ARTICLE I
THE MERGER
SECTION 1.1 Effective Time of the Merger. Upon the terms and subject to
the conditions of this Agreement, articles of merger (the "Articles of Merger")
and a certificate of merger (the "Certificate of Merger"), respectively, shall
be duly prepared, executed and acknowledged by the "Surviving Entity" (as
defined in Section 1.3) and delivered to the Secretary of the Commonwealth of
Virginia (the "Virginia Secretary") and to the Secretary of State of Delaware
(the "Delaware Secretary") for filing as provided in the Virginia Stock
Corporation Act, as amended (the "Va Act"), and as provided in the Delaware
Limited Liability Company Act, as amended (the "DLLCA"), as soon as practicable
on or after the "Closing Date" (as defined in Section 1.2). The Merger shall
become effective upon the filing of the Articles of Merger and the Certificate
of Merger with the Virginia Secretary and the Delaware Secretary, respectively,
or at such other date and time subsequent thereto as mutually agreed by CSLC and
the Company and expressly provided in the Articles of Merger and the Certificate
of Merger (the "Effective Time").
SECTION 1.2 Closing. The closing of the Merger (the "Closing") shall
occur at 10:00 a.m., Eastern time, on a date to be mutually specified by the
parties hereto, which date shall be the first day of the calendar month
(provided that if such day is not a business day, then the Closing shall occur
on the first business day next following such day but nonetheless shall be
deemed to have occurred on the first day of such calendar month) next following
the waiver or satisfaction, as applicable, of the last to occur of the
conditions set forth in Article VI hereof (the "Closing Date"), at the offices
of Greenberg Traurig, The MetLife Building, 200 Park Avenue, 15th Floor, New

hereto.
SECTION 1.3 Effects of the Merger. (a) At the Effective Time, the
Company shall be merged with and into Sub, and thereupon, the separate corporate
existence of the Company shall cease (Sub and the Company being sometimes
hereafter referred to as the "Constituent Corporations" and Sub being sometimes
hereafter referred to as the "Surviving Entity").
(b) At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as
provided in the Va Act and the DLLCA. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights,
interests, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Sub thereupon
shall vest in the Surviving Entity, and all debts, liabilities, obligations,
restrictions, disabilities and duties of each of the Company and Sub
("Liabilities") thereupon shall become the Liabilities of the Surviving Entity.
SECTION 1.4 Organizational Instruments. The Certificate of Formation of
Sub in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Certificate
of Formation of the Surviving Entity from and after the Effective Time until
thereafter duly amended or restated in accordance with applicable law. The
Operating Agreement of Sub in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time
shall be the Operating Agreement of the Surviving Entity from and after the
Effective Time until thereafter duly amended or restated in accordance with the
Certificate of Formation of the Surviving Entity and applicable law.

