herewith; (ii) proratable items which are not yet due and payable by Seller
prior to or at Closing and for which Purchaser receives a credit at Closing; and

liabilities expressly agreed to be assumed at Closing by Purchaser pursuant to
the first sentence of this Section 2.2. To the extent that any of the Assumed
Contracts are not assignable without the consent of a third party, this

the market area of the respective Facilities, and Seller has not
licensed or entered into any agreement to permit any person or entity

knowledge, the use of such Facility names by Seller does not, and the
use of such Facility names by Purchaser in the respective market areas
of each Facility in a manner consistent with Seller's past practices

similar name owned by any other person or entity known to Seller.
6.4.5 Liabilities. Except as set forth in the Schedules

Premises or the operation of the Facilities (together with the Labor
Contracts and Occupancy Agreements, collectively referred to herein as
the "Contracts"). Seller has heretofore delivered to Purchaser a true
and complete copy of each such Contract listed in Schedule 6.5.1.1.
Each Assumed Contract is in full force and effect, and, to the best of
Seller's knowledge, neither Seller nor any other party to any Assumed

passage of time, would become an event of default by Seller thereunder.
6.5.2 Transactions with Affiliates. Except as set forth in
Schedule 6.5.2 attached hereto, no Affiliate of Seller is an officer,
director, employee, consultant, competitor, customer, or supplier of,
or is a party to any Contract with, Seller in connection with any of
the Facilities (collectively, "Affiliate Arrangements"). Unless
Purchaser otherwise agrees in writing, Seller shall terminate or cause
to be terminated each such Affiliate Arrangement described in Schedule
6.5.2 hereto on or before the Closing Date. There are no trade names,
proprietary knowledge or licenses that any such Affiliate owns or is
licensed or otherwise has the right to use and which is necessary to

no agreements under which tenants or patients entering any Facility
subsequent to the adoption by Seller of the applicable Occupancy
Agreement Form currently occupy all or any part of any Facility which
materially deviate from the Occupancy Agreement Forms. There are no
undisclosed amendments or agreements to such residency agreements, nor
any special rates, services, or concessions promised by Seller to any

attached hereto.
6.5.4 Insurance. Attached as Schedule 6.5.4 hereto is a list
of all insurance coverage maintained by Seller as of the Effective Date
in connection with the Premises and the operation of each Facility. All
such insurance coverage is in full force and effect (with no overdue
premium) in the amounts set forth on Schedule 6.5.4. Seller agrees to
maintain the insurance coverage listed in Schedule 6.5.4 without
material change thereto through the Closing Date. Certificates
evidencing such insurance coverage will be supplied by Seller to
Purchaser at Purchaser's request. Seller shall promptly inform
Purchaser of any non-renewal, material change, cancellation, or
replacement of any such insurance coverage prior to Closing. In the
event of any non-renewal, material change, or cancellation of the
insurance coverage currently maintained by Seller hereunder, Purchaser
shall have the right during the period prior to Closing to provide
replacement insurance generally comparable to the insurance coverage
currently maintained by Seller, at the Seller's expense, and to deduct
the cost thereof from the Purchase Price. All prepaid insurance
policies shall be assigned to Purchaser at Closing.

Purchaser and its agents the right to enter upon the Premises at any reasonable
time or times to conduct and obtain such further appraisals and/or updates.

the Closing Date.
11.4 Real Estate and Personal Property Tax Prorations. Real estate
taxes and assessments and personal property taxes ("Taxes") shall be prorated at
the Closing based upon the last available tax duplicate, which prorations shall
thereafter be adjusted directly between Seller and Purchaser based upon the
actual amount of taxes for the year in which the Closing occurs, promptly
following receipt of the official statement therefor and notice thereof by
Purchaser to Seller. The proration agreement set forth herein shall be
incorporated into an agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and
Seller to be executed and delivered by each at Closing. All Taxes shall be
prorated on the accrual basis, Seller being responsible for all Taxes accruing
up to the Closing Date regardless of whether such Taxes are then due and
payable.
11.5 Other Prorations. All expenses attributable to the operation of
each Facility (measured on an accrual basis) through 11:59 p.m. on the day
before the Closing shall be paid for by Seller. Thereafter, such expenses shall
be paid for by Purchaser. All income not received by Seller as of the Closing,
including, but not limited to, all payments under Occupancy Agreements,
including any insurance payments or advances, shall be for Seller's account and
any amount collected from tenants or patients and third party payors with

