Related to Financing of Leasehold Estate
Leasehold Estate Each Mortgaged Property consists of a fee simple estate in real estate or, if the related Mortgage Loan is secured in whole or in part by the interest of a Mortgagor as a lessee under a ground lease of a Mortgaged Property (a "Ground Lease"), by the related Mortgagor's interest in the Ground Lease but not by the related fee interest in such Mortgaged Property (the "Fee Interest"), and as to such Ground Leases: (a) Such Ground Lease or a memorandum thereof has been or will be duly recorded; such Ground Lease (or the related estoppel letter or lender protection agreement between the Seller and related lessor) does not prohibit the current use of the Mortgaged Property and does not prohibit the interest of the lessee thereunder to be encumbered by the related Mortgage; and there has been no material change in the payment terms of such Ground Lease since the origination of the related Mortgage Loan, with the exception of material changes reflected in written instruments that are a part of the related Mortgage File; (b) The lessee's interest in such Ground Lease is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the related Mortgage, other than Permitted Encumbrances; (c) The Mortgagor's interest in such Ground Lease is assignable to the Purchaser and the Trustee as its assignee upon notice to, but without the consent of, the lessor thereunder (or, if such consent is required, it has been obtained prior to the Closing Date) and, in the event that it is so assigned, is further assignable by the Purchaser and its successors and assigns upon notice to, but without the need to obtain the consent of, such lessor or if such lessor's consent is required it cannot be unreasonably withheld; (d) Such Ground Lease is in full force and effect, and the Ground Lease provides that no material amendment to such Ground Lease is binding on a mortgagee unless the mortgagee has consented thereto, and the Seller has received no notice that an event of default has occurred thereunder, and, to the Seller's knowledge, there exists no condition that, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would result in an event of default under the terms of such Ground Lease; (e) Such Ground Lease, or an estoppel letter or other agreement, (A) requires the lessor under such Ground Lease to give notice of any default by the lessee to the holder of the Mortgage; and (B) provides that no notice of termination given under such Ground Lease is effective against the holder of the Mortgage unless a copy of such notice has been delivered to such holder and the lessor has offered or is required to enter into a new lease with such holder on terms that do not materially vary from the economic terms of the Ground Lease. (f) A mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under such Ground Lease) to cure any default under such Ground Lease, which is curable after the receipt of notice of any such default, before the lessor thereunder may terminate such Ground Lease; (g) Such Ground Lease has an original term (including any extension options set forth therein) which extends not less than twenty years beyond the Stated Maturity Date of the related Mortgage Loan; (h) Under the terms of such Ground Lease and the related Mortgage, taken together, any related insurance proceeds or condemnation award awarded to the holder of the ground lease interest will be applied either (A) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with the mortgagee or a trustee appointed by the related Mortgage having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses (except in such cases where a provision entitling a third party to hold and disburse such proceeds would not be viewed as commercially unreasonable by a prudent commercial mortgage lender), or (B) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon; (i) Such Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting which would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by prudent commercial mortgage lenders lending on a similar Mortgaged Property in the lending area where the Mortgaged Property is located; and such Ground Lease contains a covenant that the lessor thereunder is not permitted, in the absence of an uncured default, to disturb the possession, interest or quiet enjoyment of the lessee thereunder for any reason, or in any manner, which would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage; (j) Such Ground Lease requires the Lessor to enter into a new lease upon termination of such Ground Lease if the Ground Lease is rejected in a bankruptcy proceeding; and (k) Such Ground Lease may not be amended or modified or any such amendment or modification will not be effective against the mortgagee without the prior written consent of the mortgagee under such Mortgage Loan, and any such action without such consent is not binding on such mortgagee, its successors or assigns; provided, however, that termination or cancellation without such consent may be binding on the mortgagee if (i) an event of default occurs under the Ground Lease, (ii) notice is provided to the mortgagee and (iii) such default is curable by the mortgagee as provided in the Ground Lease but remains uncured beyond the applicable cure period.
Payment of Leasehold Obligations Each Borrower shall at all times pay, when and as due, its rental obligations under all leases under which it is a tenant, and shall otherwise comply, in all material respects, with all other terms of such leases and keep them in full force and effect and, at Agent’s request will provide evidence of having done so.
