Lessor shall give to Lessee an annual accounting showing all credits and debits to and from such impounded funds received from Lessee.

Except as provided below and subject to the terms and provisions of the Mortgages, Lessee shall be entitled to the entire Net Award for a Temporary Taking, unless the period of occupation and use by the condemning authorities shall extend beyond the date of expiration of this Lease, in which event the Net Award made for such Temporary Taking shall be apportioned between Lessor and Lessee as of the date of such expiration. At the termination of any such Temporary Taking, Lessee will, at its own cost and expense and pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.02, promptly commence and complete restoration of such Property.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of this Section 11.05 to the contrary, but subject to the terms and provisions of the Mortgages, if at the time of any Condemnation or any Casualty or at any time thereafter an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lessor is hereby authorized and empowered but shall not be obligated, in the name and on behalf of Lessee and otherwise, to file and prosecute Lessee’s claim, if any, for a Net Award on account of such Condemnation or such Casualty and to collect such Net Award and apply the same to the curing of such Event of Default and any other then existing Event of Default under this Lease and/or to the payment of any amounts owed by Lessee to Lessor under this Lease, in such order, priority and proportions as Lessor in its discretion shall deem proper.
Section 11.06. Lessee Obligation in Event of Casualty. During all periods of time following a Casualty, Lessee shall take reasonable steps to ensure that the related Property is secure and does not pose any risk of harm to any adjoining property and Persons (including owners or occupants of such adjoining property).

Default, Conditional Limitations,
Remedies and Measure of Damages
Section 12.01. Event of Default. Each of the following shall be an event of default by Lessee under this Lease (each, an “Event of Default”):
(a) if any representation or warranty of Lessee set forth in this Lease is false in any material respect when made, or if Lessee renders any false statement or account when made;
(b) if any Rental or other Monetary Obligation due under this Lease is not paid when due and such failure continues for more than five (5) days after written notice from Lessor; provided, however, Lessor shall only be required to provide such notice and cure period twice in any twelve (12) month period; and further provided, however, that in the event that Lessee pays Rental by Automated Clearing House transfer pursuant to Section 4.05 above, any delay in the payment of Rental as a result of a technical error in the Automated Clearing House transfer process caused by Lessor’s bank or servicer shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder;
(c) if Lessee fails to pay, prior to delinquency, any taxes, assessments or other charges the failure of which to pay will result in the imposition of a lien against any of the Properties;
(d) if there is an Insolvency Event affecting Lessee or any Guarantor;
(e) if Lessee vacates or abandons any Property;
(f) if Lessee fails to observe or perform any of the other covenants, conditions or obligations of Lessee in this Lease that are not addressed in the other subsections of this Section 12.01 and such failure continues for more than ten (10) days after written notice from Lessor; provided, however, if any such failure does not involve the payment of any Monetary Obligation, is not willful or intentional, does not place any Property or any rights or property of Lessor in immediate jeopardy, and is within the reasonable power of Lessee to promptly cure, all as determined by Lessor in its reasonable discretion, then such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, unless and until Lessor shall have given Lessee notice thereof and a period of thirty (30) days shall have elapsed, during which period Lessee may correct or cure such failure, upon failure of which an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder without further notice or demand of any kind being required. If such failure cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30)-day period, as determined by Lessor in its reasonable discretion, and Lessee is diligently pursuing a cure of such failure, then Lessee shall have a reasonable period to cure such failure beyond such thirty (30)-day period, which shall in no event exceed ninety (90) days after receiving notice of such failure from Lessor. If Lessee shall fail to correct or cure such failure within such ninety (90)-day period, an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder without further notice or demand of any kind being required;

(g) if a final, nonappealable judgment is rendered by a court against Lessee which has a Material Adverse Effect;
(h) if Lessee shall be liquidated or dissolved or shall begin proceedings towards its liquidation or dissolution;
(i) if the estate or interest of Lessee in any of the Properties shall be levied upon or attached in any proceeding and such estate or interest is about to be sold or transferred or such process shall not be vacated or discharged within ninety (90) days after it is made; or
(j) if there is an “Event of Default” or other breach or default by Lessee or Guarantor under any of the other Transaction Documents or any Other Agreement, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods; provided, however, in the event that this Lease has been the subject of a Securitization and any Other Agreement has not been the subject of the same Securitization or any series relating to such Securitization, an “Event of Default” under such Other Agreement shall not constitute an Event of Default under this Lease.
