Lessee shall continue to pay all Rental and other Monetary Obligations by Automated Clearing House Debit unless otherwise directed by Lessor.

Section 4.06. Late Charges; Default Interest.

provided in this Lease; (iii) Lessee shall procure policies for all insurance for periods of not less than one year and shall provide to Lessor and any servicer or Lender of Lessor certificates of insurance or, upon Lessor’s request, duplicate originals of insurance policies evidencing that insurance satisfying the requirements of this Lease is in effect at all times; (iv) Lessee shall pay as they become due all premiums for the insurance required by this Section 6.03; and (v) in the event that Lessee fails to comply with any of the requirements set forth in this Section 6.03, within ten (10) days of the giving of written notice by Lessor to Lessee, (A) Lessor shall be entitled to procure such insurance; and (B) any sums expended by Lessor in procuring such insurance shall be Additional Rental and shall be repaid by Lessee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, from the time of payment by Lessor until fully paid by Lessee immediately upon written demand therefor by Lessor.

(d) Blanket Policies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.03, any insurance which Lessee is required to obtain pursuant to this Section 6.03 may be carried under a “blanket” policy or policies covering other properties or liabilities of Lessee provided that such “blanket” policy or policies otherwise comply with the provisions of this Section 6.03.

Section 6.04. Environmental Insurance Policy. Throughout the Term, Lessee shall maintain, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, the Environmental Insurance Policy. Lessor acknowledges and agrees that (i) Lessor shall not amend or terminate the Environmental Insurance Policy without the prior written consent of Lessee; and (ii) this Lease shall be referenced as an “insured contract” under the Environmental Insurance Policy. Lessor acknowledges that Lessee is the owner of the Existing Environmental Insurance Policy and is entitled to receive any refund of deposits made with respect to the Existing Environmental Insurance Policy. Additionally, Lessee shall be entitled to receive any refund of deposits made by Lessee with respect to the Environmental Insurance Policy.

Section 6.05. Tax and Insurance Impound. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and with respect to each Event of Default, in addition to any other remedies, Lessor may require Lessee to pay to Lessor on the first day of each month the amount that Lessor reasonably estimates will be necessary in order to accumulate with Lessor sufficient funds in an impound account (which shall not be deemed a trust fund) (the “Reserve”) for Lessor to pay any and all real estate taxes (“Real Estate Taxes”) and insurance premiums (“Insurance Premiums”) for the Property for the ensuing twelve (12) months, or, if due sooner, Lessee shall pay the required amount immediately upon Lessor’s demand therefor. Lessor shall, upon prior written request of Lessee, provide Lessee with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lessee that payment of the Real Estate Taxes and Insurance Premiums was made in a timely fashion. In the event that the Reserve does not contain sufficient funds to timely pay any Real Estate Taxes or Insurance Premiums, upon Lessor’s written notification thereof, Lessee shall, within five (5) Business Days of such notice, provide funds to Lessor in the amount of such deficiency. Lessor shall pay or cause to be paid directly to the applicable taxing authorities and insurance company, as the case may be, any Real Estate Taxes and Insurance Premiums then due and payable for which there are funds in the Reserve; provided, however, that in no event shall Lessor be obligated to pay any Real Estate Taxes or Insurance Premiums in excess of the funds held in the Reserve, and Lessee shall remain liable for any and all Real Estate Taxes, including fines, penalties, interest or additional costs imposed by any taxing authority (unless incurred as a result of Lessor’s failure to timely pay Real Estate Taxes for which it had funds in

the Reserve) and Insurance Premiums. Lessee shall cooperate fully with Lessor in assuring that the Real Estate Taxes and Insurance Premiums are timely paid. Lessor may deposit all Reserve funds in accounts insured by any federal or state agency and may commingle such funds with other funds and accounts of Lessor. Interest or other gains from such funds, if any, shall be the sole property of Lessor. Upon an Event of Default, in addition to any other remedies, Lessor may apply all impounded funds in the Reserve against any sums due from Lessee to Lessor. Lessor shall give to Lessee an annual accounting showing all credits and debits to and from such impounded funds received from Lessee.

