behalf of, The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), and registered in the name of
DTC's nominee, Cede & Co. Except under the circumstance described below, the

or by a nominee of DTC to DTC or another nominee of DTC or by DTC or any nominee
of DTC to a successor depository or any nominee of such successor.
So long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of such Global

days, the Company will issue individual Notes in exchange for the Global Note
representing such Notes. In addition, the Company may at any time and in its
sole discretion, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture,
determine not to have any of such Notes represented by one or more Global Notes

ARTICLE 3
ADDITIONAL COVENANTS
Section 3.1 In addition to the covenants of the Company set forth in
Article Ten of the Indenture, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes:
(a) Limitations on Incurrence of Debt.
(i) The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary
to, incur any Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the
incurrence of such additional Debt and the application of the proceeds
thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt of the
Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in
accordance with GAAP is greater than 60% of the sum ("Adjusted Total
Assets") of (without duplication) (i) the Total Assets of the Company
and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, or the Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), with
the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt and (ii)
the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable
-5-
acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received
(to the extent that such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate
assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Company
or any Subsidiary since the end of such calendar quarter, including
those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such
additional Debt.
(ii) In addition to the foregoing limitations on the
incurrence of Debt, the Company will not, and will not permit any
Subsidiary to, incur any Secured Debt if, immediately after giving

consolidated basis is greater than 40% of Adjusted Total Assets.
(iii) In addition to the foregoing limitations on the
Incurrence of Debt, the Company will not, and will not permit any
Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated Income
Available for Debt Service to the Annual Debt Service for the four
consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on
which such additional Debt is to be incurred shall have been less than
1.5x, on a pro forma basis after giving effect thereto and to the
application of the proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the assumption
that (i) such Debt and any other Debt incurred by the Company and its
Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period and the
application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other
Debt, had occurred at the beginning of such period; (ii) the repayment
or retirement of any other Debt by the Company and its Subsidiaries
since the first date of such four-quarter period had been repaid or
retired at the beginning of such period (except that, in making such
computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility
shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt
during such period); (iii) in the case of Acquired Debt or Debt
incurred in connection with any acquisition since the first day of such
four-quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the
first day of such period with appropriate adjustments with respect to
such acquisition being included in such pro forma calculation; and (iv)
in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Company or its
Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets since the first day of
such four-quarter period, whether by merger, stock purchase or sale, or
asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related
repayment of Debt had occurred as of the first day of such period with
the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or
disposition being included in such pro forma calculation.
(b) Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets. The Company and its
Subsidiaries will maintain Total Unencumbered Assets of not less than 200% of
the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Unsecured Debt of the Company
and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

Provisions. The Discharge, Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance provisions in
Article Fourteen of the Indenture will apply to the Notes.

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the

1. Interest. Health and Retirement Properties Trust, a Maryland real
estate investment trust (the "Company"), promises to pay interest on the
principal amount of this Note at the rate and in the manner specified below.
The Company shall pay in cash interest on the principal amount of this
Note at the rate per annum of 6.70%. The Company will pay interest semi-annually
in arrears on February 23 and August 23 of each year, commencing on August 23,
1998 or if any such day is not a Business Day (as defined in the Indenture), on
the next succeeding Business Day (each an "Interest Payment Date"), to Holders
of record on the immediately preceding February 8 and August 8.
Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months. Interest shall accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of the
original issuance of the Notes.
2. Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on the Notes
(except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes
at the close of business on the record date next preceding the Interest Payment
Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before
such Interest Payment Date. The Company will pay principal and interest in money
of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of
public and private debts. The Company, however, may pay principal, premium, if
any, and interest by check payable in such money. It may mail an interest check
to a Holder's registered address.
3. Indenture. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as
of July 9, 1997, as supplemented by a Supplemental Indenture dated as of
February 23, 1998 (the "Indenture") between the Company and the Trustee. The
terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of
the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code
xx.xx. 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture. The Notes are
subject to all such terms, and Holders of the Notes are referred to the
Indenture and such act for a statement of such terms. The terms of the Indenture
shall govern any inconsistencies between the Indenture and the Notes. The Notes
are unsecured general obligations of the Company limited to $100,000,000 in
aggregate principal amount.
4. Optional Redemption. The Notes will be subject to redemption at any
time at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30
nor more than 60 days' notice, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the
principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest
to but excluding the applicable redemption date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount.
As used herein the term "Make-Whole Amount" means, in connection with
any optional redemption or accelerated payment of any Note, the excess, if any,
of (i) the aggregate present value as of the date of such redemption or
accelerated payment of each dollar of principal being redeemed or paid and the
amount of interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption or
accelerated payment) that would have been payable in respect of such dollar if
such redemption or accelerated payment had not been made, determined by
discounting, on a semiannual basis, such principal and interest at the
Reinvestment Rate (as defined
A - 2
herein) (determined on the third Business Day preceding the date such notice of
redemption is given or declaration of acceleration is made) from the respective
dates on which such principal and interest would have been payable if such
redemption or accelerated payment had not been made, over (ii) the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes being redeemed or paid.
As used herein the term "Reinvestment Rate" means a rate per annum
equal to the sum of 0.25% (twenty-five one hundredths of one percent) plus the
yield on treasury securities at constant maturity under the heading "Week
Ending" published in the Statistical Release (as defined herein) under the
caption "Treasury Constant Maturities" for the maturity (rounded to the nearest
month) corresponding to the remaining life to maturity, as of the payment date
of the principal being redeemed or paid. If no maturity exactly corresponds to
such maturity, yields for the two published maturities most closely
corresponding to such maturity shall be calculated pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence and the Reinvestment Rate shall be interpolated or
extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding in each of such
relevant periods to the nearest month. For purposes of calculating the
Reinvestment Rate, the most recent Statistical Release published prior to the
date of determination of the Make-Whole Amount shall be used.
As used herein the term "Statistical Release" means the statistical
release designated "H. 15(519)" or any successor publication which is published
weekly by the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively
traded United States government securities adjusted to constant maturities or,
if such statistical release is not published at the time of any determination
under the Supplemental Indenture, then such other reasonably comparable index
which shall be designated by the Company.
5. Mandatory Redemption. The Company shall not be required to make
sinking fund or redemption payments with respect to the Notes.
6. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be mailed at least
30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of
Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes may be redeemed in part
but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder
are to be redeemed. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue
on Notes or portions of them called for redemption.
7. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form
without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. The
transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in
the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other
things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay
any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar
need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note
selected for redemption. Also, it need not exchange or register the transfer of
any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption
of Notes, or during the period between a record date and the corresponding
Interest Payment Date.
8. Defaults and Remedies. In case an Event of Default (as defined in
the Indenture) with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing,
the principal hereof may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become,
due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the provisions
provided in the Indenture.
9. Actions of Holders. The Indenture contains provisions permitting the
holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Notes, on behalf of the holders of all such Notes at a meeting duly
called and held as provided in the Indenture, to make, give or take any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
provided in the Indenture to be made, given or taken by the holders of the
Notes, including without limitation, waiving (a) compliance by the Company with
certain provisions of the Indenture, and (b) certain past defaults under the
Indenture and their

Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange heretofore or in lieu hereof

the Company or the Trustee may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Note
