Exhibit 99.3



                     FORM OF TIDEWATER MEMBERSHIP AGREEMENT

         This MEMBERSHIP AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), is entered into as of
December 1, 2003 (the "Effective Date"), between Tidewater Healthcare Shared
Services Group, Inc. ("Tidewater") and Genesis Healthcare Corporation ("GHC").

                                   BACKGROUND

         1. Tidewater is a "group purchasing organization" that is structured to
comply with the requirements of the "safe harbor" regulations regarding payments
to group purchasing organizations set forth in 42 C.F.R. ss.1001.952(j) and
maintains agreements with vendors for purchasing healthcare related equipment,
supplies and services.

         2. GHC desires to participate in Tidewater's group purchasing program
(the "Program"), and Tidewater desires to allow GHC and its Facilities (as
defined below) to participate in the Program, on the terms and conditions set
forth herein.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual
promises set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto,
intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

                                      TERMS

         1. Purchase of Products and Services.

                  1.1 GHC hereby engages Tidewater as an independent group
purchasing organization on behalf of all long term care facilities owned or
leased by GHC, for which GHC has the authority to make such designation at any
time during the term of this Agreement (each, a "Facility" and collectively, the
"Facilities"). The current list of Facilities is attached hereto as Exhibit "A."

                  1.2 Tidewater hereby grants GHC access to the Program,
pursuant to which GHC and its Facilities will purchase, license or lease
products and services ("GHC Purchases"). GHC hereby authorizes Tidewater, as its
agent for such purposes, to (i) negotiate the terms of and enter into purchasing
agreements ("Vendor Contracts") between vendors ("Vendors") and Tidewater for
the purchase of products and services, and to cancel or modify any Vendor
Contracts as it deems necessary, advisable or appropriate; and (ii) receive from
Vendors, distributors, and e-commerce companies, data relating to GHC Purchases.

                           1.2.1 Notwithstanding the foregoing, where the annual
GHC Purchase Volume (as defined below) for any Vendor exceeds 50% of the annual
total purchases through Tidewater from such Vendor, GHC may, at its option,
elect to negotiate pricing directly with such Vendor; provided, however, that
any agreement with such Vendor shall provide that GHC will continue to purchase
from such Vendor through Tidewater, and preserve Tidewater's historical GPO Fee
with such Vendor (expressed as a percentage of total purchase volume from such
Vendor). GHC shall allow Tidewater to participate in the negotiations as
Tidewater and GHC deem appropriate under the circumstances.




                           1.2.2 GHC may, from time to time, identify vendors
for consideration and inclusion in the Tidewater Program. Tidewater agrees to
reasonably consider all such proposed vendors; provided, however, that Tidewater
may accept or reject such Vendors into the Program at its sole discretion.
Tidewater shall allow GHC to participate in the negotiations as Tidewater and
GHC deem appropriate under the circumstances.

                  1.3 Commencing on the Effective Date, GHC and its Facilities
shall purchase a minimum of $8,812,500 per quarter from or through Tidewater
Vendors (the "Purchase Requirement"). On each anniversary date of this
Agreement, the Purchase Requirement shall be increased by the percentage
increase in the consumer price index ("CPI") in the previous year, as determined
by reference to the publication dates nearest to such anniversary date and the
prior anniversary date.

                  1.4 E-Commerce. GHC and Tidewater agree to use good faith
efforts to explore "e-commerce" opportunities; provided, however, that Tidewater
shall not be obligated to provide an on-line ordering system. Tidewater shall
use reasonable commercial efforts to provide links to Vendor web sites through
Tidewater's web site.

                  1.5 GHC agrees to use its best efforts to cause any health
care facility managed by or otherwise affiliated with GHC, including but not
limited to a joint venture of which GHC is a part, but which does not meet the
definition of Affiliate (a "Third Party Operator"), to contract with Tidewater
and participate in the Program, upon terms to be negotiated among Tidewater, GHC
and such Third Party Operator.