Except during periods when a Property is untenantable due to Casualty or Condemnation (and provided that Lessee continues to strictly comply with the other terms and conditions of this Lease), Lessee shall at all times during the Lease Term occupy the Property and shall diligently operate its business on the Property.

Section 8.02. Alternative Use. Lessee shall not, by itself or through any assignment, sublease or other type of transfer, convert the Property to an alternative use during the Lease Term without Lessor’s prior written consent. In the event that Lessee shall change the concept or brand of the Permitted Facility operated on the Property, only as may be expressly permitted herein or consented to by Lessor in writing, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Lessee shall provide Lessor with written notice of any such change and a full explanation of such new concept or brand, if any. In the event Lessee wishes to change the concept or brand of the operations on the Property such that they would no longer be a Permitted Facility, then Lessee must obtain the written consent of Lessor in advance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 8.03. Compliance. Lessee’s use and occupation of the Property, and the condition thereof, shall, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, comply fully with all Legal Requirements and all restrictions, covenants and encumbrances of record, and any owner obligations under such Legal Requirements, or restrictions, covenants and encumbrances of record, with respect to the Property, in either event, the failure with which to comply could have a Material Adverse Effect. Without in any way limiting the foregoing provisions, Lessee shall comply with all Legal Requirements relating to anti-terrorism, trade embargos, economic sanctions, Anti-Money Laundering Laws, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as such act may be amended from time to time, and all regulations promulgated thereunder, as it affects the Property now or hereafter in effect. Upon Lessor’s written request from time to time during the Lease Term, Lessee shall certify in writing to Lessor that Lessee’s representations,

warranties and obligations under Section 5.08 and this Section 8.03 remain true and correct and have not been breached. Lessee shall immediately notify Lessor in writing if any of such representations, warranties or covenants are no longer true or have been breached or if Lessee has a reasonable basis to believe that they may no longer be true or have been breached. In connection with such an event, Lessee shall comply with all Legal Requirements and directives of Governmental Authorities that are not subject to further appeal or review and, at Lessor’s request, provide to Lessor copies of all notices, reports and other communications exchanged with, or received from, Governmental Authorities relating to such an event. Lessee shall also reimburse Lessor for all Costs reasonably incurred by Lessor in evaluating the effect of such an event on the Property and this Lease, in obtaining any necessary license from Governmental Authorities as may be necessary by reason of such an event for Lessor to enforce its rights under the Transaction Documents, and in complying with all Legal Requirements applicable to Lessor as the result of the existence of such an event and for any penalties or fines imposed upon Lessor as a result thereof. Lessee will use its best efforts to prevent any act or condition to exist on or about the Property which will materially increase any insurance rate thereon, except when such acts are required in the normal course of its business and Lessee shall pay for such increase. Lessee agrees that it will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses caused by, incurred or resulting from Lessee’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Section.

action deemed necessary by any Governmental Authority for protection of human health or the environment; provided the required Remediation or other action is not subject to further appeal or review. Should Lessee fail to undertake any required Remediation in accordance with the preceding sentence, Lessor, after written notice to Lessee and Lessee’s failure to immediately undertake such Remediation, shall be permitted to complete such Remediation, and all Costs incurred in connection therewith shall be paid by Lessee. Any Cost 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.

Without violating the requirements of any Governmental Authority that Lessee maintain “secure areas” within the Permitted Facility, Lessor and any other Person designated by Lessor, including but not limited to any receiver, any representative of a Governmental Authority, and any environmental consultant, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter upon the Property at all reasonable times and in a manner that avoids any material disruption of Lessee’s business (including, without limitation, in connection with the exercise of any remedies set forth in this Lease) to assess any and all aspects of the environmental condition of the Property and its use, including but not limited to conducting any environmental assessment or audit (the scope of which shall be determined in Lessor’s sole and absolute discretion) and taking samples of soil, groundwater or other water, air, or building materials, and conducting other invasive testing. Lessee shall cooperate with and provide reasonable access to Lessor and any other Person designated by Lessor in a manner that avoids any material disruption of Lessee’s business. Any reasonable assessment or investigation made for Good Cause shall be at Lessee’s sole cost and expense.