<PAGE>
SECTION 1.5 Member. The sole member of Sub immediately prior to the
Effective Time shall continue as the sole member of the Surviving Entity from
and after the Effective Time until thereafter substituted or changed pursuant to
the Operating Agreement and the DLLCA.
ARTICLE II
EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK
AND MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS OF THE CONSTITUENT
CORPORATIONS; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES
SECTION 2.1 Effect on Capital Stock and Membership Interests. At the
Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the
part of the holder of any shares of capital stock or membership interests of the
Company, CSLC, or Sub:
(a) Membership Interests of Sub. Each membership interest of
Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and owned by CSLC
automatically shall be converted into and become one duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable membership interest of the Surviving
Entity.
(b) Cancellation of Certain Stock. All shares of common stock,
$.01 par value, of the Company (the "Company Common Stock") owned by the Company
as treasury stock and all shares of the Company Common Stock owned by CSLC, Sub,
or any other Subsidiary of the Company and CSLC, automatically shall be canceled
and retired and shall cease to exist and no capital stock or other interests of
CSLC, Sub, or any other Subsidiary of CSLC or other consideration (whether
consisting of cash or property) shall be delivered in exchange therefor.
As used in this Agreement, the word "Subsidiary" means, with
respect to any person or entity, any person or entity of which more than 50% of
the securities or other ownership interests having ordinary voting power to
elect a majority of the Board of Directors or others performing similar
functions are owned directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries,
by such person or entity.
(c) Merger Consideration. Each share of Company Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares to be
canceled in accordance with Section 2.1(b)) shall, at the Effective Time,
automatically be converted into the right to receive $12.901158 in cash (the
"Merger Consideration"). All such shares of Company Common Stock, when converted
as provided in this Section 2.1(c), no longer shall be outstanding and
automatically shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each
certificate previously evidencing such shares of Company Common Stock thereafter
shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration. The holders
of certificates previously evidencing such shares of Company Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any
rights of beneficial ownership or
3
<PAGE>
otherwise with respect to such shares except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement or by law and upon the surrender of certificates therefor in
accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3 shall only represent the right to
receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon.
SECTION 2.2 Letters of Transmittal. On such date on which the Company
Proxy Statement (as defined in Section 3.1(c)) is mailed to holders of the
Company Common Stock, the Company shall mail to each such holder on the record
date established for such holders entitled to notice of and to vote at the
Company Stockholders' Meeting (as defined in Section 3.1(c)), a form of letter
of transmittal, and other appropriate materials instructing each such holder on
the procedures required to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of each
share of Company Common Stock.
SECTION 2.3 Exchange Procedures. (a) Exchange Agent; Exchange Funds.
Immediately prior to the Effective Time, CSLC shall deposit (or cause to be
deposited) with ChaseMellon Shareholder Services, L.L.C., or such other bank or
trust company designated by CSLC and having net capital in excess of
$250,000,000 and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the "Exchange Agent"),
for the benefit of the holders of the Company Common Stock, for exchange in
accordance with this Article II, the aggregate Merger Consideration payable by
CSLC in the Merger to all holders of the Company Common Stock (the "Exchange
Funds").
(b) Surrender of Certificates. Promptly after the Effective
Time, the Exchange Agent shall distribute to each holder of the Company Common
Stock, upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of the certificate(s) for
cancellation in exchange for the Exchange Funds in accordance with this Article
II, the aggregate Merger Consideration to which each such holder is entitled to
receive in the Merger. In the event of a transfer of ownership of the Company
Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, a
certificate representing the proper number of shares of the Company Common Stock
may be issued to a transferee if certificate(s) representing such Company Common
Stock are presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required
to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that all applicable stock
transfer taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section
2.3, each certificate shall be deemed from and after the Effective Time to
represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Exchange Funds in
accordance with this Article II, without any interest thereon.
(c) No Further Ownership Rights in the Company Common Stock.
All Exchange Funds issued and paid upon the surrender for exchange of shares of
the Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to
have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such
shares, subject, however, to the Surviving Entity's obligation to pay any
dividends and make any other distributions having a record date prior to the
Effective Time which may have been declared or made by the Company on such
shares of Company Common Stock after the date hereof and otherwise in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time,
and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer
books of the Surviving Entity of the shares of the Company Common Stock which
were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the
Effective Time, certificate(s)
4
<PAGE>
representing shares of the Company Common Stock are presented to the Surviving
Entity for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this
Article II.
(d) Termination of Exchange Funds. Any portion of the Exchange
Funds which remains undistributed to the holders of the Company Common Stock on
the first anniversary of the Effective Time shall be delivered to CSLC or the
Surviving Entity, upon demand by CSLC, and any holders of the Company Common
Stock who have not theretofore surrendered their shares (in accordance with this
Article II and the instructions set forth in the letter of transmittal received
by such holders) thereafter shall look only to CSLC and the Surviving Entity for
payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration to which they are entitled in the
Merger.
(e) No Liability. Neither CSLC, Sub, nor the Company shall be
liable to any holder of Company Common Stock for any cash or property in respect
thereof delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned
property, escheat or other similar law.
(f) Lost or Stolen, etc. Certificates. If any certificate
evidencing shares of the Company Common Stock shall have been lost, stolen or
destroyed, then in such event, upon the submission of a duly notarized affidavit
of that fact by the person claiming such certificate(s) to be lost, stolen or
destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Entity, the posting by such person
of a bond, indemnity or similar surety in such reasonable amount as the
Surviving Entity may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made
against it with respect to such certificate(s), the Exchange Agent shall issue
in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate the applicable Merger
Consideration.
(g) Withholding Taxes. CSLC and Sub shall be entitled to
