of Lender's interest in the Loan and the Loan Documents may be assigned, in
whole or in part, by Lender to another Person, including, without limitation, to

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the making of the Loan by

(a) all accounting terms have the meanings assigned to them in
accordance with GAAP;
(b) the words "herein", "hereof", and "hereunder" and other words
of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular
Article, Section, or other subdivision; and
(c) the following terms have the following meanings:
"Account Collateral" has the meaning provided in Section 2.12(a).

"Actual Prepayment Amount" has the meaning provided in Section
8.32(c).
"Adjusted Net Operating Income" means (calculated for the
Facilities or any Facility), for any period, the Net Operating Income for such
period reduced by (i) the Capital Reserve Amount, pro rated for the applicable
period, (ii) to the extent not reflected in the Net Operating Income, annual
base management fees, pro rated for the applicable period, equal to the greater
of (y) actual base management fees paid pursuant to the applicable Management
Agreement and (z) five percent (5%) of Gross Revenues (provided, however, in no
event shall the annual base management fees included in this clause (ii) include
any management expenses, such as, but not limited to, accounting expenses,
marketing costs, regional and corporate personnel expenses and general corporate
overhead, to the extent such expenses are actually reflected in the Net
Operating Income), and (iii) an amount necessary to reflect a minimum annual
vacancy factor of five percent (5%), pro rated for the applicable period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing part of this definition of "Adjusted Net Operating

an identification number by the Collection Account Bank and shall be opened and
maintained in the name "Nomura Asset Capital Corporation as Mortgagee of
ALS-Venture I, Inc." Borrower, each Operator, the Joint Venture and Manager

Date, the Required Debt Service Payment for such Payment Date, the Basic
Carrying Costs Monthly Installment for the Interest Accrual Period immediately
preceding such Payment Date and the Capital Reserve Monthly Installment for the
Interest Accrual Period immediately preceding such Payment Date. After the
occurrence of a Cash Management Event, pursuant to the Collection Account
Agreement among the Collection Account Bank, Borrower and Lender (the
"Collection Account Agreement"), Borrower will authorize and direct the
Collection Account Bank to transfer on a daily basis, all funds deposited in the
Collection Account for each Facility to Lender or Lender's designee to be held
in an Eligible Account established by Lender or Lender's designee (the "Cash
Collateral Account"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event funds in the
Collection Account are being transferred to the Cash Collateral Account pursuant
to the foregoing sentence due to the occurrence of a Cash Management Event
described in clauses (i) through (iv) of the definition of the term "Cash
Management Event", on the date which is twelve (12) months after the cure of the
event which triggered the Cash Management Event and provided no Cash Management
Event exists on such date, the funds shall not be transferred to the Cash

53
and need not be actual accounts (individually, a "Sub-Account" and collectively,
the "Sub-Accounts") and (ii) shall be an Eligible Account to which certain funds
shall be allocated and from which disbursements shall be made pursuant to the
terms of this Loan Agreement.
(d) Permitted Investments. Upon the written request
of Borrower, which request may be made once per Interest Accrual Period, Lender
shall direct the Cash Collateral Account Bank to invest and reinvest any balance
in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time in Permitted Investments as
instructed by Borrower; provided, however, that: (i) if Borrower fails to so
instruct Lender, or if a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, Lender may direct the Cash Collateral Account Bank to invest and
reinvest such balance in Permitted Investments as Lender shall determine in
Lender's discretion; (ii) the maturities of the Permitted Investments on deposit
in the Cash Collateral Account shall, to the extent such dates are
ascertainable, be selected and coordinated to become due not later than the day
before any disbursements from the Sub-Accounts must be made; (iii) all such
Permitted Investments shall be held in the name and be under the sole dominion
and control of Lender; (iv) no Permitted Investment shall be made unless Lender
shall retain a first priority perfected Lien in such Permitted Investment and
all filings and other actions necessary to ensure the validity, perfection, and
priority of such Lien have been taken; (v) Lender shall only be required to
follow the written investment instructions which were most recently received by
Lender and Borrower shall be bound by such last received investment
instructions; and (vi) any request from Borrower containing investment
instructions shall contain an Officer's Certificate from Borrower (which may be
conclusively relied upon by Lender and its agents) that any such investments
constitute Permitted Investments. It is the intention of the parties hereto that
all amounts deposited in the Cash Collateral Account shall at all times be
invested in Permitted Investments. All funds in the Cash Collateral Account that
are invested in a Permitted Investment are deemed to be held in such Cash
Collateral Account for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Lender shall have no liability for any loss in investments of funds
in the Cash Collateral Account that are invested in Permitted Investments
(unless invested contrary to Borrower's request other than after the occurrence
of a Default or an Event of Default) and no such loss shall affect Borrower's
obligation to fund, or liability for funding, the Cash Collateral Account and
each Sub-Account, as the case may be. Borrower and Lender agree that Borrower
shall include all such earnings and losses (other than those for Lender's
account in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence) on the Cash
Collateral Account as income of Borrower for federal and applicable state tax
purposes. Borrower shall be responsible for any and all fees, costs and expenses
with respect to Permitted Investments.
58
54
(e) Interest on Accounts. All interest paid or
other earnings on the Permitted Investments made hereunder shall be income of
Borrower and shall be deposited into the Cash Collateral Account and shall be
subject to allocation and distribution like any other monies deposited therein.
(f) Payment of Basic Carrying Costs, Debt Service,
Capital Improvement Costs, Securitization Expenses and Operating Expenses.
(i) Payment of Basic Carrying Costs.
a. At least five (5) Business Days prior to
the due date of any Basic Carrying Cost payment, and not more frequently than
once each Interest Accrual Period, Borrower shall notify Lender in writing and
request that Lender make such Basic Carrying Cost payment on behalf of Borrower
on or prior to the due date thereof. Together with each such request, Borrower
shall furnish Lender with copies of bills and other documentation as may be
reasonably required by Lender to establish that such Basic Carrying Cost payment
is then due. Lender shall be entitled to conclusively rely on all bills or other
documentation received from Borrower, in each case without independent
investigation or verification. Lender shall make such payments out of the Basic
Carrying Cost Sub-Account before the same shall be delinquent to the extent that
there are funds available in the Basic Carrying Cost Sub-Account and Lender has
received appropriate documentation to establish the amount(s) due and the due
date(s) as and when provided above.
b. Except to the extent that Lender is
obligated to pay Basic Carrying Costs from the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account
pursuant to the terms of this Section, Borrower shall pay all Basic Carrying
Costs with respect to itself and the Facility in accordance with the provisions
of the Mortgage. Borrower's obligation to pay (or enable Lender to pay) Basic
Carrying Costs pursuant to this Agreement shall include, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, Impositions resulting from future changes in law which impose
upon Lender or any Deed of Trust Trustee an obligation to pay any property taxes
or other Impositions or which otherwise adversely affect Lender's or the Deed of
Trust Trustee's interests. (In the event such a change in law prohibits Borrower
from assuming liability for payment of any such Imposition, the outstanding
Indebtedness shall, at the option of Lender, become due and payable on the date
that is one hundred twenty (120) days after such change in law; and failure to
pay such amounts on the date due shall be an Event of Default.) If an Event
59
55
of Default has occurred, the proceeds on deposit in the Basic Carrying Costs
Sub-Account may be applied by Lender in any manner as Lender in its discretion
may determine.
(ii) Payment of Debt Service. At or before 12:00
noon, New York City time, on each Payment Date during the term of the Loan,
Lender shall transfer to Lender's own account from the Debt Service Payment
Sub-Account an amount equal to the Required Debt Service Payment for the

Debt Service Payment Sub-Account at 12:00 noon, New York City time on the
applicable Payment Date.
(iii) Payment of Capital Improvement Costs. Not
more frequently than once each Interest Accrual Period, and provided that no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may notify
Lender in writing and request that Lender release to Borrower or its designee
funds from the Capital Reserve Sub-Account, to the extent funds are available
therein, for payment of Capital Improvement Costs. Together with each such

Reserve Amount, to the extent such funds have not been released to Borrower.
(iv) Payment of Securitization Expenses. To the
extent funds are available therein to pay the amounts for which Borrower is
responsible pursuant to Section 2.13, Lender may release funds out of the
Securitization Expense Sub-Account to (a) pay such amounts or, (b) after Lender

continuing, refund to Borrower all amounts remaining in the Securitization
Expense Sub-Account.

(v) Payment of Operating Expenses. During each of
the following periods: (i) any period in which the Preferred Equity Holder is an
equity owner in Borrower and (ii) on and after the Optional Prepayment Date, not
more frequently than once each Interest Accrual Period and provided that no

the Cash Collateral Account Bank to, within five (5) Business Days after
Lender's receipt of an Operating Expense Certificate from Borrower, such
Operating Expense Certificate to be delivered by Borrower not more frequently
than once each Interest Accrual Period, transfer funds to Borrower or its
designee from the Operating Expense Sub-Account, to the extent that there are
funds available therein, in an amount not to exceed the amount stated in the
Operating Expense Certificate up to the Operating Expense Monthly Installment.

