2.PRIORITIES

2.1AR Lender Priority.

(a)AR Lender and FHA Lender agree that, as between AR Lender and FHA Lender, subject to Section 2.1(b), at all times, whether before, during or after the pendency of any bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding, and notwithstanding the taking of possession of, or other exercise of rights in respect of the FHA Lender Priority Collateral (or any portion thereof) or the priorities that ordinarily would result under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in each and every applicable jurisdiction, and as amended from time to time, and other applicable law for the order of granting or perfecting of any security interests referred to herein, AR Lender shall have a first and prior security interest in, upon and to the AR Lender Priority Collateral; and FHA Lender hereby subordinates to AR Lender’s security interest FHA Lender’s security interest in the AR Lender Priority Collateral. FHA Lender, Owner and Operator agree, that, in the event AR Lender seeks to enforce any of its remedies under the AR Loan Documents, AR Lender may have reasonable access to the Facility for any inspection and copying of the books and records of Operator relating to the AR Lender Priority Collateral and the FHA Lender Priority Collateral, provided that AR Lender shall promptly repair any damage to the Facility caused by AR Lender or its agents resulting from such inspection and copying. AR Lender agrees that, notwithstanding anything in the AR Loan Documents to the contrary: (i) AR Lender may not require Operator to deliver the books and records of Operator to AR Lender; and (ii) AR Lender’s rights to inspect and copy Operator’s books and records shall be limited to those rights set forth in the preceding sentence.

(b)If AR Lender’s security interest (as now or in the future existing) in the AR Lender Priority Collateral becomes, in whole or in part, for any reason, unperfected or is judicially or administratively determined to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, or is voided, in whole or in part, then the subordination by FHA Lender in favor of AR Lender under Section 2.1(a) hereof will not be effective as to the AR Lender Priority Collateral. If any such event occurs, and as a result thereof, a creditor subordinate to AR Lender would have or would be entitled to claim, priority over the FHA Lender in the AR Lender Priority Collateral, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed as a subordination by FHA Lender to such other creditor.

(c)Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, AR Lender shall not have a first lien on Project Collateral to secure any Indemnity Obligations. For purposes of this Agreement, such obligations shall not be deemed “AR Loan Obligations” or “Priority Obligations,” and no advance made by AR Lender for such purpose shall be deemed a Protective Advance. Nothing in this section shall preclude AR Lender from securing the aforesaid obligations, including without limitation securing such obligations with non-Project Collateral, guaranties that are not secured by a lien on Project Collateral, or insurance proceeds that are not part of Project Collateral, provided, however, Indemnity Obligations shall not receive the priorities or rights granted to Priority Obligations and AR Loan Obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the AR Loan Documents, AR Lender shall not have any right to conduct, or to require any operator to conduct, environmental remediation or invasive environmental testing of the Facility.

2.2FHA Lender Priority.

(a) AR Lender and FHA Lender agree that, as between AR Lender and FHA Lender, subject to Section 2.2(b), at all times, whether before, during or after the pendency of any bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding, and notwithstanding the taking of possession of, or other exercise of rights in respect of, the AR Lender Priority Collateral (or any portion thereof) or the priorities that ordinarily would result under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in each and every applicable jurisdiction, and as amended from time to time, and other applicable law for the order of granting or perfecting of any security interests referred to herein, FHA Lender shall have a first and prior security interest in, upon and to the FHA Lender Priority Collateral; and AR Lender hereby subordinates to FHA Lender AR Lender’s security interest, if any, in the FHA Lender Priority Collateral. AR Lender agrees it shall not foreclose or otherwise exercise any remedy with respect to any second lien it has or may acquire with respect to Accounts or the FHA Lender Priority Collateral, without the prior written consent of the FHA Lender. Promptly upon execution of this Agreement, AR Lender agrees to cause itself to be removed from any insurance policy and insurance certificate that has any designation of AR Lender as (a) loss payee or lender’s loss payee on any insurance with respect to any FHA Lender Priority Collateral upon which AR Lender does not have a subordinate lien as permitted by this Agreement and (b) primary loss payee or primary lender’s loss payee on any insurance with respect to any FHA Lender Priority Collateral upon which AR Lender has a subordinate lien permitted under this Agreement.

