PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed
information and the financial statements, including the notes thereto,
appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. Except as otherwise indicated, the
information contained in this Prospectus assumes (i) the consummation at the
completion of the Offering of the transactions described herein resulting in
the formation of the Company, including, but not limited to, the contribution
to the Company of the capital stock of BLC Property, Inc., certain interests in
the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities and the operations relating to the
senior and assisted living division of The Prime Group, Inc. and its affiliates
(collectively, "PGI"), the acquisition of the Acquired Facilities (as defined
herein) and the Company has entered the management contracts for its two
managed facilities (collectively, the "Formation") and (ii) the Underwriters'
over-allotment option is not exercised. Unless the context requires otherwise,
all references to the "Company" or "Brookdale" in this Prospectus mean the
Company, its predecessors and those entities owned or controlled by the Company
as though the Formation had occurred. See "Risk Factors--Lack of Arm's Length
Negotiations" and "--Uncertainty of Proposed Acquisition," "The Company and the
Formation" and "Certain Transactions."
Brookdale Living Communities, Inc. ("Brookdale" or the "Company") provides
senior and assisted living services to the elderly through its facilities
located in urban and suburban areas of major metropolitan markets. The Company
operates nine senior and assisted living facilities containing a total of 1,968
units which, as of December 31, 1996, were approximately 99% occupied. The
Company owns four of such facilities, leases three facilities under a long-term
net operating lease and manages two other facilities pursuant to management
contracts. In addition, the Company has entered an agreement to acquire a
facility containing 200 units, the closing of which acquisition is expected to
occur within 60 days following the completion of the Offering. With facilities
that contain an average of 220 units, the Company believes it is able to
achieve economies of scale within its facilities and provide senior and
assisted living services in a cost-effective manner. The Company plans to
acquire or lease approximately three to five facilities per year containing an
aggregate of approximately 600 to 1,000 units, and to commence development of
at least two new facilities per year containing approximately 200 units each.
The Company has entered agreements to acquire development sites located in Glen
Ellyn, Illinois, Southfield, Michigan and Austin, Texas, the closings of which
are expected to occur within 12 months following the completion of the
Offering. The Company had pro forma revenues and a net loss for the year ended
December 31, 1996 of approximately $41.5 million and $602,000, respectively.
The Company estimates that approximately 99.9% of the Company's pro forma
revenues are derived from private pay sources.
Brookdale's facilities are designed for middle to upper income residents who
desire an upscale residential environment providing the highest level of
quality, care and value. Brookdale's objective is to allow its residents to age
in place by providing them with a continuum of senior and assisted living
services. By providing residents a range of service options as their needs
change, the Company seeks to achieve a greater continuity of care, thereby
enabling seniors to maintain their residency for a longer time period. The
ability to allow residents to age in place is beneficial to Brookdale's
residents as well as their families who are burdened with care option decisions
for their elderly relatives. In addition to studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom
units, the Company provides all residents with basic services, such as meal
service, 24-hour emergency response, housekeeping, concierge services,
transportation and recreational activities. For residents who require
additional supplemental care services, the Company provides assistance with
certain activities of daily living. The average age of Brookdale's residents is
approximately 82 years old, and many of these residents require some level of
assistance with activities of daily living. Supplemental care services are
provided either by the Company or by outside services or agencies. The Company
intends to bring "in-house" as many of these services as practicable and has
established a program providing various levels and combinations of these
services called "Personally Yours"SM.
The Company's operating philosophy is to provide the highest quality of
personalized care for its residents in order to enhance their physical and
mental well-being. A key element of this philosophy is to establish
affiliations between Brookdale's facilities and local hospitals. Each of the
Hallmark facility in Chicago, Illinois,
3
<PAGE>
the Heritage facility in Des Plaines, Illinois and the Devonshire facility in
Lisle, Illinois (collectively, the "Original Facilities"), have affiliations
with local hospitals. In addition, the Company is currently pursuing hospital
affiliations for the Gables at Brighton, Springs of East Mesa, Hawthorn Lakes
and Edina Park Plaza facilities and intends to arrange such affiliations for
facilities that it acquires, develops or leases in the future. Hospital
affiliations provide for on-site physician and nursing services, and facilitate
the provision of health care services and wellness programs to the Company's
residents.
The Company believes that the senior and assisted living industry is emerging
as a preferred alternative to meet the growing demand for a cost-effective
residential setting in which to care for the elderly who cannot or choose not
to live independently due to physical or cognitive frailties and who may
require assistance with some of the activities of daily living or the
availability of nursing or other medical care. In general, senior and assisted
living consists of a combination of housing and the availability of 24-hour a
day personal support services and assistance with certain activities of daily
living. The Company believes that factors contributing to the growth of the
senior and assisted living industry include: (i) the aging of the U.S.
population; (ii) consumer preference for greater independence in a residential
setting as compared to institutional settings, such as skilled nursing
facilities; (iii) its cost effectiveness compared to skilled nursing care and
home health care; and (iv) the decreasing ability of relatives to provide care
for the elderly in the home. The senior and assisted living industry remains
highly fragmented, with only 5% of the industry's units operated by the 20
largest companies in the industry, which provides substantial opportunities for
industry consolidation.
The Company's business and growth strategy is based on the following key
elements: (i) acquiring and leasing senior and assisted living facilities in
major metropolitan markets; (ii) leveraging its development expertise to
construct its prototype facility in major metropolitan markets; (iii)
utilization, when available, of long-term, tax-exempt bonds to finance the
acquisition and renovation of existing facilities and the development of new
facilities; (iv) providing access to a full continuum of senior and assisted
living services to residents of its facilities; (v) utilizing sophisticated
marketing programs to maintain high occupancy rates; and (vi) utilizing its
operational expertise to enhance the profitability of its existing and future
facilities.
Brookdale Living Communities, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in September
1996 to continue and expand the business and operations of the senior and
assisted living division of PGI. Since 1981, PGI has been engaged in the
ownership, development, acquisition and operation of over 20 million square
feet of income producing properties and, since 1985, has been active in the
development, construction, marketing and operation of senior and assisted
living facilities for the elderly. The Company's principal executive offices
are located at 77 West Wacker Drive, Suite 3900, Chicago, Illinois 60601, and
its telephone number is (312) 456-0239.

RISK FACTORS
Prospective investors should carefully consider the factors set forth below,
as well as the other information contained in this Prospectus, in evaluating
an investment in the Common Stock offered hereby.
RECENT ORGANIZATION; RECENT NET LOSSES
The Company was organized in September 1996 to own, operate, acquire and
develop senior and assisted living facilities. The Original Facilities,
including the Hallmark facility, and the operations relating thereto were
formerly owned and operated by PGI. BLC Property, Inc. ("BLC") was recently
organized by PGI to facilitate the December 1996 sale and leaseback of PGI's
Hallmark facility. Pursuant to such sale and leaseback transaction, Health and
Retirement Properties Trust ("HRPT"), a publicly-traded health care real
estate investment trust, purchased the Hallmark facility from PGI and leased
such facility to BLC pursuant to a net operating lease. Concurrently with such
transaction, HRPT acquired the Springs of East Mesa and the Gables at Brighton
facilities from a third party and net leased such facilities to BLC, and BLC
in turn subleased each of the Hallmark, Springs of East Mesa and Gables at
Brighton facilities (collectively, the "Leased Facilities") to separate,
wholly owned subsidiaries of BLC. Upon completion of the Offering, PGI will
contribute to the Company all of the capital stock of BLC, its interests in
the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities, together with the operations
relating to its senior and assisted living division, and the Company will
acquire from third parties the Edina Park Plaza and the Hawthorn Lakes
facilities (collectively, the "Acquired Facilities"). The Original Facilities
had income before minority interest and extraordinary item of approximately
$2.4 million in 1996, compared to losses before minority interest of
approximately $1.4 million and $3.4 million in 1995 and 1994, respectively. On
a pro forma basis, after giving effect to the Formation and the acquisition of
the Park Place facility, the Company would have had a net loss in 1996 of
approximately $602,000 (after pro forma income taxes). There can be no
assurance that the Company's operations will be profitable in the future. The
inability to achieve profitability at a newly acquired, developed or leased
facility on a timely basis could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations and the
market price of the Common Stock. See "--Uncertainty of Proposed Acquisition,"
"The Company and the Formation," "Selected Financial Data" and "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
LACK OF ARM'S LENGTH NEGOTIATIONS
The terms of the transactions between the Company and PGI that comprise a
portion of the Formation, including, without limitation, PGI's contribution to
the Company of the capital stock of BLC, its interests in the Heritage and the
Devonshire facilities and the operations relating to its senior and assisted
living division, were not determined by arm's length negotiations. No
independent third-party appraisals of the capital stock of BLC, such interests
in the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities or the operations relating to
PGI's senior and assisted living division were obtained on behalf of the
Company. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the terms of these
arrangements, including, but not limited to, the number of shares of Common
Stock and cash received by PGI in exchange for the capital stock of BLC, PGI's
interests in the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities and the operations
relating to PGI's senior and assisted living division are as favorable to the
Company as those the Company would have obtained from unaffiliated third
parties. See "The Company and the Formation" and "Certain Transactions."
UNCERTAINTY OF PROPOSED ACQUISITION
The Company has entered a definitive purchase agreement to acquire the Park
Place facility for approximately $14.4 million. The closing of such
acquisition is subject to certain customary conditions, including conditions
regarding the status of the title to the real property, the results of
environmental investigations and the transfer or issuance of applicable
licenses and permits. If Brookdale is unable to acquire such facility, its pro
forma as adjusted total revenue, operating income and net loss for the year
ended December 31, 1996 would be
6
<PAGE>
approximately $39.3 million, $3.4 million and $732,000, respectively. Although
the Company expects the proposed acquisition of the Park Place facility to be
consummated within 60 days following the completion of the Offering, there can
be no assurance that the conditions to closing such acquisition will be
satisfied in a timely manner, if at all. Any delay or failure to consummate
the purchase of the Park Place facility could have an adverse effect on the
Company's operating results. Upon the completion of this acquisition, the Park
Place facility's units will represent approximately 9% of the total units
operated by the Company. See "The Company and the Formation" and "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--
Liquidity and Capital Resources."
DIFFICULTIES OF INTEGRATION; FUTURE ACQUISITION RISKS
There can be no assurance that the Company will successfully integrate the
operations of the newly acquired or leased facilities with the operations of
the Original Facilities. If the Company is unsuccessful in operating the newly
acquired or leased facilities and integrating them into the Original
Facilities, the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the
Company currently plans to acquire or lease three to five additional
facilities per year that are or can be repositioned as senior and assisted
living facilities. While the Company is actively pursuing acquisition
opportunities, except for the agreements for the purchase of the Acquired
Facilities and the Park Place facility, it has not entered into any agreements
for any material acquisitions. There can be no assurance that the Company's
acquisitions will be completed at the rate currently expected, if at all. The
success of the Company's acquisitions will be determined by numerous factors,
including the Company's ability to identify suitable acquisition
opportunities, competition for such acquisitions, the purchase price, the
financial performance of the facilities after acquisition and the ability of
the Company to integrate effectively the operations of acquired facilities.
Any failure by the Company to achieve its acquisition plans or to integrate or
operate acquired facilities effectively may have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See
"Business--Business and Growth Strategy."
DEVELOPMENT AND CONSTRUCTION RISKS
In addition to acquisitions, the Company currently plans to commence
development of at least two new senior and assisted living facilities per year
containing approximately 200 units each in urban and suburban areas in major
metropolitan markets. The Company's ability to achieve its development plans
will depend upon a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the Company's
control. Further, due to the time required for site selection, governmental
approvals, construction and rental, it is expected that a facility will not
achieve a 90% occupancy rate (a stabilized rate) for at least 32 months, if at
all, after a final determination is made by the Company to proceed with any
particular development. The successful development of additional facilities
will involve a number of risks, including the possibility that the Company may
be unable to locate suitable sites at acceptable prices or may be unable to
obtain, or may experience delays in obtaining, necessary zoning, land use,
building, occupancy, licensing and other required governmental permits and
authorizations. The Company may also incur construction costs that exceed
original estimates, may not complete construction projects on schedule and may
experience competition in the search for suitable development sites. There can
be no assurance that the Company will not suffer delays in its development
program, which could slow the Company's growth. The Company relies and will
continue to rely on third party general contractors to construct its new
facilities. There can be no assurance that the Company will not experience
difficulties in working with general contractors and subcontractors, which
could result in increased construction costs and delays. Further, facility
development is subject to a number of contingencies over which the Company
will have little control and that may adversely affect project cost and
completion time, including shortages of, or the inability to obtain, labor or
materials, the inability of the general contractor or subcontractors to
perform under their contracts, strikes, adverse weather conditions and changes
in applicable laws or regulations or in the method of applying such laws and
regulations. Accordingly, if the Company is unable to achieve its development
plans, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be
materially and adversely affected. See "Business--Business and Growth
Strategy."

NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING
To achieve its acquisition and development plans and growth objectives, the
Company will need to obtain significant additional financial resources. The
Company estimates the cost to acquire and develop the new facilities targeted
for acquisition or development over the next two years is approximately $200.0
million in the aggregate, which substantially exceeds the net proceeds of the
Offering. Accordingly, the Company's future growth will depend on its ability
to obtain significant additional financing on acceptable terms. The Company
has no existing commitments for financing. The Company will from time to time
seek debt financing through a variety of sources, which may include tax-exempt
bonds, conventional mortgage financing and bank financing, leases with third
parties or other similar financing methods. If such debt financing is
unavailable or is not available on terms favorable to the Company, the Company
may obtain financing through additional equity offerings, the completion of
which may result in a dilution to the Company's stockholders. There can be no
assurance that future financing, whether debt or equity, will be available as
needed or on terms acceptable to the Company. A lack of funds may require the
Company to delay or eliminate all or some of its development projects and
acquisition plans and could therefore have a material adverse effect on the
Company's growth plans and on its business, financial condition and results of
operations. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital
Resources."
ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES OF INDEBTEDNESS AND LEASE OBLIGATIONS; FLOATING RATE DEBT
The Company was subject to mortgage and other indebtedness in an aggregate
principal amount of approximately $93.4 million at December 31, 1996 on a pro
forma basis. The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary BLC, is
presently a party to a long-term master lease covering the Leased Facilities.
This master lease requires minimum annual lease payments aggregating
approximately $8.3 million in 1997 and $8.8 million in 1998 and provides for
increases in minimum annual lease payments in 1999 and 2000 and additional
rent payments based on a percentage of any increases in the revenues generated
by the Leased Facilities beginning in 1999. The Company intends to finance its
senior and assisted living facilities through tax-exempt bond financing,
conventional mortgage financing and bank financing, leases with third parties
or other similar financing methods. The amount of indebtedness and lease
payments is expected to increase substantially as the Company pursues its
growth strategy. As a result, an increasing amount of the Company's cash flow
will be devoted to debt service and related lease payments, and the Company
will continue to be subject to risks normally associated with significant
financing leverage. At December 31, 1996, approximately $65.0 million ($93.4
million pro forma after giving effect to the Formation) in principal amount of
the Company's indebtedness bore interest at floating rates. In addition,
indebtedness the Company may incur in the future, including long-term, tax-
exempt bond financing, if available, may bear interest at floating rates and
in such event increases in prevailing interest rates could increase
significantly the Company's interest payment obligations. There can be no
assurance that the Company will generate sufficient cash flow from operations
to cover required interest, principal and lease payments. Any payment or other
default could cause the lender to foreclose upon the facilities securing such
indebtedness or, in the case of a lease, could result in the termination of
the lease, with a consequent loss of income and asset value to the Company. In
addition, it is anticipated that the terms of the Company's credit facilities
or letters of credit will restrict the payment of dividends by the Company or
distributions by its wholly owned partnerships or subsidiaries to the Company
if certain financial ratios are not met. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and
Capital Resources" and Notes to Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statements of
Operations of the Company.
The Heritage, Devonshire, Hawthorn Lakes and Edina Park Plaza facilities
have been financed with tax-exempt bonds. In order to maintain the tax-exempt
treatment of the interest paid on these bonds, the facilities must comply with
certain federal income tax requirements, principally pertaining to the maximum
income level of a specified portion ("Qualified Residents") of the facilities'
residents. Failure to satisfy these requirements would constitute an event of
default under such bonds, thereby accelerating their maturity. In certain
cases, the Company's ability to increase prices to Qualified Residents at the
facilities with such bond financing (in response to higher operating costs or
other factors) could be limited if it affects the ability of the Company to
attract and retain such Qualified Residents.

DIFFICULTIES OF MANAGING RAPID GROWTH
The Company expects that the number of facilities it owns and operates will
increase substantially as the Company pursues its development and acquisition
strategy. This planned growth will place significant demands on the Company's
management resources. In order to manage its growth effectively, the Company
must continue to expand its operational, financial and management information
systems and continue to attract, train, motivate, manage and retain key
employees. If the Company is unable to manage its growth effectively, its
business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially
and adversely affected. See "Business--Business and Growth Strategy" and
"Management."
DEPENDENCE ON SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND SKILLED PERSONNEL
The Company depends significantly on the continued services of Mark J.
Schulte, its President and Chief Executive Officer. The loss of his services
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. The Company also depends on its ability
to continue to attract and retain management personnel who will be responsible
for the day-to-day operations of its senior and assisted living facilities. If
the Company is unable to hire qualified management personnel to operate its
facilities, the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations could be materially and adversely affected. See "Management."
BENEFITS TO AFFILIATES
PGI will realize substantial benefits from the Offering. In particular, upon
completion of the Offering, PGI will acquire 2,071,334 shares of Common Stock
with a market value of approximately $31.1 million (assuming no exercise of
the Underwriters' over-allotment option and an initial public offering price
of $15.00 per share, the midpoint of the filing range) in connection with its
contribution to the Company of all of the capital stock of BLC, its interests
in the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities and the operations relating to
its senior and assisted living division. Also, the Company will pay PGI
approximately $7.2 million to reimburse PGI for earnest monies previously paid
by PGI in connection with the acquisition of the Acquired Facilities, the Park
Place facility, a third party's interests in the Heritage and the Devonshire
facilities and the proposed acquisitions of the development sites located in
Glen Ellyn, Illinois, Southfield, Michigan and Austin, Texas and for certain
costs and expenses previously paid by PGI relating to the issuance and
distribution of Common Stock pursuant to the Offering. Further, PGI will
covenant that the partnerships owning the Heritage and the Devonshire
facilities will have no less than $800,000 in the aggregate in unrestricted
cash upon the completion of the Offering; however, any unrestricted cash in
excess of $800,000 then held by such partnerships will be distributed to PGI.
In addition, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the master lease
between HRPT and BLC governing the Leased Facilities, upon the closing of the
Offering and PGI's contribution of all of BLC's capital stock to the Company,
certain affiliates of PGI, including The Prime Group, Inc., will be released
by HRPT from such affiliates' guaranties of BLC's obligations under the master
lease. At the Formation, in accordance with a formation agreement, by and
among the Company, Mark J. Schulte and PGI (the "Formation Agreement"), Mr.
Schulte will transfer to the Company all of his interests in PGI's senior and
assisted living division in exchange for 328,666 shares of Common Stock from
the Company. See "--Lack of Arm's Length Negotiations," "The Company and the
Formation" and "Use of Proceeds."
SIGNIFICANT INFLUENCE BY EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS AND MANAGEMENT
PGI will beneficially own approximately 27.6% of the outstanding Common
Stock after completion of the Offering (25.1% if the Underwriters' over-
allotment option is exercised in full). Executive officers and directors of
the Company as a group will beneficially own approximately 33.3% of the
outstanding Common Stock after the Offering (30.3% if the Underwriters' over-
allotment option is exercised in full). As a result, PGI and the Company's
executive officers and directors will have significant influence over all
matters requiring approval by the Company's stockholders, including business
combinations and the election of directors. See "Principal Stockholders."

<PAGE>
COMPETITION
The long-term care industry is highly competitive, and the Company believes
that the senior and assisted living segment, in particular, will become even
more competitive in the future. The Company will be competing with numerous
other companies providing similar services such as home health care agencies,
other senior and assisted living providers, retirement communities and
convalescent centers. In general, regulatory and other barriers to entry in
the senior and assisted living industry are not substantial. In pursuing its
business and growth strategy, the Company expects to face competition in its
efforts to develop, acquire and lease facilities. Some of the Company's
present and potential competitors are significantly larger and have, or may
obtain, greater financial resources than the resources available to the
Company. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the Company will not
encounter increased competition that could limit its ability to attract
residents or expand its business or otherwise have a material adverse effect
on its business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, if
the development of new senior and assisted living facilities outpaces demand
for those facilities in certain markets, such markets may become saturated.
Such an oversupply of facilities could cause the Company to experience
decreased occupancy rates, depressed margins and lower operating results. See
"Business--Competition."
GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION
The Company's senior and assisted living facilities are subject to federal,
state and local regulation and licensing by state and local health and social
service agencies and other regulatory authorities, which requirements vary
from state to state. Senior and assisted living facilities in some states are
subject to periodic survey or inspection by governmental authorities. In
Illinois, where the Original Facilities are located, and perhaps in certain
other states in which the Company may operate in the future, the Company may
be unable to provide certain higher levels of assisted living services without
obtaining the appropriate licenses, if applicable. In addition, some states
have adopted certificate of need or similar laws applicable to assisted living
and nursing facilities which generally require that the appropriate state
agency approve certain acquisitions or capital expenditures and determine that
a need exists for certain new bed additions or new services. Many states have
placed a moratorium on granting certificates of need or otherwise stated their
intent not to grant approval for such expenditures. To the extent certificates
of need or other similar approvals are required for expansion of Company
operations, such expansion could be adversely affected by the failure or
inability to obtain the necessary approvals or possible delays in obtaining
such approvals.
Although the Company currently does not participate in the Medicare or
Medicaid programs, the hospitals with which it has affiliations do participate
in those programs, and the Company intends to participate in the Medicare
program at the skilled nursing facility to be constructed at the Devonshire
facility. Also, all of the Company's residents are eligible for Medicare
benefits. Therefore, certain aspects of the Company's business are and will be
subject to federal and state laws and regulations which govern financial and
other arrangements between and among health care providers, suppliers and
vendors. These laws prohibit certain direct and indirect payments and fee-
splitting arrangements designed to induce or encourage the referral of
patients to, or the recommendation of, a particular provider or other entity
or person for medical products and services. These laws include, but are not
limited to, the federal "anti-kickback law" which prohibits, among other
things, the offer, payment, solicitation or receipt of any form of
remuneration in return for the referral of Medicare and Medicaid patients. The
Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human
Services, the Department of Justice and other federal agencies interpret these
statutes liberally and enforce them aggressively. Members of Congress have
proposed legislation that would significantly expand the federal government's
involvement in curtailing fraud and abuse and increase the monetary penalties
for violation of these provisions. Violation of these laws can result in,
among other things, loss of licensure, civil and criminal penalties for
individuals and entities and exclusion of health care providers or suppliers
from participation in the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs.
In addition, although the Company is not a Medicare or Medicaid provider or
supplier, it is subject to these laws because (i) the state laws typically
apply regardless of whether Medicare or Medicaid payments are at issue, (ii)
the Company plans to build and operate a skilled nursing facility at its
Devonshire facility and may establish
10
<PAGE>
licensed home health agencies which are intended to participate in Medicare
and (iii) as required under some state licensure laws, and for the convenience
of its residents, some of the Company's senior and assisted living facilities
maintain contracts with hospitals, who in turn maintain contracts with certain
health care providers and practitioners, including pharmacies, home health
agencies and hospices, through which the health care providers make their
health care items or services (some of which may be covered by Medicare or
Medicaid) available to facility residents. There can be no assurance that such
laws will be interpreted in a manner consistent with the practices of the
Company.
The success of the Company will depend in part upon its ability to satisfy
applicable regulations and requirements and to procure and maintain required
licenses as the regulatory environment for senior and assisted living
facilities evolves. There can be no assurance that federal, state or local
laws or regulatory procedures which might adversely affect the Company will
not be imposed or expanded. Any failure by the Company to comply with
applicable regulatory requirements could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See
"Business--Governmental Regulation."
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 cost of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or
toxic substances that could be located on, in or under such property. Such
laws and regulations often impose liability whether or not the owner or
operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or
toxic substances. In addition, the Company's skilled nursing facility to be
built at the Devonshire facility will be subject to laws relating to the
disposal of biohazardous waste. The costs of any required remediation or
removal of these substances could be substantial, and the liability of an
owner or operator as to any affected property is generally not limited under
such laws and regulations and could exceed the property's value and the
aggregate assets of the owner or operator. In connection with the ownership or
operation of its facilities, the Company could be liable for these remediation
costs or fines. As a result, the presence, with or without the Company's
knowledge, of hazardous or toxic substances at any property held or operated
by the Company, or acquired or operated by the Company in the future, could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition
and results of operations.
LIABILITY AND INSURANCE
The services provided by the Company subject it to significant liability
risks. In recent years, the senior and assisted living industry has
experienced an increase in the number of lawsuits alleging negligence and
other legal theories, many of which involve significant legal costs and
substantial claims. The Company intends to secure, by completion of the
Offering, insurance policies in amounts and with such coverage as it deems
appropriate for its operations. There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company will be able to continue to obtain sufficient liability insurance
coverage in the future or that such coverage will be available on acceptable
terms. A successful claim in excess of the Company's coverage or not covered
by the Company's insurance could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Claims
against the Company, regardless of their merit or outcome, may involve
significant legal costs and require management to devote considerable time
which would otherwise be utilized in the operation of the Company. See
"Business--Insurance."
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Upon completion of the Offering, the Company will have 7,500,000 shares of
Common Stock outstanding (8,250,000 shares if the Underwriters' over-allotment
option is exercised in full). Of these shares, the 5,000,000 shares sold in
the Offering (or a maximum of 5,750,000 if the Underwriters' over-allotment
option is exercised in full) will be freely tradable without restriction or
limitation under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), except for any shares purchased by "affiliates" of the Company, as such
term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. The
remaining 2,500,000 shares are "restricted securities" within the meaning of
Rule 144 and are held by PGI and management of the Company. The Company, its
directors and executive officers, certain of its key employees and PGI have
agreed with the Underwriters, subject
11
<PAGE>
to certain exceptions, not to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of
Common Stock, any options to purchase Common Stock or any securities
convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock for a period of
one year after the date of this Prospectus (the "lock-up period") without the
prior written consent of Friedman, Billings, Ramsey & Co., Inc. ("FBR"). After
expiration of the lock-up period, PGI will be entitled to certain demand and
incidental registration rights with respect to its shares. If PGI, by
exercising its demand registration rights, causes a large number of shares to
be registered and sold in the public market, such sales could have an adverse
effect on the market price for the Common Stock. Further, promptly following
completion of the Offering, the Company intends to register 830,000 shares of
Common Stock which will be reserved for issuance pursuant to the Company's
stock option programs. Upon completion of the Offering, options to purchase
such 695,000 shares will be granted at the initial public offering price to
executive officers, certain key employees and non-employee directors of the
Company. Such options will vest and become exercisable with regard to 675,000
shares, subject to certain conditions being met, at the rate of 25% per year
commencing on the first anniversary of their date of grant and, with regard to
20,000 shares, at the rate of 33.3% per year commencing on the first
anniversary of their date of grant. All restricted shares of Common Stock will
be eligible for sale to certain qualified institutional buyers in accordance
with Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Sales of substantial amounts of
shares of Common Stock in the public market after the Offering or the
perception that such sales could occur could adversely affect the market price
of the Common Stock and the Company's ability to raise equity. See
"Management--Stock Incentive Plan," "Description of Capital Stock--
Registration Rights Agreement," "Shares Eligible for Future Sale" and
"Underwriting."
ABSENCE OF PUBLIC MARKET; POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE
Prior to the Offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock,
and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or be
sustained after the Offering. The initial public offering price of the Common
Stock will be determined by negotiations between the Company and the
representative of the Underwriters and may bear no relationship to the price
at which the Common Stock will trade after completion of the Offering. For
factors that will be considered in determining the initial public offering
price, see "Underwriting." After completion of the Offering, the market price
of the Common Stock could be subject to significant fluctuations in response
to various factors and events, including the liquidity of the market for the
shares of Common Stock, variations in the Company's operating results, changes
in earnings estimates by securities analysts, publicity regarding the industry
or the Company and the adoption of new statutes or regulations (or changes in
the interpretation of existing statutes or regulations) affecting the health
care industry in general or the senior and assisted living industry in
particular. In addition, the stock market in recent years has experienced
broad price and volume fluctuations that often have been unrelated to the
operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may
adversely affect the market price of the shares of Common Stock.
ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS
The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated
By-laws, as well as Delaware corporate law, contain certain provisions that
could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to
acquire, or discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control of
the Company. These provisions could limit the price that certain investors
might be willing to pay in the future for shares of Common Stock. Certain of
these provisions allow the Company to issue, without stockholder approval,
preferred stock having rights senior to those of the Common Stock. Other
provisions impose various procedural and other requirements, including advance
notice and super-majority voting provisions, that could make it more difficult
for stockholders to effect certain corporate actions. In addition, the
Company's Board of Directors is divided into three classes, each of which
serves for a staggered three-year term, which may make it more difficult for a
third party to gain control of the Board of Directors. As a Delaware
corporation, the Company is subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, as amended (the "DGCL"), which, in general, prevents an
"interested stockholder" (defined generally as a person owning 15% or more of
a corporation's outstanding voting stock) from engaging in a "business
combination" (as defined therein) for three years following the date such
person became an interested stockholder unless certain conditions are
satisfied. Pursuant to a Board
12
<PAGE>
resolution adopted at the time of formation of the Company, the Section 203
limits do not apply to any "business combination" between the Company and PGI.
See "Description of Capital Stock."
IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION
The existing stockholders of the Company acquired their shares of Common
Stock at an average cost substantially below the assumed initial public
offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus. Therefore,
purchasers of Common Stock in the Offering will experience immediate and
substantial dilution in net tangible book value per share of approximately
$7.61. See "Dilution."
THE COMPANY AND THE FORMATION
The Company was incorporated in Delaware on September 4, 1996 and is wholly
owned by an affiliate of The Prime Group, Inc. At the completion of the
Offering, the shares owned by such affiliate will be repurchased by the
Company in accordance with a subscription agreement between the Company and
such affiliate at a nominal price. BLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of PGI, was
incorporated in Delaware on December 12, 1996 to facilitate the December 1996
sale and leaseback of PGI's Hallmark facility. Pursuant to such sale and
leaseback transaction, HRPT purchased the Hallmark facility from PGI and
leased such facility to BLC pursuant to a net operating lease. Concurrently
with such transaction, HRPT acquired the Springs of East Mesa and the Gables
at Brighton facilities from a third party and net leased such facilities to
BLC, and BLC in turn subleased each of the Leased Facilities to separate,
wholly owned subsidiaries of BLC.
Pursuant to the Formation Agreement, in connection with the completion of
the Offering, PGI will contribute to the Company all of the capital stock of
BLC, its interests in the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities and the
operations relating to its senior and assisted living division (including all
of the capital stock of a wholly owned subsidiary of PGI that holds certain
rights relating to the proposed skilled nursing facility on the campus of the
Devonshire facility) in exchange for 2,071,334 shares of Common Stock and the
assumption by the Company of certain indebtedness in the aggregate amount of
$65.0 million. Further, PGI will covenant that the partnerships owning the
Heritage and the Devonshire facilities will have no less than $800,000 in the
aggregate in unrestricted cash upon the completion of the Offering; however,
any unrestricted cash in excess of $800,000 then held by such partnerships
will be distributed to PGI. In addition, in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the master lease between HRPT and BLC governing the Leased
Facilities, upon the closing of the Offering and PGI's contribution of all of
BLC's capital stock to the Company, certain affiliates of PGI, including The
Prime Group, Inc., will be released by HRPT from such affiliates' guaranties
of BLC's obligations under the master lease. In addition, the Company will pay
PGI approximately $7.2 million to reimburse PGI for earnest monies previously
paid by PGI in connection with the acquisition of the Acquired Facilities, the
Park Place facility, a third party's interests in the Heritage and the
Devonshire facilities and the proposed acquisitions of the development sites
located in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, Southfield, Michigan and Austin, Texas and
for certain costs and expenses previously paid by PGI relating to the issuance
and distribution of Common Stock pursuant to the Offering. At the Formation,
in accordance with the Formation Agreement, Mark J. Schulte, President and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company, will transfer all of his interests in
PGI's senior and assisted living division to the Company in exchange for
328,666 shares of Common Stock. The Company, at the completion of the
Offering, will also enter (i) a management agreement with PGI to manage the
Island on Lake Travis facility and (ii) a management agreement (and an option
to purchase) regarding the Kenwood facility with a third party unaffiliated
with PGI that owns the Kenwood facility. See "Risk Factors--Benefits to
Affiliates," "Use of Proceeds," "Business--Facilities" and "Certain
Transactions."
The Company currently has credit enhancement securing the $65.0 million of
tax-exempt bonds relating to the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities which
it must replace on or before the date of the acquisition of these facilities.
Bank One, Illinois, NA has issued a commitment, and the Company expects to
obtain an extension of an expired commitment previously obtained from LaSalle
National Bank, in each case pursuant to which letters of credit with a
maturity of three years from the date of issuance of such letters of credit
would be provided as
13
<PAGE>
replacement credit enhancement for such tax-exempt bonds. On or prior to the
completion of the Offering, the Company will have executed definitive
agreements with such banks to issue the letters of credit. In addition to the
mortgages on the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities, it is anticipated
that estimated cash collateral of approximately $11.0 million from the net
proceeds of the Offering will be pledged as additional collateral and the
letters of credit will be guaranteed to the extent of 30% by the Company. The
Company intends to purchase two-year interest rate protection agreements with
respect to such tax-exempt indebtedness upon the completion of the Offering,
which, if so purchased, will have the effect of mitigating the effect of
inflation and higher interest rates on such indebtedness during the terms of
such contracts. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
purchase such interest rate protection contracts on terms favorable to the
Company, if at all.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 5,000,000 shares of
Common Stock offered hereby are estimated to be approximately $66.3 million
(at an assumed initial public offering price of $15.00 per share, the midpoint
of the filing range) or approximately $76.7 million if the Underwriters' over-
allotment option is exercised in full, after deducting the estimated
underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses (including
approximately $1.3 million to be paid to PGI to reimburse PGI for such
expenses previously paid by PGI) payable by the Company. Simultaneously with
the completion of the Offering, the Company intends to use approximately $35.8
million of the net proceeds to fund the cash portion of the purchase price for
the Acquired Facilities and the Park Place facility (including the payment to
PGI of approximately $300,000 to reimburse PGI for earnest monies previously
paid by PGI in connection with the acquisition of the Acquired Facilities and
the Park Place facility), and approximately $5.6 million of the net proceeds
to reimburse PGI for earnest monies previously paid by PGI in connection with
the acquisition of a third party's interests in the Heritage and the
Devonshire facilities and the proposed acquisitions of the development sites
located in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, Southfield, Michigan and Austin, Texas. In
addition, the Company intends to use approximately $1.6 million of the net
proceeds to fund a statutory escrow deposit with respect to the Hallmark
facility pursuant to Illinois law and in accordance with BLC's lease agreement
with HRPT. The Company also intends to use approximately $11.0 million of the
net proceeds as cash collateral for the proposed credit enhancement on $65.0
million of tax-exempt bonds that are secured by the Heritage and the
Devonshire facilities and approximately $400,000 in payment of a commitment
fee to the financial institutions providing such credit enhancement. In
addition, the Company intends to use approximately $300,000 to purchase
interest rate protection contracts on the $65.0 million of tax-exempt bonds
relating to the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities. The foregoing uses of
proceeds represent the direct and indirect payment to PGI and its affiliates
of an aggregate of approximately $7.2 million, or approximately 10.9%, of the
net proceeds of the Offering (9.4% if the Underwriters' over-allotment is
exercised in full). The balance of the net proceeds, approximately $11.6
million (or approximately $22.0 million if the Underwriters' over-allotment
option is exercised in full), will be used to finance a portion of the future
acquisitions and developments of senior and assisted living facilities and for
working capital and general corporate purposes. Pending such uses described
above, the Company intends to invest the net proceeds in short-term, interest-
bearing securities or certificates of deposit. See "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and
Capital Resources," "Business--Business and Growth Strategy" and "Certain
Transactions."
DIVIDEND POLICY
The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its Common
Stock and currently plans to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the
growth of the Company's business rather than to pay cash dividends. Payments
of any cash dividends in the future will depend on the financial condition,
results of operations and capital requirements of the Company as well as other
factors deemed to be relevant by the Board of Directors. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--
Liquidity and Capital Resources."

CAPITALIZATION
The following table sets forth as of December 31, 1996 (i) the
capitalization of the Original Facilities and (ii) the pro forma
capitalization of the Company, as adjusted to give effect to the Formation and

DILUTION
The Company's net deficit in tangible book value as of December 31, 1996
prior to the Offering was approximately $14.6 million, or $5.85 per share. Net
deficit in tangible book value per share as of December 31, 1996 is equal to
the Original Facilities' total tangible assets less their total tangible
liabilities, divided by the 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock to be received by
PGI and management of the Company related to the Formation. After giving
effect to the sale of the 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock offered by the
Company hereby at an assumed initial public offering price of $15.00 per
share, the midpoint of the filing range, the pro forma net tangible book value
of the Common Stock at December 31, 1996 would have been approximately $55.4
million, or $7.39 per share. This represents an immediate increase in pro
forma net tangible book value of $13.24 per share to existing stockholders and
immediate dilution of $7.61 per share to purchasers of Common Stock in the
Offering. The following table illustrates this dilution on a per share basis:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the "Selected
Financial Data" and the Combined Financial Statements of the Original
Facilities and Notes thereto, each appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus.
Such historical information includes the operations, assets and liabilities of
the business and facilities relating to the Original Facilities (a portion of
which, consisting of the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities and the
operations relating to the Original Facilities, will be contributed to the
Company as part of the Formation, the balance of which, consisting of the
Hallmark facility, was acquired by HRPT and in turn leased to the Company),
and forms the basis for "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations." Except for "Overview," the discussion of
historical results set forth below does not include financial information
relating to the Acquired Facilities (consisting of the Hawthorn Lakes and the
Edina Park Plaza facilities), the Park Place facility, two of the Leased
Facilities (consisting of the Springs of East Mesa and the Gables at Brighton
facilities) or the managed facilities. See "Risk Factors--Uncertainty of
Proposed Acquisition" and "The Company and the Formation." Historical results
as set forth herein are not necessarily indicative of future results from
operations.
OVERVIEW
The Company operates nine senior and assisted living facilities containing a
total of 1,968 units. Four of such facilities are owned by the Company, three
facilities are leased by the Company from HRPT and two facilities are managed
by Brookdale pursuant to management contracts. The Company's senior and
assisted living facilities offer residents a supportive, "home-like" setting
and assistance with certain activities of daily living. By providing residents
a range of service options as their needs change, the Company seeks to achieve
greater continuity of care, enabling seniors to age in place and thereby
maintain their residency for a longer time period. The ability to allow
residents to age in place is beneficial to Brookdale's residents as well as
their families who are burdened with care option decisions for their elderly
relatives.
Upon the completion of the Offering, PGI will contribute to the Company all
of the capital stock of BLC, its interests in the Heritage and the Devonshire
facilities and the operations relating to its senior and assisted living
division (including all of the capital stock of a wholly owned subsidiary of
PGI that holds certain rights relating to the proposed skilled nursing
facility on the campus of the Devonshire facility) in exchange for 2,071,334
shares of Common Stock and the assumption by the Company of certain
indebtedness in the aggregate amount of $65.0 million. Further, PGI will
covenant that the partnerships owning the Heritage and the Devonshire
facilities will have no less than $800,000 in the aggregate in unrestricted
cash upon the completion of the Offering; however, any unrestricted cash in
excess of $800,000 then held by such partnerships will be distributed to PGI.
In addition, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the master lease
between HRPT and BLC governing the Leased Facilities, upon the closing of the
Offering and PGI's contribution of all of BLC's capital stock to the Company,
certain affiliates of PGI, including The Prime Group, Inc., will be released
by HRPT from such affiliates' guaranties of BLC's obligations under the master
lease. In addition, the Company will pay PGI approximately $7.2 million to
reimburse PGI for earnest monies previously paid by PGI in connection with the
acquisition of the Acquired Facilities, the Park Place facility, a third
party's interests in the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities and the
proposed acquisitions of the development sites located in Glen Ellyn,
Illinois, Southfield, Michigan and Austin, Texas and for certain costs and
expenses previously paid by PGI relating to the issuance and distribution of
Common Stock pursuant to the Offering. At the Formation, in accordance with
the Formation Agreement, Mark J. Schulte, President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, will transfer all of his interests in PGI's senior and
assisted living division to the Company in exchange for 328,666 shares of
Common Stock. Further, at the completion of the Offering, the Company will
enter (i) a management contract with PGI to manage the Island on Lake Travis
facility and (ii) a management agreement (and an option to purchase) regarding
the Kenwood facility with a third party unaffiliated with PGI that owns the
Kenwood facility. See "Risk Factors--Benefits to Affiliates," "The Company and
the Formation," "Use of Proceeds," "Business--Facilities" and "Certain
Transactions."
The Company currently plans to acquire or lease approximately three to five
facilities per year containing an aggregate of approximately 600 to 1,000
units, and to commence development of at least two new facilities per year
containing approximately 200 units each in major urban and suburban areas of
major metropolitan
19
<PAGE>
markets. The Company anticipates that it will use a combination of net
proceeds from the Offering, additional equity financing and debt financing,
lease transactions and cash generated from operations to fund this development
activity. In order to achieve its growth plans, the Company will be required
to obtain a substantial amount of additional financing. To the extent
available, the Company intends to use long-term, tax-exempt bonds to finance
the acquisition and renovation of existing facilities and the development of
new facilities. The Company has no existing commitments for financing. There
can be no assurance that future financing or lease transactions will be
available as needed or on terms acceptable to the Company. A lack of funds may
require the Company to delay all or some of its acquisition plans and
development projects. See "Risk Factors--Difficulties of Integration; Future
Acquisition Risks," "--Development and Construction Risks," "--Need for
Additional Financing" and "--Liquidity and Capital Resources."
The Company derives its revenues from resident fees and management fees. On
a pro forma basis after giving effect to the Formation, most of the Company's
operating revenue has come from resident fees, which comprised 99.2% of total
operating revenues for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996. Resident
fees typically are paid monthly by residents, their families or other
responsible parties. The Company estimates that approximately 99.9% of the
Company's pro forma revenue has been derived from private pay sources.
Management services income, which on a pro forma basis after giving effect to
the Formation, accounted for 0.7% of the Company's revenues for the years
ended December 31, 1995 and 1996, consists of management fees which typically
range from 3.0% to 5.0% of a managed facility's total gross revenues. Resident
fees and management fees are recognized as revenues when services are
provided. After the Offering, the Company will not receive management fees
with regard to its owned and leased facilities; however, it will receive fees
under the management contracts for the Island on Lake Travis and the Kenwood
facilities.
The Company classifies its operating expenses into the following categories:
(i) facility operating expenses, which include lease payments, labor, food,
marketing and other direct facility expenses and real estate taxes; (ii)
general and administrative expenses, which primarily include corporate
headquarters and other overhead costs; and (iii) depreciation and
amortization. On a pro forma basis after giving effect to the Formation,
annual lease expenses will be recorded net of $806,000 per year related to the
amortization of a deferred gain on the sale and leaseback of the Hallmark
facility.