deduct and withhold (or cause the Exchange Agent to deduct and withhold) from
the Merger Consideration payable to a holder of the Company Common Stock, all
withholding and stock transfer taxes, including, without limitation, withholding
taxes imposed by the Foreign Investors Real Property Tax Act of 1980. To the
extent such amounts are so withheld, they shall be treated for all purposes of
this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Company Common Stock in
respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made by CSLC and Sub.
ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
SECTION 3.1 Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company
represents and warrants to each of CSLC and Sub as follows:
(a) Organization, Standing and Power. Each of the Company and
its Subsidiaries is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of incorporation or
organization, has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate
its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted, and is duly
qualified and in good standing to transact business in each jurisdiction in
which the nature of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties
makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure
5
<PAGE>
to be in good standing or so to qualify would not have a material adverse effect
on the properties, assets, financial condition or operations of the Company and
its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and/or would prevent or materially impair the
consummation by the Company of the Merger and the transactions contemplated
thereby and hereby (a "Material Adverse Effect").
(b) Capital Structure. The authorized capital stock of the
Company consists of 10,000,000 shares of the Company Common Stock, $.01 par
value. At the close of business on the date hereof, 7,520,100 shares of the
Company Common Stock were issued and outstanding. Except as provided in this
Agreement, there are no shares of capital stock of the Company outstanding and
there are no options, warrants, calls, rights or agreements to which the Company
or any Subsidiary of the Company is a party or by which it is bound obligating
the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to issue, deliver or sell, or cause
to be issued, delivered or sold, additional shares of capital stock or any
voting debt securities of the Company or of any Subsidiary of the Company, or
obligating the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to grant, extend or
enter into any such option, warrant, call, right or agreement. All outstanding
shares of the Company Common Stock have been duly authorized and are validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
The authorized capital stock of ILM Holding, Inc. ("ILM
Holding") consists of 50,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par value ("Holding
Common Stock") and 275 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, no par value
("Holding Preferred Stock"). At the close of business on the date hereof, 50,000
shares of Holding Common Stock and 275 shares of Holding Preferred Stock,
respectively, were issued and outstanding. All outstanding shares of Holding
Common Stock have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid,
nonassessable and wholly owned by the Company. All outstanding shares of Holding
Preferred Stock have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.
(c) Authority. The Company has all requisite corporate power
and authority to enter into this Agreement and, subject to the adoption of this
Agreement and the Merger by the holders of not less than 66-2/3% of the
outstanding Company Common Stock (the "Company Stockholder Approval Condition"),
to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery
of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on
the part of the Company, and the consummation by it of the transactions
contemplated hereby has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
on the part of the Company, subject to the Company Stockholder Approval
Condition. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company
and, subject to the Company Stockholder Approval Condition, constitutes a valid
and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against it in accordance with
its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors' rights and
remedies generally. The execution and delivery of this Agreement does not, and
the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby will
not, conflict with or result in any violation of or default (with or without
notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination,
cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or the loss of a material right
or benefit under, or the creation or imposition of any lien, pledge, adverse
claim, security interest, charge or other encumbrance ("Lien") on or against any
assets or properties of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (any such
conflict, violation, default, right of termination, cancellation, acceleration,
loss, creation or imposition, hereafter a "Violation"), pursuant to, (i) any
6
<PAGE>
provision of the Articles of Incorporation or By-laws or analogous instruments
of governance or formation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries presently
in effect, or (ii) any loan or credit agreement, note, mortgage, indenture,
lease, Company Benefit Plan (as defined in Section 3.1(j)(i)) or other
agreement, obligation, instrument, permit, concession, franchise, license,
judgment, writ, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation
applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or their respective
properties or assets, except in the case of this clause (ii), for any such
Violation which insofar as reasonably can be foreseen would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.
No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, declaration or filing with, any court, administrative agency,
commission or other public or governmental authority (a "Governmental Entity")
is required by or with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in
connection with the execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement or
the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby, the
failure to obtain which insofar as reasonably can be foreseen would have a
Material Adverse Effect, except for (i) the filing with the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") of a proxy statement (the "Company Proxy Statement")
in definitive form on Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), relating to the special meeting (the "Company
Stockholders' Meeting") of holders of the Company Common Stock to be convened as
required by the Va Act and in accordance with the Company's Articles of
Incorporation and By-laws to vote upon the adoption and approval of this
Agreement and the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby,
the related Transaction Statement of the Company and CSLC on Schedule 13E-3 (the
"Schedule 13E-3"), and such reports and other transaction statements under the
Exchange Act as may be required in connection with this Agreement, the Merger
and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, (ii) the filing of the
Articles of Merger, the Certificate of Merger and such other appropriate
documents with the Virginia Secretary and the Delaware Secretary, as applicable,
and relevant authorities of other jurisdictions in which the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries is qualified to do business, (iii) all applicable filings, if
any, with, and submissions of information to, the United States Federal Trade
Commission ("FTC") and the United States Department of Justice, Antitrust
Division ("DOJ"), pursuant to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act
of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), and (iv) such other filings,
authorizations, orders and approvals as may be required and which heretofore
have been made or obtained.