(g) Inspections. Without violating the requirements of any Governmental Authority that Lessee maintain “secure areas” within the Permitted Facility, at its sole cost and expense, Lessee shall have the Property inspected as may be required by any Environmental Law for seepage, spillage and other environmental concerns. Lessee shall maintain and monitor all above and below ground storage tanks in accordance with all Environmental Laws. Lessee shall provide Lessor with written certified results of all inspections performed on the Property.

Upon any such Release from any USTs on, above or under the Property of any Hazardous Materials or Regulated Substances, Lessee shall immediately remedy such situation in accordance with all Environmental Laws and any request of Lessor. Should Lessee fail to remedy or cause the remedy of such situation in accordance with all Environmental Laws, Lessor shall be permitted to take actions in its reasonable discretion to remedy such situation and all reasonable Costs incurred in connection therewith, together with interest at the Default Rate, will be paid by Lessee.

RELEASE AND INDEMNIFICATION

Section 10.01. Release and Indemnification of Lessor. Lessee agrees to use and occupy the Property at its own risk and hereby releases Lessor and Lessor’s agents and employees from all claims for any damage or injury to Lessee, its agents, employees, customers, licensees or invitees the full extent permitted by Law, excluding only Losses subject to Lessor’s Indemnification. Lessee agrees that Lessor shall not be responsible or liable to Lessee or Lessee’s employees, agents, customers, licensees or invitees for bodily injury, personal injury or property damage occasioned by the acts or omissions of any other lessee or any other Person, excluding only Losses subject to Lessor’s Indemnification. Lessee shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless each of the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses caused by, incurred or resulting from Lessee’s operations or by Lessee’s use and occupancy of the Property, whether relating to its original design or construction, latent defects, alteration, maintenance, use by Lessee or any Person thereon, supervision or otherwise, or from any breach of, default under, or failure to perform, any term or provision of this Lease by Lessee, its officers, employees, agents or other Persons, but excluding Losses

For purposes of this Article, the term “gross negligence” shall not include gross negligence imputed as a matter of Law to any of the Indemnified Parties solely by reason of Lessor’s interest in the Property and no breach of this Lease shall be deemed to arise solely from Lessor’s failure to act in respect of matters which are or were the obligation of Lessee under this Lease.

ARTICLE XI

CONDEMNATION AND CASUALTY

Section 11.01. Notification. Lessee shall promptly give Lessor written notice of (a) any Condemnation of the Property, (b) the commencement of any proceedings or negotiations which might result in a Condemnation of the Property, and (c) any Casualty to the Property or any part thereof. Such notice shall provide a general description of the nature and extent of such Condemnation, proceedings, negotiations or Casualty, and shall include copies of any documents or notices received in connection therewith. Thereafter, Lessee shall promptly send Lessor copies of all notices, correspondence and pleadings relating to any such Condemnation, proceedings, negotiations or Casualty.

Section 11.02. Total Condemnation. In the event of a Condemnation of all or substantially all of the Property, including a Condemnation (other than a Temporary Taking) of such a substantial part of the Property resulting in the portion of the Property remaining after such Condemnation being unsuitable for use as a Permitted Facility, as determined by Lessee in the exercise of good faith business judgment (and Lessee provides to Lessor an officer’s certificate executed by an officer of Lessee certifying to the same) (each such event, a “Total Condemnation”), then, in such event:

(a) Termination of Lease. On the date of the Total Condemnation, all obligations of either party hereunder shall cease; provided, however, that Lessee’s obligations to the Indemnified Parties under any indemnification provisions of this Lease and Lessee’s obligation to pay Rental and all other Monetary Obligations (whether payable to Lessor or a third party) accruing under this Lease prior to the date of termination shall survive such termination. If the date of such Total Condemnation is other than the first day of a month, the Base Monthly Rental for the month in which such Total Condemnation occurs shall be apportioned based on the date of the Total Condemnation.

