If any exemptions exist for payment of the Rent Taxes, whether as a result of collection and payment by Tenant of Rent Taxes on rental and other sums payable by Sublessees or otherwise, Landlord shall, at Tenants request and expense, cooperate (including filing any necessary applications or supplying any necessary confirmations) to enable Tenant to qualify for such exemption and obtain reimbursement from the taxing authorities for any such Rent Taxes improperly paid, but Landlord shall not be liable for payment of any amounts or costs as a result of such cooperation.
6
4.3 Net Lease. This Lease is intended to be a net lease, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, absolutely net throughout the Lease Term, the Rent, free of any charges, assessments, impositions or deductions of any kind and without abatement, deduction or set-off whatsoever. Under no circumstances or conditions, whether now existing or hereafter arising, or whether beyond the present contemplation of the parties, shall Landlord be expected or required to make any payment of any kind whatsoever. Tenant shall pay all costs, expenses and charges of every kind and nature relating to the Premises, which may arise or become due or payable prior to, during or after (but only to the extent attributable to the period falling within the Lease or Term) the Lease Term. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease, Tenants obligation to pay Rent hereunder accruing during the Lease Term hereof shall not terminate prior to the date definitely fixed for the expiration to the Lease Term. Except as specifically set forth herein, the obligations of Tenant hereunder shall not be affected by reason of: any damage to or destruction of the Premises or any part thereof, any taking of the Premises or any part thereof or interest therein by condemnation or otherwise, any prohibition, limitation, restriction or prevention of or interference with Tenants use, occupancy or enjoyment of the Premises or any part thereof by any action of any governmental authority. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Tenant shall not be liable for any Impositions or other charges or assessments for which the Tenant is liable under this Lease following the expiration or prior termination of the Lease. The parties intend that the obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements and shall continue unaffected unless such obligations have been modified or terminated pursuant to an express provision of this Lease or by mutual agreement of Landlord and Tenant.
5. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS
5.1 Payment. Tenant shall pay all real and personal property taxes, general and special assessments, and other charges of every description, extraordinary as well as ordinary, whether foreseen or unforeseen, general or special, together with any interest or penalties imposed upon the late payment thereof (collectively Impositions), as shall, from and after the Effective Date during the Lease Term, be levied, assessed or imposed upon or become due and payable or liens upon, the Premises, or any part thereof, or any appurtenances thereto, Improvements now or hereafter located on the Premises, the leasehold estate hereby created, or any personal property located on the Premises or any part thereof, by virtue of any present or future law, order or ordinance of any Governmental Authority, to the full extent of installments falling due after the Effective Date during the Lease Term, whether belonging to or chargeable against Landlord or Tenant. Unless and to the extent Tenant is making impound payments pursuant to the terms of a Leasehold Mortgage, Tenant shall, upon request of Landlord, deposit with Landlord monthly, on the same date installments of Base Rent are due, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual Impositions (based on actual figures owing or, to extent not yet determined, Landlords good faith estimate thereof), in order that Landlord can then pay the corresponding installments on the Impositions when due from and to the extent Landlord has received such funds from Tenant. If neither Landlord nor any Leasehold Mortgagee requires Impositions to be paid on a monthly basis, Tenant shall make or cause to be made all such payments directly to the Governmental Authority charged with the collection thereof before delinquency and before any fine, interest or penalties shall become due or be imposed by operation of law for nonpayment. If the law expressly permits the payment of any or all of the foregoing in installments (whether or not interest accrues on the unpaid balance), Tenant may, at its election, utilize the permitted installment method, but shall pay each installment with any interest before delinquency. If requested by Tenant, Landlord shall join Tenant in such election.
7
All payments of Impositions shall be prorated between Landlord and Tenant for any portion of a Lease Year. If Tenant has made monthly estimated payments of Impositions to Landlord, Landlord shall submit to Tenant by April 1 of each year a statement showing in reasonable detail the actual Imposition costs for the preceding calendar year along with a reconciliation of estimated payments made by Tenant as compared to Tenants share of the actual Imposition costs (each, an Imposition Statement). However, the failure by Landlord to provide Tenant with an Imposition Statement or delay in doing so shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of Tenants obligation to pay Impositions or of Landlords right to send an Imposition Statement, nor shall it constitute a waiver of its right to reconcile payments of Impositions. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of an Imposition Statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any additional amounts owed to Landlord as shown by the Imposition Statement. Any monies owed by Landlord to Tenant by reason of the results of such Imposition Statement shall be applied by Landlord against the next accruing monthly installments of Imposition payments due from Tenant, and if the Lease Term has expired shall be paid to Tenant. Tenant or its representative shall have the right, upon not less than ten (10) days prior notice rendered no later than sixty (60) days after delivery of an Imposition Statement, to review, during normal business hours, at the location of Landlords books and records, at Tenants sole cost, Landlords records with respect to Imposition expenses for the year of the Imposition Statement only. This right to review Landlords records may be exercised no more than once with respect to any given calendar year. Unless Tenant takes written exception to any item contained in the Imposition Statement within sixty (60) days after delivery thereof, the Imposition Statement shall be deemed final and accepted by Tenant.