Section 12.02. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, with or without notice or demand, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or such other notice as may be required by statute and cannot be waived by Lessee, Lessor shall be entitled to exercise, at its option, concurrently, successively, or in any combination, all remedies available at law or in equity, including, without limitation, any one or more of the following:
(a) to terminate this Lease, whereupon Lessee’s right to possession of the Properties shall cease and this Lease, except as to Lessee’s liability, shall be terminated;
(b) to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, to (i) re-enter and take possession of the Properties (or any part thereof), any or all personal property or fixtures of Lessee upon the Properties and, to the extent permissible, all permits and other rights or privileges of Lessee pertaining to the use and operation of the Properties, and (ii) expel Lessee and those claiming under or through Lessee, without being deemed guilty in any manner of trespass or becoming liable for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, without resort to legal or judicial process, procedure or action. No notice from Lessor hereunder or under a forcible entry and detainer statute or similar law shall constitute an election by Lessor to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so states. If Lessee shall, after default, voluntarily give up possession of the Properties to Lessor, deliver to Lessor or its agents the keys to the Properties, or both, such actions shall be deemed to be in compliance with Lessor’s rights and the acceptance thereof by Lessor or its agents shall not be deemed to constitute a termination of the Lease. Lessor reserves the right following any re-entry and/or reletting to exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Lessee written notice thereof, in which event this Lease will terminate;
(c) to bring an action against Lessee for any damages sustained by Lessor or any equitable relief available to Lessor and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, to seize all personal property or fixtures upon the Properties which Lessee owns or in which it has an interest, in which Lessor shall have a landlord’s lien and/or security interest, and to dispose thereof in accordance with the laws prevailing at the time and place of such seizure or to remove all or any portion of such property and cause the same to be stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at Lessee’s sole expense, without becoming liable for any loss or damage resulting therefrom and without resorting to legal or judicial process, procedure or action;

(d) to relet the Properties or any part thereof for such term or terms (including a term which extends beyond the original Lease Term), at such rentals and upon such other terms as Lessor, in its sole discretion, may determine, with all proceeds received from such reletting being applied to the Rental and other Monetary Obligations due from Lessee in such order as Lessor may, in its sole discretion, determine, which other Monetary Obligations include, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, attorneys’ fees and expenses, alteration, remodeling and repair costs and expenses of preparing for such reletting. Except to the extent required by applicable Law, Lessor shall have no obligation to relet the Properties or any part thereof and shall in no event be liable for refusal or failure to relet the Properties or any part thereof, or, in the event of any such reletting, for refusal or failure to collect any rent due upon such reletting, and no such refusal or failure shall operate to relieve Lessee of any liability under this Lease or otherwise to affect any such liability. Lessor reserves the right following any re-entry and/or reletting to exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Lessee written notice thereof, in which event this Lease will terminate as specified in said notice;
(e) to accelerate and recover from Lessee all Rental and other Monetary Obligations due and owing and scheduled to become due and owing under this Lease both before and after the date of such breach for the entire original scheduled Lease Term;
(f) to recover from Lessee all Costs paid or incurred by Lessor as a result of such breach, regardless of whether or not legal proceedings are actually commenced;
(g) to immediately or at any time thereafter, and with or without notice, at Lessor’s sole option but without any obligation to do so, correct such breach or default and charge Lessee all Costs incurred by Lessor therein. Any sum or sums so paid by Lessor, together with interest at the Default Rate, shall be deemed to be Additional Rental hereunder and shall be immediately due from Lessee to Lessor. Any such acts by Lessor in correcting Lessee’s breaches or defaults hereunder shall not be deemed to cure said breaches or defaults or constitute any waiver of Lessor’s right to exercise any or all remedies set forth herein;
(h) to immediately or at any time thereafter, and with or without notice, except as required herein, set off any money of Lessee held by Lessor under this Lease or any other Transaction Document or any Other Agreement against any sum owing by Lessee hereunder;
(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or limiting in any way the rights of Lessor under this Lease or otherwise under applicable Laws, at any time after the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, Lessor shall be entitled to apply for and have a receiver appointed under applicable Law by a court of competent jurisdiction (by ex parte motion for appointment without notice) in any action taken by Lessor to enforce its rights and remedies hereunder in order to protect and preserve Lessor’s interest under this Lease or in the Properties and the Personalty, and in connection therewith, LESSEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO OBJECT TO OR OTHERWISE CONTEST THE APPOINTMENT OF A RECEIVER AFTER THE OCCURRENCE, AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE, OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT; and/or
(j) to seek any equitable relief available to Lessor, including, without limitation, the right of specific performance.
