EXECUTION VERSION
This Guaranty (as it may be amended, modified, amended and restated or divided from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof, this “Agreement”), dated as of April 26, 2018 (the “Effective Date”), is made by and among (i) Brookdale Senior Living Inc., a Delaware corporation (or any entity succeeding thereto by consolidation, merger or acquisition of all or substantially all of its assets, “Guarantor”), (ii) each of the parties identified as “Tenant” on the signature pages hereto (each such party identified as a Tenant on the signature pages hereto, together with its respective successors and permitted assigns, a “Tenant” and, collectively, the “Tenants”, and together with Guarantor and its Affiliates who are party to any BKD/VTR Document (as defined below), the “BKD Parties”), (iii) Ventas, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ventas”), acting for and on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates who are party to any BKD/VTR Document, and (iv) each of the parties identified as “Landlord” on the signature pages hereto (each such party identified as a Landlord on the signature pages hereto, together with its respective successors and permitted assigns, a “Landlord” and, collectively, the “Landlords”, and together with Ventas and their respective Affiliates who are party to this Agreement and/or any BKD/VTR Document, the “Ventas Parties”).
Landlords have previously acquired a fee simple or ground leased interest in the parcels of land described in the lease agreements identified on Exhibit A (as the same may be amended, modified, amended and restated or divided from time to time, the “Leases”) and the improvements located on said land (each a “Property” and, collectively, the “Properties”). Landlords lease the Properties to the Tenants. Any Ventas Party may update Exhibit A from time to time to incorporate (i) any lease and property that is or becomes the subject of a lease, and (ii) any loan or other agreement, in each case by, between and/or among Guarantor and/or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Ventas, any Landlord, and/or any of their respective Affiliates, on the other hand (including any amendments, restatements, replacements, substitutions, divisions or other alterations of any such documents from time to time). Such update to Exhibit A shall be effective immediately upon the delivery to Guarantor of (x) written notice of such update, and (y) a joinder agreement executed by each Affiliate of Ventas that is party to such lease or loan or other agreement. In addition, Exhibit A shall be deemed automatically amended and modified to exclude any lease, loan or other agreement that expires by its terms or is terminated or, subject to Section 27, is assigned by any Ventas Party to a third party (in which event the terms of Section 27 shall apply).
Subject to the foregoing, each of the leases and loan or other agreements identified from time to time on Exhibit A and ancillary documents relating thereto to which Guarantor, Tenant, or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and Ventas or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are party, including any Additional Lease (as defined in the Omnibus Agreement), is referred to herein as a “BKD/VTR Document” and collectively such documents are referred to herein as the “BKD/VTR Documents.” Each of Ventas and Guarantor, for itself and its respective Affiliates, agrees and acknowledges that, as of the Effective Date, there are no agreements, instruments or other arrangements by, between and/or among any of Ventas and/or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Guarantor and/or its Affiliates, on the other hand, that are effective as of the Effective Date other

than the BKD/VTR Documents and the Excluded Documents (as defined in the Omnibus Agreement), and any such agreements, instruments or other arrangements (other than the BKD/VTR Documents and the Excluded Documents) shall no longer be effective or enforceable.
Terms set forth in Section 25 of this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth therein. Initially capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the lease identified on Exhibit A as the “2018 Master Lease” (as the same may have been, and hereafter may be, amended, modified, amended and restated, or divided from time to time, the “2018 Master Lease”).
Except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, all accounting terms not otherwise defined in this Guaranty have the meanings assigned to them under GAAP. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each and any of the financial covenants herein (and the defined terms used for calculating such financial covenants) will be equitably adjusted by the parties to reflect the original intention of the parties to the extent the same is impacted by changes to GAAP (including, without limitation, the adoption of ASC 606 (Revenue Recognition) and ASC 842 (Leases)) and/or by any change in financial/accounting treatment of any agreement by, between and/or among any of the Ventas Parties, on the one hand, and any of the BKD Parties, on the other hand, whether or not resulting from the combination of certain leases into the 2018 Master Lease (and, for the avoidance of doubt, will be equitably adjusted for any charges resulting therefrom). If Landlord notifies Guarantor that Landlord requests, or if Guarantor notifies Landlord that Guarantor requests, in each case, an amendment to any provision hereof to effect such equitable adjustment, then such equitable adjustment shall be applied immediately (and, as applicable, for any previous period), and the parties hereto shall cooperate in good faith to document such amendment (although such amendment shall not be required to give effect to such equitable adjustment), and such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before the applicable change to GAAP became effective (to reflect the original intention of the parties) until such notice shall have been withdrawn.
