     SECTION 2. ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CLAIMS AND PRIORITY TAX CLAIMS

            2.1. Administrative Expense Claims.

            Except to the extent that a holder of an Allowed Administrative
Expense Claim agrees to a different treatment, the Debtors shall pay to each
holder of an Allowed Administrative Expense Claim Cash in an amount equal to
such Claim on, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, the later of
the Effective Date and the first Business Day after the date that is thirty (30)
calendar days after the date such Administrative Expense Claim becomes an
Allowed Administrative Expense Claim; provided, however, that Allowed
Administrative Expense Claims representing liabilities incurred in the ordinary
course of business by the Debtors, as debtors in possession, or liabilities
arising under loans or advances to or other obligations incurred by the Debtors,
as debtors in possession, whether or not incurred in the ordinary course of
business, shall be paid by the Debtors in the ordinary course of business,
consistent with past practice and in accordance with the terms and subject to
the conditions of any agreements governing, instruments evidencing, or other
documents relating to such transactions; and provided further, however, that the
liabilities of Genesis and Multicare under the Revolving Credit and Guaranty

Section.

            2.2. Compensation and Reimbursement Claims.

allowed by the Bankruptcy Court (A) upon the later of (i) the Effective Date,
and (ii) the date upon which the order relating to any such Administrative
Expense Claim is entered, or (B) upon such other terms as may be mutually agreed
upon between the holder of such an Administrative Expense Claim and the Debtors
or, on and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors. The Reorganized
Debtors are authorized to pay compensation for services rendered or
reimbursement of expenses incurred after the Confirmation Date and until the
Effective Date in the ordinary course and without the need for Bankruptcy Court
approval.

            2.3. Priority Tax Claims.

            Except to the extent that a holder of an Allowed Priority Tax Claim
agrees to a different treatment, each holder of an Allowed Priority Tax Claim
shall receive, at the sole option of the Debtors, (i) Cash in an amount equal to
such Allowed Priority Tax Claim on, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably
practicable, the later of the Effective Date and the first Business Day after
the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the date such Priority Tax
Claim becomes an Allowed Priority Tax Claim, or (ii) equal annual Cash payments
in an aggregate amount equal to such Allowed Priority Tax Claim, together with
interest at a fixed annual rate equal to eight percent (8%), over a period not
exceeding six (6) years after the date of assessment of such Allowed Priority

before the Effective Date shall be paid in the ordinary course of business as
such obligations become due.

            2.4. DIP Credit Agreement Claims.

            On the Effective Date, (i) Genesis shall pay or arrange for the
payment of all amounts outstanding under that certain Revolving Credit and
Guaranty Agreement, dated as of June 22, 2000, as amended, among Genesis,
certain other Genesis Debtors named therein, Mellon Bank N.A., as

                                       9




administrative agent, certain co-agents named therein, and the lenders party
thereto, and (ii) Multicare shall pay or arrange for payment of all amounts
outstanding under that certain Revolving Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as
of June 22, 2000, as amended, among Multicare, certain other Multicare Debtors
named therein, Mellon Bank N.A., as administrative agent, certain co-agents
named therein, and the lenders party thereto. Once such payments have been made,
these agreements and any agreements or instruments related thereto shall be
deemed terminated (subject in all respects to any carve-out approved by the
Bankruptcy Court in the Bankruptcy Court orders approving the Revolving Credit
and Guaranty Agreements on a final basis), and Mellon Bank, N.A., as
administrative agent, and the lenders thereunder shall take all reasonable
action to confirm the removal of any liens on the properties of the Genesis
Debtors and the Multicare Debtors securing such Revolving Credit and Guaranty
Agreements. On the Effective Date, any outstanding letters of credit issued
under such agreements shall be either replaced or secured by letters of credit
issued under the exit facility described in Section 5.4 hereof.

            2.5. Special Provisions Regarding the Indenture Trustees' Fees and
Expenses.

            (a) The reasonable fees and expenses of each trustee under an
Indenture described in Sections 1.37 and 1.50 hereof (an "Indenture Trustee")
(which includes the reasonable fees and expenses of any professionals retained
by the Indenture Trustees), shall be paid in accordance with the procedures
established in this Section 2.5. Provided that such fees and expenses are paid
in Cash in full by Genesis or Reorganized Genesis, distributions received by
holders of Allowed Genesis Senior Subordinated Note Claims and Allowed Multicare
Senior Subordinated Note Claims pursuant to this Plan will not be reduced on
account of the payment of any Indenture Trustee's fees and expenses.

            (b) Ten (10) days prior to the Effective Date, each Indenture
Trustee will submit to Genesis appropriate documentation in support of the fees
and expenses incurred by such Indenture Trustee through that date (including any
estimated fees and expenses through the Effective Date), whether incurred prior
to or subsequent to the Commencement Date, together with a detailed, reasonable
estimate of any fees and expenses to be incurred thereafter. Such estimate may
include, without limitation, projected fees and expenses relating to surrender
and cancellation of notes, distribution of securities, and fees and expenses to
be incurred in respect of any challenge to the claims asserted by the Indenture
Trustee, whether based on the notes or the claimed amount of such fees and
expenses. On or prior to the Effective Date, Genesis will pay the undisputed
amount of each Indenture Trustee's fees and expenses.

            (c) No later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, or as
soon thereafter as may be practical, each Indenture Trustee will deliver to
Reorganized Genesis a final invoice for its reasonable fees and expenses
incurred through the Effective Date. Reorganized Genesis will have a period of
thirty (30) days after receipt to review the final invoice and provide the
Indenture Trustee with any objection to the final invoice, stating with
specificity its objections to particular charges. If no objection is received by
the Indenture Trustee within thirty (30) days after the Indenture Trustee
provided Reorganized Genesis with its final invoice, then the Indenture Trustee
shall be paid such amount without the need for any further approval of the
Bankruptcy Court. If Reorganized Genesis timely advises the Indenture Trustee in
writing that it objects to all or a portion of such fees, which objection states
with specificity its objection to particular charges, (i) Reorganized Genesis
shall pay the undisputed portion of the fees and expenses, and (ii) such
Indenture Trustee, at its option, may either submit the disputed portion to the
Bankruptcy Court for resolution or exercise its rights under its respective
indenture. The Indenture Trustee will not be required to file a fee application
or to comply with guidelines and rules applicable to a fee application, and will
not be subject to section 330 or 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

            (d) Subject to Section 5.11 hereof, each Indenture Trustee's
charging lien will be discharged solely upon payment in full of such fees and
expenses and termination of the Indenture Trustee's duties. Accordingly, nothing
herein shall be deemed to impair, waive, or discharge the

                                       10




Indenture Trustee charging lien for any fees and expenses not paid by
Reorganized Genesis. Pursuant to Section 6.5(b) hereof, each Indenture Trustee
shall be entitled to its fees and expenses incurred after the Effective Date as
a Disbursing Agent.

