Item 1. Business
The Chestnut Partnership ("Partnership"), a Maryland general
partnership, was organized June 3, 1988, for the purpose of developing,
marketing, constructing, equipping, and operating a life-care
retirement community designed for the elderly to be located in the
Ruxton-Riderwood area near Towson, Baltimore County, Maryland, known as
Blakehurst ("Project or Community").
The Chestnut Real Estate Partnership ("Real Estate Partnership") a
Maryland general partnership, was organized on April 25, 1990, to own
the real estate of the Partnership. Real Estate Partnership has two
general partners, each owning 50%, West Joppa Road Limited Partnership
("West Joppa") and Blakehurst Joint Venture ("BJV") (together the
"partners").
On April 25, 1990, by assignment of interest from Partnership, Real
Estate Partnership received 98% of the partners' interest in
Partnership. Partnership and Real Estate Partnership have entered into
an operating and use agreement which obligates Partnership to develop,
operate, and manage the project at Partnership's expense. Real Estate
Partnership guarantees the performance by Partnership of all its
obligations under the Residency Agreements.
A life-care retirement community such as Blakehurst is intended to
address the needs of individuals, age 62 or older, who are in good
health but who no longer desire to reside in their own homes or
apartments. Fully-equipped private living units are provided together
with a variety of services, such as housekeeping, maintenance, and meal
arrangements which ease such everyday burdens as shopping, cooking, and
cleaning and substantially relieves senior adults of the burden of
procuring such goods and services themselves or relying on family
members or others to do so. In addition, residents are provided with
skilled nursing services and limited medical services through a health
care center that is part of the facility.
The Community is being built in several phases. The first phase of the
Community ("Phase I") consists of 177 residential units, a dining room,
a clubhouse, and a health care center with 36 comprehensive care beds
and 14 domiciliary care units. Cessation of major construction activity
associated with Phase I occurred in December 1993. The Community
commenced occupancy in late summer 1993 and by December 31, 1993 was
60%. Occupancy was 75% at December 31, 1994. Occupancy increased to 87%
by December 31, 1995, and at December 31, 1996, was 92%.
In Phase II, an auditorium was constructed and renovation of a carriage
house occurred in late 1995 and early 1996. The auditorium and
renovation were essentially completed in March 1996.
The Partnership filed with the Maryland Office on Aging, on February
28, 1996, an Application for Preliminary Certificate of Registration
for Phase III. The Application was approved on April 30, 1996. Phase
III will consist of a 35 apartment unit addition, surface garages and
under-building parking spaces, an enclosed swimming pool, an exercise
room and additional surface parking. Construction began in August 1996
and is scheduled to be completed in August 1997. As of December 31,
1996, all 35 apartment units had been reserved by receipt of the
Partnership of 10% of the ultimate Entrance Payments.
As of December 31, 1996, the Community had 117 full-time equivalent
employees, an increase in the year of 10 full-time equivalent
employees, none of whom were members of a collective bargaining
agreement.
THE PROJECT
The 177 Phase I residential units are in a six-story building with four
wings. The adjacent clubhouse includes the dining room, administrative
offices, a convenience shop, a library, a billiard room, an arts and
crafts studio, an exercise room, a beauty/barber shop, and a
woodworking shop. The residential units consist of a mixture of
one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. Each unit has complete kitchen
facilities with major appliances, individually controlled air
conditioning, and heating, carpet, and other amenities, and has been
designed with the special physical needs of the elderly in mind. Grab
rails are provided in all bathrooms; doors and cabinets are accessible
to persons in wheelchairs; and each bedroom and bathroom is equipped
with an emergency call system linked to the health care center. In
addition, each residential unit is equipped with safety features, such
as a sprinkler system and smoke alarm.
The following table sets forth information with respect to the types of
residential units available in Phase I at the community:

Two-Bedroom (48) 1,028
Two-Bedroom Custom (10) 1,093
Two-Bedroom Deluxe (39) 1,233
Two-Bedroom Grand (23) 1,520
The health care center contains 36 comprehensive care beds, consisting
of 24 semiprivate beds and 12 private beds. This portion of the
Community contains all equipment and services necessary to provide
temporary to long-term nursing care. The health care center also
contains 14 domiciliary care units, each consisting of a private studio
apartment with bath and combination living/sleeping area. A domiciliary
care unit resident receives assistance with day to day tasks and
benefits from 24-hour supervision by the health care center staff.
The health care center contains a dining room, a physical therapy room,
an arts and crafts therapy area, and an outpatient clinic for use by
all community residents. Health care center residents who are able will
have ready access to other common areas of the facility, and thus to
the Community's recreational and social life.
The auditorium and renovated carriage house provide additional commons
areas for the resident activities.
Phase III will consist of 35 apartment units, 12 surface garages, 20
under-building garage spaces, an enclosed swimming pool, an exercise
room and additional surface parking.

ADMISSION OF RESIDENTS
In order to be accepted for residency in a residential unit at the
Community, a resident must execute a residency agreement (the
"Residency Agreement"). The Residency Agreement is a contract which
describes the rights and obligations of the resident and the
Partnership in connection with residency at the Community.
In 1994, the Community began offering a limited number of a second type
of Residency Agreement ("Traditional Plan") in addition to its original
Residency Agreement ("Return of Capital Plan"). The criteria for
admission to the community is identical under either plan. The plans
are different as to economic terms and conditions, however. The
Traditional Plan requires a lower Entrance Payment on certain units for
which it is offered, than the Entrance Payment under the Return of
Capital Plan. The Return of Capital Plan defines a portion of the
Entrance Payment received from the new resident as a loan that must be
repaid after the resident leaves the Community. The Traditional Plan,
however, does not have a loan and limits any refund based on time at
the Community--the longer the time in residency, the lower the refund.
After 50 months the Traditional Plan holder does not receive a refund.
In order to be accepted for residency in the Community, a resident must
be at least 62 years old or the spouse of a resident who is at least 62
years old, capable of independent living, be free of communicable
disease and have assets and income sufficient to pay the entrance
payments, the monthly fees and other ordinary and customary living
expenses.
The Residency Agreement requires at least one resident of each
residential unit who is at least 65 years old to be entitled to
Medicare Part A benefits, to be enrolled in the Medicare Part B program
at the time of initial occupancy, and to maintain coverage under
Medicare Part A, Medicare Part B, and one health insurance policy
acceptable to the Partnership to supplement Medicare coverage while a
resident of the community. If there is a second resident in any
residential unit, the Residency Agreement also requires that such
resident must be qualified and enroll for the above Medicare benefits
if he or she has reached the age entitling him or her to such benefits.
If the required health insurance coverage is not maintained by the
resident, the Partnership may revoke the resident's right to reside at
the Community and cancel the Residency Agreement.
Entrance Payments (Return of Capital Plan only). The payments which
must be made by all Community residents as condition to their initial
admission to the Community (the "Entrance Payments") consist of the
Admission Fee (as hereinafter defined) and the Residency Loan (as
hereinafter defined).
Entrance Payments (Traditional Plan only). The payments which must be
made by all Community residents as condition to their initial admission
to the Community (the "Entrance Payments") consist of the Admission Fee
(as hereinafter defined) and the Entrance Costs (as hereinafter
defined).
Admission Fee (Return of Capital Plan and Traditional Plan). Upon
execution of a Residency Agreement, the prospective resident must pay
an admission fee based upon the unit the resident wishes to occupy
(such amount, the "Admission Fee"). The Admission Fee increases for a
second resident of the unit. The Admission Fee is deposited in an
escrow account and, subject to the resident's rights to a refund prior
to occupancy, will be released to the Partnership as soon as (i)
Project construction is complete, (ii) a final certificate of
registration has been obtained from the Maryland Office on Aging, (iii)
a certificate of occupancy has been received from the appropriate local
authorities, and (iv) the appropriate licenses or certificates have
been issued by the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene or
by the Maryland Office on Aging.
Residency Loan (Return of Capital Plan only). Upon the earlier of (i)
occupancy of his or her unit or (ii) 15 days after the date the unit is
available for occupancy, the resident must loan to the Partnership an
amount based on the type of unit being occupied (the "Residency Loan").
The Residency Loan will be evidenced by a written loan agreement, and
the repayment in full of the principal of the loan will be fully and
unconditionally guaranteed by the Real Estate Partnership. The Real
Estate Partnership's guaranty of the Residency Loans are collateralized
by a mortgage on the Community, subordinate to the lien securing the
1992 Series I and Series II Bonds.
Upon cancellation of the Residency Agreement, the resident's Residency
Loan will be repaid upon the earlier of (i) the date that a successor
resident occupies the unit or (ii) the date that is 12 months after the
resident's death or cancellation of the Residency Agreement.
Entrance Costs (Traditional Plan only). Upon the earlier of (i)
occupancy of the unit or (ii) 15 days after the date the unit is
available for occupancy, the resident must pay the balance of the
entrance fee ("Entrance Costs") to the Partnership.
Upon termination of the Residency Agreement, the resident's Entrance
Costs will be refunded less the greater of (i) the Admission Fee(s)
paid by the resident or (ii) an amount equal to two percent of the
Entrance Costs per month of occupancy by the resident to a maximum of
the Entrance Costs. The refunded portion of the Entrance Costs, if any,
will be repaid within 30 days of the date the apartment is reoccupied,
but in no event later than 12 months following the date of termination
of residency.
The following table sets forth as of December 31, 1996, information
with respect to the ranges of total Entrance Payments for the Return of
Capital Plan and Traditional Plan for the types of residential units
offered by the Community:

resident.
(2) 90% of the Entrance Payment represents the Residency Loan
(Return of Capital Plan) or Entrance Costs (Traditional Plan);
10% represents the Admission Fee.
Monthly Service Fee (Return of Capital Plan and Traditional Plan)
Each month, residents reimburse the Community for their share of the
operating cash needs of the Community.
A resident's share of the total cash needs depends, among other things,
on the type of unit, the presence of a second occupant, and the
projected occupancy rate of the Community for the following year. The
total cash needs include the operating costs, capital repair and
replacement, and debt service of the Community.
The following tables set forth as of December 31, 1996 and January 1,
1997, information with respect to the ranges of total Monthly Service
Fees for the Return of Capital Plan and Traditional Plan for the types
of units at the Community:

Capital Reserve Fee (Return of Capital Plan and Traditional Plan). In
addition to the Entrance Payments and Monthly Fees, at the time a
resident enters into the Residency Loan (Return of Capital Plan) or
pays the Entrance Costs (Traditional Plan) the resident is required to
pay a one-time capital reserve fee (the "Capital Reserve Fee") to the
Partnership in an amount equal to the then-current Monthly Service Fee.
The Capital Reserve Fee is not refundable, and the Partnership is
required to use the Capital Reserve Fee for purposes related to the
Community.
THE MARKET AREA
The Community is located in the Ruxton-Riderwood neighborhood west of
Towson, in southern Baltimore County, Maryland. Towson is located
approximately ten miles north of the center of Baltimore City, Maryland
and is largely suburban in character. The Community is located
approximately one mile south of Interstate 695 (the Baltimore Beltway)
and is in a primarily residential area, with a predominately commercial
area located approximately one mile to the east.
Under the Development Agreement, Life Care Services Corporation (LCS)
formulated and implemented an occupancy development program for the
Community. LCS is an Iowa corporation based in Des Moines, Iowa
specializing since 1961 (when it was a division of another company) in
the development of continuing care retirement communities (CCRC's). LCS
is affiliated with the Partnership through common ownership.
The primary market area for the Community is the surrounding local
area, including Towson, Ruxton, Lutherville, Timonium and northern
Baltimore City. Residents at Blakehurst have primarily come from the 16
zip code areas that are within approximately 5 to 10 miles of the
Project. Of the 189 residents that have moved into Blakehurst since the
community opened in August 1993, 147 (78%) have come from those zip
codes.
The secondary market for the Project is comprised of the rest of the
Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan area and the Washington D.C. area.
Eleven (approximately 6%) of the residents that had moved into
Blakehurst as of December 31, 1996 originated from this secondary
market.
Consistent with December 1995, at December 1996 approximately 16%, (up
from 13% at December 31, 1994 and 8% at December 31, 1993) of the
residents originated in markets beyond the primary and secondary
markets.
Residents typically sell their homes prior to moving into a retirement
community, and may use all or part of the proceeds to pay the entrance
fee. Of the 16 zip codes that make up the Project's primary market, 10
had median home values of $150,000 and above in 1996.
In order to qualify for residence at the Residential Center,
prospective residents generally must be at least 62 years of age, be
able to care for themselves at the time of occupancy and demonstrate
sufficient financial resources to pay the initial entrance payments as
well as the required fees, particularly the Monthly Service Fee.
The monthly service fees established for prospective single residents
during 1996 ranged from $21,768 to $33,588 per residential unit on an
annualized basis. The approximate weighted average first-person Monthly
Service Fee was $26,753 on an annualized basis. To provide for payment
of Monthly Service Fees and other expenses associated with independent
living, the Partnership would generally require prospective residents
to have incomes of two times the annualized Monthly Service Fee. Annual
income is defined by Management as total income received in a calendar
year by all household members. Therefore, in 1996 Management would
generally require residents to demonstrate annual incomes from
approximately $43,536 to $67,176 (approximately $53,506 weighted
average). Management therefore believes the target age- and
income-eligible market consists of those primary market area households
over 65 years old with annual incomes of $35,000 and above.
The income- and age-qualified market for the primary market area is
projected by an independent market research firm to increase
approximately 10.6% over the next 5-year period.
Utilizing the above defined potential market available for the
Residential Center, both on the basis of 65 years of age and older and
75 years of age and older, the required market penetration rate for the
Residential Center to achieve full occupancy is estimated as follows:
<TABLE>

