A 299-year lease is being granted in this case. Paragraph 6.1 of the lease agreement states:

The Landlord hereby covenants with the Tenant [which is the NMH] that so long as the Tenant pays the rents and observes and performs the covenants and the conditions of this Lease the Tenant may hold and enjoy the Premises and the rights hereby granted peaceably during the Term without any unlawful interruption by the Landlord or any person lawfully claiming under or in trust for the Landlord.

In other words, the lease is quite clear that the tenant or the lessee has full control over the premises.
