    4.6 Financial
      Statements.

      reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial
      condition of Borrower, Borrower has furnished Lender with true, correct and
      complete copies of the Financial Statements. The Financial Statements fairly

      results of operations for the periods then ended in conformance with generally
      accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with prior periods.
      The Financial Statements are true, complete and correct and, as of the Effective
      Date, except as set forth in the Estoppel Certificates, no material adverse
      change has occurred since the furnishing of such statements and information.
      As
      of the Effective Date, the Financial Statements, as modified by the Estoppel
      Certificates, do not contain any material untrue statement or omission of a
      material fact and are not misleading in any material respect. Borrower is
      solvent, and no bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding is pending or
      contemplated by or, to the best of its knowledge, against Borrower.

      behalf of Borrower to Lender in connection with the Loan Documents or the
      transactions contemplated thereunder, and all representations and warranties
      made therein, or in any certificate or other instrument delivered in connection
      therewith (collectively, the “Lender Diligence”), are true and correct in all
      material respects as of the Effective Date. The Lender Diligence does not fail
      to state any material fact or circumstance necessary to make the statements
      contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made,
      not
      misleading as of the date of such reports, statements or certificates or other
      data subject to any new information contained in the Estoppel Certificates.
      The
      copies of all agreements and instruments submitted to Lender by Borrower in
      connection with the Loan are true, correct and complete copies and include
      all
      material amendments and modifications of such agreements. 

     

     

    4.8 No
      Default.
      As of
      the Effective Date, except as set forth in the Estoppel Certificates, there
      is
      no existing Event of Default by Borrower under the Loan Documents, under the
      Existing HRT Loan, or under any Lease, and Borrower has no knowledge that any
      event has occurred which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time,
      or
      both, would constitute or result in such an Event of Default.

      Borrower or any Affiliate defaults on the Existing HRT Loan, or any other

      remedies under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, take any one or more
      of
      the following remedial steps concurrently or successively:

     

     

    7.2.1 Acceleration.
      Lender
      may declare the Loan to be immediately due and payable, without presentment
      of
      any kind, demand, notice of dishonor, protest or other notice of any kind,
      all
      of which Borrower hereby waives.

     

     

    7.2.2 Foreclosure.
      Lender
      may foreclose on any and all collateral securing the Loan including the interest
      of Borrower under the Leases, as encumbered by the Mortgage. The proceeds of
      foreclosure shall secure all obligations of the Borrower to Lender under the
      Loan Documents and, under the Existing HRT Loan. 

     

     

    7.2.3 Default
      Under Other Agreements with Lender.
      Lender
      may elect to declare an Event of Default under the Existing HRT Loan, the
      Leases, any New HRT Lease (defined below), any Substitute Lease (defined below),
      and any other lease or loan then in effect between Lender or any Lender
      Affiliate, as Landlord or Lender, and Borrower or any Affiliate, as Tenant
      or
      Borrower. In such event, no 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        16

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    further
      notices or cure periods shall be required under any such loans or leases,
      notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained therein.

     

     

    7.2.4
        Lease
      Modification. In
      addition to any other remedies available to Lender under this Article 7, in
      the
      event following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender does not elect
      to
      terminate or to foreclose upon its lien on the Leases, then upon giving the
      Borrower and Texas-ESC written notice, as set forth in the Lease Amendments,
      Lender may require the Minimum Rent Adjustment to be paid effective as of the
      date of the occurrence of an Event of Default, which is not waived by Lender
      (the “Minimum Rent Adjustment Effective Date”). 

     

     

    7.2.5 Minimum
      Rent Adjustment Collections. Notwithstanding
      any other provisions in this Article 7, from and after the Minimum Rent
      Adjustment Effective Date, (i) any amounts of Minimum Rent Adjustment collected
      by Lender under the Leases shall be credited dollar for dollar against sums
      due
      hereunder with respect to the payment of the Loan as provided in the Lease
      Amendments and (ii) any payments received by Lender as payments due under this
      Loan Agreement, shall also be credited against Minimum Rent Adjustment payments
      and accordingly shall be allocated pro-rata among the then existing Leases
      in
      accordance with Schedule
      A
      and
      credited dollar for dollar against the Minimum Rent Adjustment for each such
      Lease. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the parties
      acknowledge and agree that it is their intent that from and after the Minimum
      Rent Adjustment Effective Date Borrower shall have only one obligation to Lender
      for the repayment of the Loan and that the addition of the Minimum Rent
      Adjustment to the amount due under the Leases is to provide Lender with an
      additional means to collect the amounts due under the Loan from and after the
      Minimum Rent Adjustment Effective Date and not to create a monetary obligation
      of Borrower to Lender above and beyond the amount then due and owing with
      respect to the Loan. The parties further agree that Schedule
      A
      will be
      adjusted in a commercially reasonable fashion
      to
      reflect the future termination , addition, or substitution of any Leases
      hereunder, including any Substitute Leases or New HRT Leases (as defined in
      Section 9.8 below),and that the full amount of the Minimum Rent Adjustment
      will
      be allocated among whatever Leases remain in effect from time to time, as
      contemplated above.

