(iv) Adjusted monthly rent for Fourth Thirty Month Period plus $2,400 = 30,600 + 2,400 = 33,000, which is greater than adjusted monthly rent for Fourth Thirty Month Period plus 1/2 Percentage Increase of Index: $30,600 + (5% x 30,600) = 32,130 (v) Adjusted monthly rent for Fifth Thirty Month Period plus 1/2 Percentage Increase of Index = 33,000 + (10% x 33,000) = 36,300, which is greater than adjusted monthly rent for Fifth Thirty Month Period plus $3,000: 33,000 + 3,000 = 36,000. 8 (g) The minimum monthly rent as adjusted pursuant to paragraph 4.2 is sometimes referred to herein as "basic rent" or the "Monthly Rent". 4.3.

Except as provided in paragraph 23.3 an involuntary assignment shall constitute a material default by TENANT under 40 this Lease, and LESSOR shall have the right to elect to terminate this Lease, in which case this Lease shall not be treated as an asset of TENANT. Such right to terminate this Lease shall be in addition to and cumulative with such other rights and remedies that LESSOR may have hereunder or as may now be or hereafter provided by law. 23.3. The death of both ROBERT SNUKAL and SHEILA SNUKAL and the transfer of their interest in this Lease by will or intestacy (except a transfer by the estate of one of them to the survivor of them) shall be an involuntary assignment of this Lease, but shall not be a default hereunder. In the event of the death of both ROBERT SNUKAL and SHEILA SNUKAL this Lease shall not be treated as an asset of such TENANTS and LESSOR shall have the right to elect to terminate this Lease within sixty (60) days after receipt by LESSOR of written notice of the death of both ROBERT SNUKAL and SHEILA SNUKAL without further liability by TENANTS. 24. DEFAULT ------- 24.1. TENANT'S Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall ---------------- constitute a default by TENANT: (a) Failure to pay rent, additional rent or any other sum or sums payable by TENANT hereunder when due, if the failure continues for three (3) days after notice has been given to TENANT. (b) Abandonment and vacation of the REAL PROPERTY or the PERSONAL PROPERTY. (c) Failure to perform any other provision of this Lease if the failure to perform is not cured within ten (10) 41 days after notice has been given to TENANT. Provided, that if the default is under Article 16.2 hereof and such default cannot reasonably be cured within ten (10) days, TENANT shall not be in default of this Lease if TENANT commences to the default within the ten (10) day period and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the default. 24.2. LESSOR'S Remedies. In the event of a default by TENANT under this Lease, LESSOR shall have the following remedies, these remedies are not exclusive; they are cumulative and are in addition to any remedies now or later allowed by law and in addition to any other rights and remedies of LESSOR under any provision of this Lease: (a) Re-Entry Without Termination. LESSOR shall have the immediate right of re-entry and may remove all persons and property from the REAL PROPERTY; such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the account of TENANT. (i) Should LESSOR elect to re-enter, as herein provided, or should he take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, LESSOR may either terminate this Lease or LESSOR may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, relet the REAL PROPERTY and/or the PERSONAL PROPERTY, or any part thereof, for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the term of this Lease) and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as LESSOR in his sole discretion may deem advisable with the right to make repairs to said REAL PROPERTY and PERSONAL PROPERTY; upon each such re-letting 42 (ii) TENANT shall be liable immediately to pay to LESSOR: (aa) All costs LESSOR incurs in reletting the LEASED PROPERTY, including, without limitation, broker's commissions, expenses of remodeling the LEASED PROPERTY required by the reletting, expenses of repairing the LEASED PROPERTY and like costs. Reletting can be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining terms of this Lease; and (bb) The amount, if any, by which the rent, additional rent and all other sums reserved in this Lease from the period of such re- letting (up to but not beyond the term of this Lease) exceeds the amount agreed to be paid as rent for the LEASED PROPERTY for such reletting, payable monthly; or (iii) At the option of LESSOR, rents received by such LESSOR from such reletting shall be applied: first, to the payment of any indebtedness, other than rent due hereunder from TENANT to LESSOR; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such reletting and of such repairs; third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder and the residue, if any, shall be held by LESSOR and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. (iv) If TENANT has been credited with any rent to be received by such reletting under this paragraph 24 and such rent shall not be promptly paid to LESSOR by the new tenant, or if such rentals received from such reletting under this paragraph 24.2 during any month be less than that to be paid during that month by TENANT hereunder, TENANT shall pay any such 43 deficiency to LESSOR. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. (v) No such re-entry or taking possession of said Premises by LESSOR shall be construed as an election on LESSOR'S part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to TENANT or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, LESSOR may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach and such re- entry by LESSOR. (b) Termination. LESSOR may terminate this Lease and TENANT'S ----------- right to possession of the LEASED PROPERTY, or any part thereof, at any time. No act by LESSOR other than giving written notice to TENANT shall terminate this Lease. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the LEASED PROPERTY, or the appointment of a receiver on LESSOR'S initiative to protect LESSOR'S interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of TENANT'S right to possession. On termination, LESSOR has the right to recover from TENANT: (i) The worth, at the time of the award of the unpaid rent that had been earned at the time of termination of this Lease; (ii) The worth, at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid rent that would have been earned after the date of termination of this Lease until the time of award exceeds the amount of the loss of rent that TENANT proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) The worth, at the time of the award, of 44 the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the loss of rent that TENANT proves could have been reasonably avoided; and (iv) Any other amount, and court costs, necessary to compensate LESSOR for all detriment proximately caused by TENANT'S default. (v) "The worth, at the time of the award," as used in subparagraph (b)(i) and (b)(ii) of this paragraph 24.2, is to be computed by allowing interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. "The worth, at the time of the award," as referred to in subparagraph (b) (iii) of this paragraph 24.2, is to be computed by discounting the amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award, plus one percent (1%). (c) Receiver. LESSOR shall have the right to have a receiver -------- appointed to collect rent and conduct TENANT'S business. If a receiver be appointed at the instance of LESSOR in any action against TENANT to take possession of said Premises and/or to collect the rents or profits derived therefrom, the receiver may, if it be necessary or convenient in order to collect such rents and profits, conduct the business of TENANT then being carried on at the REAL PROPERTY and may take possession of any personal property belonging to TENANT and used in the conduct of such business, and may use the same in conducting such business at the REAL PROPERTY without compensation of TENANT for such use. Neither the application for the appointment of such receiver, nor the appointment of such a receiver, shall be construed as an election on LESSOR,S part to 45 terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to TENANT. (d) Cure at TENANT'S Expense. LESSOR can cure any default at ------------------------ TENANT'S cost. If LESSOR at any time, by reason of TENANT'S default, pays any sum or does any act that requires the payment of any sum, the sum paid by LESSOR shall be due immediately from TENANT to LESSOR at the time the sum is paid, and if paid at a later date shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date the sum is paid by LESSOR until LESSOR is reimbursed by TENANT. The sum, together, with interest on it, shall be additional rent. 25. INTEREST ON UNPAID RENT OR OTHER SUMS DUE. ----------------------------------------- Rent or other sums due hereunder from TENANT to LESSOR, not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date due until paid. 26. LATE CHARGES AND OTHER COSTS ---------------------------- TENANT acknowledges that late payment by TENANT to LESSOR of rent will cause TENANT to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease. Such costs include, without limitation, such things as processing and accounting charges, late charges, foreclosure costs and other such costs that may be imposed on LESSOR by the terms of any encumbrance, or note secured by an encumbrance covering the LEASED PROPERTY or any part thereof. Therefore, if any installment of rent due from TENANT is not received by LESSOR when due, TENANT shall pay to LESSOR all obligations, losses, costs, or expenses charged to or incurred by LESSOR with respect to debts, charges, fees, permits, liens, expenses or encumbrances relating to the LEASED PROPERTY or any part thereof. Such sum 46 shall be paid within three (3) days after written notice given to TENANT by LESSOR. 27. LESSOR'S DEFAULT ---------------- Provided that TENANT has then paid all rent or other sums required to be paid by it and in the event any mortgagee or beneficiary of any note secured by deed of trust or mortgage, on the REAL PROPERTY or any part thereof shall commence foreclosure proceedings as a result of LESSOR'S wrongful failure to make any interest or principal payment due thereunder, then and in such event TENANT shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pay such sum as may be required to bring such indebtedness current and to pay any foreclosure costs in connection therewith, and to set off the amount so paid against the next ensuing installments of fixed rent due from TENANT to LESSOR. Thereafter, all such rent shall be paid directly to LESSOR. 28. CONDEMNATION ------------ 28.1. If any part of the REAL PROPERTY shall be taken or condemned for a public or quasi-public use, and a part thereof remains which is susceptible of occupation hereunder, this Lease shall, as to the part so taken, terminate as of the date title shall vest in the condemnor, and the rent payable hereunder shall be adjusted so that the TENANT shall be required to pay for the remainder of the term only such portion of such rent as the value of the part remaining after the condemnation bears to the value of the entire REAL PROPERTY at the date of condemnation; but in the event the remainder is so diminished so that the economic feasibility of operating the facility is unreasonably diminished as to TENANT, either LESSOR or TENANT shall have the option to 47 terminate this Lease as of the date when title to the part so condemned vests in the condemnor by written notice to the other within ten (10) days after title vests in the condemnor. 28.2. If all the Demised Premises, or such part thereof be taken or condemned so that there does not remain a portion susceptible for occupation hereunder, as hereinabove described, this Lease shall thereupon terminate. If a part or all of the REAL PROPERTY be taken or condemned, all compensation awarded upon such condemnation or taking which does not relate to TENANT'S personal property shall go to the LESSOR, and the TENANT shall have no claim thereto, and the TENANT hereby irrevocably assigns and transfers to the LESSOR any right to compensation or damages to which the TENANT may become entitled during the term hereof by reason of the condemnation of all, or a part of the REAL PROPERTY. 