5.2 Contest. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, may contest the legal validity or amount of any Imposition for which Tenant is responsible under this Lease, and may institute such proceedings with respect thereto as it considers necessary, provided that (a) nonpayment will not subject the Premises or any part thereof to sale or other liability by reason of such nonpayment, (b) such contest shall not subject Landlord to the risk of any criminal or civil liability and (c) if such Imposition must be paid pursuant to any applicable statute, ordinance, regulation or rule as a condition to such protest and contest, Tenant shall timely pay such Imposition. If such payment is not required by any applicable statute, ordinance, regulation or rule, Tenant shall provide such security as may reasonably be required by Landlord to ensure payment of such contested Imposition. Landlord will cooperate with Tenant in every reasonable aspect initiating and prosecuting any and all contests of any Impositions, but without any out-of-pocket cost or expense to Landlord.
5.3 Exclusions. Tenants obligation to pay the Impositions shall not include the following, however described: business, income taxes or license fees levied or assessed against Landlord (except as may be specifically provided herein) or estate, succession, inheritance, transfer or similar taxes of or on Landlord. If, however, during the Lease Term, taxes are imposed, assessed or levied on the Rent payable hereunder in lieu of all or part of any ad valorem real property taxes or personal property taxes that Tenant would have been obligated to pay under the foregoing provisions, as distinguished from an income or franchise tax on Landlords income or a license fee, Tenant shall pay such taxes as provided above for the payment of Impositions.
8
5.4 Proof of Compliance. Tenant shall furnish to Landlord, within five business (5) days prior to the date when any Imposition would become delinquent, receipts or other appropriate evidence establishing their payment or, in the case of contested Impositions, proof as to the contest and Tenants compliance with Section 5.2. Tenant may comply with this requirement by retaining, at its expense, a tax service contract reasonably acceptable to Landlord providing for, among other things, prompt notification to Landlord when taxes have been paid.
6. USES
6.1 Purpose. Tenant may use and permit the use of the Premises for the Permitted Use and for no other use or purpose (including, but not limited to, the Precluded Uses) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be given or withheld in Landlords sole discretion. Any request for Landlords consent to allow the Premises or any part thereof be used for any purpose that is not a Permitted Use (including, but not limited to, a Precluded Use) shall be in writing, shall specify the nature and extent of the proposed use, shall reference this Lease, and shall state in bold type that This constitutes a request for permission to use a portion of the Premises for a use that is not a Permitted Use under the Lease. Landlord shall approve or disapprove any proposed use of the Premises within thirty (30) days of receipt of a written request from Tenant in the form specified above. If Landlord fails to respond within such 30-day period, the proposed use shall be deemed disapproved. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any physician who conducts a private practice on the Premises may (i) perform outpatient surgical procedures on the physicians patients in the physicians medical office if the services or procedures do not require general anesthesia, and (ii) provide incidental pathological laboratory and radiological services for the physicians patients so long as the pathological laboratory and radiological services do not constitute the physicians primary medical practice or specialty or the predominant services rendered by the physician. Tenant, however, shall require each Sublessee to obtain approval from Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, before initially performing any of the procedures or services described in subsections (i) and (ii) above and before initially installing and using any diagnostic, laboratory or radiology equipment which would be required for the provision of such services.
6.2 Prohibited Uses. Notwithstanding anything in Section 6.1 to the contrary, without the prior written consent of Landlord (which may be given or withheld in Landlords sole discretion), the Premises shall not be used for any Precluded Use.
6.3 As-Is. Tenant acknowledges that it has examined the Premises, is familiar with the physical condition, expenses, zoning, status of title and use that may be made of the Premises and every other matter or thing affecting or related to the Premises, and is leasing the same in its AS IS condition existing on the Effective Date, subject to Title Exceptions, any matters shown by a survey or physical inspection of the Property, Applicable Laws and Impositions due and payable after the Effective Date. Landlord has not made and does not make any representations or warranties whatsoever with respect to the Premises or otherwise with respect to this Lease except as expressly provided in this Lease. Tenant assumes all risks resulting from any defects (patent or latent) in the Premises or from any failure of the same to comply with any Applicable Law or the uses or purposes for which the same may be used or occupied.

Prior to commencing any demolition and removal of the Improvements by Landlord or Tenant, Landlord may require that Tenant post reasonable security to assure payment of the costs to demolish and remove such Improvements, which may include escrowing the Demolition Proceeds. If Tenant elects not to proceed with Restoration and Landlord does not timely require the demolition and removal of the damaged Improvements, the Lease shall be terminated effective thirty (30) days following the date of delivery of Tenants termination notice to Landlord; provided all Rent shall cease to accrue on the date of delivery of the termination notice. If Tenant fails to notify Landlord of its intent to terminate the Lease within ninety (90) days after the date of the damage or destruction, Tenant shall be deemed to have elected not to terminate pursuant to this Section.
