             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


          (i)    The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein
have been prepared by LTC Properties, Inc. (the "Company"), without audit, and
include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a
fair presentation of the results of operations for the three-month and six-month
periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries
and controlled partnerships. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes
that the disclosures in the accompanying financial statements are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading. The results of operations for the
three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are not
necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

          (ii)   No provision has been made for federal income taxes. The
Company qualifies as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under Sections 856
through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As such, the
Company is not taxed on its income provided that at least 95 percent of its
taxable income is distributed to its stockholders.
 
          (iii)  During the six-month period ended June 30, 1996, the Company
invested in mortgage loans totaling $57,010,000 secured by, among other things,
23 skilled nursing facilities located in 11 states with a total of 2,884 beds
and certain guarantees.  The mortgage loans, which individually range from
$1,200,000 to $11,250,000 in principal amount, have stated maturities of 7 to 15
years, generally have 25-year amortization schedules, have an initial weighted
average interest rate of 10.55%, generally provide for increases in the interest
rate and contain certain facility fees.  In addition, the Company provided a
$1,000,000 additional advance on a previously existing loan.
 
          In March 1996, the Company provided non-recourse mortgage loans
secured by long-term care facilities to three of its wholly owned subsidiaries
and to certain partnerships in which the Company was a general partner totaling
$31,525,000. Concurrent with the closing of the loans, the Company completed a
real estate mortgage investment conduit ("REMIC") transaction in which loans
totaling $112,487,000, including the $31,525,000 originated in 1996, were
exchanged for mortgage pass-through certificates for an equal amount. See note
(iv).
 
          In addition to the mortgage loans, the Company acquired for
approximately $27,430,000 14 assisted living residences ("ALFs") in Alabama,
Texas and Washington with a total of 509 units. Thirteen of these ALFs were
purchased for a total of $26,180,000 and have been leased to Assisted Living
Concepts, Inc. ("ALC") for a total annual rent of approximately $2,485,000
(subject to increases) pursuant to long-term non-cancelable agreements. Included
in the leases to ALC were five ALFs in Washington which were purchased for
$11,280,000 and had been financed by the Company through the issuance of

                                  (CONTINUED)

$8,300,000 of multi-family tax-exempt revenue bonds in December 1995 that have a
total cost of funds of approximately 5.9%. As of June 30, 1996, the Company had
acquired all five of the Washington ALFs and had leased them to ALC generating
an initial annual rent of approximately $948,000. The Company also acquired for
$14,450,000 four skilled nursing facilities in Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee
with a total of 472 beds.

          During the six months ended June 30, 1996, six newly formed limited
partnerships, of which the Company is the general partner, acquired 16 skilled
nursing facilities in Alabama, Arizona, Iowa and Texas for a total of
approximately $53,741,000. These facilities were purchased subject to mortgage
loans of approximately $9,641,000. Under the partnership agreements, the Company
has guaranteed payment of a 10% preferred return to the holders of the
$8,932,000 in limited partnership interests. Under certain circumstances, the
limited partnership interests can be exchanged, at the option of the holder,
into 628,511 shares of the Company's common stock commencing in January and July
1997. The mortgage loans of $9,641,000 assumed by the Company have an initial
average interest rate of 11.64%, are due in 2002-2005 and are currently owned by
REMICs formed by the Company in 1993 and 1994. In conjunction with these REMICs,
the Company sold senior certificates to third parties in 1993 and 1994 at a
blended interest rate of approximately 7.1% and 8.9%, respectively, and retained
the remaining certificates.

      (iv) On March 29, 1996, the Company securitized approximately $112,487,000
of loans by creating a REMIC which, in turn, issued mortgage pass-through
certificates for the same amount in the form of various classes of certificates
(the "Certificates"). As part of the securitization, the Company sold
approximately $90,552,000 of Certificates to third parties at an effective
interest rate of 7.19%. The Company retained the remaining $21,935,000 face
amount of such Certificates which are effectively subordinated in right of
payment to the Certificates sold to third parties. The net proceeds from the
REMIC transaction were used to repay borrowings outstanding under the Company's
lines of credit. The mortgage loans represented by the Certificates consists of
34 mortgage loans, including the loans provided to the Company's wholly owned
subsidiaries and to the limited partnerships totaling $31,525,000, and are
secured by 55 skilled nursing facilities in 17 states. The mortgage loans in the
REMIC pool have an initial weighted average mortgage interest rate of 10.69% and
a weighted average remaining term to stated maturity of approximately 107
months. Concurrently with the closing of the REMIC transaction, the Company's
interest rate swap agreement entered into in May 1995 was terminated at a cost
of approximately $1,500,000. Because the purpose of the agreement was to hedge
the interest rate spread on the mortgages underlying a portion of the
Certificates sold to third parties, the costs of terminating the swap, along
with other costs of the transaction are reflected in the carrying value of the
retained Certificates. The Certificates retained by the Company have a weighted
average effective yield of approximately 18.0%.

             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  (CONTINUED)

           The mortgage-backed securities owned by the Company, which at June
30, 1996 had a carrying value of $92,731,000, are subordinated to approximately
$222,600,000 of senior Certificates which carry a weighted average interest rate
of 7.81%. The Company's mortgage-backed securities have a weighted average
effective yield of approximately 16.65%.

     (v)     On February 5, 1996, the Company sold, through a public offering,
$30,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.75% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures due January 1, 2002. The debentures are convertible at any time prior
to maturity into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of
$16.50 per share, subject to adjustments under certain circumstances. Interest
on the debentures is payable semi-annually on January 1 and July 1 each year,
commencing on July 1, 1996. The net proceeds were used to repay borrowings
outstanding under the Company's lines of credit.

     (vi)    During the six-month period ended June 30, 1996, holders of
$1,258,000 in principal amount of 9.75% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due
2004 elected to convert the debentures into 125,800 shares of common stock at
$10.00 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 1996, holders of
$3,069,000 in principal amount of 8.5% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due
2000 elected to convert into 204,598 shares of common stock at $15.00 per share.
In addition, holders of $383,000 in principal amount of 8.5% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures due 2001 elected to convert the debentures into 24,709
shares of common stock at $15.50 per share. The conversions during the six
months ended June 30, 1996 resulted in an additional equity of approximately
$4,570,000, net of unamortized issuance costs of approximately $140,000. There
was approximately $83,000 of non-cash interest expense that was accrued but was
not required to be paid as a result of the conversions of the debentures.

     (vii)   On March 15, 1996, the Company filed a shelf-registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering up to $125,000,000 of debt
and equity securities to be sold from time to time in the future. The
registration statement was declared effective on April 4, 1996.

     (viii)  In 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance of
160,000 shares of restricted stock to certain employees and non-employee
directors pursuant to the Company's Amended and Restated Option Plan. The
restricted shares will vest over seven years, beginning January 1998. Dividends
are payable on the restricted shares to the extent and on the same date as
dividends are paid on all of the Company's common stock.

     (ix)    During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company repurchased
and retired 120,000 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $1,830,800.

             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  (CONTINUED)

           Subsequent to June 30, 1996, the Company invested in additional
mortgage loans totaling $3,000,000. These mortgage loans are secured by, among
other things, two skilled nursing facilities with a total of 173 beds. The loans
have an average initial interest rate of 11.58%, have maturities of 10 and 20
years and provide for increases in the interest rate.

           Subsequent to June 30, 1996, an additional $1,010,000 in principal
amount of 9.75% Convertible Subordinated Debentures converted into 101,000
shares of the Company's common stock. In addition, approximately $50,000 in
principal amount of 8.5% Convertible Subordinated Debentures converted into
3,333 shares of the Company's common stock.

           As of August 1, 1996, the Company had outstanding commitments to
provide mortgage loans totaling approximately $27,912,000 and to acquire 20 
long-term care facilities for an aggregate purchase price of approximately
$50,634,000.

