shall be added to Exhibit A of the Master Lease without further amendment thereto. 




(b)    Exhibit G to the Master Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and substituted with Exhibit G attached hereto.




(c)    Schedules 1A, 1B and 2 to the Master Lease are hereby deleted in their entirety and substituted with Schedules 1A, 1B and 2 attached hereto.




(d)    The first sentence of Section 2.2(a) of the Master Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following substituted therefor:




"As used herein, "Landlord’s Investment" in the Premises shall mean Ninety Million Seven Hundred Ninety-Six Thousand One Hundred Thirty-Six Dollars ($90,796,136), plus any amount for Alterations advanced by Landlord pursuant to Section 8.4, plus any other amount that, in accordance with any other term or provision of this Master Lease, is to be added to Landlord’s Investment, and minus any net award paid to Landlord for a Partial Taking or Complete Taking pursuant to Section 18, minus any insurance proceeds paid to and retained by Landlord as a result of any casualty, minus any other net capital proceeds received by Landlord for any portion of the Premises sold or conveyed, as to any portion of the Premises for which this Master Lease is terminated during the Term in accordance with its terms, and minus any other amount that, in accordance with any other term of provision of this Master Lease, is to be subtracted from Landlord’s Investment."




2.    Lease of Amenities Property. As of the Effective Date, Emeritus, as tenant, and Alterra Healthcare Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Alterra"), as landlord, are entering into that certain Lease Agreement (the "AP Lease") pursuant to which the Amenities Property shall be leased by Emeritus from Alterra. NHP acknowledges and agrees that given the limited remedies available to Alterra as a result of a default by Emeritus under the AP Lease, such a default shall only be a default under the Master Lease if, as a result thereof, Alterra fails to convey to NHP title to the Amenities Property. Emeritus further agrees that the AP Lease shall terminate and be of no further force or effect at such time as the fee title to the Amenities Property has been conveyed to NHP. As 


	 





15046.4

	 	 	 
	





	
Exhibit 10.79.8




contemplated under the provisions of Section 14 of the AP Lease, Emeritus hereby assigns and transfers to NHP, and hereby grants to NHP a security interest in, all of Emeritus’ right, title and interest in, and benefits under, the AP Lease, as additional security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations under the Master Lease. Notwithstanding this collateral assignment, until the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Emeritus may exercise all of its rights under the AP Lease. Emeritus shall fully perform all of its obligations under the AP Lease and give prompt written notice to NHP of any notice received by Emeritus under the AP Lease, together with a complete copy of any such notice. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, NHP shall have the right to exercise all rights and benefits held by Emeritus under the AP Lease, provided, however, NHP does not assume any obligations or duties of Emeritus under the AP Lease unless and until such time as NHP exercises its rights hereunder.




3.    Escrow Agreement. Emeritus, Alterra, NHP and Chicago Title Insurance Company have entered into that certain Escrow Agreement of even date herewith (the "Escrow Agreement") relating to the Amenities Property. Emeritus shall fully perform all of its obligations under the Escrow Agreement and agrees that the failure by Emeritus to comply with its obligations under the Escrow Agreement which results in a failure by Alterra to convey to NHP title to the Amenities Property shall constitute an Event of Default under the Master Lease.




4.    Reaffirmation of Obligations. Notwithstanding the modifications to the Master Lease contained herein, Tenant hereby acknowledges and reaffirms its obligations under the Master Lease, as hereby amended, and all other documents executed by Tenant in connection therewith.




5.    Interpretation; Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed as a whole and in accordance with its fair meaning. Headings are for convenience only and shall not be used in construing meaning. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without regard to rules concerning the choice of law. 




6.    Further Instruments. Each party will, whenever and as often as it shall be reasonably requested so to do by another party, cause to be executed, acknowledged or delivered, any and all such further instruments and documents as may be necessary or proper, in the reasonable opinion of the requesting party, in order to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement.




7.    Incorporation of Recitals. The Recitals to this Agreement are incorporated hereby by reference.




8.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which executed counterparts shall together constitute a single document. Signature pages may be detached from the counterparts and attached to a single copy of this document to physically form one document.




9.    Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any dispute or litigation concerning the enforcement, validity or interpretation of this Agreement, or any part thereof, the losing party shall


	 





15046.4

	 	 	 
	





	
Exhibit 10.79.8




pay all costs, charges, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) paid or incurred by the prevailing party, regardless of whether any action or proceeding is initiated relative to such dispute and regardless of whether any such litigation is prosecuted to judgment.




10.    Effect of Amendment. Except as specifically amended pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Master Lease shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect. In the event of any inconsistencies between the terms of this Agreement and any terms of the Master Lease, the terms of this Agreement shall govern and prevail.




11.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matters contained herein. Any oral representations or statements concerning the subject matters herein shall be of no force or effect.