</TABLE>
(a) Facilities include Blakehurst, Broadmead, Edenwald, Glen
Meadows , North Oaks, and Oak Crest. Based on buyer origins to
date, it is expected that about 80% of the Blakehurst units
will be filled by households from the primary market area. For
this calculation, it is assumed that 70% of the competitor's
units will be filled from households from the same primary
market area. As discussed in the section "Competition," Oak
Crest Village added 789 units in 1996. Also, Blakehurst
commenced sales of 35 Phase II apartments in 1996. The Oak
Crest Village and Blakehurst units represent the major change
in 1996 from 1995 experience, and is why the required market
saturation increased significantly.
(b) Income qualified households for Blakehurst residency are those
with annual incomes of $35,000 and over. Competitors
(especially Glen Meadows) have lower fees and presumably also
draw from households earning less than $35,000; therefore,
this estimate of the qualified households is considered to be
lower than the number actually eligible for the units
available.
(c) Required Market Saturation measures the percentage of the age
and income qualified households that will be living in the
Project or a competitive facility when all have been fully
occupied. Although the market saturation rate for the age 75
and older group indicates that marketing opportunities require
moderate success rates, management believes that, based on the
estimates of required Project penetration of 1.2% to 3.9% and
on the re-marketing experience at similar facilities with
which LCS has been involved, the Project will be able to
market its remaining unoccupied units.
COMPETITION
Competitive Facilities. Management believes that certain other
facilities currently operating or marketing residential units represent
competition for the Project. In general, facilities considered to be
competitors:
1) offer independent retirement living with services
including dining, flat laundry, housekeeping,
utilities, activities, and other services.
2) offer nursing care in an on-site nursing center, and
3) are located within the Project's primary market area.
Those competitive facilities identified are:
* Broadmead
* Edenwald
* Glen Meadows (f/k/a Notchcliff)
* North Oaks
* Oak Crest
Broadmead. Broadmead opened in 1979, was developed and is owned and
managed by the Friends Lifetime Care Center of Baltimore. The project
consists of 269 units comprised of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom
living units, predominantly single-level/garden apartments, as well as
a 95-bed health care center, situated on approximately 80 acres.
Residential units were 97% occupied and health care center beds 90%
occupied as of December 31, 1996. Broadmead is located in Cockeysville,
seven miles north of the Project.
Entrance fees range from $64,500 to $165,500, with a $20,000
second-person fee, and are refundable on a decreasing scale during the
first four years of occupancy. Monthly service fees range from $1,604
to $2,566, with a $962 second-person fee. Residents are entitled to
receive up to three meals per day, weekly linen and housekeeping
services, utilities, and scheduled transportation. Residents may also
receive unlimited nursing care in the on-site health care center should
the need arise. Management believes its superior location and service
package and the associated higher entrance fees differentiate the
Project from Broadmead in the marketplace.
Edenwald. Edenwald is located in Towson approximately 1.5 miles
northeast of Blakehurst. Edenwald is an 18-story high-rise community
situated on a 4.5-acre site, and includes 241 independent living units
which were approximately 95% occupied as of December 1996. The 115-bed
health care center was 98% occupied as of December 1996. The community
opened in 1985, and was developed and is owned and managed by the
General German Aged People's Home of Baltimore.
Residents of Edenwald pay both an entrance fee and a monthly fee.
Entrance fees currently range from $59,000 to $192,000, with a $15,000
second-person fee, and the refund of those fees declines over time.
Monthly service fees range from $1,287 to $2,402, with a $687
second-person fee. Residents receive such services as one meal per day,
bi-weekly housekeeping, flat laundry, scheduled transportation, and
utilities, as well as unlimited nursing care in the on-site
comprehensive care unit nursing center. In-house facilities include a
bank, a store, and a beauty/barber shop. Management believes its
superior location and service package and the associated higher
entrance fees differentiate the Project from Edenwald in the
marketplace.
Glen Meadows (f/k/a Notchcliff). Glen Meadows is located in a rural
setting on a 483-acre site in Glen Arm, approximately 10 miles
northeast of the Project. The prior project owner, facing financial
difficulties resulting from unsuccessful marketing, filed for
reorganization under Chapter 11 in 1988. In 1990 Presbyterian Senior
Services, Inc. purchased Glen Meadows and appointed EMA Management,
Inc. to manage the operations. The 214 independent living units were
95% occupied, and the 31-bed health center was 99% occupied as of
December 1996.
Entrance fees at December 31, 1996 range from $44,100 to $171,300 and
are structured with a 100% refund upon resale of the unit. Monthly
service fees ranged from $960 to $1,395, with a $400 second-person fee.
Included are three meals per day, weekly housekeeping and flat laundry
service, utilities, scheduled transportation, and on-site nursing care.
Management does not believe the current marketing efforts of Glen
Meadows have significantly affected the marketing efforts of the
Project because of difficulties Glen Meadows has had marketing units
while experiencing financial instability and reorganization. Management
also believes its superior location and service package and the
associated higher entrance fees differentiate the Project from Glen
Meadows in the marketplace.
North Oaks. North Oaks is a life-care retirement community located on a
10-acre site in Owings Mills, approximately seven miles southwest of
the Project. North Oaks, which was completed in May 1991, consists of
183 one- and two- bedroom independent living units and a 46-bed health
care center. Occupancy, which began December 26, 1990, was 95% in the
independent living units and 92% in the health care center as of
December 1996. North Oaks is owned by affiliates of the Partnership,
with LCS providing development and management services.
Entrance payments for the independent living units under a 90%
refundable plan range from $97,000 to $245,000. In 1994, North Oaks
added a traditional declining refund entrance fee plan. Under that
plan, entrance fees range from $65,000 to $164,200. Under both plans,
there is a $5,000 second person entrance fee. Monthly service fees
range from $1,601 to $2,962 with a $734 second-person fee. Residents
receive such services as one meal per day, utilities, weekly
housekeeping and linen service, scheduled transportation, and planned
activities, as well as certain nursing care in the on-site
comprehensive and domiciliary care nursing center. In-house facilities
include a bank, a convenience store, and beauty/barber shops.
Management believes that while the service package at North Oaks is
essentially the same as at the Project, the unique location and
associated higher entrance fees differentiate the Project from North
Oaks in the marketplace.
Oak Crest Village. Oak Crest Village is a project under construction on
85 acres in Parkville, approximately 7 miles east of Blakehurst. The
project opened March 1, 1995, and as of December 31,1996, there were
1,169 independent living apartments built which were 75% occupied. At
completion, the project will include 1,525 independent living
apartments. Oak Crest has added 789 apartments since December 31, 1995,
and will add the remaining 356 apartments during 1997. Senior Campus
Living, Inc., who also developed Charlestown in Catonsville, is the
developer of Oak Crest Village.
Entrance fees at the project range from $67,000 to $295,000. Monthly
service fees range from $813 to $1,492, with a $401 second-person fee.
Oak Crest Village opened a 112 unit assisted living facility in January
of 1996. A 240 bed nursing care facility is planned for the campus with
120 beds opening around June 1997, and another 120 beds opening in
1998.
In addition to the competitive facilities discussed above, Management
has identified four other facilities which, while comparable in some
respects to the Project, are not considered primary competitors. These
comparable facilities are:
* Brightwood
* Charlestown Retirement Home
* Fairhaven
* Roland Park Place
Brightwood. Brightwood is a condominium project targeted to retirees
which opened in January 1991. It is located on a 60-acre site in
Lutherville, approximately two miles west of Blakehurst. Brightwood
consists of 80 independent living units. As of December 1996, 96% of
the units were occupied.
Maryland National Bank assumed ownership of Brightwood in November 1992
as part of a debt restructuring with developer, MacKenzie and
Associates, Inc. The developer and Cooperative Retirement Services of
America are co-managing the project.
Brightwood does not have an on-site health care center; however, it
does have an agreement with the nearby unaffiliated Meridian Nursing
Center - Brightwood to admit Brightwood residents on a priority basis.
It is because of the condominium ownership structure and the lack of
integrated health care that Brightwood is not considered to be a
competitor of Blakehurst.
Condominium prices range from $225,000 to $680,000. Monthly service
fees range from $1,775 to $1,905, with a $645 second-person fee.
Services include evening meal, weekly housekeeping and flat laundry
service and scheduled transportation.
Charlestown Retirement Home. Charlestown Retirement Home is located
approximately 12 miles southwest of Blakehurst in Catonsville. It
contains 1,614 independent living units situated on a 120-acre site,
and is owned and operated by a non-profit corporation, Charlestown
Community, Inc. The community, which opened in 1984, was developed from
a former Catholic college and seminary. The apartments were 98%
occupied as of December 1996. The on-site health care center, which
consists of 270 comprehensive care beds and a 132-unit assisted living
center, was 97% occupied as of December 1996.
Entrance fees as of December 1996 ranged from $48,000 to $248,000 and
are fully refundable. Monthly service fees range from $806 to $1,283,
with a $400 second-person fee. Residents receive one meal per day,
utilities, and scheduled transportation. Nursing care is provided on a
fee-for-service basis, with a guarantee to residents of access to the
nursing center. Charlestown Retirement Home is not located within the
Project's primary market area, and, therefore, is not considered to be
a competitor of Blakehurst.
Fairhaven. Fairhaven is located in Sykesville, approximately 20 miles
west of the Project. It was developed and is owned by Episcopal
Ministries to the Aging, Inc. and is managed by a subsidiary, EMA
Management, Inc. (which also manages Glen Meadows as discussed above).
Fairhaven consists of 275 independent living units situated on 300
acres, and was 98% occupied as of December 1996. The on-site health
center includes 101 nursing care beds and a 125 beds for Alzheimer's
patients, and was 100% occupied as of December 1996.
As of December 1996, entrance fees under a 50-month declining refund
plan range from $52,000 to $189,000, with a $15,000 second-person fee.
In January 1993, Fairhaven added a 90% refundable entrance fee plan
with entrance fees of $85,800 to $311,850 and a second-person fee of
$24,750. Monthly service fees under both plans range from $1,490 to
$2,620, with a second-person fee of $1,175. Services include three
meals per day, weekly housekeeping and flat laundry, utilities, and
scheduled transportation. Unlimited nursing care is provided to
Fairhaven residents. Because Fairhaven is not located within the
Project's primary market area, it is not considered to be a competitor
of Blakehurst.
Roland Park Place. Located approximately six miles south of the Project
is Roland Park Place. This 235-unit community, situated on 9 acres, was
developed and is jointly operated by the First English Evangelical
Lutheran Church, inc., the Lutheran Home and Hospital Association and
St. Luke Lutheran Health Care, Inc. The community offers both one- and
two-bedroom apartments, and occupancy stood at approximately 87% as of
December 1996. There are 71 beds in the on-site health care center
which were 83% occupied as of December 1996.
Entrance fees range from $98,500 to $323,300, with a $15,000
second-person fee, refundable on a declining basis during the first
five years of occupancy. Monthly service fees range from $1,911 to
$3,501 with a $643 second-person fee. Services include one meal per
day, weekly flat laundry, bi-weekly apartment cleaning, utilities and
scheduled transportation, as well as unlimited access to the on-site
nursing center. Because Roland Park Place is not located within the
Project's primary market area, it is not considered to be a competitor
of Blakehurst.
REGULATORY APPROVALS
Certificate of Need and Licensure. In connection with the operation of
the comprehensive care beds in the health care center, the Partnership
has received an exemption from the certificate of need requirements
from the State of Maryland Health Resources Planning Commission
("HRPC"). HRPC has granted such exemption subject to the restrictions
that (i) the 36 comprehensive care beds will be available only for
occupancy by residents and other subscribers and (ii) the number of
comprehensive care beds may not exceed 20% of the number of residential
units in the Community.
Health Care Center Licensure. The Partnership received initial
licensure of the comprehensive and domiciliary care beds in August,
1993 and annually renews such license. Operation of comprehensive care
beds requires licensure by the state of Maryland Department of Health
and Mental Hygiene, Office of Licensing and Certification Program
("OLC") pursuant to Sections 19-318 through 19-326 of the
Health-General Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland.
Maryland Office on Aging. In 1975, the Maryland General Assembly
created the Office on Aging, by enacting the Office on Aging Statute
(currently codified in Article 70B of the Annotated Code of Maryland
1987 Cumulative Supplement). The Office on Aging was created as part of
the Executive Department and consists of a Director on Aging and the
Commission on Aging.
By the terms of the Office on Aging Statute, no provider of continuing
care, including the Partnership, is permitted to enter into or renew a
contract for continuing care in the state of Maryland without a
Certificate of Registration from the Office on Aging, which certificate
must be renewed annually within 120 days after the end of the
provider's fiscal year. The Partnership is operating under a
Certificate of Registration. The Partnership plans to renew the
Certificate of Registration prior to expiration.
To the best of the Partnership's knowledge, licenses and permits
discussed above represent all authorizations required under Maryland
law to operate the Project. Additional licensing and permit
requirements, such as annual health department inspections and other
matters, also apply to the operation of the Project. The Partnership
believes that all necessary permits, licenses, and material authority
has been obtained.
Item 2. Properties
Pursuant to the terms of the June 8, 1988 Real Property Contract, as
amended, entered into between the Partnership and The Mission Helpers
of the Sacred Heart, an order of Catholic Nuns ("Seller"), the
Partnership purchased the Property on which the community is being
constructed. The Property consists of a parcel of approximately 40.5
acres out of a total of 45 acres owned by the Seller. See "Business The
Project" for a more complete description of the Project.
The Real Estate Partnership was formed for the express purpose of
holding title to the Property. In accordance with the terms of the
Operating and Use Agreement, the Partnership purchased the Property in
the name of the Real Estate Partnership contemporaneous with the
closing on the Construction Loan and the sale of 1992 Series I Bonds,
utilizing a portion of the proceeds therefrom. See "Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions - Partnership - Real Estate
Partnership."
Item 3. Legal Proceeding
