                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Emeritus Corporation:

         We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Emeritus Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive operations,
shareholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 1998. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.

         We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide reasonable basis for our opinion.

         In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Emeritus
Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

         As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the 
Company changed its method of accounting for start-up costs and organization 
costs.

                    INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON SCHEDULE


The Board of Directors
Emeritus Corporation

Under date of February 26, 1999, except as to Note 20, which is as of March 
29, 1999, we reported on the consolidated balance sheets of Emeritus 
Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the related 
consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive operations, 
shareholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the 
three year period ended December 31, 1998, as contained in the 1998 annual 
report on Form 10-K. In connection with our audits of the aforementioned 
consolidated financial statements, we also audited the related consolidated 
financial statement schedule of valuation and qualifying accounts. This 
consolidated financial statement schedule is the responsibility of the 
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this 
consolidated financial statement schedule based on our audits.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statement schedule, when considered
in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly, in all material respect, the information set forth therein.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Emeritus Assisted Living - Emeritus Corporation ("Emeritus" or the "Company") is
a nationally integrated assisted living organization focused on operating
residential style communities. These communities provide a residential housing
alternative for senior citizens who need help with the activities of daily
living, with an emphasis on assisted living and personal care services. The
Company also provides management services to third-party owners of assisted
living communities.

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its majority-owned subsidiaries. In addition, the accounts of limited liability
companies and partnerships ("LLCs") have been consolidated where the Company
maintains effective control over the LLCs' assets and operations, not
withstanding a lack of technical majority ownership of the LLCs. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

     REVENUE RECOGNITION

Operating revenue consists of resident fee revenue and management services
revenue. Resident units are rented on a month-to-month basis and rent is
recognized in the month the unit is occupied. Service fees paid by residents for
assisted-living and other related services and management fees are recognized in
the period services are rendered. Management services revenue is comprised of
revenue from management contracts and is recognized in the month in which it is
earned in accordance with the terms of the management contract.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

All short-term investments, consisting primarily of commercial paper and
certificates of deposit, with a maturity at date of purchase of three months or
less are considered to be cash equivalents.

     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets as follows: buildings and improvements, 25 to 40 years; furniture,
equipment and vehicles, five to seven years; leasehold improvements, over the
lesser of the estimated useful life or the lease term.

For long-lived assets, including property and equipment, the Company evaluates
the carrying value of the assets by comparing the estimated future cash flows
generated from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition with the
assets' reported net book values. The carrying values of assets are evaluated
for impairment when events or changes in circumstances occur which may indicate
the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.

     INVESTMENTS

Investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at
fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of any related tax effect,
are excluded from results of operations and are reported as a component of other
comprehensive income (loss).

Investments in 20% to 50% owned affiliates are accounted for under the equity
method except where lack of voting power exists. Investments in less than 20%
owned entities are accounted for under the cost method.

                              EMERITUS CORPORATION

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

    INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets, which are comprised of deferred financing costs, (included in
other assets) as well as lease acquisition costs are amortized on the
straight-line method over the term of the related debt or lease agreement.

     INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes are provided based on the estimated future tax effects of
temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing
assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates that are expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to
be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax assets when
it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not be realized.

     DEFERRED RENT

Deferred rent primarily represents lease incentives which are deferred and
amortized using the straight-line method over the lives of the associated
leases.

     DEFERRED GAINS ON SALE OF COMMUNITIES

Deferred gains on sale/leasebacks of communities are deferred and amortized
using the straight-line method over the lives of the associated leases. The
Company has no continuing involvement in communities which it has sold and
leased back outside of operating the communities.

     COMMUNITY OPERATIONS

Community operations represent direct costs incurred to operate the communities
and include costs such as resident activities, marketing, housekeeping, food
service, payroll and benefits, facility maintenance, utilities, taxes and
licenses.

     STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES
and related Interpretations in measuring compensation costs for its stock option
plans. The Company discloses pro forma net income (loss) and net income (loss)
per share as if compensation cost had been determined consistent with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED
COMPENSATION.

     NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed based on weighted average shares
outstanding and excludes any potential dilution. Diluted net income (loss) per
share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares
outstanding plus dilutive potential common shares using the treasury stock
method. The capital structure of the Company includes convertible debentures,
redeemable convertible preferred stock, as well as stock options. The assumed
conversion and exercise of these securities have been excluded from the
calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Foreign currency amounts attributable to foreign operations have been translated
into U.S. dollars using year-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities,
historical rates for equity, and average annual rates for revenues and expenses.
Unrealized gains and losses arising from fluctuations in the year-end exchange
rates are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss).

     RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain reclassifications of the 1996 and 1997 amounts have been made to conform
to the 1998 presentation.

(2) CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

In April 1997, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement of
Position 98-5 (SOP 98-5), REPORTING ON THE COSTS OF START-UP ACTIVITIES. This
statement provides guidance on financial reporting for start-up costs and
organization costs and requires such costs to be expensed as incurred. The
Company elected early adoption of this statement effective January 1, 1998 and
has reported a charge of $1,320,000 for the cumulative effect of this change in
accounting principle. The adoption of SOP 98-5 on January 1, 1998 resulted in
the Company expensing approximately $967,000 of start-up costs incurred in 1998.

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards 130 (SFAS 130), REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME.
This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements.
The purpose of reporting comprehensive income is to report a measure of all
changes in equity of an enterprise that result from recognized transactions and
other economic events of the period other than transactions with owners in their
capacity as owners. The Company adopted SFAS 130 effective January 1, 1998.

(3) RESTRICTED DEPOSITS

Restricted deposits consist of funds required by various Real Estate Investment
Trusts ("REITs") to be placed on deposit until the Company's communities meet
certain debt coverage and/or cash flow coverage ratios, at which time the funds
will be released to the Company. As of December 31, 1997 and 1998, the Company
had $10.8 million and $8.4 million in restricted deposits, respectively.

(4) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consist of the following:

Alert has entered into an exclusive management agreement to manage the Company's
future assisted-living communities in Ontario. Eclipse, through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Eclipse Construction Inc., develops and constructs retirement homes
for Alert on a contract basis. Under the agreement, Eclipse has entered into an
exclusive development agreement with the Company to develop its future
construction projects in Ontario. No communities have been developed under these
agreements as of December 31, 1998.

During 1998, the Company sold its interest in a community located in Texas to a
partnership in which the principal shareholder of the Company is a partner.
Pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement, the Company advanced funds to the
partnership of $1.0 million and $800,000 subject to promissory notes bearing
interest at 9% and payable in 10 years and on demand, respectively. The $1.0
million note contains additional funding provisions whereby the Company funds
20% of the losses generated by the community up to $500,000, of which $350,000
is outstanding at December 31, 1998. The Company at its option can then convert
its $1.5 million investment into a 20% interest in the partnership. In addition,
the Company has advanced the partnership $450,000 under a repair note bearing
interest at 9% and due June 2008. At December 31, 1998, the Partnership's
obligations to the Company total $2.6 million.

In 1998, the Company entered into a $5.0 million credit agreement with Aurora
Bay Investments, L.L.C. ("Aurora Bay"), a limited liability company that
acquires, develops and operates Alzheimer's special care facilities. In
September 1998, the credit agreement was assumed by a related party for $4.2
million which equaled the total advances made under the facility.

 (9)   CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

The Company has $32.0 million of 6.25% convertible subordinated debentures (the
"Debentures") which are due in 2006. The Debentures are convertible into common
stock at the rate of $22 per share, which equates to an aggregate of
approximately 1,454,545 shares of the Company's common stock and bear interest
payable semiannually on January 1 and July 1 of each year. The Debentures are
unsecured and subordinated to all other indebtedness of the Company.