28.3. Each party waives the provisions of Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 allowing either party to petition the superior court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the REAL PROPERTY. 29. FINANCIAL STATEMENT OF TENANT ----------------------------- As a further condition to the execution of this Lease by LESSOR to TENANT, TENANT agrees that it shall submit to LESSOR or cause to be submitted to LESSOR, the most recent financial statement (not more than one year old) of the operation of TENANT or any person or entity holding under or through it, and of HOSPITAL FACILITY which shall be submitted within five (5) days after written request therefor given (a) after a default under the Lease, or (b) in connection with an attempt to finance or 48 refinance the LEASED PROPERTY or any part thereof by LESSOR.

HOLDING OVER ------------ Any holding over after the expiration of the term, or any extended term without the written consent of LESSOR, shall be construed to be a tenancy from month to month, at a monthly rental of a sum equal to fifty percent, (50%) greater than the highest monthly rent due at any time during the Lease and shall otherwise be on the terms and conditions herein specified, so far as applicable. 32. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE -------------------- 32.1. TENANT shall at any time upon not less than ten (10) days, prior written notice from LESSOR execute, acknowledge and deliver to LESSOR a statement in writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if 49 modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to TENANT'S knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of LESSOR hereunder, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the LEASED PROPERTY. 32.2. TENANT'S failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon TENANT (a) that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by LESSOR, (b) that there are no uncured defaults in LESSOR'S performance. 32.3 If LESSOR desires to finance or refinance the LEASED PROPERTY, or any part thereof, TENANT hereby agrees to deliver to any lender designated by LESSOR such financial statements of TENANT as may be reasonably required by such lender. Such statements shall include the past three (3) year's financial statements of TENANT. All such financial statements shall be received by LESSOR in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth. 33. SUBORDINATION ------------- 33.1. This Lease is and shall be subordinate to any encumbrance now of record or recorded after the date of this Lease affecting the REAL PROPERTY. Such subordination is effective without any further act of TENANT. TENANT shall from time to time on request from LESSOR execute and deliver any documents or instruments that may be required by a lender to 50 effectuate any subordination. If LESSOR fails to execute and deliver any such documents or instruments, TENANT irrevocably constitutes and appoints LESSOR as TENANT'S special attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver any such documents or instruments. 33.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 33, with respect to encumbrances recorded after the date of this Lease, LESSOR shall as a condition to such subordination obtain a written agreement from the lender under such encumbrance that provides substantially the following: "As long as TENANT performs its obligations under this Lease, no foreclosure of, deed given in lieu of foreclosure of, or sale under the encumbrance, and no steps or procedures taken under the encumbrance, shall affect TENANT,S rights under this LEASE." TENANT shall attorn to any purchaser at any foreclosure sale, or to any grantee or transferee designated in any deed given in lieu of foreclosure. TENANT shall execute the written agreement and any other documents required by the lender to accomplish the purposes of this Article. 34. COVENANT OF AUTHORITY AND QUIET POSSESSION LESSOR covenants and warrants ------------------------------------------ that LESSOR has full right and lawful authority to enter into this Lease for the full term aforesaid, and that subject to the terms of this Lease, TENANT upon full performance of each and every provision hereof shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the LEASED PROPERTY throughout the leased term and any extensions thereof, without any disturbance from the LESSOR or from any person claiming through the LESSOR. TENANT may at its own expense obtain a policy of leasehold title 51 insurance, which policy shall show that LESSOR is the owner of the REAL PROPERTY. 35. WAIVER ------ 35.1. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of LESSOR shall impair such a right or remedy or be construed as a waiver by LESSOR. 35.2. The receipt and acceptance by LESSOR of any rent or other sum due LESSOR hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any other breach or default by TENANT; it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular rent or other sum payable involved regardless of LESSOR'S knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent or other sum. 35.3. No act or conduct of LESSOR, including, without limitation, the acceptance of the keys to the REAL PROPERTY, shall constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the LEASED PROPERTY, or any part thereof, by TENANT before the expiration of the term. Only a notice from LESSOR to TENANT shall constitute acceptance of the surrender of the LEASED PROPERTY and accomplish a termination of the Lease. 35.4. LESSOR'S consent to or approval of any act by TENANT requiring LESSOR'S consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary LESSOR,S consent to or approval of any subsequent act by TENANT. 35.5. Any waiver by LESSOR of any default, or breach by TENANT must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other breach or default concerning the same or any other provision of the Lease. 52 36.