10.3 Termination. If Tenant exercises the option in Section 10.2 not to proceed with a Restoration and terminates this Lease, then (a) the insurance proceeds payable with respect to the damage or destruction giving rise to such termination shall be applied in the following order of priority: First, unless Landlord elects, by written notice to Tenant given within

thirty (30) days following Tenants notice of termination, to proceed with a Restoration (rather than demolition and removal) of the Improvements subject to the damage or destruction, to payment of the costs (or reimbursement to Tenant, to the extent Tenant has already paid such costs) of demolishing and removing the damaged or destroyed Improvements (which shall be limited to the Demolition Proceeds from the separate policy of insurance if Tenant elects to obtain a separate policy pursuant to item (i) of Section 10.2 above); Second, in repayment of the then-outstanding financing secured by such Leasehold Mortgage; Third, if then requested by Landlord, installation of landscaping on the Premises (consisting of basic desert type landscaping, including crushed granite and drought-resistant plants); Fourth, to Landlord an amount equal to the lesser of: (i) the present value, as of the date of Tenants termination of this Lease, of the reversionary interest of Landlord in the Improvements damaged or destroyed (Landlords Residual Interest); or (ii) the insurance proceeds remaining after application to the foregoing First, Second and Third priorities; and Fifth, the remainder, if any, to Tenant; (b) to the extent insurance proceeds are to be so paid to, or allocated among, Landlord and Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly each take such acts and execute such documents as shall be reasonably required therefor (whether by the involved insurer or either of the parties), including: (1) assignment of their respective rights and interests under all contracts of insurance on the Premises; and (2) delivery of copies of all insurance policies then applicable to the Premises; and (c) upon the effective termination of this Lease, Tenant shall (1) deliver possession of the Premises to Landlord (subject to the Subleases executed in accordance with this Lease), together with a quitclaim deed, bill of sale or other documentation reasonably requested by Landlord so as to transfer to Landlord all right, title and interest of Tenant in and to the Premises; (2) assign to Landlord Tenants interest in any Subleases executed in accordance with this Lease; (3) deliver to Landlord at Tenants expense a condition of title report for the Premises; and (4) if requested by Landlord, resolve any title matters disclosed by such condition of title report to the extent not constituting Title Exceptions allowed by this Lease and caused by Tenant. If Landlord exercises its right to terminate this Lease, in no event shall any Base Rent be refunded.

If any such Taking is for a period extending beyond the expiration date of the Lease Term, the Taking shall be treated under the foregoing provisions for Total and Partial Takings.
13.5 Rent. In no event shall any Rent be abated, reduced or refunded as a result of any condemnation; provided that Tenant shall not be liable for any Impositions or other charges or assessments for which the Tenant is liable under this Lease following any termination pursuant to Section 13.2.

C. Any transferee shall assume and be bound by, and personally liable for, the obligations of Tenant under this Lease from and after the date of Transfer and the taking of possession by any transferee shall be conclusive evidence of such assumption of liability. Any Transfer not in conformity herewith shall be void.
14.1.2 Landlord Assignment. Landlord reserves the right to sell, assign, encumber or otherwise transfer all or any portion of Landlords interest in and to the Premises or this Lease upon the conditions that: (a) this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, subject to the performance by Tenant of all of its obligations hereunder; (b) any such action by Landlord shall not effect the rights or priorities of Tenant under this Lease; (c) Landlord shall not be released from any of its obligations under this Lease accruing prior to the date of such transfer; (d) the assignee shall have assumed in writing all of Landlords obligations hereunder from and after the date of the assignment; and (e) Tenant shall not be bound by such transfer unless and until Tenant actually receives written notice of such transfer, including copies of the transfer document(s) executed by the transferor and transferee in accordance with this Section.
21
14.2 Subleases.
14.2.1 General. Tenant shall have the right, from time to time, to enter into Subleases of all or any portion of the Premises on terms acceptable to Tenant, provided, that (a) all Subleases shall be in writing; (b) the aggregate rental charge or methodology for determining the rent under each Sublease shall be set forth in the Sublease and shall be consistent with the fair market value for the subleased premises (as determined by Tenant in its reasonable judgment), shall be paid over the term of the Sublease (and not prepaid) and shall not take into account the volume or value of patient referrals to any health care institution; (c) the Sublease does not conflict with the provisions of this Lease, including but not limited to the provisions regarding Permitted Uses and Precluded Uses; (d) except with Landlords approval (which may be given or withheld in Landlords sole discretion), the Sublease does not have a term extending beyond the stated Lease Term; (e) Tenant has complied with the provisions of Section 14.2.4 and Landlord has not elected to Sublease such Premises pursuant to Section 14.2.4; (d) the Sublessee is not an Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party; and (f) provided the Hospital has not Ceased Operations as of the effective date of the Sublease, ninety percent (90%) of the leaseable space within the Building shall be subleased to Sublessees whose occupying physicians are members in good standing of the medical staff (Medical Staff) as determined in accordance with Section 14.2.2. The remaining ten percent (10%) of the leaseable space within the Building may be subleased to non-physician health care professionals such as dentists and psychologists.
