(a) The Option may be exercised by Purchaser on or after April 11, 2011 and shall continue until such date that Seller satisfies the terms of the Loan (as the same may be modified, extended, and refinanced). Purchaser shall exercise the Option by delivering written notice to Seller identifying which Parcel(s) of Property Purchaser is purchasing, and the Closing Date (the “Option Notice”). Upon exercise of the Option by Purchaser, this Agreement shall immediately operate as a real estate sale contract on the terms herein set forth with respect to the applicable Parcel(s) of Property. In the event Purchaser chooses not to exercise the Option on all of the Property, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to all Parcels of Property not purchased, and the Option shall continue.

 

(b) The Ground Lease Option may be exercised by Purchaser on or after April 11, 2011 until such date that Seller satisfies the terms of the Loan (as the same may be modified, extended, and refinanced). Purchaser shall exercise the Ground Lease Option by delivering written notice to Seller identifying the Ground Lease(s) of which Purchaser is taking assignment (the “Ground Lease Option Notice”). Upon exercise of the Ground Lease Option Notice, Seller shall use best efforts to obtain the Required Consents, and the Parties shall proceed to assignment of the applicable Ground Lease(s) on the terms herein set forth. In the event Purchaser chooses not to exercise the Ground Lease Option on both Ground Leases, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to the Ground Lease not assigned, and the Ground Lease Option shall continue.

 

2.3 Purchase Price.

 

(a) The Minimum Purchase Price for each Parcel of Property shall be as follows:

 

	
(i) Snow Creek:
    	
 
    	
$
    	
570,400.00
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
(ii) Boston Mills/Brandywine:
    	
 
    	
$
    	
15,354,300.00
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
(iii) Paoli Peaks (fee interest):
    	
 
    	
$
    	
2,374,600.00
    	
 
    


 

Subject to Subsection 2.3(c), below, Purchaser shall have the right and option to purchase all of the Property, or any number of the Parcels of Property at the foregoing prices.

 

(b) The Minimum Purchase Price for the Ground Lease assignments shall be as follows:

(i) Jack Frost/Big Boulder:
    	
 
    	
$
    	
9,405,400.00
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
(ii) Paoli Peaks:
    	
 
    	
$
    	
1.00
    	
 
    


 

Subject to Subsection 2.3(c), below, Purchaser shall have the right and option to take assignment of all the Ground Leases, or any of them, for the foregoing prices.

 

(c) Unless otherwise mutually agreed to by Seller and Purchaser, the Minimum Purchase Price shall be increased if, at the time Lender delivers an Option Notice or Ground Lease Option Notice, the previous fiscal year’s Debt Service Coverage Ratio for an applicable Parcel of Property exceeds 2.0: 1.0. Such increase shall be calculated by multiplying the previous fiscal year’s EBITDAR attributable to the applicable Parcel by fifty percent (50%), and dividing the product by the Initial Interest Rate.

 

For example. If the Minimum Purchase Price is $5,000,000, the Initial Interest Rate is 9.25%, and EBITDAR for the prior fiscal year for the applicable Parcel is $1,500,000, then the Purchase Price shall be increased to $8,108,108, illustrated as follows:

 

$ 1,500,000 x 50 % = $ 750,000

$ 750,000 / 9.25 % = $ 8,108,108

 

2.4 Option Consideration. Concurrently herewith, Purchaser has paid to Seller the sum of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) for and in consideration of the granting of the Option and the Ground Lease Option, which consideration is non-refundable and independent of the Purchase Price.

 

2.5 Release of Hidden Valley. Lender shall have no option to purchase the Hidden Valley Parcel under this Agreement. Borrower shall have the option to cause Lender to release the Hidden Valley Parcel as security for the Loan by tendering a release price in an amount such that the release price reduces Borrower’s aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the other Parcels of Property to 2.0:1.0 or better. Such release price shall be a minimum of $3,295,300. Any excess payment over such minimum release price shall be applied to outstanding principal of the Loan, or as otherwise mutually agreed to by Borrower and Lender.

28











 

Section 11.17, the terms Business Agreements, Warranties, Permits and Engineering Documents shall include all agreements, documents and instruments included within such definitions, whether or not the same are assignable by Seller) as Purchaser and Seller shall mutually agree upon. If and to the extent that any of the Business Agreements, Warranties, Permits and Engineering Documents are not assignable without the consent or approval of a third party, and either (a) Purchaser does not request that Seller obtain such approval, or (b) Seller is unable to obtain such approval following Purchaser’s request that Seller obtain such consent or approval, then, in either of such cases, and subject to the Purchaser’s rights as hereinafter provided, Seller hereby agrees and acknowledges that it will, from and after Closing, own and hold such Business Agreements, Warranties, Permits and Engineering Documents as agent on behalf of and for the benefit of Purchaser, and Seller will from time to time execute such documents as Purchaser shall reasonably require to evidence that Seller own and hold such Business Agreements, Warranties, Permits and Engineering Documents as agent on behalf of and for the benefit of Purchaser.

If any default of an assignee is incapable of being cured by the Original Tenant, then notwithstanding the failure to cure same, the Original Tenant shall have the foregoing option to enter into a new lease. Such new lease shall commence on the date of termination of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord delivers to the Original Tenant, together with Landlord’s notice, a release as to all liability under this Lease as theretofore amended, the Original Tenant shall not have the foregoing option.

In no event shall Landlord be obligated to reimburse or compensate Tenant or any other person or entity for any such additions, alterations or improvements to the Leased premises, and Tenant hereby waives any right to reimbursement or compensation for any such additions, alterations or improvements.

 

(D) Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything set forth in paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) of this Article to the contrary, the obligations Tenant set forth therein shall be subject to the provisions set forth in the Articles captioned “Damage Clause” and “Condemnation.”

 

14. Damage Clause.

 

(A) Damage. If the Facility shall be damaged or destroyed by fire, casualty or any cause whatsoever, either in whole or in part, and Tenant does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (B) hereof, Tenant shall with due diligence remove any resulting debris and fully repair and/or restore and rebuild in their entirety the damaged or destroyed structures and other improvements, including any improvements or betterments made by Landlord or Tenant. Subject to Paragraph 15(A) hereof, Landlord shall make all insurance proceeds available as a result of such fire, casualty or other destruction to Tenant for restoration. Tenant shall submit in advance to Landlord plans and specifications for rebuilding/restoring the structures and other improvements and shall obtain Landlord’s consent (which shall not be

 

G-14











 

unreasonably withheld or delayed) to any material deviation from such plans and specifications. Until the earlier of (i) the date 90 days after the date the Facility are repaired, rebuilt and put in good and tenantable order, or (ii) the date Tenant reopens the portions(s) of the Facility so damaged or destroyed, the Annual Fixed Rent and other charges hereby reserved, or a fair and just proportion thereof according to the nature and extent of the damage sustained, shall be abated, but only to the extent of any rental interruption insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord.

