MASTER
LAND AND BUILDING LEASE
THIS MASTER LAND AND BUILDING LEASE (this “Lease”) is made and entered into as of June 3, 2015 (the “Commencement Date”), by and between GTY-Pacific Leasing, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”) and Apro, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Tenant”).
R E C I T A L S
A. Landlord owns (i) good and indefeasible title in fee simple to the land described on Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively, the “Land”) and (ii) all improvements and other structures located on any of the Land; any rights of way, easements, parking covenants, entitlements, privileges and other rights appurtenant to the Land, including regarding any street adjoining any portion of the Land and any air and development rights related to the Land; and any and all fixtures at or on the Land, including all of the machinery, equipment and systems at or on any of the Land (collectively, “Building Equipment”), including the following (but specifically excluding any of the following that are not “fixtures” pursuant to applicable Law and excluding any Tenant Equipment that constitutes a “fixture” pursuant to applicable Law): built-in equipment; compressors; appliances; engines; electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning machinery; fire sprinklers and fire suppression equipment; lighting (including emergency lighting); security cameras and systems; paging and sound systems; walk-in coolers, refrigerated cases, built-in shelving; awnings, and supports for signs (all of the foregoing in this clause (ii), collectively, “Improvements”). The Land and all Improvements thereon are collectively referred to herein as “Demised Properties” and each individually as a “Demised Property.”
B. The personal property, trade fixtures and equipment owned or leased by Tenant located at any Demised Properties and used in connection with the operation of the business at the Demised Properties (other than the Building Equipment but including underground storage tanks, aboveground storage tanks, piping, fill and vent ports associated with such underground and aboveground storage tanks, fuel dispensers, display cases, counters, shelves, racks and billboards regardless of whether any of the foregoing constitute “fixtures” pursuant to applicable Law) are referred to herein collectively as the “Tenant Equipment.” The term “Tenant Equipment” shall include without limitation, with respect to each Demised Property, all of the foregoing, whether now or hereafter owned or acquired by Tenant, or in which Tenant has any interest (whether unattached or attached by bolts and screws and/or by utility connections or otherwise), and all additions to, substitutions for and replacements of the foregoing in this Recital B.
C. Tenant desires to lease from Landlord, and Landlord desires to lease to Tenant, the Demised Properties so that Tenant may, in accordance with and subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions of this Lease, operate (or cause the operation of) a convenience food store and/or retail automobile fuel station or another Permitted Use at each Demised Property.

D. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, this Lease constitutes a single and indivisible lease of all the Demised Properties collectively, and is not an aggregation of leases for the separate Demised Properties. The parties expressly intend that from an economic point of view the Demised Properties leased pursuant to this Lease constitute one economic unit. Neither Landlord nor Tenant would have entered into this Lease except as a single and indivisible lease, and the rental herein has been established on the basis of the specific structure of the subject transaction and the economic benefits and risk profile of the transaction as a whole, and not based on the valuation or price of any individual Demised Property. Except as expressly provided in this Lease for specific isolated purposes (and in such cases only to the extent expressly so stated), all provisions of this Lease, including definitions, commencement and expiration dates, rental provisions, use provisions, renewal provisions, breach, default, enforcement, termination, and subletting provisions, shall apply equally and uniformly to the Demised Properties as one unit and are not severable. Tenant’s rights to any one Demised Property are dependent on Tenant’s full performance of its obligations as to every other Demised Property, and consideration supporting any agreements under this Lease regarding any Demised Property also supports the agreements under this Lease regarding all other Demised Properties.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the lease of the Demised Properties and the rents, covenants and conditions herein set forth, and with reference to the definitions of various terms used herein as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant, promise and agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1 DEMISE OF PREMISES
Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Landlord does hereby lease unto Tenant, and Tenant does hereby lease from Landlord, for the term hereinafter provided in Article 2, the Demised Properties for the use thereof by Tenant, Tenant’s employees, customers and invitees.
ARTICLE 2 TERM
Section 2.01
(a) This Lease shall commence on the Commencement Date and terminate on June 3, 2035 (the “Original Lease Term”), unless sooner terminated as hereinafter set forth. The “Lease Term,” as such term is used herein, means the Original Lease Term as extended (or as may be extended) pursuant to Section 2.02 below, unless sooner terminated as hereinafter set forth.
(b) This Lease shall be deemed to be in full force and effect upon the Commencement Date. Tenant shall be deemed to be in possession of the Demised Properties upon the Commencement Date.
Section 2.02

The second option period (the “Second Option Period”) shall commence at the expiration of the First Option Period. The third option period (the “Third Option Period”) shall commence at the expiration of the Second Option Period.

(A) an amount equal to (i) the aggregate Base Rent for all of the Demised Properties that are subject to this Lease immediately prior to the applicable Option Period Adjustment Date (the “Current Demised Properties”), minus (ii) the aggregate of the Adjustment Amounts, as set forth on Schedule 2 hereto, for each of the Current Demised Properties that were not included in the PE Option Extension Properties designated in the Extension Notice applicable to such PE Option Period (which Adjustment Amounts shall be increased by the cumulative percentage increase in the Base Rent pursuant to Section 3.02 since the Commencement Date);