Lender with an Officer's Certificate stating that all operating expenses from
previous periods have been paid in full and that such amounts are then due or
have been paid.

in a given Interest Accrual Period, Borrower requires amounts in excess of the
Operating Expense Monthly Installment (such excess amounts, "Extra Funds"),
Borrower, at the time it delivers the Operating Expense Certificate, may deliver
a written request to Lender for a disbursement of Extra Funds stating the amount
of such Extra Funds and the purpose for such amount, together with copies of
bills and other documentation as may be required by Lender to establish that
such Extra Funds operating expenses are reasonable and that such amounts are
then due or expected to become due in that month. Lender shall approve or

or its designee within ten (10) Business Days after Lender's approval.
(vii) Reconciliation. During (i) any period in
which the Preferred Equity Holder is an equity owner in Borrower and (ii) on and

Operating Expenses pursuant to Section 2.11(f).
(g) Monthly Funding of Sub-Accounts. During each Interest
Accrual Period and, except as provided below, during the term of the Loan
commencing with
61
57
the Interest Accrual Period in which the Closing Date occurs (each, the "Current
Interest Accrual Period"), Lender shall allocate all funds then on deposit
(irrespective of whether such funds were transferred by the Collection Account
Bank to the Cash Collateral Account Bank or by Borrower to Lender pursuant to
Section 2.8(c)) in the Cash Collateral Account among the Sub-Accounts as follows
and in the following priority:
(i) first, to the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the
Basic Carrying Costs Monthly Installment for the Current Interest Accrual Period
has been allocated to the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account;

Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the Required Base Debt Service Payment for
the Payment Date immediately after the Current Interest Accrual Period has been
allocated to the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account;
(iii) third, to the Capital Reserve Sub-Account,
until an amount equal to the Capital Reserve Monthly Installment for the Current
Interest Accrual Period has been allocated to the Capital Reserve Sub-Account;
(iv) fourth, to the Securitization Expense
Sub-Account; provided, however, that such Sub-Account shall only be funded on
the Stabilization Date with a deposit of the Initial Securitization Expense
Amount;
(v) fifth, during each of the following periods:
(i) any period in which the Preferred Equity Holder is an equity owner in
Borrower and (ii) on and after the Optional Prepayment Date, or at Lender's
election, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, any date on or after the
occurrence and during the continuance of such Event of Default, to the Operating
Expense Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the Operating Expense Monthly
Installment for the Current Interest Accrual Period has been allocated to the
Operating Expense Sub-Account; and
(vi) sixth, provided that (i) no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and (ii) Lender has received all financial
information described in Section 5.1(Q) for the most recent periods for which
the same are due, Lender agrees that in each Current Interest Accrual Period any
amounts deposited into or remaining in the Cash Collateral Account after (A) the
minimum amounts set forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and
62
58
(v) above have been satisfied with respect to the Current Interest Accrual
Period and any periods prior thereto and (B) the funding of additional reserves
at levels determined by Borrower to be prudent for working capital, Capital
Improvement Costs and other Borrower costs, which levels shall be satisfactory
to Lender, in Lender's reasonable discretion, shall be disbursed by Lender on
the first Payment Date after the end of the then Current Interest Accrual
Period, at Borrower's expense, to the Preferred Cash Collateral Account (if the
Preferred Equity Holder is an equity owner in the Borrower) or if the Preferred
Equity Holder is not an equity owner in the Borrower, to such account that
Borrower may request in writing. Lender and its agents shall not be responsible
for monitoring Borrower's use of any funds disbursed from the Cash Collateral
Account or any of the Sub-Accounts. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, on and after the Optional Prepayment Date, any amounts
deposited into or remaining in the Cash Collateral Account after (A) the minimum
amounts set forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above have been
satisfied with respect to the Current Interest Accrual Period and any periods
prior thereto and (B) the funding of additional reserves at levels determined by
Borrower to be prudent for working capital, Capital Improvement Costs and other
Borrower costs, which levels shall be satisfactory to Lender, in Lender's
reasonable discretion (such remaining amounts, the "Excess Cash Flow"), shall be
allocated to the Debt Service Sub-Account and be applied by Lender on each
Payment Date in accordance with Section 2.7 and shall not be disbursed to
Borrower; and further provided, however, that if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing any amounts deposited into or remaining in the Cash
Collateral Account shall be for the account of Lender and may be withdrawn by
Lender to be applied in any manner as Lender may elect in Lender's discretion.
If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if on
any Payment Date the balance in any Sub-Account is insufficient to make the
required payment due from such Sub-Account, Lender may, in its sole discretion,
in addition to any other rights and remedies available hereunder, withdraw funds
from any other Sub-Account to pay such deficiency; provided, however, with
respect to any Leased Facility or the Joint Venture Facility, for so long as the
Subsidiary has not acquired an equity interest in the applicable Operator or the
Joint Venture, the funds in the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account and the Capital
Expense Sub-Account allocable to a Leased Facility or the Joint Venture Facility
shall not be used to pay any costs other than the Basic Carrying Costs and the
Capital Expenses of the related Leased Facility or Joint Venture Facility. If
Lender elects to apply funds of any such Sub-Account to pay any Required Base
Debt Service Payment, Borrower shall, upon demand, repay to Lender the amount of
such withdrawn funds to replenish such Sub-Account, and if Borrower shall fail
to repay such amounts within three (3) Business Days after notice of such
withdrawal, an Event of Default shall exist hereunder. Notwithstanding anything
contained
63
59
herein to the contrary, on the Closing Date Borrower shall deposit (i) the
Initial Basic Carrying Costs Amount into the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account,
(ii) the Initial Capital Reserve Amount into the Capital Reserve Sub-Account and
(iii) the Initial Debt Service Reserve Amount into the Debt Service Reserve
Sub-Account. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, on the
Stabilization Date, Borrower shall deposit the Initial Securitization Expense
Amount into the Securitization Expense Sub-Account.
(h) Termination of Central Cash Management. The
obligations of Borrower under Section 2.11 and Section 2.12 to maintain and fund
the Collection Account and the Cash Collateral Account shall terminate in their
entirety and be of no further force or effect upon the satisfaction of each of
the following conditions: (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and is continuing; (ii) the total defeasance of the Loan in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (iii) the release of
the Mortgage by Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents; and (iv) Borrower's receipt of Lender's written
acknowledgement that the conditions described in (i), (ii) and (iii) above have
been satisfied to Lender's satisfaction.
Section 2.12 Security Agreement.
(a) Pledge of Accounts. To secure the full and punctual
payment and performance of all of the Indebtedness, Borrower hereby sells,
assigns, conveys, pledges and transfers to Lender and grants to Lender a first
and continuing Lien on and security interest in and to, the following property,
whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and regardless of
where located (collectively, the "Account Collateral"):
(i) all of Borrower's right, title and interest in
the Cash Collateral Account (including all Sub-Accounts) and all Money and
Permitted Investments, if any, from time to time deposited or held in the Cash
Collateral Account;

Section 2.11(a), (ii) after the Stabilization Date, all Rents, Money and other
items of Gross Revenue with respect to the relevant Facility shall be deposited
into the Collection Account, in accordance with Section 2.11(a), and (iii) so
long as any portion of the Indebtedness is outstanding, Borrower shall not open
(nor permit Manager or any Person to open) any other accounts for the collection
of Rents, Money or other items of Gross Revenue (to the extent such sums are
required to be deposited into the Collection Account), other than a replacement
Collection Account approved by Lender in Lender's reasonable discretion.
(c) Instructions and Agreements. On or before the Closing
Date, Borrower will submit to the Collection Account Bank, the Collection
Account Agreement to be executed by the Collection Account Bank.
(d) Financing Statements; Further Assurances. Borrower
will execute and deliver to Lender for filing a financing statement or
statements in connection with the Account Collateral in the form required to
properly perfect Lender's security interest in the Account Collateral to the
extent that it may be perfected by such a filing. Borrower agrees that at any
time and from time to time, at the expense of Borrower, Borrower shall promptly
execute and deliver all further instruments, and take all further action, that
Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect the pledge,
security interest and Lien granted or purported to be granted hereby, or to
enable Lender to exercise and enforce Lender's rights and remedies hereunder
with respect to, the Account Collateral.
(e) Transfers and Other Liens. Borrower agrees that it
will not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Account Collateral other than
pursuant to the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents, or create or
permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to all or any of the Account
Collateral, except for the Lien granted to Lender under this Agreement.
(f) Lender's Reasonable Care. Beyond the exercise of
reasonable care in the custody thereof, Lender shall not have any duty as to any
Account Collateral or any income thereon in Lender's possession or control or in
the possession or control of any agents
65
61
for, or of Lender, or the preservation of rights against any Person or otherwise
with respect thereto. Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care
in the custody of the Account Collateral in Lender's possession if the Account
Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Lender
accords Lender's own property, it being understood that Lender shall not be
liable or responsible for (i) any loss or damage to any of the Account
Collateral, or for any diminution in value thereof from a loss of, or delay in
Lender's acknowledging receipt of, any wire transfer from the Collection Account
Bank or (ii) any loss, damage or diminution in value by reason of the act or
omission of Lender, or Lender's agents, employees or bailees, other than for
gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender, or Lender's agents, employees
or bailees.
(g) Lender Appointed Attorney-In-Fact. Borrower hereby
irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender as Borrower's true and lawful
attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, at any time after the
occurrence of an Event of Default to execute, acknowledge and deliver any
instruments and to exercise and enforce every right, power, remedy, option and
privilege of Borrower with respect to the Account Collateral, and do in the
name, place and stead of Borrower, all such acts, things and deeds for and on
behalf of and in the name of Borrower with respect to the Account Collateral,
which Borrower could or might do or which Lender may deem necessary or desirable
to more fully vest in Lender the rights and remedies provided for herein with
respect to the Account Collateral and to accomplish the purposes of this
Agreement. The foregoing powers of attorney are irrevocable and coupled with an
interest.
(h) Continuing Security Interest; Termination. This
Section shall create a continuing pledge of, Lien on and security interest in
the Account Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until payment
in full of the Indebtedness. Upon payment in full of the Indebtedness, Borrower
shall be entitled to the return, upon Borrower's written request and at
Borrower's expense, of such of the Account Collateral as shall not have been
sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and Lender shall execute
such instruments and documents as may be reasonably requested by Borrower in
writing to evidence such termination and the release of the pledge and Lien
hereof, provided, however, that Borrower shall pay on demand all of Lender's
expenses in connection therewith.
Section 2.13 Securitization. Borrower hereby acknowledges that
Lender, its successors or assigns, may sell or securitize the Loan or portions
thereof in one or more transactions through the issuance of securities, which
securities may be rated by the Rating Agencies (each, a "Securitization"; and
collectively, the "Securitizations"). Borrower agrees
66
62
that it shall cooperate with Lender and use Borrower's best efforts to
facilitate the consummation of each Securitization including, without
limitation, by: (i) amending or causing the amendment of this Agreement, the
documents evidencing the Class B Equity Interests, if any, and the Class C
Equity Interests, if any, and the other Loan Documents, and executing such
additional documents, instruments and agreements including amendments to