(b) Net Award. Lessor shall be entitled to receive the entire Net Award in connection with a Total Condemnation without deduction for any estate vested in Lessee by this Lease, and Lessee hereby expressly assigns to Lessor all of its right, title and interest in and to every such Net Award and agrees that Lessee shall not be entitled to any Net Award or other payment for the value of Lessee’s leasehold interest in this Lease.

Section 11.03. Partial Condemnation or Casualty. In the event of a Condemnation which is not a Total Condemnation (each such event, a “Partial Condemnation”), or in the event of a Casualty:

(a) Net Awards. All Net Awards shall be paid to Lessor.

(b) Lessor Election To Continue or Terminate Lease. Lessor shall have the option, (i) subject to the right of Lessee to elect otherwise as set forth in subsection (c) below, to terminate this Lease by notifying Lessee in writing within thirty (30) days after Lessee gives Lessor notice (A) of such Partial Condemnation or Casualty, or (B) that title has vested in the condemning authority; or (ii) to continue this Lease in effect, which election shall be evidenced by either a notice from Lessor to Lessee, or Lessor’s failure to notify Lessee in writing that Lessor has elected to terminate this Lease within such thirty (30)-day period. Lessee shall have a period of sixty (60) days after receipt of Lessor’s notice to terminate referenced above during which to elect, despite such Lessor notice of termination, to continue this Lease on the terms herein provided.

(c) Continuance of Lease. If Lessor elects not to terminate this Lease, but Lessee elects to continue this Lease, then this Lease shall continue in full force and effect upon the following terms:

(i) All Rental and other Monetary Obligations due under this Lease shall continue unabated.

(ii) Lessee shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute restoration of the Property to the same condition, as nearly as practicable, as prior to such Partial Condemnation or Casualty as approved by Lessor. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Mortgages and upon the written request of Lessee (accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lessor that such amount has been paid or is due and payable and is properly part of such costs, and that Lessee has complied with the terms of Section 7.02 in connection with the restoration), Lessor shall promptly make available and pay to Lessee in installments, subject to reasonable conditions for disbursement imposed by Lessor, an amount up to but not exceeding the amount of any Net Award received by Lessor with respect to such Partial Condemnation or Casualty. Prior to the disbursement of any portion of the Net Award with respect to a Casualty, Lessee shall provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lessor of the payment of restoration expenses by Lessee up to the amount of the insurance deductible applicable to such Casualty. Lessor shall be entitled to keep any portion of the Net Award which may be in excess of the cost of restoration, and Lessee shall bear all additional Costs of such restoration in excess of the Net Award.

(d) No Continuance of Lease. If Lessor elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to Subsection (b) above and if Lessee does not elect to continue this Lease or shall fail during such sixty (60) day period to notify Lessor of Lessee’s intent to continue this Lease, then this Lease shall terminate as of the last day of the month during which such sixty (60) day period expired. Lessee shall vacate and surrender the Property by such termination date, in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, and on the termination date, all obligations of either party hereunder shall cease; provided, however, Lessee’s obligations to the Indemnified Parties under any indemnification provisions of this Lease and Lessee’s obligations to pay Rental and all other Monetary Obligations (whether payable to Lessor or a third party) accruing under this Lease prior to the date of termination shall survive such termination. In such event, Lessor may retain all Net Awards related to the Partial Condemnation or Casualty, and Lessee shall immediately pay Lessor an amount equal to the insurance deductible applicable to any Casualty.

Section 11.04. Temporary Taking. In the event of a Condemnation of all or any part of the Property for a temporary use (a “Temporary Taking”), this Lease shall remain in full force and effect without any reduction of Base Annual Rental, Additional Rental or any other Monetary Obligation payable hereunder. 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 the Property.

