 Executive is willing to accept such employment and perform services for the

activity. Executive shall perform such duties and exercise such powers as the CEO shall from time to time reasonably delegate to him.

trade organizations and participating in charitable, community or religious activities that do not substantially interfere with his duties and responsibilities hereunder.

Golden, Colorado or any other location reasonably acceptable to Executive.

 10. Assignment. This contract shall be binding upon and inure to the

businesses of the Company, if such successor expressly agrees to assume the obligations of the Company hereunder. 
  
 11. Amendment. This Agreement may only be amended by written agreement of the parties hereto. 
  
 12. Nondisclosure of Confidential Information: Non-Competition.

  
 (a) Executive shall not, without the prior
written consent of the Company, use, divulge, disclose, or make accessible to any other person, firm, partnership, corporation, or other entity any Confidential Information pertaining to the business of the Company, its subsidiaries, or its
affiliates except (i) while employed by the Company, in the business of and for the benefit of the Company, or (ii) as required by law. For purposes of this Section 12(a), “Confidential Information” shall mean non-public information
concerning the financial data, strategic business plans, product development (or other proprietary product data), customer lists, marketing, acquisition, and divestiture plans and other non-public, proprietary and confidential information of the
Company, that, in any case, is not otherwise available to the public (other than by Executive’s breach of the terms hereof). 
  
 (b) During the period of his employment hereunder and thereafter for the greater of one year or the period during which Executive receives
benefits hereunder or under the Company Severance Plan for Executives and Officers, Executive agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Company, (A) he will not, directly or indirectly, either as principal, manager, agent, consultant,
officer, stockholder, partner, investor, lender, or employee or in any other capacity, carry on, be engaged in, or have any financial interest in, any business in Competition (as defined in Section 12(c) of this Agreement) with the business of the
Company and (B) he shall not, on his own behalf or on behalf of any person, firm or company, directly or indirectly, solicit or hire for the benefit of anyone, other than the Company, any person who is, or was at any time during the twelve (12)
months immediately preceding the time of the solicitation or hiring by Executive employed by the Company (other than Executive’s secretary or other administrative employee who worked directly for him). 
  
 (c) For purposes of this Section 12, a business shall be
deemed to be in “Competition” with the Company if it designs, manufactures, markets, or sells ultrasonic medical devices, accessories or supplies for use in the Company’s actual or contemplated field of business from the time
Executive commenced employment with the Company and its predecessor, Sound Surgical Technologies LLC, through the last day of Executive’s employment with the Company. 
  
 (d) Executive and the Company agree that this covenant not to compete is a reasonable covenant under the
circumstances, and further agree that if in the opinion of any court of competent jurisdiction such restraint is not reasonable in any respect, such court shall have the right, power, and authority to excise or modify such provision or provisions of
this covenant as to the court shall appear not reasonable and to enforce the remainder of the covenant as so amended. 

  

 4 

 
Executive agrees that any breach of the covenant contained in this Section 12 would irreparably injure the Company. Accordingly, Executive agrees that the
Company, in addition to pursuing any other remedies it may have in equity, may seek an injunction against Executive from any court having jurisdiction over the matter restraining any further violation of this Agreement by Executive and, upon the
issuance of a preliminary injunction in favor of the Company, cease making any payments otherwise required by this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event a court of competent jurisdiction, which recognizes the validity of the
provisions of this Section 12, finds Executive not to be in violation of the provisions of this Section 12, then the Company shall pay to Executive, in a lump sum, within ten days of such determination, all amounts that would have been payable to
Executive hereunder through the date of such determination and continue making any other payments due with respect to periods of time subsequent to such determination in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. 
  
 13. Legal Expenses. In the event the Executive is required to hire
counsel to negotiate on his behalf in connection with his termination or resignation from the Company upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, or in order to enforce the rights and obligations of the Executive as provided herein, the Company
shall reimburse to the Executive all legal fees and related expenses (including the costs of experts, evidence and counsel) reasonably and in good faith incurred by the Executive in seeking to enforce the terms hereof., if Executive prevails in such
enforcement action. 
  
 14. Assistance in Litigation. At
the request and expense of the Company (including payment based on the Executive’s last per diem earnings with the Company) for the time involved if the Executive is not then in the Company’s employ or receiving continuing Base Salary
payments pursuant to Section 6 or the Severance Plan for Executives and Officers, and upon reasonable notice, the Executive shall, at all times during and for a period of five years after the Employment Period, furnish such information and
assistance to the Company as it may reasonably require in connection with any issue, claim, or litigation in which the Company may be involved (other than any such issue, claim, or litigation with respect to which the Executive is a party adverse to
the Company). During such period, the Executive shall provide such assistance at those times and places as may be reasonably requested by the Company and not unreasonably inconvenient to the Executive. The Executive shall not be required to provide
such assistance for more than three consecutive days or for an aggregate of 15 days or more in any consecutive six-month period. 
  
 15. Provisions Concerning Exercise of Option Vesting. Unless the Company’s stock option plans then in effect are more favorable to the
Executive, in which case they shall apply, upon the termination of Executive’s employment other than by resignation, Executive shall be provided a one-year period in which to exercise all vested options; provided, however that such period shall
not extend beyond the tenth anniversary date of the date of the option grant. 
  
 16. Beneficiaries: References. Executive shall be entitled to select (and change, to the extent permitted under any applicable law) a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive any compensation or benefit payable
hereunder following Executive’s death, and may change such election, in either case by giving the Company written notice thereof. In the event of Executive’s death or a judicial determination of his incompetence, reference in this
Agreement to Executive shall be deemed, where appropriate, to refer to his beneficiary, estate or other legal representative, and the Company shall pay amounts payable under this Agreement, unless otherwise provided herein, in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, to Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees, legatees, or estate, as the case may be. Any reference to the masculine gender in this Agreement shall include,
where appropriate, the feminine. 
  
 17. Survival. The
respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall survive any termination of this Agreement to the extent necessary to the intended preservation of such rights and obligations. The provisions of this Section 17 are in addition to the
survivorship provisions of any other section of this Agreement. 
  
 18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted, and governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, without reference to rules relating to conflicts of law. 
  

 5 

 19. Effect on Prior Agreements. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the
parties hereto and supersedes in all respects any prior or other agreement or understanding between the Company, its predecessor Sound Surgical Technologies LLC or any affiliate of the Company and Executive. 
  
 20. Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to withhold from
payment any amount of withholding required by law. 
  
 21.
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original. 
  
 22. Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY
RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES) AND THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE
BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
DOCUMENTS RELATED HERETO. 
  
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the Effective Date.

 THIS SUBLEASE AGREEMENT (“Sublease”) is entered into as of the 1st day of January, 2005 by and between LAKE HOSPITAL SYSTEM,
INC. an Ohio non-profit corporation whose address is One Victoria Place, Painesville, Ohio 44077, Attention: President and CEO (“Sublandlord”), and HHC OHIO, INC. an Ohio corporation, whose address is 1500 Waters Ridge Drive,
Lewisville, Texas 75057, Attention: President (“Subtenant”). 
  
 RECITALS: 
  
 WHEREAS, the County
of Lake, Ohio (“Landlord”), as “Lessor,” and Sublandlord, as “Lessee,” entered into that certain Lease Agreement dated January 1, 2005 (the “Master Lease”) with respect to the Leased Premises (as defined
therein) known as Laurelwood Hospital, a copy of which Master Lease is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit “A”; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the Subtenant desires to sublease from the Sublandlord, and the Sublandlord desires to sublease to the Subtenant, the Leased
Premises, on the terms and conditions set forth hereinbelow; and 
  
 WHEREAS, Sublandlord represents that this Sublease to Subtenant complies with the requirements for a sublease for Hospital Specialty Services under Section 10.1 of the Master Lease. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the
mutual obligations, promises and covenants herein contained, and in further consideration of ten ($10.00) dollars cash in hand paid by each party hereto to the other, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged by each of the parties
hereto, it is hereby agreed as follows: 
  
 1.
Recitals: The foregoing recitals are true and correct and made a part hereof. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Sublease shall have the meanings given to them in the Master Lease. 
  
 2. Leased Premises and Term: Sublandlord hereby leases
to Subtenant and Subtenant hereby leases from Sublandlord the Leased Premises for a term (the “Original Term”) commencing as of the date of this Sublease and expiring December 31, 2019, subject to the terms of Section 6 hereinbelow. In
addition to the Original Term of this Sublease, Subtenant shall have the option to extend this Sublease for one (1) additional fifteen year term (the “Extension Term”), subject to the same terms and conditions as the Original Term except
that the Basic Rent (as hereinafter defined) shall be as provided in Section 3.1 (b) hereof. Subtenant shall exercise its right to extend this Sublease by giving notice thereof not less than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Original
Term. The phrase “Sublease Term” shall mean the Original Term and, if Subtenant 

  

 
exercises its option to extend, it shall also include the Extension Term and the phrase “Sublease Year” shall mean each calendar year during the
Sublease Term. 
  
 3. Rent. 
  
 3.1 Basic Rent. 
  
 (a) Original Term. On or before the
first day of January, April, July and October (each a “Rental Payment Date”) during the Original Term commencing on January 1, 2005 and continuing through October 1, 2019, the Subtenant covenants and agrees to and will pay as Basic Rent
hereunder an advance quarterly rent payment in the amount of Two Hundred Thousand Four Hundred Thirty-Three and 23/100 Dollars ($200,433.23). In addition, on December 31, 2007 and each December 31 thereafter to and including December 31, 2012,
Subtenant shall make a payment of Forty-One Thousand Six Hundred Sixty-Six Dollars ($41,666.00) to the Lake Hospital Foundation, Inc. 
  
 (b) Extension Term. On or before each Rental Payment Date during the Extension Term, commencing January 1, 2020,
the Subtenant covenants and agrees to and will pay as Basic Rent hereunder an advance quarterly rent payment in an amount equal to one-quarter of the annual Fair Market Rent (herein so-called) for the Leased Real Property as described below plus
$1.00. 
  