The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Company Board")
has unanimously approved this Agreement, the Merger and all of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby and has resolved unanimously to recommend that
holders of the Company Common Stock approve and adopt this Agreement and the
Merger; provided that the Company Board may withdraw, modify or change such
recommendation (including in a manner adverse to CSLC) under the circumstances
set forth in the second sentence of Section 4.1(e)(ii).
(d) SEC Documents. The Company has made available to CSLC a
true and complete copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and
definitive proxy statement filed by the Company with the SEC since September 1,
1997 (as such documents have been amended to date, the "Company SEC Documents")
which constitute all the documents (other than preliminary material) that the
Company was required to file with the SEC since such date. As of their
respective dates, the Company SEC Documents complied in all material respects
with the requirements of the
7
<PAGE>
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the Exchange Act and
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture Act"), as the
case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder applicable
thereto (other than with respect to the timely filing thereof), and none of the
Company SEC Documents contained, at the time they were filed, any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The consolidated
financial statements of the Company included in the Company SEC Documents comply
in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and with the
published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, have been
prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP") applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as
may be indicated in the notes thereto or, in the case of unaudited or interim
statements, as permitted by the SEC's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) and fairly
present (subject, in the case of the unaudited or interim statements, to normal
and recurring audit adjustments) the consolidated financial position of the
Company and its Subsidiaries at the dates thereof and the consolidated results
of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended. Since November
30, 1998, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any
liabilities, except for (i) liabilities or obligations incurred in the ordinary
course of business consistent with past practice, including the Company's
obligations under the "Fleet Agreement" (as hereinafter defined), (ii)
liabilities incurred in connection with or as a result of this Agreement and the
Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, and (iii) such other
liabilities and obligations which, individually or in the aggregate, are de
minimis.
(e) Information Supplied. None of the information supplied or
to be supplied by the Company expressly for inclusion or (to the extent
permitted by applicable rules of the SEC) incorporated by reference in the
Company Proxy Statement and/or the Schedule 13E-3 shall, on the date the same is
filed with the SEC in definitive form, on each date on which the Company Proxy
Statement is mailed to holders of the Company Common Stock, and on the date of
the Company Stockholders' Meeting, as applicable, contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. The Company Proxy
Statement shall, on each date mailed to holders of Company Common Stock in
connection with the Company Stockholders' Meeting and at all times thereafter to
the Closing Date, comply in all material respects with the provisions of
Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act.
(f) Compliance with Applicable Laws. The Company and its
Subsidiaries hold all permits, licenses, variances, exemptions, orders,
authorizations and approvals of all Governmental Entities which are material to
the operation of their respective businesses (the "Company Permits"). The
Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with the terms of the Company
Permits, except where the failure so to comply insofar as reasonably can be
foreseen would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the
Company SEC Documents, the respective businesses of the Company and its
Subsidiaries are not being conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or
regulation of any Governmental Entity, except for violations which do not, and
insofar as reasonably can be foreseen would not, have a Material Adverse Effect.
As of the date of this Agreement, no investigation or review by any Governmental
Entity with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is pending or, to
the knowledge of the Company, threatened, nor has any Governmental
8
<PAGE>
Entity indicated an intention to conduct the same other than those the outcome
of which, insofar as reasonably can be foreseen, would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.
(g) Litigation. Except as disclosed in the Company SEC
Documents, there is no suit, action or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge
of the Company, threatened, against or affecting the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries which, if determined adversely to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, would insofar as reasonably can be foreseen, have a Material
Adverse Effect, nor is there any judgment, decree, writ, injunction, rule or
order of any Governmental Entity or arbitrator outstanding against the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries of the Company having, or which insofar as reasonably
can be foreseen would have, a Material Adverse Effect.
(h) Taxes. (i) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has
filed all material tax returns required to be filed by any of them and has paid
(or the Company has paid on its behalf) all taxes required to be paid as shown
on such returns, and all such tax returns are complete and accurate in all
material respects. The most recent financial statements contained in the Company
SEC Documents reflect an adequate reserve for all taxes payable by the Company
and its Subsidiaries accrued through the date of such financial statements.
Since November 30, 1998, and September 25, 1998 neither the Company nor any of
its Subsidiaries have incurred any liability for taxes under Sections 857(b),
860(c) or 4981 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),
and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any liability
for taxes other than in the ordinary course of business. No event has occurred
and no condition exists which presents a material risk that any material tax
liability described in the preceding sentence will be imposed upon the Company
and its Subsidiaries. No material deficiencies for any taxes have been proposed,
asserted or assessed by any Governmental Entity against the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries. No requests for waivers of the time to assess taxes are
pending and no tax returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has been or
are currently being audited by any applicable taxing authority. There are no tax
liens on any asset of the Company or its Subsidiaries other than liens for
current taxes not past due and payable.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "tax" (including,
with correlative meaning, the terms "taxes" and "taxable") includes all Federal,
state, local and foreign income, profits, franchise, gross receipts, payroll,
sales, windfall profits, ad valorem, stamp, severance, occupation, premium,
customs duties, commercial rent, capital stock, paid-up capital, value added,
unemployment, disability, alternative or add-on minimum, single business, social
security, registration, estimated, environmental, employment, use, real or
personal property, withholding, excise and other taxes, imposts, duties or
assessments of any nature whatsoever, together with all interest, penalties,
charges and additions to tax imposed with respect to such amounts.

