false or misleading information which may become public concerning the Company
or Purchaser's relationship to the Company or this Agreement. If Purchaser
ceases to hold any Preferred Stock or Underlying Common Stock, Purchaser will,
if requested by the Company, return to the Company all documents furnished by
the Company containing Confidential Information which have not theretofore been
destroyed or returned to the Company.
3B. Inspection of Property. The Company shall permit any
representatives designated by Purchaser (so long as Purchaser holds any

visit and inspect any of the properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
(ii) examine the corporate and financial records of the Company and its
Subsidiaries and make copies thereof or extracts therefrom and (iii) discuss the
affairs, finances and accounts of any such corporations with the directors,
executive officers and independent accountants of the Company and its
Subsidiaries. The presentation of an executed copy of this Agreement by
Purchaser or any such holder of Preferred Stock or Underlying Common Stock to
the Company's independent accountants shall constitute the Company's permission
to its independent accountants to participate in discussions with such Persons.
3C. Designation of Directors. So long as the Preferred Stock
remains outstanding, the holders of the Preferred Stock shall have the right to
select two representatives to be elected to the Company's board of directors,
and the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such representatives to be
nominated for election to the board of directors and solicit proxies from the
Company's stockholders in favor of the election of such representatives. Such
representatives shall initially be Dana O'Brien and Martha Robinson. Purchasers
may in the future select an industry
8
<PAGE>
executive reasonably acceptable to the remaining members of the Company's board
of directors or any employee, partner, adviser or manager of Purchaser or its
general partner as representatives to be elected to the Company's board of
directors. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such representatives
to be elected to the board of directors (including voting all unrestricted
proxies in favor of such representatives) and shall not take any action which
would diminish the prospects of such representatives being elected to the board
of directors. The Company shall enter into indemnity agreements with any
directors selected by Purchaser that are similar in form and substance to those
that the Company has entered into with its other directors. The Company shall
use its best efforts to cause the appointment of at least one such
representative to be a member of the Compensation Committee and the Audit
Committee of the Company's board of directors. All reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses of each board member incurred in connection with attending regular and
special board meetings and any meeting of any board committee shall be paid by

each holder of Underlying Common Stock a portion of such stock or securities
equal to the quotient determined by dividing (1) the number of shares of Under
lying Common Stock held by such holder by (2) the sum of the total number of
shares of Underlying Common Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding which are not shares of Underlying Common Stock. Each holder of
Underlying Common Stock shall be entitled to purchase such stock or securities
at the most favorable price and on the most favorable terms as such stock or
securities are to be offered to any other Persons; provided that if all Persons
entitled to purchase or receive such stock or securities are required to also
purchase other securities of the Company, the holders of Underlying Common Stock
exercising their rights pursuant to this paragraph shall also be required to
purchase the same strip of securities (on the same terms and conditions) that
such other Persons are required to purchase and provided that, at the request of
any holder of Underlying Common Stock, the Company shall offer to such holder
stock or securities which have no voting rights (other than required by
applicable law) and which are convertible into voting securities on the same
terms as the Series A Preferred is convertible into Common Stock but which are
otherwise identical to the stock or securities being offered. The purchase price
for all stock and securities offered to the holders of the Underlying Common
Stock shall be
17
<PAGE>
payable in cash or, to the extent otherwise required hereunder, notes issued by

from the Company describing in reasonable detail the stock or securities being
offered, the purchase price thereof, the payment terms and such holder's
percentage allotment deliver a written notice to the Company describing its
election hereunder. If all of the stock and securities offered to the holders of
Underlying Common Stock is not fully subscribed by such holders, the remaining

their full allotment upon the terms set forth in this paragraph, except that
such holders must exercise their purchase rights within five days after receipt
of such reoffer.
(iii) Upon the expiration of the offering periods described above,
the Company shall be entitled to sell such stock or securities which the holders
of Underlying Common Stock have not elected to purchase during the 180 days
following such expiration on terms and conditions no more favorable to the
purchasers thereof than those offered to such holders. Any stock or securities
offered or sold by the Company after such 180-day period must be reoffered to
the holders of Underlying Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this paragraph.
Section 4. Transfer of Restricted Securities.
4A. General Provisions. Restricted Securities are transferable only
pursuant to (i) public offerings registered under the Securities Act, (ii) Rule
144 or Rule 144A of the Securities and Exchange Commission (or any similar rule
or rules then in force) if such rule is available and (iii) subject to the
conditions specified in paragraph 4B below, any other legally available means of
transfer.

<PAGE>
transfer or proposed transfer, together with an opinion in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Company's counsel of Kirkland & Ellis or other
counsel which (to the Company's reasonable satisfaction) is knowledgeable in
securities law matters to the effect that such transfer of Restricted Securities
may be effected without registration of such Restricted Securities under the
Securities Act. In addition, if the holder of the Restricted Securities
delivers to the Company an opinion of Kirkland & Ellis or such other counsel in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company's counsel that no
subsequent transfer of such Restricted Securities shall require registration
under the Securities Act, the Company shall promptly upon such contemplated
transfer deliver new certificates for such Restricted Securities which do not
bear the Securities Act legend set forth in paragraph 7C. If the Company is not
required to deliver new certificates for such Restricted Securities not bearing
such legend, the holder thereof shall not transfer the same until the
prospective transferee has confirmed to the Company in writing its agreement to
be bound by the conditions contained in this paragraph and paragraph 7C. The
cost of obtaining any opinion contemplated by this paragraph 4B shall be borne
by the holder of the Restricted Securities being transferred.
4C. Rule 144A. Upon the request of any Purchaser, the Company shall
promptly supply to such Purchaser or its prospective transferees all information
regarding the Company required to be delivered in connection with a transfer
pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
4D. Legend Removal. If any Restricted Securities become eligible for
sale pursuant to Rule 144(k), the Company shall, upon the request of the holder
of such Restricted Securities, remove the legend set forth in paragraph 7C from
the certificates for such Restricted Securities.
4E. Restriction on Transfer. The Preferred Stock may not be
transferred to a Competitor without the prior written consent of the Company;
provided that the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred
Stock and the Warrant shall not be subject to such restriction on transfer.

Section 5. Representations and Warranties of the Company. As a
material inducement to the Purchasers to enter into this Agreement and purchase
the Preferred Stock and the Warrant hereunder, the Company hereby represents and
warrants that:

corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Oregon and is
qualified to do business in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of
property or conduct of business requires it to qualify. The Company possesses
all requisite corporate power and authority and all material licenses, permits
and authorizations necessary to own and operate its properties, to carry on its
businesses as now conducted and to carry out the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. The copies of the Company's and each Subsidiary's charter
documents and bylaws which have been furnished to the Purchasers' special
counsel reflect all amendments made thereto at any time prior to the date of
this Agreement and are correct and complete.
5B. Capital Stock and Related Matters.
(i) As of the Closing and immediately thereafter, the authorized
capital stock of the Company shall consist of (a) 5,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, of which 1,666,667 shares shall be designated as Series A Preferred
(1,283,785 of which shall be issued and outstanding, and 382,882 of which shall
be reserved for issuance upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred) and
382,882 shares shall be designated as Series B Preferred (all of which shall be
issued and outstanding), and (b) 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock, of which
4,633,000 shares shall be issued and outstanding and 2,018,182 shares shall be
reserved for issuance upon conversion of the Preferred Stock or exercise of the
Warrant. As of the Closing, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall have
outstanding any stock or securities convertible or exchangeable for any shares
of its capital stock or containing any profit participation features, nor shall
it have outstanding any rights or options to subscribe for or to purchase its
capital stock or any stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for
its capital stock or any stock appreciation rights or phantom stock plans,
except for the Preferred Stock and except as set forth on the attached
"Capitalization Schedule." The Capitalization
20
<PAGE>
Schedule accurately sets forth the following information with respect to all
outstanding options and rights to acquire the Company's capital stock: the
holder, the number of shares covered, the exercise price and the expiration
date. As of the Closing, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall be
subject to any obligation (contingent or otherwise) to repurchase or otherwise
acquire or retire any shares of its capital stock or any warrants, options or
other rights to acquire its capital stock, except as set forth on the
Capitalization Schedule and except pursuant to the Articles of Amendment and the
Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended. As of the Closing, all of the
outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock shall be validly issued, fully

knowledge, contractual stockholders' preemptive rights or rights of refusal with
respect to the issuance of the Preferred Stock or the Warrant hereunder or the
issuance of the Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock or upon
exercise of the Warrant. The Company has not violated any applicable federal or
state securities laws in connection with the offer, sale or issuance of any of
its capital stock, and the offer, sale and issuance of the Preferred Stock or
the Warrant hereunder do not require registration under the Securities Act or
any applicable state securities laws. To the best of the Company's knowledge,
there are no agreements between the Company's stockholders with respect to the
voting or transfer of the Company's capital stock or with respect to any other
aspect of the Company's affairs.
5C. Subsidiaries; Investments. The attached "Subsidiary Schedule"
correctly sets forth the name of each Subsidiary, the jurisdiction of its
organization and the Persons owning the membership interests of such Subsidiary.
Each Subsidiary is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization, possesses all requisite limited liability
company power and authority and all material licenses, permits and
authorizations necessary to own its properties and to carry on its businesses as
now being conducted and is qualified to do business in every jurisdiction in
which its ownership of property or the conduct of business requires it to
qualify. The Company has made all contributions required to date pursuant to the
operating
21
<PAGE>
agreement for each Subsidiary, and all membership interests are owned by the
Company free and clear of any Lien and, except as described on the Subsidiary
Schedule, are not subject to any option or right to purchase any such membership
interests. Except as set forth on the Subsidiary Schedule, neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary owns or holds the right to acquire any shares of stock or any
other security or interest in any other Person.

