In the event the Trustee or any Beneficiary acquires any Assisted Living Facility through foreclosure or otherwise, under current law neither the Trustee nor any such Beneficiary nor a subsequent manager, a subsequent lessee or any subsequent purchaser (through foreclosure or otherwise) must obtain a CON prior to applying for or receiving a license to operate the Assisted Living Facility and certification to receive Medicare and Medicaid payments (and their successor programs) for patients having coverage thereunder, provided that (i) the number of beds and the scope of services provided are not changed and (ii) that the Trustee, Beneficiary or subsequent manager, lessee or purchaser submits prior notification of such change to the applicable regulatory agency. 3.12 MAINTAIN BED CAPACITY . Neither Lessee, any Sublessee nor the Manager has granted to any third party the right to reduce the number of licensed beds in any Assisted Living Facility or to apply for approval to transfer the right to any of the licensed Assisted Living Facility beds to any other location. Except as expressly permitted otherwise under the Trust Agreement, Lessee shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, the number of Available Beds at each Assisted Living Facility set forth in SCHEDULE 3.11-1 and within a variance of ten percent (10%) shall maintain or cause to be maintained the number of beds at each Assisted Living Facility at the licensure/certification levels set forth in SCHEDULE 3.11-1. 3.13 PAYMENT OF TAXES AND PROPERTY IMPOSITIONS . Lessee has timely filed all federal, state, and local tax returns which it is required to file and has timely paid, or made adequate provision for the payment of, all taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges upon such Person and upon its properties, assets, income and franchises, including without limitation, provider taxes. All such returns and reports are complete and accurate in all respects and none of the United States income tax returns of Lessee are under audit. There is not presently pending (and to the best of Lessee's knowledge, after due inquiry, there is not contemplated) any special assessment against any Property, the Improvements, any other Collateral, or any part thereof except as may be set forth in any of the Title Policies. No part of any Property is included or assessed under or as part of another tax lot or parcel comprising property other than such Property, and no part of any other property is included or assessed under or as part of the tax lots or parcels comprising any Property. No tax liens have been filed and to the best knowledge of Lessee, no claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes. The -38- 39 charges, accruals and reserves on the books of Lessee in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are in accordance with GAAP. 3.14 TITLE TO COLLATERAL . Borrower and Lessee, collectively, have good and marketable fee simple title to all of the Collateral, subject to no lien, mortgage, pledge, encroachment, zoning violation, or encumbrance, except Permitted Liens and except as set forth on Schedule 3.9, none of which Liens materially interfere with the security intended to be provided by the Mortgages or the current use of the Properties and the Improvements. All Improvements situated on the Properties are situated wholly within the boundaries of respective parcels comprising such Property, except as disclosed by the Surveys of the Properties. Borrower, Lessee or the applicable Sublessees own and will own at all times all personal property relating to the Properties, the Improvements and the Assisted Living Facilities (other than personal property which is owned by residents or tenants of the Properties), subject only to Permitted Liens. Without limitation of the foregoing, Borrower, Lessee or the applicable Sublessees own all furnishings, fixtures and equipment located at the Properties that are used by Lessee or the applicable Sublessees or which are necessary for or integral to the operation of the Assisted Living Facilities, free and clear of any lease, lien or encumbrance except the Permitted Liens and except as set forth on Schedule 3.9. No Person has any option or other right to purchase all or any portion of the Collateral or any interest therein. 3.15 PRIORITY OF MORTGAGES . The Mortgages constitute a valid first lien against Borrower's and Lessee's respective interests in the real and personal property described therein, prior to all other liens or encumbrances, including those which may hereafter accrue, excepting only Permitted Liens and except as set forth on Schedule 3.9, none of which Permitted Liens or other Liens materially interfere with the security intended to be provided by the Mortgages or the current use of the Property and the Improvements. 3.16 ZONING, OTHER LAWS . Each of the Properties is zoned for its current uses (including the use identified in the definition of Assisted Living Facilities) under applicable federal and state laws, which zoning designations are unconditional, in full force and effect, and are beyond all applicable appeal periods or is the subject of a valid variance or conditional use permit permitting such uses. The Properties, the Improvements and the Assisted Living Facilities and the operations thereon are in material compliance with all applicable covenants and restrictions of record, zoning, subdivision and land use laws, regulations and ordinances, all applicable health, fire, and building codes, and all other laws applicable to the Properties, the Improvements or the Assisted Living Facilities, including without limitation the Americans with Disabilities Act. Lessee does not know of any illegal activities relating to controlled substances on or at the Property or any portion thereof. All permits, licenses and certificates required for the lawful use and operation of the Properties and the Improvements, including, but not limited to, all certificates of occupancy, or the equivalent and all Regulatory Permits have been obtained and are current and in full force and effect or application therefor has been made. In the event that all or any part of the Improvements located on the Properties are destroyed or damaged, said Improvements can be legally reconstructed to substantially their condition prior to such damage or destruction, and thereafter exist for the same use without violating any zoning or other ordinances applicable thereto and without the necessity of obtaining any variances or special permits, other than -39- 40 customary demolition, building and other construction related permits. Each Assisted Living Facility contains enough permanent parking spaces (both regular spaces and handicap spaces) to satisfy all requirements imposed by applicable laws with respect to parking or a waiver of such requirements has been obtained. No legal proceedings are pending or, to the best knowledge of Lessee after due inquiry, are threatened with respect to the zoning of the Properties or any portion thereof. Neither the zoning nor any other right to construct, use or operate any Property is in any way dependent upon or related to any real estate other than such Property. No tract map, parcel map, condominium plan, condominium declaration, or plat of subdivision will be recorded or permitted to be recorded, by Lessee with respect to any Property or portion thereof without Noteholder's prior written consent. 