This Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties. Sunrise's actual results could differ
materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a
result of various factors, including development and construction risks,
acquisition risks, licensing risks, business conditions, competition, Sunrise's
ability to operate the Karrington properties profitably, risks of downturns in
economic conditions generally, satisfaction of closing conditions and
availability of financing for development and acquisitions. Some of these
factors are discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-K. Unless the context suggests
otherwise, references in this Form 10-K to "Sunrise" mean Sunrise Assisted
Living, Inc. and its subsidiaries and predecessor entities.
PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
GENERAL
Sunrise Assisted Living, Inc. is a provider of assisted living
services to the elderly. Sunrise was incorporated in Delaware on December 14,
1994 to combine various activities relating to the development, ownership and
operation of the Sunrise assisted living facilities held by predecessor
entities. Sunrise currently operates 148 facilities in 23 states and one in the
United Kingdom, with a resident capacity of more than 11,500 residents,
including 117 facilities owned by Sunrise or in which it has ownership
interests, 16 facilities owned by Sunrise and held for sale following the
acquisition of Karrington Health, Inc. and 15 facilities managed for third
parties. Sunrise had revenues of $255.2 million and net income of $20.2 million
in 1999. Approximately 99% of Sunrise's revenues were derived from private pay
sources.
Sunrise's growth objectives include developing new Sunrise model
assisted living facilities. Since its initial public offering in June 1996,
Sunrise has completed development of 65 such facilities with a resident capacity
of 5,776 and has 22 facilities currently under construction with a resident
capacity of approximately 1,900. Sunrise also has entered into contracts to
purchase 43 additional sites, 25 of which are zoned, and to lease one additional
site. Sunrise is pursuing additional development opportunities and also plans to
acquire additional facilities as market conditions warrant. See "--Facility
Development" and "--Facility Acquisitions."
-3-
<PAGE> 4
On May 14, 1999, Sunrise completed its acquisition of Karrington
Health, Inc. through a tax-free, stock-for-stock transaction in which it issued
2.3 million common shares in exchange for all the outstanding shares of
Karrington and Karrington became a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise. The total
transaction was valued at $85.1 million, including merger and stock issuance
costs of $8.4 million and the fair value of assumed employee stock options of
$1.5 million. Karrington operates assisted living facilities providing services
to the elderly.
The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting and accordingly, the results of operations of Karrington for the
period from May 14, 1999 are included in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, which are subject to
adjustment when additional information concerning asset and liability valuations
is finalized. The $35.1 million of costs in excess of assets acquired are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 38 years.
Sunrise intends to sell 16 Karrington operating properties, four
zoned development sites and one non-operating property, which were inconsistent
with Sunrise's product and market strategy. Most of the facilities are
Karrington Cottage prototype models, which consist of 20 units or less. These
properties are classified as assets held for sale on the accompanying balance
sheet. Sunrise anticipates completing the sale of substantially all of the
assets held for sale by the third quarter of 2000.
Due to market conditions in the areas where the assets held for sale
are located, Sunrise elected in December 1999 to adjust downward the value
assigned to certain of these assets, which resulted in an adjustment to the
original purchase price allocation of the Karrington acquisition. As a result of
the adjustment, the carrying value of assets held for sale decreased by $14.1
million from Sunrise's original estimated assigned fair value. The valuation
adjustments are reflected as a change in goodwill and the deferred tax accounts
that are associated with the Karrington acquisition.
A subsidiary of Sunrise has a syndicated revolving credit facility
for $400.0 million to be used for general corporate purposes, including the
continued construction and development of assisted living facilities. Sunrise
guarantees the repayment of all amounts outstanding under this credit facility.
The credit facility is secured by cross-collateralized first mortgages on the
real property and improvements and first liens on all other assets of the
subsidiary. Advances under the facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.50%. The
credit facility expires in July

2002. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations."
On June 6, 1997, Sunrise issued and sold $150.0 million aggregate
principal amount of 5 1/2% convertible subordinated notes due 2002. These notes
bear interest at 5 1/2% per annum payable semiannually on June 15 and December
15 of each year, and are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares
of Sunrise common stock at a conversion rate of $37.1875 per share, or 26.89
shares per $1,000 principal amount of the notes. The conversion rate is subject
to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The notes rank junior in payment to
substantially all indebtedness of Sunrise existing at the time of the issuance
of the notes and subsequently incurred by it. The notes are redeemable at the
option of Sunrise commencing June 15, 2000, at specified premiums. The holders
of the notes may require Sunrise to repurchase the notes upon a change of
control of Sunrise, as defined in the notes.
On June 5, 1996, Sunrise completed its initial public offering. On
October 31, 1996 Sunrise completed a follow-on public offering. Net proceeds to
Sunrise from these two offerings totaled approximately $196.1 million.
THE ASSISTED LIVING INDUSTRY
Sunrise believes that the assisted living industry is emerging as a
preferred alternative to meet the growing demand for a cost-effective setting in
which to care for the elderly who do not require the more intensive medical
attention provided by a skilled nursing facility but cannot live independently
due to physical or cognitive frailties. In general, assisted living represents a
combination of housing and 24-hour a day personal support services designed to
aid elderly residents with activities of daily living, such as bathing, eating,
personal hygiene, grooming and dressing. Some assisted living facilities may
also provide assistance to residents with low acuity medical needs, or may offer
higher levels of personal assistance for incontinent residents or residents with
Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia. Unlike assisted living
facilities, skilled nursing facilities provide 24-hour skilled nursing care,
supervised by a registered nurse. Sunrise believes that consumer preference and
demographic trends should allow assisted living to remain one of the fastest
growing segments of elder care.
The assisted living industry is highly fragmented and characterized
by numerous small operators. The scope of assisted living services varies
substantially from one operator to another. Many smaller assisted living
providers do not operate in purpose-built facilities, do not have professionally
trained staff, and may provide
-5-
<PAGE> 6
only limited assistance with low-level care activities. Sunrise believes that
few assisted living operators provide a comprehensive range of assisted living
services, such as Alzheimer's care and other services designed to permit
residents to "age in place" within the facility as they develop further physical
or cognitive frailties.
THE SUNRISE OPERATING PHILOSOPHY
The Sunrise approach to assisted living is a unique combination of
operating philosophy and a signature facility design. Since the first Sunrise
facility opened in 1981, Sunrise's operating philosophy has been to provide care
and services to its residents in a residential environment in a manner that:
"nurtures the spirit, protects privacy, fosters individuality, personalizes
services, enables freedom of choice, encourages independence, preserves dignity
and involves family and friends." Sunrise believes that its operating philosophy
is one of its strengths. Furthermore, in implementing its philosophy, Sunrise
continuously seeks to refine and improve the care and services it offers. The
elements of the operating philosophy focus on:
- the involvement of the resident and the resident's family in
important care giving decisions;
- Sunrise's proprietary training programs for its management,
executive directors and care managers;
- Sunrise's quality assurance programs;
- the full range of assisted living services offered by Sunrise;
and
- the architecture and purpose-built design of Sunrise's
"Victorian" model facilities.
SERVICES
Sunrise offers a full range of assisted living services based upon
individual resident needs. Upon move-in, Sunrise assesses the resident generally
with the resident's family to determine the level of care required and develops
an individualized service plan. This individual service plan includes selection
of resident accommodations and determination of the appropriate level of care.
The plan is periodically reviewed and updated by Sunrise, and communicated to
the resident and/or the resident's family. The range of services offered by
Sunrise
-6-
<PAGE> 7
includes: Basic Care, consisting of assistance with activities of daily living
and other personalized support services; Plus Care, consisting of more frequent
and intensive assistance or increased care; and Reminiscence Care, consisting of
care programs and services to help cognitively impaired residents, including
residents with Alzheimer's disease. By offering a full range of services,
Sunrise can accommodate residents with a broad range of service needs and enable
residents to remain at Sunrise as their needs change. In addition, upon move-in
Sunrise generally charges each new resident a one-time community fee ranging
from 30 to 60 days of daily net resident fees, which is generally not refundable
after the first 30 days of residence or after the number of days that the
community fee represents. Daily net resident fees are generally revised annually
whereas fees for additional care are revised more frequently based on the amount
of care needs.
The average daily resident fee, consisting of net resident fees plus
additional care fees combined, for owned facilities opened or operated by
Sunrise for at least 12 months, or that have achieved occupancy percentages of
95% or above, was approximately $97 for 1999, $86 for 1998, and $78 for 1997.
BASIC CARE
Sunrise's basic care program provided to all residents includes:
- assistance with activities of daily living, such as eating,
bathing, dressing, personal hygiene, and grooming;
- three meals per day served in a common dining room, including
two seating times per meal;
- coordination of special diets;
- 24-hour security; emergency call systems in each unit;
- transportation to stores and community services;
- assistance with coordination of physician care, physical
therapy and other medical services;
- health promotion and related programs;
- housekeeping services; and
- social and recreational activities.
-7-
<PAGE> 8
ASSISTED LIVING PLUS CARE
Through Sunrise's plus care program, residents who require more
frequent or intensive assistance or increased care or supervision are provided
extra care and supervision. Sunrise charges an additional daily fee based on
additional staff hours of care and services provided. The plus care program
allows Sunrise, through consultation with the resident, the resident's family
and the resident's personal physician, to create an individualized care and
supervision program for residents who might otherwise have to move to a more
medically intensive facility. At December 31, 1999, approximately 27% of
Sunrise's assisted living residents participated in the plus care program.
MEDICATION MANAGEMENT
Many of Sunrise's residents also require assistance with
medications. To the extent permitted by state law, the medication management
program includes the storage of medications, the distribution of medications as
directed by the resident's physician and compliance monitoring. Sunrise charges
an additional fixed daily fee for this service. At December 31, 1999,
approximately 41% of Sunrise's assisted living residents participated in the
medication management program.
REMINISCENCE CARE
Sunrise believes its reminiscence care program distinguishes it from
many other assisted living providers who do not provide such specialized care.
Sunrise's reminiscence program provides the attention, care programs and
services needed to help cognitively impaired residents, including residents with
Alzheimer's disease, maintain a higher quality of life. Specially trained staff
provide basic care and other specifically designed care and services to
cognitively impaired residents, in separate areas of facilities. Sunrise charges
each cognitively impaired resident a daily fee that includes additional staff
time per resident per day. Cognitively impaired residents who require additional
care and services pay a higher daily rate based on additional staff hours of
care and services provided. At December 31, 1999, approximately 23% of Sunrise's
assisted living residents participated in the reminiscence program.

<PAGE> 9
THE SUNRISE "VICTORIAN" MODEL FACILITY
Sunrise's signature Victorian model facility, first designed in
1985, is a freestanding, residential-style facility generally with a capacity of
65 to 110 residents. The building ranges in size from approximately 37,000 to
65,000 square feet and is built generally on sites ranging from two to five
acres. Approximately 40% of the building is devoted to common areas and
amenities, including reading rooms, family or living rooms and other areas, such
as bistros and ice cream parlors, designed to promote interaction among
residents. Sunrise has several basic building plan designs, which provide it
with flexibility in adapting the model to a particular site. The building is
usually two or three stories and of steel frame construction built to
institutional health care standards but strongly residential in appearance. The
interior layout is designed to promote a home-like environment, efficient
delivery of resident care and resident independence.
Resident units are functionally arranged to provide a
"community-within-a-community" atmosphere. The model facility may be configured
with as many as eight different types of resident units, including double
occupancy units, single units and two- and three-room suites. Sitting areas on
each floor serve as a family or living room. The ground level typically contains
a kitchen and common dining area, administrative offices, a laundry room, a
private dining room, library or living room, and bistro or ice cream parlor.
Typically, one floor or one or two wings of a facility contain resident units
and common areas, including separate dining facilities, specifically designed to
serve residents with Alzheimer's disease or other special needs.
The architectural and interior design concepts incorporate the
Sunrise operating philosophy of protecting resident privacy, enabling freedom of
choice, encouraging independence and fostering individuality in a homelike
setting. Sunrise believes its model facility meets the desire of many
individuals to move to a new residence at least as comfortable as their former
home. Sunrise believes that its residential environments also accomplish several
other objectives, including: (1) lessening the trauma of change for elderly
residents and their families; (2) achieving operational efficiencies through
proven designs; (3) facilitating resident mobility and ease of access by care
givers; and (4) differentiating Sunrise from other assisted living and long-term
care operators.

FACILITY DEVELOPMENT
Sunrise targets sites for development located in major metropolitan
areas and their surrounding suburban communities. In evaluating a prospective
market, Sunrise considers a number of factors, including:
- population;
- income and age demographics;
- target site visibility;
- probability of obtaining zoning approvals;
- estimated level of market demand; and
- the ability to maximize management resources in a specific
market by clustering its development and operating activities.
Sunrise continues to develop its Victorian model facilities in major
metropolitan markets.
Sunrise's growth objectives include developing new Sunrise model
assisted living facilities. Since its initial public offering in June 1996,
Sunrise has completed development of 65 such new model facilities with a
resident capacity of 5,776 and has 22 facilities under construction with
resident capacity of approximately 1,900. Sunrise has also entered into
contracts to purchase 43 additional sites and to lease one additional site.
These sites are located in District of Columbia, Colorado, Ohio, Louisiana,
Ontario, British Columbia, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Connecticut,
New York, Illinois, California, Missouri, Michigan and Virginia. Sunrise is
pursuing additional development opportunities as market conditions warrant.
Sunrise bases its development primarily upon its "Victorian" model facility that
it has developed and refined since the first model facility was designed in
1985. Use of a standard model allows Sunrise to control development costs,
maintain facility consistency and improve operational efficiency. Use of the
Sunrise model also creates "brand" awareness in Sunrise's markets.
The primary milestones in the development process are:
- site selection and contract signing;
- feasibility;
-21-
<PAGE> 22
- zoning, site plan approval and building permits; and
- completion of construction.
Once a market has been identified, site selection and contract
signing typically take approximately three to nine months. Zoning and site plan
approval generally take 10 to 12 months and are typically the most difficult
steps in the development process due to Sunrise's selection of sites in mature
communities which usually require site rezoning. Facility construction normally
takes 10 to 12 months. Sunrise believes its extensive development experience
gives it an advantage relative to certain of its competitors in obtaining
necessary governmental approvals and completing construction in a timely manner.
After a facility receives a certificate of occupancy, residents usually begin to
move in within one month. Since 1993, the total capitalized cost to develop,
construct and open a Sunrise model facility, including land acquisition and
construction costs, has ranged from approximately $8.5 million to $16.0 million.
The cost of any particular facility may vary considerably based on a variety of
site-specific factors.
Sunrise's development activities are coordinated by its experienced
42-person development staff, which has extensive real estate acquisition,
engineering, general construction and project management experience.
Architectural design and hands-on construction functions are contracted to
experienced outside architects and contractors.
The ability of Sunrise to achieve its development plans will depend
upon a variety of factors, many of which will be outside the control of Sunrise.
These factors include:
- obtaining zoning, land use, building, occupancy, licensing and
other required governmental permits for the construction of
new facilities without experiencing significant delays;
- completing construction of new facilities on budget and on
schedule;
- the ability to work with third-party contractors and
subcontractors who construct the facilities;
- shortages of labor or materials that could delay projects or
make them more expensive;
- adverse weather conditions that could delay projects;
-22-
<PAGE> 23
- finding suitable sites for future development activities at
acceptable prices; and
- addressing changes in laws and regulations or how existing
laws and regulations are applied.
Sunrise cannot assure that it will not experience delays in
completing facilities under construction or in development or that it will be
able to identify suitable sites at acceptable prices for future development
activities. If it fails to achieve its development plans, its growth could slow,
which would adversely impact its revenues and results of operations.
FACILITY ACQUISITIONS
Since its 1996 initial public offering, Sunrise has acquired nine
existing independent living and assisted living facilities and has completed its
planned acquisition of Karrington. See "Item 7 Management Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation."
In evaluating possible acquisitions, Sunrise considers various
factors, including:
- location, construction quality, condition and design of the
facility;
- current and projected facility cash flow;
- the ability to increase revenue, occupancy and cash flow by
providing a full range of assisted living services;
- costs of facility repositioning, including any renovations;
and
- the extent to which the acquisition will complement Sunrise's
development plans.
There can be no assurance that any acquisitions of additional
assisted living facilities will be completed. The success of Sunrise's
acquisitions will be determined by numerous factors, including Sunrise's ability
to identify suitable acquisition candidates, competition for such acquisitions,
the purchase price, the financial performance of the facilities after
acquisition and the ability of Sunrise to integrate or operate acquired
facilities. Any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on
Sunrise's business, financial condition, revenues and earnings.
-23-
<PAGE> 24
NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING AND MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH
Sunrise will need to obtain substantial additional resources to fund
its development, construction and acquisition activities. See "Item 7.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operation." Sunrise expects that the number of owned and operated facilities
will increase as it pursues its development and acquisition programs for new
assisted living facilities. This growth will place significant demands on
Sunrise's management resources. Sunrise's ability to manage its growth
effectively will require it to continue to expand its operational, financial and
management information systems and to continue to attract, train, motivate,
manage and retain key employees. If Sunrise is unable to manage its growth
effectively, its business, revenues, expenses and operating results could be
adversely affected.
MANAGED FACILITIES
Sunrise also manages for third-party owners 15 operating facilities
and one facility under construction with total resident capacity of 1,451,
including one in Georgia, three in Maryland, four in Massachusetts, one in
Nebraska, two in New Jersey, one in Pennsylvania and three in Virginia. The
facilities in Georgia, Maryland, and New Jersey and one facility in
Massachusetts are Sunrise model facilities. The management contract expiration
dates range from June 2001 to September 2013. Sunrise owns $5.8 million carrying
value of tax exempt mortgage bonds on the Pennsylvania facility. Under the
management agreement for one of the New Jersey facilities, Sunrise has a right
of first refusal to purchase the facility if the owner receives a bona fide
offer to purchase the facility during the term of the management agreement.
Sunrise does not provide financial or accounting services to one of the Virginia
facilities. On December 31, 1999, Sunrise's management contract with a facility
in Massachusetts ended. Sunrise received management fees of approximately $0.3
million in 1999 for this facility.
Sunrise also managed two skilled nursing facilities, Pembrook and
Prospect Park, located in West Chester and Prospect Park, Pennsylvania,
respectively. The management contracts for these facilities ended on December
31, 1999. Sunrise received management fee revenues of approximately $0.2 million
in 1999 for these two facilities.

COMPANY OPERATIONS
OPERATING STRUCTURE
Sunrise has centralized accounting, finance and other operational
functions at the corporate headquarters and regional office levels in order to
allow facility-based personnel to focus on resident care, consistent with
Sunrise's operating philosophy. Sunrise maintains its corporate headquarters
office in McLean, Virginia and a business office in Fairfax, Virginia. The
business office comprises mainly accounting and information technology staff.
Corporate staff members are responsible for: the establishment of Company-wide
policies and procedures relating to resident care, facility design and facility
operations; billing and collection; accounts payable; finance and accounting;
management of Sunrise's development and acquisition activities; development of
employee training materials and programs; and providing overall strategic
direction to Sunrise. Regional staff are responsible for: overseeing all aspects
of facility-based operations, including marketing and sales activities; resident
care; the hiring of facility executives, care managers and other facility-based
personnel; compliance with applicable local and state regulatory requirements;
and implementation of Sunrise's development and acquisition plans within a given
geographic region.
Sunrise is currently organized into five large geographic regions:
Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Midwest and west, with multiple cluster
regions under each. Sunrise has regional offices in Boston, MA, Long Island, NY,
Paramus, NJ, Villanova, PA, Atlanta, GA, Chicago, IL, Columbus, OH, Claremont,
CA, and Concord, CA that support the currently opened and/or to be opened
properties in these markets. Each of the regions is headed by either a vice
president or director of operations with extensive experience in the senior
housing, health care and assisted living industries. Each regional cluster is
supported typically by a sales/marketing specialist, a resident care specialist,
a human resources specialist and a dining services specialist. Sunrise expects
that all regional clusters will create similar staff positions as the number of
facilities in those regions increases.
FACILITY STAFFING
Each of Sunrise's facilities has an executive director responsible
for the day-to-day operations of the facility, including: quality of care;
resident services; sales and marketing; and financial performance. Each
executive director receives specialized training from Sunrise. Sunrise believes
that the quality and size of its facilities, coupled with its competitive
compensation philosophy, have enabled it to attract high-quality, professional
executive directors. The executive director is
-25-
<PAGE> 26
supported by (a) the department heads, who oversee the care and service of the
facility's assisted living neighborhood and Alzheimer neighborhood, (b) a nurse,
who serves as a case manager responsible for coordinating the services necessary
to meet the health care needs of our residents and (c) the director of community
relations, who is responsible for selling Sunrise services. Other key positions
include the dining services coordinator, the program coordinator and, in some
homes, the director of Alzheimer's care.
Care managers, who work on full-time, part-time and flex-time schedules,
provide most of the hands-on resident care, such as bathing, dressing and other
personalized care services, including housekeeping, meal service and resident
activities. As permitted by state law, nurses or care managers who complete a
special training program supervise the storage and distribution of medications.
The use of care managers to provide substantially all services to residents has
the benefits of consistency and continuity in resident care. In most cases, the
same care manager assists the resident in dressing, dining and coordinating
daily activities. The number of care managers working in a facility varies
according to the level of care required by the residents of the facility and the
numbers of residents receiving Alzheimer's care and plus care services. The
number of care managers ranges from three (Leesburg facility) to 20 (Atrium
facility) on the day shifts and from two care managers (Leesburg) to seven care
managers (Atrium) on the night shift.
Sunrise believes that its facilities can be most efficiently managed
by maximizing direct resident and staff contact. Employees involved in resident
care, including the administrative staff, are trained in the care manager duties
and participate in supporting the care needs of the residents. Accounting
functions are centralized so that administrative staff may devote substantially
all of their time to care giving.
STAFF EDUCATION AND TRAINING
Sunrise has attracted, and continues to seek, highly dedicated,
experienced personnel. Sunrise has developed a formal training program, the
"five star training program," which focuses on providing every employee with the
appropriate skills that are required to ensure the highest quality of resident
care. All managers and direct care staff must complete a comprehensive
orientation and the core curriculum, which consists of basic resident care
procedures, Alzheimer's care, communication systems, and activities and dining
programming. For the supervisors of direct care staff, additional program levels
provide education in medical awareness and management skills.
-26-
<PAGE> 27
For department managers, Sunrise has developed the "mentor program,"
which partners each new manager with an experienced, successful manager. Under
this program, new managers typically receive several weeks of training including
classroom, on the job and corporate orientation. Thereafter, the mentor
maintains regular contact with the new manager to provide ongoing support and
guidance. Region-based classroom training also is provided monthly for
department managers in specialized areas, including Sunrise's "reminiscence
program," the social and volunteer programs, human resources, staffing and
scheduling and medication management.
Sunrise also has developed the "executive director in training program,"
which offers a structured curriculum to train individuals to become executive
directors at Sunrise. This program recruits successful, strong leaders from both
Sunrise department head ranks as well as professionals from outside Sunrise and
provides them with an accelerated training curriculum to prepare them to be
Sunrise executive directors.
QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROCESSES
Sunrise coordinates quality assurance programs at each of its
facilities through its corporate headquarters staff and through its regional
offices. Sunrise's commitment to quality assurance is designed to achieve a high
degree of resident and family member satisfaction with the care and services
provided by Sunrise. In addition to ongoing training and performance reviews of
care managers and other employees, Sunrise's quality control measures include:
Family and Resident Feedback. Sunrise surveys residents and family
members on a regular basis to monitor the quality of services provided to
residents. Semi-annual and annual written surveys are used to appraise and
monitor the level of satisfaction of residents and their families. A toll-free
telephone line also is maintained which may be used at any time by a resident's
family members to convey comments.
Regular Facility Inspections. Facility inspections are conducted by
vice presidents and other regional staff on a regular basis. These inspections
cover: the appearance of the exterior and grounds; the appearance and
cleanliness of the interior; the professionalism and friendliness of staff;
resident care plans; the quality of activities and the dining program;
observance of residents in their daily living activities; and compliance with
government regulations.
-27-
<PAGE> 28
Third-Party Reviews. To further evaluate customer service, Sunrise
engages an independent service evaluation company to "mystery shop" Sunrise's
facilities. These professionals assess Sunrise's performance from the
perspective of a customer, without the inherent biases of a company employee.
Each facility is "shopped" at least three times per year in person, as well as
one or more times per month by telephone. To evaluate medication management,
third-party pharmacists conduct periodic reviews of on-site handling and storage
of medications, record-keeping and coordination of medications.
SALES AND MARKETING
Sunrise's sales and marketing strategy is intended to create
awareness which reflect in visits to Sunrise and its services among potential
residents and their family members and referral sources, such as hospital
discharge planners, physicians, clergy, area agencies for the elderly, skilled
nursing facilities, home health agencies and social workers resulting in
personal visits to the property. A central marketing staff develops overall
strategies for systems and programs promoting Sunrise throughout its markets and
monitors the success of Sunrise's marketing efforts. Each regional cluster
generally has at least one sales and marketing specialist and each property has
at least one sales and marketing director of community relations who is
responsible for implementing sales and marketing programs. In addition to direct
contacts with prospective referral sources, Sunrise also relies on print and
yellow page advertising, direct mail, signage, the internet, and open houses and
special events, such as grand openings for new facilities, health fairs and
various community receptions.
THIRD-PARTY RESIDENT, MANAGEMENT AND DEVELOPMENT SERVICES
While Sunrise serves the vast majority of a resident's needs with
its own staff, some services, such as physician care, infusion therapy, physical
and speech therapy and other home health care services, may be provided to
residents at Sunrise facilities by third parties. Company staff assist residents
in locating qualified providers for such health care services. In October 1996,
Sunrise entered into an affiliation agreement with Jefferson Health System, an
integrated health care system located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Under this
agreement, Jefferson Health System provides residents of Sunrise facilities
located in the Philadelphia metropolitan region, on a preferred but
non-exclusive basis, with access to various health care services offered by
Jefferson Health System. These health care services may include hospital
services, physician services, rehabilitation services, home health services and
products and mental health services.
-28-
<PAGE> 29
Sunrise continues to capitalize on its brand awareness by accepting
third-party management and development contracts. Sunrise previously entered
into an agreement with Inova Health System Services, Inc., the largest
not-for-profit integrated health care system in the Washington, D.C.
metropolitan area, to manage Inova's two assisted living communities and provide
development and management services for an additional four to eight assisted
living communities with a total resident capacity of up to 800.
Sunrise has also entered into unconsolidated joint venture arrangements
with third parties to develop up to 45 projects in the United States, United
Kingdom and Canada. The joint ventures have acquired or assumed purchase
contracts for 32 properties, 23 in the United States, two in the United Kingdom
and seven in Canada, on which the joint ventures intend to develop assisted
living facilities. Sunrise is providing management and development services to
the joint ventures on a contract-fee basis with rights to acquire the assets in
the future. Sunrise has ownership interests in these joint ventures ranging from
9% to 15%.
Sunrise is continuing its previously-announced plan of selling selected
real estate assets, subject to market conditions, as a normal part of its
operations while retaining long-term management through operating agreements, to
include the potential sale of approximately 20 properties each year. This
strategy of selling selected real estate assets as a normal part of operations
should enable Sunrise to reduce debt, redeploy its capital into new development
projects and realize gains on appreciated real estate. To date, Sunrise has
completed the sale of four facilities. Sunrise continues to operate the
facilities under long-term operating agreements.
COMPETITION
The long-term care industry is highly competitive and the assisted
living segment is becoming increasingly competitive. Sunrise competes with
numerous other companies that provide similar long-term care alternatives, such
as home health care agencies, facility-based service programs, retirement
communities, convalescent centers and other assisted living providers. Although
some competitors are significantly larger, there are no one or more dominant
companies in the assisted living segment. In general, regulatory and other
barriers to competitive entry in the assisted living industry are not
substantial. In pursuing its growth strategies, Sunrise has experienced and
expects to continue to experience increased competition in their efforts to
develop and acquire assisted living facilities. Some of the present and
potential competitors of Sunrise are significantly larger and have, or may
obtain, greater financial resources than Sunrise. Consequently, Sunrise cannot
assure that it will not encounter increased
-29-
<PAGE> 30
competition that could limit its ability to attract residents or expand its
business, which could have a material adverse effect on its revenues and
earnings.
OVERBUILDING IN THE ASSISTED LIVING INDUSTRY
Sunrise believes that some assisted living markets have become or
are on the verge of becoming overbuilt. As described above, regulation and other
barriers to entry into the assisted living industry are not substantial.
Consequently, the development of new assisted living facilities could outpace
demand. Overbuilding in Sunrise market areas could, therefore, cause Sunrise to
experience decreased occupancy, depressed margins or lower operating results.
STAFFING AND LABOR COSTS
Sunrise competes with various health care services providers,
including other elderly care providers, in attracting and retaining qualified
and skilled personnel. A shortage of nurses or other trained personnel or
general inflationary pressures may require that Sunrise enhance its pay and
benefits package to compete effectively for such personnel. If there is an
increase in these costs or if Sunrise fails to attract and retain qualified and
skilled personnel, the business and financial results of Sunrise could be
adversely affected.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
Assisted living facilities and services are subject to regulation
and licensing by state and local health and social service agencies and other
regulatory authorities. Although requirements vary from state to state, in
general, these requirements address:
- personnel education, training, and records;
- facility services, including:
-- administration of medication,
-- assistance with self-administration of medication and
-- limited nursing services;
- monitoring of resident wellness;
- physical plant specifications;
-30-
<PAGE> 31
- furnishing of resident units;
- food and housekeeping services;
- emergency evacuation plans; and
- resident rights and responsibilities, including in some states
the right to receive health care services from providers of a
resident's choice.
Some facilities are also licensed to provide independent living
services, which generally involve lower levels of resident assistance. In some
states, assisted living services are provided to residents through licensed
home-healthcare agencies which are subject to additional regulations. Sunrise
operates several licensed home-healthcare agencies. In several of the states in
which Sunrise operates or intends to operate, assisted living facilities also
require a certificate of need before the facility can be opened. In most states,
assisted living facilities and services also are subject to state or local
building code, fire code and food service licensing or certification
requirements. Like other health care facilities, assisted living facilities and
services are subject to periodic survey or inspection by governmental
authorities.
From time to time in the ordinary course of business, Sunrise
receives deficiency reports, which it reviews to take appropriate corrective
action. Although most inspection deficiencies are resolved through a plan of
correction, the reviewing agency typically is authorized to take action against
a licensed facility or home healthcare agency where deficiencies are noted in
the inspection process. This action may include imposition of fines, imposition
of a provisional or conditional license or suspension or revocation of a license
or other sanctions. If Sunrise fails to comply with applicable requirements, its
business and revenues could be materially and adversely affected. To date, none
of the deficiency reports received by Sunrise has resulted in a suspension, fine
or other disposition that has had a material adverse effect on its revenues.
Regulation of the assisted living industry is evolving. Sunrise's
operations could suffer if future regulatory developments, such as mandatory
increases in scope and quality of care given to residents, are enacted and
licensing and certification standards are revised. For example, if more states
seek and obtain Medicaid waivers to authorize reimbursement for assisted living,
the prospect of some federal regulation may become more likely. If the
regulatory requirements increase, the costs of complying with those requirements
could increase as well.
-31-
<PAGE> 32
Sunrise also is subject to federal and state anti-remuneration laws,
such as the federal health care program anti-kickback law which governs various
types of financial arrangements among health care providers and others who may
be in a position to refer or recommend patients to these providers. This law
prohibits direct and indirect payments that are intended to induce the referral
of patients to, the arranging of services by, or the recommending of, a
particular provider of health care items or services. The federal health care
program anti-kickback law has been interpreted to apply to some contractual
relationships between health care providers and sources of patient referral.
Similar state laws vary from state to state, are sometimes vague and have rarely
been interpreted by courts or regulatory agencies. Violation of these laws can
result in loss of licensure, civil or criminal penalties and exclusion of health
care providers or suppliers from furnishing covered items or services to
beneficiaries of the federal health care program. Sunrise cannot be sure that
these laws will be interpreted consistently with its practices.
ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws,
ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real
property may be held liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous
or toxic substances, including asbestos-containing materials, that could be
located on, in or under a property. These laws and regulations often impose
liability without regard to whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was
responsible for, the presence or release of the hazardous or toxic substances.
The costs of any required remediation or removal of these substances could be
substantial. In addition, the liability of an owner or operator is generally not
limited and could exceed the property's value and the aggregate assets of the
owner or operator. An owner or operator or an entity that arranges for the
disposal of hazardous or toxic substances at a disposal site also may be liable
for the costs of any required remediation or removal of hazardous or toxic
substances.
Sunrise engages consultants to conduct Phase I environmental studies
of development sites that are placed under contract. If the Phase I study
indicates the existence of hazardous or toxic substances on the property, a
Phase II study is requested and performed. The Phase I and Phase II reports, as
applicable, may not reveal all environmental liabilities. There could be,
therefore, material environmental liabilities of which Sunrise is unaware. In
connection with the ownership or operation of its properties, Sunrise could be
liable for the costs of remediation or removal of hazardous or toxic substances.
Sunrise also could be
-32-
<PAGE> 33
liable for other costs, including governmental fines and damages for injuries to
persons or properties. As a result, the presence, with or without Sunrise's
knowledge, of hazardous or toxic substances at any property owned or operated by
it, or acquired or operated by it in the future, could have an adverse effect on
Sunrise's financial condition or earnings.
MEDICAL WASTE
Some of Sunrise's facilities generate infectious waste due to the
illness or physical condition of the residents, including, for example, blood
soaked bandages, swabs and other medical waste products and incontinence
products of those residents diagnosed with an infectious disease. The management
of infectious medical waste, including handling, storage, transportation,
treatment and disposal, is subject to regulation under various laws, including
federal and state liability laws. These environmental laws set forth the
management requirements, as well as permit, record keeping, notice and reporting
obligations. Each of Sunrise's facilities has an agreement with a waste
management company for the proper disposal of all infectious medical waste. Any
finding that Sunrise is not in compliance with these environmental laws could
adversely affect its business operations and financial condition. Because these
environmental laws are amended from time to time, Sunrise cannot predict when
and to what extent liability may arise. In addition, because these environmental
laws vary from state to state, expansion of Sunrise's operations to states where
Sunrise does not currently operate may subject Sunrise to additional
restrictions on the manner in which it operates its facilities.
-33-
<PAGE> 34
LIABILITY AND INSURANCE
The assisted living business entails an inherent risk of liability.
In recent years, Sunrise, as well as other participants in the assisted living
industry, have become subject to an increasing number of lawsuits alleging
negligence or related legal theories, many of which involve large claims and
significant legal costs. Sunrise maintains insurance policies in amounts and
with the coverage and deductibles it believes are adequate, based on the nature
and risks of our business, historical experience and industry standards. The
insurance currently maintained by Sunrise has the following coverage limits:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Type of Coverage Coverage Limits Examples of Incidents
- ---------------- --------------- Covered
-------
<S> <C> <C>
- - General liability - $1,000,000 per occurrence/per facility, - premises claims by third parties,