     

     

    7.2.6 Letter
      of Credit. Lender
      shall be entitled to draft the full amount of the Letter of Credit described
      in
      Section 9.1 below, and apply the proceeds of such Letter of Credit as provided
      therein. 

     

     

    7.2.7 Other
      Remedies. Subject
      to the limitations set forth above, Lender may take whatever action

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        17

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    at
      law or
      in equity as may appear necessary or desirable to collect any monies then due
      and/or thereafter to become due.

     

     

    7.2.8 Waiver.
      Without
      waiving any prior or subsequent Event of Default, Lender may waive any Event
      of
      Default or, with or without waiving any Event of Default, remedy any Event
      of
      Default.

     

    ARTICLE
      8: MISCELLANEOUS

     

    8.1 Advances
      by Lender.
      At any
      time and from time to time, Lender may incur and/or pay and/or advance costs
      or
      expenses: [i] which Lender is authorized or has the right (but not necessarily
      the obligation) to incur or may incur under any Loan Document or any law; [ii]
      in exercising any right or remedy provided under any Loan Document or in taking
      any action which Lender is authorized to take under any Loan Document; [iii]
      which are required to be paid by Borrower under any Loan Document or Lease
      Document, but which Borrower fails to pay upon demand; or [iv] from which
      Borrower is required to hold Lender harmless under any Loan Document, but from
      which Borrower fails to hold Lender harmless. Any costs, expenses, or advances
      incurred or paid by Lender shall become part of the Loan and, upon demand,
      shall
      be paid to Lender together with interest thereon at the Default Rate (as defined
      in the Note) from the date of disbursement by Lender.

     

     

    8.2 Intentionally
      Deleted.
      

     

     

    8.3 Construction
      of Rights and Remedies and Waiver of Notice and Consent.

     

     

    8.3.1 Applicability.
      The
      provisions of this §8.3 shall apply to all rights and remedies provided by any
      Loan Document or by law or equity.

     

     

    8.3.2 Waiver
      of Notices and Consent to Remedies.
      Unless
      otherwise expressly provided herein, any right or remedy may be pursued without
      notice to or further consent of Borrower, both of which Borrower
      waives.

     

     

    8.3.3 Cumulative
      Rights.
      Subject
      to the limitations set forth above, each right or remedy under the Loan
      Documents is distinct from but cumulative to each other right or remedy provided
      in the Loan Documents and may be exercised independently of, concurrently with,
      or successively to any other such rights and remedies.

    8.3.4 Extension
      or Modification of Loan.
      No
      extension of time for or modification of amortization of the Loan shall release
      the liability or bar the availability of any right or remedy against Borrower
      or
      any successor in interest, and Lender shall not be required to commence
      proceedings against Borrower or any successor or to extend time for payment
      or
      otherwise to modify amortization of the Loan secured by this Agreement by reason
      of any demand by Borrower or any successor. 

     

     

    8.3.5 Right
      to Select Security.
      Lender
      has the right to proceed at its election against all security or against any
      item or items of such security from time to time, and no action against any
      item
      or items of security shall bar subsequent actions against any item or items
      of
      security. Borrower waives any right to seek marshalling of any assets securing
      the Loan.

     

     

    8.3.6 Forbearance
      Not a Waiver.
      No
      forbearance in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof;
      no forbearance in exercising any right or remedy on any one or more occasions
      shall operate as a waiver thereof on any further occasion; and no single or
      partial exercise of any right or remedy shall preclude any other exercise
      thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.

     

     

    8.3.7 No
      Waiver.
      Failure
      by Lender to insist upon the strict performance of any of the covenants and
      agreements herein set forth or to exercise any rights or remedies upon default
      by Borrower hereunder shall not be considered or taken as a waiver or
      relinquishment for the future of the right to insist upon and to enforce by
      mandamus or other appropriate legal or equitable remedy strict compliance by
      Borrower with all of the covenants and conditions hereof, or of the rights
      to
      exercise any such rights or remedies, if such default by Borrower is continued
      or repeated, or of the right to recover possession of the Facility by reason
      thereof. To the extent permitted by law, any two or more of such rights or
      remedies may be exercised at the same time.