(b) If FHA Lender’s security interest (as now or in the future existing) in the FHA Lender Priority Collateral becomes, in whole or in part, for any reason, unperfected or is judicially or administratively determined to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, or is voided, in whole or in part, then, to the extent FHA Lender has a security interest in the FHA Lender’s Priority Collateral, the subordination by AR Lender in favor of FHA Lender under Section 2.2(a) hereof will not be effective as to the FHA Lender Priority Collateral. If any such event occurs, and as a result thereof, a creditor subordinate to FHA Lender would have or would be entitled to claim, priority over AR Lender in the FHA Lender Priority Collateral, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed as a subordination by AR Lender to such other creditor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, FHA Lender shall have a first priority security interest in the FHA Lender’s Priority Collateral applicable to the corresponding Facility, provided however, AR Lender shall have the ability to utilize the FHA Lender’s Priority Collateral solely to the extent necessary to exercise any of AR Lender’s rights and/or remedies (including without limitation billing and collecting the Operator’s accounts receivable and other assets comprising AR Lender Priority Collateral) under the AR Loan Documents.

(c) FHA Lender acknowledges that one or more of the Other Facilities, if any, may be subject to loans made by other HUD-approved lenders and insured or held by HUD. The AR Loan may provide financing for and may be secured by collateral pertaining to any or all of the Other Facilities. This Agreement is intended to set forth the priorities, rights, and responsibilities of FHA Lender vis-à-vis AR Lender, only, and shall not affect priorities of the FHA-Lender vis-a–vis any other lender of any Other Facilities.

2.3Standstill.

(a)Until the AR Loan Obligations have been Paid in Full, or following the delivery of the Cut-Off Time notice pursuant to this agreement, until the Priority Obligations have been Paid in Full, FHA Lender and Owner shall not exercise any remedies with regard to the AR Lender Priority Collateral; provided however, after a Triggering Event, the foregoing shall not prohibit the FHA Lender from (i) taking any action against the Operator with respect to any FHA Lender’s Priority Collateral, (ii) terminating a Owner-Operator Agreement, (iii) commencing an action for possession or for collection of rent or other monetary amounts due under such Owner-Operator Agreement or for specific enforcement of a Operator’s covenants under such Owner-Operator Agreement, so long as such actions do not comprise the exercise of a remedy with regard to AR Lender Priority Collateral, (iv) pursuing the remedies specified in the definition of “Possession Date” or (v) applying to the HUD Obligations proceeds of the AR Lender Priority Collateral after repayment in full of the Priority Obligations.

(b)Until the HUD Obligations have been satisfied in full, AR Lender shall not affirmatively exercise any remedies with regard to the FHA Lender Priority Collateral.

(c)Without limiting the foregoing, FHA Lender shall deliver to AR Lender ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of the commencement of any action or undertaking to take physical possession, control or management of the Facility (the “Possession Date Notice”).

(d)AR Lender shall have a first and prior security interest in the AR Lender Priority Collateral until the Priority Obligations are Paid in Full, and FHA Lender shall have a subordinate lien in the AR Lender Priority Collateral. From and after the Cut-Off Time, all amounts received by AR Lender on account of the AR Lender Priority Collateral shall be applied solely to the Priority Obligations and AR Lender shall not recover any portion of the AR Loan Obligations, other than the Priority Obligations, from the AR Lender Priority Collateral until the HUD Obligations are paid in full. Nothing herein shall prevent AR Lender from collecting the full amount of the AR Loan Obligations from any guarantors thereof and/or from collateral other than the AR Lender Priority Collateral and/or the FHA Lender Priority Collateral. FHA Lender shall have a first and prior security interest in any Accounts arising after the Cut-Off Time, other than as expressly provided in clause (b) of the definition of AR Lender Priority Collateral.

(e)Without limiting any of its rights hereunder or under the AR Loan Documents, at any time after the Cut-Off Time, AR Lender shall have the right to cease making Advances. To the extent AR Lender makes Protective Advances after the Cut-Off Time and prior to effective delivery of any Possession Date Notice, it shall retain a first priority lien on all AR Lender Priority Collateral related to the Accounts against which it has made such Protective Advances.