requested by the Rating Agencies to conform the terms of the Loan to the
terms of similar loans underlying completed or pending securitized transactions
having or seeking ratings similar to those then being sought in connection with
the relevant Securitization; (ii) promptly and reasonably providing such
information as may be requested in connection with the preparation of a private
placement memorandum, prospectus or a registration statement required to

with each of (a) a preliminary and a private placement memorandum or (b) a
preliminary and final prospectus, as applicable, an indemnification certificate
(x) certifying that Borrower has carefully examined such private placement
memorandum, prospectus or registration statement, as applicable, including,
without limitation, the sections entitled "Special Considerations", "Description
of the Mortgage Loan", "The Underlying Mortgaged Properties", "The Manager",
"Borrower" and "Certain Legal Aspects of the Mortgage Loan", and such sections
(and any other sections requested) insofar as they relate to Borrower, its
Affiliates, the Loan or the Facilities do not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to
indemnify any Indemnified Party for any losses relating to untrue statements or
omissions which Borrower identified to Lender in writing at the time of

indemnifying each Indemnified Party, the Issuer and the Advisor for any losses,
claims, damages, costs, expenses or liabilities (including, without limitation,
all liabilities under all applicable federal and state securities laws)
(collectively, the "Liabilities") to which any of them may become subject (i)
insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact relating to Borrower, its
Affiliates, the Loan, the Facilities, the Class B Equity Interests, if any, and
Class C Equity Interests, if any, any Operator, the Joint Venture, the Manager
or any aspect of the subject financing or the parties directly involved therein

alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such
sections or necessary in order to make the statements in such sections, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) as a
result of any untrue statement of material fact in any of the financial
statements of Borrower
67
63
incorporated into any placement memorandum, prospectus, registration statement
or other document connected with the issuance of securities or the failure to
include in such financial statements or in any placement memorandum, prospectus,
registration statement or other document connected with the issuance of
securities any material fact relating to Borrower, its Affiliates, the
Facilities, the Class B Equity Interests, if any, and Class C Equity Interests,
if any, any Operator, the Joint Venture, the Loan, the Manager and any aspect of
the subject financing necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided,
however, that Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnified Party
for any losses relating to untrue statements or omissions which Borrower
identified to Lender in writing at the time of Borrower's examination of such
memorandum or prospectus, as applicable,and (z) agreeing to reimburse Lender,
the Issuer and the Advisor for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by Lender, the Issuer and the Advisor in connection with investigating or
defending the Liabilities; (iv) causing to be rendered such customary opinion

required in other securitized transactions having or seeking the same rating as
is then being sought for the Securitization; (vi) providing such information
regarding the Collateral as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies
or otherwise required in connection with the formation of a REMIC; and (vii)
providing any other information and materials reasonably required in the
Securitization. Subject to Lender's application of funds in the Securitization
Expense Sub-Account, Borrower agrees to pay on the Securitization Closing Date
and, if earlier, within thirty (30) days after the incurrence thereof, upon
demand, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs of Lender (and not previously
reimbursed by Borrower) in connection with the Securitization (or any attempt to
securitize the Loan), including, without limitation, the cost of preparing a
private placement memorandum, prospectus or registration statement, Rating
Agency fees and expenses (including ongoing surveillance fees), legal fees and
disbursements (including, without limitation, in connection with the rendering
of legal opinions), third party due diligence expenses, including, without
limitation, appraisals, engineering reports and environmental reports, the fees

Securitization Expense Amount; provided, further, Borrower's costs and expenses
in complying with the terms of this Section and Borrower's liability for
Lender's costs and expenses pursuant to Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 8.32(h) shall not
exceed in the aggregate Three Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Dollars
68
64
($375,000) exclusive of the Initial Securitization Expense Amount. Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that the Lender may, at any time on or after the Closing
Date, assign its duties, rights or obligations hereunder or under any Loan
Document in whole, or in part, to a servicer and/or a trustee in Lender's
discretion. Nothing herein shall in any way limit Lender's right to sell all or
a portion of the Loan in a transaction which is not a Securitization.
Section 2.14 Supplemental Mortgage Affidavits. The Liens to be
created by Borrower's Mortgages are intended to encumber the Facility described
therein to the full extent of Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents.
Until Borrower acquires the fee interest in the Joint Venture Facility, the
Liens to be created by the Joint Venture Mortgage relating to the Joint Venture
Facility are intended to encumber the Joint Venture Facility to the full extent
of the Joint Venture's obligations under the Joint Venture Note. As of the
Closing Date, Borrower shall have paid all state, county and municipal recording
and all other taxes imposed upon the execution and recordation of the Mortgages.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if at any time Lender
determines, based on Lender's estimation of market value and applicable law,
that Lender is not being afforded the maximum amount of security available from
any Facility as a direct, or indirect, result of applicable taxes not having
been paid with respect to the Related Mortgage, Lender may request, and Borrower
agrees that it (i) will execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lender, within a
reasonable period of time after Lender's request, supplemental affidavits
increasing the amount of Indebtedness for which all applicable taxes have been
or are required to be paid under the Related Mortgage to an amount determined by
Lender, in its reasonable discretion, to be appropriate and (ii) will pay any
and all applicable recording, intangible or similar taxes.
Section 2.15. Substitution of Properties.
(a) Generally. Borrower may, subject to the conditions in
this Section, substitute one or more properties (each a "Substitute Property"
and collectively the "Substitute Properties") for a then encumbered Facility (a
"Replaced Property" and collectively, the "Replaced Properties"). From and after
the substitution of one or more Substitute Properties in accordance herewith,
each such Substitute Property shall thereafter be deemed a Facility under the
Loan Documents, and in the case of more than one Substitute Property, the sum of
the allocated loan amounts of each of the Substitute Properties plus each
Facility which is not a Replaced Facility (the "Remaining Facilities"), shall
equal the Principal Indebtedness. In the event of a substitution, the Note shall
remain in full force and effect, and new Loan Documents encumbering the
Substitute Properties (the "Substitute Loan Documents") shall be executed and
delivered by Borrower to Lender to encumber the Substitute Properties.
Concurrently with the
69
65
completion of all steps necessary to substitute properties as provided herein,
Lender shall execute or cause to be executed all such documents requested by
Borrower as are necessary or appropriate to release all Liens granted to Lender
and affecting the Replaced Property. Borrower shall prepare at its expense all
such documents.
(b) Substitute Property Requirements. To qualify as a
Substitute Property, each such property must at the time of substitution:
(1) be a property operated as an assisted living
facility as to which Borrower will hold indefeasible fee simple title
free and clear of any lien or other encumbrance except for Permitted
Encumbrances;
(2) Borrower shall deposit into the Cash Collateral
Account Sub-Accounts (a) prior to a Securitization, such reserves as
may be deemed necessary by Lender in Lender's reasonable discretion and
(b) after a Securitization, reserves in such amounts that the Rating
Agencies rating any Securitization confirm in writing will not result
in a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification any of the then applicable
ratings of the securities issued in a Securitization;
(3) have a substantially similar quality and physical
condition as the quality and physical condition of the Replaced
Facilities at the time of the substitution;
(4) when combined with the other Substitute
Properties and the Remaining Facilities (if any) results in an overall
loan to value ratio for the Loan (as evidenced by an Appraisal of the
proposed Substitute Property and the proposed Replaced Property and
those Appraisals of the other Facilities previously delivered to
Lender) equal to or less than the lesser of: (A) the loan to value
ratio on the Closing Date; and (B) the overall loan to value ratio of
the Facilities immediately prior to the substitution (as evidenced by
an Appraisal of the proposed Substitute Property and the proposed
Replaced Property and those Appraisals of the other Facilities
previously delivered to Lender).
(5) when combined with the other Substitute
Properties and the Remaining Facilities (if any) results in an overall
Debt Service Coverage Ratio (calculated as of the end of the calendar
month immediately preceding the calendar month in which the
substitution is proposed to occur on the basis of the preceding twelve
(12) calendar months) which is no less than the greater of: (A) 1:35
and (B) the
70
66
overall Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the Facilities (calculated as of
the end of the calendar month immediately preceding the calendar month
in which the substitution is proposed to occur on the basis of the
preceding twelve (12) calendar months) immediately prior to the
substitution;
(6) have an Adjusted Net Operating Income which has
not decreased from the Adjusted Net Operating Income for the
immediately prior calendar year for each of the previous years for
which the Facility has been operated, up to three (3) calendar years
immediately preceding the substitution; and
(7) be an "interest in real property" as defined in
Treasury Regulation Section 1.8606-2 or any successor provision of law.
(c) Conditions to Substitution. In addition to the conditions
in Section 2.15(b) above, substitution of any property pursuant to this Section
after the Stabilization Date shall be subject to the satisfaction of the
following, all of which shall be prepared or obtained at Borrower's expense:
(i) receipt by Lender and, if the Loan has been sold
in a Securitization, the Rating Agencies of written notice thereof from
Borrower at least sixty (60) days before the date of the proposed
substitution (the "Substitution Date"), together with (1) written
evidence that the property proposed to be a Substitute Property
complies with this Section and (2) such other information, including
financial information, as Lender (prior to a Securitization) or the
Rating Agencies (after a Securitization) may request;
(ii) if the Loan has been sold in to a
Securitization, Lender's receipt of written confirmation from the
Rating Agencies that the ratings of the securities issued in the
Securitization will not be qualified, reduced, downgraded or withdrawn
as a result of such substitution;
(iii) delivery to Lender of an opinion of counsel to
the effect that the proposed substitution will not adversely affect the
tax status of the REMIC utilized in connection with any Securitization
and that the proposed substitution will not result in a deemed exchange
pursuant to Section 1001 of the Code;
(iv) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing; and
71
67
(v) satisfaction, with respect to each Substitute
Property of all of the conditions precedent set forth in Article III
hereof, as though the property to be substituted were the Facility on
the Closing Date and such other conditions as Lender in its normal and
usual due diligence and lending activities deems applicable to the
property type being substituted.

