                              EMERITUS CORPORATION
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim financial information furnished herein, in the opinion of
management, reflects all adjustments which are necessary to state fairly the
consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive 
operations, and cash flows of Emeritus Corporation, (the "Company") as of 
March 31, 1999 and for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999. The 
Company presumes that users of the interim financial information herein have 
read or have access to the Company's 1998 audited consolidated financial 
statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
Results of Operations contained in the 1998 Form 10-K filed March 31, 1999 by 
the Company under the Securities Act of 1934. Accordingly, footnotes and other 
disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures in Form 10-K 
have been omitted. The financial information herein is not necessarily 
representative of a full year's operations.

Property Held For Sale

The Company currently has three communities being held for sale.

Loss Per Share

Loss per common share on a dilutive basis has been calculated without
consideration of 3,918,822 and 4,251,788 common shares at March 31, 1998 and
1999, respectively, related to outstanding options, warrants, convertible
debentures and convertible preferred stock because the inclusion of such common
stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.

Sales of Communities

In March 1999, the Company completed the disposition of its leasehold interests
in 15 communities, consisting of 14 currently operational communities previously
leased by the Company from Meditrust Corporation, a health care REIT, 
("Meditrust") as well as one development community to a related entity. 
Additionally, the Company will dispose of its leasehold interests in four 
development communities (together with the 15 communities above known as the 
"Emeritrust II communities") to the related entity, upon completion of their 
development. The combined purchase price for the Emeritrust II comunities will 
approximate $123 million. As of March 31, 1999,  Emeritus has received net 
proceeds of $3.7 million. The Company will continue to operate the Emeritrust 
II communities pursuant to 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 
communities at a formula price. The management agreement further stipulates a 
cash shortfall funding requirement by the Company to the extent that the five 
development communities generate cash deficiencies in excess of individually 
specified amounts per community, ranging from $400,000 to $500,000. Previously 
deferred gains on this transaction collectively totaling approximately $5.7 
million are still being deferred given the continuing financial involvement of 
the Company stipulated in the management agreement.

                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Company is a nationally integrated senior housing services organization
focused on operating residential-style assisted-living communities. The Company
is one of the largest and most experienced providers of assisted-living
communities in the United States. 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.

To date, the Company's revenues have primarily been derived from rents and
service fees charged to its residents. With the consummation of Emeritrust II
and with the previous repositioning of 25 communities which closed on December 
31, 1998 ("Emeritrust I"), the Company expects to generate approximately $4.3 
million in management fee income during 1999. For the three months ended March 
31, 1998 and 1999, the Company generated total operating revenues of $34.8 
million and $34.2 million, respectively, including $699,000 in management fees 
for the three months ended March 31, 1999. For the three months ended March 
31, 1998 and 1999, the Company incurred losses of $8.4 million and $3.0 
million (excluding a charge related to the cumulative effect of a change in 
accounting principle in 1998), respectively. Loss before cumulative effect of 
change in accounting principle decreased $3.0 million from $6.0 million for 
the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $3.0 million for the three months 
ended March 31, 1999.

During 1998 the Company adopted an operating strategy focused on: 1) increasing
occupancy throughout the Company's portfolio, 2) reducing acquisition and
development activities and 3) repositioning communities operating at a loss.
Occupancy across the Company's total portfolio at March 31, 1999 increased by 
5% to 77% compared to 72% at March 31, 1998. In addition, average first 
quarter occupancy increased by 6% to 77% for 1999 compared to 71% for 1998. 
The Company has significantly reduced its acquisition and development 
activities, only acquiring two communities during 1998 compared to 10 during 
1997. In addition, the Company opened two and four development communities 
during the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Slowing 
its acquisition and development activities has enabled the Company to utilize 
its resources more efficiently and increase its focus on community operations. 
The Company disposed of no communities during the three months ended March 31, 
1998 and disposed of 15 communities during the three months ended March 31, 
1999 in the Emeritrust II transaction. The Company retains a management 
interest in the repositioned facilities through three year management 
contracts.

For 1999, the Company will stay primarily focused on increasing occupancy 
throughout the Company's portfolio, consistent with 1998. In addition, the 
Company will also devote attention to 1) generating alternative sources of 
resident fee revenue and 2) containing operating costs to continue improving 
its margins.

The Company's losses to date result from a number of factors. These factors
include, but are not limited to: the development of 48 and acquisition of 69
assisted living communities since inception that incurred operating losses
during the initial 12 to 24 month rent-up phase; initially lower levels of
occupancy at the Company's communities than originally anticipated; financing
costs arising from sale/leaseback transactions and mortgage financing;
refinancing transactions at proportionately higher levels of debt; and increased
administrative and corporate expenses to facilitate the Company's growth.

(1)   Of these 17 development communities, four are being developed by 
      Emeritus but are expected to be sold upon completion and managed by
      Emeritus pursuant to management contracts with the purchaser, two are
      owned and being developed by Emeritus, three are being developed by
      Emeritus joint ventures with third parties, and the remainder are being
      developed by third parties but will be managed by Emeritus upon
      completion.

(2)   The percentage increase indicates the change from the preceding December 
      31.

As of May 3, 1999, the Company held ownership, leasehold or management interests
in 117 communities (the "Operating Communities") consisting of approximately
10,400 units with the capacity of approximately 12,000 residents, located in 29
states. The Company leases 38 of the Operating Communities, typically from a 
financial institution such as a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT"), owns 15 
communities, manages or provides administrative services for 56 communities 
and has a partnership interest or joint venture in 8 communities. 
Additionally, the Company holds a minority interest of 31.3% in Alert Care, an 
Ontario, Canada-based owner and operator of 21 assisted-living communities 
consisting of approximately 1,200 units with a capacity of approximately 1,300 
residents. Including its interest in Alert Care, the Company holds an interest 
in 138 communities consisting of approximately 11,600 units with a capacity of 
approximately 13,200 residents.

Of the 117 Operating Communities, five newly developed communities were opened
during 1998 and four opened in the first quarter of 1999. As of May 3, 1999, the
Company owned, had a leasehold interest in, management interest in or had
acquired an option to purchase development sites for 17 new assisted-living
communities (the "Development Communities"). Thirteen of these communities are
scheduled to open during 1999 and the remaining are scheduled to begin operating
in 2000.

Assuming completion of the Development Communities scheduled to open in 1999 and
including the minority interest in Alert Care, by the end of 1999, the Company 
will own, lease, have an ownership interest in or manage 151 properties in 29 
states, Canada and Japan, containing an aggregate of approximately 12,900 
units with capacity of approximately 14,500 residents. There can be no 
assurance, however, that the Development Communities will be completed on 
schedule. Construction delays, the effects of government regulation or other 
factors beyond the Company's control could delay the opening of these 
communities.

The Company is exploring international development and acquisition possibilities
in Canada and Japan. The Company's investment in Alert Care in Ontario, Canada
represents a significant initial investment in the assisted-living industry in
Canada. The Company has also entered into a joint venture with Sayno Electric
Company, Ltd. of Osaka, Japan to provide assisted-living services in Japan. The
Company's first assisted-living community in Japan is under construction and is
anticipated to open by the end of 1999. The community will be among the first
assisted living communities in Japan to offer private apartments on a
month-to-month rental.

Three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to three months ended March 31, 1998

Revenues: Total operating revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1999
decreased 1.8% or $623,000 from the comparable period in 1998. The change in
revenue is a result of the repositioning of 28 communities subsequent to the
first quarter of 1998 from leased/owned communities to managed. The repositioned
communities generated $6.2 million in revenue during the first quarter 1998.
This decrease in revenue is offset by: 1) generally increasing levels of
occupancy throughout the Company's portfolio, including a 17% increase in 
average occupancy in the Company's owned/leased portfolio to 86% in the first 
quarter of 1999 compared to 69% for the first quarter of 1998; and 2) the 
increase in management fee revenue of $630,000 during the first quarter of 
1999 compared to the first quarter of 1998 as the Company retains a management 
interest in the repositioned communities.

Community Operations: Community operating expenses for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 decreased 15.8% or $4.1 million from the comparable period in
1998 to $21.7 million. The overall decrease in community operating expenses is 
a result of the community repositionings that occurred subsequent to the first
quarter of 1998. These repositioned communities had incurred $6.6 million of
community operating expenses during the first quarter of 1998. The decrease is 
offset by: 1) increased variable costs resulting from the significant 
occupancy gains; and 2) increased sales and marketing costs. Community 
operating margins (community revenues less community operating expenses) have 
increased to 35.3% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to 26.0% 
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 due to the repositioning of lower 
margin communities to managed communities and to the effect of cost control 
measures.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

General and Administrative: As a percentage of total operating revenues general
and administrative (G&A) expenses increased to 10.3% for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 as compared to the 9.2% recorded in the quarter ended March 31,
1998. The increase in G&A costs as percentage of revenue is due, in part, to 
the shift from community revenue to management fees in the repositioning of 
the Emeritrust I communities. Overall, G&A costs increased approximately 
$310,000 primarily due to greater personnel costs to support the increasing 
number of communities.

Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 were $1.5 million, or 4.3% of total operating
revenues, compared to $1.6 million, or 4.5% of total operating revenues for the
comparable period in 1998. The decrease is principally the result of
repositioning six owned communities to managed communities.

Rent: Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was $7.6 million,
representing a decrease of $2.7 million, or 26.4% from the comparable period in
1998. The decrease is primarily attributable to the repositioning of 22 leased
communities to managed communities on December 31, 1998, accounting for $2.6 
million in rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The Company 
leased an average of 52 communities for the three months ended March 31, 1999, 
compared to an average of 78 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. Rent 
as a percentage of revenue was 29.6% and 22.2% for the three months ended 
March 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

Interest Expense, Net: Interest expense, net for the three months ended March
31, 1999 increased $447,000 from the comparable period in 1998. This increase is
primarily related to the increase of average quarterly total debt from $157.4 
million at March 31, 1998 to $164.1 million at March 31, 1999. In addition, 
the amount of interest cost capitalized as part of the Company's development 
activities declined in 1999 from 1998 levels.

Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle: During the three month
period ended March 31, 1998, the Company incurred a cumulative effect of a
change in accounting principle of $1.3 million relating to the early adoption of
SOP 98-5, which requires that costs of start-up activities and organization
costs be expensed as incurred. No such charge was incurred for the three months
ended March 31, 1999.

Same Community Comparison

The Company operated 54 of its communities, excluding the Emeritrust I and 
Emeritrust II communities, ("Same Community") during both three months periods 
ended March 31, 1998 and 1999. The following table sets forth a comparison of 
Same Community results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 
and 1999.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

The Same Communities represented $25.5 million or 75% of the Company's total
revenue for the first quarter of 1999. Same Community revenues increased by $3.0
million or 13% for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 from the comparable period
in 1998. The increase in revenue is attributable to increased occupancy and
monthly rate increases due to an expanded range of services offered at the
communities. During the quarter ended March 31, 1999, average occupancy
increased by 8% to 87% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1998 average 
occupancy of 79%. In addition, Same Community average revenue per unit 
increased from $2,071 per month for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 to $2,140 
per month for the quarter ended March 31, 1999. During the three months ended 
March 31, 1999, the Company recorded net income of $591,000 compared to net 
loss of $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the three months ended March 31, 1999, net cash used in operating activities
was $6.0 million compared to $8.7 million for the comparable period in the prior
year. The primary component of this operating use of cash was the net loss of
$3.5 million and $10.3 million recorded in the three months ended March 31, 1999
and 1998, respectively.

Net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $1.6 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999, stemming primarily from proceeds from Emeritrust II
of $3.7 million. This inflow of cash was offset in part by acquisitions of 
property and equipment of $972,000 as well as an excess of $600,000 of 
construction expenditures on leased communities over construction advances for 
the same three month period. Net cash provided by investing activities for the 
three months ended March 31, 1998 was $3.4 million, primarily from the sale of 
investment securities offset by an investment in an affiliate.

For the three months ended March 31, 1999, net cash used in financing activities
was $1.0 million primarily the result of debt repayment. For the three months
ended March 31, 1998, net cash used in financing activities was $1.8 million,
primarily the result of the refinancing of existing assisted-living communities
and the repurchase the Company's common stock.

The Company has been, and expects to continue to be, dependent on third-party
financing for its cash needs in connection with operating losses as well as with
its acquisition and development of communities. There can be no assurance that
financing for these requirements will be available to the Company on acceptable
terms. Moreover, to the extent the Company acquires communities that do not
generate positive cash flow, the Company may have to seek additional capital or
borrowings for working capital and liquidity purposes.

Impact of Inflation

To date, inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company. Inflation
could, however, affect the Company's future revenues and operating income due to
the Company's dependence on its senior resident population, most of whom rely on
relatively fixed incomes to pay for the Company's services. The monthly charges
for the resident's unit and assisted living services are influenced by the
location of the community and local competition. The Company's ability to
increase revenues in proportion to increased operating expenses may be limited.
The Company typically does not rely to a significant extent on governmental
reimbursement programs. In pricing its services, the Company attempts to
anticipate inflation levels, but there can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to respond to inflationary pressures in the future.

Impact of Year 2000

General

The Company has developed a plan (the "Plan") to modify its information
technology to address "Year 2000" problems. The concerns surrounding the Year
2000 are the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather
than four to define the applicable year. Programs that employ time-sensitive
software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year
2000. This could cause system errors or failures.

<PAGE>

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

Plan

The Plan is comprised of three components including assessment of: a) the IT
infrastructure (hardware and systems software other than application software);
b) application software; and c) third party suppliers/vendors. The Company
commenced work on the Plan in the fourth quarter of 1998 by taking inventory of
Year 2000 problems in the areas of IT infrastructure as well as application
software. In addition, the Company has determined the priority of the items
based on their materiality to the Company's operations. No material items have
been noted to date. The Company intends to contact its third party 
suppliers/vendors during the second quarter of 1999 to determine the status of 
their Year 2000 compliance. For each component, the Company will address Year 
2000 problems in six phases: 1) taking inventory of Year 2000 problems; 2) 
assigning priorities to identified items; 3) assessing materiality of items to 
the Company's operations; 4) replacing/repairing material non-compliant items; 
5) testing material items; and 6) designing and implementing business 
continuation plans. Material items are those believed by the Company to have a 
risk that may affect revenue or may cause a discontinuation of operations. The 
Company estimates a completion date of June 30, 1999.

Costs

The project is not expected to be material to the Company's operations or
financial position. The total cost is not expected to exceed $50,000 of which
approximately $10,000 have been incurred to date.

Risks

The failure to correct a material Year 2000 problem could result in an
interruption in, or a failure of, normal business activities or operations. Such
failures could materially affect the Company's results of operations, liquidity,
and financial condition. The Company is unable to determine at this time whether
the consequences of Year 2000 failures will have a material impact on its
results of operations, liquidity or financial condition due, in part, to
uncertainty regarding compliance by third parties. The Plan is expected to
significantly reduce the Company's level of uncertainty regarding the Year 2000
problem, however, particularly compliance and readiness of its third-party
suppliers/vendors. The Company believes that, with the completion of the Plan as
scheduled, the possibility of significant interruptions of normal operations
will be reduced and, therefore, a contingency plan has not been deemed necessary
to date.

Forward-Looking Statements

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995: A number of the matters and subject areas discussed in this report that
are not historical or current facts deal with potential future circumstances,
operations, and prospects. The discussion of such matters and subject areas is
qualified by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding future
expectations generally, and also may materially differ from the Company's actual
future experience involving any one or more of such matters and subject areas
relating to demand, pricing, competition, construction, licensing, permitting,
construction delays on new developments contractual and licensure, and other
delays on the disposition of assisted living communities in the Company's
portfolio, and the ability of the Company to continue managing its costs while
maintaining high occupancy rates and market rate assisted living charges in its
assisted living communities. The Company has attempted to identify, in context,
certain of the factors that they currently believe may cause actual future
experience and results to differ from the Company's current expectations
regarding the relevant matter or subject area. These and other risks and
uncertainties are detailed in the Company's reports filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, including the Company's Annual Reports on Form 10-K and
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company's earnings are affected by changes in interest rates as a result of
its short- and long-term borrowings. The Company manages this risk by obtaining
fixed rate borrowings when possible. At March 31, 1999, the Company's variable
rate borrowings totaled $97.3 million. If market interest rates average 2% more
in 1999 than they did in 1998, the Company's interest expense would increase and
income before taxes would decrease by $1.9 million. These amounts are determined
by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on the Company's
outstanding variable rate borrowings as of March 31, 1999 and does not consider
changes in the actual level of borrowings which may occur subsequent to March
31, 1999. This analysis also does not consider the effects of the reduced level
of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment nor does it
consider likely actions that management could take with respect to the Company's
financial structure to mitigate the exposure to such a change.


                                       11
<PAGE>

The Company is exposed to equity price risk on its short-term investments. 
These investments are generally in companies in the healthcare sector. The 
Company typically does not attempt to reduce or eliminate its market exposure 
on these securities. The decrease in the fair value of the Company's 
short-term available-for-sale securities compared to the December 31, 1998 
value reflects the decrease in the dollar value of the Company's securities, 
the majority of which represents unrealized market depreciation.

MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
WITH OPTION TO PURCHASE
(AL II - 14 Operating Facilities)

This Management Agreement with Option to Purchase (the "Agreement") is entered
into as of March ____, 1999, by and among Emeritus Management LLC, a Washington
limited liability company, Emeritus Management I LP, a Washington limited
partnership, Emeritus Properties I, Inc., a Washington corporation, ESC I, L.P.,
a Washington limited partnership, and ESC G.P. I, Inc., a Washington corporation
(collectively "Managers" and each a "Manager"), Emeritus Corporation, a
Washington Corporation ("Emeritus"), and AL Investors II LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company ("AL Investors II") for itself and as sole managing member on
behalf of each of the Facility Entities as set forth in Exhibit A (collectively
"Facility Entities" and each a "Facility Entity"). (AL Investors II and the
respective Facility Entity which owns a Facility are sometimes collectively
referred to herein as "Owner" or with respect to all Facilities "Owners").
Owners desire to engage Managers to manage the Facilities as defined in Exhibit
A upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. All capitalized terms not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in Exhibit A.

1. BACKGROUND AND GENERAL TERMS

1.1 Purchase Agreements. AL Investors II has entered into (a) a Purchase and
Sale Agreement dated of even date herewith with Meditrust Company LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company ("Meditrust"), relating to the purchase of
the Facilities (the "Purchase Agreement"), and (b) a Supplemental Purchase
Agreement In Connection With Purchase Of Facilities with Emeritus, Emeritus
Properties I, Inc., ESC G.P. I, Inc., and ESC I, L.P. (the "Supplemental
Agreement") relating to certain additional terms and conditions in connection
with purchase of the Facilities (the Purchase Agreement and the Supplemental
Agreement, collectively the "Purchase Agreements"). Closing under the Purchase
Agreements will occur simultaneously and the resulting pool of fourteen (14)
Facilities will each be owned by the respective Facility Entity and managed by
the Managers pursuant to this Agreement.

1.2 Master Agreement. Under the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Emeritus
Management LLC will manage all of the Facilities other than those located in
Texas which will be managed by Emeritus Management I LP. Pursuant to Section
3.6, Emeritus Properties I, Inc., an Affiliate of Emeritus, will be co-manager
of all Facilities except Elmbrook Estates and Park Club of Brandon, subject to
the provisions of Section 3.6. ESC I, L.P., an Affiliate of Emeritus, will be
co-manager of the Facility entitled Elmbrook Estates and ESC G.P. I, Inc. will
be


                                      -1-
<PAGE>

co-manager of the Facility entitled Park Club of Brandon. It is intended that
the terms of this Agreement shall apply to each of the Facilities as if this
Agreement were a direct agreement between each Facility Entity and the
respective Manager (and, if applicable, co-Manager) but the operational results
upon which the Management Fee (Base Management Fee and Accrued Management Fee)
and Operating Deficit and Operating Profit are determined, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, shall be based on the combined results of all the
Facilities and not separately for each Facility. A default or Event of Default
under this Agreement with respect to any Facility shall be a default or Event of
Default as to all Facilities.

1.3 Qualifications. Owners desire to engage the Managers to manage, on behalf of
the Owners and subject to their overall supervision and control, each respective
Facility and Managers represent to AL Investors II and the Facility Entities
that they are experienced and duly qualified under all applicable Legal
Requirements to manage assisted living facilities. By entering into this
Agreement, Owners do not delegate or intend to delegate to Managers any powers,
duties, or responsibilities which Facility Entities are prohibited by Legal
Requirements from delegating. Owners also retain such other management authority
as shall not have been expressly delegated to the Managers pursuant to this
Agreement.

1.4 Emeritus Guaranty. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement,
Emeritus is entering into a Guaranty of Management Agreement ("Emeritus
Guaranty") in favor of the Facility Entities and Owners guaranteeing the
Managers' obligations under this Agreement.

1.5 Consideration. In consideration of Owners' consummating the Purchase
Agreements and the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto agree to enter into and perform their respective obligations
under this Agreement.

2. TERM

2.1 The Term. The term ("Initial Term") of this Agreement shall commence on the
date hereof ("Commencement Date") and shall expire at midnight on December 31,
2001 (the "Termination Date"). If the Closing under the Purchase Agreements does
not occur for any reason, this Agreement shall terminate and no party hereto
shall have any liability or obligation under this Agreement. The Initial Term
and Extension Term are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "Term".


                                      -2-
<PAGE>

2.2 Extension Term. If Emeritus fails to exercise or is not entitled to exercise
the Purchase Option as provided for in Section 13, Owners may extend this
Agreement for a period of up to twelve (12) months beyond the Termination Date
as to any or all Facilities as determined by Owner in its sole discretion
("Extension Term") by giving notice of such election (which shall include
designation of the Facilities and the applicable Extension Term) to Managers at
least ninety (90) days prior to the Termination Date. In such event, the
provisions of Section 13 of this Agreement shall not be applicable during any
Extension Term.

3. GRANT OF AUTHORITY AND OBLIGATIONS OF MANAGERS

3.1 Grant to Managers. Owners hereby grant to Managers the right to supervise
and direct the management and operation of the Facilities subject to the terms
of this Agreement and the overall supervision and control of Owners. Managers
accept such grant and agree that they will supervise and direct the management
and operation of the Facilities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
and the general supervision of Owner. Managers, subject to the terms of this
Agreement, shall have the general authority and responsibility to (i) determine
operating policy and standards of operation, maintenance, and resident care for
the Facilities except where Legal Requirements require an Owner to do so in
which event Manager and such Owner shall consult with each other to allow Owner
to determine policy and standards, (ii) supervise and direct all phases of
advertising and marketing for the Facilities, (iii) carry out all phases of the
Annual Plans and (iv) perform such other acts and things as shall be necessary
to operate the Facilities in an efficient manner which is consistent with
customary and commercially reasonable practice in the industry for comparable
facilities. Managers acknowledge the trust and confidence placed in them
pursuant to this Agreement and at all times agree to act in the best interest of
Owners in managing and operating the Facilities.