(f)Except as may be expressly set forth herein, including but not limited to in Section 2.6(b) hereof, FHA Lender, Owner, and Operator hereby agree that any AR Lender Priority Collateral and proceeds thereof, which may come into the possession of FHA Lender or Owner or Operator will be held in trust for AR Lender, and FHA Lender and Owner shall turn over any AR Lender Priority Collateral and/or proceeds thereof to AR Lender, in the same form as received with any necessary endorsements, promptly upon receipt, until all of the Priority Obligations have been Paid in Full and the commitments of AR Lender to fund under the AR Loan Documents have terminated.

(g)Any FHA Lender Priority Collateral that may come into the possession of AR Lender, Operator or Owner will be held in trust by AR Lender, Operator or Owner (as applicable), for FHA Lender, and such recipient shall turn over any FHA Lender Priority Collateral so received to FHA Lender in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, promptly upon receipt, until the HUD Obligations have been Paid in Full in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any replacement operator or receiver who commences operating the Facility shall agree in writing to abide by the provisions of this Section 2.3(g) to the extent it, or its new lender, if any, comes into possession of any FHA Lender Priority Collateral.

2.4No Contest.

(a)FHA Lender agrees that it will not make any assertion or claim in any action, suit or proceeding of any nature whatsoever in any way challenging the priority, validity or effectiveness of the liens and security interests granted to AR Lender with respect to the AR Lender Priority Collateral provided that, nothing in this Section 2.4(a) shall prevent FHA Lender from taking all appropriate steps to protect and preserve its priority in the circumstances contemplated in Section 2.1(b). FHA Lender further agrees that, subject to Section 2.2(b), AR Lender’s lien and security interest in the AR Lender Priority Collateral shall at all times, while any indebtedness or obligations under the AR Loan Documents are owing from Operator to AR Lender, be superior and prior to the liens and security interests granted to the FHA Lender in such AR Lender Priority Collateral, irrespective of the time, order or method of attachment or perfection of AR Lender’s and the FHA Lender’s liens and security interests, or the filing of financing statements, or the taking of possession of the FHA Lender’s Priority Collateral, or any portion thereof.

(b)AR Lender agrees that it will not make any assertion or claim in any action, suit or proceeding of any nature whatsoever in any way challenging the priority, validity or effectiveness of the liens and security interests granted to FHA Lender with respect to the FHA Lender’s Priority Collateral; provided that, nothing in this Section 2.4(b) shall prevent AR Lender from taking all appropriate steps to protect and preserve its priority in the circumstances contemplated in Section 2.2(b). AR Lender further agrees that FHA Lender’s lien and security interest in the FHA Lender’s Priority Collateral shall at all times while any indebtedness or obligations under the HUD Loan Documents are owing from the Owner to the FHA Lender, be superior and prior to the liens and security interests granted to AR Lender in such FHA Lender’s Priority Collateral, irrespective of the time, order or method of attachment or perfection of the FHA Lender’s liens and security interests, or the filing of financing statements or the taking of possession of the AR Lender Priority Collateral, or any portion thereof.

(c) AR Lender waives, in respect of FHA Lender, any and all rights under any theory of marshalling or ordering of the disposition of collateral and accordingly, AR Lender agrees that FHA Lender may (i) proceed directly against any collateral in which FHA Lender has a lien or security interest and/or any guarantor of the HUD Obligations in any particular order and (ii) release, surrender, substitute or exchange any collateral and/or any guarantor at any time without affecting the agreements set forth in this Agreement. FHA Lender waives, in respect of AR Lender, any and all rights under any theory of marshalling or ordering of the disposition of collateral and accordingly, FHA Lender agrees that AR Lender may (A) proceed directly against any collateral in which AR Lender has a lien or security interest (subject to the terms of this Agreement) and/or any guarantor of the AR Loan Obligations in any particular order and (B) release, surrender, substitute or exchange any collateral and/or any guarantor at any time without affecting the agreements set forth in this Agreement.
