8.3 Additional Covenants of Management Company. Management Company hereby makes the additional covenants set forth in this Section, which are material covenants and upon which Tenant relies as an inducement to enter into this Agreement:
| (a) | Assignment. Management Company may not assign its rights and obligations hereunder without Tenant’s prior approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld as more particularly set forth in this Section 8.3(a). For purposes of this Section 8.3(a), a change in fifty percent (50%) or more in the ownership or control, whether direct or indirect, of Management Company, shall be deemed to be an effective assignment of |
27
| this Agreement requiring Tenant’s prior approval. Tenant shall consent to such an assignment or change in the ownership or control of Management Company in the event that the proposed transferee or the transferee’s owners (collectively, the “Transferee”) meets the following criteria: (a) the Transferee has the financial capacity that equals or exceeds that which Management Company has as of the date of this Agreement; (b) such Transferee is known to be of good character and in good standing in its current business dealings; (c) such Transferee is experienced in the senior living facility industry; and (d) such Transferee has all licenses and industry approvals that a manager must hold to manage the Facility. For purposes of clarification, it shall not be deemed unreasonable for Tenant to withhold consent to any such transfer if the Transferee lacks, in Tenant’s reasonable opinion, (x) the financial wherewithal, (y) the character (which determination may be made, in whole or in part, based on Tenant’s or its Affiliate’s past dealings with the intended transferee), or (z) the quality and relevant experience necessary to satisfy the obligations of Tenant hereunder. Any proposed Transferee shall be required to provide adequate assurances to Tenant: (l) that Revenues shall not decline substantially after the date of such transfer; (m) of the continuous operation of the Facility in strict accordance with the requirements of this Agreement; and (n) of such other matters as Tenant may reasonably require at the time of such transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any change in ownership or control that directly results from the death of any person with a controlling interest in Management Company shall not be subject to this Section 8.3 provided that the individuals managing the day-to-day operations at the Facility remain substantially the same following the transfer of ownership or control and the new controlling person or owner satisfies the criteria stated in items (x), (y), and (z) of this Section 8.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Management Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide written notice to Tenant in the event that there is any change in the ownership of Management Company, whether direct or indirect, regardless of whether such change constitutes a change of more than fifty percent (50%) of the direct or indirect ownership of Management Company, which notice shall be delivered no later than five (5) Business Days following the effectuation of any such change. Management Company shall also provide Tenant with an updated organizational chart showing the direct and indirect ownership interests in and to Management Company that is true, complete and correct within five (5) days of receipt of Tenant’s written request therefore. |
| (b) | Tenant Assignment. Management Company acknowledges and agrees that Tenant may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without prior approval of Management Company to an Affiliate of Tenant or to a third party in connection with the sale of the Facility. |
28
| (c) | Transfer of Residents. Management Company agrees that it will not, as long as it manages for Tenant under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Tenant, encourage or solicit the transfer of any resident of the Facility to another facility in which Management Company has an interest which is not owned by Tenant, unless the physical or medical condition of the resident indicates that such a transfer would be appropriate. The Management Company may, however, freely discuss and not inhibit such a transfer when the original basis for the subject resident to be admitted to the Tenant’s Facility was to acquire temporary accommodations until a room became available in another facility where the resident prefers to live. |
| (d) | Non-Compete. Management Company hereby covenants and agrees that, for a period commencing on the Effective Date and ending one (1) year following the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, Management Company shall not, and shall cause all of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (each, a “Covered Person”) not to, either (1) Compete, directly or indirectly, with the Facility by engaging, in any capacity, in operating or managing a senior living facility within five (5) driving miles of the Facility or (2) specifically solicit any employees of the Facility for employment at other facilities owned or controlled by a Covered Person (provided nothing herein shall prevent a Covered Person from hiring any employee of the Facility who responds to a Covered Person’s advertisement or other notice that is not specifically targeted at employees of the Facility). For purposes of this provision, “Compete” means (i) to, directly or indirectly, conduct, facilitate, participate or engage in, or bid for or otherwise pursue a business, whether as a principal, sole proprietor, partner, stockholder, or agent of, or consultant to or manager for, any Person, or (ii) to, directly or indirectly, have any ownership interest in any Person or business which conducts, facilitates, participates or engages in, or bids for or otherwise pursues a business, whether as a principal, sole