Section 269B(a) of the Code, and has satisfied all requirements to qualify as a
REIT for such periods, (B) has operated since its most recent tax year end in
such a manner so as to qualify as a REIT for the taxable year ending through the

9

under Section 856(d)(2) of the Code or (2) otherwise result in a challenge to
its status as a REIT, and no such challenge is pending or, to the Company's
knowledge, threatened, by or before any Governmental Entity.
(iii) ILM Holding (A) for all taxable years
commencing with the tax year which commenced on January 1, 1996 through its most

meaning of Section 856 of the Code, has not been subject to Section 269B(a) of
the Code, and has satisfied all requirements to qualify as a REIT for such
periods, (B) has operated since its most recent taxable year end in such manner
so as to qualify as a REIT for the taxable year ending through the Closing Date,
and (C) has not taken (or omitted to take) any action which reasonably would be
expected to (1) result in any rents paid by the tenants of the Senior Housing
Facilities to be excluded from the definition of rents from real property under
Section 856(d)(2) of the Code or (2) otherwise result in a challenge by any
taxing authority to its status as a REIT, and no such challenge is pending or,
to the Company's or ILM Holding's knowledge, threatened, by or before any
Governmental Entity.

of which would be calculated by reference to any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.
(j) Benefit Plans. (i) Neither the Company nor any other
member of a "Company Controlled Group" (as hereafter defined) maintains,
contributes to or participates in, or has any obligation to maintain, contribute

the terms of such Company Benefit Plan); and (D) to the knowledge of the Company
there are no actual or pending claims or actions (other than claims for benefits
in the ordinary course) relating to any such Company Benefit Plan.
(iii) There are no unfunded and accrued benefit obli-
gations for which contributions have not been properly accrued to the extent
required by GAAP, on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and
its Subsidiaries, which obligations reasonably are likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect.
(k) Title to and Sufficiency of Assets. The Company directly,
or indirectly through a wholly-owned Subsidiary, owns, and as of the Effective
Time the Company shall own, valid title to all of its assets constituting the
Senior Housing Facilities and personal property which is material to the