Section 12.03. Cumulative Remedies. All powers and remedies given by Section 12.02 to Lessor, subject to applicable Law, shall be cumulative and not exclusive of one another or of any other right or remedy or of any other powers and remedies available to Lessor under this Lease, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements of Lessee contained in this Lease, and no delay or omission of Lessor to exercise any right or power accruing upon the occurrence of any Event of Default shall impair any other or subsequent Event of Default or impair any rights or remedies consequent thereto. Every power and remedy given by this Section or by Law to Lessor may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by Lessor, subject at all times to Lessor’s right in its sole judgment to discontinue any work commenced by Lessor or change any course of action undertaken by Lessor.
Section 12.04. Lessee Waiver. Lessee hereby expressly waives, for itself and all Persons claiming by, through and under Lessee, including creditors of all kinds, (a) any right and privilege which Lessee has under any present or future Legal Requirements to redeem the Properties or to have a continuance of this Lease for the Lease Term after termination of Lessee’s right of occupancy by order or judgment of any court or by any legal process or writ, or under the terms of this Lease; (b) the benefits of any present or future Legal Requirement that exempts property from liability for debt or for distress for rent; (c) any present or future Legal Requirement relating to notice or delay in levy of execution in case of eviction of a tenant for nonpayment of rent; and (d) any benefits and lien rights which may arise pursuant to any present or future Legal Requirement.

Mortgage, Subordination and Attornment
Section 13.01. No Liens. Lessor’s interest in this Lease and/or the Properties shall not be subordinate to any liens or encumbrances placed upon the Properties by or resulting from any act of Lessee, and nothing herein contained shall be construed to require such subordination by Lessor. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT LESSEE IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO PLACE OR ALLOW TO BE PLACED ANY LIEN, MORTGAGE, DEED OF TRUST, DEED TO SECURE DEBT, SECURITY INTEREST OR ENCUMBRANCE OF ANY KIND UPON ALL OR ANY PART OF THE PROPERTIES OR LESSEE’S LEASEHOLD INTEREST THEREIN, AND ANY SUCH PURPORTED TRANSACTION SHALL BE VOID.
Section 13.02. Subordination. This Lease at all times shall automatically be subordinate to the lien of any and all ground leases and Mortgages now or hereafter placed upon any of the Properties by Lessor, and Lessee covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, upon demand, such further instruments subordinating this Lease to the lien of any or all such ground leases and Mortgages as shall be desired by Lessor, or any present or proposed mortgagees under trust deeds, upon the condition that Lessee shall have the right to remain in possession of the Properties under the terms of this Lease, notwithstanding any default in any or all such ground leases or Mortgages, or after the foreclosure of any such Mortgages, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon Lessee’s written request, Lessor agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide Lessee with a SNDA executed by each Lender holding a Mortgage, and Lessee agrees to promptly execute and return such SNDA to Lessor.
Section 13.03. Election To Declare Lease Superior. If any mortgagee, receiver or other secured party elects to have this Lease and the interest of Lessee hereunder, be superior to any Mortgage and evidences such election by notice given to Lessee, then this Lease and the interest of Lessee hereunder shall be deemed superior to any such Mortgage, whether this Lease was executed before or after such Mortgage and in that event such mortgagee, receiver or other secured party shall have the same rights with respect to this Lease as if it had been executed and delivered prior to the execution and delivery of such Mortgage and had been assigned to such mortgagee, receiver or other secured party.