     SECTION 4. TREATMENT OF CLAIMS AND EQUITY INTERESTS

            4.1. Genesis Other Secured Claims (Class G1).

            Except for the Genesis Other Secured Claims in Subclasses G1-8 and
G1-12, the treatment of which is set forth below, on or as soon as reasonably
practicable after the later of the Effective Date and the first Business Day
after the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the date a Genesis Other
Secured Claim becomes Allowed, each holder of an Allowed Genesis Other Secured
Claim shall receive, at the option of the Reorganized Debtors, either (i) Cash
in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the unpaid amount of such
Allowed Genesis Other Secured Claim, (ii) the proceeds of the sale or
disposition of the Collateral securing such Allowed Genesis Other Secured Claim
to the extent of the value of the holder's secured interest in the Allowed
Genesis Other Secured Claim, (iii) the Collateral securing such Allowed Genesis
Other Secured Claim, (iv) a note with periodic Cash payments having a present
value equal to the amount of the Allowed Genesis Other Secured Claim, (v) such
treatment that leaves unaltered the legal, equitable, and contractual rights to
which the holder of such Allowed Genesis Other Secured Claim is entitled, or
(vi) such other distribution as necessary to satisfy the requirements of the
Bankruptcy Code. In the event the Reorganized Debtors treat a Claim under

                                       14




clause (i) or (ii) of this Section, the liens securing such Genesis Other
Secured Claim shall be deemed released. In particular, the following subclasses
shall receive the treatment described below.

            (a) Subclass G1-8. As of the Effective Date, the Genesis Debtors'
obligations in connection with the Kresson View Center Bonds shall be reinstated
and each and every indenture, loan agreement, mortgage, security agreement,
guaranty, subordination agreement, and other document executed in connection
with the Kresson View Center Bonds, including, without limitation, the Kresson
View Center Guaranty and the Subordination Agreement dated May 1, 1990 executed
by Mellon Bank N.A., as agent, in favor of NJEDA (all of the foregoing, together
with the Kresson View Center Bonds, the "Kresson View Center Bond Documents"),
shall be reinstated. All legal, equitable, and contractual rights under the
Kresson View Center Bond Documents and the Kresson View Center Bonds shall
remain unaltered after confirmation of the Plan. To the extent necessary to
reinstate all such obligations, rights, agreements, and documents, the Genesis
Debtors shall execute and obtain such replacement agreements and documents,
including, without limitation, a guaranty, subordination agreements, and UCC
financing statements, each in form and substance materially identical to
existing agreements and documents, as SunTrust may require. As of the Effective
Date, the maturity date of the Kresson View Center Bonds shall be reinstated. On
the Effective Date, the Genesis Debtors shall cure any default under the Kresson
View Center Bonds and the Kresson View Center Bond Documents (including, without
limitation, past due payments of principal), and shall reimburse SunTrust for
all reasonable fees, costs, and expenses, including legal fees and expenses,
which have accrued and are required to be paid under the relevant Kresson View
Center Bond Documents.

            (b) Subclass G1-12. Upon confirmation of the Plan, the claim of U.S.
Bank Trust National Association ("U.S. Bank"), as successor indenture trustee
pursuant to the Indenture of Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of September
1, 1992 (the "U.S. Bank Indenture"), shall be deemed an Allowed Genesis Other
Secured Claim in the principal amount of $19,337,000, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, fees, and other costs. The Plan shall leave unaltered the legal,
equitable, and contractual rights to which the holders of Claims in Subclass
G1-12 are entitled, and the Allowed Claim of U.S. Bank in Subclass G1-12 shall
be unimpaired under the Plan. In satisfaction of their Allowed Subclass G1-12
Claim, members of Subclass G1-12 shall receive, on or before the Effective Date,
(i) all accrued and unpaid interest due under the 9 1/4% First Mortgage Bonds
(Series A) due 2007 in the original principal amount of $25,000,000 (the
"Bradford Bonds"), whether incurred prior to or after the Commencement Date,
together with interest on interest, pursuant to the terms of the U.S. Bank
Indenture, and (ii) all indenture trustee fees and expenses due under the U.S.
Bank Indenture, including reasonable attorneys' fees, whether incurred prior to
or after the Commencement Date. U.S. Bank shall submit to the Genesis Debtors an
itemization of the amounts due and owing under the U.S. Bank Indenture ten (10)
days prior to the Effective Date. From and after the Effective Date, all
documents relating to the Bradford Bonds, including, but not limited to, the
U.S. Bank Indenture, the mortgages securing repayment of the Bradford Bonds, and
the bond instruments shall be deemed reinstated in their entirety. In connection
with such reinstatement and as a result of the Genesis Debtors' failure to
redeem the Bradford Bonds in April 2001, any holder of a Bradford Bond shall
have the right for sixty (60) days following the Effective Date to present such
Bradford Bonds for redemption in accordance with Article 9 of the U.S. Bank
Indenture. Thereafter, the deadline to present the Bradford Bonds for redemption
shall be governed by the applicable provisions of the Indenture. All rights and
liens of U.S. Bank, as indenture trustee, shall survive to the same extent,
validity, and priority as existed prior to the Commencement Date. Among other
things, all of the mortgages securing repayment of the Bradford Bonds shall
continue to be valid and perfected, and no further notice, filing, or other act
shall be required to effect such perfection.

            (c) Subclass G1-17. The holders of claims in Subclass G1-17 shall
receive a mortgage note in the principal amount of $50,000,000. The mortgage
note will bear interest at LIBOR plus 5% and will mature on the sixth
anniversary of the Effective Date. The mortgage note will be

                                       15




secured by (i) the Collateral presently securing the Claims in this subclass and
(ii) a lien of equal priority with the New Senior Notes on the property securing
such notes. The mortgage documents will permit a junior lien on the property
securing the Claims in this subclass in favor of the New Senior Notes.

            4.2. Genesis Senior Lender Claims (Class G2).

            Holders of the Genesis Senior Lender Claims shall receive an
aggregate of (i) Cash in an amount equal to interest on the Genesis Senior
Lender Claims at contractual, nondefault rates, from the Commencement Date to
the Effective Date (approximately $195,979,000 of which will have already been
paid by the Genesis Debtors by June 30, 2001, in connection with certain cash
collateral stipulations), (ii) $94,923,000 in New Senior Notes, (iii) New
Convertible Preferred Stock with an aggregate liquidation preference of
$31,000,000, and (iv) 30,485,079 shares of New Common Stock, representing
approximately 74.35% of the total shares of New Common Stock to be issued and
outstanding as of the Effective Date, subject to dilution from stock issuances
occurring after the Effective Date, including, without limitation, in connection
with the conversion of the New Convertible Preferred Stock, the exercise of the
New Warrants, or options granted under the New Management Incentive Plan.

            4.3. Genesis Priority Non-Tax Claims (Class G3).

            Except to the extent that a holder of an Allowed Genesis Priority
Non-Tax Claim against any of the Genesis Debtors has agreed to a different
treatment of such Claim, each such holder shall receive, in full satisfaction of
such Claim, Cash in an amount equal to such Claim, on or as soon as reasonably
practicable after the later of (i) the Effective Date, (ii) the date such Claim
becomes Allowed, and (iii) the date for payment provided by any agreement or
understanding between the parties.

