EXHIBIT 10.7.4
THIRD AMENDMENT TO GUARANTY OF LEASE
This Third Amendment to Guaranty of Lease (this "Guaranty Amendment"),
dated as of March 10, 2004, 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"), and Ventas Kansas City I, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company ("VKC" and, together with Initial Beneficiary, "Second
Amendment 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") and that
certain Second Amendment to Guaranty dated as of February 26, 2004 between
Guarantor and Initial Beneficiary (together with the Original Guaranty and the
First Amendment, the "Guaranty"). Initial Beneficiary and certain of its
affiliates (each a "Landlord" and, collectively, "Landlords") are simultaneously
herewith acquiring a fee simple interest in the parcels of land described on
Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof, and the improvements located
on said land (each a "New Property" and, collectively, the "New Properties") and
leasing the New Properties to the entities identified as Tenant on Schedule C,
attached hereto and made a part hereof (each a "New Tenant" and, collectively,
the "New Tenants"), pursuant to those certain leases identified on Schedule C
attached hereto and made a part hereof (each a "New Lease" and, collectively,
the "New Leases"). Initially capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall
have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Guaranty. Landlords are unwilling
to acquire the New Properties or enter into the New Leases unless Guarantor
enters into this Guaranty Amendment. Guarantor directly or indirectly owns all
the stock, partnership interests or membership interests, as the case may be, of
each New Tenant. The acquisition by Landlords of the New Properties and the
lease of the New Properties to New Tenants is of direct benefit to Guarantor.
This Guaranty Amendment reasonably may be expected to benefit, directly or
indirectly, Guarantor.
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 Second
Amendment Beneficiaries as follows:
1. Certain Amendments. Exhibit A to the Guaranty is hereby amended
to include each of the New Properties identified on Exhibit A attached hereto.
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, as amended hereby, 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 Second Amendment
Beneficiaries 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, Landlords and VKC. 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. As
used herein the term "New Tenant" and the term "New Tenants" includes their
successors and assigns with respect to the New Leases.
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.