Condition of Leased Property Tenant acknowledges receipt and delivery of possession of the Leased Property and Tenant accepts the Leased Property in its “as is” condition, subject to the rights of parties in possession, the existing state of title, including all covenants, conditions, restrictions, reservations, mineral leases, easements and other matters of record or that are visible or apparent on the Leased Property, all applicable Legal Requirements, the lien of any financing instruments, mortgages and deeds of trust existing prior to the Commencement Date or permitted by the terms of this Agreement, and such other matters which would be disclosed by an inspection of the Leased Property and the record title thereto or by an accurate survey thereof. TENANT REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS INSPECTED THE LEASED PROPERTY AND ALL OF THE FOREGOING AND HAS FOUND THE CONDITION THEREOF SATISFACTORY AND IS NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF LANDLORD OR LANDLORD’S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WITH RESPECT THERETO AND TENANT WAIVES ANY CLAIM OR ACTION AGAINST LANDLORD IN RESPECT OF THE CONDITION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY. LANDLORD MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE LEASED PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT, IT BEING AGREED THAT ALL SUCH RISKS ARE TO BE BORNE BY TENANT. To the maximum extent permitted by law, however, Landlord hereby assigns to Tenant all of Landlord’s rights to proceed against any predecessor in interest or insurer for breaches of warranties or representations or for latent defects in the Leased Property. Landlord shall fully cooperate with Tenant in the prosecution of any such claims, in Landlord’s or Tenant’s name, all at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord from and against any loss, cost, damage or liability (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection with such cooperation.
Assignment of Leases and Rents There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions, each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law, provides that, upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, a receiver is permitted to be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related Mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the Mortgagee.
Assignment of Leases The Assignment of Leases creates a valid assignment of, or a valid security interest in, certain rights under the Leases, subject only to a license granted to Borrower to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under the Leases, including the right to operate the Property. No Person other than Lender has any interest in or assignment of the Leases or any portion of the Rents due and payable or to become due and payable thereunder.
Use of Leased Property Xxxxxx agrees to use the Leased Property only as residence. Xxxxxx agrees to obey all federal, state and local laws and regulations when using the Leased Property. Xxxxxx agrees not to store any flammable or dangerous things in or around the Leased Property. Xxxxxx agrees not to do anything in or around the Leased Property, which could harm anyone or damage any property. Xxxxxx agrees that Tenant will not allow more than one person per bedroom to live in the Leased Property without the written permission of Landlord. The fact that Tenant may have conflict with a roommate will not act as grounds to terminate this Lease. In the event that Xxxxxx is arrested for or charged with any crime (other than a traffic related offense not involving illegal or controlled substances) during the term of the Lease, and/or Landlord is presented with evidence of activities of Tenant which shall constitute a nuisance or a threat to Landlord, other tenants, the Leased Property or the development, Landlord shall have the right to evict Tenant from the Leased Property.
Releases of Mortgaged Properties No Mortgage Note or Mortgage requires the mortgagee to release all or any material portion of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage except upon (i) payment in full of all amounts due under the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) delivery of "government securities" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), in connection with a defeasance of the related Mortgage Loan; provided that the Mortgage Loans that are Crossed Loans, and the other individual Mortgage Loans secured by multiple parcels, may require the respective mortgagee(s) to grant releases of portions of the related Mortgaged Property or the release of one or more related Mortgaged Properties upon (i) the satisfaction of certain legal and underwriting requirements or (ii) the payment of a release price in connection therewith; and provided, further, that certain Crossed Groups or individual Mortgage Loans secured by multiple parcels may permit the related Mortgagor to obtain the release of one or more of the related Mortgaged Properties by substituting comparable real estate property, subject to, among other conditions precedent, receipt of confirmation from each Rating Agency that such release and substitution will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any of its then-current ratings of the Certificates; and provided, further, that any Mortgage Loan may permit the unconditional release of one or more unimproved parcels of land to which the Seller did not give any material value in underwriting the Mortgage Loan.
