ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
On August 21, 1997, Sun Healthcare Group, Inc. ("Sun") entered into an
amendment (the "RCA Amendment") to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and
Reorganization, dated as of February 17, 1997, as amended by Amendment No. 1
thereto dated as of May 27, 1997 (as amended, the "RCA Merger Agreement"), by
and among Sun, Retirement Care Associates, Inc., a Colorado corporation
("RCA") and Peach Acquisition Corporation, a Colorado corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun ("RCA Merger Sub"), pursuant to which RCA
Merger Agreement RCA Merger Sub will be merged (the "RCA Merger") with and
into RCA.
The RCA Amendment changes the exchange ratio provided for in the RCA
Merger Agreement such that RCA shareholders will now receive 0.520 shares
instead of 0.68265 shares of Sun common stock for each share of RCA common
stock owned by them on the effective date of the RCA Merger. The RCA
Amendment also (i) contains certain provisions requiring RCA to revise and
restate its fiscal 1997 financial statements for the quarters ended September
30, 1996, December 31, 1996, and March 31, 1997; (ii) waives certain
representations and warranties which have become incorrect since the date of
the RCA Merger Agreement and quantifies the materiality threshold for RCA's
representations and warranties; (iii) contains certain provisions related to
the resignation of Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. as RCA's independent auditors;
(iv) amends the provisions indemnifying RCA's directors and officers; and (v)
extends the date after which either party may freely terminate the RCA Merger
Agreement from September 30, 1997 to November 30, 1997 (or, under certain
circumstances, to December 31, 1997).
On August 21, 1997, Sun also entered into an amendment (the "Contour
Amendment" and, together with the RCA Amendment, the "Amendments") to the
Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of February 17,
1997 (the "Contour Merger Agreement"), by and among Sun, Contour Medical,
Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Contour") and Nectarine Acquisition Corporation,
a Nevada corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun ("Contour Merger
Sub"), pursuant to which Contour Merger Agreement Contour Merger Sub will be
merged (the "Contour Merger" and, together with the RCA Merger, the
"Mergers") with and into Contour. The Contour Amendment contains certain
provisions related to the resignation of Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. as Contour's
independent auditors and extends the date after which either party may freely
terminate the Contour Merger Agreement from September 30, 1997 to November
30, 1997 (or, under certain circumstances, to December 31, 1997).
The Mergers are subject to approval by the shareholders of both companies
and will be considered at separate meetings now anticipated to occur in the
fourth quarter of 1997. The Mergers remain subject to other customary
conditions. The Mergers will be effective promptly following shareholder
approval, assuming satisfaction of the other conditions to the Mergers.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of the Amendments, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2
and are incorporated herein by reference.

