             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - REPORTING ENTITY

  Atria Communities, Inc. ("Atria" or the "Company") is a leading national
provider of assisted and independent living communities for the elderly.  At
September 30, 1997, Atria operated 37 communities located in 17 states with a
total of 3,890 units, including 1,878 assisted living units and 2,012
independent living units.

  In May 1996, the Board of Directors of Vencor, Inc. ("Vencor") authorized
management to establish Atria as a wholly owned subsidiary to operate Vencor's
assisted and independent living business.  As part of that transaction,
management consummated an initial public offering (the "IPO") of 5,750,000
shares of Atria's common stock (including 750,000 shares in connection with the
exercise of the underwriters' overallotment option) in the third quarter of
1996.  At September 30, 1997, Vencor owned 10,000,000 shares, or 42.8%, of
Atria's outstanding common stock.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

  For periods prior to the IPO, the accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements reflect the operations of the assisted and independent
living business of Vencor that were transferred to Atria at or prior to
completion of the IPO.  These financial statements have been derived from the
consolidated financial statements of Vencor and reflect the operations of Atria
as a separate entity for all periods presented.

  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include
all of the disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting
principles or those normally made in Atria's annual audited financial
statements.  Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in
conjunction with Atria's audited consolidated financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 1996 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to Atria's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with Atria's customary accounting practices and have not
been audited.  Management believes that the financial information included
herein reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of interim
results and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.

  Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year
presentation.

NOTE 3 - REVENUES

  Revenues are recognized when services are rendered and consist of resident
fees and fees for other ancillary services.  Agreements with residents are
generally on a month to month basis.  Revenues from management contracts are
recognized in the period earned in accordance with the terms of the management
agreement.

  Substantially all revenues are derived from private pay sources.  A summary of
revenues for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
follows (dollars in thousands):

NOTE 4 - NON-RECURRING TRANSACTIONS
 
  In June 1996, Atria recorded a non-recurring pre-tax charge of $1.1 million in
connection with the settlement of certain litigation involving a minority
partner at one of its communities.

NOTE 5 - SECONDARY STOCK OFFERING

  In July 1997, the Company completed a secondary offering of 6,900,000 shares
of common stock at $14.00 per share (the "Secondary Offering").  The net
proceeds from the Secondary Offering (approximately $91.0 million) are being
used to finance the development and acquisition of assisted living communities
and for general corporate purposes.

NOTE 6 - EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

  Shares used in the computation of earnings per common share include 10,000,000
shares of common stock issued to Vencor for its contribution of assets to Atria
and the assumption by Atria of related liabilities and shares of restricted
stock issued at the consummation date of the IPO. In addition, for the quarter
and nine months ended September 30, 1997, the computation also gives effect to
the 5,750,000 shares issued in connection with the IPO; 636,487 shares issued in
connection with the acquisition of the American ElderServe Corporation
("American ElderServe"); 6,900,000 shares issued in connection with the
Secondary Offering; the exercise of stock options and the dilution associated
with the issuance of common stock options.  Share and per share amounts for
periods prior to the IPO are presented on a pro forma basis.

  In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 128 "Earnings Per Share," which will require Atria to change the current
method of computing earnings per common share and restate all prior periods.
Pursuant to Statement No. 128, Atria is required, among other things, to
calculate primary earnings per common share by December 31, 1997, in such a
manner as to exclude the dilutive effect of common stock options.  The change in
the method of calculation is not expected to have a material impact on
previously reported earnings per common share.

NOTE 7 - AMERICAN ELDERSERVE ACQUISITION

  On April 1, 1997, Atria acquired American ElderServe, an operator of assisted
living communities, for a combination of Atria's common stock, cash and
assumption of debt valued at approximately $30.7 million.  At the time of the
acquisition, American ElderServe operated 12 assisted living communities
consisting of 503 units and also had six additional communities under
construction containing 345 units scheduled to open in 1997.  A summary of the
American ElderServe acquisition follows (dollars in thousands):

  The purchase price paid in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets
acquired (to be amortized over 30 years by the straight-line method) aggregated
$5.7 million.

transaction occurred on January 1, 1996, follows (dollars in thousands, except
per share amounts):

</TABLE>

  Pro forma income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 includes
non-recurring compensation expense incurred by American ElderServe in connection
with accelerated vesting of certain stock options exercised in conjunction with
the American ElderServe acquisition, the effect of which reduced pro forma net
income by $2.2 million or $0.12 per common share.