of this Agreement, the Warrant, the Registration Agreement and all other
agreements contemplated hereby to which the Company is a party and the filing of
the Articles of Amendment have been duly authorized by the Company. This

<PAGE>
title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all of the material properties and

valid leasehold interest in, all assets necessary for the conduct of their
respective businesses as presently conducted.

thereof or interest therein.
(ii) Leased Properties. The Assets Schedule sets forth a list of
all of the leases and subleases ("Leases") of real property in which the Company
or any subsidiary has a leasehold and subleasehold interest (the "Leased Real
Property") (the Owned Real Property and the Leased Real Property are
collectively referred to herein as the "Real Property"). Each of the Leases are
in full force and effect and the Company holds a valid and existing leasehold or
subleasehold interest under each of the Leases. The Company has delivered to
Purchaser true, correct, complete and accurate copies of each of the Leases
described in the Assets Schedule. Except as described on the Assets Schedule,
with respect to each Lease listed on the Assets Schedule: (a) the Lease is

stock and warrants of the Company, as contemplated by this Agreement, will not
require the consent of the landlords or any other party under the Leases or
Seller shall obtain all necessary consents prior to the Closing. Purchaser
acknowledges that the Company subleases the operation of the beauty salon at
each property to a third party.
(iii) Real Property Disclosure. Except as disclosed on the Assets
Schedule, there is no real property leased or owned by the Company or any
subsidiary and used in the Company's business.
(iv) No Proceedings. There are no pending or, to the best of the
Company's knowledge, threatened proceedings in eminent domain or other similar
proceedings affecting any portion of the Real Property. There exists no writ,
injunction, decree, order or judgment outstanding, nor any litigation, pending
or, to the best of the Company's knowledge, threatened, relating to the
ownership, lease, use, occupancy or operation by any person of the Real
Property.
(v) Current Use. The current use or occupancy of the Real
Property does not violate in any material respect any instrument of record or
agreement affecting such Real Property or any covenant, condition, restriction,
easement, agreement or order of any governmental authority having jurisdiction
over any of the Real Property. No damage or destruction has occurred with
respect to any of the Real Property that, individually or in the aggregate, has
had or resulted in, or will have or result in, a material adverse effect on the
operation of the Company's business.
(vi) Condition and Operation of Improvements. All buildings and
all components of all buildings, structures and other
27
<PAGE>
improvements included within the Owned Real Property (the "Improvements"), are
in good condition and repair and are adequate to operate such facilities as
currently used. To the best of the Company's knowledge and belief, there are no
facts or conditions affecting any of the Improvements and the Leased Real
Property which would, individually or in the aggregate, interfere in any
significant respect with the use, occupancy or operation thereof as currently
used, occupied or operated or intended to be used, occupied or operated. To the
best of the Company's knowledge and belief, there are no material structural
deficiencies or latent defects affecting any Improvements. All water, gas,
electrical, steam, compressed air, telecommunication, sanitary and storm sewage
lines and systems and other similar systems serving the Real Property are
installed and operating and are sufficient to enable the Real Property to
continue to be used and operated in the manner currently being used and
operated. Each such utility or other service is provided by a public or private
utility or service company and enters the Owned Real Property from an adjacent
public street or valid private easement owned by the supplier of such utility or
other service. Each Improvement has direct access to a public street adjoining
the Real Property on which such Improvement is situated over the driveways and
accessways currently being used in connection with the use and operation of such
Improvement and no existing accessway crosses or encroaches upon any property or
property interest not owned by the Company. No Improvement or portion thereof is
dependent for its access, operation or utility on any land, building or other
improvement not included in the Owned Real Property.
(vii) Permits. All certificates of occupancy, permits, licenses,
franchises, approvals and authorizations (collectively, the "Real Property
Permits") of all governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Real
Property, required or appropriate to have been issued to the Company to enable
the Real Property in all material respects to be lawfully occupied and used for
all of the purposes for which it is currently occupied and used, have been
obtained by the Company and, to the Company's best knowledge, have been lawfully
issued and are, as of the date hereof, in full force and effect, with no
suspension, revocation or modification of any Real Property Permit pending or
threatened.
28
<PAGE>
(viii) Compliance with Laws. The Real Property is in full
compliance with all applicable building, zoning, subdivision, health and safety
and other land use and similar laws affecting the Real Property (collectively,
the "Real Property Laws"), and the Company has not received any notice of
violation or claimed violation of any Real Property Law. To the best of the
Company's knowledge, there is no pending or anticipated change in any Real
Property Law that will have or result in a material adverse effect upon the
ownership, alteration, use, occupancy or operation of the Real Properties or any
portion thereof. No current use by the Company of the Real Properties is
dependent on a nonconforming use or other approval from a governmental
authority, the absence of which would significantly limit the use of any of the
properties or assets in the operation of the Company's business.
5J. Tax Matters.

stockholder, creditor or other third party; neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has waived any statute of limitations with respect to any Taxes or
agreed to any extension of time with respect to any Tax assessment or
deficiency; the accrual for Taxes on the Latest Balance Sheet would be adequate
to pay all Tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries if their current
tax year were treated as ending on the date of the Latest Balance Sheet
(excluding any amount recorded which is attributable solely to timing
differences between book and Tax income); since the date of the Latest Balance
Sheet, the Company and its Subsidiaries have not incurred any liability for
Taxes other than in the ordinary course of business; the assessment of any
additional Taxes for periods for which Tax Returns have been filed by the
Company and each Subsidiary shall
29
<PAGE>
not exceed the recorded liability therefor on the Latest Balance Sheet
(excluding any amount recorded which is attributable solely to timing
differences between book and Tax income); no foreign, federal, state or local
tax audits or administrative or judicial proceedings are pending or being
conducted with respect to the Company or any Subsidiary, no information related
to Tax matters has been requested by any foreign, federal, state or local taxing
authority and no written notice indicating an intent to open an audit or other

Company nor any Subsidiary has made any payments, is obligated to make payments
or is a party to an agreement that could obligate it to make any payments that
would not be deductible under IRC (S)280G.

holders of Preferred Stock, Warrants and Underlying Common Stock harmless
against liability for the payment of, (i) the reasonable fees and expenses of
its special counsel arising in connection with the negotiation and execution of
this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the reasonable expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with
its due diligence review of the Company, in each case which shall be payable at
the Closing, (ii) the reasonable fees and expenses incurred with respect to any
amendments or waivers (whether or not the same become effective) under or in
respect of this Agreement, the agreements contemplated hereby, the Restated
Articles of Incorporation, as amended or the Articles of Amendment, (including,
without limitation, in connection with any proposed merger, sale or
recapitalization of the Company), (iii) stamp and other taxes which may be
payable in respect of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the
issuance, delivery or acquisition of any shares of Preferred Stock or any shares

<PAGE>
Articles of Amendment, and (v) the reasonable fees and expenses incurred by each
such Person in any filing with any governmental agency with respect to its
investment in the Company or in any other filing with any governmental agency
with respect to the Company which mentions such Person.
7B. Remedies. Each holder of Preferred Stock and Underlying Common
Stock shall have all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement, the
Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended and the Articles of Amendment and
all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under
any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have
under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this
Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting
a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any
provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law.
7C. Purchaser's Representations.
---------------------------
(i) Authorization. Purchaser has full power and authority to
enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, and this Agreement constitutes its valid and legally binding
obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(ii) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is
made with Purchaser in reliance upon its representation to the Company that the
Restricted Securities to be received by Purchaser will be acquired for
investment for Purchaser's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with
a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that Purchaser has
no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise
distributing the same. Purchaser further represents that it does not have any
contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell,
transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with
respect to any of the Restricted Securities.
(iii) Disclosure of Information. Purchaser believes it has
received all the information it considers necessary or
54
<PAGE>
appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Restricted Securities.
Purchaser further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and
receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the
offering of the Restricted Securities and the business, properties, prospects
and financial condition of the Company. The foregoing, however, does not limit
or modify the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 5 of this
Agreement or the right of Purchaser to rely thereon.
(iv) Investment Experience. Purchaser is an investor in
securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is
able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has
such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Restricted
Securities. Purchaser also represents it has not been organized for the purpose
of acquiring the Restricted Securities.
(v) Accredited Investor. Purchaser is an "accredited investor"
within the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 501 of Regulation
D, as presently in effect.
(vi) Brokerage. Assuming the Company's representations in
paragraph 5N are accurate, there are no claims for brokerage commissions,
finders' fees or similar compensation in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement based on any arrangement or agreement binding
upon Purchaser.
(vii) Restricted Securities. Purchaser understands that the
Restricted Securities it is purchasing are characterized as "restricted
securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being
acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and
that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold
without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 only in certain limited
circumstances. In this connection, Purchaser represents that it is familiar with
Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 144, as presently in effect, and
understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.
55
<PAGE>
(viii) Legend. Each certificate or instrument representing
Restricted Securities shall be imprinted with a legend in substantially the
following form:
"The securities represented by this certificate were originally issued on
December 16, 1996, and have not been registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended. The transfer of the securities represented by this
certificate is subject to the conditions specified in the Preferred Stock
and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 16, 1996, and as
amended and modified from time to time, between the issuer (the "Company")
and certain investors, and the Company reserves the right to refuse the
transfer of such securities until such conditions have been fulfilled with
respect to such transfer. A copy of such conditions shall be furnished by
the Company to the holder hereof upon written request and without charge."
7D. Treatment of the Preferred Stock. The Company covenants and agrees
that (i) so long as federal income tax laws prohibit a deduction for
distributions made by the Company with respect to preferred stock, it shall
treat all distributions paid by it on the Preferred Stock as non-deductible
dividends on all of its tax returns and (ii) it shall treat the Preferred Stock
as preferred stock in all of its financial statements and other reports and
shall treat all distributions paid by it on the Preferred Stock as dividends on
preferred stock in such statements and reports. The Company acknowledges and
agrees that the increased dividend rate on the Preferred Stock provided for in
the Articles of Amendment upon the occurrence of certain Events of Noncompliance
has been negotiated by (and is intended by) the Company and the Purchasers as a
reasonable increase in yield necessitated by the increased risk to the holders
of the Preferred Stock which would arise upon any such occurrence.
7E. Consent to Amendments. Except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the Company may take
any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be
performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the
holders of
56
<PAGE>
at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding Preferred Stock; provided that if there is
no Preferred Stock outstanding, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended
and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, only if the Company has
obtained the written consent of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the
Underlying Common Stock. No other course of dealing between the Company and the
holder of any Preferred Stock, Warrant or Underlying Common Stock or any delay
in exercising any rights hereunder or under the Restated Articles of
Incorporation, as amended or Articles of Amendment shall operate as a waiver of
any rights of any such holders. For purposes of this Agreement, shares of
Preferred Stock or Underlying Common Stock held by the Company or any
Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be outstanding. If the Company pays any
consideration to any holder of Preferred Stock or Underlying Common Stock for
such holder's consent to any amendment, modification or waiver hereunder, the
Company shall also pay each other holder granting its consent hereunder
equivalent consideration computed on a pro rata basis.
7F. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations
and warranties contained herein or made in writing by any party in connection
herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, regardless of any
investigation made by any Purchaser or on its behalf.
7G. Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, all covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf
of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of the
respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto whether so expressed or
not. In addition, and whether or not any express assignment has been made, the
provisions of this Agreement which are for any Purchaser's benefit as a
purchaser or holder of Preferred Stock, the Warrant or Underlying Common Stock
are also for the benefit of, and enforceable by, any subsequent holder of such
Preferred Stock, such Warrant or such Underlying Common Stock.
7H. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited
by or invalid under applicable
57
<PAGE>
law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition
or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement.
7I. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in
two or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of
more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute
one and the same Agreement.
7J. Descriptive Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings
of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a
substantive part of this Agreement. The use of the word "including" in this
Agreement shall be by way of example rather than by limitation.
7K. Governing Law. The corporate law of the State of Oregon shall
govern all issues and questions concerning the relative rights and obligations
of the Company and its stock holders. All other issues and questions concerning
the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement
and the exhibits and schedules hereto shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any
choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of
New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws
of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
7L. Notices. All notices, demands or other communications to be
given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall

LITIGATION SCHEDULE
-------------------
Section 5M
1. Sterling Park and certain of the Bowen companies are named as
defendants in Patrick A. Mason et al. v. Sterling Park Living Center,
et al., (No. 95-2-169546), originally filed June 30, 1995, in the
Superior Court for King County, Washington. The case was dismissed in
March of 1996 for plaintiff's failure to prosecute the case, and
plaintiff refiled on May 24, 1996. The plaintiffs, the estate of and
relatives of a deceased former Sterling Park resident, allege that the
defendants were negligent in their treatment of the resident in failing
to observe, monitor and change a catheter and to provide other care,
and that this resulted in the resident's wrongful death. The resident
recovered from complications arising from the infection associated with
the catheter. Later, after being transferred to a nursing home, the
former resident died. The plaintiffs also claim that the defendants
breached their contractual obligations to the resident. Defense of
these claims, with the exception of the contract claim, has been
accepted by our insurance carrier. Our legal counsel believes many
defenses are available to us.
2. Nayereh Madani has threatened to bring an action against Regent
Assisted Living for breach of a settlement agreement, including claims
for "discrimination, wage and hour violations, harassment, hostile work
environment, negligent supervision, negligent hiring, [and] for
retaliation [for making complaints]...". We dispute Ms. Madani's
charges and have refused Ms. Madani's offer to settle the dispute for
$200,000. This matter is proceeding to non-binding mediation and our
independent legal counsel believes we have a good change at resolving
the dispute for an immaterial sum.
3. A claim has been threatened against the Company by the heirs of Dr.
Egidio, a resident for a brief period at Sterling Park. Actual damages,
if any, are estimated to be de minimus, although plaintiff's counsel
has alleged that the consequential damages may be substantial. The
Company has not received a copy of a complaint that would permit it to
assess the merits of any claims that may be made.
4. The Company has filed an action against Clark County pursuant to which
the Company is asking the court to overturn a County ruling imposing a
single story building restriction on the company's Gowen-Buffalo site.

Companies executive assistance, accounting and financial management services,

Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 5 hereof.

For income tax purposes, the value of this Warrant as of the date

This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:
Section 1. Exercise of Warrant.
1A. Exercise Period. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 1E
hereof, the Registered Holder may exercise, in whole or in part, the purchase
rights represented by this Warrant at any time and from time to time on and
after the occurrence of a Trigger Event, until the fifth anniversary of the date
of such Trigger Event (the "Exercise Period"). The Company shall give the
Registered Holder written notice of the expiration of the Exercise Period at
least 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the end of the Exercise Period.
A "Trigger Event" shall occur if the Company's independent outside auditors have
not certified in writing to the Registered Holder of this Warrant within 30 days
after December 31, 1997, that the Company has, during the calendar year ending
December 31, 1997, opened and secured all necessary permits and approvals for
the operation of at least (i) at least ten new assisted living facilities (not
operated or managed by the Company as of the date hereof) and (ii) at least
1,000 units within all such new assisted living facilities. For purposes of
calculating the number of new facilities and units opened by the Company,
facilities and units in facilities in which the Company has an ownership
interest of at least 50% or a lease of at least 15 years (including any
available options or extensions of such lease) shall be counted in their
entirety, whereas facilities and units in facilities for which the Company
obtains a management contract but in which the Company does not have an
ownership interest of at least 50% or a lease of at least 15 years (including
any available options or extensions of such lease) ("Managed Facilities" and
"Managed Units," respectively) shall be counted as one-third of a facility and
one-third of a unit, respectively; provided that no more than three Managed
Facilities and 300 Managed Units (counting as one new assisted living facility
and 100 new units,
-2-
<PAGE>
respectively) shall be counted for purposes of determining a Trigger Event.
1B. Exercise Procedure.
(i) This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised when the
Company has received all of the following items (the "Exercise Time"):
(a) a completed Exercise Agreement, as described in paragraph 1C
below, executed by the Person exercising all or part of the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant (the "Purchaser");
(b) this Warrant;
(c) if this Warrant is not registered in the name of the Purchaser,
an Assignment or Assignments in the form set forth in Exhibit II hereto
evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the Purchaser, in which case
the Registered Holder shall have complied with the provisions set forth in
Section 7 hereof; and
(d) either (1) a certified or bank cashier's check payable to the
Company or a wire transfer to an account designated in writing by the
Company in an amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied
by the number of shares of Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise
(the "Aggregate Exercise Price"), (2) the surrender to the Company of debt
or equity securities of the Company having a Market Price equal to the
Aggregate Exercise Price of the Warrant Stock being purchased upon such
exercise (provided that for purposes of this subparagraph, the Market Price
of any note or other debt security or any preferred stock shall be deemed
to be equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount or liquidation
value thereof plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon or accrued or
declared and unpaid dividends thereon) or (3) a written notice to the
Company that the Purchaser is exercising the Warrant (or a portion thereof)
by authorizing the Company to withhold from issuance a number of shares of
Warrant Stock issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant which when
multiplied by the Market Price of the Common Stock is equal to the
Aggregate Exercise Price (and
-3-
<PAGE>
such withheld shares shall no longer be issuable under this Warrant).
(ii) Certificates for shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon exercise
of this Warrant shall be delivered by the Company to the Purchaser within five
business days after the date of the Exercise Time. Unless this Warrant has
expired or all of the purchase rights represented hereby have been exercised,
the Company shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto,
representing the rights formerly represented by this Warrant which have not
expired or been exercised and shall, within such five-day period, deliver such
new Warrant to the Person designated for delivery in the Exercise Agreement.
(iii) The Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to have been issued to the Purchaser at the Exercise Time, and
the Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder
of such Warrant Stock at the Exercise Time.
(iv) The issuance of certificates for shares of Warrant Stock upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder
or the Purchaser for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred
by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related issuance of
shares of Warrant Stock. Each share of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall, upon payment of the Exercise Price therefor, be fully paid
and nonassessable and free from all liens and charges with respect to the
issuance thereof.
(v) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of this
Warrant or of any share of Warrant Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of
this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this
Warrant. The Company shall from time to time take all such action as may be
necessary to assure that the par value per share of the unissued Warrant Stock
acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant is at all times equal to or less than
the Exercise Price then in effect.
(vi) The Company shall assist and cooperate with any Registered Holder
or Purchaser required to make any governmental filings or obtain any
governmental approvals prior to or in connection with any exercise of this
Warrant (including, without limitation, making any filings required to be made
by the Company);
-4-
<PAGE>
provided, however, that all such filings made or approvals obtained by or on
behalf of any Registered Holder or Purchaser shall be at its sole cost (except
as otherwise provided by paragraph 1B(iv)).
(vii) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of
any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a registered public
offering or the sale of the Company, the exercise of any portion of this Warrant
may, at the election of the holder hereof, be conditioned upon the consummation
of the public offering or sale of the Company in which case such exercise shall
not be deemed to be effective until the consummation of such transaction.
(viii) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out
of its authorized but unissued shares of Warrant Stock solely for the purpose of
issuance upon the exercise of the Warrant, such number of shares of Warrant
Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant. The Company shall take all such
actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Warrant Stock may
be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation
or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of
Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall
be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance). The Company
shall from time to time take all such action as may be necessary to assure that
the par value of the unissued Warrant Stock acquirable upon exercise of this
Warrant is at all times equal to or less than the Exercise Price. The Company
shall not take any action which would cause the number of authorized but
unissued shares of Warrant Stock to be less than the number of such shares
required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of the Warrant.
1C. Exercise Agreement. Upon any exercise of this Warrant, the
Exercise Agreement shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit I
hereto, except that if the shares of Warrant Stock are not to be issued in the
name of the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered, the Exercise
Agreement shall also state the name of the Person to whom the certificates for
the shares of Warrant Stock are to be issued, and if the number of shares of
Warrant Stock to be issued does not include all the shares of Warrant Stock
purchasable hereunder, it shall also state the name of the Person to whom a new
Warrant for the unexercised portion of the rights hereunder is to be delivered.
Such Exercise Agreement shall be dated the actual date of execution thereof.
-5-
<PAGE>
1D. Fractional Shares. If a fractional share of Warrant Stock would,
but for the provisions of paragraph 1A, be issuable upon exercise of the rights
represented by this Warrant, the Company shall, within five business days after
the date of the Exercise Time, deliver to the Purchaser a check payable to the
Purchaser in lieu of such fractional share in an amount equal to the difference
between the Market Price of such fractional share as of the date of the Exercise
Time and the Exercise Price of such fractional share.
1E. Exercise Events. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Section 1, each holder of the Warrant shall have the right, at its option, to
exercise the Warrant upon the occurrence of an Exercise Event. Each of the
following shall constitute an "Exercise Event" with respect to the Warrant:
(i) the sale or other transfer of the Warrant by PPEI or an affiliate
of PPEI, or by The Prudential Insurance Company of America ("Prudential") or an
affiliate of Prudential, to a party not affiliated with PPEI or Prudential;
(ii) the distribution of the Warrant to any limited partner of PPEI,
other than Prudential Equity Investors, Inc. or Prudential or any other
affiliate of PPEI or Prudential;
(iii) a sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company or
of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (in any transaction
or series of related transactions other than in the ordinary course of business)
or any other acquisition of the Company by means of a merger, a negotiated stock
purchase or a purchase pursuant to a tender offer for substantially all of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company;
(iv) if for any period of two consecutive fiscal quarters of the
Company, the quarterly financial statements of the Company reflect an aggregate
decline of 20% or more in the Company's consolidated net income from the fiscal
quarter immediately preceding such consecutive fiscal quarters, determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;
(v) if the quarterly financial statements of the Company for any
fiscal quarter reflect a decline of 50% or more in the Company's consolidated
net income from the immediately
-6-
<PAGE>
preceding fiscal quarter, determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles;
(vi) if for any period of two consecutive fiscal quarters of the
Company, the quarterly financial statements of the Company reflect an earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") that is more
than 20% less than the EBITDA contained in the then current annual budget
showing projected EBITDA for such quarter as approved by the Corporation's board
of directors from time to time;
(vii) any default or event of default under any agreement pursuant to
which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has incurred indebtedness for
borrowed money in excess of $500,000, unless and until such default or event of
default is cured or waived (provided that the holder of the shares proposed to
be converted is not a lender, or in the case of PPEI, Prudential or their
affiliates, neither PPEI, Prudential or any of their affiliates is a lender,
under such agreement);
(viii) if the total number of shares of Common Stock held by, or
obtainable upon the exercise of rights held by, PPEI and its affiliates as a
percentage of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on a fully-
diluted basis is less than 50% of such percentage on the date of original
issuance of the Preferred Stock;
(ix) if, during any twelve-month period, more than 30% of the
Company's directors have resigned or have been replaced; or
(x) upon the sale or transfer of more than 50% of the Common Stock
owned by the executive employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries as a group
immediately following the original issuance of the Warrant, or the sale or
transfer of more than 50% of the Common Stock owned by Walter C. Bowen
immediately following the original issuance of the Warrant.
Section 2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. In order
to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price
shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2,
and the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of this
Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this
Section 2.
-7-
<PAGE>
2A. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares upon Issuance of
------------------------------------------------------------------
Common Stock.
- ------------
(i) If and whenever on or after the Date of Issuance of this Warrant the
Company issues or sells, or in accordance with paragraph 2B is deemed to have
issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share less
than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or
sale, then immediately upon such issue or sale the Exercise Price shall be
reduced to the Exercise Price determined by dividing:
(A) the sum of (x) the product derived by multiplying the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such issue or sale times the number of shares
of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately prior to such issue or
sale, plus (y) the consideration, if any, received by the Company upon
such issue or sale, by
(B) the number of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately after
such issue or sale.
Upon each such adjustment of the Exercise Price hereunder, the number of shares
of Warrant Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted to
the number of shares determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Warrant Stock
acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment
and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such
adjustment.
(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no adjustment to the
Exercise Price or the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise
of this Warrant under this paragraph 2B as a result of issuances or deemed
issuances of Common Stock (A) with respect to the granting of stock options to
officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company and its
Subsidiaries or the exercise thereof for an aggregate of 600,000 shares of
Common Stock (as such number of shares is equitably adjusted for subsequent
stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends and recapitalizations and such
number shall include all stock options outstanding as of the date of the
Purchase Agreement) or (B) upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock.