(m) Opinion of Financial Advisor. The Company has received the
written opinion of Cohen & Steers Capital Advisors LLC dated October 6, 1999, a
true and complete copy of which has been delivered (but not addressed) to CSLC,

nor any of its Subsidiaries have received any written notification from any
Governmental Entity asserting that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is in

There are no investigations of the business, operations or Senior Housing
Facilities, pending or, to the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries' knowledge,

can be foreseen, would result in the imposition of material liability on the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any successor-in-interest thereto)

containing or polychlorinated biphenyls ("PCBs").

otherwise expressly contemplated or permitted by this Agreement, or to the
extent that the other party shall consent in writing):
(a) Ordinary Course. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries
shall conduct its business in the usual, regular and ordinary course in
substantially the same manner as heretofore conducted. Each of the Company, and
its Subsidiaries shall use its reasonable best efforts to preserve

<PAGE>
intact its present business organizations, keep available the services of its
present officers and employees and preserve satisfactory relationships with
customers, suppliers and others having business dealings with it to the end that
its goodwill and on-going businesses shall not be impaired in any material
respect at the Effective Time; provided, however, that without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall conduct
their business substantially in accordance with the operating budgets heretofore
approved and presently in effect for the Senior Housing Facilities and the
capital budgets as approved by the Company Board.
(b) Dividends; Changes in Stock. The Company shall not, nor

17
<PAGE>
foregoing); provided that if the Company Board determines, based upon the advice
of outside legal counsel, that the failure to engage in such negotiations or
discussions, furnish or disclose such information or afford such access would be
inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company Board under applicable
law, then the Company, in response to an Acquisition Proposal, may furnish and
disclose such material non-public information and afford such access with
respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries and may fully participate in
discussions and negotiations regarding such Acquisition Proposal and conduct all
such due diligence and do all acts and things and incur all such expenses
necessary to become deliberately and fully informed as to the nature, material
terms and likelihood of consummation of the Acquisition Proposal; provided,
further, however, that, in connection therewith, the Company and the potential
acquiring party shall enter into a customary confidentiality and "standstill"
agreement of not less than two years' duration and such agreement otherwise

signatory thereto (the "CSLC Letter Agreement").