After delivery to Landlord by Tenant of a timely and valid exercise of a PE Option, and not later than thirty (30) days prior to the commencement of the applicable PE Option Period, Landlord shall calculate the PE Option Base Rent for each year of such PE Option Period and notify Tenant of such calculation, which shall be binding on the parties absent manifest error.
Section 3.03 Additional Rent.
(a) If by applicable Law, any general or special assessment or like charge may be paid in installments without any penalty whatsoever, then such assessment may be paid in such installments, and Tenant shall only be liable for the portion thereof that is allocable or attributable to the Lease Term or any portion thereof. If such assessment or charge may be payable in installments with interest, Tenant may pay such assessment or charge in installments, together with all interest thereon.
(b) Tenant shall pay all Real Estate Taxes [***]1.
(c) Tenant shall have the right to undertake an action or proceeding against the applicable collecting authority seeking an abatement of Real Estate Taxes or a reduction in the valuation of the Demised Properties and/or contest the applicability of any Real Estate Taxes (including, without limitation, a reduction in the value of any Demised Properties under the terms of Proposition 8 (as adopted by the voters of the State of California in the November 1978 election)); provided, however, that Tenant delivers to Landlord prior written notice of any such action or proceeding by Tenant, and that Tenant has paid timely (and continues to pay timely) all Real Estate Taxes as provided in this Lease to the extent required by applicable Law. In any instance where any such permitted action or proceeding is being undertaken by Tenant, (i) Landlord shall cooperate reasonably with Tenant, at no cost or expense to Landlord, execute any and all documents approved by Landlord and reasonably required in connection therewith, and, to the extent required by the collecting authority, agrees to file at Tenant’s request any action or proceeding against the collecting authority in its own name, and (ii) Tenant shall provide Landlord with all information reasonably requested by Landlord with respect to such action or proceeding within five (5) days after receipt of Landlord’s written request. Tenant shall be entitled to any refund (after the deduction therefrom of all expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith) of any Real Estate Taxes (including penalties or interest thereon) received by Tenant or Landlord, whether or not such refund was a result of actions or proceedings instituted by Tenant, to the extent such refund relates to Real Estate Taxes that are the responsibility of Tenant pursuant to this Section 3.03.
(d) Tenant shall be solely responsible for, and shall pay directly to the applicable service providers, the cost of all utility services provided to the Demised Properties throughout the Lease Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of both of the following events, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost of any and all utility services provided to the Demised Properties in lieu of payment directly to the applicable service providers: (i) delivery to Tenant of a written request therefor from Landlord, and (ii) any Default under this Section 3.03(d) by Tenant, or any Event of Default. Funds paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be used only for the payment of the cost of utility services to the Demised Properties. If Tenant fails to pay the appropriate party (Landlord or the service providers, as provided herein) all such costs when due hereunder, then Tenant shall, without limiting any other remedies available to Landlord, reimburse Landlord for any and all penalties or interest, or portion thereof, paid or incurred by Landlord as a result of such nonpayment or late payment by Tenant.

(e) Without limiting any of Tenant’s other obligations set forth in this Article, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, with each payment due to Landlord hereunder (and as a part of Rent due hereunder), all sales and excise tax on rental income and all other similar taxes imposed with respect to rental or other payments under this Lease in the nature of a sales tax, occupancy tax, commercial rents tax or the like, whether imposed by a federal, state or local taxing authority. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, Tenant may pay any such tax directly to the taxing authority, provided (i) Tenant establishes such right to Landlord’s satisfaction prior to making any such payment, and (ii) Tenant, within ten (10) days after any such payment, delivers to Landlord written evidence satisfactory to Landlord that such payment has been made. For the avoidance of doubt, Tenant shall not be responsible for (i) any income taxes imposed on Landlord, (ii) any franchise taxes of Landlord measured by net income or net worth, or (iii) any transfer taxes imposed with respect to the sale, exchange or other disposition by Landlord, in whole or in part, of the Demised Properties or Landlord’s interest in this Lease (unless such sale, exchange or other disposition by Landlord is to Tenant or an Affiliate of Tenant, or is otherwise made at Tenant’s request).
ARTICLE 4 USE
Section 4.01 Tenant shall use and occupy the Demised Properties as convenience stores with retail motor fuel sales in compliance with all zoning regulations, building codes and all applicable Law. Any change in the current use of the Demised Properties shall be prohibited unless Tenant obtains Landlord’s prior written approval, which approval shall be given or withheld in Landlord’s reasonable discretion; provided, however, that Tenant shall be permitted, without Landlord’s consent but subject to compliance with all zoning regulations, building codes and all applicable Law, to add (i) fast food restaurant and/or coffee shop operations within the existing building on any Demised Property, (ii) a car wash and/or (iii) a fast lube or quick oil change facility; and provided, further, that such uses shall be in addition to and not in substitution for the uses prescribed in the first sentence of this paragraph.
Section 4.02 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, Tenant shall not use, or suffer or permit any Person (including any subtenant) to use, the Demised Properties or any portion thereof for any purpose in violation of any applicable Law, or in violation of any covenants or restrictions of record. From the Commencement Date and thereafter throughout the Lease Term, Tenant shall conduct its business in a commercially reasonable and reputable manner with respect to each of the Demised Properties and in compliance with the terms and provisions of this Lease. The character of the occupancy of the Demised Properties is an additional consideration and a material inducement for the granting of this Lease by Landlord to Tenant.
Section 4.03 Without limitation, no provision of this Article 4 shall limit any of the covenants of Tenant contained in Article 22.

ARTICLE 5 PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS; ACCEPTANCE OF DEMISED PROPERTIES
Tenant hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Landlord that Tenant has the right and lawful authority to enter into this Lease and perform Tenant’s obligations hereunder. Tenant acknowledges that it has (a) had access to the Demised Properties prior to execution of this Lease, (b) had the opportunity to perform all tests, studies, inspections and investigations (including any investigations regarding zoning and use issues regarding all Demised Properties) it desired, and (c) evaluated the Demised Properties as to the Demised Properties’ suitability for Tenant’s intended operations thereon. Tenant hereby accepts each Demised Property in its AS IS condition existing on the date Tenant executes this Lease, subject to (x) all applicable Law, (y) all private easements and restrictions, governing and regulating the use, operation or maintenance of the Demised Properties, whether or not of record (collectively, the “Diligence Matters”), and (z) all matters disclosed by this Lease, and by any exhibits attached hereto. Tenant waives to the fullest extent allowed by Law any rights to notice by Landlord regarding the condition of the Demised Properties, whether at law or in equity, and hereby waives any rights and remedies thereunder based in any alleged or actual failure of Landlord to provide any such notices. Tenant acknowledges that (i) neither Landlord nor any of its Affiliates has made any representation or warranty as to the suitability of any Demised Property for the conduct of the Tenant’s business, and (ii) Tenant is entering into this Lease solely on the basis of its own investigations and familiarity with the Demised Properties and not on the basis of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, undertaking, promise, statement, arrangement or understanding by, on behalf of, or with, Landlord or any of its Affiliates, except as expressly set forth in this Lease.
ARTICLE 6 ALTERATIONS
Subject to the provisions of this Article 6, Tenant shall have no right to make alterations or additions to the Improvements (collectively, “Alterations”) at any Demised Property that involve structural changes without prior written consent of Landlord, which Landlord agrees it will not withhold unreasonably; provided, however, in no event shall any Alterations be made that, after completion, would: (i) reduce the value of the Improvements as they existed prior to the time that said Alterations are made; or (ii) adversely affect the structural integrity of the Improvements. Tenant may install new underground storage tanks (including all vent and fill ports and associated piping), and any above-ground storage tanks.

