B. Lessor and Tenant desire to amend ML5 on the terms described in this Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Lessor and Tenant hereby agree as follows:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this definition shall limit the applicability of Section 19.2 and Section 19.3 hereof.”

1.2. Effective as of April 1, 2016, Exhibit C to ML5 is amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth in Attachment 1 attached to and made a part of this Amendment.

2. Kindred Hospital – Louisville. Relative to the Facility commonly known as Kindred Hospital- Louisville (Facility #4633), Tenant has requested Lessor’s consent to Tenant’s sub-subleasing to Operator of the portion of such Facility which was previously sub-subleased to Peak 10 Xodiax, Inc. (and is commonly known as the “data center’) for use by Operator as a call center for potential patients to discuss care options, find Tenant locations and obtain advice on insurance and other payment issues. Pursuant to Tenant’s request, Lessor hereby evidences its consent to such use of such Facility by Operator, as a sub-sublessee, and agrees that, as Operator is already a Tenant under ML5, Lessor shall not require a Lease Guaranty from Operator pursuant to Section 40.12 of ML5. Except as provided above relative to providing a Lease Guaranty, the requirements of ML5 relating to subleasing shall remain applicable to Tenant’s aforesaid sub-sublease to Operator. In addition, also relative to such Kindred Hospital- Louisville Facility, Tenant has requested Lessor’s consent to Tenant’s sub-subleasing of 65 parking spaces to Norton Properties, Inc. as provided in the draft sub-sublease heretofore delivered by Tenant to Lessor. Lessor hereby evidences its consent to such sub-sublease to Norton Properties, Inc., subject to Tenant’s compliance with the requirements of subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) of Section 25.1.2 of ML5 and the other applicable provisions of ML5 that impose requirements on subleases and subtenants.

3. Certain Lessor Costs. Tenant shall pay, as Additional Charges, on behalf of Lessor, or reimburse Lessor for, any and all actual, reasonable, and documented third party out-of-pocket costs or expenses paid or incurred by Lessor, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Amendment.

4. Conflict; Unified Commercial Operating Lease. In the event of a conflict between ML5 and this Amendment, this Amendment shall control in all events. Except as set forth in this Amendment, ML5 shall remain in full force and effect. It is acknowledged and agreed that, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in ML5, the inclusion of each of the Leased Properties on a continuing basis in ML5 is an essential element of the leasing transaction described in ML5 for Lessor, and that, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in ML5, Lessor shall not be obligated and may not be required to lease to Tenant less than all of the Leased Properties demised pursuant to ML5. It is further acknowledged and agreed that ML5 is not a residential lease within the meaning of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, as amended, and that ML5 is an operating lease, and not a capital lease, for all accounting, tax and legal purposes.