transaction (whether in a single transaction or series of related transactions)
of 20% or more of the consolidated assets of the Company or 20% or more of any
class or series of equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
any tender offer or exchange offer which, if consummated, would result in any
person or entity (including any "group" referred to above) beneficially owning
20% or more of any class or series of equity securities of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries, and any merger, consolidation, business combination, sale or
other transfer of assets substantially as an entirety, recapitalization,
exchange, liquidation, dissolution, divestiture, reorganization or other
extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
Merger.
Anything to the contrary in this Section 4.1(e)
notwithstanding, nothing contained in this Section 4.1(e) shall prohibit the
Company or the Company Board from taking and disclosing to the holders of
Company Common Stock pursuant to Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) and Regulations 14A
and 14C under the Exchange Act, a position with respect to a tender or exchange
offer or solicitation of proxies conducted by a third party or from making such
disclosure to holders of the Company Common Stock, or otherwise, as may be
required by applicable law (including, without limitation, requirements of the
Exchange Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder, the regulations of any
national securities exchange registered pursuant to Section 6 of the Exchange
Act or U.S. inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities
association, or Sections 13.1-770 through and including 13.1-775 of the Va Act);
provided that neither the Company nor the Company Board (or any special or other
committee thereof) shall, except as set forth in Sections 4.1(e)(ii) or 5.3,
withdraw, modify or change (or propose to withdraw, modify or change) its
recommendation of approval of this Agreement and the Merger or approve or
recommend (or propose to approve or recommend) an Acquisition Proposal.
18
<PAGE>
(ii) Except as provided in the next sentence of this
Section 4.1(e)(ii) and in Section 5.3, neither the Company nor the Company Board
(or any special or other committee thereof) shall (A) withdraw, modify or change
(or propose to withdraw, modify or change) in a manner adverse to CSLC, the
recommendation by the Company Board (or any such committee) of the approval of
this Agreement and the Merger, (B) approve or recommend (or propose to approve
or recommend) an Acquisition Proposal, or (C) cause the Company to enter into a
definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding
the immediately preceding sentence, if the Company Board determines, based upon
the advice of outside legal counsel, that the failure to take any of the actions
contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence would be inconsistent with
the fiduciary duties of the Company Board under applicable law, then the Company
Board may withdraw, modify or change its recommendation of approval of this
Agreement and the Merger, affirmatively approve or recommend a "Superior
Proposal" (as defined below), or cause the Company to enter into an agreement
with respect to a Superior Proposal; provided, that, in the case of approving,
recommending or causing the Company to enter into an agreement with respect to a
Superior Proposal, such approval, recommendation or execution and delivery shall
occur not earlier than the seventh day next following CSLC's receipt of written
notice (by facsimile) advising CSLC that the Company Board has received a
Superior Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions thereof
(including, without limitation, the price, structure, tax and accounting
treatment, financing requirements (if any), requisite regulatory consents and
approvals (if any) and the anticipated timing of receipt of such approvals and,
if then known, the approximate anticipated date of consummation thereof) and
identifying the person(s) making such Superior Proposal.
For purposes of this Agreement, a "Superior Proposal" means
any written Acquisition Proposal to acquire, directly or indirectly (whether in
a single transaction or series of related transactions), for consideration
consisting of cash, securities and/or other property, 50% or more of the Company
Common Stock then outstanding or 50% or more of the consolidated assets of the
Company, upon terms and subject to conditions which the Company Board determines
in its good faith judgment (based upon the advice of an investment banking firm
of nationally recognized reputation) to be more favorable from a financial point
of view to the holders of the Company Common Stock than the Merger, and in
respect of which external financing, if required to be obtained by the acquiring
person or entity, either then is fully committed (pursuant to a customary
commitment letter) or, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board (based
upon the advice of said investment banking firm), obtainable by the acquiring
person or entity based upon the creditworthiness of such person or entity.
(iii) In addition to the obligations of the Company
set forth in Sections 4.1(e)(i) and (ii), the Company shall notify CSLC in
writing (by facsimile) within three days of the Company's receipt of any request
for information or of the receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, or any
communication with respect to (or which reasonably would be expected to result
in) an Acquisition Proposal, and the material terms and conditions of such
request, Acquisition Proposal or communication (to the same extent set forth
parenthetically in the proviso to the second sentence of Section 4.1(e)(ii)).
The Company shall inform CSLC of the status and details of (including amendments
or proposed amendments to) any such request, Acquisition Proposal or
communication. In addition, the Company promptly shall provide to CSLC any due
diligence information in respect of the Company furnished to the party making
the Acquisition Proposal.
19
<PAGE>
(iv) In the event that the Company releases any third
party from its obligations under any standstill agreement or arrangement
relating to an Acquisition Proposal or otherwise under any confidentiality or
other similar agreement relating to information material to the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously release CSLC from its
obligations and restrictions under the CSLC Letter Agreement.
(f) No Acquisitions. The Company shall not, nor shall it
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, acquire or agree to acquire by merging or
consolidating with, or by purchasing a substantial equity interest in or a
substantial portion of the assets of, or by any other manner, any business or
corporation, partnership, limited liability entity, association or other
business organization or division thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to
acquire any assets, in each case, which are material, individually or in the
aggregate, to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
(g) No Dispositions. The Company shall not, nor shall the
Company permit any of its Subsidiaries to sell, lease, encumber or otherwise
dispose of or agree to sell, lease, encumber or otherwise dispose of, any of its
assets, which are material to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
(h) Indebtedness. Other than the indebtedness and the
transactions contemplated by that certain Term Loan Agreement dated September
29, 1998, between the Company, ILM Holding, ILM I Lease Corporation ("ILM I
Lease Co") and Fleet National Bank (the "Fleet Agreement"), a true and complete
copy of which agreement has been made available to CSLC for inspection, the
Company shall not, nor shall the Company permit any of its Subsidiaries to,
incur, assume or guarantee any indebtedness for borrowed money.
(i) Other Actions. Neither the Company, CSLC, or Sub shall,
nor shall the Company, CSLC, or Sub permit any of its Subsidiaries to, take any
action that would or reasonably would be likely to result in any of its
representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement being untrue as of
the date made (to the extent so limited) or any of the conditions to the Merger
set forth in Article VI hereof not being satisfied.
(j) Advice of Changes; SEC Filings. Each of the Company and
CSLC shall confer on a regular basis with the other, report on operational
matters and promptly advise the other orally and in writing of any change or
event having, or which insofar as reasonably can be foreseen would have, a
Material Adverse Effect or a CSLC Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Company
and CSLC promptly shall provide the other with true and complete copies of all
filings made by it with any Governmental Entity in connection with this
Agreement, the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
(k) Certain Other Actions.
(i) The Company shall, and shall cause each of its
Subsidiaries to, duly and timely file all reports, Federal, state and local tax
returns and other documents required to be filed with Federal, state, local and
other authorities, subject to extensions permitted by applicable law;
20
<PAGE>
provided that, in the case of the Company and ILM Holding, such extensions do
not adversely affect the status of the Company or ILM Holding as a qualified
REIT under the Code.
(ii)The Company shall not and the Company shall cause
its Subsidiaries not to, make or rescind any express or deemed election relative
to taxes (unless, in the case of the Company or ILM Holding, it is required by
law or necessary to preserve the status of the Company or ILM Holding as a REIT
for Federal income tax purposes).
(iii) The Company shall promptly notify CSLC of any
action, suit, proceeding, claim or audit pending against or with respect to such
party or its Subsidiaries in respect of any Federal, state or local taxes where
there is a reasonable probability of a determination or decision by a relevant
authority which would materially increase the tax liabilities of such party, and
the Company shall not change any of the tax elections, accounting methods,
conventions or principles which relate to it or its Subsidiaries that insofar as
reasonably could be foreseen would materially increase such party's liabilities.
(iv) The Company shall, and shall cause ILM Holding
to, take (or refrain from taking, as applicable) such action(s) as are necessary
to maintain the status of each of the Company and ILM Holding as a REIT for
Federal income tax purposes, through the Closing Date.
(l) Facilities Lease Agreement. Immediately prior to the
Effective Time, the Company shall cause that certain Facilities Lease Agreement,
dated September 1, 1995 (the "Lease Agreement"), between ILM Holding and ILM
Lease Co. to be terminated without any cost or expense to any of the Company,
ILM Holding, CSLC, Sub or the Surviving Entity. From the date hereof, through
and including the date of termination of the Lease Agreement, the Company shall
not, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, amend the Lease Agreement
or waive the performance by ILM Lease Co of any of its duties or obligations
under the Lease Agreement.
(m) Fleet Agreement. From the date hereof through and
including the Effective Time, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
shall draw down or borrow any monies pursuant to the Fleet Agreement for any
purpose other than the reimbursement of expenses incurred by the Company or its
Subsidiaries in respect of the construction of expansions on the existing Senior
Housing Facilities.
(n) Contribution and Liquidation. All assets and properties
owned, leased and operated by ILM Holding and all receivables due to ILM Holding
from any person or entity, in each case shall be transferred, contributed and
assigned to the Company, and immediately prior to the Merger, ILM Holding shall
be liquidated or merged with and into the Company in a transaction pursuant to
Section 332 of the Code, and as a result of such merger or liquidation, the
separate corporate existence of ILM Holding shall have been terminated and the
Company thereupon shall own all of the assets of ILM Holding.