     (x)   A quarterly dividend of $0.34 per share aggregating approximately
$6,355,000 was declared by the Board of Directors payable on July 15, 1996 to
stockholders of record on June 30, 1996. The dividend has been reflected as
distributions payable in the accompanying financial statements as of June 30,
1996.

     (xi)  In 1996, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an increase in
the Company's investment in assisted living facilities ("ALFs") from 10% to 20%
of its adjusted gross real estate investment portfolio (adjusted to include the
mortgage loans to third parties underlying the $92,731,000 investment in
mortgage-backed securities). In addition, the Board of Directors also authorized
an increase in the Company's investment in properties operated by Assisted
Living Concepts, Inc. ("ALC"), an owner, operator and developer of ALFs whose
securities are listed on the American Stock Exchange, from 5% to 10% of its
adjusted gross real estate investment portfolio (which was approximately
$605,356,000 as of June 30, 1996). Currently, two of the Company's executive
officers serve as members of the Board of Directors of ALC. As of August 1,
1996, three executive officers of the Company own approximately 6.5% of ALC's
common stock. As of June 30, 1996, the Company had investments in ALFs and
properties operated by ALC of approximately 7.4% and 4.9%, respectively of the
Company's total adjusted gross real estate investment portfolio.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


OPERATING RESULTS

Six months 1996 Compared to Six months 1995

     During the six-months ended June 30, 1996, cash flow from operating
activities available for distribution or reinvestment was $14,687,000 versus
$12,205,000 for the comparable period in 1995.  Revenues for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 were $25,283,000 versus $16,065,000 for the same period in
1995.  Revenues increased $9,218,000 primarily as a result of increased rental
income of $4,862,000 and increased interest income on mortgage loans of
$3,534,000 attributable to investments of approximately $218,670,000 in long-
term care facilities the Company completed since June 30, 1995.  Revenues also
increased $1,087,000 as a result of interest income from mortgage-backed
securities.  These increases were offset by a decrease in other income of
$265,000.

     Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were $14,211,000
versus $6,148,000 for the same period in 1995.  The increase of $8,063,000 is
due in large part to an increase of $6,072,000 in interest expense.  Interest
expense increased by $3,842,000 due to the issuance of convertible subordinated
debentures in September 1995 and in February 1996.  Interest expense also
increased by $2,150,000 as a result of the bond financing and assumption of
capital leases and mortgage loans by the Company.  The remaining increase of
$836,000 was due to interest on borrowings under the Company's lines of credit
which was offset by a decrease of $756,000 as a result of conversions of the
9.75% Convertible Subordinated Debentures since June 30, 1995.  Depreciation and
amortization expense increased by $1,335,000 primarily due to the acquisition of
43 additional skilled nursing and assisted living facilities in the past year.
Operating and other expenses increased by $384,000 principally due to higher
administrative costs.  The remaining increase in total expenses of $272,000
related to the payments made to the holders of the limited partnership
interests.

Second Quarter 1996 Compared to Second Quarter 1995

     During the three-months ended June 30, 1996, cash flow from operating
activities available for distribution or reinvestment was $7,567,000 versus
$6,345,000 for the comparable period in 1995. Revenues for the three months
ended June 30, 1996 were $12,920,000 versus $8,560,000 for the same period in
1995. Revenues increased $4,360,000 primarily as a result of increased rental
income of $2,803,000, increased interest income on mortgage-backed securities of
$1,407,000 and increased interest income on mortgage loans of $548,000. These
increases were offset by a decrease in other income of $398,000.

     Total expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1996 were $7,303,000
versus $3,361,000 for the same period in 1995. The increase of $3,942,000 is due
in large part to an increase of $2,926,000 in interest expense. Interest expense
increased primarily due to the issuance of convertible subordinated debentures
in September 1995 and in February 1996 and

debt assumed by the Company as previously described. Depreciation and
amortization expense increased by $772,000 primarily due to the acquisition of
additional skilled nursing and assisted living facilities in the past year,
including $95,621,000 invested in owned facilities during 1996. Operating and
other expenses increased by $127,000 principally due to higher administrative
costs. The remaining increase in total expenses of $117,000 related to the
payments made to the holders of the limited partnership interests.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     As of June 30, 1996, the Company's real estate investment portfolio
consisted of approximately $212,890,000 invested in skilled nursing and assisted
living facilities, approximately $137,652,000 invested in mortgage loans and
approximately $92,731,000 invested in mortgage-backed securities.  The Company's
portfolio consists of 252 skilled nursing facilities and 23 assisted living
facilities in 30 states.

     During the six-month period ended June 30, 1996, the Company completed
investments totaling approximately $153,631,000 which consisted of purchases of
34 long-term care facilities for approximately $95,621,000 and mortgage loans
for approximately $58,010,000.  The Company financed its investments through the
sale of $30,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.75% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures in February 1996, the sale of mortgage-backed securities in March
1996, the assumption of non-recourse mortgage loans totaling $9,641,000, the
issuance of $8,932,000 in minority interests, short-term borrowings and cash on
hand.

     The Company has the option to redeem, without penalty, its currently
outstanding $873,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.75% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures at any time.  Since such debentures are convertible into
common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $10.00 per share, the
Company anticipates that substantially all of such debentures will be converted
if it elects to redeem the debentures.

     Subsequent to June 30, 1996, the Company invested in additional mortgage
loans totaling $3,000,000.  These mortgage loans are secured by two skilled
nursing facilities with a total of 173 beds.  The loans have an average initial
interest rate of 11.58%, have maturities of 10 and 20 years and provide for
increases in the interest rate.

     As of August 1, 1996, the Company had outstanding commitments to provide
mortgage loans totaling approximately $27,912,000 and to acquire 20 long-term
care facilities for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $50,634,000.
The Company expects to fund at least $29,587,000 of these commitments by the end
of 1996.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                                  (CONTINUED)

     In May 1996, the terms of the Company's unsecured line of credit were
amended, including certain financial covenants, to increase the amount of the
line from $35,000,000 to $45,000,000 and to extend the expiration date from
December 31, 1996 to May 31, 1998. As of August 1, 1996, the Company had
$56,700,000 borrowings outstanding under its secured and unsecured lines of
credit bearing a weighted average interest rate of approximately 7.18%.

     At August 1, 1996, the Company had approximately $125,000,000 available
under its shelf registration statement for future issuance of capital from time
to time in accordance with then existing market conditions.  In addition, based
on the current level of collateral, there was approximately $40,140,000
available under its lines of credit which will be increased to $72,300,000 when
additional collateral is accepted.

     The Company also anticipates completing a securitization transaction
within the next year, the proceeds of which will be used to repay borrowings
outstanding under its repurchase agreement and its unsecured line of credit.  In
connection with such securitization, the Company, in September 1995, entered
into a seven-year forward interest rate swap agreement (the "September 1995
Agreement"), which effectively locked-in the net interest margin on $60,000,000
principal amount of senior certificates that will be sold.  The September 1995
Agreement will be terminated at the earlier of (i) the completion of the
securitization or (ii) February 28, 1997 and has been accounted for as a hedging
transaction.  As of June 28, 1996, the Company had an unrealized gain of
approximately $1,080,000 on the September 1995 Agreement.

     In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 125 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments  of Liabilities" which will require the Company to classify its
investments in mortgage-backed securities, that contractually can be prepaid, to
be measured like investments in debt securities classified as available-for-sale
under Statement 115.  Adoption of Statement No. 125 is not required until
January 1, 1997 and the effect of adoption cannot be assessed at this time.

     The Company believes that its current cash from operations available for
distribution or reinvestment and its borrowing capacity are sufficient to
provide for payment of its operating costs, provide funds for distribution to
its stockholders and to fund additional investments.

            --------------

or a majority of the Board of Directors may call special meetings of the
Stockholders.  Special meetings of Stockholders shall also be called by the
Secretary upon the written request of the holders of shares entitled to cast not
less than 25% of all the votes entitled to be cast at such meeting.  Such
request shall state the purpose or purposes of such meeting and the matters
proposed to be acted on thereat.  The date, time, place and record date for any

shall be established by the Board of Directors or Officer calling the same.