COMPARISON OF YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995
Revenue. Resident fees revenue increased approximately $1.5 million, or
6.8%, to $23.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 primarily due to a
6.4% increase in average monthly revenue per unit and a 1.1% increase in
occupancy percentage from the year ended December 31, 1995 to the year ended
December 31, 1996. The occupancy rate for the Original Facilities during the
year ended December 31, 1996 was 99.2% as compared to 98.1% during the year
ended December 31, 1995. The average monthly revenue per unit increased by
$129 per unit to $2,144 per unit for the year ended December 31, 1996 as
compared to $2,015 per occupied unit for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Operating Expenses. Facility operating expenses decreased approximately
$447,000, or 3.4%, to $12.8 million for the year ended December 31, 1996
primarily due to more efficient operations at the Original Facilities and
economies of scale created by the increase in occupancy and revenue. This was
evidenced by the decrease in these expenses as a percentage of revenue to
54.6% for the year ended December 31, 1996 compared to 60.4% for the year
ended December 31, 1995. In addition, property management fees (such
management fees, which were paid to PGI, will not be payable after the
Formation) decreased approximately $513,000, or 35.6%, due primarily to a
reduction of the Hallmark facility's management fees, effective January 1,
1996, from 5.0% of net operating income to 3.0%.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased approximately $775,000, or
20.8%, to $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 primarily due to
amortization of deferred marketing fees of approximately $591,000 in 1995
related to the Devonshire and the Heritage facilities that became fully
amortized in 1995 and certain furniture and equipment of the Devonshire
facility that was fully depreciated in 1995, representing a depreciation
expense of approximately $215,000 in 1995, and was partially offset by an
increase in depreciable assets at each of the Original Facilities.
Interest and financing fees expense decreased approximately $1.1 million, or
16.7%, to $5.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 primarily due to
the refinancing of the Hallmark facility's mortgage payable at the end of
1995. This refinancing resulted in savings of approximately $594,000 as the
new note bears a fixed rate of interest of 7.265% per annum whereas the old
note accrued interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 2.5% per annum. For the year
ended December 31, 1995, the interest rate on the old note ranged from 8.75%
to 9.0%. In addition, the Devonshire and the Heritage facilities experienced
lower interest rates on their variable rate bonds during the year ended
December 31, 1996 than during the year ended December 31, 1995, which resulted
in additional savings of approximately $292,000. Interest rates on these bonds
(exclusive of credit enhancement and other fees) averaged approximately 3.4%
for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to an average rate of
approximately 3.9% for the year ended December 31, 1995. These decreases in
interest expense were slightly offset by increased financing fees associated
with the Devonshire and the Heritage facilities' bonds for the year ended
December 31, 1996.
Income (Loss) Before Minority Interest and Net Income (Loss). Income before
minority interest increased approximately $3.8 million and net income
decreased by approximately $1.1 million to approximately $2.4 million and $1.6
million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1996 compared to a loss
before minority interest and net income of $1.4 million and $2.7 million,
respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1995
21
<PAGE>
primarily due to an increase in operating revenue and a decrease in operating
expenses, offset as described above by the extraordinary gain on
extinguishment of debt of $3.3 million on the Hallmark facility in the year
ended December 31, 1995.
COMPARISON OF YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
Revenue. Resident fees revenue increased approximately $6.7 million, or
44.3%, to $21.9 million for the year ended December 31, 1995. Of this
increase, $4.9 million related to a full year of operations at the Hallmark
facility during the year ended December 31, 1995 versus only seven months
during the year ended December 31, 1994, while the remainder of this increase
was primarily due to increases in average monthly revenue per unit and
occupancy rates at the Original Facilities for the year ended December 31,
1994 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995. Occupancy rates for the
Original Facilities during the year ended December 31, 1995 increased 2.5% to
98.1% from 95.6% during the year ended December 31, 1994. The average monthly
revenue per unit increased by $283 per unit, to $2,015 per occupied unit, for
the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to $1,732 per unit for the year
ended December 31, 1994.
Operating Expenses. Facility operating expenses increased approximately $2.0
million, or 17.6%, to $13.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1995
primarily due to an increase of $1.9 million in facility operating expenses at
the Hallmark facility due to a full year of operations versus only seven
months during the year ended December 31, 1994. Real estate taxes increased
approximately $120,000, or 13.4%, to $1.0 million for the year ended December
31, 1995 again due to a full year of taxes being expensed for the Hallmark
facility. Real estate taxes at both the Devonshire and the Heritage facilities
were consistent from year to year. Property management fees (such management
fees, which were paid to PGI, will not be payable after the Formation)
increased approximately $327,000, or 44.0%, to $1.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 1995 primarily due to a full year of fees assessed at the
Hallmark facility and increased revenues at the Devonshire and the Heritage
facilities. However, the Original Facilities were run more efficiently and
economies of scale created by the increase in occupancy and revenue are
evidenced by the reduction of these expenses as a percentage of revenue
decreasing to 60.4% for the year ended December 31, 1995 from 74.1% for the
year ended December 31, 1994.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $435,000, or
13.2%, to $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1995. Of this increase,
approximately $511,000 related to a full year of depreciation at the Hallmark
facility and $121,000 related to an increase of depreciable assets at the
Original Facilities. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of
$197,000 in the amortization of deferred marketing costs at the Heritage
facility that became fully amortized in mid-1995.
Interest and financing fees expense increased 57.5%, or $2.3 million, to
$6.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1995. Of this increase,
approximately $1.7 million was due to 12 months of interest expense at the
Hallmark facility during the year ended December 31, 1995 versus only seven
months during the year ended December 31, 1994. In addition, approximately
$612,000 of additional interest expense related to the variable-rate bonds
that encumber both the Devonshire and the Heritage facilities was recognized
in the year ended December 31, 1995 due to increased interest rates. Interest
rates on the bonds (exclusive of credit enhancement and other fees) averaged
3.9% during the year ended December 31, 1995 versus 2.9% during the year ended
December 31, 1994. The Devonshire and the Heritage facilities also realized an
increase in financing fees during the year ended December 31, 1995 as a
standard fee of 1.35% of the outstanding bond balance was imposed, which
created a $135,000 increase in financing fees from the prior year. The above
mentioned increases were partially offset by a $117,000 reduction to interest
expense related to a note payable to an affiliate that was paid off during the
year ended December 31, 1994.
In December 1995, the owner of the Hallmark facility repaid its original
mortgage note from the proceeds of a new note at a discount of approximately
$3.3 million, which was recognized as an extraordinary gain on the
extinguishment of debt.
Income (Loss) Before Minority Interest and Net Income (Loss). Loss before
minority interest decreased approximately $2.0 million to approximately $1.4
million and net income increased approximately $4.9 million to $2.7 million
for the year ended December 31, 1995 compared to a loss before minority
interest and net loss of $3.4 million and $2.2 million, respectively, for the
year ended December 31, 1994 primarily due to an extraordinary gain on the
extinguishment of the mortgage on the Hallmark facility and increased revenues
at the Original Facilities, both described above. Partially offsetting the
extraordinary gain and increase in operating revenue was an increase in
operating expenses, as described above.

Net cash provided by operations totaled approximately $5.3 million, $620,000
and $2.2 million for each of the three years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994, respectively. The variance in cash flows from operations during the
foregoing periods resulted primarily from the effects of increases in various
liabilities during the year ended December 31, 1994 due to the acquisition of
the Hallmark facility and improved operating results of the Original
Facilities during the year ended December 31, 1996. Cash totaled approximately
$4.0 million, $5.1 million and $4.1 million at December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994, respectively.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities totaled approximately
$58.1 million, $689,000 and $(36.9) million for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Brookdale's investing activities included
proceeds from the sale of the Hallmark facility of $58.5 million during the
year ended December 31, 1996, capital expenditures of $42.1 million related to
the acquisition of the Hallmark facility during the year ended December 31,
1994 and improvements to existing operations totaling approximately $359,000,
$239,000 and $1.1 million for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994, respectively.
Management believes that its capital expenditure program is adequate to
improve and equip its existing facilities, and expects to finance such
expenditures primarily through cash flows from operations. Excluding the
acquisition and development of new facilities, management believes that
capital expenditures related to the construction of the 82-bed skilled nursing
facility adjacent to the Devonshire facility will approximate $5.0 million and
the expansion of the Hawthorn Lakes facility will approximate $5.0 million.
The funds necessary for such capital expenditures will be derived from
additional debt financing.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was approximately
$(64.4) million, ($349,000) and $38.3 million for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The activity primarily relates to the
repayment of the mortgage note payable on the Hallmark facility of $34.6
million, distributions to partners of $26.2 million and advances of $4.5
million made to the general partner during the year ended December 31, 1996,
the payment of the principal portion of debt and distributions to partners and
additional financing and partner contributions to fund the acquisition of the
Hallmark facility during the year ended December 31, 1994.
Brookdale plans to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the growth of
its business rather than to pay cash dividends. Payments of any cash dividends
in the future will depend on the financial condition, results of operations
and capital requirements of the Company as well as other factors deemed
relevant by the Board of Directors.
The Company currently plans to acquire or lease approximately three to five
facilities per year containing an aggregate of approximately 600 to 1,000
units, and to commence development of at least two new facilities per year
containing approximately 200 units each in urban and suburban areas of major
metropolitan markets. The Company anticipates that new developments will
require eight to 10 months for pre-construction development, 12 to 14 months
for construction and approximately 12 months after opening to achieve
stabilized occupancy. The development costs for the 175-unit prototype are
estimated to be approximately $20.0 million, or approximately $115,000 per
unit. The Company anticipates that it will use a combination of net proceeds
from the Offering, additional equity financing and debt financing, lease
transactions and cash generated from operations to fund its acquisition and
development activity. The Company currently estimates that the net proceeds
from the Offering, together with anticipated financing, will be sufficient to
fund its acquisition and development plans for approximately 24 months
following completion of the Offering. Therefore, in order to achieve its
growth plans, the Company will be required to obtain a substantial amount of
additional financing. The Company presently has no commitment, arrangement or
understanding regarding financing to fund the debt portion of the Company's
acquisition and development plans. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to obtain financing for its acquisition and development programs.
See "Risk Factors--Need for Additional Financing."
The Company has $65.0 million of long-term indebtedness as of December 31,
1996 ($93.4 million pro forma after giving effect to the Formation) in tax-
exempt bonds with floating rates. See Unaudited Pro Forma
23
<PAGE>
Combined Condensed Financial Statements of the Company contained elsewhere in
this Prospectus. The interest rates (exclusive of credit enhancement and other
fees) on such debt averaged 3.4%, 3.9% and 2.9% during the years ended December
31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Such tax-exempt bonds contain covenants
requiring the facilities to maintain a minimum number of units for income
qualified residents. The Company may enter into similar bond financing in the
future. See "Risk Factors--Adverse Consequences of Indebtedness and Lease
Obligations; Floating Rate Debt."
Following the Offering, the Company will be dependent on third-party
financing for its acquisition and development program. The Company has no
arrangements for financing but the documentation for any such financing
obtained in the future is expected to contain terms and conditions and
representations and warranties that are customary for such loans and is
expected to contain financial covenants and other restrictions that (i) require
the Company to meet certain financial tests and maintain certain escrows of
funds, (ii) limit, among other things, the ability of the Company to borrow
additional funds, dispose of assets and engage in mergers or other business
combinations and (iii) restrict the ability of the Company to operate competing
facilities within certain distances from mortgaged facilities. See "Risk
Factors--Adverse Consequences of Indebtedness and Lease Obligations; Floating
Rate Debt." There can be no assurance that financing for the Company's
acquisition and development program will be available to the Company on
acceptable terms or at all. Moreover, to the extent the Company acquires or
leases facilities that do not generate positive cash flow (after financing or
lease costs, as applicable), the Company may be required to seek additional
capital for working capital and liquidity purposes. See "Risk Factors--Need for
Additional Financing."
IMPACT OF INFLATION
Resident fees from senior and assisted living facilities owned or leased by
the Company and management fees from facilities operated by the Company are its
primary sources of revenue. These revenues are affected by monthly fee rates
and facility occupancy rates. The rates charged for the delivery of senior and
assisted living services are highly dependent upon local market conditions and
the competitive environment in which the facilities operate. Substantially all
of the Company's resident agreements are for terms of approximately one year
and allow, at the time of renewal, for adjustments in the monthly fees payable
thereunder, and thus may enable the Company to seek increases in monthly fees
due to inflation or other factors. Any such increase would be subject to market
and competitive conditions and could result in a decrease in occupancy at the
Company's facilities. The Company believes, however, that the short-term nature
of its resident agreements generally serves to reduce the risk to the Company
of the adverse effect of inflation. In addition, employee compensation expense
is a principal cost element of facility operations. There can be no assurance
that resident fees will increase or that costs will not increase due to
inflation or other causes. In addition, approximately $65.0 million ($93.4
million pro forma after giving effect to the Formation) in principal amount of
the Company's indebtedness bears interest at floating rates and future
indebtedness may bear floating rate interest. Inflation, and its impact on
floating interest rates, could materially affect the amount of interest
payments due on such indebtedness. The Company intends to purchase two-year
interest rate protection agreements with respect to $65.0 million of such
indebtedness upon the completion of the Offering, which, if so purchased, will
have the effect of mitigating the effect of inflation and higher interest rates
on such indebtedness during the terms of such contracts. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to purchase such interest rate
protection contracts on terms favorable to the Company, if at all. See "Risk
Factors--Competition" and "--Adverse Consequences of Indebtedness and Lease
Obligations; Floating Rate Debt."

BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
Brookdale provides senior and assisted living services to the elderly
through its facilities located in urban and suburban areas of major
metropolitan markets. The Company operates nine senior and assisted living
facilities containing a total of 1,968 units which, as of December 31, 1996,
were approximately 99% occupied. The Company owns four of such facilities,
leases three facilities under a long-term net operating lease and manages two
other facilities pursuant to management contracts. In addition, the Company
has entered an agreement to acquire the 200-unit Park Place facility, the
closing of which acquisition is expected to occur within 60 days following the
completion of the Offering. With facilities that contain an average of 220
units, the Company believes it is able to achieve economies of scale within
its facilities and provide senior and assisted living services in a more cost-
effective manner. The Company plans to acquire or lease approximately three to
five facilities per year containing an aggregate of approximately 600 to 1,000
units, and to commence development of at least two new facilities per year
containing approximately 200 units each. The Company has entered agreements to
acquire development sites located in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, Southfield,
Michigan and Austin, Texas, the closings of which are expected to occur within
12 months following the completion of the Offering. Brookdale had pro forma
revenues and a net loss for the year ended December 31, 1996 of approximately
$41.5 million and $602,000, respectively. The Company estimates that
approximately 99.9% of the Company's pro forma revenues are derived from
private pay sources. See "Risk Factors--Uncertainty of Proposed Acquisition,"
"--Difficulties of Integration; Future Acquisition Risks," "--Development and
Construction Risks" and "--Need for Additional Financing" and "Certain
Transactions."
Brookdale's facilities are designed for middle to upper income residents who
desire an upscale residential environment providing the highest level of
quality, care and value. The Company's objective is to allow its residents to
age in place by providing them with a continuum of senior and assisted living
services. By providing residents a range of service options as their needs
change, Brookdale seeks to achieve a greater continuity of care, thereby
enabling seniors to maintain their residency for a longer time period. The
ability to allow residents to age in place is beneficial to Brookdale's
residents as well as their families who are burdened with care option
decisions for their elderly relatives. In addition to studio, one-bedroom and
two-bedroom units, the Company provides all residents with basic services,
such as meal service, 24-hour emergency response, housekeeping, concierge
services, transportation and recreational activities. For residents who
require additional supplemental care services, the Company provides assistance
with certain activities of daily living. The average age of Brookdale's
residents is approximately 82 years old, and many of these residents require
some level of assistance with their activities of daily living. Supplemental
care services are provided either by the Company or by outside services or
agencies. The Company intends to bring "in-house" as many of these services as
practicable and has established a program providing various levels and
combinations of these services called "Personally Yours"SM.
THE SENIOR AND ASSISTED LIVING INDUSTRY
The senior and assisted living industry is a rapidly growing component of
the non-acute health care system for the elderly. The senior living industry
serves the needs of the elderly who benefit from living in a supportive
environment and may require or prefer occasional assistance with the
activities of daily living, and who no longer desire, or cannot maintain, an
independent lifestyle. It is estimated that 35% of the people over age 85
require assistance with at least one activity of daily living, such as
bathing, eating, personal hygiene, grooming and dressing. The senior and
assisted living industry remains highly fragmented, with only 5% of the
industry's units operated by the 20 largest companies in the industry, which
provides opportunities for industry consolidation.
The rapid growth of the senior and assisted living industry is supported by
several significant trends, including the following:
FAVORABLE DEMOGRAPHICS. The primary consumers of senior and assisted living
services are persons over age 65. This group represents one of the fastest
growing segments of the U.S. population. According to U.S. Bureau of the
Census data, the number of people in the U.S. age 65 and older increased by
more than 27% from 1981 to 1994, growing from 26.2 million to 33.2 million.
The segment of the population over 85 years of age, which comprises the
largest percentage of residents at senior care facilities, is projected to
increase by more than
25
<PAGE>
40% between the years 1990 and 2000. Brookdale believes that these trends,
depicted in the graph below, will contribute to continued strong demand for
senior and assisted living services.
PROJECTED PERCENTAGE CHANGE IN THE ELDERLY POPULATION OF THE U.S.
LOGO
CONSUMER PREFERENCE. The Company believes that senior and assisted living
facilities provide prospective residents and their families with an attractive
alternative to skilled nursing facilities, particularly with respect to
prospective residents who do not require the level of care or institutional
setting of skilled nursing facilities. Senior and assisted living facilities,
which are generally furnished by residents, allow residents to age in place
and preserve their independence in a more residential setting. The Company
believes these factors result in a higher quality of life than that
experienced in the more institutional or clinical settings, such as skilled
nursing facilities.
COST-EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVE. The annual per resident cost for senior and
assisted living care is significantly less than the annual per resident cost
for skilled nursing care. The Company believes that the cost of senior and
assisted living care (which includes housing and meal preparation) compares
favorably with home health care when the costs associated with housing and
meal preparation are added to the costs of home health care. Pricing pressure
is also forcing skilled nursing facilities to shift their focus toward
providing more intense levels of care enabling them to charge higher fees,
thus adding to the shortage of facilities where less intensive care is
available. The rapid growth of the elderly population coupled with continuing
constraints on the supply and availability of long term care beds is leading
to a continued shortage of long term care beds for the elderly, as the table
below illustrates.
DECLINE IN NURSING BEDS PER THOUSAND
FOR INDIVIDUALS 85 YEARS OR OLDER
LOGO
CHANGING FAMILY DYNAMICS. As a result of the growing number of two-income
families, many children are not able to care for elderly parents in their own
homes. Two-income families are, however, better able to provide financial
support for elderly parents. In addition, other factors, such as the growth in
the divorce rate and single-parent households, as well as the increasing
geographic dispersion of families, have contributed to the growing inability
of children to care for aging parents in the home.
26
<PAGE>
BUSINESS AND GROWTH STRATEGY
The Company's business and growth strategy is based on the following key
elements:
ACQUIRE AND LEASE EXISTING SENIOR AND ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES. The
Company believes that significant opportunities exist to take advantage of the
fragmented senior and assisted living industry by selectively acquiring or
leasing existing facilities. The Company's acquisition strategy will focus
primarily on facilities that are designed or can be repositioned by the
Company, by improving or enhancing available services and amenities, for
middle to upper-income private pay residents. Acquisitions will primarily
consist of large facilities, similar to the Company's current facilities that
contain an average of 220 units, located in urban and suburban areas of major
metropolitan markets. See "--Acquisitions and Development" and "Risk Factors--
Uncertainty of Proposed Acquisition" and "--Difficulties of Integration;
Future Acquisition Risks."
DEVELOP THE BROOKDALE PROTOTYPE FACILITY IN TARGETED MARKETS. The Company
intends to leverage its development expertise and construct its prototype
facility in selected sites located in urban and suburban areas of major
metropolitan markets. The Company's prototype facility, which is flexible and
can be adapted to the specific requirements of individual markets and site
requirements, contains 175 units, but can be constructed to accommodate
between 150 and 225 units. The prototype offers a mix of studio, one-bedroom
and two-bedroom units and common areas providing premium amenities. The
Company intends to begin development of at least two facilities in each of the
next five years, and anticipates that each development will require
approximately 20 to 24 months from pre-development to completion of
construction. See "--Acquisitions and Development" and "Risk Factors--
Development and Construction Risks."
FOCUS ON OPPORTUNITIES FOR LOWER COST OF CAPITAL. The Company intends to
utilize long-term, tax-exempt bond financing, when available, to finance the
acquisition and renovation of existing senior and assisted facilities and the
development of new facilities. The cost benefit of tax-exempt bond financing,
which can be a low cost source of funds in certain circumstances, is partially
offset in certain cases by the potential limit on the Company's ability to
increase prices to Qualified Residents at facilities subject to such bond
financing to the extent such increases affect the ability of the Company to
attract and retain such Qualified Residents. See "Risk Factors--Adverse
Consequences of Indebtedness and Lease Obligations; Floating Rate Debt."
PROVIDE ACCESS TO A FULL CONTINUUM OF SENIOR AND ASSISTED LIVING SERVICES.
The Company's strategy is to provide access to a full continuum of senior and
assisted living services that allows its residents' to age in place. These
services are provided either by the Company or by outside services or
agencies. It is the Company's strategy to increase the availability of
additional services and to capture the incremental revenue generated by
providing these services through Company employees. In addition, one of
Brookdale's goals is to establish hospital affiliations for each of its
facilities. Hospital affiliations provide for on-site physician and nursing
services and facilitate the provision of health care services and wellness
programs to the Company's residents. In order to offer residents a complete
range of care options, the Company is presently developing an 82-bed skilled
nursing facility on the campus of the Devonshire facility. The Company may
pursue the development of additional skilled nursing facilities at its other
facilities in selected markets. See "Risk Factors--Development and
Construction Risks," "Use of Proceeds" and "--Company Operations--Hospital
Affiliations."
UTILIZE SOPHISTICATED MARKETING PROGRAMS TO MAINTAIN HIGH OCCUPANCY RATES.
The Company utilizes sophisticated marketing programs to achieve high
occupancy rates, which as of December 31, 1996 were approximately 99% for the
Original Facilities. The Company believes that its programs will improve the
occupancy rates of facilities that the Company acquires or leases in the
future. The Company's marketing programs are designed to create community
awareness of the Company, its facilities and its services, and to cultivate
relationships with referral sources such as health care providers, physicians,
clergy, area agencies for the elderly, home health agencies and social
workers. In addition, hospital affiliations have been successfully implemented
by the Company at the Original Facilities, which provide referrals of
prospective residents. The Company believes that the success of its marketing
programs is demonstrated not only by its high occupancy rates, but also by the
Company's ability to maintain waiting lists at its facilities for prospective
residents who pay a deposit in order to be included on such lists. See "--
Company Operations--Marketing and Sales."
27
<PAGE>
UTILIZE OPERATIONAL EXPERTISE TO ENHANCE PROFITABILITY. The Company has
developed and successfully implemented sophisticated management and
operational procedures at its Original Facilities resulting in strong
operating margins and occupancy rates at these facilities. These procedures
include securing national vendor contracts where feasible to ensure consistent
low pricing, implementing sophisticated budgeting and financial controls at
each facility and establishing standardized training and operations
procedures. The Company believes that the systematic implementation of its
management and operations policies will enable the Company to enhance the
financial performance of its existing and future facilities and continue to
improve the profitability of its stabilized facilities. See "Risk Factors--
Difficulties of Integration; Future Acquisition Risks" and "--Development and
Construction Risks."
EXPAND FACILITIES WHERE ECONOMICALLY ADVANTAGEOUS. The Company has found
that certain senior and assisted living facilities with stabilized occupancies
benefit from additions and expansions offering increased capacity, as well as
additional levels of service for higher acuity residents. Furthermore, the
expansion of existing facilities allows the Company to enhance its economies
of scale by increasing the revenue base at a facility while leveraging such
facility's existing infrastructure such as the laundry equipment and the
kitchen. In addition to the planned 82-bed skilled nursing facility on the
campus of the Devonshire facility, the Company is currently planning to expand
its Hawthorn Lakes facility in Vernon Hills, Illinois with an additional 57
units. See "Risk Factors--Development and Construction Risks."

- ---------------------
(1) The Company has entered a definitive purchase agreement to acquire the
Park Place facility, a 200-unit facility located in Spokane, Washington
for approximately $14.4 million, the closing of which acquisition is
expected to occur within 60 days following the completion of the Offering.
See "Risk Factors--Uncertainty of Proposed Acquisition."
(2) The occupancy rate, which is calculated by dividing the number of occupied
units by the number of available units, was determined as of December 31,
1994 for the 1994 occupancy rate indicated, as of December 31, 1995 for
the 1995 occupancy rate indicated and as of December 31, 1996 for the 1996
occupancy rate indicated. If the occupancy rate is not indicated, such
occupancy rate was not available because the Company did not operate the
facility during such year.
(3) All facilities indicated as "Owned" are 100% owned by Brookdale.
(4) This facility is one of the Original Facilities.
(5) This facility is one of the Leased Facilities, which facilities are net
leased from HRPT to BLC pursuant to a long-term master lease. The master
lease has an initial term that expires on December 31, 2019, and BLC has
the right to extend the term of the master lease for two consecutive 25-
year renewal periods. The master lease requires minimum annual lease
payments aggregating approximately $8.3 million in 1997 and $8.8 million
in 1998 and provides for increases in minimum annual lease payments in
1999 and 2000 and additional rent payments based on a percentage of any
increases in the revenues generated by the Leased Facilities beginning in
1999. See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of BLC
Property, Inc. and Subsidiaries.
(6) This facility is owned by PGI and will be managed by the Company pursuant
to a management agreement which is expected to have an initial term of two
years, cancellable by the Company at any time upon 60 days' prior written
notice (and by PGI only for cause as set forth in the agreement during its
initial term), and a management fee of 5.0% of gross revenues and
reimbursement of expenses. See "Certain Transactions."
(7) This facility is one of the Acquired Facilities.
(8) The management agreement for this facility is expected to have a 10-year
term, cancellable upon six months' notice after the 29th month of its
term, and a management fee of 3.0% of gross revenues, an incentive fee
providing the Company with a share of certain levels of any future growth
in this facility's net operating income and reimbursement of expenses. In
addition, the management agreement is expected to provide the Company with
an option to purchase this facility.
(9) Total units exclude the planned 82-bed skilled nursing facility at the
Devonshire facility and the planned 57-unit expansion at the Hawthorn
Lakes facility.

<PAGE>
SERVICES
The Company's senior and assisted living facilities offer residents personal
support services and assistance with certain activities of daily living in a
supportive, home-like setting. Residents of the Company's facilities are
typically unable or choose not to live independently, but do not require the
24-hour nursing care provided in skilled nursing facilities. The Company's
service options are designed to meet residents' changing needs and to achieve
a continuity of care, enabling seniors to age in place and thereby maintain
their residency for a longer time period.
BASIC CARE PROGRAM
The basic care package, which is received by all residents, includes meal
service, housekeeping services within the resident's unit, social and
recreational activities, scheduled transportation to medical centers and
shopping, security, emergency call response, access to on-site medical
services and medical education and wellness programs.
SUPPLEMENTAL CARE SERVICES
In addition to the basic care services, the Company offers custom tailored
supplemental care services for residents who desire or need such services.
Optional supplemental care services include check-in services and shopping,
escort and companion services. Residents with cognitive or physical frailties
and higher level service needs are either accommodated with supplemental
services in their own units or, in certain facilities, are cared for in a more
structured and supervised environment on a separate wing or floor of the
facility with a dedicated staff and with separate dining rooms and activity
areas.
At present, many residents receive supplemental services from outside third
parties. The Company has also established a program providing various levels
and combinations of supplemental care services called "Personally Yours"SM.
This personal service program provides certain non-licensed services, such as
companion services, assistance with dressing and bathing, medication
reminders, check-in services, shopping and escort services. The Company plans
to expand its supplemental service offerings, where permitted, in order to
capture incremental revenue and enable its residents to remain in its
facilities longer. In addition, where practicable, the Company intends to
obtain licensure to provide licensed home health services to residents.
Certain services, such as physician care, infusion therapy, physical and
speech therapy and other home health care services, are provided to many of
Brookdale's residents who need these services by third parties. The Company
assists residents in locating qualified providers for such health care
services.
COMPANY OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The Company continually reviews opportunities to expand the amount of
services it provides to its residents. To date, the Company has been able to
increase its monthly service fees on an annual basis and has experienced
increasing facility operating margins at the Original Facilities through a
combination of the implementation of efficient operating procedures and the
economies of scale associated with its larger than average facilities. The
Company's operating procedures include securing national vendor contracts
where appropriate to obtain consistent low pricing, implementing sophisticated
budgeting and financial controls at each facility and establishing
standardized training and operations procedures. The Company believes that
successful senior and assisted living operators must combine health care,
hospitality and real estate operations expertise.
Brookdale has implemented intensive standards, policies and procedures
systems, including detailed staff manuals, which the Company believes have
contributed to Brookdale's high facility operating margins. The Company has
centralized accounting, finance and other operating functions at its corporate
headquarters so that, consistent with its operating philosophy, facility-based
personnel focus on resident care. Headquarters staff in
29
<PAGE>
Chicago, Illinois are responsible for: the establishment of Company-wide
policies and procedures relating to, among other things, resident care,
facility design and facility operations; billings and collections; accounts
payable; finance and accounting; development of employee training materials
and programs; marketing activities; the hiring and training of management and
other facility-based personnel; compliance with applicable local and state
regulatory requirements; and implementation of the Company's acquisition,
development and leasing plans.
FACILITY STAFFING AND TRAINING
Each facility has an Executive Director responsible for the day-to-day
operations of the facility, including quality of care, social services and
financial performance. Each Executive Director receives specialized training
from the Company. In addition, a portion of each Executive Director's
compensation is directly tied to the operating performance of the facility and
to the maintenance of high occupancy levels. The Company believes that the
quality and size of its facilities, coupled with its competitive compensation
philosophy, have enabled it to attract high-quality, professional
administrators. Each Executive Director is supported by a Resident Services
Director who is directly responsible for day-to-day care of the residents and
a Marketing Director who oversees marketing and community outreach programs.
Other key positions at each facility include the Food Service Director, the
Activities Director, the Housekeeping Director, the Engineering Director and
the Business Manager. See "Risk Factors--Dependence on Senior Management and
Skilled Personnel."
The Company believes that quality of care and operating efficiency can be
maximized by direct resident and staff contact. Employees involved in resident
care, including the administrative staff, are trained in the support and care
needs of the residents and emergency response techniques. The Company has
adopted formal training and evaluation procedures to help ensure quality care
for its residents. The Company has extensive policy and procedure manuals for
each department and holds ongoing training sessions for management and staff
at each site. See "Risk Factors--Difficulties of Managing Rapid Growth."
QUALITY ASSURANCE
The Company maintains quality assurance programs at each of its facilities
through its corporate headquarters staff. The Company's quality assurance
program is designed to achieve a high degree of resident and family member
satisfaction with the care and services provided by the Company. The Company's
quality control measures include, among other things, facility inspections
conducted by corporate staff on at least a monthly 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.
The Company's quality control measures also include the survey of residents
and family members on a regular basis to monitor the quality of services
provided to residents. The survey process begins with a visitor's survey sent
one week following a potential resident's visit to a facility to ascertain his
or her opinions and initial impressions. Detailed annual written surveys and
exit surveys are used to appraise and monitor the level of satisfaction of
residents and their families with facility operations and services.
In order to foster a sense of community as well as to respond to residents'
desires, at each facility the Company has initiated the establishment of a
resident council, an advisory committee elected by the residents, that meets
monthly with the Executive Director of the facility. Separate resident
committees also exist for food service, activities, marketing and hospitality.
These committees promote resident involvement and satisfaction and enable
facility management to be more responsive to the residents' needs and desires.
MARKETING AND SALES
The Company's marketing strategy is intended to create awareness of the
Company 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.
30
<PAGE>
Brookdale's marketing staff develops overall strategies for promoting the
Company and monitors the success of the Company's marketing efforts. Each
facility has a Director of Marketing who oversees the facility's marketing and
outreach programs and supervises the on-site marketing staff and move-in
coordinators. Besides direct contacts with prospective referral sources, the
Company also relies on print advertising, yellow pages advertising, direct
mail, signage and special events, such as grand openings for new facilities,
health fairs and community receptions. In addition, resident referral programs
have been established and are promoted at each facility. See "Risk Factors--
Competition."
HOSPITAL AFFILIATIONS
Another key element in the Company's strategy is to establish affiliations
between Brookdale's facilities and hospitals. The Hallmark and the Heritage
facilities are affiliated with Saint Joseph Health Centers and Hospital and
Holy Family Hospital, respectively, pursuant to agreements with the respective
hospitals. Both agreements grant the hospitals the right to lease space from
the Company at the respective facilities and provide that the hospitals will
maintain centers in the facilities to make services available to facility
residents. Each hospital pays rent for its leased space, and the Company
compensates the hospitals for making the services they render available at the
facilities. The annual amounts paid by the hospitals pursuant to the rental
arrangements at the Hallmark and the Heritage facilities are approximately
equal to the annual amounts paid by such facilities to such respective
hospitals pursuant to the applicable compensation arrangements. The agreement
regarding the Heritage facility terminates in 1998 and the agreement regarding
the Hallmark facility terminates in 1999, but will be automatically extended
unless either the hospital or the Company gives notice of termination.
Although not subject to a written agreement, the Devonshire facility has an
affiliation with Good Samaritan Hospital on terms similar to the agreements
regarding the Hallmark and the Heritage facilities. The Company is currently
pursuing hospital affiliations for the Gables at Brighton, the Springs of East
Mesa, the Hawthorn Lakes and the Edina Park Plaza facilities and has not
assumed and will not be assuming any existing health care or hospital
affiliation agreements at such facilities. In addition, the Company intends to
arrange such affiliations for facilities that it acquires, develops or leases
in the future. Hospital affiliations provide for on-site physician and nursing
services and facilitate the provision of health care services and wellness
programs to the Company's residents and provide the Company with a referral
source.
ACQUISITIONS AND DEVELOPMENT
The Company evaluates markets for acquisition and development opportunities
based on demographics and market studies. The Company's acquisition and
development strategy will focus on the urban and suburban areas of major
metropolitan markets.
ACQUISITIONS
The Company currently expects to acquire three to five facilities per year
containing an aggregate of approximately 600 to 1,000 units. The Company may
acquire facilities as a means of entry to new markets and may also seek to
acquire facilities within its existing markets to gain further market share
and leverage its existing market awareness. Acquisitions are expected to
primarily consist of large facilities that are similar to the Company's
current facilities, which average approximately 220 units per facility. In
reviewing acquisition opportunities, the Company considers, among other
things, underlying demographics, facility location within its neighborhood or
community, the current reputation of the facility in the marketplace and the
ability of the Company to improve or enhance a facility's available services
and amenities. Further, the Company evaluates the opportunity to improve or
enhance services and operating results through the implementation of the
Company's standard operating procedures. See "Risk Factors--Difficulties of
Integration; Future Acquisition Risks" and "--Need for Additional Financing."
PGI acquired the Hallmark, a 341-unit facility in Chicago, Illinois in June
1994. Simultaneously with the completion of the Offering, the Company will
acquire Hawthorn Lakes, a 202-unit facility in Vernon Hills,
31
<PAGE>
Illinois and Edina Park Plaza, a 201-unit facility in Edina, Minnesota. In
addition, the Company will enter into a management contract to operate the
Kenwood, a 150-unit facility in Minneapolis, Minnesota, which also provides
Brookdale with an option to acquire such facility. Also, the Company has
entered a definitive purchase agreement to acquire the Park Place facility, a
200-unit facility in Spokane, Washington, the closing of which acquisition is
expected to occur within 60 days following the completion of the Offering. See
"Risk Factors--Uncertainty of Proposed Acquisition" and "--Difficulties of
Integration; Future Acquisition Risks."
DEVELOPMENT
The Company currently intends to commence the development of at least two
facilities per year. The Company's flexible prototype facility contains 175
units, but can be constructed to accommodate between 150 to 225 units. The
size of a particular facility will depend on site size, zoning and underlying
market characteristics. The Company's 175-unit prototype contains
approximately 165,000 square feet in a four-story building and contains a mix
of studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. In addition to the living units,
the Company's prototype contains common areas for residents, including a
living room, library, billiards room, multi-purpose room, arts and crafts
room, exercise room, convenience store, beauty/barber shop, mail room, dining
room and private dining room. The Company anticipates that new developments
will require eight to 10 months for pre-construction development, 12 to 14
months for construction and approximately 12 months after opening to achieve
stabilized occupancy. The development costs for the 175-unit prototype are
estimated to be approximately $20 million, or approximately $115,000 per unit.
The Company evaluates markets in which to develop its prototype based on a
number of factors, including demographic profiles of both potential residents
and their adult children, existing competitors and lack of new entrants,
estimated market demand and zoning prospects. Site selection is based on
established criteria relating to land cost and conditions, visibility,
accessibility, immediate adjacencies, community perception and zoning
prospects. Full market feasibility studies, which include evaluations of all
potential competitors, extensive interviews with key community sources and
health care providers and demographic studies, are conducted for each site.
The Company is presented with potential sites by independent brokers,
developers, health care organizations and financial institutions and through
internal site identification. If a site meets the Company's general market
criteria, then the Company will order a preliminary market study by an
independent third party. If the market study indicates that the site meets its
selection criteria, the Company will then conduct a more in-depth analysis of
the market to ensure there is a demonstrated need for senior and assisted
living services and that the site is appropriate in terms of location, size
and zoning. If the market and site meet all of the Company's selection
criteria, the property will be purchased for development. See "Risk Factors--
Development and Construction Risks" and "--Need for Additional Financing."
The Company has entered definitive purchase agreements to acquire
development sites located in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, Southfield, Michigan and
Austin, Texas for approximately $7.2 million in the aggregate. The closings of
the Company's purchase of the development sites is subject to certain
customary conditions, including zoning and other governmental approvals.
Although the Company expects the acquisitions of the development sites to be
consummated within 12 months following the completion of the Offering, there
can be no assurance that the conditions to closing such acquisitions will be
satisfied in a timely manner, if at all. See "Risk Factors--Development and
Construction Risks."
COMPETITION
The senior and assisted living industry is highly competitive and the
Company expects that it will become more competitive in the future. The
Company will continue to face competition from numerous local, regional and
national providers of senior and assisted living services. The Company will
compete with such facilities primarily on the bases of cost, quality of care
and the array of services provided. The Company will also compete
32
<PAGE>
with companies providing home based health care based on those factors as well
as the reputation, geographic location and physical appearance of facilities
and family preferences. Some of the Company's competitors operate on a not-
for-profit basis or as charitable organizations or have, or may obtain,
greater financial resources than those of the Company.
Moreover, in the implementation of the Company's business and growth
strategy, the Company expects to face competition for the acquisition and
development of senior and assisted living facilities. Consequently, there can
be no assurance that the Company will not encounter increased competition in
the future which could limit its ability to attract residents or expand its
business and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
condition, results of operations and prospects. See "Risk Factors--
Competition."
GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION
Senior and assisted living facilities are subject to varying degrees of
federal, state and local regulation and licensing by local and state health
and social service agencies and other regulatory authorities. While
regulations and licensing requirements often vary significantly from state to
state, they typically address, among other things: personnel education,
training and records; facility services; physical plant specifications;
furnishing of resident units; food and housekeeping services; emergency
evacuation plans; and resident rights and responsibilities. In most states,
senior and assisted living facilities also are subject to state or local
building codes, fire codes and food service licensure or certification
requirements. Assisted living facilities may be subject to periodic survey or
inspection by governmental authorities. In Illinois, where the Original
Facilities are located, and perhaps in certain other states in which the
Company may operate in the future, the Company may be unable to provide
certain higher levels of assisted living services without obtaining the
appropriate licenses, if applicable. The Company's success will depend in part
on its ability to satisfy such regulations and requirements and to acquire and
maintain required licenses. The Company's operations could also be adversely
affected by, among other things, regulatory developments such as revisions in
licensing and certification standards.
Some states have adopted certificate of need or similar laws applicable to
assisted living and nursing facilities which generally require that the
appropriate state agency approve certain acquisitions or capital expenditures
and determine that a need exists for certain new bed additions or new
services. Many states have placed a moratorium on granting certificates of
need or otherwise stated their intent not to grant approval for such
expenditures. To the extent certificates of need or other similar approvals
are required for expansion of Company operations, such expansion could be
adversely affected by the failure or inability to obtain the necessary
approvals or possible delays in obtaining such approvals.
Although the Company currently does not participate in the Medicare or
Medicaid programs, the hospitals with which it has affiliations do participate
in those programs, and the Company intends to participate in the Medicare
program at the skilled nursing facility to be constructed at the Devonshire
facility. Also, all of the Company's residents are eligible for Medicare
benefits. Therefore, certain aspects of the Company's business are and will be
subject to federal and state laws and regulations which govern financial and
other arrangements between and among health care providers, suppliers and
vendors. These laws prohibit certain direct and indirect payments and fee-
splitting arrangements designed to induce or encourage the referral of
patients to, or the recommendation of, a particular provider or other entity
or person for medical products and services. These laws include, but are not
limited to, the federal "anti-kickback law" which prohibits, among other
things, the offer, payment, solicitation or receipt of any form of
remuneration in return for the referral of Medicare and Medicaid patients. The
Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human
Services, the Department of Justice and other federal agencies interpret these
statutes liberally and enforce them aggressively. Members of Congress have
proposed legislation that would significantly expand the federal government's
involvement in curtailing fraud and abuse and increase the monetary penalties
for violation of these provisions. Violation of these laws can result in,
among other things, loss of licensure, civil and criminal penalties for
individuals and entities and exclusion of health care providers or suppliers
from participation in the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs.
33
<PAGE>
In addition, although the Company is not a Medicare or Medicaid provider or
supplier, it is subject to these laws because (i) the state laws typically
apply regardless of whether Medicare or Medicaid payments are at issue, (ii)
the Company plans to build and operate a skilled nursing facility at its
Devonshire facility and may establish licensed home health agencies which are
intended to participate in Medicare and (iii) as required under some state
licensure laws, and for the convenience of its residents, some of the
Company's senior and assisted living facilities maintain contracts with
hospitals, who in turn maintain contracts with certain health care providers
and practitioners, including pharmacies, home health agencies and hospices,
through which the health care providers make their health care items or
services (some of which may be covered by Medicare or Medicaid) available to
facility residents. There can be no assurance that such laws will be
interpreted in a manner consistent with the practices of the Company.
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, all places of public
accommodation are required to meet certain federal requirements related to
access and use by disabled persons. A number of additional federal, state and
local laws exist which also may require modifications to existing and planned
properties to create access to the properties by disabled persons. While the
Company believes that its facilities are substantially in compliance with
present requirements or are exempt therefrom, if required changes involve a
greater expenditure than anticipated or must be made on a more accelerated
basis than anticipated, additional costs would be incurred by the Company.
Further legislation may impose additional burdens or restrictions with respect
to access by disabled persons, the costs of compliance with which could be
substantial.
The Company and its activities are subject to zoning and other state and
local government regulations. Zoning variances or use permits are often
required for construction. Severely restrictive regulations could impair the
ability of the Company to open additional facilities at desired locations or
could result in costly delays, which could adversely affect the Company's
business and growth strategy and results of operations. See "Risk Factors--
Development and Construction Risks" and "--Governmental Regulation."
THE COMPANY AND THE FORMATION
The Company was incorporated in Delaware on September 4, 1996 and is wholly
owned by an affiliate of The Prime Group, Inc. At the completion of the
Offering, the shares owned by such affiliate will be repurchased by the
Company in accordance with a subscription agreement between the Company and
such affiliate at a nominal price. BLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of PGI, was
incorporated in Delaware on December 12, 1996 to facilitate the December 1996
sale and leaseback of PGI's Hallmark facility. Pursuant to such sale and
leaseback transaction, HRPT purchased the Hallmark facility from PGI and
leased such facility to BLC pursuant to a net operating lease. Concurrently
with such transaction, HRPT acquired the Springs of East Mesa and the Gables
at Brighton facilities from a third party and net leased such facilities to
BLC, and BLC in turn subleased each of the Leased Facilities to separate,
wholly owned subsidiaries of BLC.
Pursuant to the Formation Agreement, in connection with the completion of
the Offering, PGI will contribute to the Company all of the capital stock of
BLC, its interests in the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities and the
operations relating to its senior and assisted living division (including all
of the capital stock of a wholly owned subsidiary of PGI that holds certain
rights relating to the proposed skilled nursing facility on the campus of the
Devonshire facility) in exchange for 2,071,334 shares of Common Stock and the
assumption by the Company of certain indebtedness in the aggregate amount of
$65.0 million. Further, PGI will covenant that the partnerships owning the
Heritage and the Devonshire facilities will have no less than $800,000 in the
aggregate in unrestricted cash upon the completion of the Offering; however,
any unrestricted cash in excess of $800,000 then held by such partnerships
will be distributed to PGI. In addition, in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the master lease between HRPT and BLC governing the Leased
Facilities, upon the closing of the Offering and PGI's contribution of all of
BLC's capital stock to the Company, certain affiliates of PGI, including The
Prime Group, Inc., will be released by HRPT from such affiliates' guaranties
of BLC's obligations under the master lease. In addition, the Company will pay
PGI approximately $7.2 million to reimburse PGI for earnest monies previously
paid by PGI in connection with the acquisition of the Acquired Facilities, the
Park Place
34
<PAGE>
facility, a third party's interests in the Heritage and the Devonshire
facilities and the proposed acquisitions of the development sites located in
Glen Ellyn, Illinois, Southfield, Michigan and Austin, Texas and for certain
costs and expenses previously paid by PGI relating to the issuance and
distribution of Common Stock pursuant to the Offering. At the Formation, in
accordance with the Formation Agreement, Mark J. Schulte, President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, will transfer all of his interests in the
senior and assisted living division to the Company in exchange for 328,666
shares of Common Stock. The Company, at the completion of the Offering, will
also enter (i) a management agreement with PGI to manage the Island on Lake
Travis facility and (ii) a management agreement (and an option to purchase)
regarding the Kenwood facility with a third party unaffiliated with PGI that
owns the Kenwood facility. See "Risk Factors--Benefits to Affiliates," "Use of
Proceeds," "--Facilities" and "Certain Transactions."
The Company currently has credit enhancement securing the $65.0 million of
tax-exempt bonds relating to the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities which
it must replace on or before the date of the acquisition of these facilities.
Bank One, Illinois, NA has issued a commitment, and the Company expects to
obtain an extension of an expired commitment previously obtained from LaSalle
National Bank, in each case pursuant to which letters of credit with a
maturity of three years from the date of issuance of such letters of credit
would be provided as replacement credit enhancement for such tax-exempt bonds.
On or prior to the completion of the Offering, the Company will have executed
definitive agreements with such banks to issue the letters of credit. In
addition to the mortgages on the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities, it is
anticipated that estimated cash collateral of approximately $11.0 million from
the net proceeds of the Offering will be pledged as additional collateral and
the letters of credit will be guaranteed to the extent of 30% by the Company.
The Company intends to purchase two-year interest rate protection agreements
with respect to such tax-exempt indebtedness upon the completion of the
Offering, which, if so purchased, will have the effect of mitigating the
effect of inflation and higher interest rates on such indebtedness during the
terms of such contracts. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to purchase such interest rate protection contracts on terms favorable to
the Company, if at all.
EMPLOYEES
The Company has approximately 713 employees, of which 20 are employed at the
Company's headquarters. The Company believes employee relations are good.
INSURANCE
The provision of personal and health care services entails an inherent risk
of liability. Compared to more institutional long-term care facilities, senior
and assisted living residences offer residents a greater degree of
independence in their daily lives. This increased level of independence,
however, may subject the resident and the Company to certain risks that would
be reduced in more institutionalized settings. The Company currently maintains
liability insurance intended to cover such claims which it believes is
adequate based on the nature of the risks, its historical experience and
industry standards. See "Risk Factors--Liability and Insurance."
EXECUTIVE OFFICES
The Company's executive office is located in Chicago, Illinois, where the
Company leases approximately 4,500 square feet under an agreement with an
affiliate of PGI. See "Certain Transactions."
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is involved in various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal
course of business. In the opinion of management of the Company, although the
outcomes of these suits and claims are uncertain, in the aggregate they should
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations.

COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Audit Committee. The members of the Audit Committee will consist of certain
of the Independent Directors. The Audit Committee, among other things, makes
recommendations concerning the engagement of independent auditors, reviews the
results and scope of the annual audit and other services provided by the
Company's independent auditors and reviews the adequacy of the Company's
internal accounting controls.
Compensation Committee. The members of the Compensation Committee will
consist of certain of the Independent Directors. The Compensation Committee
makes recommendations to the full Board of Directors concerning salary and
bonus compensation and benefits for executive officers of the Company. In
addition, the Compensation Committee has the power and authority to implement
and administer the Company's Stock Incentive Plan.
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS; INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENTS
The Company intends to pay its directors who are not employees of the
Company a fee for their services as directors. They will receive annual
compensation of $12,000 plus a fee of $1,000 for attendance at each meeting of
the Board of Directors and $500 for attendance at each committee meeting. The

expenses related to their attendance at both board and committee meetings. The
Company anticipates that it will grant to each non-employee director certain
options to purchase Common Stock. See "--Stock Incentive Plan."
The Company intends to enter indemnification agreements with each of the
Company's directors. The indemnification agreements will require, among other
things, that the Company indemnify such directors to the fullest extent
permitted by law, and advance to the directors all related expenses, subject
to reimbursement if it is subsequently determined that indemnification is not
permitted. The Company also must indemnify and advance all expenses incurred
by directors seeking to enforce their rights under the indemnification
agreements, and cover directors under the Company's directors' and officers'
liability insurance.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Company was organized in September 1996, did not conduct any operations
and, accordingly, did not pay any cash compensation to its executive officers
for the year ended December 31, 1996. The following table sets forth the
annual base salary expected to be paid to the Company's Chairman of the Board,
Chief Executive Officer and each of the other five most highly compensated

STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
The Company has established a Stock Incentive Plan (the "Stock Incentive
Plan") for the purpose of attracting and retaining directors, executive
officers and other key employees. Each option granted pursuant to the Stock
Incentive Plan shall be designated at the time of grant as either an
"incentive stock option" or as a "non-qualified stock option."
The Stock Incentive Plan provides for the grants of options ("Options") to
purchase a specified number of shares of Common Stock. Under the Stock
Incentive Plan, 830,000 shares of Common Stock will be available for grants.
Participants in the Stock Incentive Plan, who may be directors, officers or
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries or Company-owned partnerships,
will be selected by the Compensation Committee. See "--Compensation of
Directors; Indemnification Agreements."
The Stock Incentive Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee to grant
incentive stock options at an exercise price to be determined by it, provided
that such price cannot be less than 100% of the fair market value of the
Common Stock on the date on which the Option is granted. If an incentive stock
option is to be granted to an employee who owns over 10% of the total combined
voting power of all classes of the Company's stock, then the exercise price
may not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the Common Stock covered
by such option on the day it is granted. The exercise price of non-qualified
stock options may be any price determined by the Compensation Committee.
Upon completion of the Offering, the Company will grant 675,000 Options (the
"Initial Grants") to the following key officers and employees of the Company:
Michael W. Reschke (75,000); Mark J. Schulte (175,000); Darryl W. Copeland,
Jr. (275,000); Craig G. Walczyk (25,000); Matthew F. Whitlock (25,000); Mark
J. Iuppenlatz (25,000); Stephan T. Beck (25,000); Sheryl A. Wolf (25,000); and
Margaret B. Shontz (25,000).
The Initial Grants will vest, subject to certain conditions being met, at
the rate of 25% per year over the next four years commencing on the first
anniversary of their date of grant and will have a term of 10 years. The
exercise price of the Options issued pursuant to the Initial Grants will be
the initial public offering price of the Common Stock. The exercise price for
any Option is generally payable in cash or, in certain circumstances, by the
surrender, at the fair market value on the date on which the Option is
exercised, of shares of Common Stock.
Any unvested Options held by an optionee will automatically be forfeited if
the optionee leaves employment for any reason. Upon a "change in control" (as
defined in the Stock Incentive Plan), all unvested Options will vest. The
rights of any participants to exercise an Option may not be transferred in any
way other than by will or laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a
qualified domestic relations order.
The Company also anticipates that it will grant an aggregate of 20,000
Options to its non-employee directors that will vest at the rate of 33.3% per
year over the next three years commencing on the first anniversary of their
date of grant and will have a term of 10 years. The exercise price of these
Options will be the initial public offering price of the Common Stock. The
exercise price for any of these Options will generally be payable in cash or,
in certain circumstances, by the surrender, at the fair market value on the
date on which the Option is exercised, of shares of Common Stock.
The Compensation Committee may grant options under the Stock Incentive Plan
in substitution for outstanding options with higher exercise prices. In
addition, in the event of certain extraordinary events, the Compensation
Committee may make adjustments in the aggregate number and kind of shares
reserved for issuance, the number and kind of shares covered by outstanding
awards and the exercise prices specified therein as may be determined to be
appropriate.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
The Company has entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Reschke,
Schulte, Copeland, Whitlock and Iuppenlatz. These agreements provide that the
executive officers shall devote substantially all of their business time to
the operation of the Company, except for Mr. Michael W. Reschke who shall only
be required to devote such time as he deems necessary to fulfill his duties
and obligations to the Company as Chairman of the Board. The agreements with
Messrs. Reschke, Schulte, Copeland, Whitlock and Iuppenlatz establish the
initial base salaries set forth in the executive compensation table and
provide for an initial three year term (except in the case of the agreement
with Mr. Copeland, which provides for an initial four year term) which is
automatically extended for an additional year after expiration of the initial
term and any extension period unless the Company provides the executive
officer with at least 30 days' prior written notice that such term shall not
be extended. The agreement with Mr. Schulte also provides for an annual bonus
of up to 150% of the base salary. The agreement with Mr. Copeland provides for
an annual bonus of up to 100% of the base salary, a signing bonus of $150,000
and an initial stock grant, subject to a two-year vesting period, of 100,000
shares of Common Stock. The agreements with Messrs. Whitlock and Iuppenlatz
also provide for annual bonuses based on certain performance criteria. If any
of such agreements are terminated by the Company "without cause" (as such term
is defined in the agreements), the executive so terminated will be entitled to
a lump sum payment. With respect to Messrs. Whitlock and Iuppenlatz, such lump
sum payment will be an amount equal to six months base salary. With regard to
Messrs. Reschke and Schulte, such executives will receive a lump sum payment
equal to the greater of 50% of their base salary for the remainder of the term
of their agreements or an amount equal to their base salary for one year. Upon
any such termination of Mr. Copeland's agreement, Mr. Copeland will receive a
lump sum payment equal to the base salary for one year plus a pro rata portion
of the annual bonus. Messrs. Reschke, Schulte and Copeland may terminate their
respective agreements and be entitled to approximately two times their annual
compensation in the event of a "change in control" of the Company and a
material diminution of their respective duties and responsibilities or
compensation. In the event any of Messrs. Schulte, Copeland, Whitlock and
Iuppenlatz voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company, the
executive will be subject to a non-compete agreement with a term of two years.
Mr. Reschke is bound by the non-compete agreement between PGI and the Company.
See "Certain Transactions."

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
The following agreements will be entered in connection with the Formation
and the Offering:
Formation Agreement. At the Formation and pursuant to the Formation
Agreement, PGI will transfer to the Company all of the capital stock of BLC,
its interests in the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities and the operations
relating to its senior and assisted living division. In return for such
contribution, the Company will exchange 2,071,334 shares of its Common Stock
and will assume certain indebtedness in the aggregate amount of $65.0 million.
In addition, the Company will pay PGI approximately $7.2 million to reimburse
PGI for earnest monies previously paid by PGI in connection with the
acquisition of the Acquired Facilities, the Park Place facility, a third
party's interests in the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities and the
proposed acquisitions of the development sites located in Glen Ellyn,
Illinois, Southfield, Michigan and Austin, Texas and for certain costs and
expenses previously paid by PGI relating to the issuance and distribution of
Common Stock pursuant to the Offering. In accordance with the Formation
Agreement, Mark J. Schulte will transfer all of his interests in PGI's senior
and assisted living division to the Company in exchange for 328,666 shares of
Common Stock from the Company. Except as expressly set forth in the Formation
Agreement with regard to title, liens, claims and certain other items and
PGI's representations that the Original Facilities have been operated in the
ordinary course since December 31, 1996, no party is making any representation
or warranty as to the assets, businesses or liabilities transferred or assumed
as part of the Formation, as to any consents or approvals required in
connection therewith, as to the value thereof or as to freedom from
counterclaim with respect to any claim of any party. Except as expressly set
forth in the Formation Agreement, all assets are being transferred on an "as
is, where is" basis. In the Formation Agreement, PGI will covenant that the
partnerships owning the Heritage and the Devonshire facilities will have no
less than $800,000 in the aggregate in unrestricted cash upon the completion
of the Offering; however, any amounts in excess of $800,000 then held by such
partnerships will be distributed to PGI. See "Risk Factors--Lack of Arm's
Length Negotiations" and "--Benefits to Affiliates" and "The Company and the
Formation."
The Company will indemnify PGI and its affiliates against certain losses,
claims, damages or liabilities including those arising out of: (i) any
inaccurate representation or breach of warranty by the Company under the
Formation Agreement; and (ii) any indebtedness, lease, contract or other
obligation assumed by the Company pursuant to the Formation Agreement. The
Company will also indemnify PGI, as a controlling person, against any loss,
claim, damage or liability arising out of the Offering, except for losses,
claims, damages or liabilities arising from the inaccuracy of information
supplied in writing by PGI for inclusion in this Prospectus. PGI will
similarly indemnify the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to any
inaccurate representation or breach of warranty by PGI under the Formation
Agreement.
Registration Rights Agreement. The Company will grant demand and incidental
registration rights to PGI for the registration of shares of Common Stock
owned by PGI under the Securities Act. See "Description of Capital Stock--
Registration Rights Agreement."
Voting Agreement. PGI will enter a Voting Agreement pursuant to which it
will agree to vote all of its shares of Common Stock at any meeting at which
directors are elected in favor of the election of independent directors so
that after such election, if such persons are elected, there will be at least
four independent directors. The Voting Agreement will continue in effect until
the earlier of three years from the date of the Offering and the date PGI
first owns less than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock.
Non-Compete Agreements. The Company, PGI and Mr. Reschke will enter a Non-
Compete Agreement that will prevent PGI and Mr. Reschke from developing,
acquiring, owning or operating senior and assisting living facilities and
semi-acute care facilities in the United States for a period expiring on the
earlier of (i) four years from the date of the Offering and (ii) one year from
the date of a merger of the Company or the sale of all or substantially all of
the stock or assets of the Company; however, PGI will be permitted to maintain
its ownership interest in the Island on Lake Travis facility. In addition, to
the extent PGI or Mr. Reschke were to acquire a group of properties that
included facilities similar to those operated by the Company, then the Company
would
41
<PAGE>
have the right and opportunity to purchase such similar facilities at a price
equal to their fair market value. PGI and Mr. Reschke will be allowed to
provide debt or lease financing for properties that are similar to the
facilities owned or managed by the Company. See "Risk Factors--Lack of Arm's
Length Negotiations."
Management Agreement. The Company and PGI will enter a management agreement
for a term of two years with respect to the Island on Lake Travis facility.
The Company will be paid a monthly fee of 5.0% of the gross revenues of such
facility for each month and reimbursement of expenses. The management
agreement may be terminated by PGI only for cause as set forth in the
management agreement during its initial term and upon 60 days' prior written
notice at any time after the expiration of the initial term. The Company may
terminate the management agreement at any time upon 60 days' advance notice.
Space Sharing Agreement. The Company and PGI will enter a space sharing
agreement for office space located at 77 West Wacker Drive in Chicago,
Illinois to be used as headquarters for the Company. The space sharing
agreement will have an initial term of four months and thereafter may be
extended in increments of two- month terms for up to 12 additional months, at
a base rental rate of approximately $8,800 per month plus a pro rata share of
real estate taxes and operating expenses.
Wayne D. Boberg, a director designee of the Company, is a partner of the law
firm of Winston & Strawn, which has provided, and continues to provide, legal
services to the Company.
In the future, transactions between the Company and its officers, directors,
principal stockholders and their affiliates will require the approval of a
majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors.

<PAGE>
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate")
provides that the authorized capital stock of the Company consists of
75,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common
Stock"), and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share
(the "Preferred Stock"). Upon completion of the Offering, 7,500,000 shares of
Common Stock will be issued and outstanding (8,250,000 shares if the
Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full), and no shares of
Preferred Stock will be issued or outstanding.
COMMON STOCK
Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all
matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The Certificate does not provide
for cumulative voting, and, accordingly, the holders of a majority of the
shares of Common Stock entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect
all of the directors standing for election. The Certificate provides that
whenever there is paid, or declared and set aside for payment, to the holders
of the outstanding shares of any class of stock having preference over the
Common Stock as to the payment of dividends, the full amount of dividends and
of sinking fund or retirement fund or other retirement payments, if any, to
which such holders are entitled, then dividends may be paid on the Common
Stock out of any assets legally available therefor, but only when and as
declared by the Board of Directors. The Certificate also provides that in the
event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, after
there is paid to or set aside for the holders of any class of stock having
preference over the Common Stock the full amount to which such holders are
entitled and after payment or provision for payment of all debts and
liabilities of the Company, the holders of the Common Stock shall be entitled
to receive the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution, in
cash or in kind. The holders of Common Stock have no preemptive, subscription,
redemption or conversion rights. The rights, preferences and privileges of
holders of Common Stock will be subject to the rights of the holders of any
shares of any series of Preferred Stock that the Company may issue in the
future.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Certificate provides that the Board of Directors of the Company is
authorized to issue Preferred Stock in series and to fix and state the voting
powers, and such designations, preferences and relative participating,
optional or other special rights of the shares of each such series and the
qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof. Such action may be taken
by the Board without stockholder approval. Under the Certificate, each share
of each series of Preferred Stock is to have the same relative rights as, and
be identical in all respects with, all other shares of the same series. While
providing flexibility in connection with possible financings, acquisitions and
other corporate purposes, the issuance of Preferred Stock, among other things,
could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of Common Stock and,
under certain circumstances, be used as a means of discouraging, delaying or
preventing a change in control of the Company. There will be no shares of
Preferred Stock outstanding upon completion of the Offering, and the Company
has no present plan to issue shares of its Preferred Stock.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION
Limitations of Director Liability. Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, as amended (the "DGCL"), authorizes corporations to limit or
eliminate the personal liability of directors to corporations and their
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of directors' fiduciary duty of
care. Although Section 102(b)(7) does not change directors' duty of care, it
enables corporations to limit available relief to equitable remedies such as
injunction or rescission. The Certificate limits the liability of directors to
the Company or its stockholders to the full extent permitted by Section
102(b)(7). Specifically, directors of the Company are not personally liable
for monetary damages to the Company or its stockholders for breach of the
director's fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability: (i) for any
breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders;
(ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing
44
<PAGE>
violation of law; (iii) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock
repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL; or (iv) for
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Indemnification. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company's
Amended and Restated By-laws (the "By-laws") provide for mandatory
indemnification of directors and officers of the Company against any expense,
liability and loss to which they may become subject, or which they may incur
as a result of being or having been a director or officer of the Company. In
addition, the Company must advance or reimburse directors and officers for
expenses incurred by them in connection with indemnifiable claims.
The Company also maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance.
CERTAIN ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS
Upon completion of the Offering, the Certificate and the By-laws will
contain, among other things, certain provisions described below that may
reduce the likelihood of a change in the Board of Directors or voting control
of the Company without the consent of the Board of Directors. These provisions
could have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing tender offers or
takeover attempts that some or a majority of the stockholders might consider
to be in the stockholders' best interest, including offers or attempts that
might result in payment of a premium over the market price for the Common
Stock.
Classification of Board of Directors. The Certificate and the By-laws of the
Company divide the Board of Directors into three classes, designated Class I,
Class II and Class III, respectively, each class to be as nearly equal in
number as possible. The terms of Class I, Class II and Class III directors
will expire at the 1998, 1999 and 2000 annual meetings of stockholders,
respectively, and in all cases directors elected will serve until their
respective successors are elected and qualified. At each annual meeting of
stockholders, directors will be elected to succeed those in the class whose
terms then expire, each elected director to serve for a term expiring at the
third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders after such director's
election, and until the director's successor is elected and qualified. Thus,
only one class of the directors stand for re-election each year, requiring at
least two stockholders' meetings at which directors are elected to replace a
majority of the Board.
Filling of Board Vacancies; Removal. Any vacancy occurring in the Board of
Directors, including any vacancy created by an increase in the number of
directors, shall be filled for the unexpired term by the concurring vote of a
majority of the directors then in office, whether or not a quorum, and any
director so chosen shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the
class in which the new directorship was created or the vacancy occurred and
until such director's successor shall have been elected and qualified.
Directors may only be removed with cause by the affirmative vote of the
holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock then
entitled to vote at an election of directors.
Stockholder Action by Unanimous Written Consent. Any action required or
permitted to be taken by the stockholders must be effected at a duly called
annual or special meeting of such holders and may not be effected by any
consent in writing by such holders, unless such consent is unanimous.
Call of Special Meetings. Special meetings of stockholders may be called at
any time but only by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the
Chief Executive Officer, the President or stockholders possessing at least 25%
of the voting power of the issued and outstanding voting stock entitled to
vote generally in the election of directors.
By-laws Amendments. The stockholders may amend the By-laws by the
affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding
shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon. Directors may also
amend the By-laws by a two-thirds vote of the directors then in office.
Certificate Amendments. Except as set forth in the Certificate or as
otherwise specifically required by law, no amendment of any provision of the
Certificate shall be made unless such amendment has been first proposed
45
<PAGE>
by the Board of Directors upon the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of
the directors then in office and thereafter approved by the affirmative vote
of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of stock of
the Company entitled to vote thereon; provided, however, if such amendment is
to the provisions described above or the provisions in the Certificate
relating to the decrease in the authorized number of shares of Preferred
Stock, Board authority to issue Preferred Stock, the removal or decreasing of
the limitation on directors' liability or the amendment of the By-laws or
stockholder meeting matters, such amendment must be approved by the
affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding
shares of stock entitled to vote thereon.
Stockholder Nominations and Proposals. With certain exceptions, the By-laws
require that stockholders intending to present nominations for directors or
other business for consideration at a meeting of stockholders notify the
Company's Secretary by the later of 60 days before the date of the meeting and
15 days after the date notice of the meeting is mailed or public notice of the
meeting is given.
Certain Statutory Provisions. Section 203 of the DGCL provides, in general,
that a stockholder acquiring more than 15% of the outstanding voting shares of
a corporation subject to the statute (an "Interested Stockholder"), but less
than 85% of such shares, may not engage in certain "Business Combinations"
with the corporation for a period of three years subsequent to the date on
which the stockholder became an Interested Stockholder unless (i) before such
person became an Interested Stockholder, the corporation's board of directors
approved either the Business Combination or the transaction in which the
stockholder became an Interested Stockholder or (ii) the Business Combination
is approved by the corporation's board of directors and authorized by a vote
of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation not
owned by the Interested Stockholder.
Section 203 defines the term "Business Combination" to encompass a wide
variety of transactions with or caused by an Interested Stockholder in which
the Interested Stockholder receives or could receive a benefit on other than a
pro rata basis with other stockholders, including mergers, certain asset
sales, certain issuances of additional shares to the Interested Stockholder,
transactions with the corporation which increase the proportionate interest of
the Interested Stockholder or a transaction in which the Interested
Stockholder receives certain other benefits.
Pursuant to a Board resolution adopted at the time of formation of the
Company, the Section 203 limits do not apply to any "Business Combination"
between the Company and PGI.
REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
The Company has granted demand and incidental registration rights to PGI for
the registration of shares of Common Stock owned by PGI under the Securities
Act. Three demand registrations are permitted during the first five years
following the initial public offering of the Common Stock and one registration
per year each year thereafter until PGI owns less than 10% of the outstanding
Common Stock. The Company will pay the fees and expenses of the demand
registrations and the incidental registrations, while PGI will pay all
underwriting discounts and commissions. These registration rights are subject
to certain conditions and limitations, including the right of underwriters to
limit the number of shares owned by PGI included in such registration.
TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR
The transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock is LaSalle National
Trust, N.A.
46
<PAGE>
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Prior to the Offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock,
and no prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that market sales of
shares or the availability of such shares for sale will have on the market
price of the Common Stock prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial
amounts of Common Stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, could
adversely affect the prevailing market price of the Common Stock and the
ability of the Company to raise capital through a sale of its securities.
Upon completion of the Offering, the Company will have 7,500,000 shares of
Common Stock outstanding, (8,250,000 shares if the Underwriters' over-
allotment option is exercised in full). Of those shares, the 5,000,000 shares
sold in the Offering (5,750,000 shares if the Underwriters' over-allotment
option is exercised in full) will be freely tradeable without restriction
(except as to affiliates of the Company) or further registration under the
Securities Act. The remaining 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding
will be restricted securities ("Restricted Securities") within the meaning of
Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
In general, under Rule 144 under the Securities Act as currently in effect
(and subject to the recent amendments to Rule 144 described below), a person
(or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned Restricted
Securities for at least two years, and including the holding period of any
prior owner unless such prior owner is an affiliate, would be entitled to sell
within any three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed the
greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock or the average
weekly trading volume of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market during
the four calendar weeks preceding such sale. Sales under Rule 144 are also
subject to certain manner of sale provisions, notice requirements and the
availability of current public information about the Company. Any person (or
persons whose shares are aggregated) who is not deemed to have been an
affiliate of the Company at any time during the three months preceding a sale,
and who has beneficially owned shares for at least three years (including any
period of ownership of preceding non-affiliated holders), would be entitled to
sell such shares under Rule 144(k) without regard to the volume limitations,
manner of sale provisions, public information requirements or notice
requirements. An "affiliate" is a person that directly, or indirectly through
one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or under common
control with, such issuer. The Commission has adopted certain amendments to
Rule 144 and Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act that, when effective, will
reduce the requisite holding periods to one year and two years, respectively.
The amendment will become effective on April 21, 1997 and will have the effect
of accelerating the time at which Restricted Securities will be available for
resale under Rule 144 and Rule 144(k).
Rule 144A under the Securities Act as currently in effect generally permits
unlimited resales of certain restricted securities of any issuer provided that
the purchaser is a qualified institution that owns and invests on a
discretionary basis at least $100 million in securities (and, in the case of a
bank or savings and loan association, has a net worth of at least $25 million)
or is a registered broker-dealer that owns and invests on a discretionary
basis at least $10 million in securities. Rule 144A allows PGI to sell its
shares of Common Stock to such institutions and registered broker-dealers
without regard to any volume or other restrictions. There can be no assurance
that the availability of such resale exemption will not have an adverse effect
on the trading price of the Common Stock.
The Company, its directors and executive officers, certain of its key
employees and PGI have agreed not to offer to sell, sell, distribute, grant
any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any
shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into, or exercisable or
exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock owned by them prior to the expiration
of one year from the date of this Prospectus, except (i) with the prior
written consent of FBR, (ii) in the case of the Company, the grant of options
to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Company's Stock Incentive Plan
and (iii) for the sale of shares in the Offering. PGI may sell all 2,071,334
of its shares of Common Stock subject to the volume and other limitations of
Rule 144 after the expiration of the Rule 144 holding period.
PGI has the right to include its shares in any future registration of
securities effected by the Company under the Securities Act, subject to the
right of any underwriter in such offering requiring PGI to reduce the number
of
47
<PAGE>
shares PGI otherwise has the right to have included in such registration. If
the Company is required to register shares held by PGI pursuant to the
exercise of its registration rights, such sales may have an adverse effect on
the Company's stock price and its ability to raise needed capital. See "Risk
Factors--Shares Eligible for Future Sale," "Principal Stockholders" and
"Description of Capital Stock--Registration Rights Agreement."
The Company intends to file a registration statement under the Securities
Act registering the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance upon the
exercise of options granted under the Stock Incentive Plan. See "Management--
Stock Incentive Plan." This registration statement is expected to be filed
soon after the date of this Prospectus and will become effective automatically
upon filing. Accordingly, shares registered under such registration statement
will be available for sale in the open market, unless such shares are subject
to vesting restrictions with the Company and except to the extent that the
holders of such options are subject to the one year lock-up agreements
described above.

UNDERWRITING
Subject to the terms and certain conditions contained in the Underwriting

The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the several
Underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the shares of Common Stock
offered hereby are subject to approval of certain legal matters by counsel and
to certain other conditions. The Underwriters are obligated to take and pay
for all the shares of Common Stock offered hereby (other than the shares of
the Common Stock covered by the over-allotment option described below) if any
are taken.
Prior to the Offering, there has been no established trading market for the
shares of Common Stock. The initial price to the public for the shares of
Common Stock offered hereby has been determined by negotiation between the
Company and FBR. The factors considered in determining the initial price to
the public include the history of and the prospects for the industry in which
the Company competes, the past and present operations of the Company, the
historical results of operations of the Company, the prospects for future
earnings of the Company, the recent market prices of securities of generally
comparable companies and the general condition of the securities markets at
the time of the Offering.
The Underwriting Agreement contains covenants of indemnity among the
Underwriters and the Company against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act.
The Underwriters have advised the Company that they propose to offer the
shares of Common Stock to the public initially at the price to the public set
forth on the cover page of this Prospectus and to certain dealers (who may
include the Underwriters) at such price less a concession not to exceed $
per share. The Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, discounts
not in excess of $ per share to any other Underwriter and certain other
dealers.
The Company has granted to the Underwriters an option, exercisable for 30
days from the date of this Prospectus, to purchase up to an aggregate of
750,000 additional shares of Common Stock at the initial public offering price
less underwriting discounts and commissions, solely to cover over-allotments.
To the extent that the Underwriters exercise such option, each of the
Underwriters will be committed, subject to certain conditions, to purchase
approximately the same percentage of such additional shares as the number of
shares set forth opposite such Underwriter's name in the preceding table bears
to the total number of shares offered.
The Underwriters do not intend to confirm sales of shares of Common Stock to
any accounts over which they exercise discretionary authority.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Company, its directors and executive
officers, certain of its key employees and PGI have agreed not to offer, sell,
contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock or any
securities convertible or exchangeable into any shares of Common Stock prior
to the expiration of one year from the date of this Prospectus, without the
prior written consent of FBR. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale."

At the request of the Company, up to 100,000 shares of Common Stock offered
hereby have been reserved for sale to certain individuals, including directors
and employees of the Company and PGI and members of their families. The price
of such shares to such persons will be the initial public offering price set
forth on the cover page hereof less underwriting discounts and commissions.
The number of shares available to the general public will be reduced to the
extent those persons purchase reserved shares. Any shares not so purchased
will be offered hereby at the public offering price set forth on the cover of
this Prospectus.

(g) (Provision) benefit for income taxes:
The Original Facilities and the entities that operated
the Activelife Facilities, the Gables at Brighton
facility and Park Place Facilities prior to the
acquisition were not taxable entities. The
realization of the deferred gain on the sale of the
Hallmark as a reduction of lease expenses (see Note
c) is considered a permanent difference between book
income (loss) and tax income (loss) and is not
taxable. The difference has the following impact on
the Company's benefit for income tax at a 40% rate
(includes, federal and state statutory income tax
rates). This adjustment provides pro forma benefit
for income taxes at a 40% effective income tax rate.. $ 1,884

(h) Income (loss) before income taxes:
The income (loss) before income taxes presented in the
historical statements of operations of the Original
Facilities is before minority interest; the
Activelife Facilities is before gain on sale of
property and; the Gables at Brighton facility is
before gain on sale of property and represents income
(loss) from continuing operations. The minority
interest is not included due to the interest being
acquired in conjunction with the Formation and
Offering and the gains on sale of properties are not
included due to the non-recurring nature of the
transactions.
(i) Pro forma net loss per share is based upon the number
of common shares issued consisting of the 2,500
shares issued to PGI and management in exchange for
their interest in the Original Facilities plus the
issuance of all 5,000 shares in the initial offering

(j) The Company has entered a definitive purchase
agreement to acquire the Park Place Facilities

consummate the acquisition of the Park Place facility
within 30 to 60 days from the closing of the
Offering, there can be no assurance that the
conditions to closing such acquisition will be
satisfied in a timely manner, if at all. If such
facility is not acquired by the Company, pro forma as
adjusted total revenue, operating income and net loss
would be $39,262, $3,411 and $732, respectively, for
the year ended December 31, 1996. See "Risk Factors--

NOTES TO BALANCE SHEET
DECEMBER 31, 1996
1. ORGANIZATION
Brookdale Living Communities, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in
Delaware under the Delaware General Corporation Law on September 4, 1996. The
Company was formed in order to consolidate and expand the Original Facilities
and BLC Property, Inc. owned by The Prime Group, Inc. and its affiliates
("PGI"). In connection with a proposed public offering (the "Offering") more
fully described elsewhere in this Registration Statement and Prospectus, the
Company will sell shares of its common stock to the public and PGI will
contribute its interests in The Original Facilities and BLC Property, Inc. in
exchange for 2.5 million shares of common stock of the Company.
2. DEFERRED COSTS
As of December 31, 1996, PGI has incurred approximately $2,580,000 of legal,
accounting and related costs on behalf of the Company in connection with the
Offering which have been presented as deferred offering costs on the balance
sheet. These costs, in addition to offering costs incurred after December 31,
1996 through the date the Offering, will be deducted from the gross proceeds
of the Offering.
3. USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the balance sheet in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect amounts reported in the balance sheet and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors of
Brookdale Living Communities, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of the Original
Facilities as of December 31, 1995 and 1996 and the related combined
statements of operations, changes in partners' capital (deficit) and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Original Facilities'
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the combined financial position of the Original
Facilities at December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the combined results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Original Facilities represent a combination of three partnerships
described below ("Partnerships") that own, operate, and manage assisted living
facilities ("Properties") in the greater Chicagoland area. The Properties are
under common management and ownership of The Prime Group, Inc. and its
affiliates ("PGI") as either the managing general partner (responsible for the
operations of the Properties) or 100% owner. Two of the Properties have a
third party owner ("Third Party"), whose ownership interests have been
reflected as a minority interest in the combined financial statements.
Pursuant to the formation transactions more fully described elsewhere in this
Registration Statement and Prospectus, the Original Facilities will be
operated (owned or leased) by a newly formed corporation, Brookdale Living
Communities, Inc. (the "Company"), whose shares are being registered pursuant
to this Registration Statement.
The Partnerships and Properties owned and operated by the Original
Facilities are as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
PARTNERSHIP PROPERTY
<S> <C>
The Ponds of Pembroke Limited Partnership The Devonshire
River Oaks Partners The Heritage
Hallmark Partners, L.P. The Hallmark
</TABLE>
Included in the combined financial statements are the operations of The
Devonshire (Partnership ownership-PGI: 25% managing general partner interest,
Third Party: 50% general partner interest and 25% limited partner interest)
and The Heritage (Partnership ownership-PGI: 50% managing general partner
interest and Third Party: 50% general partner interest) and the operations of
the Hallmark from June 1, 1994 (The Hallmark facility was purchased by
Hallmark Partners, L.P., a newly formed partnership 100% owned by PGI, on June
1, 1994 for $41.6 million. On an unaudited pro-forma basis for the year ended
December 31, 1994 combined revenue would have increased by approximately $2.6
million and combined net loss would have increased by approximately $1.0
million in the combined statements of operations had the Hallmark been owned
by PGI since January 1, 1994).
On December 27, 1996 The Hallmark was sold by Hallmark Partners, L.P. (HP)
to Health and Retirement Properties Trust (HRPT) which then leased The
Hallmark to BLC Property, Inc. (BLC), an affiliate of PGI, which subleased the
property back to HP (see Note 7), in a sale-leaseback transaction. HP received
net proceeds from the sale of $58.5 million, resulting in a gain of $18.5
million net of a prepayment fee of $2.8 million and the writeoff of deferred
financing fees of $579,601. The above gain is deferred and is being amortized
using the straight-line method over the life of the sublease.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated
in combination.
RESIDENT FEE REVENUE
Resident fee revenue is recorded when services are rendered and consist of
fees for basic housing, support services and fees associated with additional
services such as personalized health and assisted living care.
REAL ESTATE
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets
to Be Disposed Of," under which the Partnerships would be required to
recognize impairment losses for the Properties when indicators of impairment
are present and the Properties' expected undiscounted cash flows are not
sufficient to recover the Properties' carrying value. The Partnerships adopted
Statement No. 121 effective January 1, 1995 with no impact on the accompanying
combined financial statements.
Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations
as incurred. Significant renovations and improvements which improve and/or
extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their
estimated useful life. Interest and other direct costs incurred during
construction periods are capitalized as a component of the building cost.
F-21
<PAGE>
ORIGINAL FACILITIES
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of assets, which are as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Buildings..................... 40 years
Building improvements and
furniture fixtures........... 3-12 years
</TABLE>
DEFERRED COSTS
Deferred financing costs are amortized using the straight-line method over
the term of the mortgage notes and bonds. Deferred lease costs are amortized
using the straight-line method over the term of the sublease. Deferred
marketing costs, consisting primarily of the costs of the marketing
facilities, were amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated
lease up period of 22 months through June 1995 when they were fully amortized.
INCOME TAXES
The Partnerships pay no income taxes and the income or loss from the
Partnerships is includable on the respective federal income tax returns of the
partners.
The Partnerships net basis of real estate assets as reported in the
financial statements at December 31, 1996 exceeds the basis used for federal
income tax purposes by approximately $2.2 million due to the use of
accelerated depreciation methods for federal income tax purposes.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the combined financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the combined financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
PRO FORMA PRESENTATION (UNAUDITED)
The pro forma net income per share for the year ended December 31, 1996 was
determined based upon 2.5 million shares of common stock issued by the Company
to PGI in exchange for its ownership in the Original Facilities.
The pro forma (provision) benefit for income taxes for the Original
Facilities is based on the historical combined financial data of the Original
Facilities as if the entities comprising the Original Facilities had operated
as taxable corporations for all periods presented and is recorded at the
federal and state statutory rates in effect during the period (40%).
2. CASH--RESTRICTED
The Heritage and The Hallmark have Life Care Escrow deposits required under
the Illinois Life Care Facility Act Section 7(b) which will be funded from
time to time in accordance with a schedule provided by the Illinois Department
of Public Health. The amount on deposit at December 31, 1995 and 1996 was
$652,503 and $1,088,797, respectively.
In accordance with the mortgage note payable described in Note 5, The
Hallmark was required to maintain escrow deposits for real estate taxes,
repairs, and other operating activities. The total of all escrow accounts at
December 31, 1995 was $1,080,351.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 148(f), The Heritage was required
to rebate to the United States government any interest earnings in excess of
the interest cost of the Bond proceeds not yet used for Project costs. During
1995, the Partnership paid $806,418 from unused restricted Bond proceeds to the
United States government as a final settlement of its arbitrage rebate payable.
No amounts were paid in 1994 or 1996.