  In connection with the American ElderServe acquisition, the Company entered
into an agreement with Elder HealthCare Developers, L.L.C. ("Elder HealthCare"),
a limited liability company owned 10% by Atria and 90% by Assisted Care
Developers, L.L.C. ("Assisted Care Developers"), to develop at least 15 assisted
living communities for the Company in the southeastern United States over the
next three years.  Assisted Care Developers is wholly-owned by George A.
Schoepf, former Executive Vice President of American ElderServe and the brother
of Andy L. Schoepf, the Company's Chief Operating Officer.

NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

  In October 1997, the Company completed a $125,000,000 private offering (the
"Convertible Notes Offering") of 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2002 (the
"Notes").  Net proceeds from this offering approximated $121.6 million and will
be used to finance the development and acquisition of assisted living
communities, for working capital and for general corporate purposes.  The Notes
are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at $20.864 per share
(on or after 90 days following the last date of initial issuance of the Notes),
and may not be redeemed by the Company prior to October 15, 2000.
 
  Additionally, in October 1997, the Company purchased the assets of a
retirement community in Stamford, Connecticut for approximately $14.0 million.
This community was previously owned by Vencor and has been managed by the
Company since April 1997.

    ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                        
  Atria is a leading national provider of assisted and independent living
communities for the elderly, operating at September 30, 1997, 37 communities
comprising 3,890 units located in 17 states.  At  September 30, 1997, Atria had
33 assisted living communities comprising approximately 2,318 units under
development, including 17 communities under construction.

PLANNED EXPANSION AND DEVELOPMENT

  Atria intends to expand its business by developing or acquiring 60 to 85
additional assisted living communities consisting of approximately 5,400 to
7,650 units by the year 2000 (including the 33 communities currently being
developed and the communities developed and acquired since the IPO) and
converting at least 750 of its existing independent living units to assisted
living units by the year 2000. The Company will pursue acquisitions in
conjunction with its development efforts in order to cluster assisted living
communities in targeted markets.  The estimated cost to construct, equip or
otherwise acquire such communities could approximate $375.0 to $550.0 million,
which is substantially in excess of the Company's present capital resources.

  The Company currently estimates that the net proceeds from the Secondary
Offering and the Convertible Notes Offering of July 1997 and October 1997,
respectively, together with existing capital resources and financing commitments
under its $200.0 million bank credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), will be
sufficient to fund its development and acquisition program through mid-1999.
Available sources of future capital may include, among other things, equity,
public or private debt and additional bank revolving credits.  However, there
can be no assurance that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to
Atria, nor can there be any assurance that additional financing will not be
required prior to 1999.
 
  Newly opened communities are expected to incur operating losses until
sufficient occupancy levels and operating efficiencies are achieved.  Based upon
historical experience, management believes that a typical community will achieve
its targeted occupancy levels approximately 12 months from commencement of
operations.  Accordingly, Atria will require substantial amounts of liquidity to
maintain the operations of newly opened communities.  In addition, if sufficient
occupancy levels related to newly opened communities are not achieved within a
reasonable period, the results of operations, financial position and liquidity
of Atria could be materially and adversely impacted.

  The statements contained under "Planned Expansion and Development" are
"forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Act of 1995.  Such forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual
results, performance or achievements of the Company to differ materially from
any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements.  Such factors include, among other things: (i) the
successful and timely implementation of the Company's acquisition and
development strategy; (ii) the Company's ability to obtain financing on
acceptable terms to finance its growth strategy and to operate within the
limitations imposed by financing arrangements;  (iii) the cost of completing the
Company's acquisition and development plans; and (iv) other factors referenced  
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1996, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not
undertake to update any forward-looking statement that may be made from time to
time by, or on behalf, of the Company.