 If Subtenant exercises its right to
extend the Sublease, the parties will have until the date that is six (6) months prior to the date on which the Original Term will expire in order to agree on the Fair Market Rent for the Leased Real Property for the Extension Term (“Fair
Market Rent”). If the parties agree on the Fair Market Rent for the Extension Term during that period, they shall immediately execute an amendment to this Sublease stating the dollar amount of Basic Rent for the Extension Term. If the parties
are unable to agree on the Fair Market Rent for the Extension Term during that period, then the Fair Market Rent for the Extension Period will be established by appraisal. 
  
 Sublandlord and Subtenant shall each appoint one appraiser at least five (5) months prior to the expiration
of the Original Term provided, however, that if either party fails to designate an appraiser within the time period specified, then the appraiser who is designated shall conclusively determine the Fair Market Rent. If two (2) appraisers are
designated, then they shall submit within thirty (30) days after the second thereof has been designated their appraisals of the Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser shall prepare a written appraisal report that shall conform to the standard of
professional practice of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers. Sublandlord and Subtenant intend that the “Fair Market Rent” shall be for the Leased Real Property only and shall be deemed to be the rent per square foot of
unimproved real estate that is then being charged as of the date of such appraisal for similar unimproved real estate in the area of the Leased Real Property that is comparable in quality and location to the Leased Real Property. 
  
 Should the two appraisals arrive at different Fair Market
Rent for the Extension Term, within said thirty (30) days the two appraisers shall each submit an independent written appraisal and together they shall designate one additional person as appraiser 

  

 2 

 
within five (5) days following the expiration of said 30-day period; provided, however, that if the difference between the two appraisals is ten percent
(10%) or less of the lowest appraisal, then an additional appraiser shall not be designated and the Fair Market Rent shall equal the average of the two appraisals that are submitted. The third appraiser shall submit an independent written appraisal
within thirty (30) days following his or her appointment. If the two appraisers cannot agree upon a third appraiser, then either Sublandlord or Subtenant may request that a judge of the Common Pleas Court of Lake County appoint such third appraiser.
The Fair Market Rent shall be equal to the average of the two written appraisals which are closest, and the third appraisal shall be disregarded. Each party shall bear the cost of the appraiser appointed by it and the parties shall share equally in
the cost of the third appraiser. No person shall be appointed or designated an appraiser unless he or she is an independent appraiser who is a currently certified member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (with MAI designation) and
unless he or she has at least five (5) years experience as an appraiser in Lake County, Ohio. The third appraiser shall not have ever been employed (full-time or part-time or on a consulting basis) by Sublandlord or Subtenant. In the event that the
Fair Market Rent is not established before the commencement of the Extension Term, Subtenant shall pay a fair market rental for the Subleased Real Property based on the fair market rental as determined by the appraiser designated by Subtenant. When
the Fair Market Rent has been established, the Basic Rent shall be retroactively effective as of the beginning of the Extension Term and Subtenant shall pay Sublandlord any deficiency within thirty (30) days after the establishment of the Basic Rent
or receive a credit on the Basic Rent next coming due during the Extension Term. 
  
 3.2 Additional Payments. The Subtenant covenants and agrees to make Additional Payments to Sublandlord of any amount designated in this Sublease as an Additional Payment and payment for or
reimbursement of any and all reasonable costs, expenses and liabilities: 
  
 (a) incurred or paid by the Sublandlord in satisfaction of any obligations of the Subtenant hereunder not performed by the Subtenant in accordance with the provisions hereof; or 
  
 (b) incurred as a result of a request by the
Subtenant for the performance or payment by Sublandlord of any item, action or matter which Sublandlord is not obligated to perform or pay in accordance with the provisions hereof. 
  
 All costs, expenses, liabilities, fees and charges described in this Section, together with interest thereon
at the Interest Rate for Advances from the date of payment or incurrence, shall be paid by the Subtenant on demand. 
  
 3.3 Place of Payments. The Basic Rent and Additional Payments shall be paid to the Sublandlord at its address set
forth on the first page of this Sublease or to a different address as to which notice is given in accordance with Section 15 hereof. 
  
 3.4 Obligations Absolute and Unconditional. The obligations of the Subtenant to pay Basic Rent, Additional Payments
and any other amounts payable under 

  

 3 

 
this Sublease and to observe and perform its covenants, agreements and obligations provided in this Sublease are absolute and unconditional. 
  
 Nothing contained in this Sublease shall be construed as
releasing the Sublandlord from the observance or performance of any covenant, agreement or other obligation on its part under the Master Lease or this Sublease; and in the event that the Sublandlord should fail to observe or perform any such
covenant, agreement or other obligation, the Subtenant may institute any action against the Sublandlord which the Subtenant may deem necessary to compel observance and performance or to recover damages for nonobservance or nonperformance, provided,
however, Subtenant shall not institute such an action if the covenant, agreement or obligation alleged by Subtenant to not have been performed by Sublandlord is an obligation of Subtenant under this Sublease. 
  
 The Subtenant (in its own name and on its own behalf or, to
the extent lawful, in the name and on behalf of the Sublandlord) may prosecute or defend any action or proceeding or take any other action involving third persons (including, but not limited to, Landlord) which the Subtenant deems to be reasonably
necessary to secure or protect its rights of possession, occupancy and use hereunder. In that event, the Sublandlord covenants and agrees (i) to cooperate fully with the Subtenant, and (ii) if the Subtenant shall so request, to take all action
necessary to effect the joinder of the Subtenant or substitution of the Subtenant for the Sublandlord in that action or proceeding. If Subtenant is not permitted to so prosecute or defend as aforesaid, then Sublandlord agrees at the request of
Subtenant to prosecute or defend the same for and on behalf of Subtenant. 
  
 3.5 Security Deposit. During the Original Term, Subtenant shall maintain a Security Deposit, herein so-called, with Sublandlord in the amount of the LOC Amount (hereinafter defined). No
Security Deposit shall be required during the Extension Term. Upon the execution of this Sublease, and as the Security Deposit under this Sublease, Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord an executed original irrevocable standby letter of credit
(“LOC”) in the LOC Amount, in favor of Sublandlord. The initial LOC shall have a term commencing no later than January 1, 2005 and expiring no earlier than December 31, 2005 (subject to the LOC extension requirement hereinafter specified).
The LOC may be drawn upon and used upon each occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined in Section 14 of this Sublease) which remains uncured after applicable notice and cure periods. Sublandlord may use all or part of the LOC to pay past due
Basic Rent, Additional Payments or other payments due Sublandlord under this Sublease, or to cure any other defaults of Subtenant under this Sublease without prejudice to any other remedy provided by law or herein. The LOC shall be issued in a form
and by a national banking association or other financial institution acceptable to Sublandlord. With respect to any Event of Default occurring during the Original Term of the Sublease and which remains uncured following applicable notice and cure
periods, Sublandlord shall have the right to proceed against the total LOC Amount at the sole discretion of Sublandlord regarding items and the amounts to be drawn upon relating to any Event of Default by Subtenant; provided, however, that any drawn
amounts not properly applied by Sublandlord in accordance with this Section 3.5 shall be promptly paid by Sublandlord to Subtenant, or at Subtenant’s option deposited and maintained by Sublandlord in a separate bank account in the financial
institution which issued the LOC on account of Subtenant’s Security Deposit 

  

 4 

 
obligations hereunder. Interest shall be paid on any portion of the LOC converted to cash pursuant to the provisions hereof. In the event of the sale of the
Leased Premises, Sublandlord shall transfer the Security Deposit, both the LOC and any cash proceeds thereof, to the vendee, provided such vendee agrees in a writing delivered to Subtenant to accept and hold the same in compliance with the terms
hereof. Sublandlord shall return the LOC and any amount held in cash by Sublandlord as part of the security deposit promptly upon the expiration of the Original Term; provided, Subtenant is not in default under this Sublease. 
  
 The “LOC Amount” shall be (i) for Sublease Years 1
through and including Sublease Year 7, an amount equal to Two Million Six Hundred Sixty-Five Thousand Nine Hundred Sixty-Six Dollars ($2,665,966.00) and (ii) for Sublease Years 8 through the expiration of the Original Term, an amount equal to One
Million Three Hundred Thirty-Two Thousand Nine Hundred Eighty-Three Dollars ($1,332,983.00); provided Subtenant remains in continuous compliance with the financial covenants contained in paragraphs 1, 10 through 13 of the Compliance Certificate
attached as Exhibit A to the Seventh Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated May 23, 2002 by and between Horizon Health Corporation and its subsidiaries and J.P. Morgan Chase Bank and certain other financial institutions as
lenders, as the same may be amended from time to time, or any comparable financial covenants that may be contained in a credit facility that replaces such credit facility or such other financial covenants as Subtenant and Sublandlord may agree upon
(“Financial Covenants”); and, in the event at any time after the commencement of Sublease Year 8 Subtenant is not in compliance with the Financial Covenants for two consecutive fiscal quarters, then the LOC Amount will be restored to the
LOC Amount required pursuant to clause (i) immediately preceding until Subtenant has achieved four consecutive quarters of compliance with the Financial Covenants. Failure to so restore the LOC Amount shall constitute an Event of Default.

  
 The LOC shall contain the following terms and
conditions: 
  
 (a) The LOC shall
be extended without further amendment from year to year unless, at least 30 days prior to its then current expiration date, the issuing bank notifies Sublandlord, in writing, that the issuing bank intends not to renew the LOC. 
  
 (i) In the event the LOC is not extended at
least 30 days prior to its then stated expiration date and the Original Term of the Sublease has not expired or will not expire prior to the expiration date of the then LOC, then (unless Subtenant has, prior to drafting by Sublandlord, deposited

 (y) Sublandlord’s signed certificate

 (z) The original LOC for endorsement of the amount paid and if the draft is for the full amount the LOC is to be surrendered to the issuer.

 3.6 Past Due Basic Rent, Additional Payments and Other Amounts. In the event that the Subtenant should fail to make any payment of Basic Rent, Additional Payments or other amounts payable
under the Sublease, (i) the payment in default shall continue as an obligation of the Subtenant until the amount in default shall have been paid fully, (ii) during the default period, the amount of any amount in default shall bear interest at the

 6. Terms of Master Lease: 
  
 (a) This Sublease is subject to and
subordinate to the terms, covenants, conditions and limitations of the Master Lease. 
  