3.2 Annual Plans

3.2.1 Preparation and Approval. Not later than December 1 prior to the
commencement of each Operating Year, other than the initial Operating Year, the
Managers shall submit to Owners a draft of an annual budget and forecast for the
operation of each Facility and all Facilities in the aggregate for the
forthcoming Operating Year containing projections of Total Revenues and budgets
of Operating Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses, Capital Improvements, and
Operating Deficit or Operating Profit (the "Annual Plan"). Such budget and
forecasts shall be in reasonable detail and in such form as reasonably required
by Owners. The Annual Plan shall include the assumptions upon which the
forecasts and budgets were prepared, and shall include a proposed annual
marketing plan and proposed resident care and services plan and such other
information as may be reasonable and


                                      -3-
<PAGE>

appropriate to fully advise Owners of all material facts and assumptions
relevant to an evaluation of the Annual Plan for each Facility. Managers shall
review the Annual Plan with Owners, and subject to Owners' approval of each
Annual Plan (which Owners shall endeavor to give by December 31), Manager shall
implement and operate the Facilities in accordance with such approved Annual
Plan for the successive Operating Year. When the Annual Plan is approved by
Owners, the respective Manager is authorized to incur and pay for the Operating
Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses and Capital Improvements set forth in the
Annual Plan and implement the provisions of the Annual Plan. The Annual Plan
shall be updated as of June 1 of each Operating Year if requested by Owner. The
draft Annual Plan for the first Operating Year shall be provided to Owners on or
before April 30, 1999 and such draft Annual Plan shall be approved or
disapproved in accordance with this Section 3.2.1. and Section 3.2.2.

3.2.2 Disapproval of Plan. If an Owner declines to approve a specific item or
items of an Annual Plan for a Facility or the Facilities, the Manager shall make
appropriate revisions to the Annual Plan and resubmit the Annual Plan to the
Owner for approval. Until an Annual Plan is approved for each Operating Year,
the item or items in question will be replaced by an amount equal to such budget
item for the Operating Year prior thereto, except for Fixed Operating Expenses
over which Manager has no control and except for Capital Improvements as to
which the item or items will be replaced with $250 per Operating Year per unit
for each Facility.

3.2.3 Compliance with Annual Plan. Managers agree to use best efforts to operate
the Facilities as provided in the Annual Plan for that Facility. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Managers shall not expend more than the aggregate budget category
for each of Operating Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses and Capital
Improvements with respect to each Facility or exceed any line item in Operating
Expenses or Capital Improvements for a Facility by more than ten percent (10%)
without an Owner's prior approval. In the event actual Total Revenues shall be
less than projected Total Revenues as set forth in the Annual Plan, Managers
shall use all reasonable efforts to effect a proportionate reduction in variable
Operating Expenses.

3.2.4 Group Services. Managers and their Affiliates will furnish to the
Facilities the benefits of any "Group Services" which Managers and their
Affiliates may have in effect from time to time, which phrase shall mean goods
and services provided jointly to other assisted living facilities owned or
managed by Emeritus or its Affiliates on a group or joined basis to realize
maximum economy. Group Services may include (a) bulk purchases of supplies and
services, (b) centralized purchasing service, and (c) centralized marketing
services. Each Owner shall have the option of whether and to the extent each
respective Facility shall participate in


                                      -4-
<PAGE>

Group Services; provided that if Owner determines that a Facility shall not
participate in Group Services, then to the extent such goods and services are
reasonably required for the operation of such Facility, Manager shall arrange
for an alternative provider of such goods and services on the most favorable
terms then practicable. The costs of all Group Services shall be allocated among
the Facilities and other assisted living facilities on an equitable basis in
proportion to the benefits rendered to each and the costs of any Group Services
provided to the Facilities shall be included in the Annual Plan if the
Facilities participate in Group Services.

3.3 Personnel.

3.3.1 General. Consistent with the Annual Plan for each Facility, the respective
Manager shall hire, discharge, promote and supervise the executive staff of the
Facilities and will supervise through such executive staff the hiring,
discharging, promotion and work of all other operating and service employees of
the Facility. All members of the staff of a Facility shall be reasonably
qualified for their positions, and the Compensation payable to such persons
shall be comparable to the compensation paid to the staff of other comparable
assisted living facilities in the general area, taking into account the location
and size and targeted residents of each Facility. Manager shall have in its
employ at all times at each Facility a sufficient number of capable employees to
enable it to properly, adequately, safely and efficiently manage, operate,
maintain and account for the Facilities. Manager shall fully comply with all
applicable Legal Requirements with respect to such employees. Manager represents
that it is and will continue to be an equal opportunity employer and must
advertise as such and Manager shall not engage in any form of discrimination
from the employment or hiring as independent contractors of any personnel,
including, without limitation, discrimination as to race, color, creed,
religion, age, gender, marital status, sexual preference, national origin or
disability.

3.3.2 Managers as Employer. All executive staff members and other employees at
the Facilities shall be direct employees of the Managers or their Affiliates and
not of Owners, and all Compensation of such employees shall be paid by the
Managers as part of Operating Expenses as approved in the Annual Plan. Without
limiting the foregoing, Managers shall, for purposes of such employment
relationship, be acting as an independent contractor and not as an agent of
Owners. Owners shall not have any liability or responsibility for the work place
conditions or employees at any Facility. Managers shall ensure that all
employees required to be licensed under any Legal Requirements shall be so
licensed.

3.3.3 Labor Relations. The Managers will not become involved in any negotiations
with any labor unions or enter into any collective bargaining agreement


                                      -5-
<PAGE>

or labor contract resulting therefrom without the prior approval of the Owner of
any affected Facility.

3.4 Additional Responsibilities of Managers. Manager shall, as agent for the
respective Facility Entity, perform the following services, or cause the same to
be performed, for each Facility:

      (a) Enter into Residency Agreements in the general form approved by Owner
for each Facility and perform the services required thereunder and use diligent
efforts to enforce the provisions thereof.

      (b) In accordance with the applicable Annual Plan, enter into such
Ordinary Contracts for goods and services or furnishing of utilities,
maintenance and repair as shall be reasonably necessary for the proper operation
and maintenance of each Facility. Major Contracts, unless set forth in the
Annual Plan, shall require the prior approval of Owner.

      (c) In accordance with the applicable Annual Plan, enter into such
Ordinary Leases as shall be necessary or convenient for the operation of a
Facility. Major Leases, unless set forth in the applicable Annual Plan, shall
require the prior approval of Owner.

      (d) In accordance with the applicable Annual Plan, make all repairs and
improvements (including Capital Improvements) to the Facility as shall be
reasonably necessary for good order, condition and repair.

      (e) In accordance with the applicable Annual Plan, purchase such Operating
Equipment and Operating Supplies as shall be reasonably necessary for the proper
operation of a Facility.

      (f) Maintain in the name of the applicable Facility Entity all Permits
required in connection with the operation and management of the Facility. In
connection with all Permits, each Facility Entity agrees to execute and deliver
any and all applications and other documents as shall be reasonably required and
to otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Manager in applying for, obtaining
and maintaining such Permits. Provided, however, it shall be the sole
responsibility of Managers to cause each Facility and Facility Entity to obtain
and maintain all required Permits and to operate the Facility in compliance with
such Permits.

      (g) Cause to be done all such acts and things in and about a Facility as
shall be necessary to comply with all Insurance and Legal Requirements. Without
limiting the foregoing, Manager shall, consistent with the applicable Annual
Plan, provide adequate security in and about the Facility.


                                      -6-
<PAGE>

      (h) Cause each Facility to comply with all applicable covenants and
provisions of any Mortgage to the extent such covenants and provisions relate to
the operation, management, compliance with Legal Requirements, and condition of
the Facilities, provided that Owners shall have delivered to Manager true and
correct copies of any Mortgage then in effect. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, (A) Managers acknowledge that they have been provided with a
copy of and have approved the terms and conditions of (i) the Initial Senior
Loan and (ii) the Initial Junior Loan and (B) Managers agree to cause the
Facilities at all times to be in compliance with the provisions of Sections 4.6,
4.7, 4.10, 4.11, 4.17, 4.18, 4.20 and Section 6 of the Loan Agreement entered
into in connection with the Initial Senior Loan. Managers also agree to cause
the Facilities to be in compliance at all times with the provisions of the
Initial Junior Loan relating to the operation, management, compliance with Legal
Requirements and condition of the Facilities. Owners shall promptly forward to
Managers any notices of default or noncompliance with respect to the foregoing
which they may receive under the Initial Senior Loan, Initial Junior Loan or any
successor Mortgage.

      (i) Cause each Facility and its operations to comply with the requirements
of all Contracts, including but not limited to Residency Agreements, Third Party
Payors and Third Party Payor Programs, and all Leases.

      (j) Retain legal counsel for a Facility selected by an Owner which will
represent the Owner, Manager and the Facility on all legal questions as
reasonably necessary relating to Legal Requirements, and will institute any and
all legal actions or proceedings as shall be reasonably necessary to collect
charges or other income for the Facility, prepare or review Contracts, or to
resolve claims (except those arising under this Agreement); provided, however,
that without the prior approval of Owner, Manager shall not institute any
proceedings involving claims in excess of $5,000 or to terminate any Major
Contract or Major Lease.

      (k) With respect to refurbishment or renovation of any Facility or other
Capital Improvements approved by Owner, Managers shall negotiate contracts for
the construction or acquisition of such Capital Improvements, secure all
necessary Permits, and supervise the design, acquisition, and construction to
assure that such Capital Improvements are completed in a good and workmanlike
manner free of any Liens and in accordance with the budget approved by Owners.

      (l) Promptly notify Owners of any default by Emeritus or its Affiliates
under the warranties, representations, covenants and indemnities in the Purchase
Agreements and promptly cure any such default at its sole cost and expense (and
not as an Operating Expense).


                                      -7-
<PAGE>

      (m) Cause Emeritus to comply with all reporting, net worth, and liquidity
requirements of the Initial Senior Loan and the Initial Junior Loan applicable
to Emeritus.

      (n) Cause to be done all such acts and things to maintain the Facility in
good condition for the Primary Intended Use.

      (o) Maintain and repair in good condition all buses or vans used in
connection with the operation of the Facilities, title to which shall remain in
Managers or their Affiliates.

      (p) Prepare and, consistent with the applicable Annual Plan, implement a
life safety plan for the Facility complying with all Legal Requirements to be
used in the event of fire or other casualty at the Facility.

3.5 Unauthorized Acts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Managers
shall have no authority to:

3.5.1 No Borrowing. Borrow on behalf of or loan any funds of a Facility Entity;

3.5.2 No Liens or Transfer. Create or permit any Lien on all or any portion of a
Facility (except for a Mortgage) or sell, convey or otherwise transfer all or
any portion of a Facility without Owner's approval which may be withheld in its
sole discretion except for replacement of Furnishings and Equipment and
Operating Equipment in the ordinary course of business.

3.5.3 No Change of Use. Do or permit any act or omission which would impair the
use of any Facility for the Primary Intended Use;

3.5.4 No Violation. Do or permit any act or omission which would violate Legal
Requirements or the terms of any Permit with respect to any Facility or which
would cause any such Permit to lapse or expire;

3.5.5 Violation of Agreement. Do or permit any act or omission or incur any
liability which exceeds Manager's authority under this Agreement;

3.6 Licensing. If all Permits required by Governmental Authorities have not been
duly and validly transferred or reissued in accordance with all Legal
Requirements in the name of the applicable Facility Entity at closing under the
Purchase Agreements, then Managers at their sole cost and expense shall cause
all such Permits to be transferred or reissued in accordance with all Legal
Requirements in the name of the applicable Facility Entity within ninety (90)
days


                                      -8-
<PAGE>

after the date of this Agreement. Until such time, ESC I, L.P., ESC G.P. I, Inc.
and Emeritus Properties I, Inc., as holders of the Permits, shall act as
co-managers hereunder in order to ensure that each Facility has the benefit of
such Permits as they may hold until transfer or reissuance of the Permits. At
such time, ESC I, L.P., ESC G.P. I, Inc. and Emeritus Properties I, Inc. shall
cease to be Managers hereunder.

a Facility provides evidence of general liability insurance including coverages
with amounts not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and workers' compensation
insurance in the amount required by law, and which liability insurance shall
cover the applicable Owner and Mortgagee as an additional insured.

5.1.2 Insurance Company Requirements. All such insurance required by this
Agreement shall be issued and underwritten by insurance companies licensed to do
insurance business by, and in good standing under the laws of, the state in
which each Facility is located and which companies have and maintain a rating of
A:X or better by A.M. Best Co. or such higher rating as may be required by any
Mortgagee.

5.1.3 Policy Requirements. Every policy of insurance from time to time required
under this Agreement (other than worker's compensation) shall name


                                      -11-
<PAGE>

the respective Facility Entity and Owners as owner or loss payee and additional
named insured as appropriate with respect to liability insurance. Each such
policy, where applicable or appropriate, shall:

      (a) include mortgagee, loss payable and additional named insured
endorsements reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee;

      (b) provide that the coverages may not be cancelled, reduced or otherwise
modified except upon not less than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to
Owner and to any Mortgagee;

      (c) be primary and noncontributing with respect to any other insurance
carried by Owners and Managers, not be invalidated by any negligent act or
omission of Owner or Manager or any foreclosure proceeding relating to a
Facility and otherwise be in such form as shall be acceptable to Owners.

5.1.4 Notices, Certificates and Polices. Manager shall promptly provide to Owner
copies of any and all notices (including notice of non-renewal), claims and
demands which Manager receives from insurers with respect to a Facility. At
least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of any insurance policy required
hereunder, Manager shall deliver to Owner certificates and evidence of insurance
relating to all renewals and replacements thereof, together with evidence,
satisfactory to Owner, of payment of the premiums thereon. Manager shall deliver
to Owner original counterparts or copies certified by the insurance company to
be true and complete copies, of all insurance policies required hereunder not
later than ten (10) days after receipt thereof by Manager.

5.1.5 Right to Place Insurance. If Manager shall fail to obtain any insurance
policy required hereunder or shall fail to deliver the certificate and evidence
of insurance relating to any such policy to Owner, or if any insurance policy
required hereunder (or any part thereof) shall expire or be cancelled or become
void or voidable by reason of any breach of any condition thereof, or if Owner
reasonably determines that such insurance coverage is unsatisfactory by reason
of the failure or impairment of the capital of any insurance company which wrote
any such policy, upon demand by Owner, Manager shall promptly but in any event
in not more than ten (10) days thereafter obtain new or additional insurance
coverage on the Facility, as provided herein. In the event Manager fails to
perform its obligations under this Section, Owner may obtain such insurance and
pay the premium or premiums therefor and be reimbursed therefor as an Operating
Expense, plus, at Manager's sole expense interest from the date advanced at the
Overdue Rate.


                                      -12-
<PAGE>

5.1.6 Payment of Proceeds. All insurance policies required hereunder (except for
general public liability, professional liability and workers' compensation and
employers liability insurance) shall provide that in the event of loss, injury
or damage, subject to the rights of any Mortgagee, all proceeds shall be paid
solely to Owner. Only Owner is authorized to adjust and compromise any such loss
and to collect and receive such proceeds unless Owners authorize Manager in
writing to act as Owners' authorized agent.

5.1.7 Blanket Policies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, Managers' obligations to secure and maintain the insurance provided for
herein may be brought within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or
policies of insurance carried and maintained by Managers and its Affiliates;
provided, however, that any such blanket policy shall include an agreed amount
endorsement with respect to each Facility and such other provisions so that the
coverage afforded to Owner shall not be reduced or diminished or otherwise be
different from that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other
requirements of this Agreement by reason of the use of such blanket policy of
insurance.

5.2 Waiver of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
neither Managers nor Owners shall assert against the other, and do hereby waive
with respect to each other, any claims for any losses, damages, liability or
expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred or sustained by either of them on
account of injury to persons or damage to property arising out of the ownership,
operation and maintenance of the Facilities to the extent that the same are
covered by the insurance carried under this Section 5. Each party shall notify
their respective insurance carriers of such mutual waivers and shall cause their
respective insurance companies to waive in writing, by endorsement or otherwise,
subrogation against the other on account thereof and to acknowledge that such
waivers do not cause any invalidation of coverage provided by such insurance
companies.

6. INDEMNITY

6.1 Indemnification by Manager. Except with respect to the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the respective Owner or any of the other Indemnified
Parties, as to which no indemnity is provided, each Manager and Emeritus,
jointly and severally, hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless with
counsel reasonably acceptable to Owner, the respective Owner and each of the
other Indemnified Parties from and against all damages, losses, liabilities,
obligations, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and other expenses of litigation)
suffered by, or claimed or asserted against, the respective Owner or any of the
other


                                      -13-
<PAGE>

Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly, by any Person based on, arising out
of or resulting from (a) the management of the Facility or any business
conducted therein; (b) any act, fault, omission to act or misconduct by (i) any
Manager, (ii) any Affiliate of a Manager, or (iii) any employee, agent,
licensee, business invitee, guest, customer, contractor or submanager of any of
the foregoing parties, relating to, directly or indirectly, the respective
Facility; (c) any accident, claim of malpractice, injury or damage whatsoever
caused to any Person; (d) any default or Event of Default under this Agreement
by Manager or any liability, damage, loss, obligation, penalty, cost, and other

Agreement; (e) following closing pursuant to the Purchase Option set forth in
Section 13 any liability, damage, loss, obligation, penalty, cost, and other
expense whatsoever, whether arising before or after closing thereunder from the
Contracts, Leases, Legal Requirements, the Permits, or the operation of the
Facility or any business conducted therein; and (f) any liability under Section
6.10 of the Loan Agreement executed in connection with the Initial Senior Loan
and comparable provisions of the Initial Junior Loan except to the extent caused
by the actions of Owners. All costs and expenses of Manager pursuant to this
indemnity shall be at the sole expense of Manager except the cost or expense
shall be an Operating Expense rather than the sole expense of Manager only under
the following circumstances and only under subsections (a) and (c) above as long
as Manager was not in violation or breach of this Agreement, not negligent, and
such claim arose in the ordinary course of business. In all other circumstances,
all costs and expenses under this Section shall be the sole cost and expense of
Managers and shall not be an Operating Expense. The indemnity provided for in
this Section 6.1 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this
Agreement.

6.2 Indemnified Parties. As used in Section 6.1, the term "Indemnified Parties"
shall mean Owners or any of them, the Facility Entities or any of them, AL II
Holdings, any Mortgagee and their respective successors, assigns, employees,
servants, agents, attorneys, officers, directors, shareholders, members,
managers, partners and owners.

6.3 Indemnification by Owners. Owners, jointly and severally, agree to
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless with counsel reasonably acceptable to
Managers, the Managers and Emeritus from and against all damages, losses,
liabilities, obligations, penalties, costs and expenses (including without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and other expenses of
litigation) suffered by, or claimed or asserted against, the Managers or
Emeritus, directly or indirectly, by any Person based on, arising out of or
resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Owners under this
Agreement.

7. MANAGEMENT FEES

7.1 Payment. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2, the Facility Entities
shall pay the Managers for services rendered by the Managers pursuant to this
Agreement an amount equal to seven percent (7%) of the Total Revenues from all
Facilities in the aggregate then subject to this Agreement during the Initial
Term and any Extension Term of this Agreement ("Management Fee"), which amount
shall be paid on a monthly basis, based upon the Total Revenues earned by the
Facilities during the previous month, with the first payment to be made on the
4th day of the first full month after the Commencement Date, and continuing on
the 4th day of each month thereafter until the expiration or sooner termination
of this Agreement. During the Extension Term, the Management Fee shall be 7% of
Total Revenues with no further accrual of any portion of the Management Fee.

7.2 Limitation on Fees. The Management Fees payable to the Managers shall be
limited during the Initial Term to five percent (5%) of Total Revenues ("Base
Management Fee") until such time that the Facilities in the aggregate are
producing an Operating Profit for three (3) consecutive calendar months. The
unpaid two percent (2%) of the Management Fee shall be accrued without interest
until an Operating Profit is achieved for three (3) consecutive calendar months
("Accrued Management Fee"). From and after the date that the Facilities in the
aggregate continue to produce an Operating Profit for not less than three (3)
consecutive calendar months, the Managers shall be entitled to receive the full
Management Fee and the Accrued Management Fee from prior periods to the extent
Operating Profit is available therefor. If there is an Operating Deficit for
three (3) consecutive calendar months, the Management Fee shall be limited to
the Base Management Fee thereafter until Operating Profit is thereafter achieved
for three (3) consecutive calendar months. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, any obligation of Owners to pay any Accrued
Management Fee shall terminate automatically at the expiration of the Initial
Term if Emeritus does not timely exercise or at such time as it is not entitled
to exercise the Purchase Option set forth in Section 13, and in any event any
Accrued Management Fee shall be paid solely out of Operating Profit and neither
the Facility Entities nor AL Investors II shall have any liability to pay the
Accrued Management Fee during the Initial Term or upon expiration or sooner
termination of this Agreement from any other funds or by any Owner's Deficit
Contribution pursuant to Section 8.3.

8. ACCOUNTS; OPERATING DEFICIT CONTRIBUTIONS; RECORDS AND REPORTS

8.1 Bank Accounts. Manager shall establish an Agency Account and a Reserve
Account for each Facility (which may be aggregated for one or more Facilities as
Owner may reasonably specify) at a banking institution or institutions selected
by Owner after consultation with Manager, and such accounts shall be in


                                      -15-
<PAGE>

Manager's name, as agent for the respective Owner (collectively the "Facility
Accounts"). Manager, as agent of Owners, will deposit in the Agency Account all
monies received from the operation of the Facilities as Total Revenue and,
together with any interest earned thereon, will disburse the same from the
Agency Account for the purposes set forth in the following Section 8.2. Revenues
or funds received by Managers from the Facilities that do not constitute Total
Revenues shall be immediately paid to Owner or placed in the Agency Account as
directed by Owners. To the extent required under any Legal Requirement, deposits
received pursuant to any Residency Agreement shall be maintained in a segregated
Agency Account for such deposits, and all amounts in such segregated deposit
Agency Account shall be used only to refund deposits in accordance with
Residency Agreements and, if any such deposits are forfeited under the terms of
a Residency Agreement, for deposit into the Agency Account. All funds derived
from the deduction for the Reserve Fund described in Section 8.4 shall be placed
in the Reserve Account and shall be transferred to the Agency Account for the
purpose of disbursement as expenditures are made in accordance with the
provisions of Section 8.4. Manager shall not commingle any funds in the Facility
Accounts with Manager's or any Affiliate's other funds. Notwithstanding the
foregoing as to each of the Facility Accounts, the Owner shall be designated as
an additional signatory on each of the Facility Accounts entitled to withdraw
all or any of the funds in said accounts in the event that Manager has filed a
voluntary petition or is the subject of an involuntary petition in bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization under the bankruptcy law or in any event if this
Agreement has expired or sooner terminated. In addition, if Emeritus does not
timely exercise or no longer has the right to exercise the Purchase Option, then
Owner shall have the right to implement a cash management system whereby amounts
in the Agency Accounts are automatically swept into accounts of the Owners on a
monthly or other regular basis specified by Owners. Managers shall reasonably
cooperate with Owners in implementing such cash management system. It is
expressly agreed and understood that all funds standing in the Facility Accounts
described herein are the sole property of the respective Owner, notwithstanding
that Manager shall have the right to withdraw funds therefrom for the purposes
set forth in this Agreement.