(A) The mortgage note payable was collateralized by The Hallmark's real estate.
(B) On December 27, 1996, The Hallmark was sold and a portion of the proceeds
were used to repay the mortgage note payable. In addition, The Hallmark was
required to pay a prepayment fee of $2,722,679 which has been included as a
reduction in calculating the gain on sale of property. The Hallmark repaid
a previous note payable on December 18, 1995 from proceeds of the above
mentioned mortgage note payable which resulted in an extraordinary gain of
$3,274,207 in 1995.
(C) Permanent financing for the development for The Devonshire and The Heritage
has been provided by $65,000,000 (The Devonshire--$33,000,000; The
Heritage--$32,000,000) of tax-exempt Qualified Residential Rental Bonds
(the "Bonds"). The Bonds mature on December 15, 2019 and December 15, 2025.
Under the terms of the bond loan agreement, The Devonshire and The Heritage
are to make interest-only payments monthly, calculated using a floating
rate determined by the Remarketing Agent of the Bonds. The rates ranged
from 1.65% to 5.50% during 1994, 2.55% to 5.20% during 1995 and 2.30% to
4.40% during 1996. The rates at December 31, 1995 were 5.05% and 5.20%, and
December 31, 1996 were 4.00% and 4.10%.
The maximum annual interest rate on the Bonds is 15%. Under certain
conditions, the interest rate on the Bonds may be converted to a fixed rate
at the request of the respective Partnership.
F-23
<PAGE>
ORIGINAL FACILITIES
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
The Bonds are collateralized by irrevocable letters of credit issued by
various banks in the aggregate amount of $66,714,699 (the "Letters of
Credit") that expire December, 1997 and December, 1998. A Letter of Credit
fee of .5% per annum of the stated amount of the Letters of Credit is due
quarterly in advance. The Letters of Credit with the various banks are
collateralized by separate Standby Purchase Agreements entered into with
the Third Party to reimburse the banks for any funds drawn on the Letters
of Credit. The Letters of Credit and Standby Purchase Agreements are
collateralized by mortgages on The Devonshire and The Heritage. The due
dates of the bonds would be accelerated upon the expiration of the Letters
of Credit and Standby Purchase Agreements unless they are extended or
replaced. However, The Devonshire and The Heritage have entered into
separate Standby Bond Purchase and Indemnity Agreements (the "Agreements")
with the Third Party pursuant to which the Third Party agrees to provide
standby credit enhancement to issuers of replacement Letters of Credit or,
if replacement Letters of Credit are not obtained, to buy the bonds. The
Agreements expire on March 22, 1998. If the Third Party buys the bonds
pursuant to the Agreements, The Devonshire and The Heritage would be
required to buy the bonds from the Third Party on March 22, 1998. PGI has
provided the Third Party with certain collateral totaling $2,220,000 to
secure the obligations of The Devonshire under the Agreements with the
Third Party. The Partnerships incurred financing fees of $743,002, $877,500
and $581,441 during the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996
respectively.
Each bondholder may tender bonds on any business day and receive a price
equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest through the
tender date. Upon tender, the Remarketing Agent shall immediately remarket
the Bonds on a best-efforts basis. In the event the Remarketing Agent fails
to remarket any bonds, the partnerships are obligated to purchase those
bonds, for which they may draw on the Letters of Credit.
Included in interest expense for the year ended December 31, 1994 is
$117,318 of interest expense related to a $2,510,081 note payable to an
affiliate that was repaid in 1994. The note payable bore interest at 10% per
annum.
Interest expense is stated net of interest income of $155,608, $118,642 and
$113,696 for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively.
Total interest paid on the mortgage note payable and bonds payable was
$2,633,635, $6,306,039 and $4,761,857 for the years ended December 31, 1994,
1995, and 1996, respectively.
5. TAX INCREMENTAL FINANCING
The Heritage is located in a redevelopment area designated by a local
municipality as a tax incremental financing district ("TIF"). Under the terms
of the redevelopment agreement, The Heritage is eligible to receive up to
$1,136,889 for all eligible development costs, as defined through a Tax
Incremental Financing Bond ("Bond"). The Bond matures on December 1, 2007 and
bears interest at 10%, with principal and interest payable annually on each
December 1. The Bond is subject to optional redemption in whole, or in part,
at any time, at a redemption price equal to the principal outstanding at the
date redeemed. The Bond is subject to mandatory redemption, in part, by the
application of annual sinking fund installments by the municipality on each
December 1 thereafter, at a redemption price equal to the principal
outstanding at the date redeemed. The Bond is payable solely from real estate
tax incremental revenues and certain sales tax receipts generated in the TIF.
Payments are to be made to the extent of available TIF revenues. The
insufficiency of TIF revenues generated in the redevelopment area for any
given year shall not be considered a default in payment, but all past due
amounts shall be a continuing obligation payable from future TIF revenues. Any
unpaid amounts including interest, at maturity, will be forgiven. As the
collectibility of the bond principal and interest is dependent upon sufficient
revenues being generated in the redevelopment area, revenue is recognized by
The Heritage when principal and
F-24

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
interest are received. For the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995, and 1996,
The Heritage received principal and interest payments totaling $144,389,
$144,089 and $610,804, respectively.
6. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN
In August 1994, PGI established 401(k) plans for all employees that meet
minimum employment criteria. The plans provide that the participants may defer
up to 15% of their eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis subject to certain
maximum amounts. The Partnerships will contribute an additional 25% of the
employee's contribution to the plan, up to $500 per employee per annum.
Employees are always 100% vested in their own contributions and vested in
Partnerships contributions over five years. The Partnership made contributions
in the amount of $33,456, $16,480 and $29,782 for the years ended December 31,
1994, 1995 and 1996 respectively. Such amounts are included in facility
operating expense in the combined statements of operations.
7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In connection with the organization of the Partnerships and the development
and financing of the Properties, PGI and an affiliate are entitled to payments
and fees for various services provided. Such amounts incurred for the years
ended December 31, 1994, 1995, and 1996 are summarized as follows:

achieving certain leasing levels, as defined. The fee is included in
property management and other fees-affiliate expense in the combined
statements of operation.
Amounts due to affiliates are for amounts due for advances made by
affiliates. Amounts due from affiliates are for advances made by the
Partnerships to affiliates. Amounts due from and due to affiliates are non-

In 1996, The Devonshire and The Heritage made advances to PGI in the amount
of $4,531,627 which PGI used as an escrow deposit to acquire The Third Party's
interest in the two partnerships pursuant to the formation transactions more
fully described elsewhere in this Registration Statement and Prospectus. The
advances are non-interest bearing and have been reflected as an increase in
partners' deficit in the combined financial statements.
F-25

ORIGINAL FACILITIES
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
In conjunction with the sale of the Hallmark (see Note 1) BLC leased The
Hallmark from the third party and then subleased (Sublease Agreement) the
property to Hallmark Partners, L.P. The Sublease Agreement has an initial term
of 23 years with options to extend the term for two consecutive 25-year terms,
and requires monthly lease payments ranging from $490,834 to $568,334 over the
life of the sublease. Future minimum annual rental expense to be recorded over
the life of the Sublease Agreement is $5,933,301 (Gross expense of $6,739,136
less amortization of deferred gain on sale of property of $805,835). During
1996, the Partnerships recorded $74,875 of rental expense (included in
facility operating expense in the combined statements of operations) related
to the Sublease Agreement.
8. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Cash, cash-restricted and variable rate and fixed rate mortgage notes
payable are reflected in the accompanying combined balance sheets at amounts
considered by management to reasonably approximate fair value. Management
estimates the fair value of its long-term fixed rate notes payable generally
using discounted cash flow analysis based upon the Original Facilities'
current borrowing rate for debt with similar maturities.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors of
Brookdale Living Communities, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of the Activelife
Facilities as of December 31, 1995 and 1996 and the related combined
statements of operations, changes in partners' deficit and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Activelife Facilities' management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the combined financial position of the Activelife
Facilities at December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the combined results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Activelife Facilities ("Activelife") represents a combination of three
partnerships described below ("Partnerships") that own, operate, and manage
assisted living facilities ("Properties"). The Properties are under the common
management of Activelife Management Corporation ("AMC"). Certain principals of
AMC also have ownership interests in the Partnerships. Pursuant to the
formation transactions more fully described elsewhere in this Registration
Statement and Prospectus, the Activelife Facilities will be operated (owned or
leased) by a newly formed corporation Brookdale Living Communities, Inc. (the
"Company"), whose shares are being registered pursuant to this Registration
Statement.
The Partnerships and Properties owned and operated by AMC are as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
PARTNERSHIP PROPERTY LOCATION
<S> <C> <C>
East Mesa Senior Living Limited Part-
nership Springs of East Mesa Mesa, Arizona
Edina Park Place Associates Limited
Partnership Edina Park Plaza Edina, Minnesota
Hawthorn Lakes Associates Limited Part-
nership Hawthorn Lakes Vernon Hills, Illinois
</TABLE>
The Partnerships maintain their books and records on the basis of accounting
used for federal income tax purposes. The differences between federal income
tax basis and generally accepted accounting principles affecting the
Partnerships relate to differences in the basis of real estate assets and the
use of accelerated depreciation methods with shorter depreciable lives used
for federal income tax basis, resulting in the net book value of real estate
assets at December 31, 1996 being approximately $15.1 million lower for
federal income tax basis.
On December 27, 1996 the Springs of East Mesa was sold by East Mesa Senior
Living Limited Partnership to a third party for net proceeds of $13.8 million,
resulting in a gain of $7.4 million net of the writeoff of deferred financing
fees of $170,650. A portion of the proceeds were used to repay the mortgage
note payable on the Springs of East Mesa.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated
in combination.
RESIDENT FEES REVENUE
Resident fees revenue is recorded when services are rendered and consist of
fees for basic housing, support services and fees associated with additional
services such as personalized health and assisted living care.
REAL ESTATE
At December 31, 1995, the Properties were carried at cost which was not in
excess of net realizable value as determined by management. In March 1995, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 121, "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,"
under which the Partnerships would be required to recognize impairment losses
for the Properties when indicators of impairment are present and the
Properties' expected undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the
Properties' carrying value. The Partnerships adopted Statement No. 121
effective January 1, 1996 with no impact on the accompanying combined
financial statements.
Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations
as incurred. Significant renovations and improvements which improve and/or
extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their
estimated useful life.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of assets, which are as follows:

Buildings...................................................... 40 years
Building improvements and furniture and equipment.............. 5-10 years
</TABLE>

<PAGE>
ACTIVELIFE FACILITIES
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Partnerships consider all cash accounts and money market funds and
certificates of deposit with an original maturity of three months or less when
purchased to be cash and cash equivalents.
DEFERRED FINANCING FEES
Deferred financing fees are amortized using the straight-line method over
the term of the mortgage notes payable.
INCOME TAXES
The Partnerships pay no income taxes and the income or loss from the
Partnerships is includable on the respective federal income tax returns of the
partners.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the combined financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the combined financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
2. CASH--RESTRICTED
In accordance with mortgage note payable agreements described in Note 3, the
Partnerships are required to maintain escrow deposits for real estate taxes,
repairs, and other operating activities.

increment financing) between the HRA and the Partnership provides that the
HRA will make loans upon request of the Partnership in monthly
installments to the Partnership totaling $170,000 each year for a period
of 20 years, commencing in 1987, for the payment of interest on the
mortgage note payable issued by HRA. The loan bears interest at the
greater of 12-1/2% simple interest per annum or the statutory minimum, as
defined, and shall be payable

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Gables at Brighton Associates (the "Partnership") is a general partnership
that owned, operated, and managed an assisted living facility known as The
Gables at Brighton ("Property") located in Rochester, New York. On December
27, 1996 the Property was sold by the Partnership to a third party for net
proceeds of $10.4 million, resulting in a gain of $4.9 million. As of December
31, 1996 the proceeds from the sale have been distributed to the partners and
the Partnership has no assets or liabilities at that date.
RESIDENT FEE REVENUE
Resident fee revenue was recorded when services were rendered and consisted
of fees for basic housing, support services and fees associated with
additional services such as personalized health and assisted living care.
REAL ESTATE
Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs were expensed to
operations as incurred. Significant renovations and improvements which improve
and/or extend the useful life of the asset were capitalized and depreciated
over their estimated useful life. Interest incurred during construction
periods was capitalized as a component of the building cost.
Depreciation was calculated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of assets, which were as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Building and improvements.. 20-27.5 years
Furniture and equipment.... 5-7 years
</TABLE>
INCOME TAXES
The Partnership pays no income taxes and the income or loss from the
Partnership is includable on the respective federal income tax returns of the
partners.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In connection with the operation of the Property, an affiliate of one of the
partners was entitled to management fees equal to 2.5% of resident fees and 5%
of cash flows, as defined. Amounts due to affiliate are for amounts due for
the above fees and are non-interest bearing and payable upon demand.

PARK PLACE FACILITIES
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Park Place Facilities ("Park Place") represents a combination of a
general partnership and a limited liability corporation described below
("Ownership Entities") that own, operate, and manage assisted living
facilities ("Properties"). The Properties are under the common management of
Senior Living Management Services ("SLM"). A principal of SLM also has
ownership interests in the Ownership Entities. Pursuant to the formation
transactions more fully described elsewhere in this Registration Statement and
Prospectus, the Park Place Facilities will be owned and operated by a newly
formed corporation Brookdale Living Communities, Inc. (the "Company"), whose
shares are being registered pursuant to this Registration Statement.
The Ownership Entities and Properties owned and operated by SLM are as
follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
PARTNERSHIP PROPERTY LOCATION
<S> <C> <C>
Park Place General Partnership Park Place Phase I Spokane, Washington
Park Place II, LLC Park Place Phase II Spokane, Washington
</TABLE>
The combined financial statements include the operations of Park Place Phase
I from January 1, 1995 and Park Place Phase II from February 1996 (facility
commenced operations--special care facility in February 1996 and assisted
living facility in May 1996). All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in combination.
RESIDENT FEES REVENUE
Resident fees revenue is recorded when services are rendered and consist of
fees for basic housing, support services and fees associated with additional
services such as personalized health and assisted living care.
REAL ESTATE
At December 31, 1995, the Properties were carried at cost which was not in
excess of net realizable value as determined by management. In March 1995, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 121, "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,"
under which the Partnerships would be required to recognize impairment losses
for the Properties when indicators of impairment are present and the
Properties' expected undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the
Properties' carrying value. The Partnerships adopted Statement No. 121
effective January 1, 1996 with no impact on the accompanying combined
financial statements.
Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations
as incurred. Significant renovations and improvements which improve and/or
extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their
estimated useful life. Interest and other direct costs incurred during
construction periods are capitalized as a component of building cost.
Depreciation is calculated using straight-line and accelerated methods over
the estimated useful lives of assets, which are as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Buildings and improvements.................................. 27.5-39 years
Furniture and equipment..................................... 5-7 years
</TABLE>
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Ownership Entities consider all cash accounts and money market funds and
certificates of deposit with an original maturity of three months or less when
purchased to be cash and cash equivalents.
F-46
<PAGE>
PARK PLACE FACILITIES
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
DEFERRED FINANCING FEES
Deferred financing fees are amortized using the straight-line method over
the term of the mortgage notes payable.
INCOME TAXES
The Ownership Entities pay no income taxes and the income or loss from the
Ownership Entities is includable on the respective federal income tax returns
of the partners/members.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the combined financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the combined financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
2. CASH--RESTRICTED
In accordance with mortgage note payable agreements described in Note 3, the
Ownership Entities are required to maintain escrow deposits for real estate
taxes, repairs, and other operating activities.

occupancy over 95%.
(b) Certain ownership members of the Park Place II, LLC received development
fees of $550,000 related to the development and financing of Park Place
Phase II. These fees were capitalized as a component of real estate costs.
5. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Cash and cash equivalents, cash-restricted, fixed and variable rate mortgage
notes payable and other variable rate notes payable are reflected in the
accompanying combined balance sheets at amounts considered by management to
reasonably approximate fair value. Management estimates the fair value of its
long-term fixed rate notes payable generally using discounted cash flow
analysis based upon SLM's current borrowing rate for debt with similar
maturities.

proceeding in which they or any of them were or are made parties or are
threatened to be made parties by reason of their serving or having served in
such capacity. Section 145 provides, however, that such person must have acted
in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in (or not
opposed to) the best interests of the corporation, and, in the case of a
criminal action, such person must have had no reasonable cause to believe his
or her conduct was unlawful. In addition, Section 145 does not permit
indemnification in an action or suit by or in the right of the corporation,
where such person has been adjudged liable to the corporation, unless, and
only to the extent that, a court determines that such person fairly and
reasonably is entitled to indemnity for expenses the court deems proper in
light of liability adjudication. Indemnity is mandatory to the extent a claim,
issue or matter has been successfully defended.
The Company's Amended and Restated By-laws (the "By-laws") provide for
mandatory indemnification of directors and officers generally to the same
extent authorized by Section 145. Under the By-laws, the Company shall advance
expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending any such action if
the director or officer undertakes to repay such amount if it is determined
that he or she is not entitled to indemnification.
The Company maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance.
The Company also intends to enter into indemnification agreements with each
of the Company's directors and certain of its officers. The indemnification
agreements will require, among other things, that the Company indemnify such
directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law, and advance to
such directors and officers all related expenses, subject to reimbursement if
it is subsequently determined that indemnification is not permitted. The
Company also must indemnify and advance all expenses incurred by such
directors and officers seeking to enforce their rights under the
indemnification agreements and cover such directors and officers under the
Company's directors' and officers' liability insurance.

The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the
Company's directors will not be personally liable to the Company or its
stockholders for monetary damages resulting from breaches of their fiduciary
duty as directors, except (a) for any breach of the directors' duty of loyalty
to the Company or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not in good
faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
(c) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware,
which makes directors liable for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful
stock repurchases or redemptions, or (d) for transactions from which directors
derive improper personal benefit.
The Underwriting Agreement provides for indemnification by the Underwriters
of the directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act"), under certain circumstances.
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the Underwriters
at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriters to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company
has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned Company hereby further undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form
of prospectus filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or
497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Attention: Robert J. Korslin
Re: First Amendment to September 17, 1996
Senior Housing Portfolio Letter Agreement
-----------------------------------------
Dear Bob:
Reference is hereby made to that certain letter agreement (the "Original
Agreement"), dated September 17, 1996, between The Prime Group, Inc., on the one
hand, and KILICO Realty Corporation and Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company,
on the other hand. This letter (this "First Amendment") amends the Original
Agreement. All capitalized terms used in this First Amendment which are not
specifically defined in this First Amendment, but which are defined in the
Original Agreement, shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Original
Agreement.
The Original Agreement provides for the purchase by Prime from Kemper, and
the sale by Kemper to Prime, of the Kemper Senior Housing Interests in
accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the
Original Agreement. The parties hereto hereby agree to amend the Original
Agreement as follow:
1. The parties hereto hereby agree and acknowledge that, as of the date
hereof, Earnest Money in the aggregate amount of Four Million Five Hundred
Thirty-One Thousand Five Hundred Ninety-Five and no/100 Dollars ($4,531,595.00)
has been deposited with Kemper in accordance with Paragraph 3 of the Original
Agreement (the "Original Deposit"). The parties hereto hereby agree that, from
and after the date of this Amendment, except as
<PAGE>
KILICO Realty Corporation and
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company

December 20, 1996
provided in paragraph 9(b) of the Original Agreement, as amended by this First
Amendment: Kemper shall be the sole owner of the Original Deposit free and clear
of any claim or interest of Prime; the Original Deposit shall not be considered
or treated as Earnest Money for any purpose under the Original Agreement; and
the Original Deposit shall not be refundable to Prime for any reason; provided,
however, that, at the Closing, the Original Deposit shall be credited against
the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of paragraph
3 of the Original Agreement shall remain in force and obligate Prime to deposit
with Kemper as Earnest Money under the Original Agreement, commencing on January
2, 1997 and continuing on the first business day of each succeeding month until
Closing, the Net Cash Flow generated by Ponds L.P. and ROP during the preceding
month.
2. Paragraph 4 of the Original Agreement is hereby amended by adding
the following at the end thereof:
"Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the option of Prime (the
"Extension Option"), which Extension Option must be exercised,
if at all, by Prime by the delivery of written notice to Kemper
of such exercise on or before December 20, 1996, the December
30, 1996 date set forth in the immediately preceding sentence
shall be changed to April 11, 1997 (provided that the Closing
Date may not be any date between March 15, 1997 and March 31,
1997, inclusive). In the event Prime exercises the Extension
Option, (a) the Purchase Price shall be increased to an amount
equal to the sum of Five Million One Hundred Fifty-Eight and
no/100 Dollars ($5,158,000.00) plus (i) Two Thousand and no/100
Dollars ($2,000.00) per day for each day after December 30, 1996
to and including the earlier of January 31, 1997 or the Closing
Date, plus (ii) if the Closing Date has not occurred on or
before January 31, 1997, Three Thousand and no/100 Dollars
($3,000.00) per day from February 1, 1997 to and including the
earlier of February 28, 1997 or the Closing Date, plus (iii) if
the Closing Date has not occurred on or before February 28,
1997, Four Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($4,000.00) per day from
March 1, 1997 to and including the earliest of (x) March 31,
1997, (y) the Closing Date (other than between March 15, 1997
and March 31, 1997, inclusive), or (z) the IPO Closing Date if
the IPO Closing Date occurs between March 15, 1997 and March 31,
1997, inclusive, in which event the Closing hereunder shall not
occur on the IPO Closing Date, but the parties shall deposit in
escrow on the IPO Closing Date such documents as may be
reasonably required to assure consummation of the Closing in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and (b) the
written notice described in the first sentence of this paragraph
4 must be given, if at all, no later than March 31, 1997.
Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, in the
event Prime has exercised the Extension Option and the Closing
occurs

December 20, 1996
on or before December 31, 1996, the Purchase Price shall be Four

($4,908,000.00). For purposes hereof, the "IPO Closing Date" shall
mean the date of consummation of the initial public offering of the
entity that is contemplated to acquire the Kemper Senior Housing
Interests or to operate the Devonshire and the Heritage, which entity
is now known as Brookdale Living Communities, Inc."
3. Kemper hereby reaffirms and reiterates, as of the date of this
Amendment, all of the representations and warranties made by Kemper in paragraph
6 of the Original Agreement. Prime hereby reaffirms and reiterates, as of the
date of this Amendment, all of the representations and warranties made by Prime
in paragraph 7 of the Original Agreement.
4. Paragraph 9(b) of the Original Agreement is hereby amended by adding
the following after the words "specific performance" in the last line thereof:
"; provided, however, for purposes of this paragraph 9(b), the Earnest
Money shall only include (i) a portion of the Original Deposit in the
amount of Two Million Six Hundred Sixty-Five Thousand Nine Hundred
Twenty-Two and no/100 Dollars ($2,665,922.00), and (ii) that portion
of the Earnest Money deposited with Kemper from and after January 2,
1997 that is attributable to Prime's respective percentage interests
in distributions of Ponds L.P. and ROP based on current ownership
interests."
5. Expect as amended or modified by this First Amendment, the terms and
provisions of the Original Agreement shall remain and continue in full force and
effect. All references to the Agreement shall refer to the Original Agreement as
amended by this First Amendment. All references to the Sale Agreement in that
certain letter, dated September 17, 1996, delivered by ROP and Ponds L.P. to
Realty and KILICO in accordance with Paragraph 10 of the Original Agreement,
which letter was confirmed by Realty and KILICO and consented to by PGI, shall
mean the Original Agreement as amended by this First Amendment.
6. This First Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each
of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all
of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute one and the same
document with the same force and effect as if the signatures of all of the
parties were on a single counterpart.

covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement,
instrument, certificate or other document between Seller and Buyer, or from
Seller to Buyer, delivered pursuant to this Agreement, and such breach is not
cured within fifteen (15) days after written notice from Buyer to Seller of such
breach, or if a "Seller Default" has occurred under the the PPII Agreement (in
any case, a "Seller Default"), and such Seller Default is not caused by a Buyer
Default, Buyer may as its sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement, at law
and in equity, (1) cancel this Agreement and receive the prompt return of the
Earnest Money, and collect monetary damages from Seller in an amount equal to
One Hundred Thirteen Thousand Two Hundred Forty Dollars and 41/100 ($113,240.41)

in clause (2) above, Buyer shall have the right, at any time prior to the time
the Assets are actually conveyed to Buyer, to change such election and instead
proceed under clause (1) above. Such change in election by Buyer shall not make
Seller a "prevailing party" under Section 15.09 above in connection with any
litigation or other proceeding relating to specific performance, but the court
shall instead look to whether Buyer is ultimately the prevailing party in
enforcing its rights under clause (1) above.
17.02 If Buyer should breach any of its representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement,
instrument, certificate or other document between Seller and Buyer, or from

cured within fifteen (15) days after a written notice from Seller to Buyer of
such failure or if a "Buyer Default" has occurred under the PPG Agreement (in
any case a "Buyer Default"), and such Buyer Default is not caused by a Seller
Default, Seller, as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement, at
law and in equity, may upon written notice to Buyer, terminate this Agreement
and receive the Earnest Money, as full and final liquidated damages (except as
otherwise provided in Section 15.09 above), Buyer and Seller hereby
acknowledging that, in the event of Buyer's failure to consummate the sale
contemplated hereby, actual damages suffered by Seller would be difficult and/or
inconvenient to determine or ascertain; and, thereafter, there shall be no
further liability hereunder on the part of either party or the other party.

warrants and covenants to Seller that on the date hereof and on the date of
Closing:

and in good standing under the laws of the state of Delaware, has received all
necessary approval and authority to own its property and to carry on its
business as is now owned and operated by it. Buyer has the requisite corporate
authority to carry on business in the State of Washington.

obtain prior to Closing all licenses and permits necessary to own and operate
the Assets and carry on the acquired business of the Park Place Retirement
Community. Buyer shall timely make (within five (5) Business Days after the
date this Agreement is fully executed and a copy has been delivered to both
parties) and diligently proceed in good faith to complete all applications
necessary to operate Park Place Retirement Community, including without
limitations the transfer of the Department of Health Boarding Home License from
Seller to Buyer. Provided Buyer has timely made such application and diligently
pursued such permit or license, a failure of the State of Washington or any
applicable agency of the State of Washington to issue and/or transfer all such
licenses and permits shall not be a Purchaser Default under this Agreement.
(4) Payment of Liabilities Assumed. Buyer shall pay and discharge all the
liabilities and obligations of Seller assumed by Buyer hereunder to include,
without limitation, the Leases and Contracts listed in Exhibits "2.05(A)" and
"2.05(B)," when and as the same shall become due and payable or dischargeable.

to pay any and all Washington state sales and use taxes, arising by virtue of
the sale of the Assets by Seller to Buyer.

business and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, such tangible
property is in a condition, as of the date of such inspection by Buyer,
acceptable to Buyer.
(7) Broker Fees. Buyer has not used the services of any broker or finder
in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, except for the referral
fee to Gulf/Atlantic Valuation referred to in Section 3.02. If any such fees or
commissions are claimed or payable as a result of Buyer's claimed action or
inaction, such shall be Buyer's sole responsibility. Buyer shall indemnify,
defend, and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all losses, damages,
costs and claims suffered or incurred by Seller as a result or by reason of any
claim by any person or entity having dealt with Buyer for any brokerage
commission or finder's or referral fee except as provided herein.
(8) No Litigation. To the best of Buyer's knowledge there are no suits,
claims or actions, whether legal, administrative, arbitration or other
proceeding, or governmental investigations pending, or to Buyer's knowledge
threatened, as of February 18, 1997, which if determined adversely to Buyer
would in Buyer's estimation result in a judgment against Buyer in excess of
$100,000.00.
(9) Solvency. As of the date of this Agreement Buyer's assets at a fair
valuation exceed the amount of all of Buyer's debts at a fair valuation, and
Buyer is able to pay all of its debts (including trade debts and contingent
liabilities) as they become due, and that no transaction contemplated hereby
shall constitute preferential or fraudulent transfers within the meaning of 11
U.S.C. (S)(S) 547 or 548 and under (S)(S) 19.40 and 23.72 of the Revised Code of

<PAGE>
17.01 If Seller should breach any of its representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement,
instrument, certificate or other document between Seller and Buyer, or from
Seller to Buyer, delivered pursuant to this Agreement, and such breach is not
cured within fifteen (15) days after written notice from Buyer to Seller of such
breach, or if a "Seller Default" has occurred under the the PPGP Agreement (in
any case, a "Seller Default"), and such Seller Default is not caused by a Buyer
Default, Buyer may as its sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement, at law
and in equity, (1) cancel this Agreement and receive the prompt return of the
Earnest Money, and collect monetary damages from Seller in an amount equal to
One Hundred Thirty Six Thousand Seven Hundred and Fifty Nine Dollars and 59/100
($136,759.59) as full and final liquidated damages (except as otherwise provided
in Section 15.09 above), Buyer and Seller hereby acknowledging that, in the
event of Sellers failure to consummate the sale contemplated hereby, actual
damages suffered by Buyer would be difficult and/or inconvenient to determine or
ascertain; or (2) enforce specific performance of this Agreement. In the event
that Buyer elects to enforce specific performance of this Agreement as provided
in clause (2) above, Buyer shall have the right, at any time prior to the time
the Assets are actually conveyed to Buyer, to change such election and instead
proceed under clause (1) above. Such change in election by Buyer shall not make
Seller a "prevailing party" under Section 15.09 above in connection with any
litigation or other proceeding relating to specific performance, but the court
shall instead look to whether Buyer is ultimately the prevailing party in
enforcing its rights under clause (1) above.
17.02 If Buyer should breach any of its representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement,
instrument, certificate or other document between Seller and Buyer, or from
Buyer to Seller, delivered pursuant to this Agreement, and such failure is not
cured within fifteen (15) days after a written notice from Seller to Buyer of
such failure or if a "Buyer Default" has occurred under the PPG Agreement (in
any case a "Buyer Default"), and such Buyer Default is not caused by a Seller
Default, Seller, as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement, at
law and in equity, may upon written notice to Buyer, terminate this Agreement
and receive the Earnest Money, as full and final liquidated damages (except as
otherwise provided in Section 15.09 above), Buyer and Seller hereby
acknowledging that, in the event of Buyer's failure to consummate the sale
contemplated hereby, actual damages suffered by Seller would be difficult and/or
inconvenient to determine or ascertain; and, thereafter, there shall be no
further liability hereunder on the part of either party or the other party.

Personal Property and Residents' Personal Property (collectively,
the "Leased Personal Property"); and
(f) all leases of space (including any security deposits held by
Tenant pursuant thereto) in the Leased Improvements to tenants
thereof.
2.2 Condition of Collective Leased Properties. Tenant acknowledges
receipt and delivery of possession of the Collective Leased Properties and
Tenant accepts the Collective Leased Properties in their "as is" condition,
subject to the rights of parties in possession, the existing state of title,
including all covenants, conditions, restrictions, reservations, mineral leases,
easements and other matters of record or that are visible or apparent on the
Collective Leased Properties, all applicable Legal Requirements, the lien of
financing instruments, mortgages and deeds of trust, and such other matters
which would be disclosed by an inspection of the Collective Leased Properties
and the record title thereto or by an accurate survey thereof. TENANT REPRESENTS
THAT IT HAS INSPECTED THE COLLECTIVE LEASED PROPERTIES AND ALL OF THE FOREGOING
AND HAS FOUND THE CONDITION THEREOF SATISFACTORY AND IS NOT RELYING ON ANY
REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF LANDLORD OR LANDLORD'S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WITH
RESPECT THERETO AND TENANT WAIVES ANY CLAIM OR ACTION AGAINST LANDLORD IN
RESPECT OF THE CONDITION OF THE COLLECTIVE LEASED PROPERTIES. LANDLORD MAKES NO
WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE COLLECTIVE
LEASED PROPERTIES OR ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN
OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, AS TO THE QUALITY
OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT, IT BEING AGREED THAT
ALL SUCH RISKS
<PAGE>
-19-
ARE TO BE BORNE BY TENANT. To the maximum extent permitted by law, however,
Landlord hereby assigns to Tenant all of Landlord's rights to proceed against
any predecessor in title for breaches of warranties or representations, whether
by contract, at law or in equity, or for latent defects in the Collective Leased
Properties. Landlord shall fully cooperate with Tenant in the prosecution of
any such claims, in Landlord's or Tenant's name, all at Tenant's sole cost and
expense. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord from and
against any loss, cost, damage or liability (including reasonable attorneys'
fees) incurred by Landlord in connection with such cooperation.
2.3 Fixed Term. The initial term of this Agreement (the "Fixed
Term") shall commence on the Commencement Date and expire December 31, 2019.
2.4 Extended Term. Provided that no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing and this Agreement shall be in full force and effect,
Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term for two consecutive twenty-five
(25) year renewal terms (collectively, the "Extended Terms").
Each Extended Term shall commence on the day succeeding the expiration
of the Fixed Term or the preceding Extended Term, as the case may be. All of
the terms, covenants and provisions of this Agreement shall apply to each such
Extended Term, except that Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term beyond
the expiration of the Extended Terms. If Tenant shall elect to exercise either
of the aforesaid options, it shall do so by giving Landlord Notice thereof not
later than two (2) years prior to the scheduled expiration of the then current
Term of this Agreement (Fixed or Extended, as the case may be), it being
understood and agreed that time shall be of the essence with respect to the
giving of such Notice. Tenant may not exercise its option for more than one
such Extended Term at a time. If Tenant shall fail to give any such Notice,
this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the Term then in
effect and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this
Agreement. If Tenant shall give such Notice, the extension of this Agreement
shall be automatically effected without the execution of any additional
documents; it being understood and agreed, however, that Tenant and Landlord
shall execute such documents and agreements as either party shall reasonably
require to evidence the same.