 (b) Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that during the Sublease Term, the Subtenant shall perform, in full and on time, and
be obligated to comply with, all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the “Lessee” under the Master Lease, (i) other than those having to do with Sublandlord’s corporate and tax status, including, without limitation,
Sublandlord’s designation as a “nonprofit hospital agency” in Section 1.6 of the Master Lease and corporate and tax status obligations in Sections 8.2 and 8.3 of the Master Lease with which Sublandlord agrees to continue to comply and
(ii) other than those requiring the payment of Basic Rent under the Master Lease. It is the parties intent that all of the Sublandlord’s obligations under the Master Lease for the Leased Premises except as specifically excluded hereunder shall
be paid and performed by Subtenant on a triple net basis, including, but not limited to all rent, charges, taxes and insurance obligations. 
  
 (c) If the Master Lease shall terminate before the expiration of the Sublease Term, Subtenant will, at Landlord’s
option, attorn to Landlord and waive any right Subtenant may have to terminate this Sublease or surrender possession thereunder as a result of the termination of the Master Lease, and if Subtenant receives a written notice from Landlord stating that
Sublandlord is in default under the Master Lease, Subtenant shall thereafter pay all amounts due to the Landlord under the Master Lease directly to Landlord until such default has been cured. 
  
 (d) Sublandlord agrees not to take any
action that results in a default under the Master Lease or with the exception of Sublandlord’s purchase of Landlord’s interest in the Leased Premises causes it to be terminated or forfeited. Subtenant shall have the right to request the
Sublandlord to make demand upon the Landlord to enforce any obligations of the Landlord under the Master Lease which may affect the Subtenant’s use and enjoyment of the Leased Premises during the Sublease Term. Upon such request the Sublandlord
shall timely transmit such demand to the Landlord. 
  
 (e) As long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Sublease, Sublandlord shall not: (i) exercise any rights under Section 5.2 of the Master Lease to remove or substitute portions of the
Leased Premises, (ii) create Permitted Encumbrances on the Leased Premises, or (iii) exercise the right to terminate the Master Lease or modify the Leased Premises under Sections 6.1, 6.2, 9.1, 9.3 or 11.2 of the Master Lease, without in each case
the consent of the Subtenant. 
  
 (f) Sublandlord represents and warrants that as of the date of this Sublease: (i) the Master Lease is in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and that Sublandlord holds the entire leasehold estate under the Master Lease, (ii)
Subtenant shall peacefully have, hold and enjoy the Leased Premises, subject to the terms and conditions of this Sublease, provided that Subtenant timely and fully performs all of its covenants, duties and obligations under this Sublease, and (iii)
it has no knowledge of any 

  

 7 

 
obligations and liabilities of the Landlord associated with or arising out of Landlord’s ownership of the Leased Premises relating to periods prior to
the date of this Sublease. 
  
 (g) Sublandlord agrees that the obligation to provide medically necessary and emergency care as provided in Section 2.4 of the Master Lease is limited to the provision of behavioral health care services for the purposes of this Sublease.

  
 (h) Sublandlord will provide
Subtenant with copies of all material notices received by it under the Master Lease promptly following their receipt by Sublandlord. 
  
 (i) Upon termination of this Sublease, Subtenant will be permitted to remove from the Leased Premises the items of
personal and movable property installed by Subtenant to the extent that such items are not essential to the administration, operation and maintenance of the Leased Premises as Hospital Facilities. 
  
 7. Modification of the Leased Premises. Subtenant
shall be permitted to remodel, make additions, modifications and improvements to the Leased Premises and to substitute and replace personal property and fixtures on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as provided in Article V of the
Master Lease. Upon vacating the Leased Premises, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Master Lease, the Subtenant shall surrender same and shall clean and restore the Leased Premises, at its own expense, so that the Leased Premises
will be in the same condition (except for ordinary wear and tear, damage due to casualty, removal of personal and movable property and modification as permitted herein) as when the Leased Premises were first occupied by the Subtenant. 
  
 8. Insurance. Subtenant agrees to purchase and
maintain during the Sublease Term the insurance required under the Master Lease and to name Landlord and Sublandlord as additional insureds on said insurance to the same extent as Landlord is required to be so named under the Master Lease.

  
 9. Damage, Destruction and
Condemnation. In the event of damage, destruction or condemnation of the Leased Premises to the extent and in the manner provided in Article VI of the Master Lease, Subtenant shall have the same rights and obligations under this Sublease as
Sublandlord has under the Master Lease; provided, however that within 90 days of such event Subtenant shall notify Sublandlord of whether it elects to rebuild or restore the Leased Premises or terminate this Sublease. If Subtenant elects to
terminate the Sublease as a result of damage, destruction or condemnation occurring during the Original Term, then Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord upon the effective date of the termination a termination fee in an amount equal to the Basic Rent
due for the remainder of the Original Term discounted to present value at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, less the net amount of any insurance or condemnation proceeds received and retained by Sublandlord as a result of such damage,
destruction or condemnation. 
  
 10.
Assignments, Subleases and Other Grants. Without the consent of Sublandlord, which it may withhold in its sole discretion, Subtenant shall not (a) assign, sublease or otherwise grant to others the right to operate and control all or any
portion of 

  

 8 

 
the Leased Premises or (b) grant or release easements, licenses, rights-of-way or other rights and privileges in the nature of easements; provided, however
Subtenant may grant to others the right to operate and control a portion of the Leased Premises for the purpose of facilitating the provision of Convenience Activities (“Permitted Grant”) as long as the following conditions are satisfied:
(i) No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Sublease, (ii) the Permitted Grant shall expressly be made subject to the terms of this Sublease, (iii) the Permitted Grant shall not affect or reduce any obligations of Subtenant or
rights of Sublandlord hereunder, and all obligations of Subtenant hereunder shall continue in full effect as the obligations of a principal and not of a guarantor or surety, as though no Permitted Grant had been made, and (iv) the Permitted Grant
shall not be made to any party which is a business competitor of Sublandlord in the delivery of patient care or has a five percent (5%) or greater interest in any entity which competes with Sublandlord in the delivery of patient care. 
  
 11. Right of First Refusal. If Sublandlord intends to
sell the Leased Premises at any time during the Sublease Term and whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Sublandlord agrees to give Subtenant, and Subtenant shall have, a right of first refusal to purchase the Leased
Premises upon the following terms: (i) Sublandlord shall give Subtenant written notice of its intention to sell the Leased Premises; (ii) Sublandlord shall have received a bona fide letter of intent for the purchase of the Leased Premises which
letter of intent must include all of the material terms of the subject transaction including but not limited to the identity of the prospective purchaser, the purchase price, terms of financing, due diligence and feasibility periods and closing
date, (iii) a true, correct and complete copy of such letter of intent must be delivered by Sublandlord to Subtenant with the written notice of Sublandlord’s intention to sell, (iv) Subtenant (or one of its affiliates) shall have the right for
a period of fifteen (15) business days from receipt of the foregoing to determine whether it wants to acquire the Leased Premises upon the same terms as set forth in such letter of intent (such right shall be exercised by written notice from
Subtenant to Sublandlord within such fifteen (15) business day period), (v) if Subtenant does not elect to acquire the Leased Premises pursuant to such right of first refusal and the prospective purchaser identified in such letter of intent does not
thereafter close the proposed purchase of the Leased Premises pursuant to the terms of such letter of intent delivered to Subtenant within one-hundred and eighty (180) days after the date thereof, then Subtenant shall once again have a right of
first refusal as to the next proposed sale of the Leased Premises. No letter of intent shall be a valid letter of intent if the consideration therein is not to be paid in lawful currency of the United States of America. 
  
 If the provisions of this Section 11 shall be breached or
violated during any time that they are in effect, Subtenant shall have the right, in addition to any other rights available at law or in equity, to obtain injunctive relief. Sublandlord agrees that it will only sell the Leased Premises in its
entirety and will only sell the same for lawful currency of the United States of America.

 12. Access Easements, Truck Dock and Signage. 
  
 (a) The Leased Premises includes ingress and
egress easements that cross land of Lake West Hospital leased by Sublandlord from the Landlord and depicted on survey map no. 2518 prepared by Frank M. Cirinski, P. E., Garrett & Associates, Cleveland, Ohio last updated November, 2004 (the
“Survey”) as Parcel Nos. 2 and 5. (the “Access Easements”). Certain of the Lake West Hospital buildings are located on the Access Easements and Sublandlord hereby grants to Subtenant the right to use as an alternate means of
ingress and egress the portions of Sublandlord’s parking lot that lies along the Southern boundary of Sublandlord’s property as a means of ingress and egress to Robin Hood Drive which intersects with Euclid Avenue, such area being the area
the City of Willoughby Fire Department has designated as an alternate access from Euclid Avenue to the Leased Premises as shown on Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Alternate Access”). Sublandlord and Subtenant will
prepare a legal description of the Alternate Access and Sublandlord will use reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary consents to grant Subtenant an easement for the Alternate Access and terminate the Access Easements. 
  
 (b) The Survey shows a light pole located on
a traffic island northeast of 3 parking spaces and a 24” drain on the southeast portion of the Leased Premises, which is in the vicinity of the truck dock for Lake West Hospital. Sublandlord shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense,
to remove the light pole and the traffic island on which it is located to improve access to its truck dock. If Sublandlord undertakes such project it shall: (i) comply with applicable building and zoning codes and (ii) include as part of the project
a suitable means to prevent the trucks using the loading dock from coming into contact with the vehicles parked in the 3 parking spaces after the traffic island has been removed. 
  
 (c) The current sign for Laurelwood Hospital is located on land leased to Sublandlord by
Landlord. Sublandlord grants to Subtenant a license to use the area occupied by the sign to display on the current sign the name Laurelwood Hospital, the time and temperature and to indicate that the roadway adjacent to the sign is the entrance to
Laurelwood Hospital. Subtenant shall make no other changes in the sign without the approval of Sublandlord. 
  