proprietor, partner, stockholder, or agent of, or consultant to or manager for, any such Person, in each case except as a passive investor with a non-controlling interest in such Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 8.3(d) shall not apply to or in any way prohibit or restrict any existing ownership interests or operations of a Covered Person as of the Effective Date. The parties recognize and acknowledge that a breach of this Section 8.3(d) by Management Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates will cause irreparable and material loss and damage to Tenant and hereby consent to the granting by any court of competent jurisdiction of an injunction or other equitable relief, without the necessity of posting a bond, cash or otherwise, and without the necessity of actual monetary loss being proved or Tenant’s establishing the inadequacy of any remedy at law, and order that the breach or threatened breach of such provisions may be effectively restrained. The provisions of this Section 8.3(d) shall expressly survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. This provision, however, shall not apply following any termination of this Agreement arising out of Section 7.2, Section 7.6 or if the Agreement is deemed void ab initio pursuant to Section 7.9. |
29
| (e) | Non-Solicitation. Management Company agrees not to directly or indirectly solicit, divert or accept business from any customer, supplier, distributor or manufacturer of or to the Facility to the detriment of Tenant or any Affiliate of Tenant, or otherwise interfere with the relationship between Tenant or any Affiliate of Tenant in connection with the Facility and any customer, supplier, distributor or manufacturer of or to Tenant or any Affiliate of Tenant to the detriment of Tenant or any Affiliate of Tenant in connection with the Facility. The parties recognize and acknowledge that a breach of this Section 8.3(e) by Management Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates will cause irreparable and material loss and damage to Tenant and hereby consent to the granting by any court of competent jurisdiction of an injunction or other equitable relief, without the necessity of posting a bond, cash or otherwise, and without the necessity of actual monetary loss being proved or Tenant’s establishing the inadequacy of any remedy at law, and order that the breach or threatened breach of such provisions may be effectively restrained. The provisions of and obligations under this Section 8.3(e) shall apply throughout the Term and shall expressly survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year following such expiration or earlier termination. This provision, however, shall not apply following any termination of this Agreement arising out of Section 7.2, Section 7.6 or if the Agreement is deemed void ab initio pursuant to Section 7.9. |
| (f) | Right of First Opportunity. Management Company hereby covenants and agrees that, for a period commencing on the Effective Date and ending one (1) year following the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, Management Company shall not, and shall cause any Covered Person not to develop, acquire or lease a senior living facility within five (5) driving miles of the Facility (a “Competitive Property”) without first offering Tenant an opportunity to co-invest in the Competitive Property as set forth in this paragraph. If a Covered Person desires to develop, own, or lease a Competitive Property, Management Company shall deliver the following notices to Tenant: (1) written notice to Tenant promptly upon any Covered Person commencing substantive analysis, planning and or underwriting activities with respect to the potential development, acquisition or leasing of a Competitive Property (the “Competitive Property Notice”), including a detailed written description of the Competitive Property or, in the case of a potential development of a Competitive Property, a detailed written description of the proposed location of such Competitive Property and a general description, to the extent available, of the type, size and scope of the Competitive Property to be developed, and (2), upon finalizing the terms of the proposed investment in the Competitive Property that was subject to the Competitive Property Notice, written notice of such proposed investment including a detailed written description thereof (the “Investment Notice”), not less than thirty (30) days prior to the day on which the proposed investment is expected to close after commercially reasonable efforts by the applicable Covered Person to coordinate its |
30
| process to give the Tenant maximum knowledge and information regarding such potential Competitive Property investment, together with any and all investment memoranda, investment summaries, projections, pro forma financial statements and other materials reasonably required to evaluate the proposed investment, including those that may be reasonably requested by the Tenant after its receipt of the Investment Notice (collectively, the “Investment Materials”). Following delivery of an Investment Notice, Tenant shall have the right, exercisable by delivering written notice to the Management Company within twenty (20) days after their receipt of the Investment Notice (the “Response Period”), to elect to, or to have an Affiliate, invest with such Covered Person (which investment shall be in place of any investment otherwise to have been made by any third party(ies)). In such event, the investment shall have the economic terms provided in the Investment Notice (which shall be no worse than the most favored terms provided prior to the expiration of the Response Period to any other unaffiliated potential or actual investor with respect to such potential Competitive Property investment). Throughout the Response Period, Management Company agrees to negotiate in good faith with the Tenant regarding the