            4.4. Genesis General Unsecured Claims (Class G4).

            Except to the extent that an Allowed Genesis General Unsecured Claim
is an Insured Claim, the holders of Allowed Genesis General Unsecured Claims
shall receive a proportionate allocation of (i) 1,689,147 shares of New Common
Stock and (ii) New Warrants to purchase 2,835,645 shares of New Common Stock,
based on the aggregate amount of Allowed Claims in Classes G4 and G5. The shares
of New Common Stock allocated to Classes G4 and G5 represent approximately 4.12%
of the total shares of New Common Stock to be issued and outstanding on the
Effective Date, subject to dilution from stock issuances occurring after the
Effective Date, including, without limitation, in connection with the conversion
of the New Convertible Preferred Stock, the exercise of the New Warrants, or
options granted under the New Management Incentive Plan. Each holder of an
Allowed Genesis General Unsecured Claim shall receive its Ratable Proportion of
shares of New Common Stock allocated to this Class based on the aggregate amount
of the Allowed Claims in Classes G4 and G5. A holder of an Allowed Genesis
General Unsecured Claim that is an Insured Claim shall be paid in the ordinary
course of the business of the Reorganized Debtors to the extent that Claim is
insured and shall have an Allowed Genesis General Unsecured Claim to the extent
the applicable insurance policy does not provide coverage with respect to any
portion of the Insured Claim.

            4.5. Genesis Senior Subordinated Note Claims (Class G5).

            The holders of Allowed Genesis Senior Subordinated Note Claims shall
receive a proportionate allocation of (i) 1,689,147 shares of New Common Stock
and (ii) New Warrants to purchase 2,835,645 shares of New Common Stock, based on
the aggregate amount of Allowed Claims in Classes G4 and G5. The shares of New
Common Stock allocated to Classes G4 and G5 represent approximately 4.12% of the
total shares of New Common Stock to be issued and outstanding on the Effective
Date and are subject to dilution from stock issuances occurring after the
Effective Date,

                                       16




including, without limitation, in connection with the conversion of the New
Convertible Preferred Stock, the exercise of the New Warrants, or options
granted under the New Management Incentive Plan. Each holder of an Allowed
Genesis Senior Subordinated Note Claim shall receive its Ratable Proportion of
the shares of New Common Stock allocated to this Class, based on the aggregate
amount of the Allowed Claims in Classes G4 and G5.

            4.6. Genesis Intercompany Claims (Class G6).

            Each holder of a Genesis Intercompany Claim shall be unimpaired.

            4.7. Genesis Punitive Damage Claims (Class G7).

            Each holder of a Genesis Punitive Damage Claim shall receive no
distribution under the Plan of Reorganization, but shall be paid in the ordinary
course of the business of the Reorganized Debtors solely to the extent such
claims are covered by applicable insurance policies and such insurance is
permitted under governing state law.

            4.8. Genesis Series G Preferred Stock Interests (Class G8).

            All Equity Interests represented by the Series G Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock issued by Genesis, and any Claims for dividends or a

Effective Date and the first Business Day after the date that is thirty (30)
calendar days after the date a Multicare Other Secured

                                       17




Claim becomes Allowed, each holder of an Allowed Multicare Other Secured Claim

     SECTION 5. MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION

            5.1. Deemed Consolidation of Debtors for Plan Purposes Only.

            (a) Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Genesis
Debtors shall be deemed consolidated for the following purposes under the Plan
of Reorganization: (i) no distributions shall be made under the Plan of
Reorganization on account of the Genesis Intercompany Claims; (ii) all
guaranties by any of the Genesis Debtors of the obligations of any other Genesis
Debtor arising prior to the Effective Date shall be deemed eliminated so that
any Claim against any Genesis Debtor and any guaranty thereof executed by any
other Genesis Debtor and any joint and several liability of any of the Genesis
Debtors shall be deemed to be one obligation of the deemed consolidated Genesis
Debtors; and (iii) each and every Claim filed or to be filed in the
Reorganization Case of any of the Genesis Debtors shall be deemed filed against
the deemed consolidated Genesis Debtors and shall be deemed one Claim against
and obligation of the deemed consolidated Genesis Debtors.

                                       19





            Such deemed consolidation, however, shall not (other than for
purposes related to funding distributions under the Plan of Reorganization and
as set forth above in this Section) affect: (i) the legal and organizational
structure of the Reorganized Debtors; (ii) intercompany Claims by and among the
Genesis Debtors or Reorganized Debtors; (iii) pre- and post-Commencement Date
guaranties, liens, and security interests that are required to be maintained (A)
in connection with executory contracts or unexpired leases that were entered
into during the Genesis Reorganization Cases or that have been or will be
assumed, (B) pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, or (C) in connection with
any financing entered into, or New Senior Notes issued, by the Reorganized
Debtors on the Effective Date; and (iv) distributions out of any insurance
policies or proceeds of such policies.

            Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, the
deemed consolidation of the Genesis Debtors shall not have any effect on the
Claims being reinstated and unimpaired in Class G1 of the Plan, and the legal,
equitable, and contractual rights to which the holders of any such Claims is
entitled shall be left unaltered by the Plan.

            (b) Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Multicare
Debtors shall be deemed consolidated for the following purposes under the Plan
of Reorganization: (i) no distributions shall be made under the Plan of
Reorganization on account of Multicare Intercompany Claims; (ii) all guaranties
by any of the Multicare Debtors of the obligations of any other Multicare Debtor
arising prior to the Effective Date shall be deemed eliminated so that any Claim
against any Multicare Debtor and any guaranty thereof executed by any other
Multicare Debtor and any joint and several liability of any of the Multicare
Debtors shall be deemed to be one obligation of the deemed consolidated
Multicare Debtors; and (iii) each and every Claim filed or to be filed in the
Reorganization Case of any of the Multicare Debtors shall be deemed filed
against the deemed consolidated Multicare Debtors and shall be deemed one Claim
against and obligation of the deemed consolidated Multicare Debtors.

            Such deemed consolidation, however, shall not (other than for
purposes related to funding distributions under the Plan of Reorganization and
as set forth above in this Section) affect: (i) the legal and organizational
structure of the Reorganized Debtors; (ii) intercompany Claims by and among the
Multicare Debtors or Reorganized Debtors; (iii) pre- and post-Commencement Date
guaranties, liens, and security interests that are required to be maintained (A)
in connection with executory contracts or unexpired leases that were entered
into during the Multicare Reorganization Cases or that have been or will be
assumed, (B) pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, or (C) in connection with
any financing entered into by the Reorganized Debtors on the Effective Date; and
(iv) distributions out of any insurance policies or proceeds of policies.

            Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, the
deemed consolidation of the Multicare Debtors shall not have any effect on the
Claims being reinstated and unimpaired in Class M1 of the Plan, and the legal,
equitable, and contractual rights to which the holders of any such Claims is
entitled shall be left unaltered by the Plan.