 

(B) Right to Terminate on Certain Damage. If during the final three (3) years of the Term, the Facility is damaged or destroyed by fire, casualty or any cause whatsoever to such an extent that all or a portion thereof is rendered unsuitable for use as a ski resort and the cost of restoration would exceed 50% of the amount it would cost to replace the Facility in its entirety at the time such damage or destruction occurred, and if Tenant has complied with its insurance obligations under this Lease (including maintaining insurance against loss of rents by Landlord), Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord given within thirty (30) days after such damage or destruction. If Tenant elects to terminate this Lease as provided herein, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as a condition upon the effectiveness of such termination, within sixty (60) days after such notice, an amount equal to all insurance proceeds for such damage or destruction (except any for Tenant’s Property) together with an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of insurance proceeds turned over to Landlord and the net book value of The Facility as accurately reflected in Landlord’s financial records as of the date of such damage or destruction. Upon the giving of such notice by Tenant to terminate, and Tenant’s payment of all amounts provided for herein, this Lease shall automatically terminate and the Annual Fixed Rental and other charges hereunder shall be equitably adjusted as of the date of such destruction.

 

(C) Uninsured Damage. If, at any time during the term hereof, all or a portion of the Facility shall be damaged or destroyed by a casualty not insurable under the insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease, Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord given within 30 days after such damage or destruction. If Tenant elects to terminate this Lease as provided herein, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as a condition upon the effectiveness of such termination, within 60 days after such notice, an amount equal to the net book value of the Facility as accurately reflected in Landlord’s financial records as of the date of such damage or destruction. Upon the giving of such notice by Tenant to terminate, and Tenant’s payment of all amounts provided for herein, this Lease shall automatically terminate and the Annual Fixed Rental and other charges hereunder shall be equitably adjusted as of the date of such destruction.

 

(D) Effect of Lease Termination. If Tenant so elects to terminate this Lease as provided in paragraphs (B) or (C) of this Article, Landlord shall nevertheless have the option of negating such notice of termination by giving notice to Tenant of such negation, which notice, if given at all, shall be given within 60 days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice of termination. If Landlord elects to negate Tenant’s notice of termination, then (i) this Lease shall not terminate, and (ii) Landlord shall, with due diligence, repair and restore the Facility in its entirety at Landlord’s sole cost and expense. If Landlord elects to negate Tenant’s notice of termination as provided herein, then all insurance proceeds payable as a result of such damage or destruction (except for proceeds payable with respect to Tenant’s Property) shall belong to

 

G-15











 

Landlord, and Tenant’s Annual Fixed Rent shall abate (i) during the period of restoration, to the extent that Landlord receives compensation for lost rents by policies of insurance described in Section 15(E); and (ii) following restoration, in proportion to the portion of the Facility that is rendered unusable by reason of the casualty and not restored by Landlord.

 

(E) Rights to Insurance Proceeds. If this Lease is terminated as provided in this Article following damage to or destruction of the Facility and/or Tenant’s property, the proceeds of all hazard insurance on the Facility which is maintained by Tenant or Landlord pursuant to the Article captioned “Insurance, Indemnity, Waiver of Subrogation,” etc. shall belong to Landlord, except insurance proceeds in respect of Tenant’s Property, which shall belong to Tenant.

 

(F) [Effect of Prime Lease. If any provision of paragraphs (A) through (E) of this Article shall conflict with the Prime Lease, the terms and provisions of the Prime Lease shall control. If and to the extent Landlord is obligated to rebuild, restore or repair the Leased Premises under the terms of the Prime Lease, Tenant shall be obligated to rebuild, restore and repair the same, and in the event of any conflict between the terms, conditions or provisions of this Sublease and the terms of the Prime lease with respect to the funding of such rebuilding, repair or restoration, Subtenant shall be obliged to comply with the terms, conditions and provisions imposed upon Prime Lessor.]

 

15. Insurance, Indemnity, Waiver of Subrogation and Fire Protection.

 

(A) Casualty Policy. During the term hereof, Tenant shall at its expense except as provided below, keep the Leased Premises insured in the name of Landlord and Tenant (as their interests may appear with each as named or an additional insured or loss payee as applicable to provide each with the best position) against damage or destruction by fire and the perils commonly covered under a special form policy in an aggregate amount equal to the full replacement cost thereof (without deduction for physical depreciation), and shall have deductibles no greater than Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000) (with higher deductibles for wind and earthquake coverage as the applicable insurer may require). Such policy also shall cover floods, earthquake and other similar hazards as may be customary for comparable properties in the area, and such other “additional coverage” insurance as Landlord or any holder of a Mortgage, on the Leased Premises may reasonably require, which at the time is usual and commonly obtained in connection with properties similar in type of building size and use to the Facility and located in the geographic area where the Leased Premises are located. Tenant shall be responsible for determining that the amount of property damage coverage insurance maintained complies with the requirements of this Lease. The proceeds of such insurance in case of loss or damage shall be held in trust and applied on account of the obligation of Tenant to repair and/or rebuild the Leased Premises pursuant to the Article captioned “Damage Clause” to the extent that such proceeds are required for such purpose [, subject to any conflicting provision in the Prime Lease]. The insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this paragraph and paragraph (C) of this Article may be covered under a so-called “blanket” policy covering other operations of Tenant and Affiliates, so long as the amount of coverage available under said “blanket” policy with respect to the Leased Premises, or Tenant’s liability under this Lease, at all times meets the requirements set forth in this Lease, and (ii) shall be evidenced by a certificate of insurance (such insurance certificate with respect to property

 

G-16











 

insurance shall be issued on ACORD 27 or equivalent) from Tenant’s insurer, authorized agent or broker. Upon request, Tenant shall name the holder of any Mortgage on the Leased Premises pursuant to a standard mortgagee, additional insured or loss payee clause as such holder shall elect with respect to the foregoing property insurance, provided such holder agrees with Tenant in writing to disburse such insurance proceeds to Tenant for, and periodically during the course of, repair and restoration of the Facility as set forth in this Lease. Any such insurance proceeds not required for the repair and restoration of the Leased Premises shall be divided equally between Tenant and Landlord.