formation has been, and will continue to be, a duly formed and existing

and a Single-Purpose Entity, is duly qualified as a foreign entity in each other
jurisdiction in which the nature of its business, any Facility or any of the

proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or other
agency now pending and served or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened
against Borrower, any Operator, the Joint Venture, any SPE Equity Owner, Manager
or any Facility which, if adversely determined, is reasonably likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect on an Aggregated Facilities Basis.
(e) Agreements. None of the Borrower, any Operator,
the Joint Venture, or the Manager is a party to any agreement or instrument or
subject to any restriction which is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations,

Manager or any Facility is bound where such default is reasonably likely to have
a Material Adverse Effect on an Aggregated Facilities Basis.
(f) No Bankruptcy Filing. Neither Borrower nor any
Operator, the Joint Venture, or the Manager is contemplating either the filing
of a petition by such entity under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency
laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of such entity's assets or

of any such petition against any such entity.
82
78
(g) Full and Accurate Disclosure. No statement of
fact made by or on behalf of Borrower, the Joint Venture, any Operator, or the
Manager in the Loan Documents or in any other document or certificate delivered
to Lender by Borrower, the Joint Venture, any Operator or the Manager contains
any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact
necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading. There
is no fact presently known to Borrower which has not been disclosed to Lender
which materially adversely affects, nor as far as Borrower can foresee, is
likely to materially adversely affect the business, operations or condition
(financial or otherwise) of Borrower, the Joint Venture, any Operator or the
Manager.
(h) Location of Chief Executive Offices. The location
of Borrower's principal place of business and the location of Borrower's chief
executive office is the address listed in the first paragraph of this Agreement,
and Borrower has no other places of business, except for the Facilities which
have the addresses shown on Exhibit B.
(i) Compliance. Borrower, the Joint Venture, each
Operator, the Manager, each Facility and Borrower's, the Joint Venture's, each
Operator's and the Manager's use thereof and operations thereat comply in all
material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements and all Insurance
Requirements. Borrower, the Joint Venture, each Operator, and the Manager are
not in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of
any Governmental Authority, the violation of which is reasonably likely to have
a Material Adverse Effect.
(j) Other Debt and Obligations. Borrower has no
financial obligation under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan
agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party, or by
which Borrower or any Facility is bound, other than unsecured trade payables
incurred in the ordinary course of business relating to the ownership and
operation of such Facility and financing Equipment or vehicles used in the
ordinary course of owning and operating the Facility (including capitalized
leases of Equipment and vehicles) which trade payables and Equipment and
vehicles financing do not exceed a maximum amount of One Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($150,000) for each Facility (provided, however, the aggregate amount
for all Facilities at any one time shall not exceed One Million Two Hundred
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000)) and, with respect to the trade payables,
are paid within thirty (30) days of the date incurred, and other than
obligations under the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. Borrower has not
borrowed or received other debt financing (other than as permitted above) that
has not been heretofore repaid in full and Borrower has no known material
contingent liabilities.
83
79
(k) ERISA. Each Plan and, to the knowledge of
Borrower, each Multiemployer Plan, is in compliance with, and has been
administered in compliance with, its terms and the applicable provisions of
ERISA, the Code and any other federal or state law, and no event or condition
has occurred as to which Borrower would be under an obligation to furnish a
report to Lender under Section 5.1(s) where the lack of compliance is reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on an Aggregated Facilities Basis.
(l) Solvency. Borrower (i) has not entered into this
Loan Agreement or any Loan Document with the actual intent to hinder, delay, or
defraud any creditor, and (ii) has received reasonably equivalent value in
exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents. Giving effect to the
transactions contemplated hereby, the fair saleable value of Borrower's assets
exceeds and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, exceed Borrower's total liabilities, including, without limitation,
subordinated, unliquidated, or disputed liabilities or Contingent Obligations.
The fair saleable value of Borrower's assets is and will, immediately following
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, be greater than Borrower's
probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its Contingent Obligations
or its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower's assets do not
and, immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, will
not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as
conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does
not believe that it will, incur debts and liabilities (including, without
limitation, Contingent Obligations and other commitments) beyond its ability to
pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts to be
payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).

person" within the meaning of Section 1445(f)(3) of the Code.

company" of a "holding company" or an "affiliate" of either a "holding company"
or a "subsidiary company" within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding

law or regulation which purports to restrict or regulate its ability to borrow
money.

exists under or with respect to any Loan Document.
84
80
(p) Labor Matters. None of Borrower, the Joint
Venture or any Operator is not a party to any collective bargaining agreements.
(q) Title to the Mortgaged Properties. Borrower owns
good, indefeasible, marketable and insurable fee simple title to each Leased
Facility, free and clear of all Liens, other than the Permitted Encumbrances
applicable to such Leased Facility. The Joint Venture owns good, indefeasible,
marketable and insurable fee simple title to the Joint Venture Facility, free
and clear of all Liens, other than Permitted Encumbrances applicable to such
Joint Venture Facility. There are no outstanding options to purchase or rights
of first refusal affecting any Facility (other than the Parent's rights (which
may be exercised by the Subsidiary) to make the Operator/JV Acquisitions). The
Permitted Encumbrances do not and will not materially and adversely affect (i)
the ability of Borrower to pay in full all sums due under the Note or any of its
other obligations in a timely manner or (ii) the use of any Facility for the use
currently being made thereof, the operation of any Facility as currently being
operated or the value of any Facility.
(r) Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. Borrower
will use the proceeds of the Loan for the purposes described in Section 2.2. No
part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or

inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other Regulations of such Board of
Governors, or for any purposes prohibited by applicable Legal Requirements.
(s) Financial Information. All historical financial
data concerning Borrower, the Joint Venture, Parent and each Facility that has
been delivered by Borrower to Lender is true, complete and correct in all
material respects. Since the delivery of such data, except as otherwise
disclosed in writing to Lender, there has been no material adverse change in the
financial position of Borrower, the Joint Venture, Parent or any Facility, or in
the results of operations of Borrower. None of Borrower, the Joint Venture or
Parent has incurred any obligation or liability, contingent or otherwise, not
reflected in such financial data which is reasonably likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect on an Aggregated Facilities Basis.
(t) Condemnation. No Taking has been commenced or, to
Borrower's knowledge, is contemplated with respect to all or any material
portion of any Facility or for the relocation of roadways providing access to
any Facility.
85
81
(u) Utilities and Public Access. Each Facility has
adequate rights of access to public ways and is served by adequate water, sewer,
sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities as are adequate for full utilization
of such Facility for its current purpose. Except as otherwise disclosed by the
Surveys, all public utilities necessary to the continued use and enjoyment of
each Facility as presently used and enjoyed are located in the public
right-of-way abutting the premises, and all such utilities are connected so as
to serve each Facility either (i) without passing over other property or, (ii)
if such utilities pass over other property, pursuant to valid easements. All
roads necessary for the full utilization of each Facility for its current
purpose have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all
Governmental Authorities or are the subject of access easements for the benefit
of such Facility.
(v) Environmental Compliance. Borrower represents,
warrants and covenants, as to itself, the Joint Venture, each Operator, the
Manager, and each Facility:
(i) Borrower, the Joint Venture, each Operator,
the Manager, and each Facility are in compliance with all applicable
Environmental Laws, which compliance includes, without limitation, the
possession by Borrower, the Joint Venture, each Operator, or the Manager, of and
compliance with all environmental, health and safety Permits, licenses and other
governmental authorizations required in connection with the ownership and
operation of each Facility under all Environmental Laws, except where the
failure to comply with such laws is not reasonably likely to result in a
Material Adverse Effect.
(ii) There is no Environmental Claim pending or,
to Borrower's knowledge, threatened, and no penalties arising under
Environmental Laws have been assessed, against Borrower, the Joint Venture, any
Operator, the Manager, any Facility or against any Person whose liability for
any Environmental Claim Borrower has or may have retained or assumed either
contractually or by operation of law, and no investigation or review is pending
or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened by any Governmental Authority,
citizens group, employee or other Person with respect to any alleged failure by
Borrower, the Joint Venture, any Operator, the Manager, or any Facility to have
any environmental, health or safety permit, license or other authorization
required under, or to otherwise comply with, any Environmental Law or with
respect to any alleged liability of Borrower, the Joint Venture, any Operator,
or the Manager, for any Use or Release of any Hazardous Substances or the
presence, Use, or Release of any Hazardous Substances at, on, in, under, or from
any Facility.
(iii) To the knowledge of Borrower after due
inquiry, there have been and are no past or present Releases or threats of
Release of any Hazardous
86
82
Substance that are likely to form the basis of any Environmental Claim against
Borrower, the Joint Venture, any Operator, the Manager, any Facility or, to
Borrower's knowledge, against any Person whose liability for any Environmental
Claim Borrower has or may have retained or assumed either contractually or by
operation of law.
(iv) To the knowledge of Borrower after due
inquiry and except as disclosed in the Environmental Reports, without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, there is not present at, on, in or under any
Facility, PCB-containing equipment, asbestos or asbestos containing materials,
underground or aboveground storage tanks or surface impoundments for Hazardous
Substances, lead in drinking water (except in concentrations that comply with
all Environmental Laws), or lead-based paint (nor have there been any
underground storage tanks present at, on, in, or under any Facility).
(v) No Liens are presently recorded with the
appropriate land records under or pursuant to any Environmental Law with respect
to any Facility and, to Borrower's knowledge, no Governmental Authority has been
taking or is in the process of taking any action that could subject any Facility
to Liens under any Environmental Law.
(vi) There have been no environmental
investigations, studies, audits, reviews or other analyses conducted by or on
behalf of Borrower, the Joint Venture, any Operator, or the Manager, that are in
the possession or control of Borrower in relation to any Facility which have not
been provided to Lender.
(vii) No conditions exist which would require
Borrower, the Joint Venture, any Operator, or the Manager, under any
Environmental Laws to place a notice on any deed to any Facility with respect to
the presence, Use or Release of Hazardous Substances at, on, in, under or from
any Facility and no Facility has any such notice in its deed.
(w) No Joint Assessment; Separate Lots. Borrower has not
and shall not suffer, permit or initiate the joint assessment of any Facility
(i) with any other real property constituting a separate tax lot, and (ii) with
any portion of such Facility which may be deemed to constitute personal
property, or any other procedure whereby the lien of any taxes which may be
levied against such personal property shall be assessed or levied or charged to
such Facility as a single lien. Each Facility is comprised of one or more
parcels, each of which constitutes a separate tax lot and none of which
constitutes a portion of any other tax lot.
87
83
(x) Assessments. Except as disclosed in the Title
Insurance Policies, there are no pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower,
proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise
affecting any Facility, nor, to the knowledge of Borrower, are there any
contemplated improvements to any Facility that may result in such special or
other assessments.
(y) Mortgage and Other Liens. Each Mortgage creates a
valid and enforceable first mortgage Lien on the relevant Facility as security
for the repayment (a) as to the Leased Facilities and the Non-Leased Facilities,
of the Indebtedness and (b) as to the Joint Venture Facility, the Loan
Obligations (as defined in the Joint Venture Mortgage), in all cases, subject
only to the Permitted Encumbrances applicable to such Facility. Each Collateral
Security Instrument establishes and creates a valid, effective, and enforceable
Lien on and a security interest in, or claim to, the rights and property
described therein. All property covered by such Collateral Security Instrument
is subject to a UCC financing statement filed and/or recorded, as appropriate,