     1.04.  NOTICE.  Not less than ten (10) nor more than ninety (90) days
            ------                                                        
before the date of every meeting of Stockholders, written or printed notice of
such meeting shall be given, in accordance with Section 8.01, to each
Stockholder entitled to vote or entitled to notice by statute, stating the time
and place of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting or as otherwise
may be required by statute, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is

constitute a quorum; but this Section shall not affect any requirement under any
statute or the Charter of the Corporation (the "Charter") for the vote necessary
for the adoption of any measure.  If, however, a quorum is not present at any
meeting of the Stockholders, the Stockholders present in person or by proxy
shall have the power to adjourn the meeting from time to time without notice
other than announcement at the meeting until a quorum is present and the meeting
so adjourned may be reconvened without further notice.  At any adjourned
meeting at which a quorum is present,

of enough Stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

     1.07.  VOTING.  A majority of the votes cast at a meeting of Stockholders

authorize action upon any matter which may properly come before the meeting,
unless more than a majority of the votes cast is specifically required by
statute, by the Charter or by these Bylaws.  Unless otherwise provided in the
Charter, each outstanding share (a "Share") of capital stock of the Corporation
(the "Stock"), regardless of class, shall be entitled to one vote upon each
matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of Stockholders.  Shares of its own
Stock directly or indirectly owned by this Corporation shall not be voted in any
meeting and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding
Shares entitled to vote at any given time, but Shares of its own Stock held by
it in a fiduciary capacity may be voted and shall be counted in determining the
total number of outstanding Shares at any given time.

     1.08.  PROXIES.  A Stockholder may vote the Shares owned of record by him
            -------

otherwise provided in the proxy.

     1.09.  CONDUCT OF MEETINGS.  The Chairman of the Board (if any) or, in the

            -------------------                                      
Stockholders, the presiding Officer shall be authorized to appoint a Teller for
such meeting.  The Teller may, but need not, be an officer, employee or agent of
the Corporation.  The Teller shall be responsible for tabulating or causing to
be tabulated shares voted at the meeting and reviewing or causing to be reviewed
all proxies.  In tabulating votes, the Teller shall be entitled to rely in whole
or in part on tabulations and analyses made by personnel of the Corporation, its
counsel, its transfer agent, its registrar or such other organizations that are
customarily employed to provide such services.  The Teller shall be authorized
to determine the legality and sufficiency of all votes cast and proxies
delivered under both the Charter and these Bylaws and applicable law.  The
presiding Officer may review all determinations made by the Teller hereunder,
and in doing so the presiding Officer shall be entitled to exercise his or her
sole 

                                       2

judgment and discretion and he or she shall not be bound by any determinations
made by the Teller.

be taken at a meeting of Stockholders may be taken without a meeting if a
consent in writing, setting forth such action, is signed by all the Stockholders

waived in writing any rights which they may have to dissent from such action,
and such consents and waivers are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the
Stockholders.  Such consents and waivers may be signed by different Stockholders
on separate counterparts.

            2.04.3  Nominations of candidates for election as Directors of the
Corporation at any annual meeting of Stockholders may be made (i) by, or at the
direction of, a majority of the Board of Directors or a duly authorized
committee thereof (which committee in the case of any nomination of a director
who is to be an Independent Director shall have a majority of Independent
Directors) or (ii) by any holder of record (both as of the time notice of such
nomination is given by the Stockholder as set forth below and as of the record
date for the annual meeting in question) of any shares of the Corporation's
capital stock entitled to vote at such annual meeting who complies with the
notice procedures of this Section 2.04.  Any Stockholder who seeks to make such
a nomination, or his representative, must be present in person at the annual
meeting.  Only persons nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in
this Section 2.04 shall be eligible for election as Directors at an annual
meeting.

     Nominations, other than those made by, or at the direction of, the Board of
Directors or a duly authorized committee thereto, shall be made pursuant to
timely notice in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation as set forth in
this Section 2.04.  To be timely, a Stockholder's notice shall be delivered to,
or mailed and received at, the principal executive offices of the Corporation
not less than 60 days nor more than 150 days prior to the anniversary of the
last annual meeting of Stockholders.  Each such Stockholder notice shall set

election or reelection as a Director and as to the Stockholder giving the notice
(a) the name, age, business address and residence address of such person, (b)

of shares of the Corporation's capital stock which are beneficially owned by
such person on the date of such Stockholder notice, (d) such nominee's consent
to serve as a Director if elected and (e) any other information relating to such
person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies with respect

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
or her discretion; and (ii) as to the Stockholder giving the notice (a) the name
and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of such Stockholder and
any other Stockholders known by such Stockholder to be supporting such nominees
and (b) the class and number of shares of the Corporation's capital stock which
are beneficially owned by such Stockholder on the date of such Stockholder
notice and by any other Stockholders known by such Stockholder to be supporting
such nominees on the date of such Stockholder notice. At the request of the
Board of Directors or a committee appointed by it, any persons nominated by, or
at the direction of, the Board or such committee for election as a Director at
an annual meeting shall furnish to the Secretary of the Corporation that
information required to be set forth in a Stockholder's notice of nomination
which pertains to the nominee.

            2.04.4 If the Board of Directors, or a designated committee thereof,
determines that any Stockholder nomination was not timely made in accordance
with the terms of this Section 2.04, or the information provided in a
Stockholder's notice does not satisfy the informational requirements of this
Section 2.04 in any material respect, then the Board of Directors or such
committee, as the case may be, shall reject such Stockholder nomination and such
nomination shall not be considered at the annual meeting in question; provided,
                                                                      --------
however, if such Stockholder's notice was duly received at least 15 days in
- -------
advance of the last date on which such notice could have been timely made, then
the Secretary of the corporation shall, within 10 days after the Secretary's
receipt of such notice, notify such Stockholder of the deficiency in the notice.
Such Stockholder receiving such notice from the Secretary shall have an
opportunity to cure the deficiency by providing additional information to the
Secretary within such period of time, not to exceed five days from the date such
deficiency notice is given to the Stockholder, as the Board of Directors or such
committee shall reasonably determine. If the deficiency is not cured within such
period, or if the Board of Directors or such committee reasonably determines
that the additional information provided by the Stockholder, together with
information previously provided, does not satisfy the requirements of this
Section 2.04 in any material respect, then the Board of Directors shall reject
such Stockholder's nomination and such nomination shall not be considered at the
annual meeting in question.

            2.04.5  If neither the Board of Directors nor such committee makes a
determination as to the validity of any nominations by a Stockholder as set
forth above, the Presiding Officer of the annual meeting shall determine and
declare at the annual meeting whether a nomination was made in accordance with
the terms of this Section 2.04.  If the Presiding Officer determines that a
nomination was made in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.04, he shall
so declare at the annual meeting and ballots shall be provided for use at the
meeting with respect to such nominee.  If the Presiding Officer determines that
a nomination was not made in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.04, he
shall so declare at the annual meeting and such nomination shall be disregarded.

certificate issued when the Corporation is authorized to issue more than one
class or series of stock shall contain such legend with respect thereto as is

duly effected on the Stock Ledger, the Corporation shall not be affected by any

certificate to be issued in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by
the Corporation alleged to have been stolen, lost or destroyed upon the making
of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate of stock to
be stolen, lost or destroyed.  When authorizing such issue of a new certificate,
the Board of Directors may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to
the issuance thereof, require the owner of such stolen, lost or destroyed

          This Agreement amends and restates the Revolving Credit Agreement

                             -------------------------

Company, the Banks, as defined therein, and the Agent, pursuant to which
Original Credit Agreement the Company requested the Banks to extend credit to
the Company in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding Twenty-Five Million
Dollars ($25,000,000) to finance the acquisition by the Company of Facilities
and Mortgage Loans, to enable the Company to make Mortgage Loans with respect to
Facilities and for general corporate purposes.