3.17 CONDITION OF IMPROVEMENTS AND PROPERTIES . All Improvements are in good condition and repair. Lessee is not aware of any latent or patent structural or other significant defect or deficiency in the Improvements. City water supply, storm and sanitary sewers, and electrical, gas and telephone facilities are available to the Properties within the boundary lines of the Properties or through appurtenant easements, are fully connected to the Improvements and are fully operational, are sufficient to meet the reasonable needs of the Properties as now used or presently contemplated to be used, and no other utility facilities are necessary to meet the reasonable needs of the Properties as now used or presently contemplated to be used. The design and as-built conditions of the Properties and Improvements are such that surface and storm water does not accumulate on the Properties (except in facilities specifically designed for the same) and does not drain from the Properties across land of adjacent property owners in any manner which would have a Material Adverse Effect on any of the Properties or the Improvements. Except as may be set forth on the Surveys, no part of any Property is within a flood plain and none of the Improvements create any encroachment over, across or upon such Property's boundary lines, rights of way or easements, and no building or other improvements on adjoining land create such an encroachment which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All public roads and streets necessary for service of and access to the Properties for the current and contemplated uses thereof have been completed and are serviceable and are physically and legally open for use by the public. Any liquid or solid waste disposal, septic or sewer system located at the Properties is in good and safe condition and repair and in compliance with all applicable laws. 3.18 DISCLOSURE . No financial statements, financial document or any other document, certificate or written statement furnished to Noteholder by or on behalf of Lessee or Alterra for use in connection with the Loan, including without limitation all schedules and exhibits to this Agreement, contains any untrue representation, warranty or statement of a material fact, and none omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading. 3.19 LEGAL NAMES . To the best knowledge of Lessee, the legal names of the entities which have owned and operated the Assisted Living Facilities at all times during the preceding five (5) years are as set forth in SCHEDULE 3.19 hereto. 3.20 EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS . -40- 41 (a) Except as disclosed on SCHEDULE 3.20(A), neither Lessee nor any ERISA Affiliate maintains or contributes to or has any obligation (including a contingent obligation) with respect to any Plan.

Lessee and each ERISA Affiliate has complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of Part 6 of Title I of ERISA. (b) Neither Lessee nor any ERISA Affiliate maintains or contributes to any employee welfare benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA which provides benefits to employees after termination of employment other than as specifically required by Part 6 of Title I of ERISA. Neither Lessee nor any Person that is or was an ERISA Affiliate at any time during the immediately preceding six years has ever maintained, been required to contribute to, been required to pay any amount or had any obligation (whether actual or contingent) with respect to any Benefit Plan or Multiemployer Plan. Except as disclosed on SCHEDULE 3.20(B)-1, neither Lessee nor any ERISA Affiliate, nor any fiduciary of any Plan, has engaged in any nonexempt prohibited transaction described in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Except as disclosed on SCHEDULE 3.20(B)-2, neither Lessee nor any ERISA Affiliate has by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby, any obligation to make any payment to any employee pursuant to any Plan or existing contract or arrangement.

Each Assisted Living Facility and its operations, the Properties and the Improvements comply in all material respects with all covenants and restrictions of record and applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, Title 42 of the United States Code and related -41- 42 regulations, including the Medicare Regulations, the Medicaid Regulations, federal and state self-referral and anti-kickback statutes and regulations; Title 31 of the United States Code, including the False Claims Act; skilled nursing facility or assisted living facility licensure laws and regulations; public health statues and regulations; the Americans with Disabilities Act and the regulations thereunder, and all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations relating to zoning, setback requirements (except as may be shown on any of the Surveys for the Properties approved by Noteholder) and building codes and there are no waivers of any building codes currently in existence for any of the Assisted Living Facilities, Properties or Improvements. Lessee has filed in a timely manner all reports, documents and other materials required to be filed with any governmental bureau, agency or instrumentality (and the information contained in each of such filings is true, correct and complete in all respects), except where failure to make such filings would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Lessee has retained all records and documents required to be retained pursuant to any law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, policy, guideline or other requirement of any governmental authority, except where failure to retain such records would not subject such party or any of its Affiliates, partners, officers, trustees, or employees to criminal liability and could not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 3.24 MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS . The Management Agreements are each in full force and effect and there are no defaults (either monetary or non-monetary) by the parties thereto. 3.25 1934 ACT .

Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loan to acquire the Properties and pay transaction costs as contemplated by the schedule of sources and uses attached hereto as Exhibit G.

