NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, LANDLORD ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT TENANT SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY COSTS, DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE EXISTING EASEMENTS AND ENCROACHMENTS OR THE MATTERS DESCRIBED IN THE MISSING ESTOPPELS, BUT THAT THE SAME ARE, AND SHALL REMAIN, THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF LANDLORD.
3. COMMENCEMENT DATE. Section 3.1 is amended by inserting the following at the end thereof:
Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Commencement Date, each Facility Commencement Date and accordingly the Initial Term are tied to the issuance to Tenant of its licenses to operate the Facilities (unless the Prior Tenant agrees to enter into the Interim Operating Documents with Tenant pending issuance of its licenses) and that they have agreed that Tenant will use its good faith efforts to secure such licenses for all of the Facilities by January 1, 2010; provided, however, Tenant shall not be in default of its obligations under this Lease if it is unable to obtain some or all of the licenses by January 1, 2010.

(b) Section 4.2 is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following inserted in lieu thereof:
4.2 Base Rent for Extended Term. Base Rent for the Extended Term shall increase by three percent (3%) per year on the commencement of the Extended Term and each Annual Rent Adjustment Date thereafter during the Extended Term.

5. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS. A new Section 7.5 is added to the Master Lease which provides as follows:
7.5. Capital Allowance.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Article 7, Landlord and Tenant have agreed to fund on a 50-50 basis the cost of certain repairs, renovations and alterations to the Facilities (the “RRA”) and/or the acquisition of certain furniture, fixtures and equipment for the Facilities (the “FF & E” and together with the RRA, the “Improvements”), with the aggregate amount required to be contributed by Landlord and Tenant for the Improvements not to exceed One Million Five Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($1,500,000.00) (the “Capital Allowance”), with up to Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($750,000.00) of such amount being provided by Landlord (the “Landlord’s Share of the Capital Allowance”) and with up to Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($750,000) of such amount being provided by Tenant (the “Tenant’s Share of the Capital Allowance”).

Accordingly, as between Landlord and Tenant, Landlord shall be required to bear a disproportionate share of the cost of a portion of the Improvements but in no event (A) shall the amount which Landlord is required to advance in the aggregate with respect to the Improvements exceed the Landlord’s Share of the Capital
Allowance nor (B) shall the amount which Tenant is required to advance in the aggregate with respect to the Improvements and the Vehicles exceed the Tenant’s Share of the Capital Allowance.
(b) The Capital Allowance may be allocated by Tenant between the Facilities in such manner as Tenant deems to be necessary and appropriate to equip, repair, renovate and/or alter the Facilities; provided, however, any proposed use by Tenant of the Landlord’s Share of the Capital Allowance shall be subject to the review and prior written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (“Landlord’s Approval”) and which Landlord’s Approval shall be deemed to have been given unless such approval is denied in writing within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s submission of a request for approval to Landlord.
(c) Any portion of the Landlord’s Share of the Capital Allowance advanced by Landlord will increase the Base Rent due and payable with respect to the affected Facility commencing on the first day of the first month following the applicable Disbursement Date (each a “Capital Allowance Rent Adjustment Date”) by an amount equal to (i) the product of the amount advanced multiplied by nine percent per annum (ii) divided by twelve (12). Any portion of the Tenant’s Share of the Capital Allowance advanced by Tenant will be deemed to be a Capital Expenditure within the meaning of Section 7.1 of this Lease.