counterclaim or defense by any of the Borrower, the Joint Venture or the
Manager, including the defense of usury, and none of the Borrower, the Joint

of any kind or nature is required pursuant to an order, directive, decree or
settlement agreement of or with any Governmental Authority or under any
applicable Environmental Law (collectively, the "Remedial Work"), because of or
in connection with the (x) past, present or future presence, suspected presence,
Release or threatened Release of a Hazardous Substance at, on, in, under or from

92
Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion all such

not timely commence and diligently prosecute to completion the Remedial Work,
Lender may (but shall not be obligated to), upon sixty (60) days prior written
notice to Borrower of its intention to do so, cause such Remedial Work to be
performed. Borrower shall pay or reimburse Lender on demand for all Advances (as

(iii) Unless otherwise required by law,
Environmental Laws or any Governmental Authority, Borrower shall not commence
any Remedial Work under clause (i) above, nor enter into any settlement
agreement, consent decree or other compromise relating to any Hazardous

select or may require Borrower to select a consulting environmental Engineer
reasonably satisfactory to Lender to conduct and prepare environmental reports
assessing the environmental condition of any Facility. Lender shall be given a
reasonable opportunity to review any reports, data and other documents or

investigation or inquiry commenced or threatened, in writing, by any
Governmental Authority or Person, against Borrower, the Joint Venture, any
Operator, or the Manager, with respect to the presence, suspected presence,

any property not owned by Borrower, including, without limitation, proceedings
under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act,
as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601, et seq., which could reasonably be expected
to impair the value of Lender's security interests or have a Material Adverse
Effect;

interests of Lender or such Deed of Trust Trustee, will not be adequately
protected by Borrower. Borrower agrees to bear and shall pay or reimburse Lender

reasonable expenses incurred (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements) and such Deed of Trust Trustee, incurred by Lender and such Deed
of Trust Trustee in connection with any such action or proceeding.
(i) Indemnification. Borrower agrees to indemnify,
reimburse, defend (with counsel satisfactory to Lender, at Lender's election)
and hold harmless any Indemnified Party and any Deed of Trust Trustee, for,

losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including, without limitation,
interest, penalties, consequential damages, attorneys' fees, disbursements and
expenses, and consultants' fees, disbursements and expenses, including costs of

it elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or otherwise
available to it under law. Borrower waives and releases Lender and any Deed of
Trust Trustee from any rights or defenses Borrower may have under common law or
Environmental Laws for liability arising from or resulting from the presence,
Use or Release of Hazardous Substances except to the extent directly and solely
caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender or such Deed of
Trust Trustee.

conveyances and assurances for the better and more effective carrying

be managed at all times by the Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement
unless terminated as herein provided. Any Management Agreement shall be
terminated by Borrower, the relevant Operator or the Joint Venture, as
applicable at Lender's request, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to
Borrower and the Manager (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, (ii) if
Manager commits any act which would permit termination by Borrower, the relevant
Operator or the Joint Venture, as applicable, under the Management Agreement,
(iii) in the event that, after the Stabilization Date, as of the last day of any
calendar quarter, the aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for all of the
Facilities, computed on the basis of the prior twelve (12) calendar months on
the remaining outstanding balance of the Loan, is less than 1.15 and remains
less than 1.15 for three (3) consecutive months computed in each case on the
basis of the prior twelve (12) months, (iv) if after the Stabilization Date as
of the last day of any calendar quarter, such Adjusted Net Operating Income for
all of the Facilities, computed on the basis of the prior twelve (12) calendar
months, is less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Adjusted Net Operating
Income on the Stabilization Date and remains less than eighty-five percent (85%)
of the Adjusted Net Operating Income for three (3) consecutive months computed
in each case on the basis of the prior twelve (12) calendar months or (v) upon
the occurrence of a default in any payment obligation or a breach of any other
obligation of Borrower to Preferred Equity Holder. Lender shall not have the
right to terminate any Management Agreement pursuant to clause (iii) above, if
on the first Payment Date after Lender made the determination that Lender had
the right to terminate a Manager pursuant to clause (iii) above, Borrower
defeases the Loan in accordance with the terms of Section 2.10 in an amount
sufficient to cause the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for all of the Facilities
(calculated as if such amount was actually applied to reduce the Principal
Indebtedness upon which Debt Service was paid and calculated as if the Principal
Indebtedness was reamortized on a straight-line basis (as if the reduction had
occurred) over the remaining number of months
103
99
until the Maturity Date) computed on the basis of the prior twelve (12) calendar
months, to be at least equal to 1.15. If a manager is terminated pursuant
hereto, Borrower shall immediately seek to appoint a replacement manager
acceptable to Lender in Lender's discretion, and Borrower's failure to appoint
an acceptable manager within sixty (60) days after Lender's request of Borrower
to terminate any Management Agreement shall constitute an immediate Event of
Default. Borrower may from time to time appoint a successor manager to manage
the relevant Facilities, which successor manager shall be approved in writing by
Lender in Lender's reasonable discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
successor manager selected hereunder by Lender or Borrower to serve as Manager

condition is reasonably likely, in the determination of Lender, to have a
Material Adverse Effect on an Aggregated Facilities Basis;
(xvi) if without Lender's prior written
consent (A) any Manager resigns or is removed or (B) any Management Agreement is
entered into for any Facility or (C) there is any change in or termination of
any Management Agreement for any Facility;
(xvii) if Borrower shall be in default under
any of the other obligations, agreements, undertakings, terms, covenants,
provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or the other
Loan Documents, not otherwise referred to in
117
113
this Section 7.1, for ten (10) days after written notice to Borrower from Lender
or its successors or assigns, in the case of any default which can be cured by
the payment of a sum of money or for thirty (30) days after written notice from
Lender or its successors or assigns, in the case of any other default (unless
otherwise provided herein or in such other Loan Document); provided, however,
that if such non-monetary default under this subparagraph is susceptible of cure
but cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period and provided
further that Borrower shall have commenced to cure such default within such
thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to
cure the same, such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for such time as is
reasonably necessary for Borrower in the exercise of due diligence to cure such
default, but in no event shall such period exceed one hundred and twenty (120)
days after the original notice from Lender;
(xviii) if a Receivables Loan is entered
into pursuant to Section 6.1(c), a default or event of default under the loan
documents evidencing such Receivables Loan;
(xix) intentionally deleted.
(xx) if any default or event of default
occurs (as to any party) under any Operator Lease (subject to any applicable
notice and cure periods required under such Operator Lease);
(xxi) if Borrower, any Operator, the Joint
Venture or the Manager shall fail to
correct, within the time deadlines set by any licensing or similar agency, any
deficiency that justifies either of the following actions by such agency with
respect to any Facility and such agency commences either of the following
actions:
(i) a termination of any License;
(ii) a ban on new admissions generally; and
(xxii) if any Facility is assessed material fines or penalties
by any state licensing or similar agency having jurisdiction over Borrower, any
Operator, Manager, the Joint Venture or any Facility which are not paid within
the time frame required by such agency.

