1813094 in favor of Continental Health Properties of Thomasville, LLC (the

         The further covenants, agreements, restrictions and limitations set
forth in the Master Amendment, as amended, are incorporated by reference herein
and made a part hereof.

         This Replacement Reduced and Modified Renewal Revolving Promissory Note
is a reduction and modification of the Revolving Promissory Note dated December
27, 1996, in the original amount of $10,000,000.00, as amended, and is a
reduction and replacement of that


                                       1


Reduced and Modified Renewal Revolving Promissory Note dated December 15, 2002
and is being executed in accordance with the terms of the Fifth Amendment to
Master Amendment to Loan Documents and Agreement dated October 29, 2004. This
Replacement Reduced and Modified Renewal Revolving Promissory Note (and any and
all extensions, modifications, renewals or amendments thereof) is (1) secured by
the collateral described or referred to in the Loan Documents, as defined in the
Master Amendment, and (2) the breach or occurrence of a default under the Loan
Documents, at the option of the Bank, will constitute a default hereunder.

         Both principal and interest due on this Replacement Reduced and
Modified Renewal Revolving Promissory Note are payable in Nashville, Tennessee,
at par in lawful money of the United States of America.

         Prepayment may be made at any time without premium.

         Time is of the essence of this Replacement Reduced and Modified Renewal
Revolving Promissory Note. Upon the occurrence of any default, at the option of
holder and without further notice to obligor, all accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, shall be added to the outstanding principal balance hereof, and the
entire outstanding principal balance, as so adjusted, shall bear interest
thereafter until paid at an annual rate equal to the Default Rate, regardless of
whether or not there has been an acceleration of the payment of principal as set
forth herein. All such interest shall be paid at the time of and as a condition
precedent to the curing of any such default. Failure of the holder to exercise
this right of accelerating the maturity of the debt, or indulgence granted from
time to time, shall in no event be considered as a waiver of said right of
acceleration or stop the holder from exercising said right. Interest shall be
computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting
of three hundred and sixty (360) days.

         If default is made in the payment of any payment due hereunder when the
same shall become due or mature, or if default is made in the payment of the
indebtedness hereunder at maturity, or in the event of default in or breach of
any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Loan Documents or any
instrument(s) given to evidence or secure this Renewal Revolving Promissory
Note, then at the election of the legal holder hereof, at any time thereafter
made and without demand or notice, the owner and holder of this Replacement
Reduced and Modified Renewal Revolving Promissory Note shall have the right to
declare all sums unpaid hereon at once due and payable. In the event of such
default, and the same is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, or a
suit is filed hereon, or if the proceedings are held in bankruptcy,
receivership, or the reorganization of Borrower, or any person or entity
constituting Borrower if Borrower is, or is composed of, more than one person or
entity, or any guarantor or surety of this Replacement Reduced and Modified
Renewal Revolving Promissory Note, or other legal or judicial proceedings for
the collection hereof, the undersigned shall pay in addition to the owner and
holder of this Replacement Reduced and Modified Renewal Revolving Promissory
Note, all court costs and costs of collection, enforcement or protection of the
rights or collateral of Bank hereunder including reasonable attorney's fees.

         Borrower and all endorsers and signers hereof, and each of them,
expressly waive demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor, protest,
notice of protest, and diligence in collection and all other notices or demands
whatsoever with respect to this Replacement


                                       2



Reduced and Modified Renewal Revolving Promissory Note or the enforcement hereof
and consent that the time of said payments or any part thereof may be extended
by the holder hereof and as sent to any substitution, exchange, or release of
collateral permitted by the holder hereof, all without and anywise modifying,
altering, releasing, affecting or limiting their respective liability. This
Replacement Reduced and Modified Renewal Revolving Promissory Note may not be
changed orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against
whom enforcement of any waiver, change, modification or discharge is sought.

         The term obligor, as used in this Replacement Reduced and Modified
Renewal Revolving Promissory Note, shall mean all parties, and each of them,
directly or indirectly obligated for the indebtedness that this Replacement
Reduced and Modified Renewal Revolving Promissory Note evidences, whether as
principal, maker, endorser, surety, guarantor or otherwise.

         In no event (including but not limited to prepayment, default, demand
for payment, or acceleration of maturity) shall the interest taken, reserved,
contracted for, charged or received in connection herewith under the Loan
Documents or otherwise, exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law
(the "Maximum Amount"). Interest would otherwise be payable in excess of the
Maximum Amount, then ipso facto, such document shall be reformed and the
interest payable reduced to the Maximum Amount, without necessity of execution
of any amendment or new document. If Bank ever receives interest in an amount
which apart from this provision would exceed the maximum amount, the excess
shall, without penalty, be applied to the unpaid principal balance of the loan
obligations in inverse order of maturity of installments and not to the payment
of interest, or be refunded to the Borrower, at the election of the Bank in its
full discretion or as required by applicable law.

         This instrument shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Tennessee, except as such may be preempted by applicable laws of the United
States of America governing the charging or receiving of interest.

         The provisions hereof shall be binding upon the parties, their
successors and assigns. The provisions hereof are severable such that the
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Replacement Reduced and Modified Renewal
Revolving Promissory Note has been duly executed by the undersigned the day and
year first above written.