     

     

    8.3.8 No
      Continuing Waivers.
      If any
      covenant or agreement contained in the Loan Documents is breached by Borrower
      and thereafter waived by Lender, such waiver shall be limited to the particular
      breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder.
      No
      waiver shall be binding unless it is in writing and signed by Lender. No course
      of dealing between Lender and Borrower, nor any delay nor omission on the part
      of Lender in exercising any rights under the Loan Documents, shall operate
      as a
      waiver.

    8.3.9 Approval
      Not a Waiver.
      Lender’s review and approval of any contracts relating to a Facility shall not
      constitute a waiver by Lender of any of the terms or requirements of the Loan
      Documents which may conflict with any provision of any such
      contracts.

     

     

    8.3.10 No
      Release.
      Borrower and any other person now or hereafter obligated for the payment or
      performance of all or any part of the Note shall not be released from paying
      and
      performing under the Note by reason of [i] the failure of Lender to comply
      with
      any request of Borrower (or of any other person so obligated), to take action
      to
      enforce any of the provisions of the Loan Documents, or [ii] the release,
      regardless of consideration, of the obligations of any person liable for payment
      or performance of the Note, or any part thereof, or [iii] any agreement or
      stipulation extending the time of payment or modifying the terms of the Note,
      and in the event of such agreement or stipulation, Borrower and all such other
      persons shall continue to be liable under such documents, as amended by such
      agreement or stipulation, unless expressly released and discharged in writing
      by
      Lender.

     

     

    8.4 Assignment.

     

     

    8.4.1 Assignment
      by Lender.
      Lender
      may assign, negotiate, pledge, or transfer this Agreement, the Note and all
      other Loan Documents to any third party or parties for any purpose and, in
      case
      of such assignment, the rights and remedies of Lender shall be enforceable
      against Borrower by such party or parties with the same force and effect and
      to
      the same extent as the same would have been enforceable by Lender but for such
      assignment. 

     

     

    8.4.2 Assignment,
      Merger or Change of Control by Borrower.
      Borrower shall not assign or attempt to assign its rights nor delegate its
      obligations under this Agreement, and any attempt to do so without the prior
      written consent of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld, shall be voidable
      at
      Lender’s election and shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. The Lender
      shall also have the same right to consent to any sale of assets or stock,
      merger, tender offer, proxy contest, business combination or other similar
      transaction of or by Emeritus (or any of the foregoing in a related series
      of
      transactions, which shall be deemed a single transaction) whereby (A) the
      persons who held the voting and economic interests in Emeritus prior to such
      transaction do not hold at least 50% of the voting and economic interests in
      Emeritus or a successor entity following such transaction; or (B) the persons
      who served as members of the board of directors of Emeritus prior to the
      transaction do not constitute a majority of the voting members of the board
      of
      directors of Emeritus or a successor entity following the transaction. Any
      attempt 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        20

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    to
      complete any such transaction without the prior written consent of Lender,
      not
      to be unreasonably withheld, shall be voidable at Lender’s election and shall
      constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

     

     

    8.5 Notices.
      Borrower and Lender hereby agree that all notices, demands, requests, and
      consents (hereinafter “notices”) given pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
      shall be in writing, shall be addressed to the addresses set forth in the
      introductory paragraph of this Agreement and shall be served by [i] personal
      delivery; [ii] certified mail, return receipt requested; [iii] nationally
      recognized overnight courier; or [iv] by facsimile, provided that a copy thereof
      is mailed by certified mail promptly thereafter. All notices shall be deemed
      to
      be given upon the earlier of actual receipt (provided, that in the case of
      facsimiles, any facsimile received after 5:00 p.m. local time shall be deemed
      received on the next Business Day) or three days after deposit in the United
      States mail or one Business Day after deposit with the overnight courier. Any
      notices meeting the requirements of this Section shall be effective, regardless
      of whether or not actually received. Lender and Borrower may change their notice
      address at any time by giving the other party notice of such
      change.

     

     

    8.6 Entire
      Agreement.
      This
      Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Lease Documents, and any other
      documents referred to herein constitute the entire agreement between Borrower
      and Lender with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior
      negotiations, discussions or writings with respect thereto. No representations,
      warranties, and agreements have been made by Lender except as set forth in
      such
      documents. If there is any conflict between the terms and provisions of the
      Commitment and the terms of this Agreement, this Agreement shall
      govern.