14.2.2 Staff Membership. The provision of item (e) of Section 14.2.1 relating to Medical Staff (the Staff Membership Requirement) will be deemed not satisfied if, at any time, with respect to one or more Subleases necessary to insure that at least ninety percent (90%) of the leaseable space within the Premises satisfies the Staff Membership Requirements: (1) a physician who is the sole physician occupant of the Premises ceases to hold Staff Membership, as provided in the Medical Staffs bylaws; (2) with respect to a Sublessee comprised of more than one (1) physician (a Group), any of the physicians in the Group (whether employees, partners, members or shareholders) who occupy or use space in the Premises at any time or from time to time cease to have Staff Membership; or (3) with respect to a Sublessee where the Sublessee is a health care provider that manages or employs physicians (a Practice Manager), any of the physicians who are employed or managed by the Practice Manager and who occupy Premises in the Building cease to have Staff Membership (with the occurrence of any of the foregoing referred to as a Non-Compliance Situation, and the Sublease subject to the Non-Compliance Situation referred to as the Applicable Sublease). In the event of the occurrence of a Non-Compliance Situation, the sole right of Landlord, and the sole obligation of Tenant, shall be for Landlord to require Tenant to terminate (the Lease Termination) the Applicable Sublease violating the Staff Membership Requirement (the Landlord Termination Right). Promptly following any Non-Compliance Situation, Tenant shall notify Landlord, and Landlord may execute its Landlord Termination Right within ninety (90) days following receipt of Tenants notice (the Termination Request), in which event Landlord will be deemed, automatically and without further action by Tenant, the Sublessee or any other person or entity, to have assumed all obligations of the Sublessee under the Applicable Sublease from and after the date of the Lease Termination (the Termination Date) for the remaining term thereof, and to have been assigned all of the rights of the Sublessee under the Applicable Sublease, but solely from and after the Termination Date. Landlord shall, upon request by Tenant, take all acts and execute any documents, reasonably requested by Tenant to carry out the foregoing, including but not limited to an assumption of the obligations of the Sublessee under the Applicable Sublease. The Landlord Termination Right will not apply to the
22
extent: (i) a Sublessee regains Staff Membership for the Applicable Sublease prior to the expiration of the sixty (60) day period following the Termination Request; (ii) loss or termination of Staff Membership, with respect to a physician, Group or Practice Manager to which a Non-Compliance Situation relates, is not legally enforceable by the Hospital; or (iii) that following a Termination Request, the Staff Membership Requirement is satisfied prior to the Termination Date. For purposes of this Section, any Subleases to Landlord or its Affiliates shall be deemed to satisfy the Staff Membership Requirement for purposes of this Section. If Landlord does not exercise Landlords Termination Right with respect to any Applicable Sublease, the Sublessee thereunder may continue to occupy the Sublease for the balance of the term, but Tenant shall not extend the term, nor shall Sublessee be permitted to exercise any renewal right (and any Sublease shall specify that membership on the Medical Staff is a condition of renewal).
14.2.3 Confirmation; Non-Disturbance. Landlord shall, if and when requested by Tenant, provide confirmation, with respect to any proposed Sublease, that such Sublease is in compliance with the provisions of this Lease. Landlord shall also, upon request of Tenant, execute any reasonable form of non-disturbance agreement requested by Tenant in connection with any Sublease that meets the requirements of this Lease, to confirm that the rights and interest of the Sublessee under such Sublease shall not be disturbed, notwithstanding a termination of or other action by Landlord under this Lease provided the Sublessee agrees, if requested, to attorn to Landlord and continues to perform each and all of its obligations under the Sublease. The fact that a violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Lease results from or is caused by an act or omission by any of the Sublessees shall not relieve Tenant of Tenants obligation to cure the same. Tenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any such violation or breach.
14.2.4 Right of First Refusal. Following execution of an initial Sublease for space in any portion of the Building (such space being referred to as Second Generation Space), Landlord shall have a right of first refusal on such Second Generation Space as provided in this Section. No sooner than ninety (90) days prior to the date when Tenant anticipates that any Second Generation Space shall become vacant (Vacant Premises), whether through expiration of Subleases or otherwise, Tenant shall first offer, by written notice to Landlord (a Sublease Notice), to enter into a Sublease with Landlord (or its designated Affiliates) for such Vacant Premises on the general leasing terms then being offered by Tenant for Subleases. If Landlord agrees to lease any Vacant Premises pursuant to this Section, Tenant shall nevertheless have the right to revoke the Sublease Notice and terminate the Landlords Sublease at any time up to sixty (60) days prior to the commencement of such Sublease if following Landlords exercise of its right to Sublease, the existing Sublessee of the Vacant Space enters into a renewal or extension of the expiring Sublease. If Landlord does not agree by written notice by Tenant to sublease any Vacant Premises within thirty (30) days following receipt of a Sublease Notice, then Tenant shall thereafter have the right to enter into Subleases with third parties for those Vacant Premises without obligation to Landlord, subject to all other applicable provisions of this Lease pertaining to Subleases. Landlord will, upon request by Tenant, provide any written confirmation requested to confirm Landlord has not exercised its right to so sublease Vacant Premises pursuant to a Sublease Notice.