Section 11.05. Adjustment of Losses. Any loss under any property damage insurance required to be maintained by Lessee shall be adjusted by Lessor and Lessee. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Mortgages, any Net Award relating to a Total Condemnation or a Partial Condemnation shall be adjusted by Lessor or, at Lessor’s election, Lessee. 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 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).

Section 11.07. Lessee Awards and Payments. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Article XI, Lessee shall be entitled to claim and receive any award or payment from the condemning authority expressly granted for the taking of any personal property owned by Lessee, any insurance proceeds with respect to any personal property owned by Lessee, the interruption of its business and moving expenses (subject, however, to the provisions of Section 6.03(a)(iv) above), but only if such claim or award does not adversely affect or interfere with the prosecution of Lessor’s claim for the Condemnation or Casualty, or otherwise reduce the amount recoverable by Lessor for the Condemnation or Casualty.

ARTICLE XII

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;

(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 the Property;

(d) if there is an Insolvency Event affecting Lessee;

(e) if Lessee vacates or abandons the Property;

(f) if Lessee fails to observe or perform any of the other covenants, conditions or obligations of Lessee in this Lease; provided, however, if any such failure does not involve the payment of any Monetary Obligation, does not place the Property or any rights or property of Lessor in immediate jeopardy, and is within the reasonable power of Lessee to promptly cure, 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, 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, or which does not have a Material Adverse Effect but which is in the amount of $250,000.00 or more, and in either event is not discharged or provision made for such discharge within ninety (90) days from the date of entry thereof;

(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 the Property 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 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 Property 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 Property (or any part thereof), any or all personal property or fixtures of Lessee upon the Property and, to the extent permissible, all permits and other rights or privileges of Lessee pertaining to the use and operation of the Property excluding franchise rights, 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 Property to Lessor, deliver to Lessor or its agents the keys to the Property, 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 Property 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 Property 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 reasonable 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 Property or any part thereof and shall in no event be liable for refusal or failure to relet the Property 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) Lessor may terminate this Lease without any right of Lessee to reinstate Lessee’s rights by payment of any rentals due under this Lease, including Base Annual Rental and Additional Rental, or other performance of the terms and conditions of this Lease, whereupon Lessee’s right to possession of the Property shall cease (and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Property to Lessor) and this Lease, except as to Lessee’s liability, shall be terminated. Lessee expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under present or future law if this Lease is terminated or if Lessee is evicted or dispossessed by reason of any breach by Lessee of the provisions of this Lease. Upon any termination of this Lease, or upon demand without termination, at Lessor’s sole discretion, Lessor may recover from Lessee the following:

(i) All unpaid Rental scheduled to be paid prior to the effective date of the Event of Default; and

(ii) Lessor may accelerate all Rental due from the date of such Event of Default through the end of the Lease Term. Such “Accelerated Rent” shall be deemed liquidated damages hereunder, as Lessor’s injury caused by such Event of Default is difficult or impossible to estimate accurately; the parties intend for this “Accelerated Rent” to provide for damages rather than a penalty; and such “Accelerated Rent” is a reasonable pre-estimate of Lessor’s probable loss in the event of such Event of Default. Such “Accelerated Rent” amount shall be reduced by the fair market rental amount Lessor reasonably expects to receive if the Property were relet for the time period to which the “Accelerated Rent” applies, which “Accelerated Rent” amount as so adjusted shall be discounted at a rate equal to the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York at the time of such “Accelerated Rent” determination, plus 1%; and

(iii) Lessor shall be entitled to any other amounts reasonably necessary to compensate Lessor for all loss, damage and detriment approximately caused by such Event of Default, including without limitation, all court costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees;

(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 Property, 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 Property 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.