<PAGE>
2B. Effect on Exercise Price of Certain Events. For purposes of determining
the adjusted Exercise Price under paragraph 2A, the following shall be
applicable:
(i) Issuance of Rights or Options. If the Company in any manner grants or
sells any Options and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable
upon the exercise of such Options, or upon conversion or exchange of any
Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Options, is less than the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting or sale
of such Options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of such Options, or upon conversion or exchange of
the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the
exercise of such Options, shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been
issued and sold by the Company at such time for such price per share. For
purposes of this paragraph, the "price per share for which Common Stock is
issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities" is determined by dividing (A) the total amount, if any,
received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting or sale
of such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration
payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus in the case
of such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate
amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the
issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange
thereof, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such
Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options. No further
adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such
Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options
or upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of
such Convertible Securities.
(ii) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner
issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the price per share for which
Common Stock is issuable upon conversion or exchange thereof is less than the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale,
then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to be outstanding and to
have been issued and sold by the Company at such
-9-
<PAGE>
time for such price per share. For the purposes of this paragraph, the "price
per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon conversion or exchange
thereof" is determined by dividing (A) the total amount received or receivable
by the Company as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible
Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if
any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (B) the
total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or
exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment of the
Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or
sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for
which adjustments of the Exercise Price had been or are to be made pursuant to
other provisions of this paragraph 2B, no further adjustment of the Exercise
Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
(iii) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If the purchase price
provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon
the issue, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at
which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common
Stock changes at any time, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such
change shall be adjusted immediately to the Exercise Price which would have been
in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still
outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration
or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted,
issued or sold and the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable hereunder
shall be correspondingly adjusted.
(iv) Treatment of Expired Options and Unexercised Convertible Securities.
Upon the expiration of any Option or the termination of any right to convert or
exchange any Convertible Securities without the exercise of such Option or
right, the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares of Warrant
Stock acquirable hereunder shall be adjusted immediately to the Exercise Price
and the number of shares which would have been in effect at the time of such
expiration or termination had such Option or Convertible Securities, to the
extent outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination, never
been issued.
-10-
<PAGE>
(v) Calculation of Consideration Received. If any Common Stock, Options
or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or
sold for cash, the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the
gross purchase price therefor. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of
the consideration other than cash received by the Company shall be the fair
value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of
securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company
shall be the Market Price thereof as of the date of receipt. In case any Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-
surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the
surviving entity the amount of consideration therefor shall be deemed to be the
fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving
entity as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than
cash or securities shall be determined jointly by the Company and the Registered
Holders of Warrants representing a majority of the shares of Warrant Stock
obtainable upon exercise of such Warrants. If such parties are unable to reach
agreement within a reasonable period of time, such fair value shall be
determined by an appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Registered
Holders of Warrants representing a majority of the shares of Warrant Stock
obtainable upon exercise of such Warrants. The determination of such appraiser
shall be final and binding on the Company and the Registered Holders of the
Warrants, and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne equally by
the Company on the one hand and the Registered Holders of the Warrants on the
other hand, pro rata on the basis of the number of shares of Warrant Stock held
by each such holder.
(vi) Integrated Transactions. In case any Option is issued in connection
with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising
one integrated transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to
such Options by the parties thereto, the Options shall be deemed to have been
issued without consideration.
(vii) Treasury Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
at any given time does not include shares owned or held by or for the account of
the Company or any Subsidiary, and
-11-
<PAGE>
the disposition of any shares so owned or held shall be considered an issue or
sale of Common Stock.
(viii) Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of
Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or
other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities
or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or
sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the
declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the
date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may
be.
2C. Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time
subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise)
one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater
number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Warrant
Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately
increased. If the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split or
otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of
Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately
decreased.
2D. Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Any
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale
of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or other transaction, which
in each case is effected in such a way that the holders of Common Stock are
entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock,
securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is referred
to herein as "Organic Change." Prior to the consummation of any Organic Change,
the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance satisfactory
to the Registered Holders of the Warrants representing a majority of the Warrant
Stock obtainable upon exercise of all Warrants then outstanding) to insure that
each of the Registered Holders of the Warrants shall thereafter have the right
to acquire and receive, in lieu of or addition to (as the case may be) the
shares of Warrant
-12-
<PAGE>
Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of
such holder's Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be
issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of
Warrant Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of
such holder's Warrant had such Organic Change not taken place. In any such case,
the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance satisfactory
to the Registered Holders of the Warrants representing a majority of the Warrant
Stock obtainable upon exercise of all Warrants then outstanding) with respect to
such holders' rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section
2 and Sections 3 and 4 hereof shall thereafter be applicable to the Warrants
(including, in the case of any such consolidation, merger or sale in which the
successor entity or purchasing entity is other than the Company, an immediate
adjustment of the Exercise Price to the value for the Common Stock reflected by
the terms of such consolidation, merger or sale, and a corresponding immediate
adjustment in the number of shares of Warrant Stock acquirable and receivable
upon exercise of the Warrants, if the value so reflected is less than the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or
sale). The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger or sale,
unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor entity (if other than
the Company) resulting from consolidation or merger or the entity purchasing
such assets assumes by written instrument (in form and substance satisfactory to
the Registered Holders of Warrants representing a majority of the Warrant Stock
obtainable upon exercise of all of the Warrants then outstanding), the
obligation to deliver to each such holder such shares of stock, securities or
assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be
entitled to acquire.
2E. Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the
provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such provisions
(including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights,
phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Company's
board of directors shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price
and the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of this
Warrant so as to protect the rights of the holders of the Warrants; provided
that no such adjustment shall increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number
of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable as otherwise determined pursuant to this
Section 2.
-13-