            5.2. Merger of Corporate Entities.

            In accordance with the terms of the Plan of Merger and the votes of
Genesis, as the sole shareholder of Multicare Acquisition Corporation, and the
holders of the Multicare Senior Lender Claims, Multicare General Unsecured
Claims, and Multicare Senior Subordinated Note Claims, Multicare Acquisition
Corporation shall merge into Multicare, with Multicare being the surviving
entity. On such merger, (i) the New Multicare Stock shall be exchanged for
$147,682,000 of New Senior Notes and shares of New Convertible Preferred Stock
with an aggregate liquidation preference of $11,600,000, to be distributed to
holders of Allowed Claims in Class M2, 8,825,774 shares of New Common Stock, to
be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims in Classes M2, M4, and M5, and
37.81% of New Warrants, to


                                       20




be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims in Classes M4 and M5, (ii) Multicare
Acquisition Corporation shall cease to exist as a separate legal entity, and
(iii) Reorganized Multicare shall become a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of
Reorganized Genesis.

            5.3. Authorization of Plan Securities.

            Reorganized Genesis is authorized to issue the Plan Securities in
accordance with Sections 4 and 5.2 hereof, without the need for any further
corporate action.

            5.4. Exit Facility.

            The Debtors are authorized to enter into new financing arrangements
for purposes of funding obligations under the Plan of Reorganization, including
the payment of Administrative Expense Claims and the repayment of obligations
under the Debtors' respective Revolving Credit and Guaranty Agreements described
in Section 2.4 hereof, and providing for working capital requirements. The new
financing arrangements may be in any form acceptable to Reorganized Genesis,
including, without limitation, a new revolving credit agreement and new Term A
Notes, with priority in payment and collateral senior to the New Senior Notes.

            5.5. Waiver of Subordination.

            The distributions under the Plan of Reorganization do not take into
account the relative priority of the Claims in each Class in connection with any
contractual subordination provisions relating to the Genesis Senior Subordinated
Note Claims and the Multicare Senior Subordinated Note Claims. Accordingly, the
distributions to the holders of Claims in Classes G5 and M5 shall not be subject
to levy, garnishment, attachment, or other legal process by any holder of
indebtedness senior to the indebtedness of the holders of the Claims in Classes
G5 and M5, in each case by reason of claimed contractual subordination rights.
On the Effective Date, all creditors shall be deemed to have waived any and all
contractual subordination rights which they may have with respect to such
distribution, and the Confirmation Order shall permanently enjoin, effective as

            5.8. Management Incentive Plan.

            Reorganized Genesis shall adopt the New Management Incentive Plan.

worth of such entities is not greater than an amount acceptable to the agent for
the holders of the Genesis Senior Lender Claims and the Multicare Senior Lender
Claims.

            5.10. Release of Representatives.

            As of the Effective Date, the respective officers, directors,

holder of a Claim against the Debtors, including all indentures and notes

the purposes of (i) allowing the indenture trustees to make any distributions on
account of Classes G5 and M5 pursuant to the Plan and to perform such other
necessary administrative functions with respect thereto, and (ii) permitting the
indenture trustees to maintain any rights or liens they may have for fees,

            5.12. Board of Directors.

            The initial Board of Directors of Reorganized Genesis shall consist

                                       22

the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on the Effective Date. The
Amended Certificate of Incorporation and the certificates of incorporation for
each of the Reorganized Debtors that are corporations, other than Reorganized
Genesis, shall prohibit the issuance of nonvoting equity securities, subject to
further amendment of such certificates of incorporation as permitted by
applicable law. The Amended Bylaws shall be deemed adopted by the board of

            5.14. Subsidiary Guaranties.

guaranties.

            5.15. Settlement with the Federal Government.

            The Settlement Agreement among the Genesis Debtors and the United

Care Financing Administration, the Office of Inspector General, the Department
of Justice, and other agencies or departments of the United States concerning
the resolution of certain Claims asserted by such agencies against the Genesis
Debtors, in the form set forth in the Plan Supplement, is hereby made a part of
the Plan of Reorganization.

            5.16. Settlement Between the Genesis Debtors and the Multicare
Debtors.

            The settlement between Genesis and its direct and indirect
subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Multicare and its direct and indirect
subsidiaries, on the other hand, regarding any and all Claims against each other
shall be effectuated pursuant to the terms of that certain Settlement Agreement
among Genesis, Multicare, and their direct and indirect subsidiaries or
affiliates, in the form set forth in the Plan Supplement. The effect of the
settlement is that neither the Genesis Debtors nor the Multicare Debtors will
have claims against each other.

     SECTION 6. DISTRIBUTIONS

            6.1. Distribution Record Date.

            As of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, the
various transfer registers for each of the Classes of Claims or Equity Interests
as maintained by the Debtors, or their respective agents, shall be deemed
closed, and there shall be no further changes in the record holders of any of
the

                                       23





Claims or Interests. The Debtors shall have no obligation to
recognize any transfer of the Claims or Equity Interests occurring on or after
the Distribution Record Date. The Debtors shall be entitled to recognize and
deal for all purposes hereunder only with those record holders stated on the
transfer ledgers as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, to
the extent applicable.

            6.2. Date of Distributions.

            Unless otherwise provided herein, any distributions and deliveries
to be made hereunder shall be made on the Effective Date or as soon thereafter
as is practicable. In the event that any payment or act under the Plan of
Reorganization is required to be made or performed on a date that is not a
Business Day, then the making of such payment or the performance of such act may
be completed on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the next succeeding
Business Day, but shall be deemed to have been completed as of the required
date.

            6.3. Distributions to Classes G2, G4, G5, M2, M4, and M5.

            On the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute
the New Senior Notes, the New Convertible Preferred Stock, the New Common Stock,
and any Cash allocable to Classes G2 and M2 to the individual holders of the
Genesis Senior Lender Claims and Multicare Senior Lender Claims in such
denominations and registered in the names of the holders as Mellon Bank, N.A.
shall have directed in writing. On the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent
shall distribute the New Common Stock and the New Warrants to holders of Allowed
Claims in Classes G4, G5, M4, and M5. For the purpose of calculating the amount
of New Common Stock and New Warrants to be distributed to holders of Allowed
Claims in Classes G4, G5, M4, and M5 on the Effective Date, all Disputed Claims
in such Classes will be treated as though such Claims will be Allowed Claims in
the amounts asserted, Allowed pursuant to Section 6.12 hereof, or as estimated
by the Bankruptcy Court, as applicable. On the Final Distribution Date, each
holder of an Allowed Claim in Classes G4, G5, M4, and M5 shall receive a
Catch-up Distribution of New Common Stock and/or New Warrants, as applicable.
After the Effective Date but prior to the Final Distribution Date, the
Reorganized Debtors, in their sole discretion, may direct the Disbursing Agent
to distribute shares of New Common Stock and/or New Warrants, as applicable, to
a holder of a Disputed Claim in Class G4 or M4 which becomes an Allowed Claim
after the Effective Date such that the holder of such Claim receives the same
shares of New Common Stock and/or New Warrants, as applicable, that such holder
would have received had its Claim been an Allowed Claim in such amount on the
Effective Date.