- fire damage to other rented locations
- - Health care professional liability - $1,000,000 per occurrence/$3,000,000 - negligence claims by residents

coverage limits do not overlap with or management company subsidiaries by
general liability, medical liability or third parties for whom Sunrise
umbrella excess liability limits develops or manages properties
</TABLE>
Sunrise cannot be sure that claims will not arise that are in excess
of its coverage or not covered by its policies. If a successful claim against
Sunrise is made and it is not covered by insurance or exceeds the policy limits,
Sunrise's financial condition and results of operations could be materially and
adversely affected. Claims against Sunrise, regardless of their merit or
eventual outcome, could also have a material adverse effect on its ability to
attract residents or expand its business and could require Sunrise's management
to devote time to matters unrelated to the operation of its business. Sunrise
also has to renew its policies every year and it cannot be sure that it will be
able to continue to obtain liability insurance coverage on acceptable terms.
EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 1999, Sunrise had 7,060 employees, including 4,123
full-time employees, of which 232 were employed at Sunrise's headquarters and
business office. Sunrise believes employee relations are good.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
Sunrise leases its corporate and business offices, regional
operations and development offices, and warehouse space under various leases.
The leases have terms of five to twelve years. The corporate headquarters lease
commenced upon completion of the building in July 1999 and expires in July 2011.
The lease has an initial annual base rent of $1.2 million. The base rent
escalates approximately 2.5% per year in accordance with a base rent schedule.
The initial annual lease payments of the business office leases amount to
$462,000, and the base rent is subject to annual increases based on the consumer
price index from a minimum of 2% to a maximum cap of 3% per year. The initial
annual base rent payments under the warehouse lease amount to $148,000, subject
to annual increases of 3%. Various other leases expire during 2001 and 2003.
-35-
<PAGE> 36
Sunrise has also entered into operating leases for eleven facilities
and five long-term ground leases related to other facilities. The operating
lease terms vary from 15 years, with two ten-year extension options, to 20 years
and ground leases have terms of 30 to 99 years. For information regarding
facilities owned by Sunrise or in which it holds interests, see " Item 1.
Business - Owned Facilities" and "Facility Development."
In December 1998, a subsidiary of Sunrise entered into a three year
operating lease for six assisted living facilities. Sunrise has guaranteed the
payment of all obligations of its subsidiary under the lease. There are no
extension options. However, Sunrise has the option, 120 days prior to the
expiration date of the lease, of either purchasing or selling all the leased
properties. If Sunrise exercises its option to sell the properties and the
proceeds from the sale exceed the obligation under the lease, Sunrise is
entitled to the to excess. However, if the proceeds from the sale are less than
the obligation under the lease, Sunrise is obligated to fund the difference.
Sunrise is responsible for the payment of real estate taxes, insurance and other
operating expenses. The lease requires Sunrise to maintain specified coverage
ratios, liquidity and net worth. These six leased properties were sublet to
Karrington until the acquisition of Karrington in May 1999.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
Sunrise is involved in various lawsuits and claims arising in the
normal course of business. In the opinion of management of Sunrise, although the
outcomes of these suits and claims are uncertain, in the aggregate they should
not have a material adverse effect on Sunrise's business, financial condition
and results of operations.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
Not applicable.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
Sunrise's common stock is traded on the Nasdaq National Market under
the symbol "SNRZ." Trading of the common stock commenced May 31, 1996. As of
March 17, 2000, there were 282 stockholders of record. No cash dividends have
been paid in the past, and none are expected to be paid in the foreseeable
future.

(1) On May 14, 1999, Sunrise completed its acquisition of Karrington Health,
Inc. through a tax-free, stock-for-stock transaction in which it issued
2.3 million common shares in exchange for all outstanding shares of
Karrington and Karrington became a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise. The
total transaction was valued at $85.1 milion and was accounted for using
the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the results of
operations of Karrington since the acquisition are included in Sunrise's
financial information for 1999. See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.
(2) Net income for 1999 includes non-recurring charges of $5.1 million ($4.0

Condition and Results of Operations.
(3) Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization is
presented because Sunrise believes this data is used by some investors to
evaluate Sunrise's ability to meet debt service requirements. Sunrise
considers earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
to be an indicative measure of its operating performance due to the
significance of Sunrise's long-lived assets and because this data can be
used to measure Sunrise's ability to service debt, fund capital
expenditures and expand its business. However, this data should not be
considered as an alternative to net income, operating profit, cash flows
from operations or any other operating or liquidity performance measure
prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles. In addition,
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization as
calculated by Sunrise may not be comparable to similarly titled measures
reported by other companies. Interest expense, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, which are not reflected in the presentation of earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, have been, and will
be incurred by Sunrise. Investors are cautioned that these excluded items
are significant components in understanding and assessing Sunrise's
financial performance.
(4) Based on monthly occupancy for owned facilities, opened or operated for at

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
information contained in the Consolidated Financial Statements, including the
related notes thereto, and the other financial information appearing elsewhere
herein. This Management's Discussion and Analysis contains certain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Sunrise's
actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these
forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including development
and construction risks, acquisition risks, licensing risks, business conditions,
competition, Sunrise's ability to operate the Karrington properties profitably,
risks of downturns in economic conditions generally, satisfaction of closing
conditions and availability of financing for development and acquisitions. Some
of these factors are discussed elsewhere herein. Unless the context suggests
otherwise, references herein to "Sunrise" mean Sunrise Assisted Living, Inc. and
its subsidiaries.
OVERVIEW
Sunrise is a provider of assisted living services for seniors.
Sunrise currently operates 148 facilities in 23 states and in the United
Kingdom, with a resident capacity of more than 11,500 residents, including 117
facilities owned by Sunrise or in which it has ownership interests, 16
facilities owned by Sunrise and held for sale following the acquisition of
Karrington Health, Inc. and 15 facilities managed for third parties. Sunrise
provides assistance with the activities of daily living and other personalized
support services in a residential setting for elderly residents who cannot live
independently but who do not need the level of medical care provided in a
skilled nursing facility. Sunrise also provides additional specialized care and
services to residents with certain low acuity medical needs and residents with
Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia. By offering this full range of
services, Sunrise is able to accommodate the changing needs of residents as they
age and develop further physical or cognitive frailties.
Sunrise has continued to experience growth in operations over the 12
months ended December 31, 1999 and continued to capitalize on its brand
awareness by accepting third-party management and development contracts. During
this period, Sunrise began operating an additional 60 facilities in which it has
an ownership interest (including facilities held for sale following the
acquisition of Karrington) and managing an additional three facilities for
independent third parties. Sunrise also entered into several third-party
management and development contracts during 1999. As a result, total operating
revenue increased substantially to $255.2 million for 1999 from $170.7 million
for 1998, and correspondingly, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization ("EBITDA") increased to $75.2
-39-
<PAGE> 40
million for 1999 from $59.4 million for 1998. Average resident occupancy for
stabilized facilities increased to 95.6% for 1999 from 94.3% for 1998, and the
average daily resident fee for these stabilized facilities increased to $97.1
for 1999 from $85.8 for 1998. Net income, however, decreased to $20.2 million
for 1999, or $0.94 per share (diluted), from $22.3 million for 1998, or $1.11
per share (diluted). The decrease in net income between 1999 and 1998 was due in
part to an $8.0 million increase in general and administrative expenses,
recognition of non-recurring charges of $5.1 million, $0.5 million in
development and pre-rental expenses resulting from termination of a development
project in the Southeast and the recognition of $7.8 million of income taxes in
1999. In prior years, income tax expense was offset by recognizing tax benefits
of certain net operating loss carryforwards.
Sunrise's growth objectives include developing new Sunrise model
assisted living facilities and selectively acquiring existing facilities.
Sunrise currently has 22 facilities under construction with a resident capacity
of approximately 1,900. Sunrise has also entered into contracts to purchase 43
additional development sites, 25 of which are zoned, and to lease one additional
site. Sunrise is pursuing additional development opportunities and also plans to
acquire additional facilities as market conditions warrant.
In connection with the implementation of its growth plans, in prior
years Sunrise made significant investments in its infrastructure through the
addition of information technology, as well as additions to headquarters and
regional staff. During 1999, Sunrise continued to invest in these areas to
support both the growth of Sunrise and to provide expansion and enhancement to
some of its existing computer and communication systems, and completed efforts
to ensure these systems were year 2000 compliant.
Sunrise has expanded its previously-announced plan of selling
selected real estate assets, subject to market conditions, as a normal part of
its operations while retaining long-term management through operating
agreements, to include the potential sale of approximately 20 properties each
year. This strategy of selling selected real estate assets as a normal part of
operations should enable Sunrise to reduce debt, redeploy its capital into new
development projects and realize gains on appreciated real estate. In June 1999,
Sunrise completed the sale of two assisted living facilities located in
Columbia, Maryland and Norwood, Massachusetts for an aggregate sales price of
$27.9 million in cash. The transaction will result in the realization of up to
an $11.3 million gain over 3 quarters following the sale. As of December 31,
1999, Sunrise recognized $5.1 million of the gain. Previously, in September
1998, Sunrise completed the sale of two assisted living facilities located in
Maryland for an aggregate sales price of $29.3 million in cash that will result
in the realization of up to a $6.4 million gain over a maximum of 15 quarters
following the sale. As of December 31, 1999, Sunrise has recognized $3.4 million
of the
-40-
<PAGE> 41
gain. The remaining gain is deferred, the recognition of which is contingent
upon future events. For tax purposes, the transactions were set up as tax-free
exchanges. Sunrise continues to operate the facilities under long-term operating
agreements.
On May 14, 1999, Sunrise completed its acquisition of Karrington
Health, Inc. through a tax-free, stock-for-stock transaction in which it issued
2.3 million common shares in exchange for all the outstanding shares of
Karrington and Karrington became a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise. The total
transaction was valued at $85.1 million, including merger and stock issuance
costs of $8.4 million and the fair value of assumed employee stock options of
$1.5 million. Karrington operates assisted living facilities providing services
to the elderly.
The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting and accordingly, the results of operations of Karrington for the
period from May 14, 1999 are included in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, which are subject to
adjustment when additional information concerning asset and liability valuations
is finalized. The $35.1 million of costs in excess of assets acquired are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 38 years, which represents the weighted
average useful lives of the assets purchased.
The carrying amounts of all intangibles, which represented 6.3% of
total assets and 20.7% of stockholders' equity as of December 31, 1999, are
reviewed for impairment annually. If the review indicates that the intangible
assets are not expected to be recoverable based on the undiscounted cash flows
of the acquired assets over the remaining amortization periods, the carrying
value of the intangible assets will be adjusted.
Sunrise intends to sell 16 Karrington operating properties, four
zoned development sites and one non-operating property, which were inconsistent
with Sunrise's product and market strategy. Most of the facilities are
Karrington Cottage prototype models, which consist of 20 units or less. These
properties are classified as assets held for sale on the accompanying balance
sheet. Sunrise anticipates completing the sale of substantially all of the
assets held for sale by the third quarter of 2000.
Due to market conditions in the areas where the assets held for sale
are located, Sunrise elected in December 1999 to adjust downward the value
assigned to certain of these assets, which resulted in an adjustment to the
original purchase price allocation of the Karrington acquisition. As a result of
the adjustment, the carrying value of assets held for sale decreased by $14.1
million from Sunrise's original estimated assigned fair value. The valuation
-41-
<PAGE> 42
adjustments are reflected as a change in goodwill and the deferred tax accounts
that are associated with the Karrington acquisition.
Sunrise has continued its efforts to explore international
development and acquisition possibilities. To date, Sunrise has entered into a
joint venture arrangement with a third party that is providing up to $55.3
million of the equity capital to develop up to 22 projects in the United Kingdom
and Canada. A director of Sunrise is a managing director in the third party that
is providing such equity capital and a former director is a general partner in
the third party. Currently, the joint venture has one property operating in the
United Kingdom, six properties under development in Canada, a purchase
commitment for a property in Canada and a purchase commitment for a property in
the United Kingdom. Sunrise provides management and development services to the
joint venture on a contract-fee basis with rights to acquire the assets in the
future and has agreed to invest up to $2.8 million of equity capital in the
joint venture. As of December 31, 1999, the third party has provided
approximately $12.5 million and Sunrise has provided $1.0 million of equity
capital to the joint venture.
Sunrise's Board of Directors has authorized Sunrise to repurchase
outstanding shares of Sunrise common stock up to an aggregate purchase price of
$30.0 million. Sunrise expects to fund the stock repurchases from available
funds and the expansion of its asset sale/manage back program. Under the stock
repurchase program, Sunrise is authorized to repurchase Sunrise common stock in
the open market or in privately negotiated transactions from time to time over
the next 12 months, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements
and other factors. The stock repurchase program does not obligate Sunrise to
repurchase any specific number of shares, and repurchases pursuant to the
program may be suspended or resumed at any time or from time to time without
further notice or announcement.

=================================================================================================
</TABLE>
Sunrise derives its revenues from two primary sources: (1) resident
fees for the delivery of assisted living services and (2) management services
income for management and development of facilities owned by third parties.
Historically, most of Sunrise's operating revenue has come from resident fees,
which in 1999, 1998 and 1997 comprised 85.2 %, 89.0% and 95.3% of total
operating revenues, respectively. Residents, their families or other responsible
parties typically pay resident fees monthly. In 1999, 1998 and 1997
approximately 99% of Sunrise's revenue was derived from private pay sources.
Resident fees include revenue derived from basic care, community fees, plus
care, Reminiscence(TM) and other resident related services. Community fees are
one-time fees generally equal to 30 to 60 times the daily resident fee payable
by a resident upon admission. Plus care and Reminiscence(TM) fees are paid by
residents who require personal care in excess of services provided under the
basic care program.

for facilities owned by unconsolidated joint ventures and other third party
owners. Management services income includes management fees, which are generally
in the range of 5% to 7% of a managed facility's total operating revenue for
homes in operation, and development fees for site acquisition, development
services, facility design and construction management services. Management
services income accounted for 9.3%, 9.1% and 4.7% of operating revenue in 1999,
1998, 1997, respectively.
Sunrise classifies its operating expenses into the following
categories: (1) facility operating, which include labor, food, marketing and
other direct facility expenses; (2) facility contract services, which include
operating expenses reimbursable to Sunrise (3) facility development and
pre-rental, which include non-capitalized development expenses and pre-rental
labor and marketing expenses; (4) general and administrative, which primarily
include headquarters and regional staff expenses and other overhead costs; (5)
depreciation and amortization; and (6) facility lease, which represent rental
expenses for facilities and property not owned by Sunrise.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998
Operating Revenue. Operating revenue for 1999 increased 49.5% to
$255.2 million from $170.7 million for 1998 due primarily to the growth in
resident fees. Resident fees, including community fees, for 1999 increased $65.5
million, or 43.1%, to $217.4 million from $151.9 million for 1998. This increase
was due primarily to the inclusion, for the year ended December 31, 1999, of
approximately $26.2 million from the Karrington properties acquired in May 1999
and $5.0 million of resident fees generated from the operations of new Sunrise
developed assisted living facilities open in 1999 that were not open during
1998. Another $31.4 million of the increase in resident fees was from facilities
operated for a full year in 1999 versus a partial period in 1998. This increase
was partially offset by an $8.3 million decrease in resident fees due to the
sale of properties in 1998 and 1999. The remaining increase in resident fees was
primarily due to an increase in the average daily resident fee (excluding
community fees) for owned facilities operated by Sunrise for at least twelve
months or that have achieved occupancy percentages of 95% or above ("Stabilized
Facilities").
Average resident occupancy for Stabilized Facilities increased to
95.6% for 1999 from 94.3% for 1998. The occupancy rate excludes facilities with
temporary vacancies and resident relocations generally of between three to six
months due to renovations. Sunrise increased its owned and operated Stabilized
Facilities by 53 percent over 1998 to 49 Stabilized Facilities for 1999 from 32
-44-
<PAGE> 45
Stabilized Facilities in 1998. The average daily resident fee, excluding
community fees, for these Stabilized Facilities increased to $97 for 1999 from
$86 for 1998. The increase is due to the inclusion of additional stabilized
prototype facilities which have higher basic care rates, a general increase in
the basic care rate at other facilities and an increase in the number of
residents receiving plus care and Reminiscence(TM) care services. For the 29
communities currently owned, which were stabilized in both periods, occupancy
increased to 95.4% for 1999 from 94.2% for 1998. The average resident occupancy
of the properties acquired from Karrington in May 1999 increased from 77.5% for
the third quarter of 1999 to 79.5% for the fourth quarter of 1999.
Management services income for 1999 increased to $23.8 million from
$15.6 million for 1998. This $8.2 million increase resulted primarily from
additional development contracts entered into in 1999 with unconsolidated joint
ventures and third-party owners. The increase resulted primarily from a $6.8
million increase in development fees to $19.9 million for 1999 from $13.1
million for 1998 relating to the development of facilities for unconsolidated
joint ventures and third party owners. This increase is primarily due to the
increase in the number of development contracts entered into during 1999.
Facility contract services revenue for 1999 increased to $7.0
million from $1.2 million for 1998. Of the $5.8 million increase, $2.6 was
primarily due to the addition of two facilities under long-term operating
agreements in 1999. The remaining $3.2 million increase in facility contract
services revenue was from operating two facilities sold in 1998 for a full year
in 1999 versus a partial period in 1998.
In 1999, Sunrise recognized gains of $7.0 million on the sale of
assisted living communities compared to $2.0 million in 1998.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for 1999 increased by 53.8%
to $203.8 million from $132.5 million for 1998. The increase in operating
expenses for 1999 was attributable to increases in all of the following
expenses: facility operating, facility development and pre-rental, general and
administrative, depreciation and amortization and facility lease. Sunrise also
incurred significant non-recurring charges in 1999.
Facility operating expense for 1999 increased by 47.5% to $131.1
million from $88.8 million for 1998. As a percentage of resident fees, facility
operating expense for 1999 increased to 60.3% from 58.5% for 1998. Of the $42.2
million increase, $21.7 million was attributable to expenses from operations at
the Karrington properties and $3.0 million from operations at new Sunrise
developed assisted living facilities open in 1999 that were not open in 1998.
Another $17.6 million of the increase in facility operating expenses was from
facilities operating for a full
-45-
<PAGE> 46
year in 1999 versus a partial period in 1998. This increase was partially offset
by a $4.8 million decrease due to sale of properties in 1998 and 1999. The
remaining balance of the increase was primarily due to an increase in labor and
general and administrative expense at facilities that were operational for a
full year in both periods.
Facility contract services expense for 1999 increased to $6.4
million from $1.1 million for 1998. Of the $5.3 million increase, $2.5 was
primarily due to the addition of two facilities under long-term operating
agreements in 1999. The remaining $2.8 million increase in facility contract
services expense was from operating two facilities sold in 1998 for a full year
in 1999 versus a partial period in 1998.
Facility development and pre-rental expenses for 1999 increased
38.2% to $7.2 million from $5.2 million for 1998. The $2.0 million increase in
facility development and pre-rental expenses for 1999 was primarily related to
an increase in development costs related to third-party development activity.
General and administrative expenses for 1999 increased 62.8% to
$20.7 million from $12.7 million in 1998. As a percentage of operating revenue,
general and administrative expenses for 1999 increased to 8.1% compared to 7.5%
in 1998. The $8.0 million increase in general and administrative expenses for
1999 was primarily related to labor costs, consisting of hiring and training
additional staff at the headquarters and regional offices. The additional
staffing is due, in part, to the 63 new facilities operated in 1999, including
three managed facilities and the facilities acquired from Karrington in 1999.
Depreciation and amortization expenses for 1999 compared to 1998
increased $3.8 million, or 17.5%, to $25.4 million from $21.7 million for 1998
primarily due to a $4.9 million increase in depreciation expense, partially
offset by a $1.1 million decrease in amortization expense. Of the increase in
depreciation expense, $1.3 million related to the acquisition of the Karrington
properties and $0.7 million related to new Sunrise developed facilities that
were not open in 1998. Another $2.5 million of the increase in depreciation
expense was from facilities operating for a full year in 1999 versus a partial
year in 1998. This increase was partially offset by $0.7 million due to the sale
of properties in 1998 and 1999.
Facility lease expense increased $4.9 million to $7.9 million for
1999 from $3.0 million for 1998. The increase was primarily due to the operation
of 12 additional Karrington leased properties assumed in the acquisition.
Sunrise recorded non-recurring charges of $5.1 million during 1999,
of which $4.4 million related to the consolidation and integration of the
acquired operations and development pipeline of Karrington and $0.7 million
related to the termination of a property acquisition agreement.

Other income (expense). Interest income increased to $10.8 million
for 1999 compared to $6.7 million for 1998. This increase in interest income is
primarily due to interest income from notes receivable (see Note 4 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements). Interest expense increased for 1999 to $32.6
million from $22.1 million for 1998. Of this increase, $6.1 million was due to
interest on additional borrowings under one of Sunrise's existing credit
facilities and $5.3 million was due to additional borrowings under new credit
facilities. Another $1.2 million was due to the debt assumed through the
acquisition of Karrington. Interest expense was offset, in part, by a $2.1
million increase in capitalized interest during 1999.
Equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated assisted living
facilities. Equity in losses of unconsolidated assisted living facilities for
1999 was $1.2 million compared to earnings of approximately zero for 1998. The
$1.2 million increase in equity in losses of unconsolidated assisted living
facilities is primarily due to startup losses of the 10 joint venture properties
that opened in 1999, in which Sunrise has ownership interests ranging from 9% to
15%.
Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes was $7.8
million and zero for 1999 and 1998, respectively. The difference between the tax
provision calculated at the statutory federal income tax rate and the actual tax
provision recorded for each year are as follows:

Realization of the deferred tax asset of $8.2 million at December
31, 1999 is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income prior to the
expiration of the loss carryforwards. Sunrise expects to fully utilize the loss
carryforwards prior to expiration. Therefore, the valuation allowance at
December 31, 1998 of $8.6 million was released in 1999, of which, $6.0 was
credited directly to equity (see Note 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements).