(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Company
shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holder, setting forth in
reasonable detail and certify ing the calculation of such adjustment.

least 20 days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a

or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic Change,
dissolution or liquidation.
(iii) The Company shall also give written notice to the Registered Holders
at least 20 days prior to the date on which any Organic Change, dissolution or

Section 3. Liquidating Dividends. If at any time on or after the date
this Warrant becomes exercisable the Company declares or pays a dividend upon
the Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of earnings or earned
surplus (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
consis tently applied) except for a stock dividend payable in shares of Common
Stock (a "Liquidating Dividend"), then the Company shall pay to the Registered
Holder of this Warrant at the time of payment thereof the Liquidating Dividend
which would have been paid to such Registered Holder on the Warrant Stock had
this Warrant been fully exercised immediately prior to the date on which a
record is taken for such Liquidating Dividend, or, if no record is taken, the
date as of which the record holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividends
are to be determined; provided that if the Liquidating Dividends consist of
voting securities, the Company shall make available to the Registered Holder of
this Warrant, at such holder's request, Liquidating Dividends consisting of non-
voting securities (except as otherwise required by law) which are otherwise
identical to the Liquidating Dividends consisting of voting securities and which
non-voting securities are convertible into such voting securities on the same
terms as Series B Preferred is convertible into Series A Preferred.
Section 4. Purchase Rights. If at any time on or after the date this
Warrant becomes exercisable the Company grants,
-14-
<PAGE>
issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock,
warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any
class of Common Stock (the "Purchase Rights"), then the Registered Holder of
this Warrant shall be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such
Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such holder could have
acquired if such holder had held the number of shares of Warrant Stock
acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date on
which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights,
or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of
Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase
Rights; provided that if the Purchase Rights involve voting securities, the
Company shall make available to the Registered Holder of this Warrant, at such
holder's request, Purchase Rights involving non-voting securities (except as
otherwise required by law) which are otherwise identical to the Purchase Rights
involving voting securities and which non-voting securities are convertible or
exchangeable into such voting securities on the same term as the Company's
Series B Preferred is convertible into the Company's Series A Preferred.

below:
"Common Stock" means, collectively, the Company's Common Stock and any
capital stock of any class of the Company hereafter authorized which is not

security may at the time be listed, or, if there have been no sales on any such
exchange on any day, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on
all such exchanges at the end of such day, or, if on any day such security is
not so listed, the average of the representative bid and asked prices quoted in
the NASDAQ System as of 4:00 P.M., New York time, on such day, or, if on any day
such security is not quoted in the NASDAQ System, the average of the highest bid

consecutive business days prior to such day; provided that if such security is
listed on any domestic securities exchange the term "business days" as used in
this sentence means business days on which such exchange is open for trading. If

Registered Holders of Warrants representing a majority of the Warrant Stock

Company and the Registered Holders of Warrants representing a majority of the
Warrant Stock purchasable upon exercise of all the Warrants then outstanding.
The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding on the Company
and the Registered Holders of the Warrants, and the fees and expenses of such

class of securities so issuable, then the term "Warrant Stock" shall mean one
share of the security issuable upon exercise of the Warrants or conversion of
the Subject Shares if such security is issuable in shares, or shall mean the
smallest unit in which such security is issuable if such security is not
issuable in shares.
Other capitalized terms used in this Warrant but not defined herein shall
have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
Section 6. No Voting Rights; Limitations of Liability. This Warrant shall
not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a
stockholder of the Company. No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative
action by the Registered Holder to purchase Warrant Stock, and no enumeration
herein of the rights or privileges of the Registered Holder shall give rise to
any liability of such holder for the Exercise Price of Warrant Stock acquirable
by exercise hereof or as a stockholder of the Company.
Section 7. Warrant Transferable. Subject to the transfer conditions
referred to in the legend endorsed hereon, this Warrant and all rights hereunder

principal office of the Company, for new Warrants of like tenor representing in
the aggregate the purchase rights hereunder, and each of such new Warrants shall

number of times new certificates representing the unexpired and unexercised
rights formerly represented by this Warrant shall be issued. All Warrants
representing portions of the rights hereunder are referred to herein as the
"Warrants."

the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificate
evidenc ing this Warrant, and in the case of any such loss, theft or
destruction, upon receipt of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company
(provided that if the holder is a financial institution or other institutional
investor its own agreement shall be satisfactory), or, in the case of any such
mutilation upon surrender of such certificate, the Company shall (at its
expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new certificate of
like kind representing the same rights represented by such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated the date of such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated certificate.

Stock obtainable upon exercise of the Warrants; provided that no such action may

the Registered Holders of Warrants representing at least 66-2/3% of the shares
of Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of the Warrants.
Section 12. Descriptive Headings; Governing Law. The descriptive headings

Company and its stockholders. All other questions concerning the construction,
validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by
the internal law of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice
of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or
any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any
jurisdictions other than the State of New York.

REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC.
REGISTRATION AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is made as of December 16, 1996, between Regent Assisted
Living, Inc., an Oregon corporation (the "Company"), and Prudential Private
Equity Investors III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Purchaser").
The parties to this Agreement are parties to a Purchase Agreement of even
date herewith (the "Purchase Agreement"). In order to induce the Purchaser to
enter into the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide the
registration rights set forth in this Agreement. The execution and delivery of
this Agreement is a condition to the Closing under the Purchase Agreement.
Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, capitalized terms used herein shall
have the meanings set forth in paragraph 8 hereof.
The parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Demand Registrations.
(a) Requests for Registration. At any time the holders of at least 66% of
the Registrable Securities may request registration under the Securities Act of
all or any portion of their Registrable Securities on Form S-1 or any similar
long-form registration ("Long-Form Registrations") or on Form S-2 or S-3 or any
similar short-form registration ("Short-Form Registrations") if available. All
registrations requested pursuant to this paragraph 1(a) are referred to herein
as "Demand Registrations". Each request for a Demand Registration shall specify
the approximate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered and
the anticipated per share price range for such offering. Within ten days after
receipt of any such request, the Company shall give written notice of such
requested registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities and shall
include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which
the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within 15 days
after the receipt of the Company's notice. The holders of Registrable Securities
shall be entitled to request two Demand Registrations in which the Company shall
pay all Registration Expenses. A registration shall not count as one of the
permitted
<PAGE>
Demand Registrations until it has become effective, and no Demand Registration
shall count as one of the permitted Demand Registrations unless the holders of
Registrable Securities are able to register and sell at least 90% of the
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration; provided
that in any event the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection
with any registration initiated as a Demand Registration whether or not it has
become effective and whether or not such registration has counted as one of the
permitted Demand Registrations. All Long-Form Registrations shall be
underwritten registrations, and at the election of the holders of a majority of
the Registrable Securities included in any Demand Registration, such Demand
Registration shall be a Short-Form Registration if the Company is permitted to
use the applicable short form. The Company shall use its best efforts to make
Short-Form Registrations on Form S-3 available for the sale of Registrable
Securities.
(b) Priority on Demand Registrations. The Company shall not include in
any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registrable Securities
without the prior written consent of the holders of at least 66% of the
Registrable Securities included in such registration. If a Demand Registration
is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in
writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable Securities and, if
permitted hereunder, other securities requested to be included in such offering
exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, which
can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range
acceptable to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities initially
requesting registration, the Company shall include in such registration prior to
the inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Securities the number
of Registrable Securities requested to be included which in the opinion of such
underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such
offering, pro rata among the respective holders thereof on the basis of the
amount of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder.
(c) Restrictions on Demand Registrations.
(i) The Company shall not be obligated to effect any Demand
Registration within 90 days after the effective date of a previous Demand
Registration.
-2-
<PAGE>
(ii) The Company shall be entitled to postpone for a reasonable
period of time (but not exceeding 120 days) the filing or effectiveness of any
registration statement otherwise required to be prepared and filed by it
pursuant to paragraph 1(a) if the Company determines, in its reasonable
judgment, that (a) the Company is in possession of material information that has
not been disclosed to the public and the Company reasonably deems it to be
advisable not to disclose such information at such time in a registration
statement or (b) such registration and offering would materially and adversely
affect any financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other material
transaction involving the Company or any of its Affiliates (as defined in the
rules and regulations adopted under the Exchange Act) and, in any such case, the
Company promptly gives the requesting Holders of Registrable Securities written
notice of such determination, containing a general statement of the reasons for
such postponement and an approximation of the anticipated delay or (c) such
other cause as the Company shall have been advised by its investment banker make
it undesirable or unpracticable to proceed with the offering. If the Company
shall so postpone the filing of a registration statement, the requesting Holders
of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw the request for
registration by giving written notice to the Company within 30 days after
receipt of the notice of postponement and, in the event of such withdrawal, such
request shall not be counted for purposes of the requests for registration to
which Holders are entitled pursuant to paragraph 1(a) and the Company shall pay
all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration. The Company may
delay a Demand Registration hereunder only once in any twelve-month period.
(iii) Holders of Registrable Securities shall use all reasonable
efforts to effect as wide a distribution of the Registrable Securities as
reasonably practicable, including, if such distribution is pursuant to any
underwritten offering, using reasonable efforts to secure the agreement of the
underwriters to the same effect.
(d) Selection of Underwriters. The holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities included in any Demand Registration shall have the right
to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) to administer the offering,
which must be reasonably acceptable to the Company.
-3-
<PAGE>
(e) Other Registration Rights. Except as provided in this Agreement,
the Company shall not grant to any Persons the right to request the Company to
register any equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible or
exchangeable into or exercisable for such securities, without the prior written
consent of the holders of at least 66% of the Registrable Securities; provided
that the Company may grant rights to other Persons to participate in Piggyback
Registrations so long as such rights are subordinate to the rights of the
holders of Registrable Securities with respect to such Piggyback Registrations
as provided in paragraph 2 hereof.
2. Piggyback Registrations.
(a) Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any
of its securities under the Securities Act (other than pursuant to a Demand
Registration) and the registration form to be used may be used for the
registration of Registrable Securities (a "Piggyback Registration"), the
Company shall give prompt written notice to all holders of Registrable
Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and shall include in
such registration (other than registrations only of shares issued (i) for the
purpose of acquiring another company or companies or (ii) pursuant to an
employee benefit plan) all Registrable Securities with respect to which the
Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within 20 days after
the receipt of the Company's notice.
(b) Piggyback Expenses. The Registration Expenses of the holders of
Registrable Securities shall be paid by the Company in all Piggyback
Registrations.
(c) Priority on Primary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is
an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing
underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of
securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number
which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range
acceptable to the Company, the Company shall include in such registration (i)
first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, the Registrable
Securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the
holders of such Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of shares
owned
-4-
<PAGE>
by each such holder, and (iii) third, other securities requested to be included
in such registration.
(d) Priority on Secondary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration
is an underwritten secondary registration on behalf of holders of the Company's
securities, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in
their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such
registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such
offering within a price range acceptable to the holders initially requesting
such registration, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the
securities requested to be included therein by the holders requesting such
registration and the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such
registration, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the
number of securities owned by each such holder, and (ii) second, other
securities requested to be included in such registration.
(e) Other Registrations. If the Company has previously filed a
registration statement with respect to Registrable Securities pursuant to
paragraph 1 or pursuant to this paragraph 2, and if such previous registration
has not been withdrawn or abandoned, the Company shall not file or cause to be
effected any other registration of any of its equity securities or securities
convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for its equity securities under
the Securities Act (except on Form S-8 or any successor form), whether on its
own behalf or at the request of any holder or holders of such securities, until
a period of at least 90 days has elapsed from the effective date of such
previous registration.
3. Holdback Agreements.
(a) Each holder of Registrable Securities shall not effect any public
sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Rule 144) of equity securities
of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for such securities, during the seven days prior to and the 180-day
period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten Demand
Registration, any underwritten Piggyback Registration in which Registrable
Securities are included (except as part of such underwritten registration) or
any other underwritten public offering of common stock of the Company, unless
the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree;
provided that the
-5-
<PAGE>
holders of Registrable Securities shall not be required to agree to a holdback
period longer than that agreed to by the officers or directors of the Company.
(b) The Company (i) shall not effect any public sale or distribution
of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for such securities, during the seven days prior to and during the
180-day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten Demand
Registration or any underwritten Piggyback Registration (except as part of such
underwritten registration or pursuant to registrations on Form S-8 or any
successor form), unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering
otherwise agree, and (ii) shall cause each holder of its Common Stock, or any
securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock,
purchased from the Company at any time after the date of this Agreement (other
than in a registered public offering, including pursuant to an acquisition or
merger or pursuant to an employee benefit plan) to agree not to effect any
public sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Rule 144) of any such
securities during such period (except as part of such underwritten registration
if otherwise permitted), unless the underwriters managing the registered public
offering otherwise agree.
4. Registration Procedures. Whenever the holders of Registrable
Securities have requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant
to this Agreement, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to effect the
registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the
intended method of disposition thereof (including the registration of the Series
A Preferred, the Series B Preferred and the Warrants held by a holder of
Registrable Securities requesting registration as to which the Company has
received reasonable assurances that only Registrable Securities shall be
distributed to the public), and pursuant thereto the Company shall as
expeditiously as possible:
(a) prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a
registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use
reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective
(provided that before filing a registration statement or prospectus or any
amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to the counsel
selected by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities covered by
-6-
<PAGE>
such registration statement copies of all such documents proposed to be filed,
which documents shall be subject to the review and comment of such counsel);
(b) notify each holder of Registrable Securities of the effectiveness
of each registration statement filed hereunder and prepare and file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission such amendments and supplements to such
registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be
necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period of not less
than 90 days and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect
to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement
during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the
sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement;
(c) furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities such number of
copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto,
the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each
preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as such seller may reasonably
request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities
owned by such seller;
(d) use reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable
Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as
any seller reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which
may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the
disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such
seller (provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally
to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to
qualify but for this subparagraph, (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such
jurisdiction or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such
jurisdiction);
(e) notify each seller of such Registrable Securities, at any time
when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the
prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement
of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, and, at the request of any such seller, the Company shall
prepare
-7-
<PAGE>
a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to
the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not contain
an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading;
(f) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each
securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then
listed and, if not so listed, to be listed on the NASD automated quotation