 13. Brokerage. The parties hereto each represent to the other that neither has dealt with any real estate broker in connection with
the negotiation and/or consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Sublease. Each party agrees that it will defend, save and hold harmless against claim or loss (including reasonable attorney’s fees) which may be asserted against the
other by reason of any claims or determinations in contravention of the representations contained in this Section. 
  
 14. Events of Default. It shall be an “Event of Default” under this Sublease, if: 
  
 (a) Subtenant defaults in payment of Basic
Rent, Additional Payments or any other amount of money to be paid by Subtenant as provided in this Sublease, and such default shall continue uncorrected for a period of ten (10) days after written notice to the Subtenant thereof; or 
  

 10 

 (b) Subtenant defaults in the prompt and full performance and observance
of any of the terms and conditions of this Sublease to be performed or observed by Subtenant and not relating to the payment of money, and any such default shall continue uncorrected for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice to the
Subtenant thereof, or if any such last mentioned default cannot reasonably be corrected within such thirty (30) day period, then, except upon an event of Force Majeure (as described in the Master Lease provided, however this provision shall not
apply to failures by Subtenant to pay rentals or other amounts specified in this Sublease) if Subtenant shall not within such period have commenced in good faith to correct such default and thereafter continue with due diligence to cure such
default; or 
  
 (c) Subtenant
abandons the Leased Premises or ceases to provide behavioral services on the Leased Premises for a period of thirty (30) days, or has a receiver or trustee appointed of the Subtenant’s property (not set aside within thirty (30) days), or shall
assign the Subtenant’s property for the benefit of creditors; or 
  
 (d) any execution, attachment or other order of court shall be issued upon or against the interest of Subtenant in this Sublease and shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after notice,

  
 then in any such event, in addition to any and all rights and
remedies allowed by law and equity, Sublandlord may, with or without further notice, forthwith terminate this Sublease and Subtenant’s right to possession of the Leased Premises, or Sublandlord may, without terminating this Sublease, terminate
Subtenant’s right to possession of the Leased Premises. 
  
 Upon the termination of this Sublease, or upon the termination of Subtenant’s right to possession without termination of this Sublease: 
  
 (a) Subtenant shall surrender possession and vacate the Leased Premises immediately, and Sublandlord may enter into and
repossess said Leased Premises, with or without process of law, and remove all persons and property therefrom; and 
  
 (b) Sublandlord may remove from the Leased Premises any and all property found therein and handle and store the same at
the risk and expense of Subtenant, and such repossession shall not release Subtenant from Subtenant’s obligation to pay the rents herein provided. 
  
 In the event of termination of this Sublease as provided in this Section 14, Sublandlord, in addition to any and all rights and remedies
allowed by law and equity, shall upon such termination be entitled to recover damages in the amount equal to the then present value of the rent reserved in this Sublease for the entire residue of the Sublease Term less the then present worth of the
fair rental value of the Leased Premises for the residue of the Sublease Term as then in effect, plus the costs incurred, including reasonable legal expenses, to terminate this Sublease and Subtenant’s possession of the Leased Premises.

  

 11 

 In the event of any repossession by Sublandlord without terminating this Sublease,
Sublandlord shall use Sublandlord’s reasonable best efforts to relet and keep rented the Leased Premises or any part thereof, as agent of Subtenant, to any person, firm or corporation, and on such reasonable terms as Sublandlord may determine,
provided that Sublandlord shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate damages to Subtenant arising from Subtenant’s continuing liability under this Sublease. Sublandlord may make repairs, alterations, replacements, and/or decorations in or to the
Leased Premises to the extent reasonably necessary and advisable for the purpose of reletting the Leased Premises, and in the making of such repairs, alterations, additions, replacements and/or decorations shall not operate or be construed to
release Subtenant from liability hereunder; and Subtenant shall upon demand pay the cost thereof, together with Sublandlord’s expense of reletting (including reasonable legal expenses and brokerage commissions). If the rents collected by
Sublandlord upon any such reletting are not sufficient to pay monthly the full amount of the rent reserved herein, together with the cost of such repairs, alterations, additions, replacements, decorations and expenses, Subtenant shall pay to
Sublandlord the amount of each monthly deficiency upon demand, and if the rent so collected from any such reletting is more than sufficient to pay the full amount of the rents reserved herein, together with such costs and expenses of Sublandlord,
Sublandlord shall, at least every twelve (12) months after such eviction, account for any surplus to Subtenant. 
  
 Any and all property which may be removed from the Leased Premises by Sublandlord may be handled, removed, stored or otherwise disposed of
by Sublandlord at the risk and expense of Subtenant, and Sublandlord shall in no event be responsible for the preservation or the safekeeping thereof. Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord, upon demand, any and all expenses incurred in such removal and
all storage charges against such property, so long as the same shall be in Sublandlord’s possession or under Sublandlord’s control. If any property shall remain in the Leased Premises or in the possession of Sublandlord, and shall not be
retaken by Subtenant within a period of ten (10) days from and after the time when the Leased Premises are either abandoned by Subtenant or repossessed by Sublandlord under the terms of this Sublease, said property shall conclusively be deemed to
have been forever abandoned by Subtenant. 
  
 15.
Prior Understandings: All prior understandings and agreements between the parties with respect to the leasing of the Leased Premises are merged within this Sublease which fully and completely sets forth the understanding of the parties. This
Sublease may not be changed or terminated orally or in any matter other than by an agreement in writing. 
  
 16. Notices: Any notice or demand (collectively, “Notice”) which either party may or must give to the other hereunder
shall be in writing to be effective and will be effective only upon delivery (including hand delivery, any nationally recognized overnight courier service, or United States Postal Service, certified mail, return receipt requested). Any Notice
refused shall be deemed delivered on the date of such refusal. All delivery of Notices hereunder shall be made at the address set forth on the first page of this Sublease for the respective party. Any party hereto may change the address for Notices

MERCHANTABILITY, SUITABILITY, HABITABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OF ANY OTHER KIND ARISING OUT OF THIS SUBLEASE, AND THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE LEASED PREMISES WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THOSE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS
SUBLEASE, IF ANY. 
  
 18. Amendment of Master
Lease. Sublandlord shall not amend the Master Lease in any manner that adversely affects the rights of Subtenant under this Sublease without the consent of Subtenant. 
  
 19. Indemnity. Subtenant hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Sublandlord harmless from and
against any and all expense, loss, claims or liability including reasonable attorneys’ fees arising out of or in connection with any act or omission of Subtenant, its agents, contractors or employees, including, but not limited to, claims as a
result of injury to or death of any person, property damage or arising out of or in connection with Subtenant’s use and possession of the Leased Premises, or its breach of this Sublease (including the terms of the Master Lease).

expiration or termination of this Lease, unless Lessee shall have exercised its rights set forth in Section 11.2 hereof, the Lessee shall surrender the Leased Premises and appurtenances thereto to Lessor in as good condition as prevailed at the time
Lessee was put in full possession thereof, loss by fire or other casualty covered by insurance, ordinary wear and tear, obsolescence, removal and replacement and acts of God excepted. 
  
 So long as such shall not be in violation of the Act, Lessee shall have the privilege of demolishing,
rebuilding, and remodeling the Leased Premises or making additions, modifications and improvements to the Leased Premises, from time to time as it, in its discretion, may deem to be desirable for its uses and purposes as Hospital Facilities,
provided that such demolition, rebuilding, remodeling, additions, modifications or improvements do not diminish the utility of the Leased Premises as Hospital Facilities. The cost of such demolition, rebuilding, remodeling, additions, modifications
and improvements shall be paid by Lessee. 
  
 Section 5.2. Substitution or Removal of Portions of the Leased Premises. 
  

	 	 (a)
	 Lessee covenants and agrees that the suitability of the Leased Premises as Hospital Facilities will not be impaired. Lessee shall have the privilege from time to
time of substituting or replacing property comprising a part of the Leased Premises for any portions of the Leased Premises, provided that the property so substituted or replaced shall not impair the suitability of the Leased Premises as Hospital
Facilities. Any such substituted or replaced property shall become subject to Permitted Encumbrances and any permitted security interest therein authorized by Section 4.1 of this Lease. All buildings, structures, improvements, machinery, equipment
and other property that shall be constructed, placed or installed in or upon the Leased Premises as an addition to or as a substitute for or in renewal or replacement thereof, shall become a part of the Leased Premises, as the case may be.

  

	 	 (b)
	 In any instance where the Lessee in its sole discretion determines that any portions of the Leased Premises have become inadequate, obsolete, worn out,
unsuitable, undesirable or unnecessary, the Lessee may remove such portion provided that such removal shall not impair the operating viability of the Leased Premises as Hospital Facilities. 

  

 -10- 

	 	 (c)
	 As provided in this Section, the Lessee shall have the right to have any land, or other interest in the Leased Premises constituting a portion of the Leased
Premises which is not essential to the operation of the Leased Premises released from the definition of the Leased Premises and the provisions of this Lease. The Lessor shall join in any such release upon the written request of the Lessee therefore
accompanied by a certificate of the Authorized Lessee Representative stating that the conditions set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph have been met. 

  

	 	 (d)
	 Upon any removal under the provisions of this Section, the Lessee shall notify the Lessor of the property so removed. 

  

	 	 (e)
	 Any property so removed that is owned by the Lessor may be transferred by the Lessor to the Lessee. 

  
 Section 5.3. Taxes, Other Governmental Charges and Utility
Charges. 
  
 The Lessee covenants and agrees
to pay, when due, all assessments, levies, taxes and insurance premiums of every kind and nature relating to the whole or any part of the Leased Premises, or any interest therein, and all costs, expenses, liabilities and charges of every kind and
nature, including charges for gas, electricity, water, sewer and other utilities, relating to the maintenance, repair, replacement and improvement, if undertaken hereunder by the Lessee, of the Leased Premises or any part thereof or any facilities,
machinery or equipment thereon, or relating to the operations or services conducted or provided thereon or in connection therewith which may arise or accrue during the Lease Term, provided, however, that the Lessor will cooperate fully with the
Lessee, but at the Lessee’s expense, in any contest, unless the tax assessment or charge is assessed or levied by the Lessor, in which event the Lessee shall have the right to contest the tax, assessment or charge as if the Lessee were the
owner of the Leased Premises. 
  