(a) Termination. Landlord shall have the right, with or without notice or demand, immediately upon expiration of any applicable notice or grace period specified herein, to terminate this Lease (or Tenant’s possession of any of the Demised Properties), and at any time thereafter recover possession of all or any portion of the Demised Properties or any part thereof and expel and remove therefrom Tenant and any other Person occupying the same by any lawful means, and repossess and enjoy all or any portion of the Demised Properties without prejudice to any of the remedies that Landlord may have under this Lease. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease (or to terminate Tenant’s right of possession), Landlord shall also have the right to reenter the Demised Properties and take possession of and remove all personal property of Tenant, if any, in such Demised Properties, subject to the rights thereto of any Tenant’s lenders under any Credit Facility and the terms of any Landlord Waiver and Collateral Access Agreement that may be entered into between Landlord and the Administrative Agent. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease and/or Tenant’s right to possession, or if Tenant’s right to possession is otherwise terminated by operation of Law, Landlord may recover as damages from Tenant the following: (i) all Rent then due under this Lease through the date of termination; (ii) the Rent due for the remainder of the Lease Term in excess of the fair market rental value of the Demised Properties for the remainder of the Lease Term, including any and all Additional Rent (each discounted by the discount rate [***]1); (iii) the cost of reletting the Demised Properties, including the anticipated period of vacancy until such Demised Properties can be re-let at their fair market rental values; and (iv) any other costs and expenses that Landlord may reasonably incur in connection with the Event of Default. Unless required by applicable Law, Landlord shall have no obligation to mitigate its damages caused by the Event of Default (or Tenant’s Default under this Lease), but if Landlord does attempt to so mitigate its damages, such efforts by Landlord shall not waive Landlord’s right to recover damages under the foregoing provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not exercise its right to terminate this Lease or Tenant’s possession of any of the Demised Properties without giving Administrative Agent prior written notice of the Event of Default and a reasonable period within which to cure such Event of Default, which period shall be not less than five (5) Business Days in the event of an Event of Default of the type described in Section 15.01(a) or Section 15.01(b), and which shall be not less than fifteen (15) days in the case of all other Events of Default.
(b) Continuation after Event of Default. If Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease, then this Lease shall continue in effect, and Landlord may enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover Rent as it becomes due, and Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may exercise all of the rights and remedies of a landlord at law or in equity, subject to Article 26. Landlord shall not be deemed to have terminated this Lease except by an express statement in writing. Acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet the Demised Properties, or the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease shall not constitute an election to terminate Tenant’s right to possession unless such election is expressly stated in writing by Landlord. Notwithstanding any such reletting without such termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate Tenant’s right to possession and this Lease. If Landlord elects to relet the Demised Properties for the account of Tenant, the rent received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied as follows: first, to the payment of any and all costs of such reletting (including attorneys’ fees, brokers’ fees, and the cost of alterations and repairs to any of the Demised Properties, and tenant improvement costs); second, to the payment of any and all indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; third, to the payment of any and all Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the balance, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as it becomes due. If the rent received from the reletting is less than the sum of the costs of reletting, other indebtedness due by Tenant, and the Rent due by Tenant, then Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord within ten (10) days after written demand by Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly.

If any payment of Base Rent or Additional Rent is not received by Landlord from Tenant when such payment is due to Landlord hereunder, such payment shall be deemed delinquent and Tenant shall pay to Landlord (i) a late fee of five percent (5%) of each such delinquent payment, and (ii) interest on the past due amounts at a rate per annum equal to the prime lending rate, as then most recently published by the Wall Street Journal, plus ten percent (10%) (but not more than the highest rate permitted by Law), which amounts shall be due and payable to Landlord simultaneously with the delinquent Base Rent or delinquent Additional Rent, as the case may be.

Without limiting the generality of the forgoing, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) any sublease with respect to any Demised Property or portion thereof entered into from and after the Commencement Date shall expressly provide that it is subject and subordinate to this Lease, and (ii), in the event of any assignment of this Lease, Tenant shall remain jointly and severally liable with the assignee for all of the obligations under this Lease, and in all other cases of any transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Lease, Tenant shall remain primarily liable for such obligations.

In the event of the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease with respect to any applicable Demised Property, then, subject to Section 22.01(b), Landlord shall, at its option, have the right to succeed to the interest of Tenant as landlord under all Subleases with respect to such Demised Property, except that Landlord shall not be liable for any defaults of Tenant occurring prior to the date that Landlord succeeds to the interest of Tenant as landlord under such Subleases.
ARTICLE 23 FINANCINGS
Section 23.01 Subject to and accordance with the terms and provisions of the SNDA referenced below, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all present and future ground or underlying leases of any of the Demised Properties and to the lien of any mortgages or trust deeds, now or hereafter in force, against any of the Demised Properties, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security of such mortgages or trust deeds, unless the holders of such mortgages or trust deeds, or the lessors under such ground or underlying leases, require in writing that this Lease be superior thereto; and Tenant covenants and agrees in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any mortgage or deed of trust to which this Lease is subordinate, or in the event of any termination of any ground or underlying lease to which this Lease is subordinate, to attorn, without any deductions, claims or set-offs whatsoever, to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure sale, if so requested to do so by such purchaser, and to the ground or underlying lease lessor, if so requested to do so by such ground or underlying lease lessor, and to recognize such purchaser or ground or underlying lessor, as the case may be, as the lessor under this Lease; provided, however, that the foregoing subordination to future ground or underlying leases of the Demised Properties and to the lien of any future mortgages or trust deeds in force against the Demised Properties shall be conditioned upon Landlord providing Tenant with a subordination,