There are no legal proceedings involving the Partnership or Real Estate
Partnership.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No matter has been submitted to a vote of the Bondholders.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of The Chestnut Partnership and
the Chestnut Real Estate Partnership
Overall Financial Condition. The Community's Phase I consists of 177 residential
apartment units and a 50-bed health center. As of December 31, 1996, 171 of the
residential units (97%) had been reserved or occupied.
During 1996, emphasis was placed on move-ins and reselling and closing 6 of the
9 units in Phase I that became available due to attrition, and closing 3 units
for the first time. At December 31, 1996, there are 8 units sold pending
closing.
During 1996 the working capital funds of $1,350,000, as required by the Bond
documents, were established and the Phase II activities completed. Phase II
consisted of an auditorium addition and a renovation of a carriage house, both
of which provide more common areas. The Phase II construction cost approximately
$350,000 and was funded by the Partners through capital contributions in 1995.
Distributions to the partners were made from the proceeds of closing the
remaining previously unsold units and from net attrition income.
Because Phase I is 97% sold, the Partnership has begun the development of Phase
III - a 35 unit expansion. Regulatory approval was obtained in April 1996 and
reservations in the form of refundable deposits of Admission Fees were accepted.
As of December 31, 1996, all 35 units were reserved.
The overall impact of Phase III will be to substantially increase the net
operating revenue without substantially increasing the fixed operating costs.
Results of Operations. Occupancy began in late August, 1993. Occupancy increased
from 133 units (75%) at December 31, 1994, to 154 units (87%) at December 31,
1995, to 163 units (92%) at December 31, 1996.
In 1996 total revenue decreased marginally (-1.4%), even though apartment
service fees revenue increased almost 19%. The apartment service fee revenue
increased because of a fee increase of 5% effective January 1, 1996, and because
the average number of units occupied increased approximately 11%. Health Center
revenues increased in 1996 by 10% over 1995 Health Center revenues because of an
increase in average occupancy of approximately 5% and a rate increase of
approximately 6% effective July 1, 1996. The amortization of non-refundable
admission fees declined by enough to offset all of these increases. The
amortization declined due to fewer move-ins in 1996 when total occupancy
increased 5% compared to a total increase of 12% in 1995.
Total operating expense declined 4% in 1996 compared to 1995 because of a
decrease in development fee amortization as fewer move-ins occurred (it is
amortized pro rata with the amortization of non refundable admission fees).
There was a decrease in general and administrative expenses due to expense
control activities. Operating expenses for resident care, dietary, plant and
housekeeping increased as occupancy increased.
Interest expense declined in 1996 because all Advances Payable to Partners
received prior to December 31, 1994, had been repaid by December 31, 1995. New
advances of $1,600,000 were reserved as described below, in conjunction with
Phase III construction.
As in 1994, meaningful comparisons of 1995 to 1994 operating revenues and
expenses relating to resident activities cannot be made. In 1994, operating
revenues and expenses relating to resident activities were capitalized for 7.5
months. Consequently, comparing a 12 month period (1995) to a 4.5 month period
(1994) cannot be meaningful.
However, certain comparisons may be made as between 1995 and 1994:
* In 1995, Admission Fees revenue was slightly lower than in 1994 as
the community moved from 75% occupancy to 88% occupancy at the end
of 1995 -- a 13% increase -- compared to a 15% increase in
occupancy in 1994.
* Increased occupancy and a 5% monthly service fee increase in
January 1995 also increased the Apartment revenues.
* Health Center revenues increased in 1995 due to increased
reimbursement from third party payers.
* Revenue from Capital Reserve Fees also declined as fewer
residents moved in during 1995, compared to 1994.
* Increases in expenses, when compared to increased occupancy
explains the increases in Operating expenses, except for General
and Administrative expenses and Plant expenses. Plant expenses
increased as the community assumed full responsibility for the
grounds and structures, in the absence of usual one year warranties
provided by the contractors. General and Administrative expenses
increased as more marketing and sales expenditures were made to
complete the initial sales of all units within a reasonably short
period of time.
* Because the Development Fee expense is amortized pro rata with the
amortization of the non-refundable Admission Fees, the decrease in
Development Fee expense declined as the Admission Fee revenue
declined
Liquidity and Capital Resources. As of May 28, 1992, significant financing
activities were concluded. Construction financing and long-term financing both
were achieved on that date. Construction financing in the amount of $20,000,000
from a group of lenders was achieved and the Partnership raised $14,000,000
(before deduction of costs of underwriting) through long-term financing.
The Partnership in May 1992 issued two types of taxable bonds. One type was
issued in an underwritten public offering of $8,000,000 principal amount of
Blakehurst 10 Year Put Option Mortgage Bonds 1992, Series I. Also in May 1992,
the Partnership issued in a private transaction to affiliates of the
Partnership, a total of $6,000,000 principal amount of Blakehurst Retirement
Community Put Option Bonds, Private Placement Series on terms substantially
identical to the public offering except that the Private Placement Bonds
provided for redemption of such bonds from the proceeds of the sale of 1992
Series II Bonds. The affiliates of the Partnership re-sold the 1992 Series II
Bonds in the amount of $6,000,000 in August 1992.
During 1993, the construction loan was borrowed and repaid.
Scheduled repayment of Series I and II Bonds began in 1995, during which $65,000
of principal was paid to the bondholders; in 1996, $130,000 of principal was
paid.
Also during 1995, Advances Payable to Partners in the amount of $6,872,377 were
paid. These advances had been made in conjunction with the original financing in
1992. During 1994, $5,918,840 of Advances Payable to Partners had been repaid.
As of December 31, 1995, there were no Advances Payable to Partners.
All of the repayment of the construction loan and Advances Payable to Partners
was ultimately funded by Residency Loans. The majority of the capital
expenditures are therefore made from Residency Loans.
During 1995, the Partners made capital contributions of $349,978 towards the
construction of the auditorium and renovation of a carriage house (Phase II),
which is complete.
Phase III expansion, described under Item 1, is estimated to cost approximately
$10,600,000, which includes the construction management fee to Mullan and
development fee to LCSD. To fund the expansion, the Partners expect to obtain
permanent parity debt financing of $1,900,000 and resident loans and fees of
$8,700,000. Construction period financing will be provided by the Partners.
During 1996 the Partnership distributed $1,600,000 to the Partners after working
capital reserve requirements of $1,350,000 as defined in the bond documents were
established. The Partners advanced $1,600,000 to the Partnerships in 1996 in
connection with Phase III.
As of December 31, 1996, all 35 units in the Phase III expansion had been
reserved by receipt of a deposit. Occupancy is expected to begin in late summer
1997.
During late 1994, a new residency agreement was introduced, as described above
Traditional Plan. The economic impact is to reduce the total initial loans from
residents. The Partners believe, however, the receipt of monthly service fees
due to more rapid increase in occupancy, is better for the community as a whole.
The Partners are therefore deferring receipt of the optimum proceeds until the
units are resold under a Return of Capital Residency agreement.
Net cash provided by operating activities in 1996 improved approximately
$775,000. Major contributing factors to this were:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
<S> <C>
* Better operating results due to increased occupancy and control of expenses $545,000
* Decreased amortization of non refundable fees and development fees 509,000
* Increased operating assets and liabilities 349,000
* Decrease in Admission fees due to fewer move-ins (638,000)
</TABLE>
Net cash provided by operating activities in 1995 was essentially the same as in
1994. Admission Fees received increased substantially due to move ins to larger
apartments. This increase was offset by the increased interest cost because
interest cost was capitalized during the initial 7.5 months of 1994, and
expensed for all of 1995.
Net cash used in investing activities in 1996 increased significantly because of
these major contributing factors:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
<S> <C>
* Receipt of Admission Fees from perspective Phase III residents, placed in escrow $893,000
* Net cash balance increase from Partners of Phase III construction funds 556,000
* Additions to operating property greater than in 1995, essentially because of (2,069,000)
Phase III construction
* Increase in health center reserves due to increased permanent assignments 682,000
* Increase in construction costs payable 1,650,000
</TABLE>
In 1995, the substantial decrease in net cash used in investing activities
relates primarily to much lower capital expenditures in 1995 compared to 1994.
In 1995, the auditorium addition was the major capital expenditure, and was
funded by the Partners.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased approximately $3,000,000 in
1996 compared to 1995 because of the repayment of all Partner Advances in 1995
($6,872,000) and the decline in net new resident loans of $3,300,000.
Because occupancy of Phase I units continues to now exceed 90%, the introduction
of new residency agreement types in 1994, the complete pre-sale of Phase III,
the resident financing, and the long-term financing described above, the
Partnership believes adequate capital resources are available.
The long-term success of the project is, however, ultimately dependent upon
marketing of substantially all available units and health center beds,
maintaining adequate levels of occupancy, and operating the Project efficiently.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
Partnership - Real Estate Partnership. The Partnership was originally organized
June 3, 1988 and had two general partners, Chestnut Village and West Joppa, each
holding a 50% interest. The Real Estate Partnership was organized April 25, 1990
and had two general partners, Chestnut Village and West Joppa, each holding a
50% interest. On April 25, 1990, each of Chestnut Village and West Joppa
transferred and assigned 98% of their respective partnership to the Real Estate
Partnership. The transfer resulted in the Partnership being comprised of three
general partners: the Real Estate Partnership with a 98% interest, and Chestnut
Village and West Joppa, each with a 1% interest. On December 16, 1991, Chestnut
Village transferred its interests in the Partnership and the Real Estate
Partnership to BJV.
The Partnership and the Real Estate Partnership entered into an operating and
use agreement (the "Operating and Use Agreement"), which obligates the
Partnership to purchase the Property in the name of the Real Estate Partnership
and to develop, operate and manage the Project at the Partnership's expense.
Under the Operating and Use Agreement, the Partnership pays to the Real Estate
Partnership an annual use fee equal to the Real Estate Partnership's projected
taxable loss for federal income tax purposes for each year, to the extent
required for federal income tax purposes. As of this date, the Partnership
anticipates that no annual use fee will be required to be paid. During the term
of the Operating and Use Agreement, the Partnership has the right to receive and
retain all revenues from the Project. The Operating and Use Agreement will
terminate upon the dissolution, liquidation, or other termination of the
Partnership or upon acceleration by the Trustee of the principal of and accrued
interest on the 1992 Series I Bonds following an Event of Default under the
Indenture.
Under the Operating and Use Agreement, the Real Estate Partnership has
guaranteed the performance by the Partnership of its obligations under the
Residency Agreements. The covenants, agreements and, undertakings contained in
the Operating and Use Agreement are for the express benefit of, and are
expressly enforceable by, residents of the Community.
Construction Manager. The Weitz Company, Inc. ("Weitz Construction"), until
March 1, 1995 a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Weitz Corporation, was the
construction manager for the Project. Weitz Construction was affiliated until
March 1, 1995 with Continuing Care Communities of America, Inc. (now renamed
Home Health Care Services Corporation), also a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Weitz Corporation (now renamed LCS Holdings, Inc.), which in turn owns 100% of
Chestnut Village, Inc., one of the general partners of BJV, which is a general
partner of both the Partnership and the Real Estate Partnership. The
construction of Phase I was completed in early 1994. There are no contractual
matters yet to be resolved relating to this construction management agreement.
Mullan Contracting Company, an affiliate of Rosedale Care, Inc., is the
construction manager for Phase II, now completed, and Phase III, now underway.
Mullan Contracting is to receive a fixed fee of $371,571 of which $94,794 was
earned in 1996, and $25,001 in 1995, plus reimbursement of certain costs. The
contract contains a guaranteed maximum cost and general conditions guarantee,
together with a provision for sharing any savings.
Developer. The Partnership has retained LCS to assist it in developing the
Project. Under the terms of the Development Agreement, the Partnership agreed to
pay LCS a Phase I development fee (the "Development Fee") consisting of 4.75% of
the total Project costs, excluding certain costs, as budgeted prior to
construction and approved by LCS and the Partnership. Additionally, the
Partnership has agreed to reimburse LCS for certain out-of-pocket costs incurred
by LCS in the performance of the Development Agreement. Such Development
Agreement was completely paid in 1993.
In December, 1994, the Development Agreement was amended (Amendment #1) to
include terms relative to Phase II. The Amendment #1 provided that Rosedale
Care, Inc. and Continental Care, Inc., partners of West Joppa, would jointly and
severally, with LCS, be responsible for providing marketing, interior
decoration, and be primarily responsible for community relations. Further, Phase
II development fees were to be paid one-half to LCS and one quarter each to
Rosedale Care, Inc. and Continental Care, Inc.
In October 1996 the Development Agreement was further amended (Amendment #2)
with regard to Phase III. The Amendment #2 provides that Life Care Services
Development Corporation, a subsidiary of LCS, shall provide development services
for Phase III, receiving a total fee of $585,000, none of which was paid in
1996. The Amendment #2 also eliminated any development fee being paid to
Rosedale Care, Inc., or Continental Care, Inc.
BJV - West Joppa. The Partners had advanced to the Partnership a total of
$6,872,377 as of December 31, 1994, which funds were used to defray certain
development, marketing and other costs of the Project. All such advances were
repaid in 1995.
Trustee's Counsel. Davis, Brown, Koehn, Shors & Roberts, P.C., Des Moines, Iowa
("Davis, Brown"), has acted as Trustee's counsel in connection with the issuance
of the 1992 Series I Bonds. A. Arthur Davis, a partner at Davis, Brown, was a
director of The Weitz Corporation through February, 1995. David S. Strutt, an
employee of Weitz Construction, served as General Counsel and Secretary through
February, 1995 of Chestnut Village, LCS, The Weitz Corporation, and Weitz
Construction and was formerly a partner at Davis, Brown.
During 1996, Donald J. Brown, a partner at Davis, Brown, has been outside
general counsel to LCS and Holdings.

