NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1—ORGANIZATION
ElderTrust Operating Limited Partnership (together with its subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated or except where the context otherwise requires, “we,” “us,” “our” or “ETOP”) is a limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 30, 1997. We invest in seniors housing and other healthcare-related properties, primarily assisted and independent living communities, skilled nursing facilities and medical and other office buildings. ElderTrust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (“ElderTrust”), is our sole general partner. ElderTrust is a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Ventas, Inc. (“Ventas”), a healthcare real estate investment trust whose common stock is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
As of June 30, 2008, our real estate portfolio consisted of seventeen assets located in three states: nine seniors housing communities, five skilled nursing facilities, two medical office buildings and a financial office building. With the exception of our medical office buildings, we lease these properties to third-party healthcare providers, generally under “triple-net” or “absolute-net” leases, which require the tenants to pay all property-related expenses.
NOTE 2—ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the Securities and Exchange Commission instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management of our general partner, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period have been included. Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 are not necessarily an indication of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2007 has been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
On January 1, 2008, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value and provides guidance for measuring fair value and the necessary disclosures. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The adoption did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement and should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within levels one and two of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within level three of the hierarchy).
Level one inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Level two inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in level one that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level two inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, other than quoted prices, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level three inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
We currently have no financial instruments requiring fair value measurement.

NOTE 3—CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
As of June 30, 2008, approximately 53.4% and 35.1% of our real estate properties, based on gross book value, were leased to or managed by FC-GEN Acquisition, Inc., parent company of Genesis HealthCare Corporation (“Genesis”), and Benchmark Assisted Living, LLC (“Benchmark”), respectively. Approximately 49.9% and 30.4% of our total rental revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were derived from leases with Genesis and Benchmark, respectively.
Because Genesis and Benchmark lease a substantial portion of our properties and they are the primary sources of our revenues, their financial condition and ability and willingness to satisfy their obligations under their respective leases with us have a significant impact on our financial results and our ability to service our indebtedness and to make distributions to our partners. We cannot assure you that Genesis or Benchmark will have sufficient assets, income and access to financing to enable it to satisfy its obligations under its respective leases with us, and any inability or unwillingness on its part to do so would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity, on our ability to service our indebtedness and on our ability to make distributions to our partners.
NOTE 4—DISPOSITIONS
In April 2008, we received notice from a tenant of its intention to exercise its option to purchase four seniors housing communities from us pursuant to the terms of its lease with us. These seniors housing communities had an aggregate net real estate investment value of $47.2 million and debt of $39.4 million as of June 30, 2008 and provide current annual rent of approximately $5.1 million. While there can be no assurances that the sale will actually occur, if it does occur, it is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2009. We expect to record a gain on the sale.
The operations for these assets have not been reported as discontinued operations for the three- or six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 because they do not yet meet all of the held for sale criteria under SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”
NOTE 5—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In accordance with our Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended, Ventas uses an allocation method for its general, administrative and professional fees and charges these fees to us on a quarterly basis. This allocation method is based on our rental income in relation to the consolidated rental income of Ventas. We also incur other direct expenses, which are expensed at the time incurred. Approximately 99.7% and 90.2% of our consolidated general, administrative and professional fees for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, related to this allocation.
NOTE 6—NOTE PAYABLE TO AFFILIATE
In April 2004, we entered into a promissory note in the amount of $7.5 million with Ventas Realty, Limited Partnership (“Ventas Realty”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Ventas. Under the terms of the note, we pay interest quarterly at an annual rate of 8.0%. The note has a maturity date of December 31, 2013, at which time a principal balloon payment equal to the full amount of the note is due. As of June 30, 2008, the note had an outstanding balance of $7.5 million. Accrued interest related to this note was approximately $150,000 as of June 30, 2008.
NOTE 7—CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING INFORMATION
We and certain of our direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (the “ETOP Subsidiary Guarantors”) have provided full and unconditional guarantees, on a joint and several basis with Ventas and certain of Ventas’s direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, of the obligation to pay principal and interest with respect to the outstanding senior notes of Ventas Realty and Ventas Capital Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ventas Realty. In addition, we and the ETOP Subsidiary Guarantors have fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several bases with certain of Ventas’s direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, the obligation to pay principal and interest with respect to Ventas’s outstanding convertible senior notes. The aggregate principal amount of senior notes and convertible senior notes outstanding as of June 30, 2008 was $1.5 billion. Certain of our other subsidiaries (the “ETOP Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”) have not provided the guarantee of the senior notes or the convertible senior notes and therefore are not directly obligated with respect to the notes.
Contractual and legal restrictions, including those contained in the instruments governing certain of the ETOP Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries’ outstanding indebtedness, may, under certain circumstances restrict our ability to obtain cash from the ETOP Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries for the purpose of satisfying our debt service obligations, including our guarantee of payment of principal and interest on the senior notes and convertible senior notes. Certain of the ETOP Subsidiary Guarantors’ properties are subject to mortgages.

| ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Unless otherwise indicated or except where the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “us,” “our” and “ETOP” and other similar terms in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to ElderTrust Operating Limited Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements regarding our expected future financial position, results of operations, cash flows, financing plans, business strategy, budgets, projected costs, capital expenditures, competitive positions, growth opportunities, expected lease income, plans and objectives of management for future operations and statements that include words such as “anticipate,” “if,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “will” and other similar expressions are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and security holders must recognize that actual results may differ from our expectations. We do not undertake a duty to update these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made.
Our actual future results and trends may differ materially depending on a variety of factors discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Factors that may affect our plans or results include without limitation:
| • | the ability and willingness of our operators and tenants, including FC-GEN Acquisition, Inc., parent company of Genesis HealthCare Corporation (“Genesis”), and Benchmark Assisted Living, LLC (“Benchmark”), to meet and/or perform the obligations under their various contractual arrangements with us; |
| • | the ability of our operators and tenants to maintain the financial strength and liquidity necessary to satisfy their respective obligations and liabilities to third parties, including without limitation obligations under their existing credit facilities; |
| • | the nature and extent of future competition; |
| • | the extent of future or pending healthcare reform and regulation, including cost containment measures and changes in reimbursement policies, procedures and rates; |
| • | increases in our cost of borrowing; |
| • | the ability of our operators and tenants to deliver high quality services and to attract residents and patients; |
| • | the results of litigation affecting us; |
| • | changes in general economic conditions and/or economic conditions in the markets in which we may, from time to time, compete; |
| • | our ability to pay down, refinance, restructure and/or extend our indebtedness as it becomes due; |
| • | the ability and willingness of our tenants to renew their leases with us upon expiration of the leases and our ability to relet our properties on the same or better terms in the event such leases expire and are not renewed by the existing tenants; and |
| • | the impact on the liquidity, financial condition and results of operations of our operators and tenants resulting from increased operating costs and uninsured liabilities for professional liability claims, and the ability of our operators and tenants to accurately estimate the magnitude of these liabilities. |
Many of these factors are beyond our control and the control of our management.
General
We are a limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of Delaware. We invest in seniors housing and healthcare-related properties, primarily assisted and independent living communities, skilled nursing facilities and medical and other office buildings. ElderTrust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (“ElderTrust”), is our sole general partner. ElderTrust is a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Ventas, Inc. (“Ventas”), a healthcare real estate investment trust, whose common stock is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
As of June 30, 2008, our real estate portfolio consisted of seventeen assets located in three states: nine seniors housing communities, five skilled nursing facilities, two medical office buildings and a financial office building. With the exception of our medical office buildings, we lease these properties to third-party healthcare providers, generally under “triple-net” or “absolute-net” leases, which require the tenants to pay all property-related expenses.

