subsidiaries, owns a diversified portfolio of office buildings and senior

separation, to transfer all of the stock of HRPT subsidiaries holding senior
housing properties to Senior Housing, to accept $200,000,000 of indebtedness of
Senior Housing and certain of its subsidiaries as partial consideration for such
transfers, and to distribute a majority of the outstanding common shares of
beneficial interest of Senior Housing held by HRPT to the holders of common
shares of beneficial interest of HRPT as a special distribution. As part of this
separation transaction and distribution, HRPT and Senior Housing will assume
certain obligations under this Agreement.

in connection with (i) the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the preservation for each party and
for the Transferred Subsidiaries, to the extent reasonably feasible,
the benefits of this Agreement (including, in the case of Senior
Housing and the Transferred Subsidiaries, the economic and operational
benefits of the Senior Housing Assets), (ii) the continued
qualification of each of HRPT and Senior Housing as a real estate
investment trust under the Code, including the enforcement of the
ownership limitations and other provisions of their respective
declarations of trust relating to the preservation of the status of
each of HRPT and Senior Housing as a real estate investment trust under
the Code, (iii) each party's preparation and filing of any original or
amended Tax Return, (iv) the conduct of any audit, appeal, protest or

(b) HRPT and Senior Housing shall retain or cause to be
retained all books, records and other documents within its possession
relating to the Premises, the Tenant Leases or the Contracts or
otherwise to the Transferred Subsidiaries or their properties, assets
or liabilities, and all Tax Returns, and all books, records, schedules,
workpapers, and other documents relating thereto, which Tax Returns and
other materials are within the scope of this Agreement, until the
expiration of the later of (i) all applicable statutes of limitations
(including any waivers or extensions thereof), and (ii) any retention
period required by law or pursuant to any record retention agreement.
The parties hereto shall provide at least thirty (30) days prior
written notice of any intended destruction of the documents referred to
in the preceding sentence. A party giving such a notification shall not
dispose of any of the foregoing materials without first allowing the
other party a reasonable opportunity to copy them at such other party's
expense.
3.3 Repayment of Senior Housing Formation Debt.
(a) As soon as practicable after the Distribution, but not
later than the Deferred Payment Date, Senior Housing shall pay or cause
SPTMRT Properties Trust to pay the Deferred Payment in full, together
with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in accordance with the
terms hereof and the Note. Senior Housing represents and warrants to
HRPT that, after giving effect to the Distribution and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by Sections 2.1 and 2.2, Senior
Housing will have the right to borrow at least $200,000,000 under the
Senior Housing Credit Facility and agrees to maintain that borrowing
availability until the Deferred Payment and all accrued interest
thereon has been paid in full; provided that the obligations of Senior
Housing and SPTMRT Properties Trust to pay the Deferred Payment and
interest thereon shall not be limited to amounts available to be
borrowed under the Senior Housing Credit Facility and shall not be
conditioned on the availability of funds thereunder.
(b) In the event that any portion of the Deferred Payment and
all accrued interest thereon remains unpaid on the Deferred Payment
Date, Senior Housing agrees to cause SPTMRT Properties Trust to, and by
its joinder to this Agreement below, SPTMRT Properties Trust agrees to,
secure the obligations of Senior Housing and of SPTMRT Properties Trust
to pay the Deferred Payment and all interest accrued or to accrue
thereon within 10 days following the Deferred Payment Date (and in any
event by December 31, 1999) with a perfected, first mortgage lien on
the Premises owned by SPTMRT Properties Trust on September 1, 1999 and
perfected first assignments of and security interests in all Tenant
Leases, all Contracts and other personal property, fixtures and other
assets and rights related to the ownership, operation and leasing of
these Premises, pursuant to any mortgages, assignments, securities
agreements, financing statements and other security documents which may
reasonably be requested by HRPT from time to time. Senior Housing and,
by its joinder to this Agreement below, SPTMRT Properties Trust
acknowledges and agrees that the performance of its obligations under
this Section 3.3 may be necessary for HRPT's continuing qualification
as a real estate investment trust under the Code, that monetary damages
would be insufficient to compensate HRPT for a breach by Senior Housing
or SPTMRT Properties Trust of these obligations and, accordingly, that
HRPT shall be entitled,
-11-
<PAGE>
to the extent permitted by law, to request and obtain specific
performance of the obligations of Senior Housing and SPTMRT Properties
Trust under this Section 3.3 and to injunctive relief requiring such
performance.
3.4 Covenants to Maintain REIT Qualification. For so long as HRPT owns
more than 9.8% of the outstanding Senior Housing Common Shares or 9.8% by value
of the outstanding equity of Senior Housing, (a) HRPT will not acquire or own
more than 9.8% of the equity (measured by vote, value, capital interests or