Provided, further, that if TENANT is delinquent in the payment of any rent, additional rent or other amount payable under this Lease or is in material breach or default under this Lease at any time after giving such notice, the Extended Term shall not commence and this Lease shall expire at the end of the initial term. 37.2. TENANT shall have no other right to extend the term of this Lease. 37.3. The Extended Term shall be on the same terms and conditions as the initial term of this Lease except that the minimum monthly rent and adjustments thereto for the extended term shall be payable in monthly installments determined in accordance with paragraphs 4.2(d) and (e) above. 53 38. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL TO PURCHASE LEASED PROPERTY -------------------------------------------------- Provided that TENANT is not then in breach or default under any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this LEASE and has not been in material breach or default on more than three (3) occasions during the term of this Lease, TENANT is hereby given and shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the LEASED PROPERTY (the Real Property described in EXHIBITS 1 and the Personal Property described in EXHIBIT 2) on the following terms and conditions: 38.1. In the event LESSOR receives a bona fide written offer to purchase all of the LEASED PROPERTY from a prospective purchaser, which bona fide offer LESSOR desires to accept, LESSOR shall give written notice thereof, together with full and complete copies of all such offers to TENANT. 38.2. Upon receipt of said written notice, TENANT shall have the option to purchase the LEASED PROPERTY for the price and upon the same terms and conditions as said bona fide offer, except as otherwise provided herein. 38.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, TENANT shall not have the right of first refusal or option to purchase the REAL PROPERTY in the event of a sale or transfer of the REAL PROPERTY or any part thereof among LESSOR, any partner of LESSOR, (hereinafter collectively, "Beneficial Owner(s)"), any other Beneficial owner, spouse of a Beneficial Owner, descendant of a Beneficial Owner, spouse of a descendant of a Beneficial Owner or any corporation, partnership or trust, the shares or beneficial interest of which is owned by any of the foregoing persons or entities. 38.4. Said option shall be exercised by: (i) giving written notice to LESSOR of such desire to exercise the option to purchase within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the written notice giving rise to the option, and (ii) the preparation and execution of the escrow instructions at City National Bank, Beverly Hills, by TENANT no later than ten (10) days after exercise of such option, which escrow instructions shall provide for closing thereof within the time specified in the offer of the bona fide purchaser or ninety (90) days after the giving of the original notice by LESSOR, whichever is later. The initial cash down payment required shall be the greater of the amount provided in the bona fide file offer or $100,000 and shall be deposited in escrow no later than five (5) working days after exercise of the option. 38.5. Said right of first refusal shall terminate as to all subsequent sales at the expiration of the term of this Lease, or upon the sooner termination of this Lease or TENANT'S right to possession hereunder. In the event the TENANT fails to exercise the option to purchase arising out of a bona fide written offer from a prospective purchaser, then LESSOR may thereupon sell the LEASED PROPERTY in accordance with the bona fide offer to purchase and upon such sale TENANT'S rights to purchase under this Article shall be terminated and be of no further force or effect for any further sale. Provided, however, that TENANT'S rights hereunder shall continue in effect if the original LESSOR does not consummate such sale. 38.6. If TENANT purchases the LEASED PROPERTY, this Lease shall terminate on the date title vests in TENANT. 38.7. The failure of TENANT to deposit the initial cash down payment required to be deposited pursuant to paragraph 38.4 after exercising an option to purchase the LEASED PROPERTY shall be a material non-curable default under this Lease. 