 Nothing
contained in this Section shall be deemed to constitute an admission that the Lessor, the Lessee or any of the Lessee’s or Lessor’s properties is subject to assessments or taxes or a consent thereto, provided, that with respect to the
obligations imposed upon it under this Section, the Lessee may exercise the right to contest them to the same extent and in the same manner as if provided in Section 7.1 of this Lease. 
  
 Section 5.4. Insurance. 
  

	 	 (a)
	 The Lessee covenants and agrees that, except as may be permitted otherwise by this Section, it shall keep the Leased Premises and other properties, operations
and equipment of Lessee insured at all times and carry such other insurance with respect to the operations and maintenance of the Leased Premises, and other properties, operations and equipment of Lessee of such type, against such risks and in such
amounts as are normally carried by hospitals of similar type and size in the State and will pay timely the premiums for at least the following insurance with respect 

  

 -11- 

	 	 
to the Leased Premises and other properties, operations and equipment of Lessee: 

  

	 	 (i)
	 fire and extended coverage including, but not limited to, insurance against loss or damage from lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, civil commotion,
aircraft, vehicles, smoke, malicious mischief and vandalism, or equivalent coverage obtainable through Federal or State programs as may be approved for issuance in the State; 

  

	 	 (ii)
	 insurance coverage of boilers, pressure vessels and auxiliary piping; 

  

	 	 (iii)
	 comprehensive general liability insurance; 

  

	 	 (iv)
	 business automobile liability insurance including property damage; 

  

	 	 (v)
	 workers’ compensation and employer’s liability coverage as required by the laws of the State; 

  

	 	 (vi)
	 business interruption insurance, covering loss of Lessee’s anticipated revenues by reason of the total or partial suspension of, or interruption in, the
operation of the Leased Premises and other properties, operations and equipment of Lessee, with such exceptions as are customarily imposed by insurers; 

  

	 	 (vii)
	 professional liability insurance protecting the Lessor and Lessee against liability for death, injury, loss or damage occurring during examination, diagnosis,
treatment or care of any patient; and 

  

	 	 (viii)
	 fidelity bonds on all officers and employees of the Lessee who have access to or have custody of Lessee’s revenues. 

  
 Any insurance required to be carried under this Section may
be included as part of any blanket or other policy or policies of insurance covering not only the Leased Premises but also other properties in which the insured has an insurable interest in the case of property and, in the case of all policies, may
include additional named insureds and may include deductibles or funded self-insured retention levels as are appropriate. 
  
 Upon the request of Lessor, which shall be made not more frequently than once a each Fiscal Year, Lessee shall file with the Lessor an
opinion of an Insurance Consultant to the effect that the coverage and deductibles maintained by the Lessee for all of the insurance policies required by this Section are appropriate for hospitals of similar type and size in the State. 

 
 In the event the Lessee in good faith determines that any
insurance required above is not commercially available at a reasonable cost with reasonable terms, it shall so certify to the Lessor and advise the Lessor that it proposes to engage an Insurance Consultant, identifying such Consultant by name and
qualifications, to verify such determination and to make recommendations regarding the types, amounts and provisions of any such insurance that should 

  

 -12- 

 
be purchased or funded by the Lessee (taking into consideration the costs and practices of other hospitals of similar size and type in the State to the
extent such information is available) and alternative or supplementary programs to provide protection against the types of liabilities covered by such insurance. The Governing Board of the Lessee may, upon resolution adopted in good faith and upon
the recommendations of the Insurance Consultant, adopt alternative or supplemental risk management programs which such board determines to be reasonable and which shall not have material adverse impact on the Lessee’s reimbursement from
third-party reimbursers, including, without limitation, the right to organize either solely or in connection with other hospitals, or health care institutions or organizations, captive insurance companies, to participate in programs of captive
insurance companies organized by others, to establish a self-insurance trust fund, to participate in mutual or other cooperative insurance or other risk management programs with other hospitals or health care institutions or organizations, to
participate in or enter into agreements with local, State or federal governments in order to achieve such insurance, to take advantage of State or federal statutes or laws now or hereafter in existence limiting liability, or to participate in other
alternative risk management programs, provided, however, if the revision in insurance coverage which the Lessee proposes is required by third-party payment rules or requirements of third party payors which comprise at least twenty percent (20%) of
the Lessee’s gross in-patient revenues, then the same conclusively shall be deemed to be reasonable and the Lessee shall not be required to submit the same to an Insurance Consultant. A copy of any such recommendations by said Insurance
Consultant shall be filed with the Lessor, and the Lessee shall promptly deliver to the Lessor in writing a copy of each alternative risk management program that has been adopted by its Governing Board. Such program may be implemented on or after
the thirtieth (30th) day following the delivery of a written copy thereof to the Lessor. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if at any time it shall be unlawful to carry such insurance or if at any time the Lessee shall be unable to obtain such insurance to the
extent above required, either as to amount of such insurance or as to the risks covered thereby or the deductible provisions thereof, it will not constitute an Event of Default under the provisions of this Lease if the Lessee shall carry such
insurance to the extent reasonably obtainable, as certified by the Insurance Consultant. Any of the insurance required in subsections (i) to (viii), inclusive, may provide a deductible provision deemed reasonable by the Insurance Consultant, and to
that extent the Lessee may be a self-insurer. 
  

	 	 (b)
	 Each insurance policy required by this Section (i) shall be by such financially responsible insurer or insurers qualified to write the respective insurance in
the State and of recognized standing, (ii) shall be in such forms and with such provisions (including the loss payable clause, the waiver of subrogation clause, and the designation of the named insured parties) as are generally considered standard
provisions for the type of insurance involved (provided that provisions superior to standard provisions shall satisfy this requirement) and (iii) shall prohibit cancellation or substantial modification by the insurer or Lessee without thirty (30)
days’ prior written notice to the Lessor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all insurance policies carried pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (vi) and (vii) of Subsection (a) of this Section shall name the Lessor and the
Lessee as parties insured thereunder as the 

  

 -13- 

	 	 
respective interest of each of such parties may appear, and loss under clauses (i) and (ii) shall be made payable and shall be applied as provided in Section
6.1 of this Lease. The Net Proceeds of insurance required by clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vii) shall be applied toward extinguishment or satisfaction of the liability with respect to which such insurance proceeds are paid, and the Net Proceeds of
insurance required by clauses (vi) and (viii) shall be applied and handled as all other receipts of the Lessee for use and application in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. Each such policy shall provide that losses thereunder shall be
adjusted with the insurer by the Lessee on behalf of the insured parties. 

  

	 	 (c)
	 The Lessee shall annually certify to the Lessor on or before thirty (30) days following the end of each Fiscal Year whether Lessee is in compliance with the
insurance requirements required under this Section 5.4, and whether all premiums thereon have been paid in full and, in connection with any such policies which will expire prior to thirty (30) days following the end of the following Fiscal Year, the
Lessee shall furnish a list of such policies and their expiration date and, prior to each such expiration date, evidence satisfactory to the Lessor that such insurance has been renewed or replaced and that all premiums thereon have been paid in
full. 

  
 Section 5.5.
Payment by Lessor. 
  
 If the Lessee fails
to: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 pay taxes, assessments or other governmental or utility charges as required by Section 5.3 hereof, 

  

	 	 (b)
	 maintain and keep in force the insurance required by Section 5.4 hereof, 

  

	 	 (c)
	 maintain required workers’ compensation coverage as required by Section 5.4 hereof, or 

  

	 	 (d)
	 pay or discharge mechanics’ or other liens as required by Section 7.1 hereof, 

  
 in addition to any other right or remedy, the Lessor may advance funds to pay
any required charges, although the Lessor shall not be obligated to do so. Any funds so advanced, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate for Advances from the date of advancement, shall constitute Additional Payments and shall be paid
by the Lessee on demand. In any action brought to collect those Additional Payments, the Lessor shall be entitled to the recovery of the Additional Payments, except as limited by law or judicial order or decision. 
  

 -14- 

 ARTICLE VI 
  
 DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION AND CONDEMNATION 
  
 Section 6.1. Damage and Destruction. 
  
 If the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, shall be damaged or partially or totally destroyed by fire, flood windstorm or other casualty
at any time during the Lease Term, and if the Lessee shall not have exercised its option to terminate this Lease under Section 11.2(a), there shall be no abatement or diminution of the Basic Rent, Additional Payments or other amounts payable, or in
any covenant, agreement or other obligation of the Lessee, under the Lease. 
  
 In the event of such damage or destruction by casualty to the Leased Premises, if the Net Proceeds of insurance received by the Lessee are less than $1,000,000, they shall be paid to the Lessee and used as any other
revenues of the Lessee. 
  
 If the claim for loss
resulting from such destruction or damage is in excess of $1,000,000, the Lessee shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Lessor, and the Lessee shall cause such Net Proceeds received in excess of $1,000,000 to be applied in one or more of
the following ways: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 as to the portion of the Leased Premises damaged or destroyed, to promptly repair, rebuild or restore same with such changes, alterations and modifications
(including the substitution and addition of the other property) as may be designated by the Lessee and as shall in the judgment of the Lessee not impair or diminish its suitability as Hospital Facilities, and there shall be applied for such purpose
but only to the extent thereof, any Net Proceeds resulting from claims for such losses, or 

  

	 	 (b)
	 to payment of indebtedness secured by the Leased Premises, provided that no part of such Net Proceeds may be applied for such payment unless the Lessee shall
furnish to the Lessor a certificate of a Consultant stating (i) that the property forming a part of the Leased Premises that was destroyed or damaged is not essential to its suitability as Hospital Facilities for use by a hospital institution in
connection with its operations, or (ii) that the Leased Premises have been restored to a condition substantially equivalent to its condition prior to such destruction or damage, or (iii) that land or improvements have been acquired, by construction
or otherwise, which are suitable for the operation of the Leased Premises as Hospital Facilities. 