     

     

    8.7 Severability.
      If any
      term or provision of this Agreement is held or deemed by a court of competent
      jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such holding shall not affect
      the
      remainder of this Agreement and the same shall remain in full force and
      effect.

     

     

    8.8 Captions
      and Headings.
      The
      captions and headings are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for
      reference and in no way define, limit or describe the scope of this Agreement
      or
      the intent of any provision thereof.

      State.

    8.11 Modification
      of this Agreement. This
      Agreement may only be modified by a writing signed by both Lender and Borrower.
      All references to this Agreement, whether in this Agreement or in any other
      document or instrument, shall be deemed to incorporate all amendments,
      modifications, and renewals of this Agreement made after the date hereof. If
      Borrower requests Lender’s consent to any change in ownership, merger or
      consolidation of Borrower, any assumption of the Loan, or any modification
      of
      the Loan Documents, Borrower shall provide Lender all relevant information
      and
      documents sufficient to enable Lender to evaluate the request. In connection
      with any such request, Borrower shall pay Lender’s actual reasonable attorney’s
      fees and expenses and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
      connection with Lender’s evaluation of Borrower’s request, the preparation of
      any documents and amendments, the subsequent amendment of any documents between
      Lender and its collateral pool lenders (if applicable), and all related
      matters.

     

     

    8.12 Construction
      of Agreement.
      This
      Agreement has been prepared by Lender and its professional advisors and reviewed
      by Borrower and its professional advisors. Lender, Borrower and their advisors
      believe that this Agreement is the product of all their efforts, it expresses
      their agreement, and that it shall not be interpreted in favor of either Lender
      or Borrower or against either Lender or Borrower merely because of their efforts
      in preparing it.

     

     

    8.13 Counterparts.
      This
      Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be
      deemed an original hereof.

     

     

    8.14 No
      Third-Party Beneficiary Rights.
      No
      person not a party to this Agreement, a successor party or an assignee of a
      party shall have or enjoy any rights hereunder, and all third-party beneficiary
      rights are expressly negated. 

     

     

    8.15 Lender’s
      and Borrower’s Authority to Furnish Copies of Loan Documents.
      Lender
      may exhibit or furnish the Loan Documents or copies thereof to any potential
      transferee of the Loan (whether such transfer is absolute or collateral) and
      Lender and Borrower may exhibit or furnish the Loan Documents or copies thereof
      to any governmental or regulatory authority in connection with any legal,
      administrative or regulatory proceedings requiring the disclosure of the terms
      of the Loan Documents, to Lender’s or Borrower’s attorneys, auditors and
      underwriters, and to any other person or entity for which there is a legitimate
      business purpose for such disclosure.

    8.16 Lender
      Merely a Lender.

     

     

    8.16.1 No
      Agency.
      Lender
      is not and will not be in any way the agent for or trustee of Borrower. Lender
      does not intend to act in any way for or on behalf of Borrower in disbursing
      the
      proceeds of the Loan. Lender does not intend to be and is not and will not
      be
      responsible for the completion of any improvements erected or to be erected
      upon
      the land; the payment of bills or any other details in connection with the
      land
      and improvements; any plans and specifications prepared in connection with
      the
      land and improvements; or Borrower’s relations with any contractors,
      subcontractors, materialmen, or laborers performing work or supplying materials
      for the land and improvements.

     

     

    8.16.2 No
      Obligation to Pay.
      This
      Agreement is not to be construed by Borrower or anyone furnishing labor,
      materials, or any other work or product for improving any Facility as an
      agreement upon the part of Lender to assure that anyone will be paid for
      furnishing such labor, materials, or any other work or product. Borrower shall
      be solely responsible for such payments.

     

    ARTICLE
      9: ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS 

     

    9.1 Collateral.
      Without
      limitation, the Loan shall be secured by the following collateral:

     

     

    9.1.1
      Mortgage.
      The Loan
      shall be secured by all real property and other collateral described in the
      Mortgage, including any Personal Property assigned or pledged thereunder. A
      schedule of all Personal Property for each Facility shall also be provided
      by
      Borrower to Lender, and updated from time to time, at Lender’s request. Borrower
      shall execute such UCC financing statements and other documents as Lender may
      reasonably require to perfect any security interest granted in the Mortgage
      or
      otherwise to secure the performance of Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

     

     

    9.1.2 Letter
      of Credit.
      The
      Loan shall also be secured by an unconditional, irrevocable Letter of Credit
      issued by a bank reasonably acceptable to Lender (the “Issuer”) in the amount of
      $1,000,000.00, for a term of at least one year, and, unless earlier terminated
      by the Issuer in accordance with the terms thereof, automatically renewable
      thereafter for an additional term of at least one year unless the same expires
      by its terms at least thirty (30) days after the Maturity Date, and otherwise
      in
      form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender (the “Letter of Credit”).
      The Letter of Credit will secure all other obligations of Borrower to Lender
      under the Loan Agreement as 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        23