38.8. PRIOR TO ENTERING INTO THIS LEASE, LESSOR AND TENANT HAVE BEEN CONCERNED WITH THE FACT THAT SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGES WILL BE SUFFERED BY LESSOR IN THE EVENT THAT TENANT FAILS TO CONSUMMATE A PURCHASE OF THE LEASED PROPERTY AFTER EXERCISING AN OPTION TO PURCHASE THE LEASED PROPERTY. WITH THE FLUCTUATION IN LAND VALUES, THE UNPREDICTABLE STATE OF THE ECONOMY AND OF GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS, THE FLUCTUATING MONEY MARKET FOR REAL ESTATE LOANS OF ALL TYPES AND OTHER FACTORS WHICH DIRECTLY EFFECT THE VALUE AND MARKETABILITY OF THE LEASED PROPERTY IT IS REALIZED BY THE PARTIES THAT IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND IMPRACTICABLE, IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE, TO ASCERTAIN WITH ANY DEGREE OF CERTAINTY THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES WHICH WOULD BE SUFFERED BY LESSOR IN THE EVENT OF TENANT,S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE LEASED PROPERTY AFTER EXERCISING AN OPTION TO PURCHASE THE LEASED PROPERTY UNDER THIS LEASE. THE PARTIES HAVING MADE DILIGENT BUT UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS TO ASCERTAIN THE ACTUAL COMPENSATORY DAMAGES LESSOR WOULD SUFFER IN THE EVENT OF TENANT,S BREACH, IT IS HEREBY AGREED THAT THE REASONABLE VALUE OF SAID DAMAGES IS THE SUM OF ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($100,000), AND IN THE EVENT OF TENANT'S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATION UNDER THIS LEASE TO PURCHASE THE LEASED PROPERTY AFTER EXERCISING AN OPTION THEREFORE UNDER THIS ARTICLE 38, LESSOR SHALL, AS ITS SOLE REMEDY, BE ENTITLED TO SUCH SUM AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SHALL BE LESSOR'S SOLE REMEDY IN THE EVENT OF TENANT'S BREACH HEREUNDER. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, LESSOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO SPECIFICALLY ENFORCE TENANT'S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE LEASED PROPERTY AFTER EXERCISING AN OPTION TO PURCHASE THE LEASED PROPERTY UNDER THIS ARTICLE 38.

For value received, Assignor hereby grants, transfers and assigns to LA BREA CONVALESCENT INVESTMENT! a partnership (Assignee") all rents, income, royalties, issues and profits due or to become due hereafter for the occupancy or use of the Property (such rents, royalties, issues and profits being hereinafter collectively called "Rents"). Assignor warrants that Assignor is the Tenant of the Property pursuant to a lease dated May 19, 1987 by and between Assignor, as Tenant and Assignee, as Lessor ("Lease"), that Assignor is the lawful owner of all Rents from Property now due or to become due from any lessee, sublessee, tenant, assignee, licensee or concessionaire of Assignor; that Assignor has the right to make this Assignment; that full title and right to receive all Rents, due or to become due, are vested in Assignee by reason of this Assignment; that property and Rents are free from any liens, encumbrances, claims or setoffs of every kind whatsoever and that no prior or other assignment of Rents has been given by Assignor. Assignor appoints Assignee its true, lawful and irrevocable attorney to demand, receive and enforce payment, to give receipts, releases and satisfactions, and to sue, either in the name of Assignor or in the name of Assignee, for all Rents. EXHIBIT "3" Page 1 of 3 Assignor Consents that without further notice and without releasing the liability of Assignor, Assignee may, at Assignee's discretion agree to give grace or indulgence in the collection of any such Rents and grant extensions of time for the payment of the same before, at or after maturity. Assignor agrees that Assignee may proceed against Assignor hereunder without joining any tenant or other party to the obligation to pay Rents covered hereunder; that cessation of the liability of any tenant or other party to pay Rents for any reason other than full payment shall not in any way affect the liability of Assignor under this Assignment. Assignee does not assume any of Assignor's obligations under Lease, any lease agreement, or tenancy, or any other agreement to pay any Rent assigned hereunder, and Assignor agrees (a) to keep and perform all obligations under such agreements or tenancies and to save Assignee harmless from the consequences of any failure to do so including reasonable counsel fees incurred by Assignee; and (b) to preserve the Property free and clear of liens and encumbrances. Assignor agrees that Assignor will not assign any interest in any lease agreement or tenancy or any other agreement to pay any Rent assigned hereunder; that notice of this Assignment may be given to any tenant, or party to any such agreement at any time at Assignee's option; and that, in the event any payment under such agreement or tenancy is made to Assignor, Assignor will promptly transmit such payment to Assignee in the same form as it is received by Assignor, except that Assignor will endorse to Assignee instruments which are payable to Assignor. Assignor agrees that, as long as this Assignment is in force, Assignor will give a copy of this Assignment to each and