  Revenues increased 36.0% in the third quarter of 1997 to $17.7 million from
$13.0 million in the third quarter of 1996, and revenues increased 27.1% for the
nine month period of 1997 to $48.9 million from $38.5 million in the same period
a year ago. The increase in the third quarter of 1997 was primarily attributable
to price increases ($600,000), growth in ancillary services ($200,000) and the
acquisition of American ElderServe and newly constructed communities ($3.9
million).  The increase for the first nine months of 1997 was primarily
attributable to price increases ($1.9 million), growth in ancillary services
($500,000) and the acquisition of American ElderServe and newly constructed
communities ($8.0 million).  Same community occupancy was 95.0% and 96.6% for
the third quarter of 1997 and 1996, respectively and 95.2% and 96.1% for the
first nine months of 1997 and 1996, respectively.

  Compensation costs as a percentage of revenues increased in both the third
quarter and nine month periods of 1997 compared to the same periods a year ago.
Increases in such costs resulted primarily from the American ElderServe
acquisition and growth in administrative expenses associated with Atria's
expansion and development program and overhead costs associated with development
communities that opened during 1997.

  In June 1996, Atria recorded a non-recurring pre-tax charge of $1.1 million in
connection with the settlement of certain litigation involving a minority
partner at one of its communities.

  Operating income increased 23.3% to $3.2 million in the third quarter of 1997
compared to $2.6 million in the same period of 1996.  For the nine month period,
operating income grew 29.9% to $9.6 million in 1997 compared to $7.4 million in
1996. Excluding the effect of non-recurring transactions, operating income
increased 13.7% for the nine month period of 1997.  In both the third quarter
and nine month periods, operating income increased primarily as a result of
improved same community operations as well as the American ElderServe
acquisition.  However, operating income in the third quarter and nine month
period was adversely impacted by increased administrative costs incurred in
connection with Atria's expansion and development program.

  Income before extraordinary loss increased 69.0% to $2.0 million in the third
quarter of 1997 compared to $1.2 million for the same period a year ago, and
73.3% to $5.1 million for the first nine months of 1997 from $2.9 million for
the same period last year.  Excluding the effect of non-recurring transactions,
income before extraordinary loss grew 42.8% for the nine month period of 1997 as
compared to the same period a year ago. The improvement was primarily
attributable to growth in operating income and a reduction in net interest
expense primarily as a result of the Secondary Offering.

    ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                       RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  (CONTINUED)

  For periods prior to the IPO, certain allocations and estimates have been made
by management in the consolidated financial statements to present the historical
financial position and results of operations of Atria as a separate entity.
Upon consummation of the IPO, Atria became contractually obligated to pay Vencor
for certain centralized management and administrative services underlying such
historical allocations and estimates. The operating results of Atria include
corporate costs and expenses of Vencor aggregating $93,000 and $157,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and $323,000 and
$457,000 for the respective nine month periods.  Management believes that these
allocations reasonably reflect the proportional costs incurred by Vencor on
behalf of Atria.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

  Net cash provided by operations totaled $8.5 million and $10.1 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Cash flows from
operations decreased primarily as a result of reductions in trade accounts
payable.

  Net cash used in investing activities totaled $56.2 million and $2.7 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Atria's
investing activities included capital expenditures related to the development of
new communities and expansion of existing operations totaling $36.2 million and
$2.5 million for the respective periods.  In addition, Atria acquired two
communities for $8.0 million and American ElderServe for a combination of $8.7
million cash, common stock and assumption of debt during 1997.

  Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $62.1 million and $55.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
1997 amount includes the net proceeds of approximately $91.0 million from the
Secondary Offering, offset by the payment of $33.3 million of long-term debt
assumed which includes, among other things, the repayment of $14.4 million in
the American ElderServe acquisition, resulting in the extraordinary loss on
extinguishment of debt, net of income taxes, of $199,000, and the repayment of
the $14.0 million note payable to Vencor.