This Agreement supersedes, as to each of the Ventas Parties (other than any Ventas Party that is a party to the ARC Pool 2 Documents (as defined in the Omnibus Agreement) and only with respect to the ARC Pool 2 Documents, subject to the terms of the Omnibus Agreement), that certain Guaranty (Parent Guaranty) dated as of February 11, 2009, that was heretofore executed and delivered by Guarantor. As of the Effective Date, Guarantor directly or indirectly owns all the stock, partnership interests or membership interests, as the case may be, of each Tenant, and Guarantor has derived or expects to derive financial and other advantages and benefits, directly or indirectly, from the making of this Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations. In conjunction with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto, (i) the Landlords and the Tenants have agreed to enter into the 2018 Master Lease, and (ii) each of Guarantor and Ventas have agreed to enter into that certain Amended and Restated Omnibus Agreement, dated as of the Effective Date (the “Omnibus Agreement”), and that certain letter agreement, dated as of the Effective Date (the “Letter Agreement”, and together with this Agreement, the 2018 Master Lease and the Omnibus Agreement, collectively, the “Transaction Documents”). Each of the parties hereto is unwilling to enter into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party unless the other parties hereto enter

into this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement will benefit, directly or indirectly, each of the parties hereto, including Guarantor.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of $10 and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each of the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, covenants and agrees as follows:
1.1.1. Guaranty. Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Landlords (the “Guaranty”) that (a) all Rent and all other sums due under the BKD/VTR Documents, whether due by acceleration or otherwise, including costs and expenses of collection (collectively, the “Monetary Obligations”) will be promptly and indefeasibly paid in full when due, in accordance with the provisions of the BKD/VTR Documents and (b) without limiting the foregoing, each of the Tenants and Affiliates of Tenants (each, an “Obligor”) that is a party to any BKD/VTR Document will perform and observe each and every covenant, agreement, term and condition of such party(ies) in the applicable BKD/VTR Documents (the “Performance Obligations” and together with the Monetary Obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). If, for any reason, any of the Monetary Obligations shall not be paid promptly when due after receipt of required notice (if any) to the applicable Tenant under the applicable BKD/VTR Document, and after the expiration of any applicable grace period therefor (if any), Guarantor shall, immediately upon demand, pay the same to the applicable Landlord or Affiliate of a Landlord with interest and penalty due thereon (if any), as stated in the applicable BKD/VTR Document. In addition to the foregoing, Guarantor hereby becomes surety to Landlords for the due and punctual payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives all defenses that may be available to Guarantor as a surety and guarantor, but shall have available the defense of payment of the Monetary Obligations, performance of the Performance Obligations and any defense pursuant to the terms of the BKD/VTR Documents. Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of all facts, events or circumstances that might in any way affect Guarantor’s risks under this Guaranty and agrees that no Ventas Party or any other Person will have any duty to advise Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding any such facts, events or circumstances, or to disclose to Guarantor any information or documents (financial or otherwise) heretofore or hereafter acquired by any Ventas Party in the course of its relationship with any Obligor.
2. Nature of Guaranty. Each Landlord may enforce the Guaranty without first having recourse against any Obligor or exhausting its rights or remedies under any BKD/VTR Document; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit any Landlord from exercising its rights against any or all Obligors simultaneously. The Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantor with respect to the Guaranty are present, primary, direct, continuing, unconditional, irrevocable and absolute. The Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection.
3. Representations, Warranties, and Covenants.

Ventas Party’s sole cost and expense (but only as to costs and expenses of such Ventas Party), in each case provided, and on the condition, that any such discussions shall not interfere with business operations. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the applicable Ventas Party and Guarantor, all of the discussions referenced in this Section 15 shall occur during normal business hours.