non-disturbance and attornment agreement in favor of Tenant in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, or other commercially reasonable form requested by Landlord that provides, without limitation, that this Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder shall survive any foreclosure proceeding brought under such mortgage or deed of trust or termination of such ground or underlying lease (as applicable), provided an Event of Default has not occurred and is continuing under this Lease (either, an “SNDA”). Without limiting the foregoing, (a) as of the Commencement Date, each of Landlord, Landlord’s Lender, and Tenant shall execute and deliver to each other an SNDA in the form previously agreed to among Landlord, Tenant and Landlord’s Lender; provided, however, that the parties hereto agree that all subsequent SNDAs shall be on the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, or such other commercially reasonable form requested by Landlord, consistent with the first sentence of this Section 23.01, and (b) Tenant shall, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any subtenant, from time to time, within twenty (20) days after any request by Landlord, to execute and deliver such other instruments or assurances as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease (at Landlord’s election) to any such mortgages, trust deeds, ground or underlying leases (including, at Landlord’s election, one or more additional SNDAs requested by Landlord’s Lender).
Section 23.02
(a) Notwithstanding Section 22.01, but subject to the terms of this Article 23, Landlord agrees that Tenant shall have the right to encumber, collaterally assign, pledge or hypothecate Tenant’s interest in the leasehold estate created by this Lease without Landlord’s prior written consent so long as such encumbrance, assignment or pledge is in favor of a real estate investment trust, bank, saving and loan association, investment bank, insurance company, trust company, commercial credit corporation, pension plan, pension fund or pension advisory firm, mutual fund, government entity or plan that satisfies the Eligibility Requirements (defined below). All proceeds from any Leasehold Mortgage shall remain the property of Tenant. Landlord shall not be obligated to subordinate any or all of Landlord’s right, title or interest in and to the Demised Properties or this Lease to the lien of any Leasehold Mortgage. A Leasehold Mortgage shall encumber only Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Demised Properties and shall not encumber Landlord’s right, title or interest in the Demised Properties. Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever for the payment or performance of any obligation secured by any Leasehold Mortgage or related obligations. A Leasehold Mortgage shall be, and hereafter shall continue at all times to be, subject to each and all of the covenants, conditions and restrictions set forth in this Lease, and junior, subject and subordinate, in each and every respect, to all rights and interests of any Landlord’s Mortgagee now or hereafter affecting any of the Demised Properties, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the SNDA. Should there be any conflict between the provisions of this Lease and the provisions of any Leasehold Mortgage, the provisions of this Lease shall control. No Leasehold Mortgage shall be for a term longer than the then current Lease Term. Upon written request from Tenant, Landlord agrees to deliver an estoppel certificate and/or agreement in favor of Tenant’s Lender regarding this Lease, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant’s Lender. If Landlord delivers to Tenant a Default notice under this Lease, Landlord shall notify any Tenant’s Lender that has

delivered to Landlord a prior written request for such notice, and Landlord shall recognize and accept the performance of any obligation of Tenant hereunder by Tenant’s Lender (provided said performance occurs within the same cure periods as provided to Tenant under this Lease); provided, however that nothing contained herein shall obligate Tenant’s Lender to take any such actions. Any act by Tenant or Tenant’s Lender in violation of this Section 23.02 shall be null and void and of no force or effect. Tenant shall, without charge, at any time and from time to time, within twenty (20) days after any request by Landlord, obtain from Tenant’s Lender and deliver to Landlord or any other Person specified by Landlord, duly executed and acknowledged, an estoppel certificate certifying (x) copies of the documents creating, evidencing and securing the debt secured by any Leasehold Mortgage, (y) whether, to the knowledge of Tenant’s Lender, any default exists under such Leasehold Mortgage and (z) such other matters relating to such Leasehold Mortgage as Landlord may reasonably request. This Section shall survive termination of this Lease. “Eligibility Requirements” as used in this Section means, with respect to any entity, that such entity (i) has total assets (in name or under management) in excess of $600,000,000 and (except with respect to a pension advisory firm or similar fiduciary) either (x) capital/statutory surplus or shareholder’s equity of $250,000,000 or (y) market capitalization of at least $400,000,000, and (ii) is regularly engaged in the business of making or owning commercial real estate loans (including mezzanine loans to direct or indirect owners of commercial properties, which loans are secured by pledges of direct or indirect ownership interests in the owners of such commercial properties) or operating commercial real estate properties.
(b) Concurrently with the execution of this Lease, Landlord has executed and delivered to Tenant’s Lender and Xxxxxxxx 66 Company (“PSX”) that certain Estoppel, Consent and Agreement of even date herewith, which shall be binding on Landlord’s successors and assigns.
ARTICLE 24 ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
Tenant shall, without charge, at any time and from time to time, within twenty (20) days after any request by Landlord, deliver to Landlord or any other Person specified by Landlord, a completed Estoppel Certificate, duly executed and acknowledged, in substantially the form as set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto, or other commercially reasonable estoppel certificate confirming such information regarding this Lease and Tenant as Landlord may request (either, an “Estoppel Certificate”). Tenant’s failure to deliver to Landlord any Estoppel Certificate requested by Landlord as and when provided in this Article shall be deemed conclusive against Tenant as to the truthfulness of the items stated in such Estoppel Certificate requested by Landlord.

ARTICLE 25 RECORDING
Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Lease; provided, however, concurrently with the execution hereof, each party shall join in the execution and recordation of a memorandum of lease (or similar instrument) in a form substantially similar to the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. Tenant shall pay all costs charged by the applicable local recorder in connection with the recordation of any such memorandum of lease (or similar instrument); provided further that, as a condition to the recording of any such memorandum of lease, Tenant shall have executed and delivered in escrow to Landlord a release of such memorandum in such form and substance as shall be reasonably acceptable to Landlord, together with Tenant’s written authorization for the recording of such release upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant shall pay all costs charged by the applicable local recorder in connection with the recordation of any such memorandum of lease (or similar instrument) and release thereof.
ARTICLE 26 APPLICABLE LAW; JUDICIAL REFERENCE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL
Section 26.01 This Lease shall be construed in accordance with, and this Lease and all matters arising out of or relating to this Lease (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) shall be governed by, the law of the State of California without regard to conflicts of law principles. If any provision of this Lease or the application thereof shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.
Section 26.02
(a) Because disputes arising in connection with complex transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and further because Landlord and Tenant (collectively, the “Parties”) wish applicable California State and Federal laws to apply, the Parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judicial referee applying such applicable laws. The Parties expressly waive trial by jury in any action, suit, or proceeding brought to resolve any dispute, whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise, arising out of, connected with, related to, or incidental to this Lease and/or the relationship established among the Parties in connection with this Lease or related document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (a “Dispute”) to the full extent permitted by law.
(b) Accordingly, any Dispute arising out of or in connection with this Lease and/or the relationship established among the Parties in connection with this Lease or related document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, shall be resolved pursuant to the provisions for reference and trial by referee (without jury) set forth in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq., or any successor statute or statute, court rule, or provision of law containing reasonably similar provisions in accordance with the provisions of this Section 26.02. The referee (“Referee”) shall be a retired or former California or Federal judge residing in the Los Angeles, California area, who is either (i) agreed to by the Parties to a Dispute within fifteen (15) days of the notice by any Party to the other(s) of the intention to invoke this Section 26.02 to resolve the Dispute, or (ii) failing such agreement, is appointed pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 640, or any successor statute or statute, court rule, or provision of law containing reasonably similar provisions, in an action filed in the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, California.