Restated Credit Agreement, the aggregate Commitments were increased to Thirty-

          To induce the Banks to extend such credit, the Company, the Banks and
the Agent propose to enter into this Agreement, pursuant to which the Banks
agree to make loans to the Company.

such payment to the Banks for application in such manner as it or the Majority
Banks, subject to Section 4.2, may determine to be appropriate).

Period for each Loan of such Type shall be coterminous; and

          (b) each payment on account of any Obligations to or for the account
of one or more of the Banks in respect of any Obligations due on a particular

days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in
the period for which payable) and interest payable at the Base Rate shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the
actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last
day) occurring in the period for which payable.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,

prepayments of or into Loans of different Types or, in the case of Eurodollar
Loans, having different Interest Periods at the same time to be deemed separate
borrowings, Conversions and prepayments for purposes of the foregoing, one for
each Type or Interest Period).  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, the aggregate principal amount of Eurodollar Loans of each Type
having the same Interest Period shall be in an amount  at least equal to

in this Section 4.5, such Loan (if outstanding as a Eurodollar Loan) will be

the Payor is to make payment to the Agent of (in the case of a Bank) the
proceeds of a Loan to be made by such Bank under this Agreement or (in the case
of the Company) a payment to the Agent for the account of one or more of the
Banks (the "Required Payment"), which notice shall be effective upon receipt,
            ----------------                                                 
that the Payor does not intend to make the Required Payment to the Agent, the
Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance
upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount of such
payment available to the intended recipient on such date; and, if the Payor has
not in fact made the Required Payment to the Agent, the recipient or recipients
of such payment shall, on demand, repay to the Agent the amount so made
available together with interest on such amount in respect of each day during
the period commencing on the date (the "Advance Date") such amount was so made
                                        ------------                          
available by the Agent until the date the Agent recovers such amount at a rate
per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate for such day and, if such recipient or
recipients shall fail promptly to make such payment, the Agent shall be entitled
to recover such amount, on demand, from the Payor, together with interest as set
forth above; provided that if neither the recipient or recipients nor the Payor
             --------                                                          
shall return the Required Payment to the Agent within three Business Days of the
Advance Date, then, retroactively to the Advance Date, the Payor and the
recipient or recipients shall each be obligated to pay interest on the Required
Payment as follows:

          (a)  if the Required Payment shall represent a payment to be made by
the Company to the Banks, the Company and the recipient or recipients shall each
be obligated retroactively to 

                                    - 33 -
<PAGE>
 
the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment at the Post-
Default Rate (and, in case the recipient or recipients shall return the Required
Payment to the Agent, without limiting the obligation of the Company under
Section 3.2 to pay interest to such recipient or recipients at the Post-Default
- -----------
Rate in respect of the Required Payment) and

          (b)  if the Required Payment shall represent proceeds of a Loan to be
made by the Banks to the Company, the Payor shall be obligated retroactively to
the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment at the rate
of interest provided for such Required Payment pursuant to Section 3.2.

          4.7  Sharing of Payments, Etc.
               -------------------------

          (a)  The Company agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation
of) any right of set-off, banker's Lien or counterclaim a Bank may otherwise
have, each Bank shall be entitled, at its option but only with the prior written
consent of the Majority Banks or the Agent, to offset balances held by it for
the account of the Company at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other
currency, against any Obligations of the Company to such Bank that are not paid
when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to the Company).  Any
Bank so entitled shall promptly notify the Company and the Agent of any offset
effected by it; provided that such Bank's failure to give such notice shall not
                --------                                                       
affect the validity of such offset.

          (b)  If any Bank shall obtain from the Company payment of any
Obligation through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker's Lien or
counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from the Agent as
provided in this Agreement), and, as a result of such payment, such Bank shall
have received a greater amount of the Obligations than the amount allocable to
such Bank under Section 4.2, it shall promptly purchase from such other Banks
                -----------                                                  
participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Bank, direct
interests in) such Obligations owing to such other Banks in such amounts, and
make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end
that all the Banks shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any
expenses that may be incurred by such Bank in obtaining or preserving such
excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid Obligations owing to each
of the Banks.  To such end all the Banks shall make appropriate adjustments
among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such
payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.

          (c)  The Company agrees that any Bank so purchasing such a
participation (or direct interest) may exercise all rights of set-off, banker's
Lien, counterclaim or similar rights with 

                                    - 34 -
<PAGE>
 
respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were a direct holder of
Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Bank in the amount of
such participation.

          (d)  Nothing contained in this Section 4.7 shall require any Bank to
                                         -----------                          
exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Bank to exercise, and
retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other
indebtedness or obligation of the Company.  If, under any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar law, any Bank receives a secured claim in lieu of a
set-off to which this Section 4.7 applies, such Bank shall, to the extent
                      -----------                                        
practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner
consistent with the rights of the Banks entitled under this Section 4.7 to share
                                                            -----------         
in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

demand such amounts as such Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate
such Bank for any costs that such Bank determines are attributable to its making
or maintaining of any Eurodollar Loans or its obligation to make any Eurodollar
Loans, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Bank in respect of any
of such Loans or such obligation (collectively, "Additional Costs"), resulting

               (i)  changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such
     Bank under this Agreement or its Notes in respect of any of such Loans
     (other than changes in the rate of taxation imposed on or measured by the
     overall net income of such Bank or of its Applicable Lending Office for any
     of such Loans by the jurisdiction in which such Bank has its principal
     office or such Applicable Lending Office); or

              (ii)  imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar
     requirements (other than the Reserve Requirement utilized in the
     determination of the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan) relating to any
     extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other
     liabilities of, such Bank (including any of such Loans or any deposits
     referred to in the definition of "Eurodollar Base Rate" in Section 1.1), or
                                                                -----------

     Notes (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities) or its
     Commitments.

If any Bank requests compensation from the Company under this Section 5.1(a),
                                                              -------------- 
the Company may, by notice to such Bank (with a copy to the Agent), suspend the
obligation of such Bank thereafter to make or to Continue Loans of the Type with
respect to which such compensation is requested, or to Convert Loans of any
other Type into Loans of such Type, until the Regulatory Change giving rise to
such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 5.4
                                                                     -----------

          (b)  Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of this
Section 5.1, in the event that, by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Bank

a specified level of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Bank
that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on Eurodollar
Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or of a category of extensions
of credit or other assets of such Bank that includes Eurodollar Loans or (ii)
becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities
or assets that it may hold, then, if such Bank so elects by notice to the
Company (with a copy to the Agent), the obligation of such Bank to make or
Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, Loans of such Type shall
be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case
the provisions of Section 5.4 shall be applicable).

necessary to compensate such Bank (or, without duplication, the bank holding
company of which such Bank is a subsidiary) for any costs that it determines are
attributable to the maintenance by such Bank (or any Applicable Lending Office
or such bank holding company), pursuant to any Governmental Rule following any
Regulatory Change of capital in respect of its Commitments or Loans (such
compensation to include an amount equal to any reduction of the rate of return

Governmental Rule.

the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation by an amount determined
by such Bank to be material and will not, in the sole opinion of such Bank, be
disadvantageous to such Bank, except that such Bank shall have no obligation to
designate an Applicable Lending Office located in the United States of America.

Loans of the Affected Type, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect
to such Conversions, all Loans held by the Banks holding Loans of the Affected
Type and by such Bank are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and
Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan that would
have commenced on the date specified for such borrowing) at the applicable rate
of interest for such Loan provided for in this Agreement over (ii) the amount of
interest that otherwise would have accrued on such principal amount at a rate

     Eligible Mortgage Loan; and

          (oo)  such Eligible Mortgage Loan would be eligible to be a "qualified

it has, independently and without reliance on the Agent or any other Bank, and

any time by notice to the Banks and the Company and the Agent may be removed at
any time with or without cause by the Majority Banks.  Upon any such resignation

Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
remedies, powers, privileges, duties and obligations of the retiring Agent, and
the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations, under
the Basic Documents. After any retiring Agent's resignation or removal as Agent,
the provisions of this Section 10 shall continue in effect for its benefit in

permitted assigns.