profits interests) of any tenant of any member of the Senior Housing Group, (b)
HRPT will not consent to any Person owning more than 9.8% of the outstanding
beneficial interests in HRPT if the effect of such ownership would result in
rents received by any member of the Senior Housing Group to not qualify as
"rents from real property" within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, and
(c) HRPT will not take any other action which, in the reasonable judgment of the
Senior Housing Board, would reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on
the ability of Senior Housing to qualify as a "real estate investment trust"
under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. For so long as HRPT owns more than
9.8% of the outstanding Senior Housing Common Shares or 9.8% by value of the
outstanding equity of Senior Housing, (a) Senior Housing will not acquire or own
more than 9.8% of the equity (measured by vote, value, capital interests or
profits interests) of any tenant of any member of the HRPT Group, and (b) Senior
Housing will not take any other action which, in the reasonable judgment of the
HRPT Board, would reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on the
ability of HRPT to qualify as a "real estate investment trust" under Sections
856 through 860 of the Code.
3.5 Transfer of Senior Housing Shares. During the period ending on the
first anniversary of the Distribution Date, HRPT will not sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any of the Senior Housing common shares owned by it on the
Distribution Date (after giving effect to the Distribution) without the prior
approval of a majority of the Senior Housing Independent Trustees.
SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION DATE ALLOCATIONS.
4.1 GAAP Allocations. For accounting purposes, all items of income and
expense relating to the Transferred Subsidiaries shall be allocated to HRPT in
respect of periods prior to (but excluding) the Distribution Date, and to Senior
Housing for all periods commencing on and after the Distribution Date.
4.2 Cash Allocations. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 4.1,
the parties agree that:
(a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection 4.2(c) below,
HRPT shall be entitled to receive and retain all cash and cash
equivalents (including the proceeds of checks received or in process of
collection and of tenant security deposits) of the Transferred
Subsidiaries at the time of the Distribution, regardless of whether
such cash or cash equivalents represent the proceeds of payments in
respect of the Premises, the Tenant Leases or the Contracts which
relate to periods which fall in whole or in part on or after the
Distribution Date (and Senior Housing acknowledges that it and the
Transferred Subsidiaries will declare a dividend of such cash and cash
equivalents payable to HRPT as holder of
-12-
<PAGE>
record of Senior Housing Common Shares prior to the Distribution Date,
even though such dividend may be payable on or after the Distribution
Date);
(b) Senior Housing and the Transferred Subsidiaries shall be
entitled to receive and retain all payments in respect of the Premises,
the Tenant Leases and the Contracts which are received by the
Transferred Subsidiaries from and after the Distribution Date,
regardless of whether the payment relates to periods which fall in
whole or in part prior to the Distribution Date; and
(c) Senior Housing and the Transferred Subsidiaries shall be
entitled to retain, and HRPT shall transfer to Senior Housing or the
applicable Transferred Subsidiaries, any tenant, guarantor or similar
deposits which are required pursuant to a Tenant Lease or a Contract to
be maintained in a segregated escrow account, and thereafter Senior
Housing or the applicable Transferred Subsidiary shall agree to hold
and maintain such deposits in accordance with the applicable Tenant
Lease or Contract. Any tenant, guarantor or similar deposits pursuant
to any Tenant Lease or Contract which are not required to be maintained
in a segregated escrow account will be retained by HRPT, but Senior
Housing or the applicable Transferred Subsidiary will assume any
obligations to return or repay such deposits in accordance with the
applicable Tenant Lease or Contract.
4.3 No Other Prorations. Except as expressly provided in Section 4.1,
4.2 or 6, there shall be no proration, as between HRPT and its Subsidiaries
(exclusive of Senior Housing and the Transferred Subsidiaries), on the one hand,
and Senior Housing and the Transferred Subsidiaries, on the other, in respect of
rents, common area maintenance charges or other fixed or unfixed charges payable
under the Tenant Leases, fuel, electric, water or other utility costs, municipal
assessments or governmental license or permit fees, real estate Taxes or
assessments, water rates or charges, sewer Taxes or rents, or any other item of
income or expense relating to the Premises (or for any adjustments arrearages
therein or refunds thereof). No insurance policies of HRPT or its Subsidiaries
are to be transferred to Senior Housing and the Transferred Subsidiaries, and no
apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.
SECTION 5 SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION.
5.1 Indemnification by HRPT. From and after the Distribution Date, HRPT
shall indemnify and hold harmless Senior Housing, its Subsidiaries (including
the Transferred Subsidiaries), each of their respective directors, trustees,
officers, employees and agents, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and
assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the "Senior Housing Indemnified
Parties") from and against any and all damages, claims, losses, expenses, costs,
obligations and liabilities, including liabilities for all reasonable
attorneys', accountants', and experts' fees and expenses, including those
incurred to enforce the terms of this Agreement (collectively, "Covered
Liabilities"), suffered, directly or indirectly, by any Senior Housing
Indemnified Party by reason of, or arising out of:
(a) any breach of any covenant or agreement of HRPT contained
in this Agreement; or
-13-
<PAGE>
(b) any Retained Liability.
5.2 Indemnification by Senior Housing. From and after the Distribution
Date, Senior Housing shall indemnify and hold harmless HRPT, its Subsidiaries,
each of their respective directors, trustees, officers, employees and agents,
and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing
(collectively, the "HRPT Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all
Covered Liabilities suffered, directly or indirectly, by any HRPT Indemnified
Party by reason of, or arising out of:
(a) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Senior Housing
contained in this Agreement; or
(b) any Senior Housing Liability.
5.3 Indemnification Procedures.
(a) If any indemnified party receives notice of the assertion
of any Third-Party Claim with respect to which an indemnifying party is
obligated under this Agreement to provide indemnification, such
indemnified party shall give such indemnifying party written notice
thereof (together with a copy of such Third-Party Claim, process or
other legal pleading) promptly after becoming aware of such Third-Party
Claim; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to
give notice as provided in this Section 5.3 shall not relieve any
indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 5, except to
the extent that such indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such
failure to give notice. Such notice shall describe such Third-Party
Claim in reasonable detail.
(b) An indemnifying party, at such indemnifying party's own
expense and through counsel chosen by such indemnifying party (which
counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party), may
elect to defend any Third-Party Claim. If an indemnifying party elects
to defend a Third-Party Claim, then, within ten (10) business days
after receiving notice of such Third-Party Claim (or sooner, if the
nature of such Third-Party claim so requires), such indemnifying party
shall notify the indemnified party of its intent to do so, and such
indemnified party shall cooperate in the defense of such Third-Party
Claim (and pending such notice and assumption of defense, an
indemnified party may take such steps to defend against such
Third-Party Claim as, in such indemnified party's good-faith judgment,
are appropriate to protect its interests). The indemnifying party shall
pay such indemnified party's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred
in connection with such cooperation. After notice from an indemnifying
party to an indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of
a Third-Party Claim, such indemnifying party (i) shall not be liable to
such indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other
expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with the defense thereof other than those expenses referred to in the
preceding sentence, and (ii) shall keep the indemnified party
reasonably informed of the status of the defense of such Third-Party
Claim; provided, however, that such indemnified party shall have the
right to employ one law firm as counsel, together with a separate local
law firm in each applicable jurisdiction ("Separate Counsel"),
-14-
<PAGE>
to represent such indemnified party in any action or group of related
actions (which firm or firms shall be reasonably acceptable to the
indemnifying party) if, in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment
at any time, either a conflict of interest between such indemnified
party and such indemnifying party exists in respect of such claim, or
there may be defenses available to such indemnified party which are
different from or in addition to those available to such indemnifying
party and the representation of both parties by the same counsel would
be inappropriate, and in that event (i) the reasonable fees and
expenses of such Separate Counsel shall be paid by such indemnifying
party (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall
not be liable for the expenses of more than one Separate Counsel
(excluding local counsel) with respect to any Third-Party Claim (even
if against multiple indemnified parties), and (ii) each of such
indemnifying party and such indemnified party shall have the right to
conduct its own defense in respect of such claim. If an indemnifying
party elects not to defend against a Third-Party Claim, or fails to
notify an indemnified party of its election as provided in this Section
5.3 within the period of ten (10) (or, if applicable, fewer) business
days described above, the indemnified party may defend, compromise, and
settle such Third-Party Claim and shall be entitled to indemnification
hereunder (to the extent permitted hereunder); provided, however, that
no such indemnified party may compromise or settle any such Third-Party
claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall not,
without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, (i) settle
or compromise any Third-Party Claim or consent to the entry of any
judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the
delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the indemnified party of a
written release from all liability in respect of such Third-Party
Claim, or (ii) settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim in any manner
that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on
the indemnified party.
5.4 Certain Limitations, Etc.
(a) The amount of any Covered Liabilities for which
indemnification is provided under this Agreement shall be net of any
amounts actually recovered by the indemnified party from third parties
(including amounts actually recovered under insurance policies) with
respect to such Covered Liabilities. Any indemnifying party hereunder
shall be subrogated to the rights of the indemnified party upon payment
in full of the amount of the relevant indemnifiable loss. An insurer
who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved
of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the
indemnification provision hereof, have any subrogation rights with
respect thereto. If any indemnified party recovers an amount from a
third party in respect of an indemnifiable loss for which
indemnification is provided in this Agreement after the full amount of
such indemnifiable loss has been paid by an indemnifying party or after
an indemnifying party has made a partial payment of such indemnifiable
loss and the amount received from the third party exceeds the remaining
unpaid balance of such indemnifiable loss, then the indemnified party
shall promptly remit to the indemnifying party the excess of (i) the
sum of the amount theretofore paid by such indemnifying party in
respect of such indemnifiable loss plus the
-15-
<PAGE>
amount received from the third party in respect thereof, less (ii) the
full amount of such Covered Liabilities.
(b) NO REMEDY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR AT LAW OR IN EQUITY
SHALL INCLUDE, PROVIDE FOR OR PERMIT THE PAYMENT OF MULTIPLE,
EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY EQUITABLE
EQUIVALENT THEREOF OR SUBSTITUTE THEREFOR.
5.5 Priority of Section 6. As to the Tax matters addressed in Section
6, including the indemnification for Taxes and the control and conduct of Tax
Contests, the provisions of Section 6 shall be the exclusive governing
provisions.
SECTION 6 TAX MATTERS.
6.1 General Responsibility for Taxes.
(a) All federal Income Taxes of the HRPT Group shall be borne
by, shall be the responsibility of, and shall be paid by HRPT, and all
federal Income Taxes of the Senior Housing Group shall be borne by,
shall be the responsibility of, and shall be paid by Senior Housing.
For purposes of federal Income Taxes, items of income, gain, loss,
deduction, expenditure, and credit shall be allocated and apportioned
between the HRPT Group and the Senior Housing Group in the following
manner. Any item relating to the Senior Housing Assets or the Senior
Housing Business shall be: (i) allocated exclusively to the HRPT Group
if such item is in respect of a period ending before the Distribution
Date; (ii) allocated exclusively to the Senior Housing Group if such
item is in respect of a period commencing after the Distribution Date;
and (iii) apportioned between the HRPT Group and the Senior Housing
Group in a manner consistent with (A) applicable Tax laws, (B) the
continued qualification of both HRPT and Senior Housing as real estate
investment trusts under the Code, and (C) commercially reasonable pro
rations of items between buyers and sellers of real estate, if such
item is in respect of a period that includes the Distribution Date.
(b) For any state or local Income Tax that follows Section
856(i) of the Code (i) such state and local Income Taxes of the HRPT
Group shall be borne by, shall be the responsibility of, and shall be
paid by HRPT, and (ii) such state and local Income Taxes of the Senior
Housing Group shall be borne by, shall be the responsibility of, and
shall be paid by Senior Housing. For purposes of such state and local
Income Taxes, items of income, gain, loss, deduction, expenditure, and
credit shall be allocated and apportioned between the HRPT Group and
the Senior Housing Group in the same manner as Section 6.1(a).
(c) HRPT shall hold Senior Housing harmless from and against
all Taxes which are to be borne by HRPT under Section 6.1. Senior
Housing shall hold HRPT harmless from and against all Taxes which are
to be borne by Senior Housing under Section 6.1.
6.2 Allocation of Certain Taxes Among Taxable Periods. HRPT and Senior
Housing agree that if Senior Housing or any member of the Senior Housing Group
is permitted but not
-16-
<PAGE>
required under any applicable Tax law, including applicable state and local
Income Tax laws, to treat the day before the Distribution Date or the
Distribution Date as the last day of a Taxable period, HRPT and Senior Housing
shall cooperate so that such day will be treated as the last day of a Taxable
period.
6.3 Filing and Payment Responsibility.
(a) From and after the Distribution Date, each of HRPT (on
behalf of the HRPT Group) and Senior Housing (on behalf of the Senior
Housing Group) shall cause to be prepared and filed such Tax Returns as
the HRPT Group and the Senior Housing Group, respectively, are required
to file with applicable Taxing Authorities. Each of HRPT (on behalf of
the HRPT Group) and Senior Housing (on behalf of the Senior Housing
Group) agree that, except as required by applicable law, they will not
take positions in any such Tax Return that are inconsistent with (i)
the description of federal Income Tax consequences in the Senior
Housing Registration Statement and (ii) any other Tax Return, whether