 

(B) DIC Policy. If required by Landlord’s lender or the holder of a Mortgage during the term hereof, Tenant shall, at its expense, keep the Leased Premises insured in the name of Landlord and Tenant (as their interests may appear with each as named or an additional insured or loss payee as applicable to provide each with the best position) against all risks of direct physical loss or damage, except those risks excluded under Tenant’s insurance required under paragraph (A) of this Article, under a so-called difference in conditions policy (“DIC Policy”) in the amount of 100% of the replacement cost thereof. The proceeds of such insurance in case of loss or damage shall be held in trust and applied on account of the obligation of Tenant to repair and/or rebuild the Leased Premises pursuant to the Article captioned “Damage Clause” to the extent that such proceeds are required for such purpose. The insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this paragraph shall be evidenced by a certificate of insurance (such insurance certificate with respect to property insurance shall be issued on ACORD 27) from Tenant’s insurer, authorized agent or broker. Upon request, Landlord may name the holder of any Mortgage on the Leased Premises pursuant to a standard mortgagee clause, additional insured or loss payee as such holder shall elect with respect to the foregoing property insurance provided such holder agrees in writing to disburse such insurance proceeds to Tenant for, and periodically during the course of, repair and restoration of the Leased Premises as set forth in this Lease. Any such insurance related proceeds not required for the repair and restoration of the Facility shall belong to Landlord.

 

(C) Liability Insurance; Tenant Negligence. Tenant will, subject to the provisions of paragraph (F) of this Article, and subject to the provisions of paragraph (E) of the Article captioned “Governmental Compliance,” indemnify and save harmless Landlord, its trustees, directors, officers, agents and servants, from and against any and all claims, actions, liability and expense: (i) arising from or out of any occurrence in, upon or at the Facility, the Leased Premises, or the occupancy or use by Tenant of the Facility, the Leased Premises or any part thereof, except to the extent the same is caused by the willful or grossly negligent act or omission of Landlord; or (ii) occasioned wholly or in part by any negligent act or omission of Tenant, its agents, employees, servants, subtenants, lessees or concessionaires. If any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord, its officers, agents or servants by reason of any of the aforementioned causes, Tenant, upon receiving notice thereof from Landlord, agrees to defend such action or proceeding by adequate counsel at its own expense. Tenant agrees to insure the foregoing obligation by contractual endorsement under a commercial general public liability policy (including personal injury and property damage) to be maintained by Tenant with combined single limits of not less than $5,000,000.00 aggregate per location. Tenant shall cause Landlord to be named as an additional insured on all policies of liability insurance maintained by Tenant (including excess liability and umbrella policies) with respect to the Leased Premises.

(F) Release: Waiver of Subrogation. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, it is agreed that Tenant hereby releases Landlord from any liability which the Landlord would, but for this paragraph, have had to Tenant during the term of this Lease resulting from any accident or occurrence or casualty (i) which is covered by Tenant’s required insurance hereunder, or (ii) which is or would be covered by a fire or “all risk” property insurance policy in use in the state in which the Leased Premises is located, whether or not Tenant is actually maintaining such an insurance policy, or (iii) which is covered by any other casualty or property damage insurance being carried by Tenant at the time of such occurrence, which casualty may have resulted in whole or in part from any act or neglect of Landlord, its officers, agents or employees; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the releases hereinabove set forth shall become inoperative and null and void if Tenant wishes to place such insurance with an insurance company which (y) takes the position that the existence of such release vitiates or would substantially adversely affect any policy so insuring the Releasing Party and notice thereof is given to Landlord, or (z) requires the payment of a higher premium by reason of the existence of such release, unless in the latter case Landlord within 20 days after notice thereof from the Tenant pays such increase in premium. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tenant agrees and acknowledges that Landlord shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss, damage or injury to Tenant’s Property which is located in, on or about the Leased Premises at any time and from time to time, regardless of the cause of such loss, damage or injury, and that all of Tenant’s Property is located in, on or about the Leased Premises at Tenant’s sole risk. Tenant hereby releases Landlord from any and all claims with respect to loss, damage or injury to Tenant’s Property located in, on or about the Leased Premises, regardless of the cause of such loss, damage or injury.

 

(G) General. All policies of insurance required pursuant to this Article shall be issued by companies approved by Landlord, and licensed to do business in the state where the Leased Premises is located. Furthermore, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of all insurance contracts that is required any such insurance company shall have (i) a claims paying ability rating of “AA” or better by Standard & Poor’s (other than the issuer of any policy for earthquake insurance, which issuer shall have a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by Standard & Poor’s; (ii) shall include effective waivers by the insurer of all claims for insurance premiums against all loss payees, additional loss payee, additional insured or named insured; (iii) shall contain such provisions as Landlord deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interest including any endorsements providing that Tenant, Landlord nor any other party shall be

a co-insurer under said policies and that no modification, reduction, cancellation or termination in amount of, or material change (other than an increase) in, coverage of any of the policies required hereby shall be effective until at least thirty (30) days after receipt by each named insured, additional insured and loss payee of written notice thereof or ten (10) days after receipt of such notice with respect to nonpayment of premium; (iv) shall permit Landlord to pay the premiums and continue any insurance upon failure of Tenant to pay premiums when due; and (v) shall provide that the insurance shall not be impaired or invalidated by virtue of (A) any act, failure to act, negligence of, or violation of declarations, warranties or conditions contained in such policy by Tenant, Landlord or any other named insured, additional insured or loss payee, except for the willful misconduct of Landlord knowingly in violation of the conditions of such policy or (B) the occupation, use, operation or maintenance of the Leased Premises for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of the policy.

 

(H) [Effect of Prime Lease. Subtenant shall furnish all insurance required to be furnished by Sublandlord as tenant under the Prime Lease. In the event of a conflict between the requirements of Prime Lessor and the requirements of Subtenant under this Sublease, the higher limits or the more stringent terms, conditions or provisions shall control.]