(d) In response to a written disbursement request in substantially the form attached as Exhibit L (each a “Request for Advance”), Landlord shall make advances of the Landlord’s Share of the Capital Allowance on the last day of each calendar month in which a Request for Advance is received provided no Event of Default has occurred and/or is continuing and provided that each of the following conditions has been satisfied or waived by Landlord in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, and, provided that, if the last day of the month is not a business day, then the advance shall be disbursed on the last business day of that month (each a “Disbursement Date”):
(i) If the Request for Advance relates to the purchase of FF& E, Landlord shall disburse to Tenant such portions of the Landlord’s Share of the Capital Allowance as are necessary to reimburse Tenant for fifty percent (50%) of the amount of the paid invoice; and
(ii) If the Request for Advance relates to the cost of an RRA to a Facility, Landlord shall disburse to Tenant such portions of the Landlord’s Share of the Capital Allowance as are necessary to reimburse Tenant for fifty percent (50%) of the cost thereof subject to Tenant’s compliance with the following conditions:
(A) Tenant shall submit a completed Request for Advance, no later than the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of any calendar month;
(B) Tenant shall have delivered to Landlord all original mechanics’ lien waivers, in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord, reasonably deemed necessary by Landlord for services and materials provided in connection with the RRA;
(C) All costs for the RRA are to be certified by Tenant in accordance with the Request for Advance. Verification of the monthly progress of the RRA and the costs incurred may be made by Landlord in its reasonable judgment;
(D) Tenant shall be deemed to have remade, as of the date of each advance, each and every representation and warranty made by Tenant in this Master Lease, and each such representation and warranty shall be true and correct at the time of each advance;
(E) Tenant shall have provided Landlord with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that the RRA complies with all building, zoning and other laws and governmental codes, rules and regulations, all necessary licenses, permits, approvals and consents required for the use, occupancy and operation of the Facility and evidence satisfactory to Landlord that, as of the date of the final Request for Advance, to the extent required by applicable laws and regulations, the RRA has been inspected and approved by each governmental authority with jurisdiction over the RRA and by each person or entity that has the right to inspect and approve the RRA, and each applicable governmental authority shall have issued the appropriate permit, license or certificate to evidence such approval;
(F) Before processing the final Request for Advance, Landlord shall have received a completion certificate, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit M, executed by Tenant stating that the RRA has been completed, together with such other evidence that no mechanics or materialmen’s liens or other encumbrances have been filed and remain in effect against the Facility, or appropriate lien waivers from any contractor or subcontractor;
(G) To the extent an architect has been engaged, a signed copy of the “AIA Document G702 Application and Certificate for Payment” shall have been submitted to Lessor with each Request for Advance.
6. SECURITY INTEREST. Section 11.1 is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following inserted in lieu thereof:
Tenant shall execute in favor of Landlord a security agreement in the form attached as Exhibit G hereto, granting to Landlord a first priority security interest in all Tenant’s Personal Property, Accounts, general intangibles, contract rights and healthcare insurance receivables arising from the operations of each Facility and other interests of Tenant which security interest shall secure the payment of all Rent and the performance of all other obligations of the Tenant under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the security interest granted to Landlord with respect to Tenant’s Personal Property in this Section 11.1 is intended by Landlord and Tenant to be subordinate to any security interest granted in connection with the financing or leasing of all or any portion of the Tenant’s Personal Property. Tenant shall cooperate in filing all financing statements needed to perfect such security interest.
7. COVERAGE RATIO. Section 11.2 is amended by inserting the following at the end thereof:
Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the First Lease Year the Gilbert Facility shall be excluded from the calculation of the Lease Coverage Ratio.
8. PURCHASE OPTION. Section 25.16(b) is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following inserted in lieu thereof:
(b) The Purchase Price for the exercise of the Purchase Option shall be the sum of the Base Purchase Price plus fifty percent (50%) of the amount, if any, by which the fair market value of the Facilities subject to this Lease at the time the Purchase Option is exercised exceeds the Base Purchase Price.
9. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.
(a) Sections 27(c) and (d) are hereby deleted in their entirety and the following inserted in lieu thereof:
(c) It shall be a condition to Tenant’s obligations hereunder that Tenant shall be satisfied in its sole and absolute discretion with the results of its due diligence investigation with respect to the physical, financial and operational condition of each of the Facilities, which due diligence investigations shall have been completed by November 30, 2009 (October 13, 2009 through November 30, 2009 being referred to herein as the “Due Diligence Period”).
(d) It shall be a condition to Tenant’s obligations hereunder that it has secured the approval of its Board of Directors to the transaction contemplated herein prior to December 15, 2009.

R E C I T A L S:
WHEREAS, Secured Party, as Landlord, and Debtor, as Tenant, have entered into that certain Master Lease (as the same may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Master Lease”) dated October 13, 2009 whereunder Secured Party has leased to Debtor the Land, the improvements thereon, equipment, fixtures, furnishings and other property interests which comprise the eight senior living facilities listed on Schedule I, attached hereto and made a part hereof; and
WHEREAS, the Master Lease requires that Tenant pay Base Rent to Secured Party, Additional Charges and other amounts which may become due pursuant to the Master Lease or Capital Improvement Reserve Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Master Lease requires the Debtor, as Tenant, to grant a security interest to Secured Party in certain property of Debtor relating to or arising from the Facilities to secure the payment of Base Rent and other amounts and obligations of Debtor as Tenant; and
WHEREAS, Debtor is willing to grant the security interests created hereunder in favor of Secured Party as security for the Obligations, as defined.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:
10. Definitions. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement, including its preamble, recitals and exhibits, shall have the meanings set forth in the Master Lease. All
capitalized terms shall be equally applicable to the singular and plural forms thereof and to any gender form thereof.