          11.6   Assignments and Participations.
                 ------------------------------  

          (a)  The Company may not assign any of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement or under the Notes without the prior consent of all of the Banks
and the Agent.

          (b)  Each Bank may assign all or any part of its Loans, its Notes and
its Commitments (but only with the consent of the Agent, which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld), together with, in any such case, its related rights,
remedies, powers and privileges under the Basic Documents; provided that (i) any
                                                           --------             
such partial assignment shall be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000; and
(ii) each such assignment by a Bank of its Loans, Note or Commitment shall be
made in such manner so that the same portion of its Loans, Note and Commitment
is assigned to the respective assignee. Upon execution and delivery by the
assignee to the Company and the Agent of an instrument in writing pursuant to
which such assignee agrees to become a "Bank" under this Agreement (if not
already a Bank) having the Commitment or Commitments and Loans specified in such
instrument, and upon the consent of the Agent, which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld, to the extent required above, the assignee shall have,
to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided in such assignment
with the consent of the Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld), the obligations, rights and benefits of a Bank under the Basic
Documents holding the Commitment or Commitments and Loans assigned to it (in
addition to the Commitment or Commitments and Loans, if any, theretofore held by
such assignee) and the assigning Bank shall, to the extent of such assignment,
be released from the Commitment or Commitments so assigned. Upon each such
assignment the assigning Bank shall pay the Agent an assignment fee of $2,000.

          (c)  A Bank may sell or agree to sell to one or more other Persons a
participation in all or any part of its Loans, its Notes, its Commitments and
its related rights, remedies, powers and privileges under the Basic Documents
(but only with the consent of the Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld), in which event each purchaser of a participation (a "Participant")
                                                                -----------  
shall be entitled to the rights and benefits of the provisions of Section 8.1(i)
                                                                  --------------
with respect to such 

                                    - 85 -
<PAGE>
 
participation as if (and the Company shall be directly obligated to such
Participant under such provisions as if) such Participant were a "Bank" for
purposes of Section 8.1(i), but, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.7(c),
            --------------                                       --------------
shall not have any other rights, remedies, powers or privileges under any Basic
Document (the Participant's rights against such Bank in respect of such
participation to be those set forth in the agreements executed by such Bank in
favor of the Participant). All amounts payable by the Company to any Bank under
Section 5 in respect of such Bank's Loans, Notes and Commitments shall be
- ---------
determined as if such Bank had not sold or agreed to sell any participations in
such Loans, Notes and Commitments, and as if such Bank were funding each of such
Loans, Note and Commitments in the same way that it is funding the portion of
such Loans, Note and Commitments in which no participations have been sold. In
no event shall a Bank that sells a participation agree with the Participant to
take or to refrain from taking any action under any Basic Document except that
such Bank may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent
of the Participant, agree to (i) increase or to extend the term, or to extend
the time or to waive any requirement for the reduction or termination, of such
Bank's related Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of
principal of or interest on the related Loan or Loans or any portion of any fee
under this Agreement payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce the amount of any
such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest or any fee
under this Agreement in which such Bank has sold an interest is payable to the
Participant, to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to
receive such interest or fee under its agreements with such Bank, (v) alter the
rights or obligations of the Company to prepay the related Loans or (vi) consent
to any modification, supplement or waiver of any Basic Document to the extent
that the same, under Section 11.4, requires the consent of each Bank.
                     ------------

          (d)  In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under
the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.6, any Bank may assign and pledge
                                 ------------                                
all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as
collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any Operating Circular issued
by such Federal Reserve Bank.  No such assignment shall release the assigning
Bank from its obligations under the Basic Documents.

          (e)  A Bank may furnish any information concerning the Company or any
of its respective Subsidiaries in the possession of such Bank from time to time
to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and
participants).

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.6 to the contrary, no Bank may
                                 ------------                             
assign or participate any interest in any Obligation or 

                                    - 86 -
<PAGE>
 
Commitment (or any related rights, remedies, powers or privileges) to the
Company or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior written
consent of each Bank.

          11.7   Survival.  The obligations of the Company under Sections 5.1,
                 --------                                        -------------
5.5, 5.6 and 11.3 and the obligations of the Banks under Section 10.5 shall
- -----------------                                        ------------      
survive the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.
In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a
notice of any extension of credit, in or pursuant to any Basic Document shall
survive the making or deemed making of such representation and warranty, and no
Bank shall be deemed to have waived, by reason of making any extension of
credit, any Default which may arise by reason of such representation or warranty
proving to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that such Bank or the
Agent may have had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such
representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time such extension of
credit was made.

          11.8   Agreements Superseded.  This Agreement supersedes all prior
                 ---------------------

jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement
or the Notes, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction
shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

ERNST & YOUNG LLP

Los Angeles, California 90071

Attention:  Mr. Alex Chavez
            Manager/Audit Healthcare, 17th Floor

          Re: LTC PROPERTIES, INC.
              --------------------

Dear Sirs:

          This Letter ("Letter of Understanding") is being sent to ERNST & YOUNG
LLP ("CPA") with respect to a credit accommodation that SANWA BANK CALIFORNIA
("Bank") on its own behalf and as agent for certain other financial institutions
(collectively, the "Lenders") has granted to LTC PROPERTIES, INC. ("Client
Corp.").

          We wish to confirm that the Bank and the Lenders may use CPA's Audit
Report dated January 15, 1996, except Notes 8 and 9, as to which the date is
February 15, 1996, on the financial statements of Client Corp., as of December
31, 1994 and December 31, 1995 ("Current Audit Report") in connection with the
Bank's and the Lenders' decision to extend a Thirty-Five Million Dollar
($35,000,000) unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit") to Client Corp.

          The Bank and the Lenders may also use CPA's subsequent Audit Reports
on future financial statements of Client Corp. ("Subsequent Audit Reports") in
connection with the Bank's and the Lenders' provision of credit to Client Corp.
so long as there has been no substantial change to the terms of the Credit as
outlined above.  Upon the occurrence of a substantial change, CPA may
communicate in writing to the Bank that the Bank and the Lenders should no
longer use the Current and Subsequent Audit Reports with respect to subsequent
credit decisions relating to Client Corp., in which case Bank and the Lenders
shall no longer have the benefit of this Letter of Understanding with respect to
subsequent credit decisions relating to Client Corp.
<PAGE>
 
          The Bank's and the Lenders' consideration of the Current or Subsequent
Audit Reports may or may not have an impact on the Bank's and the Lenders'
decision whether or not to extend the Credit; nor is the Current Audit Report or
any Subsequent Audit Report a representation of creditworthiness.  The Bank's
and the Lenders' credit decisions will not be based solely on such audited
financial statements, but will also be based on the exercise of reasonable due
diligence with respect to other potentially relevant factors bearing on Client
Corp.'s creditworthiness as the Bank and each individual Lender believes
appropriate.

          Consideration by the Bank and the Lenders of the Current or Subsequent
Audit Reports shall not (a) change CPA's duties to Client Corp. with respect to
the conduct of the audit, (b) change the limitations of the audits as set forth
in the Current or Subsequent Audit Reports, (c) affect the timeliness of the
information contained in the Current or Subsequent Audit Reports and financial
statements, or (d) alter the responsibility of management of Client Corp. for
the financial statements accompanying the Current or Subsequent Audit Reports.

          Events may occur after the period covered by any Current or Subsequent
Audit Report which may have an effect on the financial condition of Client Corp.
and the CPA is not responsible under this Letter of Understanding for knowledge
or disclosure of such events.