The Debentures are subject to redemption, as a whole or in part, at any time or
from time to time commencing after July 1, 1999 at the Company's option on at
least 30 days' and not more than 60 days' prior notice.

The redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) are as
follows for the 12-month period beginning after July 1 of the following years:

Substantially all long-term debt is secured by the Company's property and
equipment.

During 1998, the Company consolidated approximately $60.3 million of outstanding
debt through a refinancing with a single lender and wrote off $937,000 of
related deferred costs as an extraordinary item.

Certain of the Company's indebtedness includes restrictive provisions related to
cash dividends, investments and borrowings, and require maintenance of specified
operating ratios, levels of working capital and net worth. As of December 31,
1998, the Company was in compliance with such covenants or obtained waivers for
noncompliance.

Principal maturities of long-term debt at December 31, 1998 are as follows:

(12) MARGIN LOAN ON EQUITY SECURITIES

During 1997, the Company opened a margin account to facilitate the acquisition
of marketable securities. This account had a loan balance of $9,165,000 and
$2,324,000 at December 31, 1997 and 1998, respectively, secured by marketable

under broker call (6.125% as of December 31, 1998).

(13) INCOME TAXES

Income taxes reported by the Company differ from the amount computed by applying
the statutory rate primarily due to limitations on utilizing net operating
losses.

significant portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities are comprised of the
following:

</TABLE>



The net increase in the total valuation allowance was $9,380,000 and $11,856,000
for 1997 and 1998, respectively. The increases were primarily due to the
increase in deferred gains on sale/leasebacks and the amount of net operating
loss carryforwards, for which management does not believe that it is more likely
than not that realization is assured.

For federal income tax purposes, the Company has net operating loss
carryforwards at December 31, 1998, available to offset future federal taxable
income, if any, of approximately $57,539,000 expiring beginning in 2011.

(14)  RELATED-PARTY MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS

During 1995, the Company's two most senior executive officers, CEO and now
former President, formed a New York general partnership (the "Partnership") to
facilitate the operation of assisted-living communities in the state of New
York, which generally requires that natural persons be designated as the
licensed operators of assisted-living communities. The Partnership operates ten
leased communities in New York. The Company has agreements with the Partnership
and the partners under which all of the Partnership's profits have been assigned
to the Company and the Company has indemnified the partners against losses. In
February 1999, the President of the Company ceased to be an officer of the
Company and has agreed to transfer his ownership in the Partnership to his
successor at a nominal value. As the Company has unilateral and perpetual
control over the Partnership's assets and operations, the results of operations
of the Partnership are consolidated with those of the Company.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)


A number of limited partnerships which are partly owned indirectly by Mr. Baty,
the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, develop, own and lease
senior housing projects, some of which cater to low income seniors. The Company
has agreements with these partnerships to provide certain administrative
support, due diligence and financial support services with respect to the
acquisition, development and administration of these communities. The agreements
have terms ranging from two to four years, with options to renew, and provide
for management fees ranging from 4% to 7% of gross operating revenues and fixed
administrative fees. Management fee revenue earned under these agreements was
approximately $103,000 and $535,000 in 1997 and 1998, respectively.

In 1998, the Company and XL Management Company L.L.C., ("XL Management"), an
affiliate of Holiday Retirement Corp., an owner and operator of
independent-living communities, entered into four management agreements whereby
XL Management will provide management services relating to four newly developed
assisted-living communities located in Texas. The agreements have initial terms
of two years six months with management fees based on 6% of gross revenues
payable monthly. Total fees in 1998 amounted to $187,000. The Company will pay a
bonus fee per community to XL Management based on occupancy; one year after
managing the communities, if occupancy is between 75% and 89%, XL Management
will receive a bonus fee of $25,000 and if occupancy is 90% or greater the bonus
fee will be $50,000. The Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and
another member of the Company's board of directors are principal shareholders
and officers of Holiday.