         2. GPO Fees and Rebates.

                  2.1 GHC acknowledges that: (i) Tidewater will receive payment
of fees ("GPO Fees") for administrative and other services provided by Tidewater
from Vendors based on GHC Purchases; and (ii) the GPO Fees will be three percent
(3%) or less of the dollar volume of GHC Purchases (the "GHC Purchase Volume").

                  2.2 Tidewater may receive additional GPO Fees ("Additional GPO
Fees") from Vendors, the payment of which is based on the products and services
purchased by Tidewater members collectively which, when added to the GPO Fees
earned based on the GHC Purchases allocated among all Tidewater members, may
exceed three percent (3%) of the GHC Purchase Volume. Tidewater does not know
whether it will receive such Additional GPO Fees, but shall disclose in writing
to GHC on an annual basis the names of the Vendors, and the specific amount of
total GPO Fees received from each of the Vendors with respect to GHC Purchases,
including the amount received from each Vendor based on purchases of Tidewater
members collectively.

                                       -2-


                  2.3 Under the circumstances described in this Section 2.3,
Tidewater agrees to pay to GHC a portion of the GPO Fees (the "Shared Fees")
received by Tidewater and attributable to GHC Purchases:


                           2.3.1 If the quarterly aggregate GHC Purchase Volume
is at least $5.06 per bed (measured by calculating the aggregate GHC Purchase
Volume divided by the number of beds at all Facilities) (the "First Tier
Threshold") but less than $6.01 per bed (the "Second Tier Threshold"),
Tidewater shall pay to GHC one-third of the GPO Fees actually received by
Tidewater attributable to GHC Purchases for such period, not to exceed 1% of
the GHC Purchase Volume. On each anniversary date of this Agreement, the First
Tier Threshold and the Second Tier Threshold shall be increased by the
percentage increase in CPI in the previous year, as determined by reference to
the publication dates nearest to such anniversary date and the prior anniversary
date.

                           2.3.2 If the quarterly aggregate GHC Purchase Volume
is at least the Second Tier Threshold, Tidewater shall pay to GHC two-thirds of
the GPO Fees received by Tidewater attributable to GHC Purchases for such
period, not to exceed 2% of the GHC Purchase Volume.


                  2.4 Tidewater shall pay an estimate of Shared Fees, if any, to
GHC on a quarterly basis, not more than 30 days after the quarter end; provided,
however, that GHC and Tidewater shall reconcile the actual amount of Shared
Fees, if any, earned by GHC as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and
any adjustments will be refunded to Tidewater or paid to GHC, as applicable, at
the time of the next quarterly payment of Shared Fees. GHC will allocate any
such Shared Fees among all of its Facilities participating in the Program (i) in
amounts proportionate to the GHC Purchases attributable to each Facility which
gave rise to the Shared Fees paid to GHC pursuant to this Agreement; or (ii) as
otherwise required by law.

         3. Term and Termination.

                  3.1 The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective
Date and shall continue in full force and effect for a period of ten (10) years
(the "Initial Term"). Subsequent to the Initial Term, this Agreement shall
automatically renew for additional one year terms (each, a "Renewal Term")
unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal not less than one
hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or Renewal
Term, as appropriate.

                  3.2 If GHC or Tidewater shall commit a material breach of a
material provision of this Agreement, and such material breach shall continue
for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice by the non-defaulting
party to the other specifying the material breach in question and requesting
that the material breach be cured, then this Agreement shall terminate, at the
option of the non-defaulting party, on thirty (30) days further written notice
to the other party, provided, however, that if the defaulting party has
commenced cure within such thirty (30) day period, and diligently pursues such
cure after the thirty (30) day period, then the right to give such thirty (30)
day notice of termination shall be suspended for the time necessary to effect
such cure. The parties acknowledge that if GHC or any of its Facilities fail to
comply with the terms and conditions of any Vendor Contract, it shall be
considered a breach of this Agreement by GHC, but a breach by any Vendor of any
Vendor Agreement shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement by GHC or
Tidewater.