8.2 Expenditures. In accordance with the Annual Plan, except as otherwise
approved by Owners, Managers as agent of the Facility Entities are hereby
authorized to pay from the Agency Account for each Facility in the following
order of priority such amounts and at such times as are required to pay the
following expenditures:

      (a) The Operating Expenses;


                                      -16-
<PAGE>

      (b) The Fixed Operating Expenses (exclusive of any Base, Accrued or other
Management Fee and Capital Improvements) except for such items as Owner has
elected to pay directly;

      (c) The cost of Capital Improvements approved by Owner;

      (d) The Base Management Fee or if the conditions set forth in Section 7.2
have been satisfied the full Management Fee for the current period;

      (e) The Accrued Management Fee from prior periods if the conditions set
forth in Section 7.2 have been satisfied;

      (f) Any Operating Deficit Loan (as defined in Section 8.3 below), if any:

      (g) Any Cash Available for Distribution to Owner, which shall be paid over
to Owners as directed by Owners within twenty (20) days after the end of each
calendar month during the Term.

Funds in the Agency Account shall not be utilized for any other purpose.

8.3 Deficit Contributions. It is anticipated that Total Revenues will be
sufficient to pay the Operating Expenses and Fixed Operating Expenses of the
Facilities during the Term. In the event that Total Revenue from the Facilities
is insufficient, or is anticipated to be insufficient, to pay the Operating
Expenses and Fixed Operating Expenses of the Facilities during any calendar
month during the Initial Term, then Emeritus shall loan such Operating Deficit
to Owners, with interest accruing at the Prime Rate ("Operating Deficit Loan").
If an Operating Deficit Loan for any calendar month is not repaid as provided in
Section 8.2 within six (6) months from the date of advance, then upon twenty
(20) days written notice from the Manager, Owners shall deposit or cause to be
deposited funds in the Agency Account in an amount equal to the outstanding
Operating Deficit Loan ("Owner's Deficit Contribution") which shall be used to
repay such Operating Deficit Loan. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to
the contrary, upon expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, repayment
and priority of any outstanding Operating Deficit Loan shall be subordinate in
all respects to repayment and priority of the Senior Loan.

8.4 Reserve Account. In the event the approved Annual Plan for any Facility
provides for expenditures of less than $250 per unit in such Facility for the
applicable Operating Year for replacements of Furnishings and Equipment or
Capital Improvements, there shall be deducted from Total Revenue as part of
Fixed Operating Expenses the difference between such expenditures and $250 per
unit in


                                      -17-
<PAGE>

such Facility for such Operating Year (or such lesser amount as Owners may
approve) funded quarterly and the cash funds so created shall be deposited in
the Reserve Account. Funds in the Reserve Account shall be utilized for the
purpose of making replacements, substitutions, and additions to Furnishings and
Equipment originally included in the Facility or Capital Improvements to the
extent approved by Owners in the Annual Plan or as directed by Owners to
maintain each Facility in good order and operating condition. Funds in the
Reserve Account shall be invested in an interest bearing account or securities
as Owners may direct and interest thereon shall be added to the Reserve Account.
Funds from the Reserve Account shall not be utilized for any other purpose.

8.5 Books and Records. Under Manager's supervision, each Facility shall keep (at
the Facility or at Emeritus' corporate headquarters) full and adequate books of
account and such other records and information as are necessary to reflect the
results of the operation of the Facility and to comply with all Legal
Requirements with respect to the Facility. Managers will keep the books and
records for each Facility in all material respects in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles except as otherwise approved by Owners. All such
records shall be and remain the exclusive property of the Owners, subject to
Manager's right to make and retain copies thereof.

8.6 Reports to Owners. Manager and Emeritus will deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to Owners the following forecasts, budgets, reports and statements
each in form reasonably acceptable to Owners:

8.6.1 Not later than December 1 the draft Annual Plan for the succeeding
Operating Year;

8.6.2 Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month, an end of
the month financial report showing the results of operation of each Facility and
a balance sheet for the prior month and the year to date for each Facility and
all Facilities in the aggregate prepared in accordance with GAAP and certified
as fairly representing the financial results in all material respects by a
financial officer of Emeritus;

8.6.3 Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month during the
Term, a computation for all Facilities in the aggregate and for each Facility
individually of Total Revenue, Operating Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses and
Operating Deficit or Operating Profit for the prior month, year to date, and for
Operating Profit or Operating Deficit cumulative from the Commencement Date, in
each case on a cash basis and certified as fairly representing the financial
results in all material respects by a financial officer of Emeritus;


                                      -18-
<PAGE>

8.6.4 As soon as practicable after each Operating Year, but in any event, within
seventy-five (75) days of the end of each Operating Year, an income statement
and balance sheet for all Facilities in the aggregate and for each Facility
individually in form reasonably acceptable to Owners as of the last day of such
Operating Year, which income statement and balance sheet shall be certified as
fairly representing the financial results in all material respects by a
financial officer of Emeritus and if requested by Owners be audited by an
independent nationally recognized accounting firm approved by Owners and such
other annual end of year financial reports as may be reasonably necessary for
each Owner and Owners to file its or their federal and state income tax returns;

8.6.5 The financial reports to be delivered to any Mortgagee as more
particularly defined in the respective Mortgage or related loan documents;

8.6.6 Within ninety (90) days after the end of each fiscal year of Emeritus,
audited financial statements of Emeritus prepared by an independent "big five"
accounting firm approved by Owners, prepared in accordance with GAAP, including
a balance sheet and an income statement for such fiscal year, certified as true
and correct in all material respects by a financial officer of Emeritus.
Emeritus shall also submit to Owners, upon its filing thereof, a copy of any
Form 10K or Form 10Q as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission;

8.6.7 Copies of all Medicare and/or Medicaid cost reports and any amendments
thereto filed with any Governmental Authority with respect to any Facility, and
all responses, audit reports and other correspondence and other documents
received with respect to such cost reports.

8.6.8 Within three (3) days of receipt, copies of any notice received from any
Governmental Authority or Third Party Payor that any Permit, Medicare and/or
Medicaid certification or similar item with respect to a Facility is being
downgraded, revoked or suspended or that any such action is pending or being
considered.

8.6.9 Such other reports reasonably required by Owners or any Mortgagee.

8.7 Rights to Inspection and Review. Each Owner, its accountants, attorneys,
agents and any Mortgagee shall have the right to enter upon any part of any
Facility at any time during normal business hours during the Term, and on not
less than eight (8) hours prior notice unless an emergency exists, for the
purpose of examining or inspecting the same or examining and making extracts and
copies of books and records of the Facility or for any other purpose, including
audits, which


                                      -19-
<PAGE>

the Owner of any Facility, in its discretion, shall deem necessary or advisable,
but same shall be done with as little disruption to the business of the Facility
as practicable. Books and records of the Facility shall be kept at the Facility
and a summary thereof in such location as directed by Owners.

8.8 Deficiencies and Overpayments. If any audit or financial report discloses a
deficiency in the reporting of Total Revenues, or any overpayment in Operating
Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses or Management Fees, Managers shall forthwith
recalculate Operating Profit, Operating Deficit or Management Fees and pay to
the Owners any overpayment or otherwise, together with interest at Manager's
sole expense on the amount of deficiency or overpayment, calculated at the
Overdue Rate, from the date when such overpayment was made until the date Owners
receive return of such overpayment. If any audit conducted for Owners pursuant
to the provisions hereof discloses that the Total Revenues for any Operating
Year exceed those reported by Managers by more than five percent (5%) or that
the full Management Fee or any Accrued Management Fee was overpaid by more than
five percent (5%), the Managers at their sole expense (and not as an Operating
Expense) shall pay the reasonable cost of such audit and examination. Otherwise,
the cost of audits approved by Owners shall be an Operating Expense.

8.9 Survival. The obligations and rights of the Managers and Owners referenced
in Section 8.8 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
Agreement for a period of three (3) years.

9. TERMINATION RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

9.1 By Managers. The Managers may terminate this Agreement with respect to all
(but not less than all) of the Facilities by reason of any of the following
("Event of Default"): (i) failure of Owners to fund an Operating Deficit in
accordance with Section 8.3 within fifteen (15) days after written notice to the
Owner that payment has not been paid when due; or (ii) the Owner otherwise
breaches or fails to perform a material term of this Agreement, which breach or
failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice of said breach
is provided to Owner. Provided, however, that Manager shall not have the right
to terminate this Agreement without the prior written consent of any Mortgagee.
Provided, further, Manager shall have no right to terminate this Agreement nor
shall Owner be in default if such right to terminate or such default is caused
by a default or an Event of Default committed or suffered hereunder by Managers
or Emeritus.

If Managers terminate the Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1, such
termination shall not terminate the Purchase Option under Section 13 below, and
the Purchase Option shall remain in full force and effect. If Managers terminate
this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1 and the Purchase Option is
thereafter


                                      -20-
<PAGE>

exercised, the purchaser shall be entitled to offset and deduct from the
Purchase Price that portion of Owner's Deficit Contribution which Owners did not
fund but were required to do so in accordance with Section 8.3 and which
Managers or Emeritus funded and were not reimbursed by Owners.

9.2 Owner. The Owner may terminate this Agreement with respect to any one or all
of the Facilities by reason of any of the following (each an "Event of
Default"): (i) Emeritus breaches or fails to perform any obligation, including
but not limited to the warranties, representations and indemnities, under the
Emeritus Guaranty which is not cured within the time period set forth therein;
(ii) Emeritus or its Affiliates fail to perform any obligation under the
Purchase Agreements which survive closing thereunder; (iii) Managers or any of
them or Emeritus breaches or fails to perform a material term of this Agreement
as to any or all Facilities, which breach or failure is not cured within thirty
(30) days after written notice of said breach is provided to the Managers; (iv)
Daniel Baty fails to perform or defaults under the Put and Purchase Agreement
within the time period set forth therein; (v) Emeritus fails to perform or
defaults under the Licensing Indemnity Agreement within the time period set
forth therein; or (vi) either Manager or Emeritus suffers a Bankruptcy Event.
Provided, however, Owners shall have no right to terminate this Agreement nor
shall Managers be in default if such right to terminate or such default is
caused by a failure by Owner to fund Operating Deficits to the extent provided
in Section 8.3. Any such termination pursuant to this Section 9.2 shall also
constitute a termination of the Purchase Option.

9.3 Curing Defaults. Except for failure to close under the Purchase Option set
forth in Section 13, or a default under Section 9.2(iv), (v), or (vi), any
default by Managers or Owner under the provisions of Section 9.1 or 9.2, except
for defaults involving the payment of money which must be cured within the
applicable cure period, shall not constitute an Event of Default if the nature
of such default will not permit it to be cured within the cure period allotted,
provided that either Managers or Owner promptly shall commence to cure such
default and shall proceed to complete the same with diligence but in no event
later than sixty (60) days after the written notice of default has been given.

9.4 Effect of Termination. The termination of this Agreement in whole or in part
under the provisions of this Section 9 shall not affect the rights of the
terminating party with respect to any damages it may have suffered as a result
of any breach of this Agreement, nor shall it affect the rights of either party
with respect to liability or claims accrued or arising out of events occurring
prior to the date of termination. Any termination of this Agreement, whether in
whole or in part, other than by reason of an Event of Default by Owner and other
than as a result of a Casualty or Condemnation as to a particular Facility,
shall automatically terminate the Purchase Option provided for in Section 13,
but any termination of


                                      -21-
<PAGE>

this Agreement by reason of an Event of Default by Owner shall not terminate the
Purchase Option provided for in Section 13. Upon any termination, Owner shall
repay any outstanding Operating Deficit Loan subject to prior repayment of the
Senior Loan as more particularly provided in Section 8.3.

9.5 Remedies Cumulative. The right of termination shall not be an exclusive
remedy and either party shall have the right to sue for damages or seek
equitable relief following an Event of Default. Neither the right of termination
nor the right to sue for damages nor any other remedy available to either party
hereunder shall be exclusive of any other remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity.

9.6 Transfer Upon Termination. Upon expiration or sooner termination of this
Agreement in whole or in part, except for termination upon closing under the
Purchase Option, Managers at their sole expense shall transfer or assign as
directed by Owners to the respective Facility Entity all books, records,
Facility Accounts, Permits, Contracts, Leases, any Personal Property owned by or
in the possession of Managers, all of which shall be free and clear of all Liens
(except for the Mortgage), and other matters and things utilized by Manager in
the operation of the Facilities which are no longer subject to this Agreement.
In such event, legal title to any vans or buses in the name of Emeritus or
Managers shall be transferred to the respective Facility Entity free and clear
of Liens at the sole cost of Managers and for no additional consideration.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all licensing fees and sales
tax on the transfer shall be paid by Emeritus and Managers. Upon any termination
of this Agreement, Manager shall assign and otherwise take all actions required
to effectively transfer to the Facility Entities all Permits which are required
under applicable Legal Requirements to be issued in the name of Managers.
Managers shall cooperate fully in such transfer and shall not interfere with an
Owner employing any and all employees of the Facility who desire to accept such
Owner's offer of employment. Manager's obligations hereunder and under the
Purchase Agreements and Owner's remedies for breach thereof shall survive the
expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement and the transfer and
assignment herein.

9.7 Termination of Agreement as to Individual Facilities. The parties
acknowledge that this is a master Management Agreement with respect to all of
the Facilities and this Agreement may be terminated by Owner as to a particular
Facility in one or more of the following circumstances. In such event, this
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as to the remaining
Facilities.

9.7.1 Default. There has been an Event of Default by the Manager as to a
particular Facility and Owner has terminated this Agreement as to such Facility;


                                      -22-
<PAGE>

9.7.2 Casualty or Condemnation. There has been an election by Owner to terminate
this Agreement as to a particular Facility resulting from Casualty or
Condemnation which Owner has elected not to repair as provided for in Section
11; or

9.7.3 Termination During Extension Term. If Owner has elected the option for the
Extension Term, Owner may terminate this Agreement as to any Facility in its
sole discretion upon not less than sixty (60) days prior notice to the Manager;

9.7.4 Termination of Put Facilities. Upon closing of the purchase of a Put
Facility pursuant to the Put and Purchase Agreement, such Put Facility or
Facilities shall be automatically deleted from this Agreement.

9.7.5 Termination of Failed Facilities. Upon closing of the purchase by Emeritus
or its Affiliates of a Failed Facility pursuant to the Licensing Indemnity
Agreement, such Failed Facility or Facilities shall be automatically deleted
from this Agreement.

In the event of the termination of this Agreement as to less than all of the
Facilities, then in determining Operating Deficit and Operating Profit the
Facilities, less only those Facilities terminated pursuant to Section 9.7.2 -
9.7.5, shall be the basis for such calculations.

10. ASSIGNMENT

10.1 Assignment by Manager. Manager shall not assign, transfer or encumber this
Agreement or any right or interest herein or hereunder voluntarily or by
operation of law or in any other manner without the prior written consent of
Owners, which may be withheld in their sole discretion.

10.2 Assignment by Facility Entities. Owners may assign or transfer this
Agreement to any Affiliate or to any Mortgagee without the consent of Emeritus
or Managers. In such event, the Owner or Owners assigning this Agreement (except
as to an assignment for security purposes to any Mortgagee, but not excepting
the realization by such Mortgagee of such assignment in connection with a
foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage or the granting of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure to such Mortgagee) shall be relieved of all liability under this
Agreement accruing or arising out of facts and circumstances occurring after the
date of such assignment, except for the obligation to fund the Owner's Deficit
Contribution pursuant to Section 8.3 (which shall not apply to the holder of any
Senior Loan). In connection with any


                                      -23-
<PAGE>

security assignment to a Mortgagee, Managers and Emeritus shall subordinate this
Agreement to the Mortgage in such form as any Mortgagee may require.

10.3 Refinancing. Without the consent of Managers and Emeritus, the Facility
Entities shall have the right to refinance the Mortgage initially held by the
Lending Group as to one or more Facilities upon the following terms and
conditions:

10.3.1 Obligations of Managers and Emeritus. Any refinancing shall provide that
upon closing of the Purchase Option, Emeritus may assume the Mortgage resulting
from such refinancing upon commercially-reasonable terms including payment of
the Mortgagee's assumption expenses and an assumption fee not to exceed one-half
percent (.5%) of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage.

10.3.2 Segregation of this Agreement. In connection with a refinancing, this
Agreement shall be segregated into two or more separate management agreements
with the Facilities being managed pursuant to each management agreement
corresponding to the Facilities subject to each Mortgage or Mortgages held by a
separate Mortgagee. In such event, the terms and conditions of each separate
management agreement shall be the same as this Agreement, except Total Revenues,
Operating Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses, Operating Profit and Operating
Deficit shall be computed only with respect to the Facilities subject to each
separate management agreement. Each segregated management agreement may be
assigned to the respective Mortgagee and shall be subordinate to the respective
Mortgage as provided in Section 10.2 above. Upon such segregation, Emeritus
shall execute a restated Emeritus Guaranty or such other confirmation of the
continuing obligations under the Emeritus Guaranty.

10.3.3 Costs of Refinancing. The reasonable costs and expenses of such
refinancing, including but not limited to the Mortgagee's title review and
insurance, due diligence, loan fees, mortgage taxes (if any), loan document
preparation, legal fees, and other customary loan closing costs, together with
Owners' reasonable costs and expenses of arranging and closing such refinancing,
shall be an Operating Expense unless otherwise approved or directed by Owners in
their sole discretion.

10.4 Remedies. Any assignment by either party of this Agreement in violation of
the provisions of this Section 10 shall be null and void. In addition to any
other remedies available to the parties, the provisions of this Section 10 shall
be enforceable by injunctive proceeding or by a suit for specific performance.

11. CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

11.1 Casualty. If a Facility shall be damaged by a Casualty such that Owner
determines in its sole but good faith judgment that it is not feasible to
restore the Facility, or if for any reason insurance proceeds are not available
to effect such restoration, then Owner may terminate this Agreement as to that
Facility upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Manager, and neither
party shall have any further obligation to the other party hereunder with
respect to that Facility and this Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect as to the remaining Facilities. If this Agreement shall not be terminated
by Owner in the event of a Casualty to the Facility, then Owner with the
cooperation of Manager, or Manager if Owner so directs, shall proceed with
reasonable diligence to commence and complete the restoration of the Facility to
substantially its condition and character just prior to the occurrence of such
casualty to the extent permitted under Legal Requirements. The cost of
restoration shall not be an Operating Expense or Fixed Operating Expense except
to the extent such cost of restoration exceeds available insurance proceeds and
such costs of restoration in excess of available insurance proceeds, including
any deductibles under applicable insurance policies shall constitute an
Operating Expense.

11.2 Condemnation. If a Facility is subject to Condemnation, or such substantial
portion thereto as to make it unfeasible, in the sole but good faith judgment of
Owner, to restore and continue to operate the remaining portion of the Facility
following Condemnation, then upon the Date of Taking, this Agreement shall
terminate as to that Facility and neither party shall have any further
obligation to the other party hereunder with respect to that Facility and this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to the remaining Facilities.
If Owner elects to restore and continue to operate the remaining portion of the
Facility, then this Agreement shall not terminate as to the Facility, and Owner
with the cooperation of Manager, or Manager if Owner so directs, shall proceed
with reasonable diligence to repair any damage to the Facility, or to alter or
modify the Facility so as to render it a complete architectural unit which can
be operated as a Facility of substantially the same type and class as before.
The cost of restoration shall not be an Operating Expense or Fixed Operating
Expense except to the extent the cost of restoration exceeds the net amount of
any Award received by any Owner. In the case of any Condemnation, whether or not
this Agreement shall cease and terminate, the entire Award shall be the property
of Owner, and Manager hereby assigns to Owner all its right, title and interest
in and to any Award. Manager shall have the right, however, to claim and recover
from the condemning authority compensation for any loss which Manager may be put
for Manager's moving expenses or taking of Manager's personal property (not
including any value assigned to this Agreement), provided that such damages may
be claimed only if


                                      -25-
<PAGE>

they are awarded separately in the Condemnation proceedings and not out of or as
part of the Award recoverable by Owner.

12. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS.

Any program of improvements, or improvement involving an addition to a Facility
or the renovation or refurbishing of the Facility, the cost of which is not or
should not be charged to property operation and maintenance and which should be
capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, shall
be a "Capital Improvement." Capital Improvements shall be undertaken only upon
the approval of or direction by Owner in its sole discretion, which may be by
separate approval or by specific inclusion in the Annual Plan. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, Emeritus shall have the unconditional
obligation at its sole expense (and not as an Operating Expense or Fixed
Operating Expense) to complete and pay for: (a) to the extent Managers or
Emeritus are obligated to perform or pay for construction of kitchen facilities
at Facility entitled Park Club of Oakbridge, (b) all Capital Improvements made
or contracted or committed during calendar year 1998 and the first quarter of
1999, (c) any sales tax or other Impositions resulting from construction of any
Facilities in Texas. All capital improvements required by that letter agreement
dated March 26, 1999 between AL Investors II and the Lending Group related to
Anderson Place shall be performed by the Managers at their direct cost (without
markup of any kind) within six (6) months of the date hereof, but the cost
thereof shall be an Operating Expense or Fixed Operating Expense as the case may
be. To the extent any improvements to the Facilities are to be funded from an
escrow or similar account at Closing under the Purchase Agreements or the terms
of any Mortgage ("Holdback Accounts"), such improvements shall not be deemed
Capital Improvements hereunder and the cost thereof shall not be Operating
Expenses or Fixed Operating Expenses. Managers shall expeditiously cause the
completion of all improvements to be funded by the Holdback Accounts.