            6.4. Disbursing Agent.

            All distributions under the Plan of Reorganization (other than
distributions described in the next sentences) shall be made by the applicable
Debtor as Disbursing Agent or such other entity designated by the applicable
Debtor as a Disbursing Agent on or after the Effective Date. Each Indenture
Trustee shall be the Disbursing Agent for its respective noteholders in Classes
G5 and M5, and The Bank of New York, as indenture trustee in relation to Tyler
County West Virginia Taxable Refunding Revenue Bonds (Care Haven Associates
Limited Partnership Project) Series 1994B and Series 1995 (the "Care Haven
Indenture Trustee") for its respective bondholders in Subclass M1-2. All
distributions to the creditors of each of the Multicare Debtors under the Plan
of Merger shall be made by Multicare Acquisition Corporation as Disbursing Agent
or such other entity designated by Multicare Acquisition Corporation as a
Disbursing Agent on or after the Effective Date. A Disbursing Agent shall not be
required to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of its
duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, and, in the event that
a Disbursing Agent is so otherwise ordered, all costs and expenses of procuring
any such bond or surety shall be borne by the applicable Debtor.


                                       24





            6.5. Rights and Powers of Disbursing Agent.

            (a) Powers of the Disbursing Agent. The Disbursing Agent shall be
empowered to (i) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments, and
other documents necessary to perform its duties under the Plan of
Reorganization, (ii) make all distributions contemplated hereby, (iii) employ
professionals to represent it with respect to its responsibilities, and (iv)
exercise such other powers as may be vested in the Disbursing Agent by order of
the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, or as deemed by
the Disbursing Agent to be necessary and proper to implement the provisions
hereof.

            (b) Expenses Incurred on or After the Effective Date. Except as
otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, the amount of any reasonable fees and
expenses incurred by the Disbursing Agent on or after the Effective Date
(including, without limitation, taxes) and any reasonable compensation and
expense reimbursement claims (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses) made by the Disbursing Agent shall be paid in Cash
by the Reorganized Debtors.

            6.6. Surrender of Instruments.

            As a condition to receiving any distribution under the Plan of
Reorganization, each holder of a certificated instrument or note must surrender
such instrument or note held by it to the Disbursing Agent or its designee,
unless such certificated instrument or note is being reinstated or being left
unimpaired under the Plan of Reorganization. Any holder of such instrument or
note that fails to (i) surrender such instrument or note, or (ii) execute and
deliver an affidavit of loss and/or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the
Disbursing Agent and furnish a bond in form, substance, and amount reasonably
satisfactory to the Disbursing Agent before the first anniversary of the
Effective Date shall be deemed to have forfeited all rights and Claims and may
not participate in any distribution under the Plan of Reorganization. Any
distribution so forfeited shall become property of Reorganized Genesis.

            6.7. Delivery of Distributions.

            Subject to Bankruptcy Rule 9010, all distributions to any holder of
an Allowed Claim except the holders of an Allowed Senior Lender Claim, shall be
made at the address of such holder as set forth on the Schedules filed with the
Bankruptcy Court or on the books and records of the Debtors or their agents or
in a letter of transmittal unless the Debtors have been notified in writing of a
change of address, including, without limitation, by the filing of a proof of
claim or interest by such holder that contains an address for such holder
different from the address reflected on such Schedules for such holder. All
distributions to any holder of an Allowed Senior Lender Claim shall be made to
Mellon Bank N.A., as administrative agent under the Genesis Senior Lender
Agreements and the Multicare Senior Lender Agreements. Any distribution of New
Common Stock or New Warrants to any of the Indenture Trustees shall be deemed a
distribution to the respective holder of a Genesis Senior Subordinated Note
Claim or Multicare Senior Subordinated Note Claim. In the event that any
distribution to any holder is returned as undeliverable, the Disbursing Agent
shall use reasonable efforts to determine the current address of such holder,
but no distribution to such holder shall be made unless and until the Disbursing
Agent has determined the then current address of such holder, at which time such
distribution shall be made to such holder without interest; provided that such
distributions shall be deemed unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the
Bankruptcy Code at the expiration of one year from the Effective Date. After
such date, all unclaimed property or interest in property shall revert to
Reorganized Genesis, and the Claim of any other holder to such property or
interest in property shall be discharged and forever barred.


                                       25






            6.8. Manner of Payment Under Plan of Reorganization.

            (a) All distributions of Cash, New Senior Notes, New Convertible
Preferred Stock, New Common Stock, and New Warrants to the creditors of each of
the Genesis Debtors under the Plan of Reorganization shall be made by, or on
behalf of, the applicable Reorganized Debtor. Where the applicable Reorganized
Debtor is a subsidiary of Reorganized Genesis, Reorganized Genesis shall make a
capital contribution, either directly or indirectly, to the applicable
Reorganized Debtor equal to the amount distributed, but only at such time as,
and to the extent, the amounts are actually distributed to holders of Allowed
Claims. All distributions under the Plan of Reorganization of New Senior Notes
to the creditors of the Genesis Debtors shall be made by, or on behalf of,
Reorganized Genesis. To the extent that New Senior Notes are issued by
Reorganized Genesis to creditors of a Reorganized Debtor that is a subsidiary of
Reorganized Genesis, the portion of the Claims for which such New Senior Notes
are issued shall be treated as acquired by Reorganized Genesis. Immediately
thereafter, and pursuant hereto, Reorganized Genesis shall make a capital
contribution, either directly or indirectly, to any applicable Reorganized
Debtor, and such Claim shall be immediately cancelled and discharged. Any
distributions that revert to any of the Reorganized Debtors or are otherwise
canceled (such as to the extent any distributions have not been claimed within
one year or are canceled pursuant to Section 6.6 hereof) shall revest solely in
Reorganized Genesis, and any applicable Reorganized Debtor (other than
Reorganized Genesis) shall not have (nor shall it be considered to ever have
had) any ownership interest in the amounts distributed.

            (b) Subject to Section 4.13 hereof, the distribution of New
Multicare Stock to the creditors of each of the Multicare Debtors immediately
prior to the merger of Multicare Acquisition Corporation (a newly-formed, second
tier subsidiary of Genesis) into Multicare shall be made by, or on behalf of,
the applicable Multicare Debtor. Where the applicable Multicare Debtor is a
subsidiary of Multicare, Multicare shall make a capital contribution, either
directly or indirectly, to the applicable Multicare Debtor equal to the amount
of New Multicare Stock distributed to the creditors of the Multicare Debtors.