Section 12.05. Proceedings. In any action of ejectment and/or for Rental, Lessor shall first cause to be filed in such action an affidavit made by it or someone acting for it, setting forth the facts necessary to authorize the entry of judgment, and, if a true copy of this Lease (and of the truth of the copy such affidavit shall be sufficient evidence) be filed in such action, it shall not be necessary to file the original as a warrant of attorney, any rule of Court, custom or practice to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 12.06. Waiver of Notice to Quit. Lessee agrees to give up certain legal rights as provided by the Landlord and Tenant Act of 1951, as amended, 68 P.S. § 250.101, et seq., including, but not limited to the ten (10) or thirty (30) day notice period which is contained in § 501 thereof, or any other notice period established by applicable Pennsylvania law. No notice will be required to be given by Lessor to Lessee to leave and give up the Properties. Lessee will be asked to leave the Properties without notice under any of the following conditions:

(a) Lessee does not leave any Property at the end of the Lease Term.

(b) Lessee fails, within 10 days of demand, to make all Rental payments and other payments when due.

ARTICLE XIII

MORTGAGE, SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT

Section 13.01. No Liens. Lessor’s interest in this Lease and/or the Property shall not be subordinate to any liens or encumbrances placed upon the Property 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 PROPERTY 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 the Property 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 Property 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. 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 the Property, 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 such additional reasonable instruments as 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 the Property 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.

ARTICLE XIV

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 Property, 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 or limit the Lessee’s rights 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 provided such purchaser or assignee assumes in writing all such obligations of Lessor hereunder.

Section 14.02. No Assignment by Lessee. 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 Property 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 which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 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 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.

Section 14.03. No Sale of Assets. Without the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, Lessee shall not sell all or substantially all of Lessee’s assets. Any sale of Lessee’s assets in violation of this Section 14.03, 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 14.04. No Subletting. Lessee shall not sublet the Property without the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld by Lessor and any such purported subletting without Lessor’s consent shall be void.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 17.01. Force Majeure. Any prevention, delay or stoppage due to strikes, lockouts, acts of God, enemy or hostile governmental action, civil commotion, fire or other casualty beyond the control of the party obligated to perform (each, a “Force Majeure Event”) shall excuse the performance by such party for a period equal to any such prevention, delay or stoppage, expressly excluding, however, the obligations imposed upon Lessee with respect to Rental and other Monetary Obligations to be paid hereunder.

Section 17.02. No Merger. There shall be no merger of this Lease nor of the leasehold estate created by this Lease with the fee estate in or ownership of the Property by reason of the fact that the same person, corporation, firm or other entity may acquire or hold or own, directly or indirectly, (a) this Lease or the leasehold estate created by this Lease or any interest in this Lease or in such leasehold estate, and (b) the fee estate or ownership of the Property or any interest in such fee estate or ownership. No such merger shall occur unless and until all persons, corporations, firms and other entities having any interest in (i) this Lease or the leasehold estate created by this Lease, and (ii) the fee estate in or ownership of the Property or any part thereof sought to be merged shall join in a written instrument effecting such merger and shall duly record the same.

Section 17.03. Interpretation. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge and warrant to each other that each has been represented by independent counsel and has executed this Lease after being fully advised by said counsel as to its effect and significance. This Lease shall be interpreted and construed in a fair and impartial manner without regard to such factors as the party which prepared the instrument, the relative bargaining powers of the parties or the domicile of any party. Whenever in this Lease any words of obligation or duty are used, such words or expressions shall have the same force and effect as though made in the form of a covenant.