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997
Operating Revenue. Operating revenue for 1998 increased 89.9% to
$170.7 million from $89.9 million for 1997 due primarily to the growth in
resident fees. Resident fees, including community fees, for 1998 increased $66.2
million, or 77.3%, to $151.9 million from $85.6 million for 1997. This increase
was due primarily to the inclusion for the year ended December 31, 1998 of
approximately $23.7 million of resident fees generated from the operations of
additional facilities opened in 1998 and a $35.6 million increase in resident
fees from facilities operated for a full year in 1998 that were initially opened
in 1997. The remaining increase in resident fees was primarily due to an
increase in the average daily resident fee, excluding community fees, for owned
facilities operated by Sunrise for at least twelve months.
Average resident occupancy for Stabilized Facilities remained
unchanged at 94% for both 1998 and 1997. The occupancy rate excludes facilities
with temporary vacancies and resident relocations generally of between three to
six months due to renovations. The average daily resident fee, excluding
community fees for Stabilized Facilities increased to $86 for 1998 from $78 for
1997. The increase is due to the inclusion of additional stabilized prototype
facilities which have higher basic care rates, a general increase in the basic
care rate at other facilities, and an increase in the number of residents
receiving plus care and Reminiscence(TM) care services. Average resident
occupancy for owned facilities in initial resident lease-up increased to 70% for
1998 from 62% for 1997. The average daily resident fee, excluding community
fees, for these facilities increased to $107 for 1998 from $94 for 1997.
Management services income for 1998 increased to $15.6 million from
$4.2 million for 1997. The increase resulted primarily from a $11.2 million
increase in development and management fees to $15.2 million for 1998 from $4.0
million for 1997 relating to the development of facilities for unconsolidated
joint ventures and third party owners. This increase is primarily due to the
increase in the number of development and management contracts entered into from
the fourth quarter of 1997 through 1998. Sunrise had 24 development and
management contracts as of December 31, 1998 and 18 development and management
contracts as of December 31, 1997.
In 1998, Sunrise recognized a gain of $1.5 million on the sale of
two assisted living communities and a $0.5 million gain on the sale of its
minority interest in a tenancy-in-common that owned one facility.
-48-
<PAGE> 49
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for 1998 increased by 62.7%
to $132.5 million from $81.5 million for 1997. The increase in operating
expenses was attributable to increases in all of the following areas: facility
operating, facility contract services, general and administrative, depreciation
and amortization and facility lease expenses.
Facility operating expense for 1998 increased 66.7% to $88.8 million
from $53.3 million for 1997. As a percentage of resident fees, facility
operating expense for 1998 decreased to 58.5% from 62.2% for 1997. Of the $35.5
million increase, $14.3 million was attributable to expenses from the operations
of additional assisted living facilities operated by Sunrise in 1998 as compared
to 1997 and $17.9 million was attributable to facilities operated for a full
year in 1998 that were initially opened in 1997. The remaining balance of the
increase was primarily due to an increase in labor and general and
administrative expense at facilities that were operational for a full year in
both periods.
General and administrative expense for 1998 increased 21.7% to $12.7
million from $10.5 million for 1997. As a percentage of operating revenue,
general and administrative expense for 1998 decreased to 7.5% from 11.6% for
1997, which is a reflection of higher operating revenue in the 1998 period. The
$2.3 million increase in general and administrative expense for 1998 was
primarily related to labor costs, consisting of hiring and training additional
staff at the headquarters and regional offices.
Depreciation and amortization expense for 1998 compared to 1997
increased $11.1 million, or 104.4%, to $21.7 million from $10.6 million. Of the
increase, $6.4 million related to homes opened during 1998 and $4.7 million
related to homes operated for a full year in 1998 that were initially opened in
1997.
Facility lease expense increased $1.5 million primarily due to the
opening of two facilities developed and leased by Sunrise in 1998 and two
facilities operated for a full year in 1998 initially opened in 1997.
Other Income (Expense). Interest income decreased to $6.7 million
for 1998 compared to $6.9 million for 1997. This decrease was primarily due to
decreased funds available for investment, offset, in part, by an increase in
interest income from notes receivable. See note 4 of notes to consolidated
financial statements. Interest expense increased for 1998 to $22.1 million from
$11.5 million for 1997. Of this increase, $3.6 million was due to a full year of
interest on Sunrise's $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5 1/2%
convertible subordinated notes due 2002 issued in June 1997 and $5.6 million was
due to interest on additional borrowings under one of Sunrise's credit
facilities. The remaining increase was primarily due to a decrease in
capitalized interest in 1998 versus 1997 due to a reduction in the average
balance of funded project costs.
-49-
<PAGE> 50
Income Tax. Sunrise generated taxable income for the year ended
December 31, 1998 for the first time since its formation. Income tax expense for
the year was offset by a $9.8 million reduction in Sunrise's deferred tax asset
valuation allowance. The change in the valuation allowance reflects the
reduction of the combined net difference in net book and tax bases of property
and equipment, the expected tax benefit of various timing differences and the
anticipated utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. Of the remaining
$8.6 million unrecognized deferred tax assets, approximately $2.6 million
related to the remaining difference between the net book and tax bases of
property and equipment and approximately $6.0 million related to the tax benefit
of nonqualified stock options that have not been recognized for tax purposes.
When the valuation allowance related to the nonqualified stock options was
released, the tax benefit was credited directly to equity in 1999. See note 16
of notes to consolidated financial statements.
Realization of the tax benefits associated with the long-term
deferred tax assets is dependent on Sunrise generating sufficient taxable income
prior to the expiration of the loss carryforward and reversals of the timing
differences. Based on this uncertainty, Sunrise maintained a valuation allowance
of $8.6 million on the deferred tax asset at December 31, 1998.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
To date, the Sunrise has financed its operations from long-term
borrowings, equity offerings and cash generated from operations. At December 31,
1999, Sunrise had $700.9 million of outstanding debt at a weighted average
interest rate of 7.17%. Of the amount of outstanding debt, Sunrise had $369.3
million of fixed-rate debt, excluding a $0.6 million loan discount, at a
weighted average interest rate of 6.92%, and $332.2 million of variable rate
debt at a weighted average interest rate of 7.45%. Increases in prevailing
interest rates could increase Sunrise's interest payment obligations relating to
variable-rate debt. For example, a one percent increase in interest rates would
increase annual interest expense by approximately $3.3 million.
At December 31, 1999, Sunrise had approximately $53.5 million in
unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, including $8.5 million in high quality
short-term investments (A1/P1 rated) and currently has $196.1 million of unused
lines of credit.
At December 31, 1999, a subsidiary of Sunrise had a syndicated
revolving credit facility for $400.0 million. Sunrise guarantees the repayment
of all amounts outstanding under this credit facility. The credit facility is
secured by cross-collateralized first mortgages on the real property and
improvements and first liens
-50-
<PAGE> 51
on all other assets of the subsidiary. Advances under the facility bear interest
at LIBOR plus 1.50%. There were $210.0 million of advances outstanding under
this credit facility as of December 31, 1999. The credit facility expires in
July 2002.
Other subsidiaries have revolving credit facilities totaling $174.8
million. The repayments of the amounts outstanding under these credit facilities
are also guaranteed by Sunrise. The credit facilities are secured by real
property and first liens on other assets. Advances under these facilities
totaled $168.7 million as of December 31, 1999 and bear interest at rates
ranging from LIBOR plus 1.25% to LIBOR plus 2.35%.
Sunrise has outstanding $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of
5 1/2% convertible subordinated notes due 2002. The convertible notes bear
interest at 5 1/2% per annum payable semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of
each year. The conversion price is $37.1875, which is equivalent to a conversion
rate of 26.89 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the convertible notes. The
convertible notes are redeemable at the option of Sunrise commencing June 15,
2000, at specified premiums. The holders of the convertible notes may require
Sunrise to repurchase the notes upon a change of control of Sunrise, as defined
in the convertible notes.
In May 1999, Sunrise entered into a multi-property first mortgage
loan agreement for $88.0 million secured by eight properties. The loan accrues
interest at 7.14% and matures on June 1, 2009. The proceeds were used to reduce
the balance of one of Sunrise's credit facilities and, as a result, convert a
portion of Sunrise's variable rate debt into debt with a fixed rate. At December
31, 1999, $87.2 million was outstanding.
Sunrise has an $85.6 million (excluding a $0.6 million discount)
multi-property mortgage, collateralized by a blanket first mortgage on all
assets of a subsidiary of Sunrise, consisting of 15 facilities. The
multi-property mortgage consists of two separate debt classes: Class A in the
amount of $65.0 million bears a fixed interest rate of 8.56% and is interest
only until the maturity date of May 31, 2001; and Class B in the amount of $20.6
million bears a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.75% and is payable in
installments through May 2001.
As of December 31, 1999, Sunrise had various other debt outstanding
totaling approximately $168.7 million, including $64.1 million of debt assumed
through the acquisition of Karrington, with interest rates ranging from 5.6% to
10.0%.
Sunrise has entered into a swap transaction whereby, effective
during the period June 18, 1998 through June 18, 2001, outstanding advances of
up to $19.0 million LIBOR floating rate debt bear interest at a fixed rate based
on a fixed LIBOR base rate of 7.30%. Sunrise has entered into another swap
transaction whereby, effective during the period August 20, 1997 through April
1, 2003,
-51-
<PAGE> 52
outstanding advances of up to $7.0 million under LIBOR floating rate debt bear
interest at a fixed LIBOR base rate of 7.14%. In November 1999, Sunrise settled
the $7.0 million swap transaction. There was no gain or loss on the settlement.
Sunrise recorded net interest expense in 1999, 1998 and 1997 in the amounts of
$511,000, $227,000 and $17,000, respectively, for swap transactions.
There are various financial covenants and other restrictions in Sunrise's debt
instruments, including provisions which:
- require it to meet specified financial tests. For example,
Sunrise's $85.6 million multi-property mortgage, which is
secured by 15 of its facilities, requires that these
facilities maintain a cash flow to interest expense coverage
ratio of at least 1.25 to 1. Sunrise's $400.0 million credit
facility requires Sunrise to have a consolidated tangible net
worth of at least $255.0 million, to maintain a consolidated
minimum cash liquidity balance of at least $25.0 million and
to meet other financial ratios. These tests are administered
on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on the covenant;
- require consent for changes in management or control of
Sunrise. For example, Sunrise's $400.0 million revolving
credit facility requires the lender's consent for any merger
where Paul Klaassen or Teresa Klaassen does not remain
chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Sunrise;
- restrict the ability of Sunrise subsidiaries to borrow
additional funds, dispose of assets or engage in mergers or
other business combinations without lender consent; and
- require that Sunrise maintain minimum occupancy levels at its
facilities to maintain designated levels of borrowings. For
example, Sunrise's $400.0 million credit facility requires
that 85% occupancy be achieved after 12 months for a newly
opened facility and, following this 12-month period, be
maintained at or above that level.
Working capital increased to $95.5 million at December 31, 1999 from
$69.6 million at December 31, 1998, primarily due from net borrowings during the
year ended December 31, 1999, an increase in receivables related to management
and development contracts from unrelated and related parties and, in conjunction
with the Karrington acquisition, 16 operating properties, four zoned development
sites and one non-operating property that are held for sale. Receivables from
related parties are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The increase was offset, in part, by
Sunrise's continued investment in the development and ownership of assisted
living facilities.
-52-
<PAGE> 53
Net cash provided by operating activities for 1999 and 1998 was
approximately $31.1 million and $27.1 million, respectively. Net cash provided
by operating activities for 1999 reflects an increase in Sunrise's activities
related to the development of unconsolidated joint venture properties.
During 1999 and 1998, Sunrise used $223.4 million and $146.4
million, respectively, for investing activities. Investing activities included
investment in property and equipment in the amounts of $178.4 million and $126.2
million, respectively, related to the construction of assisted living
facilities. In 1999, Sunrise also invested $63.6 million to facilitate the
development of assisted living facilities with third parties, compared to $45.3
million in 1998. These investing activities were offset, in part, by proceeds
from the sale of two assisted living facilities in June 1999 amounting to $26.9
million plus $7.6 million of proceeds from investments and notes receivable.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $191.6 million and
$90.9 million for 1999 and 1998, respectively. Financing activities in 1999 and
1998 included additional borrowings of $313.5 million and $108.0 million,
respectively, offset, in part, by debt repayments of $122.1 million and $23.4
million, respectively. Additional borrowings during 1999 included the $88.0
million loan entered into in May 1999 and one of Sunrise's credit facilities.
The additional borrowings under Sunrise's credit facility during 1999 and 1998
were used to fund Sunrise's continued development of assisted living facilities.
Debt repayments during 1999 included the use of the proceeds from the $88.0
million loan to reduce the outstanding balance on one of Sunrise's credit
facilities.
Sunrise currently estimates that the existing credit facilities,
together with existing working capital, proceeds from sales of selected real
estate assets as a normal part of its operations, financing commitments and
financing expected to be available, will be sufficient to fund facilities
currently under construction. Additional financing will, however, be required to
complete additional development and to refinance existing indebtedness. Sunrise
estimates that it will cost between $90.0 million and $131.0 million to complete
the facilities Sunrise currently has under construction. Sunrise has entered
into contracts to purchase and lease additional sites. The total contracted
purchase price of these sites is $67.5 million. Sunrise estimates that it will
cost between $336.5 million and $479.0 million to develop these properties.
Sunrise expects that the cash flow from operations, together with borrowings
under existing credit facilities, will be sufficient to fund the development
sites for these additional properties for at least the next six months. Sunrise
expects from time to time to seek additional funding through public or private
financing sources, including equity or debt financing. There can be no assurance
that such financing and refinancing will be available on acceptable terms.
-53-
<PAGE> 54
The ability of Sunrise to achieve its development plans will depend
upon a variety of factors, many of which will be outside the control of Sunrise.
These factors include:
- obtaining zoning, land use, building, occupancy, licensing and other
required governmental permits for the construction of new facilities
without experiencing significant delays;
- completing construction of new facilities on budget and on schedule;
- the ability to work with third-party contractors and subcontractors
who construct the facilities;
- shortages of labor or materials that could delay projects or make
them more expensive;
- adverse weather conditions that could delay projects;
- finding suitable sites for future development activities at
acceptable prices; and
- addressing changes in laws and regulations or how existing laws and
regulations are applied.
Sunrise cannot assure that it will not experience delays in
completing facilities under construction or in development or that it will be
able to identify suitable sites at acceptable prices for future development
activities. If it fails to achieve its development plans, its growth could slow,
which would adversely impact its revenues and results of operations.
Sunrise's growth plan includes the acquisition of assisted living
facilities or companies operating assisted living facilities such as Karrington.
The success of Sunrise's acquisitions will be determined by numerous factors,
including the Sunrise's ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates,
competition for such acquisitions, the purchase price, the financial performance
of the facilities after acquisition and the ability of Sunrise to integrate or
operate acquired facilities effectively. Any failure to do so may have a
material adverse effect on Sunrise's business, financial condition and results
of operations.
The long-term care industry is highly competitive and the assisted
living segment is becoming increasingly competitive. Sunrise competes with
numerous other companies that provide similar long-term care alternatives, such
as home health care agencies, facility-based service programs, retirement
communities, convalescent centers and other assisted living providers. In
general, regulatory and other barriers to competitive entry in the assisted
living industry are not substantial. In pursuing its growth strategies, Sunrise
has experienced and expects to continue to experience increased competition in
its efforts to develop and acquire assisted living facilities. Some of the
present and potential competitors of Sunrise are significantly larger and have,
or may obtain, greater financial resources than Sunrise. Consequently, Sunrise
cannot assure that it will not encounter increased
-54-
<PAGE> 55
competition that could limit its ability to attract residents or expand its
business, which could have a material adverse effect on its revenues and
earnings.
Sunrise expects that the number of owned and operated facilities
will continue to increase substantially as it pursues its development and
acquisition programs for new assisted living facilities. This rapid growth will
place significant demands on Sunrise's management resources. Sunrise's ability
to manage its growth effectively will require it to continue to expand its
operational, financial and management information systems and to continue to
attract, train, motivate, manage and retain key employees. If Sunrise is unable
to manage its growth effectively, its business, financial condition and results
of operations could be adversely affected.
Sunrise believes that some assisted living markets have become or
are on the verge of becoming overbuilt. As described above, regulation and other
barriers to entry into the assisted living industry are not substantial.
Consequently, the development of new assisted living facilities could outpace
demand. Overbuilding in Sunrise market areas could, therefore, cause Sunrise to
experience decreased occupancy, depressed margins or lower operating results.
Sunrise believes that each local market is different and Sunrise is and will
continue to react in a variety of ways, including selective price discounting,
to the specific competitive environment that exists in each market.
MARKET RISK
Sunrise is exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in
interest rates on its notes receivable, investments and debt. The purpose of the
following analyses is to provide a framework to understand the Company's
sensitivity to hypothetical changes in interest rates as of December 31, 1999.
Sunrise has investments in notes receivable and bonds. Investments
in notes receivable are primarily with joint venture arrangements in which
Sunrise has equity ownership percentages ranging from 9% to 15%. Investments in
bonds are secured by the operating properties subject to the debt and are with
properties that are managed by Sunrise. The majority of the investments have
fixed rates. One of the notes has an adjustable rate. Sunrise utilizes a
combination of debt and equity financing to fund its development, construction
and acquisition activities. Sunrise seeks the financing at the most favorable
terms available at the time. When seeking debt financing, Sunrise uses a
combination of variable and fixed rate debt, whichever is more favorable in
management's judgment at the time of financing.
Sunrise has used interest rate swaps to manage the interest rates on
some of its long-term borrowings. As of December 31, 1999, Sunrise had one
interest rate swap agreement which effectively establishes fixed rates of 7.3%
on up to $19.0 million of long-term debt until June 2001. Sunrise does not
utilize forward or
-55-
<PAGE> 56
option contracts on foreign currencies or commodities, or other types of
derivative financial instruments.
For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the
fair market value of the debt, but not earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for
variable rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not impact fair
market value of the debt, but do affect the future earnings and cash flows.
Sunrise generally cannot prepay fixed rate debt prior to maturity without
penalty. Therefore, interest rate risk and changes in fair market value should
not have a significant impact on the fixed rate debt until Sunrise would be
required to refinance such debt. Holding the variable rate debt balance of
$332.2 million at December 31, 1999 constant, each one percentage point increase
in interest rates would result in an increase in interest expense for the coming
year of approximately $3.3 million.
The table below details by category the principal amount, the
average interest rates and the estimated fair market value. Some of the mortgage
loans receivable and some items in the various categories of debt, excluding the
convertible debentures, require periodic principal payments prior to the final
maturity date. The fair value estimates for the mortgage loans receivable are
based on the estimates of management and on rates currently prevailing for
comparable loans. The fair market value estimates for debt securities are based
on discounting future cash flows utilizing current rates offered to Sunrise for
debt of the same type and remaining maturity. The fair market value estimate of
the convertible notes is based on the market value at December 31, 1999.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In April 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued
Statement of Position 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities, which
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. SOP 98-5
provides guidance on the financial reporting of start-up costs and organization
costs. It requires costs of start-up activities and organization costs to be
expensed as incurred. It is Sunrise's policy to capitalize certain costs
incurred to rent its facilities such as costs of model units, their furnishings
and "grand openings" in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 67, Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real
Estate Projects. Additionally, initial direct costs associated with originating
lease transactions are capitalized in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 91, Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs
Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of
Leases. Direct costs include employees' compensation and payroll-related fringe
benefits directly related to acquiring leases. All costs of Sunrise's
development and leasing activities which are not considered to be within the
scope of Statement No. 67 or Statement No. 91 are expensed as incurred. SOP 98-5
states that the guidance provided by Statement No. 67 and Statement No. 91 is
not affected by the provisions of SOP 98-5. The adoption of SOP 98-5 in January
1999 did not materially affect results of operations or the financial position
of Sunrise.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,
which was to be effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 1999. In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities-Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133. Statement
No. 137 defers for one year the effective day of Statement No. 133, which will
apply to all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
Statement No. 133 standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments.
Sunrise participates in interest rate swap transactions, which would be
considered derivatives under Statement No. 133. Sunrise has not entered into any
other derivative transactions. To date, the net effect of the interest rate
swaps to Sunrise's results of operations has not been material. Therefore,
Statement No. 133 is not anticipated to affect results of operations or the
financial position of Sunrise.
IMPACT OF INFLATION
Resident fees from owned assisted living facilities and management
services income from facilities operated by Sunrise for third parties are the
primary sources of revenue. These revenues are affected by daily resident fee
rates and facility occupancy rates. The rates charged for the delivery of
assisted living services are
-57-
<PAGE> 58
highly dependent upon local market conditions and the competitive environment in
which the facilities operate. In addition, employee compensation expense is the
principal cost element of property operations. Employee compensation, including
salary increases and the hiring of additional staff to support Sunrise's growth
initiatives, have previously had a negative impact on operating margins and may
again do so in the foreseeable future.
Substantially all of Sunrise's resident agreements are for terms of
one year, but are terminable by the resident at any time upon 30 days' notice,
and allow, at the time of renewal, for adjustments in the daily fees payable,
and thus may enable Sunrise to seek increases in daily fees due to inflation or
other factors. Any increase would be subject to market and competitive
conditions and could result in a decrease in occupancy of Sunrise's facilities.
Sunrise believes, however, that the short-term nature of its resident agreements
generally serves to reduce the risk to Sunrise of the adverse effect of
inflation. There can be no assurance that resident fees will increase or that
costs will not increase due to inflation or other causes.
YEAR 2000 ISSUES
In prior years, Sunrise discussed the nature and progress of its
plans to become Year 2000 ready. In late 1999, the Company completed its
remediation and testing of systems. As a result of those planning and
implementation efforts, Sunrise experienced no significant disruptions in
mission critical information technology and non-information technology systems
and believes those systems successfully responded to the Year 2000 date change.
Sunrise expenditures were approximately $1.3 million during 1999 in connection
with upgrading and remediating its systems. Sunrise is not aware of any material
problems resulting from Year 2000 issues, either with embedded systems in
facilities operated, its internal financial systems, or the products and
services of third parties. Sunrise will continue to monitor its mission critical
computer applications and those of its suppliers and vendors throughout the year
2000 to ensure that any latent Year 2000 matters that may arise are addressed
promptly.

SUNRISE ASSISTED LIVING, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND PRESENTATION
Sunrise Assisted Living, Inc. ("Sunrise" or the "Company") is a provider of
assisted living services for seniors. Assisted living services provide a
residence, meals and non-medical assistance to elderly residents for a monthly
fee. Sunrise's services are generally not covered by health insurance and
therefore monthly fees are generally payable by the residents, their family, or
another responsible party.
Sunrise was incorporated in Delaware on December 14, 1994. The consolidated
financial statements include Sunrise's wholly owned subsidiaries that manage,
own and develop assisted living facilities. The consolidated financial
statements also include one limited partnership which owns a facility (Sunrise
of Gardner Park) in which Sunrise owns a 50% partnership interest and controls
the limited partnership through its status as the manager of the facility and as
the sole general partner with the unilateral ability under the partnership
agreement to conduct the ordinary course of business of the partnership. In
addition, the consolidated financial statements include four limited liability
companies. One of the limited liability companies owns two facilities (Sunrise
of Severna Park) in which Sunrise owns a 50% membership interest. The other
three limited liability companies own one facility each (Sunrise of Sheepshead
Bay, Sunrise of Mill Basin, and Sunrise of Park Ridge) in which Sunrise owns a
70% membership interest. Sunrise controls the four limited liability companies
through its status as the manager of the facilities and as sole managing member
of the limited liability companies with unilateral ability under the operating
agreements to conduct the ordinary course of business of the companies. It is
Sunrise's policy to consolidate non-wholly owned interests when, through its
managing partnership or operating agreements, status as manager of the facility
and sole general partner or managing member, Sunrise holds the unilateral
ability to conduct the ordinary course of business of the facility. In February
2000, Sunrise acquired the remaining 30% minority interest in Sunrise of Park
Ridge.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Sunrise considers cash and cash equivalents to include currency on hand,
demand deposits, and all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less at the date of purchase.
ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
Details of the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable are as follows

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value and
include interest and property taxes capitalized on long-term construction
projects during the construction period, as well as other costs directly related
to the development and construction of facilities. Maintenance and repairs are
charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Property and
equipment of Sunrise are reviewed for impairment whenever events or
circumstances indicate that the asset's undiscounted expected cash flows are not
sufficient to recover its carrying amount. Sunrise measures an impairment loss
by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. Fair value of
an asset is calculated as the present value of expected future cash flows.
Construction in progress includes pre-acquisition costs and other direct
costs related to acquisition, development and construction of facilities
including certain direct and indirect costs of Sunrise's development subsidiary.
If a project is abandoned, any costs previously capitalized are expensed.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets relate primarily to the acquisition of Karrington Health,
Inc. and are comprised of management contracts, leaseholds and costs in excess
of assets acquired. Costs in excess of assets acquired represent costs of
business acquisitions in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets
acquired. Such costs are being amortized over 38 years using the straight-line
method. Management contracts and leaseholds are also amortized using the
straight-line method over periods ranging from 11 to 40 years.
The carrying amounts of all intangible assets are reviewed for impairment
annually. If the review indicates that the intangible assets are not expected to
be recoverable based on the undiscounted cash flows of the acquired assets over
the remaining amortization periods, the carrying value of the intangible assets
will be adjusted.
PRE-RENTAL COSTS
Costs incurred to initially rent facilities are capitalized and amortized
over 12 months. All other pre-rental costs are expensed as incurred.
Effective January 1, 1999, Sunrise adopted the provisions of Statement of
Position 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities. SOP 98-5 provides
guidance on the financial reporting of start-up costs and organization costs. It
requires costs of start-up activities and organization costs to be expensed as
incurred. It is Sunrise's policy to capitalize certain costs incurred to rent
its facilities, such as costs of model units, their furnishings and "grand
openings," in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
67, Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects.
Additionally, initial direct costs associated with originating lease
transactions are capitalized in accordance with SFAS No. 91, Accounting for
Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and
Initial Direct Costs of Leases. Direct costs include employees' compensation and
payroll-related fringe benefits directly related to acquiring leases. All costs
of Sunrise's development and leasing activities which are not considered to be
within the scope of Statement No. 67 or Statement No. 91 are expensed as
incurred. SOP 98-5 states that the guidance provided by Statement No. 67 and
Statement No. 91 is not affected by the provisions of SOP 98-5. Therefore, the
adoption of SOP 98-5 did not materially affect results of operations or the
financial position of Sunrise.
DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS
Costs incurred in connection with obtaining permanent financing for
Company-owned facilities have been deferred and are amortized over the term of
the financing.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES
Sunrise owns non-controlling interests in some assisted living facilities,
most of which are currently under development. These investments include one
facility in which Sunrise has a 13.9% general and limited partnership ownership
interest, nine facilities in which Sunrise has a 14.5% interest in a limited
company, 23 facilities in which Sunrise has a 9% member interest in four limited
liability companies, three facilities in which Sunrise has a 35% member interest
in a limited liability company, three facilities in which Sunrise has a 19.9%
member interest in a limited liability company, and one facility in which
Sunrise has a 50% member interest in a limited liability company. Sunrise does
not control these entities as major business decisions require approval by the
other partners or members. Accordingly, these investments are accounted for
under the equity method, where the investments are recorded at cost and
subsequently are adjusted for equity in net income (loss) and cash contributions
and distributions. Sunrise eliminates intercompany profits on sales of services
that are capitalized by the ventures. Differences between the carrying value of
investments and the underlying equity in net assets of the investee are
amortized on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the
investments. Sunrise's interests in accumulated losses of unconsolidated
assisted living facilities are recorded below Sunrise's cost basis, which
reflects Sunrise's obligations as the general partner or managing member.
Sunrise has no liability for any other material commitments or contingencies of
partnerships or limited liability companies in which it is a general partner or
managing member.
As of December 31, 1999, the carrying value of investments in the net
assets of unconsolidated assisted living facilities exceeded the underlying
equity in net assets of the investees by $15.7 million.
INTEREST RATE SWAPS
Interest rate swap transactions are designated with certain levels of
outstanding debt. Amounts received or paid on the interest rate swaps are
recorded on an accrual basis as an adjustment to the related interest expense of
the outstanding debt based on the accrual method of accounting. The fair value
of and changes in fair value as a result of changes in market interest rates for
the interest rate swap agreements are not reflected in the financial statements.
Gains and losses on terminations of interest rate swap agreements are deferred
as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the outstanding debt and amortized
into interest expense over the remaining term of the original contract life of
the terminated swap agreement. In the event of early extinguishment of a
designated debt obligation, any realized or unrealized gain or loss from the
swap would be recognized in income coincident with the extinguishment gain or
loss. There were no gains or losses on terminations of interest swap agreements
recognized by Sunrise for the periods presented.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Operating revenue consists of resident fee revenue, including resident
community fees, management services revenue, facility contract services revenue
and realized gain on assisted living facilities. Generally, resident community
fees approximating thirty to sixty times the daily residence fee are received
from potential residents upon occupancy. Resident community fees are recognized
as income over the first ninety days of the resident's stay and are ratably
refundable if the prospective resident does not move into the facility or moves
out of the facility within ninety days. All other resident fee revenue is
recognized when services are rendered. Agreements with residents are for a term
of one year and are cancelable by residents with thirty days notice. Management
services revenue is comprised of revenue from management contracts and
development contracts. Revenue from management contracts is recognized in the
month in which it is earned in accordance with the terms of the management
contract. Revenue from development contracts is recognized over the term of the
respective development contracts using the percentage-of-completion method.
Facility contract services revenue is comprised of fees plus reimbursable
expenses of facilities operated with Sunrise's employees under long-term
operating agreements. Realized gain on assisted living facilities is recognized
upon consummation of the sale of assets unless a portion of the sale is
contingent upon future events or performance. Deferred gains on assets are then
recognized upon performance or resolution of the contingency.

INCOME TAXES
Sunrise accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability approach
which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the
differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities. A valuation allowance reduces deferred tax assets when it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Sunrise grants stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees with
an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant.
Sunrise accounts for stock option grants in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and accordingly recognizes no
compensation expense for the stock option grants.
SEGMENTS
Effective December 31, 1998, Sunrise adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information. Statement No. 131 establishes standards for
the way that a public company reports information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and requires that those companies report selected
information about operating segments in interim financial reports. It also
establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas and major customers. See Note 20 for information on Sunrise's
operating segments.
IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which is effective
for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. In June
1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 137,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133. Statement No. 137 defers for one year
the effective date of Statement No. 133, which will apply to all fiscal quarters
of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Statement No. 133
standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments. Sunrise participates in
interest rate swap transactions, which would be considered derivatives under
Statement No. 133. Sunrise has not entered into any other derivative
transactions. For the three year period ended December 31, 1999, the net effect
of the interest rate swaps to Sunrise's results of operations has not been
material. Therefore, Statement No. 133 is not anticipated to affect results of
operations or the financial position of Sunrise.

Certain 1998 and 1997 balances have been reclassified to conform with the

In January 1999, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise jointly formed a
limited liability company ("LLC II") with an unrelated third party in which
Sunrise's subsidiary owns a 9% minority interest. The purpose of LLC II is to
develop, construct and own assisted living facilities. Sunrise loaned LLC II
$7.3 million (the "LLC Note II") to partially finance the initial development
and construction of four properties. The LLC Note II to Sunrise's subsidiary is
subordinated to other lenders of LLC II. The principal amount of the loan and
accrued interest are due on the earlier of March 30, 2006 or termination of the
management agreement between the parties. See Note 17 Related-Party
Transactions, Joint Ventures.
In March 1999, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise jointly formed a
limited liability company ("LLC III") with an unrelated third party in which
Sunrise's subsidiary owns a 9% minority interest. The purpose of LLC III is to
develop, construct and own assisted living facilities. Sunrise loaned LLC III
$15.8 million (the "LLC Note III") to partially finance the initial development
and construction of five properties. The LLC Note III to Sunrise's subsidiary is
subordinated to other lenders of LLC III. The principal amount of the loan and
accrued interest are due on March 11, 2005. See Note 17 Related-Party
Transactions, Joint Ventures.
In March 1999, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise jointly formed a
limited liability company ("LLC IV") with an unrelated third party in which
Sunrise's subsidiary owns a 9% minority interest. The purpose of LLC IV is to
develop, construct, and own assisted living facilities. Sunrise loaned LLC IV
$6.0 million (the "LLC Note IV") to partially finance the initial development
and construction of six properties. The LLC Note IV to Sunrise's subsidiary is
subordinated to other lenders of LLC IV. The principal amount of the loan and
accrued interest are due on the earlier of May 28, 2006 or termination of the
management agreement between the parties. See Note 17 Related-Party
Transactions, Joint Ventures.
In November 1998, Sunrise agreed to make available up to approximately $3.4
million to a subsidiary of a joint venture of Sunrise in the United Kingdom
under a revolving credit arrangement. Interest on advances made under the credit
arrangement accrues at 12.0%. The outstanding principal and unpaid accrued
interest are due November 2001. See Note 17 Related-Party Transactions, Joint
Ventures.
In connection with the sale of Sunrise's minority interest in a
tenancy-in-common that owned one facility, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise
accepted a promissory note in the amount of $850,000 in March 1998. The
promissory note accrued interest at 8.0% per annum and was due in September
1998. In October 1998, the promissory note was amended to extend the maturity
date to August 1, 1999 and modify the payment terms to include a payment due in
October 1998, which has been received, followed by quarterly payments of
principal and interest. Under the terms of the amended promissory note, the
promissory note was in default as of August 1, 1999. The promissory note was
paid in full in February 2000.
In September 1997, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise loaned $1.9 million
("Beverly Hills Note") to owners of certain property on which Sunrise plans to
develop an assisted living facility. The proceeds of the Beverly Hills Note were
used by the owners to retire a note previously outstanding and secured by the
same property. Immediately following issuance of the Beverly Hills Note, the
wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise entered into a purchase agreement with the
owners to acquire this property. The entire sum of principal and unpaid accrued
interest of the promissory note is due on the earliest to occur of: 270 days
following the termination of the purchase and sale agreement by either the
owners or the wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise; any breach of the purchase
agreement by the owners; or the closing date as defined in the purchase
agreement. In April 1998, the promissory note was amended to increase the loan
by $250,000 and stop accruing interest. In June 1999, the principal balance plus
accrued and unpaid interest under the promissory note was paid in full.
In November 1998, Sunrise agreed to loan up to $10.0 million to Karrington
Health, Inc., a Columbus-based leading assisted living provider, under a
revolving line of credit. The proceeds of the line of credit were used by
Karrington for use in operations. Interest on the outstanding principal balance
of the line of credit was due and payable monthly. The note was amended in March
1999 to provide for up to $6.5

million of additional advances and to extend the maturity to January 2000. The
principal balance of the line of credit plus accrued and unpaid interest was
eliminated in May 1999 in connection with the acquisition of Karrington.
In January 1999, a facility, in which Sunrise has a controlling interest,
accepted a $0.5 million promissory note ("ADG Note") from its minority owner.
The ADG Note accrues interest at 10% per annum and is due annually beginning
February 22, 2000. The principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest are
due on February 22, 2009.
Management believes the net carrying cost of the notes receivable
approximates market value at December 31, 1999 and 1998.

bonds used to finance a facility managed by Sunrise. The 10% Bucks County
Industrial Development Authority, First Mortgage Revenue Bonds, July 1, 2019,
having a face value of $12.5 million, were purchased for $5.0 million. The bonds
were in financial default when purchased.
On June 30, 1995, the bonds were restructured, at no gain or loss to
Sunrise, to reduce their face amount to $5.8 million (Series A and C) and
provide the facility managed by Sunrise additional funding up to $750,000 for
renovations (Series B). Interest only is payable until maturity. In March 1999,
the Series C bonds were paid in full.
Subsequent to June 30, 1995, all interest payments on these bonds are
current. Sunrise recognized $721,000, $957,000, and $783,000 in interest income
during 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, on this investment. The bond discount
for the Series C bonds WAS being recognized as interest income over the life of
the loan commencing in 1998. Sunrise amortized $575,000 and $175,000 of the bond
discount in 1999 and 1998, respectively.
On December 2, 1998, Sunrise purchased four separate first trust mortgages,
secured by Karrington properties for $22.4 million, which includes a $0.3