Lessee is not and will not be a "governmental plan" within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA and transactions by or with the Borrower Parties are not and will be not subject to state statutes applicable to Lessee regulating investments of and fiduciary obligations with obligations with respect to governmental plans. 3.29 YEAR 2000 . The management information systems (including all computer -42- 43 hardware and software), all equipment containing embedded microchips, of Lessee and Manager, whether owned, licensed, leased or otherwise utilized by Lessee and Manager, and required in the conduct of their respective businesses and the performance of all obligations of Lessee and Manager under the Transaction Documents ("LESSEE AND MANAGER MIS SYSTEMS"), and such systems of those parties with whom Lessee and Manager MIS Systems must interface, will, no later than August 30, 1999, be free of any material problem, infirmity or defect (and so tested and confirmed by Lessee and Manager to be free of any material problem, infirmity or defect) as respects to the "Year 2000 Problem" and/or any "9/9/99 Problem." To wit, the Lessee and Managers MIS System will be "Y2K COMPLIANT" such that the management information systems will not: (i) experience any material malfunctions or other material usage problem or failure in connection with the year 2000 and subsequent years as distinct from the 1900 years, or relating to improper expirations, terminations or data loss on or following September 9, 1999 as a result of the 9/9/99 Problem; or (ii) result in any material loss or liability sustained in connection with: (x) the conduct of their business or the performance of any obligations under the Transaction Documents, including but not limited to the recording, storing, processing, calculating, comparing, sequencing or presenting by electronic means of calendar dates or spans of time from, into and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries (including leap year calculations); and (y) the generation, transmission, delivery, receipt of and any use or reliance on information or calculations dependent on or relating to calendar dates or spans of time from, into and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries (including leap year calculations) (the "Y2K PROBLEM"). The cost to Lessee and Manager of any reprogramming and testing of Lessee and Manager MIS Systems and of the reasonably foreseeable consequences of any reprogramming required to assure that Lessee and Manager MIS Systems are Y2K Complaint, or of systems and equipment failures to such Lessee and Manager (including reprogramming errors and the failure of other's systems and equipment) will not result in an Event of Default or a Material Adverse Effect. To the best knowledge of Lessee, the Lessee and Manager MIS Systems are at present, and with ordinary upgrading and maintenance, will continue for the term of this Agreement to be sufficient to permit each of Lessee and Manager to conduct its business and to perform all of their respective obligations under the Transaction Documents without Material Adverse Effect. 3.30 LEGAL OPINIONS . Lessee has reviewed and is familiar with all opinions of legal counsel designated by Lessee and Alterra to be delivered in connection with the Loan.

(b) LEASE ISSUES. There are no legal proceedings commenced (or, to the best of the knowledge of Lessee, threatened) against Lessee by any tenant or former tenant. No rental in excess of one month's rent has been prepaid under any of the Residency Agreements or any material leases.

In connection with Lessee's or Guarantor's annual insurance review (which shall occur at least one time every 12 calendar months), Lessee shall be required to engage an Insurance Consultant (defined below) to undertake a review of Lessee's then existing insurance coverage in light of then current industry standards for hospital or health care services of the type similar to that in which Lessee is then currently engaged and based upon such review, Lessee shall either increase the amount of its coverages to meet such industry standards or shall be permitted to make reasonable modifications to the amounts and deductibles under the insurance coverages required to be maintained under this Section 4.4(a) provided that (A) prior to making any modification to any insurance coverage, Lessee shall deliver to Noteholder and Trustee a certificate of an Insurance Consultant or Insurance Consultants (hereinafter defined) indicating that the insurance coverages as proposed to be maintained are reasonable based on then prevailing insurance industry market conditions, customary for corporations engaged in the same or similar activities as Lessee and adequate to protect the Properties and the operations and (B) Trustee and Noteholder shall have delivered its prior written approval of such coverages, amounts and deductibles.