16. Security Deposits; Financial Covenants; Landlord Termination Right.
16.1. Guarantor shall provide to Landlord (i) on or before the Effective Date, and (ii) within five (5) Business Days following the date the applicable Financial Covenant Report is delivered or required to be delivered pursuant to Section 14, and (iii) within five (5) Business Days following the commencement of any Qualified Audit Period, a security deposit, as security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in an amount (if any) sufficient to cause the amount of the Security Deposit then held by Landlord to equal the Required Security Deposit Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any error in or dispute regarding the calculations contained in any Financial Covenant Report, Guarantor shall have a cure period of five (5) Business Days following written notice from Ventas of such error or dispute to post any shortfall in the Security Deposit, and such shortfall shall not constitute an Event of Default during such cure period. Until the earlier of the 31st day following the Effective Date and the expiration or termination of the applicable letter of credit, all letters of credit for the benefit of any Landlord with respect to any lease of any Property that are in effect as of the Effective Date shall be deemed to have been provided to such Landlord as part of the Security Deposit in accordance with clause (i) of this Section 16.1 and Section 16.5.
16.2. Guarantor shall maintain as of the last day of each calendar quarter (i) a Tangible Net Worth of not less than (A) during the Pre-COC Period, $[***], and (B) thereafter, $[***] (such applicable minimum Tangible Net Worth amount, the “Required Tangible Net Worth Amount”), and (ii) a Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio not greater than [***] (the “Maximum Net Leverage Ratio”); provided that the failure to maintain a Tangible Net Worth of at least the Required Tangible Net Worth Amount and a Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio of less than or equal to the Maximum Net Leverage Ratio shall not constitute an Event of Default if (1) Guarantor’s Tangible Net Worth is greater than (A) during the Pre-COC Period, $[***], and (B) thereafter, $[***], (2) Guarantor’s Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is less than [***], and (3) Guarantor has deposited with Landlords any required Cure Deposits in accordance with the terms of this Section 16. If, as of the last day of any calendar quarter, Guarantor’s Tangible Net Worth is less than the Required Tangible Net Worth Amount or Guarantor’s Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is greater than the Maximum Net Leverage Ratio (in each case, as reflected on any Financial Covenant Report), then Guarantor shall deposit (such deposit, the “Cure Deposit”) with Landlords, at the time specified in Section 16.1 (and subject to the cure period set forth therein), an amount (the “Required Cure Deposit Amount”) sufficient to cause the amount of the Security Deposit then held by Landlord to equal the Required Security Deposit Amount.
16.3. The Security Deposit shall be the property of Landlord; provided, that the amount of the Security Deposit delivered by Guarantor hereunder shall be deemed reduced by any amounts applied in accordance with Section 16.4 or retained by Landlord in accordance with Section 16.7.3.2, and Landlord shall refund unapplied portions of the Security Deposit to Guarantor in accordance with Section 16.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event it is ever determined
15
Portions of this exhibit that have been marked by [***] have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Security Deposit is the property of Guarantor (or Guarantor’s estate), then Guarantor, as debtor, hereby grants to Landlord, as secured party, a security interest in, and an express contractual lien upon, all of Guarantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Security Deposit and all products and proceeds thereof. Landlord may commingle the Security Deposit with other assets of Landlord or its Affiliates, and Guarantor shall not be entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit.
16.4. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Landlord may apply any portion of the Security Deposit to the extent required for the payment of any sum then due and payable under this Guaranty or for any sum which Landlord may have expended or may be required to expend by reason of the occurrence of such Event of Default, including any damages or deficiency accrued before or after summary proceedings or other re-entry of any of the Properties by Landlord. If Landlord so applies the Security Deposit (or any portion thereof), Guarantor shall replenish the Security Deposit in full, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand by Landlord, by paying to Landlord the amount of the Security Deposit so applied. The Security Deposit shall not be deemed an advance payment of any Guaranteed Obligation or a measure of Landlord’s damages for any default hereunder or under any of the BKD/VTR Documents, nor shall it be a bar or defense to any action that Landlord may at any time commence against Guarantor or any obligor under any of the BKD/VTR Documents.
16.5. At Guarantor’s election, the Security Deposit shall take the form of any combination of either (a) a cash deposit or (b) no more than three (3) unconditional and irrevocable standby letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”). Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that, if it elects to deliver any portion of the Security Deposit in the form of a Letter of Credit, Guarantor must satisfy such requirement with no more than three (3) Letters of Credit in the aggregate amount, together with any cash deposits that have not been refunded or applied, equal to the Required Security Deposit Amount.
