2. Provisions:

1. Any provisions of this Agreement shall be granted to the fullest extent permitted by and not in violation of any applicable law (now enacted and/or hereafter amended) and any Provider Agreements.

2. To further secure the Obligations, Master Tenant hereby grants a security interest and pledges to Secured Party all of Master Tenant's rights, title and interest in, to and under the Leases, including Master Tenant's right, power and authority to modify the terms of any such Lease, or extend or terminate any such Lease. This Agreement creates and perfects a lien on the Leases in favor of Secured Party, which lien shall be effective as of the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent Master Tenant has granted or in the future grants an assignment or security interest to Secured Party in any of the Other Subleases in connection with any of other FHA-insured mortgage loans, nothing in this Agreement is intended to nullify, void, amend, modify, delay the effectiveness, affect the priority, or otherwise affect any such assignment or grant of security interest.

3. Master Tenant absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Secured Party all of Master Tenant’s rights, title and interest in and to the Rents.  It is the intention of Master Tenant to establish a present, absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Secured Party of all of Master Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to the Rents. Master Tenant and Secured Party intend this assignment of the Rents to be immediately effective and to constitute an absolute present assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. For purposes of this absolute assignment, the term “Rents” shall not be deemed to include Government Payments to the extent and for so long as assignment of such payments or receivables is prohibited by applicable law. For purposes of giving effect to this absolute assignment of the Rents, and for no other purpose, the Rents shall not be deemed to be a part of the collateral otherwise described in the Security Agreement. However, if this present, absolute and unconditional assignment of the Rents is not enforceable by its terms under the laws of the applicable jurisdictions, then the Rents (including the Government Payments to the maximum extent now or hereafter permitted by applicable law) shall be included as a part of the Collateral and it is the intention of Master Tenant that in this circumstance this Agreement create and perfect a lien on the Rents in favor of Secured Party, which lien shall be effective as of the date of this Agreement. Provided, however, to the extent Master Tenant may have granted an assignment or security interest to Secured Party in any of the Other Subleases in connection with any of the Other FHA-insured Loans (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law with respect to the Healthcare Assets), nothing in this Agreement is intended to nullify, void, amend, modify, delay the effectiveness, affect the priority, or otherwise affect any such assignment or grant of security interest.

4. Notwithstanding anything contained in Paragraphs (a) and (b) above, Master Tenant shall have the right, power and authority to collect Rents as such rights are limited or affected by the terms of the Loan Documents and Program Obligations. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default and notice by the Secured Party, subject to applicable law with respect to Government Payments and Accounts, the permission given to Master Tenant pursuant to the preceding sentence to exercise its rights, power and authority under Leases shall terminate and Secured Party may exercise its rights, power and authority under the Leases, in whole or in part, as specified by Secured Party in its notice (subject to Secured Party taking such enforcement action as may be required by applicable law as a condition for enforcement of an assignment of rents or leases). Master Tenant agrees to comply with and observe Master Tenant's obligations under all Leases, including Master Tenant's obligations, if any, pertaining to the maintenance and disposition of security deposits, both before and after any such termination of the Master Tenant’s rights.

5. Master Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the exercise by Secured Party, either directly or by its designee, of any of the rights conferred under this Agreement shall not be construed to make Secured Party a mortgagee-in-possession of the Healthcare Facility so long as, and to the extent, Secured Party, or an authorized agent of Secured Party, has not entered into actual possession of the Healthcare Facility. The acceptance by Secured Party of the assignment of the Leases and Rents shall not at any time or in any event obligate Secured Party to take any action under this Agreement or to expend any money or to incur any expenses. Secured Party shall not be liable in any way for any injury or damage to person or property sustained by any person or persons, firm or corporation in or about the Healthcare Facility unless Secured Party is a mortgagee-in-possession. Prior to Secured Party's actual entry into and taking possession of the Healthcare Facility, Secured Party shall not (1) be obligated to perform any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in any Lease (or otherwise have any obligation with respect to any Lease); (2) be obligated to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Leases or the Healthcare Facility; or (3) be responsible for the operation, control, care, management or repair of the Healthcare Facility or any portion of the Healthcare Facility. The execution of this Agreement by Master Tenant shall constitute conclusive evidence that all responsibility for the operation, control, care, management and repair of the Healthcare Facility is and shall be that of Master Tenant, prior to such actual entry and taking of possession.

6. Upon delivery of notice by Secured Party to Master Tenant of Secured Party's exercise of Secured Party's rights under this Agreement at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and without the necessity of Secured Party entering upon and taking and maintaining control of the Healthcare Facility directly, by a receiver, or by any other manner or proceeding permitted by the laws of the applicable jurisdiction, Secured Party immediately shall have all rights, powers and authority granted to Master Tenant under any Lease, including the right, power and authority to modify the terms of any such Lease, or extend or terminate any such Lease.

7. This document may be executed in counterparts.

1. The rights and remedies in favor of Secured Party hereunder are subject to the limitations and terms set forth in the Rider to Master Tenant Security Agreement, if applicable.