11. Security Interest. As security for the repayment of the Obligations, Debtor hereby assigns and grants to Secured Party a security interest in and to all of Debtor’s rights in and to the property described on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference now existing or hereafter arising, and the proceeds thereof (collectively, the “Collateral”). The rights of Secured Party in the Collateral are limited to those of a secured party. The granting of security interests by Debtor hereunder in the Collateral shall not be deemed to be an assignment of a payment within the meaning of 42 U.S.C. §1395g or 42 U.S.C. §1396a (32).
12. Obligations. The security interest granted herein by Debtor secures and shall secure the payment of all (i) Base Rent and Additional Charges due or to become due under the Master Lease, (ii) all amounts due or to become due for the Cap Ex Account pursuant to the Capital Improvement Reserve Agreement and (iii) any and all other amounts for which Debtor is or may become liable to Secured Party arising in the course of performing or meeting any other obligation of Debtor under the Master Lease.
For purposes of this Agreement, all such obligations secured by the Collateral shall be referred to as “Obligations”.
13. Debtor’s Representations and Warranties to Secured Party. Debtor hereby represents and warrants to Secured Party that the following facts are true and correct as of the Effective Date:
(a) Debtor is the true and lawful owner of the Collateral;
(b) Debtor has a good right to grant a security interest in the Collateral and to execute this Agreement.
(c) No advances, liens, security interest or encumbrances exist against the Collateral except as granted to Secured Party hereunder.
14. Covenants to Secured Party. Debtor hereby covenants and agrees that until the Obligations shall have been performed and paid in full or unless Debtor shall have received the prior written consent of Secured Party:
(a) Debtor will keep the Collateral free from any adverse lien, security interest or encumbrance (other than the security interest granted herein) and in good order and repair and will not waste or impair or materially diminish the value of the Collateral or any part thereof; Debtor will not use the Collateral in violation of any of the Legal Requirements.
(b) Debtor will not sell or offer to sell or otherwise transfer, dispose of or encumber the Collateral, or any interest therein (i) for less than its reasonable fair market value other than sales in the normal course of operation for senior living communities, or (ii) in such manner as to materially diminish the value of the Collateral.
(c) Debtor will maintain insurance with respect to the Collateral as set forth in the Master Lease.
(d) Subject to Secured Party filing any necessary financing and continuation statements, Secured Party’s security interest in the Collateral is now and at all times hereafter shall be perfected and Secured Party shall have a lien having priority over any other liens on the Collateral granted by Debtor other than those liens, if any, permitted by the terms of the Master Lease.
(e) Secured Party (by any of its officers, employees and/or agents) shall have the right at any time or times during Debtor’s usual business hours, but subject to applicable laws governing the confidentiality of resident and employee records, to inspect the Collateral and all related records (and the premises upon which it is located) and all financial records and to verify the amount and condition of the Collateral or any other matter whether or not relating to the Collateral. After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all costs, fees and expenses incurred by Secured Party, or for which Secured Party has become obligated, in connection with such inspection and/or verification shall be payable immediately by Debtor to Secured Party.
(f) Subject to Debtor’s due contest right set forth in the Master Lease, Debtor agrees to pay all taxes, charges, transfer fees and assessments against the Collateral and to do all things necessary to preserve and maintain the value thereof and Debtor’s ability to collect its accounts.
(g) In its sole and absolute discretion without waiving or releasing any obligation, liability or duty of Debtor under this Agreement or the Master Lease, Secured Party may at any time or times hereafter, but shall be under no obligation to do so, pay, acquire and/or accept an assignment of any security interest, lien, encumbrance or claim asserted by a person against the Collateral if and to the extent such security interest, line, encumbrance or claim is not otherwise permitted by the terms of the Master Lease. All reasonable sums paid by Secured Party in respect thereof and all costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto incurred by Secured Party on account thereof shall be payable immediately by Debtor to Secured Party.