13. EMERITUS' OPTION TO PURCHASE

13.1 Conditions to Option. On the conditions precedent (which conditions Owners
may waive, in their sole discretion, by notice to Emeritus at any time) that (a)
at the time of exercise of the Purchase Option, there then exists no Event of
Default under this Agreement, or the AL II Development Management Agreement by
the Managers or Emeritus, and (b) Emeritus timely complies with the provisions
of this Section 13, and (c) the Purchase Option under the AL II Development
Management Agreement has been exercised simultaneously by delivery of a Purchase
Option Notice (as defined therein) and (d) if a Put Notice has been delivered on
account of Section 3.1(d) or 3.1(e) of the Put and Purchase Agreement, less than
sixty (60) days has elapsed since delivery of such Put Notice,


                                      -26-
<PAGE>

then Emeritus or its Affiliates shall have the option to purchase all, but not
less than all, of the Facilities then subject to this Agreement including,
without limitation, any Facilities which are the subject of a segregated
Management Agreement pursuant to Section 10.3, at the price and upon the terms
hereinafter set forth in this Section 13 (the "Purchase Option").

13.2 Exercise of Option; Deposit. The Purchase Option shall permit Emeritus to
purchase the Facilities (a) at any time during the Initial Term but not later
than the last day of the Initial Term ("Purchase Option Expiration Date")
provided that written notice of the exercise of the option is given by Emeritus
to the Owners (the "Purchase Option Notice") at least one hundred eighty (180)
days prior to the Purchase Option Expiration Date. Emeritus shall have no right
to rescind the Purchase Option Notice once given. With the Purchase Option
Notice, Emeritus shall deposit with the Owners the sum of $340,000 (together
with the interest earned thereon, the "Deposit") which shall constitute
liquidated damages and Owners' sole remedy if Emeritus fails to consummate the
purchase of the Facilities for any reason other than Owners' default and refusal
to deliver the Deeds conveying the Facilities upon payment of the Purchase
Price, but the Deposit shall be applied to the Purchase Price if the Purchase
Option closes. Emeritus and the Owners acknowledge that damages that would
accrue from Emeritus' failure to close the Purchase Option are difficult to
determine and that the amount of liquidated damages set forth above constitutes
a good faith and reasonable estimate of the damages that would otherwise have
accrued. The Deposit shall be deposited in a money market or similar account
with a commercial bank with all interest thereon remaining in such account and
reported as income of Emeritus, and Emeritus agrees to complete a Form W-9 and
such other forms as such bank may require in order to report such interest.

13.3 Conveyance. If the Purchase Option is exercised by Emeritus in accordance
with the terms hereof, each Facility shall be conveyed by a special warranty
deed subject to the Permitted Exceptions, Leases, Contracts and Permits (except
for the Mortgage) and all matters arising through or with the consent of
Managers or Emeritus with covenants only against acts of Owners or Persons
claiming by, through or under Owners during their period of ownership, a quit
claim bill of sale as to all Personal Property, and a quit claim assignment of
all Leases, Contracts, Permits, and funds in Facility Accounts in form
satisfactory to Owners (collectively, the "Deed") running to Emeritus or to its
designee. Transfer of all Permits to Emeritus or its Affiliate designee in
accordance with Legal Requirements shall be the sole responsibility of Emeritus.
Owners, other than an obligation to reasonably cooperate (at no material
out-of-pocket cost) in such transfer, shall have no liability or responsibility
for the adequacy or completeness of any transfer of the Permits. Owners shall
reasonably cooperate with Emeritus and its title companies in order to provide
all necessary documents, owner's affidavits (provided Owners


                                      -27-
<PAGE>

have no liability thereunder except for their own acts during their period of
ownership) and other evidence of authority to enable Emeritus to purchase title
insurance covering all of the Facilities at the closing under the Purchase
Option.

13.4 Calculation of Purchase Price. The price to be paid by Emeritus for the
acquisition of the Facilities pursuant to this Purchase Option shall be equal to
the amount calculated as set forth on Exhibit B ("Purchase Price"). The Purchase
Price shall be a net price to be received by Owners without deduction for due
diligence, transfer taxes, title insurance or other closing costs, all of which
shall be paid by Emeritus. Owners shall not bear any closing costs or prorations
of any kind or nature, subject to any offset as provided in Section 9.1. and
except for repayment of any outstanding Operating Deficit Loan.

13.5 Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price, less the Deposit, shall be
paid by Emeritus at the Time of Closing in good funds.

13.6 Place and Time of Closing. If this Purchase Option is exercised, the
closing shall occur and the Deed for each Facility shall be delivered to Title
Company (the "Closing") pursuant to escrow closing arrangements reasonably
satisfactory to Owners and Emeritus at 12:00 o'clock noon (P.S.T.) one hundred
eighty (180) days following delivery of the Purchase Option Notice but in no
event later than the Purchase Option Expiration Date (such time, as the same may
be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, the "Time of Closing"). It is
agreed that time is of the essence of this Purchase Option.

13.7 Condition of Facilities. The Facilities and each of them shall be purchased
by Emeritus "AS IS" and "WHERE IS" as of the Time of Closing. Without limiting
the foregoing, and except as set forth in the Deed, Owners make and shall not
make representations or warranties, express or implied, with respect to, and
shall have no liability for: (i) the condition of the Facilities or any
Improvements thereon or the suitability, habitability, merchantability or
fitness of the Facilities; (ii) compliance with any Legal Requirements; (iii)
the presence of any Hazardous Substances in or about the Facilities, including
without limitation asbestos or urea-formaldehyde, or the presence of any
Hazardous Substances on or under the Land; (iv) the accuracy or completeness of
any plans and specifications, reports, or other materials provided to Emeritus;
or (v) any other matter relating to the Facilities, including, without
limitation, the title thereto or the condition, value or operating results or
prospects thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Owners
shall have no liability to Emeritus with respect to the condition of the
Facilities under common law, or under any Legal Requirements and Emeritus hereby
waives any and all claims which Emeritus has or may have against Owners with
respect to the condition, value or operating results or prospects of the
Facilities. Emeritus assumes the responsibility and risks of all defects and


                                      -28-
<PAGE>

conditions, including such defects and conditions, if any, that cannot be
observed by inspection or examination of records. Managers and Emeritus shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Owners from and against all claims and
liabilities arising out of or related to the Facilities as more particularly set
forth in Section 6.1 and from and against any guaranties of any Mortgages, it
being intended that Owners shall have no liability from and after the Time of
Closing with respect to the Facilities, except as set forth in the Deed.

13.8 Use of Purchase Price to Clear Title. To enable the Facility Entities to
make the conveyance as provided in this Section 13, the Facility Entities may,
at the Time of Closing, use the Purchase Price or any portion thereof to clear
the title of any Mortgage, provided that all instruments so procured are
recorded contemporaneously with the Closing or reasonable arrangements are made
for recording subsequent to the Time of Closing in accordance with customary
conveyance practices.

13.9 Emeritus' Default. If Emeritus delivers the Purchase Option Notice and
fails to timely consummate the purchase of the Facilities in accordance with the
terms hereof for any reason other than Facility Entities' default and refusal to
deliver the Deed, (a) the Purchase Option hereunder and under the AL II
Development Management Agreement shall be deemed terminated and Emeritus shall
thereafter have no further right to purchase the Facilities pursuant to this
Section 13 or otherwise, (b) Owners shall retain the Deposit as liquidated
damages and as Owners' sole remedy in full satisfaction of any claims against
Emeritus for its failure to consummate the purchase of the Facilities, but
nothing herein shall relieve Emeritus from its obligations under the Emeritus
Guaranty, and (c) Owners shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
without further notice.

14. INTENTIONALLY DELETED

15. GENERAL PROVISIONS

15.1 Purchases by Manager. In purchasing services, goods and supplies for the
Facilities, Managers shall use their best efforts to obtain the benefits of

discounts, rebates and refunds, and all returns from the sale of Furnishings and
Equipment and Operating Equipment or other equipment shall accrue to the benefit
of the Facility Entities.

EXHIBIT B
TO MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
WITH OPTION TO PURCHASE

Determination of Purchase Price

The Purchase Price with respect to all of the Facilities means:

      (a) The amount required to repay the Senior Loan secured by all Facilities
in full, including prepayment penalties or other costs of repayment; plus

      (b) The amount required to repay that portion of the Junior Loan allocable
by AL II Holdings to the Facilities (which allocation, together with the
allocation of the Junior Loan set forth in Exhibit C to the AL II Development
Management Agreement, shall repay the Junior Loan in full) evidenced by that
certain Promissory Note dated of even date herewith, in the original principal
amount of $19,704,000, including repayment of the allocable portion of
principal, Base Interest, and Contingent Interest, as such terms are defined
therein, plus

      (c) The amount required to repay in full the initial investment of
$3,400,000 made by the members of AL II Holdings through AL Investors II to
acquire the Facilities, plus any additional contributions by AL II Holdings to
AL Investors II, plus an eighteen percent per annum rate of return, compounded
annually (computed taking into account any distributions made by AL Investors II
to AL II Holdings from time to time), plus an additional amount equal to
$68,000, as may be increased by the Emeritus Stock Appreciation Amount, plus

      (d) The outstanding amount of any Operating Deficit Loan, plus

      (e) The reasonable costs allocable to the Facilities which AL II Holdings,
AL Investors II and its Subsidiaries will incur to dissolve and fully liquidate.

The foregoing Option Price is intended to equal the purchase price which would
be required to be paid for the Facilities in connection with a dissolution and
liquidation of AL Investors II and its Subsidiaries (assuming a simultaneous
closing of the Purchase Option under the AL II Development Management
Agreement), to provide a net liquidating payment to the members of AL II
Holdings, after satisfaction in full of the Senior Loan and the Junior Loan, and
payment of all reasonable costs of such assumed dissolutions, equal to AL II
Holdings' investment in AL Investors II plus an 18% per annum return, compounded
annually (computed taking into account periodic distributions), plus $68,000 as
may be increased by


                                      B-1
<PAGE>

the Emeritus Stock Appreciation Amount. The parties hereto acknowledge such
intention and agree that the foregoing shall be construed accordingly.

For purposes hereof, the "Emeritus Stock Appreciation Amount" means (a) the sum
of $68,000 divided by the arithmetic average of the closing price of one share
of Emeritus common stock as reported in the Wall Street Journal for the
60-trading-day period preceding the Commencement Date plus $1, which amount is
_____________; (b) the quotient of (a) multiplied by the arithmetic average of
the closing price of one share of Emeritus common stock as reported in the Wall
Street Journal for the 20-trading-day period preceding the Time of Closing (as
defined in Section 13 of the Management Agreement); and (c) the product derived
from (b) less $68,000 (if such number is negative, it shall be deemed zero). The
foregoing calculation shall be appropriately adjusted for any dilution of
Emeritus common stock occurring between the Commencement Date and the Time of
Closing.

GUARANTY OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
(AL II - 14 Operating Facilities)

This Guaranty of Management Agreement ("Agreement") dated as of the _____ day of
March, 1999, is entered into by Emeritus Corporation, a Washington corporation
("Emeritus"), in favor of AL Investors II LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company ("AL Investors II"), for itself and as sole managing member on behalf of
each of the Facility Entities as set forth in Exhibit A (collectively "Facility
Entities" and each a "Facility Entity"). Al Investors II and the respective
Facility Entity which owns a Facility are sometimes collectively referred to
herein as "Owner" or with respect to all Facilities "Owners". All capitalized
terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in Exhibit
A.

This Agreement is made with reference to the following facts:

A. AL Investors II has entered into (a) a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated of
even date herewith with Meditrust Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company ("Meditrust") relating to the purchase of the Facilities, and (b) a
Supplemental Purchase Agreement dated of even date herewith with Emeritus,
Emeritus Properties I, Inc., ESC G.P. I, Inc. and ESC I, L.P. in connection with
the purchase of the Facilities (collectively the "Purchase Agreements"). Closing
under the Purchase Agreements will occur simultaneously and the resulting pool
of fourteen (14) Facilities will each be owned by the respective Facility Entity
and managed by Emeritus Management LLC and Emeritus Management I LP and their
Affiliates (the "Managers") pursuant to a Management Agreement with Option to
Purchase between Managers and Owners dated the same date of this Agreement
("Management Agreement"). Existing leases of the Facilities by an Emeritus
Affiliate from Meditrust and the existing management agreements for each of the
Facilities have been terminated.

B. Under the terms and conditions of the Management Agreement, Managers have
agreed to manage all of the Facilities and perform other obligations as set
forth therein.

C. Concurrently with the execution of the Management Agreement, Emeritus agreed
to enter into this Agreement in favor of Owners guaranteeing the Managers'
obligations under the Management Agreement. Owners would not have entered into
the Purchase Agreements or the Management Agreement without execution and
delivery of this Agreement.

In consideration of the Owners entering into the Purchase Agreement and the
Management Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Emeritus agrees as follows:


- -1-
<PAGE>

1. Obligations. Emeritus hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees to each of Owners prompt payment and performance to Owners when due,
whether by acceleration or otherwise, of all indebtedness, liabilities, and
obligations of Managers to Owners of any kind or nature whatsoever under or
arising from the Management Agreement, or any modification, supplementation or
replacement thereof, or from other dealings by which any one or more of Owners
may become a creditor of Managers including but not limited to all of the
foregoing which arise or would accrue but for the filing of any bankruptcy or
other insolvency proceedings by or against any Manager (the "Obligations").

2. Consent to Modification of Obligations. Without affecting, diminishing or
otherwise impairing the liability of Emeritus hereunder and without notice to or
consent of Emeritus, Owners may from time to time grant renewals, extensions,
indulgences, releases and discharges to Managers or any other Person liable for
any of the Obligations, and may take security for payment of the Obligations,
and may release any or all security or refrain from perfecting any interest in
any security granted by Managers or any guarantor or other person or entity
liable for any of the Obligations. Owners may amend or modify the Obligations or
any document or instrument executed to evidence the Obligations and otherwise
may deal with the Managers or any other Person liable for any of the
Obligations, without notice to or consent of Emeritus, and without affecting,
diminishing, or otherwise impairing the liability of Emeritus under this
Agreement.

3. Consent to Waivers, Etc. by Owners. Owners may from time to time consent to
any action or non-action of Managers under the Management Agreement or any other
Person liable for any of the Obligations, which, in the absence of such consent,
violates or may violate the provisions of the Management Agreement or any
document or instrument otherwise executed in connection with the Obligations,
and such consent may be granted by Owners, without notice to or consent of
Emeritus and without in any manner affecting, diminishing, or impairing the
liability of Emeritus under this Agreement. No waiver, modification, extension,
forbearance, or delay on the part of the Owners with respect to the Obligations
or with respect to any document, instrument or agreement evidencing the
Obligations, securing repayment of the Obligations or otherwise executed in
connection with the Obligations, and no act or thing which might, but for this
provision of this Agreement, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge of a
surety, shall operate to release the obligations of Emeritus under this
Agreement, and no delay on the part of the Owners in exercising any of their
options, powers, or rights under this Agreement, or any partial or single
exercise thereof shall constitute a waiver of any other rights hereunder.

4. Continued Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue to be
effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of all
or any part of the Obligations is rescinded or otherwise must be returned by
Owners upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any of the Managers
all as though such payment to Owners had not been made.


- -2-
<PAGE>

5. Form and Powers of Managers. No change in the name, purposes, capitalization,
ownership, form or organization of Managers shall in any way affect, diminish,
or otherwise impair the liability of Emeritus. Owners shall not be obligated to
inquire into the powers of the Managers notwithstanding that any of the
Obligations may be in excess of the powers of the Managers.

6. Guaranty of Payment and Performance. This is a guaranty of payment and
performance and Owners shall not be obligated to exhaust their recourse against
the Managers, or any other Person, or any security they may have for performance
or payment of the Obligations before being entitled to payment and performance
from Emeritus of the Obligations.

7. Effect of Certain Laws. Notwithstanding the provisions of the laws of any
state, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and no invalidity,
irregularity, or unenforceability (by reason of any bankruptcy or similar law,
any other law or any order of any Governmental Authorities thereof purporting to
reduce, amend, or otherwise affect any liability or obligation of the Managers)
and no release or discharge of the Managers, or rejection of the Management
Agreement by any one or more of the Managers or any trustee, receiver or similar
official on behalf of the Managers (whether pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 365 or
otherwise), in any receivership, bankruptcy, liquidation, winding-up,
reorganization or other proceedings shall affect, diminish, or otherwise impair
or otherwise be a defense to this Agreement. If Owners are stayed by any
bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to Managers from declaring the
Obligations immediately due and payable from Managers, it may nevertheless do so
as to Emeritus.

8. No Conditions to Agreement. This Agreement is absolute and unconditional and
has been delivered free of any conditions and no representations have been made
to Emeritus affecting or limiting the liability of Emeritus under this
Agreement. This Agreement is in addition to and not in substitution for any
agreement of Emeritus in the Management Agreement, the Purchase Agreements or in
any other document or instrument executed by Emeritus agreeing to perform all or
any part of the Obligations.

9. Continuing Agreement. This is a continuing guaranty and agreement. No action
or proceeding brought or instituted under this Agreement and no recovery in
pursuance thereof shall be a bar or defense to any further action or proceeding
which may be brought under this Agreement by reason of the same or any further
default or defaults under this Agreement or in the performance and observance of
the terms, covenants, conditions, and provisions in the Obligations, or any
document, instrument or agreement evidencing the Obligations, securing repayment
of the Obligations or otherwise executed in connection with the Obligations.


- -3-
<PAGE>

10. Certain Waivers by Emeritus. Emeritus hereby waives presentment, protest,
notice, demand, notice of nonpayment or action on delinquency in respect to any
of the Obligations and all other suretyship defenses generally. Emeritus waives
acceptance of this Agreement. Emeritus agrees that no release, delay,
compromise, indulgence, or other action or failure to act by Owners with respect
to any other Person liable for any of the Obligations shall in any manner
affect, diminish or impair the liability of Emeritus under this Agreement.

11. Survival. This Agreement shall survive expiration or sooner termination of
the Management Agreement for the period prior to December 31, 2001 with respect
to all terms and provisions of the Management Agreement which by their terms
survive expiration or sooner termination of the Management Agreement.

12. Subordination. Emeritus hereby subordinates any and all debts owed to
Emeritus by Managers or any other Person liable for any of the Obligations, and
any and all security for such debts, to the prior payment and performance in
full of the Obligations.

13. Joint and Several Obligation. Emeritus' obligations to Owners for payment
and performance of the Obligations shall be joint and several with the
obligations of Managers therefor.

14. Waiver of Subrogation. Emeritus waives all rights of subrogation to the
rights of Owners, and all rights of indemnity, contribution and reimbursement
against Owners, but not against Managers, but any such claim shall not be
asserted by Emeritus against Managers until after expiration of the Management
Agreement, payment and performance of all obligations to Owners, and in any
event shall be subordinate to all claims of Owners. Owners shall have no
obligation whatsoever to reimburse or otherwise pay Emeritus for any payments or
performance rendered under this Agreement by Emeritus.

other jurisdiction in which Emeritus does business or at its option may enforce

Facility Entity owns a Facility.

15.3 No Waiver. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy
accruing to Owners upon any breach or default of Emeritus shall impair such
rights, powers or remedies of Owners, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver

into as of March ____, 1999, by and among Emeritus Management LLC, a Washington
limited liability company, and Emeritus Properties I Inc., (collectively
"Managers" and each a "Manager"), Emeritus Corporation, a Washington Corporation
("Emeritus"), and AL Investors Development LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company ("AL Investors Development") for itself and as sole managing member on
behalf of each of the Facility Entities as set forth in Exhibit A (collectively
"Facility Entities" and each a "Facility Entity"). (AL Investors Development and
the respective Facility Entity which owns a Facility are sometimes collectively
referred to herein as "Owner" or with respect to all Facilities "Owners").
Owners desire to engage Managers to manage the Facilities as defined in Exhibit
A upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. All capitalized terms not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in Exhibit A.

1. BACKGROUND AND GENERAL TERMS

1.1 Purchase Agreements. AL Investors Development has entered into (a) a
Purchase and Sale Agreement dated of even date herewith with Meditrust Company
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Meditrust"), relating to the
purchase of the Facilities ("Purchase Agreement"), and (b) a Supplemental
Purchase Agreement In Connection With Purchase Of Facilities with Emeritus and
Emeritus Properties I, Inc., ("Supplemental Agreement") relating to certain
additional terms and conditions in connection with purchase of the Facilities
(the Purchase Agreement and the Supplemental Agreement collectively the
"Purchase Agreements"). Initially, the Facility entitled Loyalton of Phoenix is
being acquired pursuant to the Purchase Agreements by the respective Facility
Entity on or about the date of this Agreement and shall be subject to this
Agreement. Each additional Facility shall be acquired, subject to satisfaction
of the conditions in the Supplemental Agreement, and made subject to the
Purchase Agreement at Closing of that Facility. This Agreement shall be fully
effective as to the Facility entitled Loyalton of Phoenix and such additional
Facilities that may be acquired by Owners and made subject to this Agreement,
notwithstanding that all Facilities may not be acquired. All Facilities made
subject to this Agreement will each be owned by the respective Facility Entity
and managed by the Managers pursuant to this Agreement.

1.2 Master Agreement. Under the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Emeritus
Management LLC will manage all of the Facilities made


                                      -1-
<PAGE>

subject to this Agreement (except the Facility entitled Loyalton of Lakewood
shall be co-managed by Painted Post Properties, Inc. as set forth in an
Amendment to this Agreement at the time Loyalton of Lakewood is acquired by
Owners and made subject to this Agreement). Pursuant to Section 3.6, Emeritus
Properties I, Inc., an Affiliate of Emeritus, will be co-manager of all
Facilities except Loyalton of Lakewood, subject to the provisions of Section
3.6. It is intended that the terms of this Agreement shall apply to each of the
Facilities as if this Agreement were a direct agreement between each Facility
Entity and the respective Manager (and, if applicable, co-Manager) and the
operational results upon which the Management Fee (Base Management Fee and
Accrued Management Fee) and Operating Deficit and Operating Profit are
determined, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be determined
separately for each Facility. A default or Event of Default under this Agreement
with respect to any Facility shall be a default or Event of Default as to all
Facilities.

1.3 Qualifications. Owners desire to engage the Managers to manage, on behalf of
the Owners and subject to their overall supervision and control, each respective
Facility and Managers represent to AL Investors Development and the Facility
Entities that they are experienced and duly qualified under all applicable Legal
Requirements to manage assisted living facilities. By entering into this
Agreement, Owners do not delegate or intend to delegate to Managers any powers,
duties, or responsibilities which Facility Entities are prohibited by Legal
Requirements from delegating. Owners also retain such other management authority
as shall not have been expressly delegated to the Managers pursuant to this
Agreement.