readings. To the extent that all items of income and expenses to be transferred,
prorated, or assumed cannot be determined at the Closing, then Seller and
Purchaser shall cooperate with each other to revise the settlement statements
within thirty (30) days after Closing.
All prepaid rental and security deposits and other tenant or patient
funds held in trust by Seller shall be accounted for (including any interest
required on such funds) and transferred to Purchaser at Closing. Seller shall
furnish to Purchaser on or before the Closing a list, by Facility, of all
security and rent deposits and other patient and tenant funds held by Seller,
which list shall also indicate the rent status of each patient or tenant,
certified to by an officer of the general partner of Seller, which list Seller
warrants will be true and correct. Upon transfer thereof at Closing, Purchaser
agrees to maintain, repay and/or return such security and rent deposits in
accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions and requirements under
<PAGE>
which they are now being held by Seller and as imposed by applicable law or
regulation.
12. CASUALTY.
--------
12.1 Major Damage. If any Facility, or a portion thereof, shall be
damaged or destroyed by reason of any casualty or other cause prior to the
Closing, Seller shall give Purchaser written notice of such damage or
destruction within ten (10) days of the occurrence thereof and in all events
prior to the Closing Date. Within twenty (20) days of the occurrence of such
damage or destruction, Seller shall submit to Purchaser Seller's reasonable
estimate of the cost to repair such damage or destruction and its estimate of
the loss of operating revenues due to such damage (collectively, "Seller's
Expense Estimate") and the basis for such estimate. If Seller's Expense Estimate
is equal to or in excess of Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000) ("Major Damage")
with respect to any Facility, then Purchaser, at Purchaser's option, may either:
(i) elect, within twenty (20) days after the determination of the repair cost in
accordance with Section 12.3 hereof, to terminate this Agreement, and the
parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for those
which expressly survive any such termination; or (ii) proceed to complete the
transactions contemplated under this Agreement and be entitled to the insurance
proceeds payable in the event of such damage or destruction plus any deductible
which shall be paid by Seller to Purchaser at Closing. If Purchaser does not
make the election set forth in subparagraph (i) above within the applicable
twenty (20) day period, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected option
(ii) set forth above.
12.2 Other Damage. If Seller's Expense Estimate is less than Twenty
Thousand Dollars ($20,000) for each Facility and such damage or destruction is
covered by Seller's insurance coverage, Seller shall pay such applicable
insurance proceeds, plus the amount of any applicable deductible, to Purchaser
at Closing. If (i) such damage or destruction is not covered by Seller's
insurance coverage, or (ii) such insurance proceeds are insufficient to cover
the cost of repairing such damage or destruction and Seller does not pay such
deficiency to Purchaser at Closing, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by
an amount equal to the cost of restoring the Premises in the case of
subparagraph (i), or the amount of such deficiency in the case of subparagraph
(ii).
12.3 Determination of Repair Cost. If Purchaser disagrees with Seller's
Expense Estimate, Purchaser shall give written notice of such dispute to Seller
within then (10) days after Seller submits Seller's Expense Estimate to
Purchaser. Upon receipt of such notice, Seller and Purchaser shall promptly
retain an appraiser acceptable to both Seller and Purchaser, the cost of such
appraisal being borne equally by Seller and Purchaser, and such appraiser shall
determine the cost of repairing such damage or destruction and the lost
operating revenues as a result thereof, which cost shall include all
professional fees incurred in connection therewith. Seller and Purchaser agree
that the determination by such appraiser of such costs shall be conclusive as to
both Seller and Purchaser.
13. CONDEMNATION. If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any portion of any
Facility shall be taken by any governmental authority under its power of eminent
domain, Purchaser shall have the option (to be exercised by written notice
24
<PAGE>
given to Seller not later than twenty (20) business days following Purchaser's
receipt of notice of such taking) to:
(i) Accept the Assets on the Closing date without any
abatement or adjustment in the Purchase Price, in which event
Purchaser shall have the right to participate in any
settlement or compromise with such taking authority and Seller
shall assign its rights in the condemnation award to the
Purchaser (or Purchaser shall receive the condemnation award
from Seller if it has already been paid before the Closing
Date); or
(ii) If, and only if, in Purchaser's reasonable
opinion, any Facility subject to such taking cannot be
operated in substantially the same manner operated by Seller