Table of Contents
As of June 30, 2008, approximately 53.4% and 35.1% of our properties, based on gross book value, were operated by Genesis and Benchmark, respectively. Approximately 49.9% and 30.4% of our total rental income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were derived from leases with Genesis and Benchmark, respectively. Because Genesis and Benchmark lease a substantial portion of our properties and they are the primary sources of our total revenues, their financial condition and ability and willingness to satisfy their obligations under their respective leases with us have a significant impact on our financial results and our ability to service our indebtedness and to make distributions to our partners. We cannot assure you that Genesis or Benchmark will have sufficient assets, income and access to financing to enable it to satisfy its obligations under its respective leases with us, and any inability or unwillingness on its part to do so would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity, on our ability to service our indebtedness and on our ability to make distributions to our partners (a “Material Adverse Effect”).
Recent Developments Regarding Dispositions
In April 2008, we received notice from a tenant of its intention to exercise its option to purchase four seniors housing communities from us pursuant to the terms of its lease with us. These seniors housing communities had an aggregate net real estate investment value of $47.2 million and debt of $39.4 million as of June 30, 2008 and provide current annual rent of approximately $5.1 million. While there can be no assurances that the sale will actually occur, if it does occur, it is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2009. We expect to record a gain on the sale.
Recent Developments Regarding Government Regulation
Medicare Reimbursement; Skilled Nursing Facilities
On July 15, 2008, Congress passed, over a Presidential veto, the Medicare Improvements for Patients & Providers Act of 2008 (“MIPPA”). Among other things, the MIPPA granted an eighteen-month extension of the Medicare Part B outpatient therapy cap exceptions process which expired on June 30, 2008. The Part B therapy cap exceptions process was created by Congress in the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (“DRA”) and became effective starting January 1, 2006. The DRA requires CMS to adjust the caps annually and to implement an exception process for reviewing and paying medically necessary therapy claims in excess of the annual cap. The exception process, which was originally set to expire January 1, 2007, has been extended numerous times by Congress prior to being extended again pursuant to the MIPPA.
On July 31, 2008, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) put on public display its final rule updating the prospective payment system and consolidated billing for skilled nursing facilities (SNF PPS) for the 2009 federal fiscal year (October 1, 2008 through September 30, 2009). The final rule, among other things, updates the Medicare payment rate to skilled nursing facilities for the 2009 federal fiscal year by increasing the market basket by 3.4%. The final rule also delays a proposed recalibration of the case-mix indices for the resource utilization groups (RUGs) used to determine the daily payment for beneficiaries in skilled nursing facilities. The proposed recalibration was intended to revise the RUG payment rates to more accurately reflect the needs of patients and would have reduced payments to skilled nursing facilities by an estimated 3.3% in federal fiscal year 2009. CMS has indicated it will continue to evaluate the underlying data carefully for possible future adjustments. CMS estimates that, as a result of the market basket increase, payments to skilled nursing facilities will increase by $780 million in fiscal year 2009.
We cannot assure you that future updates to SNF PPS or Medicare reimbursement for skilled nursing facilities will not materially adversely impact our operators, which, in turn, could have a Material Adverse Effect on us.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and judgments about future events that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and the related disclosures. We base estimates on our experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions or other matters had been different, it is possible that different accounting would have been applied, resulting in a different presentation of our financial statements. From time to time, we re-evaluate our estimates and assumptions. In the event estimates or assumptions prove to be different from actual results, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current estimates and assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 for further information regarding significant accounting policies.

Results of Operations
There was no material change in our revenues or expenses for the three or six months ended June 30, 2008 from the comparable periods in 2007.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the six months ended June 30, 2008, our principal source of liquidity was cash flows from operations. We anticipate that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our business operations and distributions to unit holders for the foreseeable future. Capital requirements for acquisitions, if any, may require funding from borrowings, assumption of debt from the seller, issuance of secured or unsecured long-term debt or other securities or capital contributions by Ventas.
We had restricted cash of $7.6 million as of June 30, 2008. Restricted cash primarily consists of amounts held by us or our lenders to provide for future real estate tax and insurance expenditures and tenant improvements. Restricted cash also represents amounts held by us as security deposits from our tenants and cash restricted due to certain mortgage financing requirements on certain properties.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
Net cash used in financing activities was $3.7 million and $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The uses consisted of repayment of debt and cash distributions to unit holders.
| ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We receive revenue primarily by leasing our assets under long-term triple-net leases in which the rental rate is generally fixed with annual escalators, subject to certain limitations. Our intercompany note payable and substantially all of our mortgage indebtedness bear interest at fixed rates. We do not utilize interest rate swaps or any other type of derivative financial instruments to mitigate interest rate risk.
For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair market value of the underlying indebtedness, but not earnings or cash flows. We generally cannot prepay fixed rate debt prior to maturity without premium. Therefore, interest rate risk and changes in fair market value should not have a significant impact on our fixed rate debt until we are required to refinance such debt.
To highlight the sensitivity of our fixed rate debt to changes in interest rates, the following summary shows the effects of a hypothetical instantaneous change of 100 basis points (BPS) in interest rates as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007:
| As of June 30, 2008 | As of December 31, 2007 | |||||
| (In thousands) | ||||||
Book value | $ | 70,605 | $ | 71,391 | ||
Fair value | 68,076 | 72,952 | ||||
Fair value reflecting change in interest rates: | ||||||
-100 BPS | 70,643 | 76,132 | ||||
+100 BPS | 65,863 | 70,106 | ||||
The fair market value of our fixed rate debt is based on current interest rates at which we could obtain similar borrowings. These sensitivity analyses are limited in that they were performed at a particular point in time and are subject to the accuracy of the various assumptions used.
We may borrow additional money with variable interest rates in the future. Increases in interest rates, therefore, would result in increases in interest expense, which could adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to pay our obligations.

| ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of ElderTrust, our general partner, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2008. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of ElderTrust, our general partner, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of June 30, 2008, at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the second quarter of 2008, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
Beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2009, we will be required to provide an auditor’s attestation report on internal control over financial reporting. Although we believe that our efforts to document, evaluate the design and test the effectiveness of our internal controls will enable our independent auditors to provide the required attestation as described above, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successfully completed in a timely manner.