1.4 Emeritus Guaranty. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement,
Emeritus is entering into a Guaranty of Management Agreement and Shortfall
Funding Agreement ("Emeritus Guaranty") in favor of the Facility Entities and
Owners guaranteeing the Managers' obligations under this Agreement and agreeing
to fund any Operating Deficit in excess of the Owner's Deficit Contribution as
more particularly defined herein and in the Emeritus Guaranty.

1.5 Consideration. In consideration of Owners' consummating the Purchase
Agreements and the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto agree to enter into and perform their respective obligations
under this Agreement.

2. TERM

2.1 The Term. The term ("Initial Term") of this Agreement shall commence on the
date hereof and as to each Facility subsequently acquired by


                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Owners pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and made subject to this Agreement
upon execution of a memorandum so indicating ("Commencement Date") and shall
expire as to all Facilities made subject to this Agreement at midnight on
December 31, 2001 (the "Termination Date"). If the Closing under the Purchase
Agreements as to any Facility does not occur for any reason, this Agreement
shall not be applicable as to such Facility and no party hereto shall have any
liability or obligation under this Agreement as to such Facility. The Initial
Term and Extension Term are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the
"Term".

2.2 Extension Term. If Emeritus fails to exercise or is not entitled to exercise
the Purchase Option as provided for in Section 13, Owners may extend this
Agreement for a period of up to twelve (12) months beyond the Termination Date
as to any or all Facilities as determined by Owner in its sole discretion
("Extension Term") by giving notice of such election (which shall include
designation of the Facilities and the applicable Extension Term) to Managers at
least ninety (90) days prior to the Termination Date. In such event, the
provisions of Section 13 of this Agreement shall not be applicable during any
Extension Term.

3. GRANT OF AUTHORITY AND OBLIGATIONS OF MANAGERS

3.1 Grant to Managers. Owners hereby grant to Managers the right to supervise
and direct the management and operation of the Facilities subject to the terms
of this Agreement and the overall supervision and control of Owners. Managers
accept such grant and agree that they will supervise and direct the management
and operation of the Facilities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
and the general supervision of Owner. Managers, subject to the terms of this
Agreement, shall have the general authority and responsibility to (i) determine
operating policy and standards of operation, maintenance, and resident care for
the Facilities except where Legal Requirements require an Owner to do so in
which event Manager and such Owner shall consult with each other to allow Owner
to determine policy and standards, (ii) supervise and direct all phases of
advertising and marketing for the Facilities, (iii) carry out all phases of the
Annual Plans and (iv) perform such other acts and things as shall be necessary
to operate the Facilities in an efficient manner which is consistent with
customary and commercially reasonable practice in the industry for comparable
facilities. Managers acknowledge the trust and confidence placed in them
pursuant to this Agreement and at all times agree to act in the best interest of
Owners in managing and operating the Facilities.

3.2 Annual Plans

3.2.1 Preparation and Approval. Not later than December 1 prior to the
commencement of each Operating Year, other than the initial Operating Year,


                                      -3-
<PAGE>

the Managers shall submit to Owners a draft of an annual budget and forecast for
the operation of each Facility subject to this Agreement for the forthcoming
Operating Year containing projections of Total Revenues and budgets of Operating
Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses, Capital Improvements, and Operating Deficit
or Operating Profit (the "Annual Plan"). Such budget and forecasts shall be in
reasonable detail and in such form as reasonably required by Owners. The Annual
Plan shall include the assumptions upon which the forecasts and budgets were
prepared, and shall include a proposed annual marketing plan and proposed
resident care and services plan and such other information as may be reasonable
and appropriate to fully advise Owners of all material facts and assumptions
relevant to an evaluation of the Annual Plan for each Facility. Managers shall
review the Annual Plan with Owners, and subject to Owners' approval of each
Annual Plan (which Owners shall endeavor to give by December 31), Manager shall
implement and operate the Facilities in accordance with such approved Annual
Plan for the successive Operating Year. When the Annual Plan is approved by
Owners, the respective Manager is authorized to incur and pay for the Operating
Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses and Capital Improvements set forth in the
Annual Plan and implement the provisions of the Annual Plan. The Annual Plan
shall be updated as of June 1 of each Operating Year if requested by Owner. The
draft Annual Plan for the first Operating Year for the Facility entitled
Loyalton of Phoenix shall be provided to Owners on or before April 30, 1999, and
such draft Annual Plan shall be approved or disapproved in accordance with this
Section 3.2.1. and Section 3.2.2. As to additional Facilities added to this
Agreement, the draft annual plan shall be provided to Owner on or before Closing
unless otherwise specified by Owners.

3.2.2 Disapproval of Plan. If an Owner declines to approve a specific item or
items of an Annual Plan for a Facility or the Facilities, the Manager shall make
appropriate revisions to the Annual Plan and resubmit the Annual Plan to the
Owner for approval. Until an Annual Plan is approved for each Operating Year,
the item or items in question will be replaced by an amount equal to such budget
item for the Operating Year prior thereto, except for Fixed Operating Expenses
over which Manager has no control and except for Capital Improvements as to
which the item or items will be replaced with $250 per Operating Year per unit
for each Facility.

3.2.3 Compliance with Annual Plan. Managers agree to use best efforts to operate
the Facilities as provided in the Annual Plan for that Facility. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Managers shall not expend more than the aggregate budget category
for each of Operating Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses and Capital
Improvements with respect to each Facility or exceed any line item in Operating
Expenses or Capital Improvements for a Facility by more than ten percent (10%)
without an Owner's prior approval. In the event actual Total

<PAGE>

Revenues shall be less than projected Total Revenues as set forth in the Annual
Plan, Managers shall use all reasonable efforts to effect a proportionate
reduction in variable Operating Expenses.

3.2.4 Group Services. Managers and their Affiliates will furnish to the
Facilities the benefits of any "Group Services" which Managers and their
Affiliates may have in effect from time to time, which phrase shall mean goods
and services provided jointly to other assisted living facilities owned or
managed by Emeritus or its Affiliates on a group or joined basis to realize
maximum economy. Group Services may include (a) bulk purchases of supplies and
services, (b) centralized purchasing service, and (c) centralized marketing
services. Each Owner shall have the option of whether and to the extent each
respective Facility shall participate in Group Services; provided that if Owner
determines that a Facility shall not participate in Group Services, then to the
extent such goods and services are reasonably required for the operation of such
Facility, Manager shall arrange for an alternative provider of such goods and
services on the most favorable terms then practicable. The costs of all Group
Services shall be allocated among the Facilities and other assisted living
facilities on an equitable basis in proportion to the benefits rendered to each
and the costs of any Group Services provided to the Facilities shall be included
in the Annual Plan if the Facilities participate in Group Services.

3.3 Personnel.

3.3.1 General. Consistent with the Annual Plan for each Facility, the respective
Manager shall hire, discharge, promote and supervise the executive staff of the
Facilities and will supervise through such executive staff the hiring,
discharging, promotion and work of all other operating and service employees of
the Facility. All members of the staff of a Facility shall be reasonably
qualified for their positions, and the Compensation payable to such persons
shall be comparable to the compensation paid to the staff of other comparable
assisted living facilities in the general area, taking into account the location
and size and targeted residents of each Facility. Manager shall have in its
employ at all times at each Facility a sufficient number of capable employees to
enable it to properly, adequately, safely and efficiently manage, operate,
maintain and account for the Facilities. Manager shall fully comply with all
applicable Legal Requirements with respect to such employees. Manager represents
that it is and will continue to be an equal opportunity employer and must
advertise as such and Manager shall not engage in any form of discrimination
from the employment or hiring as independent contractors of any personnel,
including, without limitation, discrimination as to race, color, creed,
religion, age, gender, marital status, sexual preference, national origin or
disability.

3.3.2 Managers as Employer. All executive staff members and other employees at
the Facilities shall be direct employees of the Managers or their Affiliates and
not of Owners, and all Compensation of such employees shall be paid by the
Managers as part of Operating Expenses as approved in the Annual Plan. Without
limiting the foregoing, Managers shall, for purposes of such employment
relationship, be acting as an independent contractor and not as an agent of
Owners. Owners shall not have any liability or responsibility for the work place
conditions or employees at any Facility. Managers shall ensure that all
employees required to be licensed under any Legal Requirements shall be so
licensed.

3.3.3 Labor Relations. The Managers will not become involved in any negotiations
with any labor unions or enter into any collective bargaining agreement or labor
contract resulting therefrom without the prior approval of the Owner of any
affected Facility.

respective Facility Entity, perform the following services, or cause the same to
be performed, for each Facility:

      (a) Enter into Residency Agreements in the general form approved by Owner
for each Facility and perform the services required thereunder and use diligent
efforts to enforce the provisions thereof.

      (c) In accordance with the applicable Annual Plan, enter into such
Ordinary Leases as shall be necessary or convenient for the operation of a
Facility. Major Leases, unless set forth in the applicable Annual Plan, shall

required in connection with the operation and management of the Facility. In
connection with all Permits, each Facility Entity agrees to execute and deliver
any and all applications and other documents as shall be reasonably required and
to otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Manager in applying for, obtaining
and maintaining such Permits. Provided, however, it shall be the sole
responsibility of Managers to cause each Facility and Facility Entity to obtain
and maintain all required Permits and to operate the Facility in compliance with
such Permits.

      (g) Cause to be done all such acts and things in and about a Facility as

provisions of any Mortgage to the extent such covenants and provisions relate to
the operation, management, compliance with Legal Requirements, and condition of
the Facilities, provided that Owners shall have delivered to Manager true and
correct copies of any Mortgage then in effect. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, (A) Managers acknowledge that they have been provided with a
copy of and have approved the terms and conditions of (i) the Initial Senior
Loan and (ii) the Initial Junior Loan and (B) Managers agree to cause the
Facilities at all times to be in compliance with the provisions of Sections

Agreement (as defined in the Master Loan Agreement) entered into in connection
with the Initial Senior Loan. Managers also agree to cause the Facilities to be
in compliance at all times with the provisions of the Initial Junior Loan
relating to the operation, management, compliance with Legal Requirements and

represent the Owner, Manager and the Facility on all legal questions as
reasonably necessary relating to Legal Requirements, and will institute any and
all legal actions or proceedings as shall be reasonably necessary to collect
charges or other income for the Facility, prepare or review Contracts, or to
resolve claims (except those arising under this Agreement); provided, however,
that without the


                                      -7-
<PAGE>

prior approval of Owner, Manager shall not institute any proceedings involving
claims in excess of $5,000 or to terminate any Major Contract or Major Lease.

      (k) With respect to refurbishment or renovation of any Facility or other
Capital Improvements approved by Owner, Managers shall negotiate contracts for

manner free of any Liens and in accordance with the budget approved by Owners.

      (l) Promptly notify Owners of any default by Emeritus or its Affiliates
under the warranties, representations, covenants and indemnities in the Purchase
Agreements and promptly cure any such default at its sole cost and expense (and
not as an Operating Expense).

      (m) Cause Emeritus to comply with all reporting, net worth, and liquidity
requirements of the Initial Senior Loan and the Initial Junior Loan applicable
to Emeritus.

      (n) Cause to be done all such acts and things to maintain the Facility in

3.5.3 No Change of Use. Do or permit any act or omission which would impair the

Purchase Agreements, then Managers at their sole cost and expense shall cause
all such Permits to be transferred or reissued in accordance with all Legal
Requirements in the name of the applicable Facility Entity within ninety (90)
days after the date of this Agreement (except as to the Facility entitled
Loyalton of Lakewood where such transfer shall occur, if at all, at the time
specified in an amendment to this Agreement at the time Loyalton of Lakewood is
acquired by Owners and made subject to this Agreement. Until such time, Emeritus
Properties I, Inc., as holder of the Permits (except as to the Facility entitled
Loyalton of Lakewood), shall act as co-manager hereunder in order to ensure that
each Facility has the benefit of such Permits as they may hold until transfer or
reissuance of the Permits. At such time, Emeritus Properties I, Inc. and Painted
Post Properties, Inc., if applicable, shall cease to be Managers hereunder.

      (m) such other insurance or modifications to the above insurance
requirements as Owners from time to time approve and as may from time to time be
required by applicable Legal Requirements and/or by any Mortgagee. Managers
shall be responsible to ensure that each contractor and subcontractor working at
a Facility provides evidence of general liability insurance including coverages
with amounts not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and workers' compensation
insurance in the amount required by law, and which liability insurance shall
cover the applicable Owner and Mortgagee as an additional insured.

demands which Manager receives from insurers with respect to a Facility. At
least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of any insurance policy required
hereunder, Manager shall deliver to Owner certificates and evidence of insurance
relating to all renewals and replacements thereof, together with evidence,
satisfactory to Owner, of payment of the premiums thereon. Manager shall deliver
to Owner original counterparts or copies certified by the insurance company to
be


                                      -12-
<PAGE>

true and complete copies, of all insurance policies required hereunder not later
than ten (10) days after receipt thereof by Manager.

5.1.5 Right to Place Insurance. If Manager shall fail to obtain any insurance
policy required hereunder or shall fail to deliver the certificate and evidence
of insurance relating to any such policy to Owner, or if any insurance policy
required hereunder (or any part thereof) shall expire or be cancelled or become
void or voidable by reason of any breach of any condition thereof, or if Owner
reasonably determines that such insurance coverage is unsatisfactory by reason
of the failure or impairment of the capital of any insurance company which wrote
any such policy, upon demand by Owner, Manager shall promptly but in any event
in not more than ten (10) days thereafter obtain new or additional insurance
coverage on the Facility, as provided herein. In the event Manager fails to
perform its obligations under this Section, Owner may obtain such insurance and
pay the premium or premiums therefor and be reimbursed therefor as an Operating
Expense, plus, at Manager's sole expense interest from the date advanced at the
Overdue Rate.

5.1.6 Payment of Proceeds. All insurance policies required hereunder (except for
general public liability, professional liability and workers' compensation and
employers liability insurance) shall provide that in the event of loss, injury
or damage, subject to the rights of any Mortgagee, all proceeds shall be paid
solely to Owner. Only Owner is authorized to adjust and compromise any such loss
and to collect and receive such proceeds unless Owners authorize Manager in
writing to act as Owners' authorized agent.

5.1.7 Blanket Policies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, Managers' obligations to secure and maintain the insurance provided for
herein may be brought within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or
policies of insurance carried and maintained by Managers and its Affiliates;
provided, however, that any such blanket policy shall include an agreed amount
endorsement with respect to each Facility and such other provisions so that the
coverage afforded to Owner shall not be reduced or diminished or otherwise be
different from that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other
requirements of this Agreement by reason of the use of such blanket policy of
insurance.

5.2 Waiver of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
neither Managers nor Owners shall assert against the other, and do hereby waive
with respect to each other, any claims for any losses, damages, liability or
expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred or sustained by either of them on
account of injury to persons or damage to property arising out of the ownership,
operation and maintenance of the Facilities to the extent that the same are
covered


                                      -13-
<PAGE>

by the insurance carried under this Section 5. Each party shall notify their
respective insurance carriers of such mutual waivers and shall cause their
respective insurance companies to waive in writing, by endorsement or otherwise,
subrogation against the other on account thereof and to acknowledge that such
waivers do not cause any invalidation of coverage provided by such insurance
companies.

6. INDEMNITY

6.1 Indemnification by Manager. Except with respect to the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the respective Owner or any of the other Indemnified
Parties, as to which no indemnity is provided, each Manager and Emeritus,
jointly and severally, hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless with
counsel reasonably acceptable to Owner, the respective Owner and each of the
other Indemnified Parties from and against all damages, losses, liabilities,
obligations, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and other expenses of litigation)
suffered by, or claimed or asserted against, the respective Owner or any of the
other Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly, by any Person based on,
arising out of or resulting from (a) the management of the Facility or any
business conducted therein; (b) any act, fault, omission to act or misconduct by
(i) any Manager, (ii) any Affiliate of a Manager, or (iii) any employee, agent,

Facility or any business conducted therein; and (f) any liability under Section
2.4 of the mortgage or deed of trust executed by a Facility Entity pursuant to
the terms of the Master Loan Agreement executed in connection with the Initial
Senior Loan and comparable provisions of the Initial Junior Loan except to the
extent caused by the actions of Owners. All costs and expenses of Manager
pursuant to this indemnity shall be at the sole expense of Manager except the
cost or expense shall be an Operating Expense rather than the sole expense of
Manager only under the following circumstances and only under subsections (a)
and (c) above as long as Manager was not in violation or breach of this
Agreement, not negligent, and such claim arose in the ordinary course of
business. In all other circumstances, all costs and expenses under this Section
shall be the sole cost and expense of Managers and shall not be an Operating
Expense. The indemnity


                                      -14-
<PAGE>

provided for in this Section 6.1 shall survive the expiration or sooner
termination of this Agreement.

6.2 Indemnified Parties. As used in Section 6.1, the term "Indemnified Parties"
shall mean Owners or any of them, the Facility Entities or any of them, AL II
Holdings, any Mortgagee and their respective successors, assigns, employees,
servants, agents, attorneys, officers, directors, shareholders, members,
managers, partners and owners.

6.3 Indemnification by Owners. Owners, jointly and severally, agree to

limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and other expenses of
litigation) suffered by, or claimed or asserted against, the Managers or
Emeritus, directly or indirectly, by any Person based on, arising out of or
resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Owners under this
Agreement.

7. MANAGEMENT FEES

7.1 Payment. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2, the Facility Entities
shall pay the Managers for services rendered by the Managers pursuant to this
Agreement an amount equal to seven percent (7%) of the Total Revenues from each
Facility (determined separately for each Facility) then subject to this
Agreement during the Initial Term and any Extension Term of this Agreement
("Management Fee"), which amount shall be paid on a monthly basis, based upon
the Total Revenues earned by such Facilities during the previous month, with the
first payment to be made on the 4th day of the first full month after the
Commencement Date, and continuing on the 4th day of each month thereafter until
the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement. During the Extension
Term, the Management Fee shall be 7% of Total Revenues for such Facility with no
further accrual of any portion of the Management Fee.

7.2 Limitation on Fees. The Management Fees payable to the Managers shall be
limited during the Initial Term to five percent (5%) of Total Revenues for each
Facility (determined separately for each Facility) ("Base Management Fee") until
such time that such Facility is producing an Operating Profit for three (3)
consecutive calendar months. The unpaid two percent (2%) of the Management Fee
shall be accrued without interest until an Operating Profit is achieved for
three (3) consecutive calendar months ("Accrued Management Fee"). From and after
the date that each Facility (determined separately for each Facility) produces
an Operating Profit for not less than three (3) consecutive calendar months, the
Managers shall be entitled to receive the full Management Fee and the Accrued


                                      -15-
<PAGE>

Management Fee from prior periods for such Facility to the extent Operating
Profit is available therefor. If there is an Operating Deficit for three (3)
consecutive calendar months, the Management Fee for such Facility shall be
limited to the Base Management Fee thereafter until Operating Profit is
thereafter achieved for such Facility for three (3) consecutive calendar months.
As set forth above, the computation of Base Management Fee, Accrued Management
Fee, and the conditions under which the Accrued Management Fee is payable shall
be determined separately for each Facility subject to this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any obligation of
Owners to pay any Accrued Management Fee for any Facility shall terminate
automatically at the expiration of the Initial Term if Emeritus does not timely
exercise or at such time as it is not entitled to exercise the Purchase Option
set forth in Section 13, and in any event any Accrued Management Fee shall be
paid solely out of Operating Profit for such Facility (and not out of Operating
Profit for any other Facility) and neither the Facility Entities nor AL
Investors Development shall have any liability to pay the Accrued Management Fee
during the Initial Term or upon expiration or sooner termination of this
Agreement from any other funds or by any Owner's Deficit Contribution pursuant
to Section 8.3.

8. ACCOUNTS; OPERATING DEFICIT CONTRIBUTIONS; RECORDS AND REPORTS

8.1 Bank Accounts. Manager shall establish an Agency Account and a Reserve
Account for each Facility (which may be aggregated for one or more Facilities as
Owner may reasonably specify) at a banking institution or institutions selected
by Owner after consultation with Manager, and such accounts shall be in
Manager's name, as agent for the respective Owner (collectively the "Facility
Accounts"). Manager, as agent of Owners, will deposit in the Agency Account all
monies received from the operation of the Facilities as Total Revenue and,
together with any interest earned thereon, will disburse the same from the
Agency Account for the purposes set forth in the following Section 8.2. Revenues
or funds received by Managers from the Facilities that do not constitute Total
Revenues shall be immediately paid to Owner or placed in the Agency Account as
directed by Owners. To the extent required under any Legal Requirement, deposits
received pursuant to any Residency Agreement shall be maintained in a segregated
Agency Account for such deposits, and all amounts in such segregated deposit
Agency Account shall be used only to refund deposits in accordance with
Residency Agreements and, if any such deposits are forfeited under the terms of
a Residency Agreement, for deposit into the Agency Account. All funds derived
from the deduction for the Reserve Fund described in Section 8.4 shall be placed
in the Reserve Account and shall be transferred to the Agency Account for the
purpose of disbursement as expenditures are made in accordance with the
provisions of Section 8.4. Manager shall not commingle any funds in the Facility
Accounts with Manager's or any Affiliate's other funds. Notwithstanding the
foregoing as to each


                                      -16-
<PAGE>

of the Facility Accounts, the Owner shall be designated as an additional
signatory on each of the Facility Accounts entitled to withdraw all or any of
the funds in said accounts in the event that Manager has filed a voluntary
petition or is the subject of an involuntary petition in bankruptcy, insolvency
or reorganization under the bankruptcy law or in any event if this Agreement has
expired or sooner terminated. In addition, if Emeritus does not timely exercise
or no longer has the right to exercise the Purchase Option, then Owner shall
have the right to implement a cash management system whereby amounts in the
Agency Accounts are automatically swept into accounts of the Owners on a monthly
or other regular basis specified by Owners. Managers shall reasonably cooperate
with Owners in implementing such cash management system. It is expressly agreed
and understood that all funds standing in the Facility Accounts described herein
are the sole property of the respective Owner, notwithstanding that Manager
shall have the right to withdraw funds therefrom for the purposes set forth in
this Agreement.

8.2 Expenditures. In accordance with the Annual Plan, except as otherwise
approved by Owners, Managers as agent of the Facility Entities are hereby
authorized to pay from the Agency Account for each Facility in the following
order of priority such amounts and at such times as are required to pay the
following expenditures for each Facility:

      (a) The Operating Expenses;

      (b) The Fixed Operating Expenses (exclusive of any Base, Accrued or other
Management Fee and Capital Improvements) except for such items as Owner has

      (c) The cost of Capital Improvements approved by Owner;

      (d) The Base Management Fee or if the conditions set forth in Section 7.2
have been satisfied the full Management Fee for the current period;

      (e) The Accrued Management Fee from prior periods if the conditions set
forth in Section 7.2 have been satisfied;

      (f) Any Operating Deficit Loan (as defined in Section 8.3 below), if any;

      (g) Any Cash Available for Distribution to Owner, which shall be paid over
to Owners as directed by Owners within twenty (20) days after the end of each
calendar month during the Term.