 

16. Indemnification Generally. Tenant agrees to indemnify and save harmless, Landlord, its trustee, directors, officers, agents and servants from and against all liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) and all actual or consequential damages imposed upon or asserted against the Landlord, as owner of the Leased Premises [as tenant of the Leased Premises under the Prime Lease], including, without limitation, any liabilities, costs and expenses and actual or consequential damages imposed upon or asserted against Landlord, on account of (i) any use, misuse, non-use, condition, maintenance or repair by Tenant of the Leased Premises, (ii) any impositions which are the obligation of Tenant to pay pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Lease [or the Prime Lease], (iii) any failure on the part of Tenant to perform or comply with any other of the terms of this Lease or any sublease, (iv) any liability Landlord may incur or suffer as a result of any environmental laws or the ADA affecting the Leased Premises, [(v) any violation of the Prime Lease,] and (vi) accident, injury to or death of any person or damage to property on or about the Leased Premises. If at any time any claims, costs, demands, losses or liabilities are asserted against Landlord by reason of any of the matters as to which Tenant indemnifies Landlord hereunder, Tenant will, upon notice from Landlord, defend any such claims, costs, demands, losses or liabilities at Tenant’s sole cost and expense by counsel selected by Tenant and reasonably acceptable to Landlord.

G-19











 

for any such alterations, changes, improvements or additions made by Tenant, and Tenant hereby waives all right to any such compensation or reimbursement.

 

(B) No Tenant Liens. Tenant shall not permit any mechanic’s, materialman’s or other similar lien to be foreclosed against the Leased Premises by reason of work, labor, services or materials performed by or furnished to Tenant or anyone holding any part of the Leased Premises under Tenant. If any such lien shall at any time be filed, Tenant may contest the same in good faith but Tenant shall, prior to foreclosure thereof, cause such lien to be released of record by payment, bond, order of a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as a consent on the part of Landlord to subject Landlord’s estate in the Leased Premises to any lien or liability under the lien laws of the state in which the Leased Premises are located. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any mechanics’, materialmen’s or other similar lien is filed against the Leased Premises, and the amount of such lien claim exceeds $100,000, then Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after the filing thereof, provide to Landlord a bond in the amount of 110% of the amount of such lien claim, or other security satisfactory to Landlord, protecting Landlord from loss or liability by reason of such lien. Tenant hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims, costs, demands, losses or liabilities (including attorneys’ fees) which Landlord may suffer or incur by reason of any such mechanics’, materialmen’s or other similar lien.

 

(C) Landlord Elective Improvements.

Tenant’s Signs shall advertise Tenant’s business in the Facility and shall be constructed and maintained in good repair at Tenant’s expense. Tenant shall pay the cost of electricity consumed in illuminating Tenant’s Signs.

20. Condemnation.

 

(A) In General. If any material part of the Leased Premises (meaning any part of the Facility) shall be taken in any proceeding by any Governmental Authority by condemnation or otherwise, or be acquired for public or quasi-public purposes, or be conveyed under threat of such taking or acquiring (which Landlord shall not do without Tenant’s prior written consent), and Tenant reasonably determines that the remaining portion will not permit Tenant to operate its business on the Leased Premises, [then if and to the extent Sublandlord has the right to terminate the Prime Lease and subject to the terms or provisions of the Prime Lease and any obligation to provide notice thereunder,] Tenant shall have the option of terminating this Lease by notice to Landlord of its election to do so given on or before the date which is thirty (30) days after Tenant shall have been deprived of possession of the condemned property, and upon the giving of such notice, this Lease shall automatically terminate and the Annual Fixed Rent and other charges hereunder shall be adjusted as of the date of such notice. In the event a material part of the Leased Premises (meaning any part of the Facility) is so taken and Tenant elects not to terminate this Lease, then Tenant shall, to the extent and making use of the condemnation award, restore the Facility to a complete unit as similar as reasonably possible in design, character and quality to the building which existed before such taking. In the event the Facility is partially taken and this Lease is not terminated, there shall be no reduction or adjustment in the Annual Fixed Rent and other charges thereafter payable hereunder. Any restoration work to be performed pursuant to this paragraph shall be completed in accordance with plans and specifications which shall have been approved by Landlord and Tenant, such approvals not to be unreasonably withheld. In any such proceeding whereby all or part of the Leased Premises is taken, and Tenant elects to terminate this Lease, [subject to the provisions of the Prime Lease,] each party shall be free to make claim against the condemning authority for the amount of the actual provable damage done to each of them by such proceeding. If the condemning authority shall refuse to permit separate claims to be made, then [subject to the provisions of the Prime Lease,] Landlord shall prosecute with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Tenant the claims of both Landlord and Tenant, and the proceeds of the award, after payment of Landlord’s reasonable costs incurred, shall be divided between Landlord and Tenant in a fair and equitable manner; provided, however, in the event of a condemnation which results in Tenant’s election to terminate this Lease Tenant shall be entitled to its portion of the condemnation award only so long as the amount of the award paid to the Landlord is equal to the net book value of the property taken, as reflected on the Landlord’s financial statements on the date of the condemnation.

 

(B) Temporary Taking Awards. If by reason of a taking Tenant shall be temporarily deprived in whole or in part of the use of the Facility or any part thereof, the entire award made as compensation therefor shall belong to Tenant, and there shall be no abatement of the Annual Fixed Rent payable hereunder.

 

(C) No Taking by Landlord Action. Landlord shall not initiate or take any action seeking a public or private taking of the Facility or of any part of the Leased Premises or any applicable Leased Premises.

(A) Landlord will not approve or agree to any amendment of the Restrictive Agreements which materially derogates the rights granted to Landlord thereunder without Tenant’s prior consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

(B) Tenant agrees during the Term of this Lease to comply with and promptly perform each and all of the terms and provisions of all Restrictive Agreements insofar as they relate to the Facility and the Leased Premises. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant agrees to pay any assessments, costs, common area maintenance and operating charges, lighting charges, all common area cost contributions, and any and all other amounts that Landlord or the owner of the Leased Premises would otherwise be obligated to pay under the Restrictive Agreements.