filed on behalf of the HRPT Group or the Senior Housing Group,
previously or substantially contemporaneously filed with such Tax
Return. In particular, the parties will use all reasonable business
efforts to cooperate with one another in valuing the individual assets
comprising the Senior Housing Assets on the Distribution Date, to the
extent such valuations are necessary for Tax purposes.
(b) To the extent that either of the HRPT Group or the Senior
Housing Group bears responsibility pursuant to Section 6.1 for some or
all of a Tax which is to be paid with a Tax Return for which the other
bears preparation and filing responsibility pursuant to Section 6.3,
then (i) the party bearing responsibility for some or all of such Tax
shall have the right to review and comment upon such Tax Return at
least fifteen (15) days before such Tax Return must be filed, and (ii)
the party bearing responsibility for some or all of such Tax shall pay
over by wire transfer the amount of such Tax for which it is
responsible to the party filing such Tax Return at least three (3) days
before such Tax Return must be filed, and (iii) the party responsible
for preparing and filing such Tax Return will file such Tax Return on
or before its due date and pay over to the applicable Taxing Authority
the amount of Tax due with such Tax Return.
6.4 Refunds and Credits. Any refunds or credits of Taxes shall be for
the account of the party bearing responsibility for such Taxes under Section
6.1. Each of HRPT and Senior Housing agrees that if as the result of any audit
adjustment made by any Taxing Authority with respect to a Tax to be borne by the
other party under Section 6.1, any member of the HRPT Group or the Senior
Housing Group, respectively, receives a Tax benefit in the form of a cash refund
or in the form of a credit applicable against Tax liabilities to be borne by
such benefited party under this Section 6, then the benefited party shall notify
the other party of the same within ten (10) days of, as applicable, receiving
the cash refund or filing the Tax Return in which such credit is utilized, and
then pay over immediately to such other party the amount of such Tax refund or
credit.
6.5 Tax Contests. If either HRPT (on behalf of the HRPT Group) or
Senior Housing (on behalf of the Senior Housing Group) becomes aware of any
audit, pending or threatened assessment,
-17-
<PAGE>
official inquiry, examination or proceeding ("Tax Contests") that could result
in an official determination with respect to Taxes due or payable the
responsibility for any portion of which rests with the other party, such party
shall promptly so notify the other party in writing. The party bearing greater
responsibility for the Taxes contested in a Tax Contest shall bear the costs
(including attorneys' and accountants' fees, but excluding the contested Taxes)
of such Tax Contest, and shall control and conduct such Tax Contest in a
reasonable manner after consulting in good faith with the other party. The other
party shall supply the party controlling the Tax contest with such powers of
attorney and assistance as may be reasonably requested. The responsibility for
any additional liability for Taxes resulting from a Tax Contest shall be
allocated and apportioned between the HRPT Group and the Senior Housing Group in
accordance with Section 6.1. Except to the extent in conflict with the
provisions of this Section 6, the provisions of Section 5.3 shall be applicable
to Tax Contests.
6.6 Resolution of Disputes. At the request of either HRPT or Senior
Housing, any disputes between HRPT (on behalf of the HRPT Group) and Senior
Housing (on behalf of the Senior Housing Group) with respect to matters governed
by this Section 6 shall be resolved through an arbitration by a firm of
independent certified public accountants, mutually agreed upon by HRPT and
Senior Housing and having no material relationship with either HRPT or Senior
Housing, whose determination shall be final and binding on both parties. The
cost of such firm shall be borne equally by HRPT and Senior Housing.
SECTION 7 MISCELLANEOUS.

disagreements arising out of or relating to this Agreement, other than actions

required by applicable law or the rules and regulations of the New York Stock
Exchange) disclose such information, subject to the provisions of this Section,
to anyone other than those people who have a need to know such information in
connection with the conduct of such party's business, including

by a written instrument signed by the party waiving compliance. No waiver by any
party hereto of any of the requirements hereof or of any of such party's rights
hereunder shall release the other parties from full performance of their
remaining obligations stated herein. No failure to exercise or delay in

7.6 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as
applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, or in all
jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the conflict of any provision with any
constitution or statute or rule of public policy or for any other reason, such
circumstance shall not have the effect of rendering the provision or provisions
in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or
in any other case or circumstance or of rendering any other provision or
provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to the extent
that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with such

of any term of this Note may only be waived by a written instrument duly

any of its rights, remedies, powers or privileges hereunder in any instance