Report of Independent Accountants
To the Partners
The Chestnut Real Estate Partnership
and The Chestnut Partnership:
We have audited the accompanying separate and combined balance sheets of The
Chestnut Real Estate Partnership (a general partnership) and The Chestnut
Partnership (a general partnership) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the
related separate and combined statements of operations, statements of partners'
equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnerships'
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these separate and
combined financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the separate and combined financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Chestnut
Real Estate Partnership and The Chestnut Partnership as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, the results of their operations and cash flows for the years ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

NOTES TO SEPARATE AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED MATTERS:
ORGANIZATION: The separate and combined financial statements include The
Chestnut Real Estate Partnership (the "Real Estate Partnership") and its
98% owned subsidiary The Chestnut Partnership (the "Partnership"). Both
the Real Estate Partnership and the Partnership are general partnerships.
The Real Estate Partnership is owned 50% by Blakehurst Joint Venture (the
"Venture") and 50% by West Joppa Road Limited Partnership ("West Joppa").
The Venture is owned by Chestnut Village, Inc., ("Chestnut Village") and
Prime Holdings, Inc. The Venture and West Joppa own the remaining 2% of
the Partnership.
The Real Estate Partnership was formed to hold title to property which is
being developed for use as a life care facility under the terms of an
operating and use agreement with the Partnership.
The Real Estate Partnership and the Partnership are hereinafter referred
to as the "Partnerships". The Partnerships were formed to develop, own
and operate a life care community to be called Blakehurst Retirement
Community (the "Community") in the Towson area of Baltimore County,
Maryland. The Community contains a total of 177 residential apartment
units, 14 domiciliary care units, and 36 comprehensive care beds. Because
the Partnerships have common ownership and do not have independent
operating activities the, accompanying financial statements present the
separate and combined statements of the Partnerships.
For purposes of preparing the combined financial statements, all material
transactions between the Partnerships have been eliminated but not
displayed, including the elimination of the Real Estate Partnership's
obligation to the Partnership.
OPERATING PROPERTY: Costs incurred relating to the acquisition of land
and the design, development, construction, marketing and interest (net of
interest income) of the Community have been capitalized. Upon completion
of Phase I in August, 1994, these costs were classified as land,
buildings, equipment, and other asset classifications, as appropriate,
and are being depreciated or amortized over the life of the respective
assets or the period of anticipated benefits.
These assets are classified as operating property and recorded at cost.
Depreciation is being computed by the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives ranging from seven to fifty years.
In 1995-96, an auditorium was added, and a carriage house was renovated,
providing more common areas for the residents. In 1996, construction
began on a 35-apartment unit wing expansion.
CAPITALIZATION OF OPERATING EXPENSES AND CERTAIN REVENUES: The Community
began operations in August, 1993 when the initial occupancy of the
Community occurred. The Partnership's policy is to capitalize operating
costs, net of revenues (except for admission fees and capital reserve
fees) prior to reaching substantial occupancy of the Community or a
period not to exceed one year. Capitalization of net operating costs
continued through August, 1994, at which time recognition of revenues and
expenses commenced.
Prior to that date, $816,404 in accumulated start-up losses were
capitalized to project under development, all of which had been incurred
prior to the completion of construction of the Community.
DEFERRED BOND FINANCING COSTS: Expenses directly related to the issuance
of bonds are deferred and amortized over the life of the related debt
using the interest method.
COSTS OF ACQUIRING INITIAL CONTRACTS: Costs incurred to originate a
resident contract that result from and are essential to acquire initial
contracts through August, 1994, were capitalized. These costs are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over the average expected remaining
lives of the residents under contract commencing in August, 1994.
REVENUES AND EXPENSES: Admission fees are recorded as deferred revenue
when the right to access a housing unit is established through the
closing of the transaction. These fees are subsequently amortized into
income over a 24 month period. Upon occupancy, an owner's supervision fee
for each resident is billed monthly and recognized as revenue. These fees
are not refundable and are unrestricted as to use.
At the time of initial occupancy, the resident pays a capital reserve fee
equal to the then current monthly service fee (described below). This
one-time nonrefundable charge is recognized as income when the right to
access a housing unit is established. Its use is restricted for purposes
specified in the residency agreement.
Residents pay a monthly service fee, determined annually. The residency
agreement provides that residents pay the funds required to operate the
Community, which includes all operating expenses, debt service for
nonresident debt, repairs and replacements, capital improvements, and
working capital. The monthly service fee may only be used for purposes
specified in the residency agreement.
Development fees incurred in connection with the development of the
Community are amortized pro rata as admission fee revenue is recognized.
INCOME TAXES: The Partnerships are not subject to federal income taxes.
Each partner will be taxed on their share of the Partnerships' taxable
income, whether or not distributed, and will be entitled to deduct on
their own tax return, their share of any net loss of the Partnership and
any separate tax items, to the extent allowed under the Internal Revenue
Code.
FUTURE SERVICE OBLIGATION: The Partnerships annually calculate the
present value of the net cost of future services and uses of facilities
to be provided to current residents, and compare this amount to the
revenue anticipated from these residents. The present value of the net
cost of future services and uses of facilities does not exceed the
revenue anticipated, and therefore, no future service obligation is
recorded.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The Partnerships consider investments with
maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements: The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
The Partnerships have agreements with Life Care Services Development
Corp. ("LCSD") and Life Care Services Corporation ("LCS"), affiliates
through common ownership of Chestnut Village, for development and for
management of the Community, respectively. LCSD administers planning,
development, financing and marketing functions for the Partnerships. LCS
also has been retained to supervise the day-to-day operations of the
Community.
The Partnerships entered into a construction management agreement with
Mullan Contracting Company ("Mullan"), an affiliate through common
ownership of one partner of West Joppa, for Phases II and III.
There were no fees incurred under the development agreements in 1996 and
1995. Management fees of $333,194 and $293,882 were paid to LCS during
1996 and 1995, respectively. Additionally, LCS has funded Community costs
incurred and is subsequently reimbursed by the Partnership.
At December 31, 1995, advances payable to LCS were $190,153. Mullan
earned a construction management fee of $94,794 and $25,001 in 1996 and
1995, respectively.
At December 31, 1996, a total of $1,600,000 had been advanced to the
Partnership by Blakehurst Joint Venture and West Joppa in connection with
Phase III and will be repaid at the time residents move into Phase III.
The Partnership and the Real Estate Partnership entered into a long-term
operating and use agreement in 1992. This grants the Partnership use of
the property until dissolution, liquidation, or other termination by
mutual agreement. The agreement requires the Partnership to pay all costs
associated with the construction, equipping, and furnishing of the
Community. The agreement also provides for an annual fee to be paid by
the Partnership to the Real Estate Partnership if necessary for federal
income tax purposes.
3. RESIDENCY AGREEMENTS:
The Partnership has entered into residency agreements with occupants and
prospective occupants of the Community. Until 1994, only a Return of
Capital Plan residency agreement was offered. In 1994, a second type of
residency agreement, the Traditional Plan Agreement, was also offered.
The plans provide for the lifetime use of an apartment with payment by
the resident of an admission fee and monthly charges sufficient to cover
the operating cash needs and long-term debt service and a loan to the
Partnership under the Return of Capital Plan or an entrance fee under the
Traditional Plan.
The admission fees are deposited in an escrow account and will be
released to the Partnership after various contractual and regulatory
requirements have been met. The liability for refundable deposits of
$743,167 and $744,151 at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively,
includes the admission fees plus interest due to residents and
prospective residents.
Coincident with the marketing of Phase III which began in 1996, admission
fees have been received and deposited in an escrow account, to be
released when the newly constructed units are occupied. At December 31,
1996, the liability for Phase III refundable deposits was $892,550.
The funds held in escrow under residency agreements at December 31, 1996
and 1995 which are the result of admission fees received plus interest
are invested primarily in money market funds.
The Return of Capital Plan residency agreement also provides that the
resident will, upon occupancy, make a loan to the Partnership. These
loans are collateralized by a deed of trust on the real estate subject to
certain permitted encumbrances, including the revenue bonds referred to
in Note 7. The loans will be repaid upon the earlier of reoccupancy of
the unit or 12 months after termination of the residency agreement, 30
years from the date of the loan agreement, or such other date as the
resident and the Partnership may agree. The loans are subject to
interest; however, the Partnership will receive revenue in the form of an
annual fee from the residents in the same amount. These interest payments
have no effect on the financial statements, and are offset in the
accompanying financial statements. The outstanding loans totaled
$38,004,000 and $36,756,428 at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The Traditional Plan residency agreement requires the payment of an
entrance fee (admission fee plus entrance cost) prior to the occupancy
of a unit. Upon termination of the Traditional Plan residency agreement,
a calculated portion of the entrance costs may be repaid. At December 31,
1996 and 1995, such refundable entrance costs equaled $1,055,790 and
$816,322, respectively and are included in loans from residents.
Other funds held in escrow are being released to the Partnership for
general use upon the occurrence of certain events relating to the
completion of the Community. These amounts are valued at cost which
approximates market.
The State of Maryland requires that an operating reserve be established
in the amount of 15% of operating expenses excluding depreciation and
amortization. The required $868,000 is included in cash and cash
equivalents as of December 31, 1996.
4. OPERATING PROPERTY:
Upon Community completion in August, 1994, costs previously recorded as
project under development were classified as operating property. A
summary of these costs as of December 1996 and 1995, follows:

5. ASSETS WHOSE USE IS LIMITED UNDER BOND INDENTURE AGREEMENTS:
Assets whose use is limited that are required for obligations classified
as current liabilities are reported in current assets. Funds held by bond
trustees represent those assets (cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government
securities and interest receivable) which are encumbered by covenants in
revenue bond indentures. These assets are classified as held to maturity
and are carried at cost which approximates market. The only investment
not a cash equivalent is a one-year Treasury Bill maturing in May, 1997
and which is being held to maturity. Amortized cost of $1,533,654
approximates market. The use of these funds is restricted to the payments
of obligations arising from bond issues. The specific accounts provided
for in the indentures and held by the bond trustees are as follows:

The 1992 Series I and II Mortgage Bonds are subject to redemption without
premium or penalty by the Partnership prior to their stated maturity at a
redemption price equal to principal plus accrued interest to the date of
redemption.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
The realization of the costs of the Community is ultimately dependent
upon the sale of the remaining units, and occupancy of the Community.
Maintenance and efficient operation of the Community are also critical to
the long-term success of the Community.
During 1996, the Partnerships commenced Phase III of the Community which
includes the addition of 35 residential apartment units, a core tower,
additional parking facilities and other amenities. Total Phase III
development costs are estimated to be approximately $10,600,000 which
include construction management fees to Mullan and development fees to
LCSD (Note 2).
The sources of funds for Phase III are ultimately expected to be
permanent parity debt financing ($1,900,000) and resident loans and fees
($8,700,000). Construction period financing will be provided by the
partners.
9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
value of each class of financial instruments.
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value
because of the short maturity of those instruments. The investment in a
U.S. government security is valued based on quoted market prices (see
Note 5). Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the
Partnership's debt with similar terms and average maturities, the fair
value of the bonds is $15,100,000. The redemption price to the
Partnership as of December 31, 1996 is 100% or $13,805,000.

4. MONTHLY CHARGES.
4.1 OWNER'S SUPERVISION FEE. You will pay an Owner's Supervision Fee of
$___________________ a month per Resident for occupying your Apartment
or the Community Health Center. There shall be no increase in your
Owner's Supervision Fee during the term of this Agreement. The Owner's
Supervision Fee may be used by us for any purpose.
4.2 SERVICE FEE. You will pay the following Service Fee for the
services and features provided under Section 7:
4.2.1 INITIAL SERVICE FEE. If the Community were in operation
during the fiscal year ended December 31, 19__, this Service Fee would
be $_____________ a month for one person and an additional $___________
a month if there are two of you. For sub sequent fiscal years and until
the Fair Share Allocation has been implemented, the Service Fee will be
adjusted on the basis of the best information available at the time and
the prior year's inflation rate. The Fair Share Allocation will be
implemented when, in our sole discretion, the Community has had a
sufficient operating history to support its use and determination.
4.2.2 FAIR SHARE ALLOCATION. Upon implementation of the Fair
Share Allocation, the Service Fee will thereafter be your fair share of
the cash requirement of the Community (as described in Section 4.4).
The Fair Share Allocation has been developed to apportion the cash
requirement of the Community among its residents, based on such factors
as living unit size and type, number of second persons, and other
relevant factors as determined by us from time to time. A sample of the
current form of Fair Share Allocation formula is included in our most
current Information Booklet.
4.3 TOTAL MONTHLY CHARGES FOR APARTMENT. If the Community were in
operation during the fiscal year ending December 31, 19__, you would
pay total Monthly Charges (including second person charges if there are
two of you) of $______________ for the Owner's Super vision Fee and
Service Fee.
4.4 CASH REQUIREMENT. The cash requirement of the Community is that
projected amount necessary to provide services and facilities to the
residents. The cash requirement is charged to all residents through the
Service Fee and application of the Fair Share Allocation. Generally, we
will determine the cash requirement based upon (i) the costs incurred
in connection with the operation of the Community for the prior fiscal
year, (ii) with adjustments made for inflation or deflation, occupancy
rates, changes to reserves, and nonrecurring expenses, and (iii)
reduced by certain projected Community income for the next fiscal year.
Once determined, the cash requirement is allocated among the residents
pursuant to the Fair Share Allocation. The determination of the cash
requirement is further explained below:
4.4.1 COSTS. Based upon the costs incurred in connection with
the operation of the Community for the prior fiscal year, we will
determine all anticipated expenses, costs, and other charges to the
Community for the next fiscal year, including but not limited to
salaries, wages, and fringe benefits of the Community employees and
other persons at the Community (including administrators); payroll
taxes; telephone; utilities; license fees, occupational taxes, property
taxes, sales taxes, permits, and other taxes (excluding only our income
taxes); legal and accounting fees and costs; bad debts and other
losses; insurance premiums, commissions, deductibles, and claims;
consulting fees; directors' expenses; food; supplies; interior,
exterior, and grounds replacement, repair, and maintenance, includ ing
living unit refurbishment costs; capital improvements to the extent
funds are not available for such use from the Community's Capital
Replacement Reserve Fund (as described in Section 4.10); an amount
equal to three percent (3%) of the prior year's total cash requirement
to fund the Capital Replacement Reserve; management fees paid to
others; management fees paid to Life Care Services Corporation or to an
affiliate of Life Care Services Corporation of five percent (5%) of the
total of revenues (including first and second person Service Fees),
plus reimbursable costs incurred in performing management services as
described in the management agreement; debt service, including
principal and interest (excluding only principal payments on loans from
residents); initial start-up losses, if any, incurred after the earlier
of ninety percent (90%) occupancy or nine (9) months following initial
occupancy; lease payments; occupancy development costs; and other
similar expenses, costs, and charges to the Community.
4.4.2 ADJUSTMENTS. The foregoing projected expenses, costs,
and charges are then further adjusted by us to take into account
anticipated changes in reserves, working capital needs, services,
Community Health Center utilization, living unit occu pancy, inflation
or deflation, nonrecurring expenses, and other relevant factors.
4.4.3 COMMUNITY INCOME. The foregoing adjusted expenses,
costs, and charges are then reduced for certain projected income of the
Community for the next fiscal year, consisting of fees for additional
services, the Community Health Center services, and investment income
from the Health Center Resident Loans Escrow, to result in the cash
requirement of the Community for the next fiscal year.
4.5 SERVICE FEE CHANGES.
4.5.1 EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 4.5.2 BELOW, WE WILL
NOTIFY YOU AT LEAST THIRTY (30) DAYS PRIOR TO THE END OF EACH FISCAL
YEAR OF THE NEW SERVICE FEE THAT WILL GO INTO EFFECT AT THE START OF
THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR. WE WILL NOT ADJUST YOUR SERVICE FEE MORE THAN
ONCE EACH YEAR, EXCEPT FOR THE YEAR DURING WHICH THE FAIR SHARE
ALLOCATION IS IMPLEMENTED.
4.5.2 IF YOU OCCUPY A DOMICILIARY CARE BED IN THE COMMUNITY
HEALTH CENTER, WE WILL NOTIFY YOU AT LEAST FORTY-FIVE (45) DAYS BEFORE
ANY CHANGE IN THE SERVICE FEE IS EFFECTIVE.
4.6 USE OF SERVICE FEE. The Service Fee will be used by us only for
purposes related to the Community. As part of the annual audit of the
Community, we will obtain an opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent auditors which confirms that the Service Fee has been used
by us only for purposes related to the Community. A copy of the annual
audit of the Community is available for your review upon your request.
4.7 CREDIT AGAINST INITIAL MONTHLY CHARGES. You will receive a credit
towards the payment of your Monthly Charges until the credit is fully
used. The credit is not available for any other purpose. The credit
will be in an amount equal to simple interest of five and one-half
percent (5.5%) per annum on your Admission Fee computed from the date
of its payment until the commencement of your Service Fee. The credit
may result in tax consequences to you as described in Section 14.9.
4.8 PAYMENT. You will pay a pro rata portion of the Owner's Supervision
Fee and Service Fee commencing on the earlier of (i) fifteen (15) days
after your Apartment is ready for occupancy (provided we give you at
least thirty (30) days' advance notice of the date on which your
Apartment will be ready for occupancy) or (ii) the date you move into
the Community. Thereafter, such Monthly Charges will be payable on the
first day of each month in advance. Any additional charges for optional
services requested by you will be paid on the first day of each month
for the optional services obtained during the preceding month.
4.9 CANCELLATION OF MONTHLY CHARGES FOR APARTMENT. The Monthly Charges
for your Apartment will continue until the earlier of (i) your death
(if there are two of you, the death of the survivor) or (ii) the
release of your Apartment pursuant to the provisions regarding the
Community Health Center usage or (iii) the cancellation of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 10 or Section 11 of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Monthly Charges for your Apartment
will continue at least until your furniture and other property are

or (ii) the release of your Apartment pursuant to the provisions
regarding the Community Health Center usage or (iii) the cancellation
of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10 or Section 11 of this
Agreement, then we may remove and store such furniture and other
property at the expense and risk of you and your estate. In the event
there are two of you who occupy the Apartment and one of you dies, the
second person fees will cease and the remaining person will continue to
pay the first person Service Fee and Owner's Super vision Fee.
4.10 CAPITAL REPLACEMENT RESERVE FUND. We will establish a Community
Capital Replacement Reserve Fund to be used only for improving or
replacing capital items of the Community which cost over $50,000. Such
reserve will be funded from monthly Service Fees as set forth in
Section 4.4.1. A copy of the Capital Replacement Reserve Escrow