RENT
----
3.1 Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in lawful money of the
United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public
and private debts, without offset, abatement, demand or deduction, Minimum Rent,
Additional Rent and Additional Charges, during the Term, except as hereinafter
expressly provided. All payments to Landlord shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available federal funds or by other means acceptable to Landlord in
its sole discretion. Rent for any partial month shall be prorated on a per diem
basis based on a 360 day year consisting of twelve (12) 30-day months.
3.1.1 Minimum Rent:
(a) During Term. Minimum Rent shall be paid in advance on the
first day of each calendar month; provided, however, that the payment of
Minimum Rent with respect to any partial month in which the Commencement
Date occurs and the first full month of the Fixed Term shall be payable on
the Commencement Date.
(b) Adjustments of Minimum Rent Following Disbursements Under
Section 6.5. Effective on the date of each disbursement to pay for the cost
of any renovations pursuant to Section 6.5, the Minimum Rent shall be
increased, effective on the date of such disbursement, to an annual sum
equal to the product of the amount advanced and the Interest Rate. If any
such disbursement is made during any calendar month on a day other than the
first day of a calendar month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first
day of the immediately following calendar month (in addition to the amount
of Minimum Rent payable with respect to such month, as adjusted pursuant to
this paragraph (b)) the amount by which Minimum Rent for the preceding
month, as adjusted for such disbursement, exceeded the amount of Minimum
Rent payable by Tenant for such preceding month without giving effect to
such adjustment.
3.1.2 Additional Rent:
(a) Amount. For each Lease Year or portion thereof during the
Term, commencing with the Lease Year beginning January 1, 1999, Tenant
shall pay, with respect to each Leased Property, additional rent
("Additional Rent") with respect to such Lease Year equal to the greatest
of (x) ten percent (10%) of Excess Total Revenues for such Leased Property
for such Lease Year; (y) the Additional Rent payable in the immediately
preceding Lease Year less the
<PAGE>
-21-
Variable Factor Amount (as hereinafter defined); and (z) zero.
As used herein, "Variable Factor Amount" shall mean an amount equal to
twenty-five percent (25%) of the amount of Additional Rent payable for the
applicable Leased Property for the last Lease Year for which Additional Rent was
payable pursuant to clause (x) above. For calculations of Additional Rent for
periods of less than a full calendar year, the Variable Factor Amount shall be
adjusted proportionately.
(b) Monthly Installments. Installments of Additional Rent for
any each Lease Year or portion thereof shall be calculated and paid monthly
in arrears based on the amount of Additional Rent payable for the preceding
Lease Year.
(c) Date of Payment of Additional Rent. Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord an Officer's Certificate setting forth the calculation of
Additional Rent due and payable for each Leased Property for each month of
any Lease Year. Each monthly payment of Additional Rent is due and payable
and shall be delivered to Landlord, together with such Officer's
Certificate, together with the applicable installment of the Minimum Rent
and shall be payable in the manner hereinabove provided for payment of
Minimum Rent.
(d) Reconciliation of Additional Rent. In addition, on or
before March 31, of each year, commencing March 31, 1998, Tenant shall
deliver to Landlord certified audits of Tenant's financial operations for
the preceding Lease Year, together with a certificate from certified public
accountants reasonably acceptable to Landlord, in form reasonably
acceptable to Landlord, setting forth the Total Revenues for each Leased
Property for such preceding Lease Year and such other matters as Landlord
may from time to time reasonably request.
If the annual Additional Rent for the Collective Leased
Properties for such preceding Lease Year as shown in the year-end
certificate exceeds the amount previously paid with respect thereto by
Tenant, Tenant shall pay such excess to Landlord at such time as the
certificate is delivered, together with interest at the Interest Rate,
which interest shall accrue from the close of such preceding Lease Year
until the date paid. If the Annual Additional Rent for the Collective
Leased Properties for such preceding Lease Year as shown in the year-end
certificate is less than the amount previously paid with respect thereto by
Tenant, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Landlord shall grant Tenant a credit equal to the amount of such
overpayment against Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such
overpayment, as finally agreed or determined. If such a credit cannot be
made because the
<PAGE>
-22-
Term has expired before such credit can be effected, provided that no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the amount of
such difference to Tenant. If an Event of Default has occurred, Landlord
shall apply such amounts to amounts due and owing under this Agreement and
to the costs of collection of the same and shall pay any excess to Tenant.
(e) Confirmation of Additional Rent. Tenant shall utilize, or
cause to be utilized, an accounting system for the Collective Leased
Properties in accordance with its usual and customary practices and in
accordance with GAAP, which will accurately record all Total Revenues, and
shall employ Ernst & Young LLP or other independent accountants reasonably
acceptable to Landlord, and Tenant shall retain, for at least five (5)
years after the expiration of each Lease Year, reasonably adequate records
conforming to such accounting system showing all Total Revenues for such
Lease Year. Landlord, at its own expense except as provided hereinbelow,
shall have the right from time to time by its accountants or
representatives to audit the information set forth in the Officer's
Certificate referred to in subparagraph (c) above or the year-end
certificate referred to in subparagraph (d) above and, in connection with
such audits, to examine Tenant's books and records (upon reasonable notice
during customary business hours) with respect thereto (including supporting
data and sales and excise tax returns) subject to any prohibitions or
limitations on disclosure of any such data under applicable law or
regulations, including such limitations as may be necessary to preserve the
confidentiality of the facility-patient relationship and the physician-
patient privilege and/or other similar privilege or confidentiality
obligations. If any such audit discloses that the Total Revenues actually
received by Tenant for any Lease Year exceed those reported by Tenant by
more than three percent (3%), Tenant shall pay the reasonable cost of such
audit and examination. If any such audit discloses that Tenant paid more
Additional Rent for any Lease Year than was due hereunder, provided no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall grant
Tenant a credit equal to the amount of such overpayment against Additional
Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference. If such a credit
cannot be made because the Term has expired before such credit can be
effected, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Landlord shall pay the amount of such difference to Tenant. If an Event of
Default has occurred, Landlord shall apply such amounts to amounts due and
owing under this Agreement and to the costs of collection of the same and
shall pay any excess to Tenant.
<PAGE>
-23-
Any proprietary information obtained by Landlord pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement shall be treated as confidential, except that
such information may be used, subject to appropriate confidentiality
safeguards, in any litigation between the parties and except further that
Landlord may disclose such information to its prospective lenders. The
obligations of Tenant and Landlord contained in this Section 3.1.2 shall
survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
3.1.3 Additional Charges. In addition to the Minimum Rent and
Additional Rent payable hereunder, Tenant shall pay and discharge as and when
due and payable the following (collectively, "Additional Charges"):
(a) Impositions. Subject to Article 8 relating to Permitted
Contests, Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Impositions before any
fine, penalty, interest or cost (other than any opportunity cost as a
result of a failure to take advantage of any discount for early payment)
may be added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the
taxing authorities where feasible, and shall promptly, upon request,
furnish to Landlord copies of official receipts or other satisfactory proof
evidencing such payments. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the
taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall
accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Tenant may exercise the
option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of
such Imposition) in installments and, in such event, subject to Article 8
relating to Permitted Contests, shall pay such installments which are due
during or with respect to periods occurring during the Term as the same
become due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost
may be added thereto. Landlord, at its expense, shall, to the extent
required or permitted by applicable law, prepare and file all tax returns
in respect of Landlord's net income, gross receipts, sales and use, single
business, transaction privilege, rent, ad valorem, franchise taxes and
taxes on its capital stock, and Tenant, at its expense, shall, to the
extent required or permitted by applicable laws and regulations, prepare
and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any Imposition as
may be required by Government Agencies. Provided no Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, if any refund shall be due from any taxing
authority in respect of any Imposition paid by Tenant, the same shall be
paid over to or retained by Tenant. If an Event of Default has occurred,
Landlord shall apply such amounts to amounts due and owing under this
Agreement and to the costs of collection of the same and shall pay any
excess to Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other,
provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made
with
<PAGE>
-24-
respect to the Collective Leased Properties as may be necessary to prepare
any required returns and reports. In the event Government Agencies classify
any property covered by this Agreement as personal property, Tenant shall
file all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may
legally so file. Each party shall, to the extent it possesses the same,
provide the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records
necessary for filing returns for any property so classified as personal
property. Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax
returns, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in
sufficient time for Tenant to file a protest. All Impositions assessed
against such personal property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord
or Tenant shall file the relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the
last date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty,
subject to the provisions of Article 8 relating to Permitted Contests. If
the provisions of any Facility Mortgage require deposits on account of
Impositions to be made with such Facility Mortgagee, provided the Facility
Mortgagee has not elected to waive such provision, Tenant shall either pay
Landlord the monthly amounts required at the time and place that payments
of Minimum Rent are required and Landlord shall transfer such amounts to
such Facility Mortgagee or, pursuant to written direction by Landlord,
Tenant shall make such deposits directly with such Facility Mortgagee and
any interest paid to Landlord with respect thereto shall be credited to
Tenant.
Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions
payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge;
provided, however, that Landlord's failure to give any such notice shall in
no way diminish Tenant's obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions,
except that Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any late charges or
penalties attributable to Landlord's failure to give such Notice promptly
to Tenant.
(b) Utility Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all
charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and other utilities used in
connection with the Collective Leased Properties.
(c) Insurance Premiums. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid
all premiums for the insurance coverage required to be maintained pursuant
to Article 9.
(d) Other Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all
other amounts, liabilities and obligations which Tenant assumes or agrees
to pay under this Agreement, including, without limitation, all agreements
to indemnify Landlord under Sections 4.4 and 9.7.
<PAGE>
-25-
(e) Reimbursement for Additional Charges. If Tenant pays or
causes to be paid property taxes or similar Additional Charges attributable
to periods after the end of the Term, whether upon expiration or sooner
termination of this Agreement (other than termination following an Event of
Default) and Tenant has not exercised its right to purchase the Collective
Leased Properties as provided herein, Tenant may, within sixty (60) days of
the end of the Term, provide Notice to Landlord of its estimate of such
amounts. Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for all payments of such
taxes and other similar Additional Charges that are attributable to any
period after the Term of this Agreement (unless this Agreement shall have
been terminated following an Event of Default). If an Event of Default has
occurred, Landlord shall apply such amounts to amounts due and owing under
this Agreement and to the costs of collection of the same and shall pay any
excess to Tenant.
3.2 Late Payment of Rent. If any installment of Minimum Rent,
Additional Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional Charges
which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be paid on its due date,
Tenant shall pay Landlord, on demand, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to
the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such
installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment
thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly to
Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this
Agreement, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional
Charges to the Entity to which they would otherwise be due.
In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Charges
when due, Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge, as Additional Charges, every
fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added for non-payment or late
payment of such items. Landlord shall have all legal, equitable and contractual
rights, powers and remedies provided either in this Agreement or by statute or
otherwise in the case of non-payment of the Additional Charges as in the case of
non-payment of the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent.
3.3 Net Lease. The Minimum Rent and Additional Rent shall be
absolutely net to Landlord so that this Agreement shall yield to Landlord the
full amount of the installments or amounts of Minimum Rent and Additional Rent
throughout the Term, subject to any other provisions of this Agreement which
expressly provide for adjustment or abatement of such Rent.
3.4 No Termination, Abatement, Etc. Except as otherwise specifically
provided in this Agreement, Tenant, to the maximum extent permitted by law,
shall remain bound by this Agreement in accordance with its terms and shall
neither take any action without the consent of Landlord to modify, surrender or
terminate
<PAGE>
-26-
this Agreement, nor seek, nor be entitled to any abatement, deduction, deferment
or reduction of the Rent, or set-off against the Rent, nor shall the respective
obligations of Landlord and Tenant be otherwise affected by reason of (a) any
damage to or destruction of any of the Collective Leased Properties or any
portion thereof from whatever cause or any Condemnation; (b) the lawful or
unlawful prohibition of, or restriction upon, Tenant's use of any of the
Collective Leased Properties, or any portion thereof, or the interference with
such use by any Person or by reason of eviction by paramount title; (c) any
claim which Tenant may have against Landlord by reason of any default or breach
of any warranty by Landlord under this Agreement; (d) any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution,
winding up or other proceedings affecting Landlord or any assignee or transferee
of Landlord; or (e) for any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of
the foregoing. Tenant hereby waives all rights arising from any occurrence
whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by law, to (a)
modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement or quit or surrender any of the
Collective Leased Properties or any portion thereof; or (b) entitle Tenant to
any abatement, reduction, suspension or deferment of the Rent or other sums
payable or other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder, except as
otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. The obligations of Tenant
hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements, and the
Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant hereunder shall continue to be payable
in all events unless the obligations to pay the same shall be terminated,
modified or amended pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement.

the Term and at any other time that Tenant shall be in possession of any
Leased Property, continuously use each of the Collective Leased Properties
as a senior housing and assisted living facility and for such other uses as
may be related, incidental or necessary thereto (such use being hereinafter
referred to as such Leased Property's "Primary Intended Use"). Except for
uses as provided and described in Section 16.3, Tenant shall not use any of
the Collective Leased Properties or any portion thereof for any other use
without the prior written consent of Landlord. No use shall be made or
permitted to be made of any of the Collective Leased Properties and no acts

<PAGE>
-27-
any part thereof (unless another adequate policy is available), nor shall
Tenant sell or otherwise provide to residents or patients therein, or
permit to be kept, used or sold in or about any of the Collective Leased
Properties any article which may be prohibited by law or by the standard

at its sole cost, comply with all of the requirements pertaining to the
Collective Leased Properties of any insurance board, association,
organization or company necessary for the maintenance of insurance, as
herein provided, covering the Collective Leased Properties and Tenant's

Intended Use.
4.1.2 Necessary Approvals. Tenant shall proceed with all due
diligence and exercise best efforts to obtain and maintain all approvals
necessary to use and operate, for its Primary Intended Use, each of the
Collective Leased Properties and each Facility located thereon under

licensure, if any.
4.1.3 Lawful Use, Etc. Tenant shall not use or suffer or permit
the use of any of the Collective Leased Properties or Tenant's Personal
Property for any unlawful purpose. Tenant shall not commit or suffer to be

Facility, nor shall Tenant cause or permit any nuisance thereon or therein.
Tenant shall neither suffer nor permit any of the Collective Leased
Properties or any portion thereof, including any Capital Addition, or
Tenant's Personal Property, to be used in such a manner as (a) might
reasonably tend to impair Landlord's (or Tenant's, as the case may be)
title thereto or to any portion thereof, or (b) may reasonably make
possible a claim or claims for adverse usage or adverse possession by the
public, as such, or of implied dedication of the applicable Leased Property
or any portion thereof.
4.2 Compliance with Legal and Insurance Requirements, Etc. Subject to
the provisions of Article 8, Tenant, at its sole expense, shall (a) comply in

and maintenance of the Collective Leased Properties or any part thereof,
including, without limitation, any Capital Additions, except where the failure
to comply will not have a material adverse effect on the use or operation of any
of the Collective Leased Properties for its Primary Intended Use or adversely
effect Total Revenues.
4.3 Compliance with Medicaid and Medicare Requirements. Tenant shall,
at its sole cost and expense, make whatever improvements (capital or ordinary)
as are required to conform in all material respects each of the Collective
Leased Properties to such standards, if any, as may, from time to time, be
required by Federal Medicare (Title 18) or Medicaid (Title 19) skilled and/or
intermediate care nursing programs, to the extent Tenant is a participant in
such programs, or any other applicable programs or legislation, or capital
improvements required by any other governmental agency having jurisdiction over
such Leased Property as a condition of the continued operation of such Leased
Property for its Primary Intended Use, except where the failure to comply will
not have a material adverse effect on the use or operation of any of the
Collective Leased Properties for its Primary Intended Use or adversely effect
Total Revenues.
4.4 Environmental Matters.
4.4.1 Restriction on Use, Etc. Tenant shall not store, spill
upon, dispose of or transfer to or from the Collective Leased Properties
any Hazardous Substance, except that Tenant may store, transfer and dispose
of Hazardous Substances in material compliance with all Applicable Laws.
Tenant shall maintain the Collective Leased Properties at all times free of
any Hazardous Substance (except such Hazardous Substances as are maintained
in compliance with all Applicable Laws). Tenant shall promptly: (a) notify
Landlord in writing of any change in the nature or extent of Hazardous
Substances at any of the Collective Leased Properties to the extent such
change violates Applicable Laws; (b) transmit to Landlord a copy of any
Community Right to Know report which is required to be filed by Tenant with

Tenant or its agents or representatives with respect thereto (collectively,
"Environmental Notice"), which Environmental Notice requires a written
response or any action to be taken
<PAGE>
-29-
and/or if such Environmental Notice gives notice of and/or could give rise
to a violation of any Applicable Law and/or could give rise to any cost,
expense, loss or damage (an "Environmental Obligation"); (d) observe and
comply in all material respects with all Applicable Laws relating to the
use, maintenance and disposal of Hazardous Substances and all orders or
directives from any official, court or agency of competent jurisdiction
relating to the use or maintenance or requiring the removal, treatment,
containment or other disposition thereof; and (e) pay or otherwise dispose
of any fine, charge or Imposition related thereto, unless Tenant shall
contest the same in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and the right
to use and the value of any of the Collective Leased Properties is not
materially and adversely affected thereby.
If, at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement,
Hazardous Substances are discovered on any of the Collective Leased
Properties in violation of Applicable Law, Tenant shall take all actions
and incur any and all expenses, as may be reasonably necessary and as may
be required by any Government Agency, (i) to clean up and remove from and
about the Collective Leased Properties all Hazardous Substances thereon,
(ii) to contain and prevent any further release or threat of release of
Hazardous Substances on or about the Collective Leased Properties and (iii)
to use good faith efforts to eliminate any further release or threat of
release of Hazardous Substances on or about the Collective Leased
Properties.
4.4.2 Environment Report. Six (6) months prior to expiration of
the Term, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall designate a qualified
environmental engineer, satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion,
which engineer shall conduct an environmental investigation of the
Collective Leased Properties and prepare an environmental site assessment
report (the "Environmental Report") with respect thereto. The scope of such
Environmental Report shall include, without limitation, review of relevant
records, interviews with persons knowledgeable about the Collective Leased
Properties and relevant governmental agencies, a site inspection of the
Collective Leased Properties, any buildings, the fencelines of the
Collective Leased Properties and adjoining properties (Phase I) and shall
otherwise be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Landlord. If
such investigation, in the opinion of the performing engineer, indicates
that any of the Collective Leased Properties are not free from oil,
asbestos, radon and other Hazardous Substances (except in compliance with
Applicable Laws), such investigation shall also include a more detailed
physical site inspection,
<PAGE>
-30-
appropriate testing, subsurface and otherwise, and review of historical
records (Phase II) to demonstrate the compliance of such of the Collective
Leased Properties with Applicable Laws and the absence of Hazardous
Substances.
Copies of the Environmental Report, and supplements and
amendments thereto, shall be provided to Landlord. With respect to any
recommendations contained in the Environmental Report, violations of
Applicable Laws and/or the existence of any conditions at any of the
Collective Leased Properties which could give rise to an Environmental
Obligation, Tenant shall promptly give Notice thereof to Landlord, together
with a description, setting forth in reasonable detail, all actions Tenant
proposes to take in connection therewith and Tenant shall promptly take all
actions, and incur any and all expenses, as may be reasonably necessary and
as may be required by any Government Agency and as may be reasonably
required by Landlord, to the extent required by Applicable Law, (i) to
clean up, remove or remediate from and about the Collective Leased
Properties all Hazardous Substances thereon, (ii) to contain, prevent and
eliminate any further release or threat of release of Hazardous Substances
on or about the Collective Leased Properties, and (iii) otherwise to
eliminate such violation or condition from the Collective Leased Properties
to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord.
4.4.3 Indemnification of Landlord. Tenant shall protect,
indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and each Facility Mortgagee, their
trustees, officers, agents, employees and beneficiaries, and any of their
respective successors or assigns (hereafter the "Indemnitees," and when
referred to singly, an "Indemnitee") for, from and against any and all
debts, liens, claims, causes of action, administrative orders or notices,
costs, fines, penalties or expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) imposed upon, incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnitee resulting from, either directly or
indirectly, the presence in, upon or under the soil or ground water of any
of the Collective Leased Properties or any properties surrounding any of
the Collective Leased Properties of any Hazardous Substances in violation
of any Applicable Law or otherwise by reason of any failure by Tenant or
any Person to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Section 4.4.
Tenant's duty herein includes, but is not limited to, costs associated with
personal injury or property damage claims as a result of the presence of
Hazardous Substances in, upon or under the soil or ground water of any of
the Collective Leased Properties in violation of any Applicable Law. Upon
Notice
<PAGE>
-31-
from Landlord, Tenant shall undertake the defense, at Tenant's sole cost
and expense, of any indemnification duties set forth herein.
Tenant shall, upon demand, pay to Landlord, as an Additional
Charge, any cost, expense, loss or damage (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Landlord and arising from a failure
of Tenant strictly to observe and perform the foregoing requirements, which
amounts shall bear interest from the date incurred until paid by Tenant to
Landlord at the Overdue Rate.
4.4.4 Survival. The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall
survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 5
---------
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS, ETC.
-----------------------------
5.1 Maintenance and Repair.
5.1.1 Tenant's Obligations. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and
expense, keep each of the Collective Leased Properties and all private
roadways, sidewalks and curbs appurtenant thereto (and Tenant's Personal
Property) in good order and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted
(whether or not the need for such repairs occurs as a result of Tenant's
use, any prior use, the elements or the age of the Collective Leased
Properties or Tenant's Personal Property, or any portion thereof), and
shall promptly make all necessary and appropriate repairs and replacements
thereto of every kind and nature, whether interior or exterior, structural
or nonstructural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen or
arising by reason of a condition existing prior to the commencement of the
Term (concealed or otherwise); provided, however, that Tenant shall be
permitted to prosecute claims against Landlord's predecessors in title for
breach of any representation or warranty made to or on behalf of Landlord,
whether in contract, at law or in equity, or for any latent defects in the
Collective Leased Properties. All repairs shall be made in good,
workmanlike and first-class manner, in accordance with all applicable
federal, state and local statutes, ordinances, by-laws, codes, rules and
regulations relating to any such work. Tenant shall not take or omit to
take any action, the taking or omission of which would materially impair
the value or the usefulness of any of the Collective Leased Properties or
any part thereof for its respective Primary Intended Uses. Tenant's
obligations under this
<PAGE>
-32-
Section 5.1.1 as to any of the Collective Leased Properties shall be
limited in the event of any casualty or Condemnation involving such Leased
Property as set forth in Sections 10.2 and 11.2. Notwithstanding any
provisions of this Section 5.1 to the contrary, Tenant's obligations with
respect to Hazardous Substances are as set forth in Section 4.4.
5.1.2 Landlord's Obligations. Landlord shall not, under any
circumstances, be required to build or rebuild any improvement on the
Collective Leased Properties, or to make any repairs, replacements,
alterations, restorations or renewals of any nature or description to the
Collective Leased Properties, whether ordinary or extraordinary, structural
or nonstructural, foreseen or unforeseen, or to make any expenditure
whatsoever with respect thereto (except as provided in Articles 10 and 11
with respect to disbursement of insurance and Award proceeds), or to
maintain the Collective Leased Properties in any way, except as
specifically provided herein. Tenant hereby waives, to the maximum extent
permitted by law, the right to make repairs at the expense of Landlord
pursuant to any law in effect on the date hereof or hereafter enacted.
Landlord shall have the right to give, record and post, as appropriate,
notices of nonresponsibility under any mechanic's lien laws now or
hereafter existing.
5.1.3 Nonresponsibility of Landlord; No Mechanics Liens.
Landlord's interest in the Collective Leased Properties shall not be
subject to liens for Capital Additions made by Tenant and Tenant shall have
no power or authority to create any lien or permit any lien to attach to
any of the Collective Leased Properties or the present estate, reversion or
other estate of Landlord in the Collective Leased Properties or on the
building or other improvements thereon as a result of Capital Additions
made by Tenant or for any other cause or reason. All materialmen,
contractors, artisans, mechanics and laborers and other persons contracting
with Tenant with respect to the Collective Leased Properties, or any part
thereof, are hereby charged with notice that such liens are expressly
prohibited and that they must look solely to Tenant to secure payment for
any work done or material furnished for Capital Additions by Tenant or for
any other purpose during the term of this Agreement.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed
in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or
implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor,
laborer or materialmen for the performance of any labor or the furnishing
of any
<PAGE>
-33-
materials for any alteration, addition, improvement or repair to any of the
Collective Leased Properties or any part thereof or as giving Tenant any
right, power or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any
services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to the
filing of any lien against any of the Collective Leased Properties or any
part thereof nor to subject Landlord's estate in any of the Collective
Leased Properties or any part thereof to liability under any Mechanic's
Lien Law of the State in any way, it being expressly understood Landlord's
estate shall not be subject to any such liability.
5.2 Tenant's Personal Property. Tenant may (and shall as provided
hereinbelow), at its expense, install, affix or assemble or place on any parcels
of the Land or in any of the Leased Improvements, any items of Tenant's Personal
Property, and Tenant may, subject to the conditions set forth below, remove the
same at any time, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing. Tenant shall provide and maintain throughout the Term all such
Tenant's Personal Property as shall be necessary in order to operate all of the
Facilities located at the Collective Leased Properties in material compliance
with all applicable licensure and certification requirements, in compliance with
applicable Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements. All of Tenant's
Personal Property not removed by Tenant on or prior to the expiration or earlier
termination of this Agreement shall be considered abandoned by Tenant and may be
appropriated, sold, destroyed or otherwise disposed of by Landlord without the
necessity of first giving notice thereof to Tenant, without any payment to
Tenant and without any obligation to account therefor. Tenant shall, at its
expense, restore each of the Collective Leased Properties to the condition
required by Section 5.3, including repair of all damage to the Collective Leased
Properties caused by the removal of Tenant's Personal Property, whether effected
by Tenant or Landlord.
If Tenant uses any item of tangible personal property (other than
motor vehicles) on, or in connection with, any Leased Property which belongs to
anyone other than Tenant, Tenant shall use its reasonable efforts to require the
agreement permitting such use to provide that Landlord or its designee may
assume Tenant's rights under such agreement upon management or operation of the
applicable Facility by Landlord or its designee.
5.3 Yield Up. (a) Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this
Agreement, Tenant shall vacate and surrender each of the Collective Leased
Properties to Landlord in the condition in which each of the Collective Leased
Properties was in on the Commencement Date, except as repaired, rebuilt,
restored, altered or added to as permitted or required by the
<PAGE>
-34-
provisions of this Agreement, reasonable wear and tear excepted (and casualty
damage and Condemnation, in the event that this Agreement is terminated with
respect to any of the Collective Leased Properties following a casualty or total
Condemnation in accordance with Article 10 or Article 11).
In addition, upon the expiration or earlier termination of this
Agreement, Tenant shall, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, use its best
efforts to transfer to and cooperate with Landlord or Landlord's nominee in
connection with the processing of all applications for licenses, operating
permits and other governmental authorizations and all contracts, including
contracts with governmental or quasi-governmental entities which may be
necessary for the operation of the Facilities located on the Collective Leased
Properties. If requested by Landlord, Tenant will continue to manage any such
Facility after the expiration of the Term and for as long thereafter as is
necessary to obtain all necessary licenses, operating permits and other
governmental authorizations, on such reasonable terms (which shall include an
agreement to pay Tenant a market rate management fee and reimburse Tenant for
its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, and reasonable administrative
costs) as Landlord shall request.
(b) Effective on not less than fifteen (15) days' prior Notice given
at least sixty (60) days prior to expiration of the Term (or such shorter period
as shall be appropriate if this Agreement is terminated with respect to any of
the Collective Leased Properties prior to its expiration date), Landlord shall
have the option to purchase all (but not less than all) of Tenant's Personal
Property (except motor vehicles) with respect to any of the Collective Leased
Properties, at the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement with
respect to such Leased Property, for an amount equal to the then fair market
value thereof (determined by the agreement of Landlord and Tenant if they can
agree and otherwise in accordance with the appraisal procedures set forth in
Article 19), subject to, and with appropriate price adjustments for, all
equipment leases, conditional sale contracts, security interests and other
encumbrances to which such Tenant's Personal Property is subject. Tenant's
Personal Property shall be conveyed to Landlord on an "as-is" basis, in its then
current condition and state of repair. Tenant shall provide Landlord with
warranties of title, reflecting no encumbrances as to which adjustments to the
purchase price thereof, as required by the previous sentence, have not been
made. Failure of Landlord to notify Tenant of its election to purchase Tenant's
Personal Property at any of the Collective Leased Properties by the 75th day
prior to the expiration of this Agreement (or such shorter period as may be
appropriate if this Agreement is terminated with respect to any of the
Collective Leased Properties prior to its expiration date)
<PAGE>
-35-
shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of Landlord's right to purchase Tenant's
Personal Property with respect to such Leased Property.
5.4 Encroachments, Restrictions, Etc. If any of the Leased
Improvements shall, at any time, encroach upon any property, street or right-of-
way adjacent to the affected Leased Property, or shall violate the agreements or
conditions contained in any lawful restrictive covenant or other agreement
affecting any of the Collective Leased Properties, or any part thereof, or shall
impair the rights of others under any easement or right-of-way to which any of
the Collective Leased Properties is subject, upon the request of Landlord (but
only as to any encroachment, violation or impairment that is not a Permitted
Encumbrance) or of any Person affected by any such encroachment, violation or
impairment, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, subject to its right to
contest the existence of any encroachment, violation or impairment in accordance
with the provisions of Article 8, either (a) obtain valid and effective waivers
or settlements of all claims, liabilities and damages resulting from each such
encroachment, violation or impairment, whether the same shall affect Landlord or
Tenant, or (b) make such changes in the Leased Improvements and take such other
actions, as are reasonably practicable to remove such encroachment and to end
such violation or impairment, including, if necessary, the alteration of any of
the Leased Improvements and, in any event, take all such actions as may be
necessary in order to ensure the continued operation of the affected Leased
Improvements for their respective Primary Intended Use substantially in the
manner and to the extent such Leased Improvements were operated prior to the
assertion of such violation, impairment or encroachment. Any such alteration
shall be made in conformity with the applicable requirements of this Article 5.
Tenant's obligations under this Section 5.4 shall be in addition to and shall in
no way discharge or diminish any obligation of any insurer under any policy of
title or other insurance.
5.5 Landlord to Grant Easements, Etc. Landlord shall from time to
time, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at
the request of Tenant and at Tenant's sole cost and expense, (a) grant easements
and other rights in the nature of easements with respect to any of the
Collective Leased Properties to third parties; (b) release existing easements or
other rights in the nature of easements which are for the benefit of any of the
Collective Leased Properties; (c) dedicate or transfer unimproved portions of
any of the Collective Leased Properties for road, highway or other public
purposes; (d) execute petitions to have any of the Collective Leased Properties
annexed to any municipal corporation or utility district; (e) execute amendments
to any covenants and restrictions affecting any of the Collective Leased
Properties; and (f) execute and
<PAGE>
-36-
deliver to any Person any instrument appropriate to confirm or effect such
grants, release, dedications, transfers, petitions and amendments (to the extent
of its interests in such Leased Property); provided, however, that Landlord
shall have first reasonably determined in good faith that such grant, release,
dedication, transfer, petition or amendment is not detrimental to the operation
of the applicable Leased Property for its Primary Intended Use and does not
materially reduce the value of such Leased Property, and Landlord shall have
received an Officer's Certificate certifying that such grant, release,
dedication, transfer, petition or amendment is not detrimental to the operation
of the applicable Leased Property for its Primary Intended use and does not
materially reduce the value of such Leased Property, together with such
additional information with respect thereto as Landlord may reasonably request.

CAPITAL ADDITIONS, ETC.
-----------------------
6.1 Construction of Capital Additions. Tenant shall not construct or
install Capital Additions on any of the Collective Leased Properties without
obtaining Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, provided that no consent shall be
required for any Capital Addition so long as (a) the Capital Additions Costs for
such Capital Addition are less than $250,000 in the aggregate; (b) such
construction or installation would not adversely affect or violate any Legal
Requirement or Insurance Requirement applicable to the applicable Leased
Property; and (c) Landlord shall have received an Officer's Certificate
certifying as to the satisfaction of the conditions set out in clauses (a) and
(b) above. If Landlord's consent is required, prior to commencing construction
of any Capital Addition, Tenant shall submit to Landlord, in writing, a proposal
setting forth, in reasonable detail, any proposed Capital Addition and shall
provide to Landlord such plans and specifications, permits, licenses, contracts
and other information concerning the proposed Capital Addition as Landlord may
reasonably request. Landlord shall have ten (10) Business Days to review all
materials submitted to Landlord in connection with any such proposal. Failure of
Landlord to respond to Tenant's proposal within ten (10) Business Days after
receipt of all information and materials requested by Landlord in connection
with the proposed Capital Addition shall be deemed to constitute approval of
such proposed Capital Addition. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, such proposal shall indicate the approximate projected cost of
constructing such Capital Addition and the use or uses to which it will be put.
No Capital Addition shall be made which would tie in or connect any Leased
Improvement on the applicable
<PAGE>
-37-
Leased Property with any other improvements on property adjacent to such Leased
Property (and not part of the Land), including, without limitation, tie-ins of
buildings or other structures or utilities. Tenant shall not finance the cost
of any construction of any Capital Addition except as provided in Section 6.2.1.
Any Capital Additions (including Tenant's Capital Additions) shall, upon the
expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, pass to and become the
property of Landlord, free and clear of all encumbrances other than Permitted
Encumbrances but subject to Landlord's obligation to compensate Tenant for
Tenant's Capital Additions as provided below.

6.2.1 Financing of Capital Additions. Tenant may arrange for

lender with respect thereto shall be a Subordinated Creditor and any
security interests in any property of Tenant, including, without
limitation, the applicable Leased Property, shall be expressly and fully
subordinated to this Agreement and to the interest of Landlord in the
applicable Leased Property and to the rights of any Facility Mortgagee; and
(c) the aggregate proceeds of such financing shall be used for improvements

financing of any Capital Additions shall be subject to Landlord's prior
written approval, which approval may be given or withheld by Landlord in
Landlord's sole discretion.
6.2.2 Purchase by Landlord. If, pursuant to the provisions of
this Agreement, Tenant either pays for or arranges financing (to the extent
permitted in Section 6.2.1) to pay for the costs of construction or
installation of any Capital Addition ("Tenant's Capital Additions") (but
excluding, in any event, any Capital Addition financed by or through
Landlord including, without limitation, all Capital Additions paid for or
financed through disbursements under Section 6.5), upon the expiration or
earlier termination of this Agreement (but if this Agreement is terminated
by reason of an Event of Default, only after Landlord is fully compensated
for all damages resulting therefrom), Landlord shall compensate Tenant for
all Tenant's Capital Additions in any of the following ways determined in
Landlord's sole discretion:
(a) By purchasing such Tenant's Capital Additions from Tenant
for cash in the amount of the then Fair Market Added Value of such Tenant's
Capital Additions; or
<PAGE>
-38-
(b) By making such other arrangement regarding such compensation
as shall be mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant.
6.3 Capital Additions Financed by Landlord. If Landlord shall, at
the request of Tenant and in Landlord's sole discretion (except as provided in
Section 6.5), elect to finance any proposed Capital Addition, Tenant shall
provide Landlord with such information as Landlord may from time to time
request, including, without limitation, the following:

(f) Endorsements to any outstanding policy of title insurance
covering the applicable Leased Property or commitments therefor, reasonably
satisfactory in form and substance to Landlord, (i) updating the same

the Fair Market Value of the Capital Addition (except to the extent covered

below);
<PAGE>
-39-
(g) If appropriate, (i) an owner's policy of title insurance
insuring fee simple title to any land conveyed to Landlord pursuant to
subparagraph (e) above, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances,
except those reasonably approved by Landlord, and (ii) a lender's policy of
title insurance, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Landlord
and any Facility Mortgagee; and
(h) Prints of architectural and engineering drawings relating

resolutions of the board of directors of Tenant authorizing the execution
and delivery of any lease amendment or other instruments reasonably

advancing or reimbursing Landlord or Tenant for any portion of the Capital
Additions Cost.
If Landlord shall finance the proposed Capital Addition, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred by Landlord
and any Facility Mortgagee or Lending Institution which has committed to finance
such Capital Addition in connection therewith, including, but not limited to,
(a) the reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, (b) all printing expenses, (c)
all filing, registration and recording taxes and fees, (d) documentary stamp
taxes, (e) title insurance charges, appraisal fees, and rating agency fees, and

6.4 Non-Capital Additions. Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant's
sole cost and expense, without Landlord consent, to make additions,
modifications or improvements to the Collective Leased Properties which are not
Capital Additions ("Non-Capital Additions") from time to time as Tenant, in its
discretion, may deem desirable for the applicable Primary Intended Use provided
that any such Non-Capital Addition will not materially alter the character or
purpose or materially detract from the value, operating efficiency or revenue-
producing capability of the applicable Leased Property or adversely affect the
ability of Tenant to comply with the provisions of this Agreement and, without
limiting the foregoing, will not adversely affect or violate any Legal
Requirement or Insurance Requirement applicable to the applicable Leased
Property. All such Non-Capital Additions shall, upon expiration or earlier
termination of this Agreement, pass to and become the property of Landlord, free
and clear of all liens and encumbrances, other than Permitted Encumbrances.
6.5 Improvement Advances. At any time during that portion of the
Term commencing on the Commencement Date and expiring June 30, 1998, Landlord
agrees to advance to Tenant, from time to time, as hereinafter provided, an

together with such other information with respect thereto as Landlord may
reasonably require, including, without limitation, the items identified in
Section 6.3, if applicable. Any such requisition shall be for not less than

$2,500,000 and the aggregate of all prior disbursements). Such requisitions
shall be made not more frequently than monthly.

Landlord a security interest in and an express contractual lien upon Tenant's
Personal Property (except motor vehicles), and all ledger sheets, files,
records, documents and instruments (including, without limitation, computer
programs, tapes and related electronic data processing) relating primarily to

Tenant shall have the right to contest the amount or validity of any
Imposition, Legal Requirement, Insurance Requirement, lien, attachment, levy,
encumbrance, charge or claim (collectively, "Claims") as to any of the
Collective Leased Properties, by appropriate legal proceedings, conducted in
good faith and with due diligence, provided that (a) the foregoing shall in no
way be construed as relieving, modifying or extending Tenant's obligation to pay
any Claims as finally determined; (b)
<PAGE>
-42-
such contest shall not cause Landlord or Tenant to be in default under any
mortgage or deed of trust encumbering such Leased Property or any interest
therein or result in a lien attaching to such Leased Property; (c) no part of
such Leased Property nor any Rent therefrom shall be in any immediate danger of
sale, forfeiture, attachment or loss; and (d) Tenant shall indemnify and hold
harmless Landlord from and against any cost, claim, damage, penalty or

reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that all Claims which may be assessed
against any of the Collective Leased Properties, together with all interest and
penalties thereon will be paid, or (ii) deposit within the time otherwise

Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee with reasonable evidence of such deposit,
title indemnity, endorsement or other assurance within five (5) days after

legally to prosecute such contest, provided that Landlord shall not thereby be
subjected to any liability therefor (including, without limitation, for the
payment of any costs or expenses in connection therewith). Tenant shall be
entitled to any refund of any Claims and such charges and penalties or interest
thereon which have been paid by Tenant or paid by Landlord and for which
Landlord has been fully reimbursed by Tenant. If Tenant shall fail (x) to pay
any Claims when finally determined, (y) to provide security therefor as provided
in this Article 8, or (z) to prosecute any such contest diligently and in good
faith, Landlord may, upon reasonable notice to Tenant which notice shall not be
required if Landlord shall reasonably determine that the same is not
practicable), pay such charges, together with interest and penalties due with
respect thereto, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor, upon demand, as
Additional Charges.

INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION
-----------------------------
9.1 General Insurance Requirements. Tenant shall, at all times
during the Term and at any other time Tenant shall be in possession of any of

and all property located therein or thereon, including Tenant's Personal
Property, insured
<PAGE>
-43-
against the risks and in the amounts as follows and shall maintain the following
insurance:
(a) "All-risk" property insurance, including insurance against
loss or damage by fire, vandalism and malicious mischief, explosion of

customary for comparable properties in the area and in an amount sufficient
to prevent Landlord or Tenant from becoming a co-insurer;
(c) Comprehensive general liability insurance, including bodily
injury and property damage (on an occurrence basis and on a 1988 ISO CGL
form or its equivalent or otherwise in the broadest form available,
including, without limitation, broad form contractual liability, fire legal

such other hazards and in such amounts as may be customary for comparable
properties in the area;
(e) Worker's compensation insurance coverage for all persons

Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee shall reasonably require; and
(f) Such additional insurance as may be reasonably required,
from time to time, by Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee.
9.2 Replacement Cost. "Replacement Cost" as used herein shall mean
the actual replacement cost of the property requiring replacement from time to
time, including an increased cost of construction endorsement, less exclusions
provided in the standard form of fire insurance policy. In the event either
party believes that the then full Replacement Cost has increased or decreased at
any time during the Term, such party, at its own cost, shall have the right to
have such full Replacement Cost redetermined by an accredited appraiser approved
by the other, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The
party desiring to have the full Replacement Cost so redetermined shall
forthwith, on receipt of such determination by such appraiser, give written
notice thereof to the other. The determination of such appraiser shall be final
and binding on the parties hereto, and Tenant shall forthwith conform the amount
of the insurance carried to the amount so determined by the appraiser.
9.3 Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant agree that (insofar
as and to the extent that such agreement may be effective without invalidating
or making it impossible to secure insurance coverage from responsible insurance
companies doing business in the State) with respect to any property loss which
is covered by insurance then being carried by Landlord or Tenant, respectively,
the party carrying such insurance and suffering said loss releases the other of
and from any and all claims with respect to such loss; and they further agree
that their respective insurance companies shall have no right of subrogation
against the other on account thereof, even though extra premium may result
therefrom. In the event that any extra premium is payable by Tenant as a result
of this provision, Landlord shall not be liable for reimbursement to Tenant for
such extra premium.
9.4 Form Satisfactory, Etc. All insurance policies and endorsements
required pursuant to this Article 9 shall be fully paid for, nonassessable and

amounts and issued by insurance carriers authorized to do business in the State,
having a general policy holder's rating of A or A+ in Best's latest rating
guide, and as otherwise shall be approved by Landlord. Without limiting the
foregoing, such policies shall include no deductible in excess of $25,000
(unless consistent with
<PAGE>
-45-
deductibles included in policies carried by entities engaged in similar
businesses and owning similar properties similarly situated and agreed to in
advance by Landlord) and, with the exception of the insurance described in
Section 9.1(e), shall name Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee as additional
insureds, as their interests may appear. All losses shall be payable to
Landlord, any Facility Mortgagee or Tenant as provided in Article 10. Any loss
adjustment shall require the prior written consent of Landlord, Tenant, and each
Facility Mortgagee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned by Landlord. Tenant shall pay all insurance premiums and deliver
policies or certificates thereof to Landlord prior to their effective date (and,
with respect to any renewal policy, thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of
the existing policy) and, in the event Tenant shall fail to effect such
insurance as herein required, to pay the premiums therefor or to deliver such
policies or certificates to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee at the times
required, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon the giving
of written Notice thereof to Tenant, to acquire such insurance and pay the
premiums therefor, which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as
Additional Charges, together with interest accrued thereon at the Overdue Rate
from the date such payment is made until the date repaid. All such policies
shall provide Landlord (and any Facility Mortgagee, if required by the same)
thirty (30) days' prior written notice of any modification, expiration or
cancellation of such policy.
9.5 Blanket Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Article 9, Tenant's obligation to maintain the insurance
herein required may be brought within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy
or policies of insurance carried and maintained by Tenant and its Affiliated
Persons, provided, that (a) the coverage thereby afforded will not be reduced or
diminished from that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other
requirements of this Agreement, and (b) the requirements of this Article 9 are
otherwise satisfied. Without limiting the foregoing, the amounts of insurance
that are required to be maintained pursuant to Section 9.1 shall be on a
Facility by Facility basis, and shall not be subject to an aggregate limit less
than the sum of the coverages required for each Leased Property (except in the
case of the umbrella coverage required under Section 9.1(c)).
9.6 No Separate Insurance. Tenant shall not take out separate
insurance, concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that
required by this Article 9, or increase the amount of any existing insurance by
securing an additional policy or additional policies, unless all parties having
an insurable interest in the subject matter of such insurance, including
Landlord and all Facility Mortgagees, are included
<PAGE>
-46-
therein as additional insureds and the loss is payable under such insurance in
the same manner as losses are payable under this Agreement. In the event Tenant
shall take out any such separate insurance or increase any of the amounts of the
then existing insurance, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice thereof.
9.7 Indemnification of Landlord. Notwithstanding the existence of
any insurance provided for herein and without regard to the policy limits of any
such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for,
from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties,
causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed
upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord (except to the extent that any
of the following result from Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct)
by reason of: (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or
damage to property occurring on or about the Collective Leased Properties or
adjoining sidewalks or rights of way, including, without limitation, any claims
of malpractice; (b) any past, present or future use, misuse, non-use, condition,
management, maintenance or repair by Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant of
the Collective Leased Properties or Tenant's Personal Property or any
litigation, proceeding or claim by governmental entities or other third parties
to which Landlord is made a party or participant relating to the Collective
Leased Properties or Tenant's Personal Property or such use, misuse, non-use,
condition, management, maintenance, or repair thereof including, failure to
perform obligations (other than Condemnation proceedings) to which Landlord is
made a party; (c) any Impositions (which are the obligations of Tenant to pay
pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement); and (d) any failure on
the part of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant to perform or comply with any
of the terms of this Agreement. Tenant shall pay all amounts payable under this
Section 9.7 within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor, and if not
timely paid, such amounts shall bear interest at the Overdue Rate from the date
of determination to the date of payment. Tenant, at its expense, shall contest,
resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted
against Landlord or may compromise or otherwise dispose of the same, with
Landlord's prior written consent (which consent may not be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned). The obligations of Tenant under this Section
9.7 are in addition to the obligations set forth in Section 4.4 and shall
survive the termination of this Agreement.