GUARANTY OF LEASE THIS GUARANTY OF LEASE (“Guaranty”) is entered into as of July 5, 2019, by Ascend Wellness Holdings, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company (“Guarantor”), for the benefit of LCR 1014 EASTPORT PLAZA, LLC (“Lessor”), with reference to the following facts: Lessor and HealthCentral Illinois Holdings, LLC (“Lessee”), have entered or will enter into a lease of even date herewith (the “Lease”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in the Lease. By its covenants herein set forth, Guarantor has induced Lessor to enter into the Lease, which was made and entered into in consideration for Guarantor’s said covenants. Subject to the terms set forth herein, Guarantor unconditionally guarantees, without deduction by reason of setoff, defense or counterclaim, to Lessor and its successors and assigns the full and punctual payment (and not merely the collectability), performance and observance by Lessee, of all of the amounts, terms, covenants and conditions in the Lease contained on Lessee’s part to be paid, kept, performed and observed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the scope of Guarantor’s obligations exceed Lessee’s obligations under the Lease except to the extent Lessee is relieved of any such obligation by reason of any bankruptcy or other like filing or order. If Lessee shall at any time default in the punctual payment, performance and observance of any of the amounts, terms, covenants or conditions in the Lease contained on Lessee’s part to be paid, kept, performed and observed (after applicable notice and cure period), Guarantor will pay, keep, perform and observe same, as the case may be, in the place and stead of Lessee. Guarantor shall also pay to Lessor all reasonable and necessary incidental damages and expenses incurred by Lessor as a direct and proximate result of Lessee’s failure to perform, which expenses shall include reasonable attorneys’ fees and interest on all sums due and owing Lessor by reason of Lessee’s failure to pay same, at the maximum rate allowed by law. Any act of Lessor, or its successors or assigns, consisting of a waiver of any of the terms or conditions of the Lease, the giving of any consent to any matter or thing relating to the Lease, or the granting of any indulgence or extension of time to Lessee may be done without notice to Guarantor and without releasing Guarantor from any of its obligations hereunder. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be released by Lessor’s receipt, application or release of any security given for the performance and observance of any covenant or condition in the Lease contained on Lessee’s part to be performed or observed, nor by any modification of the Lease, regardless of whether Guarantor consents thereto or receives notice thereof. The liability of Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected by: (a) the release or discharge of Lessee in any creditor’s, receivership, bankruptcy or other proceeding; (b) the impairment, limitation or modification of the liability of Lessee or the estate of Lessee in bankruptcy, or of any remedy for the enforcement of Lessee’s liability under the Lease resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or other statutes or from the decision of any court; (c) the rejection or disaffirmance of the Lease in any such proceedings; (d) the assignment or transfer of the Lease by Lessee; (e) any disability or other defense of Lessee; (f) the cessation from any cause whatever of the liability of Lessee; (g) the exercise by Lessor of any of its rights or remedies reserved under the Lease or by law; or (h) any termination of the Lease. If Lessee shall become insolvent or be adjudicated bankrupt, whether by voluntary or involuntary petition, if any bankruptcy action involving Lessee shall be commenced or filed, if a petition for reorganization, arrangement or similar relief shall be filed against Lessee, or if a receiver of any part of Lessee’s property or assets shall be appointed by any court, Guarantor shall pay to Lessor the amount of all accrued, unpaid and accruing rent and other charges due under the Lease and all principal and interest and other charges under to the date when the debtor-in- possession, the trustee or administrator accepts the Lease and commences paying same. At the option of Lessor, Guarantor shall either: (a) pay Lessor an amount equal to the rent and other charges which would have been payable for the unexpired portion of the Lease term reduced to present-day value; or (b) execute and deliver to Lessor a new lease for the balance of the Lease term with the same terms and conditions as the Lease, but with Guarantor as Lessee thereunder. Any operation of any present or future debtor’s relief act or similar act, or law or decision of any court, shall in no way affect the obligations of Guarantor or Lessee to perform any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease or of this Guaranty. Guarantor may be joined in any action against Lessee in connection with the obligations of Lessee under the Lease and recovery may be had against Guarantor in any such action. Lessor may enforce the obligations of Guarantor hereunder without first taking any action whatever against Lessee or its successors and assigns, or pursuing any other remedy or applying any security it may hold. Until all of the covenants and conditions in the Lease on Lessee’s part to be performed and observed are fully performed and observed, Guarantor: (a) shall have no right of subrogation against Lessee by reason of any payment or performance by Guarantor hereunder; and (b) subordinates any liability or indebtedness of Lessee now or hereafter held by Guarantor to the obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the Lease. This Guaranty shall apply to the Lease, any extension, renewal, modification or amendment thereof, to any assignment, subletting or other tenancy thereunder and to any holdover term following the Lease term granted under the Lease, or any extension or renewal thereof. Notwithstanding anything in this Guaranty to the contrary, in the event Lessee assigns the Lease or subleases