  
 The Lessee shall adjust losses under the insurance policies related to the Leased Premises, in conformity with this Lease, as promptly as
practicable. Any adjustment of any loss or damage in an amount in excess of $1,000,000 under any policy of property insurance relating to the Leased Premises and any settlement or payment of indemnity in an amount in excess of $1,000,000 under any
such policy shall be evidenced by a certificate, filed with the Lessor, signed by the Authorized Lessee Representative. 
  

 -15- 

 Within ninety (90) days from the date of any such loss or destruction relating to the
Leased Premises, the Authorized Lessee Representative shall advise the Lessor, as to which of the ways specified in this Section 6 will apply. 
  
 Section 6.2. Eminent Domain. 
  
 If any public authority or entity, in the exercise of its power of eminent domain, takes or damages the Leased Premises, or any part
thereof at any time during the Lease Term, and if the Lessee shall not have exercised its option to terminate this Lease under Section 11.2(b) hereof, (i) there shall be no abatement or diminution of the Basic Rent, Additional Payments or other
amounts payable, or in any covenant, agreement or other obligation of the Lessee under the Lease, and, the Lessee shall take prompt and appropriate measures to protect and enforce its rights and interests and those of the Lessor in connection with
any condemnation proceeding. Prompt written notice of any taking or damaging of the Leased Premises or of any official notice thereof or of the institution of any proceeding therefor by any public instrumentality, body, agency or officer shall be
given to the Lessor. 
  
 In the event that title
to or the temporary use of the Leased Premises shall be taken under the exercise of the power of eminent domain by any governmental body or by any person, firm corporation acting under governmental authority, any Net Proceeds received from any award
made in such eminent domain proceedings shall be paid to the Lessee, and, if in excess of $1,000,000, be applied in one of the following ways: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 the restoration of the remaining portion of the Leased Premises to substantially the same condition as it existed prior to the exercise of said power of eminent
domain; 

  

	 	 (b)
	 the acquisition, by construction or otherwise, by the Lessee of other land or improvements suitable for operation of the Leased Premises as Hospital Facilities;
or 

  

	 	 (c)
	 prepayment of indebtedness secured by the Leased Premises, provided the Authorized Hospital Representative furnishes to Lessor a certificate that (i) the
property forming a part of the Leased Premises that was taken by such condemnation is not essential to its suitability as Hospital Facilities for use by a hospital institution in connection with its operations or (ii) that the Leased Premises has
been restored to a condition substantially equivalent to its condition prior to the taking by such condemnation proceedings, or (iii) that land or improvements have been acquired, by construction or otherwise, which are suitable for the operation of
the Leased Premises as contemplated by clause (b) of this subsection. 

  
 Within ninety (90) days from the date of entry of a final order in any eminent domain proceedings granting condemnation with respect to the Leased Premises, the Authorized Lessee Representative
shall advise the Lessor, as to which of the ways specified in this Section the Lessee elects to have such proceeds of the condemnation award applied. 
  

 -16- 

 The Lessor and the Lessee will cooperate fully in the conduct of any prospective or
pending condemnation proceedings with respect to the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, and to the extent that the Lessor may do so lawfully, it will permit the Lessee to litigate in any of those proceedings in the Lessee’s own name and on
its own behalf, or to the extent lawful, in the name and on behalf of the Lessor (except in a case in which those proceedings are by the Lessor, in which event the Lessee will have the right to proceed as if it were the owner of the Leased
Premises). In no event will the Lessor settle voluntarily or consent to the settlement of any prospective or pending condemnation proceedings with respect to the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, without the written consent of the Lessee.

  
 Section 6.3. Damage to, Destruction of and
Condemnation of Lessee-Owned Property. 
  
 The Lessee and each of its sublessees shall be entitled to any Net Proceeds paid for damage to, destruction of or condemnation of their own property. 
  

ARTICLE VII 
  
 MECHANICS’ LIENS AND OTHER LIENS 
  
 Section 7.1. Maintenance of Ownership and No Other Liens. 
  
 Except as permitted by this Lease, the Lessee covenants and agrees that it will not sell or otherwise dispose of, all or any part of the
Leased Premises, or the Lessee’s or Lessor’s interest therein, or directly or indirectly create or suffer to be created or to remain any mortgage, lien, encumbrance or charge upon, pledge of, security interest in or conditional sale or
other title retention agreement with respect to the Leased Premises, other than Permitted Encumbrances. Lessee covenants and agrees to satisfy or cause to be discharged, or to make adequate provision to satisfy and discharge, within sixty (60) days
after the same shall accrue, all lawful claims and demands for labor, materials, supplies or other items which, if not satisfied, might by law become a lien upon the Leased Premises, or against the Lessee’s or Lessor’s interest therein.

  
 If any such lien shall be filed against the
interest of the Lessor or Lessee in the Leased Premises, or asserted against any amounts payable hereunder, by reason of work, labor, services or materials supplied or claimed to have been supplied on or to the Leased Premises at the request or with
the permission of the Lessor or the Lessee, or of anyone claiming under the Lessor or the Lessee, the Lessee (subject to the Lessee’s right to contest as described below) shall, within thirty (30) days after it receives notice of the filing
thereof or the assertion thereof against such amounts, cause the same to be discharged of record, or effectively prevent the enforcement or foreclosure thereof against the Leased Premises or against such amounts, by contest, payment, deposit, bond,
order of court or otherwise. 
  
 After written
notice by the Lessee to the Lessor of the Lessee’s intention to do so, the Lessee may contest the validity or the amount of any lien or account at its own expense and in its own name and on its own behalf, or to the extent lawful in the name
and on behalf of the Lessor, by appropriate proceedings duly and timely instituted in good faith and diligently prosecuted. 
  

 -17- 

 In the event of a contest, the Lessee may permit any lien or account, or the amount
thereof so contested, to remain unpaid during the period of the contest and any appeal therefrom, if the Lessee delivers to the Lessor an opinion of Independent Counsel to the effect that, based on the amount of money involved, by nonpayment of any
item, the liens and priority of this Lease and the interests of the Lessor and the Lessee in the Leased Premises, will not be affected materially, and the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, will not be subject to imminent loss or forfeiture.
During the period when any lien or account so contested remains unpaid, the Lessee will set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto. 
  
 The Lessor will cooperate fully with the Lessee, but at the Lessee’s expense, in any contest (except in a case in which any lien or
account is asserted by the Lessor, in which event the Lessee will have the right to contest the lien or account as if it were the owner of the Leased Premises). 
  

If the Lessee fails to cause the lien or account to be discharged, or to contest the validity or amount thereof, as provided herein
within the period stated above, in addition to any other right or remedy of the Lessor, the Lessor may discharge the lien or account either by paying the amount claimed to be due or by procuring the discharge of the lien or account by deposit or by
bonding, although the Lessor shall not be obligated to do so. Any amount so paid or cost so incurred by the Lessor, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate for Advances from the date of payment or incurrence, shall constitute Additional
Payments and shall be paid by the Lessee on demand. In any action brought to collect those Additional Payments, the Lessor shall be entitled to the recovery of the Additional Payments, except as limited by law or judicial order or decision.

the Lessor shall have received an opinion of Independent Counsel acceptable to the Lessor to the effect that (i) immediately after such transaction, neither the Lessor, the Lessee nor such surviving, resulting or transferee corporation (the
“Transferee”) shall be in default in the performance or observance of any duties, obligations or covenants of the Lessor or the Lessee under this Lease, (ii) the assumption by such Transferee of the Lessee’s duties and obligations

Lessee’s possession and enjoyment of the Leased Premises during the Lease Term against all parties or will permit the Lessee, in its own name and on its own behalf, or to the extent lawful, in the Lessor’s name and on its behalf, to defend
that possession and enjoyment. 
  
 Section 8.7.
Right of Access. 
  
 The Lessee covenants
and agrees that, subject to reasonable security regulations and to reasonable requirements as to notice, the Lessor, and its duly authorized agents, will have the right at all reasonable times to enter upon, examine and inspect the Leased Premises,
although the Lessor is under no obligation to do so. 
  
 The Lessee covenants and agrees further that the Lessor, its duly authorized agents will have those rights of access to the Leased Premises which may be reasonably necessary for the proper maintenance of the Leased Premises in the event of
failure by the Lessee to observe and perform its covenants, agreements and obligations in respect thereof. 
  
 Section 8.8. Indemnification. 
  
 The Lessee (i) releases the Lessor from, (ii) covenants and agrees that the Lessor will not be liable for, and (iii) covenants and agrees
to indemnify the Lessor against all liabilities, claims, costs, losses and expenses imposed upon or asserted against the Lessor on account of: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 any loss or damage to property, or injury to or death of any person, that may be occasioned by any cause whatsoever pertaining to the acquisition, construction,
installation, improvement, equipping, maintenance, operation or use of the Leased Premises or occurring otherwise in or about the Leased Premises; 

  

 -21- 

	 	 (b)
	 any breach or default on the part of the Lessee in the observance or performance of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Lessee under the Lease or
arising from the acquisition, construction, installation, improvement or equipping of the Leased Premises, from any act or failure to act by the Lessee or any of its agents, contractors, vendors, servants, employees or licensees;

  

	 	 (c)
	 ownership or lease of any interest in the Leased Premises; and 

  

	 	 (d)
	 any action, claim or proceeding brought in connection with any of the foregoing; 

  
 provided, however, that indemnification under this Section shall not extent to damages resulting from negligent or
intentional acts of the Lessor. 
  
 In case any
action, claim or proceeding is brought or asserted against the Lessor in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder, the Lessor shall give notice promptly thereof to the Lessee. Upon receipt of that notice, the Lessee shall have the
obligation and the right to assume the defense of the action, claim or proceeding, provided that failure of the Lessor to give that notice shall not relieve the Lessee from any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Section unless
that failure prejudices the defense by the Lessee of the action, claim or proceeding. At its own expense, an indemnified party may employ separate counsel and may participate in the defense. The Lessee shall not be liable for any settlement made
without its consent. 
  