system and, if listed on the NASD automated quotation system, use its best
efforts to secure designation of all such Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement as a NASDAQ "national market system security" within the
meaning of Rule 11Aa2-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission or, failing
that, to secure NASDAQ authorization for such Registrable Securities and,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to arrange for at least two
market makers to register as such with respect to such Registrable Securities
with the NASD;
(g) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable
Securities not later than the effective date of such registration statement;
(h) enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting
agreements in customary form) and take all such other actions as the holders of
a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold or the underwriters, if any,
reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such
Registrable Securities (including effecting a stock split or a combination of
shares);
(i) make available for inspection by any seller of Registrable
Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such
registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by
any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's
officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all
information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney,
accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;
-8-
<PAGE>
(j) otherwise use reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and make
available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an
earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months beginning with
the first day of the Company's first full calendar quarter after the effective
date of the registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the
provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder;
(k) permit any holder of Registrable Securities which holder, in its
sole and exclusive judgment, might be deemed to be an underwriter or a
controlling person of the Company, to participate in the preparation of such
registration or comparable statement and to require the insertion therein of
material, furnished to the Company in writing, which in the reasonable judgment
of such holder and its counsel should be included; and
(l) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or
preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of
any common stock included in such registration statement for sale in any
jurisdiction, the Company shall use reasonable efforts promptly to obtain the
withdrawal of such order.
Each Holder of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being
effected shall furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding such
Holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Company may
from time to time reasonably request in writing in order to comply with the
Securities Act, which writing shall state that such information is being
provided specifically for use in the preparation of the related registration
statement. Each Holder of Registrable Securities as to which any registration
is being effected agrees to notify the Company as promptly as practicable of any
inaccuracy or change in information previously furnished by such Holder to the
Company or of the happening of any event in either case as a result of which any
prospectus relating to such registration contains an untrue statement of a
material face regarding such Holder or the distribution of such Registrable
Securities or omits to state any material fact regarding such Holder or the
distribution of such Registrable Securities required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the
-9-
<PAGE>
statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing,
and to promptly furnish to the Company any additional information required to
correct and update any previously furnished information or required such that
such prospectus shall not contain, with respect to such Holder or the
distribution of such Registrable Securities, an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then
existing.
Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that, upon receipt of any notice
from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in
paragraph 4(e), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement or prospectus
until such Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended
prospectus relating to such registration statement or prospectus, or until it is
advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable prospectus may
be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings
which are incorporated by reference in such Prospectus, and, if so directed by
the Company, such Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense)
all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder's possession,
of the prospectus covering the Registrable Securities current at the time of
receipt of such notice.
5. Registration Expenses.
(a) All expenses incident to the Company's performance of or
compliance with this Agreement, including without limitation all registration
and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky
laws, printing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, fees and disbursements
of custodians, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and all
independent certified public accountants, underwriters (excluding discounts and
commissions) and other Persons retained by the Company (all such expenses being
herein called "Registration Expenses"), shall be borne as provided in this
Agreement, except that the Company shall, in any event, pay its internal
expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its
officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of
any annual audit or quarterly review, the expense of any liability insurance and
the expenses and fees for listing the securities to be regis-
-10-
<PAGE>
tered on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the
Company are then listed or on the NASD automated quotation system.
(b) In connection with each Demand Registration and each Piggyback
Registration, the Company shall reimburse the holders of Registrable Securities
included in such registration for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one
counsel chosen by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities
included in such registration. (c) To the extent Registration Expenses are not
required to be paid by the Company, each holder of securities included in any
registration hereunder shall pay those Registration Expenses allocable to the
registration of such holder's securities so included, and any Registration
Expenses not so allocable shall be borne by all sellers of securities included
in such registration in proportion to the aggregate selling price of the
securities to be so registered.
6. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent
permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and
directors and each Person who controls such holder (within the meaning of the
Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in
any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in
any information furnished in writing to the Company by such holder expressly for
use therein or by such holder's failure to deliver a copy of the registration
statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto after the
Company has furnished such holder with a sufficient number of copies of the
same. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company shall indemnify
such underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls
such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent
as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the holders of
Registrable Securities.
-11-
<PAGE>
(b) In connection with any registration statement in which a holder of
Registrable Securities is participating, each such holder shall furnish to the
Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably
requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or
prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its
directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company (within the
meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material
fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary
prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or
alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such
untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so
furnished in writing by such holder; provided that the obligation to indemnify
shall be individual, not joint and several, for each holder and shall be
limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such holder from the sale of
Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement.
(c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give
prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to
which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice
shall not impair any Person's right to indemnification hereunder to the extent
such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such
indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such
indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim,
permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed,
the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement
made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects
not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and
expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such
indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment
of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such
indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such
claim.
-12-
<PAGE>
(d) The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such
indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company also
agrees to make such provisions, as are reasonably requested by any indemnified
party, for contribution to such party in the event the Company's indemnification
is unavailable for any reason.
7. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Person may
participate in any registration hereunder which is underwritten unless such
Person (i) agrees to sell such Person's securities on the basis provided in any
underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder
to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionaires,
powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents
required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; provided that no
holder of Registrable Securities included in any underwritten registration shall
be required to make any representations or warranties to the Company or the
underwriters (other than representations and warranties regarding such holder,
such holder's ownership of and right to transfer the Registrable Securities, and
such holder's intended method of distribution) or to undertake any
indemnification obligations to the Company or the underwriters with respect
thereto, except as otherwise provided in paragraph 6 hereof.
8. Definitions.
(a) "Registrable Securities" means (i) any Common Stock issued upon
the conversion of any Series A Preferred issued pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement or issued upon conversion of the Series B Preferred issued pursuant to
the Purchase Agreement, (ii) any Common Stock issued upon conversion of any
Series B Preferred issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (iii) any Common
Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrant issued pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement and (iv) any Common Stock issued or issuable with respect to the
securities referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above by way of a stock
dividend or stock split or in connection with a combination of shares,
recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other reorganization. As to any
particular Registrable Securities, such securities shall cease to be Registrable
Securities when they have been distributed to the public pursuant to an offering
-13-
<PAGE>
registered under the Securities Act or sold to the public through a broker,
dealer or market maker in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or
any similar rule then in force) or repurchased by the Company or any
Subsidiary. For purposes of this Agreement, a Person shall be deemed to be a
holder of Registrable Securities, and the Registrable Securities shall be deemed
to be in existence, whenever such Person has the right to acquire directly or
indirectly such Registrable Securities (upon conversion or exercise in
connection with a transfer of securities or otherwise, but disregarding any
restrictions or limitations upon the exercise of such right), whether or not
such acquisition has actually been effected, and such Person shall be entitled
to exercise the rights of a holder of Registrable Securities hereunder.
(b) Unless otherwise stated, other capitalized terms contained herein
have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
9. Miscellaneous.
(a) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not hereafter enter
into any agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with or
violates the rights granted to the holders of Registrable Securities in this
Agreement.
(b) Adjustments Affecting Registrable Securities. The Company shall
not take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to its
securities which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the
holders of Registrable Securities to include such Registrable Securities in a
registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement or which would materially and
adversely affect the marketability of such Registrable Securities in any such
registration (including, without limitation, effecting a stock split or a
combination of shares).
(c) Remedies. Any Person having rights under any provision of this
Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically to recover
damages caused by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to
exercise all other rights granted by law. The parties hereto agree and
acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of
the provisions of this Agreement and that any party shall be entitled to
specific performance and other injunctive relief from any court
-14-
<PAGE>
of law or equity of competent jurisdiction (without posting any bond or other
security) in order to enforce or prevent violation of the provisions of this
Agreement.
(d) Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only upon the prior
written consent of the Company and holders of at least 66% of the Registrable
Securities.
(e) Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this
Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to
the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto
whether so expressed or not. In addition, whether or not any express assignment
has been made, the provisions of this Agreement which are for the benefit of
purchasers or holders of Registrable Securities are also for the benefit of, and
enforceable by, any subsequent holder of Registrable Securities.
(f) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited
by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to
the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder
of this Agreement.
(g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two
or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more
than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one
and the same Agreement.
(h) Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement
are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this
Agreement.
(i) Governing Law. The corporate law of the State of Oregon shall
govern all issues and questions concerning the relative rights of the Company
and its stockholders. All other issues and questions concerning the
construction, validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement and the
exhibits and schedules hereto shall be governed by, and construed in
-15-
<PAGE>
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any
choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of
New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws
of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
(j) Notices. All notices, demands or other communications to be given
or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered personally to the

STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is made as of December 16, 1996, between Regent
Assisted Living, Inc., an Oregon corporation (the "Company"), Prudential Private
Equity Investors, III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Investor"),
and Walter C. Bowen (the "Original Stockholder"). The Investor and the Original
Stockholder are collectively referred to as the "Stockholders" and individually
as a "Stockholder." Capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 8
hereof.
The Investor shall purchase shares of the Company's preferred stock
and a warrant to purchase common stock pursuant to a purchase agreement between
the Investor and the Company dated as of the date hereof (the "Purchase
Agreement").
The Company and the Stockholders desire to enter into this Agreement
for the purposes, among others, of (i) establishing the composition of the
Company's Board of Directors (the "Board"), (ii) assuring continuity in the
management and ownership of the Company and (iii) limiting the manner and terms
by which the Original Stockholder's Stockholder Shares may be transferred. The
execution and delivery of this Agreement is a condition to the Investor's
purchase of the Company's stock and the contingent warrant pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained
herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as
follows:
1. Board of Directors.
(a) From and after the Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)
and until the provisions of this paragraph 1 cease to be effective, each holder
of Stockholder Shares shall vote all of his Stockholder Shares which are voting
shares and any other voting securities of the Company over which such holder has
voting
<PAGE>
control and shall take all other reasonably necessary or desirable actions
within his control (whether in his capacity as a stockholder, director, member
of a board committee or officer of the Company or otherwise, and including,
without limitation, attendance at meetings in person or by proxy for purposes of
obtaining a quorum and execution of written consents in lieu of meetings), and
the Company shall take all reasonably necessary or desirable actions within its
control (including, without limitation, calling special board and stockholder
meetings), so that:
(i) the authorized number of directors on the Board shall be
established at eight directors;
(ii) the following individuals shall be elected to the Board:
(A) two representatives designated by the Investor (the
"Investor Directors"), provided that the Investor Directors shall
initially be employees of the general partner of the Investor or
employees of the investment advisor of the Investor or its general
partner, and provided further that the Investor may subsequently
designate an industry executive as an Investor Director provided that
such industry executive is reasonably acceptable to a majority of the
other Directors;
(B) two members of the Company's management designated by
the Original Stockholder (the "Management Directors"), provided that
until the second annual meeting of the Company's stockholders, Walter
C. Bowen and Steven L. Gish shall serve as the Management Directors;
and
(C) four representatives designated by the Stockholders
(determined on the basis of a vote of a majority of the Stockholder
Shares held by the Stockholders), provided that such representatives
are not members of the Company's management or employees or officers
of the Company or its subsidiaries (the "Outside Directors");
-2-
<PAGE>
(iii) there shall be an executive committee, a compensation
committee and an audit committee of the Board, each with at least one
Investor Director as a member thereof;
(iv) there shall be a conflicts committee of the Board (the
"Conflicts Committee") to consider and resolve all conflicts of interest
matters presented to the Board, and the Conflicts Committee shall be
composed of two Outside Directors and the two Investor Directors;
(v) any other committees of the Board shall be created only upon
the approval of a majority of the members of the Board and each such
committee (if any) shall have at least one Investor Director as a member;
(vi) the removal from the Board (with or without cause) of any
representative designated hereunder by the Investor or by the Original
Stockholder shall be at the Investor's or the Original Stockholder's
written request, respectively, but only upon such written request and under
no other circumstances, provided that if any director elected pursuant to
subparagraph (ii)(B) above ceases to be an employee of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, he shall be removed as a director promptly after his
employment ceases; and
(vii) in the event that any representative designated hereunder by
the Investor or by the Original Stockholder ceases to serve as a member of
the Board during his term of office, the resulting vacancy on the Board
shall be filled by a representative designated by the Investor or the
Original Stockholder, respectively, as provided hereunder.
(b) The Company shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by each director in connection with attending the meetings of the
Board, and any committee thereof. So long as any Investor Director serves on the
Board and for three years thereafter, the Company shall make a good faith effort
to secure and maintain directors and officers liability insurance coverage: (A)
as of the Closing, in the amount of $2,000,000, (B) as of January 1, 1997, in
the amount of $3,000,000 and (C) thereafter, in such amounts as are customary
for publicly traded corporations of similar size engaged in similar lines of
business as reasonably
-3-
<PAGE>
determined by the Board; and the Company's certificate of incorporation and
bylaws shall provide for indemnification and exculpation of directors to the
fullest extent permitted under applicable law. In addition, the Company shall
enter into indemnity agreements with the Investor Directors in form and
substance similar to the indemnity agreements the Company currently has with the
Management Directors.
(c) The rights of the Investor under this paragraph 1 shall terminate
at such time as the Investor and its Affiliates hold in the aggregate less than
25% of the Stockholder Shares held by the Investor on the date hereof; provided
that the Investor may assign its right to designate directors hereunder to any
Person or group of affiliated Persons who acquire more than 50% of the
Stockholder Shares held by the Investor as of the date hereof.
(d) The rights of the Original Stockholder under this paragraph 1
shall terminate at such time as the Original Stockholder and his Permitted
Transferees hold in the aggregate less than 25% of the Stockholder Shares held
by such Persons on the date hereof.
(e) The provisions of this paragraph 1 shall terminate automatically
and be of no further force and effect upon the tenth anniversary of the date
hereof unless extended by the parties hereto.
(f) If any party fails to designate a representative to fill a
directorship pursuant to the terms of this paragraph 1, the election of an
individual to such directorship shall be accomplished in accordance with the
Company's bylaws and applicable law.
2. Contract Proceedings. The Company, the Original Stockholder and
the Investor hereby agree that:
(a) The Company shall have a right of first refusal on all sites to
be purchased, leased or otherwise secured for real estate development by any
Affiliate of the Original Stockholder (including, without limitation, Bowen
Development Company ("BDC")) except for the sites identified on the attached
Exhibit A and the Conflicts Committee shall determine whether or not the Company
shall exercise such right;
-4-
<PAGE>
(b) BDC or any other Affiliate of the Original Stockholder may
continue as contractor for the current Company projects in Boise, San Antonio,
Folsom, Roseville and Clovis, provided that the terms of such projects shall be
equal to hard costs, including general conditions (which consist of on-site
costs), plus 5% or less (for overhead and profit) as determined by the Conflicts
Committee;
(c) All of the other projects on which construction shall begin prior
to June 30, 1997, may be awarded to BDC upon BDC providing proof to the
Conflicts Committee that such contract is on terms no less favorable than the
Company would otherwise be able to obtain from a completely independent general
contractor, including a discounted contractors fee for awarding multiple
projects to one contractor, if applicable. In such cases, competitive bidding
shall not be required provided the Conflicts Committee determines that the
Company's construction schedule dictates that the time required to obtain such
bids would unduly delay construction and place the Company behind its current
projected schedule of openings; and
(d) All contracts pursuant to which construction will begin
subsequent to June 30, 1997, or any contract for the construction of a facility
beyond the initial twelve projects as set forth on the attached Exhibit B, shall
require competitive bidding on comparable terms and the approval of the
Conflicts Committee for a contract to be awarded to BDC.
3. Certain Voting Covenants. From and after the Closing (as defined
in the Purchase Agreement), the Original Stockholder and his Permitted
Transferees shall not vote any of his or their Stockholder Shares which are
voting shares and any other voting securities of the Company over which such
holder has voting control, in favor of the Company taking the following actions
unless such Original Stockholder or his Permitted Transferees first obtains the
prior written consent of the holders of at least 66% of the outstanding
Preferred Stock:
(a) merge or consolidate with any Person or permit any Subsidiary to
merge or consolidate with any Person (other than a wholly-owned Subsidiary);
-5-
<PAGE>
(b) liquidate, dissolve or effect a recapitalization or reorganization
in any form of transaction (including, without limitation, any reorganization
into a limited liability company, a partnership or any other non-corporate
entity which is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes);
(c) except as expressly contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, make
any amendment to the Articles of Incorporation, the Articles of Amendment or the
Company's bylaws, or file any resolution of the Board with the Oregon Secretary
of State containing any provisions, which would increase the number of
authorized shares of the Preferred Stock or adversely affect or otherwise impair
the rights or the relative preferences and priorities of the holders of the
Preferred Stock or the Underlying Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement, the
Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, the Company's bylaws or the
Registration Agreement;
(d) amend or modify any stock option plan or employee stock ownership
plan as in existence as of the Closing, other than to increase to 600,000 the
number of options for shares of the Company's common stock that may be issued
under the Company's 1995 Stock Incentive Plan, adopt any new stock option plan
or employee stock ownership plan or issue any shares of Common Stock to its or
its Subsidiaries' employees other than pursuant to the Company's existing stock
option and employee stock ownership plans; or
(e) any other corporate action of the type described in Section 3D of
the Purchase Agreement which requires the approval of the stockholders of the
Company under the laws of the State of Oregon (including, without limitation,
any provisions requiring a separate class or series vote), the Restated Articles
of Incorporation, as amended, the Company's bylaws or any other statute, rule or
regulation to which the Company is subject.
4. Representations and Warranties. Each Stockholder represents and
warrants that (i) such Stockholder is the record owner of the number of
Stockholder Shares set forth opposite its name on the Stockholder Schedule
attached hereto, (ii) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by such Stockholder and constitutes the valid and binding obligation
of such Stockholder, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and (iii) such
Stockholder has not granted and is not a party to any
-6-
<PAGE>
proxy, voting trust or other agreement which is inconsistent with, conflicts
with or violates any provision of this Agreement. No holder of Stockholder
Shares shall grant any proxy or become party to any voting trust or other
agreement which is inconsistent with, conflicts with or violates any provision
of this Agreement.
5. Restrictions on Transfer of Stockholder Shares.
(a) Transfer of Stockholder Shares. The Original Stockholder shall not
sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of (whether with or without
consideration and whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law)
any interest in his Stockholder Shares (a "Transfer"), except pursuant to the
provisions of this paragraph 4 or pursuant to a Public Sale and except for
Transfers of up to 1,233,000 of his Stockholder Shares (as appropriately
adjusted for any combination or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, stock
split or other recapitalization) (an "Exempt Sale"). The Original Stockholder
shall not consummate any Transfer (other than a Public Sale or an Exempt Sale)
until 30 days after the later of the delivery to the Company and the Investor of
the Original Stockholder's Sale Notice, unless the parties to the Transfer have
been finally determined pursuant to this paragraph 4 prior to the expiration of
such 30-day period (the "Election Period").
(b) Participation Rights. At least 30 days prior to any Transfer of
Stockholder Shares by the Original Stockholder (other than a Public Sale or an
Exempt Sale), the Original Stockholder shall deliver a written notice (the "Sale
Notice") to the Company and the Investor, specifying in reasonable detail the
identity of the prospective transferee(s), the number of shares to be
transferred and the terms and conditions of the Transfer. The Investor may elect
to participate in the contemplated Transfer at the same price per share (whether
voting or non-voting stock) and on the same terms by delivering written notice
to the Original Stockholder within 30 days after delivery of the Sale Notice. If
the Investor has elected to participate in such Transfer, the Original
Stockholder and the Investor shall be entitled to sell in the contemplated
Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms, a number of Stockholder
Shares equal to the product of (i) the quotient determined by dividing the
percentage of Stockholder Shares owned by such Person by the aggregate
percentage of Stockholder Shares owned by the Original Stockholder and the
-7-
<PAGE>
Investor and (ii) the number of Stockholder Shares to be sold in the
contemplated Transfer.
For example, if the Sale Notice contemplated a sale of 100 Stockholder
Shares by the Original Stockholder, and if the Original Stockholder at such
time owns 30% of all Stockholder Shares and if the Investor elects to
participate and owns 20% of all Stockholder Shares, the Original
Stockholder would be entitled to sell 60 shares (30% / 50% x 100 shares)
and the Investor would be entitled to sell 40 shares (20% / 50% x 100
shares).
The Original Stockholder shall use best efforts to obtain the agreement of the
prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the Investor in any
contemplated Transfer and to the inclusion of the Warrant and the Preferred
Stock in the contemplated Transfer, and the Original Stockholder shall not
transfer any of its Stockholder Shares to any prospective transferee if such
prospective transferee(s) declines to allow the participation of the Investor or
the inclusion of the Warrant and/or the Preferred Stock. If any portion of the
Warrant is included in any Transfer of Stockholder Shares under this
subparagraph 4(b), the purchase price for the Warrant shall be equal to the full
purchase price determined hereunder for the Stockholder Shares covered by the
portion of the Warrant to be transferred.
(c) Permitted Transfers. The restrictions set forth in this paragraph
4 shall not apply with respect to any Transfer of Stockholder Shares by the
Original Stockholder pursuant to (i) the stock option agreements dated as of
September 1, 1995 among the Company, the Original Stockholder and each of
Messrs. Ekberg, Gish, Jacobsen, Parfitt and Roderick as originally executed, or
(ii) applicable laws of descent and distribution or among the Original
Stockholder's Family Group (referred to herein as "Permitted Transferees");
provided that, with respect to a Transfer permitted pursuant to clause (ii), the
restrictions contained in this paragraph 4 shall continue to be applicable to
the Stockholder Shares after any such Transfer and provided further that the
transferees of such Stockholder Shares shall have agreed in writing to be bound
by the provisions of this Agreement affecting the Stockholder Shares so
transferred. For purposes of this Agreement, "Family Group" means the Original
Stockholder's spouse and descendants (whether natural or adopted) and any trust
solely for
-8-
<PAGE>
the benefit of the Original Stockholders and/or the Original Stockholder's
spouse and/or descendants.
(d) Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions set forth in this
paragraph 4 shall continue with respect to the applicable Stockholder Share held
by the Original Stockholder until the date on which such Stockholder Share has
been transferred pursuant to this paragraph 4.
6. Holdback Agreement. The Original Stockholder shall not effect any
public sale or distribution of any Stockholder Shares or of any other capital
stock or equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for such stock or securities, during the seven days
prior to and the 90-day period beginning on the effective date of any
underwritten Demand Registration or any underwritten Piggyback Registration (as
such terms are defined in the Registration Agreement dated as of the date hereof
between the Investor and the Company) unless the underwriters managing the
registration otherwise agree. The restrictions on the transfer of Stockholder
Shares set forth in this paragraph 5 shall continue with respect to each
Stockholder Share until such share is no longer held by the Original Stockholder
or his Permitted Transferees.
7. Legend. Each certificate evidencing Stockholder Shares and each
certificate issued in exchange for or upon the transfer of any Stockholder
Shares (if such shares remain Stockholder Shares after such transfer) shall be
stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following
form:
"The securities represented by this certificate are subject to a
Stockholders Agreement dated as of December 16, 1996, among the issuer
of such securities (the "Company") and certain of the Company's
stockholders, as amended and modified from time to time. A copy of
such Stockholders Agreement shall be furnished without charge by the
Company to the holder hereof upon written request."
The Company shall imprint such legend on certificates evidencing Stockholder
Shares outstanding as of the date hereof. The legend
set forth above shall be removed from the certificates evidencing
-9-
<PAGE>
any shares which cease to be Stockholder Shares in accordance with paragraph 8
hereof.
8. Transfer. Prior to transferring any Stockholder Shares to any
Person other than a Public Sale, the holders of Stockholder Shares shall cause

deliver to the Company and the other holders of Stockholder Shares a counterpart
of this Agreement.