Community and other benefits generally associated with the ownership of

You are obligated to pay to us annually, on the date determined by us,
an Annual Fee in an amount equal to the interest expense incurred by us
for your Loan. The Annual Fee will be an amount which is calculated by
multiplying the annual interest rate set forth in your Loan Agreement
when you make your Loan, times an amount equal to the difference
between the principal balance of your Loan and the amount which is
exempt from the below-market interest provisions of Section 7872 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. You are obligated to pay the
Annual Fee until your Loan is repaid.

you need health center services in the Community Health Center, you
will be requested to relocate to a private domiciliary care bed or a

9.1 FIRST NINETY (90) DAYS OF HEALTH CENTER SERVICES. We will provide
health center services in a private domiciliary care bed or a
semi-private comprehensive care bed in the Community Health Center

residents of the Community Health Center whose living units have been
released and reoccupied. Earnings from such Health Center Resident

encumbrances as described in the Health Center Resident Loans Escrow

the Baltimore County Medical Society as medical director who will be
available for emergency calls. You will be at liberty to engage the
services of the medical director at your own expense. We will not be
responsible for the cost of medical treatment by the medical director,
nor will we be responsible for the cost of medicine, drugs, prescribed
therapy, and similar additional services and supplies. If we incur or
advance costs for your medical treatment or for medicine, drugs,
prescribed therapy, and similar additional services and supplies, (even
though such medical care is given at the direction of your attending
physician or the medical director without your prior approval), you
will promptly reimburse us for such costs.
9.8 SUPPLEMENTAL INSURANCE. The Community will participate in the
Medicare program. Upon initial occupancy of your Apartment, you will
represent that you are entitled to Medicare Part A benefits and are
enrolled in the Medicare Part B program. Further, you will maintain,
while you are a resident of the Community, Medicare Part A, Medicare
Part B, and one health insurance policy to supplement Medicare or
equivalent insurance coverage acceptable to us, and, upon our request,
furnish us copies of such policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if,
upon initial occupancy, you are not eligible to enroll in the Medicare
program, you will not be required to enroll in the Medicare program
until you reach the age of eligibility. If such coverage is not
maintained by you, we may revoke your right to reside at the Community
and cancel this Agreement as provided in Section 11. The Community will
not participate in the Medicaid program, and you will not be required
to apply for Medicaid as a condition of continued residency.

describes the related health services and related charges.

Center room should it be necessary to protect your health and safety or
the health and safety of other residents. Should it be necessary to
modify facilities to meet requirements of the law which necessitate
temporary vacation of your Community Health Center room, we will
provide alternate facilities for you without additional cost within or
outside the Community. If relocation is recommended by the medical
director or your attending physician, we will request that you relocate
to another Community Health Center room only for the protection of your
health or safety or for the health or safety of the other residents of
the Community.
10. YOUR CANCELLATION RIGHTS.
You may cancel this Agreement at any time by giving us written notice
of cancellation signed by you (both of you if there are two of you) and
sent by registered or certified mail. If you give such notice prior to
your occupancy of the Community, the cancellation will be effective as
described in Section 2 above. If you give such notice after your
occupancy of the Community, this Agreement will be cancelled upon the
expiration of one hundred twenty (120) days from the date we receive
such notice of cancellation. If you give such notice, you will pay your
Monthly Charges until the expiration of such 120 days. Your Loan will
be repaid in accordance with the Loan Agreement. Your Annual Fee will
continue until your Loan is repaid.
11. OUR CANCELLATION RIGHTS.
11.1 JUST CAUSE. After we have accepted you for residency, we will not
cancel this Agreement except for just cause. Just cause is defined as:
11.1.1 Nonpayment; or
11.1.2 Material breach of this Agreement or the rules of the
Community; or
11.1.3 Health status or behavior which constitutes a
substantial threat to your health or safety or to the health or safety
of the other residents of the Community.
11.2 FINANCIAL DIFFICULTY. If, after you have paid the Entrance Fee,
you encounter financial difficulties making it impossible for you to
pay the full Monthly Charges, then:
11.2.1 You shall in any case be permitted to remain at the
Community for one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of failure
to pay, during which time you shall continue to pay reduced Monthly
Charges based on your current income; and
11.2.2 Because it is and shall continue to be our declared
policy to not cancel your residency solely by reason of your financial
inability to pay the full Monthly Charges, you shall be permitted to
remain at the Community at reduced Monthly Charges based on your
ability to pay for so long as you establish facts to justify deferral
of such charges, and the deferral of such charges can, in our sole
discretion, be granted without impairing our ability to operate on a
sound financial basis. The loss of revenue to the Community from any
such deferral of charges will be borne by us and will not be charged
back to other residents under the Fair Share Allocation. This provision
shall not apply if you have impaired your ability to meet your
financial obligations hereunder by making unapproved gifts or other
transfers. To evidence these agreements based on the circumstances at
the time, you agree to enter into a special hardship agreement with us
at the time of any such deferrals to reflect the reduced charges
currently payable and the interest rate to be applied to the deferrals
and to provide us with a perfected first security interest in your Loan
repayment rights. Any payments otherwise due to you from us, including
the repayment of your Loan, will be offset against any such deferred
charges as provided in Section 3.3.
11.3 NOTICE OF CANCELLATION. Prior to any cancellation of the Agreement
by us, we will give you notice in writing of the reasons, and you will
have sixty (60) days thereafter to correct the problem. If we determine
that the problem is corrected within such time, this Agreement shall
remain in effect. If we determine that the problem is not corrected
within such time, this Agreement will be cancelled and you must leave
the Community.
11.4 EMERGENCY NOTICE. Notwithstanding the above, if the medical
director determines that either the giving of notice or the waiting
period described above might be detrimental to you or others, then such
notice and/or waiting period shall not be required before relocation to
a hospital or other appropriate facility. Under such circumstances, we
are expressly authorized to transfer you to such hospital or other
facility, and we will promptly notify your representative and your
attending physician. Upon transferring you to such hospital or other
facility, we will immediately provide you with a notice of
cancellation. This Agreement shall be cancelled sixty (60) days
following notice, unless your condition improves and you are
subsequently readmitted to the Community.
12. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO YOUR APARTMENT.
12.1 USE OF APARTMENT. The Apartment is for living only and shall not
be used for carrying on any business or profession, nor in any manner
in violation of zoning restrictions.
12.2 DURATION OF YOUR RIGHT TO OCCUPY THE APARTMENT. You may reside in

maintaining yourself in independent living in the Apartment or this
Agreement is cancelled by you or by us. If, in the opinion of the
medical director or your attending physician, your physical or mental
health requires that health center services be given, you will be
requested to relocate to the Community Health Center where we are
licensed to provide such care. You will not be requested to relocate to
the Community Health Center unless necessary for your health or safety
or the health or safety of others. If there are no beds available in
the Community Health Center, you will be requested to relocate to

our then current admission policies), you shall pay the then current
second person Admission Fee as determined by us, and each month
thereafter, you shall pay the then current additional Monthly Charges
for second persons. If such second person does not meet the
requirements for residency, such second person will not be permitted to
occupy the Apartment for more than thirty (30) days (except with our
express written approval), and you may cancel this Agreement as
provided in Section 10.
12.4 EMERGENCY ENTRY AND RELOCATION. We may enter your Apartment should
it be necessary in an emergency to protect your health and safety or
the health and safety of other residents. Should it be necessary to
modify facilities to meet the requirements of law which necessitate
temporary vacation of your Apartment, we will provide alternate
facilities for you without additional cost within or outside the
Community. If relocation is recommended by the medical director or your
attending physician, we will request that you relocate to another

Section 7872 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. We will
provide you with annual informational returns which reflect the amount
of income, if any, resulting from your Loan and from the credit
described in Section 4.7 above. Any taxes payable by you as a result of
such income remains your responsibility.
14.10 LOAN SECURITY. Your mortgage rights which secure the repayment of
the Loan will always be prior to the lien of all indentures of trust,
mortgages, or other documents creating liens encumbering the Community
or any of the assets of the Community, which have been or will be

described in the Indemnity Deed of Trust. Upon request, you agree to
sign, acknowledge, and deliver to such holders of any permitted
encumbrances such further written evidence of such subordination as

for recovery in any court of general jurisdiction for injuries arising
out of our violation of the provisions of Article 70B of the Annotated
Code of Maryland as described in Section 14.17, any dispute, claim, or
controversy of any kind between you and us arising out of, in
connection with, or relating to this Agreement and any amendment
hereof, or the breach hereof, which cannot be resolved by mutual
agreement, will be submitted to and determined by arbitration in
Towson, Maryland in accordance with the then current commercial
arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association; provided,
however, that you and we will each be required to submit a proposed
resolution of such dispute or controversy to the arbitrator, and the
arbitrator will be required to render a decision adopting, in full,
either one or the other of such proposed resolutions, and no
compromises or alternative resolutions shall be allowed or considered
by the arbitrator. Both you and we will be bound by the arbitrator's
decision, and judgment upon such decision may be entered in any federal
or state court having jurisdiction unless the arbitration is fraudulent
or so grossly erroneous as to necessarily imply bad faith. You and we
will jointly agree on an arbitrator. If you and we are unable to agree
in good faith and within a reasonable time on the selection of an
arbitrator, either you or we may request appointment of an arbitrator
by the American Arbitration Association. Costs of arbitration,
including our legal costs and attorneys' fees, arbitrators' fees, and
similar costs, will be borne by all residents of the Community under
the Fair Share Allocation provided that the arbitrator may choose to
award the costs of arbitration against us if the arbitrator determines
that the proposed resolution urged by us was not reasonable. Any direct
arbitration costs incurred by you will be borne by you. If the issue
affects more than one resident, we may elect to join all affected
residents into a single arbitration proceeding, and you hereby consent
to such joinder.

represent and warrant that you are capable of independent living, free
of communicable disease, and have assets and income which are

written representations made to us with respect to such matters by you
or on your behalf on the Confidential Data Application or otherwise are
true.

from the Community will be made, except at our sole discretion.
14.17 LEGAL REMEDIES. Residents of facilities such as the Community are
protected by the provisions of Article 70B of the Annotated Code of
Maryland, which provides that residents injured by violation of that
subtitle may bring an action for the recovery of damages in any court
of general jurisdiction, and the award may include reasonable
attorneys' fees in the event of a favorable judgment. In addition,
residents injured by a violation of that subtitle, or the Maryland
Office on Aging on behalf of any resident, may institute an action for
an appropriate temporary restraining order or injunction. Any injured
resident, or the Maryland Office on Aging on behalf of any injured
resident, may petition for the appointment of a receiver in the event
of a threat of immediate closure of a facility or if the provider is
not honoring its contracts with its residents or to prohibit the
diversion of assets and records from the facility or the State of
Maryland.

expenses are provided by us pursuant to this Agreement.