<PAGE>
"SECTION 7.04. DIRECTORS' AND OFFICERS' INDEMNIFICATION. (a) The
articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall
contain the provisions with respect to indemnification that are set forth,
as of the date of this Agreement, in the articles of incorporation and
bylaws of the Company, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or
otherwise modified for a period of six years from the Effective Time in any
manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who
at or at any time prior to the Effective Time were directors or officers of
the Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Surviving Corporation may amend or
otherwise modify the provisions with respect to indemnification that are
set forth in its articles of incorporation and bylaws to exclude any right
to indemnification thereunder with respect to any civil or criminal
penalties, damages, fines, disgorgement or other similar personal
liabilities, or any injunctions or consent decrees, incurred, imposed or
entered into in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or
investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative,
brought or assessed by any Governmental Entity or any settlement thereof
("EXCLUDED ITEMS").
(b) From and after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving
Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former
director and officer of the Company (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTIES"), against
(i) any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) and (ii)
judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, but excluding
from this clause (ii) Excluded Items (collectively, "COSTS"), incurred in
connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or
pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective
Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time,
to the extent permitted under the articles of incorporation and bylaws of
the Company or Parent (each as in effect on the Effective Date).
(c) If any Indemnified Party shall seek indemnification pursuant to
this Section 7.04, such Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to
Parent and the Surviving Corporation, stating the amount of the Costs, if
known, and method of computation thereof. The obligations and liabilities
of Parent and the Surviving Corporation under this Section 7.04 with
respect to Costs arising from any claims, actions, suits, proceedings or
investigations of any third party, including any Governmental Entity, which
are subject to the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.04
("THIRD PARTY CLAIMS") shall be governed by and contingent upon the
following additional terms and conditions: if an Indemnified Party shall
receive notice of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give
Parent and the Surviving Corporation notice of such Third Party Claim
within 10 days of the receipt by the Indemnified Party of such notice;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure to provide such notice shall not
release Parent and the Surviving Corporation from any of its obligations
under this Section 7.04 except to the extent Parent and the Surviving
Corporation are materially prejudiced by such failure. Upon receipt of
notice from an Indemnified Party as provided in this Section 7.04(c),
5
<PAGE>
Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to assume and
control the defense of such Third Party Claim at their expense and through
counsel of their choice if they give notice of their intention to do so to
the Indemnified Party within 30 days of the receipt of such notice from the
Indemnified Party. In the event that any Indemnified Party shall seek
indemnification as provided herein, the Indemnified Party shall make
available to Parent and the Surviving Corporation, at Parent's and the
Surviving Corporation's expense, all witnesses, pertinent records,
materials and information in the Indemnified Party's possession or under
the Indemnified Party's control relating thereto as is reasonably required
by Parent and the Surviving Corporation;
(d) Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 7.04 to the
contrary, (i) if there exists a conflict of interest that would make it
inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Party
and Parent and the Surviving Corporation in connection with any Third Party
Claim (other than an Excluded Item), then the Indemnified Party shall be
entitled to retain its own counsel that is reasonably satisfactory to
Parent and the Surviving Corporation at the expense of Parent and the
Surviving Corporation, (ii) if there exists or is reasonably likely to
exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the
judgment of the Indemnified Party for the same counsel to represent both
the Indemnified Party and Parent and the Surviving Corporation in
connection with any Excluded Item, then the Indemnified Party shall be
entitled to retain its own counsel at its own expense, and (iii) if there
exists or is reasonably likely to exist a conflict of interest that would
make it inappropriate in the judgment of the counsel selected by Parent to
defend an Excluded Item for the same counsel to represent both the
Indemnified Party and Parent and the Surviving Corporation in connection
with such Excluded Item, then the Indemnified Party shall retain its own
counsel at its own expense."
(k) Section 9.01(b) of the Merger Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:
"(b) by either Parent or the Company, if the Effective Time shall not
have occurred on or before November 30, 1997; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in
the event that the Effective Time has not occurred by such time (i) due to
the failure to satisfy the condition specified in Section 8.01(b), and as
of such time (A) the condition specified in Section 8.01(a) shall have been
satisfied, (B) neither the Company Stockholders' Meeting nor, if
applicable, the Parent Stockholders' Meeting, shall have been held, and
(C) neither Parent nor the Company shall be entitled to terminate this
Agreement under any other paragraph of this Section 9.01, then such date
shall be extended, without any action on the part of any party hereto,
until December 31, 1997; or (ii) solely due to the failure to satisfy the
condition specified in Section 8.01(d) or 8.01(e), then such date may be
extended, at the option of Parent, until December 31, 1997; and PROVIDED,
FURTHER, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section
9.01(b) shall not be available to any party
6
<PAGE>
whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have
caused, or resulted in, the failure of the Effective Time to occur on or
before such date."
(l) Section 9.01(g) of the Merger Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:
"(g) by Parent, upon a breach of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement on the part of the Company set forth in this
Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Company shall have
become untrue, incomplete or incorrect, in either case such that the
conditions set forth in Section 8.03 would not be satisfied (a "TERMINATING
COMPANY BREACH"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such Terminating Company
Breach (i) is curable by the Company through the exercise of its reasonable
efforts within 30 days and for so long as the Company continues to exercise
such reasonable efforts, or (ii) has been disclosed on Schedule I, II or
III to Amendment No. 1 to this Agreement or on Schedule I to Amendment No.
2 to this Agreement, Parent may not terminate this Agreement under this
Section 9.01(g); and PROVIDED FURTHER that the preceding proviso shall not
in any event be deemed to extend any date set forth in paragraph (b) of
this Section 9.01;"
(m) Section 9.01(k) of the Merger Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:
"(k) by the Company, if the Company shall have failed to obtain the
Company Fairness Opinion by the close of business (New York City time) on
August 27, 1997; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Parent may extend such date by up
to ten business days by delivering written notice thereof to the Company;
and PROVIDED, FURTHER that such termination shall not be effective unless
and until the Company shall have paid to Parent an amount equal to all of
Parent's Expenses, as evidenced by reasonable documentation, in an amount
no greater than $750,000, by wire transfer of immediately available funds
to an account designated by Parent; or".
(n) Section 9.01 of the Merger Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting the word "or" immediately preceding clause (k) thereof and adding the
following clause (l) immediately following clause (k) thereof:
"(l) by Parent, if the letter of Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. required by
Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K expresses any material disagreement with
the contents of the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with
the SEC on August 21, 1997."

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. and ATLANTA, Aug. 22 /PRNewswire/ --
RCA announced today that they have amended the terms of their merger
agreement. The principal effect of the amendment is to change the number of
shares of Sun common stock that will be issued for each share of RCA common
stock from 0.68265 to 0.520. The boards of directors of Sun and of RCA have
each approved the merger agreement amendment.
RCA has filed a Form 8-K indicating its intention to revise and restate its
fiscal 1997 financial statements for the quarters ended Sept. 30, 1996, Dec. 31,
1996 and March 31, 1997. The aggregate effect of these adjustments on pretax
income for these three quarters is expected to be approximately $13.5 million.
The Form 8-K also announces the resignation of RCA's independent auditors. Both
companies expect new auditors to be appointed promptly to ensure consummation of
the merger on a timely basis.
Sun originally entered into separate merger agreements with RCA and Contour
Medical, Inc. (Nasdaq SmallCap: CTMI) on Feb. 17, 1997. RCA also owns
approximately 65 percent of the outstanding shares of Contour. There has been no
change in the financial terms of the Contour merger agreement, which provides
for the payment of cash and/or stock consideration with a value of $8.50 for
each share of Contour common stock. Sun's merger agreement with Contour has been
amended primarily to match the RCA amendment in extending the date after which
either party may freely terminate the agreement from Sept. 30, 1997 to Nov. 30,
1997 (or, under certain circumstances, to Dec. 31, 1997). The parties now
contemplate closing both transactions in the fourth quarter of 1997. The
transactions are expected to be accretive to Sun's earnings in 1998.
Closing of the transactions is subject to the satisfaction of customary
conditions. The RCA acquisition is intended to be accounted for as a pooling of
interests. The Contour acquisition is intended to be accounted for as a
purchase.
Headquartered in Albuquerque, N.M., Sun Healthcare Group, Inc. is a diversified
international long-term care provider. Sun companies operate

States. Contour Medical is a national provider of medical supplies for the
long-term care industry.

not limited to those detailed from time to time in Sun's SEC filings, including
Sun's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 1996 and its
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 1997.