CASUALTY
--------
10.1 Insurance Proceeds. All proceeds payable by reason of any loss
or damage to the Collective Leased Properties, or any portion thereof, and
insured under any policy of insurance required by Article 9 (including, without
limitation, proceeds of any business interruption insurance) shall be paid
directly to Landlord (subject to the provisions of Section 10.2). If Tenant is
required to reconstruct or repair any of the Collective Leased Properties as
provided herein, such proceeds shall be paid out by Landlord from time to time
for the reasonable costs of reconstruction or repair of such Leased Property
necessitated by such damage or destruction, subject to the provisions of Section
10.2.4. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any excess
proceeds of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be
paid to Tenant. In the event that Section 10.2.1 below is applicable, the
insurance proceeds shall be retained by the party entitled thereto pursuant to
Section 10.2.1. All salvage resulting from any risk covered by insurance shall
belong to Landlord, except any salvage related to Tenant's Capital Additions and
Tenant's Personal Property shall belong to Tenant.
10.2 Damage or Destruction.
10.2.1 Damage or Destruction of Leased Property. If, during the
Term, any of the Collective Leased Properties shall be totally or partially
destroyed and the Facility located thereon is thereby rendered Unsuitable
for Its Primary Intended Use, Tenant shall, at its option, exercisable by
the giving of Notice thereof to Landlord within sixty (60) days after the
date of casualty, elect either (a) to purchase such Leased Property from
Landlord for a purchase price equal to the greater of (i) the Adjusted
Purchase Price of such Leased Property and (ii) the Fair Market Value
Purchase Price of such Leased Property immediately prior to such damage or
destruction, or (b) terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected
Leased Property. Failure by Tenant to give such Notice prior to the
expiration of such 60-day period shall be deemed an election by Tenant to
purchase such Leased Property in accordance with clause (a) preceding. In
the event Tenant elects to terminate this Agreement with respect to the
affected Leased Property, this Agreement shall, thereupon, terminate with
respect to the applicable Leased Property and Landlord shall be entitled to
retain the insurance proceeds payable on account of such damage. In the
event Tenant purchases such Leased Property as provided in this Section
10.2.1, the insurance proceeds payable on account of such damage shall be
paid to Tenant. If Tenant purchases the applicable Leased Property as
provided herein, the closing
<PAGE>
-48-
with respect thereto shall occur on a date designated by Landlord by Notice
to Tenant (but in no event prior to 30 days after such Notice), this
Agreement shall terminate as to the applicable Leased Property upon payment
of the purchase price therefor, and Landlord shall remit to Tenant all
insurance proceeds pertaining to the applicable Leased Property then held
by Landlord. Upon termination of this Agreement with respect to such Leased
Property as hereinabove provided, the Minimum Rent thereafter payable
hereunder shall be reduced by an amount reasonably determined by Landlord
in good faith to be that portion of the Minimum Rent allocable to such
Leased Property.
10.2.2 Partial Damage or Destruction. If, during the Term, any
of the Collective Leased Properties shall be totally or partially destroyed
but the Facility located thereon is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Primary
Intended Use, Tenant shall promptly restore such Facility as provided in
Section 10.2.4.
10.2.3 Insufficient Insurance Proceeds. If the cost of the
repair or restoration of the applicable Leased Property exceeds the amount
of insurance proceeds received by Landlord pursuant to Article 9, Tenant
shall contribute any excess amounts needed to restore such Leased Property.
Such difference shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord and held by Landlord,
together with any other insurance proceeds, for application to the cost of
repair and restoration.
10.2.4 Disbursement of Proceeds. In the event Tenant is
required to restore the applicable Leased Property pursuant to Section
10.2, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, commence promptly and
continue diligently to perform the repair and restoration of such Leased
Property (hereinafter called the "Work"), or shall cause the same to be
done, so as to restore such Leased Property in full compliance with all
Legal Requirements and so that such Leased Property shall be at least equal
in value and general utility to its general utility and value immediately
prior to such damage or destruction. Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord
shall advance the insurance proceeds (other than proceeds of business
interruption insurance which shall be advanced as provided below) and the
amounts paid to it pursuant to Section 10.2.3 to Tenant regularly during
the repair and restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of
any such restoration and repair. Any such advances shall be for not less
than $250,000 (or such lesser amount as equals the entire balance of the
repair and restoration) and Tenant shall submit to Landlord a written
requisition and substantiation therefor on AIA Forms G702 and G703 (or on
such other form or forms as may be acceptable to Landlord). Landlord may,
at its option, condition advancement of said insurance proceeds and other
<PAGE>
-49-
amounts on (a) the absence of any Default or Event of Default; (b) its
reasonable approval of plans and specifications of an architect reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord; (c) general contractors' estimates; (d)
architect's certificates; (e) unconditional lien waivers of general
contractors; (f) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and
other regulatory bodies whose approval is required; and (g) such other
certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require.
Proceeds of business interruption insurance shall be applied by Landlord to
the payment of all Minimum Rent, Additional Rent and Additional Charges
then due and payable and to become due and payable for the period for which
such proceeds have been paid by the insurance provider. Any excess shall,
provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, be disbursed
to Tenant. If an Event of Default has occurred, Landlord shall apply such
amounts to amounts due and owing under this Agreement and to the costs of
collection of the same and shall pay any excess to Tenant.
Landlord's obligation to disburse insurance proceeds under this
Article 10 shall be subject to the release of such proceeds by the
applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord.
Tenant's obligation to restore the applicable Leased Property
pursuant to this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of available
insurance proceeds by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord and by
Landlord to Tenant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
10.3 Damage Near End of Term. Notwithstanding any provisions of
Section 10.1 or 10.2 to the contrary, if damage to or destruction of any of the
Collective Leased Properties occurs during the last twenty-four (24) months of
the Term and if such damage or destruction cannot reasonably be expected to be
fully repaired and restored prior to the date that is twelve (12) months prior
to the end of such Term, the provisions of Section 10.2.1 shall apply as if such
Leased Property had been totally or partially destroyed and the Facility located
thereon rendered Unsuitable for its Primary Intended Use.
10.4 Tenant's Property. All insurance proceeds payable by reason of
any loss of or damage to any of Tenant's Personal Property or Tenant's Capital
Additions shall be paid to Tenant and, to the extent necessary to repair or
replace Tenant's Capital Additions or Tenant's Personal Property in accordance
with Section 10.5, Tenant shall hold such proceeds in trust to pay the cost of
repairing or replacing damaged Tenant's Personal Property or Tenant's Capital
Additions.
<PAGE>
-50-
10.5 Restoration of Tenant's Property. If Tenant is required to
restore the applicable Leased Property as hereinabove provided, Tenant shall
either (a) restore all alterations and improvements made by Tenant, Tenant's
Personal Property and all Tenant's Capital Additions, or (b) replace such
alterations and improvements, Tenant's Personal Property, and/or Tenant's
Capital Additions with improvements or items of the same or better quality and
utility in the operation of such Leased Property.
10.6 No Abatement of Rent. This Agreement shall remain in full force
and effect and Tenant's obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all
other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall, except as
otherwise provided in Section 10.2.1, remain unabated during the Term
notwithstanding any damage involving any of the Collective Leased Properties
(provided that Landlord shall credit against such payments any amounts paid to
Landlord as a consequence of such damage under any business interruption
insurance obtained by Tenant hereunder). The provisions of this Article 10
shall be considered an express agreement governing any cause of damage or
destruction to the applicable Leased Property and, to the maximum extent
permitted by law, no local or State statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance
in effect during the Term which provide for such a contingency shall have any
application in such case.
10.7 Waiver. Tenant hereby waives any statutory rights of
termination which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of any of the
Collective Leased Properties.
ARTICLE 11
----------
CONDEMNATION
------------
11.1 Total Condemnation, Etc. If either (a) the whole of any of the
Collective Leased Properties shall be taken by Condemnation or (b) a
Condemnation of less than the whole of any of the Collective Leased Properties
renders such Leased Property Unsuitable for Its Primary Intended Use, this
Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Leased Property, Tenant and
Landlord shall seek the Award for their interests in such Leased Property as
provided in Section 11.5 and the Minimum Rent thereafter payable shall be
reduced by an amount reasonably determined by Landlord in good faith to be that
portion of the Minimum Rent allocable to such Leased Property. If the Award
received by Landlord for Landlord's interest in such Leased Property is less
than the greater of (x) the Adjusted Purchase Price or (y) the Fair Market Value
Purchase Price of such Leased Property immediately prior to such Condemnation,
Tenant shall contribute and pay to Landlord the amount of such shortfall.
11.2 Partial Condemnation. In the event of a Condemnation of less
than the whole of any of the Collective Leased Properties such that such Leased
Property is still suitable for its Primary Intended Use, Tenant shall, at its
sole cost and expense,
<PAGE>
-51-
commence promptly and continue diligently to restore the untaken portion of the
Leased Improvements on such Leased Property so that such Leased Improvements
shall constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and
condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as the Leased
Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in full compliance
with all Legal Requirements. Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall
contribute to the cost of restoration that part of the Award necessary to
complete such repair or restoration, together with severance and other damages
awarded for the taken Leased Improvements, to Tenant regularly during the
restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of such repair or
restoration. Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of such Award
and other amounts on (a) the absence of any Event of Default; (b) its approval
of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (c) general
contractors' estimates; (d) architect's certificates; (e) unconditional lien
waivers of general contractors; (f) evidence of approval by all governmental
authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required; and (g) such
other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require.
Landlord's obligation under this Section 11.2 to disburse the Award and such
other amounts shall be subject to (x) the collection thereof by Landlord and (y)
the satisfaction of any applicable requirements of any Facility Mortgage, and
the release of such Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee. Tenant's
obligation to restore the applicable Leased Property shall be subject to the
release of the Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord and
Landlord's release of the Award to Tenant in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. If the cost of the restoration of the applicable Leased Property
exceeds that part of the Award necessary to complete such restoration, together
with severance and other damages awarded for the taken Leased Improvements,
Tenant shall contribute upon the demand of Landlord any excess amounts needed to
restore such Leased Property. Such difference shall be paid by Tenant to
Landlord and held by Landlord, together with such part of the Award and such
severance and other damages, for application to the cost of restoration.
11.3 Abatement of Rent. Other than as specifically provided in this
Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant's
obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when
required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term
notwithstanding any Condemnation involving the Collective Leased Properties.
The provisions of this Article 11 shall be considered an express agreement
governing any Condemnation involving any or all of the Collective Leased
Properties and, to the maximum extent permitted bylaw, no local or State
statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which
provides for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.
<PAGE>
-52-
11.4 Temporary Condemnation. In the event of any temporary
Condemnation of all or any part of the Collective Leased Properties or Tenant's
interest therein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, and
Tenant shall continue to pay, in the manner and on the terms herein specified,
the full amount of the Rent. Tenant shall continue to perform and observe all
of the other terms and conditions this Agreement on the part of the Tenant to be
performed and observed. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation
allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall
be paid to Tenant. Tenant shall, promptly upon the termination of any such
period of temporary Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore such
Leased Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such
Condemnation, in full compliance with all Legal Requirements, unless such period
of temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term, in
which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration. For purposes
of this Section 11.4, a Condemnation shall be deemed to be temporary if the
period of such Condemnation is not expected to, and does not, exceed twenty-four
(24) months.
11.5 Allocation of Award. Except as provided in the second sentence
of this Section 11.5, the total Award shall be solely the property of and
payable to Landlord. Any portion of the Award made for the taking of Tenant's
leasehold interest in the applicable Leased Property, Tenant's Capital
Additions, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, the taking of
Tenant's Personal Property, or Tenant's removal and relocation expenses shall be
the sole property of and payable to Tenant (subject to the provisions of Section
11.2). In any Condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its
own Award in conformity herewith, at its own expense.

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
---------------------
12.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the
following events shall constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder:
(a) should Tenant fail to make any payment of the Rent when due
and such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) Business Days
after the due date or should Tenant fail to pay any other sum (including,
but not limited to, payment of the purchase price for any of the Collective
Leased Properties which Tenant shall be obligated to purchase pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement) payable hereunder when due and such failure
shall continue for a period of five (5) Business Days after Notice thereof;
or
<PAGE>
-53-
(b) should Tenant shall fail to maintain the insurance coverages
required under Article 9; or
(c) should Tenant default in the due observance or performance
of any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained herein to be
performed or observed by it (other than as specified in clauses (a) and (b)
above) or should any Guarantor or any Permitted Subtenant default in the
due observance or performance of any of the terms, covenants or agreements
contained in any Incidental Document, and, in any such case, such default
shall continue for a period of fifteen (15) days after Notice thereof from
Landlord to Tenant (provided that no such notice shall be required if
Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to
protect person or property); provided, however, that if such default is
susceptible of cure but such cure cannot be accomplished with due diligence
within such period of time and if, in addition, Tenant, such Guarantor or
such Permitted Subtenant commences to cure such default within thirty (30)
days after Notice thereof from Landlord and thereafter prosecutes the
curing of such default with all due diligence, such period of time shall be
extended to such period of time (not to exceed an additional sixty (60)
days in the aggregate) as may be necessary to cure such default with all
due diligence; or
(d) should any obligation of Tenant or any of the Permitted
Subtenants, in respect of any Indebtedness for money borrowed or for the
deferred purchase price of any material property or services (excluding
trade accounts payable in the ordinary course of business on customary
trade terms) or any guaranty relating thereto, be declared to be or become
due and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof and any applicable
grace or notice period with respect thereto shall have lapsed, or should
there occur and be continuing with respect to any such Indebtedness or
deferred purchase price any default under any instrument or agreement
evidencing or securing the same, the effect of which is to permit the
holder or holders of such instrument or agreement or a trustee, agent or
other representative on behalf of such holder or holders, to cause such any
such obligations to become due prior to its stated maturity and any
applicable grace or notice period with respect thereto shall have lapsed
(provided that, in any such event, the same shall not be deemed an Event of
Default if Tenant or any Permitted Subtenant shall be contesting the same
in good faith and shall provide such security with respect thereto as
Landlord may reasonably require); or
(e) should any obligation of any Guarantor, in respect of any
Indebtedness for money borrowed or for the deferred purchase price of any
material property or services (excluding trade accounts payable in the
ordinary course of business on customary trade terms) or any guaranty
relating
<PAGE>
-54-
thereto, be declared to be or become due and payable prior to the stated
maturity thereof and any applicable grace or notice period with respect
thereto shall have lapsed, or should there occur and be continuing with
respect to any such Indebtedness or deferred purchase price any default
under any instrument or agreement evidencing or securing the same, the
effect of which is to permit the holder or holders of such instrument or
agreement or a trustee, agent or other representative on behalf of such
holder or holders, to cause such any such obligations to become due prior
to its stated maturity and any applicable grace or notice period with
respect thereto shall have lapsed and Landlord shall reasonably determine
such event may materially and adversely impact such Guarantor's ability to
perform its respective obligations under the Guaranty (provided that, in
any such event, the same shall not be deemed an Event of Default if such
Guarantor shall be contesting the same in good faith and shall provide such
security with respect thereto as Landlord may reasonably require); or
(f) should there occur a final unappealable determination by
applicable State authorities of the revocation or limitation of any
license, permit, certification or approval required for the lawful
operation of any of the Facilities in accordance with its Primary Intended
Use or the loss or limitation of any license, permit, certification or
approval under any other circumstances under which Tenant or any of the
Permitted Subtenants is required to cease its operation of such Facility in
accordance with its Primary Intended Use at the time of such loss or
limitation and such event or failure has a material adverse effect on the
use or operation of the applicable Leased Property or an adverse effect on
Total Revenues; or
(g) should any representation or warranty made by or on behalf
of Tenant, any Guarantor or any Permitted Subtenant under or in connection
with this Agreement, any Incidental Document, or in any document,
certificate or agreement delivered in connection herewith or therewith
prove to have been false or misleading in any material respect on the day
when made or deemed made; or
(h) should Tenant, any Guarantor or any Permitted Subtenant
generally not be paying its debts as they become due, or should Tenant, any
Guarantor or any Permitted Subtenant, make a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors; or
(i) should any petition be filed by or against Tenant, any
Guarantor or any Permitted Subtenant under the Federal bankruptcy laws, or
should any other proceeding be instituted by or against Tenant, any
Guarantor or any Permitted Subtenant seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or
<PAGE>
-55-
insolvent, or seeking liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment
or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of
an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or
other similar official for Tenant, such Guarantor or Permitted Subtenant,
or for any substantial part of the property of Tenant, such Guarantor or
Permitted Subtenant, and any such proceeding is not dismissed within ninety
(90) days after institution thereof, or should Tenant, such Guarantor or
Permitted Subtenant take any action to authorize or effect any of the
actions set forth above in this paragraph; or
(j) should Tenant, any Guarantor or any Permitted Subtenant any
proceeding for its dissolution or termination; or
(k) should Tenant or any of the Permitted Subtenants voluntarily
cease operation of any of the Collective Leased Properties for its Primary
Intended Use for a period in excess of thirty (30) consecutive days, except
as a result of damage, destruction or partial or complete Condemnation; or
(l) should a default shall occur under any mortgage which is
secured by Tenant's leasehold interest hereunder or the mortgagee under any
such mortgage accelerates the indebtedness secured thereby or commence a
foreclosure action in connection with said mortgage; or
(m) should the estate or interest of Tenant or any of the
Permitted Subtenants in any of the Collective Leased Properties or any part
thereof be levied upon or attached in any proceeding and the same shall not
be vacated or discharged within the later of (x) one hundred and twenty
(120) days after commencement thereof, unless the amount in dispute is less
than $10,000, in which case Tenant shall give notice to Landlord of the
dispute but Tenant may defend in any suitable way, and (y) thirty (30) days
after receipt by Tenant of Notice thereof from Landlord (unless Tenant
shall be contesting such lien or attachment in good faith in accordance
with Article 8); or
(n) should there occur any Change in Control of the Tenant, any
Guarantor or any of the Permitted Subtenants, except for any Change in
Control of Tenant as a result of the closing of the IPO, or as otherwise
permitted by Section 16.1; or
(o) should any default occur under the Permitted Subleases and
continue beyond the expiration of any applicable notice or cure period;
<PAGE>
-56-
then, and in any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies
available to it, may terminate this Agreement with respect to any or all of
the Collective Leased Properties by giving Notice thereof to Tenant and
upon the expiration of the time, if any, fixed in such Notice, this
Agreement shall terminate and all rights of Tenant under this Agreement
shall cease with respect to such of the Collective Leased Properties as
shall have been identified in such Notice. Landlord shall have and may
exercise all rights and remedies available at law and in equity to Landlord
as a result of Tenant's breach of this Agreement.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition
to any other remedies provided herein, subject to applicable law, enter upon the
Collective Leased Properties or any portion thereof and take possession of any
and all of Tenant's Personal Property and the Records (subject to any
prohibitions or limitations to disclosure of any such data as described in
Section 3.1.2(e)) on any such Leased Property, without liability for trespass or
conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such
taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the same at public or private sale,
after giving Tenant reasonable Notice of the time and place of any public or
private sale, at which sale Landlord or its assigns may purchase all or any
portion of Tenant's Personal Property unless otherwise prohibited by law.
Unless otherwise provided by law and without intending to exclude any other
manner of giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable Notice
shall be met if such Notice is given at least ten (10) days before the date of
sale. The proceeds from any such disposition, less all expenses incurred in
connection with the taking of possession, holding and selling of such property
(including, reasonable attorneys' fees) shall be applied as a credit against the
indebtedness which is secured by the security interest granted in Section 7.2.
Any surplus shall be paid to Tenant or as otherwise required by law and Tenant
shall pay any deficiency to Landlord, as Additional Charges, upon demand.
12.2 Remedies. None of (a) the termination of this Agreement with
respect to any or all of the Collective Leased Properties pursuant to Section
12.1; (b) the repossession of any or all of the Collective Leased Properties or
any portion thereof; (c) the failure of Landlord to re-let any or all of the
Collective Leased Properties or any portion thereof; nor (d) the reletting of
all or any of portion of the Collective Leased Properties, shall relieve Tenant
of its liability and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such
termination, repossession or re-letting. In the event of any such termination,
Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord all Rent due and payable with respect to
the any of the Collective Leased Properties as to which this Agreement is so
terminated through and including the date of such termination and, if this
Agreement shall be terminated with respect to less than all of the Collective
Leased Properties, the allocation of the Rent with
<PAGE>
-57-
respect to the Collective Leased Properties as to which this Agreement shall
have been terminated shall be made in such manner as Landlord, in Landlord's
sole and absolute discretion, shall determine. Thereafter, Tenant, until the
end of what would have been the Term of this Agreement in the absence of such
termination, and whether or not any of the Collective Leased Properties as to
which this Agreement is so terminated or any portion thereof shall have been re-
let, shall be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord, as current
damages, the Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder for the
remainder of the Term had such termination not occurred, less the net proceeds,
if any, of any re-letting of the applicable Leased Property, after deducting all
expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all
repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees,
advertising, expenses of employees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation
for such reletting, and, if this Agreement shall be terminated with respect to
less than all of the Collective Leased Properties, the allocation of the Rent
with respect to the Collective Leased Properties as to which this Agreement
shall have been terminated shall be made in such manner as Landlord, in
Landlord's reasonable discretion in good faith, shall determine. Tenant shall
pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Minimum
Rent would have been payable hereunder if this Agreement had not been so
terminated with respect to such of the Collective Leased Properties.
At any time after such termination, whether or not Landlord shall have
collected any such current damages, as liquidated final damages beyond the date
of such termination, at Landlord's election, Tenant shall pay to Landlord either
(a) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Rent and other charges which
would be payable hereunder from the date of such termination (assuming that, for
the purposes of this paragraph, annual payments by Tenant on account of
Impositions would be the same as payments required for the immediately preceding
twelve calendar months, or if less than twelve calendar months have expired
since the Commencement Date, the payments required for such lesser period
projected to an annual amount) for what would be the then unexpired term of this
Agreement if the same remained in effect, over the Fair Market Rental for the
same period, or (b) an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Rent and other
charges that would have been payable for the balance of the Term had it not been
terminated, and (ii) the aggregate of the Rent and other charges accrued in the
twelve (12) months ended next prior to such termination (without reduction for
any free rent or other concession or abatement); provided, however, that if this
Agreement shall have been terminated with respect to less than all of the
Collective Leased Properties, the allocation of the Rent with respect to the
Collective Leased Properties as to which this Agreement shall have been
terminated shall be made in such manner as Landlord, in Landlord's sole and
absolute discretion, shall determine. In the event this Agreement is so
terminated prior to the expiration of the first full year of the Term, the
<PAGE>
-58-
liquidated damages which Landlord may elect to recover pursuant to clause (b)
(ii) of this paragraph shall be calculated as if such termination had occurred
on the first anniversary of the Commencement Date. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and
obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency an amount equal to the
maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and
governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not
the amount be greater than, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or
damages referred to above.
In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration and
dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (a) relet any of
the Collective Leased Properties as to which this Agreement is so terminated or
any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a
term or terms which may at Landlord's option, be equal to, less than or exceed
the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and
may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers
advisable and necessary to relet the same, and (b) may make such reasonable
alterations, repairs and decorations in any applicable Leased Property or any
portion thereof as Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, in good faith,
considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting any such Leased
Property; and the making of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not
operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid.
Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for any failure to
relet all or any portion of the Collective Leased Properties, or, in the event
that any of the Collective Leased Properties is relet, for failure to collect
the rent under such reletting. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant
hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any
present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, or
in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of any of the Collective Leased
Properties, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and
conditions of this Agreement.
12.3 Tenant's Waiver. IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED WITH RESPECT
TO ANY OF THE COLLECTIVE LEASED PROPERTIES PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.1 OR 12.2,
TENANT WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN
THE EVENT OF SUMMARY PROCEEDINGS TO ENFORCE THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS
ARTICLE 12, AND THE BENEFIT OF ANY LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN FORCE EXEMPTING
PROPERTY FROM LIABILITY FOR RENT OR FOR DEBT.
12.4 Application of Funds. Any payments received by Landlord under
any of the provisions of this Agreement during the existence or continuance of
any Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to
the existence of any Event of Default) shall be applied to Tenant's obligations
under
<PAGE>
-59-
this Agreement in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be required by
applicable law.
12.5 Landlord's Right to Cure Tenant's Default. If an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord, after Notice to Tenant
(which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine in
good faith immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), without
waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without waiving or releasing
any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to), at any time
thereafter, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the
expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon
any of the Collective Leased Properties or any portion thereof for such purpose
and take all such action thereon as, in Landlord's reasonable discretion, in
good faith, may be necessary or appropriate therefor, including the management
of the Facility located thereon by Landlord or its designee, and Tenant hereby
irrevocably appoints, in the event of such election by Landlord, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Landlord or its
designee as manager of any such Facility and its attorney in fact for such
purpose, irrevocably and coupled with an interest, in the name, place and stead
of Tenant. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant. All reasonable
costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees)
incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to
the extent permitted by law) at the Overdue Rate from the date such sums are
paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.
12.6 Trade Names. If this Agreement is terminated with respect to
any of the Collective Leased Properties for any reason, Tenant shall not use a
Facility Trade Name in the same market in which the Facility located thereon is
located in connection with any business that competes with such Facility.
ARTICLE 13
----------
HOLDING OVER
------------
Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner termination
of this Agreement shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rate
equal to two (2) times the Minimum Rent and the Additional Rent then in effect
plus Additional Charges and other charges herein provided (prorated on a daily
basis). Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages (direct or indirect)
sustained by reason of any such holding over. Otherwise, such holding over shall
be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to the extent
applicable. Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express or
implied, of Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the expiration or
earlier termination of this Agreement.
<PAGE>
-60-
ARTICLE 14
----------
LANDLORD'S DEFAULT
------------------
If Landlord shall default in the performance or observance of any of
its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement and such default shall
continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Tenant to
Landlord and any applicable Facility Mortgagee, or such additional period as may
be reasonably required to correct the same, Tenant may declare the occurrence of
a "Landlord Default" by a second Notice to Landlord and to such Facility
Mortgagee. Thereafter, Tenant may forthwith cure the same and, subject to the
provisions of the following paragraph, invoice Landlord for costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) incurred by Tenant in
curing the same, together with interest thereon from the date Landlord receives
Tenant's invoice, at the Overdue Rate. Tenant shall have no right to terminate
this Agreement for any default by Landlord hereunder and no right, for any such
default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other charges due
hereunder.
If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord
Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall
give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis
therefor, no Landlord Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord
shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse determination
thereof. If Tenant and Landlord shall fail, in good faith, to resolve any such
dispute within ten (10) days after Landlord's Notice of dispute, either may
submit the matter for resolution to a court of competent jurisdiction.
ARTICLE 15
----------
PURCHASE OF LEASED PROPERTY
---------------------------
In the event Tenant shall purchase any of the Collective Leased
Properties from Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Landlord
shall, upon receipt from Tenant of the applicable purchase price, together with
full payment of any unpaid Rent and other charges due and payable with respect
to any period ending on or before the date of the purchase, deliver to Tenant an
appropriate deed or other instruments, conveying the entire interest of Landlord
in and to such Leased Property to Tenant, free and clear of all encumbrances
created through the act or omission of Landlord other than (i) Permitted
Encumbrances and such other liens, if any, which Tenant has agreed in writing to
accept and take title subject to, and (ii) encumbrances imposed on such Leased
Property under Section 5.5. The
<PAGE>
-61-
difference between the applicable purchase price and the total cost of
discharging the encumbrances described in clause (i) preceding shall be paid to
Landlord or as Landlord may direct, by wire transfer of immediately available
federal funds. Such Leased Property shall be conveyed to Tenant on an "as is"
basis and in its "as-is" physical condition. The closing of any such sale shall
be subject to all terms and conditions with respect thereto set forth in this
Agreement and shall, unless waived by Tenant, be contingent upon and subject to
Tenant's obtaining all required governmental consents and approvals for such
transfer. All expenses of such conveyance, including, without limitation, all
transfer and sales taxes, documentary fees, the fees and expenses of counsel to
Landlord and the cost of any title examination or title insurance, shall be paid
by Tenant.
ARTICLE 16
----------
SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT
-------------------------
16.1 Subletting and Assignment. Except as provided in the last
sentence of this paragraph and Section 16.3 below, Tenant shall not, without the
prior written consent of a majority of the Independent Trustees and a majority
of the Trustees, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise
transfer this Agreement or sublease (which term shall be deemed to include the
granting of concessions, licenses and the like), all or any part of the
Collective Leased Properties or suffer or permit this Agreement or the leasehold
estate created hereby or any other rights arising under this Agreement to be
assigned, transferred, mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated or encumbered, in whole
or in part, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, or permit
the use or occupancy of any of the Collective Leased Properties by anyone other
than Tenant, or any of the Collective Leased Properties to be offered or
advertised for assignment or subletting. For purposes of this Section 16.1, an
assignment of this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Change in Control of
Tenant (other than any Change in Control resulting from (x) the closing of the
IPO, (y) the trading of shares by the public on a nationally recognized
exchange, including, without limitation, NASDAQ, or (z) the issuance of
additional equity interests in Tenant or any Guarantor on commercially
reasonable terms) or any transaction pursuant to which Tenant is merged or
consolidated with another entity or pursuant to which all or substantially all
of Tenant's assets are transferred to any other entity, as if such change in
control or transaction were an assignment of this Agreement. Landlord's consent
shall not be required in connection with the transfer of all of the interests in
Tenant to Prime, provided that Prime shall, simultaneously therewith, execute
and deliver to Landlord a Stock Pledge and Security Agreement in the form of the
Stock Pledge Agreement.
<PAGE>
-62-
If this Agreement is assigned or if any of the Collective Leased
Properties or any part thereof are sublet (or occupied by anybody other than
Tenant or residents of the units at the Facilities) Landlord may collect the
rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply
the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such collection
shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of
this Section 16.1, the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or
occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the
future performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements or obligations
contained in this Agreement.
No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing
primary liability of Tenant hereunder, and no consent to any subletting or
assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the
prohibition set forth in this Section 16.1. No assignment, subletting or
occupancy shall affect any Primary Intended Use. Any subletting, assignment or
other transfer of Tenant's interest under this Agreement in contravention of
this Section 16.1 shall be voidable at Landlord's option.
16.2 Required Sublease Provisions. Any sublease of all or any
portion of any of the Collective Leased Properties (except to residents of the
units located at the Facilities) shall provide (a) that it is subject and
subordinate to this Agreement and to the matters to which this Agreement is or
shall be subject or subordinate; (b) that in the event of termination of this
Agreement or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this
Agreement, Landlord may, at its option, terminate such sublease or take over all
of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease,
and such subtenant shall, at Landlord's option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to
the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor
any Facility Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this
Agreement, if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for
any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any
credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such
subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous modification of such
sublease not consented to in writing by Landlord or by any previous prepayment
of more than one (1) month's Rent, (iv) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to
undertake or complete any construction of such Leased Property or any portion
thereof, (v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant
other than any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi)
be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any
credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for
under the sublease that are performed after the date
<PAGE>
-63-
of such attornment, (vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the
credit of such subtenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying
any portion of the Collective Leased Properties; and (c), in the event that such
subtenant receives a written Notice from Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee
stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant
shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease
directly to the party giving such Notice or as such party may direct. All
rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Facility Mortgagee, as
the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Tenant under
this Agreement and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder
shall, at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation
of such agreement to attorn. An original counterpart of each such sublease and
assignment and assumption, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or
assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and (a) in the case of an
assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep and perform
all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be kept and
performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally liable with Tenant for
the performance thereof and (b) in case of either an assignment or subletting,
Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for
the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of
the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder.
The provisions of this Section 16.2 shall not be deemed a waiver of
the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1.
16.3 Permitted Subleases. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject
to the provisions of Section 16.4 and any other express conditions or
limitations set forth herein, Tenant may enter into the Permitted Subleases and
third party residency agreements with respect to the units located at the
Facilities and may, in each instance after Notice to Landlord, sublease space at
any of the Collective Leased Properties for laundry, commissary or child care
purposes or other concessions in the ordinary course of business, so long as
such sublease will not reduce the number of units at the applicable Facility,
will not violate or affect any Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement, and
Tenant shall provide such additional insurance coverage applicable to the
activities to be conducted in such subleased space as Landlord and any Facility
Mortgagee may require.
16.4 Sublease Limitation. Anything contained in this Agreement to
the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet any of the Collective
Leased Properties on any basis such that the rental to be paid by any sublessee
thereunder would be
<PAGE>
-64-
based, in whole or in part, on either (a) the income or profits derived by the
business activities of such sublessee, or (b) any other formula such that any
portion of such sublease rental would fail to qualify as "rents from real
property" within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or
successor provision thereto.

APPRAISAL
---------
19.1 Appraisal Procedure. In the event that it becomes necessary to
determine the Fair Market Value of any of the Collective Leased Properties for
any purpose of this Agreement and the parties cannot agree thereon, such Fair
Market Value shall be determined upon the written demand of either party in
accordance with the following procedure.
The party requesting an appraisal, by Notice given within thirty (30)
days after the date of the event which requires or permits such procedure, shall
propose and unilaterally approve a Qualified Appraiser. The other party, by
Notice given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such Notice appointing
the first Qualified Appraiser, may appoint a second Qualified Appraiser. If the
other party fails to appoint the second Qualified Appraiser within such fifteen
(15) day period, such party shall have waived its right to appoint a Qualified
Appraiser, the first Qualified Appraiser shall appoint a second Qualified
Appraiser within fifteen (15) days thereafter and the Fair Market Value shall be
determined by the Qualified Appraisers as set forth below.
The two Qualified Appraisers shall thereupon endeavor to agree upon
the Fair Market Value. If the two Qualified Appraisers so named cannot agree
upon such value within thirty (30) days after the designation of the second such
appraiser, each such appraiser shall, within five (5) days after the expiration
of such thirty (30) day period, submit his appraisal of fair market value to the
other appraiser in writing, and if the fair market values set forth in such
appraisals vary by five percent (5%) or less of the greater value, the fair
market value shall be determined by calculating the average of the two fair
market values determined by the two appraisers.
If the fair market values set forth in the two appraisals vary by more
than five percent (5%) of the greater value, the two Qualified Appraisers shall
select a third Qualified Appraiser within an additional fifteen (15) days
following the expiration of the aforesaid five (5) day period. If the two
appraisers are unable to agree upon the appointment of a third appraiser within
such fifteen (15) day period, either party may, upon written notice to the
other, request that such appointment be made by the then President (or
equivalent officer) of the State's Chapter of the American Institute of Real
Estate Appraisers, or his or her designee or, if there is no such organization
or if such individual declines to make such appointment, by any state or Federal
court of competent jurisdiction for the State.
<PAGE>
-68-
In the event that all three of the appraisers cannot agree upon Fair
Market Value within twenty (20) days following the selection of the third
appraiser, each appraiser shall, within ten (10) days thereafter, submit his
appraisal of fair market value to the other two appraisers in writing, and the
fair market value shall be determined by calculating the average of the two
numerically closest values (or, if the values are equidistant, the average of
all three values) determined by the three appraisers.
In the event that any appraiser appointed hereunder does not or is
unable to perform his or her obligation hereunder, then the party or the
appraisers appointing such appraiser shall have the right to propose and approve
unilaterally a substitute Qualified Appraiser, but if the party or the
appraisers who have the right to appoint a substitute Qualified Appraiser fail
to do so within ten (10) days after written notice from the other party (or
either party in the event such appraiser was appointed by the other appraisers)
either party may, upon written notice to the party having the right to appoint a
substitute Qualified Appraiser, request that such appointment be made by such
officer of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers or court of
competent jurisdiction as described above; provided, however, that a party who
has the right to appoint an appraiser or a substitute appraiser shall have the
right to make such appointment only up until the time such appointment is made
by such officer or court.
In connection with the appraisal process, Tenant shall provide the
appraisers full access during normal business hours to examine the applicable
Leased Property, the books, records and files of Tenant and all agreements,
leases and other operating agreements relating to the applicable Leased
Property.
The costs (other than Landlord's counsel fees) of each such appraisal
shall be borne by Tenant and shall be included as part of the Additional
Charges. Upon determining such value, the appraisers shall promptly notify
Landlord and Tenant in writing of such determination. If any party shall fail
to appear at the hearings appointed by the appraisers, the appraisers may act in
the absence of such party.
The determination of the Qualified Appraisers made in accordance with
the foregoing provisions shall be final and binding upon the parties, such
determination may be entered as an award in arbitration in a court of competent
jurisdiction, and judgment thereon may be entered.
19.2 Landlord's Right to Appraisal. Landlord shall have the right,
exercisable twice at any time during the Term, to appoint a Qualified Appraiser
to perform a complete appraisal of
<PAGE>
-69-
any or all of the Collective Leased Properties, (each such appraisal to include
complete valuations of any such Leased Property based upon (a) the "Cost
Approach", (b) the "Market Approach" and (c) the "Income Approach"), which
appraisal shall meet all requirements of any state or Federal bank regulatory
authority that Landlord considers relevant or any Facility Mortgagee. The costs
of each such appraisal shall be borne by Tenant and shall be included as part of
the Additional Charges.

21.1 Landlord May Grant Liens. Without the consent of Tenant,
Landlord may, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section
21.1, from time to time, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause to
exist any lien, encumbrance or title retention agreement ("Encumbrance") upon
any of the Collective Leased Properties, or any portion thereof or interest
therein, whether to secure any borrowing or other means of financing or
refinancing. Any such Encumbrance shall include the right to prepay (whether or
not subject to a prepayment penalty) and shall provide (subject to Section 21.2
below) that it is subject to the rights of Tenant under this Agreement,
including the rights of Tenant to acquire the Collective Leased Properties
pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement.
21.2 Subordination of Lease. Subject to Section 21.1, this
Agreement, any and all rights of Tenant hereunder, are and shall be subject and
subordinate to any ground or master lease, and all renewals, extensions,
modifications and replacements thereof, and to all mortgages and deeds of trust,
which may now or hereafter affect the Collective Leased Properties, or any of
them, or any improvements thereon and/or any of such leases, whether or not such
mortgages or deeds of trust shall also cover other lands and/or buildings and/or
leases, to each and every advance made or hereafter to be made under such
mortgages and deeds of trust, and to all renewals, modifications, replacements
and extensions of such leases and such mortgages and deeds of trust and all
consolidations of such mortgages and deeds of trust. This section shall be
self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In
confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge
and deliver any instrument that Landlord, the lessor under any such lease or the
holder of any such mortgage or the trustee or beneficiary of any deed of trust
or any of their respective successors in interest may reasonably request to
evidence such subordination provided that such agreement does not amend or
modify this Agreement and includes customary non-disturbance and recognition
provisions. Any lease to which this Agreement is, at the time referred to,
subject and subordinate is herein called "Superior Lease" and the lessor of a
Superior Lease or its successor in interest at the time referred to, is herein
called "Superior Landlord" and any mortgage or deed of trust to which this
Agreement is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate, is herein called
"Superior Mortgage" and the holder, trustee or beneficiary of a Superior
Mortgage is herein called "Superior Mortgagee".

If any Superior Landlord or Superior Mortgagee or the nominee or
designee of any Superior Landlord or Superior Mortgagee shall succeed to the
rights of Landlord under this Agreement with respect to one or more of the
Collective Leased Properties, whether through possession or foreclosure action
or delivery of a new lease or deed, or otherwise, then at the request of such
party so succeeding to Landlord's rights (herein called "Successor Landlord")
and upon such Successor Landlord's written agreement to accept Tenant's
attornment, Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such Successor Landlord as
Tenant's landlord under this Agreement with respect to one or more of the
Collective Leased Properties, and shall promptly execute and deliver any
instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such
attornment provided that such agreement does not amend or modify this Agreement
and includes customary non-disturbance and recognition provisions. Upon such
attornment, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as a direct
lease between the Successor Landlord and Tenant upon all of the terms,
conditions and covenants as are set forth in this Agreement, except that the
Successor Landlord (unless formerly the landlord under this Agreement or its
nominee or designee) shall not be (a) liable in any way to Tenant for any act or
omission, neglect or default on the part of Landlord under this Agreement; (b)
responsible for any monies owing by or on deposit with Landlord to the credit of
Tenant; (c) subject to any counterclaim or setoff which theretofore accrued to
Tenant against Landlord; (d) bound by any modification of this Agreement
subsequent to such Superior Lease or Mortgage, or by any previous prepayment of
Minimum Rent or Additional Rent for more than one (1) month, which was not
approved in writing by the Superior Landlord or the Superior Mortgagee thereto;
(e) liable to Tenant beyond the Successor Landlord's interest in the applicable
Leased Property and the rents, income, receipts, revenues, issues and profits
issuing from such Leased Property; (f) responsible for the performance of any
work to be done by the Landlord under this Agreement to render the applicable
Leased Property ready for occupancy by Tenant; or (g) required to remove any
Person occupying the applicable Leased Property or any part thereof, except if
such person claims by, through or under the Successor Landlord. Tenant agrees
at any time and from time to time to execute a suitable instrument in
confirmation of Tenant's agreement to attorn, as aforesaid.
21.3 Notice to Mortgagee and Ground Landlord. Subsequent to the
receipt by Tenant of notice from any Person that it is a Facility Mortgagee, or
that it is the ground lessor under a lease with Landlord, as ground lessee,
which includes the applicable Leased Property as part of the demised premises,
no notice from Tenant to Landlord as to the applicable Leased Property shall be
effective unless and until a copy of the same is given to such Facility
Mortgagee or ground lessor, and the curing of any of
<PAGE>
-74-
Landlord's defaults by such Facility Mortgagee or ground lessor shall be treated
as performance by Landlord.

reasonable discretion in good faith. If Landlord shall cure any of Tenant's
defaults under any Management Agreement, the cost of such cure shall be payable
upon demand by Tenant to Landlord with interest accruing from the demand date at
the Overdue Rate and Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies for
failure to pay such costs on demand as for Tenant's failure to pay Minimum Rent.