Provided that no Event of Default or Springing Lock Box Event has occurred and is continuing, proceeds paid under the policies described in Section 4.4(a)(vi) shall be made available to Lessee to be applied in accordance with the Flow of Funds Agreement. Each of the policies described in Sections 4.4(a)(iii), (iv), (v) and (vii) hereof, as of the Closing Date, must be written by an insurer or insurers each having a rating of A - or better from Standard & Poor's (provided, however, that within six (6) months after the Closing Date, such policies must be written by insurers having ratings of A or better from Standard & Poor's), and a Best rating of A- or better and otherwise reasonably acceptable to Noteholder and, the remaining coverages shall be provided by insurers reasonably acceptable to Noteholder. If Lessee shall fail to cause the insurance policies described in Sections 4.4(a)(iii), (iv), (v) and (vii) to be written by insurers having ratings of A or better from Standard & Poor's within six (6) months after the Closing Date (which condition may be satisfied by means of reinsurance arrangements acceptable to Noteholder in its sole discretion), such failure shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee may collect insurance proceeds paid under the policies described in Sections 4.4(a)(iv), (v) and (vii)-(x) above in connection with claims not in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (the "CASUALTY AMOUNT"), or in the event that such proceeds are collected by Noteholder or Trustee same shall be paid over to Lessee (without application of the conditions of Section 4.4(c) below), provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) Lessee gives notice to Noteholder and Trustee of the related fire or casualty within ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence thereof (which notice shall include Lessee's good faith estimate of the amount of the damage to the affected Assisted Living Facility) and (iii) Lessee applies such proceeds to the repair and/or restoration of the Improvements, Equipment and Inventory damaged in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. (c) Noteholder agrees that Trustee shall make the net proceeds of insurance -47- 48 (after payment of Noteholder's (and/or Trustee's) reasonable costs and expenses) available to Lessee for Lessee's repair, restoration and replacement of the Improvements, Equipment and Inventory damaged on the following terms and subject to satisfaction in Noteholder's (and/or Trustee's) discretion, of each of the following conditions: (i) At the time of such loss or damage and at all times thereafter while Noteholder (or Trustee) is holding any portion of such proceeds, there shall exist no Default or Event of Default; (ii) Noteholder (or Trustee) determines that the applicable Property, Improvements, Equipment, and Inventory for which loss or damage has resulted shall be capable of being restored to its preexisting condition and utility, in all material respects and in compliance with all applicable zoning, building and other laws and codes with a value equal to or greater than that which existed prior to such loss or damage ("PRE-EXISTING CONDITION"), there will be sufficient funds to so restore such Property, Improvements, Equipment and Inventory and such restoration shall be capable of being completed prior to the expiration of business interruption insurance as determined by an independent inspector; (iii) Noteholder (or Trustee) determines that Operating Revenues from the Assisted Living Facilities, after restoration and repair of the affected Property, Improvements, Equipment, and Inventory to the Pre-existing Condition and expiration of such stabilization period acceptable to Noteholder (or Trustee), will be sufficient to meet all operating costs and other expenses, payments for reserves and loan repayment obligations (including any obligations under any permitted subordinate financing) relating to the Assisted Living Facilities and maintain an LCR at least equal to (A) that existing at the origination of the Loan for casualties occurring during the first eighteen (18) months of the term of the Loan and (B) 1.4 : 1 for casualties occurring thereafter; (iv) restoration and repair of the affected Property, Improvements, Equipment, and Inventory to the Pre-existing Condition will be completed within one year of the date of the loss or casualty to such Property, Improvements, Equipment, or Inventory, but in no event later than six months prior to the Maturity Date; (v) less than fifty (50%) percent of the total floor area of the Improvements of the affected Property has been damaged or destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such fire or casualty; (vi) Within thirty (30) days following the date of such loss or damage, Lessee shall have given Noteholder and Trustee written notice of its desire to have such proceeds applied for purposes of restoration; and (vii) Within sixty (60) days following the date of notice under the preceding subsection 4.4(c)(vi), Lessee shall have provided to Noteholder and/or Trustee all of the following: -48- 49 (A) complete plans and specifications, satisfactory to Noteholder, and/or Trustee for restoration, repair and replacement of the Improvements, Equipment and Inventory damage to their Pre-existing Condition; (B) if the loss or damage exceeds the Casualty Amount, a duly executed fixed-price or guaranteed maximum cost construction contract together with a performance bond insuring completion of the work in accordance with such plans and specifications; (C) a certificate of insurance evidencing builder's risk insurance in such amounts as are reasonably satisfactory to Noteholder and/or Trustee and naming Trustee, for the benefit of the parties to the Trust Agreement, as loss payee; (D) Such additional funds as are required below; and (E) Copies of all Permits necessary to complete such work in accordance with the plans and specifications. (d) (i) Lessee shall notify Noteholder and Trustee promptly after it has knowledge of the commencement or threat of any action or proceeding relating to any condemnation or other taking, or conveyance in lieu thereof, of all or any part of any Property, whether direct or indirect (a "CONDEMNATION"). Lessee shall appear in and prosecute or defend any proceeding relating to any Condemnation unless otherwise directed by Noteholder or Trustee in writing. Borrower and Lessee each hereby authorize and appoint Noteholder and Trustee as attorneys-in-fact for Borrower and Lessee to commence, appear in and prosecute, in Noteholder's, Trustee's, Borrower's or Lessee's name, any action or proceeding relating to any Condemnation and to settle or compromise any claim in connection with any Condemnation. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and therefore is irrevocable. However, nothing contained in this Section 4.4(d) shall require Noteholder or Trustee to incur any expense or take any action with respect to any Condemnation. Borrower and Lessee each hereby transfers and assigns to Noteholder and Trustee all right, title and interest of Borrower and Lessee in and to any award or payment with respect to (A) any Condemnation, and (B) any damage to any Property caused by governmental action that does not result in a Condemnation. (ii) Noteholder agrees that Trustee shall make the net amount of such awards or proceeds (after deducting reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Noteholder and Trustee) from a partial (but not total) Condemnation of any Property, available to Lessee for the restoration or repair of such Property and Improvements subject to satisfaction in Noteholder's (and/or Trustee's) discretion of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.4(c); except that for purposes of this Section 4.4(d) all references in Section 4.4(c) to: (A) "Pre-existing Condition" shall be deemed to mean the restoration and/or repair of such Property and Improvements to an economically viable whole, in compliance with all applicable zoning, building