  The Company's working capital totaled $74.0 million at September 30, 1997,
compared to  $45.6 million at December 31, 1996. The increase in working capital
resulted principally from the net proceeds received from the Secondary Offering
offset by the cost of acquisitions during such period, including the repayment
of long-term debt, continued development and cost of expansion activities. In
connection with its expansion and development plans, the Company maintains the
Credit Facility.  At September 30, 1997, available borrowings under the Credit
Facility approximated $113.0 million.

  Capital expenditures related to acquisitions of existing communities,
construction of new communities and expansion and improvement of existing
communities could approximate $100.0 to $110.0 million in 1997. Additionally,
Atria is committed to finance the development costs of its joint venture with
Elder HealthCare Developers through the Credit Facility.  The Company does not
anticipate such commitment will exceed $10 million in 1997.  Although management
believes that cash flows from operations, the proceeds from the Secondary
Offering and Convertible Notes Offering and available borrowings under the
Credit Facility are sufficient to meet these capital needs, Atria will require
substantial additional financing to continue its growth plans beyond mid-1999.
The Company currently has under development 33 sites for new assisted living
communities, 17 of which are under construction.  At September 30, 1997, the
additional cost to complete and equip the 17 communities under construction
approximated $45.0 million.

  Atria plans to retain future earnings to finance the growth of its business
rather than to pay cash dividends.  Payment of cash dividends in the future will
depend on the financial condition, results of operations and capital
requirements of Atria as well as other factors deemed relevant by the Board of
Directors.  The Credit Facility also prohibits Atria from paying cash dividends.

  The Credit Facility contains financial covenants and other restrictions that:
(i) require Atria to meet certain financial tests; (ii) require that there be no
change of control of Atria; (iii) limit, among other things, the ability of
Atria and certain of its subsidiaries to borrow additional funds, dispose of
certain assets and engage in mergers and other business combinations; (iv)
prohibit distributions to Atria's stockholders; and (v) require that Vencor own
at least 30.0% of Atria's common stock.

Vencor has guaranteed for four years certain borrowings by Atria under the
Credit Facility in amounts up to $100.0 million in the first year following the
IPO, declining to $75.0 million, $50.0 million and $25.0 million in each
respective year thereafter.  Atria was in compliance with all debt covenants at
September 30, 1997.

defined therein, or the definitions of which are incorporated therein, being 
used herein as so defined).

     (2)  The Borrower desires to issue up to $175 million of convertible 
subordinated notes due 2002 to several initial purchasers who propose to resell
such notes to "qualified institutional buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A under

institutional "accredited investors" within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1),(2),
(3) or (7) under such Securities Act.

     (3)  The Borrower, such Agents and the Lenders party hereto desire to amend
certain of the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement in order to permit 
the issuance of such convertible subordinated notes, all as more fully set forth
below.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

     SECTION 1.  AMENDMENTS TO CREDIT AGREEMENT.

     1.1  Indebtedness.  Effective on the Effective Date (as hereinafter 
defined), clause (c) of section 8.4 of the Credit Agreement is amended to 
include reference to the Convertible Subordinated Notes (as hereinafter 
defined), so that as so amended such clause reads in its entirety as follows:

          (c)  the following:

               (i)  Existing Indebtedness, and any refinancing, extension, 
          renewal or refunding of any such Existing Indebtedness, provided that
          (A) the aggregate principal amount of any such Indebtedness in respect
          of Residential Mortgage Bond programs of the Borrower and its
          Subsidiaries (as described in the Registration Statement) currently in
          existence is not increased above $50,000,000, and (B) the principal
          amount of any other such Existing Indebtedness is not increased:

               (ii) the American ElderServe Assumed Debt (including any guaranty
          by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of the American ElderServe
          Assumed Debt), provided that the entire American ElderServe Assumed
          Debt (and any such guaranty), other than the Suburban Lodge Debt (and
          any such guaranty in respect thereof), is retired, repaid or prepaid
<PAGE>
 
          in full within 90 days following the date the American ElderServe
          Acquisition is completed and not refinanced in whole or in part with 
          Indebtedness other than Loans made hereunder;