          Other than with respect to the right to use Current or Subsequent
Audit Reports as provided in this Letter of Understanding, it should be
understood that through this Letter of Understanding CPA has not undertaken any
contractual obligations to Bank and the Lenders.  For example, CPA has
undertaken no obligation to Bank and the Lenders to issue a report on Client
Corp.'s financial statements now or at any future time or to advise Bank and the
Lenders of any further information CPA learns after issuing a Current or
Subsequent Audit Report.  Nor has CPA undertaken to perform an audit for Bank's
and the Lenders' purposes, nor undertaken for Bank and the Lenders any
procedures for the purposes of verifying such items in Client Corp.'s financial
statements as might be material to Bank and the Lenders' transaction with Client
Corp.

          In addition, because there are inherent limitations involved in any
audit that is intended to express an opinion on the fairness of the presentation
of the financial statements being reported on, an auditors' report is never
intended to be a warranty or guaranty of any sort, but rather is an opinion,
arrived at in accordance with recognized professional standards, whether the
financial statements as a whole present fairly, in all material respects, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting 

                                RELIANCE LETTER
                                ---------------

principles, Client Corp.'s financial position as of the balance sheet date and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended. Credit
decisions are by their nature complex and multifaceted. CPA's audit should not
be taken to supplant the inquiries and procedures that Bank and the Lenders
should undertake for the purpose of satisfying themselves of Client Corp.'s
credit worthiness or ability to comply or compliance with the provisions of the
Credit. Prudent lenders will perform such due diligence investigations as they
believe are appropriate in the circumstances. Bank and the Lenders' needs may
change in the future and CPA is unable to assess how the Current or any
Subsequent Audit Reports that CPA may issue on behalf of Client Corp. will
compare with such needs. Bank and the Lenders should rely on their own prudence
and diligence in connection with the Credit and any transactions thereunder.

          This Letter of Understanding does not authorize the Bank or the
Lenders to use the Current or any Subsequent Audit Report in connection with any
transaction other than the granting of the Credit and transactions thereunder.
The Bank and the Lenders agree to treat the Current and Subsequent Audit Reports
as they do other confidential information and, except as required by law or
regulation, not to disclose any such Audit Report to any other party not
involved in the Credit unless the Audit Report becomes generally available to
the public.

and approved each of the Basic Documents and is fully familiar with the
transaction contemplated by the Basic Documents and that it will in the future
remain fully familiar with such transaction and with any new Basic Documents and
the transactions contemplated by such Basic Documents.  Each Guarantor hereby

or in the future known by the Agent or any Bank.

               (e) Each Guarantor intends that its rights and obligations shall
be those expressly set forth in this Guarantee and that its obligations shall
not be affected, limited, reduced, discharged or terminated by reason of any
principles or provisions of law which conflict with the terms of this Guarantee.

                 --------------------------------------------------          
Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth in
this Guarantee is made voluntarily and unconditionally after consultation with
outside legal counsel and with full knowledge of its significance and
consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense or
right waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which
such or any other Guarantor otherwise may have against the Company, the Agent,
any Bank or any other Person or against any collateral.  If, notwithstanding the
intent of the parties that the terms of this Guarantee shall control in any and
all circumstances, any such waivers or consents are determined to be
unenforceable under applicable law, such waivers and consents shall be effective
to the maximum extent permitted by law.

and termination of the Commitments of the Banks, under the Credit Agreement, any
right, remedy, power or privilege, such as any right of subrogation,
contribution or indemnity or related remedy, power or privilege, arising
(whether by contract or operation of law, including under the Bankruptcy Code)
against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any
part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral for all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations by reason of any payment or other performance pursuant to

Guarantor on account of such rights, remedies, powers or privileges, it shall
hold such amount in trust for the benefit of, and pay the same over to, the
Agent (for the benefit of the Banks) on account of the Guaranteed Obligations.
Each Guarantor understands that the exercise by the Agent or any Bank of any
right, remedy, power or privilege that it may have under the Basic Documents,
any agreement, security document, guarantee or other instrument relative to all
or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise may affect or eliminate
such or any other Guarantor's right of subrogation or similar recovery against

their sole discretion, any combination of such rights, remedies, powers and
privileges.

          2.04  Reinstatement.  The obligations of each Guarantor under this

reason any payment by or on behalf of the Company, any other Guarantor or any
other Person or any other application of funds (including the proceeds of any
collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations) in respect of all
or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise
restored by any holder of such Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of
any proceedings in bankruptcy, reorganization or otherwise and Guarantors
jointly and severally agree that it will indemnify the Agent and each Bank on
demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of
counsel) incurred by the Agent or such Bank in connection with such rescission
or restoration.

          2.05  Remedies.  The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree
                --------

the Credit Agreement and the other Basic Documents may be declared to be
forthwith (or may become automatically) due and payable as provided in Section 9
of the Credit Agreement for purposes of Section 2.01 notwithstanding any stay,
injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations
becoming due and payable as against the Company) and that, in the event of such
declaration (or such obligation being deemed due and payable), such obligations
(whether or not due and payable by the Company) shall forthwith become due and
payable for purposes of Section 2.01.

          2.06  Separate Action.  The Agent may bring and prosecute a separate

action or actions against any Guarantor whether or not any other Guarantor, the
Company, any other guarantor or any other Person is joined in any such action or
a separate action or actions are brought against any other Guarantor, the
Company, any other guarantor, any other Person, or any collateral for all or any
part of the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor under, and
the effectiveness of, this Guarantee are not conditioned upon the existence or
continuation of any other guarantee (including any letter of credit) of all or
any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

          (a) Each Guarantor agrees that any indebtedness of the Company now
or in the future owed to such Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed
Obligations.  If the Agent so requests, any such indebtedness shall be
collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor as trustee for the Agent and
shall be paid over to the Agent (for the benefit of the Banks) in kind on
account of the Guaranteed Obligations.  If, after the Agent's request, such
Guarantor fails to collect or enforce any such indebtedness or to pay the
proceeds of such indebtedness to the Agent, the Agent as such Guarantor's
attorney-in-fact may do such acts and sign such documents in such Guarantor's
name and on such Guarantor's behalf as the Agent considers necessary or
desirable to effect such collection, enforcement or payment, the Agent being
hereby appointed such Guarantor's attorney-in-fact for such purpose.

          (b) Each Guarantor hereby grants to the Agent (for the benefit of
the Banks) a security interest in any indebtedness and in any personal property
of the Company in which such Guarantor now has or in the future acquires any
right, title or interest.  Each Guarantor agrees that such security interest

superior to any right of such Guarantor in such property until the Guaranteed
Obligations have been fully satisfied and performed.

          2.08  Limitation on Guarantee.  In any proceeding involving any state
                -----------------------                                        
corporate law or any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of the
Guarantors under Section 2.01 would otherwise, taking into account the
provisions of Section 2.09, be held or determined to be void, invalid or
unenforceable or if the claims of the Banks in respect of such obligations would
be subordinated to the claims of any other creditors on account of the
Guarantors' liability under Section 2.01, then, notwithstanding any other
provision of this Guarantee to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall,
without any further action by the Guarantors, any Bank, the Agent or any other
Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is
valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as
determined in such action or proceeding.