Section 7.2 Remedies. (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers and other remedies
available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement, the Note, the
Mortgages or any of the other Loan Documents, or at law or in equity may be
exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time (including, without
limitation, the right to accelerate and declare the outstanding principal
amount, unpaid interest, Default Rate interest, Late Charges, Yield Maintenance
Premium and any other amounts owing by Borrower to be immediately due and
payable), without notice or demand, whether or not all or any portion of the
Indebtedness shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall
have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of
its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to any
Facility or all or any portion of the Collateral. Any such actions taken by
Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently,
singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as
Lender may determine in its discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender
permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan
Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary herein, the
outstanding principal amount, unpaid interest, Default Rate interest, Late
Charges, Yield Maintenance Premium and any other amounts owing by Borrower shall
be accelerated and immediately due and payable, without any election by Lender
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(x) or
Section 7.1(xi). Notwithstanding that this Agreement may refer to a continuing
Event of Default, and without limiting Borrower's right to cure a Default which
may, with the passage of time, become an Event of Default, Borrower shall have
no right pursuant to this Agreement to cure any Event of Default unless this
Agreement is amended by Borrower and Lender in writing.
Section 7.3 Remedies Cumulative. The rights, powers and
remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of
any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant
to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents executed by or with respect to
Borrower, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender's rights, powers
and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and
in such order as Lender may determine in Lender's discretion. No delay or
omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of
Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a
waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time
to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of any Default or
Event of Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default
or Event of Default or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
Any and all of Lender's rights with respect to the Collateral shall
119
115
continue unimpaired, and Borrower shall be and remain obligated in accordance
with the terms hereof, notwithstanding (i) the release or substitution of
Collateral at any time, or of any rights or interest therein or (ii) any delay,
extension of time, renewal, compromise or other indulgence granted by Lender in
the event of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Collateral or
otherwise hereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
Lender reserves the right to seek a deficiency judgment or preserve a deficiency
claim, in connection with the foreclosure of any Mortgage on a related Facility,
to the extent necessary to foreclose on other parts of the Mortgaged Property
and/or Mortgaged Properties.
Section 7.4 Lender's Right to Perform. If Borrower fails to
perform any covenant or obligation contained herein and such failure shall
continue for a period of (5) five Business Days after Borrower's receipt of
written notice thereof from Lender, without in any way limiting Section 7.1
hereof, Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, itself perform, or cause
performance of, such covenant or obligation, and the expenses of Lender incurred
in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to send notice to
Borrower of any such failure.

Section 8.4 Modification, Waiver in Writing. No modification,
amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by
Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in

waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the
purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no
notice to or demand on Borrower shall entitle Borrower to any other or future
notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.
Section 8.5 Delay Not a Waiver. Neither any failure nor any
delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term,
condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or
privilege hereunder, or under the Note, or of any other Loan Document, or any
other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a
waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any
other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or
privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment
after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any
other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either
to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this
Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for
failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

SECTION 8.7 TRIAL BY JURY. BORROWER AND LENDER, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT THAT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO, HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY TORT ACTION, BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY
HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
123
119
Section 8.8 Headings. The Article and Section headings in this
Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not
constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.
Section 8.9 Assignment. Lender shall have the right to assign
in whole or in part this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents and
the obligations hereunder or thereunder to any Person and to participate all or
any portion of the Loan evidenced hereby, including without limitation, any
servicer or trustee in connection with a Securitization. Lender shall provide
Borrower with written notice of any such assignment; provided, however, that
such notice shall not be a condition of Lender's right to assign this Agreement
and/or any of the Loan Documents and the failure to deliver such notice shall
not constitute a default under this Loan Agreement.
Section 8.10 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision
of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.
Section 8.11 Preferences. Lender shall have no obligation to
marshal any assets in favor of Borrower or any other party or against or in
payment of any or all of the obligations of Borrower pursuant to this Agreement,
the Note or any other Loan Document. Lender shall have the continuing and
exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower
to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower
makes a payment or payments to Lender for Borrower's benefit, which payment or
proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law,
common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds
received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied
shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or
proceeds had not been received by Lender.
Section 8.12 Waiver of Notice. Borrower shall not be entitled
to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to
matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and
expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with
respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal
Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby
124
120
expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any
matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents does not
specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to
Borrower.
Section 8.13 Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim
or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents, has acted unreasonably or
unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement,
the Note, the Mortgages or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as
the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower
agrees that neither Lender nor its agents, shall be liable for any monetary
damages, and Borrower's sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action
seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that
any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall
be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.
Section 8.14 Exculpation. Except as otherwise set forth in
this Section 8.14 and Section 4.2 to the contrary, Lender shall not enforce the
liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations
contained in this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgages or any of the other Loan
Documents executed and delivered by Borrower except that Lender may pursue any
power of sale, bring a foreclosure action, action for specific performance,
action for money judgment, or other appropriate action or proceeding (including,
without limitation, to obtain a deficiency judgment) against Borrower or any
other Person solely for the purpose of enabling Lender to realize upon (a) the
Collateral, and (b) the Rents and Accounts arising from any Facility to the
extent (x) received by Borrower or any Manager (or any of their affiliates),
after the occurrence of an Event of Default or (y) distributed to Borrower or
any Manager, or their respective shareholders, or partners or members, as
applicable, or affiliates during or with respect to any period for which Lender
did not receive the full amounts it was entitled to receive as prepayments of
the Loan pursuant to Section 2.6, 2.11 (all Rents and Accounts covered by
clauses (x) and (y) being hereinafter referred to as the "Recourse
Distributions") and (c)) any other collateral given to Lender under the Loan
Documents ((a), (b), and (c) collectively, the "Default Collateral"); provided,
however, that any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable
only to the extent of any such Default Collateral. The provisions of this
Section 8.14 shall not, however, (a) impair the validity of the Indebtedness
evidenced by the Loan Documents or in any way affect or impair the Liens of the
Mortgages or any of the other Loan Documents or the right of Lender to foreclose
the Mortgages following an Event of Default; (b) impair the right of Lender to
name any Person as a party defendant in any action or suit for judicial
foreclosure and sale under any of the Mortgages; (c) affect the validity or
enforceability of the Note, the Mortgages or the
125
121
other Loan Documents; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment
of a receiver; (e) impair the right of Lender to bring suit for any damages,
losses, expenses, liabilities or costs resulting from fraud, material
misrepresentation, intentional misrepresentation, physical waste of all or any
portion of any Facility, or wrongful removal or disposal of all or any portion
of any Facility by any Person in connection with this Agreement, the Note, the
Mortgages or the other Loan Documents; (f) impair the right of Lender to obtain
the Recourse Distributions received by any Person; (g) impair the right of
Lender to bring suit with respect to any misappropriation of security deposits
or Rents collected more than one (1) month in advance; (h) impair the right of
Lender to obtain Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds due to Lender
pursuant to the Mortgage; (i) impair the right of Lender to enforce the
provisions of Sections 4.1(v) or 5.1(d) through 5.1(i), inclusive of this
Agreement, Section 2.8 of the Mortgage or the Environmental Guaranty even after
repayment in full by Borrower of the Indebtedness; (j) prevent or in any way
hinder Lender from exercising, or constitute a defense, or counterclaim, or
other basis for relief in respect of the exercise of, any other remedy against
any or all of the Collateral securing the Note as provided in the Loan
Documents; (k) impair the right of Lender to bring suit with respect to any
misapplication of any funds; or (l) impair the right of Lender to ▇▇▇ for, seek
or demand a deficiency judgment against any Person solely for the purpose of
foreclosing the Mortgaged Properties or any part thereof, or realizing upon the
Default Collateral; provided, however, that any such deficiency judgment
referred to in this clause (l) shall be enforceable only to the extent of any of
the Default Collateral. The provisions of this Section shall be inapplicable to
any Person if (i) any petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement
pursuant to federal or state law against Borrower shall be filed by or against
Borrower or consented to or acquiesced to by Borrower, (ii) if Borrower shall
institute any proceeding for the dissolution or
liquidation of Borrower, (iii) if Borrower shall make an assignment for the
benefit of creditors or (iv) if Borrower shall breach the representation and
warranty in Section 4.1(aa). Prior to the date on which the Difference and any
applicable hedging or interest rate management brokerage costs incurred by
Lender on the Stabilization Payment Date is paid to Lender, Lender's judgment in
any action or proceeding shall not be limited to the Default Collateral and the
Loan shall be fully recourse to the Borrower and the Parent.
Section 8.15 Exhibits Incorporated. The information set forth
on the cover, heading and recitals hereof, and the Exhibits attached hereto, are
hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as
if set forth in the body hereof.
Section 8.16 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee
of Lender's interest in and to this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgages and the
other Loan Documents shall
126
122
take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are
unrelated to the Loan, this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgages and the other
Loan Documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor, and no
such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by
Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this
Agreement, the Note, the Mortgages and other Loan Documents and any such right
to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any
such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.
Section 8.17 No Joint Venture or Partnership. Borrower and
Lender intend that the relationship created hereunder be solely that of borrower
and lender. Nothing herein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership,
tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor
to grant Lender any interest in the Mortgaged Property other than that of
mortgagee or lender.
Section 8.18 Waiver of Marshalling of Assets Defense. To the
fullest extent that Borrower may legally do so, Borrower waives all rights to a
marshalling of the assets of Borrower, and others with interests in Borrower,
and of the Mortgaged Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in
the event of foreclosure of the interests hereby created, and agrees not to
assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the
sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of
estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or
affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of any Facility
for the collection of the Indebtedness without any prior or different resort for
collection, or the right of Lender or Deed of Trust Trustee to the payment of
the Indebtedness in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.
Section 8.19 Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives
the right to assert a counterclaim, other than compulsory counterclaim, in any
action or proceeding brought against Borrower by Lender or Lender's agents.
Section 8.20 Conflict; Construction of Documents. In the event
of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of
the Note, the Mortgages or any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of
this Agreement shall prevail. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were
represented by counsel in connection with the negotiation and drafting of the
Loan Documents and that the Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle
of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same.
127
123
Section 8.21 Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower and
Lender hereby represent that they have dealt with no financial advisors,
brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to
indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims,
liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or arising
from a claim by any Person, that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower in
connection with the transactions contemplated herein. Lender hereby agrees to
indemnify and hold Borrower harmless from and against any and all claims,
liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or arising
from a claim by any Person, that such Person acted on behalf of Lender in
connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this
Section shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the
repayment of the Indebtedness.
Section 8.22 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall
be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same
instrument.
Section 8.23 Estoppel Certificates. Borrower and Lender each
hereby agree at any time and from time to time upon not less than fifteen (15)
days prior written notice by Borrower or Lender to execute, acknowledge and
deliver to the party specified in such notice, a statement, in writing,
certifying that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if
there have been modifications, that the same, as modified, is in full force and
effect and stating the modifications hereto), and stating whether or not, to the
knowledge of such certifying party, any Default or Event of Default has
occurred, and, if so, specifying each such Default or Event of Default;
provided, however, that it shall be a condition precedent to Lender's obligation
to deliver the statement pursuant to this Section, that Lender shall have
received, together with Borrower's request for such statement, an Officer's
Certificate stating that no Default or Event of Default exists as of the date of
such certificate (or specifying such Default or Event of Default).
Section 8.24 Payment of Expenses. Borrower shall, whether or
not the Transactions are consummated, pay all Transaction Costs, which shall