23
14.2.5 Assignment of Subleases. To secure the prompt and full payment by Tenant of the Rent and the faithful performance by Tenant of all the other terms and conditions herein contained on its part to be kept and performed, Tenant hereby assigns, transfers and sets over unto Landlord, subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, all of Tenants right, title and interest in and to all Subleases and hereby confers upon Landlord, its agents and representatives, a right of entry in, and sufficient possession of the Premises to permit and insure the collection by Landlord of the rentals and other sums payable under the Subleases, and further agrees that the exercise of said right of entry and qualified possession by Landlord shall not constitute an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof and that should said right of entry and possession be denied Landlord, its agent or representative, Landlord, in the exercise of said right, may use all lawful force to gain and enjoy the same without responsibility or liability to Tenant, its servants, employees, guests or invitees, or any Person whomsoever; provided, however that such assignment shall become operative and effective only if (a) an event of default by Tenant shall occur under this Lease and only for such period as the event of default shall continue in effect or (b) this Lease shall be canceled or terminated pursuant to the terms, covenants and conditions hereof or (c) there occurs repossession under a dispossess warrant or other re-entry or repossession by Landlord under the provisions hereof or (d) a receiver for the Premises is appointed by reason of a Tenant default hereunder, and then only as to such of the Subleases that Landlord may elect to take over and assume. At such time as Landlord determines that an assignment has become operative and effective as provided herein Landlord may, without further authorization from Tenant, direct Sublessees to pay all rent and other amounts due under the Subleases directly to Landlord. At any time and from time to time upon Landlords demand, Tenant promptly shall deliver to Landlord a schedule of all Subleases, setting forth the names of all Sublessees, with a photostat copy of each of the Subleases. Upon reasonable request of Landlord, Tenant shall permit Landlord and its agents and representatives to inspect all Subleases affecting the Premises. Tenant covenants that each Sublease shall provide that the Sublessee thereunder shall be required from time to time, upon request of Landlord or Tenant, to execute, acknowledge and deliver, to and for the benefit of Landlord, an estoppel certificate confirming with respect to such Sublease the information set forth in Section 19.4 hereof. Until any assignment becomes operative or effective under this Section, Tenant may further assign, transfer and set over unto any Leasehold Mortgagee all of Tenants right, title and interest in and to all Subleases, subject, however, to the terms of this Lease.
14.2.6 Sublease Terms. Tenant covenants and agrees that all Subleases hereafter entered into affecting the Premises shall provide that (a) they are subject to this Lease, (b) the term thereof shall end not less than one (1) day prior to the expiration of the Lease Term, unless Landlord shall consent otherwise, which consent may be withheld in Landlords sole discretion, (c) the Sublessees will not do, authorize or execute any act, deed or thing whatsoever or fail to take any such action which will or may cause Tenant to be in violation of any of its obligations under this Lease, (d) the Sublessees will not pay rent or other sums under the Subleases with Tenant for more than one (1) month in advance (other than security deposits), (e) the Sublessees shall give to Landlord at the address and otherwise in the manner specified in Section 19.9 hereof, a copy of any notice of default by Tenant as the landlord under the Subleases at the same time as, and whenever, any such notice of default shall be given by the Sublessees to Tenant, (f) unless Landlord executes a new lease pursuant to Section 16.3, in the event of the termination or expiration of this Lease prior to the expiration of the Lease Term, any such Sublessee, at Landlords election (except in the event Landlord has executed a non-disturbance agreement for such Sublease, in which event attornment shall be required), shall be obligated to attorn to and recognize Landlord as the lessor under such Sublease, in which event
24
such Sublease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between Landlord and the Sublessee upon all the terms and conditions of such Sublease, except as hereinafter provided, (g) upon Sublessees receipt of a written notice from Landlord that it has exercised its rights under Section 14.2.5 and that all rent and other amounts due under the Sublease shall be paid to Landlord, the Sublessee is authorized and directed, without further notice from Tenant and notwithstanding any contrary notice provided by Tenant to the Sublessee, to pay all rents and other amounts due under the Sublease to Landlord, subject, however, to the rights of any Mortgagee, and (h) a representation by the Sublessee that it is not an Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party. Any attornment required by Landlord of such Sublessee shall be effective and self-operative as of the date of any such termination or expiration of this Lease without the execution of any further instrument; provided, however, that such Sublessee shall agree, upon the request of Landlord, to execute and deliver any such instruments in recordable form and otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord to evidence such attornment. With respect to any attornment required by Landlord of any Sublessee hereunder, (i) at the option of Landlord, Landlord shall recognize all rights of Tenant as the lessor under such Sublease and the Sublessee thereunder shall be obligated to Landlord to perform all of the obligations of the Sublessee under such Sublease arising after the date of attornment, and (ii) Landlord shall have no liability, prior to its becoming lessor under such Sublease, to such Sublessee nor shall the performance by such Sublessee of its obligations under the Sublease, whether prior to or after any such attornment, be subject to any defense, counterclaim or setoff by reason of any default by Tenant in the performance of any obligation to be performed by Tenant as lessor under such Sublease, nor shall Landlord be bound by any prepayment of more than one (1) months rent unless such prepayment shall have been expressly approved in writing by Landlord. The provisions of this Section 14.2.6 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.
14.2.7 Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, in no event may Tenant Transfer the Premises or sublease space in the Improvements to a party which is an Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party, nor may any member of Tenant convey its interest to an Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party. If Tenant receives knowledge following the execution of a sublease that the Sublessees representation and warranty that it is not an Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party is untrue and that the Sublessee is an Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party, Tenant shall promptly exercise its right to terminate such Sublease.
14.3 Landlords Right to First Purchase.
14.3.1 Initiation of Landlords Right. Prior to effecting a Transfer of Tenants Interest under this Lease (other than with respect to Subleases (which shall be subject to Section 14.2), or a Leasehold Mortgage, each as and to the extent permitted by this Lease) or offering, or entering into an agreement to, effect a Transfer of Tenants Interest, Tenant shall first offer to sell Tenants Interest to Landlord as follows:
A. Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of Tenants intention to offer Tenants Interest for sale (a Trigger Notice), including the basic terms and desired sale price for Tenants Interest (the Baseline Price).