MISCELLANEOUS
-------------
23.1 Limitation on Payment of Rent. All agreements between Landlord
and Tenant herein are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or
event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of Rent, or otherwise, shall
the Rent or any other amounts payable to Landlord under this Agreement exceed
the maximum permissible under applicable law, the benefit of which may be
asserted by Tenant as a defense, and if, from any circumstance whatsoever,
fulfillment of any provision of this Agreement, at the time performance of such
provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity
prescribed by law, or if from any circumstances Landlord should ever receive as
fulfillment of such provision such an excessive amount, then, ipso facto, the
amount which would be excessive shall be applied to the reduction of the
installment(s) of Minimum Rent next due and not to the payment of such excessive
amount. This provision shall control every other provision of this Agreement
and any other agreements between Landlord and Tenant.
23.2 No Waiver. No failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict
performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy
consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial payment
of Rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of
any such breach or of any such term. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no
waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Agreement, which shall continue
in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent
breach.
23.3 Remedies Cumulative. To the maximum extent permitted by law,
each legal, equitable or contractual right, power and remedy of Landlord, now or
hereafter provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise, shall be
cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power
and remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord of any one
or more of such rights, powers and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous
or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of such other rights, powers
and remedies.
23.4 Severability. Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or
provision of this Agreement held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid, illegal or ineffective shall not impair, invalidate or nullify the
remainder of this
<PAGE>
-79-
Agreement, but rather the effect thereof shall be confined to the clause,
sentence, paragraph, section or provision so held to be invalid, illegal or
ineffective, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal
or ineffective provisions had never been contained therein.
23.5 Acceptance of Surrender. No surrender to Landlord of this
Agreement or of any of the Collective Leased Properties or any part thereof, or
of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and
accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any representative or
agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall
constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.
23.6 No Merger of Title. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed
that it is the intent of the parties that there shall be no merger of this
Agreement or of the leasehold estate created hereby by reason of the fact that
the same Person may acquire, own or hold, directly or indirectly this Agreement
or the leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord's
interest in any of the Collective Leased Properties.
23.7 Conveyance by Landlord. If Landlord or any successor owner of
all or any portion of any of the Collective Leased Properties shall convey all
or any portion of the Collective Leased Properties in accordance with the terms
hereof other than as security for a debt, and the grantee or transferee of such
of the Collective Leased Properties shall expressly assume all obligations of
Landlord hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such
conveyance or transfer, Landlord or such successor owner, as the case may be,
shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations of
Landlord under this Agreement with respect to such of the Collective Leased
Properties arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or
other transfer and all such future liabilities and obligations shall thereupon
be binding upon the new owner.
23.8 Quiet Enjoyment. So long as Tenant shall pay the Rent as the
same becomes due and shall comply with all of the terms of this Agreement,
Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Collective Leased
Properties for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone
claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Encumbrance
permitted under Article 21 or otherwise permitted to be created by Landlord
hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of
Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith
and by proper proceedings, and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing
by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no failure by
Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant any right to
cancel or terminate this Agreement or
<PAGE>
-80-
abate, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other
sum payable under this Agreement, or to fail to perform any other obligation of
Tenant hereunder.
23.9 NON-LIABILITY OF TRUSTEES. THE DECLARATION, A COPY OF WHICH IS
DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF THE STATE OF
MARYLAND, PROVIDES THAT THE NAME "HEALTH AND RETIREMENT PROPERTIES TRUST" REFERS
TO THE TRUSTEES UNDER THE DECLARATION COLLECTIVELY AS TRUSTEES, BUT NOT
INDIVIDUALLY OR PERSONALLY, AND THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE
OR AGENT OF LANDLORD SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR
SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, LANDLORD. ALL PERSONS
DEALING WITH LANDLORD, IN ANY WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF LANDLORD FOR
THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION.
23.10 Landlord's Consent of Trustees. Where provision is made in
this Agreement for Landlord's consent and Landlord shall fail or refuse to give
such consent, Tenant shall not be entitled to any damages for any withholding by
Landlord of its consent, it being intended that Tenant's sole remedy shall be an
action for specific performance or injunction, and that such remedy shall be
available only in those cases where Landlord has expressly agreed in writing not
unreasonably to withhold its consent.
23.11 Memorandum of Lease. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record
this Agreement. However, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly, upon the request
of the other, enter into a short form memorandum of this Agreement, in form
suitable for recording under the laws of the State in which reference to this
Agreement, and all options contained herein, shall be made. Tenant shall pay all
costs and expenses of recording such memorandum.

hazardous and toxic waste tests and to otherwise determine the feasibility
(economic or otherwise) of the acquisition, ownership and development of the
Premises.
At any time during the Feasibility Period, Purchaser, in Purchaser's sole
and absolute discretion, may, upon written notice to Sellers, terminate this
Agreement, in which event, all of the rights, duties and obligations of the
parties hereto shall immediately terminate, and this Agreement shall be null,
void and of no further force or effect. If, in Purchaser's sole judgment and

earnings accrued thereon, to Purchaser.
In the event Purchaser does not notify Sellers in writing on or before the
end of the Feasibility Period of Purchaser's election to terminate this
Agreement, Purchaser shall purchase the Premises in accordance with and subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and all Earnest Money
shall be credited to Purchaser and applied toward Purchaser's obligations under

and representatives in connection with Purchaser's inspections, tests, surveys

housing facility. During the Feasibility Period, Purchaser shall deliver to
Sellers a proposed site plan and a conceptual exterior elevation drawing for
Sellers' review and approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld and

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations
of the parties under this Agreement are conditioned upon the negotiation and
agreement, prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period, of the reciprocal
easement and maintenance agreement discussed in Paragraphs 15A(7), 30(b), 30(c)
and 30(d) below.

Paragraph 9 below; and (b) general real estate taxes which are not yet due and
payable (hereinafter called the "Permitted Title Exceptions"). Unless expressly
agreed to by Purchaser in writing and in Purchaser's sole discretion, any title
exceptions pertaining to liens (except for any lien(s) caused by Purchaser) of a
definite or ascertainable amount ("Removable Liens") shall be removed by Sellers
by the payment of money on or before the date of Closing and shall not be
Permitted Title Exceptions hereunder.
5. Closing. When used herein, the term "Closing" shall mean the conveyance
of the Premises to Purchaser, the payment of the Purchase Price to Sellers and
the issuance to Purchaser of the title insurance policy described in Paragraph 8
below. Subject to the potential rescheduling of the Closing by Sellers (as
described below in this Paragraph 5), the Closing shall take place on or before
the thirtieth (30th) day after the Purchaser has received each and all of the
Approvals (defined below), provided that all conditions to Purchaser's
obligation to close under this Agreement (including, but not limited to, the
receipt by Purchaser of all Approvals described in Paragraph 14F hereof) have
been satisfied or waived in writing by Purchaser. Each party hereto shall be
responsible for paying the fees and expenses of its respective attorneys and
other advisors; the payment of any costs incurred in connection with the
Closing, other than those costs specifically designated in this Agreement as the
responsibility of a particular party, shall be shared equally by Sellers and
Purchaser.
If the Closing has not occurred by Friday, October 31, 1997, Sellers
may unilaterally defer the Closing to the first
-4-
<PAGE>
business day of 1998 by giving written notice thereof to Purchaser. In the
events that (a) Sellers choose to defer the Closing to the first business day of
1998, and (b) Purchaser wishes to commence construction activities on the Real
Estate during the months of November or December of 1997, Purchaser shall give
written notice to Sellers of Purchaser's desire to commence construction prior
to the Closing and Purchaser will attach the following documents to Purchaser's
notice: the certificate(s) of insurance obtained by Purchaser with respect to
the Real Estate and the proposed development thereof, indicating general
insurance coverage(s) of no less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) and
naming Sellers as additional insureds; Purchaser's financial statements; and a
letter addressed to Sellers whereby Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless Sellers with respect to Purchaser's pre-Closing construction activities
on the Real Estate, Purchaser's promise to remove any and all liens on the Real
Estate caused by Purchaser's action(s), and Purchaser's promise to restore the
Real Estate to its condition as of the Effective Date in the event that
Purchaser fails to close the purchase of the Premises for any reason other than
Sellers' default(s). If the form and substance of Purchaser's notice and
attachments are reasonably satisfactory to Sellers, Sellers shall promptly grant
Purchaser's request by giving written notice to Purchaser (which notice shall
include Sellers' grant of an appropriate consent, right and license to permit
Purchaser and its architects, contractors, sub-contractors, and others to
mobilize and commence activities on the Real Estate). In the event that
Purchaser elects to commence construction upon the Real Estate prior to the
Closing pursuant to this Paragraph 5, Purchaser shall be deemed to have
irrevocably waived all conditions (except for any default(s) by Sellers) to
Purchaser's obligations to close the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
6. Method of Closing. The Closing shall be a "New York style" closing,
pursuant to which the title insurance policy to be delivered to Purchaser
pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered at the Closing and shall be dated
as of the date of Closing.
7. Commitment, Searches and Survey. Not later than ten (10) days following
the Effective Date of this Agreement, Sellers (at Sellers' sole cost and
expense) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Purchaser, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser:
A. A commitment ("Commitment") to issue an ALTA owner's title insurance
policy for the Real Estate for the benefit of Purchaser, issued by the
Title Company in the amount of the Purchase Price covering title to the
Real Estate on or after the date hereof, showing good, marketable and
indefeasible fee simple title to the Real Estate in the Trusts. Sellers

B. Six (6) copies of an ALTA-ACSM Class A survey ("Survey") (including
field notes) with respect to the Real Estate and the Improvements, dated
and certified as of a date subsequent to the Effective Date of this
Agreement, prepared by a Public Surveyor registered by the State of
Illinois, setting forth the legal description of the Real Estate showing
the location of any improvements, and showing the size and location of all
easements, encroachments and encumbrances listed on the Commitment
(identifying each by volume and page reference, if applicable), reciting
the exact area of the Real Estate in acres and square feet, reciting the
exact area of each easement, encroachment and encumbrance, showing no
portion of the Real Estate situated in an area designated by the U.S.
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (or by any other governmental or
quasi-governmental agency or authority having jurisdiction over the Real
Estate) as a flood plain, special flood hazard area or general hazard area,
showing all visible utility lines upon the Real Estate, and indicating such
other information reasonably requested by Purchaser in writing prior to the
expiration of the Feasibility Period. The Survey shall meet the accuracy
requirements of an ALTA-ACSM Class A survey, and contain a certificate
specifically addressed to Purchaser, the Title Company and any other party
or parties designated by Purchaser reading as follows:
"The undersigned does hereby certify that (i) this survey was
this day made upon the ground of the property reflected hereon, for
the benefit of and reliance by Sellers, Purchaser, the Title Company
and all other parties listed above; (ii) the description contained
hereon is correct; (iii) the property and each parcel thereof has

property lying within public roadways shown hereon are correct; (vi)
none of the property lies within the 100-year flood plain or any
special flood hazard area or general hazard area as designated by any
governmental agency; and (vii) this survey satisfies the accuracy
requirements of an ALTA/ACSM Class A survey."
The Survey must be satisfactory to the Title Company so as to permit
it to delete the area and boundary exception in the Title Policy except for
"shortages in area."
-6-
<PAGE>
C. Searches, dated not more than one (1) week prior to delivery, of all
Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and tax liens related to the
Premises filed against Sellers, as debtors, with the appropriate public
official of the State of Illinois, the appropriate public official of
DuPage County, Illinois, or with any other governmental agency or authority
or in any public record (the "Searches").
If such Commitment, Survey or Searches are not delivered to Purchaser
within the specified time, then, without limiting other rights available to
Purchaser hereunder or under law, Purchaser may elect to terminate this
Agreement by written notice to Sellers and, thereupon, this Agreement shall
become null, void and of no further force or effect. In the alternative,
Purchaser may elect to extend the time for delivery of the above-described
items, and the time for delivery of the above-described items shall be deemed
extended unless and until Purchaser sends the written notice of termination.
8. Title Policy. Sellers, at Sellers' sole cost and expense, shall
deliver or cause the Title Company to deliver to Purchaser, prior to the
disbursement by the Title Company of the Purchase Price deposited by Purchaser
an ALTA owner's title insurance policy (the "Title Policy") with respect to the
Real Estate, in the amount of the Purchase Price, in a form reasonably
acceptable to Purchaser, issued by the Title Company pursuant to the Commitment
containing no exceptions other than the Permitted Title Exceptions and insuring
fee simple title to the Real Estate and improvements in Purchaser or Purchaser's
Nominee. The Title Policy shall provide extended coverage over the general
exceptions and include the following endorsements: (i) zoning, (ii) access,
(iii) contiguity, if appropriate, (iv) location and (v) such other endorsements
as reasonably requested by Purchaser; provided, however, that the costs of such
endorsements payable by Sellers shall not exceed the amount of Five Hundred
Dollars ($500.00).
9. Correction of Defects. If the Commitment, the Survey or the Searches
disclose exceptions to title or other matters not permitted hereunder or
otherwise objectionable to Purchaser, and Purchaser sends written notice to
Sellers objecting to such matters within fifteen (15) business days after the
date of Purchaser's receipt of the last of the Commitment, Survey and Searches,
then Sellers shall have fifteen (15) business days from delivery by Purchaser of
such notice in which to have such exceptions or other matters corrected, removed
or otherwise waived. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
the Feasibility Period shall not end before the day which is ten (10) business
days following the day on which Purchaser receives written evidence, reasonably
satisfactory to Purchaser, that such exceptions or other matters have been
corrected, removed or otherwise waived. If Purchaser does not receive written
evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, that such unpermitted exceptions
or other matters have been corrected, removed or otherwise waived to Purchaser's
reasonable satisfaction within the permitted time,
-7-
<PAGE>
Purchaser may elect, upon written notice delivered to Sellers within fifteen
(15) business days after the expiration of the time permitted for curing such
defects to terminate this Agreement, or to extend the time permitted for such
cure. Any extension or extensions of time permitted by this Paragraph shall not
affect any of Purchaser's rights under this Agreement.

14. Conditions to Purchaser's Obligation to Close. The obligations of
Purchaser to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to pay
the Purchaser Price are conditioned upon and subject to the satisfaction on or
before the date of Closing (or waiver by Purchaser) of each of the following
conditions:
A. Sellers shall have performed and complied with all agreements,
covenants and conditions to be performed or complied with prior to the date
of the Closing.
B. All of Sellers' representations and warranties set forth in this
Agreement shall be true and correct as of the date of the Closing.
C. Sellers shall have complied with all procedures reasonably required by
the Title Company or which are customary or appropriate in transactions
similar to the transactions contemplated hereby in connection with the
consummation of all transactions contemplated hereby.
D. The Title Company shall be prepared to issue the Title Policy in
accordance with this Agreement upon conveyance of the Premises to Purchaser
and payment of the Purchase Price to Sellers.
E. Sellers shall have delivered to Purchaser a copy of any "disclosure
document" required by any applicable state or federal law relating to
environmental matters, together with evidence, reasonably acceptable to
Purchaser, indicating that such document has been properly and timely
filed.
F. The Premises shall have been properly zoned, and Purchaser shall have
received all necessary and appropriate permits and approvals (to the extent
such permits and approvals can be issued based on the state of the
development of the Premises as of the date of the Closing) to permit the
development of a congregate-care and assisted-living senior housing
facility consisting of approximately 235 residential units on the Premises
and the operation thereof as contemplated by Purchaser. Such permits and
approvals shall include, but are not necessarily limited to, zoning
approvals, a resubdivision or other consolidation of the parcels that
comprise the Real Estate in connection with the planned unit
-15-
<PAGE>
development to be proposed by Purchaser, approvals of site plans, access
approval and approvals of the proposed curb cuts (collectively, the
"Approvals"). Purchaser shall have a period of one hundred twenty (120)
days following the expiration of the Feasibility Period to obtain the
Approvals, which period of time may be extended in six (6) increments of
thirty (30) days each at the election of the Purchaser (which extensions
will be granted by Sellers so long as Purchaser is diligently pursuing the
issuance of the Approvals); with respect to the first and second of such
extensions, if requested by Purchaser by written notice fifteen (15) days
in advance of each such extension, Purchaser shall not be required to make
any payment to Sellers; with respect to the third and fourth of such
extensions, if requested by Purchaser by written notice fifteen (15) days
in advance of each such extension (which notice shall be accompanied by
Purchaser's check), Purchaser shall pay to Sellers the amount of Ten
Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) apiece; with respect to the fifth and sixth
of such extensions, if requested by Purchaser by written notice fifteen
(15) days in advance of each such extension (which notice shall be
accompanied by Purchaser's check), Purchaser shall pay to Sellers the
amount of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) apiece; and Purchaser and
Sellers agree that any of such payments for the third, fourth, fifth and/or
sixth extensions shall be non-refundable but shall be credited against
Purchaser's obligations under Paragraph 15(B) below to deliver the balance
of the Purchase Price to Sellers at the Closing. Failure of the Purchaser
to serve written notice to Sellers with respect to any of the foregoing six
extension periods shall operate to immediately terminate Purchaser's right
to request any remaining extensions contemplated in this Paragraph 14(F).
In the events that (1) Purchaser does not obtain one or more of the
Approvals prior to the expiration of the sixth extension contemplated in this
Paragraph 14(F) and (2) Purchaser and Sellers have not mutually agreed to
further extend the period of time for Purchaser to obtain such Approval(s), then
Purchaser may, within five (5) business days following the expiration of such
sixth extension, give written notice to Sellers specifying Purchaser's failure
to obtain such Approval(s) and expressly terminating this Agreement as a result
thereof (the "Contingency Termination Notice"). In the event Purchaser serves a
Contingency Termination Notice upon Sellers in a timely fashion, this Agreement
shall thereupon terminate and be of no further force or effect, except to
Purchaser's obligations to restore the Premises to pre-inspection condition for
damage(s) that may have been caused by Purchaser during the Feasibility Period;
and Purchaser and Sellers shall promptly direct the Title Company to deliver to
Sellers the Earnest Money, together with all interest and earnings accrued
thereon, and Sellers shall retain any and all payments made by Purchaser to
Sellers pursuant to this Paragraph 14(F). The failure
-16-
<PAGE>
of Purchaser to timely serve a Contingency Termination Notice upon Sellers shall
constitute the irrevocable waiver by Purchaser of obtaining such Approval(s) as
a condition to Purchaser's obligation to close as contemplated in this Paragraph
14.
15. Provisions with Respect to Closing.

A. At the Closing, Sellers shall deliver to Purchaser the following, all

--------------------------------------
Adjustments shall be made between Sellers and Purchaser for the following items,
prorated on a per diem basis, as of midnight of the day preceding the date of
the Closing:
(1) Rents, residency fees and other charges paid under each lease relating
to the Premises, or any portion thereof, if any.
(2) Real estate, personal property and ad valorem taxes and other state or
city taxes, charges and assessments affecting the Premises, or any portion
thereof, not yet due and payable, shall be prorated on the basis of the
most recent fiscal year for which the same are levied or assessed;
provided, that if the amount of any such taxes, charges or assessments
shall not be fixed or ascertainable before the date of the Closing, the
adjustment thereof on the date of the Closing shall be upon the basis of
one hundred five percent (105%) of most recent ascertainable amount of such
taxes, charges and assessments. In the event any adjustment is made at the
Closing pursuant to the preceding sentence, there shall be a re-proration
of such tax, charge or assessment immediately upon receipt of the actual
bill therefor, and, within ten (10) days of the receipt of such bill,
Sellers shall pay Purchaser or Purchaser shall pay Sellers, as the case may
be, any amount due the other party as a result of such re-proration.
(3) Charges for water, electricity, sewer rental, gas, telephone and other
utilities for the Premises (normally billed to Sellers) will be paid by
Sellers on a per diem basis on the basis of the most recent available bills
(subject to readjustment on receipt of bills covering the period in which
the Closing occurs), provided that Sellers shall use its best efforts to
procure final meter readings of such utilities as of the date of the
Closing (if such reading is obtained, no proration of utilities shall be
necessary) and to have such bills rendered directly to Sellers (and Sellers
will deliver to Purchaser copies of any such bills rendered to Sellers
within five (5) days of Sellers' receipt thereof), if any. To the extent
deposits held on Sellers' behalf by utility companies are transferable to
Purchaser, Sellers shall receive a credit at Closing in the amount of such
-19-
<PAGE>
deposits and such deposits shall be transferred and placed in the name of
Purchaser. Otherwise, Sellers shall receive a refund of such deposits and
Purchaser shall have no claim with regard to the same.
(4) Charges under existing service contracts, if any, and other ordinary
costs and expenses for maintenance and protection of the Premises.
(5) Such additional adjustments as are normally made in connection with the
sale of property similar to the Premises in the county and state where the
Premises is located.
17. Condemnation. In the event that between the Effective Date of this
Agreement and the date of the Closing Sellers receive written notice that any
condemnation or eminent domain proceedings are threatened or initiated which
might result in the taking of any part of the Real Estate or any of the
Improvements, Purchaser may:
A. terminate this Agreement, in which event, the Earnest Money, together
with all interest accrued thereon, shall promptly be returned to Purchaser
and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall cease; or
B. consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in which
event Sellers shall assign to Purchaser all of Sellers' right, title and
interest in and to any award made in connection with such condemnation or
eminent domain proceedings.
Sellers shall immediately notify Purchaser in writing of the threat or the
occurrence of any condemnation or eminent domain proceedings. Purchaser shall
then notify Sellers within fifteen (15) days after the date of Purchaser's
receipt of Sellers' notice of such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings
whether Purchaser elects to exercise its right under Subparagraph A or B of this
Paragraph. In the event Purchaser receives written notice of the threat or
occurrence of such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings within fifteen
(15) days prior to the date of Closing, and Purchaser elects to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement within the time period provided
above, the date of the Closing shall be adjusted accordingly.
18. Remedies.
--------
A. If Sellers should breach any of their representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or in any other
agreement, instrument, certificate or other document delivered pursuant to
this Agreement or if Sellers should fail to consummate the sale contemplated
herein
-20-
<PAGE>
for any reason other than Purchaser's default, Purchaser may avail itself
of any and all rights and remedies at law or in equity, including, but not
limited to, the right to (1) cancel this Agreement and receive the prompt
return of the Earnest Money, together with all interest and earnings
accrued thereon; and/or (2) collect monetary damages from Sellers (which,
in the event that Purchaser pursues this remedy prior to the Closing, shall
be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Earnest Money
in the Escrow at the Title Company plus any and all payments made by
Purchaser to Sellers pursuant to Paragraph 14(F) above); and/or (3) enforce
specific performance of this Agreement. The exercise of (or failure to
exercise) any one of Purchaser's rights or remedies under this Agreement
shall not be deemed to be in lieu of, or a waiver of, any other right or
remedy contained herein or available to Purchaser at law or in equity.
B. If all of the conditions to Purchaser's obligations to purchase the
Premises have been satisfied or waived in writing by Purchaser and Sellers
are not in default of or under any of Sellers' agreements, covenants or
obligations hereunder and Purchaser should fail to consummate the purchase
contemplated hereby for any reasons other than Sellers' default, Sellers,
as Sellers' sole and exclusive remedy, may receive the Earnest Money,
together with all interest and earnings accrued thereon, and retain any and
all payments made by Purchaser to Sellers pursuant to Paragraph 14(F)
above, as full and final liquidated damages, Purchaser and Sellers hereby
acknowledging that, in the event of Purchaser's failure to consummate the
sale contemplated hereby, actual damages suffered by Sellers would be
difficult and/or inconvenient to determine or ascertain; and, thereafter,
there shall be no further liability hereunder on the part of either party
or the other party. If, after the Closing, Purchaser should breach any of
its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this
Agreement that pertain to the post-Closing period, Sellers may avail
themselves of any and all rights and remedies at law or in equity.

30. Post-Closing Co-operation. The following provisions shall survive the
Closing. Following the completion of the transactions otherwise contemplated in
this Agreement pertaining to the Real Estate, Purchaser and Sellers shall
thereafter co-operate with each other in good faith with respect to the
following specific matters, as well as with any additional matters reasonably
-24-
<PAGE>
requested by either party that does not cause material expense or inconvenience
to the other party.
(a) Purchaser shall use its best efforts to petition the relevant
government authorities to vacate, abandon and/or terminate the right of way
known as "Milton Avenue" on the Real Estate. In the events that Purchaser's
petition succeeds and that Purchaser subsequently wishes to convey, or grant an
easement pertaining to, the area of the Real Estate currently occupied by Milton
Avenue, then Sellers shall have a right of reverter with respect to the
easterly-half of Milton Avenue on the Real Estate.
(b) Subject to the reciprocal easement and maintenance agreement
mentioned in Paragraphs 3 and 15(A) above, an area of the Real Estate shall be
maintained by Purchaser, without obligating Purchaser to incur any material or
unreasonable expense, to accept storm water that may be generated from time to
time from the adjacent property currently owned by Sellers, consisting of
approximately four (4) acres and legally described on Exhibit C attached hereto
(the "Retained Property"). Any and all costs of site grading, surface and/or
subsurface routes, below-grade piping or other infrastructure necessary on the
Retained Property, and any oversizing or other adaptations of the pipes on the
Real Estate to enable access to, or connections with, the storm water management
system on the Real Estate shall be paid by Sellers. The initial costs of
constructing the detention pond on the Real Estate to manage the water to be
generated by the Real Estate will be paid by Purchaser; any marginal or
incremental increases in such costs that Purchaser may incur in order to
accommodate the water to be generated by the Retained Property shall be paid by
Sellers. The future costs of managing and maintaining, such storm water
detention system on the Real Estate shall be paid by Sellers and by Purchaser on
a pro rata basis determined by the amounts of water, to be estimated by a civil
engineering firm, that will be directed into such system by the Real Estate and
the Retained Property, respectively. All of the matters discussed in this
Paragraph 30(b), as well as those referenced in Paragraphs 30(c) and 30(d)
below, and easements for all related utilities, swales and other items
pertaining to the storm water management system will be governed by the
aforesaid reciprocal easement and maintenance agreement.
Unless Purchaser uses the civil engineering services of Lindley & Sons
to design such storm water management system, Sellers shall have the right to
review and approve the technical specifications of such system, such approval
not to be withheld unreasonably by Sellers.
(c) Subject to the provisions of the reciprocal easement and
maintenance agreement mentioned above, Purchaser shall co-operate with Sellers,
in a non-monetary fashion, with respect to Sellers' desire to develop the
Retained Property as a retail center, and Purchaser agrees that Sellers'
intention to maintain a landscaped buffer on the Retained Property, no fewer
than ten (10)
-25-
<PAGE>
feet wide and starting from the boundary between the Real Estate and the
Retained Property, is acceptable to Purchaser.
(d) Purchaser may, at Purchaser's option and expense, improve DuPage
Boulevard west of Nicoll Avenue for vehicular access. If Purchaser elects to
construct such vehicular access, then Purchaser shall cooperate in a non-
monetary fashion with Sellers' desire to construct additional public parking in
the DuPage Boulevard right of way. Subject to the provisions of the reciprocal
easement and maintenance agreement mentioned above, in the event that DuPage
Boulevard is vacated, Purchaser shall: construct a roadway that provides
vehicular access to Sellers' adjacent property; grant a temporary license to
Sellers to allow Sellers to construct parking on a portion of the vacated right
of way; a grant a perpetual, non-exclusive easement with respect to such roadway
and parking.
(e) Purchaser shall install an east-west sidewalk extension on or
from the Real Estate and that will intersect with Nicoll Avenue, unless
prohibited by the Village of Glen Ellyn, Illinois; and, if required by the
Village of Glen Ellyn, Illinois, Purchaser shall install a sidewalk on the Real
Estate along a portion of the Real Estate that is directly adjacent to Nicoll
Avenue.

REAL ESTATE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
------------------------------
THIS REAL ESTATE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered
into as of the 14th day of February, 1997, by and between THE PRIME GROUP, INC.,
an Illinois corporation ("Purchaser"), and AC PROPERTIES, L.L.C., a Michigan
limited liability company ("Seller").
In consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements, representations and
warranties set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Sale and Purchase.
Seller agrees to sell, convey and assign to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees
to purchase and accept under the terms and conditions and for the purchase price
set forth below, the following:
(A) That portion of the land marked "PG" situated in Southfield, Michigan
(the "City"), depicted on the preliminary site plan attached hereto as
EXHIBIT A, consisting of approximately six (6) acres, together with any
improvements located on such land, all of the rights, privileges, easements
and appurtenances belonging or appertaining to such land, including any
right, title and interest in and to streets, alleys and rights-of-way
adjacent to such land (such land and all such rights, privileges, easements
and appurtenances are collectively referred to herein as the "Real
Estate"). Purchaser acknowledges that Seller is in the process of
developing approximately sixty (60) acres of land adjacent to the Real
Estate (the "ACP Development").
(B) All tangible or intangible personal property or interest therein, if
any, now or hereafter owned or held by Seller to the extent used solely in
connection with the Real Estate (or any portion thereof) or solely in
connection with the ownership, operation, management or use thereof
(hereafter the "Personal Property"). Upon reasonable notice and at
reasonable times, Seller shall make all such tangible and intangible
property that is held by Seller and used for the ACP Development available
to Purchaser provided such items relate to the Real Estate. The Personal
Property shall exclude all items that relate to the ACP Development. The
ownership of any and all such tangible and intangible personal property
that relates to both the Real Estate and the ACP Development shall remain
the property of Seller to the extent it relates to the ACP Development and
shall become the
<PAGE>
property of Purchaser to the extent it solely relates to the Real Estate.
The Personal Property includes, but is not necessarily limited to, (i) all
licenses and other permits, approvals, applications, authorizations,
certificates, permissions, no action letters and similar assurances issued
by any private person or persons or by any governmental or quasi-
governmental authority or authorities to the extent relating solely to the
Real Estate, or any portion thereof, or the ownership, operation,
management or use thereof.
The Real Estate and the Personal Property are herein sometimes collectively
called the "Premises".
2. Purchase Price, Earnest Money.
A. The purchase price (the "Purchase Price") for the Premises shall be One
Million Seven Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand and no/100 Dollars
($1,775,000.00) payable at the Closing as provided in this Agreement,
subject to prorations and adjustments as set forth in this Agreement.
B. Within five (5) Business Days following the execution and delivery of
this Agreement by Purchaser and Seller, Purchaser shall deposit the sum of
Ten Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($10,000.00), as initial earnest money (the
"Initial Earnest Money") in an escrow ("Escrow") established with First
American Title Insurance Company (the "Title Company"). Within three (3)
Business Days following the expiration of the Feasibility Period (defined
below) provided this Agreement is not terminated in accordance with its
terms, Purchaser shall deposit in the Escrow the sum of Forty Thousand and
no/100 Dollars ($40,000.00), as additional earnest money (the "Additional
Earnest Money". The Initial Earnest Money, the Additional Earnest Money,
and any other earnest money deposited pursuant to this Agreement, to the
extent deposited in Escrow at the relevant time, and all accrued interest
and other earnings on such amounts, are sometimes referred to herein
together as the "Earnest Money". The Earnest Money shall be held by the
Title Company in accordance with escrow instructions substantially in the
form attached hereto as EXHIBIT B (the "Escrow Instructions"). The Earnest
Money shall be invested in a money market fund or in such other investment
instrument or account designated by Purchaser. At the Closing, the Earnest
Money shall be applied against the Purchase Price. In the event the
Closing does not occur and\or this Agreement is terminated for any reason
other than a Purchaser Default, the Earnest Money shall be returned to
Purchaser.
C. Seller has delivered to Purchaser (i) a copy of a title commitment for
a standard title insurance policy issued by the Title Company dated January
15, 1997 for the Real Estate and
-2-
<PAGE>
the "ACP Development", as hereafter defined (the "Prior Title Commitment"),
(ii) an ALTA Survey for the Real Estate and ACP Development (the "Prior
Survey") and (iii) a preliminary site plan for the Real Estate and the ACP
Development. Within three (3) days after the Effective Date, Seller will
provide Purchaser a computer disk containing information relative to the
regulated wetlands shown on the Property and the ACP Development. Seller
shall provide Purchaser with any information from the City's wetlands
consultant changing the scope of the regulated wetlands on the Real Estate
within three (3) days of Seller's receipt of such information. If any such
change in the configuration of the regulated wetlands has in Purchaser's
reasonable judgment a material adverse affect on development of Purchaser's
proposed project on the Real Estate, then Purchaser shall have the right
upon written notice to Seller to terminate this Agreement in which case the
Earnest Money shall be returned to Seller. Purchaser and Seller agree that
they have approved the preliminary site plan for the Real Estate (the
"Preliminary Site Plan") attached hereto as EXHIBIT A. Seller intends to
use the Preliminary Site Plan along with its site plan for the ACP
Development to develop a master site plan (the "Master Plan") for the
Property and the ACP Development Property.
D. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Earnest
Money shall be non-refundable to Purchaser in the event the Closing does
not occur because of a Purchaser Default after Purchaser has received the
Zoning Approvals specified in Paragraph 15(f) of this Agreement. Purchaser
shall be deemed to have been satisfied with the updated Commitment and
updated Survey unless objected to by Purchaser in writing pursuant to
Paragraph 10 of this Agreement.
3. Feasibility Period. This Agreement shall be contingent upon the
satisfactory inspection of the Premises by Purchaser, in its sole and absolute
discretion and judgment, during the period (the "Feasibility Period") commencing
on the date of Seller's execution and delivery to Purchaser of this Agreement,
and ending on the later of (i) the forty-fifth (45th) day after this Agreement
has been executed by, and a fully executed original copy has been delivered to,
both Seller and Purchaser (the "Effective Date") or (ii) the tenth (10) Business
Day after receipt by Purchaser of the last of the following:
(1) The updated Commitment (as defined below); and
(2) The updated Survey (as defined below).
During the Feasibility Period, Purchaser shall have the right to physically
inspect the condition of the Premises, to conduct various tests with respect to
the Premises, including, but not
-3-
<PAGE>
limited to, soil tests and environmental and hazardous and toxic waste tests and
to otherwise determine the feasibility (economic or otherwise) of the
acquisition, ownership and development of the Premises. Purchaser hereby agrees
to indemnify, protect and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all
claims, demands, losses, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees), damages,
expenses or liabilities caused by Purchaser's inspection of the Premises or by
tests conducted on the Real Estate by or on behalf of Purchaser. In the event
Purchaser does not purchase the Real Estate, Purchaser agrees to restore the
Real Estate to substantially the same condition as existed prior to any such
testing on the Real Estate by Purchaser or its agents. The foregoing
indemnification and restoration obligations of Purchaser shall survive the
termination of this Agreement until such restoration is complete, and Purchaser
agrees that in the event Purchaser does not purchase the Real Estate, Purchaser
shall complete any such restoration within ten (10) days after written demand
from Seller. At any time during the Feasibility Period, Purchaser, in
Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion, may, upon written notice to Seller,
terminate this Agreement, in which event, all of the rights, duties and
obligations of the parties hereto shall immediately terminate, and this
Agreement shall be null, void and of no further force or effect, and the Earnest
Money shall be returned to Purchaser. If, in Purchaser's sole judgment and
discretion, Purchaser decides that it does not wish to proceed with the
purchase, Purchaser shall give Seller written notice of such fact on or before
the end of the Feasibility Period. Seller, at no expense to Seller except as
provided in this Agreement, shall cooperate fully with Purchaser and Purchaser's
agents, employees and representatives in connection with Purchaser's
inspections, tests, surveys and studies of the Premises.
4. Infrastructure Improvements and Reciprocal Easement Agreement.
A. Seller and Purchaser agree that in connection with the development of
the ACP Development by Seller and the development of the Premises by
Purchaser, Seller shall construct certain infrastructure improvements (the
"Infrastructure Improvements") which will benefit both the ACP Development
and the Premises. The Infrastructure Improvements consist of (i) all road
improvements to that portion of Eleven Mile Road fronting, and in the
vicinity of, the Real Estate and the ACP Development, required by the City
in connection with the approval of Seller's Master Plan, (ii) the
mitigation on the ACP Development of certain regulated wetlands currently
existing on the Premises, (iii) construction of a common storm water
detention system (the "Detention System") on the ACP Development serving
both the Premises and the ACP Development, and (iv) to the extent Purchaser
decides not to, or is unable to, connect to any or all utility services
directly from Eleven Mile Road, the construction of common utility lines
and
-4-
<PAGE>
facilities (the "Utility Lines") over the ACP Development to serve both the
ACP Development and the Premises. Seller may provide for the ongoing
maintenance of the Infrastructure Improvements by forming a site
condominium and a non-profit condominium association affecting the ACP
Development. Purchaser and Seller shall share in the "Shared Costs" (as
defined below) of the installation of the Infrastructure Improvements
referred to in clauses (i), (iii) and (iv) above and not in clause (ii)
above (the "Shared Improvements"), and the Purchaser and Seller shall
equitably share in funding the cost of maintenance of the Shared
Improvements, pursuant to the terms and conditions of a development and
reciprocal easement or similar agreement (the "REA Agreement") as described
below. The term "Shared Costs" shall mean the direct out-of-pocket costs
paid by Seller to JCCI, as hereinafter defined, and to unaffiliated third
parties for (s) hard construction costs incurred in connection with the
physical installation of such Shared Improvements, (t) utility relocation
costs directly related to the Shared Improvements, (u) professional fees
for the design and engineering of the Shared Improvements and "as built"
drawings, (v) the cost of obtaining the applicable building and/or grading
permits, (w) inspection/review and bond fees paid to governmental
authorities, (x) engineering layout and staking fees and (z) quality
control testing fees. Shared Costs specifically do not include legal fees
or expenses, or other soft costs not listed in the foregoing definition of
Shared Costs. Seller shall have the right to use JCCI and any other
affiliate to do the work for any Shared Improvements, provided Seller (a)
notifies Purchaser in advance of the use of such affiliate (except for the
construction management by JCCI), (b) gets a minimum of three (3) bids for
any work under any major contract from independent contractors, (c) if a
bidding process is required, Seller's affiliate matches the lowest bid plus
five percent (5%) and (d) in any event, such contract price to be paid to
Seller's affiliate (including JCCI) is not materially higher than the
prevailing market rates of qualified independent contractors in the
Southfield, Michigan area. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that
Jonna Construction Company, Inc. ( "JCCI"), an affiliate of Seller, will be
acting as the construction manager for the construction of the Shared
Improvements, and that Seller shall not be required to solicit bids for
such services. However, the fees including general conditions charges as
described on EXHIBIT C attached hereto) payable to JCCI for such services
may not exceed an amount which is normal and customary in the Detroit
metropolitan area. The Shared Costs of the Shared Improvements shall be
shared by Seller and Purchaser on a pro-rata basis, based on the Net Usable
Acres of the Real Estate and the ACP Development. "Net Usable Acres" shall
mean the total gross acreage of a parcel less the area of any (i) roadways
(but not parking areas), (ii) regulated wetlands and
-5-
<PAGE>
(iii) stormwater detention and sedimentation areas. The Net Usable Acres of
the Real Estate shall be based on the final site plan as described in
Paragraph 15(F) below and the Net Usable Acres of the ACP Development will
be based on the final approved Master Plan. The allocation and payment of
costs, and a more detailed definition of the Net Usable Acres, shall be
included in the REA Agreement. If Seller is required to establish a
Completion Escrow (as defined below) for completion of the Shared
Improvements, then Purchaser shall at the same time contribute to the
Completion Escrow Purchaser's share of the anticipated costs, and any
excess contributed by Purchaser shall be returned to Purchaser once the
final Development Costs are known. Seller shall be entitled to draw, with
Purchaser's approval of each draw (or pursuant to another mechanism agreed
to by Purchaser and Seller), on the Completion Escrow for the costs of the
Shared Improvements on a construction loan draw basis. A "construction loan
basis" means that (i) Seller shall be obligated to provide appropriate
sworn owner's and contractors' statements, architect's or engineer's
certificates, and partial (or in the event of the final draw, final)
unconditional lien waivers for the previous draw, (ii) Seller and Purchaser
must first fund their relevant shares of any cost overuns in the
Development Costs prior to drawing on the Completion Escrow (although a
failure by Purchaser to fund shall not prevent a draw by Seller if Seller
has funded its share) and (iii) such draws may not occur more frequently
than monthly. Seller must complete the Shared Improvements lien free and
must immediately obtain the release of, or bond over to Purchaser's and
Purchaser's lender's satisfaction, any mechanics' or materialmens' liens
which are recorded against the Real Estate in connection with Seller's
work. Seller shall not be allowed to draw on the Completion Escrow while
any mechanics' or materialmens' liens are filed against the Real Estate in
connection with Seller's work which have not been released, or insured or
bonded over to Purchaser and Purchaser's lender's satisfaction, except to
the extent Seller has otherwise complied with its obligations under this
Paragraph 4(A) and simultaneously with such draw, any such mechanics' or
materialmens' liens are released or are insured over or bonded over as
described above. Except as agreed to by the parties in the REA Agreement,
Seller agrees that any "notice of commencement" filed by Seller in
connection with the Shared Improvements shall have a legal description
which does not include the Real Estate. Seller may request that Purchaser
include on the Premises any of the Detention System or Utility Lines so
that they are free-standing to support solely the project contemplated for
the Premises, which request shall be subject to Purchaser's approval, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In addition,
Purchaser shall have the right (i) unilaterally in Purchaser's sole
discretion, to include on the Premises any of the Utility
-6-
<PAGE>
Lines and (ii) with Seller's consent which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, to include on the Premises any of the Detention
System, so that such facilities serve solely the project contemplated for
the Premises. In either case, Purchaser shall not be required to pay Seller
for Development Costs relating to any such Detention System or Utility
Lines which are instead, pursuant to the foregoing, placed on the Premises.
In such event, any such Detention System or Utility Lines to be placed on
the Premises shall then be at the sole cost and expense of Purchaser,
without the obligation on the part of Seller to install or pay for same.
Seller and Purchaser agree that instead of providing for an allocation of
the Shared Costs as described above, Seller and Purchaser may decide to
agree on a stipulated sum for, and/or a cap on, Purchaser's share of the
Development Costs, in which case, the parties may agree that the REA
Agreement shall stipulate that certain of the requirements contained in
this Agreement (such as competitive bids, etc...) need not apply.
B. Seller shall prepare and deliver a draft of the REA Agreement to
Purchaser at least five (5) Business Days prior to the expiration of the
Feasibility Period. If the REA Agreement is not delivered by such date, the
Feasibility Period shall automatically be extended to the date which is
five (5) Business Days after the delivery by Seller of the REA Agreement to
Purchaser. Purchaser shall have the right after Purchaser's receipt of the
REA Agreement to negotiate any changes it determines to be appropriate with
Seller in order to finalize the REA Agreement in a form satisfactory to
Seller and Purchaser. Seller agrees to negotiate in good faith with
Purchaser, and promptly prepare revised drafts of the REA Agreement.
Purchaser and Seller agree to diligently work together in good faith and be
reasonable in their negotiations in order to attempt to finalize the REA
Agreement on or before the date which is thirty (30) days after Purchaser's
receipt of the first draft of the REA Agreement. The finalization of the
REA Agreement shall remain a condition precedent to Purchaser's obligation
to purchase the Premises and in the event the REA Agreement has not been
finalized in a form acceptable to both Purchaser and Seller within such
thirty (30) day period, then both Seller and Purchaser shall each have the
right to terminate this Agreement at any time after the expiration of such
thirty (30) day period and prior to the date the form of the REA Agreement
has been finalized and agreed to in writing by Purchaser and Seller.
C. Seller agrees, and the REA Agreement shall further provide, that (i) all
plans and specifications, for the construction of the Shared Improvements,
and all modifications to such plans and specifications, and (ii) all
budgets for the
-7-
<PAGE>
Development Costs and any modifications to such budgets, shall be subject
to the advance written approval of Purchaser, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Seller agrees to provide to Purchaser
simultaneously with the delivery of the REA Agreement, a line item budget
estimating each major component and the total amount of the Development
Costs for the Shared Improvements (the "Budget"), which budget shall be
subject to Purchaser's written approval as part of the REA Agreement
approval process, which approval shall not unreasonably withheld or
delayed. When the Infrastructure Improvements have been completed and
accepted by and/or properly bonded to ("Accepted") all applicable
governmental authorities and utility companies, Seller shall provide
Purchaser with evidence reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (including but
not necessarily limited to sworn owner's and contractor's statements,
architect's and/or engineer's certificates, and lien waivers) (i)
substantiating the total amount of the Development Costs incurred by Seller
in connection with the construction of such Infrastructure Improvements and
(ii) proving that all such Development Costs have been paid by Seller and
that the Infrastructure Improvements have been completed and Accepted lien
free. If the Infrastructure Improvements are not completed and Accepted
lien free prior to the date of Closing, Purchaser shall have the right at
Closing to escrow a portion of the Purchase Price equal to Seller's share
of the estimated Shared Costs (less any Shared Costs previously paid for by
Seller) pursuant to the Budget in a strict joint order escrow (the
"Completion Escrow") with the Title Company, to secure Seller's obligation
to complete the Infrastructure Improvements. The Project Engineer (as
defined below) shall resolve any disputes between Seller and Purchaser
concerning the percentage completion of the Shared Improvements at any one
time. The "Project Engineer" shall be a licensed third-party engineer
unaffiliated with Seller or JCCI who is certifying the percentage
completion of the Shared Improvements. Purchaser shall contribute its share
of the Shared Costs to the Completion Escrow at the same time as Seller.
The escrow instructions for such Completion Escrow shall be in form and
substance reasonably specified by Purchaser and Seller during the
Feasibility Period. The funds in the Completion Escrow shall be released to
Seller no more than monthly on a construction loan basis. If the Closing
occurs on or before July 1, 1997, Seller shall complete the Infrastructure
Improvements lien free and have them Accepted on or before December 31,
1997. If the Closing occurs after July 1, 1997, Seller shall complete the
Infrastructure Improvements and have them Accepted within six (6) months of
Closing; provided however, that the period from November 15, 1997 to March
15, 1998 shall be excluded in calculating the six (6) months. Funds in the
Completion Escrow in excess of Purchaser's share deposited by Purchaser
shall be returned to Purchaser. If (i)
-8-
<PAGE>
the Infrastructure Improvements are not completed lien free and Accepted by
the foregoing dates, (ii) Seller has not commenced the construction of all
of the Shared Improvements in earnest within thirty (30) days after Closing
or (iii) Seller commences construction of the Infrastructure Improvements
in earnest within thirty (30) days after Closing but work on any or all of
the Shared Improvements ceases for more than thirty (30) consecutive days
or is not being diligently pursued by Seller on a schedule necessary in
Purchaser's reasonable discretion to meet the completion deadlines referred
to above, then, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Seller,
Purchaser shall have the right to (i) complete, in Purchaser's discretion,
all or any portion of the Infrastructure Improvements and cause them to be
Accepted, and (ii) draw all of the costs of completing such Infrastructure
Improvements from the Completion Escrow. Purchaser shall be entitled to
draw from the Completion Escrow monthly on a construction draw basis as the
Infrastructure Improvements are constructed provided the Purchaser shall
not be obligated as a condition to drawing on the Completion Escrow to (i)
fund any budget shortfall or (ii) obtain the releases of, or insure or bond
over, any liens related to Seller's construction of the Infrastructure
Improvements. Any excess amounts in the Completion Escrow shall be paid to
Seller and/or Purchaser based on their respective shares of the costs of
constructing the Shared Improvements. The REA Agreement shall include
temporary construction easements granting Purchaser access over the ACP
Development for the purpose of constructing the Infrastructure Improvements
if Seller does not. In addition, any mortgagee or other person or entity
holding any lien on the ACP Premises shall, at the Closing, sign the REA
Agreement for the purpose of subordinating its lien to Purchaser's rights
under the REA Agreement. Prior to the recording of the REA Agreement,
Seller agrees that it shall include in any documentation with any future
holder of a lien on all or any portion of the ACP Development a covenant
requiring such holder to so subordinate its lien to the REA Agreement.
D. In addition, the REA Agreement shall contain a restrictive covenant
affecting that portion of the ACP Development adjacent to the Premises
identified as the "Adjacent Property" on the Site Plan (the "Adjacent
Property"). The restrictive covenant shall list certain prohibited uses for
the Adjacent Property, but no such prohibited uses shall include uses
allowed under the current R-C (Regional Center District) zoning, including
those with a special use permit or variance (but not including variances as
to the actual use). The Adjacent Property may not be used for any of the
uses referred to in such restrictive covenant unless Purchaser grants its
prior written consent to Seller. Seller acknowledges that Purchaser intends
to develop the
-9-
<PAGE>
Premises as a senior and assisted living facility for elderly residents and
that it is important to Purchaser that the Adjacent Property not be used in
a manner which, in Purchaser's reasonable discretion, is not harmonious (in
an aesthetic and functional sense) with such a senior and assisted living
facility.
E. As a condition precedent to the Closing, (a) Seller must have obtained,
and must deliver copies to Purchaser of (i) wetlands mitigation permits,
(ii) wetlands crossing permits necessary for Purchaser's access road to
Eleven Mile Road and utility wetlands crossing permits for the Real Estate
(which wetlands crossing permits are specifically Seller's obligation to
obtain) and (iii) all permits relating to the stormwater Detention System,
or (b) Seller must have demonstrated to Purchaser's satisfaction that any
such permits and approvals not yet obtained will be obtained in a timely
manner. If Seller has not complied with the requirements of this Paragraph
4E by Closing, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
and all Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.
F. The Real Estate shall be subject to a restrictive covenant to be placed
in the REA Agreement which provides that the initial development of the
Real Estate may only be for a senior and assisted living facility or such
other initial use consented to in writing by the Seller. Such restrictive
covenant shall in no way prohibit Purchaser from changing in the future the
use of the Real Estate after the development and opening of such senior
and/or assisted living facility. Any such change, other than uses permitted
under the current R-C (Regional Center District) Zoning, including those
uses permitted pursuant to a special use permit, shall require the Seller's
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
G. Purchaser shall not have the right under the REA Agreement to restrict
any future use of the ACP Development, except for a violation of the
restrictive covenant on the Adjacent Property. The foregoing shall in no
way affect Purchaser's rights independent of the REA Agreement. For
example, Purchaser shall have the right to object to a proposed rezoning of
any portion of the ACP Development at a City Board or Zoning Committee
meeting and proceed against a nuisance or illegal use on the ACP
Development. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser agrees that Purchaser
will not object to any use permitted under the current R-C zoning and any
special use permits or variances (other than a use variance) requested by
Seller under the current R-C (Regional Center District) zoning on any
portions of the ACP Development, other than the Adjacent Property as
described in Paragraph 4(D) above.
-10-
<PAGE>
H. If required by the City or any applicable public utility company, and
provided Seller gives written notice to Purchaser of any such required
easements promptly after Seller becomes aware of such requirement but in no
event less than thirty (30) days prior to Closing, Seller shall have the
right to retain easements for utilities on the Real Estate and ingress and
egress easements through (i) the northern portion of the Real Estate in
order for the ACP Development to have emergency access to Eleven Mile Road
from the ACP Development southern border across the service road on the
Real Estate exiting to Eleven Mile Road, (ii) only if Seller is prohibited
from getting a separate curb cut on Eleven Mile Road despite its good faith
reasonable efforts to do, the access drive located at the western border of
the Real Estate to enable the Adjacent Property to have access for ingress
and egress to the access drive to the Real Estate off of Eleven Mile Road,
and (iii) for a new emergency vehicle road if needed for the ACP
Development, but the exact location and terms and conditions of any such
easements shall be subject to the written approval of Purchaser. If any
such easements would materially interfere with the development or operation
of Purchaser's project on the Real Estate, Purchaser and Seller shall
mutually seek alternatives for such easements and in the event that within
thirty (30) days of Seller's request for such easements, Seller or
Purchaser is not reasonably satisfied with any such proposed alternatives,
Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and obtain the
return of the Earnest Money. Purchaser shall have the right, subject to
City approval, to erect chains or gated barriers at any such emergency
access points.
5. Conveyance; Permitted Title Exceptions. Conveyance of the Real Estate
shall be by a general warranty deed delivered to Purchaser, or to a person or
entity designated by Purchaser ("Purchaser's Nominee"), in recordable form,
conveying to Purchaser or Purchaser's Nominee good, marketable and indefeasible
fee simple title to the Real Estate, subject only to (a) easements, covenants,
conditions and restrictions of record as revealed in the Commitment (defined
below) and not objected to in writing by Purchaser within the time period
described in Paragraph 10; and (b) general real estate taxes which are not yet
due and payable (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Permitted Title
Exceptions"). Unless expressly agreed to by Purchaser in writing, in its sole
discretion, any title exceptions pertaining to liens or encumbrances of a
definite or ascertainable amount ("Removable Liens") shall be removed by Seller
by the payment of money on or before the date of Closing and shall not be
Permitted Title Exceptions hereunder.
6. Closing. When used herein the term "Closing" shall mean the
conveyance of the Premises to Purchaser, the payment of the Purchase Price to
Seller and the issuance to Purchaser of the title
-11-
<PAGE>
insurance policy described in Paragraph 9. The Closing shall take place on or
before the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt by Purchaser of all of the Zoning
Approvals described in Paragraph 15F hereof; provided, however, that all other
conditions to Purchaser's obligation to close under this Agreement have been
satisfied and provided that in no event shall Purchaser be required to close
prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period.
7. Method of Closing. The Closing shall be pursuant to "New York style"
closing, pursuant to which the title insurance policy to be delivered to
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered at the Closing and shall
be dated as of the date of Closing or pursuant to an escrow arrangement under
which the Title Company issues to Purchaser a "marked-up" original of the
Commitment, reflecting that all requirements of the Commitment have been
fulfilled or waived and eliminating the "gap exception", the standard ALTA
exceptions and all other exceptions other than the Permitted Title Exceptions
and extending the effective date of the coverage through the recording of the
deed of conveyance to Purchaser.
8. Commitment and Survey. Within fifteen (15) days after the Effective
Date, Seller, at Seller's sole cost and expense, shall deliver or cause to be
delivered to Purchaser, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Purchaser:
A. An updated title commitment ("Commitment") to issue an ALTA owner's
title insurance policy for the Real Estate for the benefit of Purchaser,
issued by the Title Company in the amount of the Purchase Price covering
title to the Real Estate on or after the date hereof, showing good,
marketable and indefeasible fee simple title to the Real Estate in the
Seller. Seller shall also deliver to Purchaser, together with the
Commitment, a copy of all documents of record and all exceptions to title
to the Real Estate as indicated in the Commitment.
B. Six (6) copies of an updated ALTA-ACSM Class A "boundary" survey
("Survey") (including field notes) with respect to the Real Estate and any
improvements thereon, dated and certified as of a date subsequent to the
date of this Agreement, prepared by a public surveyor registered by the
State of Michigan, setting forth the legal description of the Real Estate,
showing the location of any improvements, and showing the size and location
of all easements, encroachments and encumbrances listed on the Commitment
(identifying each by liber and page reference, if applicable), reciting the
exact area of the Real Estate in acres and square feet, reciting the exact

