EXHIBIT 10.7.8
SEVENTH AMENDMENT TO GUARANTY
This Seventh Amendment to Guaranty (this "Guaranty Amendment"), dated as
of April 30, 2005, is made by and between Brookdale Living Communities, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (together with any entity succeeding thereto by
consolidation, merger or acquisition of its assets substantially as an entirety,
"Guarantor"), Ventas Realty, Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership
("Initial Beneficiary"), Ventas Kansas City I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company ("VKC"), Ventas Belleville, LLC ("VB"), Ventas Springfield/Findlay, LLC
("VSF"), and Ventas Farmington Hills, LLC ("VFH", and, together with Initial
Beneficiary, VKC, VB, and VSF, collectively, the "Beneficiaries").
Guarantor executed that certain Guaranty of Lease in favor of Initial
Beneficiary dated as of January 28, 2004 (the "Original Guaranty"), as amended
by that certain First Amendment to Guaranty dated as of February 20, 2004
between Guarantor and Initial Beneficiary (the "First Amendment"), that certain
Second Amendment to Guaranty dated as of February 26, 2004 between Guarantor and
Initial Beneficiary (the "Second Amendment"), that certain Third Amendment to
Guaranty dated as of March 10, 2004 among Guarantor, Initial Beneficiary and VKC
(the "Third Amendment"), that certain Fourth Amendment to Guaranty dated as of
March 30, 2004 among Guarantor, Initial Beneficiary, VB, VSF, and VKC (the
"Fourth Amendment"), that certain Fifth Amendment to Guaranty dated as of May
13, 2004 among Guarantor and the Beneficiaries (the "Fifth Amendment"), and that
certain Sixth Amendment to Guaranty dated as of June 18, 2004 among Guarantor
and the Beneficiaries (the "Sixth Amendment, and, together with the Original
Guaranty, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Third Amendment, the
Fourth Amendment, and the Fifth Amendment, the "Guaranty"). The real property
previously owned by VB and VSF has been conveyed in fee simple to Initial
Beneficiary. The Leases to which such properties were subject are being
terminated, and such properties are being added to the Lease pursuant to which
Initial Beneficiary is landlord, simultaneously herewith. Accordingly, the
parties hereto wish to amend the Guaranty to reflect such transactions.
Initially capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning
ascribed to such term in the Guaranty.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of $10 and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
Guarantor, intending to be legally bound, covenants and agrees with the
Beneficiaries as follows:
1. Certain Amendments. Schedule B to the Guaranty is hereby deleted
in its entirety and replaced with Schedule B attached hereto. From and after the
date hereof, the Guaranty is (a) for the benefit of all of the Landlords
identified on Schedule B to the Guaranty, as amended hereby, and Ventas, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (only to the extent Ventas, Inc. is liable pursuant to any
guaranty made by Ventas, Inc. in connection with a mortgage loan related to any
Property assumed by a Landlord in connection with the acquisition of such
Property) and (b) applicable to (i) all of the Properties identified on Exhibit
A to the Guaranty and (ii) all of the Tenants and Leases identified on Schedule
B to the Guaranty, as amended hereby.
2. Full Force and Effect. All other terms, conditions and covenants
contained in the Guaranty remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
Guarantor confirms and ratifies the terms and provisions of the Guaranty and
agrees that the Guaranty remains in full
force and effect as of the date hereof, and nothing contained in this Guaranty
Amendment shall be construed to impair, limit or reduce the security, rights or
powers that VKC or any other Landlord, or any of their successors, may have
under the Guaranty. Guarantor further reaffirms and ratifies its obligations to
be bound by and perform all of the terms of the Guaranty and any other
agreements to which it and any Landlord is a party.
3. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Guaranty Amendment shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois,
other than its doctrine regarding conflicts of laws. Guarantor irrevocably
submits to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court sitting in
the State of Illinois with respect to any matter arising under this Guaranty
Amendment. Guarantor consents to jurisdiction of the courts of the State of
Illinois and of the Federal courts sitting in the State of Illinois, and
consents to venue in the State of Illinois, and Guarantor waives any right to
stay, remove, or otherwise directly or indirectly interfere with such action
based on such jurisdiction.
4. Amendments; Successors. Neither this Guaranty Amendment nor the
Guaranty may be modified or amended except by a written agreement duly executed
by Guarantor and the Landlords that own one or more Properties at the time of
such modification or amendment. This Guaranty Amendment shall be binding upon
the Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of Landlords and their successors
and assigns as permitted under the Guaranty, including, without limitation, any
mortgagee of Landlord's interest in any Property. In the event any one or more
of the provisions contained in this Guaranty Amendment shall for any reason be
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this
Guaranty Amendment, but this Guaranty Amendment shall be construed as if such
invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
5. Counterparts. This Guaranty Amendment may be executed in two or
more counterparts, including via facsimile, each of which shall be deemed an
original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.