            (c) All distributions of Cash, New Senior Notes, New Convertible
Preferred Stock, New Common Stock, and New Warrants to the creditors of each of
the Multicare Debtors under the Plan of Merger shall be made by, or on behalf
of, Multicare Acquisition Corporation. Reorganized Genesis shall make a capital
contribution to the intermediate corporate parent of Multicare Acquisition
Corporation, which in turn shall make a capital contribution to Multicare
Acquisition Corporation, equal to the amount distributed, with such
contributions occurring only at such time as, and to the extent, the amounts are
actually distributed to holders of Allowed Claims. All distributions under the
Plan of New Senior Notes to the creditors of the Multicare Debtors shall be made
by, or on behalf of, Reorganized Genesis. To the extent that the acquisition of
the New Multicare Stock pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and the Plan of
Merger is in exchange for the New Senior Notes, such stock shall be treated as
acquired by Reorganized Genesis. Immediately thereafter, and pursuant hereto,
Reorganized Genesis shall contribute such stock to the intermediate corporate
parent of Multicare Acquisition Corporation. Any distributions that revert to
the Reorganized Debtors or are otherwise canceled (such as to the extent any
distributions have not been claimed within one year or are canceled pursuant to
Section 6.6 hereof) shall revest solely in Reorganized Genesis, and no
Reorganized Debtor (other than Reorganized Genesis) shall have (or shall be
considered to ever have had) any ownership interest in the amounts distributed.

            (d) At the option of the Debtors, any Cash payment to be made
hereunder may be made by a check or wire transfer or as otherwise required or
provided in applicable agreements.

                                       26





            6.9. Fractional Shares and Fractional Warrants.

            No fractional shares of New Common Stock or New Convertible
Preferred Stock, or fractional New Warrants or Cash in lieu thereof, shall be
distributed. For purposes of distribution, fractional shares of New Common Stock
or New Convertible Preferred Stock, or fractional New Warrants, shall be rounded
down to the next whole number or zero, as applicable.

            6.10. Setoffs.

            Except with respect to the Genesis Senior Lender Claims and the
Multicare Senior Lender Claims, the Debtors may, but shall not be required to,
set off against any Claim (for purposes of determining the Allowed amount of
such Claim on which distribution shall be made), any claims of any nature
whatsoever that the Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim, but
neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall
constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors of any such claim the Debtors may
have against the holder of such Claim.

            6.11. Allocation of Plan Distribution Between Principal and
Interest.

            All distributions in respect of any Claim shall be allocated first
to the principal amount of such Claim, as determined for federal income tax
purposes, and thereafter, to the remaining portion of such Claim, if any.

            6.12. Allowance of Claims in Classes G2, G5, M2, and M5.

            The aggregate Claims in Classes G2, G5, M2, and M5 shall be deemed
Allowed in the amounts of $1,193,460,000 (excluding postpetition interest and
before giving effect to postpetition payments), $387,425,000, $443,400,000
(excluding postpetition interest), and $257,817,000, respectively. The Claims in
Class G5 shall be deemed Allowed in the following amounts for each issue of
senior subordinated notes: (i) 9-3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2005:
$126,077,500; (ii) 9-1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006: $133,414,931;
(iii) 9-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009: $126,303,247; and (iv) 9-3/8%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2005: $1,629,313.

     SECTION 7. PROCEDURES FOR DISPUTED CLAIMS

            7.1. Objections to Claims.

            The Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to object to Claims. Any
objections to Claims shall be served and filed on or before the later of (i) one
hundred twenty (120) days after the Effective Date, and (ii) such date as may be
fixed by the Bankruptcy Court, whether fixed before or after the date specified
in clause (i) above.

            7.2. Payments and Distributions with Respect to Disputed Claims.

            (a) General. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any
portion of a Claim is a Disputed Claim, no payment or distribution provided
hereunder shall be made on account of such Claim unless and until such Disputed
Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

            (b) Tort Claims. All Tort Claims shall be deemed Disputed Claims
unless and until they are liquidated. Any Tort Claim which has not been
liquidated prior to the date of this Plan and as to which a proof of claim was
timely filed in the Reorganization Cases shall be determined and liquidated in
accordance with an alternative dispute resolution procedure or if the claimant
pursuing the Tort Claim has


                                       27





received relief from the automatic stay (through such alternative dispute
resolution procedure or otherwise), the Tort Claim shall be determined and
liquidated in the administrative or judicial tribunal in which it is pending on
the Confirmation Date or in any administrative or judicial tribunal of
appropriate jurisdiction. Any Tort Claim determined and liquidated (i) pursuant
to a judgment obtained in accordance with this Section and applicable
nonbankruptcy law which is no longer appealable or subject to review, or (ii) in
the alternative dispute resolution or similar proceeding approved by order of
the Bankruptcy Court shall be deemed, to the extent applicable, an Allowed Claim
in Class G4 or Class M4, as applicable, in such liquidated amount (provided that
for Insured Claims, such amount shall not exceed the liquidated amount of the
Claim less the amount paid by the insurer) and treated in accordance with
Sections 4.4 and 4.15 hereof. Nothing contained in this Section shall constitute
or be deemed a waiver of any Claim, right, or cause of action that the Debtors
may have against any person in connection with or arising out of any Tort Claim,
including, without limitation, any rights under section 157(b) of title 28 of
the United States Code.

            7.3. Distributions After Allowance.

            After such time as a Disputed Claim becomes, in whole or in part, an
Allowed Claim, the Reorganized Debtors shall distribute to the holder thereof
the distributions, if any, to which such holder is then entitled under the Plan
of Reorganization. Such Cash distributions shall be made as soon as practicable
after the date that the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing such
Disputed Claim (or portion thereof) becomes a Final Order, but in no event more
than thirty (30) days thereafter. Shares of New Common Stock or New Warrants
distributable to the holder of a Disputed Claim which becomes an Allowed Claim
(in whole or in part) as a result of the entry of an order or judgment of the
Bankruptcy Court allowing such Disputed Claim (or portion thereof) shall be made
in accordance with Section 6.3 hereof.

            7.4. Estimation of Claims.

            The Reorganized Debtors may at any time request that the Bankruptcy
Court estimate any contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim pursuant to
section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code regardless of whether the Debtor
previously objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on
any such objection, and the Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to
estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any
Claim, including, without limitation, during the pendency of any appeal relating
to any such objection. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any
contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim, the amount so estimated shall
constitute either the allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on
such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount
constitutes a maximum limitation on the amount of such Claim, the Reorganized
Debtors may pursue supplementary proceedings to object to the allowance of such
Claim. All of the aforementioned objection, estimation, and resolution
procedures are intended to be cumulative and not exclusive of one another.
Claims may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn, or
resolved by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

            7.5. Interest and Dividends.

            To the extent that a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after
the Effective Date and is entitled to a Cash distribution under the Plan of
Reorganization, the holder of such Claim shall be entitled to a Cash
distribution plus interest thereon, calculated at the average rate received by
the Debtors in their deposit accounts, from the Effective Date to the date of
distribution. In the event that dividend distributions have been made with
respect to the New Common Stock distributable to a holder of a Disputed Claim
that later becomes Allowed, such holder shall be entitled to receive such
previously distributed dividends without any interest with respect thereto.