(c) The Parties agree that any Party may (and, if necessary, the other Parties shall join in such filing) file with the clerk of the Los Angeles County Superior Court, and/or with the appropriate judge of such court, any and all petitions, motions, applications or other documents necessary to obtain the appointment of such a Referee immediately upon the commencement of any action or proceeding to resolve any Dispute, and to conduct all necessary discovery and to proceed to a trial as expeditiously as possible. The action shall be conducted and the issues determined in compliance with all judicial rules and all statutory and decisional law of the State of California as if the matter were formally litigated in the Superior Court and not by way of judicial reference. It is the Parties’ intention and the Parties and the Referee shall use their best efforts to be certain that (i) discovery be conducted for a period no longer than six (6) months from the date (the “Referee Date”) the Referee is appointed (whether by stipulation or by the Superior Court), excluding motions regarding discovery, and (ii) trial be set on a date that is within nine (9) months of the Referee Date. All discovery motions shall be filed with the Referee and served upon the opposing Party no later than the last day of the six-month discovery period; provided that the Parties agree to grant such reasonable extensions of time necessary to reflect the complexities of the issues presented for resolution. All proceedings, including trial, before the Referee shall be conducted at a neutral location (unless otherwise stipulated by the Parties) within twenty-five (25) miles of the downtown Los Angeles County Superior Court. The Parties agree that said Referee shall be a judge for all purposes (including, without limitation, (x) ruling on any and all discovery matters and motions and any and all pretrial or trial motions, (y) setting a schedule of pretrial proceedings, and (z) making any other orders or rulings a sitting judge of the Superior Court would be empowered to make in any action or proceeding in the Superior Court). Any matter before the Referee shall be governed by the substantive law of California, its Code of Civil Procedure, Rules of Court, Evidence Code, and such other statutes or rules which would be applicable if the matter were tried in the Superior Court, except as otherwise specifically agreed by the Parties and approved by the Referee. The Parties intend this general reference agreement to be specifically enforceable in accordance with the California Code of Civil Procedure. Any decision of the Referee and/or judgment or other order entered thereon shall be appealable to the same extent and in the same manner that such decision, judgment, or order would be appealable if rendered by a judge of the Los Angeles County Superior Court. The Referee shall in his/her statement of decision set forth his/her findings of fact and conclusions of law.
(d) During the pendency of any action or proceeding respecting a Dispute, and before the entry of any judgment therein, each of the parties to such action or proceeding shall bear equal shares of the fees charged and costs incurred by the Referee in connection with performing the services provided in this Section. The compensation of the Referee shall not exceed the prevailing rate for like services. The prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable court costs and legal fees, including customary attorney fees, expert witness fees, paralegal fees, the fees of the Referee and other reasonable costs and disbursements charged to the party by its counsel, in such amount as is determined by the Referee. If a court reporter is requested by either party, then such reporter shall be present at all proceedings, and the fees of such reporter shall be borne by the party requesting such reporter. Such fees shall be an item of recoverable costs.
(e) Nothing in this Section 26.02 shall prejudice the right of any Party to obtain provisional relief or other equitable remedies as shall otherwise be available under the Code of Civil Procedure and/or applicable Court rules.

Section 26.03 TENANT AND LANDLORD EACH ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS ARTICLE ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO THE OTHER PARTY’S ENTERING INTO THIS LEASE.
ARTICLE 27 LIABILITY OF PARTIES
Section 27.01 The obligations of Landlord under this Lease are not personal obligations of the individual members, partners, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees of Landlord. Tenant shall look solely to the Demised Properties for satisfaction of any liability of Landlord and shall not look to other assets of Landlord nor seek recourse against the assets of the individual members, partners, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees of Landlord. Whenever Landlord transfers its interest in any Demised Property, Landlord shall be automatically released from further performance under this Lease with respect to such Demised Property and from all further liabilities and expenses hereunder related to such Demised Property, whether arising before or after such transfer.
Section 27.02 The obligations of Tenant under this Lease are not personal obligations of the individual members, partners, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees of Tenant, and Landlord shall not seek recourse against the assets of the individual members, partners, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees of Tenant. If more than one Person is named as Tenant hereunder, the obligations under this Lease of all such Persons as Tenant shall be joint and several.
ARTICLE 28 ATTORNEYS’ FEES; EXPENSES
Without limiting any other obligation of Tenant to timely indemnify or reimburse Landlord hereunder (including under Article 9 and Article 29), if any party to this Lease shall bring any action or proceeding for any relief against the other, declaratory or otherwise, arising out of this Lease, the losing party shall pay to the prevailing party a reasonable sum for attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in bringing or defending such action or proceeding and/or enforcing any judgment granted therein, all of which shall be deemed to have accrued upon the commencement of such action or proceeding and shall be paid whether or not such action or proceeding is prosecuted to final judgment. Any judgment or order entered in such action or proceeding shall contain a specific provision providing for the recovery of attorneys’ fees and costs, separate from the judgment, incurred in enforcing such judgment. The prevailing party shall be determined by the trier of fact based upon an assessment of which party’s major arguments or positions taken in the proceedings could fairly be said to have prevailed over the other party’s major arguments or positions on major disputed issues; provided, however, that the parties agree that in no event shall Tenant be deemed a prevailing party if an Event of Default then exists under this Lease. For the purposes of this provision, attorneys’ fees shall include fees incurred in the following: (i) post-judgment motions; (ii) contempt proceedings; (iii) garnishment, levy, and debtor and third party examinations; (iv) discovery; and (v) bankruptcy litigation. This provision is intended to be expressly severable from the other provisions of this Lease, is intended to survive any judgment and is not to be deemed merged into the judgment. The cost of the reference set forth in Section 26.02 herein shall initially be borne pro rata by the parties, but the prevailing party shall be entitled to obtain reimbursement for its pro rata share of the reference cost, and shall be awarded such costs, in addition to all other recoverable costs pursuant to this Article 28.