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    well.
      Without limitation, the Letter of Credit will be an unconditional sight draft
      containing the following language as the same may be modified with the consent
      of Lender:

     

    WE
      HEREBY
      OPEN OUR CLEAN, IRREVOCABLE STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT IN YOUR FAVOR FOR THE
      ACCOUNT OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED APPLICANT IN THE AGGREGATE OF USD $1,000,000.00
      AVAILABLE BY PAYMENT AT OUR COUNTERS WHEN ACCOMPANIED BY THE
      FOLLOWING:

    

    1.
      A
      DRAFT DRAWN AT SIGHT ON [INSERT NAME OF ISSUING BANK] AND DULY ENDORSED ON
      ITS
      REVERSE SIDE THEREOF BY THE BENEFICIARY, SPECIFICALLY REFERENCING THIS LETTER
      OF
      CREDIT NUMBER.

    

    2.
      THE
      ORIGINAL LETTER OF CREDIT PLUS ANY AND ALL AMENDMENTS ATTACHED
      THERETO.

    

    WE
      HEREBY
      AGREE WITH YOU THAT DRAFT(S) DRAWN UNDER AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS AND
      CONDITIONS OF THIS CREDIT SHALL BE DULY HONORED IF PRESENTED AT OUR OFFICES
      LOCATED AT [INSERT LOCATION FOR PRESENTATION] ON OR BEFORE THE ABOVE STATED
      EXPIRY DATE, OR ANY EXTENDED DATE THEREOF IF APPLICABLE.

    

    IT
      IS A
      CONDITION OF THIS LETTER OF CREDIT THAT IT SHALL BE DEEMED AUTOMATICALLY
      EXTENDED WITHOUT WRITTEN AMENDMENT FOR ONE YEAR FROM THE PRESENT OR ANY FUTURE
      EXPIRY DATE UNLESS AT LEAST SIXTY (60) DAYS PRIOR TO SUCH EXPIRATION DATE,
      ISSUER SENDS THE BENEFICIARY NOTICE BY CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED,
      OR BY RECOGNIZED NATIONAL OVERNIGHT COURIER, THAT ISSUER ELECTS NOT TO EXTEND
      THE LETTER OF CREDIT BEYOND THE CURRENT EXPIRY DATE OR ANY EXTENDED DATE
      THEREOF. [NOTE: LENDER AND BORROWER AGREE THAT THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL NOT BE
      REQUIRED IF THE EXPIRATION DATE OF THE LETTER OF CREDIT IS AT LEAST THIRTY
      (30)
      DAYS AFTER THE MATURITY DATE OF THE LOAN].

    

    Borrower
      and Lender agree that upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default
      hereunder, which is not cured within any applicable notice, grace and/or cure
      period, Lender may draft the full amount of the Letter of Credit and

    
      
        
        

      

      
        24

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    apply
      the
      full proceeds of the Letter of Credit to the payment of any obligations of
      Borrower to Lender arising under this Agreement or the Loan. 

    

    All
      other
      terms of the Letter of Credit must be reasonably satisfactory to Lender. The
      Letter of Credit shall be delivered to Lender as part of the Closing. If
      Borrower is unable to provide Lender with the original Letter of Credit at
      Closing, Borrower shall deliver directly to Lender at Closing One Million and
      no/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) by wire transfer of federal funds available
      for
      immediate disbursement, and Lender will hold such funds as security for all
      obligations of Borrower under this Agreement until such time as Borrower is
      able
      to furnish Lender with the Letter of Credit required hereunder. So long as
      Borrower provides Lender with the required One Million and no/100 Dollars
      ($1,000,000.00) cash collateral at the Closing, Borrower’s inability to furnish
      the Letter of Credit will not constitute an Event of Default
      hereunder.