7.1(b)(i) due to a material breach by the Company of Section 4.1(e) (and not in
respect of any other material breach by the Company of any other provision of
this Agreement) and prior to the expiration of the 16-month period next

date of such termination).
It is expressly agreed that the amounts to be paid pursuant to
this Section 5.6(b) and Section 5.6(e) constitute liquidated damages negotiated

operate as, a penalty.
(c) The costs of filing with the SEC, printing (including
financial printer document production costs) and mailing to the holders of
Company Common Stock the Company Proxy Statement and the Schedule 13E-3, shall
be borne equally by the Company and CSLC. As of the date hereof, each of the

similar fee
24
<PAGE>
in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
except for Schroder & Co. Inc. and Cohen & Steers, Inc., whose fees and expenses

of CSLC and the Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other
from and against any and all claims, liabilities or obligations with respect to
any other fees, commissions or expenses asserted by any person on the basis of
any act or statement alleged to have been made by such party or its affiliate.

shall have taken all requisite corporate action (i) to authorize the creation of
and to establish an advisory board (the " CSLC Advisory Board"), the members of
whom, from time to time after the Effective Time, shall be invited to attend,
but not to vote at, meetings of the CSLC Board of Directors (at the pleasure and
discretion of such Board) and (ii) to cause three nominees designated by the
Company (as set forth in that certain Letter Agreement dated February 7, 1999,
as amended on the date hereof, between CSLC and the Company) to serve as members
of the CSLC Advisory Board, for an initial term commencing at the Effective Time
and expiring on the third anniversary thereof, until their successors are duly
appointed by the CSLC Board of Directors. Each member of the Advisory Board
shall receive a $7,000 annual retainer fee for membership on the Advisory Board
and a fee of $200 for attendance or participation at each meeting of the
Advisory Board and shall be entitled to participate in the same stock option and
similar programs made available by CSLC to CSLC's directors (provided that each
member of the Advisory Board otherwise satisfies the eligibility requirements
thereof).
SECTION 5.9 Indemnification; Directors' and Officers' Insurance. (a)
The Company shall, and from and after the Effective Time, CSLC and the Surviving
Entity shall, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each person who is now, or at
any time prior to the date hereof has been or who becomes prior to the Effective
Time, an officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
(the "Indemnified Parties") from and against (i) all losses, claims, damages,
costs, expenses, liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement
with the approval of the indemnifying party (which approval shall not
unreasonably be withheld) of or in connection with any claim, action, suit,
proceeding, case or investigation ("Action") based in whole or in part on or
arising in whole or in part out of or in connection with the fact that such
person is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or any
Subsidiary, whether pertaining to any matter existing or occurring at or prior
to the Effective Time and whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the
Effective Time ("Indemnified Liabilities") and (ii) all Indemnified Liabilities
based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of or in
connection with this Agreement, the Merger or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, in each case to the fullest extent a corporation
is permitted under applicable law to indemnify its own directors, officers and
employees, as the case may be and CSLC and the Surviving Entity, as the case may
be, shall pay expenses in advance of the final disposition of any such action or
proceeding to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted under
applicable law upon receipt of any undertaking contemplated by applicable law.
Without limiting the foregoing, if any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or
investigation is commenced or instituted against any Indemnified Party (whether
arising before or after the Effective Time), (i) the Indemnified Parties may
retain counsel satisfactory to them and the Company (or satisfactory to them and
CSLC and the Surviving Entity after the Effective Time); (ii) the Company (or
after the Effective Time, CSLC and the Surviving Entity) shall pay all
reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel
25
<PAGE>
for the Indemnified Parties promptly as reasonably itemized statements therefor
are received; and (iii) the Company (or after the Effective Time, CSLC and the
Surviving Entity) shall use best efforts to assist in the vigorous defense of
any such matter, provided that neither the Company, CSLC nor the Surviving
Entity shall be liable for any settlement of any claim effected without its
written consent (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld). Any
Indemnified Party electing to claim indemnification under this Section 5.9, upon
learning of any such Action, shall promptly notify the Company, CSLC or the
Surviving Entity of such election (but the failure so to notify the Company
shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section
5.9, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices it or if it
otherwise forfeits substantive rights and defenses as a result of such failure),
and shall deliver to the Company (or after the Effective Time, to CSLC and the
Surviving Entity) the undertaking contemplated by applicable law. The
Indemnified Parties as a group may retain only one firm of legal counsel to
represent them with respect to each such matter unless there is, under
applicable standards of professional conduct, a conflict in respect of any
significant issue between the positions of any two or more Indemnified Parties.
(b) For a period of seven years after the Effective Time, CSLC
shall cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors' and
officers' liability insurance maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries
(provided that CSLC may substitute therefor policies of at least the same
coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions which are no less
advantageous) with respect to claims arising from facts or events which occurred
before the Effective Time to the extent available on commercially reasonable
terms; provided, however, that CSLC shall not be obligated to incur in excess of
$400,000 in the aggregate under this Section 5.9(b).
(c) The provisions of this Section 5.9 are intended to be for
the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party, his heirs
and his representatives.
SECTION 5.10 Proposed Simultaneous Acquisition.
(a) The Company hereby acknowledges that it has been advised
by CSLC that CSLC, substantially simultaneously with the execution and delivery
of this Agreement, is entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "ILM II
Merger Agreement") of even date herewith, among CSLC, Sub, and ILM II Senior
Living, Inc. ("ILM II"), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions thereof, ILM II will merge with and into Sub and Sub will be the
surviving corporation in such merger (the "ILM II Merger").
(b) CSLC, the Company and Sub hereby acknowledge and agree
that it shall not be a condition to the respective obligations of any party to
this Agreement to effect the Merger (and the transactions contemplated thereby)
that the ILM II Merger Agreement shall have been approved by the stockholders of
ILM II or CSLC, as applicable, or that the ILM II Merger (and the transactions
contemplated thereby) shall have been consummated.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
the Company shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of CSLC to coordinate
the timing of the Company Stockholders' Meeting and the meeting of stockholders
required in respect of the ILM II Merger; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be required to agree to any material delay of the Company
Stockholders' Meeting for any reason relating to the timing of the ILM II
stockholders
26
<PAGE>
meeting or any other matters related to the ILM II Merger. The Company and CSLC
shall cooperate and promptly provide each other with all financial and other
data regarding the Company and CSLC as reasonably may be requested and required
in connection with the preparation of any proxy statement and Transaction
Statement on Schedule 13E-3 relating to the ILM II Merger.
(d) (i) If this Agreement is terminated and the ILM II
Merger has been consummated, the Company covenants and agrees to sell, transfer
and convey, or cause to be sold, transferred and conveyed, all of its or its
Subsidiary's right, title and interest in that certain property owned 75% in fee
by ILM Holding and situated in Santa Barbara, California (the "Santa Barbara
Property") to the surviving entity (or its designee) in the ILM II Merger. The
purchase price to be paid for the Santa Barbara Property shall be the appraised
value of the Santa Barbara Property (as hereinafter defined) multiplied by the
percentage ownership of the Santa Barbara Property held by the Company or its
Subsidiary.
(ii) The closing of the sale of the Santa Barbara
Property shall occur at such time and place as shall be mutually agreed upon by
the parties; but in no event later than 90 days subsequent to the consummation
of the ILM II Merger. At such closing, upon receipt of the purchase price for
the Santa Barbara Property, the Company shall, or shall cause, the Santa Barbara
Property to be conveyed, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances,
pursuant to customary documentation.
(iii) For purposes of this Section 5.10(d), the
"appraised value of the Santa Barbara Property" shall mean the fair market value
of the Santa Barbara Property as determined by the appraisal process set forth
herein. The Company and CSLC shall each appoint one independent nationally
recognized asset appraisal firm within 15 days of consummation of the ILM II
Merger. If one party fails to appoint an appraiser within such 15-day period,
the appraiser appointed by the other party shall determine the fair market value
of the Santa Barbara Property. If the two appraisers fail to agree upon the fair
market value of such property within 60 days of their appointment and the
difference between the appraisals is 10% or less of the amount of the higher
appraisal, then the appraisals shall be averaged and that average shall be the
fair market value of the Santa Barbara Property. If the difference between the
appraisals is greater than 10% of the higher appraisal, such two appraisers
shall then mutually appoint a third independent nationally recognized asset
appraisal firm and the amount designated by such mutually selected appraiser
shall be the fair market value of the Santa Barbara Property.
SECTION 5.11 Additional Agreements; Best Efforts. Upon the terms and
subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each of the Company, CSLC and Sub
agrees to use its best efforts to take (or cause to be taken or cause to be
done), all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and
regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, subject to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval
Condition, including, without limitation, cooperating fully with the other
party, including by provision of information and making all necessary filings in
connection with, among other things, any Governmental Entity approval. In case
at any time after the Effective Time any further action is necessary or
desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving
Entity with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, immunities
and franchises of either of the Constituent Corporations, the proper officers
and directors of each party to this Agreement shall promptly take all such