Supervision Fee during the term of this Agreement. The Owner's
Supervision Fee may be used by us for any purpose.
4.2 SERVICE FEE. You will pay the following Service Fee for the services
and features provided under Section 6:
4.2.1 INITIAL SERVICE FEE. If the Community were in operation
during the fiscal year ending December 31, 19__, the Service Fee would be
$________________ a month for one person and an additional $_____________
a month if there are two of you. For subsequent fiscal years and until
the Fair Share Allocation has been implemented, the Service Fee will be
adjusted on the basis of the best information available at the time and
the prior year's inflation rate. The Fair Share Allocation will be
implemented when, in our sole discretion, the Community has had a
sufficient operating history to support its use and determination.
4.2.2 FAIR SHARE ALLOCATION. Upon implementation of the Fair
Share Allocation, the Service Fee will thereafter be your fair share of
the cash requirement of the Community (as described in Section 4.4
below).
The Fair Share Allocation has been developed to apportion the cash
requirement of the Community among its residents, based on such factors
as living unit size and type, number of second persons, and other
relevant factors as determined by us from time to time. A sample of the
current form of Fair Share Allocation formula is included in our most
current Information Booklet.
4.3 TOTAL MONTHLY CHARGES FOR APARTMENT. If the Community were in
operation during the fiscal year ending December 31, 19 , you would pay
total Monthly Charges (including second person charges if there are two
of you) of $_________ for the Owner's Supervision Fee and Service Fee.
4.4 CASH REQUIREMENT. The cash requirement of the Community is that
projected amount necessary to provide services and facilities to the
residents. The cash requirement is charged to all residents through the
Service Fee and application of the Fair Share Allocation. Generally, we
will determine the cash requirement based upon (i) the costs incurred in
connection with the operation of the Community for the prior fiscal year,
(ii) with adjustments made for inflation or deflation, occupancy rates,
changes to reserves, and nonrecurring expenses, and (iii) reduced by
certain projected Community income for the next fiscal year. Once
determined, the cash requirement is allocated among the residents
pursuant to the Fair Share Allocation. The determination of the cash
requirement is further explained below:
4.4.1 COSTS. Based upon the costs incurred in connection with
the operation of the Community for the prior fiscal year, we will
determine all anticipated expenses, costs, and other charges to the
Community for the next fiscal year, including but not limited to
salaries, wages, and fringe benefits of the Community employees and other
persons at the Community (including administrators); payroll taxes;
telephone; utilities; license fees, occupational taxes, property taxes,
sales taxes, permits, and other taxes (excluding only our income taxes);
legal and accounting fees and costs; bad debts and other losses;
insurance premiums, commissions, deductibles, and claims; consulting
fees; directors' expenses; food; supplies; interior, exterior, and
grounds replacement, repair, and maintenance, including living unit
refurbishment costs; capital improvements to the extent funds are not
available for such use from the Community's Capital Replacement Reserve
Fund (as described in Section 4.10); an amount equal to three percent
(3%) of the prior year's total cash requirement to fund the Capital
Replacement Reserve; management fees paid to others; management fees paid
to Life Care Services Corporation or to an affiliate of Life Care
Services Corporation of five percent (5%) of the total of revenues
(including first and second person Service Fees), plus reimbursable costs
incurred in performing management services as described in the management
agreement; debt service, including principal and interest (excluding only
principal payments on loans from residents); initial start-up losses, if
any, incurred after the earlier of ninety percent (90%) occupancy or nine
(9) months following initial occupancy; lease payments; occupancy
development costs; and other similar expenses, costs, and charges to the
Community.
4.4.2 ADJUSTMENTS. The foregoing projected expenses, costs, and
charges are then further adjusted by us to take into account anticipated
changes in reserves, working capital needs, services, the Community
Health Center utilization, living unit occupancy, inflation or deflation,
nonrecurring expenses, and other relevant factors.
4.4.3 COMMUNITY INCOME. The foregoing adjusted expenses, costs,
and charges are then reduced for certain projected income of the
Community for the next fiscal year, consisting of fees for additional
services, Community Health Center services, and investment income from
the Health Center Resident Loans Escrow, to result in the cash
requirement of the Community for the next fiscal year.
4.5 SERVICE FEE CHANGES.
4.5.1 EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 4.5.2 BELOW, WE WILL NOTIFY
YOU AT LEAST THIRTY (30) DAYS PRIOR TO THE END OF EACH FISCAL YEAR OF THE
NEW SERVICE FEE THAT WILL GO INTO EFFECT AT THE START OF THE NEXT FISCAL
YEAR. WE WILL NOT ADJUST YOUR SERVICE FEE MORE THAN ONCE EACH YEAR,
EXCEPT FOR THE YEAR DURING WHICH THE FAIR SHARE ALLOCATION IS
IMPLEMENTED.
4.5.2 IF YOU OCCUPY A DOMICILIARY CARE BED IN THE COMMUNITY
HEALTH CENTER, WE WILL NOTIFY YOU AT LEAST FORTY-FIVE (45) DAYS BEFORE
ANY CHANGE IN THE SERVICE FEE IS EFFECTIVE.
4.6 USE OF SERVICE FEE. The Service Fee will be used by us only for
purposes related to the Community. As part of the annual audit of the
Community, we will obtain an opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent auditors which confirms that the Service Fee has been used by
us only for purposes related to the Community. A copy of the annual audit
of the Community is available for your review upon your request.
4.7 CREDIT AGAINST INITIAL MONTHLY CHARGES. You will receive a credit
toward the payment of your Monthly Charges until the credit is fully
used. The credit is not available for any other purpose. The credit will
be in an amount equal to simple interest of five and one-half percent
(5.5%) per annum on your Admission Fee computed from the date of its
payment until the commencement of your Service Fee. The credit may result
in tax consequences to you as described in Section 13.9.
4.8 PAYMENT. You will pay a pro rata portion of the Owner's Supervision
Fee and Service Fee commencing on the earlier of (i) fifteen (15) days
after your Apartment is ready for occupancy (provided we give you at
least thirty (30) days' advanced notice of the date on which your
Apartment will be ready for occupancy) or (ii) the date you move into the
Community. Thereafter, such Monthly Charges will be payable on the first
day of each month in advance. Any additional charges for optional
services requested by you will be paid on the first day of each month for
the optional services obtained during the preceding month.
4.9 CANCELLATION OF MONTHLY CHARGES FOR APARTMENT. The Monthly Charges
for your Apartment will continue until the earlier of (i) your death (if
there are two of you, the death of the survivor) or (ii) the release of
your Apartment pursuant to the provisions regarding the Community Health
Center usage or (iii) the cancellation of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 10 or Section 11 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Monthly Charges for your Apartment will continue at least
until your furniture and other property are removed from the Apartment.
If removal of your furniture and other property is not accomplished
within thirty (30) days after the earlier of (i) your death (if there are
two of you, the death of the survivor) or (ii) the release of your
Apartment pursuant to the provisions regarding the Community Health
Center usage or (iii) the cancellation of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 10 or Section 11 of this Agreement, then we may remove and store
such furniture and other property at the expense and risk of you and your
estate. In the event there are two of you who occupy the Apartment and
one of you dies, the second person fees will cease and the remaining
person will continue to pay the first person Service Fee and Owner's
Supervision Fee.
4.10 CAPITAL REPLACEMENT RESERVE FUND. We will establish a Community
Capital Replacement Reserve Fund to be used only for improving or
replacing capital items of the Community which cost over $50,000. Such
reserve will be funded from monthly Service Fees as set forth in Section
4.4.1. A copy of the Capital Replacement Reserve Escrow Agreement is
available for review by you or by your advisors upon request.

The property comprising the Community is owned by The Chestnut Real
Estate Partnership, a Maryland proprietary general partnership and an
affiliate of ours. The Community is not affiliated with any religious or
charitable group or association. We and The Chestnut Real Estate
Partnership are solely responsible for all financial and contractual
obligations related to the Community. No portion of the expenses, costs,
and charges included in the Service Fee are paid to us or an affiliate as

8. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER.
If, in the opinion of the medical director or your attending physician,
you need health center services in the Community Health Center, you will
be requested to relocate to a private domiciliary care bed or a
semi-private comprehensive care bed, depending on the level of health
center services required by you. We will provide you health center
services to the extent authorized by our license on the following terms.
8.1 FIRST NINETY (90) DAYS OF HEALTH CENTER SERVICES. We will provide
health center services in a private domiciliary care bed or a
semi-private comprehensive care bed in the Community Health Center
without additional charge for ninety (90) cumulative days for you (ninety
(90) days for each of you if there are two of you, but the allowance
cannot be combined and used by only one of you), except that you will pay
the cost of the extra meals not covered by the Service Fee for your
Apartment at the then current charge for extra meals and for any
additional health services as described in Section 8.5. The monthly
Service Fee for your Apartment and your Owner's Supervision Fee will
continue as before.
8.2 MORE THAN NINETY (90) DAYS OF HEALTH CENTER SERVICES WHEN THERE IS
ONE OF YOU. If there is one of you, and you require health center
services beyond the ninety (90) cumulative days and you relocate to a
private domiciliary care bed or a semi-private comprehensive care bed in
the Community Health Center, your Monthly Charges will depend upon
whether you choose to release your Apartment:
8.2.1 If you choose to release your Apartment for occupancy by
someone else, the monthly Service Fee for your Apartment will cease.
Monthly Charges for your health center services will be equal to the then
current Service Fee for the one-bedroom deluxe apartment (unless your
Service Fee for your Apartment is less in which case the lesser Service
Fee shall apply). You will continue to pay your Owner's Supervision Fee.
In addition, you will pay for the cost of two meals per day at the then
current charge for extra meals and for any additional health services as
described in Section 8.5.
8.2.2 If you choose to not release your Apartment for occupancy
by someone else, the monthly Service Fee for your Apartment and your
Owner's Supervision Fee will continue. You will also pay Monthly Charges
for your health center services which will be equal to the then current
monthly Service Fee for the one-bedroom deluxe apartment (unless your
Service Fee for your Apartment is less in which case the lesser Service
Fee shall apply) plus an additional Owner's Supervision Fee. In addition,
you will pay for the cost of one meal per day at the then current charge
for extra meals and for any additional health services as described in
Section 8.5.
8.3 MORE THAN NINETY (90) DAYS OF HEALTH CENTER SERVICES WHEN THERE ARE
TWO OF YOU. If there are two of you, and only one of you requires health
center services beyond the ninety (90) cumulative days, and such Resident
relocates to a private domiciliary care bed or a semi-private
comprehensive care bed in the Community Health Center, there will be no
additional Monthly Charges for health center services except that you
will pay the cost of the two meals per day not covered by the Service Fee
for your Apartment at the then current charge for extra meals and for any
additional health services as described in Section 8.5. The monthly
Service Fee, including the second person Service Fee, for your Apartment
and the Owner's Supervision Fees will continue as before. If both of you
require health center services beyond the ninety (90) cumulative days,
and both of you relocate to a private domiciliary care bed or a
semi-private comprehensive care bed in the Community Health Center, your
Monthly Charges will depend upon whether you choose to release your
Apartment:
8.3.1 If you choose to release your Apartment for occupancy by
someone else, the monthly Service Fee, including the second person
Service Fee, for your Apartment will cease. Monthly Charges for your
health center services will be equal to the then current monthly Service
Fee, including the second person Service Fee, for the one-bedroom deluxe
apartment (unless your Service Fees for your Apartment are less in which
case the lesser monthly Service Fees shall apply). You will continue to
pay your Owner's Supervision Fees. In addition, you will pay for the cost
of four meals per day at the then current charge for extra meals and for
any additional health services as described in Section 8.5.
8.3.2 If you choose to not release your Apartment for occupancy
by someone else, the monthly Service Fee, including the second person
Service Fee, for your Apartment and your Owner's Supervision Fees will
continue. You will also pay Monthly Charges for your health center
services which will be equal to the then current monthly Service Fee,
including the second person Service Fee, for the one-bedroom deluxe
apartment (unless your Service Fees for your Apartment are less in which
case the lesser Service Fees shall apply) plus additional Owner's
Supervision Fees. In addition, you will pay the cost of two meals per day
at the then current charge for extra meals and for any additional health
services as described in Section 8.5.
8.4 RETURN TO APARTMENT. If you have released your Apartment because you
have moved to the Community Health Center, and if later you are able, in
the opinion of the medical director, to return to a living unit, we will
provide you a living unit of the same type as your Apartment as soon as
one becomes available. Upon reoccupying such living unit, your Monthly
Charges will be based on the then current charges for the living unit.
8.5 ADDITIONAL HEALTH SERVICES. We may also provide special services and
supplies in the Community Health Center such as therapy, pharmaceutical
supplies, personal laundry, and rental of equipment. These additional
services and supplies are not included in the Service Fees and the
Monthly Charges for health center services, but will be available for an
extra charge. Fees from such additional services will be used by us only
for purposes related to the Community.
8.6 MEDICAL DIRECTOR. We will designate a member in good standing of the
Baltimore County Medical Society as medical director who will be
available for emergency calls. You will be at liberty to engage the
services of the medical director at your own expense. We will not be
responsible for the cost of medical treatment by the medical director,
nor will we be responsible for the cost of medicine, drugs, prescribed
therapy, and similar additional services and supplies. If we incur or
advance costs for your medical treatment or for medicines, drugs,
prescribed therapy, and similar additional services and supplies (even
though such medical care is given at the direction of your attending
physician or the medical director without your prior approval), you will
promptly reimburse us for such costs.
8.7 SUPPLEMENTAL INSURANCE. The Community will participate in the
Medicare program. Upon initial occupancy of your Apartment, you will
represent that you are entitled to Medicare Part A benefits and are
enrolled in the Medicare Part B program. Further, you will maintain,
while you are a resident of the Community, Medicare Part A, Medicare Part
B, and one health insurance policy to supplement Medicare or equivalent
insurance coverage acceptable to us and, upon our request, furnish us
copies of such policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, upon initial
occupancy, you are not eligible to enroll in the Medicare program, you
will not be required to enroll in the Medicare program until you reach
the age of eligibility. If such coverage is not maintained by you, we may
revoke your right to reside at the Community and cancel this Agreement as
provided in Section 10. The Community will not participate in the
Medicaid program, and you will not be required to apply for Medicaid as a
condition of continued residency.
8.8 HEALTH CENTER ADDENDUM. If required by Maryland law in connection
with your relocation to the Community Health Center, you and we agree to
enter into an addendum to this Agreement which more specifically
describes the related health center services and related charges.
8.9 EMERGENCY ENTRY AND RELOCATION. We may enter your Community Health
Center room should it be necessary to protect your health and safety or
the health and safety of other residents. Should it be necessary to
modify facilities to meet requirements of the law which necessitate
temporary vacation of your Community Health Center room, we will provide
alternate facilities for you without additional cost within or outside
the Community. If relocation is recommended by the medical director or
your attending physician, we will request that you relocate to another
Community Health Center room only for the protection of your health or
safety or for the health or safety of the other residents of the
Community.
9. YOUR CANCELLATION RIGHTS.
You may cancel this Agreement at any time by giving us written notice of
cancellation signed by you (both of you if there are two of you) and sent
by registered or certified mail. If you give such notice prior to your
occupancy of the Community, cancellation will be effective as described
in Section 2 above. If you give such notice after your occupancy of the
Community, this Agreement will be cancelled upon the expiration of one
hundred twenty (120) days from the date we receive such notice of
cancellation. If you give such notice, you will pay your Monthly Charges
until the expiration of such 120 days. Any unearned portion of your
Entrance Fee will be refunded as provided in Section 3.1.
10. OUR CANCELLATION RIGHTS.
10.1 JUST CAUSE. After we have accepted you for residency, we will not
cancel this Agreement except for just cause. Just cause is defined as:
10.1.1 Nonpayment;
10.1.2 Material breach of this Agree ment or the rules of the
Community; or
10.1.3 Health status or behavior which constitutes a substantial
threat to your health or safety or to the health or safety of the other
residents of the Community.
10.2 FINANCIAL DIFFICULTY. If after you have paid the Entrance Fee you
encounter financial difficulties making it impossible for you to pay the
full Monthly Charges, then:
10.2.1 You shall in any case be permitted to remain at the
Community for one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of failure to
pay, during which time you shall continue to pay reduced Monthly Charges
based on your current income; and
10.2.2 Because it is and shall continue to be our declared
policy to not cancel your residency solely by reason of your financial
inability to pay the full Monthly Charges, you shall be permitted to
remain at the Community at reduced Monthly Charges based on your ability
to pay for so long as you establish facts to justify deferral of such
charges, and the deferral of such charges can, in our sole discretion, be
granted without impairing our ability to operate on a sound financial
basis. The loss of revenue to the Community from any such deferral of
charges will be borne by us and will not be charged back to other
residents under the Fair Share Allocation. This provision shall not apply
if you have impaired your ability to meet your financial obligations
hereunder by making unapproved gifts or other transfers. To evidence
these agreements based on the circumstances at the time, you agree to
enter into a special hardship agreement with us at the time of any such
deferrals to reflect the reduced charges currently payable and the
interest rate to be applied to the deferrals. Any payments otherwise due
to you from us, including the refund of your Entrance Fee, will be offset
against any such deferred charges as provided in Section 3.3.
10.3 NOTICE OF CANCELLATION. Prior to any cancellation of the Agreement
by us, we will give you notice in writing of the reasons, and you will
have sixty (60) days thereafter to correct the problem. If we determine
that the problem is corrected within such time, this Agreement shall
remain in effect. If we determine that the problem is not corrected
within such time, this Agreement will be cancelled and you must leave the
Community.
10.4 EMERGENCY NOTICE. Notwithstanding the above, if the medical director
determines that either the giving of notice or the waiting period
described above might be detrimental to you or others, then such notice
and/or waiting period shall not be required before relocation to a
hospital or other appropriate facility. Under such circumstances, we are
expressly authorized to transfer you to such hospital or other facility,
and we will promptly notify your representative and your attending
physician. Upon transferring you to such hospital or other facility, we
will immediately provide you with a notice of cancellation. This
Agreement shall be cancelled sixty (60) days following notice, unless
your condition improves and you are subsequently readmitted to the
Community.
11. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO YOUR APARTMENT.
11.1 USE OF APARTMENT. The Apartment is for living only and shall not be
used for carrying on any business or profession, nor in any manner in
violation of zoning restrictions.
11.2 DURATION OF YOUR RIGHT TO OCCUPY THE APARTMENT. You may reside in
your Apartment for as long as you live unless you are not capable of
maintaining yourself in independent living in the Apartment or this
Agreement is cancelled by you or by us. If, in the opinion of the medical
director or your attending physician, your physical or mental health
requires that health center services be given, you will be requested to
relocate to the Community Health Center where we are licensed to provide
such care. You will not be requested to relocate to the Community Health
Center unless necessary for your health or safety or the health or safety
of others. If there are no beds available in the Community Health Center,
you will be requested to relocate to another health facility with which
we will contract to provide health center services. You will continue to
pay the applicable Monthly Charges to us, and you will be relocated to
the Community Health Center as soon as a bed is available.