and other laws and codes and (B) damage or destruction of the Improvements shall be deemed to mean the taking of -49- 50 any portion of such Property or Improvements pursuant to the Condemnation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the net proceeds of any award from a Condemnation affecting all or substantially all of any Property, shall be applied to the prepayment of the Loan Obligations (without premium). Unless Noteholder or Trustee otherwise agrees in writing, any application of any awards or proceeds to the Obligations shall not extend or postpone the due date of any monthly installments referred to in the Note, including any Imposition Deposits, or change the amount of such installments. Borrower and Lessee each agree to execute such further evidence of assignment of any awards or proceeds from any Condemnation as Noteholder or Trustee may require. (e) If Trustee elects to make the insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards available for the restoration and repair of the affected Property, Improvements, Equipment, and Inventory in accordance with the foregoing conditions, Lessee agrees that, if at any time during the restoration and repair, the cost of completing such restoration and repair, as determined reasonably by Noteholder or Trustee, exceeds the undisbursed insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards, Lessee shall, immediately upon demand by Noteholder or Trustee, deposit the amount of such excess with Trustee, and Trustee shall first disburse such deposit to pay for the costs of such restoration and repair on the same terms and conditions as the insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards are disbursed. If Lessee deposits such excess with Trustee and if, after completion of the restoration or repair, any funds remain from the combination of insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards and the funds so deposited with Trustee by Lessee, and if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then Trustee shall disburse to Lessee such remaining funds provided that Trustee shall not be obligated to disburse any amount in excess of the amount that Lessee shall have so deposited. (f) If the insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards are held by Trustee to reimburse Lessee for the cost of restoration and repair of the affected Property, Improvements, Equipment, and Inventory, Lessee shall restore the affected Property, Improvements, Equipment, and Inventory to its Pre-existing Condition or other condition as Noteholder or Trustee may approve in writing, and Lessee shall promptly begin such restoration and at all times thereafter diligently prosecute such restoration to completion. Noteholder or Trustee may, at Noteholder's or Trustee's option, condition disbursement of said proceeds or Condemnation awards on Noteholder's or Trustee's approval of such plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Noteholder or Trustee, contractor's cost estimates, architect's certificates, waivers of liens, sworn statements of mechanics and materialmen and such other evidence of costs, percentage completion of construction, application of payments; and satisfaction of liens as Noteholder or Trustee may reasonably require. If the insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards are applied to the payment of the Loan Obligations, any such application of proceeds to principal shall not extend or postpone the due dates of the monthly installments due under the Note or otherwise under the Loan Documents including, without limitation, any Imposition Deposits under the Mortgages, or change the amounts of such installments. Any amount of insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards remaining in Trustee's possession after full and final payment and discharge of all obligations secured hereby shall be refunded to Lessee or otherwise paid in accordance with applicable law. If any Property, Improvements, Equipment, and Inventory is sold at foreclosure or if Noteholder or Trustee acquires title to any Property, Improvements, Equipment, and -50- 51 Inventory, Noteholder or Trustee shall have all of the right, title and interest of Lessee in and to any insurance policies and unearned premiums thereon and in and to the proceeds resulting from any damage to, or Condemnation awards from any Condemnation affecting such Property, Improvements, Equipment, and Inventory prior to such sale or acquisition. (g) Noteholder and Trustee shall have a first lien and security interest in all building materials and completed repair and restoration work and in all fixtures and equipment acquired with such proceeds, and Borrower and Lessee shall execute and deliver, at Lessee's expense, such mortgage, deed of trust, security agreements, financing statements and other instruments as Noteholder shall request to create, evidence, or perfect such lien and security interest; and (h) In the event and to the extent such insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards are not required or used for the repair, restoration and replacement of the affected Property, Improvements, Equipment and Inventory for which a loss or damage has occurred or affected by a Condemnation, or in the event Lessee is not entitled to or does not timely make the election to have insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards applied to the restoration of such Property, Improvements, Equipment, or Inventory, or, having made such election, fail to timely comply with the terms and conditions set forth herein, or, if the conditions set forth herein for such application are otherwise not satisfied, then (subject to the terms of the Trust Agreement, if applicable) Noteholder shall be entitled, without notice to or consent from Borrower or Lessee, to cause Trustee to apply such proceeds, or the balance thereof, at Noteholder's option either (i) to the full or partial payment or prepayment of the Loan Obligations (without premium) in the manner aforesaid in accordance with the Trust Agreement; provided, however, that if such insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards are insufficient to pay the Required Casualty/Condemnation Payment and any other amounts due under the Transaction Documents as a result of such casualty or Condemnation, Lessee shall be required to pay to Trustee, for application in accordance with the Trust Agreement, an amount equal to such shortfall within ten (10) days after demand therefor by Noteholder or Trustee, or (ii) to the repair, restoration and/or replacement of all or any part of such Property, Improvements, Equipment and Inventory for which a loss or damage has occurred. Upon any payment in full of the Required Casualty/Condemnation Payment with respect to any Property pursuant to the foregoing provisions, provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Noteholder shall release or cause the Trustee to release the Mortgage encumbering the applicable Property and all other Liens and security interests relating to such Property. If Noteholder or Trustee has agreed to make insurance proceeds or Condemnation awards available to reimburse Lessee, as aforesaid, and whether or not such insurance proceeds are sufficient to pay for the costs of such restoration, Lessee must rebuild to the Pre-existing Condition or such other condition as Noteholder may approve in writing. (i) Lessee hereby appoints each of Noteholder and Trustee as attorney-in-fact to cause the issuance of or an endorsement of any insurance policy to bring Lessee into compliance herewith and, as limited above, at Noteholder's or Trustee's sole option, to make any claim for, receive payment for, and execute and endorse any documents, checks or other instruments in payment for loss, theft, or damage covered under any such insurance policy; -51- 52 however, in no event will Noteholder or Trustee be liable for failure to collect any amounts payable under any insurance policy. 4.5 FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION .

No course of dealing among Borrower, Lessee and Noteholder (or Trustee, Surety or Controlling Party) or any delay on the part of Noteholder (or Surety, Trustee or Controlling Party) in exercising any of its rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver of any of the Noteholder's rights.

All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. 9.11 SECONDARY MARKET TRANSACTIONS GENERALLY . Noteholder shall have the right to engage in one or more Secondary Market Transactions, and to structure and restructure all or any part of the Loan, including without limitation in multiple tranches, as wraparound loans, or for inclusion in a REMIC or other Securitization. Without limitation, Lender shall have the right to cause the Note and the Mortgage to be split into a first and a second mortgage loan, or into a one or more loans secured by mortgages and by the equity pledges and other security interests included in the Collateral on the date hereof, in whatever proportion Lender determines, and thereafter to engage in Secondary Market Transactions with respect to all or any part of the indebtedness and loan documentation. Borrower and Lessee acknowledge that it is the intention of the parties that all or a portion of the Loan will be securitized and that all or a portion of the Loan will be rated by one or more Rating Agencies. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.12, Borrower and Lessee further acknowledge that additional structural modifications may be required to satisfy issues raised by one or more Rating Agencies. As used herein, "SECONDARY MARKET TRANSACTION" means any of (i) the sale, assignment, or other transfer of all or any portion of the Loan Obligations or the Transaction Documents or any interest therein to one or more investors, (ii) the sale, assignment, or other transfer of one or more participation interests in the Loan Obligations or Transaction Documents to one or more investors, or (iii) the transfer or deposit of all or any portion of the Loan Obligations or Loan and Surety Documents to or with one or more trusts or other entities which may sell certificates or other instruments to investors evidencing an ownership interest in the assets of such trust or the right to receive income or proceeds therefrom. 9.12 COOPERATION; LIMITATIONS . (a) Borrower Parties shall use all reasonable efforts and cooperate reasonably and in good faith with Noteholder, at Lessee's expense, in effecting any such restructuring or Secondary Market Transaction. Such cooperation shall include without limitation, executing and delivering such reasonable amendments to the Transaction Documents as Noteholder may request, provided however that no such amendment in connection with any Secondary Market Transaction shall diminish the rights or materially increase the obligations of the Borrower Parties or SELCO under the Transaction Documents modify (i) the interest rate payable under the Note or the Rent payable under the Master Lease in any material respect; (ii) the stated maturity date of the Note, (iii) the amortization of the principal amount of the Note, (iv) any other material economic terms of the Loan Obligations or the Master Lease (including, without limitation, any modification described in Section 2.10(f) of the Trust Agreement)(any such modification described in the foregoing clauses (i)-(iv), a "MATERIAL MODIFICATION"). Such cooperation also shall include Lessee's using best efforts to obtain such certificates and assurances from governmental entities and others as Noteholder may request. In addition to their obligations under Section 9.2 hereof and subject to the limitations thereof, Lessee shall pay for any item that is requested by Noteholder in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction that was a -92- 93 requirement for the closing of Loan, but which was waived in connection with such closing. (b) Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that any amendment or modification of the Transaction Documents in connection with any Secondary Market Transaction does not constitute a Material Modification but in the reasonable opinion of an Approved Accountant would result in a loss of Guarantor's "synthetic lease" treatment of the Master Lease for financial accounting purposes (a "MATERIAL ACCOUNTING CHANGE"), notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Note or the other Loan Documents, Lessee shall have the option (the "NOTE PURCHASE OPTION") to purchase the Note for a purchase price (the "NOTE PURCHASE PRICE") equal to the Purchase Percentage (defined below) of the principal outstanding under the Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other Loan Obligations then outstanding (other than any Prepayment Consideration otherwise due under the Note). Lessee may elect to exercise the Note Purchase Option by delivery of written notice of such election to Noteholder within five (5) Business Days after Noteholder's request for the proposed modification of the Transaction Documents giving rise to such Material Accounting Change (which request is accompanied by a description of the principal terms of the proposed amendment) together with (i) the sum of five percent (5%) of the then outstanding principal amount of the Loan (the "INITIAL Deposit") by wire transfer to Noteholder of immediately available federal funds in accordance with Noteholder's instructions and (ii) a letter from an Approved Accountant or other evidence reasonably acceptable to Noteholder that such proposed modification would result in a Material Accounting Change. Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date of Lessee's exercise of the Note Purchase Option or as of the date of purchase of the Note and Lessee timely exercises the Note Purchase Option in accordance with the foregoing conditions, Lessee shall have the right pursuant to the Note Purchase Option to purchase the Note upon payment to Noteholder of the Note Purchase Price (net of the Deposit), by wire transfer in accordance with Noteholder's instructions, on or before the date (the "NOTE PURCHASE DATE") which is ninety (90) days after the date of Noteholder's request for the proposed modification of the Transaction Documents. Lessee may extend the Note Purchase Date for an additional ninety (90) days (the "OUTSIDE NOTE PURCHASE DATE") by delivery to Noteholder of notice thereof together with amount equal to an additional five percent (5%) of the then outstanding principal amount of the Loan (the "ADDITIONAL DEPOSIT"; together with the Initial Deposit, the "DEPOSIT") before the Note Purchase Date. If Lessee fails to extend the Note Purchase Option and does not consummate the purchase of the Note in accordance with the foregoing, on or before the Note Purchase Date, or having so extended the Note Purchase Option fails to consummate the purchase of the Note on or before the Outside Note Purchase Date, the Note Purchase Option shall be void and of no further force or effect whatsoever, Noteholder shall be entitled to retain the Deposit as liquidated damages for Lessee's failure to purchase the Note and Lessee shall be required to execute and deliver the proposed modifications to the Transaction Documents notwithstanding such Material Accounting Change. For purposes of the foregoing, the Purchase Percentage shall be equal to, as of any date of determination, a price, expressed as a percentage of par, at which Noteholder carries the Loan on its regularly maintained internal position sheets (and Noteholder shall provide Lessee upon request copies of relevant excerpts from its position sheets), adjusted to take into account any hedge profits and losses that would be incurred by Noteholder upon the simultaneous unwinding -93- 94 of any hedging arrangements entered into by Noteholder with respect to its rights under the Loan. 9.13 INFORMATION . The Borrower Parties shall provide such information and documents relating to the Borrower Parties, Manager, the Sublessees, the Assisted Living Facilities, Properties, Improvements and the business and operations of all of the foregoing as Noteholder may reasonably request in connection with any such Secondary Market Transaction. Noteholder shall be permitted to share all such information with the investment banking firms, Rating Agencies, accounting firms, law firms, other third party advisory firms, potential investors, and other parties involved in any proposed Secondary Market Transaction. Any such information may be incorporated into offering documents for the Secondary Market Transactions. Noteholder and all of the aforesaid third-party advisors and professional firms and investors shall be entitled to rely upon such information, and Lessee shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Noteholder from and against any losses, claims, damages and liabilities that arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such information provided by Lessee, any Sublessee or Alterra or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such information provided by Lessee, any Sublessee or Alterra or necessary in order to make the statements in such information provided by Lessee, any Sublessee or Alterra not materially misleading. Noteholder may publicize the existence of the Loan Obligations in connection with Noteholder's Secondary Market Transaction activities or otherwise. 9.14 ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS . In any Secondary Market Transaction, Noteholder may transfer its obligations under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents (or may transfer the portion thereof corresponding to the transferred portion of the Loan Obligations), and thereafter Noteholder shall be relieved of any obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents so transferred arising after the date of said transfer with respect to the transferred interest. Each transferee investor shall become a "NOTEHOLDER" hereunder and "LENDER" or other applicable party under the Transaction Documents. In the event Noteholder transfers any or all of its obligations to multiple transferee investors and such investors become "Noteholders", one such Noteholder or Servicer shall act as the representative for all Noteholders, and shall receive notices, approve or deny requests, and otherwise act on behalf of all Noteholders. 9.15 SUPERSEDES PRIOR AGREEMENTS: COUNTERPARTS . This Agreement and the instruments referred to herein supersede and incorporate all representations, promises, and statements, oral or written, made by Noteholder in connection with the Loan. This Agreement may not be varied, altered, or amended except by a written instrument executed by an authorized officer of the Noteholder. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. 9.16 INCONSISTENCIES . The Loan shall be governed by the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and in the event of any inconsistencies between the terms of the other Loan Documents and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control; provided, however that so long as the Trust Agreement shall be in effect, the Controlling Party shall be entitled to exercise the rights and remedies of Noteholder to -94- 95 the extent and as provided in the Trust Agreement. In the event of any inconsistencies between the terms of the Loan Documents and the Transaction Documents, the terms of the Loan Documents shall control, except in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Loan Documents and the Trust Agreement, in which event the terms of the Trust Agreement shall prevail. 9.17 CONTROLLING LAW . THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT THE VALIDITY, INTERPRETATION, ENFORCEMENT AND EFFECT OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS AND THE PARTIES HERETO SUBMIT (AND WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO OBJECT) TO NON-EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS AND AGREE TO VENUE IN ANY COURT IN SUCH JURISDICTION, INCLUDING ANY FEDERAL COURTS SITTING IN SUCH JURISDICTION. 