25
B. Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, for thirty (30) days following receipt of the Trigger Notice (the Acceptance Period) to agree by written notice to Tenant to purchase the Tenants Interest for the Baseline Price, and otherwise on the terms set forth in this Section 14.3 (an Acceptance Notice). If Landlord fails to deliver to Tenant an Acceptance Notice within the Acceptance Period, Landlord will be deemed to have elected not to purchase the Tenants Interest pursuant to the Trigger Notice.
C. If Landlord timely delivers an Acceptance Notice to Tenant, Tenant will be obligated to sell to Landlord, and Landlord will be obligated to purchase from Tenant, the Tenants Interest in accordance with Section 14.3.2 below.
D. If Landlord fails to timely deliver an Acceptance Notice to Tenant, Tenant will have the right, but not the obligation, to sell the Tenants Interest, free and clear of the rights of Landlord under this Section 14.3 (a Third Party Sale), as follows:
(1) The Third Party Sale shall be for a price (payable by the buyer in cash or cash equivalent, including the unpaid balance of any Leasehold Mortgage to the extent such purchase includes such buyer acquiring the Tenants Interest subject to or with assumption of any outstanding Leasehold Mortgage) not less than ninety-five percent (95%) the Baseline Price. If Tenant wishes to complete a Third Party Sale for a price less than ninety-five percent (95%) the Baseline Price, Tenant shall again give Landlord a Trigger Notice and an opportunity to purchase, but the Acceptance Period shall be shortened to ten (10) business days.
(2) Closing of the Third Party Sale shall take place not later than one (1) year following expiration of the applicable Acceptance Period.
(3) Other terms of sale shall be as negotiated by Tenant, in its sole and absolute discretion.
(4) Any Third Party Sale shall not amend, terminate or otherwise affect the respective rights and obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this Lease. Without limiting the foregoing following any Third Party Sale the buyer shall be again obligated to offer Tenants Interest to Landlord before effecting any Transfer of Tenants Interest.
(5) The buyer shall not be an Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party.
(6) Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of the purchase and sale agreement and all amendments, addenda, supplements or side letters relating thereto and a certified copy of the settlement statement at the closing of the Third Party Sale.
E. Landlord shall execute any documents, as reasonably requested by Tenant, to confirm compliance with, and non-application of this Section 14.3 to a Third Party Sale.
F. In the event Landlord does not timely give an Acceptance Notice, and Tenant does not complete a Third Party Sale in accordance with the terms of this Section within one (1) year following the applicable Acceptance Period, the provisions of this Section 14.3. shall again be applicable to Landlord and Tenant.
26
14.3.2 Terms of Landlords Purchase. Landlords purchase of Tenants Interest pursuant to Section 14.3.1 shall be on the following terms:
A. Closing of the purchase and sale of Tenants Interest shall be within ninety (90) days following the date of Landlords Acceptance Notice (the Closing).
B. The purchase price payable by Landlord shall be equal to the Baseline Price, and payable in cash at Closing; provided, that if and to the extent a Leasehold Mortgage is then outstanding, Landlord shall have the right, to the extent permitted by such Leasehold Mortgage, to assume such Financing, at no cost or liability to Tenant, with the unpaid principal balance of such Leasehold Mortgage at Closing credited against Landlords purchase price obligation; provided, that Tenant and its Affiliates and principals are released from all obligations under the Leasehold Mortgage and any document related thereto arising from and after the Closing. If the principal balance of the Leasehold Mortgage exceeds the Baseline Price, Tenant shall pay the difference at the Closing.
C. Tenant shall pay for an ALTA standard coverage leasehold policy of title insurance (with Landlord to pay for any additional coverage, including extended coverage, or endorsements).

Such assignment and assumption shall contain reciprocal indemnities from Tenant (relating to events occurring prior to the assignment) and Landlord (relating to events occurring on and after the assignment).

B. Transfers upon or in lieu of condemnation by governmental authorities;
C. Transfers of equity interests in Tenant where some or all of the equity interest holders in Tenant immediately prior to such Transfer continue to hold at least a fifty-one percent (51%) equity interest in Tenant following such Transfer (and such interest is not diluted through a series of transfers intended to circumvent this provision); provided that in no event shall any equity interest in Tenant, or any constituent entity holding a direct of indirect interest in Tenant, be assigned or otherwise transferred to an Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party.