               (iii)  Contingent Obligations of the Borrower and its 
          Subsidiaries in respect of the American ElderServe Assumed Finance
          Lease Obligations covering not more than $25,000,000 of Approved Costs
          (as defined in the documents governing the American ElderServe Assumed
          Finance Lease Obligations as in effect on the date the American
          ElderServe Acquisition is completed); and

               (iv)  the Convertible Subordinated Notes; and any refinancing,
          extension, renewal or refunding thereof effected in compliance with
          the applicable provisions of section 8.7;

     1.2.  Prepayments and Refinancings. Effective on the Effective Date, clause
(c) of section 8.7 of the Credit Agreement is redesignated as clause (d) and
clause (b) of section 8.7 of the Credit Agreement is replaced with the following
clauses (b) and (c):

          (b) make (or give any notice in respect thereof) any voluntary or 
     optional payment or prepayment or redemption or acquisition for value of
     (including, without limitation, by way of depositing with the trustee with
     respect thereto money or securities before due for the purpose of paying
     when due) or exchange of, or refinance or refund, any Convertible
     Subordinated Notes, or any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness consisting
     of the Notes issued hereunder) which has previously refinanced any of the
     Convertible Subordinated Notes; provided that the Borrower may refinance
     or refund any Convertible Subordinated Notes or any such Indebtedness if
     (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount thereof is not increased,
     (ii) the weighted average life to maturity thereof (computed in accordance
     with standard financial practice) is not reduced, and (iii) any such
     refinancing, extension, renewal or refunding of thereof involves terms of
     subordination no less favorable to the Lenders than those originally
     applicable to the Convertible Subordinated Notes;

          (c) amend or modify (or permit the amendment or modification of) any 
     of the terms or provisions of or terminate (other than any scheduled
     termination in accordance with the terms thereof) (i) in any manner adverse
     to the interests of the Lenders any documents or agreement governing any
     Existing Indebtedness or the Convertible Subordinated Notes, or (ii) in any
     manner that has, or which would reasonably be expected to have, a Material
     Adverse Effect, any Acquisition Document; and/or
    
     1.3.  Definitions.  Effective on the Effective Date, section 10 of the 
Credit Agreement is amended to include the following definition in its 
appropriate alphabetic order:

          "Convertible Subordinated Notes" shall mean up to $175,000,000
     aggregate principal amount of Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2002,
     issued by the Borrower as contemplated by the Offering Memorandum dated
     September 26, 1997, a true and correct draft of which has been furnished to
     the Lenders, provided that the terms of subordination applicable to such
     Notes are not changed from the description thereof contained in such draft
     in a manner adverse to the interests of the Lenders.

     SECTION 2.  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

     The Borrower represents and warrants as follows:

     2.1.  Authorization, Validity and Binding Effect.  This Amendment has been 
duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Borrower, 
has been duly executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer or officers of
the Borrower, and constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Borrower, 
enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms.

                                       2




<PAGE>
 
 
     2.2.  Representations and Warranties True and Correct. The representations
and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Credit Agreement, as amended
hereby, are true and correct on and as of the date hereof as though made on and
as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such representations and
warranties expressly relate to a specified date, in which case such
representations and warranties are hereby reaffirmed as true and correct when
made.

     2.3.  No Event of Default, etc. No condition or event has occurred or
exists which constitutes or which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would
constitute an Event of Default.

     2.4.  Compliance. The Borrower is in full compliance with all covenants and
agreements contained in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and the other
Credit Documents to which it is a party.

     2.5.  Offering Memorandum. The Borrower has delivered or caused to be
delivered to the Lenders prior to the execution hereof by any Lender a current
draft of the Offering Memorandum pursuant to which the Convertible Subordinated
Notes are to be offered. The terms of the Convertible Notes as originally issued
will be as described in such draft Offering Memorandum (with blank information
as to interest rate, payment dates, etc, appropriately completed, and any
changes in principal amount not involving an increase in the aggregate principal
amount above $175 million being permitted), but with no changes therein as to
subordination, redemption or maturity matters which are adverse to the Lenders.