Section 13.04. Attornment. In the event any purchaser or assignee of any Lender at a foreclosure sale acquires title to any of the Properties, or in the event that any Lender or any purchaser or assignee otherwise succeeds to the rights of Lessor as landlord under this Lease, Lessee shall attorn to Lender or such purchaser or assignee, as the case may be (a “Successor Lessor”), and recognize the Successor Lessor as lessor under this Lease, and, subject to the provisions of this Article XIII, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the Successor Lessor and Lessee, provided that the Successor Lessor shall only be liable for any obligations of Lessor under this Lease which accrue after the date that such Successor Lessor acquires title. The foregoing provision shall be self-operative and effective without the execution of any further instruments.
Section 13.05. Execution of Additional Documents. Although the provisions in this Article XIII shall be self-operative and no future instrument of subordination shall be required, upon request by Lessor Lessee shall execute and deliver whatever instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes.
Section 13.06. Notice to Lender. Lessee shall give written notice to any Lender having a recorded lien upon any of the Properties or any part thereof of which Lessee has been notified of any breach or default by Lessor of any of its obligations under this Lease and give such Lender at least sixty (60) days beyond any notice period to which Lessor might be entitled to cure such default before Lessee may exercise any remedy with respect thereto.

Assignment
Section 14.01. Assignment by Lessor. As a material inducement to Lessor’s willingness to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Lease (the “Transaction”) and the other Transaction Documents, Lessee hereby agrees that Lessor may, from time to time and at any time and without the consent of Lessee, engage in all or any combination of the following, or enter into agreements in connection with any of the following or in accordance with requirements that may be imposed by applicable securities, tax or other Laws: (a) the sale, assignment, grant, conveyance, transfer, financing, re-financing, purchase or re-acquisition of all, less than all or any portion of the Properties, this Lease or any other Transaction Document, Lessor’s right, title and interest in this Lease or any other Transaction Document, the servicing rights with respect to any of the foregoing, or participations in any of the foregoing; or (b) a Securitization and related transactions. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that Lessor, in its sole discretion, may assign this Lease or any interest herein to another Person (including without limitation, a taxable REIT subsidiary) in order to maintain Lessor’s or any of its Affiliates’ status as a REIT. In the event of any such sale or assignment other than a security assignment, Lessee shall attorn to such purchaser or assignee (so long as Lessor and such purchaser or assignee notify Lessee in writing of such transfer and such purchaser or assignee expressly assumes in writing the obligations of Lessor hereunder from and after the date of such assignment). At the request of Lessor, Lessee will execute such documents confirming the sale, assignment or other transfer and such other agreements as Lessor may reasonably request, provided that the same do not increase the liabilities and obligations of Lessee hereunder. Lessor shall be relieved, from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, of liability for the performance of any obligation of Lessor contained herein, except for obligations or liabilities accrued prior to such assignment or sale.
Section 14.02. No Assignment by Lessee.