shall be modified and annulled as to Lender, so as to permit Lender to exercise
any and all of its rights and remedies, upon request of Lender made on notice to
Borrower and any other party in interest but without the need of further proof
or hearing. Neither Borrower nor any Affiliate of Borrower shall contest the
enforceability of this Section.
Section 8.26 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with
the Exhibits hereto and the other Loan Documents constitutes the entire
agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained
in this Agreement, the Exhibits hereto and the other Loan Documents and
supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the
parties.
Section 8.27 Dissemination of Information. If Lender
determines at any time to sell, transfer or assign the Note, this Loan Agreement
and any other Loan Document and any or all servicing rights with respect
thereto, or to grant participations therein or issue mortgage pass-through
certificates or other securities evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated
129
125
or unrated public offering or private placement, Lender may forward to each
purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant or investor in such
securities (collectively, the "Investor") or any Rating Agency rating such
securities and each prospective Investor, all documents and information which
Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Loan, Borrower, any
guarantor, any indemnitor and any Facility, which shall have been furnished by
Borrower, any guarantor, any indemnitor, or any party to any Loan Document, or
otherwise furnished in connection with the Loan, as Lender in its discretion
determines necessary or desirable.
Section 8.28 Limitation of Interest. It is the intention of
Borrower and Lender to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Accordingly,
if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law,
then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan
Document, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which
constitutes interest under applicable law that is taken, reserved, contracted
for, charged or received under any Loan Document or otherwise in connection with
the Loan shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest
allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited to principal by
Lender (or if the Loan shall have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower); and
(ii) in the event that maturity of the Loan is accelerated by reason of an
election by Lender resulting from any default hereunder or otherwise, or in the
event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that
constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount of interest
allowed by applicable law, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount of
interest allowed by applicable law, if any, provided for in the Loan Documents
or otherwise shall be cancelled automatically as of the date of such
acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore prepaid, shall be credited to
principal (or if the principal portion of the Loan and any other amounts not
constituting interest shall have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower.)
In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable
under any specific contingency exceeds the maximum amount allowed by applicable
law, Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law (a)
exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (b) amortize,
prorate, allocate and spread, in equal parts, the total amount of interest
throughout the entire contemplated term of the Loan so that the interest rate is
uniform throughout the entire term of the Loan; provided, that if the Loan is
paid and performed in full prior to the end of the full contemplated term
hereof, and if the interest received for the actual period of existence thereof
exceeds the maximum amount allowed by applicable law, Lender shall refund to
Borrower the amount of such excess, and in such event,
130
126
Lender shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any laws for
contracting for, charging or receiving interest in excess of the maximum amount
allowed by applicable law.
Section 8.29 Indemnification. Borrower shall indemnify and
hold Lender and each of its affiliates and their respective successors and
assigns (including their respective officers, directors, partners, employees,
attorneys, accountants, professionals and agents and each other person, if any,
controlling Lender or any of its affiliates within the meaning of either Section
15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Section 20 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (each, including Lender, an "Indemnified
Party") harmless against any and all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses
(including the reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel retained by
any such person) or liabilities in connection with, arising out of or as a
result of the transactions and matters referred to or contemplated by this
Agreement, except to the extent that it is finally judicially determined that
any such loss, claim, damage, cost, expense or liability resulted directly from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. If any
Indemnified Party becomes involved in any action, proceeding or investigation in
connection with any transaction or matter referred to or contemplated in this
Agreement, Borrower shall periodically reimburse any Indemnified Party upon
demand therefor in an amount equal to its reasonable legal and other expenses
(including the costs of any investigation and preparation) incurred in
connection therewith to the extent such legal or other expenses are the subject
of indemnification hereunder.
Section 8.30 Borrower Acknowledgments. Borrower hereby
acknowledges to and agrees with Lender that (i) the scope of Lender's business
is wide and includes, but is not limited to, financing, real estate financing,
investment in real estate and other real estate transactions which may be viewed
as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates and
(ii) Borrower has been represented by competent legal counsel and Borrower has
consulted with such counsel prior to executing this Loan Agreement and of the
other Loan Documents.
Section 8.31 Publicity. Lender shall have the right to issue
press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials describing
Lender's participation in the origination of the Loan or the Loan's inclusion in
any Securitization effectuated or to be effectuated by Lender. Borrower and
Parent shall have the right to issue press releases regarding the Loan, subject
to Lender's prior review and written approval not be unreasonably withheld.
131
127
Section 8.32. Recalculation of Loan Amount.
(a) On the Stabilization Date, Lender shall calculate
a new aggregate loan amount for Borrower (and new Allocated Loan Amounts for
each Facility) for the Principal Indebtedness then outstanding (the
"Recalculated Loan Amount") utilizing an underwriting cash flow methodology
(calculated by Lender in Lender's discretion) based upon the Underwriting NOI
Criteria and a debt service constant equal to the greater of the actual constant
and ten and 07/100 percent (10.07%) and a minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio
(calculated by Lender in Lender's sole discretion) of 1.35:1; provided, however,
if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall
have the right but not the obligation to calculate a new Loan Amount; and
provided, further, Lender's obligation to calculate a new Loan Amount is subject
to completion of Lender's due diligence with respect to each Facility including
receipt of the due diligence items identified in Article III hereof as of the
Stabilization Date.
(b) If the Recalculated Loan Amount is greater than
the Stabilization Date Loan Amount, then, provided that (i) no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, (ii) Lender determines in its discretion that
Borrower has as of the Stabilization Date (or the Stabilization Date Payment
Date, as applicable), satisfied all of the other conditions precedent set forth
in Article III and all other terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (iii)
Borrower has elected, in its sole and absolute discretion, to borrow the
Earn-Out Advance as evidenced by delivery of the Request for Advance specified
in Section 3.3(D), then Lender shall make the Earn-Out Advance on the
Stabilization Date Payment Date in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the
Recalculated Loan Amount over (ii) the Stabilization Date Loan Amount, but only
to the extent that the aggregate amount of the Loan after giving effect to the
Earn-Out Advance does not exceed the Maximum Facility Amount; and provided
further, however, that if Lender makes the Earn-Out Advance, Lender may, in
Lender's sole discretion, adjust the Allocated Loan Amount for any or all of the
Facilities as Lender determines in its reasonable discretion.
(c) If the Recalculated Loan Amount is less than the
Stabilization Date Loan Amount (the excess of the Stabilization Date Loan Amount
over the Recalculated Loan Amount, the "Difference"), then Borrower may, within
ten (10) Business Days after the Stabilization Date, notify Lender of the amount
which Borrower shall prepay on the Stabilization Date Payment Date, which amount
(the "Actual Prepayment Amount") shall equal the Difference. If Borrower fails
to provide such notice to Lender, the Actual Prepayment Amount shall be deemed
to equal zero. If the Borrower prepays the Actual Prepayment Amount on the
Stabilization Date Payment Date, Borrower shall also pay to
132
128
Lender on the Stabilization Date Payment Date any hedging losses and breakage
fees incurred by Lender. Any failure by Borrower to pay Lender the Actual
Prepayment Amount and any hedging losses and breakage fees incurred by Lender on
the Stabilization Date Payment Date shall constitute an immediate Event of
Default.
(i) If the Actual Prepayment Amount is zero or is less
than the Difference, and the Unpaid Excess Loan Amount (as hereinafter
defined) does not exceed the Amortizable Amount (as hereinafter
defined), then Lender may convert into Class B Equity Interests a
portion of the principal amount of the Loan in an amount (the "Class B
Amount") equal to the Unpaid Excess Loan Amount. As used herein, the
"Amortizable Amount" shall mean that amount which Lender determines can
be fully amortized within a five (5) year period, as calculated by
Lender in Lender's sole discretion, and using among other things, a
minimum debt service coverage ratio as determined by Lender (which
ratio shall be computed by (A) determining the product of seventy-five
percent (75%) and Lender's projection of Excess Cash Flow for a period
of time determined by Lender, and (B) dividing that product by Lender's
projection of the payments that would be due for such period of time in
respect of the Class B Amount). As used herein, the "Unpaid Excess Loan
Amount" shall mean the excess of the Difference over the Actual
Prepayment Amount. Lender (or its designee) shall receive Class B
Equity Interests in the amount of the Class B Amount pursuant to
documentation satisfactory to Lender in Lender's sole discretion, the
material terms of which are described on Exhibit D attached hereto, and
upon such conversion Lender (or its designee) shall be the "Preferred
Shareholder" in the Borrower. In addition to all other amounts due
Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender, in addition to any amounts set
forth in the first paragraph of Section 8.32(c) above, on the
Stabilization Date Payment Date, (x) an amount equal to any hedging
losses and breakage fees incurred by Lender that Borrower would have
been required to pay had Borrower prepaid the Loan in an amount equal
to the Class B Amount, and (y) a fee equal to two percent (2%) of the
Class B Amount. Any failure by Borrower to pay to Lender any hedging
losses and breakage fees incurred by Lender and the fee in connection
with any prepayment or conversion pursuant to this Section on the
Stabilization Date Payment Date shall constitute an immediate Event of
Default.
(ii) If the Unpaid Excess Loan Amount exceeds the