terms of and all other matters relating to such Competitive Property investment. If Tenant delivers written notice to the Management Company stating that it and/or its Affiliates have elected not to invest in the Competitive Property, or if the Tenant fails to deliver a written notice to the Management Company by the expiration of the Response Period stating that it and/or its Affiliates have elected to invest in the Competitive Property, then the Covered Person shall have the right to pursue the Competitive Property with a third party other than the Tenant and/or its Affiliates, so long as the economic terms of the investment do not demonstrably change favorably to the investor by more than seven percent (7%) (and if the terms do so change, a new right of first opportunity to Tenant shall be triggered hereunder). Tenant’s election (or deemed election) not to invest in a Competitive Property shall not be deemed an election by Tenant with respect to any future Competitive Property, and the Tenant’s right with respect to any such future Competitive Property shall be subject to the requirements of this Section 8.3(f). This provision, however, shall not apply following any termination of this Agreement arising out of Section 7.2, Section 7.6, or if the Agreement is deemed void ab initio pursuant to Section 7.9. |
8.4 Additional Covenants of Tenant. Tenant hereby makes the additional covenants set forth in this Section, which are material covenants and upon which Management Company relies as an inducement to enter into this Agreement:
| (a) | Tenant will cooperate with Management Company in every reasonable respect and will furnish Management Company with all information required by it for the performance of its services hereunder and will permit Management Company to examine and copy any data in the possession or control of Tenant affecting Management Company and/or operation of the Facility and will in every way cooperate with Management Company to enable Management Company to perform its services hereunder. |
31
| (b) | Tenant will examine documents submitted by Management Company and render decisions pertaining thereto, when required, promptly to avoid unreasonable delay in the progress of Management Company’s work. Tenant agrees that it will not unreasonably fail to execute and deliver all applications and other documents that may be deemed by Management Company to be necessary or proper to be executed by Tenant in connection with the Facility, subject to the limitations in this Agreement with respect to the Budget and other rights of Tenant. |
| (c) | Tenant acknowledges that Management Company retains all ownership and other rights in all proprietary systems, manuals, materials, trade names, branding and other information, in whatever form, developed by Management Company in the performance of its services hereunder (other than any trademarks, trade names or other intellectual property acquired by Tenant or Landlord in connection with the acquisition of the Facility), and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as a license or transfer of such information either during the Term or thereafter. Upon termination of this Agreement all such proprietary systems manuals, materials and other information in whatever form shall be removed from the Facility by Management Company. |
| (d) | Tenant shall comply with all Legal Requirements which are applicable to Tenant provided that Tenant, at its sole expense and without cost to Management Company, shall have the right to contest by proper legal proceedings the validity, so far as applicable to it, of any such Legal Requirement, provided that such contest shall not result in a suspension of operations of the Facility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Tenant shall not be deemed to be in breach of the covenant contained in this clause (d) if Tenant’s failure to so comply is the result of a failure by Management Company to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement. |
8.5 Binding Agreement. The terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements herein contained shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors and assigns.
8.6 Relationship of Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute or be construed to be or to create a partnership, joint venture or lease between Tenant and Management Company with respect to the Facility. Management Company shall have no right or authority, express or implied, to commit or otherwise obligate Tenant in any manner whatsoever except to the extent specifically provided in this Agreement.

8.7 Notices.
| (a) | If Management Company shall desire the approval of Tenant to any matter, Management Company will give written notice by mail or email to Tenant that it requests such approval, specifying in the notice the matter as to which approval is requested and reasonable detail respecting the matter. If Tenant shall not respond negatively in writing by mail or email and to the notice within 10 days after the sending thereof (unless some other period for response is specified in this Agreement), Management Company may send a second such notice in such fashion to Tenant. If Tenant shall not respond negatively in writing by mail or email to the second notice within five days after the sending thereof (unless some other period for response is specified in this Agreement), Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the matter referred to in the notice. Any provisions hereto to the contrary notwithstanding in emergency situations (as determined by Management Company), Management Company shall not be required to seek or obtain Tenant’s approval for any actions or omissions which Management Company, in its sole judgment, deems necessary or appropriate to respond to such situations, provided Management Company promptly thereafter reports such action or omission to Tenant in writing, by mail and by email. |