9.18 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, SETOFF, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (A) ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE LOAN OR OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR (B) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR PERTAINING OR RELATED TO OR INCIDENTAL TO ANY DEALINGS OF NOTEHOLDER AND/OR BORROWER WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE EXERCISE OF EITHER PARTY'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE, OR THE CONDUCT OR THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES HERETO, IN ALL OF THE FOREGOING CASES WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. BORROWER AND LESSEE AGREE THAT NOTEHOLDER MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY, AND BARGAINED AGREEMENT OF EACH OF BORROWER AND LESSEE IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE ITS RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY AS AN INDUCEMENT OF NOTEHOLDER TO MAKE THE LOAN, AND THAT, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY WHATSOEVER (WHETHER OR NOT MODIFIED HEREIN) BETWEEN BORROWER, LESSEE AND NOTEHOLDER SHALL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY. 9.19 SUBROGATION . Borrower and Lessee acknowledge that the Surety may obtain rights in the Loan Documents, by way of subrogation, as a result of a payment under the Surety Bond and that such payments by Surety shall not reduce the Loan Obligations of Borrower and Lessee arising hereunder. 9.20 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS . It is the intent of the parties that the execution, delivery, and performance of the Loan Documents, the transactions provided for therein and -95- 96 contemplated thereby, and all matters incidental and related thereto or arising therefrom, shall be in strict compliance with, and that they shall each comply and, conform strictly with, all laws applicable to and governing the Loan Documents, as from time to time in effect, including applicable usury laws. This provision shall not be deemed to alter the choice of governing law in the Loan Documents. In furtherance thereof, the Noteholder and Borrower stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in, or pertaining to, the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract for, or obligating any Person to pay for the use or forbearance or detention of money, interest at a rate or in an amount in excess of the maximum rate or maximum amount of interest lawfully permitted or allowed to be, contracted for, charged, received, taken, or reserved under such laws. For such purposes as to each of the Loan Documents, (i) "interest" shall include the aggregate of all amounts which constitute, or are deemed to constitute, interest under the law applicable to the Loan Documents and the transactions thereunder, that is, contracted for, chargeable, receivable (whether received or deemed to have been received ), taken, or reserved under each such document, and (ii) unless otherwise specified therein, all computations of the maximum amount of interest permitted or allowed under such applicable law will be made on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year . Neither Borrower nor any other Person shall ever be required to pay interest on, or with respect to any of, the Loan Documents at a rate or in an amount in excess of the maximum rate or maximum amount of interest that may be lawfully contracted for, charged, received, taken, or reserved under such applicable law, AND THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL CONTROL OVER ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. If the effective rate or amount of interest which would otherwise be payable would exceed the maximum rate or maximum amount of interest, the Noteholder or any other holder of the Note or other obligation is allowed by such applicable law to change, contract for, take, reserve, or receive, or in the event the Noteholder or any holder of the Note or other obligation shall change, contract for, take, reserve, or receive money that is deemed to constitute interest which would, in the absence of this provision, increase the effective rate or amount of interest payable under the Loan Documents to a rate or amount in excess of that permitted or allowed to be charged, contracted for, taken reserved, or received under such applicable law then in effect, then the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable shall be limited to, and the Loan Documents shall in all respects be construed and applied so as to conform to, the maximum amount allowed pursuant to then applicable law, and, if no maximum amount or rate is then in effect, then as may otherwise be authorized and allowed under such laws, as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction. Any amount(s) charged, contracted for, received, taken or reserved that are deemed to constitute interest determined to be in excess of the. maximum rate or maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law shall be immediately returned or credited to the account of the Borrower or other Person entitled thereto upon such a determination, including a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction. All amounts contracted for, charged, received, reserved, paid, or agreed to be paid in connection with any note or other obligation which would under applicable law be deemed "interest" (or if not so deemed, would be deemed an amount that would be included in the calculation of the maximum rate or maximum amount of interest allowed pursuant to applicable law), shall, to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full term of the Loan Documents and any loans, as the case may be; provided that, if the Note or other obligation is paid and performed in full prior to the end of the full existence thereof and the -96- 97 amount paid thereon exceeds the maximum lawful rate or amount, the Noteholder shall refund to the Borrower or such Person entitled thereto the amount of such excess, or credit the amount of such excess against the principal amount of such note or other obligation (as applicable) and, in such event, it is expressly agreed that the Noteholder shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any laws for contracting for, charging, taking, reserving, or receiving interest in excess of the maximum rate. 9.21 INTERPRETATION .

Waiving Party (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to the obligations of the other Borrower Parties and (ii) waives any right to enforce any remedy that Noteholder now has or may hereafter have against any of the other Borrower Parties any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of such obligations or any other person, and Waiving Party waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to Noteholder to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of such obligations or any other liability of the other parties to Noteholder.