     2.6.  Senior Indebtedness, etc. Loans outstanding under the Credit
Agreement, as well as reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit
issued under the Credit Agreement, and all related obligations in respect of
principal, interest, fees, costs, enforcement expenses and indemnity obligations
under the Credit Agreement, will constitute "Senior Indebtedness" as defined in
the Indenture governing the Convertible Subordinated Notes, and the Senior
Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement will constitute "Designated Senior
Indebtedness" as defined in such Indenture.

     SECTION 3. RATIFICATIONS.

     The terms and provisions set forth in this Amendment shall modify and
supersede all inconsistent terms and provisions set forth in the Credit
Agreement, and except as expressly modified and superseded by this Amendment,
the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement are ratified and confirmed and
shall continue in full force and effect.

     SECTION 4. BINDING EFFECT.

     This Amendment shall become effective if and when, on a date (the
"Effective Date") on or prior to November 30, 1997, the following conditions
shall have been satisfied:

          (a) this Amendment shall have been executed by the Borrower, the
     Administrative Agent, the Managing Agent and the Documentation Agent, and
     counterparts hereof as so executed shall have been delivered to the
     Administrative Agent;
     
          (b) the Acknowledgment and Consent appended hereto shall have been 
     executed by the Credit Parties named therein, and counterparts thereof as
     so executed shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent;

          (c) the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by the Required
     Lenders that such Lenders have executed this Amendment (which notification
     may be by facsimile or other written confirmation of such execution); and

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
          (d) the Borrower shall have completed the initial issuance of the 
     Convertible Subordinated Notes, without giving effect to any over-allotment
     option; and shall have so notified the Administrative Agent thereof;

and thereafter this Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Managing Agent, the Documentation
Agent and each Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
After this Amendment becomes effective, the Managing Agent will promptly
furnish a copy of this Amendment to each Lender and the Borrower and confirm the
specific Effective Date hereof.

     SECTION 5.  MISCELLANEOUS.

     5.1.  Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and
warranties made in this Amendment shall survive the execution and delivery of
this Amendment, and no investigation by any Agent or any Lender or any
subsequent Loan or other Credit Event shall affect the representations and
warranties or the right of any Agent or any Lender to rely upon them.

     5.2.  Reference to Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement and any and all
other agreements, instruments or documentation now or hereafter executed and
delivered pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, are
hereby amended so that any reference therein to the Credit Agreement shall mean
a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

     5.3.  Expenses. As provided in the Credit Agreement, but without limiting
any terms or provisions thereof, the Borrower agrees to pay on demand all costs
and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Managing Agent or the
Documentation Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, and
execution of this Amendment, including without limitation the costs and fees of
the Documentation Agent's and the Administrative Agent's special legal counsel,
regardless of whether this Amendment becomes effective in accordance with the
terms hereof, and all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent,
the Managing Agent, the Documentation Agent or any Lender in connection with the
enforcement or preservation of any rights under the Credit Agreement, as amended
hereby.

     5.4.  Severability. Any term or provision of this Amendment held by a court
of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable shall not impair or
invalidate the remainder of this Amendment and the effect thereof shall be
confined to the term or provision so held to be invalid or unenforceable.

     5.5.  Applicable Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

     5.6.  Headings. The headings, captions and arrangements used in this 
Amendment are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of 
this Amendment.

     5.7.  Entire Agreement. This Amendment is specifically limited to the
matters expressly set forth herein. This Amendment and all other instruments,
agreements and documentation executed and delivered in connection with this
Amendment embody the final, entire agreement among the parties hereto with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all prior
commitments, agreements, representations and understandings, whether written or
oral, relating to the matters covered by this Amendment, and may not be
contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral
agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. There are no oral agreements
among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof or any other
subject matter relating to the Credit Agreement.

     5.8.  Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed by the parties hereto
separately in one or more counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be
deemed to be an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute
one and the same agreement.

                                       4