Funds in the Agency Account shall not be utilized for any other purpose.

8.3 Deficit Contributions. In the event that Total Revenue from a Facility is
insufficient, or is anticipated to be insufficient, to pay the Operating
Expenses and Fixed Operating Expenses of such Facility during any calendar month
during the Initial Term, upon twenty (20) days' written notice from the Manager,
Owners, subject to refusal or failure of the holders of the Senior Loan to fund
such amounts as provided below, shall deposit or cause to be deposited funds in
the Agency Account in advance on a monthly basis in an amount equal to the
Operating Deficit for the upcoming calendar month up to the aggregate Operating
Deficit for such Facility as set forth on Exhibit B ("Owners Deficit
Contribution"). Owner's Deficit Contribution shall be determined separately for
each Facility and Owner's obligation to fund Operating Deficits for each
Facility shall not exceed the amount for such Facility set forth on Exhibit B,
notwithstanding that Owner's Deficit Contribution as to any other Facility may
not have exceeded the maximum amount for such Facility. Manager acknowledges
that the Owner's Deficit Contribution will be funded from the proceeds of the
Senior Loan and be subject to the conditions for funding set forth therein.
Subject to Owner's approval of the draw request, which shall not unreasonably be
withheld, Manager agrees to process the draw request for the Owner's Deficit
Contribution from the Senior Lender and prepare all financial and other
information required to fund the draw request. If the Senior Lender refuses or
fails to advance all or any portion of Owner's Deficit Contribution for any
Facility, then Emeritus shall loan such amount, together with interest at the
Prime Rate, to the respective Owner ("Operating Deficit Loan"). Any outstanding
Operating Deficit Loans shall be repaid as provided in Section 8.2, from the
proceeds of the Senior Loan designated for such purpose, or, if not sooner
repaid, upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, upon expiration or sooner termination
of this Agreement, repayment and priority of any outstanding Operating Deficit
Loan shall be subordinate in all respects to repayment and priority of the
Senior Loan. Promptly after the end of such calendar month, the parties shall
reconcile the payment of Owner's Deficit Contribution based upon the actual
Operating Deficit for such month. All Operating Deficits for any Facility during
the Initial Term remaining after Owner has funded the full amount of the Owner's
Deficit Contribution, or Emeritus has loaned such amount to Owners, for such
Facility as set forth in Exhibit B, shall be funded absolutely and
unconditionally by Emeritus into the Agency Account or otherwise as directed by
Owners as and when necessary to pay, but in any event no later than ten (10)
days after written notice from Owners, all Operating Deficits for any Facility
during any calendar month during the Initial Term (which commences on the date
hereof and expires December 31, 2001), as more particularly set forth herein and
in the Emeritus Guaranty ("Emeritus Deficit Contribution"). Owners shall have no
obligations whatsoever to reimburse, bear the burden of or otherwise pay
Emeritus for any Emeritus Deficit Contribution. AL Investors Development shall
provide reasonable evidence of the availability of


                                      -18-
<PAGE>

Owner's Deficit Contribution. The obligation of Emeritus to make Emeritus
Deficit Contributions pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall survive any termination
of this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Initial Term; provided,
however, that such obligations shall not survive any termination of this
Agreement arising out of an Event of Default by Owner, and shall not survive any
partial termination of this Agreement with respect to any Facility purchased by
Daniel R. Baty pursuant to the Put and Purchase Agreement following closing
thereunder.

8.4 Reserve Account. In the event the approved Annual Plan for any Facility
provides for expenditures of less than $250 per unit in such Facility for the
applicable Operating Year for replacements of Furnishings and Equipment or
Capital Improvements, there shall be deducted from Total Revenue as part of
Fixed Operating Expenses the difference between such expenditures and $250 per
unit in such Facility for such Operating Year (or such lesser amount as Owners
may approve) funded quarterly and the cash funds so created shall be deposited
in the Reserve Account. Funds in the Reserve Account shall be utilized for the
purpose of making replacements, substitutions, and additions to Furnishings and
Equipment originally included in the Facility or Capital Improvements to the
extent approved by Owners in the Annual Plan or as directed by Owners to
maintain each Facility in good order and operating condition. Funds in the
Reserve Account shall be invested in an interest bearing account or securities
as Owners may direct and interest thereon shall be added to the Reserve Account.
Funds from the Reserve Account shall not be utilized for any other purpose.

8.5 Books and Records. Under Manager's supervision, each Facility shall keep (at
the Facility or at Emeritus' corporate headquarters) full and adequate books of
account and such other records and information as are necessary to reflect the
results of the operation of the Facility and to comply with all Legal
Requirements with respect to the Facility. Managers will keep the books and
records for each Facility in all material respects in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles except as otherwise approved by Owners. All such
records shall be and remain the exclusive property of the Owners, subject to
Manager's right to make and retain copies thereof.

8.6 Reports to Owners. Manager and Emeritus will deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to Owners the following forecasts, budgets, reports and statements
each in form reasonably acceptable to Owners:

8.6.1 Not later than December 1 the draft Annual Plan for the succeeding
Operating Year;

8.6.2 Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month, an end of
the month financial report showing the results of operation of each Facility


                                      -19-
<PAGE>

and a balance sheet for the prior month and the year to date for each Facility
and all Facilities in the aggregate prepared in accordance with GAAP and
certified as fairly representing the financial results in all material respects
by a financial officer of Emeritus;

8.6.3 Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month during the
Term, a computation for all Facilities in the aggregate and for each Facility
individually of Total Revenue, Operating Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses and
Operating Deficit or Operating Profit for the prior month, year to date, and for
Operating Profit or Operating Deficit cumulative from the Commencement Date, in
each case on a cash basis and certified as fairly representing the financial
results in all material respects by a financial officer of Emeritus;

8.6.4 As soon as practicable after each Operating Year, but in any event, within
seventy-five (75) days of the end of each Operating Year, an income statement
and balance sheet for all Facilities in the aggregate and for each Facility
individually in form reasonably acceptable to Owners as of the last day of such
Operating Year, which income statement and balance sheet shall be certified as
fairly representing the financial results in all material respects by a
financial officer of Emeritus and if requested by Owners be audited by an
independent nationally recognized accounting firm approved by Owners and such
other annual end of year financial reports as may be reasonably necessary for
each Owner and Owners to file its or their federal and state income tax returns;

8.6.5 The financial reports to be delivered to any Mortgagee as more
particularly defined in the respective Mortgage or related loan documents;

8.6.6 Within ninety (90) days after the end of each fiscal year of Emeritus,
audited financial statements of Emeritus prepared by an independent "big five"
accounting firm approved by Owners, prepared in accordance with GAAP, including
a balance sheet and an income statement for such fiscal year, certified as true
and correct in all material respects by a financial officer of Emeritus.
Emeritus shall also submit to Owners, upon its filing thereof, a copy of any
Form 10K or Form 10Q as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission;

8.6.7 Copies of all Medicare and/or Medicaid cost reports and any amendments
thereto filed with any Governmental Authority with respect to any Facility, and
all responses, audit reports and other correspondence and other documents
received with respect to such cost reports.

8.6.8 Within three (3) days of receipt, copies of any notice received from any
Governmental Authority or Third Party Payor that any Permit, Medicare


                                      -20-
<PAGE>

and/or Medicaid certification or similar item with respect to a Facility is
being downgraded, revoked or suspended or that any such action is pending or
being considered.

8.6.9 Such other reports reasonably required by Owners or any Mortgagee.

8.7 Rights to Inspection and Review. Each Owner, its accountants, attorneys,
agents and any Mortgagee shall have the right to enter upon any part of any
Facility at any time during normal business hours during the Term, and on not
less than eight (8) hours prior notice unless an emergency exists, for the
purpose of examining or inspecting the same or examining and making extracts and
copies of books and records of the Facility or for any other purpose, including
audits, which the Owner of any Facility, in its discretion, shall deem necessary
or advisable, but same shall be done with as little disruption to the business
of the Facility as practicable. Books and records of the Facility shall be kept
at the Facility and a summary thereof in such location as directed by Owners.

8.8 Deficiencies and Overpayments. If any audit or financial report discloses a
deficiency in the reporting of Total Revenues, or any overpayment in Operating
Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses or Management Fees, Managers shall forthwith
recalculate Operating Profit, Operating Deficit or Management Fees and pay to
the Owners any overpayment or otherwise, together with interest at Manager's
sole expense on the amount of deficiency or overpayment, calculated at the
Overdue Rate, from the date when such overpayment was made until the date Owners
receive return of such overpayment. If any audit conducted for Owners pursuant
to the provisions hereof discloses that the Total Revenues for any Operating
Year exceed those reported by Managers by more than five percent (5%) or that
the full Management Fee or any Accrued Management Fee was overpaid by more than
five percent (5%), the Managers at their sole expense (and not as an Operating
Expense) shall pay the reasonable cost of such audit and examination. Otherwise,
the cost of audits approved by Owners shall be an Operating Expense.

8.9 Survival. The obligations and rights of the Managers and Owners referenced
in Section 8.8 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
Agreement for a period of three (3) years.

9. TERMINATION RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

9.1 By Managers. The Managers may terminate this Agreement, except for the
provisions of Section 8.3, with respect to all (but not less than all) of the
Facilities by reason of any of the following ("Event of Default"): (i) failure
of Owners to fund an Operating Deficit in accordance with Section 8.3 within
fifteen


                                      -21-
<PAGE>

(15) days after written notice to the Owner that payment has not been paid when
due; or (ii) the Owner otherwise breaches or fails to perform a material term of
this Agreement, which breach or failure is not cured within thirty (30) days
after written notice of said breach is provided to Owner. Provided, however,
that Manager shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement without the
prior written consent of any Mortgagee. Provided, further, Manager shall have no
right to terminate this Agreement nor shall Owner be in default if such right to
terminate or such default is caused by a failure by Emeritus to fund Operating
Deficits or a default or an Event of Default committed or suffered hereunder by
Managers or Emeritus.

If Managers terminate the Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1, such
termination shall not terminate the Purchase Option under Section 13 below, and
the Purchase Option shall remain in full force and effect. If Managers terminate
this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1 and the Purchase Option is
thereafter exercised, the purchaser shall be entitled to offset and deduct from
the Purchase Price that portion of Owner's Deficit Contribution which Owners did
not fund but were required to do so in accordance with Section 8.3 and which
Managers or Emeritus funded and were not reimbursed by Owners.

9.2 Owner. The Owner may terminate this Agreement with respect to any one or all
of the Facilities by reason of any of the following (each an "Event of
Default"): (i) Managers or Emeritus fail to fund the Emeritus Deficit
Contribution under Section 8.3 within fifteen (15) days after written notice
from Owner that payment has not been paid when due; (ii) Emeritus breaches or
fails to perform any obligation, including but not limited to the warranties,
representations and indemnities, under the Emeritus Guaranty which is not cured
within the time period set forth therein; (iii) Emeritus or its Affiliates fail
to perform any obligation under the Purchase Agreements which survive closing
thereunder; (iv) Managers or any of them or Emeritus breaches or fails to
perform a material term of this Agreement as to any or all Facilities, which
breach or failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice of
said breach is provided to the Managers; (v) Daniel Baty fails to perform or
defaults under the Put and Purchase Agreement within the time period set forth
therein or fails to comply with the liquidity and reporting requirements of the
Initial Senior Loan (which is not cured within any applicable cure period set
forth therein); (vi) Emeritus fails to perform or defaults under the Licensing
Indemnity Agreement within the time period set forth therein; or (vii) either
Manager or Emeritus suffers a Bankruptcy Event. Provided, however, Owners shall
have no right to terminate this Agreement nor shall Managers be in default if
such right to terminate or such default is caused by a failure by Owner to fund
Operating Deficits to the extent provided in Section 8.3. Any such termination
pursuant to this Section 9.2 shall also constitute a termination of the Purchase
Option.


                                      -22-
<PAGE>

9.3 Curing Defaults. Except for failure to close under the Purchase Option set
forth in Section 13, or a default under Section 9.2(v), (vi), or (vii), any
default by Managers or Owner under the provisions of Section 9.1 or 9.2, except
for defaults involving the payment of money which must be cured within the
applicable cure period, shall not constitute an Event of Default if the nature
of such default will not permit it to be cured within the cure period allotted,
provided that either Managers or Owner promptly shall commence to cure such
default and shall proceed to complete the same with diligence but in no event
later than sixty (60) days after the written notice of default has been given.

9.4 Effect of Termination. The termination of this Agreement in whole or in part
under the provisions of this Section 9 shall not affect the rights of the
terminating party with respect to any damages it may have suffered as a result
of any breach of this Agreement, nor shall it affect the rights of either party
with respect to liability or claims accrued or arising out of events occurring
prior to the date of termination. Any termination of this Agreement, whether in
whole or in part, other than by reason of an Event of Default by Owner and other
than as a result of a Casualty or Condemnation as to a particular Facility,
shall automatically terminate the Purchase Option provided for in Section 13,
but any termination of this Agreement by reason of an Event of Default by Owner
shall not terminate the Purchase Option provided for in Section 13. No
termination of this Agreement for any reason under any provision hereof,
including without limitation, Section 9.1, whether in whole or in part, shall
terminate any obligation of Emeritus to fund the Emeritus Deficit Contribution
or otherwise hereunder or under the Emeritus Guaranty except only as to those
Facilities terminated from this Agreement as a result of Casualty or
Condemnation pursuant to Section 9.7.2. Upon any termination, Owner shall repay
any outstanding Operating Deficit Loan subject to prior repayment of the Senior
Loan as more particularly provided in Section 8.3.

9.5 Remedies Cumulative. The right of termination shall not be an exclusive
remedy and either party shall have the right to sue for damages or seek
equitable relief following an Event of Default. Neither the right of termination
nor the right to sue for damages nor any other remedy available to either party
hereunder shall be exclusive of any other remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity.

9.6 Transfer Upon Termination. Upon expiration or sooner termination of this
Agreement in whole or in part, except for termination upon closing under the
Purchase Option, Managers at their sole expense shall transfer or assign as
directed by Owners to the respective Facility Entity all books, records,
Facility Accounts, Permits, Contracts, Leases, any Personal Property owned by or
in the possession of Managers, all of which shall be free and clear of all Liens
(except for the Mortgage),


                                      -23-
<PAGE>

and other matters and things utilized by Manager in the operation of the
Facilities which are no longer subject to this Agreement. In such event, legal
title to any vans or buses in the name of Emeritus or Managers shall be
transferred to the respective Facility Entity free and clear of Liens at the
sole cost of Managers and for no additional consideration. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, all licensing fees and sales tax on the transfer
shall be paid by Emeritus and Managers. Upon any termination of this Agreement,
Manager shall assign and otherwise take all actions required to effectively
transfer to the Facility Entities all Permits which are required under
applicable Legal Requirements to be issued in the name of Managers. Managers
shall cooperate fully in such transfer and shall not interfere with an Owner
employing any and all employees of the Facility who desire to accept such
Owner's offer of employment. Manager's obligations hereunder and under the
Purchase Agreements and Owner's remedies for breach thereof shall survive the
expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement and the transfer and
assignment herein.

9.7 Termination of Agreement as to Individual Facilities. The parties
acknowledge that this is a master Management Agreement with respect to all of
the Facilities and this Agreement may be terminated by Owner as to a particular
Facility in one or more of the following circumstances. In such event, this
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as to the remaining Facilities
but the provisions of Section 8.3 shall nonetheless continue as to any
Facilities terminated from this Agreement except only for termination pursuant
to Sections 9.7.2 through 9.7.5 below.

9.7.1 Default. There has been an Event of Default by the Manager as to a
particular Facility and Owner has terminated this Agreement as to such Facility;

9.7.2 Casualty or Condemnation. There has been an election by Owner to terminate
this Agreement as to a particular Facility resulting from Casualty or
Condemnation which Owner has elected not to repair as provided for in Section
11; or

9.7.3 Termination During Extension Term. If Owner has elected the option for the
Extension Term, Owner may terminate this Agreement as to any Facility in its
sole discretion upon not less than sixty (60) days prior notice to the Manager;

9.7.4 Termination of Put Facilities. Upon closing of the purchase of a Put
Facility pursuant to the Put and Purchase Agreement, such Put Facility or
Facilities shall be automatically deleted from this Agreement.


                                      -24-
<PAGE>

9.7.5 Termination of Failed Facilities. Upon closing of the purchase by Emeritus
or its Affiliates of a Failed Facility pursuant to the Licensing Indemnity
Agreement, such Failed Facility or Facilities shall be automatically deleted
from this Agreement.

10. ASSIGNMENT

10.1 Assignment by Manager. Manager shall not assign, transfer or encumber this
Agreement or any right or interest herein or hereunder voluntarily or by
operation of law or in any other manner without the prior written consent of
Owners, which may be withheld in their sole discretion.

10.2 Assignment by Facility Entities. Owners may assign or transfer this
Agreement to any Affiliate or to any Mortgagee without the consent of Emeritus
or Managers. In such event, the Owner or Owners assigning this Agreement (except
as to an assignment for security purposes to any Mortgagee, but not excepting
the realization by such Mortgagee of such assignment in connection with a
foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage or the granting of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure to such Mortgagee) shall be relieved of all liability under this
Agreement accruing or arising out of facts and circumstances occurring after the
date of such assignment, except for the obligation to fund the Owner's Deficit
Contribution pursuant to Section 8.3 (which shall not apply to the holder of any
Senior Loan). In connection with any security assignment to a Mortgagee,
Managers and Emeritus shall subordinate this Agreement to the Mortgage in such
form as any Mortgagee may require.

10.3 Refinancing. With the prior consent of Managers and Emeritus, which shall
not unreasonably be withheld, the Facility Entities shall have the right to
refinance the Mortgage initially held by the Lending Group as to one or more
Facilities upon the following terms and conditions:

10.3.1 Obligations of Managers and Emeritus. If any refinancing would increase
the reasonably projected amount of the Emeritus Deficit Contribution as computed
under this Agreement with respect to the initial Mortgage over the remaining
balance of the Initial Term, then, unless Emeritus shall approve such
refinancing, Emeritus shall not be obligated to fund such increased amount of
the Emeritus Deficit Contribution to the extent resulting from such refinancing.
Any refinancing shall provide that upon closing of the Purchase Option, Emeritus
may assume the Mortgage resulting from such refinancing upon
commercially-reasonable terms including payment of the Mortgagee's assumption
expenses and an assumption fee not to exceed one-half percent (.5%) of the
indebtedness secured by the Mortgage.


                                      -25-
<PAGE>

10.3.2 Segregation of this Agreement. In connection with a refinancing, this
Agreement shall be segregated into two or more separate management agreements
with the Facilities being managed pursuant to each management agreement
corresponding to the Facilities subject to each Mortgage or Mortgages held by a
separate Mortgagee. In such event, the terms and conditions of each separate
management agreement shall be the same as this Agreement, except Total Revenues,
Operating Expenses, Fixed Operating Expenses, Operating Profit and Operating
Deficit shall be computed only with respect to the Facilities subject to each
separate management agreement. If such segregation would increase the reasonably
projected amount of the Emeritus Deficit Contribution as computed under this
Agreement with respect to the initial Mortgage, than unless Emeritus shall
approve such segregation, Emeritus shall not be obligated to fund such increased
amount of the Emeritus Deficit Contribution to the extent resulting from such
segregation. Each segregated management agreement may be assigned to the
respective Mortgagee and shall be subordinate to the respective Mortgage as
provided in Section 10.2 above. Upon such segregation, Emeritus shall execute a
restated Emeritus Guaranty or such other confirmation of the continuing
obligations under the Emeritus Guaranty.

10.3.3 Costs of Refinancing. The reasonable costs and expenses of such
refinancing, including but not limited to the Mortgagee's title review and
insurance, due diligence, loan fees, mortgage taxes (if any), loan document
preparation, legal fees, and other customary loan closing costs, together with
Owners' reasonable costs and expenses of arranging and closing such refinancing,
shall be an Operating Expense unless otherwise approved or directed by Owners in
their sole discretion.

10.3.4 Substitution of Initial Senior Loan. Owner, subject to the consent of
Managers and Emeritus, which shall not unreasonably be withheld, may substitute
a lender other than Lending Group for Facilities entitled Loyalton of
Hagerstown, Loyalton of Lakewood and Loyalton of Staunton. In such event, the
parties shall enter into a management agreement under the same terms and
conditions herein, subject to the above provisions of this Section 10.3.

10.4 Remedies. Any assignment by either party of this Agreement in violation of
the provisions of this Section 10 shall be null and void. In addition to any
other remedies available to the parties, the provisions of this Section 10 shall
be enforceable by injunctive proceeding or by a suit for specific performance.

11. CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

11.1 Casualty. If a Facility shall be damaged by a Casualty such that Owner
determines in its sole but good faith judgment that it is not feasible to


                                      -26-
<PAGE>

restore the Facility, or if for any reason insurance proceeds are not available
to effect such restoration, then Owner may terminate this Agreement as to that
Facility upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Manager, and neither
party shall have any further obligation to the other party hereunder with
respect to that Facility and this Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect as to the remaining Facilities. If this Agreement shall not be terminated
by Owner in the event of a Casualty to the Facility, then Owner with the
cooperation of Manager, or Manager if Owner so directs, shall proceed with
reasonable diligence to commence and complete the restoration of the Facility to
substantially its condition and character just prior to the occurrence of such
casualty to the extent permitted under Legal Requirements. The cost of
restoration shall not be an Operating Expense or Fixed Operating Expense except
to the extent such cost of restoration exceeds available insurance proceeds and
such costs of restoration in excess of available insurance proceeds, including
any deductibles under applicable insurance policies shall constitute an
Operating Expense.