other than you may occupy the Apartment except with our express written

Agreement is accepted for residency under this Agreement at a time
subsequent to the date hereof (said acceptance to be in accordance with
our then current admission policies), you shall pay the then current
second person Admission Fee as determined by us, and each month
thereafter, you shall pay the then current additional Monthly Charges
for second persons. If such second person does not meet the requirements
for residency, such second person will not be permitted to occupy the
Apartment for more than thirty (30) days (except with our express written
approval), and you may cancel this Agreement as provided in Section 9.
11.4 EMERGENCY ENTRY AND RELOCATION. We may enter your Apartment should
it be necessary in an emergency to protect your health and safety or the
health and safety of other residents. Should it be necessary to modify
facilities to meet requirements of the law which necessitate temporary
vacation of your Apartment, we will provide alternate facilities for you
without additional cost within or outside the Community. If relocation is
recommended by the medical director or your attending physician, we will
request that you relocate to another living unit within the Community or
to the Community Health Center only for the protection of your health or

Agreement shall become subject to the terms of this Agreement.
2. The Partnership expects to receive a deposit of a portion of an
entrance fee (the "Deposit") from each prospective resident of Blakehurst Phase
I at the time of execution of a Residency Agreement. The Partnership will accept
such Deposit in the form of a check from a Resident made payable to the Escrow
Agent, and will deposit the same in an escrow account maintained by the Escrow
Agent (the "Escrow Account") as soon as practicable in the ordinary course of
business.
3. The Escrow Agent shall maintain each Deposit described in Section 2
of this Agreement in the name of the Resident in the Escrow Account separate and

by the Resident in the form of a fully executed Residency Agreement signed by
the Partnership and the Resident.
5. The Escrow Agent agrees to the following: (a) upon request of the
Partnership, to issue a statement indicating the status of the Escrow Account
maintained by the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement; (b) upon request of a
Resident, to issue a statement indicating the status of such Resident's balance
in the Escrow Account maintained by the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement;
and (c) to furnish the Partnership with a monthly statement indicating the
amount of any disbursements from or deposits to the Escrow Account during the
monthly period covered by the statement.
6. If the Escrow Agent receives written notice from the Partnership of

Residency Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall return such Deposit directly to the
Resident (or the estate of the Resident, if the Resident is deceased), in the
amount specified by the Partnership and in accordance with the Partnership's
written instruction. The Escrow Agent shall promptly refer to the Partnership
any and all communications or requests for refunds received directly from
Residents.

This Agreement amends and restates the Health Center Resident Loans

relating to the escrowing of resident loans. The Partnership and Escrow Agent
wish by this Agreement to supersede and replace the Prior Agreement.
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, the Partnership is the sponsor of a life-care retirement

("Resident"); and
WHEREAS, in order to protect a Resident of Blakehurst who has
transferred to the community's health center (the "Community Health Center") and
who has released his/her apartment for reoccupancy, the parties desire to enter
into this Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the terms under which certain
deposits will be made with the Escrow Agent for the purpose of maintaining an
escrow account (the "Escrow Account") to secure Loan (as hereinafter defined)
payments when a Resident is assigned to the Community Health Center and releases
his/her apartment for reoccupancy.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and mutual promises
herein set forth, the parties agree as follows:
1. PRIOR AGREEMENT. All loans held by the Previous Escrow Agent
pursuant to the Prior Agreement shall become subject to the terms of this
Agreement.
2. LOAN. In accordance with Section 9.4 of the Residency Agreements,
the Partnership shall deposit an amount equal to the amount of the Resident's
loan (the "Loan"), upon the Resident's transfer to the Community Health Center,
release of the Resident's apartment, and reoccupancy of the apartment by a new
resident. Such deposit will be specifically identified with the Resident's Loan,
although the funds will be maintained jointly with other similar deposits held
in escrow for all residents of the Community Health Center whose apartments have
been released and reoccupied.
3. PERMITTED ENCUMBRANCES. Any deposit in the Escrow Account will be
subject only to those encumbrances ("Permitted Encumbrances") to which the
deposit was subject at the time it is deposited in the Escrow Account.
4. ESCROW ACCOUNT. The Escrow Agent shall maintain all such deposits
made to the Escrow Account separate and apart from any other funds of the
Partnership, and deposits will be specifically indentified with the Resident's

provided in paragraph 7.2 of this Agreement. Earnings from such Escrow Account
will be used by the Partnership only for purposes related to the Community.
5. INVESTMENTS. The Escrow Agent shall invest all amounts held by it

Agent or its affiliates, which holds a portfolio of such securities) or in such
certificates of deposit, savings accounts, or other savings or investment
securities as the Partnership may from time to time direct in writing.
6. REPORTS. The Escrow Agent agrees, upon the request of the
Partnership, to issue a statement indicating the status of the Escrow Account

trust at the same time that it is provided to the Escrow Agent. The
written notice shall contain the following: (1) a statement that the
Residency Agreement has been cancelled; (2) the date of such

employed, which may include delivery to the Partnership for immediate
delivery to the Resident or the Resident's estate or trust; and (7) a
certificate of an officer of the Partnership that such payment does not
contravene any agreement to which the Partnership is a party or by

day after receipt of such notice, disburse to the Resident or the
Resident's estate or trust, an amount equal to the amount of the Loan
less the amount of setoff, and shall disburse to the Partnership an

dispute exists with respect to the amount to be disbursed to the
Resident or the Resident's estate or trust, and/or to the Partnership,
the Escrow Agent shall pay all amounts associated with any dispute into

Exhibit 10.13.2
AMENDMENT #2 TO DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
This Amendment #2 to Development Agreement ("Amendment #2") is made and
entered into as of the 30 day of October, 1996, by and between The Chestnut
Partnership (the "Owner"), Life Care Services Corporation ("LCS"), LCS
Development Corp ("LCSD") (a subsidiary of LCS), Rosedale Care, Inc. and
Continental Care, Inc.
WHEREAS the Owner and LCS entered into a Development Agreement dated
June 3, 1988 (the "Agreement") for certain enumerated services to be provided by
LCS at the retirement facility located in Baltimore, Maryland known as
"Blakehurst" (the "Project"); and
WHEREAS the Agreement was amended on December 31, 1994 ("Amendment
#1"), wherein Rosedale Care, Inc. and Continental Care, Inc. became Parties to
the Agreement for certain purposes relating to Phase II of the Project; and
WHEREAS the Parties desire to amend the Agreement as it relates to
Phase III of the Project to provide that LCSD shall provide development services
for Phase III of the Project, more specifically described as the addition of 35
apartment units over a 19-car parking garage, an enclosed swimming pool with
support facilities, 12 surface garages with 31 surface parking spaces near the
new residential wing and 27 surface parking spaces near the health center
("Phase III").
WHEREAS LCS was incorporated under the laws of the state of Missouri at
the time the Agreement was executed, and subsequently was reincorporated under
the laws of the state of Iowa, and is acknowledged by the parties to be the
successor to all rights and obligations of LCS under the Agreement, Amendment #1
and this Amendment #2.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties do hereby agree that the Agreement is hereby
amended as follows:
LCSD shall provide all necessary services as contemplated in the Agreement to
develop Phase III of the Project with the following revisions:
1. The first sentence in paragraph 5.3 of Article V is deleted and the
following is substituted therefor: "Mullan Contracting shall perform
the construction management services for the Project."
2. Paragraphs 8.1 and 8.2 of Article VIII are deleted and the following
are substituted therefor: "8.1 In consideration for the performance of
the planning and development, arranging for financing, occupancy
development, arranging for design and construction, and bookkeeping
services contemplated in Articles II, III, IV, V and VI hereof, in
connection with Phase III of the Project, the Owner agrees to pay LCSD
a development fee ("Development Fee") equal in amount to $585,000
broken into two segments, a progress fee ("Progress Fee") and a
performance fee ("Performance Fee"). As more particularly described
hereafter, the Progress Fee shall be payable based on the percent of
development activity complete and will not be at risk, and the
Performance Fee will be payable based on Project performance and will
be at risk depending on the successful delivery of the Project. The
schedule for payment for both fee segments shall be as set forth in
paragraph 8.2, following:
8.2. Subject to paragraph 8.1 above, the Progress Fee and Performance
Fee shall be earned and paid as follows:
8.2.1 PROGRESS FEE. Fifty percent (50%) of the total
Development Fee, or $292,500, shall be allocated to the
Progress Fee, which shall be earned and paid as follows:
- fifty percent (50%), or $146,250, shall be paid on the
date of the initial disbursement of the construction loan
for Phase III.
- thirty-five percent (35%), or $102,375, shall be paid
monthly during construction of Phase III, payable
commensurate with the percentage of completion of
construction of Phase III.
- fifteen percent (15%) or $43,875, shall be paid monthly
commensurate with the percentage of occupancy of Phase III
up to approximately ninety-two percent (92%) first time
closings (32 units), at which time the balance of the
Progress Fee shall be paid.
8.2.2 PERFORMANCE FEE. The Performance Fee shall be fifty
percent (50%) of the total fee, or $292,500. The Performance
Fee, however, shall be based on the total financial outcome of
the Project at completion of Phase III compared to the
financial outcome projected initially in the Base Capital Cost
Budget as defined below. To measure financial performance a
spread calculation will be utilized. The spread shall be the
difference between total Poject revenues (i.e., entrance fees,
cancellation penalties, garage fees, etc.) and total Project
costs (i.e., construction cost, interest expense, start-up
loss, etc., excluding increases or decreases to Reserves) as
identified in the Base Capital Cost Budget as adjusted by
agreement of the parties. If the spread remaining at the end
of the Project is equal to or greater than the spread
projected in the Base Capital Cost Budget at the beginning of
the Project, LCSD will earn and shall be paid the full
Performance Fee ($292,500). If the spread at the end of the
Project is less than the spread projected in the Base Capital
Cost Budget of at the beginning of the Project, LCSD will earn
a lower Performance Fee, reduced dollar for dollar, up to a
maximum of $292,500, which is the full amount of LCSD's
Performance Fee. For spread calculation purposes, if the Owner
elects to sell contracts other than 90% return of capital
("ROC") contracts, the "lost" revenue from those sales shall
not affect the calculation of the Performance Fee. The Base
Capital Cost Budget projects all sales to occur as 90% ROC
contracts.
The Performance Fee shall be earned and paid as follows:
Performance shall be measured by comparing the spread of the
capital cost budget initially approved at the start of
construction ("Base Capital Cost Budget") with the spread of
an updated budget prepared at the following Project
milestones: (i) close of financing/construction start, (ii)
construction completion/first occupancy, and (iii) achievement
of 32 first time closings. The Base Capital Cost Budget is
attached hereto as Exhibit A. From the Base Capital Cost
Budget, the initial spread calculation shall be performed as
follows:
Total Project Revenues $ 9,774,000
Less Total Project Costs Excluding Reserves $11,104,200
-----------
Initial Spread Calculation ($ 1,330,200)
At each of the three milestone comparisons, an updated spread
calculation will be performed comparing total Project revenue
to total Project cost. The updated spread calculation will
then be compared against the initial spread calculation to
determine what, if any, Performance Fees are to be paid.
If the spread calculation performed at each milestone update
meets or exceeds the initial spread calculation, the following
Performance Fees shall be earned and paid at that time:
* Milestone #1 - close of financing/construction start
- fifty percent (50%) or $146,250
* Milestone #2 - construction completion/first occupancy
- thirty-five percent (35%) or $102,375
* Milestone #3 - achievement of 32 first time closings
fifteen percent (15%) or $43,875
If the spread calculation performed at any milestone update is
less than the initial spread calculation, the Performance Fee
calculated shall be reduced dollar for dollar by that amount
up to an aggregate maximum of $292,500.
The following example calculation simulates the three
milestone spread calculations.