Included in long-term debt is a note due to an employee and an entity
related to that employee. Interest accrued at 18% annually and principal was due
June 8, 1999. The balance of the note at December 31, 1998 was $40,000. In
October 1999, the principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest under the
promissory note was paid in full.
On June 6, 1997, Sunrise issued and sold $150.0 million aggregate principal
amount of 5 1/2% convertible subordinated notes due 2002. The convertible notes
bear interest at 5 1/2% per annum payable semiannually on June 15 and December
15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 1997. The conversion price is
$37.1875 (equivalent to a conversion rate of 26.89 shares per $1,000 principal
amount of the convertible notes). The convertible notes are redeemable at the
option of Sunrise commencing June 15, 2000, at specified premiums. The holders
of the convertible notes may require Sunrise to repurchase the convertible notes
upon a change of control of Sunrise as defined in the convertible notes. The net
proceeds to Sunrise from the sale of the convertible notes, after deducting
underwriting discounts and offering expenses, were approximately $145.6 million.
A subsidiary of Sunrise has obtained a syndicated revolving credit facility
for $400.0 million to be used for general corporate purposes, including the
continued construction and development of assisted living facilities. Sunrise
guarantees the repayment of all amounts outstanding under this credit facility.
The credit facility is secured by cross-collateralized first mortgages on the
real property and improvements and first liens on all assets of the subsidiary.
Advances under the facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.50%. The credit
facility expires in July 2002. There were $210.0 million of advances outstanding
under this credit facility as of December 31, 1999.
The multi-property mortgage is collateralized by a blanket first mortgage
on all assets of a subsidiary of Sunrise, consisting of 15 facilities. The
multi-property mortgage consists of two separate debt classes. Class A in the
amount of $65.0 million bears a fixed interest rate of 8.56% and is interest
only until the maturity date of May 31, 2001. Class B in the amount of $20.6
million bears a variable interest rate. Class B was interest only until July 1,
1997 at which time principal and interest payments were due using a 20-year
amortization schedule. The interest rate applicable to the floating rate debt
was reduced from LIBOR plus 5.75% to LIBOR plus 3.75% and, effective March 4,
1997 was further reduced to LIBOR plus 1.75%.
A participation interest of $3.2 million payable in connection with the
multi-property mortgage was recorded at the loan date. A corresponding amount
recorded as a loan discount is being amortized over the life of the loan.
Amortization of the discount of $419,000 has been included as interest expense
in 1999, 1998 and 1997.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In May 1999, Sunrise entered into a multi-property first mortgage for $88.0
million secured by eight properties. The loan accrues interest at 7.14% and
matures on June 1, 2009. The proceeds were used to reduce the balance of one of
Sunrise's credit facilities and, as a result, convert a portion of Sunrise's
variable rate debt into debt with a fixed rate. At December 31, 1999, $87.2
million was outstanding.
The other mortgages and notes payable relate primarily to 30 facilities
whereby outstanding balances are collateralized by the total assets of the
respective facility. Payments of principal and interest are made monthly.
Interest rates range from 5.6% to 10.0% with remaining maturities ranging from
less than one to 34 years. These other mortgages and notes payable total $174.8
million and have total borrowings of $168.7 million as of December 31, 1999,
which include $64.1 million of debt assumed through the acquisition of
Karrington.
Sunrise has entered into a swap transaction whereby, effective during the
period June 18, 1998 through June 18, 2001, outstanding advances of up to $19.0
million under LIBOR floating rate debt bear interest at a fixed rate based on a
fixed LIBOR base rate of 7.30%. Sunrise entered into another swap transaction
whereby, effective during the period August 20, 1997 through April 1, 2003,
outstanding advances of up to $7.0 million under LIBOR floating rate debt bear
interest at a fixed LIBOR base rate of 7.14%. In November 1999, Sunrise settled
the $7.0 million swap transaction. There was no gain or loss on the settlement.
Sunrise recorded net interest expense for 1999, 1998 and 1997 in the amounts of
$511,000, $227,000 and $17,000, respectively, for swap transactions.
There are various financial covenants and other restrictions in Sunrise's
debt instruments, including provisions which: (1) require it to meet certain
financial tests. For example, Sunrise's $85.6 million multi-property mortgage,
which is secured by 15 of its facilities, requires that these facilities
maintain a cash flow to interest expense coverage ratio of at least 1.25 to 1.
Sunrise's $400.0 million credit facility requires Sunrise to have a consolidated
tangible net worth of at least $255.0 million and to maintain a consolidated
minimum cash liquidity balance of at least $25.0 million. These tests are
administered on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on the covenant; (2)
require consent for changes in management or control of Sunrise. For example,
Sunrise's $400.0 million revolving credit facility requires the lender's consent
for any merger where Paul Klaassen or Teresa Klaassen does not remain chairman
of the board and chief executive officer of Sunrise; (3) restrict the ability of
Sunrise's subsidiaries to borrow additional funds, dispose of assets or engage
in mergers or other business combinations without lender consent; and (4)
require that Sunrise maintain minimum occupancy levels at its facilities. For
example, Sunrise's $400.0 million credit facility requires that 85% occupancy be
achieved after 12 months for newly opened facilities and, following this
12-month period, be maintained at or above that level.
Principal maturities of long-term debt as of December 31, 1999, are as
follows (in thousands):
2000 $36,103

9. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
In May 1996, Sunrise issued to one of its lenders warrants to purchase a
total of 50,000 shares of common stock. The per share exercise price of the
warrants was $17.00. The warrants were exercised in March 1998.
On May 14, 1999, Sunrise completed its acquisition of Karrington Health,
Inc. through a tax free, stock-for-stock transaction in which it issued 2.3
million common shares in exchange for all the outstanding shares of Karrington
and Karrington became a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise. The total
transaction was valued at $85.1 million, including merger and stock issuance
costs of $8.4 million and the fair value of assumed employee stock options of
$1.5 million.
Effective March 2000, Sunrise's Board of Directors authorized Sunrise to
repurchase outstanding shares of Sunrise common stock up to an aggregate
purchase price of $30.0 million. Sunrise expects to fund the stock repurchases
from available funds. Under the stock repurchase program, Sunrise is authorized
to repurchase Company common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated
transactions from time to time over the next 12 months, subject to market
conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The stock
repurchase program does not obligate Sunrise to repurchase any specific number
of shares, and repurchases pursuant to the program may be suspended or resumed
at any time or from time to time without further notice or announcement.
10. STOCK OPTION PLANS
Sunrise has stock option plans providing for the grant of incentive and
nonqualified stock options to employees, directors, consultants and advisors. At
December 31, 1999, these plans provided for the grant of options to purchase up
to 6,324,910 shares of common stock. In February 2000, an additional 500,000
shares of common stock were allocated for the granting of options to employees.
The option exercise price and vesting provisions of the options are fixed when
the option is granted. The options expire ten years from the date of grant and
generally vest over a four year period. The option exercise price is not less
than the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date the option is
granted. Sunrise also had a stock option agreement with one of its senior
executives. The agreement, as amended, was effective as of January 4, 1995 and
covered 450,000 shares of common stock that were reserved for issuance at an
exercise price of $8.00. As of December 31, 1999, all options were exercised.
In September 1998, Sunrise canceled 1.6 million options granted to
employees at exercise prices greater than $29.00 and granted an equal number of
options with an exercise price of $25.00. In connection with the new grants
certain vesting periods of the executive officers were extended.
On April 25, 1996, the Board of Directors adopted the 1996 Directors' Stock
Option Plan (the "Directors' Plan"). Any director who was a member of the Board
of Directors but not an officer or employee of Sunrise or any of its
subsidiaries (other than the persons elected as director representatives of the
holders of Series A Preferred Stock) was eligible to receive options under the
Directors' Plan. In March 2000, the Directors' Plan was terminated. An aggregate
of 75,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under existing option
agreements. The option exercise price is not less than the fair market value of
a share of common stock on the date the option was granted. The period for
exercising an option begins six months after the option was granted and
generally ends ten years from the date the option was granted. Options granted
under the Directors' Plan vested immediately. All options granted under the
Directors' Plan are non-incentive stock options. As of December 31, 1999, 75,000
options were granted.

Pro forma information regarding net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per
share is required by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and
has been determined as if Sunrise had accounted for its employee stock options
under the fair value method of that Statement. The fair value for these options
was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model
with the following weighted average assumptions for 1999, 1998 and 1997:
risk-free interest rate of 4.4% to 6.5%; dividend yield of 0%; expected lives of
7 to 10 years; and volatility of 36.8% to 57.38%.
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions
and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the
input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price
volatility. Because Sunrise's employee stock options have characteristics
significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the
subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in
management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable
single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

11. STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS AGREEMENT
The Board of Directors adopted a Stockholders Rights Agreement ("Rights
Agreement") effective April 25, 1996, as amended. All shares of common stock
issued by Sunrise between the date of adoption of the Rights Agreement and the
Distribution Date (as defined below) have rights attached to them. The rights
expire ten years after adoption of the Rights Agreement. Each right, when
exercisable, entitles the holder to purchase one one-thousandth of a share of
Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock at a price of $85.00 (the
"Purchase Price"). Until a right is exercised, the holder thereof will have no
rights as a stockholder of Sunrise.
The rights initially attach to the common stock. The rights will separate
from the common stock and a distribution of rights certificates will occur (a
"Distribution Date") upon the earlier to occur of (1) ten days following a
public announcement that a person or group (an "Acquiring Person") has acquired,
or obtained the right to acquire, beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the
outstanding shares of common stock (the "Stock Acquisition Date") or (2) ten
business days (or such later date as the Board of Directors may determine)
following the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer, the consummation
of which would result in the beneficial ownership by a person of 20% or more of
the outstanding shares of common stock. However, neither Paul J. Klaassen nor
Teresa M. Klaassen (nor their affiliates, associates and estates), each of whom,
as of the date of adoption of the Rights Agreement, beneficially owned in excess
of 20% of the outstanding shares of common stock, will be deemed an "Acquiring
Person," unless they acquire an additional 2% of the common stock which was
outstanding at the time of completion of Sunrise's initial public offering.
In general, if a person becomes the beneficial owner of 20% or more of the
then outstanding shares of common stock, each holder of a right may exercise the
right by purchasing common stock having a value equal to two times the Purchase
Price. If at any time following the Stock Acquisition Date (1) Sunrise is
acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction in which it is
not the surviving corporation (other than a merger which follows an offer
described in the preceding paragraph), or (2) 50% or more of Sunrise's assets or
earning power is sold or transferred, each holder of a right shall have the
right to receive, upon exercise, common stock of the acquiring company having a
value equal to two times the Purchase Price. The Board of Directors of Sunrise
generally may redeem the rights at a price of $.005 per right at any time until
ten days after an Acquiring Person has been identified as such.

13. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS
In March 1998, Sunrise sold its minority interest in a tenancy-in-common
that owned one facility resulting in a $0.5 million realized gain.
In September 1998, Sunrise completed the sale of two facilities for an
aggregate sales price of $29.3 million in cash. Sunrise will realize up to a
$6.4 million gain from the transaction over a maximum of 15 quarters. Sunrise
recognized a gain of $1.9 million and $1.5 million on the sale in 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The remaining gain was deferred, the recognition of which is
contingent upon future events. For tax purposes, the transaction is treated as a
tax-free exchange. Sunrise operates the two facilities under long-term operating
agreements.
In June 1999, Sunrise completed the sale of two other facilities for an
aggregate sales price of $27.9 million in cash. Sunrise will realize up to an
$11.3 million gain from the transaction over three quarters. Sunrise recognized
a gain of $5.1 million on the sale in 1999. The remaining gain was deferred, the
recognition of which is contingent upon future events. For tax purposes, the
transaction is treated as a tax-free exchange. Sunrise operates the two
facilities under long-term operating agreements.
On May 14, 1999, Sunrise completed its acquisition of Karrington Health,
Inc. through a tax-free, stock-for-stock transaction in which it issued 2.3
million common shares in exchange for all the outstanding shares of Karrington
and Karrington became a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunrise. The total
transaction was valued at $85.1 million, including merger and stock issuance
costs of $8.4 million and the fair value of assumed employee stock options of
$1.5 million. Karrington operates assisted living facilities providing services
to the elderly.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting
and, accordingly, the results of operations of Karrington for the period from
May 14, 1999 (excluding assets held for sale) are included in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. The purchase price was allocated to the
assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values,
which are subject to adjustment when additional information concerning asset and
liability valuations is finalized. Based on the preliminary allocation of the
purchase price, the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the
net assets acquired was $35.1 million. Sunrise acquired cash of $2.4 million in
the Karrington acquisition, which is included in the statement of cash flows.
The remainder of the Karrington transaction was a non-cash transaction for the
statement of cash flows.
Sunrise recorded non-recurring charges of $5.1 million during 1999, of
which $4.4 million related to the consolidation and integration of the acquired
operations and development pipeline of Karrington and $0.7 million related to
the termination of a property acquisition agreement. Of the $5.1 million
non-recurring charges, $3.8 million were non-cash transactions.
The following unaudited pro forma information presents the results of
operations of Sunrise for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively, as if the acquisition of Karrington had taken place as of January
1, 1998. This pro forma information excludes the results of operations of the
assets held for sale. See Note 14 Assets Held For Sale (in thousands, except

14. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
Sunrise intends to sell 16 operating properties, four zoned development
sites and one non-operating property acquired from Karrington within 12 months
following the merger. Sunrise believes that these properties do not fit with its
strategy. Specifically, Sunrise believes such properties are not located within
its target markets, cannot be repositioned easily as Sunrise facilities and
would not be able to achieve benefits of regional clustering. Consequently,
these assets are presented on the balance sheet as assets held for sale at their
estimated fair values less estimated costs to sell and operating losses before
sale. The operating results of these assets are not reflected in Sunrise's
consolidated operating results. As of December 31, 1999, Sunrise has sold one
development site that was acquired from Karrington and was originally classified
as held for sale.
Due to market conditions in the areas where the assets held for sale are
located, Sunrise elected in December 1999 to adjust downward the value assigned
to certain of these assets which resulted in an adjustment to the original
purchase price allocation of the Karrington acquisition. As a result of the
adjustment, the carrying value of assets held for sale decreased by $14.1
million from Sunrise's original estimated assigned fair value. The valuation
adjustments are reflected as a change in goodwill and the deferred tax accounts
that are associated with the Karrington acquisition.
The operating results of the properties since completion of the merger on
May 14, 1999 through December 31, 1999 are as follows (in thousands):

15. COMMITMENTS
Sunrise leases its corporate offices, regional offices, development offices
and warehouse space under various leases. During 1998, Sunrise entered into an
agreement to lease new office space for its corporate headquarters. The lease
commenced upon completion of the building in July 1999 and expires in July 2011.
The lease has an initial annual base rent of $1.2 million. The base rent
escalates approximately 2.5% per year in accordance with a base rent schedule.
In September 1999, Sunrise amended another corporate lease to increase the
amount of leased premises and extend the maturity date to October 2004. The
initial annual lease payments amount to $462,000, and the base rent is subject
to annual increases based on the consumer price index from a minimum of 2% to a
maximum cap of 3% per year. The warehouse lease has a term of seven years and
expires in May 2004. The initial annual base rent payments amount to $148,000,
subject to annual increases of 3%. Also required are an amortization rent of
$88,000 and a portion of operating expenses. Various other leases expire between
2001 and 2003.
Sunrise has also entered into operating leases for five facilities. Two
facilities commenced operations during 1997, two facilities commenced operations
in 1998, and the other facility commenced operations in 1999. In May 1999 in
connection with the acquisition of Karrington, Sunrise assumed six operating
leases for six assisted living properties and a ground lease. The operating
lease terms vary from 15-20 years, with two ten-year extension options. Sunrise
also has four other ground leases related to two facilities in operation and two
facilities under construction. Lease terms range from 30 to 99 years and are
subject to annual increases based on the consumer price index and/or stated
increases in the lease.
In December 1998, a subsidiary of Sunrise entered into a three-year
operating lease for six assisted living facilities. Sunrise has guaranteed the
payment of all obligations of its subsidiary under the lease. There are no
extension options, however Sunrise has the option, 120 days prior to the
expiration date of the lease, of either purchasing or selling all the leased
properties. If the company exercises its option to sell the properties and the
proceeds from the sale exceed the obligation under the lease, Sunrise is
entitled to the excess. However, if the proceeds from the sale are less than the
obligation under the lease, Sunrise is obligated to fund the difference. Sunrise
is responsible for the payment of real estate taxes, insurance and other
operating expenses. The lease requires Sunrise to maintain certain coverage
ratios, liquidity and net worth. These six leased properties were sublet to
Karrington until the acquisition of Karrington in May 1999.

16. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amount used for income tax purposes. On May 14, 1999, Sunrise
completed its acquisition of Karrington Health, Inc. through a tax-free,
stock-for-stock transaction. The acquisition was accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting. The purchase price was allocated to the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values.
Accordingly, the book basis of a majority of the property and equipment acquired
from Karrington exceeds its respective tax basis. A net deferred tax liability
of approximately $35.5 million was recorded at the time of purchase to account
for the Karrington acquisition.
The primary components of Sunrise's net deferred tax asset are as follows
(in thousands):

</TABLE>
At December 31, 1999, Sunrise had net operating loss carryforwards
available to offset future taxable income of approximately $43.7 million, which
expire from 2010 through 2019. This amount includes approximately $22.8 million
of net operating loss carryforwards acquired from Karrington, which are subject
to certain limitation on utilization. At December 31, 1999, Sunrise had
alternative minimum tax credits of approximately $479,000 available to offset
future federal tax liabilities. These tax credits do not expire.
Realization of the net deferred tax asset is dependent on generating
sufficient taxable income prior to expiration of the loss carryforwards. Sunrise
expects to fully utilize the loss carryforward prior to expiration. Therefore,
the valuation allowance at December 31, 1998 of $8.6 million was released in
1999, of which $6.0 million was credited directly to equity as it related to the
tax benefit of non-qualified stock options.

SUNRISE ASSISTED LIVING FOUNDATION
Paul and Teresa Klaassen, Sunrise's founders, operate two schools,
including day care centers, through a not-for-profit organization, Sunrise
Assisted Living Foundation, Inc. ("SALF"). SALF reimbursed Sunrise monthly for
use of office facilities and support services in the amounts of $84,000 in 1999,
$84,000 in 1998 and $68,000 in 1997. Such amounts are included in operating
revenue.
During 1999, a subsidiary of SALF provided certain health care services to
residents of Sunrise facilities located in Illinois. The SALF subsidiary entered
into various administrative, accounting and collection service agreements with
Sunrise affiliates. The service agreements allow for reimbursement of costs of
service plus a management fee. During 1999, Sunrise recognized $49,000 in
management fees. As of December 31, 1999, Sunrise owed SALF $0.4 million under
such service agreements.

GROUND LEASE
Sunrise has a 99 year ground lease with one of Sunrise's founders. The
ground lease expires in May 2085. The basic monthly rent is adjusted annually
based on the consumer price index. Rent expense under this lease was $262,000
for each of the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. Sunrise subleases
one-half of this ground lease to SALF. The sublease expires in May 2085 and
requires payments equal to 50% of all payments made by Sunrise under the ground
lease. Sublease rental income was $131,000 for each of the years ended December
31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. Lease expense is recorded net of the sublease income.
JOINT VENTURES
Sunrise has entered into unconsolidated joint venture arrangements with a
third party that is providing up to $70.8 million of the equity capital to
develop up to 37 projects in the United States, United Kingdom and Canada. A
director of Sunrise is a managing director in the third party that is providing
the equity capital and a former director of Sunrise is a general partner in the
third party. The joint ventures have acquired or assumed purchase contracts for
24 properties, 15 in the United States, two in the United Kingdom and seven in
Canada, on which the joint ventures intend to develop assisted living
facilities. Sunrise is providing management and development services to the
joint ventures on a contract-fee basis with rights to acquire the assets in the
future and has agreed to invest up to $4.3 million of equity capital in the
joint ventures. Sunrise recognized development fees from these joint ventures of
$12.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, in 1999 and 1998. As of December
31, 1999 and 1998, the third party had provided approximately $22.5 million and
$5.1 million, respectively, and Sunrise has provided $2.0 million and $0.4
million, respectively, of equity capital to the joint ventures.
18. PROFIT-SHARING PLAN
Sunrise has a profit-sharing plan (the "Plan") under Internal Revenue Code
Section 401(k). All employees of Sunrise are covered by the Plan and are
eligible to participate in the Plan after meeting certain eligibility
requirements. The Plan contains three elements -- employee salary contributions,
discretionary matching employer contributions and special discretionary employer
contributions. Deferred salary contributions are made through pre-tax salary
deferrals of between 1% and 16%. Prior to April 1, 1997, the Plan provided that
the employer contribute $0.25 for every dollar the employee contributes, up to
7% of the employee's annual compensation. In April 1997, Sunrise amended the
regular matching contributions to discretionary matching contributions. Matching
contributions made by Sunrise totaled $278,000, $177,000 and $121,000 during
1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. No special discretionary employer
contributions were made during these periods.
19. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following disclosures of estimated fair value were determined by
management, using available market information and valuation methodologies.
Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop
estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not
necessarily indicative of the amounts Sunrise could realize on disposition of
the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions or estimation
methodologies may have an effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The fair
values of the notes receivable and investments are discussed in Notes 4 and 5.

SUNRISE ASSISTED LIVING, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued
expenses, marketable securities, investments and other current assets and
liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair
values.
Fixed rate debt with an aggregate carrying value of $369.3 million,
excluding a $0.6 million loan discount, has an estimated aggregate fair value of
$337.0 million at December 31, 1999. Estimated fair value of fixed rate debt is
based on interest rates currently available to Sunrise for issuance of debt with
similar terms and remaining maturities. The estimated fair value of Sunrise's
variable rate debt is estimated to be approximately equal to its carrying value
of $332.2 million at December 31, 1999. The interest rate swap related to
floating rate debt (see Note 8) has an estimated fair value of $0.3 million at
December 31, 1999.
Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent
information available to management as of December 31, 1999. Although management
is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the reasonable fair
value amounts, these amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes
of these financial statements since December 31, 1999 and current estimates of
fair value may differ from the amounts presented herein.
20. INFORMATION ABOUT SUNRISE'S SEGMENTS

ARTICLE II
BORROWING
Section 2.1 The Loan
(a) The Lenders agree to lend to the Borrowers pursuant
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the Borrowers, jointly and
severally, agree to borrow on a revolving basis from the Lenders from time to
time the principal amount (the "Loan") not to exceed at any time outstanding
the lesser of (i) the Credit Facility Committed Amount, or (ii) the Borrowing
Base minus the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding.
(b) The obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loan
shall be evidenced by the Second Amended, Restated, Consolidated and Increased
Master Note of even date herewith (as amended, restated, substituted, extended,
renewed and otherwise modified from time to time, the "Note") payable to the
Administrative Agent in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A. The Note shall
bear interest and shall be repaid by the Borrowers in the manner and at the
times set forth in the Note.
(c) The conditions precedent for making an advance under
the Loan shall be as set forth in this Agreement. Sums borrowed and repaid may
be readvanced under the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Advances shall
be made by the Lenders on a pro rata basis based on their pro rata shares of
the Credit Facility Committed Amount.
(d) No advances may be made or be outstanding under the
Credit Facility and no Letters of Credit may be issued until and during such
times as there are at least eight (8) Eligible Projects in the Borrowing Base
of which 83% must be Pool A Projects. The Administrative Agent will prepare a
Borrowing Base Report (each a "Borrowing Base Report") in the form attached
hereto as EXHIBIT B which must be certified by the Borrowers listing for each
of the Eligible Projects (i) the applicable Deed of Trust Lien Amount, (ii) the
Costs Incurred to Date, and (iii) its status as of the most recent reporting
date as a Pool A, Pool B or Pool C Project within forty-five (45) days after
the end of each of the Borrowers' fiscal quarters. The Borrowing Base Report
will be based on the outcome of the requisition procedures hereinafter
described, appraisals obtained by the Administrative Agent and other information
on the Eligible Projects provided by the Borrowers or obtained by the
Administrative Agent. The Borrowing Base shall be computed based on the
Borrowing Base Report most recently prepared by the Administrative Agent. In the
event the Borrowers shall fail to furnish other current reports or information
as reasonably required by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Financing
Documents, or in the event the Administrative Agent believes that a Borrowing
Base Report is no longer accurate, the Administrative Agent may, in its
reasonable discretion exercised from time to time and without limiting its other
rights and remedies under the Financing Documents,
21
<PAGE> 28
upon notice to the Borrowers and the expiration of a cure period of five (5)
Banking Days, designate any Eligible Project as a Pool C Project or suspend the
making of or limit advances under the Loan. The Borrowing Base shall be subject
to reduction as a result of the following events: (i) the release of an Eligible
Project from the lien of the applicable Deed of Trust, (ii) by the change of
any Eligible Project's status as a Pool A or B Project to a Pool B or C Project
respectively as determined by the Administrative Agent quarterly, or (iii) the
change in appraised value of an Eligible Project pursuant to Section 7.28
Updated Appraisals. The Borrowing Base shall be subject to increase as a result
of the following events: (i) addition of Eligible Projects, (ii) increase in
the Costs Incurred to Date as determined by the Administrative Agent quarterly,
or (iii) the change of an Eligible Project's status as a Pool B or C Project to
a Pool A as determined by the Administrative Agent quarterly. The Borrowers may
request and the Requisite Lenders (as defined in the Agency Agreement) may in
their sole discretion agree to include as an Eligible Project a completed
Facility which a Borrower has acquired which meets the conditions precedent to
including a completed Facility as an Eligible Project.
(e) The Borrowers shall furnish to the Administrative
Agent such schedules, certificates, lists, records, reports, information and
documents as required by the Administrative Agent from time to time so that the
Administrative Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, determine the Borrowing
Base.
(f) If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the
Loan outstanding and the Outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations exceeds the
Borrowing Base, a borrowing base deficiency ("Borrowing Base Deficiency") shall
exist. Each time a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, the Borrowers shall within
three (3) Banking Days of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent either
pay the amount and/or add Eligible Projects to increase the Borrowing Base to
an amount which is at least equal to the aggregate principal amount outstanding
under the Loan and the Outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations.
(g) The current Borrowing Base Report is attached hereto
as EXHIBIT C.
(h) As of the date hereof the Borrower has designated
and the Lenders have accepted certain Facilities into the Borrowing Base as
Eligible Projects. This Agreement shall govern the procedures for verification
by the Administrative Agent of Costs Incurred to Date on each Eligible Project.
This Agreement shall also govern the terms, conditions and procedures under
which Eligible Projects may be added to the Borrowing Base.
(i) The Borrower will give notice to the Administrative
Agent in writing in advance of its intention to add a particular Facility as an
Eligible Project under the Credit Facility. Each Total Development Budget for
an Eligible Project shall include an interest reserve (the "Interest Reserve"),
and Operating Reserve, a hard cost contingency reserve of not less than five
percent (5%) of the total budgeted construction costs and a development fee
payable to SDI (the "Development Fee") and shall demonstrate to the Agent's
satisfaction in its sole discretion that the Eligible Project will be
designated as a Pool A Project.
Section 2.2 Procedure for Advances
22
<PAGE> 29
(a) The Administrative Agent will make advances from
time to time upon receipt of written request from the Borrowers in the form
designated by the Administrative Agent, provided that after giving effect to
the Borrowers' request, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan would not
exceed the lesser of the Credit Facility Committed Amount or the Borrowing Base
minus the aggregate face amounts of all Letters of Credit outstanding. Each
advance under the Loan shall be in an amount of not less than $1,000,000, and
in increments of $250,000 in excess thereof. Advances or the renewal of a
Eurodollar Period shall be requested by the Borrowers orally or in writing by
10:00 A.M. (Baltimore time) three (3) Banking Days prior to the Banking Day on
which the funds will be advanced. The Borrowers shall advise the Administrative
Agent at the time of such notice which Eurodollar Period they are selecting.
The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make any advance if at the
time such advance is requested and/or is proposed to be funded, there exists an
Event of Default or an event which upon notice or lapse of time or both would
constitute an Event of Default under the Financing Documents. If the Borrowers
fail to advise the Administrative Agent three (3) Banking Days in advance of
the expiration of a Eurodollar Period of its intention to either pay off such
portion of the Loan or renew the applicable Eurodollar Period, it shall be
assumed by the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Period is to be
renewed.
(b) In addition, if the Administrative Agent has reason
to believe a Default or an Event of Default has occurred, the Borrowers hereby
irrevocably authorize the Lenders to make advances of the Loan at any time and
from time to time, without further request from or notice to the Borrowers,
which the Lenders, in their sole and absolute discretion, deem necessary or
appropriate to protect the Lenders' interests under this Agreement or otherwise,
including, without limitation, advances of the Loan made to cover interest on
the Loan, fees, and/or Enforcement Costs, prior to, on, or after the
termination of this Agreement, regardless of whether the aggregate amount of
the advances of the Loan which the Lenders may make hereunder exceeds the
Credit Facility Committed Amount. The Lenders shall have no obligation
whatsoever to make any advance under this subsection and the making of one or
more advances under this subsection shall not obligate the Lenders to make
other similar advances. Any such advances will be evidenced by the Note secured
by the Collateral and the Deeds of Trust.
Section 2.3 Fees
The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent the following fees:
(a) Unused Line Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders beginning on the date set
forth below a quarterly revolving credit facility fee (the "Unused Line Fee")
in an amount equal to twenty-five (25) basis points per annum of the average
undisbursed portion of the "Unused Commitment Amount" for the applicable
quarter specified in the right-hand column below. The accrued and unpaid
portion of the Unused Line Fee shall be paid by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent as of the Credit Facility Closing Date and on the first
day of each fiscal quarter commencing October, 1999 and on the Revolving Credit
Termination Date. For purposes hereof "Average Outstandings" shall
23
<PAGE> 30
mean the average daily principal under the Note plus the average daily principal
amount of the aggregate face amounts of the Letters of Credit for the quarter
then ended.
<TABLE>