the Premises in accordance with the provisions of the Lease to a third party which is not an entity controlling or controlled by or under common control with Lessee or Guarantor (a “Third Party Assignee”) then (a) the undersigned shall not be responsible for any incremental increase in Rent or other obligation under the Lease or for or during any extension of the Lease term resulting from an amendment to the Lease between Lessor and such Third Party Assignee which provides for an increase in Rent or other obligation due under the Lease or an extension of the Lease term or for any exercise of any option to extend the Lease term which may be exercised by said Third Party Assignee, unless Guarantor shall have consented in writing to such increase in Rent or other obligation or extension of Lease term; and (b) as a condition to the undersigned’s liabilities under this Guaranty, Lessor shall be required to deliver written notice of any defaults by Lessee or the Third Party Assignee to Guarantor and Guarantor shall have the right to cure same within the time period provided in the Lease. In the event of any litigation between Guarantor and Lessor with respect to the subject matter hereof, the unsuccessful party in such litigation shall pay to the successful party all fees, costs and expenses thereof, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. If there is more than one undersigned Guarantor, (a) the term “Guarantor”, as used herein, shall include all of the undersigned; (b) each provision of this Guaranty shall be binding on each one of the undersigned, who shall be jointly and severally liable hereunder; and (c) Lessor shall have the right to join one or all of them in any proceeding or to proceed against them in any order. Within fifteen (15) days after Lessor’s written request (which requests may not be made more than once per calendar year), Guarantor shall furnish Lessor with financial statements or other reasonable financial information reflecting Guarantor’s current financial condition, certified by Guarantor or its financial officer. If Guarantor is a publicly-traded corporation, delivery of Guarantor’s last published financial information shall be satisfactory for purposes of this Paragraph. This instrument constitutes the entire agreement between Lessor and Guarantor with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior oral and written agreements and understandings with respect thereto. It may not be changed, modified, discharged or terminated orally or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing signed by Guarantor and Lessor. This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois. Every notice, demand or request (collectively “Notice”) required hereunder or by law to be given by either party to the other shall be in writing. Notices shall be given by personal service or by United States certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by telegram, mailgram or same-day or overnight private courier, addressed to the party to be served at the address indicated below or such other address as the party to be served may from time to time designate in a Notice to the other party. Any action to declare or enforce any right or obligation under the Lease may be commenced by Lessor in the state courts of the State of Illinois. Guarantor hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such Court for such purposes. Any notice, complaint or legal process so delivered shall constitute adequate notice and service of process for all purposes and shall subject Guarantor to the jurisdiction of such Court for purposes of adjudicating any matter related to this Guaranty. Lessor and Guarantor hereby waive their respective rights to trial by jury of any cause of action, claim, counterclaim or cross-complaint in any action, proceeding and/or hearing brought by either Lessor against Guarantor or Guarantor against Lessor on any matter whatever arising out of, or in any way connected with, the Lease, or this Guaranty. This Guaranty may be assigned in whole or part by Lessor upon written notice to Guarantor, but it may not be assigned by Guarantor without Lessor’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in Lessor’s sole and absolute discretion. The terms and provisions of this Guaranty shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, personal representatives, successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.
Leasehold Mortgages Lessee shall have the right during the term of this Lease to mortgage the Lessee's interest in this Lease, without the prior consent of the Port, and to assign the Lessee's interest in this Lease as collateral security for such leasehold mortgage. All rights acquired by the holder of the leasehold mortgage shall be subject to each and every term, covenant and condition of this Lease and to all rights and interests of the Port. None of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease shall be waived by the Port by reason of the right given to the Lessee to assign its interest in this Lease for security purposes. 15.1 The Leasehold Mortgage shall contain provisions providing that no purchaser or transferee of the Lease at any foreclosure sale or other transfer authorized by law or by reason of a default under the mortgage where no foreclosure sale is required shall further assign or transfer any right, title or interest in or to this Lease or the leasehold estate covered by the Leasehold Mortgage unless the Port has approved the assignee or transferee in writing. 15.2 In the event the Lessee assigns this Lease for security purposes as provided in this Section 15, after receipt of a written notice from the Lessee giving the name and address of the leasehold mortgagee, the Port agrees that whenever the Port sends a notice to the Lessee under the terms of this Lease, the Port will contemporaneously send a copy of the notice to the leasehold mortgagee. 15.3 The Port further agrees that it will not accept a voluntary cancellation or surrender of the Lease by the Lessee without prior written consent of the leasehold mortgagee and the Port will not enter into any amendments of the lease which modifies any material provision of the lease without prior written approval of the leasehold mortgagee. No merger shall result from the acquisition by or the devolution upon any one entity of the fee and leasehold estates in the property. 