every lessee, tenant, or other person obligated to pay Rent as to Property during the term hereof and will secure the execution by each such lessee, tenant, or other person of an acknowledgment of this Assignment. Assignor agrees that Assignee shall be entitled to deduct and retain from any monies received by it hereunder for its services or that of any agents in collecting said monies a just and reasonable compensation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Assignment to the contrary, Assignee shall not collect any rents whatsoever, or exercise any of the other rights herein granted to Assignee, so long as Assignor is not in default in the payment of rent or property taxes under the terms of Lease. In the event, Assignor defaults in the performance of any of Assignor's obligations under, Lease, Assignee shall be free to pursue all of Assignee's rights under this Assignment in addition to such other rights of Assignor under Lease or as provided by law. EXHIBIT "3" Page 2 of 3 Notwithstanding any provision of this Assignment to the contrary, upon the happening of any default under Lease, Assignee may exercise each and all of the rights, remedies and powers herein granted, with or without demanding possession of the Property, and with or without commencing legal proceedings to recover possession of the Property. Failure of Assignee at any time or from time to time to enforce this Assignment shall not in any manner prevent its subsequent enforcement, such Assignee not being obligated to collect anything hereunder, but being accountable only for sums actually collected. This Assignment is irrevocable and shall remain in full force and effect until and unless there is payment in full of all obligations owned by Assignor to Assignee on the Property, including but not limited to Lease.

AIB is a party to a Stock Purchase and Contribution Agreement (the "Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement at the time of closing, ownership of 100% of AIB's capital stock will be transferred (the "Transfer") to Fountain View Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Holdings"), which will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fountain View, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Fountain View"). In addition, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, we will assign our interests in the Lease to AIB (together with the Transfer, the "Assignment"). Immediately after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, my wife and myself will retain voting and operational control of AIB, we will control the Board of Directors of Fountain View by electing three of the five proposed Directors of Fountain View, and we will continue to lead AIB's management team, and Robert Snukal will continue as the Chief Executive Officer of AIB Corp., Holdings, and Fountain View. The Board of Directors shall be comprised of myself, my wife, and a third individual to be nominated by us; the other two seats on the Board of Directors will be nominees of Heritage Fund II Investment Corporation. Further, my wife and I will retain voting control of 50.1% of the common stock of Fountain View, Inc.

In addition to the Lease for the Leased Property located at 505 North La Brea Avenue, Los Angeles, California, ("505 Lease") Lessees Robert Snukal and Sheila Snukal, and their affiliate, B.I.A., are also the Lessees under a lease from Lessor of the adjoining and connected Leased Property commonly known as 515 North La Brea, Los Angeles, California ("515 Lease"). The "Leased Property" under each of these two leases are together referred to herein as the "Leased Properties". Lessee agrees that because of the nature, physical configuration and other factors affecting the Leased Properties and the businesses thereon, the Leased Properties are not severable from each other for purposes of the 505 Lease and the 515 Lease ("Leases"); and it is and has always been the intention of Lessor and the Lessee under each of the Leases that the Lessee under any one of the Leases shall not have the right under any circumstances whatsoever to terminate or reject, including a rejection under the Bankruptcy code, any one of the Leases, without concurrently terminating or rejecting the other one of the Leases, and in the event one of the Leases shall be terminated or rejected by Lessee, it shall constitute a default under the other Lease. B. Lessee may not exercise the right of first refusal under paragraph 38 of the 505 Lease, unless Lessee simultaneously exercises the right of first refusal under paragraph 38 of the 515 Lease. We therefore would appreciate you executing this Consent, Agreement, and Acknowledgement with respect to the following: 1.