11.2 Condemnation. If a Facility is subject to Condemnation, or such substantial
portion thereto as to make it unfeasible, in the sole but good faith judgment of
Owner, to restore and continue to operate the remaining portion of the Facility
following Condemnation, then upon the Date of Taking, this Agreement shall
terminate as to that Facility and neither party shall have any further
obligation to the other party hereunder with respect to that Facility and this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to the remaining Facilities.
If Owner elects to restore and continue to operate the remaining portion of the
Facility, then this Agreement shall not terminate as to the Facility, and Owner
with the cooperation of Manager, or Manager if Owner so directs, shall proceed
with reasonable diligence to repair any damage to the Facility, or to alter or
modify the Facility so as to render it a complete architectural unit which can
be operated as a Facility of substantially the same type and class as before.
The cost of restoration shall not be an Operating Expense or Fixed Operating
Expense except to the extent the cost of restoration exceeds the net amount of
any Award received by any Owner. In the case of any Condemnation, whether or not
this Agreement shall cease and terminate, the entire Award shall be the property
of Owner, and Manager hereby assigns to Owner all its right, title and interest
in and to any Award. Manager shall have the right, however, to claim and recover
from the condemning authority compensation for any loss which Manager may be put
for Manager's moving expenses or taking of Manager's personal property (not
including any value assigned to this Agreement), provided that such damages may
be claimed only if they are awarded separately in the Condemnation proceedings
and not out of or as part of the Award recoverable by Owner.


                                      -27-
<PAGE>

12. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS

Any program of improvements, or improvement involving an addition to a Facility
or the renovation or refurbishing of the Facility, the cost of which is not or
should not be charged to property operation and maintenance and which should be
capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, shall
be a "Capital Improvement." Capital Improvements shall be undertaken only upon
the approval of or direction by Owner in its sole discretion, which may be by
separate approval or by specific inclusion in the Annual Plan. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, Emeritus shall have the unconditional
obligation at its sole expense (and not as an Operating Expense or Fixed
Operating Expense) to complete and pay for the completion of development,
construction and equipping of each Facility as set forth in the Supplemental
Agreement. To the extent any improvements to the Facilities are to be funded
from an escrow or similar account at Closing under the Purchase Agreements or
the terms of any Mortgage ("Holdback Accounts"), such improvements shall not be
deemed Capital Improvements hereunder and the cost thereof shall not be
Operating Expenses or Fixed Operating Expenses. Managers shall expeditiously
cause the completion of all improvements to be funded by the Holdback Accounts.

13. EMERITUS' OPTION TO PURCHASE

13.1 Conditions to Option. On the conditions precedent (which conditions Owners
may waive, in their sole discretion, by notice to Emeritus at any time) that (a)
at the time of exercise of the Purchase Option, there then exists no Event of
Default under this Agreement, or the AL II Operating Management Agreement by the
Managers or Emeritus, and (b) Emeritus timely complies with the provisions of
this Section 13, and (c) the Purchase Option under the AL II Operating
Management Agreement has been exercised simultaneously by delivery of a Purchase
Option Notice (as defined therein) and (d) if a Put Notice has been delivered on
account of Section 3.1(d) or 3.1(e) of the Put and Purchase Agreement, less than
sixty (60) days has elapsed since delivery of such Put Notice, then Emeritus or
its Affiliates shall have the option to purchase all, but not less than all, of
the Facilities then subject to this Agreement including, without limitation, any
Facilities which are the subject of a segregated Management Agreement pursuant
to Section 10.3, at the price and upon the terms hereinafter set forth in this
Section 13 (the "Purchase Option").

13.2 Exercise of Option; Deposit. The Purchase Option shall permit Emeritus to
purchase the Meditrust Facilities (a) at any time during the Initial Term but
not later than the last day of the Initial Term ("Purchase Option Expiration
Date") provided that written notice of the exercise of the option is given by
Emeritus to the Owners (the "Purchase Option Notice") at least one hundred
eighty


                                      -28-
<PAGE>

(180) days prior to the Purchase Option Expiration Date. Emeritus shall have no
right to rescind the Purchase Option Notice once given. With the Purchase Option
Notice, Emeritus shall deposit with the Owners the sum of $152,600 (or such
lesser amount as shall equal two percent (2%) of Owner initial equity investment
in acquiring the Facilities) (together with the interest earned thereon, the
"Deposit") which shall constitute liquidated damages and Owners' sole remedy if
Emeritus fails to consummate the purchase of the Facilities for any reason other
than Owners' default and refusal to deliver the Deeds conveying the Facilities
upon payment of the Purchase Price, but the Deposit shall be applied to the
Purchase Price if the Purchase Option closes. Emeritus and the Owners
acknowledge that damages that would accrue from Emeritus' failure to close the
Purchase Option are difficult to determine and that the amount of liquidated
damages set forth above constitutes a good faith and reasonable estimate of the
damages that would otherwise have accrued. The Deposit shall be deposited in a
money market or similar account with a commercial bank with all interest thereon
remaining in such account and reported as income of Emeritus, and Emeritus
agrees to complete a Form W-9 and such other forms as such bank may require in
order to report such interest.

13.3 Conveyance. If the Purchase Option is exercised by Emeritus in accordance
with the terms hereof, each Facility shall be conveyed by a special warranty
deed subject to the Permitted Exceptions, Leases, Contracts and Permits (except
for the Mortgage) and all matters arising through or with the consent of
Managers or Emeritus with covenants only against acts of Owners or Persons
claiming by, through or under Owners during their period of ownership, a quit
claim bill of sale as to all Personal Property, and a quit claim assignment of
all Leases, Contracts, Permits, and funds in Facility Accounts in form
satisfactory to Owners (collectively, the "Deed") running to Emeritus or to its
designee. Transfer of all Permits to Emeritus or its Affiliate designee in
accordance with Legal Requirements shall be the sole responsibility of Emeritus.
Owners, other than an obligation to reasonably cooperate (at no material
out-of-pocket cost) in such transfer, shall have no liability or responsibility
for the adequacy or completeness of any transfer of the Permits. Owners shall
reasonably cooperate with Emeritus and its title companies in order to provide
all necessary documents, owner's affidavits (provided Owners have no liability
thereunder except for their own acts during their period of ownership) and other
evidence of authority to enable Emeritus to purchase title insurance covering
all of the Facilities at the closing under the Purchase Option.

13.4 Calculation of Purchase Price. The price to be paid by Emeritus for the
acquisition of the Facilities pursuant to this Purchase Option shall be equal to
the amount calculated as set forth on Exhibit C ("Purchase Price"). The Purchase
Price shall be a net price to be received by Owners without deduction for due
diligence, transfer taxes, title insurance or other closing costs, all of which
shall be paid by


                                      -29-

Emeritus. Owners shall not bear any closing costs or prorations of any kind or
nature, subject to any offset as provided in Section 9.1 and except for
repayment of any outstanding Operating Deficit Loan.

13.5 Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price, less the Deposit, shall be
paid by Emeritus at the Time of Closing in good funds.

13.6 Place and Time of Closing. If this Purchase Option is exercised, the
closing shall occur and the Deed for each Facility shall be delivered to Title
Company (the "Closing") pursuant to escrow closing arrangements reasonably
satisfactory to Owners and Emeritus at 12:00 o'clock noon (P.S.T.) one hundred
eighty (180) days following delivery of the Purchase Option Notice but in no
event later than the Purchase Option Expiration Date (such time, as the same may
be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, the "Time of Closing"). It is
agreed that time is of the essence of this Purchase Option.

13.7 Condition of Facilities. The Facilities and each of them shall be purchased
by Emeritus "AS IS" and "WHERE IS" as of the Time of Closing. Without limiting
the foregoing, and except as set forth in the Deed, Owners make and shall not
make representations or warranties, express or implied, with respect to, and
shall have no liability for: (i) the condition of the Facilities or any
Improvements thereon or the suitability, habitability, merchantability or
fitness of the Facilities; (ii) compliance with any Legal Requirements; (iii)
the presence of any Hazardous Substances in or about the Facilities, including
without limitation asbestos or urea-formaldehyde, or the presence of any
Hazardous Substances on or under the Land; (iv) the accuracy or completeness of
any plans and specifications, reports, or other materials provided to Emeritus;
or (v) any other matter relating to the Facilities, including, without
limitation, the title thereto or the condition, value or operating results or
prospects thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Owners
shall have no liability to Emeritus with respect to the condition of the
Facilities under common law, or under any Legal Requirements and Emeritus hereby
waives any and all claims which Emeritus has or may have against Owners with
respect to the condition, value or operating results or prospects of the
Facilities. Emeritus assumes the responsibility and risks of all defects and
conditions, including such defects and conditions, if any, that cannot be
observed by inspection or examination of records. Managers and Emeritus shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Owners from and against all claims and
liabilities arising out of or related to the Facilities as more particularly set
forth in Section 6.1 and from and against any guaranties of any Mortgages, it
being intended that Owners shall have no liability from and after the Time of
Closing with respect to the Facilities, except as set forth in the Deed.

13.8 Use of Purchase Price to Clear Title. To enable the Facility Entities to
make the conveyance as provided in this Section 13, the Facility Entities may,
at the Time of Closing, use the Purchase Price or any portion thereof to clear
the title of any Mortgage, provided that all instruments so procured are
recorded contemporaneously with the Closing or reasonable arrangements are made
for recording subsequent to the Time of Closing in accordance with customary
conveyance practices.

13.9 Emeritus' Default. If Emeritus delivers the Purchase Option Notice and
fails to timely consummate the purchase of the Facilities in accordance with the
terms hereof for any reason other than Facility Entities' default and refusal to
deliver the Deed, (a) the Purchase Option hereunder and under the AL II
Operating Management Agreement shall be deemed terminated and Emeritus shall
thereafter have no further right to purchase the Facilities pursuant to this
Section 13 or otherwise, (b) Owners shall retain the Deposit as liquidated
damages and as Owners' sole remedy in full satisfaction of any claims against
Emeritus for its failure to consummate the purchase of the Facilities, but
nothing herein shall relieve Emeritus from its obligations under the Emeritus
Guaranty, and (c) Owners shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
without further notice.

be required to be paid for the Facilities in connection with a dissolution and
liquidation of AL Investors Development and its Subsidiaries (assuming a
simultaneous closing of the Purchase Option under the AL II Operating Management
Agreement), to provide a net liquidating payment to the members of AL II
Holdings, after satisfaction in full of the Senior Loan and the Junior Loan


                                      C-1
<PAGE>

allocable to the Facilities, and payment of all reasonable costs of such assumed
dissolutions, equal to AL II Holdings' investment in AL Investors Development
plus an 18% per annum return, compounded annually (computed taking into account
periodic distributions), plus the Exit Fee as may be increased by the Emeritus
Stock Appreciation Amount. The parties hereto acknowledge such intention and
agree that the foregoing shall be construed accordingly.

For purposes hereof, the "Emeritus Stock Appreciation Amount" means (a) the Exit
Fee divided by the arithmetic average of the closing price of one share of
Emeritus common stock as reported in the Wall Street Journal for the
60-trading-day period preceding the Commencement Date plus $1, which amount is
_____________; (b) the quotient of (a) multiplied by the arithmetic average of
the closing price of one share of Emeritus common stock as reported in the Wall
Street Journal for the 20-trading-day period preceding the Time of Closing (as
defined in Section 13 of the Management Agreement); and (c) the product derived
from (b) less the Exit Fee (if such number is negative, it shall be deemed
zero). The foregoing calculation shall be appropriately adjusted for any
dilution of Emeritus common stock occurring between the Commencement Date and
the Time of Closing.

GUARANTY OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
AND SHORTFALL FUNDING AGREEMENT
(AL II - 5 Development Facilities)

This Guaranty of Management Agreement and Short Fall Funding Agreement
("Agreement") dated as of the _____ day of March, 1999, is entered into by
Emeritus Corporation, a Washington corporation ("Emeritus"), in favor of AL
Investors Development LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("AL Investors
Development"), for itself and as sole managing member on behalf of each of the
Facility Entities as set forth in Exhibit A (collectively "Facility Entities"
and each a "Facility Entity"). AL Investors Development and the respective
Facility Entity which owns a Facility are sometimes collectively referred to
herein as "Owner" or with respect to all Facilities "Owners". All capitalized
terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in Exhibit
A.

This Agreement is made with reference to the following facts:

A. AL Investors Development has entered into (a) a Purchase and Sale Agreement
dated of even date herewith with Meditrust Company LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company ("Meditrust") relating to the purchase of the Facilities
("Purchase Agreement"), and (b) a Supplemental Purchase Agreement dated of even
date herewith with Emeritus and Emeritus Properties I, Inc. ("Supplemental
Agreement") in connection with the purchase of the Facilities (the Purchase
Agreement and the Supplemental Agreement collectively the "Purchase
Agreements"). Initially, the Facility entitled Loyalton of Phoenix shall be
subject to this Agreement and each additional Facility shall be subject to this
Agreement when acquired pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and made subject to
the Management Agreement (as defined below). This Agreement shall be fully
effective as to the Facility entitled Loyalton of Phoenix and such additional
Facilities as may be acquired by Owners and made subject to this Agreement,
notwithstanding that all Facilities may not be acquired. All Facilities acquired
by Owners and made subject to this Agreement will each be owned by the
respective Facility Entity and managed by Emeritus Management LLC and their
Affiliates (the "Managers") pursuant to a Management Agreement with Option to
Purchase between Managers and Owners dated the same date of this Agreement
("Management Agreement"). Existing leases of the Facilities by an Emeritus
Affiliate from Meditrust and the existing management agreements for each of the
Facilities have been or will be terminated.

B. Under the terms and conditions of the Management Agreement, Managers have
agreed to manage all of the Facilities and perform other obligations as set
forth therein. In addition, Emeritus has agreed to fund certain Operating
Deficits of the Facilities pursuant to the Management Agreement.


                                      -1-
<PAGE>

C. Concurrently with the execution of the Management Agreement, Emeritus agreed
to enter into this Agreement in favor of Owners guaranteeing the Managers'
obligations under the Management Agreement and agreeing to fund any Operating
Deficit in excess of the Owner's Deficit Contribution as more particularly
defined herein and in the Management Agreement. Owners would not have entered
into the Purchase Agreements or the Management Agreement without execution and
delivery of this Agreement.

In consideration of the Owners entering into the Purchase Agreement and the
Management Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Emeritus agrees as follows:

1. Obligations.

1.1 Guaranteed Obligations. Emeritus hereby absolutely, unconditionally and
irrevocably guarantees to each of Owners prompt payment and performance to
Owners when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, of all indebtedness,
liabilities, and obligations of Managers to Owners of any kind or nature
whatsoever under or arising from the Management Agreement, or any modification,
supplementation or replacement thereof, or from other dealings by which any one
or more of Owners may become a creditor of Managers including but not limited to
all of the foregoing which arise or would accrue but for the filing of any
bankruptcy or other insolvency proceedings by or against any Manager (the
"Guaranteed Obligations").

1.2 Shortfall Funding Obligations. The Management Agreement provides that in the
event that Total Revenue from any Facility is insufficient to pay the Operating
Expenses and Fixed Operating Expenses of such Facility during any calendar month
during the Initial Term (which commences as defined therein and expires December
31, 2001), upon twenty (20) days' written notice from the Manager, Owners,
subject to the terms of the Senior Loan, shall deposit or cause to be deposited
funds in the Agency Account in advance on a monthly basis in an amount equal to
the Operating Deficit for the upcoming calendar month up to the aggregate
Operating Deficit for such Facility as set forth in Exhibit B hereto ("Owner's
Deficit Contribution"). The Management Agreement further provides that all
Operating Deficits for any Facility in excess of Owner's Deficit Contribution,
or as much thereof as Senior Lender has funded, shall be funded absolutely and
unconditionally by Emeritus into the Agency Account or otherwise as directed by
Owners as and when necessary to pay, but in any event no later than ten (10)
days after written notice from Owners, all Operating Deficits which accrue or
are incurred during the Initial Term as more particularly set forth herein and
in the Management Agreement ("Emeritus Deficit Contribution"). In addition to
the Guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations set forth above, the purpose of this
Agreement is to create the obligation of Emeritus, separate and independent from
the obligation set forth in the Management Agreement, to fund the Emeritus
Deficit Contribution. Emeritus


                                      -2-
<PAGE>

hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay the Emeritus
Deficit Contribution as and when the Emeritus Deficit Contribution is required
to be funded under the Management Agreement, or if the Management Agreement has
been terminated when the Emeritus Deficit Contribution would have been required
to be funded as if the Management Agreement remained in full force and effect.
(The obligations of Emeritus to pay the Emeritus Deficit Contribution and the
Guaranteed Obligations are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the
"Obligations.").

2. Consent to Modification of Obligations. Without affecting, diminishing or
otherwise impairing the liability of Emeritus hereunder and without notice to or
consent of Emeritus, Owners may from time to time grant renewals, extensions,
indulgences, releases and discharges to Managers or any other Person liable for
any of the Obligations, and may take security for payment of the Obligations,
and may release any or all security or refrain from perfecting any interest in
any security granted by Managers or any guarantor or other person or entity
liable for any of the Obligations. Owners may amend or modify the Obligations or
any document or instrument executed to evidence the Obligations and otherwise
may deal with the Managers or any other Person liable for any of the
Obligations, without notice to or consent of Emeritus, and without affecting,
diminishing, or otherwise impairing the liability of Emeritus under this
Agreement.

3. Consent to Waivers, Etc. by Owners. Owners may from time to time consent to
any action or non-action of Managers under the Management Agreement or any other
Person liable for any of the Obligations, which, in the absence of such consent,
violates or may violate the provisions of the Management Agreement or any
document or instrument otherwise executed in connection with the Obligations,
and such consent may be granted by Owners, without notice to or consent of
Emeritus and without in any manner affecting, diminishing, or impairing the
liability of Emeritus under this Agreement. No waiver, modification, extension,
forbearance, or delay on the part of the Owners with respect to the Obligations
or with respect to any document, instrument or agreement evidencing the
Obligations, securing repayment of the Obligations or otherwise executed in
connection with the Obligations, and no act or thing which might, but for this
provision of this Agreement, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge of a
surety, shall operate to release the obligations of Emeritus under this
Agreement, and no delay on the part of the Owners in exercising any of their
options, powers, or rights under this Agreement, or any partial or single
exercise thereof shall constitute a waiver of any other rights hereunder.

4. Continued Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue to be
effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of all
or any part of the Obligations is rescinded or otherwise must be returned by
Owners upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any of the Managers
all as though such payment to Owners had not been made.


                                      -3-
<PAGE>

5. Form and Powers of Managers. No change in the name, purposes, capitalization,
ownership, form or organization of Managers shall in any way affect, diminish,
or otherwise impair the liability of Emeritus. Owners shall not be obligated to
inquire into the powers of the Managers notwithstanding that any of the
Obligations may be in excess of the powers of the Managers.

6. Guaranty of Payment and Performance. This is a guaranty of payment and
performance and Owners shall not be obligated to exhaust their recourse against
the Managers, or any other Person, or any security they may have for performance
or payment of the Obligations before being entitled to payment and performance
from Emeritus of the Obligations.

7. Effect of Certain Laws. Notwithstanding the provisions of the laws of any
state, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and no invalidity,
irregularity, or unenforceability (by reason of any bankruptcy or similar law,
any other law or any order of any Governmental Authorities thereof purporting to
reduce, amend, or otherwise affect any liability or obligation of the Managers)
and no release or discharge of the Managers, or rejection of the Management
Agreement by any one or more of the Managers or any trustee, receiver or similar
official on behalf of the Managers (whether pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 365 or
otherwise), in any receivership, bankruptcy, liquidation, winding-up,
reorganization or other proceedings shall affect, diminish, or otherwise impair
or otherwise be a defense to this Agreement. If Owners are stayed by any
bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to Managers from declaring the
Obligations immediately due and payable from Managers, it may nevertheless do so
as to Emeritus.

8. No Conditions to Agreement. This Agreement is absolute and unconditional and
has been delivered free of any conditions and no representations have been made
to Emeritus affecting or limiting the liability of Emeritus under this
Agreement. This Agreement is in addition to and not in substitution for any
agreement of Emeritus in the Management Agreement, the Purchase Agreements or in
any other document or instrument executed by Emeritus agreeing to perform all or
any part of the Obligations.

9. Continuing Agreement. This is a continuing guaranty and agreement. No action
or proceeding brought or instituted under this Agreement and no recovery in
pursuance thereof shall be a bar or defense to any further action or proceeding
which may be brought under this Agreement by reason of the same or any further
default or defaults under this Agreement or in the performance and observance of
the terms, covenants, conditions, and provisions in the Obligations, or any
document, instrument or agreement evidencing the Obligations, securing repayment
of the Obligations or otherwise executed in connection with the Obligations.

10. Certain Waivers by Emeritus. Emeritus hereby waives presentment, protest,
notice, demand, notice of nonpayment or action on delinquency in respect to


                                      -4-
<PAGE>

any of the Obligations and all other suretyship defenses generally. Emeritus
waives acceptance of this Agreement. Emeritus agrees that no release, delay,
compromise, indulgence, or other action or failure to act by Owners with respect
to any other Person liable for any of the Obligations shall in any manner
affect, diminish or impair the liability of Emeritus under this Agreement.

11. Survival. This Agreement shall survive expiration or sooner termination of
the Management Agreement for the period prior to December 31, 2001. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, no termination of the Management
Agreement, whether in whole or in part, or whether by Managers, Owners, or
otherwise, shall terminate any obligation of Emeritus to fund the Emeritus
Deficit Contribution accruing or arising during the period commencing on the
date hereof and expiring December 31, 2001, except only as to Operating Deficits
with respect to a Facility terminated from the Management Agreement by reason of
Casualty or Condemnation as set forth in Section 9.7.2 of the Management
Agreement arising after such termination.

12. Subordination. Emeritus hereby subordinates any and all debts owed to
Emeritus by Managers or any other Person liable for any of the Obligations, and
any and all security for such debts, to the prior payment and performance in
full of the Obligations.

13. Joint and Several Obligation. Emeritus' obligations to Owners for payment
and performance of the Obligations shall be joint and several with the
obligations of Managers therefor.

14. Waiver of Subrogation. Emeritus waives all rights of subrogation to the
rights of Owners, and all rights of indemnity, contribution and reimbursement
against Owners, but not against Managers, but any such claim shall not be
asserted by Emeritus against Managers until after expiration of the Management
Agreement, payment and performance of all obligations to Owners, and in any
event shall be subordinate to all claims of Owners. Owners shall have no
obligation whatsoever to reimburse or otherwise pay Emeritus for any payments or
performance rendered under this Agreement by Emeritus except only to the extent
that Emeritus has funded a portion of Owner's Deficit Contribution that Owner
otherwise would be obligated to fund, but for Senior Lender's failure or refusal
to fund, and Senior Lender subsequently funds such amount.

15. Miscellaneous.

15.1 Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be deemed given:
(1) three calendar days following mailing via regular U.S. mail, return receipt
requested; or (2) one business day after deposit with a commercial courier
service which provides evidence of delivery for "next day" delivery;, or (3)

provided that a copy is sent the same business day by commercial courier as set
forth above; or (4) upon actual receipt of notice, whichever is earlier. The
parties shall promptly give written notice to each other of any change of
address or facsimile number, and notice to the addresses or facsimile numbers
stated herein shall be deemed sufficient unless written notification of a change
has been received.