15.4 In the event of a notice of default from the Port to the Lessee, the leasehold mortgagee may cure any default within the time provided for in the lease after the leasehold mortgagee's receipt of the notice of default. The Port agrees to accept a tender of cure of default from the leasehold mortgagee as if the cure were tendered by the Lessee. Provided, however, that if it takes the leasehold mortgagee more than thirty (30) days to cure a default (other than the payment of any money due under the lease) because the leasehold mortgagee is not in possession of the property, the lease shall not be in default if the leasehold mortgagee promptly undertakes to obtain possession of the property and diligently pursues its right to possession. No tender of cure of a default by the leasehold mortgagee shall require the leasehold mortgagee to cure any future defaults by the Lessee or require the leasehold mortgagee to perform any other term or condition of this Lease. 15.5 In the event of a default by the Lessee which has not been cured by the Lessee or by the leasehold mortgagee and which would permit the Port to forfeit or otherwise terminate this Lease or in the event the leasehold mortgagee forecloses upon its leasehold mortgage and becomes the holder of the Lessee's interest in this Lease, the Port agrees to accept the leasehold mortgagee as the Lessee under this Lease, provided the leasehold mortgagee performs all of the obligations and covenants of the Lessee contained in this Lease which are capable of being performed by the leasehold mortgagee. 15.6 In the event of a default which is personal to the Lessee (such as a bankruptcy) and which cannot be cured by the leasehold mortgagee and the Lessee's interest under this Lease has been terminated or canceled, then at the written request of the leasehold mortgagee, the Port agrees to enter into a new lease with the leasehold mortgagee under the same terms and conditions as this Lease and for any unexpired term of the lease. The Port's execution and delivery of the lease shall be without any representation or warranty of any kind, including any representations or warranties regarding title to the Property, the improvements or the priority of such new lease. 15.6.1 The Port shall be obligated to enter into a new lease with the leasehold mortgagee only if the leasehold mortgagee has remedied and cured all monetary defaults of the Lessee under this Lease and has remedied and cured or has commenced and is diligently completing the cure of all non-monetary defaults susceptible to cure by any party other than the original Lessee. The leasehold mortgagee shall pay all costs and expenses of the Port, including, but not limited to, attorney fees, real property transfer taxes, escrow fees and recording fees incurred in connection with the preparation and execution of a new lease and any related conveyances. 15.6.2 If more than one leasehold mortgagee requests a new lease or in the event of a dispute between the Lessee and a leasehold mortgagee, the Port shall have no duty to determine the relative priority of the leasehold mortgages and the Port shall have no obligation to enter into a new lease with any leasehold mortgagees unless the dispute is resolved to the Port's satisfaction within ninety (90) days of the termination of this Lease. 15.6.3 Upon the execution of the new lease by the leasehold mortgagee and the Port, the Port will convey to the leasehold mortgagee by quit claim deed, title to any improvements on the Property by the Lessee in which the leasehold mortgagee has a recorded mortgage or other security interest. The conveyance of the improvements shall be in "as is" condition without any warranty or representation by the Port concerning the condition of the improvements. The Port will not warrant the title to the improvements and the leasehold mortgagee shall accept the title to the improvements subject to any existing encumbrances. 15.6.4 Upon the execution of a new lease and the conveyance of title to improvements, if any, it shall be the responsibility of the leasehold mortgagee to cancel and discharge this Lease and remove any persons occupying the premises. The leasehold mortgagee shall indemnify the Port and hold it harmless from any obligations, claims, actions, damages, costs or expense, including attorney fees, which may arise from such action or from the Port's compliance with any of the provisions of this Section 15.6.
Releases of Mortgaged Property Except as described in the next sentence, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage requires the mortgagee to release all or any material portion of the related Mortgaged Property that was included in the appraisal for such Mortgaged Property, and/or generates income from the lien of the related Mortgage except upon payment in full of all amounts due under the related Mortgage Loan or in connection with the defeasance provisions of the related Note and Mortgage. The Mortgages relating to those Mortgage Loans identified on Schedule A hereto require the mortgagee to grant releases of portions of the related Mortgaged Properties upon (a) the satisfaction of certain legal and underwriting requirements and/or (b) the payment of a predetermined or objectively determinable release price and prepayment consideration in connection therewith. Except as described in the first sentence hereof and for those Mortgage Loans identified on Schedule A, no Mortgage Loan permits the full or partial release or substitution of collateral unless the mortgagee or servicer can require the Borrower to provide an opinion of tax counsel to the effect that such release or substitution of collateral (a) would not constitute a "significant modification" of such Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treas. Reg. ss.1.1001-3 and (b) would not cause such Mortgage Loan to fail to be a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code.