                                       -3-

                  3.3 Any sale, lease, assignment, delegation or transfer of all
or any portion of GHC's or any Facility's management, operations, facilities,
assets or business to any other person, corporation or entity, including any
management company, will not constitute grounds for the termination or
modification of this Agreement by GHC. Upon a sale, divestiture or other
disposition (including lease termination or expiration) of any Facility to a
third party which is not then an Affiliate of GHC, GHC shall use its best
efforts to persuade the buyer or successor operator of such Facility to contract
with Tidewater and participate in the Program.

                  3.4 Five Year Price Verification. At least 180 days prior to
the fifth anniversary date of this Agreement, if GHC obtains a written, bona
fide offer which GHC desires to accept whereby GHC may purchase a substantially
similar product or products from vendors who are not Vendors at rates which are,
in the aggregate, more favorable to GHC (including, as applicable, Shared Fees)
than the rates which are available to GHC through Tidewater (the "Competing
Offer"), GHC shall promptly notify Tidewater in writing of all of the terms of
the Competing Offer and offer Tidewater: (a) the opportunity to meet with the
vendor which has made the Competing Offer; and (b) the right to match the
Competing Offer (such that the net acquisition cost of such product to GHC is
the same or less than in the Competing Offer). GHC shall provide Tidewater with
any information promptly and reasonably requested by Tidewater which Tidewater
deems necessary to evaluate the Competing Offer. If Tidewater does not notify
GHC in writing that it will match the Competing Offer within ninety (90) days
from the later of receipt of such written notice from GHC or receipt from GHC of
the information requested by Tidewater pursuant to the preceding sentence (the
"Competing Offer Deadline"), GHC may accept the Competing Offer as of the later
of: (a) the fifth anniversary date of this Agreement; or (b) 90 days after the
Competing Offer Deadline, and the Purchase Requirement, First Tier Threshold and
Second Tier Threshold shall all be reduced pro rata to account for GHC's
acceptance of the Competing Offer.

                  3.5 E-Commerce Opportunity. At least 180 days prior to the
fifth anniversary date of this Agreement, if GHC obtains a written, bona fide
offer which GHC desires to accept whereby GHC may enter into a GPO relationship
with GPO which provides e-commerce opportunities which Tidewater does not then
provide (the "E-Commerce Opportunity"), GHC shall promptly notify Tidewater in
writing of all of the terms of the E-Commerce Opportunity and offer Tidewater
the right to provide substantially similar e-commerce services on substantially
similar terms as the E-Commerce Opportunity. GHC shall provide Tidewater with
any information promptly and reasonably requested by Tidewater which Tidewater
deems necessary to evaluate the E-Commerce Opportunity. If Tidewater does not
notify GHC in writing that it will match the E-Commerce Opportunity within
ninety (90) days from the later of receipt of such written notice from GHC or
receipt from GHC of the information requested by Tidewater pursuant to the
preceding sentence (the "E-Commerce Opportunity Deadline"), GHC may accept the
E-Commerce Opportunity as of the later of: (a) the fifth anniversary date of
this Agreement; or (b) 90 days after the E-Commerce Opportunity Deadline, and
the Purchase Requirement, First Tier Threshold and Second Tier Threshold shall
all be reduced pro rata to account for GHC's acceptance of the E-Commerce
Opportunity.

                                       -4-

         4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of GHC. GHC, for itself
and for each of its Facilities that purchase under the Vendor Contracts, hereby
covenants with Tidewater as follows:

                  4.1 GHC shall, and shall cause each of its Facilities, to: (i)
comply with all terms of this Agreement as if a party hereto; (ii) comply with
all terms of the Vendor Contracts, including without limitation, payment terms
and own use requirements; and (iii) execute separate agreements or
acknowledgements as requested by Tidewater or any particular Vendor evidencing
such Facility's agreement to comply with the terms of the relevant Vendor
Contract.