15. FINANCING.
15.1 Tenants Financing. Tenant shall have the right during the Term to subject the Improvements and Tenants leasehold interest in the Premises to one or more mortgages, deeds of trust, assignments of lease, security agreements or other methods of financing or refinancing (a Leasehold Mortgage, any holder of which is called a Mortgagee), or to any one or more extensions, modifications or renewals or replacements of a Mortgage subject, however, to the following:
15.1.1 Each Leasehold Mortgage or other security instrument acquired by the Mortgagee shall be a lien only on Tenants interests in and to this Lease and the leasehold estate created hereby and shall be subject and subordinate to Landlords fee interest in the Premises or Landlords reversionary interest in the Property. Each Leasehold Mortgage shall be subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease, and the Mortgagee, or anyone claiming by, through or under the same, shall not, by virtue thereof, acquire any greater rights hereunder than Tenant has under this Lease;
28
15.1.2 Landlord shall not be liable for the payment of the sum secured by such Leasehold Mortgage, nor for any expenses in connection with the same, and neither such Leasehold Mortgage nor any instrument collateral thereto shall contain any covenant or other obligation on Landlords part to pay such debt, or any part thereof, or to take any affirmative action of any kind whatsoever or to perform or observe any obligation or agreement thereunder;
15.1.3 The loan secured by such Leasehold Mortgage shall be made by a commercial or savings bank, trust company, savings and loan institution or an insurance company authorized to do business in the State of Arizona or other institutional lender in the business of making real estate loans and shall be nonparticipating, except with another institution of the character herein set forth and such loan shall be made on the basis of prevailing market rates and terms;
15.1.4 No Leasehold Mortgage may secure any indebtedness unrelated to the Property; provided, however, that any such Leasehold Mortgage may serve as cross-collateral for any loan made to Tenant and one or more Affiliate as part of a portfolio loan transaction that is secured, in part, by real property other than the Property;
15.1.5 Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all documents recorded to evidence any and all Leasehold Mortgages and all notices of default received by Tenant from the Mortgagee;
15.1.6 The Leasehold Mortgage shall by its terms require the Mortgagee to deliver copies of default notices to Landlord simultaneously upon mailing to Tenant and shall grant to Landlord the right to cure any default if Tenant fails to do so within the greater of: (i) 30 days following the giving of such notice; of (ii) such time (if any) as shall, pursuant to the terms of the Leasehold Mortgage or other documents, be given to Landlord to cure any such default. Neither Landlords right to cure any such default, nor any exercise of such a right by Landlord, shall constitute an assumption of liability by Landlord under the Leasehold Mortgage or any document executed in connection therewith; and
15.1.7 The Leasehold Mortgage shall by its terms state that in the event of a casualty all insurance proceeds will be made available to Tenant for purposes of reconstructing the Improvements subject, however, to any conditions in the Leasehold Mortgage that are approved by Landlord in its sole discretion.
15.2 Tenants Obligations. Tenant shall pay the indebtedness secured by any Leasehold Mortgage when the same shall become due and payable and perform, when such performance is required, all obligations of the mortgagor thereunder.

Tenant shall cause a complete and genuine copy of the Leasehold Mortgage, together with written notice containing the name and post office address of the Mortgagee thereunder, to be delivered to Landlord.
29
16. RIGHTS OF MORTGAGEE.
16.1 Notice to Mortgagee. If an event of default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord shall send a duplicate copy of all written notices of any event of default to any Mortgagee that has provided its address in writing to Landlord by Tenant. Mortgagee shall have thirty (30) days (ten (10) days in the case of a monetary event of default) after delivery of the written notice from Landlord within which to cure or remove the event of default, provided that if any non-monetary event of default is not capable of being cured within such 30-day period, then Mortgagee shall have the same period of time granted to Tenant pursuant to Section 17.1 to cure such default, provided that Mortgagee promptly commences to cure the same and thereafter pursues the curing of the event of default with diligence. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, Landlord shall not have any right pursuant to this Lease or otherwise to terminate this Lease due to Tenants default unless Landlord shall have first given a copy of the written notice of default to Mortgagee and unless Mortgagee shall have failed to cure or remove, or cause to be cured or removed, the event of default, within the time required by this Section 16.1.
16.2 Acceptance of Cure. Landlord will accept performance by Mortgagee of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Tenant contained in this Lease with the same effect as though performed by Tenant.
16.3 New Lease. If this Lease is terminated for any reason, including, but not limited to any termination following Mortgagees failure to cure an event of default as permitted in Section 16.1, or if this Lease is rejected or disaffirmed pursuant to bankruptcy laws or other laws affecting creditors rights, Landlord will enter into a new lease of the Premises with Mortgagee, or any party designated by the Mortgagee (other than an Excluded Sublessee/Assignee Party), within thirty (30) days after the request of Mortgagee referred to below. The new lease shall be effective as of the date of termination, rejection or disaffirmance of this Lease and shall be upon the same terms and provisions contained in this Lease (including the amount of the Base Rent and other sums due from Tenant hereunder). In order to obtain a new lease, Mortgagee must make a written request to Landlord for the new lease within sixty (60) days after Mortgagee is notified of the effective date of termination, rejection or disaffirmance of the Lease, as the case may be, and the written request must be accompanied by a copy of the new lease, duly executed and acknowledged by Mortgagee or the party designated by Mortgagee as tenant. In addition, Mortgagee must cure all Events of Default under the Lease. Mortgagees rights under this Section 16.3 are in addition to, and not limited by, Mortgagees right to cure under Section 16.1. The provisions of this Section 16.3 are a separate and independent covenant made by Landlord to and for the benefit of Mortgagee. From the effective date of termination, rejection or disaffirmance of this Lease to the date of execution and delivery of such new lease or the expiration of the period during which Mortgagee may request a new lease, Mortgagee may, upon payment of the Base Rent and any other sums as may be due from Tenant and performance of Tenants obligations under this Lease, use and enjoy the leasehold estate in accordance with the terms of this Lease without hindrance by Landlord.