 The release and
indemnification set forth in this Section are intended to and shall include the indemnification of all affected officials, directors, officers and employees of the Lessor. The release and indemnification are intended to and shall be enforceable by
the Lessor, to the full extent permitted by law. All amounts payable under this Section, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate for Advances from the date of payment by the indemnified person, shall constitute Additional Payments and
shall be paid by the Lessee on demand by the indemnified person. In any action brought to collect those Additional Payments, the indemnified person shall be entitled to the recovery of the Additional Payments, except as limited by law or judicial
order or decision.

Legal Requirements require structural repairs or alterations to the Leased Premises or relate to the use, occupancy or manner of use of the Leased Premises. The Lessee will not use or occupy, and will not permit any use or 

  

 -22- 

 
occupancy of, the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, contrary to any Legal Requirements. At its own expense, the Lessee will procure, maintain and comply

improvement, equipping, operation and maintenance of the Leased Premises, or any part thereof. 
  
 The lessee may contest any Legal Requirement, at the Lessee’s expense and in its own name and on its own behalf, by any appropriate means in good faith, and may postpone compliance therewith
pending the completion of the contest, provided that in the event of any postponement of compliance, the Lessee shall deliver to the Lessor an opinion of Independent Counsel to the effect that the priority of this Lease will not be affected as a
result of such contest, that the conduct of the business at the Leased Premises or its maintenance and the interests of the Lessor and the Lessee in the Leased Premises will not be affected materially, and that the Leased Premises, or any part
thereof, will not be subject to imminent loss or forfeiture. 
  
 As used in this Section, the term “Legal Requirements” means all laws, statutes, codes, ordinances, resolutions, orders, final judgments and decrees, injunctions, rules, regulations, permits, licenses,
authorizations, directions and requirements of all governments, departments, commissions, boards, courts, authorities, agencies, officials and officers, foreseen or unforeseen, ordinary or extraordinary, which are applicable now or may be applicable
at any time hereafter to the Lessee, to the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, to any use or condition of the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, or to health care providers or hospitals generally.

observe and comply with the requirements respecting the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, imposed by any policies of insurance in force at any time with respect to any of the buildings, improvements or equipment constituting a part of the Leased
Premises, and (2) will comply with any instruments or documents of record in force at any time or burdening the Leased Premises, or any part thereof.

substitute organization which is nationally recognized as performing the functions now performed by such Commission.

patients who are residents of the Lessor and all members of the general public as facilities are available and as professional opinion determines the necessity thereof. 

  

 -23- 

	 	 (c)
	 prepare or amend existing hospital rules and regulations to provide a code of rules and regulations or policies with respect to the maintenance and operation of
the Leased Premises, including, but not restricted to, those governing the admission and discharge of patients, the admission and withdrawal of the right to practice in the Existing Facilities, in accordance with applicable legal requirements, the
employment and discharge of personnel, whether for full-time, part-time or special duty, excepting medical and technical personnel including those to assist in laboratories and such other facilities requiring skilled assistance, and the admission of
visitors and other personnel to the Leased Premises. A copy of such code of rules and regulations in force from time to time, including all amendments and revisions, shall be made available to the Lessor on request. Such rules, regulations or
by-laws may be amended from time to time by the Lessee at its discretion. No rule or regulation shall be adopted which shall require that as a condition of admission or continuation of the right to practice in the Existing Facilities, any
professional not be engaged in any group practice. 

  

	 	 (d)
	 provide or cause to be provided on the Leased Premises or on property reasonably adjacent to the Leased Premises sufficient parking for use by the staff and
patients of and visitors to the Leased Premises.

 The Lessee covenants that, for the purpose of performing and carrying out the respective duties imposed on an Accountant, a Consultant, and Insurance Consultant and any other consultants under
this Lease, it shall retain an Accountant, Consultant, Insurance Consultant or other consultant to the extent necessary to comply with this Lease. 
  
 Section 8.12. Qualification for Third Party Payments. 
  
 The Lessee shall at all times, unless a Consultant shall determine that it is in the best interest of the
Lessee and the Lessor not to maintain such status, use its best efforts to establish and maintain the status of the Lessee as a provider of health care services, eligible for payment or reimbursement under Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance
and any other successor programs, or any other federal or State programs substituted in lieu thereof or supplementary thereto. 
  
 Section 8.13. Extent of Provisions Regarding Lessee, No Personal Liability.

or stipulation contained in this Lease shall be deemed to constitute a representation, warrant, covenant, agreement, obligation or stipulation of any present or future director, member, officer, agent or employee of the Lessee in an individual
capacity, and to the extent authorized and permitted by applicable law, no official executing or approving the Lessee’s participation in the Lease shall be liable personally under the Lease or be subject to any personal liability or

(50) years thereafter and Lessor agrees that it will so renew the Lease, at the expiration of the Lease Term upon the same terms and conditions as provided herein. The mere act of holding over the Leased 

  

 -27- 

 
Premises past the expiration of the Lease Term shall constitute notice of the exercise of Lessee’s right of renewal. Except for the payment of rent in
the amount of one dollar ($1.00) per year, payable in full within thirty (30) days of the receipt by Lessee of Lessor’s written demand, no further act of the Lessee shall be necessary to renew the Lease. 
  
 No further action of the Board of Commissioners shall be
required to authorize or effect the renewal granted by this Lease but upon the payment to the Lessor of the rent described in the preceding paragraph, any two (2) members of the Board of Commissioners shall be and are hereby authorized and directed
to execute and deliver any and all documents or instruments necessary or appropriate to effect said renewal to Lessee.

	 	 (a)
	 The Leased Premises shall have been damaged or destroyed (i) to such an extent that it or they cannot be expected reasonably to be repaired, rebuilt or restored,
within a period of twenty-four (24) months from the commencement of repair, rebuilding or restoration, to the condition thereof immediately preceding the damage or destruction, (ii) to such an extent that the Lessee is expected reasonably to be
prevented thereby from carrying on its normal operations therein or thereon for a period of more than twenty-four (24) months, or (iii) to such an extent that the cost of repair, rebuilding or restoration thereof would exceed twenty-five percent

condition of usefulness comparable to that existing prior to the taking, or (ii) to such an extent that the Lessee is expected reasonably to be prevented thereby from carrying on its normal operations therein or thereon for a period of more than
twenty-four (24) months. 

  

	 	 (c)
	 As a result of (i) any changes in the Constitution of the State or the Constitution of the United States of America, any legislative or administrative action
(whether local, State or federal), or (ii) any final decree, judgment or order of any court or administrative body (whether State or federal) entered after a contest in good faith by the Lessor or the Lessee if, in the opinion of Independent Counsel
acceptable to the Lessor, there is no basis which could be argued in good faith upon which to 

  

 -28- 

	 	 
contest the decree, judgment or order: (A) this Lease shall have become void, unenforceable or impossible of performance in accordance with the intent and
purpose of the parties as expressed in this Lease, or (B) unreasonable burdens or excessive liabilities shall have been imposed upon the Lessor or the Lessee with respect to Leased Premises or the use or operation thereof, including without

privately-owned property used for the same general purpose as the Leased Premises. 

  
 To exercise that option, within ninety (90) days following the event authorizing that exercise, or at any time during the continuation of any condition referred to in subparagraph (c) above, the
Lessee shall give written notice to the Lessor. 
  
 The mutual agreements contained in this Section 11.2 are independent of, and constitute an agreement separate and distinct from, any and all provisions of this Lease and shall be unaffected by any fact or circumstance which might impair or

Premises to the Lessor and the Lessor shall lease the Leased Premises back to the Lessee under a lease in a form satisfactory to the Lessee and Lessor. 
  
 Section 11.4. Conveyance on Agreement to Purchase.

 The following shall be “Events of Default” under this Lease: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 Failure to pay any Basic Rent required to be paid hereunder on or prior to the applicable payment date, and continuance of that failure for thirty (30) days
after receipt of written notice from the Lessor of such failure.

	 Except as noted in subparagraph (c) below explicitly with reference to this subparagraph, failure to administer, maintain and operate the Leased Premises as
Hospital Facilities, as contemplated in the Act, or failure to provide the services of the Leased Premises without regard to race, creed, color or national origin, or to comply with Section 2.4 hereof. 

  

	 	 (c)
	 Except upon an event of Force Majeure (as provided below) or as provided below in this subparagraph, failure to observe or perform any covenant, agreement or
obligation on the Lessee’s part to be observed or performed under the Lease, other than as referred to in subparagraphs (a), (b), (d), (e) or (f) of this Section, for a period of ninety (90) days after written notice, by registered or certified
mail, is given to the Lessee by the Lessor, of that failure requesting that it be remedied, unless the Lessor agrees in writing to an extension of that ninety (90) day period prior to its expiration, provided, however, that if the Lessee shall
proceed to take curative action which, if begun and prosecuted with due diligence, cannot be reasonably completed within a period of ninety (90) days, that period shall be increased without a written extension to any extent which shall be necessary
to enable the Lessee to complete the curative action diligently, and provided further that if the observance and performance of any covenant, agreement of obligation to which reference is made in subparagraph (b) or in this subparagraph shall be
prevented by the application of federal or State wage, price or economic stabilization 

  

 -30- 

	 	 
controls, cost containment requirements, restrictions on rates, charges or revenues of the Lessee, federal or state environmental laws or regulations or
regulations or policies imposed by third party payment agencies (if governmental in the case of subparagraph (b) and whether governmental or private in the case of this subparagraph (c)), the inability to observe or perform that covenant, agreement
or obligation shall not constitute an Event of Default, 

  

	 	 (d)
	 Abandonment of the Leased Premises, or of any substantial part thereof, or of the operations thereon contemplated herein, and continuation of that abandonment
for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice is given to the Lessee by the Lessor of the abandonment. 