(h) Secured Party shall be required to file any financing or continuation statements required to perfect its security interest in the Collateral and upon expiration or earlier termination of the Lease and payment in full of the Obligations shall be required to file any termination statements with respect to all such financing/continuation statements; provided, however, in the event Secured Party fails to file a termination statement upon request of Debtor, Debtor shall be authorized to file the same on behalf of Secured Party. Upon request of Secured Party, Debtor will sign and execute alone or with Secured Party any financing statement or other document or procure any document and pay all necessary costs to protect the security interest under this Agreement against the interest of third Persons not otherwise permitted by the terms of the Master Lease. Debtor will pay the cost of filing the same in all public offices wherever filing is deemed by Secured Party to be necessary or desirable. Debtor further agrees to pay all costs and fees for filing any termination statements. In connection with the foregoing, it is agreed and understood between the parties hereto (and Secured Party is hereby authorized to

Secured Party shall be permitted to examine the Collateral and such records relating thereto. Debtor will furnish upon request all pertinent information regarding collateral. Debtor will transmit to Secured Party promptly all information that it may have or receive with respect to the Collateral that might in any way materially diminish the value of the Collateral or Secured Party’s rights or remedies with respect thereto. Debtor and Secured Party shall comply with all Privacy Standards relating to protected health information as provided in Section 22.4 of the Master Lease.
(k) If any documented security, certificate of title or similar document is, at any time and pursuant to the laws of any jurisdiction, issued or outstanding with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof , Debtor shall promptly advise Secured Party thereof, and Debtor shall promptly cause the interest of Secured Party to be properly noted thereon and Debtor will further promptly deliver to Secured Party any such certificate of title or similar document issued or outstanding at any time with respect to such Collateral. If any instruments, chattel paper, money or monies or documents are, at any time or times, included in the Collateral, whether as proceeds or otherwise, Debtor will promptly deliver the same to Secured Party upon demand therefore by Secured Party.
15. Special Representations, Warranties and Agreements with respect to Receivables. With respect to Receivables (as defined on Exhibit A hereto). Debtor represents warrants and agrees with Secured Party as follows:
(a) As of the time any Receivable becomes subject to Secured Party’s Security Interest, including, without limitation, as of each time any specific assignment or transfer or identification is made to Secured Party of any Receivable, Debtor shall be deemed to have warranted as to each and all of such Receivables that each Receivable and all papers and documents relating thereto are genuine and in all respects what they purport to be; that each Receivable is valid and subsisting and arises out of a bona fide sale of goods sold and delivered, or in the process of being delivered, or out of and for services theretofore actually rendered, to the debtor named in the Receivable (each a “Receivable Debtor”); that the amount of the Receivable represented as owing is the correct amount actually and unconditionally owing except for normal cash discounts, Medicaid overpayment recoupments occurring in the ordinary course of business and allowances for bad or doubtful accounts (referred to as contractual allowances with respect to Medicaid residents) established by Debtor in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals or applicable Medicaid reimbursement requirements, is not disputed, and except for such normal cash discounts is not subject to any setoffs, credits, deductions or counter-charges; that Debtor is the owner thereof,
free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and security interest of any nature whatsoever (except for the security interest of Secured Party hereunder); and that Debtor has no notice of or reason to believe that the Receivable Debtor is subject to any pending bankruptcy proceeding, insolvency proceeding or operations of any creditors committee.
(b) Debtor will hold in Debtor’s executive office, or such other location approved by Secured Party, and make available to Secured Party as requested, subject to applicable laws governing the confidentiality of resident records, so long as any Obligations remain unpaid, all of Debtor’s records containing any entries as to Receivables, including details of sale, delivery, payment and other material information and, subject to applicable laws governing the confidentiality of resident records, Secured Party shall at all reasonable times have full access to and the right to examine and audit Debtor’s books and records, and to make copies of pertinent portions thereof at Secured Party’s expenses, prior to the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default and at Debtor’s expense from and after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default.