(a) Lessee acknowledges that Lessor has relied both on the business experience and creditworthiness of Lessee and upon the particular purposes for which Lessee intends to use the Properties in entering into this Lease. Lessee shall not assign, transfer, convey, pledge or mortgage this Lease or any interest herein or any interest in Lessee, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Lessor. At the time of any assignment of this Lease which is approved by Lessor, the assignee shall assume all of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease pursuant to a written assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lessor. Such assignment of the Properties or this Lease pursuant to this Section 14.02 shall not relieve Lessee of its obligations respecting this Lease unless otherwise agreed to by Lessor. Any assignment, transfer, conveyance, pledge or mortgage in violation of this Section 14.02 shall be voidable at the sole option of Lessor. Any consent to an assignment given by Lessor hereunder shall not be deemed a consent to any subsequent assignment.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 14.02(a) and provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of the proposed assignment or other transfer, and provided further that any assignee agrees to assume all of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease by written agreement approved by Lessor, Lessee shall have the right to assign or otherwise transfer all, but not less than all, of its interest in, to and under this Lease without Lessor’s consent to (i) an Affiliate of Lessee, (ii) any entity which purchases or otherwise acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Lessee in a bona fide sale for fair market value, or (iii) a Qualified Operator (each, a “Permitted Transfer”). A “Qualified Operator” shall mean a Person who (x) for two (2) consecutive years immediately prior to the date of assignment or transfer and (y) on a proforma basis following the consummation of such assignment or transfer (all as determined by Lessor upon review of financial statements provided by the assignee prior to the proposed lease assignment and in a form reasonably satisfactory to Lessor), (A) has a CFCCR (defined below) of at least 1.75x; (B) generates EBITDA (defined below) of at least $1,000,000, and (C) has a Lease Adjusted Leverage (defined below) of no more than 5.0x; provided, however, that Lessee may satisfy the foregoing conditions of a Qualified Operator by providing, or causing to be provided, a guaranty agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to and approved by Lessor, in writing, which guaranty shall be from an entity that meets the requirements of (A), (B) and (C) set forth in this Section 14.02. Lessee shall provide Lessor with at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of a proposed Permitted Transfer, which, if the proposed Permitted Transfer is to a Qualified Operator, must include financial information satisfying the Qualified Operator requirements set forth herein. In the event that Lessee effects an assignment to a Qualified Operator, Lessee shall be released from any liability arising under this Lease from and after the date of such assignment and Guarantor shall be released from any liability arising under the Guaranty from and after the date of such assignment. In the event that Lessee effects a Permitted Transfer pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii), Lessee shall not be released from liability under this Lease nor shall Guarantor be released from liability under the Guaranty.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Guarantor shall be permitted to transfer an equity interest in Lessee that results in a Change in Control but that does not result in Lessee being a Qualified Operator on a proforma basis following the consummation of such transaction so long as Lessee shall have, for two (2) consecutive years immediately prior to the date of transfer (i) maintained a CFCCR of at least 1.75x, and (ii) generated EBITDA of at least $1,000,000.

Section 14.04. No Sale of Assets. Except as set forth in Sections 14.02 and 14.03, without the prior written consent of Lessor, Lessee shall not sell all or substantially all of Lessee’s assets without Lessor’s prior written consent. Any sale of Lessee’s assets in violation of this Section 14.04, shall be voidable at the sole option of Lessor. Any consent to a sale of Lessee’s assets given by Lessor hereunder shall not be deemed a consent to any subsequent sale of Lessee’s assets.
Section 14.05. Subletting. Lessee shall not sublet the Properties without the prior written consent of Lessor, which may be withheld by Lessor in its sole discretion and any such purported subletting shall be void.

Section 14.06. Collateral Assignment of Permitted Subleases. As security for the payment and performance by Lessee of its obligations under this Lease, Lessee hereby assigns, transfers, sets over and grants to Lessor, a security interest in any and all of Lessee’s right, title and interest, powers, privileges and other benefits as landlord under the Permitted Subleases, including, without limitation: (a) rent and proceeds thereof; (b) the right to enter upon, take possession of and use any and all property subleased or granted by Lessee under the Permitted Subleases; (c) the right to make all waivers and agreements, to give all notices, consents and releases, to take all action upon the happening of any default giving rise to a right in favor of Lessee under the Permitted Subleases; and (d) the right to do any and all other things whatsoever which Lessee is or may become entitled to do under the Permitted Subleases. Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, Lessee agrees that, at the option of Lessor and in addition to such other rights and remedies as may be afforded to Lessor under this Lease, Lessor shall have the right, without giving notice to or obtaining the consent of Lessee, to exercise, enforce or avail itself of any of the rights, powers, privileges, authorizations or benefits assigned and transferred to Lessor pursuant to this Section 14.06, including, without limitation, the right to collect all amounts due under the Permitted Subleases. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lessee does hereby irrevocably appoint Lessor as Lessee’s true and lawful attorney, with full power (in the name of Lessee or otherwise) to ask, require, demand, receive and give acquittance for every payment under or arising out of the Permitted Subleases to which Lessee is or may become entitled.