  
 No event described in subparagraphs (c) and (d) of the preceding paragraph shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder if, by reason of
an event of Force Majeure, the Lessee is unable in whole or in part to carry out the covenants, agreements and obligations to which subparagraph (c) applies, other than the covenants, agreements and obligations on the part of the Lessee to carry
insurance and to pay Basic Rent, Additional Payments and other amounts payable under the Lease, or to which subparagraph (d) applies. The Lessee will give notice promptly to the Lessor of any event of Force Majeure and will use its best efforts to
remedy that event with all reasonable dispatch, provided that the Lessee will not be required to settle strikes, lockouts or other industrial disturbances by acceding to the demands of any opposing Person, when in the Lessee’s judgment, that
course would be unfavorable to it. 
  
 As used
herein, “Force Majeure” means acts of God, fires, epidemics, landslides, floods, strikes, lockouts or other industrial disturbances, acts of public enemies, acts or orders of any kind of any governmental authority, insurrections, riots,

federal bankruptcy law affecting or precluding the declaration or exercise during the pendency of or immediately following any bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization proceedings. 
  
 Section 12.2. Remedies on Default. 
  
 Whenever any Event of Default under Section 12.1 of this Lease shall have occurred and be continuing, any
one or more of the following remedial steps may be taken, provided, however, that if the event of Default is under Section 12.1(c) hereof, only the remedial steps provided in subparagraph (c) below may be taken: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 The Lessor may declare all installments of Basic Rent, Additional Payments and other amounts payable under this Lease for the remainder of the Lease Term to be
immediately due and payable, whereupon those 

  

 -31- 

	 	 
installments of Basic Rent, Additional Payments and other amounts shall become due and payable immediately. 

  

	 	 (b)
	 In accordance with applicable law, the Lessor may 

  

	 	 (i)
	 enter and take possession of the Leased Premises, or any appropriate part thereof, without terminating this Lease, 

  

	 	 (ii)
	 collect rentals and enforce all other remedies of the Lessee under any leases or, or assignment or grants of rights to use or occupy, the Leased Premises, or any
part thereof, but without being deemed to have affirmed the leases, assignments or grants, and 

  

	 	 (iii)
	 enter into new leases, assignments and grants on any terms which the Lessor may deem to be suitable for the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, which leases,
assignment and grants shall not be terminated or affected if the Lessee cures the Event of Default. 

  
 Rentals and other amounts payable under the leases, assignments and grants described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence may be applied by
the Lessor to any costs of administration, operation, repair or maintenance of the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, as the Lessor may reasonably deem useful, and the remaining balance shall be applied to the payment of other amounts payable, or
to become payable, under this Lease or otherwise in the order of priority to be determined by the Lessor in accordance with this Lease. Any balance of the rents and other amounts remaining thereafter shall be paid promptly to the Lessee by the
Lessor in accordance with this Lease, and the Lessor may hold the Lessee liable for the difference between those rents and other amounts payable under this Lease. 
  

	 	 (c)
	 The Lessor may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear necessary or desirable to collect the Basic Rent, Additional Payments and other amounts then
payable, or to become payable, under this Lease, or to enforce the observance and performance of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Lessee under this Lease. 

  
 Before any of the foregoing remedies may be exercised by the Lessor in connection with an Event of Default
under subparagraph (b) of Section 12.1, the Board of Commissioners shall give written notice to the Lessee, that the Board of Commissioners believes that an Event of Default under that subparagraph may have occurred, specifying the charges or
circumstances constituting the alleged Event of Default in sufficient detail that the Lessee will be advised fully of the nature of the charges made against it and will be able to prepare an adequate response thereto. The notice shall fix a date,
time and place for a hearing, which shall be paid for by Lessee, before a hearing officer who shall be a member of the American Arbitration Association or any organization which is nationally recognized as performing the functions now performed by
that Association who is knowledgeable concerning health care facilities reasonably comparable in size and type to the Leased Premises and who shall be mutually acceptable to the Lessee and the Board of Commissioners. The hearing shall be on the
issue of whether an Event 

  

 -32- 

 
of Default has occurred. That date shall not be sooner than thirty (30) days following the giving of that notice. 
  
 At the date, time and place specified in the notice, unless
the Board of Commissioners shall have withdrawn the notice, the Lessee shall be heard on the charges specified in the notice, shall be confronted with the evidence of the alleged Event of Default, shall have the right to examine and to cross-examine
witnesses and may introduce any other evidence and testimony with respect to the alleged Event of Default which the Lessee desires. After the hearing is concluded, the hearing officer shall consider whether an Event of Default has occurred and shall
report his findings or determinations to the Board of Commissioners and the Lessee. 
  
 If the hearing officer determines that an Event of Default has occurred, the Board of Commissioners may give notice of that determination to the Lessee, and of its intention to terminate this
Lease as of a date not earlier than the 30th day following the giving of the notice. If on the date specified for termination, the determination shall not have been enjoined, annulled or otherwise suspended by any judicial authority or suspended or
waived by the Board of Commissioners, this Lease shall be terminated, subject to reinstatement pursuant to Section 12.7 hereof. 
  
 Section 12.3. No Remedy Exclusive. 
  
 Unless provided otherwise herein explicitly, no right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Lessor in this Lease is intended
to be exclusive of any other available right, power or remedy, but each right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right, power, and remedy available under this Lease or existing now or hereafter at law, in
equity, by statute or otherwise, but only to the extent necessary for the protection and benefit of the Lessor. The exercise, the beginning of the exercise, or the partial exercise by the Lessor of any one or more rights, powers or remedies shall
not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Lessor of any or all other rights, powers or remedies. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right, power or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any other right, power
or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of the Event of Default, but any right, power or remedy may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Lessor to exercise any right, power or remedy
reserved to it in this Article, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than as may be required expressly herein. 
  
 Section 12.4. Agreement to Pay Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses. 
  
 In the event that there is an Event of Default or that it shall become necessary for the Lessor, to employ
attorneys or to incur other expenses to collect Basic Rent, Additional Payment or other amounts payable, or to enforce observance or performance of any covenant, agreement or other obligation on the part of the Lessee under this Lease, the Lessee,
on demand therefor, shall reimburse the reasonable fees and expenses of those attorneys, to the extent permitted by law, and will reimburse the other reasonable expenses so incurred. 
  
 If any attorneys’ fees or other expenses are not so reimbursed, the amount thereof, together with
interest thereon at the Interest Rate for Advances from the date of incurrence by the 

  

 -33- 

 
Lessor, shall constitute Additional Payments, and shall be paid by the Lessee on demand. In any action brought to collect those Additional Payments, the
Lessor shall be entitled to the recovery of those Additional Payments, except as limited by law or by judicial order or decision. 
  
 Section 12.5. No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. 
  
 In the event that any covenant, agreement or other obligation under this Lease should be breached by either
the Lessee or the Lessor and the breach should be waived thereafter by the Lessee or the Lessor, as the case may be, the waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other or any subsequent breach
thereunder. No failure by the Lessor to insist upon the strict observance or performance by the Lessee of any covenant, agreement or obligation under this Lease, and no failure to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof,
shall constitute a waiver of any right to strict observance or performance or a waiver of any breach. No express waiver shall be deemed to apply to any other breach or existing or subsequent right to remedy the failure by the Lessee to observe or
perform any covenant, agreement or obligation under this Lease. 
  
 Section 12.6. Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation and Other Laws. 
  
 In the event that there is an Event of Default under this Lease and the Lessee does not contest the existence of the Event of Default, the
Lessee covenants and agrees to waive the benefit of all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws in force from time to time, and all right of appraisement and redemption to which it may be entitled, to the extent that the Lessee
may lawfully do so. 
  
 Section 12.7.
Reinstatement. 
  
 Notwithstanding any
termination of this Lease, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.2, prior to the entry of a judgment in a court of law or equity for enforcement hereof after an opportunity for the Lessee
to be heard, the Lessee may: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 at any time pay, or provide by deposit with the Lessor in a form and amount satisfactory to the Lessor for, 

  

	 	 (i)

	 all costs and expenses of the Lessor occasioned by the Event of Default, and 

  

	 	 (b)
	 cure to the satisfaction of the Lessor all other Events of Default then capable of being cured. 

  
 Upon that payment, deposit and cure (1) this Lease shall be
reinstated fully, as if it had never been terminated, (2) the Lessee shall be restored to the use, occupancy and possession of 

  

 -34- 

 
the Leased Premises, and (3) that payment, deposit and cure shall constitute ipso facto a waiver of the Event of Default and its consequences and an
automatic rescission and annulment of any declaration of acceleration under Section 12.2(a). 
  
 Section 12.8. Right to Observe and Perform Covenants, Agreements and Obligations. 
  
 If the Lessee shall fail to pay when due and payable any Additional Payment or other amount payable, or to observe or perform any
covenant, agreement or obligation, under the Lease, the Lessor, without demand upon the Lessee and without waiving or releasing any covenant, agreement, obligation or Event of Default, upon ten (10) days’ written notice to the Lessee (except
that under emergency conditions, the ten (10) day period shall not be required), may: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 make that payment or perform that covenant, agreement or obligation for the amount and at the expense of the Lessee, although the Lessor, shall not be under any
obligation to do so, 

  

	 	 (b)
	 enter upon the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, for that purpose, and 

  

	 	 (c)
	 take any action which, in the opinion of the Lessor may be necessary or appropriate therefor. 

  
 All payments so made by the Lessor and all costs, fees and
expenses (including, without limitation, to the extent permitted by law, attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the making of that payment or the observance or performance of that covenant,
agreement or obligation by the Lessor, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate for Advances from the date of payment or incurrence, shall constitute Additional Payments and shall be paid by the Lessee on demand. In any action brought to
collect those Additional Payments, the Lessor shall be entitled to the recovery of the Additional Payments, except as limited by law or judicial order or decision. 
  
 Section 12.9. Notice of Default. 
  
 The Lessee will notify the Lessor immediately if the Lessee becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of
Default or any event which, with the passage of time, would become an Event of Default hereunder and which is not cured within the time provided in this Lease. 
  

Section 12.10. Provision Subject to Applicable Law. 
  
 All rights, powers and remedies provided herein may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise
thereof does not violate any applicable law and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Lease invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under any applicable law.