prior to such taking, Purchaser may elect to terminate this
Agreement, and the parties shall have no further rights or
obligations hereunder, except for those which expressly
survive any such termination.
If the Purchaser does not make the election set forth in subparagraph (ii) above
within the applicable twenty (20) day period, then Purchaser shall be deemed to
have elected option (i) set forth above.
14. DEFAULT. In the event of a material misrepresentation by Seller in this
Agreement, or a material breach of any warranty or covenant in this Agreement,
or other default under this Agreement by Seller prior to Closing, and Seller's
failure to rectify such misrepresentation, breach or default within ten (10)
days after receipt of notice thereof from Purchaser, then Purchaser shall have
the right, upon written notice to Seller, to rescind this Agreement and be
entitled to such remedies as shall be provided by law, including the recovery of
reasonable attorneys' fees.
Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Assets are unique and not
available on the open market and that Purchaser will be seriously and
irreparably injured in the event this Agreement is not specifically performed by
Seller and the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated. Both
parties further agree that it may be difficult and impractical to measure in
money the damages, which will accrue by reason of a refusal by Seller to perform
their obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, Seller acknowledges and
agrees that, in lieu of rescission and recourse to such remedies as shall be
provided by law, Purchaser shall be entitled to specific performance of this
Agreement by Seller, and Seller hereby consents thereto. In the event that
Purchaser shall institute any actions specifically to enforce Seller's
performance under this Agreement, Seller hereby agrees to waive the defense that
Purchaser has an adequate remedy at law.
15. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. All statements of fact
contained in this Agreement, or in any certificate or other document delivered
by or on behalf of one party to this Agreement to the other pursuant to this
Agreement or in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, shall be
deemed representations and warranties by such party making such statement of
fact. Each party understands that the other party has relied on each said
representations and warranties in entering into this Agreement. Notwithstanding
25
<PAGE>
any investigations made by or on behalf of Seller or Purchaser or any
distribution in liquidation, dissolution, or other voluntary or involuntary act
of Seller or Purchaser, the representations and warranties contained in this
Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months (except
Section 6.3.5 which shall survive for thirty-six (36) months) following the
Closing notwithstanding the execution and delivery of the documents transferring
title to the Assets to Purchaser or the consummation of the other transactions
contemplated herein, whereupon such representations and warranties shall become
unenforceable except to the extent that notice of a claim relating to such
representations and warranties has been given pursuant to Section 16.3 hereof
prior to the expiration of such 12-month period.
16. INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS.
--------------------------
16.1 Indemnification of Purchaser. If the Closing occurs, Seller shall
defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Purchaser and any Affiliate of Purchaser
against all damages, punitive damages, civil and criminal monetary penalties,
losses and reasonable expenses, including any reasonable attorneys' and other
professional fees (hereinafter referred to collectively as "Liabilities") in
connection with any of the following matters:
16.1.1 Misrepresentation, Etc.. Any and all Liabilities
arising out of or related to any breach of the agreements,
representations, warranties, or covenants by Seller in this Agreement,
provided, however, that Purchaser's right to indemnification hereunder
for Liabilities arising out of or related to any breach of such
Seller's representations and warranties shall be limited to claims
asserted by Purchaser in accordance with Section 16.3 hereof during the
period during which said representations and warranties survive the
Closing provided under Section 15 hereof.
16.1.2 Audits, Investigations, Refund Obligations, and Other
Pre-Closing Liabilities. Any and all Liabilities arising out of or
related to any of the following: (i) any audit or investigation by any
governmental authority or administrative agency concerning the
operation of any Facility and other Assets owned by Seller prior to the
Closing or any amounts paid to Seller prior to the Closing; (ii) any
assessments, adjustments or offsets made against Purchaser or any
Facility and other Assets owned by Seller as a result of such an audit
or investigation or in connection with the recovery by such
governmental authority or administrative agency of any overpayments
made to Seller for services performed prior to Closing or any
depreciation recapture applicable to the period prior to Closing; (iii)