                  4.2 GHC covenants that all GHC Purchases will be for use in
the provision of healthcare services by GHC Facilities, and not for resale or
distribution to third parties other than in the course of furnishing healthcare
services.

                  4.3 GHC shall disclose information regarding GPO Fees,
Additional GPO Fees and Shared Fees to each of its Facilities.

                  4.4 GHC shall promptly (in advance if possible, but no later
than thirty (30) days following consummation of the change) notify Tidewater of
any actual or proposed additions or deletions to the list of Facilities.


         5. Liquidated Damages for Failure to Meet Purchase Requirement. GHC
acknowledges that failure to meet the Purchase Requirement in any quarter shall
cause Tidewater to lose GPO Fees and Additional GPO Fees in amounts that would
be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, if GHC fails to meet the Purchase
Requirement in any quarter, then GHC shall promptly pay to Tidewater as
liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, the product of: (i) the Purchase
Requirement for the quarter less the actual GHC Purchase Volume for the quarter;
and (ii) 1%. Both parties agree that this formula is the easiest method to
estimate Tidewater's actual damages.


         6. TIDEWATER DISCLAIMER AND GHC RELEASE. TIDEWATER DOES NOT MAKE, AND
EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY PRODUCTS AND
SERVICES SOLD LEASED OR LICENSED BY ANY VENDOR; AND GHC AND ITS FACILITIES
HEREBY EXPRESSLY RELEASE TIDEWATER FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY AND CLAIMS
RELATING TO THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, AND ANY BREACH OR ALLEGED BREACH OF
WARRANTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.

         7. Compliance with Law.

                  7.1 It is the intent of the parties to establish a business
relationship that complies with the Medicare and Medicaid anti-kickback statute,
set forth in 42 U.S.C. ss.1320a-7b(b). The parties agree that, for the purposes
of this Agreement, Tidewater is acting as a group purchasing organization. The
parties intend to comply with the requirements of the "safe harbor" regulations
regarding payments to group purchasing organizations set forth in 42 C.F.R.
ss.1001.952(j) and the parties believe that this Agreement satisfies those
requirements.

                                       -5-


                  7.2 Where a discount or other reduction in price is
applicable, the parties also intend to comply with the requirements of 42 U.S.C.
ss.1320a-7b(b)(3)(A) and the "safe harbor" regulations regarding discounts or
other reductions in price set forth in 42 C.F.R. ss.1001.952(h). In this regard,
the amount of any Shared Fees paid to GHC shall be treated as a rebate to the
Facility's cost for the applicable products and services. GHC shall provide all
required information regarding such rebate amounts and allocations to its
Facilities as required by law. The parties hereto acknowledge that GHC will
satisfy, and ensure that its Facilities satisfy any and all legal requirements
imposed on buyers. Thus, GHC and/or its Facilities will accurately report when
requested, under any state or federal program that provides for reimbursement
for the products and services covered by this Agreement, the net cost actually
paid by GHC and/or its Facilities, pursuant to Vendor Contracts.

                  7.3 Tidewater shall disclose to the Secretary of the United
States Department of Health and Human Services, upon request, the amount of GPO
Fees, Shared Fees and Additional GPO Fees received by Tidewater from each Vendor
with respect to GHC Purchases.