In addition to the foregoing, the Company entered into 25 management 
agreements with a related party for properties previously leased and owned 
(note 18).

(15) SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

In December 1997, the Company purchased 25,600 shares of its common stock at an
aggregate cost of $341,000. In January 1998, the Company's board of directors
authorized a stock repurchase program to acquire up to an additional 500,000
shares of the Company's common stock. At December 31, 1998, the Company had
acquired a total of 517,200 shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of
$5.7 million.

     1995 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

The Company has a 1995 stock incentive plan ("1995 Plan") which combines the
features of an incentive and nonqualified stock option plan, stock appreciation
rights and a stock award plan (including restricted stock). The 1995 Plan is a
long-term incentive compensation plan and is designed to provide a competitive
and balanced incentive and reward program for participants.

The Company has authorized 1,600,000 shares of common stock to be reserved for
grants under the 1995 Plan of which 155,384 remained available for future awards
at December 31, 1998. Options generally vest between three-year to five-year
periods, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors, in cumulative increments beginning one year after the date of the
grant and expire not later than ten years from the date of grant. The options
are granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common
stock on the date of the grant.

In November 1998, the Company offered, at the election of individual employees,
a repricing of options granted to date at an exercise price of $9.8125 which was
equal to the fair market value of the stock on the grant date. A total of
1,005,166 shares were forfeited and reissued under the repricing transaction.

Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option plan been determined
pursuant to SFAS 123, the Company's pro forma net loss and pro forma net loss
per share, including the effect of the repricing, would have been as follows:

</TABLE>



The fair value of each option grant has been estimated on the date of grant
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used
for grants in 1996, 1997 and 1998: dividend yield of 0.0% for all periods;
expected volatility of 55% for 1996, 49.1% for 1997 and 48.9% for 1998;
risk-free interest rates of 5.47% to 6.39% for 1996, 5.45% to 5.50% for 1997,
and 4.51% to 4.70% for 1998; and an expected option term of 4.5 years and 5
years for 1996 and 1997, respectively, and for 1998 of 2 to 5 years, giving
effect to the option repricing.

     EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

In July 1998, the Company adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the Plan) to
provide substantially all employees who have completed six months of service an
opportunity to purchase shares of its common stock through payroll deductions,
up to 15% of eligible compensation. A total of 200,000 shares are available for
purchase under the Plan. Monthly, participant account balances are used to
purchase shares of stock on the open market at the lesser of the fair market
value of shares on the first or last day of the participation period. Employees
may not exceed $25,000 in annual purchases. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan
expires in May 2008. At December 31, 1998, 900 shares have been purchased by 
employees under the Plan.

(16)  REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

The Company has authorized 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par
value. Pursuant to such authority, in October 1997, the Company issued and sold
25,000 shares of Series A cumulative convertible, exchangeable, redeemable
preferred stock for $25,000,000. Cumulative dividends of 9% are payable
quarterly. The preferred stock has a mandatory redemption date of October 24,
2004 at a price equal to $1,000 per share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends.
Each share of preferred stock may be converted, at the option of the holder,
into 55 shares of common stock. The preferred stock is also exchangeable in
whole only, at the option of the Company, to 9% subordinated convertible notes
due October 24, 2004. The 9% subordinated notes would contain the same
conversion rights, restrictions and other terms as the preferred stock.

The Company may redeem the preferred stock, in whole or in part, after October
24, 2001 for $1,050 per share plus accrued dividends, provided that the market
price of common stock is at least 130% of the conversion price for the preferred
stock. In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of outstanding
preferred stock shall be entitled to receive a distribution of $1,000 per share
plus accrued dividends.

(17) LEASES

At December 31, 1998, the Company leases office space and 54 assisted-living
communities . The office lease expires in 2006 and contains two five-year
renewal options. The community leases expire from 2004 to 2017 and contain two
to six five-year renewal options.