 

(C) Landlord agrees to fully cooperate with Tenant in the exercise of any rights or remedies pursuant to such Restrictive Agreements the exercise of which Tenant believes is necessary or prudent with respect to the Leased Premises. Tenant hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims, costs, demands, losses or liabilities (including attorneys’ fees) which Landlord may suffer or incur by reason of any failure by Tenant to pay and perform all of the terms of, or any violation of or noncompliance with any of the covenants and agreements contained in, the Restrictive Agreements, or any of them, regardless of whether such provisions are binding upon the Leased Premises or the holder of the tenant’s interest in this Lease. If at any time any claims, costs, demands, losses or liabilities are asserted against Landlord by reason of any failure by Tenant to pay and perform all of the terms of, or any violation of or noncompliance with any of the covenants and agreements contained in, the Restrictive Agreements, regardless of whether such provisions are binding upon the holder of the tenant’s interest in this Lease or the Leased Premises, Tenant will, upon notice from Landlord, defend any such claims, costs, demands, losses or liabilities at Tenant’s sole cost and expense by counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord. Landlord will promptly provide to Tenant a copy of any notice received by Landlord in connection with any Restrictive Agreement.

 

22. Tenant’s Covenant to Operate.

 

(A) In General. So long as Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease, Tenant will, except when prevented from so doing by Force Majeure or by other causes beyond its reasonable control (including the unavailability of film) and subject to the provisions of the Articles captioned “Subletting and Assigning,” “Damage Clause,” and “Condemnation” during the Term of this Lease, operate or cause to be operated the Permitted Use in the Facility (such covenant being herein called “Tenant’s Operating Covenant”).

 

(B) Tenant’s Right to Control Operations. Nothing contained in this Lease or in rules or regulations (if any) promulgated by Landlord shall be deemed in any way to regulate the manner of operation by Tenant of its business in the Facility and/or the hours and/or days of such operation, provided that Tenant agrees that it will operate its business in the Facility during at least the same general hours and days of operation as other ski resort [and golf course/waterpark] operators operating other similar facilities in the vicinity.

23. Estoppel Certificate; Attornment and Priority of Lease; Subordination.

 

(A) Estoppel Certificate. Tenant agrees, within ten (10) days after request by Landlord, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to and in favor of the proposed holder of any Mortgage or purchaser of the Leased Premises, an estoppel certificate in such form as Landlord may reasonably approve, but stating no less than: (i) whether this Lease is in full force and effect; (ii) whether this Lease has been modified or amended and, if so, identifying and describing any such modification or amendment; (iii) the date to which rent and any other charges have been paid; and (iv) whether Tenant knows of any default on the part of Landlord or has any claim against Landlord and, if so, specifying the nature of such default or claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that it shall not be reasonable for Landlord to require an estoppel certificate that modifies the terms of this Lease.

 

(B) Attornment by Tenant. Tenant shall, in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of, or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under, any Mortgage prior in lien to this Lease made by Landlord, attorn to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale and recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease, provided such purchaser assumes Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, in a written agreement in recordable form and with substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant, containing a covenant binding upon such purchaser to the effect that as long as Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease, this Lease shall not be terminated or modified in any respect whatsoever, nor shall the rights of Tenant hereunder or its occupancy of the Leased Premises be affected in any way by reason of such Mortgage or any foreclosure action or other proceeding that may be instituted in connection therewith, and that, except to the extent that the holder of such Mortgage is required to do so to effectively foreclose such Mortgage, Tenant shall not be named as a defendant in any such foreclosure action or other proceeding.

 

(C) Subordination/Non-Disturbance. Upon request of the holder of any Mortgage, Tenant will subordinate its rights under this Lease to the lien thereof and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security thereof, and Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver an instrument effecting such subordination; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Tenant’s obligation to (a) subordinate its rights under this Lease to the lien of any holder of a Mortgage and (b) execute and deliver such instrument shall be conditioned upon Landlord obtaining and delivering to Tenant, in recordable form, from the holder of any Mortgage to which this Lease is to become subordinate a non-disturbance agreement reasonably acceptable to Tenant containing a covenant binding upon the holder thereof to the effect that as long as Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease, this Lease shall not be terminated or modified in any respect whatsoever, nor shall the rights of Tenant hereunder or its occupancy of the Leased Premises be affected in any way by reason of such Mortgage or any foreclosure action or other proceeding that may be instituted in connection therewith, and that, except to the extent that the holder of such Mortgage is required to do so to effectively foreclose such Mortgage, Tenant shall not be named as a defendant in any such foreclosure action or other proceeding.

(A) Tenant Default; Cure Rights. If (i) Tenant neglects or fails to pay any Annual Fixed Rent, Annual Percentage Rent or other charge hereunder within 10 days after notice of default, or (ii) Tenant neglects or fails to perform or observe any of the other covenants, terms, provisions or conditions on its part to be performed or observed under this Lease, within thirty (30) days after notice of default (or if more than thirty (30) days shall be reasonably required because of the nature of the default, if Tenant shall fail to proceed diligently to cure such default after such notice), or (iii) Tenant neglects or fails to perform or observe any obligations pursuant to Tenant’s Operating Covenant hereunder, or (iv) upon the occurrence of any default under any Related Agreement or Guaranty of a Related Agreement that remains uncured after the expiration of the applicable cure period thereunder or (v) Tenant (a) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, (b) commences any case, proceeding or other action seeking to have an order for relief entered on its behalf as debtor or to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution or composition of it or its debts under any federal, state or local law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, (c) makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (d) is generally unable to pay its debts as they mature, (e) seeks or consents to the appointment of a receiver of itself or of the whole or any substantial part of its property, or (f) files a petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement under an order or decree appointing, without the consent of Tenant, a receiver of Tenant of the whole or substantially all of its property, and such case, proceeding or other action is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after the commencement thereof; or (vi) the estate or interest of Tenant in the Leased Premises or any part thereof is levied upon or attached in any proceeding and the same is not vacated or discharged within the later of ninety (90) days after commencement thereof or thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of notice thereof from Landlord (unless Tenant is contesting such lien or attachment in accordance with this Lease), then an event of default shall exist hereunder and Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter, as permitted by law, give Tenant written notice of Landlord’s termination of this Lease, and, upon such notice, Tenant’s rights to possession of the Leased Premises shall cease and this Lease shall thereupon be terminated, and Landlord may re-enter and take possession of the Leased Premises as its own property; or Landlord may remain out of possession of the Leased Premises and treat the term of the Lease as subsisting and in full force and effect, in which event Landlord shall have all rights and remedies available at law, in equity or hereunder; and as an alternative remedy Landlord may, at Landlord’s election, without terminating the then current term, or this Lease, re-enter the Leased Premises or take possession thereof pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, and having elected to re-enter or take possession of the Leased Premises without terminating the term, or this Lease, Landlord shall use reasonable diligence as Tenant’s agent to relet the Leased Premises, or parts thereof, for such term (which may be greater or less than the remaining balance of the then current term) or terms and at such rental and upon such other terms and conditions (which may include concessions or free rent) as Landlord may reasonably deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Leased Premises, and no such re-entry or taking of possession of the Leased Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on Landlord’s part to terminate this Lease, and no such re-entry or taking of possession by Landlord shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay Rent (at the time or times provided herein), or of any of its other obligations under this Lease, all of which shall survive such re-entry or taking of possession, and Tenant shall continue to pay Rent provided for in this Lease until the end of the term and whether or not the Leased Premises shall have been relet, less