16.4 No Surrender. If Landlord has received written notice of a Leasehold Mortgage, Landlord will not accept a voluntary surrender of this Lease while such Leasehold Mortgage is in effect.
30
16.5 Nonliability for Covenants. The provisions of this Section 16 are for the benefit of Mortgagees and may be relied upon and shall be enforceable by any Mortgagee (a) whose Leasehold Mortgage complies with the provisions of Section 15.1 and Section 16.6, and (b) who notifies Landlord in writing and provides a copy of its Leasehold Mortgage to Landlord.

17.2 Remedies.
17.2.1 In the event of a default by Tenant, Landlord may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available under this Lease or at law or in equity:
A. Choose not to reenter the Premises but to hold Tenant responsible for all terms of this Lease; or
B. Declare this Lease at an end, reenter the Premises and repossess and enjoy the Premises subject to the rights of Sublessees under Subleases for which Landlord has executed a non-disturbance agreement; or
C. Reenter the Premises, and without terminating this Lease at any time, and from time to time, subject to the rights of Sublessees under Subleases, relet the Premises, or any part or parts thereof, for the account of Tenant, or otherwise; receive and collect the rents therefor, applying the same first to the payment of such expenses as Landlord may have paid, assumed or incurred in recovering possession of the Premises, including costs, expenses and attorneys fees, and for placing the same in good order and condition, or preparing or altering the same for reletting, and all other expenses, commissions and charges paid, assumed or incurred by Landlord in or about reletting the Premises, and then to the fulfillment of the obligations of Tenant hereunder.
17.2.2 Any reletting by Landlord may be for the remainder of the Lease Term or for shorter or longer periods. Landlord may execute any lease made pursuant to the terms hereof either in its own name or in the name of Tenant, as Landlord may see fit, and the lessees therein shall be under no obligation whatsoever for the application by Landlord of any rent collected by Landlord from such lessee to any and all sums due and owing or which may become due and owing under the provisions of this Lease, nor shall Tenant have any right or authority whatever to collect any rent from such lessee. In the event of reletting, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all such sums required to be paid by Tenant up to the time of reentry by Landlord, and thereafter Tenant shall, if required by Landlord, pay to Landlord until the end of the term of this Lease, the equivalent of the amount of all Rent and other charges required to be paid by Tenant under the terms of this Lease, less the avails of such reletting during the remainder of the term of this Lease, if any, after payment of Landlords expenses as aforesaid, and the same shall be due and payable on the several Rent payment dates herein specified. No entry or reletting by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease or accept a surrender by Tenant unless a written notice of such intention is executed by Landlord. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination, at any time thereafter, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease for such previous default by Tenant.
17.2.3 If Landlord at any time terminates this Lease because of a default by Tenant, in addition to any other remedy it may have, Landlord may recover from Tenant all damages Landlord may incur by reason thereof, including, without limitation, the cost of recovering the Premises.
17.2.4 Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Landlord shall not have the right to terminate this Lease on account of a default by Tenant at anytime when MMIC JCL MOB, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, is the Tenant under this Lease. This Section 17.2.4 shall not apply following any Transfer hereunder.
33
17.3 Late Payment. If any payment due from Tenant is not received by Landlord when due, the Rent or other sum not paid shall accrue interest, from the date due until paid, at the Default Rate.
17.4 Waiver. No failure by a party to insist upon the strict performance of any provision of this Lease or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon the default thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial Rent during the continuance of any such default, shall constitute a waiver of any such default or of such provision. No provision of this Lease to be performed or observed by a party and no default thereof shall be waived, altered or modified except by written instrument executed by the non-defaulting party. No waiver of any default shall affect or alter this Lease but each and every provision of this Lease shall remain and continue in full force and effect with respect to any other existing or subsequent default thereof,
17.5 Injunction. In the event of any threatened default by a party of any of the provisions of this Lease, the other party shall be entitled to seek to enjoin such default or threatened default as though reentry, summary proceedings and other remedies were not provided for in this Lease.
17.6 Cumulative Remedies. Each of Landlords rights and remedies provided for in this Lease shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Lease, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity whether by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the rights or remedies provided for in this Lease, as now or hereafter existing, shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Landlord of any or all other rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.
17.7 Landlord Default. If Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations or breaches any of its covenants contained in this Lease, Landlord shall not be in default unless such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written demand for performance is given by Tenant, or, if the default is of such a character as to require more than thirty (30) days to cure, unless Landlord shall fail to commence said cure promptly and use reasonable diligence in working to complete such cure.
17.8 Landlords Right to Cure Defaults. All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease shall be at its sole expense and, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, without any abatement of Rent. If Tenant is in default in the performance of any term or covenant on Tenants part to be kept, observed or performed hereunder, at its option, Landlord may make any such payment or perform any such covenant for the account of Tenant. If Landlord makes any expenditure or incurs any obligation for the payment of money in connection therewith, the same shall be due and payable upon demand, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date paid by Landlord until repaid, and if Tenant should fail to pay such sum, with interest, within five (5) days following demand, such failure shall constitute a default hereunder. Landlords rights hereunder shall be in addition to any other rights granted to Landlord by any other provisions of this Lease and shall not constitute a waiver of any rights of Landlord or a release of Tenant from any obligations under this Lease.