The Survey must be satisfactory to the Title Company so as to permit
it to delete the area and boundary exception in the Title Policy except for
"shortages in area."
If such Commitments or Survey are not delivered to Purchaser within the
specified time, then, without limiting other rights available to Purchaser
hereunder or under law, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement by
written notice to Seller and, thereupon, this Agreement shall become null, void
and of no further force or effect, and the Earnest Money, together with all
interest and earnings accrued thereof, shall immediately be returned to
Purchaser. In the alternative, Purchaser may elect to extend the time for
delivery of the above-described items by up to a maximum of an additional thirty

the Real Estate, in the amount of the Purchase Price, in a form reasonably
acceptable to Purchaser, issued by the Title Company pursuant to the Commitment

pay for the costs of such endorsements up to a maximum of One Thousand Dollars
($1,000.00) and Purchaser shall pay for any costs above such amount.
10. Correction of Defects. If the Commitment, the Survey or the Searches
disclose exceptions to title or other matters which are not permitted hereunder
or which are otherwise objectionable to Purchaser, and Purchaser sends written
notice to Seller objecting to such matters within ten (10) Business Days after
the date of Purchaser's receipt of the last of the Commitment and Survey, then
Seller shall have ten (10) Business Days from delivery by Purchaser of such
notice in which to have such exceptions or other matters corrected, removed or
otherwise waived. The Feasibility Periods shall be extended for such period;
provided, however, the Feasibility Period shall not end before the day which is
ten (10) Business Days following the day on which Purchaser receives written
evidence, that such exceptions or other matters have been corrected, removed or

notice delivered to Seller within fifteen (15) Business Days after the
expiration of the time permitted for curing such defects or after receipt of

such cure. Any extension or extensions of time permitted by this Paragraph
shall not affect any of Purchaser's rights under this Agreement.

conditions:
A. Seller shall have performed and complied with all agreements, covenants
and conditions to be performed or complied with prior to and/or on the date
of the Closing.
B. All of Seller's representations and warranties set forth in this
Agreement shall be true and correct as of the date of the Closing.
C. Seller shall have complied with all procedures reasonably required by
the Title Company or which are customary or appropriate in transactions
similar to the transactions contemplated hereby in connection with the
consummation of all transactions contemplated hereby.
D. The Title Company shall be prepared to issue the Title Policy in
accordance with this Agreement upon conveyance of the Premises to Purchaser
and payment of the Purchase Price to Seller.
E. Seller shall have delivered to Purchaser a copy of any "disclosure
document" required to be delivered by Seller by any applicable state or
federal law relating to environmental matters, together with evidence,
reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, indicating that such document has been
properly and timely filed.
F. The Premises shall have been properly zoned, and Purchaser shall have
received final site plan approval from all applicable governmental
authorities exercising jurisdiction over the site plan for the Real Estate
(not including building permits) to permit the development of a senior and
assisted living facility on the Premises and the operation thereof as
contemplated by Purchaser (collectively, the "Zoning Approvals"). Such
Zoning Approvals shall include
-22-
<PAGE>
zoning approvals, approvals of the final site plan, and final approval by
the City and preliminary approvals by the County of the proposed curb cut
for the access road to Eleven Mile Road. The Zoning Approvals received by
Purchaser must be without any material conditions attached or modifications

Approvals by the "Zoning Deadline" (as defined below) or (y) Seller has not
obtained the final approval by the City of the "Master Plan" (as defined
below) by the date which is two hundred and ten (210) days after the
Effective Date, then both Seller and Purchaser shall each have the right at
any time after the occurrence of such Zoning Deadline and prior to the
receipt of the Zoning Approvals and final approval of the Master Plan, to
terminate this Agreement, in which case the Earnest Money shall be returned
to Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the approval of the Master
Plan shall not be a condition to Purchaser's obligation to close and the
parties shall not be able to terminate this Agreement because of the
failure of the Master Plan to be approved if (i) Purchaser is able to
obtain its Zoning Approvals and will be able to develop and operate its
facility notwithstanding the failure of Seller to obtain Master Plan
approval and (ii) if Seller is able to obtain prior to Closing all of the
permits and approvals referred to in Paragraph 4(E) of this Agreement. The
term "Zoning Deadline" shall mean the date which is one hundred and twenty
(120) days after the expiration of the Feasibility Period; provided,
however that Purchaser shall have the right to extend the Zoning Deadline
for up to two (2) additional thirty (30) day periods (for a maximum of up
to sixty (60) days) upon written notice to Seller and the deposit by
Purchaser prior to the then scheduled Zoning Deadline into the escrow of an
additional ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) of Earnest Money for each such
extension. Purchaser shall have the right, upon written notice to Seller,
to further extend the Zoning Deadline an additional thirty (30) days after
the final expiration date specified by the foregoing sentence, provided
that Purchaser deposits prior to the then scheduled Zoning Deadline an
additional Thirty Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($30,000.00) of Earnest Money
into the Escrow, at which time all of the Earnest Money shall become non-
refundable to Purchaser except in the event of a Seller Default or as
otherwise provided in this Agreement. If Purchaser closes the transaction,
Purchaser shall receive credit of the Earnest Money against the Purchase
Price; however, if Purchaser does not close, except in the event of a
Seller Default or as otherwise provided in this Agreement, then as Seller's
sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement, at law and in equity, the
Earnest Money shall be paid to Seller as full and final liquidated damages
and in full termination of Purchaser's rights to the Premises, it being
agreed to by the
-23-
<PAGE>
parties that Seller's actual damages would be difficult or impossible to
accurately ascertain.
G. From and after the Effective Date and through to the Closing, there
will be no unrecorded liens or encumbrances (including, but not limited to,
liens relating to environmental matters) against the Premises or any
portion thereof, other than those arising from the actions of Purchaser.

any portion of the Purchase Price under the provisions of such Act;
(4) the Title Policy in the form required under Paragraph 9;
(5) a certificate executed by Seller to the effect that the
representations and warranties made by Seller to Purchaser are true

the cost of recording any instruments of conveyance or instruments securing

Purchaser and Seller.

bills covering the period in

which the Closing occurs), provided that Seller shall use its best
efforts to procure final meter readings of such utilities as of the
date of the Closing (if such reading is obtained, no proration of
utilities shall be necessary) and to have such bills rendered directly
to Seller (Seller will deliver to Purchaser copies of any such bills
rendered to Seller within five (5) days of Seller's receipt thereof).
To the extent deposits held on Seller's behalf by utility companies
are transferable to Purchaser, Seller shall receive a credit at
Closing in the amount of such deposits and such deposits shall be
transferred and placed in the name of Purchaser. Otherwise, Seller

waived by Purchaser, and such Additional Exceptions and Survey Objections (other
than those constituting third party liens, security interests or other monetary
encumbrances that would be reflected on Schedule C of the Title Commitment)
shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions. Seller shall use good faith,
commercially reasonable efforts to cure the Title Objections, and may use all or
any part of the total purchase price for the purpose of discharging and

exception to the Title Objections. If, however, Seller determines in good faith

subject thereto or to terminate this Contract, in which latter event the Escrow

liability hereunder. In the event Purchaser fails to timely notify Seller of its
election, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived such Title Objections.

8. Adjustments at Closing. The following prorations and adjustments shall
be made at the Closing and, as the case may be, deducted from or added to the
amount Purchaser is required to pay at the Closing under paragraph 2.b of this
Contract:
a. Taxes. Ad valorem real estate taxes for the year of Closing shall
be prorated at the date of Closing and shall be assumed by Purchaser. If the tax
rate has not been fixed for that year, the apportionment of taxes shall be upon
the basis of the tax rate for the next preceding year applied to the latest
assessed valuation. Taxes attributable to the tax year of the Closing shall be
assumed by Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Real Property has
not been subdivided from the real property of Seller constituting the tax parcel
of which the Real Property is a part (the "Tax Parcel") as of January 1 of the
year in which the Closing occurs, and Seller is unable to obtain separate tax
statements for that year as to the Real Property alone, then Purchaser and
Seller shall each pay their respective proportionate shares (on the basis of
land square footage) of the ad valorem taxes for the year in which the Closing
occurs with respect to the Tax Parcel (including Purchaser's payment of the
amount of the credit applied at the Closing on account of the proration of such
taxes) directly to the appropriate taxing authorities prior to delinquency;
provided, however, if any portion of the Tax Parcel contains any improvements
thereon, the party owning the real property on which any such improvements are
situated shall be responsible for the payment of the ad valorem taxes
attributable to such improvements. Seller and Purchaser agree to indemnify and
hold the other harmless from and
12
<PAGE>
against any liability or liens in connection with any ad valorem taxes
applicable to the Tax Parcel and not timely paid by the indemnifying party
pursuant to the foregoing. In the event either party fails to pay its
proportionate share of any ad valorem taxes levied against the Tax Parcel and a
tax lien is asserted against the Tax Parcel on account of such failure to pay
those taxes, the other party shall have the right (but not the obligation) to
pay and discharge such taxes and tax liens (including any penalties and
interest), and the non-paying party shall reimburse the other party for all
amounts so paid by the non-paying party upon the non-paying party's written
confirmation of such payment.
b. Title Insurance and Other Closing Expenses. Except as is
otherwise provided herein, each party shall pay its own customary closing
expenses and its own attorney's fees. Seller shall pay the premium for the
Owner Policy of Title Insurance Seller agrees to provide under paragraph 5
above, one-half of the escrow fee charged by the Title Company and all recording
fees (other than for liens created by Purchaser at Closing). Purchaser shall
pay one-half of the escrow fee charged by the Title Company and the recording
fees for any liens created by Purchaser at Closing.
9. Remedies Upon Default.
---------------------
a. Seller's Default. If, for any reason except Purchaser's default
under the terms of this Contract or an express condition to Seller's obligations
hereunder, Seller either (i) fails to complete this sale in accordance with the
terms and provisions of this Contract or (ii) fails to perform timely any of its
obligations under this Contract and such failure continues for period of ten
(10) days after being provided written notice from Purchaser of such failure,
then, in either case, Purchaser shall have, as Purchaser's sole and exclusive
remedy against Seller under this Contract, at law and in equity, the option of
either (i) terminating this Contract by giving written notice to Seller at or
prior to the Closing, whereupon the Escrow Deposit shall be returned to
Purchaser by the Title Company and Seller shall pay Purchaser, as full and
final liquidated damages (it being agreed that Purchaser's actual damages would
be substantial but would be difficult or impossible to accurately ascertain),
(a) $100,000.00 plus (b) an additional amount, not to exceed $100,000.00, equal
to those out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred by Purchaser in connection
with the subject matter of this Contract which exceed $100,000.00 (provided that
Purchaser can verify, with written documentation, such expenses and costs),
after which Purchaser and Seller shall have no other or further liability or
obligation to each other except those obligations that expressly survive the
termination of this Contract, or (ii) enforcing specific performance of this
Contract.
b. Purchaser's Default. If Purchaser fails to complete this sale in
accordance with the terms and provisions of this Contract for any reason except
Seller's default under the terms of this Contract or an express condition to
Purchaser's obligations hereunder, Seller shall have the right, as its sole and
exclusive remedy against Purchaser under this Contract, at law and in equity, to
terminate this Contract by giving notice to Purchaser and to the Title Company,
whereupon the Escrow Deposit shall immediately be delivered by the Title Company
to Seller and Purchaser shall pay immediately to Seller, as full and final
liquidated damages (it being agreed that it would be extremely difficult, if not
impossible, to calculate the actual damages to Seller), (a) the amount equal to
$100,000.00 minus the Escrow Deposit that is to be delivered to Seller
hereunder, plus (b) an additional amount, not to exceed $100,000.00, equal to
those
13
<PAGE>
out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred by Seller in connection with the
subject matter of this Contract which exceed $100,000.00 (provided that Seller
can verify, with written documentation, such expenses and costs), after which
Purchaser and Seller shall have no other or further liability or obligation to
each other hereunder, except those obligations that expressly survive the
termination of this Contract.
c. Waiver; Attorneys' Fees. The requirements imposed upon Seller in
this Contract are for the Purchaser's benefit, and those requirements or other
provisions for the Purchaser's benefit may be waived in writing by Purchaser.
Likewise, the requirements imposed upon Purchaser in this Contract are for the
Seller's benefit, and those requirements or other provisions for the Seller's
benefit may be waived in writing by Seller. If it shall be necessary for either
Purchaser or Seller to employ an attorney to enforce its rights pursuant to this
Contract (or defend any such enforcement action), the prevailing party shall
reimburse the non-prevailing party for court costs and reasonable attorneys'
fees (which amounts shall be in addition to the liquidated damages provided
under paragraphs 9.a and 9.b).
10. Subdivision and Site Development Permit.
a. Seller shall, at Seller's sole cost and expense, use good faith
and diligent efforts to obtain: (i) from the City of Austin, the Texas Natural
Resources Conservation Commission and any other applicable governmental
authorities (collectively, the "Authorities"), as may be applicable, (a) final

Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions for Gains Ranch PUD dated May 8, 1995,

property owners association created, existing or appointed pursuant to the terms
of the Declaration, any and all approvals or consents that may be required under
the terms and provisions of the Declaration with respect to the construction and
operation of the Facilities and its related improvements. On or before the
expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall provide to Seller (a) a
site plan for the land reflecting the footprint for the Facilities and
containing the estimated gross building area and number of residential units
intended to be constructed on the Real Property by Purchaser and (b) such other
information reasonably requested by Seller. Utilizing such site plan and other
information, Seller shall cause the preparation of all engineering plans and
specifications and other relevant documentation required for the submittal to
the applicable Governmental Authorities of an application for the Site
Development Permit (such engineering plans and specifications, together with the
site plan provided by Purchaser and other relevant documentation prepared by
Seller hereunder, the "Plans") and shall, within forty-five (45) days after
Seller's receipt from Purchaser of the site plan and other information, provide
a copy of the Plans to Purchaser for its approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld (it being understood that Purchaser is the party who will
be ultimately constructing, owning and operating the Facilities and,
accordingly, that Purchaser's good faith determination of the contents of the
Plans shall be dispositive if not in violation of rules, regulations, codes or
ordinances applicable to the development of the Real Property). Purchaser shall,
within twenty
14
<PAGE>
(20) days of its receipt of the Plans from Seller, approve the Plans or make
reasonable modifications thereto and return them to Seller. If Purchaser fails
to respond within such 20-day period, Seller shall provide written notice to
Purchaser requesting a written response to the Plans within five (5) business
days after Purchaser's receipt of such written notice. If Purchaser fails to
respond timely to such written notice, Purchaser's approval shall be deemed
given. If Purchaser's response requests reasonable modifications to the Plans
that do not violate applicable governmental codes or ordinances, Seller shall,
within ten (10) days of its receipt of such request, modify the Plans to
incorporate such requested modifications and provide Purchaser a copy of the
Plans so modified. Purchaser shall promptly review such modified Plans and
either approve them or provide Seller with additional modifications and the
specific reasons therefor. If Purchaser requests additional modifications to the
Plans, Seller and Purchaser shall thereafter diligently and in good faith work
with one another until the Plans are approved by Purchaser; provided, however,
if the parties are unable to arrive at mutually acceptable Plans within thirty
(30) days after Seller's receipt of Purchaser's initial requested modifications,
Seller or Purchaser may terminate this Contract on written notice to the other,
whereupon the Escrow Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties
shall have no further obligation or liability to one another hereunder (except
for those obligations or liabilities which expressly survive the termination of
this Contract). Once the Plans are finally approved by the parties, Seller
shall, within ten (10) days after such final approval, submit to the applicable
Governmental Authorities an application for the issuance of the Site Development
Permit based on the Plans. Seller's obligations hereunder to acquire the
Resubdivision and the Site Development Permit shall be satisfied only upon
Seller's receipt of the Resubdivision and a Site Development Permit subject only
to those conditions or restrictions reasonably acceptable to Purchaser.
b. For purposes of paragraph 2 above, the aggregate gross building
area permitted to be constructed on the Real Property pursuant to the Site
Development Permit issued by the City of Austin (excluding any building area
constituting basement) shall be the "Building Square Feet."
c. If Seller is unable to obtain the Resubdivision (including final
execution and recording of the plat therefor) or Site Development Permit within
sixty (60) days after the last date that Seller has submitted an application
therefor (such resulting date, the "Due Date"), then Seller shall, within three
(3) business days after the expiration of such Due Date, notify Purchaser in
writing of such failure, which notice shall contain (i) Seller's determination
as to why such Resubdivision and/or Site Development Permit have not been
obtained and (ii) the estimated additional time necessary (if any) for Seller to
obtain such Resubdivision and/or Site Development Permit. Purchaser shall have
five (5) business days after its receipt of such notice to elect, at its option
and by written notice to Seller, to (x) grant Seller an additional ninety (90)
days, measured from the date of the expiration of the original Due Date, to
obtain such Resubdivision and/or Site Development Permit (such additional time
period, a "Seller Extension"), (y) exercise self-help and attempt to obtain such
Resubdivision and/or Site Development Permit itself, in which case Seller shall
immediately deliver all relevant documentation relating to such Resubdivision
and Site Development Permit to Purchaser and Purchaser shall have ninety (90)
days from the expiration of such original Due Date to obtain such Resubdivision
and/or Site Development Permit (such additional time period, a "Purchaser
Extension"), or (z) terminate this Contract upon fifteen (15) days' written
notice to Seller, after which time this Contract shall terminate and the Escrow
Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser.
15
<PAGE>
If Purchaser fails to timely exercise any of the foregoing elections, Purchaser
shall be deemed to have elected the option set forth in clause (x) above.
(1) Seller Extension. In the event Purchaser elects to grant to
Seller a Seller Extension pursuant to clause (x) of paragraph 10.c above,
and Seller does not obtain such Resubdivision and/or Site Development
Permit by such Due Date, as extended, then Seller shall provide Purchaser,
within three (3) business days after the expiration of such extended Due
Date, written notice thereof containing the same information referred to
above. Purchaser shall have five (5) business days after its receipt of
such second notice to elect, at its option and by written notice to Seller,
to (a) grant Seller an additional thirty (30) day extension, measured from
the expiration of the prior Seller Extension, to obtain such Resubdivision
and/or Site Development Permit, (b) exercise self-help and attempt to
obtain such Resubdivision and/or Site Development Permit itself, in which
case Seller shall immediately deliver all relevant documentation relating
to such Resubdivision and Site Development Permit to Purchaser and
Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days from the expiration of such Due Date,
extended, to obtain such Resubdivision and/or Site Development Permit, or
(c) terminate this Contract by written notice to Seller, whereupon this
Contract shall terminate and the Escrow Deposit shall be returned to
Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to timely exercise any of the foregoing
elections, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected the option set forth
in clause (a) hereof.
(2) Purchaser Extension. In the event Purchaser elects to grant
to a Purchaser Extension pursuant to clause (y) of paragraph 10.c above,
and Purchaser does not obtain such Resubdivision and/or Site Development
Permit by such Due Date, as extended, then Purchaser shall provide Seller,
within three (3) business days after the expiration of such extended Due
Date, written notice thereof which shall contain (i) the same information
required of Seller above and (ii) notice of Purchaser's election to either
(a) continue exercising self-help for an additional thirty (30) day period,
measured from the expiration of the prior Purchaser Extension, to obtain
such Resubdivision and/or Site Development Permit, or (b) terminate this
Contract, whereupon this Contract shall terminate and the Escrow Deposit
shall be returned to Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to timely exercise any
of the foregoing elections, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected the
option set forth in clause (a) hereof.
(3) Termination. In the event Purchaser elects to terminate this
Contract pursuant to clause (z) of paragraph 10.c above, this Contract
shall terminate upon the expiration of such fifteen (15) days notice and
the parties shall have no further liability or obligation to one another
hereunder (except for those obligations or liabilities that expressly
survive the termination of this Contract); provided, however, if Seller
obtains both the Resubdivision and the Site Development Permit within such
15-day period, Purchaser's termination notice shall be rendered void, and
the Contract shall continue in full force and effect.
In the event Resubdivision and/or the Site Development Permit has been
pursued by either party pursuant to the granting of a 30-day extension under
either subparagraphs (1) or (2) of this paragraph 10.c, as may be appropriate,
if either Resubdivision or the Site
16
<PAGE>
Development Permit is not obtained by such party prior to the expiration of such
30-day extension, then either party may thereafter (but prior to the date the
Resubdivision and the Site Development Permit are obtained) elect to terminate
this Contract upon written notice to the other, whereupon the Escrow Deposit
shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties shall have no further liability
or obligation to one another hereunder (except for those obligations or
liabilities that expressly survive the termination of this Contract).
d. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph 10,
Purchaser shall have the right, at any time by written notice to Seller, to
waive Seller's obligation to obtain Resubdivision and/or the Site Development
Permit as a condition to Closing, in which case, subject to the other terms and
conditions of this Contract, the parties shall proceed to close on the
transactions contemplated under this Contract within fifteen (15) business days
after the date of Purchaser's notice to Seller waiving such conditions.
e. Purchaser and Seller agree that, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Contract, they shall cooperate in good faith with one another
in connection with the application and acquisition of any approvals, licenses or
permits contemplated hereunder and shall provide to one another, upon request
therefor, such information as may be reasonably requested with respect to the
status of the Resubdivision, the Site Development Permit and any other
approvals, licenses or permits contemplated under this Contract.
11. Nature of Facilities. The "Facilities" (herein so called) shall
consist of a congregate care facility, not to exceed sixty (60) feet in height,
containing approximately 194,000 to 210,000 gross square feet of building area
and approximately 11,000 gross square feet or less of basement area, and other
related site improvements, all conforming substantially to the Site Plan.
12. Reciprocal Easements and Restrictive Covenants. At the Closing, Seller
and Purchaser shall enter into one or more agreements, each in form and
substance mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and Seller in their reasonable
discretion, granting (i) any reciprocal drainage and detention easements and
utility easements as may be reasonably necessary in the development of the Real
Property or of the Tax Parcel (including, without limitation, such easements
across and under the balance of the Tax Parcel or other properties owned by
Seller as may be reasonably required to permit Purchaser to tie into the
stormwater detention facilities described in paragraph 6.a(24) above), and (ii)
to the extent mutually desired by Purchaser and Seller or otherwise required by
applicable Governmental Authorities, any reciprocal access easements over and
across portions of the Tax Parcel for the purpose of ingress and egress to (and
from) the Tax Parcel from (and to) MoPac Expressway South (Loop 1) and Gaines
Ranch Loop. Seller and Purchaser further agree that they shall enter into (and
Seller agrees to cause all other necessary persons or entities to execute), at
or immediately after the Closing, one or more agreements, amendments or other
instruments mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Seller providing for the
amendment of the Declaration to the extent necessary to identify the Real
Property and the balance of the Tax Parcel as separate "Lots" under the
Declaration and to permit the Real Property and the balance of the Tax Parcel to
have separate, individual voting rights thereunder.
17
<PAGE>
13. Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of the Real
Property is condemned or is the subject of a threat of condemnation, Purchaser
shall have the option of either (i) proceeding to close this transaction and
accepting an assignment of any condemnation award or (ii) terminating this
Contract. Purchaser shall exercise either election by the delivery of written
notice to Seller within ten (10) days of the date Seller notifies Purchaser in
writing of such condemnation, and, if Purchaser shall fail to timely make such
election, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected the option specified at
clause (ii) hereof. In the event of the termination of this Contract under the
provisions of this paragraph 13, the Escrow Deposit shall be returned to
Purchaser and the parties shall have no further obligation or liability to one
another hereunder (except for those obligations expressly surviving the
termination of this Contract).
14. Real Estate Commissions. Seller and Purchaser represent and warrant
to each other that they have dealt with no broker, finder or similar agent in
connection with the transaction provided for in this Contract, except Steve T.
Matthews Co. and Dick Matz Agency, Inc. (collectively called the "Brokers") to
which Seller agrees to pay a commission of six percent (6%) of the total
purchase price (to be divided equally between the Brokers) in the event and only
in the event this sale is closed in accordance with the terms and provisions of
this Contract and Seller receives the total purchase price provided for in
paragraph 2 herein. This commission will be full payment to the Brokers and to
any persons claiming through or under the Brokers, for all services rendered,
commissions earned, or expenses incurred in connection with the negotiations,
transfer, sale and/or conveyance of the Property; and, if requested by Seller,
the Brokers agree to execute and deliver to Seller at the Closing a full and
complete release of any claims and demands which may arise from any such
negotiations, transfer, sale and/or conveyance. Furthermore, the Brokers agree
to indemnify and hold Seller and Purchaser harmless from and against any claims
for commission or other fees made by any person if that person is claiming to
have dealt with the Brokers in connection with this transaction, including
reasonable attorney's fees incurred in connection with the defense of such a
claim. Seller agrees to hold Purchaser harmless from and against any claim made
by any person claiming to have dealt with Seller in connection with this
transaction, including reasonable attorney's fees incurred in the defense of
such a claim. Purchaser agrees to hold Seller harmless from and against any
claim made by any person claiming to have dealt with Purchaser in connection
with this transaction, including reasonable attorney's fees incurred in the
defense of such a claim. Purchaser acknowledges that it has been advised by the
Brokers that it should have an abstract covering the Real Property examined by
an attorney of its selection, or should be furnished with or obtain a policy of
title insurance.
15. Notices. Any notices required or permitted to be given under this
Contract shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be given (i) when actually
received by that person; (ii) on the third (3rd) business day after being
deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, registered or certified
mail, return receipt requested, addressed to Seller or Purchaser, as the case
may be, at the address indicated herein, or to a different address as previously
given in a notice to the other party; (iii) one (1) business day after timely
delivery to a nationally or regionally recognized overnight courier service
guaranteeing next business day delivery; or (iv) on the day transmitted by
facsimile, provided that the sender retains the written confirmation of the
delivery thereof and sends, mails or otherwise delivers a "hard copy" of such
notice to the recipient one (1) business day thereafter by means of delivery in

16. Miscellaneous
a. Assignment; Binding Effect; Authority. Purchaser cannot assign
this Contract to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of
Seller, except to (i) an entity controlling, controlled by or in common control
with Purchaser or (ii) the successor-in-interest to Purchaser's senior housing
division, if such division is spun off into a separate entity. Without Seller's
prior written consent, no assignment hereunder shall operate to release
Purchaser of its liabilities or obligations under this Contract. Subject to this
restriction on assignment, this Contract and all of its terms and provisions
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Seller, and the successors and
assigns of Seller, and Purchaser, and the successors and assigns of Purchaser.
Seller and Purchaser represent that they are duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the state of their organization, that
they have the legal power to enter into this Contract and to perform all the
terms of this Contract, and that the persons signing this Contract on their
behalf are fully authorized to sign for and to bind them.
b. Complete Agreement; Headings; Waiver. This Contract contains the
complete agreement of the parties and, except as expressly set forth in this
Contract, Seller has made no representations or warranties of any kind with
respect to the Property. This Contract cannot be amended or modified except by
written agreement signed by Seller and Purchaser. The paragraph headings herein
are for reference purposes only and are not intended in any way to describe,
interpret, define or limit the scope, content or extent of this Contract or any
part
19
<PAGE>
of it. If any portion of this Contract is held by a court of proper jurisdiction
to be invalid or inoperative, then so far as is reasonable and possible the
remainder of the Contract shall be deemed valid and operative, and effect shall
be given to the intent manifested by the portion held invalid or inoperative.
The failure by either party to enforce against the other any term or provisions
of this Contract shall not be deemed to be a waiver of that party's right to
enforce against the other party the same or any other term or provision. The
terms and provisions of this Contract shall not merge with, or be extinguished
or otherwise affected by, any subsequent conveyance or instrument between the
parties, unless the instrument specifically so states and is signed by both
parties.
c. Governing Law. This Contract and the obligations under this
Contract shall be construed in accordance with, governed by, and shall be
subject to, the laws of the State of Texas.
d. Execution in Counterparts. The Contract can be executed in
counterparts, each of which shall be an original and, upon the delivery to the
Title Company of one or more of the Contracts signed by all parties, together
will constitute a fully executed and binding Contract. As soon as possible, the
parties agree to exchange Contracts so that each party will have a fully
executed Contract.
e. Date of Contract. For purposes of this Contract it is agreed that
the Effective Date of this Contract shall be the date on which a fully executed
copy of this Contract, signed by both Seller and Purchaser, is deposited with
the Title Company along with the Escrow Deposit provided for herein. The Escrow
Deposit receipt issued by the Title Company shall be conclusive evidence of the
Effective Date of this Contract.
f. Offer. The execution of this Contract by one party (the
"Offeror") shall constitute an offer to the other party (the "Offeree") for the
purchase and sale of the Property pursuant to the terms, provisions and
conditions set forth in this Contract. In the event this offer, unless sooner
withdrawn, is not accepted by the Offeree by delivering (either by means of
overnight delivery or telecopy) an executed counterpart signature page hereof to
the Offeror on or before 5:00 p.m., C.S.T., Monday, February 17, 1997, this
offer shall become null and void, notwithstanding the Offeree's subsequent
execution thereof. For purposes hereof, the execution of this Contract by the
Brokers (or the failure thereof) shall not be determinative of compliance with
this provision.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Contract to be duly
executed on the dates set forth below to be effective as of the Effective Date.