    

    Borrower
      agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Letter of Credit
      in
      the form required above, but if the Issuer will not issue an automatically
      renewable Letter of Credit, the inability of Borrower to obtain the renewable
      Letter of Credit shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder; however,
      Borrower will have the duty either (i) to give Lender written notice at least
      sixty (60) days prior to the expiration date of the Letter of Credit that the
      Letter of Credit will not renew or (ii) within at least thirty (30) days prior
      to the expiration date of the Letter of Credit, provide a replacement Letter
      of
      Credit meeting the requirements of this Section 9.1. Failure of Borrower to
      give
      such notice or provide such replacement Letter of Credit shall authorize Lender
      to draw on the Letter of Credit which it is then holding at anytime thereafter
      without further notice or opportunity to cure, whether or not there is then
      outstanding an Event of Default hereunder, and Lender will then hold such funds
      as security for all obligations of Borrower under this Agreement until the
      earlier to occur of (i) such time, if any, as Borrower delivers to Lender a
      Letter of Credit meeting the requirements of this Section 9.1, at which time
      such proceeds shall be returned to Borrower or (ii) there is then outstanding

    9.4 Assignment
      of Certain Lease Rights.
      To the
      extent permitted by law, Borrower irrevocably assigns to Lender Borrower’s right
      to treat any Lease as terminated and all other rights of Borrower under 11
      U.S.C. Section 365 (h)(1)(A)(i) or any comparable provision of law, including
      Borrower’s right to exercise any option to reject or terminate the Lease, any
      right of Borrower to object to any sale of any Facility or any interest in
      any
      Facility and under Section 11 U.S.C. 363, or otherwise, in any bankruptcy or
      insolvency proceeding affecting Borrower or any Lease. To the extent permitted
      by law, this assignment of Borrower’s rights is absolute and shall last until
      such time as the Loan has been fully satisfied and the Mortgage has been
      released. At such time, Borrower’s rights under the applicable bankruptcy or
      insolvency laws shall automatically vest in Borrower.

     

     

    9.5 RESERVED.
      

     

     

    9.6 Claims
      Against Lender.
      Borrower has no claims of any type against Lender or any Lender Affiliate or
      any
      other rights of offset against the Note, counterclaims, or any defenses against
      payment obligations under the Note or the Existing HRT Loan arising prior to
      or
      upon the Effective Date. Borrower waives the right to any such claims of offset,
      counterclaims, or defenses, known or unknown, arising prior to the Effective
      Date. Borrower releases any claim it might have against Lender or any Lender
      Affiliate based upon any circumstances occurring prior to the Effective Date,
      whether known or unknown. Without limitation, Borrower acknowledges that Lender
      has properly performed all of its obligations under the Leases through the
      Effective Date and under the existing HRT Loan through the Effective Date.
      

     

     

    9.7 Demolitions
      or Alterations of Facilities.
      Borrower will not make or permit any demolitions or material alterations of
      any
      improvements located at any Facilities without the prior written consent of
      Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld; except as otherwise required or
      permitted without Landlord’s consent under the Lease Documents in which case
      Lender’s consent shall not be required. 

     

     

    9.8 Substitution
      and Addition of Facilities Securing Loan.
      Subject
      to the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably
      withheld, the Mortgage of a particular Lease may be released and replaced with
      new collateral upon request by Borrower as follows: (i) Borrower may grant
      a
      leasehold mortgage in favor of Lender on its interest with respect to a
      substitute facility (“Substitute Facility”) under a substitute lease
      (“Substitute Lease”) with equal or better economics (not leased from Lender) or
      (ii) Borrower, or an affiliate, as Tenant, and Lender, or an affiliate, as
      Landlord, may enter into one or more new 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        26

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    leases
      for additional Facilities (each a “New HRT Lease”). In determining whether or
      not to give such consent to substitution of collateral, Lender may consider
      commercially reasonably factors including, without limitation, occupancy rates,
      debt service coverage ratios, total revenues, total expenses, and EBITDARM
      for
      the proposed Substitute Facility, as well as the value that a New HRT Lease
      would contribute to the existing Lender/Borrower portfolio. Borrower shall
      pay
      all reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs of Lender incurred in connection
      with consideration of the proposed substitution of collateral. If Lender agrees
      to the substitution of collateral, then a Mortgage shall be provided for the
      Substitute Lease in the same form as the Mortgage encumbering the replaced
      Facility, and all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement
      with respect to Facilities shall be deemed to be effective with respect to
      the
      Mortgage of the Substitute Lease and the Substitute Facility as of the effective
      date of the substituted Mortgage. On such date, the existing Mortgage which
      is
      being replaced will be released of record. All costs incurred in connection
      with
      the substitution of collateral transaction will be paid by Borrower, including,
      without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of title insurance,
      survey, environmental assessment, property condition reports, and similar
      commercial loan items as may be reasonably required by Lender.

     

     

    9.9 Indemnity.
      Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless for any claims, losses,
      expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and consultant fees),
      liabilities, or other losses incurred as a result of the breach of any
      representations, warranties, or covenants contained in the Loan
      Documents.