ARTICLE 29 ENVIRONMENTAL

If any Remedial Activities are required to be performed at any location other than the Demised Properties, Tenant shall use its best efforts to obtain any required access agreements from third parties.
Section 29.03 In addition to any other obligation herein, Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold Landlord Parties free and harmless from and against any and all Losses and other obligations of any kind whatsoever that may be made against or incurred by Landlord Parties in connection with any of the following: (a) the violation of any Environmental Law or (b) the presence of Hazardous Materials or Environmental Conditions at, on, under, about or from the Demised Properties during the Lease Term (and in the event of any holding over by Tenant, during any period that Tenant occupies the relevant Demised Property), whether or not the same constitute a violation of any Environmental Law and whether or not such condition existed prior to the Lease Term, including any and all costs and fees of attorneys or experts incurred by Landlord in defending against same. This and any other right of Landlord under this Lease shall inure to the benefit of Landlord’s successors and assigns, as well as Landlord’s Lenders and Landlord’s Mortgagees, and their respective successors and assigns as third party beneficiaries.

Section 29.04 Tenant shall promptly inform Landlord in writing of (a) any and all enforcement actions, initiation of Remedial Activities where no Remedial Activities are currently being conducted upon receipt of such notification, or other governmental or regulatory actions (excluding routine actions such as permit renewals) instituted, completed or threatened pursuant to any Environmental Laws affecting the Demised Properties; (b) all claims made or threatened by any third Person against Tenant or the Demised Properties relating in any way whatsoever to Hazardous Materials or Environmental Conditions (the matters set forth in clauses (a) and (b) are hereinafter referred to as “Environmental Claims”); (c) Tenant’s knowledge of any material Release of Hazardous Materials at, on, in, under to or from the Demised Properties or on, in or under any adjoining property. Tenant shall also supply to Landlord within three Business Days after Tenant first receives or sends the same, copies of all claims, reports, complaints, notices, warnings, asserted violations or other communications relating in any way to the matters described in this Section.
Section 29.05 In addition to any other obligations herein, Tenant shall be solely responsible for and shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold harmless all Landlord Parties from and against any and all Losses directly or indirectly arising out of or associated in any manner whatsoever with Tenant’s Use or the presence of Hazardous Materials (regardless of whether such condition existed prior to the Lease Term) or Release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under, about or from the Demised Properties during the Lease Term (and in the event of any holding over by Tenant, during any period that Tenant occupies the relevant Demised Property).

Section 29.06 Without limiting the foregoing or anything contained in Article 8, Tenant acknowledges that Governmental Authorities have imposed, and from time to may impose, obligations affecting some or all of the Demised Properties, or operations thereon, in response to climate change issues, including energy efficiency mandates, water conservation mandates, restrictions on sales or use of certain fuels, mandates for alternative fuels, permitting obligations, restrictions on or a duty to inventory and report green house gas emissions, requirements to purchase carbon credits, construction, operational or other measures to mitigate risks of drought, fire, flood, rising sea levels, storm surge risks, so-called “extreme weather” risks and other legal obligations, whether adopted pursuant to Environmental Laws or other Laws.

Moreover, Tenant agrees that the cost or disruption to operations imposed by any such applicable Laws, permits, and requirements of all Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction over the relevant Demised Properties shall not excuse full performance of this Lease by Tenant.
ARTICLE 30 LANDLORD ASSIGNMENT
Section 30.01 This Lease shall be fully assignable by Landlord or its successors and assigns, in whole or in part, subject to the terms of Article 27 and this Article 30. In the event that from time to time Landlord desires to assign partially its interest in this Lease with respect to one or more of the Demised Properties (including to one or more Affiliates of Landlord), then (a) Landlord shall determine in its sole discretion, the Base Rent allocated to any Demised Properties covered by the partial assignment (the “Allocated Base Rent Amount”), (b) Landlord, at its cost and expense, shall prepare a landlord assignment lease agreement (or landlord assignment lease agreements, in Landlord’s discretion) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E with respect to any such Demised Properties (each, a “Landlord Assignment Lease Agreement”); (c) upon the assignment by Landlord, this Lease shall be amended to exclude any such Demised Properties from this Lease, and the Base Rent hereunder shall be reduced by the Allocated Base Rent Amount; and (d) the Base Rent payable under the Landlord Assignment Lease Agreement (or Landlord Assignment Lease Agreements) shall equal the Allocated Base Rent Amount. In such event, Tenant shall execute any such new Landlord Assignment Lease Agreement within five (5) Business Days after delivery to Tenant of an execution version thereof. In addition, Tenant shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered, as applicable) to Landlord any other instruments and documents requested by Landlord in connection with the assignment, including any commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement that may be requested by Landlord’s assignee’s lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant agrees to cooperate reasonably with Landlord in connection with any such assignment.