each fiscal quarter there- Amount less the Average
after Outstandings
</TABLE>
(b) Appraisal Fees. Upon the receipt of an appraiser's
invoice from the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall pay the fee of the
appraiser for an Eligible Project.
(c) Extension Fee. In the event the Revolving Credit
Expiration Date of the Credit Facility is extended for a twelve-month period
pursuant to the terms of Section 2.5 Extensions
Section 2.4 Interest Rate Matters
(a) Lender Tax Adjustment. Each payment made by the
Borrowers under the Note shall either (i) be exempt from, and be made without
reduction by reason of, any Lender Tax or (ii) to the extent that any such
payment shall be subject to any Lender Tax, be accompanied by an additional
payment by the Borrowers of such amount as may be necessary so that the net
amount received by each Lender (after deducting all applicable Taxes) is the
same as such Lender would have received had such payment not been subject to
such Lender Tax. Upon any payment of Lender Tax by the Borrowers, the Borrowers
shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days) furnish to the Administrative
Agent and applicable Lender such tax receipts, certificates an other evidence
of such payment as the Borrowers may have or the Administrative Agent or the
applicable Lender may reasonably request.
24
<PAGE> 31
(b) Inability to Determine Eurodollar Rate. In the event
that the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting
the London interbank market, quotation of Eurodollar Rates for any portion of
the Note are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant
maturities for the purpose of determining a Eurodollar Rate for any portion of
the principal sum, the Administrative Agent will give notice of such
determination to the Borrowers and each Lender at least one day prior to the
date of an advance or any subsequent Eurodollar Period for the Loan. If any
such notice is given, no Lender shall have any obligation to make any advance
or maintain any principal sum outstanding at a Eurodollar Rate. Until the
earlier of the date any such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative
Agent or the date when the Lenders and the Borrowers have mutually agreed upon
an alternate method of determining the rates of interest payable on the Loan,
as the case may be, the Borrowers shall not have the right to have additional
advances or maintain any portion of the Credit Facility at a Eurodollar Rate,
whereupon the Lenders and the Borrowers shall mutually agree upon an alternate
method of determining the rates of interest payable on the Loan or such
Lender's portion of the principal outstanding under all the Note shall be
immediately due and payable.
(c) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of
the Financing Documents to the contrary, in the event that it shall become
unlawful for any Lender to obtain funds in the London interbank market or for
such Lender to maintain the Loan at the Eurodollar Rate, then, by written
notice to the Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent, such Lender may
declare that advances will not thereafter be made or the Loan maintained by
such Lender hereunder at the Eurodollar Rate, whereupon the Lenders and the
Borrowers shall mutually agree upon an alternate method of determining the
rates of interest payable on the Loan or such Lender's portion of the principal
outstanding under the Note shall be immediately due and payable.
(d) Increased Costs and Reduced Return.
(i) If any event shall occur (whether in the form of
a reserve requirement (not included in the definition of the
Eurodollar Rate), exchange control regulations, governmental
charges, compliance with any guideline or request from any
central bank or other Governmental Authority, changes in the
London interbank market or the position of any Lender in such
market or otherwise) and the result of any such event is, in
such Lender's reasonable judgment, to increase the costs
which such Lender determines are attributable to its making
or maintaining the Loan at the Eurodollar Rate in excess of
those costs already in effect as of July 1, 1999, or its
obligation to make available the Loan at the Eurodollar
Rate or to reduce the amount of any sum received or
receivable by such Lender under the Note, then, within ten
(10) days after demand by such Lender, Borrowers hereby
agree to pay to such Lender such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased
cost or reduction.
(ii) In addition to any amounts payable pursuant to
Section (i), if any Lender shall have determined that the
applicability of any law, rule, regulation or
25
<PAGE> 32
guideline adopted pursuant to or arising out of the July
1988 report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulations
and Supervisory Practices entitled "International
Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards,"
or the adoption after the date hereof of any other law,
rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy,
or any change in any of the foregoing or in the enforcement
or interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing
by any court or any central bank or other Governmental
Authority, charged with the enforcement or interpretation
or administration thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or
any lending office of such Lender) or such Lender's holding
company with any request or directive regarding capital
adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any
such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or
would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's
holding company, if any, as a consequence of its making or
maintaining the Loan or its incurring any obligations under
this Agreement to a level below that which such Lender or
such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for
such applicability, adoption, change or compliance (taking
into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies
of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital
adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be
material, then, upon demand by such Lender, the Borrowers
hereby agree to pay to such Lender from time to time such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender
or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction
suffered.
(e) Notice of Amounts Payable to Lenders. If any Lender
shall seek payment of any amounts from Borrowers pursuant to this Section or
under Section 2.4 Interest Rate Matters, it shall notify the Borrowers and the
Administrative Agent of the amount payable by the Borrowers to such Lender
hereunder. A certificate of such Lender seeking payment setting forth in
reasonable detail the factual basis for and the computation of the amount
specified, shall be conclusive and binding on all parties for all purposes,
absent manifest error, as to the amounts owned. The Borrowers' obligations under
this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment
of the Obligations.
(f) Change in Basis Point Spread. Any change in the basis
point margin added to the Eurodollar Rate based on a change in the rating
pursuant to the terms of the Note shall take effect one (1) Banking Day
following notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders of such rate change.
Section 2.5 Extensions
At any time not later than thirty (30) days nor earlier than one
hundred twenty (120) days prior to the Revolving Credit Expiration Date or any
anniversary of the Facility Closing, the Borrowers may request that the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in their sole discretion,
26
<PAGE> 33
may agree to extend the Revolving Credit Expiration Date one or more times for
a period of twelve (12) months each.
Section 2.6 The Letter of Credit Facility
(a) Letters of Credit. Subject to and upon the provisions
of this Agreement, and as a part of the Credit Facility Committed Amount, the
Borrower may, upon the prior approval of the Administrative Agent, obtain
standby letters of credit (as the same may from time to time be amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified, each a "Letter of Credit" and collectively
the "Letters of Credit") from any Lender selected by the Borrowers from time to
time until the Banking Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date.
Each Letter of Credit shall be issued for a business purpose of any Borrower,
SALI or any Affiliate, provided that one or more Borrowers is a co-obligor with
SALI or any Affiliate for the Obligations arising under such Letter of Credit
and executes the applicable Letter of Credit Application to evidence such
liability. The Borrower will not be entitled to obtain a Letter of Credit
hereunder unless (a) after giving effect to the request, the outstanding
principal balance of the Loan and of the Letter of Credit Obligations would not
exceed the lesser of (i) the Credit Facility Amount, or (ii) the most current
Borrowing Base and (b) the sum of the aggregate face amount of the then
outstanding Letters of Credit (including the face amount of the requested
Letter of Credit) does not exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000).
(b) Letter of Credit Fees. Prior to or simultaneously
with the opening of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent or the other issuing Lender for the benefit of all the
Lenders, a letter of credit fee (each a "Letter of Credit Fee" and collectively
the "Letter of Credit Fees") in an amount equal to eighty (80) basis points per
annum of the amount of the Letter of Credit and a facing fee of 1/8th of 1% of
the amount of the Letter of Credit for the benefit of the issuing Lender only.
The Letter of Credit Fee but not the facing fee will be pro-rated if the
initial term of a Letter of Credit is less than twelve (12) months. Such Letter
of Credit Fees shall be paid upon the opening of the Letter of Credit and upon
each anniversary thereof, if any. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the
Lender any and all additional issuance, negotiation, processing, transfer or
other fees to the extent and as and when required by the provisions of any
Letter of Credit Agreement; such additional fees are included in and a part of
the "Fees" payable by the Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement.
(c) Terms of Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit
shall (a) be opened pursuant to a Letter of Credit Agreement, and (b) expire on
a date not later than the Banking Day preceding the Revolving Credit Expiration
Date; provided, however, if any Letter of Credit does have an expiration date
later than the Banking Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date, as
of the Banking Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date an advance of
the Loan shall be made by the Lender in the face amount of such Letter of Credit
(or Letters of Credit) and the proceeds thereof shall be deposited in an account
titled in the name of the Administrative Agent as trustee for the Borrower. The
proceeds of the trustee account referred to in the immediately preceding
sentence shall be held as collateral for the Letter of Credit (or Letters of
Credit) and in the event of a draw under the Letter of Credit (or Letters of
Credit), used to pay any such draw. The aggregate face amount of all Letters of
Credit at any one time outstanding and
27
<PAGE> 34
issued by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement, plus the amount of any unpaid Letter of Credit
Fees accrued or scheduled to accrue thereon, and less the aggregate amount of
all drafts issued under or purporting to have been issued under such Letters of
Credit that have been paid by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, is
herein called the "Outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations".
(d) Procedure for Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall
give the Administrative Agent written notice at least two (2) Banking Days
prior to the date on which a Letter of Credit is requested to be opened of
their request for a Letter of Credit. Such notice shall specify if a Lender
other than the Administrative Agent is requested to be the issuing bank for
such Letter of Credit shall be accompanied by a duly executed and delivered
Letter of Credit Agreement. Upon receipt of the Letter of Credit Agreement and
the Letter of Credit Fee, the Administrative Agent or other issuing Lender
shall process such Letter of Credit Agreement in accordance with its customary
procedures and open such Letter of Credit on the Banking Day specified in such
notice.
Section 2.7 Permitted Costs
Advances under the Borrowing Base shall be made available by the
Lenders pursuant to a Borrowing Base Report issued quarterly by the
Administrative Agent or more frequently in the Administrative Agent's
discretion and certified by the Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. That portion of the Borrowing Base composed of Costs Incurred to
Date shall be related to expenditures for each Eligible Facility described in
the applicable Total Development Budget. Each Total Development Budget may
include the cost of (i) the acquisition by the Borrowers of the Land which is
the site of such Facility, (ii) the construction on the Premises of a Facility
containing residential units and common facilities (iii) marketing, staffing
and similar pre-opening expenses and (iv) an Operating Reserve. Unless
otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent and to the extent specifically

authorized officer, officers or other Person or Persons designated by the
Primary Borrower to act from time to time on behalf of the Primary Borrower.

upon the written, oral or telephonic request any one or more of the Persons
who is from time to time a Responsible Officer of a Borrower under the

or liability for any errors, mistakes, and/or discrepancies in the oral,
telephonic, written or other transmissions of any instructions, orders, requests
and confirmations between the Administrative Agent and any one or more of the
Persons included in the term "Borrowers", any advance under the Loan or any
other transaction in connection with the provisions of this Agreement except
those resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct.
Section 2.10 Agreement Among Borrowers
Without implying any limitation on the joint and several nature of the
Obligations, the Administrative Agent agrees that, notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the Persons included in the term "Borrowers" may
create reasonable inter-company indebtedness between or among the Persons
included in the term "Borrowers" with respect to the allocation of the benefits
and proceeds of the advances under this Agreement. The Persons included in the
term "Borrowers" agree among themselves, and the Administrative Agent consents
to that agreement, that each such Person shall have rights of contribution from
all of the such Persons to the extent such Person incurs Obligations in excess
of the proceeds of the Loans received by, or allocated to purposes for the
direct benefit of, such Person. All such indebtedness and rights shall be, and
are hereby agreed by the Persons included in the term "Borrowers" to be,
subordinate in priority and payment to the indefeasible repayment in full in
cash of the Obligations, and, unless the Administrative Agent agrees in writing
otherwise, shall not be exercised or repaid in whole or in part until all of the
Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Person included in
the term "Borrowers" agrees that all of such inter-company indebtedness and
rights of contribution are part of the Collateral and secure the Obligations.

counterclaim, recoupment and offset between or among themselves arising on
account of that indebtedness and otherwise. Unless otherwise consented to in
writing by the Administrative Agent, no Person included in the term "Borrowers"
shall evidence the inter-company indebtedness or rights of
30

contribution by note or other instrument, and shall not secure such indebtedness
or rights of contribution with any Lien or security.
Section 2.11 Benefits to Borrowers
Each Person included in the term "Borrowers" hereby represents and
warrants to the Administrative Agent that each of them will derive benefits,
directly and indirectly, from each advance under the Loan, both in their
separate capacity and as a member of the integrated group to which each such
Person belongs and because the successful operation of the integrated group is
dependent upon the continued successful performance of the functions of the
integrated group as a whole, because (i) the terms of the consolidated
financing provided under this Agreement are more favorable than would otherwise
be obtainable by such Persons individually, and (ii) the additional
administrative and other costs and reduced flexibility associated with
individual financing arrangements which would otherwise be required if
obtainable would substantially reduce the value to such Persons of the
financing.
Section 2.12 Guaranty
(a) Each Person included in the term "Borrowers" hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Administrative Agent:
(i) the due and punctual payment in full (and not

accrued interest thereon, in each case when due and payable,
all according to the terms of this Agreement, the Note and
the other Financing Documents;
(ii) the due and punctual payment in full (and not
merely the collectibility) by the other Persons included in
the term "Borrowers" of all other sums and charges which may
at any time be due and payable in accordance with this
Agreement, the Note or any of the other Financing Documents;
(iii) the due and punctual performance by the other
Persons included in the term "Borrowers" of all of the other
terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Financing
Documents; and
(iv) all the other Obligations of the other Persons
included in the term "Borrowers".
(b) The obligations and liabilities of each Person
included in the term "Borrowers" as a guarantor under this Section shall be
absolute and unconditional and joint and several, irrespective of the
genuineness, validity, priority, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement,
the Note or any of the Financing Documents or any other circumstance which
might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or
guarantor. Each Person included in the term "Borrowers" in its capacity as a
guarantor expressly agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, without notice to or further assent of such
31
<PAGE> 38
Borrower and without in any way releasing, affecting or in any way impairing

grant any other indulgences under or with respect to any of
the Financing Documents;

provisions of any of the Financing Documents;

included in the term "Borrowers" as if this Section were not
in effect;
(x) effect any release, compromise or settlement
with any of the other Persons included in the term
"Borrowers", whether in their capacity as a Borrower or as
a guarantor under this Section or any other guarantor; and
(xi) provide debtor-in-possession financing or allow
use of cash collateral in proceedings under the Bankruptcy
Code, it being expressly agreed by all Persons included in the
term "Borrowers" that any such financing and/or use would be
part of the Obligations.
(c) The obligations and liabilities of each Person
included in the term "Borrowers", as guarantor under this Section shall be
primary, direct and immediate, shall not be subject to any counterclaim,
recoupment, set off, reduction or defense based upon any claim that
32
<PAGE> 39
such Person may have against any one or more of the other Persons included in
the term "Borrowers", the Administrative Agent and/or any other guarantor and
shall not be conditional or contingent upon pursuit or enforcement by the
Administrative Agent of any remedies it may have against Persons included in the
term "Borrowers" with respect to this Agreement, the Note or any of the other
Financing Documents, whether pursuant to the terms thereof or by operation of
law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent
shall not be required to make any demand upon any of the Persons included in the
term "Borrowers", or to sell the Collateral or otherwise pursue, enforce or
exhaust its or their remedies against the Persons included in the term
"Borrowers" or the Collateral either before, concurrently with or after pursuing
or enforcing its rights and remedies hereunder. Any one or more successive or
concurrent actions or proceedings may be brought against each Person included in
the term "Borrowers" under this Section, either in the same action, if any,
brought against any one or more of the Persons included in the term "Borrowers"
or in separate actions or proceedings, as often as the Administrative Agent may
deem expedient or advisable. Without limiting the foregoing, it is specifically
understood that any modification, limitation or discharge of any of the
liabilities or obligations of any one or more of the Persons included in the
term "Borrowers", any other guarantor or any obligor under any of the Financing
Documents, arising out of, or by virtue of, any bankruptcy, arrangement,
reorganization or similar proceeding for relief of debtors under federal or
state law initiated by or against any one or more of the Persons included in the
term "Borrowers", in their respective capacities as borrowers and guarantors
under this Section, or under any of the Financing Documents shall not modify,
limit, lessen, reduce, impair, discharge, or otherwise affect the liability of
each Borrower under this Section in any manner whatsoever, and this Section
shall remain and continue in full force and effect. It is the intent and purpose
of this Section that each Person included in the term "Borrowers" shall and does
hereby waive all rights and benefits which might accrue to any other guarantor
by reason of any such proceeding, and the Persons included in the term
"Borrowers" agree that they shall be liable for the full amount of the
obligations and liabilities under this Section regardless of, and irrespective
to, any modification, limitation or discharge of the liability of any one or
more of the Persons included in the term "Borrowers", any other guarantor or any
obligor under any of the Financing Documents, that may result from any such
proceedings.

limitation) the right of the Lenders to repayment of the amount of such
payment.
Section 4.8 Prepayment

Administrative Agent to an assignment by the Borrowers shall release the
Borrowers as the parties primarily obligated and liable under the terms of this
Agreement unless the Borrowers shall be released specifically by the

duly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its formation, has the power to own its property and to carry
on its business as now being conducted, and is duly qualified to do business

consent or approval of partners or members of, or lenders to, the Borrowers,
and no consent or approval of any Governmental Authority or any third party
payor on the part of the Borrowers, is required as a condition to the validity
or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents
executed and delivered by any of the Borrowers or to the payment or performance
by the Borrowers of the Obligations.

architects and inspectors as shall be necessary or desirable for said purpose;

or proceedings in connection with the development of the Land and the
construction of the Improvements and to take such actions and to require such
performance as the Lenders may deem necessary.

other person to take action to foreclose on the Property under the Deed of

reason of the release, regardless of consideration, of all or any part of the
Property, or by reason of any agreement or stipulation between any subsequent
owner of the Property and the Lenders extending the time of payment or
modifying the terms of the Financing Documents without first having obtained
the consent of the Borrowers; and in the latter event, the Borrowers shall
continue to be liable to make payments according to the terms of any such
extension or modification agreement, unless expressly released and discharged
in writing by the Lenders.

SEAL or Guarantor (as defined in the Financing Agreement) has a senior secured
debt rating from each of Moody's and Standard & Poors and not lower,
respectively, than BBB- and Baa3, the Spread shall be determined according to

BBB+ Baa1 110
BBB Baa2 120
BBB- Baa3 130
</TABLE>

Moody's, an implied senior secured debt rating will be used. The implied senior
secured debt rating for both Standard & Poors and Moody's will be equivalent to
the lower of either (A) one level above the lower of Standard & Poors and
Moody's senior unsecured debt rating, or (B) two levels above Standard & Poors
and Moody's subordinated debt rating.
In all cases where a Spread based on an actual or implied secured debt rating is
not available or is lower than above, the Spread shall be one hundred fifty
(150) basis points.
2. Payments and Maturity.
(a) Interest only on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be
due and payable on the fifteenth (15th) day of the first (1st) month following
the date hereof and on the fifteenth (15th) day of each and every month

endorsers. The Borrower and all endorsers, guarantors, and other parties who may
now or in the future be liable for payment of the Obligations hereby acknowledge
that all advances under the Loan will be made under and will be evidenced by
this Note.
11. Mandatory Arbitration. Any controversy or claim between or among the
parties hereto including but not limited to those arising out of or relating to
this Note or any related agreements or instruments, including any claim based on
or arising from an alleged tort, shall be determined by binding arbitration in
accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (or if not applicable, the
applicable state law), as promulgated from time to time by the Rules of Practice
and Procedure for the Arbitration of Commercial Disputes of Judicial Arbitration
and Mediation Services, Inc., predecessor in interest to Endispute, Inc., doing
business as "J.A.M.S./Endispute" and the "Special Rules" set forth below. In the
event of any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. Judgment upon any
arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any party to
this Note may bring an action, including a summary or expedited proceeding, to
compel arbitration of any controversy or claim to which this agreement applies
in any court having jurisdiction over such action. The foregoing
notwithstanding, in a claim pertaining to a Deed of Trust or Collateral located
in a state with "one-action" rule which might limit to Lenders' remedies, the
Administrative Agent shall have the right in its sole discretion to restrict the
application of this arbitration provision to the extent that it would otherwise
result in a limitation on the Lenders' remedies in such state.
(i) Special Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in Fairfax
County, Virginia and administered by J.A.M.S./Endispute who will appoint an
arbitrator pursuant to its rules of practice and procedure; if
J.A.M.S./Endispute is unable or legally precluded from administering the
arbitration, then the American Arbitration Association will serve. All
arbitration hearings will be commenced within ninety (90) calendar days of the
demand for arbitration; further, the arbitrator shall only, upon a showing of
cause, be permitted to extend the commencement of such hearing for up to an
additional sixty (60) calendar days.
(ii) Reservations of Rights. Nothing in this Note shall be deemed to
(i) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable statutes of limitation
or repose and any waivers contained in this Note; or (ii) be a waiver by
Administrative Agent of the protection afforded to it by 12 U.S.C. Sec. 91 or
any substantially equivalent state law; or (iii) limit the right of the
7
<PAGE> 8
Administrative Agent or the Lenders (A) to exercise self help remedies such as
(but not limited to) setoff, or (B) to foreclose against any real or personal
property collateral, or (C) to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary
remedies such as (but not limited to) injunctive relief or the appointment of a
receiver. The Administrative Agent or the Lenders may exercise such self help
rights, foreclose upon such property, or obtain such provisional or ancillary
remedies before, during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding
brought pursuant to this Note. At the Administrative Agent's or the Lenders'
option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be accomplished by any
of the following: the exercise of a power of sale under the deed of trust or
mortgage, or by judicial sale under the deed of trust or mortgage, or by
judicial foreclosure. Neither the exercise of self help remedies nor the
institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional or
ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any party,
including the claimant in any such action, to arbitrate the merits of the
controversy or claim occasioning resort to such remedies. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the Administrative Agent or the Lenders exercise
such self help remedies or other actions, the Borrower has not waived any of its
rights to seek legal or equitable relief to defend against the Administrative
Agent's or the Lenders' exercise of such self help remedies or other actions. No
provision in the Financing Documents regarding submission to jurisdiction and/or
venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be in derogation of the
provisions in any Financing Document for arbitration of any controversy or
claim.
(iii) Confidentiality. Any arbitration proceeding, award, findings of
fact, conclusions of law, or other information concerning such arbitration
matters shall be held in confidence by the parties and shall not be disclosed
except to each party's employees or agents as shall be reasonably necessary for
such party to conduct its business; provided, however, that either party may
disclose such information for auditing purposes by independent certified public
accountants, for complying with applicable governmental laws, regulations or
court orders, or that is or becomes part of the public domain through no breach
of this Note.
12. Consent to Jurisdiction. The Borrower irrevocably submits to the
jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of
Virginia over any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Note. The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
any objection that the Borrower may now or hereafter have to the laying the
venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court and any
claim that any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court has
been brought in an inconvenient forum. Final judgment in any such suit, action,
or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the
Borrower and may be enforced in any court in which the Borrower is subject to
jurisdiction by a suit upon such judgment provided that service of process is
effected upon the Borrower as provided in this Note or as otherwise permitted by
applicable law.
13. Service of Process.
(a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Wayne G.
Tatusko, Esquire of Watt, Tieder, Hoffar & Fitzgerald, 7929 Westpark Drive,
McLean, Virginia 22102, as the Borrower's authorized agent to accept and
acknowledge on the Borrower's behalf
8
<PAGE> 9
service of any and all process that may be served in any suit, action, or
proceeding instituted in connection with this Note in any state or federal court
sitting in the Commonwealth of Virginia. If such agent shall cease so to act,
the Borrower shall irrevocably designate and appoint without delay another such
agent in the Commonwealth of Virginia satisfactory to the Lenders and shall
promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence in writing of such agent's
acceptance of such appointment and its agreement that such appointment shall be
irrevocable.
(b) The Borrower hereby consents to process being served in any suit,
action, or proceeding instituted in connection with this Note by (i) the mailing
of a copy thereof by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested,
to the Borrower and (ii) serving a copy thereof upon the agent hereinabove
designated and appointed by the Borrower as the Borrower's agent for service of
process. The Borrower irrevocably agrees that such service shall be deemed to be
service of process upon the Borrower in any such suit, action, or proceeding.
Nothing in this Note shall affect the right of the Lenders to serve process in
any manner otherwise permitted by law and nothing in this Note will limit the
right of the Lenders otherwise to bring proceedings against the Borrower in the
courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions.
14. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE BORROWER AND THE LENDERS HEREBY WAIVE
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING NOT REQUIRED TO BE ARBITRATED PURSUANT
TO THE TERMS HEREOF TO WHICH THE BORROWER AND THE LENDERS, OR ANY OF THEM, MAY
BE PARTIES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO (A) THIS NOTE, (B) THE
OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS OR (C) ANY OF THE PROPERTY. IT IS AGREED AND
UNDERSTOOD THAT THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OF ALL CLAIMS
AGAINST ALL PARTIES TO SUCH ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING CLAIMS AGAINST
PARTIES WHO ARE NOT PARTIES TO THIS NOTE. THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY
AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY THE BORROWER, AND THE BORROWER HEREBY REPRESENTS THAT NO
REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT OR OPINION HAVE BEEN MADE BY ANY INDIVIDUAL TO INDUCE
THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR TO IN ANY WAY MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT. THE
BORROWER FURTHER REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS
NOTE AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, SELECTED OF
ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER
WITH COUNSEL.
15. Expenses. The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent on
demand by the Administrative Agent all costs and expenses incurred by the
Lenders in connection with the collection and enforcement of this Note,
including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and
all court costs.
16. Notices. Any notice, request, or demand to or upon the Borrower or the
Lenders shall be deemed to have been properly given or made when delivered in
accordance with Section 11.1 of the Financing Agreement.
9
<PAGE> 10
17. Miscellaneous. Each right, power, and remedy of the Lenders as provided
for in this Note or any of the other Financing Documents, or now or hereafter
existing under any applicable law or otherwise shall be cumulative and
concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy
provided for in this Note or any of the other Financing Documents or now or
hereafter existing under any applicable law, and the exercise or beginning of
the exercise by the Lenders of any one or more of such rights, powers, or
remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Lenders of
any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies. No failure or delay by the
Lenders to insist upon the strict performance of any term, condition, covenant,
or agreement of this Note or any of the other Financing Documents, or to
exercise any right, power, or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, shall
constitute a waiver of any such term, condition, covenant, or agreement or of
any such breach, or preclude the Lenders from exercising any such right, power,
or remedy at a later time or times. By accepting payment after the due date of
any amount payable hereunder, the Lenders shall not be deemed to waive the right
either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts payable under the
terms hereof or to declare an Event of Default for the failure to effect such
prompt payment of any such other amount. No course of dealing or conduct shall
be effective to amend, modify, waive, release, or change any provisions of this
Note.
18. Partial Invalidity. In the event any provision of this Note (or any
part of any provision) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality,
or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision (or remaining part of
the affected provision) of this Note; but this Note shall be construed as if
such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision (or part thereof) had not been
contained in this Note, but only to the extent it is invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable.
19. Captions. The captions herein set forth are for convenience only and
shall not be deemed to define, limit, or describe the scope or intent of this
Note.
20. Governing Law. The provisions of this Note shall be construed,
interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia as the same may be in effect from time to time.
3. It is expressly understood and agreed that the indebtedness evidenced by
the Original Note has not been extinguished or discharged hereby and is
consolidated herein. The Borrower and/or the Administrative Agent agree that the
execution of this Note is not intended and shall not cause or result in a
novation with regard to the Original Note.
4. This Note may be executed in one or more counterparts each of which
shall constitute an original for all purposes; provided, however, that all such
counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

who are or shall be from time to time participating as lenders hereunder
pursuant to the Agency Agreement, as hereinafter defined (collectively with the

INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT
A. As evidenced by the terms of the Second Amended, Restated and Increased
Promissory Note dated July 29, 1999, from the Borrowers other than the
Additional Borrowers (as hereinafter defined), jointly and severally, as makers,
to the Lender, as payee (such Second Amended, Restated and Increased Promissory
Note, together with all modifications thereto, extensions or renewals thereof
and substitutions therefor being hereinafter referred to as the
<PAGE> 23
"Note"), the Borrowers other than the Additional Borrowers became indebted unto
the Lender for a loan in the maximum principal amount at any one time
outstanding of $400,000,000 (the "Credit Facility" or the "Loan"). Pursuant to
their respective Additional Borrower Joinder Supplements each of the Additional
Borrowers became co-borrowers under the Note and jointly and severally liable
with the other Borrowers for the obligations under the Loan.
B. The Loan is advanced pursuant to the terms of and secured as provided in
the Second Amended and Restated Financing and Security Agreement dated July 29,
1999 executed by the Borrowers (the "Existing Financing Agreement").
C. The Borrowers have applied to the Lenders to modify certain terms an
conditions of the Existing Financing Agreement and of the Second Amended and
Restated Guaranty of Payment Agreement dated July 29, 1999 by Sunrise Assisted
Living, Inc. (the "Guarantor") for the benefit of the Lenders (the "Existing
Guaranty"). The Lenders have agreed on the condition, among others that the
Existing Financing Agreement and the Existing Guaranty be amended and restated
in their entirety pursuant to the terms of the Third Amended and Restated
Financing and Security Agreement of even date herewith by and among the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (as amended, modified, restated, renewed
or substituted, the "Financing Agreement") and the Third Amended and Restated
Guaranty of Payment Agreement of even date herewith by the Guarantor for the
benefit of the Lenders (as amended, modified, restated, renewed or substituted,
the "Guaranty").
D. The Lenders have agreed to make available the Credit Facility upon the
conditions that this Agreement amending the interest rate applicable to the Note
be executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent.
AGREEMENTS
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for the sum of One
Dollar ($1.00) and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency whereof are hereby acknowledged, the Borrowers and the Lender do
hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:
1. Incorporation of Recitals. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that
the recitals hereinabove set forth are true and correct in all respects and that
the same are incorporated herein and made a part hereof.
2. Outstanding Obligations. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree (a)
that the outstanding principal balance of the Note as of March 14, 2000 is
$238,200,000, and (b) that the unpaid principal balance of the Note, together
with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is due and owing subject to the terms
of repayment hereinafter set forth, without defense or offset.
3. Interest Rate. Paragraph 1 (Interest) on page 3 of the Note is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety as follows and shall be effective as of the
date first above written:
2
<PAGE> 24
1. Interest. Interest on portions of the outstanding Principal Sum
shall accrue and be payable for periods of thirty (30) days each or
periods of seven (7) days each (each a "Eurodollar Period") at a fixed
rate for such Eurodollar Period equal to the sum of (i) Eurodollar Rate
(as defined in the Financing Agreement), which rate shall be adjusted
for any Federal Reserve Board reserve requirements imposed upon the
Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders from time to time, plus (ii)
one hundred seventy five (175) basis points per annum. The Eurodollar
Rate determined pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in effect
to the end of the applicable Eurodollar Period. Interest payable
hereunder shall also be subject to the conditions set forth in Section
2.4 of the Financing Agreement.
No more than six (6) different Eurodollar Periods may be in effect at
any one time provided that not more than one (1) Eurodollar Period may
be a seven day Eurodollar Period. Interest shall be computed for the
actual number of days which have elapsed from the date of each advance
of a portion of the Principal Sum calculated on the basis of a 365-day
year.
4. Continuation of Loan Terms. Except as otherwise expressly set forth
below, the outstanding principal balance of the Note shall continue to be repaid
on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Note and the other
documents evidencing the Loan. All capitalized terms used but not defined in
this Agreement shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Financing
Documents.
5. Continuing Agreements; Novation. Except as expressly modified hereby and
by the Financing Agreement and the Guaranty, the parties hereto ratify and
confirm each and every provision of the Note, and each of the other Financing
Documents as if the same were set forth herein. In the event that any of the
terms and conditions in the Note or in any of the other Financing Documents
conflict in any way with the terms and provisions hereof, the terms and
provisions hereof shall prevail. The parties hereto covenant and agree that the
execution of this Agreement is not intended to and shall not cause or result in
a novation with regard to the Note, the Financing Agreement, the Guaranty and/or
the other Financing Documents and that the existing indebtedness of the
Borrowers to the Lender evidenced by the Note is continuing, without
interruption, and has not been discharged by a new agreement.
6. Entire Agreement. NO STATEMENTS, AGREEMENTS OR REPRESENTATIONS, ORAL OR
WRITTEN, WHICH MAY HAVE BEEN MADE TO ANY OF THE BORROWERS OR TO ANY EMPLOYEE OR
AGENT OF THE BORROWERS, EITHER BY THE LENDER OR BY ANY EMPLOYEE, AGENT OR BROKER
ACTING ON THE LENDER'S BEHALF, WITH RESPECT TO THE MODIFICATION OF THE LOAN,
SHALL BE OF ANY FORCE OR EFFECT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT,
AND ALL PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND REPRESENTATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE MODIFICATION OF
THE LOAN ARE MERGED HEREIN.