                                       28






     SECTION 8. EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

            8.1. General Treatment.

            All executory contracts and unexpired leases to which any of the
Debtors are parties are hereby assumed, including the bonds executed by Liberty
Bond Services on behalf of the Debtors, except for an executory contract or
unexpired lease that (i) has been assumed or rejected pursuant to Final Order of
the Bankruptcy Court, (ii) is specifically designated as a contract or lease to
be rejected on the Schedule of Rejected Contracts attached hereto, (iii) is the
subject of a separate motion to assume or reject filed under section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code by the Genesis Debtors or Multicare Debtors prior to the
Confirmation Date, or (iv) is an option or warrant to purchase common stock of
any of the Debtors or right to convert any Equity Interest into common stock of
any of the Debtors to the extent such option, warrant, or conversion right is
determined not to be an Equity Interest.

            8.2. Cure of Defaults.

            Except to the extent that different treatment has been agreed to by
the nondebtor party or parties to any executory contract or unexpired lease to
be assumed pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof, the Debtors shall, pursuant to the
provisions of sections 1123(a)(5)(G) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code and
consistent with the requirements of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, within
thirty (30) days of the Confirmation Date, file and serve a pleading with the
Bankruptcy Court listing the cure amounts of all executory contracts or
unexpired leases to be assumed. The parties to such executory contracts or
unexpired leases to be assumed by the Debtors shall have fifteen (15) days from
service to object to the cure amounts listed by the Debtors. If there are any
objections filed, the Bankruptcy Court shall hold a hearing. The Debtors shall
retain their right to reject any of their executory contracts or unexpired
leases, including contracts or leases that are subject to a dispute concerning
amounts necessary to cure any defaults.

            8.3. Rejection Claims.

            In the event that the rejection of an executory contract or
unexpired lease by any of the Debtors pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization
results in damages to the other party or parties to such contract or lease, a
Claim for such damages, if not heretofore evidenced by a filed proof of claim,
shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors, or
their respective properties or interests in property as agents, successors, or
assigns, unless a proof of claim is filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served
upon counsel for the Debtors on or before the date that is thirty (30) days
after the Confirmation Date or such later rejection date that occurs as a result
of a dispute concerning amounts necessary to cure any defaults.

all present and future actions, suits, and proceedings against the Debtors or
such directors, officers, agents, and/or employees, based upon any act or
omission for or on


                                       29




behalf of the Debtors shall not be discharged or impaired by confirmation of the
Plan of Reorganization. Such obligations shall be deemed and treated as
executory contracts to be assumed by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan of
Reorganization, and shall continue as obligations of the Reorganized Debtors.

     SECTION 9. CONDITION PRECEDENT TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE

            The occurrence of the Effective Date of the Plan of Reorganization
is subject to satisfaction of the condition precedent that the Reorganized
Debtors shall enter into the new financing arrangements referred to in Section
5.4 hereof for purposes of funding obligations under the Plan of Reorganization
and providing for working capital requirements and all of the conditions
precedent to the initial extensions of credit thereunder shall be satisfied.

     SECTION 10. EFFECT OF CONFIRMATION

            10.1. Vesting of Assets.

            Upon the Effective Date, pursuant to sections 1141(b) and (c) of the
Bankruptcy Code, all property of the Debtors' bankruptcy estates shall vest in
the Reorganized Debtors free and clear of all Claims, liens, encumbrances,
charges, and other interests, except as provided herein. The Reorganized Debtors
may operate their businesses and may use, acquire, and dispose of property free
of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules and in all
respects as if there were no pending cases under any chapter or provision of the
Bankruptcy Code, except as provided herein.

            10.2. Discharge of Claims and Termination of Equity Interests.

            Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Confirmation Order,
the rights afforded in the Plan of Reorganization and the payments and
distributions to be made hereunder shall discharge all existing debts and
Claims, and terminate all Equity Interests, of any kind, nature, or description
whatsoever against or in the Debtors or any of their assets or properties to the
fullest extent permitted by section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code. Except as
provided in the Plan of Reorganization, upon the Effective Date, all existing
Claims against the Debtors and Equity Interests in the Debtors, shall be, and
shall be deemed to be, discharged and terminated, and all holders of Claims and
Equity Interests shall be precluded and enjoined from asserting against the
Reorganized Debtors, or any of their assets or properties, any other or further
Claim or Equity Interest based upon any act or omission, transaction, or other
activity of any kind or nature that occurred prior to the Effective Date,
whether or not such holder has filed a proof of claim or proof of equity
interest. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, any valid
setoff or recoupment rights held against any of the Debtors, including any such
rights that HCR Manor Care, Inc., Manor Care, Inc., and/or ManorCare Health
Services, Inc. may have in connection with the pending prepetition litigation
actions described in section V.D of the disclosure statement for the Plan, shall
not be affected by the Plan and shall be expressly preserved in the Confirmation
Order.

            10.3. Discharge of Debtors.

            Upon the Effective Date and in consideration of the distributions to
be made hereunder, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each holder
(as well as any trustees and agents on behalf of each holder) of a Claim or
Equity Interest and any affiliate of such holder shall be deemed to have forever
waived, released, and discharged the Debtors, to the fullest extent permitted by
section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code, of and from any and all Claims, Equity
Interests, rights, and liabilities that arose prior to the Effective Date. Upon
the Effective Date, all such persons shall be forever precluded and enjoined,
pursuant to section 524 of the Bankruptcy Code, from prosecuting or asserting
any such


                                       30




discharged Claim against or terminated Equity Interest in the Debtors.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, any valid setoff or
recoupment rights held against any of the Debtors, including any such rights
that HCR Manor Care, Inc., Manor Care, Inc., and/or ManorCare Health Services,
Inc. may have in connection with the pending prepetition litigation actions
described in section V.D of the disclosure statement for the Plan, shall not be
affected by the Plan and shall be expressly preserved in the Confirmation Order.

            10.4. Term of Injunctions or Stays.

            Unless otherwise provided, all injunctions or stays arising under or
entered during the Reorganization Cases under section 105 or 362 of the
Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, and in existence on the Confirmation Date, shall
remain in full force and effect until the later of the Effective Date and the
date indicated in such order.

            10.5. Injunction Against Interference With Plan.

            Upon the entry of a Confirmation Order with respect to the Plan of
Reorganization, all holders of Claims and Equity Interests and other parties in
interest, along with their respective present or former employees, agents,
officers, directors, or principals, shall be enjoined from taking any actions to
interfere with the implementation or consummation of the Plan of Reorganization.

            10.6. Exculpation.

            Neither the Debtors, any Disbursing Agent, the respective statutory
committees of unsecured creditors appointed pursuant to section 1102 of the
Bankruptcy Code in the Genesis Reorganization Cases and the Multicare
Reorganization Cases, Mellon Bank, N.A., as administrative agent under, and any
lender under, the Genesis Senior Lender Agreements, the Multicare Senior Lender
Agreements, and the Revolving Credit and Guaranty Agreements described in
Section 2.4 hereof, nor any of their respective members, officers, directors,
employees, agents, or professionals shall have or incur any liability to any
holder of any Claim or Equity Interest for any act or omission in connection
with, or arising out of, the Reorganization Cases, the confirmation of the Plan
of Reorganization, the consummation of the Plan of Reorganization, or the
administration of the Plan of Reorganization or property to be distributed under
the Plan of Reorganization, except for willful misconduct or gross negligence.