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default and upon Secured Party’s request, Debtor will notify its Receivable Debtors to make payment of any or all Receivable or Receivables directly to Secured Party or to a bank designated by Secured Party, the deposits of which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, pursuant to an arrangement whereby said bank receives payments on Receivables for deposit into a collection account in Debtor’s name and thereafter transfers all collected amounts to a collateral account in Secured Party’s name. Any proceeds of Receivables so transmitted to Secured Party or to said bank may be deposited in a collateral account in the name of Secured Party and under its dominion and control pending their application to the Obligations, but Debtor acknowledges that the maintenance of such account is solely for convenience in administering the procedures established by this Section 6(c) and that Debtor has not and shall not have any right, title or interest in said account or in the amounts at any time to the credit thereof. All proceeds so received by Secured Party and or said bank shall be applied to the Obligations which by their terms are then due, such application to be made to such portions of the Obligations as Secured Party may determine in its sole discretion, with any excess amounts remitted by Secured Party or said bank to Debtor. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(c) and to the rights reserved to Secured Party elsewhere in this Agreement and prior to the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, Debtor shall have the right, at Debtor’s expense, to enforce, collect and receive all amounts owing on Receivables. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and upon receipt of a written demand from Secured Party, Debtor shall take such action to ensure that all checks and other forms of remittances received by Debtor on Receivables shall not be commingled with Debtor’s other property but shall be segregated, held by Debtor in trust for Secured Party as Secured Party’s exclusive property and immediately delivered by Debtor to Secured Party in the identical form as that in which received with proper endorsements. Debtor will accompany each such transmission of proceeds to Secured Party with a report in such form as Secured Party may require identifying the Receivables to which such proceeds apply. In the event any Receivable Debtor shall also be indebted to Debtor in any other respect and such Receivable Debtor shall make payment without designating the particular indebtedness against which it is to apply, such payment shall be conclusively presumed to be payment on the Receivable of such Receivable Debtor. In administering the collection of proceeds as herein provided, Secured Party or the bank
designated by it may accept checks or drafts in any amount and bearing any notation without incurring liability to Debtor for so doing.
16. Debtor’s Use of the Collateral. Prior to the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default and to the election by Secured Party to exercise its rights under the Master Lease to terminate Debtor’s right to possession of the Premises or to terminate the Master Lease as a result of such Event of Default, Debtor may use the Collateral in the ordinary course of Debtor’s business; provided, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and the election by Secured Party to exercise its rights under the Master Lease to terminate Debtor’s right to possession of the Premises or to terminate the Master Lease as a result of such Event of Default, Debtor’s right to so use the Collateral shall terminate until further notice from Secured Party.
17. Events of Default. The term “Event of Default”, whenever used in this Agreement, shall mean that occurrence of an Event of Default as defined in the Master Lease.
18. Remedies. In conjunction with the election by Secured Party to exercise its rights and remedies under the Master Lease to terminate Debtor’s right to possession of the Premises or to terminate the Master Lease upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default thereunder, Secured Party shall have the following remedies hereunder:
(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, at the option of Secured Party, Secured Party shall have and may exercise any or all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code, and as otherwise contractually granted herein under any applicable law or under any other agreement executed by Debtor in favor of Secured Party, including, without limitation, the right and power to sell, at public or private sale or sales, or otherwise dispose of or utilize such portion of the Collateral and any part or parts thereof in any manner authorized or permitted under the Code after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and to apply the proceeds thereof toward payment of any costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees and legal expenses thereby incurred by Secured Party and toward payment of the Obligations, from time to time, in such order or manner as Secured Party may elect in its sole discretion.
(b) As an essential part of the bargained-for consideration running to Secured Party, Debtor hereby expressly grants to Secured Party the contractual right to purchase any or all of the Collateral which is not already owned by Secured Party at any sale any time after ten (10) days’ notice of such sale shall have been sent to Debtor by Secured Party. Debtor agrees that if such notice of the sale is delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement at least ten (10) days before the time of the proposed sale or disposition, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and shall fully satisfy any requirement of giving notice, and the proposed sale may take place any time after such ten (10) day period without the necessity of sending another notice to Debtor. Secured Party may postpone and reschedule any proposed sale at its option without the necessity of giving Debtor further notice of such fact as long as the rescheduled sale occurs within sixty (6) days of the originally scheduled sale.
(c) The right of Secured Party to take possession or control of the Collateral upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default may be exercised
without resort to any court proceeding or judicial process whatever and without any hearing whatever thereon.
(d) All recitals in any instrument of assignment or any other document or paper executed by Secured Party incident to sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition or utilization of the Collateral or any part thereof hereunder shall be sufficient to establish full legal propriety of the sale or other action taken by Secured Party or of any fact condition or thing incident thereto, and all prerequisites of such sale or other action shall be presumed conclusively to have been performed or to have occurred.
(e) Upon disposition by Secured Party of any property in which Secured Party has a security interest granted hereunder, Debtor shall be and remain liable for any deficiency; and Secured Party shall account to Debtor for any surplus, but Secured Party shall have the right to apply all or any part of such surplus to (or to hold the same as a reserve against) all or any of the Obligations, whether or not they or any of them be then due, and in such order of application as Secured Party may from time to time elect.
(f) All right to marshalling of assets of Debtor, including any such right with respect to the Collateral, are hereby waived by Debtor.
(g) In addition to the foregoing provisions, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, and upon Secured Party’s demand, Debtor agrees to assemble the Collateral at its usual place of business and make same available to Secured Party immediately.