Amortizable Amount, Lender may, at Lender's option exercisable by
Lender in Lender's discretion and exercisable at any time, convert a
portion of the Loan as set forth in Section 8.32(c)(i) above, and in
addition to convert a portion of the principal
133
129
amount of the Loan (in an amount (the "Class C Amount"), not to exceed
the excess of the Unpaid Excess Loan Amount over the Amortizable
Amount, into Class C Equity Interests pursuant to the documentation
satisfactory to Lender in Lender's sole discretion, the material terms
of which are described on Exhibit F. If the Lender does not elect to
exercise the option described in this subparagraph, then Borrower shall
be required to prepay the Loan on the Stabilization Date Payment Date
in an amount equal to the Difference. If Lender exercises the option
set forth herein, in addition to the Class B Equity Interests which
Lender receives pursuant to clause (i) above, Lender (or its designee)
shall receive Class C Equity Interests in an amount equal to the Class
C Amount, and Warrants in Borrower in an amount calculated in
accordance with the formula described in Exhibit E. If Lender exercises
the option described in this subparagraph, Borrower shall pay to
Lender, in addition to any amounts set forth in Section 8.32(c)(i), on
the Stabilization Date Payment Date, (x) an amount equal to any hedging
losses and brokerage fees incurred by Lender that Borrower would have
been required to pay had Borrower prepaid the Loan in an amount equal
to the Class C Amount, and (y) a fee equal to two percent (2%) of the
Class C Amount. Any failure by Borrower to pay to Lender any hedging
losses and breakage fees incurred by Lender and the fee in connection
with any prepayment or conversion pursuant to this Section on the
Stabilization Date Payment Date shall constitute an immediate Event of
Default.
(d) All prepayments made pursuant to this Section shall be
applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.7.
(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary,
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and without in any way
limiting any other right Lender may have under any Loan Document, Lender shall,
in Lender's discretion, have the right in connection with the recalculation of
the Loan Amount pursuant to this Section to require the Borrower to (i) prepay
the Loan in full, or (ii) convert a portion of the Loan into Class B Equity
Interests or (iii) convert a portion of the Loan into Class C Equity Interests
and Warrants or (iv) do any combination of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, in Lender's
sole discretion.
(f) Any failure by Borrower to provide all annual financial
information that Borrower is required to provide pursuant to Section 5.1(q) when
due shall constitute an immediate Event of Default. Any failure by Borrower to
provide any other information reasonably requested by Lender in connection with
the recalculation of the Loan amount pursuant to this Section within ten (10)
Business Days after request therefor (provided
134
130
that Borrower could reasonably provide such information within such period)
shall constitute an immediate Event of Default.
(g) If Lender exercises any option or right to acquire equity
in Borrower pursuant to this Section, Borrower agrees (i) that the form and
substance of any such equity arrangements shall be documented, at Borrower's
expense, with documents, including, without limitation, the terms described in
Exhibit D, Exhibit E and Exhibit F, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender
in Lender's sole discretion, all such documents shall be executed within ten
(10) Business Days of receipt thereof from Lender and in no event later than the
Stabilization Date Payment Date, (iii) Lender (or its designee) shall be
admitted as the Preferred Shareholder on or before the Stabilization Date
Payment Date, and (iv) any breach of (i), (ii) or (iii) shall constitute an
immediate Event of Default. In addition, in connection with any such equity
arrangements Borrower shall and Borrower causes its affiliates to provide to
Lender any additional collateral to Lender to secure such arrangements,
including without limitation, equity pledges and guaranties, as Lender may
require in Lender's sole discretion.
(h) On the Stabilization Date Payment Date, the Borrower
shall take the following actions with respect to the Leased Facilities and the
Joint Venture Facility, (i) as to Joint Venture Facility, the Borrower shall
acquire from the Joint Venture fee simple title to the Joint Venture Facility;
(ii) for the Joint Venture Facility and the Leased Facilities, the Manager shall
execute a Management Agreement (in form reasonably acceptable to Lender) with
the Borrower; (iii) for the Joint Venture Facility and the Leased Facilities,
the Borrower and the Manager shall deliver a manager's subordination agreement,
in form reasonably acceptable to Lender; (iv) the Borrower shall terminate the
Operator Lease (other than the Operator Lease with respect to the Facility
located in Florida), as applicable; (v) the Borrower shall execute such
agreements including, but not limited to amendments to the Loan Documents as are
requested by Lender and consistent with the restructuring of the Loan such that
the Facilities are all owned by the Borrower and the Operator Leases (other than
the Operator Lease with respect to the Facility located in Florida) are
terminated; (vi) as to the Joint Venture Facility, the Borrower shall deliver to
Lender (A) mortgages, assignment of leases, assignments of management
agreements, UCC-1 financing statements all in forms acceptable to Lender in its
reasonable discretion and (B) endorsements to the Title Policy issued on the
Closing Date showing fee simple title in the name of the Borrower together with
endorsements covering the foregoing described financing documents; (vii)
Borrower shall deliver to Lender such opinions of counsel as Lender shall
reasonably request; and (viii) Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses
incurred by Lender in connection with the matters
135
131
described in this paragraph (which costs and expenses shall be subject to the
cap set forth in Section 2.13).
Section 8.33 Cross Collateralization. Without limitation to
any other right or remedy provided to Lender in this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, to the full extent
permitted under applicable law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (i)
Lender shall have the right to pursue all of its rights and remedies in one
proceeding, or separately and independently in separate proceedings which it, as
Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine from time to time,
(ii) Lender is not required to either ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ assets, sell Collateral in any
inverse order of alienation, or be subjected to any "one action" or "election of
remedies" law or rule, (iii) the exercise by Lender of any remedies against any
Collateral will not impede Lender from subsequently or simultaneously exercising
remedies against any other Collateral, (iv) all Liens and other rights, remedies
and privileges provided to Lender in this Agreement and in the other Loan
Documents or otherwise shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has
exhausted all of its remedies against the Collateral and all Collateral has been
foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon and (v) each Facility shall be
security for the performance of all of Borrower's obligations hereunder;
provided, however, (i) so long as the Joint Venture Mortgage is outstanding,
Lender shall be entitled to exercise its rights under the Joint Venture Mortgage
and the other Loan Documents executed by the Joint Venture only upon the
occurrence of an "Event of Default" under the Joint Venture Mortgage; and (ii)
with respect to any Leased Facility or the Joint Venture Facility, until the
Subsidiary has acquired equity interests in the related Operator or the Joint
Venture, Lender shall be limited in exercising its rights with respect to the
deposits in the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account and Capital Expense Sub-Account
as described in the first sentence of the last paragraph of Section 2.12(g).
Section 8.34 Matters Concerning the Operators and Joint
Venture.
(a) Transfers of Equity Interests in Operators and Joint
Venture. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Parent currently owns interests
in the Operators and Joint Venture and anticipates that the Subsidiary will
acquire the remaining interests in the Operators and the Joint Venture such that
by the Cut-Off Date the Parent and the Subsidiary own one hundred percent (100%)
of the Operators and the Joint Venture. The Parent and Subsidiary each has
covenanted in the Equity Pledge Agreements (A) to cause the Subsidiary to
acquire all of the interests not owned by the Parent in the Operators and Joint
Venture (each an
136
132
"Operator/JV Acquisition" and collectively, the "Operator/JV Acquisitions") no
later than the Cut-Off Date and (B) provide Lender with five (5) days prior
written notice before the consummation of the acquisition of any interests in
any Operator or the Joint Venture.
(b) Loan to Joint Venture. The Borrower shall lend to the
Joint Venture from the proceeds of the Closing the Allocated Loan Amount for the
Joint Venture Facility (less such Joint Venture Facility's pro rata portion of
the Transaction Costs). The Joint Venture's obligations to repay such loan shall
be evidenced by the Joint Venture Note. Pursuant to the Collateral Assignment,
the Borrower shall pledge the Joint Venture Note and the other Joint Venture
Loan Documents to the Lender as collateral security for the Loan Obligations. As
described in Section 2.10, the Joint Venture shall make all payments under the
Joint Venture Note into the Collection Account.
Section 8.35 Buy-Up. On the Stabilization Date Payment Date,
regardless of the amount of the Recalculated Loan Amount, Lender shall have the
option in Lender's reasonable discretion to change the amortization schedule and
to decrease the Loan Amount (after giving effect to the resizing in Section
8.32) in consideration for which Lender will agree to pay Borrower a buy-up
payment. All such changes shall be determined by Lender in Lender's discretion
and Borrower hereby agrees to be bound by any and all of such changes, provided
that such changes shall generally result in (i) an interest rate approximating
the Stabilization Date Interest Rate, (ii) an amortization schedule equal to the
300 months from the Stabilization Date Payment Date to the Maturity Date, (iii)
a Loan Amount (after giving effect to any changes in this Section 8.32) that
would result in an outstanding Principal Indebtedness at the Optional Prepayment
Date (assuming all payments are timely made) equal to the outstanding Principal
Indebtedness at the Optional Prepayment Date (assuming all payments are timely
made) as if none of the changes required by this Section 8.35 had been made, and
(iv) a buy up payment payable to Borrower equal to the excess of (a) the Loan
Amount on the Stabilization Date Payment Date (prior to giving effect to any
changes required by this Section 8.35) over (b) the Loan Amount on the
Stabilization Date Payment Date (after giving effect to any changes required by
this Section 8.35). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall not be entitled
to exercise the option described in this Section 8.35 if to do so would
adversely affect Parent's or Borrower's GAAP or tax accounting reporting.
Borrower shall not be required to pay any Transaction Costs incurred by Lender
in connection with this Section 8.35. Borrower hereby agrees to make any and all
amendments, modifications and other changes to the Loan Documents as required by
Lender in Lender's reasonable discretion in connection with this Section 8.35.

adjustments for:
(a) all Operating Expenses, including without
limitation, a management fee equal to the
greater of actual management fees or five
percent (5.0%) of Gross Revenue (provided,

forma adjustments to revenue and expenses shall be approved by Lender in
Lender's reasonable discretion and shall be subject to Lender's full due
diligence.