16.5.1. Any Letter of Credit provided hereunder shall be in a form and issued by a financial institution (the “LOC Bank”) reasonably acceptable to Ventas (except that it shall be mandatory that each Letter of Credit (a) shall be issued by an LOC Bank that is based in the United States (unless Ventas, in its reasonable discretion, approves an LOC Bank that is not based in the United States), has long term ratings from at least two of Fitch, Xxxxx’x and Standard & Poor’s and, with respect to the rating agencies from which it has a long term rating, maintains at least a BBB+ long term rating from Fitch and Standard & Poor’s and at least a Baa1 long term rating from Xxxxx’x, (b) provide for automatic renewals of the Letter of Credit, (c) allow the holder of such Letter of Credit to draw the full amount of such Letter of Credit at any time on or after the date that is 30 days prior to the scheduled expiration date of such Letter of Credit and (d) provide that draws are to be made at an office of the LOC Bank within the United States). If Landlord draws on any Letter of Credit pursuant to clause (c) above, the proceeds thereof shall be held as a Security Deposit pursuant to the terms of this Section 16. Guarantor shall promptly provide a substitute Letter of Credit in a form and from a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Ventas (but subject to the requirements set forth above), in the event any of the following occurs: (i) the LOC Bank ceases to satisfy the requirements set forth in clause (a) above with respect to long term ratings; (ii) the LOC Bank is no longer considered to be well capitalized under the prompt corrective action
16

rules of the FDIC (or any successor agency); or (iii) the LOC Bank is declared insolvent, placed into receivership or otherwise closed for any reason by the FDIC (or any successor agency). In the event that Fitch, Xxxxx’x or Standard & Poor’s ceases publishing bank credit ratings a comparable credit rating service and comparable credit ratings as published by such service shall be substituted at Ventas’ discretion.
16.5.2. No condition or term of this Guarantee or any of the BKD/VTR Documents shall be deemed to render any Letter of Credit conditional to justify the issuer of any Letter of Credit in failing to honor a drawing upon such Letter of Credit in a timely manner. Guarantor agrees and acknowledges that (a) each Letter of Credit constitutes a separate and independent contract between Landlord and the LOC Bank, (b) Guarantor is not a third party beneficiary of such contract, (c) Guarantor has no property interest whatsoever in any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof, and (d) in the event Guarantor becomes a debtor under any chapter of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, neither Guarantor, nor any trustee, nor Guarantor’s bankruptcy estate shall have any right to restrict or limit Guarantor’s claim and/or rights to any Letter of Credit and/or the proceeds thereof by application of Section 502(b)(6) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.
16.6. Unapplied portions of the Security Deposit shall be refunded to Guarantor as follows:
16.6.1. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if Guarantor’s Tangible Net Worth increases and/or Guarantor’s Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio decreases such that for two consecutive quarters the amount of the Security Deposit is greater than the Required Security Deposit Amount (as evidenced by the applicable Financial Covenant Reports), then within five (5) Business Days following such determination, the Ventas Parties shall refund to Guarantor (or, if the Security Deposit includes one or more Letter(s) of Credit, consent to the reduction of the face amount of such Letters of Credit by) an amount equal to (x) the unapplied portion of the Security Deposit then held by the Ventas Parties, minus (y) the Required Security Deposit Amount, determined using the maximum Rent Multiplier that was applicable at any time during such two quarter period (or, if applicable, Letters of Credit shall be substituted in a corresponding amount).
16.6.2. If any Lease is terminated with respect to any Facility in connection with the sale or disposition of such Facility pursuant to Section 16.7 or otherwise, then (i) the Required Security Deposit Amount set forth in the first row of the “Pre-COC Period” table set forth in the definition thereof shall be reduced proportionately by the amount allocable to such Facility based on the minimum or base rents payable with respect to such Facility, and (ii) the applicable Ventas Party shall promptly refund to Guarantor (or, if the Security Deposit includes one or more Letters of Credit, consent to the reduction of the face amount of such Letters of Credit by) an amount equal to (x) the unapplied portion of the Security Deposit then held by the Ventas Parties, minus (y) the Required Security Deposit Amount, determined after giving effect to such termination and the foregoing clause (i).