any reasonable costs of defense of, and any judgment against Purchaser
with respect to, any litigation relating to the operation of the Assets
owned by Seller prior to the Closing; (iv) any suit, claim, or
proceeding brought by any Person (including, without limitation, any
employee or former employee of Seller) of any nature seeking to recover
damages for personal injury, death, or property damage due or alleged
to be due to occurrences in connection with the operation of the Assets
owned by Seller prior to the Closing; and (v) any other liability,
damage, cost, claim, expense, or assessment asserted against Purchaser
or the Assets owned by Seller (other than those liabilities
specifically assumed by Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof) as a
26
<PAGE>
result of, or with respect to Seller's ownership or operation of the
Assets prior to the Closing.
16.1.3 Indemnification Limitation. Anything contained in this
Section 16.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligation of Seller
to indemnify Purchaser hereunder shall arise only at such time as
Purchaser shall have paid the cumulative sum of $10,000 as the result
of any matter or matters occurring under Sections 16.1.1 and 16.1.2
hereof, in which event the indemnity obligations of Seller hereunder
shall exist only to the extent that such payments, in the aggregate,
exceed the sum of $10,000. Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify
the Purchaser for any specific item which is covered by the title
insurance delivered to Purchaser at Closing.
16.2 Indemnification of Seller. If the Closing occurs, Purchaser shall
defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and any Affiliate of Seller against
all Liabilities (as defined in Section 16.1 hereof) in connection with any of
the following matters:
16.2.1 Misrepresentations, Etc.. Any and all Liabilities
arising out of or related to any breach of the agreement,
representations, warranties or covenants of Purchaser in this
Agreement, provided, however, that Seller's right to indemnification
hereunder for Liabilities arising out of or related to any breach of
Purchaser's representations and warranties shall be limited to claims
asserted by Seller in accordance with Section 16.3 hereof during the
period during which said representations and warranties survive the
Closing as provided in Section 15 hereof.
16.2.2 Audits, Investigations and Other Post-Closing
Liabilities. Any and all Liabilities arising out of or related to any
of the following: (i) any audit or investigation by any governmental
authority or administrative agency concerning the operation of any
Facility and other Assets by Purchaser subsequent to the Closing or any
amounts paid to Purchaser subsequent thereto; (ii) any assessments,
adjustments or offsets made against Seller as a result of any such
audit or investigation; (iii) any reasonable costs of defense of, and
any judgment against Seller with respect to, any litigation relating to
the operation of the Assets by Purchaser subsequent to the Closing;
(iv) any suit, claim or proceeding brought by any Person of any nature
seeking to recover damages, for personal injury, death or property
damage due or alleged to be due to occurrences in connection with the
operation of the Assets subsequent to the Closing; and (v) any other
liability, damage, cost, claim, expense or assessment asserted against
Seller as a result of, or with respect to, Purchaser's operation of the
Assets subsequent to the Closing.
16.3 Notice and Defense of Claims. A party claiming indemnification
under this Agreement (the "Asserting Party") must promptly notify in writing the
party from which indemnification is sought (the "Defending Party") of the nature
and basis of such claim for indemnification. If such claim relates to a claim,
litigation or other action by a third party against the Asserting Party, or any
fixed or contingent liability to a third party (a "Third Party Claim"), the
Defending Party may elect to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim within
27
<PAGE>
a reasonable time after receipt of the notice referred to above at its own
expense with counsel selected by the Defending Party and approved by the
Asserting Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;
provided, however, that if any claim for indemnification under this Agreement is
covered by the Defending Party's applicable insurance coverage, then the
assumption of such defense and the selection of counsel shall be governed by the
applicable insurance coverage. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Defending
Party may not assume the defense if the named parties to the Third Party Claim
(including any impleaded parties) include both the Defending Party and the
Asserting Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, in
which case the Asserting Party shall have the right to employ counsel approved
by the Defending Party at the expense of the Defending Party. If the Defending
Party, or the Defending Party's applicable insurer, assumes the defense of the
Third Party Claim, the Defending Party shall not be liable for any fees and
expenses of counsel for the Asserting Party incurred thereafter in connection
with the Third Party Claim.