ARTICLE I
THE GUARANTY
Section 1.1 Recitals.
The Recitals set forth above are incorporated into this Agreement by
reference.
Section 1.2 Guaranty.
The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the
Lenders:
(a) the due and punctual payment in full (and not merely the
collectibility) of the principal of the Note and the interest thereon, in each
case when due and payable, whether on any installment payment date or at the
stated or accelerated maturity, all according to the terms of the Note and the
other Financing Documents;
(b) the due and punctual payment in full (and not merely the
collectibility) of all Obligations and other sums and charges which may at any
time be due and payable in accordance with, or secured by, the Note or any of
the other Financing Documents;
2
<PAGE> 3
(c) the due and punctual performance of all of the other terms,
covenants and conditions contained in the Financing Documents; and
(d) all indebtedness, obligations and liabilities of any kind and
nature of the Borrowers to the Lenders, whether now existing or hereafter
created or arising, direct or indirect, matured or unmatured, and whether
absolute or contingent, joint, several or joint and several, and howsoever
owned, held or acquired.
Section 1.3 Guaranty Unconditional.
The obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor under this Agreement
shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the genuineness, validity,
priority, regularity or enforceability of the Note or any of the Financing
Documents or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor. The Guarantor expressly accepts
the terms and conditions of the Note and the other Financing Documents. The
Guarantor expressly agrees that the Lenders may, in their sole and absolute
discretion, without notice to or further assent of the Guarantor and without in
any way releasing, affecting or in any way impairing the obligations and
liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder:
(a) waive compliance with, or any defaults under, or grant any
other indulgences under or with respect to any of the Financing Documents;
(b) modify, amend, change or terminate any provisions of any of
the Financing Documents;
(c) grant extensions or renewals of or with respect to the Note or
any of the other Financing Documents;
(d) effect any release, subordination, compromise or settlement in
connection with the Note or any of the other Financing Documents;
(e) agree to the substitution, exchange, release or other
disposition of the Collateral or any part thereof, or any other collateral for
the Loans or to the subordination of any lien or security interest therein;
(f) make advances for the purpose of performing any term,
provision or covenant contained in the Note or any of the other Financing
Documents with respect to which the Borrowers shall then be in default;
(g) make future advances to the Borrowers pursuant to the
Financing Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents;
(h) assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer the Note,
any of the other Financing Documents or this Agreement or any interest therein;
(i) deal in all respects with the Borrowers as if this Agreement
were not in effect; and
3
<PAGE> 4
(j) effect any release, compromise or settlement with any of the
Guarantor or any other guarantor.
Section 1.4 Guaranty Primary.
The obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor under this Agreement
shall be primary, direct and immediate, shall not be subject to any
counterclaim, recoupment, set off, reduction or defense based upon any claim
that the Guarantor may have against the Borrowers, the Lenders and/or any other
guarantor and shall not be conditional or contingent upon pursuit or enforcement
by the Lenders of any remedies it may have against the Borrowers with respect to
the Note or any of the other Financing Documents, whether pursuant to the terms
thereof or by operation of law. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Lenders shall not be required to make any demand upon the
Borrowers, or to sell the Collateral or otherwise pursue, enforce or exhaust
their remedies against the Borrowers or the Collateral either before,
concurrently with or after pursuing or enforcing their rights and remedies
hereunder. Any one or more successive or concurrent actions or proceedings may
be brought against the Guarantor under this Agreement, either in the same
action, if any, brought against the Borrowers or in separate actions or
proceedings, as often as the Lenders may deem expedient or advisable. Without
limiting the foregoing, it is specifically understood that any modification,
limitation or discharge of any of the liabilities or obligations of the
Borrowers or any other obligor under any of the Financing Documents, arising out
of, or by virtue of, any bankruptcy, arrangement, reorganization or similar
proceeding for relief of debtors under federal or state law initiated by or
against the Borrowers or the Guarantor or any obligor under any of the Financing
Documents shall not modify, limit, lessen, reduce, impair, discharge, or
otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder in any manner
whatsoever, and this Agreement shall remain and continue in full force and
effect. It is the intent and purpose of this Agreement that the Guarantor shall
and does hereby waive all rights and benefits which might accrue to any other
guarantor by reason of any such proceeding, and the Guarantor agrees that it
shall be liable for the full amount of the obligations and liabilities under
this Agreement, regardless of, and irrespective to, any modification, limitation
or discharge of the liability of the Borrowers, any other guarantor or any
obligor under any of the Financing Documents, that may result from any such
proceedings.
Section 1.5 Certain Waivers by the Guarantor.
The Guarantor hereby unconditionally, irrevocably and expressly waives:
(a) presentment and demand for payment of the principal of or
interest on the Note and protest of non-payment;
(b) notice of acceptance of this Agreement and of presentment,
demand and protest thereof;
(c) notice of any default hereunder or under the Note or any of
the other Financing Documents and notice of all indulgences;
4
<PAGE> 5

of the indebtedness guaranteed by this Agreement;
(e) demand for observance, performance or enforcement of any of
the terms or provisions of this Agreement, the Note or any of the other
Financing Documents;

administration of all indebtedness guaranteed by this Agreement, except errors
and omissions resulting from acts of bad faith;
(g) any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of the
assets of the Borrowers;
(h) any act or omission of the Lenders (except acts or omissions
in bad faith) which changes the scope of the Guarantor's risk hereunder; and
(i) all other notices and demands otherwise required by law which
the Guarantor may lawfully waive.
Section 1.6 Reimbursement for Expenses.
In the event the Lenders shall commence any action or proceeding for the
enforcement of this Agreement, then the Guarantor will reimburse the Lenders,
promptly upon demand, for any and all reasonable expenses incurred by the
Lenders in connection with such action or proceeding including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees together with interest thereon at the
Post-Default Rate.
Section 1.7 Events of Default.
The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall
constitute an "Event of Default" under the provisions of this Agreement
(individually, an "Event of Default" and collectively, the "Events of Default"):
(a) The failure of the Guarantor to pay and/or perform any of the
Obligations as and when due and payable in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement and such failure continues for five (5) calendar days after
written notice thereof to the Guarantor by the Administrative Agent, except with
regard to payment of amounts due at maturity, whether by acceleration or
otherwise, for which no notice or cure period shall be required to be given.
(b) Any representation or warranty made in this Agreement or in
any report, statement, schedule, certificate, opinion (including any opinion of
counsel for the Guarantor), financial statement or other document furnished in
connection with this Agreement, shall prove to have been false or misleading
when made (or, if applicable, when reaffirmed) in any material respect.
5

with any covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Agreement other than

Agent, unless the nature of the failure is such that (a) it cannot be cured
within the thirty (30) day period, and (b) the Guarantor institutes corrective
action within the thirty (30) day period and (c) the Guarantor diligently
pursues such action and completes the cure within ninety (90) days.
(e) A default shall occur under any of the other Financing

against it in any proceeding under any such law, or take corporate action for
the purposes of effecting any of the foregoing, or (vi) by any act indicate its
consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such proceeding or the
appointment of any receiver of or trustee for any of its property, or suffer any
such receivership, trusteeship or proceeding to continue undischarged for a
period of sixty (60) days, or (vii) by any act indicate its consent to, approval
of or acquiescence in any order, judgment or decree by any court of competent

the operation of a material portion of the Guarantor's business or the use or
disposition of a material portion of the Guarantor's assets.
(g) (i) An order for relief shall be entered in any involuntary

decree under any other Law is entered by any court of competent jurisdiction or
by any other Governmental Authority on the application of a Governmental
Authority or of a Person other than the Guarantor (A) adjudicating the Guarantor

the Guarantor, or of a material portion of the Guarantor's assets, or (C)
enjoining, prohibiting or otherwise limiting the operation of a material portion
of the Guarantor's businesses or the use or disposition of a material portion of
the Guarantor's assets, and such order, judgment or decree continues unstayed
and in effect for a period of thirty (30) days from the date entered.
(h) Unless adequately insured in the reasonable opinion of the

process under which or pursuant to which such judgment was entered, or to secure
a stay of execution pending appeal of such judgment.
(i) Default which continues beyond any applicable grace period
shall be made under any obligation of or guaranteed by the Guarantor equal to or
greater than $1,000,000, if the effect of such default is to accelerate the
maturity of such obligation or to permit the holder or obligee thereof to cause
such obligation to become due prior to its stated maturity.
(j) Default shall be made under any obligation equal to or greater
than $1,000,000 of a consolidated Affiliate, which is otherwise non-recourse to
the Guarantor, if the holder or obligee of such obligation has commenced action

(k) If the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable discretion,
determines in good faith that a Material Adverse Change has occurred in the

(n) Any execution or attachment shall be levied against any

after the same shall have been levied.
Section 1.8 Rescission of Election to Accelerate.
In the event the Administrative Agent shall elect to accelerate the
maturity of the Note as to the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, such election may be rescinded by written acknowledgment to that
effect by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the acceptance of a
partial payment on account of the Note shall not alone effect or rescind such
election.
Section 1.9 Subordination; Subrogation.
In the event the Guarantor shall advance any sums to the Borrowers, or in
the event the Borrowers has heretofore or shall hereafter become indebted to the
Guarantor before the Obligations have been paid in full, all such advances and
indebtedness shall be subordinate in all respects to the Obligations (the
"Guarantor Subordinated Debt"). Any payment to the Guarantor after the
occurrence of an Event of Default on account of the Guarantor Subordinated Debt
shall be collected and received by the Administrative Agent or the Guarantor in
trust for the Lenders and shall be paid over to the Lenders on account of the
Obligations without impairing or releasing the obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder.
7
<PAGE> 8
Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the
Guarantor shall not ask, demand, receive, accept, sue for, set off, collect or
enforce the Guarantor Subordinated Debt or any collateral and security therefor.
The Guarantor represents and warrants to the Lenders that the Guarantor
Subordinated Debt is unsecured and agrees not to receive or accept any
collateral or security therefor without the prior written permission of the
Administrative Agent. The Guarantor shall assign, transfer, hypothecate or
dispose of the Guarantor Subordinated Debt while this Agreement is in effect. In
the event of any sale, receivership, insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, or
assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any proceeding by or against the
Borrowers for any relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other laws
relating to the relief of debtors, readjustment of indebtedness,
reorganizations, compositions or extensions, then and in any such event any
payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or
other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon, or with respect to,
all or any part of the Guarantor Subordinated Debt or otherwise shall be paid or
delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application to the
obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor under this Agreement (whether due
or not due and in such order and manner as the Administrative Agent may
determine in the exercise of its sole discretion) until the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder shall have been fully paid and satisfied. The Guarantor
hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Lenders to demand, sue for,
collect and receive every such payment or distribution on account of the
Guarantor Subordinated Debt and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and
take such other proceedings in the name of the Lenders or in the names of the
Guarantor or otherwise, as the Lenders may deem necessary or advisable to carry
out the provisions of this Agreement. The Guarantor hereby agrees to execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent such powers of attorney, assignments,
endorsements or other instruments as may be requested by the Administrative
Agent in order to enable the Lenders to enforce any and all claims upon, or with
respect to, the Guarantor Subordinated Debt, and to collect and receive any and
all payments or distributions which may be payable or deliverable at any time
upon or with respect thereto.
So as to secure the performance by the Guarantor of the provisions of
this Agreement, the Guarantor assigns, pledges and grants to the Lenders a
security interest in, and lien on, the Guarantor Subordinated Debt, all proceeds
thereof and all and any security and collateral therefor. Upon the request of
the Administrative Agent, the Guarantor shall endorse, assign and deliver to the
Administrative Agent all notes, instruments and agreements evidencing, securing,
guarantying or made in connection with the Guarantor Subordinated Debt.
Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, if the Guarantor is or at any time becomes an "insider" (as defined
from time to time in Section 101 of the United States Bankruptcy Code) with
respect to the Borrowers, or any other guarantor, then the Guarantor irrevocably
and absolutely waives any and all rights of contribution, indemnification,
reimbursement, subrogation or any similar rights against the Borrowers and/or
any such guarantor, with respect to this Guaranty (including any right of
subrogation) whether such rights arise under an express or implied contract or
by operation of law. It is the intention of the Guarantor that it shall not be
deemed to be a "creditor" (as defined in Section 101 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code) of the Borrowers, or any such guarantor, by reason of the
existence of
8
<PAGE> 9
this Agreement in the event that the Borrowers or any such guarantor, becomes a
debtor in any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code. This waiver is
given to induce the Lenders to make the Loans to the Borrowers.
Section 1.10 Mandatory Arbitration.
Any controversy or claim between or among the parties hereto including
but not limited to those arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any
related agreements or instruments, including any claim based on or arising from
an alleged tort, shall be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with
the Federal Arbitration Act (or if not applicable, the applicable state law), as
promulgated from time to time by the Rules of Practice and Procedure for the
Arbitration of Commercial Disputes of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation
Services, Inc., predecessor in interest to Endispute, Inc., doing business as
"J.A.M.S./Endispute" and the "Special Rules" set forth below. In the event of
any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. Judgment upon any
arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any party to
this Guaranty may bring an action, including a summary or expedited proceeding,
to compel arbitration of any controversy or claim to which this agreement
applies in any court having jurisdiction over such action. The foregoing
notwithstanding, in a claim pertaining to a Deed of Trust or Collateral located
in a state with "one-action" rule which might limit to Lenders' remedies, the
Administrative Agent shall have the right in its sole discretion to restrict the
application of this arbitration provision to the extent that it would otherwise
result in a limitation on the Lenders' remedies in such state.
(i) Special Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in Fairfax County,
Virginia and administered by J.A.M.S./Endispute who will appoint an arbitrator
pursuant to its rules of practice and procedure; if J.A.M.S./Endispute is unable
or legally precluded from administering the arbitration, then the American
Arbitration Association will serve. All arbitration hearings will be commenced
within ninety (90) calendar days of the demand for arbitration; further, the
arbitrator shall only, upon a showing of cause, be permitted to extend the
commencement of such hearing for up to an additional sixty (60) calendar days.
(ii) Reservations of Rights. Nothing in this Guaranty shall be deemed to
(i) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable statutes of limitation
or repose and any waivers contained in this Guaranty; or (ii) be a waiver by the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders of the protection afforded to it by 12
U.S.C. Sec. 91 or any substantially equivalent state law; or (iii) limit the
right of Lender (A) to exercise self help remedies such as (but not limited to)
setoff, or (B) to foreclose against any real or personal property collateral, or
(C) to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary remedies such as (but not
limited to) injunctive relief or the appointment of a receiver. The Lenders may
exercise such self help rights, foreclose upon such property, or obtain such
provisional or ancillary remedies before, during or after the pendency of any
arbitration proceeding brought pursuant to this Guaranty. At the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders' option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may
be accomplished by any of the following: the exercise of a power of sale under
the deed of trust or mortgage, or by judicial sale under the deed of trust or
mortgage, or by judicial foreclosure. Neither the exercise of self help remedies
nor the institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional
or ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any party,
including the claimant in
9
<PAGE> 10
any such action, to arbitrate the merits of the controversy or claim occasioning
resort to such remedies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the
Lender exercises such self help remedies or other actions, the Guarantor has not
waived any of its rights to seek legal or equitable relief to defend against the
Administrative Agent's or Lenders' exercise of such self help remedies or other
actions. No provision in the Financing Documents regarding submission to
jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be
in derogation of the provisions in any Financing Document for arbitration of any
controversy or claim.
(iii) Confidentiality. Any arbitration proceeding, award, findings of
fact, conclusions of law, or other information concerning such arbitration
matters shall be held in confidence by the parties and shall not be disclosed
except to each party's employees or agents as shall be reasonably necessary for
such party to conduct its business; provided, however, that either party may
disclose such information for auditing purposes by independent certified
accounts, for complying with applicable governmental laws, regulations or court
orders, or that is or becomes part of the public domain through no breach of
this Agreement.

investigations pending or, so far as the Guarantor knows, threatened before or
by any court, arbitrator or any Governmental Authority which, in any one case or

the Guarantor has not disclosed to the Lenders in writing prior to the date of
this Agreement which constitutes a Material Adverse Change with respect to the
Guarantor or in the future could, in the reasonable opinion of the Guarantor,
constitute a Material Adverse Change with respect to the Guarantor.

effect.

respective successors and assigns.

Agreement.

of the Financing Documents may be executed elsewhere. The Lenders acknowledge,
however, that remedies under certain of the Financing Documents which relate to

to be an original and all taken together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.
Section 4.11 Headings.
The headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience only,
shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose, and shall
not be deemed to affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions
hereof.
Section 4.12 No Partnership - Third Parties.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed in a manner to
create any relationship between the Guarantor and any of the Lenders other than
the relationship of guarantor and lenders and the Guarantor and the Lenders
shall not be considered partners or co-venturers for any purpose. The terms and
provisions of this Agreement are for the benefit of the Lenders and their
respective successors, assigns, endorsees and transferees and all persons
claiming under or through it and no other person shall have any right or cause
of action on account thereof. The Lenders have no obligation to make any advance
of any Loans for the benefit of the Guarantor; the Guarantor has no beneficial
interest in the proceeds of the Loans or rights or claims under the Financing

forth in the Financing Agreement.
Section 4.13 Entire Agreement.
The Financing Documents shall completely and fully supersede all prior
agreements, both written and oral, between the Lenders and the Borrowers

shall hereafter have any rights under such prior agreements but shall look
solely to the Financing Documents for definition and determination of all of
their respective rights, liabilities and responsibilities relating to the
Obligations.
Section 4.14 Consent to Jurisdiction.
The Guarantor irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any state or
federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Virginia over any suit, action, or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The Guarantor
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that
it may now or hereafter have to laying the venue of any such suit, action, or
proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action,
or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. Final judgment in any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any
such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Guarantor and may be
enforced in any court to the jurisdiction of which the Guarantor is subject, by
a suit upon such judgment provided that service of process is effected upon the
Guarantor in a manner specified in this Agreement or as otherwise permitted by
applicable law.
Section 4.15 Service of Process.
The Guarantor hereby consents to process being served in any suit,
action, or proceeding instituted in connection with this Agreement by (a) the

copy thereof upon Wayne G. Tatusko, Esquire, 7929 Westpark Drive, McLean,
Virginia 22102, the agent hereby designated and appointed as its agent for
service of process. The Guarantor irrevocably agrees that such service (i) shall
be deemed in every respect to be effective service of process upon it in any
such suit, action, or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon the Guarantor.
Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of the Lenders to serve process
in any manner otherwise permitted by law or limit the right of the Lenders
otherwise to bring proceedings against the Guarantor in the courts of any other
jurisdiction or jurisdictions.
Section 4.16 WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.
THE GUARANTOR AND THE LENDERS HEREBY JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING NOT REQUIRED TO BE ARBITRATED PURSUANT TO THE
TERMS HEREOF TO WHICH THE GUARANTOR AND THE LENDERS, OR ANY OF THEM, MAY BE
PARTIES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO (A) THIS AGREEMENT, (B) ANY

WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OF
22
<PAGE> 23
ALL CLAIMS AGAINST ALL PARTIES TO SUCH ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING CLAIMS
AGAINST PARTIES WHO ARE NOT PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT.
This waiver is knowingly, willingly and voluntarily made by the Guarantor
and the Lenders, and the Guarantor and the Lenders hereby represent that no
representations of fact or opinion have been made by any individual to induce
this waiver of trial by jury or to in any way modify or nullify its effect. The
Guarantor and the Lenders further represent that they have been represented in
the signing of this Agreement and in the making of this waiver by independent
legal counsel, selected of their own free will, and that they have had the
opportunity to discuss this waiver with counsel.
Section 4.17 Liability of the Lenders.
The Guarantor hereby agrees that the Lenders shall not be chargeable for
any negligence, mistake, act or omission of any accountant, examiner, agency or
attorney employed by the Lenders in making examinations, investigations or
collections, or otherwise in perfecting, maintaining, protecting or realizing
upon any lien or security interest or any other interest in the Collateral or
other security for the Obligations.
By inspecting the Collateral or any other properties of the Borrowers or
by accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or
fulfilled by the Borrowers or to be given to the Lenders pursuant to this
Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents, the Lenders shall not be
deemed to have warranted or represented the condition, sufficiency, legality,
effectiveness or legal effect of the same, and such acceptance or approval shall
not constitute any warranty or representation with respect thereto by the
Lenders.
Section 4.18 Reinstatement.
If at any time any payment, or portion thereof, made by, or for the
account of, the Borrowers or the Guarantor on account of any of the obligations
and liabilities arising hereunder or under any of the Financing Documents is set
aside by any court or trustee having jurisdiction as a voidable preference or
fraudulent conveyance or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Lenders
to the Borrowers or to the Guarantor under any insolvency, bankruptcy or other
federal and/or state laws or as a result of any dissolution, liquidation or
reorganization of the Borrowers or upon, or as a result of, the appointment of
any receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee, or similar officer for,
the Borrowers or any substantial part of its properties or assets, the Guarantor
hereby agrees that this Agreement shall continue and remain in full force and
effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, all as though such payment(s) had
not been made.
Section 4.19 Complete and Final Expression of Agreement.
This Agreement is intended by the Lenders and the Guarantor to be a
complete, exclusive and final expression of the agreements contained herein. No
course of dealing, course of performance or trade usage, and no parol evidence
of any nature, shall be used to supplement or
23

modify any terms of this Agreement. The Lenders and the Guarantor further agrees
that there are no conditions to the full effectiveness of this Agreement, unless
otherwise expressly stated herein. The Guarantor has unconditionally delivered
this Agreement to the Administrative Agent, and failure to sign this or any
other guarantee by any other person shall not discharge the liability of the
Guarantor hereunder.

N.A., d/b/a NATIONSBANK, N.A., successor by merger to NationsBank, N.A., as the
administrative agent ("Administrative Agent") for itself and for certain
additional lenders (collectively with the Administrative Agent, the "Lenders")
who are or shall be from time to time participating as lenders in a bank group
pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated Agency Agreement of even dated
herewith (as amended, extended or substituted from time to time, the "Agency
Agreement").
RECITALS
A. In connection with a credit facility (the " Existing Credit Facility")
provided by Lenders to Sunrise East Assisted Living Limited Partnership, a
Virginia limited partnership ("SEAL") in the amount of $250,000,000, as
evidenced by the Amended, Restated, Consolidated and Increased Master Promissory
Note made December 23, 1997 by SEAL to Administrative Agent (as amended,
restated or substituted from time to time, the "Original Note"), as governed by
the Amended and Restated Financing and Security Agreement dated December 23,
1997 between SEAL and Administrative Agent (as amended, restated or substituted
from time to time, the "Existing Financing Agreement"), and as further governed
by the Amended and Restated Master Construction Loan Agreement dated December
23, 1997 between SEAL and Administrative Agent (as amended, restated or
substituted from time to time, the "Construction Agreement"), the Guarantor
provided the Administrative Agent, among other documents, with a Master Guaranty
of Performance dated December 23, 1997 (as amended, restated or substituted from
time to time, the "Performance Guaranty") to secure the construction of certain
Eligible Properties.
B. As of December 30, 1998 Sunrise SEAL, L.L.C., a Virginia limited
liability company ("Sunrise SEAL") was added as a borrower under the Credit
Facility pursuant to amendments to the Original Note, the Existing Financing
Agreement and the Construction Agreement.
C. Certain Eligible Projects owned by Sunrise Riverside Assisted Living,

Canyon Assisted Living Limited Partnership, Sunrise Paramus Assisted Living
Limited Partnership, Sunrise Fairfield Assisted Living, L.P., Sunrise Bellevue
Assisted Living Limited Partnership, Sunrise Oakland Assisted Living Limited
Partnership, Sunrise Walnut Creek Assisted Living Limited Partnership, and
Sunrise Decatur Assisted Living Limited Partnership (collectively, the "SEAL
Affiliates") have been added to the Borrowing Base, and the SEAL Affiliates have
guaranteed the Credit Facility but have not been added as borrowers under the
Credit Facility.
<PAGE> 2
D. The Lenders have agreed to increase the Credit Facility Committed
Amount to $400,000,000 which increase shall be evidenced by a Second Amended,
Restated and Increased Master Note ("Note") of even date herewith which amends,
restates and replaces the Original Note. In connection with such increase and
other modifications to the Credit Facility, the Existing Financing Agreement and
the Construction Agreement are being amended, restated and consolidated pursuant
to the Second Amended and Restated Financing and Security Agreement of even date
herewith (as amended, extended or substituted from time to time, the "Financing
Agreement").
E. In connection with the increase to the Credit Facility Committed
Amount, (i) the SEAL Affiliates, and (ii) every other entity beneficially owned,
in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by Sunrise Assisted Living, Inc.
which hereafter grants a lien on an Eligible Project and related Collateral as
collateral for the Credit Facility and enters into a Joinder Agreement pursuant
to the Note (collectively, the "Additional SEAL Affiliates") are to be added as
borrowers under the Credit Facility.
F. The term "Borrowers" shall mean, collectively, SEAL, Sunrise SEAL, the
SEAL Affiliates and the Additional SEAL Affiliates.
G. Any capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall
have the meaning provided for such term in the Financing Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of and as a material inducement to, the
Lenders to modify the terms of the Credit Facility and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, effective as of the date hereof, the Guarantor hereby agrees as
follows:
1. The Recitals are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of
this Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meaning provided for such terms in the Financing Agreement.
2. The Guarantor hereby acknowledges, approves, ratifies and confirms
that the Performance Guaranty will continue to apply to the Credit Facility, and
agrees that the Administrative Agent's action in requiring the Guarantor's
express consent to the modification and increase of the Credit Facility shall
not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent's or Lenders' right pursuant
to the terms of the Performance Guaranty or any of the other Financing Documents
to renew, extend, increase the principal amount or otherwise modify the Credit
Facility or the Financing Documents without the Guarantor's prior consent and
without affecting the Guarantor's liability therefore.
3. The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) The Administrative Agent and Lenders have acted in good faith and
have conducted themselves in a commercially reasonably manner in their
relationship with the
2
<PAGE> 3
Borrowers and the Guarantor in connection with the Performance Guaranty and in
connection with the Financing Documents and the Guarantor hereby waives and
releases any claims to the contrary.
(b) The Performance Guaranty is valid and binding, and is an
enforceable obligation of the Guarantor, subject, however, to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws
affecting creditors' rights generally and the exercise of judicial discretion in
accordance with general principles of equity.
4. The Guarantor hereby releases, acquits, and forever discharges the
Administrative Agent and Lenders, their officers, employees and agents from any
and all claims that the Administrative Agent or Lenders are in any way
responsible for the current condition or deterioration of the Borrowers'
business operations and/or financial condition, and from any and all claims that
the Administrative Agent or Lenders breached any agreement to loan money to the
Borrowers to fund any of the Borrowers' operations at any times. The Guarantor
further agrees that from and after the date hereof, it will not assert in any
legal proceedings that any deterioration of the business operations or financial
condition of the Borrowers as of the date of this Agreement was caused by any
breach or wrongful act of the Administrative Agent or Lenders. Without limiting
the generality of the following, the Guarantor acknowledges that it is
personally benefiting from the extension of the Credit Facility and hereby
waives any claim that the Administrative Agent or Lenders violated the Equal
Credit Opportunity Act (15 U.S.C. Section 1691 et seq.) in connection with the
Credit Facility, the Note or any other obligation or security for any obligation
which is the subject thereof. The Guarantor represents and warrants that it has
no claims, actions, causes of action, defenses, counterclaims or setoffs of any
kind or nature (collectively, "Claims") which it can assert against the
Administrative Agent or Lenders in connection with the making, closing,
administration, collection, and/or enforcement by the Administrative Agent or
Lenders of the Performance Guaranty or any of the Financing Documents. IN THE
EVENT THAT THE GUARANTOR HAS ANY CLAIMS WHICH IT NOW OR HEREAFTER MAY ASSERT
AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR LENDERS IN CONNECTION WITH THE MAKING,
CLOSING, ADMINISTRATION, COLLECTION AND/OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT OR THE LENDERS OF THE PERFORMANCE GUARANTY OR ANY OF THE FINANCING
DOCUMENTS AT OR PRIOR TO THE DATE HEREOF, THEN BY EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT, THE
GUARANTOR FOREVER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND RELINQUISHES SUCH CLAIMS.
5. THE GUARANTOR REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT IS REPRESENTED BY
COUNSEL OF ITS CHOICE WHO HAVE REVIEWED THIS AGREEMENT AND ADVISED GUARANTOR OF
ITS CONTENTS AND MEANING. THE GUARANTOR FURTHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT
IS SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT VOLUNTARILY AND WITH FULL UNDERSTANDING OF ITS
CONTENTS AND MEANING.
6. This Agreement shall not constitute a novation with regard to any
obligations arising under the Credit Facility or the Performance Guaranty.
3
<PAGE> 4
7. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Guarantor has caused this Agreement to be duly
executed as an instrument under seal effective as of the day and year first