     

    9.10 Consent
      to Jurisdiction.
      Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to and consents to the non-exclusive
      jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court having jurisdiction over
      Davidson County, Tennessee for any action or proceeding to enforce or defend
      any
      matter arising from or related to this Agreement, the Note, or any other Loan
      Document. Borrower hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent Borrower
      may
      effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance
      of
      any such action or proceeding in Davidson County, Tennessee. Borrower agrees
      that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive
      and
      may be enforced in any other jurisdiction by suit on a judgment or in any other
      manner provided by law. Borrower and any guarantor agree not to institute any
      legal action or proceeding against Lender or any director, officer, employee,
      agent or property of Lender concerning any manner arising out of or relating
      to
      this Agreement, the Note or any loan document other than in a state or federal
      court having jurisdiction over Davidson County, Tennessee, or if such court
      lacks subject matter or in personam jurisdiction, such action or proceeding
      may
      be brought in any court which has such jurisdiction. Borrower hereby consents
      to
      service of process by Lender in any manner and in any jurisdiction permitted
      by
      law. Nothing herein shall affect or impair Lender’s right to serve legal process
      in any manner permitted

    by
      law,
      or Lender’s right to bring any action proceeding against Borrower or the
      property of Borrower or any guarantor in the courts of any other jurisdiction.
      

     

    TO
      THE
      FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER AND LENDER, HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND
      VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR
      COUNTER CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE, OR ANY
      LOAN DOCUMENT.

      of

    5. Prepayment.
      Borrower
      shall have the privilege of prepaying this Note in whole or in part at any
      time
      upon at least 9 months prior written notice to Lender; provided, however, no
      such prepayment shall be permitted prior to January 1, 2007 without the prior
      written consent of Lender, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion
      of Lender.

     

    6. Late
      Charge.
      Borrower
      acknowledges that any default in any payment due under this Note will result
      in
      loss and additional expense to Lender in handling such delinquent payments
      and
      meeting Lender’s other financial obligations. Because such loss and additional
      expense is extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain, Borrower agrees
      that if any payment hereunder (other than the final payment on maturity) is
      not
      paid within 10 days after the due date, Borrower shall pay, as a reasonable
      estimate of such loss and expense, and in addition to other amounts due
      hereunder, a late charge equal to the lesser of [i] 5% of the amount of the
      overdue payment, or [ii] the maximum amount permitted by applicable
      law.

     

    7. Application
      of Payments.
      Unless
      Lender elects otherwise, in its sole discretion, all payments and other amounts
      received by Lender pursuant to this Note shall be credited as follows: [i]
      first
      to any charges, costs, expenses and fees payable by Borrower under this Note,
      the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, or incurred by Lender for the protection
      of
      any collateral securing the payment of this Note, if not paid by Borrower by
      the
      due date after the expiration of any applicable grace period; [ii] second to
      interest on the foregoing amounts at the Default Rate from the due date or
      date
      of payment by Lender, as the case may be; [iii] third to accrued but unpaid
      interest on this Note; [iv] fourth, to the principal amount outstanding; and
      [v]
      the balance, if any, to Borrower.

     

    8. Default.
      Failure
      to pay any amount owed under this Note within ten (10) days after such payment
      is due shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. The occurrence of an
      Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or Mortgage shall be an Event of
      Default hereunder. 

     

    9. Acceleration.
      Upon the
      occurrence of any Event of Default, in addition to all other remedies under
      the
      Loan Agreement, Mortgage, any other security for or guarantee of this Note,
      and
      at law or in equity, at the option of Lender [i] the outstanding principal
      balance of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon

    
      
        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    and
      all
      other amounts payable by Borrower to Lender shall be immediately due and
      payable, and [ii] all such amounts shall bear interest at the Default Rate
      from
      the date of the Event of Default until paid. Lender may exercise either or
      both
      options without notice or demand of any kind.

     

    10. Governing
      Law.
      This
      Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws
      of
      the State, without giving effect to the conflict of laws rules
      thereof.

     

    11. Time
      is of the Essence.
      Time is
      of the essence in the payment of this Note. All grace periods in the Loan
      Agreement and any Collateral Document that apply to a default shall run
      concurrently.

     

    12. Holidays.
      If any
      installment of this Note becomes due on a day which is not a Business Day,
      Borrower may pay the installment on the next succeeding Business
      Day.