Section 17.04. Characterization. The following expressions of intent, representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, stipulations and waivers are a material inducement to Lessor entering into this Lease:

(a) Lessor and Lessee intend that (i) this Lease constitutes an unseverable, unitary and single lease of all, but not less than all, of the Property, and, if at any time this Lease covers other real property in addition to the Property, neither this Lease, nor Lessee’s obligations or rights hereunder may be allocated or otherwise divided among such properties by Lessee; (ii) this Lease is a “true lease,” is not a financing lease, capital lease, mortgage, equitable mortgage, deed of trust, trust agreement, security agreement or other financing or trust arrangement, and the economic realities of this Lease are those of a true lease; and (iii) the business relationship created by this Lease and any related documents is solely that of a long-term commercial lease between Lessor and Lessee, the Lease has been entered into by both parties in reliance upon the economic and legal bargains contained herein, and none of the agreements contained herein is intended, nor shall the same be deemed or construed, to create a partnership (de facto or de jure) between Lessor and Lessee, to make them joint venturers, to make Lessee an agent, legal representative, partner, subsidiary or employee of Lessor, nor to make Lessor in any way responsible for the debts, obligations or losses of Lessee.

(b) Lessor and Lessee covenant and agree that: (i) each will treat this Lease as an operating lease pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, as amended, and as a true lease for state Law reporting purposes and for federal income tax purposes; (ii) each party will not, nor will it permit any Affiliate to, at any time, take any action or fail to take any action with respect to the preparation or filing of any

statement or disclosure to Governmental Authority, including without limitation, any income tax return (including an amended income tax return), to the extent that such action or such failure to take action would be inconsistent with the intention of the parties expressed in this Section 17.04; (iii) with respect to the Property, the Lease Term (including any Extension Term) is less than eighty percent (80%) of the estimated remaining economic life of the Property; and (iv) the Base Annual Rental is the fair market value for the use of the Property and was agreed to by Lessor and Lessee on that basis, and the execution and delivery of, and the performance by Lessee of its obligations under, this Lease do not constitute a transfer of all or any part of the Property.

(c) Lessee waives any claim or defense based upon the characterization of this Lease as anything other than a true lease and as a lease of the Property. Lessee stipulates and agrees (i) not to challenge the validity, enforceability or characterization of the lease of the Property 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 Property; 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.

Section 17.05. Disclosures.

(a) Securities Act or Exchange Act. The parties agree that, notwithstanding any provision contained in this Lease, any party (and each employee, representative or other agent of any party) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, any matter required under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

(b) Lessor Advertising and related Publications. Lessee hereby consents to the use by Lessor of, and Lessor is hereby expressly permitted to use, Lessee’s name, trademarks, logos, pictures of stores and signage, and basic Transaction information (collectively “Lessee’s Information”) solely to provide information in connection with Lessor’s sales, advertising, and press release materials, including on Lessor’s website. Lessee’s consent shall be deemed authorization for the limited use of Lessee’s Information by Lessor under all applicable copyright and trademark laws. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing or in Section 17.10 to the contrary, Lessee shall not be required to disclose to Lessor for any such purposes, and Lessor shall not be permitted to disclose to any Person, any trade secrets or any other confidential or proprietary information of Lessee.

Section 17.06. Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any judicial or other adversarial proceeding concerning this Lease, to the extent permitted by Law, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all of its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other Costs in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled. In addition, Lessor shall, upon demand, be entitled to all attorneys’ fees and all other Costs incurred in the preparation and service of any notice or demand given hereunder, in connection with any of Lessee’s obligations and liabilities, whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced except that no such recovery shall be permitted if there is a subsequent legal action regarding the subject matter of the notice and Lessee is the prevailing party.

Section 17.07. Memoranda of Lease. Concurrently with the execution of this Lease, Lessor and Lessee are executing Lessor’s standard form memorandum of lease in recordable form, indicating the names and addresses of Lessor and Lessee, a description of the Property, the Lease Term, but omitting Rentals and such other terms of this Lease as Lessor may not desire to disclose to the public. Further, upon Lessor’s request, Lessee agrees to execute and acknowledge a termination of lease and/or quitclaim deed in recordable form to be held by Lessor until the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term; provided, however, if Lessee shall fail or refuse to sign such a document in accordance with the provisions of this Section within ten (10) days following a request by Lessor, Lessee irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lessor as its attorney-in-fact to execute and record such document, it being stipulated that such power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable and binding.