            10.7. Retention of Causes of Action/Reservation of Rights.

            (a) Nothing contained in the Plan of Reorganization or the
Confirmation Order shall be deemed to be a waiver or the relinquishment of any
rights or causes of action that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may have
or which the Reorganized Debtors may choose to assert on behalf of their
respective estates under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable
nonbankruptcy law, including, without limitation, (i) any and all Claims against
any person or entity, to the extent such person or entity asserts a crossclaim,
counterclaim, and/or Claim for setoff which seeks affirmative relief against the
Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their officers, directors, or representatives,
and (ii) the turnover of any property of the Debtors' estates; provided,
however, that this Section does not apply with respect to the settlement
agreements described in Sections 5.15 and 5.16 hereof. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors waive all avoidance actions,
except as set forth in the Plan Supplement.

            (b) Nothing contained in the Plan of Reorganization or the
Confirmation Order shall be deemed to be a waiver or relinquishment of any
claim, cause of action, right of setoff, or other legal or

                                       31




equitable defense which the Debtors had immediately prior to the Commencement
Date, against or with respect to any Claim left unimpaired by the Plan of
Reorganization. The Reorganized Debtors shall have, retain, reserve, and be
entitled to assert all such claims, causes of action, rights of setoff, and
other legal or equitable defenses which they had immediately prior to the
Commencement Date fully as if the Reorganization Cases had not been commenced,
and all of the Reorganized Debtors' legal and equitable rights respecting any
Claim left unimpaired by the Plan of Reorganization may be asserted after the
Confirmation Date to the same extent as if the Reorganization Cases had not been
commenced.

     SECTION 11. RETENTION OF JURISDICTION

            On and after the Effective Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain
jurisdiction over all matters arising in, arising under, and related to the
Reorganization Cases for, among other things, the following purposes:

            be appropriate in the event the Confirmation Order is for any reason
            stayed, reversed, revoked, modified, or vacated.

                        (f) To issue injunctions, enter and implement other
            orders, and take such other actions as may be necessary or
            appropriate to restrain interference by any person with the
            consummation, implementation, or enforcement of the Plan of
            Reorganization, the Confirmation Order, or any other order of the
            Bankruptcy Court.

                        (g) To hear and determine any application to modify the

            statement for the Plan or Reorganization, or any order of the
            Bankruptcy Court, including the Confirmation Order, in such a manner
            as may be necessary to carry out the purposes and effects thereof.

                        (h) To hear and determine all applications under
            sections 330, 331, and 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code for awards of

            incurred prior to the Confirmation Date.

            with the interpretation, implementation, or enforcement of the Plan

            document governing or relating to any of the foregoing.

                                       32

     SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

            12.1. Payment of Statutory Fees.

            On the Effective Date, and thereafter as may be required, the

            12.2. Retiree Benefits.

            On and after the Effective Date, pursuant to section 1129(a)(13) of

benefits of the Debtors (within the meaning of section 1114 of the Bankruptcy
Code), at the level established in accordance with section 1114 of the
Bankruptcy Code, at any time prior to the Confirmation Date, for the duration of
the period for which the Debtors had obligated themselves to provide such
benefits.

            12.3. Dissolution of Statutory Committees of Unsecured Creditors.

            The respective statutory committees of unsecured creditors appointed
pursuant to section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Genesis Reorganization

Date, except that such statutory committees shall have the right to review and
object to any applications for compensation and reimbursement of expenses filed
in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof.

            12.4. Substantial Consummation.

            On the Effective Date, the Plan of Reorganization shall be deemed to

                                       33






            12.5. Amendments.

            (a) Plan of Reorganization Modifications. The Plan of Reorganization
may be amended, modified, or supplemented by the Debtors or the Reorganized
Debtors in the manner provided for by section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code or as
otherwise permitted by law without additional disclosure pursuant to section
1125 of the Bankruptcy Code, with the prior written consent of Mellon Bank,
N.A., as administrative agent under the Genesis Senior Lender Agreements, the
Multicare Senior Lender Agreements, and the Revolving Credit and Guaranty
Agreements described in Section 2.4 hereof and the respective statutory
committee of unsecured creditors appointed in the Genesis Reorganization Cases
and Multicare Reorganization Cases, to the extent that such amendment,
modification, or supplement would adversely and materially affect the treatment
of the Senior Lender Claims, the Genesis General Unsecured Claims, and the
Multicare General Unsecured Claims, respectively, except as the Bankruptcy Court
may otherwise direct. In addition, after the Confirmation Date, so long as such
action does not materially adversely affect the treatment of holders of Claims
or Equity Interests under the Plan of Reorganization, the Debtors may institute
proceedings in the Bankruptcy Court to remedy any defect or omission or
reconcile any inconsistencies in the Plan of Reorganization or the Confirmation
Order, with respect to such matters as may be necessary to carry out the
purposes and effects of the Plan of Reorganization.

            (b) Other Amendments. Prior to the Effective Date the Debtors may
make appropriate technical adjustments and modifications to the Plan of
Reorganization without further order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court,
provided that such technical adjustments and modifications do not adversely
affect in a material way the treatment of holders of Claims or Equity Interests.

            12.6. Revocation or Withdrawal of the Plan.

            The Debtors reserve the right to revoke or withdraw the Plan prior
to the Effective Date. If the Debtors take such action, the Plan of
Reorganization shall be deemed null and void.

            12.7. Severability.

            If, prior to the entry of the Confirmation Order, any term or
provision of the Plan of Reorganization is held by the Bankruptcy Court to be
invalid, void, or unenforceable, the Bankruptcy Court, at the request of the
Debtors, shall have the power to alter and interpret such term or provision to
make it valid or enforceable to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with
the original purpose of the term or provision held to be invalid, void, or
unenforceable, and such term or provision shall then be applicable as altered or
interpreted. Notwithstanding any such holding, alteration, or interpretation,
the remainder of the terms and provisions of the Plan of Reorganization will
remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired, or
invalidated by such holding, alteration, or interpretation. The Confirmation
Order shall constitute a judicial determination and shall provide that each term
and provision of the Plan or Reorganization, as it may have been altered or
interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is valid and enforceable pursuant
to its terms.

            12.8. Governing Law.

            Except to the extent that the Bankruptcy Code or other federal law
is applicable, or to the extent an Exhibit hereto or a schedule in the Plan
Supplement provides otherwise, the rights, duties, and obligations arising under
the Plan of Reorganization shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the
principles of conflict of laws thereof.

                                       34





            12.9. Time.

            In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed by the Plan of
Reorganization, unless otherwise set forth herein or determined by the
Bankruptcy Court, the provisions of Bankruptcy Rule 9006 shall apply.

            12.10. Notices.