ARTICLE II
BORROWING
Section 2.1 The Loan
(a) The Lenders agree to lend to the Borrowers pursuant to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the Borrowers, jointly and
severally, agree to borrow on a revolving basis from the Lenders from time to
time the principal amount (the "Loan") not to exceed at any time outstanding the
lesser of (i) the Credit Facility Committed Amount, or (ii) the Borrowing Base
minus the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding.
(b) The obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loan shall be
evidenced by the Second Amended, Restated, Consolidated and Increased Master
Note dated July 29, 1999 as amended by the Note Modification (as further
amended, restated, substituted, extended, renewed and otherwise modified from
time to time, the "Note") payable to the Administrative Agent in the form
attached hereto as EXHIBIT A. The Note shall bear interest and shall be repaid
by the Borrowers in the manner and at the times set forth in the Note.
(c) The conditions precedent for making an advance under the
Loan shall be as set forth in this Agreement. Sums borrowed and repaid may be
readvanced under the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Advances shall be
made by the Lenders on a pro rata basis based on their pro rata shares of the
Credit Facility Committed Amount.
(d) No advances may be made or be outstanding under the Credit
Facility and no Letters of Credit may be issued until and during such times as
there are at least eight (8) Eligible Projects in the Borrowing Base of which
83% must be Pool A Projects. The Borrowers will prepare a Borrowing Base Report
(each a "Borrowing Base Report") in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT B which
must also be certified by the Borrowers listing for each of the Eligible
Projects (i) the applicable Deed of Trust Lien Amount, (ii) the Costs Incurred
to Date, and (iii) its status as of the most recent reporting date as a Pool A,
Pool B or Pool C Project within forty-five (45) days after the end of each of
the Borrowers' fiscal quarters. The Borrowing Base Report will be based on the
outcome of the requisition procedures hereinafter described, appraisals obtained
by the Administrative Agent and other information on the Eligible Projects
provided by the Borrowers or obtained by the Administrative Agent. The Borrowing
Base shall be computed based on the Borrowing Base Report most recently prepared
by the Borrowers and reviewed and accepted by the Administrative Agent. In the
event the Borrowers shall fail to furnish other current reports or information
as reasonably required by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Financing
Documents, or in the event the Administrative Agent believes that a Borrowing
Base Report is no longer accurate, the Administrative Agent may, in its
reasonable discretion exercised from time to time and without limiting its other
rights and remedies under the Financing Documents, upon notice to the Borrowers
and the expiration of a cure period of five (5) Banking Days, designate any
Eligible Project as a Pool C Project or suspend the making of or limit advances
under the Loan. The Borrowing Base shall be subject to reduction as a result of
the following events: (i) the release of an Eligible Project from the lien of
the applicable Deed
22
<PAGE> 29
of Trust, (ii) by the change of any Eligible Project's status as a Pool A or B
Project to a Pool B or C Project respectively as determined by the
Administrative Agent quarterly, or (iii) the change in appraised value of an
Eligible Project pursuant to Section 7.28 Updated Appraisals. The Borrowing Base
shall be subject to increase as a result of the following events: (i) addition
of Eligible Projects, (ii) increase in the Costs Incurred to Date as determined
by the Administrative Agent quarterly, or (iii) the change of an Eligible
Project's status as a Pool B or C Project to a Pool A as determined by the
Administrative Agent quarterly. The Borrowers may request and the Requisite
Lenders (as defined in the Agency Agreement) may in their sole discretion agree
to include as an Eligible Project a Completed Facility which a Borrower has
acquired which meets the conditions precedent to including a completed Facility
as an Eligible Project.
(e) The Borrowers shall furnish to the Administrative Agent
such schedules, certificates, lists, records, reports, information and documents
as required by the Administrative Agent from time to time so that the
Administrative Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, determine the Borrowing
Base.
(f) If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the Loan
outstanding and the Outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations exceeds the
Borrowing Base, a borrowing base deficiency ("Borrowing Base Deficiency") shall
exist. Each time a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, the Borrowers shall within
three (3) Banking Days of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent either
pay the amount and/or add Eligible Projects to increase the Borrowing Base to an
amount which is at least equal to the aggregate principal amount outstanding
under the Loan and the Outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations.
(g) The current Borrowing Base Report is attached hereto as
EXHIBIT C.
(h) As of the date hereof the Borrower has designated and the
Lenders have accepted certain Facilities into the Borrowing Base as Eligible
Projects. This Agreement shall govern the procedures for verification by the
Administrative Agent of Costs Incurred to Date on each Eligible Project. This
Agreement shall also govern the terms, conditions and procedures under which
Eligible Projects may be added to the Borrowing Base.
(i) The Borrower will give notice to the Administrative Agent
in writing in advance of its intention to add a particular Facility as an
Eligible Project under the Credit Facility. Each Total Development Budget for an
Eligible Project shall include an interest reserve (the "Interest Reserve"), and
Operating Reserve, a hard cost contingency reserve of not less than five percent
(5%) of the total budgeted construction costs and a development fee payable to
SDI (the "Development Fee") and shall demonstrate to the Agent's satisfaction in
its sole discretion that the Eligible Project will be designated as a Pool A
Project.
Section 2.2 Procedure for Advances
(a) The Administrative Agent will make advances from time to
time upon receipt of written request from the Borrowers in the form designated
by the Administrative Agent, provided that after giving effect to the Borrowers'
request, the outstanding principal
23
<PAGE> 30
balance of the Loan would not exceed the lesser of the Credit Facility Committed
Amount or the Borrowing Base minus the aggregate face amounts of all Letters of
Credit outstanding. Each advance under the Loan shall be in an amount of not
less than $1,000,000, and in increments of $250,000 in excess thereof. Advances
or the renewal of a Eurodollar Period shall be requested by the Borrowers orally
or in writing by 10:00 A.M. (Baltimore time) three (3) Banking Days prior to the
Banking Day on which the funds will be advanced. The Borrowers shall advise the
Administrative Agent at the time of such notice which Eurodollar Period they are
selecting. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make any advance
if at the time such advance is requested and/or is proposed to be funded, there
exists an Event of Default or an event which upon notice or lapse of time or
both would constitute an Event of Default under the Financing Documents. If the
Borrowers fail to advise the Administrative Agent three (3) Banking Days in
advance of the expiration of a Eurodollar Period of its intention to either pay
off such portion of the Loan or renew the applicable Eurodollar Period, it shall
be assumed by the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Period is to be
renewed.
(b) In addition, if the Administrative Agent has reason to
believe a Default or an Event of Default has occurred, the Borrowers hereby
irrevocably authorize the Lenders to make advances of the Loan at any time and
from time to time, without further request from or notice to the Borrowers,
which the Lenders, in their sole and absolute discretion, deem necessary or
appropriate to protect the Lenders' interests under this Agreement or otherwise,
including, without limitation, advances of the Loan made to cover interest on
the Loan, fees, and/or Enforcement Costs, prior to, on, or after the termination
of this Agreement, regardless of whether the aggregate amount of the advances of
the Loan which the Lenders may make hereunder exceeds the Credit Facility
Committed Amount. The Lenders shall have no obligation whatsoever to make any
advance under this subsection and the making of one or more advances under this
subsection shall not obligate the Lenders to make other similar advances. Any
such advances will be evidenced by the Note secured by the Collateral and the
Deeds of Trust.
Section 2.3 Fees
The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent the following fees:
(a) Unused Line Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders beginning on the date set
forth below a quarterly revolving credit facility fee (the "Unused Line Fee") in
an amount equal to twenty-five (25) basis points per annum of the average
undisbursed portion of the "Unused Commitment Amount" for the applicable quarter
specified in the right-hand column below. The accrued and unpaid portion of the
Unused Line Fee shall be paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent as of
the Credit Facility Closing Date and on the first day of each fiscal quarter and
on the Revolving Credit Termination Date. For purposes hereof "Average
Outstandings" shall mean the average daily principal under the Note plus the
average daily principal amount of the aggregate face amounts of the Letters of
Credit for the quarter then ended.
Period Unused Commitment Amount
------ ------------------------
24
<PAGE> 31
Quarter ending 3/31/2000 $300,000,000 less the Average
Outstandings
Quarter ending 6/30/2000 $350,000,000 less the Average
Oustandings
Quarter ending 9/30/2000 and Credit Facility Committed
each fiscal quarter there- Amount less the Average
after Outstandings
(b) Appraisal Fees. Upon the receipt of an appraiser's invoice
from the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall pay the fee of the appraiser
for an Eligible Project.
(c) Extension Fee. In the event the Revolving Credit Expiration
Date of the Credit Facility is extended for a twelve-month period pursuant to
the terms of Section 2.5 Extensions
Section 2.4 Interest Rate Matters
(a) Lender Tax Adjustment. Each payment made by the Borrowers
under the Note shall either (i) be exempt from, and be made without reduction by
reason of, any Lender Tax or (ii) to the extent that any such payment shall be
subject to any Lender Tax, be accompanied by an additional payment by the
Borrowers of such amount as may be necessary so that the net amount received by
each Lender (after deducting all applicable Taxes) is the same as such Lender
would have received had such payment not been subject to such Lender Tax. Upon
any payment of Lender Tax by the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall promptly (and in
any event within 30 days) furnish to the Administrative Agent and applicable
Lender such tax receipts, certificates an other evidence of such payment as the
Borrowers may have or the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender may
reasonably request.
(b) Inability to Determine Eurodollar Rate. In the event that
the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive
absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the London
interbank market, quotation of Eurodollar Rates for any portion of the Note are
not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for
the purpose of determining a Eurodollar Rate for any portion of the principal
sum, the Administrative Agent will give notice of such determination to the
Borrowers and each Lender at least one day prior to the date of an advance or
any subsequent Eurodollar Period for the Loan. If any such notice is given, no
Lender shall have any obligation to make any advance or maintain any principal
sum outstanding at a Eurodollar Rate. Until the earlier of the date any such
notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent or the date when the
Lenders and the Borrowers have mutually agreed upon an alternate method of
determining the rates of interest payable on the Loan, as the case may be, the
Borrowers shall not have the right to have additional advances or maintain any
portion of the Credit Facility at a Eurodollar Rate, whereupon the Lenders and
the Borrowers shall mutually agree upon an alternate method of
25
<PAGE> 32
determining the rates of interest payable on the Loan or such Lender's portion
of the principal outstanding under all the Note shall be immediately due and
payable.
(c) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Financing Documents to the contrary, in the event that it shall become unlawful
for any Lender to obtain funds in the London interbank market or for such Lender
to maintain the Loan at the Eurodollar Rate, then, by written notice to the
Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent, such Lender may declare that advances
will not thereafter be made or the Loan maintained by such Lender hereunder at
the Eurodollar Rate, whereupon the Lenders and the Borrowers shall mutually
agree upon an alternate method of determining the rates of interest payable on
the Loan or such Lender's portion of the principal outstanding under the Note
shall be immediately due and payable.
(d) Increased Costs and Reduced Return.
(i) If any event shall occur (whether in the form of a
reserve requirement (not included in the definition of the
Eurodollar Rate), exchange control regulations, governmental
charges, compliance with any guideline or request from any central
bank or other Governmental Authority, changes in the London
interbank market or the position of any Lender in such market or
otherwise) and the result of any such event is, in such Lender's
reasonable judgment, to increase the costs which such Lender
determines are attributable to its making or maintaining the Loan
at the Eurodollar Rate in excess of those costs already in effect
as of July 1, 1999, or its obligation to make available the Loan
at the Eurodollar Rate or to reduce the amount of any sum received
or receivable by such Lender under the Note, then, within ten (10)
days after demand by such Lender, Borrowers hereby agree to pay to
such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.
(ii) In addition to any amounts payable pursuant to Section
(i), if any Lender shall have determined that the applicability of
any law, rule, regulation or guideline adopted pursuant to or
arising out of the July 1988 report of the Basle Committee on
Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices entitled
"International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital
Standards," or the adoption after the date hereof of any other
law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or
any change in any of the foregoing or in the enforcement or
interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any
court or any central bank or other Governmental Authority, charged
with the enforcement or interpretation or administration thereof,
or compliance by such Lender (or any lending office of such
Lender) or such Lender's holding company with any request or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the
force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable
agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's
holding company, if any, as a consequence of its making or
maintaining the Loan or its incurring any obligations under this
26
<PAGE> 33
Agreement to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's
holding company could have achieved but for such applicability,
adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such
Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding
company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by
such Lender to be material, then, upon demand by such Lender, the
Borrowers hereby agree to pay to such Lender from time to time
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender
or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(e) Notice of Amounts Payable to Lenders. If any Lender shall
seek payment of any amounts from Borrowers pursuant to this Section or under
Section 2.4 Interest Rate Matters, it shall notify the Borrowers and the
Administrative Agent of the amount payable by the Borrowers to such Lender
hereunder. A certificate of such Lender seeking payment setting forth in
reasonable detail the factual basis for and the computation of the amount
specified, shall be conclusive and binding on all parties for all purposes,
absent manifest error, as to the amounts owned. The Borrowers' obligations under
this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment
of the Obligations.
(f) Change in Basis Point Spread. Any change in the basis point
margin added to the Eurodollar Rate based on a change in the rating pursuant to
the terms of the Note shall take effect one (1) Banking Day following notice by
the Administrative Agent to the Lenders of such rate change.
Section 2.5 Extensions
At any time not later than thirty (30) days nor earlier than one hundred
twenty (120) days prior to the Revolving Credit Expiration Date or any
anniversary of the Facility Closing, the Borrowers may request that the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in their sole discretion, may agree to
extend the Revolving Credit Expiration Date one or more times for a period of
twelve (12) months each.
Section 2.6 The Letter of Credit Facility
(a) Letters of Credit. Subject to and upon the provisions of
this Agreement, and as a part of the Credit Facility Committed Amount, the
Borrower may, upon the prior approval of the Administrative Agent, obtain
standby letters of credit (as the same may from time to time be amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified, each a "Letter of Credit" and collectively
the "Letters of Credit") from any Lender selected by the Borrowers from time to
time until the Banking Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Each
Letter of Credit shall be issued for a business purpose of any Borrower, SALI or
any Affiliate, provided that one or more Borrowers is a co-obligor with SALI or
any Affiliate for the Obligations arising under such Letter of Credit and
executes the applicable Letter of Credit Application to evidence such liability.
The Borrower will not be entitled to obtain a Letter of Credit hereunder unless
(a) after giving effect to the request, the outstanding principal balance of the
Loan and of the Letter of Credit Obligations would not exceed the lesser of (i)
the Credit Facility Amount, or (ii) the most
27
<PAGE> 34
current Borrowing Base and (b) the sum of the aggregate face amount of the then
outstanding Letters of Credit (including the face amount of the requested Letter
of Credit) does not exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000).
(b) Letter of Credit Fees. Prior to or simultaneously with the
opening of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent or the other issuing Lender for the benefit of all the Lenders, a letter
of credit fee (each a "Letter of Credit Fee" and collectively the "Letter of
Credit Fees") in an amount equal to eighty (80) basis points per annum of the
amount of the Letter of Credit and a facing fee of 1/8th of 1% of the amount of
the Letter of Credit for the benefit of the issuing Lender only. The Letter of
Credit Fee but not the facing fee will be pro-rated if the initial term of a
Letter of Credit is less than twelve (12) months. Such Letter of Credit Fees
shall be paid upon the opening of the Letter of Credit and upon each anniversary
thereof, if any. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender any and all
additional issuance, negotiation, processing, transfer or other fees to the
extent and as and when required by the provisions of any Letter of Credit
Agreement; such additional fees are included in and a part of the "Fees" payable
by the Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement.
(c) Terms of Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall (a)
be opened pursuant to a Letter of Credit Agreement, and (b) expire on a date not
later than the Banking Day preceding the Revolving Credit Expiration Date;
provided, however, if any Letter of Credit does have an expiration date later
than the Banking Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date, as of the
Banking Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date an advance of the
Loan shall be made by the Lender in the face amount of such Letter of Credit (or
Letters of Credit) and the proceeds thereof shall be deposited in an account
titled in the name of the Administrative Agent as trustee for the Borrower. The
proceeds of the trustee account referred to in the immediately preceding
sentence shall be held as collateral for the Letter of Credit (or Letters of
Credit) and in the event of a draw under the Letter of Credit (or Letters of
Credit), used to pay any such draw. The aggregate face amount of all Letters of
Credit at any one time outstanding and issued by the Administrative Agent or any
other Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, plus the amount of
any unpaid Letter of Credit Fees accrued or scheduled to accrue thereon, and
less the aggregate amount of all drafts issued under or purporting to have been
issued under such Letters of Credit that have been paid by the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender, is herein called the "Outstanding Letter of Credit
Obligations".
(d) Procedure for Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall give
the Administrative Agent written notice at least two (2) Banking Days prior to
the date on which a Letter of Credit is requested to be opened of their request
for a Letter of Credit. Such notice shall specify if a Lender other than the
Administrative Agent is requested to be the issuing bank for such Letter of
Credit shall be accompanied by a duly executed and delivered Letter of Credit
Agreement. Upon receipt of the Letter of Credit Agreement and the Letter of
Credit Fee, the Administrative Agent or other issuing Lender shall process such
Letter of Credit Agreement in accordance with its customary procedures and open
such Letter of Credit on the Banking Day specified in such notice.

Borrowing Base composed of Costs Incurred to Date shall be related to
expenditures for each Eligible Facility described in the applicable Total
Development Budget. Each Total Development Budget may include the cost of (i)
the acquisition by the Borrowers of the Land which is the site of such Facility,
(ii) the construction on the Premises of a Facility containing residential units
and common facilities (iii) marketing, staffing and similar pre-opening expenses
and (iv) an Operating Reserve. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative
Agent and to the extent specifically permitted by the Administrative Agent, the

Borrowers of the following costs and expenses related to the development of the
Premises and the construction of the Improvements and no others may be included
in a Total Development Budget: (i) the payment of interest when due without
further authorization or consent of the Borrowers; (ii) the actual cost of the
Land and all labor, services, materials, supervision, construction fees and the
like reasonably incurred by any of the Borrowers in connection with the

closing or settlement costs, fees of attorneys, engineers, architects and
accountants, insurance and bond premiums, ad valorem real estate taxes and other
costs directly related to the development of the Land and the construction,
marketing, initial start-up operating of the Improvements and (v) for the
Development Fee and other pre-opening fees.
Section 2.8 Requisitions Demonstrating Expenses
Verification of the Borrowers' Costs Incurred to Date will be
administered by the Administrative Agent's Real Estate Loan Administration
Group. Requisitions for each Eligible Project shall be submitted by the
Borrowers from time to time setting forth costs incurred by or on behalf of the
Borrowers shall be in the form approved by the Administrative Agent (each a
"Requisition" collectively, the "Requisitions") signed by James S. Pope, Larry
Hulse, Christopher Slavin, Thomas B. Newell or David W. Faeder on behalf of the
Borrowers and approved by the Architect, showing the percentage of completion
and setting forth in trade breakdown form and in such detail as may be required
by the Administrative Agent the amounts expended and/or costs incurred for work
done and necessary materials incorporated in the Improvements. The Requisition
shall also show the percentage of completion of each line item on the applicable
Borrower's cost breakdown approved by the Administrative Agent. The Borrowers
shall submit with each Requisition a statement that the work completed to the
date of such Requisition is of quality consistent with the applicable Plans and
Specifications. In addition, at the time of delivery of each Requisition by the
Borrowers, the Borrowers shall furnish to the Administrative Agent such
additional information (such as paid receipts, invoices, statements of accounts,
etc.) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require to assure that amounts
shown in the Requisition have been paid by or on behalf of the Borrowers.
Requisitions verified by the
29
<PAGE> 36
Real Estate Loan Administration Group during the course of a fiscal quarter will
be included in the calculation of the next Borrowing Base Report.
Section 2.9 Co-Borrower Obligations
Each Person included in the term "Borrowers", including each Additional

discretion), in the name of the Primary Borrower or in the name of the Borrower

be revoked without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, and
may be exercised from time to time through the Primary Borrower's duly
authorized officer, officers or other Person or Persons designated by the
Primary Borrower to act from time to time on behalf of the Primary Borrower.

<PAGE> 37
the Person included in the term "Borrowers" on file with the Administrative
Agent and also upon the written, oral or telephone request of any one of
Responsible Officer.
(e) The Administrative Agent assumes no responsibility or
liability for any errors, mistakes, and/or discrepancies in the oral,
telephonic, written or other transmissions of any instructions, orders, requests
and confirmations between the Administrative Agent and any one or more of the
Persons included in the term "Borrowers", any advance under the Loan or any
other transaction in connection with the provisions of this Agreement except
those resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct.
Section 2.10 Agreement Among Borrowers
Without implying any limitation on the joint and several nature of the
Obligations, the Administrative Agent agrees that, notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the Persons included in the term "Borrowers" may
create reasonable inter-company indebtedness between or among the Persons
included in the term "Borrowers" with respect to the allocation of the benefits
and proceeds of the advances under this Agreement. The Persons included in the
term "Borrowers" agree among themselves, and the Administrative Agent consents
to that agreement, that each such Person shall have rights of contribution from
all of the such Persons to the extent such Person incurs Obligations in excess
of the proceeds of the Loans received by, or allocated to purposes for the
direct benefit of, such Person. All such indebtedness and rights shall be, and
are hereby agreed by the Persons included in the term "Borrowers" to be,
subordinate in priority and payment to the indefeasible repayment in full in
cash of the Obligations, and, unless the Administrative Agent agrees in writing
otherwise, shall not be exercised or repaid in whole or in part until all of the
Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Person included in
the term "Borrowers" agrees that all of such inter-company indebtedness and
rights of contribution are part of the Collateral and secure the Obligations.
Each Person included in the term "Borrowers" hereby waives all rights of
counterclaim, recoupment and offset between or among themselves arising on
account of that indebtedness and otherwise. Unless otherwise consented to in
writing by the Administrative Agent, no Person included in the term "Borrowers"
shall evidence the inter-company indebtedness or rights of contribution by note
or other instrument, and shall not secure such indebtedness or rights of
contribution with any Lien or security.
Section 2.11 Benefits to Borrowers
Each Person included in the term "Borrowers" hereby represents and
warrants to the Administrative Agent that each of them will derive benefits,
directly and indirectly, from each advance under the Loan, both in their
separate capacity and as a member of the integrated group to which each such
Person belongs and because the successful operation of the integrated group is
dependent upon the continued successful performance of the functions of the
integrated group as a whole, because (i) the terms of the consolidated financing
provided under this Agreement are more favorable than would otherwise be
obtainable by such Persons individually, and (ii) the additional administrative
and other costs and reduced flexibility associated with individual
31
<PAGE> 38
financing arrangements which would otherwise be required if obtainable would
substantially reduce the value to such Persons of the financing.
Section 2.12 Guaranty
(a) Each Person included in the term "Borrowers" hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Administrative Agent:
(i) the due and punctual payment in full (and not merely
the collectibility) by the other Persons included in the term
"Borrowers" of the Obligations, including unpaid and accrued
interest thereon, in each case when due and payable, all according
to the terms of this Agreement, the Note and the other Financing
Documents;
(ii) the due and punctual payment in full (and not merely
the collectibility) by the other Persons included in the term
"Borrowers" of all other sums and charges which may at any time be
due and payable in accordance with this Agreement, the Note or any
of the other Financing Documents;
(iii) the due and punctual performance by the other
Persons included in the term "Borrowers" of all of the other
terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Financing
Documents; and
(iv) all the other Obligations of the other Persons
included in the term "Borrowers".
(b) The obligations and liabilities of each Person included in
the term "Borrowers" as a guarantor under this Section shall be absolute and
unconditional and joint and several, irrespective of the genuineness, validity,
priority, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Note or any of the
Financing Documents or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a
legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor. Each Person included in
the term "Borrowers" in its capacity as a guarantor expressly agrees that the
Administrative Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, without notice to
or further assent of such Borrower and without in any way releasing, affecting
or in any way impairing the joint and several obligations and liabilities of
such Person as a guarantor hereunder:
(i) waive compliance with, or any defaults under, or
grant any other indulgences under or with respect to any of the
Financing Documents;
(ii) modify, amend, change or terminate any provisions of
any of the Financing Documents;
(iii) grant extensions or renewals of or with respect to
this Agreement, the Note or any of the other Financing Documents;

settlement in connection with this Agreement, the Note or any of
the other Financing Documents;

other disposition of the Collateral or any part thereof, or any
other collateral for the Loan or to the subordination of any lien
or security interest therein;

or any of the other Financing Documents with respect to which the
Borrower shall then be in default;

any of the other Financing Documents;
(viii) assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer,
the Obligations, the Note, any of the other Financing Documents or
any interest therein, all as and to the extent permitted by the
provisions of this Agreement;
(ix) deal in all respects with the other Persons included
in the term "Borrowers" as if this Section were not in effect;
(x) effect any release, compromise or settlement with
any of the other Persons included in the term "Borrowers", whether
in their capacity as a Borrower or as a guarantor under this
Section or any other guarantor; and
(xi) provide debtor-in-possession financing or allow use
of cash collateral in proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code, it
being expressly agreed by all Persons included in the term
"Borrowers" that any such financing and/or use would be part of
the Obligations.
(c) The obligations and liabilities of each Person included in
the term "Borrowers", as guarantor under this Section shall be primary, direct
and immediate, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, recoupment, set off,
reduction or defense based upon any claim that such Person may have against any
one or more of the other Persons included in the term "Borrowers", the
Administrative Agent and/or any other guarantor and shall not be conditional or
contingent upon pursuit or enforcement by the Administrative Agent of any
remedies it may have against Persons included in the term "Borrowers" with
respect to this Agreement, the Note or any of the other Financing Documents,
whether pursuant to the terms thereof or by operation of law. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required
to make any demand upon any of the Persons included in the term "Borrowers", or
to sell the Collateral or otherwise pursue, enforce or exhaust its or their
remedies against the Persons included in the term "Borrowers" or the Collateral
either before, concurrently with or after pursuing or enforcing its rights and
remedies hereunder. Any one or more successive or concurrent actions or
proceedings may be brought against each Person included in the term
33
<PAGE> 40
"Borrowers" under this Section, either in the same action, if any, brought
against any one or more of the Persons included in the term "Borrowers" or in
separate actions or proceedings, as often as the Administrative Agent may deem
expedient or advisable. Without limiting the foregoing, it is specifically
understood that any modification, limitation or discharge of any of the
liabilities or obligations of any one or more of the Persons included in the
term "Borrowers", any other guarantor or any obligor under any of the Financing
Documents, arising out of, or by virtue of, any bankruptcy, arrangement,
reorganization or similar proceeding for relief of debtors under federal or
state law initiated by or against any one or more of the Persons included in the
term "Borrowers", in their respective capacities as borrowers and guarantors
under this Section, or under any of the Financing Documents shall not modify,
limit, lessen, reduce, impair, discharge, or otherwise affect the liability of
each Borrower under this Section in any manner whatsoever, and this Section
shall remain and continue in full force and effect. It is the intent and purpose
of this Section that each Person included in the term "Borrowers" shall and does
hereby waive all rights and benefits which might accrue to any other guarantor
by reason of any such proceeding, and the Persons included in the term
"Borrowers" agree that they shall be liable for the full amount of the
obligations and liabilities under this Section regardless of, and irrespective
to, any modification, limitation or discharge of the liability of any one or
more of the Persons included in the term "Borrowers", any other guarantor or any
obligor under any of the Financing Documents, that may result from any such
proceedings.
(d) Each Person included in the term "Borrowers", as guarantor
under this Section, hereby unconditionally, jointly and severally, irrevocably
and expressly waives:
(i) presentment and demand for payment of the
Obligations and protest of non-payment;

presentment, demand and protest thereof;

Administrative Agent to do so, each Person included in the term "Borrowers" will

Agent may direct with a written certificate, duly acknowledged stating in detail
whether or not any credits, offsets or defenses exist with respect to this
Section.

power of substitution to complete work on any Eligible Project in the name of
the Borrowers, and hereby empowers said attorney or attorneys as follows:

the Land and the construction of any of the Improvements, whether or not in the
manner called for in the Plans and Specifications;
(b) To make such additions and changes and corrections to any

(c) To employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents,
architects and inspectors as shall be necessary or desirable for said purpose;

which are or may be liens against any of the Property, or may be necessary or

required in the name of any of the Borrowers; and
(f) To do any and every act with respect to the development of
the Land and the construction of the Improvements which any of the Borrowers

to be a power coupled with an interest which cannot be revoked. Said

or proceedings in connection with the development of the Land and the
construction of the Improvements and to take such actions and to require such
performance as the Lenders may deem necessary.

hereof, or such other address of the Borrowers which may from time to time be
shown on the Lenders' records, at least ten (10) days prior to such sale,
disposition or other action, shall constitute reasonable notice to the
Borrowers. The Borrowers shall pay on demand all costs and expenses, including,
without limitation, attorney's fees and expenses, incurred by or on behalf of
the Lenders, or any of them, in preparing for sale or other disposition,
selling, managing, collecting or otherwise disposing of, the Collateral. All of
such costs and expenses (the "Liquidation Costs") together with interest
thereon from the date
83
<PAGE> 90
incurred until paid in full at the Post-Default Rate, shall be paid by the
Borrowers to the Administrative Agent on demand and shall constitute and become

to the immediate appointment of a receiver for all or any part of the
Collateral, and of the payments and proceeds thereof and therefrom, whether

otherwise, and the Borrowers hereby consent to the appointment of such a
receiver and to an order of court directing that payments, including Medicare
and Medicaid payments, be made directly to the receiver. The Borrowers will pay

attorney's fees, costs and agents compensation, advanced by the Borrowers and
incurred pursuant to the provisions contained in this Section.

failure of the Lenders to comply with any request of the Borrowers or of any
other person to take action to foreclose on the Property under the Deed of
Trust or otherwise to enforce any provision of the Financing Documents, or by
reason of the release, regardless of consideration, of all or any part of the
Property, or by reason of any agreement or stipulation between any subsequent
owner of the Property and the Lenders extending the time of payment or
modifying the terms of the Financing Documents without first having obtained
the consent of the Borrowers; and in the latter event, the Borrowers shall
continue to be liable to make payments according to the terms of any such
extension or modification agreement, unless expressly released and discharged
in writing by the Lenders.
Section 10.9 Remedies Cumulative and Concurrent
No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Lenders or the
Administrative Agent is intended to be exclusive of any other remedies provided
for in the Financing Documents, and each and every such remedy shall be

Property or any part thereof, and every right, power and remedy given by the
Financing Documents may be exercised from time to time as often as may be
deemed expedient by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent.
Section 10.10 Strict Performance
No delay or omission of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to
exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon the happening of an Event of
Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to
be a waiver of any such Event of Default or any acquiescence therein. No delay
or omission on the part of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to exercise
any option for acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations, or any of them,
or for foreclosure of the Deeds of Trust, or any of them, following any Event
of Default as aforesaid, or any other option granted to the Lenders hereunder
in any one or more instances, or the acceptance by the Lenders of any partial
payment on account of the Obligations shall constitute a waiver of any such
Event of Default and each such option shall remain continuously in full force
and effect.