16.6.3. Within five (5) Business Days following the termination of any Qualified Audit Period, the Ventas Parties shall refund to Guarantor (or, if the Security Deposit includes one or more Letters of Credit, consent to the reduction of the face amount of such Letters
17

of Credit by) an amount equal to (x) the unapplied portion of the Security Deposit then held by the Ventas Parties (excluding any portion thereof attributable to any Property(ies) with respect to which Landlord has given a notice pursuant to Section 16.7.3.2 and for which the 365-day period described therein has not yet elapsed; provided, that any such portion shall be refunded to Guarantor (or the Ventas Parties shall consent to the reduction of the face amount of any Letters of Credit) promptly following the termination of such 365-day to the extent the applicable sale or transition without a sale of such Property(ies) has not been consummated), minus (y) the Required Security Deposit Amount, determined after giving effect to the termination of such Qualified Audit Period.
16.6.4. No later than 93 days after the full, final and indefeasible performance and satisfaction of all of the Guaranteed Obligations, the full unapplied amount of the Security Deposit shall be refunded to Guarantor (or in the case of any Letter of Credit, shall be terminated).
16.7. During any Landlord Termination Right Period, Landlord shall have the right to market and sell, and/or to market and transition operations without a sale (e.g., a transaction pursuant to which Landlord retains its ownership of, and the applicable Lease terminates relative to, a particular Property and Landlord and a succesor operator enter into a lease or management arrangement with respect to such Property), any Property or Properties; provided, notwithstanding the foregoing, that in the case of a sale or transition without a sale, in one or a series of related transactions, of fewer than all the Properties, Landlord shall not have the right to terminate the applicable Leases with respect to such Property or Properties pursuant to this Section 16.7 if on the date the binding agreement(s) with respect to such sale or transition without a sale are entered into, the Portfolio Coverage Ratio for the Trailing Four Quarter Period calculated with respect to all of the Properties (excluding such Property or Properties to be sold or transitioned without a sale) shall be less than the Portfolio Coverage Ratio calculated with respect to all of the Properties (including such Property or Properties to be sold or transitioned without a sale). In the event Landlord elects to market and sell, and/or to market and transition without a sale, any Property or Properties pursuant to this Section 16.7, the following provisions shall apply with respect to such Property or Properties:
16.7.1. In connection with the sale, or the transition without a sale, of any Property, Tenant shall execute and deliver to the purchaser or successor operator, as applicable, or its nominee, an operations transfer agreement in a customary and commercially reasonable form and execute and deliver to any applicable title insurer such certificates and other undertakings relating to any such Property, if applicable, as would customarily be delivered by a tenant under a triple net lease in a similar transaction and in customary and commercially reasonable form upon reasonable request by such title insurer;
16.7.2. Tenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts (i) to cooperate with Landlord and its Affiliates and any applicable potential purchaser and/or successor operator, and (ii) to assist Landlord and its Affiliates and any applicable potential purchaser and/or successor operator, in connection with the marketing and sale and/or marketing and transition without a sale process as reasonably requested by Landlord; and

Landlord shall be entitled (1) to receive and retain all proceeds from any such sale or transition without a sale, and (2) to retain (A) during the Pre-COC Period, the percentage of the Security Deposit attributable to such Property(ies) set forth in the table below based on the Portfolio Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such sale or transition without a sale, and (B) thereafter, 100% of the Security Deposit attributable to such Property(ies):
Portfolio Coverage Ratio: | Percentage |
> [***] | [***]% |
≤ [***] | [***]% |
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during any Qualified Audit Period Landlord gives written notice to Tenant that it intends to market and sell, and/or to market and transition operations without a sale, any Property or Properties, and such sale or transition without a sale is subsequently consummated within 365 days following such written notice, then the portion of the Security Deposit permitted to be retained by Landlord upon such consummation shall be determined based on the Portfolio Coverage Ratio and Security Deposit attributable to such Property(ies) at the time of such notice, without giving effect to any subsequent changes in the Portfolio Coverage Ratio or the Security Deposit attributable to such Property(ies) (including any such change resulting from the termination of such Qualified Audit Period).
16.8. All determinations of Tangible Net Worth, the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, and the Portfolio Coverage Ratio in this Section 16 shall be made based on the most recent Financial Covenant Report as of the applicable date of determination.
16.9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any BKD/VTR Document, no sale or transition without a sale shall include any conveyance by any Tenant (or its Affiliates) of the Excluded Property (which assets shall remain the sole property to the Tenant(s) and their Affiliates).