 

G-24











 

the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Leased Premises after deducting all of Landlord’s expenses in or in connection with such reletting, including without limitation all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, expenses of employees, alterations costs and expenses of preparation for reletting. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, then Landlord may re-lease the Leased Premises for such price and on such terms as may be immediately obtainable, and Tenant will be and remain liable, not only for all Rent due and other obligations incurred up to the date on which the termination becomes effective, for all holdover damages that accrue under the holdover section of this Lease until Tenant vacates or is removed from the Leased Premises, but also for stipulated or liquidated damages for its nonperformance equal to the sum of (i) all expenses that Landlord may incur in re-entering and re-possessing the Leased Premises, putting the Leased Premises in proper repair and curing any default by Tenant, and removing Tenant’s improvements, if Landlord has elected to require such removal, making any reasonable non-structural modifications that may be required for any new tenants, and reletting the Leased Premises, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, sheriffs fees and brokerage fees in doing so, plus (ii) twenty-four (24) months of the Annual Fixed Rent provided in this Lease. Having elected either to remain out of possession and treating this Lease as remaining in full force and effect or to re-enter or take possession of Leased Premises without terminating the term, or this Lease, Landlord may by notice to Tenant given at any time thereafter while Tenant is in default in the payment of Rent or in the performance of any other obligation under this Lease, elect to terminate this Lease and, upon such notice, this Lease shall thereupon be terminated. If in accordance with any of the foregoing provisions of this Article 25 Landlord shall have the right to elect to re-enter and take possession of the Leased Premises, Landlord may enter and expel Tenant and those claiming through or under Tenant and remove the effects of both or either (forcibly if necessary) without being guilty of any manner of trespass and without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of rent or preceding breach of covenant. Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any of the other remedies herein provided or any other remedies provided by law, nor shall pursuit of any remedy herein provided constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent due to Landlord hereunder or of any damage accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon the occurrence of an Tenant event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default.

 

Following an event of default, all amounts due from Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

 

(B) Landlord Default, Cure Rights. If Landlord neglects or fails to perform or observe any of the covenants, terms, provisions or conditions on its part to be performed or observed under this Lease, or within 30 days after notice of default (or if more than 30 days shall be reasonably required because of the nature of the default, if Landlord shall fail to proceed diligently to cure such default after such notice), then Tenant may immediately or at any time thereafter, in addition to any other rights and remedies as may otherwise be provided in this Lease for a Landlord default, pursue all rights and remedies it may have at law and equity generally.

 

(C) Self Help. If either party (the “Defaulting Party”) fails to perform any agreement or obligation on its part to be performed under this Lease, the other party (the

 

G-25











 

“Curing Party”) shall have the right (i) if no emergency exists, to perform the same after giving 30 days’ notice to the Defaulting Party, and (ii) in any emergency situation to perform the same immediately without notice or delay. For the purpose of rectifying a default of the Defaulting Party as aforesaid, the Curing Party shall have the right to enter the Leased Premises. The Defaulting Party shall on demand reimburse the Curing Party for the costs and expenses incurred by the Curing Party in rectifying defaults as aforesaid, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, but nothing herein shall be deemed to permit either party to set off any costs of cure or other amounts against the amounts owing to the other party hereunder.. Any act or thing done by the Curing Party pursuant to this paragraph shall not constitute a waiver of any such default by the Curing Party or a waiver of any covenant, term or condition herein contained or the performance thereof.

 

25. Access to Premises.

 

Tenant shall permit [Prime Lessor,] Landlord and its authorized representatives to enter the Facility at all reasonable times (upon 48 hours prior notice, except in the event of an emergency, in which no prior notice is required prior to entry) for the purposes of (i) serving or posting or keeping posted thereon notices required by Law, (ii) conducting periodic inspections, (iii) performing any work thereon required or permitted to be performed by Landlord pursuant to this Lease, and (iv) showing the Leased Premises to prospective purchasers or lenders.

 

26. Force Majeure.

 

If either party shall be delayed or hindered in or prevented from the performance of any act required under this Lease by reason of strikes, lockouts, labor troubles, inability to procure materials, failure of power, restrictive Laws (except as otherwise specifically provided herein), riots, insurrection, terrorist acts, war or other reason beyond the reasonable control of and not the fault of the party delayed in performing the work or doing the acts required under the terms of this Lease (collectively, “Force Majeure”), then performance of such act shall be excused for the period of the delay, and the period for the performance of any such act shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay. The provisions of this Article shall not (i) operate to excuse Tenant from prompt payment of rent or any other payment required by Tenant under the terms of this Lease, or (ii) be applicable to delays resulting from the inability of a party to obtain financing or to proceed with its obligations under this Lease because of a lack of funds.

 

27. Remedies Cumulative; Legal Expenses; Time of the Essence.

 

(A) The various rights and remedies given to or reserved to Landlord and Tenant by this Lease or allowed by law shall be cumulative, irrespective of whether so expressly stated.

 

(B) In case suit shall be brought because of the breach of any agreement or obligation contained in this Lease on the part of Tenant or Landlord to be kept or performed, and a breach shall be established, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all expenses incurred in connection with such suit, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

 

(C) Time is of the essence of this Lease.

 

G-26











 

28. Lease Not to be Recorded.

 

Upon request of Landlord or Tenant, the parties hereto shall promptly execute and deliver a memorandum of this Lease for recording purposes in recordable form. If Tenant elects to record such memorandum, Landlord shall promptly cause the same to be recorded, at Tenant’s expense. Neither party shall record this Lease without the consent of the other party.