          2.09  Rights of Contribution.  The Guarantors hereby agree, as
                ----------------------

pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations in excess of the Excess Funding
Guarantor's Pro Rata Share (as defined below) of the Guaranteed Obligations, the
other Guarantors shall, on demand (but subject to the next sentence), pay to the
Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to their respective

Pro Rata Shares of such Excess Funding Guarantor's payment. The payment
obligations of any Guarantor under this Section 2.09 shall be subordinate and
subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full and in cash of the
obligations of such Guarantor under the other provision of this Section 2, and
such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right, remedy, power or
privilege with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of
all such obligations. For the purposes of this Section 2.09, "Pro Rata Shares"
                                                              ---------------
shall mean, for any Guarantor, a percentage equal to the percentage that such
Guarantor's Tangible Net Worth as at March 31, 1996 (as reflected on the balance

addition to (and without any limitation of) any right of set-off, banker's lien
or counterclaim a Bank may otherwise have, each Bank shall be entitled, at its
option but only with the prior written consent of the Majority Banks or the
Agent, to offset balances held by it for the account of any Guarantor at any of
its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any Obligations of the
Company to such Bank that are not paid when due (regardless of whether such
balances are then due to such Guarantor).  Any Bank so entitled shall promptly
notify such Guarantor and the Agent of any offset effected by it, provided that
                                                                  --------

                                          ---------

Properties, Inc. (the "Company"), the lenders identified in the Credit Agreement
                       -------                                                  
(the "Banks") and the Agent provides, subject to its terms and conditions, for
      -----                                                                   
certain extensions of credit to the Company.  It is a condition to the
obligations of the Agent and the Banks under the Credit Agreement that each

used in this Guarantee that are defined in the Credit Agreement (including those
terms incorporated by reference) shall have the respective meanings assigned to
them in the Credit Agreement.  In addition, the following terms shall have the
following meanings under this Guarantee:

Documents" in the Credit Agreement and shall also mean any other agreement (oral
or written), instrument, document or book entry evidencing, creating, securing
or otherwise relating to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations referred

          "Guaranteed Obligations" shall mean (a) any and all Obligations and
           ----------------------

agreements, covenants and undertakings

                                      -1-

under or in respect of the Basic Documents referred to in the Credit Agreement,
it being acknowledged by each Guarantor that extensions of credit under the
Credit Agreement are available on a revolving basis, and (b) any and all other
obligations of the Company for the payment of all amounts, liabilities and
indebtedness (whether for principal, interest, reimbursement, fees, charge,
indemnification or otherwise) now or in the future owed to the Agent, the Banks
or any such Person individually, and for the performance by the Company of its
agreements, covenants and undertakings, under or in respect of any and all the
Basic Documents, it being acknowledged by each Guarantor that such other
obligations may arise or be created, incurred or assumed at any time and from
time to time and in such manner and such circumstances and with such terms and
provisions as the Company and the Agent and the Banks or any such Person
individually may agree without notice or demand of any kind or nature whatsoever
to any Guarantor.

          1.02  Interpretation.  In this Guarantee, unless otherwise indicated,
                --------------                                                 
the singular includes the plural and plural the singular; words importing any
gender include the other gender; references to statutes or regulations are to be
construed as including all statutory or regulatory provisions consolidating,
amending or replacing the statute or regulation referred to; references to
"writing" include printing, typing, lithography and other means of reproducing

          Section 2.  The Guarantee
                      -------------

          2.01  Guarantee.  Subject to the limitation set forth in Section 2.08,
                ---------                                                       
the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantee to each Bank and the Agent
the timely payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration
or otherwise) and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations in each case
strictly in accordance with their terms.  The Guarantors hereby further jointly
and severally agree that if the Company shall fail to pay in full when due
(whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) all or any part of
the Guaranteed

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
 
Obligations, the Guarantors will immediately pay the same, without any demand or
notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or
renewal of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be
timely paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.  This
Guarantee is irrevocable and unconditional in nature and is made with respect to
any Guaranteed Obligations now existing or in the future arising.  The
Guarantors' liability under this Guarantee shall continue until full
satisfaction of all Guaranteed Obligations.  This Guarantee is a guarantee of
due and punctual payment and performance and is not merely a guarantee of
collection.

          2.02  Acknowledgements, Waivers and Consents.  Each Guarantor
                --------------------------------------

obligations of such Guarantor are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under
any and all circumstances.  In full recognition and in furtherance of the
foregoing, each Guarantor agrees that:

this Guarantee in accordance with its terms and without affecting, limiting,
reducing, discharging or terminating the liability of such Guarantor, or the

Guarantee, the Agent and the Banks may, at any time and from time to time and
without notice or demand of any kind or nature whatsoever:

                    (i) amend, supplement, modify, extend, renew, waive,

Guaranteed Obligations);

other instrument or any term or provision of the foregoing;

                    (iii) accept or enter into new or additional agreements,
security documents, guarantees (including letters of credit) or other
instruments in addition to, in exchange for or relative to any Basic Document,

result of the exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege or otherwise);

                    (v) accept, receive and hold any additional collateral for

other Guarantor);

any collateral provided by any Person and exercise the rights, remedies, powers
and privileges of the Agent and the Banks under the Basic Documents or otherwise
in such order and such manner as the Agent or any Bank may, in its discretion,
determine, without any necessity to proceed upon or against or exhaust any
collateral, right, remedy, power or privilege before proceeding to call upon or
otherwise enforce this Guarantee as to any Guarantor;

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
 
                    (xii) foreclose upon any deed of trust, mortgage or other

any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and apply the
proceeds of such receivership as the Agent or any Bank may in its discretion

at its option);

                    (xiv) enter into such other transactions or business
dealings with any other Guarantor, the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate of

                (b) The enforceability and effectiveness of this Guarantee and
the liability of the Guarantors, and the rights, remedies, powers and privileges
of the Agent and the Banks, under this Guarantee shall not be affected, limited,
reduced, discharged or terminated, and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives to
the fullest extent permitted by law any defense now or in the future arising, by
reason of:

                    (i) the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of all or
any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, any Basic Document or any agreement,
security document, guarantee or other instrument relative to all or any part of
the Guaranteed Obligations;

                    (ii) any disability or other defense with respect to all of
any part of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Company, any other Guarantor or
any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (including
any issuer of any letters of credit), including the effect of any statute of
limitations that may bar the enforcement of all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations or the obligations of any such other guarantor;

                    (iii) the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any
security or guarantee (including any letter of credit) for all or any part of
the Guaranteed Obligations or the

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
 
lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of the priority of any
lien on any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

                    (iv) the cessation, for any cause whatsoever, of the
liability of the Company, any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or
any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than, subject to Section 2.05, by
reason of the full payment and performance of all Guaranteed Obligations);

                    (v) any failure of the Agent or any Bank to marshal assets
in favor of the Company or any other Person (including any other Guarantor), to
exhaust any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, to
pursue or exhaust any right, remedy, power or privilege it may have against any
other Guarantor, the Company, any other guarantor of all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations (including any issuer of any letter of credit) or any
other Person or to take any action whatsoever to mitigate or reduce such or any
other Guarantor's liability under this Guarantee, neither the Agent nor any Bank
being under any obligation to take any such action notwithstanding the fact that
all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations may be due and payable and that
the Company may be in default of its obligations under any Basic Document;

                    (vi) any failure of the Agent or any Bank to give notice of
sale or other disposition of any collateral (including any notice of any
judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale of any interest in real property
serving as collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations) for all
or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Company, any Guarantor or any
other Person or any defect in, or any failure by any Guarantor or any other
Person to receive, any notice that may be given in connection with any sale or
disposition of any collateral;

                    (vii) any failure of the Agent or any Bank to comply with
applicable laws in connection with the sale or other disposition of any
collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

                    (viii) any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale of,
or other election of remedies with respect to, any interest in real property or
other collateral serving as security for all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations, even though such foreclosure, sale or election of remedies may
impair the subrogation rights of any Guarantor or may preclude any Guarantor
from obtaining reimbursement, contribution, indemnification or other recovery
from any other Guarantor, the Company, any other guarantor or any other Person
and even though the Company may

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
 
not, as a result of such foreclosure, sale or election of remedies, be liable
for any deficiency;

                    (ix) any benefits the Company, any Guarantor or any other
guarantor may otherwise derive from Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the

statutes of limitation and any and all laws providing for the exemption of

maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

                (d) Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Agent and the
Banks that it has established adequate means of obtaining financial and other
information pertaining to the business, operations and condition (financial and
otherwise) of the Company and its properties on a continuing basis and that such
Guarantor is now and will in the future remain fully familiar with the business,
operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of the Company and its
properties. Each Guarantor further represents and warrants that it has reviewed
and approved each of the Basic Documents and is fully familiar with the
transaction contemplated by the Basic Documents and that it will in the future
remain fully familiar with such transaction and

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
with any new Basic Documents and the transactions contemplated by such Basic
Documents.  Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on
the part of the Agent or the Banks (should any such duty exist) to disclose to
such or any other Guarantor any matter of fact or other information related to
the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company or
its properties or to any Basic Document or the transactions undertaken pursuant
to, or contemplated by, any such Basic Document, whether now or in the future
known by the Agent or any Bank.