promises to pay to the order of BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., d/b/a NATIONSBANK, N.A.,
successor by merger to NationsBank, N.A. its successors and assigns (the
"Administrative Agent") as administrative agent for itself and the other
lenders who are or shall be from time to time participating as lenders
(collectively with the Administrative Agent, the "Lenders") hereunder pursuant
to the Second Amended and Restated Agency Agreement of even date herewith, (as
amended, restated or substituted from time to time, the "Agency Agreement"),
the maximum principal sum of FOUR HUNDRED MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS
($400,000,000) (the "Principal Sum") or such greater amount as the Lenders may
from time commit to lend pursuant hereto and to the Agency Agreement, or so
much thereof as may be advanced or readvanced to or for the account of the
Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Financing Agreement (as
hereinafter defined), together with interest thereon at the rate or rates
hereinafter provided. All defined terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meaning set forth in the Financing Agreement.
1. Interest. Interest on portions of the outstanding Principal Sum
shall accrue and be payable for periods of thirty (30) days each or periods of
seven (7) days each (each a "Eurodollar Period") at a fixed rate for such
Eurodollar Period equal to the sum of (i) Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the
Financing Agreement), which rate shall be adjusted for any Federal Reserve
Board reserve requirements imposed upon the Administrative Agent or any of the
Lenders from time to time, plus (ii) that certain number of basis points per
annum (the "Spread") applicable pursuant to the conditions set forth below. The
Eurodollar Rate determined pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in
effect to the end of the applicable Eurodollar Period. Interest payable
hereunder shall also be subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.4 of
the Financing Agreement.
No more than six (6) different Eurodollar Periods may be in effect at any one
time provided that
EXHBIT A-4
<PAGE> 109
not more than one (1) Eurodollar Period may be a seven day Eurodollar Period.
Interest shall be computed for the actual number of days which have elapsed
from the date of each advance of a portion of the Principal Sum calculated on
the basis of a 365-day year.
For any Eurodollar Period commencing on a date when one or more of SEAL,
Sunrise SEAL or Guarantor (as defined in the Financing Agreement) has a senior
secured debt rating from each of Moody's and Standard & Poors and not lower,
respectively, than BBB- and Baa3, the Spread shall be determined according to
the following grid based on the lower rating, if any, of either Moody's or
Standard & Poors.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
STANDARD & POORS MOODY'S
SENIOR SECURED DEBT RATING Senior Secured Debt Rating SPREAD
-------------------------- -------------------------- ------
<S> <C> <C>
A- A3 100
BBB+ Baa1 110
BBB Baa2 120
BBB- Baa3 130
</TABLE>
If a senior secured debt rating is not available from both Standard & Poors and
Moody's, an implied senior secured debt rating will be used. The implied senior
secured debt rating for both Standard & Poors and Moody's will be equivalent to
the lower of either (A) one level above the lower of Standard & Poors and
Moody's senior unsecured debt rating, or (B) two levels above Standard & Poors
and Moody's subordinated debt rating.
In all cases where a Spread based on an actual or implied secured debt rating
is not available or is lower than above, the Spread shall be one hundred fifty
(150) basis points.
2. Payments and Maturity.
(a) Interest only on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan
shall be due and payable on the fifteenth (15th) day of the first (1st) month
following the date hereof and on the fifteenth (15th) day of each and every
month thereafter for a total of thirty-six (36) consecutive months unless
otherwise extended pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreement; and
(b) Principal sums repaid prior to the Maturity Date (as hereinafter
defined) may be reborrowed pursuant to the terms of the Financing Documents.
(c) The outstanding principal balance of the Loan and all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon shall be due and owing at the Maturity Date.
(d) The Loan shall mature and the entire principal balance of the
Loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and
payable on the date (the "Maturity Date") referred to in the Financing
Agreement as the Revolving Credit Termination Date.
EXHBIT A-5
<PAGE> 110
The fact that the balance hereunder may be reduced to zero from time to
time pursuant to the Financing Agreement will not affect the continuing
validity of this Note or the Financing Agreement, and the balance may be
increased to the Principal Sum after any such reduction to zero.
3. Default Interest. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as
hereinafter defined), the unpaid Principal Sum shall bear interest thereafter
until such Event of Default is cured at a rate which is at all times equal to
three percent (3%) per annum in excess of the rate or rates of interest
otherwise payable hereunder.
4. Late Charges. In the event that any payment due hereunder is not
received by the Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) days of the date such
payment is due (inclusive of the date when due), the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent on demand a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of such
payment.
5. Application and Place of Payments. Unless an Event of Default (as
hereinafter defined) has occurred, all payments made on account of this Note,
including prepayments, shall be applied in the following order:
(a) First, to all Enforcement Costs and other expenses of the
Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders;
(b) Second, to all amounts due to the Administrative Agent (in
its capacity as Administrative Agent) from the Borrowers or the Lenders;
(c) Third, to the Lenders, in accordance with their respective
pro rata shares of the Loan, for the past due interest on the Note;
(d) Fourth, to the payment of any prepayment penalty due under
Section 4.8 of the Financing Agreement.
EXHBIT A-6
<PAGE> 111
(e) Fifth, to the Lenders, in accordance with their respective pro
rata shares of the Loan, for principal of the Note in the order hereinafter
provided plus the pro rata share of the settlement payments due to the
Administrative Agent or other Lender who provided the Interest Rate Protection
(as defined in the Financing Agreement) to the Borrowers (the "Settlement
Payments");
(f) Sixth, to the Lenders, in accordance with their respective pro
rata shares of the Loan, for past due fees required under the Financing
Documents;
(g) Seventh, to the Lenders, in accordance with their respective pro
rata shares of the Loan, for all other amounts owed the Lenders pursuant to the
provisions of the Financing Agreement, this Agreement or the Financing
Documents, including but not limited to any unpaid Commitment Fees; and
(h) Eighth, to the Administrative Agent, in payment or reimbursement
of any over-drafts in any account of the Borrowers.
The application of payments after an Event of Default shall be determined by
the Administrative Agent. All payments on account of this Note shall be paid in
lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds
during regular business hours of the Administrative Agent at its principal
office in Baltimore, Maryland or at such other times and places as the
Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time designate in writing
to the Borrower. Any payment received after 2:30 p.m. (Baltimore Time) shall be
deemed to have been received on the next Banking Day.
6. Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay
the Principal Sum in full or in part, at any time and from time to time in
accordance with Section 4.8 of the Financing Agreement. Sums repaid may be
reborrowed.
7. Financing Agreement and Other Financing Documents. This
Note is the Note described in the Second Amended and Restated Financing and
Security Agreement of even date by and among the Borrowers and the
Administrative Agent (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Financing Agreement"). The term "Financing Documents" as used in this Note
shall mean collectively this Note, the Financing Agreement, all Deeds of Trust
(as further amended or otherwise modified from time to time), all of the other
Financing Documents (as defined in the Financing Agreement) and any other
instrument, agreement, or document previously, simultaneously, or hereafter
executed and delivered by the Borrower and/or any other person, singularly or
jointly with any other person, evidencing, securing, guaranteeing, or in
connection with the Credit Facility or the Loan.
8. Security. This Note is secured by, among other things,
certain deeds of trust or mortgages (each as amended, restated or substituted
from time to time, a "Deed of Trust" collectively, the "Deeds of Trust"),
covering that real estate owned by the Borrower and the
EXHBIT A-7
<PAGE> 112
improvements thereon more particularly described in the Deeds of Trust
identified on any Borrowing Base Report or listing of Optional Collateral and
all other property, real and personal, more particularly described in the Deeds
of Trust (collectively, the "Property").
9. Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the
following events shall constitute an event of default (individually, an "Event
of Default" and collectively, the "Events of Default") under the terms of this
Note:
(a) The failure of the Borrower to pay to the Administrative
Agent when due any and all amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under
the terms hereunder and such failure continues for five (5) calendar days after
notice thereof by the Administrative Agent, except with regard to payment of
amounts due at maturity for which no notice or cure period shall be required to
be given and except for a Borrowing Base Deficiency (as defined in the
Financing Agreement) which shall be payable as provided in the Financing
Agreement; or
(b) The occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default (as
those terms are defined in the Financing Agreement) under the terms and
conditions of any of the other Financing Documents, which Default or Event of
Default remains uncured beyond any applicable grace and/or cure period provided
therefor.
10. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, at the
option of the Lenders, all amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under
the terms hereof shall immediately become due and payable by the Borrower to
the Lenders without notice to the Borrower or any other person, and the Lenders
shall have all of the rights, powers, and remedies available under the terms of
this Note, any of the other Financing Documents and all applicable laws. The
Borrower and all endorsers, guarantors, and other parties who may now or in the
future be primarily or secondarily liable for the payment of the indebtedness
under the Loan hereby severally waive presentment, protest and demand, notice
of protest, notice of demand and of dishonor and non-payment of this Note and
expressly agree that this Note or any payment hereunder may be extended from
time to time without in any way affecting the liability of the Borrower,
guarantors and endorsers. The Borrower and all endorsers, guarantors, and other
parties who may now or in the future be liable for payment of the Obligations
hereby acknowledge that all advances under the Loan will be made under and will
be evidenced by this Note.
11. Mandatory Arbitration. Any controversy or claim between or among
the parties hereto including but not limited to those arising out of or
relating to this Note or any related agreements or instruments, including any
claim based on or arising from an alleged tort, shall be determined by binding
arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (or if not
applicable, the applicable state law), as promulgated from time to time by the
Rules of Practice and Procedure for the Arbitration of Commercial Disputes of
Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc., predecessor in interest to
Endispute, Inc., doing business as "J.A.M.S./Endispute" and the "Special Rules"
set forth below. In the event of any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall
control. Judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction.
EXHBIT A-8
<PAGE> 113
Any party to this Note may bring an action, including a summary or expedited
proceeding, to compel arbitration of any controversy or claim to which this
agreement applies in any court having jurisdiction over such action. The
foregoing notwithstanding, in a claim pertaining to a Deed of Trust or
Collateral located in a state with "one-action" rule which might limit to
Lenders' remedies, the Administrative Agent shall have the right in its sole
discretion to restrict the application of this arbitration provision to the
extent that it would otherwise result in a limitation on the Lenders' remedies
in such state.
(i) Special Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in
Fairfax County, Virginia and administered by J.A.M.S./Endispute who will
appoint an arbitrator pursuant to its rules of practice and procedure; if
J.A.M.S./Endispute is unable or legally precluded from administering the
arbitration, then the American Arbitration Association will serve. All
arbitration hearings will be commenced within ninety (90) calendar days of the
demand for arbitration; further, the arbitrator shall only, upon a showing of
cause, be permitted to extend the commencement of such hearing for up to an
additional sixty (60) calendar days.
(ii) Reservations of Rights. Nothing in this Note shall be
deemed to (i) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable statutes of
limitation or repose and any waivers contained in this Note; or (ii) be a
waiver by Administrative Agent of the protection afforded to it by 12 U.S.C.
Sec. 91 or any substantially equivalent state law; or (iii) limit the right of
the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (A) to exercise self help remedies such
as (but not limited to) setoff, or (B) to foreclose against any real or
personal property collateral, or (C) to obtain from a court provisional or
ancillary remedies such as (but not limited to) injunctive relief or the
appointment of a receiver. The Administrative Agent or the Lenders may exercise
such self help rights, foreclose upon such property, or obtain such provisional
or ancillary remedies before, during or after the pendency of any arbitration
proceeding brought pursuant to this Note. At the Administrative Agent's or the
Lenders' option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be
accomplished by any of the following: the exercise of a power of sale under the
deed of trust or mortgage, or by judicial sale under the deed of trust or
mortgage, or by judicial foreclosure. Neither the exercise of self help
remedies nor the institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or
provisional or ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any
party, including the claimant in any such action, to arbitrate the merits of
the controversy or claim occasioning resort to such remedies. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event that the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
exercise such self help remedies or other actions, the Borrower has not waived
any of its rights to seek legal or equitable relief to defend against the
Administrative Agent's or the Lenders' exercise of such self help remedies or
other actions. No provision in the Financing Documents regarding submission to
jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be
in derogation of the provisions in any Financing Document for arbitration of
any controversy or claim.
(iii) Confidentiality. Any arbitration proceeding, award,
findings of fact, conclusions of law, or other information concerning such
arbitration matters shall be held in confidence by the parties and shall not be
disclosed except to each party's employees or agents as shall be reasonably
necessary for such party to conduct its business; provided, however, that
EXHBIT A-9
<PAGE> 114
either party may disclose such information for auditing purposes by independent
certified public accountants, for complying with applicable governmental laws,
regulations or court orders, or that is or becomes part of the public domain
through no breach of this Note.
12. Consent to Jurisdiction. The Borrower irrevocably submits to the
jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of
Virginia over any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to
this Note. The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, any objection that the Borrower may now or hereafter have to the laying
the venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court and
any claim that any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court
has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Final judgment in any such suit,
action, or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding
upon the Borrower and may be enforced in any court in which the Borrower is
subject to jurisdiction by a suit upon such judgment provided that service of
process is effected upon the Borrower as provided in this Note or as otherwise
permitted by applicable law.
13. Service of Process.
(a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints
Wayne G. Tatusko, Esquire of Watt, Tieder, Hoffar & Fitzgerald, 7929 Westpark
Drive, McLean, Virginia 22102, as the Borrower's authorized agent to accept and
acknowledge on the Borrower's behalf service of any and all process that may be
served in any suit, action, or proceeding instituted in connection with this
Note in any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Virginia. If
such agent shall cease so to act, the Borrower shall irrevocably designate and
appoint without delay another such agent in the Commonwealth of Virginia
satisfactory to the Lenders and shall promptly deliver to the Administrative
Agent evidence in writing of such agent's acceptance of such appointment and
its agreement that such appointment shall be irrevocable.
(b) The Borrower hereby consents to process being served in
any suit, action, or proceeding instituted in connection with this Note by (i)
the mailing of a copy thereof by certified mail, postage prepaid, return
receipt requested, to the Borrower and (ii) serving a copy thereof upon the
agent hereinabove designated and appointed by the Borrower as the Borrower's
agent for service of process. The Borrower irrevocably agrees that such service
shall be deemed to be service of process upon the Borrower in any such suit,
action, or proceeding. Nothing in this Note shall affect the right of the
Lenders to serve process in any manner otherwise permitted by law and nothing
in this Note will limit the right of the Lenders otherwise to bring proceedings
against the Borrower in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions.
14. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE BORROWER AND THE LENDERS HEREBY
WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING NOT REQUIRED TO BE ARBITRATED
PURSUANT TO THE TERMS HEREOF TO WHICH THE BORROWER AND THE LENDERS, OR ANY OF
THEM, MAY BE PARTIES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO (A) THIS NOTE,
(B) THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS OR (C) ANY OF THE PROPERTY. IT IS AGREED AND
EXHBIT A-10
<PAGE> 115
UNDERSTOOD THAT THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OF ALL CLAIMS
AGAINST ALL PARTIES TO SUCH ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING CLAIMS AGAINST
PARTIES WHO ARE NOT PARTIES TO THIS NOTE. THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY
AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY THE BORROWER, AND THE BORROWER HEREBY REPRESENTS THAT
NO REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT OR OPINION HAVE BEEN MADE BY ANY INDIVIDUAL TO
INDUCE THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR TO IN ANY WAY MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS
EFFECT. THE BORROWER FURTHER REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE
SIGNING OF THIS NOTE AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL
COUNSEL, SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO
DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL.
15. Expenses. The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative
Agent on demand by the Administrative Agent all costs and expenses incurred by
the Lenders in connection with the collection and enforcement of this Note,
including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and
all court costs.
16. Notices. Any notice, request, or demand to or upon the Borrower
or the Lenders shall be deemed to have been properly given or made when
delivered in accordance with Section 11.1 of the Financing Agreement.
17. Miscellaneous. Each right, power, and remedy of the Lenders as
provided for in this Note or any of the other Financing Documents, or now or
hereafter existing under any applicable law or otherwise shall be cumulative
and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy
provided for in this Note or any of the other Financing Documents or now or
hereafter existing under any applicable law, and the exercise or beginning of
the exercise by the Lenders of any one or more of such rights, powers, or
remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Lenders
of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies. No failure or delay by
the Lenders to insist upon the strict performance of any term, condition,
covenant, or agreement of this Note or any of the other Financing Documents, or
to exercise any right, power, or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, shall
constitute a waiver of any such term, condition, covenant, or agreement or of
any such breach, or preclude the Lenders from exercising any such right, power,
or remedy at a later time or times. By accepting payment after the due date of
any amount payable hereunder, the Lenders shall not be deemed to waive the
right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts payable
under the terms hereof or to declare an Event of Default for the failure to
effect such prompt payment of any such other amount. No course of dealing or
conduct shall be effective to amend, modify, waive, release, or change any
provisions of this Note.
18. Partial Invalidity. In the event any provision of this Note (or
any part of any provision) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality,
or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision (or remaining part of
the affected provision) of this Note; but this Note shall be construed as if
such
EXHBIT A-11
<PAGE> 116
invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision (or part thereof) had not been
contained in this Note, but only to the extent it is invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable.
19. Captions. The captions herein set forth are for convenience only
and shall not be deemed to define, limit, or describe the scope or intent of
this Note.
20. Governing Law. The provisions of this Note shall be construed,
interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia as the same may be in effect from time to time.
3. It is expressly understood and agreed that the indebtedness
evidenced by the Original Note has not been extinguished or discharged hereby
and is consolidated herein. The Borrower and/or the Administrative Agent agree
that the execution of this Note is not intended and shall not cause or result
in a novation with regard to the Original Note.
4. This Note may be executed in one or more counterparts each of
which shall constitute an original for all purposes; provided, however, that
all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent have
caused this Second Amended, Restated and Increased Master Promissory Note to be
executed, under seal, by their duly authorized representatives, as of the date

the "Financing Agreement") by and among Sunrise East Assisted Living Limited
Partnership, Sunrise SEAL, L.L.C., certain other affiliated borrowing entities
(collectively, the "Borrower") and the Administrative Agent, who together with
certain additional lenders (collectively with the Administrative Agent, the
"Lenders") are participating in a bank group pursuant to the Second Amended and
Restated Agency Agreement by and among the Lenders party thereto dated July 29,
1999 (as amended, restated or substituted from time to time, the "Agency
Agreement"). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall
have the meanings given to them in the Financing Agreement.
2. Pursuant to the Financing Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to
extend to the Borrower a credit facility in the maximum principal amount of
$400,000,000 or such greater amount as the Lenders may from time to time commit
to lend pursuant to the Agency Agreement (the "Credit Facility") for the
purposes set forth in the Financing Agreement. The Loans and all other
obligations relating to the Credit Facility are evidenced by the Second Amended,
Restated and Increased Master Promissory Note dated July 29, 1999 made by the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent in the maximum principal amount of
$400,000,000 (as amended, restated or substituted from time to time, the
"Note"). The Credit Facility is subject to the terms and conditions of the
Financing Agreement.
3. As a condition precedent to extending the Credit Facility to the
Borrower, the Lenders required that any Wholly Owned Subsidiary or any other
entity affiliated with the Borrower which owns a Facility to be encumbered with
a Deed of Trust to secure the Credit Facility execute this Agreement to evidence
its agreement to the terms of the Financing Documents as applicable.
4. The Additional Borrower hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees
that on and
EXHBIT E-1
<PAGE> 145
as of the date of this Agreement, the Additional Borrower has or will receive
the benefit of certain advances made under the Credit Facility and has granted a
[Mortgage/Deed of Trust], Assignment and Security Agreement of even date
herewith (the "Deed of Trust") covering its Facility located in _____________,
________ and known as "Sunrise of _________" (the "Property") to secure the
Obligations, and as such shall be liable, as provided in the Financing
Documents, for all Obligations (whether incurred or arising prior to, on, or
subsequent to the date hereof) and otherwise bound by all of the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Financing Documents. Without in any way
implying any limitation on any of the provisions of this Agreement, the
Additional Borrower (i) represents and warrants that all of the representations
and warranties contained in the Financing Documents are true and correct on and
as the date hereof as if made on and as of the date hereof, both before and
after giving effect to this Agreement, and that no Event of Default or Default
has occurred and is continuing or exists, or would occur or exist after giving
effect to this Agreement, (ii) promises to pay, jointly and severally with the
Borrower, all sums due or to become due under the Note and the other Financing
Documents, and acknowledges that this Agreement shall constitute an allonge or
other modification to the Note for the purposes of adding the Additional
Borrower as a Borrower, jointly and severally liable with all other Borrowers;
(iii) acknowledges, confirms and agrees that from and after the date hereof
Additional Borrower shall be liable for all Obligations under the Financing
Documents; and (iv) acknowledges, confirms and agrees that from and after the
date hereof the term Borrower as such term (or any similar or related term) is
used in the Note, Financing Agreement, this Agreement or any other Financing
Document shall include the Additional Borrower.
5. The Additional Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders that it will derive benefits, directly and
indirectly, from each advance of the Credit Facility, both in its individual
capacity and as a member of the integrated group of entities which together
comprise the Borrower, and the successful operation of the integrated group is
dependent upon the continued successful performance of the functions of the
integrated group as a whole. Additional Borrower acknowledges and agrees that
the terms of the consolidated financing provided under the Financing Agreement
are more favorable than would otherwise would be obtainable by the Additional
Borrower individually, and the Additional Borrower's additional administrative
and other costs and reduced flexibility associated with individual financing
arrangements which would otherwise be required if obtainable would substantially
reduce the value to the Additional Borrower of the financing.
6. For administrative convenience, the Additional Borrower hereby
irrevocably appoints Sunrise Assisted Living Investments, Inc. ("SALII") as the
Additional Borrower's attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution (with the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in the exercise of its sole
and absolute discretion), in the name of SALII or in the name of the Additional
Borrower or otherwise to take any and all actions with respect to the this
Agreement, the other Financing Documents, the Obligations and/or the Collateral
(including, without limitation, the proceeds thereof) as SALII may so elect from
time to time, including, without limitation, actions to (a) request advances
under the Credit Facility and direct the Administrative Agent to disburse or
credit the proceeds of any Loan directly to an account of
EXHBIT E-2
<PAGE> 146
SALII, any one or more of the other entities comprising the Borrower, the
Additional Borrower or otherwise, which direction shall evidence the making of
such Loan and shall constitute the acknowledgement by the Borrower of the
receipt of the proceeds of such Loan, (b) enter into, execute, deliver, amend,
modify, restate, substitute, extend and/or renew this Agreement, any other

item of payment in the name of the Additional Borrower or in the name of SALII.

time to time through SALII's duly authorized officer, officers or other Person
or Persons designated by SALII to act from time to time on behalf of SALII.

Lenders to make Loans to any one or more of the entities comprising the Borrower

Responsible Officer of SALII under the provisions of the most recent certificate
of authorization and/or incumbency of SALII on file with the Administrative
Agent.
8. The Additional Borrower acknowledges that neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of the Lenders assumes any responsibility or
liability for any errors, mistakes, and/or discrepancies in the oral,
telephonic, written or other transmissions of any instructions, orders, requests
and confirmations between the Administrative Agent and SALII or the
Administrative Agent and any of the Lenders in connection with the Credit
Facility or any other transaction in connection with the provisions of this
Agreement. The Additional Borrower acknowledges that the Borrowers have agreed
among themselves, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have consented to

the other of them to the extent any Borrower incurs Obligations in excess of the
proceeds of the Loans received by, or allocated to, or advanced for the direct
benefit of, such Borrower. The Additional Borrower acknowledges that all such
indebtedness and rights shall be subordinate in priority and payment to the
indefeasible repayment in full in cash of the Obligations, and, unless the
Administrative Agent agrees in writing otherwise, shall not be exercised or
repaid in whole or in part until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly
paid in full in cash. The Additional Borrower agrees that all of such
inter-company indebtedness and rights of contribution are part of the Collateral
and secure the Obligations. The Additional Borrower hereby waives all rights of
counterclaim, recoupment and offset between or among the Borrowers arising on
account of that indebtedness and otherwise. The Additional Borrower shall not
evidence the inter-company indebtedness or rights of contribution by note or
other instrument, and shall not secure such indebtedness or rights of
contribution with any Lien or security.
9. Without in any way implying any limitation on any of the
provisions of this Agreement, the Financing Agreement, or any of the other
Financing Documents, the Additional Borrower hereby assigns, pledges and grants
to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders as security
for the Obligations, and agrees that the Administrative Agent, for the

The Additional Borrower expressly agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in
its sole and absolute discretion, without notice to or further assent of the
Additional Borrower without in any way releasing, affecting or in any way
impairing the obligations and liabilities of the Additional Borrower hereunder:

modify, limit, lessen, reduce, impair, discharge, or otherwise affect the
liability of the Additional Borrower under this Section 12, in any manner

Section 1.8 Rescission of Election to Accelerate.
In the event the Administrative Agent shall elect to accelerate the
maturity of the Note as to the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, such election may be rescinded by written acknowledgment to that
effect by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the acceptance of a
partial payment on account of the Note shall not alone effect or rescind such
election.
Section 1.9 Subordination; Subrogation.
In the event the Guarantor shall advance any sums to the Borrowers, or in
the event the Borrowers has heretofore or shall hereafter become indebted to the
Guarantor before the Obligations have been paid in full, all such advances and
indebtedness shall be subordinate in all respects to the Obligations (the
"Guarantor Subordinated Debt"). Any payment to the Guarantor after the
occurrence of an Event of Default on account of the Guarantor Subordinated Debt
shall be collected and received by the Administrative Agent or the Guarantor in
trust for the Lenders and shall be paid over to the Lenders on account of the
Obligations without impairing or releasing the obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder.
Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the
Guarantor shall not ask, demand, receive, accept, sue for, set off, collect or
enforce the Guarantor Subordinated Debt or any collateral and security therefor.
The Guarantor represents and warrants to the Lenders that the Guarantor
Subordinated Debt is unsecured and agrees not to receive or accept any
collateral or security therefor without the prior written permission of the
Administrative Agent. The Guarantor shall assign, transfer, hypothecate or
dispose of the Guarantor Subordinated Debt while this Agreement is in effect. In
the event of any sale, receivership, insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, or
assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any proceeding by or against the
Borrowers for any relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other laws
relating to the relief of debtors, readjustment of indebtedness,
reorganizations, compositions or extensions, then and in any such event any
payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or
other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon, or with respect to,
all or any part of the Guarantor Subordinated Debt or otherwise shall be paid or
delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application to the
obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor under this Agreement (whether due
or not due and in such order and manner as the Administrative Agent may
determine in the exercise of its sole discretion) until the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder shall have been fully paid and satisfied. The Guarantor
hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Lenders to demand, sue for,
collect and receive every such payment or distribution on account of the
Guarantor Subordinated Debt and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and
take such other proceedings in the name of the Lenders or in the names of the
Guarantor or otherwise, as the Lenders may deem necessary or advisable to carry
out the provisions of this Agreement. The Guarantor hereby agrees to execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent such powers of attorney, assignments,
endorsements or other instruments
7
<PAGE> 8
as may be requested by the Administrative Agent in order to enable the Lenders
to enforce any and all claims upon, or with respect to, the Guarantor
Subordinated Debt, and to collect and receive any and all payments or
distributions which may be payable or deliverable at any time upon or with
respect thereto.
So as to secure the performance by the Guarantor of the provisions of this
Agreement, the Guarantor assigns, pledges and grants to the Lenders a security
interest in, and lien on, the Guarantor Subordinated Debt, all proceeds thereof
and all and any security and collateral therefor. Upon the request of the
Administrative Agent, the Guarantor shall endorse, assign and deliver to the
Administrative Agent all notes, instruments and agreements evidencing, securing,
guarantying or made in connection with the Guarantor Subordinated Debt.
Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary,
if the Guarantor is or at any time becomes an "insider" (as defined from time to
time in Section 101 of the United States Bankruptcy Code) with respect to the
Borrowers, or any other guarantor, then the Guarantor irrevocably and absolutely
waives any and all rights of contribution, indemnification, reimbursement,
subrogation or any similar rights against the Borrowers and/or any such
guarantor, with respect to this Guaranty (including any right of subrogation)
whether such rights arise under an express or implied contract or by operation
of law. It is the intention of the Guarantor that it shall not be deemed to be a
"creditor" (as defined in Section 101 of the United States Bankruptcy Code) of
the Borrowers, or any such guarantor, by reason of the existence of this
Agreement in the event that the Borrowers or any such guarantor, becomes a
debtor in any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code. This waiver is
given to induce the Lenders to make the Loans to the Borrowers.
Section 1.10 Mandatory Arbitration.
Any controversy or claim between or among the parties hereto including but
not limited to those arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any related
agreements or instruments, including any claim based on or arising from an
alleged tort, shall be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with the
Federal Arbitration Act (or if not applicable, the applicable state law), as
promulgated from time to time by the Rules of Practice and Procedure for the
Arbitration of Commercial Disputes of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation
Services, Inc., predecessor in interest to Endispute, Inc., doing business as
"J.A.M.S./Endispute" and the "Special Rules" set forth below. In the event of
any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. Judgment upon any
arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any party to
this Guaranty may bring an action, including a summary or expedited proceeding,
to compel arbitration of any controversy or claim to which this agreement
applies in any court having jurisdiction over such action. The foregoing
notwithstanding, in a claim pertaining to a Deed of Trust or Collateral located
in a state with "one-action" rule which might limit to Lenders' remedies, the
Administrative Agent shall have the right in its sole discretion to restrict the
application of this arbitration provision to the extent that it would otherwise
result in a limitation on the Lenders' remedies in such state.
(i) Special Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in Fairfax County,
Virginia and administered by J.A.M.S./Endispute who will appoint an arbitrator
pursuant to its rules of
8
<PAGE> 9
practice and procedure; if J.A.M.S./Endispute is unable or legally precluded
from administering the arbitration, then the American Arbitration Association
will serve. All arbitration hearings will be commenced within ninety (90)
calendar days of the demand for arbitration; further, the arbitrator shall only,
upon a showing of cause, be permitted to extend the commencement of such hearing
for up to an additional sixty (60) calendar days.
(ii) Reservations of Rights. Nothing in this Guaranty shall be deemed to
(i) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable statutes of limitation
or repose and any waivers contained in this Guaranty; or (ii) be a waiver by the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders of the protection afforded to it by 12
U.S.C. Sec. 91 or any substantially equivalent state law; or (iii) limit the
right of Lender (A) to exercise self help remedies such as (but not limited to)
setoff, or (B) to foreclose against any real or personal property collateral, or
(C) to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary remedies such as (but not
limited to) injunctive relief or the appointment of a receiver. The Lenders may
exercise such self help rights, foreclose upon such property, or obtain such
provisional or ancillary remedies before, during or after the pendency of any
arbitration proceeding brought pursuant to this Guaranty. At the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders' option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may
be accomplished by any of the following: the exercise of a power of sale under
the deed of trust or mortgage, or by judicial sale under the deed of trust or
mortgage, or by judicial foreclosure. Neither the exercise of self help remedies
nor the institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional
or ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any party,
including the claimant in any such action, to arbitrate the merits of the
controversy or claim occasioning resort to such remedies. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the Lender exercises such self help remedies or
other actions, the Guarantor has not waived any of its rights to seek legal or
equitable relief to defend against the Administrative Agent's or Lenders'
exercise of such self help remedies or other actions. No provision in the
Financing Documents regarding submission to jurisdiction and/or venue in any
court is intended or shall be construed to be in derogation of the provisions in
any Financing Document for arbitration of any controversy or claim.
(iii) Confidentiality. Any arbitration proceeding, award, findings of fact,
conclusions of law, or other information concerning such arbitration matters
shall be held in confidence by the parties and shall not be disclosed except to
each party's employees or agents as shall be reasonably necessary for such party
to conduct its business; provided, however, that either party may disclose such
information for auditing purposes by independent certified accounts, for
complying with applicable governmental laws, regulations or court orders, or
that is or becomes part of the public domain through no breach of this
Agreement.

Obligations, then, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Lenders, all of
the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable; and
(d) if the affected provision or part thereof does not pertain to
repayment of the Obligations, but operates or would prospectively operate to
invalidate this Agreement in whole or in part, then such provision or part
thereof only shall be void, and the remainder of this Agreement shall remain
operative and in full force and effect.
Section 4.5 Assignments by Lenders.
The Lenders may, without notice to, or consent of, the Guarantor, sell,

this Agreement and the Note, and each such Person or Persons shall have the
right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Financing

is an affiliate or successor of the Lenders, such Lender shall give notice to

successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders and their
respective successors and assigns.

shall continue in full force and effect so long as any of the Obligations are
outstanding and unpaid. From time to time upon the Administrative Agent's
request, and as a
20
<PAGE> 21
condition of the release of any one or more of the Security Documents, the
Guarantor and other Persons obligated with respect to the Obligations shall
provide the Administrative Agent with such acknowledgments and agreements as the
Administrative Agent may require to the effect that there exists no defenses,
rights of setoff or recoupment, claims, counterclaims, actions or causes of
action of any kind or nature whatsoever against the Lenders, their respective
agents and others, or to the extent there are, the same are waived and released.
Section 4.8 Enforcement Costs.
The Guarantor agrees to pay to the Lenders on demand all Enforcement Costs,
together with interest thereon from the date incurred or advanced until paid in
full at a per annum rate of interest equal at all times to the Post-Default

fees referred to in this Section. The provisions of this Section shall survive

Section 4.9 Applicable Law.
As a material inducement to the Lenders to enter into this Agreement, the
Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Financing Documents, including, this
Agreement, shall be governed by the Laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia as if

delivered, administered and performed solely within the Commonwealth of Virginia
even though for the convenience and at the request of the Borrowers, one or more
of the Financing Documents may be executed elsewhere. The Lenders acknowledge,
however, that remedies under certain of the Financing Documents which relate to
property outside the Commonwealth of Virginia may be subject to the laws of the
state in which the property is located.

Section 4.12 No Partnership - Third Parties.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed in a manner to
create any relationship between the Guarantor and any of the Lenders other than
the relationship of guarantor and lenders and the Guarantor and the Lenders
shall not be considered partners or co-venturers for any purpose. The terms and
provisions of this Agreement are for the benefit of the Lenders and their
respective successors, assigns, endorsees and transferees and all persons
claiming under or through it and no other person shall have any right or cause
of action on account thereof. The Lenders have no obligation to make any advance
of any Loans for the benefit of the Guarantor; the Guarantor has no beneficial
interest in the proceeds of the Loans or rights or claims under the Financing
Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents. The obligations and
liabilities of the Guarantor shall in no manner be affected by the actual use of
the proceeds of the Loans or whether the Lenders waive any or all of the
conditions to advances set forth in the Financing Agreement.
Section 4.13 Entire Agreement.
The Financing Documents shall completely and fully supersede all prior
agreements, both written and oral, between the Lenders and the Borrowers
relating to the Loans. Neither the Lenders, the Borrowers nor the Guarantor
shall hereafter have any rights under such prior agreements but shall look
solely to the Financing Documents for definition and determination of all of
their respective rights, liabilities and responsibilities relating to the
Obligations.
Section 4.14 Consent to Jurisdiction.
The Guarantor irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any state or
federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Virginia over any suit, action, or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The Guarantor
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that
it may now or hereafter have to laying the venue of any such suit, action, or
proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action,
or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. Final judgment in any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any
such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Guarantor and may be
enforced in any court to the jurisdiction of which the Guarantor is subject, by
a suit upon such judgment provided that service of process is effected upon the
Guarantor in a manner specified in this Agreement or as otherwise permitted by
applicable law.
Section 4.15 Service of Process.
The Guarantor hereby consents to process being served in any suit, action,
or proceeding instituted in connection with this Agreement by (a) the mailing of
a copy thereof by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to
it at its address designated in Section 4.1 hereof and (b) serving a copy
thereof upon Wayne G. Tatusko, Esquire, 7929 Westpark Drive, McLean, Virginia
22102, the agent hereby designated and appointed as its agent for service of
process. The Guarantor irrevocably agrees that such service (i) shall be deemed
in every respect to be effective service of process upon it in any such suit,
action, or proceeding and (ii) shall, to
22
<PAGE> 23
the fullest extent permitted by law, be taken and held to be valid personal
service upon the Guarantor. Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of
the Lenders to serve process in any manner otherwise permitted by law or limit
the right of the Lenders otherwise to bring proceedings against the Guarantor in
the courts of any other jurisdiction or jurisdictions.
Section 4.16 WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.
THE GUARANTOR AND THE LENDERS HEREBY JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING NOT REQUIRED TO BE ARBITRATED PURSUANT TO THE
TERMS HEREOF TO WHICH THE GUARANTOR AND THE LENDERS, OR ANY OF THEM, MAY BE
PARTIES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO (A) THIS AGREEMENT, (B) ANY
OF THE FINANCING DOCUMENTS, OR (C) THE COLLATERAL. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A
WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OF ALL CLAIMS AGAINST ALL PARTIES TO SUCH ACTIONS OR
PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING CLAIMS AGAINST PARTIES WHO ARE NOT PARTIES TO THIS
AGREEMENT.
This waiver is knowingly, willingly and voluntarily made by the Guarantor
and the Lenders, and the Guarantor and the Lenders hereby represent that no
representations of fact or opinion have been made by any individual to induce
this waiver of trial by jury or to in any way modify or nullify its effect. The
Guarantor and the Lenders further represent that they have been represented in
the signing of this Agreement and in the making of this waiver by independent
legal counsel, selected of their own free will, and that they have had the
opportunity to discuss this waiver with counsel.
Section 4.17 Liability of the Lenders.
The Guarantor hereby agrees that the Lenders shall not be chargeable for
any negligence, mistake, act or omission of any accountant, examiner, agency or
attorney employed by the Lenders in making examinations, investigations or
collections, or otherwise in perfecting, maintaining, protecting or realizing
upon any lien or security interest or any other interest in the Collateral or
other security for the Obligations.
By inspecting the Collateral or any other properties of the Borrowers or by
accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled
by the Borrowers or to be given to the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement or any
of the other Financing Documents, the Lenders shall not be deemed to have
warranted or represented the condition, sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or
legal effect of the same, and such acceptance or approval shall not constitute
any warranty or representation with respect thereto by the Lenders.
Section 4.18 Reinstatement.
If at any time any payment, or portion thereof, made by, or for the account
of, the Borrowers or the Guarantor on account of any of the obligations and
liabilities arising hereunder or under any of the Financing Documents is set
aside by any court or trustee having jurisdiction
23
<PAGE> 24
as a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance or must otherwise be restored
or returned by the Lenders to the Borrowers or to the Guarantor under any
insolvency, bankruptcy or other federal and/or state laws or as a result of any
dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrowers or upon, or as a
result of, the appointment of any receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or
trustee, or similar officer for, the Borrowers or any substantial part of its
properties or assets, the Guarantor hereby agrees that this Agreement shall
continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may
be, all as though such payment(s) had not been made.
Section 4.19 Complete and Final Expression of Agreement.
This Agreement is intended by the Lenders and the Guarantor to be a
complete, exclusive and final expression of the agreements contained herein. No
course of dealing, course of performance or trade usage, and no parol evidence
of any nature, shall be used to supplement or modify any terms of this
Agreement. The Lenders and the Guarantor further agrees that there are no
conditions to the full effectiveness of this Agreement, unless otherwise
expressly stated herein. The Guarantor has unconditionally delivered this
Agreement to the Administrative Agent, and failure to sign this or any other
guarantee by any other person shall not discharge the liability of the Guarantor
hereunder.