         8. Confidentiality. It is expressly understood that each of GHC and
Tidewater may utilize certain proprietary systems (electronic or manual),
methods, procedures, written materials (such as policy manuals) and other
information (including, without limitation, all information regarding the
pricing, rebates, discounts, shipping terms and other terms and conditions of
the Vendor Contracts as well as information relating to quantities of products
and services purchased by GHC and/or its Facilities, "Confidential
Information"). Such Confidential Information will remain the property of GHC or
Tidewater, as the case may be, and each party will not, at any time, unless
prior written approval is obtained from the other party, utilize, distribute,
copy, disclose to any party or otherwise employ or acquire such Confidential
Information of the other, other than to its accountants, lawyers, consultants,
subsidiaries and affiliates insofar as any such person or entity needs to know
such information in order to comply with law or to comply with this Agreement,
and who shall (a) be advised by the disclosing party of this Agreement and (b)
agree with the disclosing party to be bound by the provisions hereof, and except
to the extent required by law. Each party hereby acknowledges that if any breach
of this section occurs, the non-breaching party would be irreparably and
immediately harmed and could not be made whole by monetary damages. Accordingly,
in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled in law or in equity,
the non-breaching party will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to
prevent breaches and/or to compel specific performance of this section, and the
breaching party will not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that
monetary damages are adequate. The breaching party also agrees to reimburse the
non-breaching party for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's
fees, incurred by it in successfully enforcing the obligations under this
section. This provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.

         9. Insurance. At all times during the term of this Agreement, Tidewater
and GHC agree to maintain in full force and effect professional and general
liability insurance in amounts that are customary in their respective
industries.

                                       -6-


         10. Indemnification.

                  10.1 GHC and its Facilities shall indemnify and hold harmless
Tidewater and its respective affiliates, agents, officers, directors and
employees from and against any and all claims, penalties, demands, causes of
actions, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, expenses, including reasonable
attorney's fees, in law or in equity, of any kind or nature whatsoever, arising
out of or in any manner directly or indirectly related to the acts or omissions
of GHC in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any
claims resulting from a failure to pay for any products and services purchased
by GHC or any of its Facilities.

                  10.2 Tidewater shall indemnify and hold harmless GHC and its
respective affiliates, agents, officers, directors and employees from and
against any and all claims, penalties, demands, causes of actions, damages,
losses, liabilities, costs, expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, in
law or in equity, of any kind or nature whatsoever, arising out of or in any
manner directly or indirectly related to the acts or omissions of Tidewater in
connection with this Agreement.

                  10.3 The provisions of Sections 10.1 and 10.2 shall survive
termination of this Agreement.

         11. Independent Contractor. The parties acknowledge and agree that
Tidewater is acting as an independent contractor and not as the agent, partner
or employee of GHC. This Agreement shall not create a joint venture, partnership
or other joint business relationship. As an independent contractor, Tidewater is
not exclusively limited to performing services for GHC and is entitled to
provide services for parties other than GHC.

         12. Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended, modified or
varied only by agreement in writing, duly executed by the party against whom
enforcement of any amendment, waiver, change, modification, consent or discharge
is sought. The waiver of any breach of any term or condition of this Agreement
shall not be deemed to constitute the continuing waiver of the same or any other
term or condition.

         13. Jurisdiction. Any and all disputes arising under or related to the
Agreement shall be subject exclusively to the jurisdiction of the appropriate
state or federal court in the State of Maryland, City of Baltimore.

         14. Headings. The captions herein have been inserted solely for
convenience of reference and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement, nor
shall they affect the meaning, construction or effect of this Agreement.

         15. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth all of the promises,
covenants, agreements, conditions and undertakings between the parties with
respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior
understandings, agreements or arrangements between them, including directly
between a Facility and Tidewater with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement.

                                       -7-


         16. Arbitration. The parties agree to submit any dispute arising under
this Agreement to arbitration by the American Arbitration Association or such
other arbitrator and upon such arbitration procedures as the parties may agree,
and the decision of such arbitration shall be binding upon Tidewater and GHC.