15.2 Governing Law. This Agreement has been executed and delivered to Owners in
the State of Washington. Emeritus agrees that the law of the State of Washington
(exclusive of principles of conflicts of law) shall be applicable for the
purpose of construing this Agreement, determining the validity hereof and
enforcing the same. Emeritus hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the courts
of the State of Washington or to any federal court sitting in the State of
Washington. AL Investors Development or Owners may enforce any or all of the
provisions of this Agreement directly against Emeritus in the State of
Washington or any other jurisdiction in which Emeritus does business or at its
option may enforce this Agreement on behalf of any Facility Entity in the state
in which such Facility Entity owns a Facility.

15.3 No Waiver. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy
accruing to Owners upon any breach or default of Emeritus shall impair such
rights, powers or remedies of Owners, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver
of any such breach or default, or of any similar breach or default thereafter
occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a
waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring.

15.4 Assignment. Owners reserve the right to transfer or assign any or all of
their right, title and interest under this Agreement, including assignment to
any Mortgagee, and Emeritus hereby consents to any such transfer or assignment,
provided such assignee (other than any Mortgagee) assumes the Owners'
obligations under the Management Agreement accruing after the date of such
assignment.

convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of
any of the provisions of this Agreement.

be stricken therefrom, and the remainder shall not be affected.

matter hereof, but is in addition to and not in substitution for the obligations
of Emeritus under the Management Agreement. This Agreement may be amended only

Facilities. The AL II Development Management Agreement and the AL II Operating
Management Agreement are collectively referred to herein as the Management
Agreements.

2.2 Financing of the Facilities. In connection with the Purchase Agreements, AL
Investors II and AL Investors Development have each created a Facility Entity
for the purpose of taking title to each Facility pursuant to the Purchase
Agreements. The fourteen (14) Operating Facilities to be purchased by the
Facility Entities pursuant to the Purchase Agreements will close simultaneously
and be financed in part by the Initial Senior Loan/Operating Facilities and the
Initial Junior Loan. The five (5) Development Facilities may close as they are
completed and be financed in part by the Initial Senior Loan/Development
Facilities and the Initial Junior Loan.

2.3 Consideration. Obligor acknowledges that he is an officer and major
shareholder of Emeritus and as such he is directly and materially benefited by
AL II Holdings and its Affiliates entering into the Related Agreements. Obligor
acknowledges that Emeritus is the parent company of the Affiliates of Emeritus
that previously leased the Facilities from Meditrust and owned the Facilities
and is the parent company of the Managers that will manage the Facilities, and
as such, Emeritus is directly and materially benefited by AL II Holdings, AL
Investors II, AL Investors Development and the Facility Entities entering into
the Related Agreements. In consideration of AL II Holdings and its Affiliates
entering into the Related Agreements, the mutual covenants herein, and for other
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Obligor has entered into this Agreement. Obligor acknowledges and
agrees that AL II Holdings and its Affiliates would not have entered into the
Related Agreements without Obligor having executed and delivered this Agreement.

3. PUT OF FACILITIES

3.1 Exercise of Put. AL II Holdings and the applicable Facility Entities shall
have the right to require Obligor to purchase certain of the Facilities
specified by AL II Holdings and the applicable Facility Entities as provided
below and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement upon the occurrence of
any of the following events ("Triggering Events" and each a "Triggering Event"):

     (a) If Emeritus has not exercised both of the Purchase Options (as defined
in the Management Agreements) to purchase all of the Facilities on or before one
hundred eighty (180) days prior to expiration of the Initial Term of the
Management Agreements as provided for in Section 13 of the Management
Agreements.

     (b) If Emeritus timely exercises both of the Purchase Options (as defined
in the Management Agreements) to purchase all of the Facilities but


                                      -3-
<PAGE>

thereafter fails to close either or both in accordance with the terms of the
Management Agreements, time being of the essence with respect to such purchase.

     (c) If there should be an Event of Default under the terms of either or
both of the Management Agreements by Emeritus or Managers.

     (d) If Obligor has failed to satisfy the requirements of Section 3.11
below.

     (e) If there has been a Change in Control not approved in writing by AL II
Holdings and the Initial Junior Lender, which approval may be given or withheld
in their sole discretion.

Obligor shall give written notice of the occurrence of any Triggering Event to
AL II Holdings, but failure to give such notice shall not affect Obligor's
obligations under this Agreement. Upon occurrence of any one or more of the
Triggering Events, AL II Holdings may require Obligor to purchase four (4) of
the Facilities with respect to Triggering Events (a), (b), (c) and (d) and six
(6) of the Facilities with respect to Triggering Event (e), all on the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. The designation of which four (4) or six (6)
Facilities Obligor shall be obligated to purchase shall be in AL II Holdings'
sole, absolute and unfettered discretion and may be selected from the Operating
Facilities, the Development Facilities, or both. Obligor acknowledges that such
designations are likely to include those Facilities that are least desirable or
of the lowest relative value. AL II Holdings shall provide written notification
to Obligator ("Put Notice") specifying the Facilities Obligor is required to
purchase ("Put Facilities" and each a "Put Facility"), the purchase price for
each Put Facility calculated in accordance with Section 3.4, and the amount of
the Deposit required by Section 3.5. AL II Holdings may give the Put Notice to
Obligor at any time after the Triggering Event but in any event prior to sixty
(60) days after the later of: (a) AL II Holdings has acquired actual knowledge
that a Triggering Event has occurred, pursuant to written notice from Obligor or
otherwise, or (b) one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of
Initial Term of the Management Agreements. The closing on this purchase by
Obligor on the Put Facilities shall occur within ninety (90) days after the
delivery of the Put Notice to Obligor ("Put Purchase Date"). Obligor shall be
absolutely and unconditionally obligated to purchase the Put Facilities in
accordance with the Put Notice on the Put Purchase Date. In the event that
Emeritus has exercised the Purchase Option pursuant to the terms of the AL
Management Agreement, but has not exercised the Purchase Options pursuant to the
Management Agreements, then the number of Put Facilities which AL II Holdings
shall be entitled to designate pursuant to this Section shall be increased by
four (4), i.e., AL II Holdings shall be entitled to require Obligor to purchase
eight (8) of the Facilities with respect to Triggering Events (a), (b), (c) and
(d) and ten (10) of the Facilities with respect to Triggering Event (e).


                                      -4-
<PAGE>

3.2 Option in Favor of Obligor. If AL II Holdings has delivered the Put Notice
to Obligor, Obligor shall also be deemed to have an option to purchase from AL
II Holdings and the Facility Entities all, but not less than all, of the
Facilities (which includes all of the Operating Facilities and the Development
Facilities) then owned by AL II Holdings and the Facility Entities on the same
terms, conditions and purchase price set as set forth in Section 13 of the
Management Agreements (Obligor's Option"), provided that Obligor exercises
Obligor's Option by written notice and deposit given to AL II Holdings not later
than twenty (20) days after receipt of the Put Notice pursuant to Section 3.1(a)
or 3.1(b), and not later than sixty (60) days after receipt of the Put Notice
pursuant to Section 3.1(c), 3.1(d) or 3.1(e). Upon exercise of Obligor's Option
pursuant to this Section, Obligor shall nonetheless remain obligated to deliver
the full amount of the deposit set forth in Section 3.5 below, and shall
additionally be obligated to deposit the amount set forth in Section 13.2 of the
Management Agreements. Failure to give such notice and deposit within such
twenty (20) day or sixty (60) day period shall automatically terminate Obligor's
Option. Notwithstanding the Obligor's Option, the Put Notice shall remain
effective until such time that Obligor exercises the Obligor's Option to
purchase all the Facilities then owned by the AL II Holdings and the Facility
Entities and closes such purchase pursuant to Obligor's Option, except that the
time period to close the purchase of the Put Facilities shall be extended until
ten (10) days after the date on which Obligor's Option is required to close. The
terms and conditions for such purchase and the closing thereof shall be pursuant
to the provisions of Section 13 of the Management Agreements, which are
incorporated herein by this reference. If Obligor fails to close the purchase
pursuant to Obligor's Option, then Obligor shall forfeit its deposit made
pursuant to Section 13.2 of the Management Agreements, and such amount shall not
be credited against Obligor's continuing obligation to purchase the Put
Facilities. Obligor's Option under this Section 3.2 following a Put Notice shall
be subordinate to the rights of Emeritus under the Emeritus Purchase Options
pursuant to Section 13 of the Management Agreements if Emeritus timely exercises
and closes such purchase.

3.3 Title. If a Put Notice is provided to Obligor in accordance with the terms
hereof, each Put Facility shall be conveyed on the Put Purchase Date, or the
next Business Day thereafter, by a quit claim deed ("Deed") subject to all
Permitted Exceptions and other Liens, easements or matters of record (except
only for any Mortgage) and all matters arising through or with the consent of
Managers or Emeritus, a quit claim bill of sale and assignment as to all
Personal Property and a quit claim assignment of all Leases, Contracts and
Permits. The form of all such quit claim deeds and assignments shall be as
specified by AL II Holdings or Facility Entities and consistent with Legal
Requirements for conveyances in the jurisdiction in which each Put Facility is
located. Transfer of all Permits to Obligor or his designee in accordance with
Legal Requirements for each Put Facility shall be the sole responsibility and
cost of Obligor. Other than an obligation to reasonably


                                      -5-
<PAGE>

cooperate (at no material out-of-pocket cost) in such transfer, AL II Holdings
or the Facility Entities shall have no liability or responsibility for the
adequacy or completeness of any transfer of the Permits. No delay in
transferring the Permits shall delay the closing of the purchase of the Put
Facilities by Obligor except only for such necessary time required with all due
diligence to obtain reissuance or transfer of the Permits, but not beyond sixty
(60) days. If such Permits have not been reissued or transferred by such date,
then Obligor shall be deemed to be in default of his obligation to purchase the
Put Facilities and shall be liable for damages as set forth in Section 3.10.

3.4 Calculation of Purchase Price. The price to be paid by Obligor for the
acquisition of each Put Facility shall mean the amount calculated in accordance
with Exhibit B (the "Purchase Price"). AL II Holdings' calculation of the
Purchase Price shall be final, absent bad faith. The Purchase Price shall be a
net Purchase Price to be received by the respective Facility entity for each
Facility without deduction for due diligence, transfer taxes, title insurance or
other closing costs, all of which shall be paid by Obligor. Neither AL II
Holdings nor the Facility Entities shall bear any closing costs or prorations of
any kind or nature including, without limitation, with respect to real property
taxes, water or sewer charges, utilities or other operating expenses or income.

3.5 Deposit. Within seven (7) days after delivery of the Put Notice to Obligor,
Obligor shall deliver a cash deposit to AL II Holdings in an amount equal to
five percent (5%) of the aggregate Purchase Price for the Put Facilities
(together with all interest earned thereon, the "Deposit"). The Deposit shall be
deposited in a money market or similar interest-bearing account with a
commercial bank selected by AL II Holdings. The Deposit shall be credited
against the Purchase Price. Obligor expressly acknowledges that the Deposit is
not the limit of Obligor's liability and does not otherwise constitute
liquidated damages in the event of a default by Obligor in the purchase of the
Put Facilities as more fully set forth in Section 3.10 below.

3.6 Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for each Put Facility shall be
paid by Obligor at the Time of Closing in good funds.

3.7 Place and Time of Closing. If the Put Notice is given to Obligor, the
closing shall occur and the Deed for each Put Facility shall be delivered to
Title Company at 12:00 o'clock noon (P.S.T.) on the Put Purchase Date ("Time of
Closing"). It is agreed that time is of the essence with respect to all matters
relating to the purchase of the Put Facilities by Obligor pursuant to a Put
Notice. AL II Holdings, the Facility Entities and Obligor shall execute such
escrow instructions and other documents as may be customary and reasonably
requested by the Title Company in order to close the purchase of the Put
Facilities in accordance with this Agreement.


                                      -6-
<PAGE>

3.8 Condition of Put Facilities. The Put Facilities and each of them shall be
purchased by Obligor "AS IS" and "WHERE IS" as of the Time of Closing. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither AL II Holdings, AL Investors
II, AL Investors Development, nor the Facility Entities make and shall not make
any representations or warranties, express or implied, with respect to, and
shall have no liability for: (i) the condition of the Put Facilities or any
Improvements thereon or the suitability, habitability, merchantability or
fitness of the Put Facilities; (ii) compliance with any Legal Requirements;
(iii) the presence of any Hazardous Substances in or about the Put Facilities,
including without limitation asbestos or urea-formaldehyde, or the presence of
any Hazardous Substances on or under the Land associated with any Put Facility;
(iv) the accuracy or completeness of any plans and specifications, reports, or
other materials provided to Obligor; or (v) any other matter relating to the Put
Facilities, including, without limitation, the title thereto or the condition,
value or operating results or prospects thereof. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, neither AL II Holdings, AL Investors II, AL Investors
Development, nor the Facility Entities shall have any liability to Obligor with
respect to the condition, value or operating results or prospects of the Put
Facilities under common law, or under any Legal Requirements and Obligor hereby
waives any and all claims which Obligor have or may have against AL II Holdings,
AL Investors II, AL Investors Development and/or Facility Entities with respect
to the condition of the Put Facilities. Obligor assumes the responsibility and
risks of all defects and conditions, including such defects and conditions, if
any, that cannot be observed by inspection or examination of records. Obligor
shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless AL II Holdings, AL Investors II, AL
Investors Development and/or Facility Entities from and against all claims and
liabilities of any type or kind arising out of or related to the Put Facilities,
from and after the Time of Closing, it being intended that AL II Holdings, AL
Investors II, AL Investors Development and Facility Entities shall have no
liability from and after the Time of Closing with respect to the Put Facilities.

3.9 Use of Purchase Price to Clear Title. To enable the respective Facility
Entities to make the conveyance as provided in this Section 3, AL II Holdings
and the Facility Entities may, at the Time of Closing, use the Purchase Price or
any portion thereof to clear the title of any Mortgage, provided that all
instruments so procured are recorded contemporaneously with the Closing or
reasonable arrangements are made for recording subsequent to the Time of Closing
in accordance with customary conveyancing practices.

3.10 Obligor's Default. If AL II Holdings delivers the Put Notice to Obligor and
Obligor fails to consummate the purchase of the Put Facilities in accordance
with the terms hereof for any reason other than the Facility Entities' willful
and unexcused refusal to deliver the Deed and other assignments provided for
herein, AL Holdings or Facility Entities shall have the option to either (a) sue
for specific performance compelling Obligor to purchase the Put Facilities as
required by this Agreement or (b) to sue for damages which shall be measured by
the


                                      -7-
<PAGE>

difference between the aggregate Purchase Price for the Put Facilities and the
then fair market value of the Put Facilities, less the transaction costs
(including seller's share of any adjustments and prorations) anticipated to be
incurred by AL II Holdings or the Facility Entities in connection with the sale
of the Put Facilities to a third party, all as determined by AL II Holdings. AL
II Holdings determination of the fair market value shall be final, absent bad
faith or an unreasonable determination.

3.11 Net Worth Covenants of Obligor. Prior to the execution of this Agreement,
Obligor has delivered to AL II Holdings his signed statement of personal net
worth ("Net Worth Statement") dated as of December 31, 1998. Obligor agrees to
update this Net Worth Statement semi-annually and to deliver to AL II Holdings
each updated Net Worth Statement promptly following its preparation, together
with a signed letter from Obligor certifying its accuracy. In the event that (a)
the net worth of the Obligor shown on his Net Worth Statement falls below Fifty
Million Dollars ($50,000,000), or (b) Obligor fails to deliver his Net Worth
Statement as set forth above, then within thirty (30) days Obligor shall deliver
to AL II Holdings a letter of credit in the amount of Three Million Dollars
($3,000,000), in form and substance and from a financial institution meeting AL
II Holdings' reasonable satisfaction and drawable solely upon AL II Holdings'
statement that a default under this Agreement has occurred (the "Letter of
Credit"), to secure the timely performance of Obligor under this Agreement. In
no event shall the Letter of Credit constitute liquidated damages or otherwise
limit Obligor's liability hereunder. Failure to satisfy the terms of this
Section 3.11 shall be a Triggering Event as set forth in Section 3.1(d) above.

5. CONSENTS AND WAIVERS

5.1 Consent to Modification of Obligations. Without affecting, diminishing or
otherwise impairing the liability of Obligor hereunder and without notice to or
consent of Obligor, AL II Holdings, its Affiliates, and the Facility Entities
may from time to time grant renewals, extensions, indulgences, releases and
discharges to any Person liable for any obligations under the Related Agreements
(collectively, the "Obligations") and may take security for payment or
performance of such Obligations, and may release any or all security or refrain
from perfecting any interest in any security granted by any guarantor or other
Person liable for any of the Obligations. AL II Holdings, its Affiliates and the
Facility Entities, may amend or modify the Obligations or any document or
instrument executed to evidence the Obligations and otherwise may deal with any
Person liable for any of the Obligations, without notice to or consent of
Obligor, and without affecting, diminishing, or otherwise impairing the
liability of Obligor under this Agreement.


                                      -8-
<PAGE>

5.2 Consent to Waivers. AL II Holdings, its Affiliates or Facility Entities may
from time to time consent to any action or non-action of any Person liable for
any of the Obligations, which, in the absence of such consent, violates or may
violate the provisions of the Related Agreement or any other instrument
otherwise executed in connection with the Obligations, and such consent may be
granted by AL II Holdings, its Affiliates or Facility Entities, without notice
to or consent of Obligor and without in any manner affecting, diminishing, or
impairing the liability of Obligor under this Agreement. No waiver,
modification, extension, forbearance, or delay on the part of AL II Holdings,
its Affiliates or Facility Entities with respect to the Obligations or with
respect to any document, instrument or agreement evidencing such Obligations,
securing repayment of such Obligations or otherwise executed in connection with
the Obligations, and no act or thing which might, but for this provision of this
Agreement, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge of a surety, shall operate
to release the obligations of Obligor under this Agreement, and no delay on the
part of AL II Holdings, its Affiliates or Facility Entities in exercising any of
its options, powers, or rights under this Agreement, or any partial or single
exercise thereof shall constitute a waiver of any other rights hereunder.

5.3 Continued Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue to be
effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of all
or any part of the Obligations is rescinded or otherwise must be returned by AL
II Holdings, its Affiliates or Facility Entities upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy, or reorganization of the Managers, Emeritus, Obligor or any other
Person all as though such payment to AL II Holdings, its Affiliates or Facility
Entities had not been made.

5.4 Change in Form and Powers. No change in the name, purposes, capitalization,
ownership, form or organization of Managers, Emeritus, any Affiliate of
Emeritus, or any other Person shall in any way affect, diminish, or otherwise
impair the liability of Obligor under this Agreement. AL II Holdings, its
Affiliates or Facilities Entities shall not be obligated to inquire into the
powers of the Managers, Emeritus, any Affiliate of Emeritus, or any other Person
notwithstanding that any of the Obligations may be in excess of the powers of
the Managers, Emeritus, any Affiliate of Emeritus, or any other Person.

5.5 Effect of Certain Laws. Notwithstanding the provisions of the laws of any
state, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and no invalidity,
irregularity, or unenforceability (by reason of any bankruptcy or similar law,
any other law or any order of any Governmental Authorities thereof purporting to
reduce, amend, or otherwise affect any liability or obligation of the Managers
or Emeritus or any Affiliate of Emeritus) and no release or discharge of the
Managers, Emeritus, any Affiliate of Emeritus, or rejection of any of the
Related Agreements by any of the parties thereto other than AL II Holdings, its
Affiliates or Facility Entities, or any trustee, receiver or similar official on
behalf of such parties


                                      -9-
<PAGE>

(whether pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 365 or otherwise), in any receivership,
bankruptcy, liquidation, winding-up, reorganization or other proceedings shall
affect, diminish, or otherwise impair or otherwise be a defense to this
Agreement. If Emeritus or any Emeritus Affiliate is stayed by any bankruptcy or
other proceeding with respect to exercising its option to purchase the
Facilities under the Management Agreements, it shall not prevent AL II Holdings,
its Affiliates or Facility Entities from delivering a Put Notice to Obligor as a
result of the occurrence of any Triggering Event, or if the Triggering Event
would have occurred, but for the effect of the stay created by the bankruptcy or
other proceeding, and enforcing the obligations of Obligor to purchase the Put
Facilities pursuant to such Put Notice.

5.6 No Conditions to Agreement. This Agreement is absolute and unconditional and
has been delivered free of any conditions and no representations have been made
to Obligor affecting or limiting the liability of Obligor under this Agreement.
This Agreement is in addition to and not in substitution for any agreement of
Obligor, in the Related Agreements or in any other document or instrument
executed by Obligor agreeing to perform all or any part of the Obligations.

5.7 Certain Waivers by Obligor. Obligor agrees that no release, delay,
compromise, indulgence, or other action or failure to act by AL II Holdings, its
Affiliates or Facility Entities with respect to any other Person liable for any
of the Obligations shall in any manner affect, diminish or impair the liability
of Obligor under this Agreement.

5.8 Survival. This Agreement shall survive expiration or sooner termination of
any of the Related Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
no termination of any of the Related Agreements, whether in whole or in part, or
whether by any of the parties thereto, shall terminate any obligation of Obligor
to purchase the Put Facilities pursuant to a Put Notice or the Emeritus
Facilities pursuant to the Purchase Notice and the terms of this Agreement.

6. ARBITRATION

At the sole election of AL II Holdings, any claim or dispute between the
parties, under this Agreement or otherwise, shall be determined by arbitration
in Portland, Oregon under the American Arbitration Association (AAA) Commercial
Arbitration rules with Expedited Procedures in effect on the date hereof, as
modified by this Agreement. There shall be one arbitrator selected by the
parties within seven (7) days of the arbitration demand or if not, then pursuant
to the AAA rules, who shall be an attorney licensed to practice law in the State
of Washington but residing in Portland with at least fifteen (15) years
commercial law experience. Any issue about whether a claim is covered by this
Agreement shall be determined by the arbitrator. At the request of either party
made not later than thirty (30) days after the arbitration demand, the parties
agree to submit the dispute to


                                      -10-
<PAGE>

nonbinding mediation which shall not delay the arbitration hearing date. There
shall be no substantive motions or discovery, except the arbitrator shall
authorize such discovery as may be necessary to insure a fair hearing, which
shall be held within sixty (60) days of the demand; and concluded within two (2)
days. These time limits are not jurisdictional. The arbitrator shall apply
substantive law and may award injunctive relief or any other remedy available
from a judge including attorney fees and costs to the prevailing party, but
shall not have the power to award punitive damages.