                (e) Each Guarantor intends that its rights and obligations shall
be those expressly set forth in this Guarantee and that its obligations shall
not be affected, limited, reduced, discharged or terminated by reason of any
principles or provisions of law which conflict with the terms of this Guarantee.

          2.03  Understanding With Respect to Waivers and Consents.  Each
                --------------------------------------------------       
Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth in
this Guarantee is made voluntarily and unconditionally after consultation with
outside legal counsel and with full knowledge of its significance and
consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense or
right waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which
such or any other Guarantor otherwise may have against the Company, the Agent,
any Bank or any other Person or against any collateral.  If, notwithstanding the
intent of the parties that the terms of this Guarantee shall control in any and
all circumstances, any such waivers or consents are determined to be
unenforceable under applicable law, such waivers and consents shall be effective
to the maximum extent permitted by law.

          2.04  Subrogation.  Each Guarantor hereby waives, until the payment
                -----------                                                  
and satisfaction in full of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration
and termination of the Commitments of the Banks, under the Credit Agreement, any
right, remedy, power or privilege, such as any right of subrogation,
contribution or indemnity or related remedy, power or privilege, arising
(whether by contract or operation of law, including under the Bankruptcy Code)
against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any
part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral for all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations by reason of any payment or other performance pursuant to
the provisions of this Guarantee and, if any amount shall be paid to such
Guarantor on account of such rights, remedies, powers or privileges, it shall
hold such amount in trust for the benefit of, and pay the same over to, the
Agent (for the benefit of the Banks) on account of the Guaranteed

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
 
Obligations.  Each Guarantor understands that the exercise by the Agent or any
Bank of any right, remedy, power or privilege that it may have under the Basic
Documents, any agreement, security document, guarantee or other instrument
relative to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise may
affect or eliminate such or any other Guarantor's right of subrogation or
similar recovery against the Company, any other Guarantor, any other guarantors
or any collateral and that such and the other Guarantors may therefore incur
partially or totally nonreimbursable liability under this Guarantee.
Nevertheless, each Guarantor hereby authorizes and empowers the Agent and the
Banks to exercise, in its or their sole discretion, any combination of such
rights, remedies, powers and privileges.

          2.04  Reinstatement.  The obligations of each Guarantor under this
                -------------                                               
Guarantee shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any
reason any payment by or on behalf of the Company, any other Guarantor or any
other Person or any other application of funds (including the proceeds of any
collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations) in respect of all
or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise
restored by any holder of such Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of
any proceedings in bankruptcy, reorganization or otherwise and Guarantors
jointly and severally agree that it will indemnify the Agent and each Bank on
demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of
counsel) incurred by the Agent or such Bank in connection with such rescission
or restoration.

          2.05  Remedies.  The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree
                --------                                                    
that, between each of them and the Banks, the obligations of the Company under
the Credit Agreement and the other Basic Documents may be declared to be
forthwith (or may become automatically) due and payable as provided in Section 9
of the Credit Agreement for purposes of Section 2.01 notwithstanding any stay,
injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations
becoming due and payable as against the Company) and that, in the event of such
declaration (or such obligation being deemed due and payable), such obligations
(whether or not due and payable by the Company) shall forthwith become due and
payable for purposes of Section 2.01.

          2.06  Separate Action.  The Agent may bring and prosecute a separate
                ---------------

Company, any other guarantor or any other Person is joined in any such action or
a separate action or actions are brought against any other Guarantor, the
Company, any other guarantor, any other Person, or any collateral for all or any
part of the Guaranteed Obligations.  The obligations of each Guarantor under,

other guarantee (including any letter of credit) of all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations.

          2.07  Subordination of Indebtedness of the Company; Security Interest.
                --------------------------------------------------------------- 

                (a) Each Guarantor agrees that any indebtedness of the Company
now or in the future owed to such Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the
Guaranteed Obligations. If the Agent so requests, any such indebtedness shall be
collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor as trustee for the Agent and
shall be paid over to the Agent (for the benefit of the Banks) in kind on
account of the Guaranteed Obligations. If, after the Agent's request, such
Guarantor fails to collect or enforce any such indebtedness or to pay the
proceeds of such indebtedness to the Agent, the Agent as such Guarantor's
attorney-in-fact may do such acts and sign such documents in such Guarantor's
name and on such Guarantor's behalf as the Agent considers necessary or
desirable to effect such collection, enforcement or payment, the Agent being
hereby appointed such Guarantor's attorney-in-fact for such purpose.

                (b) Each Guarantor hereby grants to the Agent (for the benefit
of the Banks) a security interest in any indebtedness and in any personal
property of the Company in which such Guarantor now has or in the future
acquires any right, title or interest. Each Guarantor agrees that such security
interest shall be additional security for the Guaranteed Obligations and shall
be superior to any right of such Guarantor in such property until the Guaranteed
Obligations have been fully satisfied and performed.


          2.08  Limitation on Guarantee.  In any proceeding involving any state
                -----------------------                                        
corporate law or any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of the
Guarantors under Section 2.01 would otherwise, taking into account the
provisions of Section 2.09, be held or determined to be void, invalid or
unenforceable or if the claims of the Banks in respect of such obligations would
be subordinated to the claims of any other creditors on account of the
Guarantors' liability under Section 2.01, then, notwithstanding any other
provision of this Guarantee to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall,
without any further action by the Guarantors, any Bank, the Agent or any other
Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is
valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as
determined in such action or proceeding.

                ----------------------                                          
themselves, that if any Guarantor (an "Excess Funding Guarantor") shall pay a
                                       ------------------------              
portion of the Guaranteed Obligations in excess of the Excess Funding
Guarantor's Pro Rata Share (as defined below) of the Guaranteed Obligations, the
other Guarantors shall, on demand (but subject to the next sentence), pay to the
Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to their respective Pro Rata Shares of
such Excess Funding Guarantor's payment.  The payment obligations of any
Guarantor under this Section 2.09 shall be subordinate and subject in right of
payment to the prior payment in full and in cash of the obligations of such
Guarantor under the other provision of this Section 2, and such Excess Funding
Guarantor shall not exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect
to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all such obligations.
For the purposes of this Section 2.09, "Pro Rata Shares" shall mean, for any
                                        ---------------                     
Guarantor, a percentage equal to the percentage that such Guarantor's Tangible
Net Worth as at March 31, 1996 (as reflected on the balance sheet as at that

of the Guarantors as so reflected as at such date.

Guarantor hereby waives all right of revocation with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations.

          2.11   Right to Offset Balances.  Each Guarantor agrees that, in
                 ------------------------                                 
addition to (and without any limitation of) any right of set-off, banker's lien
or counterclaim a Bank may otherwise have, each Bank shall be entitled, at its
option but only with the prior written consent of the Majority Banks or the
Agent, to offset balances held by it for the account of any Guarantor at any of
its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any Obligations of the
Company to such Bank that are not paid when due (regardless of whether such
balances are then due to such Guarantor).  Any Bank so entitled shall promptly
notify such Guarantor and the Agent of any offset effected by it, provided that
                                                                  --------     
such Bank's failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
offset.

or compliance with the terms and provisions of this Guarantee will conflict with
or result in a breach of, or require any consent under, the corporate charter or