1. Calculation @ Milestone #1 - Close of Financing/Construction Start
Spread = ($1,300,000)
Since ($1,300,000) is an improvement from the initial spread of ($1,330,200), full
progress Performance Fee earned and paid at this time.
Performance Progress Fee = $292,500 x 50% = $146,250
2. Calculation @ Milestone #2 - Construction Completion/First Occupancy
Spread = ($1,500,000)
Actual Spread vs. Initial Spread Variance=($1,500,000)-($1,330,200)= ($169,800)
Net Fee Remaining for Fee Calculation = $292,500 - $169,800 = $122,700
Performance Progress Fee = $122,700 x 85% = $104,295
Net Performance Progress Fees =
$104,295 - $146,250 (fees paid previously) = ($41,955)
Therefore, LCSD to pay back $41,955 at this time.
3. Calculation @ Milestone #3 - Achievement of 32 First Time Closings
Assumptions: 4 traditional contract sales this period with lost revenue of $300,000
Spread = ($1,600,000)
Revised Spread due to traditional contracts =
($1,600,000) + $300,000 (lost traditional contract revenue) = ($1,300,000)
Since ($1,300,000) is an improvement from the initial spread of ($1,330,200),
full final Performance Fee earned = $292,500
Final Performance Fee Payment =$292,500-$104,295 (fees paid previously) =$188,205

apply to Phase III.
4. References in the Agreement to LCS shall be deemed to refer to LCSD for
all purposes with respect to Phase III except that paragraphs 2.8 and
3.4 of the Agreement shall be deemed to refer to LCS and not to LCSD,
and references to LCS in Sections 7.9, 9.2 and 9.4 (except the first
sentence) shall be deemed to refer to both LCS and LCSD.
5. Paragraph 9.11 of the Agreement is deleted and the following is

THAT, WHEREAS the Owner intends to develop and construct an addition to
the life-care community known as Blakehurst hereinafter called the Project, and
wishes to engage the Contractor to perform construction management services in
connection therewith.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Contractor and the Owner, for the consideration
hereinafter named, agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1
THE WORK TO BE DONE AND THE DOCUMENTS FORMING THE CONTRACT
1.1 The Contractor agrees to provide all the labor and materials to do all
things necessary for proper construction and completion of the work, hereinafter
called the Work, shown and described by the Drawings, Project Manual, and
Addenda to be prepared by D'Aleo Associates and as generally described in the
preliminary drawings as listed in Exhibit "A" attached hereto.
1.2 The said Drawings, Project Manual, and Addenda, hereinafter called the
Drawings and Project Manual, together with this Agreement, shall constitute the
Contract; the Drawings and Project Manual being as fully a part hereof as if
hereto attached or herein repeated. If anything in the Project Manual's General
Conditions is inconsistent with this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern.
Drawings, Project Manual and Addenda that constitute the basis of the Guaranteed
Maximum Cost will be listed in a revised Exhibit "A" and attached hereto.

2.1 Contractor shall operate as a construction manager and shall perform the
Work through the use of subcontractors. The division of Work into subcontract
bid packages shall be the responsibility of the Contractor. Contractor shall
award subcontracts to the lowest qualified bidders. The Owner shall have the
right to review all subcontract proposals, participate in value engineering for
the project, and review the Contractor's estimate for the Guaranteed Maximum
Cost.
2.2 The only exceptions to this method of performing Work shall be as follows:
2.2.1 Contractor may purchase materials directly for installation by a
subcontractor.
2.2.2 Contractor may perform work directly with his own labor forces in

that the Guaranteed Maximum Cost is established.
4.1.2 The total of the Contractor's Reimbursable Costs as defined in
Article 6 less any discounts, rebates or refunds which accrue to the
Owner pursuant to Article 7, provided that the total of such

subcontractor bidding. The Guaranteed Maximum Cost may be equitably
adjusted if construction has not commenced within ninety (90) days
after the date that the Guaranteed Maximum Cost was established through
no fault of the Contractor. If the total of the Contractor's
Reimbursable Cost less discounts, rebates or refunds exceed such
Guaranteed Maximum Cost, all costs and expense in excess of said
Guaranteed Maximum Cost will be borne by the Contractor, and the Owner
shall have no obligation to pay any costs in excess thereof.

any such cost included by it as a part of the money required by the Contractor
to cover any such cost included by it as a part of the Contractor's Reimbursable
Costs including any previous payments by the Owner for such costs not apparent
at the time of payment.
ARTICLE 9
PAYMENTS
9.1 Based upon Applications for Payment on AIA forms G702 and G702A submitted to
the Architect by the Contractor and Certificates for Payment issued by the
Architect the Owner shall make progress payments on account of the Contract Sum
to the Contractor as provided in the Project Manual and as follows:
9.1.1 The Owner will make payment on or about the twenty fifth (25th) day
of each month, ninety percent (90%) of the proportion of the Contract Sum
properly allocable to labor, materials, and equipment incorporated in the Work
and ninety percent (90%) of the portion of the Contract Sum properly allocable
to materials and equipment suitably stored up to the last day of the previous
month, less the aggregate of previous payments in each case. Retainage will not
be withheld for those costs defined in paragraphs, 6.1.2, 6.1.3, 6.1.6, 6.1.8
and 6.1.11 and fee. Commencing with the second Application for Payment,
Contractor shall include partial mechanic lien waivers, if required by the
Owner, in conformity with Maryland law by and from each subcontractor and itself
that payment has been received for all monies due under the prior Application
for Payment. This procedure shall also apply to the final Application for
Payment and payment of any balance including retainage, if required by the
Owner. When the improvements are 50% complete all remaining payments shall be
for 100% in lieu of 90% above.
9.2 As part of Contractor's final Application for Payment, the Contractor will
adjust the Contract Sum to reflect the actual Contractor's Reimbursable Costs
and shall furnish to the Owner a certified listing of the total Contractor's
Reimbursable Costs (as defined in Article 6).
9.3 Final payment, constituting the entire unpaid balance of the Contract Sum,
shall be paid by the Owner to the Contract thirty (30) days after substantial
completion of the Work (unless otherwise stipulated in the Certificate of
Substantial Completion) provided the Work has been completed, the Contract fully
performed, and a final Certificate of Payment has been issued by the Architect.
If the Owner disputes the amount of the balance claimed by the Contractor to be
due and payable at the time of issuance of the final Certificate for Payment,
the Owner shall then pay to the Contractor retainage less any disputed amount
and the Contract shall be deemed completed and accepted, but neither the payment
nor receipt of such portion of the final payment shall be deemed a waiver of
claims of either party relating to the disputed amount. In no event shall the
Owner retain more, than the Architect determines is necessary to pay the cost of
any remaining minor items not affecting the use of the Project.
9.4 Upon mutual agreement by the Owner and Contractor, payment in full may be
made to those subcontractors whose Work is fully completed during the early
stages of the Project, or any retained amounts reduced with respect to
subcontractors at such times as the parties may mutually agree, which agreement
will not be unreasonably withheld. Agreement to any such reduction in retained
amounts will not constitute a waiver of or otherwise prejudice the Owner's right
to subsequently reinstate full retainage, as to that subcontractor, should
circumstances justify such action in the Owner's sole judgment.
ARTICLE 10
ACCOUNTING, INSPECTION, AUDIT
10.1 The Contractor shall check all materials, equipment and labor entering into
the Work and shall keep such full and detailed accounts as may be necessary for
proper financial management under this Agreement and the system shall be such as
is satisfactory to the Architect, the Owner or to an auditor appointed by the
Owner. The Architect, the Owner, the auditor and their timekeepers and clerks
shall be afforded access to the Work and to all the Contractor's books, records,
correspondence, instructions, drawings, receipts, vouchers, memoranda, etc.
relating to this Agreement, and the Contractor shall preserve all such records
for a period of three (3) years after the final payment hereunder.
ARTICLE 11
CORRECTION OF WORK
11.1 The cost of correcting defective workmanship or materials, including the
cost of uncovering and the cost of tests, shall be considered Contractor's
Reimbursable Costs whether incurred before or after final payment, except when:
11.1.1 The defective workmanship or material is the responsibility of and
is corrected by a subcontractor at the cost of the subcontractor;
11.1.2 The rejected workmanship or material is due to causes described in
paragraph 8.1.5; or
11.1.3 The total of said costs of corrective work together with all other
Contractor's Reimbursable Costs exceeds the Guaranteed Maximum Cost, in which
event the excess shall be borne by the Contractor.
ARTICLE 12

NOTE: A complete submission of AIA Document A201, General Conditions of the
Contract for Construction, was made in Exhibit 10.19 of the 1991 S-1 filing. All
changes to that document are noted in the succeeding documented titled
"Supplementary General Conditions of Construction Management Agreement."
SUPPLEMENTARY GENERAL CONDITIONS
OF CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
These Supplementary General Conditions modify, change, delete from or add to the
"General Conditions of the Contract For Construction," AIA Document A201,
Fourteenth Edition, 1987, and shall supersede the General Conditions to the
extent inconsistent or in conflict therewith. Where any Article of the General
Conditions is modified, or any Paragraph, Subparagraph or Clause thereof is
modified or deleted by these Supplementary General Conditions, the unaltered
provisions of that Article, Paragraph, Subparagraph or Clause shall remain in
effect:
Subparagraph 3.2.1, delete lines 7-15, beginning in line 7 after
the term "Contract Documents."
Subparagraph 3.18.4, add:
"Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless the contractor for
claims, etc., arising from negligent acts of the Owner for
injuries and damages of the type described in subparagraph
3.18.1 of the General Conditions, all as if said subparagraph
3.18.1 and related subparagraphs were set forth at length in
this subparagraph 3.18.4., only to the extent caused in whole
or in part by negligent acts of the Owner, anyone directly or
indirectly employed by the Owner, or anyone for whose acts
they may be liable, regardless of whether or not such claim,
damage, loss or expense caused in part by a party indemnified
hereunder."
Subparagraph 4.5.8, add as a new subparagraph:
"4.5.8 Procedural Issues. The arbitration shall be held in
Baltimore, MD. Each party shall bear its own direct costs,
including attorney's fees, but general costs of the
arbitration shall be shared by both parties equally; provided,
the arbitrator may choose to award the general costs of
arbitration against the losing party if the arbitrator
determines that the proposed resolution urged by the losing
party was not reasonable. Notwithstanding anything in the
Contract Documents to the contrary, each party shall be
required to submit its proposed resolutions of each Claim to
the arbitrator, and the arbitrator shall be required to render
a decision adopting in full either one or the other of such
proposed resolutions, and no compromises or alternative
resolutions shall be allowed or considered by the arbitrator.
Each party shall be entitled to full discovery and the
process, proceedings, practices and procedures provided for
under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure in effect at the
time notice of demand for arbitration is filed. Either party
may request the selection of up to 3 arbitrators."
Subparagraph 4.5.9, add as a new subparagraph:
"4.5.9 Limitations on Arbitration. Notwithstanding anything in
the Contract Documents to the contrary, if the (1) Claims
involve a proposed, net aggregate payment or reimbursement in
an amount greater than $50,000, or (2) the Claims involve an
interested person or entity (including the Architect) who has
not consented to be joined in the arbitration, then
arbitration shall apply only if both parties consent to
arbitration. For this purpose an "interested person or entity"
means any person or entity if (1) in such interested person or
entity's absence, complete relief cannot be accorded among
those already parties, or (2) the interested person or entity
is so situated that the disposition of the Claim without the
joinder of such interested person or entity may leave any of
those already parties subject to a substantial risk of
incurring double, multiple or otherwise inconsistent
obligations. If both parties do not consent to arbitration for
such Claims as described herein, then all requirements,
conditions, and conditions precedent pertaining to arbitration
shall be deemed appropriately adjusted to permit either party
to pursue such Claims as otherwise permitted by the Contract
Documents or by law."
Subparagraph 5.2.1, change "promptly" to "within 10 days" in lines
7 and 11.
Subparagraph 9.3.1.2, delete in its entirety.
Subparagraph 9.7.1, change line 6 as follows:
"titled by the Architect or awarded by arbitration, or if the
Owner does not promptly furnish evidence as required by
subparagraph 2.2.1, then the Con-".
Subparagraph 10.1.1, add at the end:
"The Contractor shall have no responsibility for the
discovery, presence, handling, removal, disposal or exposure
of persons to toxic substances in any form at the site."
Subparagraph 10. 1.2, add after the phrase "asbestos or
polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)", the phrase "or other toxic
substances", in lines 2-3, 8, 10- 11.
Subparagraph 10. 1. 3, add at the end:
"...or other toxic substances."
Subparagraph 10.1.4, delete in its entirety and substitute the
following:
"10.1.4 The Owner agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Contractor and its employees, officers, agents and
subcontractors (regardless of tier) from and against any and
all liabilities, losses, claims, damages, demands, judgments,
interest, penalties, fines, monetary sanctions, costs,
attorney's fees, expenses, court costs, and all other costs
and expenses (collectively "Costs") resulting from, in
connection with, or arising in any manner whatsoever out of
the toxic substances. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, it is agreed that such indemnification shall apply
to any Costs incurred as a result of: (a) complying with all
federal, state and local environmental health and safety
rules, laws, regulations and ordinances and/or orders,
directives and/or recommendations of any governmental entity
having jurisdiction for the enforcement of such laws, rules,
regulations and ordinances which may now or may hereafter be
in effect and be applicable to or be issued in connection with
the toxic substances; (b) performing or arranging for the
performance of medical examinations of individuals exposed to
the toxic substances, maintaining medical records for such
individuals and conducting any employee educational programs,
whether or not such tests, recordkeeping or programs are
currently required by applicable law; (c) involvement in any
suits or actions asserting public or employer liability
resulting from the toxic substances; and (d) performing the
Work, which for this purpose shall include the disposal of any
toxic substances which may have been undertaken by the
Contractor.
10.1.5 The Owner agrees to pay and/or reimburse the Contractor
for all additional costs of the Work together with any impact
costs and expenses incurred by the Contractor in the
resequencing and/or performance of the Work under the Contract
which would not have been incurred but for the toxic
substances. The Contract Sum and the Guaranteed Maximum Price,
if applicable, shall be increased by the amount of the
additional Cost of the Work to be paid and/or reimbursed to
the Contractor pursuant to this Subparagraph 10.1.5.
10.1.6 The obligations of the Owner as set forth in this
Paragraph 10.1 shall survive the termination of the Contract."