 

29. Notices.

 

All notices, consents, requests, approvals and authorizations (collectively, “Notices”) required or permitted hereunder shall only be effective if in writing. All Notices (except Notices of default, which may only be sent pursuant to the methods described in (A) and (B) below) shall be sent (A) by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, or (B) by Federal Express, U.S. Post Office Express Mail, Airborne or similar nationally recognized overnight courier which delivers only upon signed receipt of the addressee, or (C) by facsimile transmission and addressed as follows or at such other address, and to the attention of such other person, as the parties shall give notice as herein provided:

The following clause shall be applicable if the Landlord is a real estate investment trust: Tenant acknowledges that Landlord intends to elect to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Code. Tenant shall exercise its reasonable best efforts not do anything which would materially adversely affect Landlord’s status as a REIT. Tenant agrees to enter into reasonable modifications of this Lease which do not materially adversely affect Tenant’s rights and liabilities if such modifications are required to retain or clarify Landlord’s status as a REIT.

 

37. Governing Law. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State where the Leased Premises are located, but not including such State’s conflict-of-laws rules.

Landlord or its agent shall have the right to enter the Leased Premises at all reasonable times for the purpose of exhibiting such Leased Premises to others and to place upon such Leased Premises during the period commencing 180 days prior to the expiration of the Term “for sale” or “for rent” notices or signs of such number and in such locations as Tenant shall reasonably approve.

 

(B) Transfer of Permits, Etc. On Termination. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, at the option of Landlord, transfer to and relinquish to Landlord or Landlord’s nominee and reasonably cooperate with Landlord or Landlord’s nominee in connection with the processing by Landlord of such nominee of all licenses, operating permits, and other governmental authorization and all assignable service contracts, which may be necessary or appropriate for the operation by Landlord or such nominee of the Leased Premises; provided that the costs and expenses of any such transferring assignable contracts or the processing of any such application shall be paid by Landlord or Landlord’s nominee.

 

39. Estoppel. Landlord and Tenant each confirm and agree that (a) it has read and understood all of the provisions of this Lease; (b) it is an experienced real estate investor and is familiar with major sophisticated transactions such as that contemplated by this Lease; (c) it has negotiated with the other party at arm’s length with equal bargaining power; and (d) it has been advised by competent legal counsel of its own choosing.

 

40. Joint Preparation. This Lease (and all exhibits thereto) is deemed to have been jointly prepared by the parties hereto, and any uncertainty or ambiguity existing herein, if any, shall not be interpreted against any party, but shall be interpreted according to the application of the rules of interpretation for arm’s-length agreements.

 

41. Counterparts. This Lease may be executed at different times and in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Lease by telecopier shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Lease. In proving this Lease, it shall not be necessary to

 

G-30











 

produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

 

42. Attorneys’ Fees. If either party obtains a judgment against the other party by reason of a breach of this Lease, a reasonable attorneys’ fee as fixed by the court shall be included in such judgment.

 

43. Limitation on Landlord’s Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease: (A) Tenant will look solely to the interest of Landlord (or its successor as Landlord hereunder) in the Leased Premises for the satisfaction of any judgment or other judicial process requiring the payment of money as a result of (i) any negligence (including gross negligence) or (ii) any breach of this Lease by Landlord or its successor (including any beneficial owners, partners, shareholders, trustees or others affiliated or related to Landlord or such successor) and Landlord shall have no personal liability hereunder of any kind, and (B) Tenant’s sole right and remedy in any action concerning Landlord’s reasonableness (where the same is required hereunder) will be an action for declaratory judgment and/or specific performance, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to claim or recover any damages in any such action.

 

44. Severability. Invalidation of any provisions of this Lease or of the application thereof to any party by judgment or court order shall in no way affect any of the other provisions hereof or the application thereof to any other party and the same shall remain in full force and effect.

 

45. Waiver of Trial by Jury.

 

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TENANT AND LANDLORD HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGAINST THE OTHER IN ANY MATTERS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE, THE RELATIONSHIP OF LANDLORD AND TENANT, TENANT’S USE AND OCCUPANCY OF THE FACILITY OR THE ENTIRE PREMISES, AND ANY CLAIM OF INJURY OR DAMAGE.

 

46. Interest on Past Due Obligations; Late Charges. Except where another rate of interest is specifically provided for in this Lease, any amount due from either party to the other under this Lease which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due to and including the date of payment. In addition, Tenant acknowledges that the late payment of any installment of Annual Fixed Rent, Percentage Rent or any other amounts due Landlord will cause Landlord to incur certain costs and expenses, the exact amount of which are extremely difficult or impractical to fix. These costs and expenses may include, without limitation, administrative and collection costs and processing and accounting expenses. Therefore, if any installment of Annual Fixed Rent, Percentage Rent or other amount due Landlord is not received by Landlord from Tenant when due, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord a late charge equal to the 4% of such delinquent amount. Landlord and Tenant agree that this late charge represents a reasonable estimate of the costs and expenses Landlord will incur and is fair compensation to Landlord for its loss suffered by reason of late payment by Tenant. Upon accrual, all such late charges shall be deemed Additional Rent.

RENT AND EXPENSE RIDER TO LEASE

Attached to and forming a part of Lease effective as of 
 by and between

EPT SKI PROPERTIES, INC., 
 as Landlord,
 and , as Tenant.

 

1. Rent.

 

A. Annual Fixed Rent; Escalation. Tenant shall pay landlord, during the term of this Lease, the Annual Fixed Rent in the manner hereinafter provided. The Annual Fixed Rent for each Lease Year shall be payable in equal monthly installments on or before the first day of each calendar month, in advance during such Lease Year. If the Annual Fixed Rent is payable for a fraction of a month, the amount payable shall be a pro rata share of a full month’s rent. The Annual Fixed Rent shall be prorated for any partial Lease Year.

 

B. Percentage Rent.

 

(1) In addition to the Annual Fixed Rent, Tenant shall pay Landlord as percentage rent (the “Annual Percentage Rent”) an amount for each Lease Year equal to the Percentage Rate multiplied by the Gross Receipts for such Lease Year in excess of an amount (“Base Amount”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Annual Fixed Rent payable for such Lease Year by the Percentage Rate. For purposes of example only, assume that the Annual Fixed Rent for the applicable Lease Year is $990,000.00, and the Gross Sales for the applicable Lease Year is $10,000,000.00. Under this example, the Annual Percentage Rent would be equal to the Percentage Rate (10%) multiplied by $100,000 (which equals the amount by which the Gross Receipts for the applicable Lease Year exceed the Annual Fixed Rent divided by the Percentage Rate), or $10,000. For the purpose of computing the Annual Percentage Rent for the first Lease Year, the Gross Receipts for and the Annual Fixed Rent payable for the partial calendar month, if any, preceding the first Lease Year shall be included in the Annual Fixed Rent and Gross Receipts for the first Lease Year. Within 60 days following the end of each Lease Year, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with a statement, verified by a corporate officer of Tenant, showing the amount of Gross Receipts for the preceding Lease Year, which statement shall be accompanied by Tenant’s payment of Annual Percentage Rent, if any, is due.

