German term or phrase: Gesellschafterstellung
Die Horton Sachs hat nach dieser ersten Mietzeit die Möglichkeit den Mietvertrag um 10 weitere Jahre (zweite Mietzeit) zu verlängern. Sofern sie keine Verlängerung wünscht, werden die Forderungen aus der zweiten Mietzeit mit dem Erlös aus der Veräußerung des Objektes verrechnet. Aufgrund der Gesellschafterstellung der Horton Sachs ist die Zuweisung von Mehrerlösen sichergestellt

shareholder position
Explanation:
TIN,
this means that Horton Sachs (HS) is a 'Gesellschafter' of the subject company and thus will in all events partake in any additional profits from what seems at first glance to be a sale-and-lease-back deal.
Quite how you translate "Gesellschafter" will depend on whether HS holds shares (Aktien) in an AG, or whether we have a GmbH, in which HS has an Anteil, in which case 'partnership position' (or 'status') might be a better translation. Or you could get round the distinction by translating 'owing to HS' equity holding . . .'
HTH a bit,
Rod