Exhibit E, and (ii) a provision regarding governing law and waiver of jury trial materially identical to Article 26 of this Lease in lieu of the language in Article 26 of the form of Landlord Lease Assignment Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E); and (z) any Landlord assignee that is a Landlord’s Affiliate may, in its sole discretion, elect to conform the terms of such Landlord Assignment Lease Agreement (other than Base Rent) to this Lease, rather than to the form of Landlord Assignment Lease Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E.
Section 30.02 Landlord and Tenant agree that this Lease constitutes a true lease and not a financing or other form of transaction (including for federal income tax purposes). In furtherance of the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant each irrevocably waives any claim or defense based upon the characterization of this Lease as anything other than a true lease and irrevocably waives any claim or defense that asserts that this Lease is anything other than a true lease. Landlord and Tenant covenant and agree that they will not assert that this Lease is anything but a true lease. Landlord and Tenant each stipulate and agree not to challenge the validity, enforceability or characterization of this Lease of the Demised Properties as a true lease and further stipulate and agree that nothing contained in this Lease creates or is intended to create a joint venture, partnership (either de jure or de facto), equitable mortgage, trust, financing device or arrangement, security interest or the like. Landlord and Tenant each shall support the intent of the parties that the lease of the Demised Properties pursuant to this Lease is a true lease and does not create a joint venture, partnership (either de jure or de facto), equitable mortgage, trust, financing device or arrangement, security interest or the like, if, and to the extent that, any challenge occurs. Tenant has discussed the characterization of this Lease with its independent auditors and Tenant believes that this Lease will be treated as an operating lease rather than a capital lease. Landlord shall have the sole right to claim all depreciation with respect to the Demised Properties. For the avoidance of doubt, Tenant shall be entitled to claim all depreciation with respect to any Tenant Equipment.
Section 30.03 Landlord and Tenant agree that this Lease constitutes a single and indivisible lease as to all of the Demised Properties collectively and shall not be subject to severance or division unless and to the extent, (i) pursuant to Section 30.01, Landlord elects to effect a partial assignment of this Lease, (ii) Tenant elects to exercise a PE Option pursuant to Section 2.02, or (iii) there shall occur a replacement of a Demised Property pursuant to Article 31. In furtherance of the foregoing, and except as may result from the amendment of this Lease to eliminate certain Demised Properties and reduce Base Rent in conjunction with the execution of Landlord Assignment Lease Agreements pursuant to the terms of Section 30.01, Landlord and Tenant each (a) waives any claim or defense based upon the characterization of this Lease as anything other than a master lease of all the Demised Properties and irrevocably waives any claim or defense that asserts that this Lease is anything other than a master lease, (b) covenants and agrees that it will not assert that this Lease is anything but a unitary, unseverable instrument pertaining to the lease of all, but not less than all, of the Demised Properties, (c) stipulates and agrees not to challenge the validity, enforceability or characterization of this Lease of the Demised Properties as a unitary, unseverable instrument pertaining to the lease of all, but not less than all, of the Demised Properties, and (iv) shall support the intent of the parties that this Lease is a unitary, unseverable instrument pertaining to the lease of all, but not less than all, of the Demised Properties, if, and to the extent that, any challenge occurs. To the extent that legal, tax or title insurance requirements in consummating the purchase of the Demised Properties by Landlord or leasing the Demised Properties to Tenant, may require, or may have required, individual purchase price allocations (including allocations of values for individual state transfer tax purposes and title insurance coverage amounts) or individual rent

allocations (including allocations of rents in certain states for tax purposes), Landlord and Tenant agree that such individual allocations are solely to comply with legal, tax or title insurance requirements, and shall not be used or construed, directly or indirectly, to vary the intent of Landlord and Tenant that this Lease constitutes a single and indivisible lease of all the Demised Properties collectively and is not an aggregation of separate leases.
ARTICLE 31 REPLACEMENTS
In the event Tenant determines that any of the Demised Properties is no longer economically feasible, Tenant shall be permitted to request that such Demised Property be severed from the Demised Properties demised pursuant to the terms of this Lease and another property be substituted in its place. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that it may only request that [***]1 Portfolio Properties per year under this Lease and the Other Leases be substituted and that an aggregate of not more than [***]1 Portfolio Properties under this Lease and the Other Leases be substituted over the Term of this Lease and the Other Leases, as the Term may be extended by one or more of the Renewal Terms under this Lease and the Other Lease, as applicable (provided, however, if Tenant’s request is revoked and Tenant pays all costs incurred by Landlord relating to such substitution request, then any such revoked request shall not count towards the foregoing limitation). In order to request any such substitution, Tenant shall submit a written request to Landlord, which request shall be accompanied with sufficient reasonable financial information demonstrating that the Demised Property in question is no longer economically feasible, which information shall include, with respect to such Demised Property, monthly profit and loss amounts for the twenty-four (24) month period prior to the date of the request and such other financial and business information as shall be reasonably requested by Landlord. In addition, Tenant shall identify one (1) proposed property for consideration by Landlord as the potential substitution for the Demised Property sought to be severed from this Lease. Each such substitute property proposed by Tenant shall be a convenience store with retail motor fuel sales and located within California, Nevada, Washington, Oregon or Colorado. Tenant shall provide Landlord with financial information regarding such proposed property, a current appraisal for such proposed property, together with such additional information as Landlord shall reasonably request in order for it to be provided with a full and complete understanding of the financial condition of the operations, physical condition and environmental condition of such proposed substitute property.
Upon receipt of Tenant’s request as set forth above in this Article 31, Landlord may elect one of the following options: (i) to sever the Demised Property that is no longer economically feasible from the Demised Properties demised pursuant to this Lease and accept the proposed substituted properties in its place without any adjustment in the Base Rent, (ii) to sever the Demised Property that is no longer economically feasible from the Demised Properties demised pursuant to this Lease and not accept the proposed substitute property in its place and to reduce the Base Rent by the amount equal to the product of the Demised Property FMV of such severed Demised Property multiplied by [***]1, or (iii) to require that Tenant purchase such Demised Property from Landlord at the Demised Property FMV of the Demised Property and to reduce the Base Rent by the amount equal to the product of the Demised Property FMV of such Demised Property multiplied by [***]1. Landlord agrees to notify Tenant of its election within 15 days after receiving all the information required to be delivered to Landlord by Tenant under this Article 31. Upon Landlord’s election as provided herein, then Landlord and Tenant shall promptly enter into an amendment of this Lease in order to document such agreement and revise Exhibit “A” accordingly, at the sole cost and expense (including without limitation Landlord’s reasonable