Section 17.08. No Brokerage. Lessor and Lessee represent and warrant to each other that they have had no conversation or negotiations with any broker concerning the leasing of the Property. Each of Lessor and Lessee agrees to protect, indemnify, save and keep harmless the other, against and from all liabilities, claims, losses, Costs, damages and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of, resulting from or in connection with their breach of the foregoing warranty and representation.

Section 17.09. Waiver of Jury Trial and Certain Damages. LESSOR AND LESSEE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL ISSUES PRESENTED IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGAINST THE OTHER OR ITS SUCCESSORS WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE, THE RELATIONSHIP OF LESSOR AND LESSEE, LESSEE’S USE OR OCCUPANCY OF THE PROPERTY, AND/OR ANY CLAIM FOR INJURY OR DAMAGE, OR ANY EMERGENCY OR STATUTORY REMEDY. THIS WAIVER BY THE PARTIES HERETO OF ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED AND IS AN ESSENTIAL ASPECT OF THEIR BARGAIN. FURTHERMORE, LESSOR AND LESSEE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO SEEK PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL AND INDIRECT DAMAGES FROM LESSOR AND ANY OF THE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS OR EMPLOYEES OF LESSOR OR LESSEE OR ANY OF THEIR SUCCESSORS WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL ISSUES PRESENTED IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE OR ANY DOCUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR RELATED HERETO. THE WAIVER BY LESSOR AND LESSEE OF ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO SEEK PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL AND INDIRECT DAMAGES HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED BY THE PARTIES HERETO AND IS AN ESSENTIAL ASPECT OF THEIR BARGAIN.

Section 17.10. Securitizations. As a material inducement to Lessor’s willingness to enter into the Transactions contemplated by this Lease and the other Transaction Documents, Lessee hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lessor may, from time to time and at any time (a) advertise, issue press releases, send direct mail or otherwise disclose information regarding the Transaction for marketing purposes; and (b) (i) act or permit another Person to act as sponsor, settler, transferor or depositor of, or a holder of interests in, one or more Persons or other arrangements formed pursuant to a trust agreement, indenture, pooling agreement,

participation agreement, sale and servicing agreement, limited liability company agreement, partnership agreement, articles of incorporation or similar agreement or document; and (ii) permit one or more of such Persons or arrangements to offer and sell stock, certificates, bonds, notes, other evidences of indebtedness or securities that are directly or indirectly secured, collateralized or otherwise backed by or represent a direct or indirect interest in whole or in part in any of the assets, rights or properties described in Section 14.01 of this Lease, in one or more Persons or arrangements holding such assets, rights or properties, or any of them (collectively, the “Securities”), whether any such Securities are privately or publicly offered and sold, or rated or unrated (any combination of which actions and transactions described in both clauses (i) and (ii) in this paragraph, whether proposed or completed, are referred to in this Lease as a “Securitization”). Lessee shall cooperate fully with Lessor and any Affected Party with respect to all reasonable requests and due diligence procedures and use reasonable efforts to facilitate such Securitization.

Section 17.11. State-Specific Provisions. The provisions and/or remedies which are set forth on the attached Exhibit D shall be deemed a part of and included within the terms and conditions of this Lease.

Section 17.12. Time Is of the Essence; Computation. Time is of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Lease. If any deadline provided herein falls on a non-Business Day, such deadline shall be extended to the next day that is a Business Day.

Section 17.13. Waiver and Amendment. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed waived or amended except by a written instrument setting forth the matter waived or amended and signed by the party against which enforcement of such waiver or amendment is sought. Waiver of any matter shall not be deemed a waiver of the same or any other matter on any future occasion. No acceptance by Lessor of an amount less than the Rental and other Monetary Obligations stipulated to be due under this Lease shall be deemed to be other than a payment on account of the earliest such Rental or other Monetary Obligations then due or in arrears nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or letter accompanying any such payment be deemed a waiver of Lessor’s right to collect any unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction.

Section 17.14. Successors Bound. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Lease shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns of each of the parties hereto.