         17. HIPAA.

                  17.1 Privacy Rule Compliance. Tidewater, to the extent it is
deemed a "Business Associate" of GHC or any Facility under the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA"), agrees to comply with all
applicable provisions of HIPAA, including the privacy provisions, as such are
implemented and revised from time to time. Tidewater further agrees that it
will: (i) not use or disclose Protected Health Information ("PHI") obtained or
accessible by it as a result of its performance under the Agreement other than
as permitted or required by this Agreement or by law; (ii) use appropriate
safeguards to prevent use of disclosure of such PHI except as permitted by the
Agreement; (iii) mitigate, to the extent practicable, any harmful effect known
to Tidewater of a use or disclosure of PHI by Tidewater in violation of the
requirements of this Agreement; (iv) report to GHC as the "Covered Entity" under
HIPAA any use or disclosure of PHI not provided for in the Agreement of which it
becomes aware; (v) ensure that any agents, including subcontractors, to whom it
provides PHI, or who have access to PHI, agree to the same restrictions and
conditions that apply to Business Associate with respect to such PHI; (vi) make
available PHI to the individual who has a right of access under State and/or
Federal law or regulation; (vii) make available PHI for amendment and
incorporate any amendments to PHI; (viii) make available the information
required to provide an accounting of disclosures; and (ix) make its internal
practices, books and records relating to the use and disclosure of PHI received
or obtained from GHC, or created or received by Tidewater available to the
Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services for determining
Tidewater's compliance with Federal regulations.

                  17.2 Transaction and Security Regulations Compliance. To the
extent the Agreement involves the exchange of information using Electronic Media
in a transaction, GHC and Tidewater agree to comply with the requirements
contained in 45 CFR Part 1, Section 162.915, as amended from time to time. Upon
the effective date and for so long as PHI is transmitted between the parties
using Electronic Media, Tidewater shall protect the integrity, privacy and
availability of such PHI by implementing appropriate and commercially reasonable
administrative procedures, physical safeguards, technical security services and
technical security mechanisms with respect to Tidewater's facilities, software
and systems, all as required by, and more specifically set forth in, the Federal
Transaction Regulations and the Federal Security Regulations.

                  17.3 HIPAA Termination Right. In the event that Tidewater
materially breaches any of the provisions of this section 17, or declines to
implement any changes that are required or reasonably requested to ensure
material compliance with HIPAA and related laws and regulations, GHC may
terminate the Agreement upon written notice to Tidewater in accordance with the
notice and cure provisions of section 3.2 above.

                                       -8-


                  17.4 Effect of Termination. Upon termination of the Agreement
for any reason, Tidewater, if feasible, will return or destroy all PHI received
from, or created or received by Tidewater on behalf of GHC that Tidewater still
maintains in any form and retain no copies of such information or, if such
return or destruction is not feasible, shall notify GHC of the condition that
makes the return or destruction of PHI not feasible and shall extend the
protections of this Agreement to the PHI and limit further uses and disclosures
to those purposes that make the return or destruction of the PHI infeasible for
so long as Tidewater maintains such PHI. The provisions of this provision shall
survive the expiration or termination of the Agreement.

         18. Access to Books and Records. Pursuant to Section 1395X(v)(1)(I) of
Title 42 of the United States Code and applicable rules and regulations
thereunder, until the expiration of four (4) years after the termination of his
Agreement, Tidewater shall make available, upon appropriate written request by
the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, the
Comptroller General of the United States General Accounting Office, or the
applicable state agencies or departments, or any of their duly authorized
representatives a copy of this Agreement and such books, documents and records
as are necessary to certify the nature and extent of the costs of the services
provided by Tidewater under this Agreement. Tidewater further agrees that in the
event it carries out any of its duties under this Agreement through a
subcontract with a value or cost of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) or more over
a 12 month period, such subcontract shall contain a clause identical to that
contained in the first sentence of this Section.

         19. Notices. Any notice, request, demand, consent, approval or other

hand, or (ii) upon receipt if delivery is by telecopier, or (iii) the first
business day following delivery to any nationally recognized overnight delivery
service, or (iv) five (5) days after it is deposited in the United States mail,