Rent expense under noncancelable operating leases was approximately $16,114,000,
$34,651,000 and $42,217,000 for 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively. A number of
operating leases provide for additional lease payments, computed as 5% of 
gross community revenues, beginning 24 months after the inception of the 
lease. In 1998, such additional rents were not significant.


(18)  SALES AND ACQUISITIONS

During 1997, the Company completed several acquisitions of assisted-living,
independent-living and skilled nursing communities. These acquisitions have been
accounted for as purchases and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the
acquired communities were recorded at their estimated fair values at the dates
of acquisitions. No goodwill or other identifiable intangibles were recorded
with respect to any of the acquisitions. The results of operations of the
communities acquired have been included in the Company's consolidated financial
statements from the dates of the acquisition. Summary information concerning the
acquisitions is as follows:

The foregoing acquisitions were generally financed through borrowings.

During 1997, the Company completed three acquisitions of communities through
operating lease transactions. The results of operations of the communities have
been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the dates
the leases commenced.

During 1997, the Company entered into sale/leaseback transactions with a REIT,
pursuant to which the REIT acquired one new community developed by the Company
and two existing communities and leased the communities back to the Company. The
Company has no continuing involvement outside of operating the communities.

During 1998, the Company entered into a sale/leaseback transactions with a 
REIT, pursuant to which the REIT acquired a community previously owned by the
Company and leased it back to the Company. The Company has no continuing 
involvement outside of operating the community.

In 1998, the Company acquired two communities which it previously leased from a
REIT for an aggregate purchase price of $13.5 million. These acquisitions were
financed through borrowings.

In 1998 the Company sold interests in three assisted living communities for an
aggregate sales price of $25 million, including the assumption of a $14.8
million mortgage obligation and $1.8 million in notes receivable, to
partnerships in which the Company's principal shareholder is a partner and
realized cumulative gains of $475,000 which are included in other income, net.
The Company retains a management interest in each community through management
contracts and a residual economic interest in two of the communities.

 In December 1998 the Company disposed of its leasehold interest in 22 leased 
communities and three owned communities (the "Emeritrust communities"). The 
Emeritrust communities were sold to an entity in which a principal 
shareholder and a Board member of the Company are investors. Pursuant to the 
transaction, the Company will manage all 25 communities in accordance with a 
three year management contract and will receive management fees of 5% of 
revenues currently payable as well as 2% of revenues which is contingent upon 
the communities achieving positive cash flows. The management agreement 
provides the Company an option to purchase the 22 previously leased 
communities at a formula price and a right of first refusal on the three 
previously owned communities. The management agreement further stipulates a 
cash shortfall funding requirement by the Company to the extent the Emeritrust 
communities generate cash deficiencies in excess of $4.5 million. Previously 
deferred gains and the gain on this transaction collectively totaling 
approximately $13 million have been deferred given the continuing financial 
involvement of the Company stipulated in the management agreement.

(19) CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in
the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of
these matters will not have a material effect on the Company's results of
operations or financial position.

The Company is self insured for certain employee health benefits. The Company's
policy is to accrue amounts equal to the actuarial liabilities which are based
on historical information along with certain assumptions about future events.
Changes in assumptions for such matters as health care costs and actual
experience could cause these estimates to change.

(20) SUBSEQUENT EVENT

In March 1999, the Company completed a disposition of its leasehold interests 
in 19 additional communities, consisting of 14 currently operational 
communities and five development communities (the "Emeritrust II 
communities"). The Emeritrust II communities were sold to an entity in which 
a principal shareholder and a Board member of the Company are investors. 
Pursuant to the transaction, the Company will manage all 19 communities 
in accordance with a three year management contract and will receive 
management fees of 5% of revenues currently payable as well as 2% of revenues 
which is contingent upon the communities achieving positive cash flows. The 
management agreement provides the Company an option to purchase the 19 
previously leased communities at a formula price. The management agreement 
further stipulates a cash shortfall funding requirement by the Company to the 
extent the development communities generate cash deficiencies in excess of 
$2.3 million.