     

    13. Waivers;
      Cumulative Rights and Remedies.
      None of
      the following shall be a course of dealing, estoppel, waiver or the like on
      which Borrower, Lender or any party to any Collateral Document may rely: [i]
      Lender’s acceptance of one or more late or partial payments; [ii] Lender’s
      forbearance from exercising any right or remedy under this Note or any
      Collateral Document; or [iii] Lender’s forbearance from exercising any right or
      remedy under this Note or any Collateral Document on any one or more occasions.
      Lender’s exercise of any rights or remedies or a part of a right or remedy on
      one or more occasions shall not preclude Lender from exercising the right or
      remedy at any other time. Lender’s rights and remedies under this Note, the
      Collateral Documents, and the law and equity are cumulative to, but independent
      of, each other.

     

    14. Representations.
      Borrower: [i] acknowledges that Lender would not have extended the credit
      evidenced by this Note but for the obligations of Borrower hereunder and under
      the Collateral Document; [ii] warrants that it has executed this Note or
      Collateral Document to induce Lender to extend and to continue to extend the
      credit; and [iii] warrants that it has received good and valuable consideration
      for executing this Note or any Collateral Document.

     

    15. Indulgences.
      Without
      notice, Lender may do or refrain from doing anything affecting this Note or
      any
      Collateral Document, as many times as Lender desires, including the following:
      [i] granting or not granting any indulgences to anyone liable for payment of
      this Note or to anyone liable under any Collateral Document; [ii] releasing
      any
      security or anyone or any property from liability on this Note or any Collateral
      Document; [iii] amending this Note or any Collateral Document, including
      extending the time for payment of this Note, in accordance with the terms of
      Section 25 or 30 of this Note and as provided in the Collateral
      Documents.

     

    16. No
      Release of Liability.
      No
      obligations of Borrower shall be affected by [i] any default in this Note or
      any
      Collateral Document which default is

    waived
      by
      Lender; [ii] the unenforceability of or defect in this Note or in any Collateral
      Document or any interest conveyed by any Collateral Document; [iii] any decline
      in the value of any interest in any property conveyed by any Collateral
      Document; or, [iv] the death, incompetence, insolvency, dissolution, liquidation
      or winding up of affairs of Borrower, Lender or any party to this Note or any
      Collateral Document or the start of insolvency proceedings by or against any
      such party. BORROWER
      WAIVES ALL SURETYSHIP AND OTHER
      SIMILAR DEFENSES. Neither
      Borrower nor any party to any Collateral Document may enforce any right of
      subrogation or contribution unless and until this Note is paid in full and
      not
      subject to recovery as a preference under applicable insolvency law, and waives
      all rights of subrogation against any party that is subject to insolvency
      proceedings unless and until this Note is so paid in full.

      All

      declaration that this Note is immediately due and payable in full, all other
      notices, and all other demands.

     

    21. Savings
      Clause.
      The
      intention of Lender and Borrower is to comply with the laws of the State and
      the
      federal government concerning the rate of interest on this Note. Notwithstanding
      any other provision in this Note or in any other document given in connection
      with this Note, Borrower shall not be required to pay interest in excess of
      the
      maximum lawful rate under applicable law. If a court of competent jurisdiction
      should determine that applicable law concerning the maximum lawful rate of
      interest on this Note is not that of the State, it is the intention of the
      parties to comply with the law of the state whose law is, in fact, applicable
      concerning the maximum lawful rate of interest on this Note. To the extent
      the
      amount of interest provided in this Note ever exceeds the maximum lawful rate
      (the “Excess Interest”), [i] the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and
      control; [ii] Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; [iii]
      any Excess Interest that Lender may have received shall be credited against
      the
      then outstanding balance due under this Note and, if the Excess Interest exceeds
      the outstanding balance, the excess amount shall be refunded to Borrower; [iv]
      the rate of interest under this Note or the Default Rate, as applicable, shall
      be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate and this Note and any other
      documents given in connection therewith shall be deemed reformed and modified
      to
      reflect such reduction; and [v] subject to the foregoing provisions of this
      paragraph, Borrower shall have no action or remedy against Lender for any
      damages whatsoever or any defense to enforcement of this Note or any other
      documents given in connection therewith arising out of the payment or collection
      of any Excess Interest. In determining whether interest paid or payable on
      this
      Note exceeds the maximum lawful rate, Borrower agrees to exclude voluntary
      prepayment fees from the calculation of interest and to spread the total amount
      of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of this Note.

     

    22. Attorney’s
      Fees and Expenses.
      Borrower
      shall pay to Lender all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in
      connection with the Loan and the security for the Loan, enforcing or preserving
      Lender’s rights under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, or any other
      Collateral Document, and in all matters of collection and administration,
      whether or not an Event of Default has actually occurred or has been declared
      and thereafter cured, including but not limited to, [i] attorneys’ and