(c) Lessee waives any claim or defense based upon the characterization of this Lease as anything other than a true lease and as a master lease of all of the Properties. Lessee stipulates and agrees (i) not to challenge the validity, enforceability or characterization of the lease of the Properties as a true lease and/or as a single, unitary, unseverable instrument pertaining to the lease of all, but not less than all, of the Properties (except as otherwise provided in Article 11); and (ii) not to assert or take or omit to take any action inconsistent with the agreements and understandings set forth in this Section 17.04.

Lessee’s consent shall be deemed authorization for the limited use of Lessee’s Information by Lessor under all applicable copyright and trademark laws.
Section 17.06. Bankruptcy. As a material inducement to Lessor executing this Lease, Lessee acknowledges and agrees that Lessor is relying upon (a) the financial condition and specific operating experience of Lessee and Lessee’s obligation to use the Properties as Permitted Facilities; (b) Lessee’s timely performance of all of its obligations under this Lease notwithstanding the entry of an order for relief under the Bankruptcy Code for Lessee; and (c) all defaults under this Lease being cured promptly and this Lease being assumed within sixty (60) days of any order for relief entered under the Bankruptcy Code for Lessee, or this Lease being rejected within such sixty (60)-day period and the Properties surrendered to Lessor. Accordingly, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Lease and for other good and valuable consideration, Lessee hereby agrees that: (i) all obligations that accrue under this Lease (including the obligation to pay Rentals), from and after an Insolvency Event shall be timely performed exactly as provided in this Lease and any failure to so perform shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor; (ii) any and all Rentals that accrue from and after an Insolvency Event and that are not paid as required by this Lease shall, in the amount of such Rentals, constitute administrative expense claims allowable under the Bankruptcy Code with priority of payment at least equal to that of any other actual and necessary expenses incurred after an Insolvency Event; (iii) any extension of the time period within which Lessee may assume or reject this Lease without an obligation to cause all obligations under this Lease to be performed as and when required under this Lease shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor; (iv) any time period designated as the period within which Lessee must cure all defaults and compensate Lessor for all pecuniary losses which extends beyond the date of assumption of this Lease shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor; (v) any assignment of this Lease must result in all terms and conditions of this Lease being assumed by the assignee without alteration or amendment, and any assignment which results in an amendment or alteration of the terms and conditions of this Lease without the express written consent of Lessor shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor; (vi) any proposed assignment of this Lease shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor if made to an assignee: (A) that does not possess financial condition adequate to operate Permitted Facilities upon the Properties or operating performance and experience characteristics satisfactory to Lessor equal to or better than the financial condition, operating performance and experience of Lessee as of the Effective Date; or (B) that does not provide guarantors of the lease obligations with financial condition equal to or better than the financial condition of the Guarantor as of the Effective Date; and (vii) the rejection (or deemed rejection) of this Lease for any reason whatsoever shall constitute cause for immediate relief from the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, and Lessee stipulates that such automatic stay shall be lifted immediately and possession of the Properties will be delivered to Lessor immediately without the necessity of any further action by Lessor. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed a waiver of Lessor’s rights or remedies under the Bankruptcy Code or applicable Law to oppose any assumption and/or assignment of this Lease, to require timely performance of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease, or to regain possession of the Properties as a result of the failure of Lessee to comply with the terms and conditions of this Lease or the Bankruptcy Code. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, all amounts payable by Lessee to or on behalf of Lessor under this Lease, whether or not expressly denominated as such, shall constitute “rent” for the purposes of the Bankruptcy Code. For purposes of this Section addressing the rights and obligations of Lessor and Lessee upon an Insolvency Event, the term “Lessee” shall include Lessee’s successor in bankruptcy, whether a trustee, Lessee as debtor in possession or other responsible person. Notwitstanding anything in this Section 17.06 to the contrary, in the event any of the terms of Article 14 conflict with any of the terms of this Section 17.06, the terms of Article 14 shall control.