 

(2) The term “Lease Year” as used in this Lease shall mean a period of 12 full calendar months. The first Lease Year shall begin on the first day of the calendar month following the Commencement Date, unless the term commences on the first day of a calendar month, in which case the first Lease Year shall begin on Commencement Date. Each succeeding Lease Year shall commence on the anniversary of the first Lease Year.

 

(3) Landlord shall have the right, not more often than once each year, to audit Tenant’s records of Gross Receipts, but only for the purpose of ascertaining the amount of the Gross Receipts during the preceding Lease Year. Such audit shall be made on behalf of

 

1











 

Landlord by a certified public accountant to be selected by Landlord. If Landlord wishes to audit Tenant’s records for any Lease Year, Landlord shall notify Tenant and proceed with such audit within 12 months after the end of the Lease Year in question. Should Landlord fail to exercise the right to audit the records of Tenant within 12 months after the end of any Lease Year, then Landlord shall have no further right to audit the records of Tenant for such Lease Year, and Tenant’s statement of Gross Receipts for such Lease Year shall conclusively be deemed to be correct. Any such audit by Landlord shall be at Landlord’s own expense, except as hereinafter provided. If any such audit discloses that Tenant has understated the Gross Receipts for such Lease Year by more than 3% and Landlord is entitled to any additional Annual Percentage Rent as a result of such understatement, then Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord the cost of such audit. Tenant shall, in any event, pay Landlord the amount of any deficiency in Annual Percentage Rent.

(2) “Taxes” shall mean all ad valorem taxes and assessments and governmental charges (including sewer charges), general or special, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether imposed by any Governmental Authorities, which are levied on or charged against the Leased Premises, the Facility, Tenant’s Property, the real estate on which the Facility is located, personal property or rents, or on the right or privilege of leasing real estate or collecting rents thereon, and any other taxes and assessments attributable to the Leased Premises or its operation [and including any taxes payable by Sublandlord as tenant under the Prime Lease] or any tax or assessment or governmental charge imposed or collected in lieu of or in substitution for any such tax, assessment or governmental charge, including without limitation all special assessments, impact fees, development fees, traffic generation fees, parking fees in respect of any Fiscal Tax Year falling wholly within the term of this Lease and a portion of any real estate taxes so imposed in

 

3











 

respect of any Fiscal Tax Year falling partly within and partly without the term hereof, equal to the proportion which the number of days of such Fiscal Tax Year falling within the term hereof bears to the total number of days of such Fiscal Tax Year; excluding, however, any income, franchise, corporate, capital levy, capital stock, excess profits, transfer, revenue, estate, inheritance, gift, devolution or succession tax payable by Landlord or any other tax, assessment, charge or levy upon, or measured, in whole or in part, by the rent payable hereunder by Tenant, except to the extent any such tax, assessment, charge or levy is imposed in substitution for any ad valorem tax or assessment.

 

(3) “Taxes Applicable to Leased Premises” shall mean an amount equal to the Taxes levied against the land and improvements within the Leased Premises [or otherwise payable by Sublandlord as tenant under the Prime Lease].

Landlord shall not, during the pendency of such legal or other proceeding or contest, pay or discharge any Taxes on the Leased Premises, or tax lien or tax title pertaining thereto, provided Landlord may do so in order to stay a sale of the Leased Premises through foreclosure of a tax lien thereon. Any refund obtained by Tenant shall be paid first to Tenant to the extent of its costs and expenses of such contest and on account of any portion of the Taxes so refunded which was previously paid by Tenant.

 

3. Address for Payment. Until Tenant receives other instructions in writing from Landlord, Tenant shall pay all rents and other charges under this Lease by check to the order of Landlord, at its address first written in this Lease.

The liability of the Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected by, and the Guarantor expressly waives any defenses that may arise by reason of, (a) the release or discharge of the Tenant in any creditors’, receivership, bankruptcy or other proceedings; (b) the impairment, limitation or modification of the liability of the Tenant or the estate of the Tenant in bankruptcy, or of any remedy for the enforcement of the Tenant’s liability under the Lease, resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or other statute or from the decision in any court; (c) the rejection or disaffirmance of the Lease in any such proceedings; (d) the modification, assignment or transfer of the Lease by the Tenant; (e) any disability or other defense of the Tenant; or (f) the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Tenant under the Lease.

 

9. The Guarantor agrees that in the event the Tenant becomes insolvent or is adjudicated bankrupt, or files a petition for reorganization, arrangement, or similar relief under any present or future provisions of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law or statute of the United States or any State thereof, or if an order for relief is entered against the Tenant on a petition for involuntary bankruptcy filed by any of the creditors of the Tenant, or if the Tenant seeks a judicial readjustment of the rights of its creditors under any present or future Federal or State law or if a receiver of all or part of its property and assets is appointed by any State or Federal Court, then-in addition to all other remedies available to Landlord under the Lease or at law, the following shall apply:

 

a. If the Lease shall be terminated or rejected, or the Obligations of the Tenant thereunder shall be modified, the Landlord shall have the option either (i) to require the Guarantor, and the Guarantor hereby so agrees, to execute and deliver to the Landlord a new Lease as the tenant for the balance of the term then remaining as provided in the Lease and upon the same terms and conditions as set forth therein, or (ii) to recover from the Guarantor that amount which the Landlord would be entitled to recover from the Tenant under the Lease in the event of a termination of the Lease by the Landlord because of a default by the Tenant, and such amount shall be recoverable from the Guarantor without regard to whether the Landlord is entitled to recover that amount from the Tenant in any such proceeding.

 

b. If any obligation under the Lease is performed by the Tenant and all or any part of that performance is avoided or recovered from the Landlord as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, in any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization or other proceeding involving the Tenant, the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect.