attorneys’ fees and expenses) of Tenant. Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the release of any such Demised Properties from any mortgage, lien, charge, encumbrance or other financing device encumbering such Demised Properties as may be required by Landlord’s lender and consent from Landlord’s lender for such substitution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 31, Tenant shall have the right to revoke any request to sever a Demised Property by giving written notice to Landlord at any time prior to the mutual execution of an amendment of this Lease consummating such severance, provided that Tenant pays all costs incurred by Landlord relating to such request.
The “Demised Property FMV” shall mean the then fair market value of a Demised Property for use as then currently being used (as if the Demised Property is unencumbered and free and clear of the existence of this Lease). In order to determine the Demised Property FMV of each Demised Property to be severed from the Demised Properties and/or purchased by Tenant for purposes of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, as applicable, of this Article 31 the following shall apply:
(a) Not later than thirty (30) days after Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord has elected to determine the Demised Property FMV of a Demised Property to be purchased by Tenant and/or severed from the Demised Properties, Landlord and Tenant shall each provide the other with the name of an independent real estate appraiser (“Landlord’s Consultant” and “Tenant’s Consultant”, as the case may be, and collectively, the “Consultants”), to act as Landlord’s representative and Tenant’s representative in order to determine the Demised Property-FMV of such Demised Property. Not later than thirty (30) days after the designation of Landlord’s Consultant and Tenant’s Consultant (each such consultant shall comply with the requirements of subsection (c) below), each such consultant shall determine the Demised Property FMV of each such Demised Property and shall circulate such determinations to the other party. If the Demised Property FMV determinations of the two consultants for any such Demised Property differ by ten percent (10%) or less, then the average of such determinations shall be the Demised Property FMV of such Demised Property. However, if the Demised Property FMV determinations of the two consultants for any such Demised Property differ by more than ten percent (10%), then Tenant’s Consultant and Landlord’s Consultant shall meet (in person or by telephone) to mutually agree upon the determination of the Demised Property FMV of such Demised Property within ten (10) days after such consultants circulate their determinations of the Demised Property FMV.
(b) If Landlord’s Consultant and Tenant’s Consultant shall be unable to reach such determination for such Demised Property within the time periods set forth in subsection (a) above, both of the Consultants shall each designate their final Demised Property FMV determinations for each such Demised Property, if they have changed from the initial determination, and shall jointly select a third independent real estate appraiser (“Third Consultant”), whose fee shall be borne by Tenant. In the event that Landlord’s Consultant and Tenant’s Consultant shall be unable to jointly agree on the designation of Third Consultant within five (5) days after they are requested to do so by either party, then the parties agree to allow the American Arbitration Association or any successor organization to designate Third Consultant in accordance with the rules, regulations and/or procedures of the American Arbitration Association or any successor organization then in effect.
(c) Third Consultant shall conduct such hearings and investigations as Third Consultant may deem appropriate and shall, within thirty (30) days after the date of designation of Third Consultant, prepare an independent determination of the value of the Demised Property being purchased and/or severed. The final Demised Property FMV determination of each such Demised Property shall be the average of the two valuations of Landlord’s Consultant, Tenant’s Consultant and Third Consultant which

Tenant shall pay all counsel fees and expenses, if any, in connection with any arbitration under this subsection, including the expenses and fees of any Consultant selected by it in accordance with the provisions hereof. Landlord’s Consultant, Tenant’s Consultant, Third Consultant and any other consultant appointed pursuant to this Article 31 shall be an independent real estate appraiser with at least ten years’ experience in leasing and valuation of properties which are similar in character to the Demised Properties, and an MAI member of the Appraisers Institute, and shall not have any personal or business relationship with either Landlord or Tenant which might be, or have the appearance of, a conflict of interest. Landlord’s Consultant, Tenant’s Consultant, and Third Consultant shall not have the power to add to, modify or change any of the provisions of this Lease.

The Recognition Agreement is intended to run with the Demised Properties the same as if the terms of the Recognition Agreement were set forth in full in this Lease (until the Recognition Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms), and any successor, assignee or transferee of Landlord’s interest in this Lease, including any partial assignment of this Lease effected under Section 30.01 of this Lease, shall be deemed to have knowledge of and to assume and take subject, as applicable, to the respective rights, duties and obligations of Landlord and PSX under the Recognition Agreement. This Article may not be amended without the express consent of PSX, and any attempted amendment without such consent shall be void.

Section 40.02 Eminent Domain. The provisions of this Lease, including those in Article 12, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant that applies in the event there is any taking of any part of the Demised Property for any public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain or by purchase in lieu thereof (collectively, “Condemnation”).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Lease, Successor Landlord’s obligations and liability under the Lease shall never extend beyond Successor landlord’s (or its successors’ or assigns’) interest, if any, in the Property from time to time, including without limitation insurance and condemnation proceeds, security deposits, escrows, Successor Landlord’s interest in the Lease, and the proceeds from any sale, lease or other disposition of the Property (or any portion thereof) by Successor Landlord (collectively, the “Successor Landlord’s Interest”). Tenant shall look exclusively to Successor Landlord’s Interest (or that of its successors and assigns) for payment or discharge of any obligations of Successor Landlord under the Lease as affected by this Agreement. If Tenant obtains any money judgment against Successor Landlord with respect to the Lease or the relationship between Successor Landlord and Tenant, then Tenant shall look solely to Successor Landlord’s Interest (or that of its successors and assigns) to collect such judgment. Tenant shall not collect or attempt to collect any such judgment out of any other assets of Successor Landlord. Nothing set forth in this paragraph shall be construed to limit Tenant’s equitable remedies, including specific performance and injunctive relief.
6. Casualty and Condemnation. Mortgagee agrees that, notwithstanding any provision of the Mortgage or any instrument secured by the Mortgage, any insurance proceeds and any condemnation awards which may be received by any party hereto and which relate to the Property shall be used or disbursed in accordance with the terms of the Lease.
7. Mortgagee’s Right to Cure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease or this Agreement, before exercising any Offset Right or Termination Right:
a. Notice to Mortgagee. Tenant shall provide Mortgagee with notice of the breach or default by Landlord giving rise to same (the “Default Notice”) and, thereafter, the opportunity to cure such breach or default as provided for below.
b. Mortgagee’s Cure Period. After Mortgagee receives a Default Notice, Mortgagee shall have a period of thirty (30) days under the Lease in which to cure the breach or default by Landlord. Mortgagee shall have no obligation to cure (and, without limiting anything contained in Section 4(a) above, shall have no liability or obligation for not curing) any breach or default by Landlord, except to the extent that Mortgagee agrees or undertakes otherwise in writing. In addition, as to any breach or default by Landlord the cure of which requires possession and control of the Property, if Mortgagee undertakes such cure or causes such cure to be commenced by a receiver within the period permitted by this paragraph, and so long as Mortgagee continues to or causes a receiver to diligently and in good faith cure such breach or default, Mortgagee’s cure period shall continue for such additional time (but in any event not to exceed 90 days in the aggregate) as Mortgagee may reasonably require to either (i) obtain possession and control of the Property with due diligence and thereafter cure the breach or default with reasonable diligence and continuity; or (ii) obtain the appointment of a receiver and give such receiver a reasonable period of time in which to cure the default. Nothing set forth in this paragraph shall limit Tenant’s offset rights or rights to cure a breach or default and receive any reimbursement to which it is entitled under the Lease.
